very impressed with the blogging so far Luce - you could have a career as a travel writer!
Bryce Canyon - Land of the Hoodoos!
Trip Start
Aug 2007
Trip End
Aug 2007
Where I stayed
We went on then to Sunset Point, where we hiked on the Navajo Loop Trail, which goes right down through the hoodoos of the Silent City into the canyon, The trail was originally a loop through 100 foot canyon walls called Wall St, but the trail is now blocked off at the bottom, due to a big rockslide there last May, when a load of boulders fell, blocking the path. Lyn was gutted we couldn't go right through it. The descent was really eerie, we descended lower and lower, from over 8000 feet, right down, where it got much cooler. The only problem with going down......you have to go right back up! Tegs and I bravely yomped back up slowly, hearts beating fast, faces bright red, but we did it! Aching legs tonight though!
Lyn and Ioan headed back down another path then, down into another part of the Silent City, past a crazy famous hoodoo called Thor's Hammer, which looks like someones balanced a big boulder in a really stupid place!
We've taken hundreds of photos, but none do it justice. You'll just have to come out and see it for yourselves!
Grand Canyon North Rim tomorrow; more jaw dropping views!
Down memory lane
Hi Ho mad Evans'
YOu're practically retracing our trip back in 2001 step by step. We're getting very nostalgic and looking forward to our kids being big enough to doing it again. We can visualise it all. We walked up the river in Zion like you did and we stayed at Ruby's Inn that you visited.
One thing - how do you manage to visit so much with three hooligans (kidding) in tow and writing War on Peace on the laptop? last night we had two enties from you in the space of an hour!!

British Government pays Ł100,000 over Nerve Gas Death
Martin Croucher
The family of an ex-RAF pilot who died in 1950s nerve gas experiments at Porton Down military research centre won Ł100,000 in compensation from the government last week.
Twenty year-old Ronald Maddison died in 1953 after liquid sarin was dripped onto his arm in cold war-era chemical weapons experiments. For more than 50 years Mr Maddison's family have pressed the Ministry of Defence to apologise and account for his death. The settlement comes as the MoD accepts "gross negligence" on its part.
However Maddison's sister Lilias Craik told the BBC that she was pleased the battle fo justice was finally over but said that she would not forget the tragedy so easily.
"It is a great relief. I am still angry at what happened, but I am pleased it is over. I can't forget what they did and I can't forgive them. "The compensation will not make us rich but it does bring this to an end. They took his life and should be made to pay for it."
Little information surrounding the experiments in which Mr Maddison took part were disclosed following his death, being attributed to 'accidental death' through asphyxia; the government refused to answer questions on the young airman's case for forty years.
However, half a century later, new evidence came to light that prompted Wiltshire police to investigate further, reopening the inquest in 2002. In 2004 a judge ruled that Mr Maddison's death was unlawful killing.
It was found that liquid sarin was dripped onto the arm of Mr Maddison and five others after he was taken to a sealed chamber on May 6th 1953. It was twenty minutes before he was carried out of the chamber, and he died in a hospital just forty minutes after he was dosed with the nerve agent.
Mr Maddison's father was given a version of the events surrounding his son's death by the MoD, but told not to tell the rest of his family in the interests of national security. The BBC reported that all he was allowed to say publicly was that the death was "an unfortunate accident while on duty".
Ronald Maddison was ostensibly told that he was participating in research for a cure to the common cold, and that no harm would come to him.
During a hearing in 2002, ex-army ambulance driver Alfred Thornhill described how he saw Mr Maddison convulsing and foaming at the mouth after he was called to take him to the hospital.
"They just threw him onto the bed and gave him a big injection," he was quoted as sayinb by the BBC.
"It was a terrible atmosphere – they were all panicking. They couldn't handle what they were looking at."
The ruling may open the way for the claims of over 500 other ex-servicemen who took part in the experiments at Porton Down in the 1950s. Those who were used as 'human guinea pigs' for testing dangerous agents such as sarin or mustard gas, in particular, claim that they were duped into experiments that have had long-term damaging effects on their health.
Alan Care, the lawyer representing Mr Maddison case, told the Guardian that he hoped that the MoD has now developed a will to resolve "the other Porton Down claims". He told the BBC that the ruling had opened a way for them to pursue their claims through personal injury:
"They've got nowhere else to go. They've been calling for a judicial enquiry and that's always been refused. Now they can only pursue their claims for personal injury."
The experiments were conducted at Porton Down purportedly to develop defences against chemical or biological attack due to fears that the Soviet Union was developing the specialist weapons.
None of the scientists who originally took part in the experiment at Porton Down were alive at the time of the hearing, so could not be prosecuted.
The MoD said that they regretted "very much the unfortunate death of Ronald Maddison", adding that they were "extremely pleased an amicable settlement has been reached".
They made no comment on the possibility that 500 other claimants may soon seek multiple action against the department.

Jan. 22, 2007
BERKELEY - The California softball team was picked to finish in a sixth place tie according to the annual Pac-10 softball preseason coaches poll released on Monday by the conference office.
Both California and Washington garnered 18 points to earn the sixth place tie. Last season's NCAA Champion, Arizona, was picked to win the conference after collecting five first place votes and 47 points overall. UCLA was a close second, earning 45 points and three first place votes. Arizona State earned the third place nod with 35 points.
Oregon State was picked fourth with 32 points, followed by Stanford (fifth) with 21 points. Oregon rounded out the poll with eight points.
The conference set a record in 2006 with seven teams winning NCAA Regionals. Arizona, Arizona State, California, Oregon State, Stanford, UCLA and Washington all reached the Super Regionals last season, with the Wildcats, Sun Devils, Beavers, and Bruins marching on to Oklahoma City and the WCWS. The Pac-10's four representatives in the WCWS made up half the field -- the most of any conference.
Cal finished third in the conference standings last season. The Bears captured a conference championship in 2005, and finished fourth in the standings when they won the national title at the NCAA College World Series in 2002.
The Bears this season return seven position starters, including lone senior Alex Sutton. Sutton posted a .352 batting average last year and ranked second on the team in doubles (12) and RBI (36).
The 2007 squad also features seven freshmen (Brittany LaRosa, Shannon Houston, Christina Schallig, Marissa Drewrey, Vernae Sevilla, Bernice Masaniai and Taylor Kelly), four juniors (Julie Meyer, Erika Racklin, Jessica Moore, and Katie Vickers) and four sophomores (Lauren Frankiewicz, Morgan Siegel, Carly Winger, and Gina Leomiti).
2006 marked another banner season for the Golden Bears; they finished with a 48-14 mark, an appearance in the NCAA Super Regionals, and a No. 9 national ranking. Although denied an eighth straight trip to the College World Series, head coach Diane Ninemire has guided the Bears to an 855-398 record and 19 straight NCAA Regionals in 19 seasons.
The 2007 California softball schedule has the Golden Bears traveling throughout the country, facing 18 opponents that made postseason appearances in the 2006 season. Of those 18 opponents, 14 finished the season ranked in top-25 national polls (ESPN.com/USA Softball and USA Today/NFCA). The 2007 schedule also includes 15 home games at Levine-Fricke Field, including 11 Pac-10 Conference match-ups.
The Bears will travel to several tournaments, including the Campbell/Carter Classic in San Diego where they open the season against Kansas on Feb. 9. The Bears then return home for their first non-conference home game on Feb. 14 against San Jose State.

Arizona Cardinals
Karlos Dansby plans to take 'full advantage' of opportunity Arizona Cardinals are giving him
Sure, Karlos Dansby has stepped on the University of Phoenix Stadium field since leaving the Arizona Cardinals as a free agent in 2010, but returning as a member of the Miami Dolphins doesn't really count.
Dansby, who took his talents to South Beach after accumulating 558 total tackles, 25.5 sacks, 10 interceptions and nine fumble recoveries in six years with the Cardinals, bolted for the big dollars.
He played well in three seasons for the Dolphins, but neither he nor the Cardinals have made the postseason since his departure.
Dansby, 31, is excited to be back in the Valley.
"It's a great situation," he said. "Timing is perfect; everybody is excited. It's a new season."
The veteran linebacker was cut by the Dolphins, as they apparently felt his production was not commensurate to his salary.
However, he did tally a career-best 134 total tackles in 2012, which led the team. So, the linebacker-needy Cardinals were happy to bring 'Los back into the fold, albeit on a one-year deal.
"Like I never left," Dansby added. "It's real excitement to be back, and I'm blessed to have this opportunity.
"So I'm going to take full advantage of it."
How he will do that remains to be seen, as Dansby is not sure how the coaching staff plans on using him. At the very least, he's likely to start while Daryl Washington serves a four-game suspension to start the season.
"Whatever my role is going to be, I'm going to do it to the fullest," he said. "I'm going to have some fun doing it."

SNice-mitar -Scimitar Wing Clone...just couldn't help myself...sorry!- video & PLANS!
Always wanted to get into wing-type models, but never liked the looks of the stryker... Built a few funjet clones (Prime-Jet 8)- great flyers! Once I saw the Scimitar, I knew I had to have one, but it is well out of my budget...so... here goes!!! May add the thrust vectoring at a later point depending on how she flies...
Got the model done... prototype-done...maiden video -done (posted below) She flies!!! So, as promised, plans are below. I have also scaled them up to a 34" version for those that would like to use a traditional parkjet power system with a 6" prop. Plans are pretty freeform so you can put stuff wherever you like. I suggest building the airframe first and then cut areas for servos, motors, cooling vents, hatches, etc... be sure to post pics! Enjoy! Stats for the 28" prototype: WS: 28" KFm4 airfoil AUW: 11.4oz - 1000mah 3S lipo; 12.7oz - 1300mah 3S lipo Airframe minus batt: 8.4oz Bare airframe (unpainted, no electronics): 3.1oz Lipo: 1000 - 1300 3S lipo (25-30C) -- (I prefer the 1000mah 3S 30C) ESC: 30A (all I had available - min 20A; 25A to be safe) Servos: 2x9g (elevons); 2x5g (rudders) motor:2800KV outrunner Prop: 5043; will also try 5x5 speed Prop UPDATE: 6x4 - it's close, but it will fit between the rudders - this is my favorite prop - the acceleration is quick - she will shoot wherever the nose is pointed - much easier to get out of "sticky" situations... CONTROL THROWS (28" Version): These are my settings -- adjust to your liking!!! Note - I do not use dual rates on this model - only expo. Elevator throws are very aggressive at endpoints. Too much elevator sits her on her tail and reduces airspeed to near zero (see video). Be sure you have the thrust (or altitude) to get out of this! If not, I would strongly suggest reducing elevator throws. ELEVATOR: 3/4" up; 3/4" down -- 50% expo AILERON: 7/8" up; 1" down -- 35% expo RUDDER: 1-1/4" left/right -- 25% expo Explanation of 3-Stage wing profile:Below you will find a diagram detailing how I sanded the leading edge. The wing has a 3-stage leading edge profile. Not sure how much of a difference this makes - but it works for me! The theory behind the 3-stage sanding was to create reflex and improve stall characteristics for maneuverability. It seems to work wonderfully, but is untested b/c I never flew it without the 3-stage leading edge... Compilation Video w/ 6x4 prop!:
Maiden video - 1000 & 1300 lipos:
Since the maiden video, I have greatly reduced the elevator throws, and added additional support to the wing. I also now mount my batteries flat. In the maiden, I had the battery mounted sideways which was making the roll very sloppy. Roll is much more axial with the battery in the flat position. With the above adjustments, I can now knife-edge with rudder and a little bit of aileron input. Once I get some more stick time, I will post a short highlights video. ImagesView all Images in thread

Date: January 3rd, 2011 Article by: Joe Anderson (Hardware Reviewer) Edited By: Nathan Glentworth (Owner / Head Editor) Product was submitted by: Corsair <--CLICK FOR DEALS ON A CORSAIR GRAPHITE 600T IN THE UNITED STATES <--CLICK FOR DEALS ON A CORSAIR COMPUTER CASE IN CANADA
From Corsair
Building a Great-Looking, High Performance System Has Never Been Easier
The Graphite Series™ 600T makes it easy to build a world-class gaming system. With excellent cooling from the dual 200mm fans, eight PCI-E expansion slots to accommodate multiple graphics cards, and plenty of room for large, power-hungry components, the Graphite Series 600T can handle just about anything you can throw at it.
Mid-Tower Size, Full-Tower Features
The Graphite Series 600T is a mid-tower in height, but inside it's positively cavernous. Easily accommodate even the longest graphics cards in the industry due to the reconfigurable hard drive bays. The increased space behind the motherboard tray allows clean, uncluttered cable routing. Up to six hard drive caddies, each of which can accommodate SSDs and standard mechanical disks, sit below the four 5.25" tool-free optical drive bays. If that weren't enough, you can remove the top panel 200mm fan and install a 240mm radiator and dual 120mm fans for a quick watercooling upgrade.
Features for Builders
Corsair innovated cable routing with the Obsidian Series™ cases, and the Graphite Series features the same ingenious design. Pre-cut holes in the motherboard tray with rubber grommets and plenty of room behind the motherboard to route cables for a clean, uncluttered interior. The optical drive bays are tool-free, the side panels easily detach with the built-in latch mechanisms, and the integrated fan controller allows you to choose between quiet operation or maximum cooling performance.
Features include
Twin 200mm cooling fans with white LEDs for excellent cooling
Eight expansion slots provides you flexibility for multiple graphics card solutions
Unique cable routing holes guarantees you a clean and clutter-free installation
Integrated fan controller, for up to four fans, gives you the choice of noise vs. performance
Tool-free optical drive installation makes building your system faster than ever
CPU backplate cutout makes upgrading your CPU heatsink easy
2.5" and 3.5" hard drive compatibility for up to 6 drives — straight out of the box!
Two year warranty with Corsair's world-class customer service and technical support
About The Graphite Series
The Graphite Series provides full-tower features in a mid-tower sized case, with an emphasis on performance and style. Whether you are an expert or on your first build, the Graphite Series is designed from the ground up to provide you with an incredible building experience. The Graphite Series proves that a high-performance case can be highly functional and look good doing it.
From Joe
The 600T is indeed a mid-tower chassis, although just a bit longer and wider than most. Its steel core and plastic accents provide lots of storage and expandability options and a full-featured front panel I/O panel.
Corsair engineers have done an excellent job of incorporating the best features from the Obsidian series' cases into the 600T, including the excellent cable management scheme and fixtures. Tool-free features abound in the 600T and the side panels each sport a pair of latches for easy access to the interior goodies and the storage options are highly configurable, as we'll see a bit later.

Syndra redesign is up! UPDATE: Lux redesign is up!
Currently working on the placeholders for Evelynn's and Orianna's kits! Very little has been changed (the ultimate and the innate, respectively)--the biggest change is a move to a new champion that better encompasses the playstyles the kits create. I've been travelling all day, so you guys can expect them tomorrow!
I'm confused.. Why is he the Best DiIdo I mean there are thousands of different diIdos around the world of different shapes, sizes, textures and color. What makes this diIdo so special?
Itemsguy, have you ever played DotA 2 or HoN? The main reason why I say that is because looking at some of your reworks, you should probably see the kits of HoN's Monkey King and DotA 2's Spectre. I think you'd be pleasantly surprised

Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter thinks the release of Grand Theft Auto IV will drive PlayStation 3 adoption more than Xbox 360 buying, and he's not alone.
"I think PS3 'wins' this battle," Pachter told Reuters. He said that if sales of Take-Two's GTA IV come in at the high end of the 9-12.5 million unit estimates during 2008, the game will directly drive sales of two million additional PS3s this year, compared to one million Xbox 360s.
While the Xbox 360 standalone version of GTA IV will doubtless sell more units than the PS3 version due to the higher installed base the 360 commands, BMO Capital Markets analyst Edward Williams says some consumers may have been waiting for marquee titles like GTA IV before hopping on the PS3 bandwagon.
"So many people who owned the PS2 went into PlayStation family because of GTA. The release of GTA IV could expedite their decision to upgrade," he noted.
While Microsoft has vowed to back GTA IV - as if were a first party product - with a high-profile marketing campaign, Sony announced Wednesday the upcoming release of an official PS3 hardware bundle including a copy of the game for Europe, Australia and New Zealand.

Transfers under the following guideline. I've learned a long time ago you can't please everyone and I'm not going to try. For you who like to break the rules, don't waste your or mine time. If your request is outside my guidelines, I will ignore and delate your request.
Generation 1: your family -- Husband - wife - your children - son-in laws - daughter-in-laws - grandchildren.
Generation 2: your and spouse parents -- Father - Mother - aunts - uncles - 1st cousins - wives and hubands of aunts, uncles and cousins.
Generation 3: Grandparents - their siblings and their children -- huband and wife of siblings and children.
Generation 4: Great Gradparents - their siblings and their children - huband and wife of siblings and children.
NO transfers beyond the great-grandparents and NO transfers of Revolution Soliders or Civil War Soliders or Sailors.
This is a MUST!!! You have to tell me your RELATIONSHIP to the person you want transfered and PROVE if I shoud ask FOR proof. No relatonship...no transfer.
Don't waste my time with: I went school with...I do research for another person would you consider transfering...they were neighbors to my grandparents...I work with this person...they were my neighbors when I was a kid...just this once would consider breaking the rules...ect. ect. ect. If you are not related, forget it. My transfers go to family members who fall within the guide lines.
For you who think there should be no rules and should transfer every request that comes down the pipe, take it up with Find A Grave. They're the ones who set the rules.
CORRECTIONS: For you impatient persons who believe your request should be answered in a 24 hours period of time. Get Real! I may have 30 or 40 other requests before yours comes in. I do answered all corrections but it might take several day or weeks. I don't spent 24-7 at the computer. I know this is hard for you to believe but I do have a life outside the computer. I do have family and friends I spent time with, I have a part time job, yard ward, house keeping, grocery shopping, library research, visiting cemeteries for tombstones to photograph, searching cemeteries for requested tombstones and other chores that has to be do.
MY PERSONAL GOAL: My reason for joining Find A Grave is to presrve graves and their tombstones. That's where the bulk of my time on the computer goes, adding people and their tombstones. Corrections and tranfers are done when I can find extra time in the day. So if it takes me one or two months to answering your requests, so be it. Don't give me any guff, that if I can't keep up with the requests, I should transfer the memorials to someone who can. Get Real!! It won't happen!

Mary Ann/Nancy Pullins
I am currently researching the Pullins line, and found some inconsistencies on Ancestry.com with some people listing Loftus Pullins' (1780-1862) wife (1786-1841) as Mary Ann and others listing her as Nancy. When I looked for her on here I saw that you have both listed, and they have the same birth and death years. I see that you have a picture of Nancy's headstone but none of Mary Ann. Are these somehow two different people with two different headstones?
Thanks for any insight you can give!

Hi Richard,
I understand that "ALL" contributors have their personal lives and activities besides being computer bound. But you have to realize that since you create these memorials, it's your responsibility as caretaker to make edits and transfer requests as soon as possible. Find A Grave does have a 30 day policy and considers the "caretaker" as being inactive and will take other measures if necessary. Please reconsider on what you place in you personal bio and take care. All of us should be working together on keeping the memories alive instead of working on our egos. It's not about the numbers. If you can't keep up, stop or ask for help. I hope you don't find this message as insulting or anything, that's not my intent.

Memorial #49560934, Willis A. Aldrige
Hello Richard
Willis A. Aldrige was the husband of my aunt, Dolly F (West) Aldrige. Dolly was my father's sister, therefore my aunt. According to your transfer guidelines, this would be a second generation family member.
If you would transfer his Memorial to me, it would be greatly appreciated. I understand it may not happen immediately, and that's fine.
Thanks in advance!

A Real Gem
Ovid's words are truly magical. "Heroides" is like an ancient collection of emails and text messeges from mythology's famous individuals, but it is letters instead. My favorite letters are "Paris to Helen", "Helen to Paris", and "Briseis to Achilles". This book is great for those who like to read ancient works and mythology fanatics. Hopefully more and more people will read this collection because it is not as well known as Ovid's other works such as "Metamorphoses" or "Amores". It really is a gem in a treasury of the many works of Ovid.

Resonant Mie scattering from a layered sphere
Applied Optics, Vol. 27, Issue 23, pp. 4850-4855 (1988)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (722 KB)
The theory of Aden and Kerker is used to compute the resonant response of large layered spheres to an incident linearly polarized plane wave. Cases considered include hollow spheres and those with transparent and absorbing cores whose diameters range from zero up to that of the particle. Both core and layer resonances are studied. The results are presented as partial wave amplitudes, energy densities, and scattered light intensities for a typical resonant mode, TE39.

US 6269003 B1 Abstract An improved structure heat dissipater for computer central processing units (CPU) having heat sink grid elements perforated with through-holes. The structure of the present invention is comprised of a ventilated hood, heat sink grid elements, and a base plate. The ventilated hood has a plurality of vent holes formed in its top and two lateral surfaces that are aligned with the through-holes in the heat sink grid elements which are interlocked together into a stacked heat sink grid element assembly, thereby forming a honeycomb-like convectionary heat dissipating network of openings. As a result, when air is induced by a fan, air flows through efficiently and rapidly such that heat transfer and diffusion is accelerated from the upper, front, rear, left, and right surfaces, which enhances the overall rate of heat dissipation, effectively improves the removal of heat generated by the CPU, and increases fan performance. As such, the present invention maintains optimal CPU operating temperature and thereby increases computer application stability.
Claims(3) 1. An improved heat dissipater for a central processing unit (CPU) comprising:
a) a base plate configured to be mounted on the CPU;
b) a ventilated hood mounted to the base plate, the ventilated hood having an upper surface and two opposite lateral surfaces, an air intake opening through the upper surface, a plurality of top vent holes through the upper surface, and a plurality of side vent holes through each of the two opposite lateral surfaces, the side vent holes in lateral surfaces being mutually aligned; and,
c) a plurality of heat sink grid elements mounted on the base plate and located between the base plate and the upper surface of the ventilated hood and between the two opposite lateral surfaces of the ventilated hood, the heat sink grid elements being located adjacent to and spaced apart from each other, each heat sink grid element having a plurality of through holes in alignment with the plurality of side vent holes.
2. The improved heat dissipater of claim 1 wherein the ventilated hood has an inverted U-shaped cross-sectional configuration.
3. The improved heat dissipater of claim 2 further comprising:
a) at least one fastening slot formed in the side surfaces of the ventilated hood; and,
b) at least one fastening hook on the base plate located so as to engage the at least one fastening slot so as to attach the base plate to the ventilated hood.
Description 1) FIELD OF THE INVENTION The invention herein relates to an improved heat dissipater comprised of a ventilated hood and stacked assembly-type heat sink grid elements perforated with through-holes capable of efficient air flow and accelerated heat transfer that provides advantageous low temperature central processing unit (CPU) heat dissipation performance. 2) DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART The central processing unit (CPU) is the core component of a computer. Due to computer technology requirements and growth as well developments in integrated circuit technology, CPU execution speed and performance are constantly on the increase. Faster CPU speed results in the generation of greater amounts of heat and if CPU heat dissipation rates are not accelerated, computer operating stability is adversely affected. Therefore, to solve CPU overheating problems, the most direct and simple approach is the installation of a heat dissipation fixture or device onto the CPU and thereby maintain CPU execution stability. At present, most conventional heat dissipation devices consist of a fan and heat sink assembly, wherein the fan is screw fastened onto the heat sink, with the base plate of the heat sink mounted firmly against the CPU such that the high temperature generated by the operating CPU travels through the elements of the heat sink and, due to the air induced by the fan, becomes diffused and discharged to achieve heat dissipation performance. However, a conventional heat sink structure (as shown in FIG. 1) is typically comprised of a one-piece fabricated extruded aluminum heat sink elements 11 and heat sink element base plate 12, and a heat sink cover 10 having a air intake opening 101 formed in the top surface; due to limitations of molding and extrusion technology, the air resistance plane 111 of the heat sink elements 11 are of comparatively larger thickness, which not only results in greater obstruction to the fan-induced air flow, but also retards the rate of heat conductance and, furthermore, the heat dissipation trough 121 is wider, which reduces the number of heat dissipation elements and results in a smaller heat dissipation area; additionally, the heat sink cover 10 enshrouds the heat sink elements 11 such that heat can only emanate from the two ends at the front and rear, which negatively influences the heat dissipation rate of the heat sink and lessens fan performance. Furthermore, another kind of prior art variation on the market is a staggered fin heat dissipater structure in which, as illustrated in FIG. 2, the heat sink elements 14 are milled, the heat sink elements 14 are fastened or adhered to the base plate 15, and then the cover 13 is assembled over the heat sink. However, during fabrication, a separation area 141 is required in between each of the heat sink elements 14, which reduces the heat dissipation surface area and, furthermore, mold production is not simple and quality is difficult to control. With this kind of heat sink element 14, the air flow resistance plane is excessively large and the distances between the flat surfaces and the fan are too close, which results in obstructionary back pressure to the air induced by the fan and compromises fan performance and, furthermore, no improvements to the shortcomings of such extruded aluminum fabricated heat sinks have been introduced. In view of the various shortcomings in structural design of the conventional heat dissipation devices as well as the resulting utilization and stability drawbacks, the inventor of the invention herein, based on considerable experience in the electronic hardware production and technology, conducted research to find solutions to the said shortcomings which following continuous research and improvement culminated in the successful development of the improved structure heat dissipater of the invention herein, which is capable of collectively eliminating all the shortcomings and drawbacks of the prior art. The improved structure heat dissipater of the present invention utilizes one-piece punch fabricated heat sink grid elements that are thinner than conventional extruded aluminum and milled heat sink elements and capable of being stacked assembled, with the air flow resistance plane also being of diminished thickness to reduce obstruction to air induced by a fan as well as impedance due to the production of back pressure; furthermore, a higher number of heat sink elements can be positioned in a given area compared to the prior art structures to significantly increase the heat transfer surface contact area and, furthermore, through-holes are formed in each of the heat sink grid elements, with the pattern of through-holes aligned with the vent holes in the two lateral surfaces of the ventilated hood to form a honeycomb-like convection passages, thereby enabling the fan-induced air to flow through efficiently and reducing flow resistance, while causing the heat emanated by the CPU to ascend rapidly and be dissipated and discharged from four surfaces, which not only provides for more optimal heat conductance efficiency, but also enables the heat sink elements to achieve optimal heat dissipation, thereby enhancing fan performance and providing an effective solution to overheating problems resulting from higher CPU operating speeds. Therefore, the primary objective of the invention herein is to provide an improved heat dissipater utilizing heat sink grid elements perforated with through-holes and capable of being stacked into a heat sink element assembly; the through-holes are aligned with vent holes in a ventilated hood, thereby forming a honeycomb-like heat conducting network of convection openings such that when air is induced by a fan, the air flow is efficient and rapid and, furthermore, heat transfer from the surfaces is accelerated upward and out through the four surfaces at the front, rear, left, and the right, which enhances the heat dissipation rate and quickens heat dissipation performance. As such, the structure of the present invention conducts away CPU-generated heat and effectively dissipates it to increase computer utilization stability. To enable a further understanding of the technological means and structural features that allow the most preferred embodiments of the present invention to achieve the objectives, the brief description of the drawings below are followed by the detailed description of the invention. FIG. 1 is an exploded drawing of a conventional heat dissipation device. FIG. 2 is an exploded drawing of another conventional heat sink element assembly. FIG. 3 is an exploded drawing of the invention herein. FIG. 4 is an isometric drawing of the invention herein. Referring to FIG. 3, the assembled unit of the improved structure heat dissipater of the invention herein is comprised of a ventilated hood 16, heat sink grid elements 17, and a base plate 19, wherein the ventilated hood 16 an inverted U-shaped having an air intake opening 163 disposed in the upper surface and a plurality of top vent holes 161 formed along the two adjacent lateral extents and, a plurality of side vent holes 162 are formed in a random but mutually aligned arrangement through the two lateral surfaces to further increase external air contact and confluence. One or more fastening slots 164 are formed on the bottom edges of the lateral surfaces to provide for conjoinment. Heat sink grid elements 17 are of one-piece punch fabricated construction and are structurally thinner than conventional heat sink elements, with an interlocking lip 173 disposed along the bottom edge capable of front-to-back attachment such that when the heat sink grid elements 17 are stacked together to build a heat sink element assembly 18, the total number of heat dissipation elements which can be included the said assembly is more than that of conventional heat sink. As such, there are more complex heat conductance contact regions that yield a larger overall heat dissipation surface area capable of accelerating the diffusion of heat. The heat sink grid element air resistance plane 172 is of minimized thickness to reduce flow-obstructive air turbulence during fan induction though the air intake 163. A plurality of though-holes 171 are formed in the heat sink grid elements 17, with the through-hole 171 pattern matching the structural arrangement of the side vent holes 162 of the ventilated hood 16, thereby forming a honeycomb-like configuration in which the said holes are conventionally aligned. Base plate 19 is a flat planar component having a top surface that accommodates the adhesion of the bottom sections of the heat sink grid elements 17 and one or more fastening hooks 191 are disposed along the two lateral end surfaces that are inserted into the fastening slots 164 of the ventilated hood 16 to achieve conjoinment. The underside of the base plate 19 is tightly installed onto a central processing unit (CPU) by means of clip component (not shown in the drawings). Referring to FIG. 4, the heat sink grid elements 17 of the invention herein are stacked together in consecutive order into a heat sink grid element assembly 18 and then adhesively mounted onto the base plate 19 and covered with the ventilated hood 16 such that after conjoinment to the base plate 19, the through-holes 171 of the heat sink grid elements 17 are in convectional alignment with the side vent holes 162 of the ventilated hood 16 in a honeycomb-like arrangement. Therefore, when heat is generated by a CPU, the high temperature current is transferred from the base plate 19 to the heat sink grid elements 17, where it is rapidly absorbed and diffused by the complex heat conductance contact regions and, due to the through-hole 171 design of the heat sink grid elements 17 which naturally form a honeycomb-like perforation pattern, heat diffusion occurs more efficiently. At the same time, as external air is continuously drawn in through the air intake opening 163, the honeycomb-like convection hole arrangement of the heat sink grid elements 17 permits the passage of an accelerated and unimpeded air flow which, in conjunction with the external air contact and confluence enabled by the top vent holes 161 and the side vent holes 162 of the ventilated hood 16, causes the heat to both ascend and become diffused out of four surfaces, thereby providing greater heat dissipation performance. In summation, since the improved heat dissipater of the invention herein is an innovation of reasonable refinement that not only provides excellent practicality, but is also of an innovative and original design in terms of structural-spatial configuration. The invention, features heat sink grid elements 17 with through-holes 171 constructed utilizing punch fabrication technology that obviously increases computer CPU heat dissipation efficiency, is a superior development that significantly surpasses the prior art technology; and, is progressive in that it effectively improves upon the shortcomings of conventional heat dissipation devices.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Holy Canuck, collectors
Canadian comic-book aficionados raising funds to reprint classic series
It's a good time to be a Canadian comic-book hero — especially if your exploits haven't seen print for roughly 70 years.
Most readers alive today likely don't know who Brok Windsor or Johnny Canuck are. But as far as two Canadian comic-book experts are concerned, that's OK. A year ago most people hadn't heard of Nelvana of the Northern Lights, either -- and they snapped up the first-ever reprint collection of her adventures.
American publisher IDW will also be printing Nelvana -- an Inuit superheroine who debuted during the Second World War several months before Wonder Woman -- for a wider North American release this fall.
Hope Nicholson and Rachel Richey were behind the successful Kickstarter fundraising campaign in 2013 to collect, clean up and publish the entire run of Adrian Dingle's Nelvana. Their goal was $25,000; they raised more than $54,000. A thousand hardcover editions and 1,000 more in paperback were published, the latter of which sold out.
Not bad for a heroine few remembered.
Nelvana, like a host of other Canadian comic-book heroes, was created after U.S. comics were deemed "non-essential" imports under Canada's War Exchange Conservation Act in 1940. No more Superman, Batman or Captain Marvel for Canadian kids -- so Canadian publishers stepped in and a homegrown comic-book industry was born.
The comics are often called the Canadian Whites since, due to colour printing costs, the interiors were usually in black and white.
Now, Nicholson and Richey are each spearheading separate reprint collections of other heroes from Canada's golden age of comics. Nicholson, who grew up in Winnipeg but now lives in Toronto, is collecting the exploits of Brok Windsor, an action hero in the vein of Flash Gordon. Richey, from Toronto, is compiling the adventures of Johnny Canuck, Canada's answer to Captain America.
Brok Windsor was a medical doctor whose adventures were set in Tarqua, a magical island in the Canadian wilderness. His compatriots were the giants Torgon and Starra, and Windsor became a giant himself. Nicholson describes it as a mix of sci-fi, fantasy and western.
The character was created by John Stables, who emigrated from Great Britain and grew up in Winnipeg, where he worked as an illustrator. One of his jobs was illustrating the pulp serials in The Country Guide magazine. He later moved to Vancouver and created Brok Windsor for Maple Leaf Publishing. His adventures ran from 1944-46.
Nicholson says that in addition to Stables' Winnipeg ties, the character may have been inspired by a Winnipegger. According to Stables' son, there was an actual Brock Windsor, who lived here and went on to fight in the Second World War. Nicholson is searching for more information on him.
As for why she chose Brok Windsor, an obscure hero among already nearly forgotten characters, she says it was thanks to seeing him in Lost Heroes, a comic-book documentary on which she was associate producer.
"I didn't know anything about this character or series aside from the fact it was from Vancouver and it looked really nice," Nicholson says.
Maple Leaf Publishing's roster of heroes wasn't as well-known as Bell Features', which included Nelvana and Johnny Canuck. After working on the Nelvana reprint, Nicholson says, "I wanted to challenge myself."
Richey is collecting the adventures of Johnny Canuck -- a hero perhaps more familiar if only because the name was associated with personifications of Canada before Leo Bachle created the character at 16 for Bell, based out of Toronto.
"Johnny Canuck is a character that many Canadians know whether they realize it or not," says Richey, who was also a researcher for Lost Heroes. "He's got so many incarnations and just the name 'Canuck' is so identifiable to Canadians. It's who we are, and that's what Johnny was and is, the Canadian spirit! So I think Canadians, in general, would be most excited to read his adventures."
Johnny Canuck is not to be confused with Captain Canuck, the costumed superhero created by Ron Leishman and Richard Comely in Winnipeg in the 1970s.
Though possessing no superpowers, Johnny Canuck fights the Axis powers as an RCAF pilot. In one issue he storms Adolf Hitler's headquarters and goes toe-to-toe with the Fuhrer. In another he duels a Japanese soldier determined to prove that sumo is superior to Johnny's "Canadian boxing."
Richey says part of his appeal is what he embodied.
"He was relatable since he wasn't super, he faced the same problems Canada faced but he was seemingly able to do more about them. He was quick and clever and brave. He fulfilled the desires of many Canadians, which made him the national pride and a national treasure."
Of course, a patriotic concept isn't enough, even during wartime. Of Bachle's work, Richey says, "Leo's storytelling is some of the best of the golden age. He captivates audiences with his words, one exciting event following another, a roadblock here, a capture there, and always an escape. Leo's artwork is consistent to say the least, although later in the books he experiments with a bigger brush stroke."
For Nicholson, the superb art of Brok Windsor is also distinct. "He had very strong lines," she says. "It's definitely some of the best art I've seen in the Canadian golden age but also the American golden age, too." She adds that Stables later had help from fellow Maple Leaf artist and cartoonist Shirley Fortune with the artwork on the series.
The comics are still products of their time though. Johnny's foes were Canada's wartime enemies, and the Germans and Japanese were not portrayed sympathetically. And while one of Brok Windsor's allies is Torgon, a smart, capable aboriginal man from a futuristic society, the character was born of a Euro-Canadian mindset that exoticized Canada's wilderness.
Both Richey and Nicholson face the task of tracking down the best-quality versions of the comic pages for the respective reprints. Nicholson had some success in Winnipeg, as a local collector has some issues of Better Comics, in which Windsor appeared. She plans to scan some of the pages in his collection for use in the reprint.
Richey says the main difficulty is getting a clean image of each page. "The actual pages were printed on coarse newsprint which didn't age well and was pretty unrefined, which results in a lot of dirt on those scans."
Whether the public gets a chance to read the new collections depends on successful fundraising campaigns for each. Richey's Kickstarter for Johnny Canuck began on July 28, and Nicholson's Kickstarter for Brok Windsor began on Friday. Richey's has until Aug. 31, and Nicholson's until Sept. 29, to raise the funds to cover scanning, editing, printing and distributing the collections.
Will Brok escape the grotesque monsters of Tarqua? Will Johnny prevail over the Germans and Japanese? And will both heroes find a new audience in the 21st century? As in any good comic book cliffhanger, readers -- and donors -- will find out next month.

VIEWS: 153 PAGES: 2 CATEGORY: Project Management POSTED ON: 8/6/2008
This is an example of forming a partnerships. This document is useful in forming a partnerships.
Learning Log APPENDIX 6 Forming the Partnership Group One of the stated aims for holding the Have Your Say day was to recruit users to a User Partnership Group. On the evaluation sheets we had 8 people who expressed an interest in being involved in developing services in the form of a group. When we wrote out with the Executive Summary and stating when the first meeting would be we had responses from more people. We spent the first meeting explaining what the purpose of the group would be and agreeing our Statement of Purpose. The Lead Nurse had contacted CSC National Manager for User Involvement and had obtained information from her. We talked through the action plan and what progress had been made against it. Some of the people who attended saw it as an extension of the Have Your Say day and wanted to talk again about their experiences. The Group wanted to meet quarterly and we set meetings for the whole year. The Lead Nurse left and there was a six month gap before the replacement started. The 2 of us left organizing the group were struggling for what to put on the agenda. Reflecting back on what we did I realise we had not planned what we were going to do with the Group. We had not looked beyond creating the Group. We were pleased to have formed a Group with over twelve members. Our Strategy had been to create a group and involve people in service delivery. We had not taken on board the need for training and putting the users in the driving seat. We continued setting the agenda and asking them questions and to comment on information but it was not true partnership working. Having been involved in the locality group which followed a strategy for developing the group having recruited members from a user event in the same way that we did I have seen the differences. Our Strategy stopped at the creation of the group the network's strategy was only just started. Members of the Group were told that they needed to hold the key posts. At the first meeting it took some persuasion for someone to take the role of Chair. CancerVoices training which was two full days a month apart was organized for users and health care professionals. I attended the training. This enabled the group to bond and users gained confidence in tackling issues and dealing with health care professionals. The health care professionals gained an understanding on how to involve users. During the training areas of concern were highlighted and these were prioritized to form areas of work. This Group meets monthly and now has a user as vice chair, note taker and treasurer. One of the key pieces of learning from the training was the ice breaker – people introduce themselves by their first name and a hobby. This creates a friendly environment because there are usually some humorous remarks which relax people. At the first meeting of the partnership group the lead nurse chairing asked the group to talk to the person next to them about what they would do if they won the lottery that evening. This was a bad topic Learning Log APPENDIX 6 to choose because they all came back with comments such as money not being important without good health. The meeting started on a negative note. We have taken this learning on board in PUG and have got the users to identify areas of work to take forward which they must drive. The members of our group who are also members of the network group and who have undergone the training are very pro-active and take projects forward. We must be careful not to overload these people but encourage them to motivate others. There are other members who seem only interested in attending the quarterly meetings but do not want to take forward any work streams. Although these people are helpful at commenting on patient literature and questionnaires and always do so promptly and we would not want to lose them. Whether they would be different if motivated correctly at the start cannot be known. When interviewed for Peer Review they demonstrated great commitment to the Trust and were happy to be involved. Some of them did state that they were part of the Group because they wanted to give something back to the Hospital. I was concerned that the meetings need to be more frequent than quarterly although this would be addressed if there were sub group meetings in between. Most of the Health Care Professionals do not want to work Saturday but this is the most convenient day for the users some of whom work during the week. Learning from our mistakes in developing the PUG in the beginning we feel we are now on the right track but need more new members who will be actively involved from the start. We must ensure that the Group is user driven with them setting the agenda. The advantage that our Group has over the locality groups is that there is an awareness among the HCPs of how things are structured and done within the Trust and linking to the Centre which network facilitators would not have. We are aware of what can be tackled. Bigger issues can be linked back into the locality group and up to network level which gives a more powerful voice.
