Debate Revived: Low-Carb Or Low-Fat Diet?
By editor
Is a calorie just a calorie? Science writer Gary Taubes says no. In a study published last week in the Journal of the American Medical Association, diet researchers reported that patients on a low-carb diet kept weight off longer than those on a low-fat diet, re-introducing a long-standing debate.

Eurostyle Agnes Adjustable Height Dining Table Set
huong from Kennewick, WA– Verified Buyer
It around my granite table island, look so modern. All my friends love to sit on it,drink ,eat ,talk together on weekend
Great stools
Sandi from Lincoln Univ PA– Verified Buyer
Ordered 4 of these in orange - great pop of color for kitchen island. Easy assembly and comfortable but probably not for very tall folks. Very pleased with the purchase.
Great for adults and some children!
Carla A. Lee Stucky from Philadelphia, PA– Verified Buyer
These chairs are very easy to put together! I did them myself! They adjust to your favorite counter height w/o much trouble. They give my new kitchen a very clean, modern look as they shine, don't take up much room at all, and are lightweight. It takes a little practice though, learning how to climb on and off of the stool as the seat will rise up when you stand, and sink a little when you sit down. I would not recommend sitting young children in chairs that have been raised to their highest height.

The neighbors are jealous )
Betty from Florida
I've gotten so many compliments on this table. In fact, I think the neighbor is a little jealous and might end up getting one herself. I love the table. I also purchased the matching bar stools. I wasn't exactly sure what the tabletop was made out of and I was afraid it would scratch, so I just purchased some placemats and trimmed them to size. It's just perfect!

Richard from Rathdrum, ID– Verified Buyer
Just like the picture and the description. Only slight issue is I tend to slide a little forward on the seat.
pro's and con's
Karen from Salem, OR– Verified Buyer
Easy assembly. One stool arrived damaged but was easily and quickly replaced. Adjusts easily. Seat is somewhat shallow. Color is very rich. We are very pleased overall.
Bar/counter stool
Patricia from Baltimore, MD– Verified Buyer– Top 1000 Reviewer
Very nice and comfortable. Not for long term sitting and doing work; but great to sit and have a meal, read the paper, or have a drink. Not recommended for large people. Some large friends found it very uncomfortable. I would still purchase it again for myself.

Bright orange adds a pinch of color.
Bonnie from Saint Charles, IL– Verified Buyer
If you are hefty in the behind these chairs are too snug. They are perfect for children and people under 200 pounds. I love them. Comfy. Wish they were roomier for larger people.
adjustable bar stool
Madeleine from New York, NY– Verified Buyer
The stool was easy to assemble. It is very functional and I had no problem with it. It looks very modern and is useful near the kitchen island.

On Sunday, February 8, the Occupation bulldozers began clearing the way for the Wall's path in the village of Beit Ur Fouqa, located in the western Ramallah District. Confrontations between the people of the village and the Occupation Forces started when the Occupation Forces placed their construction gear and machinery on the village's road in order to begin the Wall's foundation.
On the occasion of the Hearing on the Wall at the International Court of Justice in The Hague, PENGON/ Palestinian Anti-Apartheid Wall Campaign calls upon all groups, networks and movements to raise their voice against this crime and denounce the illegal Wall…
As a national and international call by the Palestinian Anti-Apartheid Wall Campaign, February 21-23 will mark worldwide solidarity with the Palestinian call for justice in the case of the Apartheid Wall being built inside the West Bank. In an attempt to raise greater awareness worldwide, and to highlight the importance of the case, popular hearings that will detail the illegality of the Wall will be held in various cities worldwide.

Kiernan did an article with BuzzFeed awhile back, and this is what she had to say about her departure.
"Mad Men was such a huge part of my life, and I adore the character Sally, and I don't really think there's anyone like her because she's original," the 15-year-old actor, who was 8 when she was cast on the groundbreaking AMC series, told BuzzFeed News in a phone interview. "We've seen her grow and change and evolve over time and really become a strong, independent person."
Read the rest of the article here!

An abridged version of the classic Malgudi Schooldays with Swami and his friends is sure to hold your interest to the very end.
Boys will be boys — be it in Chennai, Mumbai, Delhi or even pre-independent India's Malgudi. This world-famous quaint fictional town in Karnataka is home to the all-time favourite bunch of boys who go by the name Swami and Friends created by author R.K. Narayan.
Puffin Classics' Malgudi Schooldays brings you a 'slightly abridged' version of the original novel — Swami and Friends along with two additional chapters borrowed from Malgudi Days and Under the Banyan Tree, but with the essence intact. Swami is just like any other 10-year-old who has his own share of problems to deal with like making friends with the new rich boy in town — Rajam, while not offending his not-so-cerebrally-blessed brawny friend Mani and putting together a functional cricket team — the Malgudi Cricket Club.
Adding to his woes are the fanatical scripture teacher, the ever-evasive arithmetic, an indecipherable letter from Binns asking the MCC to 'remit 25 per cent with the order and the balance against the VPP of railway receipt' ("Even a BA cannot understand this letter.") and a freedom demonstration.
At the end of it, all the sub-plots come together to put Swami in a spot right before his big match against the neighbouring Young Men's Union, making him run away from home swearing never to return. What happens is up to you to find out after reading this classic.
Like Shashi Deshpande states in her introduction, this is the kind of book that will make you think 'Hey, that has happened to me!' or 'Yes, yes, so true' when you read about Swami's inability to write in straight lines in an unruled sheet of paper or the way he questions his grandmother at the end of his narration about Rajam's acts of bravery — "Let me see. How many tigers came upon how many?"
The chapters are accompanied by illustrations by the author's famous cartoonist brother R.K. Laxman with the illustrations and the language being as simple as the characters themselves. Also coming as a bonus are additional information in the final few pages of the book about the author, his brother, the television serial adaptation of the novel and more. There are also some fun activities that you can indulge in after each info bit like making up names of fictional places and drawing a map of Malgudi based on the information given in the book.
MALGUDI SCHOOLDAYS by R.K. Narayan, Puffin Classics, Rs. 199
An excerpt:
'Granny, when Rajam was a small boy, he killed a tiger.'
'Indeed! The brave little boy!'
'You are saying it just to please me. You don't believe it.'
Swaminathan started the story enthusiastically: Rajam's father was camping in a forest. He had his son with him. Two tigers came upon them suddenly, one knocking down the father from behind. The other began chasing Rajam, who took shelter behind a bush and shot it dead with his gun. 'Granny, are you asleep?' Swaminathan asked at the end of the story.
'No dear. I am listening.'
'Let me see. How many tigers came upon how many?'
'About two tigers on Rajam,' said Granny.
Swaminathan became indignant at his grandmother's inaccuracy. 'Here I am going hoarse telling you important things and you fall asleep and imagine all sorts of nonsense. I am not going to tell you anything more. I know why you are so indifferent. You hate Rajam.'
'No, no, he is a lovely little boy,' Granny said with conviction, though she had never seen Rajam. Swaminathan was pleased. Next moment a new doubt assailed him. 'Granny probably you don't believe the tiger incident.'
'Oh, I believe every word of it,' granny said soothingly.

I just love the fabric and comfort of these Isaac Mizrahi PJs. I purchased the orange colour in a size 2X, because I wanted a looser fit. However, the fit is true to size.The detail of the V neckline looks so pretty and stylish. The length is fabulous. The colours are so cheerful and uplifting. I have purchased several other PJs from Isaac Mizrahi and have been totally happy with my purchases. These PJs would be lovely on all ladies.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Building Bridges is a non-denominational preschool founded and run by a team of passionate and highly experienced administrators/teachers for 2- to 4-year-old children serving Brooklyn Heights/Dumbo/Downtown Brooklyn and beyond. They offer the classic activities like circle time, singing, dancing, arts, and storytelling in a small by intent setting. They also do cooking classes, music classes and yoga each week. The school has a private outside area where kids will not only be composting and growing plants but playing with the elements on water-tables and sand-tables.
Location: Congregation Mount Sinai at 250 Cadman Plaza West
Ages: 2 to 5 years
Curriculum: Building Bridges provides a safe and nurturing preschool environment that stimulates the physical, social, emotional, and cognitive development of children. A blend of academic skills, personal knowledge, and social awareness enables children to learn to the fullest of their abilities, preparing them for further education and lifelong learning.
Outdoors space: yes
Two's - 3 mornings (Monday, Wednesday & Friday), 2 mornings (Tuesday,Thursday).
Three's - 3 mornings (Monday, Wednesday & Friday), 2 mornings (Tuesday,Thursday) or 5 mornings (Monday through Friday) - extended days until 2:45pm is also available.
PreK - 5 mornings (Monday through Friday) with an extended day option to 2:45pm.
SUMMER CAMP - Building Bridges also offers summer camp for children ages 2 to 5 years. All admissions information to include summer camp can be found on our website.
Building Bridges PreK curriculum is designed to develop language and early literacy skills in the context of rich content of math, science, social studies, social-emotional development, the arts and physical development. Our classroom and its curriculum are designed to support and encourage whole group, small group and individual student/teacher interactions and to support independent and guided activities. Our strong and coherent program enables students to become lifelong learners who are confident, competent, and intellectually curious.
I have been teaching preschool for over 11 years. My philosophy about teaching these incredible people is to concentrate more on the process than the product. To make learning fun and school place where they want to go to everyday. I love to do physical activities outside with the children, sing, dance, and do projects as well. I teach through games and the children learn new math skills and reading readiness. We garden and we learn how a seed germinates. I have always felt honored to be able to teach and be with these young children who teach me as much as I am imparting on them. I enjoy my job and will always get to know each child as an individual with respect, nurturing, and a lot of fun.
Tami Piccione - PreK head teacher - Building Bridges
"Why we chose Building Bridges as a Pre-K program for our son/daughter"
We chose to send our son to Building Bridges Preschool because we knew the teachers and staff would be able to create a nurturing and safe learning environment, based on our experience with them last year at Linden Tree. Another factor we considered in choosing the school was the smaller class size and student to teacher ratio. Our son loves his teachers and comes home excited to tell about us what he is learning at school. We are very happy with our decision in choosing Building Bridges, and feel lucky our son is having such a positive start as he prepares for kindergarten and beyond. Bee and Peter Benchimol, Mom and Dad to James
My husband & I chose Building Bridges for our twin sons pre-k experience because we knew first hand how dedicated, patient & engaging the teachers were. We are pleased with the curriculum & that our boys are encouraged & challenged in a caring atmosphere which nurtures creativity & diversity. Heather and Matt Galle, Mom and Dad to twins Charlie and Presley
We have been party of the Building Bridges family since 2010 and couldn't be happier. We visited other pre-schools in the area, and were so impressed with the care and professionalism of the teachers and staff for early childhood education. When I visited the school on tour, I knew from that moment that Building Bridges and their staff would provide the quality of education and social/emotional development which is so critical at this age. Our older son attended and had the easiest transition to Kindergarten. I credit the top-notch education he received from the Building Bridges staff. Our daughter is there now and loves to pretend she is a teacher at home and gives us projects - I know she is also valuing her time there. Francine Rosado-Cruz and Jason Cruz, Mom and Dad to Lily

HELP - Glass Deck Railings - Dead Birds
andynhOctober 23, 2010
I just bought a new house, and deck has glass paneled railings, so as not to obstruct water views. Day one I noticed 2 dead birds on the deck, from flying into the glass. Cleaned them up, and 30 minutes later another one. Now I have "X's" of blue painters tape on the glass, which obviously cannot be a permanent solution. Any ideas?

Re: One Trick Pony
One at a time. for example the any Mac is tiny volume compared to iPhone and iPod is nearly dead.
There is no breadth of product range.
OSX is essentially free. It's not a real product like MS Windows, never has been.
IiTunes is a service to monitise the iProducts.
The Mac Server line is dead. Mac OSX will be replaced by ARM based iOS iBook Mac Air look alike as soon as they decide that gives more control (iTunes only source) and profit.
Apple have no loyalty to users. Apple fans really don't get it. I'm familiar with Apple since the original Apple II.

How could these performances be anything less than historical? The Chicago Rat Pack's show, "One Swinging Night" is perhaps one of the few special productions that shall become as timeless as the actual counterparts (Sammy, Frank and Dean).

This was the period at which all three of the magnificent super-stars were at the prime of their wonderful careers. At times, these three actors seem to transcend reality by totally becoming the characters they portray. Along with this and the fact that each member of this cast is very talented in his own right makes "One Swinging Night" a show that must be seen!

A plurality of ultrasonic flow meter measurement probes are located at spaced intervals along the length of a pipeline carrying a fluid and each probe measures the rate of flow of the fluid at each location along the line. If a leak develops at any point along the pipeline the nearest probe located upstream from the leak will read higher than the measurement being made by the nearest downstream flow meter probe. The difference in readings between the adjacent probes will be an indication of the magnitude of the leak and when the difference exceeds a preset threshold limit an alarm will sound and a coded command signal will be transmitted from the data monitoring center to initiate the immediate closing of the nearest upstream and downstream shut-off valves in the vicinity of the leak. This procedure will immediately isolate the damaged section of the pipe and prevent uncontrolled leakage of the fluid into the environment. The location of the damage along the pipeline is instantly displayed on a central panel so that a service crew can be immediately dispatched to the exact location of the fault to make the necessary repairs.
1. In combination in a system for monitoring the rate of flow of a fluid being transported through a conduit, a plurality of valve means located at various points along the conduit for controlling the rate of flow of said transported fluid, a plurality of flow measurement probes located at different points along the conduit, the locations of said plurality of flow measurement probes characterized in that neighboring pairs of probes are located one upstream and one downstream from a particular valve means, each probe characterized in that it produces an output signal which is precisely indicative of the rate of flow in the conduit at the position in the conduit occupied by the probe, means for comparing the output signal from one probe with the output signal from another probe, remote control means for selectively operating said valve means, said remote control means characterized in that it is selectively responsive to any specified difference in said output signals being produced by a neighboring pair of probes, said remote control means further characterized in that a particular valve means is operated by a particular remote control signal initiated in response to said specified difference in output signals produced by a particular pair of probes, said remote control means further characterized in that it selectively initiates the closing of a pair of valve means located one upstream and one downstream from the probe which has indicated an abrupt decrease in flow from its nearest upstream neighbor, whereby the section of the conduit containing said probe is isolated and sealed off by the closing of the said pair of valve means.
2. The invention in claim 1 and signal transmission means associated with each probe for transmitting its output signal to a central location.
3. The invention in claim 2 and a display panel, said display panel including means for the visual indication of the rates of fluid flow at the different positions of the probes along the conduit.
4. The invention in claim 3 and signal coding means associated with each probe for identifying the individual probe location associated with each received signal during the transmission of signal information from a plurality of probes.
This invention is concerned with the automatic detection and localization of a leak in a conduit while carrying a gaseous or liquid fluid. It is particularly useful in connection with the detection of leaks in pipelines which are not easily accessible to frequent visual inspection. Typical examples of application in which this invention is particularly useful is in underground pipelines transmitting natural gas or oil or in pipelines located in remote and not easily accessible places. The Alaska pipeline being constructed for use in transmitting crude oil through the hostile frozen terrain of the arctic region is an example of an application that could make good use of this invention.
The basic principle employed in this invention is to monitor the exact rate of fluid flow in a pipeline at a number of points along the length of the line and to continuously and automatically recognize any significant difference in the rate of flow between successive points and to give an instantaneous indication of any such differences at a central station. A suitable signal received at the central station will indicate the position along the pipeline at which the flow discrepancy is detected and appropriate action may be taken to immediately apply corrective procedures to prevent continuing spillage and to make the necessary repairs.
An important element required in my proposed leakage detection system is a highly reliable flow meter capable of making very accurate flow measurements so that any small difference in fluid flow between any two measurement points along the pipeline will be precisely indicated. Such a high accuracy flow meter can be achieved by making use of the ultrasonic flow meter system shown in FIG. 5 of my co-pending application Ser. No. 636,054 filed Nov. 28, 1975 in which a detailed description is given beginning with the paragraph starting on page 9 of the application.
The method for achieving the objects of this invention will become more evident in the disclosure which follows.
The primary object of this invention is to precisely measure the fluid flow at a plurality of points along a pipeline and to continuously indicate any differences in the rate of flow between points as a means for automatically detecting the presence of a leak at any location along the line at the instant that the leak occurs.
Another object of this invention is to automatically and continuously monitor the rate of flow along a pipeline carrying a fluid and to indicate the location and magnitude of a leak at the instant that it occurs.
A still further object of this invention is to automatically and continuously measure the rate of fluid flow at several points along a pipeline carrying a fluid and to instantly indicate any difference in flow between two points in the line and to signal the occurrence of any such difference by the transmission of an identifying signal to a central monitoring station to indicate the location along the line of the measured difference in flow.
Another object of this invention is to provide a monitoring system for detecting leakage along a pipeline carrying a fluid and to automatically indicate the presence of a leak at the instant it occurs and to also indicate the location along the line where leakage is occurring.
An additional object of this invention is to continuously monitor the rate of fluid flow at various points along the length of a pipeline and to recognize any significant difference in fluid flow being two points along the line when it occurs and to provide means responsive to the indication of any such recognized difference in flow to seal off the section of the pipe in the region where the flow difference is occurring to prevent spillage and permit necessary repairs to the damaged section causing the leak.
These and other objects of this invention will become more evident in the specifications which follow. The novel features which are characteristic of the invention are set forth with particularity in the appended claims. However, the invention itself, both as to its organization and method of operation, together with further objects and advantages thereof, will best be understood by reference to the following description when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a schematic illustration of the installation of the novel ultrasonic leakage detection system in a section of conduit through which a fluid is being transported.
FIG. 2 is an enlarged diagramatic view of one of the precision ultrasonic flow meter measurement probes, including the associated electronic package for operating the probe and for transmitting the measured data to a central station.
FIG. 3 is a schematic view of the central station indicator panel for instantly displaying the magnitude and the location of any leak along the pipeline. Also illustrated is a schematic block diagram for transmitting a coded signal to remotely shut off the upstream valve next to the ultrasonic probe at the instant that the probe indicates the occurrence of a leak exceeding an acceptable limit.
Referring more particularly to the figures in which one preferred form of the invention is illustrated, 1 illustrates a section of a conduit which is transporting a gaseous or liquid fluid with the flow direction indicated by the arrow. At each desired position along the conduit as illustrated by positions 201, 202, 203, is installed an ultrasonic flow meter probe assembly 201A, 202A, 203A. Each flow meter assembly includes a pair of ultrasonic transducers T1 and T2 facing each other and aligned with the axis of the conduit as illustrated in FIG. 1.
In my preferred embodiment illustrated in FIG. 1, a shut-off valve is advantageously placed in the conduit at the downstream side of each flow meter probe as illustrated by V201, V202, V203. Each of the shut-off valves may be equipped with an electrically actuated control mechanism of any well known type, not shown in the sketch, which may be operated by a command signal which is automatically transmitted from a control center to close a particular valve on command whenever a leak is detected in the downstream vicinity of the valve.
An enlarged schematic view of the ultrasonic flow meter probe is shown in FIG. 2. Two small ultrasonic transducers T1 and T2 are mounted facing each other and sealed to opposite ends of a tubular fixture 2 which is in turn sealed to the lower end of a tubular stem 3 as shown. The stem 3 passes through and is sealed to a pipe plug 4 which serves to attach and seal the probe assembly to the conduit 1 which is provided with a mating tapped hole at each location 201, 202, 203, as illustrated in FIG. 1. The upper end of the tubular stem 3 is secured and sealed to a housing structure 5 which contains the electronic circuit for operating the ultrasonic flow meter measurement probe and for coding and continuously transmitting the measured data to a central terminal. At the top of the housing structure 5 is shown an insulator 6 which supports the antenna 7 for transmitting the data by radio link. The radio link is one of several well known data transmission systems that may be used. Alternately the data may be transmitted over the power line that furnishes the power to operate the flow meter assemblies along the pipeline, which is another well known method for transmitting electrical data and does not form a part of this invention.
The details of the electronic circuit assembled in housing 5 for operating the transducers T1 and T2 are also not shown as they are well known in the art and do not form part of this invention. A more complete description of the operation of the ultrasonic flow meter probe illustrated in FIG. 2 can be found in my co-pending application. The transducers T1 and T2 are connected by wires, not shown, which pass through the hollow tubular members 2 and 3 and into the housing 5 which contains the electronic circuit. The entire assembly is thus hermetically sealed to operate reliably in all hostile environments that may be encountered.
The principle of operation of the ultrasonic transducers mounted in the probe for making precise flow measurements is fully described in my co-pending application. It consists basically in measuring the difference in transmission time for a pulse of ultrasonic energy to travel the distance from T1 to T2 compared to the time in travelling from T2 to T1. When the sound pulse is travelling downstream it will arrive sooner than when travelling upstream if the fluid is moving and the difference in arrival times is a measure of the flow velocity. The precise measurement of the transit time for the ultrasonic signals to travel between T1 and T2 is accomplished by switching an electrical signal to activate one transducer which generates the ultrasonic signal. At the same instant of activating the transducer, the switching signal also starts an electronic clock which may employ a quartz crystal oscillator, for example, as is well known in the art, as the reference frequency standard to permit the measurement of time to the required accuracy which, for this application, is generally in the order of a fraction of a microsecond. At the instant of arrival of the ultrasonic signal to the receiving transducer the electronic clock is stopped and the time period required for the ultrasonic signal to travel from the transmitting transducer to the receiving transducer is thereby precisely indicated. The procedure is then reversed so that the receiving transducer becomes the transmitter and the transmitting transducer becomes the receiver. The time measurement made for the reversed direction of transmission then indicates the precise time period for the ultrasonic signal to travel in the opposite direction in the conduit. The difference between the two time measurements will represent the exact rate of flow at the particular location of the probe. This time difference is continuously measured at each station along the pipeline and is continuously transmitted to the central station where it is automatically displayed on the appropriate LED 10 which represents the corresponding probe which is transmitting the data.
Neither the ultrasonic flow meter nor the details of the electronic circuits for operating the system form any part of this invention, as they are well known in the prior art; therefore, any additional description of these components in the system will be omitted from this disclosure in order to simplify the description of the invention which is directed only to the new combination of these well known elements to provide a new system, as described, for automatically detecting and locating a leak in a pipeline carrying a fluid whenever a leak occurs.
Each electronic circuit associated with each of the flow meter probes 201A, 202A, 203A contains a microprocessor or other well known circuit means for continuously processing the measurements at each probe location and adding the necessary coding information to identify the particular probe position along the pipeline during the transmission of the data to the central terminal. None of the details of the electronic processing circuits is shown because they are well known in the electronic and computer art and they do not form part of this invention.
FIG. 3 is a schematic illustration of a central terminal that continuously receives and displays the measured flow data for each station along the pipeline where the ultrasonic flow measurement probes are located. For the purposes of presenting a visual display of the fluid flow rates at the different points along the line, a display board 8 is illustrated which contains a number of pilot lights 9, one for each position of a flow meter location along the pipeline. Each pilot light is identified by its location number 100, 101, 102 as shown below each light in FIG. 3. Above each pilot light is a LED digital display 10 that shows the actual fluid flow velocity as it is being continuously measured at the locations of each ultrasonic measurement probe along the line. If the cross-sectional area of the pipe is uniform at each probe location and if there are no leaks along the line, the fluid velocity will be uniform throughout the length of the line and the LED's will all read the same. Some minor differences in readings may appear due to tolerances in the area of the conduit at the points of measurement and also due to any difference in temperature along the conduit if the temperature difference is sufficiently large to cause a significant change in the density of the fluid and thereby cause corresponding differences in the flow readings. These variations are generally very small, however, especially between adjacent measurement stations, and thus may generally be neglected.
If a leak develops at any point along the pipeline the nearest ultrasonic flow meter probe located upstream from the lead will read higher than the measurement being made from the nearest downstream flow meter probe. The difference in readings between the adjacent probes will then be an indication of the magnitude of the leak. When the difference in readings becomes greater than a preset threshold (which is set to take care of all the tolerances in the system) the pilot light associated with the lower reading flow meter will light up on the display board. At either the same or at a higher threshold limit, which is set to represent an unacceptable leakage situation, an alarm 11 will be activated and the radio transmitter 12 will be energized to transmit a coded command signal from the radio antenna 13 (or the signal can be sent directly over the power cable as an alternate possibility if desired) to initiate the closing of the nearest upstream and downstream valves in the vicinity of the indicated leak. The possibility of instantly and automatically closing the valves will immediately isolate the damaged section of the pipe and prevent uncontrolled leakage of the fluid.
Another radio transmitter 14 contains the necessary circuits, which are also well known in the art, for sequentially sending a different coded signal to successively interrogate each flow measurement station along the pipeline in rapid sequence and commanding each probe to transmit the flow rate data as it is being measured at the instant of interrogation. The data thus continually transmitted by the measurement stations along the pipeline during each interrogation cycle of the transmitter 14 is continuously received by the radio receiver 15 and the flow information is continuously used to update the LED 10 associated with each ultrasonic probe location along the pipeline.
Although the transmitters and receivers have been illustrated in the block diagram as separate units, it is obvious to anyone skilled in the art that the different circuits can be assembled within a common structural unit if desired. It is also obvious that different data may be transmitted and received on a common channel by multiplexing if desired as is also well known in the art.
While I have shown and described a specific embodiment of the present invention, it should be understood that various modifications and alternative constructions may be made without departing from the true spirit and scope of the invention. Therefore, it is intended by the appended claims to cover all equivalent and alternative constructions which might fall within their true spirit and scope.

"A big dissapointment!!!"
I struggled on with this book to the bitter end and couldn't find anything positive to say about it at all! My fellow book club members raved about it and I felt I was reading a different book - perhaps I was! It was long winded, no gripping content and often difficult to follow as people kept changing year and age and combination of ages. Not for me, and I wouldn't pick up this auther again!
I thought this was a really interesting book the way it went back in time but kept coming back to the reality of old age and all the condescending ill-treatment and disrespect that goes with it. I was enthralled and had to keep listening until the end. A great writer and I definitely recommend this book.
