I'll be the first to admit that when I was in high school, I thought cheerleaders were kinda lame. I mean, the big hair, the short skirts, the pom poms... what was the point?! But then I saw BRING IT ON, and suddenly, I totally wanted to be a cheerleader. I wanted to shellac my head with hairspray and perform crazy flips in the air and compete at Nationals and shout "Brr! It's cold in here! There must be some Toros in the atmosphere!" and flirt with a boy just by brushing my teeth because cheerleaders can do all of those things!
At least, they can when they're played by a chipper Kirsten Dunst, a badass Eliza Dushku (I still think of her as Faith) and a fierce Gabrielle Union. Throw in the adorable guitar soloist Jesse Bradford, and I'm ready to pack up for cheerleader camp. While it might be hard for some people to believe in the awesomeness of BRING IT ON, we know the truth here at Girlie Night, and we're going to 2-4-6-8 appreciate it! So start warming up your spirit fingers, because it's going to be a totally cheertastic evening. (And we'll make sure that no one drops the spirit stick.) (Sarah Pitre)

I have always been happy with Overstock purchases. But this one left a lot to be desired. We needed these sheets in a hurry and couldn't find any locally. They came quickly, which was great. The overall feel and manufacture were fine. But the elastic on the bottom fitted sheet did not go all the way around the sheet. Hence, the first time our guests slept on them, they completely pulled out. And one of the twin XL fitted sheets was obviously a "full" size sheet. I would send these back, but since I have already used them, I feel I need to keep them. Yesterday we bought the same type of sheet at Wal Mart. They have the elastic all the way around the fitted sheet and fit just fine. So, if you are not concerned with a good fit, then these sheets are OK.
Very nice looking bed sheet set....I bought for my daughter, and she loved it.

My app installs the visual Studio C++ runtimes on a remote machine as a prerequisite for another installation. On Windows 2003 when I upgrade to the latest patch of the VS 2005 C++ runtimes the upgrade appears to stall after the embedded MSI package has been run. The fix was to use the /Q:A rather than the /Q argument to the vcredist.exe bootstrapper.
Running the same command from a command prompt doesn't cause the modal dialog box to appear, so it's appear impossible to inspect the dialog box and reassure myself that I'm not just masking another problem.
Anyone got any tips for viewing dialog boxes in other window stations or sessions (currently the dialog is in session 0).

Halo Developer Bungie Reveals Destiny and Its Vision of MMO Gaming 147
from the future-is-now dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
Bungie seems to have immediately taken to making interesting new ideas once free of Microsoft. Who could have expected that?
From http://palladiumbooks.com/ [palladiumbooks.com]
Played that game from when it first came out all through the 90s. Always loved the art and would almost think the art on this link would fit seamlessly in with it.
being "aimed at being unlike any gaming experience we've seen" is what everyone one of them claimed.
An MMO that is controller only.
An MMO that isn't coming to PC, because no one likes to use keyboards and mice anymore. [rockpapershotgun.com]
The shark, it has been jumped.
This is the company that made halo, that should say it all. This is another game for fratboys not PC gamers. Hard to believe these people made Tribes not so long ago.
I like console FPS actually. I loved GoldenEye. Halo sucks, it is an FPS dumbed down for the fratboy set.
Except they'd already signed contracts with MS and started development prior to the split. So that was just them finishing their outstanding contracts off.
"One Architecture, One OS" also translates as "One Egg, One Basket".

We had a hard time finding the inn at first because all it had is a tiny signage in a small gate. I think it used to be Trekker's Lodge and they haven't changed the big signage yet. It is situated in a residential area and may get a little noisy at night depending on the happenings around the neighbors.

By Gareth Harris. Web onlyPublished online: 06 March 2013
The non-profit organisation Edge of Arabia plans to open a new 4,000 sq. ft Middle East art centre in London on 7 March housed in an arts venue called "Testbed 1" based in Battersea, south of the River Thames.
"We needed to move into a larger, more creative space [from the current central London office], which would allow us to create our own home and accommodate our new gallery," an Edge of Arabia spokeswoman says. The Crossway Foundation, a London-based charity, will share the space. "We want to create a hub for the growing Menasa [Middle East, North Africa, South Asia] arts community in London," says Stephen Stapleton who founded both Edge of Arabia and the Crossway Foundation. The opening exhibition, "It's a Project" (until 24 May), will include works by artists shown in nine previous exhibitions organised by Edge of Arabia, as well as films and displays from seven youth expeditions overseen by the Crossway Foundation. Works on display will mainly be by Saudi artists apart from Faycal Baghriche (Algeria), and Chourouk Hriech (Morocco).

N.Y. stand-off ends with father, son dead
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Thach Ros, 62, exchanged gunfire with police during the standoff that began Saturday afternoon with a call about domestic violence, Police Chief Gary Miguel said.
His two younger children and his daughter-in-law were able to escape onto a porch roof, where emergency crews rescued them by ladder. Neighbors also were evacuated during the standoff, which finally ended Sunday night.
Police twice attempted to enter the house but were forced back when Ros opened fire on them, Miguel said.
Officers found the body of Ros' son, Sophin ''Peter'' Ros, 34, upstairs in the home, dead from a gunshot wound to the head, Miguel said.
An autopsy was planned to determine whether the elder Ros was killed by officers or if the fatal wound was self-inflicted, the chief said.
His wife, Sopheap Kim Ros, 52, was in critical condition Monday morning with a stomach wound.
The shootings and standoff resulted from an ongoing feud between Ros and his son, said the Rev. Oan Yos, pastor of the Cambodian Alliance Church.
Ros wanted Peter Ros to marry a cousin in Cambodia, but the son didn't want to marry a relative and rejected his father's proposal, Yos said. According to Yos, Peter Ros wound up marrying another Cambodian woman and they moved to Syracuse four months ago, Yos said.

Photos of my fall migration visitors
This one had a deformed bill, poor thing!
I was so happy to see this Female Rufous at my feeders!! She was the 2nd rufous visitor I have had, had a male rufous visit last fall
Wow wow wow! Great pictures, at first I was going to say I like the 1st one best, then I scrolled down & I love them all! The midair shots are nice, I love the way I can see their little claws curled up. The one with the deformed bill, is very interesting. Feathers all fanned out, etc, just a great group of pics. Thanks for posting, now I get to see some hummers, since they seem to have all left Detroit.
What kind of feeder is that? It looks like glass but I can't tell.
Thank you so much jomuir! I am in Baton Rouge, LA and most of mine are gone now too, just one or two a day visiting feeders. I am hoping to get some western species that visit Louisiana for winter, so I am keeping my feeders up and filled!
Great photographs! I had more hummingbirds at my 9 feeders this fall than ever before. They have all gone on south now except for 4 or 5. Keeping the feeders filled up was getting to be work. I'm just guessing but I must have had at least 100 hummers at the peak.
How long did the female Rufous stay with you? I had a Rufous stay last winter from November 27 until January 16.
You are so lucky to have had such a wonderful bunch of visitors! I live in Alberta, Canada and we are lucky to see 2 or 3 at our feeder. My mother-in -law has a little better luck but their stay in our area is quite short. Thanks for sharing your photos.
Geneh7, Nice pic! My rufous only stayed around a few days. But, I ended up having a black-chinned hummer show up at my feeders on December 13, 2012, he turned out to be my 1st official winter hummer. He stayed for over 2 months. I assumed he was a Ruby-throat at first, because he sounded like a Ruby, so I didn't take a closer look. A few days after he showed up, I happened to notice the sound of the wing whir as he was flying away from a feeder and it got my attention because it didn't sound like a Ruby wing whir at all, then I realized that I had yet to see a red gorget, so I started to pay closer attention and I finally got a glimpse of the purple gorget. I Never managed to get a really nice photo showing the gorget though, I am hoping he comes back this winter!

I'm writing an installer that will tune the configuration of the product for the particular hardware on which it will be run. In particular, I want to determine how much physical RAM is installed in the system so I can estimate how much memory to allocate to the product when it runs.
Ideally, I'd like to do this in a platform-independent, pure Java way, as the installer will need to run on several different platforms, but in case this isn't possible, solutions for Windows are preferred as that's the most common deployment platform.
In this case, it's safe to assume that the product will be the only/main application running on the box, so I don't have to worry about squeezing anyone else out. I don't want to over-allocate as this, in our experience, can hurt performance.

Two of sci-fi/horror's most iconic species will go head-to-head come scare season – and guests at Universal's Halloween Horror Nights on both coasts will be caught in the middle of the terrifying chaos. AVP: Alien vs. Predator is all-new maze that marks landmark anniversaries for both franchises – and a horrifying labyrinth where danger lurks at every turn.
Halloween Horror Nights, now entering its 24th year, invites guests to navigate multiple mazes and street experiences based on some of the biggest names in horror. The 2014 installment is already set to feature scares courtesy of AMC's "The Walking Dead," "From Dusk Till Dawn" and "The Purge: Anarchy" at both the Hollywood and Orlando parks. More reveals are yet to come.
Guests at Universal Orlando will be ducking for cover as they enter a research facility that deals in extraterrestrial technologies. Communication has been lost. Security has been compromised. The merciless Xenomorphs – acid-blooded exoskeletal nightmares from the Oscar-winning mind of the late artist H.R. Giger – are loose in the labyrinth. Of course, they're not all there is to fear, as the Predators are on the hunt. And they'll also take out any human presence they find.
Universal is "attempting to bring two of the most iconic creatures ever put on film to Halloween Horror Nights," according to Michael Aiello, Director of Entertainment – Creative Development for Universal Orlando Resort. "Translating the 'Alien vs. Predator' brand into an authentic and horrifying maze experience," as Aiello describes it, will rely on puppetry, elaborate costumes and unique environments. The total experience is likely to enchant – and petrify – devotees of these two cult classics.
Global Live and Location-Based Entertainment at Twentieth Century Fox Consumer Products, is charged with creating the mazes which will bring fans face-to-face with the horrifying characters of AVP. Vice President Greg Lombardo says the company is leveraging technology which will "provide a uniquely terrifying and visceral encounter that puts guests right in the middle of an epic extraterrestrial battle for survival."
Channel your inner Ellen Ripley starting Sept. 19 at either park, and discover if you'll endure this ancient feud.

Have apple mint cuttings
Want other kinds of interesting mint. Like ginger, Eau-de-cologne, kentucky colonel, julep, lavender, pear, moroccan, basil, banana, grapefruit, crispa, mojito.
Already have chocolate, pineapple, and orange mints started, so not interested in those.
Mojito mint is another name for apple mint. Yerba buena is normally another name for spearmint.
I have peppermint available for a trade.
The types I have are:
Orange mint
Chocolate mint
Apple mint
Pineapple mint
I'm looking for a trade of a mint that I do not have
According to what I've read, there are many kinds of yerba buena, not just mints, but those that are mint is a reference that varies by region depending on what is indigenous there and popular with the locals. Apple mint, also known as yerba buena, is Mentha suaveolens. This species name also refers to pineapple mint, that which has variegation along the edges of the leaves. But I've read of no connection between this species and mojitos. Spearmint, Mentha spicata, is what I've read has been used in mojitos most commonly. This is also called yerba buena in some regions. Mentha X villosa, cuban mint, mojito mint, is also yerba buena and is a cross between M. spicata and M. suaveolens. This is the one I've read is best for mojitos, and harder to find. Apple mint is used in many of the species, likely because many of these species are crosses between apple mint and others.
Yerba buena can also refer to Mentha citrata; Bergamot mint.
Yerba buena means mint in general- if it's specifically for mojitos than it's reasonable to ask if it's cuban mint, Mentha X villosa, or common spearmint, Mentha spicata.
I have neither so am open to trading for either.
I don't have any other kinds of mint that you don't already have Danny.

g- 8, 1950 F. scHuL'TE ELECTRONICALLY RESPONSIVE COMPASS Filed Nov. 24, 1948 ATTORNEYS.
Patented Aug. 8, 1 950 2,518,258 ELECTRONICALLY RESPONSIVE COMPASS Fritz Schulte, Philadelphia, Pa., assignor to Bowes Instrument 00., Inc., Philadelphia, Pa., a corporation of Pennsylvania Application November 24, 1948, Serial No. 61,766
4 Claims.
erative association with automatic signalling,
steering, and other control devices.
It is well known, of course, that many efforts have been made in the past to secure electronically an accurate signal of ship deviation from a magnetic compass course, but so far as known each has in the last analysis been found inadequate and unsafe, because even though working fairly well in calm supporting-fluid conditions, in actual practice this is almost abstract theory. In other words, rolling, pitching, yawing, heeling, and various conditions of acceleration and deceleration all so modify the action of the device that in turbulent conditions prior art compasses are unreliable.
The fundamental required condition of a magnetic compass is a magnetic element carried by a supporting device, designated as a compass card, suspended by gravity on a single supporting point or pivot-bearing normally disposed concentrically of the card, and normally maintained in a horizontal position by gravity. To overcome as far as possible the accelerations and decelerations of the craft in which the compass is mountedrelative to the card, including resultant accelerations where plural forces about divergent axes occur simultaneously, it is conventional to mount the entire compass in a gimbal suspension. Such suspensions in average conditions maintain the compass reasonably well in a substantially horizontal position of adequate utility where the helmsman is merely reading azimuthal angular motions of the compass card relative to a lubber'line fixed to the ship, whereby the course of the ship is a series of huntings on each side of the desired course with the degree of hunt a function of the skill of the helmsman. However, even with such gimbal suspensions, it is found that under conditions of turbulence the compass cards move out of the horizontal in various angular directions successively. If the compass.
and other accelerations the compass card is also horizontal. In other words, actual experience indicates that with the craft in turbulent fluid, even with the best of suspensions, it is rare indeed that both the compass housing and the compass card are in the horizontal positions to which gravitational forces alone would return them. The relative oscillations between the compass card and the housing are particularly troublesome in cases where the compasses are associated with electronic systems by which signals of deviation are developed, as the circuits are not discriminatory between stimuli received as a result of azimuthal compass card and housing relative angular motion abouta truly vertical axis, which is desired, and stimuli arising from relative tilting motion between the compass card and housing about some other axes which is undesired. This has caused erratic steering under moder ately rough conditions, and substantially total inoperability of such compasses in really bad weather. 7 V
In my earlier patent, No. 1,929,400, a compass of better and more efiicient performance than known prior art devices is disclosed, which is thoroughly operative under normal more or less easy conditions, but which is subject to the same erratic signal and control functions as other compasses under certain types of compass card relative motion incident to turbulent sea conditions. In said patent a common light source or energy transmitter is disclosed c'o-axial with and spaced vertically from the pivot journal of the compass card when the latter is horizontal, and photoelectric cells as receptors are mounted on the housing, and the beams from said central light source are arranged to be intercepted by an opaque portion of the card or topass beyond a generally vertical edge formed in the compass card, to incidence upon a photo-cell, according to the instantaneous azimuthal attitude of the latter as it is relatively angularly moved in the housing, as the craft is on or deviates from the given course. The compass of said patent was so arranged that when the compass housing and the card are both horizontal and the craft is on the set course, both photo-electric cells were screened from the light source. By reference to that patent it will be observed that with both card and housing in horizontal dispositions, angular motion of the card on its pivot in a plane containing the edge of the compass card will not disturb the instantaneous beam relation to the photo-cell, i. e. if screened it remains screened, and unscreened it'remains unscreened to maintain the light incidence condition which maintained at the time of such angular motion. If, however, the angular relative motion of the card and housing is in a plane not substantially containing said edge, as in relative pitching, rolling, or other accelerations of the ship transverse of such plane, the angular relation of said edge will change with relation to the true vertical axis, working about the pivot of the card, and in one direction of motion may cut off or screen a previously unscreened photo-cell, or conversely may expose a previously screened photo-electric cell, with a consequent deenergization or energization of the instant photo-electric cell, with a consequent false signal, which if translated into steering control may be completely erroneous for the adherence to the set course. lhis defect in ap-plicants patented device is paralleled by other prior art devices of the same general type and therefore said devices are not universally successful under adverse conditions, even though applicants patented device functions well in good weather.
It may be noted in passing that those prior art devices which utilize prisms, reflectors, or other complex optical systems in association with the compass assembly, are more quickly prone to erratic signalling, than the direct beam type of device shown in applicants said patent. This is for the reason that owing to dissipation of light energy by such indirect light systems aggravated by the distances between the primary source and the photo-cells, it is necessary to use lamps of high light intensity in order to obtain clear signals, which shortens the life of the lamps. Obviously, if a lamp burns out unexpectedly while on a coursedangerous results may follow the loss of steering control or the imposition of an erroneous steering control. A further disadvantage of intense light sources is the undissipated heat they develop. As such compasses having such intense light sources are frequently used in smallcruisers or on the bridges of larger boats where the heat of the sun is incident directly or indirectly upon the compasses, either factor may soraise the temperatures as to destroy the operative qualities of the photo-cells used, and when both factors are operative simultaneously it has frequently caused such heat efiects as to damage the sensitive coating of the photo-cells, as well as having a deteriorating effect on the damping fluid used. For several reasons, therefore, it is undesirable to require intense light sources in compasses of this type.
The primary object of this invention is to provide a compass having associated energy-responsive devices or receptors and a source or transmitter of radiant energy for actuating same which will respond to and accurately signal relative azimuthal angular movements of the card and housing substantially regardless of pitching, rolling, heeling, and other positive or negative accelerations effective on either the card or the housing, or both.
A further object of the invention is to provide a compass of the type under discussion which will not register or respond signal-wise to secondary effects of relative pitching, tossing, rolling, or other accelerations on either the compass card or housing or both periodically out of their normal horizontal parallel dispositions.
Still further objects of the invention are to provide a compass of the type under discussion; which will register and respond only to azimuthal relative movements of the compass llQl fi ng and compass card; which dispenses with the use of gimbal suspensions; which is small and compact without loss of its full utility; which gives signal indications to a fraction of a degree and of such amplitude as to require a minimum of amplification for automatic steering of a vessel or craft and which uses an exciting source of radiant energy so efliciently that its filament can be operated at one-half or less of its operating capacity, which therefore provides a radiant source of extremely long life, with a corresponding decrease in emitted heat; which establishes accurate long life to the photo-cells with which it is associated; which is of extremely low initial cost and of low running expense; which successfully immerses all of the operating elements in the same damping fluid as is used for the compass card, including the slip rings and brush assemblies used for the photo-cell circuit; which protects all of the agencies involved from adverse and corrosiveactions of ambient air; which reduces stray light aboutthe compass with a consequent raising of the visual acuity of the pilot during night running; and other objects and advantages will become more apparent as the description proceeds.
In carryin out the invention in a purely illustrative embodiment, an angularly adjustable compass housing is provided, adjustable about a vertical axis, receptors such as photo-electric cells are mounted on the housing, a radiant energy transmitter such as a light source is mounted to project rays toward the photo-electric cell from a point lower vertically than the photo-electric cells, a compass card is mounted for universal motion on a pivot disposed in a horizontal plane spaced vertically from the point of projection of the light rays, said card having a peripherally incomplete substantially opaque hemispherical body generated substantially about said pivot, said body in its incompleteness being cut away peripherally to form a pair of spaced edges each generally parallel to the axis of the card, said. light source and said photo-electric cell forming a path for projected radiant energy, which path intersects the horizontal plane containing the pivotal axis of the card substantially at the card body, so that rocking the compass card on an axis lying in said horizontal plane containing the pivot and passing by or substantially adjacent to an edge causes the rocking of such edge about the intersection of the light beam on the card as an axis, so that such rocln'ng neither exposes a concealed light beam for transition to said photo-cell nor conceals nor intercepts an open light beam incident upon the light beam incident upon the aligned photo-electric cell.
In the accompanying drawings: Fig. 1 represents a vertical diametrical section through a compass according to one embodiment of the invention, showing the important but illustrative structural features thereof.
Fig. 2 represents a diagrammatic horizontal section through certain of the operating portions of the card, housing and light beams, with the card and housing disposed in the one relative position at which both light beams are intercepted so that both photo-cells are deenergized, when "the card and housing are so arranged relatively as to accord with the course setting.
Fig. 3 represents a similar diagrammatic horizontal section through the assembly of Fig. 2, in which a deviation from the course has occurred, and showing the incidence of one light 5, beam on its photo-cell while the other beam re-: mains intercepted by the card, to indicate and signalthe fact of the deviation.
Fig. 4 represents a diagrammatic vertical section of the card, housing'andlight beam assembly of Fig. 2, showing the angular relation of the light beams to the horizontal plane containing the pivot of the card and with the light beams both intercepted by the card to preclude energization of the respective photo-cells, showing in dotted lines the compass card tipped on its pivot about anaxis extending diametrically of the card through the pivot, as a result of a relative force along the arrow 4 of Fig. 2 transverse of such axis.
Fig. 5 represents adiagrammatic vertical section of the device as positioned in Fig; 2, with the section taken at rightlangles to the section line of Fig. 4, showing the light source projecting the upwardly inclined beam toward the photocell schematically indicated in dotted lines and schematically showing the area of incidence of the inclined beam on the opaque card body adjacent to its edge as a small circle generally symmetrical of the intersection of the light beam with a projected axis on a diameter lying in a horizontal plane passing through the pivotand disposed in the same verticalplane as the light beam, and in dotted lines shown as rocked by force along the arrow 5 of Fig. 2, to show the continuing incidence of the light beam on and its interception by the opaque area of the card during such forced relative angularity of the compass card. The axis of rock in the horizontal plane and the light beam path intersect the opaque body at substantially the same point beside said edge.
Fig. 6 represents a diagrammatic vertical section of the card housing and light beam assembly of Fig. 3, showing the angular relation of the light beams to the horizontal plane containing the pivot of the card,.with one edge thereof disposed to continue the interception of one light beam, whereas the other edge thereof has been moved to withdraw from interception of the other beam which is shown incident upon its associated photo-cell to energize same, and showing in dotted lines the compass card tipped on its pivot about an axis extending diametrically of the card through the pivot as a result of relative force along the arrow 6 of Fig. 3, to show the continued incidence of the last mentioned beam on its photocell despite such angular motion of the card.
Fig. '7 represents a diagrammatic-vertical section of the device as positioned in Fig. 3, with the section taken at substantially right angles to the section ilne of Fig. 6, showing the light source projecting the upwardly inclined energy in a complete unintercepted beam schematically indicated in dotted lines, and schematically showing the beam in the general projected area of the card beside the edge of the opaque portion thereof as a small circle substantially symmetrical'of the intersection of the light'beam and the projected diameter of the card lying in a horizontal plane passing through the pivot of the card in a vertical plane containing the light beam, and in dotted lines shown as rocked by relative force along the arrow 1 of Fig. 3, to show the continued incidence of the beam on the photo-cell during such forced angularity of the card. The axis of rock in the horizontal plane and the light beam path meet in an intersection 6 beside the edge in the light transmitting portion of the card.
Referring to Fig. 1, a binnacle frame I0 is shown within which a central vertical hollow post H is mounted in fluid tight relation to the binnacle frame. The hollow post preferably terminates at its upper end in a hollow glass or like energy-transmitting enclosure l2, and the post II and glass terminus are rigidly fixed in the binnacle. The binnacle is substantially closed at its upper end by the sheet metal dome l3, in fiuid tight relation to the lower portions of the binnacle. The metal dome includes the upper horizontal surface I6 in which packing gland unit I4 is mounted, the axis of which is aligned with the post H. A transparent window or enclosure I5 is mounted on the dome in parallel spaced relation to the upper surface N5 of the dome to form a compass setting disc space l8. Preferably a portion of the window formed as a hemisphere of plastic or glass, in the center of the window is made removable, as indicated at 20. The glass window I5 is held to the dome by the bezel 2|. The housing of the compass 22 is formed of a lower sheet 23, an outwardly and upwardly flaring enclosure'portion 24, an annular flange potrion extending inwardly and upwardly from the flare '24 as at 25 leading into a generally cylindrical portion 26 closed by the upper end 21 having the axially concentric upward cylindrical extension 28 leading to a reduced hollow shank end portion 29 passing through the gland I4. At the extreme upper end the extension 29 is secured to a thimble 30 which carries the compass ring plate 3| having peripheral teeth 32. A manually operated shaft 33 is journalled in the bezel and carries a pinion gear 34 in mesh with the teeth to turn the compass ring with reference to the binnacle in setting a course.
A suitable lubber line (not shown) is formed in or under the window l5 as a datum line for setting the course. The open tube 29 is normally closed by a suitable plug as by the screw 33, removable for the purpose of adding damping fluid, which passes down the tube into the cylinder 28, and through suitable apertures in the cylinder, such as at 34 in the side of the cylinder, and 36 in the insert 31 closing the cylinder below the aperture 34. The conventional air bubble is established and maintained by this filling and sealing arrangement. The upper end of the assembly is formed as described in order to establish a high liquid level of insulating damping fluid for the compass card to be described.
The compass housing 22 is provided axially with the rigid hollow stem 38 extending perpendicularly from the upper surface of the lower horizontal wall 23 and so formed as to seat over and enclose the inner stationary light supporting post I l and to have rotation relative thereto with the movements of the compass housing, as its angular position shifts with rotations of the compass ring under the manual action of the op erator through control shaft 33. On the lower surface of the horizontal plate 23 of the compass housing a journal is mounted as at 4B for rotation on the post H. The compass housing and post 38 are thus journalled for controlled angular motion about the axis of the post H. The upper end of the hollow stem 3-8 has a transverse horizontal closure cap H in the center of which a pivot jewel St is mounted extending vertically upward. Preferably the hollow stem just below the cap 4| is provided with diametrically spaced 7 windows of gates 42 and 43, forming beam=de= fining openings in the post, if such concentrated or sharply defined beams should be preferred. As will be pointed out, such isolated narrow beam formation is preferred as it avoids false or indefinite indications from reflected light, but is in no way an essential. The proportions of windows 42 and 43 may vary within wide limits, and may be of any number, whether one. two, or more. In a diametrical vertical plane containing the vertical central axes of the windows 4-2 and 43, the cylindrical portion of the compass housing 22 is provided with Windows A34 and &5 in a horizontal plane spaced vertically from the horizontal plane containing the windows 42 and 43. The light responsive elements such as photocells 46 and 4'! are mounted rigidly on the compass housing 22 with their sensitive areas'respectively with the paths established by the respective pairs of windows, i. e. 52 and ie for light responsive agency 46, and windows 33 and 35 for light re sp'onsive agency 41. It will be seen that the paths thus defined are each angularly divergent from the horizontal, and in the illustrative case incline upwardly from the center at the light center (to be described) within the post M. It will be observed also that the intersection of the light seam paths in a downwardly directed apex within the post 5 I, is in a horizontal plane vertically spaced from the jewel bearin'gsuriace 3: 3. A light source is carried on a column 53 and mounted remov ably within the post i i, and the center of ra'dia tion of the light source 5?; is placed at the inner apex 'of the light paths in a horizontal plane spaced from the horizontal plane of the pivot bearing 39, but so that light energy on said paths is projected upwardly relative to said pivot bearing plane. Slip ring devices 19 similar to those in said patent are provided for energizing the photocells.
A magnetic element, with or without visible indicia or graduation, designated herein as a Compass card 52 is provided comprising a top spider 53 carrying the central pivot pin 5 centered and supported on the jewel bearing 39, and a generally spherical card-like element 55 is mounted on the spider having an arcuate surface generated about the point of the pivot pin 54, and preferably carries at its lower edge a flaring skirt 55 to facilitate damping of the card movements in the damping fluid. The spider carries preferably a pair of parallel spaced permanent magnets 56- 56, as is common with. such cards for maintaihi'ng the angular position of the card in space.
In order to form light intercepting and transmitting portions of the compass card, a portion of the peripheral wall of the card is removed to form, preferably, two substantially parallel axially extending substantially radially cut edges 51 and 58 joined in an area of opaque material 60, on one side, and spaced by an area of light transmission 6! on the other side. While a semispherical compass card is preferred for its eniciency, it will be understood that if desired other shapes may be used, without departing from the spirit of the invention. For instance, the card in profile may be conical, cylindrical, reversely spherical, or the like, but the efficiency of such card formations will be less than that which attaches to the preferred semi-spherical card, for obvious reasons. The only essential of the card element shape or profile is that it have axial elongation between axially spaced limiting means, which may be mere edges. While it will be clear that many variations of the compass card and light path' assembly can i be" made, the functions ofthe assembly will be illustrated byrecourse to the presently preferred embodiment; With the:
light paths'from' the source of radiation: through the windows to'thephoto cellsg lying in a com-- mon vertical plane diame'trioal of the assembly,
and therefore spaced approximately 180, the
opaque portion'ofthe compass'card terminating in the spaced edges thereof will be slightly greater' than 180 so'that when the'compass card and the compass housingare-mutually so disposed that the' craft is" on'the course; the opaque portion of the card intercepts light on both paths so that bothlight-responsive devices are relatively de-energized. This is the con'di tion indicated diagrammatically in Figs. 2-, 31 and 4'. In this condition-there is no'positi /e signal developed; and the steering. device to-be' associated with the compass will hold its instantaneous course.
Although the" compass card is mounted for accurate centering and attainment of' a" truly horizontal position under" the action of gravitation, for which it is designed', and for maintenance of an azimuthalangular setting" in accordance with the terrestrial magnetic field; it is recog'- nizedthat under various forces acting upon the pivotal support there are individual forces or reare represented by'positive and negative accelerations, (accelerations anddecelerations) pitch-- ing, rolling,- and heeling of the craft in which the compass is mounted. In the prior art experiences with compasses: of this general type ithad been contemplated that such erratic compass card relative movements would either be so' damped as to be ineffectual or would beso transitory as to have little effect on the average control or signal development.
as herein disclosed, and with the edge of the opaque portion generally parallel to the vertical axis containing the pivot pin and pivot, rolls or other relative motions causing. the compass card to tilt on its pivot so that pin 54 moves in a plane substantially coincident with said edge, would be ineffectual to change the interception of the light beam so that such a roll, for instance, would not cause the development of a signal when the azimuthal attitude of the card would not necessitate a signal. However, such isolated single plane force is rare. When the pin 54 moves in a plane which is not substantially coincident with said edge, the edge is effectively rocked, with the portion above the'pivot point moving in one direction, and the portion below the pivot point moving in the other direction. While this latter oscillation is ineffectual to change the signals from the system during temporary wide misalignments of the card and housing, as during a change of course setting, it is critical when an edge of the opaque portion is in line with or even relatively adjacent-to the intersection of such diameter with the card. It will be seen that cooking of the edge in response to such making of the card may move the opaque portion from a non-intercepting position relative to the light beam into interception thereof to develop a signal the reverse of what is proper, or conversely may move the opaque portion from proper interception into non-intercepting relation, with a consequent development of a signal the reverse of what is proper. Therefore in turbulent seas the control of the steering or the creation of signals as to With the card disposed as to intercept the light beam other than the courseand deviations therefrom have been erratic and erroneous and disastrous results have accrued. With the invention herein, however, such erratic behavior is eliminated and even in turbulent seas continued perfect signal developments and steering control are effected.
This important advance is secured herein by insuring that the light beam intersects the horizontal plane containing the axis of the card in an acute angle having its apex in the hemispherical portion of the card, so that when the light beam in a vertical plane containing the pivotal axis of the card is substantially coincident with the edge of the card so that the cocking axis is on a diameter lying in or substantially close to the plane of the light beam, the cooking axis point of intersection with the card is coincident substantially with the light beam. The edge of the card in responding to cooking force in efiect turns substantially about the light beam as an axis, in the peripheral extent of the hemispherical portion of the card, so that if in the instantaneous azimuthal setting of the card and housing the light beam is intercepted so as not to fall on its photo-cell, rocking of the card and cooking of the edge adjacent to the instant light beam will be ineffective to uncover the beam as a function of rocking. Conversely, if the edge has been relatively withdrawn from its interception of the instant light beam, cooking of the edge with rocking of the card will also be inefiectual to cause relative card movement to interpose intercepting opaque portions of the card in the path of the light beam.
It will be understood that within the broad concept of the invention it is not material whether the ,light beams and coordinated light responsive agencies are comprised in a single assembly, or whether there are two or even more of such beams and photo-cells. It is also immaterial whether the central source of light is an actual light source or prisms or reflectors for projecting light energy in the desired directions. Similarly, it is immaterial whether the radiant energy is visible or invisible radiant energy, and whether the light receptors are photo-electric cells or merely thermocouples or the like responsive to heat energy. It will be observed that it is also immaterial in the broadest aspects of the invention whether the signals or steering or other controls are derived as positive or negative responses to the light energy. In other words, a positive signal is derived from energization of the photo-cell or its equivalent, a negative signal is derived from de-energization of the photo-cell or its equivalent. Finally, it will be recognized that within the broad aspects of the invention, a partial energization of the receptor may constitute the datum energization with positive and negative responses with variations of the incident illumination efiective on the receptor. In this case the edge position will be such as to substantially evenly cut the light beam as the proper on course setting and obviously with azimuthal relative swings of the card and housing will increase or decrease the radiation incident onthe receptor with consequent positive or negative signals.
It will be clear that the invention is applicable to compass for use in any desired sorts of craft, whether surface, sub-surface or aircraft, and such modifications of the compass as may be necessary, if any, to adapt them to the particular crafts, will be made, without departing from t irit or the invention.
. 10 The essence of the invention is the provision of structure by which any rocking of the card involvingflthe tilting of the edge about a horizontal pivot axis is also substantially a tilting about the axis'of the light beam, and therefore is substantially incapable of changing the instantaneous condition of incidence of said beam on the light.
flux responsive element.
In other words, the only critical rocking is when the edge is on one side or the other of the beam, and the rocking occurs about the beam. Within this broad concept it will be apparent that whether the axis for the card is above or below the light source will make no difference, as the same relative inclination attaches, varying only in whether the inclination of the beam is upward or downward. Similarly, it makes no particular difference whether the light source is on the central axis or whether by prisms or reflectors or plural sources the light projection is toward the axis and the photo-cells are on the axis, although this reversal is not presently preferred. Finally, it will be apparent that the presence or absence of gimbals makes no particular difierence in the utilization of the invention and these may be added or not as may be desired. All such changes and modifications as have been mentioned herein and others that may occur to those skilled in the art are to be construed as Within the scope of the invention, unless other- Wise specifically excluded in the appended claims.
