Welcome to the Wyoming Business Alliance
Mick McMurry: A Tribute Is Not Enough
Mick McMurry passed this past week, but his shining accomplishments will endure for many years. Perhaps forever. I knew Mick as a friend, business leader, helpful builder, philanthropic contributor, and dedicated husband and father. He trusted me; I know without doubt I trusted him. His uncanny ability to listen, ask penetrating questions, and decisively reach a go or no-go conclusion was unique. Once Mick made up his mind, he stuck to his principles. For him, principles mattered – for the past, in the present, and to the future.
Mick was a calculated risk taker. That is the best kind, I might add. His partnering with John Martin and others in the Jonah Natural Gas Field is legendary. So many thought they wouldn't succeed…but succeed they did indeed. With the sale of Jonah and the Pinedale anti-cline, Mick could have sat back and rested on his laurels, but that was not Mick's way. He was an entrepreneur to the core – early to rise, watchful over various and new business interests daily.
I saw that on numerous occasions. A helicopter ride with his father and another World War II veteran to a ranch near Sundance to check on a water well drill; traveling around industrial parks in Casper in 2010 and seeing idle oil and natural gas field equipment; learning about his commercial property investments near and far; and having lunch at Dori Lou's. For Mick McMurry, his DNA was that of a builder…and I do believe he had his eyes on yet bigger value-added projects for Wyoming and jobs for our citizens.
Together, he and his wife Susie became the face for charity for Casper and Wyoming. They gave and they quietly challenged you to give as well. I remember fondly some years ago at a casual meeting at the old Boys and Girls Club near downtown Casper. Susie was an active board member. There were not many of us at the meeting, but I came because I wanted to give without any expectation other than to help with the vision for a future Boys and Girls Club of Central Wyoming. This is the way it was and hopefully will continue to be with the McMurry Foundation--being principled about visions and building for the future. The lasting legacies that they have funded over the past 15 years or so have been enormous. Buildings and programs at the University of Wyoming, the Boys and Girls Club, the current Casper YMCA drive, Rotary Park, the Wyoming Medical Center, the Beartrap Festival, the Leadership Wyoming Endowment, and the Nicolaysen Art Museum, where I recall, Mick and Susie on a Saturday maybe ten years ago pitched in by helping with the weeding.
So many people have told me over the years that Mick really helped them along the way. He stood by his friends – new and old, from a concrete worker I know to a small restaurant owner. I was told of the day when Mick visited a high school friend from years back, now a contractor, who had just had heart surgery. Mick had heard of his heart attack and went to the hospital to check how he was doing. There are countless other stories like this I am sure, but these are just a few of the reasons why Mick McMurry, and Susie, should be held in our hearts with the highest esteem. They are authentic civic trustees. They moved to within new spheres as their wealth grew, but their hearts were always grounded in the values we aspire for Wyoming, ourselves, and our children. The McMurry road of giving and graciousness will continue with Susie. We all need to stand by her and her family this day and for the days ahead.
Bill Schilling

Thank you, Mick McMurry, for your courage, compassion, generosity, entrepreneurial spirit, and love for Wyoming. You will be missed.

Win A Honeymoon With Your Soul Mat!
It's your partner in practice. It's always got your back, and your front. It's your Soul Mat! It knows your strengths and weaknesses, and supports you no matter what. Check out a few of the amazing entries we've received so far!
Name: Lisa Korb
Soul Mat: Manduka PROlite
My Soul Mat Story: I never thought much about yoga mats... had the same old teal one since high school (10+ years). But something about it wasn't right. For one, it reminded me of those first yoga classes: me at 16 years old, the rest of the class about 30 years older than me. Don't get me wrong, nothing's wrong with age, but those first classes I took were a bit of a snooze-fest. But then I moved to California and saw the light through active Vinyasa, Bikram, Forrest, Anusara and Iyengar classes. I found power and energy in inversions and more playful postures. And I found Manduka. I first saw my soul mat at the Wanderlust festival in Squaw Valley. One step on, and I knew it was a forever thing. Its dusty, calming purple hue, its sturdy base with just the perfect amount of stick---no STUCK about it. My Manduka mat helps me hold postures longer, with more confidence. I am strong and solid and grounded. And it was a gift from my partner, which makes it a soul mate's soul mat :)
Name: Lisa Ahrens
Soul Mat: Manduka PRO – Black Sapphire
My Soul Mat Story: my story isn't linear or riveting-- like any good love story, it's more about the feeling than about the background information. i loved the black mat pro, and it came out in my favorite color. i ordered it as fast as my fingers could type, and the rest is history. i practice on it, i teach with it, i lug it on my back on crowded subways, tapping into unsuspecting citizens, building muscles just by holding it. but i wouldn't trade those extra 7 pounds for any other mat. it's absolutely perfect, irreplaceable. it supports my practice and, therefore, my spirit, and i wouldn't trade that for anything!
Name: Zachary Wysocki
Soul Mat: The Midnight PROlite Mat
My Soul Mat Story: My Soul Mat story began in March of 2011. I had been practicing power vinyasa style yoga as part of the P90X program. The "hand-me down" mat that I was using was not cutting it. I then met my soul mat, the midnight blue PROlite and my practice went to a whole new level. I then discovered a local baptiste style hot yoga studio that had newly opened, The Funky Buddha. I was a little apprehensive about practicing in a room with other people and at 95 degrees, but I overcame that with my mat in hand. I began regularly practicing at the studio and fell in love with yoga even more. I experienced an awesome practice, as the studio went through renovations, at a Oval beach in Saugatuck, MI. My 2 year old daughter wanted to join in the yoga love as we went into "frog pose". She did the pose with me on my mat as the instructor snapped a photo(the attached photo). This was my best memory of the summer. The studio offered an assistant teacher training weekend and this immediately sparked my interest for I wanted a way to enhance my practice and help others to enhance theirs. I completed the assistant teacher program and enjoy the "co-creation" that occurs with the students when assisisting. Thinking back a year ago, I would have never thought that yoga would be such an important part of my life. I can't imagine life without yoga, and can't imagine yoga without my soul mat.
Zachary also shared this adorable photo with us!

On December 16th, 2014 at 10:33 am, Radia said:
I think one of the more romantic cities to visit is Italy. I personally went there on my honeymoon and my husband and I loved the food and the people there! I would strongly suggest Rome and Florence. Although it can get very touristy, especially in the summer, they are very beautiful places with so much history and culture. To break free from the tourist crowd, I would suggest you to try some home-dining options. We went to dine with one of the local hosts on BonAppetour, and were treated to a fancy meal at their homes on the rooftop! It is very simple to book a dinner with the hosts on their website too! Other than that, I would also suggest you to try taking one of those Vespa tours, especially in the Florence country-side. Riding on the vespa with your partner across the green landscape is actually very thrilling and romantic! Hope this helped!

Fremont, California (PRWEB) November 07, 2013
A new study addressing patterns of diet and breast cancer has found that women whose diets are primarily plant-based, consisting mostly of fruits and vegetables, have significantly lower risk of developing breast cancer, while women who consume a diet high in wine, salad and low-fat dressing may have increased risk.
The study was led by researchers from the Cancer Prevention Institute of California (CPIC) and Columbia University who worked with information obtained from thousands of women to identify a correlation between dietary patterns and breast cancer.
While a lowered risk for breast cancer was observed in the plant-based diet group as a whole, of particular note were the women who reported consuming the highest amounts of fruits and vegetables. The researchers found this group to be 35 percent less likely to develop estrogen receptor-negative (ER-) breast cancer than those who reported eating the fewest fruits and vegetables.
"The finding that women who are at high risk for ER- breast cancer can reduce their risk by consuming a diet rich in fruits and vegetables is very encouraging. It provides a simple and important preventative measure for women to take, and one likely to reduce the risk of other major chronic diseases as well," said Pamela Horn-Ross, Ph.D., research scientist at CPIC.
"The diet does not have to be vegetarian to make a difference," Horn-Ross noted. "What we found is that the more fruits and vegetables consumed in the overall diet, the greater the benefit." But she noted that even those consuming the greatest amounts of fruits and vegetables also consumed meat, chicken, fish, and grain-based foods to some degree. <

Pruning/shaping ficus lyrata
I recently separated my multi-stemmed ficus lyrata and repotted into gritty mix. The taller of the two, shown in the photo, pouted a pit post-repot but now seems to have perked up. It stands (a bit crookedly!) about 45" above the soil line.
Ultimately I'd like to create a sturdy trunk with branching and a full-ish crown, but I'm not sure how to get there from here. As you can see in the photo, it's currently just one tall stem, and a rather flimsy one at that.
I know this is a common post topic, and I've read elsewhere
(this thread: http://forums2.gardenweb.com/forums/load/houseplt/msg0116100910519.html?10) that I should:
a)tip-prune when the plant is about 2/3 of the eventual maximum height I'm hoping for
b)prune any branch with 4 or more leaves back to 2 leaves
...but before I break out the shears I wanted to confirm - do I need to create actual branches (through notching?) before I attempt any pruning/shaping?
I'm also wondering if I should be worried about the current internodal distance - is it unrealistic for me to imagine I could have a more robust and branched tree?
The soil looks more like something along the lines of a 5:1:1 mix, but from what I can see, you should be very happy with it. It IS still possible to over-water, so make sure you use a wood dowel to test for how often you really DO need to water.
If you tip prune robust trees in late summer, they will back-bud in the axils (crotches) of several leaves proximal to the pruning cut (aka a pinch). Weaker trees might only back bud in the immediate 1-2 axils immediately proximal to the cut. You can get some SIGNIFICANT back-budding on this tree after it puts on some branches if you keep it outdoors for the first half of the summer and then cut it back hard.
Things that stimulate back-budding are, pruning, lots of very bright light, lots of air movement, luxury levels of fertility - especially N, and lots of room for roots to grow.
Things that decrease internode length and leaf size are, low fertility, bright light, root congestion, poor root health in general, maximizing ramification (the more branches & leaves you create via pruning/pinching, the shorter internodes and smaller leaves will be.
Notching needs to be deep enough and wide enough to divert the polar flow of auxin from the leaf axil. Auxin flows downward, so you need to notch THROUGH the vascular cambium into the xylem for at least the width of the leaf, so the auxin doesn't travel around the notch and into the leaf axil. Strangely, photosynthate and auxin travels downward to a point just under the leaf and then moves upward in the nutrient stream through the branch bark ridge and into the leaf or latent buds in leaf axils. You can see why notching works best on trees with more caliper (fatter trunks) than yours. Try it if you like, though.
Al -
Thank you for your very detailed response. To promote back-budding, I can certainly provide air movement, luxury nutrients levels (I'm a FoliagePro user), and room for root growth. (The soil is indeed a gritty-mix type, though it may look a bit different as I used Napa Oil-Dri and perlite instead of turface/granite.)
Bright light will be the challenge but I'm working on finding a solution.
In the immediate/short-term, would you recommend I:
a)tip-prune any new growth this summer
b)cut back hard now
c)wait until I've been able to get it outside for at least a few sunny months and only then consider any sort of pruning/cutting back?
If it doesn't even make sense to talk of pruning/shaping until after I can guarantee some strong, outdoor growing seasons - then I can wait. Just hoping I can avoid an 8ft tall wobbly monster that requires traction to keep upright...
To me, any tree that can't support itself and needs rigging to keep it upright is not pretty to look at. Fortunately, I don't get fixated on a perfectly straight trunk, so I regularly prune fast growing plants or those that naturally flop over to stiffen them up. A 6" stick of a given diameter is much more difficult to bend than a 16" stick of = thickness. Tree trunks are no different, so if you shorten yours it automatically becomes more rigid. After you prune, you can train a newly emerging branch to the vertical, or prune an existing branch back to a bud facing up for a fresh leader.
The rewards we get from growing can be expanded via the application of what we learn. For instance, buying a plant and watching it grow can be rewarding. Watching it die because of root congestion or a high level of salts accumulated in the soil isn't; so learning how to eliminate those conditions that induce decline is a reward over and above just watching a plant grow. Taking control over how a plant is to look, at least for me, also adds another level of reward. The more I learn and apply, the more rewarding growing gets.
Because I recognize how much more reward there is to be had from learning how to manipulate your plants and physically create something pleasing to the eye while keeping them healthy over the long term, I can get excited about sharing with you the things that have helped me increase what I am able to take from the growing experience ...... which is why I'm here instead of parked in front of the TV. THIS is rewarding - TV isn't. ;-)
If the tree has recovered from the repot, you could cut it back if you like to stiffen and hopefully force some branching. I think if you remove the top 4 leaves, it will leave you with a nice cluster of leaves with short internodes. Typically and for tropical/sub-tropical trees in general, you want to do your hardest pruning in late spring (Mem Day or so, for you). This allows you to remove all the lanky growth that comes over winter, and to keep the nice growth with short internodes that occurs during high light periods after Mem Day.

Gaudet Assistant Examiner-Ronald L. Frinks Attorney-Waters, Roditi, Schwartz and Nissen ABSTRACT: A device is provided for applying selective and general hypothermy to and reheating of a human or animal body through the common integuments thereof, the device being provided with hollow elements made in a shape corresponding to that of the body surface to be treated. A heattransfer medium is supplied to the hollow elements which are disposed on the side facing the body surface under treatment and are provided with openings facing the body surface to allow heat-transfer medium to emerge in uniformly distributed jets at right angles onto the surface being treated.
PATENTH] JUN28 197i SHEET 1 [1F 2 DEVICE FOR APPLYING SELECTIVE AND GENERAL HYPOTHERMY TO AND REHEATING OF HUMAN BODY THROUGH THE COMMON INTEGUMENTS THEREOF This application is a continuation of prior copending application Ser. No. 614,262, filed Feb. 6, 1967, now abandoned.
This invention relates to devices used for both selective and general hypothermy applied to human or animal body through the common integuments thereof, use of such devices being preferably made in medical practice for rendering bodily tissues e.g., the brain more endurable to oxygen deficiency (anoxia), in surgical operations on an open heart without applying an artificial blood circulation apparatus, as well as in craniocerebral surgery, for local cooling of extremities affected by thrombosis of arteries, for treating complications resulting from acute anoxia of tissues, for eliminating hypothermy of the body, and in some other cases.
Known in the art are devices for performing selective and general hypothermy applied to man or animal through the common integuments thereof, wherein a heat-transfer agent while circulating inside hollow elements located nearby the surface of the patient's body, is capable of thermal interaction or interchange therewith through the walls of said hollow elements (cf. Great Medical Encyclopedia, 2nd edition, vol. 7, p. 243).
The aforementioned devices are made as blankets (thermosuits") provided with double walls where between the heattransfer agent is circulating. Having passed through the "thermosuit" the heat-transfer agent passes to the heat-exchanger of a refrigerating machine for subsequent reuse.
The device described above, however, suffers from the disadvantage that the heat exchange process between the patients body and the thermosuit" proceeds slowly which results in that the necessary level of general hypothermy is attained only in l or 2 hours whereas an isolated high hypothermy of the brain cannot be obtained at all.
By making use of apparatus for artificial blood circulation one can quickly lower or raise the temperature of the whole body or of a certain part thereof, e.g. the head.
However, a number of disadvantages are inherent in the aforesaid apparatus which reside in the fact that some 5 liters of donor's blood and blood substitutes are needed for their functioning, the blood to be used should necessarily be rendered incoagulable with heparin; moreover, the application of said apparatus oftentimes leads to some complications occurring in the patient being treated, such as haemolysis, thrombocytopenia, fibrinogenopenia, disturbance of electrolytic balance of the organism, embolism, as well as variation in the vascular tonus. Furthermore, the known apparatus for artificial blood circulation fail to be applied in emergency cases on account of great technological difficulties offered thereto.
Some other applicances made use of heretofore for reducing the temperature of the human body, such as cold baths, ice bags, and the like are bulky, difficult in use, unreliable, hard to control and need much time to attain the required level of hypothermy.
It is an object of the present invention to eliminate the above-mentioned disadvantages.
It is another object of the present invention to obtain both selective and general hypothermy not only under stationary conditions (at an inflrmary) but in a first aid service, too.
It is likewise an object of the present invention to provide such a device that would be capable not only of cooperating with a refrigerating machine but be operative from a source of heat or cold which makes use of a heat-transfer fluid possessing the necessary temperature and fed at the required pressure.
It is a further object of the present invention to obtain a high selective hypothermy e.g., of the cerebral cortex, the temperature of the rest of the body being maintained at the desired level.
It is a specific object of the present invention to provide a device for both selective and general hypothermy of man or animal applied to the common integuments of the body or of any part thereof, e.g., of the head, by means of a heatexchange device which is capable of effective thermal interaction or interchange between the surface of the living body being treated and the heat-transfer fluid, enables the surface under treatment to be kept under visual observation and be accessible freely.
Said object is accomplished due to the fact that the present device is given a shape approximating the shape of that part of the body which is to be treated with said device, whereas hollow elements thereof, on their effective side facing the body in the course of heat exchange, are provided with openings for the heat-transfer fluid to emerge in distributed jets which are capable of directly acting upon the body surface being treated, preferably at right angles thereto, whereby a forced convective heat exchange is attained.
It is advantageous that in the present device the hollow elements be spaced somewhat apart from one another so as to gain free and unobstructed access to the surface being treated and. to keep it under visual observation. Apart from this, such an arrangement contributes to a more effective heat exchange between the heat-transfer fluid and the patients body since the former is rapidly taken off the surface being treated.
Provision is also made in the proposed device for projections located on the side facing the surface being treated in the course of the heat exchange process so as to provide some gap between the device and the surface involved and, consequently, to obtain jets of a present length.
For the purpose of greater economy in operation of the proposed device as well as for reusing the heat-transfer fluid by reiterative circulating through the device, the latter comprises a receiver or header for the heat-transfer fluid, said receiver or header being located on the side opposite to the surface under treatment and being preferably made from a material possessing low thermal conductance.
Given below is a description of the present invention and exemplary embodiments thereof with due reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein:
FIG. I is a side diagrammatic view of the device for applying hypothermy to and reheating of the human brain through the common integument of the head, as made of tubes according to the invention;
FIG. 2 illustrates inside elevation an alternative design of said device featuring a space formed by two hemispheres made of a synthetic material for the heat-transfer fluid to pass;
FIG. 3 shows said device when connected to a source of cold (or heat) provided with an automatic control system of a cooling or heating process.
In the description of the particular embodiments of the invention disclosed hereinabove, specific narrow terminology has been resorted to for the sake of clarity. It should be understood, however, that the present invention is in no way limited to the specific terms so selected and that each such term covers all equivalent elements operating in a similar manner and employed for solving similar problems.
Referring to the drawings, the device for hypothermy and reheating of the human brain comprises, according to the invention, hollow elements i.e. tubes 1 (FIG. 1), a header 2, a pipe union 3 and a connecting hose 4 (FIG. 3) through which the heat-transfer fluid is fed to the device.
The tubes 1 on their side facing the surface being treated, are provided with openings 5 (FIG. 1) wherefrom the heattransfer fluid emerges, and a few projections 6 made as limiting lugs or bosses whereby a gap'between the inner surface of the device and the surface of the patient's head is obtained. The tubes 1 are spaced somewhat apart from one another.
In an alternative embodiment of the invention the present device is composed of two hemispheric elements 7 and 8 (FIG 2) which are made from a synthetic material.
Provision is likewise made on the top of said device for the pipe union 3 whereto the heat-transfer fluid feed hose is connected. A hemisphere 7 which in the course of the heat exchange process faces the patient's head, is provided with the openings 5 for the heat-transfer fluid to emerge, and with a few projections 6 by which the requisite gap between the inner surface of the device and the surface of the heat is attained. To make the surface being treated freely accessible and visually observable as well as for unobstructed removal of the heattransfer fluid, provision is made in the proposed device for slits 9.
Represented in FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing the connection of the device for selective hypothermy and reheating of the human brain through the common integument of the head, to a source of cold (or heat) provided with an automatic control system for the cooling or heating process. As can be seen from the FIG, the hose 4 with one of its ends communicates through the pipe union 3 with the header 2 while with the other end of said hose is connected to the source of cold or heat, vizla refrigerating unit provided with a heat-exchanger or a bank of semiconductor thermoelectric generators 10. The heat interchanger or the bank of thermogenerators 10 is connected to a centrifugal pump 11 which, in turn, communicates with a receiver 12 of the heat-transfer fluid. Said refrigerating unit or said bank of the thermoelectric generators I is likewise connected to an automatic system 13 for regulating the temperature of the heat-transfer fluid. The automatic system 13 comprises temperature pickups, driving stages, amplifiers and power units; (not shown). The system 13 is capable of maintaining the temperature of the heat-transfer fluid exactly at a prerequisite level.
The device of the present invention functions as follows (FIG. 3). To perform the hypothermy of, say, the human brain the patient's head is placed within the receiver 12 of the heattransfer fluid and onto a rest M whereupon the device is brought close to the head. A specified gap between the device and the patient's head is provided due to the presence of the projections 6 located on the inner surface of the device and a holder 15 which allows the device to be set in any position with respect to the patients head. The device is articulated to said holder 15 by means ofajoint 16.
The aforesaid pump is intended to deliver the heat-transfer fluid via the connecting hose to the source it) and further on through the hose 4 to the hollow elements, i.e. the tubes 1, wherefrom the heat-transfer fluid is distributed as jets from the openings onto the surface of the patient's body to be treated, preferably at right angles thereto, the fluid having a preset temperature and being fed at a necessary pressure. The used heat-transfer fluid is passed through a strainer 17 located in the receiver 12 of the heat-transfer fluid and passes to the centrifugal pump 11 which delivers it to the heat-exchanger or the bank of the thermoelectric generators where the heattransfer fluid is cooled (or heated), whereupon the entire working cycle is repeated.
The advantages of the device, according to the invention, are as follows.
The proposed device is capable of attaining a high rate of cooling or heating (up to 2 C. per 5 min.) of the whole body or a part thereof, e.g. the cerebral cortex, the treatment being effected through the common integument of the body, the temperature of the rest of the body being maintained within the safe limits of+32 to +35 C.
The design of the present device enables the surface under treatment to be under visual observance, gives a free access thereto and makes possible the application of hypothermy at. any position assumed by the patient's body or the part thereof being treated.
An effective heat-exchangeprocess by the proposed device results in low persistence of both the cooling and the heating procedures which makes it possible to provide a reliable automatic stepless regulation of both processes through following a preset programme, a quick transition from cooling to heating and vice versa as well as a prolonged retention of the temperature at a preset hypothermic level.
Moreover, the application of the present device for obtaining hypothermy through the tegminal tissues of the human body when performing surgical operations involving the arrest of blood circulation, needs no donor' s blood or blood substitutes, and cuts the postoperative period of a hospitalization term by 10 to 12 days.
Though this invention has been described hereinbefore with reference to the preferable embodiment thereof, it will be understood that minor changes and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, as will be readily understood by those skilled in the art.
We claim:
l. A device for applying selective and general hypothermy to and reheating of a human or animal body through the common integuments thereof, said device comprising: a plurality of spaced hollow elements having a collective shape corresponding to that of the body surface to be treated, a header coupled to said hollow elements, means to supply a heattransfer medium to said header and thereby to said elements, said elements having inner openings facing the body surface to be treated and including internal projections for contact with the surface to be treated to position said openings above said surface for allowing the heat-transfer medium to emerge from said hollow elements in uniformly distributed jets directly acting on the body surface being treated at approximately right angles thereto, a receiver for receiving and collecting the medium after contact thereof with said surface, means for recirculating the collected medium to said header from said receiver, and means between the latter recirculating means and said header for varying the temperature of the medium in the course of recirculation thereof from said receiver to said header.

Math-Intensive Reports with GNU Emacs and Calc, Part 1
I'm trained as an engineer, and I work in the structural analysis field. As part of my job, I have to perform structural stress analyses and document the results in reports. For me, GNU Emacs has solved several longstanding problems related to the authoring and publication of such reports.
The unique situation that engineering analysts like me encounter is preliminary engineering calculation reports must be written at specific points in time as an engineering project evolves. These preliminary reports must be complete and accurate relative to the current state of the design, even if the design itself is still incomplete and in flux. Such reports are required by contract to be delivered to design review meetings as an integral part of the in-process documentation of a design. They are checked by the customer's representatives, and if problems are found (either with the hardware as exposed by the analysis or with the analysis report itself), they must be corrected right away. This is a different matter considering the problem of writing papers whose accuracy is checked only once before publication in a scholarly journal.
I know other engineers (of whatever specialty area) experience the same problems, and I believe they will be interested in learning about useful software tools that can solve them. In fact, almost anyone who needs to write reports documenting on-going calculations should find this article to be of use.
I have only recently started using Emacs. In fact, this article evolved from numerous small text files I'd made for testing various aspects of Emacs. For years I had been intrigued by what I'd heard about it, but I also felt intimidated by its legendary size and complexity. Three things finally compelled me to buckle down and try Emacs. The first was my discovery that Emacs is actually quite small compared to the average late-1990s word processor installation. The second was a sense of revulsion that overcame me when my favorite word processor, WordPerfect, was consigned to the scrap heap of history by a notably inferior product being pushed along by a marketing juggernaut. The third and most important was calc.el, the Elisp Calc math package. Today, having become fairly comfortable with Emacs+Calc, I am not looking back.
If you do math, you probably recognize that it's not only about the numbers. It's about your assumptions, your mathematical model of reality, your results, your interpretation and understanding of them and your ability to make them clear to other readers. It's about leaving behind a record of what you did and why you did it, so others can review, comment on, criticize and update what your work. Only in this way can a calculation carry any significance. In short, I am talking about a report.
Whether it's figuring out your car's gas mileage or the best way to intercept an incoming asteroid, you need to keep a record for yourself as well as for others. Therefore, you need to write a report. It may be only a few sentences, or it could be a thousand pages. It may be only for yourself, if you think you might have trouble remembering what you did, or it may be to convince NASA authorities to accept your science payload for a ride on the Space Shuttle. While you alone are responsible for calculating your car's miles per gallon, your calculations of the structural integrity of a Shuttle payload affect, and are affected by, a great many people. In cases like these, a formal report is absolutely required.
The great bugaboo with all such reports, however, is the need to track changes. The calculation results need to be updated every time design changes are made, and the report must be reissued for design review meetings. What kinds of design changes? Many: changes in dimensions, material specifications, the manner of attaching and fastening parts, numbers and sizes of bolts and screws and estimated loading cases, to mention a few. In an engineering design project, redesigns come almost hourly in the early phases. Later on, as the design becomes more mature, things stabilize a bit, and the rate at which design changes occurs drops dramatically. The problem is, by this time in the project, you have generated many pages of extremely detailed analyses. Coping with even a minor change can set your publication date back by weeks. Keeping a stress calculation report current, based on the latest design information, is a massive headache. Enter Emacs+Calc.
Emacs is described by its author as an "extensible, customizable, self-documenting real-time display editor". Emacs is written almost entirely in its own version of the Lisp language (Emacs Lisp, or elisp). Elisp is a general-purpose programming language. Almost all of Emacs' built-in editing functions are implemented as calls to a predefined library of elisp functions. Emacs is extensible because expert users can write full-fledged application program libraries in elisp. Once a useful elisp library or application program has been written and tested, it becomes available to any user of Emacs, whether or not he knows elisp. Indeed, the Emacs distribution comes with a great many elisp packages, and many more are available from various sources on the Internet.
If you have ever used the Autocad drafting package, you'll know that it also uses an embedded version of Lisp (Autolisp) as a medium for writing all kinds of extensions. There is a lively trade in Autolisp libraries and applications among the worldwide body of Autocad users. Not all of these users know how to write anything at all in Autolisp, but one doesn't need to know Autolisp simply to use an Autolisp add-on package. It's the same way with Emacs and elisp.
Using elisp software, it is possible to use Emacs as your primary user interface to a computer system. Emacs' elisp packages make it possible to:
send and receive e-mail;
post and read NNTP news messages;
launch programs on both local and remote computers;
send data to programs and view the output;
browse the World Wide Web;
upload and download files with FTP;
remotely operate computers via Telnet or SSH;
fill out on-line forms and interact with databases;
create gorgeous print documents with LaTeX or groff;
create and manipulate XML data and documents; and
perform simple and fancy mathematics.
All this is done without leaving Emacs.

December is here, and with it, so are the single-digit temperatures. Many of us know how unbearable the cold can be during the dead of winter. Whether you're dealing with it on your daily commute, outside taking the dog for a walk, or trying to get some groceries, the cold has a way of making you just want to get back to the warmth and comfort of your home. But, for many, this problem persists even when they're home. Digi's customer, Heat Seek NYC, wants to make this a problem of the past.
For those at the mercy of a landlord, resolving heating issues can be a lengthy and bureaucratic process. Did you know NYC handles over 200,000 heating complaints every year? In order to provide proof of poor heating, tenants are tasked with manually recording the temperatures of their apartments.
A group of New York City residents recognized this as a major public issue and founded Heat Seek NYC to efficiently address this overwhelming number of complaints and ensure no New York City resident has to spend winter in a cold home.
Their wireless sensor system automatically records apartment temperatures– streamlining the way NYC handles heating complaints and solves disputes between tenants and landlords.
Let's take a look and see how Heat Seek built this wireless sensor network.
The sensor network is built entirely with off-the-shelf components. The low-cost temperature sensors connect via XBee using DigiMesh technology to create a reliable network that can easily connect throughout a building. Then, the team turned a Raspberry Pi into a cellular gateway enabling it to transmit temp. data, which is sent to a server to be accessed by residents, advocates, and lawyers. Additionally, Heat Seek is working to give the housing department (HPD) access to data to assist building inspectors. As the team transitions from prototype to a production version of their system they're evaluating the ConnectPort X4 and Device Cloud for their connectivity and remote management needs.
This public record of heating complaints is used to generate The Cold Map.
After winning the NYC BigApps Challenge and a successfully funded Kickstarter, Heat Seek has had a busy 2014 getting the business off the ground. The goal is to install 1,000 sensors throughout Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the Bronx this year!
Not only does Heat Seek provide a system of accountability, but they also enable landlords to heat their buildings more effectively. Want to learn more about Heat Seek? Check out a demo and see how a landlord can use it to reduce heating violations and keep tenants warm.

Background The objective of this paper is to review literature in order to calculate regional estimates of the average duration of time individuals maintain a specific high-risk behaviour.
Methods The review targeted the key populations of female sex workers (FSW), male clients of female sex workers (MCFSW), people who inject drugs (injecting drug users (IDU)) and high-risk men who have sex with men (MSM). To be included in the review the study had to provide information on (1) the time a person spent at risk until death or cessation of the risk behaviour, (2) the percentage of the sample who initiated the risk behaviour in less than a year or (3) the mean or median duration of the behaviour from a representative sample.
Results 49 papers were found for the FSW population describing the period of time FSW stay in sex work to be between 2.9 years (Asia) and 12 years (Latin America). Eight papers were found for MCFSW showing the duration of the risk behaviour in this category varying from 4.6 years in Africa to 32 years in Asia. 86 papers were reviewed for the population of IDU showing that the average time a person injects illegal drugs varies from 5.6 years (Africa) to 21 years (South America). No information was found for duration of high-risk behaviour among MSM; instead, the definitions found in the literature for high- and low-risk behaviour among MSM were described.
Conclusions There is high variability of estimates of duration of high-risk behaviours at regional level. More research is needed to inform models and prevention programmes on the average duration of time individuals maintain a specific high-risk behaviour.

Trane, RUUD, Lennox, Kenmore: how do you make a decision?
I live in a flat roof row-house in DC with flex ducts in a crawl space; and I now need to replace the package unit on my roof that heats and cools only the 2nd floor (approx 800 sq'); my current system has a cracked hear exchanger. We've been visited by nationals and local independents but no one has recommended the same machine. What direction would you recommend:
RUUD RRRL-C-024 (16 SEER residential, limited Lifetime HX)
Lennox 15GCSX-024 (15 SEER res, 20 yr HX)
Rheem RRPL (14 SEER)
Rheem RQPM (14 SEER)
Trane 4VCC3024BIO64A
Trane XL14C (14 SEER, 20ys HX)
Goodman GPG (15 SEER, 20 yr HX)
Kenmore (14 SEER)
Carrier (14 SEER)
We are leaning towards the Trane XL14C (14 SEER, 20ys HX), simply understanding the value of a long warranty on a heat exchange and a stainless steel HE. Any other thoughts on any of these machines would be greatly appreciated. -O.
I assume you are speaking of a gas/electric package system.
What size is existing-both AC and furnace((BTUs and efficiency please)?
Not a fan of Goodman products period. Have no idea what HVAC company holds the Kenmore contract but would not buy HVAC or a hammer from Sears.
What are the price differences between Trane, Rudd, Rheem models.
The Trane is a very nice unit-will require a true two stage thermostat for best operation. Same unit is available from AmStandard, sister company, and sometimes at a better price.
FYI Rudd and Rheem are same as they are sister companies.
You do want ST ST heat exchanger.
No model number provided for the Carrier.
Trane or Rheem, Trane is the best and costly. But, you get what you pay for. Rheem is my #2 brand that I call my builder grade. Compared to Trane's design and standards, Rheem is builder grade, but still quality. Look at the price and decide. But, if this is home for a long time, Trane!!
I would disagree with the blanket statement that Rheem is builder grade quality. I realize poster just refers Rheem to this adjective as compared to his "best brand", Trane. It is not a brand as well recognized as Trane mainly because they don't have the advertising budget. Not always cutting edge and with all the fells and whistle either. But overall solid HVAC with good quality. I have said many times that Rudd/Rheem are one of the most underrated and overlooked brands in the residential HVAC marketplace.
Stay away from Sears. You will pay a higher price and likely to get a poor installation.
A quote is not complete unless the complete model numbers of all the components are specified. Don't work with any contractor who refuses to provide this information.
I would look at the two ton units quoted by Trane and Rudd/Rheem. Pay attention to the heating BTUs of each unit as well as features, warranty, ST ST heat exchanger, dealer reputation, and of course cost.
I like the two stage heating and of course believe your existing unit is oversized on the heating side. And to be clear, you will need a good two stage thermostat to handle the heat stages for full functionality.
Good Luck
