Winter storms...
How are you all doing up north,with the ice storms,and all? I notice that even Dallas had ice. This is weird,to me,as all we have had here is a lot of rain,and way above normal temps. In fact,tonight,it is supposed to finally get colder. It has been in the 50's here,all during the ice storms. The really weird thing is,it is snowing in Virginia,just one state above me! Phil
Yes, Phil, Dallas got it pretty good. I was surprised that the tree damage was not as bad around town as it is at my house. It may be worse in the northern suburbs, I haven't been there. It seems like the problem was mostly the city being paralized by the sheets of ice and sleet on the roadways. The streets are mostly thawed now, though. Everyone's electricity is back on, too.
Ice storms are not the usual occurance for us. The last big one we had was on New Year's Eve in 1979. There was a lot more tree damage then.
Oddly enough, here in southern Ontario we currently have much less winter than many parts of the US. We had about 8" of snow in early December, but most of it melted last week and grass is green again. There will be lots to come though, and the advantage we have over many American locales is that we have copious equipment to clear roads. Snow removal (and road repair resulting from winter damage) takes a big chunk from municipal tax revenue. Gotta love it - or go crazy complaining.
In the North we keep our 80 dgr weather for summer. We are now in the cold half of the year. Trees will have leaves again starting in 4 months. The yard is all tidy, we had a 1 inch cover of snow which melted, now a liitle white dusting every day of this week. Most days are below 32, nights in single digit.
I must add I have hosta seedlings growing in 80 dgrs humid weather in my basement under lights though. So I do hosta gardening 12 months of the year, independent of weather! Bernd
Currently -26C (thats -16F) as I write this with perhaps 10 cm (4 inches) snow cover. All seems normal to me though the current temp is below average but certainly not unheard of.
Hostas are all sleeping and they are made to take this kind of winter weather.
As for humans ... well ... we do know what to expect:)
We are not in the frozen north but by golly it sure seems like it this year. We got caught in the last round of storms here in the Ozarks and still have about 4 inches of snow on the ground, with the temperatures not much above freezing, if at all, and single digits at night. It's unusual for us, we seldom have snow or cold like this before January in lower Missouri.
Looking like more snow to come, too, but I am grateful for it on one level as it protects the plants from the dry cold we usually get, even tho I hate driving in it. It does keep me from feeling guilty about not working in the garden!
Getting a lot done on the walking sticks, leather bags and jewelry we do in the winter, tho!
Regularly into the teens at night here which is January weather. Ground is crunchy and slightly frozen. Heading into heavy snow Saturday night most likely followed by rain and freezing. Sounds like a recipe for falling branches and power outages. I bought a generator and a transfer switch so I can run the furnace, refrigerator and a few other things. Right now it looks like a good investment. Toughing out cold weather without power is no fun.
We have had it really mild so far this winter with only one snow day and two frosts all back in November, there has been a "high" sitting over Europe and it has been funnelling warn air from near the equator keeping us in the low to mid teens Celsius the norm would be 5-8 C .
All change tomorrow though as a series of wind storms are to hit on sat, sun and tues we are expecting gusts of 70- 90 mph nothing too unusual for an Irish winter in the north west, might be a little snow too.
Methinks it will be a weekend for feet up in front of the fire with a nice single malt, nice.
Most of November was moderate here in central WI. I managed to get a lot of yard stuff done that I should have done in Sept. & Oct. Of course, that had me lagging on catch-up work inside. But December has been a whole nuther story. Very cold. A number of days with single digit highs and below zero lows. A day in the teens or lower twenties feels downright balmy by comparison! What's scary is that December weather has been more like a bad January or February. I'm hoping that we're paying the piper early & that we'll get some reprieve when real Winter gets here post solstice. If not, at least the days will start getting longer. Being a Sunbelter for most of my life, Wisconsin winters were a real shocker....not just the cold but Dark at 4:30 in the afternoon? That is just crazy!! Of course, that was exaggerated by having lived at the western edge of the Central time zone in Oklahoma and moving to the eastern edge of the Central time zone here in Wisconsin. (And being more of night person than a morning person.) Oh well--winter shall pass and in only 5 1/2 more months I'll be seeing the hostas peeking out after their very long winter sleep.
As far as 'storms', we've experienced mostly just the brutal cold and not much in the way of snow. I'm thankful for the bit of snow cover (around 2" so far) as a winter blanket is good.
I'm sick of overcast and cold. I need sunshine! That's the great thing about Texas - we have sunshine! I really miss it when we have a week or more of bad weather. I can't even take the dog out without a coat with a hood. It's been nasty.
It's supposed to be sunny on Sunday (fingers crossed).
That will help my attitude a lot.
bk, 12 degrees Fahrenheit the last 2 nights. My 'puppy' gets up at 6 AM like clockwork, gets fed and out the door (with me) when it is about 14 degrees. 6-8 inches of snow tonight, then rain, then back cold again.
My alarm clock aka Shasta.
Nice dog. I love labs.
Cleo has a 6 o'clock alarm clock, too. She licks me in the face when she first wakes up, which is about 5:30. I tell her to go back to bed, and that lasts about 30 minutes.
I just picked up a stray this week. I'm afraid I have another dog. I posted her on Craig's list, but got no response. I had the vet check for a chip, but she doesn't have one. I haven't posted any "found" signs, yet. I checked, but Chihuahua rescue is full. The SPCA doesn't take strays. I'm a little reluctant to take her to Animal Services.
Well, we'll see. I haven't named her, though.
bk, I understand why you think Shasta is a Black Lab, but she is not. She looked exactly like a Lab when a puppy, she now has some brown and a white patch on her chest, some on her haunches and a sucked-in stomach look of a boxer or bull dog. Her mother is a big silver and grey German Shepard (for sure) and her father is thought to be a Brindle Bull Dog as her sister has all the markings of one.
Shasta's mother. Found starving with six puppies in a barn and after being adopted by the foster home where the 11 year old son was the only one Shasta's mom didn't growl at when anyone came near her puppies. She was starving, but she stayed with her puppies and wasn't about to leave them.
Shasta's sister
Shasta as a puppy. She is smart, beautiful, demands affection, loves people (kids especially), is a great hunter and a genuine pain in the butt.
Shasta has a really great face. She looks smart.
I understand. Dan is my Shepherd Mix. He's 10. I got him from the SPCA when he was a pup. The vet thinks he's Shepherd and Chow. I think he also has lab in him, as he loves water. I also think he would be "fluffier" if he only had shepherd and chow and he is fairly smooth coated.
I love dogs. What can I say?
Very unusual weather for us here in Sweden.It's been like Fall and Spring. 1 dusting of snow.
Right now it's about 5 celsius.I will take global warming for this part of the world.You all are getting the snow that we were supposed to get.But it's still early...
Beautiful pups,love the pix.
Ahhhh, a lovely season to welcome a new family member. That fuzzy dog with the snow in his face is a winner....and my heart just melts when I see a mistreated dog saved from oblivion. My DH says we're full up at the Inn with two dogs, but if one shows up on my doorstep, he'll not be turned away.
The emaciated dog protecting her pups had a LOT of class.
While we're at it, if anyone has a supply of old blankets and such, the Animal Services might could use them to help keep the animals warm. Call them and see. Last time I took some warm covers down, I stood there and boo-hooed because of the "owner turn-ins." Each one seemed to be saying "There is some mistake here, I have a family, what am I doing here? They'll come and get me, I just know they will."
Yeah, Animal Services can be a really bad place. Dallas has improved a lot. We have a new huge facility. But still, there are too many pit bulls and chihuahuas and not enough owners. We have a large illegal alien population. They seem to love both and they don't believe in spay and neuter. They aren't too crazy about keeping them up, either.
The rescue organizations are doing a great job of turning the dogs into pets. The number of dogs put down is way down because of their efforts.
Yes, we have named her. So, she's ours. She's "Fuzzy". I guess the vet knew she was ours, too. He said bring her back and he would "shoot her up". He said you have to assume she's had no shots. She has what may be a scar on her belly, so he said she may have been spayed already. We just have to wait and see.
I can't get her to sit still long enough for a photo, though. I'll keep trying. That's the great thing about digital - if it's no good, you just delete it.
BK, sometimes the little canines become escape artists and find ways to get out. I think a lot of them sort of panic when they find themselves confined again. That may be a contributing factor to Fuzzy who could be a repeat rescue. The first time they would have spayed her. If the scar is still easily visible, I'd say it was in the recent past.....because my 7 year old doxie was spayed when she was 6 months old, and the scar is almost invisible.
Hopefully your new baby will know a good thing when she sees it, and stick with you and Cleo. I just love happy endings.
Here is my 1 year old doxie girl, who loves her toys and digging in the yard.....and raiding the wastebasket beneath my desk!
BK- congratulations on your new addition! What a big heart! Chloe must be going crazy with happiness to have a canine companion....let's hope she doesn't teach it how to terrorize the hosta! Lol
Fuzzy is a lucky doggie to have found a home, and just in time for Christmas..how lovely for all of you. Can't wait to see her pic! :-)
All the best,
BKay, what a honey she is. Unique two layer coat. I think she has some surprises in store for you as she grows and changes.
Merry Christmas to the new member of the family and to you as well.
We had a doozy of a rain and thunder storm. Lights went off just at dark last night. Stayed off about hour and half, we ate dinner by candle light. Humidity was outrageously high, and hung with us in the form of dense fog until the wind began. Now it is coolish/cold in the mid 40s. I had to buy more bird seed today, the wild birds are famished. Would you believe a male bluebird came to check out their old nestbox from the last spring? Now I'm sorry I already cleaned it out. But in case they come back, I got a supply of mealyworms for those insect eaters....a real protein Christmas dinner for them.
Thanks Mocc. Merry Christmas to you.
It's cold and damp here, too. Highs are in the low to mid 50's all week. That's about what it will be from now until we begin to get those nice days in February (hopefully).
I hope you enjoy your holidays.

Pour beer into a 6- or 8-cup pan.
Boil approximately 45 minutes until beer is reduced to 1 1/2 cups. (This intensifies the malt flavor considerably.) When reduced, take pan off the heat.
Add all the flour at once, beating into a thick, fairly dry dough.
Add grated cheese, salt, and pepper.
Quickly beat in the egg yolk.
Cool and refrigerate dough at least 12 hours.
When properly chilled, roll dough into 24 small balls, about 1 inch thick.
Make a depression in center of each ball and put in a touch of mustard and a piece of ham.
Close dough around the filling and again shape into a ball.

The ROAD TO NAP (life above sealevel)
A Kitesurfing video by keltron - 1,528 views
Withness the gathering of the dutch megaloop kings on the Red Bull N.A. P. at Zandvoort the Netherlands june 2012. N.A.P.* is a pure megaloop event organised by LEN10 and Red Bull. Focusing on pushing style, height and extreme performance.
For years LEN10 was the supreme emperor of the megaloop and time has come to see how everybody is catching up these days. From all over Holland, kiteboarders entered the arena at Zandvoort.
And this became without a doubt to most pushing, extreme and thrilling event we ever witnessed. We truly have some talent in the house. The guys with megatons of stainless steel balls went through to the finals and will fly to the Mystic House in Cape Town as a raward, the guys wit the little shiny marbles were locked away in containers below sealevel for history to forget.
Offer your virgins and gold to the gods.
Len10 is not alone anymore !
*NAP is an abbriviation of 'Normaal Amsterdams Peil' which stands for 'sea level' and sealevel (NAP) is a measure of the average height of the dutch ocean's surface. And we dutch guys like to jump high above it.

811 West Evergreen Avenue, Suite 204 Chicago, Illinois 60642 T 888.733.6741 | F 866.587.9158 www.pulmonaryfibrosis.org About Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis According to the National Institutes for Health (NIH) website, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) affects 200,000 Americans.4,6 IPF is a condition in which the lung tissue becomes thickened, stiff, and scarred.4 The development of the scar tissue is called fibrosis. As lung tissue becomes scarred and thicker, it loses its ability to transfer oxygen into the bloodstream. As a result, the brain and other organs may not receive adequate amounts of oxygen. In some cases, doctors can determine the cause of the fibrosis, but in most cases, there is no known cause. When there is no known cause for the fibrosis, and certain pathologic criteria are met, the disease is called idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis or IPF. A Snapshot of the Disease The disease affects 200,000 Americans;4,6 alarmingly prevalence has increased as much as 150% percent since 20011,5 The median survival rate is only 2 to 3 years, and more than 2/3 of patients will die within 5 years7 There is no FDA-approved treatment or cure for IPF An estimated 40,000 people die each year from IPF – one every 13 minutes (the same number that die annually from breast cancer) An estimated 48,000 new cases are diagnosed each year4 IPF can affect anyone, but the disease tends to affect men more than women; the mean age at the time of diagnosis is 60-70 but can occur at any age5 IPF is 5 to 6 times more common than cystic fibrosis, yet it remains virtually unknown to the public, many policymakers, and even some physicians About the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation The mission of the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation (PFF) is to help find a cure for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), advocate for the pulmonary fibrosis community both locally and in Washington D.C., promote disease awareness, and provide a compassionate environment for patients and their families. The Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation's ambitious agenda to further our mission includes: Substantially increasing funding for IPF research and creating partnerships between the academic research community and the biotech industry to help develop new therapies. Promoting disease awareness and addressing the growing educational needs of the IPF community by holding an international IPF conference - IPF Summit 2011: From Bench to Bedside - for physicians, patients, family members, and caregivers. Sponsoring a series of webinars to provide current information and research to physicians, patients, family members, and caregivers throughout the world. Establishing a Regional Affiliate Program that will allow the Foundation to reach out to the patient community, expand fundraising, increase advocacy, and enhance disease awareness. Continuing our commitment to strongly advocate for the IPF community both locally and in Washington D.C. Aggressively increasing public awareness and engagement through a series of public service announcements and an interactive social media campaign. Some of the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation's Accomplishments Creating our inaugural health care conference, IPF Summit 2011: From Bench to Bedside, to be held on December 1 – 3, 2011; Partnered with the American Thoracic Society to award $200,000 in new research grants; Expanded assistance to patients and families through the creation of active support groups in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom; Implemented social media campaigns to increase IPF awareness, engage patients and family members, and fundraise; Created an internationally respected Medical Advisory Board of prominent pulmonary physicians, nurses, and respiratory therapists to direct our research grants and educational activities; Awarded more than $2,900,500 in new research grants to leading medical centers in the United States; Provided $1 million to the University of Chicago to establish an Interstitial Lung Disease center; Created two national fundraising and awareness campaigns that have raised over $500,000.

The invention relates to flowmeters and solves the problem of providing a simple and reliable meter that has a wide measuring range and high measuring accuracy over the entire range, including its lower part in the region around values for Reynolds Number of about 200. According to the invention, there is a T-shaped oscillating element (8) inside the meter between a pair of projections (6, 7), which throttle the flow, causing separation and turbulence. The oscillating element is actuated upon not only by negative pressure forces, but also by forces of positive pressure, which provides steady operating conditions. (FIG. 4)
1. A flowmeter comprising a vane-like element (8) disposed in a fluid passage and arranged to oscillate about an axis (9) perpendicular to the direction of flow of the fluid, and means for converting the frequency of oscillation of the element into information about the magnitude of the flow, characterized by: a pair of fixed projections (6, 7) located substantially opposite each other and extending inwardly and generally towards each other from an interior wall of the passage for producing local throttling of the effective flow area of the passage and attendant separation and turbulent flow downstream thereof over the entire measurement range of the meter, and said oscillating element including a first laterally extending portion (8a) located, when in a neutral position, in or closely proximate a plane parallel to the axis of oscillation, said plane passing through innermost ends of the projections, to establish two fluid flow branches between opposite ends of said first portion and the pair of projections, respectively, and a second elongate portion (8b) located in a plane containing the axis of oscillation and parallel to the main direction of fluid flow, the second portion being fixed to and substantially perpendicular to the first portion and extending downstream therefrom, whereby reinforcing forces having transverse components acting on the second portion and tending to rotate the oscillating element in the same direction are separately and simultaneously generated by fluid flowing through both branches, to thereby amplify the oscillatory movements of the element and widen its accurate measurement range.
2. A flowmeter according to claim 1, characterized in that each of the projections (6, 7) has its upstream side face located in a plane substantially at right angles to the main direction of flow.
3. A flowmeter according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the profile of each of the projections (6, 7) has the shape of a knife edge, the tip of which is close to its upstream face.
4. A flowmeter according to claim 1, characterized in that the projections (6, 7) and said first portion (8a) of the element have substantially the same thickness as measured in the direction of flow.
5. A flowmeter according to claim 1, wherein the projections and said first portion of the element are substantially coplanar.
6. A flowmeter according to claim 1, wherein the axis of oscillation is disposed substantially midway between the ends of said first portion of the element.
7. A flowmeter according to claim 5, wherein the axis of oscillation is disposed substantially midway between the ends of said first portion of the element.
8. A flowmeter according to claim 1, wherein said first portion of the element and the axis of oscillation are substantially disposed in the plane passing through the innermost ends of the projections.
9. A flowmeter, characterized by:
(a) a pair of fixed projections (6, 7) located substantially opposite each other and extending inwardly and generally towards each other from an interior wall of a fluid flow passage for producing local throttling of the effective flow area of the passage and attendant separation and turbulent flow downstream thereof, and
(b) a vane member (8) mounted within the passage for oscillation about an axis lying substantially within a plane passing through the projections,
(c) the vane member being generally T-shaped and including a first laterally extending portion (8a) lying substantially within said plane when the vane member is in a neutral position, and a second elongate portion (8b) intersecting the first portion and extending downstream therefrom,
(d) the axis being substantially disposed at the intersection of the first and second vane member portions, and
(e) opposite ends of the first vane member portion defining two fluid flow branches with the respective projections,
(f) whereby reinforcing forces having transverse components acting on the second portion and tending to rotate the vane member in the same direction are separately and simultaneously generated by oscillating directional changes of the fluid flowing through both branches, to thereby amplify the oscillatory movements of the vane member and widen its accurate measurement range.
In several technical fields there is a need for a simple and inexpensive flowmeter that is nevertheless accurate and reliable. A typical example of the fields in which a need exists for such a flowmeter is in apartment houses or a district of single-family houses, where demands for economies and a fair allocation of fuel costs between the different consumers have arisen as a result of sharp increases in the prices of fuel oil and other fuels during recent years. The demands just mentioned are not met by the known flowmeters containing a number of rotating parts. On the other hand, the requirements for simplicity are fulfilled by flowmeters that incorporate a vane-like or flap-like element that is set in oscillatory motion by the action of the medium flowing past it, the frequency of this motion being measured and converted to a measure of the flow.
The present invention relates to a flowmeter of the last-mentioned category. However, known flowmeters of this type have a number of serious limitations, the most important of which is that the measuring range, within which the accuracy of measurement has an acceptable magnitude, is rlatively narrow. This applies above all at low rates of flow, e.g. low values of Reynolds Number, a situation that is typical in systems for the distribution of central-heating water. Another disadvantage is that the actuating forces which set the flap-like element of the known flowmeters in oscillatory motion are so small tht use must be made of means that are delicate, and therefore unsuitable in this connection, for converting the frequency of oscillation to a measure of the flow. As an example of such equipment, reference can be made to U.S. Pat. No. 2,453,376, in which an arm connected to the oscillation shaft passes between a source of light and a photoelectric cell. Thus, there exists need for a flowmeter in which the oscillating element is acted upon by such large actuating forces that the transmission of signals can take place in another way, for example by inductive means.
The object of the present invention is to provide a flowmeter which combines all said advantageous characteristics. Thus, the meter must be of simple design and inexpensive to manufacture, it must have a wide measuring range and a high degree of measuring accuracy within all of this range. This last condition means in other words that the meter shall be able to operate, for example within a flow range, the upper limit of which is approximately 200 times higher than the lower limit, and for values of Reynolds Number between about 200 and 106. All these requirements have been fulfilled in a flowmeter according to the invention, the principal characteristics of which are that a pair of projections located opposite each other are connected to the boundary wall of the fluid flow passage and produce local throttling of the effective area of flow of the passage, so that separation takes place and the flow then becomes turbulent over the entire measuring range of the meter. The oscillating element includes a transverse portion located in or near a plane that is parallel to the axis of oscillation and passes through the projections, and a longitudinal portion located in a plane that contains the axis of oscillation and is parallel to the main direction of fluid flow, so that when the element oscillates between its end positions simultaneous directional changes will occur in the same direction in both branches of the flow passing between the element and each one of the projections, by which means the longitudinal portion of the element is subjected to force components located across the direction of main flow, which will amplify the oscillatory movements of the element.
Three embodiments of the invention will below be described in detail with reference to the drawing.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a flowmeter according to a first embodiment of the invention.
FIG. 2 is a cross-section through the meter, taken along the line II--II in FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 is a section taken along the line III--III in FIG. 2, the oscillating element being in its central position.
FIG. 4 corresponds to FIG. 3, but shows the oscillating element in or adjacent to one of its two end positions.
FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing an oscillating element according to a second embodiment.
FIG. 6 corresponds to FIG. 3 also, but illustrates a third embodiment.
The flowmeter has a housing 1, which at its ends has coupling nuts 2 and 3 for connection into a pipeline throuh which passes the fluid whose flow is to be measured. Housing 1 carries a transmitter 4, connectable through wiring 5 to circuit means (not shown) for converting electrical pulses into a measure of the magnitude of the flow. The converter may be of any known or suitable type and is not described here, as it does not constitute any part of the present invention. However, it should be mentioned that the electrical signal pulses from the transmitter 4 are suitably generated by inductive means, for example in that the transmitter contains a winding, which produces an electromagnetic field inside the meter. When the meter element, described in greater detail below, moves in the magnetic field cyclic changes in intensity will occur in it and these will be sensed by the transmitter. The frequency of these variations will be directly proportional to the frequency of oscillation of the element.
As shown in FIGS. 2-4, a pair of projections 6 and 7 are connected up against two oppositely located parts of the wall limiting the flow passage of the meter. These produce local throttling of the effective flow area of the passage. Close to the projections is the oscillating element 8 of the meter, the oscillation shaft of which is designated by numeral 9. According to the invention, the cross-section of element 8 as seen in a plane at right angles to the oscillation shaft 9, is substantially T-shaped. It includes a part 8a, located in or near a plane parallel to the axis of oscillation and perpendicular to the direction of flow of the medium. Downstream of this part of the element has a part 8b, located in a plane containing the axis of oscillation and parallel to the direction of flow of the medium.
According to the first embodiment of the invention illustrated in FIGS. 3 and 4, prt 8a and the axis of oscillation are in a plane passing through projections 6 and 7. This location of the oscillating element 8 has proved to be advantageous, but is not compulsory. This will be further commented upon below. FIGS. 3 and 4 also show that projections 6 and 7 have their upstream faces located in a plane substantially at right angles to the direction of flow through the meter (marked by an arrow in FIGS. 3 and 4) and that the profile of each of the projections has the shape of a knife edge, the tip of which is at the upstream face.
The operation of the meter described above is as follows. The throttling of the effective flow area of the passage produced by two projections 6 and 7 results in a separation close to them, so that the flow through the meter becomes turbulent in an area which begins slightly upstream of the projections and extends a considerable distance downstream of them. This results in the following two favourable effects.
One of the consequences of the turbulence, produced in both branches of the flow passing element 8, is tht the flow pattern will be constant down to very low values of Reynolds Number, approximately 200. In principle, the total actuating force will be equal to the sum of the two forces marked F1 and F2 in FIG. 4. Force F2 is the transverse component of the force which, as a result of the eductor effect generated in the position of the element shown, will produce a relative negative pressure. This function in itself is already known. On the other hand, what is novel is that the total actuating force will receive a contribution from the force component F1, generated in a corresponding way on the other side of the element, where there is instead a relative positive pressure. Since the total actuating force receives contributions in this way from both negative and positive pressures, a "weathercock effect" will occur, resulting in distinct oscillatory motions and, above all, in that a sufficiently large actuating force becomes available, even at low rates of flow. Stated in other words this means that the meter will have a wide measuring range, the lower limit of which will be at very low values of Reynolds Number. When element 8 passes its central position, as shown in FIG. 3, the effective area of flow will have its minimum value, i.e. the flow speed through both openings on each side of the element 8 will reach its maximum value. As the dynamic pressure is then at maximum, combined with the fact that the oscillating element always reaches its central position with a certain amount of kinetic energy, it is made sure that the turbulent flow pattern will always be maintained. The pressure conditions will be such that the central position will be completely unstable, i.e. there is no risk whatsoever that the oscillating element can stop in this position, not even momentarily.
The other advantageous effect resulting from an arrangement according to the invention does not relate to the width of the measuring range, but to the accuracy of measurement. The turbulent flow pattern gives a rectangular velocity profile within the entire cross-section of flow. It is true tha the area of the rectangle will vary as a function of the rate of flow, but its shape will be maintained substantially constant, which is synonymous with high measuring accuracy. The main reason for this is reduced boundary layers.
In conjunction with the explanation of the reasons for the increase of actuating forces attained by the invention, mention was made of the presence of a relative negative pressure on the one side of the middle part 8b of the oscillating element and a positive pressure on the other side. At low values of flow rate there will be a tendency for this pressure difference to equalize, due to flow round the top and bottom edges of the middle part of the element. It is possible to avoid such pressure equalization by designing the elements so that the top and bottom edges of the middle part are located immediately up against the inner wall of body 1. In cases where it must be expected that the medium flowing through the meter will contain foreign particles, for example grains of sand in water, the presence of narrow slots could involve a risk for such particles to get stuck therein and cause operational disturbances or, in the worst case, block the element completely. It is therefore more suitable in such applications to give the oscillating element the shape shown in FIG. 5. As can be seen, flange-like parts 8 c and 8d have been arranged above and below the longitudinal eges of the part 8b, which makes the mentioned overflow impossible in practice.
In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6 projections 6 and 7 have a rounded profile. In addition, the upstream boundary surface of the oscillating element is convex. Finally, part 8b of the element has at its free end a bulb 8e, which increases the positive force on the element.
A flowmeter operating according to the invention can be varied to a wide extent as regards the detail design of its various components. It is suitable, but by no means necessary, that the transverse part 8a of the oscillating element has substantially the same thickness as projections 6 and 7. Also, optimum operating conditions are often obtained when the transverse part of the element in its position of symmetry is substantially in the same plane as the two projections. However, since the general condition is that the oscillating element shall be within the area where the projections cause turbulent flow, it is realized that the oscillation axis of the element can be slightly upstream or downstream of the projections. Correspondingly, the length of the longitudinal part 8b in the direction of flow does not need to coincide with that of the turbulent area, but can be either shorter or longer. The inventive idea is utilized as soon as there is, with the aid of projections or equivalent means, produced a throttling that causes a turbulent flow zone within which there is arranged an oscillating element, the total actuating force of which is formed by the combined action of positive and negative pressures on both sides of the element.
A flowmeter according to the invention is of value in all connections where high measuring accuracy is required over a wide measuring range and, particularly, when the lower limit of this range corresponds to low values of Reynolds Number. Flow measurement in the food processing industry can be mentioned as a further example of a field of application. Here it is particularly advantageous that the simple design of the meter makes it easy to keep it clean.

Version space
A version space in concept learning or induction is the subset of all hypotheses that are consistent with the observed training examples.[1] This set contains all hypotheses that have not been eliminated as a result of being in conflict with observed data.
The Version Space algorithm[edit]
In settings where there is a generality-ordering on hypotheses, it is possible to represent the version space by two sets of hypotheses: (1) the most specific consistent hypotheses, and (2) the most general consistent hypotheses, where "consistent" indicates agreement with observed data.
The most specific hypotheses (i.e., the specific boundary SB) cover the observed positive training examples, and as little of the remaining feature space as possible. These hypotheses, if reduced any further, exclude a positive training example, and hence become inconsistent. These minimal hypotheses essentially constitute a (pessimistic) claim that the true concept is defined just by the positive data already observed: Thus, if a novel (never-before-seen) data point is observed, it should be assumed to be negative. (I.e., if data has not previously been ruled in, then it's ruled out.)
The most general hypotheses (i.e., the general boundary GB) cover the observed positive training examples, but also cover as much of the remaining feature space without including any negative training examples. These, if enlarged any further, include a negative training example, and hence become inconsistent. These maximal hypotheses essentially constitute a (optimistic) claim that the true concept is defined just by the negative data already observed: Thus, if a novel (never-before-seen) data point is observed, it should be assumed to be positive. (I.e., if data has not previously been ruled out, then it's ruled in.)
Thus, during learning, the version space (which itself is a set – possibly infinite – containing all consistent hypotheses) can be represented by just its lower and upper bounds (maximally general and maximally specific hypothesis sets), and learning operations can be performed just on these representative sets.
Historical background[edit]
The notion of Version Spaces was introduced by Mitchell as a framework for understanding the basic problem of supervised learning within the context of solution search. Although the basic "candidate elimination" search method that accompanies the Version Space framework is not a popular learning algorithm (for various reasons, including the issue of noise (Russell & Norvig 2002)), there are some practical implementations that have been developed (e.g., Sverdlik & Reynolds 1992, Hong & Tsang 1997, Dubois & Quafafou 2002).
See also[edit]
- Rough set. [The rough set framework focuses on the case where ambiguity is introduced by an impoverished feature set. That is, the target concept cannot be decisively described because the available feature set fails to disambiguate objects belonging to different categories. The version space framework focuses on the (classical induction) case where the ambiguity is introduced by an impoverished data set. That is, the target concept cannot be decisively described because the available data fails to uniquely pick out a hypothesis. Naturally, both types of ambiguity can occur in the same learning problem.]

I found a real beauty at the Goodwill. Revere Ware and copper bottom and this pot comes with a history a few dings and $3.99 out the door.<quoted text>
I don't know what that means, Ed. But, you reminded me that I need a new Whistling Tea Kettle, Revere Ware, so I found one almost exactly like the one I had...before I burned the bottom out of it. LOL! This one is alittle better, it has a copper bottom. I couln't believe that I found what I wanted, they are really hard to find and expensive, for a Tea Kettle. But, this was a good price and free shipping and I can't wait for it to get here. It doesn't take much to make me happy. LOL!
I'm excited because I've been looking for awhile and couldn't find one like I wanted and this time I did.
I know, it's a woman thing.:)
I know what I want, in most things, and I just won't settle for anything else and this time, I found it! I'm excited about it because it's getting harder and harder to find what I want, in anything!

Well, I'm not interested in damaged products that have been previously owned by Persons unknown, especially when it's something that can't be thoroughly cleaned and sterilized inside and out. A new one isn't cheap for a tea kettle, as I said, and Revere Ware is the "premiere" of tea kettles, but they're made in the USA and they've been in business a long time. So, it was well worth the money and it gives me peace of mind about the contents that I'll be drinking and the way it was heated.
They are usually about $40.00 and I found this one on sale for alittle over $20.00 plus free shipping for a limited time, so I was a "Happy Camper". I love bargains and this was definitely a bargain.

I see you shop for cheap stuff and know nothing about good quality products. Farberware is Chinese-made and is one of the poorest quality, cheapest products you can buy. PAY ATTENTION...Revere ware, NOT Farberware!
REVERE WARE has been around as long as I have and it is a quality Brand in Cookware, American-made and always has been. but, it's hard to find in the South, anymore. My guess is because it is NOT cheap and People can't afford it, when they can buy the cheap Chinese-made stuff at a fraction of the price of REVERE WEAR. Of course, you don't know what toxins the heat is releasing and you're ingesting, either. But hey, it's your Life!

FARBERWARE® traces its roots way back to the year 1900 when S.W. Farber, a tinsmith, set up shop on Manhattan's Lower East Side. There, in a small dismal basement shop, he pounded sheets of copper and brass into various shapes to make bowls, vases, etc. He continued to introduce various lines of giftware and accessories throughout the years in silver-plated, nickel-plated and chrome-plated finishes.
The year 1930 is the year in which appliances came into the picture. That was the year that S.W. Farber introduced the first FARBERWARE® percolator, thus beginning a tradition of quality and value in small appliance products that continues to this day.
S.W. Farber was an innovator in his field. In 1937, he introduced a device that kept coffee warm for hours after brewing - the "Coffee Robot." This was followed in 1938 by the "Broiler Robot," with a device to indicate when the product was ready to use. In 1954, he introduced a stainless steel electric fry pan with an aluminum-clad bottom and a removable probe (sound familiar?) which gave the consumer the ability to immerse the appliance in water (with the probe removed!) for easy cleaning. The "Open Hearth" smokeless broiler (Now this is really starting to sound familiar!) was "born" in 1962. This was innovative in that the heating element was below the food, rather than above, as in traditional broilers of the time.
Quality, classic styling, tradition, reliability, value ... these are attributes synonymous with the FARBERWARE® brand for almost 100 years. And these qualities are just as valid today! But we've gone one step further. We've taken the best of the past, combined it with the technology of today to give you the best of all worlds! So take a look at what we have to offer, and give it a try! We know you won't be disappointed!

I'm always amazed at all the Topix posters who are non-business owners who think they know exactly how businesses think, operate and that all of them exist simply to make their CEO's and owners rich. Most businesses are not like GM, GE, Microsoft, etc. A lot of them are struggling simply to survive in this economy and who are doing everything possible to keep from having to lay employees off. I'll admit, there are some greedy corporations out there, but most are not.

[Update 3: Sony told us the exact same thing, saying that "the game is still in development."]
[Update 2: Sony is saying that The Last Guardian is NOT canceled. Senior director of corporate communications, Patrick Seybold, shuts this down on Kotaku: "This is not true."]
[Update: Even more readers are contacting us to inform us of this message from GameStop. Reader Darren Hupke has a recording of this call.]
Canceled? We feared the worst when we heard that Team Ico was breaking up and going other places, but we were assured that work would continue on their next PS3 title, The Last Guardian. Canceled? I hope not.
This is far from confirmation, and we've reached out to Sony for comment, but we're already hearing from Destructoid readers that are getting calls from GameStop saying that The Last Guardian has been canceled. We've called a few GameStop stores and have heard the same. "Canceled by vendor" is what we're hearing.
Search the Gamestop site and you'll get "0 results" for the game's title.
No! Say it's not so!
Stay tuned. We'll pass the official along word as soon as we get it.view full story + comments

Upcoming Conferences and Events
Published October 10, 1995
Sunday's Raiders victory over Seattle was blacked out in the Bay Area, as there were more than 6,000 seats unsold for Sunday's game (Oakland Football Marketing Association). Columnist C.W. Nevius blames PSLs and poor advertising for the shortfall at the box office. Nevius writes the ad campaign implied "that you must show a tattoo at the gate to be admitted," and that the OFMA sold the idea of games at the "warm, fuzzy Oakland Coliseum" as if it were "a halfway house for psychos" (S.F. CHRONICLE, 10/10). Columnist Ann Killian notes the high prices don't help (SAN JOSE MERCURY NEWS, 10/9). The Raiders added 5,000 bleacher seats behind the visitor's bench, which Seahawks QB Rick Mirer called "a hostile environment" (TACOMA NEWS TRIBUNE, 10/9).

GMC Van Body Kits
Featured Body Kits Products
GMC Van body kits are exterior accessories that can be installed to upgrade and rejuvenate a outward appearance. After years of driving, the exterior components on many cars begins to look outdated. Any damage to a car's paint job or to the exterior parts themselves can depreciate a vehicle's resale value, making the use of body kits is just that much more important. A body kit can change a car look newer, without ever changing any of the actual mechanics of the automobile.
Some stylish GMC Van body kit products come with replacements for several highly affected exterior components, ground effects and side panels. These are the places of a car that are often damaged from daily driving, but they alone aren't the only pieces that can be easily fixed. Other custom exterior parts can be used to customize a car's exterior style, so GMC Van body kit can sometimes be tailored to a driver's specific needs. For an improved appearance that eliminates the poor looks came from years of driving, a high quality body kit can serve you well.

KOCHVILLE TOWNSHIP, Michigan — Saginaw will help Genesee County test a water treatment process that's proposed as part of a pipeline project to bring water from Lake Huron.
Genesee County is building a new water treatment plant in conjunction with the Karegnondi Water Authority pipeline and Michigan requires the proposed treatment process to be tested before the plant can operate, The Saginaw News reported (http://bit.ly/1AE5Zua ).
Testing will be done at a 180 million gallon reservoir in Saginaw County's Kochville Township that serves as a backup water supply for the city of Saginaw's system.
"We're looking to minimize the cost of (the) plant," Genesee County Water Plant Superintendent Kevin VanSickle said. "And we're testing this process for that purpose."
When completed, the pipeline will bring water to Genesee County's facility and Flint's water treatment plant. Since Flint broke away from the Detroit water system last year, residents have been unhappy with the smell, taste and appearance of water drawn from the Flint River.
Genesee County has continued to purchase water, but Flint and Genesee County are partners in the Karegnondi Water Authority.
VanSickle said a 31-foot-tall "pilot plant" will be delivered to Saginaw's reservoir site in early April. It will operate like a miniature water treatment plant, pulling out water and treating up to 80,000 gallons a day. Testing will assess how well the new plant might work.
Once it the pilot project is underway, VanSickle said the process is expected to take about three months. The Karegnondi pipeline is scheduled for completion in 2016. The tentative completion date for the new treatment plant, which will in Lapeer County, is the spring of 2017.
"It would simulate very closely to what their system would have to do in a pilot study," said Saginaw Water and Wastewater Director Kim Mason.

Carter v. Carter: Lil Wayne and Jay-Z's Complicated History
Why does this all sound familiar? We all remember that Lil Wayne threw shots at Jay-Z on "I'm Good," off Tha Carter IV, calling him "p---y," threatening to "take him out" and even vowing to kidnap Beyoncé. And now he dissed Jay and Ye's duo, The Throne, at the YMCMB pre-Grammys party this past Saturday (Feb. 11). But how did it come to this? Just three years ago, the two rap titans were cheesing on stage together at the Grammys during their performance of T.I.'s "Swagga Like Us." But their on-again, off-again rapport goes back years, through a roller-coaster ride of subliminal on-wax disses, dope collabos, interview insults and mutual praise. Click on for an in-depth history of Jay-Z and Lil Wayne's love-hate relationship. —Alex Gale
