I've had this said to me before in a few battles at school the kid is using an all legends team and im using my rag tag team used in game.
He says legends can't be beat i proceed to sweep his entire team with my Lucario he goes on and says i cheated becaus ei beat his legend i told him how i trained and he said that is cheating and i told him no its in game and such still Says cheating has something like this happen to any of you if so what have you said thought or felt about it?
How do you feel about Ev training?
When someone claims EV training is cheating, I like it. It's a simple way of knowing this person is an idiot and their opinions should be disregarded.

I'd suggest that you try beating his legendaries again with a team that isn't EV trained, but something tells me nothing would get through to the guy.
A void, the proud and sinister dream of being nothing, of being always something other than I am.
lol you fought a loser

They way I see it, there is no way to avoid EV-training unless you started to feed your pokemon rare candies from the moment you caught/hatched it or paid several visits to the Dojo in B/W2. The thing is that everyone is EV-training whether they do it consciously or not. You're pokemon will gain EV's from battles and those will go to their respective stats. Yet, those who choose not to properly EV-train their pokemon are putting themselves at an unnecessary disadvantage to keep their morals high even though GameFreak has subtly shown ingame that they acknowledge the existence of EV's and give players the freedom to manipulate them as they wish. So again, saying EV-training is cheating is a ridiculous and ignorant thing to say and you're only hurting yourself with such statements.
Those are my two cents, don't spend it all at once.
If you happen to have a DW Reuniclus or other members of its line, please don't hesitate to message me.

I beat a scrub and he got butthurt about it
As long as all stats, moves, etc. are within legitimate limits it's not cheating. Scrubs are just gonna scrub.
Don't get hit and hit it until it dies, in that order.
Kill it, carve it, wear it, repeat it.
Obviously playing the game casually is the PROPER way to play Pokemon!
Playing: Project Cross Zone
Waiting for: SRW OG the 2nd
Well I would think the people who said that are idiots since gamefreak put in items in the game to help ev training like viamins , featers and the power items thats proof that they want us to e train

Great massage

The renovations throughout the hotel and pool area are gorgeous.
I would recommend the Spa place a plastic bag (for wet swimsuits) into the lockers. I would also recommend they place a shaving razor next to the washcloth that is already inside the showers.

I don't think anyone is disputing Honda's "right" to produce a new bike but agree it kinds of reeks of the what Ducati got lambasted for. However, in the big scheme if you have one company which can and is prepared to spend this kind of cash and the other cannot then really it becomes a "chequebook" series rather than a race series. Yes maybe Honda will spend cash without finding a solution but by the looks of it they are prepared to keep spending until they do Yamaha probably doesn't and I would say Ducati probably doesn't either. Sounds like a recipe for great "racing" NOT. Reply Report abuse 3 agree 3 disagree

- Soft double-faced fleece is durable and warm
- Elastic binding at hood and cuffs help keep the cold out
- Wind flap behind zipper adds warmth

Too adorable!
- Familiarity: I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share
I bought this for a friend who's expecting her first son in just a few weeks! This little fleece is to die for. Any little boy would look adorable in this! The hood has an elastic 'brim' so it stays on the child. Perfect for the fidgety ones!
Adventure Mama
still our go-to baby fleece
now that fall is in full-swing in Virginia, Joey is in this fleece almost every day.
Adventure Mama
Hood covers ears and stays on!
Adventure Mama
Hood stays on!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
Single layer fleece is perfect for active babies. True to size, with a bit of room to layer over another outfit. Ours is on its second kiddo and still doing great after years of heavy use. Excellent choice for fall and spring, lightweight to keep on hand just in case. The best feature of this jacket is that the hood stays on! If the jacket is fully zipped it is nearly impossible for the baby to remove the hood, and their ears are covered. It is thin enough to not impede movement and exploration. Great little fleece jacket!

Stephanie Lazy Town Fakes Story
...her till she moaned and screamed her satisfaction. She had always been randy for him. Whenever he was nearby her panties would get wet but he had never seen her the sexual way. She had practically grown up before his eyes. A day did not pass when she wouldn't be caught stare at him with hungry eyes as did all the women of Lazy Town. Ever since Sportacus had come to town there was one lazy woman left in the town. He was truly sporting and expected the men of the town to show sportsmanship while their wives enjoyed rigorous exercises with him. Pulling her Pajamas over her satiated body Stephanie sighed and lay back on her lacey pink Dora the Explorer pillows. Sportacus had left no young or old skirt unturned except hers and of those who were considered below the fuck age. He took the rules of Lazy Town seriously; a superhero would never have an allegation of statutory rape besmirch his impeccable reputation. Watching the shadows dance and play on the ceiling of her bedroom, she grinned - well, today she turned eighteen and could legally be fucked out of her brains. Throwing the quilt aside, Stephanie jumped out the bed and headed towards her bathroom. As she went through her toiletries a devious plan began to formulate in her mind and added an extra spark and spring in her step. By the end of the day she would ensure that she would no longer be a virgin and suitor would be no other than Sportacus. Chapter 2 Roby Rotten ...

A Bit of Heaven In Cape Town
Spent four nights at this lovely, small hotel slightly off the beaten track of Cape Town, at the base of Table Mountain. The architecture is contemporary, the decor eclectic with an African flair.My room (#2) opened to a balcony that had a
beautiful view of Table Mountain to the right and Cape Town Central including the harbor straight ahead. The queen bed was very comfortable and the heated floors most welcome on the chilly July mornings. Complimentary breakfast served in the sunny dining area included a selection of fresh-squeezed juices, speciality egg dishes, brewed to order beverages, and freshly baked breads. Service by the staff was seamless and always with a smile. The hotel was spotless. The staff was very knowledgable regarding tourist venues and willing to make such arrangements. As the hotel is located in a residential area, I heard several dogs barking in the early evening (a bit annoying) but they did not awaken me during the night. If you or a member of your party is physically challenged, be aware I did not see wheelchair ramps or an elevator nor do I think the showers are wheelchair friendly. You will need taxis or a rental car as well. You can't walk to most of the typical tourist attractions. Despite these few drawbacks, I still rate this hotel five stars.
While a long walk (all downhill) to the Alfred & Victoria Wharf, do it. From there you can take the ferry to Robben Island (RESERVATIONS NEEDED), shop and/or board the Hop On/Hop Off bus or eat at one of the many great restaurants and save ~$10.

Portsmouth City Solicitor John Haas has taken steps to attempt to stave off the shadow of a lawsuit filed against the city, the City Health Department, its director Chris Smith, and Director of Environmental Services Andy Gedeon, on behalf of several citizens who own multiple properties, charging the city's rental housing mandatory inspection fee is unconstitutional.
Haas presented legislation to Portsmouth City Council to amend the rule and change the inspection from mandatory to voluntary.
The new wording reads in part, "A rental dwelling permit shall be issued by the code enforcement official, if upon inspection voluntarily permitted by the owner, occupant or other person in charge of the rental dwelling it is determined that the rental dwelling meets the requirements of this code or the owner signs a statement certifying the rental dwelling meets the requirements of this code."
Haas said the changes are not something he thinks the general public would have any difficulty with.
"They basic provide that the inspection of the rental property licensing program, any inspection will be on a consensual basis subject to inspections provided under a warrant should a warrant be necessary," Haas said. "The changes will require the city to obtain a warrant to perform an inspection unless either the tenant or the other consents to an inspection."
That inspection schedule will also change from every year to every three years to accommodate any legal matters.
The suit had been filed by Maurice Thompson of the Center for Constitutional Law, on behalf of James Ronald Baker, Nancy Ross, Darren Oliver, Baker Family Holdings, LLC, Radiant Sales, Inc. Howard LLC, and Oliver II Properties, LLC, in United States District Court for the Southern Division of Ohio, Western Division in Cincinnati on Thursday.
The specifics of the suit call for "declaratory judgment, temporary restraining order, preliminary and permanent injunction, actual and nominal damages, and other relief arising from the unconstitutional policies, practices, and threats of defendants city of Portsmouth, Christopher Smith and Andrew Gedeon. Defendants' policies, practices, and conduct threaten plaintiffs with irreparable harm to their rights under the Fourth, Fifth, and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution. The harm may only be remedied by a ruling from this court."
Haas said he believes the court will look favorably on the city for taking steps to remedy the assumed problem with the code. Haas also asked Council to put the item on the fast track and suspend the rule requiring three readings and to pass it Monday night because of time constraints.
"The reason for that is the court indicated that there was a motion for a restraining order against the city to proceed under our Rental Licensing Program," Haas said. "And rather than decide that, if the ordinance is changed that would alleviate the judge requiring to have the hearing, obviously reduce the amount of work and expense involved in defending that matter."
Council suspended the rules and immediately passed the ordinance to change the code.

Trane XL15i heat pump quote
Hi all,
Looking for any help, looking for a heat pump system for Massachusetts area and recently had a quote for a new Trane system. The house is around 2100 sq feet including finished and heated basement, wanted to get your opinions, thanks!
4TWX5036B1 Trane Xli 15 High Efficiency Heat Pump TAM7A0C42H31 Trane Hyperion Air Handler with Variable Speed
BAYEV Trane Heater
LS25 Line Sets
The price seemed high to me considering some of the other quotes I have seen on this forum as I have been lurking. We are awaiting quotes from a Certified Carrier dealer as well.
You need to get at least 5-10 bids. I went through this drill with our last home and got 10 bids. The prices were all over the place for the same equipment. The idea "throw a number out there and hope it sticks" does not work for the home owner's pocket book.
You are in an all electric situation?
This is primary home? Any other heating source?
You are replacing a 3 ton with a 3 ton?
What thermostat?
Size of heat strip?
New lineset?
How do you filter return air?
Assuming this is a normal replacement with easy access and you are sized correctly, this is a great system but the price quoted is ridiculously outrageous.
This post was edited by tigerdunes on Sun, Mar 30, 14 at 9:15
In the process of getting many quotes!
All electric situation, there is a gas line very close, as in, 200 feet away but the gas company wants $100 per foot to get the main line to the front of the house, so $20,000 is a tough pill to swallow, followed by then replacing everything with gas furnace, etc. I WISH we could do this.
Replacing a 3 ton with a current 3 ton unit, with no real issues from my knowledge with access. Based on all of your prior responses in previous threads Tigerdunes I have already inquired about what thermostat, size of heat strip and return air filter. Waiting to hear back.
Good to know my thoughts about the price seemed correct, I am awaiting 2 other quotes and will be contracting another Trane comfort specialist on Monday for an estimate. Thank you for both your inputs. I will update this thread accordingly.
As a side question, do you think the Carrier Greenspeed is overkill compared to this Trane unit? Assuming we get a better more appropriate price point for each.
Ok so the carrier dealer got back to us with I think a really competitive price for a Greenspeed system here is all the specifications and model numbers below:
Thermostat: SYSTXCCITC01
Price before rebates $13,600. After all current rebates the price is under $11,000.
Based on my prior research, should I be insisting on the F005 or F006 air handler? Any other thoughts or considerations I should think of?
Wrong air handler as far as performance/efficiency numbers.
You want the 005 or 006 air handler with the "L" suffix. See below.
6938465 Active Systems CARRIER AIR CONDITIONING INFINITY SERIES HP WITH GREENSPEED INTELLIGENCE CARRIER AIR CONDITIONING 25VNA036A**30 FE4AN(B,F)005L+UI 1200 875 705 35000 14.00 20.00 33400 12.00 31000 1 HRCU-A-CB 212 547 Yes

What size heat strip?
How will you filter return air?
Hi all,
Sq footage without heated basement is approximately 1550 sq feet. 17.2 cents is our rate including delivery charges.
I asked for the F005 which was then quoted at $300 higher but obvious noted improvements in efficiency as you laid out with the numbers. Heat strip will be staged 9 KW. Air filter he has listed is One (1) Carrier Model GAPABXCC2020 Infinity Air Purifier - is this the air filter?
The Infinity air purifier is an electrostatic air cleaner. Did you ask for this? If you don't have respiratory problems you could save some money and get a 4 inch media filter.
The electrostatic cleaners need some amount of maintenance. This one requires a cartridge replacement. Find out how much that will cost.
Here are the installation instructions to give you an idea how it works.
Here is a link that might be useful: Infinity Air Purifier for Fan Coils
In regards to the air purifier... we did not ask for it but they are providing a coupon for the full cost of the purifier in the rebates. The replacement cartridge costs around $80-100 by a quick google search, with no upfront cost, should I still go with the media filter?
My 16x25 4 inch filter cost $33 from my HVAC contractor. My filters last 12-18 months.
If you are really getting the purifier for free, then I would want to know how often does the cartridge have to be replaced and how easy is it to do the maintenance.

Arizona State Sun Devils
ASU's Todd Graham wary of Washington QB Keith Price
With the Washington Huskies coming to Tempe for a pivotal Pac-12 matchup Saturday, much of the focus is on running back Bishop Sankey.
That attention is understandable; the junior from Spokane is second in the nation with 899 rushing yards through six games and already has run for 160 yards or more four times this season. Containing him would go a long way toward a Sun Devil victory.
But ASU head coach Todd Graham is also very aware of the man who makes the Huskies' eighth-ranked offense go -- quarterback Keith Price.
"He's got a really live arm, a guy that makes everything work and extends plays -- that's the biggest challenge you have with him," Graham told Doug and Wolf on Arizona Sports 620 Friday. "He really extends plays, he maintains himself as a thrower and he's got one of the best running backs in the country standing beside him that he hands the ball off to."
Price, a senior from Compton, Calif., is a seasoned signal-caller -- he'll be making his 33rd career start Saturday, and he's Washington's all-time leader in completion percentage, passing efficiency and touchdown passes.
"He has an understanding that he has a lot of talent around him and he utilizes them," Graham said. "I'll be honest with you, the most talented team we've played to this point is USC, physically and (Washington) is right there with them. The receivers, the running backs, they're that talented."
But Graham didn't shy away from sharing his formula to a Sun Devil victory.
"That's the key to the game, can we get (Price) rattled? Can we force turnovers, can we do those things," he asked before again talking about Price's slippery nature.
"The way he extends plays is the challenge. You've got to stay on your man, you can't give up any cheap ones."

These are my newish mountaineering pants. These pants have a streamlined leg to avoid the leg swishing noise while you're trying to enjoy the peace & quiet of nature. The zipped legs allow for good thermoregulation. They don't have a built-in "powder skirt", so gaiters are helpful.I'm 5'10" & 145 lbs and wear a medium. I wear them hiking at 14,000 ft with temps of 0-20 F & winds of 20-60 mph, and don't notice the pants - a sign of great equipment. I would recommend these to anyone looking for a snow pant not intended for skiing, particularly for people heading to the winter alpine.

The use of liaison has been proposed to better integrate the product and assembly process. Two facets of integration have been addressed in this thesis. One is concurrent evolution of the process model with the product model and the second is associativity between product model and process model. A liaison data structure has been proposed, which is set of geometric entities, associated with one or more assembly process that acts as an interface between the product model and process model. As the liaison data is not available explicitly in the product model, a set of algorithms have been developed and implemented to identify and extract the geometric entities defined in the liaison data structure from assembly model. The proposed algorithms can identify and extract liaisons for riveting, welding, bolt fastening, screw fastening, adhesive bonding (gluing) and blind fastening. The developed algorithms have been implemented and tested. The process model needs to evolve with the product model concurrently so that any mistakes or infeasibility in the process model can be flagged right away. The use of liaison enables the construction of process model as the product model is fleshed out. A framework based on liaison has been proposed and implemented to demonstrate the concurrent evolution of product and process model. Linking the changes in the product model to flag the changes (or at least identify the need for changes) in the process model forms the associativity problem. The liaison has been used for maintaining associativity between the product and process model. A framework has been proposed for maintaining associativity between product model and process model that makes use of expert knowledge or tribal knowledge to track impact of changes in product model or process model. An aircraft wing box has been used as an example to illustrate and validate the proposed approaches. Finally the thesis concludes by summarizing contributions of the research and outlining future work. 2014-04-08T18:30:00Z An Extended Integrated Model Of Designing Ranjan, B S C http://hdl.handle.net/2005/2326 2014-06-20T09:44:54Z 2014-06-19T18:30:00Z Title: An Extended Integrated Model Of Designing Authors: Ranjan, B S C Abstract: Product success is a major goal of designing and design research. Designing involves developing systems. A system interacts with its environment to satisfy its requirements. Therefore, designing should involve developing the concept of both the system and its surrounding. Depending on how the concept of the system changes will impinge on the concept of the environment, and vice-versa; design must co-evolve the concepts of both the system and its environment to adapt them to each other. A comprehensive review of literature on designing to explore the use of system-environment view in designing revealed that while the concept of systems is used by many design models, implicitly or explicitly, the concept of environment is rarely used as an evolvable construct in designing. Activities, outcomes, requirement-solution and system-environment views play a significant role in product success. Thus, it is important to explicitly address these views in designing. Further, integration of these views is important for explaining various complex characteristics of designing such as requirement-solution co-evolution and system-environment co-evolution. Integration of views is important also for mapping the steps in design models using these views, so as to be able to characterize design models, or benchmark one design model against another. Literature has been reviewed to identify the constructs in these views that are essential for representing the design process. Srinivasan and Chakrabarti [2010] had earlier developed a model of designing by integrating three of these views: activities, outcomes, and requirement-solution. However, this model did not incorporate the system-environment view. In this thesis, a system-environment view is developed, with both the system and environment as explicit and evolvable constructs in designing. The thesis then proposed an extended, integrated model of designing which combines the constructs of the identified views of activities, outcomes, requirement-solution and system-environment. The proposed model is empirically validated using protocols from six design sessions; the sesessions had been undertaken well before the proposed model was developed.Validation involved checking whether or not instances of all the constructs in the model are naturally present in these design sessions, and whether or not every event in these design sessions could be described using the constructs of the proposed model. Further, the explanatory power of the proposed model is illustrated by explaining how system-environment co-evolution and requirement-solution co-evolution occur during the design sessions captured in the protocols. Also, a standard prescriptive approach to designing –Pahl and Beitz approach – is used to demonstrate how a design model can be mapped using the constructs of the proposed model–the first step to characterizing or benchmarking design models. 2014-06-19T18:30:00Z Novel Suspension Mechanisms For A Three Wheeled Mobile Robot Traversing Uneven Terrains Without Slip Tharakeshwar, Appala http://hdl.handle.net/2005/2368 2014-08-12T07:18:24Z 2014-08-11T18:30:00Z Title: Novel Suspension Mechanisms For A Three Wheeled Mobile Robot Traversing Uneven Terrains Without Slip Authors: Tharakeshwar, Appala Abstract: A wheeled mobile robot (WMR) will move on uneven terrain without slip if the length of the axle connecting two wheels can change or for a fixed length axle the wheels are allowed to tilt in a lateral direction. In this work, we consider a three-wheeled mobile robot with torus shaped wheels capable of lateral tilting. Due to the requirement of lateral tilting a two degree of freedom (DOF) suspension, one for maintaining contact with terrain and one for lateral tilting, is assumed to connect the wheels to the WMR body. Six concepts of two DOF suspension mechanisms are proposed. A WMR with these suspension mechanisms are modeled and two kinds of simulations, namely, direct kinematic analysis and inverse kinematic analysis are performed on several uneven terrains with and without suspension. Slip velocity, the path followed and the lateral tilt angle are estimated as a function of time. The force-angle stability measure is used to check the tip-over instability of the WMR on uneven terrain. It is shown that without the two DOF suspensions and with the wheels not allowed to tilt laterally, the WMR is not capable of traversing uneven terrains without large slip. When the wheels are allowed to tilt laterally with a two DOF suspension, the wheeled mobile robot slips very little. Based on least slip and less deviation from desired path, it is shown that the two best possible suspension mechanisms are the SFTA suspension and D4Bar suspension. Two prototype of three-wheeled mobile robot with these suspensions are fabricated using some components from a readily available commercial kit and with especially designed and manufactured wheels with the two degrees of freedom suspension. Simulations on an uneven terrain verify that the three-wheeled mobile robot can traverse uneven terrains with very little slip for three representative paths, namely a straight line, a circular arc and a path representing a lane change. Experiments with the two prototypes on physically constructed uneven terrain, very similar to the one used for simulation, confirm that the slip is significantly reduced with the two degree of freedom suspensions. The path of the centre of mass of the WMRs, projected on uneven surface, and the error from the desired path is presented for all the three representative paths. The simulation and experimental results clearly show that the three wheeled mobile robot with the novel two DOF suspension mechanisms can traverse uneven terrain with low slip. 2014-08-11T18:30:00Z Developing A Dialogue Based Knowledge Acquisition Method For Automatically Acquiring Expert Knowledge To Diagnose Mechanical Assemblies Madhusudanan, N http://hdl.handle.net/2005/2064 2013-06-20T09:40:24Z 2013-06-19T18:30:00Z Title: Developing A Dialogue Based Knowledge Acquisition Method For Automatically Acquiring Expert Knowledge To Diagnose Mechanical Assemblies Authors: Madhusudanan, N Abstract: Mechanical assembly is an important step during product realization, which is an integrative process that brings together the parts of the assembly, the people performing the assembly and the various technologies that are involved. Assembly planning involves deciding on the assembly sequence, the tooling and the processes to be used. Assembly planning should enable the actual assembly process to be as effective as possible.Assembly plans may have to be revised due to issues arising during assembly. Many of these revisions can be avoided at the planning stage if assembly planners have prior knowledge of these issues and how to resolve them. General guidelines to make assembly easier (e.g. Design for Assembly) are usually suited for mass-manufactured assemblies and are applied where similar issues are faced regularly. However, for very specific issues that are unique to some domains only, such as aircraft assembly, only expert knowledge in that domain can identify and resolve the issues. Assembly experts are the sources of knowledge for identifying and resolving these issues. If assembly planners could receive assembly experts' advice about the potential issues and resolutions that are likely to occur in a given assembly situation, they could use this advice to revise the assembly plan in order to avoid these issues. This link between assembly experts and planners can be provided using knowledge based systems. Knowledge-based systems contain a knowledge base to store experts' knowledge, and an inference engine that derives certain conclusions using this knowledge. However, knowledge acquisition for such systems is a difficult process with substantial resistance to being automated. Methods reported in literature propose various ways of addressing the problem of automating knowledge acquisition. However, there are many limitations to these methods, which have been the motivations for the research work reported in this thesis. This thesis proposes a dialog-like method of questioning an expert to automatically acquire knowledge from assembly experts. The questions are asked in the context of an assembly situation shown to them. During the interviews, the knowledge required for diagnosing potential issues and resolutions are identified. The experts were shown a situation, and asked to identify issues and suggest solutions. The above knowledge is translated into the rules for a knowledge based system. This knowledge based system can then be used to advise assembly planners about potential issues and solutions in an assembly situation. After a manual verification, the questioning procedure has been implemented on computer as a software named EXpert Knowledge Acquisition and Validation (ExKAV). A preliminary evaluation of ExKAV has been carried out, in which assembly experts interacted with the tool using the researcher as an intermediary. The results of these sessions have been discussed in the thesis and assessed against the original research objectives. The current limitations of the procedure and its implementation have been highlighted, and potential directions for improving the knowledge acquisition process are discussed. 2013-06-19T18:30:00Z

ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR Filed Nov. 9, 1959 'lll' lll INVENTORS DONALD E. TAKES MILDRED W. BOYD www T RNEY in a 'connector on a panel.
United States Patent O 3,091,748 ELECTRHCAL CONNECTOR Donald E. Takes and Mildred W. Boyd, Fort Worth, Tex., assignors to General Dynamics Corporation (Convair Division), San Diego, Calif., a corporation of Deiaware Filed Nov. 9, 1959, Ser. No. 851,836 Claims. (Cl. 339-65) This invention relates to coaxial connectors and more particularly to coaxial connectors tor rack and panel applications which will maintain positive and constant contact despite axial misalignments and error in proximity spacing of relatively movable mounting surfaces.
Coaxial cables used in rack and panel applications [are often blind mated. A cable end is terminated in a connector mounted on a rack and another cable is terminated When the panel is inserted into the rack lthe two connectors, if properly positioned, should mate to provide electrical continuity between the cables. However, difficulty is often experienced in properly positioning the connector mountings so that the conlnectors will mate properly. Even when properly aligned, some connections depend upon proximity of the mounting surfaces to maintain contact. There could be no tolerance in the proximity spacing of the panels. Others require a mechanical release before the connectors may be lun-mated. An unfavorable accumulation of manufacturing tolerances would result in axial or circumferential misailignment, causing an incomplete contact. The resulting gap between connector dielectrics causes circuit breaks, noise, and degradation of circuit perform-ance.
l The present invention comprises coaxial connector couplings on a rack and panel which mate even when the couplings are not mounted in complete alignment, which do not need mechanical releases to retain the couplings in mated position and which permit a variation in spacing between the mounting surfaces. One coupling, the receptacle, is xedly mounted on one surface and the other coupling, the plug, is iloat mounted and spring loaded, thus becoming adaptable for circumferential and axial movement to provide mating contact with the contacts in `the receptacle. The plug contacts are resiliently urged into Contact Iwith the receptacle to maintain contact durving varying degrees of proximity of the mounting surfaces.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide for an improved coaxial connector which will maintain positive and constant contact despite axial mis- Valignment and error in proximity spacing of relatively movable mounting surfaces.
Another object is the provision of coaxial cable connectors which will compensate for misalignment in all directions in the mounting plane and also maintain contact throughout a predetermined range of mounting surface pnoxiinity.
Other objects ofthe invention Will be more fully appar- Vent to those skilled in theart upon a considera-tion of the appended drawings and the following description.
11n the drawings:
FIGURE l is a perspective view of the plug and receptacle connector with coaxial cables attached and installed on the mount-ing surfaces,
FIGURE 2 is a longitudinal sectional view oi the plu-g with portions in elevation to yfacilitate better illustration, and
-FIGURE 3 is a similar longitudinal sectional View of the receptacle.
Referring now to FIGURE l, there are shown two panels 11 and 12, the planes of which are relatively movable. ln arack and panel application for example, panel 11 maybe the end panel of a chassis slidable into a rack which, in turn, is longer than the outer insulation.
section and panel 12 may be the rear part of the rack section. Mounted yon panel y1.1 is plug assembly 13 into which the end of coaxial cable 14 is terminated. Nut lr6 removably retains the cable in secure mechanical and electrical contact Within the plug. Coll-ar 17 of the plug assembly Iis float mounted on panel 11 by self-locking screws extending through the vmounting panel and into threaded bushings 18. These bushings 18 are positioned within enlarged-apertures, not shown in FIGURE l, in collar 17 and held by torque bars 19 connecting twoof themtogether on the side of the collar opposite the panel. Bushing retaining rings 21 complete the attachment. As will be more fully explained in `connection with FIGURE 2, this mounting of the plug assembly 13 permits it to float circumferentially within the limits of the enlarged apertures to become self-aligning with the receptacle assembly 22 mounted on panel 12. The plate 17 is also movable along the axis of plug body 23 to permit Varied spacing of panels 11 and 12 while electrical contact of the cables is maintained.
The receptacle assemble 22 is mounted in iixed, pressure tight relationship to panel 12 by means of screws 24 extending through the panel `and into threaded apertures on receptacle mounting plate 25. As will be seen in FIGURE 3, the mounting plate 25 may be an integral part of the receptacle body 26. In a manner similar to nut 16 of the plug assembly 13, nut 27 releasably maintains cable 23 in physical and electrical contact with the receptacle assembly 22. The outer conductors of cables 14 and 28 are grounded through the connector bodies and panels whereas the inner conductor is maintained in insulated relationship therewith. l
As showy-n in FIGURE 2, cable 14 consists of an inner conductor 29, inner insulation 31, outer conductor 32, and outer insulation 33. In the usual manner well known in cable splicing, the inner conductor is longer .than the inner insulation which is longer than the outer conductor A socket contact 34, rear insulator 35, outer washer 37, inner and outer ferrules 38, 39, washer 41, O-ring 42, inner washer 43 and nut 16 all are positioned over the end of cable 13 and are adapted to lbe received by the plug body 23. The plug 'body is preferably cylindrical in shape and has a central bore extending axially. The inner surface 44 tapers inwardly somewhat from the outer end to receive and electrically engage part` of the receptacle as will be hereinafter explained. A shoulder y46 protrudes inwardly -fnom the inner end of surface 44 `to receive and limit outward movement of the front plug insulator 47. This insulator has an axial bore 48 adapted to receive the -front portion 49 of the socket contact 34 and a larger rearward bore S1 with interconnecting shoulder 52 to receive a protruding collar 53 on the socket contact 34. In this manner engagement of shoulder 46 kon the inner surface-44 of 'the plug body 23 with front ping insulator 47 and engagement of shoulder 52 with collar 53 of socket contact 34 prevent outward movement of lthe cable end when nut 16 is tightened into threaded bore 54.
In assembly nut 16 is iirst inserted o'ver the end of the cable and is followed by inner washer 43 and O-ring 42 which t o-ver the end of the outer insulation 33. Washer 41 is of smaller inner diameter, tting Vover the outer conductor 32 `and abutting against the end of the outer insulation v33. At this point the outer conductor 32, which is usually a ilexible metal braid or soft pliable metal, is pried away Ifrom the inner insulation 31 and the inner ferrule 38 inserted therebetween. Outer fer- Vrule 3'9 is then inserted over the outer conductor 32. ln-
ner washer 37 tits over the inner insulation 31 and abuts the inner ends of ferrules 38and 39. Thereafter inner insulator 36 is placed over the end of the inner insulation 311 which is yreceived in the enlarged bore 56 thereof. Finally the socket contact 34 is inserted over the end of inner conduct-or 29* and into the smaller bore 57 of the insulator 36. A suitable recess is made in the outer end ofthe insulator 36 to accommodate collar 53 of the socket contact 34'. When this .assembly has been completed the socket contact 34 may be soldered to the inner conductor 29, aperture 5S in .the socket contact being provided for this purpose. Abutting portions of ferrules 38, 39', outer conductor 32 and washers 37 and 41 may also be soldered to provide better electrical contact if desired. The front plug insulator 47 may optionally be inserted into the plug before inserting the rest of the assembly or it may be positioned over the end of the socket contact and be inserted as a unit.
As previously mentioned, collar 17 and plug body 23 are relatively movable in the axial direction of the plug body. A projection 59 on the outer surface of the body limits its forward movement relative to the collar. `Collar 17 has a rearwardly extending cylindrical barrel 61 telescopically overriding this projection. Seated within the space between the barrel 61 and outer surface l62 is a spring 63 which engages the projection 59 on the plug and ring 64 inwardly extending from the end of the barrel. This spring 63 continually urges the plug body 23 forward relative to collar 17.
As previously mentioned in the -description of FIG- UREV 1, bushings 18 are positioned in enlarged apertures in the collar 17 to permit planar movement of the collar within the limits of the enlarged apertures in aligning the plug with the receptacle. Torque bar 19 connecting ltwo or more bushings 1S prevent the collar from becoming disengaged from the bushings. This is perhaps more apparent upon inspection of this structure in FIG- URE 2 wherein the enlarged aperture is identified as 66.
The receptacle assembly 22 is shown in FIGURE 3. Here many of the parts are identical to those of the plug assembly 13 in FIGURE 2. 'Cable 28 consists of an inner conductor 67, inner insulation 68, outer conductor 69 and outer insulation 71 and has nut 27, outer Washer 72, O-ring 73, washer 74, inner and outer ferrules 76, 77, inner Washer 78 and rear insulator 79 mounted thereon in a manner similar to that of cable 14. A pin contact 8.1, however, is soldered on the end of conductor 67, instead of the socket contact 34. The front portion 82 of pin contact 81 is a pointed male portion adapted to be received by the front portion 49 of socket contact 34 when the plug and receptacle are mated. The front portion 83 of `fro-nt insulator 84 has an inwardly tapered bore 86 adapted to receive and center the front plug insulator 47 to insure alignment and mating of the socket contact 34 and pin contact 81. The receptacle body 26 is divided at its `front into spaced inner and outer plug contacting portions 87 and SS which receive the `front portion of the plug body 23 therebetween. When inserted the end of the plug engages a gasket 89 to eifect a pressure seal.
As can -be seen, the ends of both the plug and receptacle bodies are tapered in a manner to urge alignment upon mating even when they are misaligned upon mounting on their respective panels. In connecting the plug and receptacle together, the loating bushings on the plug mounting allow the plug to float in all directions in the mounting plane to compensate for any misalignment. This is accomplished before Iany contact is made between the center pin and socket. When the plug bottoms in the receptacle the center contacts are fully mated and, since this happens before the minimum travel is reached, further forward movement pushes the plug body back against the spring, allowing the connector to iloat in a direction perpendicular to the mounting plane. The spring is designed to be strong enough to prevent any movement between the plug and its mounting collar before the plug bottoms in the receptacle and serves the dual function of compensating for varied spacing between mounting surfaces and maintaining positive pressure seal and lfull contact.

By-elections for Lok Sabha seats
NEW DELHI: The Congress has decided to support the Communist Party of India and the Communist Party of India (Marxist) in the Lok Sabha by-elections from Bihar.
Congress president Sonia Gandhi gave assurance to this effect to the CPI national secretary D. Raja here on Friday. Mr. Raja said that he took up the issue with the Congress president at the Iftar hosted by the Prime Minister.
"She has assured that Congress will support us in Nalanda and the CPI(M) in Bhagalpur," Mr. Raja said amid reports that the Congress was likely to extend support to Arun Kumar, contesting as an independent with the blessing of the RJD.
The Congress also assured that party general secretary Digvijay Singh, in-charge of party affairs in the State, would campaign there. The CPI has fielded Gaya Singh while the CPI-M has fielded Subodh Ray for Bhagalpur.
Controversy arose after the RJD too entered Bhaglpur by fielding Shakuni Chouhdhary and not agreeing to go by the 2004 general elections agreement when the seat was left to the CPI(M). The Nalanda seat was left for another UPA ally the Lok Jan Shakti Party, which decided against contesting the by-election and instead extended support to the CPI.

Read the first post on Cambodia here, on Phnom Penh City.
Between 1975 and 1979, a genocide was carried out by the Khmer Rouge regime, led by Pol Pot. It was estimated that between 1.5 to 3 million people were killed, which is almost a whole generation of people in Cambodia. Up to 20,000 mass graves, known as Killing Fields, were uncovered throughout Cambodia. We decided to visit one of the Killing Fields, Choeung Ek Genocidal Center, and Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum – it seemed wrong to list them as popular, but I have to say that one should visit these 2 places to learn about the history of Cambodia and the atrocities inflicted to the people of Cambodia.
(Some of the images below may be a little disturbing, so… be prepared.)
We took a tuk tuk, an auto rickshaw, a few distance away from our hotel and negotiated with him to bring us to these 2 places. I think it costed us about US$15 to US$20 for the day trip. We first head to the Choeung Ek Genocidal Center, which is located about 15 kilometres South-West of Phnom Penh. Before we were out of the city, our driver stopped at a convenience store and bought for us and himself some face masks – as the road ahead are mainly dirt roads, with sand and dust kicking up like a storm by the vehicles.
45 minutes later, we arrived at the Choeung Ek Genocidal Center.
For US$6, the admission included an audio guide. It was an excellent audio tour, perhaps too excellent, as it describes who and how they were killed. It also included recounts by people who survived the Khmer Rouge and a Choeung Ek guard and executioner.
I remembered the place was very quiet… and eerie. It was horrifying, learning what the Khmer Rouge had done to these people – their own people.
