Team Speak Lobby Is Now Public
One of the follow up items from the Town Hall meeting was to make our TS Lobby channel public. We have renamed it Public Lobby. So if you see a pub and they would like to join in on TS feel free to direct them to the TS sticky on our forums. Once they set up their TS they will have access to our Public Lobby but NOT the other channels. For that they will have to apply to the DaDs and be given permissions.

"It's alright Wess, just relax and tell me what's wrong. Just talk slowly and tell me..."
Weenie Lord Shen
"Well, a dragon's size is dependant on age, power and genetics. You're young and your powers are probably not even close to their full potential, since that also takes time, so yes you'll very likely become a lot bigger."
He looks at the water like form of Mizuhi.
"You know, this is harder than I originally expected."
Nikita then sneaks up on Dirilan. When she gets close enough, hugs him tightly.
"Hey there, Dirilan."

Wess whimpered as Nikoli put his hand on her shoulder but otherwise didn't do anything against it.
"I-I... y-you... h-hate me."
Nikoli sighed again.
"No Wess, I don't hate you."
Dirilan was suprised and he blushes in the same time when Nikita hugs him tighly and says to Nikita.

I had a weird day at the field today. I started with my V120D01 I converted to CP. After a re-build from a failed flip I had many test runs at the house that worked just fine. As soon as I lifted off at the field today a swash ball came out and made the heli crash right away. No other damage and it went back in the truck.
Next came out the M120. It took off great even with some decent wind today. After a couple of circles it started to sound really weird and and then fly really crazy. It was amazing that I was able to quickly land it on the skids without a crash. When I walked over and looked at it one of the main rotor blades had come apart at the screw. There's a black plastic spine that runs inside the foamies. The foam blade had slid down the spine making that blade a couple inches longer than the other. Not sure what caused this since I never hit anything with it. It was truley amazing I was able to land without a crash. Back in the truck.
Last came out my V120D2s. Just as expected I flew a couple packs with not issues and very smooth flights. This heli is always predictable, reliable and a great flyer.
I wish I would have brought out my V120D05 but ran out of time.
I came back to the field later with the M120 for a little redemption flight. I was doing great through a couple packs until I lost it in the sun. Just above the horizon the sun was setting. I knew better and should have turned around but I got the heli between me and the sun and lost orientation. The black heli silhouette with the bright orange sun behind it is really hard to see. I cut the throttle and let it go down easy. Just a couple broken blades and chewed main gear. Oh well.....I should have paid more attention to where I was.
I took out the V120D01 CP and tried a flip. I got it all the way around, pulled back on the elvator to change pitch but couldn't keep the hover. It went down for a crash. I'm getting closer each time to flying inverted, just have to keep trying.
Spent about an hour this evening getting both put back together again for tomorrow.

OhioShooter started a new thread with his D05 issues. I gave him what advice I could and then suggested he get on the regular D05 thread for more help. Anway, he's giving it a go so hats off to him for trying. I think this his first CP so we may need to help him out as much as possible to get him up and flying.

I thought i was going to cry when my 4f200's rotor head shot off. I can only imagine what has occurred to him and how he feels.

Phew, I finally pulled the trigger getting a V120d02s after struggling for some time between GCP, MCPX and V120D02S... Hope I like this heli.
I used to have 4G6S, flew like crap, hope this little guy can get my interest back into the heli flying hobby... (and hope my choice isn't bad, since a lot of people recommends GCP)
Wadda u guys think of my decision :P

LiuGong bringing three new excavators to bauma
LiuGong will be a BIG presence at bauma in April.
The company will bring three new excavators to its 3,000 square meters of outdoor exhibition space including the 45 metric ton 945 E. This is a much larger version of the 922 E launched at Intermat in Paris last spring.
Two other new models that expand the 922 will be here, the 930 E and the 925 E. The hefty 945 E is LiuGong's largest excavator. The company will also demonstrate its skid steers (although the emphasis here will be largely on the European models especially the 375 B and the 385 B). LiuGong will have a full range of products including a motor grader and four rollers. –John Latta, Editor-in-Chief, Better Roads, reporting live from Munich, Germany

West Front Street Bridge Will Close On January 5th
The West Front Street Bridge (S-17) that connects Red Bank and Middletown will close to vehicular traffic on or about Monday, January 5, 2015 and remained closed through Sunday May 17, according to a statement from the Monmouth County Department of Public Information and Tourism.
Also known as Hubbard's Bridge, the structure which was built in 1921 is being replaced with a modern bridge that will compliment the look an function of the nearby Coopers Bridge which connects Red Bank and Middletown on Route 35. The project started in August of 2013 while keeping the bridge open to cars and trucks. The closure announced today signals that the 16 month project is entering its final phase.
Pedestrians will continue to be allowed to use the bridge during this period and bicyclists will be allowed to walk their bikes over the structure.admin | Filed under: Middletown, Monmouth County, New Jersey, Red Bank, Tom Arnone | Tags: Freeholder Tom Arnone, Middletown, Monmouth County, New Jersey, Red Bank, Tom Arnone, Traffic nightmare, West Front Street Bridge | 2 Comments »
DiSomma to Sweeney: Stay out of Red Bank
"Red Bank Doesn't Need Lobbyist Money Swaying Elections"
Referring to Senate President Steve Sweeney as a conflicted Trenton lobbyist, and Red Bank Councilmen Michael Dupont and Art Murphy as influence peddling shady dealers, Red Bank Republican Chairman Sean DiSomma, launched a no holds barred attack on New Jersey's highest ranking Democratic elected official, a presumed contender for the 2017 gubernatorial nomination, and the two councilmen he seeks to unseat next November in a statement to the press this afternoon.
DiSomma's statement includes a warning that he will treat all lobbyists and politicians who support Red Bank Democrats to similar welcomes.
Sweeney is headlining a fundraiser for Dupont and Murphy tomorrow evening at Buona Sera. The Monmouth GOP is also holding a fund raiser in the venue at the same time.
DiSomma's statement can be read in its entirety below the fold.

MIDDLETOWN, NJ – Beginning today, there will be intermittent lane closures between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. on Hubbard Avenue and other roads on the Middletown side of the West Front Street Bridge.

On Jan. 2, work will begin to connect the new bridge to the Middletown and Red Bank shorelines. This work will take approximately four months to complete.admin | Filed under: Middletown, Monmouth County, Press Release, Red Bank | Tags: Freeholder Tom Arnone, Middletown, Monmouth County, Press Release, Red Bank, West Front Street Bridge | 1 Comment »
Sweeney coming to Red Bank to raise campaign cash for Murphy and Dupont
DiSomma says Dems fear losing control. Signals hard hitting campaign to come
Senate President Steve Sweeney, a contender the 2017 Democratic gubernatorial nomination, is coming to Red Bank on December 17 as the headliner for a $175 per head fundraiser for Red Bank Councilmen Arthur Murphy's and Michael Dupont's reelection campaign.
The soiree is being hosted by Mayor Pat Menna and former Mayor Ed McKenna at Buona Sera.
The invitation includes a questionnaire to assure compliance with the borough's "pay to play" ordinance. Contractors that do business with the borough, developers and "Alcoholic Licensees" must disclose their attendance and in certain circumstances limit their campaign contributions to $400.
Who would have guessed that Red Bank issues licenses to alcoholics?Art Gallagher | Filed under: 2017 NJ Gubernatorial Politics, Monmouth County, Red Bank, Stephen Sweeney | Tags: Arthur Murphy, Ed McKenna, Michael Dupont, Monmouth County, Pat Menna, Red Bank, Red Bank Democrats, Red Bank Republicans, Sean DiSomma, Senate President Steve Sweeney | 4 Comments »
Red Bank Dems rushing $2.2 million bond ordinance to detect leaking toilets
When Red Bank Councilwoman-elect Linda Schwabenbauer, a Republican, takes the oath of office in January, the Red Bank Democrats may no longer have enough votes on the council to borrow money at will.
Councilwoman Cindy Burnham, now the lone Republican on the six member council, told RedBankGreen that the Democrats are rushing to pass a $2.2 million bond ordinance that has not been vetted before Schwabenbauer takes office. The funds are to be used to replace water meters for the borough's 4000 homes and buildings.Art Gallagher | Filed under: Monmouth County, Red Bank | Tags: $2.2 million bond, Cindy Burnham, Linda Schwabenbauer, Michael Dupont, Monmouth County, New Jersey, Red Bank, Red Bank Water Utility, Stanley Sickles, Water Meters | 4 Comments »
Red Bank Dems Still Ducking Debates
Red Bank Council Members Ed Zipprich and Juanita Lewis, both of whom were out of town and too busy to debate their Republican challengers Sean DiSomma and Linda Schwabenbauer last night at the West Side Community Group's 18th annual forum, were back in town this evening, nearly alone in their Broad Street campaign headquarters with four volunteers.
Zipprich and Lewis have yet to respond to DiSomma and Schwabenbauer's offer to host a Tele-Town Hall debate for Red Bank voters this weekend.
Zipprich and Lewis invited 230 people to come to their headquarters for phone banking tonight. Two people RSVP'd via facebook and as of about 7PM, four people showed up.
150 people showed up to hear the candidates debate last night. Zippy and Lewis should have been there.Posted: October 29th, 2014 | Author: Art Gallagher | Filed under: Red Bank | Tags: Ed Zipprich, Juanita Lewis, Linda Schwabenbauer, Red Bank, Red Bank Council Race, Sean DiSomma, West Side Community Group | 7 Comments »
Red Bank Democratic Candidates Duck Debate
Republicans challenge incumbents to debate this weekend
Red Bank Council members Ed Zipprich and Juanita Lewis were no shows at the 18th annual candidates forum hosted by the Westside Community Group, according to a report on RedBankGreen.
Republican challengers for Borough Council Sean DiSomma and Linda Schwabenbauer fielded questions from the standing room only crowd of about 150 at the River Street Commons senior housing center on Catherine Street. DiSomma offered Zipprich and Lewis's chairs to members of the audience.
Mayor Pat Menna, a Democrat running unopposed for reelection, showed up half way through the two hour forum. RedBankGreen reported Menna was at a campaign fundraiser at the Oyster Point Hotel for the first hour of the debate.
DiSomma, who is also Chairman of the Red Bank Republican Committee, told MMM that Zipprich and Lewis are afraid of facing the voters and are hoping that they can run out the clock of the election without defending their records.
"The Westside Community Group offered Zipprich and Lewis three different dates for the forum," DiSomma said, "they cancelled last week's Council Meeting, as they have done for 5 of the last 6 pre-election council meetings. If I had their record, I would want to hide too."
DiSomma noted that under Zipprich and Lewis, Red Bank's debt has increased 22% and spending has increased 28%. "Lewis doesn't attend council meetings," DiSomma said, "she literally calls in her votes on important matters to the people of Red Bank."Art Gallagher | Filed under: Red Bank | Tags: Ed Ziprrich, Juanita Lewis, Linda Schwabenbauer, Red Bank, Red Bank Council Race, Sean DiSomma | 3 Comments »

French Country Master Suite Renovation
Room Focal point: We repurposed the bed frame by painting it black to match the new side tables, dresser and bench seat that were purchased. I painted the walls in a warm medium off neutral to make the room cozy, reduce the cavern feel of the vaulted ceiling and provide a back drop to show off the gorgeous crystal chandelier. The existing prints worked well with the new scheme, tying together the black and cream furnishings and deeping a bit of lightness to the room.
Dramatic Master Bedroom Makeover. A room that balances Feminine details with Masculine colours making it a room both of the clients can be comfortable in.
Finishing Details make the space. Tan and Black colour scheme combined with ornate details and patterns create a space that is a balance between masculine and feminine.
Having to build out wall creates opportunity for a display niche that also helps open up the space with its mirrored back.
Master Vanity After: Antique Cream finish, applied moulding cabinets, Marble countertops. Now there is more than enough storage.
Before: French Country Master Ensuite. The client liked the cream finish but wanted to update the look and create more storage space for their vanity products.
Before: Shows the old tub deck where it met the existing shower and the existing tile detail which the client loved but was no longer available. The new French Country Ensuite was designed to have a similar feel only with natural stone and a bit more elegance in the detailing.
Elevatons for the New French Country Ensuite. There were quite a few challenges with the rooms architecture and mechanical . Having a great renovation team kept the challenges from being an obstacle and things moved ahead smoothly. For more infromation on the process please visit my website blog:

Booknotes - "Thomas Ewing Jr.: Frontier Lawyer and Civil War General"
Like his brother-in-law William T. Sherman, Union General Thomas Ewing remains a despised figure in some Civil War circles. While Uncle Billy isn't fondly remembered in parts of Mississippi, Georgia, and the Carolinas, Ewing's General Order #11 is an infamous reminder of hard war to many Missourians. Thomas Ewing Jr.: Frontier Lawyer and Civil War General by Ronald D. Smith (Univ. of Missouri Press, Oct. 2008) is a scholarly, full biography of the man, with what appears to be a reasonably balanced dual emphasis of the political and military aspects of Ewing's life. I look forward to reading the author's interpretation of the controversy surrounding Order #11, and his military service in Missouri generally.

With more and more players getting into camp, there have been some more stories trickling out among the A-Rod nonsense; meaningful, baseball-related stories. Like Brian McCann and Mark Teixeira being asked about their thoughts on facing the shift this season and the approaches they want to take to beat it. Quotes via Chad Jennings.
"I want to hit the ball where it's pitched. It's not necessarily that I'm going to try to go up there and hit the ball to left field. If it's away from me, it needs to go to left field. If they come in on me, I need to be able to pull it, but pull correctly. If you pull correctly, you create back spin which is going to help you hit home runs. … If I hit two or three singles in a row to left field, they're going to continue to play the shift because that's where my power is. That's just the way it is and whether that takes a couple of points off my batting average, if I take the approach I have day in and day out for 500 at-bats, at the end of the year things will be there."
Pretty reasonable if you ask me. …

The prime minister finally held a press conference but evaded the questions, shifted the blame.
Economic reform is not an event, but a process, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said at his press conference on Friday. So should political communication be a process, not a rare event. The PM's press conference was only the third in 10 years. The UPA has been a remarkably silent and distant government in charge of a country that is more engaged, questioning and vocal than ever. The PM's claim to speak "in party forums, when required" cannot paper over the fact that he does not make himself available for questions, even minimally, to the people he serves and is accountable to. Given the rarity of the occasion, therefore, questions ranged from the economy to foreign policy, from his equation with the party leadership to his view of arch-adversary Narendra Modi. But for all the expectation, and despite the fact that the press conference was held on the edge of a general election, Singh was evasive and underwhelming.
On the corruption scams that have rocked UPA 2, the prime minister essentially claimed that since they had their roots in UPA 1, and because the government had been rewarded by the people's mandate in 2009, it had been absolved of the charges. This "vindication by election" argument is a dangerous one, and could be used to justify any ethical breach in governance. Then, he sought to disassociate himself from the issue, saying that he had argued for the transparent allocation of telecom and coal, and that none of his decisions had enriched his family or friends. But Manmohan Singh's personal views or actions have not been controversial his capacity to lead a clean government, and to steer it towards the ends he chooses, is the point of contention. He spoke of "circumstances" preventing him from visiting Pakistan and it is true that his party and government have thwarted at every point his efforts to seek a peaceful equilibrium with Pakistan. Yet, Singh himself put the gains of the bilateral exchange in danger by reacting reflexively to events on the Line of Control. Similarly, the economic slowdown may have been led by the global environment, but it was exacerbated in India by slow project clearances and a wilful environment ministry. The CAG and courts may not have been sympathetic to the UPA, but each paralysing crisis was created within the government. The UPA simply failed to take charge.

Container tomato leaves are curling
Hi everyone,
I'm brand new to gardening and I started a container tomato plant a month ago. The plant seems to be doing fairly well - lots of blossoms and a few tiny tomatoes emerging. However, the leaves are curling up. Any ideas of why this might be? I have no idea if it's too much or too little water, fertilizer, etc. Pictures are attached.
A little more info: the plant is in the full sun on a deck and I generally water the plant every day until a tiny bit of water comes out the holes in the bottom. Whenever I check the soil with my finger, it is moist up to the first or second knuckle. The weather has not been the greatest - lots of rain and the nights have been a bit cool, but I think there has been some good sun most days (70s and 80s, though perhaps a few days of 60s here and there).
The plant was first (in a container) in garden soil that continuously feeds for a few weeks until I realized my mistake. I then transplanted to a bigger pot with potting mix made for containers around week 3 and added some organic plant food.
Thanks so much for the advice!
an...this is an issue that is common with tomatoes in containers. I have one potted mater doing the same thing (8 mater plants). This curling is usually caused by a physiological problem like too much or too little water (stress). Other ideas of cause: calcium needed, or black pot getting planting mix too hot. Those leaves will never un-curl. But, you can still have good fruit. In the future...investigate using a wick in the pot. Sorry I can't give you a definite answer...
It is called Physiological Leaf Roll (see link below). Many discussions here about it and its causes - plant stress. In containers it is primarily a soil moisture level issue - inconsistent soil moisture - but other contributing factors listed in the article.
Here is a link that might be useful: Tomato Physiological Leaf Roll
Thanks, digdirt and fireduck - great minds think alike! :)
How do you feel about self-watering containers in the future? Does that help the plant get the right amount of water instead of too much / too little?
Also, any tips for knowing how much to water? I've heard every day, sometimes twice for tomatoes OR only when up to the first knuckle feels dry OR when only up to the second knuckle feels dry, etc... As a newbie, I'm having a hard time knowing (so I default to every day except the days it rains). Thanks!
Self-watering containers are always better, especially when used with a good water-wicking mix (not the Moisture Control mixes).
As for watering, the key is not when or how often or any sort of schedule. Those don't work. It needs to be available when the plant needs it - that's why self-watering container works. A drip irrigation system is even better as it delivers small amounts on a regular hourly basis and can be adjusted as the weather requires. No way a person can match that type of regular delivery and moisture control.
As is often discussed here, the bigger the container the better and the easier it is to stabilize the moisture levels. Yours is a small container for anything other than one of the dwarf or 'patio' type plants - you don't give the variety - so next time go bigger.
Whenever I check the soil with my finger, it is moist up to the first or second knuckle. l
In that case it doesn't need water nearly as often as you have been watering. Too little water is always better than too much. Stick your finger full down in the soil, better yet use a wooden dowel 8-10" deep.
Thank you, Dave! I will try a self-watering container next year (my deck doesn't have a water source, so drip irrigation unfortunately isn't an option). The pot is much bigger than it looks in the picture, but will go even bigger next year as well.
Thanks for the watering advice - your input is extremely valuable to an extreme newbie like me!!

Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
Republicans and Democrats are moving farther away from a deal as both sides entrench. Republicans are preparing to draw a hard line on taxes as Democrats becoming increasingly reticent to discuss spending cuts.
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)

Published in Politics & Policy
Keywords: Obama, Boehner, fiscal cliff, debt, crisis, recession
WASHINGTON, DC (Catholic Online) - "We need a response from the White House" Said John Boehner as he urged President Obama to talk about spending cuts. Despite the fact the Republicans appeared almost resigned to some tax increases a week ago, the conciliatory move appears to have emboldened Democrats rather than bring them closer to a deal.
The national debt now exceeds $16 trillion and continues to grow, unchecked. Obama has insisted on raising taxes on the highest earners, a move that Republicans fear will stifle economic growth and recovery, while refusing to discuss spending cuts.
However, a revenue-only approach to the problem will not close the massive spending gap.
Now Republicans are giving the Democrats a taste of their own medicine saying they will not support any tax increases, not even on the wealthy. The move is designed to bring the Democrats back to the table to discuss the out-of-control spending that's ongoing in Washington.
Many Republicans remain willing to exchange tax increases on wealthy Americans in exchange for cuts in entitlement programs such as Medicare.
A failure to reach an agreement in the coming weeks will plunge the nation over the proverbial "fiscal cliff," a series of automatic tax increases and spending cuts that will be painful for both sides. It is widely agreed that going over the cliff will spark a recession that could last for most of 2013.
However, analysts think Obama has little to lose by going over the cliff, which emboldens him to play chicken with Republicans.
Public opinion polls already say two-thirds of the public will blame Republicans, rather than Obama, should the fiscal cliff be reached without a deal.
Given these numbers, Obama is in such a strong position he can get away, and may even get ahead, by letting any negotiations fail. By refusing to discuss spending cuts, he is already setting the stage for such a failure.
A change in public opinion may be necessary before Republicans can regain some chance at reigning in Obama.

Finding your Family History in Northeast Ohio
For anyone interested in finding their family roots in Northeast Ohio, this book combines practical how-to (and where to) instructions with inspirational family history success stories. Genealogy--family history research--is a fast-growing hobby. But it can be difficult to start. Official records are scattered in so many places, and each archive seems to have its own way of doing things. Where to begin? Vicki Blum Vigil, author of Cleveland Cemeteries and an experience researcher, knows her way around the most useful facilities (archives, libraries, churches, cemeteries, courts, and more) in this region. Her new book helps newcomers to genealogy (or to Northeast Ohio) figure out which places to look in and how best to use them. She also shares some personal success stories of fellow Clevelanders who have discovered really interesting things about their ancestors--they make for great how-to examples and fun reading, too!

A harbour seal wrestling a large octopus in its mouth treated a handful of Victorians to a rare glimpse of wildlife survival skills in the city on Family Day.
A newborn seal was in a life-and-death struggle at the Ogden Point breakwater Tuesday when a father and daughter stepped in to help.
Cruise ship passengers could zip quietly through the air via gondolas running between Ogden Point and Victoria harbour under a new $10-million proposal. The trip would take just a few minutes and alleviate the current problems relating to noise, emissions and traffic plaguing the James Bay community, say those behind Victoria Skyride.
The west coast of Vancouver Island is one of the world's most treacherous waterways. Countless boats have foundered on the rocks lurking just under the ocean's surface. The few sailors who survived and made it to shore found themselves lost in the most northern rainforest with no access to civilization.
This year's cruise ship season was launched in Victoria Tuesday morning when the Crystal Serenity arrived at Ogden Point as part of an around-the-world tour.

Friendly staff, breakfast, and the room...it was a last minute booking as I was on the road traveling
The staff is very friendly. The entire hotel feels new. Everything is very clean and nicely decorated.
The water in the shower wasn't hot enough.
Room was completely renovated. The room was extremely small, but it was in excellent condition. New floor, new bed, newly painted...the owners have done everything possible to make the room nice.
Smallest motel room I've ever seen.
Since we were turned away, even though we had a printed reservation in hand, I cannot comment on the rooms at this hotel, only the horrible way that we were treated.
Once again, I cannot rate the rooms since we never got a room. The location is in a dimly lit area far off the interstate and did not seem safe. The lady that was managing the hotel was extremely rude.
Here's why:
We're not the seller
At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.

Blitcliington, Jr., Greensboro, N.C., assignor to Western Electric Company, Incorporated, New York, N.Y., a corporation of New York Filed Sept. 11, 1963, Ser. No. 308,196 Claims. (Cl. S25-J6) This invention relates to a portable telephone 4system and more particularly to a telephone system wherein R.F. and audio signals 'are simultaneously transmitted between a portable transmit-receive unit and an inductively coupled stationary `control unit that is connected t0 a standard telephone transmission line.
Presently, portable telephone units are selectively connected to -a telephone line by wiring a building to provide a plurality of plug-in-jacks. When the telephone unit is connected through a jack, the portability of the telephone unit is limited by the length of the connecting cord. Another limitation on the portability of such system is the number of jacks provided. In effect such systems are only of limited portability.
Other systems have been developed using radio-frequency to communicate between mobile units and a fixed station. These systems are subject to limitations such las assignment of specific broadcast frequencies, high power consumption, and in certain systems using a single frequency, inability to permit simultaneous transmission and reception. Another system contemplates an inductive coupling between the portable telephone unit and a stationary cont-rol unit. This system uses `audio-frequency but is again subject to many limitations such as the inability to permit simultaneous two-way .communication between the portable unit and the stationary control unit.
It is an object of this invention to provide a new and improved portable telephone system.
Another object of this invention is to provide a combined audio-frequency 'and radio-frequency telephone communication system.
Additionally, it is another object of this invention to provide a portable tele-phone system wherein the portable unit is inductively coupled to a stationary control unit so that simultaneous conversation can take place between the units.
A further object of the invention resides in the use of a radio-frequency transmitter wherein the output of a transistor, driven by an R.F. oscillator, is modulated in accordance with audio-frequency signals being simultaneously impressed on the collector and emitter of the transistor.
An additional object of the invention is the provision of a portable telephone unit including dialing facilities together with facilities to selectively control a power source located in a stationary unit connected to the standard telephone line.
A still further object of the invention resides in a combined audio and radio frequency communication system having facilities associated with the radio-frequency -receiving facilities for simultaneously controlling the gain in the radio-frequency facilities and the volume of the audiotransmitting facilities.
With these and other objects in view, the present invention contemplates a telephone communication system wherein a portable unit is inductively coupled to a stationary control unit to permit simultaneous audio-frequency and radio-frequency communication between the units. When a hand set is lifted on the port-able unit, power sources at both the portable unit and the control unit are rendered effective to permit the subsequent transmission of dial pulses from the portable unit to the control unit and from there over an outgoing standard telephone line. Automatic gain control facilities are provided in the control unit to insure the maintenance of the correct audio level of both the transmitted and received signals.
Other objects and advantages of the present invention will be apparent from the following detailed description when considered in conjunction with the accompanying drawings wherein:
FIG. l is a schematic 'circuit diagram of a portable telephone transmitter-receiver utilizing radio and audio frequencies in accordance with the principles of the invention;
FIG. 2 is a schematic circuit diagram of a stationary control unit for transmitting and receiving audio and radio frequencies in accordance with further principles of the invention;
FIG. 3 is a detailed circuit diagram of the portable transmitter-receiver shown in FIG. l; and
FIGS. 4 and 5, when arranged as depicted in FIG. 6, represent a detailed circuit diagram of the stationary control unit shown in FIG. 2.
Referring first to FIG. l, there is shown a conventional telephone unit comprising a portable base 10 anda hand set 11. The hand set 11 includes a transmitter or microphone 12 and a receiver 13. Mounted in the base 10 is a dial mechanism 15.
Initially considering transmission, sounds impressed on the transmitter 12 result in the generation of audio-frequency signals that are applied to an audio amplifier 14 which feeds the signals to an R.F. amplifier-modulator 16 wherein the audio signals modulate the output of a crystal RF. oscillator 17. The modulated R.F. signals are impressed on -an inductive loop 18 mounted in the portable base 10. Loop 18 is inductively coupled to a loop 19 which is located in .a stationary control unit, as shown in FIG. 2. Loop 19 may be located about the foundation of a building or about any area in which it is desired ,to use the portable communication device. A capacitor 20 is connected across an `audio power amplifier 27 and serves to bypass the R.F. energy.
The RF. signals received in the loop 19 are filtered and applied to an RF; amplifier 21, whereafter the signals are demodulated by a diode or other detector 22 and impressed upon an audio amplifier 23, which in turn applies the audio signals to a hybrid coil 24. The hybrid coil is of conventional design and is inductively coupled to a standard telephone transmission line 26.
Considering now reception, input audio signals received over lthe line 26 are impressed through the hybrid coil 24 to an audio power amplifier 27 and from there are impressed on the loop 19. Due to the inductive coupling between the loops 18 and 19, the audio signals are picked up by the loop 18 and applied through an audio signal filter 29 to an audio amplifier 30, whereafter the audio signals are impressed on the receiver unit 13.
Returning now to a consideration of the signals emanating from the R.F. amplifier 21, these signals are applied to an automatic voltage control circuit having two branches 31 and 32. The branch 32 feeds back a voltage to control the gain or output of the R.F. amplifier 21. The feedback over the circuit branch 31 maintains the level of the audio amplifier 27 at a constant value to compensate for variations in the distance of the coupling between the loops 18 and 19.
In order to initiate a telephone conversation, the hand set 11 is lifted whereupon a pair of hook switch contacts 33 and 36 are closed. Closure of the lower hook switch contact 36 completes circuits to connect a battery source 35 to the crystal oscillator 17, the audio amplifier 14, the audio amplifier 30, fand over a line running through a lower interrupter contact 37 located in a telephone dial 15 to the R.F. amplifier-modulator 16. Application of battery through the interrupter contact 37 to the RF. amplifier-modulator 16 permits the signal from the crystal oscillator 17 to be applied to the loop 18. Receipt of the signal in the loop 19 results in the operation of the R.F. amplifier 21 to apply a control signal through a D.C. amplifier 40lto energize a power relay 41. Energization of relay 41 draws up contacts 42 to apply power from a power supply 43 to the audio power amplifier 27. The circuit running to the power relay 41 also runs to a line relay 46 to draw up a contact 47 located in the telephone line 26.
In order to call a desired subscriber, the dial 15 is operated to open the contact 37. The successive openings of the contact 37 in response to the dialing of particular numbers are impressed on the R.F. amplifiermodulator 16 to interrupt the signals impressed on the loop 18 by the oscillator 17. These interruptions of the signal are picked up by the loop 19 and impressed through the R.F. amplifier 21, and through the D.C. amplifier 40, to the line relay 46. The line contact 47 is thus successively opened and closed in response to the opening rand closing of contact 37 in the dial 15. In order to maintain on the power supply 43 during dialing of a telephone number, a capacitor 51 is connected in parallel with the power relay 41 so that the momentary interruptions of the circuit will not affect the release of the power relay.
Referring now to FIG. 3 wherein the details of the circuit located in the portable telephone unit are shown; the lifting ofthe receiver 11 results in the closure of the hook switch contacts 33 and 36 to complete a circuit from the battery 35, through the closed hook switch contact 36, over a lead 101, through a current limiting resistor 102, through a primary 103 of a modulator transformer 104, through the transmitter 12 to ground. The resistor 102 serves to limit the current supplied to the microphone 12. The current in the primary 103 is accordingly varied in response to impingement of sound energy on the transmitter in accordance with well-known principles. A capacitor 106 is connected across the resistor 102 to insure that the audio signals impressed on the tranmitter 12 appear across the transformer 103 and not across the resistor 102.
Considering now the modulation of R.F. signals applied to the loop 18, a secondary 107 of the transformer 104 is connected to the bases of a pair of transistors 108 and 109 coupled together in push-pull fashion to serve as the transistor amplifier 14 for the audio signals emanating from the transmitter 12. The collectors of the transistors 108 and 109 are respectively connected to the top and bottom windings 111 of a modulator output transformer ,112. A first secondary winding 113 of the transformer 112 is connected to the emitter of a transistor 114 included in the R.F. amplifier-modulator 16. An additional secondary winding 116 of the transformer 112 is connected throughv the look 18 to the collector of the transistor 114. It will be appreciated that varying audio signals appearing in the primary 111 will be picked up by the secondary windings 113-and 116 to cumulatively control the output of the transistor 114. The transistor 114 is connected through a coupling capacitor 117 to the oscillator 17 comprising a transistor 118, a crystal 119, and a tuned circuit 121. Oscillator 17 impresses R.F. carrier signals on the base of the transistor 114 which are accordingly modulated in accordance with the amplified audio signals picked up by the secondary windings 113 and 116 and impressed upon the collector and emitter of the transistor 114.
` Turning now to the receiving circuit in the portable unit, shown in FIG. 3, incoming audio signals picked up by the -loop 18 which is inductively coupled to the loop 19,\are impressed through an audio filter 29 comprising a choke 132, a resistor 133, and a capacitor 134. The filtered audio output is impressed through the audio amplifier 30 which comprises three transistors 136, 137, and 138. In order to stabilize the functioning of the amplifier' 30, the collector of the transistor 137 is connected through an A.C. feedback circuit 139 to the emitter of the transistor 136. Further stabilization is attained by connecting the emitter of the transistor 137 through a D.C. feedback circuit 141 to the base of the transistor 136. The output of the last transistor 138 is impressed through a capacitor 142, through the closed dial contacts 39, through the hook switch contact 33, through the receiver 13 to ground. The amplified audio signals control the receiver to produce audible sounds in accordance with well-known principles.
When initially dialing a subscribers number, the operation of the dial 15 effectuates the opening and the closing of the interrupter contacts 37. It will :be noted that battery 35 is connected through the hook switch contact 36, over a lead 143, through the interrupter contact 37, over a lead 144 and through the secondary winding 113 to the emitter of the transistor 114. It may be thus understood that the emitter current for the transistor 114 passes through the contact 37 which is intermittently opened and closed in accordance with the digits dialed. Obviously, upon interruption of the emitter circuit of the amplifiermodulator 16, the R.F. signals derived from the oscillator 17 are not impressed on the loop 18. These interruptions indicative of the dialed digits are picked up by the stationary loop 19.
Attention is now directed to the circuit details of the stationary transmit-receive unit shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, which functions to transmit to, and receive signals from, the portable unit shown in FIG. 3 which signals are derived from, or applied to, the telephone line 26. This unit is initiated into condition for operation by lifting the receiver 11 to effectuate the closure of the hook switch contact 36, whereupon battery is applied to the transistor 114, which then functions in conjunction with the oscillator 17 to impress R.F. signals on the sloop 18. These R.F. signals are received by the loop 19 and impressed through an R.F. band-pass filter 201, tuned to respond to signals that are in accordance with the designated radio frequency. These initial R.F. signals are impressed through the R.F. amplifier 21 which consists of three transistors 202, 203, and 204, respectively, associated with LC tuned `circuits 206, 207, and 208. Inasmuch as each transistor Within the amplifier 21 is associated with a tuned circuit, only R.F. signals of the designated frequency are passed to the detector 22. A resistor 210 of a relatively high resistance value is connected in the base circuit of the transistor 204 to hold this transistor from conduction until such time as the R.F. signals appear in the amplifier 21.
The base-emitter junction of the transistor 204, together with a resistor 216 and a capacitor 229, function as a detector for signals applied to the base of the transistor 204. The detector applies a D.C. signal to a lead 209, the signal being proportional to the level of the output of the transistor 204. Such D.C. signals appearing in lead 209 are applied to the D.C. amplifier 40 wherein the signals are amplified by transistors 211, 212, and 213 operating in conjunction with a diode 214. D.C. current flowing through the diode 214 passes through the transistors 212 and 213 -to operate the line relay 46. Operation of relay 46 functions to close the line relay contact 47 to complete a sending circuit through the outgoing telephone lline 26. After a short delay, -the capacitor 51 is charged thus allowing the relay 41 t0 operate and close the contact 42. Closure of the contact 42 applies negative battery from the power supply 43 over a lead 216 to enable the audio power amplifier 27 to operate.
Upon dialing of each digit of the subscribers number, the interruption of the R.F. signal received in the loop 19 results in the accompanying deenergization of the line relay 46. Each deenergization of -the relay 46 corresponds to a dial pulse and is impressed on the telephone line 26 by the opening and closing of the contact 47. Ina-smuch as the relay 41 is shunted by the capacitor 51, this relay does not follow the dial pulses so that the contact 42 is held closed. Upon receipt of the R.F. signals modulated in accordance with the sound to be transmitted, the modulated R.F. signals are passed through the R.F. amplifier 21 to the detector 22. The detector includes a `diode 217, a capacitor 218, and a resistor 219. The detector 22 functions in the usual manner; that is, during positive going half cycles of the R.F. signals, the capacitor 218 is charging; whereafter during the negative going half cycles, the capacitor 218 is holding the diode 217 from conduction. The voltage developed across the capacitor follows the peak value of Ithe applied voltage and reproduces the original audio-frequency modulation developed from the sound impressed on the transmitter or microphone 12.
The demodulated signals indicative ofthe sounds to be transmitted, are applied to the amplifier 23 consisting of -transistors 221 and 222. The amplified signals are then impressed on an input winding 223 of the hybrid coil 24. A secondary winding 224 picks up the signals and inductively applies them through lower windings 226 to line 26. Returning now to a consideration of the circuit used to control or maintain the sound Ilevel, the transistor 204 has an emitter coupled over leads 209 and 32, through a transistor 227, and over a lead 228 to the base of the transistor 202. The capacitor 229 is connected to the lead 32 to act a-s a filter to permit a D.C. bias to be applied to the base of transistor 227. The transistor 227 is connected in parallel with the lower portion of a voltage divider 231 which functions to control the bias applied to the base of the transistor 202. As the R.F. signals increase in strength or amplitude, the ltransistor 204 is driven into a greater state of conduction, hence, the
potential applied over leads 209 and 32 increases to drive the transistor 227 int-o a greater state of conduction. Inasmuch as the transistor 227.is connected in parallel with the lower half of voltage divider 231, the bias is lowered on the base of transistor 202, hence, lowering the gain of lthe amplifier 21.
Considering now the receiving circuit shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the incoming audio signals are received on the line 26 and are inductively passed through -upper windings 232 of the hybrid coil 24 to a transformer 233. The output of the transformer 233 is passed through a capacitor 234, a junction point 236, and a capacitor 237 to the audi-o power amplifier 27. The audio power amplifier 27 includes a pair of transistors 238 and 239 which function to apply amplified signals to a transformer 241 that has its output applied to a push-pull power amplifier 242. The output of lthe push-pull power amplifier 242 i-s impressed through a transformer 243 to a line running to the loop 19. The loop 19 is inductively coupled with loop 18, which picks up and applies the audio signals to the audio filter 29 and the audio amplifier 31 to accordingly reproduce the audible sounds in the receiver 13.
The hybrid coil 24 also includes a capacitor 251 and an adjustable resistor 252. The resistor 252 may be adjusted to prevent cross-talk between the sending and receiving circuits. 'I'he adjustment i-s such that there is not an absolute balance so that a small amount of sidetone is provided whereby the speaker, talking int-o the microphone 12 can hear himself talk in the receiver 13.
In order to maintain the audio signals at a suitable level, the automatic voltage control line 31 is provided. This lead 31 includes a transistor 253 and a capacitor 254. The capacitor 254 is selected with a long-time constant to limit variations in gain, and thus eliminate any effect of the dial pulses. When the transistor 204 commences to heavily conduct, which is indicative of a toohigh volume, then a positive going control signal is impanied by a decrease in the volume or amplitude of the incoming audio signals impressed through the capacitor 234 to the junction 236. It may be thus appreciated that both the sending and receiving circuits of the stationary control unit shown in FIGS. 2, 4 and 5 are controlled to maintain the signal level of both the transmitted and received signals. For example, when the loop 18 is moved closer to the loop 19, the coupling between these loops increases and the signal level will accordingly increase; however, the circuits 31 and 32 cooperate to hold the signal level output at a constant value.
It is to be understood that the above-described arrangements of -circuits and construction of electrical cornponents are simply illustrative of an application of the principles of the invention and many other modifications may be made without departing from the invention.

Comments about Sit N Spin:
I bought this for my four year old son and three year old daughter to use. I remembered having fun on the older model as a kid. I was relieved that it was so easy to assemble, and was confused by how hard it was for the kids to use, even on a hard surface. The wheel doesn't turn at all, and the base only spins when you spin it directly, with a toy on it. With a small child on it, it doesn't make more than half a revolution. I wish I had looked at the large number of similarly disappointed reviews of this product elsewhere before buying it for my kids. I would return it if I still had the original packaging.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Setting Up A Conference: Part 4 - The Exhausting Minutia
Paw Prints: Writings of the maddog
Now you have your theme, your audience definition, your venue, your track layout, your speaker list...life is sweet...but now the exhausting part starts....the minutia.
You are going to have a reception...you need to order the food and drink. What about vegetarians? What about Vegans? How much beer and wine? What about non-alcoholic drinks? Wait, does the facility allow alcohol? What about under-age? Do you need bartenders?
Are you charging admission? How do you tell people who have paid? Do you need badges? Do you accept non-registered walk-ins? How many? Will we have enough badges? Too many?
How about security for the equipment? And what about insurance for the event? Liability insurance, theft insurance?
You want to have Internet at the event. You did not even consider that it would cost that much. Well, speakers can get Internet at the hotel for free. No, you have a sponsor for the Internet, but that does not include routers. Who will stage the routers? Where will you get the routers?
And the list goes on and on....
Signs, signs, everywhere are signs....blocking up the scenery...
Signs for directions, sponsors, schedules of talks...more and more signs....
A registration table, along with tape, scissors, etc. A money box for collecting cash on-site.
Microphones for the speakers. Do they want wireless lapel mikes so they can wander, or would a wired podium mike be o.k.? Those LCD video projectors cost a lot of money to rent, can we borrow a few from local companies? Will the speakers be using their own laptop, or will they need us to supply a PC to host their talk?
Speaker release forms....we are going to tape the speech, but do we have the right to release it afterwards? And where do we get the video and audio equipment to do the taping?
Tired yet? I am...and I am not the one putting on this event...you are. All of the above is why you need a TEAM of people, and when you form your teams, have the leader of one act as co-chair of another, and vice verse, in case the leader of a team goes AWOL half-way through the planning and execution stage. That way the co-chair will know what is going on and can take over.
And you will have meetings...lots of meetings....and the bigger the conference the larger and more frequent the meetings.
There are even things you should not have to do that have to be done. Recently two different conference teams at opposite sides of the earth had to spend days talking on their mailing lists about their harassment policies. I personally have an answer for harassment, but I have been told it is illegal in many countries around the world, so these groups had to be satisfied with coming up with a policy that would first warn people ahead of time and then remove them from the event if they violated the policy.
For a first-time conference all I can recommend is either to contact another conference that has been successful and ask if they have a "check-list" of things they need to think about, or (lacking a such a friendly crib-sheet) nominate someone as "project manager" who keeps a check-list of all the things people are supposed to do and makes sure they are done. Then next year you start with that list and add to it.
Minutia is exhausting. How do you know if you have it all covered?
Rely on the venue's professional planners for suggestions of food, beverage and "things". They have done this 10,000 times before, just not with you. For the most part they will understand "trying to save money", even though you may think they are expensive.
Walk through it at your meetings. Even if you do this "virtually", have your team members act as if they are registering, attending the reception, etc. After you have walked through various processes a couple of times and no new processes or supplies needed occur, you may be most of the way there.
Don't worry, you will have forgotten something.

text: I am new to these boards, so bear with me. This tale is old...but so extraordinary that it should be catalogued here. In fact, this burst of Disney magic helped accelerate my Disney addiction and ensured many trips afterwards. My daughter was only two at the time, the time being in the mid 90s. I had taken her to eat breakfast at Tony's Town Square in MK. Being the typical finicky kid, all she wanted were grapes. The CM waiting on us reluctantly informed me that the restaurant did not have grapes. I did not give it much thought and onward we forged. However...when the food arrived, there was a big plate of grapes for my grateful (grapeful?) kid. I inquired as to their provenance....and here is where Disney does what Disney does best. The CM had LEFT her restaurant, walked up Main Street to the fruit vendor, acquired the grapes, and had them ready for my daughter without saying a word. If I had not dug a little, this deed would have never been known. Unfortunately, I do not know the lady's name, although it would not surprise me to see it today with "VP" beside it. She went way above and beyond to make a little girl happy with no concern for acknowledgment or praise. So, across the years, thank you. Your kindness reverberates even today.
