Remember Me
Aug. 10--Like the city she serves, Caroline Fowler has been through a lot this past year.
Santa Rosa's city attorney has found herself at the center of some highly public and unusually rancorous clashes with the city's elected council members, who are her bosses.
She has been criticized for shouting down a city councilman during a public council meeting.
She's been vilified for the guidance she gave to council members in the wake of the Andy Lopez shooting.
And she has been branded "rogue" for what one councilwoman calls her incorrect interpretation of state open-meeting laws.
Later this month the City Council, the majority of which strongly supports its embattled attorney, will meet behind closed doors to try to root out -- possibly with the help of a mediator -- the resentments that continue to fester between Fowler and her council critics.
The 56-year-old mother of two boys says she has done her best to remain professional in the face of what she contends is unprecedented and unfair criticism. She said she works hard to offer evenhanded legal advice and useful information to help city leaders make good decisions.
"Everything I've said or done has been out of a desire to help the city or protect the city," Fowler said. "That's what I care about."
Nevertheless, Fowler has emerged as a powerful and now polarizing figure at City Hall during a key period of transition.
In previous periods of upheaval, Fowler was a reassuring, stabilizing force, said former Councilman John Sawyer. There were times, Sawyer said, when he viewed her as the "de facto city manager."
Now, with the top two administrators gone or soon to depart, a new city manager soon to arrive from El Paso, Texas, and an election right around the corner, her influence could grow or diminish after six years in the top legal post.
Supporters laud her as a hard- working public servant with a strong will, invaluable institutional know-ledge, and commitment to keeping the city out of legal peril.
"Caroline has always had the best interests of the city and City Council's legal well-being at heart," former Mayor Jane Bender said.
But detractors paint her as an overbearing bureaucrat who can be defensive and inflexible when challenged, has a poor track record in court and inserts herself into council debates in a way that suggests partisanship.
"I believe that she has become a political actor, and that's inappropriate for our city attorney," Councilwoman Julie Combs said.
The opposing views have made Fowler a lightning rod for controversy and contributed to the impression among many that dysfunction reigns in city government.
Intrigued by law course
Born in England, Fowler moved to the United States when she was 3 years old so her father could pursue a career as a tool and die maker. When she was 9, her parents split up and she and her brother moved back to England with her father. He died two years later, and she returned to Southern California to live with her mother and stepfather.
While studying communications at California State University Dominguez Hills, she became fascinated by a course in First Amendment law and decided to pursue a law degree.
She put herself through Southwestern University School of Law in Los Angeles with a combination of scholarships, loans and waitressing at the Ambassador Hotel. She graduated with honors in two years in 1983.
She started out at a small firm doing routine business law but decided she wanted to be a litigator. She worked for several years at a firm specializing in insurance defense and another firm focusing on legal malpractice defense.
In 1991, Fowler and her husband moved to Santa Rosa, where she joined a law firm with strong ties to city government, Maxwell, Allen & Cooper. Dick Maxwell previously had been Santa Rosa's city attorney, and David Cooper served as outside counsel to the city's redevelopment agency.
She filled in occasionally for Cooper, and that's how she met Rene Chouteau, who was then Santa Rosa's city attorney.
Recognizing her background in insurance litigation, Chouteau hired Fowler to go after an insurance company to recover some of the costs of the cleanup of a contaminated property in Railroad Square. The suit resulted in a settlement favorable to the city, she said.
Chouteau later hired Fowler to fill in for an assistant city attorney on disability leave. When Chouteau was tapped to be a Sonoma County Superior Court judge in 2001, his successor, Brien Farrell, hired Fowler as a full-time assistant city attorney.
Chouteau said recently that he made it a priority to hire experienced litigators so that they could give sound advice to city leaders about the risks of going to trial and try cases themselves when necessary.
"I felt that Caroline fit that mold and would do an excellent job for the city, which she did," Chouteau said.
Fowler handled a range of litigation for the city, successfully defending police officers against claims of excessive force, suing a cable company to force it to improve its customer service, and helping the city get a better deal for ratepayers from the franchise agreement with its garbage hauler, she said.
In the spring of 2008, when Farrell was preparing to retire to become a high school teacher, former Mayor Bob Blanchard, then battling cancer, pushed for the council to approve Fowler's appointment as the new city attorney in April even though she wasn't set to officially assume the role until July.
"I later found out it was because he knew he was dying," Fowler recalled. "I was very touched by that because he wanted to leave things in good order."
Tumultuous period
Blanchard died two months later, and his passing marked the beginning of a tumultuous period in Santa Rosa city government and politics, one that reverberates to this day.
It created challenges for the new city attorney right from the start.
After Blanchard resigned in May, the council grappled with how to replace him, particularly with the thorny question of whether Sawyer, then the vice mayor, should automatically become acting mayor.
About that same time, there was a major shake-up in the Police Department that resulted in the firing of its second-in-command, Capt. Jamie Mitchel, and the subsequent ouster of the chief, Ed Flint, who was pushed out over complaints from employees claiming they were the victims of discrimination and retaliation by top brass.
Mitchel would spend the next six years battling the city in state and federal court over his termination, claiming in part that Fowler had illegally shared a confidential report about him with one of the employees who filed a complaint. The allegation, later dismissed like all Mitchel's other claims, nevertheless was a formative moment for Fowler, reinforcing her view of the need to be conservative when it comes to releasing employee information.
Months later, the city saw a seismic shift in its political and economic landscape. The economy, sputtering throughout the summer of 2008, went into a nose dive, triggering a recession that would place significant strains on city staff and resources over the next few years.
In November, the City Council election saw a liberal majority come to power for the first time in city history. Gary Wysocky and Marsha Vas Dupre joined incumbent Councilwomen Susan Gorin and Veronica Jacobi to form an alliance backed by environmental and labor interests.
Gorin said Fowler proved invaluable to her during her two-year rotation as mayor, providing far more than just legal advice. She came to rely heavily on the city attorney for her insights into things such as the mood of city employees during a period of layoffs and low morale, she said.
"In my experience as a mayor and a council member," said Gorin, now a county supervisor, "she was a great asset and ally."
De facto city manager
Gorin wasn't the only one who held that view of Fowler. After longtime city manager Jeff Kolin left in 2010 for Beverly Hills, followed soon thereafter by the departure of Deputy City Manager Greg Scoles, Councilman John Sawyer said he found himself turning more to Fowler for counsel.
Sawyer strongly objected to the council majority's decision to pass over Scoles to give the interim city manager job to Wayne Goldberg, the former advance planning director. In a still- talked-about moment, he lambasted the decision from the dais as an "unnecessary, embarrassing, destructive, destabilizing and outrageous exercise."
Even though he worked professionally with Goldberg, Sawyer said he came to consider Fowler as "the de facto city manager." As he put it, "the veil that floated between the city attorney and the city manager positions became more sheer."
Sawyer said he and others trusted Fowler and viewed her experience and relationships with city staff as more valuable.
"Of those two, I felt that she was more in touch than anyone else in City Hall," Sawyer said.
That remained the case for him even after the current city manager, Kathy Millison, was hired in the summer of 2010 and needed time to get up to speed on the city and organization, he said.
Four years later, amid another power vacuum at City Hall, Fowler's central role has become one of the most contentious issues for a City Council overseeing services for a population of 170,000 people.
Her critics say the heart of the debate lies in the question of who runs the city -- the elected officials or the paid staff? They stress that it is the council's responsibility to provide oversight of city staff and hold them accountable for their performance.
But supporters view the attacks on Fowler as patent political attempts to tarnish her and her supporters by implication. The say the relentlessness of the criticism smacks of a smear campaign by council members frustrated by their powerlessness.
The two progressives now in the minority, Wysocky and Combs, are her most strident critics.
"I think they want her fired," Councilwoman Erin Carlstrom said.
Courtroom skills
Those who have seen Fowler in action say she's a skilled litigator who represents the city's interests in court well even if it doesn't result in a legal win.
In 2012, Tom Schwedhelm, then the city's police chief, spent three weeks in a San Francisco federal courtroom watching Fowler defend the city against a wrongful death suit brought by the family of Richard DeSantis, a mentally ill man who was shot dead by officers. Fowler was well prepared and handled the delicate cross-examinations of DeSantis' family deftly, he said. Even though the jury sided against the city, because of how Fowler carefully presented the evidence, she later was able to get the jury's verdict thrown out. The city eventually settled the case for $1 million.
"I believe she has carried on the excellent tradition of the Santa Rosa City Attorney's Office," Schwedhelm said.
The job of a city attorney is also to advise the City Council and look out for the interests of the city as a whole. That means helping the council understand and navigate the various legal obstacles and risks associated with a potential policy or course of action, former Sonoma County Counsel Steven Woodside said.
That can be challenging when there are sharp divisions on a council or other public board, because invariably the advice will be viewed as more supportive of one side's position than the other's, Woodside said.
"You don't like giving advice that is unwelcome, but that's part of the job," Woodside said. "And the art is to make the council members understand that you are being honest and sincere and you're telling it straight."
Fowler's skill in this arena is a matter of debate.
Even some of her supporters privately say the very combativeness that makes her a formidable litigator hasn't always served her well in her interactions with some council members. She has strong opinions about the law, expresses them directly, and doesn't appreciate being second-guessed, they say.
Speaking about her as an attorney, not about her relations with council members, Woodside said, "Caroline is assertive and very direct and she doesn't hold back, in my experience."
She also has not been shy about involving herself in policy decisions. Unlike Chouteau, who stuck to offering legal advice, Fowler, perceiving a power void in the city after Kolin and Scoles left, viewed her role more broadly, Goldberg said.
"She interjected herself more into the policy and administration discussions," Goldberg said. "I think she viewed it as stepping up to the plate."
Last one standing
Fowler says that there have been times when she felt like she was the last one standing among top city officials. In addition to the turnover in the city manager's office, she noted the city has gone through five chief financial officers since she's been city attorney. Thirteen years into her career with the city, she is one of the highest-paid officials, with a base salary of $189,000 per year.
"I tried to provide stability during that time and fill in where there were gaps and something was needed," Fowler said. "I did a lot of things when they needed to get done."
She noted that issues like the city's liability related to the county landfill or its involvement in Sonoma Clean Power, the public electricity provider, are complex and she has taken the lead on them because the city lacks staff who are experts in those areas.
But Fowler's proactive approach advising the council continued long after Millison's arrival and, some say, continues to this day. Where Millison, who is retiring next month, has taken a more hands-off approach to the council, Fowler plays a more active role in council discussions.
She offers unsolicited advice, legal and otherwise, and interjects additional information she feels is relevant to council debates.
But that habit, perhaps more than any other, has put her squarely in the cross-hairs of some council members who feel she oversteps. Combs has taken Fowler to task for what she views as overly broad and inappropriate guidance.
"It's clearly not the role of the city attorney to be either the city manager or an additional council member," Combs said.
It seems to Combs that the council majority gives Fowler wide latitude to argue in favor of or against a proposition in a way that suggests she's aligned with their interests.
"It's as if she's taken sides," Combs said.
Fowler denies this, but is aware that at times council members become frustrated when her advice "gets in the way of people's agendas."
She sees it as her responsibility to make sure the council has all the information it needs -- legal or otherwise -- to make informed decisions. There are times when city staff, particularly if they are being "hammered" publicly, need assistance in answering the council's questions, she said.
"If other people don't step up to provide it, then I will provide it," she said.
The debate on the county's plastic bag ban was one instance when the additional information Fowler provided wasn't appreciated by all. She offered opinions about the consequences of the city joining a countywide ban versus Santa Rosa controlling such rules through its own ordinance.
She said she was "skewered" by some in favor of the countywide measure who viewed her as being obstructionist.
"I'm not telling them don't do it. I'm just saying, you need to understand that if you do this, this is the consequence," she said. "I don't ever want to be in the position of having the City Council say, 'Gosh, why didn't you tell us that?'?"
Interjecting relevant information into a discussion is one thing, cutting off a councilman mid-sentence is another. That's what happened in October when Wysocky tried to discuss the council's closed-door deliberations that led to the council approving a new firefighters' contract.
Wysocky pushed back against Fowler's warnings not to reveal details of those deliberations, and she told him he could not discuss "any of the conversations that took place in closed session or you are committing a misdemeanor."
It was a tense standoff and turning point in their relationship, one that set the stage for the heated backroom argument two weeks later following the decision to close City Hall prior to a march protesting the Andy Lopez shooting. The argument triggered the investigation that would lead to Wysocky's formal censure in June.
"I was told erroneously that there were criminal penalties for disclosing any information about how the council reached an important decision affecting the future of our city," Wysocky said. "That resulted in the suppressing of information that I think was very relevant."
Wysocky isn't the only one who thinks Fowler overstepped her authority during that period.
Combs took issue with Fowler's directive to the council not to speak publicly about the Lopez shooting at the time.
Fowler emailed council members in the days after the shooting that it was "critical" they not comment on the "incident." She also reminded them that interfering with a police investigation was a crime. Fowler added in a voice mail to Combs that she "cannot discuss that case under any circumstances."
Combs, believing someone from the city should say something about the tragedy on Santa Rosa's southwestern outskirts, pushed back against that "gag order" and characterized it as a violation of her free-speech rights.
Fowler says she was trying to make sure council members didn't interfere with the Santa Rosa Police Department's investigation of the shooting and stands by her advice.
"I'm surprised at how big of an issue this has become," Fowler said. "I think my email was very clear, and if it wasn't, she could have picked up the phone and called me."
Carlstrom tried to broker what she called a "detente" between the two and brought them together for a private meeting late last year. Combs, who said she was worried at the time she was under investigation for something, brought her own attorney. The two sides "hashed a bunch of stuff out," Carlstrom said. She hoped relations would improve, but they did not.
Escalating standoff
Combs privately sought to prove the advice Fowler gave to Wysocky -- and by association the entire council -- about the penalties for speaking about closed-session issues was wrong.
The first-term councilwoman secured an opinion from the state's Office of Legislative Counsel that supported that view, calling the case law Fowler relied on outdated.
Fowler disagrees with the interpretation and has stressed the broader point -- that council members shouldn't be revealing details of closed-session discussions.
She called it "unprecedented" for a council member to put out a press release, as Combs did, announcing that she had received an opinion contradicting the city attorney. She also called it "fascinating" that Combs timed the release of the information just before Wysocky's censure vote.
The standoff has confounded other council members. "I don't understand why Julie feels the need to make a public case against Caroline," Carlstrom said. "The continuation of this is really just mind-boggling."
Combs denies that her critique of Fowler is politically motivated, but admits partisanship is part of the reason she's been so public about it. Fowler has been given "glowing reviews" by the council majority and others' concerns about her performance have been minimized, she said.
"Some of us aren't sure it's so exemplary," Combs said.
She said she wants an honest discussion that recognizes Fowler's strengths and weaknesses instead of pretending the weaknesses don't exist. One of those weaknesses is a predisposition to err on the side of secrecy when the law requires erring on the side of transparency, Combs said.
Her office's track record is another. Combs pointed to an appellate court ruling that in 2013 fined the city nearly $40,000 for frivolous legal filings in its effort to preserve the right of bicyclists to ride through a gated community near Oakmont.
She noted that the language in that ruling, including the city's "repeated pattern of ignoring or misrepresenting relevant authority," is deeply troubling.
Combs said it has been difficult for her to be such a public critic of someone she previously got along with. The two used to have lunch and "for the most part she is a pleasant person," Combs said.
Given what she sees as Fowler's intransigence, and the council majority's unwillingness to face her shortcomings, Combs said she has no other choice than to press for the difficult discussion.
"Let's be honest and talk about the shadows along with the sunlight," Combs said. "And we've got a lot of shadows coming out of that office."
Fowler knows Combs and others want her to admit she was wrong, but she said she has no intention of doing so.
"I'm not going to be coerced by any council person into giving an opinion that I don't agree with," she said.

Early and middle Holocene in the Aegean Sea: interplay between high and low latitude climate variability
Marino, Gianluca, Rohling, Eelco J., Sangiorgi, Francesca, Hayes, Angela, Casford, James L., Lotter, André F., Kucera, Michal and Brinkhuis, Henk (2009) Early and middle Holocene in the Aegean Sea: interplay between high and low latitude climate variability. Quaternary Science Reviews, 28, (27-28), 3246-3262. (doi:10.1016/j.quascirev.2009.08.011).
Full text not available from this repository.
Changes in the orbital parameters, solar output, and ocean circulation are widely considered as main drivers of the Holocene climate. Yet, the interaction between these forcings and the role that they play to produce the pattern of changes observed in different domains of the climate system remain debated. Here, we present new early to middle Holocene season-specific sea surface temperature (SST) and d18Oseawater results, based on organic-walled dinoflagellate cyst and planktonic foraminiferal data from two sediment cores located in the central (SL21) and south-eastern (LC21) Aegean Sea (eastern Mediterranean). Today, this region is affected by high to mid latitude climate in winter and tropical/ subtropical climate in summer. The reconstructed d18Oseawater from LC21 displays a marked (w1.3%) negative shift between 10.7 and 9.7 ka BP, which represents the regional expression of the orbitally driven African monsoon intensification and attendant freshwater flooding into the eastern Mediterra- nean. A virtually contemporaneous shift, of the same sign and magnitude, is apparent in the d18Ospeleothem record from Soreq Cave (Northern Israel), an important part of which may therefore reflect a change in the isotopic composition of the moisture source region (Aegean and Levantine Seas). Our SST reconstructions show that Aegean winter SSTs decreased in concert with intensifications of the Siberian High, as reflected in the GISP2 nss [Kþ] record. Specifically, three distinct sea surface cooling events at 10.5, 9.5–9.03 and 8.8–7.8 ka BP in the central Aegean Sea match increases in GISP2 nss [Kþ]. These events also coincide with dry interludes in Indian monsoon, hinting at large (hemispheric) scale tele- connections during the early Holocene on centennial timescales. A prominent short-lived (w150 years) cooling event in core SL21 – centred on 8.2 ka BP – is coeval to the '8.2 ka BP event' in the Greenland d18Oice, which is commonly linked to a melt-water related perturbation of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation and associated ocean heat transport. By deciphering the phasing between a recently published record of reduced overflow from the Nordic Seas into the northern North Atlantic, the Greenland d18Oice '8.2 ka BP event' anomaly, and the short-lived cooling in SL21, we demonstrate severe far-field impacts of this North Atlantic event in the Aegean Sea. The Aegean is isolated from the North Atlantic oceanic circulation, so that signal transmission must have been of an atmospheric nature.

dc.description.abstract | In accordance with a 1986 NRC ruling, the MIT Research Reactor (MITR) is planning on converting from the use of highly enriched uranium (HEU) to low enriched uranium (LEU) for fuel. A component of the conversion analysis includes calculating the maximum hypothetical accident (MHA) dose implications for the two types of fuel. In this work, the dose levels at the site exclusion area boundary were calculated for the MITR MHA using both the HEU and LEU models of the MITR core. The core inventories from the reactor were calculated using the ORIGEN-S pointdepletion code linked to the MITR spectrum. The MITR spectrum was used from an MCODE simulation of the equilibrium LEU and HEU versions of the core. Release fractions from the melted fuel to containment were established using melt test data from plate-type fuel as well as modified release fractions from NRC Regulatory Guides. The dose paths considered were the same paths used in the previous work, consisting of atmospheric release through potential containment leakage as well as direct and scattered gamma dose from the containment source term. The Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) values were calculated in addition to the whole body and thyroid doses. For dose comparison the LEU thermal power was 17% higher than the HEU thermal power in order to provide equivalent total flux levels to the experimental ports. The results showed that the LEU core operating at 7 MW will yield TEDE levels 22% higher than the HEU core operating at 6 MW for equivalent release fractions. The two-hour dose at the exclusion area boundary from the LEU core operating at 7 MW using the plate-type fuel release fractions was 0.440 rem at 21 m and 0.344 rem at 8 m, while the dose from the HEU core operating at 6 MW was 0.361 rem at 21 m and 0.281 rem at 8 m. These doses are within the public dose NRC regulatory limit of 0.500 rem TEDE. | en_US |

Oxygen is shown to adsorb molecularly on a clean Cu(110) surface at 80 K and dissociate around 150 K forming atomic oxygen. Adsorption of oxygen on an HCl covered surface at low temperatures results in the formation of adsorbed hydroxyl groups and water in addition to adsorbed molecular oxygen. The molecular oxygen species is stable up to 190 K on the HCl covered surface.

Panasonic WhisperValue Bathroom Fan FV-10VS3 (REPLACES FV-10VS1)100 CFM: 36.4 Watts2.9 CFM/Watt: 1.5 sonesDuct Diameter (inches): 4" Oval Unit Depth: 3 3/4"Grille Size (inches sq.): 13"Speed: 869 RPMs Current: 0.11 Amps Static Pressure: 0.1 inches w.g. Power Rating: 120V / 60 Hz Certifications: UL and cUL Listed The WhisperValueT Series offers a quiet, low consumption fan with a housing depth of 3-3/4". This, combined with their low sone noise output make Panasonic the easy choice for bath "exhaust only" ventilation. Features include: Can be Mounted Vertically or Horizontally in Ceiling or Wall Mount Applications Low Power Consumption, Energy Star Compliant Saves Money on Electrical Bills Super Quiet Fan California Title-24 Compliant 3 Year Panasonic Warranty Easy InstallationFV-10VS1 features a 4" round compatible oval duct that can be easily installed in a 2x4 construction. The unique shape of the duct also allows a higher CFM to be maintained. In addition to ceiling mount, WhisperValue FV-10VS1 is UL listed for a wall mount application. The 3-3/4" housing depth is suitable with 2x4 wall frames.Low-Profile Housing for Walls and Smaller Ceiling Cavities Do you have 2" x 4" joists in your ceiling? Are you having trouble finding a ventilating fan that will fit in this small cavity? Well, this model was made just for you. Designed to fit 2" x 4" joists or larger, this low-profile fan doesn't sacrifice performance for size. This ventallation fan utilizes a 4" ovalled duct for those areas where a smaller duct is necessary. So Quiet You Might Not Know it's On This WhisperFitT fan features a totally enclosed condenser motor and a large, double suction blower wheel to quietly move air. A small wheel turning very fast will create more noise than a large wheel turning more slowly for a given airflow. Our fan uses a wide blower wheel that moves a large amount of air at reduced RPMs. The blower wheel is also designed to draw air in from both sides, which helps keep the noise down, as there is more area for the air to enter the wheel. In fact, it is quiet enough that you might not even know it's on. Continuous, Trouble-free Operation for Many Years This fan is designed to give you continuous, trouble-free operation for many years thanks in part to its high-quality components and permanently lubricated motors which wear at a slower pace. Also, since heat is always detrimental to motor life (the cooler the environment, the longer the motor will last), we designed the electrical configuration of this model's condenser motor to allow it to operate at lower temperatures, increasing the life of the motor and bearings. And, the fan housing is made of heavy-gauge zinc galvanized steel and painted to protect it from rust. User-Friendly Installation Detachable adaptors, firmly secured duct ends, adjustable mounting brackets (up to 26"), fan/motor units that detach easily from the housing and uncomplicated wiring all lend themselves to user-friendly installation. This model also features a double-hanger bar system for ideal positioning. Energy Star� Qualified for Energy Savings Energy Star qualified products feature super-quiet operation and high CFM-to-Watt efficiency. The Energy Star program was created to help consumers identify products that can save them money and protect the environment by saving energy. As an Energy Star partner, all our fans are Energy Star qualified and labeled accordingly. Tired of Cold Air Coming Through Your Ventilation Fan? This Panasonic fan has a built-in damper to prevent backdraft, which helps to prevent outside air from coming through the fan. Also, thanks to our efficient, cool running motors, it does not create excessive heat-a common problem with some competitors' fans. Loose fill or batt insulation can be placed directly over the fan housing to prevent heat from escaping.

Comments about Panasonic WhisperValue Bathroom Fan FV-10VS3:
This fan was as advertised, very quiet, and with a low profile, which I needed to fit the space between the rafters. The only difficulty with installation was the screw holding the plate over the power supply entrance. It required a mighty effort to break it loose. There were several brackets included and a number of installation options described in the manual, which was tucked into the fan cover and not located until install was done. I downloaded one from the internet to answer a couple of questions, but most of the install was obvious. Good product working well so far.

About Me Handyman, Homeowner
I used this in a powder room. My wife wanted to know if this would work since it was so quiet, but once she turned it on and could feel the air movement under and around the door she was more than satisfied. Although it is larger that recommended it is a perfect choice for our use. It easily handles the odors and does it with out any distraction.
Awesome !!!

Panasonic WhisperValue Bathroom Fan FV-1
By Tom
from Florida
Great Experiance ordering from BathroomFanExpert.com. I order 2 Panasonic fans, one for the master bath and this one for the kids bathroom. Both fans were old and needed to be replaced. Like my review on the FV-15VQ5, the instructions are not very good for replacing and existing fan. Once I figured it out, it went fine. Only complaint is that the exhaust opening is Oblong, not round. I wanted to use rigid pipe, but because of the opening had to go with flex pipe. A little noiser than the FV-15VQ5 but much quieter than the old fan it replaced. Over all very happy with the choice
Good purchase

Works as Advertised
By Hal
from Auburn, CA
Selected this unit to remove steam and provide ventilation for a 70 sq. foot bath/vanity area. The fan is pretty quiet and seems to move air well.Installing is a pain for two main reasons;1) Had to remove fan body from housing to begin installation. However, once the housing is in position, replacing the body is tricky. Great engineering brilliance here!2) The exhaust body sits RIGHT ON TOP of the sheetrock in the attic side. This makes it next to impossible, once the fan is installed, to properly install the duct to the fan.When I tried to make the electrical connection, I found the screw holding the electrical access cover was frozen and could not be removed. Either a machine at the factory accidentally applied 36,000 ft. lbs. of torque, or it was spot welded in place. That was a delight to solve...

City Newspaper (December 20) The Missing Pieces in the Sex-Offender Debate David Barry, clinical associate professor of psychiatry, discusses a sex-offender law being debated in Albany that would permit the state to hold many sex offenders in psychiatric hospitals after they've served their prison sentence.

IU School of Medicine researchers to lead new IUPUI-supported diabetes and kidney research centers
July 3, 2014
IUPUI has named two new centers -- one dedicated to diabetes research and the other focused on developing imaging methods for the diagnosis and treatment of kidney disease -- as 2014 recipients of initial funding under the IUPUI Signature Centers Initiative.
Both centers are led by faculty members at the IU School of Medicine. The Indiana Diabetes Research Center is directed by Raghu Mirmira, M.D., Ph.D., Eli Lilly and Company
Professor of Pediatric Diabetes. The Research Center for Quantitative Renal Imaging is co-directed by Gary Hutchins, Ph.D., John W. Beeler Professor of Radiology, and Bruce Molitoris, M.D., professor of medicine.
The IUPUI Signature Centers Initiative fosters the development of centers unique to IUPUI that can lead the way in world-class research and creative activities, and make a difference in the real world. The initiative provides each selected center with initial funding for a period of three years. This year's recipients were selected from a pool of five applications.
The mission of the Indiana Diabetes Research Center is to support training and promote research in diabetes, obesity and related metabolic disorders.
"With the alarming rise in diabetes, the center will play a key role in combatting this disease," said Dr. Mirmira, who is also a professor of pediatrics and of medicine at the IU School of Medicine.
The mission of the Research Center for Quantitative Renal Imaging is the development of quantitative imaging methods to diagnose and monitor kidney disease, and the evaluation of therapeutic intervention, said Dr. Hutchins, who is also a professor of radiology and imaging sciences at the IU School of Medicine.
"The establishment of this center represents a novel resource within the global nephrology and medical imaging communities," added Dr. Molitoris.
Currently, there is no comprehensive research center within the United States that is solely dedicated to achieving the center's mission, he said.
"I am delighted that through the Signature Centers Initiative we have been able to support the realization of these two distinctive centers, both of which aim at making significant contributions to the prevention and cure of debilitating diseases inflicting our society," said Kody Varahramyan, Ph.D., IUPUI vice chancellor for research.
Indiana Diabetes Research Center
The mission of this center is to foster knowledge, support training, and promote basic and translational research in diabetes and obesity, related metabolic disorders and their complications.

Re: bessel function with complex order
In article <c2lpqj$9du$1 at smc.vnet.net>, cirella at fis.uniroma3.it (cirella antonella) wrote: > I'm looking for the definition used by Mathematica 4.0 to evaluate > the Bessel function of the first kind with COMPLEX order. > Generally Bessel function of the first kind are defined only for REAL > order, This is not correct. There standard definition of the Bessel function is valid for unrestricted \[Nu]. For example, in Abramowitz and Stegun, BesselJ[\[Nu],z], can by defined by (and directly computed using) 9.1.10, 9.1.20, 9.1.22, 9.1.24, 9.1.26, 9.1.69 or 9.1.70 for complex order \[Nu]. Alternatively, at http://functions.wolfram.com/BesselAiryStruveFunctions/BesselJ/ you will see that the primary definition (which corresponds to 9.1.10) is valid for complex order \[Nu]. > but I have found that Mathematica can calculate Bessel function > with COMPEX order. > I would know: > 1)how Mathematica defines Bessel function of first kind with COMPLEX > order? > 2)how Mathematica estimates real and imaginary part of Bessel function > with COMPLEX order? Since I don't have access to the Mathematica internals, I cannot answer this question with certainty. However, using a hypergeometric form, e.g., http://functions.wolfram.com/BesselAiryStruveFunctions/BesselJ/26/01/02/ your question is related to the more general question asking how does Mathematica compute hypergeometric functions involving complex parameters. Anyway, here are three ways to compute BesselJ[n,z] with n = 1+I; z = 1.0; Directly: BesselJ[n,z] Using 9.1.10: (z/2)^n/Gamma[n + 1] Hypergeometric0F1[n + 1, -(z^2/4)] Using 9.1.20: 2 (z/2)^n NIntegrate[(1 - t^2)^(n - 1/2) Cos[z t], {t, 0, 1}]/ (Gamma[n + 1/2] Sqrt[Pi]) The answers are consistent.

:: Self-paced Courses
Grading Options
When you enroll in a University Extension self-paced online course, you are allowed to choose your grading option to take the course either for a letter grade or pass/fail. Most courses required for a degree must be taken for a letter grade, so before you choose the pass/fail option, check with your academic advisor if you are concerned about earning credit. You may change your grading option one time during your enrollment by submitting a request in writing before you have completed 50 percent of your assignments.
Examine your enrollment receipt carefully to make certain you have indicated the correct grading option. Once the final course grade has been reported to the Office of the Registrar, it cannot be changed. If you do not attend The University of Texas at Austin, your college or university has the option of accepting your grade toward your degree requirements.

Adapted, just a little, from Baked Explorations
Yield: 36 to 42 tablespoon-sized candies; I made 64 with a #70 (1/2-ounce) scoop and got 64
The classic recipes for buckeyes I've found on the web use up to twice the amount of powdered sugar (yes, 6 cups) and two full sticks of butter for the same amount of peanut butter. This variation is less aggressively sweet, with a little tang from cream cheese and warm flavors from the graham crumbs. The only thing I wished it had was salt — perhaps a quarter teaspoon? Maybe a half teaspoon of something light and flaky? I think that salt really brings out the flavor in a peanut butter candy (try just the peanut butter portion of a Reese's peanut butter cup alone if you don't believe me), especially against a chocolate coating.
1/4 cup (2 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 cups peanut butter (smooth, but you can use chunky if you are looking for more texture)
1 cup graham cracker crumbs (from about 14 graham crackers)
Salt (optional, see note up top)
3 cups confectioners' (powdered) sugar
10 tablespoons (1 1/4 sticks or 5 ounces) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
12 ounces dark chocolate (60 to 72%), coarsely chopped
Make the filling: In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and peanut butter together until combined. Add the graham cracker crumbs and beat for 10 seconds. Add the sugar and butter, and mix on the lowest speed until it stops floating off everywhere, then increase the speed until the ingredients are combined. Scrape down the whole bowl well, then mix again. The mixture will be quite sturdy and a little dry — perfect for shaping. Set it aside while you prepare the coating.
Make the coating: Melt the chocolate either over a double boiler, stirring until it is completely smooth or in a microwave in 30 then 10 second increments, stirring before you start it again until it is completely smooth. Let it cool to tepid (about 100 degrees, though I'd go a little cooler next time for a thicker coating; I had a few ounces of chocolate leftover) while you shape the peanut butter centers. [Alternately, you can temper the chocolate (fairly simply instructions here) for a perfect showy finish.]
Assemble the candies: Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Scoop out slightly more than one tablespoon's worth of filling (their suggestion; I used a scoop that made them a little smaller) and use your hands to form it into a ball. Place the ball on the prepared sheet and repeat the process until all of the candies have been shaped. They can sit close to each other but make sure they are not touching.
Using a fork or large skewer, dip each ball into the chocolate and roll it about so that almost the entire candy is coating, leaving a small circle uncoated. Play around with a few practice pieces; I found it easiest to stick the skewer in the side, angle the bowl I was using towards it and make sure it became submerged as I rolled the candy around. But don't fuss too much; even the "ugly" ones won't go to waste.
Chill the buckeyes until they are set, about 30 minutes.
Do ahead: Buckeyes will keep in the fridge for what the book says is 3 days, but I'd say at least a week, should you keep them in a lockbox and hide the key.

Our company began 125 years ago with a simple act of kindness between a worker and an executive at a Columbus, Georgia textile mill.
The worker's dress became tangled in factory machinery, and money she had sewn into her hem spilled onto the floor. Explaining she felt this was the safest place to keep her savings, a mill executive offered instead to secure her money in the mill safe and pay her interest. That same service was soon offered to all the workers, and those deposits marked the beginning of Synovus.
Since 1888, we have remained committed to serving others, offering solutions, and building trusting relationships with team members, customers, and shareholders. On those same guiding principles, we built a comprehensive financial services company that today operates in five states across the Southeast; yet, because of our relationship-driven, community banking model, in the nearly 170 communities we serve, we are still the local bank.
Synovus focuses on its position in high-growth Southeastern markets and commitment to being a great place to work to ensure the delivery of unparalleled customer experiences.

Practically Speaking about Amazon Web Services – Part 3
What is AMI and types of AMIs available in various regions?
Amazon Machine Image is the basic unit of computing provided by Amazon Web Services Elastic Computing Cloud EC2. As we see in Virtualization, these are virtual appliances ready to be launched as Virtual Machines. These AMIs contain an operating system software and additional software required to deliver the functionality of the AMI. There are public AMIs provided by Amazon, community provided AMIs and private Paid AMIs. Now, there are about 800 paid AMIs in the US, 300 Paid AMIs in Europe and 80 Paid AMIs in the Asia Pacific region.
We see that the Amazon Web Services market share of public cloud services will be considerable in the future. One of the main reasons is that are a lot of Paid AMIs that are going to be made available in the EC2 Service. As we can see now, AMIs from companies like Sun, IBM, Oracle are getting popular.
If we take Oracle, there are about 37 Paid AMIs available for Oracle. More than 5 are popular AMIs. They include Oracle Database 11g, Oracle Database 10g, Oracle Weblogic Server etc.,
Let us see a typical user case study as presented by AWS. Center for Bio-Medical Informatics (CBMI) at Harvard Medical School uses a custom AMI provided by Oracle to simulate millions of avatars for different genetics tests. Dr. Peter Tonellato of CBMI says that AWS solution is stable, robust, flexible and low cost. Source: http://aws.amazon.com/solutions/case-studies/harvard/
Jeff Barr, AWS Evangelist told a conference in Seattle that AWS is hosting 6 to 8 of top ten Facebook games. This will mean that several millions people are playing games hosted on Amazon Web Services without even knowing that. On the lighter side, if you are a Zynga's Farm Ville addict and experienced an occasional rare outage, do not blame Facebook entirely!
Amazon claims that its cloud services are being used in 190 countries worldwide. And some of the clients include NASA, NASDAQ, NYTimes, Netflix, Autodesk etc., Millions of customers sharing billions of photographs in the elegant SmugMug! SmugMug uses Amazon Web Services EC2 as its core infrastructure and S3 Storage for the petabytes of photos.
EC2, just fours years old and already grown up! Can't wait to see what the next 4 years will bring!

Kurt Rosenwinkel Standards Trio
Longtime fans of guitarist Kurt Rosenwinkel
Rosenwinkel's in-the-clear opening to Thelonious Monk
's "Reflections" literally mirrors the title of the composition, but has none of the dissonance associated with the composer. That void could be seen by traditionalists as "cleaning up Monk," a charge that could be tacked onto Rosenwinkel's take on Monk's "Ask Me How" later in the disc. And yet, both tunes are so cool that aesthetic arguments seem moot.Given Rosenwinkel's past performances, it's easy to imagine him deconstructing standards like "More Than You Know," strapping the remains onto his rocket-propelled axe, and firing it out into space. But Rosenwinkel's approach is all about respect...not only for the pieces and their composers, but for the time in which this music comes from. "You've Changed" is as warm and comfortable as a glass of mulled cider, and Dizzy Gillespie
's "You Go to My Head" absorbs the 21st century reverb and stays too smooth for school. Revis' solos on "Reflections" and "Ask" have marvelous depth and lyricism, while Harland creates a world of swirling effects throughout the disceven when it seems he's barely touching his kit at all. In the middle of this mash-up of classics is Rosenwinkel's own composition "East Coast Love Affair." First recorded in 1996, this tune almost qualifies as a standard on its own. Given the same smokey jazz club approach, "East Coast" blends in seamlessly with the rest of the date's material. Again, for fans of Rosenwinkel's earlier work, Reflections may require a perspective adjustment. But given the beauty and creativity of the disc, the paradigm shift is well worth it.

Marcus Strickland Trio
Strick Muzik
Imagine walking the high wire over a shark tank during a hailstorm. As metaphors go, it's pretty vivid and pretty dangerous. It's also the best way to illustrate the delicate balancing act that comes with fronting a sax trio datewhich may explain why it's rarely attempted, and rarely successful. With Idiosyncrasies, the Marcus Strickland
The Strickland original "Cuspy's Delight" sets the disc's winning tone, as Stricklands' tenor sax torches the off-time establishing figure while his brother E.J. Strickland
, on drums, counters and embroiders with impunity. The piece maintains its aggressive direction as Marcus backs off and E.J. launches his own solo, to make a tremendous noise with two sticks and a drum kit. Bassist Ben Williams has no intention of sitting back and watching the brothers duke it out: he is resonant to the max on Jaco Pastorius ' "Portrait of Tracy"; his solo on Marcus' own "Middleman" helps the piece get straight to the heart and soul; and Williams rumbles and growls while E.J. sets up the hypnotizing groove on Bjork's "Scatterheart.The latter track is an example of Marcus' delightfully eclectic choice of cover material. Idiosyncrasies closes with the breakneck "Time To Send Someone Away," a creation of Swedish singer-songwriter Jose Gonzalez and DJ/rapper Magnus "Embee" Bergkvist. OutKast's "She's Alive" is a stroll in the night through a less than benign neighborhood, lit only by Strickland's luminous tone, and E.J.'s titanic solo at the end of Stevie Wonder
's "You Got It Bad, Girl" segues seamlessly into Williams' in-the-clear opening to Malian singer Oumou Sangare's "Ne Bi Fe."Marcus expertly stretches the outside of the envelope on every solo, and his sense of narrative never falls flat. "Rebirth" is a passionate eulogy as full of love as it's full of grief, and he overdubs a flock of clarinets to build the technical marvel "The Child." Marcus' past work with trumpeter Dave Douglas
showed the reed player had the talent to mount a project like Idiosyncrasies, but the proof is in the pudding. Predictably, this pudding is exceptionally tasty.
Visit Marcus Strickland on the web.
John Patitucci Trio
The first thought that occurs during "Monk/Trane"the opening cut on bassist John Patitucci
Along with investigating the possibilities of this united musical front, Patitucci and his partners pay tribute to friends and influences, both past and present. The title tracka Patitucci solo piece that closes the discis dedicated to the late saxophonist Michael Brecker
, while other material was written in appreciation of artists ranging from saxophonist Sonny Rollins (the grooving "Sonny Side") to the late composer Olivier Messiaen (the off-kilter Second Line work-up "Messaien's Gumbo."). Lovano's blistering solo on "Joe Hen" is obviously driven by his love for tenor sax legend Joe Henderson , while the Freddie Hubbard homage "Blues for Freddie" is out to funk it up first and ask questions later...just like the late trumpeter liked it.The difference between the Patitucci Trio and the Lovano/Frisell/Motian triumvirate is with groove, in that the Patitucci Trio usually has one. This is not to say the latter trio doesn't make amazing, exploratory music; however, because of Motian's fascination with rubato and his insistence on being the ghost in the machine, his collaborations with Lovano and Frisell can meander, often to the point of distraction. Blade may be a minimalist in his own right, but he's always got a definite direction. The chemistry Patitucci and Blade built in the Wayne Shorter Quartet really shines through here, particularly on the floating "Meditations." (Admittedly this piece is rubato, but it's an exception, not the rule.)
Although Remembrance is a great example of an ironclad group aesthetic, Patitucci's best individual work comes on the title track, where he overdubs a doleful piccolo bass solo over his own 6-string electric bass foundation. This is not only Patitucci as craftsman, but Patitucci as a human being who's lost a dear frienda moving coda for a remarkable release.
