Product Photos
The TS-7520-BOX is a multi-functional industrial controller based on a Cavium 250MHz ARM9 CPU that provides industrial grade opto-isolated input/output channels. Other features include Ethernet, USB Host, CAN, RS-232, RS-485, ADC, DAC PWM, Counters, etc. The plastic enclosure with DIN wall mounting support makes it a clean solution for industrial automation applications.
The TS-7520-BOX features a 250MHz Cavium ARM9 CPU and a 8000 LUT Lattice FPGA. With 64MB RAM booting from one of two MicroSD card slots, the TS-7520-BOX is a powerful and extremely reliable industrial embedded solution. External devices can connect to the TS-7520-BOX via Ethernet, USB, RS-232, RS-485, or CAN. The TS-7520-BOX is powered by a DC power supply anywhere in the 8-28V range. Dual internal microSD slots allows for expanded storage.
The RJ-45 connectors provide the following interfaces:
The digital inputs can act as edge counters, quadrature decoders, ADC triggers, or simple inputs. The outputs can be used for simple outputs or PWMs. The TS-7520-BOX also provides an internal header with the following functionalities:
Available with a DIN mount, the enclosure makes the TS-7520-BOX ready for immediate deployment. The enclosure label clearly identifies the pinouts on the RJ-45 connectors.
The TS-7520-BOX FPGA programming is open-source. If the many features provided in the standard load don't meet the needs of your application, you can modify the FPGA logic or hire Technologic Systems to do so for you.
Upon bootup, the default software automatically checks for an FPGA bitstream and loads it if it is present, overriding the default FPGA programming. To create your own bitstream, you need only the following resources:
See here for more instructions on FPGA development.
The TS-7520 SBC boots to Linux 2.6.24 from a microSD card. A bootable microSD card must contain a Linux kernel image, a initial ramdisk image, and a valid Linux root filesystem. The fast Linux bootup solution was optimized for speed and includes kernel, initrd, and filesystem (Busybox) tweaks. Since this board boots to an initrd (initial ram disk) with a read-only mounted filesystem, it is possible to have something other than a shell prompt running after bootup by editing the /linuxrc shell script on the initrd. Additional TS-7520-BOX software features include:
The TS-7520-BOX ships with a full-featured, open source data acquisition driver utility called daqctl. This utility gives full control over a wide variety of TS-7520-BOX hardware features including ADC, PWMs, quadrature, counters, and timestamped glitch detection. The FPGA can easily be programmed to interrupt the CPU under a wide variety of external conditions. A data acquisition network service is also supported, allowing for software control on a remote system.
Technologic Systems' TS-7520-BOX ARM Single Board Computers (SBC) are compatible with a wide range of Operating Systems (OS's). The Linux choice is highly recommended and our products are totally integrated with the open-source vision. The boards ship with Linux 2.6.24 kernel running out-of-the-box. There is no proprietary source code in the kernel since all the hardware specific functionality are handled by user-space utilities. The Linux kernel includes driver support for on-board hardware, enabling quick time to market of end-users applications. Examples and source code are also available for downloading.
The compact initial ramdisk filesystem is based on Busybox and uClibc and is improved for performance and flexibility. Specific Linux scripts and utilities that handle the TS-7520-BOX functions are included. In addition, the full Debian binaries and services are available from the initial ramdisk.
The TS-7520-BOX SBCs are configured to load Debian Linux from the microSD card during boot up time. The microSD card uses a full featured Debian "Lenny" Linux distribution which includes a complete GNU C/C++ embedded development environment. In addition, Apache Web Server, FTP, SSH, Telnet and Samba network services are available with C/PHP/Perl for embedded CGI development.
The TS-7520-BOX utilizes an Lattice XP2-144 FPGA core out of the box complete with documentation and sample code. The sample code provides a simple utility to send/receive CAN packets and perform useful and common functions with the CAN bus from userspace. Additionally, this sample code includes network CAN service and can be automatically started on TS-7520-BOX bootup which makes the writing of CAN enabled applications even simpler and furthermore allows for the possibility of development in languages other than C (Java, Python, etc..) and on systems other than the local Linux SBC (Linux/x86, Windows, etc..)

Watch and study a wide variety of TV commercials in order to understand their structure, pacing, backdrops and props. Lower budget spots, for example, generally take place at a single location such as a kitchen, use one to four characters, and employ frequent close-ups of the product. High-end commercials (for example, those for American Airlines) incorporate a montage of different locales, expensive or unusual props, lots of special effects, and more actors (even if their only purpose is to provide ambience). Some commercials use a single celebrity spokesperson; others use a man-on-the-street approach with improvisational feedback from regular workaday people. In addition, there are ads that employ animation, ads that show only select body parts (hands or feet), ads with catchy jingles, and ads that use voice-over narration to accompany a succession of photographs.
How to Write a TV Commercial
A TV commercial is the media equivalent of flash fiction in that you have only a scant 30 to 60 seconds to establish a problem or present an issue that is relevant to your viewers, provide a demonstration and/or supporting testimony of how and why it works, and then suggest a plan of action that shows how the problem can be resolved by using the service or product featured. While TV commercials for major companies such as Geico, Nike or Budweiser are written by advertising agencies, having a few "spec" scripts in your portfolio could help you land a dream job with a PR firm or just establish a neighborhood clientele of business owners looking for creative ways to reach their core demographic (for instance, Realtors or car dealers who pool their resources to buy air time).
Things You'll Need
- Computer
- Word processing software
- Internet access
Study the proper format of a TV commercial before you begin. At The Spec Bank website, you can see what sample commercials look like in their written format. If you already have a screenwriting software program such as Final Draft, you simply select the teleplay format from the menu and the system will plug all the elements into the right spots. If you're using Word, however, the easiest format to work with is to create a two column screen. To do this, proceed to Step 3.
Open a new Word document, click on "Page Layout," click on "Columns" and select "2." The top of the left-hand column is then labeled "Video" in all caps, and the top of the right-hand column is labeled "Audio" in upper and lower case. When you actually start writing your commercial script, all of the visual information is typed in all caps on the left and the corresponding audio (dialogue, music, and sound effects) is typed in upper and lower case on the right. Each of the video/audio sections is separated from the next segment by a line space. An example of what this looks like can be found at http://www.cybercollege.com/commerc.htm.
Decide on a topic for your TV commercial. Since this is a spec script, it can be for an existing product or a completely fictitious one---say, an aerosol that keeps dragons at bay. You might even want to take a character from a commercial that has already been done and make it the spokesperson for a different product (the Geico gecko selling baby food).
Identify your target demographic for the commercial. An ad targeted to young children, for instance, is going to use lots of snappy action and silliness. An ad targeted to upscale consumers will be imbued with sophisticated narration or dialogue and glam imagery (exotic locales, elegant residences, and luxury vehicles). A commercial targeted to harried housewives will focus on capturing scenarios that are instantly relatable to them (getting kids ready for school, preparing for a visit from the in-laws, or feeding hungry teenagers).
Determine the genre that best fits the product or service you're pitching in your commercial. Examples include comedy, drama, romance, and thriller.
Identify the primary attributes of the product or service you're writing about. These are the things that you're going to emphasize throughout your text. For a commercial to be successful, it needs to embrace one or more of the following elements: food, sex, self-esteem, economics, or safety. Analyze whether the attributes you have listed for your product cover these objectives. For example, let's say your commercial is about heat-and-eat snack rolls. It obviously addresses the element of food. If the unit cost of the snack rolls is low, it's going to appeal to families watching their budgets. Third, if a mom can put out a plate of snack rolls for her teenage daughter's hungry pals when they drop by the house after soccer practice, she's going to be thought of as a cool parent and this, in turn, will make her feel good about herself.
Determine the settings, props and number of characters you need to effectively convey your message. If this is your first spec script, keep it as simple and uncluttered as possible.
Hook your audience in the first frame. Try a daring question ("Is your refrigerator as clean as it should be?"), a suspenseful setup (a person breathlessly running down a dark street as he's being pursued), or a story-style format (virtually any commercial done by Hallmark). You might even want to dabble in a cliff-hanger motif. A good example of this was the series of commercials done by Taster's Choice coffee that invited the audience along on an extended ride to see if the attractive couple featured in the ads would ever actually get together.
Tips & Warnings
- A 30-second script should not exceed one typed page in length if you're formatting it as a two column spread. A 60-second script should not exceed one typed page if you're formatting it as a teleplay. An annual awards celebration, the Clios, acknowledges the best advertising campaigns that have been done throughout the world. Their website posts the winning entries and is fun to peruse. It might ignite some imagination, make you say "Wow!" and give you the giggles. If you want to compare how commercials have evolved over the decades, a visit to RetroJunk provides an amusing flash to the past.
- Keep your focus on the product or service you're pitching. Unlike in a novel, you don't have the luxury of a slow build-up and exposing multiple layers of character. You need to hit the ground running and make every single second count.

A provocative piece [6] this morning from Akiva Eldar, chief political columnist and an editorial writer for Haaretz. He describes the weakness of the Israeli government when faced with non-violent protest:
"They say the Israel Air Force can carry out a pinpoint strike against Iran's nuclear facilities, yet the Israel Defense Forces loses its cool when confronted by a small group of bicyclists armed solely with cameras. The Shin Bet security service knows how to locate terrorists and assassinate them, but has no clue how to cope with nonviolent civil disobedience."
After recounting all of the futile efforts at diplomacy and negotiations by the Palestinians in their suits and ties, Eldar advises:
"If Abbas was really so fed up he would replace his tie with a kaffiyeh and lead the masses in a protest march. The Oslo Accords have turned the Palestine Liberation Organization into the mechanism for maintaining the Israeli occupation. It's about time the Oslo generation of Palestinians admits the failure of the diplomatic option, hangs up its suits, weans itself from the pathetic honor it has accorded itself, and takes to the streets."
I can hear Gandhi and Dr. King cheering.

Released: Apr 01st, 1990
Running Time: 75
Director: Roy Karch
Company: Las Vegas Video
Mandi Wine, Erica Boyer, Blake Palmer, Jesse Eastern, Debi Diamond
Critical Rating: AA 1/2
Genre: Feature
Passion goddess Erica Boyer's return to the hetero wars (she gets it here both fore and aft) should be the main selling point of These Buns For Hire, a light-hearted and low calorie thought process anal romp set in an agency which provides those particular services to horny (and sometimes, funny) guys.
Debi Diamond is the receptionist. Blake Palmer is the client prone to a little goofing with Diamond's head before he tears her up on her desk. Jesse Eastern as another client at least does a better Dice-Clay impersonation than Scotty Schwartz. His reward? Mandi Wine in a pretty sultry bathtub sequence. Fairly hot action considering it's your standard knock-knock, come in the door, cum on your butt video.

Can I get some direction?
I've tried searching to see what direction has been provided to *absolute* neophytes, but either neophytes don't come here, or I am using bad search terms. Please forgive me if there are already a million answers to my request!
All that said, I really want to get in to DIY audio, and more generally in to a real understanding of audio equipment. I've found some purported "how to" sites for beginners, but they generally assume a level of technical knowledge that I don't have. So, broadly, I'd just like to be pointed in the direction of a nice primer for neophytes. I don't even know what I need to know, so I can't give more direction than that. My long-term goals are to be able to put together my own amp, build a speaker box of reasonable quality, and basically be able to speak to people who know what they're talking about without making a fool of myself. Thanks in advance for the help! |

Hello fellow neophyte. Well, not exactly, I was a neophyte four years ago.
Tony Gee; humblehomemadehifi.com is a great starting point for speakers. He will also give you great insight into the pro's of spending more money on the crossover parts then any other part of a speaker. Duelund and Mundorf are almost mandatory for the critical components. Search 'troelsgravesen' on the web for more speaker stuff. Building your own speakers is fun, easy, and easily outperforms many store bought stuff at a fraction of the price. One of the all time greats is the ProAc Responce 2.5 clone's. Search the web. I hope you still have a lot of vinyl, or are willing to buy some. I have an EMM Labs CDSAse CD/SACD player (one of the best), and it can't come close to an LP setup. I hope I don't get scolded for that statement. Search Pass Labs, or Burning Amp for amp building. If you are not up to that, go to AudioGon and buy a used tube integrated amp. Many other's will give you better advice, but that is a good starting point. |

Start with one subject and work outward from that. Speakers may be the easiest place to begin. Go to "How stuff works" for the basics and then google from there.
Start here and look at the headings starting part way down the page. Welcome aboard the good ship DIY. HowStuffWorks "Search" |

I feel your pain...
I visit three forums regularly. I don't know if it's OK to post the names of them here, so PM me and I'll give you the names of the other two. Between the three forums' experienced/"smart" members and other folks asking questions, most get answered. Other than that, a good way to start with an amp might be to purchase one through audiosector.com or chipamp.com and ask questions as you go along. A lot of members have built one of these and know a lot about them. Do the same with a proven design in speakers. I've built a couple amps, several sets of speakers, and a repaired a few receivers with the help of forum members. Mike

Yeah, some of this overshoot my head, and I've been at it since '85.
Speakers are of primary importance, and yet easy to start with. Check out kits available at madisound.com, seas.no, and perhaps even parts-express.com. There is a wide variety and cost options (I've been wanting a pair of Seas Thor's, but....), how much boom- tinkle do you want. Amps are wide ranging, but the chipamp types are relatively simple and bullet proof. I have one version, but the others are also good. Look for good documentation. all the best

Manucodia comrii Sclater, 1876 |
The Curl-crested Manucode (Manucodia comrii) is a large bird of paradise, about 43 cm long, with glossy purple, black and green plumage, red iris and crinkled yellowish-green upper breast and neck feathers. It has curled head feathering and twisted central tail feathers. It is the largest species of Manucode, and also the largest species in its family in terms of body size,[1] though its tail is shorter than the Black Sicklebill.
It is found in the Trobriand Islands and islands of the D'Entrecasteaux Archipelago. This species is also one of the largest and heaviest among birds of paradise. They eat fruits.
The British zoologist Philip Lutley Sclater named this species after Dr. Peter Comrie, who discovered the bird at Fergusson Island in 1874.

A Gala Debut for REACH
Published in TC Today - Volume 38, No. 1
"We take great pride in our history of supporting organizations and programs that strengthen the communities we serve," Gayle Jennings-O'Byrne, Vice President of Global Philanthropy for JPMorgan Chase, wrote to President Susan Fuhrman to announce the grant. "We commend the important work of your organization and are glad to support its efforts."
Last fall, a JPMorgan Chase ad appearing onstage during TC's Gala celebrated "our shared commitment to improving educational outcomes for children" and congratulated TC on "125 years of excellence in education." A promotion of the REACH partnership will appear in June on JPMorgan Chase ATM machines.
REACH is administered by TC's Office of School and Community Partnerships. Schools currently part of the network are Margaret Douglas School, Harriet Tubman School, Heritage High School (founded by TC faculty member Judith Burton, with funding from Trustee Joyce Cowin), Frederick Douglass Academy II, Columbia Secondary School and Teachers College Community School.

Drop-charge correlations for polydisperse electrostatically atomized liquid sprays
Wong, M.C.Y. and Shrimpton, J.S. (2004) Drop-charge correlations for polydisperse electrostatically atomized liquid sprays. IEEE Transactions on Dielectrics and Electrical Insulation, 11, (2), 362-368. (doi:10.1109/TDEI.2004.1285907).

In many applications liquid sprays are atomized using electrostatic methods, and typically these spray plumes containing drops that have a range of diameters. To understand and predict the dynamics of polydisperse electrically charged spray plumes, knowledge of how the electrical charge is distributed amongst the drops is required. This has been achieved by post-processing phase Doppler anemometry data for two electrostatically atomized liquid sprays and fitting the drop diameter-charge correlation to an assumed relationship of form q=ADn, Here q and D are drop charge and diameter and n and A are empirical constants that describe the correlation. Values of n and A were calculated to be 2.1 to 2.9 and 5.8 ×10-5 for a spray of specific charge 1.8 C/m3 and 2.1 to 3.2 and its value of A is 2.5×10-4for a spray of specific charge 1.2 C/m6. It was found that the mean drop charge, for all drop diameters, for both data-sets, was almost always less than the drop Rayleigh limit. This latter fact gives confidence in the procedure used since no restriction was placed on this parameter during the processing. We also estimate the distribution of drop charge about the mean value and as a function of diameter and suggest that small drops possess higher rms charge levels.

It's seriously eerie comparing what happened in Rome to what is slowly happening now. Rome was a much more advanced society than anyone we had before it, and in many ways we are the same way now But it's slowly falling apart the same way Rome did because there just isn't the money to sustain a welfare/warfare state.
The comparisons between the US and Rome are greatly exaggerated.
Empires rise and fall because that's the ****ing nature of life.
If we did everything ron Paul said, and drank up his blood so his dna would become ours, we still couldn't stop this country from going downhill. Because that's the nature of life.
The following users like this post: OUMallen
Worshiping one guy no matter how great he is has nothing to do with this. In fact it's the opposite of what the Ron Paul's of the world want. We need to be a society that cares about self reliance and work not on getting something from the evil and corrupt force that is government.Originally Posted by TenYards View Post
it's the nature of govt....those making decisions for the rest of us...Originally Posted by TenYards View Post
greed....corruption....it permeates every system of govt.....and eventually.....requires a massive reset
Yeah yeah, that will save us. You got it. If only everybody was self reliant like you and infringed copyright laws on youtube, then this country would just rise and rise and riiiiiiise like Bruce Wayne from that prison in The Dark Knight.Originally Posted by SoonerLibertarian View Post
Because if there's something that's helping the producers to be self-reliant is the fact that people put their work on youtube for free.
Things rise and then they fall. Welcome
to human history.
You people talk of government if it were a Chinese toy laced with led, and we are being fisted by it. Government is us. Government is your uncle, your dad, your friend, that jock that ****ed your high school sweetheart. Government is made up of people, and people are ****s. Libertarians are people.Originally Posted by 87sooner View Post
Couldn't make it though the video as it is woefully ignorant of Roman history. Do yourself a favor and skip it. Spend the time searching Youtube for Dr. Fears "Famous Romans" videos.
You know historical comparisons are horriblly inaccurate, right? The corcumstances surrounding each individual period cant ever be the same. And the term "history repeats itself" eats me up inside everytime I hear it(coming from a historian though).Originally Posted by SoonerLibertarian View Post
No any government is an oppressive force that has to take from the individual to go towards a collective. Any government should be looked as offensive to the individual.Originally Posted by TenYards View Post
Saying that from a position and point of view formed by said government you despise. And it's not the government, the term "modern state" is more accurate. Government assumes agency, and typically the actions of the modern state is agentless.Originally Posted by SoonerLibertarian View Post
Is it completely accurate? No because you are right that situations aren't 100% the same. But it doesn't take historians to know that government growth is bad for all civil, and individual rights.Originally Posted by party1234 View Post
The US government is statist. Not really any difference.Originally Posted by party1234 View Post
Not that you listen to reason, but growth of government under Lincoln freed the ****ing slaves. I consider that a good for all civil and individual rights.Originally Posted by SoonerLibertarian View Post
But I digress, let's all hop on that imaginary libertarian train that takes us to the land of rise, where economic problems, wars and disease are cured by Ron Paul's jizz.
More civil rights now or 1850?Originally Posted by SoonerLibertarian View Post
More individual rights in our beaurocracy, or in plebian Rome, or in the very small government of the crown in th 12th century?
Context is everything.
There's a big difference in the definition I'm using. The modern state involves institutions of control and observation, being agentless is a necessity. No individual action is necessary, the state, the institutions of the state not a individual political entity, is performing all the action. Referring to a specific government removes the agentless aspect. Certain forms of the us government are tenants of the modern state; jails, schools, policing, the military. But the government as a whole is not strictly speaking a modern state in foucaldian terms.Originally Posted by SoonerLibertarian View Post
Dude, I'm not arguing that the government is awesome, I'm arguing that you're an idiot for comparing the us to Rome. It's extremely elementary, and extremely incorrect, in any uneducated assumption you can make.Originally Posted by SoonerLibertarian View Post
This times a million.Originally Posted by party1234 View Post
You can easily compare certain things. The spending for example is really the downfall of both. Our welfare/warfare state are going to fall because the spending level is going to keep going up and the people are going to be too stupid to see it coming because they will keep taking free stuff from a government that has nothing to really give.Originally Posted by party1234 View Post
This is all some simplistic shit you heard on Fox News. What spending level? Spending level is referenced as a comparison to what? Previous spending in the US? Rome? Who are "the people"? What's "it" that's coming? What "free stuff" are people taking? If you're going to try and assemble and argument, actually provide some substance.Originally Posted by SoonerLibertarian View Post
I think people who upload copyrighted videos to YouTube are destroying this country, and enable entertainment welfare.
It's the government. Like Rome and stuff. With the spending that happens, and the people. It's so true.Originally Posted by TenYards View Post
Fox news, MSNBC, CNN, CBS, NBC, ABC are all the same news network anymore. They all want the wellfare/warfare state to thrive. None of them really tell news anymore or talk about the real issues or talk about what we need to do in getting rid of statism/government.
The debt is at about 16 trillion dollars that's about 142,000 dollars per tax payer. And this has only basically happened in less than the last century. And a vast majority in the last 60 years or so. And about 11 trillion of it is only the last 12 years. About 8 trillion in the last 5 years. It's not been a republican or democrat problem is both parties. It's at a point where there's no difference in the parties anymore. It's what you want them to spend it on and how quick you want them to spend all the money til there is no more wealth. The democrats probably win there. They will probably run the state into the ground a lot quicker than republicans. But it's not like there's a big difference.
The welfare/warfare state that our government currently thrives on will fall. You can't pay for it the way we currently have it by just increasing the rolls of people on the dole. More people today are on things like food stamps, more people taking welfare, more people live off the government now than ever before.
I think it started going downhill when Rome did away with the foreign language requirement.
Read some Gibbon. There were plenty of contributing factors to the fall of Rome.Originally Posted by SoonerLibertarian View Post
Fox News wants the welfare state to thrive??

Pachycephalosaurus |
Welcome to Pachycephalosaurus.org our website about a herbivore (plant-eating) dinosaur known for the thick bony dome on its head. Pachycephalosaurus was a herbivore (plating-eating) dinosaur that lived during the late Cretaceous period, between approximately 76 and 65 million years ago. It has been estimated that Pachycephalosaurus was probably about 15 feet (4.5 meters) long, and perhaps weighed 950 pounds (430 kilograms). The best known feature of Pachycephalosaurus is the thick bone dome on its head. This dome was about 10 inches (25 centimeters) thick. Additionally, at the back of the dome were several short bony spikes. To discover more about Pachycephalosaurus, or to go shopping for Pachycephalosaurus stuff, please select from:

Bates eBill Notification
Bates produces online bills (eBills) that can be accessed through the student's Garnet Gateway account. Students and parents (if the student has provided authorization) are notified monthly by email when bills are ready to be viewed. If a student doesn't authorize a parent to have access to the bill, the student receives all eBill notification and assumes responsibility for payment.
Online bill notification is sent by Student Financial Services on or around July 10 for the fall semester, and November 10 for the winter semester. Students are strongly encouraged to make sure their parents or other sponsors have access to the bill by authorizing access through the Garnet Gateway. Questions concerning the eBill or payment to Bates should be directed to email@example.com.
Payment Options
Students and parents can pay by check or use a checking or statement savings account to pay online. Bates does not accept credit cards for payment of the student account.
International Payments
Bates has partnered with peerTransfer to streamline the tuition payment process for international students and families. peerTransfer's mission is to save international students and their families money that would otherwise be lost on bank fees and unfavorable foreign exchange rates. Families who use peerTransfer are offered excellent foreign exchange rates and are able to pay in their home currency, saving a significant amount of money compared to traditional banks. Families can track payments online through the transfer process, and are provided with email confirmation when payment is received by Bates.
Payment Policies
All student charges must be paid by the published due date each semester. A late payment fee of 1% of the outstanding balance is assessed each month for accounts with balances greater than $500.
Financial aid that has been awarded and anticipated proceeds from student and parent loans that have been certified by Bates are deducted from the balance due before any late fees are assessed. Students are encouraged to check their financial aid status on the Garnet Gateway to make certain that all financial aid requirements have been received.
Students who have not submitted required financial aid documentation by applicable deadlines and have therefore not received a financial aid award are not exempt from late fee charges, nor are they permitted to delay payment.
Outside scholarships are applied to student accounts when they are received; anticipated payments are not deducted from the balance due before late fees are applied.
Scholarship checks from private organizations should be mailed directly to Student Financial Services. Please do not mail scholarship checks with other payments. Scholarships are divided evenly (unless noted otherwise by the donor) between semesters.

Iridescence (also known as goniochromism) is the property of certain surfaces that appear to change colour as the angle of view or the angle of illumination changes. Examples of iridescence include soap bubbles, butterfly wings and sea shells, as well as certain minerals. It is often created by structural coloration (microstructures which interfere with light).
The word iridescence is derived in part from the Greek word ἶρις îris (gen. ἴριδος íridos), meaning rainbow, and is combined with the Latin suffix -escent, meaning "having a tendency toward."[1] Iris in turn derives from the goddess Iris of Greek mythology, who is the personification of the rainbow and acted as a messenger of the gods. Goniochromism is derived from the Greek words gonia, meaning "angle", and chroma, meaning "colour".
This section requires expansion. (April 2014) |
Iridescence is an optical phenomenon of surfaces in which hue changes with the angle of observation and the angle of illumination.[2][3] It is often caused by multiple reflections from two or more semi-transparent surfaces in which phase shift and interference of the reflections modulates the incidental light (by amplifying or attenuating some frequencies more than others).[2][4] The thickness of the layers of the material determines the interference pattern. Iridescence can for example be due to thin-film interference, the functional analogue of selective wavelength attenuation as seen with the Fabry–Pérot interferometer, and can be seen in oil films on water and soap bubbles. Iridescence is also found in plants, animals and many other items. The range of colours of natural iridescent objects can be narrow, for example shifting between two or three colours as the viewing angle changes,[5][6] or a wide range of colours can be observed.[7]
Iridescence can also be created by diffraction. This is found in items like CDs, DVDs, or cloud iridescence.[8] In the case of diffraction, the entire rainbow of colours will typically be observed as the viewing angle changes. In biology, this type of iridescence results from the formation of diffraction gratings on the surface, such as the long rows of cells in striated muscle. Some types of flower petals can also generate a diffraction grating, but the iridescence is not visible to man and flower visiting insects as the diffraction signal is overruled by the coloration due to plant pigments.[9][10][11]
In biological (and biomimetic) uses, colours produced other than with pigments or dyes are called structural coloration. Microstructures, often multilayered, are used to produce bright but sometimes non-iridescent colours: quite elaborate arrangements are needed to avoid reflecting different colours in different directions. Structural coloration has been understood in general terms since Robert Hooke's 1665 book Micrographia, where Hooke correctly noted that since the iridescence of a peacock's feather was lost when it was plunged into water, but reappeared when it was returned to the air, pigments could not be responsible.[12][13] It was later found that iridescence in the peacock is due to a complex photonic crystal.[14]

Structurally coloured wings of a Tachinid fly
The feathers of birds such as kingfishers,[15] Birds-of-paradise,[16] hummingbirds, parrots, starlings,[17] grackles, ducks, and peacocks[14] are iridescent. The lateral line on the Neon tetra is also iridescent.[5] A single iridescent species of gecko, Cnemaspis kolhapurensis, was identified in India in 2009.[18] The tapetum lucidum, present in the eyes of many vertebrates, is also iridescent.[19]

We drove from BWV and parked at CR for Chef Mickeys - can I leave my car here and take monorail to MK? Plan on staying all day.
Saw your responses too late - DH had already decided that we should hop on the monorail - we stayed at MK until about 7:30 pm and then took a monorail back to the CR. Had no problem at all with leaving car in self parking. Luckily it worked out just as we had hoped!
It didn't work out quite so well for the couple paying hundreds of dollars a night to stay at the CR who came back to the hotel after breakfast out and couldn't find a place to park, since the lot was full from folks parking there and going to the MK on the Monorail!!!!
Your profile says you've been DVC members since 02 - I really would have thought that you'd know that this isn't allowed.
Maybe we can turn them in....MouseCrimeStoppers! But it's true, you definitely dodged a MAJOR "bullet" ! Live and learn. Have a great trip!
This just cracked me up! These Dis boards read more dramatically than the stuff I read in college literature! OP, hope you have a great trip!
Omg so right & so ridiculous!!! Oh & pls the CR parking lot is HUGE! We stay CR, POLY & GF & I don't have a problem with finding parking ever. My only issue has been pool hoppers that's it.. ASMU/POR Dec 16-22, 2012 & CR Sept 8-15, 2013
I guess the guard didn't give you a 3 hour pass. Security should be trained better. Glad you weren't towed.
Guess you were either lucky or staying at a less busy time. We've stayed at both Poly and CR and there have definitely been times when it was difficult to find a spot.
If the guard lets you in and doesn't say anything about a 3 hour policy then I don't see anything wrong. They must have not cared for some reason (lazy, lot not expected to be full, etc.). Obviously the OP didn't know or they wouldn't have asked here. HOnestly, I only knew about the rule from reading on here. One trip, we wanted to walk around the Boardwalk and eat (no reservation) and just told the guard we wanted to eat and browse. He let us through and did not say anything. If we would have been towed, that would have been ridiculous because it is not indicated anywhere at entry and was not explained to us about this rule. Maybe the guards are informed not to always enforce it under certain circumstances. If you intentionally lie to avoid parking fees than thats on you but they went to a reservation.
We've never been told of any 3 hr policy ever. Maybe it's because we stay on property and have our resort parking pass? Whenever we go to another resort for dinner or whatever the reason we show our ID and are waved in to self parking. No mention of anything else.

Julie Orringer's astonishing first novel, eagerly awaited since the publication of her heralded best-selling short-story collection, How to Breathe Underwater, is a grand love story set against the backdrop of Budapest and Paris, an epic tale of three brothers whose lives are ravaged by war, and the chronicle of one family's struggle against the forces that threaten to annihilate it.
Paris 1937. Andras Lvi, a Hungarian-Jewish architecture student, arrives from Budapest with a scholarship, a single suitcase, and a mysterious letter he has promised to deliver to C. Morgenstern on the rue de Svign. As he falls into a complicated relationship with the letters recipient, he becomes privy to a secret history that will alter the course of his own life.
Meanwhile, as his elder brother takes up medical studies in Modena and their younger brother leaves school for the stage, Europe's unfolding tragedy sends each of their lives into terrifying uncertainty. At the end of Andrass second summer in Paris, all of Europe erupts in a cataclysm of war.
From the small Hungarian town of Konyr to the grand opera houses of Budapest and Paris, from the lonely chill of Andrass room on the rue des coles to the deep and enduring connection he discovers on the rue de Svign, from the despair of Carpathian winter to an unimaginable life in forced labor camps and beyond, The Invisible Bridge tells the story of a love tested by disaster, of brothers whose bonds cannot be broken, of a family shattered and remade in history's darkest hour, and of the dangerous power of art in a time of war.
Expertly crafted, magnificently written, emotionally haunting, and impossible to put down, The Invisible Bridge resoundingly confirms Julie Orringer's place as one of todays most vital and commanding young literary talents.
©2010 Julie Orringer (P)2010 Random House
"To bring an entire lost world....to vivid life between the covers of a novel is an accomplishment; to invest that world, and everyone who inhabits it, with a soul, as Julie Orringer does in The Invisible Bridge, takes something more like genius." (Michael Chabon)
"Profound love, familial bonds and the deepest of human loyalties play out against the backdrop of unimaginable cruelty. . . . A stunning first novel." (Los Angeles Times)
"One of the best books of the year." (Junot Diaz)
"The Critics Got in Right"
I'm usually sceptical when a book gets rave reviews from the professional critics, but this time they got it right. The Invisible Bridge is a phenomenal novel, quite old-fashioned, and devoid of literary gimmicks and clandestine intentions of the author to preach or moralize. In short, it is beautifully written in a classic prose style, through which Julie Orringer creates an atmosphere of both passion and gloom in an historical setting that, while generally well-known, focuses first on sinister pre-World War II Paris, and then moves to lesser known Hungary after WWII begins. Orringer creates characters with multiple frailties, like most people I know, but whose virtues are enough that ultimately I cared deeply about their fates. The short epilogue was as moving as anything I can remember reading. Call The Invisible Bridge a saga, an epic, a profoundly moving love story; take your pick.
For a long time, I hesitated to buy this book and changed my mind about the purchase several times after adding it to my wish list. At 28 hours, it is by far the longest audio book I've ever listened to and I didn't want to make a mistake. I was finally persuaded to give it a try by the high quality of the reader reviews on amazon.com from those who were captivated by the book. After a somewhat slow start, Orringer's beautiful prose, attention to detail, atmosphere of hope amid impending doom, brought me into the narrative in such depth that I listened to it for long hours at a time. This is a serious literary novel for a serious reader. Many books that I read tell good and interesting stories, but seldom rise to the ranks of literature. For me, The Invisible Bridge combines the best of both worlds: a captivating, fluid narrative, with a fine piece of writing.
"Great story of a family"
I loved this book. I learned so much about Hungary. The country was ravaged by war and leaders. The stories of the Jewish traumas are so personal and poignant. Beautiful writing!
"Now I understand"
My mother lived through the German occupation as a little girl in Hungary. She has many quirks, fears and nerausies that never made any sense to me until I read this book. It was as though I was experiencing the endless suffering with the books characters followed by brief periods of hope for better times followed by more suffering and the continuing deteriation of the human condition year and year after year. Yet, I couldn't stop listening and continued to keep the hope alive myself as this author seemed to capture the essence of what it must have been like to live through such a horrible period in history. I must thank the author for helping me to understand this piece of my families history while apologize to my mother for never really understanding what she went through. Sorry mom!
English major. Love to read
"Excellent read"
I wouldn't be put off by the scoffs at the narrator and not read this book. Mr. Morey has a pretty poor French accent, but otherwise he reads well
and the book should nor be missed. Excellent story and wonderful characters.
"Good book ruined by a bad reader"
A good book was ruined by the incredibly bad mis-pronunciation of French words by the reader. He obviously had NOT done his homework, and it was most distracting.
"Survival and love..an engrossing listen."
This novel takes a moment to set the stage. Yet once it does you find yourself a jewish boy facing antisemitism in pre world war II europe.
The subtleties of class and culture are explored. Plus the main character finds love which helps sustain him through the complex emotions and situations of the war. This is not a novel about concentration camps, but a narrative story of someone who lives, loves, and breathes during the war. His fears and longings become real to the listener. You become part of his world and can find a different edge than what one normally expects from a WWII novel. I highly reccommend this story. Please note, however, that the narrator is poorly skilled. Luckily, the story is written lively enough to compensate for this shortcoming.
"Excellent story - improvable on narration"
This book ranks amongst the best I have read or listened to so far. Unfortunately it is almost spoiled by the incapability of the narrator to correctly pronounce as much as one single hungarian or french name or phrase and the author uses quiet a few of them. This does bother me as I am capable of both languages but might not affect listeners who don`t speak the languages. However, the book itself - the story, the characters ... amazing read.
Tell us about yourself!I am an avid reader but enjoy listening while waking to work, ironing, doing dishes, etc. Listening to novels is an entirely different experience than reading; a well narrated story is a cross between drama and written fiction. Listening to books on Audible has been a wonderful experience.
"Hungarian view on WWII"
Overall good and complex story line with a view towards a part of WWII that I had little understanding of: Hungarian jews and the eastern front. Characters are well developed and deep.
He is an adequate reader but does a very poor job with French. His Hungarian sounded authentic but I am not Hungarian to know for sure.
Development in the first half of the novel took too long to unfold for my taste. The novel's considerable strength is in the 2nd half so the long 1st half dragged a bit for me.
"The missed notation"
Somehow, (I can't believe I missed it) the fact that this audio book runs almost 28 hours in length was not something I noticed when I purchased the book. As I always try to start what I finish, I did listen all the way to the end. It took almost 4+ hours for me to really be interested, and then the ending felt almost rushed - given that so much time and detail was spent on the earlier parts of the book. So, if you have 28 hours... be my guest.
"Great book, awful narration"
It is a testament to the strength of this book that I listened to all four downloads. The story is riveting, I learned a lot about Hungary before and during WWII and even though it's "another Holocaust" book, it's really, really good. However, the narration is awful. Mr. Morey's voice is a snooze fest. Worse yet, he mispronounces his Hebrew and German words and mangles some French ones...I don't know Hungarian so I can't comment there. It is a major pet peeve of mine when narrators don't take the time to ask someone who knows the language, how to pronounce the words - and Morey does this over and over again. This would have been a 10-star review with a different narrator.
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.

Released: May 01st, 1991
Running Time: 75
Director: John Stallion
Company: Video Exclusives
Holly Daze, Cheri Hill, Natasha Skylar, Shone Taylor, Buck Adams, Blake Palmer, Brandy Wine
Critical Rating: AA
Genre: Feature
A few months ago, I suggested to one of this company's director that their videos could be improved with longer running times to flesh out the stories. They seemed to have taken my advice because they added a one-minute plot. Unfortunately this is wasted, with Buck Adams mumbling into the phone at the beginning about some business dealings which never resurface. Director Stallion seems to have forgotten whether Shone Taylor is a bartender or a pool boy. Otherwise, this isn't a half-bad video. The girls seem to be enjoying the sex: Natasha with Buck and Blake with Holly Daze are two standouts; and the always attractive Brandy Wine looks better than ever. But the lack of connection between the scenes or continuity works against us. Maybe another minute...maybe not.

Depends on how and what your hunting. A 4x or ghack 3-9x40mm would be a good starting point. Check Nikon, Bushnell, Vortex, Weaver.
I have a 2-7x40 Center Point on my deer gun. I like the 2x for hunting in the woods. I hunt on a field edge stand. I have woods behind me and field in front. Too much magnification on the bottom end can have you not being able to find the deer in the scope when they are moving through the trees.
Alright thanks for the info guys i think i might just stay with my fiber optic sights
Actually I would go with a Red dot 0 magnification. Quick on the shot and really nice being able to shoot with 2 eyes open. This is the one I use on mine. Very fast and works well. Plus from a vendor of the site.http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/pid=31841/Product/TROPHY_TRS_25_RED_DOT_SIGHT
Thanks thats what I was looking for was something to make quick shots with on deer. I think i'll go with that.
I have a Bushnell 32mm 1.75-4 power shotgun scope that i'm going to put on my 870,I used it on my .444 and it has great eye relief,like 8" or something so you won't hurt yourself on 3" slugs,I like the reticle too,it was like $65 bucks.
