Youngest pulsar found in heart of exploded star NASA/GSFC NEWS RELEASE Posted: August 11, 2000
Other known pulsars, in comparison, are thousands to millions of years old. This pulsar, in the supernova remnant Kes 75, is about 300 years younger than the second-youngest pulsar, the Crab, which scientists have long considered to be the archetypal young pulsar. Yet, compared to the Crab, the Kes 75 pulsar spins ten times more slowly; it is slowing down at a rate ten times faster; and it has a magnetic field that is ten times greater -- all unexpected findings that may cause scientists to rethink the birth properties and evolution of pulsars. "People have been searching for this pulsar for years," said Dr. Eric Gotthelf, Associate Research Scientist at Columbia's Astrophysics Laboratory and lead author of a paper submitted to The Astrophysical Letters. "We have seen bright radio waves in the core of Kes 75, telltale evidence for a pulsar. The problem was that we were expecting to find a rapidly spinning 'Crab-like' pulsar. What we found is quite different from our expectations." Dr. Gotthelf located the pulsar, 60,000 light years from Earth on the far side of the Milky Way, with NASA's Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer, a powerful observatory that has been finding pulsars, neutron stars and black holes for the past four years. His colleagues are Dr. Gautam Vasisht of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif.; Michael Boylan-Kolchin, a student at Columbia; and Dr. Kenichi Torii of the Tsukuba Space Center in Japan. A pulsar is a type of neutron star, the core remains of a giant star that was once at least ten times more massive than the sun. Such a star, upon depleting all of its nuclear fuel, explodes, ejecting most of its outer shell and leaving only a core, which collapses upon itself to form a hot ember about 10 miles in diameter. The ejected material forms a beautiful supernova remnant of colorful gas, visible for several millennia in visible light and at X-ray and radio wavelengths. Pulsars have strong magnetic fields that channel electrons along the magnetic field lines away from the pulsar's polar regions. These electrons, accelerated to nearly the speed of light, radiate at the poles, particularly as radio waves, X rays and gamma-rays. Astronomers see pulsars "pulse" on and off as the beams of radiation from the rotating pulsar sweep across the Earth, like a beam from a lighthouse. Locating the pulsar associated with a given supernova remnant is not so straightforward. When the star explodes, the shock might kick the resulting pulsar away from the site of the explosion. Other times, the pulsar's beams of light might not sweep past the direction of the Earth, so it is never seen. Or, as is suspected in recent 1987a supernova, the stellar core might collapse into a black hole. "This pulsar is located right in the center of the supernova shell," said Gotthelf. "We only see this for a few other pulsars. So, the Kes 75 pulsar provides rather strong observational evidence that the neutron star is born in the stellar explosion that gives rise to the supernova remnant shell."
X-ray data reveals that the Kes 75 pulsar spins upon its axis once every 0.3 second, which is slow for young pulsars albeit fast compared to older ones. The pulsar's age is 700 years, consistent with the age of the supernova remnant that houses it. The Kes 75 pulsar is also at least 10 times more magnetic than ordinary pulsars and about 10 times weaker than magnetars, a mysterious, newly identified class of highly magnetized objects. The Kes 75 pulsar may therefore be a missing link between these classes of objects. The pulsar's magnetic field is 100 trillion times that of the Earth's and would distort compass readings a half million miles away. Such a strong magnetic force is actually rapidly slowing down the spin of the pulsar. Younger, highly magnetized, rapidly spinning pulsars provide astronomers with a wealth of information about this strange class of objects, first discovered only 33 years ago. Young pulsars are prone to starquakes, which changes the spin rate and reveals clues to their internal structure. Monitoring their change in spin rate allows astronomers to measure the rotational energy loss and compare it to the observed radiation. This provides a powerful probe of this central engine powering bright radio cores of supernova remnants. The Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer, launched in 1995, is operated from Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. The Rossi Explorer's large photon collecting area and ability to measure millisecond fluctuations in X-ray signals makes it a unique instrument to detect and study rapidly spinning objects. |

Loading... Lunch Lady and the Bake Sale Banditby Jarrett J. Krosoczka
None. None Loading...
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. Lunch Lady and the Bake Sale Bandit, written and illustrated by Jarrett Krosoczka (2010) is an entertaining and funny graphic novel for young people. It tells the story of the clever, super-hero like Lunch Lady as she solves a mystery at her elementary school. The illustrations help move the story along and are as important as the words. I can't wait to read the rest of the books in the Lunch Lady series! In the classroom, I would use this series as an opportunity to teach kids about how to read graphic novels -- how to follow the panels, and how to pay attention to the illustrations just as much as the words. Grades 2-5 A fun book. My students that I student teach for love the Lunch Lady books. If you haven't checked it out you should. I would defiantly recomend this book because it remined me of one of my favorite graphi novel books Captian Underpants. I would defiantly recomend reading this boook to your students because I am sure that they will love this book just like my students did. Review: After the goods for their school bake sale are stolen Lunch Lady is to the rescue. A group of the kids are also on the case following clues to find the thief so they can still raise money for their school field trip. Personal: I thought the storyline in the story was really easy to follow. I did not enjoy the graphics in this story though since the only colors used were black and yellow. I have learned though my daughter (2nd grade) really enjoys reading graphic novels and was trying to borrow this book before I was even done with it. Classroom Extension: 1. working as a class make homemade cookies to practice following directions. 2. Plan a class field trip and come up with ways to raise money to fund it. Wow! This is a very witty book! It is sure to make readers laugh! no reviews | add a review

The Den of Evil is a cave located in the Blood Moor in Diablo II. It is the optional side-area in the Blood Moor which is where the first quest of the game is completed. This cavern has rocky dirt floors, the walls are naturally formed stone, the only sign of civilization is the tripod-mounted braziers that light the musty cave.
The Den of Evil is the only side area in the Blood Moor. It appears as a cave decorated on the outside by certain symbols - most notably, the Fallen banner indicating the nature of its inhabitants.
Though the Den of Evil is a side area cave, it contains no golden chest in it. This is probably because players are most probably starting the game at Level 1 when they start this quest. Hence, giving them the opportunity to get magic items at such low levels would lead to game imbalance.
The Den of Evil is inhabited by many groups of Fallen led by Fallen Shaman. It also contains some Zombies and Gargantuan Beasts.
But the most notable member of the cave is probably the first super unique monster met by the player, the Spectral Hitting Zombie, Corpsefire. He is accompanied by his minions who are also tougher than regular members of the group. When killed, he will usually drop a few Mana or Health potions. Rarely, he will drop a Rejuvenation Potion.
In the Den of Evil quest of Act I, Akara asks you to kill all the monsters inside the Den, which she believes are massing for an attack against the Rogue Encampment.
When you complete the quest Akara awards you with an extra Skill Point.
- Almost every time a player does a run on this cave, an enemy or two will drop a ring. A ring is worth 900 Coins, and combined with the high probability of looting one, a new player can earn quite a bit of money by clearing out the cave, looting a ring, selling it, and then returning to the cave to do it all again.

JEFFERSON CITY — Changes to how Missouri casinos do business may make it easier for problem gamblers who have banned themselves from casinos to gamble.
State voters did away with a $500 loss limit last year, meaning casinos no longer require identification from patrons to track how much money they're spending. Gambling counselors say if ID isn't being checked, it's easier for those who have banned themselves from casinos to get through if they change their minds and decide to gamble.
State regulators told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch in Monday's edition that problem gamblers are still being caught. They say relapsed addicts are identified when they try to cash a check or get a cash advance on their credit card, they said.
Also if they claim a large jackpot, such as more than $1,200 at the slots, gamblers must file an IRS form. The cashier matches winners against the self-exclusion list. Banned gamblers are arrested and forfeit the money.
In 1996, Missouri began a program where self-identified problem gamblers could put themselves on a list where they would be arrested for trespassing if caught on casino premises. More than 14,000 have signed up and that list is still in effect.
But Missouri also had a loss limit program to try and contain how much money people spent at casinos. Before loss limits were repealed, every gambler had to present a driver's license or other state-issued ID. Identifying information was required to get a mandatory player's card in Missouri. That's no longer happening.
Missouri casinos say they still do all they can to police the list of people who have banned themselves from casinos.
Security officers are stationed at electronic turnstiles which count patrons as they enter. A count is required because casinos must pay $1 to the state and $1 to City Hall for each patron. The guards can ask for IDs.
While player's cards are no longer required, regular gamblers still use them because they want to get the complimentary meals and other rewards casinos offer in return for playing the games.
But the elimination of the need to show ID before gambling in Missouri appears to have led some back to the gaming floors.
Rick Cox, who counsels problem gamblers in St. Charles, said a man who had quit gambling returned to the casinos in November, telling Cox, "Once I found out that you didn't need a card anymore, it changed my thinking completely." The man gambled for months before being arrested.
Overall, arrests of those who shouldn't be in casinos are down. Gaming agents at the state's 12 casinos arrested 480 people on the "disassociated persons list" in the first half of 2009, compared with 584 during the same period last year, according to the Missouri Highway Patrol's gaming division. That's a drop of nearly 18 percent.
However, the number of people trying to stay away by placing themselves on the banned list keeps growing. An executive with Ameristar Casinos Inc., Troy Stremming, said he's glad about it. "We don't want them in there" if they're problem gamblers, he said.
Experts estimate that problem and pathological gambling affects from 2 percent to 4 percent of the adult population. Symptoms include being preoccupied with gambling, gambling to escape from problems and lying to family members to conceal the extent of gambling.

Echocardiographic guidance for transcatheter coil occlusion of patent ductus arteriosus in the catheterization laboratory. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 12724658 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
The objective of this study was to investigate the feasibility of transthoracic echocardiography as a guide to monitor the completeness of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) occlusion immediately after coil implantation. In all, 52 patients who underwent Gianturco coil implantation for PDA occlusion were evaluated by transthoracic echocardiography within 15 minutes after the first coil implantation in the catheterization laboratory. According to Doppler echocardiographic findings, these patients were classified into 3 groups: group 1, complete occlusion without residual shunt; group 2, a residual PDA diameter < 1 mm and no continuous waveforms detected; and group 3, a residual PDA diameter >or= 1 mm or continuous waveforms. There were 34 patients in group 1, 10 patients in group 2, and 8 patients in group 3. In a 12-month follow-up the complete occlusion rate was 100%, 90%, and 87.5% in groups 1, 2, and 3, respectively. We conclude that immediate Doppler echocardiography is useful in assessing the status of residual PDA just after coil implantation. Residual shunt < 1 mm and lack of continuous waveform on Doppler scan indicate sufficient ductal closure of PDA. |

The hydrodynamic transport properties of hard-sphere dispersions are calculated for volume fractions (φ) spanning the dilute limit up to the fluid–solid transition at φ=0.49. Particle distributions are generated by a Monte Carlo technique and the hydrodynamic interactions are calculated by Stokesian dynamics simulation. The effects of changing the number of particles in the simulation cell are investigated, and the scaling laws for the finite-size effects are determined. The effects of using various levels of approximation in computing both the far- and near-field hydrodynamic interactions are also examined. The transport properties associated with porous media—permeabilities and hindered diffusion coefficients—are determined here. The corresponding properties of freely mobile suspensions are determined in a companion paper [Phys. Fluids 31, 3462 (1988)].

A UK government and corporate consortium has announced a project to develop the next generation of digital learning software for schools. The £1.9 million R&D initiative, titled Project SILVER, will research the visualization of knowledge in the collaborative e-learning environment and develop a toolkit for educational use. The software platform will be independent of any specific subject domain and will allow teachers to add their own content.
The project will also develop a set of preloaded content relating to learning outcomes set out in the UK's National Curriculum. Teachers will be able to work with the predefined content bundles without modification or use them as a basis for developing lessons. A key part of the project will be to investigate new ways of delivering and content on newer hardware, including whiteboards and mobile devices.
With the software, users will be able to select multimedia assets related to a theme, visualize conceptual relationships associated with those assets and assemble them in different ways reflecting alternative perspectives. For example, a history teacher can assemble multimedia assets related to changing perspectives on the right to vote since the nineteenth century (such as photos, written testaments or modern-day videos).
This project, said Lady Bridgeman of the Bridgeman Art Library, "will help teachers and trainers to find, organize, model, link, comment on, annotate and augment any given subject matter."
The public-private effort involves five entities, the public Technology Strategy Board, which has provided £784,000 in funding; Lexera, which produces learning products and semantic content management technology; consulting and research firm Knowledge Media Institute; Bridgeman Education, an online museum resource for tutors and students; and the Bridgeman Art Library, an online source for images.

It's a few hours before my last race in Fairbanks, and I can't help but reflect on what an awesome week it's been. There have been some good races and some bad races, but the entire week has just been one great experience. From the Fun Cool bus to the ice sculptures last night, the week has been an adventure from start to finish. Everyone has been racing as fast as they can this week, and it's been fantastic. I will be sad to fly home tomorrow. There is a pic from the ice sculptures yesterday below!

made from corn
12 个顾客认为以下的评论有帮助
Reviewer2874534发表于 Apr 25, 2014
Actually pretty sad about this purchase. I missed the fine print about it being made from corn (which I cannot have). Since the packaging does not indicate otherwise, this most likely is from GMO corn. :( If this review has helped you make a more informed choice, please hit "yes" below!

Great tasting form of sweetener
8 个顾客认为以下的评论有帮助
Reviewer1115030发表于 Oct 05, 2008
This is a great tasting form of sweetener. Diseases take better hold in a body that is overly acidic (which now days is common for most busy people on the go)so this is an excellent sweetener because it is alkaline forming. It's even safe for Diabetics, Hypoglycemics & Candida Albicans. It has Antibiotic powers that kills bacteria & viruses and is used in toothpastes and is by far healthier and safer than Sweet N' Low, Equal and Splenda.

Non GMO
5 个顾客认为以下的评论有帮助
juliaheis发表于 Mar 22, 2012
This is pretty good xylitol, and I appreciate that it is non GMO (genetically modified). However, I prefer the birch xylitol, as it seems more gentle on the digestive system and birch is not so depleting to the soil as corn usually is.

Appropriately called "Send Last Location," the new capability will automatically send an iOS device's last known location to Apple when its battery drains to a predetermined point, giving owners one last chance to find it before it disappears from the grid.
At this stage, the threshold at which location data is sent and stored is unknown, but the current iCloud standard is to log a device's last known location for 24 hours. The extra time could be vital in finding a stolen iPhone or iPad.
Existing protection assets already allow users to track, send messages to, lock and wipe a lost or stolen device via iCloud. These features can be thwarted to some extent by turning the iPhone off and isolating it from a data connection, but a thief must break a user's passcode to gain functional access to the device.
It is unknown how the "Send Last Location" system will work when iOS 8 is released this fall, though it can be speculated that Apple will store a device's last known whereabouts and possibly make that information available to the user through the Find My iPhone tool. While the feature's toggle switch can be activated in the iOS 8 beta, the corresponding service may not yet be up and running.

DPC Members
Members' recommendations of digitization services
Friday, 18 June 2010 08:46
Coalition members have a great deal of experience in providing and contracting digitization services. Although other sources of advice on digitization are more up to date and thorough, recommendations about digitization are frequently sought from the DPC. In May 2010, staff at the Open University did a rapid survey of recommendations of digitization services used or provided by DPC members. The resulting list is for information only and may be helpful for those considering digitization: we deemed that it was more useful to publish the results of the survey so that others might use it than simply to keep the results internal, but please note this is not intended as a specific endoresement or recommendation: it is a record of the Open University's helpful research. You may also want to read our report on Digital Preservation and the JISC Digitization Programme.
TIFF or JPEG2000?
Wednesday, 27 January 2010 00:00
We are about to launch on a large digitisation project and at the eleventh hour an issue has come up over which format we should be using. The primary purpose of the project is to provide long term backup copies, although obviously once we have the images we can look at additional functionality.
My question, therefore, is whether TIFF is still the best format for long term preservation (this is our current position), or whether JPEG2000 would be a better option. While the general consensus of responses from my posting yesterday seems to be TIFF, there is an element of horizon-scanning and if JPEG2000 is the next big thing, maybe we should just bite the bullet?
Simple Checksum Utilities
Monday, 25 January 2010 00:00
I was at the Digital Preservation Road show in Edinburgh on 28th October 09. I heard several speakers insist that if we create or accept digital files part of the process should be running corruption checks with Checksum or Hash software.
I would like to know what free program to download to create the checksum for each file. How best to keep the information -print out or digital file- and how to make a comparison to spot corrupted bits 3 years in the future.
I wonder if you would be kind enough to recommend something not too complicated that we could use. I would be very grateful because I understand it is important but cant find my way through all the programs that spring up when searching on the internet.

Presentations: The Good, the Bad, and the Awful
The perils of Powerpoint afflict everyone. A few successes and failures...
1. The Maestro
Nintendo star designer Shigeru Miyamoto wowed industry colleagues months before the Wii's release when he silently conducted a virtual orchestra using the Wiimote. The performance began the buzz that's helped Nintendo sell 30 million consoles so far.
2. The Bullet Point
The Magic Bullet blender's infomercials intrigued with plots featuring a colorful couple whipping up five-second smoothies and omelets for oohing guests. Viewers bought $250 million worth in two years.
3. The King of Pain
The Police reunion tour last year earned mixed reviews as many fans disliked the massive, impersonal venues and the slowed-down renditions of favorite songs.
4. The Disaster
NASA determined that a root cause of space shuttle Columbia's crash was the Debris Assessment Team's PowerPoint predicting foam damage. It was so jammed with bullet points and shorthand that it was practically indecipherable.

Coming Monday, we will have extensive coverage from the World Telemedia conference in Berlin…our new MocoNews European contributing writer Peggy Anne Salz will be there, covering the show and panels. The annual conference always goes into nitty-gritty of European mobile content market, but the downside is the whole program is very vendor driven, with few content players on the panels or speaking.
In any case, Peggy will write about the best things happening there..she has been reporting on the mobile content industry since its inception. Her work has appeared in business publications such as WSJ Europe, WSJ Asia and The International Herald Tribune; as well as telecom trade pubs New Media Age, and Mobile Communications International. Her most recent report — Mobile Search & Content Discovery, published by Informa — explores the business potential of content discovery and search engine technologies and how they may assist media companies to monetize the Long Tail of hit and miss mobile content.
In general, besides continental conferences such as these, Peggy will be doing our ongoing interview series with industry leaders, with a particular focus on European content players, operators, handset players, and occasionally, vendors.

This product is very comfortable

A little on the small side
My foot size is 12 and these say they fit 7-12. However, they barely reach my ankle bone and not much sock shows above the top of the shoe. I guess that's what you get if you are on the high side of the range. I hope they don't shrink after washing. Also, they are a little thin and definitely do not provide cushioning to the foot. A bit disappointing for a well respected brand like FootJoy.

Only golf sock I wear
Got these as a birthday gift. I enjoy these socks and would have given them 5-stars but there was a weird stain on the outside sock in the pack that we didn't see until we got them home. Most of it washed right out and not worth returning....

Project Healing Waters Holds 2-Fly Contest For Veterans |
About Project Healing Waters Several months ago I heard about an organization called Project Healing Waters. As I was scanning a well-known news site on the internet, a photo banner with that name caught my eye. The name to be sure, evoked the symbolic imagery of the physical and spiritual properties of the river, but it was the pictures in the banner that really captured my attention. There, in front of me was a photo of a young man with a prosthetic arm, fly fishing on a little stream – another man by his side, instructing and mentoring him with his presentation. I think I was drawn to it first because it was about fly fishing, but when I saw that young man, obviously wounded, but still with the strength and courage to cast that rod with only one good arm, I had to look further. So, I clicked on that banner, thinking it would bring me to an advertisement for a worthy organization teaching the disabled to fly fish. I was surprised though, when it opened to a video presentation, set with emotional music in the background, of that man and several others – wounded warriors recently returned from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The video showed them with mentors from an organization called Project Healing Waters teaching them to fly fish for trout. Because I am a retired Army veteran myself, I was immediately touched and at the same time excited that perhaps this was something I could help with in some way. I felt at that moment that it was something that I had to do, so I dug a little deeper. Project Healing Waters describes itself as an organization"… dedicated to the physical and emotional rehabilitation of disabled active military service personnel and veterans through fly fishing and fly tying education and outings". It began modestly, helping wounded Veterans in the Washington, D.C. area, but rapidly expanded across the country, I think because it filled a void with fly fisherman who are altruistic by nature, but largely without a cause as worthy as this. Project Healing Waters now has chapters representing every part of the country and even one in Canada. I was consumed by thoughts for the next few days about whether I could help in any way? I talked with my wife and friends about it and they encouraged me to see if there was anything I could do. So my plan was to get in touch with the person listed on the website as the regional contact for the Northwest, Mr. Chuck Tye. I wanted to find out if he needed a local area coordinator. My thinking, at the time, was that maybe I could get something organized for my area – solicit donations and volunteers, that sort of thing. After all, I thought, I'm a Veteran myself. I work in an Army hospital, I love fly fishing, and I want to help. Well, little did I know. Chuck Tye, as it turns out, was the regional and the local coordinator and had been doing it for quite some time. Chuck wrote back to me and informed me of that fact, told me a little about the local history, and discussed with me ways that I could help. As it turns out, my ability to do the job it takes as a coordinator would have been woeful compared to Chuck's. A former Marine officer, he is a dynamic and energetic leader and organizer, just the man for the job - a large one, as it turns out. I know now that I could never do what he does and so I will be happy if I can help in other small ways. But having said that, I am sure Chuck would tell me that this article should not be about him, nor should it be about me. My intention is to tell you about one of the local events Chuck organized for Project Healing Waters. The Northwest Chapter works with wounded and disabled active duty soldiers and veterans from the VA and Joint Base Lewis and McChord. I first met Chuck Tye in person at one of the weekly fly-tying sessions he organized for the soldiers at the Ft. Lewis WTU. I remember the thrill I had of seeing those young men so involved and focused on the tying and could see how just doing that by itself would be therapeutic. Chuck and a couple volunteers were helping, but those young men were pretty good at what they were doing without the help. I should also mention that there are a slew of individuals and organizations that donate equipment and resources and volunteer their time to this worthy cause. In the Olympia area, Olympia Chapter of TU, in Seattle, the Washington Fly Fishing Club, and the Puget Sound Fly Fishers for Joint Base Lewis McChord are all big supporters. But this brings me to the story I wanted to write in the first place. Northwest Chapter Project Healing Waters 2 Fly Contest
It was with great pleasure that I accepted an invitation to attend the 1st Annual Project Healing Waters 2 Fly Contest held on Central Washington's beautiful Yakima River. My mission was simply to act as photographer, with the intent of putting together a slideshow similar to the one shown at the end of this article. The staging area for the event was at the Ellensburg, WA KOA in the group camping area. All I had to bring was a tent and a camera. Everything else was paid for by Project Healing Waters donations. The 2 Fly Contest was supported by 13 volunteer fishing partners, 13 rower/judges, 10 Project Healing Waters volunteers, and 3 local fly fishing shops - all to take 13 veterans fly-fishing for trout. The idea was that there would be 13 teams consisting of 1 fishing partner, 1 rower/judge, and 1 Veteran . Each team was allowed to choose four flies and would be limited to just two patterns, then set loose on the river in their drift boats to fish for 5 hours. Winners would be selected for the largest fish and the most fish caught for the day. The flies were all donated and were made available for the teams to select. It was pretty inspiring to see the experienced team fishing partners collaborating with the Veterans as they selected the flies for the next day. Somehow I believe it was therapeutic for both. There is a cathartic quality in the teaching as well as the learning, especially when it comes to anything to do with fly fishing. I truly saw in those volunteers, men who were inspired and honored to do what they were doing. It may sound cliché to say, but I think it was there way of giving back in the only way they knew to the young men have have sacrificed so much for all of us. Fly fishing is something they love and always have a desire to share with others, but especially with the young Veterans sponsored by Project Healing Waters. Arrival Day
The Veterans
who were the recipients of the event arrived and were introduced to
the participants that did not already know them. Others
were paired up with mentors who took the time to discuss strategy,
talk about fishing, or give some extra fly casting instruction.
These mentors were not just there for the contest. They were there
because they had something that was more than just a self-serving
Project Healing Waters gives these fly fishermen an opportunity that they might never
have realized had the organization never been founded.
Some were not there to do the fishing, though they too were
They offered services with
secondary skills that were a great benefit to the event in
other ways. Without them the it would not have been successful. Joan, Lonnie, Bob, Connie, and Jesse
were amazing assets as I know Chuck would agree. Jerry Daschofsky
had his incredible camp kitchen set-up and cooked some meals on his
assemblage of Dutch Ovens and
Camp Chef stoves that were
out of this world. It was
on my part, something that was totally unexpected and a really nice
surprise. Who would have
thought that there would be such hearty (and tasty!) meals at a camp-out. On
the day of the event for example, we woke to a meal of poached eggs
over hash cooked in the Dutch Ovens. The evening after the event had
concluded, Jerry served a delicious meal fit for royalty - prime rib, salmon, salad,
3-bean camp beans, and Dutch Oven apple cobbler. Wow!
And so that evening, after the first meal and when everything
settled down, all relaxed around the campfire, told stories, and
settled in for the night, anxious to get out on the water and start
The Day of the Event
morning of the event, everyone awakened to Jerry's breakfast and discussed strategy with their Veteran
partners while devouring the meal. Some teams had
yet to arrive and register so the start time was not scheduled until
11 AM. You could feel the excitement though, and some could not
restrain themselves from getting into their waders right away
making a few casts. I left early to start getting photos on the river and did not see
all the teams take off. I hear though that it was quite a scene. As
Chuck described it, "with thirteen trucks and boat trailers
departing it looked like a modern day land rush." The plan was to stagger them over three
different launches - Ringer's to mile maker 20, mile marker 20 to Red's, and Red's to the slab.
My plan was to get some photos at Ringer's, then move up and down the
river for more. I left early and regret that I missed the
take-off but I was satisfied that at least I was able to get
some of the great "fixxins" prepared by Jerry.
caught the first launch at Ringer's and was able to snap a couple
photos there, but was distracted by the large number of people launching
every size and shape of tube and raft that you can imagine. I never
realized how popular river tubing is on the Yakima, but I suppose
that is because the river is as nice a float for them as it is for
the fly-fisherman. I have heard that this annual summer deluge is
affectionately known by fly-fisherman as the "tube hatch".
Whatever it is called, it was was almost hilarious to see the drift
boat teams surrounded by all those tubers before they could make it
to less crowded waters. ...hardly worth it at that point to put a
fly in the water!
rest of my day was spent driving up and down the river to snap
photos. The Yakima is a big river and a little high for the time of
year. Plenty of fish were caught though, even with high water
conditions. I would like to say that I got lots of action photos of
fish being caught, but I just didn't get to the right place at the
right time. I did manage to catch a shot from across the river of
one "big" fish on a line. I can't name the fisherman and
the fish
got away, so I'm thinking he might not want me to mention his name
anyway. All in all, it was a great day of fishing and I saw lots
of contented Veterans on those healing waters. I wish I could
show all the photos here, but they would take up too much
space. Look in the near future for a slideshow similar to the one at
the bottom of this article.
Back at the Camp
the end of the day and after everyone returned to the camp, they
enjoyed the great meal prepared by Jerry and told their stories of
success and defeat. Then Chuck gathered everyone to announce the
winners. Carol, fishing with her veteran husband Les, caught the
biggest rainbow at 17 ½ inches. Jesse, from the Ft Lewis WTU, Jason,
a Ft
volunteer, and Ed, the rower/judge, caught the most fish with 6
trout. Donated prizes were awarded, a raffle was held for
additional prizes, laughter was shared, and all was well. That
night, those that remained sat around the campfire and told
"lies: and colorful stories. I think that I have seen a lot in my
time and I have heard some great storytellers, but those guys beat
them all. It was the most entertaining part of the day and a fitting
end to a great event.
Yes, the 1st Annual Project Healing Waters 2 Fly Contest was a great
and a memorable event - but most importantly, the Northwest Chapter
Project Healing Waters
working in community with the fly fishers of the Northwest helped 13
young Veterans, wounded in service to their country take another
leap forward in their struggle to return to a normal life.
*Note: I think I would be remiss if I did not say thank you for Chuck
to the following for
their support for the Project Healing Waters 2 Fly Contest:
Red's Fly Shop, the Trout Waters Fly Shop, the Whooly Bugger Fly Shop, and the Ellensburg KOA. Without their support this great event would not have been possible.
Please take the time to look at the video below to see more about
what Project Healing Waters is about.

Federal Privacy Legislation Not Expected Anytime Soon: Experts
Federal Privacy Legislation Not Expected Anytime Soon: Experts
Fahmida Y. Rashid
Posted 2011-05-16
Congress is likely to spend most of this year debating the details of various privacy measures, so it's unlikely that a comprehensive privacy bill would be voted on anytime soon.
Despite the flurry of privacy bills that have been introduced in Congress recently, legal experts don't expect to see a comprehensive privacy-protection law being passed anytime soon. There have been a lot of discussions about implementing the "Do Not Track" measure to give consumers a way to opt out of data tracking and to control what information is being collected by various Websites during the past few months. In response, several lawmakers have introduced comprehensive privacy legislation, including the "
Do Not Track
" bill from Sen. John D Rockefeller (D-W.Va.) and the "
privacy bill of rights
" from Sens. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and John Kerry (D-Mass.)
Even with the broad bipartisan and popular support, these bills will likely linger for a few years as Congress hammers out the details, Jim Halpert, a partner at DLA Piper, told eWEEK. He expects the bills to take approximately four to five years to pass through the Senate.
"Something that has a significant impact on the economy in general tends to get kicked around Congress for a bit," said Halpert. Congress is hesitant to pass a bill that could jeopardize the Internet economy. One or several online privacy bills would place restrictions on businesses, specifically what companies could do with customer data, Chris Wolf, a privacy attorney at Hogan Lovells, told eWEEK. It's possible a targeted privacy law would emerge, instead of a broad consumer privacy law, said Wolf. A targeted law would focus on a specific area, similar to how there are security protections for children's privacy online, health care data and financial security, according to Wolf. However, Wolf did not consider the proposed "Do Not Track" bill in the House of Representatives an example of a targeted law because the possible implementation was still very broad. "Everyone is talking about protecting all the data," said Wolf, who noted that there was little-to-no consensus on how this could be achieved. There are a lot of different opinions, and it would take time to address the issues. To date, Congress has not passed a single piece of privacy legislation that covers all offline data. In addition, Wolf believes that the odds of passing one law for online data remain remote. Just because the issue of online privacy is "popular" with the public doesn't necessarily mean that translates into its being a "high priority" on the legislative agenda, Halpert said. There is a lot of focus on privacy right now, thanks to several high-profile data breaches and concerns about
mobile devices collecting location data
, but there is no immediate crisis that would force Congress to move quickly, according to Halpert. "They will pass privacy legislation in due time, but they are not in a hurry," Halpert said. In contrast, there is an "increased chance" that there will be a comprehensive
cyber-security law
coming out of this session of Congress, according to Wolf. The cyber-security law would address the question of protecting the critical infrastructure and securing systems from cyber-attackers. On May 12, the Obama administration addressed some of the major points that were part of at least 50 distinct measures introduced last year. Of those 50 proposals, eight dealt with protecting critical infrastructure. It is likely that Sen. Henry Reid (D-Nev.) will be reconciling the existing bills and the proposals to introduce a new harmonized version, according to Wolf. There are more areas of consensus for cyber-security than currently exists for privacy legislation because the cyber-security bills are "not prescriptive," Wolf said. They tend to be process-oriented and focused on establishing a framework rather than defining what businesses have to do. By the same token, Halpert thought the online piracy bill,
, introduced by Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), giving the Justice Department authority to take down Websites distributing or selling counterfeit items, would be more likely to reach the floor for debate and vote. There is broad industry support for the bill, from the recording companies, Hollywood and other "copyright owners," said Halpert.

Temperature and Humidity: How It Can Affect You
Sometimes I am too hot then too cold, why do I sweat? These are examples of questions a friend of mine was asked by his wife over a period of three months, resulting in an answer that he truly regrets: "How would I know?"
While I do not advise people to take this approach with their significant others, I am sympathetic with his situation, the situation of not knowing what the problem is or if there is a problem.

3.5 efi vacuum advance tube Hello all . I have a 3.5 injected old 89model . I was checking vac advance function and have discovered my take off fitting for the vac adv tube on the plennum must be blocked in some way . Does anyone know if this little metal fitting on the top of the plenum which the tube plugs onto has a ball and spring or anything in it . I poke a wire into it and it seems blocked solid . At idle or reving slightly there is no air at all drawing into the manifold through the fitting with the hose disconnected . Thanks Mark |

plain fitting thanks Bee Utey . By plain fitting do you mean its simply a strait open tube into the throttle body . No obstructions ! Is the nipple seated in the alloy casting of the throttle body and theres a hole less than 1mm in the casting . The hole in the nipple seems larger then 1mm . Can I simply drill down through the nipple into the alloy at the existing internal diameter of the nipple maybe with some grease on the drill bit to collect the drill shavings ? Cheers |

Even as major political parties have set the ball in motion for electing the next President of India, the former President, A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, has not ruled out the possibility of being a consensus candidate.
Asked whether he was interested in contesting the election if he emerged as a consensus candidate and accepted by all major parties, Mr. Kalam said, "Let us see then."
Mr. Kalam said he was reading newspapers and watching television channels. In a lighter vein, he said he received information through one ear and let it go through the other. He would not think beyond that.
Asked about the informal announcement made by a few parties, particularly the Bharatiya Janata Party, that they were ready to accept his candidature, Mr. Kalam said he read about it in newspapers. He could not comment further on the debate at the moment.
He was speaking to The Hindu on Sunday at the Central Electrochemical Research Institute in Karaikudi before inaugurating the Centre for Innovation in Energy Research.

Estevanico, the Black Conquistador
The story of Estevanico, the first black conquistador in the New World, begins with the Portuguese conquest of the port city of Azemmour, Morocco, in 1513, when Estevanico was only 10 years old. Sold into slavery in Spain, Estevanico became the personal servant and good friend of Andres de Dorantes of Bejar del Castanar.
In 1527, both Dorantes and Estevanico joined Narvaez' expedition to conquer Florida. Out of only 80 men, Estevanico and Dorantes survived after being capsized on the shore near Galveston.
At first the natives were friendly, but later, Estevanico was enslaved for 5 years. He escaped from captivity and joined his master Dorantes, Alonso Castillo, and Cabeza de Vaca to try to return to the Spanish colonies in the New World.
Estevanico was excellent at learning the languages of the various Indian groups. With Cabeza de Vaca, he worked as a healer among the Indians and carried a medicine rattle, a beaded gourd with owl feathers on it, as his symbol.
Three years after completing the journey with Cabeza de Vaca in February 1539, Estevanico agreed to lead an expedition north into New Mexico to prepare the way for Coronado, who was considering going to look for the "Seven Golden Cities of Cibola." Estevanico was the advance scout for Friar Marcos de Niza. He went ahead and sent back runners every day with information and wooden crosses, which were supposed to indicate the excellence of the country. A small cross would mean that things were going well, but nothing important had been found. A larger cross would indicate a land better than Mexico. The exuberant Estevanico only sent back immense crosses!
Estevanico was extremely popular with the Indians he met. Hundreds of admirers, especially women, would follow him along the way.
Finally, in northwest New Mexico, Estevanico came to an impressive Zuni pueblo called Hawikuh. The Zuni people immediately distrusted Estevanico when they saw that his medicine gourd was decorated with owl feathers, which symbolized death to the Zunis. Estevanico was killed there and some reports say his body was cut up into little pieces and sent to all the neighboring villages to show that Estevanico was not superhuman.

Is it possible to modify the SQL 2005 performance dashboad reports so it pass the database name, start and end time parameters? We used to use Read80 trace for our consolidated enviornment and we made load/performance test mandatory as we have more than 150 applications on each enviornment with 3 big SQL consolidated enviornment. Since there is no read90 tool and performance dashboad is the closest at this moment, how can we retrict the report to produce for target database and targeted time frame that application runs the load? Let me know. Thanks a lot in advance.
Dashboard reports are custom reports that can be modified, or created from scratch and run from Management Studio. Doing what you want would be a lot of effort, and like Satya suggests, a third-party program might be easier. It just depends on how much time you have.
Thank you for the quick response. Do you know any third party tool by any chance? We are looking at idera and quest to see if we can find anything from them. If you know any other vendor and production let me know. I am also looking at ClearTrace as well. Thanks!
I would ask what Brad asked before, what is the requirement or format you need with those reports. May be Quest & Idera do have such capability but again you are limited by choice and not tailor-made to satisfy the requirement. As suggested you could refer to software spotlight articles section on this website for more information on such tools.
