An apparatus for the gripping of plants located in a container is disclosed. This apparatus comprises a pushing element, which pushes the ball of the plant upwardly from underneath, until the ball is released for a substantial part above the container. Then the ball is gripped by a number of gripping arms, movable in a horizontal direction, which transports the ball including the plant to its destination. To be able to push the ball upwards the continer comprises at location of each of the cavities for the balls a guiding channel for the pushing element. This channel has a cross-section of a star-like configuration, the number of points thereof coinciding with the number of points of the pushing element.
1. Container for plants being provided in balls, comprising a substantially flat body, in which cavities open towards an upper side are provided according to a regular pattern, the cavities having a lower shelf for supporting the plant balls wherein each cavity has an associated through going guiding channel having a star-like configuration located such that the star-shaped configuration is coaxial with the cavity, in which points of the star-shaped configuration extend beyond the outer periphery of the cavity to form through going guiding grooves.
2. Container according to claim 1, wherein the cavity has the shape of a truncated cone.
3. Container according to claim 1, wherein that the cavity is round.
4. Container according to claim 1 or 2, the cavity is polygonal.
5. Container according to claim 1 wherein the flat body can be parted into strips by means of breaking grooves, in which every strip comprises at least one array of cavities.
6. Container according to claim 5, wherein (stet) of the strips comprises at its lower side a guiding groove.
7. Container according to claim 1 wherein each of the cavities comprises an extra aperture at its lower side.
The present invention relates to the field of gripping apparatus for plants and relates in particular to an apparatus for removing a ball comprising a plant from a cavity, open at its upper side, and provided in a container.
Such apparatus are generally known.
Such known apparatuses generally have the disadvantage, that as a consequence of a too large pushing force, which is required to remove the ball from the container, the ball is pulverised or the plant is damaged. It also may happen that it is not possible to grip the ball of the plant effectively without damaging the leaves or the flowers of the plant because the plant is approached from above. Of course, such damage is undesired.
The aim of the present invention is to provide an apparatus in which it is avoided that neither the plant nor the ball is damaged, and wherein the ball is gripped in a sure way, and wherein the position of the ball is reproducable.
This aim is reached in that the container comprises a substantially vertical guiding channel of which the axis is substantially identical with the axis of the cavity,
that a pushing element has been provided, which is movable through the guiding channel; and
that a gripping apparatus has been provided, comprising at least three gripping organs, which are able to grip the ball above the upper side of the container.
It is also the aim of the invention to provide a container, which can be used adventageously with the apparatus according to the present invention. As a consequence of these measures it is possible to push the ball from the cavity from underneath, so that at least a part of the ball is released for gripping by the gripping organs. When the gripping organs have gripped the ball, this can further be conveyed by the gripping organs and be treated further. Whereas the ball of the plant is pushed upward to some extent, it becomes easy for the gripping organs to grip the plant at its ball, so that the danger of damaging of the plant by gripping the plant or by gripping the ball from above is avoided as much as possible.
Subsequently the present invention will be elucidated with the help of embodiments shown in the drawings, wherein:
FIG. 1: depicts a schematic perspective view, partly broken away, of a first embodiment of an embodiment according to the present invention;
FIG. 2: depicts a schematic perspective view of a variation of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, in which the apparatus is in another position:

FIG. 8: a top view of a third embodiment of a cavity in a tray; and
FIG. 8a: a cross-sectional view of the cavity according to FIG. 7 along the line VIIIa--VIIIa.
In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 the ball 2 comprising a plant 1 has been provided in a strip-shaped container 3. The upper side of this container 3 comprises an array of substantially cylindrical cavities 4, while the lower side of the strip-shaped container comprises a groove 5 extending in the longitudinal direction of the container. Concentric with each of the cylindrical cavities 4 a cross- of star-shaped through aperture has been provided, which, as a consequence of the presence of the cavities 4 and of the grooves 5 is shown in the drawing in the shape of four grooves 6 extending radially from the cavities 4. These grooves extend over the full height of the strip-shaped container 3, including the groove 5.
In addition, a number of the strip-shaped containers 3 has been composed to a so-called tray 8 by means of connection strips 7. This facillitates the handling of such strips. Normally, the cavities 4 of the strip-shaped containers are filled with growing material and subsequently are provided with a seed, which actions are executed with apparatuses known per se, after which trays 8 comprising such strips are located in a propagator, after which the plants will germinate. As a consequence thereof, in most of the cavities 4 a ball 2 with a plant 1 will be present.
For removing the ball 2 with the plant 1 from the container, use is made inter alia of a pushing organ 9, which comprises a vertical rod 10, driven in vertical direction by means of a lineair driving apparatus not depicted in the drawing, on which vertical rod 10 four radially extending levers 11 have been provided, while on each of the ends of the levers 11 an elongation 12 extending upwardly has been provided. Preferably, the elongations 12 are beveled at their inner sides to facillitate the gripping of the balls 2. Of course it is also possible to bevel the outer side of the alengation to some extent, so that the entering into the guiding grooves 6 is facillitated.
Above the pushing organ 9, a gripping apparatus 13 has been provided, which is located exactly above the pushing organ 9 and which is movable both in the horizontal and in the vertical direction for conveying the ball 2 with the plant 1 provided therein. The gripping apparatus 13 has been mounted to a hollow rod 14, being movable in substantially the vertical direction, at the lower side of which a bearing plate 15 has been provided. This bearing plate 15 comprises four notches distributed regularly over the incumference, in which notches substantially tangentially extending shafts 17 have been provided. A gripping lever 18 has been mounted around each of the shafts 17.
Each of the gripping levers 18 extends from the shaft 17 initially downwards but also inwards to some extend. Subsequently, the gripping lever extends substantially in radial direction outwardly, while after which a curve of about 180� is described, so that at the end of the curve, the lever stretches inwardly. The last part of the gripping lever 18 stretches downwardly and forms the gripping part 19 of the gripping lever 18.
An inner rod 20 extends through the hollow rod 14, at the lower side of which a guiding plate 21 has been provided. The guiding plate 21 comprises four apertures 22 through each of which the gripping lever 18 extends. As a consequence of the shape of the gripping levers 18, the movement in vertical direction of the rod 20 and the movement of the guiding plate 21 as a consequence thereof, will cause the gripping levers 18 to rotate around the shafts 17. As a consequence thereof the gripping part 19 of each of the gripping levers 18 will move in radial direction inwardly or outwardly, so that a ball 2 can be gripped and can be released. The curve of each of the gripping levers 18 has been provided for leave space to the leaves, flowers and stems of the plants.
Subsequently the working of the embodiment shown in this figure will be described. The tray 8 comprising strips 3 positioned such above a pushing organ 9 that a cavity 4 is exactly above the pushing organ 9. Then the driving apparatus will move the rod 10 with the levers 11 and elongations 12 thereof upwardly, so that these will move through the guiding grooves 6 provided in the strip-shaped container 3, so that the ball 2 is engaged at its lower side body arms 11 and at its side by the elongations 12 and is moved upwardly. Herein the ball 2 and the plant 1 provided therein is released from the cavity 4 until it is above the upper side of the stripshaped container 3.
The gripping apparatus 13 also positioned just above the pushing organ will be lowered by a driving apparatus not depicted in the drawings, after which the gripping parts 19 of the gripping levers 18 are on the level of the ball 2. Also the guiding plate 21 has been located in its lowest position, so that the gripping parts 19 are in their outer position. By moving the rod 20 upwardly and away from the guiding plate 21, the upper parts of the gripping levers 18 are drawn inwardly, so that also the gripping parts of the gripping levers 18 are drawn inwardly and these are gripping the ball 2. Care has to be taken that the gripping parts 19 grip between the elongations 12 Subsequently the whole gripping apparatus 13 is moved upwardly and thus the plant can be transported to another position, for instance to a planting machine or to an apparatus for locating the ball and the plant in a bigger container. The pushing organ can be moved downwardly, after which the container can be relocated over one position and the next ball can be gripped.
The position in which the ball has been moved until above the pushing organ by the gripping apparatus 13 is depicted in FIG. 2. The embodiment shown in FIG. 2 deviates from the embodiment depicted in FIG. 1 in that the pushing organ has been constructed differently.
This pushing organ is depicted in more detail in FIG. 3A and 3B. The embodiment shown in FIG. 3A and 3B of the pushing organ comprises again a hollow rod 23, movable in the vertical direction, which is split at its upper side into four gripping levers 24. Just as in the case of the gripping apparatus 13, the gripping levers 24 extend initially in subsequently vertical direction, but also somewhat in radial direction inwardly, in which each of the gripping arms comprises a vertical part, a horizontal part, directed radially outwardly, and the vertical part which is meant to grip the ball. Within the hollow rod 23 an inner rod 26 extends, which comprises at its upper side a cross 27, as shown in FIG. 3B, which is surrounded by a ring 28. On top of the cross 27 a conical element 29 has been located.
By moving the rod 26 in vertical direction relative to the rod 24, the gripping parts 25 of the gripping arms can be relocated in a radial direction, so that the pushing element according to this embodiment also has a gripping function, which can be important in the case of some plants.
To offer room for the thickness of the gripping arms 24, guiding grooves provided in the strip-shaped containers 3 comprises thickenings 30.
In the embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 4, each of the cavities 4 provided in the strip-shaped container 3 comprises only three guiding grooves 6. Consequently it is necessary that the pushing organ 9 comprises three rods 10 comprising an elongation 12 at every end. Further this embodiment corresponds to the embodiment described in FIG. 1.
The gripping apparatus deviates, however, substantially; the gripping apparatus has been mounted on a supporting element 31 which is movable over two rods 32. For driving this, a driving rod 33 has been provided, which is depicted only partially. Under the bearing element a vertical rod 34 has been provided, which is movable in the vertical direction by means of a linear driving organ 35.
At the under side of the rod 34 a plate 36 has been mounted, to which three rods 37 extending partially in the vertical direction downwardly and partially radially outwardly have been mounted. At the end of each of the rods 27 a U-shaped rod 38 has been provided, having legs which extend downwardly in the vertical direction. Each of said rods 38 is connected with a ring 39. At the lower side of each pair of legs of the rod 38, a shaft 55 has been mounted, around which rod 40 is movable. At the inner end of each of the rods 40 a gripping plate 41 has been provided, while at the other end of the rod 40 one end of the linear driving organ 42 has been provided. This linear driving organ can take the shape of a hydraulic or a pneumatic cylinder or a linear electromotor.
Subsequently the working of the present embodiment will be described. The working of the pushing organ 9 is therein equal to that of the pushing organ 9 described in FIG. 1. The supporting element 31 is positioned such that the shaft 34 is precisely above the cavity 4. Herein the linear driving organs 42 have been pulled inwardly, so that the gripping plates 41 are in their outer position. Herein the vertical rod 34 is moved downwardly until the gripping plates 41 are at the level of the ball 2. Thereafter the linear driving organs will stretch, so that the gripping plates 41 will be moved inwardly and upwardly. To compensate this movement, the linear driving organ 35 will move the vertical rod 34 such in downward direction, that this vertical component of movement is eliminated and the gripping plates 41 are moved in substantial horizontal direction. This movement is continued until the ball has been gripped. Subsequently the pushing organ can be moved downwardly, while the ball 2 with the plant 1 located therein can be transported to another position, for instance the position 43 depicted with dashed lines.
FIG. 5 shows a application of the apparatus according to the present invention. In this application use is made of a supply apparatus 44 for supplying strip-shaped containers 3 in the shape of trays, and in the cavities 4 whereof plants 1 have been provided. To further process these trays 8, they are separated by a saw apparatus 45, so that separate strip-shaped containers 3 are developed. These are moved in a direction extending perpendicular to the original direction of supply by means of a transporting organ 46, after which they are subsequently step-wise drawn through a second pushing apparatus 47, wherein plants 1 located in the cavities 4 of the relevant strip-shaped container are examined.
Such an examination apparatus can be composed by a light source 49 located at one side of the path to be travelled over by the plants and a light sensitive element located at the other side of the relevant path. This examination apparatus 48 determines whether a plant 1 is present in the cavity concerned, and when this is the case, whether the size of the plant is sufficient. When the plant 1 does not need the requirements, the relevant ball and the plant 1 present therein is removed from the relevant cavity by means of a removal apparatus 51, after which a plant 1 from another strip-shaped container 3 is supplied by means of an apparatus depicted only schematically.
Consequently all cavities 4 of the relevant stripshaped container are completely filled with healthy plants. To have a healthy plant available always a second examination organ 48 has been provided, which examines plants located in the other strip-shaped container. When all healthy plants have been removed from this second container a next container is supplied by the transport apparatus, so that also the examination organ 48 has a sufficient supply of healthy plants.
The apparatus according to the present invention can also be used with a planting machine or in a machine for locating the plants in bigger containers.
Subsequently some embodiments of trays will be described, which are depicted in FIG. 6-8.
FIG. 6 shows a part of a tray which can be applied with the apparatus according to the present invention. The tray 8 comprises cavities 4 provided according to a regular patern. Each of the cavities comprises, as is shown clearly in FIG. 6, a conical part 54, which has a bottom at its lower side. The slight conicity of this conical part 54 serves to facillitate the production of the tray. By this conicity the trays can be released easily from the mould. Of course, the ball present in the cavity can easily be pushed upwards. The conicity is, however, not essential for the invention.
Further, central with the conical cavity 54 a cross-shaped guiding channel 6 has been provided which extends until the underside of the tray 8. By having the cross-shaped guiding channel 6 and the cavity 54 coincide the underside of the bottom 54 is separated until four pieces 55 which each have the shape of a circle-segment. Consequently the bottom of the aperture 54 is not continuous.
This has the advantage that the roots of a plant being present in the ball tend to grow according to a circular movement along the bottom of the container, in this case the bottom of the conical cavity. Generally this circular growing is not desired, as a kind of programming of the roots takes place. When the ball with the plant is planted in a bigger container or in the soil, the roots will tend to continue the circular movement and will grow according to a circle, so that the roots will extend only outside the original ball to a small extend and the original ball is separated within the bigger container or in the soil. Of course this is not desired as the ability to obtain water and nutrition from the surrounding soil is limited considerably and the plant may become loose in the ground.
As the bottom of the container has been divided into pieces, so that the round going tendation of the roots is broken off and the roots will grow downwardly, guided by the guiding channel 6.
The previous consideration is valid for the conical sides of the cavity 54 so that these conical sides are broken up by guiding grooves 6 and the tending to grow around is eliminated.
In the embodiment shown in FIG. 7 a hexagonal cavity 56 is shown in which a guiding channel 57 has been provided in the shape of a three-pointed star, so that every second side of the hexagonal cavity 56 comprises a guiding groove. The cavity 56 is again conical to ease the release of the tray 8. Further a three-pointed star configuration of the guiding channel 57 makes this tray fit for a gripping element 11 comprising three elongations. A cross-section of the cavity is shown in FIG. 7a. Also in this case, both the bottom and the sides are broken to eliminate the circular growing of the roots.
Further the embodiment shown in FIG. 7 deviates in that in the bottom an extra aperture 59 has been provided which connects the cavity with the underside. In FIG. 7 this extra opening is round, thus it can accommodate every shape and it does not have to be equal to the shape of the relevant cavity.
Finally FIG. 8 shows a next embodiment in which the cavity 58 is square and in which a cross-shaped guiding channel 6 has been provided. Instead of round, hexagonal or square cavities with other shapes can be applied, such as polygonal ones or oval ones.

Composite aircraft industry takes off around Bend
|| Print |
|Friday, February 01, 2008
Desire for smaller, faster, cheaper planes fuels a growing composite aircraft industry centered in the Bend area.
By Kathleen Newton
But that's changing as several new aircraft makers have come to Oregon in recent years, bringing with them experience with advanced-composite technologies. Now that experience is placing them directly in the path of industry growth.
A composite-aircraft manufacturing cluster has blossomed in Bend, and others are emerging in Scappoose and the Columbia Gorge, evidence of a boom in Oregon's $1.6 billion aerospace sector. Although state employment officials estimate industry jobs at fewer than 3,000, experts say that figure doesn't reflect the full impact of parts makers and service companies in areas from Portland to Salem, Astoria, Albany, Scappoose and Clackamas. Many are reporting banner sales. (See sidebar, page 24.)
OREGON'S NASCENT AVIATION sector until recently was largely unknown and focused primarily on build-it-yourself experimental kit aircraft.
Things began to change around 1990, when Lance Neibauer, a California entrepreneur who manufactured high-performance, kit-built experimental aircraft made from advanced composites, let it be known he was looking for an affordable plant site. Neibauer, who now lives in the Bend area, recalls that officials from Redmond pestered him for months, eventually winning him over.
BUT WHILE EPIC WAS SOARING, Columbia Aircraft across the street was facing cash-flow problems. This past fall, the company filed for bankruptcy protection after a series of problems that included poor cost containment, inadequate productivity and a hailstorm that damaged dozens of planes. Several potential buyers, including composite aircraft maker Cirrus, jockeyed to buy the assets. Cessna was the ultimate winner.
According to Oliver, there are no plans to move the plant — now adorned with a Cessna sign — out of Oregon. Its 400 employees will be retained, and more may be added. Oliver says the goal is to increase production from its current level of one plane a week to 200 or 250 a year, for potential sales of $100 million or more annually.
Dave Dennis, CEO of Oregon Aero in Scappoose, says he is preparing for a huge spike in his composite aircraft parts business in light of the Cessna deal. Oregon Aero provides certified seats for Cessna planes.
DESPITE ITS RECENT GROWTH, Oregon's aerospace sector is not without its potential perils.
According to Joseph C. Bartels, the new owner of Lancair, which does about $15 million a year building airplane kits at its Redmond plant, further expansion of Bend's aircraft manufacturing cluster could be hampered by rising land and development costs.

Natashia S. King-Tyes Debuts with 'Bloodlines'
Antioch, CA
Half of all American children will witness the breakup of their parents' marriage, reports "The Life Course of Children of Divorce," a study published in the American Sociological Review. Beyond the statistics are stories of children who must cope with the pain of losing the family they once knew. One such story is told in Natashia S. King-Tyes' stunning literary debut, "Bloodline: One Drop Rules the World" (published by Xlibris).
This novel is the first book in a series that follows the Denson sisters on a journey to find identity, love, and family in the wake of their parents' separation. The sisters find their resolve and relationship tested as they face abandonment, abuse, and racial prejudice.
"Many people in today's society (might) pretend the issues I raise in this book have disappeared, but they haven't," King Tyes says. "This book will bring awareness to the issues I raise. I offer readers the ultimate solution through one of the characters in my storyline."
Heralding the arrival of a gifted new voice, "Bloodline" is a redemptive tale that examines some of today's most topical matters, including the breakdown of the family and racial discrimination, in light of the experiences of its richly drawn characters. Above all, it is an unforgettable story of the bonds of sisterhood, the grace of forgiveness, and the transformative, healing power of love.

Today's guest and I both grew up in the booming metropolis of Columbus, Ohio, yet really didn't cross paths until we started hangin' in social media. Recently we were on a podcast together and the host of the show basically dropped off and let us banter back and forth. That got me thinking: I should have Maria Ross on the Marketing Lifestyle Show. And so today, I have the pleasure of chatting with one of the top branding strategists and author of "Branding Basics for Small Business," (the second edition includes a case study of me!) And by the way, she loves me so much that she has not one, but two special offers for my awesome listeners.

At the finish line, athletes were greeted with a dance party complete with a DJ, go go dancers, and lots of bass. The rainy race took place at Bolin Memorial Park on Saturday, November 23, 2013.

BEIRUT — Angry crowds blocked United Nations observers from reaching an embattled rebel-held town in Syria on Tuesday, hurling stones and metal rods at the monitors' vehicles. Their vehicles came under fire as they drove away from Haffa, but the source of the gunfire was not clear, the U.N. said.
None of the observers was injured.
The situation in Haffa has raised alarm over the past eight days, and there are concerns civilians are stuck in the area while the regime and rebel fighters battle for control. Washington said Monday that regime forces may be preparing a massacre in rebel-held Haffa — a village about 20 miles (30 kilometers) from Assad's hometown of Kardaha.
It's not clear why the crowd wanted to prevent the observers from entering, but the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said earlier that resident of a nearby village was trying to block the observers.
Citing a network of sources on the ground, the Observatory said the residents were mostly regime loyalists.
Calls to the area did not go through Tuesday. The government restricts journalists from moving freely, making it nearly impossible to independently verify accounts from either side.
Also Tuesday, Syrian forces pelted the eastern city of Deir el-Zour with mortars as anti-government protesters were dispersing before dawn Tuesday, killing at least 10 people, activists said.
The offensives were part of an escalation of violence in recent weeks that has brought more international pressure on President Bashar Assad's regime faces over its brutal tactics against the opposition. The U.N. accused the government of using children as human shields in a new report. It said children have been victims of detention, torture and sexual violence.
Amateur video of the mortar attack on Deir el-Zour showed some of the dead in a street as survivors screamed in panic and tried to remove their bodies. Other videos showed some of the wounded receiving treatment at a hospital. The Local Coordination Committees activist group and the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said 10 people died in the shelling.
Both sides of the 15-month-old revolt to oust Assad have ignored an internationally brokered cease-fire that was supposed to go into effect April 12 but never took hold. The U.S. and its allies also have shown little appetite for getting involved in another Arab nation in turmoil.
Syria is veering ever closer to an all-out civil war as the conflict turns increasingly militarized. Already more than 13,000 have died since March 2011, according to activist groups.
The U.N. special envoy for Syria Kofi Annan has asked governments with influence to "twist arms" to halt the escalating violence in the country, his spokesman Ahmad Fawzi said. Annan is also working to convene a diplomatic meeting soon to discuss the situation in Syria amid worsening fighting between government troops and opposition forces. Earlier this year, he put forward a six-point peace plan, including the cease-fire, to try end the violence.
"It is totally unacceptable and it must stop, and that is why Annan has invited governments with influence to raise the bar to another level, to the highest level possible, and twist arms if necessary, to get the parties to implement the plan," Fawzi told reporters in Geneva. He didn't specify the countries that might be able to pressure Assad into halting its onslaught against the opposition, but Russia, China and Iran are considered Syria's closest and strongest allies.
The two main activist groups reported clashes in areas including the central province of Homs, the northern regions of Idlib and Aleppo and areas around the capital Damascus and the southern province of Daraa.
The Observatory said troops kept up an offensive in an eastern coastal region where the U.S. says Assad's forces may be preparing a massacre. The group said regime forces shelled Haffa and neighboring villages in Latakia province Tuesday for the eighth straight day, it said, as regime forces try to push through against stiff resistance. Activists say the government has brought in helicopter gunships to aid their offensive, an increasingly common practice.

Wow, been trying to figure out if you were still a part of SuicideGirls! I've been a huge fan since I first heard of this undertaking back when I was fresh out of boot camp in the Army around December 2000 or early 2001. Rumors were flying around for a year or two about these new pin up girls, then I remember seeing a special on cable featuring you and the SuicideGirls I believe around 2003 or so! Been hooked since :) just don't know why I've waited this long to join the community! Excuse my rambling, a bit star struck!

text: In regards to Japan, unless someone here is a certified SAR team member and has been dispatched to aid in person in Japan, then there is very little that anyone here can do except donate money and physical goods. Good chance that many of us already have if we are able to. Discussion of things DCA related in no way takes away from my concern for, prayers for, donations to, worry about, watching of news related to the recent tragedy in Japan. If you are so worried that discussing the alignment of building vs. railings is detrimental to the recovery of Japan, why are you here discussing how detrimental it is to the recovery of Japan? See the disconnect? In haranguing others about it, you become what you are haranguing. So let's just cut it. There is not a single person here who is not as concerned and saddened as a human being can be for the suffering and loss of life that is ongoing. I've made a donation to the Red Cross and that will help someone out. But not talking about DCA details will make no difference one way or another, nor will staring at the news feeds all day.

The Meaning of Mentoring: We're Never Too Old -- or Young -- to Learn
The roots of the word mentor trace back to the Greek Odyssey. Mentor was the teacher in whose care Odysseus left his son, Telemachus, when he set out on his voyages. Mentor was actually the goddess Athena, in the guise of a mortal man. In its original meaning, a mentor is a teacher.
My first mentor was my father. All parents are teachers, every day of our lives, in the way we conduct ourselves. Later, when I became a filmmaker, Francis Ford Coppola became my mentor and taught me how to write screenplays and how to work with actors. At the time, I had been more of a cameraman and editor, more interested in the technical side of filmmaking. My later mentor was Joseph Campbell, who asked cosmic questions and further exposed me to the mysteries of life.
Mentors help novices learn by doing -- applying theory in practice -- and also inspire them, keeping them motivated to persevere. I've featured such relationships between mentors and apprentices in my Star Wars films. I hope more teachers can benefit from mentoring -- especially during those crucial early years of teaching -- and in turn, mentor others.

Truly a mentor can be of any age and we can also learn at any age as well. A mentor is an exemplary that sets a velocity for others to follow. A teacher should be mentoring by showing, doing and encouraging others. Mr. Lucas, your article is very fantastic. It is a fact. Thanks

With Nintendo announcing that the 8GB white Wii U basic bundle is being discontinued, it seems like many retailers are jumping the gun by also putting the White Wii U Pro Controller on sale. Best Buy is currently having a sale on the White Pro Controller for $24.99, which is half off the retail price of $49.99. These prices seem to only be reflected in stores, as Best Buy's website only has the controllers listed for $34.99 currently.
If you're eager to get your hands on another Pro Controller, you might want to check your local Best Buy for this deal. If they are preparing to liquidate stock it seems rushed, as I doubt Nintendo won't have a 32GB white bundle in the near future for people who prefer matching consoles and controllers.

Research cooperation between the European Union and India dates back all the way to the First Framework Programme in the mid-1980s. It was formalised into an EU-India Science and Technology Cooperation Agreement, signed first in 2001 and renewed in 2004 (and due for further renewal at the end of this year). As the Indian government itself stated, commenting on the 2004 "EU-India Strategic Partnership", science and technology cooperation is the most promising area for EU-India cooperation.
The first EU-India steering committee for research cooperation in 2004 identified five research themes as priorities for cooperation: information and communications technologies, surface transport, nanotechnology and multifunctional materials, health, and climate change and natural disasters. Over 20 projects were funded through the FP6 in the period 2003-06 that involved Indian partners or were focused on India.
EU-India environmental research collaboration has been growing, especially since FP6. In 2004 environmental researchers from Europe and India participated in a "climate change and natural disasters" workshop, a chance to gain knowledge of each others' research and to make concrete plans for international collaboration. As a result, five EU-India research projects fell within the "Sustainable development, global change and ecosystems" research area, while a further five FP6 international cooperation activities projects had sustainable development themes.
The focus on climate change and environmental risk is a natural choice for EU-India research cooperation. India has well-developed climate change research capacities, and specific research interests include the tropical monsoon cycle, the effects of global warming on the Himalayan climate, air pollution, and climate change impacts on agriculture. There are state of the art research facilities and scientists in academic centres like the University of Delhi, the Indian Institute of Technology, the Indian Met Office and the Institute of Tropical Metereology in Pune, Maharashtra.
The European interest in greater climate change research collaboration is also obvious. Since climate change is a global phenomenon, there is a pressing need to increase our knowledge of climate systems outside Europe, and in that way to discover the interactions between different climate systems around the world. Greater collaboration also allows more leverage of Indian expertise in the field.
The February workshop was held in New Delhi, India and was organised by the Environment Directorate. It brought together more than 50 scientists with the objective of pinning down future research needs of common interest to both European and Indian scientists. Discussions were centred around three main research themes: climate change and air quality (including such topics as air pollution and monsoon circulation studies); climate change impacts and extreme events (for example, modelling climate change and researching the impact of climate change on agriculture); and finally adaptation and mitigation strategies (for example, the development of clean technologies like clean coal power generation).
The latter theme was developed as a direct response to Indian concerns that the focus on climate change might compromise the high economic growth levels needed to lift the local population out of poverty. The idea is that, through combined research and technology transfer, India can move onto a sustainable growth trajectory that allows high economic growth without prejudicing the local or global environment.
The next stage, following the February workshop and the definition of mutual research priorities, is to build on the momentum to elaborate a specific international cooperation action (SICA) that will be launched during 2008. SICAs aim to ensure a fair level of collaboration between third countries and EU member states and are geared towards the research and development needs of third countries. SICAs, previously part of the International Cooperation programme in FP6, have now been mainstreamed in FP7, meaning that they can be found in each research theme.
Furthermore and in parallel with increased EU-India research collaboration in other fields, European and Indian officials will explore the possibility of implementing a coordinated call for climate change research, the first of its kind between the EU and India. A coordinated call means that the research authorities on either side will coordinate the launch and budgeting of a research project to allow research teams from both sides to collaborate on their work. The coordinated call requires a strengthened institutional relationship between the Research Directorate-General and its homologue in India, the Department of Science and Technology. It will offer the prospect of more brains and more resources working together to tackle the climate change threat common to us all.

Invitation to Wikipedia research by City University HK[edit]
Dear Conquerist,
I am Andreas Schroeder, a Research Fellow at City University in Hong Kong. Here at the University's Center for Applied Knowledge and Innovation Management, we are currently conducting a research project on collaboration activities in Wikipedia. We are inviting experienced Wikipedians worldwide to share their experiences and views on different aspect of the community processes with us. Our aim is to find out how people integrate their contribution efforts to ultimately better understand the mechanisms behind the amazing success of Wikipedia.
Because you are an experienced Wikipedian and a well integrated member of the Wikipedia community, we would like to talk to you about your experiences. We would like to do a short interview during the next two weeks either via Skype, MSN Messenger or telephone at a time that is most convenient for you. The interview should not take longer than 30 minutes and could be conducted in German or English.
We would very much appreciate your participation in this research project. Any information about participants will, of course, be kept strictly confidential. For further questions about the project and to arrange a date for an interview, please contact Andreas Schroeder at WikiResearchCityU{at}gmail.com or send me an email.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Kind regards,
Andreas Schroeder, PhD

Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art[edit]
First off, I apologize for the spam. You are receiving this message because you have indicated that you are in Southern California or interested in Southern California topics (either via category or WikiProject).
I would like to invite you to the Los Angeles edition of Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art, a photography scavenger hunt to be held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) on Saturday, February 28, 2009, from 1:00 to 7:00 PM. All photos are intended for use in Wikipedia articles or on Wikimedia Commons. There will be a prize available for the person who gets the most photos on the list.
If you don't like art, why not come just to meet your fellow Wikipedians. Apparently, we haven't had a meetup in this area since June 2006!
If you are interested in attending, please add your name to Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art#Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Please make a note if you are traveling to the area (train or plane) and need transportation, which can probably be arranged via carpool, but we need time to coordinate. Lodging is as of right now out of scope, but we could discuss that if enough people are interested.
Thank you and I hope to see you there! howcheng {chat} 23:41, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

May 2014 disambig contest: let's do it again![edit]
Greetings fellow disambiguator! Remember back in February when we made history by clearing the board for the first time ever, for the monthly disambiguation contest? Let's do it again in May! I personally will be aiming to lead the board next month, but for anyone who thinks they can put in a better effort, I will give a $10 Amazon gift card to any editor who scores more disambiguation points in May. Also, I will be setting up a one-day contest later in the month, and will try to set up more prizes and other ways to make this a fun and productive month. Cheers! bd2412 T 18:47, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
You recently added a note to 802.11ac stating "600 Mbit/s is only possible with proprietary extensions to 802.11n that enable 256QAM in the 2.4 GHz band." This does not appear to be consistent with 802.11n which appears to indicate 600Mbps is achievable with 64-QAM using four spatial streams. --Pascal666 16:25, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
- What you're saying is correct. I had forgotten that 802.11n allows up to four spatial streams. All commercial "AC1900" and "AC2350" devices that I am aware of use a 3-stream 802.11ac chipset (e.g. BCM4360) for the 2.4 GHz band, but who knows what the future will bring, especially now that products based on 4-stream 802.11ac chipsets are starting to become available. I'll revise the note. Thanks for bringing it up! Conquerist (talk) 16:42, 8 September 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited G.fast, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page EPON (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Talk:The Kinks discography
|This article is of interest to the following WikiProjects:
Kinks Kinkdom[edit]
Can I suggest that Kinks Kinkdom could probably be taken off the studio albums list, as it was an American reissue of Kinda Kinks with an altered track list and few extra singles. We could maybe add it to the page for Kinda Kinks as an American release, as is the case with the first album being released as You Really Got Me in the states. Any thoughts? Tangerine 03 12:26, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
- Sounds good. Go ahead. Maybe there's a way ot list the alternate title in the discography here, though. -Freekee 01:26, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
- I'll give it one week, if noones objected by then i'll do it. Tangerine 03 02:48, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
- No, if Kinks Kinkdom is a US release of Kinda Kinks, then it *definitely* needs to be removed from the main discography and added to the article on that album. The US title can be added to the original release, as a note underneath, just like is shown in box #1. The article for Kinda Kinks is lacking. It needs the the info regarding the US release, at the very least. Then, it might be nice to have a redirect page set up for Kinks Kinkdom. I'd make the changes, but I really don't know this info myself, and it was your idea anyway. Let me know if you need any help. :-) -Freekee 03:50, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
- Done! (yay) Tangerine 03 05:21, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
Um... I checked your changes to the Kinda Kinks article, and I notice that not a single track matches up with the Kinks Kinkdom release. Could you please explain why you think this is the US version of the same album? -Freekee 16:20, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
Okay, I've reverted Tangerine 03's changes. I can find no evidence that Kinks Kinkdom is a US version of Kinda Kinks. If anyone has evidence to the contrary, please present it. -Freekee 03:25, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
Removed redlinks[edit]
User 126.96.36.199 changed all 79 records on the "Compilation albums" list to links. I like the previous six changes he made to the page, but this one seems excessive. There seems to be a small consensus in Wikiland to not create too many dead links in one section. I've seen a recommendation of no more than 10% red. The Compilations list has the added problem that the compilations are not very significant, in a historical sense. Also, one user put it, if that many links are red, you need to ask if the list is necessary in the first place (though I'm not going to argue for its removal). An additional problem was that of the ten blue links (out of 79) in the list, all ten were linking to the wrong pages. For example, Lola linked to the racing team, and The Ultimate Collection linked to a disambiguation page, where the Kinks record wasn't even listed.
If anyone has any issues with unlinking that list, please bring it up here for discussion. Freekee 05:44, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
I totally agree with you. I will note that once all of the albums gets significant info and have a proper cover (I will do it today or these couple of days for a few albums) I will make a gallery for all of the studio albums. Painbearer 10:32, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
Chart Positions and Album Sales[edit]
Could someone post the chart positions and album sales? I've been wanting to know that info, thanks.
Removed cleanup tag[edit]
I removed the cleanup tag as the original complaint was that the article was not in keeping with WP:MUSTARD. Since the requestor did not elaborate, I can only assume that the problem is that this discography uses an image gallery and this is not considered by WP:MUSTARD to be fair use. Other than that, the only problems I can see with the article are that album titles need to be italicized every time (not just sometimes) and there is some unnecessary bolding of song titles. Minor stuff. As for the fair use issue, there seems to be some controversy over that. That can certainly be debated on this page or elsewhere, but I don't think that necessitates sticking a cleanup tag on the article. Hence, I have removed it. --GentlemanGhost 08:41, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
I'm confused. Why is Percy not in the discography list on The Kinks page, nor in this discography? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dirtypants (talk • contribs) 11:25, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
Reprise compilation not listed in discography???[edit]
This is my first contribution to Wikipedia, so bear with me...
While digitizing my few remaining LPs I have come across a Kinks album that doesn't appear in the discography (as far as I can tell).
It's a Reprise label compilation that basically covers the Pete Quaife years (1964-1969). The title of the compilation is:
"Then Now and Inbetween" (Reprise label# PRO 328)
I haven't listened to it yet, but some of the tracks appear to be edited down (David Watts is listed on the back cover with a run time of 1:52 which is about 30 seconds shorter than the studio version on "Something Else.."). In fact, there are a whopping 10 tracks on the 2nd side alone...
As is the case with most of the old Kinks vinyl from that era, there is no listing whatsoever of a date of production on the label or the LP cover.
If anyone wants to add this to the discography, I'll be glad to provide the track listing and any other info...
