THE CHRIS MATTHEWS SHOW To Mark 10th Anniversary
THE Chris Matthews SHOW, a production of NBC News, marks its tenth anniversary with this weekend's program. The topics this weekend include:
-Why Conservatives are Panicked that a Romney Loss Would Ruin the Brand
-Great Political Moments of the Past 10 Years
Among the panelists this week are Bob Woodward of The Washington Post, Joe Klein of TIME, Kelly O'Donnell of NBC News, and Katty Kay of BBC WORLD NEWS AMERICA.
THE Chris Matthews SHOW debuted in September 2002, when the big story was the run-up to the invasion of Iraq. In the succeeding ten years, the program has provided weekend analysis of each week's developments, from that war, through the Bush 2004 reelection campaign against John Kerry, the Hillary Clinton-Barack Obama race, the 2008 Obama election, and the first Obama term. The weekly roundtable of reporters, editors and columnists has brought viewers inside events as they are covered by the country's foremost news organizations, including TIME, The New York Times, Newsweek, The Washington Post, New York Magazine, as well as online news organizations like The Huffington Post and The Daily Beast.
"Our panelists open their notebooks and give us the stuff that they couldn't get into their pieces that week, and the benefit of their analysis. The crosstalk among our group of regulars and first-timers always gives value-added to our loyal viewers, whom we have been privileged to serve for these ten years," said Mr. Matthews. "I've always said we're like a lively brunch – friends get together to toss around what they know and what they think. Everybody learns and everybody goes home with takeaway. I always learn from those men and women who are out there covering the front page stories."
On its anniversary show this weekend, viewers will see a novel Top Ten list – Top Ten Political In-Your-Face Moments of the Past Ten Years:
From the annals of the Bush administration, a unique moment:
1. Vice President Cheney's notorious in-your-face errant shot that hit his hunting friend.
From the 2004 Presidential Campaign:
2. Senator Zell Miller telling Chris Matthews that he wished he could challenge him to a duel.
From the Iraq War, two moments of confrontation that many will recall:
3. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, asked by a soldier in Iraq about up-armoring vehicles, telling the soldier that you go to war with the army you have.
4. President George W. Bush ducking when a shoe was thrown by an Iraqi journalist.
From the 2008 campaign, two indelible showdown moments:
5. Barack Obama's faceoff with Senator Hillary Clinton in the New Hampshire Primary in 2008, when he called her "likable enough."
6. Vice Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin's interview with CBS anchor Katie Couric in 2008.
From the opposition to President Obama:
7. Congressman Joe Wilson yelling "You Lie!" during a speech to a Joint Session of Congress in 2009.
8. Glenn Beck calling President Obama a racist.
9. And a redeeming one: Presidential Candidate Sen. John McCain facing off with a supporter who was decrying Barack Obama untrustworthy and an Arab; Senator McCain told the woman: "No, Ma'am, he's a decent family man."
In the program last weekend, viewers were invited to weigh in on the show's website with their own nominations for this Top Ten list. The winning nomination was from Jorge Rincon of Fresno, California:
10. Stephen Colbert ripping President George W. Bush to his face at the White House Correspondents Association Dinner in April, 2006.

Re: Revisiting the films...
Good filmmaking can get around that. Look at RED OCTOBER. You're at the end of Act 2 and the subs are kind of 'talking' ... and then you have a title on screen saying something like '20 hours later, the laurentian abyss' and you go right on with things.
If you did that wrong, it would be a dead stop for the movie, but they handled it properly. Then again, that was McTiernan on a very good stretch of days (which he has not enjoyed thus far this century.)

**Again, some words have been changed
Proceed to Tuesday, November 6th, 2012. What is the most significant event that occurs in the United States on that day?
The Tnediserp's going to be traveling. He's not gonna uh-- he's not going to be on the plane on that day. He'll be near the plane.
Why is he traveling?
I see like ah...a close-up of -- looks like hands. A close-up of hands holding... bat boomerangs. L-Like batman's boomerangs?
What else do you see?
Ball bearings? And then... looks like a like the... looking down at the individual cells in the hive? And then...
What material is that made out of?
Looked like a schematic? A blueprint? Something that has lots of those container type shapes -- they're not separate -- they're actually -they actually are touching each other like a beehive. so It's a schematic for something.
How is that related to the Tnediserp?
A new technology. He... he's taking credit for it. (mumble) Discovery ... Everybody knows he's a liar. He didn't invent that. He's just saying he did.
Everyone knows he's a liar? or just some people know he's a liar?
Everyone around my point of view.
What is the most newsworthy event that occurs on November 6th, 2012
Everything feels like its slowing down. Like um. A blue train engine, like it slides sideways on a train track and it falls into -- and it looks like it goes into sand and it's still moving, its going slow...everything is moving slow.
Does this happen in the United states?
It's all over.
Are people injured?
I don't see anybody hurt. I see -- I see people trudging onward despite how much slowness, difficulty to do things... everything is very hard to do.
What are you and I doing on November 6th, 2012?
Fixing a ... ceiling fan? Or looking at a... boat propeller? A ceiling fan, a prop, a boat propeller item? It's not in water.
Are we together?
Yeah. There's a strong smell of old motor oil in this building.
Which building are we in ?
Its whitish yellow in the top 50% , greenish on the bottom 50%. It's like a its either a boat house or a shed. It smells like old oil.
Is anyone with us?
Somebody. There's a guy showing us... he has short, greasy hair ,Whatever we were talking about he said I don't know, I just don't know. He's unsure of whatever it is we're there for.
Why are we there?
(long pause)
We're helping him turn something? Fix something?
Is there anything else?
Not there.
Does that mean that there's something somewhere else?
no I just can't see anything else.

After being traded in December because the Orioles didn't want to spend an estimated $10 million in arbitration on a closer, Jim Johnson returned to Camden Yards on Friday wearing the green and gold of the Oakland Athletics.
"It's a little different. I mean, a lot of memories," said Johnson, who was drafted by the Orioles in 2001, made his big league debut in 2006 and was a key member of the bullpen since 2008. "It's obviously different going into a different clubhouse. It's cool."

Austin Children's MuseumRead MoreThe tale of the Austin Children's Museum begins in 1983, when a band of parents and teachers started setting up educational exhibits and children's activities throughout the city. This "museum without walls" stretched into schools, parks, and malls, delighting children and families with a sense of whimsy and a place where play was rewarded. In the years that followed, the museum shed its nomadic beginnings and found a permanent home inside the pleasant green walls of the Dell Discovery Center. Firmly rooted, its exhibits have entertained and enlightened more than 800,000 youngsters and their parents while earning praise from the writers of Little Austinite. Today, the sprawling 12,500-square-foot facility is a kaleidoscope of color and lights, where whippersnappers play with giant building blocks, cobble recycled materials into crafts, and marvel at golf balls as they soar through loops and shoots. Others explore the miniature Global City, where they take on roles such as veterinarians in the pet clinic, cooks in the diner, or stray raccoons hiding in the grocery store. Throughout the week, a team of educators leads Discovery Time, guiding lads and lasses through kid-friendly science experiments that launch paper helicopters and make slime. The museum also hosts Storytime, where grownups read playful stories aloud to encourage creativity and instill a love of literature in young readers.201 Colorado St.Austin, TX US
The Blanton Museum of ArtRead MoreWhen Archer M. Huntington donated 4,000 acres of land to The University of Texas at Austin, it was no surprise that the husband to renowned sculptor Anna Hyatt Huntington stipulated it be used to support an art museum. Today, Blanton Museum of Art—named Best Museum in the Austin Chronicle's 2013 Best of Austin Readers' Poll—honors Archer's request by providing access to more than 17,000 works and a variety of rotating exhibitions. The museum's collection of prints, paintings, and sculptures comprises more than 4,000 pieces from America and 1,800 from Latin America, and it even includes the Suida-Manning Collection—a group of 230 paintings and 400 drawings by Baroque and Renaissance masters that was much sought after by other museums, according to Frommer's. With these pieces as backdrop, the museum hosts Third Thursday events such as artist talks and Yoga in the Galleries, the latter of which finds instructors twisting sculptures into poses that will be easier on their spines.Martin Luther King at Congress, 200 E MLKAustin, TX US
ART on 5thRead MoreEveryone has a different vision of how their living space should look, which is why ART on 5th fills its three-level, 6,000-square-foot gallery with art to suit all tastes. Works by notable names such as Pablo Picasso, Andy Warhol, and Theodor Seuss Geisel—better known as Dr. Seuss—rub shoulders with rotating collections from some 60 lesser-known artists. In addition to displaying fine paintings, ART on 5th offers custom-framing services, and backs each of its frames with a lifetime guarantee. The store's artisans meticulously choose a flattering frame for each piece from more than 3,000 styles—helping artwork mesh stylistically with its destination, be it a living-room wall or an endless hall of mirrors. They eschew colored, paper mats in favor of neutral-toned, hand-wrapped linen mats, leaving some wiggle room between art and frame and imbuing each piece with richness and depth. Each frame is hung with kevlar, a bulletproof material that prevents damage caused by rusted hanging wires and showboating '80s action-movie stars.3005 South Lamar BoulevardAustin, TX US
Capital of Texas ZooRead MoreMore than 500 animals inhabit the grounds at Capital of Texas Zoo, a haven for wildlife education and a breeding ground for more than 14 endangered species. The zoo's residents include zebras, ringtail lemurs, and a rare white tiger, not to be confused with a ghost tiger. Other appearances from the animal kingdom include peacocks, kangaroos, turtles, and lions. Educational animal shows highlight a specific member of the zoo, such as the Wings show, which stars eurasian eagle owl Hedwig, who has made appearances on Late Show with David Letterman and in the movie Furry Vengeance. The zoo also takes to the road with traveling animal shows that involve a cast of six exotic reptiles, mammals, and birds, which makes appearances at birthday parties, schools, or events. With lessons catered to the age of the audience, the animals teach children to respect other living things and remind adults why they can't keep falcons as pets.376 Jenkins Rd.Cedar Creek, TX US
Austin ZooRead MoreWhen animals need rescue or rehabilitation, the staff from Austin Zoo steps in. So, while visitors might find exotic beasts such as jaguars, capuchin monkeys, and african bullfrogs in this menagerie, they're also likely to find domestic creatures as well, including potbellied pigs and goats. Many of these residents can also be seen while cruising around the 15-acre grounds in a miniature train.10808 Rawhide Trl.Austin, TX US

Nice varied selection for big family celebration with young and "old" adults. "Kids" had happy section of sushi, elders enjoyed their cooked meals. Was surprised to see the fake crabmeat but everything else was fresh and good. Great spicey fish.

Very good food and sushi

Just fantastic atmosphere and a food.

Not the best by any means, but not the most expensive either. Service is attentive and atmosphere is nice. Will go again. In this case faint praise dosen't damn, it's just faint praise.
I was pleasantly surprised with Halu sushi. I had a spicy tuna roll, and Alaskan roll that were excellent. We had a shrimp tempura roll that was good but the tempura was not great. Also had the orange chicken which was excellent. Happy to have some decent sushi in golden again.
Really nice experience at Halu...The servers were attentive and friendly, the sushi fresh, and the homemade ponzu sauce tasty. The sake/plum wine blend they serve was the best! Easily recommend this restaurant.
My wife and I recently dined here and found it a nice local place for Japanese food. They also serve Chinese food. We split the veggie tempura, then my wife had the chicken udon and I had the tempura bento box. All of the food was very good and the service was quite prompt.

Salman Khan disagrees with dad Salim Khan over Zanjeer remake
Salman Khan is someone who has always been vocal in his opinion. It was hence not surprising when he expressed that Zanjeer should be remade, unlike his father Salim Khan who thinks that the 1970's hit should be left as it is. Salim Khan, along with Javed Akhtar had penned the script of Amitabh Bachchan-Jaya Bachchan starrer Zanjeer. While Salim Khan is against the idea of remakes, his son feels otherwise. Speaking to reporters at a press conference, Salman Khan asserted that Zanjeer should be remade as it was an extremely well made film. Salman even took the example of Shahrukh Khan starrer Don 2 and said, "Don was remade twice. First was remake and the second was a sequel of a remake."

California Court of Appeal
In R.S. v. PacifiCare Life and Health Ins. Co., 194 Cal.App.4th 192 (April 12, 2011), the California Court of Appeal, Second District, held that the insureds' California bad faith claims were barred by the full faith and credit clause of the U.S. Constitution because the claims were compulsory counterclaims that should have been asserted in the insurers' prior declaratory relief action in Missouri.
In 2008, the plaintiffs' health insurers sought to rescind their policies in a declaratory judgment action in Missouri. The insureds filed counterclaims for breach of contract, but dismissed them without prejudice after the court issued a preliminary injunction requiring the insurers to resume payment of benefits. The insureds, residents of both California and Missouri, then filed an action in California alleging breach of contract, bad faith and statutory claims.

Jaranan Traditional art lesson braid is difficult when competing with more modern art. Only the love of the artists who make their living with the arts survive and progress is hereditary. Although now almost no one is ever nanggap, the artists still want to lose the arts in their offspring Traditional Java is quite popular. As the name implies, Jaran braid meaning hobbyhorse of bamboo plait. Later goatskin and cowhide also woven to create a lesson braid. In this show the dancers will continue to ride a horse and acts as if the lesson of life braid. Initially all the regular dance and sway like a horse to follow the rhythm of music. After a few moments, the dancers suddenly possessed and starts like a horse possessed. They run, jump, and behave the same with horses. There was a fairly calm, but mostly so wild. They drink lots of water, swallowing a banana leaf, flower, and seeds, like a real horse. Jaran braid usual accompaniment of gamelan players. In addition, there are also gambuh, a kind of figure who has a mystical power that takes the role as the mastermind behind the show and is responsible for the trance. Before the performances began, gambuh and retinue in solemn prayer and held a series of ceremonies. Jaranan in ancient times is to always be sacred. That is always associated with things that are unseen. In addition to the spectacle before Jaranan also be used for official ceremonies associated with ancestral spirits palace. At first the kingdom era Jaranan often displayed in the palace. In the daily practice of the artists Jaranan abangan are people who still adhere to their ancestors. They still use tenpat danyangan or punden as sacred. They still have high trust towards the spirits of his ancestors. They also still carry slametan practices as done by the people first. In kenyataanaya Jaranan artists in Kediri are rough all workers. They are mostly pedicab drivers and carpenters. There are some of them who worked as a seller of snacks that are stretched along the airport road from north to south. In art perkembanganya Jaranan have ups and downs. This is due to social conditions of society that has changed in meaning and float Jaranan. from year to year Jaranan-changing nature of spectacle and guidance into the most interesting is Jaranan as a tool to attract sympathizers and for tourism development. Jaranan in the 1960's become a political tool PKI to sustain its power and interesting period. In the years of Sukarno's policy of Nasakom greatly affect the existence of institutions that exist beneath. Of nationalism, religion and communism, has its own institutions. The group has its own cultural base. Lekra, LKN is lesbumi and arts institutions that exist at lower levels. In that year Jaranan already exist and happen to shelter under the supervision of Lekra. Jaranan at that time was very popular with the public. Dikediri even when it was established several groups Jaranan. Jaranan group is much guarded by people who are in art institutions. Of the three existing art institutions, all have their own art in accordance with their respective mission. In the 60s, each with a healthy group berkontestasi Jaranan. Although they come from different art institutions, but at that time they still could share space and berkontestasi. They mutually support and develop creativity in art. Jaranan at that time still performing with very plain. Pemainya just too big to wear pants and no makeup. There is no boundary between the players, drummers and spectators. They are both located on the ground. They can play an exchange between each other. Unlike the Japanese era who are still using jute as the clothes. In the 60 years can appear vulgar Jaranan wherever he is. In 1965 the event took place cleaning of the clergy to groups abangan. Cleaning is done with the State kerjasamama bag clergy. As a result of cleansing the society abangan in Kediri at that time was topsy-turvy. Especially to people who are struggling in institutions or have been involved PKI. The people who are involved as members of the communist party was killed. The artists who are under the PKI is Lekra exterminated all. Danyangan and some punden many are destroyed. Even the sculptures and statues that are now in the museum Airlangga seen many destroyed. This is due to political disputes, 1965. all properties associated with the tradition of abangan destroyed. Included are Jaranan. After the bloody events of 1965 was the first Jaranan is very dibangggakan arts community lost instantly. Jaranan is a representation of abangan who tried to give her existence in the arts. They really suffered prolonged trauma. So in post-65 arts Jaranan retreat. 65 political conditions have brought about Jaranan kemandekanya point. Unless Jaranan who take shelter under the communist safe from this purge. Jaranan existence at that time still relatively small. Trauma that was not felt by the people who come dar Lekra only. Artists from lesbumi and LKN that time also a bit scared to perform in public. Most of the artists who have dikediri at that time also stopped from art to moreover time. After the bloody events that the whole community for providing a negative identification Jaranan art. from among the clergy. The clerics think that it invites Jaranan devil. So naturally if at that time the clergy particularly Ansor finish off artists that smells of communism in Kediri. Countries that started giving artists by making pengngontrolan Artist Main Number (NIS) in the period of 1965-1967. By providing the NIS, the government can control more artists involved with the communists. For those who do not have their usual NIS given the number active as an artist. "Without this card, the artist should not appear in public spaces" said Mbah tight. Praxis post 65 Jaranan rarely appears in public spaces. Jaranan artists who come from LKN may still be demonstrating kebolehanya in public spaces. For example Jaranan Sopongiro in Bandar and Jaranan Turnojoyo Pakelan. Two Jaranan this could exist and not terberangus in years 65 because they are a group of art which originated from LKN. Stigmatization that was developed by the clergy and the State apparently has meberangus reasoning community. Easter 65 people are indirectly giving to the arts Jaranan negative identification. They still think that art is art that belongs Jaranan PKI. Communities do not want to be labeled red by the government and the clergy as a follower of the PKI. Finally arts Jaranan shunned by society. After the bloody events rtahun 1965, art Jaranan start totally paralyzed. New in 1977 Jaranan begun to pick up again. Sebyuah Jaranan into a new idiom that appears different from previous years. Jaranan in sebeliumnya many affiliated with the communists but in that year began holding Jaranan military to be used as a tool to protect themselves. New Spirit Jaranan braid Samboyo Kediri In order to improve the image of Jaranan in the face of society, artists began to soften Jaranan Jaranan. In the 70s the movement to revitalize Jaranan already pursued. Rarefaction in the area of dance, make-up and musikpun already begun to do. The artists began to modify Jaranan Jaranan of clothing, makeup, and dance and music. In the show Jaranan berebagai Jaranan players must possess a wise, polite and has good high Karama to the public and the responders. Nature must be played by the artists in different times and occasions. In addition to having an affair with a military strategy, Jaranan also has another strategy that is by smoothing tarianya, music, and danadananya and his behavior should be better. Smoothing is done by the artist Jaranan because at the moment monitoring of pewemerintah still very strong. To eliminate the stigma that an artist should do it to keep the arts strategy Jaranan. Then in 1977 after the founding of Samboyo Putro, Jaranan started getting recognition from society and government. Jaranan Samboyo Putro was founded by former Regional Police called pack Samboyo Kediri. With the assurance of the parties is Jaranan police began boldly perched on kediri compete with other arts. Jaranan Samboyo it first get wangsit from Pamenang Joyoboyo. Mr. Samboyo get revelation from Pamenang for establishing Jaranan and menguri original art-uri kediri this. (Tight) Top wangsit derived from that Pamenang Samboyo exert every effort to restore the negative image of the arts community Jaranan. Mr. samboyo began affiliated with the government, religious leaders and communities to support the existence Jaranan in 1977, this is Jaranan kediri.pasca start fully trusted by the community can kediri as art that is free from communism. Before there are performances of all personnel Jaranan Jaranan definitely go to Pamenang advance .. if now only done by the gambuhnya only. This change is more in fear disebabkkan players if a victim Pamenang. Players were afraid kalu someday she break her promise with Pamenang. At the time of its establishment in 1977 Jaranan samboyo Putro, Mr. Samboyo try hard. This effort is intended to mengambalikan Jaranan already bad image of the community advance. One way to pack Samboyo at the time was by means of holding tiban shaman. Inspiration of the shaman tiban he got from Pamenang. (Pardi and Endang) In the heyday Samboyo Putro ever get some brilliant achievement. Several years after the founding of Samboyo, immediately get 1st Place East sejawa Jaranan festivals. Then in perjalananya began in 1977 and 1990 Samboyo Putro never respond as much as 1674 times. Also Samboyo Putro Personnel trained many communities Jaranan to other Jaranan art in Kediri. Until now people believe that Jaranan samboyo Putro it has a huge service to mengambalikan Jaranan image in Kediri. View of the clergy and the State and communities that formerly looked Jaranan as bad art, finally change course. Easter 1977, people began to see that this Jaranan is art that comes from Kediri. The existence of this art should remain preserved its existence. Before samboyo stand Jaranan pakelan is Jaranan who can stand up to exist in Kediri. The players Jaranan average pakelan it first came from LKN. Samboyo disbanded in the 1990s along with the death of the father as head Jaranan Samboyo it. Post Samboyo disbanded, arts Jaranan already started to emerge in nearly all the villages in the town of Kediri have Jaranan respectively. But they also still oriented and have a character like Jaranan Samboyo. (Pardi and Endah) New creations and Kediri Tourism Project In view of the tight Mbah, Movement Jaranan was dancing on the grip and can not be changed. If Jaranan Wijaya Putra it has 24 kinds of motion. Changing Jaranan it played only on equipment alone. If Sanjaya Putra Wijaya Putra and still maintain the existing grip on Jaranan. kepakeman Jaranan will always be maintained by Sanjaya Putra da Wjaya Son. Both these Jaranan Joged now assume that they use it is the legacy of leuhurnya. Existing grip it to the 2 This community should always be used in times of performances. If pakemnya has run out of new display may provide Jaranan already combined. For Samboyo and Wijaya leave the grip was very eliminates instinct Jaranan and insulting the remains of their ancestors. Unlike the case with Jayoboyo Son who prefers to be creative with new models. Jaranan is trying to marry the traditional with the modern art. For example in his songs mixed with samroh or mixed with dangdut. This is done by Joyoboyo Putro to follow market demand. Ranggalawe also have the same paradiga Joyoboyo Putro. He further develop the arts in tarianya modification project. The development of post-1977 Jaranan sliding rapidly. The emergence of these new creations Jaranan not be separated from what the cool crowd or desired by zamanya. Jaranan artists usually prefer to play with Jaranan grip. However, typically groups of artists Jaranan it has 2 versions. The first new version is the version with the collaboration of modern art. If modern is usually coupled with sinden, drums and keyboards. The second is a version Jaranan grip. Arts Jaranan pakemanya using tap kenong, gumbeng gongs, drums and trumpet. For problems tarianya pakemnya later adjusted to each group. For example, Jaranan Wijoyo Putro 24 movements, 24 movements Sanjoyo Putro, Joyoboyo 14 movement, a little cumin Ronggolawe malaah between 5-6 movements only. Artists Jaranan always provide a bid to the responders to meimilih which version. If at the time gebyakan vows ceremony or at the time they are always using the grip. If at the time of the response they gave to penanggapnya memili which. But they have a grip on their own in jogedanya. Jaranan advance to penabuhnya sekararang no such stage. Beginning in the 1980s Jaranan already existing stage for drummers. The stage is intended for drummers can freely within view Jaranan player movement. Jaranan here no one is above the stage like Jaranan Safitri Putro. If Jaranan Safitri Putro was not Jaranan name. If it's just dancing and no name is interfering ndadinya sari. because the name Jaranan it must exist that ndadi ndadi if nobody's called not Jaranan. Competition among artists Jaranan the other one with apparently quite high. Various groups memikliki Jaranan the boss, they are more willing to slam the price. For those who are community Jaranan like Jaranan Wijaya Putra. Would object to the imposition of price like this. The artists will not be able to eat anything if it dropped the price response. Rates response to Jaranan Wijaya Putra it ranges from 1500.000 to 1000.000 rupiah. Meanwhile, if there is another Jaranan who has a boss, would dare to take on underneath. 800,000 to 600,000 could be diladeni. "I'm sorry for Jaranan-tiny Jaranan it. Because I think that small Jaranan will not be able to live "Mr. Wijaya Putra Jaranan fat from it. Jaranan In Tourism Projects The city government kediri using organya DK3 (Arts Council of Kediri) and the Tourism Office will make a kind of guidebook to Jaranan. This book will examine many of the typical kediri Jaranan grip. They along with his team already prepared everything unruk make the book. Jaranan pemakeman Project is planned in the year 2008. All this has been done by the tourism department to conduct pakemisasi Jaranan Kediri is to explore existing data. The data they get from the elders Jaranan. "We can not arbitrarily to determine these things. Our effort is to gather the elders to membincang Jaranan together about art. Then the seminar and agreed '. Mr. Gunter said. Pemakeman plan will involve the various figures elders Jaranan artists and historians. They also strive for this pemakeman can not really leave the existing tradition in the arts in Kediri. Before it is done pemakeman tourism department will explore the historical city of Kediri teerlebih first. Program Office of Tourism for this year and 1 year ahead is looking Jaranan grip first. For the development and coaching on-Jaranan existing Jaranan Kediri tourism department invited groups to perform Jaranan Selomankleng Park every Sunday. Community Jaranan was ordered to appear to fill the entertainment in Selomangleng in turns. At certain moments Tourism Department also invites artists to perform fill Jaranan entertainment at Taman Mini Indonesia Indah. In saaat Jaranan appear in the mini park is different from the Jaranan that are here. They've dikolaborasi with other dances. For us it is important Jaranan is raised only so that its presence can still be sustainable. At this time the city government is studying and digging kediri Jaranan distinctive art Kediri. Both in terms of pakaianya, jogednya and played musical instruments. The project is still stalled because of funding diajaukan to mengerjkakan has not come down from Kediri city government. Jaranan standardization Fund will be budgeted in next year's local budget. We require documentation, funds and so forth. We plan to explore the history of the river Brantas Jaranan. We will see the development of the era Praislam Jaranan. Jaranan Kediri has a grip on their own. We have started designing Jaranan each instance that pegon not wear clothes, to which Jaranan senterewe door and still we think together Jaranan artist friends. Mr. Gunter said Tourism Office will jointly formulate the artist Jaranan then agree. Tourism is actually only facilitate them and not to appear that this is a project idea pakemisasi Tourism Office. They will be consulted with the artists in setting Jaranan art. Actually we are thinking far ahead to maintain the existence of Jaranan in the years to come. Tourism Department assumed, if there is no grip own this Jaranan will be more distant from the original. Since there is no manual Jaranan. They just develop an oral tradition. While the oral tradition that will always change every year. Each has a grip Jaranan each and do not want them to be uniform between art Jaranan with each other. According to Mr. Gunter that art does have a grip Jaranan that each will be but I try urntuk can go slowly so that they can accept me. Misalnyua during my meeting with the artists some time ago. I pernh tarianya test them to demonstrate in front of the forum. I ask for such an advanced pegon wing. They are among pegon Jaranan each other differently. Senterewe also different from each other. In the fierce debate their differences and show each other that the most correct jarananya grip. Each is a festival Jaranan I gather the artists and invited them get to dance Jaranan uniform. At yesterday's festival jury to assess Jaranan confusion which is good. Since each Jaranan have characters each. So that we can not see where that should be assessed. Finally, who is either a win. But they are also a lot of protests about the appraisal jury. Because they also assume that jarananya who has the best dance but did not win in the festival. The local government must be very clever marketing of local arts. So not only the arts that are popular are we told to play. Also for those who do not have a name we have adopted. I do not see that there are quality but I always give a small example in order to follow Jaranan Jaranan already big. Artists in Kediri are often moved around the room. I mean that they always mengiikuti art which populist and mainstream society. If the artist formerly ludruk yes many are in ludruk. If it is now forbidden to play their ludruk rollicking moved on artists Jaranan History Jaranan Art Jaranan began to emerge since the 10th century Hijri. Precisely in the year 1041. or together with Kahuripan kingdom is divided into 2 ie the eastern part of the kingdom with its capital Jenggala Kahuripan and west of the Kediri kingdom Panjalu or Dhahapura Capital. King Airlangga had a daughter named Goddard Support the sky. He was a very beautiful kediri. At the time many who applied, he held a contest. Applicants Sky Goddess Songgo all powerful. They both have high strength. Sky Goddess Songgo actually do not want to get married and she want to be a hermit only. King Airlangga force Goddess Songgo Heaven For married. Eventually he wants to get married with one request. He who can make art that does not exist in Java she would become her husband. There are some people who want to apply Songgo Goddess of Heaven. Among them are Klono Sewandono of Wengker, Toh Good envoy Singo Barong From Blitar, kalawraha a duke from the south coast, and 4 soldiers who came from Blitar. The applicants followed the contest jointly held by the Goddess of Heaven Songgo. They departed from their places to Kediri to apply Songgo Goddess of Heaven. Of the few applicants that they met and fought street before following the contest in Kediri. In the battle was won by Klana Sewandono or Pujangganom. In the battle won and Singo Ludoyo Pujangganom lose. At the time of the defeat was apparently Singo Singo Ludoyo Ludoyo have an appointment with Pujangganom. Lion Ludoyo asked not to be killed. Pujangganom apparently agreed to the deal. However Pujangganom Singo Barong has a requirement that must mengiring temantenya with Dewi Sangga sky to Wengker. Temanten convoy was to be accompanied by a lesson-horse by crossing the underground with the accompaniment of musical instruments from bamboo and iron. In today's iron into kenong. And the bamboo into a trumpet and Jaranan. In the course of the convoy temantenya Goddess Songgo Sky with Pujangganom it, Singo Ludoyo assume that he had come to Wengker, but it turns out he's still up in Mount Liman. He got angry at that time so he ransacked the Mount Liman it and now it becomes Simoroto. Finally, before he hit the ground Wengker he returned to Kediri. He came out in the Cave of Selomangklung. Now the name of the place is selomangkleng. Because the Goddess of Heaven Sonmggo been trafficked to Wengker by Puijangganom and did not want to be king in Kediri, the power granted to siblings Kahuripan named Ox and Ox Amiluhut Amijaya. After Sangga sky trafficked by Pujangganom to the area Wengker Bantar Wind, Goddess of Heaven Sangga change the place name became Roxburgh Jaranan appeared in Kediri was only to illustrate boyongnya Songgo goddess of the sky towards Wengker Bantar kediri Wind. At boyongan to Wengker, Goddess of Heaven and Klana Sewandana Sangga dikarak by Singo Barong. Pengarakan was done by breaking out of the ground while dancing. Musical instrument that is played is derived from bamboo and iron. In today's iron into kenong. To commemorate the contest held by the Goddess of Heaven and wedding Songgo with Klana Sewandono or Doctors of the community this Anom Jaranan kediri make art. While in Ponorogo Appears Reog. Two of this art actually has almost the same historical roots. Jaranan art was passed down from generation to generation until now

BlogHer Original Post
Let's play a game, shall we? I think pretty much all of us have ideas about wardrobe basics and what they should cost, but they vary vastly by geographic location, socioeconomic class, vocation, age and myriad other considerations. Still, I'm curious if there are certain overall financial fashion guidelines on which most women agree.

A method for obtaining the far field pattern of a phased array MLS antenna using measurements by a monitor located in the near field of the MLS antenna. The near field pattern differs from the far field pattern because of the presence of phase error terms in the measured near field pattern. The method comprises computing the Fourier transform of the complex conjugates of the phase error term of the near field pattern and convolving that transform with the measured near field pattern to obtain the far field pattern.
1. A method of monitoring the far field antenna pattern of a phased array Antenna using a monitor antenna located in the near field of said phased array antenna, said phased array antenna transmitting a beam that is scanned at a constant rate, the scan angle of said beam relative to the boresight of said phased array antenna, at any time (t), being βs (t); said method comprising:
computing the Fourier transform of complex conjugates of the phase error term contained in the near field pattern of said phased array antenna, said phase error term being due to said location of said monitor antenna in the near field;
measuring the antenna pattern of said phased array antenna received by said monitor antenna to provide the measured near field pattern of said phased array antenna, said measuring step including the steps of:
applying the signals induced in said monitor antenna by said beam of said phased array antenna to a receiver to provide a signal output corresponding to the near field pattern of said phased array antenna;
detecting in a quadrature detector said output of said receiver to provide complex real and imaginary components of said output;
collecting samples from both said real and imaginary components of said receiver output at times ti such that said times ti correspond to equal increments of sin βs (t), said collected samples constituting said measured near field pattern of said phased array antenna; and
convolving said measured near field pattern with said computed Fourier transform to obtain the complex real and imaginary components of the far field pattern of said phased array antenna.
2. A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein said computed Fourier transform comprises a sequence of correction coefficients R(R0,m), where m=1, 2, . . . M, and wherein said step of convolving said measured near field pattern with said computed Fourier transform includes:
providing a shift register having a total of M successive stages m, where m=1, 2, . . . M;
weighting the output at each stage m of said shift register with the corresponding one of said correction coefficients R(R0,m);
applying said collected samples of said real and imaginary components sequentially to said shift register;
shifting said applied samples serially through said shift register;
accumulating the sum of the weighted outputs of said shift register as said samples are shifted through said shift register; and
storing said accumulated sum at the time the first of said applied samples is shifted out of the Mth stage of said shift register, and at the time each succeeding one of said applied samples is shifted out of the Mth stage of said shift register, said stored accumulated sums constituting the complex components of the far field pattern of said phased array antenna.
This application is a continuation-in-part of application Ser. No. 803,233, filed Dec. 5, 1991, now abandoned.
The present invention provides an improved method for error-corrected near field monitoring of the far field pattern generated by a Microwave Landing System (MLS) transmitting antenna. More particularly, the invention relates to a method of MLS near field signal monitoring which reconstructs the entire main beam portion of the far field pattern generated by a scanning phased array antenna, and does so in a fashion which compensates for near field effects.
Field monitors are employed in airport Microwave Landing Systems to check the accuracy and quality of the signal radiated by the MLS antenna. For realism, the field monitor should measure the same guidance beam as would be measured by an airborne MLS receiver. However, such realism requires that the monitor antenna be located in the far field of the MLS antenna, far removed from the distortions encountered in the near field of the MLS antenna. It is generally recognized that far field antenna pattern measurements should be conducted at a minimum distance of 2 D2 /λ, where D is the aperture of the antenna and λ is the wavelength of the radiated signal, if near field distortions are to be avoided. If this criterion is followed for a typical MLS antenna (D=12 feet, λ=0.2 feet), the monitor antenna must be located at a minimum distance of 1440 feet from the MLS antenna.
Few airport environments provide an obstacle-free path of adequate length to permit antenna pattern measurements to be conducted in the far field. Moreover, the signals received by the monitor would likely be corrupted by refractions and reflections from airport installations and from aircraft movements on the runway. The preferred distance for location of the monitor antenna is therefore about 150 feet from the MLS antenna, ahead of such obstructions as runway approach lights. Clearly, the monitor antenna is then well into the near field of the MLS antenna and cannot measure the guidance beam as would a distant airborne receiver.
Near field distortion effects occur because the r.f. path delays between the monitor antenna and radiating elements of the array at the outer edges of the transmitting antenna aperture are significantly different from the path delays between the monitor antenna and radiating elements near the center of the transmitting antenna aperture. Near field effects may be overcome by applying certain compensating factors to the transmitting antenna to cause the guidance beam to be refocused at the monitor antenna. Such a procedure is obviously unacceptable as it results in distortion of the far field guidance beam.
An integral monitor antenna is known and has been used to monitor performance of the MLS transmitting antenna. The integral monitor antenna comprises a slotted waveguide or a similar array of antenna elements that extends completely across the transmitting antenna aperture in very close proximity thereto. Compensation for near field effects is built into the integral monitor antenna so that the signal output of the integral monitor antenna simulates the signal output of a monitor antenna located in the far field of the transmitting antenna. However, it is impractical to duplicate the structure of the integral monitor antenna, considering the necessary changes in scale, when the monitor antenna is to be located at a distance of about 150 feet from the transmitting antenna.
The present invention utilizes the Fourier relationship between the near field pattern and the aperture function to reconstruct the far field pattern of the MLS antenna from sample measurements taken by a monitor antenna located in the near field of the MLS antenna.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,926,186, issued May 15, 1990, to R. J. Kelly and E.F.C. LaBerge, the present inventors, for "FFT-Based Aperture Monitor for Scanning Phased Arrays", owned by the assignee of the present invention, discloses a method in which signal samples, take by an integral monitor antenna or a monitor antenna located in the far field, are processed by Fourier transforms to provide the aperture function of the MLS antenna. Obtaining the aperture function in such manner permits the identification of individual phase shifters or other components of the MLS antenna that may be faulty.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,553,145, issued Nov. 12, 1985, to G. E. Evans for "Method of Forming the Far-Field Beam Pattern of an Antenna", discloses a method based on Fourier transforms for obtaining the far field pattern of a rotating antenna from measurements taken in the near field. The method collects near field signal samples at critical points of the antenna pattern for a partial reconstruction of the far field pattern. Close synchronization of angle transducers at the transmitting antenna pedestal and at the monitor receiver is required.
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a method for near field beam monitoring of a scanning phased array MLS antenna which provides a complete reconstruction of the far field beam pattern, and which can be accomplished during normal operation of the array.
The near field antenna pattern can be represented as the product of the aperture function f(x) and a quadratic phase error term q(x). Using the Fourier convolution theorem in the spatial frequency domain, the near field pattern F[p,R0 ] is:
F[p,R0 ]=F(p) Q(p)
where F(p) is the far field pattern and also the transform of f(x) and Q(p) is the transform of q(x). A correction term Q'(p), which is the complex conjugate of Q(p), is convolved with F[p,R0 ] such that:
F[p,R0 ] Q'(p)=F(p) Q(p) Q'(p)=F(p),
since Q(p) Q'(p)=δ(p), the delta function.
Briefly, method involves the steps of:
1. Computing the Fourier transform of the complex conjugate of the quadratic phase error term of the near field pattern.
2. Sampling the near field complex antenna pattern of the scanning beam at times corresponding to equal increments of sin βs (t), where βs (t) is the beam scan angle.
3. Convolving the transform obtained in step (1) with the samples obtained in step (2) to generate the reconstructed far field antenna pattern.

FIG. 9 is a graph showing the error between the corrected near field pattern of FIG. 7 and the far field pattern of FIG. 8.
FIG. 1 illustrates a typical MLS and near field monitor installation at an airport. A phased array MLS antenna 10 is located beyond the stop end 11 of a runway 12 and obstructions thereabout, such as runway lights 14. Antenna 10 transmits an azimuth guidance beam 13 toward the approach end of runway 12. Beam 13 is scanned through an angle βs about the runway center line 15. Antenna 10 is typically located so that the boresight of the antenna coincides with the runway center line, as shown, but locations offset from the runway center line are allowed. Antenna 10 is typically located about 200 feet from the nearest obstruction, such as lights 14. A field monitor antenna 16 is located in the near field of antenna 10 within the scan coverage area of beam 13, suitably at a distance of about 150 feet.
FIG. 1 shows a typical MLS installation for azimuth guidance. It will be understood that a complete MLS further includes a separate phased array antenna for generating a guidance beam that is scanned in elevation, and that the invention is equally applicable to the near field monitoring of the antenna pattern of the elevation antenna.
Referring to FIG. 2, phased array antenna 10 comprises a plurality N of radiating elements 18 spaced equally at distances Δx across the aperture of the antenna. The normal to the linear array of elements 18, line A--A, is the boresight of the antenna. Monitor antenna 16 is positioned at a distance R0 from the center 0 of the array at a bearing angle β to the boresight A--A. The distance from monitor antenna 16 to any element of the array is R0 �ΔR. Selecting element 18' as an example, the solution of triangle OCD is: ##EQU1##
The quadratic term of equation (2) appears as the phase error term in the near field antenna pattern F(β,R0,t), equation (3), for a phased array antenna 10 having N elements 18, measured by a monitor antenna 16 located at a distance R0 from the center of the array. ##EQU2## where: ak is the voltage excitation of element (k), k=0,1 . . . N-1;
βis the bearing angle of monitor antenna 16 from A--A; and ##EQU3##
Equation (3) contains three exponential terms. The first (which is a function of β) being the spatial term, the second (a function of βs (t)) the temporal term, and the third (a function of R0) the quadratic defocusing term. The far field pattern of antenna 10 can be obtained from equation (3) by allowing R0 to approach infinity, thus: ##EQU4##
Equation (4) is a Fourier transform of the aperture function with the temporal exponential term forming the Fourier Kernel. When a phase correction term, ##EQU5## corresponding to the conjugate of the quadratic phase error term, is imposed on the aperture function, the following characterization of the far field pattern, G(β,∞,t), results: ##EQU6## where f(β,R0,Xk) is the effective aperture function of the transmitting array measured at the field monitor location (including both the spatial and the defocusing terms) and r(R0,Xk) is the desired refocusing term. Although r(R0,xk) can be computed from equation (4a), f(β,R0,xk) is not directly measurable in this instance.
In applying the method while the MLS antenna is operating with a normal scan, the near field antenna pattern is sampled at non-uniform intervals of time, ti, corresponding to equal increments of sin βs (t). More particularly, the samples are taken at times ti such that: ##EQU7## where: Θs is the scan rate of the MLS antenna beam;
t0 is the time at which the beam scans through 0 degrees; and ##EQU8##
By substituting equation (8) into equation (6), the following Discrete Fourier Transform is obtained: ##EQU9##
The final step illustrated above relies upon the Fourier property that the transform of the product f(β,R0,k) r(R0,k) is the convolution of the individual transforms F(β,R0,i) R(R0,i). The transform F(β,R0,i) is obtained by sampling the near field antenna pattern at intervals ti. The coefficients R(R0,i) are precomputed from equation (12) below using the specific values of R0, Xk, and N that are dependent on a particular monitor installation site and MLS antenna. The value of M is selected to provide a sufficient number of samples to obtain the accuracy desired. Suitably, M=256 and typically N=48. ##EQU10##
Referring to FIG. 3, the MLS beam signals F(β,R0,t) induced in monitor antenna 16 are amplified and converted to i.f. frequency by a receiver 21. A quadrature detector 22 converts the i.f. output of receiver 21 into complex real and imaginary components of F(β,R0,t). The analog outputs of detector 22 are applied to an A/D converter 23 that is controlled by a timer 20 so as to produce digitized real and imaginary samples of F(β,R0,t) at intervals ti, where ti is defined in equation (7). The real and imaginary samples F(β,R0,m) from converter 23 are stored in sample storage 24 for use in a complex convolution routine or for application to a complex convolver 25 that convolves the samples with the precomputed coefficients R(R0,i) stored at 27. The complex outputs of convolver 25, comprising the real and imaginary components of G(β,∞,tm), are stored in memory 26 whence they may be retrieved for conversion into points of signal amplitude, A, at times, t, for display, plotting, or other processing of the far field antenna pattern of the MLS antenna. Conversion of the components stored in memory 26 into amplitudes merely involves the simple calculation A=[(real)2 +(imag.)2 ]1/2.
FIG. 4 is a simplified block diagram of a shift register means for performing the operations of convolver 25. It will be understood that such shift register means are provided for processing the complex sample outputs of A/D converter 23 via complex multiplication and summation operations. Samples from storage 24 are successively applied to an M stage shift register 30 comprising stages 31-m-33 spaced at intervals corresponding to equal increments of sin βs (t). The output 35-m'-38 of each stage 31-m-33 is weighted with the appropriate one of the precomputed coefficients R(R0,m), i.e., the mth stage output is weighted with the mth coefficient, so that as each of the i samples is clocked through a register stage m, the product of that sample and the mth coefficient is output to an accumulator 40. When the first (i=1) sample is clocked out of the final register stage 33, the Mth stage, the contents of accumulator 40 are shifted into memory 26. The new contents of accumulator 40 are shifted into storage 26 as the second, and each succeeding sample, is clocked out of register stage 33. Processing of the near field samples for conversion into the far field pattern is completed when all M samples of the measured waveform f(β,R0,t) have been passed through convolver 25.
FIG. 5 is a flow chart describing the processing of samples of the near field antenna pattern to obtain the far field pattern. Processing begins (box 40) with the collection of M real and imaginary samples of the near field pattern at times ti. These samples are placed in storage 24 (FIG. 3). The real and imaginary samples are processed separately in a routine, or in a convolver as shown in FIG. 4, the operation of which is shown by boxes 41-44. A sample is called from storage (41) and an N-point convolution (42) is performed thereon in which each set of N consecutive samples is multiplied in turn by the corresponding correction coefficients R(R0,1) . . . R(R0,M), with the result of each multiplication being accumulated (43), and the accumulated sum is placed in storage (44) as the multiplication of each sample m by the coefficient R(R0,M) is completed. Decision block 45 iterates the steps of sample fetching, convolving, sum accumulation, and storage until all M samples have been processed.
FIG. 6 shows the near field pattern of an MLS phased array antenna as measured by a monitor located 100 feet from the MLS antenna but without refocusing according to the invention. The MLS operated at 5060.7 Mhz.
FIG. 7 shows the pattern of the MLS antenna measured from the near field as in FIG. 6 with refocusing according to the invention. FIG. 8 shows the pattern of the MLS antenna used in preparation of FIG. 6 as measured by a monitor located in the far field; and
FIG. 9 shows the difference between the patterns of FIG. 7 and FIG. 8.
A development of the mathematical basis of the invention that is more complete than that given above follows.
The discrete convolution of equation (11) is: ##EQU11##
Using the Fourier Kernel defined in equation (10), the individual transform terms are as follows: ##EQU12## It is well known that for Discrete Fourier Transforms: ##EQU13## Applying equation (15) to equation (14) eliminates all terms where k is not equal to n, and yields: ##EQU14## Finally, substituting the fully expanded forms of f(*) and r(*) into equation (16): ##EQU15## which is the far field pattern given by equation (4).
It will be understood that the particular embodiments described above are only illustrative of the principles of the present invention, and that various modifications could be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, which is limited only by the claims that follow.
