W. R. JAMES Nov. 21, 1957 RECEPTACLE FOR TRANSISTORS OR INTEGRATED CIRCUITS TO BE TESTED Original Filed Aug. 6. 1964.
William R. Jams INVENTQR.
ATTORN EY United States Patent 3,354,394 RECEPTACLE FOR TRANSISTORS OR INTEGRATED CIRCUITS TO BE TESTED William R. James, Richardson, Tex., assignor to Texas Instruments Incorporated, Dallas, Tex., a corporation of Delaware Continuation of application Ser. No. 387,863, Aug. 6, 1964. This application Jan. 12, 1967, Ser. No. 608,940. 1 Claim. (Cl. 324-158) This is a continuation application of Serial No. 387,863 filed August 6, 1964 and now abandoned.
This invention relates to receptacles, or carriers, for transporting or handling transistors or integrated circuits, and more particularly to a receptacle which can be used for the electrical testing of substantially flat transistors and integrated circuits.
Previous attempts to build a suitable receptacle have encountered diificulties with obtaining the right base material, i.e., one which would not be bulky to handle and could withstand the temperature extremes at which the device is to be tested. Attempts have also been made to use spring contacts or other mechanical means for making contact to the leads of the device, all of which can be easily damaged and are generally unreliable.
It is, therefore, the principal object of this invention to provide a reliable, inexpensive receptacle which can withstand repeated insertions into a test socket over a wide temperature range.
In accordance with the invention, the receptacle body is made of a ceramic material in two separable sections, a top section and a bottom section. On the bottom section some electrically conductive metal, such as silver, nickel, or the like, is coated in strips in such a manner that the leads of the device to be tested may be placed against the strips and held firmly in place therewith by the use of an O ring located in the top section. The receptacle is so designed that the O ring, preferably made of silicone rubber or the like, exerts pressure on the leads of the device to be tested to insure a good, reliable contact with the metallized strips on the bottom section. Interlocking parts on the top and bottom sections tend to prevent incorrect assembly of the receptacle, the two sections being held securely together by three spring clips. For higher temperature operation than that of a silicone rubber O ring, the testing could be performed by electrically isolated knit metallic pads being placed in the cavity provided for the O ring.
The novel features characteristic of the invention are set forth in the appended claims. The invention itself, however, along with other objects and advantages thereof, may be best understood from the following detailed description and appended claims when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in which the same numeral designations in the difference figures of the drawing indicate identical parts, and wherein:
FIGURE 1 is a pictorial view of a receptacle for transistors or integrated circuits, constructed in accordance with this invention;
FIGURE 2 is a plan view of the bottom section of the body of the receptacle, indicated by the numeral 2 in FIGURE 1;
FIGURE 3 is a partially cut-away plan view of the receptacle as shown in FIGURE 1.
FIGURE 1 illustrates the complete receptacle, top section 1 being held in place against bottom section 2 through the use of clamping means, spring clips 3, 6 and 7. Also, the electrically conductive strips are partially exposed and extend to one edge of bottom section 2 so that the exposed area of said section can be inserted into a test socket (not shown). Receiver 4 in which the device 22 3,354,394 Patented Nov. 21, 1967 to be tested is lodged is illustrated as extending through the top section 1 and the bottom section 2,-the device 22 to be tested (see FIGURES 2 and 3) being sandwiched in between.
Referring now to FIGURE 2, the receiver 4, partially edged by the metallized strips 5, is so constructed as to accommodate a device 22 to be tested, the metallized strips 5 being so disposed around the edge of the receiver as to have similar spaced-apart dimensions as do the leads 23 of the device 22 with which they come in electrical contact for the testing of the device. The strips 5 extend to or near the edge of the section 2 in order that the receptacle may be inserted into a test socket or the like for testing the device. Circular indents 11 and 12 are designed to receive the protrusions 16 and 17, respectively, in the top section 1 of the receptacle (shown in FIGURE 3) to align said top section 1 with bottom section 2. Notches 8, 9 and 10 and spring-receiving indents 13, 14 and 27 are so built in section 2, along with corresponding notches 24, 25 and 26 and indents 18, 19 and 20 in section 1 (see FIGURE 3) that spring clips 3, 6 and 7, as shown in FIGURE 1, are used to hold both sections locked together as a unit receptacle.
FIGURE 3 illustrates a partially cut-away plan view of the receptacle, and shows how 0 ring 21, a resilient silicone rubber, for example, is placed in the receiver 15. Section 1 is attached to section 2 by clips 3, 6 and 7, with the O ring 21 pressing against the leads 23 to secure them to the metallized strips 5.
While the drawings illustrate one embodiment of the invention, designed for use with an integrated circuit device, it should be appreciated that other embodiments would include carriers for testing other electrical devices with any number of leads, such as diodes, rectifiers, transistors, and the like, the conductive strips beng provided and arranged in different numbers, manner or sequence. Numerous other constructions may be devised by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claim.
What is claimed is:
A receptacle adapted to receive a semiconductor device for testing, said semiconductor device having a plurality of external leads, said receptacle comprising:
(a) separable top and bottom sections of substantial electrically non-conductive material;
(b) said top section having a cavity receiver portion within a major face thereof, said cavity receiver portion having resilient pressing means therein;
(0) said bottom section having an opening in a major face thereof and extending vertically throughout said bottom section including another opening extending vertically from said cavity receiver portion throughout said top section, both of said openings being superimposed whereby said semiconductor device is exposed within said opening;
(d) a plurality of metallic strips in spaced-apart relationship upon said major face of said bottom section, said plurality of metallic strips extending from said opening and having end portions terminating at a single surface area of said major face;
(c) said top section covering said bottom section and so positioned to enable said resilient pressing means to eilect contact between said plurality of external leads of said semiconductor device and said plurality of metallic strips;
(f) said top section being of smaller area than said bottom section so that said end portions of said metallic strips at said single surface area remain uncovered by said top section, thereby to enable said single surface area to be inserted in a test socket; and
(g) a removable spring clamp for locking said top and bottom sections together.

At its meeting in Edinburgh from 11-13 June, the General Synod of the Scottish Episcopal Church chose to delete any reference to marriage as being between a man and a woman in order to facilitate its clergy in marrying two people of the same sex.
In contrast to that decision, we reaffirm the doctrine of marriage as given in the Old Testament in Genesis 2:24, reaffirmed by Jesus in Matthew 19:5 and by Paul in Ephesians 5:31 - 'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.'
We are committed to loving and supporting all the people in our congregations, including many gay people, and in particular at this time those who are left confused and distressed by the decisions of the General Synod.
We will take some time to pray and reflect on what the General Synod has committed to, before we discern what must be done to support people in congregations all over Scotland who will be unable to support this innovation.
Names can be added by email to email@example.com. Any member of the Scottish Episcopal Church who wishes to affirm this response is welcome to sign it.

Intel's UXA 2D Performance Improvements
In this month's AMD Catalyst 10.6 driver update for Linux they rolled out the ATI 2D Acceleration Architecture, which pleased many ATI Radeon customers, but they aren't the only ones working towards improved 2D support. Intel's open-source engineers have been working to optimize their xf86-video-intel DDX driver 2D performance with much of this work being clearly shown in the Intel 2.12 X.Org driver update. Here are some benchmarks showing the significant performance gains brought by this open-source Intel driver.

How The ATI Catalyst Driver Has Matured Since The RV770 Launch
It has been two years since the ATI Radeon HD 4800 (RV770) series launched so we have gone back since that monumental hardware launch and have re-tested each Catalyst driver release since then to see how the performance has changed for the ATI Radeon HD 4850 graphics card. The Catalyst driver has certainly matured over the course of two years in speeding up the OpenGL performance with this hardware along with bringing new features to their proprietary driver, but it is not exactly smooth sailing.

Is AMD's New 2D Acceleration Architecture Still Slow?
Earlier this week AMD released the Catalyst 10.6 driver that on the Linux side of the table had finally made use by default of their new 2D acceleration architecture, offered official support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5, and formalized their OpenGL 3.3/4.0 support. Since the release of the Catalyst 10.6 Linux driver, we have been running a new set of tests on their new ATI 2D acceleration architecture, but the results are not what you may expect when compared to the open-source ATI Linux driver.

Where An Open ATI Driver Beats The Catalyst Driver
A number of weeks back a set of benchmarks were published showing even the latest open-source ATI 3D driver is still no match to an old Catalyst driver and that even Gallium3D lags behind the Catalyst driver for those interested in OpenGL gaming. However, in other areas the open-source ATI driver stack is beginning to win by measurable amounts.

The Rate of ATI Gallium3D Changes Is Impressive
Last week prior to heading over to Germany for LinuxTag, I had ran a new set of ATI R500 Gallium3D benchmarks with an ATI Radeon X1950PRO graphics card and comparing the latest Mesa/Gallium3D graphics driver performance in the Mesa 7.9-devel Git code with both the Gallium3D and classic Mesa DRI drivers to the older Mesa stack found in Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. The ATI "R300g" driver as its known continues to advance, and over the past week this driver has pushed forward even more. Here is another set of ATI Gallium3D tests.

Talking About Kernel Mode-Setting
There was a talk last week at LinuxTag in Berlin by Egbert Eich about kernel mode-setting and the DRM (Direct Rendering Manager) graphics stack on Linux. Egbert is, of course, a long-time X developer and openSUSE developer at Novell who was one of the masterminds behind the RadeonHD graphics driver and has worked on various pieces of X over the years. In Egbert's brief KMS talk he briefly covered the history of the Linux graphics stack, the user and kernel-space APIs for DRM mode-setting, and related topics. For those that missed out on his talk, below are his slides.

ATI R500 Gallium3D Performance In June 2010
The past several months have been very exciting in the world of Gallium3D, the new graphics driver architecture for Linux and other operating systems that has been in development for years. This year we have witnessed the emergence of LLVMpipe to accelerate OpenGL commands on the CPU, Nouveau's Gallium3D driver starting to work well, and many other advancements. Over the past few months we have also been pleased with how the "R300g" driver has taken shape with this Gallium3D driver for ATI Radeon R300/400/500 series hardware (up through the Radeon X1000 series) stabilizing, performing well, and advancing beyond the classic Mesa 3D R300 driver. Today we have a fresh set of benchmarks looking at this ATI Gallium3D driver that soon will become the default.

NVIDIA's 256.25 Beta Linux Driver Slows Things Down?
Last week NVIDIA released their first 256.xx proprietary beta Linux display driver that brought many VDPAU improvements, installer improvements, support for new GLX extensions, various bug-fixes, and other enhancements. However, some user reports have shown the 256.xx driver is actually slower than NVIDIA's current pre-200.xx series drivers and so we have carried out a set of tests to see what things are looking like from within our labs. Our preliminary tests do indeed illustrate a drop in performance when upgrading to this new driver.

VIA's Linux Strategy Takes A Turn With Hidden Driver
Yesterday we reported on VIA's Linux dreams not materializing with their GEM/TTM memory management support still missing even though we are half-way into 2010 -- more than two years after VIA announced its most recent open-source initiative. It turns out, however, for what VIA views as its memory management work is actually done. VIA has inconspicuously handed over some of its code to the OpenChrome developers in order to create a new driver that has been dubbed the "openvia" driver. VIA has supposedly provided the source-code to an X driver plus TTM/GEM DRM, but this new project largely remains a hidden mystery.

A Detailed Look At The ATI Linux Power Management
Last week we reported that the open-source ATI Linux driver had picked up improved power management in the form of dynamic power management and power management profiles that can be defined by the end-user. With the ATI Linux power management finally coming to fruition within the Linux kernel for its kernel mode-setting / DRM driver, we have decided to take a close look at how this power management support is working in the real world.

DEFINITION of 'SEC Form NT 10-Q'
An SEC form required for companies that will not be able to submit their 10-Q filing (for quarterly financial results) by the SEC deadline or in a timely manner. SEC Form NT 10-Q requires the registrant's information and the reason why the 10-Q is delayed. It also provides for application for relief from the deadline.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'SEC Form NT 10-Q'
The form 10-Q is required to be filed within 45 days following the end of each of a company's first three fiscal quarters. If the 10-Q cannot be filed in a timely manner, the company must file a Form 10-QT with the commission. A very common reason for an NT 10-Q is a merger or acquisition, which prevents results from being incorporated in time for the filing. The SEC provides for "unreasonable effort and expense", with explanation, as part of the application for relief.

The Gift of the Christmas Cookie: Sharing the True Meaning of Jesus' Birth : It's the Christmas season during a time when people had little money to spend. Cookie jars held pennies, not Christmas cookies. So when Jack smells something delicious coming from the kitchen, he can't believe his nose. Cookies! But his excitement turns to disappointment when he learns the cookies aren't for him. Instead, Mother is baking them for the needy people at their church. While Jack helps roll out the dough, his mother tells him the legend of the Christmas cookie. In a captivating interplay of simple words and beautiful illustrations, The Legend of the Christmas Cookie tells a tender story of giving - not just cookies, but gifts of the heart that last forever.

Admissions Ambassador Program Vision and Purpose The Smith Ambassadors are an active part of the admissions process. The fundamental mission of ambassadors is to serve as the "face" of Smith. Ambassadors volunteer to represent the diversity of the Smith graduate community and serve as liaisons between prospective students, admitted students and Smith staff members. Ambassadors are involved in the entire admissions cycle (identification, information gathering, cultivation, decision making, courting, and enrollment). They are essential to the recruiting and admissions operation as they enhance the experience for prospective students by providing a valuable touchpoint. The Admissions Ambassador Program is not a separate student-run organization. It is a branch of the MBA/MS Admissions Office and operates under the auspices of that office. Roles and Responsibilities of Ambassadors Ambassador responsibilities include development, coordination and participation in a variety of Smith-sponsored activities. Ambassadors serve as volunteers for the MBA/MS Admissions Office. Attendance at the Ambassador Training Session is mandatory. Mission Summary Represent Smith at recruiting events and activities both on and off campus Create new relationships/programs for identifying and contacting prospective MBA students Provide opportunities for prospective students (applicants as well as admits) to interact with current Smith MBA students Enhance the quality and amount of communication from the MBA/MS Admissions Office Process Current 1st and 2nd year MBA students are invited to apply for membership in the Ambassador Program. Students who are selected to be Ambassadors will be provided with training to establish roles, responsibilities and expectations. Chairperson A Graduate Assistant for the MBA/MS Admissions Office will serve as the Chair of the Ambassador Program. In this role, he/she is responsible for coordinating the 2011-2012 Ambassador Calendar. Dustin Hodgson, Assistant Director, serves as the official advisor to the organization. Time Commitment Ambassadors volunteer approximately 1-2 hours per week. During this time, activities include responding to e-mails, working on specific projects (outlined below), touring prospective students and/or assisting the Admissions team in answering questions of prospective students. Additionally, Ambassadors are expected to participate in Admitted Student Weekend as well as other fairs and/or forums, information sessions, and Visitor/Host Programs. Activities and Projects I.

DLO launches OpenFM frequency tool for iPhone
DLO has launched its new OpenFM application, a free iPhone-friendly online tool for searching for open FM frequencies. The application, which can be found at dlo.com/openfm, enables users to search for the clearest FM station in their area by city and state or zip code. To provide users with more up-to-date information, OpenFM searches an active FCC-provided database of licensed FM broadcasters. Andrew Green, vice president of marketing for DLO, said, "OpenFM is the perfect companion for any FM transmitter owner, because it gives you real-time access to the best available frequencies in any area, in any state." In addition to the iPhone version of OpenFM, DLO is also offering a standard web-based version of the application, and plans on releasing an OpenFM widget for both PC and Mac in the coming weeks.

Lack, R-F; (2004) Good work, little soldier: Text and pretext. Journal of European Studies , 34 (1-2) 34 - 43. 10.1177/0047244104044240.
|PDF - Requires a PDF viewer such as GSview, Xpdf or Adobe Acrobat Reader
This article reads the relation between Denis's Beau Travail and Jean-Luc Godard's 1960 film Le Petit Soldat as a film-on-film variant of film-on-book adaptation. The model informing this reading is not so much intertextual as pretextual. The principal points of contact between the two films discussed are 'actor' (Michel Subor), 'character' (Bruno Forestier) and 'narrator' (Forestier/Galoup). The use in Beau Travail of Le Petit Soldat is compared with and differentiated from the use of Melville's 'Billy Budd, Sailor'. The conclusion arrived at is that the film-on-film relation can be read as a development of the mirror motif borrowed from Godard by Denis, in order to replace abyssal models of intertextual infinity with the finitudes of abyssal reflexivity. This is to offer a model of pretextuality that is not dependent on privileging the pretext: implicit is the suggestion that Beau Travail and Le Petit Soldat may be read as a single, if hybrid, text.

Reader voices: Adoption journey started with a home teaching visit
My patriarchal blessing and that of my wife indicate we'll have children and talks about the importance of teaching them by example and instilling in them a love of the gospel.
But my wife was unable to have children.
On one of my home teaching visits, the sister asked if would be interested in adoption, as she knew of my wife's situation. I said yes.
She told me her husband's sister was going to have a child that she couldn't keep and would we be interested in adopting the child.
The child was in Massachusetts and we were in Vermont, so we hired a lawyer to handle the legal end of it.
Both my wife and I, along the couple who asked if we would adopt, went to the hospital in Fitchburg, Mass., when the baby was born. The husband of the sister I home teach, who wasn't Mormon, brought the baby out and placed him in my arms.
During a period of time, we had people from the state to check up on us. When it was time to make it official, we were to appear before a judge. The lawyer didn't think the adoption would be finalized because of the differences of religion between the biological mother and us.
The judge spent most of the time asking about my mother as my mother had once worked for the judge. The lawyer was flabbergasted.
The adoption was finalized.
About a year later, state workers asked if we would adopt another child, a girl this time and a year younger than our son. We said yes.
This happened more than 40 years ago, and we maintain close contact with this couple, and our son has met his biological family by visiting the couple who helped us adopt.

text: Supreme Court Bulletin: Supreme Court Legalizes Same Sex Marriage By Don Rush • Jun 26, 2015 official photo WASHINGTON (AP) - The Supreme Court has declared that same-sex couples have a right to marry anywhere in the United States. Gay and lesbian couples already can marry in 36 states and the District of Columbia. The court's ruling on Friday means the remaining 14 states, in the South and Midwest, will have to stop enforcing their bans on same-sex marriage. The outcome is the culmination of two decades of Supreme Court litigation over marriage, and gay rights generally. Delaware High Court Rejects Election Appeal By Don Rush • May 15, 2015 campaign website DOVER, Del. (AP) - The state Supreme Court has rejected an appeal from the Republican candidate in last year's recorder of deeds race in Kent County. The court ruled Thursday that a judge should have dismissed a petition filed by La Mar Gunn challenging the election results, rather than ordering a hand recount. That recount ended in a tie, and Democratic Gov. Jack Markell appointed Democratic incumbent Betty Lou McKenna to the office. Delaware Senate Approves Court Nominations By Don Rush • Mar 19, 2015 biopic DOVER, Del. (AP) - The Delaware Senate has unanimously approved Gov. Jack Markell's nominations to fill vacancies on the state Supreme Court and Superior Court. Senators on Wednesday confirmed Collins Seitz Jr. to succeed retired Supreme Court Justice Henry DuPont Ridgely. They also approved Jeffrey Clark, a Kent County lawyer, state Public Service Commission member, and former Senate attorney, for a Superior Court judgeship. The votes came after friendly vettings by the Senate Executive Committee. Silence Replaces Prayer at Carroll County Commission By Don Rush • Dec 3, 2014 creative commons WESTMINSTER, Md. (AP) - The newly elected Carroll County Commissioners are standing silent on a disputed public-prayer policy. The five-member, all-Republican board opened its first meeting Tuesday in Westminster with a moment of silence instead of a prayer. They took no official action regarding the previous board's policy of opening meetings with sometimes overtly Christian prayers, said by the commissioners themselves. Maryland Mulls High Court Decision on Home-Care Workers By Don Rush • Jul 1, 2014 all ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) - Maryland's governor says the state will review its collective bargaining arrangement for home-care workers after a Supreme Court ruling on those workers and union costs. The court ruled 5-4 on Monday that thousands of home health care workers in Illinois cannot be required to pay fees that help cover a union's costs of collective bargaining. Maryland is one of at least nine other states that have allowed home care workers to join unions. U.S. Supreme Court Takes Up Maryland Tax Case By Don Rush • May 27, 2014 creative commons WASHINGTON (AP) - WASHINGTON (AP) - The Supreme Court is taking up a dispute over how a state may tax income its residents earn in another state. The high court agreed Tuesday to hear an appeal from Maryland officials to overturn a lower court ruling that found the state's tax law unconstitutional. Maryland law allows residents to deduct income taxes paid to other states from their Maryland state tax. But it does not apply that deduction when it comes to local "piggyback taxes" the state collects for county and city governments.

Self Portrait Critique
Hello fellow Concept Art peeps
I'm pretty new here so please let me know if I'm doing anything incorrectly and steer me in the right direction.
First of all thanks for stopping by my thread!
I have a piece of work here I did about 2 semesters ago apart of my entrance portfolio into my college's art program (I got in yay!).
I would love to get some opinions about this piece. PLEASE rip this thing apart I need your helpful eyes, as I really like this piece and want to maybe use it in a professional portfolio.
No need to be nice to me, your not going to hurt my feelings.
A little about the piece itself, I used a photograph of myself, used painted and a brush to make it "painterly", then rode into photoshop and did all the texture work and background stuff.
Rip me a new one kthxs

I mean, I like how it looks, and the varying textures/surfaces that you've used. The biggest problem is that the angel wing makes it seem contrived. It's like I've seen this on a Hallmark sympathy card before or something. But I think there are ways around that.
First, I'd say to dissolve the stark contrast between your face and the background --- bring the different surfaces into one another. The separation really makes me think of some kind of clichéd heaven/life-on-earth thing.
And second I think you shouldn't use such an iconic angel wing. It just seems out of place, that universal symbol against the rest of the piece which is unique. It can work, just not in this work I think.
But I do largely enjoy this. Nicely done and I hope this helps!

looks shopped and filtered, which is cool, but if you want a more painterly effect take some blenders and break up some of the hard lines around your face and especially on the hairs above your head to match the rest of the piece. (it just stands out too much)
bottom line, it just looks too blatantly like the photograph (which has a boring effect on people who look at your piece), try painting your portrait on a layer directly above your photo layer and use the eye drop tool to match your colors, this will force you to be more painterly with your brush strokes.

Yeah I had this feeling too when I made the picture. Re-examining this might help me a little.
I really like the point you brought up about bringing more unity between the background and my face. I really think that's helpful and I will try to do that.
I didn't realize the wing was working against me so I will have to think up another way to make it more original. I like the wing concept but if it comes off that way it needs to be re-thought.

The blenders is an interesting idea, so I will have to play with that a little bit.

I´m not that fond of the background, since it kinda just looks like splattering colour around in photoshop using random brushes and not really giving it that much thought. As lalu already pointed out, I would also get rid of the wing, it´s just really cliché. As for the rendering of the face (even though you would learn a lot more if you tried painting the face on your own instead of just paint over a photo), try using the strokes in different directions to get a more painterly feel to it. When they´re all in the same direction like that it just feels too much like you´ve fooled around with the smudgetool.

2004 Honda CR-V Q&A
2004 Honda CR-V Question: will it hurt the engine if i don't replace the cannister/valve on the emissions?
the engine light is on and the diagnostic test at the honda dealer said i needed this cannister and valve replaced..for $500...but if it doesn't hurt the engine, and i live in a county that doesn't require emission testing..why bother?? - Visitor
Answer 1
If the canister is allowing fuel vapor into the intake the air fuel ratio will be richer than it should be and could in the long run shorten catalytic converter life.Its hard to say with out seeing scan tool information to see Air/fuel ratio, fuel trim and O2 sensor figures. - patrick mannion

It was just a "matter of him putting it all together" as Alex Bedwell won the Starkville Country Club Invitational recently.
For many "mid-major" football programs, the chance to play a team in a big-time conference is welcomed.
Many of the smaller schools are on a mission to prove something and may enter with a chip on its shoulder.
That may be seen this weekend in Starkville. Mississippi State (2-3) host Mid-American Conference school Bowling Green (5-1) this Saturday for homecoming. Â
There are no championships or regional berths on the line in the fall, but that doesn't mean this time of the year is any less important for the Mississippi State softball program.
Seven games have been scheduled for the Bulldogs over the next three weeks and coach Vann Stuedeman wants to use those outings to introduce the newcomers to the game at a higher level.

Yorkshire Wildlife Park keeps cool during heatwave
As temperatures soared today, it wasn't just people who were enduring the heat.
While many of us bathed in the summer sun, those who look after the residents of Yorkshire Wildlife Park had to come up some more inventive ways to keep the animals cool.
Grace Melody Gardner reports:
Ostrich-like bird on the loose
Police in Worksop are on the lookout for a 6-feet tall ostrich-like bird.
Officers were called just after 5pm this evening to a report of the rhea – a 6ft tall flightless bird native to South America – being reported missing from a private collection in Carlton-in-Lindrick.
The bird is understood to have gone missing between 5pm on Monday 22 June and 12pm on Tuesday 23 June 2015.
We are warning local people and particularly those with small children to be on their guard and not to approach the bird, which poses a very real threat to the public due to its size, aggressive nature and the unfamiliar surroundings it could find itself in. Officers are working with the owner to trace the bird as we look to bring his incident to a safe conclusion. If anyone sees this bird, please call 999 immediately, quoting incident number 601 of Tuesday 23 June.
Hooch the pooch aims to be slimmer of the year
For pet owners and vets animal obesity is an increasing problem. The veterinary charity the PDSA has found that four out five professionals have seen pets getting fatter over the last two years. One of the animals fighting the battle against his weight is Hooch the rottweiler from Hull. He was rescued four years ago when he weighed almost 21 stone. But he's now in the running to be slimmer of the year since losing seven stone. Adam Fowler's been to meet him.

Dog breeding facility would 'raise welfare standards'
David Gatehouse, a spokesperson for B and K Universal sets out the reasons for the company's application.
However, Tim Phillips, from the National Anti-Vivisection Society, says breeding the dogs will fuel more experiments - which he says are unnecessary.
Calls to block plans for new beagle breeding facility
The Queen guitarist Brian May and Downton Abbey actor Peter Egan are calling on the Government to block plans for a beagle breeding facility, which would supply dogs for medical experiments.
An application from B & K Universal to expand its centre in East Yorkshire has twice been turned down by local planners. One appeal to the Secretary of State has also been rejected, but a ruling on a second appeal is due next week.
The company says animal testing is a small, but vital part, of medical research.

Man arrested over fox cub find in barn
Police are appealing for information and witnesses after finding 16 fox cubs in a barn near Malton.
The cubs - all aged from six to eight weeks old - were found by officers acting on intelligence in an outbuilding on the Birdsall Estate. They are now being cared for in an animal sanctuary outside North Yorkshire.
The foxes were being fed and had access to water, but police say they need further information as to how they got in the barn, why they were there, and who put them there.
A man has been arrested in connection with this incident, and has been released on police bail as the investigation continues.
These cubs had been taken out of the wild, and will have come from at least four different litters. I am appealing to anyone with any information about these foxes, particularly landowners and the communities of Birdsall, Leavening and Thixendale, to contact me. I also want to hear from anyone who is aware of earth being dug out or vixens being killed, as they could have important information that could assist the investigation.

Shaunie Oneal Answers Back To Kimsha Artest+ Basketball Wives Season 4
Kimsha Artest has recently been in the media speaking about her dislike for Shaunie ever since she was removed from the Basketball Wives LA Season, and Shaunie has finally answered back. Kimsha was first introduced on the first episode but viewers have noticed her obvious removal from the other episodes. Kimsha lashed out at Shaunie claiming her to be fake while removing her but keeping the woman who supposedly slept with her ex husband. There were also rumors that stated there was a confrontational fight between the two which now Shaunie vehemently denies.
During an interview with Madame Noire, Shaunie sets the record straight regarding Kimisha and their alleged fight and also makes it clear that 'Basketball Wives' LA is strictly business and that she had no say in who should be a part of the show and who couldn't be. She also took that time to clear up rumors concerning her causing drama for ratings and dished the dirt on what to expect from Basketball Wives Miami Season 4. READ MORE
Tia and Tamara Had "No Friends" on 'When I Was 17′
Tia and Tamara had a hit television sitcom at the age of 17, fame and fortune, but it also came with a price as the twins discussed not having any friends on their episode of 'When I Was 17â€. Starring in popular sitcom "Sister Sister†although heavily syndicated, the two talk to MTV saying being famous was not good for their social life. "Having a show and going to school was horrible. Really, really bad. We had no friends," the twins say.
The girls' childhood friend Jessica blamed their lack of friends on their busy schedule. "They didn't go to school all the time because they were working on the set, so I'm sure it was difficult for them to form friendships," she explains. But the girls had a different side of the story. If anyone doesn't remember, "Sister, Sister" was about twins who were separated at birth, run into each other in a department store and move in together with their adoptive mom and dad. "I can remember the kids picking on us. They would literally scream at us and say, 'Your show sucks!' "Tamera recalls.
Tia wasn't about to take that lying down. READ MORE
