The Mountain Biking trails at the Life Adventure Center property are closed until further notice. This is to ensure our patron's safety while we remove dead Ash trees from the property. We apologize for any inconvenience.
*Subject to change. To be absolutely sure, call the LAC office at (859)873-3271.
We apologize for the mess, Ash Tree Salvage Logging in process.
A destructive species native to Asia and Eastern Russia, the Emerald Ash Borer Beetle was un-intentionally introduced to the United States in 2002, devastating millions of Ash Trees throughout the region. Unfortunately, The Life Adventure Center's Ash Trees are heavily infested and have suffered a massive "die-back." To prevent risk to our patrons as well as an overwhelming load of dead trees damaging the property we need to selectively log the property's infested trees. Every effort will be employed to reduce disturbance to wildlife and our visitors' experience during logging operations.
Similarly, land restoration efforts will begin immediately following tree removal. Your patience, understanding and support are appreciated during this challenging process of
healing our woodlands!

""CEOs go to their vacation homes just after companies report favorable news, and CEOs return to headquarters right before subsequent news is released. More good news is released when CEOs are back at work, and CEOs appear not to leave headquarters at all if a firm has adverse news to disclose. When CEOs are away from the office, stock prices behave quietly with sharply lower volatility. Volatility increases immediately when CEOs return to work." —David Yermack, a New York University finance professor, whose recently released study shows a correlation between when CEOs take their private jets on vacation and movements in their companies' stock price "
Walter Banks
Walter Banks grew up in the hotel business. When he was about two years old, his father bought and began managing the historic Cavalier Hotel in Virginia Beach, Va. Then in 1960, when Walter was 17, his dad sold that property and purchased Fort Lauderdale's Lago Mar Resort and Club.
The younger Banks worked at the Florida property-everything from helping out at the beach to manning the front desk-during summer vacations from his studies at the University of Miami, where he earned a degree in finance. But his intention was to become a lawyer, not to follow in his father's footsteps.
"Then, in my senior year in college, Hurricane Cleo hit Fort Lauderdale," Banks told us. "That's when I made my decision to go into the hotel business. We'd almost lost the company, and I realized that it meant a lot to me. And my parents had done a lot for me and given me a great education in the hotel business, and I thought I'd take advantage of it.
"It was nice to be able to work with a hotel man who had been successful and had all that experience," he added. "I learned a lot through osmosis, a lot around the dining room table. It would have been a shame to waste that part of my education, which was as important as the degree [from the university]."
Apparently so, because Lago Mar- where Banks became president in 1972-has flourished under his control. Now one of Florida's premier resorts, it has attracted guests from all over the world, as well as the attention of the Ritz-Carlton chain. When we spoke with Banks, he was negotiating a deal to put Lago Mar under the Ritz-Carlton marquee.
Fast Facts
Name: Walter Banks
Age: 64

An engineering intern is either a student or recent graduate in an engineering discipline at a university. As part of a temporary employment agreement, companies hire interns in engineering and place them in departments that typically require engineering degrees and experience. The engineering intern then works alongside regular engineering employees to learn about their day-to-day job responsibilities, and assists them on a variety of projects and tasks as the senior engineers and supervisors see fit.Read More...
Normally this relationship has a twofold benefit for those involved: Companies are able to perform long-term recruitment of the brightest students in engineering at colleges and universities. They may enlist student interns for summer work and then invite them back on subsequent summers before deciding to extend a job offer upon graduation. Recent graduates may work as an engineering intern for a year before a company decides whether or not to hire them full time. Interns get to learn about the company and determine whether they would want to work with the company as a future employer. Interns are also able to get a good grasp on how their studies are applied to the field itself, which can assist them in school with cognition and retention.
The engineering intern will normally perform a variety of tasks, many of which may be administrative in nature: they will often assist with documentation and organization. They will help facilitate the completions of projects they're assigned to, and will perform job duties and give progress updates as needed. In civil engineering, the intern may do computer-related diagramming or drawing of non-mission-critical components. In other engineering disciplines, they may work in computer coding, statistical analysis or some combination of those duties.
The engineering intern will normally work regular business hours. He or she will generally be required to be majoring in or a recent graduate of an engineering program at a four-year university. Internships can be competitive, and any extracurricular or relevant job experience related to one's engineering studies can help to set one's application apart.
Add this chart to your site: 640px 300px
Engineering Interns who go on to become Software Engineers may see their salaries climb quite a bit. Median pay for Software Engineers is $76K annually. The most common next step for an Engineering Intern is to become a Mechanical Engineer or an Electrical Engineer. The former position pays an additional $26K per year on average, and the latter position pays $30K more per year.
Engineering Interns seem to exploit a large range of skills on the job. Most notably, facility with C, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and Java are correlated to pay that is significantly above average, leading to increases of 33 percent, 16 percent, and 12 percent, respectively. At the other end of the pay range are skills like SolidWorks, Computer Aided Drafting & Design, and Pro/Engineer. Most people experienced in Microsoft Office also know Engineering Design. Those educated in Microsoft Excel tend to be well versed in AutoCAD and Engineering Design.
Los Angeles is home to an above-average pay rate for Engineering Interns, 31 percent higher than the national average. Engineering Interns will also find cushy salaries in Houston (+17 percent), Cincinnati (+11 percent), San Jose (+11 percent), and New York (+10 percent). Philadelphia is the lowest-paying area, 14 percent south of the national average. Two other places where employers offer below-median salaries are San Francisco (14 percent less) and Boston (13 percent less).

Police Limit Comic: April 18, 2010
Police Limit Comic is a politically-motivated, pro-law enforcement comic strip, topical in its writing and unapologetically blunt
Police Limit Comic is published on PoliceOne every Sunday. For more than a decade, the strip's cast of unnamed characters has been constantly struggling with stresses, not only from the criminal element on the street, but also from the upper echelons of the police department's top brass, clueless judges, and the liberal media.

Action Film BULLET, Starring Danny Trejo Begins Production
Giant Ape Media, in partnership with SC Films International and American United Media is excited to announce that production on BULLET, an upcoming feature length motion picture starring DANNY TREJO (MACHETE), has begun. This fast paced action picture finds hardened detective Frank Marasco battling to bring down a deadly criminal gang. While facing off with his nemesis, ruthless cartel leader Carlito Kane, he unravels a deadly plot that could destroy his family in a race against time. BULLET, directed by Nick Lyon (Species: The Awakening, Punk Love) is based on a screenplay written by Nick Lyon, Ron Peer and Byron Lester.
The film also stars Jonathan Banks (Breaking Bad) as CARLITO KANE and JULIA DIETZE (Iron Sky) as provocative cartel attorney BROOKE MADISON who walks a fine line of legal ethics.
"Danny Trejo and Jonathan Banks onscreen appeal will definitely captivate audiences of this genre," said Gen Fukunaga, President and CEO of Giant Ape Media. "We're excited to add this film to our diverse slate of releases already in production."
Simon Crowe of SC Films said, "This is an intelligent, fast paced action script that is thoroughly entertaining, in the spirit of Die Hard meets Taken, Its top notch cast will appeal to worldwide distributors and audiences alike."
"I am thrilled to be working with Danny Trejo on Bullet," said Robert Rodriguez, Managing Director of American United Media. "The goal is to bring a top-notch action movie to life by creating a film that combines an ever-thickening plot with intense dialogue and stand out characters. The opportunity to be working on Bullet is very exciting."
The film is produced by Matthew Joynes and Robert Rodriguez, Co-Produced by April Bennett and Executive Produced by Gen Fukunaga and Chris Moujaes and is scheduled for a late 2013 release.

29 year old man | Evanston, IL, USA | Seeking women 25-30 in Chicago, Illinois, United States
I'm at least a soft six!
Like many gents, I still haven't found the right girl yet. So, I figured it couldn't hurt to give into the weird aura of the internet and give online dating a go. I'm sure you've read through more than enough profiles and seen countless selfies, so here are some quick things about me: 1. I don't take myself too seriously and have a dry sense of humor (tasteful of course!). 2. My childhood aspiration was to become a pirate. You know, sailing the high seas, searching for buried treasure, swashbuckling, etc. My revised aspiration is to keep exploring, so not too far off from the original. I'm hoping to collect as many awesome memories and stories as possible by the time I'm a crotchety, old man in a rocking chair. 3. I love adventures: Anything from long backpacking hikes to wandering new cities, to even just finding a new bar in town. My favorites so far have been hiking the Inca Trail last summer and living out of a backpack in New Zealand for three weeks when I was sixteen. 4. Craziest thing I've ever done: Bungee jumping even though I am terrified of heights. 5. I'm in my second year of business school and trying to make the most of it before starting work in Chicago this July. 6. My friends unanimously voted that my power animal (animal that best represents me) is a tree frog. I protested that I was a fox, but was overruled. 7. I'm very close with my family and enjoy going on adventures with my brother (please do ask for good stories, I have many), visit my older sister on the west coast, and bother my younger sister and parents on the east coast during the holidays. 8. I am a good listener and enjoy sharing stories. Who am I hoping to find? Well, if you are still reading, this is a little about the girl I'd like to meet: I hope you are smarter than I am (not too difficult). I'd like to have many conversations with you about nothing but exchanging banter for the fun of it. I hope you are ambitious and excited to make a great career for yourself. You like adventures and mixing things up once in a while as routines get quite boring. You are creative and can find ways to have fun regardless of the situation. A great smile and a friendly attitude go a long way too. I will be keeping a look out, but if this sounds like you it would be great to hear from you!

For the 2013 season, the Redskins appear to be set at linebacker. Brian Orakpo should be back from the torn pectoral muscle he suffered in the second game of last year. London Fletcher is having some surgical work done and he plans on being back for his 16th NFL season. Perry Riley and Ryan Kerrigan both played nearly every snap of every game last year and should be in for the same this year. Top outside linebacker reserve Rob Jackson will be back after serving a four-game suspension to start the season.
The position doesn't appear on many of the hundreds, perhaps thousands, of draft "needs" lists that are floating around the Internet and various print publications. But when you take a closer look and consider that the NFL draft is more about shoring up your team for two or three years from now than it is for this year, it would not be surprising to see the Redskins draft one or two linebackers this year.
Out of the five top linebackers noted above, four are slated to be unrestricted free agents next year. Only Kerrigan is signed past 2013, who has two years left on his rookie contract. The only identified successor is Keenan Robinson, who is Fletcher's heir apparent. Robinson got 69 snaps on defense last year and he played fairly well. But it's a big leap from there to playing over 1000 snaps at the most important position in the Redskins' 3-4 defense.
Even if Robinson can successfully take over for Fletcher there is the matter of the other inside linebacker spot to be considered. Riley will be 25 next month and a free agent next year. Per the evaluations of the folks at Pro Football Focus, Riley had a better year than Fletcher did in 2012.
There doesn't appear to be a successor to Riley on the roster as of now. He certainly is on the list of players who will be priorities to re-sign next spring, when the team will have some cap room to work with. But it would not be surprising to see the Redskins draft an inside linebacker. That player could be groomed to replace Riley if he doesn't return, to compete with Robinson for Fletcher's spot (assuming he retires, not a certainty at this point), or to provide depth.
The good thing is that 3-4 inside linebackers can be found in the middle rounds of the draft. Riley and Robinson were both 4th-round picks. Like Riley, who sat for a season and a half before entering the starting lineup, there is an apprenticeship to be served but the position can be taught.
Orakpo will turn 27 during training camp and he is very much at a career crossroads. He is spending his second consecutive offseason rehabbing his left pectoral muscle. Although he has provided a steady pass rush he has yet to break through for the monster season that everyone thinks he's capable of producing.
On one extreme, Orakpo could have a bad season, maybe missing some games with injuries, and end up with six or eight sacks. On the other he could break out and post 15 sacks and have opposing offensive coordinators spending sleepless nights trying to figure out how to contain him.
A big season would make him one of the prized free agents on next year's market and the Redskins would either give him a lucrative long-term contract or if they couldn't negotiate such a deal, give him the franchise tag. The Redskins probably would want him back even if he had an off year but for fewer years and less money, particularly if injuries are at the root of a mediocre season. But Orakpo could decide that he'd rather start fresh elsewhere.
Jackson, who played well filing in for Orakpo when he was out last year, came back on a one-year contract. He is 27 could be a long-term solution if things don't work with Orakpo. The team just signed Darryl Tapp as a reserve pass rusher but it is unlikely that he is the answer if there is the need for an outside linebacker starter.
They could look at an outside linebacker in the draft who could be a longer-term solution should the Redskins find themselves without Jackson and Orakpo a year from now. They might have to get lucky as strong pass rushers are usually gone after the first couple of rounds and, with their more immediate secondary needs, the Redskins might not have the luxury of making an outside linebacker insurance pick this year.
If the Redskins can get Orakpo and Riley back on long-term contracts and Robinson can replace Fletcher when the time comes, they'll be in pretty good shape with the ability to draft the best available players to groom as eventual successors. The team would have control of the situation for the next several years.
That is the optimal situation. The worst case would be Orakpo and Riley leaving as free agents and Fletcher retiring. That would have the Redskins rebuilding three fourths of their linebacking corps from scratch.

By Monday night, the Orioles hadn't announced their starting pitcher for this afternoon's series finale against the Detroit Tigers.
Now we know why.
The Orioles will recall right-handed pitching prospect Kevin Gausman to start the 12:35 p.m. game at Camden Yards, the club announced Tuesday. After Tuesday's game, the Orioles optioned right-hander Preston Guilmet to Triple-A Norfolk to clear a roster spot.

Gausman was informed of his call-up when Norfolk was making its connecting flight in Atlanta after a road trip in Indianapolis, and he drove to Baltimore after arriving in Virginia.
It's unclear how long Gausman will remain with the club, but his call-up is another twist in what has been an up-and down season for the Orioles' 2012 first-round pick.
Gausman, 23, kept opponents off the board for three of his first five starts for Norfolk, compiling an 0-1 record and a 2.53 ERA, before he woke up last month with a pain in his chest. He said doctors told him it could have been a fractured rib or an intercostal strain, making him the unlikely patient who welcomed his eventual pneumonia diagnosis.
"When the doctor told me, I was happy," Gausman said. "He was like, 'That's probably the first time anyone has every been happy to have that.'"
Gausman returned from the disabled list Saturday to lower his season ERA to 2.08 with 4 2/3 scoreless innings against Indianapolis. He allowed two hits and three walks while striking out six batters.
Gausman said he feels good about his pitches now, but he said the season has been uneven for him from the start.
"It's been kind of crazy," Gausman said. "I started off the season sick, and had to grind through two starts where I wasn't feeling very good, but that's just part of baseball, especially being a starting pitcher."
Gausman was 3-5 with a 5.66 ERA in 20 appearances with the Orioles last season, including 0-3 with a 7.66 ERA in five starts. In his third start last year, Gausman allowed one run, five hits and no walks in six innings in a no-decision against the Tigers on June 2.
Gausman said he would draw from that experience, but he said he also would have to prepare for the new faces in the Tigers lineup.
"It's a completely different lineup than what they had last year," Gausman said. "I think [Prince] Fielder was kind of a big part of that lineup, obviously, but [Ian] Kinsler is obviously a great hitter, too. I've never pitched against him, so I'm going to kind of do my research."
Gausman has been on a pitch limit with Norfolk, and he will start on three days' rest today, but he said he feels as if he could throw 90 to 100 pitches in the game.
Manager Buck Showalter said the game situation and not the number of pitches Gausman throws will dictate the length of his start.
Left-hander Wei-Yin Chen, who originally was scheduled to pitch today, will start the series opener Thursday night on the road against the Kansas City Royals.
This season, heading into Tuesday, the Tigers are the best-hitting team in the American League against left-handers (.293 batting average, with the second-highest on-base-plus slugging percentage at .809), while the Royals have the second-worst OPS versus lefties (.624) in the league.
Additionally, Chen has pitched much better in his career with five days' rest (3.97 ERA) than with four days' rest (4.47).
Gonzalez to bullpen, at least for now
The rotation changes have pushed right-hander Miguel Gonzalez to the bullpen, at least temporarily.

Growing up in Philadelphia in 1975, 14-year-old Charmaine Upshaw is obsessed with justice. Unfortunately, she gets none of it in her life: not from her parents, who make her share a room with her tap-dancing brother Leo; not at school, where light-skinned, Barbie-doll-haired Dinah Coverdale steals all the boys' attention and makes sure dark-skinned Charmaine knows it; and certainly not from Tracy John, her six-year-old cousin who's taken over the family. When Charmaine is charged with babysitting her spoiled cousin after school, that's the last straw–something's gotta give. And when Charmaine cracks, she starts to see the world in a whole new light. Can Charmaine learn to love herself, her mahogany skin, and her attention-starved little cousin? Sometimes when everything falls apart, putting it back together can help you see the truth.From the Hardcover edition.
"Charmaine is an appealing character, intelligent but capable of bad choices, and Tracy John is similarly realistic; their slowly evolving affection makes for a feel-good read."—BooklistFrom the Trade Paperback edition.

Otters swing past Miners 12-5
MARION, Ill. - The Evansville Otters came out swinging Friday night, producing three big innings in a 12-5 win over the Southern Illinois Miners to salvage a game at Rent One Park in Marion, Ill. The win also gave Evansville the season series, 5-4.
The 12 runs are a season high for Evansville (30-35).
The Otters took a 3-0 lead in the top of the second when Steve Marino made Southern Illinois starter Matt Crim — a former Otters pitcher — pay for walking John Nester and Jimmy Maxwell when he hit a home run. The Miners bounced right back in the bottom half, scoring four runs on five consecutive hits.
But after falling behind 5-3, the Otters responded with four runs in the fourth and five in the eighth.
After starter Michael Hepple lasted just 2.2 innings, Evansville's bullpen stepped up. Pitcher Scott Weismann threw a season-high 3.2 scoreless innings and reliever Evan Mott got out of a bases-loaded no-out jam in the seventh. Evansville then put the game away with the five-run eighth inning.
Hepple has pitched for three Frontier League teams this season, including Washington and Southern Illinois.
Marino finished 3 for 5 with the three RBI while scoring twice. Ryan Kresky drove in three runs with two hits.
The Otters, who will host Florence in a doubleheader today at Bosse Field beginning at 4:35 p.m., are 8-4 in twin bills this season. They split with Lake Erie on Monday, losing 4-1 and winning 5-4.

Water Bagels
|Active dry yeast
|1⁄4 Ounce (1 Package)
|Warm water
|1 1⁄2 Cup (24 tbs) (At 110 F)
|2 Tablespoon
|3⁄4 Tablespoon
|High gluten white bread flour
|4 Cup (64 tbs)
|For water bath
|2 Quart
|1 Tablespoon
Sprinkle yeast into warm water in a large bowl and stir gently. Let stand 3 to 5 minutes. Add sugar and continue to stir until dissolved. Mix in salt and flour. Work the dough with your hands, kneading until a stiff dough is formed.
Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead until smooth. Shape dough into a ball and place in an ungreased bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
Bring Water Bath ingredients to a boil in a large pot. Preheat oven to 450° F. Meanwhile, punch dough down and divide into 10 equal portions. Form into the shape of doughnuts with an elongated center hole about 1 inch across. (An easy method is to make a flat round, then poke a hole in center with fingers.) Do not make bagels too rounded in height as they will puff up further when baked.
When water comes to a boil, turn heat off. As boiling subsides, slip a few bagels in. Cook for 20 seconds on each side. Immediately lift bagels from water using a slotted spoon. Drain briefly on paper towels. Repeat for remaining bagels.
If sesame or poppy seed bagels are desired, spread seeds on a plate and press one or both sides of bagel into seeds after draining. Place bagels on two greased cookie sheets.
Bake for 10 to 15 minutes. Turn bagels with a spatula and bake another 10 to 15 minutes.

|Criterion A
|The former Adelaide Steamship Company Ltd Building is important in contributing to our understanding of the evolution of Cairns as the major port of Far North Queensland in the early 20th century.
|Criterion B
|It is significant as a rare example of an Arts and Crafts building in Cairns, which has been particularly designed to accommodate the tropical climate.
|Criterion D
|It is significant as a rare example of an Arts and Crafts building in Cairns, which has been particularly designed to accommodate the tropical climate.
|Criterion E
|The place exhibits a range of aesthetic characteristics valued by the Cairns community, in particular: the scale, form, materials and composition of architectural elements, designed in the newly developed Arts and Craft manner established in Europe and appropriately adapted to the Cairns tropical climate; and the contribution to the streetscapes of Lake and Spence streets and to the Cairns townscape.
|Criterion H
|The place has a special association with the Adelaide Steamship Company Ltd, which made a major contribution to the economic development of Far North Queensland in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
|This single-storeyed masonry building was erected in 1910 for the Adelaide Steamship Company Limited, as their new Cairns offices. The Adelaide Steamship Company Ltd, established in Adelaide in 1875, entered the Queensland coastal trade in 1893 with a weekly service to Brisbane. By 1895 it had established an agency in Cairns, which was emerging as a major port servicing Far North Queensland's developing mineral, pastoral and sugar industries. About 1905, the company established a branch in Cairns, possibly in rented premises. The present site was acquired in 1907 by James Harvey, chairman of the Adelaide Steamship Co Ltd from 1888 to 1915. In 1909, Cairns architect Harvey G Draper handled the tendering process for the company's new offices in Cairns, but it is not clear whether he carried out the design. The building was designed in the newly developed Arts and Crafts manner, established in Europe and adapted to the Cairns tropical climate. The building was erected during 1910 by Cairns contractors Wilson & Baillie, at a cost of £2,970, and was opened on 12 December 1910. Its location, at the corner of Lake and Spence Streets, boosted commercial development along Spence Street. The new offices were constructed towards the end of a buoyant economic period when the principal Australian shipping companies - the Adelaide Steamship Company Ltd, the Australian United Steam Navigation Co. Ltd [Burns, Philp & Company Ltd] and the Howard Smith Company Ltd - vied for the lucrative Queensland coastal trade in passengers and cargo. Their construction reflected the Adelaide Steamship Company Ltd's growing importance to the economic prosperity of North Queensland, in particular the Cairns region, through its involvement in the sugar, coal and passenger trade. The Adelaide Steamship Co. Ltd sold the building in 1964. In 1976 it was purchased by the present owners. Some of the concrete balustrading on the verandahs, and an office on the street corner of the building have been removed, and some timber windows have been removed or relocated.
|The former Adelaide Steam Ship building is a single-storeyed rough-rendered masonry structure, located on the corner of Lake and Spence Street at the southwestern edge of the Cairns Central business district. It reflects a strong Arts and Crafts influence in its design and detailing. The building has a corrugated iron roof with shaped end gables and sprocketted eaves, which are supported by curved metal brackets and pierced by tapering piers with shallow ogee shaped gablets above. The corner and end piers are surmounted by spheres. The building has arcaded verandahs to both street frontages, consisting of five bays to Lake Street and three to Spence Street, with large rounded fabric awnings attached. There is a shallow ogee shaped central gable to Lake Street, which originally surmounted the entry but now houses a recessed window, with the words THE ADELAIDE STEAMSHIP CO LTD in relief and a sculpture of one of their vessels above. Sections of concave solid balustrade have been removed to provide access to a relocated corner entry, and end bays have timber framed casement windows. The Spence Street facade culminates with a wall return housing a keyhole shape gateway with scroll detail above, and a service drive with gates beside. A toilet block and carport are located at the rear. Internally, the building has been refurbished.

Control Systems/Estimators and Observers
Estimators and Observers[edit]
A problem arises in which the internal states of many systems cannot be directly observed, and therefore state feedback is not possible. What we can do is try to design a separate system, known as an observer or an estimator that attempts to duplicate the values of the state vector of the plant, except in a way that is observable for use in state feedback. Some literature calls these components "observers", although they do not strictly observe the state directly. Instead, these devices use mathematical relations to try and determine an estimate of the state. Therefore, we will use the term "estimator", although the terms may be used interchangeably.
Creating an Estimator[edit]
Notice that we know the A, B, C, and D matrices of our plant, so we can use these exact values in our estimator. We know the input to the system, we know the output of the system, and we have the system matrices of the system. What we do not know, necessarily, are the initial conditions of the plant. What the estimator tries to do is make the estimated state vector approach the actual state vector quickly, and then mirror the actual state vector. We do this using the following system for an observer:
L is a matrix that we define that will help drive the error to zero, and therefore drive the estimate to the actual value of the state. We do this by taking the difference between the plant output and the estimator output.
In order to make the estimator state approach the plant state, we need to define a new additional state vector called state error signal . We define this error signal as:
and its derivative:
We can show that the error signal will satisfy the following relationship:
We know that if the eigenvalues of the matrix (A + LC) all have negative real parts that:
- when .
This means that the difference between the state of the plant and the estimated state of the observer tends to fade as time approaches infinity.
Separation Principle[edit]
We have two equations:
We can combine them into a single system of equations to represent the entire system:
We can find the characteristic equation easily using the separation principle. We take the Z-Transform of this digital system, and take the determinant of the coefficient matrix to find the characteristic equation. The characteristic equation of the whole system is: (remember the well known )
Notice that the determinant of the large matrix can be broken down into the product of two smaller determinants. The first determinant is clearly the characteristic equation of the estimator, and the second is clearly the characteristic equation of the plant. Notice also that we can design the L and K matrices independently of one another.
It is worth mentioning that if the order of the system is n, this characteristic equation (full-order state observer plus original system) becomes of order 2n and so has twice the number of roots of the original system.
The L Matrix[edit]
You should select the L matrix in such a way that the error signal is driven towards zero as quickly as possible. The transient response of the estimator, that is the amount of time it takes the error to approximately reach zero, should be significantly shorter than the transient response of the plant. The poles of the estimator should be, by rule of thumb, at least 2-6 times faster then the poles of your plant. As we know from our study of classical controls, to make a pole faster we need to:
- S-Domain
- Move them further away from the imaginary axis (in the Left Half Plane!).
- Z-Domain
- Move them closer to the origin.
Notice that in these situations, the faster poles of the estimator will have less effect on the system, and we say that the plant poles dominate the response of the system.
Where Q is the observability matrix of the plant, and αe is the characteristic equation of your estimator.
This can be computed in MATLAB with the following command:
L=acker(A', C', K)';
where L is the estimator gain and k is the poles for the estimator.
Composite System[edit]
Once we have our L and K matrices, we can put these together into a single composite system equation for the case of state-feedback and zero input:
Taking the Z-Transform of this discrete system and solving for an input-output relation gives us:
Notice that this is not the same as the transfer function, because the input is on top of the fraction and the output is on bottom. To get the transfer function from this equation we need to take the inverse of both sides. The determinant of this inverse will then be the characteristic equation of the composite system.
Notice that this equation gives us the ability to derive the system input that created the particular output. This will be valuable later.
Ackerman's Formula[edit]
Consider a linear feedback system with no reference input:
where K is a vector of gain elements. Systems of this form are typically referred to as regulators. Notice that this system is a simplified version of the one we introduced above, except that we are ignoring the reference input. Substituting this into the state equation gives us:
Ackerman's Formula gives us a way to select these gain values K in order to control the location's of the system poles. Using Ackerman's formula, if the system is controllable, we can select arbitrary poles for our regulator system.
[Ackerman's Formula]
where a(z) is the desired characteristic equation of the system and ζ is the controllability matrix of the original system. The goal of this type of regulator is to drive the state vector to zero. By using a reference input instead of a linear state feedback, we can use the same kind of idea to drive the state vector to any arbitrary state, and to give the system arbitrary poles.
Reference Inputs[edit]
The idea of the system above with a linear feedback and no reference input is to drive the system state vector to zero. If we have a system reference input r, we can define a vector N that is the desired value for our state. This combined input is equal to:
where xr is the reference state we want our state x to reach. Here is a block diagram of a system that uses this kind of state reference:
We have our gain matrix, K, and our reference input rN. Mathematically, we can show that:
In this system, assuming the system is type 1 or higher, we can prove that
The state will approach the reference state as time approaches infinity.
The Reference Input is calculated in the continuous domain using the below equations:
Reduced-Order Observers[edit]
In many systems, at least one state variable can be either measured directly, or calculated easily from the output. This can happen in the case where the C matrix has only a single non-zero entry per system output.
If one or more state variables can be measured or observed directly, the system only requires a reduced-order observer, that is an observer that has a lower order than the plant. The reduced order observer can estimate the unmeasurable states, and a direct feedback path can be used to obtain the measured state values.

Duke Nukem developer 3D Realms shut down
Games developer 3D Realms, the creator of Duke Nukem, Prey and Wolfenstein 3D, has been closed down because of a lack of funds.
In news not being greeted by shock in the industry, the veteran developer's main project - Duke Nukem Forever - has spent the last 12 years in development limbo.
Announced over 10 years ago in 1997, the rights to Duke Nukem Forever are owned by games publisher Take Two, that says it will not fund more development time, although it is retaining the rights.
Apogee Software's separate plans for "Duke Nukem Trilogy" for the Sony PSP are unaffected by 3D Realm's closure.

This release is available in Spanish.
TECNALIA Technological Corporation is studying an innovative method based on multispectral artificial vision systems to enhance the value of electronic scrap which currently represent 4% of urban waste in Europe.
The aim of this project, known as SORMEN, is to develop a technology for the separation of scrap metal from electronic waste based on a system of multispectral vision and incorporate it into the process of a recycling plant. This new machine overcomes the limitations of current, basically manual, methods which consume a large amount of manual labour and time and which are unable to separate metals whose characteristics of colour, shape and weight are similar.
The solution proposed by TECNALIA enables the separating of elements of the same colour - such as aluminium, nickel or stainless steel -, employing the recycling of these materials to the full. It represents a highly significant advance over other techniques of separation based on colour vision and useful for other processes such as separating lead impurities, from copper for example. In the case of aluminium, for example, the system designed by TECNALIA will enable the recovery of between 30 and 40% more of this metal.
Currently Europe generates more than 6.5 million tons of electrical and electronic waste per year, of which more than 90% goes to waste dumps.
One of the current problems facing the correct recycling of electronic scrap waste is that it contains many different materials that cannot be separated with current technology. Dismantling electronic equipment requires manual tasks, making the process labour-intensive and very costly. For example, with television sets, only the cathode-ray tubes are dismantled while the rest is crushed up. With other equipment, only the larger parts made of aluminium, copper or i

Article: The H1N1 Crisis: A Case Study of the Integration of Mental and Behavioral Health in Public Health Crises[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In substantial numbers of affected populations, disasters adversely affect well-being and influence the development of emotional problems and dysfunctional behaviors. Nowhere is the integration of mental and behavioral health into broader public health and medical preparedness and response activities more crucial than in disasters such as the 2009-2010 H1N1 influenza pandemic. The National Biodefense Science Board, recognizing that the mental and behavioral health responses to H1N1 were vital to preserving safety and health for the country, requested that the Disaster Mental Health Subcommittee recommend actions for public health officials to prevent and mitigate adverse behavioral health outcomes during the H1N1 pandemic. The subcommittee's recommendations emphasized vulnerable populations and concentrated on interventions, education and training, and communication and messaging. The subcommittee's H1N1 activities and recommendations provide an approach and template for identifying and addressing future efforts related to newly emerging public health and medical emergencies. The many emotional and behavioral health implications of the crisis and the importance of psychological factors in determining the behavior of members of the public argue for a programmatic integration of behavioral health and science expertise in a comprehensive public health response.Disaster Medicine and Public Health Preparedness 03/2012; 6(1):67-71.

Article: The Integration of Mental and Behavioral Health Into Disaster Preparedness, Response, and Recovery[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The close interplay between mental health and physical health makes it critical to integrate mental and behavioral health considerations into all aspects of public health and medical disaster management. Therefore, the National Biodefense Science Board (NBSB) convened the Disaster Mental Health Subcommittee to assess the progress of the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) in integrating mental and behavioral health into disaster and emergency preparedness and response activities. One vital opportunity to improve integration is the development of clear and directive national policy to firmly establish the role of mental and behavioral health as part of a unified public health and medical response to disasters. Integration of mental and behavioral health into disaster preparedness, response, and recovery requires it to be incorporated in assessments and services, addressed in education and training, and founded on and advanced through research. Integration must be supported in underlying policies and administration with clear lines of responsibility for formulating and implementing policy and practice.Disaster Medicine and Public Health Preparedness 03/2012; 6(1):60-6.

Swear I'd never love another if this really worked out
But this is just like watching fitness informercials from the couch
I know, you're lazy
from Jean Grae – U&Me&EveryoneWeKnow Lyrics on Genius
A play on "worked out". Watching people exercise but not doing it yourself is another, non-relationship-based form of "not working out". The "lazy" language continues this idea into the next series of lines
