› Find signed collectible books: 'The Enchanted Quest of Dana and Ginger Lamb'
Best-selling authors, sensational lecturers, documentary filmmakers, amateur archaeologists, spies for FDR--Dana and Ginger Lamb led the life of Indiana Jones long before the movie icon was ever scripted. "We blaze the trail," Ginger said, "and the scientists follow."
The Enchanted Quest of Dana and Ginger Lamb is the first biography of this captivating, entrepreneurial couple. In Southern California, they started married life in 1933 by building a canoe. With only $4.10 in their pockets, they paddled to Central America and through the Panama Canal. Three years later they returned triumphant, bearing a photographic record of the amazing trek that made them famous.
After releasing their best-selling book, Enchanted Vagabonds, the two became exactly that. They relentlessly lectured for the public and mooned for the media until they were able to fund more exotic voyages to remote jungles and rivers. So convincing were they on the circuit that their most powerful fan, President Franklin Roosevelt, coerced J. Edgar Hoover into hiring the Lambs as spies in Mexico. After World War II they launched their Quest for the Lost City, which yielded another book and documentary.
Drawing on historical records, the Lambs' books and letters, and recently declassified espionage documents, biographers Julie Huffman-klinkowitz and Jerome Klinkowitz show how the Lambs succeeded in marketing their conquests and films to armchair explorers around the world and how they became, in popular imagination, the quintessential American adventurers.
As an independent scholar, Julie Huffman-klinkowitz has published widely in genealogy and popular culture. Jerome Klinkowitz is professor of English at the University of Northern Iowa and is the author of several books, including Pacific Skies: American Flyers in World War II (University Press of Mississippi).

› Find signed collectible books: 'Kurt Vonnegut's America'
Kurt Vonnegut's death on April 11, 2007, marked the passing of a major force in American life and letters. Jerome Klinkowitz, one of the earliest and most prolific authorities on Vonnegut, examines the long dialogue between the author and American culture--a conversation that produced fourteen novels and hundreds of short stories and essays. Spanning Vonnegut's half-century literary career, Kurt Vonnegut's America integrates discussion of myriad fiction, essays, and lectures with personal exchanges and biographical sketches to map the complex symbiotic relationship between Vonnegut's work and the cultural context from which it emerged--and which it in turn helped shape.
Following an introduction characterizing Vonnegut as Klinkowitz came to know him over the course of their friendship, this study traces Vonnegut's career, decade by decade, drawing connections between the nation's preoccupations, the author's biography, and his literary productions. Vonnegut's 1950s saw him starting out as a short story writer, using his training in anthropology and experience in journalism and public relations to offer comic insights on middle-class behaviors. In the 1960s the author produced a series of darkly humorous novels rooted in the sense of apocalypse he'd experienced as a prisoner of war during the destruction of Dresden, Germany. Vonnegut's rising fame made him a public figure by 1970, with his novels and increasingly prominent essays serving as commentaries on the trends and patterns of these changing times. By the 1980s Vonnegut was sufficiently comfortable with his celebrity status to offer broader perspectives in his work, including his take on human evolution and artistic development. The 1990s found Vonnegut writing the strongest fiction and commentary of his career, melding them into a masterpiece, Timequake, the virtual autobiography of a novel.
Among his artistic peers, Vonnegut was uniquely gifted at anticipating and articulating the changing course of American culture. Far from being A Man without a Country, as his last book was titled, Vonnegut achieved greatness by passing his own test--opening the eyes of his audience to help them better understand their roles and possibilities in the common culture they both shared and crafted.

From 1941 to 1945 the skies over the Pacific Ocean afforded the broadest arena for battle and the fiercest action of air combat during World War II. It was in the air above the Pacific that America's involvement in the war began. It was in these skies that air power launched from carriers became a new form of engagement and where the war ultimately ended with kamikaze attacks and with atomic bombs dropped over Japan.
Throughout the conflict American flyers felt a compelling call to supplement the official news and military reports. In vivid accounts written soon after combat and in reflective memoirs recorded in the years after peace came, both pilots and crew members detailed their stories of the action that occurred in the embattled skies. Their first-person testimonies describe a style of warfare invented at the moment of need and at a time when the outcome was anything but certain.
Gathering more than a hundred personal narratives from Americans and from Japanese, Pacific Skies recounts a history of air combat in the Pacific theater. Included are the words of such famous aces and bomber pilots as Joe Foss, Pappy Boyington, Dick Bong, and Curtis Lemay, as well as the words of many rank-and-file airmen. Together their stories express fierce individualism and resourcefulness and convey the vast panorama of war that included the skies over Pearl Harbor, Wake, and Guadalcanal and missions from Saipan and Tinian.
As Pacific Skies recounts the perilous lives of pilots in their own words, Jerome Klinkowitz weaves the individual stories into a gripping historical narrative that exposes the shades of truth and fiction that can become blurred over time. A book about experiencing and remembering, Pacific Skies also is a story of unique perspectives on the war.
Jerome Klinkowitz, a professor of English at the University of Northern Iowa, is the author of forty books, including such World War II titles as Their Finest Hours, Yanks over Europe, and With Tigers over China.

In 1966, Peter Handke disturbed the world of German letters with the publication of his first novel and with his attacks on the complacency of German-language writers and their audiences. Since then, Handkean Austrian whose works include drama, poetry, and critical theory as well as fictionhas become a leading European figure in the internationally established postmodern movement.
Klinkowitz and Knowlton survey Handkes progress as a writer, concentrating on his novels, to determine whether his creativity has been exhausted by his persistent assault on the systems that underlie conventional fiction, drama, and poetry. By placing Handkes work in the tradition of Gabriel García Márquezs magic realism and Donald Barthelmes innovative fictions, the authors demonstrate that postmodern writers can create works of art in which content is effaced and the process of composition assumes increasing importance. Indeed, in so doing, Handke has made that process as humanly interesting and as fictionally dramatic as any stories of The Great Tradition: he has learned to address the human condition within the limits of a rebellious aesthetic. The lesson of the postmodern transformation, Klinkowitz and Knowlton argue, is that the abstraction of content is not a loss; instead, it leads directly to the most essential human concerns.

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Vonnegut Effect'
Kurt Vonnegut is one of the few American writers since Mark Twain to have won and sustained a great popular acceptance while boldly introducing new themes and forms on the literary cutting edge. This is the "Vonnegut effect" that Jerome Klinkowitz finds unique among postmodern authors. In this definitive study of the author's fiction, Klinkowitz examines the forces in American life that have made Vonnegut's works possible - some would say necessary. Born in 1922 and still writing trenchantly more than 80 years later, Vonnegut shares with readers a world that includes the Great Depression, during which his family lost their economic support; the Second World War, in which he was captured at the Battle of the Bulge and experienced the firebombing of Dresden; the corporate surge of postwar America, which he abetted as a publicist for General Electric's Research Laboratory, where "Progress Is Our Most Important Product"; the entrepreneurship of the 1950s, which he participated in when he ran a Saab automobile dealership and operated a short-story business, selling to the era's family magazines; and the counter-cultural revolt of the 1960s, during which his fiction first gained prominence. Vonnegut also takes us through the growth in recent decades of America's sway in art, which his fiction celebrates, and geopolitics, which his novels question. A pioneer in Vonnegut studies, publishing in the field since 1969, Jerome Klinkowitz offers "The Vonnegut Effect" as a thorough treatment of the author's fiction - a canon covering more than a half century and compromising 20 books. Considering both Vonnegut's methods and the cultural needs they have served, Klinkowitz explains how those works came to be written and concludes with an assessment of the author's place in the tradition of American fiction.

In this volume, Jerome Klinkowitz traces the emergence of Vonnegut's nonfiction since the 1960s, when commentary and feature journalism replaced his rapidly dying short-story market. Offering close readings and insightful criticism of Vonnegut's three major works of nonfiction, his many uncollected pieces, and his unique manner of public speaking, Klinkowitz explains how Vonnegut's personal visions developed into a style of great public responsibility that mirrored the growth of his fiction. The investigation of the writer's extensive nonfiction provides a key to understanding his distinctively inventive novels and the manner in which his public spokesmanship influenced his artistic expression.

› Find signed collectible books: 'With the Tigers over China, 1941-1942'
In the twelve months centered around the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, a diverse group of American and British flyers fought one of the most remarkable air campaigns of WWII. Pilots including Claire Chennault, "Pappy" Boyington, and Art Donahue bought time for an Allied regrouping against Japan's relentless assault in the China-Burma-India theater. In the face of the 1941 bombings, Chiang Kai-shek turned to air power to survive, which he did thanks to Chennault's rebuilding of the Chinese Air Force and the leadership of the American Volunteer Group, or AVG.
Formed by Chennault, the AVG, also known as the Flying Tigers, were contract employees working for the Chinese government. As a result, they received virtually no official American recognition for their efforts. The group was known for their romantic, reckless spirit. They performed remarkably with outdated planes and equipment in ill-repair, were almost always heavily outnumbered in battle, and were seen by outsiders as hard-drinking rebels.
Whatever their image, the Flying Tigers were highly effective. In the words of Air Force Major General Charlie Bond, "During that first week of action the AVG destroyed fifty-five enemy bombers and fighters while losing only five Tomahawks. Unfortunately, two of our colleagues were killed, but at the same time two hundred enemy airmen were either killed or captured. We were shattering the myth that the Japanese Air Force was invincible."
Jerome Klinkowitz, whose earlier books focused on flyers' attitudes toward the air war in Britain and Europe, continues his work with an exceptionally interesting group of Pacific warriors. He brings together not only the commanders' stories but the often more colorfuland sometimes more accurateaccounts of life and battle by the men who flew these planes and the women who participated on the ground.

George Washington's beer recipe
Before devoting his time to defeating the British in the Revolutionary War and being the first president of the United States, George Washington enjoyed brewing his own beer.
A handwritten recipe for "small beer" created by Washington in 1757, while serving in the Virginia militia, has been published by the New York Public Library.
The recipe, which was found in Washington's "Notebook as a Virginia Colonel", lists the ingredients as bran hops, yeast and molasses – an addition that may explain his infamously rotten teeth.
A 15-gallon batch of Washington's beer is to be made to mark the library's centenary by the Coney Island Brewing Company, under the name "Fortitude's Founding Father Brew". .....

Yesterday, Patti Williams gave me permission to share this with you —
KMOX radio in St. Louis is sponsoring a trash pickup in Ferguson this morning, and hundreds of people are showing up. They have been interviewing people, asking "Why are you here today?"
The first person they interviewed (and by far the most eloquent) was Monica Something, who said she was Senior Pastor at St. Andrew's UMC. She said something like, "Our church is all about service and involvement, and how can we make a difference, if we don't get out and work in the community."
Yes! At it again!
— Those Christians. They're at it again. Making a difference. This time in Ferguson. And right in the middle of it all are those United Methodists.
We're celebrating Christmas in July in our church this weekend at all 3 services (Sat., Sun. & Mon.).
We do this up big: Christmas Carols both old and new, Christmas liturgy, and my sermon was Christmas is Not a Spectator Sport.
Several people have already asked for copies of the poem I read at the start of my sermon, and I'm happy to share: from her book Kneeling in Bethlehem, here is Ann Weems' poem —
If there is no cross in the manger,
there is no Christmas.
If the Babe doesn't become the Adult,
there is no Bethlehem star.
If there is no commitment in us,
there are no Wise Men searching.
If we offer no cup of cold water,
there is no gold, no frankincense, no myrrh.
If there is no praising God's name,
there are no angels singing.
If there is no spirit of alleluia,
there are no shepherds watching.
If there is no standing up, no speaking out, no risk,
there is no Herod, no flight into Egypt.
If there is no room in our inn,
then "Merry Christmas" mocks the Christ Child,
and the Holy Family is just a holiday card,
and God will loathe our feasts and festivals.
If there is no forgiveness in us,
there is no cause for celebration.
If Christmas is not now,
if Christ is not born into the everyday present,
then what is all the noise about?
"Come now, let us reason together," God says in Isaiah 1:18.
Where, and when, and with what small group will you do that today, this week?
"The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of God. Day after day they pour forth speech and night after night they reveal knowledge."
Wish I'd written that.
But that's how Psalm 19 starts.
When I took Martin The Puppy Who Lets Us Live With Him outside last night, I looked up. There were all these stars.
Doing what they do.
Imagine: "The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of God. Day after day they pour forth speech and night after night they reveal knowledge." Whoa.
What's being revealed to you today…in unexpected ways?
Let's remember to look up and around and really see.
After all: "The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of God. Day after day they pour forth speech and night after night they reveal knowledge."
It hurts to hear so many people hurting. Most of the time it's over relationships, who they've let in their lives.
Sometimes we need to assess the people we surround ourselves with.
Really ask ourselves, are they a blessing in our lives or a distraction, do they uplift and encourage us or do they tear us down? Do they constantly put us down, gossip about us when we're not around? (We know they do, because we hear it from from others). When you walk away from them, do you findyourself feeling less than who you are, feeling you don't measure up, or feeling like a failure after spending time with them or talking with them?
Then maybe we need to take a moment and assess who we are hanging around and letting into our lives.
The Bible does say, iron sharpens iron. Truth may hurt sometimes, rebuke is never fun. God will place loving people in our lives to challenge us, to speak the truth in love, to bring correction when we need it. But if they are not willing to come along side of us, to encourage us, to help us get through the hard times with us, to love us enough to help us in our weeknesses to grow stronger, then it's time to pray new people in our lives.
This life is hard enough without hearing a bunch of gossip, criticism, demeaning comments from people who make us feel like failures or that we're just not good enough and they want or feel the need to control us. Those are toxic people to have in our lives.
Pray for new friends, people who care enough to correct you , but also encourage you. People that may see a weakness but will come along side to help strengthen you until your strong enough to run the race in that area. People that will speak life into your life and are truly happy to see you succeed. Those that will honestly listen to gain more understanding and that will cry with you, laugh with you, people who you can share things with and know it will stay just between you, them and God and to find those that want to help but don't push their own agendas on you, to control or threaten you.
It's time to make healthier choices in whom we surround ourselves with.
God loves you and there are people who do appreciate and cherish each and every one of you. xoxo
— Like every other prescription, her advice will only help us if we take it. I know what that means for me…how about you? Pray that we'll have the strength to take our necessary actions.
Bishop Ken Carter serves our denomination in Florida. Our paths crossed pleasantly in days gone by, and it's good to read things like this from him earlier this week —
Three years ago today I was consecrated for the work of a bishop. I will always be grateful for the church that called me to this; it is a work in progress, and I am still learning. Almost daily I remember the wisdom of my friend Larry Wilkinson, a long time ago: it is a consecration, not a coronation!
Increasingly, I do sense that people want bishops to punish someone (choose your side of the aisle). There is accountability without punishment. I also sense that people want the accountability to be public (when it is the other) and private (when it is themselves or someone they love).
I remained convinced that there is a great deal of grace within our discipline, that there is a profound diversity within the generously orthodox Christian tradition (in which the Wesleyan stream flows), that secular perspectives on the church do not "get it", since they are not of the spirit, and that the church media, including social media, is generally conformed to secular media, regarding the church. So don't believe everything you read about the church on HuffPost or Fox.
I have stood amazed at the presence of the living Jesus in local church after local church (I have been in several hundred over these three years), and I am in awe of many elders, deacons and local pastors who give their lives to this work. I am especially excited about the younger clergy I know, and believe they will have extraordinary resources and opportunities to serve and lead. And we could not have imagined a better place to live or work than in the Florida Conference.
I am more hopeful than ever about the United Methodist Church. We will look very different in 7-10 years, and this has little to do with social issues—there are demographic shifts, and we are being pruned (John 15). But there is life and vitality, and, yes, to retrieve a phrase, "a future with hope". I am blessed to be a part of that, in this way.
— Please celebrate leaders like him with me, and let's keep all church leaders, laity and clergy alike, in our prayers.
I am making everything new.
— Christ Jesus, Revelation 21:5
We began this series several days ago thinking together about this: "What would you like to have made new today?"
Let's conclude this series by asking what specifically about yourself do you know you need to have made new today?
Christ's promise is still true today: I am making everything new.
Our Lord is still in the new-ness business.

As with all programming languages, getting to know XSLT's built-in data types and structures is essential to mastering the language. Node sets are the most interesting creatures among XPath's data types (which form the basis of XSLT's data types). In this discussion, I'll show a couple of nonobvious ways that you can use node sets to simplify XSLT processing.
Counted loops in traditional XSLT
XSLT provides a primitive operation for iterating all the items in a node set:
xsl:for-each. If you have used XSLT seriously, you are also
familiar with the standard approach for making iterations based on a given number,
rather than on a given node set. As an illustration, the following XSLT template
takes a number, and prints that many asterisks:
Listing 1. Template for printing a specified number of asterisks
<xsl:template name="print-asterisks"> <xsl:param name="count"/> <!-- The termination condition (infinite recursion is no fun) --> <xsl:if test="$count"> <!-- print the asterisk for this iteration --> <xsl:text>*</xsl:text> <!-- recursive call to print remaining asterisks --> <xsl:call-template name="print-asterisks"> <xsl:with-param name="count" select="$count-1"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:if> </xsl:template>
If you are unfamiliar with this technique, find a good XSLT tutorial or book right away and learn how such recursive templates work. This is one of the most fundamental techniques in XSLT. Even though this tip offers an occasional way around it, you won't get very far in XSLT without being able to rattle off such code in your sleep.
The template takes a single parameter, which is the number of asterisks to count out
and print. When the template is initially called, you pass in the total number of
asterisks to print. I go easy on the error-checking in this script. For example, if
you were to pass in a negative number value for
the result would be infinite recursion. The if test avoids infinite recursion
in normal cases by doing nothing when the count falls to zero. Then a single
asterisk is printed and the template is called recursively (with one subtracted from
the count) to print the remaining asterisks.
Performance is the biggest problem with this approach. Recursion in its raw form can take up a lot of resources. Most XSLT processors recognize this as an example of tail recursion, which can be optimized into a regular iteration. This helps, but even iteration can be slow if it goes through the machinery of template dispatch each time. Perhaps by now some XSLT processors have even more sophisticated optimizers that eliminate even this overhead, but I wouldn't count on such advancement yet. In general, when each step in the recursion is a trivial operation (such as printing a single asterisk) the overhead can be a problem.
The node set trick
You could use
xsl:for-each for such loops if you were
able to contrive a node set of exactly the length you want. One way to do this is to
take a node set that is longer than the length you want, and select the subset with
the right length. The following XPath expression does this, if
count is the desired number and
nodeset is a
node set you know to be longer than
$nodeset[position() < $count]
From the source node set, the predicate creates another node set with exactly
count nodes. The main question is where to get
nodeset from. Any means of obtaining a node set is fine for
the job, as long as the resulting node set is large enough. You could then just grab
a bunch of nodes from the source document -- or better yet, all of them -- using the
//node(). The problem is that you can't always rely
on the length of the source document. The stylesheet itself is probably a better
source, since you can vouch for its size when you write the transform, and you can
even pad it with dummy nodes if necessary. The expression
document("") gets the entire stylesheet as a secondary source
Using these tricks, you can rewrite the template for printing asterisks to the following:
Listing 2. Using a tailored node set for looping
<!-- use all nodes in the current stylesheet as a source --> <xsl:variable name="nodeset" select="document('')//node()"/> <xsl:template name="print-asterisks"> <xsl:param name="count"/> <xsl:if test="$count > count($nodeset)"> <!-- Basic safety measure: better to crash and burn than to fail in a non-obvious way --> <xsl:message terminate="yes"> Not enough nodes for iteration </xsl:message> </xsl:if> <!-- Execute the loop, using the node set we want --> <xsl:for-each select="$nodeset[position() < $count]"> <xsl:text>*</xsl:text> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:template>
The node set of all nodes in the stylesheet is constructed once, at top-level, and can be reused for any such loop in the transform. The template first checks that there are sufficient nodes for the iteration, and aborts all processing if there aren't. While you may choose more elegant error handling than this, do not omit the check or you may request a certain number of iterations, and end up with fewer without any warning. Such errors can be very hard to spot.
Another potential disadvantage is that for some XSLT implementations, the
document("")//node() operation can be expensive in terms of
time and space. The stylesheet could be reparsed, and then plumbed for every node.
This is a one-time penalty for the stylesheet execution. If you use the trick
several times, you'll probably still get an appreciable speed boost. If you only
need iterations of smaller length, you could use the variation
document("")/node(), which restricts the mining of nodes to the top
level. There are a handful of other tricks along these lines that you can use to
suit your purposes. For instance, you can decrease the chances of running out of
nodes by creating a node set from both the stylesheet and the source
Someone lacking charity might call this technique a hack, but as long as you understand the standard iteration tricks for XSLT, you can use this short-cut when you really need it. It looks as if this trick will become redundant with XPath and XSLT 2.0, which have far more sophisticated looping primitives built in, but it could be years before these are finalized and compliant implementations emerge.

Samsung Galaxy Premiere 2014 Live Blog
Samsung Philippines has invited us to their livestreaming event at the Makati Shangri-La Hotel and we will be covering the launch as it happens, so you might want to bookmark this page to get the latest buzz on the new devices that will be unveiled during this year's Samsung Galaxy Premiere.
Checked in early for the event.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 and Galaxy Tab S 10.5 now official.
Samsung speaker states that the S-AMOLED displays found on the Galaxy Tab S uses less power and claims that these tablets can last up to 11.5 hours on single full charge when used to view 1080p flicks.
Samsung announced that they are collaborating with Conde Nast, the company behind magazines like GQ and Vogue. The company has also announced that they are teaming up with National Geographic magazine. This is to highlight the amazing display of the new Samsung Galaxy Tab S tablets.
After announcing their partnership with top-rated magazines, the South Korean firm has spilled the beans about their collaboration with Marvel to bring more premium contents to Sammy's new slates.
In addition to these premium contents, Samsung also announced that they've partnered with Google to bring 60-day free access to Google Play Music which automatically gives users unlimited access to 20-million songs that they can listen to on the fly.
Mike from Samsung now talking about the Galaxy Tab S's design. he highlighted the slate's ultra-thin form factor which only measures 6.6mm. This is possibly one of the thinnest, if not the thinnest tablet in the market!
Mike passes the floor to Ryan to talk more about the connectivity/software features of the new Galaxy Tab S.
Ryan talks about some of the native Samsung apps that can be found on the new Galaxy Tab S. It inherits some of the apps/feature that were previously found on other flagship devices like the SGS5 and SGN3 like the Multi-Window, Download Booster and Fingerprint Scanner.
Ryan has finally announced the price and availability of the new Samsung Galaxy Tab S. According to him, the Wi-Fi only version will be available starting next month with the 10.5-inch version retailing for USD499 and the smaller version for USD399.
That's it folks! Thanks for joining us for the live blog of the Samsung Galaxy Premiere 2014. Please view our other posts to see more details about the newly launched tablets from Samsung.

Synthetic Marijuana Makers Are Working Around DEA Ban (For Your Holiday Shopping Pleasure)
This week we told you about how the DEA is essentially outlawing the synthetic pot known as K2 and Spice.
A commenter who claims to represent an online retailer of Spice says no big: Makers are churning out new "blends" as we speak, with recipes that will sidestep the DEA's ban on the chemicals that make up current K2 and Spice products.
And he says the products will be ready in time for Black Friday.
Our commenter of the day, Randy, writes:
Rest in peace? Are you kidding me. Our store has already ordered the two K2 blends that are not impacted by this ban in any way. We should have them in on Friday and will be running a DEA ban special on the daythe ban goes into effect.
Check out K2 Sky and K2 Sex. They can be found through any K2Verified Retailer
Now that's what we call holiday shopping. Of course, in L.A. you can get some of the good "kind" -- real, deal bud -- legally (if you pretend to be sick).

We bought this ornament for our friends who live in their camper in Arizona 6 months out of the year. They were thrilled with the gift. The only suggestion I would make is that since the ornament is two-sided the personalization should be on both sides of the camper but otherwise we and they were thrilled with the gift. It is definitely a keepsake.
Posted 2/13/2013 at 3:12 PM by Angela
The detail in this ornament was great. Even down to the tires. Loved it and so did the person I got it for.
Posted 3/26/2013 at 12:41 PM by Lise
I thought this was wonderful. My friend LOVED it. So unique and unusual, but yet personal. I was so glad I found this style of camper.

Using the illustration in Fig. 1, we can
see how a delay measurement can be
made between two devices, labeled Initiator
and Responder. To begin, the Initiator
sends a timing request message, and records
the timestamp T1 when the Ethernet
frame begins its journey through the
circuit that connects the two devices. This
Ethernet frame transits the network during
time d (which we are trying to measure)
and arrives at the Responder at time
T2, which is recorded in the responder.
The Responder then creates and sends a
response Ethernet frame back to the Initiator
containing the value of T2. The hardware
in the Responder records the time
that the response message leaves as T3. After
passing through the delay d once again
in transit, the response message arrives at
the Initiator, causing that device to record
timestamp T4. All that is left to be done
is for the Responder to send a follow-up
message to the Initiator that contains the
value of timestamp T3. Once the Initiator
has the value of all four timestamps (T1, T2,
T3, and T4), it can make a simple calculation
to figure out the value of d. This is done
by subtracting the turn-around time in the
Responder from the total time required for
the round trip and then dividing the result
by two. In formula form:
A similar process can be used to determine
the offset between two clocks at adjacent
nodes once the propagation delay
between them is known. Once the offset
and delay between two nodes is known,
one of the clocks can be adjusted to synchronize
with the other. Of course, this
begs the question of which clock should
be used as the grandmaster, and IEEE 1588
makes provisions for determining which
clock in a distributed network should be
treated as the master as well as providing
a mechanism for master clock redundancy.
Increasingly, audio and video devices
are incorporating IEEE 1588 capabilities,
as are some newer Ethernet switches. As
PTP technology proliferates, more uses
will certainly be found for accurately synchronized
systems elements spread across

The broad narrative of a coming capital account liberalisation in China has always bugged us. The main reason being that we couldn't see how China, in its current state, was going to start letting money flow (easily) out as well as in.
But before we get into that we should note, somewhat counterintuitively, that China's capital account is already fairly liberalised. Read more

UVU softball: Wolverines sprint past Roadrunners, take two in doubleheader
UVU Athletics
OREM, Utah - Utah Valley University won games one and two of its four-game, Pacific Coast Softball Conference series with CSU Bakersfield at Wolverine Field on Friday afternoon. UVU took game one, 10-1, before claiming the encore, 7-1.
The Wolverines (19-11, 4-2) got plenty of offensive production to go along with a pair of pitching gems from Tiffany Mills. For the day, first baseman Amanda Robinson went a combined 6-for-7 with three RBIs. Second baseman Dynasty Lauvai had a 2-for-6 day while posting a team-high five RBIs, while catcher Jazmyne Cortinas drove home four between the two games.
Starting both games, Mills (9-6) allowed just one earned run in 10.0 innings while striking out seven. CSUB (6-21, 2-4) batted only .097 as a team against Mills on Friday.
"All week we talked about how important it was for us to get hits when he had runners on base, and we finally did it," UVU head coach Rachel Hartgrove said. "The girls came out and hit the ball really hard and put the games away early. We're really good when we score first and it helps when we have Tiffany throwing gems like she did today."
In game one, UVU got ten runs on nine hits as it cruised to a 10-1 victory in the minimum five innings. Cortinas smashed a three-run home run in the first inning, and Dynasty Lauvai drove in a pair with a triple in the four-run third inning as the Wolverines posted double-digit runs for the third time this season.
The dinger, coming on an 0-2 pitch with two away in the inning, was the only hit for Cortinas in the ballgame but set the tone early for the Wolverines. Robinson went a perfect 3-for-3 for game one with an RBI, while Jachim kept her hot bat going with a 2-for-3 outing. Also pushing a run across with a single in the third inning was third baseman Debra Lovell, who finished the game 1-for-3.
UVU hung five runs in the first inning of game two, getting the scoring under way when Cortinas poked a bases-loaded single into left field to drive in outfielder Kylee Brinkerhoff. The bases still full of Wolverines, Lauvai came up with the big hit in the inning by smoking a drive off the base off the wall in left-center. The double cleared the bases and put the Wolverines ahead 4-0 with just one out. In the very next at-bat, designated player Jamie North came through with a double of her own to plate Lauvai and conclude UVU's offensive damage in the frame.
The Roadrunners got on the board in the top of the fourth on a sacrifice fly, but the Wolverines would extend their lead in the bottom of the fifth. With two outs and a runner on second, Morgan Summers slapped a dribbler down the first base line. The pitcher fielded the ball, but her throw to the second baseman covering first was not in time. Seeing second base left uncovered, Summers turned the corner and raced to the empty bag. The heads-up play put two runners in scoring position for Robinson, who proceeded to hit a sharp single through the right side to bring both around to score. The hit marked the second and third RBIs for Robinson on the day and increased the UVU lead to 7-1.
With the big lead, Megan Peay was able to come on in relief for second straight game, getting the Roadrunners in order in the top of the seventh to seal the win.
The four-game, PCSC series comes to a close Saturday with another afternoon doubleheader. Game times are scheduled for 12 p.m. and 2 at Wolverine Field.
"We'll need to come out loose again tomorrow if we're going to repeat this success," Hartgrove said. "CSUB is a team that is coming off win over 24th ranked Oregon State. We know that they are tough and we can't overlook them based on today's results."

Drunk driver crashes into Calif. cop responding to call
The officer was driving with his lights and sirens on when a vehicle made an illegal left turn in front of him and was broadsided
By Vivian Ho
San Francisco Chronicle
CONCORD, Calif. — A Concord woman who was under the influence of alcohol drove into her own arrest Wednesday, veering her car into the path of a police officer responding to an emergency call, authorities said.
The officer was driving north on Oak Grove Road with his lights and sirens on at about 12:40 p.m. when a 2014 Ford Fiesta made an illegal left turn in front of him and was broadsided, officials said.
Investigators responding to the scene determined that the Ford driver, 45-year-old Concord resident Margaret Collins, was intoxicated at the time of the crash, said police Lt. Ivan Menchaca.
Collins, who was not injured, was booked into jail on suspicion of driving under the influence and later released.
The unidentified officer was taken to a hospital as a precaution, where he was treated and released.

A great place to surf when there's some swell. Especially great when there's a tropical cyclone swell.
The beach is good when there is easterly winds.

Finally. Heaven. - 3 formally sun starved english boys arrived in Mangawhai only a few days off the plane into Auckland in early January. Remember the shocking weather you guys had throughout December? Well the day we made it to Mangawhai Heads the clouds were blasted from the sky and the sun.. well she blazed. After dodging the suicidal mynah birds on the road up we arrived at about 830pm. My first view of the glorious Pacific. Ever. I sat on the chalky rock and gazed at her for at least an hour as my boys busied themselves preparing food out the back of our Econovan. The surf was flat but the place echoed with potential. After three months and covering nearly every kilometer of coast on both Islands it was time to return to the drizzle of Old Blighty. Not before we returned to Mangawhai though, and this time it was going off. I had surfed better waves during my three month tenure but nowhere bestowed such feelings of completion as Mangawhai did. That night, after scrambling to the end of the rocky groin in total darkness, we sat and let the incoming tide wash over our legs, swearing to never forget this place. Swearing to return.Thank you Mangawhai, thank you NZ.
By cambeezy , 27-05-2005
siiiiiick - went her on the over the christmas holidays and got 3 insane days of surf. the first big waves barreling spitting both ways and me a few mates almost drowned haha and 1 got washed up on the rocks, the other 2 days were just sick.
