text: Hi, this is probably pretty simple but it's puzzling me... In neutrino oscillation, you produce and detect neutrinos with a specific flavour (e,μ,τ) but they travel as mass eigenstates (1,2,3). The flavour eigenstates are just linear superpositions of mass eigenstates: nu_e = U_e1 nu_1 + U_e2 nu_2 + U_e3 nu_3 nu_μ = U_μ1 nu_1 + U_μ2 nu_2 + U_μ3 nu_3 nu_τ = U_τ1 nu_1 + U_τ2 nu_2 + U_τ3 nu_3 where U_ij are the PMNS matrix elements. So for example, an electron neutrino will consist of ~68% nu_1, ~30% nu_2 and ~2% nu_3. During propagation the mass eigenstates travel at different velocities so at any given time, the neutrino you started with will consist of a certain fraction of nu_1,2,3 but not necessarily the correct ratio which corresponds to nu_e, nu_μ or nu_τ. Therefore, I don't understand why whenever you detect a neutrino, it is always one the three flavours. If it were ~66% nu_1, 33% nu_2 and 1% nu_3, would it "become" an electron neutrino because it's closest to this state? Is the PMNS matrix just probabilistic so the average ratio is ~68% nu_1, ~30% nu_2 and ~2% nu_3 but this is not fixed? Does it have something to do with never detecting neutrinos directly but only through interactions and e.g. a W boson can only ever interact with one of the flavour states? Or some other reason altogether? =s Thanks in advance, Ryan

What's the deal with the NY Times? Can't we get the Variety Puzzle any more without paying?
I'm the first to comment on on the puzzle, so I get first choice! Great book title & great quote. Thanks, Mike.
Sue, I see what you mean. That'll be another bicycle ride to the library. They'll wonder why I'm standing at the copy machine with a section of the NY Times. Or maybe they won't.
Sue and David -- you can still get the NYT Acrostics at xwordinfo.com (at least for now).
I just got a new MAC and the acrostic is not showing up. I get a message linking me to the Java site, but no clue which product I need. I already have Java, since I have no problem loading the Times acrostic. Any advice? TY
susan -- I use Java Standard Edition, Version 7, Update 9 and it seems to work fine with the Mountain Lion operating system. They did something recently which has caused the font to become very faint compared to what it had been. Make sure you go through system preferences to set up your options.
Nice one! And a Happy turkey to all!
Seasonal quote, a book and author I am familiar with, and an easy puzzle. What's not to like? Happy Thanksgiving to all!
Answer F was my favorite childhood TV program, so that kicked it off for me, then picked along and managed to finish with few sure answers and many guesses. Happy Thanksgiving folks!
One of the things I give thanks for is the WSJ puzzles. They keep my mind sharp, and I am getting old.
Nathan Curtis posted an excellent (I thought) variety cryptic on his website last evening. Good cluing and tough enough to challenge one's cryptic skills. Mine, anyhow.
@David - thanks for the Nathan Curtis tip; it's always fun to find more variety cryptics. Speaking of which, many thanks for whoever recommended Roger Wolff's book a while ago; I got it from Amazon, and it's REALLY good.
Didn't know the goddess nor the mythecal drug, but was able to struggle through this one anyway.
phykos, you're welcome & your welcome. I'm hoping Roger Wolff is working on a sequel!
Dang! That was supposed to be you're & you're.
I, too, am working my way through Roger Wolff's book. SLOWLY, I might add. The puzzles are ingenious and tough. Add my thanks, David.
Me, too, plus a Wayne R. Williams and the first book of cryptics from the Atlantic Monthly (copyright 1986 and purchased used). Such fun!
Blanche, my "Harper's" arrived yesterday. I had to use INK on the colored squares. But not difficult, just fun.
I solved the last puzzle in Wolff's book yesterday (I still have to go back and do several that I skipped the first go-round). This final puzzle is such a good example of what makes variety cryptics so much fun. The grid is a typical bar-style cryptic, but then you have to "solve" the instructions in order to customize the grid & come up with a 6-letter unclued answer to finish the puzzle. The cryptic clues aren't difficult, but there's a fun crypticness to the entire puzzle that makes it so enjoyable. (Sorry for the digression, WSJ, but I wanted to post a comment & RW doesn't appear to have a website!).
More variety cryptics from the WSJ would be welcomed!!!
L/C: That was an atypical Maltby cryptic. It was Seasonal and had a nice punny theme entry, but the puzzle was so uncharacteristically simple. There were no uncommon words, alternate spellings or difficult clues. Do you think it was just the magazine's holiday gift to solvers, or is something else up? I guess we'll have to wait & see.
I have to agree. I'm fairly new to cryptics and expect to struggle a bit on Maltby's offerings. I figured out the theme entry pretty quickly, there were no difficult anagrams, it just went together in about an hour for me. I hope he isn't preparing to retire and using up his stockpiled puzzles. That would be a sad event!

Dan Barber
The Third Plate: Field Notes on the Future of Food
Chef Dan Barber reveals that even the most enlightened eating of today is ultimately detrimental to the environment and to individual health. And it doesn't involve truly delicious food. Based on ten years of surveying farming communities around the world, Barber's The Third Plate offers a radical new way of thinking about food that will heal the land and taste good, too.
The solution, explains Barber, lies in the "third plate": an integrated system of vegetable, grain, and livestock production that is fully supported—in fact, dictated—by what we choose to cook for dinner. The third plate is where good farming and good food intersect. Engaging, funny and delicious…" –Chicago Tribune
DAN BARBER is the Chef of Blue Hill, a restaurant in Manhattan's West Village, and Blue Hill at Stone Barns, located within the nonprofit farm and education center, Stone Barns Center for Food & Agriculture. His opinions on food and agricultural policy have appeared in numerous publications, including The New York Times. Barber has received multiple James Beard awards including Best Chef: New York City (2006) and the country's Outstanding Chef (2009). In 2009 he was named one of Time magazine's 100 most influential people in the world.

More incredibly, Harry's secretary died the following day when pushed onto subway tracks. Uncle Harry was a prominent New York attorney and his partners seem to know more than they are telling.

Christopher Bollen
Orient: A Novel
A gripping novel of culture clash and murder. The small Long Island village of Orient is gripped by a series of mysterious deaths—and one young man, a loner taken in by a local, tries to piece together the crimes before his own time runs out. One summer morning, the body of a local caretaker is found in the open water; the same day, a monstrous animal corpse is found on the beach, presumed a casualty from a nearby research lab. With rumors flying, eyes turn to Mills Chevern — a tumbleweed orphan newly arrived in town from the west with no ties and a hazy history. As the deaths continue and fear in town escalates, Mills joins with Beth, an Orient native in retreat from Manhattan, to help uncover the truth. With the clock ticking, they struggle to find answers, faced with a killer they may not be able to outsmart. Bollen "weaves a mesmerizing fictional web of characters and mysteries into a story that is as viscerally thrilling as it is intellectually precise." (BookPage) Rich with character and incident, yet deeply suspenseful, ORIENT marks the emergence of a novelist of enormous talent.
David Browne
So Many Roads: The Life and Times of the Grateful Dead
As one Amazon reviewer said: "With the Grateful Dead celebrating their 50th Anniversary (!) this year, there are many books being published.

Fans will actually learn something from this book: here are the facts, culled from first hand accounts from the many people behind the GD scene from the earliest days right through to today." Deeply reported and well told!

Empty Mansions: The Mysterious Life of Huguette Clark and the Spending of a Great American Fortune
When Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Bill Dedman noticed in 2009 a grand house for sale, unoccupied for nearly sixty years, he stumbled through a portal into American history.

"A dazzlement and a wonder."
(Pat Conroy) "One of those incredible stories that you didn't even know existed." (Jon Stewart)
Nelson DeMille
Radiant Angel: John Corey Book 7
Prescient and chilling. DeMille's new novel takes us into the heart of a new Cold War with a clock-ticking plot that has Manhattan in its crosshairs. After a showdown with the notorious Yemeni terrorist known as The Panther, John Corey has left the Anti-Terrorist Task Force and returned home to New York City, taking a job with the Diplomatic Surveillance Group. Although Corey's new assignment with the DSG – surveilling Russian diplomats working at the U.N. Mission – is thought to be "a quiet end," he is more than happy to be out from under the thumb of the FBI and free from the bureaucracy of office life. But Corey realizes something the U.S. government doesn't: The all-too-real threat of a newly resurgent Russia. Another "cannot put down" page-turner from the master.

"An inspiration for those of us who cannot live without books." John S. Major
Jules Feiffer
Kill My Mother: A Graphic Novel
"Jules Feiffer's Kill My Mother is a tribute to film noir and detective fiction….But Kill My Mother isn't mere pastiche. The story is a thoughtful meditation on female identity and whether the not-so-simple art of murder can ever be defended as a moral necessity. It is a story about stories, the myths we have to create in order to keep putting one foot in front of the other… I know what I think: Kill My Mother is terrific." — Laura Lippman, New York Times Book Review, front page review
Katherine Freese
The Cosmic Cocktail: Three Parts Dark Matter
"In The Cosmic Cocktail, Professor Katie Freese offers a gripping first-person account of her life as a cosmologist. The recipe? Part memoir, part tutorial, part social commentary. Shaken, not stirred."–Neil deGrasse Tyson, astrophysicist, host of the television series Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey
Elena Gorokhova

But her mother came to join this new American family as their first child was born – and she stayed for twenty-four years. And in her mind, she had never left Leningrad. Elena tells the story of the three generations of strong women with very different cultural values, each battling for control. "With a magical command of language, Elena Gorokhova has painted images on my brain I won't forget." (Alan Alda) Delightful, hilarious, brilliant….

Stay the Rising Sun: The True Story of USS Lexington, Her Valiant Crew, and Changing the Course of World War II
The extraordinary story of Lady Lex and her role in history. In May 1942, in the Coral Sea, the United States' first naval victory against the Japanese was marred by the loss of the aircraft carrier USS Lexington. A remarkable 90% of the crew made it off the burning decks but the ship was lost. Lexington's legacy did not end with her demise, however – the battle turned out to be a strategic loss: for the first time in the war, a Japanese invasion force was forced to retreat. There is hardly a WWII battle story more compelling. "A terrific read, exceptional, from a master storyteller."
Phil Klay
Winner of the National Book Award for Fiction. Selected as one of the best books of the year by The New York Times, Time, Newsweek, The Washington Post, Amazon and more.
Across nations and continents, Klay sets in devastating relief the two worlds a soldier inhabits: one of extremes and one of loss. He takes readers to the frontlines of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, asking us to understand what happened there, and what happened to the soldiers who returned: characters who struggle to make meaning out of chaos.
REDEPLOYMENT is poised to become a classic and marks Phil Klay as one of the most talented new voices of his generation. "An exciting new voice." (Booklist)

Between 1854 and 1929, so-called orphan trains ran regularly from the cities of the East Coast to the farmlands of the Midwest, carrying thousands of abandoned children whose fates would be determined by pure luck. As a young Irish immigrant, Vivian Daly was one such child, sent by rail from New York City to an uncertain future a world away. Returning east later in life, Vivian leads a quiet, peaceful existence on the coast of Maine, the memories of her upbringing a hazy blur. But in her attic, hidden in trunks, are vestiges of a turbulent past.
Seventeen-year-old Molly Ayer knows that a community-service position helping an elderly widow clean out her attic is the only thing keeping her out of juvenile hall. But as Molly helps Vivian sort through her keepsakes and possessions, she discovers that she and Vivian aren't as different as they appear. Molly too has unanswered questions about the past. Moving between contemporary Maine and Depression-era Minnesota, Orphan Train is a powerful tale of upheaval and resilience, second chances, and unexpected friendship.

Judith Miller
The Story: A Reporter's Journey
Pulitzer Prize-winning star reporter for the New York Times, the world's most powerful newspaper; foreign correspondent in some of the most dangerous fields; longest jailed correspondent for protecting her sources, Judith Miller is highly respected and controversial. In this memoir, she turns her reporting skills on herself with the intensity of her professional vocation as she focuses in on her reporting which marshaled evidence that led America to invade Iraq. The Story describes the real life of a foreign and investigative reporter. It is an adventure story, told with bluntness and wryness. "A memoir of high-stakes journalism . . . especially revealing about why she decided to go to prison for contempt of court rather than reveal a confidential source related to the outing of Valerie Plame." (Kirkus Reviews)

Frances Schultz
The Bee Cottage Story: How I Made a Muddle of Things and Decorated My Way Back to Happiness
"Schultz, a blogger, author and cable TV host, combines memoir with decorating in this illustrated tale of love and home. The author buys a cottage in East Hampton, planning to live in it with her fiancé. When the relationship ends before the wedding, she turns heartbreak into headboards (woven, from Pottery Barn) and drowns her sorrows in an 11 ft. × 38 ft. lap pool with an installed fountain. In the process, she learns something about herself and her style: "I didn't even know what help I needed. Help moving forward from a painful decision with hurtful consequences for people I cared about? Help digging out of boxes and getting organized? Help from a handyman? The answer, of course, was all of the above." Schultz is the epitome of the successful woman who is unlucky in love until she puts her own house in order, which, in her case, means placing a bench from Katharine Hepburn's estate in her bedroom and painting the guest bedroom with Benjamin Moore Galapagos Turquoise. "The book is lighthearted, self-indulgent, frivolous, and likable—a good beach read, especially in the Hamptons." (Publishers Weekly)

Michael Shnayerson
The Contender
Andrew Cuomo is the protagonist of an ongoing political saga that reads like a novel. In many ways, his rise, fall, and rise again is an iconic story: a young American politician of vaunting ambition, aiming for nothing less than the presidency. "[A] deeply researched account…While Shnayerson doesn't deny the governor his considerable talents and accomplishments – from his efforts as a young man tackling homelessness to his key role in the 2011 passage of same-sex marriage – the story is shadowed by what the author portrays as an often ruthless drive for advancement, and a mania for control."―Albany Times-Union
Andy Siegel
Cookie's Case (A Tug Wyler Mysteries Book 2)
Cookie, an angel in stiletto heels, is by far the most popular performer at Jingles Dance Bonanza. To her devoted audience, she's a friend, therapist, and shoulder to cry on, all rolled into one. While meeting an old pal at the club, Tug doesn't expect to pick up a new client but quickly realizes the gallant Cookie—dancing in a neck brace, each leg kick potentially her last—is in need of a committed champion.
Righting wrongs is never a simple task for Tug, a sharp-witted and unorthodox trial lawyer who repeatedly finds himself in the middle of unusual cases and causes. But that doesn't stop him from trying. Siegel, a practicing attorney, has written "a realistic fast-paced novel that is a mystery but the actual crime is not revealed initially. The writing is addictive with pages flying." (Bestsellers World)
Daniel Simone
The Lufthansa Heist: Behind the Six-Million Dollar Cash Haul that Shook the World
The inside story – from the organizer himself – of the largest unrecovered cash haul in history. This full account brings readers behind the heist memorialized in Goodfellas. From Henry Hill himself, who worked with Daniel Simone in writing the book until his death in 2012. Hill entered the Federal Witness Protection Program and assisted the government in building cases against forty-six top Mafia associates. Until his death, he toured the county to lecture high school students not to emulate his past life and career, even though it looked pretty exciting in Wise Guy, the book and film Hill created with Nick Pileggi. This later book is an unprecedented "tell-all" about the robbery with never-before-unveiled details, particulars known only to an insider.
Stephanie Smith
300 Sandwiches: A Multilayered Love Story . . . with Recipes
When New York Post writer Stephanie Smith made a turkey and Swiss on white bread for her boyfriend, Eric (aka E), he took one bite and uttered those now-famous words. While her beau's declaration initially seemed unusual, even antiquated, Stephanie accepted the challenge and got to work. Little did she know she was about to cook up the sexiest and most controversial love story of her generation.
300 Sandwiches is the story of Stephanie and E's epic journey of bread and betrothal, with a whole loaf of recipes to boot. For Stephanie, a novice in the kitchen, making a sandwich—or even 300—for E wasn't just about getting a ring; it was her way of saying "I love you" while gaining confidence as a chef. It was about how many breakfast sandwiches they could eat together on future Sunday mornings, how many s'mores might follow family snowboarding trips, how many silly fights would end in makeup sandwiches. Suddenly, she saw a lifetime of happiness between those two slices of bread.
Not everyone agreed. The media dubbed E "the Internet's Worst Boyfriend"; bloggers attacked the loving couple for setting back the cause of women's rights; opinions about their romance echoed from as far away as Japan. Soon, Stephanie found her cooking and her relationship under the harsh glare of the spotlight.
From culinary twists on peanut butter and jelly to "Not Your Mother's Roast Beef" spicy French Dip to Chicken and Waffle BLTs, Stephanie shares the creations—including wraps, burritos, paninis, and burgers—that ultimately sated E's palate and won his heart. Part recipe book, part girl-meets-boy memoir, 300 Sandwiches teaches us that true love always wins out—one delicious bite at a time.
Lettie Teague
Wine in Words
Delectably brief essays that tell you only what you need to know to enjoy wine: the truly key wines, grapes, regions; tips about wine buying, aging, and storage; and useful explanations about tasting notes and whether or not vintages really matter. In short, this book covers the real absolutes that you need to know about wine. With the pithy wit that readers of her columns have come to expect, Lettie Teague breaks down the stumbling blocks that often intimidate us and clears up the myths that cloud our understanding. A series of mini-essays cover the essentials in a fun, omnibus fashion. The tone is sometimes irreverent, sometimes opinionated, but always practical. For instance, there are entries such as "The Unbearable Oakiness of Being," "Can Wedding Wine Be Good," and "Why You Really Need Only One Glass." The opposite of a didactic textbook, this volume is not meant to be read from start to finish. Instead, like wine itself, it encourages small contemplative sips. It is a companion for the modern taster, a concise and curated collection of tidbits to satisfy anyone with a lively curiosity and palate.
Victoria Tennant
Irina Baronova and the Ballets Russes de Monte Carlo
"This book elucidates why Irina Baronova was such an extraordinary person with such an extraordinary talent, By containing such a personal account which only a daughter could provide, as well as an amazing collection of photos many of which have never been seen before, the book brilliantly captures why Irina was one of the most important and talented dancers and personalities in the history of ballet. A great and important book." (Brian Reichman on Amazon)

Dana Thomas puts an original spin on the story of two icons of cutting-edge couture in engaging real-life saga. High drama, high fashion, high stakes, and high tragedy – a startling tale of ambition, creativity, fame, and even death. Riveting.
Matthew Thomas
We Are Not Ourselves
This multigenerational debut novel of an Irish-American family is nothing short of a "masterwork" (Joshua Ferris, Then We Came to the End). When Eileen Tumulty, born in 1941 Queens, New York, meets Ed Leary, a scientist whose bearing is nothing like those of the men she grew up with, she thinks she's found the perfect partner to deliver her to the cosmopolitan world she longs to inhabit. They marry, and Eileen quickly discovers Ed doesn't aspire to the same, ever bigger, stakes in the American Dream. Through the Learys, novelist Matthew Thomas charts the story of the American Century, particularly the promise of domestic bliss and economic prosperity that captured hearts and minds after WWII. The result is a riveting and affecting work of art; one that reminds us that life is more than a tally of victories and defeats, that we live to love and be loved, and that we should tell each other so before the moment slips away. "[A] devastating debut novel . . . an honest, intimate family story with the power to rock you to your core "(Janet Maslin in the New York Times)
Susan Verde
You and Me
"This tale of feline friendship opens as a skimmer hat is floating in the breeze. A pondering cat reflects on the past and what led to the lucky day on which two furry friends crossed paths. Listing the countless "what ifs," the story unfolds to reveal a chance meeting where the charming pair become one. Verde's rhythmic text complements this heartfelt story and her characteristic illustrations provide a delicate and buoyant representations of the joys of friendship.

Michael Weiss
ISIS: Inside the Army of Terror

In this book American journalist Weiss and Syrian analyst Hassan explain how these violent extremists have evolved from a nearly defeated Iraqi insurgent group into a jihadi army of international volunteers. Where do they come from, why has the movement attracted both local and global support, and where does their financing come from. It is all here. "A superb piece of journalism." (Nick Cohen, The Spectator UK). "Weiss and Hassan have written the most serious book-length study of the Islamic State so far." (New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice)
Dr. Ruth K. Westheimer
The Doctor Is In: Dr. Ruth on Love, Life, and Joie de Vivre
Everyone knows Dr. Ruth as the most famous and trusted sex therapist, but few people know she narrowly escaped death from the Holocaust, was raised in an orphanage in Switzerland, or that she was a

Because of the number of oxygen masks, you and your partner will not be able to sit next to each other if you each have a baby in your lap. So either seat yourselves in aisle seats across from each other (if the plane has an extra mask on each side in each row) or one behind the other if there is only one extra mask per row. Another suggestion is to purchase one seat for your twins so that you may all sit together.
Baby wear through the airport and at cruising altitude all you wish. But you may not have your baby attached to you in any way during take-off, landing, or ground movement. The quick answer is "no slings or carriers are FAA approved." The long answer has to do with what happens if you are subjected to crash dynamics (like if two planes collide on the tarmac) with an infant strapped to your chest. It will involve triggers.
If you baby wear through security, you will be subjected to further screening. This usually means your hands will be swabbed. If you carry your baby through the metal detector in your arms, there is no automatic further screening. Small children are not sent through the scanner, they always go through the metal detector and are never separated from a parent.
If you haven't yet started solids, wait until you return from your trip. First foods involve a lot of mess and gear that isn't easy to wash in an airport bathroom, let alone an airline lavatory. If you have started solids, don't introduce any new foods for a week before you fly. The last thing you want is an allergic reaction while you are in transit or very far away from your ped. At five months, I would skip solids altogether while you are in transit.
If you bring the car seats with you, gate-check them. There is less chance of damage that way. And if there is an empty seat on the plane, you can put one of your twins in it in the car seat. Ask when you check-in and again at the gate. Even on a full flight missed connections can result in empty seats. Do not check a car seat at the counter as luggage.
If your twins are different sizes, back clothes, diapers, formula, etc. for each in both your and your partner's carry-on. That way each of you can do a diaper run, no matter which twin you have in your lap. If the diapers are different sizes, label the diapers so you can tell at a glance which child is supposed to wear it.
Pack backpacks or duffels as carry-ons. These can be stuffed under the seat in front. You can access the contents even if there is turbulence. Getting things out of a bag in the overhead bin is a pain if you have to do so while holding a baby.
Bring a diaper wallet or small bag that holds a diaper, the wipes, and an extra outfit. Take that to the airplane lavatory to change diapers instead of the whole diaper bag. If there is a changing table on the plane, it is usually folds down from the wall over the toilet in one lavatory. If there isn't one, your best bet is to change the baby on the closed lid of the toilet. Do not change a baby on your seat.
Pack an extra change of clothes for everybody. Flight attendants do spill drinks. Dress the babies in sleep suits for the flight. Comfort is more important than fashion. Don't forget hats if they don't have much hair.
Both you and your partner should have a bottle of water (1/2 liter works well), a sport bottle, or small travel mug to drink out of. You won't be able to use your tray table easily with a baby in your lap. A bottle with a lid can be tucked into the seat pocket. One of the cups the airline issues will have to be held in your hand or put on a tray table. Pour the contents into your bottle and let your baby play with the cup.
Pack way more diapers (and formula?) than you need. Neither is easy to find in an airport, so you don't want to run out despite your flight being delayed 4 hours. You are allowed to bring a "reasonable amount of liquids for the length of your flight" through security for the babies. Even if you (or your partner) breastfeeds, bring some water with you. A breastfeeding mom needs to keep hydrated so her supply doesn't dip. The water will be for the baby in the end, even though mom drinks it initially.
Because you have lap babies, bring a photocopy of the birth certificates with you. It doesn't have to be an original or certified copy; a photocopy will do. This is to show the airline, not TSA. It is your job to prove that your lap baby has not yet reached its second birthday. If you can't do that, the airline may require you to buy a seat for your LOs right then and there. Southwest in particular is a stickler for this, even if the infant is obviously nowhere near 2. TSA does not require identification for anyone under age 18.
If you are worried about the babies' ears not adjusting to the changes in pressure easily, take them to the doctor a few days before you travel. If the ears are healthy, they will have no problem adjusting. If there is an ear infection, you can start treatment before you fly. There is no need to make the babies suck on something during take-off and initial descent. Have something available, but don't delay a feeding or wake the baby up due to air pressure.
If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
You hold them in your lap^^

If you can't wear the babies during take off and you can't put then in the bassinet, where are they supposed to be? I'm flying with my twins as lap babies in September.
Yep. You hold them in your laps. And remember you can only have one lap baby per ticketed adult (in case you are the only adult in your travel party).
The chances of there being an incident are very, very low. Statistically, your LOs are safer doing somersaults in the aisle of a plane than they are in a car.
If we can't gate check our double stroller, not sure how we will transport the carseats through the airport? That would be heavy!
They did make me remove the sound asleep baby from my stroller during security so they could scan the stroller but everyone was really nice about it and the TSA agent actually helped collapse my stroller and load it onto the conveyor for me since my hands were clearly full. If you need to gate check anything consider a travel bag over it bc it will get filthy. Also make sure you mention it at the desk when you get to your gate. You'll need a special tag. Goo luck!
Unless you are flying American Airlines, you will be able to gate-check the double stroller.
As an FYI- maybe they weren't paying attention but I was allowed to wear my (then) 3 month old son during takeoff in February. He was in a sling and sound asleep.
Flight Attendants don't always see everything, there's so much to check, especially if they're busy telling the guy two rows away for the third time to turn off his telephone...
You were putting your baby at risk by doing this so be sure, if you don't have a seat for him, that you at least make sure he's not attached to you during take-off and landing. During the flight itself, you can wear him because the risk of forward impact is low. Those are also the most dangerous portions of the flight.
Remember that you weigh a lot more than your baby does so he would have had no chance if the plane had slid off the runway. Lap babies are safer LOOSE in your lap as well as this being a FAA regulation.

We flew with our twins when they were 8 months and they did great! You've gotten some good advice here and I just wanted to lend you some encouragement, having BTDT. We ended up buying two umbrella strollers b/c we were flying AA and there was no suitable double stroller that fit the weight limits for gate checking. We love having two strollers. We bought an attachment that can link them together in a bind, but we've never used it. I'm still glad we have it though as an option. The two umbrella strollers are nice to have for lots of purposes. I seldom go out anyway with both babies by myself. I usually have my nanny with me or Daddy and the little strollers are so much easier to get around. I also sometimes use one of the strollers for one baby and wear the other baby.

bottleneck(bot´&l nek´´) (n.) The delay in transmission of data through the circuits of a computer's microprocessor or over a TCP/IP network. The delay typically occurs when a system's bandwidth cannot support the amount of information being relayed at the speed it is being processed. There are, however, many factors that can create a bottleneck in a system.
Bottlenecks affect microprocessor performance by slowing down the flow of information back and forth from the CPU and the memory. If all of the components of a system are not able to feed the same amount of data at the same speed, a delay is created. For example, a 2GB processor will be severely bottlenecked by an 800MB memory bandwidth.
Bottlenecks affect network performance by slowing down the flow of information transmitted across networks. TCP/IP connections were originally designed to transmit only text files, and the proliferation of bandwidth-intensive transmissions such as high-resolution graphics has caused bottlenecks in the process; therefore, the data moves more slowly across networks.
(v.) To delay the tranmission of data through a data path.

I am using Ruby on Rails 3.0.7 and I would like to understand how to handle the following code in order to retrieve a class objects with a specified
In my view file I have:
@records = Users.all # This returns an array (class)
In another file, a partial template, I would like to retrieve, for example, the user with
id 1, but if I make this:
I get an
enumerator (class) of all records:
<Enumerator: [<Users id: 1, ... ] >
How can I find the user with
id 1 (or other ids) "a là Ruby on Rails Way"?
I use
@records = Users.all in a view file because I aim to minimize calls to the database since I need to iterate almost over all records and check them existence. If I do for example:
some_hash.each { |key, value|
put User.find(value)
and I go in the log file, I will see a lot of database requests.

text: Dear Friends, I want to indicate a question on photons. Imagine that a photon goes in a direction and hits in a mirror to 45º. This photon is later observed like it has 90º respect its original direction. Well, now imagine that this mirror is closed in a black box, and you don't know that's going to happen into this closed black box, but you see that the photon acts exactly like in first case. But someone says to you that, into the black box, there is a little BlackHole that has changed the direction on the photon. It seems the same, but it's not, becouse in first case, is a reflection, but in second, is a change of the direction of the photon. c is constant, and it can't have acceleration (neither normal or tangencial), but what has really happened is that photon has adquired a new direction by the action of the blackhole (gravity atraction). Well, now if you take one second, and you draw the Russell picture, u have this: first you draw the distance that you have seen that one object has [tex] \begin{picture}(200,200)(0,0) \put(50,50){\textcolor{red}{\line(1,1){15}}} \put(50,50){\textcolor{black}{\line(0,1){50}}} \put(50,50){\textcolor{black}{\line(1,0){50}}} \put(50,51){\textcolor{green}{\line(1,0){15}}} \put(65,65){\textcolor{blue}{\line(0,-1){15}}} \put(50,50){\circle{100}} \end{picture} [/tex] If the center is namened O, the green line is OM, the blue line is MP and the red line is OP. Bertrand Russel says (the ABC of the relativity) that if you want measure a body that has coming to us, in a second it traces the distance OM. If we make a circle arround O of radius of the distance of light in one second, we can trace MP, perpendicular to MO, crossing the circle on P. Thus OP is the distance that light runs in one second, and the relationship within OP and OM is the relationship of the velocity of light with every one of they. The relationship on OP and MP is the altered longitutes. You have that: [tex] \bar {OM} ^2+ MP^2 = OP^2 [/tex] That u can represent in complex numbers (isomorphic to vectors) this form: [tex] OM+ MP i = OP [/tex] Well, really there are distances, but like there has pased one second, you can translate this to: [tex] V_R + V_x i = c [/tex] Becouse 'c' is constant, Vx is the (virtual) component of the velocity into the black-box (and near the black hole) that causes a retard on the time... but velocity don't changes its constance. But there's a problem: we have only 1 real module, and one virtual module (maybe the spacetime direction that changes the photon). But well, we can use hypercomplex numbers, clifford algebras, and the Hestenes ideas to make a generalization of the Einstein formulae: [tex] x'= \frac{x}{\sqrt {1-(v/c)^2}} [/tex] how? Well, like B. Russell said, u can draw spacetime in 2-D by using complex numbers. To draw spacetime in 3-D, u need hypercomplex numbers of Hamilton (or quaternions) that have one real value and 3 imaginary values. Forguet for a moment, the minkowsky space, and think only in a real value of the velocity, a virtual imaginary 3D space and try to draw it. We will proceed this way: In complex numbers, u know that module is the square of the 2 components. In the previous example. But u want to know the REAL velocity, not the VIRTUAL velocity. Is like this: [tex] V_r + V_x i = c [/tex] [tex] V_r = \sqrt {(c^2- V_x^2)} [/tex] Now, with a hypercomplex velocity, you have that: [tex] V_c=V_r+V_x i+V_y j+V_z k [/tex] With the hamilton algebra of hypercomplex numbers: [tex]i^2=j^2=k^2=ijk=\sqrt {-1} [/tex] You want to know Vr, and this is: [tex] V_r=V-V_x i-V_y j-V_z k [/tex] If Vcte=c, u have that: [tex] Vr=c-V_x i-V_y j-V_z k [/tex] And his module is: [tex] \sqrt {c^2-V_x^2-V_y^2-V_z^2} [/tex] If there's no change of direction, the REAL velocity is c, but if there is a change of direction (maybe becouse a spacetime alteration like a blackhole, or others) Vr is alwais minor than c. A vector (or multivector like this), his modulus is: [tex] \frac {V_r+V_x i+V_y j+V_z k}{\sqrt {V_r^2+V_x^2+V_y^2+V_z^2}} [/tex] Now, with the drawing of the hypersphere, you know that [tex] \frac {c^2} {\sqrt {c^2-V_x^2-V_y^2-V_z^2}} [/tex] And the velocity could be written like: [tex]V= \frac {V_r+V_x i+V_y j+V_z k} {Vr^2+V_x^2+V_y^2+V_z^2} \frac {c^2}{\sqrt {c^2-V_x^2-V_y^2-V_z^2}} [/tex] What do u think about this?

My problem with Flash by JeibiWatch
©2012-2016 Jeibi
Pretty sure we've all been through this.
You've probably had this comment already before, but why don't you start using Adobe Edge Animate?
Well, I've never heard of it, nobody I know uses it, and it's not industry standard. So... that's probably why.
i feel your pain
I hate it when that happens!
oh man! how can you make your vedio move like that?
True on so many levels.
Flash isn't worth the price you pay for it...why not synfig...
hahahaha excellent.
that made me laugh
That's why I hope that HTML5 kills Flash quickly.
Flash, it rhymes with crash. Coincidence? I think NOT! lol ;3
The more I use flash, the more I end up thinking of this animation and how painfully true it is. T_T
I've just started studying up on flash hoping to start on practicing animation when I get more time but mind telling me what usually causes these crashes? Too much going on at once, certain tools?
Large files, typically, especially if there are a lot of layers and bitmaps. If you can at all help it, it's better to store scenes in separate files and edit the video together after. If all scenes MUST be in one file, I suggest having each cut be its own "graphic" symbol.
