Women's shelter
A women's shelter (often alternatively called a woman's refuge or other, similar names) is a place of temporary refuge and support for women escaping violent or abusive situations, such as rape and domestic violence. The managers of many of these locations have often expanded their efforts to deal with related issues such as housing victimized children, both male and female, fleeing abuse as well as providing legal aid for domestic violence victims, among many other services.
Having the ability to leave a situation of violence is valuable for those who are under attack. Such situations frequently involve an imbalance of power that limits the victim's financial options. The most dangerous time for a domestic violence sufferer is on the point of exit. A person in a domestic violence situation should create an exit safety plan, to leave the situation in a safe manner.
Initially a response to violence against women, a women's shelter may also serve as a place for women to organize for equality, which is an important distinction from standard government-funded service-based approaches to domestic violence. Many states and cities have domestic violence coalitions supporting women's shelters.[1] In the U.S., the National Network to End Domestic Violence provides a national voice, supporting shelters for victims of domestic violence as well as other resources.[2]
Women's shelters were created to house women, who have been abused in some way, that are seeking refuge from their abuser. Shelters for abused women are not a new concept. In feudal Japan, some Buddhist temples were known as kakekomi dera, runaway temples where abused women could take shelter before filing for divorce.[3][4]
In the West, crisis accommodation has been available for women for some time. Chiswick Women's Aid, the first widely known shelter for battered women was opened in London, in 1971 by Erin Pizzey.[5] Later others opened in places such as Christchurch, New Zealand, and Sydney with similar ideals in mind.[6] There are various claims about the first homeless shelter specifically for women. Among them are, Rosie's Place in Boston, Massachusetts, was opened in 1974 by Kip Tiernan; and in Atlanta, Elsie Huck started a shelter for Atlanta Union Mission.[7]
In America, the first hotline was established in St. Paul, Minnesota while the first women's shelter was established in Pasadena, California in 1976. By 1982, estimates placed the number of shelters somewhere between 300 and 700.[8]
Most funding for Women's Shelters in the United States come from the Federal Government, at about an average of forty to fifty percent in 2010.[9][10] These grants are administered through the Office on Violence Against Women, Department of Housing and Urban Development, and Department of Health and Human Services.[11] Many states have cut their funds for women's shelters. In 2009, Governor Schwarzenegger of California cut $16 million in state funding to domestic violence programs because of the state's budget deficit.[12] In late 2011 Washington governor Christine Gregoire released a budget proposal stripping all state funding for domestic violence and women's shelters across Washington State.[13] These types of budget cuts caused several women's shelters to close their doors, leaving women with no safe haven to escape violence. Local communities are now also taking it upon themselves to create a safe place for domestic violence refugees. In Grand Forks, British Columbia, a small community of less than 3,600, people organized the Boundary Women's Coalition, to support their local women's shelter.[14]
Care for children and male victims[edit]
|This section requires expansion. (December 2013)
Many victims of domestic violence seek to bring their children with them to remove them from the abusive situation. Women's shelters will often extend care for these children such as by providing housing, by clothing them, by feeding them, and by doing other such things.
Given the problem of domestic violence against men and boys, many shelter areas have tried to help them as well. In the U.S., for example, the Domestic Abuse Project (DAP) of Delaware County has campaigned to assist victims of both sexes for decades. DAP Executive Director Rita Connolly has remarked, "It's a tough thing for a guy to come in". Around three percent of DAP supported individuals have been men. Conolly has also commented that men that do come on "usually come in to get a female abuser out of the home for the sake of children" rather than for themselves.[15]
In the United Kingdom, many places have been opened to house male victims of domestic violence, or to house families barred from other shelters, such as women with older male children.[16] The United Kingdom men's rights group Parity asserts that men are unfairly treated in the provision of refuge places, stating that in England and Wales there are provisions for 7,500 refugee women but only 60 for men.[17] Other men's charities such as the DYN Project and the Men's Advice Line dispute the view that male-only refuges are necessarily wanted or needed by most victims, saying that the issue has been misrepresented out of misogyny rather than genuine concern.[18]
In Canada, approximately 8 percent of women's shelters are also open to adult men.[19]
In the United States, several women's shelters refuse refuge to men; this discrimination based on gender was challenged in the state of California (Blumhorst v. Haven Hills, et al., Los Angeles Superior Court Case No. BC291977). However, the case was rejected because the plaintiff lacked sufficient grounds for suing since he was not actually in an abusive relationship or needing shelter.[20]

text: With sweet potato as a binder, quinoa for protein, and meaty mushrooms for depth, this veggie burger beats anything in the frozen foods aisle. Don\u2019t obsess over getting these exact ingredients in this precise combination. Any nut you like will work here for crunch, and you\u2019re looking for a mix of bright herbs and enough cooked grains to make it substantial. For a simple salad, grill vegetables of your choice and serve with a hearty grain, such as quinoa or farro.\u00a0 If you\u0027re ever cornered by a bland bowl of vegetables or whole grains, throw a handful of herbs on it. They instantly make the meal more beautiful and flavorful\u2014without adding any salt, fat, or sugar. This energy-sustaining bread makes beautiful toast. If you don\u2019t have each and every grain listed, don\u2019t stress. Use what you\u2019ve got\u2014just bump up the quantity. Walnuts add crunch to this hearty salad. Regardless of the color of quinoa, make sure you rinse it before you cook it. Remix your morning oatmeal by adding quinoa to the pot. DIY energy bars\u2014so much better than anything you\u0027d find in a package. Simmering the quinoa in coconut milk adds a creamy sweetness. Radishes and asparagus add zippy crunch and freshness. If puffing the quinoa feels like too much, swap in some chopped toasted nuts to get a similar crunchy texture. We love the buttery, rich flavor that pistachios add to virtuous quinoa. Swap out traditional bulgur for quinoa in this healthy salad or side dish. Try not to eat all of the carrots before adding them to the salad. Pickled onions are a great foil for the sweet flavor of fresh peaches. When summer squash is in season, it\u0027s satisfying and sweet to eat raw. Jewel-like pomegranate seeds add a sweet-tart flavor\u2014and gorgeous color\u2014to this side dish. So virtuous, you could eat them for breakfast. Yes, making this vibrantly flavored quinoa fritter is a process. But it will redeem every lackluster veggie burger you\u2019ve suffered through. Add goji berries to the pot for a sweet and chewy surprise. Broccoli would be great in place of the cauliflower, too. These fritters take a cue from Peru with sweet-and-spicy peppers. Just add avocado, and you\u0027ve got the lunchtime grain bowl of our dreams.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Rosie was recently rescued form a high kill shelter. She was so scared she couldn't even open her eyes for a photo. Now she is in a foster home and her whole bottom waggles when she wags her tail! She is house trained, crate trained, learning how to walk on a leash and sleeps with a human and a kitty or 2! Rosie has a ton of love to share, and is now ready for her own home.
Her adoption fee is $275 to help cover the medical costs of getting ready for adoption.
For more information or our online adoption application, please email email@example.com
Include your location and a phone number for communication.
Rosie, a Germantown Corgi/Jack Russell Terrier dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Corgi/Jack Russell Terrier for sale in Germantown, or seeking a Corgi/Jack Russell Terrier dog from a breeder in Germantown.

New track from Omarion feat. Lil Wayne – Comfort
Lil Wayne is definitely in the running for the Oversaturation award, but I guess that's what happens when you're the hot thing for the moment. Omarion, on the other hand, disappeared for a minute after that last flop of an album with Bow Wow that shall remain nameless for now. I've never been a huge fan of Omarion as a solo artist; his albums never moved me, but he's had a few nice songs. Comfort is his latest, and I'm kinda feelin it;...Read More »

NOTE: This circle is no longer maintained in its present form but is still a good place to start if you are looking for entrepreneurs to follow and connect with here. It has mostly been replace with a Google+ community of the same name that you can find at http://goo.gl/ejG9P
This is the most recent update to the popular "entrepreneurs" circle that posted a few months ago. As you can see, it has gotten bigger than 500 people so I have had to split it alphabetically into two parts. These two circles includes the self employed, small business owners, independent contractors, small startup companies and pretty much anyone trying to make it outside of the traditional economy.
This is different from the other business circles of this type in that it doesn't include too many of the "celebrity entrepreneurs" and instead has mostly people with their own business or venture. There are more than 800 people here, but this has been reviewed extensively since it was last published -lots of fantastic new people have been added, and some have been dropped - mostly because they don't interact much. The end result is a circle of really awesome business people who actively interact with others here and have a small business or entreprenueral mindset.
This is a really diverse group and includes entrepreneurs of all stripes - some have well established ventures and are wildly successful, others are just getting started and haven't made it yet. As can be expected, it is a little tech heavy, but represents most industries and many different types of business. There are even a handful of people here who have traditional jobs, but seem to have an interest in small business issues and always seem welcome to help entrepreneurial efforts. The people in these circles post all manner of things - not just business, but all are smart and interesting people so I recommend that you check this out.
I do want to add the disclaimer that this is in no way "definitive" - there are millions of entrepreneurs on Google+ and this is just a tiny fraction of them - the ones I have curated. It seems that about two seconds after I publish this I always remember someone I should have included so just me know if you think you should be here. I republish this periodically and generally add everyone who comments on the post.
As with all circles of this size I would use some discretion in adding this - either update your existing circle, pick and choose the ones you like or use these as a trial circles - whatever works for you. I'm not even sure Google will let you add all this many names at once so you may have to come back if you want to add all of them. The technology for this is not perfect, but I am trying to do my part to help build a highly interconnected community of entrepreneurs here on Google+.
I hope you find the people in this circle interesting.
Reshares welcome and appreciated
IMPORTANT: You don't want to follow people based on where their last name fits in the alphabit do you? Make sure you also take a look at the second part of this list:

That's how it should be:
Wrath CorruptorEdit
Wrath Corruptors are level 70-72 hostile warlocks in Blade's Edge Mountains, who patrol in small groups through Forge Camp Wrath, and on the crystal plateau south up to Ogri'la. They wear full Plagueheart Raiment which makes their race hard to identify, but from their stature some appear to be orcs, others are undead similar to the Forsaken.
Sometimes wild creatures on the plateau appear to be affected by some kind of disease when near these groups, it appears as though they are trying to spread some new plague for the Burning Legion. They are as of yet not involved in any quests.
Vagath yells: Pitiful wretches. You dared to assault Illidan's temple? Very well, I shall make it your death bed!
Vagath yells: A miserable defense from Light-swollen fools. Xi'ri, I will consume you myself!
Akama yells: Now it's the time, Maiev! Unleash your wrath!
Maiev Shadowsong yells: I've waited for this moment for years. Illidan and his lapdogs will be destroyed!
Akama yells: Slay all who see us! Word must not get back to Illidan.
Vagath yells: You'ves sealed your fate, Akama! The master will learn of your betrayal!
Cerellean Windclaw says: Anaya...? Do my eyes deceive me? Is it really you?
Anaya says: The ages have been cruel to you and I, my love, but be assured, it is, and at long last we are reunited.
CW says: That the fates should be so cruel as to permit us only this after a thousand years apart...
CW says: Do you hate me, my love? That I was forced to destroy your living form, that your spirit be released from unhappy bondage.
A says: Let it not trouble your heart, beloved. You have freed me from slavery, and for that I love you all the more.
A says: Sadly, even this must be cut short... The ties that bind me to this world weaken, and pull me away...
CW says: No! Anaya... Anaya! Dont leave me! Please...
A says: Farewell, Cerellean, until we are joined once again...
Anaya's soft voice trails away into the mists: "Know that I love you always..."
CW says: How, my love? How will I find the strength to face the ages of the world without you by my side...

Last spring, Jason Sebastian Russo (pictured above), of the bands Common Prayer and Hopewell, was stricken by a stabbing pain on the left side of his mouth every time he tried to eat.
It was a cavity. But the 40-year-old musician—who hadn't been to a dentist since he was a kid, and last saw a regular doctor when he was in his early 20s—couldn't afford proper healthcare. Free clinics in Brooklyn could help with urgent medical needs, but not a bad tooth.
"I could've paid my rent money, or gotten my tooth filled, but not both," Russo says. "The new healthcare system is a lot cheaper than paying out of pocket for healthcare, but it's still out of reach for me. So I said, 'I'll just chew on the right side of my mouth till October.'"
Why October? Because he knew he was going to perform at the O+ Festival in Kingston, N.Y., where artists and musicians get free health care in return for performing and presenting their work to the community. He waited nearly a half a year, but in return for a set on stage with his band, Russo had his cavity filled, and now the pain is gone.
"This way I can have a home and get my tooth filled," he adds.
Russo is not alone: According to an April 2014 Gallup poll, there are still over 36 million people who don't have health insurance and easy access to health care (though the percentage of uninsured American adults has dropped to its lowest level in six years: 13.4 percent). O+ (pronounced "oh-positive" and named after the blood type) helps, but it didn't stem initially from an altruistic place. Initially it was about the music.
"The music definitely came first," says Dr. Tom Cingel, festival co-founder and a Kingston dentist. "There was this band called The Oxes that my roommate and I loved in dental school. I wondered if they'd ever come to upstate New York to play one day."
In spring 2010, Cingel had just returned from the Truck America music festival in the Catskills, bemoaning the lack of a similar event in Kingston —maybe even one the Oxes would play one day. Mutual friends soon put him in touch with local artist Joe Concra.
"I said, 'Let's implement this. Let's give the musicians free dental care—it'll basically leverage the festival,'" Cingel says. "They not only get a service, but, from my end dental-wise, they get prevention."
Russo remembers it slightly differently.
"I was in Joe's kitchen as the idea was unfolding. My band had just played the Truck Festival, and I said I wished I could play in Kingston," Russo says. To his surprise, Cingel took him up on the offer. "He even said, 'I'll clean your teeth for free!' And from that, all the bands came after that.'"
Regardless of how it started, Cingel reached out to the medical community in the region, and Concra reached out to the artists and musicians. When they put on the first O+ Festival on Columbus Day weekend in 2010, the event had drawn over 100 artists and musicians who received tens of thousands of dollars in healthcare. Last year, the event—now a three-day celebration—drew thousands of people and provided artists with some $100,000 in care.
Artists, who have to be approved by the organizers, have come from every corner of the country. The healthcare providers—including general practitioners, ophthalmologists, physical therapists, orthopedists, nurses, and, of course, dentists, are mostly from the region.
In return for dermatological appointment and a general check-up and dental work that was "far overdue," noted Baltimore-based street artist Gaia (pictured below, who doesn't reveal his real name because some of his work involves graffiti) created a massive mural of the goddess Artemis ascending from a stone quarry, the unmistakable New York City skyline looming above.
"I was attracted by the opportunity to catch up on some health concerns—and of course they provided me a remarkable six story [space] that I could not refuse," he says in an e-mail.
Gaia's "Artemis Emerging from the Quarry," made during the 2013 O+ Festival in Kingston, N.Y.
Now a volunteer-run nonprofit, O+ has expanded across the country, putting on a similar event in San Francisco last year. And there's no reason O+ Festivals can't come to arts-minded towns and cities elsewhere, Cingel says.
"If you wanted to put on a bluegrass festival in Indiana, and you're a healthcare provider, you can put on your own festival," he says. "As long as there are healthcare professionals willing to donate their time and watch a wonderful festival, this will happen. Think about it this way: You can purchase art to benefit an artist directly, or you can put on a festival to benefit the whole community."
"It's like doctors are the rock stars," Russo says. "They walk around and get cheered and dragged up onstage. I'll play my set, and then afterward I'll see that doctor rocking out, indistinguishable from the other hippies and musicians all about me, which is cool. In Kingston, doctors are pretty cool.
"And I get to actually set down with an actual doctor and talk about whatever's troubling me," he adds.
Cingel says he's pretty happy with the way things turned out for an idea partly hatched by a dentist still feeling the rush of post-concert euphoria—mostly.
"The community wants to see these artists perform, and these artists are getting healthcare—that's pretty successful right there. I'm really satisfied," he says.
But he never did manage to bring his favorite band The Oxes up to Kingston.
"One day I reached out to them, and they entertained the thought then said, 'We don't need the healthcare,'" he says.
"And also," he adds, "they've broken up."
The Kingston O+ Festival takes place Oct. 10-12 this year.

Corvette to get iPod Integration
Corvette, as well as 56 other models under the GM corporate umbrella will soon have a factory device called the "Personal Audio Link" that allows owners to hook up their iPods and play them through their factory audio systems. Rollout of the PAL will begin in October this year and by then of 2007, most GM vehicles should be equipped with the device.
The Personal Audio Link uses existing radio software and is integrated through the radio's digital XM Satellite Radio bank. XM does not have to be activated for the system to work. Similar to FM Modulated systems, the XM integration offers improved sound and contents (artist, title, genre) are viewable on the radio's display. The radio controls on the Corvette's steering wheel will allow drivers to adjust the system volume.
Personal Audio Link Key Features – At a Glance
- Seamlessly connects an iPod to the vehicle's factory installed audio system
- Charges iPod when ignition is on
- Choose from English, Spanish or French language for function displays
- Search and display music by genre, playlist, album, artist
- Use seek function to move forward or reverse within a song for up to 15 seconds
- Select "shuffle" function to mix music
- Sort music using "alphabetical jump" from A-Z list
- Sort and select Podcasts and audio books by title
- Control volume from steering wheel controls
- Personalize text display in dynamic mode (radio display scrolls through artist, album, title, song, time remaining, etc.) or static mode (fixed on one display element such as artist)
- Perform fast music searches using high-speed text display technology

Will this product work on a 2005 vette with NAV?
thank you
It sounds like it may be possible, although it may require another software update of older systems. We'll just have to wait and see until it becomes available.
I did up grade to the MP3 player on my Nav system. Do you think they may not upgrade the 2005 models with this ipod feature?
By reading the description, the Personal Audio Link sounds like a hardward device that connects to the NAV, and then you plug the ipod into it. My guess is that there will be a software update, but we won't know that for sure until the device is available.
If I order a 2008 now with a NAV, can I request the PAL option and is it available now. I saw where it said it will be available in October?

The perception of graft and influence is far greater than the reality.
does anyone know any politicians?

- Wake Up Jeff! (American Version)
Album Appearances
- Yummy Yummy (American Version)
TV Appearances
- The first time we hear The Chase in The Wiggles Movie, it sounds slightly different than the version heard in TV Series 1 and Yummy Yummy. The second time it is played, it is another alternate version, this one played on the organ.
- In the Series 1 intro, there is a balloon chase. But the full thing has never been found.
- The CD versions runs 4 minutes longer than any of the video versions and fades out at the end.

"That was disappointing because that was brought up to the officials before the game that they were going to do that," Mularkey said in his post-game news conference. "They were going to shift illegally, not illegally, but line up and shift with the intent to draw the offense offsides and blurt out a cadence as they're doing it.To be fair, Tom Brady complained about this same sort of thing - the blurting out a cadence - back in 2010 when the Patriots were taking a knee against the Colts at the end of the game.However, as Mularkey points out, this isn't illegal.

Sedna LbNA # 27754
|Placed Date
|Dec 17 2006
|Spring, TX
On our most recent trip to visit family in Texas we wanted to leave behind a letterbox or two, hopefully some that would be unique to southern boxers. So a northern spirit awaits your discovery. The first is Sedna.
Sedna is a spirit of northern peoples in Canada, Alaska and Greenland. She is part woman, part seal; she can be both malevolent and benevolent. So be respectful when you pay her a visit!
She is hiding in the woods of Mercer Arboretum, on the west side of Aldine-Westfield Rd. From the parking lot near the playground head for the easterly most trail. When you reach the first trail map head 90 degrees. At the second trail map head 0 degrees. When you reach a bench have a seat and admire the many tall trees. Sedna is hiding behind one of these. But which one? Choose the tree at 150 degrees and 15 feet away. Prepare to meet the mistress of the northern oceans.

How to compensate for onepole~ delay?
Last week was my first exposure to Pure Data. Yesterday I downloaded Max. I'm a C++ programmer by profession (computer games) with a strong interest in experimental sound synthesis.
For my fist experiment, I'm tinkering with the Karplus-Strong algorithm. I'm sure most of you are familiar with it. It's a tapin~/tapout~ delay with a onepole~ in the feedback loop. You have seen it a thousand times.
I noticed that when I reduce the cutoff frequency of the onepole~, the pitch goes down, and my notes sound flat. This is especially noticeable in the higher registers.
I speculate that the onepole~ introduces an additional delay, that gets longer as the cut off frequency gets lower.
Am I right? If that is the case, I think I could keep the pitch stable by reducing the length of the tapin~/tapout~ to compensate for the delay that is introduced by the onepole~.
But that would require me to compute the delay that is introduced by the onepole~ filter, as a function of the cut off frequency. How do I do that?
the onepole delay would not change– by definition and design it never changes– but there would be artifacts to do with tapin/out sub-sample interpoloation algorithm (or lack thereof) and other artifacts to do with the feedback delay limited by the signal vector size (which you can change). if you're using max 6 then using gen to get around this particular problem. A compensatory delay is not going to solve it.
Maybe post an example patch to illustrate the cutoff freq of the onepole affecting pitch– I suspect it's more like a timbral change affecting the perception of pitch change
Ok, I'll try to post an example. (Never done this before… hope this works)

+1 for perception theory
Definitely not perception. I added a 440 Hz reference tone to make sure I'm not imagining it. Check out my demo patch. Reference tone is on the right slider, string sound on the left. When the cut off is at 10 KHz, there is barely any beating. As you move the cut off to 3 kHz, there is a distinctly audible beating between the two frequencies, as the string resonator goes flat.

I can't hear any beating in your example (admittedly listening through laptop speakers) , but have a look at this adaptation of your patch: is there any beating here? Make sure your vector size is 64 or less (for 44100hz sample rate) to get the 440 hz fundamental.
I'd say the drop in pitch you hear is very much perceptual, but there might be something else going on to cause the beating…

Thanks Terry.
Yes, in your version, if (for example) you set the dials at 8k and 4k respectively, I can clearly hear that the two strings are out of tune with each other.
I tried vector size 1, and even sample rate 96k, with the same result.
I think I understand what is going on. Sorry my math skillz are poor, I don't speak the Greek letter lingo, but I can explain in programming terms.
Consider the original KS algorithm. Remember they did not use a filter, but rather they averaged the samples at [length] and [length+1]. A poor man's low pass filter. But averaging two adjacent samples is what I would do to linearly interpolate delay at non-integer positions. In other words, KS were reading the interpolated sample at [length+0.5]. That's half a sample longer than the intended string length. Hardly noticeable when your string is long, but the shorter it gets, the more significant the error becomes.
And I'm sure that onepole~ does something essentially similar. I bet onepole~ has a one or two sample delay inside of it, and combines the input with the delayed samples according to some set of coefficients. That's how a digital filter works, right? Those extra one or two samples of delay in the filter make the string just a smidgen longer.
Yup. Check out the helpfile for onepole~ and biquad~ together. (onepole~ is really just a degenerate biquad~) Onepole~ is recursive with a one-sample delay in the feedback. Onepole~ has two coefficients a0 (undelayed) and b1 (recursive).
From looking at the help file, I noticed a shift in the magnitude between the a0 and b1 coefficients around 3-4k; at that point the absolute magnitude of a0 starts to exceed that of b1. Because the feedback is more pronounced than the input before this point, the delay line is functionally longer (as in it takes several iterations for the input to affect the output substantially), and this probably accounts for what you are experiencing. (in essence, it's not only the length of the delay (1 sample), but also the weighting)
Also, something that could (and I'm not sure that it is the culprit here, but it could…) also affect this is that digital filters introduce phase shifts. (see the onepole~ help patch) In a feedback situation this becomes more pronounced because you have a series of phase shifts from the repetitions.
KS is nice for its simplicity, but definitely has its limitations. It seems like their lowpass scheme might be a simple way of reducing the weighting issues.
I altered your patch again to have both output signals going into the spectroscope, and you can see it's not beating due to frequency difference (where all the harmonics would beat at the same rate), but most likely to do with phase response differences, as the second partial is the one that varies in amplitude mostly.

Thanks Peter. I bet that if I could compute the phase shift at the fundamental frequency (the one I'm trying to play) then I could shorten the delay line by just the right amount so it ends up resonating at the correct frequency.
But that involves math that is above my head. And it's not tremendously important. I'm just playing around.
I managed to make a few nice additions to the KS algorithm. I can now morph from a string-like resonance to a pipe-like resonance.
But I think the more important part of what makes the KS algorithm into a playable instrument, is what you do with the excitation. Picking, plucking, bowing, blowing, bouncing… And how this is hooked up to velocity and midi controllers. That will be my project for next weekend.
Thanks everyone.
For stuff like karplus-strong, you should probably be looking at gen~. In fact, look at /Max6/examples/gen/gen~.karplus-strong.maxpat .
Eventually the vector size of any delay object is going to be more of a pain in the neck than you want to deal with.
Also, be sure to mess around with the impulse that you send in. It can affect the sound drastically. If you "lowpass" the impulse itself…
I'd second what mzed said re: gen~. Also, if you're checking out physical modelling, be sure to look at the old percolate library; it's open-source and has plenty of fun things to mess with.
Strangely, that gen~.karplus-strong.maxpat sample appears to have the same CPU load as my own version: 14% (on an iMac with a 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7, Max sample rate 96k and vector size 1). And my patch does more than the gen~ sample (the one that I posted was stripped way down)
to measure the cpu usage of a gen~ object you need to give it the '@dumpoutlet 1' argument, turn on 'cpumeasure 1' and then poll it with the 'getcpu' message. explained in the helpfile. the cpu usage in the minimixer or the audio status is of all of max. it would be great if the minimixer only computed local cpu usage, indeed. however, if you are seeing a huge cpu use like that for the gen~ example KS patch something is wrong. my cpu use for that patch is very very low.
thanks for a quality thread rpieket.
CPU usage of gen~ == percerption theory #2
@Ron make sure you set the signal vector size back to a reasonable value (64 or more). Gen~ can do feedback loop of just one sample delay inside so you don't have to lower the signal vector size of the entire patcher do obtain high frequencies with the karplus strong.

Google+ launches in-app photo editor
Google has recently rolled out an update to it's Google+ app that features a powerful in-app photo editing tool thanks to its acquisition of Nik Software back in September.
The new photo editor features basic editing components like rotating and cropping, but the real magic lies in the filters. Preloaded Instagram-style filters line the bottom of the screen, but once a filter is selected the user has a whole new range of customization options. Sweeping up and down lets you select options like the style strength, brightness, saturation, contrast, texture coverage, and others depending on the filter. The most surprising part is how simple it is. With so many options, one would think the photo editing system would be clunky and complicated. But instead it is really quite simple.
Instagram popularized the idea of having a pocket dark room, and now tools like Google's photo editor are making the concept a standard in any form of photo sharing.

Good Pub fare
The accommodation was good average for an Inn, the welcome was virtually non-existent and reminiscent of the Two Ronnies in their "Fork Handles" sketch.
Food was typical pub food with a local twist. A pleasant enough place to stay for our purpose of visiting Falmouth University.

Welcome and both meals,evening and cooked breakfast were of the highest order.
Reception for free WiFi was excellant. Unfortunately Plume of Feathers is much nearer the A30 than I realised. I was woken by traffic noise at 6.30 am. Shame. Maybe new PVC windows and adding lined curtains would help sound proof the room for a better nights sleep.

shown a marked reluctance to expose their domestic service sectors to the full blast of foreign competition. This is perhaps not surprising given the political sensitivity of the sectors in question. Liberalisation is further complicated by the fact that barriers to trade in services invariably take a different form to trade in goods. Mostly, they result from different regulatory practices in different countries. Liberalisation, therefore, necessitates each country making specific commitments to alter some national laws. The consequences of any such commitments are often difficult to measure, so that countries can never be sure that the concessions that they make are matched by equivalent benefits as a result of similar commitments by other trading partners. Trade in services will remain a major item on the agenda of multilateral trade negotiations in the next century. Pressures will increase from the western industrialised countries for faster progress. To the extent that these negotiations are successful, trade in services can be expected to become more important as a component of world trade in the future.
Few conventional textbooks on Trade include a separate chapter on Service Trade, as this is assumed to be governed by the same principles as trade in goods. However, one exception to this is:
Greenaway D. and Winters A., Surveys in International Trade (Oxford: Basil Blackwell, 1994).
which contains an excellent chapter (Chapter 10) by A. Sapir and C. Winters on service trade. Another useful reference is:
Porter M. The Competitive Advantage of Nations (London: Macmillan, 1990).
This also contains an excellent chapter on the internationalisation of service activity with some useful case studies.
On the liberalisation of trade in services, the following are essential reading:
Nicolaides P. Liberalising Services Trade, Chatham House Papers, (London: RIIA/Routledge, 1989).
although the book pre-dates the signing of the GATS Agreement. An additional source is:
Trebilock M.T. and Howse R., The Regulation of International Trade, 2nd edn. (London and New York: Routledge, 1995).
which has excellent chapters on trade in services and TRIPs.
A more recent source on trade liberalisation dealing exclusively with financial services is:
Key S.J., Financial Services in the Uruguay Round and the WTO, Occasional Paper 54 (Washington DC: Group of Thirty).
For statistical information on trade in services, see the WTO's Annual Report.
For information on the service sector in the U.K. economy, the reader should consult:
Julius DeA. and Butler J., Inflation and Growth in a Service Economy (Bank of England Quarterly Bulletin, November, 1998).
