Throttling priest had internet murder fantasy
Moans that it was between him and God
Patrick Anthony Russo, 44, was a paying subscriber to Necrobabes.com, a Web site that offers "erotic horror for adults" which involved providing staged photos and video of usually nude women appearing to be strangled, suffocated, hanged and drowned.
According to news.com, it was partly because of his Necrobabes.com membership, Russo was found guilty of the November 15, 2001 strangulation of Diane Holik.
Russio appealed on the grounds that police exceeded their computer-search authorisation given and his Necrobabes.com excerpts should not have been admitted as evidence.
He also complained that his AOL search for "asphyx" searches should not have been used as evidence too.
The Texas Court of Appeals rejected those arguments and left his sentence intact. µ

Oh Hey World API: The Quick Way To Let Everyone Know You've Arrived
When travelling, the first thing on the list of things to do after arriving at a destination is to get in touch with certain people to let them know you're in town or just that you've arrived safely. Whether it's sending a quick text, sending an email or 'checking in' on a social network, technology has made this easy enough to achieve while on the go. Oh Hey World is a service that makes use of all these options in the form of a simple application that allows users to share their location across multiple social networks, via text and email, with just one click.

This means that Virtual Earth API will be no more -- it is now officially called the Bing Maps API (we've added a new Bing Maps API profile).

D'Souza: Obama Is Coming For Your Couches, Cars
Dinesh D'Souza came to CPAC today to promote his new movie, "America," and explain how President Obama is implementing an anti-American, anti-capitalist agenda.
D'Souza told the conservative conference that Obama believes "the free market system is based on theft" and seemed to be under the impression that Obama came up with the entire system of taxation: "Think about this, it's almost like here you are at home, you're watching TV, and a bunch of government guys show up at your door and they start taking your furniture and taking your car and you're like, 'What are you doing?' They're like, 'You know your paycheck that you got last month? You didn't earn that, you stole it, it doesn't really belong to you.' This is what, in a sense, we are up against."

LAPD motorcycle officer critical after crash
The motorcycle officer was stopped at a traffic light when a red SUV rammed him from behind and pinned him to the car in front
By Frank Shyong
Los Angeles Times
LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Police Department officer critically injured in a traffic accident Saturday evening is a 26-year veteran of the force, authorities said.
LAPD Cmdr. Andy Smith said the officer, whose name is not being released, has been riding motorcycles for about 20 years.
The motorcycle officer was stopped at a traffic light at the intersection of Lankershim Boulevard and Saticoy Street when a red SUV rammed him from behind and pinned him to the car in front.
The incident occurred at around 5:30 p.m. on Saturday, Smith said.
The officer remained in critical condition late Saturday night at a local hospital, where he is undergoing surgery. He is surrounded by his family, and about 50 police officers are awaiting news about his condition, Smith said.
The driver and a passenger in the vehicle that struck the officer from behind are being detained for questioning and possible criminal charges, Smith said.

Brown Sugar-Glazed Grilled Plums
Plump, sweet, and juicy—these are the best-tasting plums. Late summer brings with it all the different types of plums—colors of white, black, red and shapes of round and oval. There are too many varieties to list here. And don't forget pluots, a cross between plums and apricots. I love to eat them fresh—and you know they're good when the juices run down your arm. But as you've seen by reading here, I also adore plums in simple, homey desserts.
Instead of the typical preparation, these plums are grilled. Grilling fruit is not a typical technique, but it's great for bringing out the flavor of fruit, especially when it's a bit underripe. Imagine pineapple slices, peaches, or nectarines on the grill. These fruits nicely caramelize, especially when they're brushed with a sugar mixture. And what goes better with warm fruit than ice cream? This is a dessert to savor spoonful by spoonful.
With just three ingredients, this recipe is almost a nonrecipe. Brush the plum halves with a mixture of sugar and butter that caramelizes on the grill. Serve with ice cream, like my lavender-crème fraîche ice cream, which lends a unique flavor to the dessert. Take the opportunity to grill some fruit before summer ends!
Brown Sugar-Glazed Grilled Plums with Lavender-Crème Fraîche Ice Cream
3 tablespoons light-brown sugar
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
6 plums, halved and pitted
canola oil, for brushing
Lavender-Crème Fraîche Ice Cream, for serving
Heat a gas grill or grill pan at medium high.
Combine the brown sugar and butter in a small bowl. Brush plum halves all over with sugar-butter mixture.
Moisten a paper towel with a little oil and brush grates.
Grill plums, cut-side down, until slightly charred and softened, about 8 minutes. Serve 2 plum halves with a scoop of ice cream per person. Yield: 6 servings.

This is an amazing hike with three waterfalls and gorgeous views of Honolulu, Kaneohe, Kailua, Diamond Head, and Ka'au Crater

First off, the loop is about 7.7 miles and it should be rated Hard. Lots of mud. Officially my favorite so far. Great views and scenery!

It was fun at first as it was my first real hike (bad idea for a first hike to go all the way to the top). But being a bigger guy had its disadvantages trying to move fast and agile through obstacles. I'll be back when I'm in better shape so it's easier to get up there and do the whole loop. Beyond all the stops to take pictures my group did. You should be prepared to climb a lot and maybe get some hiking cleats to go over your shoes if you're not as proficient or experienced as it will help when it gets nasty out there (it rained a bit on and off making it slick in a lot of spots beyond the natural moisture of the water coming off the falls. Bring snacks, light lunch and plenty of water for your trek. The Moore you hydrate and replenish the food you're burning. The lighter your load will become.
The clouds kept rolling in when I made it to the top so I couldn't see beyond 10 or 15 feet. But without going all the way up I found some amazing spots to see from the west heading back towards the south-east of the island. I would say a beginner should stop at the second falls and go no farther than the bottom of the third falls.
Though I got stranded out there and didn't walk out until 9PM (long story short, if you're a slow walker or have and medical issues. You should start your way up no later than 8 or 9 am if you plan to go to the top.). Thanks to Chris who came with flash lights as my phone battery was at 7% when he found me near elevation marker 984 headed out in the dark. A lot of the ropes need to be replaced up there as well as some of the over brush cleared. If you don't like dirt, then stay away. But there is a pool you can jump in on the way out to rinse and just have a change of clothes, lol! Chris told me he and his friends do it sometimes! Have fun!

super good hike, had tons of fun. preferable to wear shoes that have good grips on them. the view at the top is amazing as it allows you to capture the whole view of the island

Challenging doing the whole hike around the crater. Spectacular views on top of the crater rim. Lots of mud, even on dry days. Poor choice if someone doesn't like heights. Did the whole loop in a little over four hours. Really enjoyed it.

Challenging hike.
Tip: You can shave off some time and mileage by heading left at the top of the 3rd waterfall. You are still afforded beautiful crater views without having to scale the entire crater.

Awesome hike! Moderate difficulty if you're out of shape, then again you're hiking so maybe you're somewhat fit! Rock climbing, ropes if you choose to use them, the top view is worth the effort!

While the trail was amazing and included several river crossings, two anazing waterfalls, vertical climbs, crater, 360 panoramic views of the island from the the ridge and much more, it was VERY DIFFICULT. To think this is moderate trail is just wrong. The trail is wet and slippery, there are many vertical climbs that require ropes, it is steep and narrow and just HARD. Don't do it alone but if you are up to a BIG challenge you won't be disappointed.

This hike is amazing and pretty actually. I would suggest gloves but only because there's lots of rope. Do it!

Very challenging and worth the effort when you get to the the northern rim of the crater and can see 360 degrees around the island.
Our GPS logged 6 miles exactly to run the trail clockwise, approaching the crater up the southern finger vice coming up the river. Doing the trail clockwise is much easier.
And please DON'T bring kids.

This is a TOUGH hike. A review online from 2010 called it intermediate among Honolulu area hikes, and called it the best hike in the area. 6 miles, 6 hours for me yesterday. Awesome, glad I did it, be ready it is long and has some very steep sections.

Amazing hike! NOT EASY. The crater at the top is steep and very narrow but fun over all. This part is in the sun a lot so bring sunscreen and plenty of water. Keep your wits about you, this one tougher then mentioned above especially if you include the crater rim.
One of the best falls hikes I've done here. Muddy slippery wet and awesome. Start early so you can play and take in the scenery.

Warning: This is not an easy hike. It's muddy and a lot of erosion on the way to the third waterfall. After the third waterfall, follow the trail to the right and it's nothing but rope climbing for 1,400 to the tallest peak of the crater rim. Follow the rim around until you come to a fork near where you started the rim, and take a right. Marked with orange and pink ties, this trail will bypass the waterfalls and eventually end back at the creek and about 15 mins from your car. Bring lots and lots of water, as well as sunscreen. While scaling the rim you are in nothing but sun! Also this hike will take you 5-6 hours if you complete the duration, be sure to come prepared and start early! Most of all this is one of the best hikes on the island! Three waterfalls, a lesser known crater, and views of the south and east side of the island!! :)

I have built my system 3+ years ago and paid dearly. Even the Q6600 is famous for extreme overclocking, I never done that. I need stable system over faster unpredictable system. I do lots of video editing, photo/graphics work. This configuration has always been constant in providing powerfull operations. Over the years I ran Windows XP Pro, Windows 2003, Windows 7 x64 Ultimate. All these operating systems installed drivers for all components.
Idecided to upgrade my system, and that's why I am selling them. I am selling them as aSET as I knowyou you will not havea headachefinding components. You just drop in a HDD or SSD, Video card andpower supply, and you have a fast running system.
I bought 4GB 2x2GB OCZ RAM as a matching pair - 1066MHz from NewEgg, they have lifetime warranty. Never had any issue, never had any error when checked with Memory Checking software.
The Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3 was the HOT item, pioneer in new kind of Motherboard. It has most features that any PRO would want. Enough expansion slots, SATA/RAID/IDE, built in 7.1 Audio, Lots of USB ports, IEEE-1394 (FireWire) Header. *This board doesn't have OnBoard Video.
I also have this ArcticCooler CPU Cooling fan. Instead of default PUSH PIN system, I bought custom screw set to hold the FAN tightly with the CPU. This fan keeps the CPU really cool.
Once again, I am selling this system for someone who wants to build a robust, powerfull and very reliable system. It's performance still can beat lower level i3/i5, and not too slow compared to i7. Feel confident, this system will run for years. If you put 2x2GB more RAM, you can actually run a Server or DataCenter on it. If you are gamer, you already know what's you are getting - lot's of over clocking space for you.
You Will Get:-Intel Q6600 Quad Core ProcessorGA-965P-DS3 ATX Motherboard, 1x SATA cable, 1xIDE Cable, Driver CDs, Book (If I can find it)2x2GB OCZ RAM DDR2 1066MHzArcticCooler CPU Fan/Cooler
I do not have the original boxes. Most probably I will not dis-assemble the items. I will just put them all intact in a bigger box and ship to you. Unless you want it differently, Let me know.
Please feel free to ask any questions.
Terms & Conditions:1. All items are in running condition, guaranteed against DOA.2. All itmes can also work as individual in other systems, if disassembled.3. However, No warranty/Ttech Support from me.4. Ships within 5 days, USPS Priority - ANYWHERE IN USA (and CANADA too)5. 5% charge applies if returned (within 7 calendar days after delivery)

Tags: SAHEL, CRISIS IN THE SAHEL, BURKINA FASO, CAMEROON, CHAD, GAMBIA, MALI, MAURITANIA, NIGERIA, NIGER, SENEGAL, WESTERN AFRICA, SITUATION REPORT,
Apr 2014
- Despite the 2013 harvest in the Sahel being equivalent to the last five years average, more than 25 million people remain food insecure in 2014. The agricultural production of the poorest households in 2013 was insufficient to restore their livelihoods and covered only their nutritional needs until March 2014. They now depend entirely on markets to access food.
- In order to reduce the food insecurity burden in the Sahel, additional and timely efforts are needed to strengthen the livelihoods and enhance the resilience of poor and very poor households in the region. In 2014, FAO is appealing for over USD 115 million, of which USD 74 million is needed by the end of April 2014 to adequately respond to the main agriculture campaign.
- In 2013, FAO received USD 26.5 million for its operations in the Sahel. Thanks to these contributions, FAO assisted more than 2.5 million beneficiaries by supporting food and livestock production, as well as providing livelihood protection and technical assistance.

Two million pilgrims taking part in Hajj at Mecca reach Mount Arafat
| updated at xx
Hundreds of thousands of Muslim pilgrims have been arriving at Mount Arafat in Saudi Arabia for the end of the Hajj pilgrimage.
Arriving on foot, by bus and by train, they came from from nearby Mina where most had spent the night following in the footsteps of Prophet Mohammed 14 centuries ago.
There are about two million Muslims taking part in Hajj , the numbers down on last year.The Saudi government has imposed a 20% reduction on quotas of people from abroad and 50% within Saudi Arabia over fears of infections from the MERS virus. There have been more than 50 deaths from the disease in the country. Later on Monday the pilgrims will have prayers and listen to a sermon from Saudi cleric Sheikh Abdulaziz al-Sheikh.

The present invention relates to an ultrasonic flow meter having a measurement tube through which gas/liquid flows and having ultrasonic emission/reception transducers, which, for a "W" shaped ultrasonic path with multiple reflections provided within the measurement tube, are located at a given spacing from one another on a common side wall of the measurement tube.
Flow meters operated by ultrasound are known from the prior art and are proposed in PCT application PCT/EP90/02178 filed 13 Dec. 1990 and in the parallel patent applications GR 89 P 2014 DE and GR 89 P 2015 DE. The content of the specifications of these applications is an additional component part of the present invention specification.
The flow meters consist essentially of a tube through which the pertinent medium flows and within the interior of which an acoustic path extends. The influencing of the ultrasound by the flowing medium is the parameter from which, for example, the volume of gas or liquid flowing through the tube cross section per unit time is to be ascertained. Such flow meters are suitable, for example, as gas flow meters such as, for example, as domestic gas meters.
The aforementioned acoustic measurement path is formed between an acoustic emission transducer and an acoustic reception transducer. The emission transducer and reception transducer are fitted in a manner known per se to the side wall of the tube through which the medium flows, and specifically in such a manner that an acoustic beam is passed from the emission transducer into the interior of the tube, with a component oriented parallel to the direction of flow. Oblique injection of the ultrasound is the method in widespread use; in this case, the ultrasound is reflected at the opposite wall of the tube and executes, for example with three successive reflections at the inner wall of the tube, an in total W-shaped path between the emission transducer and the reception transducer.
The evaluation of the influencing of the ultrasound by the flow takes place, as a rule, in such a manner that the measurement path is traversed by the ultrasound alternately in a downstream and upstream direction, and the difference value resulting from the influencing of the flow, for the two ultrasound measurements, is the evaluation signal. Thus, the emission transducer and reception transducer are used interchangeably in terms of operation.
The aforementioned W-shaped path is preferred as against an only V-shaped path, because advantages can be achieved with a predetermined spacing, axial when related to the tube axis, between the emission transducer and the reception transducer. It is also possible to provide an ultrasound path with, instead of three reflections, even more reflections, especially an odd number thereof. In this case, it is essential that the ultrasonic transducers do not directly "see" one another, i.e. that ultrasound does not pass without reflection from the respective emission transducer to the pertinent reception transducer.
If use is made of the W-shaped ultrasound path 21 in an arrangement for example as shown in FIG. 1, in which the lower and upper tube wall in the Figure are designated by 4 and 5 and the transducers are designated by 11 and 12, then a signal transmission unavoidably also takes place via the V-shaped path 22 between the emission transducer and the reception transducer. This is based on the fact that the radiation lobes of the emission transducer and the reception lobe of the reception transducer cannot be directed with an arbitrarily selectable degree of sharpness.
In the two aforementioned older patent applications, proposals have been made for the most extensive possible suppression of a parasitic signal of the V-shaped path as compared with the useful signal of the W-shaped path. On the one hand, this involves the use of a markedly rectangular tube cross section, with a ratio of height H to width B exceeding 2:1 to 15:1, preferably 5:1 to 6:1. In addition, such a rectangular cross section has the advantage of acting in a homogenizing manner on the ultrasonic transirradiation of the respective flow cross section. In the other application, it is proposed, in the case of a measurement tube having a not necessarily rectangular cross section, to arrange the transducers 11 and 12 of FIG. 1 in an appropriately modified manner in a "misdirected position". In FIG. 1, the transducers are disposed with respect to their axial spacing from one another and with respect to the angular orientation of their radiatively emitting surfaces 111 and 112 so that the end sections of the W-shaped path do not coincide with the respective normal to these surfaces 111, 112. The misorientation consists in dimensioning the axial spacing to be greater, and/or arranging the transducers 11, 12 with their surfaces 111, 112 "misoriented" at an angle, i.e. tilted, in comparison with the angular orientation of the transducers of FIG. 1. It is also possible to provide these two measures in combination.
The object of the present invention is to provide a further measure for the suppression of the signal of the parasitic V-shaped path as compared with the useful signal of the W-shaped path. In particular, the object is to achieve the most effective possible, up to virtually complete, suppression of the parasitic signal.
This object is achieved by the following described ultrasonic flow meter. In order to reduce/eliminate the disturbing signal of a parasitic "V"-shaped ultrasonic path which, as is known, occurs within the measurement tube, in the interior of the tube at a tube wall, which is opposite a tube wall provided with the transducers and at which a reflection of a V-shaped path occurs, in the region of the reflection of the V-shaped path an elevation/depression is provided that extends over one half component of this reflection region. The elevation/depression is on the inner wall of the tube and has a step height. The step height is dimensioned so that for ultrasonic radiation of the "V"-shaped path extinguishing interference occurs between the radiation reflected at the half component on the one hand and the radiation reflected at the remaining half component of this reflection region on the other hand.
The features of the present invention which are believed to be novel, are set forth with particularity in the appended claims. The invention, together with further objects and advantages, may best be understood by reference to the following description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, and in which:
FIG. 1 and 1a are cross-sectional views of an ultrasonic flow meter according to the present invention;
FIG. 2a is a plan view of one embodiment of an inner wall of the FIG. 1 flow meter at the site of reflection of the V-shaped path;
FIG. 2b depicts the splitting of the reflection at the FIG. 2a site;
FIG. 3a is a plan view of another embodiment of an inner wall of the FIG. 1 flow meter at the site of reflection of the V-shaped path;
FIG. 3b depicts the splitting of the reflection at the FIG. 3a site;
FIG. 4a is a plan view of another embodiment of an inner wall of the FIG. 1 flow meter at the site of reflection of the V-shaped path;
FIG. 4b depicts the splitting of the reflection at the FIG. 4a site;
FIG. 5a is a plan view of another embodiment of an inner wall of the FIG. 1 flow meter at the site of reflection of the V-shaped path;
FIG. 5b depicts the splitting of the reflection at the FIG. 5a site.
As is evident from FIG. 1, the axial position of the reflection locations of the W-shaped path, and specifically of the reflections at the tube wall opposite to the transducers, is different from the corresponding reflection location of the V-shaped path.
An attempt has already been made to provide at the location of the reflection of the V-shaped path at the inner wall of the tube sound-absorbing components such as, for example, a felt covering. However, such a measure has proved to be disadvantageous to the flow and also lacked the required service life. Furthermore, the attainable signal attenuation was only moderate. Structuring cf the inner wall of the tube, specifically to avoid directional reflection, also does not lead to any result useful in practice.
The invention is based on the idea of achieving, by means of interference, a to a large extent total extinction of the acoustic signal of the V-shaped path. According to the invention, an insertion is undertaken in the interior of the tube at the tube wall at the pertinent site of the reflection of the V-shaped path, which insertion splits up that surface of the inner wall of the tube which enters into consideration for the purposes of reflection into at least two, but preferably only two components or halves. Preferably, the original inner wall of the tube forms one of the halves, and the other half is the surface, raised by the amount D (see FIG. 1a), of a packing of the inner wall of the tube. It is also possible to provide a corresponding depression which, however, is more onerous in preparation. FIGS. 2a, 2b, 3a, 3b, 4a, 4b and 5a, 5b show examples of such a splitting-up, and specifically FIGS. 2a to 5a in plan view onto the inner wall at the site of the reflection of the V-shaped path and FIGS. 2b to 5b the associated sections a and a'. These representations reveal the significance of the dimension D, without this requiring any further explanations. In FIGS. 2a, 3a, 4a and 5a a part of the V-shaped path 22 has been shown. For the surface components X and Y there are formed, after reflection, two parallel ultrasound paths 22a and 22b. The thickness is dimensioned as a function of the angle β so that these two paths 22a and 22b are in extinguishing interference with one another. Preferably, the first-order interference is used.
The component X and/or Y can, per se, be split up in terms of area once more, as is shown, for example, by FIGS. 3b and 5b. In this manner, it is possible to achieve an even greater measure of reliable extinction. In any event, it is necessary to apply the rule that the intensity reflected at the surface component X must be equal to the intensity reflected at the surface component Y; in this case, it has to be borne in mind that a non-uniform intensity distribution prevails within the total reflecting surface.
At acoustic wavelengths of lambda approximately equal to 2 mm, corresponding to a frequency of 170 kHz in air, the step height Dk is smaller than/equal to 1 mm with customary dimensions for the angle beta. As regards the flow, an insertion of such dimensions in the interior of the tube is insignificant and leads to at most a slight disruption of the flow. The explanation "interference of acoustic waves" given hereinbelow is to be taken as a basis for the dimensioning.
The following is applicable:
where c is the velocity of sound in the respective medium, f is the transducer frequency and β is the wavelength in the medium.
Two acoustic waves of the same direction of propagation, frequency and amplitude extinguish one another if they possess a path difference of ##EQU1## In the case of normal incidence, this path difference δ is achieved for the spacing ##EQU2## of the two reflection planes, i.e. at k=0 for D=λ/4.
Having regard to the angle of incidence β of the signal of the V-shaped path applicable in the measurement tube, the height D required for extinction is computed from: ##EQU3## or, having regard to the various media, may be represented as: ##EQU4##
This interference phenomenon is used to suppress the signal of the V-shaped path. To this end, the direction of propagation can be regarded as being almost constant for all participating acoustic waves. For the sake of simplicity, only the center frequency of the transducer resonance has been taken into consideration in the present treatment.
On account of the large jump in impedance from air to solid materials where sound is concerned, a partial reflection at the upper and lower surface of a thin layer is not possible (such as, for example, in optics at thin layers). Accordingly, the wave front is not reflected for example at a uniformly coated surface, but the reflecting surface is subdivided into two regions of equal surface content, of which one surface is displaced by the offset D in relation to the other (FIG. 2a and 2b) and thus a path difference is generated. The phase jump of λ/2 upon reflection at the denser medium occurs in this case with both components, and accordingly does not need to be taken into consideration. The path difference leads, in the direction towards the reception transducer, to the mutual extinction of the two components of the signal of the V-shaped path which are reflected at the two partial surfaces, and thus to its effective suppression.
Typical values for a measurement tube to be used here are Lm =174 mm, r=7 mm and h=30 mm, as well as α=35�, and this gives β=21.4�. At room temperature, the velocity of sound in air is c=340 m/s and in methane c=440 m/s. For transducers with r=7 mm, a radial resonant frequency f≈170 kHz is in practice specified. According to (1), this gives for extinction of the signal of the V-shaped path the possible elevations Dk in air D0 =0.182 mm, D1 =0.546 mm, D2 =0.912 mm, D3 =1.277 mm and in methane D0 =0.236 mm, D1 =0.708 mm, D2 =1.180 mm, D3 =1.652 mm. For a good suppression in both media, and for all velocities of sound in the intermediate range, it is possible to select, for example D˜0.2 mm or D˜0.6 mm. Depending upon the particular requirements, it is also possible to match D precisely to a specified medium. The aforementioned values of D signify an only slight insertion into the flow. For ultrasonic transducers with r=10.5 mm and f˜130 kHz, the result is β=23.9�. According to (1), this gives in air D0 =0.265 mm, D1 =0.796 mm, D2 =1.326 mm, and in methane D0 =0.343 mm, D1 =1.03 mm, D2 =1.716 mm, so that for a good suppression in both media and in the intermediate range, for example, D˜0.3 mm or D˜0.9 mm should be selected.
Example of measurement: At β=21.4� and r=7 mm, i.e. for transducers with f˜170 kHz, the length of the surface of incidence emerges as 39 mm. With a step height of D=0.6 mm at a length of 15-20 mm, excellent results were achieved. The signal of the V-shaped path may be attenuated by approximately 18 dB by using the 3λ/4 plate (D=0.6 mm).
In addition to the embodiment shown in FIGS. 2a and 2b, further variations of the apportionment of the surface are also feasible. FIG. 2b shows once again the form shown in FIG. 2a, in which the sequence not raised/raised/not raised occurs in the direction of flow. FIG. 3b shows an arrangement complementary thereto, having a sequence raised/not raised/raised. Also feasible would be arrangements having a sequence transversely to the direction of flow. FIG. 4b shows, in this sense, an arrangement raised/not raised. FIG. 5b shows an arrangement raised/not raised/raised. A sequence of the various surfaces transversely to the direction of flow would signify less insertion into the flow.
The invention is not limited to the particular details of the apparatus depicted and other modifications and applications are contemplated. Certain other changes may be made in the above described apparatus without departing from the true spirit and scope of the invention herein involved. It is intended, therefore, that the subject matter in the above depiction shall be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.

Minnesota hits the road for the first time in Big Ten play, traveling to Penn State Wednesday evening.
The Gophers are playing just their second true road game of the season, and the first since Nov. 16's win at Richmond.
Minnesota moved back to the win column at home, closing out the seven-game homestand on Sunday with an 82-79 win over Purdue. It was the Gophers' first victory over the Boilermakers since 2011.
Minnesota leads the league in steals per game (8.5) and free throw percentage (.763), while ranking fourth in assists (14.9) and turnover margin (+2.7).
Last Thursday's loss to the Wolverines dropped the Gophers' record in Big Ten openers to 11-17 since the 1980-81 season (not counting vacated years.)
Minnesota's 3-point shooting effort against the Boilermakers' was its best of the season, as the Gophers connected on 11-of-24 attempts, a season-best 45.8 percent mark and tying a season-high for made treys.
Junior center Elliott Eliason is coming off a strong week, as the Chadron, Neb., native posted his fourth double-double of the season and his career (10 pts., 10 rbs.) while blocking two shots and dishing an assist against Michigan. He added eight points, seven rebounds, and six blocks (one shy of his career high) against Purdue.
On Dec. 10 against the Jackrabbits, Minnesota saw two players post double-doubles for the first time in more than three years. Austin Hollins had 20 points and 14 rebounds, while Elliott Eliason added 10 points and 12 rebounds. The last time two Gophers had double-doubles in the same game was Nov. 12, 2010 against Wofford (Ralph Sampson III - 20 pts., 13 rbs.; Trevor Mbakwe - 14 pts., 10 rbs.).
Before this year, the Golden Gopher program had not seen a pair of players reach the 1,000-point plateau in the same season since the trio of Randy Carter, Voshon Lenard and Arriel McDonald did so during the 1993-94 season.

Greg Biffle comes into Sunday's Quicken Loans 400 from the Michigan International Speedway with a bit more confidence in his step. Biffle and his Roush Fenway Racing team have struggled since finishing fourth at Texas six races ago. His finishes have been 19th, 36th, 13th, 31st, and 15th. Using strategy he was able to finish second last weekend at Pocono. "Coming off our second-place run at Pocono last week, we definitely didn't probably have a second-place car, but I'm gonna say we were close to it. We hopefully feel like we've learned a few things last week that we can apply here today with the amount of practice we have. Hopefully, we can continue to learn and make our cars a little bit better, which we need to continue to do. This is one of my favorite places – a fourth and a win here last year – so we can hopefully do at least the same this year, if not better," Biffle told reporters Friday from the speedway. Not that he needs added pressure, but if (or any other Ford Racing driver) can pull off the victory, it would be Ford Racing's 1,000th career NASCAR victory. "There are a lot of things on the line for us as far as that win. One, it would be our first of the season; two, it would propel us towards the Chase; and three, the 1,000th win for Ford Racing in NASCAR. That's a huge deal, so there's a tremendous amount on the line. The manufacturers really look to be the frontrunner here and we would like to be that car," Biffle explained. Biffle will look to get Ford's 1,000th win and his first of the year starting in the 19th position. The Quicken Loans 400 can be seen at 1 PM EST on TNT.

This photo was taken on highway 79, the road that winds through the Cuyamaca Mountains toward Mt. Laguna and Julian. Most of this highway has no stopping areas in which to pull over and park, so I snapped this photo as we were flying past Stonewall Peak.
