From Kathy DiFiore, Founder: "When I took my first pregnant teen into my own home in 1981, I never thought the day would come when I would be asking you to help support our shelters for mothers and their babies, our efforts to teach chastity and how to make better life choices, our almost 70 special needy families, and our inner city homeless women and their children.
We hope this website will provide you with a sense of who we are, our joyful events, the projects we support, as well as give you a sense of the value of our work.
God has truly blessed our efforts. But each and every month is a struggle. The pregnant, frightened teens keep contacting us by hotline, by email and through word of mouth. They have only us to turn to in their time of turmoil and abandonment. The homeless women appear at our door, pleading for food, clothing and just a clean, dry place to rest and feel safe. Our work can only continue with the support of people like you. Please consider donating to our ongoing work."

Equ. 2011, Paper No. 09, 11 p., electronic only (2011). Summary: We discuss the existence and uniqueness of solutions to fractional order ordinary and delay differential equations. We apply our results to single species model of Lotka Volterra type. Fixed point theorems are the main tool used here to establish the existence and uniqueness results. First, we use Banach contraction principle and then Krasnosel'skii's fixed point theorem to show the existence and uniqueness of the solution under certain conditions. Moreover, we prove that the solution can be extended to the maximal interval of existence.

Big Shoes: Bank president and CEO making strides in first yearPublished 9:28pm Tuesday, January 15, 2013
Bruce Elder knew he had big shoes to fill when he accepted the position of president and chief executive officer of First South Bank last year. The former president and CEO, Thomas Vann, held the position for 36 years.
Elder said he was fortunate to be accepted into the fold.
"It's been great. I think we have all established a rapport and are really ready to move the bank forward," Elder said.
He worked alongside Vann for six months before assuming duties September 1 and said he looked forward to the coming year and said there were a lot of opportunities for a well-positioned community bank like First South.
Elder said the bank has taken steps to make the credit and loan process easier, a challenging task in this economy.
"It has been challenging, but we're now poised to begin growth and are very much open to opportunities," Elder said.
First South Bank will also be revamping some of its products and bundling services.
Elder's rise to CEO wasn't a typical one. Where most bank CEO's come from the loan side of the bank.
Elder's experience was in finance. He was chief financial officer for Crescent State Bank in Cary. As CFO, Elder assisted with liability and expense control.
Elder said his perspective helped him understand both sides of banking. He understands the importance of lending and can see the importance of the funding side of banking.
Elder helped to build the bank, from devising the business plan to selecting and building the data process system.
"Most people don't get a chance to do that," he said. "The experience I came away with that was being able to build a financial institution and working through baby steps – a loan platform, deposit platform and marketing plans – and learning how to become a part of an executive management team."
Elder and his wife, Sherry, have three sons in college, one doing a residency at Georgetown University, one a senior at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and another a junior at North Carolina State University, Elder's alma mater.
With three sons in college, the timing for Elder and his wife to uproot the lives they had built for more than 16 years in Apex, N.C., was perfect. Had the offer come five years ago, with kids in high school, Elder said he might not have considered it.
"But, this was a fantastic opportunity for us," he said. "I've enjoyed every minute that we've been here and hope that we are here for a very long time."

Audit of county schools called useful by officialsPublished 10:31pm Monday, August 25, 2014
Tallapoosa County Board of Education officials say that an audit released Friday by the Alabama Department of Examiners of Public Accounts was a tool that will be beneficial to them as they move forward.
The report on the board finances from Oct. 1, 2012 through Sept. 30, 2013, found the system to be handling funds well overall. The major findings included the fact that the county had not received its share of tax revenues, that in some cases a school was holding onto cash too long and that benefits were being paid from an improper account.
District Chief Financial Officer Phil Blasingame called the audit helpful and said officials addressed the concerns immediately.
"It was really a good audit from our standpoint," Blasingame said. "Two of the things were things where we just hadn't communicated effectively with all the people involved and certainly, the findings in the tax distribution was a benefit in that we were underpaid by about $120,000."
Blasingame said that Tallapoosa County contracts with a company called RDS to collect and disburse taxes to local school boards. The auditor discovered that RDS was using an outdated disbursement form that had improper formulas to calculate how the money was to be distributed.
The audit found that the issue resulted in the city boards of education located within Tallapoosa County, Alexander City and Tallassee, owing the Tallapoosa County Board of Education a total of $122,134.68.
"They just had some been using an old formula," Blaingame said. "RDS has now been notified and have now made corrections in its calculation formulas to reflect the correct formulas. So that is good from our standpoint."
Another finding was that at Reeltown, cash taken in for school lunches had been kept on campus for extended periods of time before being deposited into the school's account.
Blasingame said that many times the schools that are picked to be audited often have been following outdated procedures for convenience.
"In that case, we immediately met with them and the manager has been made aware of the state guidelines which are required to be followed when depositing money," Blasingame said. "We will monitor this to make sure deposits are deposited into the bank within the time frame allowed by the state and so far that has been the case."
Blasingame said in the other finding on payment of benefits, a new procedure for accounting has been established to avoid a recurrence of the same issue in the future.

Though I have to admit that I am fond of the Tyrannomon family. They're one of my absolute favorite Digimon families, so to see DarkTyrannomon and MetalTyrannomon in this fic made me happy.
I still like how Jacob and Ross are written. They're not the obvious "leader" and "lone wolf", but they do have those qualities. Jacob wants to do the right thing, and Ross wants to do the safe thing. And they're old enough to keep their feelings in check to be helpful during the war.
Since you ended this chapter on a cliffhanger, you know I'm looking forward to more. Especially to find out more about the Commander, who seems like a much more badass version of the Kaiser from 02.

Version 6 helps prevent internal data theft or accidental malicious downloads
Desktop PCs are like sieves when it comes to potential data leaks. Each port and drive is like a hole through which data can escape or be stolen.
Firewalls and encryption can protect a network from external threats, but locally unsecured devices and ports are vulnerable to internal attacks or simple carelessness.
Endpoint security products aim to prevent those types of data loss. One such product is DeviceLock from SmartLine, which we reviewed a couple of years ago. We found the product an easy-to-use, highly customizable and effective way to prevent internal data theft or accidental malicious downloads.
The company recently released Version 6.0 of the product, which contains several significant new features and improvements.
The core functionality of the product remains the same. It prevents leaks by controlling user access to devices and ports on a PC. It does this by intercepting every request from a user to the device and then checking to see whether the user has permission to use the device. If not, the user receives an "access denied" message.
DeviceLock can protect a surprisingly long list of ports and devices. They include USB ports, FireWire ports, serial ports, parallel ports, Bluetooth adapters, Wi-Fi adapters, CD and DVD drives (including writable drives), floppy drives, tape devices and removable storage devices such as memory sticks, flash drives, external hard drives and Iomega Zip drives.
We like the one-stop shopping interface that lets you view computers that are running DeviceLock, remotely deploy the software and set permissions for each device type. Setting time and day access for users or groups is a simple matter of selecting squares on a grid.
One important new feature in DeviceLock 6.0 is an optional data-shadowing capability. Data shadowing captures all data that users copy to removable devices, burn to CDs and DVDs, or print. The shadow copies can reveal whether the duplication breaches the agency's data integrity policy.
Another new feature is the Media White List, which allows administrators to authorize access to specific DVD/CD-ROM disks even when DeviceLock has otherwise blocked access to the DVD/CD-ROM drive. DeviceLock identifies the allowable disks by a special data signature.
If anyone changes the content of the disk, the data signature will change and DeviceLock will then block that disk. This safeguard prevents people from using a white-listed disk to introduce unwanted data to the network.
The Media White List is useful to agencies that routinely use CDs and DVDs to distribute software or instruction manuals over the network. This feature can also let administrators specify allowed users and groups so that only authorized users can access the contents of the disk.
DeviceLock 6.0 also offers an improved and integrated Active Directory Group Policy Manager console. The console allows DeviceLock to be as scalable as any Active Directory environment, allowing administrators to manage hundreds of thousands of Microsoft Windows desktop PCs.
DeviceLock can also manage any Lightweight Directory Access Protocol network of Windows PCs, including mixed network operating system environments.
Pricing starts at $35 per license with volume discounts beginning at 25 licenses.

Smoke and Mirrors: Photographs by Vance Gellert
Are those llama fetuses hanging in that market? Why is that frog being stretched out into a tortuous position? Why is that child lying nearly naked and covered in flower petals? What the hell is that guy smoking? These are questions you're likely to ask yourself when looking at local photographer Vance Gellert's latest exhibit of healing practices in South America. And they are, in fact, llama fetuses. Gellert, a trained pharmacologist, spent time photographing the frequently a-scientific rituals and supplements used and practiced in countries including Peru and Bolivia. The large-format photographs show the rich and vivid colors of the places Gellert visited and the scenes he witnessed. When viewed in a country with the latest medical technology and treatments (even if millions of people lack access to them), these photos look like they're straight out of a 1940s anthropology textbook. But, of course, that time-warp feeling is exactly why these images are so commanding. Gellert's work thrusts you into culture shock and forces you to grapple with the world's healthcare disparity. Oh, and it does not end well for the frog.

This invention relates to an improved "O.B." light. An O.B. light is a source of diffuse light mounted on or extending from a motion picture camera, and in such close proximity to the camera lens that the shadows it projects are substantially hidden from the lens. It is used largely for close-up photography say, for photographing a person's face. The distance from camera lens (and O.B. light) to the face being photographed is usually in the range of about 1 to 6 feet (e.g. 30 to 180 cm) and the O.B. light serves to fill in or wash out undesirable shadows of facial features. In motion picture photography there are often occasions when the camera (with the O.B. light) is moved toward and away from the scene being photographed. To maintain the light level as constant as possible on the scene during such movement (in which the distance between the scene and the O.B. light is changed), while maintaining a substantially constant color temperature of the illumination (which is particularly important when using color film), it is necessary to provide means for controllably varying the intensity of the illumination coming from the O.B. light without changing its color temperature. Various arrangements of louvres and reflectors have been proposed for this purpose; see West German published application No. 1,597,930 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,015,113.
The device described in this application provides a light and highly efficient and economical diffused light source whose output can be readily and easily controlled over a wide range while maintaining its color temperature at, say, 3200� K., which can be constructed of simple parts without the need for close tolerances and which will operate reliably for long periods of time without the need to shut off the high intensity light to permit the device to cool off.
Certain aspects of the invention are illustrated in the accompanying drawings (which are drawn approximately to scale unless otherwise indicated).
FIG. 1 is a schematic side view of the novel O.B. light mounted on a camera.
FIG. 2 is a front view of the device without the rearward facing reflector and without the front wall of a reflector-holding housing.

FIGS. 18, 19 and 20 show a modification of the light-control mechanism. FIG. 18 is a view in elevation, with the walls of the box in cross-section; FIGS. 19 and 20 are plan views showing the light controlling slats in positions giving minimum and maximum light output, respectively.
FIGS. 21 and 22 are schematic plan views showing another arrangement of light controlling elements.
The device shown in FIGS. 1-22 comprises a box or housing 11 open at the front and having top, bottom and side walls 12, 13, and 14, 16 respectively, (whose inner faces are painted non-reflective dull black), and having a rear wall arrangement 21 of controlled variable reflectivity. The light source 22 is situated at the front of the box and there is a reflector 23 to direct a substantial portion of its light toward the rear wall.
Preferably the light source is a standard high temperature lamp (having a color temperature of at least about 3200� Kelvin) such as a quartz halogen lamp of the type designated as "DYS" in the trade (color temperature about 3200� K.). A Sylvania DYS 600 W 120 V 6003 lamp has been found to be very suitable. That particular lamp has a tungsten filament 24 formed of thin wire tightly coiled into helical form so as to form a thicker structure, which thicker structure is in turn formed into a much looser helix (6 turns) having a diameter of about 5 mm and an axial length of about 10 mm. The filament is within the somewhat spheroidal portion 26 (which portion has a diameter of about 20 mm) of a quartz bulb 27 mounted in a ceramic base 28 having two lower projecting prongs (not shown) for fitting into a conventional ceramic electric receptacle 29 mounted at the front of the bottom wall 13 of the box 11. The receptacle 29 has standard resilient clips 32, 33 for firmly engaging, and frictionally retaining the ceramic base of the lamp.
The reflector 23 is conveniently made of a single piece of flat reflector metal sheet cut and bent into the illustrated shape. A very suitable material is high purity aluminum reflective sheeting having a specular face (directed towards the lamp) and a relatively dull opposite face, e.g. an Alzak aluminum sheet such as an Alzak sheet about 0.8 mm thick, Specular finish #1 consisting of #3003 alloy clad with alloy #1175 and chemically and electropolished and then clear anodized for protection of the reflective surface. The reflector has a center portion 36 and two reflective wings 37, 38. The center portion 36, which is conveniently rectangular, is dished centrally (into roughly the form of a surface of a segment of a sphere) at the area 39 which (when the reflector is mounted) comes closest to the bulb; this dished zone provides a reflective area less than 5 mm and preferably less than 3 mm from the outer surface of the quartz bulb. The two reflective wings are each disposed at an angle such that a major portion of the light from the lamp is directed at the rear of the box 11: In one preferred form, the center portion 36 and the reflective wings 37, 38 each measure about 2.5 cm�5.5 cm and each wing is in a plane at an angle of about 67� to the plane of the center portion, the radius of the spherically dished portion 39 is about 11/2 cm and the thickness of the airspace between the bulb 26 of the lamp and the dished reflective portion is in the range of about 1 to 2 mm. Thus the light travels through a path of minimum length before reaching the reflector which acts to magnify the filament image. The rear surface of the box thus receives light directly from the bare bulb, and additionally from the reflector, all combining to maximize the even distribution of light. This reflector, in addition to being efficient in its light gathering and distribution properties, also tends to increase the incoherence, or controlled scattering of the light rays, thus contributing to the diffused, or soft quality of the light. The illustrated reflector (whose wings 37, 38 are of such size and shape that the light passing directly from the filament is essentially limited to the area of rear wall arrangement 21, and to the top and bottom walls 12, 13) has been found to be very suitable.
For mounting the reflector 23, it has an offset extension 41 which is resiliently clamped in place in a housing 42 fixed to the bottom wall 13 of the box 11. This extension 41 fits through a slot 43 at the front of the top 42A of the housing 42 and is bifurcated to be supported on a pin 44 mounted in the front wall 46 of that housing, being held firmly in place by a spring-loaded clamping element 47 fixed to the end of that pin. The dimensions and structural relationships are such that the action of the clamping element 47 urges the lower part of extension 41 against the wall 46 and urges the reflecting portion (such as center portion 36) toward the bulb 27, so that the reflector is resiliently pressed against a portion (e.g. projection 49) of the lamp-holding resilient clip 32 which acts as a stop to prevent the reflector from touching the bulb and insures proper spacing of reflector and bulb. The spring-loaded clamping action insures that this proper spacing is maintained even when the reflector becomes very hot, and expands, owing to the heat of the lamp in use.
In the illustrated embodiment, the pin 44 is mounted for axial movement in a suitable bearing (such as grommet 51) in the front wall 46 of the lower housing 42 and the clamping force is provided by a helical spring 52 disposed around the pin and pressing against a knob 53 at the outer end of the pin. Removal and installation of the reflector (as when a lamp is being replaced) are simple. To install the reflector the knob 53 is pushed inward, against the force of the spring, to provide space for the extension 41 to fit over the pin without interference from the clamping element 47; then the knob is released to permit the spring to urge the clamping element against the two legs of the extension. To remove the reflector the knob is pushed inward to release the clamping action and the reflector is pulled out of the slot 43.
In the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 1-18 there is a flat rectangular rear panel 56 having a rim 57 around it for fitting over the top, bottom and side walls of the box, and being secured thereto in any suitable manner, as by screws 58 (FIG. 16). This rear panel carries two sets of strips of different light reflectivity. One set has reflective flat (i.e. dull) white exposed outer surfaces and one set has non-reflective dull black exposed outer surfaces. The strips of one set are positioned between, and alternating with, the strips of the other set and the two sets are mounted for relative sliding movement so that the strips of one set progressively cover and obscure those of the other set and progressively vary the amount of light reflected forward by the device. Conveniently the strips are of thin sheet metal (e.g. of 0.4 mm thick hard aluminum alloy such as 2024 T6). The inside face 59 of the rear panel is preferably painted non-reflective dull black. The strips are preferably leaves supported at one end and free at the other.
In the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 8-17 one set of leaves W (in this case the white leaves) is more or less fixed and the other set B is movable. The stationary leaves are mounted (as by screws or rivets 61 FIG. 3) at one end of each leaf, to a rigid mounting strip 62 (an angle bar) attached to the upper part of the rear panel 56 of the box 11. The other, black faced set of leaves B is similarly mounted on a similar rigid angle strip 63 whose rearwardly projecting portion 64 (FIGS. 12 and 13) fits, for sliding movement, in the space S (FIGS. 14 and 15) between the rear part of the bottom wall 13 and tracks 66, 67 fixed to the lower part of the rear panel 56. For controlled movement of this mounting strip 63 (and its attached leaves B) there is a rack-and-pinion arrangement, with the rack 68 being fixed to the central portion of the strip 63 and the pinion 69 being mounted in the rear panel 56 at about the level of the tracks. The shaft 71, on which the pinion is fixed, carries (fixed thereto) an operating knob 72 (FIG. 16) which is situated on the outside of the box for manual operation of the leaves.
The leaves of both sets are, in the preferred form, of substantially identical dimensions. Each leaf has, as shown in FIG. 8, a substantially flat light-receiving portion W1 or B1 most of which is disposed at a small angle (e.g. about 5�) to the vertical plane of the mounting strips. All the leaves (excepting, where desired, the end leaf, at the left in FIG. 2, of each set) are preferably bent longitudinally, at about the line along which a leaf is overlapped by its neighbor of the same set, to form a guideway 73 for the movement of the cooperating leaf of the other set, and also to provide increased rigidity. Preferably this bend is at an angle of about 75�.
In the illustrated embodiment the movable mounting strip 63 with the set of leaves B carried thereby is easily removable from the back panel, as by simply sliding it until its leaves completely cover the fixed leaves and then moving it forward to take it away from the guides or tracks 66, 67 and to separate its rack from the pinion. It is also very simple to put it back in place by simply positioning its leaves over the other set, sliding the movable strip and leaves in a direction to interfit the leaves, and adjusting the position of the strip so that its rearward edge fits into, and is slidably positioned in, the appropriate space defined by guides 66, this causes the rack 68 to operatively engage the pinion 69.
The relative movements of the two sets of leaves when the operating knob is turned are illustrated in FIGS. 8-10.
When only the leaves of the stationary set are exposed, as in FIG. 8, each movable leaf B is situated directly behind a neighboring (upstream) stationary leaf W. The stationary leaves thus constitute the effective stationary light-receiving rear surface of the device. At one end of that rear surface (to the left hand side of FIG. 2) a black movable leaf is exposed to the light, but it is in a position in which it does not receive the strong illumination directed by the reflector against the white leaves).
When (as in FIG. 9) the movable leaf has been moved so that half the exposed width of its other (downstream) neighboring stationary leaf W is obscured by half the width of the movable leaf, the other half of the movable leaf is still situated behind (and obscured by) its upstream neighboring stationary leaf.
When (as in FIG. 10) the movable leaf M has been moved so as to completely obscure its downstream stationary neighbor S, the resulting engagement of the bent guideway-forming portions W2, B2 of these two leaves may cause the movable leaves and their mounting strip to move slightly forward, in a direction towards the open front of the box; the dimensions of mounting strip, guides 66, 67, and rack and pinion are such as to permit this forward movement while maintaining the parts in operative engagement. (It will be understood of course that the long leaves W and B are flexible and that one may provide means for preventing or limiting this forward movement, in which case the free ends of the stationary leaves will become slightly bent backward resiliently owing to the engagement of the two sets of guideway forming portions, with the free ends of the movable leaves being correspondingly becoming slightly bent foward.)
In the illustrated embodiment there is a slight warp in the flexible leaves (of both sets) at a corner of each leaf at the end thereof which is fixed to its mounting strip, owing to the particular illustrated mode of attaching the leaves to the strips, as seen in FIG. 11.
To provide for easy access to the light control knob an arrangement as shown in FIG. 17 may be used, in which the single operating knob 72 on the rear of the device is replaced by a worm gear arrangement (indicated schematically as 76) on a long shaft 77 extending across the rear portion of the box 11. At each end of the shaft there is a knob 78 for manual rotation of the shaft to turn the pinion and thus vary the amount of reflected light. It will be also understood that the knob 72 may be of such type that a flexible operating cable (not shown) can be fitted thereto, to be operated by an assistant who may walk alongside (or behind) the camera without interfering with the camera operator.
When desired, the rear panel 56 may be removed and replaced with a similarly shaped rimmed rectangular panel having a highly reflective diffuse surface, so that the entire unit may be used away from the camera as a conventional, and frequently required, source of soft diffuse, localized light on the subject matter to be photographed.
The entire box or housing 11 may be mounted in a balanced manner in a yoke or bail 81 having a receptacle 82 to fit a conventional stud 83 (e.g. a 5/8" stud) of a standard light supporting device. This stud may, for instance, be part of a conventional arm 84 (FIG. 1) with articulated elbow joints secured to and projecting from the camera itself or the stud may be part of a conventional extendable type of tripod stand (not shown) regularly available in the field. The yoke or bail 81 acts as a gimbal apparatus for positioning the lamp, and has a tie-off thumb screw 86 on one side to frictionally maintain the device at the desired angle on the yoke.
Another aspect of the invention (illustrated in FIGS. 18-20) relates to the use of a rear panel 56' (having a rim 57') which supports pivoted overlapping leaves or slats 91, each having a non-reflective dull black face 91B and an opposite reflective dull white face 91W, with means for pivoting the slats to control the amount of light reflected out of the device. When the slats are in the position shown in FIGS. 18 and 20, with their white faces exposed, the amount of such reflected light is at a maximum. As the slats are rotated toward the position shown in FIG. 19 their black faces and part of the black face 56' B of the rear panel 56' will become exposed to the light from the lamp and the amount of light reflected out of the device will decrease progressively until it reaches a minimum when the slats are in the position shown in FIG. 19.
In the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 18-20 the slats 91 are bent at 93 along one edge to provide an offset portion 94 to stiffen the slats and for attachment to lower and upper rotatable pivots 96, 97; and the faces 94B of those offset portions which become exposed to the light of the lamp are similarly painted black. One of the pivots 96 (designated 96') is fixed preferably co-axially as shown to an operating knob 99 situated outside the box and the slats are operatively joined together for simultaneous movement, e.g. by means of a connecting rod 101 carrying rotatable pivots 102 fixed to the slats adjacent these slat edges which are remote from the supporting pivots 96, 97. The two pivots 96, 97 for each slat are in axial alignment and all the pivots 96, 97 are journaled, respectively, in lower and upper pivot-supporting rods 103, 104 which are supported in fixed position (by brackets not shown) on the rear wall 56'B.
In the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 21 and 22 there are two sets of slats 106 and 107, each having a diffusely reflective white face 106W or 107W. The opposite face of each slat may be white or black or gray (or otherwise colored). Each slat is attached to an upper central pivot 109 and a lower central pivot (not shown) aligned with the upper pivot. The pivots are supported on suitable mounting strips (not shown) attached to the rear panel.
In FIG. 21 the slats are shown in a highly reflecting position in which the edges of the slats abut, so that the white faces 106W, 107W of the slats substantially completely obscure the black inside face of the rear panel. The assembly of slats in this position thus forms a serrate diffuse reflector.
In FIG. 22 the slats are shown rotated to a position in which the light from the lamp is absorbed by the black inner face of the rear panel, and the slats are in planes perpendicular to that rear panel. It will be seen that set 106 of slats rotates 45� in one direction and set 107 rotates 45� in the opposite direction. This rotation is effected by the turning of a knob (not shown) operatively connected, in conventional manner, to two reciprocable bars 112 and 113. Bar 112 is operatively connected, as by means of lost-motion connection (not shown) to the slats 106 of one set, while bar 113 is similarly connected, at 114. to the slats 107 of the other set.
It will be understood, of course, that the amount of light reflected progressively decreases as the slats are rotated from the position shown in FIG. 21 to that shown in FIG. 22.
The devices described above have been found to produce a desirable relatively confined beam of diffuse light of quite uniform intensity across the width of the beam. This has been shown, for instance, in tests in which the device shown in FIGS. 1-16 was set up facing the center of a white sheet, tautly stretched over an area of 5 feet by 9 feet, located 4 feet from the front of the device. Visual examination showed that there was an evenly lit roughly rectangular area measuring about 4 feet wide by 3 feet high, centered on a line projected from the center of the front opening of the device. Around that rectangular area the light intensity was much lower. Instrumental measurements (in foot-candles, using a standard light meter, Spectra Professional) gave the readings shown in the tabulation, below, at the indicated positions in that rectangular strongly lit area at the settings of the movable leaves indicated in the tabulation. These indicate small differences in light intensity from the center to the edges of the rectangular area, but those differences are well within the tolerance of all commercially available motion picture film, whether color or black and white, so that for all practical purposes there were no differences at all from center to edges. In these tests, the device had slots whose black and white coatings has been applied by hand with paints readily avilable in retail outlets. Coatings which are much more efficient (from the point of view of diffuse light reflectance, for white, and light absorption, for black) are well known in the art; with such coatings it is to be expected that the light output at the high setting will be some 15 to 20 percent greater or more, and the light output at the lowest setting will be corresponding lower. It should be noted that owing to the linear non-rotary movement of the movable light-controlling elements, the device shown in FIGS. 2-17 maintains a linear relationship between the total white area and the degree of rotation of the knob 72 and that the data in the tabulation indicate that this linear relationship also applies substantially to the actual light output; this makes for better and easier manual control by the operator.
It will be understood, of course, that the coatings of the light receiving faces in the illustrated embodiments may be reversed. For instance, the stationary leaves W may have black light-receiving faces, and the movable leaves B may have white light receiving faces.
In the devices described above the dimensions are as follows: the front opening of the box measures about 15�23 cm. the slats are situated about 14 cm from the front of the box and are about 131/2 cm in height, with the width of the main portion of each slat being about 21/2 cm. Preferably the device is rectangular (e.g. such as square or having a ratio of long side length to short side length of about 11/2 to 1 shown, 2:1 maximum preferable).
In use, relatively high temperatures well over 600� F. may be encountered in the device. For instance a temperature of almost 750� F. has been measured at a point just forward of the rear panel. To help remove the heat there are preferably ventilating louvres such as baffled horizontal slits formed (not shown) in the rear panel. The walls of the box, panel, and slats or leaves are preferably made of aluminum and the black and white diffusive coatings are of course of heat resistant material.
For certain effects it is, at times, desirable to increase the diffuse nature of the light; to this end the device may have clips 111 (FIG. 2) to hold diffusing filters (e.g. fiberglass sheets, wire mesh, sil, scrim, etc.) across the front opening of the device. Also, it may at times be desirable to restrict the extent of the area illuminated by the device; for that purpose forward extensions of the sides or of the top or bottom walls (or extensions) of all such walls, e.g. a "snoot" or "barn doors") may be added.
In FIG. 1 the device is shown mounted on a professional motion picture camera (such as a Mitchell BNCR) having a zoom lens ZL, or an eyepiece E, a film magazine M having a conventional sound-deadening cover (or "blimp") C from which there projects an articulated arm 84 having a stud 83. While FIG. 1 shows the device secured to the camera with the lower switch housing 42 situated between the box 11 and the camera, one may use an arrangement in which that switch housing is in another position so that the front opening of box 11 can be even closer to the camera lens. For instance, the illustrated device may be used, without change, in upside-down position (with the switch housing at the top and the lamp 22 depending downward therefrom). Preferably (for longer lamp life) the device is used in a position in which the axis of the large helix of the lamp filament is horizontal. Of course, other arrangements for securing the device to a camera (or other supporting structure) may be employed; for instance the yoke or bail can be replaced by a clamp or knuckle arrangement of known construction.
The stainless steel clips 32 and 33 (FIG. 6) are parts of a standard ceramic lampholder 29 manufactured by the General Electric Co. for use with DYS-DYV bulbs. The molded ceramic base 28 has projections designed to the edges of openings in the stainless steel spring clips. These clips firmly grip the bulb when it is placed in the socket, and prevent it from falling out when the lamp is operated in other than the upright position (as may be required in many situations). As mentioned above, the clip 32 also acts as a stop (whose position is fixed by to engagement with base 28) to insure proper spacing of reflector and bulb; the construction is such that in the absence of a stop the reflector would, when clamped, be closer to (or touching) the bulb. That is, the reflector is pressed resiliently against the clip 32. It will be understood, of course, that other stop arrangements may be used; for instance the reflector may be shaped so that the ceramic base 28 (or receptacle 29) may serve as the stop.
The lamp 22 (FIGS. 2,3,4,6), DYS-DYV is manufactured in substantially identical configurations to fit the above described lampholder, by Sylvania, General Electric, and Phillips (in Europe). It is a high intensity lamp standardly availabe in voltages of 30 (for battery operation), 120, and 240, and in many wattages ranging from 250 to 900.
In FIG. 23 there is illustrated a knuckle arrangement to be used instead of (or in addition to) the previously illustrated yoke or bail 81. The knuckle comprises two clam shell-like halves; one half 121 extends to and terminates in a flange to be fastened to the bottom of the box 11 while the other half 122 extends to a receptacle adapted to receive a stud (such as stud 83). The two halves may have mating serrated surfaces adapted to be pressed together by a suitable arrangement such as thumb screw arrangement 123, to maintain frictionally any desired tip or tilt attitude of the device.
It is understood that the foregoing detailed description is given merely by way of illustration and that variations may be made therein without departing from the spirit of the invention.

I've been trying to google if both sides with king and queen vs king and queen play correct is it always a draw? Is there any forced checkmate possible other than the other player makes a bad move with the queen? I cannt find anything on it and i see this situation a lot.
Pawnless it's a draw. With one pawn it depends (sometimes a win, sometimes a draw) and in some cases best play is very difficult.
In some very rare cases it's a win. They usually happen after a K+Q vs K+pawn on the 7th endgame. For instance :

Outlast Stay Fabulous 3 in 1 Foundation claims to offer the "lasting power of a primer, coverage of a concealer, and blendability of a foundation." That sounds great, but this product won't replace your primer or concealer, and it isn't a foundation worth recommending either.
It loses major points for not containing sufficient ingredients for broad-spectrum sun protection, which is critical for anti-aging benefit (see More Info), so that automatically means you'll need to pair this with a more reliable form of sun protection.
As for this functioning as a primer, it contains the same types of ingredients CoverGirl includes in most of their other foundations, so there's really nothing special about it. Furthermore, despite what you may have heard, primers aren't necessary for successful makeup application. You can get the same results, and treat your skin to anti-aging ingredients, by applying a well-formulated serum.
Otherwise, this basic liquid formula is easy to blend and offers sheer to medium coverage (not what we would equate to concealer-like coverage as they promise).
The shades will cover a wide range of light to deep skin tones, but most of the light to medium colors suffer from pinkish undertones. The matte-finish formula is great for normal to oily skin types and does hold up throughout the day, but this is not a foundation we can recommend either for sun protection or for a unique way to get the benefits of three products from one.
The formula contains fragrance in the form of ethylene brassylate, but at such a low amount it is not likely to be irritating.
Outlast Stay Fabulous 3 in 1 Foundation SPF 20 does not include the ingredients needed to shield your skin from the sun's entire range of damaging UVA rays, which is essential for anti-aging benefits. Any SPF-rated product should contain one or more of the following UVA-protecting ingredients listed as "active": avobenzone, titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, Mexoryl SX (ecamsule), or Tinosorb (Sources: Photochemical and Photobiological Sciences, December 2011, pages 81–90; Cosmetic Dermatology, Second Edition, Baumann, Leslie MD, McGraw Hill, 2009, pages 246–252; American Journal of Clinical Dermatology, Supplement, 2009, pages 19–24; The Encyclopedia of Ultraviolet Filters, Shaath, Nadim A., Allured Publishing, 2007; and Photodermatology, Photoimmunology, and Photomedicine, October 2003, pages 242–253).

I purchased this product before the review was out, based on good experiences with other Cover Girl foundations.I find this foundation far too matte looking for my normal-to-dry skin. It would probably be best for someone with oily skin, although I can't say that I know for sure as I've never had oily skin in my life, not even as a teenager.If you are switching to this foundation from another Cover Girl product, be aware that the shades are slightly different even when the name is the same. I found this one to be slightly darker than Advanced Radiance, and quite a bit darker than Clean Makeup Sensitive (having picked the same shade for all three). The texture of this foundation is quite liquidy, which I don't like as much as a creamy texture, but the coverage was still good. I would say the coverage is medium to full, and that it has more coverage than both Advanced Radiance and Clean Makeup Sensitive.I would have liked this product better if it had a creamier texture going on and if it had less of a matte finish.

This foundation is just ok. I don't like it but I don't hate it. I've always had massive trouble trying to find the right color of foundation but this comes out orange-y after you apply it. I mix it with moisturizer (a lot of moisturizer) to try to get the color to lighten up a bit, but it doesn't seem to work too well. It does go on a bit cakey too. I have oily skin, THIS IS NOT FOR OILY SKIN! If you don't use a powder this will make you oily. Make sure you research this before buying it.

Comments about CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3 in 1 Foundation SPF 20:
I love this foundation! It is as close to perfect as I've ever found. I don't depend on it for my sunscreen needs so I can ignore the negative "expert" review. Most everything I love has a negative review on here so what's new.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Fantastic with the right serum
By Sandra Mc
from undisclosed
It seems women either love or hate this foundation. I've worn this for nearly two years, the only foundation I use. Two things: my skin must be well exfoliated, and it may change color unless I apply a drop of CG's Simply Ageless Serum Primer after moisturizing. No need for powder, and at age 65, I am frequently complimented on my complexion. I seldom need concealer, unless I have dark circles from lack of sleep.
Shows up quite grey
By Allison H.
This foundation show up quite grey when I first apply it and oxidizes to some odd shade of pink. It blends decently and it stays put but I hate this. I can feel it. If you apply to much it feels very mask like and almost like it doesn't quite set. I am pretty fair skinned but this just pulls so pink and grey. I wanted to like it cause of the pump and staying power
By Anonymous
This foundation is, imo, a better product than the Revlon Colorstay for me. I apply it with fingers and blend with a damp, flat topped brush for an airbrushed finish. I agree, it may not live up to the 3 in 1 claim, but it's the best drug store foundation I've found and I highly recommend it! It can be sheered down beautifully too! Rivals dept. store foundations!!
Looks very cakey
By Morgan S.
I really wanted to like this foundation. I always apply an SPF of 50 underneath my foundation anyways (SPF 20 isn't going to help my pale skin much), so I don't mind much about the sunscreen claims, however I was expecting this foundation to blend smoothly and have a thinner consistency based on reviews I had read on the product. This is very thick and difficult to blend and once it is blended out it looks very cakey and accentuates every fine line and wrinkle. Fail foundation in my book.
By Giselle H.
Classic Ivory was a perfect match but caused me to breakout. Not good for dry or flaky skin. .

Biased Review by PC
By Deb F
I don't know why PChoice would slam this product. ( I never leave reviews, but am irratated that she would slam a great foundation) It's getting rave review from all other sites and magazines/blogs. I found out about it on the Gala Darling Blog.. If I wouldn't have read Gala's review I wouldn't have tried a drugstore brand. It's outstanding. Amazing coverage.
Beautypedia Team Response:Hi, and thanks for your comments. The reason we rated this so low is because it advertises that it provides broad spectrum sunscreen protection, which it cannot do because it does not contain the ingredients to do so.
i AM GOING TO BE 80 YRS OLD IN APRIL 2014. HAD HAD EXPERIENCE WITH HUNDREDS OF FOUNDATIONS, INEXPENSIVE AND VERY PRICEY. RECENTLY WAS COMPLEMENTED ON HOW GREAT AND PORELESS MY COMPLEXION LOOKS. I WEAR OUTLAST FABULOUS BY COVER GIRL. POWDER TO SET SUNSCREEN UNDER AND GOOD TO GO. HIGHLY DISAGREE WITH YOUR POOR RATING
Disagree with Poor Rating
By ChristineL
This is the first liquid foundation that I have ever really liked. I have old acne scars and uneven texture to contend with and all previous liquid foundations that I have tried (including and most especially Revlon Colorstay) made my skin look mask-like and one dimensional and really made me conscious that I was wearing foundation because of it's heaviness on my skin. Covergirl Outlast imparts the most beautiful diffused finish on my oily, large pored skin, that last all day. My new fave!
All-in-one foundation with a long-lasting formula that fuses primer, concealer, and foundation in one easy step! The 3-in-1 formula provides a flawless look that lasts all day long.
Active: Ensulizole (3%). Other: Water, Cyclopentasiloxane, Propylene Glycol, Talc, Dimethicone, Aluminum Starch, Octenylsuccinate, Sodium Chloride, PEG/PPG-18, PVP, Benzyl Alcohol, Phenoxyethanol, Sodium Hydroxide, Ethylene Brassylate, Copolymer, Trihydroxystearin, Arachidyl Behenate, Methicone, Silica, Synthetic Wax, Sodium Benzoate, Hexyl Laurate, Polyglyceryl-4 Isostearate, Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 Dimethicone, Isopropyl Titanium Triisostearate, Ethylene Brassylate, Behenic Acid, Polyethylene, Iron Oxides, Titanium Dioxide
CoverGirl At-A-Glance
Strengths: Inexpensive and widely available; a hugely improved selection of foundations, several with reliable sunscreen; good concealers; enviable pressed powders; some fantastic Lash Blast mascaras; mostly great eyelining options; a vast selection of lip color options, from the long-wearing Outlast to sheer lip glosses to the wholly impressive Lip Perfection lipstick; several great options in the Queen Collection.
Weaknesses: The older foundations are seriously lacking; the newer Advanced Radiance foundation has great texture but disappointing SPF rating; powder blush and eyeshadows; terrible makeup brushes; all of the "Clean" products contain irritating ingredients.
Since 1961, CoverGirl has been slowly building a portfolio of cosmetics that today is about as all-encompassing as a makeup line can be. Originating from the same "medicated" ingredients found in Noxzema Skin Cream (which was never medicated in the least, but seriously irritating for skin), the debut products are still available, albeit with slight modifications. The good news is that for the past several years CoverGirl has consistently updated their line with some very impressive products, especially their foundations, concealers, and vastly improved pressed powders. They also offer some excellent eye and lip pencils, lipsticks and lip gloss, and one of the all-time best long-wearing lip paints, Outlast.
What's puzzling is that although many of CoverGirl's latest products are progressive, they tend to hang on to the lackluster-to-poor options, including abysmal powder blush and eyeshadows and their long-standing, very irritating Clean Makeup. These items may be part of CoverGirl's humble beginnings, but you certainly don't see parent company Proctor & Gamble adding eucalyptus oil and menthol to their Olay products or to products of any of the other cosmetics companies they own. If those ingredients were so important, why not use them everywhere? Needless to say, the great products outnumber the disappointments, and the prices make it easy for those on a budget to be beautiful and enjoy some state-of-the-art products, provided they shop wisely.
CoverGirl's Web site is extremely easy to navigate, and presents a wealth of product information, along with practical (if somewhat cutesy) tips and tricks for successful makeup application and for finding the shades that work best for you. CoverGirl's consumer relations department is consistently helpful if you have any questions or concerns. For example, if one of your favorite items was discontinued, you might want to know what replaced it, and they will let you know. Such service and customer concern is yet another powerful reason to believe CoverGirl really has its (class) act together.

Better than Some home carpeting.

The plushness is only rivaled by the excellent fit. Logos were nice and well executed. Barefoot quality and comfort!

I purchased a front and rear set of these attractive mats to replace the cheesy ones that came with my new vehicle. The mats provide more coverage than the originals, fit perfectly, and add a luxurious look to the vehicle's interior. In fact, I was so pleased with the front and rear mats that I immediately bought a mat for the rear cargo area (trunk). Thanks for a great product at a very fair price, plus the prompt fulfillment and shipping of my order!
