Int. 53]. E05f /00; H021: 41/02 US. Cl. 4936 4 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the invention This invention relates to door operating mechanisms for opening and closing doors where motion is required in the plane of the door. It is applicable to sliding doors or to folding doors.
Description of the prior art Pneumatic and hydraulic drives for linearly movable doors are commonly preferred to electro-mechanical systems with rotating drives because of the complexity of the linkages and the severe conditions imposed, e.g. the requirement to be able to reverse the motion at any point in the stroke.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION This invention makes use of a linear electric motort Linear motors operated by alternating current are well known. These are generally induction motors driven [from a polyphase alternating supply and they have force-speed characteristics generally analogous to those of rotary in duction motors. However this type of characteristic is not suitable for door operating mechanisms where it is required to start the door moving from rest and to open it quickly.
We have found however that it is possible to make a door operating mechanism using a form of linear electric motor which is analogous to a direct current operated motor and, according to the present invention, a door perating mechanism for giving linear motion to a door comprises a linear electric motor having a field coil assembly and armature linearly movable relative to one another the armature being an elongated member on which is wound a coil at least one part of which is energised with direct current through brushes on the field coil assembly and means connecting the movable part of the motor to said door. By using a direct current linear motor, a high thrust is obtained at the start to overcome the inertia and static friction. During movement, there is speed balance against rolling friction and it is readily possible to slow the door down at the end of the stroke by changing the field and/ or armature current In a preferred form of construction, the door operating mechanism comprises a linear motor having an armature and field coil assembly, the armature consisting of a bar Patented Oct. 13, 1970 ice of ferro-magnetic material with an electrically conductive coil wound around the bar but insulated therefrom and the field coil assembly being linearly movable relatively to said bar, said field coil assembly including brushes con-= tacting the coil on the bar to feed direct current through a portion of the coil, a ferromagnetic assembly which, with part of the bar, forms a magnetic circuit and at least one field coil fed with direct current for producing a flux in said magnetic circuit, the brushes being arranged to energise at least one part of the coil where the magnetic flux passes across the coil between the bar and the external magnetic circuit and either said field coil assembly or said armature whichever is the movable part, being connected to said door.
The form of direct current linear motor actuating sys= tem described above has particular advantage when used for actuating a door in that the armature conductors are enegrised only over a short part of their length between the bushes; hence any given part of the armature is energised only temporarily as the field coil assembly moves relatively to the armature. It thus becomes possible to use large armature currents with a modest size of armature conductor. Moreove, the ease of speed contol of a direct current motor gives smooth operation of the door, and, particularly, a reduced speed when approaching the limit positions is readily achieved. In addition the power input requirements when providing thrust at low speeds are small.
For some forms of sliding door, for example doors on tube trains, there is room on one side of the door to accommodate a long operating mechanism and conven iently in this case, the armature is preferably made mov able and is coupled to the door, the field coil assembly being fixed. This obviates any need of flexible connec-= tions or sliding contacts for supplying power to the field coils or to the brushes feeding the armature coil. In other cases however, such as for example lift or elevator doors, there may be. insufficient room to make the armature movable and in this case the field coil assembly may be movable. Often in such cases the amount of travel of the door is limited and conveniently power is supplied to the field coil assembly via a pivoted arm which may house a flexible cable.
Preferably two pairs of blushes are provided for ener gising two sections of the armature coil in opposite senses. One brush may'be common to the two pairs. In such a construction, the field coil assembly may have two pole pieces located ,respectively between the brushes of the two pairs and two further pole pieces, one beyond each end brush. The thrust can be increased however by providing more poles. In one convenient form of construc tion employing four poles, there is one magnetic circuit between the first inner pole and a second inner pole, the circuit being completed through the armature in one direction and back through the external ferro-magnetic part of the field coil system and there are second and third magnetic circuits through the armature in the opposite diection from each inner pole to an adjacent outer pole and back through the ferro-magnetic part of the field coil system. Three brushes may be provided located between successive adjacent pole pieces. Assuming all the poles are similar and the magnetic circuits have similar windings and all have an armature of constant cross section, the maximum flux at each of the inner poles is now twice the flux through the armature. The thrust, which is the product of current density and flux, is thus doubled for the same armature current compared with a two-pole system.
Most conveniently the magnetic circuit is energised. by a field coil or coils coaxial with the armature,

FIG. 2 is a diagram in plan and partly in section illus-= trating a construction of linear electric motor for use in the mechanism of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a diagram for explaining the operation of the motor of FIG. 2;
FIG. 4 is an end elevation of the fixed part of the motor of FIG. 1;
FIG. 5 is a view similar to FIG. 3 of another construc tion of motor; and
FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating the operating mechanism of a door for an elevator.
Referring to FIG. 1, there is shown diagrammatically a door 8 slidable in guide rails 9 in the directions indicated by the arrows 11. The door is coupled by a. coupling 10 to an armature 12 which. co-operates with a fixed field coil assembly .7.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The armature and field coil assembly are shown in fur ther detail in FIGS. 2 to 4. The movable armature 12 consists of a bar of mild steel around which is uniformly wound an armature coil 13. The coil is formed of insulated copper wire with the insulation removed along a strip on one face to form a commutator surface. This armature coil is energised over two portions of its length by means of two pairs of brushes, one brush 16 being common to the two pairs and located between the other two brushes 15, 17. The current fed through these brushes is such that the fiux produced in the two portions of the armature is in opposite directions. These brushes are carried on a fixed assembly including a field coil and associated magnetic circuit. The magnetic circuit is consti= tuted by ferro-magnetic members 20 having four pole pieces 21, 22, 23 and 24 substantially encircling the armature 12. In the particular arrangement illustrated three field coils 25 are provided which are coaxial with the armature 12 but are mounted in the ferromagnetic member 20 so as to be fixed relative thereto, these coils being located between the pole pieces.
In the construction illustrated in FIGS. 2 to 4, the field coil assembly is enclosed within a housing which has top, bottom and side walls of non-ferrous material. At each end, guide blocks 31 of polytetrafluoroethylene steady the assembly against lateral movement. In the vertical direction, the armature 12 is supported on guide wheels 32 engaging the underside of the armature.
FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating the flux paths. It will be seen that, if the field coils 25 are energised, then a first magnetic flux circuit indicated by the dashed line 26 is produced through the ferromagnetic member 20 between the two inner poles 22, 23, and is completed through the armature 12. Second and third magnetic fiux paths 27, 28 are produced between the inner pole 22 and outer pole 21 and between the inner pole 23 and outer pole 24 respectively. In each magnetic circuit, the flux cuts the armature winding 13 adjacent the pole pieces. These portions of the armature winding are energised and thus a mechanical force is established between the current carrying conductors on the armature and the fixed field coil assembly. This causes the armature to move. As the armature moves, the appropriate section of the armature winding is always energised by the brushes and hence the armature moves continuously. This particularly linear motor system is analogous to a rotating direct current motor and thus it provides substantial thrust at low speeds of operation. Because the armature winding only carries current through a limited portion of its length, this portion changing as the armature moves, it is possible to have a large armature current with a modest size of armature conductor. Reversal of movement is effected by switching either the field current or the armature current. With the four pole system described above, if A is the armature crosssection and B is the saturation flux density of the armature core material, it will be seen that the maximum flux at the inner poles 22, 23 is 2B A which is twice that of a corresponding two pole structure and hence the thrust of the motor is doubled compared with a two pole structure.
The armature may be of round section as shown in FIG. 4 or of other section. If it is round, an indexing de vice, not shown, may be provided for rotating the armature to ensure even brush wear around the periphery of the armature coil.
It is often convenient however to use an armature which is not round. FIG. 5 illustrates an armature of generally rectangular section, the shorter sides being rounded to facilitate keeping the armature winding close to the armature surface all round the periphery. In FIG. 5, the armature is shown at sliding on a polytetrafiuoroethylene block 41 in the field coil assembly. Two pole pieces 42 are shown together with a field winding 43 and a housing 44 of non-ferrous metal. Multiple poles may be provided as described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. It will be seen that the construction of FIG. 5 permits of a particularly compact section for the field coil assembly.
If the motor is to be used for a door where there is not room to move the armature, then the armature 12 may be fixed and the door may be carried with the field coil assembly. Such an arrangement may be used for a lift or elevator door, as is illustrated diagrammatically in FIG. 6. In this figure there there are shown a fixed armature and a field coil assembly 51 slidable along the armature. This field coil assembly is connected to a member 52 forming part of the door by means of a resilient COl1-' pling 53. In this case the field coil assembly may be energised by sliding contacts engaging a pair of conductor rails adjacent the track or by trailing leads supported by a Bowden cable or most conveniently by flexible leads taken through a pivoted arm.
In FIG. 6, the feed is illustrated as a flexible lead 54 between the field coil assembly 51 and a control unit 55 which controls the application of direct current from a supply source 56 to the field coils and armature. This control unit may be operated in the known way by manually operated push button controls together with limit switches. Limit switches at each end of the stroke are provided to interrupt the field current and armature current. For slowing down the door just before each end of the stroke further limit switches are provided which increase the field current and reduce the armature current for the last part of the stroke. Reversal of the motion may be effected by reversing the polarity of the field current or the armature current; preferably the field current is reversed as it is much smaller than the armature current. The control unit would usually be arranged to provid immediate reversal of the motion should the door meet an obstruction, this being detected by a rubber faced strip on the leading edge of the door, which strip operates a switch if it comes into contact with an obstruction. It will be particularly noted that a direct current linear motor can rapidly and easily be reversed to meet this requirement.

Gaga can't take year off like Beyonce
Submitted by Kiran Pahwa on Wed, 08/03/2011 - 02:26
London, Aug 3 - Lady Gaga will never follow the footsteps of her pop pal Beyonce and take a year off to travel the world because she loves the loneliness that comes along with hectic schedules.
Beyonce took time out of her career prior to the release of her new album and spent her days travelling the world. She indulged in her favourite foods and spending quality time with her family and husband Jay-Z, reports dailystar. co. uk.
But Gaga, who has twice collaborated with the R&B superstar, insists this lifestyle is not for her because she likes to be a busy bee.
"I'm actually the complete opposite... I think I want to see less of the world! I kind of just wanna be with my friends. I stay really, really close to the people who have always inspired me. I sort of treasure the loneliness of being a pop star," she said. (IANS)

Mac Mini Mid 2010 Teardown Mac Mini Mid 2010 teardown. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/rp4HXXOF1RfUG6jJ Walter Galan No estimate Moderate Mac Mini Mid 2010
Join us as we take a peek inside at Apple's newest revision of the Mac Mini, now with an HDMI port!

Check out the YouTube video slideshow of the teardown as well!
 2013-08-06T15:34:42-07:00 Well folks, after much clamor, it seems the engineers at Apple have finally included an HDMI port in an actual Apple product. Notable Tech Specs: 2.4 or 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor 2 GB of RAM (expandable up to 8 GB) NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics processor with 256MB of shared DDR3 SDRAM (the same as the most recent MacBook) HDMI port with support for up to 1920-by-1200 resolution AirPort Extreme 802.11n Wi-Fi wireless networking SD card slot https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/mPfd61EPuVSXgm2q Contents of box: Mac Mini HDMI to DVI adapter Power cord https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/YD3sTUSrGgQENOZh Departing from previous generations, the Mini's unibody top enclosure is machined from a single block of aluminum. Measuring 1.4 x 7.7 x 7.7 inches and weighing only 3 lbs, this is truly one for the books. The black logo and other accents match quite nicely with the styling of Apple's iPad and recent iMacs. Congrats, Mini, you're no longer the black sheep of the family! The model number for this new unit is A1347. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/UAAYxfUf2FGUfxDH https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/na4JMQrUFyajntG5 The Mini's new port layout is indeed surprising: AC power in Built-in 10/100/1000BASE-T ethernet Firewire 800 HDMI Mini DisplayPort Four USB 2.0 ports, down one from the previous Mac Mini SD card slot https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/4piwSKG2QajoUFuk In comparison to the Mac Mini model A1176, the Mid 2010 is thinner and wider. There is a definite difference in height between the Mid 2010 and previous iterations. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/MAGyJ3peoZLiwGqy https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/U2GxWGLvFFlqmQMP https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/2s55WIYOBLjgTVmA With a simple counter-clockwise twist, the black access plate can be removed for easy RAM and fan access. Gone are the days of the putty knife...you will be missed old friend... https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/MY4xrAfS5rTUiqSg https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/SCDjcn61EdmvokER Much like many other new Apple products, removing the RAM is quite feasible this time around. This little guy comes with two SO-DIMM slots capable of supporting up to 8GB of RAM. Our base unit came strapped with two gigs of RAM. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/ZZAODYmmdCHgCEwS After removing two screws, the fan can be lifted out to access its power connector. The connectors inside this machine look pretty consistent with those found in Apple's current product lineup. Nothing too new here. All three fan screws are isolated with rubber dampers; a feature not seen on older apple machines. Low noise and vibration are big selling points for Apple these days, and the new Mini's idle emission of 14 dB is a testament to those design goals. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/mQo1Z4UvatvVCo4P https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/rQNY5q3ZqHWVFt2J Like previous generations, the new Mini is cooled by a single brushless fan. The extremely high blade density of the blower pushes a good amount of air while keeping noise at a minimum. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/OJdd15lFp2nttRDh https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/mhw2S5vC2i2MQQrb The Wi-Fi antenna plate is held in place by four screws. After a good deal of wiggling, the antenna plate can be slid out from under the lip of the outer case. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/TbBE3qH2KUVdOYES https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/EHTuCEhZhMtA6gfU The top Wi-Fi antenna connector is hidden underneath the antenna plate near the hard drive connector. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/fcBLyZuxIbDF5YwW Removing the cowling gives access to various connectors on the logic board: Hard drive flex cable Optical drive flex cable (in the server model, this is where the second hard drive flex cable is) Thermal sensor cables Infrared board cable https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/vDcTdnSFBSbfV1eU https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/dfpJTrwGPPc5kTBm Behold, iFixit's specialized Mac Mini Mid 2010 logic board removal tool! There are two blind holes in the case of the Mini that are meant for the ends of Apple's u-shaped logic board removal tool. Being the shadetree mechanics that we are, we decided to circumvent the special Apple tool in favor of something that works just fine while keeping extra dollars out of Mr. Jobs' pockets. We now carry our own Mac Mini Logic Board Removal Tools (shown in the second picture) designed with a rubberized high-torque handle to the exact specifications needed to remove the logic board without the risk of inserting abrasive tools into a delicate logic board. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/efFO5MZ1LpGsvUkl https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/3mcW146s2F5yjJZ3 Before completely sliding out the logic board assembly, the power supply connector must be disconnected. After disconnecting the power cable, the logic board assembly slides right out. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/3JFARoEWSI2oDu6K https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/UrpcLd3XDQORsIaH https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/lfGVpFhLwQ2LWueB The top and bottom of the logic board and I/O frame assembly. In using unibody construction, Apple had to get creative with the placement of the antennas. Two auxiliary antennas are the square steel components seen at both ends of the I/O frame. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/JcJsOZs1vnEpCVWb https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/5oqyuqNb6PfGYpqM Two screws secure the speaker assembly to the logic board. The Mini's 3/8" woofer dome won't be popping ear drums anytime soon. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/2y1omOxJbOFREQYC https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/b2KXs6DgTv2stGoU Next to where the speaker was located, we find the AirPort Extreme card. The Mac Mini Mid 2010 has 802.11n Wi-Fi wireless networking, as well as Bluetooth 2.1 with Enhanced Data Rate technology. After disconnecting the remaining two antenna connectors and its data cable, the AirPort card can be easily removed from the logic board. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/pTgq5NnfVUQbJEu4 https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/WtppX6kLtpsVKGvH https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/E24yAt5hs2xYRZdc A couple of spring-loaded T8 Torx screws secure the oddly shaped heat sink to the processors. In keeping with its space saving design, the fins directing air toward the vent hole are slanted to allow for better fan placement. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/3MN6bhGfIQmUX3ZK https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/bEFB2hcpgoRDN6W3 The I/O frame is held to the logic board by a few T6 Torx screws. The two I/O bezel antennas are more visible in this picture. The long antenna wires are grounded periodically along their length, presumably for better signal transmission to the important part - the antennas themselves. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/UxI2l2RFicv2n3PC https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/jZ1TiLibVTiPvqRI The bare logic board. The brains of the unit feature: Intel P8600 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo processor NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics processor with 256MB of shared DDR3 SDRAM Other notable chips include: Broadcom BCM57765 integrated gigabit ethernet and memory card reader controller Cirrus 4206ACNZ audio controller Delta LFE9249-R discrete LAN filter https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/lDYQCkBEfXwDQSw4 https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/eBGMrGURJuJjcmlh The Mac Mini comes with either a 320GB or 500GB SATA hard drive. Sadly, there's only one hard drive in our non-server model. Need more storage? Only time will tell if this Mac Mini is as easily modified as its predecessor. For now, we recommend just getting the server edition. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/U6LJprEONwgBNkDX https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/IPlmLqMQGX6jnpfC The new Mini's power supply churns out a minuscule 7 Amps at 12V. Compare that to the 25.8 Amps at 12V cranked out by the iMac Intel 27". Like its iMac cousin, the Mac Mini finally says goodbye to external AC adapters. Holy capacitors! Fingertips beware. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/DOMwGbuw6XhdXsDG https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/fWWkf2oJmhbNgeEI https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/WBLZJVM3uEyc6sJ2 The optical drive bay drive simply slides out of the aluminum unibody housing. Well what do we have here? Is this a new optical drive? Why yes it is!

Post Adolescence will be performing May 17 at El Corazon
A lot went into writing your favorite song, but how much do you really know about it? This week Johnny Straube, singer and guitarist of Seattle garage pop band Political Adolescence, delves into Tea Party antics, ridiculously long song titles and Lord of the Flies.
Post Adolescence will be performing May 17 at El Corazon
Song: "What You Would Call Socialism (I Would Call Civilization)"
Album: Single release
Release Date: 02/10/2012
When was it written: I had been working on the song for months but I didn't finish the lyrics until the day before we went into the studio to record it in late January. With the Tea Party doing something crazy every day, I'd probably still be writing it if I hadn't had a deadline.
Where it was written: Like many of our songs, I composed most of the music and lyrics at home and then the rest of it really came together at practice with the band.
Favorite line in the song: "Someone went and gave the patients the key, a media empire, and made an old joke official: The most trusted news comes from Comedy Central." It's a sad state of affairs when comedians like Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert are more reliable with the news than the major networks.
Which part was the hardest to come up with: We're not one of those "political bands," but I am a political person. I had a lot to get off my chest, but being a pop band, you don't really want to bore everyone with some 10-minute-long dirge. I had a lot of angry and sarcastic things to say and only about four minutes to say it.
If you could go back and change anything, what would it be: I'd record an extended dance-remix version so I could fit in everything I really wanted to say about the Tea Party and Fox News. Of course then we'd have to give it an even more ridiculously long title.
Odd fact about song: If you play this song backwards, it sounds like Michael Moore reading excerpts from Karl Marx's "The Communist Manifesto" in French.
What was your inspiration for writing the song: The candidates in the Republican primaries were just starting to saturate the airwaves when the song was first taking shape. I felt like it was finally time to say something about the absurdity of the Tea Party and how dangerously sloppy news agencies have become.
When was your favorite time performing it live: So far, it would have to be The Sunset where we did the single release. I was launching into a faux-apology to anyone who might be offended by the song when suddenly our bassist, Gar, interjected with some rather colorful words of his own for the Tea Party. That got the crowd going before we'd even started the song.
What is the meaning behind the song: It points out religious and political
hypocrisy. If half of the things the Tea Party cried "Socialism" over were actually done away
with, we'd be living in our own version of Lord of the Flies. When you combine the brutality
of their ideals and complete lack of a grasp on reality with Fox News's pandering to the lowest common denominator, progress dies. There comes a time when you get so fed up you have to take a stand. We did ours with a kick-ass pop song.

It won't be long before every magazine, music blog, and tweet is talking about the 20th birthday of Nirvana's Nevermind, which is just around the corner for those who have lost track of time.
Musicians of every caliber routinely talk about their early influence from Cobain and the gang, and what better way to "tip your hat" to the band that turned the music world upside down than with a 13-song tribute album in the original order?
The folks over at Spin have done just that with Newermind, a tribute record offered for the low, low cost of free that fans can download and share with each other.
The real treat isn't the CD, though--this isn't the first ode to Nirvana, and it certainly won't be the last.
Among the lineup that was gathered, two names particularly stand out: the Meat Puppets and The Vaselines. Both bands were covered in Nirvana's MTV Unplugged performance, which was the first CD released after Cobain's death in April 1994.
The Meat Puppets got the task of covering Nirvana's most well-known song, "Smells Like Teen Spirit," the first track on the album and definitely a major standout. Singer Curt Kirkwood's vocals are raspy, low, and occasionally off-key--a fitting match to the original (though it's weird to be able to make out the lyrics).
Other highlights include "Breed" by Titus Andronicus, a jittery indie-rock version that is fun and loose, and "Come as You Are" by Midnight Juggernauts, which is so far in its own league that calling it "borderline creepy" is an understatement. (It sounds like a mummy is harmonizing with a possessed child . . . or something like that.)
To download the record, just go to Spin's Facebook and enter your e-mail. Unlike the free Lollapalooza mix offered by Spin last month, iTunes is not required for the download, though it'll only be available at the link above until Monday, July 25.
1. "Smells Like Teen Spirit" - Meat Puppets
2. "In Bloom" - Butch Walker & the Black Widows
3. "Come as You Are" - Midnight Juggernauts
4. "Breed" - Titus Andronicus
5. "Lithium" - The Vaselines
6. "Polly" - Amanda Palmer
7. "Territorial Pissings" - Surfer Bood
8. "Drain You" - Foxy Shazam
9. "Lounge Act" - Jessica Lea Mayfield
10. "Stay Away" - Charles Bradley & The Menahan Street Band
11. "On a Plain" - Telekinesis
12. "Something In The Way" - JEFF The Brotherhood
13. "Endless Nameless" - EMA

Intimacy with God
Paul, in Philippians 3:10-12, gives us the other principle for discovering your purpose,
That I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death, if, by any means, I may attain to the resurrection from the dead. Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me.
Paul said, "I am pursuing my purpose," but it was a purpose based on knowing God. Look at what he said in verse 10, That I may know Him.
The understanding of his purpose came out of that primary desire and pursuit of knowing God Himself and living in intimacy with Him.
Perhaps the most important thing you could do in your life right now is to just lock yourself away, grab your Bible, and go sit at the beach. Find that place of communion with God. As you get to know Him, you will also discover your own heart and the dreams and desires that God put within you.
They are there. They may be covered with debris, they may be covered with dust, but they are there. You can find out what they are if you will develop that intimate relationship with God.
It is in closeness with God that His breath blows the dust off of undiscerned and unrecognized purposes and dreams.

Book Club Channel
Reading Guide for "The Pope Who Quit"
"Jon Sweeney, one of my favorite contemporary spiritual writers, turns his considerable talents to the story of the world's best known translation of the world's best known book. By recounting its fascinating history, showing the superlative beauty of its prose, describing its lasting effect on individual believers, and even pointing out its occasional if inadvertent humor (e.g., 'He stinketh'), Sweeney will make you love a beloved translation even more."
—James Martin, S.J., author of the New York Times Bestseller, The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything (for Verily, Verily)
"Like C. S. Lewis, Sweeney is able to appreciate and teach a large-C Catholic understanding while maintaining a small-c catholic identity that is uninterested in fully aligning itself with the church he admires and even seems to accept—in a limited way—as authoritative."
—Elizabeth Scalia, writing for InsideCatholic.com (for Almost Catholic)
"Jon M. Sweeney's Almost Catholic could be about as purely a post-evangelical book as I could recommend, but it is almost entirely about personal spirituality and not the church. Subtitled An Appreciation of the History, Practice and Mystery of Ancient Faith, it's a good popular survey, with a balance of appreciation and creative, critical engagement. Sweeney is less critical toward Catholicism than I would recommend, but the book is still extremely helpful for those who like to wade in, but not swim across, the Tiber."
—Internet Monk.com
"Charming...should find readers among those who enjoy Thomas Merton's writings or Philip Gröning's documentary film Into Great Silence."
—Graham Christian, Library Journal (for Cloister Talks)
"An informational yet personal account of the transformative power of the Catholic and Orthodox churches' special role models. Sweeney, in very accessible concepts and language, presents a marvelously contemporary and inclusive theology of sanctity and saints....both a miniature encyclopedia on saints and a book of spiritual reflection."
—Catholic Library World (for The Lure of Saints)
"Sweeney achieves a fine balance between excellent scholarship and sweet accessibility for every average reader. To learn the life of Francis, to learn to love that life, and at the same time to experience the time in which he lived, this is the book to read."
—Walter Wangerin, Jr., author of The Book of God (for The Road to Assisi)
"Fundamentalists and those who love them will appreciate Sweeney's abiding affection for the faith he left, while those who fear the religious right may be relieved to discover that it has a gentle side."
—Publishers Weekly, (for Born Again and Again)
"If you ever wondered what a monk's life might be like, if you don't mind looking into a mirror to see the craziness of life in our culture, if you think you might splurge and go deeper with God, Sweeney shares his cloistered, very human and wise friends with us as companions along the way.
—James C. Howell, author of The Beautiful Work of Learning to Pray (for Cloister Talks)
"Over a century after its 1894 release, this excellent biography of Francis of Assisi has been re-released with some delicate editing by Jon Sweeney. In his Introduction, Sweeney pays tribute to author Paul Sabatier, making it clear that this biography remains timeless due to the French biographer's extensive research as well as his ability to capture the true humanity of St. Francis.... One of the highlights of this new edition is Jon Sweeney's sidebar commentary, which adds a satisfying layer of depth and richness to Sabatier's text."
—Gail Hudson, Religion Editor, Amazon.com (for The Road to Assisi)

I am highly risk averse, and I like planning things down to the tiniest of details before I act...IF I act. Half the time I convince myself that it isn't worth acting upon...which, of course, is the point of the exercise much of the time. Regret is a complete waste of time, so I prefer to ensure I don't regret anything by making damn sure that if I'm going to do something, it is worth doing...or not worth doing, as the case may be.
In an abstract sense, I like contemplating things as well - brooding, most would call it, although I'd like to think I've moved beyond my broody teen stage and that I'm just reflective - so I spend more time thinking than doing as often as not. I'm a dreadfully dull individual.

I strenuously dispute the contention that the same person signed on 18a and 19a, staring with the capital Ms and then the 8s in the date.
Here is my response to Charlton refuting his claim that an MD signed in 19a, and note that his subsequent response offered no contradiction to my point but rather only encouraged further citizen journalism:
January 11, 2010 at 12:53 PM
Mr. Charlton: When I look at the Blaine document, I see no certifying signature by a "Doctor" in field 19a "Signature of Attendant" as you claimed at the time, but only the signature of a person designated "Other" and specifically _not_ designated as MD.
While it is true that an MD wouldn't honestly sign as an attendant if they weren't there, a person that accompanied Grandma to the office of the local registrar to "witness" that a Kenya birth in an unknown hospital had been reported to Grandma might well have signed it.
It might be that the policy and procedures for the local registrar mandated putting the declared city of residence as "Location of Birth" in field 6a for out-of-state births allowed under HI Law 57, and for a "witness" to sign as a second person with "knowledge of the birth" to attest on line 19a "Attendant" in the case of a late, out-of-state birth report.
I don't think that the actual attendant at an out-of-state birth be expected to show up at the local registrar's office in HI to sign a late certificate of birth, but a second person with knowledge of the birth could well have been instructed to sign on that line as "Other."
I strongly suggest that you, Leo DDonofrio and John Hemenway take another look at the Blaine BC. I am disappointed to hear that Blaine wont make the provenance of the original available so far. Again, it maps to the Factcheck COLB and allows Fukino to say that the Location of Birth on the HI vital record says Honolulu without mentioning that it also says that the hospital was Unknown Kenya, Africa.
unbelievable he didn't grasp that!
That would be unreasonable to expect the actual out-of-state attendant to appear locally and sign the late cert. So yeah, it's completely possible and reasonable that someone else signed it as other.
I have no formal handwriting analysis training and am certainly not disagreeing with your judgement that the signatures were entered by two different persons. The differences in the 'M's and the '8's are, indeed, very obvious. However, I believe it can also be stated that the two signatures perhaps have areas of "similarity" in their general style,letter slant,letter closure properties, etc. Thus, there at least exists the possibility that both signatures were entered by the same person.
What are the ramifications if the same person, presumably Grandma, did in fact sign in both box 18a (as Madelyn Payne Dunham) and box 19a (as Martin Blaine E-?-n). Would this mean that the document must be declared bogus? I don't think we could conclude this!
It's my general impression that virtually all the major players involved in this entire mess, including Grandma, were very adept at "gaming" the system. We have no way of knowing what really transpired 50 or so years ago when the Blaine COLB application document was submitted. I assume conditions in the government records offices at that time were rather disorganized. Hawaii had only been a state for a few years. Perhaps Grandma couldn't or didn't wish to involve another live person as "witness" in this Kenyan-birth, mixed-race matter. Maybe she chose to just forge the name given in box 19a and submit the document herself to the local registrar! Who could now truthfully say that this could not have happened?
Thus, even if the same person signed on 18a and 19a, I believe the document could still be authentic.

I'm trying to build several inline image galleries using Easy Fancybox. A good example of what I'm trying to do is on this site: http://www.joematteson.com/
This site is for a photographer and would like each of her galleries to open like the above site. Because this site is for someone that isn't particularly computer savvy, updating the inline "galleries" needs to be somewhat simple. This is why I'm trying to use a plugin instead of just copying the code from another site. I have tried a handful of different ways but no luck. Does anyone have any suggestions on this?

WHITEWRIGHT, TX -- Skydive Dallas in Whitewright says the jumper who was injured in a skydiving accident Saturday afternoon has been released from the hospital and is in good condition.
He reportedly suffered some bruising and a minor fracture after falling about 75 feet.
We are told his parachute was fully deployed, but he encountered some turbulence that twisted his lines and he performed an emergency landing.
His name has not been released, but Skydive Dallas says he is an experienced gold medal jumper.
