- Publisher's Summary
- Though incomplete at the time of his death in 1849, Chopin's Projet de methode was nonetheless revolutionary in many respects. But with his Fundamental Pattern, Chopin announced the recognition, if not discovery, of the keyboard's extraordinary topographical symmetry and postulated a core formulation for a new "pianistic" pedagogy. More than a hundred years later the now-legendary Heinrich Neuhaus would passionately plead for this pedagogy and a pianism rooted in it. Natural Fingering explores this remarkable symmetry, significantly as it sheds light on fingering matters for the now vast catalogue of repertoire. It also examines the revolutionary impact of equal temperament on compositional key choice as well as the liberating influence of Charles Eschmann-Dumur's unique discoveries regarding symmetrical inversion. Principles for a topographically-based fingering strategy are developed that reflect a surprising compatibility of this fixed symmetrical organization with the most efficient biokinetic capabilities of the pianist's playing mechanism. Previously neglected or overlooked technical aspects of pianism are addressed as they relate to movement in keyboard space generally as well as fingering specifically. Symmetrical fingerings for all the fundamental forms are presented in innovative, instructive format. The reader will also find an unusually extensive, in-depth discussion of double note challenges. Answering Neuhaus's call for the reappraisal of a certain pedagogical status quo, several chapters are devoted to the relevant implications of Chopin's Fundamental Pattern. The author also advances guidelines for a progressive implementation of natural fingering principles from the very start, as well as "retooling" for teachers and students alike. Of special note are the cross-hand major and minor scales for the earliest stages, in which the necessity of thumb under/hand over pivoting actions is eliminated. Natural Fingering is the first comprehensive discussion of fingering solutions for pianists since Hummel's monumental treatise of 1828. The book is complemented by a companion website where readers can access excerpts from the repertoire with fingering solutions, read extended discussions, and download comprehensive lists of scales with appropriate fingerings.

Most bikes I've carried ever. Technically there are 5 there, not sure if the 2 kids bikes count though. Showing a little sag in my hitch. The 2.225" 16-inch kid bike tires I found fit great though, no issues there anymore. Never went above 3rd gear or 7 MPH...more for stability and trying to not break anything.
Labor Day picnic in the park. One propane BBQ grill, 20# propane bottle, spare 5# bottle, ice chest ( full when I left home) , 13x9' fly screen gazebo, 4 folding chairs. Probably the biggest load my Mundo has carried to date.

Cars made me fat. Now cars want to make me flat.
I've gotten pretty used to hauling a 25 pound speaker box on my bike.. last month I rode 45 miles in one night with it.. rode about 65 miles in just the last week including a 30 mile trip. I've noticed with more weight you can't accelerate as quickly but the additional inertia means you slow down less due to air resistance.. or at least that's how it feels.

Went to the farmer's market, a coffee shop then, the playground with my wife and son this morning. Both my wife and I have been commuting for years and often run errands on our way home, however this is the first time we've all gone out as a family. I guess I felt that my son either wasn't ready or interested yet. I just picked up a Trek 800 for $50 on CL and, this is exactly what it's for. Flat pedals, rear rack, U lock: I got it last Wed and have already run multiple errands to Giant, CVS, LBS, for mundane but necessary things. I work from home on Fridays now and rode to a restaurant down the street for lunch. Although I do a lot of other types of riding, I've depended, too heavily, on the car for local errands-not any more. This is so much cheaper, funner and, more convenient. I guess I was scared of my other bikes getting stolen and, didn't always feel like putting on my riding shoes for local errands. This is back to basics cycling and, I've missed it.
die trying
everyone likes my shirt
Told my daughter I would pick her up after school... I think she was expecting that I was going to drive.
She decided she would start riding to school on Monday... it is only a mile away.
When I did that my daughter made me wait at the far end of the playground so her friends wouldn't see her straddled on the back of my old Raleigh. She wouldn't rather walk though... Better biking roads back in Virgina than here in Texas.
We are experiencing an Indian Summer spell here (some 60 miles North of Niagara Falls), so I broke out the Yuba Mundo and went grocery shopping at the local Wally World. It's the kind of day that you can't help but smile, out on a bike.
Always takes me a couple of minutes to get used to low-speed maneuvering on the Mundo again (especially tight turns around pipe obstructions). Quite a bit different feel at low speeds, from my other shorter wheelbase city bikes (like Cannondale, Dahon or a Trek). I use mostly back-roads, including going through a local park (with narrow gates --- to discourage motorcycles I guess?), but I have to get diagonally across one busy intersection, to get into the Stupor Center. Way too dangerous for us slow-poke retirees to use either road at this one choke-point, so I exit the bank's lot, cross at the pedestrian stripes to the local convenience-store lot, and do a tight "circle" on the open grass at the half-way point, waiting for the light to change, so I can scoot towards the shopping car-trap-lot. Takes me some extra care, not to look silly and fall off, doing those tight circles!
Fortunately the local Wally has a decent (tall) bike rack, where I can properly lock up the Beast. I think I haul more weight in U-locks and cable-stringers (to secure the saddle against casual theft), than groceries! Supposed to be nice for the next couple of days, so guess I get to practice my tight turns, some more.
Rode uptown to have dinner with my mother.

Nice bright somewhat-cool day (after rain, the last couple of days), so I took out the winter-weather beater for a shake-down, before the white stuff lands. Lots of wet leaves on the road, and that can be more treacherous than ice. Off to the pharmacy, and a bit of grocery shopping. It's become a ritual at the check-out --- the cashier asks "Air miles?" and I respond, "No --- bicycle miles". When they ask, "How many bags you want?" I tell 'em "None, I'll just load it all, on the bike, thanks."
They all look at me somewhat puzzled, wondering what's with this weird ol' geezer. Oh well ...
Took my daughter to the emergency room (no pics). Turned out nothing serious was wrong.
Took our old broken hot water tank to the recycle yard. Along the way I came to a fork in the path, left went up and over a MUP over pass. Right I nice flat detour thru a traffic light, both ending up at the same place. Two sides of me argued. The "I want a challenge" won. So left I went and regret soon followed. Lowest spot in gear range and nearly came a stop before the crest, the 180 hairpin turn to the ramp didn't help matters.

Not much of a load but it was 30 mile round trip, with 1200' elevation gain for 15 miles. A prescription, floss, and beer. All necessary.
I've become a monster since I discovered that one of the few paved bike trails in town dumps out right next to a large home improvement store. Today's haul: Landscaping mulch.
Loaded up a bunch of old dead electronics to haul to a local school that hosted a weekend long disposal event. It was only about 6 km to the school, so after delivering the cargo, my wife and I continued on to the lakeshore for a nice ride.
Took the empties to the depot and then stopped at the re-store to pick up craft supplies...

The present invention relates to a heating unit for live mammalian subjects, including humans. The unit employs radiant heat to increase internal temperatures, including increases to elevated levels considered to have a therapeutic effect on cancer.
Cancer is currently treated by surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or combinations of the foregoing. However, there is an increasing recognition that hyperthermia--a condition of greatly elevated body temperature--may provide significant therapeutic effects on cancer, including that not responsive or amenable to conventional treatment. Hyperthermic treatment of cancer involves raising the temperature of the patient to 41.8�-42� C. (approximately 107� F.) and maintaining that temperature for a predetermined period of time. The entire body of the patient is usually heated so that the technique has become known as "whole body hyperthermia." Hyperthermia is typically used in combination with other treatment such as chermotherapy or radiation.
To date, a variety of techniques have been used to produce the hyperthermia condition. These techniques include immersing the patient in hot wax; placing the patient in a suit or under a blanket containing ducts for heated fluid; withdrawing blood from the body, heating it, and returning it to the body; diathermy in which an R-F coupling is established between the body and a high frequency energy source; and applying ultrasonic energy to the patient. However, such approaches exhibit one or more limitations or shortcomings. These include the need for general anesthesia with the attendant medical risk, the need for specialized personnel and/or facilities, the danger of burns to the patient due to heat concentration of hot spots in the equipment, the possibility of blood damage to the patient, extensive and complex temperature monitoring and regulation apparatus, prolonged heating times, and cumbersomeness of the equipment.
Further, inasmuch as hyperthermia is carried out at temperatures only slightly below those that can cause death, the operating characteristics of the apparatus used to establish and maintain the hyperthermic condition can be extremely critical.
It is, therefore, the object of the present invention to avoid the shortcomings of the above techniques and provide improved apparatus for effectively and accurately raising the internal or core temperature of live animals, particularly mammalian subjects including humans, to a desired level with a commensurate degree of safety.
By contrast to the approaches heretofore taken, the apparatus of the present invention utilizes radiant heat. Briefly, the present invention contemplates apparatus having a wall member defining a cavity appropriate for receiving the subject. A stretcher or other means is provided by which the subject may be positioned in the cavity. An electric heating cable on the exterior of the wall member heats the member in a highly uniform manner and efficiently and effectively radiates heat to the subject. Electric circuitry is connectable to a source of electric power for energizing and controlling the electric heating cable.
The wall member is typically a cylindrical copper sheet closed at one end and containing sealing doors at the other, through which the body of the patient is received in the cavity. The electric heating cable is applied in a uniform pattern over the cylindrical sheet and covered with insulation. The cable is preferably a plurality of segments energized in parallel to provide low density, uniform radiant heat sufficient to raise the core temperature to the desired level during an appropriate time period while avoiding burns or other skin injury, as from localized hot spots.
The apparatus provides close control of temperature and a high degree of repeatability. Temperature sensors are included in the circuitry for controlling the energization of the electric heating cable responsive to wall member temperature and to desired and maximum permissible temperatures in the chamber.
The present invention is low in cost with respect to both apparatus costs and treatment costs. It is anticipated that the present invention will permit elimination of general anesthesia to the patient. This will reduce the attendant requirements for highly specialized personnel and facilities and permit carrying out hyperthermic treatment with a smaller number of people trained in hyperthermia.
While the present invention is described herein in the context of hyperthermic treatment of cancer it will be appreciated that other applications may well arise. For example, the apparatus may be used to treat victims of exposure by safely restoring their depressed body temperatures to the normal level. The possibility of its use in the treatment of diseases of the joints also comes to mind.

FIG. 2 is a fragmentary perspective view of the unit showing additional details thereof.
FIG. 3 is a partially cut-away perspective view of the unit.

FIG. 1 shows apparatus 10 of the present invention for raising the internal or core temperature of live animals, particularly mammalian subjects, including humans. Apparatus 10 includes housing 12 mounted on framework 14, shown most clearly in FIGS. 3 and 4. Framework 14 includes coasters 16 lending mobility to the unit.
Wall member 18 is supported by framework 14. As shown most clearly in FIG. 3, wall member 18 includes wall 20 sealed by disc 22 at one end to form a tubular chamber 24 in which the subject or a selected portion of the subject, such as his/her body is received, as hereinafter described. The cylindrical configuration of wall 20 assists in even heat distribution in chamber 24. Wall member 18 is preferably formed from sheet copper material so that the member has an emissivity that enhances its effectiveness as a radiator. Copper is a good uniform conductor of heat helping to avoid localized hot spots and skin burns to the subject. Copper also has good heat retention properties providing consistent temperatures by avoiding sudden temperature changes.
Rails 26 are positioned on wall member 18 for receiving carriage 28 for stretcher 30 on which the subject is placed. Rails 26 may be mounted on bands 27 that extend around the interior of wall 20 in the middle and rear of chamber 24, as shown in FIG. 3. Bands 27 may be expanded by toggle mechanisms, not shown to clamp the bands, and hence rails 26, to wall 20. The use of bands 27 avoids the need to puncture wall 20 and the need for seals and the like to maintain the integrity of chamber 24. The cleaning of chamber 24 is also facilitated since bands 27 and rails 26 can be removed from chamber 24.
Carriage 28 includes head rest 32 for the subject, a panel 33 that assists in closing chamber 24, and a handle 34 by which the carriage, stretcher, and subject are moved into and out of chamber 24.
The open end of wall member 18 is closed by a pair of insulated doors 36 and 38 forming opening 40 through which the neck of the patient extends so that his/her head can rest on head rest 32. Doors 36 and 38 are shaped as an inverted L and have retaining means such as channel 42 for receiving a sealing collar 43 that goes around the neck of the patient to seal opening 40. The doors are sealed at the bottom by head rest 32. Doors 36 and 38 are provided with hinges 44 and 46 along outer edges and held closed by magnetic latches 48 and 50 at their inner edges. Doors 36 and 38 and head rest panel 33 may be provided with gaskets that seal these elements to wall member 18 or housing 12 when they are closed. Because the head rest 32 is coupled to stretcher 30 and because L-shaped doors open in the center, the insertion and, particularly, removal of the subject and associated medical equipment and instrumentation from chamber 24 is facilitated. In emergencies with humans, the patient can be removed from chamber 24 by pulling handle 34 outwardly and allowing the patient's shoulders to swing open doors 36 and 38.
Housing 12 includes control panel 52 for the electrical circuitry shown in FIG. 6.
Means are provided on wall member 18 to heat the wall member and chamber 24. As shown in the Figures, such means may comprise electric heating cable 54 wrapped about the exterior of wall 20 so that the wall member can assist in diffusing the heat from the cable. The cable may be wrapped circumferentially, as shown in FIG. 3 and the turns spaced along the periphery of the wall member to provide uniform heating to the wall member to avoid establishing localized hot spots on wall member 18. The turns of cable 54 will typically be uniformly spaced along wall 20, possibly with minor variations because of frame 14 or other localized anomalies. A retaining or spacer means, not shown, may be provided to hold cable 54 in position on wall 20. Cable 54 is available from several sources including the Continental Wire and Cable division of Anaconda Copper Co. and the Wire and Cable Division of the General Electric Company. As shown in FIG. 5, cable 54 may comprise an internal metal resistance wire 56; an asbestos, plastic, or rubber sheath 58 surrounding and insulating the wire; and an outer braided metal jacket 60 for armoring and electrically grounding the cable. Electric resistance wire 56 may be a single conductor of 19 or 20 gauge having a resistance of approximately 675 ohms per circular mil foot at 20� C. The conductor is surrounded by 0.045 inch thick silicon rubber sheath 58 and a nickel plated copper shield braid.
The heating of wall member 18 by the heating means, such as cable 54, is subject to two, somewhat divergent, considerations. A sufficient quantity of radiant heat must be provided from wall member 18 to raise the core temperature of the subject in chamber 24 by a physiologically significant amount in a desired period of time. A physiologically significant temperature increase may be that necessary to cause the subject to enter the hyperthermic state. In accordance with this consideration, cable 54 may provide a heat input sufficient to raise the core temperature of the subject at least 4� C. within a period of 120 minutes by the radiant heat in chamber 24. More particularly the apparatus should be capable of raising the core temperature of the subject 4� to 5� C. in a period of 60 to 120 minutes.
At the same time, however, the density of heating, or heat output per unit area of wall member 18, should be sufficiently uniform and low as to minimize the possibility of superficial injury to the subject, such as burns, from wall temperature conditions, and particularly from localized hot spots in the wall member.
The weight of the subject may serve as a factor in the selection of the heat input from the electric heating means. For heating animal subjects having a weight of 70 kg (154 lbs) in an appropriately sized chamber 24, an electric heating cable having a power rating of about 1,000 watts has been employed.
As shown most clearly in FIG. 4, tubular wall member 18 and cable 54 are surrounded by an insulating material 64 such as glass fiber insulation, that is held on tubular member 18 by wrapper 66 formed of metal or other material.
Electrical circuitry for energizing heating cable 54 is shown in FIG. 6. Heating cable 54 is preferably divided into a plurality of segments connected in parallel to insure even heating throughout tubular chamber 24. This may be accomplished by the appropriate electrical connection of taps along the heating cable. FIG. 6 shows, for exemplary purposes, heating cable 54 divided into four quarter segments 54a, 54b, 54c, and 54d.
Circuitry 70 is connectable to an a.c. power source 72, such as conventional 120 volt, 60 cycle alternating current supply 72 having energized line 74 and neutral line 76. Conductors 78 and 80 of circuitry 70 are connected to lines 74 and 76 and contain ground fault interrupter 82 requiring manual reset. Ground fault interrupter 82 deenergizes circuitry 70 in the event of an electrical failure to lessen or avoid shock hazards in apparatus 10. Conductor 78 contains power switch 84 and relay contacts 86a, which when closed, permit parallel energization of heating cable segments 54a through 54d through conductor 80.
Indicator lamp 88 is connected across lines 78 and 80 to indicate when main power switch 84 is closed.
A plurality of elements are also connected across lines 78 and 80 to control the operation of electric heating cable 54. These include timer 90 by which the time period of energizing cable 54 may be established. Thermostat 92, which may be of the normally closed, bimetallic type is placed on wall 20 of wall member 18 to sense the temperature of the wall for deenergizing electric cable 54 in the event the temperature rises above a desired maximum value. Typically thermostat 92 will be set to open at 60� C. (140� F.) and reclose at 54� C. (130� F.) and is preferably not operator accessible or adjustable. Limiting the wall temperature to this magnitude lessens or avoids the danger of skin burns from apparatus 10. Thermostat 94 may be mounted in tubular chamber 24 at a location appropriate to sense the temperature inside the chamber. Thermostat 94 may be of the normally closed, fluid expansion type. It is not operator adjustable but is preset to open at the maximum temperature desired in the chamber. This is typically 70� C. (160� F.). The thermostat will close at 68� C. (155� F.) and below. Thermostat 96 is also placed in tubular chamber 24 at a location to sense the temperature in the chamber. Thermostat 96 may also be of the normally closed, fluid expansion type and is adjustable by the operator to establish a selected temperature in the chamber less than the maximum temperature established by thermostat 94. The coil 86b of relay 86 is connected in series with timer 90 and thermostats 92, 94, and 96 across lines 78 and 80. Coil 86b operates contacts 86a in line 78. Indicator lamp 98 indicates when relay contacts are closed and heating cable 54 is energized.
In use, the patient may be prepared for hyperthermic treatment in apparatus 10 by light sedation. The temperature indicators necessary to monitor internal temperature will be placed in the patient, as for example, through the use of rectal, esophageal, and/or cardiac probes. Sensors for other physiological functions, such as respiration and heart beat rate, are also applied to the patient.
The patient will be placed on stretcher 30 with his/her head resting on headrest 32. The patient is slid into tubular chamber 24 on stretcher 30 with his/her head outside chamber 24. Doors 36 and 38 are closed and collar 43 placed around the neck of the patient to tightly seal opening 40 making chamber 24 a closed system. Timer 90 is set for the maximum treatment time. Thermostat 96 is set for the maximum temperature desired in chamber 24. Power switch 84 is closed to energize heating cable 54. The contacts of timer 90, the thermostats 92, 94, and 96 are closed, energizing relay coil 86b of relay 86 and closing relay contacts 86a. This permits energization of electric cable 54. The energization of cable 56 heat copper wall member 18 radiating heat to the patient on the stretcher. The internal or core temperature of the patient is monitored through the temperature probes. The temperatures obtained from the rectal temperature probe are typically considered the core temperature of the patient for treatment purposes. The sealing of opening 40 by collar 43 causes the perspiration of the patient to maintain a condition of saturation or near saturation in chamber 24 limiting patient heat loss by evaporation. Fluids lost through perspiration are restored intravenously. As the temperature of the patient increases, his/her metabolic heat generation increases substantially to supplement the radiant heat from wall member 18 in attaining the hyperthermic state.
When the desired core temperature is reached in the patient, the patient may be removed from tubular chamber 24 and covered with a blanket to minimize evaporative heat losses. Through the loss of thermo-regulatory capability brought about by the hyperthermic condition, the desired internal temperature of the patient is maintained by the heat generated by increased metabolic activity without the need for external heat application. When the patient has remained in the hyperthermic condition for the desired period of time, the blanket is removed to allow cooling by evaporation and the restoration of normal temperature regulation. Should the patient require additional cooling to terminate the hyperthermic condition, this may be achieved by a cooling blanket or an alcohol sponge bath.
A typical test of apparatus 10, utilized a 70 kg (154 lb) pig as an animal subject. Such an animal subject resembles a human in body weight, fat distribution and in cardic, liver and respiratory physiology. It, however, does not perspire. The animal, appropriately instrumented, was placed in apparatus 10 and heating cable 54 energized. The internal or core temperature of the animal, measured rectally, was raised to 41.8� C. in about 80 minutes. Skin temperature rose to 42.5� C. Air temperature near the wall did not exceed 65� C. (149� F.) while adjacent to the animal, the temperature was 46� C. (114� F.). The pig was then removed from apparatus 10 and hyperthermic conditions maintained for two additional hours at the end of which the internal temperature was 41.6� C. The experiment was then terminated by a liberal ethanol bath. In about 90 minutes internal temperature fell to 38� C. (100� F.).
Tests of the above described type suggest the suitability of the present invention for use with humans.

You have many excellent photos in your gallery which Panoramio don't put in Google Earth! Sometimes maybe because you have labelled them so they look like copied postcards, or they are too small, but they deserve to be shown more! Best wishes - Jim

Schoeller explains, "This year's theme was a 'Space Galaxy Christmas,' and we wanted to go vintage with the visuals (instead of the obvious NASA direction), appropriating the poster for 'A Trip to the Moon,' a French silent film by Georges Méliès. As with past holiday cards, we shoot and composite everything in house. The whole studio gets involved in the brainstorming and art direction, and my photo assistants take the lead on shooting. We look forward to it every year, and always try to top the past." Credit View full screen Here in the photo department, we receive some inspired holiday cards from photographers.

Team Analysis
There are some people who think the Chargers are still a playoff contender, but they are no were close to reaching the post season. The offense could be one of the worst in the NFL. Rivers is regressing by the second, Matthews can't stay healthy, the receiving corps is mediocre at best, and the offensive line is one of the worst in the league. On the defensive side of the ball, the front seven could end up being fairly solid, but the secondary will be torched by any decent quarterback they face. The Chargers could still put up a respectable 5 or 6 wins next season, but that is only because the division is so weak aside from Denver. San Diego could easily be picking in the top 5 this draft, which means Phillip Rivers could be seeing his final snaps as a Charger.
Projected Wins

 The wall thickness of the shell is about 1mm. Same as the T-Gyroid model.

 I know exactly what you say, as I face the same problem each time I upload a model.
 I am trying to use 1mm wall thickness, also I try to make my models' surfaces look like a "grid" or any similar grid surface, just to keep the price down.

 However, whatever I tried on a 30cm model... gets immediately expensive... ]]> __DF__ 2009-12-04T15:06:50-00:00 Re: Shapeways' 3D prints, part of an exhibition in Athens http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=8079&th=1613#msg_8079 <![CDATA[thanks for the fast answer.

A Hiking Trip Proves Sweat Free
By PHILIP SHABECOFF
Published: January 5, 1997
IT can only be described as a day care center for baby seals. We came across it on our third day of hiking along the Hollyford Track in Fjordland National Park, in the far southwest of New Zealand's South Island. Led by Lucy Hodgson, a small, rugged marine biologist, seven visitors from the United States had scrambled across a half mile of boulders to the seal colony on the far point of Martins Bay. We sat on the rocks eating sandwiches and watching the sleek marine mammals sunning themselves, sliding from their perches to frolic in the Tasman Sea and jockeying pugnaciously for favorite spots on the rocks.
As we headed back to the trail, we noticed Charley, the energetic teen-ager in our party, sprawled atop a boulder staring at something below. Jumping across the rocks to join him, we saw a small pool, protected by a ring of boulders from the ocean, containing two dozen or so seals, most only a few months old, guarded by three adults. Lucy told us the adults were all females -- nannies as it were.
Enchanted, we watched for nearly an hour as the little seals gamboled or slept on the rocks. Although we sat only a few feet away, the seals did not seem perturbed by our presence. When Charley inched himself along a boulder to stretch out next to a sleeping pup, the seal did not stir until he started petting it. Then, opening its eyes slowly, it jumped up and scuttled to the protection of one of the older seals.
The baby seal pool was one of several transcendent encounters our party, all nature and wildlife lovers, experienced on the Hollyford. Another came just a few miles down the trail, winding along Martins Bay. Growing hot in the midday sunshine, we took a quick dip in another small protected pool. We had no bathing suits but after three days together on the trail and two nights in close quarters in compact lodges, we were practically family. So we stripped to our underwear and immersed ourselves in the clear, bracing water.
As we dried ourselves, Lucy pointed down the bay. ''Dolphins,'' she shouted. About a half mile away, a pair of dolphins breached and made their graceful arc back into the water. Behind them a second pair leaped into view and others behind them both singly and in pairs -- we counted more than 20 and watched in delight as they moved toward us, passing just 50 yards off the cove in which we stood.
The Hollyford Track, a narrow 35-mile-long footpath that follows the Hollyford River Valley from the heart of the Southern Alps to the Tasman Sea, was the highlight of a three-week visit last March to New Zealand, a trip that took us from the far north of the North Island to the far south of the South Island. Hiking through the Southern Alps of Fjordland Park on the South Island was the reason four of us -- my wife, Alice, and I and our friends Irene and Alan Wurtzel -- had decided to travel from Washington to the antipodes. We had been led to believe that New Zealand was one of the most unspoiled places on earth and that the west coast of its South Island was a place of spectacular beauty. We were not disappointed.
We had planned on hiking the Milford Track, the most famous of the trails through Fjordland. But we decided to go on the Hollyford Track, two valleys over. We did not want to work too hard, and the Milford trail runs along the face of the mountains, requiring several steep climbs and descents. The Hollyford runs for most of its length at sea level along the Hollyford River and Lake McKerrow. While we are all in good shape, we are in our 60's and feel no need to affirm our hardihood.
More important in our choice of the Hollyford was our desire to experience the wilderness in solitude. Guided parties on the Milford can include up to 40 people; on the Hollyford the touring company limits groups to 10 or 12. And, according to Lucy Hodgson, some 12,500 people a year hike the better-known Milford, compared with 1,500 on the Hollyford. Aside from the pleasant young Kiwis who cooked and cared for us at the trailside lodges, we ran across only two other solitary hikers and one lone sports angler in the three-day trek.
Our jumping off point was Te Anau, a resort town on Lake Te Anau, the biggest lake on the South Island. We arrived late for a briefing the evening before we left because we had stopped that afternoon near Queenstown, a couple of hours' drive away, for a raft trip on the Kawarau River. Our briefer, Phil Robinson, from the touring company Hollyford Valley Walk Limited, would be our guide for the first half day. He told us what clothes to bring -- well broken-in boots are essential -- gave us a brief overview of our itinerary, and passed out small backpacks to carry clothes, toiletries and a boxed lunch.
The next morning Phil drove us in a small bus to the trail head, about an hour away. On the bus we met the rest of our party, Susan and Brad Foster and their 14-year-old son, Charley, of Memphis. They were experienced backpackers and lively and delightful companions. After stopping for coffee, doughnuts and a few last-minute supplies at Gunn's Camp, owned by the grandson of one of the early settlers of the Hollyford Valley, we shouldered our packs and set off.

The Icelandic government, two Icelandic municipal authorities and the EFLA engineering company signed a memorandum of understanding to promote the creation of a new port in the northeast corner of Iceland.
SSA Marine's Oakland International Container Terminal will make appointments mandatory for the majority of containerized import pick-ups in order to shorten lines at terminal gates and speed up cargo delivery to customers.
The company plans to accept the weights that clients provide as certified, but if clients are not able to provide the certified weight, it will weigh the cargo on their behalf.
Registration takes less than 1 minute.
The proposed alliance would become a dominant player in the three major east-west trades, beating out total capacity currently offered by the 2M Alliance on those trade lanes, according to an analysis from BlueWater Reporting.
APM Terminals will expand its presence in the Port of Tangier, opposite its long-established terminal in Algeciras, Spain, by building a second $863 million port complex that will have the ability to handle 5 million TEUs annually.
The Water Resources Development Act reauthorization includes provisions sought by the nation's port authorities related to how harbor deepening projects are funded, getting more money for maintenance dredging in the pipeline and authorizing new projects.

The Mask: Scary New Face of Internet Intrusion
Ultra-sophisticated attack tool might have originated from a state-sponsored intelligence service.
Kaspersky Labs has announced the discovery of an advanced cyber-espionage tool. The tool, which is known as Careto or "The Mask," appears to have been created by a Spanish-speaking native. Experts believe Careto was developed to attack targets such as diplomatic institutions, government agencies, oil and gas companies, research organizations, and activist groups. The sophistication of the tool, and the pattern of victims discovered so far, has led some experts to speculate that Careto was developed by a state-sponsored spy agency. So far, researchers have identified victims in 31 countries.
Versions of Careto exist for Windows, Mac OS, and Linux systems. According to reports, the attacker sends a link through email that appears to come from a reputable source. When the victim clicks on the link, the target system is scanned for vulnerabilities, and Careto burrows in. The tool has a modular architecture, which means the attacker can upload new components to tailor the attack once Careto has infiltrated the network.
According to Kaspersky, "For the victims, an infection with Careto can be disastrous. Careto intercepts all communication channels and collects the most vital information from the victim's machine. Detection is extremely difficult because of stealth rootkit capabilities, built-in functionalities, and additional cyber-espionage modules."
Early versions of Careto date to 2007, and the tool was active until January of this year. Kaspersky says its investigation has caused the attacker's command and control servers for Careto to shut down in order to avoid discovery.

- Texturing stones. Whether fish or fowl (or anything else), your work will look more realistic with the correct surface textures. That s where abrasive stones come into play. But determining which ones to use often calls for some experimentation.
Your dealer will have a colorful batch of stones to choose from -- pink, green, white, and blue are usual. Each color denotes a different grit and hardness. For the stones shown above (8), white is the finest grit, thus the slowest cutting. Where the colors rank in relation to each other seems to vary among manufacturers; ask your dealer for specific advice.
Selecting texturing stones isn t a precise science. Try different combinations of color and shape until you find the ones that give the look you want. Because stones only cost a buck or two each, you can afford to fool around with a lot of them.

My doctor's office was really busy this morning, the doctor had to keep going back and forth from his office to the hospital all morning long. He told me during my appt. that he was going to call the hospital and schedule my induction and call me later this afternoon to tell me the details and he never did. Should I call the office tomorrow to see what the deal is?
I don't want to be pushy or anything but this is kind of a big deal! I've only been waiting 9 months. lol

PRESCRIBED FOR: Eszopiclone is used for the treatment of insomnia characterized by difficulty falling asleep and/or difficulty maintaining sleep during the night and early morning.
SIDE EFFECTS: The most common side effects of eszopiclone are:
Eszopiclone is a controlled substance. Patients taking eszopiclone or any other sedative drug may become dependent on the drug for sleep and experience withdrawal symptoms when the drug is discontinued.
GENERIC: Yes
PRESCRIPTION: Yes
PREPARATIONS: Tablets of 1, 2, and 3 mg
STORAGE: Tablets should be stored at room temperature, 15 C - 30 C (59 F - 86 F).
DOSING: The usual dose to improve or maintain sleep in most adults is 2 or 3 mg before bedtime. Persons over the age of 65 years usually are treated with 1 or 2 mg. Eszopiclone should be taken immediately before going to bed since the onset of sedation may occur as rapidly as 10 minutes. It should be taken only by individuals who intend to sleep for at least 8 hours since its effects may last up to six hours. A high fat meal reduces the absorption of eszopiclone and may reduce its effect.
DRUG INTERACTIONS: Alcohol (which causes sedation) and drugs that have sedating effects should not be used with eszopiclone since their sedating effects, when added to those of eszopiclone, may cause excessive sedation. Drugs that reduce the action of liver enzymes that break down eszopiclone (for example, ketoconazole [Nizoral, Extina, Zolegel, Kuric]) may increase blood levels of eszopiclone and its sedative effects.
PREGNANCY: Use of eszopiclone during pregnancy has not been adequately evaluated.
NURSING MOTHERS: It is not known whether eszopiclone is excreted in human breast milk. Because many medicines are excreted in breast milk and because the effect of eszopiclone on infants has not been studied, women should not breast feed while taking eszopiclone.

mmm... a weight gain ray that can make you gain weight any place you want it too sounds ingenious this sounds like a good idea for a wg comic! and are you the one who made up the weight gain ray?
Well my idea was for her to be hit with it by accident.
i was talking about the ray when i was reading her dialog when she said i need more weight in the rear and then do the boobs to balance it out i thought the ray was able to make you gain weight anywhere you want it to and i thought it was genius and that it makes it a good idea for a wg comic. do you understand what i'm saying?

There in the middle of my backyard, all the grass had been dug up in one place and was sitting in a pile. Damn! Everything was looking so lovely and green. From what I've read, I'm guessing this was the work of one or more raccoons looking for grubs… how do I stop future destruction?

Based on the questionable previous reviews we went. Apparently only one site is used for non-seasonal campers. There is no sign save for 18x24" hand written corrugated plastic cards sticking in the ground near the road. The office was the second clue about the deteriorated nature of the campground. The site was littered but OK. The electricity was four 15amp plugs (no 30 amp). Only two worked giving only 104 to 105 volts with the A/C on. This caused an automatic safety cutoff. Checking the next site I found no power at all. Power was being brought in by ordinary orange extension cords from the next site. Same across the way. Voltages measured around 108/109 no-load and 105 to 102v with load. Looking around it was clear that the manager had long-term problems with camp electricity. He could not offer a site with 120 volts and refunded our $30. - BbTrombone
Jul 2009 - $30.00
We loved this park. Most sites are fairly level and all are shaded. Our site was directly on the Suncook River. The owners and maintenance staff as well as the seasonal campers were genuinely friendly without being intrusive. The park is quiet, peaceful, relaxing and the surroundings are lovely. If you have fond memories of how camping used to be, then this park may bring those memories back to life. The facilities are well maintained for a park of this vintage. Some of the picnic tables were well-used, but the campsites were clean, the fire pits were raked and the small beach was clean. The location is a good base for exploring the surrounding area. We will definitely visit again. - leorah

In this session, we'll look at the techniques used to validate data in Datacap Taskmaster Capture and then address all the target systems Taskmaster connects with to hand off indexed document images and data for use by the enterprise, including IBM Content Manager (CM8).
While everyone knows that optical character recognition (OCR) is the engine that powers capture, most don't know that OCR alone is not enough. Datacap Taskmaster Capture adds a full complement of automated validations to raise the accuracy of recognition results.
In this session, we'll open up Taskmaster's Actions Library and look at the many types of solutions available for assuring the accuracy of OCR. We'll also see how Taskmaster passes images and data seamlessly to IBM ECM systems, IBM FileNet Content Manager (P8), IBM Content Manager (CM8), and IBM FileNet Image Services. We'll also examine Taskmaster Connectivity to other ECM systems, like Microsoft SharePoint, as well as ERP systems, adjudication systems, databases and web systems.

Boat explodes, 4 suffer burns
CHARLOTTE Four people suffered burns after a vintage wooden boat exploded in flames at Point Bay Marina in Charlotte.
Four adults were treated at a hospital for burns and possible fractures.
Charlotte Volunteer Fire and Rescue Battalion Chief Dick St. George says all eight occupants of the boat, including two children, suffered burns but not all needed to be taken to the hospital.
The explosion happened Sunday afternoon after the boat refueled. St. George says the boat didnt start right away and a fuel vapor explosion was ignited during attempts to restart it.
No other boats were affected by the explosion. St. George says the 1946 Chris Craft boat is a total loss.MORE IN This Just InWESTMINSTER Vermont State Police say a passenger has died in an off-road vehicle crash in...

Hi All,
I would like to run a Periodic AC analysis (PAC) at frequencies around a carrier not known a priori.
That is, I have an oscillator whose frequency - of course - is to be determined by simulation. The natural way of simulating an autonomous system and get this information is with the Periodic Steady State (PSS) engine. Around the frequency point found by PSS, I would then like to run a periodic small signal analysis.
Is there a way to specify that from ADE L? I mean some 'special syntax' to use in the PAC in order to signal the simulator that he should use the outcome of the PSS, which in turn is dealing with an autonomous system (i.e. oscillator)?
I couldn't find it rapidly, but maybe somebody can give me a hint?
As a plan B, I was thinking in the direction of ADE XL, where you have a device called "pre-simulation script" which maybe could be used to first assess the oscillation frequency and then pass this info to the next, PAC, simulation as a parameter.
I have never even read about this topic so it would be helpful if anybody knowledgeable would direct me :)
That's exactly what PAC does already. If you run PSS with "oscillator" enabled (i.e. for an autonomous circuit), then the PAC will run on the results of the PSS simulation. If you want to do the frequency sweep relative to the fundamental that is found, you tell the PAC to run "relative" rather than "absolute", and then specify the relative harmonic number (typically 1). The frequencies you then specify in the sweep are relative to the multiple of the fundamental (so 1k to 1M would be Fosc*N+1k to Fosc*N+1M where N is the relative harmonic number).
There is discussion on this (for pxf at least) in an appNote in the <MMSIMinstDir>/tools/spectre/examples/SpectreRF_workshop directory, PSRR_Osc_AN.pdf (which is for using pxf to look at power supply rejection for an oscillator).
So you couldn't find any special setting for this, because there isn't a way for PAC not to do this! Even relative sweep mode is chosen automatically for oscillators... (I think).
In reply to Andrew Beckett:
I should probably go home and have some rest :)
I was choosing a 'guess' in the PSS which was so close to the actual frequency, that I could not spot the difference and I thought it was using 'my guess' instead of the proper one. Then, the fact that when using relative you specify your frequencies around that, so zero is a perfectly fine value, totally escaped me.
Thank you very much for this speed-of-light reply, it really made my week-end ;)

Let me first say that I am a beginner. However, I've been doing my homework and through research and trial/error, I have figured out how to edit and modify text fonts, size and color using the theme editor ("page php). HOWEVER, ,I cannot figure out how to change the colors of my nav bars, slider bar, slider arrows and etc. I have discovered that these items are actually png images. So, how do I modify these png images to suit my tastes? Can I do it through style php, or style css or another page OR do I have to modify the png images some other way?
I have researched the forum and found another user of this same theme whom claimed to be a novice and, after visiting her site, I see she was able to make these changes. If she's a novice as well, then I'm hoping this is relatively simple. Please help! My URL is http://www.digplantco.com (it's a work in progress!).

An interesting study would be an in-depth examination of all the questions Jesus asked people as He moved around in the marketplace. One of the most intriguing is what He asked the blind man in Luke 18:41, "What do you want Me to do for you?"
Great question, Jesus! By the way, He's asking it of you this morning… What do you want Him to do? What do you want from Him this morning? What is your request of Him as you launch into a new work week?
Today's real challenge, however, is for you to ask it of your supervisor, associates and/or employees. Workplace Christians worth their salt are in touch like Jesus with the people in their (workplace) environment. And rather than assuming what others need, we must ask. It occurred to me recently that we often think we know God's will until we ask Him; then sometimes we discover a whole new world. Likewise, at times we assume we know what our co-workers need. It may be, however, that we will really have to ask them before we can help them. I dare you! It will be a revolutionary question for some of you as you will discover needs that are serious, deep and in desperate of attention today. Will you ask it? Jesus did. He really cared about this (blind) man he met on the outskirts of the marketplace. His concern is exemplary.
First, ask of God. Seek His blessing as you embark on a new week at work. Don't start without it and receive it by praying. Then, as you intersect with your employer and your associates and employees one at a time, ask them what they need this morning and how you can help. When you ask, be sure to take time to listen, then engage yourself in a ministry posture to assist and serve. You're going to have fun with this today and every day if you take it seriously. Make today count!
