text: Redskyy Josh Staniels Manchester NH Joshua Staniels, known to others as Redskyy has been Djing since he was 13. Starting off with a Numark Battlepack, Two turntables and a mixer, he fell in love with creating vocal and progressive trance music. Once sober, Redskyy stopped Djing and played for the New Hampshire band Honest Eye, where he scratched and screamed for them. Through Honest Eye he was able to play alongside bands such as Papa Roach,Sevendust, Ten Years, and Evans Blue. This style of music influenced Redskyy to not only start Djing again, but to play a more heavy, evil, dark, metal infused Dubstep. Redskyy currently shares his musical talent with Joyrex Productions, Symmetric Records, CandyFlipT Productions, and Elemental Productions. In August of 2011, Redskyy launched his own site, 603DJS, in hopes of offering a community for DJ's to freely share their own music and broadcast live venues for those unable to attend. He enjoys performing locally and was proud to perform at the Maine Electronic Music Festival (M.E.M.F.) this past year. Redskyy has recently played in Symmetry and Control, and several other big Venues. Working with old band mates and friends Redskyy's style is unique and unlike anything anyone has ever heard before. The Rock and metal influences have set him apart from the others. He has a released a few of his own tracks, and a few remixes. Remixes include Goyte-Somebody I used to know (Redskyy's Remix) Which takes such a mellow song and in his words "Puts some balls to it". Redskyy's also Released two new CD's in the summer of 2012. Dreamstate, which is something unique and mellow, but still has that evil element to it. Destruction, well the name says it all. Both are Available on Soundcloud and soon to be out on CD. Keep your Eyes and Ears Open for Redskyy and his Unique sound. It won't be long before he's known by millions.

The Government has rights in this invention pursuant to Contract No. F08635-84-C-0202 awarded by the Department of the Air Force.
The present invention relates to a novel construction for a ring laser angular rate sensor and more particularly to a construction employing novel low scattering mirrors in such sensors.
Ring laser angular rate sensors are well known and are particularly described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,373,650, issued to Killpatrick, and U.S. Pat. No. 3,390,606, issued to Podgorski, both of which are assigned to the assignee of the present invention. The above-referred to patents are incorporated herein by reference thereto. Ring laser angular rate sensors of the type referred to utilize a block of material that is substantially stable, both thermally and mechanically. The block usually includes a plurality of interconnected gas containing tunnels or passages which form a closed-loop path in the shape of a triangle, a rectangle, or any polygonal path. At each intersection of a pair of interconnected tunnels is a mirror mounted on the block. This arrangement of mirrors and interconnected tunnels forms an optical closed-loop path. Further, at least one anode and one cathode are each mounted on the block and in communication with the gas. Each of the components, including the mirrors, anode, and cathode, must be sealed to the block to form a gas tight seal. The block is usually filled with a lasing gas such as a mixture of helium and neon. A sufficiently large electrical potential is applied between the anode and cathode to cause a discharge current therebetween which results in the production of a pair of counter-propagating laser beams within the block.
Associated with ring laser angular rate sensors is a source of error usually referred to as "lock-in." The source of error is predominantly caused by back scattering of light at each of the mirrors which form in part the optical closed-loop path which the counter-propagating laser beams traverse. As is well understood by those skilled in the art, there are two widely used techniques applied together to minimize the lock-in error. The first technique consists of dithering the block a taught in U.S. Pat. No. 3,373,650. Mechanically dithering the laser block reduces the source of error caused by lock-in to acceptable levels such that ring laser angular rate sensors became commercially successful. The second technique consists of producing mirror assemblies structured so as to provide highly polished substrates having superior reflective coatings which achieve minimal laser beam scattering at the surfaces thereof. Development of the mirror assemblies over the years has made it possible for the development of high performance ring laser angular rate sensors.
Prior art mirror assemblies comprise a block of material suitably polished for a mirror substrate. The mirror substrate usually is the same material as the laser block material so that they have matched thermal coefficients of expansion. The mirror assembly further comprises alternating layers of titanium dioxide (TiO2) and silicon dioxide (SiO2) deposited on the mirror substrate by a variety of deposition techniques including, among others, e-beam deposition and ion-beam sputtering.
The mirror assemblies of the prior art are fixed to the laser block by what is referred to as an optical contact. This requires that the block and the mirror substrate be highly polished so as to form an optical contact when the mirror substrate is pressed against the block. The joining of the laser block and the mirror block is accomplished at room temperatures.
These prior art ring laser angular rate sensors have proven highly satisfactory in operation and are rapidly gaining wide-spread acceptance for certain applications. These prior art ring laser angular rate sensors, however, are costly to manufacture due, primarily, to the high cost of polishing the laser blocks and mirror substrates.
An object of this invention is a provision of a novel construction for a ring laser angular rate sensor which permits it to be inexpensively manufactured.
Briefly, this invention contemplates the provision of a ring laser angular rate sensor constructed from a solid block with mirror assemblies joined to the block with a thermally formed gas tight seal. The mirror includes a coating of alternating layers of zirconium dioxide and silicon dioxide which have been ion-beam sputtered on mirror substrates composed of a material which suitably matches the thermal coefficient of the laser block.
FIG. 1 is a planned view of a ring laser angular rate sensor constructed in accordance with the teaching of this invention.
FIG. 2 is a partial sectional view showing detail of a mirror sealed to the laser block.
Referring now to FIG. 1, there is disclosed a pictorial representation of a gas filled ring laser angular rate sensor 10 comprising a block 11 made of a borosilicate, preferrably BK-7 glass (letter number combinations are Schott Optical Commercial Designations). A plurality of three interconnected tunnels 13, 15, and 17 are bored within block 11 at angles to each other to form a triangular-shaped cavity. Mirror assemblies 19, 21, and 22 are mounted on block 11 at the intersection of each of the tunnels 13, 15, and 17, respectively, in a manner as will subsequently be described. Each mirror functions to reflect light from one tunnel into the next thereby forming a closed-loop optical path.
A pair of anodes 27 and 29 are mounted on block 11 and adapted to communicate with laser tunnels 13 and 17, respectively, through interconnecting cavities 23 and 25, respectively. A quantity of lasing gas for plasma is adapted to be contained within the tunnels 13, 15, and 17, and other tunnels in communication therewith. The gas may be inserted into the block cavities through one of the anode cavities used as a fill tunnel and one of the anodes which may also serve as a sealable port, e.g. anode 29.
A cathode 40 is mounted on block 11 and in communication with the optical closed-loop cavity through interconnecting cavity 43. Cathode 40 is symmetrically located relative to anodes 27 and 29, and tunnels 13, 15, and 17. These symetrical location of the pair of anodes and cathode is intended to reduce gas flow effects which can adversely affect the performance of the rate sensor, as is well known.
In operation, with a sufficiently large potential applied between the cathode and the anodes, a first discharge current is emitted from cathode 40 out into tunnel 15 toward mirror 19 and through tunnel 13 to anode 27. A second discharge current flows through cathode 40 out into tunnel 15 toward mirror 21 and through tunnel 17 to anode 29. These two discharge currents are usually controlled in intensity. The discharge current's function is to ionize the lasing gas and thereby provide a pair of counter-propagating laser beams within the closed-loop optical cavity in a well known manner. It will be appreciated that ring laser angular rate sensors with a rectangular lasing path or other optical cavity configurations, including a cubic cavity, can be constructed in accordance with the teaching of this invention.
Each of the aforementioned mirrors perform functions in addition to redirecting the laser beams about the cavity. Mirror 19 may be constructed as to be partially transmissive for providing a readout beam signal to be directed toward a photosensitive means 50. Mirror 22 is preferrably curved so as to aid in the alignment and focusing or the counter-propagating laser beams within the cavity. Lastly, mirror 21 may be in part a transducer for cavity path length control in a well known manner. A suitable readout device 50 is disclosed in a co-pending patent application entitled, "Readout for Ring Laser Angular Rate Sensors", by Killpatrick, having Ser. No. 733,297.
The construction of the ring laser angular rate sensor described above and its performance are in accordance with the basic operating principles of prior art ring laser angular rate sensors. Referring now to FIG. 2, an important contributor to reducing the construction costs in accordance with the teaching of this invention is the use of a frit seal to join each of the mirror assemblies 19, 21, and 22 to the block 10 containing the interconnecting tunnels. The frit seal is chosen in place of optical contacts generally used in the prior art ring laser angular rate sensors since the use of frit seals, generically referred to as a thermal seal, eliminates the need for creating a highly polished surface on block 11 joining the mirror assemblies to a block by optical contact. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the ring laser angular rate sensor block 11 is a solid block of BK-7 glass to which the interconnecting tunnels are machined therethrough. A substrate 222 for each mirror assembly is also formed from BK-7 glass. An optical coating 224 of alternating layers of zirconium dioxide and silicon dioxide is deposited on surface 225 of substrate 222 by the ion-beam deposition process. A suitable ion-beam process is that substantially shown and described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,142,958, entitled, "Methods for Fabricating Multi-Layer Optical Films" issued to Wei et al, and is hereby incorporated by reference herein by reference thereto.
In FIG. 2, the optical coating is shown as only a spot having sufficient area to reflect impinging laser beams thereon. The choice of material for laser block 11 and mirror substrate 222 is dictated by the need to have compatible coefficients of expansion for the laser block 11 and mirror substrate 222. With compatible coefficients of expansion, a thermally formed frit seal process can be used to join the mirror substrate 222 to block 11. As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, the frit seal is formed with a solderable glass or frit material 226 in a process in which temperatures are raised to be in the range of 450� to 500� C. for a substantial period of time. This elevated temperature imposes dramatically the need for each of the parts to have a compatible temperature coefficient of expansion.
The ion-beam sputtered deposition of the alternating layers of the zirconium dioxide/silicon dioxide optical coating provides such a coating which can tolerate the high temperatures required in implementing the frit seal joining of the mirror substrate to the laser block. To frit seal a mirror substrate to a laser block in accordance with FIG. 2, it is necessary to achieve temperatures generally in excess of 450� C.
The optical coating of alternating layers of zirconium dioxide and silicon dioxide on the mirror substrates deposited by ion-beam sputtering, in accordance with the invention with reference to FIG. 2, exhibit the necessary high optical quality, high plasma stability, and high temperature stability in excess of the 450� C. temperature to permit fabrication of the sensor via sealing the mirror substrate to the laser block. Prior art techniques and materials do not have the characteristics demanded in ring laser angular rate sensor applications when materials ar subjected to the high temperature thermal sealing process. Specifically, prior art e-beam deposition techniques of titanium dioxide do not degrade with the frit seal annealing temperatures, but are unstable in the plasma of the ring laser and degrade rapidly such that the ring laser fails. Optical coatings of ion beam sputtered titanium dioxide/silicon dioxide on a mirror substrate have an increase in crystallinity when such substrates are thermally sealed to a block. The increase of crystallinity causes the mirrors to degrade such that the optical scatter increases resulting in poor performance of the sensor.
These ion beam titanium dioxide/silicon dioxide mirrors are amorphous and exhibit no crystallinity in the as-deposited state. At temperatures in excess of 250� C., however, the titanium dioxide based mirrors crystallize into a predominantly anatase structural phase of titanium dioxide with sufficient large grains to degrade optical scatter.
In contrast to ion beam deposited TiO2 /SiO2 mirrors, ZrO2 /SiO2 mirrors have a crystallinity in the as-deposited state which varies in grain size with deposition temperature but which does not change with subsequent annealing up to 600� C. temperatures. ZrO2 /SiO2 mirror coatings have been ion-beam deposited at ambiant ion beam process temperatures (in the range of 150� C.) exhibiting a grain size sufficiently small as to not affect optical scatter at 633 nm. More importantly, as the mirrors are subsequently annealed in preparation for the fritting process, the grain size does not increase. Hence the low scatter properties of ion beam sputtered ZrO2 /SiO2 mirrors are preserved up to the temperatures necessary for fritting of the mirrors onto the gyro block. Additionally, the stability of these ion beam ZrO2 /SiO2 deposited mirror coatings also makes them free from optical degradation in the gyro plasma.
The use of mirror assemblies having an optical coating of alternating layers of zirconium dioxide/silicon dioxide deposited by the ion-beam sputtering process do not degrade with annealing temperature and have excellent laser mirror properties. Therefore, the mirrors constructed with the aforesaid optical coating may be thermally sealed to the laser block to provide a low cost ring laser angular rate sensor.

Proverb A Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Accidents will happen. Actions speak louder than words. Advice is cheap. Advice is least heeded when most needed. Advisers run no risks. All cats are grey in the dark. All good things come to those who wait. All that glitters is not gold. All days are short to Industry and long to Idleness. All is fair in love and war All's well that ends well All that glitters is not gold. All things grow with time - except grief. All things are difficult before they are easy. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. An apple a day keeps the doctor away.*
Explanation / Meaning When you are away from someone you love, you love them even m ore. Some unfortunate events m ust be accepted as inevitable. What a person actually does is more important that what they say they will do. It doesn't cost anything to offer advice. When a problem is serious, people often do not follow the advice given. It's easier to give advice than to act. People are undistinguished until they have m ade a name. Patience brings rew ards. Appearances can be deceptive. Time goes by slowly when you have nothing to do. Things that are done in love or war can often be excused. There is a solution to everything even though there are doubts. What look good on the outside may not be so in reality. As time goes by, grief subsides little by little. With practice things becom e easier. Everybody needs a certain amount of relaxation. It is not good to w ork all the time. Eating an apple every day can help to keep you healthy. Other interpretation : A sm all preventive treatment w ards off serious problems.

It's better to avoid disputes with stupid people. It's better to deal w ith som ebody difficult but fam iliar, than change and risk dealing w ith somebody worse. It's better to do som ething, even if it's late, than not do it at all. It's better to stop and accept a small loss, rather than continue and risk losing everything. It's better to be too careful than to be careless and regret it later. Be careful not to destroy the source of your income or welfare.

GOTHENBURG, Sweden, Sept 4 Geely-owned carmaker Volvo Cars posted an operating loss for the first half of the year but said it may reach break-even in the full year amid a pick-up in activity in a Chinese market it hopes will underpin an expansion to record sales in coming years.
The operating loss at Volvo, wholly owned by China's Zhejiang Geely Holding Group Co. was 577 million Swedish crowns ($87.20 million, down from a 349 million profit in the same period last year.
The Sweden-based company, bought from Ford Motor Co. amid a crisis for the auto industry in 2010, reported on Wednesday sales of 56.4 billion crowns in the January through June period, down from 65.4 billion a year earlier.

Hello - we are planning a relatively last minute trip to Costa Rica leaving on April 19th for 8 days. The hotel we are considering is the Rui Palace - the Westin is sold out and the Four Seasons is beyond our budget, Would appreciate any feedback from folks who've stayed at the Palace. Also wondering about excursions - we will do a canopy tour and cloud forest tour. Beach/pool will be nice but not for the entire time. Does renting a car for a day make sense? What other activities are good for an active, late 50's couple? Thanks!

There are problems and challenges. But we are on course to overcome them
Democratic governments welcome criticism, because it helps to know what the people are thinking when they are not thinking well of you. Constructive criticism is particularly welcome, since it encourages the self-correction that is at the heart of all positive reform. But the recent diatribes in this space against the performance of the UPA government, particularly from two regular writers I know and respect, Pratap Bhanu Mehta ('While we were silent', July 11, http://bit.ly/174IPzt) and Shekhar Gupta ('The deformists', July 20, http://bit.ly/1aZZ9au), have not only not been constructive, they are so sweepingly denunciatory, they leave no possibility of discussion or redemption.
Read more on this debate:
While we were silent: Pratab Bhanu Mehta
Imagining a silence, missing the point: Pawan Khera
A people in despair, a government in wonderland: Madhu Trehan
Mehta would have us believe that nine years of UPA rule have decimated the country's roads, airlines, telecom and power sectors, undermined education and employment, destroyed agriculture and industry, wrecked institutions, ruined financial stability and spurred inflation, and burdened the country with regulation. In a spasm of extravagant phrase-making, he also sees the government as threatening virtue, freedom and the citizenry, no less. To this over-the-top indictment, Gupta adds his own: the UPA's "welfarism" has betrayed the promise of reform and created a doctrine of "povertarianism", which condemns Indians to perpetual poverty.
Now these are such travesties of reasoned debate that it might seem almost unnecessary to take them on except that both Mehta and Gupta have justifiably earned, over the years, admiration for their views, and their lapsing from their usual standards should not be allowed to go unchallenged. They have apparently failed to notice that today's India boasts a thriving, entrepreneurial and globalised economy, with a dynamic and creative business culture, engaging with the world on its own terms and pulling over 10 million people a year above the poverty line.

But unlike some folks, he has a pretty good claim. In the mid-1990s, Leighton, an MIT professor, and Danny Lewin, a graduate student, used applied mathematics and algorithms to solve a looming problem: traffic jams on the 'Net. The plan involved a network of distributed computers—it was the massing of the Internet's earliest cloud.

Sales grew right through the dot-com crash and then the credit crisis. Fast-forward to 2014 and Akamai Technologies (AKAM)—still based in Cambridge, Mass.—runs the world's largest cloud, with 137,000 servers in 87 countries. The computers sit on the "edge" of the Internet, close to end users, directing digital traffic and storing content. Up to 30% of all Internet traffic passes through Akamai's network, which basically keeps the Web running on time.
"They're kind of the WD-40 of the Internet," says Rob Nicoski, a portfolio manager at Minneapolis-based Disciplined Growth Investors and a longtime holder of Akamai stock. As higher quality video streams chew up bandwidth and security threats mount, the Web will require even more of Akamai's grease.
Rob Sanderson, an Internet analyst at MKM Partners, recently named Akamai a top pick for 2014. The stock lagged the broad market in 2013 and got trounced by highflying Internet names like Netflix nflx 4.782683093771389% Netflix Inc.

Sanderson sees Akamai shares at $60 in a year, 25% above a recent close of $48.
He argues that multiple trends are going Akamai's way, including a wave of high-resolution photos shared on social-media sites, cloud-based videogames, and more Web video driven by advertiser demand.
Every big media and e-commerce company already relies on Akamai's cloud, better known as its content-delivery network. Walt Disney's dis -0.45179176506828217% Walt Disney Co.

To understand the opportunity, it helps to think about the disappearance of physical disks and local computer storage. As more applications reside in the cloud and more files are moved via the Internet, Akamai gets additional business. Apple, for instance, now pushes operating-system updates to iPhones and iPads via the Internet. The most recent version, iOS 7, weighed in at about one gigabyte, roughly the equivalent of 300 MP3 music files. The software update was downloaded 200 million times in the first five days after its September release.
Bears have long argued that content delivery is a commoditized business, claiming that anyone can move bits from point A to point B. But Akamai has repeatedly surprised critics. "They continue to figure out new ways to leverage their network and offer new solutions," Nicoski says.
THE NEXT BIG OPPORTUNITY is selling security services to the information-technology world. Because Akamai sees so much of the Web's traffic it gets to know patterns. That gives the company a better chance at recognizing what's called distributed denial of service, or DDoS, attacks. They're an increasingly common tool used by hackers, even state-sponsored groups, to take down Websites by flooding servers with fake requests.
Unlike most cyber-security offerings, Akamai's computers sit outside corporate firewalls, meaning they can stop the attacks before they ever reach corporate networks. In December the company agreed to pay $370 million for Prolexic Technologies, which specializes in detecting DDoS attacks.
Sanderson, at MKM, says that the IT universe is 350,000 companies strong. Akamai's current customer count is a mere 5,000. The company has been quickly expanding its sales force to narrow the gap.
Analysts expect Akamai sales to grow 14% this year, to $1.78 billion, with earnings up 8%, to $391 million, or $2.15 a share. Its profit is likely to pick up in 2015 and beyond, with growth in the midteens. An uptick in corporate security spending could send estimates even higher.
The Bottom Line
Up to 30% of the world's Internet traffic flows through Akamai's servers, providing a growing revenue stream. Shares could grow with it, to $62 from a recent $48.
Compared with the broad market, Akamai shares don't look cheap. They fetch 22.5 times 2014 earnings estimates. (The price-to-earnings multiple falls to 21 after accounting for $566 million in net cash on Akamai's balance sheet.) But Internet companies generally trade at premium valuations. And Akamai is the rare company that automatically grows with the Internet and comes with the safety of recurring revenue and strong profit margins. Over the past 10 years, investors have paid an average of 25 times forward earnings for the business. A similar multiple, a year from now, would put Akamai shares at $62.
Leighton, who was the chief scientist at Akamai for most of its public history before taking the CEO role a year ago, clearly sees opportunity in the stock. In December, with shares near $45, he added another $1.1 million to his stake. He now owns 2.1% of the stock, worth $186 million. His buys have proved timely in the past.
Leighton was unavailable to speak with Barron's because of the company's pending fourth-quarter earnings announcement, which is scheduled for Wednesday. Akamai's reports can generate big swings in the stock, as traders obsess over its quarterly figures. Patient investors can profit from that kind of myopic thinking. Ask Tom Leighton—the Internet wasn't built in just one quarter.

Q: I would like to be able to play random selections from a playlist. I have categorized my music into playlists and they are quite large, but I can only seem to get the iPod to play the playlist in order (or I can move to a different track manually). Am I missing something easy?
- Ian
A: The solution is to turn on the "Shuffle" feature on the iPod. This may be in different places depending upon the model of iPod that you are using. On the traditional iPod models, the Shuffle option can be found under the Settings menu, and can be set to Off, Albums, or Songs. The newer 2007 iPod classic and iPod nano (video) also provide the ability to toggle the shuffle option on and off from the "Now Playing" screen—simply press the center "Select" button several times until you see the shuffle options appear, and then use the click wheel to select the appropriate one.
On the iPod touch (and iPhone), the shuffle option is set when playing back a set of tracks simply by tapping on the "Now Playing" screen and tapping the shuffle icon that appears at the top-right, beside the progress indicator.

iGo Products Turn Off Electronics
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Household, Misc. Tech, PC / Laptop, Peripherals
The iGo Laptop Charger knows when your laptop is fully charged and then automatically shuts it down. The company's Surge Protector also has an auto shut-off and can handle up to 8 devices/peripherals, etc. IGo also has a travel adapter, multi-card reader and a wall outlet that will not only save you energy, but make you feel less guilty.
