Official URL: http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/122608393/abstract
This article investigates the use of time-of-flight (ToF) cameras in mapping tasks for autonomous mobile robots, in particular in simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) tasks. Although ToF cameras are in principle an attractive type of sensor for three-dimensional (3D) mapping owing to their high rate of frames of 3D data, two features make them difficult as mapping sensors, namely, their restricted field of view and influences on the quality of range measurements by high dynamics in object reflectivity; in addition, currently available models suffer from poor data quality in a number of aspects. The paper first summarizes calibration and filtering approaches for improving the accuracy, precision, and robustness of ToF cameras independent of their intended usage. Then, several ego motion estimation approaches are applied or adapted, respectively, in order to provide a performance benchmark for registering ToF camera data. As a part of this, an extension to the iterative closest point algorithm has been developed that increases the robustness under restricted field of view and under larger displacements. Using an indoor environment, the paper provides results from SLAM experiments using these approaches in comparison. It turns out that the application of ToF cameras is feasible to SLAM tasks, although this type of sensor has a complex error characteristic

BALDWIN COUNTY, Alabama -- On Tuesday, red, white and blue could be seen at every street corner from Pleasure Island to rural Baldwin County as residents prepared for Independence Day.
In Elberta, Main and State streets were decked out in patriotic colors with American flags lining the streets over locally owned shops. In downtown Foley, a huge American flag whipped in the wind over Laurel and McKenzie streets. Gulf Shores Public Beach was awash in Old Glory as the city readied for the fireworks display, come rain or shine, at 9 p.m. Thursday. Along the Alabama-Florida state line, the Flora-Bama Lounge and Package was ready for its annual Miss Firecracker Bikini Contest as American flags were draped along the building.

UPDATE: I saw The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey in 48 frames-per-second 3D. I felt that this format deserved its own article. Check it out here.
BENJAMIN ZAUGG: Right at the beginning of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, there is a wonderful scene depicting Thrór, the Dwarf King of Erebor, surrounded by mountains of gold, going completely mad with greed and power. As I watched the rest of the film I would frequently find myself recalling that scene and substituting that Dwarf King with Peter Jackson.
At a little over 300 pages long, the original paperback of The Hobbit is a rather and short straightforward tale. Originally, Peter Jackson was going to tackle it in two films, adding some backstory/sidestory elements to fill out two separate features. This was a bit of a surprise, but given Jackson's relatively strong track record I was cautiously optimistic. When I heard that he was splitting the 300-page tale into three films I began to worry.
Going in with these grave concerns I came out at the end neither disappointed nor overly pleased with what I saw. There is no doubt that the movie was a combination of two dark forces: Warner Brother Studios milking three films out of what could easily have been one or two, and Peter Jackson given unlimited power to explore every nook and cranny of his cherished middle-earth. What makes Jackson different to say, George Lucas, is that he is actually an extremely good filmmaker. So while this first installment is overloaded with tacked-on story elements it holds together far better than it has any right to.
If you go into this expecting a faithful film adaptation of the first third of The Hobbit you will probably be disappointed. However, if you want to experience a richly detailed backstory to Lord of The Rings where part of The Hobbit is the main plot line, then this may be your cup of tea. Perhaps because I went in knowing it would be more of the latter I enjoyed myself most of the time.
The problem with expanding the story beyond the original book seems to be that much of its spirit seems to have been lost in the process. Part of what made the book so charming was its very linear Bilbo-centric storyline and Tolkien's excellent pacing – which was so different from LOTR. With all the backstory and 'side-quests' stuffed into this installment there is an added weight that slows down the narrative and it also feels like the story is more about the fellowship than about Bilbo Baggins. This is a particular shame because I felt that Martin Freeman's Bilbo was the best thing about the film and I would have enjoyed a film more focused on that character's journey.
It is only the extra story elements that slow things down, not the key ones. The arrival of the dwarves and the unveiling of their plan at the hobbit hole, while a scene or two too long, was very well done. The meeting of Gollum and Bilbo is above and beyond what I ever expected, and the appearance of the Goblin King (Barry Humphries) was excellent.
Whole swathes of story could be cut from around the main plot points and the film would only have benefited. Instead, Jackson seemed to be pulling out every bell and whistle to keep the add-ons interesting. I lost count of how many scenes occurred on or just near an overhanging cliff (there's a new drinking game), and by the end of the film I'd almost forgotten what normal daylight looked like, because every scene seemed to take place at either sunrise or sunset. The editing seemed to be working overtime to keep things dynamic. Just when I thought they exhausted every camera angle a new one would appear.
Despite being a Frankenstein's monster of plot and despite being something other than the original tale of The Hobbit, the stunning visuals and extraordinary cast made this film an enjoyable watch. I have no doubt that once all three films are finally released on Blu-ray, someone somewhere will rip and edit them all into a single three-hour epic with no extraneous plot. That film will be incredible. In the meantime, I'm going to treat each of these installments like the extended extended edition releases that they seem to be.

By FRED CONTRADA
NORTHAMPTON - A woman who was impaled on a chain-link fence after being thrown out of her second-floor window told a judge Tuesday that her life will never be the same because of her assailant, Victor Manuel Rios.
"For a year, I pretty much lost control of my mind," Pamela A. Bardsley told Judge Mary-Lou Rup. "For a full year I sat in my room, and I couldn't open my shade. I was given a life sentence."
Bardsley, 44, made her remarks in Hampshire Superior Court at Rios' sentencing for assault and battery with a dangerous weapon resulting in serious bodily injury and other charges. In pleading guilty to the charges last month, Rios admitted that he choked Bardsley, held a knife to her throat, cut her hair and threw her out of the window of her 96 Pleasant St. apartment on Jan. 20, 2008, after the two of them got into an argument.
Bardsley landed on the metal twists of a chain-link fence below the window, nearly losing an eye. She told Rup that she has suffered from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and a bipolar condition since the incident.
"I feel like I've been a prisoner since that has happened," she said.
Prosecutor Michael A. Cahillane asked Rup to impose a prison sentence, noting that Rios, 30, has a long criminal record that includes convictions for armed robbery and selling cocaine. Defense lawyer Mark Tanner pleaded for a lesser sentence at the Hampshire County House of Correction, where his client could receive treatment for his drug problems.
Saying that the severity of the crime warranted prison time, Rup sentenced Rios to 6-8 years and an additional five years probation. Rios also pleaded guilty to two counts of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, assault and battery, malicious destruction of property under $250 and possession of cocaine. Rup ordered him to stay away from Bardsley during his probation, complete a program for batterers and undergo mental health counseling.

SOUTH HADLEY - Former Holyoke mayor Michael J. Sullivan was selected Tuesday night as South Hadley's new town administrator.
The vote by the five member selectboard was unanimous, 5-0.
"I am very honored and flattered," Sullivan said, when reached by a reporter by phone at home.
"The unanimous vote means we will have a great working relationship," he said.
Selectmen praised both candidates.
The other candidate was Ronald San Angelo, a former mayor of Naugatauck, Conn., who Sullivan called an accomplished public servant.
Sullivan is currently in the third year of a three-year contract as Maynard's town administrator.

Awesome!!! You Girls are Cooking!!! Deanne I Love the Colors!!!
thanks Kimmyann, one of my favourite colours.... plums and rich burgundy reds!!! I think colours can affect your mood don't you? I always feel good, calm and happy when I work with dusky pinks, plum, rich deep cherry reds and burgundy...
and I find other colours make me feel agitated. e.g. If colours clash I hate it!
They reckon yellow makes you feel hungry which is why a lot of food take away places have dominant yellow theme --- do NOT paint your kitchen yellow LOL ( you'll eat more)
anyway, thanks again - and have a colourful day!!
I agree!! Greems, burgandy, tans, and browns make me feel comfortable my colors!!!
When I bought the new place the kitchen was sunshine yellow!!!! its been repainted Tusk - creamy white
Great LO's girls.
Nobody has posted ( except you wonderful design team girls) so the free download was not won by anyone!!! Oh well I'm feeling very unloved
Maybe next time YOU could have a free kit if you just post!
Wow!!! I just knew someone would Jump in for this Gorgeous kit!!! Better Luck next time!!!

BENTON HARBOR, MI – A Benton Harbor woman is dead after hitting her head on a sidewalk while trying to break up a fight involving her son, police said.
Patricia Nichols was shoved off a porch by 21-year-old Jamyran Roberson and landed head-first on a concrete walkway while attempting to break up a fight between Roberson and her 23-year-old son Donte Nichols, the Benton Harbor Department of Public Safety said in a news release.
Officers found Patricia Nichols unresponsive with no pulse upon arriving at 802 E. Vineyard Ave., at about 11:27 p.m. Tuesday. Nichols, whose age was not released, was pronounced dead at the scene. An autopsy was scheduled for Wednesday, the news release said.
Roberson was arrested without incident and was being held at the Berrien County Jail on charges of involuntary manslaughter and domestic violence by strangulation, according to police.
Donte Nichols and Roberson "have been involved in a long-term romantic relationship," the news release said.
What began as an argument between the two men over "the custodial supervision of a mutual juvenile cousin" erupted into a physical fight, with Roberson attacking and choking Donte Nichols, police said.
"During Jamyran's assault on Donte, Patricia Nichols attempted to intervene and break up (the) attack while Jamyran's was choking her son," the release said. "The incident spilled from inside the home (to) the front porch. As Patricia was attempting to separate the subjects, Jamyran forcefully shoved her causing her to fall from the porch head first onto the concrete walkway."

Here was my first meal of the day today (eaten starting @ 12, just now finished!). I'm still trying to wrap my head around the amount of food/carbs/protein that should be eaten, so please any feedback is appreciated.
14 oz round steak (782 cals)
1.5 cups Mashed potatoes, homemade (261 cals)
6 oz grape tomatoes
1 banana
1 apple
Total cals = 1315, 130 g carbs, 165 g protein. From there I taper carbs for the rest of the day. I will throw in some rice, but that's about it.

When I received an invitation to the Medina City Schools Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony coming up on April 26, I was amazed at how many of the people being inducted had crossed my path during the years we have lived in Medina. Because I was a Medina High School English Teacher for 18 years, I met many of the recipients while I was teaching. Here's my take on the chosen few.
Let me begin with the 2011 inductees: Carol Lenk is my close friend with whom I regularly play tennis, golf, bridge, and mah jongg. More importantly, she was the head of the English Department during most of my teaching years and always set an excellent example of how to work hard and challenge students to do the same. Our daughters count her among their best-ever teachers and Sarah earned more than one scholarship based on Carol's terrific recommendations.
Jessica Miller was a student in my freshman English class. Besides being an excellent student and a fun addition to the class, Jessica presented one of the most memorable demonstration speeches ever when she showed the class how to pitch a softball. I was so intimidated by the speed of her pitches that I forgot to critique the speech (she got an A). Dr. John Surso has been our family doctor for more than 30 years and has always been compassionate and attentive. He recruited my husband to help organize the Medina Health Ministry and the two of them have worked together on that project for twelve years.
Among the 2012 inductees, Bill Doraty is also a former student. I remember him entertaining his classmates and always staying just barely inside the limits of acceptable classroom behavior. I really like Bill though, and we always share a hug when we meet. I didn't know Ben Hallock, but taught his wife Kim. She was one of those special students whom teachers remember well. I'm proud of her in her new job as principal of Northrup Elementary, and know Ben must have been special to attract her.
Beth Schaefer Winquist was a student of mine, also. She amazed me by being quiet and sweet in the classroom, but hitting the tennis ball incredibly hard. Her work ethic was apparent in both venues, and I enjoyed cheering for her during her tennis matches. Virginia Jeandrevin and Tom Ebner were both members of the school board while I was teaching. They were very supportive of teachers and tried their best to run a top-notch school system. I see Virginia regularly at social occasions, usually fund raisers for some of the many charitable causes the Jeandrevins generously support. Joyce Ebner was my friend and a wonderful school supporter. Three of the Ebner children were among my all-time favorite students.
I realize that I had nothing to do with choosing these outstanding citizens, but I'm proud to say I know them and for what it's worth, I fully support their choice as members of the Medina High School Hall of Fame.

Islanders fuel Mount Baker crew team
By Matt Phelps
The Mount Baker crew team had 32 kids from Mercer Island this year -- an estimated one-third of the entire team. Although Islanders usually make up one-half of the team, this year it was more quality than quantity from Mercer Island.
Seven Islander boys finished the season by helping to push two boats to the 11th annual U.S. Rowing National Youth Invitational in Cincinatti, Ohio, on Saturday and Sunday.
``I think we had more guys that were committed to doing what it takes, and with more guys like that, it pushed us to a higher level,'' said Mount Baker crew coach Dan Shapiro. ``We had a lot of top-level guys on our team this year.''
The program's open-weight eight boat qualified for nationals, a feat not achieved for the boat since 1993.
``We had a little bit less from the Island than usual,'' said Mercer Island High School senior Jesse Johnson. ``But this year we had more depth and good competition in the program. We were committed to work hard and we had no weak links.''
The open-weight eight boat was favored to place in the top three at nationals but had a tough run during the final race and had to settle for fourth place overall. The shell began the regatta strong on Saturday morning, rowing the second fastest heat time of the morning, despite easing up near the end of the race. As a result, the boat qualified for one of the two semifinal races on Sunday morning.
``This is just a really prestigious race and there are faster times,'' said Islander James Olson. ``There was a little more pressure, but we were just excited to race.''
The open-weight boat won handily during the Sunday morning semifinal, posting the second fastest time. The boat was now qualified for the six-boat final race. Mount Baker was given the No. 2 seed position in the center of the race course for the grand final.
A 10 mile an hour headwind came up on Sunday afternoon, slowing times some 20 or more seconds from the morning races. Mount Baker suffered from the winds, finishing behind St. Ignatius College Prep, San Francisco; Cincinnati Junior Rowing Club and Marin Rowing Association (California.)
The Mount Baker open-weight eight was stroked by Johnson. Other Mercer Island rowers were Dane Robbins, six seat; Amit Levy, five seat; and Olson, three seat.
Johnson and Levy, both seniors at Mercer Island High School, will attend the University of Washington in the fall. Robbins and Olson will compete for Mount Baker next year during their senior years at Mercer Island High School. Olson has been elected captain of the Mount Baker Junior Men's Varsity for the 2005-2006 season.
Mount Baker's light-weight eight shell made it to the finals at nationals, as well. The boat had to fight to make the finals and finished sixth overall with a time of 6:39.36.
``It is a cool race because you get to race against people you have never raced against,'' said Levin.
The light-weight eight was coached by the team's assistant coach Chris O'Brien.
``He has done an excellent job with just three (returnees),'' said Shapiro.
The light-weight eight shell finished third in its first race on Saturday morning behind the eventual gold and silver medal crews and had to row in a repecharge, or second chance, race in the afternoon. The crew was successful in its repecharge, finishing second. The boat qualified for the finals during the National Championship on Sunday.
The light-weight eight finished sixth in the final six-boat field, a great result for a boat rowed by a freshman, four sophomores, a junior and only two seniors.
Mercer Island's Jonathan Kissler rowed in the six seat, David Boman in the four seat and Levin in the bow or number one seat. Kissler and Levin are seniors at Mercer Island High School, and Boman is a sophomore.
``The season really went well for us,'' said Levin. ``I was upset that we couldn't take the four boat. But this is a great way to end my senior year of high school.''
The four boat was a favorite during regionals but the qualifying race could not be run thanks to bad weather.
The Mount Baker boys varsity included 14 boys from Mercer Island: Garret Bernal, Boman, Johnson, Patrick Kilgallon, Kissler, Levin, Levy, Olson, Robbins, Sarah Spranger, A.J. Temple, Benjamin Urman, Matt Wald and Derrick Wang.
Novice boys from Mercer Island included: Erik Buckmiller, Eugene Kwon, Alex Myerson and David Schneider.
The Mount Baker girls team went through a rebuilding year under team captain and Mercer Island High School senior Dana Brandt.
``I think that they had some unfinished business but they also have a strong base from Mercer Island,'' said Shapiro.
Mount Baker girls varsity rowers from the Island include: Brandt, Courtney Backman, Mona Barber, Tracey Breese, Allison Chappell, Casey Collins, Ishani Grover, Kelsey Jensen, Kadi O'Brien and Meg Roberts. Novice girls rowers from the Island include Ellie Barber, Susie Chalker, Claire George and Lauren Head.

Don't let it get away!
Keep track of the stocks that matter to you.
Help yourself with the Fool's FREE and easy new watchlist service today.
What companies are tomorrow's big winners? In our ongoing series, I'm chatting with Fool analysts and advisors to discover the stocks they're watching and the catalysts that would signal it's time to buy.
Today, Motley Fool Pro and Motley Fool Options advisor Jeff Fischer shares three companies that are on his watchlist and that he'd strongly consider buying if the market cooperates. (For your convenience, you can now create your own version at MyWatchlist.com, your free customized hub to follow the performance and Fool coverage of the companies you care about.)
The real-money portfolio service Motley Fool Pro has the flexibility to use options and to go either long or short, so Jeff's watchlist there is rather lengthy -- instead of just listing companies Pro may buy, Jeff and team also track companies they might potentially short.
One in that latter group is salesforce.com (NYSE: CRM ) , the cloud software company that saw its stock soar 80% in 2010. While Jeff admires the business and the innovative software salesforce.com is selling to businesses on a subscription basis, the stock simply appears to be expensive at 240 times trailing earnings and 87 times estimated earnings for the year ending January 2012. If the market gives back some ground, salesforce could easily decline 20%, making it a successful short.
On the long side, Jeff is keeping an eye on Cameco (NYSE: CCJ ) , the world's largest uranium producer. Pro owned shares from $16 until nearly $30, before selling because of valuation. Uranium prices rocketed at the end of 2010, sending Cameco well above Pro's estimated fair value. If the stock returned to the mid-$20s, Jeff and his team would be interested again in buying shares or using options on it. Given the volatility of commodities, by keeping Cameco on a watchlist, it may just be a matter of time before an opportunity arises.
Over at Motley Fool Options, which relies on six Motley Fool newsletters for its stock targets, Jeff has his eye on Best Buy (NYSE: BBY ) , an earlier position that has fallen from grace after flubbing holiday sales in November. The stock is inexpensive enough in the low-$30s that it deserves a second look and consideration despite management's recent gaffes. Best Buy remains highly profitable and the volatile business has been known to have hit-and-miss quarters in the past, making for a volatile stock. Buying after the "misses" may reward patient investors.
And that's why it pays to watch. You can make smarter investing decisions with your own version of My Watchlist, new and free from the Fool. Click below to start following one of the stocks mentioned above:

I have two fellow-mom-friends with babies born last March (so that makes them not quite a year old). Both have babies that are not interested in nursing. They say they have to "fight" them to get them to nurse. One mom has already weaned her baby. She says he (the baby) doesn't care and likes formula better.
On the other hand, my 13-month-olds nurse 10 times a day (including at least one night feeding) and would be devastated if they couldn't nurse. (So would I!)
So, my question for y'all: What contributes to this early weaning (i.e., before 1 year)? Why do these babies have no interest in nursing?
A couple of my thoughts:
- My limited observation has been that these moms have not made nursing readily available during the first year, i.e. it's been on their timeline, not baby's. They try to "hold the baby off".
- Both these moms have used "Cry It Out" at night and not nursed/comforted their babies during night wakings. (I think that both the babies still have occasional "CIO" nights.)
What do you guys think?

James Watt, 1736-1819. Engineer, inventor of the steam engine About 1815
On Display PORTRAIT GALLERY
- Scottish Art
James Watt achieved lasting fame as an engineer and scientist with his improvement of Newcomen's steam engine. After years of experimentation, in 1775 he entered into a partnership with businessman Matthew Boulton to produce the improved engine. Their success led to the opening of a purpose-built steam engine factory in 1796, after which Watt gradually withdrew from active participation. By 1814, when he commissioned his bust from Chantrey, Watt was a national – if reluctant – celebrity. Following its exhibition in 1815 at the Royal Academy, the bust was frequently reproduced in full-scale marble and plaster replicas, miniature copies in ivory for the mass market and commemorative medals, which is why this particular depiction of Watt is so well known.

I was about to write, "this dress REALLY makes Lucy Hale look short," and then I realized that Lucy Hale IS really short:
Not, as they say, that there's anything wrong with that. I MYSELF am short and yet I swam about my home in a maxi-dress I got at Target, watching copious daytime television like the lady of the manor. But this whole thing leaves me cold.

Kevin Nolan is delighted to have the opportunity to make it a decade of being captain for Sam Allardyce after the West Ham United manager signed a new contract with the Club.
Nolan began his career playing for Big Sam at Bolton Wanderers and after the pair were reunited at the Boleyn Ground two years ago, the West Ham No4 has become an intrinsic part of the Hammers' progress under Allardyce. The possibility of now working under his long-standing mentor for several more years fills Nolan with obvious excitement and after recently scoring his 100th career goal against Wigan Athletic, he is targeting further milestones during that period.
"I'm delighted that he's signed," Nolan said. "He has deserved it and it puts everything to bed. It's about him now going away and drawing up what he wants for next season. If you want this club to move forward I don't think there is a better man to have at the helm.
"I've worked under him at Bolton and I know what he's about. Not just on the pitch but behind the scenes. It's fantastic news for him and his family and fantastic news for us lads. I just hope that we can get a few new faces that will help us kick on again next season.
"I've just enjoyed working with him and I have a great working relationship with him. I've been his skipper for more than eight years in total and I've just got that relationship where he gives me all the responsibility in the dressing room.
"I'm just delighted to be able to work with him in the next few years that he's here. I'm delighted that I'm going to be able to work under him and keep this club moving forward because I certainly believe we've got the right personnel and a core squad to add to in the summer."
Nolan's first step is to make sure that West Ham achieve the formidable feat of finishing in the top ten following their return to the Barclays Premier League last summer. To guarantee that, the Hammers will need to overcome already-relegated Reading in the season finale at the Boleyn Ground on Sunday; a day that has been designated 'Show Your Colours Day' by the Club.
"Although finishing in the top ten is an added incentive to beat Reading, it's all about ourselves and we've all been like that this year. We are tenth which is good and the ball is in our court which we always wanted. We've been indifferent away from home this season and our main points have come from home so we're expecting a win.
"Finishing in the top ten would be a massive achievement and you've got to look at it as a whole spectrum and we've been brilliant this year. Over the season we've been good enough to be in that top ten. We've been very unlucky at home and have only lost to four sides - Liverpool, Everton, Tottenham and Arsenal.
"It's been a great season at home for us but we've got to continue it on Sunday. We were favourites at the beginning of the season to go down after getting promoted by the Play-Offs but we've done the job that we knew we could do and got into a position that we thought we should be at the end of the season and that's in the top ten."
If a victory against the Royals can indeed be secured, then 'Nobby' believes it will provide a great selling point to potential new arrivals that Big Sam and the Board target over the summer months. With the unwavering financial support of Joint-Chairmen David Sullivan and David Gold to assist that search, Nolan is predicting bright times at the Boleyn Ground next season.
"I think we're good enough to be in the top ten and good enough to persuade the Chairmen, who have been fantastic, that we're good enough to push for it again next season. It's short steps though and top ten would be a very good finish for us this year and it's what we'll be aiming for again next year so we've got to make sure we bring in the players that will help us achieve that."
The full squad were back in first thing on Monday morning as they sought to right the wrongs of Sunday's defeat at Everton. Nolan believes that although the result was disappointing, a win against the Royals will leave everyone with a sweet taste in their mouth as they head off for their summer breaks.
"It was disappointing to lose to Everton to be honest. It was probably one of our worst performances in the last eight to ten weeks. Sometimes you get those days and we've got to pick ourselves us and look forward to Reading and make sure we get three points at home.
"We might have got caught up in the emotion of everything that had gone on with Everton and it was just one of those things. We weren't good enough and they deserved to win. We did have some chances but their keeper pulled off some great saves.
"Jussi has pulled off some great saves for us and on another day we could have been going in at 1-1 but it wasn't to be and we were very disappointed."

My dream lingered for a decade, collecting cobwebs in a frustrated corner of my mind. Perhaps you know the complications that get in the way of big journeys, that ineffable stew of time, money, family, and career that can drown your dreams in distractions. Even an opportunity to meet and edit Harrer (Lost Lhasa: Heinrich Harrer's Tibet) didn't spring me loose. Harrer told me he'd wanted to go to the Himalaya ever since he was a boy; that he climbed the Eiger mostly to attract attention so he'd be invited on a Himalayan expedition. In the introduction to Seven Years, Harrer famously wrote that "all our dreams begin in youth." Some of mine seemed to end there, too. At least that's what I sometimes thought as I buried myself in work, moving through various new jobs and new houses, nurturing a dusty vision of Tibet between the many assignments and renovations.
Another decade passed before my fax machine bleeped and began inching out a mysterious topographic map. Congested lines squiggled deeply everywhere, but a close look showed that these lines meant more than most: the contours were at 1,000-foot intervals, a measure reserved for tall mountains in regions surveyed only by satellite. Three clusters of peaks were circled with a fat marking pen. The phone rang.
"Did you get the map? See the circles? Those peaks are all 21,000 and 22,000 feet. No one's ever climbed there, no climber's even heard of this place." It was Mark Jenkins, my longtime climbing partner and a veteran of nearly a dozen extended explorations in Tibet. In previous years, he'd lured me away from my desk for a wilderness first ascent in British Columbia, big mountains in Switzerland, fast hikes in the Grand Canyon. His timing was impeccable again. No, I couldn't spare the time for a month away. No, I couldn't afford the money. No, my family life wasn't improved by the stress of making it all happen. But those virgin peaks were too much for an aging climber to resist. I was now 15 years older than my father had been when he died, and I still hadn't achieved-even attempted-my Himalayan ambitions. Often I reflected on one of Harrer's favorite maxims, one he'd repeated to me as we crafted his book: "Have a plan and stick to it." I'd had the plan long enough. Now was the time to make it stick.

The day's four shows were sell-outs, a testament to careful planning that started two years ago, as Staten Island's Girl Scout leaders strategized about how best to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the now-worldwide organization that Juliette "Daisy" Gordon Low, a socialite from Savannah, Ga., founded in 1912.
Annadale resident Christine Battaglia – a member of the board of directors of the Girl Scout Council of Greater New York – organized the event and hosted each show, providing a rich narrative as the models displayed Girl Scout uniforms, starting with the stylish, khaki-colored leader outfit that dates back to 1919.
"It's an honor and a privilege to wear this!" said Eltingville resident Danielle Weisberg, noting that she is a fourth-generation Girl Scout. The 1919 uniform – a Norfolk jacket suit – featured a maxi-skirt, with two classy front-buttoned pockets and the original Girl-Scout emblazoned buttons, and a long jacket with buttoned pockets cinched with a fabric belt.
Courtesy of Great Kills resident Janet Buell, 77, who responded to a feature story in the Advance seeking uniforms to borrow for the fashion show, two girls modeled historic uniforms that she had tucked away in a box in her basement.
One of them, dating back to pre-World War II years, was a used uniform that Mrs. Buell obtained as a grammar-school student in Ellenville, N.Y., where she was born and raised.
"I went to the Dutch Reformed Church there," she recalled. "The church had a troop, and I just fell into it."
The mother of three children, and grandmother to seven, Mrs. Buell moved to Staten Island in 1963, settling first in Dongan Hills and then Great Kills in 1969. She involved herself again with the Girl Scouts when her oldest daughter, Sharon, was a Brownie. She became a leader of the troop headquartered in Moravian Church in New Dorp, and continued as a leader for nine years, as daughters Jennifer and Wendy followed in their older sister's footsteps.
Mrs. Buell's old intermediate-level uniform – with an orange tie around the neck, a forest-green beret, and matching socks – was modeled by Richmond resident Julia Wanamaker, 11, a sixth-grader at Totten Intermediate School, who joined the Girl Scouts as a Brownie and is now a Cadet.
"They ran out of zippers, and had to use buttons," Julia said, explaining the design of the uniform. She pointed out various patches that Mrs. Buell had earned, including ones for sewing, child care, and cooking; another patch – a white dogwood – was the designated flower of Mrs. Buell's troop.
Lighthouse Hill resident Jolie Bozza, 11, wore the 1970s uniform that belonged to Mrs. Buell's daughter, Sharon. The sixth-grader at Barnes Intermediate School sported a dark green jumper, with a white blouse emblazoned with yellow Girl Scout symbols. Jolie started in Girl Scouts as a Daisy, in kindergarten, and is now a Cadet.
"We learn a lot," she said. "We go to camp upstate, and learn boating, how to make fires, and everything that's nature-oriented."
Westerleigh resident Emily Wetzler, 9, sported a Brownie uniform of 1940s vintage. A junior in Troop 5030, she has been a Girl Scout since first grade. "I like having fun in our meetings, and helping out and going on trips," she said, mentioning one memorable night of "sleeping under the blue whale" at the Museum of Natural History in Manhattan.
Isabelle Guastella, 9, from Castleton Corners, was decked out in a Brownie uniform from the 1970s. The fourth-grader at PS 29 – whose favorite subjects are writing and art – is a junior in Troop 30, and her mother, Jennifer, is troop leader.
"I joined in first grade," she said. "I like the cookie-selling, and the patches – there are so many cool things that you can earn – and I like doing service for others, like the homeless and the sick."
One of the show's charms was young girls who wore uniforms that belonged to their mothers.
Arianna St. John, 12, of Westerleigh, wore her mom Georgette's junior uniform from the 1970s: A jumper with bell-bottomed pants, blouse, a red tie, sash with sewn-on patches for cooking, needlepoint and camping, and the obligatory beret. She is a seventh-grade student at Markham Intermediate School, and joined the Scouts as a Daisy, when she was 6-years-old. "I definitely want to go on to the Ambassador level," she said on Saturday.
Girl Scouts of the USA now boasts a membership of over 3.2 million girls and adults, and "over 50 million women in the U.S. today are Girl Scout alumnae," according to the organization.
"It's so great for our young girls to see this history, through the years," said Laurie Wetzler, also of Westerleigh, whose daughters Emily and Katarina were models.
"This was just wonderful!" enthused Great Kills resident and troop leader Beth Lewandowski at the end of Saturday's 2 p.m. show.
Her daughter, Bridget, 19, now a sophomore majoring in occupational therapy at the State University at Stonybrook, L.I., agreed. "I was a Girl Scout for 10 years, and never knew about this history, and the outfits from the past. I loved the show!"

FLINT, MI -- A Web site that reviews all things Michigan is steering readers down Davison Road to Angelo's Famous Coney Island, calling the old east side eatery "the real deal" for Flint-style coneys.
Made in Michigan says in a Jan. 28 report that Angelo's original location has "somehow survived the ups and many downs of beleaguered Flint" and successfully maintained the city's hot dog traditions.
"A good meal at Angelo's includes two coney dogs, fries smothered in gravy, a milkshake, and a 'homemade' pie," the review says. "And despite the clear artery-clogging properties hard at work, it all goes down incredibly easy."
The report warns those looking for linen tablecloths to look elsewhere but says Angelo's "is definitely a book you shouldn't judge by its cover."
Angelo's opened its Davison Road restaurant in 1949. It was rated as having among Michigan's 10-best coneys in MLive.com's 2012 "Coney Dog Project."

Three of seven Metro councilors today are set to oppose a proposed Interstate 5 bridge over the Columbia River, a potentially significant blow to a federally backed $4.2 billion effort to untangle congestion in one of the West Coast's worst bottlenecks.
The resolution calls for charging tolls on the current bridge between Portland and Vancouver, generating money to earthquake-proof the structure, make on-ramps safer and boost mass transit. The tolls would discourage use of the bridge at rush hour, relieving some congestion. Then in a few years, officials would consider a new bridge with additional lanes for cars and trucks.

Parents trying to bring body of Sarai Sierra back to Staten Island
Ms. Sierra's earrings, rings and watch were not disturbed when police found her body on Saturday, Turkey's Andolu Agency reported. But her iPhone and iPad -- the tools she used to share her photos with the world -- were apparently stolen.
The 33-year-old Silver Lake woman disappeared during a solo vacation in January. A mother of two children, 9 and 11, she photographed her journey and corresponded with scores of followers on the photo-sharing website Instagram.
Police have interrogated about 22 people regarding her murder, the Turkish news agency reported. Investigators are also reviewing her email account.
Ms. Sierra's tearful family told the media Monday of their devastation and their efforts to bring her body home.
Ms. Sierra's sister was unable to attend the news conference because "she's just too broken, -- all she does is cry," the women's mother, Betzaida Jimene, said. "They were very close."
Staten Island Rep. Michael Grimm has been helping the family navigate their dealings with the Turkish government, including their effort to coordinate funeral plans.
An autopsy was completed Monday; officials say she was killed by a blow to the head. Her body was taken to the Church of Three Altars in Istanbul's Beyoglu district by her husband, Steven, and brother, David Jimenez.

Due to a flood of recent rainouts, the St. Edmond softball team will be much busier than usual this week.
Following a rare turn of events, the sixth-ranked (Class 2A) Gaels (22-4 overall, 11-0 NCC) will hit the road to face three North Central Conference opponents at three different sites throughout the day on Tuesday.
League-leading St. Edmond is scheduled to visit Iowa Falls-Alden (18-5, 11-3), Clarion-Goldfield (0-15, 0-12) and Humboldt (17-8, 9-5). Start times are set for 10 a.m., 1:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., respectively.
"It's not ideal obviously, but it was basically our only shot to get things in," St. Edmond head coach Paul Hunt said. "We were originally going to play at noon in Iowa Falls, but I was told they couldn't come up with umpires. Clarion already had umpires, so we scheduled them for noon.
"Iowa Falls then came back and said they found umpires. We moved things around after that to make sure everything works."
Saturday's scheduled game at Bishop Garrigan (13-11, 9-5) was also postponed due to inclement weather conditions. No makeup date has been announced.
"I'm kind of curious to see what will happen now with the Garrigan game," said Hunt. "We have to find a way to get that one in, too.
"Maybe we can play two on Monday. We'd prefer not to have any games the week of tournaments."
The Gaels are slated to host Clear Lake (3-19, 2-11) Monday and Webster City (14-13, 10-3) Wednesday, while wrapping up their regular season at Hampton-Dumont (9-9, 5-8) on Thursday.
St. Edmond will host the winner of either South Central Calhoun (3-14) or Panorama (5-13) in a 2A, Region 7 quarterfinal to begin postseason action on July 9.
