The D, like other sorts of FF's responds only on the active edge of the clock signal. See SR Flip-Flop. Unlike other sorts, however, the D has no rest state. On every clock cycle the FF must be either set or reset. This makes it ideal for storing the state of a state machine (since it changes on every clock pulse).
Multiple D FF's can be arranged in a bank to form a register, and thus are an important building block in many other components.

Also D-Flip-Flop.
Standard 1/2 of a 4013 chip (S) Set | | _______|_______ | | Truth Table D | | Q -------------_----------- ----| |---- D CL Q Q S RST | | ------------------------- | | 1 ^ 1 0 0 0 | | 0 ^ 0 1 0 0 | | X X 1 0 1 0 | | _ X X 0 1 0 1 CL | | Q ------------------------- ----| |---- X = Does not matter. | | ^ = Signal transition |_______________| low-to-high. | 1 = High (voltage) | 0 = Low (ground) | Q = Normal output Reset D = Data In (RST) CL= Clock signal S = Force set condition (Q high) RST = Force reset condition (Q low)
A high signal on SET will cause the flip-flop to set Q high. A signal on RST will cause the flip-flop to set Q low. These two signals override anything currently on the flip-flop, and it does not matter what is happening on the CL or D lines.
The signal comes in on D. A different signal coming in on the Clock (CL) line will tell the chip to take the signal on the D line and place it on the Q (output) line. Some circuits need to take the opposite of the signal coming in on the D line, so the flip-flop also has an output that works opposite of the normal Q. It is called the NOT-Q, and shown with a bar over the Q; see the truth table and diagram for an example.
D flip-flops are much like ice cream, they come in many different flavors. And regardless of the flavor you have, it's still a D flip-flop.
We are going to look at a simply D flip-flop first. The other flavors just build off the basic one.
\Enable | _______|_______ Truth Table | | ---------------------- D | | Q D CLK Q \ENABLE ----| |---- ---------------------- | | H ^ H L | | L ^ L L | | X L Q L | 74LS374 | X X L H CLK | | ---------------------- ----| | X = Don't care | | ^ = LOW to HIGH transition |_______________| H - HIGH (voltage) L = LOW (ground) Q = Output, CLK = Clock
Three inputs and one output. Can it get any easier? Well, one input and no outputs but I don't know what the heck that would be.
Here's how it works. Q is going to output whatever value is on D right as the clock goes high. If the clock signal is already high when D changes the output does not change. Only when the clock signal is rising is there a change. This is what is referred to as a postive edge triggered D flip-flop.
And the truth table says all this and more, just not in so many words. It should also be pointed out that when the CLK is low, Q stays Q. Meaning, it keeps whatever value it has when CLK went from low to high.
But we have neglected the \ENABLE signal so far. When the \ENABLE signal is LOW, the D flip-flop works just as we described above. But when the \ENABLE signal goes high, Q will always be low, regardless of whatever D and CLK are doing.
May you have noticed how the \ENABLE signal works in the opposite way that one might expect. It would seem more intuitive for the D flip-flop to be enabled when it gets a HIGH signal instead of LOW. However this is not the case since the \ENABLE signal uses negative logic. (Normally you would draw a line over ENABLE, but here we will use a \ to depict negative logic.)
Think of it this way, when \ENABLE is HIGH the negative of it would be LOW. And if \ENABLE is LOW, the negative of that is HIGH. So a LOW on the \ENABLE signal really means a HIGH in a roundabout sortof way and the chip gets enabled.
There are other flavors of D flip-flops you can use, like those mentioned above. Some have SET and RESET signals. Others don't use a clock signal to set the value of Q but just a normal signal. (That truth table is subtly different.) Many have two outputs, Q and \Q. Where the \Q is always the opposite Q. (Remember that bit about negative logic?) But when it comes down to it, it's all just a way to take an input signal and hold it the output for a certain amount of time.
What can you do with D flip-flops? I thought you'd never ask. They can be used in shift registers, binary counters, frequency dividers, FIFOs and anything thing else you want to cook up.

TMAPI is a programming interface for accessing and manipulating data held in a topic map. The TMAPI specification defines a set of core interfaces which must be implemented by a compliant application, as well as a set of additional interfaces which may be implemented by a compliant application or which may be built upon the core interfaces. The goal is to define a common programming interface for all topic map processors, enabling portable code and a shorter learning curve for developers moving between topic map processers.

Call it protection—perhaps from the cold, or from fading into predictability—but when the weather turns cool, fashion designers tend to create collections with a bit more edge. Which is why toughening up your wardrobe is definitely on-trend this season. Although leather is everywhere for fall (and a look we'll be covering in-depth next month), it doesn't function equally across the board. Take the leather legging, a key piece on several runways. We found that coated or waxed denim (a process that can sustain the fabric's vibrancy against fading) looks just as cool and eliminates the need for constant care—plus it lacks the wallet pain of real skin. Wear this denim style as a perfect transitional item, day or night, but pair appropriately: Try a boxy knit or colored blouse and tailored jacket for day, or a graphic T-shirt and biker jacket for an evening out. Here, our top options around town:
The Eve High Rise Coated Skinny Jean by Habitual really does have the look of leather—a perfect choice when you're feeling all rockstar glam. In Licorice (pictured, left), $242-$263, the Blues Jean Bar, 2800 E. Second Ave., Unit 109, 720-542-3756, thebluesjeanbar.com
A glossy finish and faux front pockets gives DL1961's Emma legging jean a sleek fit. Try the Diamond shade (pictured, above) and mix with black for a fashion-forward color combo. In Diamond (midnight blue) or Wick (black), $168 each, Dragonfly, 3615 W. 32nd Ave., 303-433-6331, facebook.com/DragonflyApparel
Disco the day and night away in MOTHER's The Looker skinny jean (pictured, right) with its iridescent sheen. In Black Glimmer, $210, the Garment District, 2595 S. Colorado Blvd., 303-757-3371, garmentdistrictcolorado.com; and Max, 264 Detroit St., 303-321-4949, maxclothing.com
Another faux-front-pocket style, Genetic Denim's Shane is seamed in all the right places to make a woman's curves look super sexy. In Galaxy, $220, Moxie, 5936 S. Holly St., Greenwood Village, 303-694-0773, moxieinstyle.com

Jonathan Hart, University of Alberta
Since the Romantics the criticism of Shakespeare's The Tempest has been allegorical. Perhaps taking their cue from Coleridge, who said that the appeal of the play was to the imagination, subsequent critics appealed to the fantastic and to aesthetic allegories. Schlegel identified Ariel with air and Caliban with earth; Campbell saw The Tempest as the Shakespeare's fare-well to his art; Lowell equated Caliban with brute understanding, Ariel with fancy and Prospero with imagination. When I was an undergraduate the Romantic reading of this play as the playwright's fare-well to his art was still going strong. But for some time another kind of allegory was going on, that is the political allegory. Once a minority position, the political allegory has, in the last decade, overtaken the aesthetic allegory. My task is to find a version of The Tempest that acknowledges the political and aesthetic...

"To the Chicago Abyss" is a short story by Ray Bradbury, originally published in The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction in 1963.
The story, like many of Bradbury's is short, around ten pages. It details the adventures of an unnamed old man, living in a hastily-sketched dystopia sometime in the early-21st century. The man is chased by the secret police for the crime of mentioning the type of consumer goods available in the 20th Century, but finds shelter with a couple who spirit him away to the titular Chicago Abyss, where he will continue to travel around the remnants of North America, bringing the remembrance of what consumer goods are like to the populace.
The most notable aspect of the story to me was that it seemed to resemble a scene in another famous science fiction novel, which after a few moments of thought, I placed as Fahrenheit 451, Bradbury's (perhaps regrettably) most famous work. In fact, the counterpoint is close, and almost parody. At the end of Fahrenheit 451, the escapees from the venal, literature hating future society walk along the railroad tracks, trying to piece together the Book of Ecclesiastes. In this short story, the hero goes out along the rails to bring the memory of Butterfinger bars in their bright yellow wrapper.
The exact point of the story is perhaps hard to tell, but in some ways I read it as almost a note of apology to the mass culture that he savaged in Fahrenheit 451. Or perhaps he just thought it made an interesting story. In any case, like any Bradbury story, it provides something for the reader to think about, in a vividly illustrated manner.

CLA Game Fair, Leicestershire England
If you didn't already hear about this, there is a sporting show of epic proportions going on at Belvoir Castle Grantham, Leicestershire England on July 22-24.
If you're looking for a true fantasy sporting weekend this might be pretty close to being that for most types who frequent these pages, except of course salmon fishing in the legendary rivers of the area perhaps. Why not combine the two? Of particular interest is the "Fishermans Village" which I have no doubt is as big as a real village. http://www.gamefair.co.uk/2005/mainPages.php?id=10 The Spey casting competition is most likely the largest in the world. For those who are lucky enough to attend, I envy you and look forward to the year (most likely 2006) when I can fulfill a dream by making this trip. See also Dr.Way Yin's post on Speypages for more info. Mr.Toft- is that your picture (casting) on the top of the fishermans village page?

Embarrassing fact: I like Ke$ha. Yes, I know. Ke$ha? With the dollar sign? Embarrassing, but believe it or not, I like her music. Obviously, some songs are better than others, but I really just like her work. After she performed on American Idol, I did some research into her, and got her CD. And, well, I enjoyed it. I have no idea if she can really sing or not, but as long as her voice sounds good on the album, I don't really care. I was pleasantly surprised to find her album Animal as quite feminist and woman-empowering.
Her first single "TiK ToK" and song "Party at a Rich Dude's House" are just about partying and letting yourself go. I appreciate that she fosters an image of not caring what anyone thinks and sends that message to girls who listen to her - forget what the media depicts as a good girl! Act the way you want! Be who you are! Rebel! (Reminds me of the Laurel Thatcher Ulrich book Well-Behaved Women Seldom Make History, and the Blu Greenberg quote "We have been nice girls long enough. We've made our cholent…we should take to the streets.")
I also really appreciate Ke$ha's singles "Blah Blah Blah" and "Take It Off" and song "Kiss N Tell." "Blah Blah Blah" is interesting because it refers to men as sex objects, the same way male performers often refer to women in their lyrics. "Kiss N Tell" also reverses the typical roles described in pop songs, with Ke$ha dumping her cheating boyfriend for "acting like a slut" and because she "can find someone way hotter / With a bigger…wow." The single "Take It Off" has Ke$ha singing "They turn me on / When they take it off," a concept usually not stated quite so baldly by female performers. These songs depict her as assertive and able to hold her own, traits that this generation's female teenagers would be well-advised to have. I also find the song "Boots and Boys" interesting, since it's about using men like boots, wearing them until you get tired of them. I don't know if I would label this as a feminist song on Animal, but it's nonetheless another way Ke$ha tries to talk about men the way that they've usually talked about women in songs.
Ke$ha has quite a few woman-empowering songs, and I really commend her for that, but I also commend her for keeping the album balanced. The songs "Hungover" and "Dancing with Tears in My Eyes" mourn relationships that didn't work out. "Blind" is about letting go of an ex, and "Animal" is conversely about a relationship on the verge of working out. "Dinosaur" has Ke$ha singing about a pervy older guy hitting on her. "Backstabber" admonishes mean girls who spread nasty rumors. (It reminds me of the JWA article about gossip, and the subsequent articles about gosip on the Sisterhood here and here.) The single "Your Love is My Drug" and song "Stephen" are about wanting a guy who doesn't necessarily want you. While "Stephen" could easily be dismissed as a painfully sexist why isn't he calling me??? OMG!!! song, I think it's a lot more than that. Ke$ha wants this Stephen guy to like her, and she's trying to get his attention by writing a whole song about him - not a terribly passive way to go about things, is it? (I don't know. I could be thinking about this too hard.)
As I stated above, I think I like this album because it has balance. There are some songs that are party songs, some with feminist leanings, and others that are just plain old I-need-a-guy-just-because songs. With a song like "Stephen" next to "Blah Blah Blah," it's an interesting contrast: "Why won't you call me? / Stephen / I'm feeling pathetic" "Just turn around boy let me hit that / Don't be a little b***h with your chitchat / Just show me where your d**k's at."
I also like the image that she tries to a foster, a party girl who doesn't care what people think of her, with messy hair and smudged make up. I think it just tells girls that they can be autonomous and look how they want, without the pressures of society weighing on them.
I dub Ke$ha an inductee to Shining Stars of Davida - strong women and men who make feminists proud.

"KESSINGLAND, a parish in the hundred of Mutford, county Suffolk, 5 miles S. of Lowestoft, its post town and railway station, and 8 N.E. of Beccles. The village, which is considerable, was formerly a market town and a place of some importance. The North Sea, which bounds the parish on the E., is making great encroachments on the land, and has swept away some portion of the village, and the old town walls are embedded in the sand. There is a coastguard station, also a signal-station on the beech. The soil is clayey. The tithes have been commuted for a rent-charge of £405. The living is a vicarage* in the diocese of Norwich, value £428, in the patronage of the bishop. The church, dedicated to St. Edmund, is an ancient structure, with lofty square tower containing five bells. In the interior is an octagonal font, on the aides of which are carved the figures of St. Edmund and others. The living was for some time held, by Whiston. The church, which formerly belonged to St. Clare's Nunnery, London, was rebuilt in 1694. The register commences in 1603. Near the church are remains of buildings called the Nunnery yard, but there is no record of any religious house. The charities produce about £70 per annum, a considerable portion of which was left for the repairs of the church. The Wesleyans have a chapel, and there is a parochial school. John Morse, Esq., is lord of the manor."

The "Ornamator" concept began in January 2012 as I was taking the ornaments off our Christmas tree. I noticed we had neglected to hang the really delicate, heavy and large ones... so it got me thinking? "Why not bridge branches?" Pliers and wire in hand, I was on a mission. I began making all sorts of shapes, in many sizes when, "Holy smokes!" one actually worked! I was now able to hang all my ornaments with ease and to my amazement make beautiful bows, ornament clusters and so much more.

Vaccines against HIV and AIDSJun 28, 1999 WHEN I TURNED ON THE CNN NEWS THE OTHER NIGHT I CAUGHT THE END OF A STORY ABOUT A NEW VACCINE THAT PREVENTS HIV IN AS MANY AS 50% OR MORE PEOPLE NOW IN TRIAL/TESTING. CAN YOU SHED SOME LIGHT ON THIS SUBJECT, OR AT LEAST CLUE ME IN ON WHAT IS GOING ON ON THIS FRONT. |
Response from Mr. SowadskyThank you for your question. Considering that every vaccine against HIV is currently in laboratory studies or in clinical trials, nobody can tell you how well an experimental vaccine works. We do not know how safe or effective any vaccine or treatment is, until clinical trials are completed in people. Any information you may read about these trials are strictly preliminary, and conclusions as to how effective they are in people are unknown at this time. For more information about experimental vaccines, visit the website of the AIDS Clinical Trials Information Service (ACTIS). The vaccine information page of this website contains information about experimental vaccines. You can also call ACTIS at 1-800-TRIALS-A (in the United States). If you have any further questions, please feel free to call the Centers for Disease Control at 1.800.232.4636 (Nationwide). | ||||||||||

Premier Sponsor:
This is the direct start of Gordon's Linkup. Do thin moves up the slab to the roof. Then start campusing off tweaky crimps. Originally rated 5.12c, holds must have broken to make this closer to 5.13a. This route is good, but clipping is very hard and dangerous. Blowing any clips before joining Gordon's Linkup would be extremely bad. If you are up to the challange get after this route because it rocks!

Audrey J. Murrell, Ph.D.
University of Pittsburgh, The Katz School
"Mentoring can serve as a great tool in gaining the business advantage especially when people interact from diverse backgrounds but only if the mentoring is done right. This excellent book teaches both the how and the why of mentoring. Belle Rose Ragins is America's leading academic expert on gender effects in mentoring, and David Clutterbuck, who consults to around the globe, is one of Britain's leading practitioners. Together they create the perfect trans-Atlantic marriage of theory and practice."
Faye Crosby, Professor of Psychology,University of California Santa Cruz, USA.
"This is a must-read book on diversified mentoring. It provides practical, real, cases of mentoring at two levels - the mentor-mentee pair and formal organizational programs in corporate, not-for-profit, and community sectors. Preceding the cases is the contemporary scholarly literature on mentoring and diversity, and following them is analysis drawing out the general principles to be learnt from programs that worked through to those that did not work. The organizational programs were at times designed specifically for diversified mentoring (e.g., race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender, disability, disadvantage, offending, mental illness, and other forms of diversity). In other cases, the programs were designed simply to be mentoring programs that then informed practice and theory on diversified mentoring or they were designed as diversity programs to allow full use of all people again that resulted in insights specifically on diversified mentoring. The book traverses the challenge of whether formal mentoring programs do work, using the insights of the top scholar on diversified mentoring (Ragins) and the insights of the top practitioner (Clutterbuck), and gives general principles on how to increase program effectiveness as well as how to actually design effective formal mentoring programs. Its excellence is shown by being applicable on both sides of the Atlantic and most types of diversity."
Phyllis Tharenou, Professor of Organizational Behaviour, Department of Management, Monash University, Australia.
"Reconciling cultural values is at the core of successful organizations. Effective mentoring processes are crucial in helping people going beyond just observing differences. Mentoring helps you to integrate opposing values in many ways. I would highly recommend this excellent book on mentoring in diverse workplace"
Fons Trompenaars
"David Clutterback and Belle Rose Ragins achieve the rare accomplishment of delivering a book that speaks substantively and empathetically to multiple audiences. For those who study mentoring, Clutterback and Ragins effectively summarize what we know from the research on mentoring and diversity and then forge new ground into dimensions of difference that have received little attention. For those who develop and implement mentoring initiatives in organizations, the authors compile an impressive overview of best practices and pragmatic advice from companies at the forefront of integrating mentoring and diversity. For those who are personally motivated to learn about mentoring as a powerful tool for their career development, the authors include case studies and personal reflections that invite readers to authentically engage how the insights offered may hold real meaning in their career journeys. The international perspective undergirding this work provides a unique opportunitythe chance to traverse gaps in our understanding of the cultural nuances of mentoring and to fully appreciate the complexity and paradoxes inherent in explicating the phenomenon of mentoring across dimensions of diversity."
Stacy Blake-Beard, Assistant Professor in Administration, Planning and Social Policy, Harvard University Graduate School of Education, and Ford Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow,
Center for Gender and Organizations, Simmons Graduate School of Management (2001-2002).

Make sure to check out the Hurt Street display on the library's second floor.
You can find additional resources in the library's display case and informational guide.
Voices from Hurt Street: The Beginning
During the previous academic year, a Kent State Stark student had to deal with a form of sexual harassment. In search of aid and direction concerning this situation, that student received the support of many in the theatre program, as well as other resources, on campus. Amidst the turmoil and tears, an idea was hatched to create a theatre piece that would deal with a myriad of types of abusive relationships. Thus, out of hurt could come understanding, expression and healing.
April 12, 13, 19 & 20 at 8 p.m.
April 14 & 21 (ASL interpreted) at 2:30 p.m.
Post-show talk backs with the members of the Voices from Hurt Street ensemble will be held after each performance in the Theatre.

The lazy days of summer are here and you're going on a family vacation. Make the travel fun while you sneak in some opportunities to learn!
Traveling by air? Have the kids learn about flight. From the Wright brother to the space shuttle it can be a fascinating subject for children. The internet or library can provide information, and you can even learn about the type of plane you'll be traveling on.
Get a map that shows your point of origination and destination. How many miles? How long will it take? What do you fly over? Kids absorb the math lesson as they figure out how many miles per hour they'll travel. Facts about the destination let children plan in advance what they'll want to do, and they can make an itinerary of interesting sites from materials collected.
Don't waste the hours in the car, or end up with bored and cranky kids! Get a guide book for your destination and have the children read it out loud as the miles roll by. There will be some lively discussions as you decide what to see and do when you arrive.
Use a map to mark off landmarks along your route. Give the kids the map and stickers - find the landmark, mark it off - bingo! The winner gets a small prize and bragging rights.
Sneak in some vocabulary lessons playing a synonym game. Give a word and see how many other words the kids can come up with that mean the same thing. Play a spelling game that teaches kids the difference between two words that sound the same - piece and peace, for example. The winner thinks of the most words.
Look for license plates, and try to spot one from every state. Make the game more interesting by finding the state slogans on the plate. Give them a goal to spot a specific slogan. Which state is "First in Flight" and what does it mean?
Have the kids keep a travel log as you go - miles traveled, sites seen, stops along the way. Writing about the experience keeps them engaged.
Stop occasionally to take pictures, and let the children learn to use the camera. Make a contest out of searching for interesting landscapes, landmarks and scenery. The child who comes up with the best idea gets to write a paragraph to caption the photo for the family album.
Before you go, get lots of information on your destination from the internet or Chamber of Commerce. Play a quiz game on facts about where you're headed. Travel exposes kids to different forms of transportation, language, food, art, architecture, religion and dress. What's it like where you'll be vacationing?
Travel is the best education for kids - their brains are constantly challenged with new sights and sounds, and they'll encounter things they've never seen before. Getting there is part of the fun, and the education.

Don't get much cuter than this...
When this client told me their color outfits, I was excited to get to use this background. I didn't like this background when I first got it, but it is now one of my favorites! Their little girl was so cooperative that I was able to use a bunch of props to give them a variety of poses to choose from. Only problem is they are having a hard time deciding which one they want as a large print! :) I've included most of them from their session for your viewing pleasure.

Gabby & Alyssia with the Twinkle Light Background
Gabby and her baby sister Alyssia were the first clients to use my new twinkle lights. This homemade concoction consists of 10 mini-lights strung from my background stand with some lacy material placed in front of it. At first Gabby wasn't too interested in taking portraits so we gave her a sucker and that seemed to help a bit. Gabby's personality really shows through in these portraits which is why there was so many cute ones that I couldn't help but include them all here for you to enjoy. :)

Watch some pretty lines with interactive pocket-art Thicket
Yesterday's news might have been a bit too iPhone-centric for normal, non-tech-dork human beings, but for those of us enthralled with shiny, touchable objects, it's a format and medium we've come to love. While the iPhone and iPad are often lauded as great media consumption devices they're rarely noted for their creation potential. Luckily, Thicket manages to cover both ends.
As the above video shows off, Thicket is a reactive music creation program. It's not the first (we've already seen Brian Eno's Bloom, Bubble Harp and a few other interactive music apps) but Thicket is a bit different.
Developed by Joshua Ott and Morgan Packard, the program features two amazing facets not found in the others. First off, it supports VGA-out, which means that it can be displayed on a larger screen (e.g. a projector at a show). Although it's not quite an instrument and not quite an album, it's still an interesting and pretty-to-watch example of audio art. It's multi-touch enabled, which means the rhythm changes depending on how many fingers are on the screen and this is all stored in a sequence so it repeats indefinitely. It also changes depending on how quickly you're moving your fingers.
While this particular example is obviously geared towards and created by electronic musicians with a penchant to experiment with interactive video, it's far more interesting than the millions of band apps the Apple devices have seen so far. There's already a fair share of actual instruments in the app store, but when it comes to interactive pocket art it's still a burgeoning scene. While we can't imagine ourselves rocking out on the stage with this quite yet, it's one of many great examples of the ways musicians are utilizing the precarious devices to create something new and interesting.

Since the advent of the personal computer, two things have consistently remained as part of the framework: the keyboard and the mouse as the main input devices.
While the keyboard is going to have to be around for a while longer, at least until voice recognition technology goes up a few more notches, people have consistently been coming up with ways to get rid of the old fashioned mouse. It has gone wireless and comes in many shapes and sizes but the single cursor, driven by a little two three or five button piece of plastic has been the core way of interfacing with the pc since the beginning. While modern touchscreen devices are nice, they are bit of a pain to use in real life for complex interfacing with a modern desktop because your hands just get in the way of what you need to see.
On one of my usual "Stumbles" across the net, I came across a link to a very interesting concept called 10GUI.
Put simply, it is an idea to create a new computer interface by mixing and matching an "Ipod" style multitouch interface with current mousepad technology. What the creator is proposing is to remove the multi-touch interface from the screen (Mousepad like) and place it below the keyboard but keeping it on a similar scale to the size of the screen. This will allow many more types of gestures using all ten fingers to zoom, open and close windows, switch between applications etc. Instead of the current single cursor point on the screen, you would have up to ten cursors, pinching to zoom in on a drawing for instance, spreading fingers to zoom out etc. The creator has also come up with proposals for a new "Desktop" and "File Manager" and also a proposal for dealing with mulitple open windows (I'm not too impressed with this though, a 3d interface similar to "Cooliris" would be better in my opinion, have a look a the video below to see)
It looks like being a very interesting application, but one of the problems already being foreseen by the creator himself is the nasty habit of some of the current designers of multi touch technology (Apple et al) to attempt to register patents on "Gestures", (a daft notion in my opinion, how can you patent a gesture?) but there ya go, sense never came into the equation when patents are being fought for.
Minority Report type screen interfaces are not too far away.
10 Responses to "Finally something might replace the mouse."
What, you mean like a graphics tablet?
Correct like a graphics tablet but not,
this is able to use ten cursors one for each finger and read gestures to use them for different commands , A Graphics tablet allows one cursor only using the pen (Or mouse) to touch with some having command areas that do not relate to the screen.
Microsoft Surface is just a touchscreen laid down flat and again suffers from the problem that your hands get in the way of what you are seeing so No, this is not like that, it is like taking the touch part of the screen and placing it somewhere else. CSI on the telly has been doing a lot of stuff using touch screens lately.Brian the touch mice are similar yes. they will be able to deal with five fingers of course, they are a nice concept.
Ten cursers multiplying my curses tenfold Mr. Geek.
Very Jean Luc Picard, I like the thumb and forefinger thing to *pfft* things with.
It's not the voice recognition thing I'm waiting for. No.
I'm waiting for your device which 1st reads my mind, then re-reads it to make sure , then discards that idiotic idea, chases the madness away, laughs long and hard at the residue and starts the process again to eventually arrive with the coherent sentence which I must have meant first. Then types without error.
Make it so.
Looks good to me.

While discussing bloodwork results with a client the other day, he asked me a very simple, and yet complex question: "What exactly are electrolytes and why do they matter?"
The simplicity of the question made me stop and think for a moment, and yet the complexity of the answer that came to mind made me want to re-think how I responded to my client. Electrolytes and electrolyte imbalances are an integral part of our diagnostic testing, and yet they are rarely used in themselves to diagnose specific conditions. Namely, their values (whether high, low or normal) are used in conjunction with other diagnostic information to determine what is afflicting your pet. So, let's take a look at what these electrolytes are and how we can use them to assess our canine and feline companions.
The main electrolytes that we look at when running a blood panel are sodium (Na), potassium (K), Calcium (Ca), Phosphorous (PO4), and chloride (Cl). These values are used in conjunction with other information within the blood panel to assess a patient's condition. Rarely are these values used in themselves to diagnose a specific condition, however, they play an important role in helping us understand the overall picture of what is going on within a patient's body.
Each electrolyte in itself can be elevated and/or decreased depending on what is afflicting your pet. Some of the main causes of electrolyte imbalances in our furry friends include vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, kidney disease, diabetes, intestinal disease, pancreatitis, feline lower urinary tract disease, inappetance or an imbalanced diet, and inaccurate supplementation. Of course, these are just a few of the main conditions that can result in electrolyte imbalances within your pet's internal environment.
Why are they important? Electrolytes are essential for maintaining your pet's normal internal environment. Electrolytes help to insure that the body maintains appropriate hydration, that muscles (including the heart) function properly, that the nervous system runs smoothly, that the digestive system does its job, that your pets blood can clot appropriately…the list goes on and on!
Tomorrow we'll tackle how to tell if your pet's electrolytes may be out of whack, and what to do about imbalances.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. — It is an elaborately crafted photographic film, extolled for its sharpness, vivid colors and archival durability. Yet die-hard fan Alex Webb is convinced the digital age soon will take his Kodachrome away.
ROCHESTER, N.Y. — It is an elaborately crafted photographic film, extolled for its sharpness, vivid colors and archival durability. Yet die-hard fan Alex Webb is convinced the digital age soon will take his Kodachrome away.
"Part of me feels like, boy, if only I'd been born 20 years earlier," says the 56-year-old photographer, whose work has appeared in National Geographic magazine. "I wish they would keep making it forever. I still have a lot of pictures to take in my life."
Only one commercial lab in the world, Dwayne's Photo in Parsons, Kan., still develops Kodachrome, a once-ubiquitous brand that has freeze-framed the world in rich but authentic hues since it was introduced in the Great Depression.
Eastman Kodak Co. now makes the slide and motion-picture film in just one 35mm format, and production runs — in which a master sheet nearly a mile long is cut up into more than 20,000 rolls — fall at least a year apart.
Kodak won't say when the last one occurred or hint at Kodachrome's prospects. Kodachrome stocks currently on sale have a 2009 expiration date. If the machines aren't fired up again, the company might just sell out the remaining supplies, and that would be the end.
"It's a low-volume product; all volumes (of color film) are down," said spokesman Chris Veronda.
For decades, Kodachrome was the standard choice for professional color photography and avant-garde filmmaking. At its peak, a reverential Paul Simon crooned "Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away" in 1973. It's the only film to have a state park named after it — photogenic Kodachrome Basin State Park in the red-rock canyons of southern Utah.
During its mass-market heyday in the 1960s and '70s, countless snapshooters put friendships in peril every time they hauled out a carousel projector and trays of slides to replay a family vacation.
But the landmark color-transparency created by Leopold Godowsky Jr. and Leopold Mannes — "God and Man" in photo research circles — went into a tailspin a generation ago. It was eclipsed by video, easy-to-process color negative films and a tidal-wave preference for hand-sized prints.
Nowadays, Kodachrome is confined to a small global market of devotees who wouldn't settle for anything else. And before long, industry watchers say, Kodak might well stop serving that steadily shrinking niche as the 128-year-old photography pioneer bets its future on electronic imaging.
The digital revolution is undermining all varieties of film, even a storied one that garnered its share of spectacular images: the giant Hindenburg zeppelin dissolving in a red-orange fireball in 1936; Edmund Hillary's dreamy snapshot of his Sherpa climbing partner atop Everest in 1953; and, most iconic of all, Abraham Zapruder's 8-millimeter reel of President Kennedy's assassination in 1963.
Steve McCurry's portrait of an Afghan refugee girl with haunting gray-green eyes that landed on the cover of National Geographic in 1985 is considered one of the finest illustrations of the film's subtle rendering of light, contrast and color harmony.
"You just look at it and think, this is better than life," said McCurry, 58, who has relied heavily on Kodachrome for all but the last two years of a 33-year career.
John Larish, a consultant and writer on photography, marvels at its staying power. "I've got Kodachromes from the 1930s and the blue skies look as bright as they did in the 1930s," he said.
Collectors of airplane and train images value its unsurpassed fade resistance. Assorted dentists, plastic surgeons and ophthalmologists still rely on its clarity and unique palette, especially for multiyear studies.
"Different eye diseases can have different colors," said Thomas Link, an ophthalmic photographer at Minnesota's Mayo Clinic who shoots 10 to 15 rolls of Kodachrome a week to help doctors diagnose and treat illnesses. "Even now, we will go back and look through images taken 30 years ago for research purposes."
If Kodachrome should vanish, "we'd either change to a different type of film or do it digitally," Link said, but long-term studies that hinge on image consistency might suffer.
Alarm bells have been ringing since Kodak exited the film-processing business in 1988. One by one, its Kodachrome home-movie and still-film formats have been discontinued, and only a 64-speed remains. (Film speed is a measure of its sensitivity to light; low-speed films require a longer exposure).
An even slower 25-speed version departed in 2002, an equally beloved 200-speed in 2006, a Super 8 movie stock in 2005 — all supplanted by standardized films far easier and cheaper to process.
Dwayne's, the Kodak subcontractor in Kansas that has had the market to itself since a Kodachrome lab in Tokyo closed in December, still processes tens of thousands of rolls annually, but admits sales are sliding.
"If Kodak doesn't feel it's economical, they might stop making the film itself," said owner Grant Steinle. And "if film volumes become so small that we're unable to economically process it, then we might stop."
Unlike any other color film, Kodachrome is purely black and white when exposed. The three primary colors that mix to form the spectrum are added in three development steps rather than built into its micrometer-thin emulsion layers. There's a high price for this: Dwayne's charges $8.45 per roll plus $9 for development. That's at least 50 percent more than color negative film, the kind that prints are made from.
As slide-film sales began to plummet in the 1980s, an already limited number of independent photofinishers willing to make use of Kodak's exacting color-diffusion development formulas fell away. Customers then evaporated when it became much harder to get Kodachrome processed quickly.
Ektachrome — another line of Kodak slide films — and similar products from Fuji, Konica and Agfa were well within the capabilities of all processors and took over the market as they improved in quality.
McCurry, who shot the "Afghan Girl" picture with Kodachrome, is turning to digital cameras as the technology gap closes.
"I like to shoot in extremely low light, inside of a home, a mosque, a covered bazaar," he said. "To stop movement, it's just absolutely impossible to do that with Kodachrome or with practically any film."
Yet aficionados like Webb remain bewitched by Kodachrome's "vibrant but not oversaturated colors."
"It has an emotional punchiness that really always seemed right for me," especially in tropical urban locales he gravitates to in the Caribbean and in "mucky light" near dawn or dusk. Digital boasts "remarkable clarity," he said, but "it's almost too clear and doesn't seem to have depth and texture the way film does."
Webb was "incredibly distressed" when Kodachrome 200, his all-time favorite, bit the dust in November 2006. He stockpiled 600 rolls and is using up the last 150 to complete a photography book on Cuba this fall.
"It seems kind of appropriate because Cuba is a world of the '50s on some level," Webb said. "It has existed in a bubble outside the world of globalization now for 50 years, and Kodachrome goes hand-in-hand."

Blackpool 2-2 Nott'm Forest
- From the section Football
Substitute Dexter Blackstock salvaged a point for Nottingham Forest with an injury-time strike at Blackpool.
Billy Sharp opened the scoring with his second goal for Forest, flicking in from close range after Danny Collins's deflected shot fell into his path.
Elliot Grandin grabbed the equaliser when he headed in Matt Phillips's cross before Gary Taylor-Fletcher drove in the second 15 minutes from time.
Blackstock came to Forest's rescue when he converted Simon Cox's headed cross.
The hosts had created the first good chance of the night when Stephen Crainey clipped the outside of the post with his shot following a good one-two with Tom Ince.
And Taylor-Fletcher also went close when he took the ball round keeper Lee Camp, but saw his shot cleared by Greg Halford.
But Sharp put Forest ahead and midfielder Andy Reid was then inches away from giving them a 2-0 lead with a free-kick that flew narrowly wide.
Grandin and Taylor-Fletcher put Blackpool in front, before Sharp had a brilliant chance to equalise, miscuing his shot when one-on-one with Gilks.
But in the 90th minute, the visitors ensured they would come away with a point when Blackstock chested the ball down and finished well.
The result leaves Forest in 10th on 18 points and Blackpool a place and a point behind.
Blackpool boss Ian Holloway:
"I said in the team meeting if Billy Sharp scores against us - he always does - then we shouldn't be bothered. The team laughed but then he went and scored.
"The point I was making though, was that we need to keep our heads up and keep our body language positive, which to our credit I thought we did.
"We have to work through our team because we don't have a big man up top to go direct. We have to pass our way through."
Nottingham Forest manager Sean O'Driscoll:
"I'm not disappointed with just a point, I think at some point you know Ian Holloway will throw caution to the wind and it's difficult to know what to do.
"Do you keep what you've got or try and go at them with four forwards on the pitch? The game petered out; we looked fine and then lost two goals.
"They kept plugging away, to give them some credit. His subs changed things for Blackpool and our changes, with Dexter coming on, changed it for us."

Chef Suzanne Goin has been recognized as a 2014 Outstanding Chef nominee for her work at Lucques. Her long-time business partner, Caroline Styne has been nominated for the 2014 Outstanding Restaurateur Award. Together, they own and operate several acclaimed restaurants in the Los Angeles area. The James Beard Awards will be held in New York City, May 2-5.
Lucques 8474 Melrose Ave, Los Angeles, CA
(323) 655-6277 http://www.lucques.com/
Chef Suzanne Goin was born in Los Angeles to food-obsessed Francophile parents. A graduate of Brown University, Suzanne's background includes positions at some of the most acclaimed restaurants in the United States, including Ma Maison, L'Orangerie in Los Angeles, Al Forno in Providence, Olives in Boston, Chez Panisse in Berkeley, and Alain Passard's Arpège in Paris. Her work as Executive Chef at Campanile put her on the culinary map in Los Angeles and laid the groundwork for her first restaurant.
In 1998, Suzanne opened Lucques in West Hollywood with her business partner Caroline Styne. The restaurant met with instant success and Suzanne was named one of Food and Wine magazine's "Best New Chefs" in 1999. Lucques received praise from Condé Nast Traveler, Gourmet, Bon Appétit and Saveur, including a prestigious 3 star review by the Los Angeles Times. A second restaurant, a.o.c., the groundbreaking concept of inspired wines by the glass with a small plates menu, opened in 2002 and was met with enthusiasm from the public and the press.
In 2005, Suzanne and her husband Chef David Lentz opened The Hungry Cat, an eclectic market-inspired seafood restaurant, which has since expanded to locations in Santa Monica and Santa Barbara.
Suzanne received two coveted awards from the prestigious James Beard Foundation in May 2006. Her first cookbook, Sunday Suppers at Lucques: Seasonal Recipes from Market to Table, published by Alfred A. Knopf in 2005 won Best Cookbook from a Professional Viewpoint. Moments later that evening, Suzanne's culinary achievements were recognized when she was awarded Best Chef California.
Suzanne and Caroline ventured to the Westside of Los Angeles in 2009 when they opened their largest and most glamorous restaurant, Tavern, in Brentwood. Designed by Jeffrey Alan Marks, Tavern brings together a trio of concepts under one roof – a full service dining room, a marketplace and a bar with craft cocktails and artisanal wines. Tavern is a beautiful yet casual neighborhood meeting place, open all day for breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as providing pastries, coffees and prepared food to go for the hungry locals.
Inspired by the success of their more casual Larder section of Tavern, Suzanne and Caroline opened The Larder at Maple Drive in the Fall of 2011 followed by The Larder at Burton Way in Spring 2013 at Rick Caruso's luxurious 8500 Burton Way complex on the edge of Beverly Hills. The Larder at LAX opened in the sleek and newly renovated Tom Bradley International Terminal at Los Angeles's airport in December 2013.
To celebrate the 10th anniversary of a.o.c., Suzanne and Caroline moved their beloved restaurant a mile west on 3rd Street to the iconic restaurant space that formerly housed Joe Allen and Orso. With one of the most beautiful outdoor garden settings in Los Angeles, a cozy wine room upstairs, a new cocktail program and a wine list of sustainable, organic and biodynamic wines, the new space is an absolute hit and has been embraced by the public.
Suzanne's second book,The A.O.C. Cookbook, also published by Alfred A. Knopf, debuted in October 2013 to glowing reviews in both the United States and Canada. The cookbook is a collection of seasonal recipes from the restaurant with wine notes by Caroline Styne and a complete section devoted to cheese, a major component to the a.o.c. menu. The book received top honors in the Chefs and Restaurants category by the International Association of Culinary Professionals (IACP) in 2014. In December 2013, Suzanne and Caroline launched The Larder Baking Company, a new wholesale operation for the breads and bakery goods developed with partner and master baker Nathan Dakdouk. The expanded production services all of their restaurants and retail operations in addition to supplying other restaurants and retail markets throughout greater Los Angeles and California.
Suzanne and Caroline are among the most respected restaurateurs in California, and continue to receive recognition for their food, beverage programs and service from the Los Angeles Times, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, L.A. Weekly, Daily News, Condé Nast Traveler, Gourmet, Food and Wine, Bon Appétit, Saveur, Los Angeles Magazine , Angeleno, Zagat and Gayot.com. They are co-founders, with David Lentz, Suzanne's husband and owner of The Hungry Cat, of L.A. Loves Alex's Lemonade, a fundraiser benefiting research for childhood cancer which has raised over $1.5 million since its inception in 2010.
Suzanne has received six nominations for Outstanding Chef of the Year by the James Beard Foundation. In 2011, she became a member of the International Culinary Panel of distinguished chefs for Singapore Airlines, developing her recipes for in-flight dining. Over the past few years, Suzanne and her business partner Caroline Styne have been honored to prepare several fundraising dinners for both President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama. Passionate about healthy sustainable food for children, Suzanne is also a founding member of Lunch Matters, the organization working to create a partner school lunch program to Alice Waters' Edible Schoolyard project. Since October 2013, Lunch Matters has been proudly serving its healthy, local and delicious school lunch menus at the Larchmont Charter School in Los Angeles.
Suzanne Goin and her husband David live in Los Angeles with their three children, two cats, one dog and multiple fish. Caroline Styne received her 3rd nomination for Outstanding Restaurateur of the Year.

Stocks D / Disney |
Subject: Re: Harrison Ford Signed? | Date: 2/15/2013 11:45 PM | |
Author: Fuskie | Number: 48423 of 51418 | |
I expect more production costs will leak out closer to the film's release, but I am not as sure we are "entitled" to this information. Disney is a huge company and I can't imagine them providing line item budgets for every project. No one is asking about the costs of the specific lands or attractions at Shanghai Disney. No one has asked if the cost for the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train was reasonable under a certain amount, or the Haunted Mansion could be operated more cheaply with 998 ghosts. At some point, we have to trust in the management team in which we invested. Every year we get the opportunity to vote for or against the Board of Directors, whose responsibility to us is to make sure management is running the company in our best interests. They are the ones that set the fiscal management rules and look at big ticket projects and give the company a green light, red light or sends it back for more work. It is Iger's responsibility to make sure his leaders are fiscally responsible and he himself is responsible to the Board. As for the movies themselves, Disney has 3 years to not only write, shoot, edit and market the film, but that is also 3 years to integrate it into the Disney ecosystem (to borrow the term from Apple), or what I will now call the Mousecosystem. That means potentially adding Star Tours to any theme park resorts that do not already have it, bringing Star Wars onto the cruise ship (think 80's disco night to the Star Wars theme), bringing the Clone Wars over to Disney XD from Cartoon Network, maybe even introducing a new Padawan show on Disney Junior. And how about intergalactic sports shorts coverage on ESPN? Fuskie Who expects the new films will be placed some decades into the future, rather than try to make Ford, Hamilton or Fisher look like their 20's selves, even with movie magic... |
