Gordon Bunshaft, Architect, Dies at 81
By PAUL GOLDBERGER
Published: August 8, 1990
Gordon Bunshaft, whose modernist skyscrapers, museums and libraries made him one of the most influential architects of the 20th century, died on Monday evening at his apartment on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. He was 81 years old.
Mr. Bunshaft died of cardiovascular arrest, said Leon Moed, one of his partners at the architecture firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. Mr. Bunshaft joined the firm in 1937 and spent 42 years there. When he retired in 1979, it was less as a member of a large corporate architectural office than as a designer with an immense international reputation of his own.
Until his retirement, the gruff, taciturn Mr. Bunshaft was the embodiment of Skidmore's New York office, which under his direction became the premier purveyor of cool, corporate modernism. Mr. Bunshaft did not look the part of tastemaker; he was stocky, had a gray crew cut and generally smoked a pipe. But he brought modern architecture to the corporate boardroom in the form of such landmark buildings as Lever House, One Chase Manhattan Plaza, 9 West 57th Street and the Pepsi-Cola Building (now 500 Park Avenue) in Manhattan; the Banque Lambert in Brussels; the National Commercial Bank building in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, and the Connecticut General Life Insurance headquarters in Bloomfield, Conn.
Shaping a Skyline
Unlike many other architects - including many in his own firm, which sharply changed its design direction after his retirement - Mr. Bunshaft never let down the flag of modern architecture. He believed deeply that the International Style of glass, metal and stone was the proper architectural expression for the 20th century, and that any attempt to return to the styles of the past was trivial and faddish. Mr. Bunshaft's commitment and consistency made him a hero in many architectural circles and helped him win the Pritzker Prize, often called architecture's Nobel, in 1988.
But it also put Mr. Bunshaft out of touch with generations of younger architects, to whom he appeared as a kind of architectural Rock of Gibraltar, a solid and lasting part of the landscape more than a fresh and changing presence. Mr. Bunshaft's work did evolve. But it was more a shift from an earlier, lighter kind of modernism, characterized by glass and metal and a sense that his buildings could almost float, to heavier, more massive structures of travertine. His earlier buildings, like the glass slabs of Lever House on Park Avenue, completed in 1952, or the Pepsi-Cola Building five blocks to the north, completed in 1959, received nearly unanimous praise from critics. Lewis Mumford, writing in The New Yorker, called the building ''an impeccable achievement . . . It says all that can be said, delicately, accurately, elegantly, with surfaces of glass.''
After a developer threatened to replace its light, airy slabs of green glass with a much larger structure, Lever House was declared a New York City landmark in 1983, one of the first modern buildings to be so honored. Many of Mr. Bunshaft's later projects met with less critical approval, however, and one of them, the glass tower with a sloping facade at 9 West 57th Street, completed in 1974, was cited by a civic group as a negative example of New York City architecture.
But for all he shaped the corporate skyline, Mr. Bunshaft also wanted to be remembered as an architect of monuments. He was exceptionally proud of one of his smallest buildings, a new wing added in 1962 to the classically styled Albright-Knox Gallery of Art in Buffalo, his hometown. The addition was typical of Mr. Bunshaft's stylistic leanings: he made no attempt to echo the classical style of the original museum, but instead set a simple, exceptionally elegant glass-and-marble box gently beside it.
In addition to the Albright-Knox, Mr. Bunshaft designed three major institutional buildings: the Beinecke Rare Book Library at Yale University, completed in 1963; the Lyndon Baines Johnson Library in Austin, Tex., completed in 1971, and the Hirshhorn Museum in Washington, completed in 1974.
A Sickly Child Who Drew
Gordon Bunshaft was born on May 9, 1909, to Russian immigrant parents. He was sickly as a child and frequently drew while in bed; a doctor who admired his pictures of houses told his mother that her son should become an architect.
Mr. Bunshaft attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he received both a bachelor's and a master's degree in architecture. He worked briefly for Harold Field Kellogg in Boston and then received a Rotch Traveling Fellowship, which underwrote an extended trip to Europe. There he saw several major works of modern architecture for the first time and met Walter Gropius, a founder of the Bauhaus school, who queried him about the readiness of the United States to accept the cool, crisp architecture of the International Style. Upon his return Mr. Bunshaft settled in New York, where he briefly worked for Edward Durell Stone and Raymond Loewy. Then, in 1937, he accepted a position with the fledgling New York office of the young Chicago architectural firm of Louis Skidmore and Nathaniel Owings, who were setting out to bring modern design to corporate America.

45/85 is an ABC News television documentary. It aired on September 18, 1985. The three-hour program combined archive film and television footage with new interviews to document post-World War II history, focusing especially on the Cold War.[1] That special was produced by Av Westin, who also produced Our World.[2]
Ted Koppel and Peter Jennings were the co-anchors. The executive producer of the broadcast was Av Westin and it was written by Koppel, Jennings and senior producer Pete Simmons. 45/85 featured interviews with then President of the United States Ronald Reagan, as well as interviews with every living former President, Jimmy Carter, Gerald Ford and Richard Nixon. In a stylistic innovation, 45/85 confined itself in its other interviews to people who were eyewitnesses and participants of the events they described, rather than historians or "experts."
The success of 45/85 led ABC to create the documentary series Our World in 1986.[1] Our World, with a similar format blending archive footage and eyewitness interviews, was critically acclaimed but low-rated and ABC canceled it after a single season.[3]

THE Archbishop of York attacked the Government yesterday for denying that Christians have the right to wear the cross at work.
Ministers are fighting a case at the European Court of Human Rights by two women claiming they were barred from wearing the symbol.
Check-in clerk Nadia Eweida was suspended by BA in 2006 for breaching its uniform code, while nurse Shirley Chaplin was banned from working on wards after refusing to hide her cross.
Lawyers for the two women claim the Human Rights Act protects wearing things that are not a "requirement of the faith".
The Government calls their case "ill-founded".
Sun columnist Dr John Sentamu argued ministers were "meddling in areas they ought not to".
He said: "This is not the business of government. They should leave it to the courts."

GBPUSD formed a cycle top at 1.5715 on 4-hour chart. Deeper decline towards 1.5327 previous low would likely be seen later today, as long as this level holds, the price action from 1.5327 is treated as consolidation of downtrend from 1.6617, and one more rise towards 1.5800 is still possible. On the other side, a breakdown below 1.5327 will signal resumption of downtrend, then another fall towards 1.5000 could be seen.

UPDATE 1-Airbus sees "significant" orders at Paris Airshow
(Adds details)
PARIS May 21 (Reuters) - Airbus expects to win a "significant number" of orders at next month's Paris Airshow, a senior executive said on Thursday.
Chief Strategy and Marketing Officer Marwan Lahoud was speaking at a news conference hosted by France's GIFAS aerospace industry association, of which he is also president.
He also said Airbus's delivery plans for the A400M military transporter faced possible disruption following a fatal crash earlier this month, but declined to comment further on the progress of a judicial investigation.
Airbus urged nations operating the plane this week to carry out tests on a piece of engine software.
"The work is ongoing. To understand the root cause, an (alert) was sent out as a precaution. As soon as we began to identify a certain number of aspects of what had happened, then it was our duty to warn operators," Lahoud told reporters.
Two people familiar with the matter have said the crash may have been caused by a suspected problem in installing the software, but say it is too early to rule out other causes.
The A400M will be displayed on the ground at the Paris Airshow, but will not take part in daily flying displays, organizers said.
Bombardier's CS300 CSeries jetliner will make its debut flying appearance there following a spate of development delays. Continued...

IB monitors the food prices across the country throughout the year and noticed possibilities of a spike in the prices, following which it informed all the relevant ministries about it. But, the latter sat on the entire issue.
As per a Mid Day report, the IB had informed the prime minister, the finance minister, and the home minister about the escalating prices of Onions.
The IB had further mentioned hoarding as the possible reason behind the price rise in the six states of northern India. Meanwhile, Sharad Pawar echoed the same idea, asking the governments to curb hoarding. He also encouraged the chief ministers of all states to invoke the Essential Commodities Act against hoarders.

How did wedding planner make your day special?
Finding Geona and her team are the best thing to happen to us. I highly recommend this professional team. Not only did they make my daughter's wedding THE PERFECT event, she saved us hours of heartache, wedding stress, money, time etc. The knowledge she and her team bring to the table is unsurpassed. They went over and beyond on every detail and even added a few pleasant surprises that "we just had to have and they knew we would love". I wanted to surprise my daughter with a Martini Luge that she really wanted but wasn't in our budget. Geona handled detail, all I had to do was pick from 3 drawings. My daughter was thrilled and VERY surprised.
Useful suggestions, tips, wisdom your planner offered?
They provided us a strict time line and made us stick to it. She made sure we thought of everything when esablishing our initial budget, there were no surprises.
How the planner reduced your inner-Bridezilla?
They are probably the reason my daughter and I are still friends today :) They took the stress off Mom so I could support the Bride. When questions came up, a quick call or email to Geona had everything resolved in no time.
Value of a wedding planner?
The team of vendors she networks with are all carefully screened and top shelf. If you think a Wedding planner is a expense you can not afford, think again. She saved us money and kept us on budget. She knew where to find the most obscure items we had been hunting for. They created our centerpieces, put together all the guest favors, handled all of the RSVP's and if they did not get a respose, she called or emailed. She handled the seating charts and cards...so much more, I could go on and on. What a load off our plate. Thank you Geona, Trish and Jennyfer, You are part of the family now.

Yasim Muhammed Basardah
|This article's lead section may not adequately summarize key points of its contents. (July 2010)
|Yasim Muhammed Basardah
|Detained at
|extrajudicial detention
|Transferred to Spain on May 4, 2010
Yasim Muhammed Basardah is a citizen of Yemen who was detained in the United States's Guantanamo Bay detention camps, in Cuba.[1] His Guantanamo Internment Serial Number is 252.[2] Basardah was an informant for the interrogators in Guantanamo where he was rewarded with his own cell, McDonald's apple pies, chewing tobacco, a truck magazine and other "comfort items".[3]
Habeas corpus appeal, and appeal under the Detainee Treatment Act[edit]
Yasim Muhammed Basardah had a habeas corpus petition filed on his behalf. In September 2007 the Department of Justice published dossiers of unclassified documents arising from the Combatant Status Review Tribunals of 179 captives.[4] His documents were not among those the Department of Defense published.
The Detainee Treatment Act and Military Commissions Act[edit]
The United States Congress passed the Detainee Treatment Act of 2005 and the Military Commissions Act of 2006. Both these Acts included provisions to close of Guantanamo captives' ability to file habeas corpus petitions.[5][6]
The Detainee Treatment Act included a provision to proscribe Guantanamo captives who had not already initiated a habeas corpus petition from initiating new habeas corpus petitions.[5] The Act included provision for an alternate, more limited form of appeal for captives. Captives were allowed to submit limited appeals to panels of three judges in a Washington DC appeals court. The appeals were limited—they could not be based on general principles of human rights. They could only be based on arguments that their Combatant Status Review Tribunal had not followed the rules laid out for the operation of Combatant Status Review Tribunals.
Nine months later Congress passed the Military Commissions Act.[5] This Act contained provision to close off all the remaining outstanding habeas corpus petitions. After the closure of the habeas corpus petitions some Guantanamo captives had appeals in the Washington DC court submitted on their behalf, as described in the Detainee Treatment Act.
The DTA appeals progressed very slowly.[5] Initially the Department of Justice argued that the captive's lawyers, and the judges on the panel, needed consider no more evidence than the "Summary of Evidence memos" prepared for the captives' CSR Tribunals. By September 2007 the Washington DC court ruled that the evidence that formed the basis of the summaries had to be made available.
The Administration then argued that it was not possible to present the evidence the Tribunals considered in 2004—because the evidence had not been preserved.[5]
Only one captive, a Uyghur captive named Hufaiza Parhat, had his DTA appeal run to completion. On June 20, 2008 his three judge panel concluded that his Tribunal had erred and that he never should have been confirmed as an enemy combatant.
Boumediene v. Bush[edit]
On June 12, 2008 the United States Supreme Court ruled, in Boumediene v. Bush, that the Military Commissions Act could not remove the right for Guantanamo captives to access the US Federal Court system. And all previous Guantanamo captives' habeas petitions were eligible to be re-instated. The judges considering the captives' habeas petitions would be considering whether the evidence used to compile the allegations the men and boys were enemy combatants justified a classification of "enemy combatant".[7]
Basardah's appeal under the DTA[edit]
Basardah's appeal under the DTA was suspended by the panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit examining his case.[8][9] On 5 November 2008 the panel suspended his appeal on jurisdictional grounds. The panel wrote that when Congress passed the Detainee Treatment Act, stripping captives of the right to habeas corpus, they didn't anticipate that the Supreme Court would restore it, and that it was a mistake to proceed on two separate mechanisms for proceeding towards the same end.
Lyle Denniston, writing in Scotusblog, commented that this ruling implied that DTA appeals were closed for all future petitioners.[10] He speculated that the other 190 outstanding DTA appeals would regard it as a precedent. Denniston wrote that Basardah had been waiting for his DTA appeal, 07-cv-1192, to be heard since June 2007.
Asylum in Spain[edit]
On May 19, 2010, historian Andy Worthington, author of The Guantanamo Files, reported that Saba News was reporting Yasin had been transferred to Spain.[11]

Despite relying on Basardah's tips, military officials have expressed reservations about the credibility of their star witness since 2004. His trustworthiness was further thrown in doubt a little more than two weeks ago when a federal judge ordered a 21-year-old prisoner freed, saying he could not rely on Basardah's word to justify the man's confinement.

Is the government taking the position that this evidence is both critically, vitally, and hugely important to national security, but also, um, lost? Not quite. But it is saying that the 'record' relied upon to lock up men for years is somehow so scattered among various Department of Defense 'components, and all relevant federal agencies' that it cannot be pulled together for a review.mirror

Louisville already has verbal commitments from 6'11 four-star center Michael Chandler and 6'6 four-star small forward Ryan Taylor. The Cardinals are also hot and heavy after a pair of five-star backcourt prospects – PG Marquis Teague and SG Wayne Blackshear. That would leave just one spot unaccounted for - power forward.
That's where 6'10, 210 pound Zach Price fits into the puzzle. Louisville made Price a high priority prospect in July after hosting him on an unofficial visit in June. Cardinals assistant Steve Masiello has convinced Price and several family members to make a return visit early next month when the Louisville football team opens the season against Indiana State.
next month.
"I'm going to Louisville September 5 for sure," Price said. "This upcoming visit I've basically got the same people coming with me as the last one and I think we're going to be attending the football game. My uncle and aunt and my stepdad and mom are coming down with me."
Masiello is the front-man with Price for Louisville and his ground-work has made the Cardinals strong contenders in his recruitment. "We've been talking to him a lot - both me and my stepdad," said Price. "I would describe my interest in Louisville as being pretty high up there because they're showing a lot of interest and dedication during the recruitment process. But it's still the same as everybody. I'm keeping my options open."
Though Price is listed as the No. 3 center prospect in the nation by Scout.com, Pitino thinks his future at the next level is at power forward. A gifted shot-blocker who runs the court well, Price averaged 13 points, eight rebounds and nine blocked shots as a junior.
"(Louisville) said they would basically try to make me a more diverse big man and play me at the four position," Price said. "That's cool with me."
Price said Florida, Oklahoma, Michigan State and Louisville are the schools recruiting him the hardest. He also holds offer from Ohio State, Wake Forest, Minnesota, Indiana and Wisconsin. "There's a wide list but those are the schools that are recruiting me hard right now and I want to see more of," Price said, adding that he would try to visit those other schools this year.
As for a decision, Price said he likely wouldn't make one until after his junior season.

Teammates DE Corey Miller and DT/DE Brandon Willis get most of the publicity for the Byrnes defensive line but college coaches should be taking a long hard look at 2010 DT Roland Johnson. Moving from Camden High during the offseason Johnson has made the most of the spotlight at Byrnes and has proved that he indeed belongs as a starter on one of that nation's top defensive lines on the high school level.
The 6'1 250 pound strongman put together a monstrous performance against rivals Dorman on Friday night and we have all of the highlights for you below.
Check back later this week with SCPrepNation.com for a recruiting update with Johnson to find out what the very latest is regarding his status. Nobody else covers SC high school football recruiting better than SCPrepNation.com.

Police are investigating reports of the death of a British man in Syria.
Officers were searching a house linked to student Abu Layth in Didsbury, Manchester, and speaking to his relatives, said Detective Chief Inspector Will Chatterton, of the north-west counter-terrorism unit.
"Officers are providing support to the family and are speaking to them to understand how a man from the north-west came to be reportedly killed in Syria," he said.
The investigation follows reports on Wednesday that another Briton had staged a suicide bomb attack on a prison in Syria. Officers were examining a house in Crawley, West Sussex, belonging to Abdul Waheed Majeed, after reports that a British jihadi carried out the deadly bombing last week.
Chatterton said on Thursday: "As part of the national prevent strategy, officers are working to assess how people are drawn into travelling to Syria to become involved in conflict and how to prevent others doing the same.
"There is widespread concern about the situation in Syria and other conflict zones and the way that some will be driven to travel there to engage in humanitarian work or to take part in the fighting. We know that some have already lost their lives or been detained by the regime and badly treated."
He said anyone concerned that a person was considering such travel should tell the authorities.
"The best way for people to help is to donate to registered charities with ongoing humanitarian operations in Syria and the region."
He called on the Muslim community and specialist press to help ensure "the understandable desire to help is not exploited to actually exacerbate the conflict".

Scenography in Canada: Selected Designers
Scenography, the design for live performance, conceives of the creation of an environment rather than merely providing d cor or background. Scenography in Canada: Selected Designers, is a new departure in the critical discussion of theatre in Canada, in which Natalie Rewa examines the work of seven of the country's important theatre designers: Susan Benson, Astrid Janson, Mary Kerr, Michael Levine, Ken MacDonald, Jim Plaxton, and Teresa Przybylski.
These artists have been responsible for exciting initiatives in design during one of the most dynamic periods in the history of Canadian theatre, from the early 1970s to the late 1990s, when new companies were founded and new theatre facilities were created. Juxtaposing commentary by the artist and her own analysis, Rewa discusses the interactions of light, sets, and costume, and demonstrates how a multifaceted visual text that includes human performance is created in the works of each artist. The volume includes a collection of sketches, photos of work in progress, and completed designs, many of which have not been previously published.

New Braunfels Police Lt. Mike Rust said Gabriel Gomez died at 5:57 a.m. near the Union Pacific crossing at Alt-gelt Road just off Ijoop 337. "Mr. Gomez was seen sitting on the tracks," Rust said. 'The engine crew blew the whistle, he got off the tracks and went back to retrieve something. As he bent down to get it, he got hit," Rust said. Union Pacific spokesman Mark Davis said the train involved -in the incident was a 40-car freight running from Chicago to Laredo. He confirmed that the crew had seen the victim — and had tried to warn him to get off of the tracks. "The crew began to blow the horn and turned on the bell," Davis said. "The person st/xxl up and tumid hack toward the track to pick up either a backpack or a sack," the company spokesman said. The train traveled another 1,930 feet before the crew was able to bring it to a full stop, Davis said. 50 cents New Braunfels police officers Craig Christoph-erson and Sgt.

JESSIE SLATEN/ HorakJ-Zoitung Pinto: Time to get handle on street woes PINTO By Dylan Jimenez Staff Writer The city's $31 million street problem could be addressed by midsummer, New Braunfels City Manager ('huck Pinto said Monday. Residents voted down Saturday two propositions that would have diverted $fi million over the next four years from economic development to street repair. Pinto stressed the vote does not mean residents arc* willing to wait for street repair. "Its very important to look at economic development in this city," Pinto said of the elc*ction results. But it is also important, he said, that the city get a handle on its street problem. "Every day those costs are rising," the city manager said.

Pinto said developing a plan to address street repairs takes engineering principles and jioli-tics. He added just how the city council plans to tackle the stre*et maintenance problem would be decided once the new council members are* sworn in.

"The value of the hood was placed at about $400," Brink-koeter said. At 5:29 p.m., firefighters were called back out, the fire marshal said, when the family apparently turned the breaker back on.

Laird, who was the recreation manager for the Arlington Park's Department, started Feb. 17, alter beating four other candidates for the $72,(Hit) a year position. I iii rd said her goals for the department include past experiences. "I ve got some ideas based on my past experiences," she said. "Whether they work out remains to be seen though. But I also want to take into consideration my staff's experiences, as well as the community's input." City Manager Chuck Pinto said development of the parks department is a priority for city council. "We want the parks department to be on a equal looting with the tire department DAVID INGRAM/Herald-Zeitung Stacey Laird, started with the city Feb. 17 after working as recreation manager for the Arlington Parks Department. and the police department," he said. The parks and recreation department's revenues for fiscal year 2003 were $419,000. Total expenditures were $2,015,000. "One of my biggest concerns is infrastructure improvements," Laird said. "We need new restrooms, signs and playground equipment. But none of those are immediate needs, although they will definitely give the parks a feeling of change for the better." Laird said she hopes to implement more youth programs. "I d like to get a summer track and field program organized for youth," she said. "But I also want to upgrade playground equipment and (have) more sports and leisure-time activities for kids like a summer swimming team for kids at varying athletic levels." A $25,000 grant will help improve Camp Comal adult softball fields, replace some bleachers and upgrade the irrigation, she said. Community feedback will be an important tool for Dun!. "We want to develop a customer matrix program and use surveys to gather feedback from park users," she said. With summer only months away, Laird is preparing for one of the biggest weekends of the year, she said. "We're gearing up for summer, so I'm trying to become an expert on river activities and summer recreation policies in a short period of time," she said. "Laster weekend is one of our busiest weekends, and we have to be ready. We'll be putting all our resources into that weekend." Pinto said I .anda Lark Golf Course might eventually be under the parks department. See PARKS. Page 3 City considers nixing permit-only parking AT A GLANCE I Transportation Advisory Board I 6 30 p m today I Municipal Building, meeting room D, 424 S Casten Ave Ken Valentine "We re bursting at the seams, lf we want to be a world-class resort destination, we have to have world-class facilities." By Scott Mahon Staff Writer New Braunfels officials say attempts to restrict rivet side neighborhood streets to permit-only parking during the summer aren't working. Now, the Transportation and T raffic Advisory Board will consider dropping the permit-only requirements for East Lincoln Street, Washington Avenue and Cross Liver Street. The board only makes recommendations to city council, which will ultimately decide the issue. Each summer, streets near the river are cluttered with parked cars as out-of-town visitors feel free to park wherever they can find a spot, local residents say. Daisey Watson, who lives in the 500 block of Union Avenue, said tourists park in her driveway to get to the river. "I ve had people park in my driveway and change clothes," she said. "I don't know what the solu tion is, but something has to be done." T hree years ago, in response to complaints, council restricted designated streets to permit-only parking on weekends and holidays during the summer, said District 6 Councilman Ken Valentine. "To help relieve the traffic congestion, blocked mailboxes and driveways, lewd behavior, inebriated tourist harassment of taxpaying citizens, council approved weekend parking by permit only," Valentine said. "Weekend barricades are used to control the traffic How on those few streets." Since then, more than 2,(KH) residents in adjacent neighborhoods petitioned council for permit parking on their streets. However, officials say the city lacks sufficient resources to pro tect all neighborhoods from the summer deluge of parked vt T lit It s. "We've had requests from adjacent neighborhoods for permit-only parking, hut we just don't have the stall to enforce more permit parking," said Mayor Adam Cork. "Its simply an issue of fairness. Its not cut appropriate way to spend taxpayers dollars, because we don't have the manpower to close off all the streets in neighborhoods that want permit parking. ' Valentine said infrastructure was the problem. "We could raise the river management fee ami get 4B to fund a large parking garage," he said. "We're bursting at the seams, lf we want to In* a world-class resort destination, we have to have world class facilities, like ofi-site parking garages with shuttle service and good restrooms, not Bort-a Duties and parking in residential areas."

Republicans, on the other hand, have three runoff races to decide April 13. And while Democrats have no party-affiliated runoffs, those who did not vote Tuesday can still impact the April 13 election, if they should choose to cross over and cast ballots in the Republican ticket runoffs (see related story, below). The April 13 election is all important to the six Republicans still in the races. In Comal County, winning the Republican Party's primary election or a subsequent runoff is usually tantamount to winning the general election as COP winners often end up unopposed in the general election. That would he the case in all three of the Republican races still being contested: ■ In County Commission Precinct I, incumbent Jack Dawson will try to hold off the challenge of retired U.S. Air Force Col. Bob Wickman. ■ In the Precinct 4 constable race, candidates Doug Dunlap and Shane Kapp will square off to determine who See RUNOFF.

Page 2 Stamp key to knowing who can vote in runoff By Ron Maloney Staff Writer The primary elections are conducted by the political parties — Republican or Democrat — and require a voter to declare a party. So what, then, are the ramifications of declaring a political party at primary time? Who gets to vote in a runoff election? The short answer in (ritual (bounty's three runoffs slated for April 13, is Republicans, Republicans, Republicans — unless you're a I Jemocrat wlio didn't vote in the primary. That's because neither county Democrat election went to a runoff . Only one, Precinct 3 (rimmissioner and Democrat Cristina /amora, even faces a challenge in November — Republican Greg Darker. Those who brought their voter registration card to the primary had it stamped with the party they declared — Republican or I )emocrat. That stamp is key to wilether a person can vote iti the runoffs. Comal County Elections Coordinator I innell I linojosa said Democrats who voted in the Democrat party are locked out for the runoff but can vote for candidates of either party in November. "If you didn't vote at all T uesday, you can vote in the runoffs," I linojosa said. "lf you voted Democrat, you can't vote in the runoffs because they're Republican races. If you voted Republican in the primary, you would have to vote Republican in the runoff." Sound contusing? It needn't be, I linojosa said. The bottom line is simple. "I)emocrats can't cross over in the runoff," she said, "lf you voted one way or the other in the primary, you have to stay with the same party in the runoffs. If you missed the primary, you could vote in either party's runoff." T hat means a Democrat who didn t vote in the primary could vote in a Republican runoff. Regardless, she said, voters can go either way in the general election — Republican or Democrat. The April 13 runoff elections will be preceded by early voting at the courthouse April 5-8.

The foundation stone of the project-- Haryana Anu Vidyut Pariyojna-- will be laid at Gorakhpur village of the district. The plant will have four units, each of 700 MWs and it will be built at a cost Rs 23,502 crore, an official spokesman said here. The nuclear plant will accelerate the pace of development of the area, an official spokesman said here.
In view of the Prime Minister's visit tight security arrangements have been made. Ten Superintendent of Police rank officers have been put on duty as part of nearly 2,500 policemen who have been given the task of foolproof arrangements, official sources said.
The spokesman said that the setting up of this nuclear power plant would not only increase the power supply, but would also generate more employment opportunities. A total of 1,503 acres of land was acquired for setting up of the plant, out of which a bulk 1,313 acres of land belongs to Gorakhpur village.
Foundation stone of the project will be laid at Gorakhpur village of the distri
The entire land belonged to 847 families, he said. The spokesman said that about Rs 450 crore has been given to the farmers as compensation. Along with lump sum compensation, the government would also give royalty every year to the farmers for the next 33 years which would prove to be a dual benefit, he added.
The project, which was in the pipeline since 2009, had faced resistance from the people living in the area and some environmental activists.
Principal opposition party INLD, too, had earlier raised safety concerns about the project, especially in the wake of the Fukushima incident in Japan.

Alexican - Shipwrecked
As Valour had tore out the cabin us girls had followed the boys. Somehow I soon lost both Arien and Odael, my mind set on one thing. Valour would want to be the one to save us all, so of course he'd be up at the front of the ship. Putting my head down, I ran against the wind, rushing to get there.
When I did get there it was to see an unconscious captain and a grinning Valour, laughing at the elements as he steered the ship.
"Did you do this?" I shouted, forgetting my shyness in the danger we were in, and pointing to the captain.
"Oh no" laughed Valour. "It was like this when I got here."
I wasn't sure whether or not to believe him. But I didn't push the issue, because suddenly a shout further down the ship had me rushing to the very front, only to see the giant rock Valour was steering us into.
"Valour you're going to kill us all," I shouted, to be heard over the wind.
Valour laughed. "No I'm saving us," he said, grinning all the while.
"No look, you're steering us into a rock. We're going to crash!" I shouted back, the wind whipping my hair around and rain lashing my face. Just then a flash of lightning illuminated the deck and the rock that would surely be our doom.
"You're just trying to take the glory for yourself," Valour said, shaking his head and refusing to look where he pointed.
Muttering under my breath about fools and heroes, I suddenly jumped for the steering wheel, pushing Valour aside. He held onto his side though, fighting me all the way to stay on the course he was. Having no choice, I let go of the steering wheel for a second, and picked up a lose bit of timber, knocking Valour over the head in a sudden adrenaline filled rush of energy. He dropped, out cold and I knew he'd raise issue about it later. I also could tell that there was no way we weren't going to hit the rock but, steering to port as hard as I could I was hoping we might avoid hitting it head on and being torn to pieces. Moving the wheel was hard, and I had never done something like this before, but I wanted to save not just my life but others as well. And I certainly didn't know how to swim, so crossing my fingers I kept turning, knowing it wouldn't be enough to save us but hoping it would buy us a little time.

Automation Fundamentals Hardware Components for Automation Computer Numerical Control Industrial Robotics Manufacturing Systems A manufacturing system can be defined as a collection of integrated equipment and human resources that performs one or more processing and/or assembly operations on a starting work material, part, or set of parts The integrated equipment consists of production machines, material handling and positioning devices, and computer systems The manufacturing systems accomplish the valueadded work on the part or product Automation Fundamentals Automation can be defined as the technology by which a process or procedure is performed without human assistance Humans may be present, but the process itself operates under is own self-direction Three components of an automated system: 1. Power 2. A program of instructions 3. A control system to carry out the instructions Three Basic Types of Automation Fixed automation - the processing or assembly steps and their sequence are fixed by the equipment configuration Programmable automation - equipment is designed with the capability to change the program of instructions to allow production of different parts or products Flexible automation - an extension of programmable automation in which there is virtually no lost production time for setup changes or reprogramming Features of Fixed Automation High initial investment for specialized equipment High production rates The program of instructions cannot be easily changed because it is fixed by the equipment configuration Thus, little or no flexibility to accommodate product variety Features of Programmable Automation High investment in general purpose equipment that can be reprogrammed Ability to cope with product variety by reprogramming the equipment Suited to batch production of different product and part styles Lost production time to reprogram and change the physical setup Lower production rates than fixed automation Features of Flexible Automation High investment cost for custom-engineered equipment Capable of producing a mixture of different parts or products without lost production time for changeovers and reprogramming Thus, continuous production of different part or product styles Medium production rates Between fixed and programmable automation types Hardware Components for Automation Sensors Actuators Interface devices Process controllers - usually computer-based devices such as a programmable logic controller Sensors A sensor is a device that converts a physical stimulus or variable of interest (e.g., force, temperature) into a more convenient physical form (e.g., electrical voltage) for purpose of measuring the variable Two types An analog sensor measures a continuous analog variable and converts it into a continuous signal A discrete sensor produces a signal that can have only a limited number of values Actuators An actuator is a device that converts a control signal into a physical action, usually a change in a process input parameter The action is typically mechanical, such as a change in position of a worktable or speed of a motor The control signal is usually low level, and an amplifier may be required to increase the power of the signal to drive the actuator Amplifiers are electrical, hydraulic, or pneumatic Interface Devices Interface devices allow the process to be connected to the controller and vice versa Sensor signals form the process are fed into the controller Command signals from the controller are sent to the process Process Controllers Most process control systems use some type of digital computer as the controller Requirements for real-time computer control: Respond to incoming signals from process Transmit commands to the process Execute certain actions at specific points in time Communicate with other computers that may be connected to the process Accept inputs from operating personnel Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) A PLC is a microcomputer-based controller that uses stored instructions in programmable memory to implement logic, sequencing, timing, counting, and arithmetic control functions, through digital or analog input/output modules, for controlling machines and processes PLCs are widely used process controllers that satisfy the preceding real-time controller requirements Major Components of a Programmable Logic Controller Computer Numerical Control (CNC) A form of programmable automation in which the mechanical actions of a piece of equipment are controlled by a computer program which generates coded alphanumeric data The data represent relative positions between a workhead (e.g., a cutting tool) and a workpart CNC operating principle is to control the motion of the workhead relative to the workpart and to control the sequence of motions Components of a CNC System 1. Part program - detailed set of commands to be followed by the processing equipment 2. Machine control unit (MCU) - microcomputer that stores and executes the program by converting each command into actions by the processing equipment, one command at a time 3. Processing equipment - accomplishes the sequence of processing steps to transform the starting workpart into completed part CNC Coordinate System Consists of three linear axes (x, y, z) of Cartesian coordinate system, plus three rotational axes (a, b, c) Rotational axes are used to orient workpart or workhead to access different surfaces for machining Most CNC systems do not require all six axes CNC Coordinate Systems Coordinate systems used in CNC control: (a) for flat and prismatic work and (b) for rotational work Two Types of Positioning Absolute positioning Locations are always defined with respect to origin of axis system Incremental positioning Next location is defined relative to present location CNC Positioning System Motor and leadscrew arrangement in a Computer numerical control positioning system CNC Positioning System Converts the coordinates specified in the CNC part program into relative positions and velocities between tool and workpart Leadscrew pitch p - table is moved a distance equal to the pitch for each revolution Table velocity (e.g., feed rate in machining) is set by the RPM of leadscrew To provide x-y capability, a single-axis system is piggybacked on top of a second perpendicular axis Two Basic Types of Control in Computer Numerical Control Open loop system Operates without verifying that the actual position is equal to the specified position Closed loop control system Uses feedback measurement to verify that the actual position is equal to the specified location Two Types of Control System (a) Closed loop and (b) open loop Two Basic Types of Control in Computer Numerical Control Operation of an Optical Encoder Precision in Positioning Three critical measures of precision in positioning: 1. Control resolution 2. Accuracy 3. Repeatability Control Resolution (CR) Defined as the distance between two adjacent control points in the axis movement Control points are locations along the axis to which the worktable can be directed to go CR depends on: Electromechanical components of positioning system Number of bits used by controller to define axis coordinate location Statistical Distribution of Mechanical Errors When a positioning system is directed to move to a given control point, the movement to that point is limited by mechanical errors Errors are due to various inaccuracies and imperfections, such as gear backlash, play between leadscrew and worktable, and machine deflection Errors are assumed to form a normal distribution with mean = 0 and constant standard deviation over axis range Accuracy in a Positioning System Maximum possible error that can occur between desired target point and actual position taken by system For one axis: Accuracy = 0.5 CR + 3 where CR = control resolution; and = standard deviation of the error distribution Repeatability Capability of a positioning system to return to a given control point that has been previously programmed Repeatability of any given axis of a positioning system can be defined as the range of mechanical errors associated with the axis Repeatability = 3 CNC Part Programming Techniques 1. 2. 3. 4. Manual part programming Computer-assisted part programming CAD/CAM-assisted part programming Manual data input Common features: Points, lines, and surfaces of workpart must be defined relative to CNC axis system Movement of cutting tool must be defined relative to these part features Applications of Computer Numerical Control Operating principle of CNC applies to many processes Many industrial operations require the position of a workhead to be controlled relative to the part or product being processed Two categories of CNC applications: 1. Machine tool applications 2. Non-machine tool applications Machine Tool Applications CNC widely used for machining operations such as turning, drilling, and milling CNC has motivated development of machining centers, which change their own cutting tools to perform a variety of machining operations Other CNC machine tools: Grinding machines Sheet metal pressworking machines Thermal cutting processes Non-Machine Tool Applications Tape laying machines and filament winding machines for composites Welding machines, both arc welding and resistance welding Component insertion machines in electronics assembly Drafting machines (x-y plotters) Coordinate measuring machines for inspection Benefits of CNC Reduced non-productive time Results in shorter cycle times Lower manufacturing lead times Simpler fixtures Greater manufacturing flexibility Improved accuracy Reduced human error Industrial Robotics An industrial robot is a general purpose programmable machine that possesses certain anthropomorphic features The most apparent anthropomorphic feature is the robot's mechanical arm, or manipulator Robots can perform a variety of tasks such as loading and unloading machine tools, spot welding automobile bodies, and spray painting Robots are typically used as substitutes for human workers in these tasks Robot Anatomy An industrial robot consists of Mechanical manipulator A set of joints and links to position and orient the end of the manipulator relative to its base Controller Operates the joints in a coordinated fashion to execute a programmed work cycle Manipulator of an industrial robot (photo courtesy of Adept) Manipulator Joints and Links A robot joint is similar to a human body joint It provides relative movement between two parts of the body Typical industrial robots have five or six joints Manipulator joints - classified as linear or rotating Each joint moves its output link relative to its input link Coordinated movement of joints enables robot to move, position, and orient objects Manipulator Design Robot manipulators can usually be divided into two sections: Arm-and-body assembly - function is to position an object or tool Three joints are typical for arm-and-body Wrist assembly - function is to properly orient the object or tool Two or three joints are associated with wrist Five Basic Arm-and-Body Configurations 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Polar Cylindrical Cartesian coordinate Jointed-arm SCARA (Selectively Compliant Assembly Robot Arm) Basic Arm-and-Body Configurations (a) Polar, (b) cylindrical, and (c) Cartesian coordinate Basic Arm-and-Body Configurations (d) Jointed-arm and (e) SCARA (Selectively Compliant Assembly Robot Arm) Manipulator Wrist The wrist is assembled to the last link of the arm-and-body The SCARA is sometimes an exception because it is almost always used for simple handling and assembly tasks involving vertical motions A wrist is not usually present at the end of its manipulator Substituting for the wrist on the SCARA is usually a gripper to grasp components for movement and/or assembly End Effectors Special tooling that connects to the robot's wrist to perform the specific task 1. Tools - used for a processing operation Applications: spot welding guns, spray painting nozzles, rotating spindles, heating torches, assembly tools 2. Grippers - designed to grasp and move objects (usually parts) Applications: part placement, machine loading and unloading, and palletizing Gripper End Effector A robot gripper: (a) open and (b) closed to grasp a workpart Robot Programming Robots execute a stored program of instructions that define the sequence of motions and positions in the work cycle Much like a part program in CNC In addition to motion instructions, the program may include commands for other functions: Interacting with external equipment Responding to sensors Processing data Two Basic Robot Programming Methods 1. Leadthrough programming Teaching-by-showing - manipulator is moved through sequence of positions in the work cycle and the controller records each position in memory for subsequent playback 2. Computer programming languages Robot program is prepared at least partially offline for subsequent downloading to robot controller Where Should Robots be Used? Work environment is hazardous for humans Work cycle is repetitive The work is performed at a stationary location Part or tool handling is difficult for humans Multi-shift operation Long production runs and infrequent changeovers Part positioning and orientation are established at the beginning of work cycle, since most robots cannot see Applications of Industrial Robots Three basic categories: 1. Material handling Moving materials or parts (e.g., machine loading and unloading) 2. Processing operations Manipulating a tool (e.g., spot welding, spray painting) 3. Assembly and inspection May involve moving parts or tools

Magnesium in the body
Depending on body weight, a human body contains about 20-28g of magnesium. Around 60% are found in skeletal and teeth. Another 35% are localized intracellularly, particularly in the muscles.
After potassium, magnesium is the most important intracellular cation in the human body. It does therefore in many enzymatic processes, especially in energy transfer, as a cofactor an important role. Magnesium controls the enzymatic processes in carbohydrate and protein metabolism.
As essential cofactor Magnesium is involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions
- Magnesium is a component of bones and teeth.
- Is essential for the normal muscle function and energy metabolism.
- Plays important role in the energy metabolism, skeletal structure in the transmission of impulses in the nervous system in muscle contraction.
Magnesium is responsible for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body. Known are positive characteristics with cardiovascular, bone conservation, energy metabolism and psyche. In addition, researchers are now focusing intensively on the context of magnesium and their cognitive functions.
Magnesium in the brain
Unfortunately, it is very difficult for the body to obtain optimal levels of magnesium in the brain. This issue is particularly important for older people, because magnesium deficiency increases significantly later in life.
Most commercially available magnesium supplements are not well absorbed in the nervous system. To overcome this obstacle, L-Threonate Magnesium was developed to specifically counteract the aging process of the brain and nervous system.
In preclinical studies, unlike conventional magnesium supplements L-Threonate has delivered the impressive results.
Recommended daily intake
Children, teenagers and adults according to table under Ingredients push-botton on the right. Take capsule/s ½ hour before a meal on an empty stomach and swallow or put content in a drink.
74g = 60 VegeCaps à 75mg Magnesium L-threonate, ascorbyl palmitate.

one hundred crows
a crow reunion came upon me,
in the heat of an August day,
one hundred crows did gather,
in the river oak,
and in the leaning pine,
and in the old magnolia tree.
they came cawing, cawing,
in swirls of feathered flurry,
"To the ground!"
one called,
and at least a dozen followed,
to poach the field of wildflower seeds,
and others followed suit.
"To the telephones lines!"
one called,
and at least a dozen followed,
and set upon the lines
in some mystic randomness,
as if composing a harmony
of cawing notes in feathered ink
on lines of electronic conversations.
this noisy clan of cousin crows,
table hopped from tree to tree,
a few caws here among these crows,
a few caws there among those crows,
passing chattered bits of this and that,
back and forth,
about us and them,
this gathering of crows,
who seemed to be so much the same,
but in time, I learned each different name,
and then just when
it would never end,
they flew away,
these one hundred crows,
heading west,
and out of sight,
cawing as they went,
leaving me behind,
in the sizzling silence
of a hot and empty August day.
