An attempt by 200 swingers in Sweden to break the national record for group sex has been thwarted after a fire ripped through the nightclub that was due to host the steamy gathering.
Staff at Club Adam & Eva had been busy preparing the 30 square-metre bed and other practicalities for the orgy this weekend, but calamity struck on Sunday night when the blaze destroyed the club and a number of other businesses.
"I feel empty inside," one hostess told The Local, a Swedish news website. "There are no words to describe the loss. It meant a lot to us ."
Police are investigating the cause of the fire in the town of Norrkoping, 100 miles south-west of Stockholm. But the head of the swingers club, which has 2,000 members, said he thought it was unrelated to the record attempt? marking the club's 15th anniversary.
"It's just awful," he said. "The club is gone. The whole place has burned to the ground."

Rain Is Boring
The rain, the rain is a massive shame,
At first it was new, exciting, when the days were few,
Clearing the dirt, dust and humidity from the air,
But now, it's a bore to be fair.
The power's down, the trek to the foodstore,
Seems so much longer than ever before,
The trek across the rainy street, it's torturous for me,
Feels like a climb up Everest, you see.
We can't boil the kettle, or turn on the light,
And when there's a bump we all get a fright,
The cat gets to sleep, lucky for him,
It gives me a headache with the ...

Operations Dept. Seminar-Kevin Shang
Speaker(s): Kevin Shang -Duke University
Date & Time: Friday, Nov. 20, 2015 from 9 a.m. to 10:30 p.m.
This paper considers an entrepreneurial rm that periodically orders inventory to satisfy demand in a nite horizon. The rm oers trade credit to its customer while receiving one from its supplier. In addition to standard inventory-related costs, cash-related costs are incurred in each period. The cash-related cost is composed of a default penalty cost due to a cash shortage and an interest gain (negative cost) due to excess cash after inventory payments. The objective is to obtain an inventory policy that maximizes the working capital at the end of the horizon. We show that this problem is equivalent to that of minimizing the total inventory related cost and the cash-related cost in the horizon. The model with ample cash reduces to the traditional inventory model. For the general model, we prove that a state-dependent policy is optimal. To facilitate implementation and reveal insights, we consider a simplied model in which a myopic policy is optimal. A numerical study suggests that the myopic policy is eective for the original system. The myopic policy generalizes the classic base-stock policy and resembles practical working capital management under which rms make inventory decisions according to their working capital status. The policy parameters have closed-form expressions, which show the impact of demand and cost parameters on the inventory decision. Our study assesses the value of considering nancial ows when the rm makes the inventory decision and reveals insights that are consistent with empirical ndings in the literature.

CARLSBAD, Calif., (March 12, 2007) – Unbound Energy Drink-backed Chad Reed (San Manuel/Yamaha), the 2004 AMA Supercross Series champion, continued his quest to regain the overall supercross class title, this past weekend scoring his tenth-straight podium finish of the 2007 supercross season.
Reed, who dominated his heat race (No. 2), winning going away, ran into some trouble off the starting line in the main event and wound up coming around after the first lap in a very uncharacteristic 8th place.
The Aussie would buckle down, however, and began picking off the world's greatest supercross racers on his way to the podium, felling former Supercross Lites champions Tim Ferry and Grant Langston, along with perennial front runners Kevin Windham and Michael Byrne on his way towards the front of the pack.
"I dug myself a hole early that was tough to get out of," said Reed. "I actually felt good, rode pretty well and was able to make it back to the podium. Looking forward to racing in Orlando this weekend and trying to put the Unbound Energy Drink-backed San Manuel Yamaha up on top of the podium again."
Noteworthy: Reed's Unbound Energy Drink-backed teammate Nathan Ramsey suffered an injury this past week during practice that has him on the sidelines indefinitely.
Next up for Unbound Energy's Reed is Round 11 of the 2007 Amp'd Mobile AMA Supercross Series at Orlando's Citrus Bowl (March 17th).

You can't make stuff like this up. I wonder if he had refused to leave, would they have called 911 and asked for responding LEOs to disarm before coming in.
I think Mr. Mallar, the vote warden, needs looser skivvies.

That was unbelievable! I might be wrong, but I think that Wayne Mallar is a moron
"The Second Amendment: America's Original Homeland Security"
I guess it all comes down to what the voting law in Mass actually says on the matter, and also what the law allows LEOs that it doesn't allow the rest of us. Probably, there is a conflict between what it says in one section of the code and what it says in a different section.
Before I call the official names, I'd at least want to know what the rules really are. There might actually not be wiggle room. There are lots of laws that make no sense.
According to the "Maine" AG, there is no state law prohibiting LE from carrying while voting.
ETA: Very few non carry laws apply to on duty uniformed LE.

I'm speechless. I'm losing faith in humanity.
Exodus 22:2 "If a thief is caught breaking in and is struck so that he dies, the defender is not guilty of bloodshed"
I have been in situations before where voting wardens have made statements that turned out not to be true. It might have been better if the LEO had arrested the warden on the grounds that he failed to obey a direct order of a LEO, then cuffed him, threw him in the back seat of his cruiser and then voted. I have found wardens to be poorly trained and in many cases old and infirm. Many are political hacks and wanabees or given warden jobs by precinct captains as political payoffs.
I wonder which route the police will take if Mr. Mallar calls 911 for assistance at his home...though Florida?

Well, he does have a point. If there were open carriers at every polling station, none of the gun-scared people would dare approach to vote.....................

On duty LEO refused entry to vote due to being armedSome temporarily-elected idiots take their power trips way, way too far. Which is why I wish the basic statutes in every state had serious, severe "teeth" when it comes to gross malfeasance, negligence or abuses. This sort of thing is, essentially, denying a major part of every citizen's rights with citizenship.A Bangor police officer says he wasn't allowed to cast his ballot when an election warden refused to let him vote while wearing his service revolver.

And, uh, is the LEO actually allowed to vote while on duty? I know my employer, Uncle, did not give time off for voting. We'd always get a memo directing us to vote outside work hours or clock out and use annual leave.
There may be some departments who specificlly prohibit voting while on duty, but I suspect not with most departments if you clear it with the desk prior.
Again, I am open to enlightenment on any of the foregoing.

I believe Mr Mallar was misinterpreting and/or over-emphasizing his authority. WHAT SAFETY ISSUE IS HE REFERRING TO? I guess in the next election Mr Mallar will close down the nearby streets in fear of a runaway car crashing into people while they vote?
From the news article:
Mallar told the paper he wouldn't comment other than to say he has the right to make determinations about safety.

Hello -
It's been a long time since I posted on here. Well, the title says it all. We went through our 2nd IVF and transferred 2 embryos, 1 blast and 1 morula. Today is 8dp5dt and I POAS with a Clearblue Digital. BFN. Tomorrow is my beta test (blood) with my RE.
I am sitting at my desk trying not to cry. It feels hopeless, but a couple of websites have suggested that all is not lost, and that plenty of people have a negative HPT the day before getting a positive beta.
Has anyone had the same experience?
Mama to my monkey since March 2008, wife to my husband since February 2004. After three early losses, we were successful with IVF!
im sorry to hear this. what was your beta today?
Hi Sly:
This happens a lot, I have read. I hope your beta goes well. It is still really early for a pee test to detect hcg.
Mom to DS 12/07 and DD 11/13, plus a bunch of chickens, dogs, and cats.
Moving past many years of infertility and always thinking of my friends in the infertility forums.

The face which always seems to be lined with a huge smile this time carried a grimace as the little Ethiopian, attempting to become the first man to win five successive world track titles, battled over the line for a bronze medal behind his compatriot, Assefa Mezgebu, and new Kenyan champion, Charles Kamathi.
For the Kenyans, it was a night of joy after they had finally got the better of the man who has tormented them for so long. Yet for the rest of the athletics world, there was nothing but astonishment at seeing Gebrselassie, unbeaten at any distance over 5,000m for five years, looking positively mortal at last.
For this had proved a hurdle too high for even the 15-times world record breaker. Attempting what no other runner in history has achieved - to win a major title on his season's debut, not having raced anywhere for 11 months since his Sydney Olympic triumph - the defeat raised questions over whether the heel operation he underwent last November may have somehow taken an edge off his incomparable brilliance.
Gebrselassie had another explanation, though. Afterwards, he said he hadn't had trouble with his tendon but had been struck down with a high fever on Sunday, with a temperature of 39 degrees, and had only started feeling a bit better on Monday. But he had nothing but praise for Kamathi, who will always be known as the man who beat the man.
"This gentleman did a wonderful job," he told his conqueror, still managing to rediscover that big smile. "What could I do? It hasn't happened for a long time. I tried with all my effort, had confidence that I would win but I was shocked over the last 100 metres."
In a magnificent race, full of surges and lulls and featuring the sight of three Kenyans working as a team to make life as uncomfortable as possible for the comeback man and his three Ethiopian minders, Gebrselassie, cheered on by a contingent of his flag-waving compatriots, looked ominously comfortable until the race reached its business end with nine still in the hunt - three Kenyans, four Ethiopians and two Spaniards.
Yet, moving through to the front on the inside of the final back straight with about 250m left, Gebrselassie spurted for home and, though pursued closely by Mezgebu and Kamathi, everyone expected to see the Ethiopian's old smooth gear change off the final bend. It never materialised as Kamathi, a pencil thin 23-year-old who had won this year's Kenyan championship in the fastest ever time recorded at altitude, stormed round on the outside and left him floundering with a remarkable final sprint.
Kamathi, a constable in the Kenyan police force, covered the last 200 metres in 24.7seconds - even Gebrselassie has never run that fast - to win on a cool evening in an otherwise relatively sedate 27min 53.25sec. Mezgebu, who gave a disbelieving glance as he also went past his team-mate, clocked 27:53.97, and Gebrselassie 27:54.41.
Extraordinarily, on the night everyone expected to see Gebrselassie make history, that honour went instead to Lars Riedel, the German discus giant. His supremacy had appeared to have been ended when he lost his world and Olympic titles over the last two years, but he reemerged tonight at 34 to win his fifth gold - and sixth medal in all - with a new championship record of 69.72m. He joins Sergey Bubka as the only athlete ever to have won medals at six consecutive championships.
While Gebrselassie will have to wait and recover before attempting to restore his era of dominance, Jones took no time in taking the first successful steps on the road to regaining her kingdom as she breezed into tonight's 200m semifinals.
Looking relaxed and quite unfazed following the shock of losing her 42-race unbeaten streak in the 100m final on Monday night, Jones did not have to extend herself to win her heat in 22.70sec and qualify as second fastest behind her US compatriot, Kelli White, who clocked 22.65sec. "I came out to put on a good show for everyone. I'm ready to get gold this time," she told the crowd afterwards.
Kamathi's win followed more Kenyan celebrations as Reuben Kosgei added the world steeplechase title to the Olympic crown he won last year, but Canada's hopes of avoiding the fate of becoming the first host nation to fail to win a gold medal at a championships were completely dashed when their high jumper Mark Boswell could only finish seventh behind victorious German Martin Buss, who cleared 2.36m, and discus hope Jason Tunks couldn't even make the last eight.
Moroccan Nezha Bidouane comprehensively regained the women's 400m hurdles title she last won four years ago in Athens with the fastest time in the world this year, 53.34sec.

steps to start a trust account at your bank in PA
In general, no. Your question is missing some important details about your current circumstances, (trust creator alive/deceased; property transfer pending from the trust to a third party, etc), so precision can not be provided in the answer. In most circumstances, the revocable living trust does not have to registered in the court house. One of the benefits of a revocable living trust is in fact the privacy it affords the family. There are a couple of exceptions. If the trust creator has passed away, the PA Inheritance Tax return will reflect that a trust was in place, and a copy must be filed. This copy, however, can be sealed from public inspection and only be made available to the Department of Revenue (who does have a right to review the Trust, but they don't make it publically available). Further, if you transfer PA real estate into the trust, then the trust needs to be filed to claim the PA Realty Transfer Tax exemption, but again privacy measures can be used to make sure that it isn't filed or inspected locally, but instead it is forwarded to the Department of Revenue to assure that the trust qualifies for the Transfer Tax Exemption, after which they will either return the trust or destroy the copy sent, if you follow their procedures. The two above filings are usually made at the courthouse, but don't require the trust to be registered or filed for public inspection at the courthouse.

The device is particularly adapted for use in the medical field for control of the supply of liquids other than orally with respect to the body of a patient.
For example, in intravenous feeding, liquids are administered through a needle introduced into a vein. Further at times, in the treatment of diseases, solutions are introduced in concentrated form locally at the site of the diseased condition. other situations may call for the infusion or introduction of liquids in the body of a patient such as well known to the medical profession. Such infusion is necessary or desirable flow rate of the liquid is known and prescribed by the doctor must be held at the desired rate and controlled or regulated for a substantial period of time. Typically, the flow is a relatively small one at a pressure rate which usually would be quite low as described more in detail hereinafter.
Typically, the problem exists of giving a patient a certain volume of fluid over a period of six, eight, twelve, or twenty four hours in the usual amount of about 1,000 ccs of fluid. The rate must be monitored, since the body reserve over a prescribed amount is only about twenty percent. That is to say, twenty percent more than the prescribed amount might prove seriously injurious or even fatal to the patient. Therefore, a ten percent change is extreme over the prescribed rate. As the rate or amount of fluid injected increases, the venous pressure tends to rise and so does the diastolic pressure.
Experience indicates that approximately onethird of the nurses time is expended in adjusting the flow rate of the flow controller. Since this occurs on each shift, a considerable amount of the nurses time is thereby saved if the flow rate does not vary sufficiently to require constant attention and adjustment. In practice, the intravenous bottle is suspended a sufficient distance above a patient so that the difference in pressure drop due to the lowering level of the fluid in the bottle during the transfusion or injection is inconsequential. It is noted that the distance the fluid level lowers is generally only a distance of about five inches. The resulting drop in pressure head is generally less than a ten percent drop. For example at 180 ccs of fluid in a bottle and the bottle 6 feet about the patient's heart, a drop of as much as 6 inches would amount to less than a ten percent drop in the head of pressure.
With conventional commercial installations, the drop varies from manufacturer to manufacturer; and whereas some equipment yields drops per cubic centimeter of fluid, others yield 22 drops per cubic centimeter. Also, the fluid level varies depending upon the amount of fluid remaining in the bottle.
With respect to the fibrous or porous flow controller as described herein, the higher the column, the lower degree of pressure difference between the delivery when the bottle is full and when the bottle is empty. That is, if the bottle can be raised to eight feet above the heart level of the patient, it is so much the better. It is desirable to keep the difference in pressure from full to empty bottle to approximately one to two percent.
A primary object of the invention is to realize and make available a flow controller which will meet and solve the problem described in the foregoing paragraphs, and more specifically, one which will not re-' quire monitoring by the nurse, but rather one which will dependably deliver the fluid consistently at a rate within specifications as set out. Realization of this objective contemplates provision of a controller which is not adjustable that will provide dependably a set flow rate and does not require monitoring by the nurse.
A further object is to provide a controller as described taking the form of a member having a through bore and made of an appropriate material, such as ceramic having the required characteristics.
A further object of the invention is to provide and make available a control device or flow rater as described having the necessary characteristics to adapt it to the service described above and particularly, that it will be capable of metering a controlled, uniform flow of liquid at a low rate for a long period of time.
A further object is to provide a simple, nonadjustable flow rater for conventional intravenous systems which will permit flow of for example 42, 83, or cc per hour.
Another object is to provide and make available a flow rater which enables the user to make adjustments in flow rates in the area of 42, 83, and 125 cc per hour of flow. More specifically, an object is to provide such a flow rater using a tubular ceramic filter element as a resistance means, the device providing mechanism to be able to vary the effective length of the tubular element. A more specific object is to provide such a flow rater wherein two resistance materials are provided in a flow rater in series, one of them having a very uniform characteristic and the other being variable by being subjected to pressure.

- DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 shows a 0.12 micron ceramic filter 14 in a plastic holder 10. Ceramic filters as manufactured by Flowtronics are made in cylindrical shape as shown in various lengths for product uniformity reasons. In the flow rater shown, one end of the filter is plugged at 16 by a plug of suitable material, and the drug-carrying solution is forced to flow into open end 17 of the filter and through the side walls. Thus, the filter area becomes the inside circumference of the cylinder times the filter length, A =cl. However, c is fixed by the manufacturer. Thus, the flow rate is determined by the filter length only. The tubular filter material is fitted within an assembly of molded polyethylene or similar material comprising tube 20 and standard medical male and female luer fittings 22 and 24 fitted together as shown.
The incoming fluid containing the desired drug comes in at high pressure (530 to 600 mm hg) and drops to a lower arterial blood pressure (90 mm hg) through the filter material. Since the filter material is linear, that is, the flow rate through the filter is linearly proportional to the pressure differential between the two sides of the filter, the flow rate permitted by the flow rater is proportional only to the filter area available to transmit flow. Mathematically, F KA (Pin Pout). Since Pin out is fixed and k is fixed by filter material choice (in this case, 0.12 micro ceramic filters manufactured by Flowtronics, Inc. it is left only to adjust the filter area to get the desired flow rate.
To choose appropriate lengths and filter porosities, a test set up as in FIG. 2 may be used. Balloon 30, valve 32, and flow rater are set in their usual configuration, but instead of connecting to a catheter or needle, it connects to a tube 34 leading to a column of water 36. The water column height is chosen to be 48.2 in (l,224 mm) which produces a pressure of 1,224 mm water (90 mm hg) or arterial pressure. To the pressure generator and flow rater, the column of water is equivalent to a human venous system. The feed tube (0.035 I.D. polyethylene tubing) and graduated bottle (10 cc syringe barrel) were used and were large enough to not restrict flows or cause a considerable pressure drop at these low flow rates. Using this system, the data generated is shown in FIG. 3.
FIG. 2 also illustrates a typical installation or set-up including infusion means 33 adapted for insertion into the human body.
Since a 0.40 length is long enough to be manufacturable easily and that 0.01 in manufacturing length errors do not cause a significant error in flow rate (only 0.01/0.40 2.5 percent), this material was chosen. If a low standard porosity filter material manufactured by Flowtronics, such as 0.10 micron is used, then the filter would be lengthened and thus lengthen the overall product making it more cumbersome to the user and more fragile (although this might be a reasonable second choice material). If a 0.27 micron or 0.8 micron filter material were chosen, the filter element would become extremely short (about IIS and 1/50 as long, respectively) resulting in flow raters which were shorter but extremely sensitive to manufacturing error.
Once the desired filter material is chosen and kc (material constant times inside circumference) is fixed, it becomes an easy matter to use the curve as shown in FIG. 3 to choose the desired curve to choose the desired filter length- Running a horizontal line at the desired flow rate (1 cc per hour) until it intersects the flow line and then read downward, it is found that the 0.12 micron filter should be 0.40 inch long. Once this dimension is found, the remainder of the flow raters dimensions are chosen simply to allow adequate flow in and out of the filter to avoid interferring with or damaging the filter and to fit standard luer (medical connector) dimensions into which the rater must fit.
With a standard intravenous bottle hung at 72 inches above the patients heart and assuming that the flow raters back pressure is neglectible (venous pressure is very low relative to a pressure of 72 inches of water), a test stand using a standard McGaw 500 ml intravenous bottle and McGaw No. V I.V. set can be arranged similar to FIGS. 2 and 5.
Using the graduations on the bottle and a watch to measure flow rate, filter elements of various lengths can be tested for flow rates they permit. Using this data, a flow rate curve similar to the one appearing in FIG. 3 for the balloon and 0.12 micron filter element can be generated.
When the desired flow rates are known, the desired lengths are easily found. The 0.8 micron filter material was selected because it is the highest porosity of Flowtronics standard filter material. If the lower porosity, 0.27 micron filter material were chosen, the resulting filter element would be roughly ten times longer which would result in an undesirably long flow rater. If a slightly lower porosity filter material were developed by Flowtronics, a new slightly longer filter element length could be found. This might be desirable because the 0.19 length is slightly short but acceptable. If a higher porosity material became available, the filter lengths could be adjusted shorter accordingly.
Once the filter length is selected including the plug length, the remainder of the flow rater dimensions are designed to house the filter and allow unrestricted flow in and out of the filter.
The following describes the approaches undertaken to give some adjustability to the flow as described. The primary advantage of ceramic materials as made by Flowtronics is uniformity. However, this property negates adjustability of the ceramic material short of filters with adjustable effective element lengths which can be done as illustrated in FIG. 4. Body 40 has extending nozzle part or luer 42. It has bore 44 and bore 46 in the nozzle part. It has external threads 45 to receive internally threaded knob 50 having bore 52 and threaded counterbore 54. Numeral 60 indicates the tubular ceramic filter element. Body 40 has internal flange 64 which seals to element 60, the end of which is closed by plug 68. Only the part of element 60 beyond the sealing flange is effective to control flow, which is adjustable by turning knob 50.
As pointed out in the foregoing, a primary objective.
is to make available a flow controller for controlled rates of flow which is readily capable of having fine adjustments made in the flow rate. Basically, the controller of the preferred form of the invention embraces the concept of having two flow resistances in series so that an advantage can be taken of the desirable positive qualities of each. The first resistance is in the form of a ceramic filter, fixed length and density. This element may be one which is readily commercially available.
Specifically, the material of this resistance is chosen for its high resistance, chemical stability, large pore size, and its filter-to-filter batch-to-batch uniformity. In typically available commercial materials, uniformity can be expected to be no worse than percent of the flow rate.
The desired filter element lengths may be determined experimentally by supplying known pressure to a filter element of known length and then measuring the flow rate through the filter. It was found that in the case of the 0.010 micron ceramic material pressure of 47 inches of water produced a flow rate of 299 cc/hour for every inch of element. Thus, for any specific flow rate in ccs per hour taken pressure the length of the filter can be readily calculated.
It can be pointed out that for the first resistance, any filter material can be used, although materials as described have preferred characteristics. Filters made of uniform ceramic material are preferred so that advantage can be taken of the uniformity.
The second element in the series is a low density pressure drop unit. Low density material is necessary because it is to be expected that there will be considerable uniformity in acceptable materials for this element. If this material were twice its desired density, the element supplies only 5 percent of the total pressure drop through the flow controller and only 5 percent will be introduced into the overall system. Thus, a 100 percent nonuniforrnity produces a 5 percent error in the flow controller acceptable level.
The preferred material in the second element is polyurethane foam, although it could be polyethylene or other comparable material. Any relatively uniform, non-wettable, chemically inert, compressible material may be used. Some further examples ofmaterials which can be used include plastic, rubber, paper (cellulose), of chemical fibers, electrostatically charged or chargable particles, or possibly fragments of any inert, slightly compressible material such as plastic spheres. However, for handling convenience, foam type material is preferred.
Properties of plastic foams and fibrous material include typically low pressure drop flow rate constants; hence, it takes a great thickness of fiberous material to get the same properties as the ceramic and extreme sensitivity to changing through flow rate properties with compression as well as manufacturing variations. Thus, it is practical to use the ceramic filter for gross fixed flow rating and fibrous material for fine adjustments.
Polyethylene foam is preferred because it is easy to handle, inexpensive, and can be made in a desired thickness. A particular foam density will give a 5 to 10 percent change in flow rate with varying compression on the foam. The ceramic filter length is the same as nonadjustable units except it is roughly two percent longer to make up for the pressure drop through the polyethylene foam.
The series resistances can be set up in various ways. The preferred embodiment or set up is shown in FIGS. 6 through 8, and modified forms are shown in FIGS. 9, 10, I1, and 12. In the typical preferred embodiment, only one of the resistances in series has adjustable flow resistance. That is the low density nonuniform one. In each form of the invention, means are provided to slowly or variably compress the foam material to variably control its resistance.
In FIG. 6, there is provided a cylindrical or tubular body 74 having internal threads as shown at 76. At one end, there is formed nozzle fitting for male luer 77. F itting into the opposite end of body 74 is a cylindrical plug 78 having an end knob 80. The plug has a part 82 of smaller diameter which fits into the end of cylindrical body 74. Part 82 does not have internal screw threads. The cylindrical part of the plug is sealed by an O-ring 84 which fits into complementary annular grooves in the end of body 74 and in part 82 of plug 78. Plug 78 has a bore 86 and a larger counterbore 88 which forms a female luer to receive a connecting tube 90.
The bore within body 74 has an end taper 92 adjacent to luer 77. In this end part of body 74, there is provided one of the flow resistance materials which may preferably be a polyurethane foam as designated at 96. Adjacent to this resistance material is a threaded disc 98 as may be seen in FIG. 7 which has a plurality of axial ports 100 in it and a square center bore 102. Numeeral 104 designates the filter element which is not adjustable and which preferably is in the form of a ceramic tube as shown, one end of which fits into a counterbore 106 in the end part of plug 78. At the other end of tubular filter element 104 is a disc 108 having an extending square stem 110 which fits into square bore 102 into threaded disc 98.
As may be seen from the foregoing, the two filter element resistance elements are in series in the same sense that electrical resistances may be in series, one of them being adjustable. Knob 80 of plug 78 may be turned, and this may be done by the nurse. This rotates the threaded disc 98, causing it to move axially to thus adjust the pressure on foam 96 to thereby adjust and control its resistance to flow. FIG. 5 illustrates a typical utilization of the flow controller or the flow rater. Typically, it attaches to a needle adapted for insertion into a patients vein, and the flow controller is connected by tube 122 to a suspended bottle 124 of intravenous feeding liquid for example which feeds by gravity. In use, the rate of flow is prescribed by the doctor, and this rate can readily be reduced to a rate in terms of drops per minute, for example. A nurse, using a watch, can readily check the drops per minute which will feed through the flow rater. Then, she can easily adjust knob 80 on plug 78 to provide for the prescribed flow rate. Therefore as may be seen, the device provides a flow controller which is readily adjustable by the nurse and takes full advantages of the capabilities of the extremely uniform, ceramic filter material while providing for fine adjustments in flow by the capability of adjusting the pressure on the polyurethane filter material. Because of the linear flow characteristic of this material, the adjustment can readily be made to achieve the desired flow rate.
FIGS. 9 and 10 show a modified form of the invention using two flow resistance materials which are identified by the same reference numerals as FIG. 6. In these figures, there is a cylindrical body 120 having a nozzle end 122 forming a male luer. Body 120 has bore 124 with a taper 126 at the end. Luer 122 has a bore 128. At the end of body 120, there is a flange 132. Numeral 134 designates a cap member having an inturned flange 136 forming a bore of a size to be fitted over body 120 and to come flush against flange 132 on the body. Cap member 134 has a threaded bore 140 which receives a threaded end plug 142, the end part of which forms a knob 144. At the inner end of plug 142, there is a flange 150 which fits inside cap 134. It has external threads as shown which thread into threaded bore 140. Plug 142 has a bore 152 and a larger counterbore 154 adapted to receive a tubular connection. At the inner end of plug 142 it has a counterbore-l56. Received in this counterbore is tubular filter or flow resistance member 104. lnterposed between flange 132, body 120, and flange 150 on plug 142, there is a compressible sealing ring member 160.
At the end of flow resistance member 104 is a disc 162 having apertures in it as shown at 164. This disc presses against the compressible flow resistance material 96 which engages against taper 126. As may be seen from FIGS. 9 and 10, when the knob of threaded plug 142 is rotated, flange 150 pushes against the sealing ring, compressing it, and a flow resistance element 104 pushes against disc 162 which in turn pushes on the compressible material 96 causing its resistance .to be varied, making it possible to make fine adjustments in the flow rate of the unit as a whole.
FIGS. 11 and 12 show another modified form of the invention. In these figures, numeral 170 designates a tubular barrel having a bore 172 and a nozzle or luer end 174 with bore 176. Numeral 180 designates a knob part having a bore 182 which is shown schematically associated with the barrel part 170. This association may be like that of FIGS. 6 or 9. The tubular flow resistance element seats in a counterbore 184 in knob part 180 which has an annular groove or depression 186 at the bottom thereof. The end of the flow resistance, element 104 is closed by disc 190. Variable resistance material 96 is between this disc and taper 171 at the end of bore 172. Numeral 192 designates a circular element having holes 195 through it and bevel or slanting wedge surface 193, its flat end positioned against resistance material 96. Numeral 194 designates a threaded elementor screw having a head 196 and an end part 198 of smaller diameter which engages the top of a wedge member 199 having wedge surface 200 engaging surface 193. The wedge member is between element 192 and disc 190. Thus, by turning screw 194, wedge 199 can be caused to push down against surface 200 to urge element 192 against resistance material 96 to change its flow resistance characteristic by compression to thus change the overall resistance to flow through the unit as in the previous embodiments. Screw 194 makes it possible to make very fine adjustments in the flow resistance.
From the foregoing disclosure, those skilled in the art will readily understand the nature and the characteristics of the invention and the manner in which it achieves and realizes all of the objects as set forth in the foregoing.
The foregoing disclosure is representative of preferred forms of the invention and it is to be interpreted in an illustrative rather than a limiting sense, the invention to be accorded the full scope of the claims appended hereto.
What is claimed is:
1. A flow controller for controlling a small, slow flow of liquid comprising in combination: structure means forming a tubular body, said tubular body defining a longitudinal tubular cavity and having an inlet formed in one end and an outlet formed in its other end; a first flow resistance member tubularly shaped to fit within said tubular cavity in a spaced apart relationship from its inner peripheral wall, said first tubularly shaped flow resistance member being mounted at one end within said tubular cavity with one of its ends in communication with said inlet and its other end closed whereby liquid flowing into said inlet flows into said tubular cavity by passing through the flow restriction defined by the portion of the tubular wall of said first flow resistance member extending into said tubular cavity, said first flow resistance member being made of a material having a fixed resistance to flow characteristic; a second flow resistance member mounted within said tubular cavity across said outlet so that liquid flowing into said tubular cavity through said first flow resistance member must pass through said second flow resistance member to flow out said outlet, said second flow resistance member being made of a resilient compressible material having a resistance to' flow characteristic which varies directly with its compression; and means for selectively compressing said second flow resistance member for selectively controlling and adjusting the flow of liquid through said flow controller.
2. A flow controller as in claim 1, wherein the density of the material making up said second flow resistance member is substantially less even when compressed than the material making up said first flow resistance member whereby selective compression of said second flow resistance member operates to make a fine adjustment in the flow rate through said flow controller.
3. A flow controller as in claim 1, wherein said means for selectively compressing said second flow resistance member is formed by making said body a threaded adjustable member which is movable axially to compress said second flow resistance member.
4. a flow controller as in claim 1, wherein said means for selectively compressing said second flow resistance member comprises means positioned to be radially adjustable with respect to said body for compressing the material making up said second flow resistance member.
5. A flow controller for controlling a small, slow flow of liquid and having the capability of making fine adjustments in the resistance to flow comprising, in combination: a body defining a channel therethrough, a first flow resistance material having uniform flow resistance characteristics positioned within said channel so that liquid flowing therein passes through said first flow resistance material; a second flow resistance material in said body arranged and positioned in said channel for a series flow through the two resistance materials, said second resistance material having an adjustable flow resistance characteristic; and means for selectively adjusting the resistance characteristic of said second flow resistance material for selectively controlling and adjusting the flow of liquid through said flow controller, the density of said second flow resistance material being substantially less than said first flow resistance material even when adjusted to provide greatest flow resistance whereby selective adjustment of the resistance characteristic of said second resistance material operates to make a fine adjustment in the flow rate through said flow controller.
6. A flow controller for controlling a small, slow flow of liquid and having the capability of making fine adjustments in the resistance to flow comprising, in com bination: a body defining a channel therethrough, a first flow resistance material having uniform flow resistance characteristics positioned within said channel so that liquid flowing therein passes through said first flow resistance material; a second flow resistance material in said body arranged and positioned in said channel for a series flow through the two resistance materials, said second resistance material having an adjustable flow resistance characteristic; and means for selectively adjusting the resistance characteristic of said second flow resistance material for selectively controlling and adjusting the flow of liquid through said flow controller, said second flow resistance material being a resilient compressible material and having a resistance to flow characteristic which varies directly with its compression and said means for selectively adjusting the resistance characteristic of said second flow resistance material being operable to apply compressive force to said second material for the purpose of making fine adjustments in its resistance characteristic, the density of said second flow resistance material being substantially less even when compressed than said first flow resistance material whereby selective compression of said second flow resistance material operates to make a fine adjustment in the flow rate through said flow controller.
7. A flow controller as in claim 6, wherein said means for selectively adjusting the resistance characteristic of said second flow resistance material comprises axial adjustable threaded means capable of being rotated relatively for applying axial compressive force to said second material.
8. A flow controller as in claim 6, wherein said means for selectively adjusting the resistance characteristic of said second flow resistance material comprises means within said body positioned to be movable radially for applying pressure to said second material and means for adjusting said radially movable means to make fine adjustments in the flow resistance of said second material.

Sin was something I knew everything about.
My parents called me sinful.
The people in the carriage to the convent called me sinful.
The nuns called me sinful.
The Reverend Mother called me sinful.
People who heard I'd fled from the convent called me sinful.
There was hardly anyone who didn't call me sinful in this world.
In truth, it was them. They were the sinful ones. People call others sinful to hide from their own sin. They think that if they can spot out sin in the crowd, God will change their mind about them. Forgive them for their own sins, even if they skip mass every other week. I knew who the sinful people were. It was them.
My parents, first off. My mother constantly engaged in adultery and my father was constantly jealous. But Mother was the sinful one. Had she not been a bad person to the bone, father would never have been jealous.
The people in the coach knew nothing at all of my sinfulness. Father put me on the couch and never looked back at me. Of course the people would think I was sin itself. But I knew better. I saw a lady who stole a man's purse. I saw a rather shadowy figure who was clearly hiding from someone else in the coach. Clearly there was some sort of sin both were engaged in. I saw a young man who said filthy words to a lady who was sitting next to him.
They were sinful people. Not I. I was only supposedly a changeling.
Then I came to the convent. The nuns seemed at first to be the best people in the world, until I grew up to the age of 12 and was called to the Reverend Mother's office. The nuns inspected me, then beat me and touched me. It happened several times. Sometimes I heard of it happening to other girls. Nobody spoke about it, but it was there. Sometimes, when I crept through the convent at nighttime, hoping to steal something from the kitchen to still my gnawing hunger, I heard groups of grown-up nuns doing it to each other. It disgusted me. That was sin.
I finally got my hands on books when I was 14. The nuns threw away all the gift books they recieved, but I knew where they were. I mended them and read them from cover to cover. I learned from them of the behaviour of the nuns. I learned of the relationships between man and woman. I learned of children, I learned Latin, I learned Hebrew and Greek. I learned of art, of music. I learned that there was a world outside the convent walls. I learned how to escape.
The Reverend Mother discovered my books. She had me burn each and every one of them. Then she put me in the Nook. But I was prepared. I had gathered all of my things and I had learned how to unlock the nook from the inside. I stole every fine thing I could find and carry and ran.

Vista saves the day!
After nearly a 15 hour marathon of setting up my new PC, Vista finally prevailed over XP and saved my day!
First a recap. I've been planning to assemble together a new PC to complement my current rig, an old but reliable 478'er Prescott (haha). After nearly a year of skimping and saving, I managed to buy the components piece by piece and finally, yesterday, I took the big leap. Here's the rig specs:
Intel Core2Duo E4500 = RM 380
2 x 1GB Corsair Twin2X DDR2 = RM250
Sapphire HD3870 = RM 660
Silverstone Strider ST56F = RM 320
Seagate 7200.10 320GB = RM 230
Encloxure Shinobi SH09A = RM 140
Total = RM 2305
I started the assembling all the components at 9, after a good night's sleep, and finished it at 12, after some mishaps :(. So anyways, with the board POST'ed up, I proceeded to install XP SP2 on it, but the snag came at installing ATI's Catalyst driver, where I tried not only with the provided drivers, but also their latest 8.3 and 8.2 versions, all of which caused XP to BSOD itself upon loading. Wasted around 12 hours trying to get it work, in the end, I tried Vista.
And lo and behold! Catalyst 8.3 installed perfectly on Vista, giving me 4.4 on the Windows Experience Index, plus giving me my first taste of the Windows Aero theme, and I must say, god damn, it's beautiful. Definitely didn't expect to see Vista actually making me go over the moon in happiness, considering the amount of bad rep I've been exposed to of it, but I'll say, it ain't that bad after all!
Anyways, retiring for a good rest first, before proceeding to play around more with my new rig.
EDIT: I'm selling off my new D-Link KVM switch, since it can't support my keyboard well. Any local readers interested? :P

2012 People's Pick Winner: This system features "his and hers" music controls for dual DVRs, Pandora, XM Radio and iTunes. See this entry.
Because the home is nearly 100 years old, a comprehensive Crestron RF lighting system with more than 100 switches was used to minimize any impact to the home's construction.
The client can control the system with eight wireless and eight in-wall touch panels. In addition, two fully functional iPads can control any room in the home.
The highlight of the music system is the custom Sonance Landscape speaker system with 16 satellite speakers and two buried subwoofers.
This home is primarily white, but the home system features DMX-controlled LED lighting to give an interesting and adjustable color enhancement. See this entry.
The owner of this system wanted something simple. Video, sound, lighting and communication controls can all be managed through an iPad and iPhone. See this entry.
This system is located at the owner's beach apartment. Since many guests will visit the property, the system is very user-friendly. See this entry.
This house system features not just lighting, audio and video control in every room, but temperature and voice control, too. See this entry.
In addition to audio and video features throughout the house, this system has a full security system that the owner can monitor remotely. See this entry.
Before this project started, the owners had more than 20 remotes throughout the house. Now, all equipment is centrally located and distributed. See this entry.
At night, one button turns off all the lights in the house, closes garage doors, arms the alarm, turns music off in any rooms, turns off TVs and sets back the temperature for sleeping. See this entry.
This system features a full array of streaming music sources such as Internet FM, Pandora, Sirius, Rhapsody and Spotify services. See this entry.
This system controls mechanical services like the electric hot water boiler and the hot water secondary pump, which removes the need for additional wall switches. See this entry.
This system features eight zones of distributed audio, five video displays, phone and intercom systems and a full home theater. See this entry.
From six exterior IP video surveillance cameras to pool and water features controls, this system has almost every conceivable technology system available. See this entry.
This system distributes audio and video via HDMI switching and fiber distribution. See this entry.
This system comprises standalone subsystems, interconnected and integrated through a Crestron control umbrella. This approach enables other subcontractors to perform their specialized trades to the best of their ability and gives the homeowner a simple, intuitive interface to control the home. See this entry.
It's a daily ritual now for the homeowners of this system to prep the house before coming home in the evening. All of the home's functions can be controlled from their iPad. See this entry.
The challenge for this system was integrating current technology into a home that is more than 100 years old without having the technology look out of place. See this entry.
This home was was so big that the client requested a building management system instead of a more traditional residential system. See this entry.
Touch panels, iPads and computers show the real time status of home systems on a floor plan view of the home. See this entry.
More than 40 speakers and several subterranean subwoofers were used to provide excellent exterior sound over this home's two-acre rear landscape. See this entry.
In addition to many traditional controls such as lighting, audio and video, this system features towel warmers and underwater audio. See this entry.
This system features a combintation of 32 indoor and outdoor audio zones as well as nine video zones with HD and Blu-ray abilities. See this entry.
Every home control is on this system from emergency water-shutoff to the client's FedEx drop box at the front gate. See this entry.
A combination of AMX touch panels, iPads, iPhones and RF remote controls operate lighting, motorized shading, temperature, pool/spa operation, security, surveillance, music, video and a spectacular home theater system. See this entry.
To control this system, there are 18 iPads, seven in-wall control panels and every television has Savant TrueCommand. See this entry.

OK, pros and cons:
*It's a camera, the quality is clearer than most vehicle cameras I've used. (external video in stereo system is used)
*The tv-out going to the motorola video jack in works
*It accepts the VDC from the car.
*The device doesn't seem to want to copy anything to my 8GB SD card, despite checking the thing with my pc. the card works.
*I never received the instruction manual, as so advertised.
*Shipping time was horrendous, three weeks shipping time. From Singapore.
Will be contacting seller for the owners manual, and to figure out why it's not making videos. Two stars.
