1. Field of the Invention
The invention relates to optical fiber communications systems, in particular systems using plastic or silica fiber having typical core diameters of 100 to 250 μm.
2. Discussion of the Related Art
Presently, the majority of optical fiber communication systems use silica-based fiber having typical core diameters of 62.5 μm or less. For such cores, the alignment tolerances are very small, e.g., 10 μm, when coupling a fiber to a device such as a transceiver. (Alignment tolerance indicates the allowable range of variation from the desired alignment position between device and fiber.) Thus, to achieve acceptable coupling efficiency, active alignment between the device and fiber is used. Active alignment involves, for example, placing a device and fiber adjacent one another, directing light from the device into the fiber, and measuring the output at the opposite end of the fiber. The relative positions of the device and/or fiber are adjusted until the output reaches acceptable levels, and then the coupling is secured, typically by a fast-curing adhesive or laser welding. Because such active alignment is complex, labor intensive, and expensive, passive alignment methods are preferred.
In passive alignment, a coupling structure is devised to provide adequate mechanical alignment between the device and fiber without any active alignment steps. Because passive alignment is usually feasible only for much higher alignment tolerances than found with typical silica-based telecommunications fiber, the technique is generally used only with large core fibers, e.g., 500 to 1000 μm diameters. Moreover, because the only economically viable fibers with such large core diameters exhibit relatively poor loss and bandwidth characteristics, such passively-aligned couplings are typically found only in very short distance, low data rate systems, e.g., 50 meter links using 1 mm conventional plastic optical fiber at bit rates of 100 Mbits/second or less. Also, it is difficult to couple such large core fibers to high speed (1 Gbit/sec or more) detectors, since such detectors typically have an active area only 150 mm in diameter or less. In addition, attempts to extend passive alignment techniques to smaller-core fibers are complicated by the fact that optoelectronic device manufacturers anticipate use of active alignment. Specifically, the configuration of active devices within their packages, i.e., the exact location of the device with respect to the exterior of the package, is often inconsistent. For these numerous reasons, attempts to use inexpensive passive alignment have been largely restricted to fibers with core diameter greater than 500 μm.
Recently, a new generation of relatively large core fibers with much higher bandwidths have been developed, including plastic optical fiber (generally graded-index perfluorinated fiber). These fibers have typical core diameters of 100 to 250 μm. This core size allows for higher alignment tolerances than typical silica-based telecommunications fiber, but still makes the fiber compatible with Gbit/sec detectors. Thus, improved, low cost alignment techniques suitable for providing acceptable properties with fibers having core diameters of 100 to 250 μm are desired.
The invention provides a system containing an adapter for passively aligning an active device such as a transceiver with an optical fiber having a 100 to 250 μm core, such that the resulting coupling is within alignment tolerances, and provides desired coupling efficiencies and bit rates. In one embodiment, reflected in FIG. 1, the system contains a packaged active device 10 having a window or a lens 12, an optical fiber 14 having a core 16 of a diameter ranging from 100 to 250 μm, and a fiber connector 18 attached to an end of the optical fiber such that a fiber endface 20 is provided. The system further contains an adapter 22 comprising a first receptacle 24 that secures the fiber connector and a second receptacle 26 that secures the packaged device, such that the device and the fiber endface are optically aligned. (Optically aligned indicates that light is able to travel from the fiber core to the device and vice versa.)
In a departure from the prior art, the exterior of the device package, in combination with the second receptacle, itself provides passive alignment within the adapter. And, in contrast to current passively-aligned systems, the system of the invention is able to achieve tolerances within 60 μm, optionally within 35 μm, i.e., the deviation from perfect alignment between the optical axis of the device and the center of the fiber core will be no more than 60 μm, or no more than 35 μm. Such tolerances make it possible to achieve, for example, a coupling efficiency of at least 50%, optionally at least 90%, in fiber having a 100 to 250 μm diameter core. It is also possible to achieve bit rates of 1 Gbit/sec or greater, and even as high as 10 Gbit/sec for some applications.
The adapter is designed to securely hold the package and fiber connector in an arrangement within alignment tolerances. It is possible to design the adapter using design guidelines for thermoplastic resins, such that the device package is able to be snap-fit, e.g., by use of conventional cantilever snap joints using flexural snap-fitting arms or by forming the adapter from a relatively compliant or elastomeric material that plastically deforms upon insertion of the device package. Alternatively, it is possible to use adhesive to secure the package. It is also possible to form the adapter around all or a portion of the packaged device, e.g., by placing a portion of the package into a mold and then filling the mold with the adapter material (thereby making at least a portion of the package integral with the adapter). The receptacle for accepting a fiber connector is designed for the particular connector of interest, which is similarly capable of being snap-fit or adhered. In practice, the active device and adapter will generally be pre-assembled prior to installation of a system, and the fiber will then be connected during the actual installation.
FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the invention.
FIG. 2 shows a TO-type can package for active devices.
FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the invention. A packaged active device 10 is provided. The device is generally a laser or a photodetector, although other active devices useful in optical communications systems are also possible.
The device is packaged by any conventional technique, including a TO-type can, as shown in FIG. 2. The TO-type can contains a header 30 on which the device 34 is placed, and a cap 32 set onto the header 30, as shown. In photonics applications, a lens or window is located in the package (shown as element 36 in the TO-type can of FIG. 2), to allow light to pass to or from the device.
In prior art devices, the cap and header typically are not fabricated to close tolerances, due to the anticipation that active alignment will be performed. Thus, the cap is often not centered on the header, and, in addition, the position of the cap on the header tends to vary from package to package. Without active alignment, this inconsistent positioning of the cap has the potential to substantially impair the performance of the system, by reducing the amount of light traveling between the device and an optical fiber. In the invention, it is therefore advantageous for devices packaged in TO-type or similar cans to have a matched head and cap assembly, meaning that that inner diameter a of the cap 32 is approximately equal to the diameter b of the header 30, i.e., within 50 μm. This close match provides consistency in the location of the lens or window 36, such that the properties of the overall system are impaired only slightly, if at all, by the package assembly itself. Other packages should similarly be formed to relatively consistent guidelines.
A key aspect of the invention is the adapter 22, used to optically align the active device with an optical fiber 14. The adapter 22 contains a first receptacle 24 for securing a fiber connector 18 and a second receptacle 26 for securing the active device package 10.
The second receptacle 26 in the adapter 22 is capable of being designed to accept any particular package configuration In particular, the exterior of the device package, in combination with the second receptacle, itself provides passive alignment within the adapter. The securing step for the packaged active device is performed by any of a variety of techniques. In one aspect, the adapter is formed from a relatively compliant or elastomeric material that plastically deforms upon insertion of the package, such that the deformed material holds the package securely in place. In another aspect, an adhesive is used to secure the package in the receptacle. In an alternative aspect, physical extensions from the package and/or receptacle secure the package, e.g., knobs, tension mechanisms, cantilever snap joints, etc.
Instead of placing the device package into a pre-formed adapter, it is possible to form the adapter around a portion of the package. For example, it is possible to place a packaged device into a mold, and then fill the mold with the adapter material, i.e., overmold the packaged device (thereby making the adapter integral with a portion of the packaged device). When such overmolding is performed, a pin is typically extended into the mold to cover and protect the lens or window of the device during the molding process. It is also possible to overmold a portion of a packaged device, and then assemble a further packaging component around the packaged device and/or a portion of the adapter. (Such overmolded adapters are also considered to have a second receptacle in which the active device package is secured, e.g., receptacle 26 in FIG. 1.)
Thermoplastic injection molding is suitable for manufacturing the adapter, when physical deformation or other mechanical techniques are used to secure the active device package 10 in the adapter 22. It is possible to use a variety of resins for such molding, including polycarbonate, polycarbonate and acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) blends, ABS alone, polyamide 6 (nylon), or thermoplastic polyurethane. When an overmolding technique is used with the adapter, a transfer molding process is typically used, e.g., with a thermoset epoxy molding compound. Other manufacturing techniques are also possible.
In practical application, the active device package is typically secured (e.g., inserted or overmolded) in the adapter prior to installation/assembly of the overall system. The optical fiber 14 is then typically installed on-site. The optical fiber 14 has a core 16 of a diameter of 100 to 250 μm, and is typically a plastic optical fiber (POF)—generally a perfluorinated graded-index POF, or a hard clad silica fiber. Such fibers are typically being used and/or considered for applications in local area networks, home networks, and inside communications equipment, typically at lengths ranging from several centimeters to 500 meters. Onto an end of the fiber is placed a fiber connector 18, for which the receptacle 24 in the adapter 22 is designed. And the connector 18 is then secured into the adapter 22 by any suitable technique. Conventional latches such as LC or SC connectors are possible, for example.
This passive alignment technique is able to provide alignment within acceptable tolerances to provide desirable coupling efficiency. The system of the invention is able to achieve tolerances within 60 μm, optionally within 35 μm, i.e., the deviation from perfect alignment between the optical axis of the device and the center of the fiber core will be no more than 60 μm, or no more than 35 μm. Such tolerances make it possible to achieve, for example, a coupling efficiency of at least 50%, optionally at least 90%, in fiber having a 100 to 250 μm diameter core. There is a trade-off between coupling efficiency and alignment tolerance, however. The higher the desired coupling efficiency, the lower the allowable alignment tolerance. And if a relatively low coupling efficiency is acceptable for a particular application, a high alignment tolerance is achieved.
Systems according to the invention, due in large part to the adapter, are able to achieve relatively high bit rates. Specifically, bit rates of at least 100 Mbits/sec are achievable, more typically rates of at least 1 Gbit/sec. Rates of at least 10 Gbit/sec are also possible, at least for short lengths, e.g., 100 m or less of perfluorinated graded index POF or for about 8 inches or less of step index silica fiber. Such rates are not attainable with previous passively-aligned systems, e.g., systems using fiber having a core diameter of 500 μm or more, since such fiber cannot be practically coupled to high speed detectors.
To obtain higher coupling efficiency or a higher alignment tolerance, it is useful to select a particular window or lens for use with the active device. Typically, the window or lens is provided in the active device package, in which case it is possible to have a hermetically sealed device. But it is also possible for the window or lens to be located elsewhere, e.g., within the adapter itself. It is possible to use a collimating lens to provide a beam of a specific optical diameter, where the diameter is selected to provide an acceptable coupling efficiency at an acceptable alignment tolerance. A focusing lens is also capable of being used. Where high coupling efficiency is desired, the adapter is designed to position the fiber endface in the focal plane of the focusing lens. But this arrangement also reduces the alignment tolerance. It is therefore possible to design the adapter to position the fiber endface behind or in front of the focal plane of the lens, in order to increase this alignment tolerance somewhat.
As noted above, optical communications systems incorporating such device/fiber assemblies are useful for a variety of applications, including computer networking, mobile networking in surface vehicles and aircraft, home appliance networking, and factory automation.
Other embodiments of the invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art from consideration of the specification and practice of the invention disclosed herein.

I don't know how long I've been standing here, alone in the dark, alone in the woods. I can feel his presence, he would soon do what I am dreading. But I am too terrified to move, I feel his red eyes burning into the back of my neck. Suddenly a breath. I spin round feeling my neck where the hot breath had been released.
A crunch of leaves makes me turn. A squirrel freezes as I point my sword at its alarmed face, it scurries quickly away, something I wish I could do.
I look up at the skyscraping trees, each one twirling within the next, but this is no time to admire the giants of the forest.
I can hear shouting in the distance, shouting what? I don't know. The shouting stops and a scream echos. Its him. But he is agile, he will be back here in a matter of seconds.
Pain and anger course through my veins. He is close again. Very close now.
Maybe today will be that day...

True Endeavors Presents:
DJ Abilities
Jel, Sole, Serengeti, CRASHprez, Smiley Gatmouth
High Noon Saloon
701A E. Washington Ave
Madison, WI, 53703
This event is 18 and over
Billy Freekin Dee. In the beginning… there were turntables on a hardwood floor. DJ'ing for the first six months was done on the ground with a case of beer. Eventually Abilities got a table, a mpc and better. With this betterness he was able to release 2 mixtapes, produce 4 full length albums, win 2 DMC's and play hundreds of shows. He is now combining all of these experiences together to create one performance that you can dance to or sit back and enjoy... or hate. Dj Abilities for 2011.
DJ Abilities, born Gregory Keltgen, is a Minnesota-based hip-hop DJ affiliated with Rhymesayers Entertainment. With his emcee partner, the late Eyedea, he formed the group known as Eyedea & Abilities, also known as E&A. He also serves as the DJ for Semi.Official with Minneapolis rapper I Self Devine.
DJ Abilities is well known in the Midwest for being one of the best battle DJs in the local scene, having won both the 1999 and 2001 DMC Regional championships. He is also recognized as a talented producer. He and Eyedea were noted, above all, for their ability to interact in live on stage performances, as well as on record.
On Aug 20th, JEL will release his long anticipated return to form on Anticon, entitled 'Late Pass'. Over the last
decade plus JEL has proved himself time again as the unheralded pioneer of live performance on the MPC sampler.
Trailblazing a path for the likes of Arabmuzik and more, wowing audiences across the globe time again & again with
his live-fingering of the machine. As a producer JEL has created over 30 commercially released LPs (for himself,
Themselves, Mike Patton, Subtle, 13&God, and more). Last year JEL toured the country supporting SLEIGH BELLS,
WHY? as well as extensive headline Summer run w/ DJ Abilities.
With some fairness, Sole's musical arc to this point might be described as a series of battle raps whose range of targets has gradually widened. His early work, beginning with his demo of 1992 (which included such hits as "Cops Ain't Shit") was deeply beholden to the New York rap of that era, Lord Finesse most especially. After all, his first album, self-released in 1994 when he was but sixteen, was entitled, Mad Skillz and Unpaid Billz. Though the plural "z's" were dropped from future releases, the forceful language and aura of overconfidence vital to classic battle rap remained. His proper, post-adolescent albums, Bottle of Humans (2000), Selling Live Water (2003), and Live From Rome (2005) each mixed traditional rap aesthetics with a more original and highly poetic approach with growing sophistication.
Live From Rome, the recording of which spanned a near nervous breakdown, a providential marriage, and a move to Barcelona, was a transitional record, personally searching and politically embittered. That period was epochal for Sole, particularly his alternately disturbing and exhilarating experiences touring Eastern Europe and Israel with his wife, Yasamin. They stumbled across a cache of anticon bootlegs in a tiny outdoor market in Moscow, were caught in the middle of the 2005 church and mosque-burning riots in Belgrade (while they watched the chaos on CNN, tear gas filled their hotel room), bribed crooked Serbian police for their freedom, and hosted a radio show on the Israeli Army's Radio Station, on which Sole pumped Gregory Corso's reading of his long poem, "Bomb," and Public Enemy's "Louder than a Bomb." His return to American soil after nearly two years was occasioned by his participation in Sage Francis's Knowmore.org tour of 2006. He was surprised to find that his homeland had not yet fallen to Brownshirts, and he and Yasamin decided to stay and make a home in rocky Flagstaff, Arizona.
Though Sole had spent most of his career working with celebrated producers—primarily Alias, Odd Nosdam (of cLOUDDEAD), and JEL (of subtle)—by 2005 he had for some time been looking for a working relationship with a more exclusively focused yet also uniquely talented group of musicians. His solo instrumental work, released in 2005 on Morr Music and in 2007 on anticon as mansbestfriend, and his yearlong collaboration with half of Barcelona's Tortoise-like improvational outfit Twelve were aspects of this search. On tour with Dosh, Pedestrian, and Telephone Jim Jesus in 2005, fate landed the caravan at the tropical home of Bud Berning, an electronic musician and dub drummer then recording solo work as SkyRider. Intrigued by SkyRider's sound, Sole later returned to Orlando on a short tour of the Southeast and collaborated with Berning and two musicians who had recently joined the Skyrider fold. Not naturally attracted to music born of machines, Bud had only begun tinkering with computers while immobilized after a coma resulting from a traumatic collision in Mexico City in 2002. The two instrumentalists Berning recruited, Tennessee native John Wagner and omni-instrumentalist William Ryan Fritch, not only fleshed out Berning's sample-based ideas, but also added their own distinct musical voices. As Sole and SkyRider played, sparks struck, and Sole had the quickness of mind to immediately invite SkyRider to move to Flagstaff and record an album.
Against all odds, the band accepted the offer and before long found themselves sharing a house in Flagstaff. Nearly the moment they arrived, SkyRider began playing and recording intensely at Sole's studio, set at an eight thousand foot elevation at the foot of a mountain amid a garden of collard greens, melons, and green beans. Sole promptly scrapped the ten or so songs he'd already recorded towards an album—with a formidable line-up of producers, no less—and devoted himself fully to realizing the distinct sound he'd long heard only in his own head and further sharpening his art of battle rapping the biggest of enemies: empire, ennui, the industries of distraction, and, not least of all, himself.
Illinois native David Cohn, a.k.a. multifaceted rapper Serengeti, experienced two distinctly different childhoods growing up. Half of his time was spent in Chicago's then all-black South Side with his mother — a secretary, atheist, and devout communist. The other half was clocked in the then all-white suburbs of Olympic Fields with his father — a stressed, middle-class business-owner. Though Serengeti is the great nephew of Sonny Cohn, Count Basie's trumpeter of thirty years, music wasn't passed down freely in the family. Instead, young David kept his musical obsessions in his head, and by the time he was ready to loose them, his skull had accumulated several album's worth of left- field hip-hop detritus. Geti has since released fourteen albums in ten years. He made his first two nearly by accident, on the way to completing his so-called "debut," Gasoline Rainbows. That triptych created a hefty rumble in the underground, showcasing stylish, heady raps intertwined with thick threads of soul, pop, rock and psychedelia. With 2006's Dennehy — a character-based concept album loaded with Chi-town signposts and sports references — Geti established himself as the missing link between Kool Keith, Common Sense and Bill Swerski's Superfans. Since, he's been following a stream of consciousness through the darker corners of society and his psyche over an increasingly adventurous musical trajectory. In 2008 alone, Geti debuted two new projects: Yoome, an intimate electronic collaboration with a New Zealand chanteuse, and Friday Night, an exercise in deconstructed party rap with emcee Hi-Fidel. In 2009, Adam "doseone" Drucker (Subtle, themselves, 13& God) signed Geti and his sometimes production partner Polyphonic to Anticon. The pair released their sophomore collaboration on the label that same year, Terradactyl, which found the emcee's bleak verbiage delivered in both rhyme and free-floating sing-song over an intricate and glitchy expanse of experimental electronics. Fifteen months later came Serengeti & Polyphonic's double EP, Bells & A Floating World, which featured six brand new songs and as many remixes, including inspired reworkings by artists as diverse as WHY?, Bracken, Jel, Son Lux, Greetings From Tuskan and Epstein Y El Conjunto. 2011 is looking to be one of Geti's busiest years yet, thanks to Anticon's release of Tha Grimm Teachaz' long-lost cassette-only classic There's a Situation on the Homefront (Geti helped bring the formerly shelved 1993 album to the label) and his contribution to Asthmatic Kitty's ongoing 7-inch series. His latest Anticon release is Family & Friends, a refreshingly upbeat full-length produced by WHY?'s Yoni Wolf and Advance Base, formerly known as Casiotone For The Painfully Alone.
Michael Penn II, otherwise known as CRASHprez, is a Washington, D.C.-born, P.G. County, Maryland-bred 18-year old MC, spoken word artist, producer, and audio engineer. He began recording music in the basement of his home at the age of 14 years old using a USB microphone and the family computer. Now six projects deep, CRASH has evolved into a diverse and seasoned writer who is unafraid of expressing his emotions or opinions through witty wordplay, sharpened sarcasm, and a darkened style of humor.
His subject matter is polished enough to walk the tightrope between stand-up comedy and cynical social commentary, yet rebellious enough to break hip-hop's boundaries while pondering their existence in the first place. He is one of the founding members of the Kool Klux Klan hip-hop collective based in the DMV area and a member of the newly-founded Grammy Family hip-hop collective.
CRASH is no stranger to the spoken word scene as well. He has frequented local open mic scenes since the age of 14. He began slamming as a member of the Creative Writing Alliance which led to him becoming a member of the 2010 Maryland All-Stars Youth Slam Team at the Brave New Voices International Youth Poetry Slam in Los Angeles, CA. More recently, he was a member of UW-Madison's 2012 Slam Team at the College Union Poetry Slam Invitational in La Verne, CA.
CRASH has also excelled in his personal pursuit of knowledge; he is currently on scholarship for his accomplishments in artistry and academia under the First Wave Urban Arts scholarship program at the University of Wisconsin-Madison while pursuing a degree in journalism. Now a sophomore in college, CRASH is currently spending time perfecting his blend of hip-hop between study sessions and the daily grind of student life.

Dutch boy wonder Riechedly Bazoer has just become a man - in football terms - and home club PSV are desperate to keep him out of the clutches of Premier League sharks Manchester City, Arsenal and Newcastle.
All three clubs are in the hunt for the young defender, who turned 16 on October 12 and was offered a three-year deal in Eindhoven.
PSV sporting director Marcel Brands wants him to stay – and has warned the lad that guaranteed regular football won't be on offer in the Prem.
Brands said: "We have offered him a professional contract now he has turned 16. I speak with the family, the boy and his agents. We hope we will get an answer soon.
"What is his intention? Is it to develop or go for bigger money in England? You have to ask him and his agent which clubs are interested in him. I don't know and it doesn't matter.
"It is his choice and the agent will do their best for the player. The only thing we can do is offer him good possibilities in terms of coaching and prospects."
Dutch rules prevent clubs offering players under 18 contracts longer than three years and FIFA have capped compensation for academy players at £296,000.
Brands concedes that on this basis, PSV simply can't cannot compete with the big clubs in England, Spain and Italy.
"Nobody can. It's not a financial thing, anyway. It's important what is possible in a sporting way.
"It's difficult in England to reach the first team of the big clubs after joining out of the youth academy. A lot of young players from Holland went to England and have not yet played in the first team. Many of them ended up being loaned out to other clubs.
"The players who were successful in England came later, like [Edwin] van der Sar, [Jaap] Stam and [Dennis] Bergkamp.
"PSV are delivering a lot of young players for the European market in Spain, England and Italy. It is difficult to compete with those kinds of clubs. The only special thing we have is that a lot of young players play in the league in Holland.
"Last year we had an 18-year-old for the national team (Jetro Williams) playing at left-back.'

From an affordable £10 a month
Your money could grow in an Investment ISA with Scottish Friendly.
If you cash in on the 10th anniversary of the start date of your investment you are guaranteed to get back at least as much as you have invested, provided you haven't made any withdrawals. Investments start from an affordable £10 a month.
The table below provides all the plan detail and things you should consider. For more information on My Prosperity (ISA) please visit the detail tab.
|Investment features
|What you need to consider
No advice has been provided by Scottish Friendly in relation to this plan. If you are in any doubt as to whether this plan is suitable for you, you should contact a financial adviser for advice. If you do not have a financial adviser, you can get details of local financial advisers by visiting www.unbiased.co.uk. Advisers may charge for providing such advice and should confirm any cost beforehand.
From an affordable £10 a month, or a lump sum of £100, your money could work hard to grow a useful cash sum for the future. You can have an Investment ISA (also known as a Stocks & Shares ISA) like My Prosperity (ISA), even if you already have a Cash ISA, an Innovative Finance ISA or a Lifetime ISA with another ISA provider as long as you don't exceed your annual ISA allowance of £20,000.
You don't pay income tax or capital gains tax on any growth on your investment other than the tax that has already been paid (such as dividends from UK companies). Although bear in mind that tax treatment is dependent on individual circumstances, and that tax laws could change in the future.
With My Prosperity (ISA) you get a guaranteed cash sum:
Peace of mind with a guaranteed minimum cash lump sum if you cash in on the 10th anniversary of the start date of your investment.
A cash sum that will initially be at least equal to the payments you've made into it, provided you haven't withdrawn any of the money in your My Prosperity policy.
A guaranteed minimum cash lump sum for every 5 years thereafter. That is on your 15th anniversary, 20th anniversary, 25th anniversary.
If you cash in or take a withdrawal before or after the 10th anniversary, you may get back less than you have paid in.
With flexible payment options available My Prosperity (ISA) puts you in control of your money:
Stop, restart, increase or decrease your payments whenever you like.
Access your money instantly, should you ever need it.
Choose if you want to increase your payments each year (this is known as your yearly payment increase rate).
It's worth remembering that if you're aiming to grow a cash sum for a particular reason, stopping or lowering your payments will take you longer to achieve it.
You can choose to increase your payments each year, if you wish, by a rate to suit you – for example 2.5%, 5% or 10% a year.
In order to check what your monthly premiums would be each year for the first 10 years, check out our handy tool below:
Remember your monthly premium will continue to increase past year 10, however you have the option to change the yearly payment increase rate at any time.
When you set up a My Prosperity (ISA), your money is invested in an individual savings and investment policy, which sits within your Scottish Friendly ISA. The good thing about this is that you can set up as many policies as you like within your ISA.
You can set aside different sums of money for different events in the future or family members. You could for example, set up a policy for each of your children, another for a rainy day, and maybe one for a special holiday – all within your Scottish Friendly ISA.
Opening a My Prosperity (ISA) with Scottish Friendly is easy.
First, please make sure you have read and understood the Key Features. Then you're ready to apply online.
If you apply we suggest printing or saving a copy of this page along with other relevant web pages the Key Features. That way, they will always be handy should you need to refer to them.

|What you need to consider
Remember though, the value of the My Prosperity (ISA) can go down as well as up and your original investment is not guaranteed, other than on the 10 year anniversary of your continuous investment in the fund.
When you start a My Prosperity (ISA), your money will be invested in a My Prosperity policy within a Scottish Friendly ISA, which will invest in our Unitised With-Profits fund.
Because your investment is linked to the stock market, it's impossible to tell you the exact return you may get in the future — but we can give you a rough idea.

Easily overclocked
Other Thoughts:
I bought this CPU for a new build last year with the intent of overclocking it. After running all my tests, I started to overclock it and wanted to go above 4.0Ghz. I tried to push it to 4.2, but was unstable. After a lot of voltage tweaking, I got a stable overclock at 4.0, which is plenty for my needs. I run it at 4.0 24/7 and have never had a BSOD or any issues with it for almost a year.

Item description for The Shadow Christian by Al Cole...Two lives can change in the blink of an eye--or the click of a mouse. One man, one woman, one marriage shattered by pornography. The Shadow Christian is a parable for our time, a time when sexual compulsion ranks as the number one problem for Christian men.
In this inspiring true story, a husband struggles to resist sexual temptation and regain his soul, while his wife must cope with the pain of betrayal and try to forgive. It is an intimate look at the challenges a couple faces when forced to reexamine their relationship with each other and with God.
The Shadow Christian takes the reader inside the minds and hearts of an ordinary man and woman searching for hope in the midst of despair. It is a tender account of a soul-searching journey through the wilderness of sexual sin.

The first kickoff time for Oklahoma's 2016 season was revealed Tuesday morning as the Sooners and Houston will meet 11 a.m. CST on Sept. 3.
OU will take on the Cougars at NRG Stadium in the AdvoCare Texas Kickoff with both schools making their first appearance in the fourth year of the event.
The Sooners are coming off an 11-2 season, including becoming the first school from the Big 12 to reach the college football playoff. The Cougars were 13-1, punctuating an incredible first season under Tom Herman with a win against Florida State in the Peach Bowl.
Although no game opening weekend features a better win-loss percentage than OU and Houston at 24-3 last season, it will be among the first games of the year albeit a national TV broadcast on ABC.
ESPN released a number of times for what it shaping up to be one of the most stacked opening weekends in college football history.
Other games Saturday include LSU vs. Wisconsin, Georgia vs. North Carolina, Clemson at Auburn and culminating with USC vs. Alabama from AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
The weekend doesn't stop there with Notre Dame at Texas on Sunday and concludes with Ole Miss vs. Florida State on Labor Day (Monday).
Obviously this won't be the only major nonconference game for the Sooners as OU welcomes Ohio State to Norman on Sept. 17. Kickoff time for that contest has not been determined just yet.

Regional News Briefs
Ex-mayor jailed for intoxicated driving
Baraboo — A former mayor of Superior and Duluth, Minn., is in jail after being convicted of second-offense operating while intoxicated.
Herb Bergson, 57, is serving a 22-day sentence in Sauk County after a jury convicted him in the May 6, 2012, incident in Baraboo.
A judge also fined Bergson $1,235 and revoked his driver's license for 15 months.
In 2005, when he was mayor of Duluth, Bergson pleaded no contest to operating while intoxicated after a crash near Spooner.
Bergson sought re-election as his first term as Duluth mayor ended in 2007, but he was eliminated in the primary.
Bergson is a former police officer who served two terms as mayor of Superior.
Damp spring a factor
in fewer cycle deaths
Motorcycle deaths plummeted in Wisconsin in 2013, and experts are attributing the drop to two factors, according to the Green Bay Press-Gazette.
The first: More attention to safety by motorcycle groups and safety advocates. The second: A cold, damp spring that kept many bikers off the road.
There were 84 motorcycle deaths last year, down from 116 in 2012, according to the Press-Gazette.
Department of Transportation experts say it's unclear what role helmets played in the drop.
Gogebic drilling application approved
Wisconsin regulators have approved an application for exploratory drilling by Gogebic Taconite at the site of a proposed mine in northern Wisconsin.
The state Department of Natural Resources approved the company's plans to drill 15 exploratory drill holes at the mine site, which spans portions of Ashland and Iron counties.
Gogebic had received an exploration license in the spring of 2013 and drilled eight holes last summer. It was during that period that a protester threatened a mine company worker. The protester was later arrested and charged with felony robbery and three misdemeanors.
Since the incident, authorities have not reported similar aggressive tactics by protesters who oppose the $1.5 billion iron ore mine.
The drill holes will provide information on core samples of rock and the potential to produce iron ore.
According to documents filed by Gogebic, the maximum drill hole will be 1,465 feet.
The drilling activity will sample more than 11,000 feet of rock.
Gogebic is proposing to construct a four-mile long mine as deep as 1,000 feet in the Penokee range. The area has been mined since the 1850s, and core drilling first began in the 1920s, according to the company's application.
Gogebic must receive approvals from the DNR and others, including the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, before it can proceed.
UW worker struck by truck is identified
Madison police have identified a University of Wisconsin-Madison employee struck by a truck while walking near campus Thursday as Edith M. Dixon, 62.
Police said Saturday that an autopsy showed that Dixon died from injuries in the accident when a truck backed into her. The truck was owned by UW-Madison. The case remains under investigation.

This 360-Degree Camera Will Give You A Virtual Reality Astronaut Experience On The ISS
J Thoendell stashed this in Oculus
Source: http://www.iflscience.com/space/360-degr...
A company is hoping to launch a 360-degree camera to the International Space Station (ISS) that will let people on Earth see an "astronaut's view" of space in virtual reality. CalledSpaceVR, the San Francisco-based project is currently seeking $100,000 (£66,000) of funding on Kickstarter for its endeavor.
At the heart of the project is a device called Overview One, which has four cameras on each side to capture footage. It will be capable of recording in 16K – ultra high-definition – giving Earthlings high-resolution footage from the ISS. SpaceVR is working with NanoRacks, which has launched more than 300 items to the ISS, with the hope of sending its camera to the ISS next year, possibly on a SpaceX mission in the summer.
"The camera is a four-camera rig, with 179-degree lenses," Varun Vruddhula from SpaceVR told IFLScience. "Hardwired together to start recording at the same time with the press of a single button, it records a sphere of video at 4K per camera for two hours."
Stashed in: Kickstarter, Virtual Reality!, Space!

Just wondering if anyone had any experience running Parmen under WINE?
It's a wonderful Star Trek 3D Chess program (it does 2D as well), but unfortunately, once I restore a game and then try to move, it crashes as soon as I click on a piece. It runs well on my Windows XP virtual machine so it's not a big deal, but I'd love to get it running on Ubuntu since Windows is evil..:P
I've tried changing the configuration settings so that it runs as Default, Win XP, and Vista with the same behavior...
Any help or advice is, as always, appreciated.
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS in a VMware Virtual Machine running on a Windows 7 host with a new Intel i5 processor and motherboard and 16GB of RAM.

Mumbai, Mar 27: Anti-graft crusader Anna Hazare who recently announced a 'jail bharo andolan' across the country against NDA government's Land Bill, today said he was ready for an open debate with Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the issue.
"You have called for an open debate. We accept this. But there is very small possibility of a concrete decision by having a debate with you.
We expect that Modi informs us the day, venue and time for the open debate," Hazare said, in reply to a letter by Union minister Nitin Gadkari.
Also Read: No foreign funding, no money from capitalists, says Anna Hazare
"There is not a single thing in the bill which is in the interests of farmers," Hazare said. Hazare expressed apprehension over the assurance of job to a member of the family of the farmer whose land is acquired.
"What is the guarantee ? Such assurances have been made in the past also," Hazare said. "We will give priority to the battle against corruption. Lokpal Lokayukta legislation is in place but not being implemented," Hazare said.

National Book Award, Nonfiction, 1997For a man who insisted that life on the public stage was not what he had in mind, Thomas Jefferson certainly spent a great deal of time in the spotlight, even in his retirement. In his twilight years, Jefferson was already taking on the luster of a national icon, which was polished off by his auspicious death on July 4, 1826.
In American Sphinx, Ellis sifts the facts from the legend to find the heart of the man who, at the grass roots, is no longer liberal or conservative, agrarian or industrialist, pro- or anti-slavery, privileged or populist. A man who sang incessantly under his breath; who spent ten hours a day during his presidency at his writing desk; and who sometimes found his political sensibilities colliding with his domestic agenda; who exhibited great depth and great shallowness, combined massive learning with extraordinary naïveté, and should neither be beatified nor forgotten.
©1996 Joseph J. Ellis; (P)1998 Blackstone Audio, Inc.
"Ellis does not have an agenda to promote; he has a story to tell, and he tells it well. In a book that reads like fiction, he combines exciting plot turns with information." (School Library Journal)
"The richly documented life of Jefferson holds endless fascination....This set should be a lasting favorite in popular biography collections, especially in the South. Warmly recommended." (Library Journal)
"Penetrating Jefferson's placid, elegant facade, this extraordinary biography brings the sage of Monticello down to earth without either condemning or idolizing him." (Publishers Weekly)
"American Sphinx: The Character of Thomas Jefferson"
BUY THE BOOK, AVOID THE AUDIO BOOK. The text is excellent, but the reader is horrible. She rushes the text, ignores punctuations and lacks inflection. Their is also a very annoying skip in the recording.
"A good Jefferson primer."
This book is a good primer on the mind of Thomas Jefferson. It's accessible, flows well, and is well written overall. The conclusions in the epilogue and appendix are very interesting and thoughtful. I recommend this book.
"The first..."
Jefferson biography I've read, and very good. It's made me want to search out others seeking other info on the man. There are parts of TJ 's life that Ellis glossed over.
"Excellent analysis of Jefferson's complex mind and"
I've noticed some objections to the quality of the recording. Not to worry! If there was a problem, it has been solved. Excellent - very listenable. Wonderful book.
A school administrator and avid reader and listener of books. At least an hour of every day is spent in the car, and that's where the bulk of my listening is done. I tend to listen to books on "faster" mode so I can get through more books!
"Fine, but I wanted more"
Well researched, well written, not so engaging. The lack of engagement could be because, for me, there was no new revelation into who Jefferson was. By no means am I a Jefferson expert, but maybe I've read just enough that this book didn't add anything new.
"Can't Recommend Due to Narration"
Supposedly the narration "dropout" issue from the past got fixed, but the narration still sounds weird, like it's been through too many compression steps or just not enough bits. Many sounds just don't come through, and sometimes she (the narrator) sounds synthetic. I enjoyed "His Excellency" by Joseph Ellis and wanted to continue, but the narration is an obstacle.
"My Droid speaks with more emotion"
Narrator Susan O'Malley takes the intriguing subject of Thomas Jefferson and brings all the interpretation and emotion of an automated customer service menu, making this book all but impossible to listen to. Buy the physical or kindle version

Does anyone have a study guide for "Just Listen" by Sarah Dessen, I have looked all over?
1 Answer | Add Yours
There is not currently a study guide for Just Listen, although you may consider viewing the study guide for the novel, Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson. It is very similar to Just Listen and may have some discussion topics and ideas that may be useful in developing a unit on Dessen's book.

Listing video
Description: All poutama kids had to get in to groups of 3 and make a 30sec video. I worked with Emma O and Cohen. In our video we had to include active listing and one more. Or if you wanted to or if you had time to you could do all 3. Hope you enjoy our video!
Big idea: We included all in our video. Here's the different type of listening.
1. Active listing is when you put down what your doing and actually listen to the person and you might have a conversation too!
2. Busy listing is when you don't put down your things carry on and when the other person is talking your kind of listen but sometimes there talking about other things and you think there talking about another thing because you weren't listening. Here's an example. "Have you ever been to rainbows end? It's super fun! Have you been on the ride when..." "yeah yeah splash planet that's so fun!"
They weren't listing to the person who was talking.
3. Then there's Me too listing. Me too listing is when someone says something then that other person interrups and realates to them self.
Feedback/Feedfoward: I don't think there is anything needs fixing. Caitlin
Evaluation: I found it a bit hard to remember which ones which so hopefully the video helped you to remember! Also having a 30sec movie was a bit hard because our video was 34sec and it was really hard to know what ones to take away. Now our videos 30sec! (Yay!) I think I am a active listener because I actually listen and I don't enterup the person. I also put my things down and sometimes have a conversation.

Treaty of Waitangi
Description: since it was close to Waitangi Day all of poutama decided to get in groups and do something about Waitangi Day. I worked with Emma and Devin.
Hope you enjoy the movie!
Big idea: we decided to make a movie all together. In this movie we came up with an idea to have half of the movie what if we didn't have a treaty and if we did. We have a chart of what we can aim for. We aimed for multi. Multi is 3 facts or more! You can have a look at the chart and what the other goals/aims are. Here's the chart.
Feedback/Feedfoward: I think that the movie went well but maybe next time challenge yourself more by working with different people from Emma O 🙂
Evaluation: I found it a bit hard to work in a group aspeashaly if someone doesn't agree! Luckily we got to the end! We aimed for multi because we didn't want to do so little work and we wanted to do lots! Not to big that we couldn't get it done by the time where given. We all thought multi was the best one to aim for and that's what we did. Maybe next time I do something with the chart I could challenge my self (and my group) by doing relational or extended abstract.

Waitingi day
Description: We had to come up with some questions about Waitangi Day. You got to record it how ever you want. Write it in your think book, google docs, pic collage, ect. I chose pic collage. I came up with 4 questions. Here's my pic collage.
1. The Treaty of Waitangi is an agreement made in 1840. They didn't want to have a war so they had an agreement.
2. Winston Peters
3. They signed the treaty at the treaty house in Waitangi.
4. We celebrate Waitangi Day because its the day they made the treaty and signed it.

One word of 2016
WALT:set goals
Description: this year we had to set a goal. You had to think about one word that's kind of like a goal. My word of 2016 is... Experiment. I chose that word because to me I feel like trying more things and different things as well. Example: putting your self in the learning pit. I can experiment most of my time at school and a lot more a home.

Martin Tschopp, Vice President of eBay Germany, spoke at eTail on the growth of mobile technology and the future of online and offline commerce.
He discusses how the first retail evolution through the internet was at the end of the 90's when ecommerce became mainstream, but we are now entering the second revolution within the online trading world. The key to success, he says, is the seamless marriage between online and offline retail, whereby all channels are integrated.
While it may not be a familiar name, multi-brand company Otto Group is the second-biggest distance-selling company worldwide, currently worth in excess of €11bn.
