Rockies' Dan O'Dowd remains GM; Geivett to work more closely with big-league team

Let's see how long this org chart lasts, but it sure looks like O'Dowd is getting nudged to the door.2. puck Posted: August 01, 2012 at 07:13 PM (#4198471)
Weird they can't just do it, though. So maybe O'Dowd is not the only source of the "Plan/week" method.3. Tom Nawrocki Posted: August 01, 2012 at 07:19 PM (#4198478)
The Rockies have also told O'Dowd he can listen to his radio at a reasonable level, although they're going to need his red stapler.
Love this comment, AG#1F.
O'Dowd had an absolutely heinous off-season; not a single one of his big-ticket acquisitions has worked out. Guthrie and Ramon Hernandez were awful, Scutaro wasn't much better, and Cuddyer, the best of the bunch, has been mediocre. All those guys were older than the Rockies they were replacing. He got three young pitchers for Seth Smith and Chris Iannetta, and all three got knocked around in the majors and have been sent back to the minors, although they're still young enough to eventually make an impact.4. Dag Nabbit at ExactlyAsOld.com Posted: August 01, 2012 at 07:43 PM (#4198488)
The success stories for this year include the rookies Wilin Rosario and Josh Rutledge, and when the Rockies have been good, it's been almost entirely because of their farm system. So asking O'Dowd to focus on player development seems like a good idea. It'll be nice not to have him make any more transactions at the major league level for a while.
The Covlin-Stewart deal worked pretty well for them at least.5. Darren Posted: August 01, 2012 at 07:51 PM (#4198491)
You are now the vice president but your job will be cleaning the floors.6. Tom Nawrocki Posted: August 01, 2012 at 08:27 PM (#4198509)
O'Dowd lives a charmed life.
The Covlin-Stewart deal worked pretty well for them at least.
That's true. You have to give him credit for that one. It would be even better if the Cuddyer signing hadn't choked off the best place for Colvin to play.
man that is just terrible news. decreased effups?? i hate those rockies!!! they are only 2 games behind my astros in the great race to see who can lose the most games in 1 year. If we can keep up this awesome pace of only 3 wins/month, we will WIN THE TITLE of Suckest Team to Ever Suck in a 162 game season. We'll winnnnn!!!!!!!!8. Ivan Grushenko of Hong Kong Posted: August 01, 2012 at 08:44 PM (#4198518)
It will be soooooo thrilling! How can we manage to lose again? Make sure the guy playing third can't field routine grounders. Make sure your leadoff guy and the guy hitting 3rd or cleanup has an on base under .280!!!! Make sure the second baseman throws 1 foot over the head of the SS when making a flip to second!! make sure some idiot on second isn't smart enough to wait until a GB gets thru the IF before starting for third so he can get in a rundown!! Make sure the runner at third wanders off into the coaches box so as he can get picked off!! Have the "hitters" flail away at pitches 1 foot over or outside the strike zone!! Make sure you have catchers who can't block pitches or throw out runners, hopefully throwing into the OF a lot. And best of all, keep running relievers like cooked cordero and chuckie Ick out there to give up 3-4 runs/inning!!!!!
And just when i keep thinking that can't NOBODY catch us in the race to the suckage, i look up and there is the (swear word) rockies right on our heels, only 2 games away.
man that is just terrible news. decreased effups??
We don't really know this do we? This Geivett guy could be an even more prolific effupper than O'Dowd was.
Firing O'Dowd outright would be SOP but this is just plain weird.10. Tom Nawrocki Posted: August 01, 2012 at 08:51 PM (#4198521)
1. OK, I assume this an attempt to save face for O'Dowd but to push him out of ML responsibility while keeping him GM is strange. Usually this is done by just making the GM the (powerless) VP for baseball operations and having the new guy be GM. (Would I be correct in guessing O'Dowd has a few years left on his contract?)
2. And they replace him with a guy who is, according to the story, going to work closely with Jim Tracy? I can't imagine a better way to catch the Astros than to give Jim Tracy more input into personnel decisions.
3. #2 suggests that there was a disconnect between O'Dowd and Tracy -- and Tracy won the office politics battle? Jim Tracy? I guess he prayed harder.
OK, 2 and 3 are really the same point but ... Jim Tracy?
2. And they replace him with a guy who is, according to the story, going to work closely with Jim Tracy? I can't imagine a better way to catch the Astros than to give Jim Tracy more input into personnel decisions.
I didn't interpret the story that way at all. Geivett is going to run the team at the major league level, including overseeing the major league manager.
O'Dowd earlier was quoted saying that Jim Tracy had a job as long as he was around. I'm not sure what Jim Tracy has done to deserve that kind of job security, but so it goes.12. Walt Davis Posted: August 01, 2012 at 09:01 PM (#4198532)

Could be I suppose, I just don't equate "work closely with" and "oversee." And if you need a separate guy to "work closely with" the manager, that suggests that O'Dowd wasn't or was finding it an onerous task.
It gets a little weirder now I read the story ... Geivett is "senior vice president for major league operations" but still reports to O'Dowd as his boss. Does any other team have a senior VP for the majors? What is O'Dowd's actual title -- Exec VP for basball ops?
But, sure, it all depends how you interpret the intentionally vague corporate lingo. O'Dowd "will remain involved in player acquistions." That either means he's been pushed aside in this role but still gets to sit in the room ... or he's still calling the shots on player acquisition.
Walt Davis Posted: August 01, 2012 at 08:45 PM (#4198519)14. Shooty is obsessed with the latest hoodie Posted: August 02, 2012 at 07:12 AM (#4198665)

i don't get the jim tracy luuuvv by that Organization
and yeah, catching the astros looks easier for them by the day
It's funny how a guy like Tracy is going to have a long career as an ML manager and a guy like Dierker never got a second crack despite a nice run of success in Houston. Baseball loves their Yes-men, I guess. And agreed that this plan is just weird but, then, the Rockies are a weird organization.15. Tripon Posted: August 02, 2012 at 06:00 PM (#4199213)
Jim Tracy isn't even a yes man though. He back stabbed his players, throws them under the buss when it suits him, said one thing, does another, played guys he wanted despite his front office clearly preferring other options. He just has that aw shucks personality going for him so the right people (His bosses) fall for it.16. dr. scott Posted: August 02, 2012 at 07:04 PM (#4199243)
All disfunctional organizations love their yes men.

Salazar's dazzling debut defeats Toronto
CLEVELAND — It was a win for the present and a sign for the future Thursday at Progressive Field.
At least the Indians hope it is.
But when a 23-year-old comes up from AAA and handles himself with poise and ability in a spot start, and when he no-hits the Toronto Blue Jays through five innings, and when he wins his first game and earns a beer bath from his teammates in the clubhouse after, something has gone right.
Thursday was a day Danny Salazar said he waited for for seven years – since he signed with the Indians as a 16-year-old in the Dominican Republic.
This day was a one-day sign that there is a starting pitcher in the system they can expect to do well. It's the way they've felt since Salazar had a 1.96 ERA in the Domincan Summer League in 2007, and since they protected him on the 40-man roster in 2012, after Salazar had missed an entire year due to Tommy John surgery.
"This guy's a major league pitcher," manager Terry Francona said.
Which is exactly what Francona said in the offseason when he saw Salazar throw in the bullpen at the team's training facility in the Dominican.
Thursday, Salazar acted like he belonged. He gave up no hits through five innings and two through six. He gave up one run, and struck out seven — the most by an Indians pitcher in his major league debut since Luis Tiant struck out 11 in Yankee Stadium in July of 1964.
Tempting as it might be to fans to advocate keeping Salazar in Cleveland, it's not happening. He was optioned back to Columbus after the game. He's a year removed from surgery and simply is not ready to throw major league starter's innings.
The Indians have him on a pitch count — the six innings he threw in his major league debut marked the first time he had thrown six innings this season.
"He just needs to get some innings and get away from Tommy John and build up strength," Francona said. "(But) that can be what he is. This kid's got special stuff."
Salazar threw his fastball in the high 90s, regularly hitting 97 mph and at times hitting 99. He mixed in a changeup that Nick Swisher called "devastating."
"He kind of reminded me of King Felix," Swisher said, referring to Seattle's Felix Hernandez, a four-time All-Star and former Cy Young winner.
Salazar worked fast, and he worked efficiently, throwing strikes on 64 of his 89 pitches. He was obviously excited — he may have set records for fastest to first base on ground balls to first — but he stayed composed.
"He just kind of said, 'Hey this is what I got,'" Swisher said. "He had a great rhythm going. He just kind of got the ball, got the sign and he was going. There wasn't a lot of walking around. I feel like he got in such a good rhythm, that I thought that helped him out a lot."
"I wanted to get ahead in the count and throw my pitches," Salazar said. "If they hit it, they hit it. If they don't, they don't."
He smiled about being nervous in the bullpen, chuckled about trying to keep himself calm on the mound and candidly admitted he was praying the Indians would score in the bottom of the sixth, which would mean a win, which he earned.
He threw basically a fastball and changeup. He struck out the side in the second, and appeared to have Josh Thole struck out in the sixth, but the umpire decided otherwise. Thole would go on to get the first hit of the game for Toronto.
Salazar wasn't going to go nine innings, though. Had he he gotten through the sixth without giving up a hit, he would have faced maybe one hitter in the seventh.
"His future's too bright to be messing around," Francona said.
Francona thought for a second about the notion of removing a pitcher throwing a no-hitter in his major league debut.
"I might have sent Mickey out to get him," he said, referring to pitching coach Mickey Callaway.
Salazar started the season in Double-A Akron, but was promoted to Triple-A Columbus in early May. The Indians had been relying on Trevor Bauer for spot starts, but Bauer's last outing was a mess, and Carlos Carrasco has been a consistent mess.
At a recent meeting of minor league coordinators, Francona asked if Salazar was ready for a spot start, and the answer was unanimously yes. He had the advantage of pitching to a lineup that had never seen him, but he took full advantage.
This was Salazar's day — not just in Cleveland but back at his hometown on the Eastern side of the Dominican Republic's North Shore. Salazar said that the entire town of Cabrera was outside in a park, watching his game on a big screen.
No doubt, the party continued into the evening.

Defence Secretary Geoff Hoon revealed 10,500 service posts will disappear in cuts which went even deeper than the worst fears of the armed forces.
The services will be reduced to their smallest size since the Second World War and radically reorganised with a new emphasis on hi-tech weaponry.
- The Army will lose 1,500 personnel, the RAF 7,500 and the Navy 1,500 - with some of the soldiers and RAF personnel suffering compulsory redundancies.
- Twelve Navy surface ships and at least two submarines will be taken out of service.
- The RAF's entire fleet of Jaguars will be axed and its base at Coltishall, Norfolk, closed.
The 1,500 job losses for the Army came as a shock even to senior officers, who had thought the already overstretched force would escape the axe.
Mr Hoon confirmed reports that four Army battalions would go, though he said the units to be axed would not be named yet. Three will be in England and one in Scotland.
Other historic regiments will be merged into multi-battalion regional units, though they will still retain part of their identities.
Up to 600 soldiers will be subject to compulsory redundancy.
General Sir Mike Jackson, chief of the general staff, said he realised it would be "sad and unwelcome news" for the Army - and "perhaps counterintuitive" at a time when soldiers are busier than for many years.
But he insisted that that the cuts were not driven by money and that the overall outcome would be "positive" for many soldiers.
Conservative defence spokesman Nicholas Soames branded the cuts a "betrayal".
He said: "The people whose planes are going to be grounded are the same men and women who bailed out the Government over foot and mouth, saved Sierra Leone from destruction, freed Kosovo and liberated Iraq.
"These young men and women will feel themselves to have been betrayed, politically and morally." Bruce George, the Labour MP and chairman of the Commons defence committee, demanded: "Please explain who the idiot was who thinks you can cut the infantry at a time when the pressure on them is enormous.
"Have you consulted Gerry Adams or maybe the Fire Brigades Union whether they are going to behave themselves over the next few years?"
Mr George said his committee would summon Mr Hoon to explain his decisions after the summer.
But Mr Hoon said the armed forces could
achieve their goals through a "smaller number of more capable military assets" and stressed that defence spending would continue to rise.
The MoD said there was a "shift away from numbers of people and platforms" to an emphasis on the "effects" that could be achieved with high
technology. Modern ships and aircraft could do more than their predecessors, officials said.
Mr Hoon said: "The Government is determined to make the choices necessary to ensure that the real growth in defence expenditure is targeted at what the armed forces require in the 21st century rather than what they have inherited from the 20th."
"I would be dishonest if I did not say that the spending review exercise this year has been very challenging for defence and the Army."

The Federal Court of Australia has said in a ruling that ICICI Bank cannot be dragged into a legal battle between Perdaman Chemicals & Fertilisers and the Lanco Group over coal-supply issues.
A consortium of lenders led by ICICI Bank had financed Lanco's A$730-million acquisition of Griffin Coal in March 2011. Perdaman had filed a lawsuit against ICICI Bank in January, seeking damages worth A$3.2 billion (around Rs. 18,010 crore), claiming that ICICI restrained Griffin Coal from supplying coal to its upcoming urea plant in Western Australia
Federal Court justice Neil McKerracher, on March 6, refused Perdaman's request to serve the bank with a lawsuit in Singapore.

Montanans protest against the IRS
MISSOULA, Mont. - People around the country protested against the IRS Wednesday, and Montanans took part, too.
Our cameras caught a protest in Missoula Wednesday. Protestors carried signs and waved flags and called for the IRS to be audited and abolished.
The protest stems from revelations the IRS admitted it increased scrutiny on non-profit groups tied to conservative political agendas.
Gloria Roark is the chairman of the Missoula Tea Party. She slammed the IRS for what she called its "intrusiveness of burdening taxpayers with investigations and unfair accusations as well as targeting specific groups just because of our beliefs."
Similar protests were held around the country, including one on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C.

Listen -- a billion people are throwing up. That's a rough estimate of course, but every year somebody at the Oscars says a billion people on the planet are watching the program; however many watched this year's Oscar show, they may well have felt sickened by it. It was a stomach-churning, jaw-dropping debacle, incompetently hosted and witlessly produced.

In begrudgingly recommending "Paul Williams Still Alive" to his legion of fans, I am reminded of a Rolling Stone magazine review of Janis Joplin's first solo album, "I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama!" Janis never sounded better, the reviewer said, but to enjoy her, you had to be able to tune out her backup band. A similar caveat is necessary here. Enjoyment of "Still Alive" will depend on your tolerance of writer-director Stephen Kessler, who takes Williams' joke at one point that the documentary could become the "Paulie and Steve Show" as a carte blanche invitation to intrude on the proceedings.

"It was an amazing experience," said Jeffrey Tambor. "I come from the theater and it was very, very much approached like theater. It was rehearsed and Garry took a long, long time in casting and putting that particular unit together." In a phone interview, Tambor talked about how Garry Shandling and his behind-the-scenes team selected the performers to play the characters, regulars and guest stars, on "The Larry Sanders Show" when it debuted 20 years ago. Shandling chose well throughout the series' run and -- from the veteran to the novice, the theater-trained acting teacher and character actor to the comedy troupe star in his most subtle role -- they all tend to feel the way Tambor does: "It changed my career. It changed my life."

Q. I'm so glad you reviewed "Robin Hood" as a "loss of innocence." I couldn't agree with you more. I would much rather see people laugh, love, and be absurd in movies, rather than hate, fight, and disembowel. I'm so glad you felt this way, because most of what Russell Crowe does falls into the latter. Modern guys feel they have to have a certain level of intensity about them or else they are wimps I guess. I for one am glad I retain something of the dreamer, the wanderer, and the lazy laugh of my childhood. I rarely go to the movies anymore because i don't want images of violence or gore impressed upon my subconscious, regardless of whether they are "real" or not. (Stephen Sian, North Vancouver, BC)
Some people are proposing a boycott of Newsweek because of a silly article that criticizes gay actors -- specifically on TV's "Glee" and in the Broadway revival of the Bacharach-David Musical "Promises, Promises" -- for acting too gay in straight roles. This strikes me as fundamentally hilarious for several reasons, the most obvious of which are:
1) I didn't know anyone needed additional incentive to not read Newsweek, since circulation figures indicate that lots and lots of people have been not reading it without making any concerted effort not to do so.
2) "Glee" and "Promises, Promises" are both Musicals, for god's sake. Where would the Musical be without the participation of gay actors? The movie version of "Paint Your Wagon" -- that's where. You Musical fans want to spend the rest of your lives watching and listening to Clint Eastwood singing "I Talk to the Trees"? Then go ahead and complain that gay performers are too gay to star in Musicals.
Somebody named Michael Jones -- essentially the same Mr. Jones Bob Dylan wrote about years ago -- appeared on HuffPo recently with a piece called "That Steely Dan Moment" -- you know, about a discovery of musical taste that makes you wonder if you could ever love the person who possesses it. The twist is that he's the one who falls short and doesn't know it. Turn up the Eagles, the neighbors are listening, Mr. Jones.
Anyway, I wouldn't have paid attention except that his story (who knows where or when it originally appeared if it was on HuffPo) reminded me of an article my friend Julia Sweeney did for the February, 1993, issue of SPIN magazine that was written and edited by the staff of "Saturday Night Live." It probably wasn't an entirely original idea then, either, but it was called "Men, Music & Me," and in it she discussed her assessments of collegiate and post-collegiate boyfriends -- using their cinematic and musical tastes as a guide. (Please also see my entry on Carl Wilson's book, "Let's Talk About Love: A Journey to the End of Taste.")
I said just about everything I had to say about the Oscars in a dozen or so tweets I filed the evening of the broadcast, in between juggling manual updates for a couple of stories on RogerEbert.com (including Roger's live-tweets of the show) and approving Oscar comments on Roger's blog. I think I got out of my chair two or three times between 3:30pm and 9:30pm PST.
So, yeah, I made a few observations -- like this:
Instead of playing "I Am Woman" after Kathryn Bigelow's win, why didn't they play "Papa Can You Hear Me?" for Babs? #oscars

Elinor Burkett's Oscar performance marks the official arrival of the word "Kanye" (or "Kanyed") as a verb. http://j.mp/9XIwqy #oscars

The present application claims priority from U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/070,768 entitled METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR INCREASING THE AREAL DENSITY OF NEAR-FIELD OPTICAL DRIVES USING APERTURES, which was filed on Jan. 8, 1998.
The present invention relates to storage devices for computer systems. In particular, the present invention relates to optical and magneto-optical storage devices.
Optical data storage disc systems are a promising technology for storing large quantities of data. The data is accessed by focusing a laser beam onto a data surface of the disc and analyzing light reflected from or transmitted through the data surface. In general, in optical storage systems, data is in the form of marks carried on the surface of the disc which are detected using the reflected laser light. The surface of the disc is patterned to represent data that is typically stored in concentric tracks around the disc. The data is read from the disc by positioning the beam of light over a particular track on the disc and sensing the intensity and polarity of the reflected light from the disc.
There are a number of different optical disc technologies which are known in the industry. For example, compact discs are currently used to store digital data such as computer programs or digitized music. Typically, compact discs are permanently recorded during manufacture. Another type of optical system is a write-once read-many (WORM) system in which a user may permanently write information onto a blank disc. Other types of systems are erasable, such as phase change and magneto-optic (M-O) systems. Phase change systems detect data by sensing a change in reflectivity. M-O systems read data by measuring the rotation of the incident light polarization due to the storage medium.
The above systems require a beam of light to be focused onto a data surface of a disc and recovering the reflected light with a sensor. Storage density is determined not only by the size of the markings on the data surface, but also by the size of the beam focused on the surface (i.e. resolution).
In order to increase areal density in an optical drive, the spot size of the optical stylus (i.e., the focused beam) can be decreased by either decreasing the wavelength λ of light or increasing the numerical aperture (NA) of the focusing elements. Other optical techniques which either directly or indirectly reduce the effective spot size of the optical stylus are generally referred to as "superresolution" techniques.
For example, it is well known that the resolving power of a microscope can be increased by placing an aperture with a pinhole (having a diameter smaller than the focused spot size) sufficiently close to the object being observed. It was previously thought to be impractical to place a pinhole aperture in sufficient proximity to an optical disc moving at several meters per second. The goal to achieve such an effect led to the development of another form of superresolution-magnetically induced superresolution (MSR), where a pinhole-like optical readout aperture is formed in the media itself. MSR media, however, is much more difficult to manufacture than conventional M-O media and is highly sensitive to temperature variations.
As another example, tapered optical fibers are commonly used to achieve superresolution in near field scanning optical microscopy. In this case the tip of the tapered fiber acts as a sub-wavelength aperture which generates evanescent fields that can couple to the object of interest. Tapered optical fibers, however, have extremely small power transfer efficiencies. A 50 nm diameter tip fiber has a power transmission of roughly 10−6, which is 4-5 orders of magnitude less than what would typically be acceptable in an optical recording drive (due to constraints on laser power and media sensitivity).
U.S. Pat. No. 5,161,134 to Lee, entitled METHOD FOR INCREASING LINEAR BIT DENSITY IN MAGNETO-OPTICAL STORAGE MEDIA, is herein incorporated by reference. The Lee patent discloses that sliders (flying heads) can be used to position a slit at close proximity to the media surface, thereby enabling superresolution. However, to achieve super resolution using a slit optimized for reading data, low transmission of power to the media typically results. This in turn requires very large amounts of laser power to write data on the media.
Disclosed is a near field optical recording head for use with light from a light source to read data from and to write data to a surface of an optical recording media. The recording head includes a slider body adapted to fly a first distance above the surface of the optical recording media, the first distance being less than one wavelength of the light from the light source. The recording head also includes separate read and write apertures having dimensions which optimize read and write functions, respectively.

FIG. 3 is a plot illustrating power transmission and capacity gain as a function of aperture diameter.

FIGS. 5A through 5D are plots illustrating features of the present invention.
FIG. 6A is a plot illustrating minimum resolvable slit separation as a function of aperture diameter.
FIG. 6B is a plot illustrating capacity gain versus aperture transmission.
FIG. 7 is a diagrammatic illustration of a rectangular slit aperture used in the present invention.
FIG. 8 is a plot illustrating power transmission and capacity gain as functions of slit width.
FIG. 9 is a diagrammatic illustration of an optical mask which forms separate read and write rectangular slit apertures, as well as an alignment pinhole aperture.
FIG. 10 is a diagrammatic illustration of the optical mask shown in FIG. 9 in use with a recording head of the present invention.
The present invention includes the use of multiple pinhole apertures in an optical read/write head: a narrow slit for high resolution reading of data and a wider slit for efficient writing of data. The present invention can also include a circular aperture for optical component alignment. Embodiments of the present invention also include the use of a Micro Electro Mechanical System (MEMS) mirror for tracking and switching between read/write functions. The present invention can also include the addition of a solid immersion lens (SIL) as a highly efficient mechanism for focusing light onto the separate read and write apertures.
FIG. 1 is a side view of an optical storage system 100 which implements embodiments of the present invention. An optical module 102, which includes a laser, creates a light beam 104 that is directed through an enclosed optical path 106 extending laterally from optical module 102. Light beam 104 reflects off a mirror 108 toward an optical head 110, which focuses the collimated beam into a small spot on surface 113 of a disc 112. Together, optical module 102, optical path 106 and mirror 108 provide a light beam production assembly. As illustrated in the remaining FIGS., the light beam production assembly can include other components as well.
Disc 112 spins about a central axis 114, continuously bringing new data regions underneath the spot of light produced by optical head 110. The light incident on surface 113 of disc 112 is reflected back through enclosed optical path 106 and is analyzed by a control module 116 and a servo controller 118 attached to optical module 102. Through this process, optical storage system 100 retrieves data and servo information stored on disc 112. Optical head 110 is supported by a support assembly 120 that includes an actuator arm 122. Actuator arm 122, optical module 102, and enclosed optical path 106 are all supported by a spindle 124, which rotates about a central axis 126. As spindle 124 rotates, head 110 moves to different radial positions across disc 112 and enclosed optical path 106 rotates to remain aligned with optical head 110. Servo controller 118 rotates spindle 124 by controlling a motor 128 connected to spindle 124 based on servo information read from the disc, and a desired position produced by control module 116. Together, servo controller 118, motor 128, and spindle 124 form an actuator for positioning the head over the disc. Other features of embodiments of the present invention such as the spatial filter illustrated in FIG. 4, are also considered part of optical storage system 100.
FIG. 2A diagrammatically illustrates how a pinhole aperture can be added to one embodiment of a near field optical recording head 110A. Recording head 110A, which diagrammatically illustrates some features of a first embodiment of head 110, includes objective lens 202 and SIL 204 mounted on or coupled to slider body 205. Aperture 206 can be formed by depositing a thin metallic film 208 on the bottom of SIL 204 and etching film 208 with a Focused Ion Beam, which is capable of producing pinholes as small as 10 nm in diameter.
FIG. 2B diagrammatically illustrates a pinhole aperture added to a more conventional recording head having a single objective lens, but no SIL. Recording head 110B, which diagrammatically illustrates some features of a second embodiment of head 110, includes objective lens 216 and optical substrate 220 mounted on or coupled to slider body 218. Aperture 222 is formed in metallic layer 224 deposited and etched on optical substrate 220. Optical substrate 220 can be made from any of a wide variety of known light transmissive substrate materials and can be of arbitrary thickness, provided that the spherical aberration introduced by the substrate is accounted for in the design of the objective lens. Pinhole apertures 206 and 222 can have circular, rectangular, or other shapes. Characteristics of pinhole apertures 206 and 222, as well as other features of heads 110, 110A and 110B which are not illustrated in FIGS. 1, 2A and 2B, are discussed below. Further, optional thin film optical stack 209, which can be included in either of heads 110A or 110B, are discussed below with reference to FIG. 4.
To be effective, the pinhole aperture dimensions must be smaller than the focused spot size on surface 113 of disc 112, and the distance dA (see FIGS. 2A and 2B) from the pinhole aperture to surface 113 must be well within the depth of field of the beam diffracted by the aperture. The near field optical recording heads of the invention fly at less than one wavelength of the light source above the disc surface. The increase in areal density afforded by superresolution is obtained at the expense of the laser power that can be delivered to the disc. The aperture transmission τ for a focused spot assumed to Gaussian (Full-Width-at-Half-Maximum=F) and a pinhole assumed to be circular (diameter=D) is given by:
This relationship is plotted in FIG. 3. Note that the fraction of power transmitted by the aperture which actually couples into the media is a strong function of the media design and fly height.
The light which is internally reflected within the recording head at the pinhole aperture (referred to herein as the retro-reflected beam) will add coherently to the light which is reflected from the media and transmitted back through the aperture. In general, the optical media can be optimized to account for the presence of the retro-reflected beam. However, if the retro-reflected beam does have a negative impact on the data readout signals, it can be substantially reduced using spatial filtering as shown in FIG. 4.
FIG. 4 illustrates head 110A with a spatial filter 402 to reduce the negative impact of the retro-reflected beam on the data readout signals. Spatial filter 402 includes lens 404 and second pinhole aperture 406 formed in layer or material 408. Light beam 410 from light reflected at disc surface 113 through pinhole aperture 206, SIL 204 and objective lens 202 is indicative of data read from surface 113. Light beam 410 is reflected toward filter 402 by mirror 108. Filter 402 receives light beam 410 and lens 404 focuses light beam 410 on pinhole aperture 406 to thereby reduce the impact of the retro-reflected beam on the data readout signal communicated in light beam 110.
Pinhole aperture 206 is imaged with some magnification factor M>1 onto pinhole aperture 406, and the diameter of pinhole aperture 406 is chosen to be a factor of M larger than that of pinhole aperture 206. In the case of phase change media, only a density signal (also called central aperture or sum signal) is required, and photo detector 410 can be placed behind pinhole aperture 406. Light transmitted through pinhole aperture 406, have a reduced retro-reflected beam effect, is detected by photo detector 410 for retrieval of information stored on disc 112. For M-O media, the beam transmitted by pinhole aperture 406 must be at least partially recollimated and passed through the standard optics required for differential detection.
As an alternative to the spatial filtering illustrated in FIG. 4, additional thin-film coating 209 on the bottom of the SIL 204 (FIG. 2A) or substrate 220 (FIG. 2B) can be added to reduce the reflected light or to convert the retro-reflected light to enhance the signal amplitude during reading. The pinhole apertures 206 and 222 are also formed in thin film optical stack 209 and act as a partially reflective mask. Optical stack or coating 209 optimizes performance during reading by converting the phase of the retro-reflected light such that light from the reflective portion of the mask adds coherently to light reflected from the disc surface and passing through the pinhole aperture. The result is enhanced read signal amplitude.
As a rough estimate of how much spatial resolution is gained by using a pinhole aperture, consider the case where two reflective delta-function slits located on the disc surface at an in-track location or distance are to be separately identified (resolved) and assume a simple convolutional model for readout. In FIGS. 5A-5D the two reflective delta function slits on the disc surface to be identified are assumed to be separated in an in-track direction by a distance S=F, where F is the Full-Width-at-Half-Maximum (FWHM) of the Gaussian beam, and are assumed to be located at an in-track position or distance X (where X=�0.5F). Based on the Sparrow criteria for resolution (see T. R. Corle and G. S. Kino, "Confocal Scanning Optical Microscopy and Related Imaging Systems," p. 24, Academic Press 1996), the two peaks are now just barely resolved. According to this criterion, two peaks are just resolved when the signal level at the midpoint equals the maximum value of either peak measured separately. FIG. 5B illustrates that when a circular aperture of diameter D=F is added, the same two slits are much better resolved. In fact, there is no inter symbol interference at all in this particular case.
To quantify the improvement in resolution due to the aperture, it must be determined how much the slit separation S can be reduced so that the two peaks are again just barely resolved. In FIGS. 5C and 5D, it can be seen that when the slit separation is reduced by 25%, the peaks are just barely resolved using the D=F aperture, and not at all resolvable without an aperture. This means that the spatial resolution has increased by a factor of 1/0.75=1.33, and thus the areal density and disc capacity can increase by a factor of (1/0.75)2=1.78 beyond that which is achievable without the aperture.
FIG. 6A is a plot illustrating the minimum resolvable slit separation S versus aperture diameter D. Using the relationship illustrated, one can obtain from this the estimated Areal Density or Capacity Gain C shown in FIG. 3. FIG. 6B shows that the capacity gain C is simply proportional to the reciprocal of the aperture transmission τ. The following Examples further illustrate these features of the invention:
For an optical head 110A such as shown in FIG. 2A, assume a laser wavelength of 830 nm, which is very attractive for this application since devices capable of supplying 100 mW are currently commercially available. Assume also that the objective lens has a moderate numerical aperture (NA)=0.55, and that the index of the SIL is N=2.0. The FWHM of the focused beam is then F≈415 nm, and this would afford an areal density on the order of 5 Gb/in2. If one assumes that 10 mW of power will be required at the disc, and that the optical head is 50% efficient at getting light from the laser to pinhole aperture 206, then the transmission of the aperture must be at least 20%. From FIG. 3 it can be seen that τ=20% requires a pinhole diameter D≈250 nm, and this produces an areal density increase C of approximately 4 times, or 20 Gb/in2.
To allow for tracking, a servo can be used which moves the entire slider and attached optics in the cross-track direction. On the other hand, in order to use conventional tracking servos which displace the focused spot along the cross-track direction, a rectangular slit aperture can be used instead of a circular aperture. FIG. 7 illustrates rectangular slit aperture 700 which can be used as pinhole apertures 206 and 222. Referring to the geometry shown in FIG. 7, slit length L of pinhole aperture 700 can be any value greater than or equal to T+2F, where T is the desired tracking range. Slit length L is chosen to be large enough to accommodate expected track variations due to disc decentering and spindle runout. In general, it is preferred that length L of aperture 700 be as large as possible in order to increase the tolerance for centering the focused beam or spot 710 along the length of the slit aperture 700. Assuming that L is very large compared to F (the diameter of the spot focused on surface 113), the transmission τ of the slit as a function of the slit width W relative to the FWHM of the focused spot is given by:
Again using the Sparrow criterion, the in-track slit width W produces a spatial resolution enhancement F/W (for W≦F) along the in-track direction. The areal density and capacity of the disk therefore increase by that same factor. FIG. 8 illustrates the aperture transmission and capacity increase C as a function of W/F.
When using a rectangular slit aperture, the retro-reflected beam can be reduced using a spatial filter as shown in FIG. 4. With rectangular slit apertures, pinhole 206 and its image pinhole 406 are replaced by first and second rectangular slits.
If, as in example 1, one wishes to increase the areal density by a factor of four then using the relationship illustrated in FIG. 8 a slit must be chosen which has a width W=F/4, and the transmission τ of the aperture will be approximately 24%.
In order to provide optimum use of laser power during readout from and writing to the media, separate read and write slit apertures are proposed as shown in FIG. 9. Optical mask 900, which is for example formed using metallic films or layers 208 and 224 in heads 110A and 110B, defines readback rectangular slit aperture 910, write rectangular slit aperture 920, and circular alignment aperture 930. FIG. 9 presents a bottom view of optical mask 900, and therefore is indicative of a bottom view of an embodiment of the optical recording heads of the invention.
By using narrow slit 910 for readback, high resolution of written data can be achieved. In practice however, narrow slit 910 will produce low transmission of power to the media and thus require very large, and perhaps unattainable, amounts of laser power to permit writing of data on surface 113 of media 112. Therefore write slit aperture 920, which is wider than readback slit aperture 910, is included to permit efficient writing of data. Write slit aperture 920 is in a preferred embodiment between two and eight times wider than read slit 910 (i.e., 2W1<W2<8W1), but still less than the FWHM of the incident focused beam.
The wider writing slit 920 allows for higher transmission of laser power to heat the media 112 when writing data. When used in combination with Magnetic Field Modulation (MFM)—where the magnetization of the media is dynamically changed by changing the magnetic field applied to the media—sharp transitions are obtained between marks (i.e., between data domains on the media). The high resolution afforded by the sharp transitions can then made resolvable by the narrow slit 910 used to read the data.
FIG. 10 is a diagrammatic illustration of head 110 having optical mask 900 formed on a bottom surface of the slider body 950 of head 110. The representation of optical mask 900 on the slider body of head 110 is intended to represent both the optical mask embodiments illustrated in FIGS. 2A and 2B. Therefore, optical mask 900 can be formed on either of a bottom surface of SIL 204 (FIG. 2A) or on a bottom surface of substrate 220 (FIG. 2B).
As illustrated in FIG. 10, a turning mirror 955 attached to a 2-axis micro electromechanical system (MEMS) device 957 redirects light beam 960 toward objective lens 958, which focuses the beam on the apertures of optical mask 900. MEMS device 957 is used for: 1) tracking during read operations, by sweeping the focused beam along the lengths L of slit aperture 920, and 2) switching between read to write modes by sweeping the beam in the perpendicular direction between the read and write slits 920 and 910.
In order to provide for the initial optical alignment of the slit apertures, pinhole aperture 930 is placed between the reading slit aperture 920 and the writing slit aperture 910. When the pinhole aperture 930 is illuminated from below the slider with a focused beam, the optical components above the slider (e.g., SIL collimating lens, etc) can be properly aligned with respect to the slits.
Although the present invention has been described with reference to preferred embodiments, workers skilled in the art will recognize that changes may be made in form and detail without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. For example, each of the various recording head embodiments illustrated in the FIGS. should be construed to include the separate read and write pinhole apertures discussed above. Also, each of the pinhole apertures can be any of a variety of shapes (including circular and rectangular, for example) and can have a wide range of dimensions.

text: 'Power-Curve Society' examines rising economic inequality, challenges to existing institutions and conceptions of value, and an imminent "personal data revolution" WASHINGTON, Feb. 11, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Aspen Institute Communications and Society Program today released a report that offers a sweeping look at how technological innovation is restructuring productivity and lays out the social and economic impact resulting from these changes. " Power-Curve Society: The Future of Innovation, Opportunity and Social Equity in the Emerging Networked Economy," written by David Bollier , addresses the growing concern about the technological displacement of jobs, stagnant middle class income, and wealth disparities in an emerging "winner-take-all" economy. It also examines cutting-edge innovations in personal data ecosystems which could potentially unlock a revolutionary wave of individual economic empowerment. Read it at http://as.pn/powercurve. On Twitter: use #powercurve and follow @aspencs. The report derives from the Aspen Institute's Communications and Society Program's 21st annual Roundtable on Information Technology, held in Aspen last August. It includes insights from MIT Media Lab Director Joi Ito , Federal Communications Commission Chairman Julius Genachowski , Cisco's Padmasree Warrior , MIT Economists Andrew McAfee and Erik Brynjolfsson , Reputation.com CEO Michael Fertik , and Khan Academy President and CEO Shantanu Sinha , among many others. " Power-Curve Society" considers the broad implications of a globally networked economy that allows greater ease of transactions but relies less on human workers to carry them out. In this emerging technologically accelerated economy, wealth increasingly concentrates in the hands of a few rather than spreading itself out across the larger population (i.e., the traditional "bell curve" of normal distributions). The Report explores the mechanisms of this phenomenon and its suspected role in "hollowing out" the American middle class. It also questions contemporary measurements of equality, well-being and value in the digital age; and it surveys the ways that cloud computing, Big Data and collaboration are redefining work and commerce. Along with examining the historical relationship between innovation and productivity, "Power-Curve Society" assesses the increasing speed by which new technologies are outpacing social and institutional capabilities. It then presents groundbreaking new frameworks for rethinking entrenched notions of jobs, learning, skills, entrepreneurship and public policy to better brace everyone, rich and poor, for the unrelenting future.

- Dark Matte Charcoal Powder Coated Finish
- Flow Formed Barrel - Light and Strong - 23-26lbs
- One-Piece Aluminum Wheel
- RTR Center Cap Included
- 19/20x9.5 +33 Offset - Front or Rear
- 19/20x10.5 +45 Offset - Rear Only
- Fits All 05-17 Mustangs
DESCRIPTIONThe RTR Tech 7 Wheel was designed and developed by Vaughn Gittin Jr. and features 14 spokes that converge at the lip to create a unique seven point design. The RTR Tech 7 Wheel is the ideal appearance upgrade for your late model Mustang.
Flow Formed. Flow-Forming is a unique casting and forming process that results in a wheel that is similar in strength to that of a forged wheel. The wheel is first low pressure cast in aluminum and is rapidly cooled to enhance its elastic strength and durability. The casting is then placed in a special flow forming tool that heats the wheel while rollers press against the barrel to pull the rim into its final width and shape. This "stretching" process improves the grain structure of the aluminum making the wheel much stronger and lighter than a standard cast aluminum wheel.This RTR wheel only weighs 23lbs (19"x9.5").
Matte Charcoal Finish. Completed in dark charcoal features a durable matte powder coated finish for a stealthy appearance that is tough enough to stand up against the hazards of everyday driving. Including road chips and pitting for many years of tire burning enjoyment.
- RTR TECH 7 Wheels are available in the following sizes:

Weil Gotshal & Manges has posted a 22 per cent hike in average profit for the 2008 financial year.
The US firm's London office grew profit per equity partner (PEP) from £1.35m in 2007 up to £1.65m last year. Weil's revenue saw a 2.3 per cent increase from £57m last year to £58.3m in 2008.
Last month, The Lawyer revealed Weil's global revenue hike of 4 per cent from $1.18bn up to $1.23bn in 2008. Firmwide PEP also increased though by a significantly lower percentage than London. Firmwide PEP grew by 7.5 per cent from $2.14m up to $2.3m last year.
Last year Weil made a number of key hires in the London office including corporate star Pete King who joined from Shearman & Sterling in July (7 July 2009).
Weil also snared Cadwalader Wickersham & Taft restructuring partner Tony Horspool and finance partner Stuart Hill from O'Melveny & Myers last year.
In the US the firm landed lead roles on a number of high-profile deals during 2008, including Lehman Brothers' bankruptcy.

How to change my average face to attractive cute person? (photo)
how to change my average look with surgery can a doctor make my face attractive-do i need a nose job to make my nose smaller and a facelift cause im fat to make my face less round and more straight line
Doctor Answers 2
How to change my average face to attractive cute person?
Victor,I do not see a profile photo, however your nasal tip can be refined as it is somewhat bulbous. There may be a bump or curve to the nasal profile which can be corrected. You should post a picture to better evaluate you.
Make my Face Attractive
Dear victorcomp, A side profile photograph would be helpful to better determine if you have a weak chin at all and would be a candidate for chin augmentation. From the frontal view if you would like a more chiseled appearance to your face then you can consider buccal fat pad removal, possible sub-mental liposuction. If your nose bothers you then you would be a candidate for rhinoplasty to slightly refine your nose while still keeping a masculine appearance. The video above is an example of these combination procedures. The link below for rhinoplasty before and afters. Best regards, Michael V. Elam, M.D.
