After World War I, unions began their losing and lethal battle with textile owners across the South.
Our goal is to bring global awareness to a Peruvian textile industry.
A textile factory moves south of the border, and a town loses its mainstay of employment.
The Marianas needed Abramoff only because the U.S. placed restrictions on Chinese textile exports into the U.S. markets.
When Israel did not admit in the '60's to establishing a nuclear reactor in Dimona, it claimed it was a 'textile factory.'
From this we get some idea as to how far the Greeks had progressed in the textile arts.
In addition to the textile goods, cottonseed-oil is an important product.
The following prominent firms dealing in textile supplies are named here to assist the teachers in writing for supplies.
The imports are chiefly coal, machinery, textile goods, and sugar.
The strike epidemic affected even the girls who worked in the textile factories.
1620s, from Latin textilis "woven, fabric, cloth," noun use of textilis "woven," from texere "to weave," from PIE root *tek- "to make" (see texture).

Vince Vaughn Has The Insane Laws
A new relationship comedy
The Dilemma might not have been the biggest box office earner for either star Vince Vaughn or studio Universal, but the executives clearly want to stay working with the man, dusting off comedy script The Insane Laws that Sony had shoved into turnaround and developing it as a vehicle for the comedy actor.
It doesn't hurt that the screenplay was written by Jeremy Garelick, who was responsible for The Break-Up's script, a hefty hit for all involved.
The concept, according to The Hollywood Reporter, is based on Garelick's own life, and follows what happens when the grown up children of two best friends fall in love, with one man's daughter pregnant by his pal's son. Comedy complications ahoy! At least, that's the plan.
Sony nabbed the script back in 2009, put Garelick in the director's chair and started to develop it, but work stalled and it was consigned to limbo. It looks like Universal will be putting Garelick back in charge and Vaughn will produce through his Wild West Picture Show Banner. Can a phone call to Kevin James or Jon Favreau be far behind? Well, given that the collaborations with those two spawned Couples Retreat and The Dilemma, we're guessing that Vaughn might seek out someone new.

Hi, I had problems with logging into admin section. I thought it was made by bad password. So I replaced the password directly in phpmyadmin with new password (encrypted in md5). The problem continues. When I log in, there is no message and the page reloades. What to do??
Which version of OpenCart are you using? Have you upgraded your store lately? Can you access the server and check the error_log? Folder and file permissions should also be checked.
Version 1.4.7. I do not know how to upgrade, so not, but now I am going to look at some help and try to upgrade. I can get to database or ftp, where to find error_log? thanks
If error_log is in logs.txt in system folder, there is no mention about login errors.

Cornmeal Waffles with Apricot-Cherry Compote
This rendition of a breakfast favorite owes its substantial crunch to yellow cornmeal and its subtle tang to buttermilk. Warm, syrupy nectar from the fruit compote seeps into the waffles for a touch of sweetness. A dollop of creme fraiche blended with confectioners' sugar adds another layer of texture and taste.
- Yield: Makes 6
Source: Martha Stewart Living, June 2006
- 8 ounces creme fraiche
- 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup coarse yellow cornmeal
- 3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups low-fat buttermilk
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- Apricot-Cherry Compote
Whisk together creme fraiche and confectioners' sugar in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use (up to overnight).
Whisk together flour, cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla in a small bowl. Add egg mixture to flour mixture; stir until combined. Add oil and butter; whisk until smooth.
Heat a waffle iron (preferably Belgian-style). Ladle 1/2 cup batter into each mold. Cook according to manufacturer's instructions until golden brown. Place waffles in a 200-degree oven to keep warm while you make the rest. Serve topped with compote and sweetened creme fraiche.

Timing applications of preemergence herbicides
A recent trend in weed management has been earlier applications of preemergence herbicides, with products being applied four to six weeks ahead of planting. Although there can be benefits to this strategy, putting the herbicide on too early may result in decreased performance. Growers need to carefully evaluate the risks and benefits of different application timings to develop the most efficient weed management system.
Benefits of early application
All preemergence herbicides require rainfall to move them into the soil profile and make them available to emerging weeds. Applying the herbicide ahead of planting can reduce the risk of poor performance due to lack of rain after application because the herbicide is applied prior to major weed emergence events.
In no-till systems, early preplant applications can eliminate the need for burndown herbicides such as Roundup, Touchdown, or Gramoxone Extra. The herbicides are applied prior to emergence of most species, and in many cases, the preemergence products also have some foliar activity on emerged weeds and will kill small seedlings.
Convenience is also a major driving force in the movement towards earlier applications. Completing herbicide application in early April frees growers from this task when conditions become favorable for planting.
Risks of early application
Applying the herbicide ahead of planting reduces the length of weed control provided after the crop is planted. If the herbicide breaks down too quickly, the grower will be faced with making supplementary control strategies or accepting poor weed control. The length of control provided by the herbicide will be influenced by the herbicide's persistence, environmental conditions, and target weed species. Early applications pose a greater risk in fields with difficult-to-control species (woolly cupgrass, waterhemp, etc.).
Balancing risks and benefits
The optimum application time for preemergence herbicides is dependent upon both the grower's management skills and environmental conditions. In systems where tillage is used to prepare a seedbed and the grower is willing to use a rotary hoe when needed, applications made shortly before or after planting will provide the most consistent control. The tasks of final seedbed preparation, planting and herbicide application must be completed in a relatively narrow time frame (2-3 days) for optimum performance.
In no-till systems, or systems in which growers are unable or unwilling to supplement preemergence herbicides with rotary hoeing, more consistent control can be achieved by applying the herbicide one to three weeks ahead of planting. If tillage is used following application for seedbed preparation, operate the tool as shallow as possible while maintaining uniform mixing of the soil.
The benefits of early applications generally occur in the two to three weeks prior to planting. Applications made earlier than this should be viewed primarily for convenience rather than performance. The level of risk associated with early applications is dependent largely upon weather conditions. If planting or crop development is delayed due to weather, fields where herbicides were applied in early April will be more prone to late-season weed escapes than fields where herbicides were applied closer to planting.

Okay, so my Verizon Contract is up in the beginning of August. I'm paying a decent price on Verizon right now, because I wanted to lower my bills and I mostly use WiFi, except for GPS and places I can't get WiFi when out. I only pay for 500mb data and usually I'm lucky if I use 250mb. I don't like having to worry though about data, just in case I happen to need more.
I've been reading a little online and see that Cricket just acquired AIO wireless, so more coverage and saying better than straight talk, because they don't throttle until over 5 or 7gig (can't remember which), where Straight Talk is something like over 2.5gig. Either one would be fine. I know not everyone is able to get the Verizon Note 2 to work with Straight Talk. I checked a Cricket Dealer and they said all they have to do is put a sim card in to check. Both services, would be pretty cheap for unlimited talk, text, and data. I don't really need all the data as I've said, but would be nice to have it. The only other option is a big carrier, like AT&T where not really saving that much, but is an option. I could always stick with Verizon if I HAD to, but kind of fed up with them and only keep them for their great coverage.
Ideally, I want to keep my Verizon Galaxy Note 2, since I've only had it since last Halloween. So still a pretty new phone. Unfortunately, Cricket Wireless, doesn't carry the Notes, just the S5, which I'm not interested in. Maybe the Note 4, if I hold out until October or so, depending on when it comes out and the reviews. I didn't get the Note 3, because of all the problems when It first came out. So that's a strike against Cricket, especially if I can't get my Note 2 to work on it.
I have a few questions though.
1. I've been waiting to use Google Wallet Tap to Pay for a long time and am using it on my Note 2 without problems, I read the Note 3 cannot use this option, when looking at the phones that had that compatibility. If I go with Cricket Wireless or Straight Talk with my Note 2, will I be able to use the NFC Google Wallet Tap to Pay option, since I will not be with Verizon anymore? (I have the special Sim card from Verizon that enabled me to use this on my Note 2, not sure if it'll work after leaving them. I believe the guy from Cricket said there is no special sim card for that, but can't remember now.)
2. If I go Straight Talk and I get everything to work, Text with pics and Video ability and Data also, do I have to have my phone Flashed? I know this was asked in another question on the forum, but never answered.
3. If I do get my phone Flashed for Straight Talk to work, is it then unusable if I ever decide to go back to Verizon Wireless? Or is there a way to Flash Back to work on Verizon. Not sure if there is a waiting period for Verizon if I leave them and decide I don't like either Cricket or Straight Talk, and decide to go back. Probably would try AT&T before that though, and I would be able to get a newer phone like the Note 4 when it comes out.
Thanks in advance for any input you can give me. :)

customer reviews for remote control motorized
"I Love them!!"
By Jo from CT
I have three large windows in an A frame house that are about 20' high at the top. Have never been able to put blinds there and they are south facing hence the sun shines in during much of the day making it uncomfortable sittin in some areas of the room. When these went on sale for almost half price I took a chance on them with the remote controls and double cell for insulation fro heat and cold. They were amazingly easy to install even though the windows were so high. Now with a touch of a button I can raise and lower them at will!!! am waiting for another sale to get some more even though the other windows are not a problem like the ones I just got.View this product

This week I had the opportunity to speak at Spelman College's 8th Annual Seven Women at the Cross. For those who are not familiar with Seven Women at the Cross Services it is a time when women preachers and speakers recount the last seven days of Christ living on Earth through the stories of the women he met on his way to the Cross. So, I thought I would share with you the speech I gave about the widow woman in Mark 12:41. Of course, it is a black feminist interpretation of the text.
"A poor widow came and put in two small cooper coins, which are worth a penny. Then he called his disciple and said to them, "Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing out of their abundance; but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, all she had to live on" (Mark 12: 41)
The story of the widow woman in Mark 12:41 is fundamentally a story about women pursuing their purpose . . . their most burning desire . . . that which calls them back to their center . . . irrespective of what it may cost them. And because they are widows the cost is high. You see, it's a miserable existence to be a widow woman in a patriarchal culture because you are not valuable. To make you valuable in Biblical times as a woman you had to fulfill your purpose of first being a good daughter then a good wife, and most importantly being a good mother meaning you spent most of your time catering to the wishes of your father, your husband, and your children. That was your purpose.

A Desert Vista High School alum has been confirmed to be one of the victims in the mass shooting in Aurora, Colo., last week, according to officials in that state.
Alexander Teves, 24, was one of 12 victims who died from gunshot wounds during the shooting rampage at the midnight premiere of "The Dark Night Rises."
According to the Arapahoe County Coroner's Office, Teves died on the scene at the time of the shooting.
Teves graduated from Desert Vista in 2006 and had just graduated from the University of Denver in June with a master's degree in counseling psychology.
"The university extends its deepest condolences to his family and friends, including the many current students and faculty who knew and worked with Alex," the university said in a statement.
On Friday, reported friends of Teves' sent out their condolences on Twitter.
A woman named Caitlin tweeted "Alex Teves was one of the best men I ever knew. The world isn't as good a place without him."

Texas Department of Criminal Justice
To enhance public safety by providing sex offender evaluation, education, and treatment.
Sex Offender Education Program (SOEP) consists of a four-month curriculum to assist sex offenders determined to pose a lower re-offense risk or who may be releasing to an extended period of supervision during which they may participate in treatment. This curriculum is conducted in a didactic format, providing information on a variety of topics (e.g., Healthy Sexuality, Anger and Stress Management, Interpersonal Relationships, Cognitive Restructuring) and is intended to provide the information necessary to impact offenders lacking knowledge to effect change in their patterns of thinking.
Sex Offender Treatment Program (SOTP) consists of an eighteen-month intensive treatment program in a therapeutic community environment that allow offenders immediate feedback about their behavior and treatment progress (SOTP-18) and a nine-month moderate intensity program to assist sex offenders determined to pose a higher and more moderate re-offense risk respectively (SOTP-9). The programs involve three treatment phases employing a cognitive-behavioral model. The primary goal of the programs is to reduce the rate of re-offense and move the participants toward a more pro-social lifestyle.
It is the policy of the SORP to provide meaningful sex offender evaluation, education, and treatment to all incarcerated sex offenders, in Texas Department of Criminal Justice, who are program eligible.

He tentatively suggested that the text is a pastiche compiled by a modern forger with an elementary grasp of Coptic.
Instead, we have irony, allusion, meta commentary, fragmentation, parody, and pastiche.
Her self-produced videos as Grant—a pastiche of nostalgic Americana imagery—were remarkably similar to that of "Video Games."
And what brought her to the top of this zeitgeist pyramid were her unrivaled skills in the post-modern art of pastiche.
By this time Byron had turned into a kind of pastiche of himself.
It is an interesting study to divide the pastiche from the real.
If it bear the distinct marks of being a Neo-platonic pastiche, we may reject it without hesitation.
I believe that no more perfect example of pastiche exists in the language.
Epstein is in every respect superior to the Serbian sculptor, in whose work there can be no question of anything but pastiche.
This poem is written as a folk-story, in the style of the Byliny, and it in no way resembles a pastiche.

US prison guard killed by inmate
An inmate at a high-security Pennsylvania jail has killed a guard, the first time a federal prison officer has died at work in almost five years.
Eric Williams, 34, was attacked with a homemade weapon by an unnamed inmate.
Canaan prison officials would not say how Williams died on Monday night, but his sister said a coroner had told her he was stabbed multiple times.
The last time a federal officer died on the job was in June 2008 in California, according to the Bureau of Prisons.
Canaan prison warden David Ebbert said in a statement: "This is clearly the darkest day in our institution's short history.
"We are in shock over this senseless loss of a colleague and friend."
At least three inmates have been killed at the jail, which opened in 2005 in Waymart, Pennsylvania.
The federal prison, which is 20 miles (32km) outside Scranton, houses 1,350 male inmates.
Williams, who became a guard at Canaan in September 2011, was working in a housing unit on Monday night when the inmate attacked him, officials said.
Other prison staff restrained the attacker and Williams was brought to hospital, where he was pronounced dead shortly before midnight.
The prison was put on lockdown, officials said.
The dead man's sister, Lauren Williams, told the Associated Press news agency: "There wasn't a mean bone in him.
"He was not confrontational at all. He's never been in a fight.''
She said Williams had never reported any problems at work.
"He's already in jail," Ms Williams said of her brother's attacker. "How do you get your justice?"
Officials said an FBI investigation was underway into the death of Williams.

Have UK Immigration Law Questions? Get Answers Now.
my wife has a 6 months visit visa, we are only present in the UK, my wife and i are not settled in the UK, as she does not have a settled status or ILR, A Lawyer once told me that i have to be Resident, meaning that i should be living in the UK for at least 6 months of the year. (Often referred to as 'habitually resident').
Also the same lawyer told me, "If the child's parent becomes SETTLED in the UK, the child would be entitled to register as a UK National, As i am not SETTLED, the child would not automatically obtain UK Citizenship."
He Literally interpreted the Section 1(3)
Section 1(3) applications - children born in the United Kingdom to parents who are now settled in the United Kingdom
If the child's parent has become settled in the United Kingdom or becomes a British citizen, the child will have an entitlement to register as a British citizen. This registration would be under section 1(3) of the British Nationality Act 1981.
but the other site is quite different saying
If you were born in the United Kingdom on or after 1 January 1983
If you were born in the United Kingdom on or after 1 January 1983, you are a British citizen if at the time of your birth one of your parents was:
Is there any extra requirements for my son to be British, like his parents should be settled or resident in the UK (not only present with British nationality)?
Or being born in UK + father British (not resident and not settled)= British Son
Also if my wife is alone in UK (without me)would it differ? i.e I am not present.

She says 'definitely' when asked whether she would want to star in 'Wanted 2', adding the first movie was one of a kind.
Kristen Stewart has fueled reports she is to replace Angelina Jolie in a "Wanted (2008)" sequel - insisting she would "definitely" accept the role as long as the movie is as "good" as the original. The "Twilight" actress is the favorite to take over from the Oscar-winner as the follow-up's female lead opposite James McAvoy, after Jolie ruled out a return to the assassin action drama.
Stewart admits she is excited by the prospect of stepping into Jolie's role - but only if the script meets her expectations. She tells MTV.com, "(I would) definitely (take the role), as long as it was good and I mean, it's really exciting to see (that as an opportunity). Wanted was a great movie. James McAvoy makes that movie different from most other action movies because he's a real guy - you're so with him."
"I feel like most action movies don't have that. So if it had that, definitely. But I wouldn't just want to be in a mindless blow-up movie. I'm not into it."

Characteristics of Patients Who Avoid Wheat and Gluten in the Absence of Celiac Disease

- Rating:
Celiac.com 02/11/2014 - More and more people are reporting gastrointestinal symptoms that improve when wheat and/or gluten are removed from the diet. There is a diverse group of people who avoid wheat and/or gluten (PWAWGs), and who predominantly self-diagnose prior to presenting for clinical evaluation for celiac disease.
A team of researchers recently set out to compare patients who avoid wheat and/or gluten against patients with celiac disease, and with healthy control subjects. The research team included A. Tavakkoli, S.K. Lewis, C.A. Tennyson, B. Lebwohl, and P.H. Green, all with the Department of Medicine of the Celiac Disease Center at Columbia University in New York, NY.
The team set out to characterize PWAWGs who were receiving treatment at a tertiary care referral center and to compare them to patients with celiac disease, and with subjects from the National Health and Nutrition examination survey (NHANES). The team conducted a cross-sectional study to evaluate patients seen by four gastroenterologists at a celiac disease referral center. They compared baseline characteristics, laboratory values, and medical comorbidities for these patients against results for celiac disease patients who presented at the same center, as well as for subjects enrolled in NHANES.
The team compared results for eighty-four PWAWGs against results for 585 CD patients and 2,686 NHANES patients. The found that doctors made a total of thirty-two alternative diagnoses in 25 PWAWGs (30%). Diagnoses included small intestinal bacterial overgrowth and fructose/lactose intolerance.
When compared to patients with celiac patients, PWAWGs had similar body mass index (BMI, 23.1 vs. 23.5, p = 0.54) and mean hemoglobin value (13.4 vs. 13.3, p = 0.6). When compared to male and female patients in NHANES, PWAWGS showed lower BMI, folate, and mean hemoglobin values, while both male and female PWAWGs had a lower prevalence of hypertension.
While there are similarities between celiac disease patients and PWAWGs that could arise from shared HLA haplotypes or result from the gluten-free diet, alternative diagnoses are common in these patients. PWAWGs have a similar cardiovascular profile as celiac disease patients in terms of lower BMI and lower prevalence of hypertension.

Obviously the whole study is not presented, but the article leaves me asking some questions. The alternate diagnoses do not explain why the PWAWGs improved on a gluten-free diet. Were the confirmed celiac patients also tested for intestinal bacteria overgrowth and fructose/lactose intolerance? Without that data it is impossible to assess the significance. The article seems to suggest that having any of the alternative problems precludes having a problem with gluten intolerance. It is my understanding that the diagnosis of NCGI requires two stages (1) improvement on gluten-free diet and (2) a gluten challenge to see if symptoms return. Is this study saying that they dismissed NCGI purely on the basis of the presence of other possible diagnoses?

Dear Mr. Hageman;
Thank you for all of the valuable responses you have posted on these forums. I have learned a great deal from them. The Interstate Compact system can be very confusing. I was transferred from MN to CO two years ago on a "Stay of Adjudication" sentence for "Receiving Stolen Property" and because of the dollar amount involved it was at a felony level. With that came ten years of probation, and a whole lot of legal problems. I have been fighting "Verifications Inc." one of the largest background investigations companies for designating me as a convicted felon even though a Stay of Adjudication means no conviction has been entered into the court. A result of which is a significant impact on my career in Information Technology. I lost an opportunity for a permanent position with a large financial company and have lost a relationship with a contracting firm which has marketed me within the IT industry.
My question to you is in May of this year my PO in Colorado submitted a Progress Report requesting that I receive early termination of my probation due to my exemplary behavior and continued volunteer and community involvement. This is of course a "God send" because it would mean that my Stay of Adjudication would be fulfilled and I could go back to living as a non-convicted felon. What is the process for pursuing the prospect of getting released from my probation? I talked to my PO in MN and in CO with no clear answers. Specifically, how do I get released from probation when I am in the ICAOS system?
Will Wagner
Hello Mr. Wagner,
Thank you for the kind words. The Commission is proud of its website and I am pleased you find it helpful.
The Interstate Commission for Adult Offender Supervision does not play a role in the process for early terminations from supervision. A supervising officer in the receiving state can make a recommendation for early termination from supervision, however the decision is up to the probation officials and the local court in the sending state.
I don't know the specifics of your program, therefore I don't know if an early termination is possible. I suggest that you contact a MN attorney and determine if it is possible to petition the court for an early termination.

Here in February, the fine
dark branches of the almond
begin to sprout tiny clusters
of leaves, sticky to the touch.
Not far off, about the length
of my morning shadow, the grass
is littered with the petals
of the plum that less than
a week ago blazed, a living
candle in the hand of earth.
I was living far off two years
ago, fifteen floors above
119th Street when I heard
a love of my young manhood
had died mysteriously in
a public ward. I did not
go out into the streets to
walk among the cold, sullen
poor of Harlem, I did not
turn toward the filthy window
to question a distant pale sky.
I did not do anything.
The grass is coming back, some
patches already bright, though
at this hour still silvered
with dew. By noon I can stand
sweating in the free air, spading
the difficult clay for the bare
roots of a pear or apple that
will give flower and fruit longer
than I care to think about.

The school board on Wednesday fired principal Jerry Dority and counselor Yatta Collins of Tapp Middle School in Powder Springs.
School system records say a student told Collins in January she tried to hang herself in her closet. The girl had marks on her neck, but would not explain herself to Collins.
Another student claimed that day that the girl had been sexually abused by her stepfather.
Collins told Dority that day and waited two days to notify the Georgia Division of Family and Children Services.
Dority and Yatta were arrested in early March and charged with failure to report child abuse. "

In the current climate it is important for researchers to demonstrate that their publicly-funded research has had a meaningful, positive effect on some aspect of society and thus gives value for money. Consequently the onus on researchers to demonstrate the 'impact' of their research beyond the academic world is becoming more pronounced. Research proposals and reports include impact sections and the HEFCE Research Excellence Framework identifies 'the wider impact of research' as a key feature.
Thus, achieving impact has become an essential rather than desirable outcome of research in order to stand the best chance of securing further funding.
In order to achieve impact it helps to understand how it is defined by funders. The ESRC's Impact Toolkit defines impact as 'the demonstrable contribution that excellent research makes to society and the economy'. Impact is distinct from dissemination – which is the broadcasting or making public of key message and findings without measuring feedback and gathering information on how the message has been received and acted upon.
Types of impact
There are a number of types of impact such as economic/societal, academic/scientific. The emphasis is on impact outside of academia but with the proviso that research must be excellent academically or cannot achieve impact.
A key element of impact is identifying and developing relationships from the beginning of a project with the people who will assist in achieving impact when it finishes e.g. policy makers, media, industry, public sector and other academics. If the research is carried out, and findings presented in dialogue with those in a position to practically implement them in the non-academic world, the chance of achieving measurable impact is much greater.
Assessing impact
Impact is not always easy to assess and could well take place some time after a project has finished in an indirect but crucial way. On the otherhand impact could be swift and direct, for example the introduction of a a piece of software/hardware into a learning environment or a change in curriculum as a result of research. The ESRC have a number of ways of measuring impact which they are developing and making more sophisticated in the line with the rising profile of impact.
TEL and impact
The TEL programme is keenly aware of the need to demonstrate impact beyond academia. A number of projects have already begun to demonstrate how their TEL funded research could have a practical, positive impact on such areas as:
- relieving teacher's time and paperwork constraints
- addressing difficult subjects in schools in different ways
- providing better opportunities for disadvantaged people to develop skills through interacting with technology
- showing how technology can be used in learning environments to save time and money whilst providing improved learner outcomes.
For further information on impact see:

Washington DC (SPX) Jul 19, 2013
Picking up ultra-weak signals from spacecraft exploring deep in our Solar System requires cooling a detector to within a few degrees of absolute zero. Thanks to ESA's support, the technology is now available in Europe for the first time.
With future exploration missions like Gaia, BepiColombo and Juice set to deliver massive amounts of scientific data, ESA's trio of deep-space tracking antennas needed an upgrade.
The 35 m-diameter dishes in Australia, Spain and Argentina use cryogenic cooling to communicate via X-band microwave frequencies, similar to those used by radar speed detectors wielded so effectively by traffic police.
This enables communications at immense distances out to about 750 million km - equivalent to the distance from the Sun to Jupiter.
"It was necessary to upgrade the stations' receivers to improve sensitivity," says Stephane Halte, project manager at ESOC, ESA's European Space Operations Centre, Darmstadt, Germany.
"They were designed to be 'future-ready' and a data-rate upgrade was always foreseen, given the needs of new missions like Juice."
There was just one problem: the upgrade required a specific type of circuit chip - using indium phosphide - that was not available in Europe owing to international export restrictions.
If you can't buy it, build it
The chip allows a highly sensitive amplifier to operate below -253+ C, some 20+ above absolute zero.
"Upgrading the stations means an increase in the return of science data from space missions by 20%," says Stephane.
The upgrade enables ESA's 35 m-diameter antennas to perform like 40 m-class dishes, and much less power will be needed aboard the spacecraft.
"This performance boost is a significant benefit for our deep-space satellites, now exploring Mars and Venus and soon to go to Mercury, the Lagrange points and Jupiter," says Andrea Accomazzo, responsible for interplanetary mission operations at ESOC.
The last of the three ESA stations, Cebreros in Spain, was completed in June.
Boosting European competitiveness
Another company, Callisto France, is in charge of integrating the cryogenic receiver. The EU and France's Region Midi-Pyrenees recently decided to support the company's research and development efforts, aimed at ensuring a European source for various types of low-noise amplifiers.
"Europe's indium phosphide transistor has passed space qualification tests, proving the reliability of this technology. It could also be used on a satellite for communications or in an instrument package, similar to the HiFi Instrument carried by Herschel," says Stephane.
"We have developed a version of the amplifier for higher frequencies, at 32 GHz. This will increase the data-return capability for future missions even more."

Of course, while he does this, he's sucking on a cigarette and marveling at how much he's enjoying it! This director of cult classics such as Pink Flamingos, Female Trouble and Polyester takes us back to a time when it was even imaginable that someone would light up at the movies.

The common entrance to all three hibernacula was a shallow depression that resulted from an old post-hole.
From such sketches it appears that several houses might have a common entrance.
In general, the building has only one common entrance; the door of which is closed at night, and kept by a porter.
Sometimes two houses have a common entrance or the passages communicate with one another.
To which of the flat-dwellers would they be supposed to belong, if they grouped themselves at the common entrance?
There were two harbours, which had one common entrance, seventy feet broad, and shut up with chains.
As in the case of Andren, several tunnels are often made with one common entrance.
The common entrance of the tower is on the west side through four gates, which are daily opened with much form and ceremony.
He followed her through the common entrance of the apartment house into her Saal.

A BAN on tobacco displays is coming into force in England – with ministers promising it will help curb the number of young people taking up smoking.
Cigarettes and other products will have to be kept below the counter in large shops and supermar-kets, while small outlets are exempt until 2015.
Other parts of the UK are planning similar action to drive down smoking rates.
At some point, smokers will have to realise that all it does is give you a lifetime of bad breath, costs more than an average house, and then gives you cancer and an early death. Smoking is the single most stupid thing a person can do.
But this tactic will not help. As usual, government shows itself clueless about addiction – because that is what it is. Smokers can no more choose to smoke than a heroin addict can take it or leave it.
The only choice they had was the first cigarette. To end an addiction, first understand what started it.
If you really want to stop them, be harsher on cigarette makers – and shopkeepers. I have seen people openly sell cigarettes to kids. A few hundred fines here and there would not hurt.

Anna Trebunskaya's 'DWTS' Vlog: I Don't Understand Why Jaleel White Got Sent Home! (EXCLUSIVE VIDEO)
In a candid — and exclusive! — video blog for Celebuzz, Dancing with the Stars pro Anna Trebunskaya reveals her confusion over this week's elimination!
"Week seven is the classical week," she says. "For me, its one of the best themes because I think the whole ballroom comes alive."
But when it comes to the couple that got sent home, she's confused:
"Jaleel White got eliminated Tuesday," she ponders. "Why? I don't know. They looked good, they had good chemistry, their routine was very smooth, their outfits were cool and elegant."
She adds, "He was improving. He was getting better and better."
Who do you think should have gone home? Tell us in the comments below!

"Bachelor Pad": Who's Doing What With Whom In Episode 4
Last night's episode of "Bachelor Pad" was all about pitting the women of the house against each other and making them feel like dog crap. First, the contestants were all asked to complete a survey about their fellow houseguests — who do they think is the most shallow, the biggest jerk, the dumbest, etc? Then for the rose competition, they had to publicly declare who they thought got the most votes per question from the house as a whole — not necessarily who they individually thought was, say, the dumbest, but who they thought the house thought was the dumbest. Let's just say a lot of the women ended up in tears. That's because the most insulting questions were clearly designed to target the women. Who has the worst boob job? Who is the dumbest? Who is the most shallow? Sure, the guys were eligible for those last two, but no one seemed to consider that maybe, uh, Jesse B. is a heck of a lot dimmer than, say, Gwen or Natalie. In the end, Tenley got the most answers correct among the women, and that big oaf Jesse B. got the most answers right among the men, though Kovacs decided to throw the competition on the last question — the boob job one — in favor of not hurting his sort-of-girlfriend Elizabeth's feelings. She still cried.
This time, the winners got to pick one houseguest each for their date night. Tenley, of course, picked Kiptyn. They had a date that I think was probably very romantic, but also terribly boring, as both of them are soul-suckingly dull. Kiptyn confessed that he did have strong feelings for Tenley but he didn't want the rest of the house to know how serious he was about her, lest it mess up both their games. They decided to "enjoy" the fantasy suite, but agreed to play down how well the date went with the rest of the house. Still, Tenley gave Kiptyn a rose, making him safe during the next rose ceremony.
Meanwhile, Jesse B. has decided to further his flirtation with Peyton by inviting her on his one-on-one date. However, despite their earlier connection and spit-swapping last week, and the fact that he gave her a rose before their date even really began, Jesse B. totally fouled things up by acting immature. He burped in front of Peyton and NO ONE burps in front of girls named Peyton! His immaturity made her feel like his sister and, as a result, she decided that they shouldn't use the fantasy suite for any hanky panky. But with a rose in hand, she was still safe from elimination.
Back at the house, everyone else is scrambling to ensure their own safety since the house is shrinking fast. With both Kiptyn and Jesse B. safe, the girls have to choose to send home either Dave, Wes, or Kovacs. Dave seems safe in the eyes of the ladies, especially since many of the women are focused on getting rid of the couples and they're unaware of his new "relationship" with Natalie. Wes and Kovacs are really on the chopping block, with Wes really encouraging the women to focus on getting rid of the couples — i.e., Kovacs and Elizabeth and Tenley and Kiptyn.
After her boob job is insulted by the house, Kovacs seems to have a change of heart about Elizabeth, saying seeing her hurt made him realize how much he cares about her. "Bachelor Pad" is really trying to endorse the notion that if you cry in front of a dude, he will love you more. So. Not. True. Anyway, Kovacs doesn't care if he's gone home because, like, being in the Pad has made him open up more, or something.
Dave, who realizes he's in a pretty safe spot, is trying to go to bat for his boy Kovacs and is encouraging Krisily to vote off Wes. Wes, of course, is trying to convince her, Nikki, Gwen, and Peyton to vote off Kovacs. Meanwhile, the dudes (excluding Wes) are trying to decide whether to vote out Gwen or Krisily. Dave is working on getting Krisily to switch her vote from Kovacs to Wes, in exchange for making sure she doesn't go home. Meanwhile, Kiptyn is hesitant to vote off Gwen because she's never done anything to him. Kovacs and Dave agree to vote however Kiptyn does. So how did that turn out?
Well, Krisily, high off the fumes of her crush on Dave, did switch her vote and helped send Wes packing. Unfortunately, Kiptyn voted to keep Gwen, which meant Kovacs and Dave did too, so despite her going to bat for the dudes, the dudes failed her. She was pissed.
Next week: There are too many girls left, so Chris Harrison is going to send THREE home! Will the couples finally be broken up? Will Natalie and Dave's romance be exposed? Will Kiptyn and Tenley finally do something interesting? Let's hope!

- The name Altamora shows up in some very odd places. It is the name of a town in the Azores. It is a name for a village in Portugal. It is connected with lodestone compass artifacts found in a cave in New York. It is said to be the name of the flag ship of Joao Corte Real.
It may also be connected to a brass ring found on a ships mask in Newfoundland.
Of all the places this name appears the most impotant in my opinion is the small copper plate which indicates the lat. and long. of the ship named Altamora resting place in the Atlantic. It also says the ship was subject to a storm.
After Portuguese Azore govenor and leader of The Knights of Christ, Joao Corte Real,s death, his sons took over the cod fishing industry operated by the family. When the oldest son Casper did not return from fishing in 1501 his younger brother Michel sailed in 1502 to find Casper. The only recorded results of these brothers is found on Dighton rock on the east coast and has been dated to 1511.
Attached is a page from a paper I posted in Migration and diffusion about two years ago. which related to the potential west boundary of Vinland. Note: The kansas city rune stone has been proven to date after 1888 and is not related to the boundary marker as originally thought.
( In 1472 Joao Vaz Corte Real, a Portuguese nobleman with nautical skills and experience in the cod fishing industry and holding a high office in The Knights of Christ met with King Alfonso VI ofPortugal and Danish King Christian I of Denmark in the city of Sagres, Portugal for a joint treaty to explore the unclaimed lands to the west as far as the eye could see (90 degrees to the west), in the name of Portugal and establish a joint venture in the cod fishing industry. The Kings mothers were sisters from the house of Lancaster of England.
Three Danish ships whose pilots were two Germans, Pining and Pothorst and one Norwegian, Johan Scolp were to be led by Joao Vaz Corte Real.
After their return in the same year 1472, Pining was made Governor of Iceland, Pothorst was made Govemor of Frisian Islands, Johan Scolp became a noted geographer and Joao Vaz Corte Real was given Govemorship of Terceira in the Azores. The Regal Treaty made in Sagres, Portugal also gave Joao Vaz Corte Real Governorship of all new unclaimed lands to the west as far as the eye could see.
Note: A magnetic declination line 90 Degrees west of the magnetic declination line at Sagres, Portugal is a magnetic declination line that is common to the Roseau, Minnesota rune stone, The Kensington, Minnesota rune stone, and the Heavener, Oklahoma rune stone. )
