What's the difference between a Refractor, Reflector and Catadioptric telescope?
Q. What's the difference between a Refractor, Reflector and Cassegrain telescope?
Refractor - a long, thin tube where light passes in a straight line from the front objective lens directly to the eyepiece at the opposite end of the tube. A refractor telescope is viewed through one end. The refractor is better for colour rendition.
- Easy to use and consistent due to the simplicity of design.
- Good for distant terrestrial viewing
- Excellent for lunar, planetary and binary stargazing especially with larger apertures
- Sealed tube protects optics and reduces image degrading air currents
- Rugged, need little or no maintenance
- Generally have small apertures, typically 3 to 5 inches
- Less suited for viewing small and faint deep sky objects such as distant galaxies and nebulae
- Heavier, longer and bulkier than equivalent aperture reflectors and catadioptrics
- Limited practical usefulness
Good-quality refractors cost more per inch of aperture than any other kind of telescope.
Reflector - Reflecting telescopes use a huge concave parabolic mirror instead of a lens to gather and focus the light to a flat secondary mirror that in turn reflects the image out of an opening at the side of the main tube. You look through an eyepiece on the side of the tube up near the top.
- Easy to use and construct
- Excellent for faint deep sky objects such as remote galaxies, nebulae and star clusters because of their larger apertures for light gathering.
- Low in optical irregularities and deliver very bright images
- Reasonably compact and portable
- A reflector costs the least per inch of aperture compared to refractors and catadioptrics since mirrors can be produced at less cost than lenses
- Generally, not suited for terrestrial applications
- Slight light loss due to secondary obstruction when compared with refractors
- The tube is open to the air, which means dust on the optics even if the tube is kept under wraps
Reflectors may require a little more care and maintenance
Catadioptric - Catadioptric telescopes use a combination of mirrors and lenses to fold the optics and form an image. Catadioptrics are the most popular type of instrument, with the most modern design. There are two popular designs, the Schmidt-Cassegrain and the Maksutov-Cassegrain.
- In the Schmidt-Cassegrain, light enters through a thin aspheric Schmidt correcting lens, then strikes the spherical primary mirror and is reflected back up the tube to be intercepted by a small secondary mirror. The mirror then reflects the light out an opening in the rear of the instrument where the image is formed at the eyepiece.
- Most versatile type of telescope
- Best near focus capability of any type telescope
- First-rate for deep sky observing or astrophotography with fast films or CCD's
- Excellent for lunar, planetary and binary star observing plus terrestrial viewing and photography
- Closed tube design reduces image degrading air currents
- Compact and durable
- More expensive than reflectors of equal aperture
- Its appearance may not be suited to everybody's taste
- Slight light loss due to secondary mirror obstruction compared to refractors
The Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope design has basically the same advantages and disadvantages as the Schmidt. It uses a thick meniscus-correcting lens with a strong curvature and a secondary mirror that is usually an aluminised spot on the corrector. The Maksutov secondary mirror is typically smaller than the Schmidt's giving it slightly better resolution for planetary observing.
However, the Maksutov is heavier than the Schmidt and because of the thick correcting lens, it takes a long time to reach thermal stability at night in larger apertures. The Maksutov optical design typically is easier to make but requires more material for the corrector lens than the Schmidt Cassegrain.

Hidden by Catherine McKenzie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Description: When a married man suffers a sudden fatal accident, two women are shattered—his wife and someone else's—and past secrets, desires and regrets are brought to light
While walking home from work one evening, Jeff Manning is struck by a car and killed. Not one but two women fall to pieces at the news: his wife, Claire, and his co-worker Tish. Reeling from her loss, Claire must comfort her grieving son and contend with funeral arrangements, well-meaning family members and the arrival of Jeff's estranged brother—her ex-boyfriend—Tim.
With Tish's co-workers in the dark about her connection to Jeff outside the workplace, she volunteers to attend the funeral on the company's behalf, but only she knows the true risk of inserting herself into the wreckage of Jeff's life. Told through the three voices of Jeff, Tish and Claire, Hidden explores the complexity of relationships, our personal choices and the responsibilities we have to the ones we love.
"Catherine McKenzie's latest book may be her finest. HIDDEN explores the intersecting lives of a man, his wife, and a woman who may or may not be his mistress. Imaginatively constructed, filled with nail-biting tension and gracefully written, HIDDEN is a winner." — Sarah Pekkanen, author of These Girls and Skipping a Beat
"What I love about this deft, intimate novel is that here are no angels or demons here, just adults—husbands, wives, mothers, fathers—leading complex, messy, very human lives. They all struggle to weigh desire against obligation, what they want against what is right. I found myself in the impossible, wonderful position of rooting for all of them—and of missing them when the book was over." — Marisa de los Santos, author of Belong to Me and Love Walked In
"Using distinct narrative voices, Catherine McKenzie has crafted a compelling novel that kept me turning pages at a breakneck speed. Heartbreakingly honest and real, Hidden is a wonderfully relatable tale." — Tracey Garvis Graves, New York Times bestselling author of On The Island
My thoughts: I love Catherine McKenzie. I started reading her books with Spin. It was funny, intelligent, and oddly insightful. Soon I found Arranged and then Forgotten. The books were growing more complex in terms of relationships and insightfulness. If you know me, you know that I love a really good book on complex, female relationships but absolutely love an author that writes in humor that makes me laugh out loud. That is the way of Catherine McKenzie. What she may or may not know is that if we lived closer, we'd be best friends.
An observation. Not everybody is a good writer. Not every good writer writes a good book. I'm even stunned to read emails from professionals at work with Master's degrees in education who can not write. In thinking more on that fact, I realize that my gift of writing did not come with my education in educational psychology. It came from my childhood habit of keeping a journal and writing in it all through the angst of my adolescence and beyond. Because there I could be who I truly am and I could also articulate what I couldn't articulate verbally because of a neurological stutter. So I'm not a strong public speaker so I compensate with writing. Although they make me speak publicly for work so maybe I will become stronger. *Snort* I won't.
So here's the last point I want to make on Catherine McKenzie and her talent and gift of writing. She is an extremely intelligent and educated woman who also happens to practice law. I've noticed an occasional character that has some law training in her books but this is not the emphasis. The emphasis is articulating thoughts, relationships, and feelings through her words. So. She is, most likely, a gifted public speaker as well as a writer who can take those feelings we haven't quite articulated to ourselves and turn them into something nearly tangible without comfortably choosing a lawyer niche. I find that incredibly talented.
So this book is a completely different angle than any of her other books. The story is written first person, in three different voices. Jeff continues to narrate even though he died. He tells the reader of the past. He explains how he and Tish meet. How he and Tish meet again. He tells about Claire. About how he hesitated to move on expanding their relationship because she used to date her brother. Jeff gives the insights that only Jeff can give. But he doesn't reveal how important either Claire or Tish are to him. Only that they are significant to him. We are wondering until the very end (which is revealed) how important Tish was to him and whether or not he had an affair with her.
The beauty of the story is the complexity of the characters. Tish is not a vixen. She doesn't have a horrible husband. Jeff is not looking for a relationship outside his marriage. Claire is good but she questions if she may have planted seeds of doubt in Jeff's mind. They are all very human and fragile in their states of grief and relations. The way the author phrased certain ideas and experiences were finally too much for me. I got out my yellow highlighter (I did mention that I'm an educator, didn't I?) and the last quarter of the book is now filled with yellow.
This book has not yet come out in the U.S. It's only out in Canada. So all you Canadians, read it. All you Americans, just wait. You're going to love it.

I love Catherine McKenzie. Really love her. I started with Spin as well. Each book always draws me in and it's always unexpected because the premises seem unbelievable or I feel like I'm not entirely interested. I love each and every book every time. Can't wait for this one.

A couple of tutorials back we discussed the initial chapters of my white book, how they were too reference-heavy and how I should make them my own. I did the first chapter ("Building the City: The Grid") today.. part 2 to come later at some point before previews. Along with captions the 7 images above go from the the initial use of the grid in cartography and how that enabled Columbus to discover America, to the Land Ordinance Act of 1785, to the translation of that Act into the subdivision of the landscape, to Manifest Destiny as the reason for city development in the 19th century.

The signs of perimenopause are different for every woman, but generally speaking, most women experience at least some of the following symptoms, although some lucky women have no symptoms at all. Signs include weight gain, breast tenderness, lowered libido, mood swings, depression, hot flashes (or hot flushes as they are sometimes called), painful sex (often due to vaginal dryness or atrophy), erratic periods, sleep problems and incontinence. You do not have to have all these symptoms to be in the throes of peri menopause.
What causes these pre menopause symptoms and how long do they last? The answer is changing hormone levels. During perimenopause, your ovaries produce less estrogen which causes hormonal imbalances that give rise to symptoms. Of course, your levels of progesterone and testosterone also change as well. The duration of symptoms is individual: some women have symptoms for a year or so, while other women have symptoms that persist for up to ten years. If your symptoms affect your ability to function, then it is essential to get treatment. Treatment options range from synthetic drugs to bioidentical hormones, from herbal remedies to estrogen cream (I like Source Naturals Phyto-Estrogen Cream, 4 oz) to using nothing at all.
So how can you know if the symptoms that you are experiencing are due to falling hormones or might be the result of another health issue? Here's what one author has to say about the subject:
The only way to know for sure if you're in perimenopause is to have your doctor check your hormone levels.
But you won't know after one blood test. You'll have to have several blood draws over a period of several months to determine if your estrogen levels are heading south. If they are and you're very uncomfortable, talk to your doc about whether hormone replacement is safe for you.
If you notice menopause-like symptoms but blood tests don't show declining estrogen levels, your ob/gyn may want to check for other problems, such as an ovarian cyst. …
Although the signs of perimenopause could be due to other issues, one of the easiest, most convenient ways to find out if your hormone levels are falling below normal is to purchase a saliva test online and send it in to the lab.(Saliva tests are more accurate than blood tests.) You'll get the results back with a full report about your hormone levels and what they indicate. The report is written in language that is easy for a woman without a medical background to understand, so don't worry, you won't be resigned to looking up terms in a medical dictionary. Once you get the results back, then you can determine if you should make an appointment with your doctor and start talking about treatment options to relieve the symptoms of perimenopause, especially if they are disrupting your sleep, ability to focus or work, or wreaking havoc in your personal and professional relationships.
What are the signs of perimenopause that you are struggling with? How are you treating them? Leave your questions, tips, suggestions below.

"Spotlight on Design" features video interviews and case studies, focusing on technology breakthroughs, hands-on testimonials, and the importance of fundamentals. Viewers are virtually taken to industry labs and research centers to learn how design engineers solve real-life problems. These challenges include enhancing product performance, reducing cost, improving quality and safety, while decreasing environmental impact, and achieving regulatory compliance. In the episode "Automotive Charging Infrastructure: Vehicle and Grid Integration" (21:00), engineers from NextEnergy and an infrastructure expert from General Motors explain how technologies are rapidly converging to power electric vehicles and support the overall electric grid.
Development of higher-voltage electrical systems in vehicles has been slowly progressing over the past few decades. However, tightening vehicle efficiency and emissions regulations and increasing demand for onboard electrical power means that higher voltages, in the form of supplemental 48 V subsystems, may soon be nearing production as the most cost-effective way to meet regulations. The displacement of high-wattage loads to more efficient 48 V networks is expected to be the next step in the development of a new generation of mild hybrid vehicles. In addition to improved fuel economy and reduced emissions, 48 V systems could potentially save costs on new electrical features and help better address the emerging needs of future drivers. Challenges to 48 V system implementation remain, leading to discussions by experts from leading car makers and suppliers on the need for an international 48 V standard. Initial steps toward a proposed standard have already been taken.
Today, we are all strongly dependent on the correct functioning of technical systems. They fail, and we become vulnerable. Disruptions due to degradation or anomalous behavior can negatively impact safety, operations, and brand name, reducing the profitability of all elements of the value chain. This can be tolerated if the link between cause and effect is understood and remedied. Anomalous behavior, which indicates systems or subsystems not acting in accordance with design intent, is a much more serious problem. It includes unwanted system responses and faults whose root cause can't be properly diagnosed, leading to costly, and sometimes unnecessary, component replacements. The title No Fault Found: The Search for the Root Cause was developed to propose solutions to this technical and business challenge, which has become less and less acceptable to the commercial aviation industry globally.
The aircraft landing gear system is relatively unique on board an aircraft—it is both structure and machine, supporting the aircraft on the ground, yet providing functions such as energy absorption during landing, retraction, steering, and braking. Advances in Aircraft Landing Gear is a collection of eleven hand-picked technical papers focusing on the significant advancements that have occurred in this field concerning numeric modeling, electric actuation, and composite materials. Additionally, papers discussing self-powered landing gear and more electrical overall aircraft architectures have been included. The content of Advances in Aircraft Landing Gear is divided into two sections: Analysis and Design Methods; and Electric Actuation, Control, and Taxi.
Advances in Battery Technologies for Electric Vehicles provides an in-depth look into the research being conducted on the development of more efficient batteries capable of long distance travel. The text contains an introductory section on the market for battery and hybrid electric vehicles, thoroughly presenting the latest on lithium-ion battery technology. Readers will find sections on battery pack design and management, a discussion of the infrastructure required for the creation of a battery powered transport network, and coverage of the issues involved with end-of-life management for these types of batteries.
Rechargeable Lithium Batteries: From Fundamentals to Application provides an overview of rechargeable lithium batteries, from fundamental materials, though characterization and modeling, to applications. The market share of lithium ion batteries is fast increasing due to their high energy density and low maintenance requirements. Lithium air batteries have the potential for even higher energy densities, a requirement for the development of electric vehicles, and other types of rechargeable lithium battery are also in development. After an introductory chapter providing an overview of the main scientific and technological challenges posed by rechargeable Li batteries, Part One of this book reviews materials and characterization of rechargeable lithium batteries. Part Two covers performance and applications, discussing essential aspects such as battery management, battery safety and emerging rechargeable lithium battery technologies as well as medical and aerospace applications.
Vehicular Communications and Networks: Architectures, Protocols, Operation and Deployment discusses VANETs (Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks) or VCS (Vehicular Communication Systems), which can improve safety, decrease fuel consumption, and increase the capacity of existing roadways, critical for the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) industry. This title introduces architectures for VCS, describes the physical layer, antenna technologies and propagation models, explores protocols, algorithms, routing and information dissemination, and looks at the operation and deployment of vehicular communications and networks.
Integrated Vehicle Health Management: Implementation and Lessons Learned is the fourth title in the IVHM series published by SAE International. This new book introduces a variety of case studies, lessons learned, and insights on what it really means to develop, implement, or manage an integrated system of systems. Integrated Vehicle Health Management: Implementation and Lessons Learned brings to the reader a wide set of hands-on stories, made possible by the contribution of twenty-three authors, who agreed to share their experience and wisdom on how new technologies are developed and put to work. This effort was again coordinated by Dr. Ian K. Jennions, Director of the IVHM Centre at Cranfield University (UK), and editor of the previous books in the series.
The new Bosch Automotive Handbook , now in its 9th English edition, has been completely revised and enhanced to include the most recent developments in automotive technology. About 200 specialist authors contributed to this new version of every engineer's must-have reference. The book's format has been revised: it is now 20 percent longer and wider, as this allows for a larger font size. This makes the texts and graphics easier to read. The index has been strongly expanded to make looking up technical terms easier. The Bosch Automotive Handbook is a best-seller, with a broad global readership. Students of engineering programs consult it, as do researchers and engineers in the automotive industry. Mechanics who are studying to become master craftsmen also use it as a reference work. Experts trust the well-founded and extensive expertise that can be found in the classic. The Bosch Automotive Handbook is widely regarded around the world as a standard work for automotive technology.
Ethernet, the most widely-used local area networking technology in the world, is moving from the server rooms of automobile manufacturers to their vehicles. As the quantity and variety of electronic devices in cars continues to grow, Ethernet promises to improve performance and enable increasingly powerful and useful applications in vehicles. Automotive Ethernet – The Definitive Guide explains how industry-standard Ethernet technology has been adapted via Broadcom's new BroadR-Reach® standard to bring Ethernet hardware, and applications that run upon it, to the automotive world.
Over the years, the DARPA Challenges in the United States have galvanized interest in autonomous cars, making them a real possibility in the mind of the public, but autonomous and unmanned vehicles have been increasingly employed in many roles on land, in the water, and in the air. Military applications have received a great deal of attention, with weaponized unmanned aircraft (drones) being the most prominent. However, unmanned vehicles with varying degrees of autonomy already have many civilian applications. Some of these are quite familiar (such as the Roomba autonomous vacuum cleaner), while others remain largely out of the public eye (such as autonomous farm equipment). Additional applications and more capable vehicles are rapidly coming to the markets in the years ahead. This book examines a number of economically important areas in which unmanned and autonomous vehicles, also understood here as autonomous technologies, are already used or soon will be.
Software-Hardware Integration in Automotive Product Development brings together a must-read set of technical papers on one the most talked-about subjects among industry experts The carefully selected content of this book demonstrates how leading companies, universities, and organizations have developed methodologies, tools, and technologies to integrate, verify, and validate hardware and software systems. The automotive industry is no different, with the future of its product development lying in the timely integration of these chiefly electronic and mechanical systems. The integration activities cross both product type and engineering discipline boundaries to include chip-, embedded board-, and network/vehicle-level systems. Integration, verification, and validation of each of these three domains are examined in depth, attesting to the difficulties of this phase of the automotive hardware and software system life cycle.
Although the concept of Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) can be complex in its implementation, it is essentially based upon a simple idea: the more you know about a particular machine's ability to function, the quicker you can act to prevent malfunctioning. This rapidly developing area of engineering seeks to enable better management of both the vehicle and vehicle fleet health. Use of IVHM can improve vehicle reliability, safety, and reduce unnecessary, unscheduled maintenance through the use of diagnostic and prognosis systems that monitor data and overall vehicle health. From an initial idea by the SAE IVHM Steering Group, these books have been collaboratively written by experts from academia, research and industry, and represent the collective voice of the most qualified authorities in the field.
Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) is a relatively new subject, with its roots back in the space sector of the early 1990s. Although many of the papers written around that time did not refer to it as IVHM, the fundamental principles of considering an integrated end-to-end system to monitor the overall health of the asset were clearly visible. As the subject of Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) and its associated technologies have grown up, businesses are making the transformation from selling a product to selling a service. This can be viewed as a positive disruption, as a relatively small technology breakthrough is being brought to market for a large business benefit. The sequence "sense—acquire—transfer—analyze—act " feeds the information (processed data) on the asset's health into the Operations or Management control center.
The third volume in the Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) series focuses on the technology that actually supports the implementation of IVHM in real-life situations. Edited by Ian K. Jennions, Director of the IVHM Center at Cranfield University, UK, this book was written collaboratively by twenty-seven authors from industry, academia and governmental research agencies.
This two-volume set consists of two edited books: Autonomous Vehicles for Safer Driving (PT-158), published in April 2013, and V2V/V2I Communications for Improved Road Safety and Efficiency (PT-154), published in August 2012. Both volumes include SAE-published documents that have been carefully selected and arranged by editor Ronald Jurgen to provide the reader with current information on these interrelated topics about the future of driving. The papers in the autonomous vehicles volume bring the reader up to date on successful demonstrations of autonomous vehicles, ongoing projects, and what the future may hold for this technology. It is divided into three sections: overview, major design and test collaborations, and a sampling of autonomous vehicle research projects.
Self-driving cars are no longer in the realm of science fiction, thanks to the integration of numerous automotive technologies that have matured over many years. Technologies such as adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and V2V/V2I communications are being merged into one complex system. The papers in this compendium were carefully selected to bring the reader up to date on successful demonstrations of autonomous vehicles, ongoing projects, and what the future may hold for this technology. It is divided into three sections: overview, major design and test collaborations, and a sampling of autonomous vehicle research projects. The comprehensive overview paper covers the current state of autonomous vehicle research and development as well as obstacles to overcome and a possible roadmap for major new technology developments and collaborative relationships.

Updated material also identifies the need for trusted sensing, the efforts of many organizations that impact smart sensing, and more.
Hydrogen, energy vector for the future? Or, on the contrary, limited to its current applications in the field of chemistry and refining for decades to come, possibly even until the end of the century? There is much controversy over this issue and two sides to the argument. Advocates of the hydrogen civilization consider that, following a technological revolution hydrogen will play a universal role alongside electricity as a substitute for fossil fuels, especially (but not only) in transport, leading to radical elimination of CO2 emissions. For the skeptics, and even outspoken opponents, hydrogen will remain restricted to its current applications due to the insoluble problems inherent to its generalized use, especially in transport. This book highlights the increasing and inevitable role of "energy" hydrogen – as opposed to chemical hydrogen – in the key sectors of transport and "clean" electricity production.
The increasing concern about CO2 emissions and energy prices has led to new CO2 emission and fuel economy legislation being introduced in world regions served by the automotive industry. In response, automotive manufacturers and Tier-1 suppliers are developing a new generation of internal combustion (IC) engines with ultra-low emissions and high fuel efficiency. To further this development, a better understanding is needed of the combustion and pollutant formation processes in IC engines. As efficiency and emission abatement processes have reached points of diminishing returns, there is more of a need to make measurements inside the combustion chamber, where the combustion and pollutant formation processes take place. However, there is currently no good overview of how to make these measurements.

The book presents a comprehensive overview of the theory of the technological processes of lead-acid battery manufacture and their influence on battery performance parameters. It summarizes the current knowledge about the technology of lead-acid battery production and presents it in the form of an integral theory. This theory is supported by ample illustrative material and experimental data, thus allowing technologists and engineers to control the technological processes in battery plants and providing university lecturers with a toll for clear and in-depth presentation of the technology of lead-acid battery production in their courses. The relationship between the technological processes and the performance characteristics of the batteries is disclosed too.
Giving unique insight into Toyota's 2011 technical developments, this book includes 18 papers that chronicle the Japanese OEM's R&D activities in a variety of technologies during that year. This volume has a special focus on next-generation electric storage, and 10 of the papers highlight developments in such things as batteries, fuel cells and next-generation energy. Title highlights include: Next Generation Electric Storage and Its Applications • Secondary Battery Development for Hybrid Vehicles at Toyota • Development Trends and Popularization Trends for Fuel Cell Vehicles • Renewable Energy and Its Effective Usage Other Technical Areas • Drivetrain Development for the Lexus LFA • Development of Scratch-Resistant Universal Clear Coat • Development of Environmentally Friendly Machining Process for Aluminum Parts
This book covers all aspects of fuel processing: fundamental chemistry, different modes of reforming, catalysts, catalyst deactivation, fuel desulfurization, reaction engineering, novel reforming concepts, thermodynamics, heat and mass transfer issues, system design, recent research and development, etc., which makes it one single source of information for scientists and engineers. It serves as an excellent self-instruction book for those new to fuel cells, and as a comprehensive resource for experts in the area of fuel processing. It can be used as a reference book for advanced level university courses in this area.
Energy storage, and in particular electrical storage of energy, has become a very talked about topic in circles ranging from lay persons, in regard to hybrid and battery electric vehicles, to professionals, and certainly by legislators and energy policy makers. This book takes a critical look at the physical storage of electricity in the devices known collectively as electrochemical capacitors and particularly as ultracapacitors. Its 12 chapters cover ultracapacitor and advanced battery topics with an emphasis on a clear understanding of fundamental principles, models and applications. But even to professionals, the distinctions between physical and chemical forms of electric energy storage are unclear and, at times, poorly understood, if at all. The reader will appreciate the case studies from commercial to industrial to automotive applications of not only ultracapacitors, but of these power dense components in combination with energy dense battery technologies.
In the near future, we will witness vehicles with the ability to provide drivers with several advanced safety and performance assistance features. Autonomous technology in ground vehicles will afford us capabilities like intersection collision warning, lane change warning, backup parking, parallel parking aids, and bus precision parking. Providing you with a practical understanding of this technology area, this innovative resource focuses on basic autonomous control and feedback for stopping and steering ground vehicles. Covering sensors, estimation, and sensor fusion to percept the vehicle motion and surrounding objects, this unique book explains the key aspects that makes autonomous vehicle behavior possible. Moreover, you find detailed examples of fusion and Kalman filtering.

I absolutely LOVE the artwork by Alma from @almahoffmann! She is a passionate artist and we are amazed at how talented she is! Here is a little bit about Alma:
"My life is divided between being a professor and a designer. Lately though, I have found an outlet in lettering and calligraphy. I have a deep love for letterforms and type. I have a deep passion for design, problem solving, visual thinking, research, learning, typography, geometry, movement, and others. Being a designer and an educator allows me to continuously learn which fits me well since I am very curious. Being an educator also allows me to think a lot about how we learn things, how we process data, how we apply and use that data, and keep growing. I am also constantly dabbling on different media like painting, doodling, calligraphy, hand-lettering, photography, etc.."

Before seeing the bike:
- If it is a private sale make sure you view the bike at the sellers premises - this will help determine if the seller is genuine
- Always ask the seller to make sure the bike is cold when you come to view it - warm engines can hide a multitude of sins
Find out whether the bike:
- Has got an MOT certificate, is it taxed and for how long?
- Has got a race can fitted and if so is the original included?
- Has it ever been crashed?
- Has got a current V5 and is registered in the sellers name?
- Is there any outstanding finance, if you're in doubt buy a HPI report or similar?
- Does the bike still have both original keys and the toolkit?
- Does the bike have a service history, and if so is it a main dealer one?
How to check the bike:
- On liquid cooled engines check for a film of oil in the radiator header tank before warming the bike up - the presence of oil would signify internal engine leaks or a blown head gasket.
- Make sure the oil on the dipstick or in the sight glass is smooth and has no bits in it or milky scum - again this could mean internal engine leaks.
- On starting from cold make sure the engine does not turn over sluggishly - this could mean a worn starter motor and/or a defective battery.
- Check for oil leaks around the engine and on the ground where the bike has been stood - any leaks could indicate expensive oil seal replacement or crash damage.
- Check all the lights work and that both levers activate the rear brake light.
- Run a finger up the fork stanchions and check for oil and rust - leaking fork seals are fixable, but it will cost you if the forks need re-chroming, also sometimes dismantling forks will damage the fork bushes and they'll need replacing.
- Check to make sure the rear shock isn't leaking oil and that any shock linkage is moving smoothly.
- Find out how old the tyres are regardless of their apparent wear - some old tyres can appear fine until the conditions get slippy. If in doubt, factor in replacement.
- If the bike is a European or American import check to see if the headlight has been altered for UK use.
- Check the brake disks for obvious signs of wear, hairline cracks between the vent holes can indicate critically thin disks. Check the brake pads to make sure they still have plenty of material left.
- If possible spin each wheel off the ground and check for damaged rims and worn wheel bearings.
- With the front wheel off the ground carefully move the steering left and right of centre and feel for any notches in the head stock bearings
- Check the Engine and Chassis numbers match the V5, sometimes, especially on imports there will be no engine number on the V5 but this does not necessarily mean a problem, it's optional when you are registering the bike in the UK.
- Check the sprockets to make sure they're not 'hooked' and check the chain is not at the end of it's adjustment.
- Check behind as many panels as possible for signs of repair. They may point to more serious accident damage, the quality of bodywork repair should indicate the quality of any other repairs. There's no substitute for orginal panels.
- Check for bent levers, scuffed mirrors/bar ends/indicators for signs of a drop.
Road testing the bike:
- Make sure the bike starts and idles easily, the tick over may have been set high to cover up idling problems or a rattly clutch basket.
- Check for smoke on start up, a bike in good condition that has been run regularly should be smoke free, unless it's a 2 stroke of course.
- Make sure the brakes do not bind and feel for pulsing through the brake levers, this indicates a warped disk.
- Make sure you can select all the gears easily and that you can find neutral when you come to a stop.
- Check for a slipping clutch by accelerating hard in top gear from a lowish speed.
Finally, trust your instincts about the bike and the seller and do not let your heart rule your head - if you are not happy just walk away!!

The Boston Celtics continue to discuss trades, most notably a deal involving Brandon Bass.
The Charlotte Bobcats, Golden State Warriors and Phoenix Suns are interested in Bass.
"You can't let that affect your game," Bass told CSNNE.com earlier. "You just have to go out and play your game, do what you do and whatever happens, happens."
"Most guys that have been around this league, if you're worth anything you're involved in trade rumors, you're involved in discussions," said Danny Ainge. "It's just part of the world we live in. I don't know what you can do except just play."

NEW!!! On Tripadvisor…
What the people say…
"Fantastic Learning Experience"
Eric is the man! Very easy to get on with, great fun, incredibly knowledgable and a great teacher, even for those very new to the game and easily frustrated. The whole day was incredibly well planned, his driver picked us up at 5am from our hotel and made our way, he took us to good local stops for food and refreshments and got is everywhere avoiding the crowds for some spectacular photos!
He was also kind enough to give us details of everywhere we had been, as well as details of things we talked about during the day. We will definitely use Eric again, best there is, a great guide and a fantastic photographer. (Visited June 2016)
In May we did two photo tours with Eric d Vries. One countryside tour in Siem Reap and a day in Phnom Penh. These two days made our vacation in Cambodia a really special trip. Of course we were overwhelmed and amazed by the temples of Angkor, but our countryside tour showed us the real live around Siem Reap. Eric took us to small towns, markets, pagoda's and a floating village (a real one, not the tourist version). And he treated us on a very good lunch. In Phnom Penh Eric took us to very special spots. Just do the tour and you will see. Last but not least. Eric is a great photographer and teacher. Even if you just bought a camera he will be able to help you to get a grip on using your camera and get the best out of it. Also if you are an advanced photographer Eric will help you become a better one. We had two very special days. I would recommend Eric to anyone wanting to see a different side of Cambodia, even if photography is not the main goals looking more intensely at the world around you will make you journey extra special. Very highly recommended! Visited May … (Maarten and Petra)
I have just undertaken a photograph workshop with Eric de Vries in Angkor Archaeological Park and found him to be extremely patient, highly proficient and a thoroughly engaging tutor. He made the technical process easy to understand and was so helpful in explaining light and depth of field which straight away helped me to produce better quality pictures… (Paul and Sheila)
…Eric is a professional photographer that lives in Siem Reap and served as my guide this past Saturday. It was actually a combination tour and photo workshop. He is one of the very best guides I have ever worked with and was an excellent teacher. He actually made photographing temples fun for me, as I usually just photograph people. As you know, the needs of a photographer are very different from the typical touring person, even someone well traveled. Eric looked at my web site, understood my likes and put me in places where there was the potential for interesting images. When he saw I was stuck or missed a good opportunity he would advise me. As a photographer, he understands light and how the light will fall at different times of the day. Though other guides are adequate, having someone like Eric can make your programs something special… (Louis)
Wir fanden Eric über Lonely Planet; schrieben nur kurz eine E-Mail; Eric antwortete schnell & und schon hatten wir für 2 Tage eine Private Photo Tour (für 2 Personen) gebucht: 1 Tag in den Tempeln, 1 Tag Countryside. Beide Tage waren großartig; wobei die Countryside noch einen Hauch spannender war. Die vielen direkten Kontakte mit Menschen, eine Vielzahl von großartigen Portrait-Aufnahmen waren der Lohn….. An beiden Tagen wurden wir mit dem Tuk Tuk abgeholt (großartiges Fortbewegungsmittel); am Tempeltag gings um 5h los (Sunrise Angkor Wat, was sonst…). Am 2. Tag um 9h, dafür dann bis zum Sonnenuntergang. Eric wählte die spannendsten Tempel aus, kannte die besten Ecken & Motive, gab tolle Tipps (z. B. auch im Schatten gibts tolle Bilder, u. ich weiß nun, dass der M-Mode doch seine Berechtigung hat….). Die Countryside-Tour beinhaltete u.a. einen Schulbesuch, einen lokalen Markt, einen Tempel mit Mönchen u. eine Flussfahrt. Alles sehr spannend & das Beste: Wir haben keine Touristen gesehen. Das Kontrast-Programm zu Angkor. Sowohl ich (mit Canon 5D Mk II) & meine Frau (mit Canon 550 D) haben letztlich unzählige Bilder gemacht (fast 1.500 Stück); also großzügig Speicher & möglichst Ersatz-Akku mitbringen.
Wenn wir wieder kommen; mailen wir auf jeden Fall wieder Eric an….. Definitiv… (Martin)
…Een zeer actieve, leerzame en gezellige dag. Een zeer goede toer en ik heb het idee dat nu een gedeelte van het echte Cambodja heb gezien.
Hi Eric, thank you so for taking us on the countryside adventure. I won't be able to download my photos until I get back to Doha, but from the shots I've viewed on the camera screen, they look great. I appreciate all of the hints and pointers too. Take care, Natalie…
Thanks very much for the tour today and kind guidance in pointing me the right direction. Please do send our thanks to your wife for the excellent lunch… Joel
I left Cambodia with memories of a lifetime. Thank you for your instruction, your professionalism and your patience throughout the photo tour. I'll definitely contact you next time I'm in town.…I really enjoyed Cambodia…, E.S.
Just wanted to say thanks for last week, I got some really great images. If I'm back in Cambodia next year, I will be sure to let you know, Malcolm
Thanks again for helping to make my trip to Siem Reap all the more memorable!
Kind regards, Linda
Eric, I've been swamped since coming back and have had no time to edit all my shots or make the CD I plan to send you. You helped me make some really good shots and your advice has helped in shots I've taken since. Thanks for staying in my mind as my teacher…
I enjoyed the tour immensely and the exercises we practiced are already being implemented. I visited your exhibition at the Victoria, and also went to the countryside today including the lake and floating village. Siem Reap has had a great impact on my photography, and I hope to return soon…
…Hi Eric, Thanks so much for your quick feedback and your encouraging words. All credit to you of course! I think it's a big improvement over my previous stuff…
Regards. Tommy (Hong Kong)
…je foto van de drummer in Wat Bo is echt goed. Goede beelduitsnede en goed perspectief. Ik was er en ik weet dat je echt een goede foto hebt geschoten. Nogmaals mijn complimenten. Je werk komt voort uit je eigen kracht (gevoel en visie). Ik ben benieuwd naar je laatste werk en of je nog interessante workshops hebt gegeven…
…Dear Eric, I hope you're well? Thank you so much for your time a few weeks back when you kindly escorted me around Siem Reap. I really enjoyed our photoshoot…
Very best wishes, Michael (UK)
…Just wanted to say how much Julie and I enjoyed our two days photography with you. We have 2 more days in Bangkok and then we are back to the cold of the UK ! Have started to look at some of the images we took and very pleased. If we wanted to come back in a year or two, would it be best to come in September/October after the rains ? I assume you would be happy to put up with us again for a few days !
Best wishes, Alan
…the two men you refer to were my clients and I spoke with them earlier this week about their trip. They loved the time they spent with you and both came away with some great photos and both said they learnt a lot in the time they spent with you. Thank you so much for looking after them so well. I am glad you enjoyed the time too!

A blogger friend Chittle Chattle brought a chuckle from me this a.m. It had to do with blogging or not and moving irises.
Yesterday I did move more irises….I keep digging the poor things up and moving them. If they ever bloom again it will be a miracle.
I tell my plants when I plant them: Don't get use to this spot; I'll probably move you.
So it is with people. We move from spot to spot; sometimes within our own "spot". People come and go; friends stay no matter which "spot" you plant yourself.
So, thanks, CC. I have to plant the irises somewhere, however, some are going to new homes. tornados took away everything from some of the people in Huntsville. I am giving irises to those who wish to rebuild their yards with a few irises tucked here and there.

Give East Harlem a 'State of the Art' Sanitation Garage
We demand parity with Tribeca's state-of-the-art $250,000,000 Department of Sanitation garage.
The current Department of Sanitation proposal for a new East Harlem (M11) garage is the cheapest, dirtiest, and smelliest facility they think they can get away with. Giving Tribeca a quarter of a BILLION dollar, state-of-the-art garage and then offering East Harlem an open-air and on-street garage is not just disgusting, it's environmental racism.
What's good enough for wealthy Manhattan neighborhoods should be offered to all Manhattan neighborhoods.
Don't let the Department of Sanitation get away with dumping on East Harlem.

BEREA, Ohio -- Browns running back Peyton Hillis has been added to Cleveland's injury report with an unspecified thigh injury.
Hillis, who has rushed for more than 100 yards the past two weeks, had limited participation in Thursday's practice. Hillis apparently got hurt following the 30 minutes of practice open to reporters.
Hillis has been the Browns' top offensive player through four weeks. He rushed for a career-high 144 yards two weeks ago against Baltimore, and followed that up by running for 102 to help Cleveland get its first win this season, 23-20 over Cincinnati.
Hillis was not on the injury report Wednesday.
The Browns acquired Hillis in March in a trade with Denver for quarterback Brady Quinn.

Topic: Cultivating Resilience and Building a Trauma-Informed Organization
Perry Dougherty of Still Harbor presented at the Next Mile Project to educate the nonprofits about how to best care for their employees' well-being.
What is Still Harbor?
- Still harbor works with individuals and organizations to understand their purpose and elicit their 'gifts' to make change
- They operate at the intersection of spirituality and social justice
- Discerning purpose, vocation, and call to service
- Aligning to and attuning values, beliefs, motivations
- Healing, reconciling and understanding in relationship to self, others, and the sacred
- They believe in 'accompaniment:' the notion that one needs to take a holistic approach and consider all factors to understand an issue or organizational entity
Still Harbor strongly believes in helping yourself before helping others (Metaphorically – On an airplane they ask you to place your mask on before assisting others). Why?
- Social justice work is very personal and often intermixed with employees' past pain.
- This can interfere in accomplishing one's goals
- When we don't feel healthy and whole our work is often compromised
- Many nonprofits' ultimate mission is long term change
- Thus, employees cannot burn out as human resources are the most valuable assets many social justice organizations can provide.
- Those attempting to effect positive change need to model what it looks like to heal and to be healed
- If the ultimate goal of a nonprofit is to promote equality or oneness, it is important to consider oneself not only as helpers but also as those in need of help.
- Everyone deserves to say 'me-too.'
- Becomes a point of solidarity
Dougherty discussed the importance of fostering a nurturing, healing environment in times of peace so that during crisis or after trauma exposure employees are better equipped to cope.
What is trauma exposure?
- In simple terms: witnessing trauma (See slides for a full list of symptoms)
- Seeing suffering, observing substandard qualities of life, listening to those involved a natural disaster or social unrest, etc.
- Individuals and organizations often neglect the employees who are exposed to trauma
- Many are quick to dismiss their own feelings about such exposure due to the relative nature of their experiences: "I didn't live through it," "she had it worse than I ever did," "How can I be upset when they dealt with x, y or z?"
- Organizations can get so wrapped up in their goals to help others they forget to help themselves
- Every social justice nonprofit is exposed to trauma as a result of going to the most marginalized areas in the world
Proactively create resilience in a time where there is no crisis. What is resilience?
- The capacity of a person, group, or system to sustain its core purpose and wholeness in the face of dramatically changed circumstances
- The capacity of a person, group, or system to recover from stress and adversity well.
- Not simply 'get-over-it' psychological toughness. It includes healthy, though often painful integration of new information or circumstances.
- Need to cultivate resilience on an individual and collective levels
How to Cultivate Resilience:
- Grapple critically with our purpose, beliefs, values, and understandings
- Connect with ourselves, others, and something greater than any one of us
- Open ourselves for potential change
- Need to create an environment that integrates reflection, focus, connection, and integration
What it takes to build a Trauma- Informed Organization
- Establish a safe space to foster open discussion
- Embrace the various ways trauma can impact someone and encourage justice workers to understand that their responses are not signs of weakness but of humanity
- Place real value on caring for oneself as well as for others.
Case Study: Haiti Earthquake and Still Harbor's Akonpanye program
- Still Harbor established a safe haven where Haitians, Haitian-Americans, and emergency response personnel could gather to openly discuss their feelings about the disaster
- Lessons learned:
- People yearn to find ways to communicate their feelings. They need a space to fully understand their feelings then discuss them.
- Often have profound spiritual questions they need to muse on in a safe setting. (ex. Why do bad things happen to good people)
- People often feel alone as a result of their experience. They believe others cannot understand or they try to rationalize feelings away (They had it worse, so I shouldn't worry).

The .exe extension on a filename indicates an executable file. Executable files may, in some cases, harm your computer. Therefore, please read below to decide for yourself whether the nSvcLog.exe on your computer is a Trojan that you should remove, or whether it is a file belonging to the Windows operating system or to a trusted application.
The process known as nSvcLog belongs to software NVIDIA ForceWare Network or NVIDIA ForceWare Network Access Manager or Network Access Manager or NVIDIA Display Control Panel by NVIDIA (www.nvidia.com).
Description: NSvcLog.exe is not essential for the Windows OS and causes relatively few problems. The file nSvcLog.exe is located in a subfolder of "C:\Program Files" or sometimes in a subfolder of C:\.
Known file sizes on Windows 10/8/7/XP are 65,599 bytes (55% of all occurrences), 61,503 bytes and 7 more variants.
The program is not visible. It is not a Windows core file. The application can be removed using the Control Panel's Add\Remove programs applet. Therefore the technical security rating is 31% dangerous, however you should also read the user reviews.
Recommended: Identify nSvcLog.exe related errors
Important: Some malware camouflages itself as nSvcLog.exe, particularly when located in the C:\Windows or C:\Windows\System32 folder. Therefore, you should check the nSvcLog.exe process on your PC to see if it is a threat. We recommend Security Task Manager for verifying your computer's security. This was one of the Top Download Picks of The Washington Post and PC World.
Summary: Average user rating of nSvcLog.exe: based on 2 votes with 3 user comments. 2 users think nSvcLog.exe is essential for Windows or an installed application. 2 users don't grade nSvcLog.exe ("not sure about it").
A clean and tidy computer is the key requirement for avoiding problems with nSvcLog. This means running a scan for malware, cleaning your hard drive using 1cleanmgr and 2sfc /scannow, 3uninstalling programs that you no longer need, checking for Autostart programs (using 4msconfig) and enabling Windows' 5Automatic Update. Always remember to perform periodic backups, or at least to set restore points.
Should you experience an actual problem, try to recall the last thing you did, or the last thing you installed before the problem appeared for the first time. Use the 6resmon command to identify the processes that are causing your problem. Even for serious problems, rather than reinstalling Windows, you are better off repairing of your installation or, for Windows 8 and later versions, executing the 7DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth command. This allows you to repair the operating system without losing data.
To help you analyze the nSvcLog.exe process on your computer, the following programs have proven to be helpful: ASecurity Task Manager displays all running Windows tasks, including embedded hidden processes, such as keyboard and browser monitoring or Autostart entries. A unique security risk rating indicates the likelihood of the process being potential spyware, malware or a Trojan. BMalwarebytes Anti-Malware detects and removes sleeping spyware, adware, Trojans, keyloggers, malware and trackers from your hard drive.

Rack of Lamb With Roasted-Shallot Vinaigrette
Be the first to review
READY IN: 54mins
Recipe by ratherbeswimmin
Weber's Real Grilling
See Discussion:
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 large shallot, unpeeled (about 1 oz.)
- 1⁄4 cup extra virgin olive oil, divided
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme
- 1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 2 racks of lamb, frenched (1 to 1 1/2 lb. each)
- extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh thyme
- 1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1⁄2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
Directions See How It's Made
- Make the vinaigrette: lightly brush or spray the shallot all over with a bit of olive oil; grill over direct medium heat until it is blackened in spots and very soft throughout, about 15 minutes, turning once.
- Remove the shallot from the grill, and let cool; remove and discard the peel.
- Finely chop the shallot and put it in a medium bowl along with the remaining vinaigrette ingredients; whisk in the rest of the olive oil to create a smooth dressing.
- Trim any excess fat from the lamb; let stand at room temperature 20-30 minutes before grilling.
- Lightly brush or spray the lamb with oil and season with thyme, salt, and pepper.
- Loosely cover the bones with foil to keep them from burning.
- Sear bone side down first, over direct medium heat until lightly browned, 2-4 minutes, turning once (flare ups might occur); move the lamb over indirect medium heat and grill to desired doneness, about 15 minutes more for medium-rare.
- Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before cutting into chops.
- Serve warm with the vinaigrette.

text: The stock markets in the United States fluctuated and eventually ended the trading with mixed results. The Dow Jones & S&P 500 gained slightly while the NASDAQ and Russell 2000 experienced a marginal decline. Sign up for our free newsletter The markets were impacted by the weak factory production in April, and unexpected declined of consumer confidence early in May. The Federal Reserve reported that the manufacturing output was unchanged in April following a revised gain of 0.3% in March. According to the central bank, a small increase in the production of durables was offset by a small decline in the output of nondurables. Economists polled by Bloomberg were expecting a 0.2% increase in manufacturing output last month. David Sloan, a senior economist at 4Casttold Bloomberg, "The manufacturing output is really pretty flat." He believes that the manufacturing output will go from flat to modest growth as oil prices increase and the negative impact of port dispute fade. He is not optimistic about a strong growth. On the other hand, the University of Michigan preliminary index of consumer confidence declined to 88.6% early in May from 95.9% in April. "Confidence fell in early May as consumers became increasingly convinced that there would be no quick and robust rebound following the dismal 1st quarter even if the underperformance was exaggerated by inadequate seasonal adjustments. The decline was widespread among all age and income subgroups as well as across all regions of the country," noted Richard Curtin, chief economist, Surveys of Consumers, University of Michigan. On the other hand, Millan Mulraine, deputy head of U.S. research & strategy at TD Securities USA said, "It's not very encouraging for growth prospects. The spate of numbers has been quite weak." Investors speculate that the Federal Reserve will continue to support the growth of the economy due to weak economic data.
