HK Audio brings full iPad mixing to Lucas Nano
An iPad-controllable speaker is the latest model to join HK Audio's Lucas Nano portable PA family. Weighing 16.3kg, the Lucas Nano 608i subwoofer offers an integrated eight-channel digital mixer that can be controlled directly using conventional knobs, or can connect to an iPad via Bluetooth, for the remote operation of satellites.
Like other models in the series, the combined system can be deployed as a slim mono column, a classic stereo setup or as a twin stereo system, making it suited to solo musicians, small groups and entertainers.
Mixing on the iPad is stated to be fully-featured – users have access to a complete eight-channel virtual mixer, in addition to drawable EQs, compressors and reverbs. An Easy Mode facilitates quick and simple adjustment, while Expert Mode opens up the complete functionality. The subwoofer cabinet houses a 10-inch driver while the satellite houses a 4.5-inch broadband woofer and 1-inch tweeter. A transport bay for the satellites is located in the subwoofer to aid transport.

This is Tuna? Burger.
Recipe by Jes-cooks
If you dont enjoy, or cant always eat red meat, this may be a perfect substitution. Its a heart, tasty, explosive on your taste buds burger that can be topped with your favorite toppings just as you would with a regular burger. I make it for my nieces all the time and they absolutely love it. Considering they are 12 and 5, feeding them tuna mixed with veggies.....that they LOVE.....is a great thing.
Top Review by domesticdivawannabe
Really good! The first non-meat burgers I've ever made that stayed together while cooking/flipping. So good, I even made them for the in-laws. I'm not the world's biggest canned tuna fan; the title of this recipe is correct... "this is tuna?"
See Discussion:3 Reviews
Ingredients Nutrition
- 12 ounces tuna, drained (2 cans, usually)
- 5 tablespoons breadcrumbs (I like the italian style breadcrumbs)
- 2 tablespoons pickle relish
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley (I use fresh, if you are using pre-packaged dry parsely only use 1/2 tablespoon)
- 1 tablespoon chopped scallion
- 2 tablespoons chopped white onions
- 1 stalk celery, chopped
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
- 1⁄3 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 3 tablespoons egg substitute or 1 egg
- 1⁄2 teaspoon oil (or margarine, dont use butter, it has salt, that mixes with the salt already added to the mix)
Directions See How It's Made
- Mix all ingredients (but not the tuna or the oil yet) together in a bowl. Once they are mixed well add the Tuna to the mix, and fold it into itself until all the ingredients are well mixed.
- Heat a sauce pan with the oil on a medium heat.
- while that heats up for a minute, grab a good amount of the mixture in the bowl, and shape it like a burger (this mix will make 2-3 burgers).
- place the burger in the pan and cook it for 3-5 minutes on each side (you will know its done on that side because it will be a light-medium brown.
- place it on a burger bun, or a pita like I do. Top it with cheese, or tomatoes, or lettuce, or all of them plus whatever else you would like.
- This is a great alternative to beef burgers, that arent healthy to eat too often.

Ocean Freight Transportation to Spain
Sales of medium and high technology have grown significantly as Spain has expanded its usual trade destinations beyond Europe, including into highly competitive markets such as Asia and the US. Tourism and the automotive industry are also major sectors in the country's economy.
As well as being a member of the EU, Spain belongs to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development and the World Trade Organization. With the country's economic power and profile, ocean freight transportation from the US to Spain is a worthwhile pursuit for any exporter.
Full Container Load (FCL) or Groupage (LCL)
A 20-foot shipping container accommodates 10 standard pallets, while a 40-foot container can carry 22 standard pallets. If the volume of your shipment is equal to at least half a shipping container, then a full container load (FCL) will be your best option when shipping a container to Spain. You should also choose FCL if you need to keep your merchandise isolated from other exporters' goods.
A cost-effective alternative to FCL is groupage-a less-than-container load (LCL). This will be a good option if you have a shipment of fewer than six standard pallets and sharing a container with other exporters is viable. You will pay only for the shipping space you need. Consult iContainers for rates and other important information.
Additionally, we offer a door-to-door service between Spain and the United States, where we provide services to companies and individuals who want their shipment picked up in origin and delivered to its final destination.
Ocean Freight Routes to Spain
- Barcelona The port of Barcelona covers an area of over 2,400 acres and features over 12 miles of wharves and berths, with alongside depths of up to 52.5 feet. The port is Europe's ninth-largest container port, and Spain's third-largest. The port handled 43 million tons of cargo in 2001, carried by more than eight thousand vessels. The port also has over 460 hectares of open storage as well as 50 acres of covered warehouse space.
- Valencia The port of Valencia is the largest port on the coast of the western Mediterranean coast. Its annual traffic capacity is over 4,210,000 TEUs and 62 million tons. It encompasses an area of 1,500 acres and nearly 40,000 feet of quay, with 45 feet of alongside depth. It is equipped to handle a large volume of traffic with modern facilities and equipment.
- Bilbao The port of Bilbao occupies 773 acres of land and over 4,000 acres of water along 10.6 miles of waterfront. It features terminals for containers, general cargo, liquid and solid bulk, RORO, and horticultural products. This port is Spain's largest, and the fourth-busiest in the country.
- Algeciras The port of Algeciras is one of Europe's largest and most important ports. It manages a wide variety of passenger and freight traffic, and encompasses over six miles of quays in different basins. It handled more than 70 million tons in total traffic and more than 2.8 million containers in 2011.
- Madrid (dry port) The Madrid Dry Port is a container terminal located in Coslada. The terminal covers an area of over 1.5 million square feet, and has container storage of over 172,000 square feet. There are two reception and delivery train tracks, and four tracks (extendible to six) for loading and unloading of trains. The port has direct links to the ports of Barcelona, Bilbao Algeciras, and Valencia.
- Zaragoza (dry port) This dry port at Zaragoza handles over a hundred thousand TEUs annually, and reached a record level of cargo traffic in 2014. It is the distribution point for goods arriving in Spain by sea.
Air Freight Transportation to Spain
If you are on a tight schedule and have an urgent shipment, air freight may be more appropriate to your needs than ocean freight. Air freight does place some limitations on volume and weight. Consult iContainers' calculator to help you determine whether this is the right option for you.

The Honorables should acknowledge that different types of incentives are needed
It sets a double standard when state lawmakers object to a well-regulated film incentives program that keeps more than 4,000 people working steadily, but see a need for up-front cash incentives to lure other major employers. Yet that is essentially the case in North Carolina as a Senate bill proposes a "Job Catalyst Fund," to be distributed at the sole discretion of the secretary of commerce.
The Honorables should acknowledge that different types of incentives are needed to help the state attract and maintain a diverse industrial base. We need the film incentives, and we need the ability to match other states' strategies in manufacturing incentives. It isn't an either/or proposition.
Film incentives have revived an industry that has been a vital part of North Carolina's economy for the past three decades. Contrary to claims of "abuse" by Gov. Pat McCrory and some legislators, the program has built-in safeguards. Money isn't disbursed until after the production has filed its tax return and an audit is conducted.
With no agreement on extending those incentives, the Honorables seem willing to see this industry pack up and leave. Our loss will be other states' gain if this is allowed to happen.
Likewise, other states have been more nimble when it comes to recruiting new businesses. Our slow-motion process and lack of flexibility let Continental Tire and Caterpillar slip through our fingers a few short years ago. Both were eyeing Brunswick County for large manufacturing operations.
A closing fund could help North Carolina win a few in the ongoing battle among states to attract employers paying better-than-average wages. The bill was introduced by the Senate, which also voted to weaken film incentives by replacing after-the-fact tax credits with a limited grant program.
But it too is in danger, delayed by disagreement over an unrelated section of the bill. The closing-fund provision is an amendment to House legislation capping local sales taxes at 2.5 percent (the latest in a series of moves to strip cities and counties of authority by a group that once preached local control).
House Bill 1224 would authorize up-front money to seal the deal with large employers planning sizeable, long-term investments. Although no amount was specified, Commerce Secretary Sharon Decker estimated the need for a $20 million to $30 million fund. Businesses would have to meet minimum investment and employment targets, and the money must be used for capital needs.
Those are wise stipulations, but other parts of the bill raise questions of accountability.
Most notably is that authority over the fund would rest with one person, Decker. The bill calls for an annual report outlining which businesses received money, and how much. The General Assembly should specify that such information is open to public inspection, so that there is no room to argue otherwise.
Those weaknesses could be strengthened. But time is short, and the General Assembly could leave hanging one incentives program that is paying off and another that could help North Carolina compete with other states for jobs.
Killing film incentives carries the very real risk of running off an industry that already benefits the state in many ways. Failing to approve the other may leave the state short a weapon in its arsenal for luring new businesses.
Both could spell losses for North Carolina's economy.

Aruba Central + Guest Portal, Certificate Management
Aruba Central + Guest Portal, Certificate Management
Hi All,
I'm currently in the process of testing Aruba Central (MSP mode) with the "hosted" Guest Portal feature.
I'm using IAP-315s updated to the recommended firmware.
It all seems straight forward and works well, except for the Certificate Error message that comes up due to the included Aruba Certificate not being trusted.
For a good guest experience, I would like to obviously ensure that there is no certificate error message.
The Aruba Central documentation is pretty light in this area (I'm guessing because it's a fairly new feature) so I would appreciate if someone could confirm if the following process is correct.
- Using OpenSSL, Create an CSR and submit to your Public Root Certificate Authority
- Based off the instructions here: https://community.arubanetworks.com/t5/Controller-less-WLANs/How-to-Create-a-Certificate-for-Instant-Captive-Portal-using/ta-p/277025
- Apparently we can use any domain name can be used for the captive portal cert, however being used publicly and signed by a Root CA, you need to have authority over that domain name.
- It doesn't actually have to resolve to anything, however I found these notes in the Aruba Central guide "until customers are allowed to configure CName as part of the configuration. The customer must open a TAC ticket to activate the new certificate for Cloud Guest Service."
- Get the signed certificate back from the CA, and add the certificate to the Aruba Central Portal: Customer -> Network Management -> Configuration -> [Group Name] -> Wireless -> Security
- Add the Public Root CA certificate as a CA Certificate
- And the newly signed certificate from the original CSR as a Server Certificate
- Open an Aruba TAC ticket to activate the new certificate for Cloud Guest Service
Is this process correct? What is the typical turn-around to get the CName added to the configuration?

Re: Aruba Central + Guest Portal, Certificate Management
I´m in the same situation, doing a POC with a customer and they want to try the cloud guest portal and I need to add our own certificate.

"Elbow arthroscopy by Dr Ravi Mahajan"
About: Leicester General Hospital / Trauma and orthopaedics Leicester General Hospital Trauma and orthopaedics LE5 4PW
Posted by Sun (as ),
I injured my elbow when I fell playing cricket. Over the course of 18 months the pain got worse and could not fully straighten the elbow and kept locking a 2/3 times a week.
Subsequently an operation was carried out July 2013 by Dr Mahajan (arthroscopy and a nerve was decompressed)
I have to say all the team including the anesthetist and surgeon at the Leicester General were so pleasant and friendly.
Now 7 weeks and am very happy with the results. pain has gone down considerably, still cant fully extend elbow but very hopeful of improvement in the coming months.
Also so far elbow not locking: )

My Favourite Sauce
Recipe by Roxanne J.R.
I couldn't think of a name for this. But I love this combination of ingredients. I use it to dip fries and chicken nuggets or put it over fried rice before eating. You can even use it to coat your chicken wings! Use your favourite hot sauce and feel free to add more if it isn't hot enough for your taste.
Top Review by ChefDLH
I wanted to love this but I found the hot sauce to be so strong even with the two other ingredients. I am not putting stars because I am sure it could be just me. My lips are still burning. I do eat my tacos mild & stay away from jalapenos so it may have just been too much for just me. Thanks for posting Roxanne J.R. I think I will try again making it with less hot sauce. Enjoy! ChefDLH

The momentary contact switches shown in the application entitled RESILIENT CONTACT SWITCH by C. E. Taylor, Ser. No. 571,516, filed concurrently herewith and assigned to the same assignee as this application, can be easily adapted for usage in the present invention.
Replaceable chucks containing a selected surgical electrode useful in conjunction with this invention are shown in the application entitled DETACHABLE CHUCK FOR ELECTROSURGICAL INSTRUMENT by J. M. Esty, Ser. No. 571,517, filed concurrently herewith and having the same assignee as this application.
The application entitled SWITCHING DEVICE FOR ELECTRO-SURGICAL INSTRUMENTS by J. W. Jarrard, Ser. No. 315,678 filed Dec. 15, 1972, now U.S. Pat. No. 3,911,241, and which is also assigned to the same assignee as this application shows an early arrangement of a potential electro-surgical instrument.
The present invention relates to manually manipulable devices for electrically interfacing between an electro-surgical signal generator and an exposed surgical electrode. More particularly, this invention relates to surgical instruments which can be used substantially in the same manner as passive manual instruments but which include switching apparatus for permitting selection and activation of particular electro-surgical functions in association with the instrument. The present invention is especially useful by surgeons in performing electro-surgical procedures.
A wide variety of devices have been developed in the past for use by surgeons in operations. The early developments of hand tools have been supplemented by a further variety of electro-surgical apparatus. For instance, electrical pulses have been used for cauterizing and the like. Further, apparatus using high frequency or RF pulses have been employed for tissue cutting using exposed electrode elements in various configurations such as looped wires, needles, ball tips, blade-like arrangements and the like. The earlier electro-surgical devices generally required actuation via foot switches or manual switches which were inconveniently located for the surgeon or even required handling by an assistant. Such devices tend to degrade the direct control of the surgeon and thus have not always provided satisfactory results.
Accordingly, devices have been developed for the purpose of providing apparatus usable somewhat like passive surgical tool instruments but which incorporate immediately available switch apparatus so that the surgeon can directly select the electro-surgical procedure required while the instrument is in place. Devices for this purpose employing a cylindrical handle and rocker switch arrangement are shown in U.S. Pat. No. 3,801,766 by Morrison and U.S. Pat. No. 3,648,001 by Anderson, et al. However, there has been a continuing need for a surgical instrument which is adaptable for usage as a passive tool including means for selectable actuation as an electro-surgical device which has the feel of previous passive surgical instruments. Further, there has been a continuing need for such a device which can be totally sealed from the environment so that elements or materials associated with performance of a surgical procedure will not enter the instrument. Migration into the instrument by fluids associated with the operation can not only discount the effects of sterilization but can even cause malfunctioning or inadvertent functioning of the switch elements particularly if the fluid is an electrical conductor, such as blood. Still further, there has been a continuing need for such a combined passive and electro-surgical instrument which permits selection from amongst a plurality of switch functions by the surgeon without visual distraction from the procedure being performed.
This invention is a substantially flat elongated interfacing apparatus for providing the surgeon with the feel of a passive surgical tool while permitting selection and activation of electrical functions from an electro-surgical signal generator for coupling into an exposed surgical electrode. By incorporating relatively low profile momentary dome switch apparatus in the flat surface of the instrument near the end thereof to which the surgical electrode is attached, the surgeon can employ the tool passively and select and activate the electro-surgical function required with ease. By use of the deformable cap shown in the copending application cross-referenced above for a Resilient Contact Switch, the entire assembly can be sealed and the seal not degraded by actuation of the switch. A further feature of the present invention relates to the inclusion of one or more identifier nubs or symbols on the deformable switch caps so that the surgeon can identify the particular electro-surgical procedure being selected without requiring direct observation of the switch. Still further, the instrument can be adapted to include a replaceable chuck so that any of a wide variety of surgical electrodes can be employed without loss of electrical and environmental isolation of the electrical interface connection.
An object of this invention is to provide a device for interfacing between electro-surgical signal generators and a surgical electrode.
Another object of this invention is to provide a electro-surgical interfacing device which has the feel of a passive surgical tool but which permits manual selection of electro-surgical functions to be performed.
A further object of this invention is to provide an electro-surgical apparatus for providing switching and electro-surgical current conduction between an electro-surgical generator and an exposed surgical electrode through an apparatus which is totally sealed in a reliable manner from its environment.
The foregoing and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will be more apparent in view of the following detailed descriptions of exemplary preferred embodiments.
FIG. 1 is a top view of one embodiment of an electro-surgical pencil in accordance with this invention.
FIG. 2 is a partially sectioned side view taken along lines 2--2 of the FIG. 1 embodiment; and
FIG. 3 is a partially sectioned side view of another potential embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 1 illustrates one embodiment of an electro-surgical pencil in accordance with this invention; and FIG. 2 shows a partially sectioned side view thereof. Although both embodiments are illustrated in terms of a unipolar or single electrode electro-surgical instrument, it will be readily understood that the invention is easily adapted for other configurations. For instance, so-called bi-polar instruments which include two exposed electrodes can be easily accomodated with minimal modification or even through a common interfacing arrangement. One example of a bipolar chuck and interfacing arrangement with a handle is shown in the cross-referenced copending application entitled Detachable Chuck for Electro-Surgical Instruments by J. M. Esty.
The main housing 10 is arranged in a substantially flat elongated configuration. This housing more nearly approximates the flat handle feel of previous passive surgical instruments but still incorporates selector switches 11 and 12 near the end thereof so that the surgeon can select the desired electro-surgical procedure without movement of the instrument. At one end, replaceable chuck 15 is arranged so as to cooperate with the generally flat extension 16 from the body 10 in substantially the same manner as has been described in greater detail in the aforementioned cross-referenced application entitled Detachable Chuck For Electro-Surgical Instruments by J. M. Esty. As described in that application, chuck 15 has an exposed surgical electrode 18 which extends through the insulating body of chuck 15 so as to protrude within cavity 19. Thus the insulating shoulders of the chuck insert extension 16 on body 10 cooperates with chuck 15 so as to provide physical support as between the insulating sidewalls thereof while electrode 18 establishes a sliding contact for electrical current transmission therebetween but with this contact being substantially isolated from the environment of the surgery being performed. Although electrode 18 has been shown without the portion thereof which provides the passive and/or electro-surgical function such as a scalpel blade, wire loop or the like, it will be readily understood that any of these devices can be incorporated for the exposed portion of the electrode 18.
The broad general function performed by frame 10 with chuck 15 attached is to permit momentary switch actuations via switches 11 and 12 which are transmitted through a cable attached to socket 20 and then to an electro-surgical generator. The actuation of either of switches 11 or 12 in a typical application results in selection of a generally continuous high frequency signal as when switch 11 is actuated or a series of short RF pulses as when switch 12 is actuated. Whichever of these signals has been selected is returned from the signal generator through the cable (not shown) into socket 20 and thence through the housing 10 and into electrode 18 of chuck 15. In the particular example illustrated, selection of switch 11 produces a high frequency pulse for procedures such as tissue cutting with a wire loop at electrode 18 whereas selection of switch 12 effects a pulse selection into electrode 18 to provide cauterizing or coagulating functions.
Many surgical procedures require precise locating of the exposed tool element attached to electrode 18 and the maintenance of this position while the electro-surgical function desired is selected. A nub or protrusion 22 is shown in this example as being included in the upper surface of dome switch 11 and a pair of nubs or protrusions 23 and 24 are included on the upper surface of dome switch 12 so that the surgeon can identify the function to be performed by actuation of that switch simply by feel. Thus the attention of the surgeon need not be diverted from the operation being performed in association with the electrode 18. Note that a variety of other arrangements for identification by feel can be used. For example, a single nub can be incorporated on one switch and none on the other, single nubs can be used on both, other shapes or symbols or even words can be used if desired. Further, the identifying protrusion need not be placed directly on the dome but it is preferable to place it there so that the surgeon can tell what switch is about to be actuated.
FIG. 2 shows a section side view of the elements contained within housing 10. More particularly, electrical connector 25 is embedded in the chuck insert extension 16 of housing 10 and attached to conductor 27 which extends through the length of housing 10 to a terminal in the socket 20 (not shown in FIG. 2). Connector 25 suitably may be a spring-biased female connector which will permit sliding contact with electrode 18 when chuck 15 is placed over extension 16 and locked into place. The dome switches 11 and 12 illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2 are preferably similar to those described in detail in the copending application entitled Resilient Contact Switch by C. E. Taylor. As described in that application, cylindrical sidewalls 28 are bonded to and/or compressively retained within the retaining frame of housing 10. The upwardly arcuate configuration of these flexible devices permits downward movement of plunger 29 so as to momentarily deform deflectable metal dome 30 thus completing a switch function in association with electrical contact points on circuit board 31. The contact points, although not shown, may correspond to the electrical contact points 61,62 and 63, 64 shown in FIG. 3, and are connected by conductors running through the length of housing 10 into appropriate contacts at socket 20. A similar arrangement is incorporated for switch 12 which has contacts on underlying circuit board 31, these contacts being likewise independently connected to a conductor in socket 20. Note that the cap and dome for switch 12 (which would be similar to switch 11) are not shown in FIG. 2 to more clearly illustrate the retaining collar arrangement of bore 26 in housing 10. It should be noted that one common connector from socket 20 can be included with connections to peripheral lands under both switches 11 and 12 and a separate connector for each being located under the domes 11 and 12. The center connection would be typically interconnected to plug 20 via passage through board 31 and conductors on the lower side thereof. Thus only four conductors at socket 20 are needed to provide all necessary operations.
Note that circuit board 31 is retained in place by stub 32 which extends downward from the upper portion of housing 10 into a mating hole in board 31. The lower portion of housing 10 has a series of transverse ribs such as 34 and 35 spaced along its length to provide upward pressure on the lower surface of board 31 to hold it in proper position relative to switches 11 and 12. By fabricating the flexible dome caps and plungers for switches 11 and 12 of a flexible material such as silicone rubber and further by making cylindrical sidewalls such as 28 of slightly greater length than the inner bore of retaining rings therefor on housing 10 (i.e.: shouldered ring 36), the compression of the flexible dome caps into the radially shouldered retaining bores will effect a seal therebetween by upward pressure from the upper surface of board 31. Furthermore, by using the cross-section shown in FIG. 2 as is described in detail in the cross-referenced copending application for a Resilient Contact Switch by C. E. Taylor, the compression seal between retaining ring 36 and cap sidewall 28 will not be compromised by axial depression of the caps.
In assembly, housing 10 typically is fabricated from two matching components of electrically insulating plastic material which is compatible with high temperature sterilization. For instance, polycarbonate Merlin M-50, Lexan 2014 polysulfone (Union Carbide) or equivalent can be used. These materials can be ultrasonically bonded at the seams therebetween thus completing the encasing of housing 10. The inclusion of surface bonds on each shell of the housing somewhat like that described in the copending application entitled Detachable Chuck for Electro-Surgical Instruments by J. M. Esty will facilitate such ultrasonic welding. Further, access ports such as 33 can be included to permit injection of further sealant material such as silicone rubber at each end to insure sealed environmental isolation for the interior of housing 10.
The embodiment shown in FIG. 3 is particularly well suited for fabrication using low cost elements and techniques. More particularly, the main housing 40 is arranged so that a printed circuit board 41 extends throughout the length thereof with one tip 42 being flexibly retained at the extreme end thereof. Thus, insertion of replaceable chuck 45 onto the extension 46 will result in electrode 48 forcing downwardly on the upper clad surface of tip 42 thereby establishing a sliding electrical contact. This electrical contact is carried through board 41 into socket 50 which mates with plug 51 so that the downward projections such as 52 establish electrical contact at the other end with contacts 61, 62, 63, and 64. Further, switches 54 and 55 can be of the low profile deflectable configuration composed of flexible electrically conductive materials described in the co-pending Resilient Contact Switch application by C. E. Taylor.
More particularly, the domes 56 and 57 for switches 54 and 55, respectively, can be made of a deformable conductive material or non-conductive flexible material with conductive surfaces 56' and 57' associated with the lower ends of the coaxial plungers. Thus downward pressure of either of these switches will effect a switch function with respect to contact points on circuit board 58 and thus provide a signal through interconnections on board 41 into plug 51 and thence the electro-surgical generator. These switch domes are arranged for insertion into housing 40 and retained in place by collars 59 and 60 with this entire assembly thereafter being sonically welded. As with the FIG. 1 embodiment, nubs can be included on the upper surfaces of domes 56 and 57 to assist in function identification by feeling.
Plug 51 is preferably a molded silicone strain relief arrangement. The interior of housing 40 can be filled with silicone material or the like to increase stiffness and the entire apparatus can be fabricated from polypropylene molding procedures. It should be further noted that the chuck 45 and the extending electrode 48 can actually be molded as part of housing 40 rather than as a replaceable chuck. Under such circumstances, the entire housing 40 including its electrode can be employed as a low usage, low cost, throw-away apparatus. Further, the interior end of electrode 48 can be beveled so as to further increase sliding contact against the flexing tip 42 of board 41.
Although the present invention has been described with particularity with respect to the detailed description of the foregoing exemplary preferred embodiments, various modifications, changes, applications and additions will be readily apparent to those having normal skill in the art without departing from the spirit of the invention.

text: "We still have revenue and network gaps with Delta ( DAL) and United ( UAL)," he said. A merger with US Airways could provide American with the critical mass to compete. American's other labor unions also remain committed to a merger, for which Laura Glading, president of the Association of Professional Flight Attendants, has emerged as a key advocate. In a recent note, consulting firm Leading Edge said American pilots last month rejected a tentative contract deal by a 62%-38% margin partially because they felt that "rejecting the last best final offer was the best path to the US Airways merger. "Although mergers, with the contentious process of integrating seniority lists, are usually anathema to pilots, APA pilots are overwhelmingly in favor of a merger with US Airways" Leading Edge said. The tentative contract agreement with US Airways "is superior by orders of magnitude for the pilot group, offering a voluntary limit to a modest amount of code sharing and the promise of real compensation parity, to include profit sharing and retirement as well as wages, with industry leaders." While it is clear that US Airways has suffered from an inability to merge pilot seniority lists following a 2005 merger with America West, it is possible to conclude that a proposed decision , unveiled Tuesday by a U.S. District Court Judge in Phoenix, defines a path to resolve the dispute. That decision would tentatively enable US Airways to negotiate a joint contract with its pilots, after which pilots who felt disadvantaged by that contract's seniority provisions would have the right to sue.

Fort Johnson transformed by road work
- Fort Johnson transformed by road workBy Bob CudmoreSaturday, January 17, 2009
The changes that highway and urban renewal construction brought to the city of Amsterdam have been far reaching. But the village of Fort Johnson also changed drastically in the early 1960s when 2.26 miles of two-lane Route 5 was converted into a four-lane limited access highway.
The cost estimate for the Fort Johnson project was $1.88 million. The 5.72-mile Tribes Hill Route 5 project to the west was estimated at $1.64 million. The new road skirted Tribes Hill and relatively few buildings were destroyed. The road project eliminated many curves and narrow stretches that had caused accidents over the years.
A series of 18 Recorder newspaper clippings from a collection kept by the late Francis Dodds of Amsterdam shows vanished Fort Johnson landmarks. Dodds' parents' home in Fort Johnson was one of the houses taken.
Contractor Henry Butler tore down 35 homes and 20 other structures in Fort Johnson, most of them on the south side of old Route 5. The village of Fort Johnson and town of Amsterdam lost $160,000 in assessments from the property tax rolls.
An Atlantic auto service station, fuel tanks and the popular Tollner's ice cream stand on Route 5 were among the first buildings torn down. Reporter and historian Hugh Donlon wrote, "When the warm summer nights come again and demand returns for cooling confections, including the very popular 'brown cows,' many former patrons of the curb service will become increasingly aware of the big changes that are taking place in the village."
Also demolished were the Kanches Sunoco service station and the Shepard Homestead, also known as the Sweetstone or Bennett Convalescent Home near Old Fort Johnson historic site at the intersection with Route 67. The Old Fort itself, built in 1749, was spared. However, an imposing stone wall and stately walnut trees in front of the historic building were torn down for the new highway. A house and a series of garages to the west of the Old Fort were taken down to provide room for historic site parking.
West of the Old Fort, another business that was demolished was Mohawk Lodge, a long-established eating and drinking establishment, operated in its last years by Harold Philip and his wife. Philip relocated to Bordentown, New Jersey.
The 100-year-old Pepper residence in the west end of Fort Johnson also fell to the wrecking ball in the early 1960s. Walter Pepper and his family moved to Tribes Hill but apparently delayed the move as long as possible. In the rear of the Pepper residence in the 1960s was well-preserved stonework used by the electric trolley line of the Fonda, Johnstown & Gloversville Railroad to cross a creek.
Donlon wrote, "Route 5 had been narrowest at this point because the engineers of other years had a tight squeeze in getting the highway through the very limited space between the old home and the railroad tracks. A high retaining wall in front of the (Pepper) home added to the traffic hazards as motor vehicles became more numerous."
A Sinclair gas station at the corner of Brant Avenue was among the last buildings torn down. It was used as the engineering headquarters for the construction project.
Lepper Creek near the city of Amsterdam and Kayaderosseras Creek near Old Fort Johnson were routed underneath the new Route 5 by way of new culverts installed by Collins Brothers, contractors from Mechanicville.
As the 1960s continued, next in view of the contractors was Amsterdam itself. A grassy plot and stately trees at the city's west end were sacrificed for the highway, the first of many landmarks to disappear in the city in years to come.

Do your kids get excited when new movies are released? My kids aren't quite old enough to know such things, but I have to say that I actually get excited because it means something new for them (and lets be honest, me) to watch during the day. I think its clear from the Minnie Mouse post that I'm a huge fan of all things Disney, so we knew we would buy the Sleeping Beauty DVD as soon as it came out to add to our awesome Disney movie collection. I made watching it a special occasion and we had a little princess party with a few of our friends. June thought it was all very fun. I had everyone come in princess dresses and then gave each princess a little set that came with a crown, necklace and earrings. The girls loved it and looks so adorable in all their princess gear! Keep reading for all the adorable pictures and a recipe for Princess Popcorn!
We headed out to Walmart to purchase the diamond edition of Sleeping Beauty and also do some damage in the princess aisle. Like I mentioned I purchased the little tiara sets for each girl (only $5!, a great value), a princess dress for miss June and I couldn't help but also purchase the above pictured Sleeping beauty characters set. The princess aisle totally reminds me of being a little girl and wanting everything!
The girls totally loved their tiara sets, I love that they came with earrings, a necklace and the crown- so cute! To keep them occupied during the movie, because sometimes we know our littles don't stay mesmerized the entire time, I printed off Sleeping Beauty coloring sheets from THIS website.
What movie watching experience is complete without popcorn? I made a special treat for these adorable princesses to enjoy.
This popcorn is so easy to make, its kind of like making caramel corn. If you need something fast that your kids will think is extra special this popcorn will come to the rescue. It could easily be for any holiday or made special for any theme- just change out the color of candy melts and the type of sprinkles and bam you've got a million different combos that will be awesome. Pink and pretty little pastel flowers just happen to be perfect for princess parties. :)
Princess PopcornIngredients
- 1 bag microwave popcorn
- 1/2-1 cup pink candy melts
- Assorted pink sprinkles
Pop your popcorn according to package instructions. On a silpat lined baking sheet (Read all about why I love my Silpat HERE) lay out the popcorn in a single layer. Melt the candy melts in the microwave according to package instructions. Once melted and smooth put the melted candy into a ziplock bag and trim an end off with scissors. Use that end to squeeze out the candy melts over the popcorn. Add sprinkles on top of that. Take a spatula and mix the popcorn and melted candy all together, softly folding everything together. Let cool and then serve.

While GPS is currently leading the pack in terms of satnav system implementation, at a recent UN International Committee on Global Navigation Satellite Systems conference it was clear that competing systems are getting closer and could overtake it during the next decade. Presentations from Europe, Russia and China described active developments of worldwide satnav constellations, while India and Japan are moving ahead with regional networks. Though their signals will be compatible with GPS, these aren't simply clones, and Europe's Galileo, Russia's Glonass and China's Compass will offer several capabilities and services not currently available from GPS.
With its first satellite launched in the late 1970s, GPS has certainly been a trailblazer and today supports more than 300 million land, sea and airborne users around the world. Furthermore, the USAF spends some $1 billion per year to ensure consistently improving global performance, replacing older satellites with updated units that have progressively increased its accuracy and reliability.
However, one perceived major shortcoming of the system is that it employs too few satellites. GPS is a 24-satellite system, and while the Air Force diligently works to maintain that number, the military needs only 21, and that's a concern for civil aviation interests. Although spare satellites are in nearby "parking" orbits, it takes time to move them to replace failed units.
A United Airlines analysis shows that losing just one satellite of the 24 would inhibit many current GPS procedures, including five-nautical-mile en route separation. Losing one in a 27-satellite constellation would have a much less serious impact, while a 30-satellite configuration would be unaffected even if two satellites failed. Galileo, forecast to be operational in 2013, will have 27 satellites, and Glonass and Compass will each have 30, by 2012 and 2016, respectively.
Furthermore, the other satnav systems include or are planned to include more backup in the form of geostationary (GEO) WAAS satellites. While GPS is augmented by two, Galileo has three GEOs; Glonass will have two, possibly three; and Compass could have as many as five. Also, GPS simply provides separate signals for military and civil users, whereas the in-development systems will provide a range of signals tailored to meet various civil user needs, with some including fees for guaranteed performance, and others providing certain types of data communication.
The additional capabilities of non-U.S. satnav systems pose a dilemma for the Department of Defense and the U.S. government as they determine the capabilities of the next-generation GPS III. The first satellite of that system is forecast to be launched in 2015, with its full constellation operational by 2021. Adding more satellites would require a substantial investment, as would adding the services the other systems offer. On the other hand, GPS equipment and services have created valuable export opportunities for U.S. companies, and falling behind would be costly.
In fact, the business potential of satellite navigation has become at least as strong an incentive to foreign system developers as their earlier concerns about total reliance on GPS, owned and controlled by the DOD. A senior European official stated recently that the $12 billion investment in Galileo would be worth more than $600 billion by 2025. By that time, aviation-related services will account for very little of that sum. Last year 40 million GPS "smart" cellphones were sold in Europe alone, and even larger quantities were sold in Asia, along with car navigators and a vast array of other GPS-dependent equipment, much of it locally manufactured.

Now that Team Fortress 2 is completely free for all to play for almost a week, I hope you all have taken the time to check out one of the best multiplayer experiences you're going to play on PC & Mac. What you're probably not aware of is sometimes the characters in Team Fortress 2 like to attempt to dress up as other characters to see what it would be like to be them for the day. As you'll see in this video, Heavy decides he wants to be a Spy for the day.
The animation of the characters, their movements, and the all-around quirkiness remind me of what a Ren & Stimpy cartoon would look like in the Team Fortress 2 world. As much fun as Heavy has during his time as a Spy, he can't quite help himself but to convert to another character when he realizes he's been caught and needs to make his way out of the base.

so long story short, i have this really lovely coworker of mine that i want to ask out so bad, but it doesn't seem like i can do it? :S
im really an introverted person. i'Ve been wanting to ask her out for a while, today, i had the PERFECT oportunity to ask her, but i just froze:/ the words just couldnt come out!
she is iso lovely and so friendly towards me, i'd really hate to miss this oportunity, but then again, im soooo shy, I don't know what to do :/
if anybody has some feedback, please do share it! :)
Most Helpful Girl
Maybe say you think she is a great girl and ask for her number so you can at least still keep in contact with her and ask her when your ready at least if you can do that you won't fully miss the opportunity to ask her on a date.00|00|0
Most Helpful Guy
Give her a little sealed (not a postcard-type) greeting card (Hallmark has them for all occasions, such as a going away/last day of work thing. In the card (and do NOT get mushy!) along with the well-wishing for her future, share a little bit about how nice you have always thought she was ( do NOT say special, or beautiful!!!) and how working with her was a pleasure, and that you will miss her (this lets her think you are not going to stalk her or anything like that, i. e. you are prepared to let her have a life without seeing you again ever). Keep it a little neutral-sounding, not romantic. Include some way of getting in touch - and do NOT admit you have been pining for her for months!! Women today see that as weakness, and will run away at full speed. You could include that you are sometimes shy and never ignored her except when the shy-bug bit (I am assuming you have on a few occasions, it's ok!), so she will understand why you never or hardly ever expressed yourself with her before. Let her think about it, and do NOT call her 18 times after midnight 3 nights in a row if you happen to wind up with her actual phone number - and do NOT secretly find out what it is after she hasn't given it to you, because that is a stalker red-flag. Email is better, as you can just casually drop a line without it being seen as a "love-letter" or like that. Keep it light, and see what happens.

CFX Post: Problems with moving point cloud for changing time steps
I'm using ANSYS CFX and have a plane where I want to obtain the velocity field having a rectangular equidistant grid (solution used non equidistant grid). For this I define a rectangular point cloud and export the results, for every time step. However the problem is that for every time step the location of the points in the point cloud (or the rectangular grid of the point cloud) slightly translates. I think this is related to my FSI simulation where there is a moving boundary condition.
Is there a way to resolve this problem and obtain a solution where the xy coordinates of the points in the point cloud remain the same for every time step?
I've tried everything and a solution for this problem would be very welcome. Therefor I hope to hear from you soon with any suggestions, and thank you in advance!!!
Kindest regards.
P.S. One way to resolve this problem would be defining every point seperately (making your own point cloud), however that takes a significant amount of time in comparison with exporting the results of a point cloud (also if you automise it with MATLAB, it takes CFX alot of time for creating all the points and interpolating the results).
