Wireless Headphones
I have decided to buy wireless headphones, but I can't decide from which manufacturer to buy? Pioneer, TDK WR700 or Sony Digital Noise-Canceling Headphones. I think Sony Digital Noise is the best choice. Your thoughts please?

I don't know about any of those. However, avoid Sennheiser wireless. I have one from Sennheiser and they are iffy at best. Actually so good, that they are now "collecting dust".

I have the Sony MDR-970R and they're not worth the time to recharge the battery. At first, I thought they were handy but they're a worthless piece of "you know what". After about 10-15 minutes, they give a loud POP and base unit shuts off. If the volume is up on the headset, it's enough to hurt your ears. I'm afraid to wear the things now. If you unplug the power and reconnect, it might last for another 30-60 minutes (or not) then it pops and shuts down again. I think it's over heating as the base seems to get pretty warm while in operation.
And, the sound quality is not very good. It has a syncing button and two or three presses will bring it in better but it still has a raspy sound. No amount of adjusting or distance changes the poor quality audio.

I always go for the brands Sony and Bose, because they are known for their finest sound qualities. You have to know your purpose for buying a wireless headset. Is it for gaming purpose or just for listening to music; is it for home use, or for mobile phones? My personal choice is a Sony MDRDS6500 Wireless Surround Digital Headphone.
This one is free from cord constriction which can go for up to 328 feet away from the transmitter in any direction you choose. You can use it with music, movies, games and more.

I notice Sennheiser is listed in the 10 best. As I noted I have a "studio quality" Sennheiser and it is junk. I wanted it for my recording studio use but 3 feet is all the further I could get from the base unit.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
Anglo-Saxons of Britain first developed the name Hearink. It was a name given to someone who was a person who made a living by catching or selling herring. Early examples of the surname Hearink come from the Old French word hareng, while later examples come from the Old English word hering, which was originally derived from the Old English words hæring and hering; these words all mean herring. Occupational names such as Hearink frequently were derived from the principal object associated with the activity of the original bearer, such as tools or products. These types of occupational surnames are called metonymic surnames.
Hearink Early Origins
Oxfordshire where they held a family seat from very ancient times, some say well before the Norman Conquest and the arrival of Duke William at Hastings in 1066 A.D.
Hearink Spelling Variations
Hearink Spelling Variations
Spelling variations in names were a common occurrence before English spelling was standardized a few hundred years ago. In the Middle Ages, even the literate spelled their names differently as the English language incorporated elements of French, Latin, and other European languages. Many variations of the name Hearink have been found, including Herring, Herrin, Hering and others.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
Families began migrating abroad in enormous numbers because of the political and religious discontent in England. Often faced with persecution and starvation in England, the possibilities of the New World attracted many English people. Although the ocean trips took many lives, those who did get to North America were instrumental in building the necessary groundwork for what would become for new powerful nations. Among the first immigrants of the name Hearink, or a variant listed above to cross the Atlantic and come to North America were: Christopher Hering arrived in Philadelphia in 1783 along with George and Jacob; Joseph Herring settled in Barbados in 1635; Simon Herring settled in Virginia in 1663.

Your 1- to 2-year-old child should drink 16 to 24 ounces of whole milk a day. While you'll most likely have to work to make sure he meets the requirement, keep in mind that it is possible for him to drink too much milk.
If your child drinks more than two to three glasses of milk during the day, he may not have room at dinner for the other foods that he needs to round out his diet. (He needs plenty of iron-rich foods like leafy green vegetables and meat, for example, because milk does not contain iron.) So if your toddler's thirsty, get him in the habit of drinking water throughout the day, too.

Life Better for North Dakotans in Town and on the Farm
Fargo, 1915
Life on the farm and in the towns is no longer the dreary and often dreadful existence that faced the early homesteaders and community builders. To be sure, farmers and ranchers toil long hours without electricity and still fight prairie fires and isolation for long stretches of time in the winter, but the small, drafty homestead shack is pretty much a thing of the past.
Frame houses and improved soddies with cheery and well-furnished interiors are products of the farm prosperity of our times. Many have purchased new machinery, and some have automobiles. Trips to town are much more frequent than just a few years ago.
The towns have become busy centers of trade, entertainment, and culture. The larger towns have numerous specialty stores such as music, drug, apparel, shoe, candy, cigar, grocery. The latest in Minneapolis fashions and even California oranges are available. Both Fargo and Grand Forks have department stores with four floors of tempting goods. In smaller towns large general stores sell clothing, hardware, groceries, and most anything a customer needs. Stores usually stay open on Saturday nights to accommodate farm families.
The bright lights of the cities — electricity has replaced the dimness of gas — attract rural folks to a wide variety of entertaining and cultural events. Sporting contests, moving pictures, traveling groups of vaudevillians (singing, comedy, acrobatic, and animal acts), street fairs, attractive parks, circuses, even opera and stage plays, give visitors and residents much to do. Libraries have the latest publications. The state's Public Library Commission, organized in 1907, sends out over 300 traveling libraries to towns that do not have a permanent library.
Town bands and fraternal organizations are especially popular. Every town, every Indian reservation, every high school, even stores and social organizations, have bands. The music of John Phillips Sousa fills the North Dakota air. We are band crazy!
Fraternal organizations bring men together in large numbers. The Masons, Odd Fellows, Knights of Pythias, Young Men's Christian Association, Foresters, Elks, Woodmen of the World, and Sons of Norway provide men with a social setting. The Rebekahs, Eastern Star, Womens Christian Temperance Union, and Red Cross appeal to some women although many find musical and literary clubs more to their liking.
Whether in the country side or in towns, the church remains the main gathering place for not only spiritual but also social occasions. North Dakota has 2,500 churches with a combined membership of 226,000 people. About 40 percent are Roman Catholic and 30 percent are Lutheran. The rest are mostly Methodist, Presbyterian, Congregational, Baptist, and Episcopal. The church is especially important for our immigrant families. Their worship services are usually conducted in the native language, and before and after the service people exchange news from the old country. In both rural and town churches, women play one very important role. The men govern but the women raise the money for building and expanding facilities and activities. Ladies aids, altar societies, and Sunday schools provide women with both religious and social experiences.
Life in North Dakota is changing quickly. The towns are paving their old muddy streets and laying water and sewage systems. Telephones (Grand Forks, has 2,000!) are making life easier. And, the automobile, that wonderful horse-less carriage, is bringing everything closer.

text: Hey guys so I had an amazing experience 5 days ago at work. A missionary was outside of our store doing what he does collecting money for the less fortunate and sick..etc. I went out and talk to him naturally because I love my bros and sisters in Christ. Had such a great conversation ... my 8 hour shift felt like minutes. Told him my deepest sinful addictions (porn/masturbating) and he explained to me how to overcome these things. He's been to many places in the world including the middle east and been threatened to have his head cut off and people constantly putting him down calling him a con artist or a fake ..etc This guy was so genuine and innocent. I didnt see him drink or eat once. So near the end of my shift I got him food and drinks and gave it to him. He was so shocked as if I had given him a 100k check . Also donated to him to help. I never carry cash but luckily that day I had found some money on the floor "coincidence?" He constantly told me "Your a blessed man sir..... God bless you and your family" When my shift was over I gave him a hug and aksed him for his social media info or phone number but he doesnt have any of that so I just said I hope to meet him again and parted ways. As I was walking away he said God will bless you and you're family. Ever since that day I have literally had no desire to watch pornography or masturbate. Its been 5 days. Normally I cant even go 2 full days without one or the other. Even now I have no desire at all. I'm also not looking at woman lustfully anymore. I've never had this happen before. I felt so good and happy talking with him that day. It was so refreshing .Was that an angel or something?

It is not just ministers who are being moved around today: the Downing Street operation is also changing around. Though the people involved in these moves are less well-known than Cabinet ministers, in modern-day government — with its centralization of power in Number 10 — they are almost as important and in some cases more so.
Oliver Dowden, who currently links up Number 10 and CCHQ, is becoming deputy Chief of Staff. I'm told that Dowden, widely regarded as one of the most able operators in the Conservative party, will have a particular emphasis on ensuring that domestic policy is driven through the government machine. The move is a recognition that Number 10 needs to start watching departments more closely if it is to get through the changes it needs to kick-start the economy and cement its reform agenda.
Dowden's political role will be taken by Adam Atashzai, who cut his teeth working on the Treasury brief in CCHQ and is well regarded by George Osborne. This is further proof that the Chancellor's influence on — and interest in — the Number 10 political machine is as strong as ever.
Ed Llewellyn and Kate Fall remain in their posts. I understand that Fall has been tasked with keeping a close eye on party and ministerial management.

Give CUBE's product managers the freedom to use only the very best materials and components to make a carbon hardtail and the result is the Elite C:68 SLT. It's a dream bike comprised exclusively of innovative, cutting edge technology like SRAM's new Eagle 1x12 transmission and the revolutionary RockShox RS-1 upside down suspension fork. It goes without saying that the SLT is as fast as it looks...
Features: SRAM set the cat amongst the proverbial pigeons with the introduction of its 1x12 Eagle groupset. Being able to access an extraordinarily wide range of gears from a single chainring and 10-50 tooth cassette means that shifts are always quick and precise, leaving the rider to concentrate on getting the power down. The RockShox RS-1 is similarly peerless, setting new standards in suspension performance for XC racing. Rounding off this exclusive and exceptional bike are DT's top end XMC 1200 carbon wheels, the incredibly reliable Magura MT8 disc brake system and Syntace Carbon finishing components.
There are currently no questions and answers for this product.
There are currently no reviews for this product.

The Hands of Jesus
The audio of the Bible Truth Broadcast Radio Show for the air date of Sunday, August 30, 2009 has been posted. This is broadcast number 3609, entitled "The Hands of Jesus" by Jim Hunt. When Jesus touched eyes that had dried out, they suddenly admitted light and color again. Once He touched a woman who suffered with a hemorrhage, knowing that by Jewish law she would make Him unclean. He touched those with leprosy - people no one else would touch. In small and personal ways, His hands set right what had been disrupted by the Fall.

A WOMAN broke down yesterday as she told a court that her boyfriend knowingly infected her with HIV.
Anne Craig, 34, who has three children, said she had unprotected sexual intercourse every night for weeks with Stephen Kelly, 33. She knew he had been an intravenous drug user and asked him if he had been tested for HIV, but he said there was no danger. Several weeks later, when she had flu symptoms, he confessed that he had HIV.
Kelly is the first person in Scotland to be accused of endangering his girlfriend's life by having intercourse with her while knowing that he might pass on the virus.
Miss Craig, from Manchester, told the High Court in Glasgow that they met in 1993. Before they had intercourse, she asked him if there was a reason why they should use protection. She said: "I had heard all the Aids scares. I was being cautious."
After learning that she had tested positive, he admitted that he had lied and asked her to sign a statement that she would not prosecute him. Miss Craig told the court that the relationship continued for a time because she "did not want to die alone".
The trial continues.

Many people have expressed the difficulty of beginning article marketing, but really it's only difficult when you don't know enough about it. The more you learn concerning article marketing, you will find that it is simpler to get started. Keep reading this article for some useful article marketing tips.
You should write short and succinct paragraphs, like the one in which this tip is contained. Popular opinion supports the theory that people stand a higher chance of becoming distracted when reading their material online, rather than from a book or paper. It is important to streamline your writing as much as possible by cutting out every word that not absolutely essential in getting your main message across.
You should be aware of the submission rules to an article directory. There are varied submission guidelines for each directory.
To be a successful article marketer, your writing must be unique. Boring, emotionless and plain writing will get you nowhere. They bring a bit of themselves to everything they write, too.
Even though articles for marketing have certain word requirements, the first draft isn't the best time to think about that. The author should use his or her judgment about the length of the article when it is being drafted. Writers can always pare articles down while editing; very long pieces may be best split into two separate articles.
Write only articles that are relevant to your links and keywords. Through the title, keywords, links, and summary, everything has to be interconnected. If the connection makes no sense, it will not be recognized by search engines.
Endeavor to write something new, even if the topic has been covered hundreds of times. Innovative writing is the best way to succeed. Copying other writer's work, just to fill up a page, is not going to help you.
Generally speaking, your articles are accessible on the web for an indefinite amount of time. Consequently, there is always the possibility that they will continue to drive traffic to some degree. You can rapidly expand your customer base by promoting one article from another one of your articles.
With the advice you've read here, your goals should be easy to attain. Keep educating yourself on article marketing to keep your methods fresh and effective. The best way to be the most successful is to learn everything you can about a topic and then put all that information into practice.

As mobile gadgets rise in shipments each year, traditional laptops and desktop computers continue to slump. HP, who's been such a strong player for Windows-powered machines, is fully aware of the situation, and has turned its attention to the one market that values conventional computing: Gamers.
Earlier today, HP made its case in the Philippines' gaming scene with the launch of its OMEN series of laptops. If you're familiar with dominantly red-and-black lineup, you'd know how it's marketed to the gaming community.
Available in 17.3- and 15.6-inch display sizes, the OMEN notebooks focus more on mobile practicality and established components, like the Pavilion convertible we featured last month.
This means they aren't as sleek as the Spectre series, but they do offer the full range of connectivity ports and a solid keyboard to play with. You'll have access to full-sized USB 3.0, HDMI, and Ethernet ports, as well as a Mini DisplayPort if you're into high-quality outputs. There's also a set of Bang & Olufsen speakers, so you don't have to rely on external hardware.
This isn't to say the OMEN gaming laptops skimp on performance, though. They can be outfitted with processors as powerful as a sixth-generation Intel Core i7, RAM totaling 16GB, and built-in storage reaching as much as 2TB. Of course, like any other gamer rig, a dedicated NVIDIA graphics card would always be available to push the Full HD or 4K resolution you choose.
When it comes down to it, putting the words gaming and laptop beside each other is tough to stomach for some hardcore gamers, but there's certainly a market for them. They essentially replace desktop setups, especially for consumers who can't stay put or don't have the time to build their own customized PC.
Prices begin at $900 in international markets, while the Philippines is limited to configurations starting at PhP 55,000. That puts the OMEN series squarely in between its rivals in the mobile gaming segment.

THE chief of Queensland's most powerful government-owned corporation approved more than $1 million for hospitality, sponsorships and donations - at the same time as he joined the Costello razor gang to slash State Government costs.
Doug McTaggart was chief executive of the Queensland Investment Corporation when he and his team treated themselves and their clients to dinners and cocktail parties, tickets to the State of Origin, Ashes Tests, rugby matches, the Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival, international tennis fixtures and art gallery receptions.
Dr McTaggart joined former treasurer Peter Costello's commission of audit in April. It recommended cuts to the Queensland public service as part of an austerity drive to reduce state debt.
In its annual report to Parliament the QIC said it spent $1,152,160 on corporate entertainment, gifts, sponsorships and advertising.
There was scant detail about much of the expenditure.
Beside some items were vague descriptions such as "networking function for high-value clients", or "strengthening existing relationships and (to) forge new ones".
The names of companies or individuals who received the largesse were kept secret.
Premier Campbell Newman put the QIC on notice yesterday, after writing to all government-owned corporations in April warning them to review expenditure.
"I wrote to all GOCs in April stating that I expected boards to review expenditure and align themselves with the broader public sector measures being undertaken by the Government," Mr Newman said.
"I am confident the QIC will heed this request."
QIC chairman Peter Young yesterday defended the expenditure but added: "QIC has sought to align itself with the Government's austerity measures and has reduced corporate entertainment spending by 20 per cent over the coming year.
"As a fully commercialised and successful funds management organisation, delivering this commercial success involves some entertainment activities to help build and maintain relationships with clients and prospects."
The QIC executives and the mystery clients went to the nation's premier sporting events to "build and strengthen relationships with key decision-making contacts in a social situation".
This phrase was repeated seven times in the report but no further details were given.
Dr McTaggart was chief of the QIC for 14 years on a final salary of $828,000 before handing the reins to Damien Frawley in June. During his term Dr McTaggart saw the QIC amass $64.7 billion in funds under management.
The report provides a rare insight into the world of the elite of banking and finance.
A dinner for the QIC board and executives at the plush Brisbane Club in December last year cost $7000.
A golf day cost $11,454.
A staff Christmas party cost $50,000 while a mid-year picnic $26,000. The report said these were held to lift morale.
There were donations to the Great Barrier Reef Foundation and the Premier's Flood Relief Appeal. Expenditure under $5000 is not required to be declared.
Mr Young said entertainment expenses are funded from revenue generated through QIC's commercial operations.
Dr McTaggart was not available yesterday.

It is my pleasure to welcome you to the Dunedin Multidisciplinary Health and Development Research Unit website. Here you will find information about the Dunedin Multidisciplinary Health & Development Study (Dunedin Study for short) which has now been ongoing since 1972-73, over 40 years. We tell you how the Study began, details of the assessments we have conducted and the publications that have been generated. We have also been conducting two sub-studies of the Dunedin Study: the Parenting Study and the Next Generation Study. Information about both these studies can be found on this website. Whether you are a Study member, researcher, or a member of the public, I hope you will find this information interesting and useful.
Thanks to the continued outstanding support and commitment of our Study members, we achieved 95% retention at the age 38 assessment (2010-2012), a target we are hoping to maintain during the current age 45 assessment phase (2017-2019). This level of support continues to be humbling for all of us who are involved in this Study.
Professor Richie Poulton, FRSNZ
Due to privacy issues and to preserve confidentiality, we strongly recommend Study members do not use the Facebook site to message, post or update personal or contact details, but rather do this via email or the online form.

Roaring Lion Fire Now Nearly 2,000 Acres – 500 Homes Evacuated – Some Structures Lost – Bitterroot National Forest Spokesman 'I've Never Seen Anything Like It'
Roaring Lion Fire now at 2,000 acres in less than 12 hours.
Roaring Lion Fire now at 2,000 acres in less than 12 hours.
The Sheep Mountain Fire located in the Rocky Mountain Ranger District was reported Monday morning at 2,282 acres and growing.
Rain and snow fell on many wildfires in Montana over the weekend, helping firefighters make significant progress in containment in some areas.
Cooler temperatures and some much needed precipitation encouraged some evacuations to be lifted in Missoula and Mineral counties.
So far, over 300 residents have been evacuated due to the West Fork Fish Creek fire burning between Mineral and Missoula Counties.
Mineral County and parts of Missoula County underwent new fire evacuations this past weekend as the West Fork Fish Creek Fire continued to grow to over 12,000 acres. But within the past 48 hours, fire information officer Kim Smolt said clear skies have finally led firefighters to get eyes on the fire for the first time since the fire started.
Missoula County Sheriff's deputies have spent the day assisting their Mineral County counterparts in helping to evacuate residents in the area in the path of the West Fork Fish Creek fire complex.
Lightning sparked a fire that ignited Thursday in the Ninemile Ranger District. It's grown to 2,900 acres since then. The fire is located about 15 miles southwest of Tarkio, west of Missoula.
The Sheep Fire, part of the Thompson-Divide Complex, blew up on Thursday, prompting the closure of an 8-mile stretch of U.S. Highway 2 and evacuation notices for more than 100 homes and businesses. However, NBC Montana reports clouds and heavy smoke made the Sheep Fire less active on Friday.
Mandatory evacuations were issued yesterday afternoon in the town of Essex as the Sheep Fire overwhelms Flathead County.

Scottish Executive accused of "lack of ambition" on renewables
The Scottish Executive was accused of a "startling lack of ambition" in renewable energy policy during a debate at Holyrood on 8 February. Scottish Nationalists said that the Executive should increase its renewables target for 2010 to 25% - and make Scotland the "green powerhouse of Europe".

Amber Heard is 'trying to put Johnny Depp on trial through the media'
Amber Heard is "trying to put Johnny Depp on trial through the media", an insider in his camp has claimed.
The Magic Mike 2 star (30) filed for divorce from her husband of 15 months earlier this month and has alleged he abused her throughout their marriage. While Depp has denied the claims and remained silent on specific examples,
Now, sources close to the Pirates of the Caribbean star (xx) allege Heard is building her case in the court of public opinion, according to Us Weekly.
Heard is concerned that a police report would "trigger an arrest and prosecution" and "doesn't want to bury" Depp, TMZ reports.
A statement from Amber's legal team said the actress would be filing a police report, but now the site reports that sources connected with Amber have said that the actress has "had a change of heart".
Depp's lawyer has denied the abuse allegations and said in court documents that Heard is "attempting to secure a premature financial resolution by alleging abuse".
Images of bruised face, which she allege were caused by Depp, have gone viral since they were first published in PEOPLE magazine. A supposed text conversation (which was later denied) between Heard and Depp's assistant Stephen Deuters, in which he apologised for his abuse, were also leaked.
On June 3, she filed a defamation lawsuit against comic Doug Stanhope, in response to a piece he wrote for The Wrap in which he accused her of blackmailing the supersta.
Depp is reportedly "waiting for his day in court", the mag adds.
That day is soon - in fact, it's June 17 when a judge will assess the status of a temporary restraining order that was granted against Depp. He has been busy touring Europe with his band Hollywood Vampires.
Most recently, it was reported that Heard was arrested for domestic violence in 2009 in an incident with ex-girlfriend Tasya van Ree. The photographer has come out in defence of her former partner, saying: "I recount hints of misogynistic attitudes toward us which later appeared to be homophobic when they found out we were domestic partners and not just 'friends'. Charges were quickly dropped and she was released moments later."
Depp's friend Benicio Del Toro dsecibed the Danish Girl actress as being "really twisted...but I don't know the specifics."

Diver getting his teeth cleaned by FISH is surprisingly disgusting video
GOING to the dentist is no fun, but this video of a diver getting his teeth cleaned by fish is somewhat disturbing.
Deep sea daredevil Michael filmed himself getting his gnashers polished by two bluestreak cleaner wrasse fish in Dahab Sinai, Egypt.
The cringeworthy video shows the fish weaving in and out of his mouth precariously close to swimming down his throat.
The footage, which has been viewed by over 225,000 people on YouTube, has had some hilarious responses on the video-sharing website.
"Free dental! Apply now! Under the sea!"Kalmia Turpin, YouTube user
Kalima Turpin wrote: "Free dental! Apply now! Under the sea!"
And Vriska Serket suggested using a slightly more aggressive type of fish.
He said: "For best effect use piranhas."
While that may be going a bit too far, this footage is sure to already put many off underwater checkups.
Earlier this week, a giant humpback whale terrified kayakers after they caught the huge beast jumping out of ocean.
The massive wave created by the marine mammal almost knocks some of the kayakers out of their boats.

A new exhibition kickstarts a series of events taking place in Dublin this year to mark the 350th anniversary of the birth of Jonathan Swift.
The writer is best known for Gulliver's Travels, regarded as one of the greatest pieces of satirical writing in the English language.
The exhibition, which runs at Pearse Street Library until the end of the month, concentrates on Swift's life in Dublin.
Swift was born on 30th November 1667 in Dublin, and educated at Trinity College and Oxford University.
In 1713 he became Dean of St Patrick's Cathedral.
The first of his major satirical works - A Tale of a Tub - was published in 1704.
Gulliver's Travels was published in 1726 and has never been out of print.

What's the funniest thing about Christmas? Other people's dysfunctional families! Stage 3's current production of Tom Dudzick's Greetings! gives us a good dose of that crazy, crazed, family hilarity, combined with sweet fantasy and maybe a little food for thought. All in all, a good Christmas entertainment --- kind of a modern Dickensian Christmas Carol.
Stage 3 has assembled a group of five, fine actors under the inspired direction of Jay Newington. Anthony DeGregorio, striking the right tone for the son who got away, and Susannah Holland, amazing as his disabled sibling who will never leave, have pleased Stage 3 patrons this season in previous roles. Mike Moon, the cranky dad, Sherry Dumos , the perfect longsuffering wife and mother, and Kaitlyn Brennan, the sweetly innocent houseguest, are all veterans of Stage 3, as well as other area theaters. Dumos played a much more abrasive character in Stage 3's most recent production, Good People.
As the head of the house, Phil Gorski (Moon) rules with a bellowing voice, much like Archie Bunker did in that TV household of the 70's. It is Christmas 1990 in Pittsburgh, and on the Gorski's street only four families have put up lights, prompting Phil to a tirade on neighborhood atheists. No matter that the electricity is as unreliable as Phil's Christmas spirit. He sees himself as the model of Christian values, though the audience sees his grouchy, narrow-mindedness much differently. Fortunately, wife Emily (Dumos) is of a more kindly nature though she doesn't exactly "turn-the-other-cheek" to Phil's temper. The only consistently good-natured part of the family is the 20-something, developmentally disabled Mickey (Holland).
Speaking of atheists, the Gorski's son Andy (DeGregorio) who has relocated to New York City, is about to arrive and is bringing his girlfriend Randi (Brennan), whom we discover along with the Gorskis, is not only of Jewish descent, but an avowed atheist. We can guess what conflict ensues. By the end of Act I, it looks like all Christmas (and Christian) feeling has left the building, until a surprise twist involving Mickey brings a new direction to this family gathering and revelations that call for more sympathy. Director Newington calls the play "an exploration of spirituality" and hopes the audience will find it "inspirational."
Special appreciation goes to Susannah Holland for bringing so much skill to the part of Mickey. She had to present Mickey in constant action and affect, but without much dialogue or even much interaction with the other characters all through Act I. Yet her Mickey was a believably charming child in an adult body, and Holland sensitively portrayed her disability. Act II calls for a very different role from this actor, who is up to the challenge.
The song "Home for the Holidays" with its repetitious, phrase "home sweet home" adds just the right irony to set the stage for Act II, which to the audience's delight opens at the very moment Act I ends. You won't be able to wait to see some explanation for what has occurred. Suffice to say, that explanation comes, and it changes everyone, even Phil, though not quickly, and not assuredly in the right direction. In the process, everyone has to take responsibility for his or her own version of reality, so of course, conflicts continue in the search for common ground. At one point Andy shouts in desperation, "I can't toss it off, just because I can't explain it." And that becomes, for this viewer, a summary of faith, even though we may never all agree on the details. Merry Christmas.
"Greetings" is open now and runs through December 21 at Stage 3, 208 South Green Street, Sonora. Call 209-536-1778 for tickets or go to www.Stage3.org

MathWorks announces the winners of the 2016 MATLAB and Simulink Hardware Challenge. Congratulations and thanks to all those who entered.
This project features an omnidirectional wheeled robot that can also move sideways as opposed to normal cars and robots. The complex simulation for this robot is validated by deploying the code to an actual robot. In order to properly control the robot in a dynamic environment, Robotics System Toolbox is used to create a controller that is robust and adaptive. Image Processing Toolbox is also used to determine the real-time position of the robot. By using SimMechanics, the experimental trajectory of the robot is compared with its simulated trajectory. This project illustrates how various toolboxes can be used to methodically modify a simulation to be used in the real world.
This project aims to enhance the virtual reality experience by sending data from various sensors, such as the Microsoft Kinect, to MATLAB so that the information can be processed and sent back to a virtual reality headset. Image Acquisition Toolbox is used to obtain information from the Kinect sensor and then objects of interest are detected by MATLAB. Image Processing Toolbox and Computer Vision System Toolbox are utilized to further analyze these images coming in from the Kinect sensor. Additionally, this group uses serial communication to send data between the various sensors, Arduino boards, and MATLAB. This project demonstrates how several devices and MATLAB can be used to enrich immersive technologies.
This project showcases a hexapod robot capable of making decisions based upon environmental triggers such as colored tags. By using Image Processing Toolbox and Computer Vision System Toolbox, the hexapod reacts to visual stimuli captured by the robot's on-board camera. The movement of the robot is determined by a control algorithm which utilizes the mathematical model of a neural circuit. To mimic stereovision with only one camera, Curve Fitting Toolbox is used to analyze experimental data. This project is an example of how low cost hardware can be used for machine learning.
