Jerusalem Police Arrest Sheikh Jarrah Activist
Michael Solsberry detained after protestors reach disputed homes for first time.
Jerusalem police arrested Michael Solsberry, one of the key activists in the ongoing protests in Sheikh Jarrah, at his home in Pisgat Ze'ev on Friday evening.
For more than a year and a half, activists have organized protests against the takeover of Palestinian homes in the east Jerusalem neighborhood by groups of settlers.
On Friday, demonstrators were for the first time able to reach the disputed homes. Until then, protests were limited to a nearby public park because of the refusal of police to allow demonstrators to approach the homes.
A handful of demonstrators protested earlier Friday outside the controversial Shepherd Hotel in Sheikh Jarrah. The Jerusalem municipality gave final approval this week to a settler group for the construction of 20 apartments next to the hotel, a decision that added to recent tensions between Israel and the United States.
The demonstrators moved on from the hotel to the disputed homes in the same neighborhood, apparently without the police noticing them.
The arrest of Solsberry on Friday evening appears connected to the demonstrations earlier in the day. Solsberry was arrested at the home of his parents where he lives.
Lawyer Leah Tsemel, who accompanies the demonstrators, went to the police station and was told that Solsberry had been detained for disorderly behavior.
Around 100 activists have been arrested during protests in Sheikh Jarrah. Most were released by judges who criticized the police conduct.

13 April 2015 - ONR LDUUV prototype at the Sea-Air-Space Exposition in Baltimore (ONR Photo)
The Office of Naval Research's Large Displacement Unmanned Underwater Vehicle Innovative Naval Prototype (LDUUV INP) program will develop a large unmanned submersible able to conduct missions longer than 70 days in open ocean and littoral seas. LDUUV will be launched from a pier or a variety of platforms, including the Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) and the Virginia class nuclear submarine via its payload module or an enhanced dry deck shelter. The craft's missions will include ISR, acoustic surveillance, Anti-submarine Warfare, mine counter-measures, and offensive operations.
The vehicle's manufacturing and development phase will begin in 2015 with testing planned for 2018. According to the Navy's ISR Capabilities Division, LDUUV will reach initial operating capability as a squadron by 2020 and full rate production by 2025.
ONR Technology Development Awards
In 2011, ONR issued broad area announcements (BAA) requesting proposals to develop three technologies for the LDUUV program: energy systems, autonomy in the littorals, and endurance technologies. In June 2012, ONR awarded a $5.9 million three-year, sole-source contract to Hydroid Inc. to develop an autonomy testing system. Hydroid will use its REMUS vehicle to test these technologies.
In July 2012, ONR awarded FuelCell Energy, Inc. an 18 month $3.8-million Phase I contract to develop and test an 1,800 kWh Hybrid Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC)-Battery power system. The SOFC fuel cell technology was developed by Versa Power Systems, a company partially owned by FuelCell Energy. Other development partners include NASA's Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center Energy Systems Division, Yardney Technical Products, Inc., Naval Underwater Warfare Center (NUWC), and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL). Sierra Lobo Inc. of Fremont, Ohio was also awarded a $20 million research contract to develop a cryogenic fuel cell-powered undersea vehicle energy system.
On 20 July 2012, Hamilton Sundstrand was awarded an $18 million contract to develop an energy-dense air independent power system for the program. The system will consist of a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC), and cryogenically-stored fuel and oxidant. Other propulsion development awardees include General Atomics in San Diego; Lynntech Inc. in College Station, Texas; and NexTech Materials Ltd. in Lewis Center, Ohio.
Future Deployment
The LDUUV prototype's navigation algorithms and sense-and-avoid technologies were tested in 2016 with a cruise from San Francisco to San Diego. The Program Executive Office for Littoral Combat Ships' (PEO LCS) Unmanned Maritime Systems program office (PMS 406) designated the vehicle "Snakehead."
Large Displacement Unmanned Underwater Vehicle Program Achieves Acquisition Milestone
3 September 2015 - The Naval Sea Systems Command received a risk-reduction decision approval August 17, known as a Milestone A decision, for the Large Displacement Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (LDUUV) program.
Milestone A approval grants the program the authority to move into the next phase of development, which will allow the Navy to commit resources to mature technology and reduce risks prior to production and fielding.
LDUUV will be capable of being stowed, launched and recovered by multiple-host platforms, including littoral combat ships, Virginia-class submarines and Ohio-class guided-missile submarines. The craft is being developed by the Unmanned Maritime Systems Program Office, which is part of the Program Executive Office Littoral Combat Ships (PEO LCS).
Following the successful Milestone A decision, a draft LDUUV request-for-proposals was released on the Federal Business Opportunities website. An industry day is scheduled for September 14 in Washington, D.C., at which the Unmanned Maritime Systems Program Office will host a presentation and discussion for the industry community on LDUUV requirements.
PEO LCS is affiliated with Naval Sea Systems Command, and provides a single program executive responsible for acquiring and sustaining mission capabilities of the littoral combat ship class, beginning with procurement and ending with fleet employment and sustainment. The combined capability of LCS and LCS mission systems is designed to dominate the littoral battle space and provide U.S. forces with assured access to coastal areas.
ONR to Hold Industry Day on LDUUV Antisubmarine Warfare Packages
20 November 2014 - Tomorrow, the Office of Naval Research will hold a classified industry day in Arlington, Virginia to inform industry concerning research areas desired for the development of an Anti-submarine Warfare Mission Package (ASWMP) for ONR's future Large Displacement Unmanned Undersea Vehicle (LDUUV).
The research intent is to develop, integrate, and test ASW mission packages for a pre-selected surrogate LDUUV platform. The effort will develop technology related to hardware and software simulations, mission autonomy, situational awareness, and undersea sensors then validate these capabilities during at-sea testing.
Metron Awarded Contract for Autonomy Work
22 May 2013 - Officials of the Space and Naval Warfare (SPAWAR) Systems Center Pacific in San Diego, on behalf of Office of Naval Research (ONR), awarded a $7.3 million contract to Metron Inc. of Reston for integration and testing of autonomy and mission planning software for deployment on the Navy's future Large Displacement Unmanned Undersea Vehicle (LDUUV). LDUUV autonomy integration involves software, computer hardware, and sensors. Metron's one-year contract includes two, one-year options which, if exercised, would bring the potential total value of the contract to $18.3 million. The work will be completed in Reston, Virginia and Alameda, California and should be finished by March 2014 with options to extend through March 2016.

Fame, wisdom, love, and power were mine,
And health and youth possessed me;
My goblets blushed from every vine,
And lovely forms caressed me;
I sunned my heart in beauty' eyes,
And felt my soul grow tender;
All earth can give, or mortal prize,
Was mine of regal splendour.
I strive to number o'er what days
Remembrance can discover,
Which all that life or earth displays
Would lure me to live over.
There rose no day, there rolled no hour
Of pleasure unembittered;
And not a trapping decked my power
That galled not while it glittered.
The serpent of the field, by art
And spells, is won from harming;
But that which soils around the heart,
Oh! who hath power of charming?
It will not list to wisdom's lore,
Nor music's voice can lure it;
But there it stings for evermore
The soul that must endure it.
Poems are below...

The Colts have enjoyed one of the more impressive turnarounds in the NFL this season after just two wins during the 2011 campaign. A multitude of factors have played into the resurgence, but near the top has been the play of quarterback Andrew Luck, the first pick in last April's draft.
On a conference call with local media on Tuesday afternoon, Patriots coach Bill Belichick said he didn't spend lot of time studying Luck before the draft because the team wasn't planning to take a quarterback in the first round (as well as the fact that Luck would be long gone by the time the team made its first selection). Nonetheless, some of what Belichick saw on Luck's college film has already shown up during his young NFL career.
"I think the things that we knew about him coming out have certainly played out this season," Belichick said. "Big kid, good arm, can make all the throws, very athletic, good movement in the pocket, handles the offense well. They do a lot of checking and changing plays and you can see him handling the offensive team in those situations, as well as end of the game-type situations where he's got to make good situational plays and decisions. He's done a good job in all of those things."
Defensive coordinator Matt Patricia, who is charged with devising a game plan to stop Luck, has been impressed as well.
"Indianapolis offensively is doing a phenomenal job. You can really tell Andrew Luck is grasping what they're trying to do and obviously coach (Bruce) Arians is doing a great job of getting him in the right situations," Patricia said. "They have some excellent players around him. Obviously Reggie Wayne is one of the best wide receivers in the NFL. He has progressed throughout the year and I would say he's playing at a very high level right now from an offensive standpoint."
Patricia also suggested that Luck isn't playing like a rookie.
"I certainly understand that he has the title of a rookie, but we're well into the season and he's played quite a few games in the NFL," he continued. "He's doing a good job of really handling that offense and running that offense and putting them in good situations to win football games. I think that's what you want to get out of your quarterback.
And while he won't spend time this week preparing to face Luck, Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels has caught some of Luck's film during his preparation for other games, and the 23-year old Stanford graduate has made a favorable impression.
"We've had a chance I think to have the Indianapolis offense in maybe one or two breakdowns this year, and he certainly has done a nice job of adapting to the pro game, and coach (Bruce) Arians has done a great job of putting him in position to be successful," McDaniels said of Luck. "And I think he deserves a lot of credit, I know that's not an easy thing to do with a rookie quarterback or as a rookie quarterback in order to get in there and handle all the different things that you see on a weekly basis in the NFL and be productive and win games.
"I think the most important thing is he's really handled some tough, difficult situations, close games, and played really big in those situations and helped his team to victory," McDaniels continued. "I've got a ton of respect for him."

The first book to explore the origins of the vampire slayer
A fascinating comparison of the original vampire myths to their later literary transformations."
Adam Morton, author of On Evil
From the Balkan Mountains to Beverly Hills, Bruce has mapped the vampire's migration. There's no better guide for the trek."
Jan L. Perkowski, Professor, Slavic Department, University of Virginia, and author of Vampires of the Slavs and The Darkling: A Treatise on Slavic Vampirism
The vampire slayer is our protector, our hero, our Buffy. But how much do we really know about himor her? Very little, it turns out, and Bruce McClelland shows us why: because the vampire slayer is an unsettling figure, almost as disturbing as the evil she is set to destroy. Prepare to be frightened . . . and enlightened."
Corey Robin, author of Fear: The History of a Political Idea
What is unique about this book is that it is the first of its kind to focus on the vampire hunter, rather than the vampire. As such, it makes a significant contribution to the field. This book will appeal to scholars and researchers of folklore, as well as anyone interested in the literature and popular culture of the vampire."
Elizabeth Miller, author of Dracula and A Dracula Handbook
Shades of Van Helsing! Vampirologist extraordinaire Bruce McClelland has managed that rarest of feats: developing a radically new and thoroughly enlightening perspective on a topic of eternal fascination. Ranging from the icons of popular culture to previously overlooked details of Balkan and Slavic history and folk practice, he has rethought the borders of life and death, good and evil, saint and sinner, vampires and their slayers. Excellent scholarship, and a story that never flags."

Washington Nationals vs. Arizona Diamondbacks - 8/3/15 MLB Pick, Odds, and Prediction
Arizona Diamondbacks (50-53) at Washington Nationals (54-49)
MLB Baseball: Monday, August 3, 2015 at 7:05 pm (Nationals Park)
Zack Godley (2-0) (2.25) vs. D Fister (4-6) (4.39)
The Line: Washington Nationals -163 / Arizona Diamondbacks +153 --- Over/Under: 7.5 See the Latest Odds
TV: MASN, FS-Arizona
The Washington Nationals and the Arizona Diamondbacks face off on Monday in Washington for game one of their MLB series.
The Washington Nationals have dropped their last three games and with all of those losses coming at the hands of the Mets they Fallen into a tie for first place in the NL East. The Nationals are 3-7 in their last 10 games, 28-19 at home, and they have outscored their opponents by 28 runs this season. As a team the Nationals are hitting .249 with Bryce Harper hitting .331, Yunel Escobar hitting .314, and Danny Espinosa hitting .249. The Nationals pitching staff has an ERA of 3.58 with the starters at 3.72 and the bullpen at 3.28. For game one against the Diamondbacks the Nationals start Doug Fister who has allowed 96 hits and 39 runs while striking out 42 over 80 innings for a 4-6 record and a 4.39 ERA.
USA TODAY Sports
The Arizona Diamondbacks were riding a hot streak but they have lost their last two games. The Diamondbacks are 7-3 in their last 10 games, 24-26 on the road, and they are nine games back in the National League West. As a team the Diamondbacks are hitting .261 with Paul Goldschmidt hitting .342, A.J. Pollock hitting .305, and Ender Inciarte hitting .290. The Diamondbacks pitching staff has an ERA of 4.07 with the starters at 4.52 and the bullpen at 3.33. For game one against the Nationals the Diamondbacks start Zack Godley who has allowed 11 hits and three runs while striking out 11 over 12 innings for a 2-0 record and a 2.25 ERA.
Washington is 12-5 in their last 17 home games, 2-5 in their last seven games, and 1-4 in Fister's last five starts. Arizona is 6-2 in their last eight games, 3-7 following a loss, and 1-6 in their last seven games against the NL East. Arizona is 5-16 in their last 21 games against Washington.
This should be a low scoring game and with the total set at 8.0 the under is a solid play. My stronger pick is on the winning side and I will post that in the Premium Area as well as on the App.

One of the great masterpieces of modern Latin American fiction, Terra Nostra is concerned with nothing less than the history of Spain and of South America, with the Indian Gods and with Christianity, with the birth, the passion, and the death of civilizations. Fuentes skillfully blends a wide range of literary forms, stories within stories, Mexican and Spanish myth, and famous literary characters in this novel that is both a historical epic and an apocalyptic vision of modern times. Terra Nostra is that most ambitious and rare of creations - a total work of art.

Bowling for immigration
Labuan Travel Blog› entry 81 of 93 › view all entries
Labuan is a forgettable island off the coast of Brunei in north Borneo. While Borneo offers a number of exciting adventure, eco, and even urban-themed trips for the wide-eyed tourist, Labuan is not one of those places. Supposedly the diving is good in the area, but if you saw the shipping traffic (and their pollutants) in the area, you might not want to get wet. The town on the island is actually clean (like many cities on Borneo are...at least compared to the cities on the surrounding islands and the Peninsula) and very pretty with its tropical tree-lined streets. Birds of Paradise flowers, which are usually a garden feature if you have 1 or 2 in Western countries, are chucked down the entire length of the avenues here like you would lay sod.

Good Points
This well told biography is a moving and personal account of an amazing rollercoaster of a life. The poignant photos serve as a reminder, as if the words were not enough, of the ups and the downs of this amazingly talented footballer. Best talks of the state of the game then and now and of the key players and managers at United.
General Comments
George Bests autobiography-talented, courted by the press, revered by his fans, idol of multiple Miss Worlds but eventually broken by alcohol, Best was everything that typified the glamour and excesses of his time. In this book, Best candidly recounts his story. Highs and lows, all is here including the now legendary public humiliation on Wogan in 1990.

This application is a continuation of provisional application 60/051,148 filed on Jun. 27, 1997.
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to systems for determining the quality of a communication network. It is disclosed in the context of a CATV system having a return path from each subscriber's terminal, but is believed to have utility in other applications as well.
2. Background Art
The importance of leakage detection and repair in CATV systems is well documented. See, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,072,899 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,608,428. The invention relates to a continuous ingress monitoring system which performs ingress detection. The system can be configured to detect total, peak RF power in the return path frequency spectrum. This permits detection of the conditions that cause laser clipping in cable systems that include fiber optic legs. The system further can be configured to detect peak ingress power within specific bands. This permits detection of ingress of the frequencies most likely to disrupt transmissions through, for example, the fiber optic return path of a CATV network.
According to the invention, a noise monitoring system comprises a detector circuit coupled to a signal source. The detector circuit provides an output signal indicative of the signal coupled from the source. A peak follower circuit is coupled to the detector circuit for storing a peak detected output signal from the detector circuit.
According to an illustrative embodiment of the invention, the peak follower circuit is coupled to the detector circuit through a filter circuit having a defined frequency range, or passband. The peak follower circuit stores a peak detected output signal within the defined frequency range.
Further according to an illustrative embodiment of the invention, the filter circuit comprises a low pass filter circuit.
Additionally according to an illustrative embodiment, the system further comprises a mixer for mixing the signal from the signal source with a local oscillator frequency to produce a mixed signal, and for supplying the mixed signal to the detector circuit.
According to an illustrative embodiment, the mixed signal is supplied to the detector circuit through a low pass filter.
Additionally according to an illustrative embodiment, the peak follower circuit has a characteristic attack time so that the peak follower circuit stores a peak detected output signal having a defined minimum duration from the detector circuit.
Further according to an illustrative embodiment, the system comprises a controller coupled to the peak follower circuit and configured to receive the amplitude of the stored peak signal.
According to an illustrative embodiment, the controller is configured to receive the amplitude of the stored peak signal periodically.
Additionally according to an illustrative embodiment, the controller is further configured to generate a message if the amplitude of the stored peak signal exceeds a defined threshold.
Further according to an illustrative embodiment, the system comprises a plurality of detectors and a plurality of peak follower circuits. The controller comprises a controller for sequentially interrogating the plurality of peak follower circuits, for receiving the amplitudes of the stored peak signals from the peak follower circuits in response to the sequential interrogation, for deleting the amplitudes of the stored peak signals after their respective amplitudes have been received, and then for repeating this cycle.
According to illustrative embodiments, the signal source is the return path of a two-way CATV system.
The invention may best be understood by referring to the following detailed description and accompanying drawings which illustrate the invention. In the drawings:
FIG. 1 illustrates a partly block and partly schematic circuit diagram of a component of a system constructed according to the invention;
FIG. 2 illustrates a partly block and partly schematic circuit diagram of a component of a system constructed according to the invention;
FIG. 3 illustrates a partly block and partly schematic circuit diagram of a component of a system constructed according to the invention; and,
FIG. 4 illustrates a partly block and partly schematic circuit diagram of a portion of a system constructed according to the invention.
Referring to FIGS. 1, 2 and 4, a system 10 constructed according to the invention can include one or more broadband, peak-holding RF detector circuits 12. Each circuit 12 detects RF at all frequencies within the return path 14 spectrum. The return path of a CATV network is coupled through one or more stages of RF amplification, as appropriate, to an input port of a detector 16. An output port of detector 16 is coupled to an input port of a low pass filter 18 having a corner frequency of, for example, <100 KHz, to limit the video bandwidth. An output port of the low pass filter 18 is coupled to an input port of a peak-following detector 20. The cutoff frequency of the peak-following detector 20 is selected to set the minimum duration of ingress bursts that the circuit 12 is able to detect. The peak-following detector 20 has an attack time appropriate for the shortest impulse duration that the low pass filter 18 admits, and retains the peak detected voltage until that voltage is dumped by a signal from a system controller such as, for example, the system controller 22 illustrated in FIG. 3.
The system 10 can also include one or more narrow band peak-holding RF detector modules 112. Each module 112 also includes a detector element 116, an input port of which is coupled through one or more stages of RF amplification, as appropriate, to, for example, the return path of a CATV network. An output port of detector element 116 is coupled to an input port of a low pass filter 118. An output port of the low pass filter 118 is coupled to an input port of a peak-following detector 120. Before the detector element 116, however, is a variable bandpass circuit 124 which permits only a selected range of return path 14 spectrum frequencies, rather than the full return path 14 frequency spectrum, to pass through to the detector element 116. An input port of the variable bandpass circuit 124 is coupled to receive the entire return path 14 frequency spectrum. The bandpass circuit 124 is made tunable by, for example, a local oscillator 126 and mixer 128, the local oscillator 126 being illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 4 as tunable and common to a number of detector modules 112 for economy and flexibility in manufacture and application. Alternatively, a separate fixed frequency oscillator 126 output can be mixed in each respective mixer 128 with the signal at the input port of the respective variable bandpass circuit 124. In either event, the oscillator 126 output signals can be crystal controlled, digitally synthesized, or generated in any other suitable manner which will provide the desired oscillator 126 output signal frequencies to mix in the respective mixers 128 with the input signals at the input ports of respective variable bandpass circuits 124.
Referring now particularly to FIG. 3, the system 10 further includes a system 10 controller 22. Illustratively, but by no means necessarily, the controller 22 is modular. The controller 22 embodies a multiplex function to sample the held (20, 120) peaks at each detector module 12, 112. The controller 22 further includes a processor/memory combination 130 for logging measurements of the sampled (20, 120) voltages, for comparing the measurements to user-defined limits, and for taking action in the event a measurement exceeds a user defined limit. Such action might include, for example, transmitting a message to a PC for display to a system manager, initiating a page to a system manager, closing a pair of contacts, and/or the like.
The controller 22 and detectors 12, 112 further include circuitry 132 to hold (20, 120) a peak from a respective detector module 12, 112 once the peak has been detected, and to discharge the held (20, 120) peak of a respective detector module 12, 112 once the held (20, 120) peak has been sampled by the controller 22. The various detector modules 12, 112 are then prepared to hold subsequent samples.
The controller 22 further includes circuitry 134 to permit the controller 22 to synchronize its operations to the timing of a polling controller 136, typically a computer, which manages the traffic on the return path side 14 of the CATV network. This permits the ingress monitoring system 10, when it is operating in certain modes, to take measurements during intervals when there is no subscriber traffic in the return path 14.
Illustratively, the controller 22 emulates one of the polled subscriber return signaling terminal devices 138 operating in the frequency band of interest. The controller 22 is assigned a polling address, just as are the subscriber terminal devices 138. This address is entered into the polling computer 136 by the CATV system operator in the same manner as are the addresses of subscriber terminal devices 138. When the polling computer 136 polls the controller 22, the controller 22 discharges all of the detector modules 12, 112, preparing them to receive and hold subsequent samples. Since no subscriber terminal device 138 is transmitting during this interval, noise immunization is practically assured.
Further illustratively, the controller 22 can be synchronized using a digital connection directly to the polling computer 136 if the polling computer 136 is equipped to provide such a connection.
In operation, the system 10 is capable of operating in different modes. The modes can be time-division multiplexed. Each mode is intended to monitor a characteristic of the return path and provide a record of the monitored characteristic. The most straightforward of the modes of operation is the broadband mode. In this mode, a broadband detector circuit 12 is coupled to the RF output port 140 of each return optical fiber receiver. The controller 22 samples the peak held voltages of all of the detectors 12 sequentially by sequentially momentarily closing and then opening each of the data collector switches 141 associated with controller 22, analog-to-digital(A/D) converting the sampled voltages, and then comparing each A/D converted voltage to (a) user-preset limit(s) stored in the controller 22's memory 142. Multiple limits may be desirable. For example, a user may wish to have "caution," or "yellow," as well as "overload," or "red," limits, or different limits or sets of limits, for each channel 144 or different groups of channels 144, and these different combinations are within the contemplation of this disclosure. Scanning of the various detectors 12 in this broadband mode occurs very rapidly, since only a single DC voltage need be measured at each detector 12. Sampling rates on the order of 100 channels per second are desirable and imminently achievable with existing hardware.
Referring to FIG. 4, in another, narrow band, mode of operation, narrow band detector circuits 112 are coupled to the RF output ports 140 of respective return optical fiber receivers 146. The detectors 112 are tuned 126, 128 to the return transmitting frequencies of the service which are to be protected from in-band ingress. Operated in the asynchronous mode, the system 10 measures the peak strengths of signals transmitted by the subscriber devices 138 as they are polled by the service's managing computer 136. Operated in the synchronous mode, the system 10 only performs measurements when the managing computer 136 notifies it that no subscriber device 138 is transmitting. This measurement thus determines the level of in-band ingress affecting particular bands as the detectors 112 tuned to monitor those bands are interrogated.
It should also be recognized that by comparing the asynchronous and synchronous data, the system 10 can calculate the in-band carrier-to-noise ratio. If this function is implemented, another value, carrier-to-(ingress+noise)(C/(I+N)) becomes available as a user-selectable limit against which the detector 12, 112 output port voltages can be compared.
The system 10 thus offers the advantage of speed in its ability to detect ingress bursts microseconds in duration from a relatively inexpensive suite of equipment. Additionally, the system 10 captures transients having durations set only by the detector 12's, 112's low pass filters 18, 118, 124, and hold these measurements pending access to the captured measurements by the system's controller 22.
Further, because the data to be sampled and captured by the controller 22, namely, DC voltage levels, is relatively straightforward, the system 10 speed can be relatively high, on the order of hundreds of test points per second. Consequently, several measurements of the output of a single detector 12, 112 can be obtained in a second or over a few seconds. The data can thus be used to perform statistically meaningful analyses of the output voltages of the various detectors 12, 112.
The principles of operation of the system 10 are straightforward, making demonstration, installation and use relatively easy.
The present system 10 is relatively inexpensive. Further, since a single controller 22 operates several detector circuits 12, 112, and since the detector circuits 12, 112 themselves are relatively inexpensive, the basic system 10 is flexible enough to use with a broad range of sizes of CATV systems.

Experienced Teachers Don't Make A Difference
January 26, 2000
In the heavily unionized ranks of teachers, seniority means fatter paychecks. But a study from the Hudson Institute and the Education Intelligence Agency reveals that students having teachers with additional years of experience do not, for the most part, benefit from that additional expertise.
- In Massachusetts, students in grades four and eight scored about the same on reading and math tests regardless of their teachers' years on the job.
- Students in Texas and California did appear to do better under the tutelage of teachers with 11 to 24 years of experience -- but those gains stalled out among students taught by teachers with even more years in classrooms.
- A majority of states, including Florida and Virginia, showed a subsequent decline in effectiveness for teachers with more than 25 years' experience.
- In Georgia, inexperienced teachers performed better than their oldest colleagues.
Nor do advanced degrees seem to offer much improvement. In South Carolina and Wyoming, students tested worse on average if their teachers had masters' degrees.
Yet seniority and degrees are virtually the only things for which we increase teacher pay.

The proposal would turn UK law on its head. In Britain a driver involved in an accident with a bicycle is presumed innocent and a cyclist must prove negligence in order to win compensation.
The Royal Automobile Club says the proposal could add $150 a year to every driver's insurance premium, and the motor insurance industry has launched a lobbying campaign to defeat it.
The British Government has promised to do its best to persuade its European partners to reject the proposal.
The fifth motor insurance directive, as it is labelled by the Brussels bureaucracy, was floated in June but it is only now that the car lobby and others have digested its implications. It will have to be approved by the European Parliament and member-state governments, though not unanimously, which means that British opposition could be ignored.
The commission says the rationale is to harmonise motor insurance across the EU and to provide better protection for pedestrians and cyclists.
Cycling and road safety groups have given the move a warm welcome, but they doubt that motorists would be automatically liable to pay compensation.
"This new law will mean that the driver will have to prove that he/she was not at fault, whereas at the moment the onus is on the victim to prove negligence. That is the big difference," said the national secretary of the traffic accident charity Roadpeace, Brigitte Chaudhry.

Tech 50800: Champion/Define Presentation
The aim of this process is to fix a lack of communication that has a negative impact on the company management and also reducing the profit by %15. The company has three different locations shipping offices in three different states. The policy of the company on the orders is to be shared with all three location to ensure that all the orders being shipped and received on time. It's easy to think separately of getting the work done, but it have been realized by the managers that there was great power of getting all the orders ready on time when it's communicated perfectly.
By improving the communication skills, management, human resource, sales, and chain supply resources, communication is clearly the grease that makes a good organization great, and it will positively affects the company's outcomes.
Sycamore Companies receiving orders from north Africa, middle ease, and Saudi Arabia on certain type of cars that need to be collected and shipped on time. Currently the company has three different location that receiving orders, each location is taking care of their order, looking, collecting and shipping which most of the time causing delays and cancelations instead of sharing the orders with all three offices to make the orders be collected and shipped on time.
The problem impacts the organization in the following ways:
Improving communication skills throughout the locations of the company, and make the customers more satisfied by making their orders ready and shipped on time with good price to avoid the cancelations and keep customers.
The processing starts immediately the orders are placed.
The orders information began send to all offices to start work on the orders
and make the shipments ready in one place.
By improving the communication skills, it will help
employees and managers from highly efficient team, and will
enable the employees and managers to trust each other and
management. Effective communication will reduce
unnecessary competition within departments and helps
employee work together harmoniously.
Understanding the benefits of effective communication helps
the company place a focus on developing a workforce that is
able to communicate within the company and with
customers, vendors and international business partners.
Effective communication causes productivity to increase,
to decrease errors and operations to run smoother.

Pale Horse. You just don't get it. For your information this scout was attempting to discuss in detail HIS "dudes he smashed" as you so colorfully have put it. I am not sure where you participate in scouting at but I have never heard or witnessed any scouts speaking or heard any other scouts saying they have heard or discussed their activity. So no you are wrong when you say it isn't a gay or straight issue. In this case, it was a gay issue. This is my son we are talking about and when my son says he is not comfortable around this type of behavior, I will remove my son from that situation. It has nothing to do with not being accepting or tolerant. This is in the best interest of my son and family. Thank you!
Some 30+ years ago, when I was a scout youth, and the first person in our patrol/circle of friends managed to "go all the way" with his girlfriend ... Just like that scene in Grease, we were all "tell me more, tell me more". It is unrealistic for us to expect that youth of that age won't (want to) talk about it, or that they will not be curious about it if others are talking. It is a momentary lapse in "A Scout is Clean", but it is an age (but not scouting) appropriate discussion.
It would also be unrealistic to expect that a gay youth member would also not be similarly inclined to "brag" about their conquests.
While a gay youth might be more inclined to keep quite about such things, it would be more out of a sense of peer pressure and non acceptance. Which is the opposite of why a straight youth who might be inclined to keep such things between himself and his girlfriend, might be induced to join the locker room conversations.
I do not take a position of if you think such behavior is right or wrong - in either case it is not appropriate for a scouting venue.
As an Adult leader, if I were aware of or overhead the discussion, in either case - because to do otherwise would be unfair - would be to remind the youth such discussions are inappropriate at a Scout function. And while I would probably not extend this to a level of consequences, if I did in one case, I would also have to do so in the other case.
As said, it [the oversharing discussion] is not (should not be) a gay or straight issue; it is one of what is appropriate at a Scouting function and what is not.
