Because of its rocket work, Kennedy has the infrastructure and experience necessary to handle hydrogen safely.
Sounding rocket mission has finest mirrors ever madeJuly 9, 2012 6:28 am | News | Comments
On July 11, NASA scientists will launch into space the highest resolution solar telescope ever to observe the solar corona. Often one improves telescope resolution simply by building bigger mirrors, but this is not possible when constraining a telescope to the size of a sounding rocket, so the High Resolution Coronal Imager (Hi-C) orbiter has a 9.5-inch with a variance of less than two atoms.
Researchers create 'MRI' of the sun's interior motionsJuly 9, 2012 5:51 am | News | Comments
A team of scientists has created an "MRI" of the sun's interior plasma motions, shedding light on how it transfers heat from its deep interior to its surface. The result upends our understanding of how heat is transported outwards by the sun and challenges existing explanations of the formation of sunspots and magnetic field generation.
Life's molecules could lie within reach of Mars Curiosity roverJuly 6, 2012 8:34 am | News | Comments
Stick a shovel in the ground and scoop. That's about how deep scientists need to go in order to find evidence for ancient life on Mars, if there is any to be found, a new study suggests. That's within reach of Curiosity, the Mars Science Laboratory rover expected to land on the Red Planet next month.

Cassini finds probable ocean below Titan's surfaceJune 28, 2012 10:50 am | News | Comments
Data from NASA's Cassini spacecraft have revealed Saturn's moon Titan likely harbors a layer of liquid water under its ice shell. Researchers saw a large amount of squeezing and stretching as the moon orbited Saturn. They deduced that if Titan were composed entirely of stiff rock, the gravitational attraction of Saturn would cause bulges, or solid "tides," on the moon only 3 ft in height. Spacecraft data show Saturn creates solid tides approximately 30 ft in height, which suggests Titan is not made entirely of solid rocky material.
Cassini shows why jet streams cross-cut SaturnJune 25, 2012 1:38 pm | News | Comments
Turbulent jet streams, regions where winds blow faster than in other places, churn east and west across Saturn. Scientists have been trying to understand for years the mechanism that drives these wavy structures in Saturn's atmosphere. Recent images from NASA's Cassini spacecraft has revealed the source from which the jets derive their energy.

Researchers calculate size of particles in Martian clouds of CO2 snowJune 19, 2012 3:44 am | by Jennifer Chu, MIT News Office | News | Comments
In the dead of a Martian winter, clouds of snow blanket the Red Planet's poles—but unlike our water-based snow, the particles on Mars are frozen crystals of carbon dioxide. Most of the Martian atmosphere is composed of carbon dioxide, and in the winter, the poles get so cold—cold enough to freeze alcohol—that the gas condenses, forming tiny particles of snow. Now researchers have calculated the size of snow particles in clouds at both Martian poles from data gathered by orbiting spacecraft.
NASA's Fermi detects the highest-energy light from a solar flareJune 11, 2012 10:26 pm | News | Comments
During a powerful solar blast on March 7, the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope detected the highest-energy light ever associated with an eruption on the sun. The flare produced such an outpouring of gamma rays—a form of light with even greater energy than X-rays—that the sun briefly became the brightest object in the gamma-ray sky.
Tiny planet-finding mirrors borrow from Webb Telescope playbookMay 25, 2012 5:25 am | by Lori Keesey | News | Comments
NASA's next flagship mission, the James Webb Space Telescope, will carry the largest primary mirror ever deployed in space. Researchers has borrowed a page from its segmented mirror design to create a similar example just a half-inch in diameter. Strangely, the tiny mirror may one day become the standard for future space telescopes.
Cassini reveals details about charged nanograinsMay 22, 2012 8:59 am | News | Comments
In a new study, researchers describe what they found in data from Cassini: a new class of space particles—submicroscopic nanograins of electrically charged dust. Such particles are believed to exist throughout the universe, and this marks the first time researchers have measured and analyzed them.
Newfound exoplanet may turn to dustMay 18, 2012 3:30 am | by Jennifer Chu, MIT News Office | News | Comments
Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, NASA, and elsewhere have detected a possible planet, some 1,500 light years away, that appears to be evaporating under the blistering heat of its parent star. The scientists infer that a long tail of debris is following the planet, and that this tail may tell the story of the planet's disintegration.
Studying the internal mechanisms of shape-memory alloysMay 9, 2012 6:29 am | News | Comments
Shape-memory alloys are an engineer's dream, able to shape-shift spontaneously to accommodate changing operating conditions. A research team from NASA and the University of Central Florida is studying the internal mechanisms of these real-life "transformers" at the Spallation Neutron Source at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, with an eye toward increasing their use in everyday scenarios.
First light from a super-Earth spottedMay 9, 2012 5:53 am | by Jennifer Chu, MIT News Office | News | Comments
Scientists on a planetary-heat-seeking mission have detected the first infrared light from a super-Earth—in this case, a planet some 40 light-years away. And according to their calculations, 55 Cancri e, a planet just over twice the size of Earth, is throwing off some serious heat.

Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter brings "Earthrise" to everyoneApril 20, 2012 7:20 am | News | Comments
On December 24, 1968, the astronauts aboard Apollo 8 were conducting an extensive photographic survey of the moon's surface. When they paused to take a navigation sighting, they were shocked to see the Earth "rising" above the lunar surface. Using modern imagery, NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter has recreated the moment, shortly before the first real photograph was taken.

Discovery sheds new light on wandering continentsMarch 22, 2012 1:44 pm | by Bill Steigerwald | News | Comments
According to NASA scientist Dr. Nicholas Schmerr, a layer of partially molten rock about 22 to 75 miles underground can't be the only mechanism that allows continents to gradually shift their position over millions of years. He contends that because his research has revealed this melt-rich layer to be spotty, another cause must exist for the movement of plates over the mantle.

"Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again [brought back] the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, saying: I have sinned, in that I have betrayed the innocent blood."
Note.—The confession of the despairing traitor—Ἥμαρτον παραδοὺς αἷμα ἀθῶον—may be more concisely and pointedly translated, "I sinned in betraying innocent blood." In connection with the testimony of Pilate, and that of the Sanhedrin, which could prefer no other 261charge against Jesus than that he had called himself the Messiah, this confession amounts to a complete vindication of the innocence of Jesus. If Judas, from three years' familiar intercourse, had known any thing in the least degree affecting the moral purity of his Master, he would have eagerly availed himself of it for his self-justification, and peace of conscience. Compare the comments in Lange's "Matthew," Am. ed., p. 501 ff.

Series 8's winning streak continues with a Frank Cottrell Boyce-penned episode that has a great deal to say...
In The Forest Of The Night brings to an end a run of four Doctor Who series 8 episodes from writers who'd never penned an adventure for the show before before. On the basis of all four stories they came up with, every one of them should be warmly welcomed back in the future.
This latest comes from Frank Cottrell Boyce, whose extensive and hugely impressive writing career to date has taken him from Coronation Street and the wonderful, wonderful Millions, through to Welcome To Sarajevo and Code 46. And it would be fair to say that by the time he sat down to write In The Forest Of The Night, he had plenty of things he wanted to say. To his credit, he's squeezed a great many of them into a 45 minute Doctor Who adventure. »

Universal Pictures on board film adaptation of classic British series; cast to include Billy Nighy, Catherine Zeta Jones and Toby Jones
The cast of a long-rumoured film based on classic British comedy series Dad's Army has been revealed.
Toby Jones, best known for roles in The Hunger Games and Harry Potter franchises, will take the leading role of Captain Mainwaring, a stiff-upper-lipped veteran who oversees the Home Guard in a small village toward the end of the Second World War.
His right-hand man, Wilson, will be played by Bill Nighy, known to international audiences for his roles in The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel and Love Actually.
Both were previously rumoured to be attached to the project, an adaptation of a BBC comedy series than ran from 1968-77, but Catherine Zeta Jones is newly attached to the film as journalist Rose Winters.
The all-star British cast will also include Tom Courtenay as Corporal Jones, Harry Potter »

All but one of the writing slots for Doctor Who series eight have already been announced, with Steven Moffat joined by Phil Ford, Mark Gatiss, Steve Thompson, Gareth Roberts, Peter Harness and Jamie Mathieson for the new run. It now looks as though the last remaining place - for episode ten in the series - has gone to a particularly interesting writer: Frank Cottrell Boyce.
The Liverpool Echo reports that native son Boyce (24 Hour Party People, Tristram Shandy: A Cock And Bull Story, The Railway Man) has provided a script for series eight. The screenwriter is quoted as saying "It's like joining a family. It's a great thing to be involved with. I grew up loving Doctor Who, and my teenage son was a big fan of it too. »

I noticed the Rev Slider has a fixed height (assuming the browser window is wide enough to display the full width of the site), and since images are uploaded as background, the image height does not determine the height of the slider. Anyone knows how to customize the height of the Rev Slider?

This is a really good soup! I couldn't understand why my green beans took 40 minutes to cook until I realized I cut them in quarters, just not lengthwise! Hence the name string bean of course :) It was still great though and made a perfect lunch on a cold snowy day. Thanks!

It was descending fast, so it must have come down on the high fields behind the chateau.

The stage is set
So India is all set to witness the biggest-ever election. With 81 crore voters and 11 million personnel conducting the polls at 9.36 lakh polling stations using 1.4 million EVMs, the Indian election is considered the biggest such event in the world. This is a management event that expects zero error and 100 per cent success. For the Election Commission, a 60 per cent successful election, or even 80 or 90 per cent success, is not an option.
The EC is now a very experienced institution, with a well-oiled machinery. Its foremost concern every time is, of course, a peaceful poll. The safety of voters, of polling staff and even of security forces is always an overriding concern. We cannot afford to lose any lives. The muscle power of the proverbial bahubali or strongman is now history. Vulnerability mapping, deployment of paramilitary forces and the 24×7 video watch on them ensures that they behave.
The other ongoing issue concerns the Model Code of Conduct (MCC). This is the most dreaded weapon in the hands of the EC. Every leader worth his salt shudders even at the thought of receiving a model code notice. Many citizens, however, feel disappointed that all that the EC does against defaulters is issue warnings, reprimands, condemnation or censure. They probably expect drastic action like the cancellation of elections, derecognition of the political party concerned or even the registration of criminal cases. They go to the extent of calling the EC toothless. This perception is absolutely flawed. The MCC's moral authority is extremely high. The fact that even the issue of a notice hits the headlines and becomes a subject of editorial comment for days on end is a major punishment for the defaulting politician, who cannot afford to lose even 1 per cent of public support. Have you seen any hate speech in the last few years? Personal attacks have become a rare occurrence. The abuse of government facilities by the ruling party has been reduced to zero.
There have also been new developments in the last few years. The impact of these will be seen in the forthcoming elections for the first time.
Foremost among them is an unprecedented awakening among the youth and women in the wake of the creation of a voter education division in the EC. Its programme, SVEEP (systematic voters' education and electoral participation), has metamorphosed voter apathy into a participation revolution. Four years ago, only 10 to 12 per cent of young voters who were 18-19 years old were enrolled. Now, the figure has gone up by …continued »

Apparatus for recording characters on a photographic record medium including spaced feed and takeup reels for carrying a roll of the medium. A support such as a cylinder is disposed between the reels supports the record medium. A carriage is controllably movable opposite the support and in a direction transverse to the direction of record medium movement. A recording head on the carriage has a radiation emitter device for emitting intensity modulated radiation toward the cylindrical support along a scan line which makes an angle with the direction of the transverse movement.
1. Indicia recording apparatus comprising: a supply reel for storing a roll of record medium; a takeup reel for accumulating record medium removed from said feed reel; a supporting means intermediate said supply and takeup reels, for supporting a portion of the record medium, a carriage means controllably and repeatedly movable opposite said supporting means and in a direction transverse to the travel of the record medium, and a recording head on said carriage means, said recording head comprising radiation emitting means for emitting intensity modulated radiation toward said supporting means along a plurality of equilength scan lines, each of said scan lines being in a different plane intersecting said supporting means whereby during a single traverse of said carriage means a transverse band of the record medium is scanned.
2. The indicia recording apparatus of claim 1 wherein said radiation emitting means is at least one linear array of light emitting devices.
3. The indicia recording apparatus of claim 2 further including means for focusing the light from said light emitting devices onto a surface which substantially conforms to a portion of the surface of said supporting means.
4. The indicia recording apparatus of claim 1 wherein said carriage means comprises drive support means, a lead screw means supported by said drive support means along an axis parallel to the axis of said supporting means and carrying said recording head, and motor means connected to said lead screw means whereby said recording head can be driven opposite the surface of the record medium.
5. The indicia recording apparatus of claim 1 further comprising a record medium, said record medium being a layer of xerographic material.
6. The indicia recording apparatus of claim 1 further comprising a record medium, said record medium being a photographic film.
7. The indicia recording apparatus of claim 1 wherein said record medium is a roll of photographic film.
8. The indicia recording apparatus of claim 7 wherein each of said reels is in a cassette means.
9. The indicia recording apparatus of claim 1 wherein said radiation emitting means comprises a cathode-ray tube means.
10. The indicia recording apparatus of claim 9 wherein said cathode-ray tube means performs a repetitive single line scan.
11. The indicia recording apparatus of claim 1 wherein said radiation emitting means comprises laser means remote from said carriage means and deflecting means on said carriage means for deflecting the radiation from said laser means toward the surface of said supporting means.
12. Indicia recording apparatus comprising: a source of a record medium; an accepting means for accepting record medium removed from said source; a supporting means intermediate said source and said accepting means, for supporting a portion of the record medium, a carriage means controllably and repeatedly movable opposite said supporting means and in a direction transverse to the travel of the record medium, and a recording head on said carriage means, said recording head comprising radiation emitting means for emitting intensity modulated radiation toward said supporting means along a plurality of equilength scan lines, each of said scan lines being in a different plane intersecting said supporting means whereby during a single traverse of said carriage means a transverse band of the record medium is scanned.
This application is a continuation of application Ser. No. 173,966 filed July 31, 1980 and now U.S. Pat. No. 4,310,226.
This invention pertains to indicia recording apparatus and more particularly to such apparatus which records indicia on a photo-sensitive record medium through the agency of a light emitting means.
A very common kind of non-impact recording device utilizes photo-techniques wherein a light source is used to record on a photo-sensitive surface whether it be a photographic film or a xerographic medium. One common device is a photo-typesetter or pattern generator. Generally such devices employ a cathode ray tube which is raster scanned and intensity modulated to produce the patterns of light that are exposed to a photographic film. While such devices have performed admirably they have the limitation of being able to record on only a relatively narrow width of film. Generally such devices can "print" on widths of up to about 11 or 12 inches utilizing fixed optical techniques. There have been proposals to increase the recording width by using complex optical systems with pluralities of fixed and moving mirrors as well as prisms to obtain the width. Such systems are shown in my U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,562,718 and 3,621,137. While such systems work in theory they are difficult to fine tune to the point where the separate projections abut. In order to solve that problem my U.S. Pat. No. 3,692,935 utilizes a cylindrical support medium for the record medium. The support medium is rotated while a cathode ray tube is focused on its surface. In order to obtain line-by-line recording the entire support medium is axially moved after the recording of each line. This solution presents several problems. First of all, the mechanical movement of the support medium is quite complex since the structure itself is massive. In addition continuous feeds of a whole roll of film are not possible since the drum will only support a single sheet of film.
It is a general object of the invention to provide improved indicia recording apparatus which while being extremely simple can record on unusually large widths of a record medium. Briefly, the invention contemplates indicia recording apparatus which includes a supply reel for storing a roll of record medium, a takeup reel for accumulating record medium removed from the supply reel and a supporting means intermediate the reels for supporting the record medium. A carriage means which is controllably movable opposite the supporting means in a direction transverse to the path of travel of the record medium carries a recording head having means for emitting intensity-modulated radiation toward the supporting means along a plurality of equilength scan lines which are in planes intersecting the supporting means.
Other objects, features and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawing which shows the presently preferred embodiment of the invention. In the drawing:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the indicia recording apparatus in accordance with the invention;
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view through the line 2--2 of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a top view of another embodiment of the recording apparatus of FIG. 1;
FIG. 4 is a top view of another embodiment of the recording apparatus of FIG. 1; and
FIG. 5 is a side view of one of the light emitting elements of the apparatus of FIG. 1.
The indicia recording apparatus according to the invention is embodied in FIGS. 1 and 2 as a photo-typesetter 10. The photo-typesetter includes a cylindrical supporting means in the form of vacuum cylinder 12 for a record medium 18 and a carriage means 14 upon which rides a recording head 16. A record medium 18 is mounted on a supply roll 24 within a cassette 26 and is taken up on a take-up roll 20 within another cassette (not shown). The record medium exits the cassette 22 and passes through a supply loop forming means. The supply loop forming means includes the opposed idle roller 28 and the controllably driven roller 30, and the self-centering idle roller 32 opposite the idle roller 34. Associated with the loop-forming means is a light emitter 36 and a light sensor 38.
When the film leaves the vacuum cylinder 12 it moves over a flat film support 40 to a take-up loop forming means. The take-up loop forming means includes the self-centerline roller 42 which is driven by motor 42A to rotate at a constant high speed so that the film will slip. The remainder of the take-up loop forming means includes the idling roller 44 opposite a clutch driven roller 46 driven by motor 46A which supplies tension for wrapping the film onto the take-up reel 24. Included with the take-up loop forming means is a loop sensor again in the form of a light emitter 48 and a light sensor 50.
The carriage means 14 includes a support base 52 from which extends the upright members 54 and 56. The upright members are spaced sufficiently to span the width of the vacuum cylinder 12. Extending between the support members 54 and 56 are a lead screw 58 and a rail 60. Disposed about the rail 60 is a sleeve 62 which carries the recording head 16. Extending from the recording head 16 is a bracket carrying a threaded sleeve 64. Thus, as the lead screw rotates the recording head is transversely driven opposite the record medium or film 18. Connected to the lead screw is a rotary shaft encoder 70 of conventional design which emits a pulse for each predetermined fractional rotation of the shaft. The shaft is driven by the stepping motor 72.
Similarly, the vacuum cylinder 12 is driven by the stepping motor 74 and take-up roller 20 is driven by the stepping motor 78. The stepping of these motors is controlled by the control unit 80. In addition, the control unit 80 supplies the indicia for the recording by the recording head 16.
Since the control unit 80 does not constitute part of the invention it will not be described in detail. Only its overall operation will be discussed. In general, the control unit 80 first emits a signal to the stepping motor 74 to cause it to rotate sufficiently so that a new line of film is available for the record head. Then, assuming that the recording head 16 is at one end of the travel, it is then driven towards the opposite end. During this time, signals are fed to the recording head 16 from the control unit 80. These signals energize light sources therein to expose the opposed area of film. At the end of the line the control unit 80 then energizes the stepping motor 74 to drive the film to make available a new line for exposure. Either the recording head 16 is driven back to the opposite side of the medium before recording begins again or else the recording can begin in the opposite direction. In this way the recording is performed.
However, at the same time and not necessarily synchronous therewith film is supplied to the supply loop and taken out of the take-up loop. In particular, the roller 30 has its motor 30A energized whenever the light sensor 38 can "see" the light emitter 36. During that time the sensor 38 sends back a signal to the control unit 80 which causes the motor 30A to rotate and pull film from the supply cassette. As soon as the loop is long enough to block the light path between the emitter 36 and the sensor 38 the motor 76 is stopped. It should be noted that the emitter 36 and the sensor 38 are positioned close to the edge of the film which normally is not recorded on.
Normally the take-up roller 20 is at rest. However, whenever the light sensor 50 does not see light from the light emitter 48 it sends a signal back to the control unit 80 which then causes the stepping motor 78 to rotate and draw film into the cassette. This rotation is continuous until light is sensed by the sensor 50 indicating that the take-up loop is less than a given length. At that time take-up stops. The take-up and supply loops act as buffers to provide minimum inertia load of the film to the vacuum roller 12.
The vacuum roller 12 (FIG. 2) is basically a hollow cylinder within which is fixed a semi-circular support cylinder 102. This configuration provides a vacuum chamber 104 within the vacuum cylinder 12. The surface of the vacuum cylinder 12 is provided with channels, a typical channel being channel 106. These channels communicate via passageways such as 108 to the vacuum region in the cylinder. Vacuum is applied by means of the passageway 110 connected via tubing, to a vacuum pump (not shown).
One embodiment of the recording head 16 is seen in FIGS. 1 and 2. The recording head is built up from a plurality of light emitting elements. In particular, each element includes a light source preferably a light emitting diode 200 whose output end is positioned opposite the arcuate surface of a pie-shaped laminar lens 202 and aimed along a radius vector thereof. The output end of the lens 202 is positioned opposite the surface of cylinder 102. The lens is essentially planar and is at right angles to the vacuum cylinder 12 of FIG. 1. However, it may be preferable that the plane make an oblique angle therewith. In such case the distance between "spots" along the axis is then lessened by the cosine of the angle. More importantly, it has been found that to enhance the focusing of the light onto the record medium the end 204 of lens 202 lies along an arc of a circle which conforms with the curvature of the roller 12. As seen in FIG. 2, the arc is matingly opposite and slightly spaced from the surface of the cylinder 12. If there is a problem with "run out" of the cylinder 12 it is desirable to back off the end of the arcuate demarcation and interpose a lens system. The light emitting diodes 200a to 200q are arranged in a linear array which is preferably concave facing the input end of lens 202. If it is too difficult to produce an arc shaped substrate, then the array can be a set of groups of diodes in short rectilinear pieces with the pieces lined up polygonally to approximate an arc.
In FIG. 3 there is shown the preferred embodiment of the recording head 16 which includes the focussing lens 100, the mirror 102 and the acousto-optic deflector 104, acting as a vertical plane deflector, mounted on bearing 64, and the acousto-optic moudulator 108, acting as an intensity modulator, and the laser 110 of the helium-neon type mounted remotely from the carriage 64. In operation, a continuous beam of light is emitted from laser 110, via modulator 108, to deflector 104. Signals on line IC from control unit 80 turn the beam on and off in accordance with the stroke to be recorded. The intensity modulated light passes through deflector 104 and is focused by means of lens 100 and mirror 102 onto the record medium 18 supported by cylinder 12. Control unit 80 generally feeds a saw tooth signal via line SC to the modulation input of deflector 104. If one assumes for the minute that the beam passing out of modulator 108 is a continuous one, then the action of deflector 104 is to write an arc defined by the intersection of a plane perpendicular to the axis of cylinder 12 with the surface of the cylinder at the point P. The length of the arc is a function of deflection of the beam by deflector 104. Thus single line scans which are intensity modulated are written on medium 18 to form the strokes of a character.
The laser 110 is a conventional helium-neon laser. With other types of lasers it is possible to mount the laser and modulator 108 directly on the carriage. It is also possible for certain low data rates to use deflector 104 for both the intensity modulation and the scanning deflection. A suitable device for both functions separately or combined is Model 1205 Acousto-Optic Modulator manufactured by ISOMET of Springfield, Va. 22151.
In FIG. 4 there is shown a further embodiment of the recording head 16 utilizing the cathode-ray tube 120 and the focusing lens 122 mounted on bearing 64. Control unit 80 emits a sawtooth deflection signal via line SC to the vertical deflection elements of tube 120 for causing a repetitive single line sweep as represented by line SW. This sweep is intensity modulated by signals from control unit 80, via a line IC, to the intensity output of the tube 120.
In FIG. 5 there is shown an alternate embodiment of the diode-lens combination of FIG. 2. In this embodiment the lens is replaced by a plurality of optical fibre elements, each element being associated with one diode. As shown in FIG. 5 a typical element 202' is tapered with its input end opposite the diode 200' and is narrower outpute end 204' opposite the cylinder 12.
Although the indicia recording apparatus has been shown utilizing photographic film the fundamental concept of the invention can also be used for xerographic devices. In such case the film transport mechanisms are deleted and the vacuum cylinder 12 is replaced by a roller having a smooth surface covered with a xerographic material. The remainder of such a device would then include the source of toner and the paper drive mechanisms for making the copies. The embodiment of FIG. 3 is eminently suited for such an application.
While only a limited number of the embodiments of the invention have been shown and described in detail there will now be obvious to those skilled in the art many modifications and variations satisfying many or all of the objects of the invention without departing from the spirit thereof as defined by the appended claims. In particular, although the supporting means is shown as a cylinder, it could equally be a flat planar bed.

Claire Danes on being in her 30s: I feel less apologetic about who I am
By Chris Gardner
Claire Danes plays bipolar CIA agent Carrie Mathison on "Homeland," but in real life she doesn't share any of her character's manic tendencies. Actually, Claire comes across more grounded than the bulk of her Hollywood counterparts. The 34-year-old covers the January issue of Glamour, dishing to the mag about feminism, disabilities and why her husband's good looks can be so jarring.
RELATED: Check out more photos of Claire Danes in Glamour
On what she's like in her 30s:
"Well, not too different. I'm happier in my 30s. I feel clearer about who I am and less apologetic about it, and more accepting of my limitations and also more aware of the ways in which I'm capable. I was always looking forward to this time because people talk about it in very romantic terms. And I think it's true. Gravity hasn't had too profound of an effect, and you're a little less emotionally gangly. The 20s are a deceptively challenging-slash-painful time. I'm just glad to be out of that phase."

Having bummed around London's swanky underbelly for a couple years now, the glossy electro pop quartet known ambiguously as Temposhark has earned a notable fan base in the UK (they say Björk likes 'em, but I'm incredulous to that fact). With a appearance at 2007's SXSW and their debut album on North American soil looming, they've thrown their hat into the ring to see if they're more than an idiosyncratic English fancy. And sure, there are some really catchy little ditties here, which place the songwriting emphasis on quirky turns of phrase and bubbly supporting melodies. Four-four beats abound, layered in sexed up synth squeals, raunchy basslines, and the odd piece of cheeseball guitar.
They aren't Goldfrapp, though, and the lyrics of Banksy collaborator Robert Diament are more on the whiny emo side of things than seductively sultry. As such, when they tone down the BPM and become more contemplative, it's much more tolerable musically, if not spiritually. The highly synth-phonic intro "Don't Mess with Me," which is gracefully accented by the violin of Sophie Soloman, sets you up to expect something with a lot more depth and variety. Yet, that song's line "I've come, it's been fun / But won't you please disappear / Something tells me you can't further my career" pretty much destroys any credit I'd ever bestow upon them as artists. "Battleships" benefits greatly from a stuttering beat allowed the room to breathe, but it's hard to take lyrics about a child's board game seriously. Maybe Operation or Mouse Trap could support an entire song, but not Battleship. It's all so juvenile. With Temposhark's poetical capacity at the level of an elementary school dropout, it looks like another day of struggle for emotronica.

SBD/21/Sponsorships Advertising Marketing
Published February 21, 1995
While Texaco will again sponsor fan ballots for the MLB All- Star Game, the company will not actively participate in pushing the vote. Last year, Texaco used its service stations as an outlet for fans to vote. This year, fan voting will strictly be conducted in the ballparks. AP's Skip Wollenberg writes, "Texaco faces a dilemma shared by dozens of companies that rely on major league baseball games as a way to advertise their products and services." Companies like Texaco, a charter sponsor of The Baseball Network, have a while before deciding on their strategy, because the first TBN broadcast is not until the All-Star Game. But other advertisers must decide more quickly. ESPN Exec VP Ed Durso, whose network carries its first game April 2: "I'd be less than candid to say demand was as robust as we had hoped it would be. Some are directing their money elsewhere, but we continue to press ahead under what is a more difficult situation." But Tribune Broadcasting Exec VP Dennis FitzSimons said, "We have been pleasantly surprised by the willingness of our sponsors to stay with us." The Tribune Co. also owns the Cubs (ATLANTA CONSTITUTION, 2/20).
