G17, 18 and 19 is modal. On machine start up, it is in the G17 mode; as well as if you were to reset the program. How about submitting the code for me to look at, if you are still having the issue.
I have a Torq-Cut 22 with DX-32 controller. I am having issues with plane designation in my programs and I am not sure it is with the CAM software I am using to program with or the machine controller. When machine performs a CW arc move in the XZ plane, machine does fine because line command is G18G02... The next CW arc move, which is supposed to be in that same XZ plane, is done in the XY plane instead. That command line only has G02... called out though. Here's my question: is G18 and G19 Modal on the DX-32 controller? If yes, then it seems I have a problem with my controller. If no, then it must have something to do with the post processor with the CAM software not inputing G18 on each line with an arc move in the XZ plane.
G17, 18 and 19 is modal. On machine start up, it is in the G17 mode; as well as if you were to reset the program. How about submitting the code for me to look at, if you are still having the issue.
Hey Roadrunner,
Thanks for the reply. Hardinge called me a few minutes ago and told me that G17, G18, and G19 are all non-modal on the DX-32 controller. They said if I wanted to do arc moves on any line of code that I would have to insert G17, G18, or G19 and then either G02 or G03.
I attached the code if you want to look at it. Sequence N3950 is where it begins. This line has G18 called followed by G02. Then later on line N3958, it calls the CW interpolation move but does not call G18 first. What confuses me is Hardinge says G17, G18, and G19 are all non-Modal but they must mean G18, and G19 are non-modal because on line N3958, it moves in an arc on the XY plane, which is G17, instead of the XZ plane.
I will look at my documents to see what gives.
I am mobile today and tomorrow, but can look on Wednesday. Remind me.
Here is some notes we had for teaching classes.
XZ plane circular interpolation
G18G2X__Z__I__K__ or G18G3X__Z__I__K__
where X__Z__ is the endpoint of the arc and I__K__ is the absolute XZ arc center
YZ plane circular interpolation
G19G2Y__Z__J__K__ or G19G3Y__Z__J__K__
where Y__Z__ is the endpoint of the arc and J__K__ is the absolute YZ arc center
The G18 and G19 codes are modal and only need to be in the first line of a series of moves. It is good practice to always return the system to G17 as soon as all the G18 or G19 section is completed.
A ball endmill is usually used to create XZ or YZ arcs. With careful planning a bull nose endmill can create an XZ or YZ arc by applying an offset to the X or Y axis. However, this is limited to one quadrant of motion.
Cutter compensation does not apply to the G18 or G19 planes.
Here is a blurb from the programming manual.
Circular interpolation is effective in the XY, YZ or ZX planes by preparatory codes as follows:
G17 = XY Plane
G18 = ZX Plane
G19 = YZ Plane
1. G18 or G19, if used, must be programmed before the direction of circular interpolation.
2. The feedrate word F__ defines the constant vector velocity required of the tool. Feedrate is modal and may have
been defined in an earlier block of data.
3. Neither Polar Coordinates nor Cutter Compensation may be used in the XZ (G18) or YZ(G19) planes.
The clockwise and counterclockwise directions for the XY, ZX, YZ planes are shown in Figure 3-4. (Always look in the
minus direction of the axis not in use.)
I was thinking that you might do the G18/G19 in a line prior to the arc moves. You can try it. Your problem could be that a rule is being violated.
Hey Roadrunner,
Thanks for the information. I finally got the issue resolved. My post processor for my CAM software had to be modified. On this older controller, G17, 18, and 19 are non-modal. The software tech support altered my post processor to input these into each line with an arc move. They also had to set the arc command to output arc centers in absolute instead of incremental. This has resolved the issue. Thank you very much for your assistance.
You said that is was a DX-32...What actual machine is it?
Bridgeport Torq-Cut 22 Discovery
That is indeed a DX-32 control. I think that something else is amiss. The codes should have been modal. I am glad that you got it running though.

Coldwell Banker Real Estate Corporation names McKinney as advertising agency of record
"We were extremely impressed by McKinney from the beginning of our search process," said Charlie Young, senior vice president of marketing for Coldwell Banker Real Estate Corporation. "Along with an impressive track record, McKinney clearly understood that the real estate industry is changing with the consumer enjoying more upfront control than ever before. Coldwell Banker takes great pride in its rich 100-year-plus history, but we continue to evolve to meet the demands of today's consumer. We are confident that McKinney will help keep Coldwell Banker very well positioned."
"McKinney will play a lead role in working with Kinesis Marketing (Morristown, NJ), our online AOR, Manning, Selvage & Lee (New York, NY), our public relations AOR, and 02KL (New York, NY), our marketing communications agency, to create a robust and comprehensive marketing approach that clearly defines Coldwell Banker to the consumer," Young continued.

After doing my short workout, and prepping lunch, I hear little man starting to stir. So this is a quicky catchup.
Sidenote: This is the best, best, best salad ever. And if you are as obsessed as I am about Pinterest, please follow me so I can follow you. Or just leave your Pinterest name so I can follow you.
I have been sewing lately. This was supposed to be a shirt, but ended up a wadder. I'm not even sure what went wrong. I think fabric choice (vegan pleather I inherited–why do they call it vegan?) and the length was too short. Every top feels too short now apres bebe. So here's my beautiful mess. Also, most of the pattern for this was created one Sunday morning when hubby was on vacation and took junior to church (one with a nursery!) and I stayed home and played hooky. I somehow feel the need to confess that.
I'm working on knitting a pair of sock for giant little man. He's currently in 2T clothes and 2-4 year socks. Eek! My dad is 6'5″ so God help us all. And by working on, I started them about 2 months ago and haven't looked at them since. Sigh. The pattern is here. And YouTube videos were super helpful.
Here we are at a late summer cookout. First time at the "Big Kid's Table." They had grilled cheese. I swear he hated cheese before this, but is already succumbing to peer pressure! And his first potato chips–a huge hit! He only slid under the table once or twice. Ha! But I was there to catch him.
I read Orange Lingerie's book (now that I'm thinking about, I still have some left to read). If you sew bras, get this book. The most awesome tip for fitting a band is in here. And she's coming out with a bra pattern soon! So this bra fits better than a lot of my older ones, but after making 5 or 6? bras I still have fit issues. I think part of it is I keep "experimenting" and just need to get a basic fit down and then experiment. Alas..
This is my favorite Fall snack. I've made 2 double batches and one single because I didn't have enough ingredients for a double batch. Yummy. But definitely takes 5x as long to bake as the recipe states.
I made a bedskirt and recovered this chair in the ever-so-popular chevron fabric for the nursery, in January. The chair slipcover was pretty severely lacking, but it works. I added snaps from Snapsource and things are fitting much, much, much better. And using their snap setting tool is a lot of fun and super easy. I highly recommend this if you are doing snaps.
Since our little man turned one, a lot of his friends also turned one. So, I sewed a few cute girly clothes. All of his "closest" friends are girls at the moment. Hrm..
This lace jumped into my hands at Artistry in Fashion this year. Now, what to do with it. It is cotton with applique on top and from the 1920s. The color is peachy.
And lastly some kitty love. We do lots of block building/destroying so I made a kitty.
And we had our first face painting experience. Besides wanting to grab the paintbrush, he did great!
Got to run.

Without a doubt, ours is a culture in love with instant gratification. We want our fast food, our 24 hours news services, our Blackberries and iPhones. We want to have it all and have it now, right at our fingertips please. Waiting is not part of our plan. Something like farming and gardening that takes a long time to bear results has become nearly foreign, even suspicious, in our society. Last weekend, at The Community Farm at Chestnut Ridge, a group of ordinary folks did something radical, something without instant gratification; something for the long haul: we planted an orchard.
About 25 people gathered at The Community Farm at Chestnut Ridge to "till and keep" the soil. It was an eclectic group that participated in this first spring work day. Some were young, like the Volunteers for Youth teens, the camp staff children, the Duke Divinity School students; and some of us were older and grayer (and more sore the next day). We were friends, and strangers who became new friends. We worked together in small teams to plant ten fruit trees: peach, cherry, apple, plum, and apricot. We got muddy knees and dirty hands, and we transformed a field into an orchard. And maybe God transformed us a little too.
Planting fruit trees, like we did here last weekend, used to be a fairly ordinary commonplace event, but now it almost feels like a subversive, counter-culture act. It is an act of hope for the future, with little of what society would consider gain for today. There were several comments during the day about how small the trees are now. This isn't a problem – it's a gift from God! We have been given the opportunity to tend and care for something for the long haul, for future gardeners and campers to enjoy. It's an opportunity to reap friendships and grow in love for the land and to sow good works in our community while we wait for the apples and peaches to be ready to eat.
Waiting isn't often part of our plan, but it is part of God's plan. It's not going to take minutes, or hours, or even days, but years and plenty of grace to see and taste the results of our work. It will be worth it, just wait.

Sometimes no sound is the right sound. In Naked in West Upton I used a feeling to replace a sound. You are never without the feeling that someone is standing very close to you. You search, but there is nothing there. Yet you know there is. You can feel it. Someone, or something has just breathed down the back your neck. Letting the character spook their self often works better than a sound. In one story I had a car accident. There are hundreds of sounds for such a scene. I used one word� �WHOOP.� If you can�t find the sound you need, replace it with no sound, or a smell. Smells work good for the reader. |
Ellie | Posted on Apr 25 2012, 06:04 AM | ||
Before a tree actually falls, the decayed tree limbs/branches kind-of slowly break away slowly over time to be followed by the actual tree heading to earth. I would also imagine it depends on the size and age of the tree as to the loudness it would make. Another noise to consider: "karuuuuummmm" accent on the "rummmmmmmm." Actually, it would also depend on the distance of the tree's location and the person listening. Sound of wind in black pines: "weeeeeeeeesh" sort-of a low moaning. Mountain stream: whirring...swishing...bubbling... Just my two-cents-worth... |
Halliday | Posted on Apr 24 2012, 09:52 AM | ||
Thank you, guys. Ellie, highly considering your sound. It's closer than what I was thinking. Everything has a voice in this book. "They heard the sound of the wind through the black pines (vou vou), the mountain beech (trrrr trrrr), and a mountain stream (appropriately named Arkoudorema, Bear River) rushing, scouring, churning below them in the valley." There are, sadly, readers who would prefer them all to shut up, but they are not our kind of readers. Annie |

Listen to npr's Car Talk to the people who try to mimic the sounds their broke cars make - how to spell them, I don't know. Kids are great with onomatopoeias, so maybe ask some 9 yr olds to help. I think if it's adult fiction you'd be better off with describing the sound and how it makes the character feel. |
Joan McCormick | Posted on Apr 22 2012, 05:53 AM | ||
how about the sounds in your ears the blood rushing that you so want to stop so you can really hear everthing out there. | |||
Halliday | Posted on Apr 22 2012, 02:26 AM | ||
When you're alone in a forest, far off from other folk on the Earth (and I hope you've all had this wonderful experience sometime in your life), there are, well, sounds. Some explicable though mysterious (the random "booms" of meteorologic phenomena, the sounds of mating turtles, etc). There are sounds like, you'd swear that was a car engine in the distance (though there's not). And then now and then there's a sound no one knows what it could be, maybe it has to do with bears, and let's hope it doesn't come back again... I'm working with such a sound right now, which is a fairly simple concept, but how to describe-spell what the sound sounds like? While it might have to do with the felling of a tree, I don't want a "crash" to give it away, and it might have to do with a stray stick of dynamite, but a "boom" is too obvious and could be mistaken for thunder. For the time being, I'm using "Kaloomp!" but this is not very satisfying. Any suggestions for a mystery sound for a mystery sound? Annie |

Aviation Industry: A reduction in profit due to rising oil prices
The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has announced a downgrade to its industry outlook for 2012 primarily due to rising oil prices.
IATA now expects airlines to turn a global profit of $3 billion in 2012 for a 0.5 percent margin. This $500 million downgrade from the December forecast is primarily driven by a rise in the expected average price of oil to $115 per barrel, up from the previously forecast $99.
Several factors prevented a more significant downgrade. They include; the avoidance of a significant worsening of the Eurozone crisis; improvement in the US economy; cargo market stabilization; and slower than expected capacity expansion.
"2012 continues to be a challenging year for airlines. The risk of a worsening Eurozone crisis has been replaced by an equally toxic risk - rising oil prices. Already the damage is being felt with a downgrade in industry profits to $3 billion," IATA's Director General and CEO Tony Tyler said.
Airline performance is closely tied to global GDP growth. Historically, when GDP growth drops below 2 percent the global airline industry returns a collective loss.
"With GDP growth projections now at 2 percent and an anemic margin of 0.5 percent, it will not take much of a shock to push the industry into the red for 2012," said Tyler.
IATA revised upwards its estimated profits for 2011 to $7.9 billion from the previously forecast $6.9 billion. This was primarily owing to the much better than expected performance of Chinese carriers.

It is a reflection of the Our Lady of Lourdes statue on the back of a chair. It was taken accidentally by a visitor as she was walking through the chapel and bumped her camera.
What do you see?

All I ask is an antidote allowing all adults around the atmospher an appointment about arguing.
Because brother basic bodies are bound to believe bragging & bribing basically being broad brings about the best. But be
Cautious, cause carpets can't carry couches alone, concrete creeps. Causing careless catholic christians to create children.
Don't damn the deranged, dedicate the distaste to the drugs. drinking, and dumb deeds that did it.
Even Eminem explains enternal emotions excellently.
For fear feeds frusttration, though frustration can find fun in fornitcation. Foul. Focus on friends and family.
Getting grouchy gonorrhea grants graves too gorgeous gilrs. Game over.
However, having herpes hardly helps handsome happy hands.
Indicating interesting intakes, involving inception in indecive individuals.
Just joking, jealousy just justifies Jose Cuervo.
Kinddling kindness kidnaps king kong's kingdom.
Learn like lovers, loathing little, liking largely, letting laughs live loudly.
Maning mold mountains out of mud, make missery monogamous with merry.
Never neglect the notion of nice.
Optimism overcomes others opinions.
Personally, persisting perfection probably puts pessimistic patterns in people's personalities.
Quietly questioning their quality.
Rest assured reading random reactions really is redundant.
Searching someones soul secretely sends self salvation.
Take turns, tell truths, talk, these things take time, they are talents to be treasured.
Understanding ultimatums unlocks unlimited unison.
I met this little number when I was out at the mall
I thought that she was cute and so I gave her a call
We were going to a movie, Saskatoon at the Roxy
When I went to pick her up she was lookin real foxy
We showed up at the flick, she paid for my ticket
This girls lookin solid, you could say that shes a brick (house!)
The date was lookin good so we went back to my place
Started workin my magic cause I had found some real PH
We went straight to my room, just like I had assumed
Ya you can call me Mazda girl, cause I like to Zoom Zoom
Yo this girl is insane, she has no sense of shame
I got her up into my room she's screamin my name.
When we finished doin dirty, she started actin flirty
but then I said "you have to leave cause I gotta wake up early"
So this is how it ends, she went back to her boyfriend's
I had my fun and now I'm done, she's just a lady friend
Batteries destroys the mind
You achieve next to nothing with your plug in baby muse
But here you lay, yet again, questing for a Stone Ring that gives a +1 to all of your skills as a sorceress
When somewhere else in the world a kid just made it to the next round of american idol
and who knows, maybe next year you'll be jamming to his hit track on your ipod
while your sitting in the library busting your ass to get the grades to become somebody you dont even know if you want to be
But I'm sure Einstein would agree with me that being something makes more sense than being nothing
Even though when your nothing your something, unless your a giant whole sucking me, Asia, and Justin Beiber into you to fill the void
But at the end of the day, when you really think about it, it's not even about whether or not you did your best, you just need to be able to sleep that night, and accept the day thats passed...not that you have a choice
Because the PVR doesn't work on the LIFE Network
You can't skip back to the beginning of the track, if you could, why not scratch the CD and listenin to a different remix every time
But Jacob knows it's never too late, there's always tomorrow.
So turn off the screen close your eyes and think for a bit, or at least until that late night ice cap wears off.
Are You going to find your call of duty? or spend another day wishing your brain had built-in bluetooth.
I'm here today to talk about love and all its wonders
so take a seat kiddies
Let's see...where to begin
Well theres that just got your drivers license, so your parents bought you a whip,

You know... that Love that you Love the same Love they Love, Love

That's the Love that I Love to Love
Growing up as a guy I have something to admit
Its that theres so many girls that i'll never forget
So i'll jump right in and go right from the start
and tell you about all these girls that have affected my heart
So lets start with the As there is two that first come to mind
and thats Ambrea and Ashley, their each one of a kind
Now those are my sisters so their first to be said
but lets continue on to who else pops in my head
lets see...there's 2 Ashley As, but only one Ashley G
can't forget Amanda K, or all 7 Amys
There are so many As that we'd have to stay way long
let me wrap it up quick with the cutest one "akon"
You should see all these B's their so pretty it scares me

In the C's we have Crepeele with her pretty long blonde hur

Rachael K the Australian Wonder
Rebecca's art is so good she draws lightning and thunder
Theres a couple of shellys, and Sam 1 and 2
Tara looks like a model, and Tia does too
Don't know any Us, the Vs go in order
Vanessa M, V. Young, and VJ the reporter
If your name wasn't mentioned no need to be sour
this poem was rushed, took me less than an hour
Go on and take a second while I tell you a story
The story bout a boy who wants to get in the glory
trouble maker from day one, his mothers only son
he'd be out gone havin fun until the day was almost done
Started ballin in grade eight, wished he'd started ballin sooner
as far as girls went, he was the latest bloomer
Girls attentions what he wanted, can't resist them when they flaunted
he found a lucky dime, and now his cousins basement couch is haunted
Average grades class, this boy wasn't doctor
needed to make some dough so he got a job at foot locker
had two parents, but he hardly knew his father
his dad had always tried, and that made the boy try even harder
to make his parents proud, and so the story goes farther
It seems like no one really knows
how far their story goes
Lifes a stage, you do your shows
until the curtains close
Back to this punk ass, he slept his way through each class
days started to go fast, and soon graduation passed
He's as smart as a stool, and he acts like a fool,
watchin clone high in a pool of drool, ya this fools a tool
gets a a job selling speakers, the retailer's route
meets a caucasian brother thats so white that hes out
for two years thats his life, he works and he plays
months start to feel like weeks, the weeks turn into days
looks like his life is over, trains gone, he missed it
but this boy flies first class, he at the airport with his ticket
now hes in a town they call a city, all the girls are lookin pretty
failures not an options, its time to get gritty cause...
It seems like no one really knows
how far their story goes
Lifes a stage, you do your shows
until the curtains close
I saw her dancing on the stage
Within my pants I felt a rage
The animal wants out the cage
I hope she's on the same page
She found me standing by the bar
She said she saw me from afar
We went and sat under the stars
She said she lived by where we are
I gestured we go back inside
"Or" she said "we could go in your ride"
I knew right there, this girl is mine
And now it'd be my time to shine
We ended up back at her home
And now its time to make her moan
But moans quickly turned to groans
When I realized I had no domes...
"Fuck!" I thought, "this is a mess"
But suddenly I did digress
Thought "what the hell" and I said yes
When she told me she was on Alesse
Without even thinking I went up in her
Had breakfast, lunch...and she was dinner
I really thought I was a winner
No halo here, this girls a sinner
I left her place dehydrated and thirsty
So I hit the Sev and bought a slurpee
I knew that girl wouldn't hurt me
But then I woke up with crabs...
Happiness comes from within
Forget these judging eyes of sin
Just be yourself, become in sync
Regardless of what others might think
Because you can't please everybody
That just isn't real
Put your focus on you, how do you feel?
Don't believe me? go ahead and try it
Put a smile on face A, and face B won't deny it
What they "heard" about face A
And you'll see it begin
Staring into you again
Judging eyes of sin
Reading your cover
All they do is spread gossip about one another
Big Cities, small towns it's all the same
Put blame to the name of another
To hide their own shame
Everyone's done it
At least once or twice
Whether you bark like the dogs or you squeak like the mice
People WILL talk, but don't mind them at all
Keep your head up, and keep walking tall
Because as you grow old, and life's end becomes nearer
You'll realize the only judging eyes
Are the ones in the mirror
When I moved to brandon I expected to play
But was then asked to manage...boy was that gay
It was too late to leave, I was locked into school
I showed up to class and hoped things would be cool
Now classes were easy, you could say they were a joke
But outside of school I was Seriously BROKE
I went on the hunt to get some cash flow
Where I wound up serving tables at a joint called Echo
The weeks turned to months and things weren't so bad
Even Christmas was saved by my buddy T-brad
During the night it was parties and drinking
I met some great girls, and a few "WHAT WAS I THINKING?!" 's
I finished my first year and school had gone swell
Nothing lower than a "B" with a few "A's" as well
Now year one 's almost over, and surprise, I'm still here
Gonna play college basketball for the first time next year
So what can I say about this small unknown town
Well for starters the people, best ones around
If you threw the girls in a pageant, they'd all tie for 1st
And aside from their beauty, they're all down to earth
The days still pass by, and the first year is through
So I wait to find out the mysteries of year two
Look over the mountain and see your dreams
The journey's long, or so it seems
But still you try to reach the peek
And catch the dreams for which you seek
Every challenge you come upon
You overcome and carry on
And with your scars, and with your stitches
You'll leave your rags, and earn your riches
I need her.
She comes and goes,
In and out of my life as she pleases.
When I see her my heart is lifted in the air,
Almost as if for a moment her wings, became mine.
With her comes summer,
And she shares her beauty with the flowers of my world.
When she leaves me,
Winter grabs hold of my world,
Freezing and killing what once blossomed so beautifully.
Every time she returns,
She returns a new person in a new form,
New hair, new voice, new face, new attitude,
She hides in her new found self.
How does she always find me?
How do I know it's her?
I look in her eyes,
Those beautiful, spirit lifting, love embracing, care free eyes.
Through those eyes she gives me reason for my existence.
Maybe one day she'll stay.
Maybe one day she'll let me love her.
When I'm with her I am whole.
I want my life.
The life I desire seems impossible for me to grasp,
Like a child whose reach is to short for the cookies on top of the fridge.
Instead I watch it from the other side of the glass,
Where I'm haunted by the my true life.
A life that I've tried again and again to run from!
But sooner or later it always catches me.
I want my life.
I miss my home,
I scream for it at the top of my lungs,
But the wind merely blows the sound further East.
I don't belong in this new place,
I don't fit in.
I wish I could click my heels and be back in Kansas.
I miss my home.

For reasons it won't bore you with, The Fantasist has only gone and missed the selection deadline.
And it's just about the worst week possible to drop such a clanger - this week's team features no fewer than SIX non-playing, er, players. Over to you, DJ Campbell.
And that, friends, is why it really is a very good idea to make your changes a day or two ahead of the deadline.

Garnet Quality
Garnet is the traveler's gem for it protects you when you are far from home. Early travelers used garnets as talismans to light up the night and keep away evil.

A well-cut garnet is also important because the right cut will maximize the color and well as allow the garnet to sparkle with light. Gemvara carries two varieties of garnets: affordable red garnets from Mozambique, which have an earthy red-ocher color, and rhodolite garnets, which have a rich raspberry color.

Site has about 7,000 products and high res images. I also need support for 30 days after work is completed.
Site needs to be built on my server and laid out like Zappos.com

I'm having some problems when recording Midi in Fl Studio 9.
I decided to switch to this from Reason as the VST's really appeal to me, but when I record and play the notes on my midi keyboard Fl studio seems to **** up all the timing on the notes. I know I could go back and drag the notes around in the piano but that messes up workflow.
In Reason I have my snap set to 1/32 and after I've recorded everything is all nicely quantized and sounds good, but FL Studio doesnt seem to have this feature it's really frustrating.
Anybody know what settings I should use on Fl Studio to make it quantize while recording?

National Public Lands Day, September 28, 2013Join us at the Meadowood Special Recreation Management Area as we celebrate the 20th anniversary of National Public Lands Day (NPLD). With the help of dedicated volunteers, we'd really like to finish painting our perimeter fence! Be a part of the only national event when communities, organizations, and local governments participate in volunteer projects to improve our public lands.
Visit with our partners at the National Environmental Education Foundation (NEEF) to learn more about NPLD activities across the nation.
See what National Public Lands Day 2012 Volunteers accomplished!

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Meadowood Special Recreation Management Area, along with many partners, is pleased to announce that construction of a Mason Neck Gateway Kiosk will begin shortly. Planning for the Gateway exhibit began almost seven years ago and will highlight the area's history and exceptional outdoor recreational opportunities.
Please contact John Reffit, (703) 339-3467, for further information. A conceptual site plan for the project is available on request.
For the second year in a row, Team Wood Thrush paid a visit to the Bureau of Land Managment's Meadowood Special Recreation Management Area in Lorton, Virginia. On Tuesday, April 23, over 30 English As A Second Language students from Hayfield, Virginia, followed Mary A. Elfner, Virginia Audubon Council, into the woods at Meadowood. Students, teachers, and Bureau of Land Management staff followed the Wood Thrush Trail and listened for the sounds of birds.
Mary would hush the crowd as the "calls" would come out of the woods and in the sky overhead. Binoculars raised, ears tuned in to the sounds of the wood thrush, pileated woodpeckers, blue jays and many other species of birds would capture the attention of the students (and adults!). Mary told the crowd that more bird songs could be heard if the weather were sunny and warm, not the chilly temperatures experienced by the current group.
However, many birds did make their presence known. Students were able to identify many of the calls they heard. Virginia Audubon members are frequent visitors to the 13.2 miles of Meadowood trails, and have developed surveys for bird species that may be found here. Visit www.audubonva.org/index.php/conservation-a-counts/occoquan-and-meadowood-area-bird-survey to download a survey.
Meadowood trails are open to the public, sunrise to sunset, seven days a week, free of charge. Trail maps are available at each kiosk and parking area. Plan a visit soon!
Many volunteers assisted the Bureau of Land Management's Meadowood Special Recreation Management Area staff to clean up a portion of the Potomac River watershed on April 13, 2013. Students and adults came prepared in old clothes,wearing boots and gloves as they picked up a dozen bags of debris and trash. There were also ten tires, a large metal frame of unknown origin, rebar and assorted other trash items. The South Branch of Massey Creek now looks 100% cleaner. Meadowood wants to thank all the volunteers who gave several hours of their time for a good cause!

Re: Wild Animal Park or Zoo?Mary, dgstan, Joel, Vince: thanks for the info! --- I'm still undecided, but Palm Desert is clocking in at 117F right now, so if heat is a factor Balboa Park might win out, even if its farther. But thanks for the heads up!
Re: Wild Animal Park or Zoo?Ah. It was so sad when Fraiser the lion died. I loved Lion Country Safari as a kid.
Vince - if you really want to eat lunch with a lion, try the Shambala Preserve that Tippi Hedren runs. http://www.shambala.org/ Lions, Tigers, and (no bears) Panters, oh my. I haven't been there yet, but I've heard it's pretty cool. It's a little expensive (minimum $40 donation) but it is tax deductible. And everyone in your party must 18 or older.
Re: Wild Animal Park or Zoo?Thanx Ancient,
I would love to take that tour...next time I am in LA, but I see you have to make reservations far in advance. A few years ago, my wife "adopted" a Lion from the San Francisco Zoo for me on my birthday after we visited them. It was cool, I received pictures, up-to-date info, a portfolio and all this stuff about my "child." Vince P Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.

Manufacturers are making it easier for homeowners to be eco-friendly with designs that are sustainable and sleek. Here's a look at some of the most interesting on the market.
A housing-market upturn means lenders are luring some upscale home buyers with tempting deals on mortgages; incentives include lower rates and looser qualifying rules, but wealthy home buyers should consider the cost of concessions.

Solar power describes various methods to extract energy from the light of the sun. Solar energy is relatively pollution free, and solar facilities run with little extra input or maintenance. However, the best placed locations tend to be remote from the places where the energy demand is highest. Solar energy is also limited in dark or cloudy conditions. The use of solar power for energy is believed to increase tenfold in coming years as the technology and storing capacity is being refined.
Californian Nanosolar Company invests 100 million dollars in mass production of solar panels.
commentsSolar energy is the most perspective direction in the world power industry development, Zhores Alferov says.
commentsSpecial helio-system, working on solar energy, provides Sochi University with hot water.
commentsOver the next ten years, the European Union will invest around 1 trillion Euros updating an outdated energy system in order to save energy and meet climate change demands.

Racehorse Miss Finland Wins Golden SlipperBy Kentucky Equine Research Staff · October 20, 2006
When Miss Finland dominated this year's running of the Golden Slipper Stakes, staged in Australia, she topped a string of remarkable achievements for a revered Hunter Valley breeding farm and a South Australian racing dynasty.
Australiahas a rich tradition of two-year-old Thoroughbred racing and features several lucrative stakes in its juvenile program. The jewel in this crown is the 1200-meter Group 1 AAMI Golden Slipper Stakes. Locally referred to as the "Golden Slipper" and held annually during Sydney's Autumn Racing Carnival, the 2006 edition marked the 50th anniversary of the event. Run at Rosehill Gardens and open only to two-year-old colts and fillies, the race was contested on April 8 for a purse of $3 million.
This year Miss Finland left an unforgettable mark on the Australian racing scene by beating a class-packed field and finishing four and one-half lengths ahead of her closest rival. The victory cemented trainer David Hayes' reputation as a skilled conditioner of two-year-olds and brought the amazing run of success experienced by the powerful Lindsay Park Racing Stables this season to its crescendo. Hayes was tremendously excited after his first Golden Slipper win. "She was just so dominant today," he enthused. "I think we have a very exciting horse going forward with this filly." Hayes was also responsible for training the third-place finisher, Churchill Downs.
The Golden Slipper is preceded by the 1200-meter Group 1 AAMI Blue Diamond Stakes, contested at Caulfield Racecourse in southeastern Melbourne. The "Blue Diamond" is Victoria's richest race for two-year-olds, worth $1 million. In perfect preparation for the Golden Slipper, Hayes saddled both the winner and second-place finisher in this year's running of the Blue Diamond. Nadeem, positioned back in the field, came with a barnstorming run in the homestretch to beat Miss Finland by two and a quarter lengths. The win was Hayes' third Blue Diamond triumph.
Lindsay Park
Established by legendary trainer Colin S. Hayes in 1965, Lindsay Park is steeped in racing lore. Based in the South Australian Barossa Valley, Lindsay Park is situated in an area more famous for production of wine than racehorses. Indeed, when Lindsay Park was moved to its current location from Semaphore Park in Adelaide, the general consensus among horsemen in the Thoroughbred industry reproved such a move and many people predicted failure for the now venerable institution. Years later, however, the notion of failure is laughable, for Lindsay Park possesses every possible convenience and extravagance for preparing racehorses as well as a most enviable racing record.
Colin's son David began running the operation in 1990 with great success. In the five years that David first trained at Lindsay Park, he won every premiership (leading training title) in Adelaide and Victoria and won countless Group 1 races (the most prestigious) including the Melbourne Cup. In 1996, David accepted a position to train in Hong Kong, where he continued his winning ways. While in Hong Kong, David was the country's leading trainer two years and never strayed from the top four. He saddled mounts that won over $100 million.
With David in Hong Kong, brother Peter continued to win premierships for Lindsay Park until his tragic death in March, 2001. Despite his nearest rivals having over four months to surpass his tally of winners, Peter Hayes still managed to win the Melbourne trainer's premiership for the 2000/2001 season. Longtime assistant trainer Tony McEvoy, who had by that time worked for Lindsay Park for 26 years, took over the reins after Peter's death and continued the tradition of winning premierships, securing four in Adelaide and one in Melbourne until David returned from Hong Kong in August 2005. Together, Colin, Peter, Tony and David have won 66 Australian training premierships in Adelaide and Melbourne, a record that is unlikely to be beaten in Australia or any other country.
Lindsay Park's continued growth and expansion has underpinned its unrivaled track record. With the development of new racing stables at Flemington Racecourse in Melbourne and establishment of a second facility in Victoria, the Lindsay Park operation has continued to evolve. The amazing foresight and innovation of Colin Hayes enabled him to create a racing and breeding empire that continues to make history. Few would argue that Colin Hayes lived by his motto, "The future belongs to those who plan for it."
Arrowfield Stud
To some, Miss Finland's success would almost come as no surprise. Indeed, she would seem to have an impeccable pedigree for two-year old contests. Her sire, Redoute's Choice, has a truly outstanding record. A 1996 bay stallion by the incomparable Danehill, Redoute's Choice proved a smashing success on the racetrack. He romped to victory in four Group I events during his racing career and was named 1999-2000 Champion Three-Year-Old Miler in Australasia. His winnings totaled more than $1.5 million.
A winner of the 1999 Blue Diamond himself, Redoute's Choice has sired the winners of both the Golden Slipper and the Blue Diamond, for two years running! In 2005, Stratum won the Golden Slipper and Undoubtedly won the Blue Diamond. Even more remarkably, Redoute's Choice sired the first- and second-place finishers in both the 2005 Golden Slipper and the 2006 Blue Diamond. Setting a record, Redoute's Choice sired six of the sixteen runners in the 2005 Golden Slipper field. Rightly so, Redoute's Choice is considered the "hottest sire in Australia" and one of the world's top stallions.
Redoute's Choice stands at Arrowfield Stud and heads an impressive roster of nine stallions, including Danzero, Falbrav, Flying Spur, Hussonet and the exciting new sire Snitzel. The Arrowfield property is situated in the Segenhoe Valley, a highly fertile pocket of land near Scone in the Upper Hunter Valley of New South Wales, renowned for its production of class racehorses.
The breeding of Miss Finland was the result of a mating between Redoute's Choice and Forest Pearl, a daughter of Woodman. Though she never raced, royal blood courses through Forest Pearl's veins, as she is the daughter of the game race mare Moonshell (Ire), winner of the 1995 Group I English Oaks. Arrowfield cared for Forest Pearl throughout her pregnancy, and on August 16, 2003, Forest Pearl gave birth to a splendid filly. She remained under the care and supervision of Arrowfield through weaning and preparation for sale as a yearling.
As a yearling, Miss Finland was sold at the prestigious Sydney Easter Yearling Sales for $450,000. After she sold, John Mascara, managing director of Arrowfield, commented that, in his opinion, she would be one of the country's best fillies in the next season. His prediction was spot-on.
Countless variables converge to determine the fate of equine athletes like Miss Finland. Through unwavering dedication to the horse and the sport, Lindsay Park Stud and Racing Stables and Arrowfield have achieved unparalleled success.

Clarksville Police are asking for the public's help in solving an armed robbery of a convenience store from over the weekend.
A news release says two black males entered the Kangaroo Mart on Dover Road at Kelsey Drive around 1:30am Saturday. One was wearing all black with a white shirt tied around his head and was carrying a handgun.
The other was wearing all red with a red bandana around his face. The pair got away with 65 dollars and cigarettes.
They are believed to have left in a blue Oldsmobile with dark tinted windows. Photos of the suspects are under the local news section of our website.
Anyone with information on the incident should call 931-645-TIPS.
More non-traditional students are taking advanced placement courses compared to previous years in Christian County.
According to latest data released by Christian County Public School officials, 96 students took AP tests in 2006, compared to 515 students this year, with the percentage of students passing the exams decreasing slightly from this year to last year.
Latest data indicates that 122 students received scores of 3 to 5 this year, while 160 students received those scores last year. A score of 3 or higher is passing.
Chief Instructional Officer Amy Wilcox explains why the number of students who qualified for college credit through their AP classes decreased, while the number of test takers increased.
Ms. Wilcox says even when a student doesn't qualify to receive college credit for their AP course, school officials believe it's important for those students to be challenged academically.
This is Responsible Gaming Education Week in Kentucky and one official says there are some tell-tale signs that indicate if you have a gambling problem.
Kentucky Council on Problem Gambling spokesman Mike Stone says if you have a hard time stopping yourself from gambling after losing, you likely have a problem.
Stone says if you have ever lied about how much you gamble, it's a sign you have a problem.
There's no particular method of gambling that creates addiction faster, according to Stone, who compares it to alcoholics who prefer different types of drinks.
A 2008 survey by the University of Kentucky found there were 9,000 addicted gamblers and 50,000 problem gamblers in the state.
Many of Kentucky's top politicians were absent from Saturday's Fancy Farm Picnic in Graves County, but the show still went on with a rowdy crowd.
U.S. Senate minority Leader Mitch McConnell did attend and talked about this year's presidential election, saying it's time for a change.
Kentucky House Speaker Greg Stumbo, who recently made an unannounced visit to Todd County, took a shot back at Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney regarding his foreign cash investments.
Governor Steve Beshear, Lieutenant Governor Jerry Abramson and Senator Rand Paul were not in attendance, while Secretary of State Alison Grimes and House Minority Leader Jeff Hoover did make an appearance.
Austin Peay State University recently received national recognition.
APSU was named one of the best colleges in the nation to work for according to a survey by The Chronicle of Higher Education.
APSU was the only public university in Tennessee to make the list.
The results from the annual survey are based on information gathered from 46,000 employees at 294 colleges and universities.
In addition, APSU won honors in five categories this year, including collaborative governance, professional/ career development programs, teaching environment, confidence in senior leadership and tenure clarity and process.
APSU President Tim Hall was quoted as saying the survey results is a very satisfying affirmation of APSU, but the real goal of the university is not recognition-it's being a community that values the needs and contributions of every individual.

As a foreign national arriving in the United States getting renter or auto insurance can be a frustrating experience. Complex forms filled with insurance industry jargon and requirements of information you either don't know or don't have readily available are time consuming and exasperating. Lack of US driving or credit history often leads to needlessly high premiums or even refusal of coverage by insurance providers that simply do not have experience working with expatriates. Planning ahead and partnering with Jacob Street will alleviate those concerns.

tasks widget and multi screen
This was clear when I went to fix some bugs reported from beta 1 only to find it very hard to do so due to the fragility of the code. It was essentially working, but needed some clean up and general code quality lovin'. As usual, the Plasma team stepped up and things, while probably not perfect (things never are ;), is a lot nicer. Performance is up, crashes are fewer .. and now we can go about rooting out remaining bugs and problems with a lot less headache.
It was impressive to see in some cases how entire sets of methods from the widget could be removed with chrigi's new work in libtaskmanager. He removed, for instance, all management of startup tasks as being somehow different from regular tasks in the widget: all of that is now handled in the library, making the widget itself simpler. Loverly.
Work remains to be done, but it's getting there nicely. This coming week I'll be shifting my focus to multi-screen issues. In theory, with Kephal (the fancy dancy screen management framework in 4.2) we should be able to nail the remaining beasties 4.1 had in these situations. Dual head will still likely suck to some degree (Plasma's fault, not Kephal), but I want to work on getting xinerama style setups and hot plug monitors working flawlessly.
The multiscreen bug fixing work probably won't land in time for beta2, unfortunately, but we now have enough people running trunk with multiple screens that that shouldn't matter too much.
Thanks for all the bugs reported on multiscreen issues, it will be our roadmap for what to concentrate on this week. =)

Hi Aaron,
good to know that the multiscreen stuff is on your roadmap. I have a dual head (I guess) setup at work with one intel chipset and two outputs (tdmi and vga) which is driving me mad. How can we (the users) help you with this? Maybe a "what information to include in multiscreen related bug reports" note will be helpful. I for once still don't get the different multiscreen scenarios (xinerama, mergefb, twinview, dual head) entirely...
Keep up the good work! - 7/12/08 08:49
- Jordi said...
You may want to take a look the all the dualhead, etc. Reported on the general "kde" component.
I guess Kephal already close some of those but noone who really knows it have trasverse them. - 7/12/08 11:18
- TonyM said...
Great to hear you are working on multi-screen. Unfortunately, you won't be able to make some of the bugs go away because Qt itself has bugs in this area (which you probably already know, hence the existence of kephal).
I really need to look at Qt 4.5 and see if they are addressing any of the multi-screen issues they have. Try changing the resolution of your left monitor, assuming you have a 2nd to the right. - 7/12/08 17:15
- Porcel said...
Thank you for choosing to pay more attention to multi-screens setups. Those that want to promote kde among academic and business users need a flowless experience when working with external monitors and projectors.
My medion akoya netbook dual-boots mandriva and windows because I can´t do dual screens properly in Mandriva (kde 4.1.3). In windows, I am able to clone the content of the laptop screen to the external monitor AND scale the content appropriately so that it uses the right native resolution for each one (1024x600 for the netbook and 1680x1020 for the external one), but this isn´t possible in linux. It only outputs to both by keeping the resolution at 800x600 which is just terrible.
This is the only thing where the user experience is currently better in Windows than Linux. As a linux user and sysadmin, I would like to nail this so that I can promote kde 4 with confidence among my users.
So, I have two questions:
1) Am I clear on what I want: scaled clone output that respects each monitor native resolution and
2) What can I do to make it happen?
I am willing to put debugging time and a bit money to fix this.
Thanks again for listening and I look forward to your response. - 7/12/08 18:17
- TonyM said...
I don't think this is possible, even in windows. As far as I know, clone output must have the same resolution on both monitors. You are stuck with whatever modes are supported by both monitors.
Additionally, some Linux drivers have a max screen size. I have an Intel i945GM card and it is limited to 2048x2048. My built-in panel is 1400x1050, so I can't have more than 1024x768 on an external monitor. There is a work-around to allow me to have a 1680x1050 external monitor, but it disables glx and requires an X restart, yuck.
So, most of this is out of KDE's hand. However, what KDE can and should do is present you with a clear interface that communicates these limitations. Krandr still needs some work ;) - 7/12/08 18:49

Hi Aaron,
I have a Twinview setup that works almost perfectly and would love to help to polish it more (ksplash, maybe kdm. it was fun watching the cashew jumping around the screen with each svn update recently) - 7/12/08 19:40
- CitizenKane said...
Please feel free to use me as a resource for this. I often feel like I'm one of the few people with a multi-monitor setup. I have no problem being a guinea pig to help make this rock!
- 8/12/08 06:56
- Porcel said...
You are quite wrong about this not being possible. As I stated, I am currently doing just what I described in Windows.
I have one external monitor at 1650x1080 and the laptop one at 1024x600. The output from the laptop to the external one is scaled to the external monitor´s native resolution and it works beautifully.
So, it is indeed possible. Whether this is a limitation of Xorg, intel drivers or kde or a combination of those, I don´t know.
I have been using Linux and kde since 1999. I give presentations all day long and carry my netbook around a lot often hooking it up to an external monitor so that I can work more comfortably.
This issue is my only real show-stopping bug. - 8/12/08 10:59
- Aaron J. Seigo said...
@people wanting to help test: i'll be working on these things in #plasma on irc wednesday-friday. you'll need an svn build of KDE, the list of bugs (see link below) and some patience ;)
@Porcel: that is a driver feature, afaik. scaling th one resolution down to another probably isn't a very commonly requested feature due to the distortion it creates making it only really useful for people doing presentations such as yourself. in any case, it's not something we address in KDE code. we rely on the drivers and x.org to provide the features; KDE can only provide access to configuration and then use them properly.
in the case of scaled clones, to KDE it would look just like one screen anyways. - 8/12/08 14:48
- Hans said...
Everyone who's using Twinview, can you please try the Plasma screensaver? (Allow widgets on screen saver).
I've got a weird issue (that Chani "refuses" to fix it - and I understand her!): I can't click anywhere. It works good when I disable Twinview.
To make it even stranger, I can scroll the Add Widget list (bring up with Ctrl+A), but left/middle/right mouse click doesn't work.

That's the thing Aaron, there are no artifacts or weirdness in the output.
If screenshots were of any use, I would be happy to oblige. By the way, how do you show off KDE at conferences when you are doing a presentation on your laptop and a projector?
Do you just choose a very low resolution for both as that is the only thing that seems to work for me? - 10/12/08 23:14
- notanavragelosr said...
the biggest problem I've been having with multiple displays is desktop activities. As soon as you try to actually use the ZUI, it seems like plasma gets all kinds of confused.
Let's say I have two activities (A and B) and two monitors (L and R). I have it set up so that monitor A is left of B, with the two acting as one large viewing area. Normally, I have A on L, and B on R. When I zoom out, A and B appear side-by-side on BOTH monitors (L and R). This happens when I click the cashew from either monitor.
Trying to zoom in is where things get really interesting. When I click "zoom in" on activity B while viewed on screen R, I would expect activity B to fill screen R. That happens. Sometimes. Other times, activity B will be filling monitor L. Sometimes, Activity B gets cloned, and shows up on both screens. That gets kind of weird - moving widgets shows them traveling the same distance (relative to the physical monitor edges) on monitors L and R.
There just doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason to it. My "workaround" so far is to have an activity switcher in every activity. With a few random clicks, I'm able to set up the activities relative to the monitors in the way I like. - 11/12/08 06:10

My psychiatrist has had to field more after-hours and weekend calls than any surgeon that has ever treated me. Or even any primary care physician. As Emme points out about her doctor, mine has sent me for tests, made sure I see other specialist when it is called for, and is sending me for a second consult because I am having a hard time remaining stabilized.
Most -- no way. Are there bad apples in the bunch -- definitely. If you don't like your doctor, spike4848, go get yourself a neurologist, but lay off the slap in the face you are giving pyschiatrists. It is no better than lawyer bashing. It is not fair to the profession and those who work hard for their patients.
