I've certainly gotten off my strictly electronic kick. Or, perhaps, there's just been a nice swing in another direction (doom & dirge rock, rhythmic tribal noise, experimental hip-hop) with new releases. One new release included in this broadcast (Black Rain) is on that electronic wave still and the material on it isn't the newest, but the release on Blackest Ever Black is and it's exciting to me for sure.

Gaudete - A Christmas Concert
Holywell Music Room
Wednesday 18th December at 7.30
Sirinu perform a selection of Latin and Swedish songs from the Piae Cantiones, together with other related renaissance instrumental music and vocal pieces intended for the Christmas period.
With Sirinu and the South Oxford Youth Choir
Many of the Piae Cantiones songs in this concert will be familiar to audiences as they were used as the basis for popular 19th century English carols by John Mason-Neale, such as 'Good King Wenceslas', 'In Dulci Jubilo' and 'Unto Us a Boy is Born'. All of them share a beautiful and timeless quality born of constant use over the centuries. A concert for voices, harp, viol, lute, sackbut, and recorder - for all the family with audience participation.

Things have been rather quiet on the streets of Street Crime lately. All of you no doubt are eagerly anticipating the release of kill and attack. So to spice things up a little bit we have listened to some nice suggestions over the past few weeks and taken some action.
Introducing Zombie Infection 2 – A new out break of the zombie virus has occurred 50 miles away from the streets of Street Crime, the first infected are expected to arrive friday at 17:00 game time. Work as a team in your crews to slay the most infected zombies to earn yourself and your crew big prizes.
The top 3 crews will win there crew a unique crew item, which will not be able to be won or bought anywhere else in the game, possibly ever again.
The top 5 players will each win 14 days free memberships, a special badge for there profile identifying them forever more as a top notch hunter of zombies and the following tiered prizes in credit items.
Zombies can bite you, in which case you must visit the hospital and buy the anti toxin to be released. Whilst its up to you to buy the toxin as quickly as possible, the longer you leave it the longer the recovery time before you can get back out into the action will be. Also we've added a somewhat sadistic twist, whilst bitten and not cured, your profile status will show 'infected', whilst you are infected anyone that sends you a message or attempts to mug you will also become infected, make sure you check peoples status's before you take actions.
Zombies in this outbreak are tougher than before and take a few more bullets to knock down and make sure they stay down. Its also a good chance for you to test out your new weaponry.
To coincide with the outbreak we will also be holding a 20% off credit item sale starting at 12:00 (midday) friday afternoon and lasting through till monday midday 12:00pm game time.

Description of Research
Our research is focused on understanding cell-cell signaling mechanisms controlling development, stem cell function and regeneration of the epidermis and organs such as hair follicles, mammary glands, taste papillae and teeth that arise from embryonic ectoderm (ectodermal appendages). We have shown that Wnt/beta-catenin signaling is required for initiating the formation of hair follicles, mammary glands and taste papillae from multipotent cells in the embryonic surface ectoderm. We are currently using genetic approaches to determine how Wnt signaling is regulated and patterned within the skin, and are utilizing activation of this pathway in strategies for organ regeneration. We are using genetic approaches to identify Wnt ligands and receptors required for appendage development, and to investigate the roles played by non-beta-catenin mediated Wnt signaling in the skin. We are also interested in epigenetic mechanisms controlling development, differentiation, regeneration and tumorigenesis. We are studying the functions of Dicer, Drosha and miRNAs in the formation and maintenance of hair follicles and mammary glands, and investigating the mechanisms by which histone deacetylases control self-renewal and differentiation of skin stem cells.

Each day holds a new record for each of the networking sites, who are constantly competing with each other to increase their popularity. Inclusion into a circle of friends having similar aims in life can be mutually beneficial. You will find ones who will have similar interests as yours, with whom you can soon start a conversation. Interacting with a new person in the real world is not very easy for a few of us, but the virtual world of Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Google+ can be used with full potential to increase popularity of your business. Interaction with people from various backgrounds can give you new ideas and improve visibility of your business among a wider audience.
Gone are the days when a business would be promoted by an advertisement in the yellow pages or newspapers, in a new and modern era where people prefer to interact directly with each other, you must not lag behind. Give a head start to your business by finding a circle of friends with whom you can bank on for a profit. With inclusion of new features, applications, groups and communities, networking sites are able to draw in users from various backgrounds. Social networking sites are flooded with members who have different aims to achieve in life. Finding a place for yourself in them will not be very hard.
When you create a public profile in a networking site, you are looking for an audience. You have to make your page engaging to draw interest of people who matter. Your page has to to be as riveting as possible, with a good description about your business and company logo as a profile picture. You must see that your audience is not lacked of any information about your business, but also keep in mind that beating about the bush about your business will also not do any good. Keep description about your business as simple and captivating as possible, so that you can reach out to a target audience. Just creating a profile is not going to help your business. Promoting your business by keeping your web page active must be your aim. You need to contact your target audience in order to seal a deal with them and convert them into your customers in future.

What exactly is matter? Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. There are two main ways of classifying matter. Matter is classified first by its physical state as a solid, liquid, or gas. Secondly, we classify matter by it chemical constitution as an element, a compound, or a mixture. We are going to learn about the differences between atoms, ions, and molecules, the differences between compounds, elements, and mixtures, and the difference between physical and chemical changes.
To understand what matter is, we first must comprehend the three different states that it can exist in. Those three physical states are solids, liquids, and gases. A good example to illustrate this is water. Water, in its solid state is ice, in its liquid state is liquid water, and in its gaseous state is steam.
Solids usually have a definite shape and a definite volume. However, when a solid is broken into smaller pieces it is not changed chemically. For example if you crush an aspirin into a power it is still a solid just in smaller pieces.
Now we have the problem of distinguishing between a liquid and a gas. What makes a liquid different from a gas is the characteristic of compressibility. A gas is easily compressible, where a liquid is not. Say for instance that you have a piston within an enclosed tube. If the tube is filled with steam, and then the piston is compressed, it is easy to compress the steam with the piston. As a result, the piston travels far into the tube. Now we put water into the enclosed tube. It is not nearly as easy to push the piston down into the tube now. Why? Well, a liquid is a lot harder to compress than a gas. This is because the molecules in the gas are farther apart than the molecules in the liquid.
These two characteristics that we have discussed, how rigid an object is, and an object's ability to be compressed, are used to determine the three basic states of matter
A solid is a form of matter which is made distinct by it rigidity. That is, a solid has a fairly fixed volume and shape, and is harder to compress than a gas or a liquid.
A liquid is a form of matter that is a fairly incompressible. This means that a liqiud basically has a fixed volume, but not a fixed shape. It takes the shape of its container.
A gas is an easily compressible fluid. This means that a given quantity of gas will fit into a container of any size and shape. A gas has neither a definite volume nor a definite shape.
An atom is an extremely small particle of matter that retains its identity during chemical reactions. During the latter nineteenth century a series of experiments showed that atoms are comprised of smaller particles. An atom consists of a nucleus and one or more electrons surrounding the nucleus. The nucleus, the core of the atom, has the majority of the mass of the atom, and a positive charge. An electron is a very light particle which circles the nucleus. It has a negative charge. In an electrically neutral atom, the number of electrons equals the positive charge on the nucleus. The nucleus of the atom is composed of two smaller particles called neutrons and protons. A proton has a positive charge equal in magnitude to the negative charge of an electron. This means that in an electrically neutral atom (one with an equal number of protons and electrons), the postive charge of the protons, combined with the negative charge of the electrons, would result in no charge because they would cancel each other out. A proton's mass, however, is a whopping 1836 times that of the electron. A neutron has a mass almost identical to a proton's, but it has no electrical charge associated with it.
A molecule is a definite group of atoms that are chemically bonded together. They are tightly connected by attractive forces. A molecular formula is a chemical formula that gives the exact number of different types of atoms in a molecule. Some simple molecular substances are carbon dioxide, CO2; ammonia, NH3; and water, H2O. The atoms that are in a molecule are not just stuffed together without any order. The atoms are chemically bonded to one another in order to form a definite arrangement. A structural formula is a chemical formula which shows how the atoms are bonded to one another to form a molecule. A good example is the structural formula for water, H-O-H. Those two horizontal lines connecting the H with the O (hydrogen and oxygen) represent the chemical bonds joining the atoms.
An ion is an electrically charged particle obtained from an atom or chemically bonded group of atoms by adding or removing electrons. Now what this means is that an ion is the result of taking away, or adding, electrons to an atom or a chemically bonded group of atoms. By taking away, or adding, these electrons, the particle takes on an electrical charge. Atoms are electrically neutral as they contain an equal number of positive and negative charges. An atom that adds an extra electron to it becomes a negatively charged ion. This type of ion is called an anion. An atom which loses one or more of its electrons now has a positive charge, and is called a cation. For example, a sodium atom can lose one of its electrons and form a sodium cation. Now, instead of being Na, it would be Na+1. This means that the sodium atom has an overall positive charge of +1. Another example would be a neutral atom of Sulfur, S. If this atom of S were to gain two electrons it would become S-2. The sulfur atom would now have a total negative charge of -2.
It has 16 protons and 18 electrons.John Dalton (1766-1844) provided us with the Atomic Theory. His theory says that all matter is composed of small particles called atoms.
We now know that atoms are not indivisible , since they contain protons,
neutrons, electrons and other subatomic particles. However, other than this
mistake Dalton's ideas are essentially correct.
An element is a substance that is composed of only one kind of atom like aluminum, iron, or neon. Today, 109 elements are known and listed on the periodic table.
A compound is a substance of more than one element, chemically combined. A more scientific definition is that a compound is a type of matter composed of atoms of two or more elements chemically combined in fixed proportions. An example of a compound would be water. It is a compound that contains the elements hydrogen and oxygen fixed in the ratio 2 to 1. A compound has new properties unlike the elements which make it up. A compound has a chemical formula such as H2O.
A mixture is a material that can be separated by physical means into two or more substances. A classic example of a mixture lab would be one in which you were presented a mixture of sand, iron filings, and salt. You are told to separate these materials. How do you do that? Well, think about the various physical properties of each material. You use a magnet to separate out the iron filings. You then mix water with the sand and salt mixture. You swish the water, salt and sand around for a while and then filter it. The salt dissolved into the water, so the salt water solution passes through the filter while the sand gets left in the filter. Now we slowly heat up the salt water solution, and evaporate the water, and we are left with salt. In a mixture, the compounds are not in a definite proportion. For example, a teaspoon of salt in a liter of water is salt water, but so is a cup of salt in a liter of water.
A physical change is a change in the form of matter but not in its identity. An example of a physical change would be the dissolving of one thing into another thing. For instance, dissolving sugar into water. The water and the sugar retain their chemical identities and can be separated by physical means. Another example is ice melting to water. Ice and water are both H2O. The identity of the matter is not changed, just the state that it is in.
A chemical change is a change in which one kind of matter is changed into a different type of matter. Some examples of chemical changes: the rusting of your car, setting your shoe on fire, digesting food, and the burning of magnesium metal in oxygen to form magnesium oxide. All of these materials combine chemically with another material , and cannot be separated by any physical means.

Wadell anyone??I have tommorow off for Holiday. Planning on heading down to Wadell in the late morning. Anyone interested in heading down?
I do believe Zeev is heading tomorrow with an open schedule to play in the waves, try him. I'm sure the diesel bills add up!
I'll have to send him a private msg. I may try ocean beach as well since it has been good all week. Maybe I can hook up with Daren
I'd love to go to Waddell next time with a little less wave (I hope). I've been watching people kiting over there for a while now and I know I want to try it sometime soon. People I've talked today was extremely nice! Local people said it may not be windy tomorrow. Now I feel like I should have gone there earlier in a day. Maybe next time.

The Mamba has more high speed turn than any of Innovas long range drivers, so throwing into a headwind is not recommended. For those with less driving speed, it will add distance. For the medium armed crowd, it will shape long lines for turnovers and straight shots, as well as hyzer flips and even big rolls.

We've got 3 more weeks of "High-5" contests left including this week, and 3 of the major conferences still don't have outright champions or division titles in the bag. This weeks matchups should help determine some of those outcomes, and we'll get to them shortly.
The SEC East & Western divisions are in the bag. Auburn's Cam Newton put controversy behind him, and Heisman in front of him to bury the Dawgs, (and shut me up....until Georgia Tech in 2 weeks!), and Marcus Lattimore carried 40 times for 212 yds and 3 TD"s for South Carolina, in shocking the Gators in the Swamp to clinch the SEC East. Nice touch, Mr. Spurrier.
We had a very strong turnout last week with 64 entries. Most bit on Florida taking out the Gamecocks, but we had an equally strong amount of entries banking on the Old Coach, with 8 picking all 5 games correctly. I hate that we can't send a FREE Original Retro Brand shirt to all 8, but we did choose 2 winners in the drawing this week, and they are.........Daniel Wright from Crawfordville, Florida, and Reid Fenlaw from Denver, Colorado. Congrats to both!
Before the games, the rules...
1) Each Tuesday I will preview 5 of the most compelling College Football Matchups for the upcoming weekend and offer my expertise, or more commonly lack thereof as witnessed by last week, as to who will win & why, along with a predicted final score.
2) Contestants will e-mail their picks for the same 5 games to me, and the person that beats me and/or the person who picks the most games correctly (no point spreads, straight up wins and losses) will win a FREE Original Retro Brand t-shirt of their choice. In the event of a tie, we will have a drawing to determine the final winner. Send your picks to me at email@example.com no later than kickoff of the first scheduled game to be counted!
3) I will announce the winner each Tuesday following the weekend's games with the upcoming new picks on the blog. In addition to the FREE ORB T-shirt, the winner will also receive an imaginary heartfelt High- 5!
GAME 1: # 25 Florida State vs. Maryland: HUGE win for the Noles on a 55 yard field goal as time expired last week over Clemson. They'll need to beat Maryland, and get some help to stay in the hunt for the ACC Atlantic. Meanwhile, NOBODY thought the Terps would be in a position to win the ACC Atlantic, and they can do just that with wins over FSU & NC State. Maryland will be wearing special camouflage uniforms in support of the Wounded Warrior Project this weekend and I'm going with them. MARYLAND - 33, FLORIDA STATE - 24.
GAME 2: # 16 Virginia Tech vs. # 24 Miami: Don't forget the Hokies just missed beating Boise by a hair in the season opener before being shocked by James Madison (I know, James Madison?). They've managed to win 8 straight since, and with a win over the Canes, the Hokies would clinch the Coastal Division title and a spot in the ACC Championship game for the fourth time since joining the ACC in 2004. Freshman backup QB Stephen Morris has more than stepped in for injured Jacory Harris, and led Miami to 2 straight impressive wins over Maryland and Georgia Tech. This is a tough one!: VIRGINIA TECH - 28, MIAMI - 21.
GAME 3: # 9 Ohio State vs. # 13 Iowa: The Buckeyes have wreaked havoc since losing to the Badgers four weeks ago, and I believe they will continue to wreak. The Hawkeyes seemed to have lost their swagger since routing the Spartans, barely beating Indiana and losing to Northwestern last week. Havoc at home for Hawkeyes: OHIO STATE - 36, IOWA - 23.
GAME 4: # 8 Nebraska vs. # 19 Texas A&M: You've got to be impressed with the Aggies. They could have folded tent after dropping three straight, but instead they've roared back with four straight wins including drubbing a then # 8 ranked Oklahoma followed by another romp over upstart Baylor. They now host the latest # 8 in Nebraska, who is trying to clinch the Big 12 North. A&M is currently in a 3-way tie for first in the Big 12 South & could win it, but will need help from Kansas & Oklahoma. It could happen. TEXAS A&M - 28, NEBRASKA 23.
GAME 5: Army vs. Notre Dame: Ok, this game doesn't mean much in the scheme of things, but I like it because the Fighting Irish came out of nowhere to stun # 14 Utah, and Army needs this win as a gear up for the Army-Navy classic to follow....plus we have awesome new U.S. Military Academy t-shirts! NOTRE DAME - 28, ARMY - 17.
That's it - send your picks to email@example.com before kickoff to be counted, and GOOD LUCK!
PARTING FYI'S: My record now stands at 26-25 and I've yet to go 5 for 5. One of these weeks I won't bet with my heart and wishful thinking and maybe I'll win!.....Lot's of new Original Retro Brand product starting to pop up on the site - check out the JWilliams & Quad lines, for those who love the look, style, fit & feel of our shirts, but just ain't into chest logo's......this weeks "5 Questions with..." interview features former Arizona Wildcat & NFL Kicker Steve McLaughlin, who is also a successful singer-song writer.

I did not. I was not that brave. Plus, it looked like I would mess stuff up if I started stripping metal away and I wanted to sell them if I couldn't use them. Maybe I should have experimented with one of them... oh well. Next time :)
Has anyone looked at converting the mounts to BNCR or PL. Not a DIY conversion, but through a real lens tech shop?
BTW, I assume that what Clint found for the RED ONe applies to the EPIC/Scarlet as well?????
This is not a lens design problem, it's a money problem.. what you want done is a partial to full rehousing of the lens, to fit your modern camera.
If you can afford it, and you shop enough, there are technicians who can do this. however, it may cost you more than your camera.
RE: B&L selling the lenses originally, they had multiple camera houses as customers... who used to be able to afford machinists and techs who could make the mounts the house needed for their cameras.... that's why you bought "lens heads" VERY few owner operators bought them that way...
Let's also remember that major clients were the military and industrial imaging departments, who had people on SALARY to build mounts...
Update: This is a new adapter that ciecio7 is selling. This may be a valid option. I contacted the seller and he said that the "tube" is 40mm or 1.56" from the lens mount flange "ledge" to the bottom where it attaches to the Scarlet/EPIC. That should at least cover the shorter BNC mount lenses and may just cover the longer BNC mounts.
Now the hurdle will be getting him to send one to RED so that Jarred can give approval. Perhaps some encouragement from potential customers?
The seller has an excellent reputation for mount adapters.
Looks like the tube is wide enough for the BNC's.. seems promising for EPIC/Scarlet users. I don't see how this could work for my RED ONE, though. Let us know if you try it and what your findings are...
Nice update!!
I never understood the desire to put a 50 year old mount lens on a modern camera. Does it give a cool retro look from the old glass? I was using BNCR cameras when I got started as an AC in the early 80's, and they seemed old back then. Granted the Panavision mount is just a variation of the original BNC mount and was basically a Mitchell movement with better glass.
There is a charisma and nostalgia with older glass that some of us desire. It's similar to how some people still desire using old polaroid cameras, not because the photos were super amazing or the engineering was better then, but simply because of nostalgia. For me, it's an aesthetic choice and mostly for artistic pleasure.
There is definitely magic in putting older glass on a super high res electronic camera. I still love my Mark 3 Superspeeds wide open on the Epic. The original Cooke Speed Panchros are very nice too. One of my biggest regrets was passing up a set when a tabletop director friend retired. They were the Century rehoused version, PL mount, nice spread out focus scales in bright yellow, and every single one had been modified for close focus. All actions smooth as butter. $6,500 for the set of six. And he was throwing in a (still lens modified) Zeiss 60 macro! At the time, it was too rich for my blood, plus I figured that it would be a vanity purchase and not a rentable set of lenses. BOY WAS I WRONG.
I was just thinking... the "old glass" conversation reminds me of (my imaginary) line in the sand regarding the Pro-35 adapter.
I would always size up a cameraman as a "video" guy when his comment was "We have such great Fuji and Canon zooms. I don't know why anyone would put that spinning, soft, wobbly piece of glass in front of such a nice sharp camera"
I would always size up a cameraman as a "film" guy when his comment was, "Oh my god that looks amazing! I want to use this all the time!!!"
Probably mine own biases at work, but as cinematographers we walk a line between tech and art. Personally if I am going to lean in one direction, I lean art. I'm not really about counting pixels or line pairs or steps on a grey chart.
I think there are lots of times where we want to use modern glass, and do justice to the person, landscape, or product in front of us.
I think there are some other times where we want to take our image to another place, and vintage glass can be a subtle (or not) method for this.
No right or wrong.

24 April 2012
A Caerphilly county borough scrap metal dealer has been taken to court and fined for failing to produce the correct documentation during a multi-agency stop check scrap metal operation.
Anthony Hunt, of Bryn Owain, Penyrheol, Caerphilly was initially issued with a fixed penalty notice for failing to produce the correct documentation when Environmental Health Enforcement Officers requested information on where the waste he was carrying had come from and where it was being disposed of.
However, through non-payment of the fixed penalty notice, the case was pursued through the courts.
The case was heard on Tuesday 17th April at Caerphilly Magistrates Court. Hunt pleaded guilty to the offence under Section 34 (5) of the Environmental Protection Act 1990. He was fined £180 and ordered to pay a contribution towards prosecution costs of £40.
Rob Hartshorn, Head of Public Protection at Caerphilly County Borough Council said, "We have evidence that some unscrupulous traders sell on the metal, but fly tip the other wastes. We wish to ensure they have the correct documentation and carry out their business in a legal manner".
He continued, "Our Enforcement team will continue to work tirelessly with our colleagues at Gwent Police to tackle this issue".
Caerphilly County Borough Council is also working alongside Gwent Police on a scheme called 'No ID, No Cash', where scrap yards are only accepting scrap from registered collectors with photo-identification.
The council's Licensing Section are producing photo ID cards free of charge for metal collectors.
To apply for a photo ID card, please call 01495 235 039.

George Verberg Scholarship 2010 awarded to FMI graduate Eleanor Kathleen Grootoonk
On Tuesday 18 January last Mr Ton Schroor, the alderman for culture of the city of Groningen, presented the George Verberg Scholarship 2010 to FMI graduate Eleanor Kathleen Grootoonk.The scholarship is a annual incentive prize for professional young artists aimed to stimulate their artistic development. The laureate receives an amount of € 10,000 for a temporary stay in the Baltic States and the Northern Development Axis (Germany, Poland and Scandinavia). The basis of this award is found in the relationship between Gas Union of Groningen and the Russian company of Gazprom, and certainly also in Mr George Verberg's efforts with regard to the construction of the Russian gas pipeline.
The George Verberg Scholarship was created by the city council of Groningen in 2004, on the occasion of George Verberg's retirement as chairman of Dutch Gas Union. Students and recent graduates of the Bachelor course Autonomous Visual Art and the FMI Master course of Minerva Art Academy, a department of Hanze University of Groningen, are welcome to participate.Eleanor Kathleen GrootoonkThe jury has nominated Eleanor Kathleen Grootoonk (1983) as the laureate for 2010. The itinerary that she submitted for the scholarship concerns Sweden. She plans to carry out two months of research in Stockholm in preparation for her journey to the polar circle. She aims to make a stop-motion* film about the Aurora Borealis (northern lights) with the help of the latest HD techniques. Once in every eleven years the northern lights are particularly strong, and the next time this happens will be in 2011. 'The idea is to draw inspiration from conversations that I am planning to have with the local population, and which should result in a modernistic translation of the folklore of the region. What I also have in mind is to write a scenario for an art film with the help of materials that I come across on the spot. The film will be set against the background of the northern lights.'
Presentation of Exoticism by Mina Minov, winner of the prize in 2009In 2009 Mina Minov was awarded the fifth George Verberg Scholarship. He explored the Finnish urban landscape and the islands, visited cities south of Helsinki as well as the Midnight Sun Film Festival, concluding his travels in St Petersburg. The outcome of his stay in Northern Europe will be on display in the CBK Groningen (Visual Art Centre) in the form of his presentation Exoticism, from 19 January to 27 February. The exhibition will be open to the public directly after the presentation of the George Verberg Scholarship 2010. Opening times of the CBK: Wednesday to Friday : 09.00 – 17.00 h.; Saturday and Sunday : 13.00 – 17.00 h. Admission is free.
JuryThe jury of the George Verberg Scholarship 2010 was made up of George Verberg himself, Dorothea van der Meulen (dean of the Minerva Art Academy and chairwoman), Ruud Akse (lecturer FMI Master course), Bernadet ten Hove (lecturer Autonomous Visual Art) and Robin Punt (head of the Autonomous Visual Art course and the FMI Master course). Out of the nine applications received by the jury, four were eventually nominated.
Talent development young artists There is a great number of professional artists in Groningen, but it is only granted to the truly gifted to surpass the level of the motley crowd of colleagues. To achieve this, however, the artists will have to take the initiative, and make themselves heard and seen. In addition, the city council seeks to play a role in spotting and encouraging talented artists. To this end, the municipal cultural memorandum 'Groningen: Cultural City – simply special' involves the so-called New Policy, which aims to support young talents and stimulate a healthy competitive atmosphere. The George Verberg Scholarship is part of this, as well as the Hendrik de Vries Scholarship for literary and visual artists, and the Andrea Elkenbrach Fund for talented musicians.

Basic Search Tips
Search Term Box | Search Selector | Format | Limit by Library
The Basic Search is located at the top of the screen as you navigate through the catalog.
Basic Search is separated into 4 parts to assist patrons in finding material that is relevant to their search.
Type your search terms in this box to find material you are looking for.
There are several search indexes available to assist you in your search as explained below.
Search Selector
The Search selector drop down menu is divided into several subjects.
Keyword— The most simplistic search selector, keyword search looks for terms in any field of the record. The words entered in this searh may show up in fields including title, author, subject, publisher, song title and many more. These types of searches will retrieve large result sets. This type of search is helpful if you don't know the exact title or author of an item. For example, "Goblet Rowling".
Title— A title search finds the terms you enter in the title of an item. For example, "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire".
Author— An author search finds the terms you enter in the author of an item. For example, "J.K. Rowling".
Subject— A subject search finds the terms you enter in the subject of an item. Subjects are categories assigned to items according to a system such as the Library of Congress Subject Headings. For example, "Wizards Fiction"
Series— A series search finds the terms you enter in the title of a multi-part series. For Example "Harry Potter 4" *The Series search is still under development at this time. Thank you for your patience.
Call Number – Finds the call number you enter in the call number of an item.
*The Call Number index in the Basic Search is currently not working. You may use this feature in the Advanced Search page. Thank you for your patience.
Limit your search to a specific format by selecting one of the choices in the Format drop down menu.
Limit your search to items only from your local branch by selecting a location in the KCLS community library drop down menu.
Advanced Search
Search Input | Search Filters | Sort Criteria | Search Library | Advanced Search Tips
Search Input
You may use one or many of the search options simultaneously by selecting them from the search term drop down menu. Additionally, you may limit the results with the Contains, Does not contain and Matches exactly drop down menu. If you would like to add more than three search options select the "ADD SEARCH ROW" button.
Keyword—finds the terms you enter anywhere in the entire record for an item, including title, author, subject, and other information.
Title—finds the terms you enter in the title of an item.
Author—finds the terms you enter in the author of an item.
Subject—finds the terms you enter in the subject of an item. Subjects are categories assigned to items according to a system such as the Library of Congress Subject Headings.
Series—finds the terms you enter in the title of a multi-part series.
Boolean operators such as the, and, or, not, of are not considered special and are searched for just like any other word. There are no "stop" words that are automatically ignored by the search engine.
Wildcard - You may use "*" as a wildcard when it is applied to other letters, for example ca* for cat, cap, car etc. You cannot use "*" by itself.
Search Filters
You can filter your search by Item Type and Language. The Add More Filters creates a more detailed menu to choose from. For each filter type, you may select multiple criteria by holding down the CTRL key as you click on the options. If nothing is selected for a filter, the search will return results as though all options are selected.
Sort Criteria
By default, the search results are in order of greatest to least relevance. In the sort criteria box you may select to order the search results by relevance, title, author, or publication date.
Search Library
If you are using a catalog in a library or accessing a library's online catalog from its homepage, the search will return items for the entire King County Library System. You may change your search to limit to a specific branch by selecting the library from the drop down box.
Limit to Available
Select Limit to Available to view items currently in the branches on the shelves in the collection indicated. Items currently checked-out by other patrons will not be displayed.
Boolean Search terms...
&& use this for AND. If you want elephant AND swiss to show up in your results enter elephant && swiss. Both terms must be present to appear in your search results.
|| (hyphenated vertical symbol above the backslash on the keyboard) use this for OR. If you want elephant OR swiss to show up in your results enter elephant || swiss. Either term must be present to be in your search results.
- use this for NOT. Currently -(aka NOT) only works in subject searches.
Title begins with...
If you change your search from Keyword to Title and wrap your search in "" and use the ^ it will create a title begins with search.
For example, change keyword to title search "^Harry Potter" it will give back only items that have titles that start with Harry Potter.
Left and Right Phrase Anchors
The search must start with this word. ^ use this to left anchor a search. For example title: "^star" means the title must start with star, if the title is The Star it won't find the item. For best results wrap your search in quotes.
The search must end with this word. $ use this to right anchor a search. For example title: "justice$" means the title must end with the word justice. If the title has a subtitle the entire title must end with the word as it is searching the entire title field. For example if the title was Justice: For one and all it wouldn't find this title because the title really ends with "all" not "justice". For best results wrap your search in quotes.

By articulating your company's corporate brand, opportunity, purpose, and growth culture, there is a greater likelihood that you will have an edge on producing—and keeping—leaders who are globally oriented and wise in the ways of business. As such, you must promote the proper educational and talent development measures in your company to prepare for the next wave of change these growing, emerging market economies will bring.
By Frank Waltmann, Ph.D., Head, Corporate Learning, Novartis
The business environment in emerging markets for the next 10 to 20 years will be challenging due to talent shortages and fierce competition for competent, trained employees. A strong leadership brand may be just the elixir as data continues to show talent looks for, and places a high value on, personal and professional growth when choosing where to build a career.

SW HOPE: Feed the Hungry
What is SW HOPE: Feed the Hungry?
Since 2006, each spring Southwest Portland Faith Organizations and Community Partners work together to meet the needs of hungry people in Southwest Portland. In 2013, despite improvements in the economy, the need still continues to be very high.
Click here for the 2013 Brochure!
What is the need?
- Neighborhood House operates the largest food pantry on Portland's west side, currently providing emergency food boxes to approximately 500 families (or 1,200 individuals) each month, up from 270 before the recession hit.
- Through our combined efforts, our goal is to collect 175,000 pounds of food, or the cash equivalent ($1= 5 lbs). This will allow us to feed our hungry neighbors in SW Portland for 3 months (at current usage level).
Your donation matters! A financial contribution makes the biggest impact. Because of our partnership with the Oregon Food Bank, we are able to purchase food at deeply discounted prices, so that every $1 donated equals at least 5 lbs. of food.

Warm and Comfy!
The Crocs lined slippers are comfortable and warm even without socks. Well worth the price I paid although they do seem a bit wide in the toes compared to my other Crocs, Glad I made this purchase!

Great price
I bought 3 pairs of these Bayas, and have bought previous versions with the lining for probably 7 or 8 years. I usually go through 1 1/2 pairs per winter, and I am in North Texas. I usually use one pair for walking the dogs, and after about a mile a day for 4 months, the ridges at the bottom is about gone. The other pair I wear running errands and they lasr 2 winters. Previous versions have a removable lining and so is another current model, but I found that even though you wash the liner and dry them, they do not come back out as fuzzy. So I almost always wear socks. There are versions that I bought that the lining is not removable, like this one, but I put the whole thing in the wash without a problem. But like some reviewers have stated, if you wear the same pair of socks over and over, they do not last.

Great Crocs for the Winter
This is a pair of great Crocs for the winter months. I wear a 1/2 size and was advised by this website to order one size up. The fit varied with the type of socks I wear. If I wear very think dress socks or without any socks, the shoes are quite loose. If I wear a pair of heavy wool sock, the fit is perfect with plenty of toe room to wiggle about. I especially like the relatively thin lining. It's cozy without feeling too hot. I wear this pair mostly indoors and I use the back straps when I walk outside as it is a tad loose with thin socks.

I LOVE them!!! They are so comfortable. The lining does make them a little warm so I'm saving them to wear outside the home. I can't say anything more than I absolutely love them - am even thinking about purchasing a couple more pair.

Cambridge Offers Top Public Schools
Countless families purchase homes in Cambridge MA because of the city's top-rated schools. Home to some of the nation's top universities, it's no surprise that its public schools are at the forefront of technology in the classroom.
First graders at the Cambridgeport School post weekly blogs about things they have learned. Dozens of teachers are able to explore the advantages of Smart boards in the classroom. Keypals is a program at the Kennedy-Longfellow School which links sixth grade students to volunteers at MIT and IBM, for an email-based mentorship designed to help students sharpen their writing skills. Authors and illustrators regularly visit each school to share their work and connect with the students.
Cambridge public schools are made up of 12 schools and one high school. The schools each have their own distinct, unique identity – and parents are free to select their top three choices of schools for their child to attend. For instance, the Baldwin school is home to a renowned music program and offers many programs based in arts and design. Fletcher-Maynard Academy offers an eight-hour school day for students to spend extra time on projects in assorted academic areas. The high school, Cambridge Rindge and Latin, is one of the top public schools in Massachusetts.
There are many reasons to look for a home in Cambridge MA real estate, and the city's cutting-edge public schools is just one of them.

Jtorm: ijTgdalG, N « Y# Rb. 16 11756 sour- ^ An Off cial Newspaper Of The Incorporated Village of Farmingdale - Swing Greater Farmingdale, Bethpage and Melville Vol. 6 No. 35 Second Class Postage has been paid at rarmlagdale. N. Y. llTis Thursday, May 1, 1969 LIBRARY BOARD DECIDES TO GO IT ALONE The Farmingdale Library Board passed a resolution on Tuesday at a special board meeting to hold its own budget vote and trustee election on May 24 instead of the June 11 date set by the school board. The resolution is published in the weekly OBSERVER. Library Board President Robert Callahan said that the course of action was taken because ' we wanted to establish that we are able to decide when to hold the election.' The Board acted on the advice of Attorney Frederic Block, of the law firm of Baranello, Block and Namm, who stated that the Port Jefferson Station and other libraries had taken similar steps to prove their independence ' as a separate corporate body with its own by- laws and rules.' Block went on to say that ' there is a growing tendency for school boards to defer their annual meetings and voting dates because of the complexities of state aid to schools, a problem that does not affect libraries.' ' The problems of the two boards are incompatible,' he said. There is nothing in the law that compels the library board to submit a budget each year, except in the case of the need for additional money, he stated. Callahan stated that a heavy summer library program calls for an earlier vote because of budgetary considerations, as compared to school activities beginning in September. Trustees Carl Gorton and Warren Altmann challenged Block's Mayor Issues Poppy Proclamation opinion as conflicting with that of library and school board attorney Kendrick C. Smith. They also contended that the school boards action in refusing the library boards request for a date change was proper because it was ' impractical, confusing and costly' to hold two separate voting dates. Library Director Orrin B. Dow took exception to the charge. Gorton then went on to question the wisdom of spending over $ 300 for legal fees as costly and unnecessary. Block pointed out that neither board holds supremacy over the other, as attested by the fact that the school board cannot alter a library budget. ' Only the voter has that power,' he said. When the eligibility of new voters was challenged, Board President Robert Callahan said that no registration would be held, and that any qualified voter living in the school district would be eligible to vote. The library budget of $ 394,525 to be raised by taxation calls ( or an estimated tax rate of 41 cents per $ 100 of assessed valuation, up about four cents. In another action, the Board approved the appointment of Mrs. Joan Hafter as a Junior Librarian at $ 8,978 a year. Trustee Altmann's motion to table the request because ' of budgetary considerations,' was defeated. Trustee Gorton also objected because ' he would first like to meet with all professional librarians before hiring.' Annual Spring Concerts Begin In School Joseph Zureck, Mayor of the Incorporated Village of Farmingdale issued a proclamation this week officially recognizing the sale of Buddy Poppies by the Veterans of Foreign Wars during the month of May. Mayor Zureck pointed out that the poppies are assembled by disabled veterans and that the proceeds from this fund- raising campaign are used exclusively for the benefit of needy veterans. " 1 urge all patriotic citizens to wear a Buddy Poppy as evidence of our gratitude to the men who have risked their lives in defense of the freedom which we continue to enjoy as American citizens". Zureck concluded. The Music Departments of the Farmingdale Secondary Schools will present their Annual Spring Concerts this month. Mill Lane Junior High School will present a program on Tuesday evening, May 6. Howitt Junior High School will present their performances in two parts this year. The first on Tuesday, May 13 and the second concert on Wednesday, May 14. Farmingdale High School will offer a performance on Thursday, May 15. On Friday and Saturday, May lfi and 17, Farmingdale Music students will be contesting for individual Solo and Ensemble ratings at the Annual New York State School Music Association Spring Contest to be held at Locust Valley High School. The following weekend, the High School Band and Orchestra and the Howitt String Orchestra will be entering competition at North Shore High School in Glen Head. Dr. Charles W.

The cuts currently being considered are along the lines of the company's historical pattern, in which it undergoes a yearly reshuffling that sometimes results in jobs being cut in some areas at the same time new positions are added in other areas, the source told CNET.
