Support to small-scale irrigation development
Target areas:
Maekel and Debub Regions
Project code:
To improve farmers' water management capacity and increase economic returns through irrigation farming.
Key partners:
Eritrea's Ministry of Agriculture and Ministry of Local Government.
Beneficiaries reached:
815 households (approximately 4 170 people) in three villages in Maekel and Debub Regions.
Activities implemented:
- The project supported the completion of the small-scale irrigation programme initiated under the European Union Food Facility project.
- The installation of a sprinkler irrigation system in Tseazega village (25 hectares), and drip irrigation systems in Azayihe village (51.14 hectares) and Onaforo village (31 hectares) respectively was completed.
- A one-day training on the operation and management of the drip irrigation system was given to members of the Water Users Associations, benefiting 33 and 42 people from Onaforo and Azayihe villages respectively.
- The irrigation schemes should, in the long run, enable beneficiaries in drought-prone Eritrea to produce a minimum of two crops per year during the dry season for consumption and sale, resulting in improved livelihoods.
- The increase in the production of vegetable and crops throughout the year should have a positive impact on market prices.

'Cars 2' features familiar voices
By Bob O'Reilly
Wednesday, July 20, 2011 9:05 AM
Two of the stars of "Cars 2" from Disney/Pixar are Lightning McQueen (voice by Owen Wilson), left, and Mater (voice by Larry the Cable Guy). (Photo ©Disney/Pixar. All Rights Reserved)
Leaving Radiator Springs behind, "Cars 2" finds adventure in European settings.
Far from Route 66 and the scenic Southwestern desert of the United State, Lightning McQueen (Owen Wilson) and Mater (Larry the Cable Guy, a.k.a. Daniel Lawrence Whitney) travel around the world for the Race of Champions.
The popular race is hosted in five different countries. Involved in the events are the assorted champions representing a variety of racing disciplines, including Formula One and rally driving.
The racing events will take participants to Japan, Germany, Italy, France and England.
In Japan, the race starts at Mount Fuji and proceeds towards the busy downtown district of Tokyo itself. In Germany, the race speeds through the historic Black Forest before moving on to Italy where the race resembles the picturesque Monte Carlo Grand Prix. In Paris, some feel the race there takes on the familiar signatures of the world renowned Le Mans. The race concludes in London, showcasing many of London's major landmarks such as Buckingham Palace and the fashionable Mall. In "Cars 2" the statuesque palace guards appear as rugged Land Rovers.
And speaking of Buckingham Palace, not only is the royal residence seen in the finale of the race, but the eye-arresting, gated structure is also the site of climactic scenes for Mater's own "spy" adventure involving a mistaken identity, a British secret agent Finn McMissile (Michael Caine, voice work) and an evolving caper outside the racing events.
"Cars 2" opened nationwide June 24 with impressive initial weekend box-office receipts of over $68 million. The celebrated animated feature-length motion picture became Number One at box offices and is the latest film triumph from the Disney/Pixar collaboration. "Cars 2" is the 12th film from Disney/Pixar with Steve Jobs, founder of Pixar, and, at the helm, John Lasseter.
Lasseter commutes between the Pixar Animation Studios in Emeryville, Calif., near San Francisco, and the Walt Disney Studios in Burbank, Calif., where he serves as head of animation.
At one time, Lasseter himself was employed at Disney as an animation artist. Many who know the awards-bedecked filmmaker agree he closely resembles Walt Disney, the founder of Disney, who also treasured good stories as the springboard to successful motion pictures.
Making his Disney/Pixar co-directing debut with John Lasseter in "Cars 2" is Brad Lewis, producer, along with John Lasseter, of the earlier awards-winning animated blockbuster "Ratatouille," one of our favorites.
"Cars 2" premiered in Hollywood at two of the movie colony's fabled venues, Grauman's Chinese Theatre and Disney's own glittering El Capitan Theatre. The star-studded post-premiere party was hosted a block south of the red-carpeted Hollywood Blvd. on the gated football field of nearby Hollywood High School, the same field used by the late Ricky and David Nelson during their high school days at Hollywood High.
As we've written before, whenever we drive by the famous high school on the corner of Sunset Blvd. and Highland Ave. with the popular animation great Martha Goldman Sigall and her husband Sol in the car, we are serenaded by Sol with Hollywood High's rousing school song. Martha, an authoress and noted pioneer animation artist (Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies), is a 1936 graduate of Hollywood High.
For the post-premiere festivities for "Cars 2" Hollywood High's football field was converted into a 25,000-square-foot World Grand Prix attraction, featuring a Bungee jump and pedal cars. The exhibit from Petersen Automotive Museum, along with many tempting, picture-perfect buffets featuring foods of the five foreign nations represented in the film itself, gave guests an eventful time under the klieg-lighted skies of Hollywood.
Greeting the celebrity guests were Disney president and CEO Bob Iger, Disney chairman Rich Ross and co-directors John Lasseter and Brad Lewis. Among the many cast members in attendance were Owen Wilson (Lightning McQueen), Larry the Cable Guy (Mater), who attended with his wife and two children; and Cheech Marin (voice of a 1959 Chevy Impala). We are told, too, that actress Sheryl Crowe, who was featured in the first "Cars" soundtrack, attended with her young son.
Among the other celebrity voice-over talents featured in "Cars 2" are Bonnie Hunt (Sally), Tony Shalhoub (Luigi), Guido Quaroni (Guido), Lloyd Sherr (Fillmore), Michael Caine (Finn McMissile), Emily Mortimer (Holley Shiftwell), Jason Isaacs (Siddeley and Leland Turbo), Eddie Izzard (Miles Axelrod), John Turturro (Francesco Bernoulli), Lewis Hamilton (Lewis Hamilton), Jeff Gordon (Jeff Gorvett), Darrell Waltrip (Darrell Cartrip), David Hobbs (David Hobbscap), Brent Musburger (Brent Mustangburger), John Lasseter (John Lasetire), Tomas Kretschmann (Prof. Z.), Joe Mantegna (Grem), Peter Jacobson (Acer), Franco Nero (Uncle Topolino), Vanessa Redgrave (Mama Topolino and the Queen), Michel Michelis (Tomber), Sig Hansen (Crabby), Cheech Marin (Ramone) and Katherine Helmond (Lizzie).
Disney/Pixar's "Cars 2" is the third Pixar feature in its 25-year history to be presented in 3-D as well as in 2-D. The other two are "Up" and "Toy Story 3."
Pixar has earned more than $6.5 billion since 1986 when Apple's Steve Jobs purchased the computer-graphics division of Lucasfilm Ltd. for $10 million. The new studio shaped by Steve Jobs, John Lasseter and Ed Catmull, was named "Pixar." Five years ago The Walt Disney Studios bought Pixar for $7.4 billion.
John Lasseter made his feature directorial debut in 1995 with "Toy Story," the first feature-length computer animated film. He has also directed "A Bug's Life," Toy Story 2" and "Cars." The original story for "Cars 2" is by John Lasseter, as well. Movies on which Lasseter has worked have won a combined 29 Academy Awards.
Rated G, "Cars 2" from Disney/Pixar is now showing in area theaters.

The Taiwanese hardware manufacturer InWin hit CES 2014 with a slew of new items to announce, and the official availability of one announced a couple of months prior to the show. The story of InWin's CES 2014 announcement really centered on a single theme: Tempered Glass. Benchmark Reviews stopped by InWin's booth at CES 2014 to talk about their new cases and to take a look at some other products you might not normally expect from InWin.

Turner Classic Movies (TCM) will show The King's Vacation on Friday, November 14 at 6:00 AM EST. The cast includes Dick Powell, Patricia Ellis, and Florence Arliss (Mrs. George Arliss). The film was based on an original story written specifically for Mr. A by Ernest Pascal. See the listings on the right to locate our special post on this film.
Arliss Alert! THE HOUSE OF ROTHSCHILD on TCM 9/23 @ 8 PM Eastern Time
George Arliss returns to the air in prime time. This Tuesday, September 23, Turner Classic Movies (TCM) is showing THE HOUSE OF ROTHSCHILD at 8 PM, eastern time. Better yet, the finale is being shown in its original Technicolor glory! Better not miss this one.
Mr. A as Meyer Rothschild in the film's prologue:
Boris Karloff as the antisemitic Prussian Count Ledranz:
Loretta Young as Julie and Mr. A as her father, Nathan Rothschild:
A Technicolor frame capture with Loretta Young and Robert Young:
Another frame cap from the Technicolor finale, Florence Arliss and Mr. A:
Happy 4th of July from George Arliss (as Alexander Hamilton) and Alan Mowbray (as George Washington)!
THE DEVIL (1920) Returns!
THE DEVIL has the distinction of being two "Firsts" for George Arliss. In 1908, it became his first starring play, then twelve years later the story was his first motion picture. Mr. A's six silent films collectively serve as a "dress rehearsal" for his later sound film successes but, alas, only two of the silents appeared to have survived: THE GREEN GODDESS (1923) and TWENTY DOLLARS A WEEK (1924). Then a sole 35mm print of THE DEVIL was found in Canada by a gentleman named Larry Smith, who generously donated the film to the Library of Congress (LOC) where it has been copied and preserved. Recently, Larry uploaded THE DEVIL to Youtube and thus returned this long-lost Arliss feature to general circulation for the first time in over 90 years!
These images are screen caps from the Youtube upload of THE DEVIL, and as a result are low resolution. Your blogmeister has viewed a 35mm copy at the LOC and can assure you that the image quality is excellent.
Mr. A as the "helpful" Dr. Muller adroitly plants all sorts of carnal temptations in the thoughts of his friends.
A young Edmund Lowe seem skeptical of the good doctor's advice. Lowe would become a popular silent screen star during the 1920s and successfully transitioned to talkies in the 1930s.
Florence Arliss (Mrs. A) also played a role as the aunt of the heroine.
Lucy Cotton and Edmund Lowe as the lovers
Dr. Muller has his own plans for the lady and they're not honorable.
As powerful as the Devil is, there's Someone who is stronger.
The Devil goes to Hell-literally.
Hopefully, by now you'd like to see THE DEVIL so here's the Youtube link. Enjoy!
CARDINAL RICHELIEU (1935) – First Time on DVD!
Twentieth Century-Fox has just released on DVD the classic George Arliss costume film, CARDINAL RICHELIEU. This makes the fifth Arliss film to receive an official studio home video release:
These are screen captures of the main titles – quite a line up of talent both in front of and behind the cameras:

Arliss Alert! A SUCCESSFUL CALAMITY (1932) – TCM Thursday, March 20th @ 6:45AM ET
Arliss Alert! DISRAELI is Back!!! TCM on Sunday Feb 16 @ 4:00 AM ET
It's the start of Academy Award Season so naturally Mr. A's 1929 Oscar winner is one of the first films honored by Turner Classic Movies (TCM). DISRAELI is not yet available on DVD so be sure to set your tivo, vcr, or whatever you use for time-shifting so you don't miss it. See George Arliss and the famous Arliss Stock Company including 19th century players such as Florence Arliss, Ivan Simpson, David Torrence, and Charles Evans. Youngsters include a 19 year old Joan Bennett.
Actor-sculptor Ivan Simpson puts the finishing touches on his bust of Mr. A as Disraeli. Mr. Simpson plays the financier Hugh Myers in the movie:

New Arliss Film on DVD! THE WORKING MAN with Bette Davis
If your blogmeister had to name only one George Arliss film to somebody who had never seen any, unquestionably that film would be THE WORKING MAN (1933). Never before available on home video, Warners Archive just released this clever comedy on DVD and remastered the film to help make it look brand new!
THE WORKING MAN was made at the height of the Great Depression when, under the circumstances, it was popular to attack Capitalism and America's free market economy. But this film shows how Capitalism can be fun and how the free market creates new jobs:
Mr. A plays a shoe manufacturing tycoon who sees his chance to take over a rival's business. Complications ensue and Mr. A ends up competing with his own company.
Romance also ensues as Bette teaches Mr. A's stuffy young nephew a few lessons in love:
The film's back story is even better: Mr. A discovered Bette and launched her successful film career. See it all happen in THE WORKING MAN:

|Giants activate Ortiz from DL and put him in bullpen
|Written by Admin
|Monday, 21 May 2007 16:32
Ortiz, the right-hander who began the season as the team's fifth starter, returned after being sidelined since May 2 with an irritated nerve in his pitching elbow. Hard-throwing rookie Tim Lincecum took his spot in the rotation and has done plenty to keep his job.
Manager Bruce Bochy plans to use Ortiz in a variety of roles in the bullpen.
``It will be an adjustment,'' Bochy said. ``We'll see how he bounces back.''
The Giants optioned left-hander Jonathan Sanchez to Triple-A Fresno so he can get more work. While the team initially said it was grooming Sanchez as a starter, he has worked only in relief this season and San Francisco plans to keep it that way through 2007.
Sanchez went 1-1 with a 5.52 ERA in 14 appearances totaling 14 2-3 innings this season. The Giants want him to pitch a couple of innings every two to three days, hoping he will improve by pitching on a consistent basis.
``He just needs work,'' Bochy said. ``This kid is going to have a nice major league career. I think it's the best thing for Sanchy and he'll benefit from it. I think he's lost command of his off-speed pitches. He's got great stuff. This kid is going to get back up here and probably won't see the minor leagues again. That's how good this kid is.''
Ortiz earned another chance to be a starter after an awful 2006 when he signed on for a second stint with the Giants in January.
He had many ups and downs since leaving the Giants after the 2002 season, when he walked off the mound eight outs away from a World Series title only to see the bullpen blow a five-run lead in Game 6 and the wild-card Angels go on to win the seventh game, too.
He was traded to Atlanta in December 2002, followed by 36 wins and a pair of division titles in two seasons. After parlaying that into a $33 million, four-year contract with Arizona, little went right.
He went 5-11 in his first season with the Diamondbacks before everything fell apart last year in an 0-8 campaign, a release from Arizona and recommendations that he should call it a career.
He was winless in 26 outings, including 11 starts, overall last year for the Diamondbacks and Baltimore Orioles, who dropped him out of their rotation in July.

This is a continuation of application Ser. No. 033,235 filed Apr. 25, 1979, now abandoned.
The present invention relates to spectrometer apparatus for separating light radiation into a plurality of spectral bands and, more particularly, to a dispersive optical spectrometer for efficiently dispersing spectral radiation for performing multielement spectral analysis.
Optical spectrometers have been known for quite some time. These devices are based on a dispersive element, which may be a prism or a diffraction grating, such as a plane or concave diffraction grating. A typical conventional optical arrangement, such as an Ebert or Czerny-Turner mounting, is comprised of the following components: (1) a single entrance aperture to admit radiation, (2) a collimating component to render the admitted radiation into a parallel bundle of rays, (3) a dispersion device such as a prism or diffraction grating, (4) a focusing component to focus the dispersed radiation as images along the plane known as the focal plane, and (5) detection means upon which the dispersed spectrum is focused and which is some manner transduces the optical information striking it into some usable form. In systems which employ a concave diffraction grating, the collimating and focusing components are unnecessary.
Various types of detectors may be used, such as, for example, film, photodiode circuits or optoelectronic multichannel vidicon detectors. One such vidicon may be an optical multichannel analyzer (OMA) coupled wih a silicon intensified target (SIT) detector described in catalog number T388-15M-5/78-CP published by Princeton Applied Research Corp., Princeton, N.J.
These dispersive optical spectrometers employ a single entrance aperture so that the spectral information is dispersed in the exit focal plane as a single band of radiation along a single direction of dispersion, for example a single horizontal band of radiation. With this arrangement, the position of the various radiational components along the focal plane defines the wave length of the various radiational components which may be present.
This optical arrangement is perfectly satisfactory for use with photographic detection because the photographic plates may be fabricated in lengths sufficient to cover the spectral region of interest, from the ultraviolet to the near infrared. The advent of optoelectronic detectors, such as the vidicon and other electronic image detectors, has demonstrated that these devices offer some distinct advantages for the spatial detection of dispersed radiation. Their major limitation at present seems to be the limited amount of dispersed spectral information which can be simultaneously imaged on the image or light detector. When such detectors are used with a conventional dispersive spectrometer as described above, only a limited spectral region can be accessed by the image detector simultaneously. This limited spectral region, or window, is defined by:
W=Rd D (1)
where W is the extent of spectral region or the window width, Rd is the reciprocal linear dispersion of the spectrometer and D is the diameter of the light sensitive face plate of the image tube. Thus the window width may be increased by either increasing Rd or D. Because of the nature of the image detectors, the prospect for increasing D is remote. If Rd is increased, by changing the focal length of the collimator/focusing elements or by employing a more coarsely ruled diffraction grating, more spectral information may be compressed across the face plate of the image detector. However, this modification results in poorer resolution.
The resolution of the system determines how close any two spectral components may be and still be recognized as separate, distinct spectral components. Thus, the use of an image detector with a conventional single aperture dispersive spectrometer results in a compromise between window widths and resolution. For atomic spectroscopy one should ideally cover the entire spectral region of interest from the ultraviolet to the near infrared at high resolution to cover the maximum spectral region under conditions where as many as possible of these spectral components are recognizable as distinct, separate spectral components which do not overlap adjacent spectral components.
To overcome this limitation of conventional one-dimensional dispersive systems, an optical arrangement known as an echelle system has been employed in conjunction with image detectors. Such systems use a specially, more coarsely ruled grating, known as an echelle grating, in order to provide high dispersion. In addition to the echelle grating, another dispersing device such as a prism is arranged to disperse the radiation orthogonal to the direction of dispersion of the echelle grating. Such a crossed dispersion optical arrangement results in a two-dimensional array of spectral information because the prism disperses all the various diffraction orders produced by the echelle grating. This system, however, employes complex optics and does not display the spectrum in parallel bands. Furthermore, the bands are nonuniform in size which makes detection difficult and inefficient since large portions of the target are not utilized. Also, separation between parallel bands is not uniform. Resolution also varies across the spectrum in this type of system. In order to utilize the optoelectronic detector apparatus, the nonparallel display of bands calls for a complex computer controlled detector system and constitutes an inherently inefficient use of the two-dimensional vidicon target. This system also is notorious for its high stray light levels, a direct result of the optical design and configuration.
It is, accordingly, an objective of this invention to provide an apparatus for separating light radiation into its component spectral bands in such a way that the dispersed radiational components may be more efficiently arranged and focused on an image detector than has heretofore been accomplished with conventional one-dimensional dispersive optical spectrometers.
It is another objective of this invention to provide an apparatus for separating light radiation into its component spectral bands which has greater operational flexibility to permit various adjustments tailored to the particular analysis being performed in order to obtain more accurate information.
Additional objectives and advantages of the invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be apparent from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. The objectives and advantages of the invention may be realized and attained by means of the instrumentalities and combinations particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
To achieve the foregoing objectives, and in accordance with the purpose of the invention, as embodied and broadly described herein, there is provided a dispersive optical spectrometer comprising radiation detection means, dispersion means for separating radiation into spectral components and for directing the spectral components toward the detection means, means for admitting radiation into an entrance focal plane and for directing the radiation toward the dispersion means, the radiation admitting means including a plurality of spaced apart apertures, and transmission means for transmitting radiation from a radiation source to one or more of the apertures.
Further, the plurality of apertures of the light radiation admitting means may be spaced apart in a direction parallel to the direction of dispersion of the dispersion means. The dispersive optical spectrometer may also include means for rendering selected ones of the aperture's opaque; or means for varying the size of at least one of the apertures or filter means optically operative with the light transmission means to modify the effect of at least a portion of the light radiation or any combination of these means. It is also contemplated that the light transmission means may comprise at least one fiber optic light guide.
The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification, illustrate embodiments of the invention and, together with the description, serve to explain the principles of the invention.
In the drawings:
FIG. 1 is a plan view of one embodiment of a dispersive optical spectrometer constructed in accordance with the teachings of this invention.
FIG. 2 is a schematic illustration of the path of light radiation from the multiple entrance aperture assembly to the dispersion means.
FIG. 3 is a schematic plan view of the multiple entrance aperture assembly of FIG. 2 and further illustrating a light source and light transmission means.

FIG. 5 is a schematic rear view of the multiple entrance aperture assembly of FIG. 4.
FIG. 6 is a schematic perspective illustration of a dispersive optical spectrometer constructed in accordance with the teachings of this invention.
Reference will now be made in detail to preferred embodiments of the invention, which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
Referring to the drawings, and more particularly to FIG. 1, there is illustrated a dispersive optical spectrometer 10 formed in accordance with this invention. The spectrometer 10 includes conventional optical elements including dispersion means, such as a diffraction grating 12, means for directing the spectral components emanating from the diffraction grating 12, such as a focusing mirror 14, a direction mirror 16 and means, such as mirror 18, for collimating and directing admitted light radiation toward the diffraction grating 12.
Light detection means 20 is mounted in the spectrometer exit focal plane 22. The light detection means can be any image or array detector such as photosensitive film, a photodiode circuit, a rear illuminated screen or the target of an optoelectronic detector coupled to an optical multichannel analyzer. The latter may be, for example, of the type previously noted as described in Princeton Applied Research Corporation catalog number T388-15-M-5/78-CP. The analyzer is connected to a display device such as an oscilloscope which provides a visual readout in the form of, for example, a display of radiation intensity vs. wavelength, to enable multielement analysis.
In accordance with this invention, there is also provided means for admitting light radiation to the entrance focal plane 24 and for directing the light radiation toward the dispersion means. As embodied herein the means 26 for admitting light radiation into the entrance focal plane 24 includes a plurality of spaced apart apertures 28 which can be formed in a multiple entrance aperture assembly 30 mounted in the entrance port 32 of the optical spectrometer 10.
The use of a series of multiple entrance apertures 28 is capable of providing composite wide band spectrum information. Each entrance aperture 28 will admit light independently of the others and each will independently satisfy the well-known grating equation.
mλ=d(sin α�sin β) (2)
where m is the diffraction order, λ is the wave length of dispersed radiation, d is the grating spacing, α is the angle of incidence measured with respect to the grating normal and β is the angle of diffraction with respect to the grating normal. The angle β determines the position of focus for a given spectral component of wave length λ for a given angle of incidence α in the first order. When multiple entrance apertures are employed, it is clear from the above equation that for a given angle β each entrance aperture will independently satisfy the equation. Since each aperture occurs at a different position in the entrance focal plane 24, the corresponding radiation from each aperture will have a different angle of incidence α with the grating 12 as is shown in FIG. 2. The grating 12 of course separates the incident radiation into spectral components or bands and the focusing mirror 14 focuses the spectral band covering a defined spectral window onto the light detection means 20.
Thus each entrance aperture 28 will independently focus its own spectrum onto the light sensitive portion or target of the light detection means 20 and each spectrum will be displaced from the others in accordance with the above equation (2) by the displacement of the entrance apertures in the entrance focal plane 24. When the multiple entrance apertures are arranged in a direction parallel to the direction of dispersion of the dispersion means or grating 12, such as horizontally, and when several apertures are employed simultaneously, a series of overlapping spectra are imaged on the light sensitive surface of the light detection means 20. With this arrangement, the resolution achievable depends upon the grating characteristics and the resolution (modulation transfer function) of the light detection means, but not on the displacement between adjacent entrance apertures 28. In this way, the resolution achieved is not limited by how closely the adjacent entrance apertures may be placed with respect to one another.
Further, in accordance with the invention, and as shown in FIG. 3, light transmission means 34 are provided to transmit light radiation from a light source 36 to one or more of the apertures 28. Due to the optical difficulties presented when illuminating multiple entrance apertures simultaneously from a single course, fiber optic light guides 34 satisfactorily convey the light radiation from the light source 36 to the individual apertures 28. While the use of fiber optic light guides is convenient, their use is not essential to the multiple aperture concept as other optical arrangements, which could accomplish this light transmission, are possible.
In order to improve the light gathering ability of each fiber optic light guide 34, a light-collecting (input) lens 38 can be fitted onto the input end 40 of each light guide 34. The use of fiber optic light guides also permits greater flexibility of use and tailoring of the spectrometer 10 to the particular needs at the moment. For example, the use of individual fiber optic light guides permits individual adjustment to examine major, minor and trace elements in the multielement specimen being examined. Intense emission radiation striking the detection means 20 may be attenuated or avoided through the use of variable neutral density filters or narrow band pass filters 42 which may be employed with a particular fiber optic guide 34 without simultaneously attenuating the intensities for all elements.
Further in accordance with the invention, the multiple entrance aperture assembly 30 may also include means for varying the size of the apertures 28. As here embodied, and as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the apertures may be masked from behind the aperture assembly 30 by a light shutter formed of a pair of plates 44, 46 which together form an entrance slit 48 of the desired width. While the width dimension may vary depending upon the particular spectrometer and the use to which it will be put, it has been found that typically the slit width can be from approximately 10 micrometers to approximately 1 millimeter. The plates 44, 46 may include means for enabling adjustment of the slit width, such as slots 50 which, together with fastening means, for example bolts 52, permit adjustment of the dimensions of the slit 48.
One reason for varying the slit width would be to attenuate or otherwise modify the emission radiation striking the light detection means or to totally render the aperture 28 opaque. In situations where less than all of the apertures are used simultaneously, other means can be utilized to render the apertures opaque, such as opaque plugs 54 which can be selectively inserted in the apertures as shown in FIG. 3.
In one particular illustrative embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, a plurality of light collecting lenses 38 are mounted on a vertically slotted plate 60 adjacent to the burner head 62 of a flame excitation source 64. The input end of each of the fiber optic light guides 34 is fitted onto a lens 38. The other end, or exit end, of the light guide is adapted to be "plugged," like telephone jacks into a switchboard, into a multiple entrance aperture assembly 30. In one example, the apertures were 1.588 millimeters in diameter spaced on 4 millimeter centers and 29 horizontally aligned apertures were formed across a 12 centimeter entrance port. Each aperture was masked from behind to form an entrance slit 1.6 millimeters high and 100 micrometers wide. The vertical position of the multiple entrance aperture assembly 30 was adjusted to that height which produced a maximum signal at the light detection means 20.
The light detection means utilized consisted of a silicon intensified target (SIT) vidicon detector and an optical multichannel analyzer. The multichannel analyzer accumulated spectral information in 500 electronic channels and had two separate memories that permitted the storage of a data spectrum and a blank spectrum. An arithmetic unit permitted channel by channel subtraction of the memories.
The diffraction grating utilized produced a reciprocal linear dispersion of 3.2 nanometer/millimeter. Each separate entrance slit imaged a 40 nanometer spectral window on the 13 millimeter SIT detector face plate. Since the entrance slits 48 were placed over a 12 centimeter segment of the entrance focal plane, any wave length within a range of 384 nanometers could be imaged on the detector. By employing several entrance slits simultaneously, widely separated spectral lines of interest were able to be simultaneously imaged on the detector with adequate resolution.
Mounting of the lenses 38 on the vertically slotted plate 60 permitted individual vertical adjustment of the lenses from 3 to 40 millimeters above the burner head 62 of the flame excitation source 64.
In operation of the embodiment illustrated in the drawings, light radiation from a light source 36 is transmitted to the multiple entrance aperture assembly 30 by the light guides 34. One or more light guides 34 are plugged into the appropriate number of apertures 28, the particular apertures used being determined by the particular analysis involved. Those apertures not in use are closed by plugs 54 or other suitable means.
The light radiation admitted to the apertures 28 at the spectrometer entrance focal plane 24 is directed toward the collimating mirror 18 and redirected toward the dispersion means 12 for separation into spectral components. As shown in FIG. 2, and referring to the endmost apertures 28A and 28B, the paths of radiation passing through the aperture slits 48A and 48B respectively are shown by the dotted lines r1 -r2 and dashed lines r3 -r4.
The light radiation impinging on the dispersion means or, in the embodiment illustrated, the diffraction grating 12, is separated into its spectral components in accordance with the angle at which the radiation is incident upon the diffraction grating. It is apparent in FIG. 2 that the radiation passing through slits 48A and 48B interacts with the diffraction grating 12 as different angles of incidence αA and αB.
The radiation leaving the diffraction grating 12 is focused on the light detector 20 by the focusing mirror 14 and the direction mirror 16. The spectral components included in the radiation focused on the detector 20 from slit 48A will span a different range of wavelengths than the radiation focused on the detector 20 from the slit 48B. Each of the apertures 28 accounts for a particular spectral window.
Use of the fiber optics switchboard system as illustrated in FIG. 6 offers several important advantages for simultaneous multielement analysis by optical spectroscopy. Since a line of any given wave length may be imaged on the light detection means 20 from any of several entrance slit positions, spectral lines may be moved across the light detection means target in such a way as to avoid potential spectral interferences as well as regions of intense, unwanted background which could result in detector saturation and blooming.
In addition, analytical lines may be selected on the basis of spectrochemical considerations, since any line within a 384 nanometer region may be accessed. Thus, in contrast to earlier one-dimensional systems, primary resonance lines normally used in analytical work may be employed rather than less satisfactory emission lines which happen to fall in a certain restricted wavelength window.
Another important advantage of the switchboard system described herein is that the problems normally associated with the simultaneous determination of major, minor and trace elements in a single sample can be ameliorated. The presence of intense emission from major analyte species which often results in target blooming in conventional single entrance slit systems may be avoided with the multiple entrance aperture approach through the use of filters 42, selection of different apertures 28 as the working apertures, or by varying the size of the entrance slits 48. Thus the dispersive optical spectrometer of this invention offers many of the individual adjustment features of the direct reading spectrometer with the added advantages of compactness flexibility to monitor different combinations of analytical lines and the ability to monitor background adjacent to a spectral line.
That the input end of the light guides 34 can be moved to different positions relative to the light source to selectively gather particular radiation desired for analysis is an advantage, particularly in that the input to several light guides can be compared. The individual observation height adjustment of each light transmission means is possible thereby reducing the severity of the compromise conditions required for a simultaneous multielement analysis by eliminating observation height as a factor.
The apparatus of this invention as herein described constitutes a new type of optical spectrometer which also may be described as a multiple entrance aperture vidicon spectrometer. The spectrometer is specifically designed to operate with optoelectronic multichannel detectors. Since the optics of the system are extremely simple, economical and reliable operation is readily realized.
While the invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to preferred embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the above and other changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.

Title: Plant with dark black/purple berries in a cluster
Answered by: Nan Hampton
QUESTION:Today at our local dog park we noticed a bush/vine that's been growing up the fence is producing berries. It didn't flower at all. The berries look to have started out green and now are changing to a dark almost black/purple. They are in a small cluster of about 7-10 together. I popped one and inside is a big seed and a bright green liquid. The stem is a little fuzzy. The leaves are very soft and silky but not shiny. The leaves are also slightly pointed at the end. Can take a picture if this will help. Just let me know. We'd like to know what it is and if it's poisonous if the dogs should the eat any. Please answer back and thank you.
Below are five suggestions of vines native to Kansas for the identification of your plant. Only the first is reported to be toxic. Hopefully, what you found is one of the non-toxic plants so that you don't have to worry about your dog eating the fruits.
The fruits of Menispermum canadense (Common moonseed) are reportedly highly toxic according to the Poisonous Plants of North Carolina. Here are more photos and information from the Herbarium at University of Wisconsin-Green Bay.
There are two species of Smilax:
Smilax herbacea (Smooth carrionflower) and here are more photos and information from the Plant Diversity Website at the University of Michigan.
Smilax lasioneura (Blue ridge carrionflower) and here are more photos and information from the Plant Diversity Website at the University of Michigan and from the Freckman Herbarium at the University of Wisconsin.
Smilax herbacea is on the "Plants Non-Toxic to Dogs" list on the ASPCA Toxic and Non-Toxic Plant List - Dogs. Smilax lasioneura is not on either the "Plants Toxic..." or "Plants Non-Toxic..." lists.
There are two grape species:
Vitis riparia (Riverbank grape) and here are more photos and information from the Herbarium at University of Wisconsin-Green Bay.
Vitis vulpina (Frost grape) and here are more photos and information from Duke University.
Neither of the Vitis species occurs on any toxic plant list that I could find.
If none of these are the vine you saw, please visit the Plant Identification page to find links to several plant identification forums that will accept photos of plants for identification.

Keys attends first Sundance as producer, composer
AP Entertainment Writer
PARK CITY, Utah (AP) - It's a busy week for Alicia Keys.
The singer-songwriter is set to perform at three events during Barack Obama's presidential inauguration on Monday. She'll sing the National Anthem at the Super Bowl on Feb. 3. And meanwhile, she popped over to Park City, Utah, to debut her first film as executive producer and composer.
The 32-year-old entertainer is attending her first Sundance Film Festival to support "The Inevitable Defeat of Mister and Pete," which premiered Friday. Directed by George Tillman, Jr., the film tells the story of two young boys who survive the streets of Brooklyn on their own.
"It's great because I love being part of bringing stories that you wouldn't often hear to the world," she said. "The fact that it was in my hometown- New York- that felt really good. The most important thing for me is that it looked and was so authentic."
This was Keys' first experience creating a film score, and she found the process enlightening.
"I think it really expanded me because it's a beautiful collaborative process," she said. "Being able to collaborate with (director) George (Tillman, Jr.), and he has such a cool feeling about music and is specific about how it related to each scene, and that was really interesting. There were some pieces that came really naturally to me and others that I had to kind of think more of how does that feel, what should that feel like?"
While she's thrilled to experience her first Sundance festival, Keys confessed she's constantly thinking about her Super Bowl performance.
"I'm really excited about it, I can't even lie," she said with a smile. "I have to rehearse it totally, as if it's a brand new song, because it is actually a brand new song in the style that I'll deliver it. I'm actually rehearsing it like a maniac."

- Studio: Indican Pictures
- Release Date: Jun 2, 2004
- Summary: A best-selling author for 30 years, Carlos Castaneda inspired millions to break free from social dogma, fueling controversy over his work's authenticity and assertions of perceiving non-ordinary reality. Genius, guru, cult leader or fraud? No one really knows. Over three years in the making, this shocking expose explores Castaneda's mythic impact and controversial teachings. Candid interviews backed with dazzling experimental footage offer and intense visual and intellectual experience. (Indican Pictures)… Collapse
- Director: Ralph Torjan
- Genre(s): Documentary
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 0 out of 8
Mixed: 6 out of 8
Negative: 2 out of 8
Though interviews here are primarily with former camp followers and pic was made by one, overall perspective is just critical enough to satisfy both New Age types and curious skeptics.
Does little to unravel the riddle of the title. Unless you are already a fan of Castaneda, the film is likely to leave you feeling as though you've just watched a very long, lost episode of that old TV series "In Search of ..."
It becomes hard to tell just what Castaneda was advocating, apart from the liberal use of psychedelic drugs.
The obvious, cliché-ridden visual style of this probe into the life, work and legacy of Carlos Castaneda ends up working very much against its subject.
If only there were drugs strong enough to make it all bearable: This never ending Learning Annex K-hole provides damning proof that independent film distribution has grown far too accessible.

My Son Bought This Birthday Card for His Cousin

For whatever reason, my friend Shea always finds the best (or worst depending on your point of view) that Walmart has to offer. On her last visit, she was lucky enough to experience a gentleman hoisting his foot up on the same conveyor belt she was loading her groceries on
We 'adopted' a kitten several months ago. I'm not really a cat person. It lives outside. I feed and water it multiple times a day. It a pretty good cat. I took a quick video of the cat doing something I have never seen IN MY LIFE.
Whether this playful beluga whale was just making funny faces or opening his mouth trying to eat the kids through the glass, the reaction of these two children is funny and priceless.
I saw this Vine post in a friend's Twitter feed and have been infatuated ever since with how much fun this would be if we could pull together a team and get this new sport going!
I found a most interesting video on Youtube. Dan Collins from our sister station 'Kickin' Country 100.5 in Sioux Falls, SD put a Wal-Mart Ice Cream Sandwich to a melt test.
Well, it's official, I have arrived at the age of accountability. I don't mean accountability for my actions, I mean for my appearance. I have to thank my wife for leading the charge.
My wife and her sisters were invited over to their grandparents house last weekend to "go through" a few things. Her grandparents are moving and wanted the girls to get a few things they wanted. The one item that Granny sent to me made me laugh.
Kimberly Madison let the world know today that she has come to terms with the fact that she is almost 40 years old. The calm came, she said, when she made a purchase from TJ Maxx late last week.
I met my wife in the grocery store parking lot last Thursday afternoon. She had been in the store already and had a few items. She had a few errands to run and wanted me to grab the groceries and take the "cold stuff" home.

Indiana will begin its 112th season today against Stony Brook. Here's what to watch for.
Hello, Cody: Cody Zeller makes his debut for the Hoosiers. He was named to the 12-player Wayman Tisdale Award Preseason Watch List, honoring the nation's top freshmen. Expect Indiana to work the ball inside to the 6-foot-11 forward early and often.
Hulls taking charge: Jordan Hulls emerged as a leader for IU last season. He finished the season averaging 11 points per game. Expect that to carry over this season.
Sheehey to the hoop: Will Sheehey worked on being more aggressive in the offseason. Expect the sophomore to play a larger role in the offense.
Season prediction: Indiana has won 6, 10 and 12 games in Tom Crean's first season. This year, they finish over .500. A 17-win season is a possibility.

No, that isn't suitable.
