"Lagos the Noble Hare" is an original mixed media painting/drawing by
Karon Melillo DeVega c.2009
my study of the fantastic artist
Ursula Vernon's fabulous work which she titled "Rabbit Tile" Sometimes when I discover an artist I admire and aspire to learn their technique, I will complete a work based on that artist's vision. This is one of my favourites and I learned so much while working on this piece, with new combinations of materials, layering the work beginning from the background and working my way forward, i think it has tremendous dimensional qualities and combining the watercolours, prismacolors and pigment inks truly gives this piece fantastic impact

KVD cranks out another victory
Updated: June 25, 2007, 11:49 AM ET
By Steve Wright | ESPNOutdoors.com
GROVE, Okla. A seven-ounce lead over the Tiger Woods of bass fishing going into Sunday simply wasn't enough for Jeff Kriet. And once again Kevin VanDam proved why it's appropriate to associate his name with the dominant golfer on the PGA tour.
VanDam weighed a five-bass limit of 18 pounds, 12 ounces Sunday to jump past Kriet and win the $100,000 first-place prize in the Bassmaster Elite Series Sooner Run presented by Longhorn Moist Snuff.
Grand Lake wasn't nearly as productive ...

This program will continue the growth of LI's first orphan care program designed to give orphans food, shelter and skills training in Northern Nigeria. Instead of Orphans being abandoned on the street, left to fend for themselves or if they are lucky government housing where they will not receive an education, this program will partner orphans with willing business leaders to provide them with a home, food to eat and skills training so they can fend for themselves and their family one day.
What is the issue, problem, or challenge?
This program will give Orphans a home with willing families who can afford to house, cloth and feed them while through a rigorous application phase find them mentors willing to teach them in a trade so they can one day hold down jobs. The problem of Orphans being left to fend for themselves with little hope and often faced with death unless they turn to crime will begin to be solved by creating an avenue and example of how community leaders can transform these individuals into leaders.
How will this project solve this problem?
Leadership Initiatives will create a pilot program with 24 volunteer businesses who are willing to house, feed and cloth an orphaned family often consisting of two or more siblings. These children will then go to school and when they come of age will then be trained in a skilled job by their foster parents. Leadership Initiatives in conjunction with the Nigerian government will monitor these families to make sure each child is receiving the best possible care so they will have a future.
Potential Long Term Impact
Develop independent profit-generating businesses that serve as models for growth in surrounding communities. Project beneficiaries fill voids in the local economy while improving their families' health, education and financial stability. Previous leaders have sent their brothers, sisters and children to school, helped invest in new businesses within the community, offered new services to community members such as the disabled, establishing infrastructure for the future growth of Nigeria.
Funding Information
This project has been retired and is no longer accepting donations.
Microproject Disclaimer
Every microproject is intended to use the donations it receives in accordance with its stated description; however, it is important to provide project leaders with the flexibility to maximize the potential benefit from the donations they receive. This means that your donation may be used as a part of the main project that supports this microproject, specifically Create 150 Jobs in two years in Northern Nigeria. In this event, the project leader is required to post an update to the microproject detailing the results and reasons behind this change.
If you or any other donor is unhappy with the way their funds have been used, he or she can reallocate their donation using the GlobalGiving guarantee.

This paper explores how vocational, occupational, practical or indeed experiential education can assist in the development of phronesis or practical wisdom within the responsible learner. It proposes that formalized, institutionalized education might inhibit the development of phronesis in the quest for knowledge. We propose that should we desire a society which flourishes as a community based on relatedness not transaction and on transcendence not immanence, then we will need to restore the centrality of the workplace as a site for democratic learning rather than instrumentality. We explore this proposal through the lens of Heidegger's development of the notion of techne from the being of a craftsman to technical skills.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2015
Origins Available: English, Irish Where did the Irish Day family come from? What is the Irish Day family crest and coat of arms? When did the Day family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Day family history? All Irish surnames have a unique and often romantic meaning. The name Day originally appeared in Gaelic as O Deaghaidh or O Diaghaidh. During the Middle Ages, a standardized literary language known by the general population of Ireland was a thing of fiction. When a person's name was recorded by one of the few literate scribes, it was up that particular scribe to decide how to spell an individual's name. So a person could have several spelling variations of his name recorded during a single lifetime. Research into the name Day revealed many variations, including Day, Dea, O'Dea and others. First found in County Clare (Irish: An Clár) located on the west coast of Ireland in the province of Munster, where O'Dea was chief of Dysart-O'Dea, now the parish of Dysart, barony of Inchiquin, one of the original chiefs and clans of ancient Thomond. Today Dysert O'Dea Castle still stands near Corofin, County Clare with its Romanesque Doorway and High Cross and was the site of the Battle of Dysert O'Dea in 1318. It was here that the Irish chieftain Conor O'Dea, chief of the Cineal Fearmaic and ally of Murtough O'Brien, stood his ground only to be defeated by the invading forces from Scotland. This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Day research. Another 273 words(20 lines of text) covering the years 1318 and 1434 are included under the topic Early Day History in all our PDF Extended History products. Another 279 words(20 lines of text) are included under the topic Early Day Notables in all our PDF Extended History products. The 18th century saw the slow yet steady emigration of Irish families to British North America and the United States. Those early Irish settlers that left their homeland were typically moderately well off: they were enticed by the promise of a sizable plot of land. However, by the 1840s, this pattern of immigration was gone: immigrants to North America were seeking refuge from the starvation and disease that the Great Potato Famine of that decade brought. The great numbers of Irish that arrived to the United States and the soon to be Canada were instrumental in their quick development as powerful industrial nations. An examination of early immigration and passenger lists uncovered many early immigrants bearing the name Day: Day Settlers in United States in the 17th Century

I cross the bridge over to gully and head down a dirt path that I'm assuming will lead me to Mijas. But once I pass through a gate I start to suspect that this is a very, very long driveway winding up the mountain. Sure enough, I reach an abandoned villa and the path ends.

Sale Price:
See the heavens in a whole new way with the Konus MotorMax 90 Maksutov-Cassegrain Telescope with RA Motor Drive. This unique telescope incorporates the features of four different telescope styles for optimum performance and power. It uses both the lenses of refractor telescopes and the mirrors of Newtonian scopes, and combines the compact design of Schmidt-Cassegrains with the exotic design of Maksutov-Cassegrains. The result is a telescope model with a wider field of vision and a crisper, clearer view that is easy to set up and store.
The Konus MotorMax 90 also features a built-in flip-mirror system that allows for a straight-down 90-degree viewing angle. By flipping the mirror and adding the included star diagonal, the viewing angle can be shifted to 45 degrees. Fully multi-coated lenses allow for optimum light entrance and distribution, and long eye relief offers optimum comfort, especially for eyeglass wearers. A 3.5-inch-diameter aperture offers a wide magnification range of 20x to 180x, which allows for equally clear vision of a nearby bird on a branch and deep-space objects. Additionally, the Konus MotorMax 90 is equipped with a compact Equatorial mount with a motorized RA that tracks stars easily. Includes an attached finderscope, an adjustable aluminum tripod with a 3-pound counterweight, and a moon filter to reduce excessive reflected light.

Q1: Does this product come with a tripod?
A: Absolutely, the scope includes everything that you will need to use it right out of the box.
Q2: Also, (second question in past 2 minutes...) is shipping free? And is it taxable if I live in Illinois? Thanks so much!
A: You would be required to pay the shipping but there would be no tax.
Q3: Can you send me or can I download an instruction and operation manual. I received the Motormax 90 with RA Motor Drive for Christmas and there is no instructions for operation! Thanks, Kevin Lenfest
A: you can download them directly from the Konus website.
Q4: How does this telescope compare with the Zhumell-eclipse 114 motor drive (sku ec001). ie which is the best?
A: that will depend specifically on your use. The motormax 90 is a 90mm (3.5") Maxutov-cassegrain, which means it will work well for both deepspace and for our solar system. The Zhumell however is 114mm (4.5")reflector. So if your interest is strictly deepspace viewing then get the Zhumell as it has a larger aperture. If your interest is not only deepspace then the motormax 90 would be a perfect choice.
Q5: with the Konus motor max 90 with RA motor drive it says it has astro photography does that mean it can take pictures and if it does how would you get them off? thanks.
A: Actually what that means is that you are able to adapt a camera to this telescope so that you are able to do astrophotography. The telescope does not have a built in camera.

The value of Australia's newly established network of marine parks has been highlighted by an international project that used satellites to track the vulnerable flatback sea turtle. The findings are published in Springer's journal Marine Biology. In the study, researchers from Deakin University (Australia), Swansea University (U.K.) and Pendoley Environmental consultancy (Australia) used advanced satellite tracking systems to record the passage of more than 70 flatbacks off the north-west Australian coastline.
A high value migratory corridor, more than 1,000 kilometres in length, was pinpointed, with about half the corridor contained within the network of marine reserves.
"Our findings show that much of the flatback turtle's transit passage between its breeding colonies and foraging grounds falls within the newly established Commonwealth Marine Reserve network," said Deakin University animal movement expert Professor Graeme Hays, co-author of the study.
These findings will help refine ongoing conservation planning to protect this wide-ranging turtle species using the Australian coast, including the identification of high-use areas outside the existing reserve network. The migration corridor is located tens of kilometres from the Australian mainland and spans tens of kilometres in width. The flatback and other marine species in the area may be susceptible to accidental mortality, such as collision with vessels and fishery bycatch.
Tracking devices were attached to the turtle's soft shell using a flexible harness that detached after about 12 months use. A signal, depicting the turtle's position, was transmitted in real-time to a constellation of satellites known as the 'Argos system' as turtles surfaced to breathe about once every 10 to 15 minutes.
The research also highlights how whales, sharks and turtles share a common migration corridor, which was previously unknown. Professor Hays says the team's find

Help us keep America moving
On the bus next week, I'll visit communities where investment in transportation is making a big difference in people's lives--where it allows them to get to a job or college, where it makes moving a farmer's goods to market easier, and where it creates new jobs.
But it's a big country, and I can't see it all in a single week, and I won't be able to hear everyone's stories on one trip. So I could use your help...
As many of you know, Secretary Foxx is about to embark on his "Invest in America, Commit to the Future" bus tour. It's great to know that the first step in his trip involved safety.
That's right, before finalizing his plans, the Secretary "Looked Before He Booked" using the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's SaferBus app. The app is available for iPad and Android devices, and it allows you to check the safety record of your motorcoach carrier before going on a trip.
Secretary Foxx had a little help from FMCSA Administrator Anne Ferro, but as the video below shows, the app is easy to use. And, it allows you and your loved ones to travel with confidence.
This morning, I announced that I will spend the next week traveling across the country with a simple message: Americans across the country need new and better transportation options to help them get to school, get to work or start a business; the President has proposed a way to do all this without adding to the deficit...if we can get Congress to say "yes" to investing in America by committing to a multi-year transportation bill.
Transportation connects Americans to opportunity. From the canals built just after our independence to the transcontinental railroad to the interstate highway system, better transportation has always led this nation to greater prosperity...
When we talk about Connected Vehicles, we're talking about vehicles that use basic wireless technology to talk to each other, to mobile devices, and to roadside infrastructure such as traffic signals. And, believe it or not, these vehicles are in the fast lane toward deployment and implementation on America's roads.
When vehicles and roadway infrastructure exchange information with each other, we have the potential to make our transportation system significantly safer, smarter, and greener.
Building on our momentum, we have released a Request for Information (RFI) to help bring the promise of connected vehicles to some of our roads even sooner...
One sign of spring that drivers across the country are sure to notice is the appearance of orange cones indicating road work. As the road construction season begins in earnest, National Work Zone Awareness Week reminds drivers to slow down, pay attention, and drive safely in work zones.
In 2012, 609 people died in highway work zone crashes. That's an increase of 19 fatalities from 2011, and it's 609 too many. You might be surprised to know that nearly four in five victims of work zone crashes are not highway workers, but drivers and their passengers.
During World War II, railroads and rail workers were essential to our war effort and to our economy. From 1942 to 1943, Jack Delano of the Federal Office of War Information took thousands of photographs of railroad workers, mostly in the Chicago area.
Now, thanks to the Center for Railroad Photography & Art, more than 60 of Delano's photographs of the Chicago railroad community are on display in a new Chicago History Museum called "Railroaders: Jack Delano's Homefront Photography." On Saturday, I attended the exhibit's opening along with hundreds of the rail workers' family members who helped the Center for Railroad Photography & Art tell their stories...
The morning of September 16, 2013, brought tragedy to those working at the Washington Navy Yard and their families. As members of the Navy Yard community, we at DOT share the sad memory of this senseless event, but sometimes in the darkest moments we can find heroes to provide spots of light.
The Navy Yard was filled with heroes that morning, men and women who risked their lives to help their co-workers evacuate the building to safety. I'm proud to say that DOT had a couple of heroes of our own, Noah Smith and Laurie Flaherty of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. And last week, the American Ambulance Association honored them with awards for valor...
Last October, Volpe --our National Transportation Systems Center in Cambridge, Massachusetts-- launched an eight-session speaker series on Transportation System Resilience, Extreme Weather, and Climate Change. Given the tremendous damage imposed by Hurricane Sandy in 2012, the long snow-filled winter we're emerging from, and the dramatic climate events predicted for the future, this series is tackling a very important challenge.
Soon after President Obama rolled out a comprehensive Climate Change Action Plan, last summer, I had the pleasure of kicking off this important series at Volpe. It's designed to explore transportation system resiliency and the escalating threats our changing climate poses on our transportation system...
Across the country, the Federal Aviation Administration is continuously enhancing and upgrading our air traffic facilities to keep our aviation system the safest and most efficient in the world. And one of the places where we've invested in your safety is at the new Houston Air Traffic Control center (TRACON) we dedicated last week.
The airspace around Houston is getting busier and busier. While that activity is a good sign for our growing economy, it's also a challenge for the 218 controllers, managers, and technical professionals who manage roughly 16,000 square miles of airspace in eastern Texas. During the last fiscal year, those men and women directed or supported 940,000 individual aircraft operations...
Over the past several years, we have made remarkable progress raising awareness about the dangers of distracted driving, both as a department and as a country. In 2009, when DOT took up this issue, only 18 states had anti-texting laws. Today, 43 states have banned texting while driving.
But we have more work to do. We are still losing more than 3,000 lives per year –and hundreds of thousands are injured– because of crashes caused by distraction.
That's why, today – as part of National Distracted Driving Awareness Month – the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching its first-ever national, high-visibility enforcement campaign to crackdown on texting while driving.

ESOL course in English with citizenship
This page explains how you can take and pass an English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) course in English with citizenship to demonstrate your knowledge of language and life in the UK, before you apply for naturalisation as a British citizen.
If your English skills are below ESOL Entry 3 level (or Intermediate 1 level in Scotland), you must take this course and obtain a relevant qualification before you apply.
(If your English skills are at or above that level, you must take and pass the Life in the UK Test to demonstrate your knowledge of life in the UK. And if you completed an ESOL course in order to meet the 'knowledge of language and life in the UK' requirement when you applied for settlement in the UK, you will not need to show again that you meet this requirement.)
The Nationality Regulations for ESOL courses changed on 7 April 2010. If you want to demonstrate your knowledge of language and life with an ESOL qualification, you must now meet the following requirements:
- You must have attended your ESOL course at an accredited college.
- The course must have included citizenship materials derived from the document 'Citizenship Materials for ESOL Learners' (ISBN: 1-84478-5424).
- You must have obtained a relevant ESOL qualification from an approved awarding body.
- You must demonstrate that you have made relevant progress.
An 'accredited college' is:
- a publicly funded college that is subject to inspection by Ofsted (if it is in England), the Education and Training Inspectorate (Northern Ireland), HM Inspectorate of Education (Scotland), Estyn (Wales); or an inspection programme that has been approved by the Island's Government (in the Channel Islands or Isle of Man): or
- a private college that has been accredited by Accreditation UK, the British Accreditation Council (BAC), the Accreditation Body for Language Services (ABLS) or the Accreditation Service for International Colleges (ASIC).
A 'relevant ESOL qualification' is:
- an ESOL qualification in speaking and listening at Entry 1, Entry 2 or Entry 3 level approved by the Office of the Qualifications and Examinations Regulation (Ofqual); or
- one National Qualifications Unit in ESOL at Access 2, Access 3 or Intermediate 1 level approved by the Scottish Qualifications Authority.
'Approved awarding bodies' in England, Wales and Northern Ireland are:
- Ascentis (formerly Open College of the Northwest)
- Cambridge ESOL
- City & Guilds (Pitmans)
- Edexcel
- Education Development International (EDI)
- English Speaking Board (International) Limited
- Learning Resource Network
- National Open College Network
- Trinity College London
In Scotland, the only approved awarding body is the Scottish Qualifications Authority.
To demonstrate 'relevant progress', your college must confirm that you have progressed by at least one level from the level at which you were assessed at the beginning of the course that led to your relevant qualification. For example, if you were initially assessed by your college as being below Entry 1 level, you must obtain an ESOL (speaking and listening) qualification at Entry 1 level or above.
You should check with your college to ensure that it is accredited as described above, and that the course meets all of the above requirements. If your college is not accredited, or if the course does not meet all of the above requirements, your application will be refused. Your college should provide a letter confirming that the relevant criteria are met. You can download a template of this letter here. The college should also provide evidence to show how it meets the definition of an accredited college.
The UK Border Agency understands that some non-accredited colleges will be seeking accreditation. If you have successfully completed an ESOL course at a non-accredited college, you may want to wait until the college has become accredited before you apply for naturalisation. If the college was accredited when you received your qualification, but is no longer accredited, you will meet this requirement.

Stimulus intensity and loudness recruitment: Neural correlates
View Description Hide DescriptionAn abnormally rapid rate of loudness growth for given increments in stimulus intensity is seen both in patients with cochlear pathology and in normal listeners under conditions of wide‐spectrum noise masking. The phenomenological similarity between these psychophysical observations raises the question of whether a single mechanism, or set of mechanisms, underlies them. Recent neurophysiological studies in animals have addressed the effects of cochlear pathology and noise masking on the neural correlates of stimulus intensity in the central auditory nervous system. A comparison of the data presented in those studies reveals that there are sequelae of cochlear pathology seen in the discharges of auditory‐nerve fibers that might reasonably be expected to contribute to a steepened loudness function. These sequelae are not seen at the same locus in normal animals studied with noise masking paradigms. Noise masking, however, may have effects on the tonal sensitivity of more central neurons that mimic some of the sequelae of cochlear pathology seen in the auditory nerve. These data suggest that the mechanisms underlying the two manifestations of recruitment may be quite different, one having a uniquely cochlear site, while the other reflects purely central processes.
Analytical and experimental investigation on vibrating circular plates with stepped thickness over a concentric circular region
View Description Hide DescriptionTransverse vibrations of the structural elements described in the title are studied for the case where the edges are elastically restrained against translation and rotation. Since finding an exact solution is a difficult task, it was considered convenient to approximate the response of the plate in the case of free, axisymmetric vibrations by means of a summation of simple polynomial coordinate functions that satisfy the governing boundary conditions. The Ritz method is used in order to generate the frequency equation. The natural frequency coefficients are optimized by minimizing each eigenvalue with respect to an undetermined exponential parameter included in each coordinate function.
Instantaneous and time‐averaged energy transfer in acoustic fields
View Description Hide DescriptionThe fundamentals of energy transfer in an acoustic field are addressed and it is shown that describing the flux of energy in an acoustic field with the active intensity alone is inaccurate. A single active intensity vector describes only the time‐average energy flux at a point in space, but not where the energy came from nor where it is going. Consequently, the instantaneous intensity must be used to properly describe energy flux as a time‐dependent process. The phenomenon of the acoustic vortex is examined and, from the perspective of active intensity, it is seen to represent a resultant wave rotating around a zero pressure line or point at which the pressure phase is discontinuous. It is shown that this resultant wave travels with a phase speed c p , which is generally different than the plane‐wave phase speed c. The instantaneous intensity, however, shows that energy is flowing through the vortex and not with the resultant waves. Although the complex intensity vector is normally separated into the active and reactive components (i.e., rotational and solenoidal parts), the active intensity can be further represented by two parts, one with zero and another with nonzero curl, which permits the representation of the coupling between sources or parts of a source. In general, this article emphasizes the physical meaning and interpretation of energy related quantities.
Discrimination in neonates of very short CVs
View Description Hide DescriptionThe experiment reported here explores the ability of 4‐ to 5‐day‐old neonates to discriminate consonantal place of articulation and vowel quality using shortened CV syllables similar to those used by Blumstein and Stevens [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 6 7, 648–662 (1980)], without vowel steady‐state information. The results show that the initial 34–44 ms of CV stimuli provide infants with sufficient information to discriminate place of articulation differences in stop consonants ([ba] vs [da], [ba] vs [ga], [bi] vs [di], and [bi] vs [gi]) and following vowel quality ([ba] vs [bi], [da] vs [di], and [ga] vs [gi]). These results suggest that infants can discriminate syllables on the basis of the onset properties of CV signals. Furthermore, this experiment indicates that neonates require little or no exposure to speech to succeed in such a discrimination task.
Acoustic parameters measured by a formant‐estimating speech processor for a multiple‐channel cochlear implant
View Description Hide DescriptionIn order to assess the limitations imposed on a cochlear implantsystem by a wearable speech processor, the parameters extracted from a set of 11 vowels and 24 consonants were examined. An estimate of the fundamental frequency E F0 was derived from the zero crossings of the low‐pass filtered envelope of the waveform. Estimates of the first and second formant frequencies E F1 and E F2 were derived from the zero crossings of the waveform, which was filtered in the ranges 300–1000 and 800–4000 Hz. Estimates of the formant amplitudes E A1 and E A2 were derived by peak detectors operating on the outputs of the same filters. For vowels, these parameters corresponded well to the first and second formants and gave sufficient information to identify each vowel. For consonants, the relative levels and onset times of E A1 and E A2 and the E F0 values gave cues to voicing. The variation in time of E A1, E A2, E F1, and E F2 gave cues to the manner of articulation. Cues to the place of articulation were given by E F1 and E F2. When pink noise was added, the parameters were gradually degraded as the signal‐to‐noise ratio decreased. Consonants were affected more than vowels, and E F2 was affected more than E F1. Results for three good patients using a speech processor that coded E F0 as an electric pulse rate, E F1 and E F2 as electrode positions, and E A1 and E A2 as electric current levels confirmed that the parameters were useful for recognition of vowels and consonants. Average scores were 76% for recognition of 11 vowels and 71% for 12 consonants in the hearing‐alone condition. The error rates were 4% for voicing, 12% for manner, and 25% for place.
Vowel and consonant recognition of cochlear implant patients using formant‐estimating speech processors
View Description Hide DescriptionVowel and consonant confusion matrices were collected in the hearing alone (H), lipreading alone (L), and hearing plus lipreading (HL) conditions for 28 patients participating in the clinical trial of the multiple‐channel cochlear implant. All patients were profound‐to‐totally deaf and ''hearing'' refers to the presentation of auditory information via the implant. The average scores were 49% for vowels and 37% for consonants in the H condition and the HL scores were significantly higher than the L scores. Information transmission and multidimensional scalinganalyses showed that different speech features were conveyed at different levels in the H and L conditions. In the HL condition, the visual and auditory signals provided independent information sources for each feature. For vowels, the auditory signal was the major source of duration information, while the visual signal was the major source of first and second formant frequency information. The implant provided information about the amplitude envelope of the speech and the estimated frequency of the main spectral peak between 800 and 4000 Hz, which was useful for consonant recognition. A speech processor that coded the estimated frequency and amplitude of an additional peak between 300 and 1000 Hz was shown to increase the vowel and consonant recognition in the H condition by improving the transmission of first formant and voicing information.
An acoustic analysis of fluctuations in the voices of normal adult speakers across three times of day
View Description Hide DescriptionThe purpose of this study was to determine the amount of variation for several vocal parameters across three times of the day (morning, noon, and afternoon). Connected speech samples from normal adult males (N=10) and females (N=10) were recorded during morning, early afternoon, and late afternoon. Results showed that males produced a statistically significant increase in speaking fundamental frequency (SFF) from morning to afternoon. Females did not demonstrate a statistically significant change in SFF across the three time periods. Vocal amplitude did not change significantly for either group. The SFF variability was higher for the females than for the males. Analysis of individual data revealed that the patterns of vocal change across the three times of day were not consistent among the subjects.
Effects of changes in absolute signal level on psychophysical tuning curves in quiet and noise in patas monkeys
View Description Hide DescriptionForward masking psychophysical tuning curves (PTCs) were measured in patas monkeys (E r y t h r o c e b u s p a t a s) at 2, 4, and 8 kHz at signal levels of 10, 30, and 60 dB SL in quiet, and at 10 dB above masked threshold in two levels of wideband noise. Absolute signal levels with masking approximated those at 30 and 60 dB SL in quiet. Results in quiet agree with those reported in the literature, demonstrating broadening of the PTC as signal level is increased. The PTCs measured in noise also demonstrated a similar broadening, or loss of selectivity, at higher SPLs. These later findings differ from those of a previous study [D. M. Green, B. R. Shelton, M. C. Picardi, and E. R. Hafter, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 6 9, 1758–1762 (1981)] which used maskers to control the broadened excitation pattern in humans at levels of up to 34 dB above threshold. Differences in findings might be attributed to higher SPLs used in the present study. The data taken in noise backgrounds are not consistent with explanations for broadening based on an increase in the width of excitation patterns, but instead support the suggestion that the filter itself is nonlinear. Moreover, comparisons of PTCs in quiet and noise suggest that ''off‐frequency'' listening acts at any given measurement level to artificially sharpen PTCs.
Factors affecting thresholds for sinusoidal signals in narrow‐band maskers with fluctuating envelopes
View Description Hide DescriptionWhen a signal is higher in frequency than a narrow‐band masker, thresholds are lower when the masker envelope fluctuates than when it is constant. This article investigates the cues used to achieve the lower thresholds, and the factors that influence the amount of threshold reduction. In experiment I the masker was either a sinusoid (constant envelope) or a pair of equal‐amplitude sinusoids (fluctuating envelope) centered at the same frequency as the single sinusoid (250, 1000, 3000, or 5275 Hz). The signal frequency was 1.8 times the masker frequency. At all center frequencies, thresholds were lower for the two‐tone masker than for the sinusoidal masker, but the effect was smaller at the highest and lowest frequencies. The reduced effect at high frequencies is attributed to the loss of a cue related to phase locking in the auditory nerve. The reduced effect at low frequencies can be partly explained by reduced slopes of the growth‐of‐masking functions. In experiment II the masker was a sinusoid amplitude modulated at an 8‐Hz rate. Masker and signal frequencies were the same as for the first experiment. Randomizing the modulation depth between the two halves of a forced‐choice trial had no effect on thresholds, indicating that changes in modulation depth are not used as a cue for signal detection. Thresholds in the modulated masker were higher than would be predicted if they were determined only by the masker level at minima in the envelope, and the threshold reduction produced by modulating the masker envelope was less at 250 Hz than at higher frequencies. Experiments III and IV reveal two factors that contribute to the reduced release from masking at low frequencies: (1) The rate of increase of masked threshold with decreasing duration is greater at 250 Hz than at 1000 Hz; (2) the amount of forward masking, relative to simultaneous masking, is greater at 250 Hz than at 1000 Hz. The results are discussed in terms of the relative importance of across‐channel cues and within‐channel cues.
Effects of auditory fatigue on psychophysical estimates of cochlear nonlinearities
View Description Hide DescriptionTwo‐tone‐suppression (2TS) effects and cubic‐difference‐tone (CDT) levels were measured using a forward‐masking procedure, before and after exposure to an intense tonal stimulus. Changes in 2TS effects were consistent with a change in the nonlinearity, such that the system became more linear, in addition to changes due to attenuation of the primary stimuli F 1 and F 2. Changes in CDT levels could be accounted for on the basis of a temporary threshold shift at F 1 and F 2. These results indicate at least a partial dissociation of the mechanisms underlying 2TS and CDT generation.
The perceptual attack time of musical tones
View Description Hide DescriptionPerceptual attack time (PAT) is defined as the time a tone's moment of attack or most salient metrical feature is perceived relative to its physical onset. Experiments are described that measured the PATs of recorded orchestral instrument tones by means of an interactive procedure with a computer and digital music synthesizer. Some PAT prediction models were then developed and tested against the empirical data. The most successful model had a correlation of 0.995 between measured and predicted PATs. The PAT is dependent on both rise time and listening level, indicating that the slope of the rise function is a key factor. Duration and spectrum can also act as cues to PAT, but are much less influential than amplitude or intensity cues. Possible relations to findings in physiology, particularly to the phenomenon of short‐term adaptation in the firing of auditory fibers, are discussed.
Pitch perception by cochlear implant subjects
View Description Hide DescriptionDirect electrical stimulation of the auditory nerve can be used to restore some degree of hearing to the profoundly deaf. Percepts due to electrical stimulation have characteristics corresponding approximately to the acoustic percepts of loudness,pitch, and timbre. To encode speech as a pattern of electrical stimulation, it is necessary to determine the effects of the stimulus parameters on these percepts. The effects of the three basic stimulus parameters of level, repetition rate, and stimulation location on subjects' percepts were examined. Pitch difference limens arising from changes in rate of stimulation increase as the stimulating rate increases, up to a saturation point of between 200 and 1000 pulses per second. Changes in pitch due to electrode selection depend upon the subject, but generally agree with a tonotopic organization of the human cochlea. Further, the discriminability of such place‐pitch percepts seems to be dependent on the degree of current spread in the cochlea. The effect of stimulus level on perceived pitch is significant but is highly dependent on the individual tested. The results of these experiments are discussed in terms of their impact on speech‐processing strategies and their relevance to acoustic pitch perception.
Psychophysical studies relevant to the design of a digital electrotactile speech processor
View Description Hide DescriptionPsychophysical tests were carried out to investigate the perception of electrocutaneous stimuli delivered to the digital nerve bundles. The tests provided data for defining the operating range of a tactile aid for patients with profound‐to‐total hearing loss, as well as the individual differences between subjects and the information that could be transmitted. Monopolar biphasic constant current pulses with variable pulse widths were used. Threshold pulse widths varied widely between subjects and between fingers for the same subject. Thresholds were reasonably stable, but maximum comfortable levels increased with time. Perceived intensity was weakly dependent on pulse rate. Absolute identification of stimuli differing in pulse width gave information transmissions from 1.3–2.1 bits, limited by the dynamic ranges of the stimuli (3–17 dB). Stimuli from electrodes placed on either side of each finger were identified easily by all subjects. Absolute identification of stimuli differing in pulse rate gave information transmissions from 0.5–2.0 bits. Difference limens for pulse rate varied between subjects and were generally poor above 100 pps. On the basis of the results, an electrotactile speech processor is proposed, which codes the speech amplitude as pulse width, the fundamental frequency as pulse rate, and the second formant frequency as electrode position. Variable performances on tasks relying on amplitude and fundamental frequency cues are expected to arise from the intersubject differences in dynamic range and pulse rate discrimination. The psychophysical results for electrotactile stimulation are compared with previously published results for electroauditory stimulation with a multiple‐channel cochlear implant.
The application of a capacitive probe technique for direct observation of electromechanical processes in the guinea pig cochlea
View Description Hide DescriptionThe demonstration of evoked mechanical responses of the outer hair cells in the mammalian cochlea by indirect measurements introduces a new range of problems into direct mechanical measurements. Direct and indirect measurements indicate that the frequency spectra of evoked electromechanical responses may extend well into the range of audio frequencies, revealing a need to develop terminology and protocols for distinguishing evoked mechanical responses from the traditional traveling wave when both are apparently superimposed on the motion of the basilar membrane in the normally functioning cochlea. Details are presented of a frequency‐modulation capacitive probe technique for measurement of vibrating structures of the guinea pig ear. Considerations include the design of the transducer,calibration, sensitivity, linearity, and sources of noise, as well as the influence of the technique upon the animal preparation, and in particular the issues associated with draining scala tympani for the measurement. Relative advantages and disadvantages of the technique are compared with salient features of other techniques currently available. In view of the apparent complexity of cochlear mechanics some preliminary experiments are required to elucidate some of the key questions about reverse‐transduction processes in general. A ''simple'' first experiment is to test existence of any rectifying or motile response.
Frequency‐dependent self‐induced bias of the basilar membrane and its potential for controlling sensitivity and tuning in the mammalian cochlea
View Description Hide DescriptionA displacement‐sensitive capacitive probe technique was used in the first turn of guinea pig cochleas to examine whether the motion of the basilar membrane includes a displacement component analogous to the dc receptor potentials of the hair cells. Such a ''dc'' component apparently exists. At a given location on the basilar membrane, its direction toward scala vestibuli (SV) or scala tympani (ST) varies systematically with frequency of the acoustic stimulus. Furthermore, it appears to consist of two parts: a small asymmetric offset response to each gated tone burst plus a progressive shift of the basilar membrane from its previous position. The mean position shift is cumulative, increasing with successive tone bursts. The amplitude of the immediate offset response, when plotted as a function of frequency, appears to exhibit a trimodal pattern. This displacement offset is toward SV at the characteristic frequency (CF) of the location of the probe, while at frequencies either above or below the CF the offset is relatively larger, and toward ST. The mechanical motion of the basilar membrane therefore appears to contain the basis for lateral suppression. The cumulative mean position shift, however, appears to peak toward ST at the apical end of the traveling wave envelope and appears to be associated with a resonance, not of the basilar membrane motion directly, but coupled to it. The summating potential, measured concurrently at the round window, shows a more broadly tuned peak just above the CF of the position of the probe. This seems to correspond to the peak at the CF of the mechanical bias. As the preparation deteriorates, the best frequency of the vibratory displacement response decreases to about a half‐octave below the original CF. There is a corresponding decrease in the frequency of the peaks of the trimodal pattern of the asymmetric responses to tone bursts. The trimodal pattern also broadens.
In previous experiments the basilar membrane has been forced to move in response to a low‐frequency biasing tone. The sensitivity to high‐frequency stimuli varies in phase with the biasing tone. The amplitudes of slow movement in these earlier experiments and in the present experiments are of the same order of magnitude. This suggests strongly that the cumulative shift toward ST to a high‐frequency acoustic stimulus constitutes a substantial controlling bias on the sensitivity of the cochlea in that same high‐frequency region. Its effect will be to reduce the slope of neural rate‐level functions on the high‐frequency side of CF.
A spatial template for the shape of tuning curves in the mammalian cochlea
View Description Hide DescriptionThe shape of the tuning curve of primary auditory neurons of four mammals is characterized using a simple exponential model. The regression analysis formalizes a distinction between the characteristic frequency of a neuron and its ''nominal'' characteristic frequency in cases of temporary threshold loss in high‐frequency neurons. Second, the model offers a stronger quality test for sharpness of tuning than the Q10 dB since it takes into account the threshold of the neuron at its characteristic frequency and its ''c h a r a c t e r i s t i c p l a c e'' of origin along the cochlear partition. Third, the model reveals that the low‐frequency side of the tip segment of the tuning curve is bounded by a constraint or template which is most simply expressed in spatial terms. The template describes the basal‐side boundary of an ''excitatory region'' whose length along the cochlear partition is proportional to the square root of the sound pressure. Tuning curve variability arises because biological dependencies influence the basic template. A ''spatial‐filter'' hypothesis is developed and its generality is discussed, particularly in regard to the case of the acoustic ''fovea'' of the horseshoe bat. Finally, the possibility is discussed that the template possesses a simple physiological correlate in the form of a spatially localized region marked by a ''dc'' shift of the mean position of the basilar membrane which sets the sensitivity of the tuning mechanism [E. L. LePage, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 8 2, 139–154 (1987)].
Potentials evoked by the sinusoidal modulation of the amplitude or frequency of a tone
View Description Hide DescriptionSteady state responses to the sinusoidal modulation of the amplitude or frequency of a tone were recorded from the human scalp. For both amplitude modulation (AM) and frequency modulation(FM), the responses were most consistent at modulation frequencies between 30 and 50 Hz. However, reliable responses could also be recorded at lower frequencies, particularly at 2–5 Hz for AM and at 3–7 Hz for FM. With increasing modulation depth at 40 Hz, both the AM and FM response increased in amplitude, but the AM response tended to saturate at large modulation depths. Neither response showed any significant change in phase with changes in modulation depth. Both responses increased in amplitude and decreased in phase delay with increasing intensity of the carrier tone, the FM reponse showing some saturation of amplitude at high intensities. Both responses could be recorded at modulation depths close to the subjective threshold for detecting the modulation and at intensities close to the subjective threshold for hearing the stimulus. The responses were variable but did not consistently adapt over periods of 10 min. The 40‐Hz AM and FM responses appear to originate in the same generator, this generator being activated by separate auditory systems that detect changes in either amplitude or frequency.
Maximum directivity proof for three‐dimensional arrays
View Description Hide DescriptionA proof is presented for the following theorem: Given all possible three‐dimensional (3‐D) configurations of n omnidirectional acoustic sensors with vanishingly small separations, and given all possible weighting schemes and steer directions, the directivity index achieves an overall maximum value of n 2 when the sensors are configured as a linear array steered to end‐fire, it being immaterial whether or not the sensor spacings are equal.
Transient pressure fields of PVDF transducers
View Description Hide DescriptionThe radiated pressure fields of pulsed polyvinylindene difluoride (PVDF) transducers have been determined experimentally, and compared to theory in three dimensions. The tranducers were in the form of disks, cones, or bowls, excited with a range of known transients in the form of gated sinusoidal voltages. It is demonstrated that good agreement is possible between theory and experiment, and it is shown that more marked interference effects occur as the duration of excitation tone burst is increased. It is also shown that PVDF transducers may be manufactured so as to behave as plane piston radiators.
Surface roughness induced attenuation of reflected and transmitted ultrasonic waves
View Description Hide DescriptionThe problem of ultrasonic transmission and reflection at a randomly rough interface is considered in connection with ultrasonic NDE of rough surface samples by immersion method. A simple first‐order phase perturbation technique is used to calculate both transmitted and reflected components for comparison with experimental results. The transmitted wave is shown to be attenuated in a similar way to the reflected one, and their attenuation ratio is found to be independent of frequency in the considered cases of slight surface roughness. For instance, the surface roughness induced attenuation of the wave reflected from a water–aluminum interface is about seven times higher than that of the transmitted component. Experimental results are presented to show good agreement with calculated predictions of the suggested simple technique.

2029 Online is an innovative MMORPG by IGG that combines RTS (Real Time Strategy) tactics and social interaction to enhance its gameplay. The player is allowed to create a character by selecting from one of the three available races and a gender to suit. A static avatar can be selected from a sizable selection to help players differentiate their character from others. The game's story unfolds on an alien planet named Helen Continent, where different cultures struggle for survival. 2029 Online's great user interface promotes and allows for great social interaction and a rich gaming experience. Like most free MMORPGs, character diversity is unfortunately quite limited, as players are allowed to choose between only three different races:
Humans: The humans have arrived on Helen Continent due to the destruction of their home, Earth. They are portrayed to care mainly about politics and wealth, and favor the use of guns.
Dryads: These forest giants are supposed to be the peaceful brutes of nature. Starting off with primitive club-type weapons, Dryads use their strength and connection to nature to their advantage.
Electric Elves: This mysterious race has a background that remains largely unknown. They are said to be conceited and keep mainly to themselves, wielding their intelligence as their main weapon.

How to Make a Middle School Graduation Speech
Getting promoted to high school is a pretty big deal, and you would probably like to leave a mark on your middle school. Go out with a bang by giving a great graduation speech!
1Introduce yourself. An administrator will probably give you a basic introduction, but you may want to add a few details.
Hi everyone! I'm Dan and I've been going to Lemon Valley School for three years now.Ad -
2Talk about your first memories at the school. Did you start at the same time as everyone else or did you transfer? Talk about what you expected when you first arrived.
When I first got here, I remember thinking that the campus was huge and crowded. I was afraid I wasn't going to fit in. -
3Talk about how much you enjoyed the experience. If you were scared at first, say that things turned out much better than you expected.
But everyone I've gotten to know over the past few years have been great. I've made lots of close friends and learned from great teachers. -
4Say a sentence or two about each teacher. If it's appropriate, make little jokes – but don't be mean-spirited. Unless you had a big number of teachers over the years, try not to leave anyone out.
Mr. Holmes showed me that science can be fun – especially when your model volcano erupts all over the ceiling. I'll never forget that time Mrs. Peterson made a perfect dunk on the basketball court. And who knew that Ms. Ludlow plays the banjo like nobody's business? -
5Talk a bit about the other students. You may be the one giving the speech, but you are representing your graduating class. Talk about memorable incidents, things that your class was known for, or how close everyone has become.
Of course, it wouldn't have been the same without my awesome classmates. During the fall charity drive, our class made Lemon Valley history by raising over three thousand dollars. Our trip to D.C. this year was one of the most fun experiences of my life. I'm glad that so many of us will be going to the same school in the fall. -
6Talk about the future. Discuss how middle school has helped you prepare for what's to come.
I used to think that going to high school would be scary, but with all my friends and everything that my teachers have taught me, all I feel now is excited. -
7Thank everyone for what they did to make your middle-school years great. This includes peers, teachers, parents, administration, and staff. If there was a time when someone really helped you, include it.
I want to thank the teachers, the staff, Principal Nolan, my classmates, and, of course, my parents for a wonderful Lemon Valley experience. I especially want to thank Sara Jenkins, who was the first person to talk to me on my first day, showed me the ropes during my first week, and has been my mentor over the past three years. -
8Add a closing statement. Think of a nice clincher that will leave a great impact on your audience and will close the speech nicely.
On behalf of the class of 2012, I want to thank you again! I just hope that Lemon Valley School remembers us as fondly as we'll remember it.Ad
We could really use your help!

- Stay Confident! Never let your audience think you are too nervous or shy.
- Make sure you have some sort of message that is inspirational so that people remember it.
- Adding jokes in your speech is perfectly alright. In fact, it will make the speech more memorable.
- Keep the speech lively. Nobody wants to fall asleep at their own graduation. (Or, in your case, put their entire class to sleep.)
- Don't be too nervous! If you were asked to make the speech, then you were probably asked for a reason.
- You are not graduating from high school or college, so don't be overly sappy or ridiculous! You still have a long road ahead of you.
- It may help to take a deep breath before starting your speech.
- Consider ending with a thoughtful quote you've made up by yourself.
- Show your emotions.Smile.
- Feel free to tell stories of people, but make sure that you ask the person if you can mention them in the speech. That way no one is embarrassed on graduation day.
- The speech should not be too long. 3-5 minutes would do nicely. Do not include too many memories of the school, or it may start sounding like a list!
- Make sure the content in your speech is respectful to all. This includes even the teachers that you hate.
- Do not chew gum while speaking because that is disrespectful.
- Do not show your speech to your friends or it won't have as much impact during the ceremony. (You will probably have to run it by a teacher, though.)

Parade: Spirit of America
July 5, 2006
Dear Kay,
Aw, it was a great Fourth of July parade. Finally able to post some hi-lites:
Betsy Ross.
Iguana traveling in woman's lap.
Nun riding beside large stuffed bear.
Mama Pat's Day Care. Where guardrails won't hold 'em back. Because we don't use 'em.
Somebody left their jar of mayonnaise. I hate it when that happens. Can't find my damn mayonnaise.
Creepy clown on a tiny bike.
And, of course, the traditional launching of
Mentos and Diet Coke. Four Mentos + one 2-liter Diet Coke equals:
Happy Fourth of July!

First Sir Alex planned to send Tom Cleverley on loan to a Premier League team, but then backtracked saying that Cleverley could be valuable to the squad as a goalscoring midfielder. However, Fergie backtracked once more on deadline day, and Cleverley will now ply his trade at the DW Stadium for the remainder of the 2010/11 season.

NEW: Reserves and Academy Player Profiles: Magnus Eikrem
When I joined Stretford-End.com I wanted to be able to add something that reflects one of my particular interests – the Reserves and Academy. Already on the forum our Reserves and Academy section has been busier but I wanted to take my passion to a wider audience. If you follow me on Twitter you will know I want to try to get as many Reds as possible interested in what goes on beyond the first team at our club. Regular visitors to Stretford-End.com will know that we've always championed development from within so I want to make it a regular habit to introduce some of our youngsters every few weeks, starting with the Reserve team captain, Magnus Eikrem…
Yolkie writes to Piers Morgan
Daily Mail correspondent Piers Morgan has been using his column to slag off Sir Alex Ferguson again because of the United manager's refusal to talk to the BBC. Calling him a "bully" for defending his son, ridiculously demanding Fergie is fined "millions" and best of all wanting United games banned from television. Yolkie wrote to him to inform him of the potential consequences of his wishes..
David May Exclusive Interview
Former Manchester United defender David May took time out to have an indepth discussion with Yolkie for an exclusive interview for Stretford-End.com. May, of course, was part of Sir Alex Ferguson's "fledglings" team which won the 1996 league and Cup double, and has recently set up "United Nights", an event that precedes the big games where supporters have a chance to meet their heroes. Read on for part one of our two part chat, to see Maysie's views on his relationship with the supporters, his outspoken opinion of Selhurst Park and Eric's Kung Fu kick, his toughest opponent, and his views on Stretford-End.com's championing of cult heroes!
Manchester United 3-0 West Ham United: Match Report
Manchester United comfortably overcame a West Ham side who have now lost three of their opening matches, their worst start to a League season since 1977. Wayne Rooney, Luis Nani and Dimitar Berbatov completed the scoring – with United's football breathtaking at times. If truth be told, United will face sterner challenges in the season ahead, but credit should be given for the way in which the players moved the ball once the West Ham players tired from their early pressing and high energy levels. The victory puts United in third place, level on points with Arsenal in second and Chelsea leading the table.
Manchester United vs. West Ham Match Preview
West Ham have been tricky opponents for United in the past, but rarely at Old Trafford. Under new manager, Avram Grant, they will be looking to buck a trend that has seen them defeated on each of their past three visits. Manchester United will feel they have a point to prove on many levels – three points quickly became one point at Fulham last week whilst rivals Chelsea have already racked up a goal difference of +12 after just two games.

Say somethin' nice
No account?
eylemkoksal on Jan 8, 2013 at 07:37:36
Design is very cute. T-shirt color is nice. But what i received is nothing like that.
I bought it for my 4-year-old son. The design is worn out. Also the t-shirt is discolored. It seems as if it was left under sunlight while it is folded. So there is a rectangular shaped lighter area on the base color.
I'm very disapointed because there are other items at my order with the same condition such as: "Here Comes the Airplane" and "Epic Nap Time"
Only "My Playtree" is in a good condition among 4 t-shirts.
binhob on Jan 4, 2013 at 13:38:02
Hi, I don't know how to choice the correct size to buy. My son has 6 years old.

Longino Ranch Wetlands in the Morning
Longino Ranch wetlands in the morning. This is the early spring dry season with about three inches of water in the center of the pond. No fauna other than some small birds were detected in the center area. Coyotes are known to predate these type ponds this early in the season though known were spotted today. The Longino Ranch is 9,000 acres of ranch and woodlands located near the Peace River between Arcadia and Sarasota in the Southwestern part of Florida next to the Myakka River State Park. Much of the wetlands were drained in 1953 with the water sent to the Peace River or the Myakka River.
