Happy Birthday: The Mobile Phone Turns 40

Much has changed, but cell phone inventor Motorola's legacy lives on at new parent Google
It was a spring day much like this one when Martin Cooper used his Motorola DynaTAC cell phone prototype to place a call in downtown Manhattan. The year was 1973 and it was the third day of April. The call lasted about 20 minutes and much like today's users, Mr. Cooper suffered a familiar problem -- a drained battery.
I. The First Phone Call -- 40 Years Ago Today
Mr. Cooper recalls, "The first cell phone model weighed over one kilo and you could only talk for 20 minutes before the battery ran out. Which is just as well because you would not be able to hold it up for much longer."
A fun fact about the call --
as told
in a story by
The Verge
last year -- the famous first call was actually placed to Mr. Cooper's archrival Joel Engel from Bell Systems. Mr. Engel headed a team that was competing with Mr. Cooper's team at Motorola. But it was Mr. Cooper's team that perfected cellular technology first, thus ultimately shaping the industry that emerged over the next decade. Mr. Cooper recalls, "I have to tell you, to this day, he resents what Motorola did in those days."

The achievement was publicized in this 1973
press release
[PDF] that Motorola Mobility's archivists recently dug up. (Motorola also unearthed a
fun media fact sheet
[PDF] on the DynaTAC prototype.)
Mr. Cooper and his rival had big dreams for cellular technology, but even these dreamers likely would never imagine the monstrous market force they had created.
II. Starting at $10K, Phone Captivated Electronics Fans in the 1980s
Things started slow. It took Motorola a decade more to bring its working prototype to market. One major roadblock was in removing
interference concerns
. But the
U.S. Federal Communications Commission
eventually determined the device -- the Motorola 8000X -- was safe enough to use without
interfering with vital defense or airplane signals
, allowing the world's first cell phone to hit the market in September, 1983.
The device was priced at a lofty $3,995 USD (around $10K USD in today's money), but nonetheless soon became a pop culture icon, embraced by trend setters and business elite. Shows like
Saved the Bell
helped popularize the device.
That pop culture appeal drove Motorola and its rivals to embark on a tireless path of miniaturization and innovation, a road which would eventually combine the personal computer, digital camera, and cell phone into a single device -- the smartphone.
III. Enter the Smartphone
Forty years later, the cell phone industry is estimated to take in $1.2T USD in revenue for service, apps, and devices, according to the Institution of Engineering and Technology. The mobile phone market is today the lifeblood of technology juggernauts such as Samsung Electronics Comp., Ltd. (
) and Apple, Inc. (
). Samsung alone hopes to
ship 390 million smartphones
this year.
Today, cell phones are an integral part of modern life -- both a blessing and a curse that most people over 13 can't live without. They're our connection to our family, our connection to our boss, our connection to our friends.
Last year, Google Inc. (
), makers of Android -- the world's most used smartphone operating system --
finished an acquisition
of Motorola Mobility. And while sales of Motorola branded devices
appear to be fading into the sunset
, the company's inventions will no doubt play a key role both
defending Google against lawsuits
and in inspiring new ideas: in short, Google has directly inherited Motorola's mantle as leader of the cellular industry.

As for Mr. Cooper, he's still loyally buying Motorola. He buys a phone every six months -- last year he was sporting a Motorola Droid RAZR. He told
The Verge
"I'm being sorely tested lately because the phones are coming out so fast. Each time they get a little better, and I think they're pretty much on a par now — if you know how to use them — with the iPhone."
And he's still very much involved in the industry. He runs the mobile incubator project
Dyna LLC
, whose name itself pays homage to Mr. Cooper's famous prototype.
IV. What's Next?
Here's an interesting thought to leave you with. Looking at the evolution of the phone in the last forty years...
[Image Source: La Repubblica]
...one surely must wonder what wonderous devices we'll have at the eightieth anniversary, in 2053.
What new functions will be merged into this ever expanding Swiss Army knife of the gadget world? Only time will tell.

Boys soccer: Cards fall to Sauk Rapids
WILLMAR -- In an intense, well-played match on the Kennedy field, the Sauk Rapids Storm edged the Willmar Cardinals 2-1 on Thursday.
It was "Stephen Reynolds Night" at the pitch, honoring the late 3-sport Cardinal athlete who died in his sleep last November. The family was presented a framed home and away jerseys signed by his teammates on the 2011 team. His No. 5 is retired for the season.
The Storm scored both their goals in the first 17 minutes. Willmar answered early in the second half on a goal by junior midfielder Juan Contreras.
But the Cardinals were unable to penetrate the Sauk defense for any quality shots after that.
Sauk's advantage in height was apparent in their ability to win nearly every airborne ball. The Storms' transition game was also quicker.
The Cardinals lost their second CLC match in three days to a St. Cloud area school.
The Storm (1-1-1, 3-1-1) got goals from Issa Ibrahim and Erik Cooper.
Charlie Trochil made 6 stops in the Willmar cage.
Sauk Rapids 2, Willmar 1
Sauk Rapids 2 0 -- 2
Willmar 0 1 -- 1
FIRST HALF - SR: Issa Ibrahim 15:46 ... SR: Erik Cooper (Jacob Habrouck) 17:01
SECOND HALF - Wil: Juan Contreras 43:04
SHOTS ON GOAL - Sauk Rapids: 8 ... Willmar: 5
GOALIE SAVES - Sauk Rapids: Sam Hastings 4 ... Willmar: Charlie Trochlil 6

The Iron Man vs. Lung Cancerby Edited by SU2C
Filed under | Living With Cancer
Hall of Fame Shortstop Cal Ripken, Jr., in addition to being one of baseball's all-time greats and an active philanthropist, is an advocate and spokesperson for the Lung Cancer Alliance. The Iron Man recently spoke with Stand Up To Cancer:
SU2C: What connection do you have to Cancer? How have you been affected by the disease?
Cal: In 1999 I lost my father to lung cancer and it was a very painful time in my life. It seems as though everyone has been affected by cancer in one way or another.
How did you become involved with the Lung Cancer Alliance?
The Lung Cancer Alliance contacted my office. I heard about the good work that they do through the people who help run the Cal Ripken Sr. Foundation and it seemed like an organization that I would like to assist.
What are the key things you want people to be aware of when it comes to Lung Cancer?
The good news is that there is so much more information at our fingertips these days about the dangers of tobacco use and the inherent cancer risks. I would just encourage people to make themselves aware of the risks and educate their children about those risks.
Why do you think baseball and baseball players seem to have such a strong commitment to the fight against cancer? From your advocacy on Lung Cancer to MLB's Father's Day and Mother's Day initiatives to their 10 million dollar donation to Stand Up To Cancer, there is a diverse support from a variety of angles. Is there a league wide awareness among players that you've noticed?
I don't know. It seems as though Major League Baseball is committed to the fight against cancer and that is great. As I mentioned earlier so many people have been affected by cancer in so many different ways that it makes sense to see segments of society, in this case ballplayers, stepping up to fight against it.
Charity and philanthropy efforts seem to be a central focus for you post-baseball. Do you plan on getting back involved in the game as a coach professionally?
I have taken a lot of pride in what we have been able to do for disadvantaged kids through the Cal Ripken, Sr. Foundation. As for coaching at the major league level there are certain aspects that are interesting to me but my greater interest would be an opportunity to shape an entire organization. Whether or not an opportunity like that ever presents itself remains to be seen.
You seem to have taken on so many different responsibilities now that your playing career is over. After 2632 games in a row, didn't you want to just go on vacation for a few decades?
I am just not built that way I guess. Towards the middle to the end of my playing career I started to think about what I wanted to do next because I would be a young guy when I retired. I knew that baseball would be a focus and we have been able to grow our business primarily focused on youth baseball and minor league baseball.
You're an inspiration to baseball fans everywhere, a paragon of excellence, endurance and perseverance. How cool is it being Cal Ripken, Jr.?
I really don't know how to answer a question like that. I am a very normal guy with a wonderful family. I have been very fortunate to have had some success during my playing career and sometimes I get a little more attention than I deserve because of that.
The Lung Cancer Alliance is a national nonprofit organization dedicated to providing patient support and advocacy for people living with or at risk of the disease. The Lung Cancer Alliance is helping to reverse decades of stigma and neglect by empowering patients, elevating awareness, and changing health policy.
SU2C is working with the top experts in cancer research to forge a new way to develop breakthroughs that will end cancer. Tune in September 5th and find out more.

The combination of the Internet and emerging technologies such as nearfield communications, real-time localization, and embedded sensors lets us transform everyday objects into smart objects that can understand and react to their environment. Such objects are building blocks for the Internet of Things and enable novel computing applications. As a step toward design and architectural principles for smart objects, the authors introduce a hierarchy of architectures with increasing levels of real-world awareness and interactivity. In particular, they describe activity-, policy-, and process-aware smart objects and demonstrate how the respective architectural abstractions support increasingly complex application.

NARITA, Chiba Pref. — The Dalai Lama on Thursday again voiced support for China's hosting of the Olympic Games and called on protesters to stick to nonviolent activities during the chaotic round-the-world torch relay.
"From the beginning, we support the Olympic Games," the Tibetan spiritual leader told reporters packed into a small hall at a hotel near Narita International Airport during a brief stopover on the way to the U.S.
He said he is opposed to violent protests of any kind because they hurt the freedom of speech — which he said Tibet badly needs but is not allowed under Chinese control.
The Dalai Lama also emphasized that the purpose of his two-week stay in the U.S. is to meet with supporters and promote human compassion and harmony among different religions. The trip, including his short transit in Japan, is not politically motivated in any way, he said.
"I have no particular thing to say here," he humorously added, prompting reporters to burst into laughter.
But the Dalai Lama responded passionately when he was asked to give a message to the Chinese people about the recent riots in Tibet.
He reiterated that his government in exile and the Tibetan people have sought no independence from China, but only maintenance of their culture, religion and language as well as "realistic autonomy" except for diplomacy and defense. He said the only autonomy that exists now is on paper.
China accuses the Dalai Lama of masterminding the rioting that started March 10 in Lhasa, which he categorically denies.


text: The third annual survey from Discover Student Loans reveals that while 96 percent of parents continue to see the value of a college education, 85 percent are very or somewhat worried that student loan debt will affect their child's ability to buy a home, car or other large purchase after college. Although parents are concerned about student loan debt, they appear less likely to include the price of a university in the decision-making process. Forty-eight percent of parents said that cost would not be a factor when choosing a college, an 8 percent increase from 2013. Forty-four percent of parents said they were planning to limit college choices based on price and 9 percent were not sure, both decreases from the previous year. "It is promising to see families recognize the investment in a college education and are considering their children's long-term financial health beyond graduation," said Danny Ray, president of Discover Student Loans. "We hope that this annual survey brings to light the need for families to review all of their options when going to college. We encourage students to always use free money first when financing a college education and then, if needed, determine what lending options work best for their needs." Parents Still Worry about Cost Seventy-seven percent of parents said they plan to help their child pay for college, a slight decrease from 81 percent in 2013. Sixteen percent of families don't plan on contributing anything. While families want to help pay for college, parents routinely said they are worried about having enough money. Throughout the last three years, numbers have remained fairly consistent with three out of four families saying they are very or somewhat worried about having enough money to cover college costs. A quarter of parents are not very or not at all worried about having enough money.

(Adds background, detail)
By Natalia Zinets
KIEV, July 3 (Reuters) - Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has nominated a new defence minister and appointed a new armed forces chief in a shake up of a military currently driving against Russian separatists despite moves for a new ceasefire.
Poroshenko told deputies on Wednesday night that he wanted Valery Heletey, a 46-year-old colonel-general who heads security at the presidential and parliamentary administration, to replace acting defence minister Mykhailo Koval, his website said.
He also appointed lieutenant-general Viktor Muzhenko, 52, a top official in the military drive against the rebels, to replace Mykhailo Kutsyn as head of the general staff.
Poroshenko was expected to seek endorsement for Heletey's nomination at a session of parliament on Thursday. But debate on "decentralisation" proposals for the regions, which is part of his peace plan, ran into trouble when a key coalition partner came out against them.
The military shake-up follows Poroshenko's rejection of a new ceasefire on Monday night and his decision to resume a full offensive against the separatists in the Russian-speaking east of Ukraine who have set up "people's republics" and said they want to join Russia.
In overnight violence, one Ukrainian soldier was killed when rebels approached in a car bearing a white flag and then opened fire, a military spokesman, Oleksiy Dmytrashkivsky, said.
The border service also said nine border guards were wounded in a rebel mortar attack on their post in Luhansk region on the border with Russia.
Poroshenko's decision to relaunch operations against the rebels won U.S. support but harsh condemnation from Russia.
Moscow denies Poroshenko's charges that it is stoking the conflict by allowing arms and Russian mercenaries to pass across the joint border to reinforce the separatists.
In Berlin on Wednesday the foreign ministers of Russia and Ukraine, after talks with German and French ministers, supported a further meeting of a "contact group" involving separatist leaders and aimed at trying to work out conditions for a more lasting ceasefire.
The group includes a former president of Ukraine, who is informally representing Kiev, Moscow's ambassador to Kiev and a high-ranking official from the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe.
The group should meet "no later than July 5th with the goal of reaching an unconditional and mutually agreed sustainable ceasefire", said a document agreed by all four ministers.
Poroshenko declared a week-long ceasefire on June 20 to give rebels the time to down weapons under an amnesty offered in his peace plan. He extended it by three days on June 27.
But on Monday he refused to prolong it on the advice of his security officials who said the ceasefire had allowed rebels to regroup and rearm, and had cost the lives of government troops.
A total of 200 service personnel have been killed since the start of the conflict, including 150 soldiers, according to Andriy Lytsenko, a spokesman for Ukraine's national security and defence council.
Hundreds of civilians and rebels have also died.
Parliament was also scheduled on Thursday to hear Poroshenko's proposals for constitutional changes that will allow him to press a plan to devolve more powers to the regions.
By giving regions a greater say over their own affairs and finances, and by granting language rights to non-Ukrainian speakers, Poroshenko's "decentralisation" plan aims to address grievances of Russian speakers in the east.
But the parliamentary session went into recess quickly after deputies from the Fatherland party, a key coalition partner whose support Poroshenko requires, stayed away from proceedings.
The party, which is led by former prime minister Yulia Tymoshenko, said later it wanted the debate on the decentralisation plan to be postponed. (Writing by Richard Balmforth Editing by Jeremy Gaunt)

What is the center of your home?
The second most important part of the house is sitting area ( once dining area) right next to the kitchen. It's only big enough for a love seat and cushy chair but that is where the kids chat with me while I cook and where we read stories. There is no television on the main floor of the house.
living room is where we play games and read book. Kitchen we bake. I would love to move to a bigger place so we can have more activities and company over.
We just moved in our new place a month ago so far Our Living room is the central most used space. WE have a large book self that we have packed full of books and toy self. It also the warmest room in the house during the day due to a large bay window and 2 other windeow. Other than that our Kitchen we love to cook and make everything from scratch. Plus we have a small work station there for homework, coloring, and our mail/bill area.
Kitchen everyone is always in the kitchen when I'm making food .We all eat drink and have a great time.
The living room. It's where we spend most of our time together.
Our bedroom, we always have good talks there and good together time.

Suave Professionals Heat Protection Spray Reviews

Great bargain. Might be better products out thereI bought this because of the price tag. It's hard to tell how well it protects my hair because I blow-dry using a low heat setting and use a separate product when I use the straightener. When I do use a higher heat setting on the blow dryer, my hair always comes out soft and shiny. There may be better products out there, but it does well enough for what I need it to. Great value.

Rihanna was the first African American female to grace the cover of GQ but Beyonce isn't far behind! Click here for more bootylicious pics.
Four years ago, Beyonce sang for the President and First Lady at an Inauguration After Party, but this time she's going to the Big Show!
But it was one little sentence posted on Beyonce's Facebook page that seemed to trump these other news bits.
We are so proud to announce the first original Destiny's Child music in eight years!
Kelly Rowland, Beyonce & Michelle Williams team up on a hot new single "Nuclear" to be released on Jan. 29 2013 on the new album "Love Songs", a romantic blend of the groups passionate songs. Peep the tracklist

Dressing for McQueen
Daphne Guinness dresses in Barneys window for McQueen-themed Met Ball.
The annual Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute Gala was held last night in New York, this year themed Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty. The timing couldn't be more appropriate, after Princess Catherine donned a gown by Sarah Burton for McQueen at last Friday's royal wedding.
To coincide with the McQueen retrospective, the Honourable Daphne Guinness - and fellow fashion eccentric - offered herself as performance art in the famed windows of Barneys' Madison Avenue Flagship. As the crowning moment of the department store's Fashion as Art installation, the heiress and couture collector gussied up for the Gala before a hoard of eager onlookers. When asked beforehand about her window-dressing display, Guinness told the New York Times, "I am not doing a burlesque - no way - I am going to be getting dressed behind something. I'm not Dita Von Teese, nor shall I be."
Slinking across the Barneys window, Guinness treated crowds to an interpretive dance before disappearing behind a screen, as promised. When she re-emerged, she was wearing a stunning, feathered McQueen gown. The spectacle lasted a mere seven minutes before the heiress was whisked from Barneys to the Gala in a vintage 1970s Mercedes convertible.
Guinness' stint in the world of performance art is the ultimate tribute to the late Lee McQueen, whose designs have often been likened to artistic masterpieces. This year's paradoxical theme for the Met Ball aptly captures the very essence of McQueen, an avant?garde designer who explored beauty where others dared not venture.
The event's host, Anna Wintour, is the mastermind behind the party and guest list each year. This year she hand-picked Colin Firth and Stella McCartney among her celebrity co-chairs for the ball, with Fran

Monday, Mar. 10 – After a spate of nasty weather, outside has turned the corner for spring. Seems to have, anyway. Temperatures have been in the 50s and 60s since Saturday, and my spring bulbs have started to push up leaves. SOTD: Guerlain Chamade, vintage EdT. The topnotes are a bit off on this one and the aldehydes are nailpolishy, but then they burn off to reveal galbanum and then jasmine-narcissus-rose, followed by that powdery mimosa and vanilla. I've always thought it a very romantic fragrance, in that it turns from crisp and green to flowers and then to that melting, creamy drydown, the epitome of gradual surrender.
SOTE: Ferre 20, which I bought in Rome four years ago, when we went to Malta and then spent a few days in the Eternal City before coming home. It was glorious. I still like this scent, though I don't know that I would buy it now – I might rather save up for my very own bottle of Iris Poudre which I adore. On the other hand, wearing it reminds me of the trip, which I enjoyed very much. This scent is in a similar vein to Iris Poudre, though it's fruitier and perhaps muskier; it doesn't have that fluffy benzoin thing I love so much in IP. I think the musk used is the one that has the blackberry overtones, as in L'Artisan Mure et Musc, because the fruitiness persists into the drydown.
We've had the current track coach staying with us until he finds an apartment in the area. Sirak ("Coach O") has a long unpronounceable surname and parents who came to the US from Eritrea before he was born. He was assistant until last fall, when the former head coach moved on to a job at a larger high school near his hometown. He served as co-head coach for cross-country, and then was not selected to coach indoor track, so he moved to NC for a different non-coaching job. I won't go into it, but the indoor track season was Not A Success (!), and Sirek was invited back to coach outdoor track. He agreed, but since he didn't have a car or a local apartment, he's staying with us in the meantime. I really like him.
Tuesday, Feb. 11 – Another lovely day, temperatures in the 70s. Retesting Arquiste Flor Y Canto and Amouage Beloved Woman. Planning for some roses for the yard… sigh. I want some David Austin ones. Good Bible study this evening; I was almost late because I had to go pick up first Taz from chess club after school, and Gaze from track, where they had a "mini-meet," an in-team competition for racing spots. He only ran the mile and was disappointed in his time, 5:50; in the fall he ran the FIRST mile of a cross-country meet (usually it's approximately a 5K, approximately 3.1 miles) in 5:23. But he placed behind the three guys he was expecting to follow, so he just needs to pick it up a little.
SOTE: Ferre 20 again, such a pretty soft thing.
Wednesday, Feb. 12 – Temperatures high in the 60s again today, but cloudy. Wearing Aspen for Women. Up close it's actually sort of horrible, and I can tell it's deteriorating badly, but the waft two inches above my wrist is still very nice, a fresh-breezy, piney woody floral.
Testing Houbigant Oranger en Fleurs – on first sniff, it's reminding me of something I wore when I was younger. Like, MUCH younger. Don't know what.
Thursday, Feb. 13 – SNOW this morning. No school. By 11:30 everything was completely clear, so I don't know what the closing was for… anyway, we built a nice fire. SOTD: Caron Or et Noir. I was leery, because, you know, Caron. Eep. On the other hand, I love Parfum Sacre, acknowledged to have been inspired by Or et Noir. The similarity between the two is only noticeable to me well into the drydown. The topnotes are rather… um. Shrieky? This is a horridly sour rose for the first ten minutes, and then it calms down, and by half an hour in, it's wearable. Lovely incense/benzoin stuff. I just don't think I can handle the topnotes.
HEY I figured out what Oranger en Fleurs is reminding me of: Diane von Furstenberg Tatiana, the vintage parfum. That's spicier, less soft, more lily and less orange blossom, but similar. (Funny, a LOT of things seem to remind me of Tatiana – probably because it's a reference "mixed white floral" scent for me personally, and that's certainly a well-represented genre. But possibly also because while it might not have been wildly innovative, it certainly smelled lovely. I think it's still in production but smells nothing like its original self.)
Friday, Feb. 14 – Bookworm came home! She's been at an Ultimate Frisbee tournament on the Georgia coast this week, and some friends drove her here on their way to Washington, DC. I fed them dinner and hugged my girl a lot. So happy to see her. SOTD: Parfums d'Empire Osmanthus Interdite. So pretty; apricotty osmanthus and lots of rose.
Saturday, Feb. 15 – Absolutely gorgeous weather today. GORGEOUS. Upper 60s, breezy. SOTD: The Body Shop Moringa Body Butter. The CEO and Bookworm went to the high school to help administer the Western Division MACC tournament today. Gaze is on the Social Studies team, the Western Division regular-season champs. (Bookworm was captain of the Science team two years running. She misses it.) As it turned out, the Social Studies team did not win the tournament but will advance to the Super MACC tournament against the Eastern Division regular-season and tournament champions next weekend.
Afterwards, Grey – a friend of both Gaze's and Bookworm's from Cross-Country/Track/Band/MACC – came over and brought his AirSoft rifles. He and Gaze wore camo and went skulking around in the woods shooting at each other, and Bookworm observed, in bright orange tee-shirt. The CEO and Sirak went out on the farm and plotted out a possible cross-country course for the coming fall. Gaze and Grey went out and ran the thing. Their verdict was: tough course. Can't do it if it rains, it's way too muddy. Lots of steep uphills, and the downhills are more gentle, the way it's laid out. By their approximation, however, there are two other courses on their regular meet rotation that are more of a pain to run, so they approve.
SOTE: Cuir de Lancome. Grey stayed for dinner and told terrible, really funny science jokes. He'll be attending Virginia Tech in the fall, in their well-regarded College of Engineering, but would like to do Air Force ROTC as he's particularly interested in military applications… he has yet to talk his parents into allowing that. I myself would not worry overmuch about the safety of my child as an Air Force engineer, as those people rarely spend time at the front, even on deployment. They are (and this is rather horrible to say, but it happens to be true) too valuable to be wasted there. I would worry about a kid in the Marines, or even in the Army, far more than one in the AF.
Watched a rented copy of "The Great Gatsby." Interesting film version… like everybody else my age, I studied the book in 11th grade English class, and although I absolutely despise every character in it (yes, even Nick), the writing is just so lovely. Certain phrasings stick in the mind forever. "And so we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past." I'm not sure it's true, but it is beautiful. And depressing. And I hate that I love the sound of that sentence.
Sunday, Feb. 16 – Church today; SOTD was Amouage Lyric Woman. I go through spells of craving Lyric – its sweet translucent rose, its vanilla- and benzoin-infused incense, its dry woods. There is that strange almost mango-y thing in the topnotes, but I like that part too. Lyric always strikes me as being very meditative, quiet and calm without being too austere.
Bookworm has a friend who lives in her dorm at Yale who, although he lives in Wisconsin, has been visiting his sister at Virginia Tech this week. They'd planned to go hiking at The Cascades (a nice wooded hiking trail up a mountain to a waterfall/small lake), but the weather turned nasty again today with rain and sleet, so instead he came over and played Trivial Pursuit with us all afternoon and then had dinner.
So nice to hear Taz playing his trumpet this evening too. He's really making progress. SOTE: Cuir de Lancome. Such pretty stuff.
And Monday is St. Patrick's Day. Let the green smells abound.

New interim executive director named for state brand committee

Rodeo Queens, ambassadors, hobbyists, businesses and hostesses rode horses, cars, stagecoaches, carriages and floats along the two-mile route on E. Fourth and N. Jeffers streets.
The parade lasted nearly two hours.
Todd and Anne Bisell were the grand marshals, having won the 2014 Dale Studley Memorial award for outstanding contributions to Nebraskaland Days every year. They rode in a spritely carriage pulled by a grey Percheron gelding, owned by Brenda Grant of BG Stables of North Platte.
Bissell served on the Nebraskland Days board of directors from 1993-96 and is active with the Cody Cavalry. He has served on the arena and security committees and used his mechanical expertise to help build a number of things in and around the Wild West Arena, Nebraskaland Days Executive Director David Fudge said.
Todd and Ann volunteer throughout the celebration. and have cooked countless amounts of food for gatherings for performing artists and Miss Rodeo Nebraska functions. They donate their time and his equipment freely, Fudge said.
"Todd is a great example of what it means to be a member of the Nebraskaland Days family," Fudge said. "He's a valued friend and answers the call whenever and wherever we need him."
Grant's Percheron Turbo is a dapple grey, 6-year-old that weighs 1,800 pounds.
The number of entries in the parade was 8% higher than a year ago.
Kids cleaned up on candy, gathering it up by the bagful.
The Bulletin staff handed out its 12th annual special parade edition all along the route, featuring an in-depth report about the wild bucking stock the Beutler and Son provide each year for the Buffalo Bill Rodeo. (If you didn't get a copy, we have a few left at the office.)

Teenagers Weatherby project
Greetings, Gentlemen,
Was the year 1955. I was very fortunate to belong to a small group of friends who shared their love of shooting, reloading, and building of fine rifles. Earlier in 1952, my high school industrial arts teacher, Herb Ralston, came to me one day and said " I think you should meet a few men that share your same interests". He introduced me to the group. Fine bunch of fellows, and we hit it off instantly. There was Charlie Brown, watchmaker and gunsmith. Levi Thomas,big game hunter. Homer Powley, chemist,shooter, and inventor. Miller Bedford, shooter and businessman. Sorry to say, they have all passed. I was the youngest of the group. Writing this brings back many memories.
They used to kid me about my little 257 R pop gun. That got me to thinking about maybe it was time for something bigger. Why not a .300 Weatherby. I read alot about it and was infatuated. This would be it.
Ran across an excellent 1917 Enfield (Eddystone) for $35.00. I picked the Enfield because it was the strongest of the military actions. I wrote to Roy Weatherby about renting his chambering reamers. He sent me the reamers and two cartridges. Only charged $20.00 plus deposit.
Bausch & Lomb just came out with the Balvar 8. Bought the scope and mount for $156.00, if my memory serves me. Adjustments were in the mount. At the time I saw no problem with that. From Herters I got a muzzle brake. Didn't know what recoil to expect and didn't want the scope in my spectacles. The brake was chambered with two rearward facing slots in the top. Niedner steel grip cap and butt plate. Always liked the looks of them.
Flush mounted quick detachable sling swivels. Found a beautiful 3" chunk of marble walnut for the stock from Kindig in Lodi, Ohio.
While I was gathering up all this stuff, Charlie faced the bolt, chambered the original barrel, with 3/4" freebore, and installed the muzzle brake for me. Did a fantastic job.
My turn. Reshaped bolt handle. Opened up and lengthened magazine well for larger cartridges. Lengthened magazine. Cut and welded lower iron to remove step. Shortened action screws to raise lower stock line. Modified trigger assembly to my adjustable design. Ground rear sight ears off and reshaped receiver bridge. Welded plug in oval hole in top off bridge. Drilled and tapped for scope mount. Shortened ejector and reshaped tang end of receiver. Made push button floor plate release. Changed to cock on opening. Jeweled bolt and extractor. Blued in my tanks with my father's formula, which I can no longer remember.
Spent next couple months inletting wood. Fits like it grew on the steel. Shaped stock, installed grip cap, butt plate, finished with Birchwood Casey Tru-Oil. Checkered in fluer de lis design.
Put it all together and ready for testing. Fired twenty 300 H&H Magnums to get some fire formed Weatherby cases for reloading. Loaded with 150 grain Jordan soft swaged bullets, 86 grains IMR 4350, magnum primers. Supposed to go over 3600 fps. We didn't have a cronograph back then. I made an agreement with the group that I wouldn't shoot it until all were present. Done..... 1956.
Later I had to decrease powder charge, as I could only get one or two reloads before the primer hole enlarged too much to hold the primer.
The group was gathered at our 400 yard range to witness their first Weatherby expererience. The rifle had only been bore sighted, so targets were out of the question. A large clump was visible at about 350 yards. Would shoot for that. The quickness that the bullet arrived at it's destination was incredible compared to what we were used to. Levi and Homer wanted to fire it. Charlie wouldn't. They were really impressed. Levi wanted one built for hunting. Homer wanted one built for Camp Perry. (DETAILS SAVED FOR A LATER AND MORE INTERESTING STORY)
I spent the rest of the season trying to get the accuracy from this rifle that I got from the Type 1, but couldn't achieve it. Best was 1 1/4" at 200 yards. After a couple hundred rounds, I noticed the zero was wandering. I found the cones that the scope tube rested on were pounding dents in the tube. Bausch & Lomb told me that couldn't happen and they wouldn't do any thing about it. I used it like that for a few more years then replaced it with a Williams Twi-Light 2 x 6. I Liked Balvar's optics better, but the Twi-Light will get the job done.
I LOVE those old Bolt Actions, too!
I was a .300Wby guy for years, but sold my last one about 5 years ago. Yours is sure beautiful, though.
Might work a trade for another one pretty soon.
that is a heck of a fine looking rifle you built there!
Greetings, M14sRock, dickyo331,
Thank you for the kind words, fellows.
That is incredibly beautiful! Keep showing us your work.
I saw this when you first posted it. I can't believe I didn't comment. :rolleyes:
That's a beautiful rifle and a great story. Thanks.

Sorry for digging up an old thread, but this seems an appropriate place to post the diamond in the rough 300 Weatherby I scored today for $100 that came from your neck of the woods. It is built off a Remington P14 action, with a beatifully figured piece of walnut. It weighs a rather rotund 13 pounds, with a heavy barrel fitted with a Johnson automatics brake.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 25/9/2012 (1792 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The Crown is seeking an 18-month jail sentence for a 32-year-old Winnipeg woman who had sex with a 13-year-old boy.
Samantha Mason was convicted of sexual assault earlier this year on the grounds the victim was too young to give legal consent under the Criminal Code.
Mason has serious mental-health problems and had just been released from a psychiatric facility when the incident happened, court was told.
Mason moved in with a friend, who is the parent of a teenage daughter. One day the 13-year-old boy visited the daughter. A drunken Mason convinced the boy to sneak away for sex.
The Crown admitted the typical starting point for a sexual-assault sentence is about three years in prison, but said they were asking for much less based on the "mitigating" factors in this case including Mason's mental state.
Mason's lawyer has asked for no further jail time, saying her seven months of pre-trial custody is sufficient. The Crown wants an additional 11 months.
Queen's Bench Justice Brenda Keyser will give her decision on Friday.

IndieGoGo assists users in obtaining funding for their ideas. The user can build a page for their project or undertaking. Each page can contain text content as well as a video and images. Visitors can see the user's goal as well as how close they are to reaching it. Users who create a funding campaign on IndieGoGo can outline their plan on the project page. If the funding goal is not reached, the user can still keep funds. Users who contribute funds are encouraged to read the entire project page to see what the user will do with funds if the goal is not reached. Users will receive status updates as the project progresses so they can learn about new developments and progress. Any donations made to non profit projects are tax deductible.Show more screenshots »
IndieGoGo was founded in January of 2008 by Slava Rubin, Eric Schell and Danae Ringelmann. The basis of the application was built around the idea that there are many people with good ideas that have few options when it comes to funding those ideas. The founders hoped to build a network that allowed people to support one another through crowdfunding. Donators could choose projects they liked or felt strongly about while receiving something in return (determined by the person funding the project). To date, IndieGoGo has helped users from over 200 countries manage more than 40,000 campaigns which raised millions of dollars in funding. The site currently supports projects in a variety of interests and industries, from music and visual arts to computer programming, activism, publication and fashion design.
IndieGoGo works much like many other crowdfunding websites. The user creates a profile for their project that contains all relevant information and media. Others can supply funding of any amount, starting at one dollar. What makes IndieGoGo a little different is the site's rules on unreached goals. While other sites like Kickstarter do not take pledged funds from the donator unless the overall financial goal is reached, IndieGoGo allows users to keep the funds generated from their campaigns regardless. This gives the user more flexibility, although it may turn off some potential donators.
IndieGoGo looks very similar to other crowdfunding websites. The site favors a more dramatic color scheme, with a solid black header and hints of orange, pink and green found throughout. The differences end there because the site looks very similar to its competitors. The project pages are very easy to navigate, with videos and images found among text content while perks and funding progress is displayed along the right side. This design may not be original, but it certainly works well for this type of website.
A new user can join the IndieGoGo community by clicking the pink "Sign Up" link in the upper, right hand corner of the homepage (above the campaign search tool). A narrow pop up box will appear and asks the user to click the blue "Connect" button to register using a Facebook account. A "No, Thanks" option is available on the pop up box, this will direct the user to the registration form. The form requires a valid email address and password. After submitting the form, the user is automatically logged in to IndieGoGo.
All visitors to IndieGoGo can create a new account for free. No subscription is required and the user can search for projects or list their own. Users are not required to donate to maintain an account, either. The user can contribute to as many or as few projects as they like. Users who host a funding campaign on IndieGoGo are charged a 4% fee on the total money raised when they meet their financial goal. Other than the fee, there are no other expenses associated with creating or maintaining an IndieGoGo account.
IndieGoGo.com is a great resource for anyone who has an idea that needs funding. The application makes financial support obtainable for the average person. Users can also become a party of a project by contributing any dollar amount to show their support. The site does not require full funding for the user to receive the donations submitted to their project, so it may appeal more to some users than sites that require complete funding.

Radius & Ulna Fractures
The two main bones of the forearm are the radius and
the ulna (see illustration at left). Broken bones occur when
there is a sudden, acute pressure, such as a fall on an outstretched
wrist. The most common break usually involves the end of the radius
and a portion of the ulna bone known as the ulnar styloid (see
illustration). Pieces of the broken bone are displaced out of
their normal position. The force causing the break in bones is quite
significant, and naturally that force also can tear the ligament
connections between the bones (see illustration).
Treatment of most fractures consists of realigning
the bones in their normal position. Most commonly this is done without
the necessity of surgery. It is held in position by using a cast to
immobilize the wrist, hand, and forearm - usually for 6-8 weeks.
Ligament Damage
During the healing process, scar tissue forms in
ligament connections, and this new, out-of-place tissue increases
distortion and wrist pain. Scar tissue is actually a normal human
response to injury, but nevertheless can cause distortion and
contribute to wrist pain. This scarring and distortion inevitably
results in some degree of wrist pain and stiffness.

According to multiple reports, Rooney who is probably mostly remembered in Andy Hardy movies, passes away after suffering from an illness for some time.
Actor Mickey Rooney who probably is mostly remembered for his appearance as Andy Hardy in "The Hardy Boys" movies has passed away. His son Michael Joseph Rooney confirmed to New York Times that the actor died on Sunday, April 6 at the age of 93. He reportedly suffered from an illness for some time before his death.
Rooney, who was born Joe Yule, Jr. in a Brooklyn, N.Y., spent most of his life in the entertainment industry. He made his first stage appearance when he was 17 months old, taking part in his parents' performances. He later appeared in movies at the age of 6.
Throughout his 87 years of career, he took part in about 200 projects such as "Boys Town" and "The Black Stallion". He also appeared in "National Velvet" starring Elizabeth Taylor and played alongside Audrey Hepburn in "Breakfast at Tiffany's". Most recently, he appeared alongside Ben Stiller in 2006's "Night at the Museum" and "The Muppets" in 2011.
Rooney was awarded with two special Oscars, the Juvenile Award in 1939 and an Honorary Oscar 1983. He also won an Emmy award for his performance as a mentally ill man in 1981's CBS telefilm "Bill". "When I was 19 years old, I was the No. 1 star of the world, for two years. When I was 40, nobody wanted me. I couldn't get a job. And then a professor from the University of Tennessee got a show together with Terry Allen Kramer and Harry Rigby called 'Sugar Babies', and it resurrected my career," he emotionally said in 1983.
Rooney got married eight times. He is survived by his eighth wife Jan Chamberlin whom he married in 1978 and nine children.

ASA 8.0.1 (build 3030 and 3080)
When trying to delete a row from a table with a phantom-lock (another row is
deleted by another connection without commit) you get the error "error 42W18
User '%1' has the row in '%2' lock"
However, if the delete is repeated enough times (empiric - 12 times), the
error changes to "Error 24000 - Cursor not in a valid state"
This behaveiour is new, it was not there in SQA 5.5.
Has anyone seen this ? (or even better, has a soloution ?)
To test this behaveiour:
1. Start 2 connections to the database (ASA 8.0.1 3030 / 3080)
2. Run the attached file (DoKuku.sql) in one of the connections.
3. Follow the sequence below (note - 2 connections)
-- 3.1. Connection 1:
call inskuku(1);
-- 3.2. connection 2:
call inskuku(2);
-- kuku has now 2 rows (Kid, Kval) : (1,1) and (2,2)
-- 3.3. Connection 1:
call delkuku(1);
-- 3.4. connection 2:
call delkuku(2);
repeat 3.4 and Watch the message window.
In our test, the first 11 executions report SQLSTATE = 42W18.
Execution no` 12 reports SQLSTATE = 24000.
(If you don`t get it within 12 executions, try some more).

UML Activity Diagrams
UModel Activity Diagram Features:
- Toolbar for quick access to activity diagram elements
- Fork nodes, join nodes, and activity partition elements in both horizontal and vertical orientation
- Pull-down menus to set characteristics of input pins, output pins, and value pins
- Special activity diagram entry helpers and fast editing buttons
- Elements can be assigned to diagram layers and selectively viewed or hidden
- Unlimited undo/redo encourages exploring new ideas
Activity Diagrams Chart the Flow of Actions and Illustrate Decision Points in Your Project
You'll find the features of UModel® 2017 to be advantageous and versatile as you draw UML activity diagrams to chart the dynamic behavior of your project. The UModel activity diagram toolbar includes fork nodes, join nodes, and activity partitions in both horizontal and vertical orientation so you can select the element you need in a single step.
If you want to formally indicate the semantics of activity initializations, the input pin, output pin, and value pin elements are similarly organized. When you place a pin, the Properties dialog offers pull-down menus to set all its characteristics.
The UML 2 specification greatly expanded the features and scope of activity diagrams beyond their earlier classification as a special case of state diagrams. Today, activity diagrams are flow charts for the 21st century, and UML modelers use activity diagrams to describe business rules, single use cases, a complex series of multiple use cases, processes with decision points and alternate flows, operations that take place in parallel or software flows and logic control structures.
Whether you are an analyst assigned to diagram business rules, or a developer who needs to document all the subtle features of an embedded system, UModel makes it easy to draw UML 2 activity diagrams that chart the dynamic behavior of your project and communicate your designs accurately and effectively.
Swim Lanes
Separate toolbar buttons let you insert horizontal or vertical swim lanes (activity partitions), but if you start with one orientation and decide you would rather use the other, the flip fast editing button changes the orientation so you don't have to start over from scratch.
More Software Modeling Tools:
- SysML activity diagrams
- Business process modeling (BPMN)
- Automated project documentation
- Model Driven Architecture
- Teamwork support

The result comes hot in the heels of a survey by Markit/Chartered Institute of Purchasing and Supply* showing that house building activity in April reached its highest level since the recession with developers resuming projects to meet increasing demand from homebuyers.
"We are delighted with the volume of land deals completed since the start of this year, not least because it shows the industry is now moving in the right direction," says Iain Berry, Regional Land & New Homes Director for Connells. "We know from our estate agency branches that there is a marked increase in the number of people registering an interest to move home this year and developers need to act quickly if they want to take advantage of this surge in demand."
According to the recent Markit/Chartered Institute of Purchasing and Supply survey, which works on an index where 50 is flat growth, construction activity in April had risen from 53.1 to 58.2. Residential building has risen to 60.3 on the index, its highest level since August 2007.
The Connells Land & Planning team, which specialises in land disposal and acquisition as well as appraisals and valuations, is urging private land owners looking to sell this year to come to market at soon as possible. "There is growing confidence across the housing market and we are quietly optimistic that an increasing number of plots will become available once this confidence begins to infiltrate the land owner community," Iain explains.
"Land is currently in high demand, so we would urge anyone looking to sell in 2010 to get in touch now to discuss your options," says Iain.

She is a Kiwi often claimed as our own, Kimbra Lee Johnson, but in the form of The Golden Echo becomes a conscious culmination of genres, blended up and served in a tall frosted glass.
It was a bold risk to take a path of diversity without trying to alienate fans of her debut Vows, which hinted at soulful, indie pop. The sophomore release appears slightly self-indulgent; it's quirky, but accessible and several steps removed, but forward, of its predecessor.
It would be naive to judge the album solely on the first single '90's Music'. While it is the most contorted track here, unapologetic in sound and hysterical in expression, Kimbra is simply paying homage to the decade in which she was born.
Despite the big names who contributed in one shape or form on the album; most notably Matt Bellamy (of Muse), Matt Chamberlain (Pearl Jam, Soundgarden) Mark Foster (Foster The People) and Daniel Johns (Silverchair, The Dissociatives), the end result is still distinctly Kimbra.
Rather than sounding like a forced amalgamation of powerhouses creating a few great tracks and pack the rest of the time with filler, the end product is deliberate and yet stretches into a myriad of directions with apparent ease.
Some rhythms and beats are influenced by Prince, Janet Jackson (see 'Madhouse'), and pretty much anything RnB from the late 80's to mid-90's. Others take on more subtle tones; 'Teen Heat' is tame, yet sexy, 'As You Are' is theatrically demanding and showcases her shrill voice.
Second single 'Miracle' is shiny gospel. If the film clip doesn't feature a mirror-ball I'll be sorely disappointed. 'Nobody But You' is a layered, colourful soul and if only I was in Carolina listening to 'Carolina'; the rising chorus reeks of a shimmering, golden sun. If somebody could please rap a verse on 'Goldmine' that'd be great, I'm not fazed if it's phoned-in. Though sounding complete, there is still space to move and grow.
Kimbra's vocal harmonies are second to none, dutifully woven in between silky synths and atop psychedelic bass. The lack of impression of an overbearing collaborator points to the control over not only her creativity but the power with which to direct it. And yet at no point do you feel like she is holding back.
Like fellow countrywoman Lorde's album Pure Heroine, The Golden Echo may fail to fit into a single genre but will manage to nestle its way into the popular landscape. As an album, it has a noble current where transition is seamless and steers away from sounding too much like each track is holed up within its own thoughts. While some struggle with second-album-blues, Kimbra has just placed a bigger target on herself for whatever lies ahead. Luckily for her, so far everything she's touched has turned to gold.
