Nonlinear response function for time-domain and frequency-domain four-wave mixing
JOSA B, Vol. 3, Issue 4, pp. 595-606 (1986)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (1415 KB)
A unified theory of time-domain and frequency-domain four-wave mixing processes, which is based on the nonlinear response function R(t3, t2, t1), is developed. The response function is expressed in terms of the four-point correlation function of the dipole operator F(τ1, τ2, τ3, τ4) and is evaluated explicitly for a stochastic model of line broadening that holds for any correlation time of the bath. Our results interpolate between the fast-modulation limit, in which the optical Bloch equations are valid, and the static limit of inhomogeneous line broadening. As an example of the relationship between time-domain and frequency-domain four-wave mixing, we compare the capabilities of steady-state and transient coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy experiments to probe the vibrational dynamics in ground and excited electronic states.

Never heard anyone talk about the clarins lipsticks before - they look so nice! Ooh green liner, I like :) also (random question) how did you do your header? I've been trying for ages to do a similar thing to the 'Katy' in my header
Katy xx I'm so jealous of anyone with an Hourglass blush! I'm on a spending ban and dying to break it. I love the colour you have, surprisingly I haven't seen it before but I feel like that's the colour I'd be most inclined to buy xxx
Verity | Life of VerityThe Hourglass blush is beautiful! I definitely want to give one a try but after swatching them, I didn't find any of the shades to be particularly unique. They look beautiful in the pan but when they're on, they're not different enough from some of my current favourites to be worth the high price tag. I'll probably crack and end up getting one at some point anyway though. That tends to happen. xx

10 Top Innovative Companies
2. Apple
When your product is left in a bar, completely torn down by Gizmodo, completely revealed to the world two weeks before launch, plagued with bad press over antenna problems immediately afterward and more than 14 million people
still want one, that's the sign of a great innovator. Oddly, the iPhone 4 and its insanely high-resolution "Retina display," HD camera, FaceTime video conferencing, new version of iOS with AirPlay and AirPrint wireless functions weren't even Apple's biggest leap forward this year.
For all of their smartphone, monitor and Mac advances this year, this will be remembered as the year iPad made people ask "What's a netbook?" and "Why do we need an eReader?" as they snapped up 7.5 million iPads in six months en route to a record $20.4 billion fourth quarter and a nearly 53% share price increase for Apple. With the rest of the tech world playing tablet catchup, Steve Jobs had good reason to smirk from his Infinite Loop stage this year.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes, act as biological effectors and as carriers of oncogenic signatures in human cancer. The molecular composition and accessibility of EVs in biofluids open unprecedented diagnostic opportunities in malignancies where tumour tissue is difficult to sample, especially in primary and metastatic brain tumours. The ongoing genetic discovery of driver mutations defines the ever increasing numbers of distinct molecular subtypes of brain tumours (orphan diseases), a complexity that may soon be translated into alterations in functional proteins and their oncogenic networks. This may likely be extended to real time changes engendered by the disease progression, tumour heterogeneity, inter-individual variations and therapeutic responses. Meeting these challenges through EV analysis is dependent on technological progress in such areas as generation of mutation- and phospho-specific antibodies, antibody array platforms, nanotechnology, microfluidics, NMR spectroscopy, MS and MRM approaches of quantitative proteomics, which should not be underestimated. Still, vesiculation emerges as a unique process that could be harnessed for the benefit of more individualised patient care.


text: Akin passes on last chance to drop out, Republicans write off Senate seatBy Dana Bash, CNN Senior Congressional CorrespondentUpdated 8:00 PM ET, Tue September 25, 2012Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich is backing the embattled Senate bid of Rep. Todd Akin, background. Story highlightsAfter controversial comments on rape, Todd Akin pressured by GOP leaders to drop outMissouri congressman still has some support from conservativesSome Republican strategists admit Missouri situation damages hopes of winning Senate controlInstead giving in to fellow Republicans desperate for him to drop out of the Missouri Senate race, a defiant Todd Akin gathered conservative supporters and launched a campaign bus tour."I have one purpose going into November and that's replacing [Democratic Senator] Claire McCaskill," the congressman said to an applauding crowd in St. Louis on Tuesday, the last day state law permitted him to remove his name from the ballot."A number of people have asked me if I'm dropping out," said Akin, whose controversial comments on rape and pregnancy in August triggered a national uproar and turned him into a political pariah.He added that this is "not my decision," but rather the decision of Republican voters who chose him this summer as their candidate against McCaskill in a race considered crucial for control of the Senate.Akin ad focuses on McCaskillSenior Republican sources told CNN that they gave up on pushing Akin out of the contest some time ago after he refused to bow to pressure. The Republican Party chairman, GOP congressional leaders, Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan joined together to publicly call on him to step aside.Just WatchedGet Real!

They won't give Akin a dime, nor will leading outside groups with deep pockets like Crossroads GPS.Huckabee, Gingrich blast Rove for 'murder' commentBut Akin still has support from some high-profile conservatives like Newt Gingrich, who is helping to raise money.The former House speaker campaigned with Akin on Monday and chastised the GOP establishment for abandoning him. Akin backers are also hoping to win support and money from Sen. Jim DeMint, R-South Carolina, who has a track record of helping the most conservative Senate candidates.Huckabee rallies Missouri pastors to Akin's sideAkin advisers insist that polls show he is still competitive and that national Republicans will have egg on their faces when he proves them wrong by winning in November.But national GOP strategists say they believe the only reason the race is close is because McCaskill has been waiting for the legal deadline for Akin to drop out to pass before going after him.She agrees with national Republicans that Akin is the most beatable of any GOP candidate -- especially since his incendiary gaffe. McCaskill has been limiting her television ads to promoting herself instead of slamming her opponent. Republican strategists who have written off the Missouri race admit it has put GOP chances for seizing the Senate majority at major risk.A look the math helps explain why: Republicans currently hold 47 of 100 seats. To win outright control, they must pick up four seats that are held by Democrats, assuming they lose none themselves.The most likely place for a GOP win is the open Democratic seat in Nebraska. Other states in the toss up column that Republican strategists say they're hoping to snatch include North Dakota, Wisconsin, Montana, Connecticut, Virginia and Ohio. What makes the GOP road to the Senate majority even tougher is that polls show Republicans risk losing two seats: Scott Brown's in Massachusetts and the one left open in Maine by retiring Olympia Snowe.If Republicans lose those seats, which GOP strategists tell CNN is quite possible, they admit they would have to sweep the toss-up races to take control of the chamber.That's doable, GOP sources say, but very difficult.Polls: GOP Senate takeover might be tougherIt's a surprising struggle for Republicans, given that the majority of senators up for re-election are Democrats, and the national climate -- namely the weak economy -- has been bad for Democrats. Republican strategists charged with winning enough seats to retake the Senate majority told CNN that one reason it has become more difficult than they expected is because Romney is struggling in the presidential race.That's especially true, these sources said, in the presidential battlegrounds of Virginia, Ohio and Wisconsin where Romney has fallen behind President Barack Obama and, according to one GOP source, is "dragging Senate candidates down with him."More from politicsWhite House warns Netanyahu not to reveal Iran detailsObama warns cop body cameras are no 'panacea'Clinton to announce sooner rather than later as GOP takes aim at her family's foundationPowered by Livefyre

Clock Day 2011 The tenth anniversary of B!
Author Comments
I hadn't seen it done before, so I thought I'd write and record a holiday song celebrating Clock Day. It will be sung for years to come by children eager to spend the day gratefully worshiping StrawberryClock.
I performed everything as well as did the voice acting with some help from my old lady.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Great tune!
I think we could always use more Clock Day songs. This flash also presents a great way to spread the word of Clock. Fived.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
The ability to overcome technical issues makes ones work more unique. Separates the cans from the cannots.
You sir have achieved that, and I salute you.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I love the song, and personally, I think your computer issues made the flash funnier

A.M. Best Places Ratings Of Harleysville Mutual Insurance Company And Its Subsidiaries Under Review With Positive Implications
A.M. Best Co. has placed the financial strength rating (FSR) of A (Excellent) and issuer credit ratings (ICR) of "a" of Harleysville Insurance (Harleysville) and its property/casualty pooling members, including the lead company, Harleysville Mutual Insurance Company (Harleysville Mutual) under review with positive implications. All companies are headquartered in Harleysville, PA, except where specified. (See below for a detailed list of the companies and ratings.)
The rating actions reflect that Harleysville has entered into discussions with Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company (Nationwide Mutual) (Columbus, OH), a significantly larger and higher rated organization, to merge Harleysville Mutual into Nationwide Mutual. The transaction remains subject to regulatory approval and is projected to close during the first quarter of 2012. Harleysville's ratings will remain under review through the close of the transaction, allowing time for additional discussions with management. The under review status reflects Nationwide Mutual's geographically complementary distribution channels and the potentially positive impact of the merger on the current Harleysville pool, which may be integrated into the Nationwide Mutual pool on a future date.
Concurrently, the stock of Harleysville's 46% publicly-traded downstream holding company, Harleysville Group Inc. (HGIC) [NASDAQ: HGIC] will be acquired through a holding company within the Nationwide organization. Subsequent to that transaction, HGIC will no longer be publicly traded. Accordingly, A.M. Best has placed the ICR of "bbb" and debt rating of "bbb" on $100 million 5.75% senior unsecured notes, due 2013 under review with positive implications for HGIC.
Additionally, A.M. Best has placed the FSR of A- (Excellent) and ICR of "a-" of Harleysville Life Insurance Company (Harleysville Life) under review with developing implications. These ratings will remain under review until A.M. Best meets with management and discusses the strategic plan for Harleysville Life, going forward.
The FSR of A (Excellent) and ICR of "a" have been placed under review with positive implications for Harleysville Insurance and its following property/casualty members:- Harleysville Mutual Insurance Company
- Harleysville Insurance Company of New York
- Harleysville Worcester Insurance Company
- Harleysville-Atlantic Insurance Company
- Harleysville Insurance Company of New Jersey
- Harleysville Insurance Company of Ohio
- Harleysville Insurance Company
- Harleysville Lake States Insurance Company
- Harleysville Preferred Insurance Company
- Harleysville Pennland Insurance Company

I'm a horror addict... and i have been since 2003. I First Played Penumbra in 2006 when it was first released and i loved it, Ever since i played penumbra i followed Frictional's Projects... Then came Amnesia. Once i played it i instantly knew this was the scariest game in years. Once Custom Stories became more popular i decided to grab an old Horror Story of my own and turned it into a mod... and the result was shit. I Became better at the HPL 2 Editor and soon i started working on In Her Memory. I've suffered from Depression for years and it doesn't bother me so much but since last month it's gotten worse. I'm a very talkative person and i'm quite friendly. That's it i guess...
Looks really nice ^^ really liking the structure of the mansion//castle
Lookin Good! I'll have to keep my eye on this...
Somebody didn't pay their bar tab...
Looks really impressive! Really looking forward to this.
Mmmmmm I CAN FEEL THE COLD SCOTTISH AIR LOOKING AT THIS!
You should probably lower the brightness of the billboards, because they are pretty strong right now.
Also the color looks highly unrealistic but thats just my opinion. you should experiment and test more with the colours
They didn't create diddly jack except for the music. Those are all Frictional's Penumbra assets.
Thanks guys! Its early in development and i'll be posting a news update on people to help out with SoN.
You'll need to put that in the textures folder in envmaps.
Haha, I Do watch his lets plays yes, that is part of the manor map in IHM
You'll see some gameplay soon, i still need to get a couple of maps underway to make the upcoming trailer
This is better then outlast in so many ways IMO
Does Indemonai mean anything or is it just a name?
Fisk, The Main Character.
Looks good, The lighting is quite similar to AMFP. I Guess this is the london sewers?
Looks good, could use some ambient lighting like moon light shining down or street lights. Nice name for the town.
Exactly, its a minor setback and i know other people who had this issue before.
You've built up an interesting concept and it looks good. Can't wait to play this and end up excessively writing notes saying MY EYES!
This looks impressive, Tracking.
Is this going to be free when released?
Nice! kinda like the phonograph and the phonautograph from amfp.
Good luck with the mod!
That's Very impressive! Did you use 3ds Max to make that or a different software?
Ive changed it a bit... screenshot soon.
That will be revealed soon...
I Just want to say that i'm impressed how your game looks and good luck.
Always Watching...
i modified the map. i will get a pic up soon
thats some primo advice.
The cruel stone gives you 1.000 rubles to spend on a hatchet. oh the monolith.
I Hated that place, scared the **** outta me the first time i played S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
I'm not exactly sure what to think. I knew that the place was eerie as hell but to be haunted, that would simply stop me from going back there.
I Just wanna say you make brilliant maps on the HPL engine.
That All rather depends on what one considers to be a PIG.
This is creeping me out. Maybe the bloodsuckers killed everyone.
Great work on Ildefonse, It's one of the scariest free indie horror games i've played since White Day.
Thank **** i'm tracking this mod.
Finally! yes! A Eyeless Jack Game. finally!
I Guess most of you stalkers are asking, why is there a giant ******* brain suspended in a giant glass jar by metal piping and wires? well we have no idea... the kaymanov emitter used in x-16 was a specially modified one to emit small scale non-lethal emissions. until some idiot spilled vodka on the coolant controls and caused it to go Ahab.
****, i didn't notice that. when i done my playthrough i payed more attention on not getting killed.
those giant boobies are the generators, they are in the alpha/beta builds of the original game
When that **** does play it... Actual Amnesia players (NOT PEWDIECUNTS FANCUNTS!) will commit suicide everywhere
Are you seriously Trolling right now?
i know, dayz is just embarrassing it self
i know they really got to improve the slender model
Does the cassette mean something?
Hey would you be able to email me some photos of Disponentbostaden, my email is on my profile, plus i might do a drawing of the place, by the way great work on disponentia
Sawers ****** up wife? Påsatt Up monster med två motorsågar? (swedish for ****** Up monster with two chainsaws)
you do know that atin's armor was black right like darman's
and fi's armor looked like niner's but the blue was darker
This looks like a great mod, well it looks more like a whole new game. Kinda sounds like penumbra... with sort of a cry of fear feel to the maps. Can't wait till its released, Keeping my peepers on this project.
BTW Out of curiosity, What editing program did you use for the trailer?
Voted for Slender: Anxiety!
I'm voting for this game almost definitely. you deserve the votes, this game is something different then most of the slender games i've seen and it's something i'm really looking forward to.
Good Luck AlyProductions!
Definitely voting for FiH.
Wow! It looks great! Disturbing... just as i like it!
Slender Man belongs to the net... so far no slender games got into legal trouble and people are free to make slender games.
The first game's here Greenmeteorteam.com
Mitchell grow up! Slender Man is not owned by anyone, he belongs to the net and anyone is free to make a game based on the legend and i don't even know why parsec is mentioned because frankly he made one game, it wasn't even the first slender game. The first one was a pixelated one made by Green Meteor Team so just stop spamming the page please!
Well it uses assets from it so i guess it does and some of the maps are inspired by AMFP.
thank you... so much.
I Will make some maps in my personal time because it is something that makes happy, That's why i started modding this wonderful game.
Your support keeps me going... it's what keeps me awake at night. my personal life however has gone all grey... i will restart the mod soon.
Thank You.
You got a interesting story here yet i'm not impressed with the mapping in the screenshots. you should probably add a boxlight in the darkened maps to give it more light and fill the empty ones with more entities and such.
It's always good to have a good story and a great set of maps to go with it to get a good mod.
Good Luck!
Not till Late 2014 or early 2015.
Bianca Your artwork for Fear in Hands is scary and excellent. you really are an amazing artist of horror.
Well i look forward to see more of this mod.
Oh... hello baby!
The people who made Killings in Altstadt and Tenebris Lake are making a game? This i'm really looking forward to, It has an interesting story to it as well.
I'm tracking, you have a good project here Edvin.
I Copied them from AMFP to the static objects and entities folders in TDD. I Then added the files into my mods folder.
Dammit Source SDK jävla gud! varför måste du vara så jävla un-lyhörd!
Looks creepy! good luck.
Holy **** that's amazing! how'd you get that awesome lighting effect?
This has potential ^^ i'll keep my eye on this one.
I swear i set the light to cast shadows, i'll have to check the map again and if it wasn't set well i'll set it ^^
well i can see some problems with this pic but i cant exactly point them out... otherwise... its ok.
Looks really good! I'm liking this so far.
I'm liking this ^^ you've really set the atmosphere for it.
the mod was lost in a harddrive failure
Ah I see that you've tested what I taught you ^^
No problem Vid! ^^
The release date is a complete blur at the moment, maybe late this year or early next year.
Good Luck with the Kickstarter! It seems like a good idea and I hope you guys reach your goal.
Looks amazingly well done! I really like the lighting in this particular screenshot.
I'd suggest turning the glare down a bit because it can be quite an eye sore, other than that it does look improved.
Mapping looks good! Looking incredibly promising!
Looks Great!
Especially the lighting, good luck!
Looking forward to this!
Another mod by the brilliant creator of Detorcium!
Looks good, don't exactly like the head but it looks ok.
No prob, Well AIHM is just on hold so i might pick it up again.
Looks really creepy and foreboding, It looks really good!
Seriously? that voice actor? I mean the rest looks good but I just ******* hate that guy's voice, He doesn't put any effort his voice acting at all, he sounds like a ******* monotone robot.
Your mod looks promising but the voice acting really just kills it for me.
I'm really liking the environment in these pics, really reminds me of black snow and the thing.
You should consider adding the story to the description and upload it to ModDB to bring in more attention
I try to make an atmosphere of sorrow, dread and loneliness in the maps.
So far all maps are a WIP and i change them alot.
Nice lighting! Interesting decals and entity placements.
Looking foward to seeing how this custom story will be,
Very well done there!
This looks like a really interesting game, Tracking!
This game is really promising. Tracking!
Looks good! Always fill a map up with entites and furniture, makes them look professional and nice.
Good Luck Devan!
That is some Primo Mapping Serge! Looks amazing.
Army Warehouses? Cordon? Garbage?
Im Bettin my Rubles on Yantar! the swamp and Psi - Factory hiding the disturbing secrets of X-16.
The maps look quite empty and the story is quite a cliche... i'd advise adding things to the maps and make them look more presentable and the story could use a bit of revising.
I Shall give you le lantern but with half oil. *grabs lantern*
It's a sturdy thing... you can brain a brute with that thing and it'll work fine.
i'm sure you will, he actually pays attention to this stuff unlike others.
Sounds like a good idea. i would suggest Markiplier.
Nice Flashlight model! the way its pointed is a bit strange but other then that its quite good.
That'll be 60 Thalers and 10 Sanity.
very soon.
There's a small glitch that occurs when it loads the menu and the cannister in the truck flies out... thats the metal thing under neath the exit button.
Your support is really appreciated. Thank you.
Man your screenshots are amazing, tracking! cant wait to see this released.
never heard of that program, might have too have a look at it.
thanks. photoshop is a marvelous tool.
not yet. only a test.
yeah i'm not to good at filling maps with other things.
That is some great mapping skills you have there. Looks like it's out of AMFP. Probably the assets.
Can't wait to play this gem.
Definitely Tracking! I Loved The Great Work and i know this is being made by Damascus.
that looks like something out of a SCP Game.
Don't quite remember that area. I've only been in a couple of the buildings before i legged it.
Good luck mackiiboy, Disponentia was a master piece and i bet this will be better.
looks good, Lone in Gothfair? Gothfait: Hope Lost?
Thank you! the skybox, the barrels and the walls is from AMFP.
is that an orb near that door handle
Nice flashlight!
I See london, i see brennenburg, i see a pig monster's buttcheeks. plus dead body?
It looks Great! the only criticism and i mean Only is that blueish Hue, i hope it isn't in the final release. the rest looks so GREAT! Can't wait to play this beauty!
Something about this Screenshot reminds me of the city in Cry of Fear. I Just can't say what though...
oh god... are those dogs smiling?
Or he farted and everyone thought it was radiation.
I Recognize that voice. Sam A. Mowry, Alexander from Amnesia
You're welcome, seriously man it looks amazing.
Holy ****! that is amazing. once this is released i'm downloading it right away.
woah... that looks unnerving, great map!
Pretty cool level design, like to see that when this mod is released.
Its NOT Their model, this game uses stolen models from other games. the new flashlight for example is from Ildefonse.
They need to make their own models and stop stealing them
Interesting Trailer, even using comments that were to insult your game.
Not bad
I Swear that looks exactly like the Flashlight from Ildefonse.
You do know that image is from Slender: The Arrival right?
This sounds Awesome. i am defiantly tracking
Monolith Stalker: Praise the Granter.
Granter: ASSUMING CONTRO *EXPLOSION*
Onward Brother! yes that's the real monolith spirtt!
A Magnificent Sight, too bad it's a false hope.
Wow! i love the lighting and the atmosphere is brilliant, keep up the good work!
Nothing is released without bugs, i will have to try this
Holy Death, that is Awesome.
I Hope to see that in you custom story
Thanks, i expect to release it sometime Mid to Late March or Early April
it's a mixture of garlic, Dettol, Battery acid and Petrolium in Cup-a-Soup
Congratulations mr and mrs north it's a Slender man
what codes are there
EXCELLENT trailer my friend, Good backstory reminds me of silent hill
pretty creepy, fits perfectly with the horror genre
Screwed up every time i load or start a new game the thing has a bloody black box error
thanks i put alot of work into it
That...sounds... Amazing kinda like the Thing this is good work i am tracking it when would the estimated release date because i am loving this
Good work man you have my support!
what castle did you use for this pic
******** Candy *** ******* wanker
better run
geth destroyers are black with yellow lining

Title: | OFFSETS AND DEVELOPMENT OF DEFENCE SUPPORT INDUSTRIES IN SMALL ECONOMIES |
Authors: | Joson, S.S. Economics |
Issue Date: | Jun-1988 |
Publisher: | Department of Economics |
Series/Report no.: | 108 |
Abstract: | This paper provides an analysis of offsets, a measure employed by many small countries for the development of a local high technology/defence support industry. Offsets in government procurements involve seeking trade, technological or industry work-load benefits through negotiation of reciprocal sales between the purchaser and the foreign supplier of the equipment. A theoretical model capturing the nature of this protective measure is developed. Australian and Canadian data are used to show that both countries' experiences fit the pattern suggested by the model. Implicit protection costs and perceived benefits of the programme are thus put into perspective. |

Forest Biodiversity Assessment in Relic Ecosystem: Monitoring and Management Practice Implications
Received: 6 July 2011 / Revised: 25 August 2011 / Accepted: 7 September 2011 / Published: 21 September 2011
(This article belongs to the Special Issue Biodiversity, Conservation and Ecosystem Management)
Abstract: The remnants of old-growth cedar forests in Lebanon are currently protected since they are taken to represent relic ecosystems sheltering many endemic, rare and endangered species. However, it is not always obvious how "natural" these forest relics are, and how the past use, conservation and management history have affected their current structural properties and species community composition. Even though Integrated Monitoring Programs have been initiated and developed, they are not being implemented effectively. The present research studied the effect of forest stand structure and the impacts of the anthropogenic activities effects on forest composition and floristic richness in four cedar forests in Lebanon. Horizontal and vertical structure was assessed by relying on the measurement of the physical characteristics and status of cedar trees including diversity and similarity indices. Two hundred and seventeen flora species were identified, among which 51 species were found to have biogeographical specificity and peculiar traits. The species composition seems not to be correlated with stand age structure; however, the occurrence of multiple age cedar stands favors floristic richness and variability in species composition as observed in one of the stands where the variation in diversity indices was high. In conclusion; to conserve biodiversity across landscapes, it is necessary to maintain a collection of stands of different vertical structure; an effect produced both by natural and anthropogenic disturbances since they both create a mosaic of different aged succession stands.

I went from the HobbyZone Super Cub to the Extra 300 so I was also taken by surprise at how sketchy the thing is at slower speeds. So I just make sure to keep my speed up and to keep the throttle on all the way to touchdown on landings.
A more experienced guy that I fly with suggested setting up flaperons for landing. I've also seen youtube videos of others doing this. The other thing people seem to do is put on a 11x7 or 12x6 prop. This seems to give you a little extra thrust so it doesn't fall out as bad, but from what I've seen, you still have to fight the wing rocking a little. You also have to watch your amp draw. This guy apparently improved the wing rocking issue with some rather involved mods to the wings: http://www.youtube.com/user/DOOODBOY...uery=extra+300 These two threads might also have some good tips (I've only skimmed through them myself): http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showt...kzon+extra+300 http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showt...kzon+extra+300 |

Make sure you only have max 10ml throw on the elevator. It will snap with too much elevator. Mine will harrier well upside down in a breeze. For some reason it flies slowly better up side down. For furst flights, stick the battery as far forward as it will go (the velcro fastening strap should be behind the battery). the stated CoG is too far back when learning to fly this plane. After 30 or 40 flights, you can move the battery back for better slow speed manouvering.

Depends on what your definition of low speeds is. The extra needs speed to fly right and loves it. It will slow down quite a bit, but once you fall below the limit, you're lucky if it just rocks its wings. It won't putter around like a t28 or high wing trainer, or easily do harrier type slow flight like a 3d plane (unless you are really good) though. It's an aerobatic plane and a very good one in my book.

Yes, I like flying my extra. It is pretty tough and endlessly repairable. You WILL rip off the wheels, but they can be glued back in easy enough. You WILL have many bad landings until you get the hang of it. It does not handle well at low speeds with the CoG forward (see below), it is a fast aerobatic plane and it excels at this. It is not a plane for beginners.
Make sure the battery is pushed/squeezed full forward even if you have to shave off some the foam (the velcro battery strap will now be BEHIND the battery). The original manual had the wrong CoG. From memory, it was actually nearly an inch forward. Many people reported bad performance becausee they used the wrong CoG. Any battery bigger than the stock battery will be a tight squeeze, but you must get it forward. I've had mine up for several hundred flights now and usually have the CoG back now for better low speed performance. In fact, I usually just let the battery flop all over the place because the CoG doesn't worry me anymore (unlike my first 50 or so flights). The fuselage has been glued back together 6 times, I'm up to my fourth prop, second motor and I've got no wheels left (hand launch). I've lost about 5% of the wing area through crunches, notches and dings. The canopy and pilot have long disappeared, but it keeps on flying. |

Can a slave act in self defense?
Submitted by Mark Hanson on Sat, 03/02/2013 - 15:00. Permalink
Of course, but not successfully. So self defense does not address the problem that would exist in an anarchist society, i.e., a majority of people may reject the Non-Aggression Principle and therefore have the ability to enslave others. You may want to rethink your definition of a coherent argument.

This was our first visit to Ethel's and we enjoyed it very much. The food was very good, portions huge and friendly service. My husband would have liked a coctail but the large wine & beer list worked just fine. Will visit again next year for sure.
Excellent food...my third year sampling at Bill and Sally's restaurant. Their wait staff are beyond friendly. I look forward to dining here again next year!
Fantastic food, large portions, friendly wait staff, nice atmosphere, reasonable prices. What's not to like?
My wife and I enjoyed our dinner at Ethel's. The place looks recently remodeled and done quite well. We had a glass of wine at the bar while we waited for out table. The service was good and the food was excellent. NOTE: Wine and Beer only
We had one of the best Italian dinners in a long time here. The food was so tasty and fresh. We liked that you can have smaller portions as usually there's too much to eat.
We have been going to Bayfield for years. Normally we camp so we don't eat out much. I always wanted to go to Ethel's and now we did. The special was lasagna and it was good. It was a little pricey but everything there is.
We ate here the second weekend in October. We didn't have reservations but only had to wait about 10 mins to be seated. Since they are at the end of the tourist season, they were all out of white fish but we thoroughly enjoyed the the sausage pizza and mushroom ravioli. Small place and service was good.
Comfortable, quiet place for a relaxed meal. I had the smoked trout crostini, excellent. The small whitefish dinner was the perfect size in this land of gargantuan portions. Nice atmosphere and good food.
We had read reviews and looked at the menu in advance and were a little wary of Ethel's because of what seemed like extremely low pricing. What we didn't realize is that everything is a la carte, so if you add a salad or soup, the prices are still very reasonable but you don't have that little doubt about the... More

In Phi Theta Kappa's first general meeting of the Fall semester, we were honored to present Olympic Gold Medalist Breeja Larson as our guest speaker. Breeja discussed the values of leadership; the importance of pursuing one's goals and the sacrifice and drive necessary to achieve extraordinary feats. Breeja also had a chance to reflect on how she views competition.
"Competition can be healthy and it can be cruel. There are people that have told me that I need a gender check. [They] try to tear me down mentally. People say 'I want to see her lose, she's such a sore loser!' I wanna say, 'well you've never seen me lose..'"
She continued to mention that aside from rare isolated accounts, the competitive spirit at the London Olympics was a positive one, and that it was "such a healthy atmosphere."
"Your lane is yours. No one is gonna get inside of my head. I'm in lane 8 this is my lane, and if someone is gonna try to psych me out I'm not gonna let it get to me. This lane belongs to me and if I come in 8th place, it's because there are 7 people that are better and there's nothing wrong with that."
Breeja Larson won the gold medal in the women's 4x100 meter relay at the 2012 London Olympics. She is currently continuing her education at Texas A&M, and will be training with hopes of continuing to compete in the next Olympic Games.
On behalf of all of us from Phi Theta Kappa, we'd like to thank everyone who attended the event, and would like to remind people that membership is not required to attend general meetings. We have many exciting events planned for the fall semester's meetings and we look forward to seeing you there!

Steelers release Weslye Saunders in strange move
By Charlie Wilmoth on Oct 12
Surprisingly, the Steelers have released tight end Weslye Saunders.
In a strange move, the Steelers have released tight end Weslye Saunders. Saunders had just finished serving a four-game suspension for violating the NFL's drug policy (it was for using adderall, he said), and he was on a roster exemption. The Steelers needed to clear space for him on the roster, and it was widely expected that they would cut fellow tight end Leonard Pope, who is older than Saunders and who has played very little recently. Saunders' release comes out of nowhere, as Chris Adamski indicates:
Weslye Saunders was asked Mon if he might be the 1 who'd get cut-He & everyone else laughed.The very idea was a joke to him & us 3 reporters
This might not be a season-altering move, but it's a very strange one. Saunders was signed as an undrafted free agent last year, but he appeared to have upside. He would seem to be a much better use of a roster spot than Pope. Saunders has a history of off-field issues -- in addition to the drug violation, he was kicked off the University of South Carolina football team for violating team rules. There may be something going on here that we're not yet aware of.
The Steelers can't place Saunders on the practice squad.
This move would appear to be good news for 2012 seventh-round pick and former Oregon tight end David Paulson, who the Steelers might prefer to Saunders.

I just recently became aware of a discussion that grew out of the Third Lausanne International Congress on World Evangelism in Cape Town this past October. It's been interesting to hear responses to this event [6] from people who were there -- especially the response from indigenous people groups who saw the whole event as dominated by the ideas, plans, and agendas of the wealthy, white, Western church (a "business as usual" they desired to move beyond). Yet, I've been intrigued by the conversations I've heard regarding a push for an international code for Christian missionaries that seemed to gain momentum at Lausanne. As reported here [7]:
Christianity wants to show that it totally rejects abuse and all physical or mental violence, said the director of the International Institute for Religious Freedom of the World Evangelical Alliance, Thomas Schirrmacher (Bonn), on Wednesday evening at the 3rd Lausanne International Congress on World Evangelism in Cape Town.
The coming code of ethics is in favor of mission, however it will condemn all immoral forms, such as psychological pressure or material incentives for people who want to change their religion, said Schirrmacher, who is a sociologist of religion and the Spokesman for Human Rights of the Evangelical Alliance as well as founder of the International Institute for Religious Freedom (2006).
According to statements from the Vatican, the World Council of Churches, and the World Evangelical Alliance, such a document will be jointly adopted. The World Evangelical Alliance claims to be a platform worldwide for more than 400 million theologically conservative Christians from more than 120 countries. The World Council of Churches, a coalition of Protestant, Anglican, and Orthodox churches, represents more than 500 million Christians. The Vatican represents more than a billion people. The three organizations together represent 97 percent of all Christians.
I studied missiology in graduate school at Wheaton College, which is the epitome of the wealthy, white, Western church world. I know the missionary horror stories -- the manipulation, the psychological violence, and the utterly un-Christian tactics used to get people to convert. I've explored the statistics regarding the high percentages of people with mental disorders who go into mission work. Regardless of the number of great people doing missions [8], there are also a disturbingly high number of seriously messed up people out there serving as official representatives of Christianity and inflicting serious harm around the world. For a good number of them the harm is justified if the net result is a few more people saved. And for even more of them, the mental issues are overlooked because either "the workers are few (and the harvest plentiful)," or because of an evangelical belief that psychology is liberal/satanic.
Needless to say, even as a sympathetic insider who has worked within the Christian world much of her adult life and who nearly ended up on the mission field [9] herself, I am well aware of a need for a code of conduct like this. But my real question is if establishing such a code would have any effect whatsoever.
The cynical side of me thinks that a code like this would be similar to codes created by most clothing manufacturers. They create these great documents about caring about human rights [10] and high standards for how their workers are treated so that they can show concerned activists their policies, but then they never bother translating these codes into the languages spoken at their factories. The ideals of the boardroom never actually reach the very workers they claim to protect. I have to wonder if a code of conduct like this would be ratified by these umbrella organizations but never actually reach in-the-trenches folks who are expected to abide by it.
Similarly, I wonder what the response of many of the very old-school evangelical missions organizations who still operate out of a neo-colonial mindset [11] will be to something that may impede their efforts. I've been at enough conferences and training classes on missions to know that something like this can easily be dismissed as a tool of Satan meant to silence the advancement of Christ. Persecution (i.e. people being offended by you) is seen as a badge of honor for many missionaries. There is little conception that the faith they present and how they present it can be toxic. Calling people to love actual people and not just see them as "projects" that must get saved is just not the way things are done.
At the same time, there can be power in the symbolic act of creating something like this. I think of how often people express the desire that they wish the Vatican would just take a strong stance against priests who molest children. While such a statement might not change what the priests do, it helps people outside the church see that the church doesn't support the evil done by its supposed representatives. Missionary work has a sordid history and was for too long the bedfellow of colonialism and racism. Symbolically standing against doing evil in the name of Christ (while perhaps not changing actual practice) will help send the message that the church doesn't monolithically support immoral manipulation and coercion.
I'm interested to see what becomes of this discussion for a code of conduct, and even more interested to see what impact (if any) it has on the world.
