Info from Osama raid shows interest in U.S. trains
By EILEEN SULLIVAN
Associated Press
Some of the first information gleaned from Osama bin Laden's compound indicates al-Qaida considered attacking U.S. trains on the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, but counterterrorism officials say they believe the plot was only aspirational and have no recent intelligence about any active plan for such an attack.
As of February 2010, the terror organization was considering tampering with an unspecified U.S. rail track so that a train would fall off the track at a valley or a bridge, according to a Homeland Security intelligence warning sent to law enforcement officials around the country Thursday. The warning was obtained by The Associated Press and marked for "official use only."
This information appears to be the first widely circulated intelligence pulled from the raid this week on bin Laden's secret compound in Pakistan. After killing the terror leader and four of his associates, Navy SEALs confiscated a treasure trove of computers, DVDs and documents from the home where he had been hiding for six years.
Intelligence analysts have been reviewing and translating the material, looking for information about pending plots and other terror connections.
"We want to stress that this alleged al-Qaida plotting is based on initial reporting, which is often misleading or inaccurate and subject to change," Homeland spokesman Matt Chandler said. The government has no plans to issue an official terror alert, he said.
"While it is clear there was some level of planning, we have no recent information to indicate an active ongoing plot to target transportation and no information on possible locations or specific targets," the May 5 warning said.
U.S. officials have disrupted other terror plans that targeted rails, including the 2009 plot to blow up the New York City subway system.
On Monday the FBI and Homeland Security warned law enforcement around the country that bin Laden's death could inspire retaliatory attacks in the U.S. They said the transportation sector -- including U.S. rails -- remain attractive targets.

88 The Narrow Road by Felix Dennis
88 The Narrow Road by Felix Dennis tells it like it is. This is a book for someone who wants to get rich and is happy to risk all in the process.
The poem on the back cover sets the scene for this book perfectly.
Those who tread the narrow road
Walk in single file -
Shadows plague each wary step,
Hazard haunts each mile.
This book pulls no punches. Felix Dennis is a successful multi-millionaire with a large publishing and digital-media empire, and it is obvious that he has a very direct and uncompromising style. It is also obvious that this book is slightly tongue-in-cheek, but that doesn't make it any less useful to the budding entrepreneur.
If you are easily offended, you won't like this book. If you are lazy, or full of excuses, you won't like this book. In fact, I suspect that most readers will take a dislike to the author, whilst also having a grudging respect for his experience and entrepreneurial abilities.
The number 88 in the title refers to the number of chapters; each one no more than a page or two in length yet teaching a valuable lesson in the accumulation of wealth.
Topics covered range from personality traits, through to common startup errors, raising capital, management, delegation, and more. Plenty of "Get Rich" books are written by people with no real business experience, whereas this is a distillation of the knowledge of a genuinely rich and successful businessman.
If you read this book you will either love it, or hate it. But either way I'm sure you will agree that it is a gold mine of knowledge, and one that will be kept close at hand by many future multi-millionaires.

Fernando De Felipe Allué was born in Zaragoza and worked for the magazines Totem and Zona 84, and the publishing house Zinco. Using the penname F. De Felipe for his comics output , he has mainly drawn science-fiction stories . His adaptation of Victor Hugo's 'El Hombre Que Ríe' was published in Zona 84 and in album by Glénat Spain (1991).
He worked with scriptwriters like Oscaraibar ('Nacido Salvaje', 1989, and 'ADN', 1990) and J. Vane ('SOUL', 1991). Other albums by De Felipe include 'Marketing & utopía' (1993) and 'Black Deker' (1995). His work is also published in France by Soleil Productions.
Victor-Marie Hugo (26 February 1802 – 22 May 1885) was a French poet , playwright , novelist , essayist , visual artist , statesman , human rights activist and exponent of the Romantic movement in France.
In France , Hugo's literary fame comes first from his poetry but also rests upon his novels and his dramatic achievements . Among many volumes of poetry , Les Contemplations and La Légende des siècles stand particularly high in critical esteem , and Hugo is sometimes identified as the greatest French poet . Outside France , his best-known works are the novels Les Misérables and Notre-Dame de Paris (known in English also as The Hunchback of Notre-Dame).
Though a committed conservative royalist when he was young , Hugo grew more liberal as the decades passed ; he became a passionate supporter of republicanism , and his work touches upon most of the political and social issues and artistic trends of his time . He is buried in the Panthéon .
Les Misérables (literally "The Miserable Ones" ; translated variously from the French as The Miserable Ones , The Wretched , The Poor Ones , The Wretched Poor , or The Victims , is a 1862 novel by French author Victor Hugo and is widely considered one of the greatest novels of the 19th century.
The Man Who Laughs is a novel by Victor Hugo , originally published in April 1869 under the French title L'Homme qui rit. Also published under the title "By Order of the King" . Although among Hugo's most obscure works , it was adapted into a popular 1928 film , directed by Paul Leni and starring Conrad Veidt , Mary Philbin and Olga Baclanova .
1.) In May 1950, the Gilberton publishing company produced a comic-book adaptation of The Man Who Laughs as part of their prestigious Classics Illustrated series. This adaptation featured artwork by Alex A. Blum, much of it closely resembling the 1928 film (including the anachronistic Ferris wheel). The character of Gwynplaine is drawn as a handsome young man, quite normal except for two prominent creases at the sides of his mouth. As this comic book was intended for juvenile readers, there may have been an intentional editorial decision to minimise the appearance of Gwynplaine's disfigurement. A revised Classics Illustrated edition, with a more faithful script by Al Sundel, and a painted cover and new interior art by Norman Nodel, was issued in the spring of 1962. Nodel's artwork showed a Gwynplaine far more disfigured than the character's appearance in either the 1928 film or the 1950 Classics edition.
2.) A second comic book version was produced by artist Fernando de Felipe, published by S. I. ARTISTS and republished by Heavy Metal Magazine in 1994. This adaptation was intended for a mature audience and places more emphasis on the horrific elements of the story. De Felipe has simplified and taken some liberties with Hugo's storyline. His rendering emphasizes the grotesque in Hugo and excludes the elements of the sublime that are equally important in the original.
The Man Who Laughs was
Pyblished in Greece by " Para Pente Comics " 1995 , in Limited Edition Comic Album .

2010 SHANGHAI OPEN: UP Sunken Pleasure's Road to the Finals
By: Ping Bautista aka Pingles aka 平格斯
This year's Shanghai Open was one of the best international tournaments that I have ever been too and for 2 reasons:
1.) Tournament Venue and Food – the fields were just awesome (See pictures below. I just love Astro-Turf!!!) and the food was the best food I have ever had during a tournament. Overflowing San Miguel Beer was offered during the finals also. Although the tournament kit didn't have a jersey or even sun block like we do here in Manila, they did give out some sweet discs and even Huwa Visor Caps.
2.) Tournament Skill Level – I know that Shanghai caters to the best and most competitive teams in the Asian Ultimate scene (maybe even better than Spirits I might say). But what was really nice to see was that there were more Asians coming out to play than expats. It was a great sight to see that we are slowly catching up to our American and Japanese friends. ☺
So here is a brief rundown of what happened over there. I won't describe the parties anymore cause of lack of memory on what went down (all I remember was seeing a lot of ass…). Enjoy ☺
Sunken Pleasure's first day in the tournament went really well. They made quick work on the first three teams they faced (Hong Kong Junk, Shanghai B and last year Singapore Open Rivals, Disc Knights) reaching the point cap of 11 on all games. Everything seemed to be going the way of our nations only representative in this year's Shanghai Open until they hit a wall and a very hard one at that… KOREA.
Korea had been very silent over the past few Asian tournaments and now they were carrying with them a whole new roster of fresh college graduate ultimate players. With an average height of at least 5'11 and their girls as tall as Heyman. SP had a really difficult time keeping up with this fresh young Korean Team (nowhere near the KUNT [Korean Ultimate National Team] that we have seen). SP ended day 1 second on their pool earning a 1 game bye coming into Day 2.
In the quarter – finals, our boys and Girls in Orange and White went up against their Chinese counter parts, a Chinese Sports University Team named Speed who was Champion in the league that finished just before this Tournament. Speed was composed of college students with an average age of 19 years old, who had only been playing ultimate for around 6 months and was very physical in their play (and had little or no English skills at all), which resulted in a lot of calls and a lot of flying elbows. But SP made quick work of them reaching the point cap of 11. Spirit however was practiced throughout the entire game and SP even gained new fan base in China. (see attached photo and video).
After a quick interview and autograph signing with Xtian (again watch attached picture video), SP went head to head against Shanghai Huwa in what I am proud to say was one of the best semi finals game I have ever had the privilege in seeing live. The game started of with Huwa going up 3 points playing some sick zone defense and pegging SP at 4 points at the half of 7. After a really great pep talk given by Christian, SP rallied and made a 6 – 1 against Huwa who just couldn't seal the holes that the poppers of SP used to move the disc up and score point after point after point. The defensive game of SP was also tremendous. Their man – to – man defense was super tight resulting in numerous lay out Ds and even a near Callahan point by Boracay Import Dada (who by the way made some of the sickest pulls in the entire tournament).
Huwa however wasn't going to go down without a fight. They were able to make a slow comeback and scored 4 more points to make it to eleven. That our very own Kat Velayo who made one of the sickest lay out grabs made eleventh point possible (Great Job Kat!). In the end however, SP made history by defeating Huwa on home court for the first time ever 13 -11. Tears of joy and sadness started coming out of both parties as they huddled up and learned some sad and happy news (the departure of Milan and Sherrie from Shanghai and the discovery of the pregnancy of another Huwa player. I think her name started with either a P or an S. Either way she still played even if she was in her 3rd month).
On the other semi finals game, Korea made quick work of Beijing Big Brother and ended the game at 4 – 13. Mind you all 4 points Big Brother was able to come up with were huck throws made by either Jim or Joe to Gareth. So as I sat down on my seat with a Coleman full of beer I asked myself "Does SP have what it takes to defeat this new powerhouse Korean team?" The sidelines were all cheering for SP as they stepped out on the pitch and drew first blood scoring the first point of the game with a point cap at 15. What followed was a tennis match that led to a Korean huck fest. SP did however make some tremendous Ds and there was even a very questionable call on a should be Callahan grab made by Panoy against one of the Korean players (I swear Panoy grabbed it before he did and it wasn't a strip). Then the worst thing happened; Team Captain Xtian pulled his hamstring. Korea reached the half first at I think was 8 – 4. With the absence of Xtian on the field, the newest members of the team started stepping up and tried to claw their way back against Korea. By the time Xtian was able to play again it was too late. The momentum had already taken the side of the Korea who ended the game at 15 – 10.
The awarding session took place immediately afterwards and I am not sure who won Mythical 7 but what I do know is that SP's very own Chlods was able to bag Female MVP while one of the newest players of Korea, Adam (aka yellow hat guy) bagged Male MVP. SP went home with Silver and the respect of the entire South East Asian Ultimate Community being the only all Asian team to make it this far in the Finals against a very expat based Korean team (who had one or two Koreans on their roster).
SP had accomplished so much during this tournament and proved that the Philippines is one of if not THE leader in Development in Ultimate in South East Asia. Not only did season veterans like Mang Danny, Cherry, Xtian and Panoy show that they still had what it takes to make it to the finals, but the young bloods like Heyman, Dada, Pat, Marin, Jamel, Chlods, Jenny and Karen who had led SP into back to back championships in the last two local leagues, showed that Ultimate was indeed growing in our country. But what I admired the most with this SP team was how they treated each other like a family, like brothers and sisters all looking out for one another and following one voice, never arguing and never complaining. This trait I believe is the secret to this clubs success both locally and internationally.
My hat goes off you Sunken Pleasure. You guys have truly out done yourselves and have made your nation proud. Once again you have placed us on the SEA Ultimate Map as being one of the powerhouse club teams in the region. But the question still remains; who will match up to the new Korean team? Only time can tell. Next stop for SP is Malaysia where they plan on continuing to dominate the Asian Tournaments and finally SPIRITS in November. I look forward to seeing you guys play in the future.

Tips for working with a colorblind audience as a designer and what is colorblindness
First of all, let's talk about what colorblindness actually is!
It's incredible the amount of people that actually know about colorblindness, how many? Well, just a little. In fact most people that I've asked if they know what it is have answered that either they don't know what it is or they say that it's people who see black in white. While the latter it's not a bad answer, there's more to it. Colorblindness it's a condition of color vision deficiency, just like it sounds, it's quite an uncommon condition that is characterized "inability to clearly distinguish different colors of the spectrum". There are several kinds of this same condition. There are the following are:
- Monochromatism: Either no cones available or just one type of them.
- Dichromatism: Only two different cone types, the third one is missing completely.
- Anomalous trichromatism: All three types but with shifted peaks of sensitivity for one of them. This results in a smaller color spectrum.
- Tritanopia/Tritanomaly: Missing/malfunctioning S-cone (blue).
- Deuteranopia/Deuteranomaly: Missing/Malfunctioning M-cone (green).
- Protanopia/Protanomaly: Missing/malfunctioning L-cone (red).
Well, now that we know what colorblindness is we can move on to the main topic, how to deal with it as a designer. Wether you're dealing with a colorblind audience or you are colorblind, there's a few things to know.
- If it works on grayscale it works on color! I bet that you have heard of this since it's basic but some people forget it, it's the basic idea that if it works on black and white it works with color. And it's damn right! The thing here is about the contrast. The contrast in the elements of your design should be recognizable, for example, if there are two buttons on an mobile app, etc, one button is red and the other green, the colorblind person might have a hard time deciding which one to press because he can't see the difference. What I propose in this case would be to maybe have one button be blue and the other green. This happens a lot, it's a very common mistake.
- Monochrome! Similarly to the black and white technique, you could use just different tones of the same color.
- Using thicker lines! Sometimes some colorblind people can actually see the color but only if there is "enough" of it. The solution, make thicker lines or even bigger elements on your design if possible.
- Textures! Textures could be a real life saver in this regard, because it is much easier to distinguish than colors.
- Avoid these color combinations! Green & Red; Green & Brown; Blue & Purple; Green & Blue; Light Green & Yellow; Blue & Grey; Green & Grey; Green & Black.
So that's it folks, hope you learned something new and useful! I might tackle more on this subject later on especially things that could help colorblind designers.
Some of this information came from the following place: 99designs, my brain!

Man Loses Leg Following Horrific Automobile Accident
According to recent reports, a crash along US Highway 95 resulted in a man losing his leg. The Nevada Highway Patrol states that the accident occurred at around 5:30am along the northbound side of the highway. A vehicle seen traveling along this route collided with a wall but continued to travel until the Martin Luther King exit, where it struck a second wall. The passenger of the vehicle then stepped out of the car and was immediately struck by another passing vehicle. The man was taken to the nearby University Medical Centre with apparently life-threatening injuries, but was in stable condition the same day. The man's leg was severed at the scene before paramedics were able to respond. The northbound stretch of Highway 95 was closed at the I-15 interchange for several hours in order to allow officers to investigate the crash. The driver of the vehicle that struck the man following the crash fled the scene immediately; however she was later caught and arrested under suspicion of driving under the influence. The other driver is also suspected of DUI; however, no further arrests have been made.

Osmania University will not allow any students aged above 25 years, to get admission in any of the courses at the varsity from the year 2015.
OU, Registrar, E Suresh Kumar said, "We have many students aged above 25 years who are pursuing their Ph.Ds. Most of them lack clarity in their academics. For this reason, from the next batch, we will focus on making them more employable and get them jobs rather than enrol them in further educational programmes."
Suresh Kumar said that the age group between 25 to 35 is the most important phase in the life, and it is most productive period. Those students should not waste their age their time on the campus, but they can contribute valuable things to the society.
The Psychologist and Personality Development Trainer, Dr V Nagesh of Equal Opportunities Cell of the University would be conducting the training programme to the students, to increase their employability.
These training programmes would be held under the aegis of Human Rights, and Duties Education developed by the University Grants Commission (UGC), New Delhi.
The programmes will start on January 23, 2015, and it will be held at various auditoriums in the city twice a month.
The first session would be held at Tagore Auditorium at 2 PM on Friday.

Okinawa soba may have the word "soba" in its name, but unlike regular soba noodles, Okinawa soba are made without a single grain of buckwheat. This traditional Okinawan noodle dish certainly isn't udon, and it's not ramen either - but one thing's for sure, the people of Okinawa can't get enough of it! From the thickness of the noodles to the soup ingredients and the accoutrements arranged on top, every restaurant offers its own unique take on Okinawa soba! No matter how much Okinawa soba you eat, somehow you can just keep on eating. There's no way you can avoid falling captive to its charms! I visited three popular Okinawa soba restaurants to sample their offerings ♪
You can even find this famous restaurant listed in guidebooks. I visited at lunchtime, and there was already a huge line of people waiting outside. I wasn't sure what to do, but thankfully the table turnover was fast and after 10 minutes it was my turn to pass through the traditional noren curtain hanging in the doorway. Inside you'll find table seating, with Japanese-style rooms at the back of the restaurant. I ordered Shuri soba (\500) and nitsuke (\450), which is a dish of braised meat or fish and vegetables. The best things about the Shuri soba are its thinly chopped ginger topping and the delectable chewiness of its noodles. It's a classic example of Okinawa soba! I received a huge serving of nitsuke, and the bonito based soup made it seriously delicious. And the way that the bowls feature the name of the restaurant is a really nice touch!
As you step inside this restaurant you can't help but notice an air of nostalgia, as the kind of older ladies that you expect to see taking care of business at a restaurant like this are busily rushing around. You order your meal using a high-tech meal ticket machine... the menu even has options like curry or spaghetti with toast! Customers can help themselves to water and green tea. I ordered soki soba (soba noodles with stewed pork spare ribs on top) and san-mai niku soba (soba noodles with stewed pork belly on top). The very generous helpings of soki soba and san-mai niku soba that arrived at my table were each topped with some tasty konbu. The flavor of the bonito based soup was beautifully balanced, perfectly matched by the noodles. The soba at Miyazato Soba is my kind of soba!
Yae Shokudo is located on a somewhat dilapidated little street. For some reason the building looks more like a bar than a restaurant. In contrast to its outside appearance, the inside of Yae Shokudo is rustic and quaint. As it came round to lunchtime the restaurant immediately became packed. The menu is simple. I ordered a large soki soba and a san-mai niku soba. Yae Shokudo's speciality is its flat noodles, but they're served without any soup! What?! There's no soup. In fact, someone will come to your table carrying a kettle filled with bonito based soup! It's a really innovative idea! Halfway through the meal I helped myself to some extra soup. As I was eating I combined my soki soba and san-mai niku soba to create the final item on the menu, mixed soba. And with these three dishes I'd sampled the entire menu! As Okinawa soba goes it was pretty unique, and it opened my mind to the many possibilities that are out there.
Each one of these restaurants is reasonably priced; their seemingly simple soups are actually richly flavored with dashi, and each establishment's unique noodles were very satisfying. Nago City is famous for it's Okinawa soba, so it's the perfect place to go. You shouldn't leave Okinawa without trying Okinawa soba!

A wise master's letter to his disciples – Reincarnation a reality or an illusion (2 Books in 1 – Tête-Bêche Format) by Joseph B. Majdalani (J.B.M.) – ISBN: 978-9953-405-70-4
شراء عبر الشبكة | محتويات الكتاب | صورة الغلاف
In the wake of the success of the Esoteric publications in Arabic: "A Wise Master's Letter to his Disciples" and "Reincarnation – A Reality or an Illusion?!" by Joseph B. Majdalani (JBM), the two books were translated into English and bound together in one Tête-bêche
publication of 128 medium size pages, published by Society of Friends of the White Knowledge, Beirut.
This comes further to the high demand from the four corners of the world to translate the Arabic Esoteric teachings and surpassing 70 publications of Dr. Joseph B. Majdalani (JBM) into English, French, Spanish, Russian, Bulgarian, and other languages… which turns upside down the entrenched conventional assumption that only foreign publications are usually translated into Arabic.As expected in the Esoteric Sciences, the originality is carried over from the mental to the mantle, to an unconventional Tête-Bêche format إقرأ المزيد

Games 84 & 85 - Red Sox
Red Sox 5, A's 4
Royals 8, Red Sox 6
Record: 51-34
I really want to amp up the righteous indignation, but I'm finding it increasingly difficult to generate any emotion that's not theatrically enhanced. (Cue Jon Lovitz: "I'm ACTING!") The Sox are 3-4 at home against Seattle, Oakland, and Kansas City. The Yankees have crawled back into a flat-footed tie with the Sox atop the division (and the league). The bullpen blew another one last night. The offense is hitting below .250 over the last month. Aaron Bates and Mark Kotsay are starting at first.
And I'm sitting here struggling to tip the outrage scale at anything above mild annoyance.
I feel bad about it, really. The Mets, bless their feeble hearts, are an abject train wreck. I can see how Whitney might be getting worn down by having to watch that mess every night. I don't have any excuses.
All I have, really, is a growing, nagging realization: My name is Rob, and I'm spoiled by the Sox' success.
The malady doesn't affect me during games; in the moment, I'm every bit the irrational adolescent I've always been. But I don't carry the losses with me into the next day, and the next, like I used to. You can see it in the mailed-in offerings here at MLC of late. Go back to 2003 and 2004 and compare. There were times when the agony was laughably palpable. Hell, Aaron Boone ruined about a month for me.
As with most things, the Yankees are at the root of this new evil. Several times in the past week alone, Yankee-fan friends were meek, deferential even, during Sox/Yanks banter. In the past, I could always count on a "26" or a "Bucky Dent". Now, though, there's a wistful quality to my pinstriped pals' trash talking. Almost makes me feel sorry for them, mourning the loss of their swagger.
Almost. Suck it up, you ninnies. I need you to be assholes again. My angst is depending on it.

The IoT, or the "Internet of Things," represents an exciting period of innovation in our lives. It describes a world of devices all connected to the internet, a world in which inanimate technology that we use and see every day is becoming smarter. It also predicts a continuous journey towards greater ease and convenience, a future in which technology interacts with us as much as we do with it. As you can imagine, this comes with both perks and drawbacks.

In September 2016, the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) awarded three Connected Vehicle (CV) Pilot Deployment Programs: New York City (NYC), Tampa and Wyoming. The CV Pilot Program will test and operationalize cutting-edge vehicle to vehicle (V2V) and vehicle to infrastructure (V2I) technologies, including in-vehicle wireless, mobile devices, and roadside equipment that have the potential to reduce accidents, save lives, improve productivity, enhance mobility, and lessen the environmental impact of city traffic. The NYC CV pilot will feature an estimated 8,000 vehicles outfitted with V2X equipment, including 5,850 taxis, 1,250 MTA vehicles, 400 UPS trucks, and 500 city vehicles. There will be approximately 350 roadside units installed at Manhattan and Brooklyn intersections and on FDR drive. Additionally, 100 vulnerable road user (pedestrians and bicyclists) devices will be deployed to study the effectiveness of V2X technology in reducing NYC's high rate (5 times the national average) of crash fatalities involving pedestrians.

NTRU is a cryptosystem that uses a special type of polynomial ring. The underlying hardness assumption, known as the NTRU assumption, is that an inverse of a short polynomial (polynomial whose coefficients are very short compared to the modulus q) is indistinguishable from a uniformly random polynomial in this ring. This indistinguishability is crucial in designing a cryptosystem.

In July 2016, the Automotive Information Sharing and Analysis Center (Auto-ISAC) released "Automotive Cybersecurity Best Practices" for carmakers and their suppliers. This document expands on their "Framework for Automotive Cybersecurity Best Practices" published in January 2016. This is the first time the automakers have addressed cybersecurity in a formal manner and a strong sign they are treating hacker threats seriously.

OnBoard Security, the embedded security division of Security Innovation, recently commented on the US Department of Transportation's Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) on V2V communications. OnBoard Security strongly supports the establishment of the proposed regulation since the number of lives saved increases dramatically as the number of cars with V2V increases. Widespread penetration of the technology, and the corresponding prevention of deaths, can only be reached in a reasonable time with a mandate.

In September 2016, Tesla Motors issued an over-the-air software update to make its Autopilot system rely more on radar than cameras. This update was in response to a highly publicized crash in May 2016 in which a 40-year-old man was killed when his Tesla crashed into a turning tractor trailer. Tesla wrote in a blog post that Autopilot didn't detect "the white side of the tractor trailer against a brightly lit sky, so the brake was not applied." Without more information about the accident I can only speculate, but let me try to reflect on the problem and how security plays a role. The cause of the accident was that the camera did not detect the object because of natural/non-malicious blinding. I define blinding as the action of affecting the camera in a way that objects are not detected, either partial or full blinding. So, what does it say about the robustness of the system against blinding attacks? It says that Tesla's Autopilot apparently does not prioritize safety or does not do sensor fusion correctly, if at all.

Autonomous automated vehicles (AV), also known as self-driving cars, have been garnering a lot of press coverage over the past year, as automakers (Audi, Mercedes-Benz, GM, Toyota, etc.), Tier 1 suppliers (Delphi, Bosch, etc.), Universities (Oxford, Stanford, Parma, etc.) and technology companies (Google, Apple, etc.) have all made steps toward releasing autonomous cars in the not-too-distant future.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), part of the US Department of Transportation recently issued their much anticipated Federal Automated Vehicles Policy.

Artifact Details
TitleWhirlwind vacuum tube module rack
Catalog Number102733227
TypePhysical object
Identifying Numbers
|Other number
|Written in ball point pen on a sticker stuck to the left end of back of the upper channel of the rack.
|Serial number
|Stamped in white ink on the left end of the upper channel of the rack.
Dimensionsoverall: 7 3/8 in x 26 in x 12 1/2 in
DescriptionThe rack is built around two identical frame members consisting of a piece of heavy metal that is bent up along one side and down along the other, resulting in an 'N'-shaped channel with a 1.75" bend up, a 2.25" horizontal surface, and a 0.625" bend down. Two of these, oriented in opposite directions, are held together with ten 24-contact edge connectors into which two-tube modules are inserted. Two 11-position screw terminal strips also span the two channels on the right side of the front. Twenty round holes to accommodate BNC connectors are drilled along the front of both channels; however, not all the holes are populated. On the back of the rack, phenolic boards with several rows of solder terminals are mounted to the horizontal sections of each channel, and another phenolic board with two rows of solder terminals is mounted perpendicular to lower one of these. Two 5-position screw terminal strips are mounted on the left side of the back of the rack, and one 4-position screw terminal strip is mounted to the bottom of the left end of the bottom channel.
About 7 long bus wires are connected to pins of the module sockets to supply common signals and voltages. The two horizontal boards are also wired with two busses each. The vertical board attached to the lower horizontal board is provided to hold the passive components of the rack, but there are no passive components on this board. Wiring is point-to-point between the solder posts of the boards and the terminals of the module sockets. Some of the wiring terminates at the screw terminal strips. Many of the external wires connected to the screw terminal strips have been cut.
Sixteen BNC connectors are mounted in the 20 holes along the top of the rack; each of these has a cutoff BNC cable attached. Sixteen of the holes along the bottom of the rack are populated with BNC connectors; three have a cutoff BNC cable attached, and the rest have a BNC tee and two cutoff BNC cables attached.
Eight module locations are occupied by 2-tube plug-in modules, and they each have a tag attached with handwriting in pencil. The right-most two module positions are unpopulated. All modules are type IOSD; the serial number and tag inscription on each are, from left to right: 35, "E14-2-1"; 49, "E14-2-2"; 12, "E14-3"; 24, "E14-2-4"; 40, "E14-2-5"; 50; 60, "E14-2-6"; and 34, "E14-2-8". The module in the sixth slot from the left doesn't have a small tag like the others; instead, it has a large red tag attached with a string that has "IOSD SPARE TEMPORARY MOD TO BE USED IN PIUMP 452 RACK E14 M" written in pencil. None of the modules are missing vacuum tubes.

Outstanding Reviews
"Having now mentored three candidates through the assessment only route provided by Bromley Schools' Collegiate, I can say that
- without hesitation - we made the right choice as a school to have BSC as our provider. In particular, the relationship that we also developed as a school with our assessor was a very positive experience that remained consistent and clear during the 12 week period of the AO programme. The process of observations outlined by BSC and the documentation expected of the school was also a valid and effective way to monitor candidates and provide feedback against the teaching standards, also providing clear targets and areas for improvement."

The Lark Boutique Hotels (larkhotels.com) reopened The Coonamessett following a complete redesign.
The previous owner was William Zammer who operated the inn since 1996.
We had dinner at Eli's Tavern at the inn the other night. The 90 seat dining room is an elegant space with contemporary sparkly chandeliers, cloth napkins and tablecloths. The night we were there they were getting the dining room ready for a large wedding the next day so we had dinner in the tavern.
A full menu is served at the cozy bar, high tops or at plush leather booths. The mahogany walls added warmth to the room.
As we settled in our server Renville appeared with menus, a bread basket and took our drink orders
While enjoying one of their many creative cocktails, "Gin Negroni" or "888 Blueberry vodka Lemonade", a local beer or wine, it was a great opportunity to check out the menu which provided lots of options for everyone.
The chef brings a creative twist to timeless New England classics with local seafood and seasonal ingredients. The menu offered everything from chowder, a nice selection from the raw bar, shared plates, lobster rolls, to a fine steak selection, seafood and lobster.
For an appetizer we decided to share the Steam Buns ($14) with Korean braised short ribs glazed with hoisin sauce and topped with pickled cucumber. These flavorful crispy short ribs on steamed buns are little soft pillows of meaty goodness. They were exotic and every bit as good as the ones we had in Taiwan, where they are called bao buns.
I also tried a bowl of the Clam Chowder ($6 cup/ $9 bowl). This delicious creamy chowder with lots of clams hit the spot before dinner.
My husband chose the Pan Roasted Cod ($20) for his entree. It came artfully arranged with spinach, whipped potato and topped with browned crumbs and white butter. The cod was moist, flakey and cooked perfectly. It's hard to get a dish that's any fresher or more local than this.
I ordered the irresistible Cape Cod traditional lobster dish. I make it a point to have a couple every summer.
The menu offered the lobster both steamed or baked stuffed, market price the night we were there was ($36) I chose the baked stuffed. This delicious moist seafood stuffing included whole scallops and shrimp which took on the flavor of the lobster and added a savory taste to the lobster's delicate flavor. It came with corn on the cob and roasted potatoes. Highly recommended!
Just when you think you can't eat any more, Elli's offers a range of special desserts. Renville recommended the Jones Pond Ice Cream Puff ($10). The soft pastry puff held a couple scoops of vanilla ice cream and topped with a warm full-bodied chocolate fudge with a light drizzle of caramel sauce, whipped cream and sprinkled with walnuts. A nice presentation and enough for two.
Weekly specials include:
Eli's is pleasant, nicely appointed, and a place to lure you back many times.

We decided to stay a couple nights at the The Coonamessett, formerly known as the Coonamessett Inn, that just reopened this spring following a thorough renovation under the boutique hotel collection, Lark Hotels.
There are 29 guest rooms and suites plus various private event spaces with a patio overlooking Jones Pond.
Everyone at the hotel was pleasant and very helpful answering all our questions. We checked into the cozy, newly redesigned Village King Suite with a living room area and separate bedroom. We loved the living room area because it gave us the option of staying up late without bothering the other. Beds were super comfy. Both rooms each had a 43" TV. Other nice touches were the kimono bath robes, a mini-fridge, Bluetooth radio, USB outlets, and free wireless internet access.
The complementary breakfast included hot quiche with onions, peppers and mushrooms, bagels, biscuits, fresh cut fruit cups, cereal options, muffins and danish that were all fresh!
The Coonamessett is centrally located near down town stores, restaurants, Island ferry's and attractions.
Open year-round, The Coonamessett, which has retained the "Cape Cod" charm, is highly recommended to anyone that wants a quaint getaway for vacation, large wedding receptions, rehearsal dinners or parties.
There are three private function rooms ranging in capacity from 70 to up to 300 guests to accommodate all.

BC: "Don't cry because it's over, Smile because it happened." - Dr Seuss
FC: Youth Services
1: My time at Riverview was great. I got to sometimes work one on one with the students and get to know them. My experience at my site was an experience I would never give back. | Summary of work experience
2: What I learned at my site was how important to act like a grown up around the children. They watch your every move and if you slip up they will catch it. I was always careful to watch how i dressed and how i spoke. I learned that using the time you have how it is meant to be used is crucial to making yourself look good.
3: Some skills i have polished up are my people talking skills. You cant be afraid to talk to people when you are volunteering. A skill i acquired was learning how to use a copy machine. Most days my task was to make a lot of copies and now i am fluent in copying papers.
4: A new relationship i formed was between me and Mrs. Hoopman. I was in her office most days making copies so i would often talk to her while i was waiting. Also she was always there to help me if the copy machine stopped working. And obviously i made a relationship between me and Mrs. Strauss. Everyday it got easier to talk to her and ask her what she would like me to do.
5: I can use what I have learned in many ways. I am planing on doing more volunteer work so now that I have some experience I can take what I learned and use it in the future. Also the communication skills I have learned can help me when I am living out of my house on my own.
7: January 13, 2012 Dear Mrs. Tanya Strauss I would like to thank you for being such a nice, fun, and thoughtful site supervisor. During the past semester you gave me many different tasks to perform for you. My favorite was going over math flash cards with the kids. This was my favorite because I got to be one on one with the kids and learn more about them. Also making copies was fun because every time I would try to go faster and faster every time to get more work done for you. I would like thank you from the bottom of my heart for the gift card. It was very thoughtful of you guys. I hope that in the future I might be able to work with you again. Sincerely, Kyle Luedtke
8: Reflection | My time at Riverview was full of smiles and laughter and learning. I would get there everyday and the kids would greet me like it was the first time they have ever seen me. Sometimes all the kids would want high fives. Then I would right away get to work on anything i was told to do. I took my time doing my work so not to mess up. Most days was just making math or social studies copies, but other days I would do things like walk around and see if I can help the students in any way to help finish their homework faster. Some days if there was nothing I was told to do, I would take some students in the back room and we would go over math flash cards. The students seemed to like flash cards a lot because they would beg for them almost everyday. My experience at my site has made me like to volunteer. In the future I will be doing much more work similar to this, and I hope the skills i have learned will help me through it.
10: Assigner's Comments Something I could have done differentley was that I could have went up to the teacher and told her who i was and what Mrs. Strous usually has me do so that she would have felt more calm with me and I wouldnt be sitting there and doiong nothing. Your Answer 9/19 1:16-1:40 There was a sub teacher and I just sat and listened to the lecture she was giving the kids. 9/20 1:17-1:45 There was a sub again today and she was going through a weekly reader and I followed along in my own book. 9/22 1:17-1:43 The kids were learning social studies today and Mr. Kane was teaching and he had me walk around and help the kids with the work they were given. Additional Comments email@example.com ex.2303 One thing I found challenging this week was that I had to work with a sub that really didnt know who I was and didnt have much for me to do.
11: 9/26 monday 1:11-1:43 Made 40 copies of a math worksheet so the kids each could have a packet. 9/28 wednesday 1:10-1:44 walked arround and helped the kids with their homework if needed. 9/29 thursday 1:11-1:40 Worked one on one with brandon and gave him a spelling test. Additional Comments Three ways I showed a posotive attitude was I worked one on one with Brandon and gave him a spelling test and the whole time he was working I was calm and had a smile on my face. I was told to make over 10 different coppies of 9 different papers and I accepted the job witha smile on my face and said no problem. The last way I showed a posotive attitude was when I went to the class and nobody was there and I had to walk arround and look for them. when I found the kids I went up to them and greeted them all and walked them up to the class.

Additional Comments A way I have worked to my full potential is by doing what is asked of me as fast as I can without making any mistakes. And in the future I can do more by trying to take on more than one task at a time.
14: monday 10\10 1:11-1:40 made coppies of a math assigment for the students. 30 coppies. tuesday 10\11 1:10-1:41 the students were doing homework so i just walked arround and helped. wednesday 10\12 1:11-1:40 went on the computer and wrote words that described other words. thursday 10\13 1:11-1:41 made more coppies of another math assignment. 30 coppies friday 10\14 went to the generations. If i was in my supervisors shoes i would say that i am on time and show up at the same time everyday. i would also say that i am always smieling and wanting to know what else i can do before i have to leave. i would say overall that i am a verry deticated volunteer.

Tuesday 10\18 1:11-1:44 i had to use an answer key and grade social studies homework. wednesday nothing. thursday10\20 1:10-1:40 i took three kids in the back room and went over some math flash cards with them. friday 10\21 1:11-1:44 me and two other kids went into the back room and went over multiplication flash cards again. One problem that I had this week was on Friday. I got to the school and went into the class room and there was no kids or teacher in there. The way i fixed the problem was i walked to all the places i thought they would be. i finally found them in the library. Mrs strous told me that they were taking a wkce test. then we went upstairs and i did math facts with the kids.
16: 10\31 modnay 1:10-1:40 Today i was asked by Mrs. Strous to take math sheets 16-30 and make ten coppies of each because the was short some sheets. 11\1 tuesday 1:11-1:41 Mrs. Strouse had more coppies of different math sheets and she needed 20 coppies of these sheets. 11\2 wednesday 1:13-1:41 Today i made more copies but i was told to take these 6 sheets that i was given and make 56 packes with the 6 sheets in them. 11\3 thursday 1:11-1:40 Today i was asked my Mrs. Strous to correct some social studies test packets the kids took. I graded all of them but two untill i had to go and Mrs. Strous said that she was happy with my work and i could leave the rest for her. An activity i have been doing at my site is going over flash cards with certin kids on a list. Something i can do to make this experience better for me and the kids is that i can over the weekend make up some sort of game with prizes for the kids so they feel like its more fun than work.
17: 11\7 monday 1:11-1:40 Mrs. Strous had me go to the coppy room and make copies of a math assigment. 30 coppies. 11\8 tuesday i made more coppies of the same math worksheet. this time i made 20 coppies. 11\9 wednesday This day i made coppies of multiplication worksheets 100 coppies of each sheet.

One thing I have done this week to go out of my way to help someone was at work when a new employee was trying to change the paper towel in the bathroom and couldnt find out how i went over to her and talked her through it so she wouldnt get in trouble.
19: 11\21 monday 1:11-1:40 today i we were in the computer room and i was just told to walk around and observe the children and answer any questions they might have. I had to make sure a couple kids that were fooling arround got back to work. 11\22 tuesday 1:13-1:40 today i made packet copies. 56 packets with 7 pages in each packet. My goal for this class was to just make this experence a good one for me the students and the teacher. and to go to my site everyday with a smile on my face and ready to have fun. I am reachinig that goal because everyday i do go to my site with a smile on my face and am as happy as can be for the whole time i am there.
20: 11\28 monday 1:11-1:40 today was a easy day. I was told to take some math sheets and make 30 coppies of each. 11\29 tuesday 1:11-1:40 today i was supervising the special event 11\30 wednesday 1:11-1:40 today made master copies of a bunch of sheets. I really didnt know what they were for. 12\1 thursday 1:11-1:40 today i finished up making the master copies. I still dont fully understand what they are for. I have sought out help when I was making copies. There was a time that i had to make packets and i had no idea how it was done. So i went into the office and asked the lady if she could show me how it was done.
21: 12\6 tuesday 1:10-1:40 mad master copies of a math test. wednesday i was at the blood drive 12\8 thursday 1:10-1:40 finished up the master copies then did flash cards with ben for the rest of my time. Organizations that reach out to the community are Rocky Knoll because they need decorations, Church because they need volunteers to help make meals, SJL beacuse they need donations of food for families, Armory because they need help organizing gifts for familes.
22: 12\13 tuesday 1:10-1:40 made coppies of a math review sheet. 12\14 wednesday 1:10-1:40 made packets of social studies sheets for the kids. 12\15 thursday 1:10-1:40 Today the copier was acting up so it took me much longer to make copies for the teacher. First i would make up a plan on the items that are the most important to keep me alive. Then i would take all the money i have and put it into catigories on what to use it on. The last thing i would to is sign up for the food pantry so my family could get a little extra food to help us survive.
23: Monday 12\19 1:10-1:40 i got to the room and Mrs. Strous was waiting with copies for me to do that would take up all my time. Tuesday 12\20 1:11-1:40 Mrs. Strous had me grade reading assigments the whole time. Thursday 12\22 1:10-1:40 We watched the movie Yogi Bear. One thing i enjoyed the most at my site was the little party we had on Thursday. All the kids were so happy and laughing all the time. One volunteer activity that i look forward to during the break is making cookies in my kitchen.
24: 1\9 monday 1:10-1:40 I was given another book and i had to make one copy of every page. i got 30 pages done. 1\10 tuesday 1:10-1:40 i continued working on the book. i only got 30 more pages done. 1\11 wednesday 1:10-1:40 today i was correcting math assignments for the entire class time. I think i had a good impact on my site. i did a lot of coppies for my supervisor that she would have to of done herself. I feel like i saved my supervisor a lot of time to do more improtant things. the most benificial thing i learned from my site supervisor was the importance of making coppies. i learned that teachers use more coppies than i could ever dream of.

Computer Science - An Interdisciplinary Approach
Today, learning to program and understanding the basics of computation isnt just indispensable for every science and engineering student: its crucial for everyone who wants to understand the world they live in. In Computer Science: An Interdisciplinary Approach, pioneering Princeton computer science professors Robert Sedgewick and Kevin Wayne introduce core Java programming techniques in a scientific context, while also demystifying computation and illuminating its intellectual underpinnings. Writing for students and professionals of all types and backgrounds, Sedgewick and Wayne draw on all theyve learned in teaching hundreds of thousands of beginners worldwide, both in person and online. The companion text to their eagerly-anticipated Coursera Computer Science MOOC, this books intelligent, broad-based approach draws on applications from science, mathematics, engineering, and commercial computing. Throughout, they engage students by teaching how to solve interesting and significant problems - not toy problems. Coverage includes: Elements of programming: built-in data types, conditionals, loops, arrays, I/O, and more Functions and modules: static methods, libraries, clients, and recursion Object-oriented programming: understanding, creating, and designing data types Algorithms and data structures: performance, sorting, searching, stacks, queues, and symbol tables Computing machines: data representations, instruction set architecture, programming, simulations, and more Building a computer: gates, circuits, components, and CPUs Theory of computation: formal languages, abstract machines, computability, universality, and intractability Each chapter contains questions and answers, exercises, creative exercises, and a compelling, classroom-tested case study - all reflecting Sedgewick and Waynes 20+ years of experience teaching introductory computer science at Princeton. The book is complemented by extensive resources on a comprehensive website, including hundreds of Java programs and real-world data sets.

BNP Paribas Latest Bank to Dump Dakota Access Pipeline*
The bank became the third lender to sell its shares in the controversial project as Native Americans continue their divestment push.
BNP Paribas announced Wednesday that it had sold its US$120 million share in the joint US$2.5-billion Dakota Access Pipeline loan, becoming the third bank of the 17 involved to cut ties to the oil project amid a major divestment campaign by Native Americans and activists that was pushed for after the revival of the pipeline by the Trump administration.
"The decision to divest the loan was made following an extended and comprehensive review of the project including consultation with all the relevant stakeholders," the French bank said in a statement announcing the move. "The sale of our stake signals the importance of full and detailed consultation on projects that impact large numbers of stakeholders."
BNP Paribas joins ING and DNB banks which divested from the project late last month citing issues with how the project affected the Indigenous people in North Dakota and the fact that they were not consulted about the pipeline that would run through their sacred lands and possibly damage their water source.
Standing Rock Sioux Tribe issued a statement later Wednesday welcoming the decision by the major financial institution.
"As corporate greed continues to fuel dirty energy projects on our land, it is heartening to see that some banks recognize the imminent harm to our people posed by DAPL, and are taking actions accordingly," Dave Archambault II, chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, said using an acronym for the Dakota Access pipeline.
"We appreciate BNP Paribas, ING and DNB leadership and their advanced understanding and respect of tribal sovereignty and Indigenous Peoples rights."
In February, law enforcement swept through an encampment occupied since August on U.S. Army Corps of Engineers property at the edge of the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation in North Dakota after President Donald Trump issued an executive order reversing the Obama administration's halt on the project, and directing the corps to grant an easement allowing the project to proceed.
Since then efforts to convince banks and lenders to divest from the pipeline have been gaining momentum as four U.S. cities, San Francisco, Seattle, Davis and Santa Monica, have divested from Wells Fargo, one of the banks lending money to the Dakota Access pipeline.
Other cities in the United States have also issued warnings to banks behind the pipeline saying they could consider divesting if they fail to put pressure on Energy Transfer Partners, the company behind the project, to address the issues of the Native people.
The action against the US$3.8-billion pipeline last year had attracted more than 300 Native American tribes from across the United States in a show of unity considered historic.
Their cause also gained international support which led Norway's largest private investor to divest more than US$30 million from three companies linked to the Dakota Access pipeline.

18 August - Splash Park cleaned for two days out of three
It does seem very odd that
Belvedere's Splashpark
is so maintenance intensive given that the installation is supposed to be all
hi-tech and state of the art. Insiders say that the maintenance
story is an excuse for what is really a budgetary cut. I am inclined to agree when I see
Tweets like the one shown here.
Are we expected to believe that the facility will have to be cleaned again after just one day's use next week? It will have gone four days without a clean leading up to Tuesday 26th. If four days is OK why not go the five days until the so called clean scheduled for Monday 1st September and open the park on the preceding Thursday?

Fact Sheet 2009–3066
Leafy spurge (Euphorbia esula L.) is an invasive Eurasian perennial introduced into the United States as a contaminant of crop seed in the 1880s and 1890s. It typically forms monocultures in rangeland and natural areas of the northern Great Plains where, because of the latex that occurs in all parts of the plant, it is not consumed by naturally occurring herbivores. U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) scientists and their collaborators have been studying leafy spurge at Theodore Roosevelt National Park (TRNP) and at Arrowwood and Tewaukon National Wildlife Refuges in North Dakota since 1998. Study findings have been published in Larson and Grace (2004), Larson and others (2006), Larson and others (2007), Jordan and others (2008), and Larson and others (2008). This fact sheet summarizes that body of research.
