Deal in Sight, Markets Gain Most Since Start of 2013
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Major U.S. stock markets surged Thursday after investors cheered a possible short-term agreement between Republicans and Democrats to raise the nation's borrowing limit.
The S&P 500 advanced 2.2% to 1,692.56, the benchmark's biggest jump since January 2.
House Speaker John Boehner urged his Republican colleagues to agree to a short-term debt ceiling increase, while White House Press Secretary Jay Carney didn't signal that President Obama would reject the plan.
"History has proven time and again that the system is stronger and more resilient than the politicians and we are confident that this again will be the case," J. Wesley Clayton, managing director and founder of HighTower's Twickenham Wealth Advisors in Huntsville, AL commented in an email. "We always take a longer term view of the markets, and the current version of proven political incompetence to solve problems effectively suggests that the more things change, the more they stay the same.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 2.2% to 15,176.07 while the Nasdaq added 2.3% to 3,760.75.

Treasury Secretary Jack Lew set a do-or-die tone early in the day when he appeared before the Senate Finance Committee to warn lawmakers that a failure to reach an agreement would risk the U.S. falling short on payments to public programs such as Social Security and to global creditors.
Lew said the country shouldn't have to be put in a position where it has to pick and choose which principal and interest payments can be fulfilled and which ones must be delayed. "There is no way of knowing the irrevocable damage such an approach would have on our economy and financial markets," Lew said.

RE: The Best Just Got Better
You may not know this but Free Monthly Websites launched way back in early 2006 and since then over 50,000 people have taken advantage of the free website we have offered each and every month. These websites were content rich cash generating websites that earned the user a commission from AdSense revenue and ClickBank. Many of our users have reported their success stories back to us, so we knew we were doing something right, however, back in 2006 we were just starting out ourselves and while we thought we knew it all, we didn't! You could say we improvised for a while, in fact...
Yes, we actually knew nothing about what was crucial to building a successful site such as SEO, keyword research, product placement, niche selection, (you should see some of the niches we have covered) but we did know how to create nice looking sites that our users could make their own to earn an AdSense and affiliate commission from. So we launched back in 2006 and started to provide our free websites to our users, sites in crazy niches such as hair loss, jogging, dog training, garden maintenance, raising children, digital photography and many more. In fact we just picked most of these niches out of a hat, but guess what?
That's right, we started to receive emails from our users and they told us their sites were making them money, some were even having their first success online thanks to Free Monthly Websites. Our users loved what we were doing so we kept producing these websites and our users kept making money, and each month they had a new site to add to their portfolio so they made even more money, and this has gone on since April 2006, and to think we didn't really know what we were doing. Yes, the websites were basic and looked nice and that was about it, but they made our users money.
However, there was one fundamental flaw with all of these websites. If you were inexperienced with HTML you could run into problems. Yes, the sites could make you money but you had to put a little work in at first and while most people had no problems with this (after all the sites were free) some people had issues editing pages and we had to deal with a ton of support requests. We knew there had to be a better way, a way to make things easier for the end user so we have been busy creating what we feel is the best free website creation tool out there. Something that anyone can use.
Don't take our word for it, go and see for yourself in our website tour video here:
Yes, Free Monthly Websites 2.0 is here and you no longer have to worry about editing complicated HTML code as we have taken care of that for you, and you no longer have to worry about anything to do with website design as we have taken care of that for you too, adding your Google AdSense Publisher code, taken care of, ClickBank! All done for you, here's how it works.
That's it! You're done!
And next month, you do the same, and the following month the same. This really is as easy as it gets, in fact watch the video to see how long it takes to set up a Free Monthly Website.
And there's more, remember we said we picked some crazy niches in the past? Well our research has shown us these are the niches that seem to do best, yes, almost by complete fluke we are onto something, we have done a ton of research and are now extremely confident in our ability to provide you with some of the most profitable untapped niches out there. They may seem strange but they will make money, period.
Ok guys, that sounds great, but I'm not stupid, I mean why would you give away these sites each and every month, you get nothing for nothing right?
You know what, we know that is what most people reading this page will be thinking and we could sugar coat this and tell you we are saviours who have been placed on this earth to help people but you know that's not true.
The fact is we are marketers who are in this game to make money and we will make money from you using these websites, mostly from the placement of some products and services in the websites we provide, but let me reassure you every single product or service placed in these websites earns you a commission.
So we like to think of this as win, win for everyone, we give you awesome websites that can earn you money and we earn a little for some of the products you sell via these websites. We feel this is the perfect business setup. So now you know...
So now all that's left for you to do is check out what we can do for you. Remember we will supply you with a FREE, content rich website each and every month, and all you have to do is sign up for FREE below to get yours.
So we're giving you the site, instructions how to get the site up and running and we're also showing

Taiwan F-16s to Receive Gigabit Ethernet Switch
The Taiwan Air Force is the first of what could be several nations to receive an upgrade from Lockheed Martin that will add Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) technology to its fleet of F-16 fighter jets.
[SMS-652 SwitchBox. Photo, courtesy of Curtiss-Wright Controls.]
Lockheed Martin selected Curtiss-Wright Controls Defense Solutions, based in Ashburn, Va., to provide its SMS-652 SwitchBox rugged GbE switch subsystem for the upgrade. Initially, the contract is valued at $3 million, and has a potential value of $8 million over the life of additional upgrade programs.
The SMS-652 SwitchBox is an open standards based gigabit Ethernet network switch designed for rugged military systems with 16 ports of 10-, 100- and 1,000-megabit-per-second Ethernet connections. The selection marks the first time Curtiss-Wright will be providing a standalone network subsystem for a Lockheed Martin tactical aircraft.
Legacy F-16s were originally equipped with the military data bus standard MIL-STD-1553, a 1970s technology with a much slower transfer speed between line replaceable units (LRUs) than the SMS-652 can facilitate.
"We're seeing more and more platforms going from this discrete connection between systems, it might be a serial board or a 1553, some other kind of a slower speed connectivity. Moving over to the Ethernet, as the Ethernet becomes more distributed and is now ubiquitous among all these different LRUs among these platforms," said Aaron Frank, product marketing manager for switching and routing at Curtiss-Wright Controls Defense Solutions.
According to business development experts at Lockheed Martin, customers incorporating the gigabit Ethernet switch upgrade into their fleet plan to use the F-16 for another 20-30 years.
"Currently the F-16s, the legacy F-16s such as the Block 20 and 30s, were still primarily based on a 1553 architecture. So part of this upgrade is getting a higher speed data bus on the aircraft to enable the net centricity," said Mark Grovak, avionics business development manager at Curtiss-Wright Controls Defense Solutions.
As defense spending in the U.S. and other nations continues to drop, upgrades such as these could be valuable to legacy aircraft that are flying longer.
More than 4,500 F-16s have been delivered to 26 countries since the 1970s, so the upgrade market for the aircraft is huge, although Lockheed has not yet made any design specific upgrade selections for any F-16 fleets beyond the Taiwan Air Force.

About the Author: Sarah Nolan serves as Assistant Chief of Protocol for Diplomatic Partnerships.
As the first Assistant Chief of Protocol for Diplomatic Partnerships, it is my job to provide the Diplomatic Corps with greater understanding of the United States' people, customs and institutions through an exchange of ideas, cultures, and traditions. I was excited to get right to work with Experience America -- Chicago.
From May 12-14, the people of Chicago opened their city and their arms to our delegation. On our first full day, the weather outside was quite wet, but the energy and excitement were palpable as we boarded the buses early May 13 on our way to the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, the CME Group. Located in the financial heart of Chicago, the CME Group hosted a breakfast with prominent business leaders from across the city.
Terry Savage, financial columnist for the Chicago Sun-Times, moderated a very interesting panel discussion with Terry Duffy, Chairman of the CME Group, Jerry Roper of the Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce, Craig Duchossois CEO of the Duchossois Group, Brad Keywell, Co-Founder of Groupon, Fritz Johnston, Director of Brand Strategy and Advertising at Boeing, and Michael Andres, President of McDonald's Central Headquarters.
During the question and answer session, Ambassador Avni Spahiu of Kosovo stood up and said his country does not have a McDonald's. However, after an energetic back-and-forth with Mr. Andres, a McDonald's may be arriving in Kosovo very soon. These types of interactions are exactly what Diplomatic Partnerships and "Experience America" is all about.
Next, we were off to the Wrigley Global Innovation Center. The leadership at Wrigley gave our traveling ambassadors a model example of how a company with humble Chicago beginnings implemented an innovative philosophy to grow and expand into 40 countries around the globe. The Global Innovation Center leads the company's efforts to develop the latest flavors of gum and other confections. Housing great thinkers across diverse fields in one place, these experts utilize their knowledge of science and technology to develop state-of-the-art manufacturing processes, materials, and packaging for their products. We split up into four groups to tour the facility and view several demonstrations. I can tell you it was an experience that entertained each of the five senses, and one we won't soon forget.
Our next stop was at the Illinois Institute of Technology for lunch hosted by University President John Anderson and senior researchers in the beautiful Atrium of the Institute's Tech Park. During lunch, we received a presentation from Professor Phil Troyk about his cutting-edge work to develop a prosthetic eye. The ambassadors weren't the only ones marveling at this ground breaking research.
After lunch, we toured IIT's IdeaShop, which gives students the space and resources to address unique global challenges by developing a product or company that can help meet that challenge. One initiative establishes training programs in Latin America for prosthetics and orthotics technicians to address the severe shortage of trained clinical practitioners. Another addresses the need for better coffee bean storage facilities in local farming communities in Uganda.
As the first day of our trip came to an end, I couldn't help but reflect back on each of the events and think about how all these people have a role in helping our efforts at diplomacy -- we are making lasting connections, strengthening our relationships, and introducing the Diplomatic Corps to a diverse and innovative group of Americans.
I hope that the relationships built during this trip and through Diplomatic Partnerships programs in the future, will strengthen the friendships and opportunities between our nation and the world, and I look forward to working to make that happen.

Pankhurst, Emmeline Goulden
Emmeline Goulden Pankhurst 1858-1928
English autobiographer, essayist, and speechwriter.
A feminist and activist during the suffragist movement of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Pankhurst masterminded extreme, often violent, reform protests. Despite her radical behavior, Pankhurst is remembered as an eloquent speaker and talented author who was consumed with the issue of women's rights. My Own Story, Pankhurst's autobiography, is considered a valuable historical document that vividly chronicles her struggle for equality.
Biographical Information
Pankhurst's parents were ardent abolitionists who served as her role models for social involvement. She was born July 14, 1858, and grew up in Manchester, England. Pankhurst attended school in Paris, returning to England at age eighteen. In 1879 she married Richard Pankhurst, a lawyer of liberal leanings. Frustrated by women's inequalities, she embarked on a dual career of child rearing and social activism. The Pankhursts moved to London in 1885, where they attracted a lively group of anarchists who shared their free-thinking philosophy. When her husband died in 1889, Pankhurst became a registrar of births and deaths to support herself and her family. At the same time she and her equally radical daughters, Christabel and Sylvia, became involved in the Independent Labour Party, a left-wing political organization that appeared to support their goals of equality. But upon discovering that the party had no intention of treating men and women equally, the Pankhurst women formed the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU). When the WSPU members learned that a bill supporting women's suffrage had been abandoned in Parliament, the women protested, first with marches and later with hunger strikes, arson, and attacks on property. In 1908 Pankhurst went to prison for the first of many times. My Own Story appeared in 1914. Intended to encourage support of women's rights, the candid, detailed story of Pankhurst's experiences won many admirers. Three years later Pankhurst and her daughters formed the Women's Party, a political organization devoted to women's rights. In 1918 she moved to Canada, where she toured the country as a public speaker. She returned to England in 1926. Just as she died, Parliament granted women the right to vote in England.
Major Works
Pankhurst's primary work is My Own Story, an eloquently told account of her struggles and frustrations in the fight for women's suffrage. The book, published in the middle of her activist career, is a candid diary of the era. Aside from outlining her life as an activist, My Own Story details Pankhurst's conflict between her English middle-class upbringing and the increasingly violent and extreme protests she came to embrace. In the course of her career, Pankhurst also published several speeches and pamphlets that helped further her political causes. A captivating public speaker, Pankhurst inspired many women to seek equality aggressively.
Critical Reception
Since its publication, My Own Story has been consistently praised for its insight into women's struggles in nineteenth-century England. At the end of the twentieth century, critics still praise Pankhurst's importance as a first-hand commentator of the suffrage movement. Her efforts, which included twelve arrests and several life-threatening hunger strikes, are considered pivotal actions in the quest for equality.

Emmeline Pankhurst (essay date 1913)
SOURCE: "Militant Suffragists," in The World's Greatest Speeches, edited by Lewis Copeland, Garden City Publishing Co., Inc., 1942, pp. 196-8.
[In the following excerpt, originally delivered as an address in Hartford, Connecticut, in 1913, Pankhurst discusses differences between the struggle for women's rights in England and America and expresses her willingness to die for her cause.]
I do not come here as an advocate, because whatever position the suffrage movement may occupy in the United States of America, in England it has passed beyond the realm of advocacy and it has entered into the sphere of practical politics. It has become the subject of revolution and civil war, and so to-night I am not here to advocate woman suffrage. American suffragists can do that very well for themselves. I am here as a soldier who has temporarily left the field of battle in order to explain—it seems strange it should have to be explained—what civil war is like when civil war is waged by women. I am not only here as a soldier temporarily absent from the field of battle; I am here—and that, I think, is the strangest part of my coming—I am here as a person who, according to the law courts of my country, it has been decided, is of no value to the community at all; and I am adjudged because of my life to be a dangerous person, under sentence of penal servitude in a convict prison. So you see there is some special interest in hearing so unusual a person address you. I dare say, in the minds of many of you—you will perhaps forgive me this personal touch—that I do not look either very like a soldier or very like a convict, and yet I am both.
It would take too long to trace the course of militant methods as adopted by women, because it is about eight years since the word militant was first used to describe what we were doing; it is about eight years since the first militant action was taken by women. It was not militant at all, except that it provoked militancy on the part of those who were opposed to it. When women asked questions in political meetings and failed to get answers, they were not doing anything militant. To ask questions at political meetings is an acknowledged right of all people who attend public meetings; certainly in my country, men have always done it, and I hope they do it in America, because it seems to me that if you allow people to enter your legislatures without asking them any questions as to what they are going to do when they get there you are not exercising your citizen rights and your citizen duties as you ought. At any rate in Great Britain it is a custom, a time-honored one, to ask questions of candidates for Parliament and ask questions of members of the government. No man was ever put out of a public meeting for asking a question until Votes for Women came onto the political horizon. The first people who were put out of a political meeting for asking questions, were women; they were brutally ill-used; they found themselves in jail before twenty-four hours had expired. But instead of the newspapers, which are largely inspired by the politicians, putting militancy and the reproach of militancy, if reproach there is, on the people who had assaulted the women, they actually said it was the women who were militant and very much to blame.
It was not the speakers on the platform who would not answer them, who were to blame, or the ushers at the meeting; it was the poor women who had had their bruises and their knocks and scratches, and who were put into prison for doing precisely nothing but holding a protest meeting in the...

[In the following review, the critic refutes Pankhurst's arguments in My Own Story.]
Mrs. Pankhurst begins [My Own Story] with the apparently unconscious admission that "those men and women are fortunate who are born at a time when a great struggle for human freedom is in progress"; no one will doubt that when a "struggle" is on she will be eager to be there. The reader who sets out to take her good-naturedly will find the story amusing and entertaining. Mrs. Pankhurst is clever and writes with a facile pen, and she...

This breathing spell in the woman suffrage agitation in England is a good time to review what that agitation has effected and to consider briefly its hopes for the future. Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst's book, My Own Story gives an excellent even though warmly partisan account of the movement, especially of that part in which she has been concerned, and closes with hopeful prophecies of the future.

Most poets are cradled into poetry by wrong, They learn in suffering what they teach in song.

When I received a telegram asking me to take part in Mrs. Pankhurst's funeral, I felt diffident, having endured nothing for the Suffrage Movement compared with those likely to be present. Dr. Cobb, in an eloquent address at the ceremony, pointed out how Mrs. Pankhurst, whom he eulogized in strong but unexaggerated terms, had foregone her war for the enfranchisement and the social liberty of woman in favour of the greater War, to which she and her troops...

There has been no other woman like Emmeline Pankhurst. She was beautiful; her pale face, with its delicate square jaw and rounded temples, recalled the pansy by its shape and a kind of velvety bloom on the expression. She dressed her taut little body with a cross between the elegance of a Frenchwoman and the neatness of a nun. She was courageous; small and fragile and no longer young, she put herself in the way of horses' hooves, she stood up on...

Mrs Emmeline Pankhurst became the most famous and the most notorious woman of her day by means of violence. Violence, after all, was a male prerogative. Its employment by this new Joan of Arc and her Suffragette minions was at once a castrating threat to the lords of humankind and a vile outrage against all notions of feminine propriety. But Mrs Pankhurst's own violence was less striking as a form of political...

Pierre Poilievre Nepean—Carleton, ON
Mr. Speaker, actions speak louder than words and Allan Cutler's actions to defend taxpayers from Liberal corruption and Liberal theft speak louder than the Prime Minister's loudest rhetoric.
Cutler has always been on the side of the folks who work hard, play by the rules and pay their taxes, and he has proven it. He refused to sign the dirty Liberal contracts and blew the whistle on the Liberal ad scam. Since then the former public servant has become Canada's renowned authority on accountability and ethics. He has never been political, never run for office, never even planned on it, but the Conservative Party's accountability act changed all that.
In it, Mr. Cutler saw hope for a clean, merit-driven public service and an accountable government. Today he announced plans to be part of that accountable Conservative government as the next member of Parliament for Ottawa South.
On behalf of the thousands of public servants in my riding, I thank Mr. Cutler for standing up for Canada once again.
Charles V. Keating
Statements By Members
2:15 p.m.
Michael John Savage Dartmouth—Cole Harbour, NS
Mr. Speaker, early Tuesday morning Charles V. Keating passed away in Dartmouth. Mr. Keating was a Nova Scotia legend and exceptional businessman, a philanthropist, a community builder and a humanitarian.
He was a man unabashedly proud of his family, his community and his country. The many awards he has received, including the Order of Canada and the Order of Nova Scotia are well deserved in recognition of his exemplary community service.
Few Nova Scotians have a longer list of accomplishments, but to many people the legacy of Charles Keating will be his simply values of faith, family and community. Where I live so many people have a story of his generosity and that generosity was always directed to those most in need and usually done quietly so as to avoid any embarrassment to those being helped.
Few people were prouder Canadians and most of us have heard his rousing rendition of O Canada. He also was proud of his Irish heritage. Another famous North American of Irish heritage once said, "Ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country". What Charles Keating did for his country and his community is incredible.
Like so many thousands of Nova Scotians, I will miss Charles Keating but I know his work will continue through Marilyn, through Anne Marie, through Greg, Kathy and Mike, Susan and John and his treasured grandchildren.

Stephen Harper Leader of the Opposition
Mr. Speaker, today the government announced it will not go with the full public inquiry on the Air-India bombing. This is seven months after Parliament approved an opposition motion calling for a public inquiry to take place.
If the government had followed the wishes of Parliament and the wishes of the families rather than wasting time and money on this report, it would have had the facts out in the public by now.
When the government waits until the eve of an election to make such a wishy-washy announcement, why should anyone take it seriously?

Anne McLellan Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness
Mr. Speaker, I find particularly offensive the implicit character assassination of the Hon. Bob Rae, former premier of the province of Ontario.
Let me be absolutely clear. We asked the Hon. Bob Rae, an independent fact-finder, to determine whether there were questions that remained to be answered. He took up that challenge. He worked with the families. He has established relationships with the families. He did his work in good faith. He has identified those questions, and I have indicated that I will accept his recommendations.

Mr. Speaker, a new government will get on with the real inquiry.
Today we learned that Liberal pollster Michael Marzolini did not have to wait for an election. His firm, Pollara, received a $90,000 verbal contract from the Department of National Defence. This was after the Auditor General denounced the government for awarding verbal contracts.
In light of this and the revelations on David Herle, will the Prime Minister come clean and care to tell us about any other Liberals who received inappropriate contracts?

Mr. Speaker, this is what the Auditor General said about public opinion research for the government:
Overall, public opinion research was managed transparently, with roles and responsibilities clearly defined.
We have taken steps to strengthen public opinion research. We continue to do so, as does the private sector. We will continue to engage Canadians, seek their input and build public policies that reflect their values.

Stephen Harper Leader of the Opposition
Mr. Speaker, fortunately we soon will not have to listen to answers like that for a long, long time.
It appears that Liberal penance is expensive. Since the Gomery report, the Prime Minister has been making spending promises at the rate of $1 billion a day, and that does not even include the recent mini-budget.
Since most of these announcements are not funded in any of the three budgets the Liberals tabled this year, why should anyone believe these promises?

Anne McLellan Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness
Mr. Speaker, we are in the business of governing. We are in the business of fulfilling commitments that were made in either the Speech from the Throne or our budgets.
I would love to know from the opposition members which of these things they would not do: compensation for residential school victims, forestry sector aid, support for affordable housing or better services for immigrants. Let us hear from those people which of those would they not fund. Which of those do they not support to improve the quality of life in the country for all Canadians?

Mr. Speaker, the real question is, which of these things will the Liberals actually do? They have had 12 years to do it.
Billions of dollars were announced today in spending with no accountability mechanisms built in. Justice Gomery said that the poorly planned sponsorship program was:
-- a depressing story of multiple failures to plan a government program appropriately and to control waste—a story of greed, venality and misconduct...
This vote-buying spree with no clear plans will only perpetuate that type of waste. Has the Prime Minister learned nothing from ad scam? Why would any Canadian believe he actually intends to do these things?

Scott Brison Minister of Public Works and Government Services
Mr. Speaker, this is what Justice Gomery said in his report:
The persons responsible for these irregularities have been identified and reproached for their errors and misconduct. The procedure for uncovering wrongdoing is ponderous and expensive, but in the long run it works fairly well.
Canadians should not forget that the vast majority of our public officials and politicians do their work honestly, diligently and effectively, and emerged from this inquiry free of blame. Justice Gomery did not tarnish the reputations of everybody who works hard on behalf of Canadians, like that hon. member is doing.

Mr. Speaker, we can kiss off that promise.
Today the government announced a costly and unsuccessful step in the tragic 20 year journey of pain for the families of Air-India, more unanswered questions.
The hesitant half measures announced today by the rushed report from Liberal recruit Bob Rae do not respond to the numerous concerns raised by the victims' families. They include issues of terrorist funding, immigration, judicial accountability and witness intimidation.
Will the Deputy Prime Minister commit today to follow the wishes of the families, respect the will of Parliament and have a broad, inclusive, headed by a judge, public inquiry and finally let justice be done into the worst mass murders and terrorist attacks in Canadian history?

Anne McLellan Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness
Mr. Speaker, as I have just indicated, I will accept the recommendations of the Hon. Bob Rae in relation to the second stage of this investigation or inquiry. He has identified for us the questions that we can answer and that will ensure, we hope, that this kind of tragedy does not happen again and does not befall the families of other victims.
I also want to inform the House that I had the opportunity to meet with the families just a little while ago. I have indicated that I will look at their additional questions and some of them will be added--

Mr. Speaker, we have questioned the Minister of Public Safety about U.S. prison planes stopping over in Canadian airports. The minister responded that she had no information about such allegations. So the hon. member for Marc-Aurèle-Fortin sent her a letter informing her of the flight numbers and asked her to conduct a follow-up.
Has the minister followed up? If so, can she tell us if these U.S. planes carrying prisoners who might be tortured did indeed come through Canada?

Mr. Speaker, I did receive such a letter yesterday afternoon after question period. I have referred the letter to my department officials and have asked them to follow up on the issues raised by the hon. member.
I go back to what I said before. I have received no information or evidence whatsoever that those planes were involved in any act that one would describe as extraordinary rendition.
I want it to be absolutely clear that we have not in this country returned anyone to a country where they would face a substantial risk of torture.

One of the oldest robust methods used in image analysis and computer vision is the Hough transform. The idea is to map data into the parameter space, which is appropriately quantized, and then seek for the most likely parameter values to interpret data through clustering. A classical example is the detection of straight lines given a set of edge points. In the following, we take the example of estimating plane rigid motion from two sets of points.
Given p 2D points in the first set, noted , and q 2D points in the second set, noted , we must find a rigid transformation between the two sets. The pairing between and is assumed not known. A rigid transformation can be uniquely decomposed into a rotation around the origin and a translation, in that order. The corresponding parameter space is three-dimensional: one parameter for the rotation angle and two for the translation vector . More precisely, if is paired to , then
It is clear that at least two pairings are necessary for a unique estimate of rigid transformation. The three-dimensional parameter space is quantized as many levels as necessary according to the required precision. The rotation angle ranges from 0 to . We can fix the quantization interval for the rotation angle, say, at , and we have units. The translation is not bounded, but it is in practice. We can assume for example that the translation between two images cannot exceed 200 pixels in each direction ( ). If we choose an interval of 20 pixels, then we have units in each direction. The quantized space can then considered as a three-dimensional accumulator, of cells, that is initialized to zero.
Since one pairing of points does not entirely constrain the motion, it is difficult to update the accumulator because the constraint on motion is not simple. Instead, we can match n-tuples of points in the first set and in the second set, where n is the smallest value such that matching n points in the first set with n points in the second set completely determines the motion (in our case, n=2). Let be one of such matches, where and are both vectors of dimension 2n, each composed of n points in the first and second set, respectively. Then the number of matches to be considered is of order of (of course, we do not need to consider all matches in our particular problem, because the distance invariance between a pair of points under rigid transformation can be used to discard the infeasible matches). For each such match, we compute the motion parameters, and the corresponding accumulator cell is increased by 1. After all matches have been considered, peaks in the accumulator indicate the best candidates for the motion parameters.
In general, if the number of data is not larger enough than the number of unknowns, then the maximum peak is not much higher than other peaks, and it may be not the correct one because of data noise and because of parameter space quantization. The Hough transform is thus highly suitable for problems having enough data to support the expected solution.
Because of noise in the measurements, the right peak in the accumulator may be very blurred so that it is not easily detected. The accuracy in the localization with the above simple implementation may be poor. There are several ways to improve it.
The Hough transform technique actually follows the principle of maximum likelihood estimation. Let be the parameter vector ( in the above example). Let be one datum ( in the above example). Under the assumption that the data represent the complete sample of the probability density function of , , we have
by using the law of total probability. The maximum of is considered as the estimation of . The Hough transform described above can thus be considered as one approximation.
Because of its nature of global search, the Hough transform technique is rather robust, even when there is a high percentage of gross errors in the data. For better accuracy in the localization of solution, we can increase the number of samples in each dimension of the quantized parameter space. The size of the accumulator increases rapidly with the required accuracy and the number of unknowns. This technique is rarely applied to solve problems having more than three unknowns, and is not suitable for conic fitting.

If a cat is having trouble urinating, it may indicate a problem with the animal's urinary tract. A number of urinary problems are common in felines, and the issues are typically grouped under the feline lower urinary tract disease (FLUTD) umbrella.
Most of the problems associated with FLUTD have to do with an inflammation of the urinary tract, which is referred to as cystitis in cats. This term simply refers to the irritation in the tract, and there are several possible causes.
Inflammation of the cat's lower urinary tract may cause several issues when it comes to feline urination. Cystitis may cause an increased frequency of urination related to pain and inflammation within the urinary tract. A decreased amount of urination is also possible and may be related to a blockage caused by bladder stones. In this case, cats may strain to urinate but will only pass a small amount or urine or may not be able to urinate at all. The latter is a medical emergency.
Besides changes in the frequency or amount of urination, owners may also notice a change in the urine itself. It may be foul smelling, cloudy, or contain blood. These signs may indicate the presence of a bacterial infection. Owners should be vigilant in looking for these clinical signs, and take their cat to a veterinarian as soon as possible if any appear.
The first test a vet may recommend to determine the nature of the problem is a urinalysis. A urinalysis for cats will tell the doctor what may be causing the cystitis, and the recommendation for treatment will depend on these test results.
If infection is present, cats can be treated with antibiotics. If a vet suspects bladder stones based on the urinalysis or x-rays, a special diet or dietary additive may be able to break up the stone and allow the cat to pass it. Many times bladder stones will need to be removed through surgery.
Most cases of FLUTD in cats are not caused by infection, stones or other abnormalities. These are called idiopathic cases of FLUTD and are the result of general inflammation within the bladder. This inflammation often occurs as a result of insufficient water intake, obesity, physical inactivity and stress within a cat's environment. It is a manageable--not curable--condition and often recurs over the life of an affected cat. To minimize recurrences, a veterinarian may recommend a dietary change to canned or prescription food in order to increase a cat's water intake to help dilute bladder inflammation. Recommendations to enrich and stimulate a cat's environment and to increase physical activity will also usually be made.
Owners should consider taking steps to prevent FLUTD in their cats. Inactive or obese cats or those that don't get enough water seem to be at a higher risk for the disease, reports VCA Animal Hospitals.
If a cat is having trouble urinating, it may indicate a problem with the animal's urinary tract. A number of urinary problems are common in felines, and the issues are typically grouped under the feline lower urinary tract disease (FLUTD) umbrella.

The annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) concluded on President's Day after five days of scientific discussions around the conference theme, "Building a Global Knowledge Society." The meeting, held in Vancouver, British Columbia, brought together over 5,000 scientists, students, journalists, policy practitioners, and university administrators from more than 50 nations, every state of the United States, Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C, and more than 6,000 citizens who participated in "Family Science Days." With the spotlight on innovation and international collaboration, it came as no surprise that there was a palpable buzz at the meeting, one fueled by the many exchanges among scientists taking place during the formal sessions as well as in the coffee shops and corridors throughout the convention hall.
This buzz of excitement reminded me of what one wise mentor and seasoned diplomat told me years ago: "policy is a contact sport." He meant that in order to be effective in the policy arena, one needed to meet people, hear views, exchange ideas. The best policy could not be created from behind a desk. Instead, good policies reflect the realities of those affected. This was very much on my mind during the formal sessions and the many impromptu conversations during the course of the meeting. The sharing of ideas among international scientists contributes not only to good research projects but also to improved understandings of different cultures. These exchanges help frame and inform conversations held within foreign policy circles -- so in this sense science diplomacy was in full swing at the AAAS conference.
More than half of the formal sessions (plenaries and smaller working sessions) were led by international teams of scientists or by scientists hailing from abroad -- Egypt, Sweden, the United Kingdom, Barbados, Canada all spring to mind. And, the induction ceremony for new Fellows in the Association, leaders in their respective scientific fields, showed a strong international contingent originating from ten countries besides the United States, including Mexico, Japan, Canada, Switzerland, and France. But a quick review of the listing of new Fellows suggested that an even greater contingent of new Fellows were born outside of the United States and opted to spend their careers in U.S. institutions. The international character of this American-based science organization was fully evident.
The informal conversations which crop up naturally at science conferences also demonstrate how science and diplomacy blend on a personal level. My own meetings with neuroscience colleagues (from Canada), new global health connections (from Sweden), and the many exchanges with colleagues worldwide on best practices to advance women and girls in the scientific pipeline, offered new insights and understandings on content issues and at the same time on current conditions and challenges in conducting science abroad. As scientists working across borders get together to share ideas on experiments and research studies, or advice on how to locate reagents or equipment, or to swap personal stories, bonds are forged. These conversations are critical elements of science diplomacy. This informal brand of science diplomacy, the contact sport variety, is as important to building ties and relationships worldwide as the more traditional government-to-government meetings.
As we work to use science as a bridge between nations and peoples, all forms of science diplomacy -- from high-level government-to government meetings to informal scientist-to-scientists exchanges -- have value. Scientific conferences will continue to be an important backdrop for science diplomacy in action.

Aston Villa manager Paul Lambert has dismissed talk of Gabby Agbonlahor being disheartened by his failure to earn an England recall.
The striker has assisted four goals in as many games so far this season, impressing in Villa's counter-attacking set-up that secured an opening-day win at Arsenal, while also troubling Chelsea and Liverpool in narrow defeats.
Agbonlahor has three caps for England, but has not featured for almost four years, his last outing at international level coming against Belarus in October 2009.
Rickie Lambert has featured in both of Roy Hodgson's England squads so far this season, scoring twice in three games, and Lambert moved to dampen suggestions that Agbonlahor should have been called up ahead of the Southampton man.
"I'm not going to tell Roy Hodgson how to do his job," the Scot said. "That's his prerogative, to pick the national team. It's hard enough to pick any team.
"From my own point of view he's been playing fantastically for me, he really has.
"In the last three games he's been excellent. He's been at the top of his game against the best teams in the land in Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool.
"To be fair to Gabby he hasn't let it bother him; he's just got on with it. You can't influence somebody to pick somebody. But for me and this football club, he's playing really well.
"The England players are really top players anyway. England are still in the driving seat so the point was a really good result. People said 'they didn't do X, Y and Z but it was a fantastic result for them to go there and get something.
"They're still in the driving seat so there's no problem there.
"But in terms of Gabby and this football club, he's been excellent."

Interview with Richard Eskow, senior fellow with Campaign for America's Future, conducted by Scott Harris
With the clock ticking toward an Aug. 2 deadline to raise the current $14.3 trillion U.S. debt ceiling, White House and congressional negotiators have yet to come up with a deal to avert what most economists agree would be a disaster for the American and world economy. Last week, President Obama and GOP Speaker of the House John Boehner, reached an impasse on a deal they were negotiating behind closed doors that would have reduced the federal debt by $4 trillion over ten years. Although Obama had agreed to make substantial cuts to social safety net programs, such as Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security, Boehner was unable to get support from his House Republican caucus to end tax breaks for the wealthy and take away tax subsidies from profitable big businesses, including the oil industry.
Obama's willingness to make unspecified cuts to Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security has angered many progressive legislators and activists, who cite public opinion polls that find slashing social safety net programs are deeply unpopular. Further, those who oppose putting Medicare and Social Security on the negotiating table refer to strong majority support for higher taxes on the wealthy, corporations and deep cuts to the Pentagon budget.
Between The Lines' Scott Harris spoke with Richard Eskow, a writer and former Wall Street executive who is now a senior fellow at the group Campaign for America's Future. He talks about the disconnect between the White House and the public on how best to broker a deal with Republicans in order to prevent a catastrophic default on the U.S. debt.

It's always been a competitive environment out there for teachers. The recent economic and political climate hasn't made it any less so. Now, more than ever, teachers need advanced degrees to be successful educators.
Western Michigan University's College of Arts and Sciences is pleased to offer a different kind of advanced degree for science teachers. First, it's focused on science content, allowing you to design a program that interests you from beginning to end. And incidentally, when you finish with your master's degree, you're going to be a better teacher.
Professors can make or break an online class and we've got some great ones. The Mallinson Institute for Science Education at WMU is one of the most respected science education institutes in the country. They have been ranked third in faculty productivity by the Chronicle of Higher Education.
M.A. programs at other institutions have capstone projects or require you to take a class or two at their main campus, far away from your home. WMU's program is 100% online and requires no visits to Kalamazoo.
One of the things that differentiates this degree from degrees at other institutions is that it allows you to focus on science. The requirements for the program include a core of science education courses, but also allow a number of education electives and classes in the science that excites you.
This program was designed with high school science teachers and elementary teachers with strong science backgrounds in mind. If you want to expand your science knowledge and enhance your teaching skills, this is the master's degree for you.
If your employer has a tuition reimbursement program, find out about WMU's deferment program for employer paid tuition.
Washington Monthly placed WMU on a list of national universities that offer "the best bang for the buck." WMU came in at No. 50 based on the economic value students receive per dollar.

If you look at the inside of the gun, you will notice that when the front bolt is in its most forward position, it goes into the barrel adapter before the gas is expelled. If the valve pin were fully compressed to the point the hammer hits the face of the valve (this usually doesn't happen), the front bolt will actually go into the barrel very slightly. The Freak kit has straight tubular inserts that resemble cannoli forms and can be quite small in bore size. Most front bolts aren't that small, so there is no risk of the front bolt damaging the insert. However, their outer o-rings are usually larger than the inserts, so the front bolt may get stuck depending on the insert and front bolt used. Most barrels don't have to worry about this because the breach end of the barrel tapers down to the control bore after a short distance. To avoid this problem, Smart Parts added extra length to the breach end of the barrel back.
If we compare the ION barrel back to the A5 barrel back from the end the barrel front connects to, you can see the difference in length. Both backs have the insert butt up against the front, so the distance is the same. On the ION barrel back, the insert sits flush against the breach end of the back and is exposed, as you can see below.
Now keeping that in mind, take a look at the A5 barrel back. All of the extra barrel length is what was added. If you look at the inside of the A5 barrel adapter, there is a small amount of bore that the front bolt passes over that prevents the barrel from screwing completely through it. Where the two meet creates a lip and the bore is too large for the ball before it even gets to the control bore.
If you look at Scoreshot's picture, you can see the point at which the ball enters the control bore of different barrels. The barrels from left to right are the Freak, Hammerhead, and Palmer's.
As you can see, the ball doesn't create a good fit until later on in the barrel and at different points depending on the barrel. Scoreshot's idea of bringing the control bore as close as possible helped me find Lapco's ION to A5 barrel adapter. It lets you connect ION threaded barrels to the A5. I would post a link but it appears that they have just recently removed the link.
As you can see, Lapco also made their adapter longer to avoid the front bolts entering the inserts. This is what it looks like on the gun installed.
Although the barrel adapter is longer, the overall barrel length is reduced when installed.
I took the stock setup to the chrono and then swapped them out and here's the data I got:
As you can see, the difference in performance is staggering! It improved in all areas. The velocity increased, it's range and standard deviation were cut in half, the barrel was made shorter, and the sound was more crisp.
What this barrel adapter does is remove the extra step that the barrel back creates before the ball reaches the control bore. It also brings the control bore closer to the ball and helps eliminate blow-by gases.
I don't know how it will perform with breaks or accuracy as of right now, but as soon as I try it out, I will let you guys know.
EDIT: There is an update to this post later in the thread here: http://www.techpb.co...w...st&p=453213
