Alpha Surface Contamination
The standard electret ion chamber can be modified to include a thin window that allows alpha particles to enter the sensitive volume, thus becoming an alpha monitor. One standard version has a depth of 2.8 cm, diameter of 8 cm with window made of aluminized Mylar of thickness 0.8 mg/cm2. Detailed work was carried out on the topic of "Utilization of Electret Ion Chambers for Characterization of Gross Alpha Emission from Indoor Surfaces" under a CRADA (Cooperative Research and Development Agreement) program between Rad Elec Inc. and Oak Ridge National laboratory. This has been published in 1993 USDOE Methods Compendium Protocol and is available on request. It is usable for routine alpha survey of alpha contaminated surfaces such as concrete, wood, vinyl floors or painted surfaces with sensitivity requirement of DOE clearance limit. Versions with larger volume are also available. These can be used with or without window. Following publications are available for further details:
Thoron in Air
Thoron is an isotope of radon, which originates from thorium and has a very short half life of about 1 minute. Measuring Thoron is important in some areas rich in thorium or in areas where thorium is handled. Thoron can also be an interference in measuring radon. The standard E-PERMs are designed to minimize the response to 220Rn (thoron) by restricting the diffusion entry time. This is achieved by having a very small area filter for the passive diffusion. Because of short half life (about one minute); it decays before entering the active area of the E-PERM. The chamber of such unit was modified deliberately by increasing the filtered diffusion area from 0.3 cm2 to 30 cm2 to allow thoron to diffuse into the chamber with very little delay time. This modified unit is called the Radon-Thoron E-PERM or RT E-PERM because it responds to both radon and thoron.
The figure shows a schematic view of the RT E-PERM. A series of holes were drilled in the body of the chamber, and the holes subsequently covered with an electrically conducting filter paper (carbon coated Tyvek paper of 0.06 mm thickness). The area of the opening was about 30 cm2. These were calibrated by exposing to known thoron atmosphere in a thoron test facility of CANMET, Elliot Lake Laboratory, Mining Research Laboratory, and Elliot Lake, CANADA. It is necessary to expose a set consisting of one radon and one radon-thorn E-PERM simultaneously in the test atmosphere. Results are used to calculate both radon and thoron concentrations in air.
Tritium in Air and Water and on Surfaces
Electret ion chambers with large filtered openings provide access to tritium vapors. Being an ionizing vapor, it is detected. Incorporating such detectors inside a sealed jar containing tritium contaminated water provides a means of determining tritium concentration in water. A windowless device is used for assessing tritium on surfaces.
Additional information is available from Rad Elec Inc. Following publications are available for more details:
Environmental Gamma Radiation, Low energy X rays
Electret ion chambers become gamma monitors when sealed in a radon leak tight enclosures. Usually sealable Mylar bags or any other enclosures are used. These provide integrated gamma exposure over a time, in units of mR or nGy. Dividing such exposure by exposure period leads to the average exposure rate.
Chambers being made of electrically conducting plastic, these provide energy independent response. These have been used in the place of TLDs. certain areas where low energy gamma emitters such as Americium-241, EICs provide superior performance over TLDs. For very low energy applications the EICs with thin windows, such as 7 mg/cm2 thick carbon coated Tyvek, are used. With a choice of different chamber volumes and electrets, a wide variety of sensitivities and ranges are possible. For more information, please contact REI for details. Following publications provide additional information:
Beta Dosimetry Applications
Electret ion chambers with a conducting Tyvek window have been used for measuring beta dose rates. Passive beta particle dosimeters are needed for several applications including monitoring the environment around nuclear reactors and the contaminated atmospheres found in many nuclear facilities. An electret ion chamber with window area of 50 cm2, a volume of 144 cm2, a window (carbon coated Tyvek) thickness of 7 mg cm-2 and a depth of 2.88 cm is built and calibrated to meet the requirement. These find use in characterizing beta sources used in medical applications. Please see the brochure (page 6 of this manual) for further information.
As pointed out earlier, 90Sr-Y is used for calibration. Limited experiments carried out indicated that the response was within 15 % of the correct value for different standard beta radiation sources (204Tl with average beta energy of 0.244 MeV and 147Pm with average beta energy of 0.062 MeV) used for calibration purposes
Please contact Rad Elec for additional information.
Ion Concentration in Air
Positive and negative ions are produced in air, mainly due to radon and terrestrial/cosmic radiation sources. Measuring ion concentration in air indirectly provides a measure of these sources. Electrets (electrically charged piece of Teflon) when exposed in the environment collect ions of opposite sign, leading to a measurable decrease in charge, depending upon the exposure time and ion concentration. This work describes a method of correlating electret discharge rate to the ion concentration as measured by a calibrated ion density meter. Once calibrated, electrets can then be used to measure ion concentration of either sign. Air ion concentration in ambient air was measured to be about 200-ion ml-1, measured over several hours. Both positive and negative ion concentrations were similar. In a typical room, negative ion concentration was about 3500 ml-1 and surprisingly, there were no positive ions at all in that room. Being an integrating passive device, method provides a unique possibility of measuring low or high concentrations of positive or negative ions over extended periods, which is difficult to do with other ion concentration measuring instruments.
Measurement of Fast Neutrons
Electret ion chambers (EIC) are passive integrating ionization chambers consisting of a stable electret mounted inside a small chamber made of electrically conducting polypropylene. The electret, a charged Teflon(R) disk, serves both as a source of the electrostatic field and as a sensor. Ions produced by radiation inside the chamber are collected on the electret, causing a reduction of its surface charge. The reduction in charge is measured using a portable electret surface charge reader. Such a reduction is a function of the total ionization during the period of measurement. With appropriate calibration, the measured reduction in charge is converted into appropriate units of radiation. EICs are widely used for indoor radon measurements and for environmental gamma radiation. The 200 ml EIC responds to both fast neutrons (caused by the interaction of hydrogen in polypropylene and the release of ionizing protons into the sensitive volume) and gamma radiation. Such chambers are called GFN-EICs. The chambers lined with 1.5 mm thick carbon coated Teflon (Teflon does not have hydrogen and therefore does not respond to fast neutrons) respond only to gamma radiation. These chambers are called G-EICs. When the G-EICs are coated with boron-carbide, they become sensitive to thermal neutrons(thermal neutrons interact with the boron releasing ionizing alpha radiation into the sensitive volume). These chambers are called GTN-EICs. The G, GFN and GTN are deployed simultaneously in mixed radiation fields to resolve and measure gamma, thermal neutrons and fast neutron dose equivalents. These EICs were calibrated using the NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) Standard NS-100 252Cf as a fast neutron source and NS-130 252Cf D2O moderated as a thermal neutron source. The NIST 137Cs gamma standard was used to calibrate G-EICs. The lower limit of detection (defined as the dose equivalents measurable with an error of ±25%) is 40 mrem for fast neutrons, 10 mrem for thermal neutrons and 3 mrem for gamma radiation. The EICs exhibited very little directional dependence (less than 10%) and dose rate dependence over the two orders of magnitudes covered by the different NS standards. Being passive integrators, these can be left in the field for extended period to measure very low dose equivalent rates

I attended a queen rearing class in Jan. with Dan Purvis as speaker and he said if you want to make a million keeping bees you need to invest three million. He has gotten out of Queen rearing and is going into the educational thing.
Something I have thought a little about, there are lots of questions and variables, is buying some honey from local commercial beek and selling it under a different label. In 2011 the local beek would sell 55 gal drum of honey for $1000. If you were bottle it, and had sales for it, you could make a good profit. Just a thought.Joe
blanc, are you coming to Bud5? If so we can have a looong chat about it. There are so many variables involved that there is no set answer. The more hives the bigger the initial investment and at some point you would need to hire help.Scott

Hi all,
I'm looking to have a PrePro flghtsuit and vest custom tailored in my size. I've tried some searches, but nothing is coming up (too many variables on PP2, PP3, PrePro, Pre-Pro, etc to narrow down the search properly - admin?)
Hope someone can point me in the right direction!

Interesting to see how other people set up their distros, cool post.
I'm not sure exactly where this post should go, I would think the How-To section but I can't seem to post there, so here it lies.
I put together a blog post that details the configurations, installs, and tweaks I do on a BT install after installing to HD. It's kind of a running list (started with BT 3) that I update for myself as new releases come out that I decided to post up to my blog. I figured I'd share it with everyone.....hope someone finds it useful. And, if you have any tips or tricks that you want share I'd love to hear about them.
Anyways the link to the blog is http://losingfocus.net/blog/blog1.ph...th-backtrack-5

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Oh and it turns out that my friend with the Model A had a 5.4 DOHC, which is a fair amount wider.
I have a 4 bar setup and 4" dropped tube axle on my 39 sedan and I have to say that it handles and rides very well, I am considering the R&P IFS setup to get a front steer setup. I am using a 605 box in my 39 with a SBC and the exhaust cooks the seals in the 605 to where I have to rebuild it every 25K miles or so.
After looking at a few more stock modular exhaust setups I might be able to get away with having a rear steer setup. It would save a ton of money and work if I could go with a 4" dropped axle.
I found some measurements for the 4.6 & 5.4 DOHC engines today and the 4.6 maybe narrow enough for me to juggle it in without butchering the firewall.
Some things do come to mind for this project..The ranger rear end springs and all will do for the rear..for the engine measure up a 4.6 as I have seen several of those installed into the early models..With the ifs swap you will not need to clear the wishbones however if it were mine to do I would split the wishbones and use the Ford axle with a 4" drop..those work just fine and a lot of guys go for the ifs just because..just food fro thought..
1940 Ford Modular Engine Swap
I just picked up a '40 Deluxe Convertible project - stock frame, front & rear suspension, no engine or trans. Body very straight with all the trim and stock bits and pieces.
My build target is a restomod type, stock body and paint, wide whites etc, with IFS rack & pinion and parallel leaf rear - 9" and since it will be a driver I want a late model computer controlled FI engine and overdrive transmission. I have seen several LS1,3 & even a 7 with 4L80E transmissions swaps in 40's that look very good. Nice fit etc.
However, I would really like to put a Ford in it.
I would like a 5.4 DOHC with an AOD-E or the new Boss 302, but I really dont think there is enough room between the inner fender panels to accomadate the wide valve covers of the DOHC. I have seen a couple of '40's with 392 Hemis that "just" fit maybe 1/4" clearance on each side. A friend of mine put a 4.6 DOHC in his Model A told me that the 4.6 was about 3 1/2 wider than a 392...
So, has anyone seen or ideally done a 4.6/5.4 3 valve SOHC engine in a 40? The nice thing about the 3 valve was that it was used in almost all of the 150 trucks and SUVs so it should be fairly easy to find a reasonably priced low milage donor.
Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions - about the only thing I wont consider is a flathead - been there, done that - didnt have a great time...

Hey all...
Does anyone have any good pics of RA's Gauntlets they could share?
Hey all...
Does anyone have any good pics of RA's Gauntlets they could share?
Does RA have an ESB version? I asked about these 3-4 weeks ago and he said that he didn't have an ESB version.
Just wondering...because if he does have them. I am all over that.
Im not sure if he does or not...was just curious if he did or not.
No RA does not...........
I have ESB gauntlet kits available, check this link out for pics.
Just a quick endorsement:
I have a pair of Ruffkintoy's RotJ gauntlets and they certainly do rock!
For the cash, you won't find anything better, IMO!
Nice guy too.
(you can send me the $5 by paypal, Chuck )
Seriously, though, I couldn't be happier and would have no hesitation heartily recommending these. From the pics, the ESB ones look every bit as good as the RotJ ones.
Thanks Si, I'll get you that $5.00 asap
Ruffkin - Sent you a PM.
PM sent.

Mumbai's color-charged markets are a riot of sights, smells, tastes, and sounds. This action-packed walking tour takes you through a handful of the city's bazaars in the Kalbadevi and Bhuleshwar vicinity. En route, you'll also visit several places of worship. Make sure you wear comfortable shoes, dress conservatively, and keep your valuables tucked away in a well-concealed money belt.
Kick off your market march at the renowned (1) Crawford Market (Mahatma Phule Market) located on the corner of Dr. DN and Lokmanya Tilak Roads. This sprawling bazaar, built in the mid-1800s, sells everything from fresh fruit and vegetables to livestock and household items. Take a few moments to admire the building's beautiful exterior bas relief work, designed by Rudyard Kipling's father, Lockwood Kipling.
From the frenetic Crawford Market, head north up Sheikh Memon Street, and where it meets Janjikar Street, you'll find the 18th-century (2) Jama Masjid. This is one of the city's oldest mosques and from the outside you can catch a peek of its puffy domes and slender minarets. Note that only Muslims are permitted inside the prayer hall.
Keep walking north along Sheikh Memon Street. Near the corner of Sheikh Memon Street and Mumbadevi Road (the latter appearing to your right) is the (3) Mumbadevi Temple, bustling with Hindu worshippers. Dedicated to the goddess Mumba, it is from her that Mumbai is said to have derived its name.
From Sheikh Memon Street continue north to the bubbly (4) Bhuleshwar Market, at the corner of Kalbadevi Road (to your right). Comprised of a series of stalls, this market is divided into sections that sell a wide range of products from food items to women's accessories.
Keep walking north along Sheikh Memon Street, turning right at CP Tank Road (which becomes Brigadier Usman Road), where you'll soon arrive at (5) Yadnik Chowk, an interesting stretch of the road where tradesmen (such as plumbers) sit patiently, awaiting jobs.
From Yadnik Chowk, turn left into nearby Maulana Azad Road South and keep walking north until you reach the lively (6) Shiva Temple at the junction with SV Patel Road. Here you can watch devotees paying their respects to the Hindu god, Lord Shiva.
From the Shiva Temple turn left at the next street to the east, Bara Imam Road. Not far along this road, at the junction with Mutton Street, is your final stop, the (7) Mutton Street Market. Among the knickknacks sold here (and in the surrounding lanes of Chor Bazaar), can be found some rewarding "antiques" (usually replicas) and bric-a-brac, but you'll need to hunt hard.

Matching family tree profiles for Richard le Goz, Viscount of Avranches
Immediate Family
About Richard le Goz, Viscount of Avranches
Richard 'le Goz', Vicomte d'Avranches
Parents: Toustain le Goz and Judith Montanolier (or Monteroulier)
Spouse: Emma (perhaps de Conteville, parentage unknown)
- Hugues d'Avranches 'Lupus'
- Marguerite, married Ranulf Vicomte du Bessin
- Helisende, married Guillaume [II] Comte d'Eu
- Judith, married Richer de Laigle
Thurstan & his wife had two children:
a) RICHARD "le Goz" (-after 1082). Guillaume de Jumièges names "Richard fils de Toustain", specifying that he served Guillaume II Duke of Normandy faithfully after his father's rebellion[620]. "…Turstinci vicecomitis…Turstinci Gazel…Richardi filii Turstinci, Roberti fratris eius…" witnessed the charter dated to [1047 or before] under which Guillaume II Duke of Normandy confirmed the donation by "Adelelmi…Beatricis uxor eius…Rotberti filius eius" to the abbey of Mont-Saint-Michel[621]. Vicomte d'Avranches. "…Richardi filii Torestini…" witnessed the charter dated to [1055] under which Guillaume II Duke of Normandy donated property to the abbey of Marmoutier[622]. "…Willelmi filii Osberti, Rotgerii de Monte Golmerii, Richardis vicecomitis Abrinchensis…" witnessed the charter dated [1055/56] under which Guillaume II Duke of Normandy "in pago…Constantino, villam…Flotomannum" to Saint-Florent de Saumur[623]. "…Ricardus vicecomes Abrincatinus…" witnessed the charter dated 1064 under which Guillaume II Duke of Normandy settled a claim in favour of the monks of Marmoutier relating to property donated by "Guido de Valle"[624]. The Chronique de Normandie, based on le Roman de Rou, names "Richart d´Avrenchin" among those who took part in the conquest of England in 1066[625]. "Richardi filii Torsteingoiz" witnessed a charter of William I King of England dated 1069[626]. Orderic Vitalis names him as the son of Thurstan[627]. "Ricardo filio Turstini Guz et Guillelmo Caritate, Fulkoque filio Gerardi Budel atque Radulfo de Ollei" are named as present in the charter dated 30 Nov 1074 under which Odo Bishop of Bayeux bought "la terre de Chernet" from "Herberto de Agnellis", with the consent of "suo domino Radulfo de Conchis"[628].
m EMMA, daughter of ---. A manuscript relating to St Werburgh´s Chester records that "Hugo Lupus filius ducis Britanniæ et nepos Gulielmi magni ex sorore" transformed the foundation into a monastery[629]. This suggests that Hugues´s mother may have been a uterine sister of King William, and therefore daughter of Herluin de Conteville. However, no indication has been in other primary sources which supports the contention that Hugues was the son of a duke of Brittany. It is assumed therefore that both lines of his parentage have been romanticised in this document to improve his status and reputation.
Vicomte Richard & his wife had four children:
i) HUGUES d'Avranches "Lupus"[630] ([1047]-St Werburg's Abbey, Chester 27 Jul 1101). He is named as son of Richard "le Goz" by Orderic Vitalis[631]. William I King of England granted him the whole of the county palatine of Chester[632] in 1071, whereby he is held to have become Earl of Chester.
- EARLS of CHESTER.
ii) MARGUERITE [Maud] d'Avranches . She is named "Mathilda soror Hugonis comitis" by Orderic Vitalis, who also names her son[633].
m RANULF Vicomte du Bessin, son of RANULF Vicomte du Bessin & his wife Alix de Normandie.
iii) HELISENDE d'Avranches . Her marriage is referred to by Orderic Vitalis, who says that she was the sister of Hugh Earl of Chester but does not give her name[634]. The primary source which confirms her name has not yet been identified.
m as his second wife, GUILLAUME [II] Comte d'Eu, son of ROBERT Comte d'Eu & his first wife Beatrix --- (-2 Jan after 1096).
iv) JUDITH d'Avranches . She is named as wife of Richer de Laigle by Orderic Vitalis, who also names her father and brother[635]. "Robertus…" donated property to Chartres Saint-Père by charter dated to [1101/17], confirmed by "Gisleberti…de Aquila" and witnessed by "Gisleberti de Aquila, Julite eiusdem matris et Juliane uxoris ipsius"[636]. "Richer de Aquila son of Ingenulf de Aquila" donated property to the abbey of Saint-Evroul by charter dated to [1099] (although this date is incorrect if the date of his death is as shown above), witnessed by "…Judiht uxore mea, filia Richardi de Abrincis et sorore Hugonis comitis Cestrensis"[637]. "Robertus…" donated property to Chartres Saint-Père by charter dated to [1101/17], confirmed by "Gisleberti…de Aquila" and witnessed by "Gisleberti de Aquila, Julite eiusdem matris et Juliane uxoris ipsius"[638].
m RICHER de Laigle, son of ENGENULF & his wife --- (-killed Dec 1085).
An excerpt from The Conqueror and His Companions by J.R. Planché, Somerset Herald. London: Tinsley Brothers, 1874. as excerpted on http://patp.us/genealogy/conq/avranche.aspx:
Here is a personage who, under the more popular name of Hugh Lupus, is perhaps almost as well known as the Conqueror himself.
Wace in his "Roman de Rou," speaks only of his father Richard: "D'Avrancin i fu Richarz." But it is generally contended that Richard was not in the battle, and that it was Hugh, his son, who accompanied William to Hastings. The authors of "Les Recherches sur le Domesday," to whom we are so deeply indebted for information on these points, hesitate to endorse the opinion of Mons. le Prévost upon these grounds, -- that Richard was living as late as 1082, when he appears as a witness to a charter of Roger de Montgomeri, in favour of St. Stephen's at Caen, to which also his son, Earl Hugh, is a subscriber. Their observations only point, however, to the probability of Richard, who in 1066 was Seigneur or Vicomte of Avranches, having been in the Norman army of invasion, as he survived the event some sixteen years; at the same time they deny that there is any proof that his son Hugh was in the battle, and assert, without stating on what authority, that Hugh only joined the Conqueror in England after the victory at Senlac, when he rendered the new King most important services by his valour and ability in the establishment of William on the throne, and contributed greatly towards the reduction of the Welsh to obedience. That there is authority for their assertion appears from the cartulary of the Abbey of Whitby, quoted by Dugdale in his "Monasticon," (Mon. Ang. vol. i, p. 72) where we read distinctly that Hugh Earl of Chester and William de Percy came into England with William the Conqueror in 1067: "Anno Domini millesimo sexagesimo septimo," and that the King gave Whitby to Hugo, which Hugo afterwards gave to William de Percy, the founder of the abbey there.
We have here, therefore, a parallel case to that of Roger de Montgomeri (Vide vol i, p. 181), and must similarly treat it as an open question.
The descent of Richard, surnamed Goz, Le Gotz, or Le Gois, from Ansfrid the Dane, the first who bore that surname, has been more or less correctly recorded, but in "Les Recherches" it will be found critically examined and carried up to Rongwald, or Raungwaldar, Earl of Maere and the Orcades in the days of Harold Harfager, or the Fair-haired; which said Rongwald was the father of Hrolf, or Rollo, the first Duke of Normandy. Rongwald, like the majority of his countrymen and kinsmen, had several children by a favourite slave, whom he had married "more Danico," and Hrolf Turstain, th.e son of one of them, having followed his uncle Rollo into Normandy, managed to secure the hand of Gerlotte de Blois, daughter of Thibaut Count of Blois and Chartres, which seems to have been the foundation of this branch of the great Norse family in Normandy, and the stock from which descended the Lords of Briquebec, of Bec-Crispin, of Montfort-sur-Risle, and others who figure as companions of the Conqueror.
The third son of Gerlotte was Ansfrid the Dane, the first Vicomte of the Hiemois, and father of Ansfrid the second, surnamed Goz, above mentioned, whose son Turstain (Thurstan, or Toustain) Goz was the great favouritc of Robert Duke of Normandy, the father of the Conqueror, and accompanied him to the Holy Land, and was intrusted to bring back the relics the Duke had obtained from the Patriarch of Jerusalem to present to the Abbey of Cerisi, which he had founded. Revolting against the young Duke William in 1041 (Vide vol. i, p. 21), Turstain was exiled, and his lands confiscated and given by the Duke to his mother, Herleve, wife of Herluin de Conteville.
Richard Goz, Vicomte d'Avranches, or more properly of the Avranchin, was one of the sons of the aforesaid Turstain, by his wife Judith de Montanolier, and appears not only to have avoided being implicated in the rebellion of his father, but obtained his pardon and restoration to the Vicomté of the Hiemois, to which at his death he succeeded, and to have strengthened his position at court by securing the hand of Emma de Conteville, one of the daughters of Herluin and Herleve, and half-sister of his sovereign. By this fortunate marriage he naturally recovered the lands forfeited by his father and bestowed on his mother-in-law, and acquired also much property in the Avranchin, of which he obtained the Vicomté, in addition to that of the Hiemois.
There was every reason, therefore, that he should follow his three brothers-in-law in the expedition to England, if not prevented by illness or imperative circumstances. He must have been their senior by some twenty years, but still scarcely past the prime of life, and his son Hugh a stripling under age, as his mother, if even older than her brothers Odo and Robert, could not have been born before 1030, and if married at sixteen, her son in 1066 would not be more than nineteen at the utmost. Mr. Freeman, who places the marriage of Herleve with Herluin after the death of Duke Robert in 1035, would reduce this calculation by at least six years, rendering the presence of her grandson Hugh at Senlac more than problematical. It is at any rate clear that he must have been a very young man at the time of the Conquest. That "he came into England with William the Conqueror," as stated by Dugdale, does not prove that he was in the army at Hastings, and is reconcilable with the assertion in the "Recherches," that he joined him after the Conquest, corroborated by the cartulary of Whitby, before mentioned; very probably coming with him in the winter of 1067, and in company with Roger de Montgomeri, respecting whose first appearance in England the same diversity of opinion exists, and it might be his assistance in suppressing the rebellion in the West and other parts of the kingdom that gained him the favour of the King, and ultimately the Earldom of Chester, at that time enjoyed by Gherbod the Fleming, brother of Gundrada. The gift of Whitby, in Yorkshire, to Hugh, which he soon afterwards gave to William de Percy, would seem to show that he had been employed against the rebels beyond the Humber in 1068.
In 1071, Gherbod Earl of Chester being summoned to Flanders by those to whom he had intrusted the management of his hereditary domains, whatever they were, obtained from King William leave to make a short visit to that country; but while there his evil fortune led him into a snare, and falling into the hands of his enemies, he was thrown into a dungeon, "where he endured," says Orderic, "the sufferings of a long captivity, cut off from all the blessings of life." Whether he ended his days in that dungeon Orderic does not tell us. A little more information respecting this Gherbod and his sister would be a great boon to us. At present, what we hear about them is so vague that it looks absolutely suspicious.
In consequence of this "evil fortune" which befell Gherbod, the King, continues Orderic, gave the earldom of Chester to Hugh d'Avranches, son of Richard, surnamed Goz, who, in concert with Robert de Rhuddlan and Robert de Malpas, and other fierce knights, made great slaughter amongst the Welsh.
Hugh was in fact a Count Palatine, and had the county of Chester granted to him to hold as freely by the sword as the King held the kingdom by the crown. He was all but a king himself, and had a court, and barons, and officers, such as became a sovereign prince.
We hear but little of him during the remainder of the reign of William the Conqueror, but in the rebellion against Rufus, in 1096, he stood loyally by his sovereign; he is charged, however, with having barbarously blinded and mutilated his brother-in-law, William Comte d'Eu, who had been made prisoner in that abortive uprising. In the same year he is also accused of committing great cruelties upon the Welsh in the Isle of Anglesea, which he ravaged in conjunction with Hugh de Montgomeri, Earl of Shrewsbury, who lost his life at that period in resisting the landing of the Norwegians nnder Magnus III, King of Norway. The Norse poet tells us the Earl of Shrewsbury was so completely enveloped in armour that nothing could be seen of his person but one eye. "King Magnus let fly an arrow at him, as also did a Heligoland man who stood beside the King. They both shot at once. The one shaft struck the nose-guard of the helmet, and bent it on one side, the other arrow hit the Earl in the eye and passed through his head, and this arrow was found to be the King's."
Giraldus Cambrensis gives a similar account, adding some few details, such as the derisive exclamation of Magnus, "Leit loupe! " -- "Let him leap!" as the Earl sprang from the saddle when struck, and fell dead into the sea.
As this Earl of Shrewsbury was called by the Welsh "Goch," or "the Red," from the colour of his hair, so was Hugh Earl of Chester called "Vras," or "the Fat." His popular name of Lupus, or "the Wolf," is not to be traced to his own times, and Dugdale observes that it was an addition in after ages for the sake of distinction; about the same time, I presume, that the heralds invented the coat of arms for him -- "Azure, a wolf's head, erased, argent " -- suggested, probably, by the name, which, if indeed of contemporary antiquity, might have been given him for his gluttony, a vice to which Orderic says he was greatly addicted. "This Hugh," he tells us, "was not merely liberal, but prodigal; not satisfied with being surrounded by his own retainers, he kept an army on foot. He set no bounds either to his generosity or his rapacity. He continually wasted even his own domains, and gave more encouragement to those who attended him in hawking and hunting than to the cultivators of the soil or the votaries of Heaven. He indulged in gluttony to such a degree that he could scarcely walk. He abandoned himself immoderately to carnal pleasures, and had a numerous progeny of illegitimate children of both sexes, but they have been almost all carried off by one misfortune or another."
With all this he displayed that curious veneration for the Church common to his age, which so ill accorded with the constant violation of its most divine precepts. He founded the Abbey of St. Sever in Normandy, and was a great benefactor to those of Bec and Ouche (St. Evroult) in that duchy, and also to the Abbey of Whitby in Yorkshire, and in 1092 restored the ancient Abbey of St. Werburgh at Chester, and endowed it with ample possessions, substituting Benedictine monks in lieu of the secular canons who had previously occupied it; Richard, a monk of Bec, being brought over by Abbot Anselm, the Earl's confessor and afterwards the great Archbishop of Canterbury, to be the first abbot of the new community.
Being seized with a fatal illness, this pious profligate assumed the monastic habit in the Abbey of St. Werburgh, and three days after being shorn a monk died therein, 6th kalends of August (July 27), 1101.
By his Countess Ermentrude, daughter of Hugh Comte de Clermont, in Beauvoisis, and Margaret de Rouci, his wife, he had one son, Richard, seven years of age at the time of his father's death, who succeeded him in the earldom, married Matilda de Blois, daughter of Stephen, Count of Blois, by Adela, daughter of William the Conqueror, and perished with his young wife in the fatal wreck of the White Ship in 1119, leaving no issue. -=-------------------=
The Avranchin is an area in Normandy, France, corresponding to the territory of the Abrincates, tribe of Celts who also gave their name to the city of Avranches, main town of the Avranchin.
In 867, by the Treaty of Compiègne, Charles the Bald gave the Avranchin to Salaün, King of Britanny. Then in 933 it was reunited to the Duchy of Normandy by William I, Duke of Normandy.

# Note:
There was every reason, therefore, that he should follow his three brothers-in-law in the expedition to England, if not prevented by illness or imperative circumstances. He must have been their senior by some twenty years, but still scarcely past the prime of life, and his son Hugh a stripling under age, as his mother, if even older than her brothers Odo and Robert, could not have been born before 1030, and if married at sixteen, her son in 1066 would not be more than nineteen at the utmost. Mr. Freeman, who places the marriage of Herleve with Herluin after the death of Duke Robert in 1035, would reduce this calculation by at least six years, rendering the presence of her grandson Hugh at Senlac more than problematical.
Richard le Goz, vicomte d' Avranches, was "Earl of Aurenches and Viscount of Albania"
Richard naturally recovered the lands forfeited by his father and bestowed on his mother-in-law, and acquired also much property in the Avranchin, of which he obtained the Vicomté, in addition to that of the Hiemois, by his "fortunate marriage" to Emma de Conteville, daughter of Herluin de Conteville and Herlève de Falaise, before 1040 in Normandy.
Richard managed to avoid being implicated in the rebellion of his father, but he obtained his pardon and restoration, in 1041.
Richard died after 1082.

Richard le Goz, Vicomte d'Avranches The marriage to Emma de Conteville has been widely disputed. He married Emma de Conteville, daughter of Harlowen de Burgo, Comte de Conteville and Arlotta of Falaise. Richard le Goz, Vicomte d'Avranches was born circa 1025 at Avranches, France. He died after 1082.
Avranchin From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A map of Avranchin from 1716 The Avranchin is an area in Normandy, France corresponding to the territory of the Abrincatui, a tribe of Celts from whom the city of Avranches, the main town of the Avranchin, takes its name.
In 867, by the Treaty of Compiègne, Charles the Bald gave the Avranchin to Salomon, King of Brittany. In 933 it was reunited with the Duchy of Normandy by William I of Normandy.

'The game ended with controversy. With less than three minutes left in the game, the Sabres peppered the net and appeared to score. A few camera angles show the puck crossing the goal line under Kolzig, but ultimately the play was ruled no goal because the referee's whistle sounded. However, in his post game interview, Jason Pominville said that the explanation was that the play was ruled inconclusive.'

ARSC T3E Users' Newsletter 175, August 13, 1999
Stricter CF90 Pre-Processor in PE 3.2Last month we made a suggestion: when possible, use the Fortran pre-processor on Fortran codes (and save cpp for C/C++). Here's another: watch out out for white space!
In CF90 3.2 the pre-processor requires that no white space exist between a macro name and the left parenthesis beginning its argument list in either macro definition or invocation. This is a behavior change from CF90 3.1 and differs from cpp. (It is documented in the on-line manual--see below.)
Here's an example from the last week's quick-tip. First, the correct version:
program test #define MOD(x,y) mod(int(x),int(y)) ! Correct integer*4 int4 integer*8 int8, res8 int4 = 4 int8 = 5 res8 = MOD(int8, int4) ! Correct print*, res8 endCF90 3.2, CF90 3.0, and cpp all handle this as expected. If we run it through "f90 -F -eZ", which says to expand macros in any area of the code and to write the pre-processed code to a ".i" file, we obtain this:
YUKON$ f90 -F -eZ test.f YUKON$ cat test.i # 1 "test.f" program test integer*4 int4 integer*8 int8, res8 int4 = 4 int8 = 5 res8 = mod(int(int8),int(int4)) ! Correct print*, res8 endMISTAKE #1:
Adding a space in the macro definition is always a mistake:
#define MOD (x,y) mod(int(x),int(y)) ! IncorrectAll of the pre-processors use white space to delimit the name from its definition. Thus, this mistake creates a macro, "MOD," which has no parameters and the unwanted definition, "(x,y) mod(int(x),int(y))". Introducing this error into the sample code and running it through cpp shows the outcome:
YUKON$ cpp test.f #line 1 "test.f" program test integer*4 int4 integer*8 int8, res8 int4 = 4 int8 = 5 res8 = (x,y) mod(int(x),int(y))(int8, int4) print*, res8 endMISTAKE #2:
Adding a space in the macro invocation is a mistake under CF90 3.2:
res8 = MOD (int8, int4) ! IncorrectThe pre-processor simply doesn't recognize this as an invocation of the macro. Adding this error to the sample code and running it through the CF90 3.2 pre-processor produces this:
YUKON$ f90 -F -eP test.f YUKON$ cat test.i # 1 "test.f" program test integer*4 int4 integer*8 int8, res8 int4 = 4 int8 = 5 res8 = MOD (int8, int4) print*, res8 endErrors in pre-processing can be hard to find. If in doubt, store the pre-processed code in a file and in a separate step, compile that file.
A more rigorous explanation of pre-processor macros follows. This is from the "CF90 Commands and Directives Manual," available from either SGI's techpubs server, http://techpubs.sgi.com/ or ARSC's on-line doc server, http://www.arsc.edu:40/.

Fortran's Future: Researcher Requests Responses to SurveyNiki Reid, a PhD student at the University of Belfast, is conducting research into the Fortran language. As part of the project, she requests input from the Fortran community. If you have a chance, please fill out the survey at:
http://www.cs.qub.ac.uk/~N.Reid/A paper describing the project appeared in the Journal of the ACM Fortran Forum (Vol 18 Number 2), and we've included some excerpts here:
This paper outlines current research into a prescriptive semantics of Fortran 95, as a means of investigating the language's strengths and shortcomings. Additionally it is intended that this research will provide a foundation for the application of rigour to Fortran programming.
1. Background
Fortran is a language in flux. While it cannot be doubted that the current dialect, Fortran 95, presents a significant improvement over its predecessor, Fortran 77, some serious shortcomings remain. Given that the current dialect is even now being revised and extended it is imperative that its shortcomings be uncovered to prevent their inclusion in the next generation. Some of the primary objectives for any programming language are [Hoare 1969]: simplicity, readability, machine independence, a large and useful library, existing popularity and sponsorship by a large and powerful organisation.
[ ... ]
4. Fortran Users Survey
To assist the research programme an on-line survey has been developed, from which it is hoped to glean the different uses Fortran is being put to, what type of users predominate, and the types of system in use. Additionally, it is of interest to know what the users perceive as the future of Fortran. On the whole this survey is designed to provide mostly background information, but may have an impact on the direction the research takes. Most questions require only selection of an answer, but comment boxes abound should you wish to make further comment. The greater the response there is to this survey, the more helpful the results will be - please take the time to fill it in!
[ ... ]
We hope to print some results from this research in this newsletter.

DAA 300 grams powder
- Product Review (submitted on September 28, 2011):
This product works hands down. So many studies to show it works. this is actually a prescription fertility drug in Italy. It was brought to the bodybuilding community and if a man is lower to moderate testosterone levels it brings them to high. if a mans testosterone levels are high it really doesn't do much. I dont know how this works in women.
One of the best discoveries in testosterone boosters in a long time. I did it for one month, and noticed great benefits, better mood- at least i thought so, took a week off and now back on it.

TV ad provides gun warning
Originally published January 11, 2007
The state's top federal prosecutor is paying three Baltimore television stations more than $41,000 to air a new public service announcement starting today about the potential perils faced by felons charged with federal gun crimes.
With a voice-over by Emmy award-winning actor Andre Braugher, who starred in Homicide: Life on the Street, the new ad warns criminals about the consequences of carrying a gun in Maryland.
A man sits on a couch in the ad when his cell phone rings. "Yo," he says. "A'right." Then he picks up a handgun on the table.
The ad flashes immediately to the man locked in a jail cell, appearing to rue the day he picked up the weapon.
"Guns are too hot to hold," Braugher says in his voice-over. "Maryland Exile: Gun crime equals jail time." The ad also quotes three cases where felons caught with guns received substantial prison sentences, including one life term.
The ad cost $30,000 in federal funds to produce, officials said.
"If we get the message to criminals and prevent them from carrying guns, we will save lives and we won't have to pay to prosecute them and incarcerate them," Maryland U.S. Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein said in an e-mail yesterday.
The ads are set to air over the next month on local television channels 2, 11 and 13.

I'd vote Loveland as well in your situation. Even though Copper, Breck and the like have high speed lifts, that entire 5 minutes you save on the chair means nothing when you stand in line for 30 minutes just to get the chair. Lift 2 at Love is something like a 12-14 minute ride... Then there are a lot of places to go from there. Plenty of warming huts etc. Short, quick lines even on a busy day. I don't think I've ever sat in line at Loveland for more than 10 minutes, and that's on a busy weekend or holiday. During the week, maybe 2-3 minutes on a badass powder day.
I'd rather sit and freeze to death on a slow chair than wait 30 minutes for a high speed lift but that's just me.
If you ask, they will slow the chair down for your father. I'd suggest giving him a half day lesson each day in the early am, and allowing him to practice his stuff in the afternoon. I think it will make his visit a lot more comfortable and progressive. Don't just slap some equipment on his feet and get in line lol. I'd also rent his equipment from TBS/Empire sports depending on what he's riding. That's IF you are renting equipment. There is a Breeze sports shop there too but I don't feel like they put as much effort towards getting peeps the right equipment or setting it up as well. Just an opinion from a guy who used to live a few doors down the street from both shops.....
Empire Sports
|Anything not in Summit County it gets the most skier visits in North America. Seriously fuck that place no one should ever shred there, EVER!
Thank you all so much! Your advice is all very helpful. So I think I'm going to go with Loveland. Lot of snow, good beginner terrain, about 1 & 1/2 hour closer to me, less crowds, and a good vertical. Sounds great to me. Plus $30 lift tickets? Can't beat that. Again thank you all for your advice, can't wait to head out there.

3. Eldora
4. Ski Cooper
5. A-Basin
Some info I would like to know:
-Lift speeds
-avg. snow in Febuary
Keep in mind that I have my dad with me, who has never skied, so it cant be all black diamonds. Also, I am coming from STL so the closer to denver the better.
Thank You,
2. Monarch. Another solid choice. Reasonably priced, fun terrain, and you can find cheap lodging in Salida which is a short drive to the ski area. It is three hours from Denver though, 2 from Colorado Springs. Those are the two closest airports. Snowfall is plentiful on Monarch Pass. It tends to get something from whatever storms roll through the state. Mirkwood Basin is basically a mini golf spot and is a quick hike to spot. Plenty of easy terrain, I would describe it as a family area with some gnar. Not overly extreme but fun. The Vertical is fairly short though. I am not sure if they have anything that breaks over 1k vert. Crowds are non existent.
3. Eldora, I'd skip it. Snowfall in February is usually lacking there. Eldora tends to get it's best storms come March and April. It is a great local hill, but I certainly wouldn't travel to go there. Fixed grip lifts.
4. Ski Cooper. Great for you dad. It is booooorrrring. If you are choosing to go there or Eldora, go to Eldora. Cooper is a kiddie mountain.
5. A-Basin. Plenty of gnar to be had there. It also has runs for less aggressive riders. Though I would say it would be best to be at the intermediate level to enjoy the place. It's small, so it is pretty limiting if you can't at least enjoy intermediate terrain. Great mountain though. Similar snow fall to Loveland. It is awfully rocky, and it takes awhile for the snow to get where you can really enjoy the mountain. February is usually that time. Expect core shots. It can get crowded on weekends.
All of the places you listed have fixed grip lifts. Which means they are not going to be nearly as fast as the detachable quads and such you find at Breck and Keystone. I doubt that will make a difference. Your legs will give out before the day ends if you start near opening time.
Other places mentioned, Copper and Winterpark are great mountains. They also have crowds similar to Keystone and Breck. High speed lifts are standard though. Their four packs are only good for one person. So if it was just two days per person you were looking for, that's $300. Probably not what you want.
It kind of sounds like you want to get away from the usual. I would seriously take a look at Monarch. Salida is a pretty sweet little town. There is a brewery there now, that I have yet to check out. There is also a sweet little winery on the east side of the pass, which means you'll drive by it. Mountain Spirit Winery. There are also decent restaurants in the town. The ski area is close by, but it just doesn't dominate the scene there. You could also just stay at the Monarch lodge. It's a little more expensive than staying in Salida and you don't have the going out options you do in Salida. The restaurant there is fine and it's short drive to the resort from the lodge. They might even have a shuttle.

Tata Motors: Nomura Downgrades To Hold On Recent Share Gain
Shares in Tata Motors (TTM) have advanced 35% in the past three months, outperforming its global luxury car manufacturing peers such as BMW's 14% or Volkswagen's 4.7%.
Nomura Securities analysts Kapil Singh and Nishit Jalan downgraded this stock from Buy to Hold, with a INR 410 target price, saying Tata's earnings do not follow with recent share rise.
For the second-quarter, Tata's margins were not as rosy as the first glance. Here is Nomura:
JLR's reported margins came in at 17.8%, above our expectations of 16.6%. However, we note that this was largely due to benefit of local incentive (GBP 79mn – 1.7% of sales), which is an annual benefit and will not recur in subsequent quarters. Adjusted for this, operating margins came in at 16.1%, which is below our estimates.
On valuation:
With the recent outperformance, at current valuations, JLR is now trading at 3.7x FY15F EV/EBITDA; inline with the average multiple of the automotive businesses of other luxury OEMs, compared to a ~15% discount earlier. We note that although JLR offers higher EBITDA growth, FCF yield at JLR is lower than luxury OEMs such as BMW. Therefore, we don't expect JLR to trade at premium to other bigger luxury OEMs.

Freshman Alex Godzak (Syracuse, N.Y.) has been named a Louisville Slugger National Player of the Week by Collegiate Baseball on Monday. Godzak is the first Golden Griffin to earn the honor since Sean Jamieson on March 28, 2011.
Godzak threw seven no-hit innings as part of the first Division I, nine-inning no-hitter in program history in an 8-0 win over Iona College on Friday afternoon. Godzak overcame walks to the second and third batters of the game before retiring the next 20 batters he faced as the Syracuse, N.Y. native also struck out six in his seven innings of work. The 5-foot-9 lefty combined with sophomore Rohn Pierce and junior Jon Fitzsimmons to no-hit the Gaels, the first no-hitter by Canisius since 1993.
In seven appearances (five starts), Godzak is 4-1 with a 2.48 earned run average. Godzak has 14 walks and 28 strikeouts in 36.1 innings while holding opponents to a .200 batting average.
Canisius returns to the field for a doubleheader at Cornell University on Wednesday. First pitch in Ithaca, N.Y. is set for 2 p.m.

Alumni Trip to Peru
Photos submitted by Sue Endsley on 9/17/2007.
On September 3, Steve Endsley '74 and four other members of Trinity Presbyterian Church of Flower Mound, TX took a five day trip to Peru where they were joined by a missionary couple and two other people on the board of Wycliffe Bible Translators.
The trip to Peru was organized by the Peru Branch of SIL, formerly the Summer Institute of Linguistics. This is the partner organization of Wycliffe Bible Translators engaged in the work of translating the Bible into the minority languages of the world. In Peru the primary minority language is Quechua, of which there are many variations. The Quechua speakers are the descendents of the Inca whose empire was defeated by the Spanish under the leadership of Francisco Pizarro. There are millions of Quechua speakers scattered throughout the Andes.
During the trip we had an opportunity to visit a Quechua village far up in the Andes where we met with a group of women attending a literacy class under the direction of ATEK, a Peruvian partner of SIL. For the first time in their lives the women were learning to read in the Quechua language. Not only would they be able to read the New Testament translated into Quechua, but there are also a variety of books that have been produced on subjects such as agriculture, sanitation, healthcare, family living. Pictured with Steve Endsley is Freddie Quintanilla, the Executive Director of ATEK, which has its office in Cusco, Peru.
In addition to learning about the work of Wycliffe Bible Translators, SIL, and ATEK, the group had the opportunity to visit the famous ancient city of Machu Pichu, one of the most significant archeological sites in the world.

Four-car crash on I-95 claims life of Stonington man
Waterford - A 72-year-old Stonington man was killed Friday in a head-on crash while having a diabetic emergency and traveling the wrong way on Interstate 95 in Waterford, state police said.
Shortly after 6 p.m. Friday, state police said Manuel Souza, of 315 Elm St., Stonington, was traveling north on the southbound side of I-95. Police said three southbound vehicles encountered Souza's vehicle in the area of exit 81.
Police said a Volvo driven by Adam Nowakowski, 33, of Stonington, sideswiped Souza's vehicle and subsequently crashed into the guardrails on the left shoulder.
A Honda Accord driven by Tsultrim Dorjee, 45, of Old Saybrook, struck Souza's Nissan head-on. Another vehicle, driven by Tammy A. Epstein, 35, of North Stonington, collided with the two crashed vehicles.
All four drivers, along with a 13-year-old passenger in Epstein's vehicle, were taken by Waterford ambulances to Lawrence & Memorial Hospital. Souza was pronounced dead at the hospital.
Police said Souza was believed to have been having a diabetic emergency at the time of the crash.
The other three drivers were treated and released.

On the Hill video ski report: 5" new powder at Vail
December 24, 2012
Brought to you by and the .Vail official report: 5″ new snowVail Daily field report: Felt like 6-8 inches in spotsWeather: Snowing, cold and cloudyLiftline status: Nothing at Chair 6, One and the Lionshead lifts looked pretty crowded though.Run of the Day: Blue OxBreakdown: While Vail only reported 5″ in the last 24 hours, Sunday is a full-on powder day, complete with face shots on the open runs. The wind may have played games with this storm, leaving some patches feeling like a foot, with mere inches in others. You'll be scraping bottom out there on the hard turns, but on the gliders you can enjoy that floating sensation that only a powder day can bring.Snowcast: Perhaps an inch of two in the coming days may fall in the coming days, but forecasters are most looking forward to Wednesday-Friday, which could bring more significant snowfall totals.
