Given any two points on a hyperbolic paraboloid ($xy = z$ or $z = (x^2 - y^2)/2$) how does one find the geodesic between them?
I know that since the hyperbolic paraboloid is doubly ruled, some of the geodesics are lines. However, I have very little idea of how to find the geodesics between arbitrary points.
If an exact answer cannot be given, then I would be interested in a technique of approximating the geodesics.
Finally, I'd like to add that this is outside my area of expertise (I'm an algebraist!) so you'll have to explain it to me.

Rugged PDAs almost invariably offer more protection than even the most rugged laptop or UMPC. The PS535F is no exception, with an impressive 1.52m drop test figure.
The IP54 waterproofing is disappointing, however: while it allows for a serious dousing, it's nothing in comparison to the IP67 offered by many rugged PDAs. Ergonomically, we liked the PS535F – Getac reckons it's the world's smallest rugged PDA.
A small package doesn't mean a low specification, though. The PS535D has all you'd expect of a PDA (Windows Mobile 6.1, 533MHz Samsung 2450 processor, 128MB RAM, 1GB flash memory, SD slot, 3.5in VGA screen, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth) and a whole lot more.
Specifically, it has a 3 megapixel camera, an electronic compass and altimeter and a built-in GPS receiver for full navigational capability.
It costs more than a run-of-the-mill PDA, but given its high level of ruggedisation and decent specification level, it's really not a bad buy at all.

This example of a mid 19th century Victorian pendant hails from a tradition echoing those grand 18th century motifs of ribbons, bows and teardrops. The impact of a Baroque style is apparent. This superb pendant is characterized by symmetrical and lively curved forms.
Cast and yet mostly hand-crafted from silver into a most exuberant configuration, the foliate and Baroque design features a dazzling array of clear white pastes. Please note the large cushion shaped central pastes; shaped pastes all but disappeared after around this time being replaced by round simply faceted pastes only. The three articulated elements encourage a lovely fluidity of movement and display a rich ornamentation.
Note: From a private New York collection.
Need a chain? Just ask us about our selection in various lengths! Prices start at $140 for 14k.

What is Adobe Anywhere?
- Adobe Anywhere is a breakthrough workflow platform that empowers teams using Adobe Premiere Pro and Prelude to collaborate with centralized media and assets across standard networks. Adobe Anywhere complements Adobe Creative Cloud to enable deep collaboration features for production workflows. It brings a focused collaboration feature set to enterprise customers without remote editors.
- Anywhere uses centralized storage and computing resources within your facility to create a secure, efficient workflow customized to your needs. It allows a great amount of flexibility for setup within a local area network.
- Teams using Anywhere need specific versions of Adobe video software, such as Premiere Pro CC. These video applications, along with other leading Adobe creative tools, are available through a membership in Adobe Creative Cloud for enterprise.
What are the benefits of Anywhere?
Teams using Anywhere benefit from the power of collaboration in many ways:
- Time savings — Avoid spending time searching for files, projects, or media. Quickly create a news story, commercial, or promo and distribute it to global teams faster than current production workflows.
- No learning curve — Adobe Anywhere integrates directly into the supported Creative Cloud applications, so there is virtually no learning curve. Video and broadcast professionals can begin working collaboratively with shared assets in a matter of minutes.
- Creative freedom — Allow workflows in which users have the time and ability to create multiple versions of a project, as well as collaborate with one another on shared work in progress.
What software does Anywhere require?
- Anywhere integrates directly with specific versions of Premiere Pro CC and Prelude CC (Windows and OS X).
Will I still be able to use my Adobe products on my local computer without Anywhere?
- Yes. Premiere Pro CC and Prelude CC can be used in standalone mode or in a collaborative environment with Anywhere. In standalone mode, you use project files stored on your local computer as you would with previous versions of the applications. For collaborative workflows, you log in to Anywhere and then you can use shared assets and work with others on your production team who also are using Anywhere.
What video formats will I be able to use with Anywhere?
- Anywhere natively supports any format that is supported by Premiere Pro CC. For details, visit www.adobe.com/products/premiere/extend.html#Supportedvideoformats.
Does Anywhere support third-party plug-ins?
- Yes, Anywhere includes support for third-party effects. You should check with your plug-in manufacturer about licensing. While Adobe does not have a publicly available list of supported plug-ins, all plug-ins supported by Premiere Pro should work. You can find a list at helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/plug-ins.html.
Does Anywhere require a media asset management system (MAM)?
- Client workstations access the media storage directly, so an MAM is not required. All importing, rendering, and exporting is done by the end user within the Creative Cloud client application. However, MAM functionality is supported via a client SDK, and many MAM vendors have completed integration with Premiere Pro. A list appears at helpx.adobe.com/anywhere/plug-ins/plug-ins.html.
Will team members need to learn new applications to use Anywhere?
- No. Anywhere integrates directly with Premiere Pro CC and Prelude CC, so there is virtually no learning curve. Video and broadcast professionals can begin working collaboratively with remote assets in a matter of minutes.
How is Anywhere related to Creative Cloud?
- Anywhere is a separate offering from Creative Cloud. It is hosted on-premises for complete control and security.
Enterprise organizations using Anywhere will need to have the latest versions of Adobe video software, such as Premiere Pro CC. These video applications, along with other leading Adobe creative tools, are available as part of an Adobe Creative Cloud for enterprise membership.
Which version of Anywhere is available now?
- Anywhere version 3.0 is now available. A new version will be available later this summer. For more information, contact your Adobe account representative.
How do I purchase Anywhere?
- Anywhere and Creative Cloud for enterprise are available exclusively via an Enterprise Term License Agreement (ETLA), Adobe's customizable volume licensing program. Working with your Adobe account executive, a three-year agreement can be crafted to cover Creative Cloud for enterprise and Anywhere. The ETLA can also include additional Adobe products such as Adobe Acrobat, Digital Publishing Suite, Adobe Sign, Adobe Stock, and more in a single agreement. For more information, please visit www.adobe.com/go/broadcast.
- Please keep in mind that at this time, Anywhere is an enterprise-only solution that is not appropriate for small workgroups.
How do I learn more about Adobe Anywhere?
- Contact your Adobe account representative, or find online resources, customer stories, and more on the Adobe Anywhere main page. You can also request a consultation for your organization.

Fellow Club member who's an electronics wizz-kid already has recordable chips on order to support Guy's FIzz-Bang upgrade, some come with proximity sensors though we don't know how sensitive the sensor is.
Could even record my own Grandfather (Clock) for the shop.

[EDITED on 3/09 to add: This recipe unfairly taunts kosher readers, I suppose - I posted this when I was still keeping "ingredient kosher" (i.e. not caring about kosher certification as long as there was no unkosher meat, shellfish, or meat-milk mixtures). Now that I keep a strictly kosher kitchen it's near impossible to make this dish. Only one company that I know of makes kosher-certified rice wrappers, which is Sushi Metsuyan. These are hard to find on the retail market. One alternative is using large lettuce leaves to wrap these spring rolls in, since rice vermicelli are widely available.]
Vietnamese fresh spring rolls with a spicy peanut dipping sauce are up there on my Top 10 Foods list. But most are made with shrimp, which is not kosher, or tofu, which doesn't sit right with my sensitive tummy. So I set about creating a soy-free, gluten-free spring roll without shellfish. I used yesterday's leftover salmon, which happened to be baked with cilantro butter, but you can feel free to use plain salmon or canned salmon. You may notice in the photos that the noodles I used inside the rolls are wider than the rice vermicelli the recipe calls for - Hey, even a food blogger can't always have their pantry fully stocked!
Rushed for time, I mixed a little Sriracha-style hot chili sauce with peanut butter and soy sauce. You can find more authentic Vietnamese dipping sauce recipes online.
5 rice paper wrappers (banh trang) - 8-inch size
1 cup of fresh cilantro or basil sprigs, loosely packed
1 cup of fresh mint leaves, loosely packed
4 large leaves of crisp green lettuce, sliced (remove ribs)
1 large carrot, shredded
2 ounces rice vermicelli noodles
2 ounces cooked or canned salmon, flaked gently into small pieces
Bring a quart of water to boil in a saucepan. Turn off heat and submerge noodles in water. Soak for 3-5 minutes or until tender. Rinse with cold water in colander, and drain.
Fill a pie pan or pot that is wider than 8" in diameter with hot water. Carefully remove one rice paper wrapper from the package and submerge it in this water. Let it soak until it's soft. For easier handling, allow parts of the sheet to remain a little bit stiff (some of the hatch marks that are in the design of most rice papers can still be visible). Remove from water very carefully.
Place the rice paper wrapper on a smooth, dry surface. Surface should be ceramic, plastic or glass - Rice paper wrappers can stick to wooden surfaces. Take 1/5 of noodles and arrange lengthwise 1 inch from the bottom of wrapper. Leave 1-2 inches of the wrapper uncovered on the sides, as well.
Add mint, cilantro or basil, lettuce, and 1/5 of the flaked salmon as separate layers on top of the vermicelli. Pull the bottom edge of the wrapper up to cover the filling. Now fold both sides of the wrapper up to cover the edges. Continue rolling, tucking the filling in towards you with your fingers and roll tightly so that the roll remains firm (but not so tightly that you rip the rice paper!)
Makes 5 rolls, which serves 2 to 5 people, depending on how hungry you are!

Standing up for change requires passion and transformational leadership. One aspect of leadership is the delicacy of negotiating for multiple voices to be represented, toward social justice. Where does this type of leadership come from, and how can we encourage it? How do we teach others to be activists? Where are these lessons in our teaching training? Stand(ing) Up, for a Change explores these questions. The contributors to this book are risk takers, and it is through their stories that concepts of standing up are shared, including how teachers challenged high stakes testing, unyielding standards, racism, privatization, uncritical curricula, and other institutional and ideological constraints. The use of art as a tool to overcome injustice and arts-based activism to stand up for the rights of marginalized students and teachers are also explored. Narratives are shared about crossing disciplinary and geographical borders, to engage various community members—including children and youth from rural, suburban, and urban areas in the U.S. and abroad. The stories also address the difficulty of standing up for change and the limits of being critical, through self-reflecting on fantasies, experiences, and disappointments of enacting social change.
216 pgs. (2013) ISBN 978-1-890160-56-2
"Standing up for change takes courage and vision. However, with the advent of this text it does not have to be a lonely endeavor."
"Every K-12 art teacher and university professor of art education who wishes to become aware of the current state of art education should read this book."

Rima Fakih, the first Arab-American to be crowned Miss USA, has been sentenced to probation and community service in a Michigan drunken driving case.
The 26-year-old former beauty queen avoided the possibility of jail time during Wednesday's hearing in Highland Park, an enclave of Detroit. Judge William McConico put her on six months' probation, ordered 20 hours of community service and said she must pay $600 in fines and costs.
Fakih also must attend an alcohol safety class. She pleaded no contest last month to driving while visibly impaired.
U.S. & World
She has said she wasn't drinking on the night of her arrest in December, but two police breath tests put Fakih's blood alcohol content at more than twice the legal limit.
The former Miss Michigan was crowned Miss USA in 2010.

You are currently browsing the monthly archive for April 2017.
Remember when News was presented in a business-like format and delivered to the public without the need for musical interludes, outrageous graphics and other unnecessary entertainment related nonsense?
You don't? Ok, then. So what do I mean?
I remember a time when a story broke and was simply reported. Everything regarding the story (or at least, everything they had at the time) was presented to the masses by professional and dedicated news broadcasters. If they had photos, they included them. If it was an incomplete story or part of an ongoing situation, that was reported as well.
After a story was fully covered, the Anchor moved onto the next story and the pattern continued. This procedure was followed until all stories were covered.
In between News stories—real news mind you! Not stories about celebrity marriages or divorces—the weather was covered. . . . in its entirety.
It was not partially dispensed in bite sized pieces throughout the broadcast. Here's the weather for tomorrow was a simple statement, not the beginning of a mystery movie.
Back then, we didn't sit on the edge of our seats awaiting the outcome of the forecast. We tuned in, got the information and decided what to wear as a result of it.
We didn't have to wait until the very end of the show to find out what we needed to do for the next day. We didn't have to view endless satellite and radar graphics which mean little to nothing to us anyway.
We didn't get partial News stories, then partial weather, inundated by some 8 to 10 commercial messages in a continuous loop.
Nowadays, you can't get up or leave the TV for any reason—not even a bathroom break—else you miss the exciting conclusion of what used to be a simple daily update!
So, you hold out. After all, you've invested so much of your time and energy already. You've endured countless stories about celebrity weddings, panda babies, cat videos (which I don't have a problem with online) and sales promotions pretending to be life tips. You've already waded through ridiculous muck masquerading as News. You've even reviewed satellite and radar graphics regarding the rotation of the earth relative to the sun.
I advise you to do the best you can to stay. If you don't, you'll have to watch it all over again, the next hour, with two different Anchors who are fully prepared to take you into the twilight zone.
Can anybody hear me?

More from the CDS's SITREP No. 3:On 1 Feb 06, CANSOFCOM HQ will stand-up and JTF 2 and the JNBCD Coy will be transferred from DCDS to CANSOFCOM. On the same date, 427 Sqn in Petawawa will be designated 427 Special Operations Aviation (SOA) Sqn, OPCOM to CANSOFCOM. In addition, the interim capability of the Canadian Special Operations Regiment will be established in Petawawa in early 06 and the screening and initial training of its first company group will be completed by Aug 06, when the unit strength will reach approximately 250 personnel at IOC. While CLS will give this unit a 'kick-start' by providing a formed company group for the training, this joint special operations unit will be recruited from across the regular and reserve components of the CF. I consider it essential that we quickly establish these new capabilities to learn the lessons and gain the insights that will shape the future expansion of these CF assets;
Kev TYou haven't read all 17 pages of this thread, have you?
Most of it. Just that, like you said, it's 17 pages - kinda long - figured I could just get a simple answer.
You did, it was "Please read the thread."
Incidentally, what colour hat are you wearing right now?
For the guy who mentioned SOG - SOG is CANSOFCOM - the reason for the change was, and I'm being totally serious, the french translation for SOG - which is GOS - which is french for testicles.This came straight from CO of CANSOFCOM during a brief on Wednesday.
I've been looking for testimonials about CANSOFCOM, but I can't seem to find anything.
I thought about starting a new thread, but upon finding this topic I thought I'd ask my question here:I was hoping someone could tell me what it's like working for CANSOFCOM. More specifically as Support staff. What do they do in Garrison and can they go on deployment?However, it would be cool to know more about the Assaulters, but I don't expect any answers about the Assaulter trade because of the secrecy, but it's worth a shot anyway.I've been looking for testimonials about CANSOFCOM, but I can't seem to find anything. I noticed that the Army.ca staff are current/former Canadian soldiers: Did you guys have an opportunity to work there or did you know anyone who has?Thanks
Some here,CANSOFCOMhttp://army.ca/forums/index.php?board=73.0
There is a quote from Lao Tzu that you should know (or learn):"Those who know don't talk. Those who talk don't know."
Fact is, you're not even in yet, and no one who works there is going to go out of their way to put reveal what day-to-day life is in any of the CANSOFCOM units other than what is already available.Focus on getting your foot in the door, and then worry about where to go from there. Once you're in, if you're still interested in CANSOFCOM, hit up the recruiting cell or go to one of the frequent recruiting drives.
I'm not considering a career with CANSOFCOM, I'm just looking for info about it, that's all.
In that case, google search is about all you'll get.
If you Googled it you would have found your answer in seconds. http://www.forces.gc.ca/en/jobs-caf-unique/operations-special-forces-locate.page

Case in point - my daughter had a couple of friends coming over for a quick dinner before we headed out to a movie. I decided to make chili since I had the ingredients on hand and it is a quick, easy meal I could throw together in a coma. Once I got going on that, though, I realized that chili needs cornbread to go with it. No problem. I make chili and cornbread together all the time. Then I realized that we couldn't have friends over for dinner and not have dessert! I figured I'd make my easy, trusty brownie recipe. No problem, right? Well, a small problem. When I'm rushed for time, and juggling three recipes, I don't always read as carefully as I should. I added twice the amount of melted chocolate to the batter as I should.
So how was the meal? The chili was good, the cornbread was underbaked, so it was kind of cornbread pudding, but tasty cornbread pudding. And the brownies? Well, they just weren't right. A little dry. The texture and taste were off and I was saddened to have spend all that time and chocolate making a pan of brownies that no one wanted to eat.
After staring at that pathetic pan of wrong brownies for two days, fearing I'd have to chuck the whole thing in the garbage just to get it off my counter, I had a brilliant idea. Brownies and ice cream together are delicious. How about brownies in ice cream? The ice cream hid the dryness problem of the brownies and the brownies provided a delicious textural counterpoint for the ice cream. Fabulous!
Chocolate Brownie Ice Cream
- adapted from The Perfect Scoop by David Lebovitz
1-1/2 cups (375 ml) heavy cream
1-1/2 cups (375 ml) whole milk
3/4 cup (150 g) sugar
Big pinch of kosher salt
4 large egg yolks
2 tsp Cognac
Brownies with walnuts (about 1/2 of a 9 x 9-inch pan)
Combine the milk chocolate and cream in a large, heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water. Stir until the chocolate is melted, then remove the bowl from the saucepan. Set it aside with a mesh strainer over the top.
In a medium saucepan warm the milk, sugar, and salt. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks. Slowly pour the warm milk mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly. Scrape the warmed egg yolks back into the saucepan.
Stir the mixture constantly over medium heat with a heatproof spatula, scraping the bottom as you stir, until the mixture thickens and coats the spatula. Pour the custard through the strainer into the milk chocolate mixture, add the Cognac, and mix together. Stir until cool over an ice bath.
Chill the mixture in the refrigerator 4 hours or overnight. Freeze it in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. During the last few minutes of churning, crumble in the brownies.

Priscilla Baudoin, MFT
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
In 92220 - Nearby to Joshua Tree.
Depression can affect every aspect of one's life and lead to a downward spiral. I am available to explore and exam what has contributed to this loss of interest in daily activities and what steps can be taken to move forward. I am available to help you find the support you need to feel a purpose for your life. Through therapy you will begin to see a light at the end of the tunnel.
Depression Counselor
Christi Lindsay, PsyD
Licensed Clinical Psychologist
It can often seem like society expects us to be happy and positive at all times, that any admission of sadness or a loss of motivation, energy, or engagement with life is a personal failure. But Depression isn't a personal failure, and it is also more than just "feeling sad". If you find yourself down in the hole of disconnection, surrounded by a fog that is interfering with your life and relationships, you need a hand to help you climb out. A trained therapist understands the mechanics of depression and can help you understand it and find strategies to make your way up and out of it, and back into the light. Please contact me so we can begin to work on this process together.
Depression Counselor
Edward L. De La Loza, EdD, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Clients usually experience a progressive decline in mood, which can impact their emotions, the quality of their sleep, relationships (they may even begin to withdraw from others), and have persistent negative thoughts. Many clients prefer to explore viable holistic and integrative strategies before trying medication. In our collaboration, we will design a plan to explore possible options, strategies to strengthen effective coping mechanisms, and identify a plan to enhance the opportunity for recovery.
Depression Counselor
John Kane, AMFT, APCC
Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
I use several methods for helping you overcome depression. I support you in maintaining safety. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I help you to identify unhelpful thoughts and learn how to restructure your thoughts. I help you identify root causes of your depression and find ways to reduce their impact by replacing them with activities and relationships that support you in increased positive mood and personal responsibility. Depression can be comorbid with other issues you may be struggling with and I take a holistic approach to help you address what is needed in order to become a more fulfilled, and satisfied individual.
Depression Counselor
Barbara Kreedman, Ph.D, LCSW
Licensed Psychotherapist

Depression often times is a symptom of stuffing ones emotions for years and finally the emotions shutdown. Sometimes depression is a reaction to a current loss. Identifying why the depression exists and what the individual is "truely" reacting to is key to undoing the patterns of depression. Often times, an individual has never focused on their internal feelings to allow themselves to feel what they feel. Therapy becomes an avenue to identify and resolve issues which to date have been buried and contribute to having depression in the first place. If depression is the result of a current trauma, addressing the issues can again reduce the degree of depression. Medication can be helpful.
Depression Counselor
Clint Newell, MA, LPCC
Licensed Therapist
In 92260 - Nearby to Joshua Tree.
Do you feel like life is harder than it should be? Sometimes depression tries to steal our joy, our productivity and our relationships. I use proven techniques to help you take back what depression has taken from you. Call to get help today. Depression is not a feeling or a character flaw. Depression is a chronic condition that can be observed in the brain. Depression affects all aspects of a person's life, but the most important thing to know about depression is that it is treatable.
Depression Counselor
Larry Goodman, MA, MFT
Marriage Family Therapist (MFT)
In 92270 - Nearby to Joshua Tree.
Many people struggle with depression, men and women as well as children and adolescents. Depression needs to be assessed for severity and treated appropriately. The standard of care may include medication and talk therapy involving Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which can be very effective for most clients. Depression often masks frustration and anger or severe negative thoughts which can be explored in treatment. Most people benefit from talk therapy and find relief. Other family members may also be included in the treatment if that is appropriate.

For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem.

NEW YORK, Dec. 8 (UPI) -- Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel made college football history Saturday when he was named the first freshman to ever win the award.
The pick was announced at a gala dinner in New York, during which Manziel got the nod over Kansas State quarterback Collin Klein and Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o.
Manziel earned the media nickname "Johnny Football" as he set an SEC record for total offense by amassing 3,419 passing yards and rushing for 1,181 more while accounting for 43 touchdowns -- 24 through the air.
The signal-caller's efforts helped produce Texas A&M's 10-2 record and a trip to the Cotton Bowl.
The highlight of Manziel's season came when he paced the Aggies to a Nov. 10 win over then-No. 1 Alabama.
Te'o -- a keystone of the undefeated Irish team that will play for the national championship in January -- would have been the first pure defensive player to receive the trophy in its 78-year history.
Klein, meanwhile, led Kansas State to an 11-1 record and completed 15 touchdown passes.

If you are looking for a great cruising boat this is it. A must see!!!!
"Mañana" is a Cape Dory Intrepid 40 center cockpit sloop, well known and a highly respected offshore cruiser designed by Chuck Paine. She was custom built to very high standards by Intrepid Yachts, Inc. in Massachusetts for the original owners in 1983.
This vessel was designed as a fast sailing, well built yacht to provide maximum interior accommodations for her length. She was built as a long distance, live aboard cruiser and is equipped with many modern conveniences for easy sailing. She has had continual maintenance and upgrading by her current owners.
With a cut away forefoot keel, sloop rig, pedestal steering with auto pilot, and center cockpit she has proven to be a very comfortable and seaworthy vessel. The cockpit is large enough to seat six people comfortably. It offers high backs and seats long enough for a tall man to lie on and stretch out. It stays dry in heavy seas as it can be completed enclosed with side curtains for the dodger and bimini.
The richly finished warm teak interior has 6 ft 4 inch headroom throughout. The main salon is roomy with wide settees, large dining area, full sized forward facing nav station, and sea-going galley. There is a walk thru to the aft cabin where the cushions are designed to use regular size bed sheets and can sleep a tall man with ease. There is an ample size forward V-berth and 2 heads with showers. She has a very practical comfortable interior arrangement.
This is truly an ocean going vessel that is ready to take you on your adventures and fulfill your dreams. "Mañana" is an exceptional choice for the serious live aboard cruiser who wishes to find an exceptionally high quality yacht for a fair value.

When I read an email sent to an Apache Software Foundation mailing list suggesting an open source project for OpenSocial, I wasn't surprised to see it come from Brian McCallister, a prolific open source developer that I met years ago in a former life.
Brian McCallister now works at Ning, the social network outsourcer, and sat down to talk to me about topics revolving around Ning, OpenSocial, and Apache Shindig.
What will you learn from this chat?
- What Ning is all about
- Why Ning and Brian think about OpenSocial, and why developers should be interested
- The parts and pieces of OpenSocial from the standpoint of a developer, and a third party container
- How Brian thinks that we will get more than just "Write one, learn everywhere"
- What Apache Shindig is all about
- How Shindig allows you to do simple local development, which changes the game with respect to your development lifecycle

BEIJING, China - The Yongqing County in Langfang City of China's Hebei Province was hit by a magnitude 4.3 earthquake on Monday.
The China Earthquake Networks Center said that the quake struck at 6:31 p.m., just south of Beijing.
So far, there were no immediate reports of casualties or damage.
Some people in Beijing said that they felt slight shakes when the quake hit.
One of the people who felt the quake, identified as Liang told reporters, "Everything is fine in the hotel. The building and the furniture were undamaged. There was no visible panic among the customers."
Meanwhile, people said that tremors were felt in Beijing too.
Another person who felt the quake was quoted as saying, "After I felt some slight shakes, I immediately ran out of the building."
According to experts, there is very little likelihood of bigger quakes in the region and authorities warned the public to not panic.
Liu Guiping, deputy director of China Earthquake Networks Center said, "The moderate quake was very likely an isolated quake with smaller aftershocks."
Authorities said that a total of 24 aftershocks had been recorded in the region, with the biggest one measuring 1.8 in magnitude.
However, Guiping said that the earthquake was rather deep and therefore unlikely to cause severe damage.
He added that local authorities in Langfang have sent teams to investigate the quake-related damage.

IRVINE, CA -- Nearly three months after letting go about 100 employees, Star Trac recently underwent another round of layoffs.
Star Trac President Mike Leveque confirmed that the Irvine, CA-based company let go eight to 10 members of its U.S. sales division two weeks ago. Leveque says this was part of Star Trac's domestic sales strategy execution under the direction of Larry Domingo, vice president of global sales.
"The strategy is focused on leveraging direct and distributor channels to ensure the most efficient and complete national coverage," Leveque said in an e-mail to Club Industry. "The new strategy requires fewer direct sales staff and, consequently, some positions held by tenured sales professionals were eliminated. We did not take these decisions lightly and wish the former members of our team the best in their future endeavors. Going forward, we are committed to continue to look for opportunities to become a more efficient company. We owe this to our customers in order to keep cost down and service levels high."
As part of Star Trac's plan moving forward, the company's core competencies, Leveque says, will be centered on customer-focused, value-added activities. Those activities are to design and develop high-quality, differentiated products, to improve class distribution and to offer a world-class customer experience, he says.
"As we re-establish Star Trac as a leader in the global commercial fitness equipment industry, we will be directing our efforts in these areas," Leveque says.
In June, Star Trac laid off 100 employees, half were office staff and managers and the other half were from the company's strength factory. At the time of the layoffs, Randy Bergstedt, then the company's vice president of marketing, said the company did not plan to do any more staff reductions, particularly at the senior staff level of the company. Bergstedt has since moved on to become the executive vice president at efi Sports Medicine, San Diego.
In July, Michael Bruno, owner of Land America Health and Fitness Co., purchased Star Trac. Land America has a manufacturing plant in Xiamen, China, which will be an asset for Star Trac, Leveque says.
"One of the benefits of having an owner who has an 800,000-square-foot Chinese manufacturing plant is to leverage this resource to simplify and gain efficiency in our supply chain," Leveque says. "We will continue to explore ways to use this as a competitive advantage."
Leveque took over as president of Star Trac for Steve Nero, who resigned in May. Ironically, Nero has become a consultant for Bruno.
The bond between Nero and Bruno grew when Star Trac established its manufacturing relationship with Land America's plant, Bruno says. Once Nero left the company, he suggested to Bruno that he explore the possibility of buying Star Trac.
"From that point forward, I relied on information from Robert W. Baird and Co., Star Trac's investment bank, and Star Trac's management to direct my acquisition efforts, which ultimately proved successful," Bruno said in an e-mail to Club Industry.
Bruno says Nero has a short-term consulting agreement with one of Bruno's companies, Primus Medical, Boardman, OH, to assist in the development of its medical products. (Boardman is just south of Bruno's native Youngstown, OH.) A role at Star Trac is not in Nero's future, Bruno says.
"[Nero] has no role, nor is it anticipated that he will ever participate, in the current or future management of Star Trac," Bruno says.
Mark Mastrov, co-founder of New Evolution Ventures (NEV), Lafayette, CA, says he met with Bruno and his Star Trac team two weeks ago. Mastrov's ties to Star Trac go back to 1990 during his days at 24 Hour Fitness, which purchased its first treadmills from Star Trac in 1991. NEV operates Crunch and UFC Gym.
"We are excited with Michael's vision and passion for the industry," Mastrov says. "We talked about everything from current parts issues to their ability on delivering new product. I am now very confident that they will perform and do what they say they are going to do and come out of this difficult time a much stronger and better company."

Long-term increases in rental housing prices and utility costs combined with stagnant or falling incomes are creating escalating affordability pressures for U.S. renters. "Rental markets are now tightening, with vacancy rates falling and rents climbing," finds a new report by the Joint Center for Housing Studies of Harvard University. "With little new supply of multi-family units in the pipeline, rents could rise sharply as demand increases."
Maintaining an adequate supply of affordable rental housing is important because nearly all Americans rent at some point in their lives. While renters reflect the diversity of the nation, they are more likely to be young, single, and low-income, which makes them particularly sensitive to increases in housing costs, according to the MacArthur-supported report.
"Over the course of the last decade, rental housing affordability problems went through the roof, with more renters spending half or more of their income on their housing costs, and these affordability problems are marching up the income scale," said Eric Belsky, the Center's Managing Director and an author of the report.
Between 2010 and 2020, the number of renter households could increase by 360,000–460,000. Given the long lead time required to replace depleted affordable rental housing, such a sharp increase in demand – driven by demographic trends, an economic upturn, or new directions in homeownership policies – could quickly reduce vacancy rates and put further upward pressure on rents.
While new rental units are needed to meet this uptick in demand, preserving current rental stock remains integral to meeting the overall rental housing needs, particularly for low- and moderate-income households.

Three second half goals gave a confident-looking Japan a 3-1 victory over Costa Rica in a friendly ahead of the World Cup at the Raymond James stadium in Tampa, Florida on Monday. Alberto Zaccheroni's team played a smart and positive passing style from the outset and will take great encouragement from their display.
From the outset Japan dominated and they should have made more of their opportunities in the opening 45 minutes. Yoshito Okubo had an effort well saved by Costa Rica keeper Keylor Navas and Keisuke Honda should have done better inside the area but over-elaborated as he tried to round Navas.
Costa Rica then grabbed the lead against the run of play with Junior Diaz bursting down the left flank to find Bryan Ruiz at the back post and the striker made no mistake from close range.
Japan continued to enjoy the better of the game after the break and they deservedly drew level on the hour when Honda slipped the ball into the path of Yasuhito Endo whose first time strike gave Navas no chance.
Manchester United midfielder Shinji Kagawa then offered a reminder of his quality with a penetrating run at the heart of the Costa Rica defence and after a smart one-two, his cool finish made it 2-1.
A good performance from Japan, and worrying night for Costa Rica, was completed in injury time when the Ticos' defence failed to clear a Kagawa cross and Yoichiro Kakitani pounced on the loose ball and slid it into the bottom corner.
The result and performance does not bode well for a Costa Rica team that faces tough opposition against Uruguay, England and Italy in Group D. Japan, who face Ivory Coast, Greece and Colombia in Group C in Brazil will play another pre-World Cup friendly against Zambia in Tampa on Friday.

1971 Dodge Challenger Plum Crazy Purple 528 HEMI 650HP Looks Incredible
1971 Dodge Challenger Plum Crazy 528 HEMIbbin十大平台网 is today's Muscle Cars World car choice. We're all familiar with the term 'resto-mod' and how it gets thrown around to describe cars which 1) haven't been restored that well and 2) haven't been modded that much at all.
But, simply put, the true theme of the 'resto-mod' movement is: The best of everything. And if there was ever a textbook example of a true-to-form 'resto-mod', this 1971 Dodge Challenger has to be it.bbin十大平台网 Showcasing the hard work of a very skilled builder who understands how to enhance the best attributes of a slick, frame-off restoration, this badass Mopar features a slew of handpicked, top-shelf parts which create a classic that can be shown and driven with the best muscle cars on the road.
Take one glance at this Challengers wet-look Plum Crazy Purple exterior and it's obvious that the cars top-notch restoration was both thorough and expensive. Take two or three minutes to look down the sides of this rock solid Dodge and you'll find exact angles and flawless reflections which set it apart from all but it's most extensively restored peers.
Take an hour to visually examination this highly detailed Mopar and you'll notice that the accent line which runs from nose to tail is expertly paralleled and caps straight quarters that have been painstakingly finished to provide a near flawless canvas for the cars slick, high quality basecoat/clearcoat paint.
Naturally, a pristine Dodge like this can back up as much Mopar attitude as its owner cares to provide; and this Challenger looks excellent decked out in traditional Trans Am hardware that includes fresh black side stripes, an aggressive flat black hood and a smooth, flat black duck tail spoiler. Today this Challenger is a highly appealing, purpose built muscle car that conveys a sense of power and precision. Read more interesting details!
bbin十大平台网Wearing lines from same designer who was made famous by the awesome 1966 Dodge Charger, this purple and black Challenger makes a bold styling statement from virtually every angle. Up front, a tough looking split grille hangs a showroom fresh "Dodge" emblem inside of four showroom fresh headlights and well maintained stainless trim. Below that grille, a body width chrome bumper hangs above clear parking lights and a Trans Am style chin spoiler; and above that grille, new hood pins sit in front of bright "Hemi" hood emblems.
bbin十大平台网Behind the hood, like-new glass is bordered by excellent looking stainless trim which combines with new chrome drip rails and excellent looking chrome sport mirrors to frame a fresh black vinyl top. And at the sides of the car, prominent fender lines are complemented by new stainless wheel well trim, flush satin finish door handles and a pristine chrome fuel cap. Just behind the front tires high mounted "Challenger" scripts serve to intimidate would-be stoplight competition, and just in front of the rear tires, body-matched louvers add to the cars aggressive Trans Am looks.
At the back of the car, a stainless trimmed rear valence holds showroom fresh tail lights and a third "Challenger" script inside a black tail light panel. And a second chrome bumper hangs built in bumper guards above a sculpted roll pan which incorporates awesome quad outlet stainless steel exhaust tips.
Big blocks were still on the menu in 1971, but they were nothing like the badass mill under this Challengers flat black hood. Fitting snug and looking sharp in this cars Plum Crazy Purple engine bay is a dyno tuned 528 cubic inch Indy Cylinder Heads Street Legend Hemi that produces a 10.25 to 1 compression ratio and 650 horsepowerbbin十大平台网 straight out of the box.
The fully worked 528 Street Legend package comes with an 850cfm Mighty Demon carburetor, an MSD Pro-Billet distributor, MSD Super Conductor wires, Indy 426 cast iron heads, an Indy 426 intake, an MP 4340 crank, Eagle H-beam rods, Wiseco pistons, a Comp Cams hydraulic cam, Comp Cams hydraulic lifters and a Milodon oil pan. But wait, there's more; at the top of the purple engine, a K&N air filter sits above braided fuel lines for the Demon carburetor and pre-requisite Indy valve covers.
bbin十大平台网At the sides of the engine, custom fabricated and ceramic coated long tube headers hide under a polished SSBC master cylinder and hoses for the cars Vintage Air climate control system. And at the front of the engine a March serpentine system spins billet pulleys and a chrome alternator below fresh hoses and a new belt. Turn the switch and an Optima gel cell battery sparks an MSD Blaster 2 coil and MSD 6AL ignition to spring the engine to life; and a Be Cool aluminum radiator utilizes two Spal electric fans to keep everything cool and in check. Although much of it is hidden under the massive Indy Hemi, this cars entire engine bay is exceptionally well done. You can easily see that the paint on the inner fenders is as good as the finish on a lot of cars' bodies and virtually every accessory has been detailed in aftermarket billet and stainless to add a nice, finished look.
bbin十大平台网The chassis under this Challenger is what we like to call properly restored, with an even coat of satin black covering clean, solid floors, and absolutely no over-restored painted components. Behind the engine a modern Tremec TKO500 5-speed transmission sends power to a narrowed Moser 8.74 rear end that's been detailed in fresh coat of gloss black paint. At the sides of that transmission, a large diameter true dual exhaust system sends spent gases through an H-pipe to Flowmaster dual chamber mufflers which give the big Hemi a super aggressive bark to match its lethal bite.
At the front of the car, an upgraded torsion bar suspension includes adjustable upper control arms and adjustable strut rods, and at the corners of the car, fresh QA1 shocks sit behind an SSBC four wheel disc brake system which includes slotted rotors and bright red calipers. Slow speed turns are a cinch thanks to power rack and pinion steering, handling is greatly enhanced by aftermarket sub frame connectors, and an aluminum fuel tank with an internal pump feeds the big engine an uninterrupted stream of fuel. All this great hardware rides on an excellent looking set of 17 inch polished aluminum Centerline wheels which wear sticky 235/45 front and 255/50 rear BF Goodrich G-force T/A radials.
bbin十大平台网Inside the car, you'll find a great looking black interior that, like the drivetrain and exterior, takes the best elements of a traditional muscle car and fuses them with awesome new technology.
The driver and passenger sit on custom leather bucket seats that look good and feel great; and a chrome TKO pistol grip shifter sits on a traditional Challenger console that's complete with a custom purple inlay. In front of the driver, a straight and simple black dash features an assortment of silver faced Autometer Pro Comp Ultra Lite gauges which, along with a traditional 3-spoke Challenger steering wheel, have been fully detailed in Plum Crazy Purple. Below those gauges, a modern Alpine CD player, which features both XM satellite radio and MP3 compatibility, sends tunes to custom kick panels and a custom package tray which hold an assortment of excellent sounding Audison speakers.
Below those Audison speakers, the car's trunk is filled with a completely custom sound system which includes two Rockford Fosgate amps, two giant Rockford Fosgate subwoofers and more body-matched custom panels.
Challengers don't get any nicer than this one, and regardless of whether you want to show it or drive it, this is a no-excuses car. Big block power, a modern 5-speed transmission and a tailored interior that is purpose-built for driving? Life just doesn't get any better than that.

Statewide, Republican voter registration in California is in decline. Thirty percent of voters are now listed as Republican as opposed to 32% in 2008. It was awfully suspicious, then, when GOP registrations in Riverside County jumped by 35,000 this year, seemingly giving them an advantage of 51,000 voters over Democrats. It turns out that thousands of Democrats have been re-registered as Republicans without their permission.
A Republican voter outreach program named 'The Golden State Voter Participation Project' stationed workers outside of stores and welfare offices to sign people up. Democratic activists are alleging fraud and have given the county registrar of voters 133 affidavits from Democrats, many of whom are Latino or African American, who state that they were wrongly re-registered as Republicans. Many were presented with documents that were misrepresented. One thought he was signing a petition to lower the price of gasoline, another that he was supporting the legalization of marijuana. Some were promised free cigarettes in exchange for signing.
How would such fraud help Republicans? First of all, inflating their numbers gives them a fundraising boost by making their chances of success look greater than they are. Secondly, Democratic get-out-the-vote efforts would be thwarted since the party wouldn't reach out to people listed as Republican to make sure they made it to the polls.
Candidate Richard Roth, who is running for state Senate against the Republican incumbent, is making the alleged fraud a campaign issue. After all, in an unfortunate development for the GOP, Roth is one of the victims whose registration was changed to Republican. He complains that the drive was manned by paid signature collectors who received $7 for every signature, and that his opponent voted against a measure that would ban 'bounty hunter' registrations.
According to California Watch, the bigger picture in the state shows that only one county currently remains a Republican-majority stronghold. Even a conservative, military town like San Diego is now evenly split between Democrats and Republicans. So one has to wonder, didn't it occur to anyone in the GOP that Dems might notice the strange surge in Riverside County?
I'd be delighted if you joined me on Facebook.

The Prosecco DOC was first awarded in 1969 and was restricted to wines produced in the Conegliano-Valdiobbadene region. Growers felt that the brand was under attack by "imitators" using just the grape variety and moved to isolate those competitors by changing both the rules and the venue of the game. Prosecco growers agitated for, and gained regulatory acceptance of: (i) extension of the Prosecco DOC to cover all of Friuli-Venezia-Giulia and approximately two-thirds of Veneto; (ii) promotion of the original Prosecco DOC to DOCG status; (iii) changing the name of the source grape from Prosecco to Glera; and (iv) restricting the use of the name Prosecco only to Glera sparkling wines produced within the delimited zones. The growers felt that these actions would serve to protect their territory, the brand, and the quality of Prosecco. The regulations authorizing these actions came into law in 2009.
The Grape(s)
Prosecco is primarily made from the Glera (formerly Prosecco; also known as Prosecco Bianco and Proseko Sciprina) grape variety, a native of northeast Italy which has been used to produce wines since Roman times. This late-ripening, thick-skinned variety has greenish-yellow berries which evolve to a yellow-gold color as the grapes ripen. The grapes are high in acid and have a white peach aromatic profile, qualities which render them eminently suitable for the production of sparkling wines.
Glera is primarily used in the production of fizzy and sparkling wines but there are a few examples of still Glera wines around. In addition to Glera, Prosecco wines can contain as much as 15% of other grape varieties. The most oft-used supplements are Verdiso, Branchetta, Perera, Glera Lunga, Pinot Bianco, Pinot Noir, Pinot Grigio, and Chardonnay.
The Production Areas
Prosecco DOC
Prosecco DOC wines are authorized for production in Friuli-Venezia-Giulia and Veneto (provinces of Treviso, Belluna, Padova, Venezia, and Vicenzia). Within the broader Prosecco DOC, there are two sub-zones: DOC Treviso Prosecco and Prosecco di Trieste. These sub-zones cover Prosecco made within these two provinces and wines made therein can so indicate on their labels. Prosecco wines made in other provinces cannot carry the province name on the labels.
Source: prosecco.it
Prosecco DOCG
There are two separate Prosecco DOCG zones, both falling within the borders of the province of Treviso. The first, and having the greatest repute, is Prosecco di Conegliano-Valdobbiadene. This zone is approximately 50 km from Venice and 100 km from the Dolomites. It runs east to west from the plains to the foot of the Alps and incorporates the 15 hill communities that lie between Conegliano and Valdiobbadene. Approximately 6100 ha of vineyards are deployed on south-facing slopes that range between 50- and 500-meters high.
An area within the municipality of Valdiobbadene called Cartizze is considered the region's cru. This 106-ha area has a mild microclimate and a varied soil to include moraine, sandstone, and clay components. The vineyards are positioned on south-facing slopes and have excellent drainage.
|Source: prosecco.it
The second DOCG zone is Colli Asolani/Asolo and is located in the Montello e Colli Asolani wine region. It encompasses a 5-mile-long ridge of gently rolling hills running between the towns of Cornuda and Asolo. The best vineyards are found on south-facing slopes where the gentle gradients and loose soil combine for excellent drainage and optimal sunlight exposure.
