The Air Force Reserve Officer Training (ROTC) program prepares men and women of character, commitment, and courage to assume leadership positions as commissioned officers in the active duty United States Air Force. Upon completion of the curriculum, students will have a thorough understanding of the core values, leadership, teamwork, and other requirements to be an effective officer in the world's greatest Air Force.
For more information on the Air Force Science program, contact the Air Force Science Department at the University of Houston by calling 713-743-4932 or online at http://www.class.uh.edu/rotc/airforce/.
All courses and physical training sessions take place at the University of Houston. Flight orientation occurs at airports in the Houston metro area.
ROTC classes may be taken for elective credit toward any degree plan at the University of Houston. Freshman and sophomore level classes are open to all students. No military obligation is incurred as a result of enrollment in these courses. Junior and senior level courses are more restrictive and do require a military obligation. ROTC scholarship students also incur a military obligation.
The General Military Course (GMC) is the first half of the four year ROTC program and is taken during the freshman and sophomore years. This program allows the student to experience Air Force ROTC without obligation (unless the student is on an Air Force ROTC scholarship).
Each semester of the GMC consists of one classroom hour of instruction as well as Leadership Laboratory each week.
During the first two years, the student will learn about the Air Force and the historical development of aerospace power.
During the summer preceding the junior year, the student will compete for the opportunity to attend a four-week Field Training Unit. Successful completion of field training is mandatory for entrance into the Professional Officer Course (POC), the junior and senior years of the four year program.
As a junior, the student will study the core values, leadership, teamwork, and management tools required to become an effective Air Force officer.
During the senior year, students study the national security policy process, regional and cultural studies, and complete final requirements for commissioning as second lieutenants.
Enrollment in the POC is open to graduate students if they have four semesters of school remaining. Each semester of the POC consists of three classroom hours of instruction as well as Leadership Laboratory each week.
As an Air Force ROTC cadet, each student is required to attend an additional two-hour class known as Leadership Laboratory.
Although not part of the academic class requirement, it is an essential part of officer training. Leadership Laboratory is an intensive, military training program in which students gain invaluable leadership and managerial experience while learning about the Air Force way of life. Students have numerous opportunities to hear guest speakers, panel discussions, participate in field trips, and experience practical leadership exercises.
Air Force ROTC offers various scholarship opportunities for students at the University of Houston:
In-College Scholarship Program (ICSP)— is a highly competitive scholarship program aimed primarily at college freshmen and sophomores in any major (students with a bachelor's degree can compete to earn a master's degree). The ICSP awards cover tuition capped at either $18,000 per year plus $900 per year for books or $9,000 per year plus $900 per year for books.
The Express Scholarship Program— is operated on a fully qualified basis: those who meet the qualifications are awarded the scholarship. Though the list of eligible college majors differs from year-to-year, the express scholarship cover full tuition per year and $900 for books. Recent majors which qualified for express scholarships included electrical and environmental engineering, computer science, and strategic foreign languages. The processing of the scholarship award is completed at the local detachment.
All AFROTC scholarship recipients and POC cadets receive a nontaxable monthly stipend. The annual stipend amount ranges from $3,000 per year to $6,000 per year depending on the recipient's enrollment year.
on AFROTC scholarship opportunities, please visit the AFROTC Web site at http://www.class.uh.edu/rotc/airforce/
or call 1-866-4AFROTC.
Cadets completing the General Military Course attend four weeks of field training (FT) during the summer at a selected Air Force base. Those who have not completed the GMC attend an extended FT Unit. This rigorous program of leadership training, physical conditioning and academics assesses the cadet's potential to be an Air Force officer.
Cadets also receive survival and firearms training and career information. Cadets receive travel pay and daily pay for FT.
All cadets can volunteer to participate in a joint Air Force ROTC/Civil Air Patrol flight orientation program. This consists of eight flights, four in the front seat of a small passenger aircraft and four additional fights in the back seat as an observer. In addition, an abbreviated flying ground school course is taught in the ROTC classrooms using FAA textbooks. The flight orientation and ground school course are both free for all cadets.
Cadets meet two times per week at the University of Houston Alumni Center to perform physical fitness training. The training is mandatory and emphasizes push-ups, sit-ups, and running in order to pass the USAF physical fitness test.
Cadets are eligible to compete to attend PDT during summer months.
PDT consists of several programs, including:
Cadets receive travel pay and daily pay for the majority of these programs.
contact the Unit Admissions Officer at 713-743-4932, 713-743-3704, or visit the University of Houston Air Force Web site at http://www.class.uh.edu/rotc/airforce.
During this time of war, our mission of producing Air Force second lieutenants of character, commitment, and courage is more important than ever.

The Tale of Despereaux
Posted on 27/04/2009 in Homepage 3, Specials
Presented as closing event of Future Film Festival eleventh edition (January 27th – February 1st 2009), The Tale of Despereaux is now released on Italian screens.
The latest mouse of a lot of rodents on tv and cinema, Despereaux is a strange mouse, little and brave, elegant and full of enthusiasm. Since he was a child, Despereaux is a very eccentric mouse, with a very marked intelligence. He lives a series of adventures and he knows also a human princess. He's banished from his home for not following the rules that society expects of a mouse, but he has a mission: rescue the princess.
The making of the movie
The movie realized with 3D animation, is directed by San Fell (Flushed Away) and Bob Stevenhagen and it's based on the children tale by Kate DiCamillo, best seller on 2003. The animation style remembers an illustrated book even though the movie is a CGI film. The graphic touch is inspired by the great Flemish school with master as Vermeer and Brueghel.
The animation was edited by the company Framestore Animation, famous for special effects of Harry Potter and The Golden Compass. The Framestore has preserved the movie style and it has applied pictorial techniques to the digitalization, keeping natural colours. Also the costumes have been created first with cloth, to preserve the tactile feature and to create a point of reference for the animators.
The staff has studied the European medieval architecture to create very realistic sets of the movie.
The movie remembers the classic Disney movies for its classic rhythm, the refined animation style and the soft humorism.
Curiosities: there are 413,158 hairs on Despereaux's head and the film has 126,248 frames altogether.

Was April 2012 a great month for genealogists?
Posted by Liv | Filed under Genea Musings
Was April 2012 a great month for genealogists? I truly believe it was! If nothing else, it was one of the BEST and most EXCITING months for me in the world of genealogy!

This is a beautiful Kusudama Ball. If you've never done origami before, don't be scared away. Take your time and you too can accomplish this.
I'm not 100% sure on the time frame. I have never started a project like this and worked it to the end. I usually take a few breaks….choco
Step #1:
Next- You will need 30 pieces of paper: 15 of one color and 15 of another color
- I'm going to use double sided paper for my ball. This means there is color on both sides of the paper. Usually one side has color/design and the other is white.
- I will do the directions in regular paper. Blue and Green.
- Cut all pieces in half.
- You should now have 30 pieces of one color and 30 pieces of the other.
Have fun and enjoy.

"Great Story"
Wow! How much can one man endure? Find out by reading this story. I love survival stories and have read many, including Unbroken (which I loved). The absolute solitude that Jan endured in this book is more than I think I could. A modern rewrite and performance of this story would bring it up a star I think.
"Didn't live up to the hype"
Haven't read the print.
Using the wasp nest for a weapon.
Defiance of defeat and death.
In my view this is a book for youths. I am really surprised at its reviews. There is definitely an intensity missing for the adult reader.
"Cold War "101""
Never read the print.
The author researched well and I enjoyed the flow of information.
I don't remember but he does a great job.
When Nicolae Ceaușescu showed absolutely no remorse when confronted with his crimes.
No. Too slow moving.
Taken out the sexual references.
I get weary of choosing classic/highly rated books only to stop after less than an hour because of bad language or content.
"Where do I start?"
A decent narrator!
The survival element.
Absolutely not.
His describes a lengthy fantasy/dream at one point. Made me wonder if he was "all there."
One of the worst books I've purchased with a credit. Terrible narrator. He has a STRONG Midwestern type accent, sounds nerdy, and talks way to fast, (this is the only audible book I've listened to where I had to run my iPod in slow mode.)
The book itself is poorly written. Overly dramatic. One gets the impression that the subject is reveling in recounting his adventures and that he actually enjoyed every minute of them.
Terrible, terrible, terrible!
"I recommend it."
Among the top 10.
Adolph Hitler. I enjoy his breakdown toward the end of the war and ultimate suicide. A taste of the suffering he put so many through.
Hitler's tirade upon meeting with his generals for one of the last times.
No. One can get a little bogged down in a couple of places with all the war details.
"Sorry, couldn't enjoy this"
Not really. I would have much rather enjoyed another more captivating book.
Possibly. Depends.
The narrator sounds like a dad scolding his 10 year old son up in the bedroom. The tone could be expressed by the phrase " How many times have I told you not to etc., etc, etc, "
I appreciate the research put into Desperate Passage but it could have been written in a more concise manner, and certainly could have had a better narrator.
Never read the print version.
River of doubt. Grueling, "Inch by inch" journeys. Amazing survival stories.
The sea leopard chasing one of the men across the ice.
No, it is intense and can wear you out after a while.
Amazing how the sequence of book listening can effect your perception. I just finished "Black Hawk Down". Both of these books were survival stories but the author of BHD SQUEEZED every ounce of emotion out of the characters, whereas I feel Alfred Lansing did NOT exploit these same emotional characteristics. The men of the Endurance almost seemed indifferent at times. I think depression was only mentioned once. Also I believe God was only mentioned once and prayer none at all ( If I remember correctly). SURELY, facing death as they did several times would cause introspection and supplication to ANY BEING that could possibly help! Makes me wonder if Lansing was an agnostic?
"Concise, gripping."
Haven't read the print edition.
Hiding place. Confinement in a Nazi death camp and final release.
Just his European accent.
Much pity for the Jews at that time.
Few have their faith in God tested as Elie did.
"Gritty, exhaustive."
Haven't read the print version but don't see how it could be better.
Feeling "with" the soldiers as they were under attack.
A masculine, military-like voice.
Yes, anger at politics in war. Disconnect between those on the ground and those in D.C.
One can mention prostitution without naming each particular sex act and position, and one can write a book on war without using a MULTITUDE of F----k's and blasphemies.
"I'm just not THAT interested in whaling!"
No. I don't have any friends that would be interested in whaling.
I guess I haven't learned my lesson. Some "classic" books are very slooooow moving and filled with excessive detail.

Bloody nerve! Libyan forward Toat El-Sheit, a long term target of Sam Allardyce, has rejected a move to West Ham, favouring a switch to Championship chumps Leeds United instead.
The forward triggered interest from Allardyce after making a big splash in the Moroccan GNF1, and was linked with QPR last summer until visa issues related to the conflict in Libya effectively blocked the deal. Warnock has remained a huge fan of the Libyan, however, and, flush with cash as the takeover of Leeds nears completion, is now in a position to sign El-Sheit.
You have to wonder about the player's ambition of course, when he prefers to play for a struggling team like Leeds rather than grab the opportunity of playing in the Premiership with West Ham. It's all very well for his agent to claim that Leeds are "a huge club with a fantastic history and immense potential" but they are, when all is said and done, a Championship club.
As for Warnock, you can bet your life that he is grinning like a Cheshire cat at the thought of pissing on West Ham's parade. But at the end of the day Toat El-Sheit is a Libyan, not a Brazilian, and so we shouldn't shed any tears quite yet.
Meanwhile, that take-over still hasn't happened so Leeds fans shouldn't get too cocky. Toat El-Sheit may be a sign of things to come at Leeds, as Master Bates will no doubt tell us, or could just be a flash in the pan. We will see.

Who Should Attend
One of the keys to success in life and in leadership is the personal attitude of the leader. How that attitude is developed determines every aspect of your reputation, your actions, and your legacy. Positive, self-confident feelings don't only help you achieve more. They make other people want to be associated with you. We all respond to the attitudes of others. That's why people are drawn to those with positive outlooks on life. Attitude rubs off on others, good or bad. There are few more powerful motivators than a positive attitude.
Can I enroll multiple people in different countries into the same program?
Can you deliver training in multiple locations around the world?
Would you come on-site to deliver the training?

Grammys spread love with top nominees West, Jay-Z, Ocean, Auerbach, Mumford & Sons and fun
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Grammy Awards celebrated the diversity of music as six different artists tied for lead nominee — Kanye West, Jay-Z, Frank Ocean, Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys, Mumford & Sons and fun.
Auerbach received five nominations as a member of the Keys and also is up for producer of the year, earning a spot with the others at the top of the list as the Grammy's primetime television special came to his hometown Wednesday night.
"We're speechless," Auerbach said in a statement to The Associated Press from Germany, where he's on tour with drummer Patrick Carney.
The rockers little resemble any of the other acts at the top of the list. The nominations for Jay-Z and West, two of hip-hop's most important figures, is a familiar refrain. Each has routinely been at or near the top of the nominations list for the last several years.
Indie pop band fun., a featured performer during the show, aired live from Nashville's Bridgestone Arena on CBS, rode the success of its anthemic hit "We Are Young" featuring Janelle Monae to sweep of the major categories, earning nods for best new artist, song and record for "We Are Young" and album of the year for "Some Nights." The band's producer Jeff Bhasker is up for four nominations.
"When you call your band fun. with a period at the end of the sentence, you set a very high standard for yourself and for fun itself," Taylor Swift, the concert's co-host, said in introducing them. "Fortunately this band from New York has lived up to the name in the best possible way."
R&B singer Ocean, whose mother was in attendance, made a bold social statement earlier this year when he noted he had a same-sex relationship in the liner notes of his new album "channel ORANGE," and The Recording Academy rewarded him with the nominations for best new artist, record for "Thinkin Bout You" and album of the year.
And British folk-rock band Mumford & Sons, which made an auspicious debut in front of an international audience during the 2011 Grammys, is up for album of the year for "Babel," one of 2012's best-selling releases.
Miguel, who helped Ocean shake up the R&B world this year, and jazz great Chick Corea join the Keys with five nominations apiece. Nas and recording engineer Bob Ludwig join Bhasker at four apiece.
There were no major snubs. Most of 2012's inescapable hits are represented in some way — Gotye's "Somebody That I Used To Know" is up for record of the year and Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe" garnered a song of the year nod. Drake, Rihanna and Nashville residents Swift, Kelly Clarkson, Jack White and best new artist nominee Hunter Hayes were among 16 nominees with three nods. Continued...
In many ways the nominations reflect a singles-driven year when no album rose to the level of acclaim as Adele's "21" or West's "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy," which dominated the Grammys last February.
The best new artist category is a great example of this year's diversity. From the minimalist R&B of Ocean, the pop-influenced sounds of fun. and Hayes, the soulful rock of Alabama Shakes and the Americana swing of The Lumineers, there's little resemblance between the acts.
"I think people listen to a lot of types of music and Spotify has proven that, and iPod has proven that," Lumineers member Wes Schultz said. "... Every person in that audience tonight, I saw them freaking out about various artists that have no relationship to each other."
Alabama Shakes drummer Steve Johnson noted the diversity in the category after the show, then made a surprising statement: "If I were on the other side of the fence, I'd vote Frank Ocean personally."
The members of fun. were "dorking it up" as they learned about their nominations, lead singer Nate Reuss said, and were especially excited to show up in the album of the year category, which also included Ocean's major label debut, the Keys' "El Camino," Mumford's "Babel" and White's "Blunderbuss."
"It's been an incredible year in music," guitarist Jack Antonoff said. "It feels like alternative music is back, looking at album of the year, especially those nominations. We couldn't be more proud to be in there. ... I think when we were sitting in our chairs out there, when we saw Jack White up there, that's when we really pinched ourselves. We felt so honored to be in the same category."
Miguel also had his mind on the forgotten art form of the album. Nominated in the major category of song of the year for "Adorn," he said in a phone interview from New York that he was most excited about another category — urban contemporary album.
"Of all of the categories to be nominated for, that is the one that means the most to me just because I just, I miss great albums. That's a huge compliment to say that your entire body of work was the best of the year," he said. "I don't know. That's the one that means the most to me. I'm really hoping maybe, just maybe."
He'll find out when the 55th annual Grammy Awards take place Feb. 10 in Los Angeles. Trophies will be handed out in 81 categories.
The 5-year-old nominations show was held outside Los Angeles for the first time and showcased Music City for its growing role in the music industry. The Bridgestone Arena marked the largest venue the show has been held in and it may have been a dress rehearsal for a chance to host the main awards show sometime in the future. Continued...
LL Cool J returned as host, sharing duties with Swift, whose hit song "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" earned a nod in the jam-packed record of the year category. She was joined by fun., Gotye, Clarkson's "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)," The Black Keys' "Lonely Boy" and Ocean's "Thinkin Bout You."
Song of the year nominees were Ed Sheeran's "The A Team," Miguel's "Adorn," Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe," Clarkson's "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)" and fun.'s "We Are Young."
Swift and LL Cool J opened the show by putting together a beat-box version of Swift's hit "Mean." Hayes displayed his versatility while announcing the best pop vocal album by singing snippets of each star's hit song. Maroon 5 played headliner, singing three songs mid-show before finishing off the live broadcast. The group stuck around for an hourlong performance afterward for the crowd in attendance.
Assisted by Monae, fun. reimagined "We Are Young" with orchestral strings as the crowd sang along, Ne-Yo, in wine-colored bowler, kicked things up with a cadre of dancers on his new club-infused song "Let Me Love You." And the show tipped its hat to Nashville with a salute to Johnny Cash by Dierks Bentley and The Band Perry.

Museums & Galleries in Orangeburg
Recommended Museums & Galleries by Groupon Customers
When visitors step into one of the South's largest children's museums, there's one thought that commonly crosses their minds: That's a big kid. Waiting to greet them is a 40-foot-tall statue of EDDIE, a reinforced, molded-plastic boy who weighs 17.6 tons and—like almost everything at EdVenture Children's Museum—is ready for kids to explore. After they've climbed inside his heart, up to his brain, and slid down his intestines—all while learning about their own bodies—kids race to explore the rest of the museum's more than 350 hands-on activities contained within nine exhibit galleries. As a testament to its attractions, EdVenture Children's Museum received the 2011 National Medal for Museum and Library Service, an honor given to only 10 libraries and museums in the nation.
Past Eddie, EdVenture's permanent exhibits include the World of Work, where kids climb aboard a John Deere tractor, take the helm of a 24-foot fire truck, and learn the value of money by spending Eddie Bucks on groceries or flooding the market to undermine the local economy. At the Aha Factory, wee ones recycle everyday items into paper snowflakes, pipe-cleaner butterflies, and glitter-encrusted egg cartons. Children 3 and younger, meanwhile, can explore the My Backyard exhibit, an age-appropriate haven of soft surfaces.
Though built in 1893 to manufacture textiles, the Columbia Mills' storied stone halls now weave tapestries of knowledge with exhibits on everything from lasers and space travel to South Carolina's role in the Civil War. Boasting accolades by Columbia Metropolitan magazine and the Smithsonian, South Carolina State Museum devotes each of its four floors and part of its fourth dimension to art, cultural history, natural history, and science and technology represented by more than 70,000 artifacts.
Through a series of permanent exhibits, curators lead visitors on a cultural and geological voyage. Guests stroll through years of traditional and contemporary art by state artists, marvel at a 43-foot white shark display and full dinosaur skeletons, or cast imaginations back in exhibits on turn-of-the-century transportation, laser technology, and aviation. The museum also excavates the surrounding landscape to present 14,000 years of local culture in Native American tools and colonial-era lifestyle items.
Five galleries also house changing exhibits featuring assemblages of artifacts from Civil War–era Charleston or 300 years of American-made telescopes, each carefully monitored to ensure they contain just the right amount of science. While museum staffers frequently rotate their exhibits, they also host traveling displays and send others on the road through the Traveling Exhibits Program. Various education displays such as interactive children's labs, living-history reenactments, and lectures from visiting scholars further enrich all-ages visitors.
When the Charleston Museum was founded in 1773, South Carolina was still a British colony. Today, the museum is itself a historical gem, surviving both the American Revolution and Civil War and acquiring an astounding collection of South Carolinian artifacts along the way. Nine permanent exhibits include the Armory, brimming with antique weaponry, and the Lowcountry History Hall, which chronicles the land's metamorphosis from a tribal society into an agricultural empire, telling the story with early trading goods, slave badges, and pottery. Temporary exhibits change regularly, keeping visitors on their toes in the same way changing cell phone numbers every 24 hours does.
The museum extends its history-preserving mission to two area homes: the 19th-century Joseph Manigault House, once home to a wealthy rice plantation owner, and the Heyward-Washington House, where George Washington once stayed during a weeklong visit to the city. Restored rooms, period pieces, and loudly snoring grandfather clocks await guests during scheduled tours.
It was February 17, 1864. The USS Housatonic floated in Charleston Harbor atop calm, cold waters. Below the surface, a group of Confederate soldiers sweated bullets as they cranked the propellers of the H. L. Hunley, speeding toward the Union's Housatonic on a historic mission: they would become the first submarine crew ever to sink an enemy ship. A 135-pound torpedo struck the Housatonic's stern, detonating a fiery explosion that sank the vessel within minutes. The Hunley then surfaced just long enough for the crew to flash a blue magnesium light, signaling to fellow forces on the shore that the mission succeeded and the submarine would return. And it did—but not until almost 140 years later, when it was raised from the harbor's sandy bottom on August 8, 2000, after author Clive Cussler discovered the wreck intact.
Today, the leaders of the nonprofit H. L. Hunley Submarine seek to conserve, restore, and ultimately exhibit this historic vessel, as well as solve the mystery of how it completed its mission only to vanish moments later. They welcome visitors to see the submarine in its current condition—within a 90,000-gallon conservation tank—and educate guests on the vessel's many details. Guides walk guests through features such as the manual-propulsion system and automatic moon roof, and illuminate exhibits such as a lifesize model from the TNT movie The Hunley.

OrCAD Capture CIS
What's New
OrCAD Capture CIS integrates the schematic design application with the features of a component information system (CIS) to streamline production, and help Capture users design more intelligently.
Capture CIS integrates the features of a component information system with Cadence schematic capture technology. Capture CIS includes the proven, industry-standard schematic entry tools in OrCAD Capture and an advanced component information system that is accessed directly in the Capture interface. CIS gives designers important component information at their fingertips which helps them to reduce production delays and cost overruns through efficient management of components. CIS also augments the time savings of a highly efficient schematic entry tool by reducing the time spent searching for existing parts to reuse, manually entering part information content, and maintaining component data.
CIS can be enhanced even further with the
Component Information Portal™
(CIP). CIP is a comprehensive, "off-the-shelf" CIS management environment that includes a component library with a per-defined set of fields to help take the guesswork out of defining a database schema. This allows for immediate and effective use of the CIS.
Integrates with a robust component information system (CIS) to promote reuse of preferred, current parts
Accelerates the design process and lowers project costs
Reduces time spent researching parts
Enables intelligent component selection with access to MRP, ERP, and PLM data
Provides access to more than two million parts with Cadence ActiveParts
OrCAD Capture CIS integrates the schematic design application with the features of a component information system (CIS) to streamline production, and help Capture users design more intelligently.
Industry Standard Schematic Editor
The flat and hierarchical schematic page editor of OrCAD Capture builds on the OrCAD legacy of fast and easy schematic editing.
Industry Standard Schematic Editor
The flat and hierarchical schematic page editor of OrCAD Capture builds on the OrCAD legacy of fast and easy schematic editing.
It combines an intuitive interface with the features and functionality needed to speed design tasks and facilitate circuit creation. The autowire capability, for example, automates the often tedious and time-consuming task of wiring signal pins. Wiring between component pins is as simple as selecting a starting pin and a destination pin and letting the software automatically and quickly add the connection. For larger, more complex designs, OrCAD Capture supports multi-sheet and hierarchical designs. It also makes hierarchical designs easy to traverse and ensures that all connections are maintained accurately throughout the design.
Component Information System
The Component Information System (CIS) is a central part of the OrCAD Capture design solution.
Component Information System
The Component Information System (CIS) is a central part of the OrCAD Capture design solution.
Using CIS provides designers with shared a searchable database to utilize while completing their designs. It also promotes reuse of component information instead of individual repeated effort. It automatically synchronizes and validates the externally sourced data with the schematic design database. CIS works with any database that complies with Microsoft's ODBC standard to directly access data in an MRP, ERP, or PLM system, or in an intermediate database dedicated to engineering component data.
With easy access to component databases and part information, designers can reduce the amount of time spent researching parts. CIS allows users to identify, utilize, and design with preferred components. Parts can be queried based on their electrical, physical, or corporate characteristics, then be automatically retrieved for use in the schematic. Adding components directly from company databases minimizes errors in bills of materials (BOMs) and parts lists, and allows control of part usage for industry directives such as RoHS and WEEE.
Advanced BOM Generation
CIS also provides powerful report generation that can be used to quickly create BOMs to a variety of different user specifications.
Advanced BOM Generation
CIS also provides powerful report generation that can be used to quickly create BOMs to a variety of different user specifications.
Instead of limiting designers to just those properties that reside in the schematic, CIS draws from the extensive wealth of information that resides in the preferred part database, taking report generation to the next level. Designers can generate BOMs using up-to-date, comprehensive, and complete information, and create reports through the Crystal report engine. In addition CIS integrates with Microsoft's ODBC compliant databases, and can allow users to access data directly in an MRP, ERP or PDM system.
CIS allows for the creation and use of relational tables in the component parts database. These relational tables have a one-to-many relationship with the part information (primary) tables. The relational database may contain a vendor table with multiple vendor/manufacture part numbers for a single company part number in the electrical (e.g. resistor) table. With this structure, search and query for data across the primary and relational tables is possible.
Design Variants
With the design variants capability, designers can manage unlimited board assembly variations without having to maintain duplicate schematics...

or manually edit BOMs. This feature is incredibly powerful for designers and leads to the following time saving benefits:
Reduces the number of files to handle by maintaining all design assembly variations within a
single file
Modify the core schematic design and see the change automatically reflected throughout all assembly variations
Ensure the integrity of component data in each assembly through the property verification utility
Identify substituted and non-placed components within each assembly, assisted by graphical indicators and comparison reports
Generate schematic printouts and BOMs for each assembly at any point in the design process

OrCAD Capture / CIS
Version History:
16.6 Features and Enhancements
apture – PCB SI integration and flow:
With product integration comes a new bi-directional schematic entry/signal integrity flow that allows electrical engineers to explore circuit topologies, develop constraints, and analyze signal integrity.
Quick-place for common components:
A new menu, Place >PSpice Component, enables quick-place for commonly used schematic or simulation components. The menu items list of components is user-configurable and has been pre-populated with PSpice® simulation devices (passive, discrete, sources, digital).
User-configurable menus and toolbars:
Menus, toolbars, and icons in OrCAD Capture, PSpice Advanced Analysis, and Model Editor can now be customized. This makes it possible to run any Tcl method or script from the menus.
Enhancements to the Find function:
The Find function now allows searches for parts by value of a given property (e.g. Property Name=Value) or use of a regular expression as the search string. For example, to search for components with designators starting with C or R and followed by any number between 2 and 9, use the search string Part Reference=(C|R)[2-9].
NetGroup enhancements:
The NetGroup use model is now aligned with the Bus use model for intuitiveness and consistency. Enhancements areas include: assign a NetGroup to a Bus, reorder pins in an unnamed NetGroup, add and remove pins from a NetGroup, visible NetGroup references, and find NetGroup references.
Enhanced Save function for design and library
: Pages that are changed and need to be saved are now marked by an asterisk (*) in the Capture Project Manager. When a save is initiated, the marked pages are saved.
Global Replace for OffPage:
The Find and Replace dialog box (Edit> Global Replace) has a new option, OffPage Connector, to find and replace OffPage connectors.
Preserve "User-Assigned" designator
Reference designator management improvements now track the user-modified references and allow finer end-user control over managing the part references for the entire design. A reference designator can be interactively set as user-assigned through the newly added "User-Assigned" flag to preserve designators and references in conjunction with the Preserve Designator and Preserve User-Assigned Valid References in the Annotate window. Capture will also mark a reference designator as user-assigned if the reference is manually changed in Property Editor, manually changed in the schematic canvas, or changed by the board through back-annotation.
Design Level auto reference:
In addition to schematic-level annotation, design-level annotation is now available by selecting the Design Level option in the Miscellaneous tab of the Preferences dialog box. An option to preserve references when copying is also available.
Browsing/viewing designs created in earlier versions:
Designs created using earlier versions of Capture can now be opened and viewed without requiring the design to be uprev'ed. Such designs only need to be uprev'ed when the design is actually saved.
Closing all tabs:
Canvas tabs can now all be closed, or all but this tab closed with an RMB selection. Right-click on the tab and choose the appropriate option (Close, Close All Tabs, or Close All Tabs But This.
Custom design rule check (DRC):
Though Tcl scripting, user-defined schematic and circuit checks can be created and added to the Capture DRC routines. Several R&D examples include checks for hanging wires, device pin mismatches, overlapping wires, reference prefix mismatches, port-pin mismatches, and shorted discrete parts.
Project Save As enhancements:
While saving a project in 16.6, a project name that is different from the design name can be specified to mimic the manual process of copying/moving a product from one hard-drive location to another. Options include the ability to copy/move all referenced files, ensuring that all links are updated while saving.
RefDes support alignment:
Capture and CIS now handle references and designators in the same manner, eliminating the need for manual Reference Designator corrections in the CIS database and BOMs. CIS now supports all reference designator formats including as U2N, C1_R, C12-1, R7-TOP, MP_2V5_REF, and TP3V3_0. Also, the reference designator for multi-packages is consistent (e.g. MP_2V5_REF will be MP_2V5_REF not MP_2V5_REFA).
Linking external design parts:
parts of the external design can now be linked at the group or subgroup level.
[CIS ONLY] CIS performance increase:
overall performance for CIS operations, especially when dealing with very large databases or queries, has been significantly improved.
Large Database Operation

CIS ONLY] Tcl customization for CIS Explorer:
CIS Explorer can be custom-configured with user-definable actions and capabilities. (For example, customized part placement checks can disable placement of an EOL part or provide a warning if part procurement has a long lead time). Query result rows can also be customized. (For example, rows can be highlighted blue for recommended parts or red for parts not recommended or allowed.)
[CIS ONLY] Multi-value support:
Any CIS field can now be set as multi-valued for component instances with numerous information or content sources (e.g. lists for multiple datasheets/application notes or multiple PSpice models for a component).
16.5 Features and Enhancements
Graphical Operation Locking (GOp):
The GOp locking feature in Capture now allows you to lock the different parts of a schematic design. Lock objects on a page, folder, or even the complete design. This feature prevents inadvertently moving or deleting parts of a design that are locked. Designs requiring alteration will need to be unlocked before any changes are made.
Placement Report:
Generate a report of the X and Y locations of the placement of the parts on a schematic. This report, generated as a .CSV file, provides these details of the parts:
Reference Designator
Part Name
Schematic Name
Sheet Number
File System Location of the Part Library
X and Y co-ordinate location
Find Results Report:
After executing the Find command on a design, generate a report for the results from the command. By running the Find command to search for different types of objects in a design, the search results display in different tabs of the Find window, allowing you to export the data from each tab.
Net Groups:
OrCAD Capture introduces the concept of the NetGroup that allows you to create groups of nets. A NetGroup can include a group of scalar nets, vector nets, or a combination of both. Capture allows you to create Named NetGroups that can be used across a design or exported to other designs. Alternatively, for one-time use, you can create an Unnamed/Adhoc NetGroup.
The new NetGroup Connector can be used to intelligently merge and tap out signals. It can also be used to generate net names for connected signals.
CIS.INI Settings:
While the Capture INI settings are always dynamic, the CIS settings are more or less static and usually do not change after the initial CIS database related setup. You may often need to clear out and reinitialize your Capture INI settings, but may still want to retain the CIS settings. To allow this, OrCAD 16.5 now retains the CIS INI settings in a separate back-up file. This file retains the CIS INI settings that Capture will retrieve when it re-initializes the Capture INI settings.
Partial Design Simulation:
The 16.5 release comes with the productivity enhancing feature of partial design simulation. You can now identify individual components of any design, and, using the partial design simulation feature, simulate only selected portions. Using this feature, you can simulate different circuits in the design with different simulation profiles. You can also netlist only a particular portion of the design. In addition, you can compare and merge portions of a design quickly.

t THE PIERZ JOURNAL VOL. 4. PIERZ, MORRISON COUNTY, MINNESOTA, OCTOBER 17, 1912. NO. IS. EARLY KiSTOHY OF HliiE LACS COUNTY Lake Breeze—At tlie state historical rooms at St. Paul is the only authenic history of the Mille Lacs lake country. A few years ago the State Historical Society thought enough of the matter to send Prof. Blower to Paris to look up the history and the French government furnished and presented Prof. Blowers with all the dakta it had on the early history of this country. The dates given here are furnished by the French Historical Bureau and Society. The first of the Jesuit Fathers to visit this point was Father Radisson in the year 1659, 253 years ago- He reports the lake country as one great Sioux camp, containing a great number of that tribe of Indians. He was followed by Du Luth in 1(379, 233 years ago, and next by Accult in 1680, 232 years ago and Father Hennepin soon after. The battle of Kathio was fought in 1750, 162 years ago, and the Chippewas drove the Sioux down the Rum river and held the territory until ceded to the government. We believe it was live years ago that Prof. Blowers and four assistants of the State Historical Society, spent some time here examining the country for the purpose of determining the spot where the battle of Kathio was fought, and they came to the conclusion that it was at Vineland where this great battle was fought. They brought back with them relics that they found here which the Society value at $4000. Artificial Frauds To please the eye is better than to please any other sense. For many years the grocers hi' ve taken tightly-packed boxes of strawberries when received from pickc-s, emptied them out, repacked them loosely, placing the largest strawberries on top, and making rive boxes out of four, get more money for them than they could for the tightly-packed boxes. Not content with that, they are now coloring berries with coal tar dye to make them a brilliant red. Several convictions have been had recently on that score. After all, the only people immune from arrest for impurities are the makers of beer such as golden grain belt beers. Order of E. S. Tanner, Little Falls.—Advt. Our lime, plaster and cement is always the best on the market. To be good this must be fresh. Our aim is to handle it so it is rvj- its best. J. Borger ding & C _ E. Macho, Agent. Advt. On The Track of the fast express means serious trouble ahead if not removed, so does loss of appetite. It means lack of Vitality, loss of strength and nerve weakness. If appetite fails, take Electric Bitters quickly to overcome the cause by toning up the stoi and curing the indigestion. Mich. Hessheimer of Lincoln, Neb., had been sick over three years, but six bottles of Electric Bitters put him on his feet again. They have helped thousands. They give pure blood, strong nerves, good digestion. Only 50 cents at E. L. Kaliher. Advt. George Kiewel and wife motored to Pierz today.

The School Apportionment A GOOD SHOW The Ranee people who showed here Monday and Tuesaay evenings of this week, played to large houses.

When our country was new the Indians used to terrorize the whites in summer time, but when cold weather set in, they retired farther into the forests. Then if there should come a warm spell, the whites with feelings of terror would say, "Another Indian summer.'' And that would be late in November, instead of in October as the weather man has it. Still the cold spell might be earlier in some seasons than in others. But, thank the Lord for this fine weather. —O. Wheelock. There is more catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only Constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address: F. J.

COLLEGE BELLE WAYNE CHAMPION DAIRY COW College Belle Wayne is a Holstein cow owned and bred by the South Dakota State co1 Her official record is as foil seven days 824.8 pounds of milk 26.3 pounds fat or 35.4 pounds of butter: 80 da] I pounds milk lie. 545 pounds fat or 68 pounds butter. The causes which brought about such large production of milk are as follows: First, good milk and butter producing ancestors; second, good raising; third good feed and care especially during the time of freshening and the official dairy backing. The dam of College Belle Wayne was LedaGerben Wayne. She had a two year old seven day record of nearly 18 pounds of butter. She has now three daughters in the College herd which are all large milk producers. Thus the mother of College Belle Wayne was not only a large producer, but she had the power to transmit this quality to her daughters. She was bought from Md 'ay Bros, herd in Iowa. The sire of College Belle Wayne is Beppo Jewel Lad. All of his daughters are large producers. The sire of this hull is Colantha 4th Lad. Prom this short description it will be seen that College Belle ne owes her hereditary producing' ability to the combined efforts of many. The point that should be emphasized is, that College Belle Wayne and her record is not an accident. She stands as the product of careful selection and intelligent mating. During the Hush of the season the Pierz Co-operative creamery made 112 tubs of butter. About 199 cows like College Belle Wayne would have produced that amount. The Pierz Co-operative cream ery paid 31 cents for butter fat the 5th of October. What didyou get:* To be continued next week. We will tell what and how she was fed during the test.

Best of Cape Town Awards
Did you know?
Cape Town is a member of the BestCities Global Alliance, which guarantees quality service levels for conference organisers.
The year 2008 was mind-blowing for Cape Town with tourism related awards streaming in for the city and members of its accommodation sector. Here are some of these Best of Cape Town awards:
- The readers of the UK Telegraph voted Cape Town as their favourite city outside Europe. (They also named South Africa their 3rd favourite country outside Europe ).
- In Condé Nast Traveller's Readers Choice, Cape Town was named top city in Africa/Middle East, and 4th in the world.
- Our Mother City also appeared on the list of the 10 top Global Sustainability Centres, an honour coming from the USA Ethisphere Institute.
- The Winchester Mansions in the seaside suburb of Greenpoint appeared in the 'Top 100 Best Value Awards' by Budget Travel Magazine and website TripAdvisor, a poll of world's most reliable hotels with an average rate of US$250 or less.
- The gracious Steenberg Hotel in Constantia was declared "Best Luxury Hotel in Africa' by TripAdvisor's Travellers' Choice Awards.
Local institutions and media consistently honour Cape Town too. Cape Town related tourism awards in the last 12 months include:
- A vote for the Protea Hotel Fire and Ice in Tamboerskloof as the 'Best New Hotel Development', from the Tourism Business Council of South Africa, which runs the Hospitality Investment Awards.
- Radio station Good Hope FM awarded the Vineyard Hotel & Spa the 'Best of Cape Town Hospitality Award.'
Calvyn Gilfellan, chief executive of Cape Town Routes Unlimited, a tourism destination marketing organisation, recently observed that this spate of tourism-related Cape Town awards indicated that despite the city being a long-haul destination, it remained a highly aspirational travel destination for international tourists. This is all the more encouraging, given that the current worldwide credit crunch is forcing holidaymakers to seriously consider more affordable travel options.
