I am so excited to hear that! Mr. Shy Boy enters something into a CONTEST with other PEOPLE! W00T!
And yes, I am teasing you. :)
Good luck in the contest!

- Jay's Shadow said...
Very cool. It is nice to see you enter a different contest.
Not to cut up any of the other entries, but you should have this one in the bag. Monster in the closet was pretty cool, but the other two were pretty lame. Yours is so much more original and all homemade, then adding John Glasset's score tops it off.
Good Luck!

And after it's over, I'll happily delete it : )

- Rot said...
HA..thanks! I appreciate that.
And I also was puzzled by Marrow's comment : D
Marrow, are you older than you've led us to believe? ; )

- Ragged Grin said...
I think infants have FB accounts actually.
Good luck to you and bean, I shall cast a vote.
I'm not a FB fiend by any stretch but I do use it. Has helped me locate and re connect with quite a few army buddies which I'm very proud of.
Jab back and forth with Rania from time to time over football, etc. Great, great girl, awesome talent.
Again, best luck, all due respect to the others, Foetus deserves to win handily, which I trust that it will....and the legend grows.

I definitely see a value in FB.
I'm just coming from a very VERY antisocial place when I make those comments : )

- Willow Cove said...
Good idea Girl6, I'll use my wife's and kids' account to vote. 3 votes there. or is that cheating? Dang guilty conscience! I'll just have to bribe-uh convince them. No worries, they know it supports a great Halloween artist who inspires me daily.

- Marrow said...
Maybe 'several' wasn't the right word to use...
I deleted my account three years ago, age 12.
And yes, infants use Facebook. It's some scary stuff. But until Facebook removes the compulsory Date Of Birth feature, fetuses shall remain absent.

Very cool Rot !
Do you have to have a facebook account in order to vote? I stay away from there myself..seen to many of my peers become so absorbed in it that they live inside their computer. If you do need one, no problem. I can get on my daughters and vote for you.

They posted a few more movies.

Woo! Good Luck Rot!!! :D I will go and vote.
Yes I have a FB account and hell hath frozen over, we just got iPhones. :D Be careful with your prepaid phone company, Rot. The company I use just royally screwed us over and we lost our number and $50.00.

- Rania said...
I don't understand how to vote for you. It says whichever film gets the most likes through their Facebook app wins and I am there, but see NO like option for it. I would vote for that movie 100 times over.
- February 19, 2013 at 4:55 PM

I'll do a blog entry with a link.

Otherworldly, i guess...<3333
is this bean?...
- February 23, 2013 at 12:58 PM
- Rot said...
aw thanks : )
Nope..not bean.
all photos of the witch are either the puppet tied to a weighted lamp post, or tied to a stake in the ground (outside shots).
I think that was the hardest part of the shoot - setting up the witch after the video was filmed. The ones where she's holding the pumpkin in the cemetery were the trickiest. The hands kept drooping from the weight of the foam pumpkin. I built the hands separately to be attached later.

So sorry again. xx

Hi Maria,
I've only just recently come across your blog and I think it is lovely. I'm quite surprised to find so many blogs online about food and domesticity where most of the writers have a pet cat that they love to talk about. I wonder what it is about the two? I guess they go together well in someway.
Anyway I'm really sorry to hear about your poor pusca. We've had many cats and I know how horrible it is. Just this Christmas we lost our little cat Boris, who was a suffering stray who came to stay - you can read about him in my blog, I wrote a tribute. We loved him so so much.
I know I may sound like a crazy cat lady but I do believe cats have a particular thing about them - a kind of energy that makes them very special. Maybe you understand what I mean?
I don't have cats at my house as I am tragically allergic but my mum still keeps them and I endure the ailments. Every time I see a cat when I'm out and about walking I feel happy... anyway just wanted to share these thoughts with you and let you know that I'm thinking of you and your Ollie. xxx

The workers are most likely to be focused on saving for retirement probably have access to an employer-sponsored plan and are contributing to it, according to a report released Thursday by the Investment Company Institute. ICI studied data from the Census Bureau and Bureau of Labor Statistics' March 2012 Current Population Survey and found that almost three-quarters of people "most likely to desire to save for retirement" already have access to a plan. Of those, 93% are contributing.
Who are those retirement-minded people? ICI identified the people most likely to want to save for retirement as older, higher-income workers. Younger workers and those with lower incomes identified other reasons for saving: education funding, a house, an emergency cash fund.
ICI found that half of all workers from 21 to 64 have access to a retirement plan through their employer. Excluding seasonal or part-time workers under 30, access increases to 60%. Among that subset, access for those who earn more than $45,000 (or 45- to 64-year-olds who earn more than $26,000) increases to 69%, 74% when including a spouse's employer-sponsored plan.
"The probability that an employee works for a firm that sponsors a plan is highly related to the employee's characteristics," according to ICI. Workers at companies that sponsor retirement plans are more likely to be older, have higher earnings and work full time all year. For example, 38% of workers in their 20s have access to an employer-sponsored plan, compared with 56% of workers between 55 and 64. Among workers who make less than $15,000 annually, 22% have access to a plan; 73% of those who make more than $64,000 per year have access. Less than a quarter of seasonal or part-time workers had access to a plan, while 57% of full-time, full-year workers did.
"The fact that worker characteristics are related to the employer's decision to sponsor a plan suggests that worker demand for retirement benefits plays a key role in determining which employers sponsor retirement plans," according to the report.
The commitment to saving carries through workers at companies of all sizes. Smaller employers were much less likely to offer a plan than large employers: 17% versus 68%. Consequently, participation looks low when considering all small firms. Just 13% of employees at any firm with fewer than 10 workers participates in an employer-sponsored plan. However, when considering only firms that sponsor a plan, participation is similar to the largest firms—78% at firms with fewer than 10 workers and 81% at those with more than 1,000. In fact, the average participate rate for all firms that sponsor a plan was 80%.
ICI argued that Social Security was designed to replace a larger portion of earnings for low-income workers while higher earners use more income from private savings and employer-sponsored retirement plans.
"This is not unintentional; from the inception of Social Security, policymakers understood that Social Security alone would be insufficient for those with higher lifetime earnings and intended for Social Security and employer-provided pensions to work together."
In light of that, according to ICI, the private-sector pension system should be improved without making drastic changes to a system that "already provides retirement benefits to most of the workers who are likely to value retirement benefits more highly than cash compensation."

It's happening this weekend, Justin Timberlake's dream wedding. Most the guests had arrived in Italy by last night. You can see a shot of Andy Samberg in one of these photos attached. There was a fireworks celebration. The location? Southern Italy. Most outlets are withholding the location - a small town in Southern Italy - out of competition with each other but also because they don't want to get sh-t on for sending the paparazzi and the crazy fans down there.
Please. The paps are there already. And the crazy fans already know. You know why? Because Justin's not famous cousins keep tweeting about where they are. And posting photos. And no one is more resourceful than a crazy fan hunting sh-t down online.
At press time (Thursday, 7am PT), while almost every publication has made at least a small mention of the upcoming event, nothing from PEOPLE Magazine. Does that mean a deal is in play? Going with PEOPLE seems almost low-brow these days. I feel like JT would look down on that sh-t too. Vogue or nothing!

Creating and Modifying XML in Java
Almost two years ago, I wrote a blog with code (found here) that parsed XML easily using the Apache Xerces DOM parser. In the blog, I wrote some helper methods to locate XML elements and return their values in a less verbose way. This proved to be one of my most popular blog entries to date. However, one reader commented that it would be nice to add helper methods to easily create or modify XML, not just parse it. This blog is the answer to that request.
I've added two new helper methods to the code I presented last time:
setNodeValue— takes an element (or tag) name, a
Stringvalue, and the list of nodes within which the existing node can be found
addNode— takes an element (or tag) name, a
Stringvalue, and the parent node for which the new node is to be a child of
Let's look at
setNodeValue, which is meant to set the value of an existing XML element within your XML document:
protected void setNodeValue(String tagName, String value, NodeList nodes) { Node node = getNode(tagName, nodes); if ( node == null ) return; // Locate the child text node and change its value NodeList childNodes = node.getChildNodes(); for (int y = 0; y < childNodes.getLength(); y++ ) { Node data = childNodes.item(y); if ( data.getNodeType() == Node.TEXT_NODE ) { data.setNodeValue(value); return; } } }
The code works by first locating the specified node within the list of nodes provided. If it's not found, the method returns without doing anything. Otherwise it locates the node's text value child node, sets that child node's value to the new value, and returns. Pretty straightforward but somewhat verbose, and definitely not something you want to repeat all over your code. As a result, this helper method comes in handy.
Next, let's look at
addNode, which adds a new XML element, with value, to your XML document:
protected void addNode(String tagName, String value, Node parent) { Document dom = parent.getOwnerDocument(); // Create a new Node with the given tag name Node node = dom.createElement(tagName); // Add the node value as a child text node Text nodeVal = dom.createTextNode(value); Node c = node.appendChild(nodeVal); // Add the new node structure to the parent node parent.appendChild(node); }
To create any type of
Node or
Element object with the Xerces parser, you need a reference to the XML document's
Document object. Any existing
Node or
Element can provide this via a call to
getOwnerDocument. Next, we create a generic
Element object with the element tag name provided. Then, we create a specific
Text Node with the value provided, and append it to the new
Element created prior. Finally, the
Element (with its child
Text Node) is added as a child to the parent
Node provided, and our work is done.
Using the Methods
In my previous blog, I presented code that simply parsed the XML and read the values of some tags, as such:
DOMParser parser = new DOMParser(); parser.parse("mydocument.xml"); Document doc = parser.getDocument(); // Get the document's root XML node NodeList root = doc.getChildNodes(); // Navigate down the hierarchy to get to the CEO node Node comp = getNode("Company", root); Node exec = getNode("Executive", comp.getChildNodes() ); String execType = getNodeAttr("type", exec); // Load the executive's data from the XML NodeList nodes = exec.getChildNodes(); String lastName = getNodeValue("LastName", nodes ); String firstName = getNodeValue("FirstName", nodes); String street = getNodeValue("street", nodes ); ...
I won't go into detail here as this is all explained in the previous blog. Instead, let's modify the value of the
"street" tag, assuming the company moved:
setNodeValue("street", "456 Maple Avenue", nodes);
Next, let's add the person's phone number, which was missing in the original XML:
addNode("Phone", "123-456-7890", exec );
And that's it. Very simple and one line of code for changes made to the XML.
Serializing the DOM
After using these two methods to modify your XML document, you may want to write the content out as an XML file to disk. To do so, you need to serialize the
Document as shown in this abbreviated sample code that loads an XML document, modifies it, and then saves it back to disk:
// First read the XML file and parse DOMParser parser = new DOMParser(); parser.parse("mydocument.xml"); Document doc = parser.getDocument(); // Modify the XML ... // Write updated XML doc = parser.getDocument(); OutputFormat format = new OutputFormat(doc); format.setIndenting(true); String filename = "mydocument"+System.currentTimeMillis()+".xml"; XMLSerializer serializer = new XMLSerializer( new FileOutputStream(new File(filename)), format); serializer.serialize(doc);
When beginning the serialization process, it's important to call
getDocument again to be sure we have the updated
Document structure. Next, set the formatting to maintain indentation. To preserve the original XML file, a new filename is created. Finally, the Xerces
XMLSerializer is used to write the contents of the
Document to a new file with the given filename. Of course, you can alternatively provide the previous file to overwrite it.
The Xerces parser makes it easy to create and parse XML documents, although some of the API leads to verbose Java code. This blog, combined with the previous one I wrote, makes it much easier to perform common operations when parsing and modifying your XML files. I hope you find it useful.
Happy Coding!

An Israeli and a Palestinian in England taught me a new word in French.
No matter how many ways I try to string that sentence together, it always sounds like the beginning of a joke that starts in a bar. Luckily, the story ends in the kitchen.
The Israeli is Yotam Ottolenghi. The Palestinian is Sami Tamimi. They both grew up on opposite sides of Jerusalem and met years later in London.
The restaurant is Ottolenghi, the one they partnered to open a decade ago. The dishes draw upon their common food memories and Mediterranean influences. I can only surmise this based on the two cookbooks that have come out of their kitchen. I've never been to their restaurants. But I have eaten their food. And that's how today's digression begins.
The French word I learned is mangetout. It comes from the French words manger (to eat) and tout (all). It refers to varieties of peas that are eaten whole in their pods which are edible when young — the flat-podded snow peas and the round-podded sugarsnap peas. Those Brits! Their supposed animosity with the French and their food — the two cultures trade mild insults, with the English calling the French "frogs" for cuisses de grenouilles, the frogs legs they eat, and the French calling the English "rosbifs" for the roast beef they eat — must be some sort of ruse to cover up their love of French food names like courgette (zucchini) and rocket/roquette (arugula).
When I saw the picture opposite the recipe for French beans and mangetout with hazelnut and orange, I immediately flagged page 36 in Ottolenghi – The Cookbook. The name intrigued me as I myself have been known to mange tout. The crunchy hazelnuts nestled between long skinny haricots verts (as you might guess, I like calling them by their French name) and wide flat mangetout and threads of orange zest spoke to me. They said mangez moi, eat me. And so I did.
The hazelnuts were toasted and skinned and chopped. The haricots and mangetout were blanched in boiling water and shocked in ice water. The glistening green pods were drained and dried in a towel. The oranges were zested and juiced. The chives were sliced. Everything was thrown into a bowl with a few dashes of olive and nut oils. A sprinkle of salt, a grind of pepper, and that picture jumped off of page 36 and into my kitchen.
And then, my friends and I, nous avons mangé tout, we ate it all.
Haricots vert and mangetout with hazelnut and orange
This recipe is adapted from Ottolenghi – The Cookbook. There are a number of steps in the recipe, but they all are pretty quick and can be done in parallel if you plan ahead. While toasting the hazelnuts, blanch and shock the beans in separate batches (because the mangetout require only about a minute to cook). The nuts and beans should be ready around the same time. Right before serving, mix together the beans, zest and juice the orange over the bowl, add oils, salt and pepper, and adjust seasoning. Then sprinkle with chives and hazelnuts.
Hazelnut oil canbe difficult to find – the one I use is made in France by Phillipe Vigean – it's kosher and I found it at Zabar's in NY. La Tourangelle's hazelnut oil is more readily available but is not yet kosher. A good alternative is to try toasted almonds and almond oil. La Tourangelle's almond oil is excellent and, like most of their oils made in California, is kosher; the ones made in France are not certified. Make sure to store all nut oils in the refrigerator as they can go rancid quickly.
Serves 6-8
– 1 lb haricots verts (very thin French grean beans)
– 1 lb mangetout, i.e., sugersnap peas or snow peas (I used snow peas)
– 2 garlic cloves
– large handful of chives
– 2 oranges for zest and juice
– 1 C unskinned hazelnuts
– 4 T oilve oil
– 2-3 T hazelnut or other nut oil
– coarse sea salt and black pepper
Prepare. Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Trim the stalk ends from the the green beans and mangetout, but keep them separate. If you want to be really French, remove the tails from the green beans, but I like how they look. Finely chop the garlic. Roughly chop the chives. Zest and juice the oranges. If you don't have a zester, remove very thin layers of orange peel with a sharp knife, leaving behind all traces of white, and then slice them into long, skinny strips.
Toast. Scatter the hazelnuts on a cookie sheet and toast them for 7 – 10 minutes until you can smell them. Wrap them in a cloth towel so that they steam will loosen the papery skins. When they are cool, rub them in the towel to remove most of the skins. Roughly chop them.
Blanch. Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add salt and when the water returns to a boil, blanch the haricots for 4 minutes and then quickly fish them out and shock them in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. Bring the water to a boil again and blanch the mangetout for only 1 minute, and then shock them in another bowl of ice water. Drain the beans and let them dry.
Toss. Mix the beans together in a bowl. Add the orange juice, oils, and salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with orange zest and chopped hazelnuts.

The stylish Coopers Legacy chest is a tribute to the first Gerstner chests made in the early 1900's. Herman Gerstner, the father of company founder Harry Gerstner, was a cooper (barrel maker,) and made his living making whiskey barrels out of quarter-sawn white oak; the very same hardwood we use in building many of our chests today. In fact Harry constructed his first chests from the "offal" (excess lumber) from the cooperage.
Drawing inspiration from the quarter-sawn white oak whiskey barrels, today we use precision routers instead of a drawknife to cut each drawer front from a solid piece of hardwood, which will not lose its shape with time, and we still add 109 years of Gerstner quality, craftsmanship and heritage into each piece.
Sized for the desk or dresser, this versatile chest is perfect for a jewelry chest, dresser valet, or holding a precious collection.

I've never really been one for following the latest trend. Although I just HAD to have a pair of GUESS jeans in the eighth grade (which, thankfully, my mom bought for me, allowing me to survive junior high with minimal permanent damage to my self esteem).
Like clothing, food can be fashionable. For example, last year was apparently the year of the pomegranate. From POM juice to pomegranate molasses, suddenly everybody had to have pomegranate. I still remember my mom's mystification at this craze: "We've been eating pomegranates for as long as I can remember. And now they want to charge an arm and a leg for them because they have antioxidants."
I think a similar infatuation with unusual salad greens has taken hold. Gone are the days of iceberg; now it's chic to eat hip greens like Mache or wild arugula. I grew up eating arugula because we grew it in our garden; therefore, I never considered it special. It was just that spicy lettuce we added to our salads in summertime. Yet, over the last few years arugula, along with the wild and baby arugula varieties, have become hot. It's been featured in numerous cooking magazines, and many chefs laud its uses in everything from salads to pasta dishes and pizzas.
So, what's so "wild" about wild arugula? It's a slightly darker shade of green than regular arugula, has delicate fluted leaves, and packs a more intense flavor. Most chefs suggest eating wild arugula raw or just wilted to truly appreciate its flavor.
Eating freshly picked wild arugula is quite a sensory experience. First, you detect a spicy fragrance. Then, when you place a leaf in your mouth, you taste the slightest bitterness and heat. It's when you bite it though that things really get fun: it releases an explosion of flavor that can be best described as pungent or peppery. It's no wonder that most Europeans call it rocket (from the German Rauke).
We don't call it rocket in The States apparently because the Italians who immigrated to America called it rucola, which became Americanized as arugula. Indeed, arugula is typically associated with Italian cuisine, as it has been cultivated in that area since Roman antiquity.
The best part about cooking with wild arugula, however, is the praise you will receive from your guests. Whenever I have company, I almost always make Jamie Oliver's wild rocket pasta. Like everything Jamie cooks, it's delightfully easy to make and delicious to savor. In fact, both my mom and brother-in-law Jason have requested that I post about Jamie's wild rocket pasta, so here it is.
Wild arugula is most commonly found at farmers' markets and speciality organic markets. If it's not available to you and you've got a green thumb, you can grow some pretty easily. It likes cooler temps and apparently thrives in the Midwest region of the country. If all else fails, then use regular arugula; I promise that it will still be flavorful. Just be sure to use all of the freshest ingredients you can find for this pasta, and it will shine. Oh, and by the way, arugula is also high in antioxidants, so I guess you can expect to start paying a lot more for it; sorry Mom.
This is my submission for this week's Weekend Herb Blogging, the fantastically successful food blogging event created by the talented Kalyn of Kalyn's Kitchen, and hosted by me.
Wild Rocket (Wild Arugula) Pasta
The measurements may not be exactly the same as Jamie's, but I know he wouldn't mind, since he's all about a "handful of this" and a "dollop of that." So, adjust the amounts below to satisfy your taste. Also, simply omit the anchovies for a vegetarian version. I can attest that it's fabulous without them too.
Print recipe only here.
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 Tbsp olive oil
2 small cans of anchovies packed in olive oil
1-2 whole chilies, finely chopped (or as much heat as you can take!)
3 handfuls of wild arugula (or regular)
The zest and juice of 2 small lemons (or less if that is too tart for you)
8 ounces fettucine or thick spaghetti
About ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Additional wild arugula to add on top
2-3 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil for drizzling
While the pasta is cooking, prepare the wild arugula. Sauté the garlic in olive oil over medium heat. Just as it begins to turn golden, add the chili and anchovies. Lower the heat, and gently give it a couple of stirs. After a couple of minutes, the anchovies will start to melt; add the wild arugula, lemon juice and lemon zest at this point. Stir a couple of times, then turn off heat, so the arugula wilts but does not cook.
Once the pasta is cooked, add it to the pan with the arugula and toss. Add the Parmesan cheese, and toss to coat.
Divide the pasta among 4 plates; top each with a little more wild arugula, some good Parmesan cheese, and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
Await praise from your guests!
Do you like the darling tomato pictured above? Her name is Blush, and I'd like to thank my friend Alanna for creating her to promote farmers' markets.

Talking to Your Doctor About Heart Failure
You have a unique medical history. Therefore, it is essential to talk with your doctor about your personal risk factors and/or experience with heart failure. By talking openly and regularly with your doctor, you can take an active role in your care.
Here are some tips that will make it easier for you to talk to your doctor:
- Bring someone else with you. It helps to have another person hear what is said and think of questions to ask.
- Write out your questions ahead of time, so you don't forget them.
- Write down the answers you get, and make sure you understand what you are hearing. Ask for clarification, if necessary.
- Don't be afraid to ask your questions or ask where you can find more information about heart failure. You have a right to know.
The following are some suggested questions to discuss with your doctor, recommended by the American Heart Association:
- What is my diagnosis?
- Is the heart failure mild, moderate, or severe?
- Am I or is anyone in my family at risk for developing heart failure?
- What can I do to prevent heart failure?
- What are the treatment options for my condition?
- What side effects are caused by this treatment?
- What is likely to happen without treatment?
- Are there any alternative or complementary therapies that will help me?
What medications are available to me?
- Are there any medications, in particular, that would be of benefit to me?
- What are the side effects of these medications?
- What should be done if these side effects occur?
- Will these medications interact with other medications, over-the-counter products, or dietary or herbal supplements that I am already taking?
- What is the name of the medication? Is this the brand or generic name? Does it matter which one is used?
- What is the medication supposed to do?
- How and when should it be taken—and for how long?
- What foods, drinks, and other medication should be avoided while taking this medication?
- Is any written information available about the medication?
- If a certain medication is causing side effects that are difficult to deal with, is there some way to minimize those side effects? Is there another equally good medication available?
- What are some specific ways that daily life will change?
- Can I still work, play golf, have sex, do the laundry? Be sure to ask about any specific activity that you have in mind.
What strategies have other people found useful for motivating themselves to:
- Eat better?
- Exercise?
- Stop smoking?
- If I make these changes, how will they benefit me?
- Will these changes cure my heart failure?
- Should I see a specialist?
- What should we expect within the next few weeks, months, and years?
- Will I benefit from a support group? If so, can you recommend one?
- Will I need a cardiac rehabilitation program?
- What is the likely progression of the condition?
- What are the most important things we can do to manage this condition?

Diabetes is a disease characterized by excessive glucose in teh bloodstream. This is caused by either too little insulin produced by the body, or a person's cells do not respond properly to the insulin that is produced.
Since diabetes causes vascular and neurological problems, feet are especially vulnerable to side effects. These side effects can include:
Wearing shoes for diabetic foot pain that fit properly, examining your feet daily to note any changes or injuries, and consulting with your doctor frequently are the best ways to mitigate damage to your feet caused by Diabetes.

There is no longer a Scanning Electron Microscope at Noisebridge. We used to have one. The rest of this is historical. -JH 2016-03-07
The Scanning Electron Microscope at Noisebridge.
- "TV Mini-SEM (R)" by ISI (International Scientific Instruments)
- lives in the room that used to house the laser cutter
- is tended by Alan Rockefeller, Jeff Miller, Chris Murphy and Jim and the rest of the SEM mailing list
- If you release the vacuum without venting the pump hose, pump oil will flood the chamber and contaminate the entire mechanism, requiring 10 hours of cleanup.
- If you vent air into the column without powering down the filament, you'll probably destroy the filament ($100). The filament has a design lifetime of about 25 hours, depending on the current put through it. Adjust the specimen stage and other controls at low current, reserve higher currents for final photos.
- Mike Kan has warned that if anyone asks him anything about the SEM, he's going to move it to another hackerspace. Jeff Miller has a MinI-SEM of his own, and knows its ins and outs pretty well.
Startup procedures
- If the power cord is not already present, ask around or post to the list a few days prior to using the 'scope.
- See PDFs on vacuum start up and operators manual linked below.
Todo list
Short Term:
- Isolate vibration from external sources; buses, people, etc. Mostly finished. (2013-6-20)
- Figure out what to do about the person(s) now "occupying" the clean room which houses the SEM. (2013-6-20)
- Design/build/find a sputter coater so the SEM can be used as a useful tool as well as a curiosity.
- Create/obtain specimen stage clamp or spring to prevent specimen vibration. (2010-12-12)
- Obtain some sputter coated specimens. (2010-12-12)
Medium Term:
- Build a forepump line vibration isolator. (2013-6-20)
- Relocate or otherwise isolate the forepump. (2013-6-20)
- Replace most of the rubber tubing with metal tubing to reduce outgassing and pump-down times. (2013-6-20)
Long Term:
- Column liner needs to be replaced. Larry may be able to provide a clean liner. (2010-06-15) (update: Larry has taken column liner to his lab for cleaning)(update: column liner is now clean) (2013-6-20)
- Integrate the digital capture and control unit Jeff built for his own Mini-SEM into the unit. (2013-6-20)
- Test repair of X Stigmator circuit. Replaced 741 op amp. (completed, work began 2010-11-20, tested 2010-12-10)
- Adjust vertical overscan of CRT (completed 2010-12-12, including hack sawing access port to overscan potentiometers in the CRT module)
- Fix 2x magnification toggle switch (2010-12-12)
- Diagnose and repair barrel distortion and occlusion at low magnification (2010-12-12)
- Sew dust cover (2010-12-12). Sew/heat seam new plastic dust cover, evidently the previous dust cover was destroyed. (2013-6-20)
- Rubber grommet around edge of CRT potentiometer port needed.
- Replace forepump with a (hopefully larger) pump that has a ballast port.
- Buy/find some real vacuum valves, turn simple spool pieces to serve as adapters, and electro-pneumatically interlock the valves so that valve sequencing is fool-proof.
- Evaluate air-cooled diffusion pump as source of vibration and contamination. Consider Santovac fluid and/or water-cooled pump and/or thermoelectric cold cap.
- Consider replacing filament with LaB6 cathode for brighter, sharper images and lower long-term per hour operating costs.
Repair and Enhancement Notes
- Before repair, disable pumps and high voltage then put it into operation mode by placing a magnet on the operation relay.
- schematics framed behind SEM are to a similar, potentially slightly more modern model
- poorly designed wire harness may cause linear op amp and transistor on the J1 board of the power module to fail.
- camera mounting stage and bellows hood for slow-scan exposure. Proposed (2010-06-15), Completed by Mike, Miloh, and Chris (2010-11-06)
- CRT V. scan, V bias, H. frequency potentiometers are located on the underside of the CRT module.
- broken stigmator Y lock tab is in altoids tin in SEM kit box.
How to mitigate vibration:
- Measure and pinpoint vibration sources
- Dampen vibration from the rough pump-line by one of these methods: routing it through a concrete block and adding a hose extension, sandbag the existing line, or utilize water as a mass.
- Hang the column from the ceiling with bungee cord and platform
- Potentially relocate the microscope to the server room to diminish dust and increase distance from Mission St.
- Create spring clamping specimen slug to keep the specimen from moving.
- Made in Japan
- Delivered in September, 1975
- magnifies up to 20,000x
- outputs to a CRT
- non-digital, non-NTSC, non-PAL, analog output signal

Overall schematics for the TV MINI-SEM (Model: MRS-2-2 WN76-7-01). These schematics are for a model of SEM that is perhaps newer than than the SEM at Noisebridge. It is still an invaluable reference to the technician. Note: This schematic is a mosaic of 9 images stitched together with Hugin 2010.2.0. Some minor alignment issues exist in the content of the schematic. I think alignment can be guessed/interpreted accurately.

Don't get on Angelina Jolie's bad side. Why? Ask Brad Pitt's mother.
According to Star Magazine, the movie star is refusing to spend the holidays with her mother-in-law, Jane Pitt, after she made headlines earlier this year for her anti-gay comments. Furthermore, Jolie won't allow her kids to see their grandmother this Christmas either.
"As usual, Angie has no desire to spend her holidays in the Midwest, something Brad's mom, Jane, finds rude and insulting. But Angie couldn't care less," a source close to Brangelina told the magazine. The sourced added that Jolie's and Jane Pitt's political views are the source of the drama.
In July, Pitt's mother was thrown into the media spotlight after she wrote a letter to the Missouri newspaper the Springfield News-Leader and slammed marriage equality and President Barack Obama. The letter was a response to another opinion piece about Christians' right to refuse to vote for Mitt Romney because he is a Mormon.
Jane Pitt wrote, "any Christian should spend much time in prayer before refusing to vote for a family man with high morals, business experience, who is against abortion, and shares Christian conviction concerning homosexuality just because he is a Mormon." She also adds, "any Christian who does not vote or writes in a name is casting a vote for Romney's opponent, Barack Hussein Obama - a man who sat in Jeremiah Wright's church for years, did not hold a public ceremony to mark the National Day of Prayer, and is a liberal who supports the killing of unborn babies and same-sex marriage."
Her outburst must have embarrassed Brad, as he's been a longtime supporter of LGBT rights and has even donated $100,000 to fight Proposition 8 in 2008.
Star's source also said that Jolie and Jane Pitt "have such different opinions on everything. Brad's parents are extremely right-wing and religious. Angie has to bite her tongue to keep the peace." The friend went on to say that Jane Pitt has blamed Jolie for not seeing her grandchildren as often as she'd like.
"Visits to the Pitt home have been awkward for Angelina," the source said. "She says that not wanting to spend the holidays there isn't personal, but anyone would see it as a snub."

Many professional genealogists are located in and around major research centers. Here in Georgia, for instance, of the four Certified Genealogists listed on the Board for Certification of Genealogists' web site, three are located in the Greater Atlanta area, and one is just north of there in Jasper. Similarly, a search of researchers for hire through the Association of Professional Genealogists' web site gives a long list of researchers, most of whom live in or around the Metro Atlanta region.
When reading research guides, the general consensus seems to be this: use the larger repositories first, the local ones as a last resort.
I'm not sure why the vast majority of researchers feel this way. It has long been my experience that research on the local level is vastly superior to research in other places. Yes, there are many important collections held outside of local areas, but there are also many important and often overlooked records held locally.
One record set I've used recently here in Rabun County is the early Writ Records, bound volumes held at the local courthouse that describe early court actions (expanding upon the legal actions detailed in the corresponding minute books). These books have never been microfilmed; no copy exists outside of the original volumes held here, that I know of. Most researchers might overlook them as being genealogically insignificant, yet I have found, in the most cursory of searches, several instances of genealogical "proof" not found elsewhere.
In North Carolina, beginning researchers are told that most of the original county level records have been removed to the North Carolina State Archives in Raleigh. This is true, to an extent. Yes, many of the bound volumes of court records, including will books, have been moved, but there are many other records of significant genealogical and historical value remaining in the hands of local repositories. Of the three North Carolina counties in which I have conducted research over the past six months (Clay, Jackson, and Macon), I have found on the local level several unmicrofilmed record sets (either bound volumes or loose records) not found at the State Archives.
The hard truth of the matter is this: different record sets, documents, and collections are held at different locations. Concentrating all one's time at one repository, even a large one such as a state archives, is a short-sighted practice. While it is true that local researchers need to expand their searches into non-local repositories, it is equally true that non-local researchers will never have a full grasp of an area's records unless they are willing to visit that area's local repositories.

Working with a fee only financial advisor in Archer City, TX can be a turning point on your life whether you are starting your career or retiring from your job. In fact, the financial planner will help you set goals and then work on achieving them because they are experienced and knowledgeable about financial planning and management. The main hassle is getting the right financial planner! However if you are considerate and keen when choosing, you will end up with a reliable financial planner whom you can trust and confide in.
You should however understand that fee only financial advisors in Archer City, TX are paid differently and if you should therefore consider cost of the service because it can determine his or her affordability. Fee only planners Archer City, TX are paid by clients usually for the advice they offer unlike brokers who get their profits from commissions of the sales. A fee only advisor might be paid hourly, monthly, yearly or as per the percentage of the investments he or she has managed depending with your agreement. Working with fee only financial advisors in Archer City, TX is very beneficial for the following reasons:
They mainly focus on giving you advice
A Fee only is paid basically by the advice they offer. Therefore, their main aim is to help you make good decisions and investments with an aim of continued support even when you prosper. This is contrary to commission based commissioners because their main aim is to sell products so that they can get profits. Although they may advice you, they may try to convince you so that you can buy different products to help them get profits.
They are loyal
Most people are loyal to their bosses because they are the source of their revenue. This is a similar case to fee only planners. They are focused on helping you grow your business of financially so that you can be happy with their services and continue hiring the. Contrary, commission based advisors are loyal to the companies which pay them after they sell their products. Therefore, they will do everything they can to be loyal to them to avoid losing their commissions. If you hire a commission based advisor, you are not his or her boss but a customer!
They are professional
Most fee only planners in Archer City, TX have qualifications in their field to help them cope with the current affairs. Their vast knowledge and experience in financial planning helps them handle different financial problems presented to them by their clients. They usually have solutions to different problems because they have handled similar problems before. Hence, they are ideal in recommending specific investments or even insurance products because they have a wide network with other professionals.
Commission advisors or brokers are only limited to the products they sell or promote and they will never help you solve major financial problems because they are not equipped with the knowledge and experience needed. It is hard for a broker to recommend you to another company while he or she works for a company which can offer you similar products even though it is not what you want.
They involve you in decision making
Working with a professional is very beneficial because they involve you in decision making after discussing possible options. They give you their opinions, suggestions and then advice you on what you should do. Experience level and knowledge plays a great role in decision making because it determines their confidence and reliability. In most cases, it is difficult to make investment choices or financial decisions because they are risky. You will have to be very competent and skilful to avoid losing money while still trying to grow your business.
When making decision, it is always good to determine your financial capability to avoid straining or risking your money on an investment you cannot manage. This is another thing you will benefit from financial planners. Unlike brokers who will go all the way to convince you in buying whatever they are promoting, an advisor will consider your financial capability and then help you to make a rational decision. Even though a commission based advisor may charge you a lesser fee because they are getting additional profits from other companies, it is better to pay more and get professional advice. Most people make a mistake of choosing a broker because he or she is affordable only to lose a lot of money in the long run as a result of incompetence and unprofessionalism from the broker hired.
It is evident that working with a fee only financial advisor in Archer City, TX is the best option unlike hiring a broker. In addition, your financial development is determined by the type of financial advisor you've had. Therefore, if you've a professional and competent advisor, you will definitely have financial and business growth and vice versa.

Twins are 20-years old
By WILLIAM F. WEST
AYDLETT (AP) � Twins Olivia Davis and Daniel Davis blew out the candles on a birthday cake, but this was no ordinary gathering for the two who turned 20.
That was because the two, for the first time in their lives, met their biological mother, Denita Maddox of Elizabeth City.
"Our emotions right now haven't hit us yet," Maddox said at the Sept. 28 gathering, held at her mother's residence in Lower Currituck. "So, I'm overwhelmed."
Daniel Davis was at first speechless, but was all smiles after embracing Maddox in the driveway. "I feel like part of my life is now complete," he said.
Olivia Davis said, "It's one of those days you can't prepare for, but it's great."
Olivia Davis and Daniel Davis had long wanted to know the identity of their biological mother.
Their adoptive father, Earl Davis, spent a few years searching before hiring a private investigator in July. What resulted was Maddox receiving a call from Earl Davis last month.
Maddox said she believed a re-connection with the twins was going to occur someday, but that she thought the time would be after the twins began careers and began having their own children.
"I had no idea it would happen this soon, but when I received the phone call, first, I was in shock," Maddox said, noting that she cried.
Maddox and the twins began conversing with one another via the telephone, text messaging and the social networking site Facebook.
Earl Davis said he had been praying for the re-connection to occur. He gave praise to God.
"It has been an amazing journey," he said. "I didn't think it was going to ever happen."
Maddox, 47, said she is presently taking online classes from the University of Phoenix and is pursuing a bachelor's degree in health administration.
She recalled that, two decades ago, when she gave birth to the twins at Albemarle Hospital, she was neither financially nor mentally ready to raise the two.
She said that she did not know she was carrying any future offspring until two-thirds of the way through her pregnancy. She said that she had not been gaining any weight but that, after passing out while at work, medical personnel conducted a pregnancy test and discovered two heartbeats.
The daughter, after birth, was originally Kenya Barnard, and the son, after birth, was originally Kentral Barnard. The twins' last names were the same as Maddox's maiden name.
Maddox said that, compounding the situation, the twins' father had a job that kept him on the road and that she already had a 21-month-old son. Maddox had the 21-month-old by a different father, who is deceased.
The then-21-month-old, Novian Barnard, today is serving as a petty officer third class in the Navy, aboard the USS Bataan.
Maddox recalled that, two decades ago, she prayed about the situation and that she decided she did not want to struggle with the twins as well as a toddler.
Through the Children's Home Society of North Carolina, Maddox said that she chose from among seven profiles and that her case manager at the time helped her greatly in making sure she found the right family for the twins.
Maddox had kind words for Earl Davis and his wife, Crystal, in raising the twins.
"This is a really loving family and these kids have a really good heart," Maddox said.
Earl Davis, 65, has a commercial cleaning contract with Duke Raleigh Hospital. He previously worked for the N.C. Department of Corrections, in psychiatric nursing.
He said that Olivia Davis and Daniel Davis have been good children. "They know I don't play," he added.
He said that the twins, after graduating from Raleigh Christian Academy, chose to attend Liberty University in Lynchburg, Va. Liberty, founded by the late Rev. Jerry Falwell, is the world's largest evangelical Christian university.
Olivia Davis is studying sports management and is minoring in public relations. Daniel Davis is studying youth ministries.
Maddox said that the twins' biological father, Anthony Griffin, 52 and who lives in Atlanta, was unable to attend Saturday's gathering for medical reasons. She said that he will arrange his own get-together with the twins.
Saturday's gathering in Lower Currituck also seemed like a uniting of two families.
Crystal Davis, 52, said that what was occurring Saturday was a blessing because so many adopted children in the world are continuing to search for their biological parents. She said that "I'm just really thankful" that Olivia Davis and Daniel Davis were able to meet Maddox.
Maddox's mother, Lena Tremble, 63, said that she was ecstatic about meeting the twins because "I thought they were lost and I'd never see 'em again."
"This is giving our hearts a lot of joy by seeing them," Tremble said.
Tremble's 85-year-old mother, Alease Sylvester, was shocked. "I don't know what to say," Sylvester said. "I'm just thinking and looking � and just thank God we're all here."

To Live and Die for Christ. 1* Welcome anyone who is weak in faith,a but not for disputes over opinions.b 2One person believes that one may eat anything, while the weak person eats only vegetables.c 3The one who eats must not despise the one who abstains, and the one who abstains must not pass judgment on the one who eats; for God has welcomed him.d 4Who are you to pass judgment on someone else's servant? Before his own master he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Lord is able to make him stand.e 5[For] one person considers one day more important than another, while another person considers all days alike.f Let everyone be fully persuaded in his own mind.* 6Whoever observes the day, observes it for the Lord. Also whoever eats, eats for the Lord, since he gives thanks to God; while whoever abstains, abstains for the Lord and gives thanks to God. 7None of us lives for oneself, and no one dies for oneself. 8For if we live, we live for the Lord,* and if we die, we die for the Lord; so then, whether we live or die, we are the Lord's.g 9For this is why Christ died and came to life, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living.h 10Why then do you judge your brother? Or you, why do you look down on your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of God;i 11for it is written:
"As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bend before me,
and every tongue shall give praise to God."j
12So [then] each of us shall give an account of himself [to God].k
Consideration for the Weak Conscience. 13Then let us no longer judge one another, but rather resolve never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of a brother.l 14I know and am convinced in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself; still, it is unclean for someone who thinks it unclean.m 15If your brother is being hurt by what you eat, your conduct is no longer in accord with love. Do not because of your food destroy him for whom Christ died.n 16So do not let your good be reviled.o 17For the kingdom of God is not a matter of food and drink, but of righteousness, peace, and joy in the holy Spirit;p 18whoever serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by others. 19Let us* then pursue what leads to peace and to building up one another.q 20For the sake of food, do not destroy the work of God.r Everything is indeed clean, but it is wrong for anyone to become a stumbling block by eating; 21it is good not to eat meat or drink wine or do anything that causes your brother to stumble. 22Keep the faith [that] you have to yourself in the presence of God; blessed is the one who does not condemn himself for what he approves. 23s But whoever has doubts is condemned if he eats, because this is not from faith; for whatever is not from faith is sin.*
* [14:1–15:6] Since Christ spells termination of the law, which included observance of specific days and festivals as well as dietary instruction, the jettisoning of long-practiced customs was traumatic for many Christians brought up under the Mosaic code. Although Paul acknowledges that in principle no food is a source of moral contamination (Rom 14:14), he recommends that the consciences of Christians who are scrupulous in this regard be respected by other Christians (Rom 14:21). On the other hand, those who have scruples are not to sit in judgment on those who know that the gospel has liberated them from such ordinances (Rom 14:10). See 1 Cor 8; 10.
* [14:5] Since the problem to be overcome was humanity's perverted mind or judgment (Rom 1:28), Paul indicates that the mind of the Christian is now able to function with appropriate discrimination (cf. Rom 12:2).
* [14:8] The Lord: Jesus, our Master. The same Greek word, kyrios, was applied to both rulers and holders of slaves. Throughout the Letter to the Romans Paul emphasizes God's total claim on the believer; see note on Rom 1:1.
* [14:19] some manuscripts, versions, and church Fathers read, "We then pursue…"; cf. Rom 5:1.
* [14:23] Whatever is not from faith is sin: Paul does not mean that all the actions of unbelievers are sinful. He addresses himself to the question of intracommunity living. Sin in the singular is the dreadful power described in Rom 5:12–14.
b. [14:1] 15:1, 7; 1 Cor 9:22.
c. [14:2] Gn 1:29; 9:3; 1 Cor 8:1–13; 10:14–33.

Key features
The most advanced user interface on the market – stylable, resizable, GPU accelerated
Modern user interfaces must not only be easy and quick to use, but also versatile and
the whole visual appearance should inspire you. MUltraMaximizer features the
most advanced GUI engine on the market. It is still the first and only GUI engine, which
is freely resizable and stylable.
It also lets you choose between , or ,
whichever you like the most.
The plugin can look as an ancient vintage gear, if you
are working on old-school rock music. Or as super-modern futuristic device if you are
working on modern electronic music.
If your display doesn't have a high resolution, you can make the plugin smaller.
If the fonts are too small, you can make the plugin bigger and save your eyes.
All the graphics is accelerated using your GPU, graphical interface, providing
ultimately quick response and keep your CPU focused on the audio.
Unique visualisation engine with classic meters and time graphs
Your ears should always be the main judge, but a smart metering system can often be
a huge help. MUltraMaximizer provides the most advanced metering system out there.
The plugin can display the measurements of all relevant values using classic meters,
or it can even show them in time using the time graphs.
Everything is customisable as usual.
MUltraMaximizer lets you control multiple parameters using a single so-called multiparameter.
This may not only come handy for automation for example, but the multiparameters are very smart units
and you can use them to smartly morph between banks of settings for example. All in the name of creativity!
Check this video tutorial for information about
M/S, single channel, up to 8 channels surround processing…
MUltraMaximizer can handle not only and signals, but
also mid/side encoding for stereo field processing, separate left & right
channels, separate mid or side signal and up to 8 channels of audio.
It is perfect for audio production for music, movies, games…
Check this video tutorial for more
information about channels modes and mid/side processing.
Smart randomization
Being creative is sometimes complicated and one often needs an inspiration.
By clicking a single button you can walk through the billions of possible
settings and find the best one for you.
The smart randomization algorithm wisely selects good sounding combinations of parameters.
It can even randomize modulators for you.
And if that's too much, you can just hold ctrl and
MUltraMaximizer will just slightly modify existing settings.
Automatic gain compensation (AGC)
Most plugins change loudness of the output audio, which makes
browsing presets inconvenient, not mentioning randomization.
MUltraMaximizer includes automatic gain compensation, which quickly adapts
to current settings and ensures the output sounds as loud as the input.
This even protects you from thinking that something sounds better
in cases it is just louder.
Safety limiter
Some plugins can intensely increase gain when exposed to specific
audio materials. MUltraMaximizer provides a safety brickwall limiter, which
ensures the output stays below 0dB and prevents your equipment and your ears
from potential danger automatically.
Adjustable up-sampling 1x-16x
Digital audio provides very superior audio quality compared to ancient analog gear, but
there are problems too. The main problem is the aliasing, which may be noticeable,
when using nonlinear processes such as compression or saturation.
MUltraMaximizer includes both minimum-phase and high-quality linear-phase upsampling algorithms,
which avoids the aliasing.
Check this video tutorial for information about
MIDI controllers with MIDI learn
MUltraMaximizer contains a powerful MIDI processor, which listen to MIDI controllers and MIDI keyboard
and control any parameters realtime.
Check this video tutorial for information about MIDI.
64-bit processing and an unlimited sampling rate
MUltraMaximizer provides the maximum audio quality you can get. It uses 64-bit
audio processing and can handle any sampling rate.
It does not make much sense to go over 192kHz, but if you think it is a good idea,
the plugin can do that.
Extremely fast, optimized for newest AVX2 capable processors
Computers are now extremely fast, but the algorithms are more complex and projects bigger,
so we still need to use the processing power with care. MUltraMaximizer uses the fastest algorithms,
takes advantage of the newest processor capabilities, lets your GPU hangle the graphics,
and shares the resources with other MeldaProduction plugins.
The plugin is among the fastest on the market, yet it provides the best possible audio quality.
Global preset management and online preset exchange
MUltraMaximizer presets are carefully stored in a system database and you can quickly access them from
any project in any host. The plugin can automatically share your presets and download
presets of other users from our servers.
We are building a community and you can be a part of it!
Supports VST, VST3, AU and AAX interfaces on Windows & Mac, both 32-bit and 64-bit
MUltraMaximizer supports all major hosts on both platforms.
Check system requirements for information
about compatibility and installation.

same from our customers. Our software uses licence files to activate your software.

Yesterday, I was priviliged to be able to attend the Old Buncombe County Genealogical Society's annual Fall workshop. This year's speakers were archivists and librarians from Western North Carolina colleges and universities, with one speaker who holds an archivist position at both a college and a private high school. Each shared information on his or her institute's genealogical and historical holdings, particularly within the Special Collections. The speakers and their respective school were as follows:
1. Dr. Karen Paar, Mars Hill College, Mars Hill, Madison Co., NC
2. Dr. Helen Wykle, University of North Carolina, Asheville, Asheville, Buncombe Co., NC
3. Kathy Staley, Appalachian State University, Boone, Watauga Co., NC
4. Diana R. Sanderson, Warren Wilson College and Asheville School, Asheville
5. George Frizzell, Western Carolina University, Cullowhee, Jackson Co., NC
The collections described were remarkable; I will be making future posts on each institute.
The workshop itself was well-organized, and well-attended by a good group of researchers. It was held in the current OBCGS library, located on 128 Bingham Road in Asheville. Topics for next year's workshop are now being considered, and I look forward to attending it next September.

Mary D. Pretlow Anchor Branch
The Mary D. Pretlow Anchor Branch opened as the Ocean View Branch on July 21, 1923 on the second floor of the Ocean View Branch of the Trust Company of Norfolk building on A Avenue. In 1939, it was moved into a large room in Ocean View School, the moved to its present location in 1961 and was renamed for Mary Denson Pretlow, Norfolk Public Library's second library director.
The Pretlow Branch closed in February 2005 and reopened on April 1 at a temporary location so that a larger, regional or "anchor," library could be built on the site. Mary D. Pretlow Anchor Branch opened in 2008. The $10.8 million regional facility with 90 public computers and a huge children's area featured a 110-seat public meeting room and a wing for the Ocean View Station Museum. It was the city's first anchor branch library.
Miss Mary Denson Pretlow became the librarian of the Norfolk Public Library in 1917, when the library board still operated as a private corporation. She oversaw the reclassification of the nonfiction collection to conform to the Dewey Decimal system, assisted in collecting enough Virginiana to open the Sargeant Memorial Room (now the Sargeant Memorial Collection) in May 1927, and grew the library system from a central library with one branch to a central library with seven neighborhood branches. Miss Pretlow retired in 1947.
