Yale University professor taking students through strawberry fields and down Penny Lane
NEW HAVEN -- Scott Freiman asks his students to "lend me your ears" and he takes them on a trip through Strawberry Fields, down Penny Lane and into Abbey Road.
Using contemporary computers, vintage video and antique audio, Freiman hopes to teach Yale students some history along with music production techniques and, above all, "inspire their creativity."
The class, which spans two hours over 13 Wednesday afternoons, is "The Beatles in the Studio."
It comes as the world celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Fab Four's first released recording. That was Oct. 5, 1962, in England when "Love Me Do" and its flip side of "P.S. I Love You" came out on 45 rpm vinyl. Two years later, it found its way onto U.S. shores.
Freiman, a 51-year-old composer, engineer and music producer who graduated from Yale in 1984 with a B.S. in music and computer science, landed the classroom gig following an hourlong multi-media presentation for school officials and students in January.
His plans are to take his students on a "Magical Mystery Tour" of the Beatles, tracing their origins by looking at who influenced them during their musical evolution in songwriting and production techniques, then showing who they influenced before ending with their break-up and initial solo albums.
"So its pretty comprehensive," Freiman said during an interview prior to his Oct. 3 class. "There's a lot of material to get through and far too little time."
This unconventional class at an Ivy League school is not unusual, according to George Levesque, Yale's assistant dean of academic affairs. He said they've been part of the college seminar program's curriculum for 45 years.
"The course topics are wide-ranging, but they usually cover subjects not taught in a traditional academic department, and they are usually taught by instructors who are not traditional academics," Levesque said.
Freiman has three years of experience producing Beatles multi-media presentations and lectures, which he's shown across the country in schools and theaters and to corporate gatherings. But the first took place in his living room before some 40 friends.
Their enthusiasm convinced him to go bigger. He created a website, www.beatleslectures.com, and a brand name, "DeConstructing the Beatles." He's produced four shows: "Deconstructing Sgt. Pepper;" "Tomorrow Never Knows," which deconstructs the Beatles' Revolver album; "Looking Through a Glass Onion," which deconstructs the White Album; and "A Trip Through Strawberry Fields," which deconstructs three songs -- "Strawberry Fields Forever," "Penny Lane" and "A Day in the Life."
A fifth, deconstructing the early Beatles, is in the works.
In these multi-media presentations, Freiman explains the techniques and equipment used by the group, explores the background behind a song and discusses choices made and rejected in completing a record.
He said his class is more technical-oriented since the students have had a year of music theory and play an instrument.
"They must also work," he said.
Just this past Wednesday, they had to submit a five-to-10-page paper analyzing a Beatles song released between 1962-65 in terms of harmony, rhythm, production and lyrics. The paper also had to discuss the context in which the song was written.
"I play a lot of interesting music and rare tracks," Freiman said. "Also, the students are listening to non-Beatles music outside of class -- Hendrix, the Beach Boys, the Byrds ..."
For instance, he said McCartney's infatuation with Hendrix led to his including a chord sequence from Hendrix's "Hey Joe" into "A Day in the Life."
"Then Jimi Hendrix returns the favor by performing Sgt. Pepper live the day after the record comes out," Freiman said. "What I'm trying to show the students is that this was a real, real fertile time. ... Everyone was listening to everybody else. ... The Byrds heard something the Beatles did and then the Beatles heard something the Byrds did and Dylan heard both ..."
The influences involved more than just other groups' works.
Take the Beatles song "Back in the U.S.S.R." Freiman said it was composed on a dare by the Beach Boys' Mike Love to parody Chuck Berry's "Back in the U.S.A."
"One of the things I do in the classroom and in my talks is I play the Chuck Berry version and then I play "Back in the U.S.S.R." It's very funny to hear how Paul mimicked Berry's lyrics for the Soviet Union."
And who but a Beatles junkie like Freiman would know that an original line in "With a Little Help From My Friends" was "What would you do if I sang out of tune? Would you throw tomatoes at me?"
Freiman said Ringo was afraid the band would get pelted with tomatoes when that line was sung, so he asked Lennon and McCartney to change it. It became "Would you stand up and walk out on me?"
But above all, Freiman hopes to show through his class that the Beatles were "four guys who didn't read music, had no musical training and they became, especially Lennon and McCartney, a Rogers and Hammerstein -- a major songwriting force in popular music. How do you do that when you have no real background? ... It's real interesting so see how that all evolves."

Bladder exstrophy is an abnormality present at birth in which the bladder and associated structures are improperly formed. Rather than being its normal round shape, the bladder is flattened. The skin, muscle and pelvic bones joining the lower part of the abdomen do not form properly so the inside of the bladder is exposed outside the abdomen. There are associated deficiencies of the abdominal muscles and pelvic bones also.…more

Sometimes factors can occasionally interfere with bladder development, as is the case for children with cloacal exstrophy. This is the most severe birth defect in the exstrophy-epispadias complex. A child with this condition will have the bladder and a portion of the intestines, exposed outside the abdomen, with the bony pelvis open like a book.…more

Most of us are born with 2 ureters, the tube that drains the urine from each kidney into the bladder. But some babies are born with 2 ureters that drain a single kidney. In these cases, one ureter drains the upper part of the kidney and the second ureter drains the lower part of the kidney. As long as they both enter the bladder, this extra ureter is usually not a problem.…more

Most of us are born with two ureters, one from each kidney to drain urine into the bladder. Some (1 in 125 people), on the other hand, have two ureters draining a kidney. This is called "duplex anomaly" of the kidney. A "duplex anomaly" can be associated with a variety of conditions that can affect the kidney health. One of these conditions is referred to as "ureterocele."…more

(By Delegates Michael, Hartman, Caputo,
Romine and Williams)
[Introduced January 17, 2012; referred to the
Committee on Government Organization then the Judiciary.]
A BILL to amend and reenact §19-1A-4 of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, as amended, relating to permitting the Director of the Division of Forestry to enter into stewardship contracts with the United States Forest Service.
Be it enacted by the Legislature of West Virginia:
That §§19-1A-4 of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, as amended, be amended and reenacted to read as follows:
§19-1A-4. Additional duties of the Director of the Division of Forestry generally.
(a) The director shall:
(1) Develop, promote and advance the growth of the forest products industries of this state;
(2) Cooperate with educational institutions, development agencies, and private and public organizations to promote the expansion of the forest products industries of this state in local and global markets;
(3) Conduct research on marketing and developing forest products and forest products industries; conserving, managing, and utilizing the state's forest land and its multiple uses; and improving the forestry knowledge and practices of private landowners.
(4) Compile its findings and recommendations, and disseminate the results of its research to the public, the forest products industry, the Governor and the Legislature.
(b) The director has the power to carry out and effectuate the purposes of this article, article one-b of this chapter, and article three of chapter twenty of this code, including the power to:
(1) Accept and use gifts, donations or contributions from individuals, organizations or corporations, and to acquire by gift, lease or purchase real estate;
(2) Establish law enforcement practices and procedures to address the law enforcement requirements of the division; and
(3) To promulgate rules and regulations, subject to the provisions of chapter twenty-nine-a of this code; and
(4) Enter into stewardship end result contract projects with the United States Forest Service by written agreement or contract.
NOTE: The purpose of this bill is to permit the Division of Forestry to enter into stewardship contracts and agreements with the US Forest Service. Federal Law (Section 323 of P.L. 108-7) authorizes the US Forest Service to enter into stewardship end result contracting projects with other public or private entities to achieve land management goals for the national forests that also help meet local and rural community needs. Further, Section 323 of P.L. 108-7 permits the exchange of goods (i.e., forest projects) for services (i.e., on-the-ground conservation work).
Strike-throughs indicate language that would be stricken from the present law, and underscoring indicates new language that would be added.
This bill is recommended for passage in the 2012 Regular Session by the Forest Management Review Commission.

So Good Soba & Tempura Greatness
A little late I know…but better late than never… (and it is, technically, still February!)
The February 2011 Daring Cooks' challenge was hosted by Lisa of Blueberry Girl. She challenged Daring Cooks to make Hiyashi Soba and Tempura. She has various sources for her challenge including japanesefood.about.com, pinkbites.com, and itsybitsyfoodies.com.
Having never made soba noodles before, I was unsure of what to expect. In fact, although there are many steps in making cold soba and tempura…it is actually quite a simple dish. You start by boiling the soba noodles. I followed the directions on the package and let them cook up for 4 minutes, drained them and then plunged them into cold water to stop the cooking.
Next up was the broth for the soba…
Mentsuyu – Traditional dipping sauce:
2 cups basic vegetable stock
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup mirin (sweet rice wine)
Heat the mirin gently and then add in the soy sauce and vegetable stock. The Mentsuyu is typically made with Kombu Dashi, which I did not get my hands on soon enough, so I substituted vegetable stock and added just a bit of powdered miso soup broth for a little more flavor.
Vegetables, a beautiful thing! All the fresh ingredients for the tempura on the right and all the toppings for the cold soba in the upper right. Clockwise, starting at the tofu: tofu, edamame, nori, julienne of cucumber, green onions, sweet potatoes, broccoli, onions, carrots, mushrooms, and green beans! Time to make the tempura batter…
Tempura batter works best when it is very cold. Although it's a bit hard to tell…pictured above is a clear mixing bowl set atop some ice water in a metal mixing bowl.
1 egg yolk from a large egg
1 cup (240 ml) iced water (or
½ cup (120 ml) (70 gm) (2½ oz) plain (all-purpose) flour, plus extra for dredging
½ cup (120 ml) (70 gm) (2½ oz) cornflour (also called cornstarch)
½ teaspoon (2½ ml) (2½ gm) (0.09 oz) baking powder
oil, for deep-frying preferably vegetable
ice water bath, for the tempura batter (a larger bowl than what will be used for the tempura should be used. Fill the large bowl with ice and some water, set aside)
Place the iced water into a mixing bowl. Lightly beat the egg yolk and gradually pour into the iced water, stirring (preferably with chopsticks) and blending well.
Add flours and baking powder all at once, stroke a few times with chopsticks until the ingredients are loosely combined. The batter should be runny and lumpy. Place the bowl of batter in an ice water bath to keep it cold while you are frying the tempura. The batter as well as the vegetables and seafood have to be very cold. The temperature shock between the hot oil and the cold veggies help create a crispy tempura.
Heat the oil in a large pan or a wok. For vegetables, the oil should be between 320° and 345°F. You can test the oil by dropping a piece of batter into the hot oil. If it sinks a little bit and then immediately rises to the top, the oil is ready. I used an electric fondue pot, which has a variable temperature dial. I checked to make sure the oil was hot enough with a thermometer.
Start with the vegetables, such as sweet potatoes, which won't leave a strong odor in the oil. Dip them in a shallow bowl of flour to lightly coat them and then dip them into the batter. Slide them into the hot oil, deep-frying only a couple of pieces at a time so that the temperature of the oil does not drop.
Place finished tempura pieces on a wire rack so that excess oil can drip off. Continue frying the other items, frequently scooping out any bits of batter to keep the oil clean and prevent the oil (and the remaining tempura) from getting a burned flavor.
Serve immediately for the best flavor, but they can also be eaten cold.
A quick dipping sauce can be made with garlic paste, soy sauce and ponzu, and if you like it spicy, add a small dollop of Sriracha! We enjoyed the tempura with a crisp white wine with some acidity to it, which is always great with fried food.
We made sure to gobble all the tempura while it was still hot and crispy, so we saved the soba for our second course.
Besides the broth, there is an additional dipping sauce for the soba.
¾ cup green onions finely sliced
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
½ teaspoon granulated sugar
¼ teaspoon English mustard powder
1 tablespoon grape-seed oil or vegetable oil
1 tablespoon sesame oil
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste – roughly 1/3 a teaspoon of each
Shake all the ingredients together in a covered container. Once the salt has dissolved, add and shake in 2 tablespoons of water and season again if needed.
All the ingredients should be chilled or room temperature. To build your dish, pile noodles into a bowl. Spoon 1/4 to a 1/2 cup of the broth over the noodles, and then begin adding toppings per your tastes. I used julienned cucumber, nori strips, edamame, green onions and a dot of Sriracha. Serve with the dipping sauce on the side, grab noodles with chopsticks, dip into sauce, and then slurp it all up.

Draghi: 'Exceptional measures' may be neededAugust 29, 2012: 12:55 PM ET
European Central Bank President Mario Draghi defended the euro currency Wednesday and reiterated that "exceptional measures" are justified to stabilize financial markets.
In an op-ed published in German newsweekly Die Zeit, Draghi said the euro was launched as a "currency without a state," built on an "institutional framework" that left it vulnerable to crises.
Draghi went on to say that the the euro area needs a "new architecture" to complete the monetary union and resolve the region's long-running debt crisis.
But he said Europeans do not need to choose between abandoning the euro and sacrificing national sovereignty in a move toward a "United States of Europe." Instead, he advocated for a more pragmatic approach where policymakers "pool" sovereignty in some areas and strengthen democratic independence in others.
"It is clear that monetary union does entail a higher degree of joint decision-making," said Draghi. "But economic integration and political integration can develop in parallel."
Related: Everything you need to know about the situation in Europe
Draghi called for "true oversight" of national budgets. "The consequences of misguided fiscal policies in a monetary union are too severe to remain self-policed," he said. "We cannot afford a situation where some regions run permanently large deficits vis-a-vis others."
In addition, he said more needs to be done to increase economic competitiveness and create a centralized banking authority with the power to limit excessive risk-taking by banks.
Draghi singled out Germany, saying the eurozone's largest economy has benefited from the single currency and must do its part to support the move toward a stronger economic and monetary union.
"Germany needs to remain an anchor of a strong currency, at the centre of a zone of monetary stability and in a dynamic and competitive euro area economy," said Draghi.
Some German politicians have argued recently that Greece, the country at the center of the crisis, could exit the currency union without doing too much damage.
Draghi stressed that the ECB will always act within its mandate to maintain price stability. But he argued that it must sometimes go beyond conventional monetary policies to fulfill this mandate.
"When markets are fragmented or influenced by irrational fears, our monetary policy signals do not reach citizens evenly across the euro area," said Draghi. "We have to fix such blockages to ensure a single monetary policy and therefore price stability for all euro area citizens."
ECB officials are working on the details of a plan to buy short-term bonds issued by governments that formally request support from the eurozone bailout funds, which would require them to commit to certain conditions.
Related: Europe's unstable hammock
The goal is to ease the pressure on governments that are struggling to cut deficits and stimulate growth simultaneously, such as Spain and Italy.
Borrowing costs for both nations shot higher in July, but yields on Spanish and Italian bonds have eased since Draghi said late last month that the ECB would do "whatever it takes" to support the euro.
Draghi is widely expected to elaborate on the plan next week, when top ECB officials hold their monthly policy meeting.

Confidence is defined as the "belief or assurance in … the ability of someone or something to act in a proper, trustworthy or reliable manner." That could very well define how many governments, businesses and organizations around the world perceive ASTM standards. And with good reason.
For example, there are regulators all over the world who use ASTM standards not just because they are the best in their class, but also because those standards will not subject their governments to trade disputes. That is because ASTM International operates under World Trade Organization TBT1 principles for the development of international standards. In other words, because of the way they are developed, it is very unlikely that ASTM standards will create unnecessary barriers to trade. Many WTO member governments are so confident of the truth of this that they use ASTM standards in technical regulations with amazing regularity.
In 1994, the launch of the ASTM International website initiated a steady stream of sophisticated electronic tools - electronic versions of standards for ballot item preparation, committee agendas, minutes, balloting, a digital library, online collaboration and others too numerous to list here. That investment made the development of standards faster, more convenient and more accessible than ever before.
That same technology also increased the number of international technical experts who could develop standards in real time, and ASTM International standards are more universal now, more global in content and applicability, than ever before. Fifty percent of all sales of ASTM standards are outside the United States. More engineers, more lawmakers, more exporters and more consumers can count on the ASTM standard to deliver the world's best technology to their door. Most important, our international members know that the system that has included them will produce standards that are relevant to them.
We've learned from our research that more than half of the members participating in ASTM International's technical committees are employed in enterprises with 250 or fewer employees, i.e., small- and medium-sized businesses. For these companies, every decision and every investment in an employee's time is crucial. The number of SMEs represented within ASTM's ranks is an endorsement of their trust, a vote of confidence in a system and a product that has served them well.
In 2004, ASTM International's board of directors decided to fund the Interlaboratory Study Program, an initiative to help technical committees enhance the quality of ASTM test methods. Collaborating with volunteer laboratories, the ASTM ILS Program is equipped to identify potential samples, collect and analyze data, and produce a draft precision statement, among other things. At present, the ILS Program is working with more than 300 active studies, with 294 studies balloted and approved for inclusion in their corresponding ASTM test methods. Eighty different ASTM committees have registered precision studies in the ILS Program.
And, to leave no stone unturned, ASTM International's Proficiency Testing Program provides companies and their laboratories with a statistical quality assurance tool that enables them to compare, improve and maintain a high level of performance with other laboratories worldwide. Programs include the use of ASTM test methods for plastics, biofuels, metals, textiles and many others. At present, there are 50 different programs that use over 450 ASTM test methods. Fifty-one percent of the laboratories in the program are outside the United States, and overall, more than 4,300 units of participation in over 80 countries participate in the program each year.
We can be proud of our record. From ensuring that the ASTM International standard is the epitome of integrity in world markets, to the efficiency and modernity of the development process, to its diversity and inclusiveness, to the validation of test methods and laboratory practices, ASTM International is, and has always been, committed to excellence, the wellspring from which confidence flows.

ALPHA3: samme grundlæggende funktioner som ALPHA2
Udover at være en del af et intelligent indreguleringssystem, indeholder selve ALPHA3-pumpen de samme grundlæggende funktioner som ALPHA2 til selve pumpedriften af varmeanlægget:
- Sommerfunktion: pumpen motionerer sig selv en gang i døgnet, hvilket modvirker, at pumpen sætter sig fast ved længere perioder med stilstand
- Indbygget tørløbssikring: sikrer, at pumpen stopper, når der ikke er vand i pumpehuset. Det giver lang levetid; selv under meget vanskelige driftsbetingelser
- Antiblokering: vibrationer løsner aflejringer efter længere tids stilstand. Det giver problemfri drift og reducerer behovet for service
- AUTOADAPT: analyserer automatisk varmeanlægget, finder den optimale indstilling og justerer løbende driften efter ændringer i behovet
- Energieffektivitet: med sit lave energieffektivitetsindeks på 0,15 og et effektforbrug helt ned til 3 W kan husejere minimere deres el- og varmeforbrug betragteligt.
- 100 % betjening via smartphone/tablet
- Assist-guide og problemfri installation og drift
- Indbygget funktion til indregulering af radiator- og gulvvarmeanlæg

Frequently Asked Questions - ALPHA3-system
Are there subsidies for end users available for exchange of old pumps and hydraulic balancing
- Local legislation governs this. In Germany there is existing opportunity to receive subsidies for new build and renovations- Plans are pending for a major circulator replacement scheme in Germany though not voted upon in parliament yet.
Will the GO balance heat load estimation be accepted after 2016 (VdZ Verfahren A: specific heat load / Verfahren B: DIN EN 12831)? Is it planned to extend the app by DIN EN 12831 calculation?
- It is not in our current plans to extend GO Balance to cover DIN EN 12831. We will however continue to monitor the direction of German legislation during 2016.
Is hydraulic balancing with GO balance an officially accepted procedure (e.g. KfW)
- In Germany yes – this is in accordance with KfW and GO Balance even documents beyond the requirements in KfW.
When the LED color on ALPHA READER change from green to red, how long can I proceed balancing before I need to exchange battery?
- This depend on battery make and temperature. When AR turns off due to power shortage simply, just exchange the battery and continue the balancing. No data will be lost.
Can I use GO balance in systems with integrated pumps (exchange the pump in the boiler against A3)
- In principle, it is doable – however usually boilers encapsulate the pump and it will be difficult if not impossible to ensure radio transmission through the (metal) cabinet of the boiler.
How is the performance of the radiator calculated?
- The performance is calculated based on a log mean model that describes the power flow from the radiator based on the inlet temperature, the flow, and the nominal power. The inlet temperature is a user input to the App, the nominal power is the outcome of the radiator choice done in the App, and the flow is measured by the pump.
Explanation DeltaT?
- The delta temperature across the radiators is found from the difference between the supply and return temperature. The return temperature depends on the room temperature and the flow through the radiators and is calculated by the App depended on the user input values. This means that the DeltaT presented in the App approximates what will be obtained in the branch given the conditions of the house, and can be used for evaluating the radiator design.
Why is there a Zeroflow measurement?
- The zero flow measurement is necessary as the App needs to find out if there is a bypass or not in the boiler and, if there is a bypass flow, measure the size of the bypass flow.
Why is there a Baseflow measurement?
- The internal hydraulic resistance of the heating source (boiler, heat pump, etc.) is often considerable in size and is therefore necessary for calculating the pump pressure. The algorithm in that app that calculates the internal hydraulic resistance uses the measured base flow and therefore needs this base flow measurement, which is found by opening the two valves with the highest flow.
What if you have two radiators, but only one thermostat combined?
- Then they should be treated as ONE long radiator in the input fields. The reason for treating it as one big radiators is that the water through the valve affect the whole radiator, hence the flow reduction imposed by the balancing valve should be adjusted in accordance to the heat radiated from both radiators.
What to do in the case where there are more than one radiator and thermostatic valve in a room? (The designation thermostatic valve should be replaced by heating coil, radiator or similar)
- The App supports more radiators with thermostats in the same room. In this case, the App divides the needed heat power for the room between the radiators in accordance with the radiator sizes. Such that the lager radiators are expected to deliver a larger amount of the heat power compared to the smaller radiators.
Accuracy of target flow determination – how much does it count to do it?
- It is not possible to adjust to the exact target with many types of balancing valve system. Fortunately, it is not important to adjust to the exact valve just that the flow is inside the green area then the heating system will operate as intended.
Comparishment to other hydronic balancing-calculators
- The great benefit with the GO-Balance is that it utilizes measurements on the hydraulic parts of the heating system and thereby remove uncertainties in the calculations compared to traditional balancing tools.
Can I do a balancing with the ALPAH3 pump in lower speed II?
- The pump has to run I speed III to do the balancing. The reason for this is that the App reads the pump flow and pressure form the ALPHA3 pump and these readings has a higher precision when the pump runs at speed III.
Can I use GO balance in one-pipe-systems
- The GO-Balance is design for two-pipe system where the heating elements are radiators. This means that it cannot be used for one-pipe system.
What is the advantage to use GO balance instead of automatic valves (Heimeier Eclipse etc.)
- The automatic balancing valves will ensure that the flow in the given radiator branch is limited to the value set at the balancing valve. With automatic balancing valves, there are no need for the balancing part of GO-Balance. However, the App can be used for calculating the flow set-points for the automatic valves. The only drawback with automatic balancing valves is that they requires a fairly high difference pressure to work.
Can I use GO Balance when automatic valves (example Heimeier Eclipse) are installed
- With the automatic balancing valves, the maximum allowed flow in the radiator branches of the heating system is adjusted directly. The GO-Balance App can be used for calculating the flow set-points for the automatic valves, whereas the balancing part of the App is not design for this type of valves and can therefore not be used in this type of system.
Can I use GO balance in Tichelmann Systems
- The Tichelmann system is just a special type of two-pipe system. The GO-Balance works with two-pipe system heated with radiators, meaning that it can very well be used in a Tichelmann system.
Can I use GO balance in systems without pre-adjustable valves AND without return valves
- It is of cause not possible to balance a system without balancing valves. However, with GO-Balance it is possible to calculated, on which radiator branch a balancing valve should be installed to obtain a well-balanced system.
Can I use Go balance in systems with relay valve (Überströmventil). Do I have to consider anything there?
- Automatic bypass valves typically opens with increased pressure. The App is not designed for operating with active automatic bypass valves. Therefore, it is recommended that the automatic balancing valve is closed or adjusted to the highest possible opening pressure during the balancing routine. Note that when closing the automatic bypass valve the boiler is in risk for overheating, therefore it is very important that the boiler is switch off during the balance routine in this case.
Why do I NOT have to type in return temperature in GO Ballance to define Delta T
- The return temperature depends on the supply temperature, the room temperature, and the flow through the radiator. All these values are known in the App, and are used for calculating the actual return temperature that will be obtained for the radiator. The App uses the calculated return temperature and the supply temperature to calculate Delta T. The use of the calculated return temperature ensures the resulting Delta T is the one actually obtainable with the given system configuration.
When I use radiator type 4/"unknown radiatortype" (Sonstige) and type in the radiator power: do I have to type in the Normheizkörperleistung (75/65/20) or the radiator power related to the real (selected) flow temperature
- You use the nominal radiator power when operating under 50/20 conditions, i.e. with a mean radiator temperature 50°C above room temperature. Commonly listed in datasheets as "75/65/20" or "80/60/20" ratings. Has to be written as SI-value [W].
Why do I have to calibrate "Zero flow"? All valves are closed should mean no flow.
- The zero flow calibration is necessary as the App needs to find out if there is a bypass or not in the boiler, and if there is a bypass measure the size of the bypass flow.
Which radiator power data are embedded in GO Balance for the different types and radiator sizes
- The data used to estimate the nominal radiator power from measureable values, such as height and length, is attracted from datasheets from radiator manufacturers such as Riopanels, Stelrad, hg-tec, Yongkang Huand etc.. Data is only attracted for radiators whish fulfills the standards within EN 442-1.
If I lose the BLE signal of the ALPHA Reader/MI401 on mobile phone during balancing, can I just go back to an area with signal to proceed?
- Yes. You can put the phone down in the area where there is signal – and then return to the valve you are about to balance. Just turn on the sound on your phone, and the sounds will help to lead you to balance. The higher the tone, the closer you are at reaching the target flow for the specific valve. When the phone makes a repeated "ding, ding, ding" sound, you have reached the flow within the target margins of being balanced.
How can the principle of the calculation process of GO balance be explained (how does the app calculate the recommended flow).
- The recommended flow is calculated based on the expected power consumption in the room, which is provided by the use by the Watt pr square meter and the number of square meter of the room. The radiator power is matched to the room power by adjusting the design flow given the expected supply temperature. Finally, the design temperature is scaled to pressure obtained by the pump in speed III. After the valves are balanced the pump should be put into AutoAdapt that will adjust the pressure to obtain the desired design flow in all radiator branches.
Why is the calculated real flow (after balancing and after putting the pump in normal control mode like Autoadapt) not part of the report
- The thermostats continuously adjusts the real flow to obtain the desired room temperature. The flow adjusted during the balancing is the maximum allowed flow in the system and will only be obtained under extreme conditions. Therefore it does not make sense to show the real flow in the raport.
Is it possible to use Alpha Reader with other pumps than ALPHA3
- No. It is currently only the ALPHA3 that is able to "flash" data.

Paul Garrett: Boring and proud of it
When Charlottesville's clerk of the Circuit Court, Paul Garrett, was asked to sit on the Hot Seat, he insisted that he was boring and dull, and that The Hook might want to interview someone else. We thought he was being modest– until we saw his answers to our questions.
Okay, the Circuit Court clerk's job may not sound like the most scintillating elective office around. Yet, surprisingly, it turned into a bit of a contest briefly this spring when Garrett was challenged by a fellow Dem. He rallied the Democratic machine to overwhelmingly crush the opposition and win the party's nomination for the $91K-a-year, eight-year job that he's held for three terms.
With no Republican on the ballot, Garrett's a shoo-in for a fourth term.
His office in the basement of the Circuit Court screams "institutional." But maybe you don't want the person charged with preserving the city's records to be too colorful. In fact, it's a mystery how someone as taciturn as Garrett ended up in politics.
"It wasn't a matter of wanting to get into politics," he explains. "It was a matter of being asked if I would be interested in this position, and the political part was secondary." Garrett was already working as assistant city attorney. Before that, he was an Air Force attorney. "All my work has been in public service," he says.
Garrett details some of the frustrations of being the city's top paper pusher, of how attachments get lost and sometimes require more than one staple.
The clerk's job is not without peril. There's a swinging half door to get to Garrett's office, and if you aren't careful, "you can see stars," he warns. And occasionally there's a citizen upset and frustrated. "That's why we have deputy sheriffs," says Garrett.
Garrett is one of the few elected officials around who is a Charlottesville native. He remembers the city's bleaker days, when segregation was the norm.
"We had certain places we couldn't go as people of color because that was the law," he recalls. Even as a child, "I felt something wasn't right about it." He describes going to the movies and being shunted to a side ticket booth. Even if he was already there, a white customer would be taken care of first. "And then you could go up to a roped off balcony," he says ruefully.
Despite his insistence that he's "dull and boring," Garrett has a deep rumble of a laugh, even while insisting, "I can't think of anything interesting about me."
Could that really be true? Is Garrett really as boring as he says he is?
"I'll go to my refrigerator, take out one of those beers that's always there, and drink to that," replies Delegate Mitch Van Yahres.

BERWICK — The American Legion is seeking town resident's nominations for their upcoming 2013 Citizen and Business of the year awards. The chosen nominee will have the honor of being a part of the town's 300th Anniversary Celebration.
A deserving member of the community will be recognized on behalf of their selflessness and endless devotion toward the town. A candidate for nomination will have assisted the community during the past year; such as volunteered reading at schools and nonprofit organizations participation.
The celebration itself will be hosted on Saturday, April 27, at 6 p.m. in the Berwick Town Hall Auditorium and is sponsored by the Charles S. Hatch Post #79.
This event is made possible by the hard dedication and generosity of The American Legion and the Lady Auxiliary Club. Gracious volunteers do everything from the coordinating and mailing of invitations to the clean up.
Along with the Buffet dinner, recognition of Citizen of the Year and Business of the Year, Fireman of the Year and New Eagle Scouts will also be acknowledged.
John Couture's culinary department at Nobel High School will be catering the event. A generous meal will be provided to the more than 120 guests expected to attend. The students, under John's leadership will plan, prepare, cook and serve the entire meal.
The deadline for submitting nominations is January, 31.
" I want to get nominations for the citizens. They deserve some recognition," said Rom Vigue, the Community Chairmen last Friday. " We are well thought of in our community because we do things. We help our veterans reach their doctor appointments, we help in kindergarten classes, we like to participate anyway we can."
Nominations can be made under The American Legion's website, http://berwickmelegionpost79.org or emailed to Mr. Ron Vigue, firstname.lastname@example.com

Some time ago, we at Apologetics Press committed ourselves to producing more DVD resources for both adults and children, due to the fact that many Americans have upgraded to these ever-improving forms of electronic media. Accordingly, we began work on the development of the Pillars of Faith series for adults. The first two offerings in the series were released last year. The first pillar, Truth Be Told, sub-titled "A Seminar Exposing the Myth of Evolution," contains six live presentations of the cutting-edge information that Kyle Butt and Eric Lyons provide in the seminars that they conduct around the country. Designed to examine the Creation/Evolution controversy in light of reason and revelation, these sessions present evidence that refutes evolution, defends Creation, and explains how dinosaurs fit into the biblical framework.
The second pillar was modeled after A.P.'s outstanding book, Behold! The Lamb of God, which presents a well-documented, persuasive case for the historicity, deity, and uniqueness of Jesus Christ. This disc contains a total of six sessions of approximately 38 minutes each, with the following lesson titles: "The Historicity of Jesus," "The Uniqueness of Christ," "The Predicted Messiah," "The Resurrection of Christ," "Answering Christ's Critics," and "Was Jesus Really God?"
The third and final pillar has now been completed and is titled: "Is the Bible From God?" sub-titled "A Seminar that Examines the Inspiration and Reliability of the Bible." The six lessons are titled: "The Bible and Science," "The Bible and Prophecy," "The Bible and Archaeology," "Is the Bible Reliable?" "Scripture Cannot be Broken," and "Hearing God in the 21st Century." This DVD is sorely needed in a culture that has expanded its assault on the inspiration and authority of God's Word. The people of our country and the world desperately need to face the proof for the divine authenticity of the Bible.
The Pillars of Faith series are evangelistic tools that serve as an excellent means to reach friends, neighbors, and co-workers with truth that will affect their eternal destiny. These DVDs are extremely inexpensive when purchased in bulk quantities (see the center spread for pricing). Please secure your copies, view these presentations, and share them with the people in your life.
Also, please be advised that Apologetics Press recently set up an A.P. group page on the social-networking Web site Facebook.com. If you are a member of Facebook, we would like to invite you to join the group. A.P. group members are often the first to learn of A.P. news, including speaking engagements, book releases, and more. On our group page, you also can post comments and questions, stay in touch with A.P. staff, and meet hundreds of individuals interested in defending New Testament Christianity. We believe Facebook can be an excellent tool to enhance evangelistic efforts.

And thanks to my local buddy Jim, I now have an MTT for $31 which I intend to customize into a more believable vehicle for the size... Something of a Squad level transport, or even maybe just basically a "cargo truck" type of vehicle. I like the idea of a squad-size armored vehicle for the Separatists that would be sent into urban environments though. Smaller, easier to maneuver, maybe a little zippier. Maybe a little bit of a defense upward towards higher levels of buildings? I have some ideas anyway.Either way, for $31 it's tough to pass up any vehicle this large.
or even maybe just basically a "cargo truck" type of vehicle.
Yeah if I made a list of the "I want to......"'s I'd have one hell of a long list. I have a ton of things on the table all the time. Rarely much time to finish them. I've had my Turbo Tank torn apart since I bought it. I should put it back together till I'm finally ready, as I really just needed to see it apart first.
Can't beat it for $39.

It's berry season on the East End, and I couldn't be happier. I combine them into my morning cold cereal mix. Or, I simmer them slowly with a bit of sugar and cinnamon to a near puree, then spoon them over pound cake to satisfy my husband's sweet tooth. And when a celebratory meal is in the making, I think a mixed berry trifle or a summer berry pudding will fit the bill.
Long before the Europeans arrived in the New World, the native tribes of North America gathered a variety of wild sapphire-colored berries as a food staple. The Indians called these fruits "star berries," because of the star-shaped calyx on the top of each berry. But of course we know them as blueberries. My mouth waters for our local raspberries. I believe there is nothing sweeter. They are however a more perishable berry, so be sure to use them within a day or two of purchase if you plan to prepare the special berry deserts below. I purchase raspberries from an organic grower or a local sustainable farmer and never rinse these delicate beauties.
Just enjoy our fresh local berries as long as they last. Blueberries, by the way, freeze beautifully. That's my do-ahead mindset!
Avail yourself of the bountiful harvest of seasonal berries to prepare this do-ahead summer pudding.
Serves 10 to 12
15 slices good quality thin sliced white bread
1/3 to 1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons water
1 1/2 quarts mixed fresh berries, blueberries, raspberries and blackberries
Grated rind of 1 lemon
Fresh sprigs of mint for garnish
Vanilla bean ice cream or crème fraîche, optional
1. Remove crusts from the bread and cut them into triangles. Line the sides and bottom of a 2-quart stainless steel bowl and fit the slices neatly, one against the next, leaving no gaps between the slices. Reserve enough slices to cover the top.
2. Put the sugar, lemon juice and water in a non-reactive, enamel or stainless, saucepan and bring to the edge of a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Add the berries and grated lemon rind to the syrup and simmer uncovered, about 3 minutes. Let cool.
3. Carefully spoon the cooled fruit and their juice into the bread-lined bowl. Place additional bread slices over the top. Cover with plastic wrap and weight down with a heavy object in the refrigerator for a minimum of 24 hours or up to three days.
4. Just before serving, unmold by running a knife along the inside of the mold. Invert onto a serving plate. Arrange sprigs of mint around the base for presentation. Slice into wedges and serve with vanilla ice cream or dollops of crème fraîche, if desired.
This do-ahead summer trifle is a delicious way to serve up fresh summer berries.
Serve 8 to 10
For the lemon syrup
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
Grated rind of 1 lemon
3 tablespoons lemon juice
For the Trifle
1 pint each raspberries, blueberries and blackberries
1 1/4 cups heavy cream, whipped with 2 teaspoons confectioner's sugar
1 (12-ounce) pound cake
Lemon syrup
1/2 cup raspberry preserves
1. Combine lemon syrup ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil while stirring to dissolve the sugar. Adjust heat and simmer at a brisk surface bubble about 10 to 12 minutes until a light syrup results. Watch carefully then let cool.
2. Rinse the berries quickly under a spray of cool tap water. Let drain in a colander for several minutes, then gently spread out on paper towels to dry. Transfer berries to a bowl and reserve about 1 cup to garnish the trifle.
3. In a cold bowl with cold beaters whip the cream, gradually adding the sugar after cream is partially whipped. Continue whipping until firm peaks form. Be careful not to over beat.
4. To assemble trifle, cut pound cake into 1/2–inch slices. Arrange one-third slices in bottom of glass trifle bowl and sprinkle with 2 to 3 tablespoons of lemon syrup. Dollop one-third raspberry preserves over the cake, then spread to sides of bowl. Top with one-third mixed berries over the preserves then one-third of the whipped cream over the berries. Repeat this procedure two more times. Cover lightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for a minimum of three hours or even up to one day ahead. Garnish with dollops of cream and reserved berries.

When looking at this shoe for the first time, it is a possibility that you didn't fall head-over-heels in love with the Rocky duty oxford. And that is ok. There are some shoes that are meant to simply wow you and end up falling apart quickly. While, these Rocky TMC Postal Approved Duty Oxford shoes will impress you with its high-quality materials that were used during the construction process, the fit, and their overall level of comfort.
The upper has been built with full-grain leather. Some people hear the word "leather" and are instantly worried, don't be! This leather upper can easily be polished and is water-resistant.
To create an outstanding bond, between the upper and the (PU) sole, we have permanently fused the two together by a direct injection process.
You know that moment when you order a really great burger at your favorite restaurant, right as your waitress brings it over to you and you see that a pickle has been placed on the side of the plate you are instantaneously happy with your decision. That pickle represents that little extra something. Rocky has added a padded collar, and a padded leather tongue to the #0005101 duty oxford. These features work together to provide your feet with comfort (the burger), and a plus is that they will keep rocks and dirt out of your shoes (the pickle).
This oxford features a Rocky Airport footbed with Air Flow design. What does that do for you? You can think of it as a built in spa and air conditioning system for your feet. It gives you cushion with each step that you take, keeps you cool throughout your entire shift, and both of those features will leave your feet feeling very comfortable. You don't see that being offered in the sparkly high heels.
Normally when you're buying a duty oxford, you don't question if it will help to control: odor, mold, fungus, and mildew. Well, thankfully this duty oxford has the AEGIS Microbe Shield® in the Airport footbed covering. So, you don't have to think about it (or ever bring it up in a conversation) to be protected.
For support and torsion control, a non-metallic stabilizer has been built into the duty oxford.
A slip and oil resistant TMC Direct Attached TPU/PU outsole has been added to give you both stability and flexibility. These are a great oxford for you wear during your shift, and not have aching feet at the end of the day.
Even though the Rocky Women's TMC Postal Approved Duty Oxford may not be the first shoe to catch your eye, they are comfortable, will provide an excellent fit, and most importantly they will last!

Vatican Silent on John Paul II's Cause for Canonization
Despite reports that medical personnel at the Holy See have approved a new miracle, the postulator of the cause won't comment on the matter.
VATICAN CITY — The Vatican is remaining tight-lipped over recent reports that a miracle attributed to the intercession of Blessed Pope John Paul II has been given approval by a committee of Vatican doctors.
An official refused to be moved to offer comment by the reports, as was the case with the postulator of John Paul's cause. But if the news is true, the late Pope's cause will have advanced considerably, possibly paving the way for his canonization later this year.
In late April, the veteran Vatican watcher Andrea Tornielli of La Stampa reported that a Vatican panel of doctors had confirmed there was no medical explanation for a healing attributed to the intercession of John Paul II.
Although the process is being carried out in strict secrecy, Tornielli reported that, in January, the postulator of the cause, Msgr. Slawomir Oder, submitted a medical file containing details of the alleged miracle to the Congregation for the Causes of Saints for a preliminary opinion.
Two doctors of the Vatican who had already examined this new case both gave a favorable opinion, according to Tornielli's article. The file with medical records and testimonies was then officially discussed by a committee of seven doctors in April. The panel, presided over by Dr. Patrizio Polisca, the papal physician, also gave a favorable opinion.
The alleged miracle — which had to have taken place after John Paul II's beatification in May 2011 — must now be presented to a panel of theologians and cardinals to examine. If they agree with the doctors, the cause of Karol Wojtyla will be presented to Pope Francis to give his stamp of approval.
But if Tornielli's account is accurate, already the most important hurdle appears to have been overcome, as neither the theologians nor cardinals can make clinical evaluations of the case. This means the canonization may not be far away and could conceivably take place as soon as this autumn, possibly on the closest Sunday to his feast day on Oct. 22. The 35th anniversary of John Paul II's election also falls on Oct. 16.
WYD Announcement?
Some are even speculating Pope Francis might announce the date of canonization during World Youth Day in Rio de Janeiro in July, as the youth festivals were inaugurated during John Paul's pontificate.
However, it is worth noting that it took some four years from the partial recognition of the first miracle — that of French Sister Marie Simon Pierre, who was miraculously healed of Parkinson's — to John Paul II's beatification ceremony in 2011.
Msgr. Oder's office declined to comment when contacted by the Register May 2, simply asking to contact them "at a later date." A Vatican official, who has in the past voiced concern at the speed at which the cause is progressing, also said he had nothing to add at this stage, saying: "There are lots of things in life that can't be done and get done."
Another question mark over an early canonization is whether the significant amount of planning needed could be carried out in such a short space of time.
But the same concerns were flagged ahead of John Paul II's beatification, and yet all the arrangements were in place within just four months.
With no clear information forthcoming from the Vatican, the skeptics will continue to have their say, but this fact remains: Blessed John Paul II's cause for canonization continues apace.

Assassin's Creed III was, for me, an agonising paradox. It's both one of the best games of last year and also one of the most frustrating, one where a strong foundation of combat and exploration was undone by poor pacing and mission design.
You'd hope, then, that new singleplayer content for the game—released months after the main game's slightly divisive reception—would be a chance for Ubisoft to experiment a little.
In some ways, it is, but in others...this is still Assassin's Creed III, folks.
The Infamy is the first of three planned chapters in The Tyranny of George Washington, downloadable content for Assassin's Creed III that takes the form of a new singleplayer "campaign" of sorts. The game's premise is a unique one, at least for a series that normally takes its history a little more seriously, in that our hero finds himself in a comic-book like alternate reality, one where he never joined the Assassins, never saw his mother die and never hung out with the key players of the American Revolution. Instead, George Washington is now King, and in keeping with the comic-book tone, is a very bad man.
Because this campaign—or at least this first chapter—plays out from a Native American perspective, the scope of things has been narrowed extensively. Instead of giving you the entire world to play with, each chapter will only focus on a single game area. Later episodes will deal with the cities, but this one takes place entirely on the Frontier.
So, fresh start, smaller playground, it's a chance to fix some stuff, right? Not really. My main issue with Assassin's Creed III, and it's the reason it tears at my heart, is that it marries the joyous with the controller-snapping, often within seconds of each other. Great combat undone by haphazard and overly-strict mission design. A gorgeous, enormous world that's surprisingly empty. Fascinating people that you see through the lens of a lifeless main character.
Infamy doesn't change that. There's a mission early on where you need to flee a burning town. It's a stunning setting, the night sky twirling with embers, the buildings ablaze, the map littered with countless soldiers and NPCs engaged in a fight for their lives. You are right there, in that heavy, wordly way Assassin's Creed does so well. It's amazing. "Jump on a horse," you mother says. OK. You jump on a horse, ride 20 feet alongside her, only to hear her shout in frustration "hurry, get on a horse." If you're lucky, you'll even sometimes get a "mission about to end" warning pulse unless you ride around in circles a few times. Well. There goes that immersion.
The first chapter of this DLC is full of moments like that, where your experience is broken not by an outright, game-crashing bug or a fundamental failure of player awareness, but by little things. Inconsistent soldier AI on a stealth mission. A level spent chasing wolves on a drug trip which you'll play multiple times whether you want to or not. I just found myself constantly beating my head against a wall, wondering how can we be given so many amazing tools as players and then have them put to the test in the most frustrating ways?
On the bright side, the chapter's limited scope means some of the changes—perhaps made because the focus here is almost wholly on a short string of singleplayer missions—made to the game are for the better. If you got tired of trudging around the frontier on your way to mission markers, you'll be happy to know the markers themselves are now fast-travel points, especially since this entire chapter takes place with snow on the ground.
You might also love, like I did, your new "Ghost Dog" powers. Because in this DLC Connor isn't Connor, he's only Ratonhnhaké:ton, you get to do what the main game never allowed: run around as an adult Native American. Part of this involves drinking a special tea, which grants you two combat powers. The first directly replaces the "send in the Assassins" button, and unleashes three "spirit" wolves on your enemies. The second is much more radical.
It's a cloak, and the easiest comparison to make would be the invisibility powers from a game like Crysis, or Deus Ex. Turn it on and you become, to everything but dogs, invisible, the only catch being that it drains your health. It sounds game-breaking, and in truth it comes very close to doing just that, but the freedom it offers in engaging in stealth is worth it. The worst part of any Assassin's Creed game has always been forced-stealth missions. They've been something to dread. This cloak flips that on its head, empowering the player and turning the chapter's sole actual assassination mission into its highlight.
While the same frustrations I've had with the main game carry over, I'm still keen to see where this DLC takes us. With new powers, a bizarre storyline and two remaining chapters that are centred on urban areas, I'm even hoping—perhaps foolishly—that a tighter focus can bring back a little of the old Assassin's Creed magic that was missing from much of Assassin's Creed III.

Normally you wait weeks to open your bank statements. But for some reason, this time, you tore into it. The pages with their spreadsheets felt heavy in your fingers. And somehow, when you unfolded them, this bird also unfolded.
This is just one of the many incredible portraits of birds that Paula Swisher has drawn on her mail and other pieces of scrap paper. There is something stunning about seeing these birds' eyes looking out of the most mundane, throwaway artifacts we ever receive. It's as if your junk mail had suddenly become a portal fantasy. Visit Swisher's website to see the dozens of birds she's drawn like this, and be filled with wonder.

for the Sequim Gazette
An artist's studio is a magical place.
Strong hands mold a lump of clay into a delicate sculpture.
A plain white canvas soon is decorated with a beautiful watercolor painting.
With the click of a button, a photographer captures a moment in time forever.
Usually, an artist's studio is private. Sometimes it's even a little messy. During the 2011 Fifth annual self-guided Sequim Studio Tour, sponsored by Sequim Arts, more than two dozen artists will open their studios to the public and invite visitors to see art in the making.
Many of the artists will have ongoing demonstrations showing the "how's" and "why's" of their techniques and media. Each artist has a unique style and questions are encouraged.
Among those on tour are Charlotte Watts, a fine art and nature photographer located up Chicken Coop Road.
Cynthia Thomas will work with her mixed media 3-D metamorphic series dealing with the physical, emotional and spiritual connection humans have with nature.
The "Barn Sisterhood" — Susan Gansert Shaw, Lynne Armstrong and Mary Franchini — will show their work at Rock Hollow Farm. The trio meets regularly in the barn to share ideas, thoughts and pieces they're working on. They invite guests to visit the 10-acre farm and bring a picnic or snack to relax at one of the outdoor tables while listening to live guitar music.
"We each work very differently but respect each other and understand each other's artistic intent," said Gansert Shaw, a watercolor, pastel and mixed media painter.
Armstrong is a watercolor, oil and acrylic painter and Franchini specializes in collage and mixed media.
Wander up into the hills and you'll find Marlien K. Hennen, a cedar bark weaver for nearly a decade, at her Dancing Cedar Arts Studio & Gallery. Hennen finds most of her inspiration for art from the natural beauty of the Olympic Peninsula's flora and fauna, forest, mountains, rivers and sea coast.
"The incorporation of antlers, driftwood, conks, seashells and many other materials often influence the form a sculpture shall take," Hennen explained. "It is during the summer months when the sap is flowing that the process of collecting bark begins."
Gathering bark, Hennen continued, is very labor-intensive and slow but an important part of the process of creation.
The tour, according to Gansert Shaw, is as much about viewing artwork as it is education.
"We'll all be demonstrating and it's a great way to see where the artist is coming from," she said. "The diversity on this year's tour is exceptional and there's a lot of new talent."
The tour takes place July 15-17 in conjunction with the Sequim Lavender Festival and Sequim Lavender Farm Faire.
"We are jewelers and silversmiths, photographers and glass artists. We do bronze sculptures, metal work, watercolor paintings, woodworking and furniture, oil, collage and mixed media," Gansert Shaw said.
"We do woven cedar basketry, gourd creations, stone work and ceramics and we are looking forward to sharing our skills with you. We welcome you to our workshops."
More information is available online at www.sequimstudiotour.org. Brochures can be picked up at the Sequim-Dungeness Valley Chamber of Commerce, local galleries, businesses, inns and bed and breakfasts.
Artists sharing their work include:
1. Charlotte Watts 2. Elsbeth McCleod 3. Ed Crumley
4. John McBride 5. Iris Edey 6. Roberta Cooper
7. Cynthia Thomas 8. Renee Mullikin 9. Susan O'Brien
10. Sally Cays 11. Carrie Rodlend 12. Steve Portner
13. Susan Martin Spar 14. Chuck Stern 15. Terry Grasteit
16. Janine Hegy 17. Robert W. Stem 18. Susan Gansert Shaw
19. Mary Franchini 20. Lynne Armstrong 21. Marlien Hennen
22. Richard O'Connor 23. Patricia Gordon
A few of the artists will share studio space during the tour. For more information about a certain artist or to see examples of his or her work, go to www.sequimstudiotour.org and click on the artist's name on the right-hand side of the page.

Development board enclosures are devices used for the storage and protection of development boards. Development boards are a type of printed circuit board containing a microprocessor, a programming interface and a number of additional input and output components, usually push buttons and LEDs (light emitting diodes).
How do development board enclosures work?
Development board enclosures come in different sizes in order to hold and protect different types of boards. They are often molded out of plastic and have a number of impressions inside to accommodate the board's component parts. They tend to feature holes around the outside to allow for additional connections, such as a microSD slot.
Types of development board enclosures
Development board enclosures can be made from a range of different materials, depending on the level of protection you require. They can also be designed for use with specific development boards, and therefore may have different dimensions and varying cut outs depending on the equipment they are going to house.

For the first time the Pentagon will allow Android and iPhones into their secure network. The DoD plans on hiring a contractor to build an MDM system that is able to secure over 162,500 new Android and Apple devices, in addition the system could be expanded to support up to 262,500 devices by the end of the contract.
The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) released a request for a proposal detailing the DoD's need for an MDM solution that would act as a "traffic cop," to enforce policy for network end devices. The proposal also requests that the solution include Mobile Application Store (MAS) capabilities for electronic software distribution (ESD). The new MDM is expected to eventually manage all departments, including combatant commands, military services,DoD agencies and field activities, DISA, Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, National Reconnaissance Office and the National Security Agency.
While the new proposal may present a threat to the DoD's existing BlackBerry devices, RIM remains hopeful that it will maintain its government subscribers. Paul Lucier, vice president of government solutions for RIM, stated that the military left BlackBerry compatibility off its requirement list because it already has a system to manage BlackBerry devices.
Whatever solution the DoD selects its going to be expensive, and comprehensive, in addition it must be scalable. For RIM, they should be looking to push BES 10, as it would fit the needs of this new proposal.
