"We always assume we know what people need, but usually we don't have a clue," said Emily Carlson, coordinator for Union College's annual volunteer event, "Project Impact gives students an opportunity to see through the eyes of the community and better understand what they're needing." Last year, as assistant leader for Project Impact, Carlson delivered bagels to each site of the 50 sites where Union students were volunteering. In the middle of her journey, she spotted a homeless man. Thinking he could use a bite to eat, she stopped the car, grabbed a bag of bagels and handed it to him. She drove away feeling good about her kind deed. As she looked in her rear view mirror she watched in shock as the homeless man opened a nearby trashcan and dumped the contents of the bag. He proceeded to shove his personal belongings in the bag and walked off with a smile.

This year was Union Colleges tenth anniversary of supporting the American Heart Association by hosting an alternate day for the Heart Walk and raising funds. In the past, the money was raised simply by distributing pledge envelopes to employees. This year, LuAnn Davis, vice president for Advancement, decided to use the opportunity for her Institutional Development students to experience live, hands-on fundraising. I was one of those lucky students. We divided into groups and chose an audience to focus on. The groups included Union College faculty, staff and students, the Mid-America Union Conference, George Stone Elementary School, Helen Hyatt Elementary School, College View Academy and Christian Record Services.

On and off stage, the recent communications/public relations graduate has been a leader in Union College's theater program, UC Drama, for about five years. During that time, he's been involved in seven shows, including directing a production of his own, I Never Saw Another Butterfly, in the fall of 2008. At the beginning of the project, Dale didn't really know where to start. "I was freaking out," he said, "but Mark Robison gave me advice and I was able to tackle it." Robison, professor of English and the head of UC Drama, has guided many student directors through their first shows, and Dale learned a lot about how to stage a show from Robison, including how to organize a group of actors. "Getting everyone to show up for rehearsals was the most difficult part, but in the end, it was very rewarding," Dale said. "I almost cried at the standing ovation we got on opening night."

Summer Bay River Boy faces attack
Jul 03 2012
One of Home And Away's River Boys is apparently set to be brutally attacked and left for dead in a dramatic new storyline.
Heath, Brax or Casey will be set upon outside Angelo's by a gang before being left in a forest, Digital Spy reports via TV Week.
Steve Peacocke, who plays Brax, reckons the boys' dodgy dad Danny could have ordered the assault.
"You'd think with father and son that blood is thicker than water, but that's why Brax is so afraid of him: he knows Danny would get rid of him in a heartbeat," the soap star said.
"Maybe taking Brax out of the equation is his way of having a relationship with the boys. No-one knows how far Danny will go..."
Steve revealed that eldest son Brax gets frustrated when Danny, who has recently been released from prison, manages to persuade Heath and Casey that he's changed his ways.
"Danny is the one Brax is truly afraid of, because he's everything Brax could be but doesn't want to be," Steve added.
"It's completely frustrating for Brax, because he knows what this bloke is all about, yet neither of his brothers will take his word for it."

WEST KANDRIGA (East Godavari): This tiny village in East Godavari district was named `Indiramma Gramam' to mark the launching of the State Government's prestigious scheme `Indiramma Pathakam' by Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy on Saturday April 1st 2006. The scheme is intended to provide basic amenities to one-third of villages and one-third of wards in the urban areas.
As a matter of thanksgiving to the people of East Godavari district, who gave hospitality to Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy for more than a week when he was sick during his `padayatra' in the past, the Chief Minister launched the prestigious scheme at this village, which is 10 km from Kapileswarapuram mandal headquarters in East Godavari. Most of the State Government's schemes or Congress programmes had been launched from Chevella in Rangareddy district in the past.
Addressing a public meeting after the launching the scheme, Dr. Reddy said: "We are ready to beg or borrow to provide housing with all basic amenities for the people living below the poverty line in the next three years. We have decided to spend Rs. 9000 crores every year on this scheme.
Chief Minister holds review meeting:
Review meeting on the Indiramma housing project, conducted by Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy here on Tuesday decided that the pattern of construction of ground plus three floors under all the urban housing programmes should not be insisted upon and that ground plus two floors could be permitted wherever required.
The meeting decided that 20,019 houses sanctioned under the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM) for the Municipal Corporation of Hyderabad area would be grounded immediately and be completed by the end of this year. As many as 52,000 applications were received under the Rajiv Gruhakalpa Programme in MCH area, out of which bank clearance had been obtained for 14,395 cases so far.
Verification of all the applications would be taken up immediately and houses would be constructed for those found eligible along with bank clearance. The verification process would be completed by September 15, 2006.

A Cheap, Natural-Look Bedskirt
Next time you go to the hardware store, you might consider adding bedding to your shopping list! Especially if you have a full size bed:
Cotton painter's canvas (or drop cloth) comes in a 6-foot by 9-foot size that makes it perfect for a full size bedskirt without any prep work. On a full bed, it would have an approximately 10-inch overhang on all sides. With its unbleached, nubby cotton appearance, you'll have a chic, au naturel look for only about ten bucks.

Picture of the "after?"
There's no doubt a good reason for the absence of an 'after' photo...
A bedskirt is not a mere rectangle. It typically has split corners (for going around bedposts) and is tailored to 'fit' the bed.
This one would look like... a drop cloth thrown under a mattress. Nice, if that's the look you're going for.
Perhaps the poster meant to say bedspread, instead of bedskirt?
Well, it wouldn't take much to turn a dropcloth into a bedskirt with tailored corners. Try it with a piece of paper.
Look at that hemming on the dropcloth. Perfectly fine for a dropcloth, but do you actually want that thing in your bedroom? Seriously now. There's shabby chic, there's budget decor -- and then there's SLOPPY.
Yes!, drop cloth is great stuff, and I thought I was clever when the client wanted to occupy the space for the weekend. window shades not ready. Quickie, makeshift curtain rod made of wood with nails for straight pins. The drop cloth's color and texture was a hit. Drop cloth, the perfect solution. We went with it into finish.
Come on creative people - don't be so negative - iron some pleats in for the corners. With the right bedding and bedroom aesthetic, it could be a perfect solution.
I am currently using one as the bedskirt to my king-sized bed. Wanted a natural linen look but wasn't willing to spend $$$ to get it. I think it looks great. The corners tuck in easily.
So you say it would work for a king bed? I will try it!
I used one of these for a temporary false ceiling in our mudroom, it's just stapled up and I can just pull a corner down when I need to access the stuff that is stored in the rafters above!

I use dropcloth to cover my ugly (with good bones) sofa. I just decided to get another one or two and dye them so I can change it up a bit. no one ever guesses I'm using inexpensive dropcloth.
Those drop cloths make fabulous curtains too, with very little joining up to do if you have large windows - nearly 50% of the wall space in the living room of my 70's house. Drop cloths drape beautifully also.
I forgot to say, wash them before you start to sew as they will shrink.
Kim @ Yellow Brick Home made an awesome outdoor table cloth with one of these. She painted white stripes on it for a semi-nautical feel. It's just unbleached canvas and it has a great rustic feel to it, if you like that sort of look. I don't get why everyone is being so negative over the suggestion.
it's not too difficult to find a neutral bedskirt on sale for $10...!
I like dropcloths too, and I've used them for all sorts of things, but I don't see how those measurements work out. A standard full-size bed is 54x75 in., and 6x9 ft. is 72x108 in. Tell me how that works out to a 10" drop all the way around.
Just a few minutes ago I was staring at a washed dropcloth draped over a footstool trying to decide whether to have slipcovers made for two wingbacks. Funny to see this first thing on AT this evening. I have read that dropcloths wear like iron. While painting my dining room last month I was admiring the texture of the dropcloth covering the table and the floors.
Dropcloths come in different fabrics/colors/textures. The one that I like best has a white/grey earthy/flax texture. I would love to use linen, but the heavier grade is too pricey for me right now. Anyone else use dropcloths for slipcovers? Did the slubby texture become too prominent...too enticing to kids who like to pick at things?
I found this site to be inspirational too: http://missmustardseed.blogspot.com/2010/07/more-on-drop-cloths.html
I've used dropcloths for tailored slipcovers and drapes, among many other things. They're great, but they're just unbleached cotton twill.
If you can find the fabric by the yard instead, just buy the whole bolt and haggle down the price. It will be easier to work with. There can be a lot of waste if your project needs the dropcloths to be on-grain and it's a pain to take them apart and rehem them. Been there ...
Thanks Luna. I see your point.

I live in this neighborhood that has a really nice lake and walking paths and stuff. They are real uptight about the stuff you can do though.
No swimming, no diving, no animals in the water (but the ducks and fish are ok). Can only catch two fish per person per day. Catch and release. Closes at dusk. No alcohol or smoking. No glass. No fireworks, grills, or fire pits (I can give them this one). No portal shade structures…. Its the fucking desert and you didn't plant any fucking trees then you are gonna so don't bring shade? Fuck you….. No motor vehicles on trails(also given). No fishing from docks… No fishing from docks? Isn't that what a dock is for? (other than docking a boat).
Anyway. I want to vandalize the shit out of the lake and its structures with messages of love, peace, fun, and enjoying life. Not being bound by uptight assholes.

Dr. Thomas K. Haddad's Ratings
Dr. Haddad is an excellent Gastroenterologist. He is very patient and listened to what I had to say, and always presented me with choices rather than stating what I should or should not do. He thoroughly explained the pros and cons of different treatment options and backed it up with information from recent studies.

There's a rumor floating around that Apple might lower the price of TV shows to $1, which is a 50% discount over their current pricing structure for standard def shows. The news comes on the heels of the recently announced iPad, which could possibly facilitate an influx of TV and movie purchases from the iTunes store.
But why the rumor? Well, for one, many TV shows are now available for free online. Most if not all of these won't play on the iPad, so this could be seen as a significant hurdle for many to invest in the device. Lowering the price of the shows lowers the hurdle. Also, there are numerous outlets that provide more media for less of a cost, such as Netflix. For just $8.99/month you can score yourself a DVD to your home and unlimited streaming of more than 15,000 TV shows and movies, which mind you won't be compatible with the iPad.
So is a $1 TV show enough to get me to buy an iPad? Hells no. But give me an 'all you can eat monthly subcription' and Apple might have one more person signed up. Fortunately, another rumor emerged this week that Hulu is working on an iPad (hopefully this also means iPhone) compatible version of their website. One can only hope this is the case, but then again this is a rumor, and it's just about fact that Hulu will start charging for content as soon as this year.

Kean to Host Educating the Educators: The Impact of Turner Syndrome Conference
Kean University's College of Education and School of Psychology will present an educational conference, Educating the Educators: The Impact of Turner Syndrome in a School Setting, on Saturday, April 16. Registration will begin at 9:30 a.m. in the University Center, located on the university's campus at 1000 Morris Avenue in Union, N.J. There is a fee of $10, which includes lunch and refreshments.
This conference, designed for educators, school nurses, school psychologists and future educators and professionals, will focus on the educational implications of Turner Syndrome (TS), which occurs in approximately 1 in 2000 live female births. TS is characterized by a variety of physical implications (most commonly short stature) and development and learning issues (deficits in visuospatial organization, social cognition and math abilities).
According to Dr. Suzanne Bousquet, executive director of Kean's School of Psychology, over one-third of girls with TS are diagnosed in mid-childhood and adolescence – during their school years. "This conference will thus inform educators about the cognitive issues likely to have an impact in the classroom, prepare school psychologists to collaborate with teachers and parents to maximize educational outcomes, and inform school nurses for possible referral for diagnosis and/or clinical oversight," Bousquet said.
Dr. Paul H. Saenger, section chief and professor of Pediatric Endocrinology at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, will present the keynote address, entitled Early Diagnosis and Treatment of Patients with Turner Syndrome, at 10:30 a.m. in the University Center Little Theatre. Breakout informational sessions will then be held for educators, school nurses and school psychologists, as well as for families affected by TS. Patient families may register for the conference at www.turnersyndrome.org.
At the conclusion of the conference, all guests are invited to attend a free encore matinee performance of William Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, a Kean Players on Tour production, at 3 p.m. in the University Center Little Theatre.
The College of Education at Kean University will issue certificates of professional development. The Turner Syndrome Foundation (TSF), a 501C3 nonprofit organization comprised of volunteers, is partnering with the Kean University to help host the conference. Partial funding will also be provided by the Kean University Psychology Club and the APO Fraternity, a Kean University student theatre group.
Conference registration links will be available on the Kean University website at www.kean.edu and the Turner Syndrome Foundation website at www.TurnerSyndromeFoundation.org. For further information or to register, please contact Dr. Suzanne Bousquet at email@example.com.
Founded in 1855, Kean University has become one of the largest metropolitan institutions of higher education in the region, boasting a richly diverse student, faculty and staff population. While Kean continues to play a key role in the training of teachers, it is also a hub of educational, technological and cultural enrichment, offering more than 50 undergraduatedegrees and more than 45 options leading to a master's degree, doctorate, professional diploma and/or state certification(s). Five undergraduate colleges and the Nathan Weiss Graduate College now serve more than 15,000 students.

Has spring arrived? Hahahahahahahahaha. Lordy, I wish that weren't so bitterly funny. Um, no. We're down to about a foot of snow, though, with only 2-3' piles. Today we had ice, then rain, and after a couple of warmish days to come, we get an "arctic blast." Man, I need a perky dishtowel to get through all this gray and cold.
Great selections,
thanks for including my bird egg hand printed linen tea towel!
So fresh and pretty for spring:)

Spartan Race WOD Archive 5.14.12 to 5.20.12
This week the quotes of the day were particularly enjoyable. They all boil down, for the most part, as quotes about 'can' and 'do'.
Get your 'can do' attitude on and do these WODs. You can.
If the wind will not serve,
take to the oars.
Destitutus ventis, remos adhibe
– Latin Proverb
Mondays are often so crazy workouts get shelved. Let's put an end to this. Here's a WOD that can be fit into any random 30 minutes.
Pick your three favorite body weight exercises (for example: push-ups, burpees, lunges). Focus 10 minutes on each trying to max out reps while preserving good form. Can be done as a straight 30 minutes or 3 separate 10 minute workouts. Just get it done!
WOD for 5-15-12
Take calculated risks.
That is quite different from being rash.
– George S. Patton
CLICK HERE to check out our blog which is hosting tonight's WOD and brought to you by Gaspari Nutrition.
They can because they think they can.
"Lumberjack 20″
20 Deadlifts (275/185)
Run 400m
20 KB swings (2pood/1pood)
Run 400m
20 Overhead Squats (115/75)

20 Pullups (Chest to Bar)

Make sure you do BOTH a solid warm up and cool down.
Need a video to help you out with this one? CLICK HERE for a video created just for you by CrossFit Dilworth,located in Charlotte, NC.
You can't plow a field by turning it over in your mind.
Stop thinking about doing a workout each day. At some point you have to stop making plans, and start traveling. Today is the perfect day to take on the WOD as part of your daily routine.
Go for a 1-hour moderately paced run. Keep first 15 minutes dedicated to warming up – gradually bringing yourself up in pace. At minute 15, however, start pounding out 10-30 burpees each mile you do, or instead, do 10-30 burpees at regularly scheduled intervals (every 5 to 10 minutes). Finish run strong with 10-30 burpees. Make sure you do a cool down routine that includes stretching.
Adversity causes some men to break; others to break records.
-William A. Ward
Hill Repeats (aka Adversity Training) are a great way to make quality fitness gains in a compressed amount of time.
1-2 mile jog/run warm up. Be sure to do some accellerations towards end of warm up that take you to high intensity very briefly. A solid warm-up is vital for this workout.
Find steep section of Earth.
Explosive run 30-60 seconds going up.
2 minutes recover walk on way back down.
(advanced athletes can do with additional weight such as sand bag or weighted vest)
For our flatland spartans, please consider experimenting on variations of this WOD with stairs, bleachers, stair climbers. Or drag a tire with a rope. That always works, too.
Repeat Hill Inteveral 4-12 times before going into light jog for cool down. Stretch.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
- William James
If you want to be a Spartan Race finisher you better start training like one. Just sayin'.
Tomorrow go for distance. Running or hiking. Your choice.
Runners: shoot for a 'conversation pace' because this should be your longest run of the week. One hour minimum.
Hikers: go long. 3-4 hours minimum. Maximum? Try and be back by Monday morning…

WOD for 5-20-12
Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you.
- Thomas Jefferson
Here's a workout to just DO. You don't need any fancy gear or a whole lot of time. Just commit to doing this workout and define your current fitness with the results.
This is a good workout to do periodically to bookmark your progress. Never get discouraged, only get inspired to do better next time. You succeed by trying the WOD – most people won't even get that far.
Warm Up: Jump rope, do jumping jacks, and throw down some burpees - 10 minutes.
2 minutes push ups
2 minutes crunches
max pull ups
2 minutes crunches

Graduate Requirements
To be considered for admission, a candidate must have a bachelor's degree from an accredited institution and must show promise of ability to engage in advanced work and evidence of adequate preparation to pursue graduate study in the field chosen. The minimum standard for unconditional admission to the graduate school is a graduation grade point average of 3.00 (B) or the equivalent. An applicant not meeting these requirements should take the aptitude tests section of the Graduate Record Examination (GRE). Individual departments may set higher grade point requirements and may require the submission of additional evidence of academic performance, such as GRE scores.
A minimal score of 550 on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) paper version/PBT or a minimal score of 213 on the TOEFL computer-based version/CBT is required for admission to the graduate school for applicants whose native language is not English. Departments may set higher requirements. Applicants in the Indianapolis area may substitute the IUPUI English as a Second Language (ESL) Placement Examination for the TOEFL. See the English for Academic Purposes web site for additional information. Information about this test is also available from the Office of International Affairs online at http://international.iupui.edu/.
Application should normally be made at least six months before the beginning of the session in which the student wishes to enroll. However, please refer to the specific academic program for admission deadlines. Late applications may also be accepted. Applicants will be advised of the action taken on their applications by the Dean of the Purdue University Graduate School. Applications to the Department of Earth Sciences will be considered by the Department of Earth Sciences and forwarded to the IUPUI office of the Indiana University Graduate School; applicants will be notified of the results by the graduate advisor in the Department of Earth Sciences. Applications to the Biostatistics Ph.D. Program will be considered by the Department of Mathematical Sciences and forwarded to the IUPUI office of the Indiana University Graduate School; applicants will be notified of the results by the graduate advisor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences.
Qualified students may be authorized to pursue a Ph.D. degree at IUPUI in areas where a program has been arranged with Purdue-West Lafayette, Indiana University-Bloomington, or the Indiana University School of Medicine. For further details, contact the department in which study is desired.
Applicants should be aware that, under Indiana law, criminal convictions might result in ineligibility for admission to certain programs at IUPUI. For the School of Science, criminal convictions may also result in ineligibility for enrollment in certain courses or participation in certain projects. Questions regarding school policy on such matters should be addressed to the Associate Dean for Research and Graduate Affairs.
Financial support in the form of teaching and research assistantships is available through the departments of the School of Science. Students who want to be considered for IUPUI fellowships must submit GRE (verbal/quantitative/analytic) scores. GRE Area examination scores may be submitted for consideration. Visit the School of Science web site for more information.
Degree-Seeking Graduate Student Application
Application to all graduate programs must be made by electronic applications accessible through the School of Science web site. Application fees are submitted online at the time of application. If necessary, paper applications may be obtained from each department.
Applicants must submit complete, official transcripts of all previous college and university studies and three letters of academic reference for evaluation by the major department.

Instructor Information
ACS Account
Instructors teaching in the ACS computer labs at Edmonds Community College are entitled to an ACS account in addition to your administrative (R230_admin) account. This account will provide you access to a file share on the ACS file server to store your class files, and you will also be able to utilize other file shares to publish class resources to your students. The ACS account does not 'link' with your administrative account in any way. If you would like an ACS account please have your department secretary email firstname.lastname@example.com with your full name and we will be happy to create an ACS account for you.
Instructors Classroom Software Request
Instructors are asked to submit a list of software their classes require each quarter. The following table lists the deadline dates for each quarter of the current academic year:
|Academic Year
|Apr. 19, 2013
As we become aware of the dates for upcoming academic periods we will fill the data into this table.
Please use the following link to go to the log in page of the web based Software Request Form: Instructor Software Request Login. You will be asked for your r230_admin or Windows user name and password to login. You will be able to review your previous classes software lists, make changes as necessary and submit the updated form from this webpage.
Departments and instructors are asked to contact Mike Yocom directly with questions or concerns regarding their classroom computer software at 425.640.1306 or send an e-mail. If you are using a web based e-mail client you may not be able to use this link. If you must enter the address yourself you may cut and paste it from here: email@example.com.
Please bear this in mind, unlike your home computer, ACS is responsible to our community to get many disparate software applications running on our computers together. In some cases this involves installing and testing software, uninstalling the software, modifying one or more settings on our computers, reinstalling the software and trying again. The process can take multiple attempts all of which take time. If you can turn in your request early, please do so. Due to campus time constraints, we may not be able to accommodate late requests.
R230_admin Account
Instructors who wish to log into an ACS computer with their R230_admin credentials will need to type this prefix to their username: R230_admin\
You will be unable to print and will not have access to your personal files if you are logging into ACS computers with your R230 credentials. If you will need to use Microsoft Internet Explorer, please review the instructions in R230 users setting proxy.
Student Accounts
All currently enrolled students receive an ACS account. The account gives them access to the local ACS computers and the student wireless network during the quarter. The account also gives students access to eLearning classes during the quarter, quarter breaks, and one year after their last class at EdCC. Student first time logon handouts are available online.
If a student is having trouble logging on to a computer day or night, please send them to the first floor of Alderwood Hall with any valid picture ID for a password reset or unlock. If a student is having issues with viewing classes in Canvas, please contact the TRC at 425.640.1010.
Account Resources
ACS lab computers will log on to ACS by default. When you login with your ACS account the S: drive will automatically map to the logged in users file share on the ACS file server. You will have your own folder on S: drive where you can save files that are only accessible by you. Similarly, the S: Drive for students will map to student folders on the file server.
The H: Drive will map to the ACS application server, where some applications such as Gregg Document Processing are located. Both Instructors and students have access to this folder, but should not publish any files here.
The Y: Drive will also map to the ACS application server, where instructors can publish class resources to the proper class folder. Students will only be able to view the files or copy them to their folder and will not be able to publish to this directory. The format for folders under the Y: Drive is ap_data\dept_name\class_name. For instance, if you want to publish files for CIS100, you would request a folder under Y:\ap_data\CIS\CIS100 and could publish everything under there. Please view the following link to review the new structure and guidelines for posting class materials to the Y: drive: Apdata Structure. Please do not hesitate to ask if you have any questions.
Documents should only be stored in the above areas or on removable media such as a flash drive. The local hard drives are cleaned out randomly, and all non-lab installed files on the local drive are deleted. Instructor information stored on Apdata and instructor and student data stored on the S: drive is backed up weekly. At the end of each quarter all data is backed up and a copy is stored off campus in a safe deposit box. In the event of a catastrophe that results in the damage of servers and backups on campus the instructor and student data stored off campus will be the most recent data available.
Lab Use
Reserved Class Time: Reserved time for classes is indicated in shaded areas on the schedules posted on the bulletin boards in Alderwood Hall or outside of each lab. Lab Assistants will inform students to leave the room 10 minutes before the next class is scheduled to begin if they are not in the scheduled class. If you would like to reserve a computer lab please contact Jessica Wallace, stating your class number, class time, and the days being requested.

Simple Isolation System
Natural Frequency
f n = 3.13 (K/W) 1/2 (1)
Where mass m = W/g, and
g = acceleration of gravity = 386 in/sec 2
c c = 78.96 (mf n 2 ) (2)
Forced Vibration, Transmissibility and Resonance
Figure 42.2 is plotted as a function of forcing frequency ratio f/f n and critical damping ratio c/c c . If external vibration is applied at a frequency which coincides with the Natural Frequency; i.e., (f/f n )= 1 , a condition of Resonance occurs. At resonance the system will experience very large potentially damaging magnification of the disturbing forces.
The maximum Transmissibility T max at resonance is commonly referred to as the Q of the system and is approximately related to Critical Damping, as follows:
T max = Q = 1/2 c c (4)
Dashpot or damping force is proportional to velocity. The forces due to high damping are desirable at resonance to oppose damaging magnification, but less desirable at high frequencies because this tends to negate vibration attenuation. This is evident in Equation (3).
Isolation Efficiency
Isolation Efficiency E in percent transmission is related to Transmissibility as:
and is the percentage of the vibration isolated from the payload. It should be observed in Equation (3) and Figure 42.2, that in order to achieve the best isolation efficiency the isolators natural frequency should be very low. This is the basic philosophy of VIBRAPLANE Isolation.
Center of Gravity (cg)
The Center of Gravity is the point in an object where an external applied force produces displacement but no rotation. Typically the center of gravity will be located near the largest concentration of mass in the object and may be located by computation or experimental means. Equipment cg height and geometry are very important for considerations of stability and rocking when using soft supports to achieve vibration isolation. For best stable results, KSI recommends the cg height should not exceed 25% of the shortest span between supports.
Air Spring Stiffness and Natural Frequency
VIBRAPLANE isolation systems utilize the properties of compressed air to provide the uniquely low stiffness properties essential for the high efficiency broad frequency band isolation essential for high technology equipment. The Air Spring Stiffness K in lbs/in. is a function of absolute pressure P in psi, area A in sq. in., and volume V in cu. in., as follows:
Combining Equations (1) and (6), the simple Air System Natural Frequency is:
f A = 3.13 (A / V) 1/2 (7)
It is basic to note in Equation (7) that increasing the air volume of the air spring results in a lower system natural frequency which is necessary for high isolation efficiently.

Did Vladimir Putin Bait a Trap for the United States in Damascus?
Why the Russian president has every reason to cross Barack Obama's "red line" on Syria, and elsewhere in the Middle East
It is also worth noting that the nerve-gas attack in Syria is simply the latest and biggest in a series of incidents in which Putin has chosen to publicly confront the United States and stick his finger in Obama's eye. First, Putin chose to give NSA leaker Edward Snowden refuge in Moscow's airport and then in Moscow itself—a decision that led Obama to cancel his planned summit meeting with the Russian president, which presumably was a consequence that Putin both predicted and welcomed. Second, Putin decided to criminalize homosexuality at the Sochi Olympics—a thumb in the eye to an American government that prided itself on its acceptance of gay marriage. The U.S. press treated each of these incidents as indications that Putin is a difficult, ornery person—when in retrospect, they appear to be part of an ongoing global campaign to put Moscow on one side and Washington on the other. Applying the wedge tactics in the global arena that were so successful in Putin's use of the Pussy Riot incident at home was an interesting novelty, it seemed, but nothing more. What was missing was any sense of why Putin would suddenly find it to Russia's advantage to stoke conflict with Washington.
Evidence for why Putin might have gambled on America backing down is again easy to find. Obama made it plain that his only real interest in the Middle East was to get American troops out of the region as fast as possible. His famous Cairo speech, which so excited global commentators, pro and con, was a rhetorical signal that America was taking a new direction after eight years of war. The direction Obama clearly favored was "out"—out of Iraq, out of Afghanistan, out of the business of backing Hosni Mubarak and other regional dictators, out of attempts to overthrow or destabilize the regime in Iran, out of any real effort to create a Palestinian state or force Israel to leave the West Bank.
For Washington policymakers on both sides of the aisle, Obama's new direction for Mideast policy made plenty of sense. The American economy was weakened by a decade of wars, the American people were tired, and the Pentagon was broke. Attempts at using limited force in Libya had created a mess that made even reasonable people long for the days of Muammar al-Qaddafi. Egypt, where Obama hoped for an accommodation with the Muslim Brotherhood, slid into economic chaos and hopeless misrule. On the plus side, what was left of al-Qaida seemed more or less under control—and there was also the surprising news that, thanks to improved technology for extracting oil from shale deposits, America was on track to become the world's largest oil producer by 2017. So, why bother with the Middle East?
The president's Syria policy was therefore an entirely coherent example of his larger approach to the region: Let Assad's forces and the Sunni jihadists stomp on each other's corpses and then YouTube it, while America provided airplane meals to a limited number of people who professed their belief in some form of democratic, nonsectarian government. The appointment of Samantha Power as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations was icing on the policy cake, ensuring that the Pulitzer Prize-winner would be too busy explaining Syria policy to her fellow delegates and Ivy League grads to write a book denouncing Obama as an accomplice to genocide. It was perfect set-up, until Putin ruined it all with a nasty poison gas attack on Obama's face-saving "red line."
The prize Putin is seeking for obliterating the American "red line" is not victory in Syria—since his client Assad is clearly winning anyway. The point of the attack is to publically expose Obama's deep ambivalence about the use of force to stop Iran. If Obama's red line against the use of chemical weapons in Syria can fall so easily, after the public deaths of more than 1,000 innocent people, including hundreds of children who died foaming at the mouth, how many cruise missiles might Iran's putative acquisition of nuclear weapons capacity cost? Two hundred? One hundred? Zero? The answer now is plain: However many missiles they might fire, America has no stomach for fighting a war in Syria, let alone in Iran.
Putin needs to make America look weak because Russia is weak. The major source of Russian weakness is Vladimir Putin—or rather, the system that Putin has imposed on Russia so that he can continue in his dual capacity as the country's elected leader and also its richest man. When he decided to run for president again in 2012, Putin was faced with a fateful choice: He could work to make Russia an attractive destination for foreign capital by strengthening the rule of law and loosening the grip of the oligarchs, or he could choose to strengthen his own rule, according to the methods that were most familiar to him. Putin's decision to use fraudulent means to win the presidential election, and then to clamp down hard on subsequent criticism, closing down newspapers and throwing critics in jail, made perfect sense to a man bred in an authoritarian state. It also ensured that the Russian economy would continue to be run through Putin and the oligarchs—the backbone of his political support—in ways that were unlikely to encourage rational foreign investment. The decay of the Russian economy under Putin means that foreign policy is not a moral exercise—rather, it is the only means by which Russia's current economic leverage can be sustained.
By showing that Obama's America is unable and unwilling to keep its promises, Putin has widened the leadership void in the Middle East—as a prelude to filling it himself. By helping to clear Iran's path to a bomb, Putin positions himself as Iran's most powerful ally—while paradoxically gaining greater leverage with Saudi Arabia and the other Gulf States, who would much rather negotiate with Russia than with Iran, their sworn enemy. While the Americans were heading out of the Middle East, and the Chinese were too busy with their own internal debates about the future of their economy and society, Putin saw that something valuable had been abandoned on the world stage, and he took it. For the price of 1,000 dead civilians in Damascus, he has gained great power status in the oil-rich Middle East. Iran, for its part, gets the bomb, which isn't great news for anyone, but was probably going to happen anyway.
The first lesson here for American policymakers is that Putin may or may not be evil, but he is obviously much smarter than they are—and he knows it. Another lesson worth learning is that American belief in promoting ostensibly universal aims like promoting democracy or halting the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction through the limited and well-meaning use of military force is only sensible in a world of people who share American values and preferences.
Since no such world exists, at least right now, and probably ever, Americans might be better off crediting the notion that while we are thinking our thoughts, other people are thinking their own thoughts, which are shaped by very different experiences and aesthetics—and that are likely to shape a world that we no longer control, in part because we have decided that telling people in faraway places what to do is the ultimate sin. In that belief, as in many others, Obama—and not his critics on the left and on the right—accurately reflects the will of the American people, who have experienced the endless wars of the last 50 years as a pointless waste of lives and treasure whose only clear outcomes appear to be piles of corpses abroad and the diminishment of basic liberties at home.
Only time will tell whose evil is worse—Putin's or Obama's. While Putin delights in using the old-school KGB playbook to consolidate his one-man rule, and to expose the empty moral posturing of the West, Obama believes that he can talk his way into a workable accommodation between his own sense of morality and global reality. But the lesson of Obama's fig leaf is that it is better to be honest about what we are doing in the world and why. If Putin baited a trap for the United States in Damascus, it was Obama who walked right into it. If Obama had stood up and declared that the United States had no vital interest in Syria but would stop Iran from getting nukes—and would prosecute the authors of the nerve-gas attack at The Hague—then Putin would have been trapped. The same would have been true if Obama had said nothing and blown up two or three of Assad's palaces. But he did neither. Sometimes, well-meaning lies and political spin can be just as deadly, in the end, as nerve gas.

QBD head Sir John Thomas named as Lord Chief Justice
Readers' comments (2)
Your last two paragraphs warrant queries and comments:
He added that he would endeavour to maintain confidence in the judiciary and its "high standards of integrity and impartiality".
He says of his predecessor: "He is universally admired for his deep commitment to justice, the independence of the judiciary".
But where is justice to be found?
What would Stephanie Bottrill have said when she was left with nowhere to turn?
Why had she felt that for her there was no justice?
Could Thomas have enlightened her?
With all the "services" "available", as claimed by those who have most recently shown their vociferous professional opposition to threatened cuts to Legal Aid, why didn't Ms Bottrill find any help?
And why didn't she feel that the courts offered her any support?
Whatever might have so prejudiced her against the role of the court system?
Thomas LJ also pledged that the judiciary would "play a constructive role in its relationships with Government, Parliament and the media, but with the tensions that are inevitable in maintaining the rule of law, the independence of the judiciary and the rights of individuals."
What are the rights of individuals who are being denied the say by the legal system about their rights that are violated daily?

|On the transition from Galactic to extragalactic cosmic-rays: spectral and composition features from two opposite scenarios
|D. Allard1E. Parizot1, 2A. Olinto1, 2
|We study the phenomenology of cosmic-rays (CRs) at the galactic/extragalactic transition, focusing on two opposite models for the composition of the extragalactic (EG) component. Model A assumes a mixed source composition, with nuclear abundances similar to that of the low-energy CRs, while model B assumes that the EG sources accelerate only protons. We study the limits within which both scenarios can reproduce the high-energy CR data, from the point of view of the energy spectrum, each with its own interpretation of the ankle (as the GCR/EGCR transition for model A; as a pair-production dip for model B) and its own source spectrum (in E?2.3 model A; in E?2.6 or E?2.7 for model B). We then focus on the energy evolution of the high-energy CR composition and compare our predictions for two main composition-related observables (Xmax and hlnAi) with the available data, to conclude that model A is currently favoured. Uncertainties are discussed and distinctive features of the two models are identified, which should allow one to distinguish between the models in the near future when more precise measurements are available with higher-statistics experiments.
