Karel and Stern try one last attempt to save Triton from Exterminatus via the hands of the unfeeling Inquisitor Mordecai.
"Stern!" it hissed, then moved away from the portal so that the final member of this Daemonic pact could burst through into existence. the final figure emerged, tallest of the three, her lithe form striding gracefully from the portal. she vaguely resembled a human woman, but there was a completely unhuman air of grace and seduction to her. she was thin, but muscular. her naked torso expanded and retracted beautifully as she breathed air again. her face was human for the most part, her eyes a dangerously seductive black that damned any mortal foolish enough to gaze into them, a series of horns extended backwards out of her head where her ears should have been, and her purple hair was braided in long strips dowh her back. her pale flesh more attractive than that of any mortal soul. three pairs of breasts ran down her torso, ending in savage sets of teeth instead of the seductive nipple. as well as a normal set of arms, an extra pair extended from her back, ending in glassy black, scythe like claws. her normal arms were lean and muscular, in one she carried a thin bladed sword, whilst the other ended in a purple glove capable of heightening the emotions of any mortal it closed around, making them the perfect morsel to sustain it's wearer, the one known as Zarakynel.
her stomach gurguled in anticipation for the coming battle and she let off a childish giggle, much to the distaste of the red skinned An'ggrath, who snorted, then spoke in a booming voice.
"where is that vile puss bucket, Scabeithrax?!" he roared in frustration.
M'Kachen swung it's head round to meet the Daemon's gaze.
"Scabeiathrax fell to the humans, he crossed the void to early." it hissed.
"don't speak to me, sorceror! you are scum! you would prefer to blast your enemies apart rather than rip their skulls from their flesh!" boomed An'ggrath, who then lowered his head and charged at the skinnier Daemon, who readied his staff to deal with the Bloodthirster.
as the two bickered, the lean figure of Zarakynel watched with interest and hunger as a contigent of black armoured humans approached, the one leading the procession she identified as the one who had summoned them. the procession stopped, and Syrax, who's name Zarakynel had fortold before her arrival, nodded to the dark haired human who stood beside him. the human pulsated with Daemonic aura, and Zarakynel knew he was not entirely human, at least, not anymore. the human ran forward and jumped lithely onto her leg, climbing up her enchanting form. she giggled, her heightened senses feeding off every touch of his hands scaling her supple body. he clambered over her supple, fleshy thigh and up her perfectly muscular back, using the braids of purple hair as hand holds. eventually he reached her shoulder, and clambered upright to talk into where her ear would be.
"Lord Syrax offers you three of his finest warriors to be devoured in return for your services."
"excellent." she giggled in a seductively sweet voice, "am i to devour you this day, morsel?"
"no." he replied flatly, with no hint of being seduced by her seductive aura, "he also requests that you break up the two bickering children, so as he may put them to work on your task."
"very well." she said, swelling her lithe form to greater height and strength. she grabbed An'ggrath by the ring in his nose and M'Kachen by his scrawny vulture like neck and lifted them both off the ground.
M'Kachen fell eerily silent whilst An'ggrath struggled in her grip. she giggled at their pain, then brought them both close to her face.
"we all have work to do here, the sorceror has his enemy to confront, and the Bloodthirster has skulls to collect, so i suggest you both stop fighting before you become my next meal."
she let go of both of them, and they dropped to the ground.
"now," whispered the human on her shoulder, "you may take your pick, three warriors."
she scooped her head down, staring at the comany. most looked away, but those too slow got caught in her deadly gaze, and stood there, their grip on their weapons slackening. she plucked three hapless warriors from the company, scoping them up in her gloved hand. she swallowed all three whole in one go, savouring the pain and pleasure as they struggled inside her. her stomach gurgled, and the movements inside her ceased. she sighed, regretting she couldn't devour any more, then she smiled, sudden realisation flooding into her. she could have all she wanted, she was superior.
she puffed her chest out, the gnashing teeth on her breasts opening up. long, glistening tongues shot out, ensnaring six more humans and pulling them in. she giggled as she felt the humans struggle in her grip. the gnashing sets of teeth closed firmly, damning the humans inside, she could feel their pain and anguish at being betrayed by such a beautiful being, and the gurgling faded as the thrashing of the humans within her bosom ceased.
"my master will not be happy." whispered the figure on her shoulder, who then leapt, dropping to the ground with barely a thud.
M'Kachen's head snapped up suddenly.
"i sense Stern!" it hissed, "he is near!"
M'Kachen's eyes focussed on a human ship streaking through the sky.
"then go." Zarakynel waved a hand dismissively, "delight in feasting on your prey."
M'Kachen spread it's leathery wings and took flight, angling towards the point where the human ship was landing.
Stern jumped from the boarding ramp of the Thunderhawk as soon as it touched down, excited at the prospect of piloting a Nemesis Dreadknight again. he leapt over to Tech-Priest Vakel, who was fiddling with an ancient control panel next to the massive bulk head doors of a weapons cache.
beside Vakel stood Benvard, the Sergeant Major of the Zerithian Cobras. Stern acknowledged him with a quick nod. behind Stern, the deathwatch spread out, backing up the perimeter of Guardsmen. Karel jogged over to the group, slightly annoyed at being left behind.
"how long will it take you to open this damn thing?" he ordered Vakel.
the sound of battle could be heard all around them as the Guardsmen and the Deathwatch fended off the Daemonic horde.
"you will need to wait until i have administrated the rites of opening, brother Captain."
"for the emperor's sake!" Stern shouted, "do you mechanicus have to have a ritual for everything?"
"if it is any concern of yours, most things." Vakel spat back.
just as he was about to punch in the code and open the bulkheads, Vakel was lifed off his feet by a violent psychic blast, rising high into the air before exploding.
Karel elt out a savage roar as he was covered with the burnt shrapnel and seared flesh of a man he had known and fought alongside for years.
he went to draw his sword, but a silver armoured hand held him in a firm grip.
"no, Karel." said Stern, "he's mine."
Karel looked up to see a massive, blue skinned, vulture-like humanoid descend from the skies and land in a billowing cloud of psychic energy, throwing back the guardsmen around it.
"Deathwatch, with me!" roared Stern, and Karel felt a slight twinge of jealousy.
"great, now what do we do?" grimaced Benvard.
"we take the easy way in." said Karel, thrusting his fist straight through the control panel and watching the ancient bulkheads begin to slide lazily open.
Stern turned to face his ancient enemy, as M'Kachen turned towards him. the Daemon's skinny frame towered vastly over the forms of the defenders and the other daemons around it.
"bring it, filth!" Stern roared.
the daemon said nothing, but simply rammed it's staff towards Stern.
he dived out of the way, but was too slow, his left arm getting caught by the end of the staff. Stern heard a loud crack and pain laced up his arm before the seditives of his armour began blotting out the pain and healing the broken bone.
Stern landed and rolled to absorb the impact, activating his Nemesis force weapon as he went.
the blade crackled with a blueish hue, the ethereal energies lighting the blade up, a beacon of the emperors light for the defenders.
the daemon launched it's hand towards Stern, aiming to crush him. Stern jumped over the blow as it landed, landing squarely on the daemon's blue skinned arm. Stern climbed up the daemon's arm, his feet steady and sure. he climbed up to the daemon's shoulder. the creature brought it's staff round, aiming to knock Stern off, but Stern dug his nemesis force sword into the creatures boney flesh as the staff hit his shoulder guard. he stood firm as the daemon screeched with rage, flapping it's wings in a torrent of pain.
Stern moved his left arm as the various chemicals his armour produced finished healing it, and weilded the force sword in both hands. around him, the Deathwatch gave him cover fire, and Stern was grateful for their support. he wrenched the force sword out, then turned and slashed it through one of the daemon's leathery wings. the warp spawned creature screeched in agony as it's wing came flying off and black ichor spilled from the wound.
it lifted a massive hand and batted Stern off it's shoulder, sending him flying. Stern landed with a heavy thud and rolled to his feet ready for whatever psychic monstrosity the daemon had conjoured up. but the blow never came.
Stern turned at the sound of heavy footsteps and saw M'Kachen grappling with a silver giant of a machine. it was roughly humanoid shaped, with the main cockpit open to the elements. in one silver armoured arm it carried a hammer, whilst a massive, multi barreled psycannon was mounted on the other. the Dreadknight mimiced it's pilot's movements, and Stern saw that it was Karel who operated the Dreadknight.
the massive construct grappled with the towering daemon, and Stern saw his chance. he ran at the Daemon, jumping up it's leathery leg and using the loincloth around it's chest as a method of climbing, he once again hoisted himself up onto the creature's shoulder, lifting his force sword high above him, then slashing it low. a look of surprise came over the creatures face as it saw it's headless body towering over it, then the blue skinned body fell, throwing up a large cloud of dust and black ichor. Stern jumped from the monster's form as it collapsed, landing squarely on his feet in front of it's corpse. a second later a massive crack in the ground opened beneath the daemon and it fell back into the soupy flesh of the warp.
"you fight well, brother Karel." Stern saluted.
Karel copied the salute, the massive suit copying his movements.
Stern watched as another Thunderhawk descended, blasting apart the remaining daemons that assaulted them with practiced volleys of las fire and heavy bolter shells. instead of a troop compartment, the Thunderhawk had several long mechanical arms ending in clamps slung on it's underside.
"Brother Captain Stern." shouted Karel, "will you be willing to pilot the other Dreadknight?"
"Brother Captain Karel." replied Stern with a broad smile, "i would be delighted."
Lorelei Grey ran onto the landing deck as the first Thunderhawk touched down, unloading it's cargo of Deathwatch members. this was followed by several Valkyries loaded with guardsmen, and then another Thunderhawk carrying the massive forms of two Nemesis Dreadknights, clamped to the underside of the Thunderhawk with massive grappling claws.
the Thunderhawk deposited it's cargo and then turned and landed alongside the other ships.
"i never thought i'd see the day..." murmured Inquisitor Mordecai beside her. the man had turned out to be more of a hinderance than anything else, questioning Lorelei's every move and decision. the silent form of Castellan Garran Crowe stood behind them, leaning on the daemon sword that signified him as brotherhood champion of the purifiers.
Lorelei watched as the two massive Dreadknights, one piloted by Cpatain Stern and the other by Captain Karel, stomped over the metal decking towards her.
"you got them." she smiled, "i knew you could."
"aye." replied Stern, "but not without loss."
"Vakel was slaughtered by a daemon of the foul sorceror god." Karel spat, "we slayed his killer."
Lorelei nodded, turning and walking away from the assembled commanders.
Karel quickly unclipped himself from the Dreadknight's harness and dropped to the floor, following.
Stern did the same, dropping to the metal decking of the landing deck with a thud, and marched to where he knew the one commander who had been silent and out of sight ever since they had gotten back would be.
Benvard sat on one of the benches in the chapel, his head leaning against the wooden arm of the bench and staring listlessly at the floor. he looked up as Stern marched over and sat beside him. the Grey Knight's massive form dwarfed Benvard's.
"something troubling you, Sergeant Major?" he asked.
"a little." sighed Benvard.
"care to enlighten someone?" asked Stern.
"i'm not sure." said Benvard.
"Sergeant Major, if life has taught me anything, it is that all people have troubles, and it never does them good to keep those troubles locked away. such things lead to heresy. you don't have to tell me, just someone you trust."
"well," replied Benvard slowly, "if i can't trust a Grey Knight, who can i trust?"
Stern sat and listened.
"i took sixty men out with me today, Captain. fourty three came back. these are men that i've bled with. men i've fought with, men who i got down to the cathouse with after evening drills. and every day i see more of them extinguished as if they were nothing more than ants beneath a man's boot."
"Sergeant Major, i don't pretend to understand your predicament, nor do i pretend that i am the right person to console on the matter, but i will say this."
"what?" replied Benvard.
"that every man is a spark in the dark, and that each one, though only seen for the briefest second, burns as bright as the light of a thousand suns, and that even though your enemy may see them as less than ants, the Emperor values each and every soul that passes into his halls. remeber not how your men died, Sergeant Major, remember how they lived."
"thank you, sir." replied Benvard after a minute.
Stern offered his hand out, and Benvard took it in the warrior's grip, a symbol of friendship and loyalty across the entire imperium.
he clapped the guardsman on the back, almost knocking the wind out of him.
"thank you, captain." wheezed Benvard, trying to get enough air in again.
Stern chuckled.
"i think you will be alright, Sergeant Major."
he rose to his feet and marched down the central aisle, leaving the Sergeant Major to his thoughts.
Lorelei Grey stood in the training chambers of the Warp-Rider.
she had stripped down to boxers and a training bra, which she always wore underneath her clothes. in front of her a punchbag hung from the vaulted ceiling. her face streaked with tears, she hit the punchbag again and again, venting out her frustration.
it wasn't fair.
she had known Vakel her whole life, and they had been close friends. every time, when a Guardsman's time was up and their company deported back to their home planet, or a contigent of Space Marines were called into defence elsewhere, it had always been them. they had bled and fought by each others sides.
and now he was gone.
hot sweat dripped down her body and her muscles were raw with the physical exertion, but she didn't care. she only wanted to find release from the constand stench of death all around her.
"he was a good man." came a voice from behind her.
Lorelei turned to see Karel standing there, his face grim.
"yes." she replied hoarsely, "he didn't deserve his fate."
she leaned against the metal wall and slid down it, drawing her legs under her chin and clasping her arms around them.
"Inquisitor." started Karel, sitting beside her, "fate rarely does us justice, and that is just a fact we must live with. we are the fighting force of the imperium. one thing is for certain in our line of work, we all die bloody. what makes us different is that we can choose where and when."
the Inquisitor nodded as Karel continued.
"Vakel chose his fate. he could have easily sent an adept to go in his stead, but instead he went himself. the fact that he was willing to place himself in harms way shows that was willing to give his life in defence of the imperium."
"it dosen't change the fact he's dead, though." she whispered.
"no, but we can honour him by remebering, and avenge him by fighting these foul Daemons every step of the way."
"i don't think he'd be that easy to forget." chuckled the Inquisitor, and Karel couldn't help but smile.
just then a voice rang out over the ship's speaker system.
"will all Imperial officers please report to the bridge."
"Mordecai." muttered Karel.
"that bloody bastard is giving orders on my ship!" yelled Lorelei, surging to her feet and running over to where her armour sat in a pile in the corner.
whatever Mordecai wanted, it had better be good enough for her not to put a bullet through his skull.
Benjamin Mordecai looked up as Inquisitor Grey entered the bridge. he stood and looked at her with his arms folded. either side of him stood Castellan Crowe and Captain Stern. behind them stood a ten strong squad of Grey Knights.
"alright, Inquisitor Grey." said Mordecai, "time for you to enlighten us as to this brilliant scheme of yours."
"very well." said Lorelei, stepping up onto the commander's pulpit and giving Mordecai a slight push off it.
"as you know, there are still civilians on the planet below, and whilst they can't escape, we can still do our best to prolong their survival until more help arrives. a fleet is being dispatched from Culexa Primus as we speak. in the meantime, i propose we cut this incursion off at the head."
"and just how do you propose to do such a thing, Inquisitor Grey?" replied Mordecai smugly.
"why do you think we went to such lengths to obtain the Dreadknight suits, Mordecai? i intend to use the suits to close the warp portal feeding this invasion, thus cutting it off at the head and turning a dangerous mission into a cleanup job."
Mordecai unfolded his arms, furrowing his brow.
"i can vouch Captain Stern for piloting one of the suits, but there are none amongst our number with skill enough to pilot the other."
"Captain Karel displayed great skill in piloting the suit when we were securing them." put in Stern.
"then it is settled." said Lorelei before Mordecai could put up a fight, "Sergeant Major Benvard and Castellan Crowe will lend their strength to keep the horde at bay whilst Captains' Stern and Karel attempt to close the portal. now, let's get to work!"
she clapped her hands and waved the space marines off the bridge before turning to Mordecai.
"this is deception, this isn't fair." she snarled at him.
"sometimes these things must be done, Inquisitor. would you rather the horde spread?"
"you're enjoying this too much, Mordecai..." she spat.
both fell silent as they knew what they were about to do.

By Wainwright Jeffers - bio | email ALBANY, GA (WALB) - Big Brothers Big Sisters is trying to spread the word about the program in Albany and show how much it impacts the lives of young people.
Wednesday night we met 15-year-old Cody Yearton and his big brother Dr. Peter Taylor as they practiced jujitsu together.
Cody has been through hard times from being expelled from school to being homeless. He and his big brother say the program means a lot to both of them.
"It's a good experience meeting a new mentor and having someone to look up to," said Cody Yearton.
"You've got a person you can affect in a positive way and be a role model to that may not have many in their lives," said Peter Taylor, Big Brother.
Cody plans to become a certified lifeguard this year and start school at Albany Tech in the welding program.
Big Brothers Big Sisters needs more volunteers in Albany.

The Miami Dolphins have made it official. Jeff Ireland has been fired in Miami. The news just broke a few short minutes ago and the details are still not all in but many fans are celebrating the news.
Ireland is the last piece of the Bill Parcells mistake that has remained. He had a tight bond with Stephen Ross who ultimately needed to make a change moving forward. The move now puts into question whether or not HC Joe Philbin who was thought be safe will in fact be just that.
That question will be decided by the next GM and there is some rumor that person could come from within. Brian Gaines and Dawn Aponte both are expected to receive consideration for the job.
Ireland has been marred by out of office mistakes as well as poor draft selections. Last off-season he was handed a checkbook and ran 200 million dollars in guaranteed money up on Ross' account. Despite the effort to procure a playoff spot, the Dolphins failed to win one of their final two games and were eliminated.
There are those who believe that Joe Philbin too should have been fired.
We will have more on this as it develops.
Statements from both Stephen Ross and Jeff Ireland:
"I want to personally thank Jeff for his hard work and dedication in building the team over the past six years," said Ross. "After a series of discussions, we both felt that it was in our mutual best interest to part ways. Jeff was a loyal and dedicated member of the Dolphins and we wish him and his family nothing but the best."
"I've spent the last six years with the best organization in football," added Ireland. "Steve and I came to an agreement that the best thing moving forward for all parties would be to part ways. I'd like to thank Steve for all his support and kindness. I've had the opportunity to work with some of the most amazing people during this time and I'd like to thank them all from the bottom of my heart. "

Muffins made with... Yogurt?
Hubs got me The America's Test Kitchen Family Baking Book for Christmas this past year, and I've finally gotten around to testing some of the recipes in it. I tried out their "Blue Ribbon Apple Cake" a few nights ago and wasn't entirely thrilled with the combination of pre-cooked Granny Smith apples and cooked brown sugar. I plan to make it again, but I want to tweak the recipe slightly to suit my family's tastebuds.
Since the apple cake didn't quite live up to my expectations, I've been craving something baked with apples. I bought a ridiculous amount of Golden Delicious, Gala, Fuji, and Pink Lady (my FAVORITE!) apples yesterday, for the sole purpose of baking muffins and another cake. So the basic muffin recipe from the cookbook, with my own additions, were on the breakfast menu this morning!
Big Beautiful Muffins- Apple Cinnamon variation
3 c. all purpose flour
1 c. sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/2 c. yogurt (low-fat, whole, whatever you have on hand)
2 whole eggs
1/2 c. (8 Tbsp./1 stick) butter, melted and cooled
2 apples, peeled, cored, and diced in 1/2" cubes
1 Tbsp. all purpose flour
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. vanilla extract/vanilla bean paste
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F, with the rack placed in the middle. Spray your muffin tins with cooking spray and set aside. (Cupcake/muffin liners are okay, but these guys slide out very easily, and you won't have any muffin wasted by pulling off the paper if you just grease your tin!)
2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder & soda, cinnamon and salt. In a smaller bowl, whisk together yogurt, eggs and vanilla.
3. Fold the yogurt mixture into the flour, until *just* combined (it's okay if there are still some streaks of flour). Fold the melted butter into the batter.
4. In a small bowl, toss together the apples and the 1 Tbsp. of flour until the apples are well coated. Fold the apples into the batter.
5. Scoop 1/3 c. of batter into each pregreased muffin cup. Bake for 25-30 minutes. A toothpick poked into the middle will come out with a few crumbs clinging to it for dear life.
6. Remove the tin from the oven, and let your muffins cool IN THE TIN for about 5 minutes. After that 5 minutes, you can either turn the muffins out on to a rack or carefully pull each one out and place them right-side-up on your rack. (If you let the muffins cool in the tin before messing with them, it'll be much easier to get them out because they'll have rested and won't be as delicate as they are straight out of the oven!)
There are so many possibilities with this basic muffin recipe... You can do blueberry instead of apples; omit the cinnamon and apples, and use orange zest and chocolate chips; you can use dried cranberries, nuts, etc. As long as you have this basic muffin recipe, the breakfast/snack muffin "world" is your oyster! :)

i'm a huge fan of america's test kitchen. i've made these and subbed one cup of the ap flour for whole wheat flour. they were still great. i was thinking next time i make them i would switch out some of the butter and/or yogurt for apple sauce. might give the flavor a little kick and make them a tad healthier. great pictures!

Visualizing the United States Power Grid
NPR provides an in depth view of the U.S. electric grid, exploring the network, power sources, and where in the country power is coming from:
The U.S. electric grid is a complex network of independently owned and operated power plants and transmission lines. Aging infrastructure, combined with a rise in domestic electricity consumption, has forced experts to critically examine the status and health of the nation's electrical systems.
The above is a view of the grid; below is a view of nuclear and solar energy across the country.
The NPR team obviously put a lot of work into this interactive graphic. Explore data from eleven different data sources, apply filters, and view breakdowns for each state via a smooth interface. Really impressive work. Check it out for yourself.
[Thanks, Chris & Michael]

This has to be the definitive map of American energy. Alyson Hurt should win an award for this. Unbelievable detail and gorgeous layout.
Pingback: Links for 4/28
Pingback: Visualizing the power grid | Sugar Mob
What this visualization doesn't show well, but that I'd like to see, is a bar graph of which methods generate power in each state, and perhaps another bar graph that projects what they hope to see in the future. The map would be useful, though, to show how much area would need to be covered with solar panels or windmills to provide the projected amount of power in those categories.
I have the feeling that there is a missing context. Canada and Mexico. Electricity is being sold/bought from Canada and Mexico and that would maybe influence the map a great deal.

GR Mailbag #1

Looking forward to it
A treaty sounds very Star Trekky the first series - cool and necessary.
I think a treaty is necessary because of kind of the reverse thing that Stephen Hawkings talked about. He said that if aliens came we might not do so well just like natives didnt do well when Europeans came to North America or other places.
I know that was supposedly a joke but Im not so sure hes got a very good point we cant just believe people aliens or otherwise will act the way we expect thats a very smart thing to know, if you ask me. Never mind do we know what kind of possible diseases aliens could have? Thinking of the last interview which I havent even finished yet they could have electromagnetic diseases maybe if that exists.
Anyway, the way this is opposite that is that it relates to an agreement of how to behave out in a relatively unexplored territory. And thats like what didnt happen back in the days of exploring the west. People had different views of how things should proceed some people wanted to treat natives and the west very differently from what happened.
Aside from that since there was no law or treaties out in the US western fronteir there was a very different settlement pattern than in Canada where the west was opened up with laws and Mounties and a railroad didnt hurt. In Canada because of this there was no wild west no violence, no gun fights.
Whereas in the US for about 25 years there was no law and people young men or even teens a lot of them who would be considered gang members in todays inner city rode around robbing and threatening people and that lawlessness has been mythologized when it wasnt even that long a period. Adding to, in my opinion the whole us/them rebellious bad guy is good no matter what they stood for or how unnecessary the behaviour was or who their behavior affected kind of idealogy. (Sort of a macho thing, if you ask me).
So I am glad, that some Americans are looking to have a different kind of opening up of outer space . Although I loved Hans Solo I do think that theres truth in the idea that we get what we expect. And if we expect to act reasonably with others and cooperate then we can say Hey, youre not cooperating, what gives?. The ultimate expectation and agreement should be cooperation if we all lived by that everywhere the world would be a much different place.
(Something I believe touched upon in the last interview just before I had to stop listening and to which I shall now return). Im looking forward to this one.
PS - I was actually thrilled to see Hon. Paul Hellyers name on the list of co-authors of the treaty. I thought he was a lovely guest his words about how we need to give everyone a chance really moved me.

In Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM), a particle or mass oscillates about an equilibrium position and is subject to a linear restoring force. The direction of the restoring force is always towards the equilibrium position and the magnitude is directly proportion to the magnitude of the displacement.
When a spring with a mass attached to one is compressed/stretched and then released, it will oscillate with a restoring force of F = -kx (Hooke's Law), where k is the spring constant.
The spring constant k is a measure of the spring's stiffness.
A spring with a spring constant k and mass m, displaced x meters, will have an acceleration a = -(ω^2)x, where angular frequency ω = 2πf = sqrt(k/m).
Frequency f is measured in hertz (Hz), which is cycles of oscillation per second. Angular frequency ω is measured in radians per second and is a measure of the rate at which an oscillating object would move through an arc.
The position of a spring as it moves through its cycle is: x = X cos (ωt), where X is the amplitude.
Assume that the spring has maximum displacement at t = 0.
For small oscillations and short periods of time, springs can be treated as conservative systems: E = K + U = constant. Assume all potential energy is converted to kinetic energy as it oscillates.
The spring has potential energy U = (1/2)kx^2, where x is the displacement from equilibrium. The kinetic energy is K = (1/2)mv^2.
Maximum velocity is reached at equilibrium length, while velocity is zero at maximum displacement.
The restoring force of a simple pendulum is generated by gravity: F = -mg sin θ. For a pendulum of length L, the angular frequency is: ω = 2πf = sqrt(g/L).
A pendulum can also be approximated as a conservative force if air resistance and friction and negligible, where E = K + U = constant.
The pendulum has a maximum potential energy U = mgh, where h is the vertical height difference. Kinetic energy of the mass attached to the pendulum is: K = (1/2)mv^2.
Transverse waves are a waveform in which the direction of the particle oscillation is perpendicular to the movement (propagation) of the wave (e.g., visible light, microwaves and x-rays).
The longitudinal wave is a sinusoidal wave in which the particles of the wave oscillate along the direction of travel of the wave (e.g., sound).
The displacement of a particle in a wave is: y = Y sin (kx - ωt), where Y is the amplitude and k is the wavenumber (not the spring constant in Hooke's Law!).
The distance between one maximum (crest) of the wave to the next is the wavelength λ. The speed of the wave is: ν = fλ.
Wavenumber is defined as: k = 2π/λ. The angular frequency is: ω = 2πf = 2π/T. Thus, wavespeed v = fλ = ω/k = λ/T.
Phase difference describes how "in step" or "out of step" two waves are with each other.
When waves are perfectly in phase, the phase difference is zero. If two waves occur such that the crests (maxima) of one coincide with the troughs (minima) of the other, the phase difference would be one-half of a wave or 180°.
The principle of superposition states that when waves interact, the result is a sum of the waves.
When waves are in phase, the resultant wave has greater amplitude (constructive interference). When waves are out of phase, the resultant wave's amplitude is the difference between the amplitudes (destructive interference).
If a string fixed at one end is moved up and down, a traveling wave will form and propagate toward the fixed end. When the wave reaches the fixed boundary, it is reflected and inverted, interfering with the original wave.
When both ends of a string are fixed, certain wave frequencies result in standing waves, which appear to be stationary with only fluctuations of amplitude at fixed points.
Points that remain at rest are nodes, while points that are midway between nodes and fluctuate with maximum amplitude are antinodes.
The frequency or frequencies at which an object will vibrate when disturbed is the natural frequency.
If a periodically varying force is applied to a system, it will be driven at a frequency equal to the frequency of the force, known as forced oscillation. The amplitude of this motion will generally be small unless the frequency is close to the natural frequency.
If the frequency of the periodic force is equal to a natural frequency, the system is resonating and the amplitude of the oscillation is at a maximum.
Sound is transmitted by the oscillation of particles longitudinally, i.e., along the direction of motion of the sound wave. Sound waves propagate as mechanical disturbances through deformable media.
Sound travels fastest through a solid and slowest through a gas. In air, the speed of sound at 0°C
Audible waves have frequencies that range from 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz.
Sound waves whose frequencies are below 20 Hz are infrasonic waves, while those above 20,000 Hz are ultrasonic waves.
Intensity is the power transported per unit area, with SI units of watts per square meter, W/m^2. It is calculated as: I = P/A.
Intensity is proportional to the square of the amplitude and inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source.
Sound level β, measured in decibels (dB), is: β = 10 log (I/I_0), where I_0 is a reference intensity set at the threshold of hearing, 1 x 10e-12 W/m^2.
When the intensity of sound is changed by some factor: β_f = β_i + 10 log (I_f/I_i)
The perception of frequency of sound is pitch, where higher-frequency sounds have higher pitch.
If two sound waves have nearly equal frequencies (in the audible range), the resultant wave will have periodically increasing and decreasing amplitude, which are heard as beats.
The beat frequency, perceived as a periodic variation in loudness and not pitch, is: f_beat = |f_1 - f_2|
The Doppler effect describes the difference between the perceived frequency of a sound and its actual frequency when the source of the sound and the sound's detector are moving relative to each other
The perceived frequency is: f' = f [(v ± v_D) / (v ∓ v_S)], where v is the speed of sound, v_D is the speed of the detector and v_S is the speed of the source.
The upper sign is used when the detector and source are getting closer, while the lower is used when the detector and the source are going farther away.
Closed boundaries are those that do not allow oscillation and support nodes, while open boundaries are those that allow oscillation and support antinodes.
When strings are secured at both ends, the two points can only support a node of a standing wave. The wavelength of the standing wave for a string of length L is: λ = 2L / n, where n is a positive nonzero integer.
Possible frequencies are: f = nv / 2L.
The lowest frequency of a standing wave is known as the fundamental frequency (first harmonic). The frequency given by n = 2 is the first overtone or second harmonic.
The wavelength of a standing wave for an open pipe of length L is: λ = 2L / n, where n is a positive nonzero integer.
Possible frequencies are: f = nv / 2L.
The wavelength of a standing wave for a closer pipe of length L is: λ = 4L / n, where n is odd integers only.
Possible frequencies are: f = nv / 4L.

Collective Entrepreneurship: An Emerging Phenomenon in Producer-Owned Organizations
AbstractThis paper introduces and defines the concept of collective entrepreneurship. A review of the defensive single-level rent-seeking objective of traditional agricultural cooperatives is introduced followed by an analysis of recent studies documenting a shift in the objective functions of producers jointly integrating toward more multiple-level rent-seeking entities. This process of shifting from market failure-ameliorating collective action mechanisms toward rent-seeking group action organizations is labeled collective entrepreneurship. The justification for introducing this concept is based on the Olsonian premise that rational, self-interested individuals will not act to achieve their common or group interests without coercion or selective incentives.

Tech, health care too hard to play
In an already confusing year, stocks in these sectors have become too random and inconsistent.
By Jim Cramer, TheStreet
Some segments of this market are too hard to work with. Last night I talked about how tech has become too hard. How could Cirrus Logic (CRUS) and Skyworks (SWKS) be the only two tech plays I follow that hit a 52-week high Monday? They are parts makers, for heaven's sake.
But suddenly they are viewed as total winners because they have parts in Apple (AAPL) products and Apple will need to start a price war to win against Verizon's (VZ) Droid! That was Monday's collective mindset.
The rest of tech was really not so hot -- led, inevitably, by Intel (INTC) and Cisco (CSCO), which do nothing on good and bad days. These are two disappointing stocks that I think are too cheap and doing too well to ignore, but they are ignored daily.
The other segment that's way too hard to play is health care. It bumps along doing nothing until, voila, we get a bid, and then everything runs, and then it goes back down again.
We now know that there are many companies circling around Genzyme (GENZ), because none of the big guys have any growth anyway. So what happens? Biogen (BIIB), Cephalon (CEPH) and Celgene (CELG) all ramp up huge as other potential takeover targets. Celgene? I mean, that's bigger than half the companies that are supposed to be buyers. I figure all three will go down again.
Or health care maintenance companies. People keep talking cheap. Cheap? See above about Intel. That's no catalyst.
I am not saying that tech or health care has become like the banks, which we've all begun to recognize are completely and utterly uninvestible. Monday was a rare good day on account of better housing numbers and the lack of equity issuance out of Europe.
But if jobless claims are bad on Thursday, you know Bank of America (BAC) will go back to the low $13s, JPMorgan Chase (JPM) will retreat to $28 and Wells Fargo (WFC) could head back to $26.
But health care and tech have become too random for most people's portfolios, which leads to underperformance, which leads to double ETF selling pressure, which leads to more underperformance until the sector is so beaten down that it gets interesting again. Certainly, though, not in any time frame that allows you to keep up with the averages.
Of course, that means a dramatic overweighting in the radically overbought industrials. But without that overweighting, the notion of being in the black this year is downright fanciful.
It's a tough, confusing year, unless you own the United Technologies (UTX), Union Pacific (UNP), UPS (UPS) quadrant.
Then it's all gravy.
At the time of publication, Cramer was long Apple, Intel, Cisco, Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase and UPS.

What is the Brevard Theatrical Ensemble?
The Brevard Theatrical Ensemble's storytellers search all year for stories about Florida's historical past.
The events and people involved with the states long history is exciting, funny and sometimes sad, but always entertaining.
For, not only is the state surrounded by water that is enjoyed by tourists, but it has nurtured and produced some of the worlds great events.
The nonprofit ensemble uses these historical facts to bring a frozen moment in time back, so that you can share the common ground on which we all walk.
This year's production starts in the world of 1513 and continues with events and people who assisted in developing the state:
. Ponce de Leon: 1513,
Fountain of Youth)

A cancer survivor who wore a tutu during a race was made fun of in the April issue of Self and was extremely offended, to say the least.
The magazine writer declared war on tutus worn during races in a column called "The BS Meter." Underneath a photo of two women wearing superhero T-shirts and tutus -- one of whom was Monika Allen, who was undergoing chemo for brain cancer -- the caption read: "A racing tutu epidemic has struck NYC's Central Park, and it's all because people think these froufrou skirts make you run faster. Now, if you told us they made people run from you faster, maybe we would believe it."
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, especially when it comes to fashion, but this Self writer was totally off-base and ill-informed.
Eczema flare-ups mean you can't do a lot of things. Among them: you should avoid acidic foods, sweating, and itching. Especially the itching.
But while there might be plenty of restrictions, there are also plenty of things that you should do. Case in point: You CAN be stylish even when you are going through an uncomfortable flare-up. Here's how.
Sigh. As much as I hate to say it, I'm really starting to think that the idea of looking professional in any way, shape, or form is a thing of the past. Don't believe me? I have proof.
Get a load of these Dress Pant Yoga Pants, which are exactly what they sound like. They're yoga pants masquerading as slacks. They give you the ability to wear your workout gear to work so you don't have to bother changing before hitting the mat once business hours are over.
And I know what you're probably thinking. "Yoga pants that double as work pants? Score! Who wouldn't want these?"
I'm sorry, but I wouldn't be caught dead in these things -- at the office.
Just a couple of days after the sheer black dress incident that had us clued in to Kim Kardashian's issue with some sort of bra malfunction, the new mama once again is seen out and about in all black. But this time it's totally different. Not just literally day and night, but from glam to super casual. Dare I say, however, that Kim looks even more amaze in her zippered up to there sweatshirt and sneakers?
I mean, most women, when we put on workout clothes, our looks isn't quite as polished. Or maybe that's just me. But Kim ... she makes workout clothes look hotter than our regular clothes.
A lot has been made of Kim Kardashian's body and style choices lately. She's been working out hard to lose the baby weight (*vomit* sorry, I spew every time I type that phrase, it's a reflex). Headlines proclaim "Kim's Body Is Back." Unless she was astrally projecting in order to better spy on the heads of Throbtron, her body is where, you know, she left it. Attached to her head.
I have been fascinated lately, however, by what Kim's wearing to and from the gym. Kim was just spotted in a black and gray mostly-Spandex ensemble. Before you start sharpening your scythes and lighting your torches, this was work-casual Spandex, not ass-displaying Spandex -- and it was pretty great.
It's football season once more. You know what that means. No, no, I'm not talking about your Fantasy Football League gearing up again. I'm talking about ladies thinking it is a good idea to go around wearing football jerseys. Ugh. Excuse me while I throw up into the bag I keep just for this purpose.
Look, I support boyfriend jeans and oversized button-downs. I've got no beef with ladies wearing ties or a shoe that could be described as "mannish". I've long been a fan of Annie Hall, and as such, I think ladies who can pull off that look should! I just think that broads in jerseys are the exception to this rule.
Every year around the Oscars, I happen to catch a segment on some fashion show telling me what the newest trend is, based on this year's hit movies. I recall the first of these segments aired a couple years back during a pre-Oscar lineup. I was informed that with the success of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, I would start to see a lot of people in new blockbuster-inspired fashions.
What I loved most was when they mentioned that "even moms could get in on the trend." Really? Even frumpy ol' moms could get in on the crappy trend some PR person thought up to help put tushes in seats? Wow, we moms are lucky. Here are a couple of those fashions touted to us that I find truly ridiculous:
You can tell a lot about a person by his or her workout gear. Some people's gym clothes seem worn to hide the body -- baggy sweats, oversized, long-sleeved T. I've seen people wearing what looks like regular work clothes on the treadmill. Like maybe they couldn't change before they came to the gym? Maybe they didn't want to? And then there are the people who go all out with the sexy -- butt-hugging Spandex shorts, cropped bust-hugging Spandex half-tops. Not to mention full-makeup, hair, and earrings. But I don't think I've ever seen anyone sexy up her workout quite as much as Courtney Stodden. You have to take a gander at her workout outfit. Tell me your jaw doesn't drop. You're lying.
In the past 30 years, many accepted practices have changed. What people considered normal and safe back then -- transporting your newborn in the front-seat, having a latchkey kid at age 6, and letting them explore the woods with no parental guidance -- is pretty much grounds for arrest these days. But, in that simpler time they call the '80s, there were some great ideas that I'm thinkin' we should totally revive -- the way Disney Channel stars have brought back overly-sequined attire, off-the-shoulder shirts, and leopard print day-glow leggings!
Thanks, Shake It Up, I can barely look at my daughter without retinal strain!
Let's be clear: some of these suggestions could possibly get you arrested (by Joan Rivers and the fashion police), but I think they're worth bringing back, or are they? You decide ...
Be honest, how many days a week do you go to get dressed with every intention of putting on a cute outfit -- only to break down and throw on yoga pants because they're just so darn comfy you can't help yourself?
All moms do it, because we're smart, and because it's a whole hell of a lot easier to manage the gazillion things we have to do on any given day if we aren't confined by zippers, buttons, and the like.
Just yesterday, I woke up and went to the closet and grabbed a pair of jeans, and then the work-at-home mom in me kicked in and said, "Wait a minute -- I'm not leaving the house today, so why waste a good pair of jeans? Yoga pants it is."

MILWAUKEE (WKOW) – Two junior chefs from Wisconsin and
Minnesota are preparing to have lunch with first lady Michelle Obama at the
White House on Tuesday.
Liam Kivirist is an 11-year-old from Browntown and Kaitlyn
Kirchner is a 9-year-old from Madelia, MN.
They are among the winners of a White House contest that asked kids
between the ages of 8 to 12 to create healthy lunchtime recipes.
Liam won with his chili, simmered in a solar oven, while
Kaitlyn came up with a garden stir fry featuring vegetables her family grows in
their garden.
Both of the kids say they've been cooking since they were
little. They also say they are thrilled
to have lunch with Mrs. Obama.

Teri Ummeed Tera Intezar Jabse Hai
Lyrics & Chords
When I first heard this Faiz Ahmed Faiz ghazal some 7-8 years ago in Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's voice, the khayal as in his Mukhda inspired me to transform it into light and modern form of ghazal gayeki. I came up with a different tune for the first line of each antara and maintained the same khayal as in Mukhda for the second line. So this is part original khayal and part my own inspiration.
Faiz Sahab (1911-1984) is like the King of modern ghazals. Highly intellectual and a Marxist. Many Pakistani singers have sung his ghazals including Noor Jahan, Mehdi Hassan, Fareeda Khanum, Iqbal Bano, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and numerous others. Hope friends who enjoy Urdu poetry will like this presentation on my home recorded track that is in C#.
Listen Nusrat Fateh Ali in Mehfils:
Teri Ummeed Tera Intezar Jab Se Hai
Na Shab Ko Din Se Shikayat Na Din Ko Shab Se Hai
Kisi Ka Dard Ho Karte Hain Tere Naam Raqam (Tere Naam raqam=Tujhse associate karna)
Gilla Hai Jo Bhi Kisi Se Tere Sabab Se Hai
Hua Hai Jabse Dil-e-Nasaboor Beqaboo (Dil-e-Nasaboor=Besabra Dil)
Kalam Tujhse Nazar Ko Bade Adab Se Hai
Agar Sharrar Hai Tu Bhadke Jo Phool Hai Tu Khile (Not covered here, was already over 5 min)
Tarha Tarha Ki Talab Tere Rang-e-Lab Se Hai
Kahan Gaye Shab-e-Furqat Ke Jaagne Walay
Sitara-e-Sehri Hamkalam Kab Se Hai (Sitara-e-Sehri = Subha Ka Sitara)*
Harshan Nambiar (away for a month india vacation) said
Naqvi saab….my pleasure to open the innings on this:)
Beautiful modulations,expressions,harkats and dynamics in this ghazal. Absolutely loved it….ummeed wali harkat and the way you sang the words…shab se hai, sabab,adab….was just treat to the ears…….to my favourites !!! Happy new year in advance.
"Music is the universal language of mankind."
― Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Mustafa musaji (drifting away...) said
Bahot hi aaram, sukoon aur itmenaan se gaya ye ise Naqvi bhai – quite soothing and pleasant! And a lovely voice to go with it. Thoroughly enjoyed all the way, including the 3 closing drum beats….:-) Your vocals sounded a little heavy on bass; to be more precise, a little more tone could have been better, I felt.

You are capable of rendering songs with classic grace and serenity and sensitivity.
The melody and reposefulness of your songs could always cast a magical spell on ears, as it has done this time also.
Liked it a lot…

Dear Naqvi Guru ji,
Sorry for this delay in response and for my intermittent presence last couple of weeks. Been doing some extended solo stints between USA and Singapore lately…., what I jokingly call as my "self-imposed-exile" :-) ! I reunited with my family (dear wife and our two boys) during the past couple of weeks, at Singapore. Was therefore catching up and had a busy sightseeing schedule to entertain them.
They flew back to Chennai yesterday…. So I am now back to "Phir Wohi Shaam, Wohi Gham, Wohi Tanhaayi Hai" :-)! Now looking forward to "music" keeping me active company, and to catching up with all our awesome artists out here :-) ! Many thanks & Happy New Year again….
Warm regards,

Janab Naqvi sahab, You are gifted with a rich voice and superb singing abilities, by Almighty. Faiz Ahmed Faiz Sahab is indeed the King of modern ghazals. For me, he is always present in this world because of his soulful poetry.

text: You're twisting my words, as you have in other threads.And making rather clueless assumptions too.I have not said it is the sole responsibility of a Canadian consumer to protect their privacy but they share the same responsibility. A lot of anger towards TekSavvy is because people expected TekSavvy to launch legal action on a cause that is not theirs directly. They are NOT a law firm. They are NOT a civil rights group. They are NOT a consumer group. They are NOT a think tankWhat I am saying is that is neither right or wrong to do what TekSavvy is doing or what Distributel is doing. Distribuel 180 degree stance now is admirable (but I myself question the motivation).We already expect all TPIA to fight for against things like UBB, throttling, fair data usage, pricing, competition in the broadband access market. Now we want to become legal experts and fight in the courts too? That wasn't what they sold you, and I challenge you prove me wrong with a ToS from ANY ISP.You are right about one thing, there is a special relationship between the ISP and the customer because of the sensitive data they are preview too. And that was is PIPEDA is there for. Their responsibility is to safeguard their database so that unauthorized eyes dont ever see that data. This includes safeguarding from external attacks (something many companies have failed if you've kept up with companies like Sony being breached). And they did fulfll their end of the bargain by not handing any information to Voltage. They told them to go to the courts where a Judge can decide if Voltage's motion has any merit (for the record, I believe the don't).You forget there is legislation there for a reason, to settle disputes and crimes.Someone commits a crime against you (assault, robbery, B&E, etc). Do you become a vigilante and take the law into your own hands? Do you conduct your own investigation to identify a masked assailant? No, you report it the police.TekSavvy has sent Voltage to the courts where matters like these belong. And there are groups like the CPPIC that are made of citizens who do care about the privacy of all Canadians and are willing use their own time and resources to fight against Voltage. Instead of just sitting in a chair slandering an company on a forum.

For fifteen years, this successful summer program has enabled educational opportunities for children from low-income families. Horizons invites students from kindergarten through eighth grade to experience academic and enrichment opportunities. Students benefit from hands-on Science Technology Engineering Math (STEM) programs, dedicated certified reading specialists, project-based learning endeavors, interesting lessons that build life skills, weekly enrichment field trips throughout the community, and swimming instruction.
The Horizons program is offered through a private-public partnership. Nearly 375 students from 63 different Norfolk, Portsmouth and Virginia Beach public schools take classes five days a week on the campuses of independent schools: Norfolk Collegiate, Portsmouth Catholic Regional, and Chesapeake Bay Academy. With support from both the public school systems and the independent school partners, this successful collaboration has grown each year since the program's inception.
Horizons Hampton Roads is proud to boast tangible, meaningful results for its students. Year after year students test in reading and math both at the beginning and end of the summer session. And year after year, the program has proven to raise students abilities an average of 2-3 months in both reading and math. Of note, the students who are the furthest behind, tend to gain the most knowledge, making a significantly positive impact on their readiness to begin the next school year. Horizons is a successful proven method to fight the achievement gap and offset the summer slide.
Horizons helps students gain confidence in school and prepares them for the next school year. This translates to a significant decline in the drop-out rate and an increase in the number of students continuing their education beyond high school. The Horizons program shows disadvantaged children a path to success, and gives them the skills to achieve that success.
Horizons Hampton Roads is a local affiliate of Horizons National.

MADISON (WKOW)-- The polls are closed, and ballots have been counted in a tight presidential race. That battle, and the race for a U.S. Senate seat brought out near-record numbers of Wisconsin voters for Tuesday's election.
The Wisconsin State Journal reports that late Tuesday, it appeared more than 70 percent of Wisconsin's 4.8 million eligible voters would cast their ballots. If that held out to be true, that would place the day's voting among the top four turnouts for presidential elections in Wisconsin history. It surpasses the 2008 presidential election, which 2.9 million voters turned out for, or 69.2 percent of eligible voters. It comes in behind the elections in 2004 and 1960.
Polls were busy in Madison. The State Journal reports as of 4 p.m. on Tuesday, the Madison city clerk's office had counted over 180,000 votes. Even with high voting numbers, the state seemed to be free of voting glitches.
