Open CV applications for android prompts me to download and install Open CV Manager... I just want to know whether there will be a prompt in every application that uses the OpenCV library?If yes is there any way to avoid this? Thanking you in advance for your valuable efforts
Yes, with opencv 2.4.2 it will prompt IF you do not have the opencv manager installed (yet).
The way to avoid that is explained here:
You should read static initialization on opencv.org
Brief: you add native libraries to your project libs folder.
After in generally or with_manager style Library loads with ..initAsync(...) method. You should change this to initDebug().
Your project runs without needs Manager.
I imagine you've worked this out by now but once you've installed the manager you shouldn't get many ( any? ) prompts. See here
To get rid of the message you will need to install OpenCV Manager and the appropriate OpenCV binary package before using the application. Otherwise it prompts to "OpenCV Manager package was not found! Try to install it". The following link will help you "opencv manager package"

The Cinncinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport is located at 2939 Terminal Drive in Hebron, Kentucky. It sits just across the Ohio River from Cincinnati, approximately 13 miles from downtown. Eight airlines service the airport, including Air Canada, United Airlines, Delta and US Airways. Orbitz.com makes it easy to find cheap flights from Cincinnati. The website searches through various airlines for available flights so that you can book your flight with an airline that has cheap tickets.
The Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport offers long-term parking for $8 per day. The airport provides courtesy shuttles that will take you from the rather remote long-term parking lots to the airport terminal. If you are traveling for more than three days, it will be cheaper to take a taxicab to the airport. Taxicabs are available 24 hours a day and will cost only about $30 traveling from downtown Cincinnati. If you need a vehicle when you arrive at your destination, you can also use Orbitz.com to book a rental car. Using the website to reserve a rental car will ensure a smoother transit as your vehicle can be prepared beforehand to be ready for you as soon as you arrive at your destination.
The airport offers numerous dining options if you need to grab a meal before your flight. These include Chick-fil-A, McDonald's, Panda Express and Great American Bagels.

The temperature in Nadi ranges from 68°F to 86°F year-round. The islands get the most rain from November to March.

January 28, 2010Reviewer: Charles in FloridaI have been taking this product for many, many years. The list of daily vitamins and minerals needed is totally within the capsule. You need nothing else. I'd rather take this that not; also rather take this product than 3rd party products.
November 07, 2010Reviewer: Jason in VermontI highly recommend this multi-vitamin. I can feel the difference when I switch to a generic brand, or forget to take a multi all together. The one down side is that you need to make sure you have plenty of food in your stomach when you take it, or it will make you nauseous.

Everything was fine. Good friendly service.
Please have your equipment at the site it was rented. On our pick up date we found out that they didn't have a truck available. Your dealer there was very sorry and helped us find another truck. Our original rental site was in 11 miles closer to where we needed your truck to be. Not only did this cause us extra mileage expense it was hugely stressful as we had to vacate our former residence that day. It's doubtful that we will rent from U-Haul again.
Perfect like always
The trailer was easy to tow and un hitch. The dealer hitched it up and provided excellent customer service. :)
Don was great, and very accommodating when we needed to pick up outside normal business hours.
Mick the dealer was all over it. Made it smooth . Great guy and rep for your co. Did everything he said.
Great service. Very accommodating. Genuine interest in what is in the best interest of the customer. Very happy! Five stars from this customer!
Be more available by phone. perhaps by cell? The sign on your door says to contact you call... but the listed number rings inside the closed office.
Really great!
UHaul needs to open locations that are closer to places we move our things.
It is unfair to charge so much for mileage when they do not have enough drop off locations.
Deluxe Cycle is awesome! They went above and beyond to help me when I broke down out of state to get a truck & autotransport. Located in a small town out of the metropolis but definitely worth the drive for excellent customer service!

Last day in Austria :(
So not a very peaceful night Bobby has taken to talking (very loudly) in his sleep. With that and multiple loo trips its was a very disturbed sleep. Heh ho never mind. Today will be spent doing the last bits of washing (towels and bedding) and swimming in the lake. Charlotte has requested that we go off to a nearby park so we will give that a go ...
Wolfgangsee day
... rid the world of one this evening. So a day to chill was had, Chicken Curry for tea. Ahhhh. Bobby Today was an AWESOME day I jumped in the lake about 2000 times from a long wooden pontoon. I made friends with a boy called Jay who is from Derby and going to be in year 4 in September. We played ping pong then we went in the lake. They are going to St Wolfgang tomorrow but we will play when they come back. Charlotte Today we made friends ...

Keys have been despatched into the river apart from one. So if any of us comes back we can collect it. The kids made their wishes. And now we are on the bus on the way back.

And in true Australian style, we were early for our return ride down the mountain, but since there was no one else on the bus, we jumped on a full 25 minutes early.

By adhering to its two-pronged strategy of promoting its established and promising products, Sihuan Pharmaceutical will endeavour to tap the rising demand brought by wider medical insurance coverage. To this end, the Company will boost its marketing efforts by enhancing academic promotion for its fast growing products and extending market coverage for its established products into third- and fourth-tier cities. The Company will also strive to secure tenders for the development of new markets for newly launched products.
To strengthen its overall R&D capabilities, the Company will optimize return on its investment through higher incentives and improvements in project management to shorten the time-to-market cycle. Furthermore, Sihuan Pharmaceutical will continue to identify opportunities for collaboration and M&A, and will exercise flexibility in collaboration, especially with international pharmaceutical companies.
Dr. Che concluded, "Amid the challenges ahead arising from the anticipated market and policy changes, various favourable factors such as wider medical insurance coverage across the country, the rise in per capita funding standards for medical insurance, the acceleration in

The Internal Revenue Service has spent more time auditing small businesses over the past five years, according to a study by Syracuse University's Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse. The agency has also decreased audits of large companies, according to the study, which notes that auditing more small businesses could help agents meet performance goals but won't help the agency collect more taxes or find more misreported income.

Oconee Medical Center program helps residents access better health
Clients get blend of education, treatment
SENECA - Many Upstaters are caught in a vicious circle: being too sick to work and too broke to get the medical attention they need to get better to find work.
State legislators have declined to accept federal Medicaid expansion funds, private insurance costs continue to rise and many are left without access to health care.
Mountain Lakes AccessHealth, a pilot program launched more than a year ago on the Oconee Medical Center campus in Seneca, has targeted those on the outside looking in with education, access to doctors and medicine and aggressive case management.
"They treat you like you're somebody," says Lee Adkins, an unemployed mill worker struggling with asthma and high blood pressure. "You don't come to these places because you're a bum; you come because you're in bad shape."
Mountain Lakes AccessHealth is not an insurance plan. It matches uninsured patients with medical providers and education to treat their various maladies. There are regular diabetes management and smoking cessation classes, as well as coaching for diet and hypertension and the like. Doctors donate their time, and Oconee Medical Center's pharmacy helps with prescriptions. Case workers help clients identify benefits for which they may qualify and monitor their progress.
More than 40 clients have "graduated" from the program thus far, completing classes and finding medical homes to continue managing their health issues.
"We see the need in this office and send them to volunteer medical providers," said Corti Nations, the executive director who helped found Mountain Lakes. "This program has really exceeded my expectations. Our goal was to impact health outcomes and overall well-being ... and I've been very pleased with that, because that means we met our goal to help people get better."
Lee Adkins and Amanda Roach are getting better, and they give the credit to Mountain Lakes' staff. The Salem couple couldn't find doctors willing to treat them without cash up front, cash they didn't have because both have been out of work. Adkins has looked for work but thinks his health has excluded him from consideration by employers. Roach applied to Social Security for disability several years ago and is still navigating that process, while her arthritis, anxiety and other symptoms have worsened.
"They are wonderful," Roach said. "They take the time to listen to you and help you out. I'm a prediabetic and Adam (Shick, nurse case manager) has helped me with diet; what I can eat and what I can't eat. I stay calmer now, and it seems like me and Lee have lost a little bit of weight."
Adkins agrees. He has become a convert to drinking lots of water ("I kinda like it, to tell you the truth ...") and is thinking long and hard about giving up smoking, although he says that will be much easier said than done. The education, combined with regular medical care provided by Dr. Stan Rampey of Seneca, is making a big difference.
"I've got a lot more energy than I used to have. I did more this weekend than I used to do in a month," Adkins said.
Mountain Lakes is one of nine such AccessHealth programs funded by The Duke Endowment and monitored by the South Carolina Hospitals Association. Its 2012 annual report claims more than 10,000 clients served statewide, with coinciding drops in emergency room visits and inpatient discharges.
Nations is leaving the program to take over the Oconee Medical Foundation, but Mountain Lakes won't stray far from her thoughts or grant-writing efforts. A dental clinic specializing in extractions is on the drawing board for this fall, with space already set aside inside the medical center.
She expects AccessHealth to get bigger and better as time goes on.
"Our community is so philanthropic," Nations said. "They will continue to donate and we will see the impact on patients."
Mountain Lakes has a waiting list, but potential clients and donors are encouraged to contact the office for more information at www.mtlakesaccesshealth.org or 864-885-7341.

Lovely stay
We upgraded to a premier suite, which was very spacious with a lovely freestanding bathtub as well as a shower.
The room could only do with a little refurbishment as its starting to look a little dated. However, if was a lovely room either way. Unfortunately we didn't have time to use the pool, but I booked us in for a massage at the Spa. That was simply wonderful.

Fourth turnings are characterized by a growing demand for social order, yet supply of it remains weak.

In theory, regulation is supposed to set and enforce the rules of the game that market participants play by, in order to ensure that price discovery remains efficient, effective -- and most important -- fair.
In practice, there's plenty of debate to be had on how successful our regulators are in effecting their mission. And one investment class in particular, commodities, frequently comes under criticism for questionable price action.
So, this week we talk with Bart Chilton, former Commissioner of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), about price discovery within the commodity markets, and whether investors can have confidence in the "fairness" of the current system. » Read more

Much of what's been 'sold' to us about the US shale oil revolution is massively over-hyped. The amount of commercially-recoverable shale oil is much less than touted, returns much less net energy than the petroleum our economy was built around, and is extremely unprofitable to extract for most drillers at today's lower oil price.
To separate the hype from reality, our podcast guest is Arthur Berman, a geological consultant with 34 years of experience in petroleum exploration and production, who sees the recent US oil production boost from shale drilling as and short-lived and somewhat desperate; a kind of last hurrah before the lights get turned out. » Read more

Saying it's been a busy week and half on the central bank front is perhaps a sizeable understatement.
First, the Swiss National Bank stunned the world (and its brethren central banks) by removing its peg to the Euro. This was quickly followed by Mario Draghi finally making good on his longtime threat of firing QE bazooka, announcing that the ECB will pursue a 60 billion Euro per month easing program for the next 16 months. And amidst all the smoke, the Canadian central bank snuck in a surprise rate cut to its interest rate.

The present invention relates to a respiration flowmeter, which makes use of ultrasonic waves.
Recently, there has been recognized the necessity of monitoring a respiration function of a patient, inter alia a postoperative serious case. To effect this, it is essential to continuously monitor a flow velocity or flow rate of the respiration, as its basic approach. A first and important requirement for the inspiration flowmeter used for such end is not to inflict a physical and mental load on the patient. Particularly, the respiration flowmeter structured to give a difficulty in breathing, is improper. Conventional flowmeters such as differential-pressure type flowmeters, hot-wire type flowmeters or turbine type flowmeters have been used as respiration flowmeters, but, in measuring the respiration at a low flow velocity of a newborn, for example, the respiration flowmeters of these types work unstably or more adversely cannot measure the respiration flow rate. Generally, on the other hand, when comparing the expiration with the inspiration, there are great differences in temperature, humidity and gas composition. Therefore, even in case of the respiration flowmeter using the ultrasonic wave, a measuring error arising from a change of an ultrasonic propagating velocity in the respiration gas under measurement is not negligible. Thus, the conventional respiration flowmeters have been unsuccessful in providing perfect solutions to the above problems.
Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a respiration flowmeter which can measurea respiration with a high precision and for a short response time, without inflicting a pain or load on patients.
To achieve the above object, there is provided a respiration flowmeter comprising: a conduit through which expiration and inspiration flow; a pair of recesses formed along a line slanted with respect to a flow direction of the respiration gas; a pair of ultrasonic transducers provided in the recesses with their ultrasonic transmitting and receiving surfaces oppositely faced each other along the line; means simultaneously switching the ultrasonic transducers between a drive mode and a receiving mode; digital counting means for measuring either of the two propagating times taken for ultrasonic wave radiated from one of the pair of driven transducers to reach the other tansducer and a difference between the two propagating times; means for judging the flow direction of the respiration gas; means for generating a signal for requesting calculation of a flow velocity of the respiration gas every time the pair of transducers are driven; means for storing the flow direction, the propagation times and the propagation time difference in response to the calculation request signal; and means for calculating and storing a flow rate of the respiration gas on the basis of the stored values.
FIG. 1 shows a cross sectional view of a conduit provided with a pair of ultrasonic transducers used in an embodiment of a respiration flowmeter according to the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating an overall arrangement of the embodiment used together with the conduit shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 shows timing diagrams of signals at the respective portions of the embodiment shown in FIG. 2;
FIGS. 4 and 5 illustrate flow charts useful in explaining the operation of the embodiment shown in FIG. 2.
A structure of a conduit provided with a pair of ultrasonic transducers used in an embodiment of a respiration flowmeter according to the present invention will first be described referring to FIG. 1. In the figure, an expiration gas, for example, flows through a conduit 11, which is made of polycarbonate, for example, and has an inner diameter D, along its axis and at a flow velocity V in the direction of an arrow. The conduit 11 may also be made of metal or plastic. Accordingly, the inspiration gas flows at a flow velocity V' in the opposite direction to that of the arrow. A pair of recesses 12a and 12b are provided on the inner wall of the conduit 11 along a line slanted at a center of the respiration gas flow, for example, with respect to the gas flow. A pair of ultrasonic transducers 13a and 13b are respectively provided on the inner wall of the recesses 12a and 12b, facing at their transmitting and receiving surfaces each other along the slant line. Lead wires (not shown) for leading drive signals to the ultrasonic transducers 13a and 13b and ultrasonic signals received from the ultrasonic transducers 13a and 13b may be connected through the walls of the recesses 12a and 12b to the transducers 13a and 13b from the rear sides of the transducers, respectively. This structure allows the respiration gas to smoothly flow through the conduit 11 without being interrupted by the pair of transducers 13a and 13b. It is evident that, with this structure, a propagating velocity of the ultrasonic wave propagating portions d and d' within the recesses 12a and 12b are not influenced by a flow velocity of the respiration gas. Accordingly, a distance over which the propagating velocity is influenced by the flow velocity of the gas between the transducers 13a and 3b is L. If it is assumed that an angle of the direction V of the respiration gas flow with respect to the propagating direction of the ultrasonic wave is θ and a sonic velocity in the respiration gas is C, a propagating time T1 of the ultrasonic pulses radiated from the transducer 13a to the transducer 13b in the respiration flow direction V is given by ##EQU2## An opposite propagating time T2 of the ultrasonic pulses radiated from the transducer 13b to 13a is ##EQU3## A difference time ΔT between the propagating times T1 and T2 is ##EQU4## Rearranging the equation (3) with respect to the flow velocity V, we have ##EQU5##
The sonic velocity C changes depending on temperature, humidity and gas composition of the respiration air. Accordingly, if the flow velocity of the respiration is measured by merely using the ultrasonic propagating time difference ΔT, the measured value is infuenced by the above factors.
Let us calculate the sonic velocity C by using the sum Ta of the two ultrasonic propagating times T1 and T2. Then, ##EQU6## Rearranging the equation (5) with respect to the sonic velocity C, we obtain ##EQU7## Substituting the equation (6) into the equation (4), then we have ##EQU8## The equation (7) implies that the flow velocity V can be measured by measuring only the ultrasonic propagating time difference ΔT and the ultrasonic propagating time T1, independently of the sonic velocity C, that is, without directly accounting for effects by temperature, humidity and gas composition.
In the structure shown in FIG. 1, an electric heater 14 is mounted around the conduit 11 and/or the transducers 13a and 13b, if necessary, in order to prevent the condensation made when the expiration of 100% humidity flows through the conduit 11.
An arrangement of an embodiment of the present invention will be described referring to a block diagram of a device shown in FIG. 2 and signal waveforms shown in FIG. 3. In FIG. 2, a pulse a (FIG. 3(a)) produced from a timing circuit 21 for each time T0 is applied to driving circuits 22 and 23, a first clock generating circuit 24 and a T counter 25. The time T0 designates a time in the order of several msec to 10 msec. The first clock generating circuit 24 generates clock signals at 100 MHz, for example, for transfer to a ΔT counter 26 for counting the ultrasonic propagating time difference ΔT (0 to several μsec). The T counter 25 counts a propagating time T1, and starts to count in response to the pulse a. The clock signal used for counting the propagating time T1 is supplied from a second clock generating circuit 27. The second clock generating circuit 27 is driven by an output signal from the first clock generating circuit 24, and produces second clock signals at 10 MHz, which is, for example, 1/10 that of the first clock signals.
Upon receipt of the pulse a, the driving circuits 22 and 23 generate signals b' and c' (FIGS. 3(b) and 3(c)) for driving ultrasonic transducers 13a and 13b. Ultrasonic waves simultaneously radiated from the ultrasonic transducers 13a and 13b travel toward the opposite side ultrasonic transducers 13b and 13a, and velocity of the waves is changed on the way by the flow velocity of the respiration gas flowing through the conduit 11. The ultrasonic waves transmitted are received by the corresponding transducers 13a and 13b and are transformed into electrical signals b" and c" which are in turn applied to the receivers 30 and 31, respectively. Receivers 30 and 31, which are controlled by an output of a mask pulse generating circuit 32, reject signals applied during a period TM after the ultrasonic transducers 13a and 13b are driven (FIG. 3(d)). Accordingly, the receivers 30 and 31 discriminate signals b' and c' (FIGS. 3(b) and 3(c)) for driving the ultrasonic transducers 13a and 13b from received signals b" and c", and receive only the received signals b" and c". The mask pulse generating circuit 32 is also driven by the output pulses from the timing circuit 21 and produces p(FIG. 3(d)). The output signals from the receivers 30 and 31 are respectively applied to waveform shapers 33 and 34 where those are waveform-shaped, and those waveform-shaped ones are applied to a direction judgment circuit 35, the ΔT counter 26, and the T counter 25.
The T counter 25 receives the output signal from the waveform shaper 33 to terminate its counting which has been performed under drive of the timing circuit 21. The T counter 25 counts a time taken for an ultrasonic wave to travel from the ultrasonic wave transducer 13a to the transducer 13b (FIG. 3(e)). In the present embodiment, an inspiration condition is illustrated as shown in FIG. 2 in which a patient 10 breathes in the direction of an arrow. Under this condition, the signal b" goes ahead the signal c", as shown in FIG. 3. In an expiration condition that the patient 10 breathes out, the signal c" goes ahead the signal b".
The ΔT counter 26 starts its counting responsive to the leading signal of those output signals from the waveform shapers 33 and 34, that is, the output signal from the waveform shaper 33 in this case, and stops its counting responsive to the lagged signal, that is, the output signal from the waveform shaper 34. In this way, the counter 26 counts the ultrasonic propagating time difference ΔT, as shown in FIG. 3(f).
The direction judging circuit 35 also receives output signals from the waveform shapers 33 and 34. The circuit 35 judges that the respiration is the inspiration when the output signal from the waveform shaper 33 leads ahead the output signal derived from the waveform shaper 34. On the other hand, it judges that the respiration is the expiration when the former lags behind the latter. At this judgment, its output goes high (see FIG. 3(g)) or low in level. The direction judging circuit 35 may be formed of a general flip-flop with a clear terminal.
At the time that the three data necessary for measuring the flow velocity, i.e. the direction of the respiration, the ultrasonic propagating time T1 and the ultrasonic propagating time difference ΔT, are measured, an interruption signal which is the output pulse a derived from the timing circuit 21 delayed by time TD, 1 msec, for example, is applied from an interruption signal generating circuit 36 (see FIG. 3(h)). The interruption signal is a signal for driving an arithmetic circuit 100 so as to cause it to calculate a flow velocity by using the above three data.
The arithmetic circuit 100 is comprised of a microprocessor (MP) 101, a read only memory (ROM) 102 for storing a program executed by the arithmetic circuit 100 and constants, a random access memory (RAM) 103 for storing the data produced during, before or after the execution of the program, an arithmetic processor (AP) 104 for executing the operations such as numerical operation, and ports (I/O) 105 and 106 for inputting the three data, and a digital to analog (D/A) converter 107 for producing a calculated flow velocity in the form of an analog signal. Those components are interconnected by a control bus 108, an address bus 109 and a data bus 110.
The arithmetic circuit 100 proceeds with the operation in accordance with a flow chart shown in FIG. 4.
In a step 201, following the power on, initial values are set in the microprocessor 101, the ports 105 and 106 for inputting data, the memory 102 and the like in the arithmetic circuit 100. Then, in a step 202, the arithmetic circuit 100 is in a standby mode for waiting the interruption signal. When the interruption pulse enters the microprocessor 101, the microprocessor 101 sets itself to be in an interruption inhibiting mode, in a step 203. In the next step 204, the microprocessor 101 fetches the data of the direction of the gas flow, the ultrasonic propagating time difference ΔT, and the ultrasonic propagating time T1 from the ports 105 and 106 for the data inputting, arranges the data into a format easy to be processed. The data are then stored in the RAM 102. For ease of explanation, the ΔT will be treated as data with a sign representing a direction of the gas flow. Then, in a step 205, the microprocessor 101 executes a flow velocity of the gas in accordance with a flow chart shown in FIG. 5 by using the data in the step 204. The resultant data of flow velocity is delivered from D/A converter 107 through the step 206. Finally, in a step 207, the microprocessor 101 sets itself to be in an interruption permission mode and waits an interruption signal produced in the next transmission and reception of the ultrasonic wave. Through the repetition of the above-mentioned operation, the respiration flowmeter of the present embodiment can measure at a rate of about 100 times per second, a flow velocity and a direction of the pulsating gas flow which instantaneously change with the respiration.
The flow chart shown in FIG. 5 illustrating a process flow of the calculation of the flow velocity according to the equation (7) will be given hereinafter.
In a step 301, the ultrasonic propagating time T1 and the ultrasonic propagating time difference ΔT stored in the RAM 103 are set in the arithmetic processor (AP) 104 where the ultrasonic propagating time sum TA (=2T1-ΔT) is obtained. The ΔT used when the Ta is calculated has a sign representing the flow direction, as described above, and a direction of the inspiration flow is represented by a negative sign in the present embodiment.
In a step 302, an instruction for squaring the ultrasonic propagating time sum Ta is transferred to the AP 104 where Ta2 is calculated. In the next step 303, the ΔT data is read out from the RAM 103 and set in the AP 104 where the ratio ΔT/Ta2 is calculated. Finally, in a step 304, the constant in the equation (7), ##EQU9## is read out from the ROM 102 and is similarly set in the AP 104. Then, the MP 101 transfers an instruction to multiply the constant in the equation (7) by the ratio ΔT/Ta2 to the AP 104 where the flow rate is calculated. During the course of the operation, the data transmission between the ROM (102), the RAM (103) or the ports I/O 105 and 106 for data inputting and the microprocessor MP 101 is performed in a usual way. For example, the ROM 102 is designated through the address bus 109; a control signal for data read or data write is transferred to the ROM 102 through the control bus 108; the data to be read or written is transferred through the data bus 110.
As described above, the present invention successfully solves the problems of the prior art as previously stated and provides an almost ideal respiration flowmeter. It should be noted that, in the respiration flowmeter according to the present invention, the signal processing for the measurement is digitally performed, not through the D/A converting process, in the almost entire circuit portions except the ultrasonic transmitting and receiving portions. This feature eliminates the temperature drift which is problematic in the low flow rate measurement. Additionally, there is no need of the fine circuit adjustment essential to the analog circuit. This feature makes easy the manufacture of the flowmeter. Further, the analog to digital converter connected to the data processing is of course unnecessary, leading to simplification of the circuit construction, cost reduction and high reliability of the operation.
Further, the respiration flowmeter of the present invention, which measures the flow velocity of the respiration by using the ultrasonic propagating time and the ultrasonic propagating time difference, allows the frequency of the clock signal to be selected for securing a measuring accuracy required for a measurement to be made. Therefore, the circuit construction is simple and an unnecessary high speed circuit is omitted. Further, the values thus measured are arranged in a minimum data length, so that the succeeding data process may be effectively performed.
In the above-mentioned embodiment, the receiver circuits 30 and 31 are so connected to be supplied with the mask pulse for discriminate signals b' and c' for driving ultrasonic transducers 13a and 13b from received signals b" and c". The waveform shapers 33 and 34 may also be connected to be controlled by the mask pulse.

Raise a Glass to SF Beer Week! What to Attend
With the ever-increasing prominence of beer lists, beer tastings, beer dinners, and Cicerones (the suds equivalent of a sommelier), San Francisco is prepped and ready to celebrate a panoply of offerings at Beer Week, which starts next Friday. 50+ small, independent craft breweries will showcase their wares at the fest, with many brewers coming in person to talk shop. Beer Week also means plenty of beer dinners at SF restaurants, special offerings at stalwarts like Toronado, City Beer Store, and The Monk's Kettle, and lots of other fun events. Here are our picks for the best activities during Beer Week. We'll also be featuring some Beer Week steals in next week's Lowering the Bar column.
The Big Eat Back Story: Menage a Trois at Ike's Place
For the Big Eat 2010, we went behind the scenes of three establishments to learn the true story behind our current cravings. Following is the story of #100.
"You should be able to put anything in between two slices of bread and eat it," says Ike Shehadeh. "When I bring home leftovers—whether they're pot stickers or jalapeño poppers—I try them as a sandwich. Usually, it's pretty good." This practice has spawned the wacky menu at Ike's Place, his cultlike sandwich to-go shop in the Castro, which opened in 2007. Cultlike because, whether you like it or not, you have to try it once. Ike's is an experience.
The Big Eat Back Story: Coconut Buns at King's Bakery
For the Big Eat 2010, we went behind the scenes of three establishments to learn the true story behind our current cravings. Following is the story of #52.
The Big Eat Back Story: Fried Chicken and Waffles at Little Skillet
For the Big Eat 2010, we went behind the scenes of three establishments to learn the true story behind our current cravings. Following is the story of #4.
Market Watch: Sun Dried Tomatoes, Fruit Cheese and More
Mondays are a great day to have off; when the house is quiet and everyone else is off at work, I can take some time to do some cooking for the week. I use whatever market goodies have made their way home with me to cook up some basics—like a pot of beans, a pan of roasted root veggies and good homemade stock—that can easily be turned into several week night meals or a brown bag lunch or two. Having great staples in the pantry always makes everything a little more tasty and most of my favorite pantry items come from the farmers market. Here are the essentials I recommend to make your weekly routine a little more delicious:
The 2010 San Francisco Tastemakers
A food mecca can't subsist on genius chefs alone (although we love our chefs). It also needs its chocolate and cookie makers, visionary wine directors, cookbook curators, restaurant incubators and - of course - its food-as-performance-art collective. Meet the food stars who keep our city shining bright.
Lowering the Bar: 5 Places to Drink For Cheap (or Free) This Week
Each week, we bring you our picks for the best places to booze on the cheap in SF.
This Week's Events: Culatello Kings, Punch-Drunk Love
Culatello King Comes to Incanto
Massimo Spigaroli, Italy's king of culatello, will host a dinner at Incanto with chef Chris Cosentino featuring some of the very best porcine presentations. The dinner begins at 7 p.m. and tickets, including wine but not service, are $80. To reserve your seat, call 415-641-4500.
Coffee Culture Reaches Fevered Pitch
I don't know how many of you remember the great charcuterie tsunami of the mid-2000s, but you have it to thank for the prevalence of mid-grade house-cured meats that you can now find on the menus of nearly every restaurant in or around an urban center. Taken from a distance, this is a fine trend—who am I to begrudge cured meats? But when poorly executed it doesn't matter if it's housemade. I cite this historically relevant culinary event only because I fear it has begun to happen with coffee.
Street Food Carts Get Park Assignments
The word is starting to trickle in that Parks & Rec have begun calling applicants who made a bid for an ongoing, permanent street food space in one of the 219 parks in San Francisco. Though nothing is final yet (applications still have to be approved by the commission and a public hearing will be held for each new addition), chances are good that come spring you'll be seeing Let's Be Frank carts near the Conservancy of Flowers in Golden Gate Park and at Justin Hermann Plaza.

Richard J. Arsenault of Neblett, Beard & Arsenault in Alexandria, Louisiana, says the latest cases of food poisoning undermine public confidence in our nation's food supply.
Alexandria, La. (PRWEB) May 10, 2010 -- As another outbreak of E. coli spreads across the nation, prompting a multistate recall of lettuce products, a nationally known law firm involved in food safety litigation has called for stricter enforcement of food processing rules and regulations.
"E. coli in any food product is unacceptable, and once again we're seeing an outbreak in a popular and widely distributed food item," said food safety lawyer Richard J. Arsenault, founding partner at Neblett, Beard & Arsenault in Alexandria, Louisiana.
"This type of recall undermines the public's confidence in our food supply," Arsenault said. "It's imperative that the safety of our food become a top priority."
On May 6, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced a multistate recall of shredded romaine lettuce sold by Freshway Foods of Sidney, Ohio. Tests run by the New York State Public Health Laboratory in Albany discovered the presence of the E. coli 0145 in a package of romaine lettuce.
The recalled romaine lettuce was sold to wholesalers, restaurants, delis and institutions under the brand names Freshway and Imperial Sysco in the following states: Alabama, Connecticut, the District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina,

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
By Billy CorriherMayor Joy Day told the Georgia Rail Passenger Authority Wednesday that locating a commuter rail station downtown would act like a magnet, drawing more retailers back to the downtown area. "At one time, all the lawyers' offices were full of retailers," she said. Other cities that have implemented similar plans around a rail station have seen their downtown areas rejuvenated, said Doug Alexander, rail manager for the Georgia Rail Passenger Authority. "(Transportation and economic development) go hand in hand," he said. "It helps bring focus and consolidate some energy for redevelopment." To attract more retailers, the city will soon implement its master plan for downtown development, part of the Livable Centers Initiative, which aims to improve the overall quality of life in Jonesboro. The city is finalizing the plan to pump new life into downtown with new retailers, sidewalks and green space n all centered around the proposed commuter rail station to be housed in the old depot. Planning for the rail line, which would run from Atlanta to Macon and through Clayton County, is complete and now the rail authority is waiting for state funding to update the area rail system. The city initially told the Atlanta Regional Commission, which is funding much of the LCI improvements, that it wanted the rail station located outside of the downtown area because of traffic and access concerns. But at a meeting with the rail authority on Wednesday, Mayor Joy Day said Jonesboro will spur more development by locating the station downtown. The city held public hearings throughout the planning process, and Day said many residents expressed a desire for more businesses and activity around the depot. Local resident Mildred Williams has followed the plan and said it will be good for Jonesboro. "We need something to revitalize downtown," Williams said. Day said that, as Jonesboro has grown, most retail stores have moved away from the downtown area, and that getting more pedestrians downtown will bring them back. The commuter rail would also give commuters another option to get to Atlanta and will reduce traffic on Interstate 75, Alexander said. City Manager Jon Walker said he does not think the rail station will increase congestion in downtown Jonesboro, which already sees 12,000 cars per day. "We decided, instead of having one parking deck that might be difficult to get to, to split the parking (for the rail station)," Walker said. One deck will be located behind the Heritage Bank on Mill Street, and the other will be located behind the Clayton County Courthouse. The city would pay 20 percent of the $4.8 million to construct the Mill Street deck in 2004. The remainder might be paid by an LCI grant the city will soon apply for, Walker said. Rail commuters would be able to walk from the decks to the depot, which would have a new extended platform. The city also wants to develop more retail space downtown and a town plaza behind the Main Street storefronts between Church and Smith streets. In addition to the new town plaza, the city also envisions adding a stage area to the courthouse green for special events. The city will begin streetscape and sidewalk improvements next year. The plan, if approved by the City Council later this month, would also provide more sidewalks in Jonesboro and a 12-foot wide walking trail down McDonough Street from Stately Oaks to the Historic Confederate Cemetery.

While people can sit and criticize him for having a death wish or write off his life as a lesson in overconfidence, I believe he ultimately pisses people off simply because he didn't need permi...

I believe it was on a local college radio station, KXLU. I had heard of him through other sources prior to this...Dengue Fever, a Los Angeles band, has Cambodian vocals. I heard him mentioned a...
Sinn Sisamouth
The mood is somber as I'm returning from an all day surf trip; cramped neck and a busted toe, physically worked and in a mental fog, yet fully satisfied. We're driving home in silence unde...
Until they get slapped with eminent domain or something to the effect. 3600 aboriginal peoples vs. a machine with billions and billions behind it is a bit of an uphill battle. "About a dec...
Re: rescueMe PLB by Ocean Signal - $247
I wish I wasn't broke, this is a great deal. My McMurdo Fastfind is just about expired.
Re: Re: Sub 24: Los Padres NF. 5/9-5/10
Thank you Tom. I'm looking forward to it as well. I've been wanting to go back and draw that rock with the ship's prow since I saw it with you 2 years ago.
Re: Sub 24: Los Padres NF. 5/9-5/10
Yeah Nick, I have had more bear encounters in Los Padres than I have had in the Sierra. I know you know the area we were in; I love it there during the "winter" closures...MTB in on the ...
Re: Re: Sub 24: Los Padres NF. 5/9-5/10.
Thanks everyone. Yeah Doug, it's an established campsite, but a trail camp. It's at least 6 or 7 miles from the nearest parking area, which in turn is reached after ~10 miles of dirt ro...
Re: OMG!!
I love the 16th picture…rock and ice and sky, could be the remnants (or beginnings) of an ice age. I can almost see herds of mammoth migrating through the valleys.
Sub 24: Los Padres NF. 5/9-5/10.
I often daydream and hope that there are limitless creatures on this planet that will never be found by a human, hiding in the ocean depths or thick jungle canopies. And I hope that there is a bea...

Montbell Thermawrap jacket
A great jacket- my XL weighs in at just over 10 oz. with its stuff sack. Very simple, functional design- perfect for 3 seasons in the Sierras when combined with a base layer and/or shell system.
Dirty Girl Gaiters
These are great "dry" gaiters. As a trail runner I shopped and shopped for a good, breathable, and lightweight pair...not much out there. Most mainstream gear makers seem to seriously over...


text: Only stayed one night on Diwali but the place was quiet. No viewer say but clean, comfortable rooms with a fish tank for ambience. Very comfortable beds, good a/c, separate shower, good pressure and hot water. Great location in the backpacker area and walking distance to train station. Nice rooftop restaurant overlooking the throngs of people. Highly recommend it.

Wild Horses and Gravel Roads
... the hour back to camp.
We saw a large herd of buffalo with several young calves as we cut across Wind Cave National Park. While out at the sanctuary we saw a vulture feeding on the ground. On our gravel road we saw one of the largest prong horn antelope we have seen. Peg got a great picture of him after I honked and he stood up. We also passed a large prairie dog village. Peg was reading in one of the National Park brochures to be sure and avoid contact with them as they ...
Rest Day
... emptier than at any point since we got here so I grabbed my laptop and headed for a WIFI hot spot to get updated on my blog. The internet gods were with me so I was able to upload my previously prepared text and pictures and send it off to all of you. Hopefully tomorrow night I can get this one sent as well.
Love and miss you all...see some of you in a few days..the rest of you...eat your heart out. ...
Day 7 Hart Ranch
... Thomas Jefferson vanilla icecream, we parted ways and Murray and I continued our ride on Hwy 244 where we encountered our first mountain goat on the roadside, to Hill City and back to Keystone. This seemed like a good place to relax and sip on a cup of coffee. Murray settled on a comfortable bench while I checked out a few stores. It was another wonderful ...
This is what its suppose to be!
... the plug.....wow don't we feel stupid. People on the road are very kind, and they will always stop to see how your doing and share their wisdom and advice (much needed for us). After a much needed rest we drove up the notorious hill that we had trouble with yesterday and finally got the 12 miles to the Horse Thief Campground in the Black Hills...it was gorgeous...peaceful and ...
4 Presidents, a Park, and an Indian
... shadow and will be for a bit. We watch in awe, snapping photo after photo. After about 20 minutes, two people show up. They are as surprised as we are that no one else is here. They snap several photos and set up a video for a friend, who is unable to travel. She will get to see the sun rising on the monument after all. They leave and Allen and I have the place to ourselves again. The sun is higher in the sky now, so the faces are ...
