» Common Opal
Common Opal or "Potch"
Pictures of beautiful common opals
What is Common Opal?
The definition of "Common opal" is a stone that does not exhibit a "play of color". Although most of these stones are also "common" in appearance and do not attract commercial attention, some of them are beautiful. This material is given the name "common opal" because it is found in many locations throughout the world. Some people in the trade also call common opal by the name "potch".
Beautiful Common Opal
Gemstone hunters seek out specimens of common opal that are attractive, colorful and and accept a lustrous polish. They can be beautiful but simply lack a play of color that would earn them the name "precious". Common opal is frequently cut as a gemstone and can sell for attractive prices.
Examples of Common Opal
Shown at right is a beautiful blue teardrop-shaped stone cut from common opal mined in Peru. It is 13x8 millimeters in size and weighs 2.3 carats. Also at right is a collection of common opal 4 millimeter beads ranging from white to pink to lavendar in color. The material used to produce these beads was also mined in Peru. The third photo at right shows two Morado Opal cabochons. "Morado" is Spanish for "purple" and some stones cut from purple material mined in Mexico are given the trade name "Morado".

This invention relates to a signal generator for testing television equipment by generating a pattern which is displayed on the television screen and from which the qualities of the equipment can be gauged.
The present invention is defined in the appended claims, to which reference should now be made.
The invention will be described by way of example with reference to the drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is a basic accumulator circuit which can be used in a preferred signal generator embodying the invention;
FIGS. 2A and 2B, which may be placed one above the other to form a composite FIG. 2, show the arrangement of nine accumulators in the signal generator:
FIGS. 3A and 3B, which may be placed side by side to form a composite FIG. 3, show an overall block diagram of the signal generator; and
FIGS. 4A and 4B illustrate some of the patterns which can be achieved with the aid of the signal generator.
The television signal generator to be described displays the frequency response of a television system in 3 dimensions, i.e. horizontal frequency, vertical frequency and temporal frequency. Unlike the more familiar test signals, such as line sweep, multiburst or test card resolution bars which contain only stationary vertical gratings, the generator can produce gratings not only of varying pitch but also of varying slope and moving at varying speeds. These sloping and moving patterns are desirable for testing sophisticated video processors which combine signals from different scan lines and/or different fields, e.g. vertical aperture correctors, comb filter coders, sub-Nyquist sampling systems, noise reducers, and standards converters.
The preferred generator can either produce gratings of fixed pitch, slope and speed, or it can vary the parameters smoothly from one part of the screen to another and from one picture to another to give a frequency sweep in up to 3 dimensions. At maximum sweep rates it is possible to display the entire range of spatio-temporal frequencies in about 10 seconds. By reducing the sweep rates and adjusting the centre frequencies it is possible to examine each part of the spectrum in more detail.
First the principles of operation of the preferred signal generator embodying the invention will be described.
The generator is digital and operates at a line-locked sampling frequency of approximately 13.3 MHz, although this could easily be changed. It produces sine waves by using a read-only-memory (ROM), whose input represents the phase of the signal at each sampling point. It will be appreciated that in principle any desired periodic waveshape can be formed. Square waves and gamma-corrected sine waves are of particular interest.
The phase, φ, is calculated according to the following general second degree equation in x, y and t (horizontal position, vertical position and time):
φ=k.sub.φ +kt ñt+kt.spsb.2 ñ(t2 /2)+ky ñy+kyt ñyñt+ky.spsb.2 ñ(Y2 /2)+kx ñx+kxt ñxñt+kxy ñxñy+kx.spsb.2 ñ(x2 /2) (1)
By adjusting the ten coefficients (k's) in this equation, it is possible to control the sweep rates and centre frequencies of the resulting pattern.
Any spatio-temporal frequency can be resolved into three components; horizontal, vertical and temporal. The horizontal component may be defined as the rate of change of phase in the horizontal direction:
∂φ/∂x=kx +kxt ñt+kxy ñy+kx.spsb.2 ñx (2)
Thus kx controls the initial horizontal frequency component, and kxt, kxy and kx.spsb.2 control the rates at which this component of the frequency varies with time, vertical position and horizontal position respectively.
Similarly, the vertical frequency component is:
∂φ/∂y=ky +kyt ñt+ky.spsb.2 ñy+kxy ñx (3)
and the temporal frequency component is:
∂φ/∂t=kt +kt.spsb.2 ñt+kyt ñy+kxt ñx (4)
So vertical and temporal frequency components can also be made to vary with position and time. Note, however, that these three equations are not completely independent. For example, the horizontal component ∂φ/∂x and the vertical component ∂φ/∂y are both functions of kxy, which thus controls both the vertical variation of the horizontal frequency component and the horizontal variation of the vertical frequency component. Similarly kxt controls both the horizontal variation of the temporal component ∂φ/∂t and the temporal variation of horizontal component ∂φ/∂x. Also, kyt controls both the vertical variation of the temporal component and the temporal variation of the vertical component.
Despite the above restrictions, it is possible to generate some very useful test patterns, including the following:
(1) Constant spatio-temporal frequencies (φ=kx ñx+ky ñy+kt ñt).
(2) Hyperbolic zone plates (φ=kxy xñy). This is a two-dimensional frequency sweep in which the horizontal frequency component depends on the vertical position; and the vertical frequency component depends on the horizontal position. The pattern contains all possible spatial frequencies, but it lacks the obvious symmetry of the circular zone plate.
(3) Circular or eliptical zone plates (φ=kx.spsb.2 ñx2 /2+ky.spsb.2 ñy2 /2) consisting of concentric circles (or elipses) becoming steadily closer together away from the centre. This is also a two-dimensional frequency sweep containing all possible spatial frequencies. The horizontal frequency component depends on the horizontal position; and the vertical frequency component depends on the vertical position. Because of its obvious circular symmetry the circular zone plate is easy to understand and is probably the most useful two-dimensional frequency sweep pattern. Until now circular zone plates were only available as optical test cards from which inevitably imperfect signals were obtained by TV cameras or slide scanners.
(4)Any other conic section zone plate (φ=kx.spsb.2 ñx2 /2+kxy ñxñy+kx ñx+ky.spsb.2 ñy2 /2+ky ñy) such as parabolas and non-rectangular hyperbolae.
(5) Moving patterns. By adding kt ñt any of the above stationary patterns can be made to move at a constant frequency.
(6) Accelerating patterns. By adding kt.spsb.2 ñt2 /2 any of the above can be made to move at a rate which steadily increases from stationary to 25 Hz and back again. For example:
φ=kx.spsb.2 ñx2 /2+ky.spsb.2 ñy2 /2+kt.spsb.2 ñt2 /2
is the logical extension of the circular zone plate and can be named the `spherical zone plate`
(7) A sweep of vertical and temporal frequency displayed on vertical and horizontal axes (e.g. zero vertical frequency at top, high vertical frequency at bottom of picture; stationary at the left moving to the right). This moving pattern could be extremely valuable for testing and displaying the characteristics of field store standards converters:
(φ=Ky.spsb.2 ñy2 /2+ktx ñtñxñ)
This pattern is thought to be particularly important.
(8) A sweep of horizontal and temporal frequency displayed in horizontal and vertical axes:
(φ=Kx.spsb.2 ñx2 /2+kty ñtñyñ)
In order to generate the required patterns, the generator must calculate the phase φ according to equation (1) for each sampling point in the picture. If the sampling frequency is line locked so that the sampling points are vertically aligned, then x can be defined as the number of samples from the left-hand side picture, y can be defined as the number of lines from the top of the picture and t as the number of fields since last reset by the operator. Because of interlace, y increases each line in steps of two, so that for one of the two interlaced fields y is even and for the other field y is odd. (Assigning a fixed value of y to the whole of each scanning line and a fixed value of t to the whole of each field is an admissible simplification).
The values of x, y and t for each sample could be generated by element, line and field rate counters and the phase φ calculated by multiplication and addition according to equation (1). Multiplication is one of the most difficult operations to perform, so the sweep generator avoids the use of multipliers by generating each of the terms in equation (1) as follows.
The number kt ñt increases each field during field blanking by the amount kt. It can, thus, be generated by an accumulation circuit which stores the present value of kt ñt and adds kt to it during each field blanking period. Similarly ky ñy can be generated by an accumulator which stores the present value and adds 2.ky to it during each line blanking period; the accumulator being reset at the top of each picture to values differing by ky on odd and even fields. Similarly, kx ñx is generated by an accumulator which adds kx once per sample and is reset at the beginning of each line.
An example 10 of such an accumulator circuit is given in FIG. 1 and is seen to consist of an adder 12 and a register 14 connected in a loop. The register is reset at the start of each line (x), the top of each field (y), or by the operator (t).
Generating the three `cross-product` terms (kxy ñxñy, kyt ñyñt, and kxt ñxñt) is a two stage process. For example, kxy ñxñy is a number which increases each sample by kxy ñy, which itself is a number which increases by 2kxy for each line of the field. The term kxy ñxñy can thus be generated by an accumulator which is reset at the beginning of each line and then for each sample adds the output of an accumulator which is reset at the beginning of each field. kyt ñyñt and kxt ñxñt are generated in a similar manner.
The `squared` terms are also generated by a two stage process. For example 1/2kx.spsb.2 ñx2 increases each sample by (kx.spsb.2 ñx-1/2kx.spsb.2) which increases each sample by kx.spsb.2. It is thus generated by two element-rate accumulators in tandem.
As the accumulations continue the phase will go through many complete cycles, but since only the fractional part is required to generate sine waves the accumulators need only count fractions of a cycle and can be allowed to overflow after each complete cycle.
As noted above, each of the terms in the phase equation of the 3-dimensional frequency sweep can be generated by accumulator circuits. If the terms were generated separately, a total of 15 accumulators would be required, one for each of the 3 first-order terms in x, y and t, and two for each of the 6 second order terms in xy, yt, xt, x2, y2 and t2. It is however, possible to combine the operations so that only 9 accumulators are required in practice.
FIGS. 2A and 2B show a possible arrangement of the phase generator. Each of the 9 accumulators 20 consists of a 12 bit adder 22 and a 12 bit register 24 (instrumented with D-type flip-flops) The expressions dt, dy and dx represent clock pulses at field rate, twice line rate and element rate, respectively. Additional D-type flip-flops clocked at element rate are required merely to retime the data in high speed parts of the circuit. The three (4 bit) NAND gates 26 fed with xref and yref allow the origins of x and y to be moved from the top left-hand corner of the picture to a point 256 elements to the right and/or 256 lines down. These gates each subtract in an adder 28 from the output of an associated accumulator 256 times the input, so that the output only reaches zero after accumulating for 256 clock periods.
FIGS. 3A and 3B show the overall block diagram of the preferred equipment. The generation of the phase function occupies two printed circuit boards.
The output of the phase generators 30,32 passes to a waveform control board 34 whose main function is to generate sine waves by using the phase to address a Read Only Memory (ROM) programmed with the values of sin φ. The waveform control board 34 also contains two other ROM's which can be programmed with any other function, e.g. gamma corrected sine waves (sin 1/8 φ). It can also generate simple functions such as square waves, sawtooth waves and triangular waves without the use of a ROM. The gain and sit level of the output can also be controlled. During the back porch period of the video signal, the input to the sin ROM is switched to the output of a subcarrier phase generator 36 circuit to produce a colour burst.
The waveform control board also gates in synchronising pulses from a pulse generator 38.
At the output of the waveform control board 34 the transitions between synchronising pulses, colour bursts and active picture are much more abrupt than called for by the TV system specification. An edge shaping circuit 40 makes the beginning and end of each sync pulse, colour burst and active line fade smoothly from black. So that this does not make each of these periods too short, the waveform control circuit is deliberately misadjusted to generate extra long syncs, bursts and active lines.
All of these operations are controlled by the pulse generator 38 which produces clock pulses at some convenient multiple of line frequency (e.g. 851æfn) and from them produces all the necessary control waveforms using counters and Read Only Memories.
The digital output of the edge shaper 40 may be used directly to test digital systems or be fed to an internal digital-to-analogue converter (d.a.c.) 42 and output filter 44 to produce an analogue test signal.
The generator illustrated is thus a very sophisticated and highly versatile piece of equipment. But it would still be a very valuable piece of test equipment even without sync and burst insertion and edge shaping.
FIGS. 4A and 4B illustrate some of the most useful of the almost infinite variety of test patterns that the generator can produce. Each of the ten coefficients is controlled by a sixteen position switch, which gives a total of 1012 possible combinations. Each of the patterns shown may be positioned anywhere in the screen. An attempt has been made to illustrate this by showing the screen in two different positions; one with the top left-hand corner coincident with the centre of the pattern (i.e. x=y=0) and one (dotted) with it offset to show the area around the centre. The patterns are drawn with fine lines whereas the actual waveforms may be square, sawtooth, triangular, sine or any other waveshape that can be stored in a ROM.
The arrows indicate how the patterns move when the term kt ñt is added. The length of each arrow is proportional to the speed of movement. Adding the term kt.spsb.2 ñt2 makes the patterns move in the same way as shown, but the speed changes continuously with time. The first two patterns in the bottom row show the two moving patterns numbered (7) and (8) above.
It will be seen from the above that the signal generator can provide an extremely wide range of test patterns. Those which relate line to line and field to field terms, i.e. those concerned with vertical and temporal information, are especially useful in assessing the capabilities of the more sophisticated types of signal processing currently in use and envisaged. The ability to include more complex and varied terms than hitherto provides very real and practical advantages enabling a surprising and satisfying improvement to the permissible forms of testing to be obtained.

|Frontier Brain
|First Appearance:
|Deprogramming Porygon-Z
Caitlin is a character appearing in Pokémon Adventures, who is a member of the Elite Four in the Unova region and was a Frontier Brain of the Battle Frontier in the Sinnoh region.
Caitlin appears as a girl with long, wavy, blonde hair that reaches her feet.
Black and White
She wears a large, fluffy, pale pink hat atop her head. Her eyes are in the color of vivid blue and her skin is pale. She wears white clothes with long sleeves, a collar and a transparent pink cape. She also has a large white ribbon tied around her waist and a long skirt that is cut in the middle, resembling two flower petals. In addition, she wears a long skirt with a dark shade of pink and matching-colored wedges heels with brown soles. She has accessories clipped on the ends of her hair that bear the resemblance of pink butterfly wings that flutter. Caitlin is usually seen with a drowsy and calm face.

Platinum arc
She heard Looker call "Lady" and mistakenly thought he was speaking to her. Looker apologized for the misunderstanding, reaching out to pat her shoulder, and Caitlin's Gallade, considering him a threat, stripped Looker down to his underwear. Caitlin then walked with Gallade into the Battle Castle, where she watched Platinum and the other challengers battle.
For the sixth battle of Platinum's second set, Caitlin awarded her 26 BP. Caitlin watched Platinum fight Darach. Afterwards, she explained Platinum's strategy to Looker.

Black & White arc
Caitlin first appeared at the Pokémon League in discussion with the other Elite Four members. She said that she wasn't bothered by Alder's defeat and subsequent abandonment of the League—that was inevitable—but she was worried about the effect it had on the people of Unova, as the audience for the Pokémon League tournament was unusually small.
When Marshal suggested that they stop Team Plasma, whose speeches had taken effect, Caitlin pointed out that Team Plasma has the right to hold their own opinions. However, she was not willing to stand by and allow the kidnapping of the Gym Leaders. With the help of her Gothitelle, Caitlin psychically searched for the Gym Leaders and was able to determine that they are still somewhere in Unova. She was also able to convey a message from them: "Help."

Yes, admission to the Dental Hygiene program is limited. The College does not have space in this program for all people who apply, therefore a selective admission process is administered based on cumulative GPA, laboratory science grades, and standardized Test of Essential Academic Skills (TEAS) scores. Please refer to the Applicant Information for specific admission requirements.
Some colleges and universities such as Thomas Edison, Montclair State University, Rutgers SHRP, and New Jersey City University will apply the courses the student has taken toward a bachelor's degree.
Students will study comprehensive didactic, laboratory and clinic courses in dental hygiene and the dental sciences presented by highly qualified dental hygienists and dentists. State-of-the-art equipment is used in our on-site dental hygiene clinic and laboratories. Students will have additional clinical experiences in local hospitals and public schools. Basic science and general education requirements complete the course of study.
Once students complete developmental coursework (if needed), the degree can be completed in two years of full-time study.
Students must meet the Academic Standards of Progress outlined to progress through the curriculum. Students are also required to have completed CPR for the Health Care Provider and complete the health physical and required immunizations prior to starting classes.

Due to the nature of clinical experiences in the Dental Hygiene Program, students will be participating in a work environment that has the potential of exposure to bloodborne pathogens and infectious diseases. All students accepted into the Dental Hygiene Program are provided with instruction on infection control protocols specific to Dental Hygiene in order to reduce the risk of disease transmission.
A student is required to have a criminal background check performed with satisfactory results acceptable by Middlesex County College and the Dental Hygiene Department and/or participating clinical facilities as a consideration of admission, initial enrollment and/or continued enrollment. An offer of admission will not be final and enrollment not permitted until the completion of a satisfactory criminal background check. Admission may be denied or rescinded or enrollment terminated based on the results of the criminal background check.
