1. Field of the Invention
The invention is directed to a circuit supplied with direct voltage for generating voltages and/or currents with different curve forms and/or different frequencies and/or different polarities, with at least one load.
2. Description of Related Art
In many technological and research fields, it is essential and important to have available voltages and currents which are controllable within wide limits, as far as their magnitude and their progression as a function of time is concerned. Without any claims of completeness, several application areas are enumerated here: regulation of DC current motors with reversible directions of rotation; regulation of alternating current motors as far as their rpm and directions of rotation are concerned; low frequency currents or voltages for research and investigation work, for instance in the biological field; direct current supplies for gas discharge lamps and their brightness regulation; testing of electrical apparatus with complex resistance behavior over wide frequency ranges and more of the same.
An object of the invention is to develop a circuit proceeding from a direct voltage supply, with which the solution of the task is possible. The invention is characterized by a choke coil arranged in series with this load and at least two controlled semiconductor switches, which each lie in a series circuit as far as the load and the choke coil are concerned. However, these two switches lie in different current paths and these current paths are connected at differing potentials of the supply voltage, wherein, in actual operation, one switch is held open while the other switch is opened and closed in alternating sequence, and, after the termination of an adjustable or selectable time period the switch which has hitherto been actuated in alternating sequence (clock pulse frequency) is kept open, while the hitherto held open switch is, in alternating sequence, opened and closed, this alternating sequence of switch actuation (polarity reversal frequency) being continuously repeated. With such a circuit according to the invention, voltages and currents of whatever progression can be produced at a load. The respective continuous on and off switching of one of the semiconductor switches provided in pairs is designated as the clock pulse frequency herein while the alternating sequence of putting into operation of the two semiconductor switches provided in pairs is designated as the polarity reversal frequency.
A particularly simple circuit of this type is characterized in accordance with a feature of the invention by the current path containing the load and the choke in series arrangement being connected at an average value of the supply voltage. With such a circuit, currents and voltages of very low frequency (lower than 20 Hertz) can be obtained without requiring any particular switching complications, however the output which can be handled by this circuit is limited.
An additional circuit of this type also suitable for low outputs and particularly low frequencies is characterized, in accordance with an additional feature of the invention, by the current path containing the load and the choke in series arrangement being connected at different potentials of the supply voltage through at least two condensers, which each lie in series, as far as the load and the choke coil are concerned, but which, however, lie in different current paths, wherein the condensers are connected at the same potentials of the supply voltage as the controlled semiconductor switches.
Another circuit, which satisfies all requirements as far as the output and variation possibilities are concerned, is characterized, in accordance with an additional feature of the invention, in that the current path containing the load and the choke in series arrangement is connected at differing potentials of the supply voltage through two additional controllable semiconductor switches, which each lie in series arrangement with respect to the load and the choke coil, but which, however, lie in different current paths, wherein these additional semiconductor switches are opened or closed in the period of the polarity reversal frequency of the other semiconductor switches and thus form, respectively, a closed current circuit in connection with the load and the choke coil, in which the direction of the current flow changes in accordance with the polarity reversal frequency.
If a condenser is connected in parallel with a load, then the current and/or the voltage is smoothed out; a similar effect is achieved if a condenser is connected between the choke and the load whose other electrode is connected with the connection point for the supply of voltage which exhibits the lower voltage of the two connection points of this supply voltage.
There are semiconductor switches into which recovery diodes are integrated; if however semiconductor switches are utilized for the circuit in accordance with the invention into which no such recovery diodes are integrated, it is then provided according to a further feature of the invention, that at least one recovery diode is arranged in parallel with each of the semiconductor switches which are periodically actuated in alternating sequence (clock pulse frequency). This measure prevents that the load current is interrupted during polarity reversal of the cyclically actuated semiconductor switches arranged in pairs.
The magnitude of the ratio of the polarity reversal frequency to the clock pulse frequency or timing frequency determines the regulation quality of the circuit; the larger this ratio is, the smaller the choke can be made. It is therefore desirable to arrange this ratio at approximately 1:1000, or preferably even higher.
The invention is described with particularity with the help of the drawings, in which:
FIG. 1, FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 show three different embodiments of the invention;
FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 show voltage- or current flow diagrams;
FIG. 6 shows a pulse diagram for the cycle control of the semiconductor switches; and
FIG. 7 shows a detail from the current flow diagram according to FIG. 5 at a greatly magnified scale.
FIG. 1 illustrates a first embodiment example of a circuit according to the invention. A battery B with a central tap and with the terminal voltage U serves here as a voltage source. The line branch 3, comprising a choke D and a load L in series, is, on the one hand, connected to the central tap of the battery B, and, on the other hand, between two control semiconductor switches T1 and T2, of which each is connected with one respective terminal of the battery B so that each semiconductor switch lies in a series circuit with the choke D and the load L. The control of the semiconductor switches T1 and T2 is additionally explained in detail in the following. For the time being, it has to be stated that during the first time period in a first mode, the semiconductor switch T1 is cyclically continuously opened and closed (clock pulse frequency) and during this time period, the other semiconductor switch T2 is kept open. This continuous opening and closing of the one switch, while the other switch is open, is here and in what follows designated as clock pulse frequency. After termination of this first time period, in a second mode, the switch T1 is held open, wherein now the other switch T2 is continuously opened and closed. These modes are actuated cyclically. This change in the actuation of the switches T1 and T2 is here and in the following designated as polarity reversal frequency. This process can now be repeated as often as desired. While the one semiconductor switch T1 is actuated cyclically, current flows in the one direction (arrow 4) through the load L. While the semiconductor switch T2 is operated cyclically, the current flows in the opposite direction through the load L. The magnitude of the load current depends now, on the one hand, on the inductance of the choke and the clock pulse frequency of the switches T1 and T2 ; the time period of current flow in, respectively, one direction depends on the polarity reversal frequency. The clock pulse frequency as well as the polarity reversal frequency are controllable by different magnitudes, which will be additionally dealt with in the following.
An additional circuit with which, in particular, low frequency voltages or currents starting from a direct voltage can be obtained is shown in FIG. 2. The voltage U is applied to the terminals XY of the circuit, recovery diodes D1 and D2 are provided in parallel to the semiconductor switches T1 and T2. One condenser C each is arranged in series with the load L and the choke D in different current circuits, so that the current path comprising the load and the choke in series is connected at different potentials of the supply voltage through the two condensers, which each are in series as far as the load and the choke are concerned, but, however, which lie in different current paths, wherein the condensers C are connected to the same potentials of the supply voltage U as the controlled semiconductor switches T1 and T2. In this circuit also the controlled semiconductor switches T1 and T2 are actuated in the sense of the clock pulse frequency and the polarity reversal frequency mentioned above. The frequency of the voltage existing at the load L is herein dependent, among other things, on the capacity and the time constant of the condensers.
A circuit which can satisfy all the requirements, and which constitute a direct refinement of the previously explained circuits, is now shown in FIG. 3.
This circuit, supplied with constant voltage, is designed as a bridge circuit. In each outer branch of this bridge voltage a transistor T1 to T4 is arranged. Two of these transistors, namely the transistors T1 and T2 which lie between the connecting points X and Y for the supply voltage U, comprises recovery diodes D1 and D2 arranged in parallel to said transistors. Diodes D3 and R4 are arranged in parallel with the other two transistors T3 and T4, for purposes of protection. The bases B1 to B4 of the transistors T1 to T4 are, for instance, connected with integrated circuits, which, however, are not shown here. The load L is connected at the terminals A and E in the diagonal branch of the bridge circuit. Here also ohmic, inductive and capacitive resistances can be used as a load, but also such which exhibit a complex resistance behavior. The choke D is connected between the terminal A and the point of connection F between the two transistors T1 and T2 serving as semiconductor switches. Additionally there is a condenser C provided here in parallel to the load. Another condenser C may be provided instead of the condenser parallel with the load L, whose one electrode lies between the load L and the choke D and whose other electrode lies at the point of connection Y for the supply voltage U, which point of connection exhibits the lower potential. This is indicated in FIG. 3 with a broken line. In industrial operation use of the circuit, the transistors T1 and T2, serving as semiconductor switches, are actuated in the sense of the clock pulse frequency and polarity reversal frequency described above. Contrary to that, the transistors T3 and T4, serving as semiconductor switches, are correspondingly switched only in accordance with the polarity reversal frequency.
FIG. 6 illustrates a pulse sequence with which the bases of the transistors T1 and T2 can be controlled. Here PD signifies the duration of the period; ED the duration of the duty cycle (pulse length) and TL the time interval between pulses. The ratio between the duty cycle ED and the periodic cycle PD is designated as the pulse duty factor. This pulse duty factor is adjustable and changeable with the integrated circuit not shown here but which has been mentioned by way of an example.
The circuit in FIG. 3, explained above as far as its basic structure is concerned, is now to be used for operating a gas discharge lamp supplied with direct voltage, which has been symbolized in FIG. 3 by the load L. Operation of a gas discharge lamp with direct voltage is to be preferred to operating it with alternating voltage, since in that case the gas discharge lamp flickers less and has a higher light output. The only disadvantage is that during continuous operation with direct voltage deposits accumulate in the electrode area of the gas discharge lamp caused by the flow of ions which is always in the same direction. In order to avoid these deposits the lamp is repeatedly reversed in polarity, for which purpose up to now mechanical switches have been used. With the help of the described circuit this now occurs, in detail, by way of electronic operation, as follows:
The direct voltage U being applied to the terminals X, Y can either be drawn from a power supply source, it can however also be made available by a converter (alternating current/direct current converter). The transistors T1 to T4 serve as electronic switches and their bases are controlled by the magnitude of the operating current through pulse sequences according to FIG. 6. In the first phase of the operation the transistors T1 and T4 are closed and the transistors T2 and T3, on the other hand, are held open. In addition to the transistor T1 or its basis B1 is herein controlled by the pulse sequence shown in FIG. 6. During the duty cycle ED of a pulse, the transistor T1 is closed and direct current flows from the terminal X through the transistor T1, the choke D and the lamp L through the transistor T4 which is held closed during this operational phase, to the terminal Y. Prior to reaching the rated magnitude of the lamp operating current, that is--viewed timewise--at the end of the duty cycle ED of the control pulse, the transistor T1 opens, the current flow from the power supply source is interrupted and the magnetic energy built up in the choke D by the current flow is now converted into electrical energy and supplies an opposing voltage, which maintains the current flow through the lamp L in the same direction up to the start of the duty cycle time of the next control pulse, meaning that during the interval TL between duty cycles, in the course of which, the energy stored in the choke is used up. Now the transistor T1 is again switched on by the next following control pulse at the base B1 of the transistor T1, the transistor T1 being again closed and therein new energy and current is supplied from the power source to the circuit in the manner described, up to shortly before reaching the rated magnitude of the lamp operational current, whereupon the mentioned switch-over process is again initiated and performed. During this time, current always flows in the same direction through the lamp L. The control processes described are very short and occur in fractions of seconds. During this first phase, while the transistor T1 is continuously cyclically opened and closed, the transistor T4 remains closed. In order to avoid the mentioned damaging deposits because of direct voltage operation of the gas discharge lamp, after a certain time, the polarity of the lamp L is changed. This occurs by opening the transistors T1 and T4, closing the transistor T3 and the transistor T2 is now cyclically controlled through its base B2 as it has been described in connection with transistor T1. The current flow in the lamp is thereby reversed. If a gas discharge lamp is used as load L, one can eliminate the condenser C in the type of operation described here.
If the periodic duration PD of the control pulse (clock pulse frequency) depends on the time constant of the choke D, then the polarity reversal frequency can, for instance, be derived and controlled from the power source frequency, if the direct voltage at the terminals XY of the circuit is obtained by an alternating current--direct current converter (not shown). Also, other control frequencies for the polarity reversal can be utilized with success. The duration of the period of the polarity reversal frequency is therein always greater than the duration of the period of the control pulses (clock pulse frequency). If the diodes D1 and D2 connected in parallel with transistors T1 and T2 serve as recovery diodes which maintain the current flow when the transistors T1 and T2 open and close controlled by the pulses, then the diodes D3 and D4 in parallel with the transistor T3 and T4 fulfill a protective function.
The current flow through the gas discharge lamp L in accordance with the circuit in FIG. 3 and the type of operation described above is depicted schematically in FIG. 5. Viewed overall, we are dealing here with a trapezoid-shaped progression with changing plus or minus signs. The period P of the sequence depends on the polarity change frequency. If the current flow, shown in the illustration with a straight line, is, so to speak, represented in a magnified manner, then there results a line which is shown in FIG. 7 and which represents the segments G encircled in the FIG. 5, so to speak, at a larger scale. This line extends in a jagged manner, its rise or fall is determined by the resistance behavior of the choke D and the load L, its reversal points depending on the clock pulse frequency and its smoothness (shaded areas) is determined by the smoothing-out condensers C according to the circuit in FIG. 3.
Instead of the current flow, as it is snown in FIG. 5, a voltage progression can, for instance, also be forced as it is illustrated in FIG. 4.
For controlling the clock pulse frequency or the polarity reversal frequency, electrical magnitudes inherent in the circuit can be utilized; these are thus magnitudes which can for instance be measured at the load L, such as voltage, voltage rise, current current rise, effective- or apparent load. In the embodiment example explained above in connection with FIG. 3, the load current was utilized for controlling the clock pulse frequency for the semiconductor switches T1 and T4, meaning the semiconductor switches T1 and T4 were cyclically opened, respectively, before the load current, had reached the lamp rated current and they were again switched back into the circuit as soon as the load current had somewhat diminished. The current values at which switching on or switching off occurred are designated in the illustration in FIG. 7 with IE or IA. The polarity reversal frequency (P--FIG. 5) was derived from the frequency of a conventional alternating current voltage supply network with 50 Hertz. A control by a magnitude not depending upon the circuit in this case the line frequency of an alternating current voltage supply network is designated as external excitation.
In the circuit in FIG. 2, on the other hand, the polarity reversal frequency can be controlled by the voltage rise at the condensers C (natural frequency). Other control possibilities for the cycling frequency result from the selection of the ratio of the switch on duration ED to the switch off duration TL or, however, through changing the pulse duration PD (pulse width modulation). Programmable processes are appropriately utilized for controlling the clock pulse frequency, with the help of which regulation curves and control curves of any desired shape can be obtained. If previously the operation of the gas discharge lamp L has been explained with particularity with the help of FIG. 3, then it has to be mentioned at this time, that also other apparatus and devices can be used by way of a load. For instance, an alternating current, motor which can be supplied with alternating current voltage changing as far as its frequency and magnitude is concerned, can be used in order to regulate rpm and torque of the motor within wide limits.
Reverting to the embodiment example in FIG. 3 and the operation of a gas discharge lamp L with the circuit shown here, it has to be additionally mentioned, by way of a supplement: it is achieved by changing the polarity of the switches T1 and T2 or T3 and T4 that current flows through the lamp in changing sequence and in changing direction depending on the polarity reversal frequency of the switches, so that the undesirable deposits at the electrodes can be prevented. The brightness of these lamps can be regulated also in a simple manner with the mentioned circuit, by, for instance, shortening the switch on duration ED of the control pulse for the cyclic control of the semiconductor switches.
It is possible to control and regulate the clock pulse frequency and/or the polarity reversal frequency by magnitudes entirely independent of the circuit. Processors serve for this purpose which can be programmed as desired so that control curves of the most diverse shapes can be obtained. This can be carried so far that the clock pulse frequency exhibits a non-periodic behavior, this also applies to the polarity reversal frequency provided both are controlled and influenced by magnitudes independent of the circuit therefor from the outside.

An out-of-core sparse Cholesky solver
Cholesky decomposition
In linear algebra, the Cholesky decomposition or Cholesky triangle is a decomposition of a Hermitian, positive-definite matrix into the product of a lower triangular matrix and its conjugate transpose. It was discovered by André-Louis Cholesky for real matrices. When it is applicable, the Cholesky decomposition is roughly twice as efficient as the LU decomposition for solving systems of linear equations.

Out-of-core algorithm
Out-of-core or External memory algorithms are algorithms that are designed to process data that is too large to fit into a computer's main memory at one time. Such algorithms must be optimized to efficiently fetch and access data stored in slow bulk memory such as hard drive or tape drives. A typical example is geographic information systems, especially digital elevation models, where the full data set easily exceeds several gigabytes or even terabytes of data.
more from Wikipedia
Positive-definite matrix
In linear algebra, a positive-definite matrix is a matrix that in many ways is analogous to a positive real number. The notion is closely related to a positive-definite symmetric bilinear form (or a sesquilinear form in the complex case). The proper definition of positive-definite is unambiguous for Hermitian matrices, but there is no agreement in the literature on how this should be extended for non-Hermitian matrices, if at all. (See the section Non-Hermitian matrices below.)

Sparse matrix
In the subfield of numerical analysis, a sparse matrix is a matrix populated primarily with zeros. The term itself was coined by Harry M. Markowitz. Conceptually, sparsity corresponds to systems which are loosely coupled. Consider a line of balls connected by springs from one to the next; this is a sparse system. By contrast, if the same line of balls had springs connecting each ball to all other balls, the system would be represented by a dense matrix.

Virtual memory
In computing, virtual memory is a memory management technique developed for multitasking kernels. This technique virtualizes a computer architecture's various forms of computer data storage, allowing a program to be designed as though there is only one kind of memory, "virtual" memory, which behaves like directly addressable read/write memory (RAM). Most modern operating systems that support virtual memory also run each process in its own dedicated address space.
more from Wikipedia
In computing, input/output, or I/O, refers to the communication between an information processing system (such as a computer), and the outside world, possibly a human, or another information processing system. Inputs are the signals or data received by the system, and outputs are the signals or data sent from it. The term can also be used as part of an action; to "perform I/O" is to perform an input or output operation.

Review: R. Kelly Holds Nothing Back on 'Double Up'
R. Kelly: "Double Up"
Producers: various
Release Date: May 29
Aside from radio-pumped singles "I'm a Flirt Remix" and "Same Girl," it's a very sexually explicit R. Kelly who greets fans on this outing. Opening with the short posturing track "The Champ" ("I've been through hell in the belly of the beast/You can hate me, I don't care"), Kelly isn't shy about quickly getting down to boudoir business. The title track with Snoop Dogg outlines a tryst with two females, while additional variations on sexual interplay abound on such cuts as "Tryin' to Get a Number" with Nelly and "Freaky in the Club." After describing lovemaking via two radically different motifs -- the jungle ("The Zoo") and outer space ("Sex Planet") -- Kelly downshifts into traditional mode on the heartfelt ballad "Havin' a Baby" and the Virginia Tech anthem "Rise Up." This jarring juxtaposition only underscores Kelly's Marvin Gaye-reminiscent struggle between the carnal and the spiritual. --Gail Mitchell

Comments about 'LDS Church issues instructions to leaders on same-sex marriage'
- Oldest first
- Newest first
- Most recommended
Why do you think gay marriage will cause "great calamities?" Are you saying gays are up there in evil with murderers, thieves, drug dealers, and terrorists, to name a few groups of very evil people? And are you really letting off the hook the greedy Wall Streeters, politicians, big-business polluters, and [gasp] leaders who rule mercifullessly to force religious convictions into law? They might have something to do with "great calamities" happening present day. Looking at everything in perspective, is gay marriage really what your God has said is the line in the sand before said "great calamities" are wreaked on us? If you are looking to convince people who are non-mormons, you'll have to go beyond citing mormon scripture to convince us to do things that hurt our neighbors just to fall in line with your beliefs. If it really is a threat to humanity, we'll listen.

Amen! Only God (the Great "I AM")knows what is best for man and women, whom He created. Just read His instructions in the Holy Bible where He describes the details of His creation in Genesis 1:27 & Genesis 2:22. Praise God from whom all blessings flow!

Home Depot To Close 7 Stores In China
Home Depot, the U.S.-based home improvement big box chain, said it will close seven of its stores in China. The company says they're moving away from the "do-it-yourself" model in China.
NPR's business news starts with a do-it-yourself downsizing.
INSKEEP: Home Depot, the U.S.-based home improvement big box chain, says it's going to leave some big boxes behind. It's going to close seven of its stores in China. The company says it's moving away from the do-it-yourself model in China.
A spokesman tells the Wall Street Journal the Chinese market with its massive cheap labor pool, is more of a do-it-for-me culture. The closures also come at a time of slowing economic growth in China.

The former Super Eagles midfielder claims the responsibility for his country's dour 0-0 draw with Iran lies solely at the feet of their coach, slamming his tactical approachJay-Jay Okocha has critcised Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi for his side's poor performance in their 0-0 stalemate with Iran on Monday.
The first stalemate of the 2014 World Cup was a turgid affair with the reigning Africa Cup of Nations champions struggling to carve out meaningful opportunities.
|Keep up with all the latest news from Brazil and get involved in the debate on Twitter with our new World Cup Social Hub
"We were poor but we hope to get better as the tournament progresses," the 40-year-old told BBC Sport.
"This was a must-win for Nigeria but we did not take it. We did not do enough in terms of our tactical play. Keshi did not do enough work on the team."
Okocha, who scored 14 in 74 games for Nigeria, now is on the technical committee of the Nigeria Football Federation and gave a damning assessment of Keshi's overall decision-making.
"[Peter Odemwingie] was more creative when he came in, and we needed more in this game," the fromer Bolton Wanderers midfielder added.
"The tactical play of Eagles was so bad, I hold Keshi responsible for this."

Approaches to Teaching Dickens's Bleak House
- Editors: John O. Jordan, Gordon Bigelow
- Pages: vii & 230 pp.
- Published: 2008
- ISBN: 9781603290142 (Paperback)
- ISBN: 9781603290135 (Cloth)
"This splendid volume of essays does more to highlight Dickens's dazzling achievement in Bleak House than any critical intervention I have encountered. I found practices that will translate into my own teaching regardless of differences in context."
"Offers a wide range of creative, practical, and inviting strategies for teaching Dickens's behemoth."
A central text both in Dickens's career and in the history of the novel itself, Bleak House provides students and teachers occasion to discuss Victorian social concerns involving law, crime, family, education, and money and to learn about every stratum of English society, from the aristocracy to the homeless. But the sheer size of the novel and its narrative intricacy pose pedagogical obstacles. The essays in this volume offer instructors an array of practical strategies for use in the classroom: some describe courses organized exclusively around Bleak House; others offer ideas for teaching a single scene or topic in the novel.
Part 1, "Materials," assesses editions and provides a guide to the wealth of resources available to instructors, including reference works, critical studies, and background readings, in print and on the Web. The essays in part 2, "Approaches," discuss nineteenth-century British culture and Victorian social texts; present ways to teach specific scenes, patterns, and problems in the novel; describe intertextual approaches; and detail specific courses taught in different settings and at a variety of educational levels.

This bountiful and definitive book is the fruit of 40 years of traveling, eating, listening to stories, recording recipes, and watching cooks all over the Middle East. Claudia Roden brings together the distinctive flavors of several cuisines, including North Africa's harissa and preserved lemons, Turkey's cinnamon and allspice, and Iran's pomegranate syrup. She also evokes the context of the Middle Eastern way of life: its conviviality, hospitality, traditions, sensuality, and reverence for food.
Roden's classic A Book of Middle Eastern Food, first published in this country in 1972, made available recipes that were traditionally passed down orally within families. At the time, the term "Middle Eastern food" was more likely to summon up images of sheep's eyeballs than of falafel and stuffed grape leaves. The book was a revelation to English and American audiences. This new edition updates and expands the original (an interim edition was published in 1985), with more recipes and variations, and a greater focus on simple dishes. Anticipating objections that she has meddled with tradition by reducing the amount of oil in the recipes, Roden tells us, "Cooking does not stand still: it evolves." Other dishes are now more authentic because Middle Eastern ingredients are more widely available, making substitutions unnecessary; if you don't have a Middle Eastern grocery nearby, there's always the Internet.
Scattered among the recipes are proverbs, brief folktales about a character Egyptians call Goha, notes about ingredients, and riddles. One sidebar discusses the "dadas," the black women who are the great cooks and repositories of culinary tradition in Morocco; another recalls a "fantastic, magical" symposium of regional Turkish food, traveling to factory and palace kitchens, with whirling dervishes as well as lectures. An extensive introduction explains the impact of Middle Eastern food upon European cooking, including marzipan and even British mince pies and mint sauce for lamb. It also traces influences upon the enormous variety of Middle Eastern food, from austere Bedouin fare to the Iranian dishes that were the haute cuisine of refined Muslim courts.
Interestingly, the book combines the voices of Claudia Roden of 30 years ago and the Claudia Roden of today, a woman in her prime. As she notes, the first edition reflects an idealistic young Egyptian woman's longing and passion for the Middle Eastern food and culture from which she felt exiled. Roden today is more restrained and pragmatic, less nostalgic. She wants the recipes to live in use, and she encourages readers to adapt them to taste, as Middle Eastern cooks have always personalized their dishes. For us to receive these recipes -- traditionally passed from mother to daughter -- from Roden in both stages of her life enriches the book's conjoined sense of history and intimacy. Middle Eastern cuisine is steeped in tradition, and yet, because it is a human art, also various and evolving. The New Book of Middle Eastern Food is Roden's lifework, and what a splendid and savory life it is.

text: DETROIT TheStreet) -- Ford ( F) is urging shareholders to reject a mini-tender offer by a Canadian firm that specializes in such attempts. The firm, TRC Capital, has also made mini-tender offers for companies including US Steel ( X) and Marathan Petroleum ( MPC), which also recommended against. Such offers are for less than 5% of a company's outstanding stock and therefore are subject to less stringent oversight by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Ford is urging shareholders to reject a mini-tender offer by a Canadian firm that specializes in such attempts. In Ford's case, the offer price was $11.70, about 4.5% below the $12.25 closing price on Feb. 28, which is approximately when the offer commenced. In mid-afternoon trading Thursday, Ford shares were up 23 cents at $12.47. "Bidders make mini-tender offers at below-market prices, hoping that they will catch investors off-guard if the investors do not compare the offer price to the current market price," the SEC has said. In a press release, Ford noted that the offers can be terminated for a variety of reasons and that, because SEC oversight is limited, "mini-tender offers do not provide investors with the same level of protections as provided by larger tender offers under United States securities laws." TRC's offer is for up to 8 million shares, about a fifth of 1% of Ford's outstanding shares. >To contact the writer of this article, click here: Ted Reed >To follow the writer on Twitter, go to http://twitter.com/tedreednc. >To contact the writer of this article, click here: Ted Reed >To submit a news tip, email: firstname.lastname@example.com.

Cape Verde coach Lucio Antunes said Friday that his team are on course to win the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations.
The Blue Sharks have been the biggest revelation of this competition as they advanced to the knockout stage at the first attempt and face Ghana here Saturday in the quarter-finals.
And Antunes says his team are on track to achieve even more in South Africa.
"We're going to the final. We're going to win this tournament. We're now more confident than before," said the Cape Verde handler.
Antunes has been congratulated by Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho, who invited the Cape Verdean to spend one week with him in Spain ahead of the Cup of Nations.
"Last year, Zambia were the best team and they won. They are now out and Cape Verde are still in and getting stronger and stronger."
Cape Verde skipper Nando added: "We're here to carry on. We're here to stay. We have already eliminated two teams who were rated better than us and we still wish to cause surprises."
Antunes praised Ghana, four time champions and one of the tournament favourites.
"Ghana are a very strong, organised team and very well managed by Kwesi Appiah. We played them in November in Lisbon and we lost 1-0.
"However, we're now on the same level (as Ghana)," said Antunes.

"The Jason Lee McKinney Band has teetered against the edges of several different genres on their previous releases with an alt country sound that touched on rock, singer/songwriter and Texas country. However, their double volume release Play Something You Believe mashes all of those influences together into one ambitious 19-song collection. Volume 1, the electric edition of this release, pulls together an eclectic blend of styles to create a different feel from song to song, but a feel that somehow plays off of one another quite well....Volume 2, the acoustic edition of this release, gives us an entirely different look at what their arsenal has to offer....Regardless of which volume you prefer, the songs are all designed to grab your attention whether it's through a toe-tapping melody or heartstring pulling lyric. The Band took major chances with this release and the risks have paid off as they have defined their solid songwriting and take a large step forward........"

I've just come to the end of a large development project. We were on a tight timeline, so a lot of optimization was "deferred". Now that we met our deadline, we're going back and trying to optimize things.
My questions is this: What are some of the most important things you look for when optimizing jQuery web sites. Alternately I'd love to hear of sites/lists that have particularly good advise for optimizing jQuery.
I've already read a few articles, http://www.tvidesign.co.uk/blog/improve-your-jquery-25-excellent-tips.aspx was an especially good read.

Work began last week in Bar Harbor on a new hotel, which necessitated the destruction of several homes. Though this development was permitted according to the local zoning regulations, is it good for Bar Harbor? If the downtown is dominated by high-end hotels, will it lose its charm, its character? Or will market forces effectively create a balance?
Is Bar Harbor at risk of losing its character?

In honor of National Inclusive Schools Week, December 7-11, 2015, CIDSO has recognized local teachers who promote inclusion at their school. This recognition is for school staff who work to be sure students with special needs are included with their typical peer in the classroom and other school activities. This involves modification of regular education curriculum and modifying activities so special needs students can be included with their peers throughout the school day.
