Sample text - The boy's story
Sea of Trees
There was a deep, deep forest.
It possessed a canopy so thick, the light of the sun could not even pass through.
Always shrouded by heavy mist; a mysterious forest indeed.
It was always eerily quiet; there was no sign of life.
No humans, no insects, no birds… no one at all.
The locals called this strange forest the 'Sea of Trees'.
No one dared to venture into it, for they feared what they would find inside.
It was in this forest where our story begins.
One day, a lone traveller, who had embarked on a long journey, had wandered into this forest. Being unfamiliar with the place, he soon found himself terribly lost; he had no idea where to go.
It was already nightfall, and the mist had started to thicken.
It would do him no good if he simply wandered about aimlessly. He was probably in the deeper parts of the forest; it could be dangerous if he is not careful.
Letting out a large sigh, he slumped against the trunk of a large tree, running his hands through his messy dark-red hair.
He should get some sleep, a little bit of rest might do him good.
He let his body slide down, so that he was sitting amongst the pile of dried leaves that had fallen from the branches above.
He closed his eyes, feeling the still air around him stir up a little.
When he opened them again, he found a pair of large eyes staring straight into his own.
"UWAH!" He exclaimed, pulling his head away.
What a surprise it had been, to find someone hovering over him.
He had thought it to be a ghost of sorts, but when he took a better look, he realized that it was a boy with light blue hair and matching eyes. He was wearing a collared shirt, which was in a similar shade of blue, tucked into a pair of black pants.
"Good day," the strange boy greeted. "Pleased to meet you."
"W-Who are you? Where did you come from? How long have you been here?!"
"You ask too many questions," the boy sighed as he sat down next to the traveller. "How do you expect me to answer all of them?"
"Let's start with who you are, first."
"My name is Kuroko. Kuroko Tetsuya. Yours?"
"Kagami Taiga."
"Kagami? As in 'mirror'?"
"No. You write it with the kanji for 'fire' and 'god'. How about yours? Surely it is not the same characters that is used to write 'stage hands', is it?"
"It is."
"Putting that topic aside, for what reason are you doing here?"
"I could ask you the same question. What's a kid like you doing here?"
"I would appreciate it if you do not refer to me as a child."
"How old are you?"
"I am in my last year of Middle School."
"You aren't an adult yet, so that qualifies you as still a kid."
"That makes you an old man, then."
"But I do not seem to recognise you. You are not from the nearby village, are you?"
"How'd you know?"
"The none of the adults from the village do not dare to come here at night."
"And why is that?"
"Because it is easy to get lost in this forest. And most people do not wander in forests at night anyway."
"Your face has the words, 'I am such an idiot' written all over it."
"I do not!"
"Really, now?"
"I just happen to be bad with directions, that's all! But wait. What are you doing here, then?"
"I came in search of something."
"What exactly are you looking for?"
"It is a secret."
"Che. Stingy."
"You are acting even more childish than I am. Are you really an adult?" The boy shook his head.
He remained silent for a long, drawn-out moment before he spoke again.
"Say… Would you listen to a story?"
"A story?"
"Yes. A story about this forest."
"I don't… particularly mind."
"Well then…"
The boy took in a deep breath and started to narrate.
This is a true story; one that had occurred twelve years ago. It takes place in the village not far from this forest where our story. There were two boys who were the best of friends. Now, one of them secretly harboured a crush on the other, but the latter had never once realized how his friend felt about him. The boy in love did not want to harm the close relationship they had shared, so he kept his feelings to himself.
Everything changed when the boys were in their second year of Middle School. A new student had transferred into their class. While the boy was wary of the stranger, his friend accepted him into their group. It was obvious, at least to the boy, that his friend was in love with him. As he watched the two of them interact with smiles and laughter, his jealousy grew with each passing day. However, since he hid this under a facade, his friend never realized this.
It was only when his friend had confessed that he and the new student had started dating that everything went downhill.
Why is it not me?
Why must it be him?
Why did you fail to notice how I feel?
Can't you see… Can't you feel how much I long for you?
Why did you have to choose that guy when the person who had always been by your side… is me?
These questions echoed endlessly in the boy's head. They plagued his thoughts, tormenting his very being and rendering him incapable of thinking of anything else.
He started to change on the inside, becoming what one could describe as obsessed and unstable. No one paid attention to this change, and it gradually grew worse. Under that always-calm demeanour lay a bomb awaiting to be triggered.
No one knew when or what would trigger it.
Until his third year of middle school, that is.
That afternoon, he saw the two of them on the school rooftop, embracing and caressing each other's bare skin.
It was a torture for him to witness that act of intimacy.
Consumed by his rage and jealousy, he took out a pair of scissors from his pocket.
He approached the two, surprised by his sudden appearance, and stabbed his friend's lover right in the heart with the scissors.
His friend, shocked by his sudden display of hostility, tried to grab him in an attempt to stop him. It was a rough struggle, but the boy managed to break free and wounded his friend. Even though the original intention was to kill his friend as well, he had hesitated and only left a deep wound in his left shoulder.
After this, the boy fled from the scene and into the forest.
He was never seen alive again.
As the boy finished the story, the traveller started to realize how quiet and still everything was. Not to mention that the mist seemed to have grown thicker than it had been before.
"So…" He gulped a mouthful of saliva, feeling the hair on his skin stand. "What happened to the boy in the story?"
"The boy escaped deep, deep into the forest, where no one would be able to find him easily. There, by the largest tree in the entire forest, he raised his blade to the left side of his neck. Despite his mixed feelings of guilt and glee, he made up his mind. With one, quick flick of the wrist, he took his own life. Blood gushed out from the wound, staining the white blazer and light blue collar of his shirt a fresh red."
"S-Seriously?" The traveller stuttered, his hand covering his mouth in slight nausea.
"It is the truth. In fact, this tree here," The boy stood up and pressed one hand onto the trunk. "Is where it had all happened.
"But how…"
"How did I know all about this? That is a rather ridiculous question. Have you not noticed by now?"
"What?" The traveller got onto his feet, taking a cautious step backwards.
The boy cocked his head to one side, as if questioning his body language.
"Your face shows me that you are confused."
"Of course I am! How would you expect me to notice something that isn't noticeable?!"
But something was indeed strange, the traveller noticed, especially in the way the story was told.
Sure, the boy might have heard of it from someone else, but is it possible to tell it in that much details?
Either he had added extra details to the story, which seemed rather unlikely or…
He looked straight into the boy's eyes, and his stare was returned with a cold one. He felt a shiver run down his spine.
It can't be… can it?
That this boy in front of him is…?
"So… have you figured it out yet?" The boy asked, a chilling smile creeping onto his face as he spoke out those words.
"That's… not possible."
"But what if it is?"
"It's not! There's no way someone dead can return back to the living!"
"No one said anything about a person coming back to life."
"Then…" The traveller's face paled. "A-A ghost?"
"Ghost? Please do not make me laugh. I would prefer if you would use the term 'spirit' instead of that degrading word."
"B-But that means…"
"Yes… It is just as you have thought…"
The boy raised his left hand and grabbed the collar of his shirt, pulling it open to reveal a long gash across the left side of his throat.
The traveller gasped. His body shook with fear as he backed away slowly.
He had to get out of here.
He turned on his heel to escape, but was shocked to find the boy standing in front of him, blocking his path.
"Where do you think you're going?"
"Out of here, of course?"
"You must be joking."
"Do you really think you can escape from here?"
"I believe I can if I try."
"No matter how hard you try, your efforts will only be in vain. You will never be able to escape from this forest."
"Why are you so sure about that?"
"Because you cannot. You are already a part of this forest."
"What do you mean by that?"
The boy pointed his finger upwards, to one of the branches above them.
The traveller squinted to get a better view of what was above. He could only make out the vague silhouette of something, no; someone hanging from above.
"A… corpse?"
"Not just any corpse. Yours."
"W-W-What are you saying? T-T-There's no way…"
"I only speak the truth, my friend."
"B-But it's not possible. I'm… still here, alive…"
"Alive? You are already dead. But it seems that you yourself have not accepted that fact yet. Perhaps it is because you had killed yourself without a firm resolution."
"I… committed suicide?"
"You hung yourself from the branch of a tree. Just like many others had done before you."
"So you…"
"Do not put me in the same category as you. I am very much different from people like you who come here to take your own life."
"Hey…" The boy walked up to the man, wrapping his arms around him.
He looked up and gave him a sweet smile, one that made him feel an intense jolt of fear like none other.
"Stay. Keep me company."
The man tried to pull away from the boy, but he could not move.
"You will not leave here… I will never let you…"
The man protested, but the strength that he had in him started to fade. Slowly, but surely.
"Stay with me. Forever and ever and ever…"
"How many has this been this year?" A policeman sighed, taking off his cap.
Having grown up in the nearby village, he had taken up the responsibility of leading the local search team through this forest to search and collect the bodies of those who had ended their lives in the 'Sea of Trees'.
The place never failed to make him put up his guard: there was always the feeling of something creeping about.
"Officer Aomine!" The policeman turned towards one of the volunteers. "We have taken down the body. We will send it to the morgue immediately. And here are his personal effects, including his identification documents."
"Oh. Thanks for your hard work." The policeman took the zip-lock bag that contained the items.
Opening it, he took out the identification card, scanning through it.
"Kagami Taiga, aged 25. He's about the same age as me… huh…"
The policeman watched solemnly as the volunteers carried the body away.
"Taking his life at this age… what a fool he is."
Raising his right hand, he placed it on the left side of his chest near his shoulder. He had a scar from a deep wound there, given to him by an old friend who had, too, taken his life in this very forest.
Every time he had to come here, he was reminded of him; and how he had obtained this scar.
"How many more will you take with you before you are satisfied… Tetsu?"
Sea of Trees – END
Some extra notes:
- The forest in this story is directly based off Aokigahara, a forest in Japan and a famous suicide spot.
- The story itself is inspired from the vocaloid song 'Murasaki no Mori'.

Last Modified: Saturday, January 7, 2012 at 7:40 p.m.
BATON ROUGE — Justin Hamilton and Storm Warren each had a double-double, and LSU defeated Ole Miss 81-55 in the Southeastern Conference opener for both teams Saturday.

David 'Dubi' Pick: Source: Khimki Moscow to unload Josh Boone, Paul Davis and Tyler Honeycutt.
Khimki Moscow Rumors
Khimki Moscow guard and former NBA player Alexey Shved is launching his own clothing line. The sale will start today before the VTB League game against CSKA Moscow.
Zoran Dragic to Russia
Khimki Moscow announced the signing of Zoran Dragic for the next two years. The Slovenian combo guard comes from one season in the NBA with Suns and Heat.
The Cavaliers "aren't in a hurry" to make a decision on Russian center Sasha Kaun, a league source told the Northeast Ohio Media Group. Cleveland front office personnel dined with the 7-foot Kaun Friday night in Las Vegas after he watched the team's Summer League finale courtside with LeBron James and coach David Blatt, among others.
The Cavs control Kaun's NBA rights and could pay him at least the veteran's minimum of $525,000, in addition to the roughly $1.3 million left of the team's taxpayer's salary cap exception, if they so chose. They invited Kaun to Las Vegas to start the dialogue about possibly playing for Cleveland next season. Kaun, who made the equivalent of $2.9 million annually playing for CSKA in Moscow, told the Northeast Ohio Media Group Friday that money "something that shouldn't be a problem" — indicating he'd take less money to play for the Cavs.

A Java6 application sits in the system tray. It needs to be activated using a hotkey (e.g. Super-G or Ctrl-Shift-L etc) and do something (e.g. showing an input box).
How do I do that on:
- Windows (XP or Vista)
- Linux (Gnome or KDE)
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
I've compiled a library for global hotkeys in java using JNA. It currently supports Windows, Linux and Mac OSX. It also supports media keys on windows and linux.
if anyone is interested, try https://github.com/tulskiy/jkeymaster
I would appreciate any feedback.
Thank you.
For Linux (X11) there is JXGrabKey: http://sourceforge.net/projects/jxgrabkey/
There is also a tutorial for grabbing a global hotkey on Linux: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=864566
I didn't though find a solution for OS X yet.
To build something for all 3 platforms I'd suggest stripping down JIntellitype (it's Apache license) to it's global hotkey functionality and extending it with the OS X and X11 functionality...
It seems that this is not doable in a cross-platform fashion without using the native interfaces.
On Windows, you can use the free JIntellitype library.
If anyone wants to do the OSX or Linux versions of the JNI part of Jintellitype I would be more than happy to add those to the JIntellitype library.
I found this solution to work just great on windows. It does not require you to install any software like JIntelliType. Note that this is 32 bit dll and you can recompile for 64-bit JVM is do desire. All credits to original author of the blog.

lets see now..maybe a large holder sold his 700,000 shares into covered call contracts at a 1.00 each..Lets also say his average price was 22.00.
700,000 covered calls
2,100,000 profit if the contracts are called, if not he pocketed the 700k and still owns the shares
2.8 million total profit..not a bad day
The rich get richer
that's why you cant always judge one way or the other by call volume

I've only used it a couple of days, but I love how moisturizing it is. It's like using a lotion on your face, and it leaves your skin silky soft. After using it, I've also been applying the John Masters Organics John Masters Organics Pomegranate Facial Nourishing Oil 2 fl oz - 2 fl oz oil, and the combo has been great for my skin.
Since I have combination skin that is oily in the summer, I had been worried that this cleanser would be too rich for my skin, but my parched skin is sinking up this combo. Since the Retin-A I use also causes some dryness/flaking this time of year, the cleanser and oil are helping to provide the extra moisture that my skin needs.
I also have sensitive skin that is easily irritated and have been dealing with an ongoing bout of perioral dermatitis, but these two products haven't caused any inflammation; in fact, both are very soothing and moisturizing.
Also be sure to check around about the price; some sellers here are really jacking up the price, so check the John Masters website to make sure that you're not paying too much. (The JM website also offers free shipping.)
That said, the thing I like best about this cleanser is that if I apply it and let it soak in for about 10 minutes, when I start to rub it around with my hands, LOTS of dry skin starts to come off and roll around with it! My skin looks like it's had a good exfoliating afterward, and though it will be a little red from the rubbing, it isn't irritated. So it's a good thing to do weekly, before bedtime.

This is a continuation-in-part application of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 311,542 filed Oct. 15, 1981, now abandoned.
This invention relates to a sensor for sensing the frequency of fluid pressure fluctuations, and more particularly, to a piezoelectric sensor for a vortex-shedding flowmeter.
Certain bluff bodies, when placed in fluid flow paths, shed vortices in a stable vortex formation known as a von Karman vortex street. With preferred bodies, such as in U.S. Pat. No. 4,350,047 issued on Sept. 21, 1982, the spacing of the vortices of the von Karman vortex street is sufficiently constant over desirable ranges of fluid velocities that vortex frequency can be considered proportional to fluid velocity. Vortex frequency can be measured by sensing the frequency of fluid pressure fluctuation at a fixed point in the street, since the pressure at the fixed point fluctuates according to the presence or absence of a vortex at the point.
Piezoelectric material is a desirable material as a pressure sensor. The material operates without external power supply, and responds well to applied pressure fluctuation, with an electrical signal which can be amplified for electronic processing. As a result, piezoelectric material would seem a good choice for the sensing of fluid pressure fluctuation frequency in a von Karman vortex street. Recognition of this desirability was evidenced long ago in U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,809,520; 3,116,639 and 3,218,852.
One particular vortex-shedding flowmeter pressure sensor that is known to have been offered commercially does employ piezoelectric material. However, that sensor utilizes a number of parts and requires the filling of a chamber with oil. As a result, assembly may be complex. Moreover, the piezoelectric disc employed in that sensor operates in a flexure mode, i.e., the center of the disc moves relative to the disc edges such that the disc is flexed into varying degrees of curvature. It is believed that this mode of operation requires relatively wide deflection of the piezoelectric disc for signal generation and would also entail wide deflection of the diaphragms of the sensor, such that diaphragm fatigue and rupture are a possible concern. Thus, that particular piezoelectric sensor is not wholly advantageous. Simplicity and ruggedness remain in the art as unachieved objectives.
In sum, piezoelectric materials have been long known to be desirable for vortex-shedding flow meter sensors, but the art to date has failed to discover a simplified, rugged piezoelectric sensor suitable for commercial offering as a fluid pressure fluctuation frequency sensor. As a result, many commercial offerings of such sensors continue to be of the hot wire and other non-piezoelectric types.
An object of this invention is to provide a piezoelectric pressure sensor which is suitable for sensing the frequency of fluid pressure fluctuations in a dynamic fluid pressure.
Another object of this invention is to provide such a piezoelectric sensor which is suitable for a vortex-shedding flowmeter.
Another object of the invention is to provide a piezoelectric sensor suitable for a vortex-shedding flowmeter which is also ingeniously simple.
A fourth object of the invention is to provide an ingeniously simple piezoelectric sensor for a vortex-shedding flowmeter, which includes a diaphragm which is able to withstand the high frequency pressure fluctuations of a von Karman vortex street (e.g., 10-120 Hz for liquid, 100-1200 Hz for gas in a 50 mm conduit), without damage from fatigue or rupture, throughout an extended useful life.
These and other objects and advantages are satisfied by the invention, which, in a principal aspect, in a sensor adapted to sense a frequency of pressure fluctuations in a dynamic fluid comprising a sensor body, a transducer assembly and a diaphragm. The sensor body has a sensor chamber including an exterior chamber opening and an interior chamber surface spaced opposite the opening. The transducer assembly includes a piezoelectric transducer located in the sensor chamber and seated against the interior chamber surface. The transducer assembly has an end extending from the sensor chamber through and beyond the chamber opening. The diaphragm is mounted on the sensor body and seals the chamber opening. The diaphragm is preloaded against the transducer assembly, to hold the transducer assembly against the interior chamber surface in preloaded compression while the diaphragm is held in preloaded tension by the transducer assembly. The diaphragm is formed to conform to the end of the transducer assembly such that pressure fluctuations outside the chamber against the diaphragm cause compression fluctuations in the piezoelectric transducer. The fluctuations cause the transducer to responsively generate an electrical signal representative of the frequency of the pressure fluctuations.
In this aspect, the invention is a fluid pressure fluctuation frequency sensor operating in a compression mode, involving relatively no deflection of the diaphragm. Pressure on the diaphragm is directly transmitted to the transducer substantially without deflection of the diaphragm. As a result of the structure, mode of operation and the physical contact, relatively no changing stress, fatigue or rupture of the diaphragm occurs, as compared with other, prior art, piezoelectric sensors.
Further, the physical contact of the diaphragm and transducer and a preferred dry mounting involve a simplicity which is ingenious, especially as compared to the mentioned commercially-offered sensor. Components such as the oil fill, oil ports, spacer rings and clamp rings are absent from the inventive sensor, resulting in ease of manufacture and economy.
These and other objects, aspects and advantages of the invention are further detailed in the description which follows.

Referring to the accompanying drawing, the first preferred embodiment of the invention is a fluid pressure fluctuation frequency sensor generally designated 10. Referring to FIGS. 1-3, the sensor 10 is located within and as part of a vortex-shedding flowmeter generally designated 12. The purpose of the meter 12 is to measure the velocity of a fluid flowing within a pipe (not shown). The meter 12 includes pipe sections 16 and 17 to be fitted to the pipe, and velocity reporting or recording instruments such as electronic signal conditioning and enhancing circuitry associated with a gauge 18.
The meter 12 operates by creating a von Karman vortex street in the pipe section 16, and measuring the frequency of fluid pressure fluctuations at a fixed point in the street. In the embodiment illustrated, a bluff body 14 is adapted to cause the street within the pipe section 16. Fluid flows past the body 14 in the direction of the arrow 8. A sensor-carrying body 20 (also a bluff body) is located downstream of the separation point of the bluff body 14, within the wake thereof, with two (one is shown in FIG. 1) side surfaces 22a, 22b parallel to and directly inside the rows of the street. The vortices of one row pass directly beside one side surface 22a; the vortices of the other row pass directly beside the other side surface 22b. Thus, the frequency of pressure fluctuations in the street can be measured at the side surfaces 22a, 22b.
The frequency is measured by the sensor 10, which is located on and within the body 20. The sensor includes the portion 24 of the body 20 adjacent the vortex rows, and two diaphragms 26a, 26b. One diaphragm 26a is located on the one side surface 22a, and other diaphragm 26b is located on the other side surface 22b.
The sensor further includes two sensor chambers 28a, 28b; two piezoelectric discs 30a, 30b; two pairs 32a, 34a and 32b, 34b of electrical leads; and two electrical insulators 35a, 35b. The sensor chambers 28a, 28b extend generally perpendicular to the body side surfaces 22a, 22b in an axial direction. The piezoelectric discs 30a, 30b are located within the chambers 28a, 28b and the leads 32a, 32b, 34a, 34b extend from within the chambers through a passage 36 in the body 20 toward the gauge 18. The leads are electrically connected to the signal conditioning and enhancing circuitry.
The pairs of sensor chambers 28a, 28b; discs 30a, 30b; leads 32a, 34a, 32b, 34b; and insulators 35a, 35b are substantially identical to each other. The chamber 28a, disc 30a, and leads 32a, 34a are mirror images of the chamber 28b, disc 30b, and leads 32b, 34b, respectively. For clarity of drawing and description, only chamber 28a, disc 30a, leads 32a, 34a and insulator 35a are now described.
Chamber 28a is a substantially cylindrical bore defined by an inner sidewall 38a which extends axially inward from a chamber opening defined by a transversely extending ledge 42a of a counterbore in the body side surface 22a. The chamber sidewall 38a has a substantially uniform diameter, from the chamber opening at ledge 42a to a substantially circular, transversely extending inner or interior chamber surface 44a. The surface 44a meets the sidewall 38a to form the "bottom" of the chamber 28a. The surface 44a is substantially planar, substantially circular, and parallels the side surface 22a and ledge 42a.
The ledge 42a supports the periphery of the diaphragm 26a, which is a thin, circular member, across the chamber opening. The diameters of an axially extending outer sidewall portion 40a and the diaphragm 26a are sized to provide a snug fit between the diaphragm 26a and the sidewall portion 40a of the counterbore. The width of the sidewall portion 40a is sized to provide for support of the diaphragm 26a by the ledge 42a with the outer surface of the periphery of the diaphragm 26a being substantially coplanar with the body side surface 22a.
The diaphragm 26a is secured to the ledge 42a. A laser weld may, for example, seal the diaphragm 26a about its periphery to the ledge. The seal provided by the laser weld isolates the interior of the chamber 28a from the fluid in the flowmeter 12, to provide a benign environment for the disc 30a, leads 32a, 34a and insulator 35a. The laser weld is especially desirable for the seal, to eliminate disc damage from overheating during the sealing.
The disc 30a is fitted within the chamber 28a between the two leads 32a, 34a, and the insulator 35a. The disc 30a is in direct physical contact with the leads and insulator, and thereby in indirect physical contact with the diaphragm 26a, the inner chamber surface 44a and the sidewall 38a. More specifically, the disc 30a is sandwiched between a thin, planar and circular portion 46a of the lead 32a and a substantially identical portion 48a of the lead 34a. The lead portion 46a is parallel to, and abuts, the diaphragm 26a over its surface, while the lead portion 48a is parallel to, and abuts, the chamber inner surface 44a over its surface. The insulator 35a extends around the edge of the disc 30a along the chamber sidewall 38a, from one side of the narrow strip 50a of conductor 32a to the other side thereof.
The disc 30a, leads 32a, 34a, and insulator 35a are snugly dry-mounted in the chamber 28a with allowance for disc dimensional changes on the order of less than 0.1 micrometer. They are not attached to each other in the chamber 28a, or to the diaphragm 26a or body 20. No fluid or adhesive is present in the chamber 28a. Fluids, adhesive and other resilient materials are considered to be detrimental.
As shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the disc 30a, leads 32a, 34a, insulator 35a and diaphragm 26a are assembled in the chamber 28a. The disc 30a, leads 32a, 34a and insulator 35a form a transducer assembly 51. The thickness of the assembly 51 is the sum of the thicknesses of the disc 30a, and leads 32a, 34a. All thicknesses are defined in the axial direction defined by the centerline 52 of the chamber 28a. The assembly thickness exceeds the depth of the chamber 28a between the ledge 42a and the surface 44a. As a result, the assembly 50 has an end extending through and beyond the chamber opening at ledge 42a.
During the assembly of the sensor 10, a fixture 54 holds the diaphragm 26a against the ledge 42a and the transducer assembly 51 and axially preloads the diaphragm 26a against the transducer assembly 51 which is seated against interior chamber surface 44a, as in FIG. 10. The laser weld 56 is made, while the fixture 54 holds the diaphragm 26a and the assembly 51, also as in FIG. 10. The weld 56 is formed on the ledge 42a and outer sidewall 40a away from the inner sidewall 38a.
After completion of the weld 56, the fixture 54 is removed and the diaphragm 26a is hydroformed under a pressure of approximately 2,000 psi, or approximately 13,790 kilopascals (kPa), to conform around and to the surface of the protruding end of the assembly 51, as in FIG. 11. Within the periphery 58, a central, exposed fluid pressure receiving surface portion 59 is defined in the diaphragm 26a. The surface portion 59 is raised from the periphery 58. The surface portion 59 is in direct physical contact with the circular portion 46a of the electrical lead 32a over its whole area. As stated above, the circular lead portion 46a is in direct physical contact with the disc 30a over its whole area. Because of the relationship of the thickness of the transducer assembly 51 to the inner chamber wall depth, the diaphragm 26a remains preloaded in both radial and axial tension, while the disc 30a remains preloaded in compression.
The disc 30a is a piezoelectric transducer, and more specifically, a cylindrical disc of ceramic or crystalline material having piezoelectric properties. One such disc is made by the Vernitron Corporation of Bedford, Ohio. Compression across the opposite, planar surfaces of the disc causes the disc to generate positive and negative charges at the opposite surfaces. These charges are related to the amount of compression across the disc.
The generated charges are carried by the leads 32a, 34a to the gauge 18. Electrical contact with the charged surfaces of the disc 30a is provided by the circular portions 46a, 48a of the leads. The leads are formed by copper deposit on a polyimide film, etching to remove undesired deposit, application of a second film, and stamping to separate completed leads. As in FIGS. 10 and 11, the copper deposits of the circular portions 46a, 48a of the leads 32a, 34a, such as deposit 90, are exposed to the disc 30a. The deposits are insulated from the sensor body and diaphragm by the polyimide film thereof, such as film 91. As in FIG. 12, in the remainder of the leads, the copper deposits 93 are sealed within the films 94.
The insulator 35a is also formed of an insulation (e.g., polyimide) coated copper or other stiff and springy material. The polyimide film completely envelopes the copper. The insulator is initially formed as a flat strip, with the copper providing the support and flexibility required for shaping of the insulator 35a.
The disc 30a is thus held within the chamber 28a, between the diaphragm 26a and chamber surface 44a. The rigidities of the chamber surface 44a, disc 30a and diaphragm 26a are related such that pressure fluctuations applied against the diaphragm 26a cause compression fluctuations in the disc 30a, but do not vibrate the diaphragm 26a. The diaphragm is essentially or substantially static, flexing only to the extent of compression in the transducer assembly 51. As a result of this minimal flexing, the diaphragm is substantially free of fatigue, while the disc 30a responds sufficiently to pressure fluctuations to function as a sensor of the frequency of fluid pressure fluctuations.
Since the disc 30a responds to compression fluctuations with an electrical signal related to the compression fluctuations of the disc, and since the compression fluctuations are representative of the pressure fluctuations, the signal of the disc 30a is representative of the pressure fluctuations. Thus, the frequency of pressure fluctuations adjacent the one body side surface 22a can be determined from the frequency of the signal of the disc 30a.
It should be understood that each disc 30a, 30b generates an electrical signal. The signals have the same frequency, since the vortex rows have the same frequency. As a result, the signals may be electronically processed together or separately, as desired, to record or report the frequency of fluid pressure fluctuations in the street, and thereby the velocity of the fluid. One desired processing alternative is the subtraction of signals from the sensor pair to achieve a high signal-to-noise ratio.
Referring now to FIGS. 4-6, the second preferred embodiment is a fluid pressure fluctuation frequency sensor generally designated 60. The sensor 60 includes a portion 64 of a body 62, and two diaphragms 66a, 66b (not shown in FIGS. 4 and 6, for clarity). One diaphragm 66a is located on one side surface 68a of the body 64, and the other diaphragm 66b is located on the opposite side surface 68b of the body 64.
The sensor 60 further includes a sensor chamber 70; two piezoelectric plates 72a, 72b; two pairs 74a, 76a and 74b, 76b of electrical leads; and an electrical insulator body 78. The sensor chamber 70 extends generally perpendicular to the body side surfaces 68a, 68b through the body portion 64. In planes parallel to the body side surfaces 68a, 68b, the sensor chamber 70 is oblate in shape, as are the diaphragms 66a, 66b.
The insulator 78 occupies the chamber 70. The insulator 78 is externally shaped to match the chamber 70. A passage 80 in the insulator 78 is aligned with a passage 82 in the body portion 64, and opens into two plate chambers 84a, 84b in the insulator 78. The piezoelectric plates 72a, 72b and the leads 74a, 76a, 74b, 76b are located within the chambers 84a, 84b, respectively. The leads extend from within the chambers 84a, 84b through the passages 80, 82.
In further detail, the sensor 60 is similar to the sensor 10. For example, the plates 72a, 72b are sandwiched between their respective leads 74a, 76a, 74b, 76b in indirect physical contact with the respective diaphragms 66a, 66b and inner chamber surfaces 86a, 86b.
Referring to FIG. 7, the third preferred embodiment is a sensor 100. The sensor 100 is substantially identical to the sensor 10. The exception is that the piezoelectric elements 102a, 102b are oblate and the sensor chambers, leads and diaphragms are shaped to match. Physical interrelationships are retained, and function is enhanced, as with sensor 60, by the increased dimension of the piezoelectric elements in a direction transverse to the street.
Referring to FIGS. 8 and 9, the fourth preferred embodiment is a sensor 110 having the enhanced function of the sensors 60, 100 achieved by pairing piezoelectric discs 30a, 30b and the associated structure of the sensor 10 with two further, spaced discs 30a, 30b and structure (30b discs not shown), for a total of four discs. In structure, the sensor 10 is equivalent to two sensors 10, with the leads of the 30a discs connected and the leads of the 30b discs connected.
The preferred embodiments of the invention have now been described in detail, with the non-sensor aspects of the illustrated flowmeter only generally described, for clarity. Further information about the vortex-shedding flowmeter as generally described can be obtained from U.S. Pat. No. 4,350,047 issued Sept. 21, 1982 to C Forbes Dewey, Jr. and David E. Wiklund, and incorporated herein by reference. However, it should be understood that while the invention is described in the context of a specific type of vortex-shedding flowmeter for which it is especially adapted, the invention is not restricted to such an application. Vortex-shedding flowmeters of various types may include the invention, as may non-vortex-shedding flowmeters. For example, a vortex-shedding flowmeter with a single bluff body may include the invention. As another example, a vortex-shedding flowmeter may include the invention positioned on a wall of the meter. Moreover, the invention may be applied to diverse flow measurement apparatus, such as may be used in ducts, open channels and wherever the sensing of the frequency of dyanamic fluid pressure fluctuations is desired.
Thus, while preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described and illustrated in specific applications, the invention should not be limited thereto, but may be otherwise embodied within the scope of the following claims.

As many of our alumni know,
the Barefoot Contessa grew up sailing this area,
so knows it well and looks forward to introducing
you to her special haunts where you'll be able to
celebrate your passion for photography, hone your
seeing and imaging skills, and learn about the magic
of light to make wonderful photographs.
We will be based in the quiet village of New Harbor, right in the heart of an area that has produced
many of Margo's photographs that have been published in calendars,
travel magazines, and coffee-table books. After the workshop, plan on taking
an extra few days to explore this area on your own, return to places we have
taken you, and use your new-found knowledge to make more beautiful photographs.
Sometimes during workshops, we do a blog. For the one from 2015, click here.

Yes it appears you can give Phenergan to dogs. The dose is 1mg/kg twice daily.
See: http://www.ingleburnvet.com.au/antihistamines.htm
I would check with your vet first.

What is a 'Prepaid Expense'
A prepaid expense is a type of asset that arises on a balance sheet as a result of business making payments for goods and services to be received in the near future. While prepaid expenses are initially recorded as assets, their value is expensed over time as the benefit is received onto the income statement, because unlike conventional expenses, the business will receive something of value in the near future.
BREAKING DOWN 'Prepaid Expense'
Due to the nature of certain goods and services, they must be prepaid expenses. For example, insurance is a prepaid expense, because the purpose of purchasing insurance is to buy proactive protection in case something unfortunate happens. Clearly, no insurance company would sell insurance that covers the occurrence of an unfortunate event, after the fact, so insurance expenses must be pre-paid.
An example of expensing prepaid expenses would be if a company had a one-year insurance policy cost of $1200. As each month elapses, $100 of prepaid insurance would be expensed to the income statement until the account is empty at the end of the year.

The fever and achy muscles are gone, you're feeling much better, but that hacking cough is still hanging in there. While a cough that won't go away can be caused by something other than a cold (e.g., bronchitis, sinusitis, allergies, pneumonia), for many, a nagging cough can linger around for up to three weeks after the other symptoms of a cold have passed. What can you do to get some relief? Here are a few non-over-the-counter suggestions:
1. Use a humidifier: Running a humidifier moisturizes the air, which helps sooth inflamed respiratory track tissues. There are different kinds of humidifiers on the market. A cool mist humidifier, which tends to be the least expensive, works fine. It provides the moisture, uses less energy than a warm mist humidifier, and prevents the risk of anyone getting burned.
2. Lay off the dairy: Dairy products are known to increase the build-up of mucus, which is the last thing we need to do while trying to rid our bodies of phlegm.
3. Water: Staying well-hydrated is always a good thing, optimizing our bodies' functioning, including our immune systems. While both warm and cool water can sooth raw throats, cool water has the added benefit of slightly reducing swelling.
4. Eat honey: Quality raw honey (in contrast to highly processed honey) is anti-viral and anti-bacterial, and can be eaten by itself, in tea, or used in a number of home remedies for coughs and colds (see below.) A Penn State College of Medicine study tested the impact of nightly doses of buckwheat honey on children (ages 2-18) suffering from night time coughing and a respiratory track infection for 7 days or less. The study showed that night time coughing was reduced in children who took the honey, encouraging news in light of the FDA's recommendation that children not be given over the counter cold medicines due to potentially harmful effects.

According to a new report in Financial Post, Alfa Romeo may build its forthcoming 169 sedan in Chrysler LLC's Brampton, Ontario facility – a development made possible by the latter's tie-up with Fiat (which owns Alfa).

That news would make sense as Alfa was reportedly shopping for a rear-drive platform t

Craven Cottage
On Sky
The 'Chav`s` from down the other end of the Fulham Road pitch up on our patch this New Years Day for a fixture everyone in our neck of the woods relishes. With it being Roy Hodgson`s first game in charge it has that little extra edge to it. Can Fulham end a long run without a win? Off course we can!
With Hodgson taking over the managerial hot seat Anti Niemi has come out and spoken about the man who managed him at international level, remarking,
"When I was with the Finland team, it was always the defence first and, for me, that is absolutely brilliant."
"He is very good at organising teams. Obviously when you are in the relegation zone, as a goalkeeper you think you are probably leaking too many goals. That is what he is really good at - organising the defence. That is what I`m really looking forward to."
"There is nothing wrong with us playing football - we can pass the ball pretty well at times - we just need that bit of steel back in the team, a bit of backbone. It looks a bit shaky at times so that is probably the first thing he will try and fix."
It`ll be interesting to see who makes the first starting eleven of the Hodgson era. We suspect that Roy may well have had a small say in the way the team was shaped at Birmingham where we reverted to 4-4-2.
Definitely not available for selection are the injured, Jimmy Bullard, Brian McBride, Kasey Keller and Lee Cook. Also out we fear, through suspension, are Volz and Bouazza.
Therefore Hodgson will select from the following squad
Niemi, Warner, Baird, Omozusi, Hughes, Stefanovic, Bocanegra, Konchesky, Davies, Smertin, Davis, Murphy, Healy, Dempsey, Kuqi, Kamara.
Coming on leaps and bounds since his elevation from the reserves. A little raw still but just seeing someone form our academy make it this far is a great feeling.
Chelsea arrive at Craven Cottage with a ready-made book of excuses just in case they`re beaten.
Page one mentions a long injury list that contains the names of John Terry, Frank Lampard, Didier Drogba, Claude Makelele, Florent Malouda, Petr Cech, Carlo Cudicini and Andriy Shevchenko.
Page two mentions those who are suspended namely Ricardo Carvalho and Ashley Cole.
Page three has the fans carping on about wanting their Jose Mourinho back.
Page four mentions why Avram Grant isn`t good enough, etc. etc.
Don`t be surprised if one or two of the injured makes a miraculous recovery and plays.
Chelsea from - Cech, Hilario, Ferreira, Belletti, Ben Haim, Alex, Bridge, Essien, Mikel, Sidwell, Ballack, Wright-Phillips, J.Cole, Sinclair, Kalou, Pizarro.
The German international has just recovered form a lengthy lay-off and is starting to rediscover his form. He looked good against Newcastle but isn`t currently fit enough to last ninety minutes. Despite an indifferent Chelsea career, I for one will be looking to watch one of the greats in action.
It`s a big brother - little brother thing, well in their eyes. I`m fed up with all the patronisation flaunted in our direction and nothing would give me greater pleasure than to win and wipe the smug smiles off their faces. Okay, we haven`t won for ages and ages but we`ve got to one day and seeing Avram Grant`s record become three defeats in twenty three games would bring a smile to my face.
Normally suggesting a home win over one of the big four would lead to me being taken away in a strait-jacket. This one is different, anything can happen in a local derby and with Chelsea having their book of excuses ready, you get the feeling they are there for the taking. With Roy having taken charge, the team will be geed up and we here at Vital Fulham reckon we can nick it 2-1. Remember where you read it first.
After all the heartache of recent weeks in the Premier League, it`s time to take a break and try our luck in the FA Cup. Our opponents on Saturday are Bristol Rovers.

Genealogy is very addictive but not having the final resting place for a member of our families can be very disappointing. I hope to have many ancestors of both mine and my husbands side of the family listed for future generations. Many burial locations are family
cemeteries that will be eventually lost due to overgrowth and lack of care for the sites. Hopefully this will help others looking for
their family.

Ernest H. Kratz grave marker
Dear Colleen,
Thank you so much for taking these four pictures of the Ernest H. Kratz grave marker! They are just what I wanted! Yes, I also got his obit recently, and learned that he was pretty "high up" with the Masonic system!
Colleen, do you live in Tampa? I'd like to include your name in my list of "Acknowledgements" for people who have helped me complete this chapter in our family history. Kindly let me know, and thanks again!
Bellingham, WA

Greetings Colleen,
Sorry I didn't leave a note yesterday. I walked the sections with one of the caretakers, "Sammy" ,who had a plot map, so the locations should be quite accurate. He was quite helpful and thorough. I did a quick rubbing on the marker and was able to make out the name Mary and Woods. Sorry there isn't more. It was disappointing to me also.

Photo requests St Mary's
Hello Colleen,
I did a pretty hard walk thru section M and didn't find anyone. I'll be down that way Monday or Tuesday, I think, and I'll go thru M & O hard again.

Photo requests St Mary
I spoke to the caretaker at St. Mary's on Mt Troy road and he said there is no section M, only number designations. St. Mary's in Sharpsburg has a section M but the markers are newer than what you're looking for. Please reply
As always, Regards'

RE: Catherine Corriveau
Do you have the name of the gentleman she was dating? Le champ d'honneur, Pointe Claire is where servicemen are buried (not far from the cemetery I went to today). Many of the servicemen have loved ones buried with them. If your relative is buried with him, she will have a marker below his. I would be happy to follow up.

I once had contact with you regarding a Conway request. I recently added 19 Conways to Saint Eugene Catholic Cemetery in Ontario. This is very near Montreal. Not sure if they may be related to you. Best regards Robert

Di Dia
I notice that you mention in your bio that most of the memorial that you have done are family. What can you tell me about Isidoro Di Dia? I have been researching the Di Dia family all and most of the Di Dia and/or DiDia in the U.S. I have found my cousins by tracing my great grandfather and his brothers, and trace his brothers family. I have located them from Knoxville, Tenn to Sandusky, Ohio and San Diego, California. My grandfather and his brothers changed their last name from Di Dia to Dee to avoid discrimination. I am currently running a website called the didiaproject.com

Engine Performance problem
1999 Volkswagen Passat 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 200 miles
When I start my vw 199 passat, it stalls and there is a bad smell coming inside. Also, when driving it for more than 20 min. It the console displaying drive; park; reverse etc. Goes black in the background and the car has no power; slows down. I have to pull over let it cool down and start it again. My ABS is not working properly, and when I stop makes a thumping noise; while wobbling some.

French President Francois Hollande vowed Wednesday that a new law on the "publication and control" of ministers' wealth would be presented within weeks, after his ex-budget minister was charged in a tax evasion probe.
Hollande said the former minister, Jerome Cahuzac, "did not benefit from any protection" from top officials and that his actions were an "insult to the Republic".
Hollande promised "a ruthless fight against conflicts between public and private interests and to ensure the publication and control of the wealth of ministers and parliamentarians."
He said the government would submit a law to parliament on these measures "in the weeks to come".
The president also said elected officials convicted of tax fraud or corruption would be banned from holding public office and that new measures would be taken from this summer to reinforce the independence of the judiciary.
Cahuzac -- the minister once responsible for cracking down on tax evasion -- was charged Tuesday with "laundering the proceeds of tax fraud" after he admitted to having a foreign bank account containing some 600,000 euros ($770,000), following weeks of denials.
Hollande said he knew nothing of the account.
"He deceived the highest authorities in the country: the head of state, the head of the government, parliament, and through them all the French people," Hollande said.
"This was a mistake, an unpardonable mistake. It was an insult to the Republic," Hollande said. "Every light will be shed on this and the justice system will pursue its work to the end and in all independence."
"Jerome Cahuzac did not benefit from any protection other than the presumption of innocence and he left the government at my request from the opening of a judicial inquiry."

The battery is completely dead and where it is parked, I can only get my personal vehicle close enough to jump it with my cables. Can I use my GMC 1500 gas personal vehicle to jump start this truck? I guess what I am really asking, does the Isuzu NPR HD Gas truck run on a 12V or 24V system?
