Velocity Sensing Sonar for Naval Special Warfare Undersea Vehicles

AbstractThis Phase I proposal is to establish the feasibility of developing a velocity log suited to navigation of small underwater vehicles that are required to transit to the littoral zone from deeper open ocean waters during clandestine operations. The instrument will measure three components of bottom- and water-relative velocity over a wide altitude range of less than 1 to greater than 1000 m. It will be accurate, small, light-weight, and use little average power. We propose an innovative hybrid design combining several technologies we have already developed. As correlation velocity log (CVL) technology is ideally suited to achieving high altitude bottom-tracking with a limited aperture, we will scale down and update our 22 kHz CVL to a frequency between 38 and 75 kHz. Accuracy and covertness concerns at low altitudes motivate us to add a Doppler velocity log transducer (probably a 2D phased array operating at 600 kHz), with shared electronics in the hybrid system minimizing size and weight. During Phase I we will design the hybrid velocity log sonar, validate the concept, and specify a prototype to be built and further developed in Phase II.

Composed of a selection of career biographies, with additional trivia sections and a history of the show, the book has a gossipy, easygoing style that impresses, offering some important new observations on the Dark Shadows phenomenon along the way. For example, in the opening history of the show, the author comments on the intrusion of reality during the show's run, with some insightful comments from Nancy Barrett on the effect of the Vietnam War on the show's original fair tale qualities. It's a brief aside, but a valuable one that adds an extra dimension to the rose-tinted view of the studio days one usually hears.
Elsewhere, the book revels in the absurdities of show business, gleefully documenting a number of hilarious "what were they thinking?" productions with appropriately droll asides. If Denise Nickerson's Broadway lead in a musical production of Lolita doesn't sound bad enough, then Grayson Hall's hilarious turn as a lesbian nightclub promoter in sexploitation flick Satan in High Heels should raise a few smiles, in a role that even the actress agreed was best forgotten - she denied even appearing in the film at certain times in her career.
Where the book scores most highly is in its coverage of the actors' stage careers.Read more ›
I believe this book will serve to increase an already substantial amount of interest in one of the most unique television shows ever produced, Dark Shadows!
A nice remedy to the endless amount of photo-heavy, content-lite other DS books.
If you want to really learn about the real people behind the characters, and like well-written material, this is your best option.
A must have, which adds a welcome degree of historical context and richness.
Highly RECOMMENDED!
Thank you, R.J. Jamison for continuing with the update that you and Craig Hamrick worked on to give us even more to enjoy about these wonderful artists than even the first edition of Barnabas & Company gave us...
I was actually able to sit down and read it cover to cover, even though it would be very easy to skip around and read just about the people that interested you. Definitely a worthwhile addition to my (increasingly digital) Dark Shadows collection, and worth checking out if you are a fan or are interested in the culture of the show and the people behind it.

Has anyone tried the flower towers and if so, what type of flower did you select? Thanks.
Flower Towers
Got one built but thats as far as it has went .
Rockette, I am curious now that it is august how your towers are doing?
Happgarden, they are doing better than expected. I added a few more petunias but they all filled nicely. I will do this again next year. I like the tower better than container because folks can see everything from a distance. The marigold flower tower back is towards the house so I didn't fill the backside with flowers and no one knew.
Edited to say I added moss roses to the marigold tower and the reds really added color.
This message was edited Aug 2, 2013 4:57 PM
omg those are amazing! Stunning. Smart woman not to fill in the back side no one would be seeing...rofl.
I will have to try those next year.
I have a three tier pot full of caladiums that I use every year that I really enjoy. They are in a shady area and I always use the white caladiums because they bring light to a very dark area.
But those towers are amazing. Thank you for posting another picture of them matured.
Happgarden, those look like white Christmas caladiums. Beautiful. Thanks for the picture. I have three-tier planters not used for a few years because they dried out quickly. This is my first year for caladiums and love the colors.....after seeing your pic i am thinking next year I will use the three tier for caladiums.
Interesting, cytf, and I expect it will become amazing.
thank you Cathy166, every year I try to add different flowers.I am thinking about putting another one in partial shade next year.
Very pretty cytf.
thank you happgarden
Every year our mg group plants the plantings around our small city. After seeing yours I may do that next year. We call them barrels but they are rod iron but about the size of a trash barrel, so short plantings can sometimes look a little odd, but a tower would really look good (if I could get them to look 1/2 as good as yours).
Hi happgarden , when you are ready to build yours just D mail me and I will mail you the article from the magazine that I got the idea from.I do not mind sharing with my garden buddies
Well it won't be until spring of next year...rofl. They are so hard to plant and make look like anything that I probably won't forget.

Bungie Destiny contract reveals Xbox 720 will arrive in 2013 - E3 announcement?
Halo developer Bungie's next game, a MMO first-person shooter called Destiny, will be released in Autumn 2013 for Xbox 360 and, dum dum dum, the Xbox 720.
The contract between the studio and publisher Activision has been made public as part of Activision Blizzard's lawsuit against former Call of Duty developers Jason West and Vincent Zampella, and it covers a launch version for the "next Xbox".
In addition, it refers to Microsoft's next generation console as the Xbox 720 - not Durango. However, as the contract was drawn up two years ago, the Durango name wasn't used at that time. What is more interesting, however, is that Activision had clearly been under the impression that the new machine would be out in 2013. It is unlikely that it would commission a version of a game that it couldn't release.
The contract also reveals that Bungie is to make four "sci-fantasy, action shooter games", covering three sequels. And that although the first Destiny game will be an Xbox 360 and Xbox 720 exclusive for 2013, a PS3 version is to be developed and released a year later in "Fall 2014".
Finally, the Bungie Activision agreement also covers the PlayStation 4, but not until Destiny 2. The first sequel is to be available for Xbox 360, Xbox 720 and PS4.
So, does this all mean that we're about to get a major unveiling at E3, specifically by Microsoft? Pocket-lint's sources continually say not. E3 2013 is a far better bet for a Xbox 720 launch, perhaps with a quick turnaround to get it into shops by Autumn 2013. After all, there have already been reports that the console has entered the early stages of production.
What do you think? Xbox 720 for 2013? And what about Destiny. are you looking forward to Bungie's next game? Let us know in the comments below...

Can't Buy Me Love? What About An Ambassadorship?
I'm long since past the point of outrage — or even surprise — when a big money-giver to a presidential candidate gets a plum ambassadorship somewhere.
It's the way of Washington. But somehow, in listening to his "change" campaign for president, I wondered if Barack Obama would be somewhat different from some of his predecessors.
Well, according to a great piece this morning by The Washington Post's Al Kamen, Obama has in many ways gone much further than Bill Clinton, who appointed some Dem moneybags to ambassadorships. It's not even close.
Kamen outlines the differences between the two presidents' approach:
Clinton tended to pick people with experience in public policy — if not international policy — for the important embassies. His big donors were generally given jobs in smaller countries in eastern or northern Europe where they could do little lasting harm.
There are, of course, no hard rules on these matters. There is no consensus that just being rich is necessarily a bad thing, though most observers suggest that complete cluelessness is to be avoided, if possible.
A chart that accompanies his column — which is somehow not available on the Web site — illustrates the difference.
For ambassador to Great Britain, Clinton chose Adm. William Crowe, the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs, who gave no money to the Clinton campaign. Obama picked businessman Louis Susman, an Obama fundraiser who either raised or contributed $735,000 for Democratic candidates during the previous three election cycles.
For France, Clinton chose legendary Democratic fundraiser Pamela Harriman, who raised/contributed $99,000 in the three-year period. Obama picked one of his fundraisers, Charles Rivkin, who raised/contributed $883,000.
For Japan, Clinton chose former Vice President Walter Mondale. Obama picked another fundraiser, John Roos, a Silicon Valley attorney, who raised/contributed $545,000.
For South Africa, Clinton chose James Joseph, a former undersecretary of interior whose total was $700. Obama picked communications executive Donald Gips (total: $553,000).
For Spain, Clinton chose Richard Gardner, a former ambassador to Italy ($6,300). Obama picked Boston financier Alan Solomont (total: $1.4 million).
Change you can believe in? That sure is a lot of change.

Statement attributable to the Spokesman for the Secretary-General on situation in Andaman Sea and Straits of Malacca
New York , 14 May 2015
The Secretary-General is concerned about the crisis evolving in the Andaman Sea and Straits of Malacca, where several thousand people are believed to be stranded on smugglers' boats. He is alarmed by reports that some countries may be refusing entry to boats carrying refugees and migrants.
The Secretary-General urges Governments to ensure that the obligation of rescue at sea is upheld and the prohibition on refoulement is maintained. He also urges Governments to facilitate timely disembarkation and keep their borders and ports open in order to help the vulnerable people who are in need.
The Secretary-General has taken note of the efforts to organise a regional summit and calls on all leaders of Southeast Asia to intensify individual and collective efforts to address this worrying situation and tackle the root causes, which are often human rights violations. In this regard, he reminds States of their obligations under international law; he emphasizes the need for a timely, comprehensive, rights-based, and effective response.
