(NEW YORK, NY) -- Rick's Cabaret, NYC, the luxurious new midtown Manhattan gentlemen's club (50 West 33rd Street), has begun serving a sumptuous midday buffet lunch and will soon begin erotic dance lessons for ladies with a $2,500 cash prize for the best "student." The club is operated by Rick's Cabaret International, Inc. (NASDAQ: Rick), which owns 10 adult nightclubs around the country.
The buffet lunch will be the handiwork of Executive Chef Daniel Cohn, a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America who oversees a state-of-the-art kitchen at Rick's where first class meals are available up to 4 am in the morning.
In addition to providing a pleasant accompaniment to the buffet lunch of carved meat and fresh salads, the famous Girls of Rick's dancers will soon be available to tutor female patrons of the Manhattan Club in the gentle art of intimate dances. A $10 cover charge gains access to the club, the buffet, the dance lessons and the cabaret show. All drinks are $7 from 11:30 a.m. to 7 p.m.
"We've been getting an increasing number of women customers who come as dates of our male patrons and they have been requesting private dances for themselves," said Eric Langan, CEO of Rick's Cabaret. "A number of them have asked our dancers to give them lessons, so we'll provide the lessons. After we've had a few classes we'll be holding a series of contests for the best amateur dancers, and we'll award the top prize of $2,500 in late November.
A four-day grand opening extravaganza for Rick's Cabaret Sept. 21-24 drew packed crowds at the three-story club that is located between the Empire State Building and Madison Square Garden.

The co-director of Finding Dory on making the film. Plus, he recommends an awful lot of movies to watch...
From working as an animator on A Bug's Life and Toy Story 2, through to directing shorts such as Burn-e and Toy Story Of Terror, Angus MacLane has worked his way up through his career at Pixar. So much so, that he's now making his feature co-directing debut on Finding Dory, that lands in UK cinemas today.
He spared us some time for a chat – and it's worth staying to the end where he starts firing out film recommendations….
I first spoke to you eight or nine years ago when you were talking about Wall-e, that you were supervising animator. And you told me then of an eight-year old who asked you a question about that film at a Q&A. And I do think »

Thomas Bidegain on John C Reilly in Yorgos Lanthimos' The Lobster and Matteo Garrone's Tale of Tales: "I think he has a secret plan to become a European film star." Photo: Anne-Katrin Titze
Thomas Bidegain known for his screenwriting artistry with Jacques Audiard on Dheepan, A Prophet, and Rust And Bone and Joachim Lafosse on Our Children and The White Knights, met for a conversation on his directorial debut. Co-produced by Jean-Pierre Dardenne and Luc Dardenne, co-written with Noé Debré, Les Cowboys stars François Damiens, Finnegan Oldfield (Eva Husson's Bang Gang) and John C Reilly with Agathe Dronne, Iliana Zabeth (Bertrand Bonello's Saint Laurent and House Of Tolerance), Jean-Louis Coulloc'h, Ellora Torchia, Mounir Margoum, Antonia Campbell-Hughes and Maxim Driesen.

In Thomas Bidegain's skilful directorial debut, a country-music obsessed family travel to Pakistan after the disappearance of their daughter
Hitherto best known for the excellent screenplays he wrote for several French auteurs, particularly Jacques Audiard (A Prophet, Rust and Bone, Dheepan) and Bertrand Bonello (Saint Laurent), Thomas Bidegain makes his debut as director in his own right with this craftily elliptical, intimate epic. In the mid-1990s, a rural family of four enthusiastic country and western fans, who like all things to do with cowboy hats and line-dancing, are devastated when their daughter disappears one night at the local hoedown. Father Alain (François Damiens, touching) spends years searching for her, despite the fact that she seemingly doesn't want to be found, having eloped with a Muslim boy who may or may not have jihadist sympathies. Kid, her younger brother (eventually played as an adult by a somewhat stiff »

Thomas Bidegain has made the transition from screenwriting to directing more smoothly than most with "Les Cowboys," a contemporary reimagining of John Ford's "The Searchers." Bidegain's updated take on the Western classic stars François Damiens as a Stetson-wearing Frenchman whose teenage daughter suddenly disappears one day, apparently having run off with the Muslim boyfriend her parents didn't even know existed. Ahead of the film's theatrical release tomorrow, Indiewire has been exclusively provided with a clip from the film.

In the scene, Damiens makes his way through the makeshift encampment where he thinks his daughter might be hiding out. She's not there, of course, but some residents who don't take kindly to his presence certainly are.

Originally titled Maryland, writer-director Alice Winocour's (co-writer of Mustang) second feature Disorder has just received its first U.S. trailer. Selling itself to American audiences as a lot more clear-cut than its U.K. treatment, the trailer lays out the early story beats before delving into synthwave and neon-headed title cards that cannot help but scream, "this has worked before, right?"
Following a solider with Ptsd (Matthias Schoenaerts of Bullhead and The Drop) hired to watch over the wife (Diane Kruger) and child of a wealthy businessman, the film received nominations at Cannes, AFI, Lumiere Awards, and Stockholm Film Fest.
While the film attempts a heady slow-burn, we said in our review: "[The] subtext is interesting, but only carries Disorder so far. A good deal of it stretches on interminably with Vincent looking sad, weary, on edge, or some combination of the three. Writer-director Alice Winocour does a fine job establishing the geography of Maryland, »

This week, Neil Calloway looks at how winning in Cannes affects a film's box office…
Cannes remains the most important film festival in the world, and one of the most important events of any type (think of an annual event that gets the same coverage and you're searching for a while). The latest festival ends tonight.
There are three parts to Cannes – the market, where bad movies get sold to international distributors so the producers can finance their next straight to DVD Nazi-Vampire-Kung Fu flick, there's the promotional part, where young, pretty actresses get photographed next to old directors, and there is the competition.
The top prize at the competition, and unquestionably the top prize at any film festival anywhere, is the Palme d'Or. Does winning it help a film, though?

The premiere of Andrea Arnold's American Honey at Cannes on Sunday saw the director and cast show off a few dance moves during their red carpet photo-op, in what Vanity Fair, perhaps channeling a Downton Abbey character, called a "charmingly youthful moment." Red carpet attire excepted, the spontaneous performance apparently fit right in with the film, which includes a pop soundtrack and a dance scene of its own, per The Telegraph's Tim Robey:Twice, during Andrea Arnold's rapturously scuzzy road movie American Honey, Rihanna and Calvin Harris grace the soundtrack with "We Found Love", their euphoric 2011 dance-floor smash that invites you to drop everything, get high and lose yourself. It's first heard over the tannoy in an Oklahoma Walmart, where main characters Star (Sasha Lane) and Jake (Shia Labeouf) clap eyes on each other, while the latter's crew of wasters, waifs and strays grab provisions up and down the aisles. »

Mere minutes into "American Honey," her scrappy, sprawling astonishment of a fourth feature, Andrea Arnold hits the audience with a song choice almost too perfect to work. As a girl's gaze meets a boy's across the packed aisles of a Midwestern Walmart, the euphoric Edm throb of Calvin Harris and Rihanna's 2011 smash "We Found Love" hijacks the busy soundscape, setting a love story emphatically in motion by the time he hops up to dance on the checkout counter. "We found love in a hopeless place," the song's chorus ecstatically declares, over and over, as well it might — does it get more hopeless than Walmart, after all? It's a gesture so brazenly big and romantically literal that it can't help but have your heart, and it's such an early, ebullient cinematic climax that Arnold dares repeat it two hours later, cranking up the song again in a more fraught, »

The latest film from writer-director Jacques Audiard (A Prophet, Rust and Bone) is a sober, utterly compelling look at a man who flees from his native Sri Lanka—and its brutal civil war—to start a new life in Paris. But this is no ordinary fish-out-of-water story. Dheepan (the leading character's name) is a man who is desperate for peace and solace in his life. In order to be granted asylum in France, he finds a woman to pose as his wife; she in turn has already abducted an orphaned girl to pretend to be her daughter. Together, this faux family makes its way to a new country where they don't speak the language and barely communicate with each other. In time, Dheepan secures...

Inasmuch as anything can be called "official" in the unscientific business of Oscar-watching, the early-fall festival trifecta of Venice, Telluride and Toronto marks the official start of awards season: Venice, in particular, is on a roll, having premiered the last two best picture winners ("Spotlight" and "Birdman," not to mention 2013's close runner-up "Gravity") in calmly European style before the noise built up on the other side of the pond.
Happily situated in the less frenzied days of spring, Cannes sits at a respectable distance from the mania of the U.S. awards derby. It is, after all, a festival principally devoted to the kind of high-art world cinema that rarely rules the Oscars: For every Palme d'Or winner like "The Pianist" or "Amour" that breaks through to Academy voters, there are several others ("Winter Sleep," "Blue Is the Warmest Color," "4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days") that aren't remotely on their wavelength. »

French filmmaker Jacques Audiard ("Rust and Bone," "A Prophet") brings his customary mix of muscular atmosphere and tense intimacy to "Dheepan," about a trio of Sri Lankan immigrants making do in a gang-infested Parisian banlieue that is, in certain ways, as much of a prison as the war-ravaged country they left behind. The winner of last year's Palme D'Or at Cannes, and anchored by galvanizing performances from leads Jesuthasan Anthonythasan and Kalieaswari Srinivasan, it further cements Audiard as a singular chronicler of roiling souls desperately navigating a way out of circumstances that threaten to upend them entirely. Like his other. »

It begins with chaos: shouting voices calling out in alarm, a cacophony of sound, and a flourish of a camera moving through a thick crowd. It ends with similar sounds and a similar shot, one far less sinister and disconcerting. What happens between these moments is oft times breathtaking in this remarkable film by one of the most celebrated of French directors. Jacques Audiard's career is now several decades old, but it was his 2009 Oscar nominated film Un prophete that caught considerable international attention. His next was Rust and Bone, a film that had some sublime moments but others that seemed both heavy-handed and gratuitous. It is, then, all the more pleasing that Audiard's latest is a touchstone of precision and craft. With an...

As Cannes approaches, Screen casts its eye back at the winners and losers of 2012 according to our jury of critics.
Screen International's jury of international critics has long been a strong indicator as to what will take the top prizes at the Cannes Film Festival – and 2012 was no different.
Sharing the Jury Grid's top spot in 2012 were Cristian Mungiu's Romanian drama Beyond the Hills and Michael Haneke's heart-breaking Amour.
Both films scored 3.3 out of 4 and Amour went away with the festival's coveted Palme d'Or.
Amour was Haneke's second film to win the Cannes top prize, after 2009's chilling pre-war drama The White Ribbon.
Beyond the Hills also performed strongly, winning awards for best screenplay and best actress for its two leading ladies Cristina Flutur and Cosmina Stratan. Director Mungiu has another shot at the Palme d'Or this year with Graduation (Bacalaureat).
It was a year for ties, with »

Joaquin Phoenix may become part of the family for Jacques Audiard's English-language debut, The Sisters Brothers.
Word comes by way of Deadline, revealing that the actor – who has also emerged as a frontrunner for the Jesus Christ role in Garth Davis' religious opus, Mary Magdalene – has opened negotiations to board the period piece, itself set against the Californian Gold Rush of the mid-1800s.
Lifted from Patrick deWitt's eye-catching and indeed award-winning novel of the same name, we learned late last year that John C. Reilly boarded Audiard's adaptation as either Eli or Charlie Steers, the brothers at the heart of deWitt's western. While Deadline didn't disclose official details of Phoenix's potential role, it's safe to assume he's in contention for the other sibling opposite Reilly.
Taking place in the Oregon of 1851, The Sisters Brothers "recounts the story of two brothers — Eli »

Jacques Audiard's confident Palme d'Or-winner has a rare and keen interest in its characters – a trio of Tamil refugees in Paris – and an exhilarating mastery of style
Related: Jacques Audiard: 'I wanted to give migrants a name, a shape… a violence of their own'
There is such exhilarating movie mastery in this powerful new film about Tamil refugees in France from director Jacques Audiard, who gave us A Prophet, Rust and Bone and The Beat That My Heart Skipped. It's bulging with giant confidence and packed with outbursts of that mysterious epiphanic grandeur, like moments of sunlight breaking through cloud-cover, with which Audiard endows apparently normal sequences and everyday details. There is also something not always found in movies or books or TV drama – that is to say, intelligent and sympathetic interest in other human beings. Every scene, every line, every frame has something of interest. »

★★★★☆ Jacques Audiard is a strict adherent to the notion of quality over quantity. A career now spanning more than two decades customarily sees "the French Scorsese" spend three to four years in the development of a project. His seventh feature, Dheepan, does not bristle and hum with the same kind of violent magnetism as A Prophet or Rust and Bone but retains their spellbinding lyricism. This is a more subdued, intimate picture, detailing the every day lives of three Sri Lankan refugees who exchange their war-torn homeland for the battleground of a French urban jungle. Though the director makes no ostensible claims of social commentary, this release into the current European climate makes for a timely and pertinent study.

Natural rocks and synthetic analogues can contain extremely small scaled magnetic minerals varying in shape from approximately equidimensional nanoparticles to lower dimensionally shaped lamellae resembling thin films or whiskers.
The magnetic ordering temperatures of such nanomagnetic structures can significantly depend on their size and shape. Here, a general method for detailed numerical or analytical calculations of these ordering temperatures is developed. Based on a modified mean-field approach, the result proves a refined version of a known scaling law that links atomic-layer number to the Curie temperatures of nanostructures. An analytic expression for the dependence of the Curie temperature on the atomic-layer number is obtained for thin films and rectangular nanostructures. It is confirmed by comparison to experimental results.

The present invention relates to an arrangement for control of the cursor of a display for a computer.
A pointer for moving a cursor on a display for a computer may conventionally consist of a mouse provided with a ball, which is brought to rotate against a plane surface during the movement of the mouse. The relative movement of the mouse in different directions, and the corresponding rotating movements of the ball, cause a corresponding change of the coordinates of the cursor on the screen. A long movement on the screen in a certain direction may be achieved on a small surface by occasionally lifting the mouse during the movement and replacing it in a previous position.
One alternative to a conventional mouse consists of an arrangement comprising a control ball, which in a fixed position can be rotated around an arbitrary axis. The ball is resting in a special cradle, provided with sensors, which translates the movements of the ball into corresponding, relative changes of the coordinates of the cursor. One advantage with this alternative is that long movements in the same direction is easily achieved by a continuous rotation of the ball around the same axis.
In another case, the pointer may comprise a keypad, by means of which a change in the coordinates of the cursor is achieved by a finger being moved over the keypad in various directions, while the finger is lightly pressed against the keypad. A long movement in the same direction can take place in a similar way as with a mouse, by lifting the finger during the movement and replacing it in a previous position.
In order to achieve click functions in the above cases, two keys are normally used, one key for "left click" and "double click" and another key for "right click". In the latter case, in which the pointer comprises a keypad, the "left click" and "double click" functions may alternatively be achieved by a tap with the finger on the keypad once or twice.
In the example mentioned above, it is normally assumed that the user is working at a table or a desk, onto which, at least, the pointer, keyboard and possibly also the screen are placed. A pointer, in particular, requires actually that an essentially plane surface with a certain area is available for the movements of the mouse. In other cases, the conditions may be different, for example when a table arrangement or the equivalent is missing. Hereby, a need exists for a different kind of pointer, which can be directly activated by the user without any need for an underlying surface. One example of this is described in Patent Abstracts of Japan 10301706A. This pointer comprises a small, short stick for movement of the cursor on the screen. The stick is mounted on a cylindrically shaped housing, which can be slipped on one of the forefingers. The pointer also comprises switches for the click functions corresponding to the left and right clicks on a mouse, and a radio transmitter for transferring relevant signals to a host computer. According to another example, described in Patent Abstracts of Japan 11015597A, a pointer with a fixed part and a movable, fingertip-handled ball is used. The fixed part comprises a holder for the ball and is provided with a click function. The fixed part is also provided with a string to be applied to a finger.
A disadvantage with the above described pointers is that the devices for adjusting the coordinates of the cursor on the screen, i.e. the short stick in the first case and the ball in the second case, have small dimensions, thereby making their handling more difficult compared to the previously described pointers. This is also the case for the devices controlling the click functions. A high accuracy in finger movements is required and more time may be needed in order to exactly adjust the coordinates of the cursor and activate a click function, especially for a person having a limited fine-motoric ability.
The use of a pointer for the control of the cursor of a computer screen or display is a risk factor for strain injuries. The use of a ordinary computer mouse for a stationary computer may cause pain, i.a. in the right of left arm and in the corresponding shoulder and wrist.
Thus, a need exists of an improved pointer for control of a cursor, both for large, stationary computer screens, portable computers (laptops), small palmtop displays and so called screenglasses, which reduces the risk for strain injuries, which does not require a plane surface or a special keypad on the computer, and which, at the same time, is easy to handle and has an efficient click function, and which can be easily handled by persons with a limited fine-motoric ability, as well.
The object of the present invention is to provide a novel and improved control arrangement for the cursor on a screen or display for a computer, which does not require any plane surface, which reduces the risk for strain injuries on the user, which is easy to handle, including efficient click functions which can be used when the person is walking around or are moving in any other way. The term computer is defined as a unit, comprising a CPU (Central Processing Unit), connected to the screen or the display.
These and other objects are achieved by the control arrangement according to claim 1. The control arrangement for a cursor on a screen or display for a computer comprises a hand unit with two sensing elements adapted to be applied along two fingers of the user. The sensing elements are brought in contact with each other in a point of intersection when the user is moving his fingers in relation to each other, the location of the intersecting point controlling the position of the cursor on the computer screen. The sensing elements are connected to a processing unit for the determination of the intersecting point between them when they are situated next to each other and for the control of the position of the cursor in two mutually perpendicular directions depending on the intersecting point.
Since the computer user can handle the control arrangement by a thumb and a forefinger, which is a high precision fingergrip that does not require a high fine-motoric ability, en efficient control of the cursor is achieved. Since the hand normally is relatively well equipped for using such a grip in many other contexts, the risk of strain injuries is small. Furthermore, no plane surface is required, and the hand unit can be used even though the computer user is mobile, for example by walking around.
The processing unit may comprise devices for measuring the resistance of the sensing elements and for determining the coordinates of the intersecting points from these measurements.
In order to achieve a select function, corresponding to a left click, double click or right click on a conventional computer mouse, one of the fingers, along which a sensing element is applied, can be quickly lifted twice and pressed against the other finger, along which a second sensing element is applied. By pressing the thumb against the forefinger, to the left and to the right, respectively, a left click can be distinguished from a right click.
A select function may also be achieved by quickly pressing a sensing element, applied along a finger, twice against another finger, along which no sensing element is applied.
The sensing elements may be formed from two stripes, of which one of the stripes has a comparatively higher resistance than the other stripe, which is a good conductor with a low resistance. At least one of the stripes has a resistance adapted to enable a determination of the coordinates. An electrically insulating layer of a flexible material is located between the stripes. Very little energy is needed to press the stripes together, through the electrically insulating layer, in order to bring them in electrical contact with each other. The stripes may also be applied on the inside of a pipe, which at least partly is made of a flexible material. The flexible part of the pipe is resiliently decompressed when the pressure is released, thereby interrupting the electrical contact between the stripes. The pipe may be hermetically sealed and filled with air or any other gas. A hand unit formed of such sensing elements may also be arranged to control the position of the cursor in third direction, which is perpendicular to the two first directions, by a finger, along which a sensing element is applied, being pressed against a finger along which no sensing elements is applied.
Another possible embodiment of the sensing element comprises wires having a uniform resistivity, so called resistance wires, which are brought in electrical contact with each other in their intersecting point.
The sensing elements may be attached along the thumb and another finger, preferably the forefinger, of a glove, or attached along the fingers to be used by fastening means, such as, for example, by means of rings, clamps, fingerstalls or by glue.
The processing unit may be arranged in a bracelet adapted to be applied around the wrist of the user.
The software of a computer controls the cursor, and a constant movement in a certain direction may be achieved by the intersecting point of the sensing elements being located in one of the end points of the sensing elements, corresponding to the end points of a coordinate axis.
Parameters regarding the control arrangement may be adjustable in the computer, such as the sensitivity of the movement of the cursor over the screen in relation to a movement of the intersecting point of the sensing elements.
The invention will now be described in more detail, with reference to the
The invented control arrangement for a cursor comprises a hand unit with two sensing elements, which in a preferred embodiment of the invention are formed as two threads adapted to be applied along two of the computer users fingers, which preferrably consist of the thumb and forefinger of one hand of the user. Thus, the threads will follow the movements of the thumb and the forefinger, and the threads correspond to two orthogonal axes, which determine the position of the cursor on a computer screen or display. Instead of on these fingers, the threads may be applied along the thumb and another finger on the same hand, or on an optional finger on one hand and an optional finger on the other hand.
The intersecting point between the threads when they are situated next to each other controls the position of the cursor on the computer screen, and when the intersecting point between the threads changes through movements of the thumb and forefinger, the cursor is also moved across the screen. In this way, the position of the cursor on the screen is controlled by the movements of the thumb and forefinger when the thumb and forefinger are situated next to each other so that the threads, thereby, also are situated next to each other. When the treads are not situated next to each other, the cursor is steady on the screen.
Selection, i.e. a function activation that may correspond to a left click, double click or right click on a conventional computer mouse, may be performed by the user quickly lifting one finger and replacing it against the other finger. Left- and right click, respectively, may be distinguished by the user utilizing the thumb and pressing it to the left side and to the right side against the forefinger, respectively.
A select function may also be implemented by pressing a sensing element, which is applied along the thumb, twice against a third finger, which is not provided with any sensing element.
Various select functions may also be performed in other ways that can be controlled by software in the computer. The sensitivity in the movements of the cursor at a relative movement of the fingers in relation to each other is controllable by the software.
Certain parameters regarding the control arrangement are preferrably easy to adjust by the user in the computer, such as e.g. the sensitivity of the cursor movements and the speed of the double click.
According to a preferred embodiment, a processing unit is connected to end points of the sensing elements, the processing unit comprising measuring arrangements for resistance values, such as a voltage source and an amperemeter. This processing unit may be shaped as a bracelet intended to be attached around the wrist of the user. The measuring devices are continuously measuring the resistance between certain endpoints of the sensing elements by applying a voltage and measuring the current. The processing unit registers changes in the measured resistance and transforms them into changes in coordinates of the intersecting point between the sensing elements and forwards the results to the computer for control of the cursor.
Thus, the hand unit 10 comprises two sensing elements, which preferably are shaped as threads 20, 30 and suitably are attached along one side of the forefinger and along the lower side of the thumb, for example sewed into a glove. The treads can be regarded as the axes of a two-dimensional coordinate system, and in
These measurings and calculations are preferably performed by a processing unit connected to endpoints of the sensing elements, and shaped e.g. as a bracelet, such as in a preferred embodiment of the invention.
According to a second embodiment of the invention, the necessary calculations are performed by a corresponding processing unit which is integrated with the computer and which communicates wirelessly with the hand unit by means of a radio link. The radiofrequency signal from the computer is received by passive circuits in the hand unit, which passive circuits transmit a resonant signal from which the computer continuously can calculate the coordinates of the intersecting point, and the movement of the cursor is controlled according to the movement of the intersecting point.
Scaling of the coordinates of the intersecting point may be desirable in order to achieve a suitable relation between the changes of these coordinates and the corresponding coordinates of the screen cursor. This may take place in the processing unit or in the computer by multiplicating the coordinates with a suitable scaling factor.
The sensing units, which suitably are shaped as threads, may be sewed into a glove or provided with fastening means for application on the fingers of the computer user, such as e.g. rings, clamps, fingercups or glue. The intersecting point 80 between the coordinate axes indicates the position of the cursor, and when it is moved by the thumb and forefinger being moved while situated next to each other, the cursor is moved across a screen or display. When the thumb and forefinger are not situated next to each other, the cursor remains steady. By the user repeatedly lifting the thumb and setting it down to the left and pulling it to the right, the cursor may be moved an optional distance to the right. Correspondingly, the cursor may be moved an optional distance upwards or downwards by repeated movements of the forefinger. When the intersecting point of the axes are located in one of the endpoints 40, 50, 60, 70 of the axes, a constant movement of the cursor into that direction is accomplished. The sensitivity of the movement of the cursor, i.e. the moved distance of the cursor at a certain moved distance of the finger, is controlled by software in the computer.
When the sensing elements are formed like that, the hand unit may also be arranged to control the cursor in a third direction, perpendicular to the two others, by means of a sensing element applied along the thumb, which is pressed against a third finger not provided with any sensing element. This means that a hand unit can be used at 3-D-vision on the screen. The thumb against a third finger may optionally correspond to the scrolling wheel on a mouse, or may be adapted to influence the value of a parameter, e.g. for the control of the volume, brightness or contrast of the screen.
According to a second embodiment of the invented control arrangement, the sensing elements are formed from wires with a uniform resistivity, e.g. so called resistance wires, which may be a metallic thread formed of a particular alloy. In order to find out the coordinates of the intersecting point between wires with a uniform resistivity, the resistance must be measured between several endpoints on the hand unit. If the resistance between the endpoints 50 and 60 in
X=(R 12 +R 11 −R y)/2 (1)
Besides the resistances R11 och R12 in the equations (1) and (2) additional methods exist for the selection of a pair of resistance values for the calculation of x and y. In this case, the resistances between the endpoints 40 and 60 and between the endpoints 40 and 70 must be measured, as well. The pairs have to consist of "adjacent" resistance values. In the equations, it is assumed that the total resistances Rx and Ry for the sensing elements constituting the x-axis and the y-axis, respectively, are known or is measured. The three other methods are not described here in detail, but they offer a possibility to control the deviations in a result caused by defects in the sensing elements. An alarm of an error may be transmitted to the user as an otical or a sounding signal.
The present invention is not limited to the above described embodiments, and may be modified within the scope of the appended claims.

Hello Lovelies!
I've been a little remiss of late in my postings and it's because (drumroll…..!) I'm in London! I've moved here to live for the next two years, so I'll try to keep you updated
I've been busy shopping up a storm, drinking too much tea and visiting one too many galleries and museums (they're almost always free here??! Winning!)
Anyway, here are are some of my happiest snaps and some of my recent purchases – i've been visiting Topshop a lot since I got here (you know you would do it too) – Oxford St Topshop is madness, but it is also amazing!!!
I'd be been after Flowerbomb from Viktor & Rolf for a while so I decided to spoil myself. I also got a lovely bronzed, rose gold pigment from MAC called Mythology – it's gorgeous!!!! And the shoes and trousers are from Topshop.
And here are some touristy shots; Hampton Court Palace, The London Eye, Portobello Road Markets and me looking pretty happy about all of it!
Where do you like to go or to eat or to shop in London?

TOKYO Sony Corp (6758.T) will this month host its first major Playstation meeting in two years, sparking a flare-up in online speculation the Japanese consumer electronics giant is preparing to unveil the successor to its 70 million-selling PS3 games console.
Sony declined to say whether it would release a new product at the meeting in New York on February 20. "We will be talking about the Playstation business," spokesman Masaki Tsukakoshi said on Friday. A Google search for "Sony Feb 20 Playstation" returned more than 7 million hits.
The last time Sony held a Playstation event, in January 2011, it presented a protoype of its handheld Vita console. Before that, it convened a gathering in 2005 two months after it first demonstrated the PS3 concept. A meeting in 1999 revealed designs for the PS2.
It has been more than six years since Sony launched the PS3 home console, a longer gap than between it and its PS2 predecessor, adding to the anticipation that it will soon disclose its next gaming concept.
Since Sony's last home console launch, the games market has been transformed by the boom in smartphones and tablet computers that have wooed players with free or cheap games.
Sony and other console makers Nintendo Co Ltd 7974.OS and Microsoft Corp (MSFT.O) now have to contend with competition from hand-held devices made by Apple Inc (AAPL.O), Samsung Electronics (005930.KS) and others.
Analysts expect that tablets and other mobile devices will match the power and graphics of today's games consoles within a few years.
Struggling under competitive pressure, Nintendo on Wednesday cut its sales target for the Wii U, successor to its 100 million-selling Wii, to 4 million machines by the end of March from its launch in November, compared with an earlier forecast for 5.5 million.

A truly delightful recipe, so easy to make and so delicious, especially if - like me - you love spinach! I made this risotto with homemade chicken broth and 4 cups of fresh baby spinach leaves (one more cup than specified; I often increase spinach in recipes) and in step 6, I added a 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg, one tablespoon of chopped fresh basil chopped, a 1/4 cup of feta (and therefore NO salt, of course) and a 1/4 cup of pine nuts. The yummiest risotto imaginable: just superb! This one I'll be making often. Thanks, KITTENCAL!.
This is a delicious side dish. The only change I made was to use sweet red pepper instead of green. It was what I had on hand and the red pepper added nice color. I had reservations that this could be so easy and would bake in the oven; it was perfect after 35 minutes. Thank you very much for posting this recipe. I will certainly make this dish again.
Wow! This one is amazing. I threw in 4 oz. mushrooms, and took Bluemoon Downunder's recommendation of chopped fresh basil, feta and someone else's recommendation of sun-dried tomatoes. I would make this again and again.

Dangerous new drug in Rutland City, police warnAugust 01,2013Staff Report
Rutland Police say there is a new and dangerous combination of drugs in the city - a pill capsule mixture of methamphetamine, ecstasy, heroin and perhaps crack cocaine as well.
Less than a week after police seized 18 pills filled with that mixture during a traffic stop in Rutland, a rapid-fire number of drug overdoses Wednesday have city police worrying that drug cocktail is gaining a foothold in the community and that more overdoses might follow.
None of the six overdoses reported Wednesday proved fatal but city police Detective Sgt. James Tarbell said it was only a matter of time until the combination killed someone.
"When you introduce a depressant and a stimulant into you body at the same time, your body isn't built for that," Tarbell said.

Most of the comedy in It's Me, It's Me is behavioral, playing off the plausible notion that meeting exact copies of yourself would not be terrifying so much as socially awkward.
Though the film is occasionally frustrating and confusing, the modern life it is commenting on is certainly that, too.
Just strange enough to get inside your head, it's ultimately less committed to the meaning behind its events than the lucid means by which they take place.

The women had staged a brief performance of an anti-Putin "punk prayer" in Moscow's Christ the Savior Cathedral; their subsequent arrest and drawn-out imprisonment (which saw the women, two of whom are mothers of young children, locked up awaiting trial for some seven months and denied adequate food or rest) seemed to represent an attempt by Prime Minister Vladimir Putin's autocratic ruling party to ally itself with the once-banned Russian Orthodox Church — which had itself been a locus of resistance under the old Soviet regime.The Pussy Riot case drew international attention thanks in part to statements and support from pop stars like Madonna and Björk. The reading of the verdict today was a drawn-out affair, and the judge paraded victims of the group's stunt — people who claimed they'd been "morally harmed" by the site of the balaclava-clad women yelling on the church altar — before handing down the sentence. Outside, hundreds gathered to protest, and opposition leader and former chess champion Garry Kasparov was arrested along with several others. "Katya, Masha and I are in jail but I don't consider that we've been defeated," Tolokonnikova said in her closing statement last week. "Just as the dissidents weren't defeated.

George Zimmerman Waives "Stand Your Ground" Pretrial Hearing
George Zimmerman, the man charged with fatally shooting Trayvon Martin, stood before Circuit Judge Debra Nelson on Tuesday morning and told her he will not have a "stand your ground" hearing before his trial, per his attorney's recommendation.
Mark O'Mara, Zimmerman's defense attorney, told Nelson that there was no requirement for the immunity hearing to take place before trial and that it could be requested after the prosecution presented its case.
"We'd much rather have the jury address the issue of criminal liability or lack thereof," O'Mara told the judge.
O'Mara's point is that his client shouldn't be asked to waive his rights and that he might argue for immunity once the prosecutor presents all evidence in its case against Zimmerman.

Today's hearing began with several minor discovery issues. Along with Zimmerman's not seeking immunity hearing, Nelson ordered the state to turn over cell phone data it hasn't turned in and for both the state and defense to swap any enhanced audio of the 911 recordings of screams that led to the shooting.
The defense was also granted five more witnesses to its list.
Zimmerman's attorney also requested the court unseal details on a civil settlement Trayvon's parents received from Zimmerman's homeowner's association. O'Mara argues that the settlement could influence their testimony, should they be called as witnesses.
Nelson will allow the defense and prosecutors to see full copies of the settlement, but the public will see only a redacted version.
Zimmerman has pleaded not guilty, claiming self-defense. Martin was fatally shot in February 2012 during a fight with Zimmerman in a Sanford gated community.

- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1⁄4 teaspoon poultry seasoning
- 1⁄4 cup butter or 1⁄4 cup margarine, melted
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (about 1 pound)

- Place melted butter in another bowl.
- Dip chicken in butter, then into cereal mixture.

We really liked this too! I'm always looking for a coating for oven chicken breasts,that won't dry out the chicken,or have the coating stick to the pan,before you can even have a bite. I made 5, in case my daughter would want another, and she did! So no left-overs here either! Only thing different I did was lightly salt and pepper the chicken before coating,and increased the thyme and poultry seasoning. I didn't have to drizzle with left-over butter, because I used that Reynold's Release stuff,and it turned out great. Thanks a lot - it will be in my list of chicken dishes now! MEP
Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe, Jennifer! I originally planned on using mayonnaise instead of the butter (because it's the only way i've ever had moist baked chicken), but at the last minute decided to try the recipe as written first. I'm so glad i did! All three of us really enjoyed it. My husband just kept repeating how moist it was. But, the 5 star rating comes from the fact that it was the first time in a very long time that we didn't have any leftover chicken! This recipe was incredibly easy, and fun too! The rice krispies would make fun popping sounds when i would check the meat for doneness. My son looked at me funny when he saw me rolling chicken in rice krispies instead of bread crumbs, but he doesn't think it's so weird now!
This is a delightfully easy chicken breast recipe. It comes out sinfully moist and tender. Note: I used "Special K" as the cereal and it worked just fine. Mickey

America's "News" is AWOL on many important stories they should report to the public.
my search today found only 3 sources of Minimum reporting on the Army Ft. Hood trial of the admitted shooter of 11/5/09.
www.usatoday.com (one very short article)
cnsnews.com/commentary….3 pages on "3 Forgotten Facts.."
IMO, in the Court of Public Opinion, not only does the US-born Muslim, Army Major Hasan, deserve "Guilty" (why was a "trial" necessary?)…but Army brass and Pentagon brass deserve "dereliction of duty" judgment of "Guilty".
President Obama and DOJ Holder deserve malfeasance and dereliction of duty by demanding a trial, by labeling a violent Jihadist attack on unarmed military people as "workplace violence"…-preventing victims and families from full medical care (families are having to pay by personal funds) and keeping deserving heroes from military recognition in actions to protect others during the attack.
13 military dead plus one preborn baby dead and 32 injured.
Major Hasan gave his plan openly in a 2007 "Power Point presentation to fellow Army doctors….ending "We (Muslims)
love death more than you love life"…Major Hasan carried a card "SoA" (Soldier of Allah") and "Subhanahu Wa ta'ala"
(Islamic for "Glory to Him, the Exalted".
In his self-defense Hasan claims to be an Islamic soldier in the war to make this land (America) the land of Allah.
With Islamic apologists and cover-ups throughout our Executive branch and at the top in the Pentagon….isn't that
100% fitting the category of Treason?
When the country was young every political party had their own biased newspaper. These days investigative reporting can be hazardous to your career.
The Seattle PI is an online paper these days, the Seattle Times is still in print, the SF Chronicle is a shadow of its former self.
Actually, Hasan tried to plead guilty a bit back.
Thing is, there's a quirk in the UCMJ (Uniform Code of Military Justice) that prevents people from pleading guilty to capital crimes.
There is The High Country News, www.hcn.org. A very good read every single edition, along with the New York Times.
The news should print more pictures of Hasan.
After all, he did murder fellow soldiers when he went nuts. But then he was crippled when they took him down.
The military makes him plead not guilty, that is cruel punishment indeed.
There he sits,nuts beyond redemption, wanting to die, hating himself and his totally failed life..
And the military is keeping him alive. I love it, maybe a few close up pictures showing his anguish.
In print, no substitute for hardcopy.
@neocon…..Hasan pled GUILTY from the beginning.
He was armed with weaponS and much ammo in a deployment center where no one was allowed to be armed.
He would have kept reloading and continued firing at innocent victims but a civilian police person ran in and shot him in the leg, another person came in and fired 5 shots to get Hasan to stop shooting, preventing further murders.
Obama and Holder may "know the constitution" but they have been deliberately violating the clear wording of the Constitution from day one of their regime.
Maybe the UCMJ ban on pleas of "guilty" to capital crimes was the reason the administration did not find some excuse to put the trial in a civilian court?
Hasan is defending himself and his reasons have been rejected as a means of defense.
Hasan didn't go "nuts." He just went all Islamic soldier on his fellows.
Of course they were rejected.
Hasan tried to go "defense of others" on the basis that he was defending The Taliban; such a defense would have taken his trial from "murder" to "treason".
I saw an interesting article on Hasan in my local Sunday paper. The reason this is taking so long is that, once he is most certainly found guilty, he will start the appeals process. The burden of proof is great enough that the prosecution wants to ensure that no part of the investigation or court proceedings can be questioned. Even the wording of the judge's instructions to the jury can throw the entire case out, and they have no intention of allowing that to happen.
Besides, he's in jail, and there's no possibility of him going free until after his trial, conviction, and appeal, so the people who want him convicted without trial should be happy.
I've always read that the comics and editorial art are the most consistently read areas of any paper. Ironically, although I mourn the loss of paper printed editorials and news stories from the local big-city papers, I am happy to see the comics on-line. I see all my old favorites consistently and have found new, interesting ones (whether or not I agree with them).
I always find it interesting, and quite sad, that most of those on these posts who rabidly defend the Constitution are the first to throw someone under the bus without Constitutional guarantees.
I don't see how murder could be left out of it. And they could just try him again on the murders too.
I don't because they started out that way then went to very low pay for lots of work. Too years for some of them to get any decent pay for their skills.

Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
It's being viewed as an uncommon environmental victory in a conservative majority court. The Supreme Court has in recent years generally sided against the federal government's nationwide clean air policies. The high court has voted to uphold federal rules concerning coal-powered power plants in 28 states; a rare victory for the Obama administration's green policies.
Leaders in some mostly conservative states say lost jobs and higher energy costs are at stake from what they see as arbitrary and ambiguously enforced regulations.

Keywords: Supreme Court, coal-powered power plants, federal regulations
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - A 6-2 majority of the justices which upheld the previous regulations.
The justices were presented with a complex decision. Whether an "upwind" state that is polluting a "downwind" state is free of any obligations under the so-called Good Neighbor provision. This decision would be followed through -- unless and until federal regulators have quantified the upwind state's contribution to downwind state's air pollution problems.
Shop for mom today. Buy her a gift she'll love!
Seen as an important test of federal regulatory power, the rules were issued two years ago by the Environmental Protection Agency. The ruling was challenged by a coalition of 15 states, as well as several energy companies and labor unions.
Leaders in some mostly conservative states say lost jobs and higher energy costs are at stake from what they see as arbitrary and ambiguously enforced regulations.
The White House along with its environmental allies say that Americans' health should come first, and that as many as 45,000 deaths could be prevented each year if the Cross-State Pollution Rule would be allowed to take effect.
The high court agreed, to a large extent. "The Good Neighbor Provision, in our view, entrusts interpretive authority to EPA," Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said. "We are satisfied that EPA's construction of the statute reasonably responded to a perplexing problem the statute itself does not resolve."
A coalition of eight of nine governors from the affected downwind states, just before the court's December arguments, signed a petition urging the EPA to force nine southern and Midwestern upwind states to reduce smog and soot emissions from power plants.
The one downwind governor who did not sign was New Jersey's Chris Christie. Democratic or Independent governors criticized an earlier federal appeals court ruling against federal oversight, saying it "allows upwind states to postpone the costs of air pollution controls for years, while in the interim downwind states and their residents are forced to suffer the present consequences of that pollution."
Enforcement of what is known as the Transport Rule was adopted by the EPA in 2011, but remained on hold while the court cases worked toward conclusion. It was later agreed that the agency be allowed to put the revised regulations in place.
The justices have yet to issue a ruling in another related and closely watched environmental case: can the EPA tighten emission standards for "stationary" greenhouse gas sources, such as power plants in what the government says is an effort to stem the effects of global warming.
