The present invention generally relates to baro altimeter and terrain awareness and warning systems (TAWS), and more particularly relates to integrity monitoring of such systems, and even more particularly relates to methods and apparatuses for increasing confidence levels associated with information provided by baro altimeter and TAWS systems.
In the past, baro altitude and TAWS systems have provided critical information to pilots and flight crews. Avionics engineers have routinely endeavored to provide high integrity systems with associated high confidence levels for the information they provide. One approach has been to provide independent and dual redundant TAWS and baro altitude systems on each aircraft. Independent and redundant TAWS and baro altitude systems would typically have complete duplication of equipment that exists on-board the aircraft. For example, dual GPS receivers, dual terrain databases and dual database servers would be required for an independent dual redundant TAWS system.
While these independent and dual redundant systems may have many advantages in particular uses, they also have significant drawbacks. One common drawback of these designs is that they are very expensive. Another drawback of this approach at improving system integrity is the potential for common failure modes or common error sources. For example, for the TAWS, either the two TAWS systems are required to use two independently derived and supplied terrain databases, which are very expensive, or it is required to accept the potential for database errors which are common to each independent system. Additionally, errors in GPS positioning arising from sources other than the receivers on-board the aircraft are common to a redundant TAWS system. For the baro altitude sensor, dual identical systems have potential for common errors in the quality of current local baroset values available and to pilot error in entering such information.
Consequently, there exists a need for improved methods and apparatuses for improving the confidence levels in information provided by baro altitude and TAWS systems.
It is an object of the present invention to provide an aircraft with baro altitude and TAWS systems having high confidence levels associated with the information they provide.
It is a feature of the present invention to utilize a radar altimeter to confirm information being generated by the TAWS system and/or the baro altimeter.
It is an advantage of the present invention to provide integrity enhancement without the need for completely dual redundant systems.
It is another advantage of the present invention to detect systemic remote errors which would not be detectable with on-board dual redundant TAWS and baro altimeter systems.
It is another feature to utilize a statistical sampling method to rapidly correlate measured height above ground data, obtained from a radar altimeter, with respect to calculated or expected height above ground data from a TAWS system.
It is another advantage of the present invention to provide a quick and cost-effective method for detecting a TAWS system which has failed or is providing excessively erroneous information.
It is yet another feature to utilize a statistical sampling method to rapidly correlate measured height above ground data, obtained from a radar altimeter in combination with elevation of terrain information from a TAWS system, with locally corrected baro altitude information.
It is yet another advantage of the present invention to provide a quick and cost-effective method for detecting a baro altitude system which has failed or has an excessive baroset error.
The present invention is an apparatus and method for monitoring the integrity of baro altitude and TAWS systems which are designed to satisfy the aforementioned needs, provide the previously stated objects, include the above-listed features and achieve the already articulated advantages. The present invention is carried out in a "dual redundant-less" manner in a sense that the need to provide identical and duplicate baro altitude and TAWS hardware has been greatly reduced.
Accordingly, the present invention is an integrity monitoring system for TAWS and baro altitude systems which utilizes a radio altimeter and statistical sampling to confirm a high degree of correlation between measured height above ground with calculated height above ground and/or between corrected baro altitude and calculated height above means sea level.
The invention may be more fully understood by reading the following description of the preferred embodiments of the invention, in conjunction with the appended drawings wherein:
FIG. 1 is a simplified block diagram of a TAWS system of the present invention which shows a comparison and processing of output from the TAWS and a radar altimeter.
FIG. 2 is a simplified block diagram of a TAWS system of the present invention which shows an additional data source, the baro corrected altitude.
FIG. 3 is a side view of a representative aircraft where the dashed lines represent the actual vertical path profile of the aircraft and the dotted lines represent an erroneous vertical path profile as generated with reliance upon baro corrected altitude.
Now referring to the drawings, wherein like numerals refer to like matter throughout, there is shown in FIG. 1 an integrity enhanced TAWS system, generally designated 100, having a navigation system 102, which can be any type of precise three-dimensional area navigation system, such as a GPS or inertial reference system with baro aiding. Navigation system 102 provides aircraft navigation and guidance information to other systems on-board the aircraft, such as cockpit displays and autopilot systems. Navigation system 102 also provides three-dimensional p (position) and v (velocity) signals to TAWS system 104, which are well known in the art and are also known by such names as enhanced ground proximity warning systems and ground collision avoidance systems. TAWS system 104 would normally generate information to drive cockpit displays and to provide visual and aural terrain hazard alerts to the pilot and flight crew. During a typical process of generating such information, a typical TAWS system would also calculate, among others, a current estimated height above terrain datum. This could be done by subtracting a ground elevation datum from a current elevation, above sea level for the aircraft. This calculated height above terrain, or expected radar altitude, is depicted in FIG. 1 as h′. FIG. 1 also shows a radar altimeter 106, which is well known in the art and is commonly found on most commercial and military aircraft. Radar altimeter 106 measures the current height above the ground, or actual radar altitude, depicted herein as h. This is done using well-known methods. Typically, radar altimeter 106 can produce a continuous stream of height above ground data for use by various on-board instruments. The h and h′ signals are mixed at comparator 108, where a difference, Δh, is generated.
Δh is sampled frequently and is used, by statistical variance generator 110, to calculate a short-term statistical correlation (variance) of the difference of h′ and h. Preferably, statistical variance generator 110 is sufficiently robust to provide variable performance depending upon the particular needs at the moment. For example, the time of historical statistical correlation between h and h′ can be dependent upon the stage of flight. Data input 111 may provide such stage of flight information and may be any system which provides information relating to operational characteristics of the aircraft, such as the stage of flight, flap configuration, landing gear configuration etc. During an en route phase, the time may be several minutes, while during approach, when a high level of integrity is required, the time may be just a few seconds. If the variance of the samples Δh exceeds a predetermined value, as detected by threshold detector 112, a warning alert may be given to the flight crew, either aurally or visually or both. The crew then could take action to verify the integrity of navigation system 102 and TAWS system 104, by independent means, or to reduce the criticality of the flight operation, e.g. by terminating the approach etc.
Statistical variance generator 110 and threshold detector 112 may be a stand-alone processor or in a preferred embodiment, statistical variance generator 110 and threshold detector 112 may be integrated with other processors on the aircraft, such as a processor in the TAWS system 104.
In operation, the apparatus and method of the present invention could function as follows:
An aircraft is provided with a navigation system 102, a TAWS system 104 and a radar altimeter 106. TAWS system 104 continuously generates an expected radar altitude h′, while radar altimeter 106 continuously generates a measured actual radar altitude h. The difference, Δh, between h and h′ is sampled frequently to calculate a short-term statistical correlation of h and h′. According to statistical principles, the variance of the sample set (shown below as S2) of Δh is an unbiased representation of the actual variance (known as σ2) of the continuous Δh over the sampling period, where:
Where n is a relatively large number, such as 30 to 100, or any other number depending upon the confidence level desired.
A sampling rate of 10 hz with a period of 10 seconds may be used in a typical implementation of this method.
If S2 is greater than a predetermined threshold, then a warning may be issued.
Now referring to FIG. 2, there is shown a system of the present invention, generally designated 200, including a true mean sea level altitude summer 202, which combines the measured height "h" above terrain from the radar altimeter 106 and the terrain elevation signal "t" from the TAWS system 104 to arrive at a true mean sea level altitude or MSL altitude signal "y."
A corrected baro altimeter 204 is shown providing a locally corrected baro altitude signal "y" which is provided to baro altimeter summer 206 which subtracts "y" from "y" to generate an instantaneous baroset error value Δy.
Δy is statistically averaged by baro statistical variance generator 210 in accordance with a predetermined averaging method to arrive at a stabilized baroset error "x". The structure of the apparatus providing the functions of baro statistical variance generator 210 may be similar or the same structure or hardware as that which provides for statistical variance generator 110. Baro statistical variance generator 210 provides its stabilized baroset error "x" to a display and to a baroset error threshold detector 212, which compares "x" with a predetermined threshold of baroset error and issues a crew alert when "x" exceeds the threshold. The pilot or member of the flight crew then can adjust the local baroset or use alternate means to confirm the accuracy of the local baroset value.
Now referring to FIG. 3, there is shown the terrain 300 and a simplified vertical path profile of an aircraft 302, which shows the radio altitude "h", the calculated true msl altitude "y", the elevation of terrain "t" and the Δy (which is y-y′, the corrected baro altitude). An alternately positioned aircraft 304 is shown disposed at an altitude y′ as provided by the corrected baro altimeter. The dashed line represents the true vertical path profile, while the dotted line represents the corrected baro vertical path profile. The difference between these two path profiles, at any given point along the path, is Δy, the instantaneous baroset error value.
It is thought that the method and apparatus of the present invention will be understood from the foregoing description, and that it will be apparent that various changes may be made in the form, construct steps and arrangement of the parts and steps thereof, without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention or sacrificing all of their material advantages. The form herein described is merely a preferred exemplary embodiment thereof.

BP May Attempt to Plug Oil Leak With Mud Next Week
BP Plc may try early next week to plug an oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico by stuffing it with drilling mud, as President Barack Obama named two men today to lead a commission investigating the spill.
Three drilling rigs and 16 remote-operated vehicles are being positioned for the attempt, which could come as soon as May 25, Doug Suttles, BP's chief operating officer for exploration and production, said yesterday at a press conference in Louisiana.
In his weekly address, Obama named Democrat Bob Graham, a former U.S. senator and Florida governor, and Republican William Reilly, a former Environmental Protection Agency administrator, to lead a presidential commission to investigate the spill and find ways to "prevent a similar disaster from ever happening again."
BP continues to capture a portion of the oil as it prepares its attempt to stop flow from the well about 5,000 feet (1,524 meters) underwater. The leak began after an April 20 explosion aboard the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig, which London-based BP leased from Transocean Ltd.
The "top kill" method to halt the leak requires mud twice the density of water be pumped into the well using a Helix Energy Solutions Group Inc. rig, Suttles said. The mud should stop the flow so the well can be sealed with cement, he said.
'Unique Problems'
The method "has been done in land operations and in shallow water, but it has never been done at these depths," Suttles said. "That presents unique problems."
BP may skim and burn oil on the surface of the Gulf today and apply chemical dispersants to reduce the amount that washes ashore, John Curry, a BP spokesman, said today in a telephone interview.
"Since the weather is going to be pretty good, we'll probably use most of our tools today," Curry said. "We're just continuing to do what we can to stop the flow and mitigate the impact."
The beach at Louisiana's Grand Isle State Park was closed because of oil, according to the website of the state's Department of Culture, Recreation & Tourism.
BP is using a tube to divert some of the spill to a drillship. The company captured oil at the rate of about 2,200 barrels of oil and 5 million cubic feet of gas yesterday, Mark Salt, a BP spokesman, said today in a telephone interview. BP has recovered an average of 2,000 barrels of oil a day since the tube was inserted on May 16, Suttles said yesterday.
Oil Flow Rate
BP said May 20 that the recovery rate had reached the equivalent of 5,000 barrels a day, the same rate it estimated oil was leaking from the well since April 28. That led to criticism from U.S. Representative Edward Markey, a Massachusetts Democrat, when a video feed he'd requested from BP showed oil and gas still leaking into the sea.
The 5,000 barrel-a-day rate is still the "best estimate" of the amount coming from the well, Suttles said.
A team of government and academic scientists will calculate how much oil is leaking, Jane Lubchenco, administrator of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said May 20. The report is expected next week, U.S. Coast Guard Rear Admiral Mary Landry said at yesterday's press conference.
"Like all of you, and the outside world, I have shared a huge sense of frustration that we have not yet been able to stop the leak," BP Chief Executive Officer Tony Hayward said in a May 21 e-mail to employees. "Although it can never be quick enough, we are making progress."
Hayward said the depth of water in which they are attempting the "top kill" method means "we cannot take its success for granted."
Corexit Oil Dispersant
About 670,000 gallons of Nalco Holding Co.'s Corexit oil dispersant has been applied by ships, aircraft and remote-operated vehicles to break up the oil into droplets, according to a statement from the oil-response command today.
In response to a directive from the Environmental Protection Agency, BP notified the agency on May 20 it had found no alternative to Corexit that is as effective and less toxic, Suttles said.
The EPA directed the company to find a less toxic product because the volume of dispersant used is "unprecedented," and the damage to sea life may outweigh the benefits. BP is willing to test alternatives in cooperation with the EPA, Suttles said.
The unified command for the spill said yesterday that it won't use hair "booms" to soak up oil on the water's surface.
Sinking Hair Boom
"One problem with the hair boom is that it became water-logged and sank within a short period of time," Charlie Henry, scientific support coordinator for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in Robert, Louisiana, said in a statement.
The U.S. Coast Guard and the Army Corps of Engineers are still evaluating Louisiana's proposal to dredge sand to fill gaps in eroded barrier islands and protect wetlands from oil, Coast Guard Commandant Thad Allen said yesterday during a conference call with reporters.
Ten U.S. Senators, including Louisiana Democrat Mary Landrieu, asked the U.S. Interior Department in a letter yesterday to lift a ban on offshore drilling permits for shallow-water platforms, considered less risky than deep-water rigs like the Deepwater Horizon.
The ban has been in place while the department reviews the accident on the rig. The senators said $135 million in revenue could be lost if the ban is extended through June, according to estimates from the International Association of Drilling Contractors.

The staff at the restaurant were very helpfull, and there was always atleast one staff member who could speak English which was very helpful to me.
The Hotel is more like a nice Motel I feel, and is very issolated being on the side of the A6 Motorway, It would be perfect for a quick rest stop, but I would not recomend extended stay, as you will quickly run out of things to do
no staff when i left at 6am, slow check in, no early breakfast, expensive
Good room, fantastic staff and management made the stay fun, relaxed and enjoyable!! Thanks guys!! Excellent stay!! See you next time I'm in the Netherlands!
That I was unable to get a room here earlier in my trip as it was booked out!!
A few minutes from the train station in Lelystad, clean and tidy, friendly helpful staff, few bars and resturants near by, under a hour to Amsterdam central, pleasent stay, small saving booking the aviodrome package
This hotel is a pleasant surpise. From the outside it is nothign much as is Lelystad itself. Inside is a high class, superb service and good food. Rooms are typical Netherlands style. ie: IKEA, brushed white brick work and minimal design but the beds are to die for. Ultimate comfort.
I am not being flippant but considering the amount of Englisah people who also stay at this hotel they really need to sort out the breakfast. A quick import of Danish bacon and some walls sausages would make this a fantastic hotel
I arrived late at night and left early, therefor I can not give you a proper reply, I expected a reacher breakfast,
evry thing was quite OK, nothing special
cleanliness of the room
The hotel room was large and clean, with both a shower and a bath, and good bed.
the room was a bit noisy (with noise coming from other rooms, not outside as it is in a quiet area)
Location, reception, breakfast and dinner area, quiet location, facilities, swimming pool
Although room was very clean there was a smell comming from the bathroom
We were not really in the castle but in a part called the hoeve. The beds were not very good, too soft. Television was very limited for NL. You could really hear the neighbors. Shower was just ok. When asking I found out that rooms in castle did not even had bath and toilet in the room. Restaurant food was excellent and waitress was very nice.
See above
The beautiful surroundings, as expected for a castle. The area was very quiet, no noise from railway, road oe whatsoever
The room was very moderate and small, but clean
Central location
wireless signal is low, it is really hard to get it. so get a cable from reception. they turn of central heating during the day and night. so please be aware of that if you are staying in winter.
Nice hotel, small but well-proportioned rooms. Comfy beds! Wi-Fi is a bit hit and miss but wired connection is fine (and all inclusive). Good location for bars, restaurants, station, etc
As above, wi-fi reception (in some rooms?) not so great - but barely an issue given free use of cable for wired connection.
Goede bedden, evt. extra kussens. Goed ontbijt. Good beds, with extra pillows if neaded. Nice breakfast
I ate in the restaurant, where I ordered a steak medium-rare. I had to give it back 2 times: the first was medium-welldone, the second was cold. The excuse: it was difficult. I had to explain to the waiter what medium-rare meant. The beds are good, but try a local restaurant for your diner ;)
Very smart rooms, great decor. Comfortable beds, air-con.
Still have world's worst remote contro/user-interfacel for tv!
The only minus point was the service in the evening. When ordering drinks it took too long an driks were forgotten
some where to sleep!! when there is no choice.
During the time we stayed 5 nights and it was week days they did not change the sheets and for soap and shampoo we had to ask at night. But the employee are friendly may be they were ordered not to leave any soaps or clean the room. We had two rooms and it was like that and every time we were told that this is not happening again.
Clean room.
Restaurant and staff not geared up to coping with the number of guests in the hotel. Meals overcrowded, tables slow to be cleared and reset.

I am wondering what other people have found to be the best graphing libraries/plug-ins/gems etc for a rails app.
When I say best, I guess I mean ease of implementation and the ability to customize the graphs.
I have previously used openflashchart2 and loved the overall look/effects it has, although customizing everything as required was sometimes a pain. Do you have an experience or suggestions for pointing me in a better direction? Many Thanks.

If you've been feeling stressed out, or if you're simply overdue for a vacation, one destination you should consider visiting are the islands of St. Vincent and the Grenadines. This particular set of islands is located just north of Trinidad in the beautiful Caribbean Sea. One especially unique aspect about these islands is that its southernmost islands, the Grenadines, are actually shared with the neighboring island nation of Grenada. If you are looking for a truly unique destination where you can find the best prices on St. Vincent and the Grenadines hotels, this may be a great vacation spot for you.
There are many hotels in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. When planning any trip, however, it is a good idea to plan accordingly, so you can visit during a great time of the year when the tourist season is not quite yet in full swing. You can find more cheap hotel deals in St. Vincent and the Grenadines during the months of May through November. However, there is really no bad time to visit this beautiful island nation where the climate is tropical and temperatures are balmy year round.
Travelers never have trouble running out of things to do in St. Vincent and the Grenadines because the islands have so much to offer. For those who plan on visiting during the first couple of weeks of July, taking the time to visit the Vincy Mas Carnival is an absolute must. Here, travelers can get a great taste of the local culture and can also partake in plenty of fun dancing, listening to live music, and sipping on local drink specials. During the Carnival time especially, there are some wonderful local St. Vincent and the Grenadines hotel deals that offer rooms at special discount rates, so you may want to consider making reservations to stay for the entire event.
Those who have a love for nature will also enjoy the many parks and nature sites the islands have to offer. Specifically, the islands are known for their beautiful botanical gardens and amazing views of the water from atop of the popular Fort Duvernette. For those who are up for a real challenge, La Soufriere Volcano offers a breathtaking view from the top, but it is not an easy climb.
There is so much to see and do here that you may want to stay for a couple of weeks in order to enjoy it all. Fortunately, you can locate and book rooms cheaply thanks to the many St. Vincent and the Grenadines hotel packages that are available. Once you come across a great cheap St. Vincent and the Grenadines hotel deal, just be sure to make reservations before it is too late!

Hoi An on Vietnam's central coast is a town that time forgot, writes John Rowell.
We're halfway over Hoi An's famous covered Chua Cau bridge before we realise that we are treading carefully. Legend has it that an underground dragon stretching from India to Japan caused earthquakes by lashing out when in a really bad mood.
The Japanese solved the problem in the 16th century. Easy- kill the dragon by building a bridge in Hoi An, thereby stabbing it in the heart. "It's all right," our friend Huy smiles, "it's been dead for a long time." We still tread carefully just in case.
Even though the red paint on the entrances is faded to a dusty pink, the timber structure is beautiful under the roof's elegant ceramic tiles, and a small shrine on the far side invites incense offerings to appease the monster lurking below.
The bridge is just one of the many delights in this ancient seaport town, a registered UNESCO World Heritage Site because of its great historic value.
Hoi An is locked in a time warp, and parts are much the same as they were well over a century ago when it was one of South-East Asia's most thriving international ports. The Chinese were the first to settle here, but Hoi An absorbed communities from Japan, Holland and Portugal in its heyday.
It is so compact that you can explore it easily. As we stroll around the town centre the first thing that stands out is the variation in building design, popularly known as the "Hoi An style".
European buildings jostle Chinese temples and stone blends in with aged timber. In Phan Boi Chau Street elegant colonnaded architecture with shuttered windows takes us straight back to Colonial France.
The Chinese temples- called Assembly Halls in this socialist republic- are vibrant with their red and gold ornamentation, flowers and large hanging incense spirals with fragrant smoke drifting upwards to heaven.
But Hoi An is also a bustling market centre with handicrafts like the famous silk lanterns that glow like gems when lit, good wood-carving and the inevitable fake antiques.
Tailoring is famous here, and in shops along Nguyen Thai Hoc Street we see small children darting around small tables fitted with sewing machines while clothing proprietors take time off from their noodle lunches in a bid for custom.
You need to check quality in the finished product and bargaining is essential. We are told that both Yaly Couture in Nguyen Thai Hoc Street and Mrs Thuy around the corner in Le Loi Street are good bets.
As a contrast to haute couture, experiencing Hoi An's Central Market is a must. We grumble a bit one morning at Huy's insistence at a dawn start but are bowled over- almost literally- at the frantic activity of the market. Early mornings are given over entirely to fish and the pace is hectic as boats moor at the dock to disgorge their catches.
Savvy vendors and housewives elbow each other out of the way to get the freshest buys and laden trolleys flash by to stock the stalls waiting inside the covered market.
A fishing industry has always been part of this town on the Thu Bon River, which once attracted large merchantmen centuries ago as a major port, but the river silted up over time and the trade shifted to nearby Da Nang while Hoi An became a backwater.
When we go back later in the day, the market has undergone a personality change and now is groaning under the weight of tonnes of fruit and vegetables- the fish have completely disappeared.
Later that night we relax on the riverside in Bach Dang Street, taking in the lights reflected on the river's surface. We are in Pha Caffe 99, named after its street number. "Seafood is Hoi An's specialty," Huy advises. "You must try it." We do, and it is delicious.
In the culinary stakes, Hoi An has its own distinct character. One family alone holds the recipes to two delicacies- White Rose, a delicate shrimp and pork dumpling shaped exactly like a rose and Fried Wonton, a flat triangular wonton served with a salsa- both equally delectable.
We know if we can tear ourselves away from the magnetic attraction of the town there are other places to experience. Only a few kilometres away Hoi An's lovely Cua Dai Beach beckons with clear water, while 60 kilometres west lies My Son, site of the ancient Cham empire.
There is almost nothing to mar this quaint time capsule. Increasing tourist numbers are putting a strain on local infrastructure, but town authorities are contending with other, unwanted visitors- termites which are attacking old timber already softened by time and periodic flooding. We hope the authorities win.

I am writing sort of instant messanger application in C#, that works on sockets. I managed all socket problems and it works like an IRC now. However, i want to implement private message system. We have 2 forms - one is main, second one is a prototype of like private msg. window should look like. And here is my problem:
string priv_windows, who, msg;
public void createform(string who, string msg)
Form2 frm = new Form2();
frm.Text = who;
frm.label1.Text = msg;
priv_windows += who += " ";
createform("1st instance", "some text");
createform("2nd instance", "other text");
This works just fine for creating new instances of form, however i can't find a way to communicate with these child forms, after creating them. I mean, how can i for example change text on first form instance ? Is there an easy way, to set an index or something to a specific form instance ? Please, describe shortly how to use it later.

DECATUR, Ga. (AP) - A judge has halted a criminal case against a
woman accused of screaming at a woman passenger on an Atlanta
commuter train, an event seen more than 600,000 times on YouTube.
DeKalb County State Court Judge Barbara Mobley said Tuesday she
would place the case against 26-year-old Nifiza Ziyad on a "dead
docket" and refer her to a pretrial diversion program for the
mentally ill.
DeKalb Solicitor General Robert James said he might appeal
Mobleys decision, which came after Ziyad read a poem about her
struggles with bipolar disorder.
Ziyad was captured on video March 10 in a loud and obscene
tirade, in which she described herself as a rapper, sang, jumped about and menaced a 65-year-old woman.

Amyris is developing cost-effective and sustainably produced natural oils and aroma chemicals commonly used in the Flavors and Fragrances (F&F) market.
Many of the natural ingredients used in F&F are expensive because there is limited supply and the synthetic alternatives require complex chemical conversions.
Utilizing our biotechnology platform and industrial fermentation processes, we convert plant sugars into cost-effective, sustainable F&F ingredients. By sourcing multiple sugar feedstocks we decouple our production process from the price and supply volatility of natural oils and petroleum, allowing us to produce ingredients reliably and at scale.
We are focused on delivering value in three key areas of the F&F industry:
- Providing an alternative, reliable, and cost-effective supply of well-known and highly sought-after ingredients which suffer from pricing, availability or sustainability concerns;
- Creating new "building blocks" from which novel and cost-effective ingredients can be developed; and,
- Developing new and unique ingredients for our partners to be used directly in fragrance and flavor compounds.
Amyris is currently working with Firmenich, IFF and Givaudan, some of the world's largest F&F groups, to bring multiple products to market resulting in creative new aromas and tastes for the consumer to enjoy.

An escaped inmate from Peterson Air Force Base was captured in western El Paso County Friday afternoon.
According to Peterson, Senior Airman Herbert Mullens III, 23, was found near the Teller County line at 12:50 p.m. They found him after Teller County Dispatchers received reports from people who spotted him near Rampart Range Road and Loy Creek Road.
Mullens slipped away while en route to the Teller County Jail after attending a pretrial confinement hearing on Peterson Air Force Base. Mullens escaped custody during a bathroom break in Woodland Park at the McDonalds. Police received a tip that Mullens had been seen at the town Walmart, but a a search of the store and review of surveillance video were futile.
At the time of his escape, Mullens was with two members of the 21st Space Wing, who were responsible for transporting him back to jail.
He was discovered off Loy Creek Road, near Rampart Road, riding on a 4-wheel ATV. It is unknown if that ATV was stolen.
The people who recognized him said he was going door-to-door asking for someone to help him rent a car, and claimed he became lost looking for his brother's house.
He is once again in military custody.
Mullens was being held in pretrial confinement since April 5 due to pending charges of driving while intoxicated, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Most of the news reports about skin cancer will warn people to keep a close watch on moles for changes. But did you know that there are actually many types of skin cancer that don't present as moles at all? Skin cancers can also look like a red spot, a blemish, a bump, or a small patch of crusty, dry skin, for example.
The most important warning sign for cancer actually has nothing to do with moles; it has to do with healing. If you have anything unusual appear on your skin that doesn't seem to heal, having it inspected by a dermatologist is highly recommended.
Below are descriptions of some common types of skin cancer, what to look for to catch them early, and treatment options:
1. Actinic Keratosis—
Technically, these rough, flesh-colored, pink or red bumps are considered a form of pre-cancer, and are most common on the face and ears, or any other place that receives a lot of sun exposure. The small, crusty lesions can feel itchy or hurt when touched, and even though they don't always turn into cancer, most doctors will choose to remove them.
Cryosurgery is the fastest, least painful and most common form of removal, using a highly focused spray of liquid nitrogen or liquid carbon dioxide to freeze off the offending tissue.
For some, cryosurgery spots will form immediately into small scabs that heal within 1-2 weeks, and others may develop a blister first (that will soon scab over and heal).
2. Basal Cell Carcinoma—
Formed from the basal (bottom) layer of the epidermis, basal cell carcinoma is the most common type of skin cancer, and fortunately, rarely spreads to other parts of the body. It can cause damage to surrounding areas, however, making it important to remove it as early as possible. This type of skin cancer doesn't grow inside of existing moles like melanoma, and will instead look like a patch of dry, red, scaly or crusty skin. Basal cell carcinoma may also present as a shiny bump or flesh-colored mole with light pigment.
Because of the varied ways this type of cancer can look, it's important to remember that if anything forms on the skin and doesn't heal, have it checked out.
When caught early, basal cell carcinomas will be confirmed through biopsy, and may be removed via cryosurgery during a quick office visit. If they are larger or deeper, they may need to be excised from the skin until all cancerous layers are eliminated.
3. Squamous Cell Carcinoma—
This type of cancer will often be larger than basal cell carcinoma, darker in color, have a bump under the skin, or domed, wart-like appearance. The edges of a squamous cell carcinoma will be irregular and may ulcerate to bleed or form a crust.
Because they arise from the top layer of cells, these skin cancers are often noticed more quickly than others, which is good because they can spread to organs if untreated.
Squamous cell carcinoma is generally cut out and stitched up in-office like larger basal cell carcinomas, and some doctors will use desiccation during surgery, applying an electric current to kill cancer cells and lessen bleeding.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Construction of the $803 million Interstate
10 bridges that span Lake Pontchartrain in eastern New Orleans was
called off after a concrete beam fell early Thursday morning, dumping 10 men into the
water and killing one of them.
Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development Secretary Gordon Nelson says that work would be stopped until his department receives a safety plan from Boh Brothers, the contractor for the project.
Boh Brothers on Friday said it is working with various regulatory agencies to determine what caused the accident.
The company says its initial assessment indicates that proper safety
procedures were followed.
The company also identified the man killed as 44-year-old Eric
T. Blackman, the foreman of the crew and an 11-year employee from
Selma, Alabama.

Are there more people having the same problem? Is this a known bug?

We have a bi-lingual setup using wordpress network (multisite), not using wpml plugin. The event calendar plugin works great on the english site. It works great on the french site for the default view (fr/events/) and for viewing a single event.
However, when we try to get to fr/events/upcoming/ or fr/events/month we get a "page not found" error.
Any ideas how we might fix that?

Am i missing something ? it always seems to me that the shortcode is the hardest thing to find why is that ? why is it not emblazoned on the first line
Am i missing something ? it always seems to me that the shortcode is the hardest thing to find why is that ? why is it not emblazoned on the first line
Hi Gnfb,
Sorry for the delay in reply.
I'm not sure I follow you issue here. The shortcode explaination is well documented in the settings page in your admin. Is that what your looking for?
Hi Gnfb,
Can I assume that your have found the documentation for the shortcodes?
all good I was wondering whether there should be a scale like Pro Plugins
Expert amateur etc Ones for people that have three degrees in computer science and then one for nongs like me LOL
What I wanted to be able to do
was to be able to place a rss feed on each page
I have about 200 posts so it needs to be able to be placed automatically
etc etc
Ah, I see, I see. What you need is the shortcode to be added to the posts template. That way every posts page will have the RSS feed without having to add it to each post.
Do you not have a developer working along side you to implement things like this?
LOL Thats why I am using wordpress as long as one sticks to the simple plugins etc as soon as one crosses the CSS and HTML 5 stuff etc I dont bother with it If it requires more than a meccano effort. The great thing is one can usually find a plugin that works.
I found a plugin called wp-insert that and header footer both allow dropping code in the pages and posts wether they would work I dont know
I try and ster clear of the templates and back end as thats a sure fire way to screw things up if you dont know what you are doing
Fair enough. Looks as though you have done quite well with a theme and simple plugins.
Are you using Widgets on the site? There is a Widget available for RSSKingPro is that helps?

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Oct 01st, 2000
Running Time: 86
Director: Ray Anderson
Company: Coast to Coast 2000
Cast: Karl Ben, Brigitte, Alexandra (I), Csoky, Gina (I), Janet Blond, Kid
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: All-Sex
High production values and a cast of 10's make for some spicy eye candy. Freely recommend to adventurous couples as well as any other target audience that appreciates the three B's: brawn, beauty and brazen passion.
The cast of Euro-babes with gorgeous natural bodies and buffed out Euro-dudes with big dicks should make Euro Flesh a real crowd pleaser. There's not a loser, nor a tan line, in the bunch. Five scenes, four of which are couple scenes, could cause one to pigeon-hole this as a couple tape, were it not for the sizzling three-way subtitled Pool Party. In that scene, a ravishing brunette takes on two enormous cocks, fucking and sucking outdoors, until the penultimate act which is a ripping d.p. It should add just enough of a taboo lure for couples contemplating the wild side. Several anal scenes and lots of gooey facials also keep the tape from being too clean.

I have a project that I am wondering about using either XSLT or the .NET Framework 2.0 to transform an XML document into a table and then bind it. I know that I can bind XML in ways, but I am in a bind on this one and am more familiar with Framework coding in C# rather than XSLT.
I have run into a problem trying to get a URL into the xslt template using something with the href being formed by part URL and part <xsl:value-of select="something" />. It fails because I am not very good with it yet. Anyone with help or ideas, please feel free to suggest. I am going to go about it using .NET in C# and will entertain any XSLT help that anyone wants to provide.
I have been to www.topxml.com and www.xmlforasp.net and found some things that are basic, but nothing about how to use XSLT to put html elements together.
More to come as I finish this project.

Kidder Williams to Sell Select Harvests Brands
Almond grower-processor Select Harvests has appointed Kidder Williams to sell its non-core brands SunSol, Soland and Nu-Vit, the company said Monday.
All three brands sell mueslis, packaged nuts, fruits, grains, seeds, snacks and cooking ingredients. Both SunSol and Nu-Vit are sold into major and independent supermarkets in Australia, Asia and the United Arab Emirates while Soland is sold into health food stores and pharmacy chains.
Select Harvests Chairman Michael Iwaniw said the company is actively pursuing opportunities to expand its almond business where it makes financial sense to do so, with the help of Kidder Williams.
"The Company conducted a detailed review of the Food Division, and as a result has decided to focus on its core retail and ingredient almond products and divest its non-almond focused food brands," Mr. Iwaniw said.
Select Harvests manages 60% of Australia's almond orchards and will become a focused almond producer, orchard manager, almond marketer and nut processor post the sale of its non-core brands.
"This will significantly enhance the company's ability to leverage the favourable supply-demand dynamics underpinning the growing demand for almonds in exports markets," Mr. Iwaniw said.
Select Harvests' Food Division delivered earnings of 3.5 million Australian dollars (US$3.7 million) in the first half of fiscal 2011. This included a strong contribution from its Lucky Nuts brand, which the company is retaining.

I am trying to produce a drawing of a 3D sphere within a
canvas which I would like to render quickly: My target is real-time performance for a small (300px square) canvas on iPad.
Most of the demos out there for HTML5 rendering of any complexity uses WebGL (with the likes of three.js) which is wonderful, but sees limited (none, actually, at the moment, but Apple technically could enable it) support on iOS.
canvas, however, works great.
So I'm taking a harder look at building some rudimentary rendering functionality with
canvas since CSS3 gives me HW Transform and
canvas can be used for rudimentary texturing. I can fake lighting by drawing to a canvas! Quite a step back, since this isn't even full HW T&L (DX7!...) but I remain convinced that it's possible to build things that are still very cool. The trick is to minimize the amount of geometry as much as possible (among other things).
Back to the topic at hand. My actual question is quite specific. If the sphere I want to draw is far enough away from the camera I can get away with an orthographic projection of it. It seems like in this case I can construct a wireframe-sphere using arc paths and the rotation and scaling transforms available to
canvas. This doesn't allow me to texture the sphere in any way, but should produce nice smooth curves and will look nice.
What if I want to throw perspective projection into the picture? What sort of curves are produced from this type of transformation? Is there any possibility of being able to draw a close enough approximating curve using bezier or arc paths?
I know that a perspective projection of a sphere is an ellipse. Ellipses can be produced readily by scaling circles. It may just be as simple as figuring out the equation for that ellipse given the projection parameters. Can somebody help me out with this?
One option that's always open to me is to just forget the arcs and draw my wireframe with lines (which
canvas will conveniently antialias for me) the way we have always traditionally done this, and call it a day. There's no way to avoid this either, if I wanted to texture my sphere for example.

PLV50 Gets Roots
Pleasantville's 50th anniversary continues with a lecture on Westchester County by urban historian Kenneth T. Jackson and the planting of a brand new Copper Beech tree.
Kenneth T. Jackson presents
The Ideal Suburb: The Evolution of Westchester County in the 20th Century
Monday, April 7, 6:00 p.m.–8:00 p.m.
Kessel Student Center, Gottesman Room
In honor of Pace Pleasantville's 50th anniversary, urban historian and Columbia University Professor Kenneth T. Jackson will join Pace University President Stephen J. Friedman and Dean of the Dyson College of Arts and Sciences Nira Herrmann, PhD, for an informative and memorable lecture on the growth and history of Westchester County and Pace's role in that history. Seating is limited. RSVP by April 3 to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Copper Beech Tree Planting
Wednesday, April 30, 12:15 p.m.–12:45 p.m.
Marks Hall
In 1962, Wayne Marks '28, vice chairman of the General Foods Corporation, and his wife Helen, donated their sprawling home on Bedford Road in Pleasantville to Pace. This event was the impetus behind Pace's expansion to Westchester. However, there was one string attached to the gift; an informal understanding that the gigantic copper beech tree near the house would remain undisturbed. Though it remained undisturbed and thriving for the better part of 50 years, the tree had ceased to thrive and had to be removed this past fall. On April 30, we honor the promise we made to the Marks family and recommit Pace to another 50 years in Pleasantville with the planting of a brand new Copper Beech tree.
Senior VP and COO for the Westchester Campus Bill McGrath will lead the ceremony.
And don't forget: If you are snapping photos and sharing them on Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook, be sure to use #PLV50!
Pace is pleased to announce the appointment of Jonathan H. Hill, DPS, as Dean of the Seidenberg School of Computer Science and Information Systems, effective July 1, 2016.

Few journalists have caused the resignation of a member of the president's cabinet; fewer still have done so by blogging. Josh Marshall and colleagues at the Talking Points Memo/TPM Muckraker blogs won this year's Polk Award in legal reporting for their relentless coverage of the politically motivated firings of U.S. attorneys by the White House. The coverage by TPM and others led to Congressional hearings and the ultimate resignation of attorney general Alberto Gonzales.

walking track between Delamore Drive and Owhanake Bay, near

"It's a reasonably used track but it's not the busiest on the
Mr Knight said the woman managed to escape and get help from
builders working nearby.
They called police who allege they found the accused at the
other end of the track shortly afterwards.
Mr Knight said the woman had planned to stay on Waiheke for a
night or two but had gone back to the mainland following the
"She's pretty shaken up, obviously."
Cane Norton Kelland, 17, appeared in Auckland District Court
this afternoon charged with injuring with intent and sexually
Public defender Jo Scott said Kelland had "low intellectual
ability" and had been living with a foster mother on Waiheke
Judge Eddie Paul said there was a "concerning" email to the
court from Child, Youth and Family, which recommended Kelland
not be kept in custody with adult prisoners.
Judge Paul made the recommendation that Kelland be kept
separate from adult prisoners and also be considered for the
special needs custody unit.
Ms Scott made no application for bail but said the matter may
be brought before the court if an appropriate bail address
could be found.
Kelland was remanded in custody until next month.

Taco Bell is showing the world what it truly means to "Live Mas" as it unveils a 60-second online teaser video in anticipation of its 60-second brand Super Bowl commercial.
The "Live Mas" brand commercial is titled "Viva Young" and is scheduled to debut during the third quarter of the game broadcasted February 3, 2013, on the CBS Television Network.
In the spot, main character, 87-year-old Bernie Goldblatt, along with his friends, will take viewers on an unforgettable night depicting that anyone at any age can "Live Mas."
The commercial will be set to the music of Taco Bell Feed the Beat artist and six-time Grammy Award nominee fun.'s "We Are Young," which will be sung in Spanish.
"Our hope is that our consumers will see themselves in this ad. They tell us that Taco Bell is about memories and experiences, and things they like to share with their friends," says Brian Niccol, chief marketing & innovation officer, Taco Bell Corp. "We believe that advertising on the world biggest stage, the Super Bowl, was the ideal way to share these experiences with our fans, while also providing further context into the mindset of Taco Bell and what it means to 'Live Mas.'"
Taco Bell fans and consumers can also find out more about "Goldblatt" through the online teaser that is being released on the brand's YouTube channel, entitled "Grandpa Goes Wild." The teaser shows Goldblatt sneaking his suped-up motorized scooter into a football stadium to let loose, do some trick—like making "donuts" on the field, knocking over water coolers and yardage signs, and a tackling dummy, all while escaping from security.
The teaser gives consumers a deeper look into the "Live Mas" personality of the Taco Bell's Super Bowl spot's main character.
The Super Bowl XLVII spot and campaign's online teaser are being created by Deutsch LA, which has recently joined Taco Bell's agency roster, along with lead agency Draftfcb. The last time Taco Bell advertised during the Super Bowl was during the 2010 game and the ad supported the brand's $5 Big Box.

I wish they spent as much time on there flavor and quality as they do the commercials. all that hype on the new chef and there food is still the worst quality
customer replied on Permalink
Forget the chef-retrain their managers to manage the good workers they have-maybe they would have more business....
Customer replied on Permalink
I LOVE their food. I think a lot of people mistakenly think the food is poor quality simply because of the low price. The ingredients are actually very fresh and a LOT healthier than the burger joints.
