Ever since Dexter kicked off its fourth season, Lundy, Deb, Dexter, as well as the viewers, have been led to believe that Trinity follows a certain murder pattern of three: A young woman in a bathtub bleeding to death, followed by a mother of two falling to death, and a man bludgeoned to death. But it looks like Lundy overlooked some details about Trinity's case as Dexter makes a startling revelation about Trinity's real killing cycle.
I've decided to refer to Trinity as "Arthur Mitchell" since that's his real name and "Trinity" doesn't seem appropriate anymore considering our most recent discovery. It turns out Arthur has been killing in groups of four and the cycle always starts with the abduction of a 10-year-old boy who represents young Arthur.
It's hard to believe that a meticulous and clever cop like Lundy missed out on this massive detail but evidently, Arthur's 10-year-old boy victims were abducted and never seen again, and kidnappings were never ruled as homicides.
Thanks to Jonah, Dexter locates Arthur's latest 10-year-old victim, Scott, in a dingy basement in one of the vacant real estate listings in Arthur's search history on his computer. Dexter knocks out Arthur, who is about to preserve the boy's innocence by cementing him into the house he built, and manages to save the boy, though is unable to stop Trinity from escaping. I can only assume that Arthur will stop at nothing to get back at Dexter after this.
While we've stumbled on something huge about Arthur's killing pattern, we also learned about his relationship with daughter Christine, who killed Lundy and shot Deb for fear that Lundy was getting too close in uncovering her father's case. Acting on her suspicion about Christine, Deb sets up a meeting with the persistent reporter for an interview for Deb's story but Deb turns the interview on Christine by asking how she got to the murder scene only 20 minutes after it was reported if she lives an hour away. Batista and Deb can't figure out how she's related to Trinity but both agree that she's involved in the shooting. Thanks to Quinn, who reluctantly hands over Christine's toothbrush for some DNA testing, Miami Metro leans that Christine is indeed related to Trinity. And thus, Christine is taken away in cuffs.
"Lost Boys" was a good follow-up to last week's revelations. However, the scenes for the next two episodes of Dexter look even more exciting: Deb will learn more about another one of Harry's informant (Could this be Dexter's mother?) while Arthur will do whatever it takes to get his hands on Dexter.

Adele's Boyfriend Just Outdid Every Romantic Anniversary Gesture Ever
The singer's partner Simon Konecki surprised his beloved with the sweetest possible gesture during her Nashville concert...
The singer has revealed that she is going straight back into the studio following her success at last Sunday's Grammy Awards.
The Rolling in the Deep star was rumoured to be intending to take an extended break from her stellar music career to focus on her personal life.
But Adele herself joked that her holiday was more likely to be just a few days long.
"I've a few days off now, and then it's the Brit Awards here at home and then I'm straight into the studio. BOYYAHH! 5 years? More like 5 days!" she wrote on her official website.
The speculation stemmed from an interview with Vogue magazine that quoted the star as saying she was considering taking a sabbatical.
"I am f**king off for four or five years. If I am constantly working, my relationships fail. So at least now I can have enough time to write a happy record. And be in love and be happy," Adele told the fashion publication.
However, judging by her reaction to her incredible success at the Grammy Awards, Adele doesn't appear ready to take a break just yet.
The soul sensation described the amazing night she had at the awards ceremony and is over the moon with her success.
"Oh goodness!! I'm absolutely flabbergasted! In between laughing my head off, welling up, needing to sit down and trying to maintain an open fire (which is pretty much impossible huh!?) I keep having flashbacks to Sunday night. The most incredible night of my life," she wrote.
"Thank you to you all, I am so overwhelmed, it's the strangest feeling. I have constant butterflies and goosebumps, it's wearing me out but I LOVE it! I've been sleeping a lot but the minute I wake up I burst out laughing and it starts all over again."
The singer's partner Simon Konecki surprised his beloved with the sweetest possible gesture during her Nashville concert...
The 'Hello' singer is being accused of sending a poor hotel staffer on a trip of a lifetime. Here's the crazy story...
She's been given the spice of approval!

City of Milwaukee Announces 2015 Project Clean & Green Program Dates
Citywide clean-up effort runs April 13-June 1, 2015
The City of Milwaukee Department of Public Works' annual Project Clean & Green program will run from April 13 through June 1, 2015.
Project Clean & Green (PCG) is a citywide program designed to foster neighborhood pride through coordinated pick up of excess household debris, street and alley sweeping, nuisance inspections, graffiti removal, and other neighborhood beautification activities sponsored by community organizations.
How it works: The City of Milwaukee has been segmented into seven (7) PCG collection zones. Residents within an assigned zone can place their unwanted furniture, mattresses, household items, up to two (2) cubic yards of tree trimmings, and up to five (5) tires at their regular garbage collection point – either the curb or alley line – on their regular garbage collection day during their designated Project Clean & Green week. DPW crews will pick up excess, unwanted household items at no charge to the resident. Normally, residents would be charged $50 to $150 for all bulky item pickup requests larger than one (1) cubic yard (about the size of an easy chair), and will be charged those amounts after their program week passes.
Residents can go to http://mpw.milwaukee.gov/services/garbage_day to find out when PCG is scheduled for a specific block/street/neighborhood.
What DPW will not pick up during Project Clean & Green:
- Appliances
- TVs and other electronics, such as computers, printers, scanners, tablets, etc.
- Construction debris
- Paint and paint thinner, motor oil, and other hazardous waste
- Grass, yard waste, and more than two (2) cubic yards of tree trimmings.
These items can be taken to either of two City Self-Help Center sites for proper disposal. For a list of accepted items, go to www.city.milwaukee.gov/mpw/divisions/operations/environmental/sanitation/SelfHelpCenters.htm. This site also includes Self Help Center location and hours of operation information,
If a neighborhood organization wants to schedule a group clean-up, please contact Keep Greater Milwaukee Beautiful at www.kgmb.org or 414.272.5462 for clean-up bags, gloves, or to borrow a limited number of clean-up tools, such as rakes, shovels, and brooms.
For more information on Project Clean and Green, go to www.city.milwaukee.gov/mpw or call 286-CITY (2489).

It's Thursday, so that means BSDNow 153, with a title inspired by the lead news item, "my int is too big". (No, not spoon, int.) No interview this week, but lots of links.
For VPS users, an ISO
Thanks to a reminder from IRC user 'cgag', I've put an uncompressed ISO image of DragonFly 4.6 up on the main site. It's linked on the download page, and should be available within 24 hours on the mirrors. If you are buying service from a virtual host provider, and can install an operating system directly from a downloadable URL, this is for you.
DragonFlyBSD 4.6 released
DragonFly 4.6 is officially released! Download from your nearest mirror, or update your source files and build – my users@ email describes the steps.
DragonFly 4.6 release candidate 2 available
DragonFly 4.6 release candidate 2 has been tagged. You can pull it directly from the master site in img or iso form (check your local mirror instead if possible), or shift to the new tag.
"Where is RC1?" you may ask? I tagged the first release candidate some days ago, and this bug was immediately found right after. It was easier to go right to RC2 once a fix was found.
This candidate will probably lead directly to a release version, so if you want to run the release version exactly, wait a few days.
PIC32 microcontrollers and BSD
The NYCBUG meeting happening tomorrow night, June 6th, is on the two different BSDs (RetroBSD and LiteBSD) that can run on the super-tiny PIC32 microcontroller. Go if you are near.
Want to run a go builder for DragonFly?
The system I had for running a go builder died. I am running out of extra hardware. Is there someone who is using Go and DragonFly and is willing to commit to running a semi-dedicated builder?
Kisumu digital library and DragonFly
There's a new digital library in Kisumu, Kenya – and it's running DragonFly for file storage.
Don't forget tuning(7)
If you didn't already know about it, you will find this useful: DragonFly has a tuning(7) man page, about getting the best performance from your system. Matthew Dillon recently updated the man page with some tips about SSD setup.
What's that @@?
Tomohiro Kasumi wrote a lengthy explanation of what "@@" means, in the context of the Hammer file system. It acts as a sort of signifier for each actual Hammer pseudo-file-system, since it's possible to null-mount these anywhere in DragonFly, under all sorts of names. Don't trust my summary, though – read his.
BSDNow 143: One small step for DRM, one giant leap for BSD
BSDNow 143 has the usual roundup of news, plus a conversation with Matthew Macy about graphics improvements in FreeBSD.
We need DragonFly people interviewed, since DragonFly graphics improvements have been leading the pack, so to speak. I'm linking to the Jupiter Broadcasting site again since I don't see this episode up on the BSDNow site yet.
How fast is DragonFly?
DragonFly and xorg/xwayland
karu.pruun managed to get xwayland working on DragonFly, and also took notes while doing it. That means you can try it out, too.
BSDNow 142: Diving for BSD Perls
BSDNow 142 is out. You might think the title is about Perl, the language, on BSD, but it's because there's an interview with FreeBSD developer Alfred Perlstein. I'm sure he gets that a lot. Among the other news on the episode is a note about ordering BSDNow shirts: do it today because it's the last day they will be available! Also, you can order now and pick it up at BSDCan if you're going to be there.
(I'm linking to the jupiterbroadcasting site because the bsdnow.tv site isn't updated as of this writing.)
BSD Magazine for May 2016 out
The May issue of BSD Magazine is available now. There's articles on ZFS, OpenBSD's arc4random, an interview of Fernando Rodríguez of KeepCoding, and more. It's a free PDF download if you didn't know.
TeX, clisp, and DragonFly
DragonFly versions of TeX have been available for some time now. However, Nelson Beebe, who is part of the TeX project, is having trouble building some related binaries – asymptote and clisp. He could use help from anyone interested, to match up with this summer's release of TeX 2016.
Acceleration for Skylake users
If you are on the Skylake series of processors, and also running xorg on DragonFly, pick 'uxa' video acceleration. Andrew Slaughter found this made a significant different in visual quality.
Benchmarks and tips nginx on DragonFly
Sepherosa Ziehau posted an extended description of his work with nginx on DragonFly, and the kind of performance he was able to wring out of it. Of special note: he posts all his sysctl changes, which might be useful to anyone else in high-traffic environments, and notes that he was able to saturate a 10Gb link with one DragonFly machine.
Also: a followup comparing interrupt vs. polling performance.
autofs for DragonFly, a preview
Tomohiro Kusumi has been working on a port of autofs to DragonFly. If you aren't familiar with it, autofs is an automatic file system mounter, so when you access a network file system at its local mount point, autofs kicks in and makes sure the remote file system is automatically mounted. He has an initial report on his progress, and expects it to be in DragonFly master in the next month.
NYCBUG tonight: Urchin
NYCBUG is meeting tonight, and Thomas Levine will be there to talk about Urchin, a shell-based test framework. The announcement also has future meeting/speaker dates noted.
NFS tuning tips
If you're on DragonFly, or maybe even if you aren't, and you are using NFS, here's some tips on how to wring the best performance out of it.

I'm going to approach a new company about doing their payroll/accounts/some admin from home and just wanted to some advice from others who are in a similar job.
Is it a fantasy to be able to do all of these things in the evening from home or does it work well for you?
How do you make sure you are remunerated for your time? (As I'm sure you might get some things done all throughout the day and not all necessarily in the one block of time)
Did they set you up with a remote connection to their system?
Do you spend a day in the office or do it all from home?
Any other tips on how to make it viable for both employer and employee?

Feeding children with a nutritional meal is probably the most challenging aspect of parenthood. You want them to get all the vitamins and proteins that are only naturally available in green vegetables and fruits. Most children frown upon the name of 'broccoli' or 'spinach,' and finding new ideas for cooking that will appeal to the kids and encourage them to eat healthy can be an excruciating task. You can also cheer them more by giving them kid's dinner plates to fascinate them with colors.

Lincoln mastered wisdom of unsent letter after GettysburgBreaking News
tags: Civil War, Abraham Lincoln, Gettysburg, Bloomberg News
Abraham Lincoln, remembered 150 years after a "decisive" battle of the U.S. Civil War, could have excelled in modern-day Washington politics, one of the pre-eminent scholars on the American president says.
"He would be tech savvy, he would lose the beard, he would have some cosmetic surgery, he would make an asset of his height," historian Harold Holzer said in an interview for Bloomberg Television's "Political Capital with Al Hunt" airing this weekend. "He was so smart about working with the press, getting the press to work in his behalf, giving out exclusives, and he would have mastered any medium."
As one measure of Lincoln's political prowess, Holzer recited an often-told tale of Lincoln thinking twice before dispatching a letter upbraiding his general who defeated the enemy at the Battle of Gettysburg, a turning point for the Northern victory in the Civil War. It was a precursor to the dilemma of hitting the send button on a regrettable e-mail....

United States Patent 3,277,389 AFC FOR PLURAL OSCILLATORS Douglas A. Venn, Suitland, Md., assignor to the United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy Filed Dec. 30, 1959, Ser. No. 863,052 Claims. (Cl. 331-2) The invention described herein may be manufactured and used by or for the Government of the United States of America for governmental purposes without the payment of any royalties thereon or therefor.
This invention relates in general to a frequency control system and in particular to one for sequentially disciplining a plurality of oscillators with a single precision source.
Very often it is desired to control several electronic and electrical devices with a single precision source. One arrangement in the prior art accomplishes this end by providing a decade frequency generating system wherein all frequencies for the individual components are derived by separate decade genenators which are driven by the precision source. Although this arrangement is complex and expensive, its major disadvantage lies in the dependence of all the equipment on a single source.
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a system wherein a single frequency synthesizer controls all the required frequencies of a number of equipments in an orderly and repetitive manner.
Another object of the present invention is to provide an arrangement which allows the individual equipments to continue functioning even when the frequency standard or disciplining system fails.
These and other objects are accomplished by employing sepanate oscillators in each electronic or electrical component and adjusting the frequency and/or phase drift in each oscillator automatically and sequentially by means of a single standard source.
In one embodiment of the invention, a frequency information unit, operated by a timer, controls a frequency synthesizer to sequentially provide a plurality of standard frequencies that are applied to a comparator. Simultaneously, the timer controls an arrangement that sequentially applies the output ofeach of a plurality of oscillators so thatthe output of each oscillator is compared with a standard frequency and a correction signal, if necessary, is applied to the oscillator.
The more detailed nature of the invention will be readily apparent from a consideration of the following specification relating to the annexed drawing in which like reference numerals designate like parts throughout the figures and wherein:
FIG. 1 is a first embodiment.
FIG. 2 is one detail of the embodiment in FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 is another detail of the embodiment of FIG. 1.
FIG. 4 is a second embodiment.
Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, timer 8 controls sequence switches 9 to 11. Although many conventional types of timers and sequence switches may be used in the present embodiment, timer 8 is selected to include a motor driven, three-contact stepping switch 12. A source of DC. potential 13 is connected to the arm of the stepping switch. As will become apparent, the number of contacts in the stepping switch is determined by the number of oscillators to be controlled. Bank of oscillators 14 includes oscillators 1, 2, and 3 but it is understoodthat the bank may embrace as many oscillators as desired. Sequence switch 9 includes relays 15 to 17, one relay for each oscillator, each relay, as shown in detail in FIG. 2 in connection with relay 17, having ten pairs of contacts. Sequence switch 11 contains relays 20 to 22, each having three pairs 3,277,389 Patented Oct. 4, 1966 ice of contacts, each relay being associated with a respective one of oscillator 1 to 3. When one of the relays 20 to 22 is energized, two of the contacts of the relay connect the output of magnetic amplifier 18 in FIG. 3 to gear reduction motor 19 and the third contact connects variable resistor 23 to resistor 24. Sequence switch 10 likewise includes relays 25 to 27, each having a pair of contacts associated with a particular oscillator. Since relays 17, 22, 27, relays 16, 21, 26, and relays 15, 20, 27 form three groups of relays, each group connected to a different contact in stepping switch 12, for each position of the stepping switch all the relays associated with a respective oscillator 1, 2, or 3 are energized simultaneously. Although a separate relay in each of sequence switches 9 to 11 is shown for each oscillator 1 to 3, in practice a single relay for each oscillator having 14 pairs of contacts may be used.
The output of frequency synthesizer 29 is applied directly to comparator 30 while the outputs of oscillators 1, 2 and 3 are applied to the comparator through the contacts of relays 27, 26, 25, respectively, in sequence switch 10. An error signal, if required, is applied from the comparator to the oscillators through control unit 31 and relays 22, 21, and 20, respectively, in sequence switch 11. The error signal is proportional in magnitude to the instantaneous frequency and/or phase difference of the signals applied to comparator 30.
The output of sequence switch 9 is applied to frequency storage unit 28 which controls frequency synthesizer 29. The frequency synthesizer is disclosed in detail in copending application Serial No. 784,404, filed December 31, 1958, by Robert R. Stone, Jr., now US. Patent No. 3,119,- 078. Frequently storage unit 28 includes a plurality of banks of switches, one bank for each oscilliator 1 to 3, each bank having one switch for each of the ten vertical bars 32 in the cross-bar switch 33 in frequency synthesizer 29.
Referring to FIG. 3, the output of frequency synthesizer 29 is applied across resistor 131 which is connected to the plate of diode 132 and the cathode of diode 133 in comparator 30. Resistors 134, 135 and variable resistor 136 are connected in series and across the cathode and plate of diode 132, 133. Likewise, capacitors 137, 138 and coil 139 are connected in series across the cathode and plate of the diodes. Variable capacitor 140 is positioned across coil 139 and capacitors 142 and 143 are each connected across coil 139 to ground. Positive potential is applied through coil 146 and the center tap of coil 139 to the cathode of diode 132 and the plate of diode 133 as well as through resistor 147 to the screen grid of electron tube 148. Capacitors 150 and 151 are each located across one side of coil 146 and ground. The screen grid of electron tube 1'48 is grounded through capacitor 154, the suppressor grid is connected to the cathode which is grounded through resistor 155 and the plate is connected to capacitors 138 and 148? Capacitor 156 is positioned across resistor 155.
The output of oscillator 1 is conducted through sequence switch 11) to the control grid of electron tube 148 while the output of comparator 30 is applied through resistor 160 to the control grid of electron tube 161 in control unit 31'an'd through resistor 162 to DC. amplifier 163. The plate of electron tube 161 is connected to positive potential through resistor 165 and the cathode is grounded through variable resistor 23.
Diodes 167 and 168, connected back to back, are variable capacitance silicon diodes. Positive potential is applied through resistors 169 to the cathode of diode 167 and resistor 170 to the cathode of diode 168. The cathode of diode 167is connected to ground through capacitor 171 and the cathode of diode 168 is grounded through capacitor 172 and variable capacitor 173. The cathodes 3 of the diodes are connected to variable resistor 23 through Sequence switch 11 and resistor 24. DC. amplifier 163 Controls magnetic amplifier 18 that drives gear reduction motor 19 which is connected to and controls variable capacitor 173 through a mechanical arrangement illustrated by a dotted line. A terminal located between variable capacitor 173 and capacitor 172 is connected through capacitor 177 to the control grid of electron tube 178 which is located in one type of conventional oscillator. The plate of electron tube 178 is connected through sequence switch to the control grid of electron tube 148.
In the operation of the embodiment in FIGS. 1 to 3, oscillators 1, 2 and 3 are adjusted to provide frequencies f f and f respectively. Frequency information storage unit 28 is set so that when operated sequentially by timer 8 frequency synthesizer 29 will be operated to provide standard frequencies F F and F When the timer is in the position shown in FIG. 2, relay 17 is energized to apply potential to bank of switche 34 which controls frequency synthesizer 29 to apply standard frequency F to phase comparator 30. Simultaneously, relay 27 is operated to apply frequency to the phase comparator. If f differs in frequency and/ or phase from F an error signal is applied to the control grid of electron tube 161 in control unit 31. Variations in the output voltage of the electron tube due to variations in the magnitude of the error signal are applied through sequence switch 11 to effect a change in capacity of diodes 168, 167 electrically tuning oscillator 1. If the original unbalance voltage in the comparator is of the correct sense, and it can be made so, the oscillator frequency will be corrected in the proper direction to come into synchronization with the selected reference frequency but not necessarily into proper phase relationship for balance in the comparator. Thus, frequency lock may be accomplished immediately but with a phase displacement unbalancing the comparator and giving rise to a control voltage on the grid of electron tube 161. If the reference frequency were removed under these conditions, oscillator 1 would revert to its uncorrected previous frequency.
In order to make the change permanent, i.e., until the next change is needed, the output of comparator 30 is applied to gear reduction motor 19 through D.C. amplifier 163 and magnetic amplifier 18 to bring the outputs of oscillator 1 and frequency synthesizer 29 into the same phase relationship. The motor applies a cumulative long term correction to the oscillator mechanically adjusting the setting of variable capacitor 173 during each disciplining period.
The combination of the two servo links, electrical for instantaneous but temporary correction and mechanical for cummulative correction, provides a continuing integration of the correction to oscillator 1 even though the sampling of the error signal or disciplining period may be exceedingly short and may be limited only by the speed of operation of the servomechanism. Thus, the servo links function as an electrical ratchet which permits the removal of the error signal after a short period of its application without reversion of oscillator 1 to its previous uncorrected state. Thus the instantaneous but temporary correction which reverts when each comparison is ended may be termed regressive and the other correction which does not revert when each comparison is ended may be termed nonregressive.
In substantially the same manner as indicated in connection with oscillator 1, when timer 8 is in the second and third positions, the output of oscillators 2 and 3 are compared with standard frequencies F and F respectively, and the oscillators are adjusted, if necessary, to provide signals having these frequencies.
Referring to FIG. 4, a fixed reference frequency F obtained from frequency synthesizer 29, is applied to comparator 30 and a plurality of selected reference frequencies F F and F determined y the setting of the plurality of banks of switches in frequency information storage unit 28, are applied sequentially from the frequency synthesizer to mixer 85. The signals provided by oscillators 1, 2, 3 are sequentially applied through sequence switch 10 to mixer 85, and the output of the mixer is fed through IF amplifier 86 and multiplier 87 to comparator 30. The error signals, if any, derived from the latter, are applied through control unit 31 and sequence switch 11 to the appropriate one of oscillators 1, 2, or 3.
Considering a typical operation of the embodiment disclosed in FIG. 4, frequency synthesizer 29 applies selected reference frequency F and oscillator 1 applies frequency f to mixer obtaining a selected IF component, say 500 kc. IF amplifier 86 is centered at this frequency to provide gain and sideband suppression, and a large increase in phase sensitivity is realized by multiplying the 500 kc. signal, for example, forty times and comparing the phase of the resulting 20 me. signal With that of the, for example 20 me. output F derived from frequency synthesizer 29. A small phase or frequency change in the output of oscillator 1 with respect to the fixed reference frequency R, then produces a relatively large D.C. output voltage from comparator 30 which is used as an error signal. The error signal is applied through control unit 31 and sequence switch 11 to control oscillator 1 in the same manner as the embodiment disclosed in FIGS. 1 to 3.
Obviously many modifications and variations of the present invention are possible in the light of the above teachings. It is therefore to be understood that within the scope of the appended claims, the invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically described.
What is claimed is:

40 | San Diego, California
Seriously unserious....seriously!
He enjoys the pleasures of the senses, yet he is firmly grounded in reality.
Because he is broad-minded, adaptable and playful, as well as dependable and loyal, he can be an exciting yet stable and dedicated friend and colleague.
He seeks a partner who is moral and cooperative. Yet he or she has to have his level of energy and curiosity too.

- In general, I think it is important to follow the rules
His 11 interests
in his own words...
I'd describe myself as a trustworthy and honest fun loving individual with a great sense of humor. I'm usually making others laugh or laughing myself. Lighthearted, but sincere as well. You should know that I open doors for strangers, don't spend all Sunday watching sports, and I get up and go to bed at 5AM equally well. Just not in the same night. Quick - something random! One night I saw so many shooting stars at once, I became hopeless after running out of wishes. But I'm still positive, it was only temporary. One of my favorite things to do is a random road trip. I sincerely enjoy traveling and new places. I love to ski, but accept boarders as people, too. I appreciate good sushi and a fine microbrew, although South Beach fish tacos have a special place in my.........stomach. I'm equally at home lounging in a hole in a wall, going to a club in LA, visiting a museum, arguing politics, playing darts, getting outdoors, watching House, or purposely falling asleep on the couch because I deserve it. I maintain a healthy lifestyle, and even have a clean criminal record. I find life is more about experiences than material things. I'm here looking for someone to share those with, whether it is on a level of friendship or more. I would fit well with someone that is outgoing and adventurous, can carry on an interesting conversation about random topics, and is off the wall at times. Being yourself hopefuly involves a lot of laughter.

Book DescriptionThe reproduction of nature via computer has fascinated scientists in computer graphics and artists, ever since synthetic imaging was thought to be possible. This book illustrates and exemplifies methods for the creation of artificial plant models, and the application of these methods within areas such as simulation, virtual reality, botany, landscaping, and architecture. The models are combined to create gardens, parks, and even entire landscapes.

I am looking for someone that I can learn from, and who is willing to learn from me. I am a completely upfront and honest person and am looking for someone who values these qualities as much as I do.

Sorry for the TMI but I'm interested in talking to mothers who have had similar experiences..
My nearly 3 year old son has never had solid poo. It's always quite sloppy.. It always has been. I understand babies are usually like this, but shouldn't my boy be passing a more solid stool by now?
He isn't ill, doesn't have any trouble gaining weight and is a highly spirited (haha) and happy kid.
We don't feed him crap or takeaway etc so it's not that..
I am considering taking him to the dr, but was just interested if anyone else has a child like this and if they have taken them to the dr, what was the outcome?
Thank you in advance for any input

Keywords: House, 4 bedroom
We are a professional couple from Atlanta who decided to invest in a historic Savannah home to help in the city's preservation and also enjoy the joy of this wonderful, charming city.
The Owner purchased this house in 2000
Our family fell in love with Savannah when we began to visit the charming city in the early 90s. The transformation of the town from that time to now has been astounding. It is so invigorating to walk the streets and soak in the history and architecture. It truly is a jewel of a city.
The 1822 Row House is a large, spacious house so close to all downtown activities. We like to think that it offers a unique mixture of a beautiful, authentically historic house (1822) with tasteful, modern updates (1999 renovation).
We had a group of 10 girls stay and it was perfect! Perfect charm. It is in a great location that allows you to be in walking distance of all of downtown Savannah.
Any more than 10 people may be a little hard to sleep. The bedrooms sleep 7. There is a daybed with a trundle and a comfy couch.
Kitchen is well stocked with pans and plates.
My friends (10 total) and I stayed at this home in Savannah for a Bachelorette weekend and for almost all of us it was actually our 2nd stay in this same home. It has so much character, I love all the historical bits of it (original floors from 1800's so cool) and the amount of space you get spans over 3 floors. It was perfect for our needs. The location really is amazing, I feel like you can truly walk to everything (river, local hangouts, etc.). We would definitely stay here again and I always talk about how unique and fun it is to stay here after I return from my trips.
We booked the house for a bachelorette party of 15! We had an absolute blast!! The location to everything was the biggest plus! The kitchen and dining area were our main hangout spots. The bedrooms are great sizes and not crowded at all! The water pressure in the showers when both showers were on were our only concern(trickling). Keep in mind you are in an antique home not the ritz! The house has do much charm and history! Def would stay again!!
This house is amazing! I was hesitant to believe that it could sleep 14 people, but after arriving it was obvious that it could! The two master bedrooms have more than enough space for two air mattresses and the living room is huge.
While the house is set up differently than most because of its age, this only makes it even more fun to stay in! We loved that the house had its own personality and all of the little things that come with that. The cabinets had some fun surprises in them that made for some great photos to show people when we came back! (Nothing too crazy!)
The rooftop porch was wonderful; my only caveat being that I wish it had furniture on it. It would have been a great place to sit at night! Next time we'll probably bring some outdoor chairs to use up there because the view is wonderful.
It was a quick walk to all of the bars and restaurants on River Street and easy to find when walking back. There parking deck across from it was very affordable, and street parking was also easy to find.
By far the best place for the price and such a beautiful house that gives you an authentic Savannah experience!
I can't wait to come back again!
Other than the weather (it snowed!), our group of 8 ladies really enjoyed our stay and particularly this house. We had the top 2 floors + the studio on the main floor and had plenty of room. The house has a lot of character and we especially enjoyed gathering in the kitchen.
The location is ideal - our event was at the Westin resort on the island and we were an easy 10 minute drive from there. It was also an easy walk to River St.
Robert and Kim provided everything we needed to enjoy the house. I definitely recommend this for larger groups.
I would suggest window coverings in the main floor front room so the bed in there could be used comfortably - other than that everything was great!
As someone who has been so pleased with previous VRBO accommodations, I rely on the reviews when making my decision. I didn't pay close attention when I booked this place and wished I had noticed the dates of the reviews. Although there are 32 reviews, there are only TWO reviews for 2015, which is odd. This place was shabby and worn. Upon arrival, one of the windows in the queen size bedroom didn't have any window covering. Unfortunately the window was next to the bed and looked out to a public parking garage. This caused a big problem not only for privacy, but for security. The owner's response to our text was that he had been notified about the window but didn't have a chance to fix it. Did he add that someone would come by to install a shade or do a temporary fix? No. We had to come up with a solution. Since we didn't have duck tape to hang up a towel, we found a crib mattress and put it up in the window. Pretty tacky, but we needed something to provide privacy.
We were only there for two nights and since the window situation didn't get solved, we didn't want to waste anymore of our vacation time contacting the owner. When I wrote an email the day after getting back home, the owner said she was sorry it did not meet my standards. She's right!!
Just some of the issues we found: a poorly draining sink in one of the bathrooms and no GFI plug. (That's a safety issue.) The downstairs bathroom didn't have any towel racks--no place for wet towels. The rugs in both bathrooms were disgusting and the rug in the kitchen was in shreds. The coat hangers in the rooms were tossed in the armoires and most of them were old wire hangers that were bent out of shape. The window covering in the dining room was falling down and the window covering in the breakfast area was terribly stained. Some of the bed pillows were yellowed and stained.
Also, the lock box where the key is kept is an issue. It needs attention (perhaps WD40). Each time we used it, we found it very difficult to slide the side piece open to get the key. We had to stand in the rain while struggling to open this lock box.
This place has so much potential! It is in a great location and also has the added convenience of a public parking garage across the street. It is a very spacious house and I'm sure previous renters like the Girl Scout troop found this place a lot of fun! But it needs a lot of TLC and isn't up to the quality of the majority of VRBO rentals.

SINGAPORE, Jan. 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Mounting volumes of medical and healthcare data have spurred healthcare providers in Asia-Pacific to adopt business analytics applications. To manage this data, healthcare providers are looking to partner with local and global software vendors. As a result, the emerging business analytics market in the region is poised for steady growth.
New analysis from Frost & Sullivan (http://www.healthcare.frost.com), APAC Business Analytics for Healthcare Providers—Market Opportunity Assessment, finds that the market earned revenues of over $315.9 million in 2011 and estimates this to reach $654.2 million in 2018. The healthcare industry is becoming increasingly service-oriented, with the balance of power shifting from medical professionals in favor of consumers.
To identify sustainable competitive advantages and derive insights from enterprise resource planning tools, customer satisfaction surveys, and clinical information systems, service providers are turning to business analytics.
"In addition, effective analytics and intelligence tools are necessary to mine and analyze the large pool of data available in healthcare organizations especially as healthcare providers in Asia-Pacific adopt EHR programs," saidFrost & Sullivan Research Analyst Natasha Gulati. "Efficient analysis improves patient care, reduces medical error, assists in prognosis, helps predict medical outcomes, and improves profitability."
It is crucial for medical and health professionals in Asia-Pacific to develop IT skills. Currently, IT professionals struggle to manage complex business analytics solutions and medical professionals are unable to leverage these solutions to their full advantage. This not only curbs adoption but also results in below average returns on investment in IT. Justifying the expenditure on advanced technologies poses a challenge for healthcare IT professionals. While on the one hand budget approvals require them to showcase achievements, on the other hand, achievements require a threshold amount of investment which needs to be approved by senior management.
Moreover, benefits such as reduction in medical error or improvements in patient outcomes cannot be measured in monetary terms. This makes it difficult to estimate the amount of expenditure required to accomplish a certain non-financial return.
"Business analytic tools need to evolve from just reporting and analyzing past data to predicting future performance," noted Gulati. "Vendors must invest in research and development to widen their scope and offer sophisticated predictive modeling, forecasting, and real-time responsiveness."
This will provide a more tangible return-on-investment and act as a feedback loop, driving adoption of business analytic tools in Asia-Pacific.
