Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead
The world as you knew it is gone. A ruined world stands in its place, full of nightmares come to life. Nothing can ever go back to the way it was, before the Cataclysm, but you have to be strong. You have to survive. You have to persevere. If you don't, death will be one of the better outcomes. Above your head, storm clouds gather, and the rain stings and hisses against your skin. You shoulder your backpack, and start walking. The world has gone to hell, but you get the sinking feeling that there are darker days ahead.
Cataclysm: DDA is an open source zombie-survival Roguelike, continuing on from the original Cataclysm by Whales. Builds are available for Windows, Linux and Mac, with experimental nightly builds available for Windows and Linux.

Roofing (self.cataclysmdda)
submitted 3 years ago by cr4y0nb0x
How do roofs work? Has anyone tried to build a house from the ground up? I've been wanting to try but wanted to know other people's experiences with it.

Floor tiles are actually "floor and roof" tiles. That may change in the future, as proper Z-levels are on the to-do list, but for now, just build floors.

The biggest user-visible piece of GNOME 3 will be the GNOME Shell, which manages the desktop experience. At GUADEC, Owen Taylor updated the assembled GNOME hackers on the current status of GNOME Shell and the work still to be done. He also demonstrated some of the new functionality and compared the Shell with where it was when he presented at the Gran Canaria Desktop Summit (GCDS) in 2009.
Since GCDS, "we wrote code", Taylor said, consisting of some 1362 commits, 1174 of which were code along with 188 translation commits. The project has also added new contributors and four of the top ten contributors since GCDS were new to the project. He was happy to see that those new contributors were not only prolific, but also added "very significant" new features.
In preparing for his talk, Taylor went back to the version from GCDS and was "surprised that it still built". The user interface has been redesigned since then and, in some cases, things have been rewritten three or four times in the interim. He found it interesting that certain features that he thought were there from the start were missing, while others that he thought were newer actually appeared in the year-old version.
The Shell now sports a "sleeker, black look" that fades into the background because it blends into the monitor bezel, he said. The "mess in the upper right hand corner" has been cleaned up, and the task list from last year is gone. In addition, the menus are not GTK-based, but are instead styled with the Shell, giving them a more integrated look.
Switching between applications and workspaces has also undergone some major changes. Alt-Tab now groups all of the windows for an application into a single entry, so that you choose between applications, rather than individual windows. Last year, activities were represented by a grid of workspaces with a dashboard to launch new applications. Now it is "slicker", with a linear view of the workspaces that can be scrolled horizontally to view additional workspaces.
The application browser has switched from a "straight reimplementation from GNOME 2" to a gridded view with fewer categories. Searching has also been integrated into the dashboard. The message tray now slides up from the bottom and you no longer have to dismiss each notification as you did in GNOME 2. It is also integrated with Empathy so that replying to a message no longer requires switching to the application itself—the reply can be typed into the message notification.
The "hot corner"—simply moving the mouse to the upper left corner of the screen—is another new feature. Moving there brings up the activities overview that shows workspaces, places, and recent documents. It's very useful, Taylor said, so much so that "if you go back to GNOME 2, you will keep going to the hot corner".
Looking Glass is an integrated JavaScript console, inspector, and debugger, which acts like "Firebug for the Shell". Taylor did a live demonstration by typing one-line JavaScript expressions into Looking Glass. With that (fairly) simple JavaScript, he was able to change menu titles, scale them to different sizes, and even have them run the scaling as a transition so that the text continuously grew in size.
GNOME Shell is based on the Clutter toolkit, but because "Clutter itself only has four actors that are useful" for the Shell, it uses the Shell toolkit (St) atop Clutter. St is descended from Moblin's MX toolkit, but is more focused on the needs of the Shell. St emphasizes CSS with transitions, property inheritance, shadows, rounded corners, and so on, which make for a "pretty powerful set of capabilities". MX has many more widgets and is more powerful overall. The separate evolution of St and MX is "not a good thing long-term" and the team aims to reunite them at some later point.
Taylor also talked about the development process for GNOME Shell, which is very reliant on code review. The normal GNOME model is "code ownership" he said, but the Shell does "code review of everything". There is no formal structure to the review process, but they get two pairs of eyes on all code changes. The process has its "good parts and not-so-good parts", but overall it works well because it spreads out the knowledge of the code among multiple people in the project. It can lead to bottlenecks, where "patches sit around for a while", but he definitely recommends that development model for other projects.
GNOME Shell is in "good shape" for basic functionality, like window switching and launching applications, Taylor said, though there are still bugs and other things to fix. It makes for a "pretty coherent whole" that can be used on a day-to-day basis. The status area in the upper right hand corner is still a work in progress as is the integration of the Shell with the rest of the system. He pointed to the log out and lock screen dialogs as things that were not yet rendered in the Shell style, and still look like the GNOME 2 versions.
Those changes will come relatively soon, but there are some other things that are a bit further out. The "recently used documents" in the activities overview is just a placeholder right now. There are no customization options for those who want to change the styles or behavior of the Shell. The plan is to add an extension API like Firefox has, but other than some basic infrastructure, that isn't nearly ready. In addition, there is no fall-back support if 3D graphics—required by Clutter—are not available. Some way to fall back to the GNOME 2 look in that case is desired.
Based on the status, it was probably fairly obvious to those in the room that GNOME Shell might not be completely ready for the September release—foreshadowing the next presentation, which was by Vincent Untz and the release team delaying GNOME 3.0. GNOME Shell definitely looks like more than an incremental change to the desktop experience, and Taylor's demo with Looking Glass showed the latent potential for theming and other customization that underlies the Shell. With an additional six months to work on it, focusing on completing a coherent whole, GNOME Shell seems quite likely to impress.
It seems like longer, but it's only been six months since Intel and Nokia announced that they'd be joining the Maemo and Moblin communities into MeeGo. A lot has happened in the interim, and MeeGo community manager Dawn Foster was on hand at LinuxCon to provide an update about the state of MeeGo and its community.
Foster started the presentation talking about the basics of MeeGo, its history and reasons for the merger. MeeGo's scope is everything from IVI (in-vehicle) systems to handsets and netbooks. MeeGo releases have been staggered so far, with the netbook developer release coming first, followed by the handset and then IVI release. However, Foster says that this is not the long-term plan. The MeeGo project is moving to a "cadence" of six-month releases starting in November.
Foster talked, in general terms, about the MeeGo focus on contributing back to upstream as part of the project goals. She said that goal was to contribute all work back to upstream projects used by MeeGo.
Why the merger? Intel and Nokia realized they had similar projects with similar ideas and goals, so it didn't make sense to pursue the two projects separately. The decision was made from a technical perspective, and Foster acknowledged that it was an internal decision between Intel and Nokia and not a community driven decision.
The MeeGo merger was not, shall we say, universally well-received. Development communities on both sides were surprised by the move and unhappy with some technical decisions. Foster noted some of the challenges that the project has had since its inception, including architectural issues like the packaging format (choosing RPM over Debian packages), governance challenges, and figuring out who would be responsible for various tasks. With Maemo and Moblin, people had well-defined areas of responsibility on each side, and Foster noted (without specifics) that, after the merger, it was necessary to choose one person from either MeeGo or Maemo to take responsibility.
This has brought on significant social and community challenges. The Maemo project had many interested users of mobile devices, while Moblin was focused on netbooks. Foster said that it's taken a lot of adjustment on both sides. "You have a new community that is different than the original communities. And there was frustration [...] early on with all these things and the timeline required to do this."
Foster then ran through the timeline of MeeGo development since its announcement in February. March 31st was "day one code" for the core operating system — everything below the user experience. May 25th was the netbook project code release that included the user experience for netbooks. June 30th was the release of handset day one code, targeted for developers. August 2nd MeeGo made the first IVI release. Now MeeGo will be moving to regular six-month update and release schedules with the 1.1 release coming in November where all the releases will converge. The only reason for the staggered releases initially, says Foster, is that the project is on an aggressive schedule.
MeeGo has been solving technical challenges quickly but social and community challenges take more time. Foster talked about the community growth and tools that have been put into place since its inception like mailing lists, forums, bugzilla, and so on. Foster noted that the community has been frustrated with the time required to determine the governance model and resolve other issues, but that has been mitigated with the code releases and having more clarity around the roles in MeeGo. Still, she says that there's a lot of work yet to be done.
Looking at the numbers, the MeeGo community does seem to be growing at a reasonable clip. The community now has more than 11,000 members, which is up from 9,626 in June. There have been about 7,400 posts on the developer mailing lists since project started in March, and more than 7,000 wiki edits and nearly 7,000 forum posts since the start a few months ago. Foster also said that there were about 430 people in the #meego IRC channel on the morning of the talk. Metrics are public, and can be found on the MeeGo wiki where Foster puts up monthly statistics.
Next, Foster focused on where MeeGo needs help and is looking to recruit contributors. In particular, Foster said that the "best" contributions were applications and noted that they need to get people "excited" about building applications for MeeGo. MeeGo does start with a fair base of applications. When Foster demonstrated MeeGo for the audience, she pointed out that she'd had pretty good success just installing things using RPMs. For instance, OpenOffice.org. However, the handset and IVI editions of MeeGo are unlikely to run random RPMs or applications like OpenOffice.org.
Foster talked briefly about the MeeGo Software Development Kit (SDK) to point out that developers could work on MeeGo apps on Linux and Windows.
Foster also stressed non-development contributions and noted that MeeGo could use people to update and edit the wiki, report bugs, write documentation and FAQs, and work on translations and localization.
What about core contributions? I asked whether MeeGo had any core or significant contributions outside developers employed by Intel and Nokia. So far, not much. Foster did mention that Novell had been "very active" and that a few developers from other companies had been involved but not very many.
Another question about MeeGo from the audience was the state of open source drivers. Foster says that MeeGo can't control the drivers from OEMs, but "the goal is to have an environment that is fully functional from an OSS perspective, but we can't control that." What about drivers from Intel or Nokia? Foster, and another Intel employee in the audience, noted that they were making a good effort to ensure that hardware from Intel came with open drivers. However, Foster says that MeeGo is run by a software unit inside Intel, while the bulk of Intel is (of course) focused on hardware. Thus, it requires negotiation with other business units to try to make sure that hardware is always released with open drivers. Unfortunately, they don't always succeed, and can't guarantee 100% success in the future.
Foster demonstrated a MeeGo system for the audience, taking about 10 minutes to walk through the interface and features on a Toshiba that had originally shipped with Windows. Overall, the interface is looking pretty good. Some details need to be ironed out, however. For example, MeeGo currently does not expose any way to turn the system off or reboot through software. Foster says this is an area of contention within the MeeGo community, with some passionately arguing for or against the presence of power controls in software versus only featuring a hardware button for power off. This can be very confusing when software updates prompt the user to reboot.
Contributors interested in working on MeeGo can join the meetings on IRC, and should consider attending the first MeeGo conference to be held in Dublin, Ireland. The conference is to be held November 15 through 17, though apparently it will end early on the 17th to make way for a football (or "soccer" as recognized by those in the U.S.) match. A tour of the Guinness facility is also in the offing. The conference is capped at 600 people, and travel sponsorship may be available for those with significant contributions beyond just employees of Intel and Nokia. Proposals are welcome through August 23rd.
Overall, the update shows a community that is still in a nascent stage. Foster signaled willingness to address community issues and try to include developers outside Nokia and Intel's walls, though specifics were a bit lacking. It would have been interesting to hear more details about MeeGo's governance and plans to include contributors outside the corporate walls, which is going to be fairly important if MeeGo is going to succeed as a legitimate community project. As it stands, it does seem that MeeGo has taken some reasonable steps toward addressing community concerns and trying to include external contributors in the long term.
The opening question was simple: what was the most significant Linux-related story in the last ten years? Sean wasted no time in naming the SCO case - it is, he says, "the story that keeps on giving"; seven years later and he's still writing about it. Steven, instead, cited IBM's endorsement of Linux and statement that it would be investing $1 billion in the platform. That announcement, he says, legitimized the platform and made it possible for people in companies worldwide to consider using it without getting into trouble. Jason pointed at the birth of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, while Ryan talked about the onset of "mobile ubiquity" and the near dominance that Linux has in that area. Ryan also mentioned MeeGo as an example of how large companies have come to appreciate the value of collaboration.
Zonker, instead, nominated the rise of Ubuntu. He said that Ubuntu forced the other distributors to focus on community, something they had not been doing well before; this is a claim which was not universally accepted by the audience. At this point, Sean jumped in to say that Ubuntu only took off because of the seemingly unending delays in the Debian Sarge release. Had Sarge gone out on time, he says, we would not be hearing so much about Ubuntu now. Steven added that Ubuntu succeeded because it was an attempt at commercializing Debian from the outside; earlier attempts from the inside (he mentioned Ian Murdock in particular) were seriously attacked by the community and didn't get very far.
Moving on: what is the big story for Linux today? The consensus answer seemed to be "Android." Steven claims that ChromeOS is going to be a big deal. He also mentioned the license compliance program just announced by the Linux Foundation which, he says, will speed Linux adoption.
The reporters were then asked about numbers from analysts, which, when it comes to Linux, are somewhat controversial. How do they cope with that uncertainty? Ryan responded that these numbers (covering Linux adoption and such) are not really illustrative and are missing a lot of context. Beyond that, they are the product of companies with conflicts of interest; analyst firms have paying customers who have an interest in how those numbers come out, so the result is not objective. Sean said he does not trust the numbers; they are always wrong, so he does not use them. Jason wished for better numbers on enterprise subscription sales, while Zonker criticized analyst firms for refusing to come up with a solid methodology for counting unpaid Linux use. Steven asked simply: who cares about these numbers anyway?
It was asked: it seems to be harder to get reporters' attention for Linux-related stories in recent years, what are reporters looking for? Sean suggested that there are really only ten Linux stories that he writes and rewrites repeatedly; one of them is "Mark Shuttleworth said..." He also said that he always covers what the big vendors are doing, but news of the form "application X now runs on Linux" is not really interesting. Zonker noted that, while more reporters (with less expertise) are covering Linux due to its increasingly mainstream nature, a lot of reporters have also been laid off in recent years. Steven said that we're seeing a natural progression; like the radio magazines of the 1920's or the Internet magazines of the 1990's, much Linux news has simply become mundane and boring.
Steven also said that there is little interest by publishers in "serious" stories about Linux, a statement that Zonker seconded. It is necessary to write "popular" stories that will draw advertisers. Linux companies, it seems, are not big buyers of online advertising; that affects coverage too. Several of the panelists said that there is still a firm wall between advertising and editorial, but that claim (in your editor's opinion) seems somewhat contradicted by the fact that they have a hard time pitching stories which do not appeal to advertisers. Jason said that the publishing business model is, in general, in trouble and hasn't yet figured out the changes that have come with the Internet.
As an aside, Zonker asked how many members of the audience run AdBlock (quite a few hands were raised). Those people were told that they are "killing publishing, seriously."
Next question: who is the audience for what the panelists are writing? Ryan said that ars technica has a highly diverse audience, since it is not just a Linux-related site. Their readers are technology enthusiasts who (advertisers are told) will take what they learn to the workplace. Jason writes for enterprise information technology workers, while Zonker writes for a number of different publications (including LWN) with a variety of audiences. Steven, too, writes for many audiences.
What about companies becoming their own publishers? Steven claimed that people are becoming confused by publications which really just carry the company line, as opposed to what a real reporter would say. Readers are not asking often enough where a particular bit of news comes from. Ryan noted that open source companies are much more transparent than many others, so information tends to be more accessible; community members can use that information to get the word out, reducing the need for traditional journalism. But Steven noted that these companies always have something that they are not saying - he mentioned silent fixes in Mozilla releases - so there is still a need for people who will dig through stuff. Zonker said that what's often missing is context; he suggested that people will wander into (for example) the GNOME census story without understanding all that's going on.
At that point, time ran out for this standing-room-only session. In your editor's opinion, it was an interesting look at how the more traditional media sees our community and the pressures that reporters are working under. Those people, too, are operating in a rapidly changing world; they have the challenging task of documenting those changes while being very much in the middle of them.

I have been working at Jacobs Associates full-time (More than 3 years)
Top notch colleagues - everyone I have worked with and around are intelligent professionals; most are published, many have niche specialty experience, all have great attitudes and integrity. The leadership of the firm are high quality, inspirational individuals who are well respected in the industry and very down-to-earth.
Due to the specialty nature of the work Jacobs Associates does, many of the projects are high profile and technically challenging. There are numerous opportunities to learn and contribute on these projects.
I am totally satisfied with my total compensation package (benefits, salary, profit sharing, 401k matching, bonus, stock, and "volunteer time off").
When I joined Jacobs Associates after working for two other firms in the industry, one of my primary goals was to improve my work-life balance. All of my colleagues at JA have a great work-life balance. This has shown me that it is ok to work hard during the day and have a balanced life outside of work. I have never been happier at work!
HR has prepared a matrix outlining the criteria/requirements for promotions; but there seem to be additional unpublished factors that also determine if/when promotions occur. This is not a deal-breaker for me because I am very satisfied in my current role; but if you are impatient and expect rapid promotion, you might be disappointed.
I have been working at Jacobs Associates full-time (More than 5 years)

Re: If there is no infection at all then 1% of the population will still test positive.
This gets into understanding how medical tests work (IAAD, and this is a bit of a niche) and which tests you should use.
If there is a very low infection rate, and you are looking to 'rule in' you need a test that is very specific (is only true in disease) otherwise you suffer from too many false positives.
Equally, once the infection is fairly widespread, it is generally safe to assume that anyone who looks like a zombie, is a zombie.
We generally use medical tests with a 1% 'error' rate because in practice that is usually good enough.
To look at this problem in a better way, Likelihood Ratios are the way to go.

Treatment for the most common inherited cause of blindness, retinitis pigmentosa, is one step closer, according to investigators at the Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC). They are the first to link two new gene mutations in two French-Canadian families to loss of vision in humans. Their findings are published in this months issue of the American Journal of Ophthalmology. This project was funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), le Fonds de la recherche en santé du Québec (FRSQ) and the Foundation Fighting Blindness - Canada.
Approximately 1.5 million people worldwide are affected by retinitis pigmentosa, which at the moment has no cure. This disease causes vision loss by progressive degeneration and death of the cells that make up the retina, the portion of the eye that responds to light.
"Retinitis pigmentosa is a devastating and complex disease," says principal investigator, Dr. Robert Koenekoop, director of pediatric ophthalmology at the Montreal Children's Hospital of the MUHC. "Many genes, gene mutations and symptoms are involved. The first steps to developing a treatment are the characterization of all these factors. Important progress has been made by identifying two important gene mutations present in the French-Canadian population."

"GSA keeps options open for Networx contract"
Networx telecommunications contract architects, who have worked on developing the ambitious proposed vehicle for more than a year, are finding themselves pulled in different directions by industry officials, Congress and the agencies that will use the contract.
For more than a year, officials at the General Services Administration's Federal Technology Service have been trying to balance low costs for agencies with rapid changes in technology and the industry that provides it. After all their work, they have a plan for the contract, but it is still subject to change.
"It's all on the table," said John Johnson, FTS' assistant commissioner for service
development and acting assistant commissioner for service delivery, speaking of the details of Networx. He plans to release a revised strategy in a month or two, he said.
But Johnson faces a tightening window to finalize the contract. Sprint's place on the current FTS 2001 contract will expire in December 2006, followed by MCI's in January 2007. A one-year transition period follows each expiration date, but he wants to award Networx in time for agencies to have at least two years to make the switch. The program will also replace the assortment of Metropolitan Area Acquisition contracts that govern localized services. They will expire one by one during the next several years.
The warring opinions already have forced Johnson to delay a draft request for proposals (RFP). Originally planned to be released next month, it will be out sometime in the summer, he said.
The scope of offerings that a sweeping telecom contract has available is also growing, he said. FTS 2001 started with 24 core services and now has 35. By the time Networx becomes operational, Johnson said, there will be 56 core services.
"There should not be a large gap between what we're doing in FTS 2001 and what we'll do in Networx," he said. "If there is, we're not doing our job right. We're not trying to make up for shortcomings" because FTS 2001 is a success.
Rep. Tom Davis (R-Va.) and staff members of the Government Reform Committee question the particulars of the planned contract, said John Brosnan, senior procurement counsel with the General Accounting Office who has been detailed to the committee.
Committee members have already held one hearing on Networx, and will probably hold at least one more, Brosnan said. "We're going to exercise our oversight authority," he said.
Johnson said he believes FTS officials and committee members are not too far apart in their views and it is appropriate for Congress to consider all possible configurations the new contract could take.
The major questions that Johnson is still wrestling with pertain to the foundation of Networx, such as whether there should be one or two contracts.
FTS' plan is to offer one contract called Networx Universal for wide-ranging services, and a second called Networx Select
for more localized and possibly more cutting-edge offerings. But critics have suggested that the larger Universal vehicle might squeeze contractors on the Select contract out of the market, especially if FTS awards the two contracts months apart, as planned.
Another issue is the role that systems integrators should play. With voice and data services converging, integrators are increasingly called upon to do network projects for agencies.
"The role of the integrator today is very apparent," Johnson said. "The question is, does Networx need to have a separate integrator component, or should we look at the whole of offerings from FTS?" Other FTS contracts offer integrator services, he said.
Also, agency officials have grappled with the rapidly changing face of telecom and network technology. IP networks are in growing demand now, and voice over IP is inexpensive, Johnson said. But with conventional long-distance telephone service rapidly dropping and expected to reach a penny-a-minute rate, "what sense does it make to move to an IP infrastructure?" he asked. Voice over IP may drop to less than a cent a minute to encourage the migration, he said.
"A penny a minute is a nice number, but the unfortunate thing is a penny a minute may not be enough," said Frank Dzubeck, president of Communications Network Architects Inc. in Washington, D.C. "It's not cheap when you're dealing in volumes. People have to understand that economies inside the federal environment are dependent on volumes that are nowhere else existent in the enterprise space. Small changes can save millions of dollars."
Dzubeck said he believes FTS officials have largely made up their minds about what shape they want Networx to take, despite their willingness to listen to other viewpoints.
One of the most important questions for the officials to settle is how to ensure the contract offers current technology, he said. Agency leaders will increasingly want the newest and best available technology.
"You can't be a Luddite and work for the federal government anymore," he said. "You'll get hung out to dry. You have to bring technology in that increases productivity and saves money. The years of stagnation are over."

Arola Attorney, Agent, or Firm-Wood, Herron & Evans [57] ABSTRACT A quick attach clamp for attaching an air hose to a receiving member such as the inlet of an automotive air filter. The clamp is fastened inside the hose, across-the diameter thereof, but presents minimal obstruction to air flow. The clamp presents longitudinal fingers adjacent the opposite inside surfaces of the hose, which fingers are stressed apart springlike in opposite radial directions and which grip the inlet side wall between them.
21 Claims, 2 Drawing Figures CLAMP FOR AIR FILTER HOSE This invention relates to clamp apparatus of securing a pneumatic hose to a cooperating receiving part. The apparatus is useful, among other ways, for attaching an air hose to the inlet of an automobile air filter housing, and the invention is discussed herein with primary reference to such use, by way of example.
An automobile air filter element is commonly mounted in a metal housing having an inlet comprising a short, protruding open-ended tube or conduit. Air is drawn into the housing through this inlet and thereafter through the air filter to the carburetor of the engine. In order to supply cool air from outside the engine compartment, a flexible air hose leads to the inlet. In some instances, the hose has been merely slip-fitted over the inlet, but that has not been satisfactory because the hose could work loose, and need has existed for a more secure connection between the two.
It has, therefore, been a principal object of this invention to provide apparatus for positively but releasably securing a hose to the inlet of an air filter housing.
A further object of the invention has been to provide a unitary quick attaching apparatus for securing the end of a hose over a corresponding part, the securing apparatus presenting a minimum obstruction to the flow of air through the hose.
A further object of the invention has been to provide an apparatus for facilitating the connection of an air conducting hose to a corresponding inlet of an air filter housing.
In a preferred embodiment, the invention includes a unitary clamp which is adapted to be attached within a flexible elongated hose adjacent the end thereof, and which is configured to engage and clamp onto the projecting inlet of an air filter housing when the hose is pushed thereover.
This apparatus has two clamping portions or mem bers, each presenting three side by side forwardly extending resilient spring fingers. Each member is secured at its rearward end to the other via an integral transverse cross piece or connector. The spring fingers are constructed and contoured to mate or cooperate with interlocking contours on the inlet tube of the housing to provide a positive latch against withdrawal of the hose.
The transverse connector has a length approximately equal to the internal diameter of the hose and thus holds the clamping members apart against opposite internal sides of the hose. The clamping members are attached to the hose at diametrically opposite sides thereof. The transverse connector is disposed in a plane generally parallel to the axis of the elongated hose, and presents minimal resistance to air flow through the hose.
The two outer or side resilient spring fingers of each clamping member are configured to cooperate with one surface (such as the exterior or outside wall) of the filter housing inlet, while a third central resilient spring finger of each clamping member is configured to cooperate with an opposite surface (such as the interior or inside wall) of the inlet. When the hose is pushed over the inlet, the two side fingers of each member ride over the exterior inlet wall and the central finger of each member rides over the interior wall. The inlet and/or the fingers have angulated or camming surfaces at their outer ends, and as these slide over the inlet end the two side fingers are spread apart (radially) from the third central finger until continued forward motion registers the fingers with the contours of the inlet. The outwardly and inwardly stressed fingers then look the inlet wall between them, and thereby positively clamp the hose in position around the inlet. The hose can be eas ily released from the inlet by pulling outwardly on the two side fingers of each clamping member and simultaneously withdrawing the hose.
The invention thus provides a highly economical and simple apparatus which can be easily attached within a hose and which greatly facilitates assembly of the hose to the air filter housing in a positive but releasable manner.
These and other objects and advantages will become readily apparent from the following detailed description of a preferred embodiment of the invention and from the drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an automobile air filter with a hose attached to it by a clamp in accordance with the invention, with a portion of the hose broken away so that the details of the preferred embodiment can be seen, and
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along the lines 2-2 of FIG. 1.
In the drawings, FIG. 1 shows an air filter housing 10 having an inlet 11 to which an elongated air hose 12 is attached via a clamping apparatus 13 in accordance with the invention. Housing 10 typically includes an air I filter receiving bowl 14 and a separable top 15 which cooperate to form an enclosure for an air filter (not shown), in the manner known in the art. The bowl 14, the top 15 and the air filter are all secured together via bolt 16 and wing nut 17. In normal operation, air is drawn into the housing through the inlet 11.
A hose 12 conducts cool air to the inlet 11. The hose has a distal or remote end (not shown) positioned to take in fresh air from outside the engine compartment. A forward hose end 20 extends around the clamping apparatus 13 and over the end of the inlet 1 1. Hose end 20 and inlet 11 are configured so that the hose 12 fits the inlet in a reasonably tight manner.
In normal air filter housing, the inlet 11 generally comprises a tube or tubular conduit which may have a generally circular cross-section. In the particular embodiment shown, the inlet 11 is provided with a portion 25 of reduced diameter (see FIG. 2) and an outward transverse wall portion of increased diameter that forms a circumferential abutment 26. The primary function of this circumferential abutment is to cooperate with the clamping apparatus hereinafter described. (It will be understood and appreciated from this disclosure that the clamping apparatus can cooperate with the tube configurations. For example, the protruding inlet 11 could be provided with lugs stamped from the wall of the inlet.)
The circumferential abutment 26 leads outwardly to an inwardly tapering cam surface 27, which extends to an open end 29 of the inlet 11. The open end or orifice 29 of the inlet has a diameter which, as shown in FIG. 2, is substantially similar to that of the reduced portion 25.
When the engine (not shown) served by the filter is operating, air is drawn through hose 12 to opening 29 of inlet 11, into the housing 10. The hose is secured over the inlet 11, and has a distal end positioned to intake cooling air. Hose 12 may be of any type and is preferably flexible. While it is not shown in the drawings, an elongated corrugated hose having a flexible helical frame covered by a flexible material is especially suitable.
The clamping apparatus 13 is attached within the hose proximate the end thereof and extends forwardly to the end 20 of the hose in order to cooperate with the inlet 11 and to positively but releasably secure the hose over the inlet 11. The clamp comprises two parallel spaced apart, forward, extending clamping members or arms 30 and 31. While a unitary clamping apparatus is depicted in the drawings, it can be appreciated that two or more separate clamping members may be utilized.
In the preferred embodiment, the clamping members 30 and 31 are connected together via a transverse cross piece or integral connector 32. This connector has a length which is approximately equal to the inside diameter of the hose 12, and it thereby positions the clamping members 31 and 30 against opposite internal walls or surfaces of the hose. Means such as staples 33 may be utilized to fasten the clamping members to the opposite walls of the hose. This particular construction has the advantage that the clamping apparatus tends to maintain the configuration of the hose.
The transverse cross piece 32 may be formed integrally with the clamping members 30 and 31, and the complete clamping apparatus can be stamped from a single unitary blank. The transverse connector 32 which extends across the interior of the hose has a side or a width designated at 34 and its thickness (apart from a rib 24) is substantially equal to the thickness of the clamping members. From the drawings it can be seen that the connector is bent at right angles to the clamping members, so that the width of the connector lies in a plane which extends generally parallel to the longitudinal axis of the elongated hose 12. In this manner, only the thickness of the convertor lies across the air passage and the connector only minimally restricts the free flow of air through the hose at this point.
Each clamping member 30 and 31 is provided with three side-by-side, forwardly extending resilient fingers. Two outer or side fingers of each member are each designated at 35 and a third or central finger of each member is designated at 36. The fingers are angulatd with respect to the respective members 30, 31, as at 40.
In operation, the central finger 36 of each member radially opposes the two side fingers 35, 35 so as to form a clamp. When the hose is pushed over the inlet 11, the two resilient fingers 35, 35 and the resilient finger 36 resist movement of the hose in the opposite radial directions, thereby clamping the inlet 11 therebetween to secure the hose to the inlet.
The fingers 35, 35 are configured or contoured to cooperate with the shape of the external wall of the particular inlet 11 to which the hose is to be mounted. In the embodiment shown, the fingers 35, 35 are provided with an inwardly extending, inlet or tube engaging transverse abutment 37 for registering with the circumferential abutment 26 provided on inlet 11. Each finger 35 has an outwardly flared end 38, while each finger 36 has an inwardly flared end 39. This particular construction provides a wide-mouthed path for receipt of the inlet end 27 as the hose is pushed over the inlet and facilitates the proper engagement of the clamping apparatus and the hose with the inlet.
It should be noted that inward of the flared end 39 of central finger 36, an angle or edge 41 is formed on the finger, and that this edge is biased as a spring radially toward the plane of surfaces 42 which are defined on each outer finger 35, 35 just inwardly of the flared ends 38 thereof.
As a hose is pushed over the inlet, the fingers 35 and 36 of each clamping member are urged radially apart. Inlet cam surface 27 leads the fingers 35, 35 radially outward, and the angulated leading surface 39 on the central finger 36 leads it radially inward and past inlet surface 27. The fingers are biased toward each other springlike, so that the inlet is gripped between the central finger edge 41 and the outer finger surfaces 42. Continued forward motion of the hose and the clamping member over the inlet registers the respective abutments 26 and 37 so that the fingers can spring toward each other and thereby positively clamp the inlet between them. As shown in FIG. 2, the central fingers 36 are contoured or constructed to cooperate with the interior wall of the inlet 11 so that in clamping position, the fingers 36 are in an unrelaxed or stressed state and thereby insure positive engagement of the fingers 35, 35 with the exterior of the inlet.
When it is desired to remove the hose from the air filter housing 10, it is only necessary to grasp the flared ends 38 of the outer fingers 35 and withdraw them outwardly with respect to the inlet 11 so as to move the abutments 37 and 26 out of registry. The hose can then be withdrawn and removed from the inlet.
The particular apparatus provided by the invention greatly facilitates the assembly of an elongated hose onto an air filter housing and it can be readily appreciated that it is only necessary to push the hose onto the inlet in order to positively but releasably secure it. The clamping apparatus described above can be very simply and economically made by appropriate forming and cutting techniques from a single blank of appropriate sheet material.
These and other objects and advantages will become readily apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the scope of the invention and apt plicant intends to be be bound only by the claims appended hereto. v

Tue 26 Jan 16 - Tue 26 Jan 16 23 °C
Not a great start to our mini-tour of Rajasthan. We had been promised a recent 9-seater van by Emma Horn Travel (by Emma herself and by Moumita) but the thing that arrived was old and it seemed the driver did not speak English very well. We reluctantly set off down the road by after just a couple of kilometers, it was obvious that the bus really was terrible and that the driver really didn't speak English. Back we went to the hotel and after an hour of heated telephone calls, the best they could come up with was to provide 2 Toyota Innova MVPs down to Puskar when we would be met the following day by a "good" van which was being driven up to us from Udaipur!
Because of all the problems getting a decent van, we arrived in at our hotel The Aarum Baag later than we hoped but we still had time to drive the 8km down to Pushkar town and spend a very nice hour in a lakeside hotel overlooking the palaces and ghats
Do have a look at the Aarum Baag link; it's a totally bizarre place but we all had a very good stay
The drive from Jaipur to Pushkar was completely uninspiring, pretty much all the way on a very good motorway

ANGELINA JOLIE has filed for divorce from husband Brad Pitt, citing irreconcilable differences. The couple, who met in 2004 and married in 2014, share six children; Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Vivienne, and Knox. Jolie has asked the judge in her legal papers for physical custody of their children, giving Pitt joint legal custody and visitation rights.
In the court papers, Jolie listed the separation date as September 15, 2016. She is reportedly being represented by Laura Wasser, who recently represented Johnny Depp in his high-profile divorce from Amber Heard.
"This decision was made for the health of the family," confirmed Jolie's attorney, Robert Offer, in a statement today, reports The Independent. "She will not be commenting, and asks that the family be given its privacy at this time."
Pitt released a statement shortly after news of their divorce broke, telling People: "I am very saddened by this, but what matters most now is the well being of our kids. I kindly ask the press to give them the space they deserve during this challenging time."
Geyer Kosinski, Jolie's manager, told E! News: "Angelina will always do what's in the best interest to protect her children. She appreciates everyone's understanding of their need for privacy at this time." (Vogue)
Rihanna creative directed Delevingne in the campaign, which aims to inspire confidence in women everywhere (Harpers Bazaar)
Would there be fewer looks from the brand famous for delivering its biannual blockbusters? No – there were 83 comprehensive looks. How have monthly magazines been considered? Editors were invited under embargo earlier this year to view the collection and request pieces for their shoots. And would all of it be going into production? Yes. (Harpers Bazaar)

Kathy P - Queensland, Australia - Oct 12, 2015
"I am extremely happy ! The order I placed was delivered today to my family in Tuscany ! This was the first time I dealt with Giftbasketoverseas.com so I was a little reluctant, but very hopeful it will work. They delivered it promptly, just as requested, today, at the right address of my brother's house. I think they were too thrilled about it and decided to check it later so they did not notice my card, I will check again with them tomorrow, for it's got its rightful place: under the Christmas tree along with the rest of the gifts ! :) "

In yesterday's watercolor class with Kathy Delumpa Allegri, we played with Shizen paper. It's a recycled cotton paper with a slicker surface and handmade texture, quite a bit different from your usual watercolor paper. If you're looking for something a little different to play with, it's fun and the hand-torn edges (we used 8x8 inch) make it suitable for a floating frame.
I was also playing with a new color, Ultramarine Violet. Two masters of color, Nita Leland and Stephen Quiller, mention this color frequently in their books, so I finally broke down and decided to get some. It's a cool violet of sedimentary nature (which means particles will separate, giving your color a two-toned, pebbly look with certain techniques).
The rough texture made me think of caves, so I decided to do a cave painting of horses. This subject is one I've played with as far back as I can remember, so it allowed me to play with the paper without thinking to hard about the subject.
I only had a short time to do a second painting, so I went with the Tao method--charging wet paint into wet, and letting the blooms give me an idea of what my subject would be.
I like this paper so I'll probably play with it more in the future. If you decide to buy any online, watch what color you're getting. Most of the packs are colored, which will be great if you are using acrylics or another medium, but if you want it for watercolor, make sure you get white.
