LONDON — Brush up your Shakespeare, indeed: Broadway's current hit revival of "Kiss Me, Kate" is heading to the land of the Bard for an Oct. 30 opening at the Victoria Palace Theater, with previews set to begin Oct. 16 or possibly a few days earlier. The West End trans-fer will allow director Michael Blakemore to replicate his Tony-winning staging in his home city. If present plans pan out, it could also mark a rare London stand for all four of its original principals.
"I'd love to present the original New York company (in London) to the extent that we can," co-producer Roger Berlind, speaking from New York, tells Variety, "so that people can see the style of the piece." To that end, the hope is certainly to bring Brian Stokes Mitchell and Marin Mazzie to London, and possibly secondary leads Michael Berresse and Amy Spanger, as well.
Mitchell and Mazzie, says Berlind, "would both like to do it, and we would like them to do it," schedules permitting. That's a particularly complex equation in the case of last year's Tony-winning "Stokes," as Mitchell is called, who segued from the tuner at the Martin Beck directly to the starring role in August Wilson's incoming Broadway play, "King Hedley II."
Were Mitchell to come to London, that would mean crossing the Atlantic after his imminent Virginia Theater stand with barely a pause for breath. As Berlind acknowledges, his star "needs time off somewhere along the line."
The aim would be for the Broadway players to open "Kiss Me, Kate" and then give way — optimally after six months, per Berlind — to lo-cally hired talent schooled in the spirit of the show. As on Broadway, Berlind will co-produce with Roger Horchow, with a London pro-ducer (as yet undetermined) expected to join them; the Cole-Kitchenn partnership will general-manage.
Berlind puts the cost of the show in the £3 million ($4.4 million) vicinity — significantly lower than the $6.5 million Broadway capitali-zation, which paid back, says the producer, within nine months of its November 1999 opening. His last London producing venture was an earlier Blakemore show, "City of Angels," which got rave reviews and won a 1994 Olivier Award for best musical and died a costly and premature West End death.
"I'd take those reviews again," laughs Berlind. "I just hope they have a different result."
Brit bits
Neil LaBute will write and direct the world preem of his latest play, "The Shape of Things," running May 24-June 23 at the Almeida Theater's new home at King's Cross. His previous play, "bash," was produced by the Almeida last year, with LaBute an ongoing American presence in England during much of 2000 as writer-director (from Laura Jones' original screenplay) of the film of the A.S. Byatt novel "Possession."
The new four-character play has yet to be cast; Giles Cadle, currently repped by the Young Vic's "Six Characters Looking for an Author" (see review page TK), will design.
Londoners who never made it to Paris now won't have to jet off to Seattle, New York and other points west to catch "The Tragedy of Hamlet," with Adrian Lester in the title role, which caused a Continental sensation late last year.
Peter Brook's pared-down take on the Bard will run Aug. 22-Sept. 8 at the Young Vic, site of Brook's recent touring production of "Le Costume." Expect tickets to be, well, tough.
The sounds of, uh, stridence
Amanda Donohoe looks great in tight-fitting midnight blue and has one helluva way with a put-down, which for many may be enough reason to check out "The Graduate" again, whether or not you saw her predecessors, Kathleen Turner and Jerry Hall.
The first Briton to take on the role — as, incidentally, her surprisingly wayward American accent suggests — Donohoe, at 38, is also the youngest and the one most reminiscent of Anne Bancroft, whose sharp-eyed, angular features Donohoe often startlingly evokes. And so there she was Feb. 21 taking her bows center-stage, the audience on its feet, at this play's third press night in 10 months: Another 10 or 15 of these and the Gielgud Theater production will join "Art" and "An Inspector Calls" in the straight play cast-change sweepstakes.
Where Donohoe departs from her forebears is in succumbing to the mean-spiritedness of a Terry Johnson adaptation that, more than ever, humiliates almost all the women involved. (How else to explain the new Mrs. Braddock, Lolly Susi, flapping about the stage like a deranged barnyard animal?) One's heart bleeds for Coral Beed's decidedly plain Elaine Robinson, whose quite reasonable hysteria is played for laughs and worse: "Am I as attractive as her?" she asks with regard to her mother, a question from which most sympathetic spectators will simply recoil. (Andres Williams' expertly inflected Benjamin, on the other hand, brings buckets of charm to an essentially odious role.)
Donohoe commandeers the stage in a way Hall simply couldn't and Turner chose not to, with last April's original leading lady much more a good-time-girl gone astray. By contrast, whether curtly demanding her purse or, for that matter, a sex act, Donohoe means business. And as long as "The Graduate" continues to do business, actresses will no doubt continue queuing up so that they, too, can appear nude and get called a bitch.

PORT ST. LUCIE — John Maine survived his final Grapefruit League start, but that was about it.
With his stomach churning and head aching, Maine yesterday allowed four earned runs on six hits and four walks over 4 2/3 innings in the Mets' 9-3 loss to the Nationals.
Maine's hurling extended beyond the pitcher's mound, as he dealt with an upset stomach before and during the game.
He finished the spring 1-3 with a 7.88 ERA and will now prepare for a Wednesday start against the Marlins at Citi Field. Maine said his arm this spring felt better than it did at any point in the last two years.
"The last time [the ball] came out this easy without trying to force anything probably was spring training 2008," Maine said. "I might have been throwing a little harder then, but it's coming out good."
Maine isn't sure what caused his stomach problems, but said by the fifth inning he was completely dehydrated and weak.
"I don't care about my stomach or head or anything — my arm feels fine, my shoulder feels good," Maine said. "That is top priority."
Carlos Beltran expects to begin running in the next 10 days, at which time he'll have a better idea how close he is to joining the team.
"I am not going to predict anything," Beltran said, when asked about a possible return date. "Right now I'm following the program, and when I get to the stage of running I can see what I need to get to the stage of playing games."
Beltran, who underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right knee in January, has been taking light swings in the batting cage and playing catch. He is expected to miss at least the season's first month.
Manager Jerry Manuel doesn't expect to have his roster finalized until Sunday's deadline. Raul Valdes continues to impress the manager as a possible lefty specialist. Valdes allowed a run over two-thirds of an inning yesterday, but has a 2.08 ERA this spring.
"He has put himself in a real good position with the bullpen," Manuel said. "He has been very impressive."

In my last column I explained how I judge whether a share is overvalued or undervalued. The basic earnings yield calculation I described is earnings (profit for the most recent financial year) divided by market capitalisation (the price of all the shares with a claim on the profit) and expressed as a percentage.
It's a measure of return on investment, and the reciprocal of the venerable price earnings ratio (price divided by earnings). If the earnings yield is, say, 5 per cent, we're paying more than 20 times earnings for the shares, too much for all but the very best fi rms. While good companies are likely to grow and over time yield more, there are limits to how much it is wise to pay. I don't use this simple version of the earnings yield though; my version accounts for how companies are financed.
Companies are financed in different ways – some have debt while others do not, some lease their premises or equipment (which is a kind of borrowing) and others own them outright, and some have not paid sufficient money into their pension schemes to meet their obligations, which means they have run up a debt to current and past employees.
Rather than use a company's market capitalisation, which only measures the market value of the firm's equity, I add all these forms of debt to the market capitalisation, to produce a figure known as enterprise value. It's a measure of the value of the whole business, in the same way as the market value of a £500,000 house is the value of the equity : the £100,000, say, of your own money used to purchase it, and the £400,000 you borrowed when you mortgaged the property.
Since we have changed the denominator of the earnings yield calculation to include all the debt in the market value, or price, of the company (as though we are paying it off), we do not include the cost of that debt (i.e. the interest) in the numerator, profit. The adjusted profit measure is expressed as a percentage of the enterprise value to calculate the earnings yield.
Why value the whole business, rather than just the equity component?
When you buy shares, you buy the right to a proportionate share in the profit the enterprise subsequently earns. The profit is generated by the whole business, including those parts financed by debt. But debt distorts the returns on our investment as measured by the standard earnings yield calculation in two ways: it reduces the profit (the return) by the interest cost, and it reduces the investment (market value of equity) because a company relying on debt funding requires less equity funding.
Please click the graph below for an expanded version.
Since the value of equity (market capitalisation) and profit determine the standard earnings yield and p/e ratio, the company's valuation is determined partly by how it's financed. But if a company were to change the way it's financed, we wouldn't expect the value of the firm or of the shares we own in it to change, any more than we'd expect the value of a house to rise just because we remortgaged.
By incorporating the value of debt into the purchase price of the company and ignoring the interest component of profit, we calculate a debt-free valuation as though we'd bought the company outright. It puts firms with differing amounts of debt on a more equal footing. It's better for us as long-term investors to base our valuations on the returns we might expect from the business itself, rather than arbitrary levels of leverage.
If that sounds complicated, you needn't worry much. Stick to companies that do not have much debt and the standard earnings yield or price/earnings ratio is a reasonable guide to valuation. If you prefer to value the enterprise and not just the equity, you can cheat. Software providers such as SharePad calculate 'Ebit' yields, a version of my earnings yield.

SCIE press release
Dementia – early signs and diagnosis
4 July 2012
An early diagnosis of dementia is so, so important. Once diagnosed, I knew what I was up against.Norrms, speaking on his YouTube video
The benefits of an early diagnosis of dementia
There's new support for anyone affected by the early signs of dementia. The new section to the Dementia Gateway, from the Social Care Institute for Excellence, looks at how getting a diagnosis of dementia can be a crucial first step in obtaining support, to cope and to come to terms with the condition.
For many people who develop dementia, the early stages are hugely difficult. They can have feelings of uncertainty, denial, confusion and a drop in self-confidence. These can all combine to place strain on relationships and to throw regular daily life into chaos. So the early signs and diagnosis resource from SCIE supports people with dementia, their families, carers and also staff and managers who provide care and support.
SCIE's Chief Executive, Andrea Sutcliffe says:
This new resource is a welcome addition to the Dementia Gateway, particularly in the light of the recommendations from the All Parliamentary Group on Dementia in their recently published report, Unlocking Diagnosis. There are five new features, looking at issues such as why early diagnosis is so important, and what can be done about it. All those affected by dementia will find this invaluable. It includes quick activities, with trainer's notes, so that staff and carers can quickly learn about early signs and diagnosis. It's an important new section for the larger Dementia Gateway.
The new section covers:
- Early signs of dementia - What to look out for in the early stages
- Dementia risk factors - What factors increase the risk of developing dementia?
- What else could it be? - Other illnesses that cause dementia-like symptoms
- Why early diagnosis is important - The case for getting support early
- Getting a diagnosis - What's involved: tests, scans, GPs and specialists
- SCIE's Dementia Gateway
- Early signs and diagnosis section
- SCIE's resources on dementia
- The Alzheimer's Society/All Party Parliamentary Group report, Unlocking Diagnosis

The stimulus-funded Massachusetts appliance rebate program will have an even shorter window than anticipated – two weeks. As outlined in our early February post, the program provides a needed incentive to consumers, but the funding would easily be exhausted within a month with even average demand. Between Earth Day, April 22nd and May 5th, Massachusetts consumers will be able to earn rebates between $50 and $250 for purchasing certain energy efficient appliances.
As previously described, the program, dubbed the "Great Appliance Exchange", will
- be limited to certain appliance types (expected to include refrigerators, freezers, clothes washers and dishwashers)
- require consumers to turn in the appliances being replaced
The list of qualifying appliances and participating retailers will be posted on the program's website at http://www.masssave.com/gax on March 22nd.

Sometimes breastfeeding hurts.
It just does.
Yes, there it is. I said it. I don't know how many times, including in On Becoming Babywise, I have read that if baby is latched correctly and everything is right then breastfeeding will not hurt.
I had the WORST pain while nursing for almost 10 weeks! It was horrible! I kept going to the lactation consultant and the doctor, and it was never a yeast/thrush issue. The lactation consultant said my son latched on perfectly, but that he had a very shallow suck, so it was him that made it painful and there wasn't much I could do about it. Once we hit around 12 weeks, it didn't really hurt at all, and finally felt natural. What I think made it so painful was my breast size. I was a 36 DDD (yes, 3 of them!) and he was was a tiny 6 lb baby. To properly nurse, the areola needs to make its way in the mouth, and there was no way his itty bitty mouth was able to do that for a long time! No one ever confirmed it to me, but I honestly think that was the issue. It didn't help that I had one hand hold his head and the other holding the boob. Thank you for letting new mothers know that it's not always like what you see in the pictures!
THANK YOU! I just about was ready to kill my husband every time he echoed the breastfeeding class early on saying "It shouldn't hurt." Well, you know what? That's just not true. And no real woman I have ever known thought that. Just the classes. Now? 8 months later? I STILL will occasionally get the clogged duct, engorged pain, or bleeding thanks to someone biting with his mouth full of teeth, even though breastfeeding has been a highly successful experience for us. I do not think that perpetrating this "It shouldn't hurt if it's done right" myth does anyone any favors. So, thank you.
SO SO true!!
A good friend of mine, who was super committed to breastfeeding all through her pregnancy, nearly gave up before her baby was 3 weeks old. I was kind of shocked that she was planning to stop so soon, and told her that, for me, I found breastfeeding to be more unpleasant than pleasant for the first 12 weeks. At 12 weeks, I finally felt like the unpleasant/pain equaled the enjoyment and benefits for me.
I encouraged her to try it for 12 weeks if she still felt like breastfeeding could be the right choice for them. Her baby is now close to that and they are still doing mostly breastfeeding, I believe.
I think the "breastfeeding doesn't hurt" myth sets women up for unreasonable expectations. It's good to find out WHY it's hurting and fix what you can, but those first few weeks especially can be way more painful than you expect!!
I think anytime a nursing mom is hurting or cracked and bleeding she should talk with a good lactation consultant. Sometimes, it does hurt just because, but other times there's a reason. I found out that I wasn't getting enough of my breast in my baby's mouth. For a baby that's a chewer when sucking, a tip I learned is to dip a clean finger in water and put touch it to the roof of baby's mouth (fingerpad up; next to tongue) for baby to suck on just long enough to get sucking correctly. Then latch on.
You know what's insane? I had ZERO pain when nursing my first baby. I thought it was because I was religious about using Lansinoh after every.single.feeding. Yeah, i was wrong. Come baby number two, and breastfeeding was excruciating. And I think I went through 4 tubes of Lansinoh in just the first 4 weeks. Obviously that wasn't helping. I had to shower with a bra and breast pads on through week 6 because I could not bear the sensation of water on my breasts. Honestly, nursing with my son was by far the most incredibly painful experience of my life. But, I was determined to stick with it. I figured he didn't have a latch problem, not tongue-tied. Eventually, between weeks 8-10 the pain finally subsided, but it was terrible. I wonder now had I used nipple shields if that would've helped.
So true :D After four, each one different, I'd experienced most issues, including yeast infection (owie) remedied with a vinegar and water rinse, mastitis, engorgement, etc. and knew by then, the books are going off the ideal, at best. Maybe they just don't want to scare us out of breastfeeding :D Anyway, I stuck it out because it was so important to me that my kids got breastmilk. It ain't easy, but I feel that it truly is worth it!! I also found with my last baby, on the midwife's advice, that letting her feed on demand (I know this goes against babywise) for just the first couple weeks, prevented all my engorgement, and to my surprise it was't at all hard to get her on a schedule thereafter. Wish I'd known this with the other three. And did you know to relieve engorgement, it is safe to completely empty your breastmilk using a pump once every 24 hours? Tried this, and it worked, and brought much relief, and no effect on my milk supply. I'd just do it after that 11 oclock feeding, and I'd get relief and be back at 3 with that needed supply, no prob. Why did I only find this out on baby number 3? :D Oh well!
Yes! Thank you! It drives me insane that doctors, lactation consultants, midwives, authors, etc tell us it should not hurt! It does so much damage and sets us up for failure. Breastfeeding just plain hurt until 9 weeks for me, I agonized over it day after day, feeling like there must be something wrong-but in the end it just can take time for you and baby to adjust and get accustomed to. I hope more women start to hear this!
Amen!!! It can hurt even when you're doing everything right. I'm unsure why women are afraid to admit that. Thank you for this post and I hope it helps other moms out there wondering "what's wrong with me?"
WHY does no one talk about this? I found out after I had been in horrible pain for weeks that most of my friends cried through the first few weeks of nursing. I really wish I had been more mentally prepared
This is so true. I had red blood blisters on my nipples for the first week and it was very painful. I mainly only experienced pain right when baby latched on, not during the entire feeding. The lactation consultant gave me a nipple shield to use and that helped some but it was still painful. I used the nipple shield for about a week to get me through that time then stopped using it when my daughter and I both figured out what we were doing. Yes, breastfeeding is a "natural" process but that doesn't mean you will get it right from the start. Yes, newborns have a suckling reflex but that doesn't mean they know how to breastfeed. It takes practice and dedication from both mommy and baby. With time, the pain should go away unless you are having one of the problems mentioned in the post (yeast infection, mastitis, etc).
Question!! I'm nursing my 4th child. He's now almost 8 months old, and everything's been going pretty well, up to this point (aside from the usual pain the first couple weeks and until after my milk comes in). This last month I've had 3 occurrences of plugged milk ducts that I've been able to thankfully work out, but now, my one side (nipple) is very sore (same side that had the plugged ducts). It has been hurting when he nurses and hurts to the touch. He doesn't seem to be getting his teeth yet (thank goodness!) . . . anyone else have this experience? I've got the Lansinoh back out and it doesn't seem to be helping much. This is my 4th go around and I STILL have questions that come up! Definitely every child is different!!
to happyl8d....i struggled with plugged ducts too, especially when the kid's intake would change. And on time had a nipple that was cracked around the base almost clear around, that was sore for such a long time!!! I would guess that something about your baby's positioning is causing him to rub on you or overstretch, worst case you might have slight yeast irritating it?? My midwife would always tell me "change the baby's nursing position, it takes the stress off your nipple in that spot, and point the baby's chin toward the plugged duct, this put the majority of his/her suction toward the affected area and helps clear it. it's awkward to say the least, but does help :D I also quit using lansinoh, too sticky, found a product I LOVE by Earth Mama Angel Baby, called Nipple Butter. It's so nice, not sticky, perfectly safe for baby so you don't have to wash it off, you can get it on Amazon, or at health food store!! I doubt it's yeast, but in case, you could also try making a solution of half a cup of water, and one tablespoon white vinegar, and swab off your nipple with that after you nurse, then put on the nipple butter. Also just remembered, sometimes the Lansinoh can irritate people who are sensitive to wool...that could be your problem too. Hope one of those things helps!! Good luck!
Thank you for your reply, ME! He has gotten into a bad habit of pulling and tugging at me while nursing. (I think I have a slooooow let down.) I try to hold him close and tightly and sometimes he fights me with that. I didn't really think anything of it since just the one side is bothering me. I'm going to try a different nursing position to see if that helps. I just pulled out the Lansinoh (hadn't used it for probably 6 months), so I don't think the Lansinoh is the problem. And OUCH! I can't imagine the problem you had to deal with. Many of the women on this post are such troopers!! I'm so tempted to wean my son off of me just for some relief. It may come down to that if we can't get this problem taken care of. If it was a yeast infection, would he have thrush? I checked his tongue to make sure it was clear and it was fine. I don't see anything visually that would indicate a yeast infection. At any rate, seems to me that my letdown is most of the problem (combined with his impatience). I do my best to relax and let things just happen naturally . . . anyone got any other ideas how to speed things up a little?
Oh yes! It absolutely hurts. For the first week after my first child was born, I had to bite down on a rag every time he latched on. I wanted to scream it hurt so bad. My nipples had scabs on them. With the 2nd & 3rd, I had a couple of painful weeks too, but not as bad. But then I got mastitis with the 2nd one, which was a new experience. Breastfeeding is no picnic!
Thank you to everyone for sharing your stories! I am sure they will help future moms.
Troutmans, that is huge! I can imagine your theory would be correct.
Katy--I hate the teeth.
Natalie, that is very weird that it hurt with number two and not one. I used a nipple shield with Brayden and that helped with tenderness, but in general you don't want to use it too long or baby won't really nurse without it.
ME, I think if that is the goal of books (to not scare us off) they are seriously doubting the will of women. I think most women are willing to push through the pain ESPECIALLY if they know it is normal. When they read there should be no pain, they think they are doing something wrong and therefore some sort of failure as a mother because they can't even do this "natural" thing right. Just like Meg said.
Kate that is so true. I hoped Brayden would give up, but I was too stubborn to do it myself :)
April, your comment made me think about other things that are natural. Eating real food? Natural for a human, but takes practice to get good at it. Walking? Also natural, but again, not a pro immediately. I think that is an important thing to remember--natural is not the same as "easy" or "effortless"
I would look into yeast. When I had it with McKenna, she did not have any signs that I could see, and I knew what to look for. Look at my post on yeast for help with seeing if that is it. If it is, it will be a lot worse by now.
As for let down, have you tried pumping for a minute before he starts to see if you can get the let-down going faster?
I had clogged ducts THROUGHOUT my time breastfeeding. They stopped after I stopped using a nursing pillow. I can't be sure that was the cause, but I likely wouldn't use one again if I have another child. In all of my cases with clogged ducts, I set aside my nursing "schedule" and nursed WHENEVER my baby would nurse. I laid her on her back on the floor or bed and let the clogged breast hang over her nursing her that way to let gravity help pull out the clog. I also massaged the clog downward during nursing and in between nursing sessions and applied heat. I could feel immediate pressure relief when the clog was dislodged.

African American Art and Culture Complex in the Fillmore district of San Francisco, CA, is a beacon of restoring the African Diasporan culture through arts and activism. With your contribution, we can continue our mission of empowerment, by supporting an african centered film and encouraging our youth to see themselves as royal superheroes.
This campaign is a social movement of, by and for those of us that share the desire for truth, equality, and justice for all. After all no matter the colour we are one family. Let us come together this Black History Month (BHM) and make it the start of a new era by combining our resources, energy, and efforts
As we prepare to watching the Wakandan King take the big screens ,the reality in our city Hamillton is that many kids will have to choose between their bus passes, or meals for the week, and watching this movie. Let's come together to ensure every kid has the chance to see this Black Panther.
"Black Panther" features a superhero/ royalty member named T'Challa that is enriched with African culture, not only is he a hero but this character is also a scientist and strategist. This shows audiences that people of color can also be superheroes and royalty, it brings about the bigger picture that people of color, especially the youth, are more than just a sidekick; they're accepted, strong, intelligent, powerful, and have the ability to change the world for the better, just like this Marvel superhero.
New York man wants to make sure a key demographic doesn't miss out on the African superhero's exploits: kids of color. "I knew I wanted to do something for the children, especially of Harlem, because it was a community primarily of color,"
Are you excited about seeing the Superhero said to be a brilliant tactician, strategist, scientist, tracker and a Master of all forms of unarmed combat, take to the big screen and defeat the bad guy?
A local writer and activist Andray Domise inspired by the Black Panther set up a fund so youth in his community could see the superhero movie. But the response was been so overwhelming, what's left will go to encouraging black youth to get into television and film careers.
Ajax & Pickering Community Activist Sheereen Sylvester doing her part by organizing friends and families
Last February, Sheereen organized a Black History Month event for her family, in which they dressed up as black historical figures. From children as young as 4 years old, to adults. The event served as a fun, educational and empowering way of paying homage to our ancestors. Sheereen hopes to further empower black youth by providing them with the opportunity to see positive and powerful representation of themselves on the big screen.
Black History Month! It is about forging forward with renewed vision and hope for the future and setting an example for our young people so that they will have the determination and fortitude to be all they could be. It is time to break off the shackles of indolence and mediocracy and purposefully create our destiny. That is why I am endeavouring to take 100 young people to see the Black Panther.

3D Shape Measurement Based on the Phase Shifting and Stereovision methods
Han, Xu
MetadataShow full item record
This dissertation is focused on improving the performance of the 3D shape measurement systems based on the digital fringe projection, phase shifting, and stereovision techniques. New camera and projector models and calibration algorithms as well as a novel system design based on a combined phase shifting and stereovision method are introduced. The first part of this dissertation introduces systems based on the digital fringe projection and phase shifting techniques. The effect of lens distortion on both the camera and projector is modeled based on careful calibration. Radial and tangential distortion parameters of different orders are analyzed and the right combination of parameters is chosen to provide an optimal performance. Then a real-time system is designed based on this nonlinear calibration method, which achieves a maximum speed of 60 Hz. A new quality-map guided phase unwrapping algorithm is developed to address the phase ambiguity problem of the previous phase unwrapping algorithm, thus significantly enhancing the reliability of the system. In the second part of this dissertation, a novel design, which combines the phase shifting and stereovision techniques, is proposed to eliminate errors caused by inaccurate phase measurement. This method uses two cameras, which are set up for stereovision and one projector, which is used to project fringe patterns onto the object. Fringe images are taken by the two cameras simultaneously. The errors due to inaccurate phase measurement are significantly reduced because the two cameras produce phase maps with the same phase errors. The use of a visibility-modulated fringe pattern is also proposed to reduce the number of images required by this combined method, thus making the measurement of dynamically changing objects possible. A color system is designed to further improve the speed of this system. By utilizing color devices, one color fringe image is sufficient to reconstruct a 3D model instead of three black and white images. Finally, a portable 3D shape measurement system based on this combined phase shifting and stereovision method is proposed, which can be used to measure large objects.

The swallow (Hirundinidae) is a small family of birds including about 87 species worldwide, of which 7 breed in Canada.
The swallow (Hirundinidae) is a small family of birds including about 87 species worldwide, of which 7 breed in Canada, including the purple martin (Progne subis). Canadian swallows do not sing but all have distinctive call notes. All swallows feed mainly on flying insects, spending much time in flight. Their long wings give the impression of a larger bird, but they are actually small.
Many swallows are colonial, build nests in enclosed situations, and lay 4-6 eggs. In Canada most swallows rear one brood annually; in the West, barn swallows (Hirundo rustica) raise 2. Several species nest around settlements.
Native swallows fall into 3 groups. The brown-backed species - bank swallow (Riparia riparia) and northern rough-winged swallow (Stelgidopteryx serripennis) - nest in burrows in sea cliffs or riverbanks and in crevices in rock cliffs, respectively. Both range across the continent. Bank swallows are found far into the north and in Europe. Northern rough-winged swallows enter Canada only in the south, ranging down to Central America.
Tree swallows (Tachycineta bicolor) and violet-green swallows (T. thalassina) are early migrants, harbingers of spring. Both are iridescent blue-green above and white below. They nest in tree-holes or nest boxes. Tree swallows range across Canada, north to treeline; violet-green swallows are strictly western.
Cliff swallows (H. pyrrhonota) and barn swallows are metallic blue above and rusty brown below. Both construct nests from clay pellets in situations sheltered from rain and runoff water. The enclosed, gourd-shaped nests of cliff swallows are under cliff overhangs or eaves. Originally, barn swallows nested in caves or under cliff overhangs; now, they almost always nest under eaves of or inside buildings.
Swallows are accomplished, graceful fliers. In late summer, they mass in flocks on roadside wires, often several species together. Within a few weeks they have gone south, not returning to Canada for 7-8 months.

Blue Ivy Carter's closet is not only better than ours — Beyonce's mini-me has her own crown.
On Thursday, the proud mama took to her Tumblr account to share new photos of her little girl, which probably set off a giant wave of ooh's and aww's.
Included in the photoset: a tiny light orange dress, an undated photo of Queen Bey doting at what appears to be her daughter and mini hot pink Tom Ford heels.
But let's get back to that amazing crown. Are those diamonds real? What else was Blue Ivy holding during that Kodak moment? A wand? Sparkly scepter? Her entire crown collection in every color of the rainbow?
In other Beyonce news, the North American leg of her Mrs. Carter Show world tour will finally kick off on Friday in Los Angeles, Calif. And in case you missed it, the "Love on Top" singer recently announced more tour dates that will last through December.

How to Plan a Romantic Date on Valentine's Day
Yes, Valentine day is the signature day for lovebirds to come outside and meet each other. Before we start, I just want to point out that if you're just out there to have a good time, this advice isn't for you. If you want to date like a rockstar, then by all means, do it.
Valentine is the best day to go for a date because on valentine all have a mood of love. Women are strange, exotic, intuitive creatures, and we respond well to positive reinforcement. Do not glower. So all things you have to do by yourself. When you arrive for date always smiles even if you are a tough guy or nervous.
Be relaxed and free with her because your close hand and shaking legs give a chance to think her that you are hiding something. I personally suggest coffee is always a great way to start a date. When you are for coffee be groundbreaking and innovative like "I am so much hungry".Be engaging and responsive.
Always try to make atmosphere light and funny. Before going for date make some list that what make her happier and do that thing. Try some pickup line and express your love more and more.
Appreciate her more and more by telling that you are so pretty and you are so beautiful but be right because she really doesn't care if you are secretly neurotic. She is interested in how you portray yourself. Act confident, interested, engaged, self-assured, ambitious, and happy. She likes that.
The main thing that doesn't be a bunch of question gives time to her to speak something, listen to her carefully. I always noticed that girls love that guy who give importance to them.

Under the leadership of Mayor Rahm Emanuel – Chicago published its first Cultural Plan in 25 years. The plan reflects on the City's cultural legacy and makes "no small plans" for the future of Chicago and the lives of its residents.
As part of the community outreach process leading up to the plan, residents and organizations alike identified arts education was in listed as one of the top three cultural priorities for Chicago.
Neighborhood after neighborhood echoed the same sentiment: Chicago's schools and classroom should be full of art, music and movement.
Every major urban school district from New York to Seattle has, or is developing, a plan for Arts Education. Across the nation, the leaders of major urban school districts recognize that lessons in creativity and imaginative problem solving must begin at an early age if our children are to thrive in school and in a global economy.
Today, Chicago Public Schools – the third largest school district in the nation serving over 400,000 students – will stand with its sister cities in adopting a policy and programming blueprint that increases the access to, equity in, and quality of arts education.
The CPS Arts Education Plan builds upon a long, rich history of being on the leading edge of arts education in our city. Some key milestones include:
Early 1990's – Arts integration takes hold and begins to flourish in Chicago Public Schools bringing teaching artists and art organizations into partnership with classroom teachers and schools. Today, Chicago is home to some of the world's leading arts education programs.
1999 – The Magnet Cluster Initiative is launched by Chicago Public Schools, including the Fine and Performing Arts Magnet Cluster Program. (Today, 1 in 10 CPS Schools have the arts as their leading educational focus.)
2003 – 2006 – The Chicago Arts Education Initiative Demonstration Schools are launched in an initiative designed to provide sequential arts education – visual arts, dance, drama and music – to every child in all Chicago public elementary schools. Funded by the Chicago Community Trust, this initiative is one of the first attempts to bring all elementary students equal access to the arts.
2006 – CPS Department of Arts Education is established at the district level to anchor arts instruction across the District.
2009 – Arts at the Core is Released In 2009 Arts Alliance Illinois releases Arts at the Core: Every School, Every Student was the first and only audit of arts education in Illinois public schools. Despite almost all principals and superintendents agreeing that the arts are essential to a well-rounded education, Arts at the Core discovered 1 in 5 schools in Illinois offered no programming in the arts.
To assist teachers, administrators, and parents in strengthening arts education in schools, Arts Alliance Illinois publishes Arts at the Core: A Guidebook and Planning Tool.
2009 – The Chicago Arts Learning Initiative (CALI) Unites Arts Educators
This community-wide effort brings together 400 individuals from leading arts and cultural institutions, CPS leadership, principals, teachers and funding organizations. The goal is to coordinate the city's existing cultural and educational resources in an effort to create sustainable access to innovative arts learning for all Chicago Public School students.
The seminal Chicago Guide for Teaching and Learning in the Arts is released by the CPS Department of Arts Education, offering schools an effective roadmap for providing arts instruction to students at all grade levels.
2011 – Mayor Rahm Emanuel Elected As Rahm Emanuel, an arts advocate and former dancer, campaigns for office, he makes clear his thoughts on the importance of arts in CPS schools, stating,
One of my goals is to spread arts education throughout our public schools so that every child, no matter where they go to school, is exposed to the arts from kindergarten through high school. Student exposure to the arts is currently determined by where individual arts organizations decide to do outreach, the amount of private funding available to those schools in any given year and luck – that has to change.
— Mayor Emanuel
2011 – Chicago Community Trust Arts Convenings The Chicago Community Trust undertakes an extensive survey of community arts partners who provide services and programs to Chicago Public Schools. Surveyed through the lens of the four artistic disciplines—Dance, Music, Theater, and Visual Arts—the report further underscores gaps in the arts delivery model and highlights strategies for success.
2011 – The VIVA Project report gives voice to the arts In a project designed to dramatically increase classroom teachers' participation in important state and national public education policy decisions, the VIVA Project issues a report sanctioned by both the Chicago Teachers Union and Chicago Public Schools. Through this report, teachers provide strategies for expanding arts programs throughout the schools.
2011 – Ingenuity Incorporated is established through the recommendations of the Chicago Arts Learning Initiative (CALI) community. Ingenuity is charged with forging a vision for utilizing the arts to improve public education for each child, in each school throughout the city.
2012 – CPS' Department of Arts Education gets a new team Mario Rossero is appointed Director for the CPS Department of Arts Education for the Chicago Public Schools and selects a new team designed to support teachers and schools across the district in an effort to deepen art instruction.
2012 – Chicago Cultural Plan is Released
For the first time since Harold Washington was in office, Chicago undertakes the development of a new vision for the city via the 2012 Chicago Cultural Plan. Art in the schools becomes a leading priority when thousands of residents give voice to the importance of arts education.
2013 – CPS Arts Education Plan Released
Building upon 15 years of momentum and citywide efforts around improving arts education for all Chicago Public School students, CPS announces a new master CPS Arts Education Plan approved and adopted by the Chicago Board of Education. Arts Education becomes a core subject in grades K-12.
2013 and Beyond
Chicago Public Schools and Ingenuity Incorporated will work together and with arts partners city-wide to ensure full implementation of the Arts Education Plan across the district. Included in the Plan are a Creative Schools Initiative, guaranteed weekly minutes of arts instruction, and an Arts Liaison in every school.

For the first time in more than a decade, the first family will live in Gracie Mansion.
Mayor-elect Bill de Blasio and his family will move from their Brooklyn home to the official mayoral residence in the Yorkville section of Manhattan.
"It's a tough decision. Brooklyn is our home and Park Slope is our neighborhood. And we love these places. In many ways, they've come to define who we are," de Blasio, his wife Chirlane McCray, and their children Ciara and Dante said in a statement Wednesday.
The day after the election, de Blasio said the family still hadn't come to a consensus on a move to Gracie. Among the concerns was Dante's commute from the residence to his Brooklyn high school.
The family said that "logistical and security concerns" contributed to the final decision, along with "respect and gratitude for the people of New York City."
"For generations of New Yorkers, Gracie Mansion has been the home of the city's mayors and their families. It is a place where we celebrate the city and its people, a place where history doesn't just reside but is experienced by our fellow citizens," the statement said.
The family will keep their Park Slope home. They said their Brooklyn neighbors can still expect to see them at their favorite spots, including The Purity Diner and Bar Toto.
For 12 years, the 214-year-old building was left vacant by Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who chose to reside in his own town house.
The house has been largely used as a museum and occasionally opened up for city functions during Bloomberg's tenure.
Still, the mayor spent millions of his own cash on renovations to the yellow mansion, which sits in Carl Schurz Parkoverlooking the East River.

Who else thinks major record labels are evil?!?
Here's the reason in Elba's own words:(source)
When since should commercialism & art go hand in hand? Mozart died penniless however he's arguably the greatest composer who ever lived! It's time to do away with the "old guard" belief that record labels should be in control of a musician's artistic journey. Support independent music now!!!

How would you feel about a 20% reduction in pay for forty five years! Unless you start contributing toward your retirement early that is a very real possibility! No one wants to see a huge cut in their standard of living when they retire, so how much do you need to contribute toward retirement to keep your standard of living?
Social Security
The Social Security Administration has a web site to estimate your benefit. Using that calculator I found that my estimated benefit could range from 20-40% of my salary per year, depending on when I retired. I also suspect that the benefits will have to decrease as Social Security may need a bailout. However, I can't see Social Security disappearing completely either. For my calculation I assumed it will cover 30% your salary. Now most of us would be eating cat food if we had to make it on 30% of our salary so what do we do about the rest?
Investments to the Rescue
What you invested over the years must provide the rest for you. You can't reasonably expect to make more income when you are 90, so you better not withdraw too much or you will be forced to live on only social security. The rule of thumb is that a 4% withdrawal rate is very unlikely to deplete your investments. Say that you wanted to prove 70% of your salary from your investments, how much money would you need? When 70% Salary = 4% investments then your investments need to be 17.5 times your salary. As an example if you make $50,000 that means you need $875,000 to reasonably provide 70% of your salary.
But You Haven't Been Spending 100% of Your Salary!
If you have been saving 10% of your salary to invest before you retired, then you are used to only spending 90% of your salary. You shouldn't need a 10% raise when you retire to keep your standard of living the same! To keep the calculation simple I'm not including inflation either. This is the same as assuming that the only increases to your salary are cost of living increases. Since time is money and interest rates matter both are big factors to how much you need to save:
- Saving 10% of your income just won't cut it unless
- You start very early
- You get good returns
- The returns in this example are after inflation, so 8% is a very good return!
It's also interesting to see how much you contribute versus how much your investment returns contribute. If you get 8% returns the following graph shows the following breakdown:The It's the wonderful power of compound interest at work! When you start early not only will you contribute less, but you will live on more in retirement:So do yourself a big favor- start contributing toward your retirement today rather than cutting to the bone tomorrow.

(Cross posted from here)for in you my soul takes refuge.
Have mercy on me, my God, have mercy on me,
Have mercy on me, my God, have mercy on me,
I will take refuge in the shadow of your wings
until the disaster has passed. (Psalm 57:1)
This verse has special meaning to me because it helped me through a very difficult time of my life. I think of it now, not only for anyone who may be going through a difficult time, but for our brothers and sisters, Christians in the Middle East (Mosul, where apparently Christians and any sign of their existence are being eradicated from the city) and Nigeria, for instance, who may also be going through struggles we cannot even imagine.
Yesterday's lectionary reading was from Romans 8, about the sufferings of this present time not being worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us, and the creation itself groaning to be set free from its bondage to corruption when Christ returns to set everything right. I can imagine these Christians in Mosul pleading, "Amen, come Lord Jesus."
Have mercy on me is the cry of desperation. It was the cry to Jesus of the tax collector, of a Canaanite woman, a blind beggar. Of David, the Psalmist. People don't generally cry, "Have mercy on me" when things are going well; as Matt Redman says in in Blessed be Your Name, "when the sun's shining down on me, when the world's all that it should be…" No, people plead for mercy when they are in the deepest of trouble; when things are at their most hopeless. And here David pleads it twice.
But it is a reassuring verse. "For in you I take refuge…" How reassuring to know God – to know that there is a place of refuge. How hopeless would it be if we didn't know there was this place of refuge? How hopeless it must be for those who don't know Him.
We may sometimes have the opportunity to tell some troubled soul about this place of refuge. 2 Cor 1:3-4 tells us that the God of all comfort comforts us so that we may be able to comfort others with the comfort we have received
Where is this place of refuge? It is in the shadow of His wings. We can be confident it is an absolutely safe and firm place of refuge. What could be safer than under the wings of the Almighty, the King and creator of the universe.
The Bible speaks in a number of places about a bird sheltering her young beneath her wings – an owl in Isaiah 34:15.
In Matthew 23 Jesus laments, "Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing. Look, your house is left to you desolate.
Jesus longs to gather us under his wings, to care for us, to protect us; even those who, to this point, have rejected him. He longs for them to come to him in this way. Here is where Alpha comes in: People are free to choose or reject this offer, it is available to all, and we need to offer it to all. It's not up to us whether they accept or reject. But if they refuse this offer, their destiny is on their own heads. Jesus assumes no responsibility for their fate. He says, "Your house is left to you desolate."
The final phrase in the verse from the Psalm gives hope – "Until the disaster has passed" Not if, but when. – It will pass. We have firm assurance that if we take refuge in the Lord our God, the disaster will pass. Not that we can take this in a flippant or facile way. We can't necessarily be presumptuous. For some it may not pass in the way we wish or expect.
As Jesus says, rather paradoxically, in Luke 21: "...they will put some of you to death… But not a hair of your head will perish."
If we have put our faith in Christ, we are safe. The disaster will pass. As my friend and Alpha RD for Ontario put it this morning, The disaster will pass if we put our faith in the One who will not pass away.
Isaiah 43:2 - "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze."
Again, we may take these verses for ourselves or we may have the opportunity to be a comfort to others at some point. Not so much by quoting various Scripture verses, but by inviting them to come and meet this God who can provide them the ultimate refuge.

Jon Seal, Gilman
Seal, in his seventh season, led Gilman to its first Maryland Interscholastic Athletic Association A Conference championship since 1995, when the Greyhounds shared the title with Archbishop Curley.
Gilman was as technically sound as any team in the metro area and often outworked its opponents throughout the course of the game. With Andrew Harris in goal, the Greyhounds were able to shut down most of their opponents in the powerful A Conference.
In addition to the MIAA title, Gilman also had an impressive nine nonconference wins. The Greyhounds won eight of their last nine games, including four against opponents ranked in the top 10 of The Baltimore Sun poll.
"The success of this year's team was a result of extremely hard work and an unselfish attitude," Seal said. "Our ability to constantly want to improve is what made the difference. Different people all season stepped up and played a major role in our success."

International Airport has announced the introduction of a new 15 minute parking
zone at the Sydney International Terminal Car Park.
The new
zone will allow greater flexibility when picking-up passengers at Sydney's
International Airport, and will operate in a similar method to the 10 minute
free parking pickup zone that was implemented at Sydney's Domestic Terminal 2
last year.
The full
media release from the Sydney Airport can be read below:
Airport has announced that a free 0 -15 minutes time band has been introduced
at the International Terminal's car park.
This is a significant
change as previously vehicles which used the car park for less than 15 minutes
paid the 0 – 30 minute rate of $7.
The CEO of Sydney Airport, Russell
Balding, said that
the new free 0 -15 minutes time band would be welcomed by people who were using
the car park to pick-up an arriving passenger.
"This change has been made following
the successful introduction last year of the T2 Domestic Terminal pick-up area.
The initiative at T2 received a very favourable response so we reviewed
the situation at the International Terminal to see what we could do there to
improve the user experience," Mr Balding said.
"The previous arrangements were put
in place when the airport was owned by the Australian Government. They
did so for sound operational and security reasons: to manage congestion at the
terminal frontage.
"We looked at the existing situation
and are confident that we can make this change without any impact on the
terminal frontage. While the free 0 – 15 minutes time band has been
introduced, there is:
- no change
to arrangements for dropping passengers off on the Departures Roadway
- no change
to the prohibition of pick-ups on the Departures Roadway or the Arrivals Court
- no change
to the parking fees for other daily time bands at the International Terminal
- no change
to the fees or arrangements that apply at the Domestic Multi Storey Car Park
- no change
to other ground transport fees for taxis and shuttle buses
"Along with the recent upgrades to
the International Terminal, this new free 0 -15 minutes time band will improve
the experience for travellers at Sydney Airport.
"I hope that the NSW Government will
support this action by improving the availability and affordability of public
transport services to and from the airport.
"Only a minority of passengers, about
13%, use the car park. The majority of people use other transport options
including train, taxis, bus and shuttle bus services, limousine services and
rental cars. There are lots of transport choices for people to consider.
"Sydney Airport has been a long-term
advocate for improving public transport services to the airport and has been
lobbying the NSW Government to provide additional bus routes and to lower the train
fare," Mr Balding said.

Talk about global branding! As if KFC wasn't a globally known brand already, its bosses decided to blow up the founder Colonel Sanders' face all over the field in Extraterrestrial Highway in Nebraska.
19. Swastika Fields
No, it's not Germany. These unique Swastika-esque geoglyph patterns were spotted all the way in Kazakhstan. Although scientists would like to assure us that these signs have zero connections to Hitler's reign.

Most people expect the wildlife of Africa to look exactly like what they've seen on The Lion King. And this shot from Savannah basically proves them right. Just look at those elephants in their natural environment and tell us that you don't want to re-watch the epic cartoon right away.

Obsessive New Ownerwatch: Bankruptcy Approval May Come Quicker than Expected
The AP is reporting that the Tribune Company's bankruptcy judge has agreed to expedited procedures, specifically with regards to the sale of the Chicago Cubs. The hearing on the sale is schedule for next Monday, August 31, and the judge also shortened the notification procedures for motions related to the sale.
Taking care of this will require a second bankruptcy petition, so rumors of "the Cubs are bankrupt" may swirl again, but pay them no mind.
In the end, the expediency of the sale approval is nice, but was never in doubt. Given that two of the Tribune Company's largest creditors are also two of the primary financiers on the sale of the team, the sale was always going to be approved in due time.


text: Folks, I've learned a ton here, and I want to express my thanks to all who have posted. I'm still having problems with an RV042 running 1.3.6 Beta code (from this board), and I'll share them in the hopes someone can help or benefit. I'm running in DMZ mode. There are two servers in the DMZ. When I set the DMZ to subnet mode, the NAT ports can see the servers, but the servers can't get to the Internet. When I set the DMZ to "range", the servers can get to the Internet, but the NAT ports can't see the servers. Nice, eh? What's frustrating is that I did have this working once. I've even restored to factory defaults and started over. Right now, I'm questioning why I even need this thing as a DMZ, since one of the servers is fairly well protected by ZoneAlarm, and the other is a hardened Linux comm box (Clarkconnect). If anyone has suggestions, I'd appreciate it. If it rains this weekend, I'll expend a bit more time on it, otherwise, I'll send it back next week. Thanks! Mike
