When this is the image that defines the beginning of your NFL career with the Baltimore Ravens, things must be looking bleak for your future. In the case of safety Brynden Trawick, it came to pass that his days in Charm City are over as the team released him on Monday afternoon and replaced him with former Cincinnati Bengals safety Jeromy Miles.
In just three games thus far for the Ravens this season, Trawick has tallied three special teams tackles. The 23-year-old was a surprise addition to the 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but Ravens head coach John Harbaugh was impressed with the rookie's athleticism and his ability to cover kicks and punts.
So far, Trawick is known as "the guy who hurt Jacoby Jones" because he lost track of where he was coming down the field in their Week 1 loss to the Denver Broncos. He also called for a silly penalty this past weekend against the Houston Texans. It seems as if the Ravens were looking to part ways with him, and Trawick's performance in Week 3 was enough ammunition for GM Ozzie Newsome to rid themselves of his services.
His replacement, Miles, has 49 tackles in his four NFL seasons. The 26-year-old has been waived by the Bengals twice this year already. This would appear to be a special teams move for the Ravens as Miles led the Bengals in special teams tackles in 2011 and garnered the coaches' "special teams" designation on the Pro Bowl fan ballot that season.
Prior to suffering his hamstring injury, Miles hadn't missed a game dating back to 2011. In 2012, he tallied 15 special teams tackles, good for second on the Bengals. Before his recurring hamstring injuries bothered him in 2013, Miles had re-signed with the Bengals back in April and had played in 32 consecutive games before being waived twice by the club in three weeks.
Given the Ravens' struggles on special teams thus far during the early portion of the season, it makes sense to bring in Miles to spur this unit for the better.

Why am i not surprised that a massive street wear label like BAPE would re-release some of their classic pieces? From a business stand point it is a good move by BAPE, but in terms of value and exclusivity, it only devalues their brand and products. Never the less, it is still a pretty decent collection. There are 2 stand out pieces that i personally like from the collection. The leather down jacket and the sneakers. Hit the jump to check out the entire collection.

The next few posts will describe a linear spatial resolution model that can help a photographer better understand the main variables involved in evaluating the 'sharpness' of photographic equipment and related captures. I will show numerically that the combined spectral frequency response (MTF) of a perfect AAless monochrome digital camera and lens in two dimensions can be described as the normalized multiplication of the Fourier Transform (FT) of the lens Point Spread Function by the FT of the (square) pixel footprint, convolved with the FT of a rectangular grid of Dirac delta functions centered at each pixel, as better described in the article
With a few simplifying assumptions we will see that the effect of the lens and sensor on the spatial resolution of the continuous image on the sensing plane can be broken down into these simple components. The overall 'sharpness' of the captured digital image can then be estimated by combining the 'sharpness' of each of them.
The stage will be set in this first installment with a little background. I will assume that the reader is somewhat familiar with Fourier Transforms and go straight to the point, so if anything is not clear or correct feel free to ask for clarification in the comments below.
A perfect Lens: an Airy Disc
As an example I will use an Airy disc as the impulse response (or PSF) of the lens, that is the continuous diffraction pattern that a distant star would project on the sensing plane after having gone through a perfectly focused lens with a circular relative aperture of, say, f/16 and no aberrations whatsoever:
Figure 1 represents the f/16 Airy disc in the spatial domain for green light at an average wavelength () of 530nm. Figure 1a to the left is a 3D rendition; and 1b to the right the same image shown in two dimensions as it would appear on the sensing plane of a camera. Yes, the rings are there even though they are hard to see with a linear scale. Ignore pixelation and pretend that the PSF is continuous at this stage. It is computed according to the theoretical Airy irradiance distribution of a point source:
with the linear radius from the origin normalized for wavelength and relative aperture: , with .
A Perfect Pixel: a Square Aperture and a Dirac Delta
The pixels in our example are photodiodes arranged in a square grid on the sensing plane. They are perfectly square, with perfect microlenses and no Anti Aliasing or other filters. They are contiguous with no gaps, behaving as if they have an effective 100% fill factor . They are five linear units on a side and monochrome (for now). Their centers are therefore 5 units apart, which means that sampling (pixel) pitch is also 5. Absolute units are irrelevant to this discussion but you can think of a linear unit as one micron if it helps.
The continuous 2D Airy PSF image intensity above is projected onto the sensing plane where this sensor and its pixels reside. The left image below represents the 'continuous' 2D Airy Disc characterized earlier, zoomed in. Pretend that the left image is not pixelated and that its relative brightness indicates the number of photons that impinge on that portion of the sensing plane during Exposure. The image to the right represents the relative size of actual pixels of the sensor underlying the continuous image. The relative intensity captured by each pixel is the sum (the integral) of all of the photons from the continuous image that fall within its area (a pixel covers an area 5×5 the visible pixelation of Figure 2a to the left).
The operation of photon integration within a pixel is a convolution of the continuous image with the pixel's square area (also referred to as a pixel's footprint or aperture). It is performed by every pixel at its location on the sensor as it collects arriving photons during Exposure, thereby sampling by its aperture the continuous image at pixel pitch spacing for the extent of the sensor.
Sampling in 2D: Convolutions and Multiplications
So a digital camera sensor with perfect, contiguous square pixels performs two functions in the spatial domain in this perfect example:
- samples the image at pitch spacing at coordinates corresponding to the center of every pixel; and
- performs a convolution of image intensity over each pixel's effective area, its aperture.
In this example the sampling is performed at the very center of each pixel by a point with zero area, indicated above by a red dot; mathematically this is expressed by a Dirac delta function. The set of all delta functions at the center of each pixel as arranged on the sensor forms a rectangular grid of 'red dots' (a 2D comb or lattice).
Including our perfect lens we can therefore express the continuous image sampling process mathematically in the spatial domain as follows:
The sampled image is the result of convolution of the continuous image with the lens PSF and pixel aperture multiplied by the Dirac delta grid – all in two dimensions. The terms in the square brackets above represent the 2D impulse response of the imaging system as a whole (the system's PSF), that is the impact that the digital camera and lens have on the otherwise perfect continuous image that would be present on the sensing plane.
System Response in the Frequency Domain
Because of the Linear Shift Invariance assumption below we can Fourier Transform each of the factors individually and combine them per equation (2) to obtain this simplified system's response in the frequency domain. Recall that convolutions in the spatial domain become multiplications in the frequency domain and vice versa. And that the magnitude of the normalized Fourier transform of the system's impulse response is its MTF, so for this example:
The hat symbols indicate the Fourier Transform of the specified function, normalization to one at the origin. The three functions in our example are easily modeled in the frequency domain as shown below:
A) The Fourier Transform of the PSF of a perfect lens (the Airy pattern in equation 1) is
with the linear spatial frequency [1] normalized for extinction: . The MTF is zero when is greater than 1. is the same spatial frequency as in B) and C). It has no suffix because the resulting MTF is rotationally symmetric so the response is independent of direction.
B) The pixel aperture area is a square so its Fourier Transform is a separable product of linear sinc functions in the horizontal () and vertical () spatial frequency directions, with the width of a pixel which, being square, is the same in both directions:
C) And the separable Dirac delta function grid in the spatial domain gets Fourier transformed into a Dirac delta grid at cycles per pixel-pitch spacing in the frequency domain. Spacing in digital imaging is typically the same in the horizontal and vertical directions, therefore so is pitch:
All in two dimensions. So with equations (4), (5) and (6) we can model the performance of the perfect imaging system in the frequency domain. In the next post we will take a closer look at these functions, then simplify things somewhat by extracting and evaluating directional one-dimensional slices of the two dimensional results. But first let's get a couple of key underlying assumptions out of the way.
MTF and Linear Shift Invariance
In this article and the ones that follow 'sharpness' will refer to the objective quantitative spatial resolution information stored in the raw file of a digital camera, not the subjective qualitative version after demosaicing and rendering (post) processing. It will be evaluated through the familiar Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) of the imaging system expressed in physical units of line pairs or cycles per meaningful parameter (e.g. lp/mm, lp/ph, cycles per pixel, etc.). See here for a description of the various units and their typical uses.
The first assumption is that the imaging system is Linear and Shift Invariant (LSI). This assumption is needed in order to use the linearity and superposition properties of transfer functions which allow to break down a complex system into smaller pieces easier to deal with individually.
Linear means twice the intensity, twice the response: images captured in the raw data of commercially available digital cameras can be considered to fall into this category. Shift invariant means that the response of the system to a given stimulus should be exactly the same no matter where we look on the sensor. This second part is definitely not true in typical digital cameras because of their edgy square pixels and rectangular sampling grid. However, we can typically set up the system to appear to be shift invariant locally within a certain range of operation – allowing the measurement of its MTF at various key spots around the field of view.

This book describes the author's experience as a SNCO in the Glider Pilot Regiment in World War Two. Written from contemporaneous diaries and illustrated both with photographs and the author's own sketches, it is a superb first-hand account from a highly-trained specialist who fought in the airborne assaults on Sicily, Arnhem and the Rhine.
- Author:
- Victor Miller
The author, Victor 'Dusty' Miller is a brutally honest writer. He captures the various periods of a soldier's existence: boredom (it would appear that 'hurry up and wait' is nothing new), excitement, exhaustion, confusion, fun, fear and exhilaration. These are shown through his experiences in the first Allied large-scale Airborne attack on Sicily in 1943, his nine days under bombardment at Arnhem in 1944 and his part in the assault over the Rhine in 1945. During these operations, he is wounded, taken prisoner, freed, takes part in fighting patrols and platoon-level attacks, guards prisoners, loses friends, digs in (a lot!) and each time having flown a troop-carrying glider into action. This book captures both the first-hand experience of certain operations and the unique capabilities of soldiers in the Glider Pilot Regiment: well-trained infanteers, skilled pilots and both leaders (to troops missing their own commanders) and led (when forming up in their own sub-units).
All three operations clearly show the difficulty and confusion of Airborne assaults. Crash landing in the dark in Sicily and taking place in the chaotic fighting to get to and then hold the Ponte Grande Bridge (a critical objective) is described clearly and effectively as is his subsequent wounding and being taken prisoner. The next operation, Arnhem, is easier being in daylight but has graphic descriptions of crowded airspace followed by the intensity of the bombardment in Oosterbeek; his battle ends by being one of the guides back to the River Rhine for the night extraction – alone, frightened, wet and under mortar fire is not something for which I envy the author. His final operation, the crossing of the Rhine, is just as confusing and frightening; landing blind in smoke and dust and then going into an immediate platoon attack on landing. This is followed by a lot more digging in, honesty about his fears of indirect fire and a number of small-unit actions.
The book lacks wider detail of the operations which, counter-intuitively, works. This book is not an introduction to Airborne operations but a first-hand account. The lack of wider detail and the trench-level perspective provide a graphic description of how confusing a soldier's experiences can be and how demoralising this can be. The book also brings out the unique nature of the Glider Pilot Regiment, the only unit to take part in all the major Airborne operations of the war, and the subsequent high casualty rate, some 40%; the highest casualty rate of all the Airborne forces.
I recommend this book to both those with an interest in Airborne Forces and anyone interested in a soldier's-eye view of the fighting. It is keenly and honestly written and an excellent read.

San Francisco, California (PressExposure) June 26, 2013 -- Directors' meet was held last Sunday in the company headquarters. The propaganda of the meeting was to discuss the likely improvements that can be made in their Mail Migration Wizard software for better user experience of using this tool for NSF to PST Exchange email data migration. This software is mostly used in enterprises so it is imperative for the company to make further improvements into its use so that enterprise users attain more satisfaction with its use. It was a three-hour long discussion followed by lunch and evening tea. Along with the directors, the chief members of the software team including the senior quality analyst and managers also attended the discussion. Their inputs helped begin the discussion and led it into a meaningful direction. Many new features as suggested by users and the team itself were discussed openly with the senior members of the company, who then Okayed on some of those feature additions.
The software is a complete end-to-end solution for migrating any number of NSF files in bulk from Notes to Exchange environment. Users can migrate their data from NSF to PST or directly from NSF to PST Exchange by making use of this adept tool for this purpose. With bulk migration possibilities, this software is ideal to be used in enterprises by IT administrators. From email messages to their text, attachments and more, from contacts to distribution lists, from calendars to recurrence calendar and more, this software can convert all types of mailbox components with ease. Following high quality protocols, this software makes uses of state-of-the-art technology and incorporates advances algorithms for data conversion.
The chief director, software circle, says, "I was also a member of this official meet last Sunday. The discussion was very open and led to some very interesting decisions, more interesting for an end-user. There are positive chances of many new features to be added in this tool in the year to come. The software is likely to be updated in near future with many new amendments and additions. Whenever such improvements happen in any tool, it is first the user who gets benefitted out of it the most. I won't forget to mention our company's motto here, which is to attain maximum user satisfaction."

In times of war, our leaders often turn to acts of faith. President Lincoln famously issued a call to prayer during the Civil War. Franklin Roosevelt announced D-Day to the nation with a prayer. Today, President Obama receives a daily spiritual meditation. And the man who sends those messages is a Pentecostal minister named Joshua DuBois. He says he thought he knew what to expect when he first came to Washington.
JOSHUA DUBOIS: I had heard that Washington, quite frankly, was a pretty godless place.
MCEVERS: But what he found was something else.
DUBOIS: A lot of folks who were active in the public square, when they got back home, they took their faith practice pretty seriously, and that was illuminating for me.
MCEVERS: As President Obama's former head of the Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships Program, you worked with a lot of religious communities around the country. What did people out around the country tell you what they thought about Washington?
DUBOIS: They also shared the belief that God was very far from this town. You know, I remember sitting down with evangelical college students from Texas or Jewish seminarians from New York. And all of them would kind of look at me with bewildered eyes and say, you know, how can you be a believer in Washington, quite frankly? And it just - it seemed to them that this was a place that did not really open itself to people of faith and belief.
MCEVERS: In a recent article you wrote for Newsweek, you talk about congressmen, senators and other officials, people really in the public eye who practice their faith openly. Can you tell us about that?
DUBOIS: Sure. In the piece, we kind of profiled folks from different religious backgrounds who have a serious lived experience with faith. We talk about Senator Cardin from Maryland and how he practices his Jewish faith and the importance of his Sabbath dinner. And we look at Congressman Andre Carson, who's a Muslim American and does prayers five times a day in his office when he's here in town. And Denis McDonough, the White House chief of staff, who has a very serious Catholic faith himself. And so we just kind of peer a little bit into their lives, not their public proclamations, but their private lived experiences.
MCEVERS: You also write about a group of four officials - two Democrats, two Republicans - who get together and meet at a coffeehouse, right?
DUBOIS: That's right. It's a fascinating story. There are four guys, there's Max Finberg, who's an employee in the Obama administration, and Adam Taylor, who was a former White House fellow under President Obama. Then, of course, there are two Republicans: John Hart, who's communications director for Republican Senator Tom Coburn; and Ron Ivey, who's a Republican consultant.
And across these significant political divides, they get together once a week and spend a little time in conversation and prayer. And they share about each other's lives and learn about each other's families and really seek to bridge those divides.
MCEVERS: It seems like high-profile people in Washington don't necessarily want to make their meetings and their faith public. Why do you think that is?
DUBOIS: You know, I think there is a desire to remain authentic. And there's a suspicion that if they're seen as sort of touting their faith and their values or wearing it on their sleeves that people will think that they're seeking to gain some political benefit from their religious testimonies. And I think folks are very sensitive about that.
MCEVERS: Were there people who didn't want to talk to you?
DUBOIS: You know, I think eventually everyone was open to the conversation, but it took a little doing for some of them. I won't say who, but...
MCEVERS: Sure.
DUBOIS: ...I had to reassure that this wasn't, you know, just another recitation of their public proclamations on faith or, hey, Democrats are religious, Republicans are religious. But I really wanted to dig a little bit into their lived experiences, what were some of the interesting stories of their faith along the way.
MCEVERS: How has your own faith changed or been shaped by your time here in Washington? What have you learned?
DUBOIS: Sure. It has stretched and grown, I would say. It was a constant struggle, as it is for many people of faith and politics, to maintain your core values and belief when they're under attack. And when, in many cases, like in the course of a campaign, you're in pitched battle with someone else, you know, there's a temptation to go beyond the boundaries of what your faith says about how you should treat other people.
And so having to fight those battles, winning some and losing some of those internal battles, I think really served to strengthen my own Christian faith, as I think it has done for many people of diverse faith backgrounds in D.C.
MCEVERS: Joshua DuBois, thank you so much.
DUBOIS: It's my pleasure.
MCEVERS: That's Joshua DuBois. He's the former head of President Obama's Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships. He's also the author of the forthcoming book "The President's Devotional." It comes out in October.

Date of birth – 19 November 1986 Warrington, Cheshire
Nottinghamshire First Class Debut – 4 May 2010 v Hampshire (a)
In 2010 Steven Mullaney added his name to the small list of Nottinghamshire players who have scored a century on his first class debut for the county.
2013 was an excellent season for Mullaney, who, after stepping into the breach to fill Nottinghamshire's troubled opening berth, provided runs and solidity and was instrumental in the county retaining their Division One status.
He was also central to the Notts Outlaws' triumphant Yorkshire Bank 40 campaign, impressing with the ball and scoring well when needed.
A regular in all three formats of the game, Steven comes into his own in white ball matches. An outstanding fielder and punchy stroke-player, his knack of bowling a sequence of tidy medium-paced overs in the middle of matches has turned many contests in Nottinghamshire's favour.
The all-rounder spent this past winter playing in Bangladesh and Australia and looks set to continue at the top of the order for his county during County Championship fixtures, as well as remaining an integral part of the Outlaws' efforts in the one-day game.

Jen: Readers, please help me welcome Eden Robbins to Book Talk this week. Eden, will you please share a short bio with us?
Eden: EDEN ROBINS aka E. R. MITCHELL hears voices in her head. Her characters' voices, that is. She loves creating new worlds and complex characters that always seem to find their way into one sticky predicament or another. She enjoys helping them get untangled from these situations, only to find themselves entangled in love affairs that will last for all time. With the success of her futuristic Tomorrow trilogy and After Sundown paranormal series Eden is happily and firmly entrenched in the wonderful world of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Paranormal Romance.
Jen: Tell us about AFTER SUNDOWN: ILLUMINATION and where it's available.
Eden: The third book in my paranormal AFTER SUNDOWN series, ILLUMINATION is currently available as an e-book, but I'm hopeful it will be available in print by spring 2010. This book, as well as print or e-book copies of the first two books in the series, Redemption and Salvation, are for sale at a bookstore near you, online bookstores and directly through my publisher's site: www.cerridwenpress.com.
Jen: At what age did you discover writing and when were you first published? Tell us your call story.
Eden: I've been writing since I was in grade school, but I didn't know until after I graduated college and started a family that I truly wanted to be a writer. That epiphany came on the heels of the death of a family member. That death sparked an intense and undeniable creative motivation in me.
My very first story was Never Until Tomorrow. A book that later kicked off my futuristic TOMORROW series. I self-published that first story through iUniverse and was thrilled with what the whole process taught me. That story as well as two other stories in that series were later picked up by another publisher and re-released through them. The second book in that series, All Our Tomorrows, won a number of awards and helped propel me forward in my writing career.
The story that could be considered my real "call story", however, was the very first paranormal romance I wrote. A ghost story entitled, Yesterday's Promise. I loved creating this book, fell in love with the history of the area I wrote about-St. Augustine, Florida, and had a hard time letting go of the tragic, yet incredibly charming hero in this ghostly tale. I submitted my work via e-mail and within a week an editor contacted me and told me she wanted to publish it. I had made my first sale! I did the happy dance, of course, then floated on cloud nine the rest of the day, despite my family's curious looks.
Jen: Are there any other writers, published or not, in your family?
Eden: My daughter is a fantastic writer. She has the kind of voice that grabs a reader and draws them in right away. I've been supporting her efforts, helping her when she lets me (she's very independent) and am proud of that fact that she too has the "writing bug"!
My mother co-wrote a true crime story years ago. That was something she wanted to do just for herself rather than to pursue a career as a writer. Though she's not a full time writer, she's creative in so many other ways that I can't fit them all on this page. She's also my full time cheerleader. Thanks mom!
Jen: How does your family handle the time that you write? Are they supportive or disruptive?
Eden: It depends on the day, hour or minute! LOL Most of the time my family is very supportive of my writing and encourages me to pursue my dreams.
Jen: Describe your writing in three words.
Eden: Dark. Dangerous. Decadent. It's my tag line, but I think it holds true. I like to examine the darker side of characters, I enjoy putting them in situations that are dangerous and suspenseful and I can't imagine a story with a little bit of decadent heat. After all, what's a little darkness and danger without the spice?
Jen: Do you have any "must haves" with you while you're writing?
Eden: Not really. Well, okay. Coffee in the morning is a must to get my brain moving. Also chocolate close at hand as my secret stash and special reward for a good day of writing is something I enjoy. And more often than I'd like to admit I need to blast some hard rock so loud the speakers vibrate to get the creative juices flowing.
Jen: How many hours a day do you write?
Eden: As many as I can. I work a day job as well as being a single mom, so I write when the moments are available. That usually ends up being very early in the morning. A creative peak time for me, as it turns out, so that works out well. Generally I don't limit my writing by hours. Rather, I like to accomplish a certain word count each day to feel productive.
That method was recently reinforced for me when I entered the November 2009 National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) contest. Last month I vowed to write 50,000 words in one month. Over 170,000 writers entered this contest this year, from all over the world. Only about 3% on average each year reach the goal by the end of the month. I am very excited to say that I reached that goal and wrote close to 55,000 words by midnight November 30th under my new pen name, E. R. Mitchell! And if that weren't enough to give me a kick in the pants, that story, more than half way written thanks to NaNoWriMo is my very first attempt at writing an Inspirational Paranormal tale. I'm thrilled to be heading in this new direction, a direction I didn't know if I could handle. Now, after having completed that month long writing marathon, I know not only that I can do it, but that this new subgenre is the right one for me.
The annual NaNoWriMo contest is wonderful for anyone who wants to really push themselves to write a story, reinforce that they can write a story, or just help motivate them to get serious about writing for the first time or getting back into it. I loved the challenge and feel renewed in my writing because of it. The experience also reminded me that by just getting down a set number of words each day I feel productive in my career. What I write can be crap, but I always remember that crap can be edited. A page with no words at all can't. Please check out www.nanowrimo.org if you'd like to learn more about this wonderful nonprofit project.
Jen: What is it about the romance genre that appeals to you?
Eden: What doesn't appeal to me should be the question.
Jen: Do you do anything special to celebrate a sale, new contract, or release?
Eden: I love to celebrate with my family. When a new book comes out or I make a new sale, I share my joy with them and they support me with lots of love and encouragement. Okay, a little chocolate plays in this scenario as well, but can you blame me? If you can't eat chocolate then, when can you?
Jen: Who has inspired you as an author?
Eden: So many wonderful writers out there, so little time. If I had to name some-but not all, in no particular order they would be: Stephen King, Cheyenne McCray, Sherrilyn Kenyon, William Shakespeare, Patricia Briggs, Edgar Allen Poe, Jim Butcher, Jane Austen, Ann Rice, Christine Feehan, Vicki Lewis Thompson, Laurie Schnebly Campbell, Nicholas Sparks, Debbie Macomber, Dara Joy, J.R. Ward, Connie Flynn. Linda Style, John Milton, Sue Grant, Catherine Asaro, Laurell K. Hamilton… okay I should stop here. I know, I know I'm getting carried away, but you did ask. A well written story touches me. These authors, through their work have touched me in a such a way that I'll never forget them. They helped create one more step, one more inspiration to help me move forward in my writing career. Corny? Maybe. But absolutely, without a doubt, one hundred percent truth.
Jen: Do you become attached to your characters and have a hard time letting them go, or are you happy that their story is told and you can move on?
Eden: Generally I have a hard time letting go. I become attached to my characters because they've become my friends. I've had to make them my friends so I could get into their heads and write about them in a way that is real and true to who they are.
Jen: What do you do in your free time?
Eden: Free what?
Jen: What's next for you?
Eden: No. You didn't just ask that, did you? You did? Okay
As I mentioned earlier, I'm in the process of writing my very first paranormal inspirational. It's destined to be part of, yes you guessed it, a series called THE FALLEN. The first book in the series, SECOND CHANCES. is what I wrote as part of the NaNoWrioMo contest. I plan to finish that work, polish it up and get it published as soon as possible. I'm very excited about this new effort and hope you will be too.
In addition to my new paranormal inspirational series, I've also recently completed my first official Urban Fantasy entitled, GOLD: HEART OF A WARRIOR. This tale, also written under my new pen name, E. R. Mitchell is the set up to the beginning of a continuity series. It's a quirky mix of Greek Gods, demons, hunky immortal warriors and Pandora's Box. The lead characters in this contemporary story are none other than Pandora (yes the Pandora who opened that dreaded box) and Philoctetes, one of the Goddess Demeter's biggest bad ass Golden Warriors. If you enjoyed reading Milton's Paradise Lost, liked watching the TV shows Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Zena Warrior Princess and are getting into the fresh, new Twilight books and movies, this is the series for you. Everything from shape shifters to Aphrodite pop up at the strangest times in this tale, and believe me there's much more to come in that direction!
Last but not least, I've opened my writing up in a whole new arena. I completed a nonfiction inspirational work this year entitled, DON'T GO BACK TO SLEEP! under my tried and true name, Eden Robins. This "wake up and live" project was years in the making and stems from the Monthly Garden essay and newsletter I've been sending out to folks since 2003. This newsletter started out as simply a message about life that I shared with friends. Whether it was a lesson I had learned or an experience that truly touched my soul, I felt the need to share it with those I cared about. And in time they shared it with others. My newsletter readership has grown to now reach out to over 15,000 friends around the world. Some of whom have encouraged me to put together a compilation of these life lessons I've included in each month's newsletter. I wasn't sure where to begin in this endeavor until events and people I knew and had yet to meet guided me in the right direction. It was then that I began to piece together a part of my life and the multitude of experiences and life lessons I've learned into a true work of my heart. DON'T GO BACK TO SLEEP! is book that I hope will help to heal and inspire others in their own lives, just as it's healed and inspired me.
If you'd like a sneak peek of my latest works in progress under my new pen name E.R Mitchell, including a "taste of gold" please check it out at www.textnovel.com. GOLD: HEART OF A WARRIOR, is posted there as is a new, steamy, too hot to handle (and definitely over eighteen only), older woman and younger man tale I'm putting together and hope to sell to Ellora's Cave entitled, LAB LOCK DOWN. Also, I'll be posting a little tidbit of THE FALLEN: SECOND CHANCES on that site soon, so come on by, type in the title you're interested in at the top of the page in the search box and check it out. I've also posted a preface about DON'T GO BACK TO SLEEP! under Eden Robins at the Textnovel site. Please don't hesitate to let me know what you think! I truly want to hear from you. In fact, I'm interested in setting up a group of "pre-readers" to let me know their thoughts on my work. Interested? Please contact me at email@example.com and let me know! 🙂
Jen: Where can you be found on the web?
Eden: Please look for me here:
My website: www.edenrobins.com or contact me directly at firstname.lastname@example.com
Myspace: www.myspace.com/edenrobins
You'll also find me "Tweeting" on Twitter and "Friending" on Facebook.
And once again, you can get a preview of my upcoming books at www.textnovel.com
Jen: Is there anything you'd like to ask our readers?
Eden: Absolutely! One thing, okay, maybe three. May I ask three questions?
First, one thing like to hear from readers is what tales stand out in their mind. What kind of plot takes you away from the here and now as you're swept away into the lives of new characters and their stories? Can you give me an example of one of your favorites and why you like it so much?
Second, what would you consider an absolute taboo in the books you read? What is totally unacceptable in a story line, relationship or character and why?
Third, how would you define a hero? What makes someone a hero in your mind? And if you have a real life hero (man, woman or child) in your life, how has that person directly affected your reality?
Thanks so much for giving me the opportunity to blog on Booktalk. I've really enjoyed answering your questions and I hope to hear answers to my questions from some of your readers!
Just Believe,
Eden Robins

As a long time Cincinnati resident who likes museums, the Freedom Center has been on my to do list for a while. We finally went during a staycation, about noon on a weekday. To be honest, I was a little disappointed. Parking was easy, the building is beautiful with an amazing view of the river, and the price was appropriate.
You start with a movie made by about 3 different artists, but I felt the movie was more artsy than substantive. Also, I'm 5'3 and my knees touched the seat in front of me- I have no idea how taller people can sit in the theater. Anyway, my feelings on the movie pretty much sum up the rest of the museum- that the freedom center is more focused on art and acts more like a slavery memorial than actual museum that engrosses the audience in history.
The center does have a fascinating, reassembled slave pen and you can download a free app that will let you follow the exhibit along. But overall, I felt the exhibits lacked artifacts, interactions, and depth. Slavery is such a raw, emotional part of history, but I've been more moved and educated with a one hour documentary than I did with several hours at this center. Also, the movie about half way through has laughably bad acting.
No one but us and a school field trip were there. And from what I hear this museum has continued to take financial losses, only to be saved by the public and union terminal. Now I know why. Save your time and your money and go to union terminal.

Why this repository with print versions?
Textbook Equity ensures continued open and free access and availability of open educational resources by maintaining an independent digital repository and publishing print versions that are not subject to the limitations inherent in digital versions, such as restrictions on the the first sale doctrine, sequestering open textbooks behind fee-based systems, and marketing abuses of the Creative Commons designation.

These are resources unbound by many of the traditional constrains found with full copyrighted works. They eliminate the need for direct permissions, payment of royalties, or lawsuits.
What is the official definition of OER?
According to the U.S. Government:
Open educational resources (OER) means teaching, learning, and research resources that reside in the public domain or have been released under an intellectual property license that permits their free use or re-purposing by others.*
An open textbook is a type of open education resource.
Many open textbooks are created by independent academic authors who were not satisfied with offerings from traditional textbook publishers, felt the cost of traditional textbooks were too high, became frustrated with the idiosyncrasies of copyright laws, or supported an education system that fostered the freedom to spread academic ideas for the benefit of all.
Most authors use a Creative Commons license on their open works, or a customized copyright with specific uses defined. (See References)
What is the criteria of a truly open textbook:
- Content is free or nearly free. Free access.
- Easy to access using standard and open source or free applications.
- Easy to copy, parse, and rearrange using available open source software.
- Supplements that are really part of the textbook, must meet the same criteria and are provided under the same license.
- Meets attribution requirements specified by the open license.

I am selling my Nikon D3. Bought in 2010 and used by a professional sports photographer for the last 2 football seasons. Would be a great back-up body or remote camera or for a student starting out. Body does show some signs of use, but internal functions work flawlessly. The rubber on the base and CF Card Door could do with replacing, but willing to work with buyer on the issue. Price reflects use and age, looking to make a quick sale to upgrade. Please email me with any questions.

- "We're too big to fit in there."
- ―224 speaking to this droid and a fellow one.
An AAT driver battle droid was stationed on the planet of Rugosa around 22 BBY and participated in the Battle of Rugosa under command of 224.
During the battle, this droid drove an Armored Assault Tank and was part of a reinforcement squadron tasked with finding Jedi Master Yoda along with three clone troopers and eliminating them before they reached their destination. As the droids advanced, they hit an impenetrable obstacle, a giant tree blocking the road, forcing a squad of droids to separate and continue on foot. The droid was later seen with the rest of the convoy when they were attacked by master Yoda, who managed to destroy him along with his AAT with the use of his lightsaber.

Although harsh cleaners can get the job done, a lot of people do their best to avoid using hazardous chemicals and for a good reason. Much of the commercial cleaning products may cause allergy issues for sensitive individuals and children. There are several ways to go around them, replacing them with other products like vinegar, lemon juice and so forth, however this article will focus on cleaning tips with baking soda in mind:
• It's a good idea to keep a container of baking soda on hand near the bathtub. Whenever you take a bath you should use the chance to use a bit of the baking soda to clean the walls near your shower. You can keep your space clean and you won't have to deal with toxic chemicals. You won't have to clean your bathroom at a separate time, getting yourself wet again if you follow this routine.
• You should avoid the toxicity of bleach by using baking soda to scrub down your sink, toilet and bath tub. You won't have to deal with corrosive liquids or harsh, choking fumes while you work and the results will be pretty much the same in the end.
• You can sprinkle a ¼ cup of baking soda into the bowl when you flush your toilet once in a while. Give it a good scrub and then flush to rinse it completely. You will have great results without smelly chemicals.
• Baking soda has a great effect in removing mildew buildup on porcelain sinks. It can also remove and cut the grease off your stove, help clean laundry and many other uses not related to cleaning as well.
• There are many uses for baking soda, however most of them can be concentrated in the kitchen. Whenever you spill grease or you have grease splatters on your counters or stoves, you can sprinkle baking soda on top. Let it stand like that for a couple of minutes, then simply brush it off and throw it away without any resulting mess. You can also use baking soda for your kitchen sink, as it is capable of removing any buildups regardless of the material the sink is made of. Use a damp sponge with the soda and you'll have a chance to wash all that away and down the drain.
• The most important thing to remember about baking soda is that it is very good at absorbing moisture, so you should learn to store it in an airtight container so it will last longer.
• Cleaning stainless steel is very easy with a mix of baking soda and water made into a paste. Just rub it on and it will easily strip the grease away with very little effort involved.
• You can remove unpleasant odors from you home and your carpets by sprinkling some baking soda on it. Leave it like that for about an hour before vacuuming and you will see the results for yourself as all scents get neutralized.

|[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-8608) Add Configuration API for parsing time durations
|Thu, 19 Jul 2012 00:58:34 GMT
Todd Lipcon created HADOOP-8608: ----------------------------------- Summary: Add Configuration API for parsing time durations Key: HADOOP-8608 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8608 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Improvement Components: conf Affects Versions: 3.0.0 Reporter: Todd Lipcon Hadoop has a lot of configurations which specify durations or intervals of time. Unfortunately these different configurations have little consistency in units - eg some are in milliseconds, some in seconds, and some in minutes. This makes it difficult for users to configure, since they have to always refer back to docs to remember the unit for each property. The proposed solution is to add an API like {{Configuration.getTimeDuration}} which allows the user to specify the units with a prefix. For example, "10ms", "10s", "10m", "10h", or even "10d". For backwards-compatibility, if the user does not specify a unit, the API can specify the default unit, and warn the user that they should specify an explicit unit instead. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.

|Call for Papers
|Political Discourse: Multidisciplinary Approaches
|Political Discourse: Multidisciplinary Approaches
26-27 June 2015
University College London
Call for Papers
Political discourse has long been the domain of critical linguists on the one hand, and political scientists on the other. Critical linguists understand political discourse primarily as language in the context of politics, while political science understands political discourses as 'big D' discourse (Gee 2005), as systems of knowledge and ideology.
In the last few decades, however, linguists, translation scholars and political scientists have begun to take a more interdisciplinary stance, combining both approaches to D/discourse. In political science, the study of political speech and rhetoric begins to be seen as essential for scholars of politics, since 'the political speech is a snapshot of ideology in action' (Finlayson, Martin 2008, p. 449). At the same time, linguistic discourse analysts have begun contextualizing their analysis using political and social science methods, and argue that these methods are necessary in order to explain results of linguistic analysis (see for example Harris, Rampton 2014; Wodak 2014). This has also had an influence on translation studies, where cooperation with political discourse analysis is perceived as a necessity (e.g. Schäffner 2004).
This two-day conference will explore and debate the diversity of methods used to analyse political discourse in order to encourage the conversation between disciplines involved. It will discuss the merits and issues of different methodological approaches to discourse and explore which insights discourse analysts can give into the cultural dependencies of political discourses in a European and global context.
We invite papers from researchers working in all disciplines concerning political discourse analysis (linguistics, political science, history, translation studies). We especially welcome comparative papers on a variety of European and international political cultures.
Keynote speakers:
Alan Finlayson (University of East Anglia)
Ruth Wodak (Lancaster University)
Papers will be 20 minutes in length, with 10 minutes after each paper for questions and discussion.
*The deadline for abstracts of 250-300 words (excluding bibliography) is 6 March 2015. Abstracts and queries about the conference should be sent to the conference organisers, Geraldine Horan and Michael Kranert (email: firstname.lastname@example.com). *
Conference fees:
Full fee: £ 150- early bird (before 1^st May 2015): £ 125
Post graduates: £ 100 -- early bird (before 1^st May 2015): £70
Single day fee: £ 75 -- Post graduate Single Day fee: £35
Conference Dinner: £ 40

text: FXStreet (Mumbai) - The EUR/GBP pair trimmed gains to trade near 0.7007 levels after the ECB minutes expressed concerns regarding the inflation in the Eurozone. Offered at 0.7019 The pair was offered at a high of 0.7019 after the minutes showed the policymakers are worried the rebound in inflation is stalling. The pair has managed to restrict the drop around 0.7007 levels. The cross had spiked to 0.7016 after the UK data showed the retail sales fell faster than estimates in October. However, the spike was quickly reversed as the pair fell back to 0.70, before rising again to 0.7019 levels ahead of the ECB minutes. EUR/GBP Technical Levels The immediate resistance is located at 0.7024 (hourly 100-MA), above which the pair could target 0.7058 (hourly 200-MA). On the other side, a failure to sustain above 0.7002 (hourly 50-MA) could open doors for a sell-off to 0.6951 (Aug 5 low). For more information, read our latest forex news.
