THE AMHERST NEWS-TIMES. VOL. II. NO. 74. ISSUED THURSDAY AMHERST, OHIO, THURSDAY, JULY 2* 1M1. i/1/ Subscription Pries, 92.00 par Yssr 'Sandatone Cantar of the World" FAMOUS TRAIN PASSES AMHERST SEVENTEEN MILES IN ONE HOUR AND FORTY-FIVE MINUTES A RECORD IN THAT AGE America's moat famous train passed through Amherst on the New York Central tracks Monday morning shortly after ten o'clock, which waa a rare sight in that It waa the first train to operate under the now famous New York Central Railroad company ninety years ago. The De Witt Clinton la this famous engine. It was the first to carry New York passengers from Albany to Bchnectady. This trip was made In one hour and forty-five minutes and the distance was seventeen miles. The greatest rate of speed that this engine attained was thirty mtleB an hour. Because of the success ot this first train an excursion was planned which would officially open the Mohawk & Hudson railroad. This happened on September 24, 1831. The celebration of this new means of transportation was an event ot great importance. Bands and many people were present to welcome the excursion party. The event was so great that this old-fashioned train has been kept in remembrance of that time ninety years ago. Dave Matthe<v was the builder of this engine and was the first man to run it on its trial trip in 1831. The weight of this engine at first was 6,758 pounds, but upon remodeling it the weight was increased to 9,420 ^pounds. The train is only 65 feet and 9 inches long, which Is smaller than the large engines used today. The famous engine was 12 feet 10 inches long and the string of coaches, each 14 feet in length, constituted the first successful steam engine and train. The reason why many Amherst people gained the opportunity ot seeing this historical train was that the train la being taken to the Pageant of Progress Exposition in Chicago, July 30 to August 14. The engine which pulled the old train through Amherst waa also a great sight to witness, not because It ia so much different from the other common engines which are commonly seen but that It has the world's speed record of 112.6 miles an hour made in 1893. Thia engine has been In use for 28 years and is Just as good aa new. The De Witt Clinton, which has been In New York for aome time, has been viewed by millions of people. Amherst people had the opportunity of seeing this famous train in Amherst and those who -were unable to see it missed a rare sight. REINHARDT AUSMUS HONORED AT BIRTHDAY PARTY A birthday party was held In honor of Keinhardt Ausmus at the home of Mrs. Merlan Witt, of Forest atreet, Tuesday evening, there being about thirty guests present. The evening was spent in games and music. Mr. Ausmus was the recipient of many useful gifts. At a late hour a luncheon was served by the hostess. Covers were laid for the following guests: Mrs. Ouy Campbell and children, Dr. and Mrs. A. F. McQueen, Miss Elisabeth Ashenbach, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Ruth and children, Mr. and Mrs. Philip Brown and children, Mr. and Mrs. L. Cooper and children, Mrs. Cooper, Mr. and Mra. Ar- vllle Campbell and Mr. and Mrs. Oeorge Brown. All those present report a general good time. EXCURSION TO RUN FROM NO. 6 QUARRY There Is some misunderstanding about the train schedule relative to In' Quarrymcn's picnic, which is to bfJ held at Cedar Point Saturday, August 6. For the benefit of those who jre In question, the following train schedule will be In effect. Trains will leave Elyrla at 7:30 a. m. and will I -iivi' Amherst a' half hour later at I a. m. There will also be a train leave the quarries at 7:30, which will Join the train that leaves Elyrla at Amherst at 8 o'clock. The train re- .urnlng to Amherst will leave San- lusky at 7:00 p. in., and will break at the tower at Amherst. 'All South Amherst people are requested to occupy the last three coaches of the excursion as when the break is made the switch engine will pick up those last three coaches and take them to South Amherst. The other coaches will stop at Amherst and Elyria, where all that desire to get off may do so. In case that the train schedule is not yet understood the committee In (nurse of the picnic will be glad to answer any questions. In the past years the Quarrymen have had successful picnics and there is no reason why the picnic this year should not be a success. The Quar- rymen's picnic ia like an old tradition und should be kept up. The committee has done all that Is in its power to do to make this picnic a success and the only thing left to do ia to have everybody that can possibly go bo sure and be there. There are plenty of amusements at Cedar Point to entertain both old and young. South Amherst BONDS OFFERED TO AMHERST PEOPLE MOVEMENT TO SELL THESE BONDS WILL GREATLY HELP PAVING PROGRAM ALONG A week ago Tuesday the council opened bids tor the paving of eight streets and received bida so far below the estimate that they felt justified in letting the contract to The Ohio Engineering Co. of Lorain. The same company did the paving In Amherat several years ago. The bond market haa been poor for the last six months, due to the shortage of money, and becauae of thia fact the council was not surprised to receive no bids from the local banks and bond houses. It will be necessary, however, to sell the bonds before the paving is started, to comply with the laws of Ohio. The council Is desirous to have this work start and be finished this summer, for various reasons, all of which are for a better Amherst. Paving Increases the value of the property and also makes a street more attractive. The second reason is that the bid whUh they accepted la aa low aa can be obtained, and it la very doubtful whether or not a bid for a paving Job will ever be ao low in time to come. The third reason la that ao many men are out of work and the paving would put a large force of Amherat men at work, which would better conditions greatly. It Is certain that local labor can be hired aa the contractor haa already agVeed to that condition in the contract. The council saw fit to call a mass meeting at the town hall last evening, but to their disappointment only a few were preaent. The object was to put before the people the opportunity to buy the bonda that range from $260 to $1,000, and bear lntereat at 6 per cent. Mayor Smythe presented the matter to the Chautauqua audience laat evening and several subscriptions were taken. The council wants Amherat money to do the work and in return wants Amherst people to reap the benefit of a secure Investment The council will meet Friday evening, at which time committeea will be appointed to make u canvass of the town relative to the selling of these bonda. The bonda are gilt edge and there can be no better investment. By buying these bonda It will help to make Amherst a better place to live and also make conditions In Amherat better. HARVEY LUDWIO RECEIVES PAINFUL INJURY SATURDAY * iss. —S» ss.i Harvey Ludwlg, of Forest atreet, sustained severe injuries while at work at the quarrlea Saturday morning. He waa using a wrench in open ins; the hoppers of gondola cars when the wrench slipped, striking him on tho head. He was immediately taken to tho hospital, where he was unconscious for about eight houra. Dr. Powers, attending phyelcl.ui. thought that ihe skull might be fractured but his condition improved rapidly and the cut was the only seven- Injury. The wrench struck Ludwlg on the left side of the head near the temple which left a gash about three inchaa long. It waa necessary to take aix stitches to close the wound. It was thought that it would be necessary for him to atay In the hospital for some time, but his condition was such that he was discharged from the hospital Tueaday. LOCAL AVIATOR REVEAL EXPERIENCES HAS HAD MANY NARROW ESCAPES BUT STILL HAS LONGING FOR AVIATION Keinhardt Ausinus, who haa been In Amherst for about a year, haa at laat given the News-Times a little Inside lope on his experiences while in the aviation both during the war and at hu time It was a peat hue for him. dm 25f>/X'vK tddtje^fkr... •JjaaW1, f£'* -&*■ ' "• '■: '■=S4*--:-i, w '*?:<- , m& f % Tt { M.

The new plant will be the same size ua the one which burned and will employ about thirty men. It will be constructed ot wood. g. All equipment will bi new, ot designs similar to that used In the old plant. Practically all the equipment ot the old plant waa a total loss. The loaa involved In the fire waa over $100,000. While the new plant Is being built the work of the company will be turned out from plants Nos. 2 and 3 at Amherst. Additional men have been added to the Amherst plants in prder to turn out necessary work. It was just through luck that the Collins team was able to make nine runs.

It la going to be a big affair and you cannot afford to mlaa it. Mrs. A. M. Purcell and daughter Dorotha returned to their home In Cleveland yesterday after spending several days vialting frienda and relatives in Amherat. Jenne Jaeger ot Park avenue apent Tueaday in Klyria. He is twenty-llirdj-ears of ace, but the experiences which he has gone through might make one think that he wus forty. Evidently, the more he IV11 from his plane and was taken to the hoapltal, the younger he felt. Two years of his life has been spent In the hospital, due to falls taken while flying. At the end of each hospital areer he decided never to fly again but-the temptation was too strong and he again resumed his place behind the powerful motor. He has been asked the queatlon, j "Do you fear death?" many times and his answer haa been the same each time. He stated: "Yes, sometimes, but you are not dead unitl your heart stops beating and a mlaa la aa good as a mite." When asked about accidents which hf.ve occurred to htm, he hesltatet about telling them as people might think that he Is bragging, but he Is by no means a bragger. The accidents that huve happened are Interesting to many people and that la why he telle them. He haa participated in eight major accidents and many other amall minor accidents which have given him thrills that have not happened to many people in this vicinity. The following are some ot the stories he has told of his experiences. "One time we were wrecked out in the lake, my engine stalling und consequently falling into the lake. It wus ubout 5:30 at the time of the accident and we floated uround in the water until 8:45, when we were picked up by u fisherman out gathering fish from his nets." It is interesting to note that he und his companion were dressed In life jackets, which enabled them to float in the water until picked up by the fisherman. 'Another lime I was picked up in ;a take und taken to the shore, where life savers worked on me for about an hour. They were successful und once aguiu I wus able to get around and begin to think ubout flying some more." He has been In the air for over 3,000 hours during his experience in aviation, which in that time a good many miles have been covered. In the service of the country during the war he had but one accident and it proved to be the most disaatrous of them ull. The following la hla atory of this full: "We were up about 3200 feet when ull of a sudden the plane made a dive for the earth, the wires shrieking from the ureal speed. The zig-zag course of the plane in its fall gave a sensation ever to be remembered. My thoughts were on what would happen when the plane reached the ground. It would probably mean instant death. I thought of almost everything lmag- (Continued on Back Pace) The Amherst Cnau'auqua season, which opened last Saturday with a ;(Mid program and closed with the Knight MacGregor company last evening, wus a success as far as enthusiasm and high class entertainment waa concerned, but financially it did not prove a success. The deflcet, however, Is going to be covered and Am- herBt is going to have a Chautauqua next year, there being already over thirty-live signers on next year's contract. The probable reason why the Chautauqua was not a success financially was because of the unsettled conditions now existing. Next year better conditions are looked forward lo and the Chautauqua will be here again. From the opening day, with the American Troubadours and Klwood T. Bailey, to the last day, with the Knight MacGregor company and Dr. O. L. Kipllnger, thero was not a weak spot In the program. The American Troubadours proved to be nothing but ihe highest class of musicians and gave one of the finest musical entertainments ever heard In Amherst. El wood T. Bailey, In his speech, "All Aboard," gave his audience food for thought and many stated after speech that they could have stayed and listened to him an hour longer. Katbfyn White'a orchestra on Sunday afternoon gave a fitting entertainment for Sunday. John B. tlutto also gave a short speech during the course of the progiam. In the evening he made himself known to his audience us one of the greatest Impersonators on the American stage. His impersonations were remarkable and his speech In connection with them was a high spot of the Chautauqua season. The Lillian Johnston company and Thomas Brooks Fletcher were very much appreciated by the Chautauqua goers on the third day despite the unsettled weather conditions Monday evening. Tueaday afternoon waa devoted to the ladies and all those who heard W. D. Campbell benefited greatly by his demonstrated lecture. Words can hardly explain the sue cess of the comedy given on Tuesday evening. A record-breaking crowd was present and over forty adult single admission tickets were sold for that entertainment. The play was interesting throughout and no one went home dissatisfied. Perhaps aome found out that it is quite hard to tlel the truth for twenty-four hours under the circumstances given In the play. Wednesday, the closing day, was just as good as any of the preceding ,!..ys and was a fitting climax to the season. , The children benefited greatly by the morning sessions devoted to them entirely, being in charge of Miss Messner, who ably conducted the work. The committee and the superintendent worked hard to make the Chautauqua a success this year, und they are still at it. They realize that it ia one of the best things that ever came to Amherst and it is here only to make a bigger and better town. This year the loyal supporters of the Chautauqua were highly complimented by the superintendent because of the Interest they have taken In the work. The Chautauqua has been here every summer for several years and to let It drop ut this time would seem to be a step backward. SURPRISE PARTY FOR MRS. J. H. WE6BECHER Taking her completely by surprise, >he members of the Altar society of st Joseph's Catholic church gave a farewell party to Mrs. J. H. Wesbech- er on Tuesday evening at the home of her daughter. Mrs. K. W. I.ahift on Cleveland avenue. About forty ladies were present and enjoyed a most pleasant evening In various games and musical selections, both Instrumental and vocal. Luncheon Waa served, during which presentation addresses were given by Hev. Father Klchon and Mrs. Henry llodmann and a little token ot esteem and appreciation in the form of a beautiful silver candle holder wus given to Mrs. Wesbecher, who leaves this week to make her home In Cleveland. SILSDEE TO DE SCHOOL ARCHITECT WILL PLAN BUILDING FROM MANY EXPERIENCES IN THI8 WORK HIS NEW TRAFFIC COP AT PARK AND/CHURCH A new traffic cop has been hired in Amherst and he will be stationed ut he lntcrseji'on of Park u.tnue and Church street. He was bought by the lioard of Public Service and they think that he will be just the man for tho place. He is made of iron and can withstand the weight of twenty tons In case that he gets run over by some large machine. He cost $68. He ts Just here on trial and if he makes a hit in Amherst, more of the same type will be purchused und stationed at all intersections in town. The old dummies ure so high thut they were easily knocked over, making a great deal of expense in repairing them. The new man is less than a foot high and about two feet in diameter and flashes red and white lights. This is the latest in this class of traffic regulation and is being adopted by towns all over Ohio. it. S. Sillsliee, or Klyria, hus been selected by the Hoard of Education to work out the school construction plans to be voted on In August. Mr. Sillsliee bus hud a good deal of experience in school architecture. At present he has charge of the million- dollar achool building progrum iu Klyria and several other proposed school extensions in the country. The selection of tin architect is u mutter to which the Hoard has given u good deul of attention. The tlnal choice was made on the basis of plans submitted for the Amherst project. The architect is now working out a preliminary plan which will be posted In a prominent place before election day. In line with the policy of the Board to inform the voters fully re- gurding the needs of the school und the proposed method of meeting these needs, u pamphlet will be circulated soon, showing floor plans of the com pleted building. An extension to the present school building hus been decided upon us the most feasible plan for securing the room that we need for the money that Is available. This plan will enable us to build of stone - -a proposition that is very desirable in the "sandstone center of the world." To build a separate building of stone and large enough to accommodate the liig£ school und Junior high would cost considerably more thun the amount of the proposed bond Issue. Then, too, there are certain advantages that can be provided In a new building or an extension to the old building thut would be of greut benefit to the pupils of the grades us well us those iu the high school. Under the plan which is now proposed, the new addition will be used by high ichool und grade pupils. Tho completed building, including both the old and new sections, will form a very desirable unit for school administration. There will be better economy of time and greater convenience for the pupils In having ull of the work in one building. A separate high school building would Involve u good deal of travel back and forth from one building to the other In attending the different classes. An eastern city recently employed a group of educational experts to work out the educational needs of the (immunity: they employed an architect to embody their recommendations Ifl buildings; In going this fur, they expended the sum of $12,000. Then they found thut. by no possible meuns could the tux duplicate of the city be made to cover the coBts of their elaborate plans. Tho Amherst Hoard hus considered cureful'.y the ability of the community to pay in working out Its building program. The bond issue on which you will vote iu August will give our boys nnd girls a good school plant. It ■•.■111 let Amherst tuke the place which t ought to take among the communl- les well equipped for the education of their children. And the lax dupll- cute is lurge enough to take cure of the bond issue without any difficulty. It will take ut least a year to get the new building In operation. We shall need extra room to care for our pupils this year even under the crowded conditions which maintain at the present time. This is the time to get the program started. A vote for the bond issue is a vote for a better Amherst. MAN MURDERED IN CONSTRUCTION CAMP ALL DAY QUARREL OF DRUNKEN MEN RESULT8 IN DEATH OF PETE NUCI A quarrel between Haul Demsak and Pete Nik I, both of Akron, resulted In the death of the latter Sunday night, at a camp of laborers of the I»gan Natural Gas and Kind company, where both of the men had been employed.

A New Digital Generation – Corvette Homecoming
Andy Bolig
Car Crazy host Barry Mequiar is the Grand Marshal for this year's National Corvette Homecoming.
National Corvette Homecoming has just announced the reveal of their new website, www.corvettehomecoming.com to help them promote the up-coming event scheduled on July 25-27, 2013, as well as interact with fellow Corvette enthusiasts.
It was all the way back in 1980 that Corvette Homecoming was born from an idea by a GM Corvette engineer, Tom Hill. Tom had just moved to Bowling Green and was in process of setting up the new Bowling Green Corvette Assembly Plant, when he met a local businessman, Sam Hall.
The two men talked about Corvette assembly coming to Bowling Green and decided a local event would not only promote the new assembly plant, but the City of Bowling Green as well. Jimmy Greenway had just opened the local Chevy dealership so they approached him and asked if he would like to host a Corvette car show. That show was such a success that Hill and Hall decided to make it an annual event.
So, beginning in 1981, the National Corvette Homecoming was born and in only its second year, Corvette Homecoming expanded so much that it forced the move to Beech Bend Raceway Park, where it remained annually until 2002.
With its popularity again on the upswing, NCH was attracting some of the country's best show cars so it was decided to add a show strictly for the most pristine Corvettes. In 2007, the Sans Pareil (?without equal?) show was added to NCH schedule of events and has since awarded that prestigious honor to over 30 honorees.
Joe, Vera and their dedicated staff of volunteers strive to keep the Corvette Homecoming experience something for enthusiasts of all years to enjoy. ?This year is another special year? says Joe. ?We will be celebrating Corvette's 60th Birthday and we are hoping to have a ?53 model here for the celebration.?
Aside from the special events, Corvette Homecoming enjoys participants from all years from vintage to current models. Today's Corvette Homecoming hosts a variety of fun including a new Road Tour and dinner party, a souvenir program, local tours and other outings. See our current schedule for other details and mark your calendars for one of the Corvette hobby's oldest and affordable events on the schedule.
Whether you have a pristine vintage collectible, or just a plain daily driver, Corvette Homecoming has something for you. For years we have been known for our car shows, but as time goes by, we've evolved into a multitude of activities including interesting seminars and guest speakers, girl's things to do, local tours as well as our famous Road Tour and farewell dinner party.
Depending on your direction of travel, southbounders may find the Grand 'Ol Opry, Country Music Hall of Fame or even the Jack Daniels Distillery to your liking. Elvis Presley's Graceland is for the westbound. Those going North may want to take a slight sidetrack to historic Bardstown where Kentucky Bourbon is King and restaurants are endless. Make Corvette Homecoming a week of adventure you won't forget right here in the good 'ol USA!

Acclaimed Mexican filmmaker Dana Rotberg returns to the screen following an eight year absence with this hypnotic drama about love and revenge.
Set in a small village during the beginning of the 20th century, Otilia (Gabriela Canudas) is both blessed with a body that is the epitome of feminine perfection and cursed by an ugly mole that mars her beautiful face.
The juxtaposition between fabulous beauty and disfigurement proves unsettling for the villagers and she grows up friendless, save the family's hired hand Melquíades. Though most figured she would end up as a prostitute, she is married off to Isidro, the local police chief.
Cruel and petty, this ogre of a man brutalizes her and eventually infects her with venereal disease, rendering her sterile. With the help of Melquíades, Otilia takes a series of lovers to spite her husband. One day, the wounded Ruben -- a wanted outlaw -- staggers onto her doorstep and immediately she is in love.
Much to Melquíades' chagrin, she harbors and tends to the criminal as her husband is out hunting for him. This film was screened at the 2001 Toronto Film Festival.

Browser Pick: Porpentine makes Twine puzzly in How to Speak Atlantean
April 5, 2013 4:58 AM | John Polson
"Every day is a new chance to push back the toxic sludge society teaches us" is just one of my takeaway points from Porpentine's musical feminist body cyborg body repair Twine adventure, How to Speak Atlantean.
I'm still trying to learn how fully to process Porpentese, the wonderful language used in her games, but I managed to appreciate at least two interestingly crafted Twine puzzles of sorts that I hadn't seen before. One consists of repairing a cyborg body; the other requires listening to the music.
Porpentine: an innovator of words and Twine game design. I don't want to spoil any more, so enjoy.

The State Assembly and Senate end their legislative sessions on June 19, and while there have been significant accomplishments, there are also important matters that were either left unaddressed or, perhaps worse, only seem to have been dealt with.
Two examples of the latter — problems that Gov. Andrew Cuomo or the Legislature want us to believe are resolved, but aren't — are campaign finance reform and public corruption.
The way running for office now works, candidates fund their campaigns through a combination of small contributions from supporters, ask for large donations from the wealthy or accept even larger donations from those who seek a quid pro quo relationship — i.e., they look to buy influence in the state Capitol.
Reformers have long proposed a system whereby public money would be used to match what candidates raise directly from small donors. This would enable candidates who depend mostly on small contributions to mount somewhat more competitive, credible campaigns, and reduce, a bit, the influence big money has on the laws that get proposed.
But those who get to decide on any changes in how politicians fund campaigns are, of course, politicians. Legislators who depend on influence-peddling campaign contributions from unions, corporations or major law firms would be going against their own self-interests if they changed the system.
So instead, all Cuomo could accomplish was a trial-size effort enacted through the budget process: only one race, the state comptroller's election, will receive public financing. This pilot program is touted as a test, which, if successful — whatever that means — can be expanded.
The League of Women Voters of New York State said it best: "Unless real reform is seriously addressed in the coming weeks, this deeply flawed and inadequate faux 'reform' leaves New Yorkers with a government still susceptible to the corrupting influence of big-moneyed special interests."
The other big disappointment was the governor's termination of the Moreland Commission to Investigate Public Corruption, which had brought hope to those who want good, clean government in Albany. State politicians and pundits are promoting the idea that the commission was formed to coerce the Legislature to enact stronger public ethics laws. Cuomo said that once they did so, in this session, there was no more need for the commission.
That's fundamentally wrong in two ways. It's wrong because the laws that were passed do nothing to investigate current corruption, and take only a checked-swing swipe at future criminal and unethical behaviors on the part of our public servants. It's also wrong because, while Cuomo may say his commission was a tactic to force better laws — one that succeeded — the creation of the commission was actually his defensive response to loud public outcry over the dozens of legislators and other public servants who have been hauled off to jail and demands for anti-corruption action. Cuomo may have gotten new laws, but we don't think the public got clean government.
We're glad U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara quickly stepped in to seize the commission's files and forbid the Assembly and Senate from destroying any records related to the commission's investigations. We hope that Bharara's office can do what the commission members were prevented from doing and the governor and legislators didn't do.
We'll have more on Albany's unfinished business next week.

VFW Post 10281 in Vine Grove and its auxiliary adopted a Wounded Warrior family and made it a mission to ensure they had a magical Christmas, particularly the children.
It was done largely through the support of local businesses and individuals, Swope Mitsubishi, Janet Team ReMax, Wild George Trucking, Reiner Legaspi, Cindy West and Damon Bennett. This generosity helped provide children with gifts and the family with a Christmas meal basket along with other resources.
The auxiliary hopes to continue to expand its holiday program in the coming year. It supports the North Hardin High School food drive and Meade County Angel Ministry, among many other holiday endeavors.

Welcome to EC&M's monthly forum for your power quality questions. This month, Mark McGranaghan, vice president of Electrotek Concepts, and EC&M's editorial director, John DeDad address the topics of leading power factor and electrical noise.Q. We suspect that the rack equipment in use at a small data center with a load of about 90kVA and a leading power factor (PF) of .89 has integral PF correction components. These components work in such a way that when the rack equipment is lightly loaded, the power factor goes leading. Why don't all UPS systems seem to handle this very well? Are you familiar with any similar situations at other sites? What was done to solve the problem? McGranaghan's answer It's very confusing to talk about leading and lagging PF when you're dealing with loads like computer power supplies. The terms leading and lagging can only be used for one component of the true PF: the displacement power factor (DPF). This component has to do with the PF caused by the fundamental frequency voltage being out of phase with the current. Only the in-phase components of the voltage and current produce real power. The out-of-phase components produce reactive power, which doesn't do useful work.
The PF is leading when the current leads the voltage, and the PF is lagging when the current lags the voltage. True PF is the total relationship between real power (P), or useful work, and apparent power (S), or total power based on the voltage and current magnitudes. It's expressed by the equation PF=P÷S.
True PF is also influenced by the harmonic distortion in the load current. That's the most important effect for loads like computer power supplies. These loads actually have a DPF very close to unity. However, it's often slightly leading because of the capacitors in the power supplies. For instance, the DPF could be .98 leading. Generally, this isn't a problem for UPS equipment. However, when you measure the true PF, you get a reading like .7 due to all the harmonic distortion in the load current. The meter will say .7 leading because the term leading refers to the DPF component.
The bottom line is that it's unlikely the customer has PF correction equipment at its loads — they just happen to be this way. UPS equipment is generally designed to handle computer power supplies just fine. At least the equipment should be able to handle these loads — they're the most common loads requiring backup power.Q. We've been experiencing problems and shutdowns in our process control system. In discussions with PLC factory technicians, electrical noise and the resulting current ground loops are cited as probable causes. I thought our grounding system would take care of this. How is electrical noise generated and why does it affect our PLCs?
DeDad's answer Electrical noise is characterized by unwanted electrical signals superimposed on a useful waveform. Fig. 1 shows what a waveform with electrical noise distortion would look like. Basically, electrical noise is a repetitive voltage or frequency transient. Power electronic circuits, arcing loads like welders, and switching power supplies (usually associated with computer systems) are the culprits.
Electrical noise usually affects microprocessor-based equipment, such as microcomputers, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), gauges, workstations, monitors, displays, controllers, and data acquisition computers, because of the way these devices work — they operate sequentially, driven by internal clocks operating at millions of cycles per second. Instruction words are brought into the processor from memory and are then executed over the next few cycles. As each instruction is completed, the address of the next instruction is found in the memory. If one sequential address or the instruction it contains is slightly altered, the processor is unable to continue correctly with the programmed sequence, causing an error or halt to occur. It's this inability to tolerate any internal scrambling of these low-voltage bits that makes microprocessor devices so susceptible to problems from electrical noise.
There are two types of electrical noise: normal-mode and common-mode. Normal-mode noise, also known as transverse-mode noise, is the voltage noise that always exists between a pair of conductors. In a 3-phase connection, common-mode noise is noise-voltage appearing equally in-phase with each line-to-line or line-to-neutral voltage.
Common-mode noise appears between the grounding conductor (ground) and line conductors or between the grounded (neutral) conductor and the ground. The latter is usually termed N-G, or neutral-to-ground, voltage. Common-mode noise can destroy the integrity of low-level computer signals by driving stray currents through all the available grounding paths connecting raceways, equipment, and building steel. The result is a current ground loop through the signal circuit.
Fig. 2 shows a local ground loop where one circuit is directly coupled to another and is directly driven. The resistance of the section of the loop that is shared (RG) will determine how much voltage is driven into the target loop by the current of the source loop. Reducing the length of the shared part of the loop will reduce the amount of interference.
You'll find ground loops within a rack set because electronic return paths are shared. All too often there are no provisions for these return currents, so they flow on the only paths available: rack frame steel, bolted and painted rack-to-rack joints, safety ground wires, wireway and conduit surfaces, and anything else available. These chance connections are much worse than any rational intentional path would be. The inevitable system return currents develop voltages of mutually interfering noise over the high impedance of these chance returns. Ground loops are bothersome because the paths on which they flow are poor.

Pakistan: Musharraf advised to move to US hospital
ISLAMABAD (AP) — A lawyer representing Pakistan's former President Pervez Musharraf in his high treason trial said Thursday that his client needs to go to the U.S. for further medical treatment following a heart scare.
The development is the latest twist in a series of legal cases Musharraf has faced since returning to Pakistan nearly a year ago. It came as the retired general failed yet again to appear in court.
The lawyer, Anwar Mansoor Khan, submitted a letter to the court from a doctor at the Paris Regional Medical Center in Paris, Texas. The letter, signed by the Director of Interventional Cardiology at the Texas center, Arjumand Hashmi, asked that Musharraf be transferred to the hospital.
Musharraf is currently a patient at the Armed Forces Institute of Cardiology in Rawalpindi, just outside of the capital, Islamabad. He was taken there after suffering a "heart problem" on the way to court Jan. 2 after failing to appear at previous proceedings.
The judges ruled last week that Musharraf was to appear in court Thursday, but he did not attend the hearing. His lawyers said Musharraf is still not well.
The court now has decided to obtain a medical report from doctors at the Rawalpindi hospital to determine how precarious Musharraf's condition is, said Abdul Ghani Soomro, the court registrar.
Musharraf's repeated failure to appear in court and his admission to the hospital has led to speculation that he'll leave the country under the guise of seeking medical treatment abroad.
The high treason case stems from Musharraf's 2007 decision to impose a state of emergency and detain a number of judges.
Musharraf took power in a 1999 coup and ruled until he was forced to step down in 2008. He later left the country.
The 70-year-old former army commando returned to Pakistan in March 2013, hoping for a political comeback but instead got embroiled in court cases relating to his near-decade in power. He's also been threatened by militants who would like to see him dead for ordering a series of military operations against their strongholds in northwestern Pakistan.
On Thursday, a bomb ripped through a crowded Sunni Islamic seminary in the northwestern city of Peshawar, killing eight people and wounding 60, provincial spokesman Shaukat Ali Yousafzai said.
The explosion took place as thousands of people had gathered at the Tableeghi Jamaat religious school ahead of the traditional Islamic day of prayers Friday, police officer Malik Javed said. Tableeghi Jamaat adherents generally gather at the sprawling seminary and mosque located on the outskirts of Peshawar on Thursday nights, as well as Fridays.
Another police official, Shafqat Malik, said the bomb was 5 kilograms (11 pounds) of explosives stuffed into a canister likely set off by a timer.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack, but militants often have targeted houses of worship with bombs timed to kill the highest number of people.
Sunni militants often target mosques belonging to Shiite Muslims who are a minority in Pakistan and across the world. They also have targeted Sunni Muslims who do not ascribe to their strict interpretation of Islam.
Khan reported from Peshawar, Pakistan. Associated Press writer Munir Ahmed also contributed to this report.

Talking Rock on the Truth Brigade
Here's another gabfest, this time talking The Secret History of Rock 'n' Roll on The Truth Brigade. Again, lots of new material is covered including the decline and fall of Classic Rock, the corporate colonization of music, the grooming of pop puppets, the dark side of the Sixties and so much more. Two hours.

About the interview - It was funny talking about all the primal up-swelling in rock & roll music, and then hearing the softest of soft rock as the bumper music (CSN and the eagles, uughhh!)
Also - My first concert was The Doobie Brothers too. Probably in 1976 or so.
About backward masking - At the end of a B52's album, there is a comic psycadelic fade out at the end of a song. When played backwards (easy on a turn-table) you could hear Fed Schneider declaring: "Be careful, you might ruin your record player!"

I enjoyed this interview, like I enjoy your interviews in general, but it seemed like some of the blanket statements spouted by the Truth Brigade host momentarily flabbergasted you. That's not a criticism of you, because she had already jumped to judgement in all her statements.
That's a problem I have with a lot of people interested in the esoteric. They are more interested in the narrative than truth, and they automatically assign blame to any of the usual bad guys (the FBI, etc.)
I grew up in the 70's so I remember all the backward masking stuff. It was mostly matrixing, picking out words were none existed, much like the ghost hunters and their recorders do with so-called ghost speak.
I digress, though. I remember listening to Stairway to Heaven backwards, and it sounded like a mess, and then read what the band was supposedly saying. Suddenly, the recording sounded like Plant's reverse voice was professing all sorts of deviltry. The bottom line--clearly people make what they want of such things, and like many memes it's somewhat infectious.

Mike- Ahh, 1976. I saw them right after Tom Johnston quit. But damn- they kicked all kinds of ass.
Scott- Yeah, but you know what? - that's show biz. She has to entertain her own audience, who probably start to drift when you speak seriously on artistic topics. She needs to toss the red meat out to keep the advertisers happy. Maybe the producer was watching the traffic and told her to amp up the drama so people won't tune over to Alex Jones.

I'm sure you're right, of course. When making her statements, she may well have been rousing her 'base' of listeners.
So, I retract my criticisms.
I guess I do find it hard to accept that the FBI or CIA (I can't remember which she said) controls all the music made. I can think of a few performers, such as Neil Young, who work in the system but still control their own music and finances. But, I suppose they are the exceptions.

Last night, I was reading William Orbit's blog (a music producer) and found within the comments section a lady that has students with autism, this is some of what she says about how she uses the music that he produces...
"By playing the video, set to the upbeat (yet calming!) music, the students were provided with a fun way of what is known as "positive video modelling". This approach helps students with autism learn and follow routines with fewer behavioural difficulties or outbursts."

San Francisco 49ers defensive back Donte Whitner said Wednesday he's put in paperwork to legally change his name to "Donte Hitner."
A 49ers public relations official confirmed the action via Twitter while Whitner was speaking with local Texans media.
Whitner, 28, has 20 tackles and five pass deflections in four games this season.
The eight-year veteran said he takes pride in still hitting hard in the NFL, acknowledging there's nothing the league can do as long as he tackles properly.
Whitner added that Texans quarterback Matt Schaub must be respected on the field, pointing toward his first-half success against a strong Seattle defense last week.

Barnes & Noble Tops Customer Experience List
Jan 13, 2010
Elena Malykhina from Marketing Daily
Barnes & Noble is the No. 1 brand when it comes to customer experience, according to a survey released this week by Forrester Research.
Forrester asked more than 4,600 U.S. consumers about their interactions with companies across various industries as part of the "Customer Experience Index, 2010." Participants rated the usefulness, ease of use, and enjoyability of their experiences. Forrester calculated the results for 133 companies in 14 different industries and found that retailers, hotels, and
parcel shipping firms ranked the highest for all categories, while health insurance plans, TV service providers, and Internet service providers ranked the lowest.
The second and third highest-rated companies behind Barnes & Noble were Marriott Hotels & Resorts, and Hampton Inn/Suites, respectively. Amazon.com and Holiday Inn Express rounded out the top 5. On the other hand, Charter Communications, United Healthcare, and Citigroup, among others, were at the bottom of the list.
"If you step back and look, a lot of the industries at the bottom haven't had the need for competition in terms of consumers—including health insurance providers who traditionally competed for employees. Other organizations just haven't grown up in terms of being customer-centric," said Forrester analyst Bruce Temkin, who worked on the survey.
According to Forrester, only 13 firms had an "excellent" customer experience rating; 35 received a "good" rating, 40 got "okay" ratings, and 45 received either a "poor" or "very poor" rating. (See the complete survey results here.)

Let's talk about numbers. People love to make numbers say whatever they want. For example, number trickery has perpetuated the myth that the middle class pays the majority of the taxes in America. Famed fat cat billionaire Warren Buffett has made issue of the effective tax rate of his secretary, and how so totally unfair it is that she is taxed at a higher percentage rate than him.
It recently came to light that President Obama also paid 'fewer' taxes than his secretary. That must be what they're calling new math.
Numbers, especially when using statistics, can be twisted to say many things that don't fall into the category of Common Sense. For example, statistically speaking, if I have five children, one of them will be Chinese.
Here's a pesky fact -- the 10% of households with the highest incomes pay more than half of all federal taxes. They pay over 70% of federal income taxes, according to the Congressional Budget Office. How is it possible that the middle class pays the most in taxes when as a group, they pay less than half?
Anyway, in order to save the secretaries (or something), President Obama has been touting the Buffett Rule, which would impose a minimum tax on the nation's 400 highest earners. Apparently you can earn enough money.
As I pointed out last week:
Super rich people make money from capital gains and dividends, which they then turn around and reinvest into the economy. Raising taxes on capital gains means that rich people employers won't be able to create jobs.
Sixty percent of the public supports a minimum tax on the uber wealthy, because hey, why not? They already have enough money; it's time for them to spread it around to those of us struggling to make ends meet. Besides, President Obama said that this would go a long way toward eliminating the national deficit and reducing our debt.
Side note: Any billionaire that wants to voluntarily pay more taxes by donating to the government to reduce our debt (it's patriotic!) can go here and do it right over the internet!
Back to the magic Buffett rule that will solve our nations financial problems … Last September, President Obama said:
What I've said is this is a very simple principle that everybody should understand: Warren Buffett's secretary shouldn't pay a lower [sic] tax rate than Warren Buffett. A teacher making $50,000 a year, or a firefighter making $50,000 a year or $60,000, shouldn't be paying a higher tax rate than somebody making $50 million a year. And that basic principle of fairness, if applied to our tax code, could raise enough money that not only do we pay for our jobs bill, but we also stabilize our debt and deficits for the next decade. And as I said when I made the announcement, this is not politics; this is math. (Laughter.)
Math? That's some interesting math. As my friend Jimmie Bise points out:
The American Jobs Act, the bill to which the President referred in his speech, clocked in at $447 billion dollars. The Buffett Rule was predicted to bring in, at best, $114 billion, not in one year, but in ten. By my count, the President would need almost 4 Buffett Rules — or four times as many Evil Bazillionaires — to cover just his jobs bill if we assume that his plan stretched out over ten years, which it didn't. We haven't even gotten to the part where this miracle plan of his stabilizes the debt for ten years. How many more monocle-wearing, puppy-blending, orphan-kicking rich people would we need to get to that point? Hundreds? Thousands?
The Buffett Rule has nothing to do with cutting spending, reducing the deficit or debt, creating jobs, or anything else that the Obama administration claims it will do. This is a distraction, something to cover up the fact that Obama can't even get Nancy Pelosi to vote for his budget, or that unemployment numbers are going down because people have simply given up looking for work.
Nope, the Buffett Rule is a distraction. It is smoke and mirrors, an attempt to blame the financially successful people for stealing the nation's wealth and a way to reintroduce class warfare. Newsflash: Rich people get rich by creating a product or service that entices people to fork over their cash in exchange for it. If you don't want the Steve Jobs of the world to be rich, I'd suggest not buying things like iPads.
This post is part of a weekly conversation with our 5 Moms Matter 2012 political bloggers. To see the original question and what the other writers have to say, read Do You Support the Buffett Rule?

I hope y'all like this year's LeFlore County Gridiron Preview
It's always my desire to be different. So, when I was creating this year's LeFlore County Gridiron Preview special section, the first thing I wanted to do was have a different cover photo, and then some. I wanted it to be eye-appealing and catchy.Then, I wanted to add some things which were not in last year's LeFlore County Gridiron Preview. The obvious one is the story about the new district changes and realignments handed out by the Oklahoma Secondary Schools Activities Association for the next two seasons.I also put in what the local district standings appeared as when Week 10 ended in early November 2010, and the playoff scores in all classifications from a season ago.I also added five stories which I know you readers will likely enjoy — the season previews on Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Arkansas and Tulsa (now coached by former Spiro Coach Bill Blankenship) and a feature story on the Dallas Cowboys.It's my utmost desire that you readers will enjoy this season's LeFlore County Gridiron Preview. I welcome your thoughts. Feel free to email me at email@example.com, and I'll share it with my fellow co-workers.

Specialized have launched their 2011 mountain bike line in Keystone, Colorado, with an all-new Camber 120mm-travel trail bike, redesigned Epic, updated Safire women's model plus 29ers and a new Evo line.
The most groundbreaking of the new bikes is the Epic. While it closely resembles the 2010 bike, the 2011 incarnation is all-new. The front end of the carbon fibre frame has been reworked with a new top tube that drops last year's top tube/seat tube strut in favour of a heavily-flared aft section. This is not only lighter, but also simplifies production.
Specialized have also moved to a Pressfit 30 bottom bracket, citing reduced weight and compatibility with any cranks via adaptors. At the back, the top-flight S-Works model is unique among cross-country bikes, featuring as it does a 142x12mm through-axle. Wheel guides on the inner faces of the dropouts make for quick changes, while Specialized have come up with special Roval wheels to work with the system.
They've maximised the flange spacing on the rear hub by taking advantage of the extra width to move the cassette slightly outboard, making for a stiffer wheel. The new dropout/wheel system is called 142+ to distinguish it from conventional (although as yet rarely seen) 142mm back ends.
Part of the motivation for stiffening the frame and wheels was to improve the ride of 29in-wheeled bikes, of which Specialized have many in their 2011 range. In the 26in Epic range, only the S-Works has the 142+ rear end (although you'll now find carbon frames down to Comp level), while it's found across the range in the 29ers.
Specialized are making a big thing about the S-Works Epic 29, which is understandable given that it's the lightest full-suspension 29er yet built at 9.66kg (21.27lb). That's helped by the new Roval Control SL 29 wheelset, which uses carbon fibre rims to drop weight to 1,400g.
Specialized Roval Control wheelset
Oversized end caps at the front and wide-stance spoke flanges boost stiffness, with the 142+ rear wheel is claimed to be 20 percent stiffer than the previous top-end Roval 29er wheels. All this tech finds its way into the Control SL 26in wheels too, with a weight of 1,200g and even more startling stiffness gains.
While the Specialized/Fox Mini Brain inertia valve shock is still present at the rear, and Specialized's own E100 fork still graces the front of the high-end 26in bikes, the 29ers and lowlier 26ers get a new RockShox Reba S29 fork that includes a Brain valve. This is the first time Specialized have carried out this kind of development with a suspension manufacturer other than Fox Racing Shox.
RockShox Reba with Brain valve
You'll also find double-ring chainsets across the Epic ranges, a feature that's prominent in the 2011 Specialized range as a whole. With 10-speed cassettes available across the board from SRAM and Shimano for 2010, Specialized have taken the decision to use doubles wherever they can, tuning the choice of rings to suit the intended use of the bikes.
You'll find 24/38T doubles across the Stumpjumper FSR and Enduro ranges, for example. Those bikes see few fundamental changes. The Specialized S140 fork on high-end Stumpjumpers has retuned, although it now won't feature a Brain inertia valve. The Enduro's E160 fork has been fiddled with internally, while the 160mm-travel all-mountain bike gets a new custom Fox RP23 shock.
Rather than a choice of settings with ProPedal platform damping on, the shock has a fixed 'lots of pedalling' setting and a choice of three levels of compression damping with the lever in the off position. Super-plush rear suspension is a wonderful thing, but many riders favour something a little pingier – if you like to jump, a back end that doesn't swallow lips and launchpads is a boon.
Specialized's new Camber 120mm-travel trail bike
The Stumpjumper FSR's move to 140mm travel in 2010 left a considerable gap between it and the 100mm Epic. For 2011 that gap's been filled by the all-new Camber. It's a 120mm-travel trail bike (or 100mm in its 29in incarnation) that will occupy a range of price points starting below the Stumpjumper FSR range but overlapping with it – the top-end Camber will be more expensive than the entry-level Stumpjumper.
The Camber is similar to the Stumpjumper in terms of geometry, but in a shorter-travel package. The all-aluminium frame uses integrated hydroforming, with the pivot locations being formed with the tubes rather than being separate welded-in forged sections. You also won't find any Brain shocks – Camber is all about simplicity. The top-end Pro models feature a custom SRAM carbon double crank, with triples on the cheaper bikes.
Specialized Stumpjumper 29er
Big-wheel fans will also be interested in the new Stumpjumper 29er hardtails. With race wins at Sea Otter and TransGermany, and a World Cup podium spot, these may be the 29ers to convert an often-sceptical audience. They boast short chainstays and wheelbases and, importantly, low weight – the carbon 29in frame comes in at 1,049g.
That frame features hollow dropouts, a Pressfit 30 bottom bracket and takes a 27.2mm seatpost for extra comfort. All these features are also found on the 26in Stumpjumper HT frame, with a claimed weight of 920g.
Specialized have had an extensive women's range for several years, and there are several developments for 2011. First, there's an all-new Safire full-suspension bike. To improve performance, the Safire has moved to the shock position found on the Epic and Stumpjumper FSR, with the shock oriented in line with the seatstays.
Specialized Safire with in-line shock position
That presented a conflict with a desire for lower standover height, but one that was neatly solved by mounting the shock in a forged pocket midway along the top tube. By tucking the shock up inside the top tube, standover height is claimed to be the lowest of any 120mm bike. The revised rear suspension is optimised for the lower shock pressures used by typically lighter women riders, with different rate curves compared to Specialized's men's bikes.
Specialized Safire rear shock
The Safire's cunning top tube construction is also found on the 100mm-travel Myka FSR. Specialized's ever-expanding 29er range extends to women's bikes too, with a 29er Myka hardtail that, impressively, comes in a range of sizes to fit riders from just 5ft tall.
The Myka 29 features an 80mm RockShox Tora fork with custom springs
Having already appeared at World Cup races (and in various photos and videos on the internet), the 2011 Demo downhill bike will already be known to many. Geometry is carried over from the previous bike, but the new Demo is lower-slung, with a shorter head tube and lower centre of gravity.
Specialized Demo 2011
While the rear dropouts take a wide 150x12mm rear axle, the chainstays and seatstays are narrower for improved heel clearance, with wide, flat-pedal-friendly shoes. At 3in, shock stroke is slightly up on 2010 with a lower leverage ratio. The whole frame is also smoothed out, with potential mud-collecting pockets eliminated. There'll be no Demo 7 for 2011 – it'll be replaced by a new 180mm-travel SX Trail.
Rear shock detail on the 2011 Specialized Demo
Specialized's final clutch of new bikes is the Evo line. These are pumped-up versions of other bikes in the range – there's an Enduro Evo with a Fox DHX coil shock; a Stumpjumper FSR Evo with 150mm travel front and rear, a chain guide, wider bars and bigger tyres; and even an Epic Evo with a 120mm fork. As if that wasn't enough, there are less-is-more race-oriented Evo R variants of the Epic and Stumpjumper HT, with 1x10 drivetrains and custom chainguides.

2. Auburn lost to Florida State with 13 seconds left in the game. That cost me big bucks ($50 or so!) because had they won I would have won my doopid Bro-in-law's guessing pool! Would have been the first time in my life I actually won anything big.
3. However - it does give me a chance to tell a quick joke that relates to tomorrow's post:
Tony Bennett dies and goes to heaven. After awhile St Peter asks him how he likes it. Tony says great but he misses his friend Stan. Stan Fran. He wishes he could make one last trip back to meet him. He has a disco and Tony could enjoy himself there once more. St. Peter says sure - just be back by midnight.
Midnight and Tony comes back and there is St Peter. Have a good time? Tony says it was just perfect. St. Peter says got your robe? Yup. Got your wings? Yup. Got your halo? Yup. Got your harp? Yu ... uh harp? Oh Oh ... I Left My Harp in Stan Fran's Disco .... Heee Heeee ...

Apple is about to reveal its next-generation iPads and it's likely the devices will get the biggest update in design since the original iPad came out in 2010.
(Read more: What to expect at Apple's upcoming event)
The Cupertino, Calif., company is expected to reveal the iPad 5 and the iPad mini 2 at an event in San Francisco on Tuesday and it's expected that the new full-size iPad will begin to look a little more like the iPad mini.
"We believe the retrofitted iPad 5 will prove to be the most important iPad upgrade since the first iPad went on sale on April 4, 2010," said Brian White, an analyst at Cantor Fitzgerald, on Monday in a client note. "Essentially, we believe the iPad 5 will take on some of the form factor characteristics of the iPad mini but with a 9.7-inch display."

Business leaders looking for new sources of competitive advantage and agility are starting to embrace business design. And for good reason.
With broad applicability, business design allows companies to augment traditional problem-solving approaches with principles of design thinking to drive innovation. It provides a new way of looking at challenges, solving problems and understanding those they serve.
Many business leaders continue to confuse business design with other design methodologies. Once they dispel with four flawed assumptions, they will see its potential to improve the relevance of solutions they create, as well as the manner and speed with which they create them.VIEW THE REPORT (PDF)

Toronto Blue Jays
In the bullpen resides the Blue Jays' biggest question mark heading into 2013. Right-handers Casey Janssen (above, 22 saves last season) and Sergio Santos could both see save opportunities, but neither has proven yet to be a shutdown ninth-inning guy. Steve Delabar also has good stuff, and the team has ageless lefty Darren Oliver to get key outs, but the Jays likely will need their talented starters to go deep in games or leads may be at risk.
