Power-Packed Laser Fuels Contract Fabricators Growth
Lately, while continuing to develop and manufacture irrigation-system equipment as its bread and butter, Lindsay has expanded into new markets to leverage its array of manufacturing capabilities, particularly among agricultural and construction-equipment companies. One such relationship led the firm, in 2006, to acquire Barrier Systems, Inc., a manufacturer of moveable safety barriers for high-traffic
Faced with accelerated growth from its expanding business lines, Lindsay engineers recognized the need to significantly increase throughput and the efficiency and flexibility offered of its sheet- and plate-fabrication department. The company processes steel from 20 gauge to 0.75 in., while the CL-850 (5000-W) is rated for mild steel to 11⁄8 in.
"The new laser-cutting center provided just the increase in speed and thickness range we needed to accommodate the growth we were experiencing," says manufacturing engineer Jim Belzer. "The laser doubled productivity compared to our previous machine and allows us to cut plate to ¾ in. (compared to ½ in. before) and process plate that we used to plasma cut.
"The laser is much faster than plasma cutting, plus it gives us superior edge quality," Belzer adds. Plasma-cut plate typically requires post-process deburring or machining, adding throughput time, labor cost and more complex work scheduling. Meanwhile, the laser system's cutting head features AutoFocus lenses of 5-, 7.5- and 10-in. focal length. The lenses allow the focus points to be instantly adjusted between piercing and cutting, for optimal processing.
Robotic Welder Prevents a Downstream Bottleneck
For example, Belzer notes that processing time has dropped by more than half, when fabricating galvanized steel for irrigation-system control panels. Laser cutting eliminates hard tooling for such parts, which have a number of cutouts, he says.
Also helping to slash processing time is the addition of dual quick-change pallets to the laser-cutting system, which enables an operator to load and unload pallets offline while the system cuts work on the second pallet. The CL-850 features two 6- x 12-ft. pallets, compared to the single 5- x 10-ft. cutting table on Lindsay's older laser-cutting machine.
"Pallet change takes just seconds," says Belzer, "enabling nearly nonstop cutting efficiency. By comparison, we had to stop our previous single-bed laser to remove finished parts and reload material for the next cutting cycle."
Batch Processing Optimizes Material Yield
In all, the new machine processes several hundred different part numbers, primarily mild steel ¼ in. and thinner. Lindsay machine operators program parts and jobs, a process that begins by downloading AutoCAD drawings directly from the mainframe to the laser. Cincinnati's nesting software then is used to batch parts for optimum material yield.
"The laser processes four different material thicknesses in a typical shift," says Belzer, "allowing versatility of scheduling and enabling nesting and batch processing of common-thickness parts." MF

No unified networking with Fujitsu's bladed server - yet
FCoE coming
There is no unified networking with FTS's freshly-announced Dynamic Cube - yet. But FCoE is coming.
Yesterday's announcement of the BX900 by Fujitsu Technology Solutions showed that it supported both Ethernet and Fibre Channel connections, with Brocade and Cisco Fibre Channel switches being certified. There was no support for the use of converged network adapters (CNAs), the enhanced NICs that carry out the processing of Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and thus converge Fibre Channel networking onto Ethernet.
The BX900 does support software-initiated FCoE, but this is not the same thing as it means server CPU cycles are needed to create FCoE data packets. However, FTS has two initiatives which could bring hardware FCoE offload to the BX900. InfiniBand support is also coming to the BX900.
Jens-Peter Seick, FTS' SVP for x86 servers, said that FTS has an arrangement with Blade Network Technologies (BNT) for it to possibly supply an Ethernet switch with FCoE capabilities. BNT has a white paper discussing converged networking, FCoE and InfiniBand here (PDF).
Bernard Brandwitte, FTS' director of product marketing, discussed potential use of a Fujitsu converged Ethernet switch to bring FCoE CNAs into the Dynamic Cube capability list. There is a PowerPoint deck describing the kind of technology he referred to on Fujitsu's website (PDF).
With the BX900, Fujitsu has staked its claim to be a unified data centre system supplier, alongside, Cisco, Dell, HP and IBM, with Oracle/Sun still a possible runner depending on Oracle's intentions. Converged networking is fundamental to this and FTS does have an FCoE roadmap outline. ®

Well…At least someone in these here United States has the courage to stand up to the anti-Christian haytas and bigots!
The Southern Baptist Church, the largest evangelical denomination in the country – decided that it had heard enough racist moron talk – and lowered the proverbial boom…
From the Southern Baptist Covenant –
We further engage to watch over one another with brotherly love, to remember each other in prayer, to aid each other in sickness and distress, to cultivate Christian sympathy in feeling and courtesy in speech, to be slow to take offense, but always ready for reconciliation, and mindful of the rules of our Savior to secure it without delay.
Southern Baptists reprimand top official over Trayvon Martin remarks
The country's largest evangelical Christian denomination on Friday announced it is reprimanding one of its top officials over comments he made regarding the Trayvon Martin case, pledging to cancel the official's national radio show.
The trustee committee of the Southern Baptist Convention's Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission announced two reprimands on Friday for Richard Land, who leads public policy efforts for the Southern Baptists, according to the official press arm.
The first reprimand was for remarks Land – one of the country's most powerful evangelical leaders – made about the Martin case. The second was because Land lifted some remarks from another source on his radio show without using attribution.
The commission will move to terminate Land's radio program, "Richard Land Live!" because of the controversy, the Baptist Press reported.
In March, Land spoke of African-American activists and the Rev. Al Sharpton as "racial ambulance chasers" in the Martin case, in which the 17-year-old was shot to death in Florida by neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman.
"When there is violence it's going to be Jesse Jackson's fault," Land said on his show, according to the Religion News Service. "It's going to be Al Sharpton's fault. It's going to be Louis Farrakhan's fault, and to a certain degree it's going to be President Obama's fault."
On Friday, the trustee executive committee said in a statement that Land's comments were "very hurtful and offensive to the Trayvon Martin family and too many in the African-American community, including hundreds of thousands of African-American Southern Baptists."
"Damage was done to the state of race relations in the Southern Baptist Convention," the statement said.
The Religion News Service reported that many of Land's remarks about the Martin case were lifted from a March column in the Washington Times.
"As a Christian, a minister of the Gospel of our Lord, and as President of the ERLC, Dr. Land should have conformed to a higher standard," the statement from the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission said.
The statement went on to say that "plagiarism occurred because of Land's carelessness and poor judgment."
In announcing the planned termination of Land's radio program, the committee said "the content and purpose" of the program are "not congruent with the mission of the ERLC."
In a statement to the Baptist Press, Land – who earlier apologized for his comments – said he believes in "trustee oversight and governance" and that "this whole process was conducted in a Christian manner by Christian gentlemen."

New Hampshire State Legislator Hopes To Push Back Against Police Militarization With New Bill
from the legislative-trench-warfare dept
The militarization of law enforcement agencies is a worrying development. It's not necessarily new. Law enforcement agencies have been converting police departments into quasi-military outfits for years, most of it spurred on by the over-deployment of SWAT teams to handle basic arrests and take down ever-so-dangerous marijuana users.
The push has become a shove in the last decade or so, as the government has handed out grants to purchase military-grade vehicles and equipment, when not just simply handing over the keys to something like Lenco's BearCat to any PD that requests one.
Not pictured: any logical reason a town of 42,000 should have a bulletproof assault vehicle
A New Hampshire state representative, J.R. Hoell, is trying to push back against this and further separate our military and law enforcement entities.
Enter State Representative J.R. Hoell, a libertarian Republican who represents Dunbarton, NH, just outside of Concord. Hoell recently introduced a bill, the Police Equipment and Community Engagement (PEACE) Act, in the state legislature.Why is Hoell doing this? Well, it's because the city of Concord recently ignored its own citizens' wishes and allowed its police department to acquire a surplus BearCat.
The proposed legislation is now in committee. If it's passed and signed into law by the governor, state and municipal agencies in New Hampshire will be barred from buying or even accepting free offers of "military style equipment" for police use, except with the approval of the assembled citizenry at a public town meeting.
That prohibition would include not just MRAPS and BearCats, but also things like fully automatic weapons or anything that is not "available in an open commercial market."
Concord, NH has a population of 42,000 and has racked up three murders in the last decade. While its crime rates are higher than nearby towns (towns with populations far below Concord's), its rates are much lower than the national average. The Concord PD had a hard time justifying the acquisition of an armored vehicle based on local criminal activity alone. In order to persuade the city council this vehicle was a necessity, it had to conjure up an existential threat composed of anti-government activists.
In its application for the DHS grant to purchase the $258,000 vehicle, Police Chief John Duval listed the following potential threats to the safety of Concord, NH:
Groups such as the Sovereign Citizens, Free Staters and Occupy New Hampshire are active and present daily challenges…More non-specifically, he added that various "anti-government clusters" also "challenged" the police on a "daily" basis.
When the news leaked out that the Concord PD was seeking an armored dissent-suppression vehicle, the response from the public was overwhelmingly negative. Activists collected 1,500 signatures against the PD's desired vehicle and presented that to the city council. This led to open public meetings in which many people spoke out against the militarization of their local police force, including a very strong speech from a former Marine Corps officer.
In the end, nothing the public had to say mattered. The city council approved the acquisition with an 11-4 vote. Here's how they justified the armored vehicle's existence in a town of 42,000.
[Liz] Blanchard said she was voting for the Bearcat because it was the replacement of an older piece of equipment and would only be used for defensive purposes. She said in the wake of the Newtown school shooting and the Boston Marathon bombing attack, "we do need to be defensive."(Unless the Concord PD collates stats separately for the "northern" part of Concord, there were zero recorded murders in Concord in 2013 [and zero in 2012 as well] and only 20 robberies, which puts "recent" criminal activity at the same level it's been at for the last half-decade.)
Ward 2 Councilor Jennifer Kretovic called the issue "a huge civic discussion" but said the calls from her district in support of the Bearcat were "ten-fold." She said recent murders and armed robberies in the northern part of the city showed that it was needed.
Others stated vagaries such as recent school shootings and one council member expressed the sort of faith usually reserved for evangelical services.
At-Large City Councilor Marc Coen called the last four weeks "very interesting," especially as he researched the issue and read about the concerns of the rise of the warrior cop. But he said while there were problems in other parts of the country concerning police abuse, he didn't believe it was happening in Concord.The Concord City Council apparently felt that "listening" to their constituents meant just literally listening to them. And then thanking them for their input, patting them on the heads and sending them on their way.
Fortunately, a legislator is looking to use the system to fix the system. If Concord's city council is indicative of the mentality surrounding the acquisition of military technology for local PDs, then those opposed to this sort of thing are screwed. The best defense this group could come up with was conjuring up school shootings and citing their lack of awareness in regards to the local crime rate. Hopefully, Hoell's bill will push back against the US government's tireless efforts to turn our local police departments into ad hoc military bases, especially when the justifications portray anti-government sentiments as a threat worthy of a military-grade response.

Valve is well known for groundbreaking games such as Half-Life, Team Fortress 2 and Portal.
But the 16-year-old Bellevue game maker also is renowned for its counterintuitive corporate culture, one in which bosses don't exist and employees are encouraged to take big risks without consult. It sounds a bit like anarchy.
But it works for Valve, which has grown to more than 320 employees and now boasts profits-per-employee that are greater than Microsoft, Amazon.com and Google. Valve's culture of innovation and experimentation was highlighted earlier this year when its now famous "Handbook for New Employees" leaked out, a manifesto of sorts in which employees were told that "this company is yours to steer."
Speaking today at the Seattle Interactive Conference, Valve's Greg Coomer talked about how things get done at Valve when there's little structure and "nobody is checking your work."
"The actual career growth in an environment like Valve's is incredibly accelerated and it is something that allows people to make progress exactly limited only by their own desire and ability," he said. "When you spend time at Valve, you are enormously empowered and you grow a lot faster than if you were following a more traditional path."
At Valve, Coomer said that employees have the power to ship product by themselves almost without checking with anyone.
"That can be pretty daunting," noted Coomer. "Everyone is constantly making big decisions for the company, and deciding where we'll go and what products we should build and so forth. It can feel like an exercise and an experiment in cooperative leadership."
Typically, he said, when the culture is shared with outsiders the common reaction is disbelief. Some describe it as "new-agey" or a "recipe for political disaster" or suggest that there's some secret cabal that really calls the shots at Valve.
But Coomer said that's just not the case, even though at times he said it does feel as if they are proselytizing a set of beliefs that not everyone understands. "We are trying to learn to talk about it in a way that doesn't make us sound crazy," he said.
It does take time for both insiders and outsiders to understand Valve — one of the reasons why they created the handbook.
After all, Coomer noted that it does take time to figure out how to be effective at a place where there's very little hierarchical structure.
"There are attributes that other companies have quoted about themselves that they allow their (employees) to spend some fraction of their time actually deciding on their own what to work on, but at Valve that percentage of your time is 100 percent," said Coomer. "Every single person is responsible for deciding what they do every day."
Of course, that sort of flat corporate structure has downsides. For one, Coomer said there's no one to blame for making mistakes, and it is up to the individual to make their own success.
Nonetheless, employees at Valve are encouraged to think big, and take risks. That risk tolerance is extremely high at the company, a core principle at Valve.
"Three people at the company can ship anything," said Coomer. "And the reason it is three people — because really it is one person can ship anything — but the work gets better if you just check with a couple of people before you decide to push a button."
He added: "If we are going to hire these incredible people, and we are not going to put constraints on them, then we can't be afraid to let them actually take charge and ship. That takes a lot of courage and trust," he said.
UPDATE: A reader in the comments asked how a flat managerial organization like Valve deals with hiring and firing. Coomer addressed both in the Q&A portion of his remarks today.
Here's what he had to say about firing people at Valve:
"I wish that we had covered firing in the employee handbook. It was one of the things that we left out. And we tried writing it, and we didn't feel like we were capturing how Valve thinks about (firing) in a well enough way. It was almost a wording problem. We couldn't get it done in the time that we wouldn't to finish the handbook. The short answer of how we handle terminations, really, is the same as we approach all other decisions at the company. It is a peer driven process. If it turns out that we made a bad hiring decision, or that somebody is just not working out, there's a method we use to get the people who are involved in the same room and to walk through the decision about what should really happen as a result of this person not functioning very well. Some of the details are kind of boring, but the main answer is that it is peer driven, just like we evaluate each other as peers."
Here's what he had to say about hiring people at Valve:
"The interview process looks more like a collaboration and a work process…. It is a very real world kind of problem solving. It is not a lot about asking people what they would do in a certain environment, or what they have done in the past. We ask those things. But the meat of our decision making comes out of a process where we are putting people in an environment, even in an interview, where they are really doing work and watching them collaborate and pushing them and finding their limits."

Gonzalez did not catch that ball at all – and McCarthy probably should have challenged whether it was a catch or not. Might have made a difference.
Either way though, I hate to say it but from a pure football fan perspective, I love that Atlanta goes for it on 4th down there. That took guts and it was a decision made by a coach trying to win – and a coach with confidence in his offense.

Arizona's Immigration Law: Latinas Take Their Case to Congress
Policymakers may think harsh immigration laws go after criminals, but they are actually targeting hardworking, honest, good people in our communities who enrich our way of life and our culture as Americans.
This article was written for the National Latina Institute for Reproductive Health.
Last Thursday, three women and one girl testified at a jam-packed hearing in Congress on how Arizona's latest immigration measure is affecting women and children. Emotions poured out as the women and girl told their stories of detainment and freedom, racism and hope, family separation and community bonding. As reported by AP:
The partisan event was assembled by Arizona Democratic Rep. Raul Grijalva to pressure the Obama administration and Congress to overhaul immigration laws and to challenge Arizona's tough new immigration law.
First there was 10-year old Katherine Figueroa, who cried as she asked the Members of Congress assembled, "Please tell President Obama to stop putting parents in jail, all they want is a better life for their kids." She talked about how proud she was that despite her parents being detained by Maricopa County Sherriff Joe Arpaio, she could still make it to school on most days.

Then came 23-year old Silvia Rodriguez, who despite not having nationality documents, refuses to call herself illegal or even undocumented. She has been accepted to a graduate school program at Harvard and is struggling to come up with the money to attend this fall. When Illinois Rep. Luis Gutierrez called her the best example of an American based on her hard work and sacrifice, she tearfully thanked him because she had never been called an American before.
Another witness described the horrors she suffered when she was detained after the new law was passed and had to leave her toddler alone with his older brother. Finally, Silvia Herrera, an advocate from the organization Puente, testified that AZ SB 1070 is only the beginning. Pretty soon, she argued, more laws like this will be passed and we may even see an international boycott like South Africa faced before it abolished apartheid. She told many stories of Mexican Americans who have lived here for centuries being harassed by the police and even accused of fabricating their papers and later being detained.
While I was grateful to see that Rep. Grijalva was joined by Rep. Gutierrez, Rep. Judy Chu, Rep. Jared Polis, Rep. Hank Johnson and others, I was dismayed but not surprised to see that not a single Republican was in attendance. We in the Latina community need to ensure that our leaders from across the political spectrum and in every branch of government are hearing about what is going on in Arizona, where racial profiling against Latinos is now legally required by police.
These women moved most of us in that room to tears, but I want them to move President Obama to tears. I want them to move Republican Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer to tears. I want policymakers to understand that while they may think they are going after drug dealers and human traffickers with these kinds of laws, they are actually targeting hardworking, honest, good people in our communities who enrich our way of life and our culture as Americans. As many Congressional elections approach this fall, let us strategize about intelligent ways to make the Latina community heard, on AZ SB 1070 and other issues that matter to our community.

Earthwatchers explored the factors that have contributed to the decline of Grevy's zebra in northern Kenya and Ethiopia.
Have a question?
How would you prefer us to contact you?
By EmailBy Phone
Earthwatch researchers and volunteers spent years investigating the decline of Grevy's zebras in Kenya's Samburu area and providing key information for better conservation.
The current population of the endangered Grevy's zebra (Equus grevyi) is estimated at about 2,500, dramatically less than the estimated 15,000 in the 1970s. Since 2003, this project has studied Grevy's zebra in the southern Samburu area to monitor its population size and structure, use of space, interactions with humans, and the key threats it faces. We have also worked to help craft and implement conservation strategies and actions that will ensure the survival of this species.
Initially, researchers believed that hunting and competition for resources with livestock were the primary threats to this species' survival. However, we have learned that recurring droughts, along with disease and predation by lions, are the main factors limiting the recovery of this species. In addition, the impact of climate change is not clearly understood. The aim of this project is to gather information that will help to reverse the decline in Grevy's zebra.
The information we collected was useful to conservationists as they developed the land-use policy that helps protect Grevy's zebra.
This project provided critical information to support conservation of Grevy's zebra in protected areas, including Kenya's Samburu National Park.
This research project increased understanding of the basic ecology of Grevy's zebra, offering insights as to why their population has not expanded after hunting has ceased. By working with local communities and enlisting their support in gathering environmental data, we were able to share data on movements, aggregations, the impact of grazing on habitat, and the nature of livestock¬–wildlife interactions.
The information we collected was useful to conservationists as they developed the land-use policy that helps protect Grevy's zebra and stimulate economic development in sustainable ways. In addition, the Kenya Wildlife Service, which oversees all aspects of wildlife conservation in Kenya, integrated the project's findings with those of studies they are likely to undertake on Grevy's zebra in protected areas. Drs. Paul Muoria and Nick Oguge are members of the National Grevy's Zebra Technical Committee, which is charged with advising the Kenya Wildlife Service on conservation.
The stripes of a Grevy's zebra can be used to identify individual animals.
This project has already had an impact on a local level. Many area conservation managers, teachers, and university students have gained training and work experience through internships and other field research opportunities with the project.
The Wamba area is in the Samburu East District of Kenya. Wamba is communally owned, and the nomadic Samburu pastoralists, their livestock, and wild animals live in close proximity. The area is rich in wildlife in addition to Grevy's zebra, including elephant, gerenuk and various other antelopes, cheetah, lion, leopard, hyena, wild dog, birds, and an array of invertebrates. There are no fences to keep wildlife within certain areas, and human–wildlife conflict over critical resources (water, food, etc.) contributes to a greater dispersal of wildlife. However, there are several wildlife reserves and conservation areas in the vicinity.
The town of Wamba is one of the larger population centers in Samburu and has been the base for Earthwatch operations since 2003. Wamba is a rural town with almost no tourism, although many tourists visit the nearby reserves. The people in and around Wamba live the traditional lifestyle of the Samburu people.
This is a summary:
Earthwatch scientists provided volunteers with training so that they could undertake the following activities in the field:
Conducting censuses of Grevy's zebra, other wild animals, and livestock. Volunteers helped in collecting animal census data. Volunteers also helped take photographs to identify individual zebras, monitor the movements of zebras from tracks or from sightings, and record GPS locations. In addition, they recorded any sightings of predators they encountered.
Monitoring environmental conditions and resource availability. Rainfall and temperature were recorded daily at Wamba, collected from local communities and other sites when appropriate. Volunteers assisted with counting and measuring the size of erosion gullies, recording the abundance and frequency of zebra food plants, and estimating the abundance of invasive plants.
Data entry. Each volunteer entered and summarized the data he or she collected each day. Depending on the interest of individual volunteers, they may have participated in data analysis.
During their recreational day, volunteers had the option of taking part in cultural activities, visiting Samburu homesteads or schools, visiting Samburu National Park, hiking the Matthews Range, or resting at the project headquarters.
Volunteers helped to conduct censuses of Grevy's zebra.
Research was shared with Samburu communities to improve management practices in reserves.
Earthwatch scientist Dr. Paul Muoria investigates the status, needs, and ecology of Kenya's baboons, elephants, mangabeys, colobus monkeys, and Grevy's zebras.
Camp consists of several simple buildings erected on a large clearing in Budongo Forest. You'll stay in a single room that contains a bed, beddings, mosquito net, reading desk and a chair. All rooms are connected to solar electricity. There are three pit latrines on site which are shared by all. You'll have access to a warm shower, every evening after a long day's work. Water used at camp is harvested off the roofs or taken from the Sonso River so frugal use is necessary.
Evening meals are prepared by cooks who will prepare dishes including rice, chapati, potatoes, spaghetti, beans, beef, fish, ground nuts (peanuts), cow peas, assorted fresh vegetables and fruits, eggs. There are other local foods such as cassava, stewed bananas (locally known as matooke) and maize bread (locally known as ugali or posho). Breakfast will be western style.

text: TheSkeletonMan939 Report post Posted November 4, 2012 (edited) I know what you're thinking: What the heck? Didn't Skelly already post an entry? Why does he have two? Is TheSkeletonMan939... a cheater? In a word, no. After some oversights by bonesii and myself on my previous entry, I was allowed a second chance. If you want to learn more go here. First KillAlone, Naho looked out to the protodermis falls of Ga-Metru, lost in reflection. Beautiful, she thought. Back home she had never been privileged with this sort of structure. Metru Nui Matoran were spoiled. She heard footsteps and glanced behind her shoulder. Kodan the Chronicler was making his way towards her, a sack of tablets on his back. "I prefer Po-Metru," Kodan said immediately. "I work better in loud conditions." "I think better in quiet ones," Naho replied. "Need a seat?" Kodan pulled up a nearby crate on his own and produced a tablet and writing utensil from his sack. "Now," he said indifferently, "How did you become a Toa?" Naho sighed and looked out to the falls. She spoke softly. ***I hail from the Tren Krom Peninsula, a part of the Northern Continent. While other peoples of the island were more bellicose in nature, my village was more intrigued on the arts and sciences. I was a scientist myself. I enjoyed learning new things, using my mind to work out nature's little puzzles created by the Great Beings. As a Matoran, I was never a convivial or at all social person. I preferred to keep to myself as opposed to going out there and making a name for myself. Subsequently, I never knew anyone especially well beyond my lab partners. But I did know there was an Onu-Matoran in my village who often traveled abroad to places like Stelt, Xia and Metru Nui. He and I had set up an arrangement that he bring back an exotic type of plant that I believed had intriguing medicinal value, called a harakeke. I made my way to his hut one morning, curious about the strange little plant. I rapped on his door and looked down at my feet, waiting for it to open. Several seconds went by, and I knocked again. Several seconds later, I knocked a third time. No answer. I let myself in. "Hello?" I called. "It's Na - "I stopped in my tracks. The Onu-Matoran was sitting against the wall, his cold eyes staring right into mine. He looked chilling. I slowly inched towards him, asking if he was all right. I stretched a hand out and poked him. He slid sideways onto his chest, revealing a thick blade thrust into his back. This Matoran was dead. I jumped back. I was scared. A pit formed in my stomach. I couldn't breath. What if the killer was still here? Was he going to kill me? Maybe he was all right, I though. Maybe he was just asleep. I shook the Onu-Matoran and hit him, trying to get him to wake up. He wouldn't. A Le-Matoran poked his head in, probably hoping to see the Matoran as well. "Oh, hi Naho…," he began, his voice trailing off. He walked over to where I knelt, crying. "Mata Nui," he said quietly. He turned to me, looked at the body, and back to me. "Listen to me, Naho," the Le-Matoran said. "I'm going to get the Turaga. I'm going to tell him what's happened. Everything will be all right." I nodded. I was scared. I'd never seen someone dead before. Why was this happening? I wondered. *** The Turaga was of the element of Earth, and wore a Noble Garai. His Badge of Office was a staff with an odd stone on top. He used it more as a cane due to a limp he received in his Toa years. Oddly enough, we never knew his name – he was just "the Turaga" to us. The service was short. He explained the situation to the village gravely, without suppressing the gravity of the situation. This was ridiculous, I thought. We were going to be hiding in fear while the killer got away scot-free. I wanted to see him suffer for what he'd done. I wanted to see his body mutilated in the most painful, distressing, ad agonizing way. He deserved it. There was only one person I knew who'd agree with me. *** "No," Mazeka said with a slight chuckle. "This guy means business. He isn't going to be taken down by you or me. This isn't someone we can just fight like that." "Is that what you really think?" I asked. Mazeka often acted rude and dismissive to everyone, but I knew deep down he had a firm sense of justice and morality. If I reached that part of him, he was with me for sure. Mazeka put down the piece of limestone he's been working with, and sighed. He looked up at me and asked, "Have you got a lead?" "Well," I said slowly, "he had a… a knife in his back." The image flashed before my eyes. I could picture those dead unseeing eyes… I could almost feel the cold hands… "That's not a lead," Mazeka replied. "That's useless. Was his hut messy?" "No," I replied. "It actually looked very tidy." "Then he had no time to react to the killer's stab. There was no fight. And where was the body?" I took a deep breath and said, "Against the wall. Almost like he was… put there." "Okay," Mazeka said, picking up an odd machine from a pile of junk in the corner. "When did I make this?" he asked himself. He turned to me and said, "You're right. He probably didn't crawl over there himself. The killer most likely put him there to ask questions… or something. Maybe just to get him out of the way." Mazeka had this talent of insight about him. He thought with intense logic, which made him a good investigator of sorts. "Now," he continued, "we can propose that the motive was to steal something. Maybe something the Onu-Matoran brought back from an exotic land? Who knows exactly what?" I scratched the back of my head and said casually, "Well, the Turaga forced him to always make an inventory of what he brought back. You know, to make sure it wasn't anything bad -" "That's right," Mazeka interrupted. "He got his hands on something valuable, and someone wanted it badly. Except… we can't let on to anyone that we're doing this… investigating the situation." "Why not?" I asked. "We'll need all the help we can get." "Naho," Mazeka said darkly. "He'd only been back one day when he was murdered. No one outside this village could have possibly known he'd returned." A dark thought crept into my head. "No," I said. "Absolutely not." "I think that's the way it is," Mazeka said. "Someone in this village is the killer." *** I didn't sleep well that night. Someone I knew was a killer. A disturbing, hate-filled murderer. But maybe it was the other way around. Maybe the dead Onu-Matoran deserved it. Maybe he was a pirate who stole things from the lands he traveled to. When all was said and done, who was the real victim? Mazeka and I had planned to approach the Turaga the next day. We both knew it wouldn't go over well with him. He made over-the-top efforts to keep us safe from harm; the reason the village was so far from trouble was because so many years ago he made us all relocate to a safer and remote area. I had vague memories of our earlier home – they weren't good ones. I had to come up with an argument against the Turaga if it turned out to be the anticipated worst-case scenario. *** "Absolutely not!" the Turaga said in an exasperated tone. "Elaborate," Mazeka said calmly. "Please." We were alone with the Turaga in his hut. In was clean and orderly – just like the Turaga himself. "I've already got one dead – I don't need two of my top scientists gone as well," the Turaga said. "I wish there was something I could do, but - " "But what?" I interrupted. "Someone killed my friend and got away with it. Someone in this village has killed another living being." The Turaga's eyes widened. "You can't tell anyone that. I've worked far too hard for this whole village's peace of mind to be compromised by one thug." "Turaga," I said quietly. "We can help. We can stop this." "No," the Turaga said. "No, it's my job. It's my job to protect you all, my job to find the evil, rotten killer who… who…" "You've done so much for us," I continued. "Thank you for that. But it's our turn now." *** In the end, he gave us the inventory, and his blessing. It was filled with odd items I'd never seen or heard of before, but Mazeka had some knowledge of these things. "I think he kept just about everything he brought back," Mazeka said. "As souvenirs, I guess. And looking at this stuff, I think we have a motive." I looked up at Mazeka. "What? How?" "Some of the stuff on this list looks quite rare," Mazeka said. "Look at this – he brought back weapons." "Do you think we should talk to Vultraz about this? The weapons?" I asked. Vultraz was an engineer in our village who knew everything about machines. He could tell you how something worked, why it worked, or why it refused to turn on. "No," Mazeka said. "No, just the two of us is fine. I don't want to drag more people into this. It'd undermine our creative control." It took me a moment to understand that Mazeka had just told a joke, bad as it was. He never joked. Maybe getting all this fresh air and staying away from his lab for so long was changing him for the better. "Will we be allowed into the hut?" I asked. "I mean, it is a crime scene…" "Sure," Mazeka said. Though I couldn't help but notice that he glanced both ways before opening the door to the hut. The body had been removed. The hut was neat and tidy, with things boxed up and labeled. Apparently no one had dared touch his belongings since his body had been found. "Was he going somewhere again?" I asked. "Nah," Mazeka replied. "He had just come back. Probably still wasn't done unpacking." I went over to a box and opened it. Inside were a bundle of outlandish machines I'd never, ever seen in my life. I was about to reach in when I heard a small cry from behind. Mazeka was on the floor, a knife in his back. And Vultraz was standing over his body. I tried to get words out of my mouth, but I was too frightened. Too shocked. Too confused. "You – oh, Mata Nui… Vultraz," I wailed. "Yeah… yeah, I killed the Onu-Matoran," Vultraz said casually. "Mazeka down… and unless you shut up, you're next." "Why? Why, why, why?" I shouted before I could stop myself. For a moment I thought he'd kill me immediately, but he instead smiled. It was a kind smile, a friendly smile. A familiar one. How could someone I know be so wicked? "I hate it here," Vultraz confessed. "I've always tried so hard to make it to the top, but no matter how hard I tried, it never turned out the way I wanted. "So I began to think a while back. And I figured out something: Life's pretty simple – you come on up and do what you have to do. So, with that in mind, I chose to take the quickest route to success – kill the Matoran and take the weapons. Leave this village and sell it on the black market. Make a real living. Everybody wins. Except for the dead guys." My heartlight was beating so fast I thought it'd jump right out of my chest. I glanced at Mazeka. He stirred slightly. Almost like he was shivering. "I really didn't want to have to kill you two," Vultraz said. "I've decided that I should only kill those I have to. In fact, the morning you found the body, I had to slip out the back window of this hut to avoid meeting you." Vultraz sighed, shrugged his shoulders, and walked towards me. I stood stock-still. He was going to kill me. When Vultraz and I were not one step away from each other, he simply commanded, "Move." He shoved me out of his way and began taking machines out of the crate I'd looked in earlier. His eyes widened. "An Impact Crystal Launcher! Where's he get this stuff?" Out of nowhere, Mazeka jumped onto Vultraz's back and began to strangle him. Vultraz dropped the launcher and tried to pull Mazeka's arms away. Mazeka fell on his back, pushing the blade even further into his body. He howled, and Vultraz easily got up from Mazeka's grasp. He turned Mazeka over, took the blade from his back, and twirled it in between his fingers. "No matter how many stabs it takes…" Vultraz muttered. I realized that Vultraz was going to kill Mazeka for good. By reflex I jumped between the two Matoran. "Stop!" I said to Vultraz. "Just stop! Please, just take everything and go!" "You think I'll let you get away?" Vultraz said angrily. "The last thing I'll need is having you tell everyone my plan." "Please…" I whispered. Vultraz chuckled. "Did you really think I'd let you get out of here alive? How many dozens of stabbings do you think it'll take me to kill you?" A single thought went through my head: If you're going to go down, go down fighting. Using all my strength, I grabbed Vultraz's wrist and squeezed as hard as I could. I kicked him in the stomach and let go of his wrist. He flew back into the mess of crates and boxes, and the blade fell to the ground. "Nice kick," Mazeka groaned. I scrambled over and tried to help him up. "I'm fine," he croaked. "My back just hurts." Vultraz got up slowly, wincing. "You know what it feels like to kill someone?" he asked. He bent down and picked up the nearby blade. "When you're about to kill someone, you feel numb. And you just do it. And then you realize you never thought anyone could make a scream like that. That scream… is like a reward for being strong enough to do the act… to go through with it. And knowing you've just killed someone… it makes you feel stronger about yourself. Makes you feel like you can do things you couldn't before," Vultraz continued, his eyes wild. "It's like a superpower." "You stay away," I commanded. Mazeka stumbled as I tried to help him up. Thunder crackled outside. It was raining. "I'm going to kill you," Vultraz said matter-of-factly. His eyes. "I'm going to kill you!" he said again. Something was in his eyes. "I'm going to kill you!" he said a third time. "No you're not," I shouted back. I knelt down and laid Mazeka out onto the floor. I turned to Vultraz. "You aren't going to kill me. Not now or ever." Vultraz was angry. He was losing control over the situation - he wanted to be in control. He had to be in control. I think that was the only way he'd feel the kill was worth it. He threw his knife to the ground and charged, smashing me like a Kane-Ra. We smashed straight through the door and out into the wet, dark, muddy, raining outdoors. Vultraz screamed in anger. He beat me with his bare hands. This was bad. Physically, I was no match for the Ta-Matoran. But mentally…I was a scientist. I had made a living out of thinking things through, analyzing objects, and making observations. I knew exactly how to win this fight. Vultraz had a style of fighting – although at first it seemed as if he was making this as he went along, things fit together fluidly in context. I came up with a mental book of rules for myself. Vultraz was right-handed, which meant that if he was about to punch me with his left, it'd be a fake punch to distract me. Every hit had to count, and he couldn't waste hitting me with heat left-handed blows. Vultraz had a habit of quickly glancing down at his feet before kicking, just to see where things were spacially. I could use that to my advantage. Vultraz's left side was hurt from when I kicked him into the boxes. I had to keep hitting that. The pain would at one point be unbearable, and he'd have to collapse. I finished him off in minutes. By that time Vultraz was on the ground, whimpering and cursing. He was too bruised and beaten to even get up quickly enough. Surprisingly, no one had heard the commotion we'd been making – did they mistake it as sounds from the storm? "Get out," I said to Vultraz. "I want you to leave here forever. Never come back. And if I hear you've caused trouble somewhere else, I'll go and rip your heartlight from its socket. Do you understand?" No reply came. He just stared at me with hate in his eyes. "Do you understand?" "Yes!" Vultraz replied hastily, looking away. I kicked Vultraz again and said, "Leave." Vultraz took off and didn't look back.***Mazeka was fine. He had a bad back for several weeks, but he healed surprisingly well. The Turaga made the announcement that Vultraz was the killer and had fled. By my request, he made no mention of my fight against him. I didn't want to be hailed as a hero. I just wanted to start work again. I looked through some of the late Onu-Matoran's documents, and found that the reason he'd been holding weapons was that he would be selling them at higher prices when there was much demand and little stock. Seemed like a smart plan, but eerily similar to Vultraz's. I wondered how much alike the two were – had the Onu-Matoran killed any Vortixx to get the weapons? I never knew. One morning the Turaga came to my hut and asked if we could talk. Of course we could. "Naho, I know I've been overprotective over you all," he said, "and I want you to know that your best interests are in mind when I'm like that." I nodded, unsure of where this was going. "But I can't do it anymore. My days of heroism are done. I was foolish and stupid for thinking I could do it this long. "Naho… we need someone to look up to. Someone to stop all the Vultrazes in the world. Naho… I'd like you to take this." The Turaga took his Badge of Office – his cane – and pulled the stone off. He handed it to me. "That's a Toa stone," he said, pointing to it. "It holds my Toa power within it, as well as the power of my old Turaga from my own homeland. Now it's yours." "Turaga…" I said quietly. "Are you sure?" "Sure I'm sure," the Turaga said with a chuckle. "You showed bravery and intelligence these past few days – something this world needs a little more of." "What about Mazeka?" I protested. "He'd do a better job than me!" "Maybe, maybe not," the Turaga said with a shrug. "One would certainly think his destiny would be so… but I do not believe in destiny. I believe in carving your own fate. And that is why I offer you the choice to leave it or take it. "Besides," the Turaga continued. "I asked Mazeka. He told me to ask you." I looked down at the Toa Stone. It emanated some sort of energy that made my hand numb. "I don't know," I murmured. "Isn't being a Toa dangerous?" "Nothing much more dangerous than what you just dealt with," the Turaga replied. "Besides, you'll have elemental power. That'll be worth something." I took a deep breath. Toa. Though their bodies could die, their names would live on forever in the tales of Matoran. The sentence I said next would change my entire life, for better or for worse. "I'm ready," I said with steel in my eyes. *** Kodan glanced up, ready to hear more, but Naho had already gotten up. "That's it, then?" he asked. "That's it," Naho said with a sigh. It was strange; most of the tale she'd forgotten until now. "Well… that's that," he said, getting up. "And the rest of the story is that you heard the call that the Kanohi Dragon required stopping, and you came here." "Yes," Naho said, looking out to the horizon. "And I'm glad I did. This city is wonderful." "Another successful quest by the Chronicler," Kodan said with slight sarcasm. "I now have the origin stories of all the Toa Mangai. Now that, Naho, is true heroism." Naho smiled as Kodan dragged his sack of tablets away. *** The following is an afterword written by the Chronicler Kopeke. Time would bring change. Naho would be called by Turaga Dume – the terrible Makuta in disguise - to aid the people of her homeland against some vicious foe. She arrived and learned too late that it was all a ruse; the Dark Hunter Eliminator killed her and threw her in the sea. Naho's old Turaga would find the body washed up on shore and would prepare a memorial service for her. Her sprit star fell from the sky. Still, years later, her name was not forgotten. Nokama would christen the falls of Ga-Koro after her, as well as the bay it fed into. It all just proved Naho's point that Toa live on forever.

Our hands-on with the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic 'Tube' was pretty conclusive: the 5800 is a solid, capable but somewhat underwhelming music phone. For a first attempt at a full touch interface, though, the adapted S60 operating system is actually pretty good. Slashphone has unearthed a mountain of demo footage displaying the different functions of the OS, so you can make your own judgment, but as with our hands-on video, you'll just have to try to ignore the damning, repeatedly unregistered touches that keep happening whenever the screen isn't pre-rendered.
The social networking tools are highly functional, but I'm not sure how eager people will be to build vanity feeds for their friends.
Excited about using your 5800 with Flickr, YouTube or Facebook? Well, Nokia's got a sort clone for you, I guess.
And finally, the most telling "feature": two styluses (styli?)—a guitar pick and a traditional pen. Manufactures should should really be required to call these thing "pokescreen phones." [Slashphone]

Pysanky are created when patterns are drawn on eggs with wax, which then protects the covered areas from the dye that is applied. By repeating this process with different colors of dye, a multi-colored pattern is built up. Pysanky artist Ola Kryway describes the process of Ukrainian egg decorating, including preparing/selecting eggs, drawing design, dyeing, and the meaning of designs.

Omnium1 W@pp`s
A W@pp is traced to the well-established term "App". "App" basically describes a software application, whereas a "W@pp" always contains of software and hardware components, which are connected with and controlled by the Omnium1.
iMRS one
The iMRS one-W@pp consists of a software package, an intelligent D/A converter to transform the digital control signals into analog, pulsating, electromagnetic fields (PEMF) and a hardware-set (applicators) for the output (multiple options available). iMRS one is the world`s first magnetic resonance stimulations system W@pp which performs on an android platform. It is technically based on the most sold and most popular PEMF system in the world for home use, the iMRS. Together with the Omnium1 interface the iMRS one consists of the unique capability of performing socket free, easy to use and totally independent PEMF applications with various applicators. The software surface is very intuitive, easy to operate and due to the proper size of the touch icons also suitable for the elderly. The new generation of applicators (OmniMat, OmniPad and OmniSpot) are outstanding, due to their high quality fabric, excellent workmanship and a compact construction for an easy and smooth transportation.
iMRS one software
The iMRS one W@pp for Omnium1 was created based on the newest findings in terms of easy, safe and effective operation. Clear menu structure, big touch icons with easy to read font sizes and at the same time a fresh, modern and high contrast surface design allow an intuitive and simple usability within minutes of instructions. In addition the iMRS one W@pp offers 5 preinstalled quick start programs. Just click one button to activate one of the following applications:
- Relaxation
- Performance
- Activation
- Sleep
- Regeneration
Omnium1 Applicators
Triple-fold, 6 built in, non-insulated, solid copper coils in 3 segments, Triple saw-tooth wave impulse and magnetic field strength max. 45 micro Tesla, increasing amount of windings from top to bottom.
Single-fold, 2 built in, non-insulated, solid copper coils, same amount of windings, square wave impulse, magnetic field strength max. 70 micro Tesla, flexible fixing belt with adjustable extension for a simple and effective local application.
2 single segments connected with a flexible belt. 2 built in, non-insulated, solid copper coils, same amount of windings, square wave impulse, magnetic field strength max. 120 micro Tesla, Helmholtz-effect (=homogenous magnetic field) due to the opposite arrangement of the coils during the application. Fixing belt for an easy and effective, punctual application.
Over decades Brain Wave Entrainment has become an integral part of modern mental training concepts. The technology is widely used in modern medicine as well as in professional sports and as a very effective, supportive learning tool. The primary goal of a brain wave entrainment session is to utilize the basic tendency of the human brain to resonate with external stimuli. Hereby one can apply visible or audible, external frequencies which can be recognized and processed by the brain. By controlling the applied frequencies in a proper way, the brain starts resonating with it and adjusts its own frequency patterns. This way, the user can actively influence the actual mental state. Omnium1 is a 3-way-brain wave entrainment system, which is capable of gaining resonances based on light, tone and color. The goggle is made of suede-leather, very comfortable to wear and contains of built in high end ear phones for the tone and music stimulus as well as a flexible PCB with RGB-LED`s to create the desired light and color frequencies. All patterns can be individually adjusted. OmniBrain is a 2-channel brain wave entrainment system and works independently with the left and right channel.
OmniBrain – Specialty
OmniBrain is the only 2-channel brain wave entrainment system in the world, which can be also simultaneously used together with the magnetic resonance stimulation application (PEMF) provided by the iMRS one. This supports and optimizes the desired wellness effect and saves a lot of time! The Omnium1 together with the iMRS one W@pp is capable of controlling the entire application with one and the same operation surface.

This forum is for people and families with transverse myelitis and atraumatic spinal cord injury. Spinal cord injury results from many causes besides trauma. For example, spinal cord injury can occur from loss of blood flow (ischemia), arteriovenous malformations (AVM), infections (viral or bacterial, tuberculosis), arachnoiditis (inflammation of the meningeal lines of the spinal cord), tumors (both intrinsic and extrinsic to the spinal cord), autoimmune diseases (multiple sclerosis and lupus erythemasus), spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal), developmental disorders (cerebral palsy, spina bifida), scoliosis (curvature of the spine), surgical complications, osteoarthritis (spondylosis), disc herniation and other causes of spinal cord compression, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, muscular dystrophy, and and many other causes.
While the consequences and care of spinal cord injury in these cases may be similar, the causes vary. This forum is for people to discuss issues related to atraumatic spinal cord injury. Many people have requested such a forum. To initiate the forum, we will be moving some topics relating to transverse myelitis and atraumatic SCI from the Care and Cure forum here in order to provide a base for the forum.
Thank you.

Beltway Blog — Air Force cuts 140 civilian positions in Colorado
WASHINGTON — The Air Force will pare 140 civilian positions from Colorado as part of a 2010 efficiency order, Rep. Doug Lamborn said Wednesday.
Of those 140 jobs, 106 will come from Lamborn's 5th Congressional district, including 58 at Shriever Air Force Base, 26 at the Air Force Academy, 18 at Peterson Air Force Base.
Nationwide, the cuts compose roughly 9 percent of civilian jobs in the Air Force, but Colorado's cuts compose only about 2 percent, Lamborn said.
"So far I'm feeling like we've dodged a bullet," he said. "We need to get the national budget under control but I don't want to see us sacrifice our defensive capabilities."
The positions, which could range from Air Force Academy professors to maintenance or human resources jobs, may go unfilled or some may be eliminated through attrition, Lamborn said. Not everyone will likely get a "pink slip."

Oh my Jesus, forgive me my sins and save me from the fires of hell. Bring all souls to heaven, especially those most in need of your mercy.
Our Lady specifically asked at Fatima that we insert this prayer into each decade when we pray the Rosary.
These are the other prayers we were taught at Fatima:
Pardon Prayer
My God, I believe, I adore, I trust and I love you. I beg pardon for those who do not believe, do not adore, do not trust and do not love you.
Oh my Jesus, it is for love of you, in reparation for the offenses committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and for the conversion of poor sinners.
When we pray before the Blessed Sacrament
Most Holy Trinity, I adore you! My God, my God, I adore you in the most blessed Sacrament.
The Angel's Prayer
With the Blessed Sacrament suspended in mid-air, the Angel of Fatima prostrated himself and prayed,
Most Holy Trinity — Father, Son and Holy Spirit — I adore you profoundly. I offer you the most Precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ — present in all the tabernacles of the world — in reparation for the outrages, sacrileges and indifference by which He is offended. By the infinite merits of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg the conversion of poor sinners.

There's a lot of talk about how handwriting is on its way out. With the ascendance of technology, beginning with the typewriter and extending all the way to smartphones, it's not hard to see that we're writing less than ever before. And it's true that writing letters or long messages to each other may be a lost art, especially when it comes to communicating for business or over long distances. For that quick reminder or urgent business matter, Post-it® Notes are still very much relevant. For ideas, comments, or reminders that need to stick in the workplace or at home, Post-it® Notes are the most preferred option. Strong enough to stick with you wherever you are. Make it stick with Post-it® Notes.

Organisation skills can do a lot for kids. When it comes to school, organisation is essential for keeping track of homework, projects and study schedules. But that means organisation itself can feel like something of a chore for many kids. That's why it can be helpful to teach your kids organisation skills by starting with hobbies and extra-curricular activities. Learning to organise something they love can help kids internalise good habits that they can later apply to school, work and life in general. Help them stay on top of their education by teaching them life long skills with Post-it® Products.
