The Political Umpire has posted several fascinating articles on the Falklands- his latest raises some interesting questions upon which I wish to elaborate. The argument is basically over what constitutes a nation- the Argentinian claim to the Falklands is based upon the fact that they are part of Argentina, no matter what the opinion of their inhabitants, the British view is that the views of the inhabitants count. In a sense you can see a similar dispute in operation in the South China Sea between China and Taiwan- where China states the first principle and the ROK the second, the same principles are in confrontation also in Gilbrater and in Northern Ireland.
One of the interesting things about these kinds of dispute is that there is an issue about what constitutes a nation- generally we accept the 1919 idea that self determination constitutes a nation- for example Britain is a nation if the majority of the British consider themselves to be British. In that sense it might seem obvious that the Argentinian, Chinese and Spanish claims have to be rejected- but there is a hidden problem here- what constitutes a territory? As it is definitely true say that if the whole of China voted including Taiwan that Taiwan is part of China does that make the legitimate government of Taiwan Chinese- and if it doesn't, where and on what justification do you draw the line. For example were Kent to vote to become French would it matter that the rest of Britain thought it shouldn't. Where do the proper boundaries lie?
My own sense, and it is pretty provisional, is that politics is the art of the status quo. Eventually boundaries govern where nations lie- so the fact that Taiwan exists means that it is an entity whereas the fact that Kent doesn't means that it isn't. That comes with one proviso though- politics is also the art of the possible- and holding together a nation that wants to split apart or that a significant part wants no part of is an enterprise which creates more problems for the government than is worthwhile- consequently self determination in a democratic system will eventually be acknowledged- as the examples of devolution whether in Scotland, Quebec and the Basque Country show, a central government can more or less successfully attempt to mollify those that don't feel part of the whole. On that ground, Taiwan, the Falklands and Gilbrater should remain independent of China, Argentina and Spain.
Even greater issues can manifest themselves- in territories like Tibet or the Western Sahara even the status of occupants in the territories are in question- for example in the Western Sahara should Morrocans who have been imported into the territory by the government of Morrocco be allowed to vote in any referendum. Should Han Chinese in Tibet be allowed the right to determine the destinies of Tibet? And if that happens does that reward oppressive governments who effectively ethnically replace troublesome populations.
The problems here are huge, the issues are in my view not as simple as they appear. I agree with the Umpire that the Falklands should be British but I do get worried by a simplistic evocation of self-determination- it isn't quite that simple.

The British claim to the Falklands doesn't only rely on the status quo or self-determination. These islands have never been Argentinian. This isn't like Hong Kong where we took a part of a pre-existing state. This was signed to us by Spain as one colonising power to another.
The only way the Argentinian claim makes any sense is if you argue that the Spanish, as their colonial power, had no right to sign the Falklands over to us. Even then we have just as strong a claim to it as the Spaniards-Argentinians anyway in terms of original colonisation. Read the Wikipedia page.
The reality is that the Argentinian claim is based on a "it's pretty close to us" logic. There's nothing more articulate than that.

I agree that, in a lot of these cases of national self-deternmination, where you draw the boundaries is key. The Sinn Fein claim that the whole of Ireland should be an independent republic comes from claiming a mandate from the 1918 election - where they won most of the seats on the island. They don't recognise the '6 counties' as a unit for self-determination.
In the same way, apparantly, in the midst of the Quebec sovereignty referendum, spokespeople for the Native Americans said that, if Quebec voted for independence from Canada, then they would ask for independence from Quebec for the sparsely populated northern areas of the province which they historically have predominated in.

The Falklands were populated by British people in 1833. Of course the people want to remain British - they ARE British. It is not purely the people present that determine a nation - were it so Britain would have a claim on Ibiza! When the British invaded in 1833 there was already an Argentine settlement ruled from Buenos Aires. The idea that you can invade an island, populate it with your own citizens and then a few generations later claim it is your purely because the people that live there are your citizens is absurd.

Umpire enjoy your holiday!
Anonymous- yes that is precisely the issue I'm trying to get at. Its not as simple as it seems from your narrative. As far as I understand until the 18th Century noone lived on those islands. The history then gets complicated- the British actually arrived there in 1766 establishing a settlement (the French arrived in 1767 and passed their claim to the Spanish) and were then forced out by the Spanish in 1774 and then forced out the Argentinians who had inherited the Spanish claim in 1833. Its more like the idea that the British and Argentinians (or Spanish) arrived at teh same time and have been bickering ever since about who gets the islands. In that case the Islanders do have rights over which nation they belong to.

Canon offers anamorphic converter and Cine prime lenses for digital shooters
Canon now offers six high-definition electronic cinematography (HD-EC) Cine Prime lenses in the 2/3in format. This includes the FJs 5-, 9-, 14-, 24-, 35-, and 55mm prime lenses. Canon's HD-EC ACV-235 Anamorphic Converter also extends the capabilities of its FJs series.
Canon's FJs Prime Lens series provides contrast range and edge sharpness as a result of its modulation transfer function (MTF)) profile across the 16:9 image plane. This is further enhanced by the FJs Prime Lens series' tight control of chromatic aberrations. The color reproduction of all six models closely match one another, reducing the need to re-balance a digital camera's white reference when changing lenses during a shoot.
The lenses feature optimization of MTF at the wide aperture settings and a very short minimum object distance (MOD). Canon's Internal Focus technology, employing a two-group floating optical system, further increases performance.

pics by Punkangel, thank you <3
This was my outfit. It was my last coord with that dress, it has a new home now.

Very shiny group picture as I'm too lazy with photoshop :P
I also like this random shot. Alex, Punkangel and me :3
I had a lot of fun at this Meet-up. We also kinda tried a new structure, going to the restaurant before the museum, normally we do it the other way round. I think it worked just as well ( ´∀`)☆
How do you prefer it?
See you soon,

Who are the Monday Nighters?
We are a group of members who meet, would you believe, every Monday night at 8pm in the Art Theatre to undertake any jobs that we feel we can help to save the Theatre Money.
Our skills are many and enthusiasm plenty.
There are many areas that still need approaching and extra bodies or new teams to take on the challenge.
The next big challenge is the state of the Entrance Foyer. After recent rains there was a substantial amount of decoration ruined by water ingress to the left hand side of the entrance door – is there a team that will take on the challenge to redecorate and upgrade this whole area?
All the fire escape of the theatre needs wire brushing and repainting to protect it from the winter. Jobs for the daylight hours – Any volunteers this should only take a couple of days.
If you can help with any of these projects or can see an area that needs attention please come along to the Theatre any Monday night from 8p.m. you will be more than welcome as the maintenance of this unique building is our future.
We look forward to hearing from you soon.

ARTISTIC DIRECTOR GARY GROSSMAN and SKYLIGHT THEATRE COMPANY
In recognition of their joint accomplishments, assembling over 750 productions, workshops, readings, and classes in just over three decades, the Skylight Board of Directors is recognizing Gary Grossman and Skylight Theatre at the 2016 Skylight Salute being held December 4th at the Colony Theatre in Burbank.
Over the past three decades, from Camelot Artists Productions to Katselas Theatre Company and in 2013 becoming Skylight Theatre Company, the one constant thread has been Gary Grossman. First as a producer and eventually becoming its Artistic Director in 2008, Skylight and Gary have become synonymous with nurturing artists, producing live theatre in Los Angeles and developing new work.
Over 2500 different artists have graced Skylight's stages including 204 Los Angeles based writers. Skylight and Grossman have helped to craft, develop, workshop and mount a large body of original works, generating 166 readings, 157 workshops, and 100 world premiere productions.
Productions developed under Skylight's auspices have gone on to garner awards and nationwide attention for their playwrights. Sigrid Gilmer, a member of Skylight's resident writers' PlayLAb received the coveted 2014 USA Artists Ford Fellowship and $50,000, while Nathan Allan Davis' play "Dontrell, Who Kissed The Sea" received the prestigious Steinberg/American Theatre Critics Association 2015 New Play Citation. The Humanitas PlayLA workshop, launched in 2015 with support from the Center Theatre Group, has selected Skylight resident writers to fill five out of the ten available positions from over 200 candidate submissions. Louisa Hill, another of Skylight's resident writers, won Third Place in the inaugural year of the associated Humanitas PlayLA Playwriting Prize.
Through Grossman's leadership, Skylight's plays have made their way across the United States to New York, Chicago, Baltimore, Cincinnati, Kansas City, Denver, and San Francisco, while internationally they have been performed in Paris and Edinburgh, with more scheduled for Australia, Canada and Greece.
Skylight has been a community leader providing artistic opportunities for at-risk teens and helping to feed the hungry. In the last three years, 1250 teens in Los Angeles detention centers and high schools have experienced Lyric writing workshops. Supported through partnerships with ASCAP Foundation, the City of Los Angeles, and Boeing's Employee Community Fund, 45 of the young lyricists have been mentored and teamed with professional songwriters to create new songs that are performed in a unique musical event. Since 2012, Skylight artists have been putting Art Into Action, donating their time and talent to help feed LA's hungry on Thanksgiving Day; since the program began over 1200 hungry people have been fed in the Downtown and MacArthur Park areas.
Gary Grossman's unselfish efforts for the Los Angeles theatre community were recognized at the 2016 Stage Raw Theatre Awards with a Lifetime Achievement Award. He continues to be an advocate for the Los Angeles theatre community leading interactions with Actors Equity Association and LA Theatre Producers for a workable agreement between the actors union and Los Angeles producers.


text: Share: Comments Print May 5, 2014 at 7:04 AM Minimum wage: Economics can't explain all variables of a wage hike Posted by Letters Coordinator The final two words of Maxford Nelsen's guest column on the minimum wage caught my attention, specifically the term "dreadful economics" ["Does increasing the minimum wage stimulate the economy?" Opinion, May 1] That pretty much defines the field of study of economics itself. This so-called social science attempts to apply the scientific method to an area that would require an algorithm of such complexity that even a supercomputer couldn't manage it. Too many things are left unexplained in choosing one isolated topic (for example, the minimum wage) in one isolated area (for example, Seattle) to study. How does one take into account the inexplicable behavior of otherwise brainy tech workers who covet a marginally valuable house so badly that they bid the price up well beyond its worth? Do those who are expecting a raise in their income when the minimum wage expect to better compete with the irrational rapaciousness of the gentrifying forces? How does one put that in an algorithm?

Procrastinate All You WANT but your LIFE GOALS.
First and foremost, I don't like procrastinating. But I have done it. I do it because it's harder to actually do something about it. Then, when it becomes a stressful period of time, you find some energy and you seem to be able to complete the task in hand. In some instances, people who procrastinated did better than I did in some exams and projects. That stress worked in their favour. As the deadline came closer.Read More

Travel Journal through a Gastronomic Paradise
Author: Sean O'Rourke
Fascinated with the Celtic World, perhaps because of his Scottish & Irish roots, Sean O'Rourke,
a Canadian living in Galicia, is not your average Tour Director. We discovered Sean through
his collaboration in the magazine "Wines From Spain". What caught our attention is his love for
this land that he resumes in his articles and the curiosity led us to find out that we are practically
neighbors in Vigo. EuroAdventures, the company of Sean O'Rourke, is dedicated to organizing
vacations for small groups, fundamentally from the United States of America and Canada, which
in a few days enjoy to all degrees the excellence of various wines and gastronomy of
Galicia. One of their tours covers, precisely, the areas that form the Denomination of Origin Rias
Baixas. For this reason we have asked him to tell us about his gastronomic adventures. With him we will
take an emotional trip from the eyes of a foreigner, which for him every hidden corner is a grand
discover. On this trip his tourist will accompany us, who have kindly sent in the photographs which,
together, form a photo album almost like a family album. To understand better the initiative of Sean
O'Rourke you can visit his website: www.euroadventures.net
It was a long night of entertaining Celtic music well worth the couple hours less in sleep. This morning we started off the day at a slow pace following around the Ria (Bay) of Vigo and like the famous song says ¡Para Vigo me voy!. (To Vigo I go!). Continuing our journey along the coast passing by the beaches of Samil, Corujo, Canido, and a must see America Beach where Europe first got word of the discovery of the New World. We followed along the coastal road that took us to A Guarda entering for the first time in the town council of O Rosal, sub-zone of the D.O. Rías Baixas. Time passed by fast, and we where all ready for lunch. We ate at the top of the hill in the restaurant "Mar y Cielo" (Sea & Sky), no better name than this because from the restaurant it is the only thing you see. Our menu selected today, was a tremendous mariscada (seafood feast). Starting with pulpo a feira (Octopus fair-style), second course mussels, clams, prawns, scallops, crabs and of course lobsters, and everything accompanied by albariño of this sub-zone.

How does a herdshare work? Basically you will be purchasing a percentage of either our cow or a percentage of our herd of milking does. After you own a percentage of the animal, it's yours and therefore you can legally take and possess the raw milk from said animal...your own animal! You don't pay for the milk...ever! You however will pay a weekly fee to help with the care and feeding of your percentage of the animal or herd. The duration of the ownership to be determined.
How much milk will I get? Well that depends on how many shares you buy! For instance if we sell 10 shares of our herd and you buy one share, you own 10% of our herd. Now say as a whole they give on average 4 gallons a day, your share of that would be .4 gallons per day (or approximately 2.8 gallons per week). You are even welcome to come and get your share of the packed goat manure!
Can I sell my share(s)? Only back to us. If you are no longer interested in your share of your animal let us know and we would be happy to buy your percentage back. If you know of somebody interested in your share feel free to have them contact us and we will sell directly to them...unfortunately we can't honor third party sales.
How often will I get my share(s)? We would like to schedule weekly pick ups for each shareholder. Best case senario for each person to get the freshest milk, would be for each shareholder to pick up on a different day. We will work this out more specifically as we get closer to offering shares.
Pricing: TBD

Also, to add on to what Robert is listing here, if you go the ConnectPHP or REST API route of deleting incidents using ROQL, make sure that you specify that you are using CCOM v1.4 and also specify an application context.
Here is the reference documentation:
1. ConnectPHP
Hope this helps,
There are some decent examples in the REST API Guide but the GUIDE doesn't show you any working examples and assumes you know what to enter after query=

Can you provide me with an example on how to delete a single incident ? Or do you have any cheatsheet of working examples ?
Thank you.

The documentation that I posted above has examples of how to perform the DELETE operations.
With that said, looking at your request that you have posted, there are a couple of things that stand out:
As far as working examples, I have built a few wrappers for the REST API. I have examples for running DELETE requests in the terminal or in scripts using the following languages/environments:
I would modify your query first; however, should you need help with any of the wrappers feel free to ping me here and I will do my best to help you out.
Kind Regards,
Thanks Raj, this is pretty awesome! Well done.

Machinima, the popular video game channel dedicated to bringing tons of video game related, uh, videos, took it upon themselves to cast and produce a series of short YouTube videos showing the zombie outbreak, gamer-style, with 'Bite Me.' What it amounts to a blend of relevant humor, references and a some good ol' gore, though the first season - consisting of 5 episodes - doesn't actually dwell too much on the action until the finale. That said, each episode has it's own special event to keep things going at a good pace, and if you've got some time to kill, it's worth a watch - with each episode a little under ten minutes, it's a pretty solid filler for breaks in class or odd moments at work. Click here to start now, or check out our little preview below!
The series follows Jeff, Greg and Mike - each gaming stereotypes of their own who live together. Using skills learned from videogames - Dead Rising 2 is especially referenced - they must survive the oncoming wave of horror cast upon Los Angeles (in a way much better than Skyline). The cast also expands to include a generic Jersey Shore type guy with the hot chick at his arms, the generic hot neighbour the guys talk about, and the generic girlfriend pulling one of their friends away. While the actual (you guessed it!) genericness is bland, the jokes are surprisingly well-placed and make up for it. I found myself laughing out loud throughout the entire first episode. And no, before you ask, this is a YouTube video - there's no nudity. Stop it.
Spoiler: The guy above is not Frank West. Sorry, fellas.
In their ventures for survival, you'll see umbrellas weaponized Dead Rising 2 style, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 night vision goggles put to use, and some solid swag references that might make you look at your very own copy of the item twice. It's always comforting to know that something you own is out there elsewhere in the world, being used as props in a zombie film.
While we can't guarantee playing the same games will enable you to survive the upcoming Zombie Apocalypse in real life (you read it here first!), it brings for an entertaining series of videos and what amounts to a little under 45 minutes. If you've got some time to kill, check out the video below for the first episode, and it'll link you to the next one from there.
If you've already seen the series, or are currently watching, what did you think?

We're committed to working towards a more sustainable future, which is we participate in outreach events in parks, museums, gardens and community gatherings. Our honey tastings at these events deliver food literacy and introduce people to the varied flavors of local honey. This is key as Americans import 70% of the honey they consume (Source: NY Times).
We participate in the Battery annual festivals, Earth Day Weekend and Harvest festival, which reach several thousands visitors each year. The events feature key figures in sustainability and over 300 eco-friendly businesses that offer the latest and greatest in sustainable products and services.
We participated in an informal dialogue and honey tasting over tea on bees, honey, urban beekeeping and artist Jan Mun's BeeSpace Audio Observation art project as part of MoMA Studio: Exchange Café.
Melding creativity and sustainability, we gave a talk and dialogued on urban beekeeping at Museo del Barrio, one of the world's leading Latino cultural institutions.
Bees gather most of their pollen and nectar for trees. For that reason, we kicked off large-scale volunteer effort to 'green' and reforest New York City.
This event was part of a "Trees for Bees" initiative in partnership with NYC Beekeeping. Our team of beekeepers and bee-lovers planted hundreds of trees for Million Trees NYC, an pioneering public-private initiative led by New York Restoration Project and the NYC Department of Parks and Recreation.
We hosted a community screening of the award-winning documentary, More than Honey, in which Oscar-nominated director Markus Imhoof tackles the issue of why bees, worldwide, are dying. The film visits the bees and beekeepers across the globe from the pristine Swiss Alps to Varroa destructor-free Australia to California's bustling almond orchards to the fields of China, where crops have to be hand-pollinated due to the death of their bees.
The Honeybee Conservancy, BeeNative and the Natural Resources Defense Council co-organized an fundraising event and auction for Vanishing of the Bees, an award-winning documentary co-directed by George Langworthy and Maraym Heinen. Narrated by Ellen Page, the must-watch film explored the collapse of honeybee populations across the planet and its risk to $15 billion dollars' worth of U.S. agricultural revenue products. The auction included an autographed copy of What Do Bees Do? by esteemed actor Tina Louise, pictured. Pictured are George, Tina and Maryam.
During Earth Day Weekend, we joined NYC Beekeeping to speak on Urban Beekeeping at Green Festival. The festival, the largest green living event in the world, attracting more than 20,000 people and held in New York City's Javits Center's LEED-certified pavilion.

Common Alder - tree - September 2018
Alder is native to Britain and is also found throughout Europe as far as Siberia. Common name: alder, common alder, black alder, European alder It is conical in shape and mature trees can reach a height of around 20m and live to around 60 years. The bark is dark and fissured and is often covered in lichen. Twigs have a light brown spotted stem which turns red towards the top. Young twigs are sticky to touch. The purple or grey leaf buds form on long stems and the 3–9cm long dark green leaves are racquet-shaped and leathery, with serrated edges. The leaf tip is never pointed and is often indented. The flowers are on catkins which appear between February and April. Alder is monoecious, which means that both male and female flowers are found on the same tree. Male catkins are yellow and pendulous, measuring 2–6cm. Female catkins are green and oval-shaped, and are grouped in numbers of three to eight on each stalk. Once pollinated by wind, the female catkins gradually become woody and appear as tiny, cone-like fruits in winter. They open up to release seeds, which are dispersed by wind and water. The small brown cones, which are the female catkins, stay on the tree all year round. Its natural habitat is moist ground near rivers, ponds and lakes and it thrives in damp, cool areas such as marshes, wet woodland and streams where its roots help to prevent soil erosion. It can also grow in drier locations and sometimes occurs in mixed woodland and on forest edges. It grows well from seed and will quickly colonise bare ground. Because of its association with the nitrogen-fixing bacterium Frankia alni, it can grow in nutrient-poor soils where few other trees thrive. The wet conditions found in alder woodland are ideal for a number of mosses, lichens and fungi, along with the small pearl-bordered fritillary and chequered skipper butterflies, and some species of crane fly. Alder roots make the perfect nest sites for otters. Alder coppices well and the wood makes excellent charcoal and gunpowder. The roots have nitrogen-fixing nodules which make it an excellent soil conditioner. The trees are therefore used to improve soil fertility on former industrial wasteland and brownfield sites. They are also used in flood mitigation. === Scientific classification Kingdom: Plantae (unranked): Angiosperms (unranked): Eudicots (unranked): Rosids Order: Fagales Family: Betulaceae Genus: Alnus Subgenus: Alnus Species: A. glutinosa

Coco and OP-1?
br>I just saw an interesting video in which someone had plugged the audio out of an OP-1 into the Piezo 1/8" on the Coco 2.
Seemed to work fine ... though I was a bit surprised. Not being very smart about such things, can someone give me a quick lecture re: what sorts of signals can safely be input there? Obviously not just piezo disks.
Thanks! br> br>
br>I put anything in there I want to amplify or overdrive. Guitars, synths, OP-1, even piezos
. No worries about "safe" levels on my side. I have never broken an amp by too hot inputs (knocking on wood). br> br>
Thanks for the info. I really am fond of the thing and careful, perhaps overly so, of doing something to blow it up.
Sounds like more opportunity for sonic weirdness.
br> br>
br>I want to chime in here, because I recently sent my coco to Peter, due to some extra noisy noise coming from the delays which seem to happen most often when I was using my OP1 into the inputs (the regular inputs, not the piezo)... Essentially, the original Signal would immediately become overwhelmed by a bunch of extraneous static noise, rather then delaying the signal itself… I struggled with deciding whether or not it was a real problem, as it seemed to come and go and also seemed to mostly happen with The op1, but certainly occurred with other devices… Anyways, he has the Coco now, looking forward to getting it back hopefully 'fixed', but I thought that it might have to do with the USB charging noise that comes with the OP1, like maybe the Coco was latching onto it stronger than The signal I wanted processed… Maybe that digital noise is stereo and sent most of the signals from the OP1 I was sending mono it chose to process them over the mono signal? I'm pretty sure I did experiments with that idea tho and came out with the same end result, but it was pretty finicky, hope to get this resolved as they are quite complimentary, when working together!
Sorry for the rant, please chime in if you have any insight, anyone. br> br>
br>whenever I get noise with the coco I turn something up
it sounds like your problem has gone beyond this issue to me but the delays can be awfully noisy when trying to reproduce a soft or quiet sound
I have an op1 and a coco I can see if mine behave similarly br> br>
br>I know the exact noise behaviour you are speaking horaflore of and have heard it myself a bunch of times. On/Off and its gone. Its not happening as often now, though, and I have the OP1 permantly on 1/8" input two. I could never really trace the source of it. br> br>
br>I've heard this noise too, once, is the sound you pals are talking about something like a disturbed AM radio signal? Something like a crazy ground hum? ..I remeber it was very cool, also..
That time I thought it may be related on powering the COCO with the pitch knob totally CW so that an electrc "something" related on powering the circuit may loop in a fast and highly pitched manner.
Stupid thing is that I'm not sure the knobs, that time, were all CW, I'll investigate.
Another one, I have a OP-1 always connected to the piezo in as I used myself to distribute the signal from there.. and I can't remember if that time the OP-1 was connected!
again, I'll investigate.. br> br>
br>Thanks y'all - I definitely had tried on/off to eradicate noise, but to no avail...
I keep the usb plugged in so midi can be connected, so in your testing on my behalf (thanks!!!!!) be sure to do that (there additional op1 noise due to usb on most units I believe, mine being no exception)
Sorry to usurp the thread... Though the title is appropo enough to fit it I suppose.. br> br>
br>Last night I tried but I can't recreate the behavior.. br> br>
br>Also tried and got some noise, but that was a modded Omnichord puttibg out extra noise garbage. Can't really replicate the behaviour right now. br> br>
br>much like an un boxed WB frog the coco only dances when it wants to i suppose br> br>

Thanks y'all, hopefully Peter straighten this out… Will certainly keep you up on how it goes, Sent in the Coco a couple of weeks ago, in typical fashion I have not heard anything from him since..! br> br>
br>If he does, please post the findings here. br> br>

Naturally! br> br>
br>not sure if anyone else took the BETA plunge with the op1
I bought my op1 shortly before I knew about the newest beta firmware
I initially held off but then heard a couple things that made me switch
arp and fixed tape looping hooray!
having played with the beta for longer than I've played with any other OP1 firmware I have to say it is great
I found the newest sync option (I would assume mainly for the pocket operators)
just go into the metronome page then turn the green dial until you the new option (my op1 just ran out of battery and I don't remember what it is called offhand)
I'm starting to try syncing the op1 and CL stuff together
I know it has been done before using tape tracks and panning one track with the click one way and the other tracks the other way but this seems much easier
first test
PB (running off 9v battery)
the click track comes out of the LEFT output of a stereo cable (splitters are your friend
it intermittently triggered a gong directly and was too low for the ultrasound so I figured the signal needed some boosting
I put it into the deerhorn and turned the switch to middle position (you only hear the audio present at the jack "under" the deerhorn)
using the appropriate white jack on the deerhorn I could then wave my hand to bring in triggers which worked great for the gongs
my op1 died just before I plugged the jack into an AVdog (or anything else like the MWRS) so I'm not sure there yet
I would imagine you could also make use of the cocoquantus' piezo input to amplify this signal and not take up extra modules
a couple things I haven't tried out yet
let us say you have 4 tracks recorded and panned in different ways with this sync feature enabled I wonder if all of the panning is just overwritten into the single channel (this makes the most sense)
easy to test just change the panning of a track while sync is enabled
what happens to the click track when you are using tape tricks
importantly reverse
I have had some time to program on the shnth again
op1=>shnth v2 (audio input) => minirig speaker this setup is so fun and small if I had a nice little matrix mixer before the minirig it would be perfect
(I'm looking into the xiwi electronics one but it is passive I may end up getting an active one ) br> br>
br>I've been working on my shnth filter patch for a bit
I should get some time today to try this combo further
also since the op1 signal needs to be boosted to work well with the CL stuff I'm wondering if it may work as a pulse signal with the shnth V2 input...
it could be neat to sync the two together
it would be pretty rad if the record input of the OP1 could be used as a sync input while not sampling (obviously there would have to be some switch/mixing of the inputs for this to work) br> br>
br>the OP1's "NY" sync output works great with the shnth (putting the WIND in a square really helps)
you will need a L&R splitting cable of some sort
otherwise you will hear some of each channel on both channels
RED (ring) audio from OP1
Black (tip) SYNC signal
hopefully something TE will fix before they release the new firmware is that the sync is always running even if tape is off
had a different idea of how to approach the stuber shnth design will be trying that out
I just recently read the stephen king short stort 1408 and my 1408th post was a couple days ago woo
wait why is my picture hanging crooked br> br>
br>I've got an old school Coco... the Cocolase!
I started using mine again for the first time in years. I thought it wouldn't power up properly. Then I had the pleasure of hanging with Peter and attending his Tocante workshop in my area. He showed me I was using it wrong - i'd forgotten that if you plug something into the right input, you have to plug your output cable into the right input; and same goes with the left side. He initially made same mistake I did
, plugging Tocante into the right input, and plugging output cable into the left output.
Anyway, I found I could mitigate noise on the thing by watching the Input gain setting. My new Tocante Karper has a hot as hell output so I have to turn the Input down a lot more for it than I did plugging a piezo picking. br> br>
br>Uh my COCO tonight wont let me play.
The strange behavior showed again playing with a cymbal and a piezo in the top xlr input, after a couple of minutes of playing some high pitched noise appears, something like a crazy AM radio source, cleaning the buffer doesn't help, the noise is there.
Trying now with my OP-1 and no way, same thing.
did you get yours back from Peter? What did he say?
Ay caramba!
br> br>
br>This is strange: I played since the last post I made flawlessly with the OP-1 feeding the Coco then I said to me "let me clean the buffers and let's try again with the cymbal" with the volume at zero I heard the fridge pump turning on in the kitchen, well I'm in the kitchen.. turned up the volume and the noise was there.
I'm waiting for the pump starting again now with the Coco recording nothing, let's see..
I turned off and on the fridge, he is the culprit!
Have I to sell the fridge for the sake of looping gongs?
So the Coco is very susceptible to power fluctuations I'd say, hope it will not happens in my next live shows.. br> br>
br>Have to say things are not good here, changed wall outlet, the one where basically the whole studio is plugged and the one I always used with my Coco and OP-1, the bad behavior is back..
Sounds like I have a problem..
Any hint? Have I to contact Peter? br> br>
Sorry to hear of your troubles! Peter chalked my problem up as a 'ghost' problem, essentially one in the mind of the user... ! He did point out that it's a somewhat finicky (not exactly his words) and 12 bit device, so noisy as well,and that is the nature of it, so one may expect some odd behavior, beyond the confines of the odd behavior it's supposed to have..!
my problem was mainly the usb noise that is always in op1 when it's usb connected, so I just dont have it connected now, though mean to try a usb isolating loop thing at some point.
Good luck!!!!! br> br>
br>Coco is 8bit so basically gameboy resolution, it can also be finicky to get the gain staging just right, I have my coco turned down on the mixer to force me to pump up the coco inputs. br> br>
br>Have you tried different 12v wall warts? I have plenty of them picked up in the recycle bin and some may not be suited for cl gear even if specs are good. Worth trying. br> br>
br>Thanks everybody for the help.
Anyway it doesn't seem a ghost problem or a gain staging thing, I'm pretty used to the Coco and used it extensively, this alien frequency delirium kicks in loud when doing something like pressing record to loop, disconnecting the USB cable of the OP-1, when the fridge pump kicks in, plugging a banana into the SP.AF..

Good suggestion, thanks
, I suspect the troubles come from something power related, have to try this. Maybe my wall wart is giving up? It's a very cheap one..
Thanks again everybody for your help! br> br>

I have a question that I have not really read or since in any google search on internet speeds.
Since, I am not allowed to have cable ip service. I have looked into other alternatives from dsl...err really there's only two wifi or satellite.
The thing is that I really dl alot of data in a day let alone over a months time, currently depending upon the applications I get a maximum of about 100kb/s that is from sharing a 1mb down and 385mb up connection.
If I were to get a satellite ip service it would cost more than cable at $80 a month...for 1.5kbps.
From that though would I get all of that bandwidth or would it be the same as dsl which is limited to 100kbps even though theres a 1mb download speed?

Whilst the speed that I am running is rather reminiscent of a scene out of the film " QUEST 4 Fire ", the internet speeds coming out of the Capital are an exact duplicate of everything that is wrong within the usa-north american tech sector.
There has been for a time access to very fast internet speed which allows Asian countries to have " UNEQUAL " access to information and use of technology at a rate that is 12x faster than http speeds.
And, more over 150x times faster than the average cable internet speeds (8000mb-average), while there have been internet satellites available at these speeds previously there are only available for spy use.
The Japanese satellite KIZUNA, which is in service in several Asian nations allows " CONSUMERS " 1.2 Gbps the G is giga=billion.
If you think 25000 or 100,000kbps is fast please spare me. Even at that rate all of you on here posting speeds are like 150x times slower than users in Asia.
Frankly, the Japanese;
Source: http://inventorspot.com/articles/jap...de_super_11016
have access to the most advanced technologies available today I mean the people not just the government(spy) organizations as is the cause in usa.
In other words what takes 1-day or a week for that matter to transfer file wise from certain sites i.e. torrentz(I know you have use them come on~!) the users of Kizuna can get all the faster; so long as the seeders are sending at equal speed.
Buffering will hardly be needed at that rate...imagine transfering your dna sequence and other vital medical histories to your doctor in the future within a few seconds allowing for complete treatment addressing you down to your atoms.
Yet we have usa politicos who talk about how america is so much better at everything...shiiiiii who do they think their fooling...hmm...the people~!?!

I'm tired, I'm weary. All I know is I just want You, time alone with You away from all the things of life that are distracting me. I don't want to just play church. Church! Usual is over. (Someone at a worship gathering Saturday night shared that the Lord spoke this to them recently.)
I'm done with formalities, so-called traditions & intense scheduled-ness! You can't put God in a box or hold Him to time constraints. He is outside of time.
I'm done with everything "as usual" — life, church & even me. I only want You, so engulfing me that I can't even breathe anything of myself & only You & what You ordain.
I want to partner with You, & I want to see others do so as well. I want to be at Your feet, worshiping You in spirit & in truth, in tears of joy or tears of heartache. No matter my weaknesses, may I be found worshiping You all the more because You love me no matter what. I want to pour out my love upon You even when I have nothing of worth to offer except that which You Yourself have given me.
I'm done with anything that isn't of You. I don't want to be poisoned by anything contrary to Your heart. I just want You, to be at Your feet on my face! I just want You!

11/30 The ring's the thing but …
Finishing in second did pay off for the Cubs. Major League Baseball announced Monday the Cubs' share of the players' postseason pool totaled $590,731.16, with each full share valued at $8,261.97. The Cubs, who finished second in the NL Central, awarded 58 full shares and 13.5 partial shares.
The St. Louis Cardinals, who won the Central, had a players' pool of $1,772,193.48 to draw from, and the value of each full share was $29,446.60.
The World Champion New York Yankees' share of the players pool was $21,266,321.79, and the value of each share was a record $365,052.73.
The players' pool is formed from 60 percent of the gate receipts from the first three games of the Division Series and 60 percent of the gate receipts from the first four games of the League Championship series and the World Series. The total was divided among 12 clubs: The World Series participants, the LCS and DS runners up, and the four regular season second-place clubs that were not Wild Card participants.
The Angels, the ALCS runners-up, awarded a full share to the estate of pitcher Nick Adenhart.

11/30 Winter ball update
Jake Fox went 3-for-5 Sunday for Licey with a double and two RBIs, and now is batting .350 with seven RBIs in five games in the Dominican Republic. In the Mexican League, Matt Camp went 4-for-5 on Saturday but was hitless in six at-bats Sunday for Mexicali. He's still batting .349 with 23 RBIs in 43 games.
Also in Mexico, outfielder Jim Adduci, added to the 40-man roster on Nov. 20, was batting .250 in nine games for Hermosillo. He has two homers and six RBIs.
Jeff Stevens also is pitching in Mexico for Mexicali, and has appeared in five games so far. On Sunday, he took the loss against Mazatlan. Stevens struck out four over two innings but also walked one and served up a two-run homer.
And, in Venezuela, Blake Lalli went 2-for-4 with a RBI on Sunday for Caribes. He's batting .353 in five games with one homer and three RBIs.

11/29 Looking ahead …
The Cubs were not expected to offer arbitration to Kevin Gregg, Rich Harden, Reed Johnson and Chad Fox by Tuesday's deadline.
A brief explanation (and I'll try to keep it simple): Teams that offer their free agents salary arbitration get Draft picks in return if the player signs elsewhere, and the number of picks is based on the player's rating. To get compensation, a team must offer arbitration to its Type A or B free agent and have that player either reject arbitration or sign before the deadline to reject the said arbitration.
The Elias Sports Bureau determines the designations based on statistical study. Gregg is a Type A free agent, Harden is Type B. Johnson and Fox are non-compensatory. So, if the Cubs did offer arbitration to Gregg and another team signed him, the Cubs could get two Draft picks. One would be a first-round pick from the signing team (if the team's pick is below the first 15 picks in the Draft) and a supplemental pick. The supplemental pick is a player taken between the first and second rounds.
If the signing team has a pick in the first 15 slots, the team that loses the free agent will get the signing team's second-round selection and the sandwich pick.A Type B free agent like Harden would be worth one Draft pick to the Cubs if he signs with another team. That pick is a supplemental pick.
Teams that do not offer salary arbitration to free agents who sign elsewhere get nothing in return.
Last year, the Cubs declined to offer arbitration to Kerry Wood, who then signed with the Cleveland Indians.
The upside for a team that does offer arbitration is the additional Draft pick or two. But if the Cubs did offer arbitration to Gregg or Harden, they also would be on the hook for at least a one-year contract at market value, which would likely be an increase from what the player earned the previous season if an offer is accepted. Gregg earned $4.2 million this year, Harden $7 million.
Gregg lost the closer's job in mid August to Carlos Marmol and the Cubs feel they have enough starting pitching to make up for Harden's expected exit. GM Jim Hendry has other positions to fill (center field, for example) and a budget.
If the players were offered arbitration, they would have until 10:59 p.m. CT on Dec. 7 to accept and can still negotiate with their former teams, even if they decline the offer. If the player accepts arbitration, the two sides can negotiate a deal but will go before an arbitrator if no agreement is reached.
We'll get official word on Tuesday.

11/29 Winter ball update
Jake Fox hit his first home run this winter on Saturday, a solo shot, for Licey in a 6-5 win over the Toros del Este in the Dominican Republic. In four games, Fox is 5-for-15 with one double and five RBIs.

In Mexico, outfielder Brad Snyder was batting .363 in 39 games with seven homers, 10 doubles and 35 RBIs. He went 2-for-2 on Saturday with one RBI. Teammate Matt Camp was batting .361 in 42 games with one homer, 15 doubles and 23 RBIs. Camp has played shortstop and center field for the Mexican League team.

11/27 Winter ball update
Jake Fox didn't waste any time. Fox traveled to the Dominican Republic on Monday to play for Licey, and in two games so far, he's 3-for-7 with a double and one RBI. Fox is playing left field and first base for the Tigres.

11/27 Spring Training
Some members of the Ricketts family will travel to Naples, Fla., this coming week to review possible Spring Training sites in Collier County. Meanwhile, Mesa Mayor Scott Smith told the East Valley (Ariz.) Tribune that the city should know within a few weeks whether the Cubs will keep their Spring Training facility in Arizona. The Ricketts family, who took over ownership of the Cubs in late October, toured Mesa the first week of November during the Cubs' organizational meetings and looked at possible sites.
According to the East Valley Tribune, Smith said the Ricketts family seemed pleased with several sites along the Loop 202 freeway in east Mesa. A new facility would likely cost $80 million and the project would be funded with yet to be determined mix of private and government monies.

11/24 D-Lee finishes 9th in NL MVP
Derrek Lee had an MVP season with the Cubs, but it wasn't enough to bump St. Louis slugger Albert Pujols from top honors in the National League.
Lee finished ninth in the balloting by the Baseball Writers Association of America with 66 total points, while Pujols was a unanimous selection for his third MVP award. Florida's Hanley Ramirez was second, followed by Philadelphia's Ryan Howard and Milwaukee's Prince Fielder.
Lee, who did receive one second-place vote among the 16 cast with his name on them, did set a career high with 111 RBIs in 141 games this season and led the team with a .306 batting average. The first baseman hit 35 home runs, his highest total since belting 46 in 2005. In 2005, Lee finished third in the MVP balloting.
— Carrie Muskat
11/23 Winter league update
Cubs infielder/outfielder Jake Fox was headed to the Dominican Republic on Monday to join Licey for the second half of the season. As for Cubs prospects currently playing, Brian Schlitter is 6-for-8 in save situations with Mexicali in the Mexican League. The right-hander from Park Ridge, Ill., whom the Cubs acquired from the Phillies in the Scott Eyre deal, has a 3.79 ERA.
Catcher Robinson Chirinos was batting .363 in 29 games with Magallanes in Venezuela. He has six homers and 20 RBIs in 29 games. Andres Blanco was batting .302 for Magallanes with 11 doubles, two triples, two homers and 25 RBIs. He's played second, short and third in 30 games. And outfielder Nelson Perez was batting .311 in 22 games with Toros del Este in the Dominican Republic.

11/23 Cubs host Thanksgiving dinner
The Cubs have teamed up with Chicago-based National Runaway Switchboard to provide a Thanksgiving dinner for runaway and homeless youth on Tuesday at St. Luke's Church in Chicago. It's the fourth straight year the Cubs have hosted the event.
National Runaway Switchboard's mission is to keep America's runaway and at-risk youth safe and off the streets. The organization operates a national communication system for runaway and homeless youth through its 1-800-RUNAWAY crisis hotline and www.1800RUNAWAY.org website. Youth and family members call the hotline to work through problems and to find local agencies and organizations to help.
Several members of the Cubs front office staff and WGN's Cubs television producer Bob Vorwald will volunteer at the event.
— Carrie Muskat
11/23 Reed Johnson update
Reed Johnson has had an eventful offseason already. The outfielder and his wife, Taryn, welcomed son Tyce into the world on Oct. 26.
Johnson is one of five Cubs players who filed for free agency, joining John Grabow, Kevin Gregg, Rich Harden, and Chad Fox. The team narrowed the list last Friday when it signed Grabow to a two-year deal. The Cubs had an exclusive 15-day window in which to negotiate with Johnson end on Friday, and he said he hasn't heard much from the team about returning.
"There's other things they're trying to take care of," Johnson said Monday. "My agent said usually teams let that 15-day period go past."
Johnson would like to come back, and the Cubs are looking for a center fielder and leadoff man.
"We'll see," he said.

Let's Keep Loving: The Case Against Too Much Self-Care
Self-care has become an idol for many of us. Don't get me wrong: we absolutely need to care for ourselves. Our bodies are a temple of the Holy Spirit. Neglecting that temple would be wrong. So yes, we need to care for it. But more than that, we need to pour ourselves out in love and honor the call of the Holy Spirit.
I am the first to take time to binge watch on Netflix in the name of self-care. Make-up is a passion of mine. I can spend hours pouring over a book while my kitchen sits dirty. Neglecting myself is not something I'm likely to do. Neglecting those around me is.
I suspect I am not alone. We are constantly inundated with articles and magazines selling us the idea that we need to focus on ourselves more. But as Christians, we need to stop and filter everything we read through the lens of Scripture.
When I look at what God has instructed His people to do, caring for themselves to a point of excess isn't at the top of the list. Caring for others is.
I don't need to be reminded to take care of myself. By nature, I am incredibly selfish. Even on the best of days, when I am serving another, it is often just to boost the general opinion others have of me. I want to be known as a good, Christian woman. I want diligence, graciousness, and selflessness to be words flowing off of people's tongues when asked about me, as long as it doesn't cost me much.
Maybe you're significantly more others-focused than I am but if I were to guess, I would imagine that there are many other people like me. People who, even on their best days, struggle to forget themselves for the sake of another.
But friends, we need to abandon ourselves in love.
John 15 tells us that there is no greater love than to lay down your life for a friend. That doesn't sound like self-care, but rather self-abandonment. We are not promised an easy life, we are promised a life of self-sacrifice. We are told to take up our cross if we want to follow Jesus. That means that our life is marked by service to others.
I'm not saying we need to burn the candle at both ends until we fall over with exhaustion, but we do need to think about why we are doing what we are doing. Are we trying to serve ourselves, working to make ourselves more appealing, or are we side-stepping the spotlight as we give ourselves in service for another? My actions should constantly be pointing to the person of Christ, not how admirable I am. I should fade into the background and live my life daily as the hands and feet of Christ to those around me.
This isn't something that just happens. It's something I have to work towards and remind myself of daily. It's something I fail in often. It's easier to serve publicly than it is to actually sacrifice the time I want to spend simply serving my family. But when I put aside my book and spend time lavishly loving another, that's when I act like Jesus and live out the calling He's placed on my life.
So keep going, friend. Remember that God rested on the seventh day but worked the other six, and keep loving big. Serve your neighbor even when it costs you. Remember the love that was given for you on Calvary, remember the blood that was shed, and give of yourself in the same manner.
Renew your mind daily. Put aside the self-centered tendencies of the world and seek the sacrifice of Christ. Follow in His footsteps daily. He has promised to fill you with Himself time and time again.

Leaky blood vessels in the brain called cerebral microbleeds are associated with an increased risk of physical and cognitive disability in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS).
Cerebral microbleeds become more common with age and are a known risk factor for dementia. They've also been associated with traumatic brain injury, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease.
University at Buffalo researchers decided to study cerebral microbleeds and MS because they saw significant overlap in the risk factors for each condition, says Robert Zivadinov, professor of neurology at the University at Buffalo.
The case-control study involved 445 patients with MS; 45 with clinically isolated syndrome, which is the first MS episode a patient experiences; 51 patients with other neurological diseases; and 177 healthy controls.
More Physical Disability
Senior author Ferdinand Schweser, assistant professor of neurology, said:
"We found that 20 percent of MS patients over the age of 50 have cerebral microbleeds compared to 7 percent of healthy controls."
Among subjects under the age of 50, 14 percent of patients with clinically isolated syndrome had microbleeds versus just 3 percent of healthy controls.
The more cerebral microbleeds a patient had, the more severe were their physical and cognitive outcomes. In particular, MS patients who had more cerebral microbleeds had more physical disability after adjusting for age, hypertension, and whole-brain volume.
"This is significant because it suggests that cerebral microbleeds are associated with increased physical disability in MS patients, independent from these additional risk factors for cerebral microbleeds," says Zivadinov.
Higher Cognitive Disability
In terms of cognitive disability, the researchers found that in the subgroup of MS patients who underwent neuropsychological testing, those with more cerebral microbleeds had higher disability on verbal and other cognitive function tests.
"Those MS patients who have cerebral microbleeds are subject to developing more physical and cognitive disabilities earlier in their disease, and therefore monitoring them more closely might be appropriate," Zivadinov notes.
Significant research is now being done on ways to combat cerebral microbleeds, Zivadinov adds, noting that currently, prevention of cardiovascular risk factors was seen as the best way to prevent their formation since there are no currently available target therapies.
The work was funded in part by the Buffalo Neuroimaging Analysis Center and the Jacquemin Family Foundation.

With its distinctive red label, this has established itself as one of the most reliable champagnes at the lower priced end of the market. Has excellent fine mousse and a complex bouquet of ripe fruit and yeasty brioche, the refined palate tightening the game with fresh apple and ripe citrus fruit, then a pleasingly dry finish. 93 out of 100, James Halliday, Weekend
The distinctive red label of the wine is frequently seen around the traps, partly because this is the cheapest Grand Marque brand. But it also has the legacy of master Champagne maker Daniel Thibault who redefined the style in the late 1980s, making it richer and fruitier. Strong straw-gold, it has a level of intensity greater than all others at its price point. Gently ripe stone fruit and a touch of brioche provide a supple mouthfeel and satisfying finish. $69.99. 93 points & Halliday's Top 100 – The Weekend Australian November 10-11, 2007
Piper-Heidsieck Cuvée Brut is an exceptionally well balanced champagne – fresh and lively, with light aromas of citrus fruits and spring flowers. Piper-Heidsieck cuvée Brut champagne brings its own lively, vivacious and exuberant character to dry champagne's traditional elegance and finesse. Piper-Heidsieck's cuvée Brut combines 50 rigorously selected growths. The wine's harmony develops over the course of slow ageing in Piper-Heidsieck's chalk cellars. Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier grapes give cuvée Brut its structure and elegance
Piper-Heidsieck boasts one of the largest selections of crus, which represents all the nuances of the Champagne terroir and includes both Grands Crus and Premiers Crus, a guarantee of the quality of the brand's different cuvées. Vinification has always been the perfect illustration of Piper-Heidsieck's know-how. Each cru and grape variety is vinified separately. Reserve wines from earlier years are used to create a more rounded blend and ensure the originality of the Piper-Heidsieck style. Everything depends on the art of blending, where human input is of paramount importance. The man in the shadows, the man of magic, is Régis Camus, Piper-Heidsieck's winemaker.
