We are very excited that Freddy Bird, ex-Head Chef at The Lido and Executive Chef at the Glassboat, in Bristol has very kindly agreed to join us for our next supper club on Wednesday April 3rd at The Station, Silver Street, Bristol.He has created an intriguing evening titled "Sharing my love of Levantine Food"
If you can picture fantastic freshly baked flatbread brushed with Za'atar, sumac flourished salads, sticky date molasses, saffron, rosewater and much much more ! Full menu to follow shortly!
This is a change our previously advertised event; following a recent bereavement Romy Gill is no longer available on the 3rd April for the 91 Ways supper club as planned. Our thoughts are with Romy and her family at this time and we wish her a safe trip to her family in India.
We are very grateful for Freddy stepping-in and very excited about the evening he has planned.
Freddy Bird grew up in the countryside in the South West, where he spent his days messing about on the River Chew, fishing and cooking his catch over the fires he built.
He later travelled and ate his way around the Mediterranean, Northern Spain and the Middle East before working in London at 2 Michelin star restaurant,The Square and then Moro.
Freddy returned to the South West to open the Lido in Bristol, where he has won critical acclaim with his distinct style of
cookery, which is a unique take on Moorish and Mediterranean cooking , with a strong focus on provenance.

One or more security cameras around a home can help improve security and can give the homeowner peace of mind when they're out and about working or traveling.
Most electronics stores sell security cameras. There are small models that look like webcams for indoor use. But just because it is small, that does not mean it does not need to do much.The opposite is true actually. A small camera should be able to pan 300 degrees and have a 120-degree tilt. Another useful tool is a microphone. It can pick up any nearby sounds. Many have speakers so you can talk to someone downstairs or soothe your crying baby without getting out of bed.
An outdoor camera needs to be a bit more rugged to endure the great outdoors and mother nature. An outdoor camera should be waterproof and have weatherproof housing and remote internet monitoring from any computer. Other features might include infrared LEDs for night vision and a 6mm lens for a 42-degree viewing angle.
If you want to keep track of the house while you are away, both indoor and outdoor cameras are compatible with many excellent apps for smartphones like IP Cam Viewer, Drop Cam, and Live Cams Pro.
If you want to secure a small condo or apartment, a simple wireless camera will do the trick. It will also save the higher cost of installing a traditional surveillance system.
When it comes right down to it, the mere presence of a surveillance camera can help prevent everything from a residential home invasion to business vandalism.
It can provide evidence if a crime does happen. Video surveillance has been helpful in the conviction of many criminals.
When looking for a security camera, there is a lot to consider. Check out this guide for the Best Security Cameras for 2018 to help make the decision-making process a little easier.

Hi Friends!
Long time no talk. I've been in the process of making some changes to the site lately and it's taking me a bit longer than anticipated to get everything set up. My lack of technical expertise is definitely slowing things down a bit. 😂😂😂
But don't despair, I will be back, and better than ever (I hope), again soon with regular posts. In the meantime, there will be a few days when Pineapples & Pilates won't bear available. No worries though, I am aware of the downtime and (fingers-crossed) it will be temporary and short-lived.
As always, thanks for reading! And have a great week!

The acronym EDM is derived from Electrical Discharge Machining.
The EDM process we know today started with the observations of Joseph Priestly in 1770. He noticed that electrical discharges had removed material from the electrodes in his experiments. This is also known as electro-discharge erosion.
In the 1940's two Soviet researchers, the Lazarenkos, developed a machining process that formed the foundation for modern EDM.
Electric Discharge Machining
The basic EDM process is really quite simple. An electrical spark is created between an electrode and a workpiece. The spark is visible evidence of the flow of electricity. This electric spark produces intense heat with temperatures reaching 8000 to 12000 degrees Celsius, melting almost anything. The spark is very carefully controlled and localized so that it only affects the surface of the material. The EDM process usually does not affect the heat treat below the surface. With wire EDM the spark always takes place in the dielectric of deionized water. The conductivity of the water is carefully controlled making an excellent environment for the EDM process. The water acts as a coolant and flushes away the eroded metal particles.
Wire Cutting
Wire cutting EDM uses a metallic wire to cut a programmed contour in a workpiece. Extrusion dies and blanking punches are very often machined by wire cutting. Cutting is always through the entire workpiece. To start machining it is first necessary to drill a hole in the workpiece or start from the edge. On the machining area, each discharge creates a crater in the workpiece and an impact on the tool. The wire can be inclined, thus making it possible to make parts with taper or with different profiles at the top and bottom. There is never any mechanical contact between the electrode and workpiece (see above). The wire is usually made of brass or stratified copper, and is between 0.1 and 0.3 mm diameter.
Depending on the accuracy and surface finish needed, a part will either be one cut or it will be roughed and skimmed. On a one cut the wire ideally passes through a solid part and drops a slug or scrap piece when it is done. This will give adequate accuracy for some jobs, but most of the time, skimming is necessary. A skim cut is where the wire is passed back over the roughed surface again with a lower power setting and low pressure flush. There can be from one to nine skim passes depending on the accuracy and surface finish required. Usually there are just two skim passes. A skim pass can remove as much as 0.002″ of material or a as little as 0.0001″. During roughing (i.e. the first cut) the water is forced into the cut at high pressure in order to provide plenty of cooling and eliminate eroded particles as fast as possible. During skimming (accuracy / finish cuts) the water is gently flowed over the burn so as not to deflect the wire.
If you want to learn more information about EDM machines, please visit Excetek Technologies Co., Ltd. They provide best quality wire cutting EDM machines, die sinking EDM machines, and small hole drilling EDM machines. Feel free to send inquiry or contact Excetek to obtain further details about Electro Discharge Machining.

There are two new advertisement missions available this week on Poptropica. One is for the upcoming movie, The Spy Next Door. You need to be between the ages of 6-11 to see this mission and you'll find it on Main Street in the first few islands, like Early Poptropica and Shark Tooth Island. This is a simple timed mission where you have to rescue several kids and a pig and then set some traps for spies who are about to invade the house. Yes, you read that right. You have to save a pig.
This is a pretty easy mission to do. Go inside the mission and talk to the kid standing just inside. He's the babysitter and he needs your help. Then you can click on the Start button to begin and you'll have 60 seconds. Head to the right and set the trap on the TV. To set the trap, click on the TV and hold the mouse button down until the progress bar fills up completely. Then run to the right and get the first kid, who's over in the kitchen. Now just make your way up the different staircases and set the remaining two traps and find the other kids. Oh, and the pig!
The video walkthrough here shows you exactly where to find everyone and set up the traps.
The rewards for completing the mission are a pass that gets you into a special spy room. There isn't much to do there besides watch a trailer for the movie. Hmmm, I guess that's exactly what they want us to do! LOL. The other item you get is pretty cool. It's a flamethrower. You can hold it and then it shoots a little bit of flame when you press the spacebar.

The Crimson Tide is Turning
You're seeing the mainstream media narrative about Trump and Russia collapse before your eyes. And the usual talking heads who had Trump guilty until proven innocent are now pumping the breaks before these investigations take down their own party. As it turns out, President Trump isn't under investigation. But Loretta Lynch and Bernie Sanders are. And former president Obama has a whole lot of explaining to do.

Over the weekend, Warner Bros. released the first glimpse of Joaquin Phoenix styled as the Joker, ahead of a planned origin film for the iconic Batman villain set to be released in 2019. As a recut of the Guess Who's "Laughing" plays, the camera slowly zooms in on a normally dressed Phoenix with flashes of the Joker character overlaid to the strum of the guitar. The view cuts to a few seconds of Phoenix in full makeup — he smiles and raises an eyebrow, before his face returns to a stark expression. There have been manic Jokers, wacky Jokers, campy Jokers, dark Jokers — Phoenix's, at least for now, looks like a sad Joker.
Of course, this clip inspired a wave of commentary about Phoenix in the role, and yet another round of "Which Joker is the best" conversations. But more importantly: Which Joker is the creepiest clown? And why are clowns so terrifying to begin with? The Outline asked some experts questions about the live-action film adaptations of the Joker, spanning the decades from Cesar Romero to Heath Ledger to Phoenix.

Why do clowns scare people?
Dr. Frank T. McAndrew, Cornelia H. Dudley Professor of Psychology at Knox College: I think it is not so much that clowns scare people as it is that clowns creep people out. My research on creepiness indicates that it is the uncertainty as to whether or not someone poses a threat that makes them seem creepy. So clowns, who appear to be happy and fun, ought not to be a threat — except that they have very a very weird physical appearance and are outside of the ordinary in so many ways that it makes them unpredictable. After all, if they are willing to violate certain standards of dress and behavior, what other things might they be willing to do?
Dr. Glenn Geher, Professor of Psychology and Founding Director of Evolutionary Studies at the State University of New York at New Paltz: Clowning is among the very few professions in which one's identity is necessarily de-identified. If you're a teacher, everyone calls you Mr. or Ms. So-and-so and it's clear who you are at all times. That is also true if you are a sales clerk (who usually will have a name badge), doctor (who will usually have a large diploma featuring his or her name on the office wall), business person, dentist, lawyer, etc. We like to know who people are. That's part of the evolutionary design of the human mind.
We don't know who this person is, and thus we don't know if this person can be trusted. Many social psychological studies have demonstrated that people are more likely to engage in all kinds of anti-social, nasty behavior when their identities are hidden. Think about members of the KKK and the kinds of atrocities that they have carried out across history. The fact that they wear hoods is no coincidence.
Randy Christensen, Master Clown and professional entertainer and speaker: As as family-friendly performer from the base that wants to help people enjoy the comedy character of clowning, I can say that the horror genre has impacted the general society's view of the lovable, funny, child-friendly clown. I "get" that for many there is a fine line between "fear" and "excitement." Both can get the heart racing. Both make the adrenaline pump. When one is going to get on a roller coaster, is that person "excited," or "afraid"? Maybe a little of both. Thus the venues for horror depictions seem to continue to thrive.
Here's where I have a struggle: I love clowning. I've seen so many positive interactions and fun, playful, experiences of wonder happen as a result of good family-friendly clowning. I don't see that with the "horror character" depictions of clowns. I can't tell you the numerous times I've had people at their first view (before any interaction) say, "I hate clowns." Honestly, it makes me sad.
What's creepy about the Joker in particular?
Geher: The Joker is unsettling partly because he is a bad clown. Many people are afraid of so-called "good" clowns. So if you have a scary-looking clown who's is explicitly and unabashedly evil, I'd say you should be scared of that guy!
The scarred mouth and the blood-like implications of the makeup certainly add to the effect. Under ancestral conditions, blood would have always been a signal of some kind of survival threat. In an immediate sense, blood suggests life-threatening bodily injury. And blood is capable of transmitting various diseases. Add this to the de-identified features of a clown, and there you have it. Scary stuff!
McAndrew: The explicit horror elements add a nice touch. The name itself — "The Joker" — implies harmless, light-hearted fun, and all of the Joker characters have smiles literally painted on their faces, so why wouldn't we think they are happy and harmless? The problem with clowns in general and with the Joker in particular is that the makeup disguises who the person really is, and also disguises what he is really feeling or intending. The incongruity between what we see and what we fear creeps us out.
Christensen: The Joker is quite a conundrum. As an audience member, I can say that Heath Ledger's portrayal was one of my favorite "evil villains" of all time.
Why do you think there's so much room to play around with the Joker visually?
Evan Narcisse, journalist and Rise of the Black Panther writer: There's so much room to continually reinterpret the Joker in live-action adaptations because he's constantly being reinterpreted in the comics. These aren't always one-to-one homages to stuff that's been in the comics. In his first 20 years, the Joker changed from being a very dark, ominous criminal to being more of a prankster, then back to being someone who could generally scare you… You go from there to the '70s, he's gone from scary to campy and back to scary again. From then on, it was always a character that new creators wanted to try and put their own stamp on.
Dan Rebert, special makeup, props, and creature effects expert: The Joker's probably Batman's most well-known adversary. He's not like Michael Myers or Jason Vorhees. He's a bad guy that has a lot of character and personality. In terms of changing the look, the Batman movies, the TV series, they varied in tone quite a bit. I mean, Tim Burton's stuff was more, you know, Tim Burton — a more fairytale/fable kind of version — where Christopher Nolan's stuff is more gritty and real. So I think the Joker's looks are dictated by the tone of the movie.
Why do artists keep coming back to particular design elements in the Joker's design?
Rebert: I think the whole look of the Joker came initially from a standard set of playing cards. You would see the Joker through most of the movies and TV shows leaves a playing card. In terms of kind of keeping with that prop element and that storytelling element that they use, they're kind of locked in. Everyone knows what a joker looks like in a deck of playing cards, so you kind of have to start with that as as a baseline.
Narcisse: The white skin is a constant because it makes him seem ghastly, phantasmagorical, and otherworldly. It makes him seem obviously like a circus clown, right, but the way it's presented with the joker is like, oh, this is not just face paint; this is all over his body. This guy is he's like an avatar of death. The green hair, you know, obviously has circus clown influences — but you know, there's an element of sickliness to that particular color choice, communicating that he's outside the normal moral parameters that we all operate in. I think the idea about his visual appearance is always to be like, this is a guy outside of society's boundaries.
Cesar Romero (1966's Batman: The Movie)
Geher: I grew up with this one!
Rebert: The original Batman TV show was kind of campy and fun. I honestly don't think they put a lot of thought into what the Joker design would be like. Probably the guy who did the makeup found out about it that day like "Hey, put a Joker makeup on this guy." It's not like today where hundreds of thousands of dollars are spent with artists designing what the Joker's going to look like for their big-budget movie. It was fine for the tone of the show. I really don't think much thought was — I don't think there was meetings being held about how the Joker's makeup was on the 1960s show.
McAndrew: Cesar Romero's Joker is the least creepy. It is almost cartoonish, and in keeping with the campiness of the Batman show he appeared on, the creep factor has been dialed down.
Christensen: From a professional clown's approach, this makeup design works because he uses the normal features that move on a face. He's a jokester who's over-exuberance is displayed through his bright eyes and laughing smile.
Narcisse: I like the Cesar Romero Joker a lot. He was the first one I remember seeing in live-action. I think the reason his performance endures — and one of the things I liked most about it — is because it's a reminder of the Joker's theatricality; he played it big, he played it broad, he played it slightly manic, and it was a reminder of how the character was portrayed in the comics. Because the Joker always had these elaborate schemes, and he wanted attention, and Romero played that character. There's the inherent goofiness of painting over his mustache because he didn't want to shave it for the role, which feels like this weird meta joke, which it probably wasn't at the time but, as the decades have passed, has become one, and I think that's always hilarious when you look at him playing that part. This may be a marker of how old I am, but whenever I see his picture, I think of the musical stinger that was associated with him in the TV show — and it was always like, you knew some Joker shit was about to pop off, and it was gonna be very funny.
Jack Nicholson (1989's Batman)
Christensen: Jack Nicholson's makeup design is clean, clear-cut, specific. Historic traditionalists still say the "whiteface clown" is the one that takes charge and gives the orders. He is mischievous, but he's in control.
Rebert: Without a doubt, the makeup on Jack Nicholson, which was designed by Rick Baker, is technically the best and most elaborate Joker makeup we've seen. It involves facial prosthetics, and also facial prosthetics that incorporate pull tabs into the corners of his mouth so his mouth's actually distorted with prosthetics covering that rig. Everything about it is technically perfect. It's a high-end makeup. It works — Jack Nicholson was able to speak and show emotion through it. He hated wearing it. So yeah, [on a technical level], that is the best one. As a makeup artist, I really don't know that you can do a makeup like that any better than it was done on Jack Nicholson.
Geher: Cannot get creepier than Jack!
Narcisse: The Jack Nicholson version of the character from the Burton movie was interesting because it was really garish, you know, that smile seems painful. You always talk about the rictus of death, and it always seemed like his face was stuck like that, and it made it seem really frightening. The thing about Jack Nicholson's portrayal is that he made the Joker feel primal — like this force of nature that was always bubbling inside one man or multiple people that just came out after his encounter with the macabre, with Batman — like a spirit that haunts you. There was some slapstick and some bigger broader notes in his performance, but there was this weird undercurrent of him tapping into something primeval that was creepy.
McAndrew: Nicholson's Joker is more of a self-interested psychopath that in many ways is more predictably evil and dangerous—but maybe not as creepy. He is probably the most Donald Trumpish of the group.
Heath Ledger (2008's The Dark Knight)
Christensen: This Joker image barks something totally different from Nicholson's. This guy is rough and on the edge. Nicholson's makeup application was pristine. Ledger's shows an out-of-controlness and commitment to nonconformity with this patchy smearing. There are no fine lines... which is also a clear portrayal of his psyche.
Narcisse: It's so hard to talk about Heath Ledger because it set this ridiculous standard for everything that followed, you know? This Joker does not seem mentally unstable—he seems calculated; despite the fact that he says he doesn't plan things, his methodology may not be calculated but his end goal — to sow chaos — is. Everything about the approach to the makeup for him — his hair, his clothes — he seemed like he could have rolled off the street. But at the same time, the fact that you don't know anything about his origins makes him seem more scary. That's one of the boldest things that Nolan did with that movie. He just shows up, like he's always been around.
McAndrew: Heath Ledger's seems genuinely troubled and perhaps mentally deranged, making him more of a potential danger. The character is very dark.
Rebert: Heath Ledger as the Joker is probably my favorite and probably the only movie I really liked with the Joker in it. The makeup's fairly simple but very well done. It's very grounded in realism with more natural scarring. I also like the fact that it's really messy — it really comes off like he did it himself, which is harder to pull off than you may think because we're so used to doing controlled stuff. And when you're trying to do controlled mess and match it in continuity every day — I mean definitely, that makeup deserves credit. It's a more difficult makeup than it would come off, and I'm not saying that because the prosthetics — the prosthetics on it are pretty prosthetics 101 — but keeping that continuity and keeping that look that is an insane man is putting this on his face you know. So I think the makeup is very well done. As a character, that was definitely the scariest Joker. I was never scared of the Joker in any other movie.
Jared Leto (2016's Suicide Squad)
Narcisse: The Jared Leto iteration is my least favorite so far. It just seems so calculated — like it's an edgelord, try hard conglomerate of what an outsider, dangerous identity is supposed to look like. You have diamond fronts, this garish tattoo work that is all way too didactically self-obsessed. The Joker doesn't tattoo "Joker" on his own face or body. He doesn't tattoo the messages about who he is on his own body. His actions and his words do that. You know what I'm saying? It just seems really try hard. It just didn't move me that much. He just didn't have that kind of like je ne sais quoi that makes a good Joker performance. He never really seemed unhinged. The truest note he struck in his performance was him being a dick to Harley, and even that is a latter-day layer added to the character added from Batman: The Animated Series. Everything else was like, you're being a crime lord in the exact same way that other crime lords have done this in cinema. There's a little bit of Scarface there, a little bit of Al Capone, but the Joker's supposed to be more than that.
Christensen: Makeup is unnecessary. He chooses to put it on like a person chooses to wear a hat. It's simply an accessory he chooses to use when he wants as a demonstration to the public: like someone changing lipstick or eyeshadow. For him, it's about style more than a necessity. Some say that when one puts on the clown makeup, it allows a person to "let the real you out without inhibition." With Leto, that can be a scary thing.
Geher: Ick — too creepy!
Rebert: You know, I thought that was just fine. I know a lot of fans had a lot of outcry because it kind of went in a completely different direction than anything we've seen before. Personally, I didn't mind it. I didn't think it worked poorly in the movie. The DC movies seem to be a little all over the place in terms of — it's really hard to blame any makeup or any actor for anything going on in a DC movie. It was done well and probably fits with more of what kids today are looking for in the look of a bad guy. I mean, I grew up in the '80s. If you were to put something like that out in the '80s, you know, church groups would have been going berserk. It would have been way too kind of homoerotic — the Batman movie would have been playing at midnight on a double bill with Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Joaquin Phoenix (2019's Joker)
McAndrew: [Phoenix's Joker] presses all the same buttons as the Ledger Joker.
Narcisse: What I hope is that they just really go far field here. It'd be great if this movie didn't have Batman at all. The challenge facing DC and Warner Brothers now is that they have to break from a formula that has failed to find its footing and move toward something that's more auteur-driven, probably, and gives people something that they haven't seen, or at the very least an amalgam of stuff that's interesting unto and of itself, not just because it reminds you of the comics—something that feels like it's coming from somewhere else. There's an old Denny O'Neil quote from decades back: "You have to bring something to comics from outside of comics." That's what I hope this Joaquin Phoenix movie does. The look is interesting because it feels like it's out of a sad clown painting from like the '60s — those kitschy paintings that are also like, a little bit scary, like a little bit of John Wayne Gacy in there — it looks like it's gonna be a retro, '70s grindhouse-influenced affair. I just hope it manages to be surprising.
Christensen: Blotchy makeup application. Shows a lack of control... also one that has "no lines." It'll be interesting to see how this character hits the screens.
Rebert: It kind of goes back to what they were doing with Heath Ledger with looking like an insane man is putting the makeup on himself Comparing the two side by side as makeups, I definitely like the Heath Ledger one better. It looks rougher and dirtier, and it looks scarier. I'm curious to see what Joaquin Phoenix does with it, though. As a makeup, it's obviously nothing technically hard, what's on Joaquin Phoenix, but what he does with it, what he brings to life with it, I think, could really change the way audiences perceive that makeup. I just hope they have a good script for him.

Had to be Will Power. Not a fan of his to be honest. Friggin clown yells "show me some MFing respect" as he crossed the bricks. Great driver, don't get me wrong.
Anyway, I think there was some struggle with the new aero kits... less downforce caused some guys to get into the wall. James Davison was a gd disaster and should have been pulled off the effing track. The way Sato collided with him reminded me of Dixon hitting the left rear tire of Howard last year and going for a short flight. I don't know why race control didn't park him it was only a matter of time. Just glad someone did get killed (also Davison is the jagoff that talked crap about Hinch on Bump Day). Really bummed to see Karam have something break on his car, not a driver error and he was up to something like 6th or 7th. Rossi was doing flat out absurd things in that car; I thought he was going to win. I had picked TK and he looked great until he had a tire puncture; just ruined his day. Story of the day for me was actually Wilson getting up to the front. Heartbreaking seeing him head to the pits but he did a fantastic job and would have won if he caught a yellow up front. Would have been one unbelievable story.
Lastly, found it very interesting that Alonso was tweeting quite a bit on Sunday afternoon and it was all pro-Indy and had some commentary on Rossi's insane drive. I believe he'll be back in Indy for 2019. I believe Helio will get one last shot too. I'm gearing up for another road trip out there next May.

I enjoyed reading this book. Here are a few of the things I learned.
- Forgiveness is not a feeling. Forgiveness is a choice to end the cycle of revenge and leave justice in the hands of God.
- Forgiveness seems to have the capacity to alter suffering from something that is purely destructive to something that has profound redemptive qualities.
- Unforgiveness has a devastating way of eliminating new possibilities. Everything remains chained to the past, and the suffered injustice becomes the single informing event in the life of the embittered soul.
- The way of forgives does not forget the past, but through truth and reconciliation it finds a way beyond toxic memory. It is the way of restorative justice.

|RIS Bouteina episode
|"Spoiled Rotten"
|Season 3
|episode chronology
|Previous episode:
|"Love Plan"
|Next episode:
|"Humans, Romulans and Space-Beasts"
Spoiled Rotten is the finale of the third RIS Bouteina season.
The Hydran Keepership has lost control over their most advanced starship. Upon arriving, the RIS Bouteina scans the ship and realizes that there are more children onboard than adults.
Act OneEdit
For the first time in their lives, the crew of the Bouteina observed space shells in an asteroid field. Many onboard believe that they are legends but Annika Hansen reassures them that, if they don't provoke them they won't do anything. As they maintain safe distance, the ship is hailed by the HMS Pinafore, stating that an emergency arose. The Keepership lost the control of the HMS Sovereign (a Shogun-class ship) and they call on every ship in range to retake the ship, last seen in the Rallitir system. En route to the Rallitir system, Brianna Reiss opens a channel to the hijacked ship and she poses as a superheroine.
Act TwoEdit
Brianna had to protect herself from Hydran telepathy while her sidekick, as Defender of Malachor, the operations chief petty officer, warned her of the Hydran trap as she ordered the Sovereign scanned, only to find that there are 777 children and no grownup left onboard. Ensign Terenar prepares the "superheroine"'s mission and, once beamed in the Hydran ship, they find out that the life support systems can support 16,500 people as the Hydran children came to them. These children explained that they killed their parents because they were too hard on them. Brianna promised these spoiled kids that food was underway.
Act ThreeEdit
Brianna then asked the Cardassian chef to cook some food for the Hydran kids. Damar then proceeds to cook three-cup tribbles, with the intent of turning off Hydrans. However, the Hydran child gets disgruntled because food was late and he got arrested after fighting Brianna. She requests EMHs from the mothership and the other crewmen to come onboard. Annika decides that they would counter-hijack the Sovereign themselves by planting tricestium, a cure for the child-king syndrome, into their ice cream and eventually bring the children to an orphanage, Starbase 94. Their plan resulted in a lineup of spoiled children before the replicators.
Act FourEdit
When the other crewmen arrived on the hijacked Hydran ship, Brianna is faced with a rowdy child that only wanted to eat a steak rather than tribbles. That kid then fights Grommell and the child is placed under arrest as well. Taev Radaik then hacks into the replicator computer to get the tricestium added into the ice cream and then, Brianna sends the EMHs on their way. Down to the bridge, Annika and Brianna lay in a course for SB94 and, while the 777 kids are eating their ice cream, both the Romulan dreadnought and the Hydran heavy explorer warp out of the Rallitir system, flying at maximum warp because of Otto Mann.
Act FiveEdit
Upon arriving at Starbase 94, the crews contact His Highness to report the successful recapture of the Sovereign. They have to explain that they planted tricestium in the kids' ice cream and that they have arrested two of them for troubling public order. Also, the non-Hydran people in the Sovereign were taken off-ship and Annika felt guilty of not going in earlier. Also, Brianna promotes Grommell in the sickbay and learns that she has beaten Vox'ula to promoting Grommell, after field-promoting him to erein. Finally, Grommell mused that his last away mission wasn't quite a mission for superheroes.

BRICK KILN near MINNINGLOW - SK201572
The brick works took advantage of the geological anomaly of a pocket silica pit close by and was able to use the Cromford and High Peak Railway to transport the finished product to distant markets. With the abolition of the Brick Tax in 1850 brick works were set up in many places along the railway.
The works does not appear on the first edition of the 1840 Ordnance Survey, is recorded on the second edition in 1899 and marked as unused by the third edition of 1910.
There were two kilns, ancillary buildings and a railway siding.
Roystone Grange by Richard Hodges p135-141 gives a detailed account of the brickworks its operation and archaeological excavation.

The accident happened in front of Heritage High School last week. Mark Julian, 30, is suspected of the causing the fatal wreck. The mother of two was killed by a suspected drunk driver.
"Her light had turned green leaving the school and she proceeded to go. That is when someone ran the red light, going the other direction, and broadsided them going 70 mph," said family friend Trish Harris.
Terri Keller's daughter Amanda, who is in the 4th grade, was also in the car and is now in a coma, fighting for her life.
"She is still fighting for her life in the hospital. She is in a coma and has serious damage to her head. We just pray everyday that goes by is a sign that hopefully she is getting better and better," Harris said.
Alexis Keller also suffered major injuries. She has a broken disk in her back and a ruptured spleen. She says everyone at school and the people close to her family have helped her through this.
"I never knew that I had so many people that love me until this happened," said Alexis Keller.
"You read about it and you hear about it, but it happens and it is real. It is right here and it is very surreal. Do not drink and drive," said Harris.

Day 68 Sunday, October 9
After two days of live racing were ready to hit the road. We're going to head out of Cicero, going south on I-55 before getting off on I-294 and heading into Homewood. Homewood was the second and final site for Historic Washington Park, which held racing from 1926 to 1977. Starting out as a thoroughbred track, Washington Park switched to harness racing in 1962. The massive plant welcomed over 30,000 fans for opening night. Only once in 1970, did thoroughbreds appear again on the track. In 1977 Mrs. O'Leary's cow came calling and the grandstand was reduced to ashes, never to be rebuilt. In Homewood at the corner of Halsted Street and Maple Avenue, there is a small plaque in the Best Buy parking lot commemorating Washington Park, if you follow Maple Avenue a bit on the left you come to Presidents Drive, its a dead end but about half way you would be it the grandstand, if it were still there. Next it's off to recently deceased Balmoral Park.
From Homewood, we head south on IL-1, the South Dixie Highway for about a half hour until we come to Crete, the home of Balmoral Park. Starting out as Lincoln Fields back in 1926, this track never seemed like it fit in, maybe it was just a little too far from Chicago? Lincoln Fields did OK till it was shut down for World War II, in 1952 the grandstand got a visit from Mrs. O'Leary's cow and after being rebuilt it was sold in 1955 and renamed Balmoral Park, but that didn't stop the problems. For many years the Balmoral thoroughbred dates were moved to other Chicago area tracks. In 1991 thoroughbreds were eliminated and Balmoral became a standardbred venue, which is how it stayed till 2015, when it was shuttered. Lincoln Fields was one of the tracks used in the con, in the movie "The Sting" another oddity, how many half mile thoroughbred tracks are turned into mile harness tracks? The fate of Balmoral may still be in the air but our next stop isn't.
Leaving Crete we're going to hook up with I-80 for about a three hour drive to East Moline, the home of Quad City Downs. Opened in 1973 as East Moline Downs, it was going to provide harness and thoroughbred racing for the fans in Northwest Illinois and Eastern Iowa. It did provide harness racing for twenty years but the runners didn't fair too well, the inaugural meet shut down a month early never to return. Closed for over twenty years the track is still there, until recently it was an OTB outlet for Churchill Downs, but with no movement on gaming for Illinois tracks, they finally shuttered the place, so who knows it's future. For now it's still there to see, so take a look before we meet in St. Louis.
Well it's more like East St. Louis, but if you want to cross the Mississippi again The Gateway Arch is there for a tourist alert. We leave East Moline heading south on I-74 to I-55, which around four hours later gets us to Collinsville, the site of Fairmount Park. Opened way back in 1925, Fairmount Park keeps beating the odds and the riverboat casinos, keeping it's doors open for over ninety years. The poor step child of Chicago racing, Fairmount Park has been racing under the lights since 1947, and up to 1999 ran both a harness and standardbred meet and yes nothing is sacred in Illinois, Mrs. O'Leary and her cow made a road trip here in 1974. Season's over here but simulcasting is available so no problem getting in. From here our final stop for today is only a few minutes away at the sister track that didn't fair to well.
There is a Cahokia, Illinois famous for it's Indian mounds and there was Cahokia Downs, but that's officially listed in East St. Louis. Lasting for twenty years between 1954 and 1974 Cahokia Downs split harness and thoroughbred dates with Fairmount Park. Today, after forty years there isn't much to see, but if you get of I-55 at New Missouri Avenue going south you will see a Flying J truck stop. The street it's on is Racehorse Drive which in a few feet intersects with Harness Lane, if you get out of the car there, it's a good chance your standing around where the eight pole was. Not really known for family outings, it was said to be a good day if only your hubcaps were missing, not the whole car when you left the track. Two men were actually blown up in the parking lot one night when they started their car. On a happy note both Dave Johnson and Tom Durken got their starts at Cahokia Downs. We'll stay around here tonight, but definitely not in the parking lot, before continuing east in the morning.
|Day 68
Day 69 Monday, October 10
We're leaving the St. Louis area heading east on I-64 through Illinois and Indiana, when we hit exit 25A we take US-41 into Henderson, Kentucky the home of Ellis Park. A family owned track since 1922, Ellis Park has a unique history. The natural border between Indiana and Kentucky is the Ohio River, but Ellis Park is north of the river and even has an Indiana Area Code. It seems that after 1792 when the boundary was set, that the Ohio River changed course, but the original boundary remained. Racing is conducted in the summer and the track runs on both the Forth of July and Labor Day, which is traditionally closing day. Rumored to be closing after the 2010 season, Ellis Park has added instant wagering, to supplement simulcasting to offer horse players a year round venue. We probably came in the Indiana entrance, but we'll exit the Kentucky, but keep a lookout the next track comes up fast.
Shortly after crossing the river we need to turn off on Stratman Road, a few years ago there was a big arrow that pointed to Riverside Downs, but that is gone now. If you stay on Stratman Road you eventually come to Riverside Downs, or as it was called in the old days Audubon Raceway. Mostly known as a local harness track, it also went by Midwest Harness and Western Kentucky Harness Raceway. Over the years standardbreds, thoroughbreds and quarter horses shared the stage in Henderson. Today the track still sits on the Banks of the Ohio, but has been closed as a training facility for a few years now. Hopefully we can get close for a good look before heading to Paducah.
From Henderson we're going to continue south on US-41, till we come to I-69 which we take west to I-24 and in about two hours we arrive in Paducah. In the western part of the town we find Players Bluegrass Downs, which opened as a quarter horse track in 1984, switched to thoroughbreds in 1993 and finally to standardbreds in 1998, which still run today. Racing is held for about a month in early summer, with live racing on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Simulcasting is available year round, Wednesday to Sunday, today being Monday we're out of luck. It looks like we should be able to get a good look at the small glass enclosed grandstand and clubhouse before heading for the Tennessee border.
Getting to the last stop of the day is going to look a little familiar, as we backtrack on I-24 and US-41 to Hopkinsville, from there it's east on US-68 till the town of Russellville, where we take KY-100 south into Franklin. Unless you've been to Europe, you have never seen a place like this. Opened in 1990 on land where I guess people went to kill each other, it was called Dueling Grounds and ran one day of steeplechase racing over it's British style turf course. In 1993, thoroughbreds took over and the meet was expanded to seven days. After an ownership change the track was renamed Kentucky Downs in 1998. Today with the help of simulcasting and instant wagering, Kentucky Downs is one of the most successful tracks in the state, despite only racing four days in the fall. It probably doesn't hurt that it's only a mile or so from Tennessee, which has on gambling at all. That's it for today, tomorrow we head for a place where the average daily handle is about twenty bucks a day.
|Day 69
Day 70 Tuesday, October 11
We start the day heading north on I-65, but after about forty miles, that's it for the Interstates. At exit 43 we turn off on The Louie B Nunn Cumberland Parkway, or KY-90, till we pick up The Hal Rogers Parkway or KY-90 which should get us to Prestonsburg, after about five hours. Once we get to town we still have to navigate a winding KY-321 for about five miles till we come to Thunder Ridge. This half mile harness venue opened in 1994 and features an open air grandstand that seats 3,000 and allegedly a clubhouse that seats 282. It is said the nightly handle is twenty dollars, so it won't be easy to blend in here, you might be the only one there. Like Bluegrass Downs, Thunder Ridge runs for about a month in the spring, with racing three nights a week. Simulcasting is available Wednesday to Sunday. It was rumored that Thunder Ridge was done after 2015, it was being bought by Keeneland, which was going to turn it into a quarter horse track and betting parlor, but the harness horses showed back up in 2016, so who knows? No matter what you probably won't forget your visit here. Tomorrow you will have no problem blending in.
|Day 70
Day 71 Wednesday, October 12
We're going to leave Prestonsburg heading west on KY-9009 and eventually to I-64, which take's us to Lexington and the heart of horse country in Kentucky. After the two hour trip, our first stop is pretty much in downtown Lexington, at The Red Mile. Opened way back in 1875, the track gets it's name from the bright red racing surface. The Red Mile has also added Instant Racing to supplement simulcasting and make the facility a year round destination. Live racing occurs towards the fall, with The Grand Circuit filling out the last two weeks. When you enter the track you will notice the old round barn, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is still used for special functions. Enjoy the nostalgia, take a look around, don't dally we've got some first class live racing a few miles away. Before we leave a tourist alert, not far from here is the Kentucky Horse Farm, a working farm it has had many famous thoroughbred and standardbreds stabled here after their retirement, worth a look.
Today we get first class racing at a first class facility, Keeneland. Opened in 1936, it may not have the years other tracks have, but it does have the class, it was listed as a National Historic Landmark in 1986. Keeneland is as modern as a track you'll find, but it maintains it's classic look from when it was built. Keeneland was one of the first tracks to install a synthetic surface to it's one and one eight mile oval, which encloses a seven and a half furlong turf course. Keeneland holds two short meets a year, one in the spring and one in the fall, no matter when you attend, it's all about tradition here. The only thing I can compare it to is a day at Saratoga. Keeneland did'nt even have an announcer until 1997, the track is also the site of the Keeneland Sales. Enjoy today, tomorrow we go from tradition to commercial.
|Day 71
Day 72 Thursday, October 13
We probably could have stayed another day, spent some quality time at the horse park and another day at Keeneland, but the schedule is tight. From Lexington, it's back on I-64 west for a little over an hour to Louisville, and our first stop Louisville Downs. Louisville Downs introduced harness racing to the area in 1966. In it's day it was one of the quality harness tracks in the country. In 1981 call-a-bet was created here, long before any kind of remote wagering was available, but innovation was it's undoing. The first track to full card simulcast in Kentucky, Louisville Downs caught the attention of Churchill Downs, who were against the idea until they saw the success at the harness track. Churchill Downs now wanted their pie, the problem, only one pie, no doubt who won that one. In 1992 Churchill Downs bought out Louisville Downs, turned it into a training track and eventually an OTB parlor. Falling to disrepair the grandstand visible from I-64 for almost fifty years was torn down. Today it still remains a training facility. Now off to the owners house.
A few minutes from Louisville Downs, here it is, Churchill Downs, racing fan or not, everybody knows the first Saturday in May. Opened in 1875, the twin spires were added in 1895, fast forward one hundred and twenty years and it hard to find the original grandstand that's now surrounded by modern multi level structures. Say what you will about tradition, but introducing night racing with programs like "The Downs After Dark" combining cocktails, music and racing to attract a younger crowd, is necessary for the survival of racing. The fall meet doesn't start for a couple of weeks, but simulcasting is going on so we should be able to take a good look at this icon of racing. Next up, lets see if we can find the home of "The Junior Derby".
On the western edge of Louisville, near the banks of the Ohio River a new track opened in 1956, it was called Fairgrounds Speedway and the breed of choice were standardbreds. After two years the standardbreds were replaced by thoroughbreds and the track was renamed Miles Park. Miles Park would open after the Churchill Downs spring meet and for a gimmick featured "The Junior Derby". In 1974 the six furlong oval was sold and became Commonwealth Downs and for some reason the track that had one chute, grew three appendages and now had a chute on every turn, it looked like a Swiss Army knife. Commonwealth only lasted one season and in 1978 the grandstand was torched, effectively ending "The Junior Derby" and Miles Park. Today there's no sign it existed, but if you can find Gibson Lane heading east and stop the car a few hundred feet from the I-264 overpass and look north you would be looking straight down the original Four and a half furlong chute. That's it for today, maybe we head back to Churchill Downs for some simulcasting. Tomorrow a rare double header in Indiana.
|Day 72
Day 73 Friday, October 14
We can have a leisurely pace today, maybe even stop for breakfast, as we make the two hour ride up I-65 to Shelbyville, Indiana. We're heading for Indiana Downs or Indiana Grand as it's now called, for live racing a 1 pm. Amid opposition from Hoosier Park, Indiana Downs opened in 2002, with a glass enclosed grandstand, a one mile oval, used for both standardbreds and thoroughbreds, it also included a seven furlong turf course. In 2008 casino wagering came to Indiana Downs, elevating it's status in the racing world. In 2012 both Indiana tracks came to an agreement, each track running a single meet, Indiana Downs having a turf course got the thoroughbred meet, Hoosier Park got the standardbreds. We're heading to Hoosier Park from here, but coming back to spend the night.
From Indiana Downs we head up IN-9 for the hour ride to Anderson, home of Hoosier Park, where live racing starts at 4:45 today. The ride may seem like a scene from children of the corn, but you'll get to Hoosier Park in one piece. Opened in 1994 Hoosier Park is the senior track in Indiana, for years Hoosier ran a split thoroughbred an harness meet, but starting in 2012, Hoosier Park became a harness track. Hoosier Park also has a casino and offers year round simulcasting in it's glass enclosed facility, it features a one mile dirt oval. After the races here we'll head back to Shelbyville, for the evening, before heading to Ohio, tomorrow.
|Day 73
Day 74 Saturday, October 15
We end the week with some live Ohio Sire's Stakes action at Dayton Raceway tonight, but we have a few stops in between. We head out of Shelbyville, heading south on I-74, then we follow the I-275 Cincinnati Loop south for one quick stop in Kentucky. Right over the border we find Florence, Kentucky the home of Turfway Park our last Kentucky track. Originally named Latonia, the track opened in 1959, featuring both standardbreds and thoroughbreds on a one mile oval. In 1988 the track with the multi level glass enclosed grandstand was renamed Turfway Park, at some point standardbreds were dropped and Turfway Park is strictly a thoroughbred track. Today Turfway is the wintertime track of Kentucky running from November to April and features year round simulcasting. Next it's a short ride over the Ohio to Cincinnati.
About ten miles east of Cincinnati we come to Belterra Park, one of Ohio's new racino facility's. Better know over the years as River Downs, the track on the Banks of the Ohio started out in 1925 as Coney Island, after it was destroyed in the 1937 flood it was rebuilt and named River Downs. After the 2012 season River Downs was itself torn down and rebuilt as Belterra Park, a 24/7 casino, with simulcasting and live summertime racing on a one mile dirt track and an inner seven furlong turf course. Racing ended a week ago, but the place is always open, so take a good look before we head up the road.
From Belterra Park we're going to pick up I-275 to I-71 north to Lebanon, in Lebanon we'll be heading to the Warren County Fairgounds, which was once the home of Lebanon Raceway. Opened in 1948, as a half mile harness track, the glass enclosed grandstand which ran from October to May in the Southern Ohio harness circuit. The last races here were in 2013, before racing was moved to it's successor a few miles away. The grandstand and track are still here so hopefully we can get a good look.
From Lebanon Raceway, we take a quick ride over OH-63 to Miami Valley Gaming, one of Ohio's newly relocated casino sites. A joint venture with Delaware North and Churchill Downs featuring a 24/7 casino, year round simulcasting and live harness racing on a five eights mile oval. Residents of Lebanon got lucky as Miami Valley is the only relocated track in Ohio that stayed in the same town. No worries about getting in here, afternoon simulcasting should be in full swing. So enjoy a race or two in this new facility, before we head to another relocated venue in Dayton.
Our last stop of the day is at Dayton Raceway, one of two cookie cutter Hollywood Gaming sites in Ohio. Tonight not only do we have live racing, but also Ohio Sires Stakes action on the five eights mile oval. Dayton is the replacement track for Raceway Park, which was over two hours away in Toledo. It's curious how Ohio abandoned the Michigan border and put most of it's racino eggs in the southwest part of the state. Dayton has a 24/7 casino and year round simulcasting. For a while now Hollywood Gaming's interest in horse racing has been questioned, but when you see that the graphic for their Dayton Racing home page is of drivers and horses at Bangor Raceway in Maine, makes you wonder! Anyways we'll enjoy ending the week with live racing before heading toward Michigan.
We end up week eleven by visiting twenty two tracks, but most important we had four cards of live racing, more than we've seen for a while. Looks like we're heading into the homestretch with less than two weeks to go.

Imagine my surprise this morning when I read that someone liked my untitled post. What?! I really am losing it, or is it the lack of sleep? It happens to be the perfect segway for this next part.
The last two nights I have had some crazy dreams full of imagery. I have no idea what they mean….if anything, but they are weird, even for me. When I walked into the bathroom to take my shower this morning I heard a big swoosh of wings. I opened the blinds to see what kind of bird it was but there was nothing. It must have been a take off swoosh. It was probably a crow, I had one fly over my head at my cousins that was so low I could feel a breeze from the swoosh. It's almost always wings with me, isn't it?
Friday night's dream has faded some so it won't be lengthy in the retelling. I was in the woods or forest, I have no idea where I was. This big red tail hawk flies by. Then I am on a horse and I am riding after that same hawk who is also on the saddle of a horse. I called out "Gordy" because his name was Gordon. Did you ever hear of a hawk named Gordon? Me either. That was crazy dream number one. When I first woke up I couldn't remember if I called him Gordy or Gordo? I went with Gordy because I am pretty sure Buffy's stuffed pig was named Gordo? I have no idea why I remember that.
Last night's dream took me to somewhere flat and kind of dusty. Flat lands with sparse grass as far as I could see. I was trying to change into a pair of shorts in the back of the car while trying not to draw attention to myself. It wasn't going well, both legs kept trying to go in one leg of the shorts. There was a house or building next to the car and it had a flat roof and there was a puppy sniffing around the edge of the roof. I called to the girl "you better get your beast before she kills herself trying to jump off of that roof." The girl was nowhere to be found or she was ignoring me. I remember referring to the dog in my head as a little escape artist and she did jump off of that roof. I couldn't chase her because I was still struggling with those ridiculous shorts so I called her. She was a good pup and came right to the car where I scooped her up and passed her off to the girl who was suddenly reappeared.
In the next scene we are in a living room playing with the puppy. She had markings like a husky but I don't think that's what she was. She had a beautiful face. I called her Dakota and told the girl we would call her Kota for short. The girl said "I don't like it, it's a stupid name." I said "well too bad, that's her name." That was the end of that dream.
That doesn't sound like a name I would ever pick, we try to stick with literary names. It was pretty specific though. How is that for weird? Maybe I should rename this post "a horse with no name"? It was the only animal that remained nameless.
I am going to do my best to take it slow and to try and mosey some today. I keep adding to my list so it's going to be tough to maintain that speed …..Zia

Nevertheless, this really is an essential query in order to think about. Have you got 3 or 4 several hours every day to purchase composing as well as advertising e-books?
2: Figure out how Difficult You are Prepared to Function
This really is an additional query that could appear unusual for you, however I believe is really a legitimate 1. Particularly within gentle of all of the marketing hoopla as well as statements that many web companies could be produced as well as run through pressing the switch. This really is such as every other company effort. Effort is definitely an important a part of this, however the advantages are really worth your time and effort.

These days, We strategy as well as perform particular motion actions every day along with the objective of getting particular objectives. You will have to strategy your own online marketing strategy by doing this too.
Step four: Perform the master plan Along with Quality as well as Regularity
Once you have decided just how much period you've allocated every day to operate in your company and also have created your own online marketing strategy, it is time for you to place it in to motion. You need to look for a peaceful location along with couple of interruptions to handle your own every day duties. Realize that unpredicted points can come upward, therefore you will need to dual on your projects a few times.
You have to do your projects regularly as well as carry out this along with quality. For instance, in case your day time includes composing as well as posting 5 content articles, making 1 movie instruction as well as composing the article, carry out these types of duties towards the greatest of the capability. The caliber of your own advertising may reveal the caliber of your own e-books, particularly within the eye of the potential customers.

[SatNews] Ross Video has announced that DashBoard 6.1, a major new release of its popular, open, facility control and monitoring solution, is available for free download from http://www.rossvideo.com/.
The new release of DashBoard includes a more sophisticated version of PanelBuilder™, and provides a powerful platform upon which complex workflows that intelligently integrate multiple devices from Ross Video and a variety or other vendors can be presented as custom control panels.
Staying true to its openGear heritage, DashBoard 6.1 remains a comprehensive facilities-management tool that makes it quick and easy to view the status of a facility of any size on a single screen, and drill-down to individual device level with a minimum of mouse clicks. Consistent device editor interfaces make it simple to configure, control and update all devices, in parallel if necessary. DashBoard 6.1 also makes a TCP connection with each device. This interconnectivity, which is independent of device complexity or vendor, communicates even rapidly changing parameters, such as audio meters, in real-time and leads to a highly responsive user interface.
First introduced in DashBoard version 6.0, PanelBuilder now supports interoperation with devices that provide network accessible interfaces via UDP, TCP and HTTP protocols. This new IP connectivity significantly enhances DashBoard's library of addressable devices, which was already large and included hundreds of devices from more than 60 openGear and DashBoard Connect partners, and ensures there is virtually no limit to the devices that can be integrated into a workflow.
Plus, Ross Video has announced free software upgrades that enable Carbonite to be switched to 3G (1080P 50 or 60 (59.94)) as well as open the door to the latest production format: UHDTV (4K).
"These updates make Carbonite the perfect tool for users who want to adopt the very latest full HD progressive standard and make sure their production system investment is protected for years to come," said Nigel Spratling, Marketing Product Manager for Ross Video. "To upgrade to 3G, users simply download the free software. Once in 3G mode, Carbonite's MiniMEs can be used for UHD (4K) production by turning on MultiScreen mode. That's truly remarkable processing power—at zero cost—and yet another innovative first from Ross. No other switcher of this size and price point can offer 3G, let alone 4K at 50 and 60Hz."
No new hardware is required to switch to 3G. Current Carbonite owners simply have to download the free software. In 3G mode, the number of DVEs is reduced to four from eight, and the maximum number of MultiViewer windows is reduced to 10 from 16, for a total of 20 independent sources across two output heads. 3G signals contain twice the data of standard HD and, as a result, some resource reduction occurs. All other resources remain the same, and MiniMEs, MultiScreen and 2.5ME modes all are accessible.
Carbonite's MultiScreen mode locks all four MiniME controls together, enabling mixes, cuts and keys to be applied to UHD 3G quad link inputs. While MiniMEs have no preview output, all of the basic switching functions and keying to provide perfectly produced UHD output can be easily and quickly delivered. As many as six UHD quad link sources can be input for UHD program output and, if the quad link format is pixel/line interleave, sources can easily be monitored via standard 1080 displays and Carbonite's MultiViewers. This quad link format also enables simultaneous UHD and 1080P outputs.
The Ross Video Carbonite infopage is located at http://www.rossvideo.com/production-switchers/carbonite/options.html
Additionally, Ross Mobile Productions (RMP) will introduce the OT1 compact production vehicle at this year's NAB tradeshow.
Designed around a tightly integrated Carbonite Production Switcher and XPression Graphics core, the RMP vehicles will deliver fiber and Triax camera capabilities, an advanced communication system and a dual-user eight-channel replay system. This incredible production power enables these Mercedes Sprinter-size vehicles to deliver network-quality production and meet consumer demand for coverage of more sporting and other live events. As well as providing crew and equipment, RMP also undertakes the responsibilities of the producer and provides a full-service solution known as "packaging." RMP's services also include customizing, and creating score bugs and graphics packages.
RMP will fund freelance training initiatives to enable this next-generation of Ross Video's workflow tools to become widely and easily accessible. In keeping with its stated spirit of friendly competition, Ross Video will make many of the integrated solutions it refines for RMP available to other mobile operators and packagers at special package pricing and with support arrangements.
