Cucurbit Genetics Cooperative Report 6:82-83 (article 41) 1983
Progress and Procedures in Breeding CMV Resistant C. pepo L.
Henry M. Munger and Richard L. Washek
Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853
After many years of attempting to use cucumber mosaic resistance derived from PI 176959, a C. pepo from Turkey, recent efforts have concentrated on C. martinezii which is proving a far better source of resistance. Nevertheless, 3 lines derived from crosses with PI 176959 have been extremely useful in two ways: 1. As parents in complex crosses which also involve C. martinezii and 2., as checks for evaluating levels of resistance. The latter use may be the more important. Many levels of reaction to CMV exist in C. pepo and these unfortunately are expressed as drastic differences from one test to another rather than as gradations in symptom expression in a given test. We have come to use six varieties and breeding lines as checks in most CMV-inoculated plantings to evaluate the level of resistance in newer lines. They are ranked from most susceptible to most resistant in the following list:
- 'Early Prolific Straightneck' (EPS). Uniformly susceptible in all tests. Highly stunted or killed when inoculated at any age. Usually severely affected from natural infection in field at Ithaca, NY.
- 'Zucchini' and 'Caserta'. Usually as badly stunted as EPS when inoculated at cotyledon stage, especially in the greenhouse from fall to early spring. Hard to infect as plants become older. When grown in the field without artificial inoculation, they are sometimes severely stunted and mottled but in other seasons are essentially unaffected by CMV while EPS nearby is stunted or killed. They sometimes look healthy through most of the season but die suddenly toward the end after producing several fruits. Caserta sometimes survives when Zucchini does not, but the average difference is not great.
- 78-274 and 78-276. F5 progenies from [(PI176959 x Yankee Hybrid) F5 x EPS x EPS]. Plant and fruit type similar to EPS. Variable reaction to CMV much as described for Zucchini and Caserta but usually less affected than those varieties. When grown in the field at Ithaca without artificial inoculation, they usually produce a crop while EPS fails. However, in a late-planted farm test near Albany, NY, these lines looked no more resistant than EPS. While infection with a different virus is not entirely ruled out as an explanation, we conclude that their resistance to cucumber mosaic is too risky for New York conditions and try to eliminate progenies of this level. They are useful as parents to improve EPS type without going back to the completely susceptible EPS; all our present lines of EPS type have one of these in their parentage.
- 73-604. F8 progeny from PI 176959 x Yankee Hybrid (3) used as parent in 1966 to start the backcross progenies just described. A viney plant with short cylindrical tan fruit. Almost never shows symptoms from natural infection in the field and after young seedlings are inoculated for field plantings, most plants show only slight symptoms. Some runners may show severe symptoms when fruit is maturing. Some plants may show strong symptoms in early inoculated greenhouse tests but these show marked recovery and many show only slight or no symptoms. This has been our most resistant check line; its level of resistance seems fully adequate for any situations we have encountered in growing summer squash.
- Two families designated as 469 and W225 are of more recent origin, include in their parentage both C. martinezii and 78-276 (listed under 3 above) and constitute our most advanced material with a uniformly high level of CMV resistance. Numerous F4 lines of both families were grown in 1982 and some seem to be true-breeding for even higher CMV resistance than 73-604 (number 4 in list above).
Both are recognizably of summer straightneck fruit type but vary in shape and wartiness. Both have plants that are slightly less compact than summer squash and W235 has distinctive mottled leaves. The 469 family is susceptible to powdery mildew while the W225 has some highly PMR plants.
We encourage anyone interested in CMV resistance in C. pepo to obtain seed of the above lines to compare with the resistance of their own material, to evaluate the severity of natural infection, or to use as parents.
The parentage of the 469 and W225 families is given below. In this diagram a series of 2 numbers designates a row while 3 numbers designates a single plant. 75-591-1 was a plant selected for powdery mildew resistance by Contin (1, 2) from the complex hybrid he made, using as female parent the interspecific backcross population developed by Wall & York (4) and maintained at Cornell by periodic isolated increase.

Thin film has 'astonishing' ability to rotate light
Apr 4, 2011 5 comments
Physicists in Austria and Germany have taken the Faraday effect to a new extreme by rotating the polarization of light by 45° by passing it through an extremely thin film. This "giant Faraday effect" could someday be used to create optical transistors that switch light or to improve terahertz imaging systems.
Discovered in 1845 by Michael Faraday, the Faraday effect describes how a magnetic field shifts the polarization of light as the light passes through a medium. A material's ability to rotate light is defined by its Verdet constant – the amount of rotation given per tesla of magnetic field strength and per metre of material. The previous record for the strongest Faraday effect was the semiconductor indium-antimony, which has a Verdet constant of about 104 radians per tesla per metre.
Now Andrei Pimenov and colleagues at the Vienna Institute of Technology in Austria and the University of Würzburg have shown that mercury-telluride has a Verdet constant of 106 radians per tesla per metre – which Pimenov described as "astonishing".
A layered approach
To investigate mercury-telluride's optical properties, the team layers the material over a thin piece of cadmium-telluride, which does not contribute to the Faraday rotation. Then linearly polarized light – with its electric-field electric component oscillating along a certain direction – is sent into the sample.
The oscillating electric field causes conduction electrons in the material to drift to and fro. When a magnetic field is applied to the material, the electrons assume circular orbits. These orbits affect the speed at which right and left circularly polarized light travels through the material. This has the effect of rotating the direction of polarization.
The researchers measured the effect by passing the emerging light through a polarizing filter – either aligned with the initial polarization or perpendicular to it. In the absence of the magnetic field, the aligned polarizer lets all the light through, while the perpendicular filter blocks it entirely. However, as the magnetic field is increased, less light comes through the aligned filter and more through the perpendicular filter. The proportion of transmitted light for each alignment told the researchers the degree to which the beam had turned.
For the film with a thickness of just 70 nm, the rotation reached a maximum of about 15° with a magnetic field of 1 tesla. However, a layer of mercury telluride 1 µm thick could rotate the light a little more than 45°. Sébastien Francoeur of École Polytechnique in Montreal called the semiconductor an "intriguing material" because electrons can travel relatively long distances without scattering and the electrons low effective mass – they behave as if they have just a 30th of their actual masses. Francoeur said these properties are "the special ingredients resulting in this giant magneto-optical effect".
The effective mass of the electrons and the strength of the magnetic field help define the cyclotron frequency of the circular orbits. When the rotation of the light is greatest, the cyclotron frequency matches that of the light, suggesting that this resonance contributes to the giant Faraday effect.
To put the effect to use, the researchers suggest a transistor design for optical computing. "Using an external magnetic field, you can either switch on or switch off the transmission of the light," says Pimenov. While an electronic transistor decides whether to let a current pass depending on the voltage applied to it, a mercury-telluride layer between two aligned linear polarizers would let light through when the magnetic field was off but not when it was on.
In order to make this device, the team would need to twist the light by 90° rather than just 45°. Pimenov says that multiple layers of mercury-telluride, separated by cadmium-telluride, should be able to rotate light by 360° or more.
With exactly 45° of rotation, the effect can also make for optical one-way valves. The light would pass through a linear polarizer and then be rotated by 45° on its way forward. If reflected, it would turn another 45° on its way back through the mercury-telluride. Now aligned perpendicular to the polarizer, it couldn't pass.
The effect could also be used to perform terahertz imaging and spectroscopy in molecular biology, medicine, and security. According to Francoeur, terahertz light is "notoriously difficult to guide and it is challenging to manipulate its polarization state". The giant Faraday effect in mercury-telluride makes a welcome addition to the toolbox.
The research is reported in Phys. Rev. Lett. 106 107404.

Introduction to Unity Scripting – Part 1
Scripting is an essential part of making even the simplest of games. These small collections of code work together to do all sorts of things.

Scripting is an essential part of making even the simplest of games. These small collections of code work together to do all sorts of things: From moving a character around the screen to keeping track of your inventory. Game developers write scripts in Unity in C#, a powerful object-oriented programming language developed by Microsoft around the year 2000. It has since grown to be one of the most popular programming languages out there. The Unity team chose C# as Unity's main programming language because it's well documented, easy to learn and flexible.
Unity has a well-documented API at its core that scripts can communicate with. In this tutorial, you'll be creating a simple game — starting with a few models, while learning how to use the most important parts of the Unity API. You'll learn how to create C# scripts that:
 - Create variables that can be changed in the editor.
 - Detect player input and react to it.
 - Use physics to create interactions.
 - Change values over time in several different ways.
Before starting off, make sure you meet the following requirements:
With that out the way, you're ready to discover the Unity API by making a simple game!
Getting Started
Download the materials for the project using the Download Materials button at the top or bottom of this tutorial, unzip it somewhere and open the starter project inside Unity.
To start off, direct your attention to the Project window and unfold the RW folder. This project comes with a bunch of pre-made assets that you'll be using to blow life into the game with scripting:
To focus on the scripting, here's the included asset folders and their content:
 - Materials: A single material that's shared between all models for optimal performance.
 - Models: Some models that range from a small smoke puff to the big ground model.
 - Music: The background music for the game. The song is Flying Kerfuffle by Kevin MacLeod.
 - Prefabs: A bunch of pre-made prefabs to make it easier to make changes to GameObjects already present in the scenes.
 - Scenes: A Game and a Title scene.
 - Scripts: Empty! Here's where you'll place the scripts you'll be creating.
 - Sounds: A few 8-bit sound effects created using bfxr.
 - Sprites: There's a single sprite sheet in here for some small UI elements.
 - Textures: A single texture that's used by the shared material.
Now, open up the Game scene under RW/Scenes if it isn't opened yet and take a look around in the Scene view.
There are some floating islands with windmills, bridges and a small rail line with a blue hay machine sitting on top. Now, take a glance at the Hierarchy:
Here's a quick overview of the GameObjects:
 - Music: An audio source playing a happy tune on loop.
 - Main Camera: The camera that points down at the scene to give a good overview.
 - Directional Light: A single light source that emulates a sun.
 - Scenery: This GameObjects hold the ground and the windmills.
 - Hay Machine: This is the blue machine sitting on the rails. It's made out of a few GameObjects to make it easy to customize later on.
Next, click the play button at the top of the editor and take a look at the Game view to see what happens.
The only signs of life at the moment are the smoke particles flying up from the hay machine. It won't win any game of the year awards any time soon, but it's a good foundation to build on. :]
Click the play button again to stop testing the "game".
Now that you're familiar with the project, it's time to get scripting!
Your First Script
Creating new scripts in Unity is quite easy. Right-click the RW/Scripts folder, select Create ► C# Script and name the script Rotate.
Unity now creates and immediately compiles a bare bones MonoBehaviour script.
While the script won't do anything yet, you can already use it as a component by attaching it to a GameObject. In this case, the Rotate script will turn the wheels of all windmills around.
Components are instances of scripts, meaning that you can add as many of the same component to any GameObject as you like. Any changes made to the script will reflect in all its components.
Unfold Scenery in the Hierarchy to reveal its children. Open Windmill in the prefab editor by clicking the arrow next to its name.
Note: Unity recently updated their prefab system. For an in-depth look at the new system, check out this great tutorial!
Select Wheel, it's the grandchild of Windmill. Now, click the Add Component button at the bottom of the Inspector, start typing "rotate" until the Rotate component appears in the list and select it.
This will add the Rotate component to the wheels of all windmills.
To edit the script, you'll need to open it in a code editor like Visual Studio. There are a few ways of opening a script, but the easiest ways are by either finding the source file in the Project window and double-clicking it. Double-clicking the Script field of any component also works:
Use any of the methods above to open the Rotate script in your default code editor. Here's what that looks like in Visual Studio:
The script itself is a single class that derives from MonoBehaviour, Unity's base class that all scripts should derive from if they need to be used as components.
MonoBehaviour is part of the UnityEngine namespace and implements a few public methods but — more importantly — a huge list of event functions.
Note: Functions are another name for methods, all of these are subroutines. In OOP languages such as C# you should use the term method, but Unity has chosen to go with function instead when describing most of its built-in methods.
Unity adds the Start and Update methods by default to all new scripts. These are actually event functions, they get called when a specific action triggers them. Here's a handful of the most common event functions and when they get called:
 - Start: First time the component is initialized.
 - Update: Every frame.
 - OnEnable: When the component is (re)enabled.
 - OnDestroy: When the component is destroyed.
You'll be using a lot more of them over the course of this tutorial as they're an essential part of scripting. You can check out the full list of event functions in Unity's documentation.
Add the following line inside of Update:
transform.Rotate(0, 50 * Time.deltaTime, 0);
This single line that does a constant rotation on the Y-axis over time already shows some of the abilities of the Unity API:
 - transform is an inherited property of MonoBehaviour. It returns the Transform of the GameObject the component gets attached to. The Transform class allows you to read and change a GameObject's position, rotation and scale.
 - Rotate is one of the public methods of the Transform class, one of its signatures is used here to pass on a rotation in degrees to the X, Y and Z axes respectively.
 - The value passed for the Y-axis is 50 * Time.deltaTime. Time.deltaTime is part of the UnityEngine namespace and returns the time in seconds between the last and the current frame. This value can change values over time independent of framerate. In essence, this prevents stuff from going slow motion on slow machines and into hyper mode on faster ones. Multiplying the value from Time.deltaTime with 50 means that you want the value to increase by 50 per second. In this case that's a rotation of 50 degrees on the Y-axis over the time span of a second.
As this line has been added to Update, it gets executed every frame while the component is enabled. This results in a smooth, constant rotation.
Note: The Unity editor uses Euler angles to modify the rotation of GameObjects — these are the familiar X, Y and Z axes. The Unity engine actually uses Quaternions internally that consist of X, Y, Z and W values. These values are very hard to interpret and aren't meant to be used directly. To read more about the difference, take a look at Unity's documentation on the subject.
Save this script and return to the editor.
You'll the notice the editor will be unresponsive for a very short time while it's compiling. You can check when this compilation is happening by looking at the bottom right corner of the editor, there will be a small animated icon:
If you haven't exited the Prefab editing mode, do so now by clicking the left pointing arrow next to the Windmill prefab in the Hierarchy. You'll be prompted to Save or Discard your changes. Click Save.
Now, play the scene. You'll notice the windmill wheels are now slowly turning around, so relaxing.
Now, let's say you want to tweak how fast the wheels are turning, or you want to add the Rotate component to another GameObject that needs to turn on a different axis. Wouldn't it be nice if you could change those values in the editor?
That's where variables come in!
Variables are containers of data that store information. These can range from the player's lives and money to a reference to a prefab to spawn into the scene. Once you add these to a script, you can edit their values in the editor.
Open the Rotate script in your favorite code editor and add the following line right above the

Are fish and other marine creatures attracted to Biorock reefs?
Mon, 03/26/2012 - 03:41 -- admintps
Like an oasis in the desert, all forms of coral life are quickly attracted to Biorock reefs. Many forms of reef life have been observed to be attracted to the structures, and none repelled.
However it is the organisms with limestone skeletons, such as corals, clams, oysters, barnacles, tube worms and sand-producing algae that are especially benefited, allowing them to outgrow weedy algae that often smothers and kills corals in polluted waters.
The result is that mineral accretion structures quickly become real coral reefs dominated by corals with a wide variety of normal reef creatures.

Whitefish set netters spot Bigfoot
Two Bethel men checking on their whitefish set net sighted a Bigfoot-like creature walking through the willows on Taperrnaq Slough. Illustration by AI
by K.J. Lincoln
Two fishermen from Bethel saw a creature too tall to be a human walking upright while checking their whitefish net at the upper mouth of Tarperrnaq River.
Dana Kopanuk, was one of the fishermen who saw the Bigfoot-like being. He was with his nephew Paul Fisher when the sighting occurred.
It was the month of August in 2011. They went upriver from Bethel by way of the Kuskokwim and Church Slough seeking whitefish. They reached the upper end of Napaskiak Slough (also known as Tarpernaq Slough) where they decided to set a whitefish net at the mouth in a small eddy – a qamaneq.
After setting the net, the fishermen went on upriver to visit Kopanuk's sister who lives in Kwethluk. Three hours of visiting later, the two decided to go check the net and head back home to Bethel after that.
As they were approaching the area where the net was set, they saw someone walking through the willows along the bank. Nearby there was a fishcamp so at first they thought it was a person and they were not in any way alarmed, surprised, or even excited.
But the "person" was grayish in color and walked slowly. Its head was taller than the surrounding willows that grew thickly. It looked like it had not much of a neck, said Kopanuk.
"It looked like a huge person," he said. "The willows were tall but it was taller."
If it were a person, he would have waited for us, said Kopanuk. But it didn't, it just kept walking away, kelutmun (away from the bank). Kopanuk and Fisher watched the creature for approximately five minutes as it disappeared into the wooded terrain.
Kopanuk thought it would come back, as a person would, but it didn't. So after pulling in the net and their catch, they drove back to Bethel.
Later, the two talked about what they had seen. They agreed it wasn't a human because a person, especially in this isolated part of the river, would have said a friendly hello or waved. People also wear distinctive clothing – the creature they saw was all gray. It was also walking away from them, which was unusual.
Kopanuk also said that after seeing the Bigfoot and Hairy Man reports and illustrations in the Delta Discovery, he is now sure it was not a person.

Complete Guide to 1×2 Betting
1X2 Betting — Complete Guide on How to Easily Bet on Football and Other Sports
Placing a wager on a sporting event can take many forms. These days, sportsbooks offer all sorts of betting markets, from simple straight bets to multiples that can involve props and player bets.
Nevertheless, 1X2 betting remains the most popular sports betting market among punters. This is also the simplest type of bet, as it involves betting on one of the three possible outcomes, which is why it's sometimes called a three-way moneyline bet.
In this article, we will explain how 1X2 betting works, which sports you can place it on, and what some of its most popular variations are. Read on!
What Is 1X2 Betting?
If you're a beginner punter and don't know how sports betting works, learning to place 1X2 bets is the best way to start. This sort of bet is usually taken on football matches, but it can work for some other sports as well.
In 1X2 betting, the goal is to predict the outcome of the match, with 1 being the home team's victory, 2 being the away team's victory, and X representing a draw. It's as simple as that. 1X2 can be placed as a single bet, or it can be combined with more 1X2s or other bets.
To explain this further, let's use an example:
Liverpool is playing with Leicester at Anfield. The odds for Liverpool to win (1, since they are the home team) are 1.50. The odds for the draw (X) are 4.00, while the odds for Leicester to win (2) are 6.00. The odds are multiplied by your stake to calculate your total win. If you bet £10 on Liverpool and it wins the game, you will be paid a total of £15 (£10 x 1.50), meaning that your profit from that bet is £5. If Leicester wins or the match ends in a draw, you lose the bet.
As mentioned, 1X2 bets can be combined with other bets. In that scenario, all odds are multiplied with your stake to calculate your win. You need to guess all the outcomes correctly to win, with the exception of the system bets, but that's a topic left for another time.
You don't necessarily need to combine 1X2 bets with other 1X2 bets. For example, you can place a 1X2 bet and an over/under bet on the same bet slip. 1X2 betting is available for any sporting event where there is a possibility for a draw, like in handball or ice hockey.
Why Is 1X2 Betting so Popular?
1X2 has been around for almost as long as organised sports betting itself. While many new types of bets were invented in the meantime, 1X2 still remains one of the most popular ones.
1X2 betting is the most attractive betting market for beginners due to its simplicity, but even more, experienced punters place 1X2 bets all the time. This betting market can be very lucrative, as there are three possible outcomes, so the odds tend to be higher than for two-way bets, especially if the outcome is not easily predictable.
Despite being straightforward, 1X2 betting is incredibly exciting. Anything can happen in a 90-minute match, and things can easily turn the other way around. That's why a lot of punters also choose to wager on 1X2 in the form of live betting, where the odds change as time goes by.
1X2 Betting Strategy
While it is simple to make a 1X2 bet, getting it right is not. Of course, backing up a clear favourite will go your way most of the time, but you won't make a lot of profit as the odds will be rather small. The trick is to find big odds that are given to outcomes that have a real chance of happening.
The most efficient strategy for exploring this sports betting market is to know the teams that are playing. By following up on their squads, current form, injury reports, and team news, you will be able to make a knowledgeable wager.
It's best to take some bets after the match has kicked off, as that's when you can take advantage of in-play betting. By seeing how the match is developing, checking up on the current stats, and looking at how the odds change, you can sometimes make a more valuable bet than before kick-off.
While constructing a bet slip with multiple 1X2 bets, it's important not to pick too many teams, regardless of how irresistible the final winning total is. The best way to approach multiples is to pick three or four matches with reasonable odds. If you plan on betting on multiples often, you should look into the fact that some bookies offer early cashout, which is a possibility to cash out your bet slip without waiting for all matches to finish.
Also, many experienced punters stay away from betting on a team that they cheer for, as they can't always be objective.

Call for Papers for SSEPC Monograph
Theme: Preparing Preservice Teachers for Inclusive Practice
Small Special Education Programs Caucus
Teacher Education Division, Council for Exceptional Children
The Small Special Education Programs Caucus (SSEPC) is seeking papers for its new monograph related to inquiry and practice of the preparation of preservice teachers for inclusive practice.
The increase in inclusive practice and changing service delivery models has had an impact on practice in special education. In response to this changing landscape, teacher educators have had to revise and restructure their programs to prepare undergraduate and graduate students to teach in a variety of classroom structures. This monograph will be a collection of current research related to preparing teachers for these structures, with a particular emphasis on teacher preparation in small college and university programs. All members of the Teacher Education Division are encouraged to contribute papers.
All papers must be submitted electronically in Microsoft Word to Dr. Michele Kamens at _EMAIL_ by the deadline date of August 1, 2010. Early submissions are encouraged. All submissions are subject to blind review, and must adhere to the following guidelines in order to be considered:

Diagonalization matrix and its application in distribution theory
MetadataShow full item record
Some matrix representations of diverse diagonal arrays are studied in this work; the results allow new definitions of classes of elliptical distributions indexed by kernels mixing Hadamard and usual products. A number of applications are derived in the setting of prior densities from the Bayesian multivariate regression model and families of non-elliptical distributions, such as the matrix multivariate generalized Birnbaum–Saunders density. The philosophy of the research about matrix representations of quadratic and inverse quadratic forms can be extended as a methodology for exploring possible new applications in non-standard distributions, matrix transformations and inference.

Biomass estimation in mangrove forests: a comparison of allometric models incorporating species and structural information.
Category:- Journal; Year:- 2021
Discipline:- Forestry & Wood Technology Discipline
School:- Life Science School
Improved estimates of aboveground biomass (AGB) are required to improve our understanding of the productivity of mangrove forests to support the long-term conservation of these fragile ecosystems which are under threat from many natural and anthropogenic pressures. To understand how individual species affects biomass estimates in mangrove forests, five species-specific and four genus-specific allometric models were developed. Independent tree inventory data were collected from 140 sample plots to compare the AGB among the species-specific models and seven frequently used pan-tropical and Sundarbans-specific generic models. The effect of individual tree species was also evaluated using model parameters for wood densities (from individual trees to the whole Sundarbans) and tree heights (individual, plot average and plot top height). All nine developed models explained a high percentage of the variance in tree AGB (R2 = 0.97–0.99) with the diameter at breast height and total height (H). At the individual tree level, the generic allometric models overestimated AGB from 22% to 167% compared to the species-specific models. At the plot level, mean AGB varied from 111.36 Mg ha−1 to 299.48 Mg ha−1, where AGB significantly differed in all generic models compared to the species-specific models (p < 0.05). Using measured species wood density (WD) in the allometric model showed 4.5%–9.7% less biomass than WD from published databases and other sources. When using plot top height and plot average height rather than measured individual tree height, the AGB was overestimated by 19.5% and underestimated by 8.3% (p < 0.05). The study demonstrates that species-specific allometric models and individual tree measurements benefit biomass estimation in mangrove forests. Tree level measurement from the inventory plots, if available, should be included in allometric models to improve the accuracy of forest biomass estimates, particularly when upscaling individual trees up to the ecosystem level.Read More


Talk to MDMD in London 13th October 2018
Choosing to have the life and its end that belongs to you
Prof A C Grayling, Master of the New College of the Humanities; Vice President of Humanists UK; MDMD Patron
Q&A start at 33mins
Following a warm introduction by MDMD Coordinator Phil Cheatle, Professor Grayling addressed the audience by asking them to consider a simple question: "What is the meaning of life?".
In seeking to answer that question, Professor Grayling suggested the audience should turn to the great secrets of philosophy, because at its core philosophy is an adventure of rational thought, which aims to dig down at the common assumptions we all make. However, Professor Grayling cautioned the audience that in seeking to find such answers, they may have to confront some great paradoxes.
One example Professor Grayling gave, to highlight this point, was the story of two old ladies on a bus:
"One day two old ladies were on a bus and one complained to the other about a problem which had been nagging on their mind. At first the other old lady said nothing. However, after a short while the old lady smiled and leaned close to her friend. 'You must be philosophical about your problem' she counselled … 'you mustn't give it another thought'".
Professor Grayling explained that whilst initially this advice may seem the opposite of a philosophical view, in essence it captures one of the great insights known to the Stoic philosophers. This being that, when we are faced with problems we cannot change, such as ageing or mass disease, we must not fear them, but instead face them with a sense of courage and fortitude. In contrast, when we are faced with problems which can be changed, such as our fears or appetite, we must not avoid or try to hide from them, but instead command and control our own destinies. This, said Professor Grayling, was the great secret of the Stoics towards achieving a meaningful life.
Moving onto another great secret from philosophy, Professor Grayling considered the paradox of Assisted Dying: namely that facing death throughout our lives, is very often the reason our lives are better. Again, Professor Grayling pointed out, that whilst at first dying may seem the antithesis of a happy and meaningful life, this is only because dying is a concept we are non stoic about.
Death he argued, was something society viewed with great anxiety and fear. Death, was something everyone hoped to postpone or ignore. Yet, Professor Grayling asked the audience to consider why we are scared of death.
"I'll admit when I was a young man, I used to be a bit of a hypochondriac. You know the sort, I'd check my pulse when I thought no-one was looking and when my heart occasionally skipped a beat, I'd think oh God I'm going to die. Yet, I realised as time went on the reason I wanted to cling onto life, other than my natural desire to stay alive, wasn't death itself; dying might be unpleasant but death itself is no different from being unborn. I wanted to stay alive, because I was scared of not being able to do all the things I'd wanted to do."
Professor Grayling told the room that death itself, wasn't the reason society fears dying, it is the sense of not having completed everything one wishes which scares us. However, Professor Grayling suggested this doesn't mean society should simply try to keep people alive for the maximum amount of time possible, since time isn't the key to a meaningful life; experience is.
"Suppose you go to Paris for the weekend with someone you really like and whilst you're there, it seems as though you're there forever. Yet, when you're home again *snaps fingers* its gone like a flash. Or imagine, a person who does exactly the same thing, at exactly the same time, every single day of his life. How many days has that person lived? One! Time isn't really what matters and gives our lives meaning, but experience".
Reflecting on secrets which can be learnt from philosophy, Professor Grayling argued one of the great lessons we must all learn is that a healthy attitude to death can be liberating. He explained that if someone is not afraid to die, if they do not dedicate the time and anxieties necessary to avoid it, if they face death with a sense of fortitude and courage, then death can be a form of freedom. Once someone stops fearing death, they are capable of living a life with the fullness of experience every life deserves, because they know it is an inevitablity and they cannot change it.
Professor Grayling also explained another secret from philosophy, often unconsidered. Rather than an enemy to be feared, death can be the "last, greatest, securest and friendliest" act of freedom. Indeed, for someone who lives with extreme pain, suffering or intolerable existence, choosing to die might be a final act of autonomous expression. Thus, to a great extent death can be liberating, since it means if someone's quality of existence were ever to become utterly intolerable anyone can autonomously choose to escape it.
Following this, Professor Grayling moved onto the other theme of his talk. The concept of autonomy. Professor Grayling explained that the notion of autonomy is the idea of having ultimate ownership over your own life. It is the notion that it is the person who is living a life who can best understand and make choices for it, because no-one else is capable of understanding what it means to be that person.
Professor Grayling further explained that the notion of autonomy is central to what it means to be a person. He explained, that it is from our rights to autonomy that our responsibilities to others stem. For example, because each person is free to act as they wish within society, autonomy justifies the imposition of responsibilities upon a person for their actions. For example, whilst we are free to love and cherish the friends we wish, we also correspondingly owe obligations to those people, such as an obligation to offer help to friends in need. Likewise, if autonomy is the reason we can have responsibilities, it must also mean each person is the final arbitrator on when, how and for how long they live their life.
Accordingly, Professor Grayling argued that when we talk about a right to life, we are not merely talking about our right to near existence but a right to autonomy.
"Suppose you were to live under a law which meant you could not escape your suffering. Suppose there was a law which said no matter what your state of health or the extent to which some devastating illness reached, you're not allowed to die. Every effort must be made to keep you alive, no matter how much you're suffering. That would be a terrifying prospect. You'd be a prisoner of life even in its worse dimension. Or consider if I locked you in a tiny cage and fed you bread and water in the dark. You'd be alive. But I couldn't claim that I was respecting your right to life."
Professor Grayling closed his talk by reflecting on the notion of autonomy and its importance to the right to die. He pointed out that for years anyone who wished to die has been dismissed as mad or suffering from a passing phase. He pointed out, that those who ask for death are commonly thought of as only needed to get through a short phase before being "fine" once again. Yet, Professor Grayling reflected that whilst in some cases this might be true, it doesn't seem right when we don't know what each moment of existence means for a person, to make such a choice about continued existence for them. Afterall, "a right to life, would seem to be a right to a certain minimum quality of life. Once that minimum quality is gone, it would seem to be that it must trigger whatever someone has left. A right to die."
Questions and Discussion:
Q: How can we convince those who disagree with our point of view on Assisted Dying to change their minds?
A: "That really is a great question and partly why I am deeply honoured to be a patron of My Death, My Decision. I think this organisation has a real opportunity to start afresh with our thinking and arguments about Assisted Dying. I've been a patron of Dignity in Dying, (what was the Voluntary Euthanasia Society), for over 20 years and in that time, they've tried again and again to pass a bill through parliament for physician assisted suicide for the terminally ill. Although early on it wasn't just for the terminally ill but also for those in intolerable states. And they have temporised and weakened their position, changed their ask and eventually got down to only saying in the last 6 months of someone's life, if someone is irrevocably ill, could we let a doctor help that person? … But they've been pushed back again and again.
It is always a mistake to aim for 50, hoping that you're going to get 25 and ending up with 0. Instead you should aim for 100 and make your argument as robustly as you can.
There comes a point in any great conversation society has with itself when a tipping point is reached. We know that we have a majority of people on our side. But we must keep making the argument because suddenly there will be a glimmer of light and then there will be a cascade of action. Once you fight for the big issues and keep on fighting, with courage and persistence, it will come."
Q: It isn't all rational – people are influenced by unconscious attitudes, behaviours, emotions. How can we take more account of that?
A: Bringing up children is about

The American Institute of Biological Sciences (AIBS) is a Partner Organization in the National Science Foundation (NSF) funded Research Coordination Network (RCN) grant "Building a Community of Natural History Collections." This initiative (please see _URL_ for more information) is working to gather valuable data about natural history collections. To this end, an important survey has been developed to gather data about natural history collections that was not captured by recent federal surveys.
Collections curators are encouraged to complete this important survey at _URL_
A more thorough explanation of this effort is provided below by Dr. Hank Bart, a Co-PI on the NSF grant.
At long last, the CollectionsWeb Survey of U.S. Natural History Collections is ready for its official launch (see the survey links farther down in this message).
The survey is an activity of the Community Building in U.S. Natural History Collections Research Coordination Network (_URL_ The project was funded by the National Science Foundation in 2006 to address challenges and explore opportunities in U.S. Natural History Collections (NHC). One of the first steps in any community building process is identifying who your community is. When we first proposed this project, we realized that there was no single inventory of U.S. NHC, and that a comprehensive survey of U.S. NHC had not been undertaken for several years.
Within the past two years, surveys of 291 Federal Scientific Collections (_URL_ and 611 Federally Funded Scientific Collections (_URL_ have been conducted (respectively) by the Interagency Working Group on Scientific Collections and the National Science Foundation. However, by our estimates, these surveys reached less than half of U.S. NHC. Moreover, although the results of these surveys give us valuable insight into challenges currently facing U.S. NHC, they provide only a limited basis for assessing long term trends. This is your opportunity to be counted!
Our goal in building this site is to inventory all U.S. NHC, produce a comprehensive database of U.S. NHC information, and establish a baseline for periodically assessing status and trends. The survey is based on a survey instrument produced by the Association of Systematics Collections (ASC, now the Natural Science Collections Alliance), first conducted in 1988 (baseline data). Our questions and background information are based on the 1995 report of the 1993 ASC survey, entitled Status, Resources and Needs of Systematics Collections by Diane Zorich and K. Elaine Hoagland.
We plan to make all of the data collected at this site a permanent resource for the NHC community by posting the content on the web site of Natural Science Collections Alliance or the Society for the Preservation of Natural History Collections. As a member of the community, you will have access to the data (minus sensitive institutional data), and summaries of the survey results, for use in reports and grant proposals.
We are partnering with the Biodiversity Collections Index (BCI, _URL_ to produce an index of U.S. NHC. BCI is a community-driven, open-access project initiated by the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF), Biodiversity Information Standards (TDWG) and Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (RBGE). It is a global registry of Biodiversity Collections, which aims to provide Globally Unique Identifiers (GUIDs) to every natural history collection on earth. We are also using the data to make a digital map showing the locations of all U.S. NHC.
Here is the link to the survey: _URL_
Please bookmark this site so that you can find it later, and add it to the list of trusted sites in your web browser so none of the scripts are blocked (more below).
The survey is directed at collection curators, but some of the questions request financial data that may require administrative input. Thus, we suggest that takers download and print a hardcopy of the survey using the link on the opening page, compile all of the financial data, then return to the website to enter your information online. This can also serve as your hardcopy of the survey.
Prior to taking the survey, you will need to identify yourself and select your collection from the list that appears after choosing the state it resides within. Then, click the text that reads "Start New Survey". If your collection's name does not appear in the list, you will be instructed to click a link that will send you to the Biodiversity Collections Index's (BCI) website, so you can register it. Please register your collection even if it resides within a larger museum or institution that is already registered in BCI. Once you have registered in BCI, return to the survey and choose your newly registered collection from the dropdown list.
We have programmed features that allow you to pause the survey without completing it, skip questions, return to previous questions, change your answers, or navigate among question in the survey. In the event that you pause the survey, you will be assigned a number that you will need to rejoin the survey later (your partially completed survey data will be saved under this number). Write this number down. When you are ready to rejoin the survey, click on the text that reads "click here to resume an existing survey". This will launch a Java script that may be blocked by your web browser. If this happens, click on the information bar at the top of the page and select "Temporarily Allow Scripted Windows" or add the survey site to your trusted sites list in your web browser. Then click again on the text "click here to resume an existing survey" and enter the number to rejoin the survey.
We have tried to anticipate everything that can go wrong when taking the survey, but I'm sure other problems will be detected. So, if you have a problem, please contact Hank Bart (). Please type "CollectionsWeb Survey" in the subject line of your message.
Here is the link again: _URL_
This is an extremely important survey and it is extremely important that all U.S. NHC participate. Thus, we will leave the survey up at least until the end of this year. We will be monitoring input and sending out periodic reminders. But please complete your survey right away.
Many thanks in advance for participating.

The formation of Antarctic Bottom Water—the cold, dense water that occupies the abyssal layer of the global ocean—is a key process in global ocean circulation. This water mass is formed as dense shelf water sinks to depth. Three regions around Antarctica where this process takes place have been previously documented. The presence of another source has been identified in hydrographic and tracer data, although the site of formation is not well constrained. Here we document the formation of dense shelf water in the Cape Darnley polynya (65°–69° E) and its subsequent transformation into bottom water using data from moorings and instrumented elephant seals (Mirounga leonina). Unlike the previously identified sources of Antarctic Bottom Water, which require the presence of an ice shelf or a large storage volume, bottom water production at the Cape Darnley polynya is driven primarily by the flux of salt released by sea-ice formation. We estimate that about 0.3–0.7×106 m3 s−1 of dense shelf water produced by the Cape Darnley polynya is transformed into Antarctic Bottom Water. The transformation of this water mass, which we term Cape Darnley Bottom Water, accounts for 6–13% of the circumpolar total.

OECD Home › Green growth and sustainable development › By Date
Investment strategies almost never consider external costs to the environment when calculating potential returns. But incorporating environmental risk and sustainability into investor mindsets is possible– and urgent.
Cities can generate growth and jobs while becoming greener – this is the message of the OECD's new Green Growth in Cities report. Drawing on case studies of Paris, Chicago, Kitakyushu and Stockholm, the report identifies green policies that can respond to urban growth priorities and suggests how to implement and finance them.
As stretched public finances provide limited opportunities for public investments, it is critical for governments from advanced, emerging and developing countries to engage the private sector now to scale-up investment in transport infrastructure, said OECD Secretary-General.
Boosting private sector investment in sustainable transport infrastructure will be essential as governments seek to meet long-term economic and environmental objectives at a time of constrained public finances, according to a new OECD report.
Ports are the nervous system of global trade. Over 80% of world cargo (by volume) is transported by sea. Our efforts to raise the efficiency, competitiveness and sustainability of ports can help boost trade, growth and jobs. It can also help us to promote green growth and development in the poorest regions, said OECD Secretary-General.
Following the delivery of the Strategy in May 2011, green growth will be mainstreamed in OECD analytical work to enrich guidance on a number of country, sector and issue-specific areas. This will involve integrating green growth considerations in Economic Surveys, Environmental Performance Reviews and Innovation Reviews.

23 – 24 May
The OECD Environment Directorate has launched a new project on effects of public policy conditions on leveraging private financing for environmental and climate mitigation investments.
Policies that promote green growth need to be founded on a good understanding of the different factors that affect green growth, and appropriate information is needed to monitor progress and measure results.

James Henry Greathead, (born Aug. 6, 1844Grahamstown, S.Af.—died Oct. 21, 1896London, Eng.), British civil engineer who improved the tunneling shield, the basic tool of underwater tunneling, essentially to its modern form.
Greathead arrived in 1859 in England, where he studied with the noted civil engineer Peter W. Barlow between 1864 and 1867. The tunneling shield invented by Marc Isambard Brunel and used to build the Thames Tunnel was large and unwieldy. Barlow designed a smaller shield, circular in cross section, which Greathead modified to complete the Tower Subway (1869) under the River Thames near the Tower of London. As the shield was pushed forward by screw jacks, the tunnel behind it was lined with cast-iron rings.
In 1886 Greathead began work to carry the City and South London Railway under the Thames near London Bridge, using a larger version of his shield, with which he bored twin tunnels about 10 feet (3 metres) in diameter. In this project he pioneered the use of compressed air in conjunction with the circular shield. His shield, compressed air, and the cast-iron rings used to line the tunnels came to be adopted generally in tunnel construction.

Jez Wells: When Is An Engineer Not An Engineer?
Sounding Off By Jez Wells
Published April 2012
When is an engineer not an engineer?
There's a joke about engineering that's been circulating for so long that it seems almost as old as the discipline itself: "An engineer is someone who can do for 10 pence what any fool can do for a quid". This isn't the kind of comedy material that'll get me a standing ovation at The Comedy Store, but it has got me thinking about those who make sound recordings.
The word 'engineer' seems to be in demand: these people fix our central heating, install satellite dishes, build bridges, concoct chemicals, make foodstuffs, and, if the credits on CD liner notes are to be believed, record sound.
So what does 'engineering' mean? Is there really anything in common between the person in the white overalls who uses knowledge of chemical thermodynamics to design and oversee reactions between substances, and the person in the jeans and T-shirt sticking a microphone inside a kick drum?
Is'recording engineer' an appropriate label that recognises the person at the mixer as someone who is applying scientific principles to construct an artifact, or is it yet another meaningless application of an over-used term, which tells us nothing about that person's skills or training? Does a more flattering interpretation of the above joke, "an engineer is someone who can do much better what any fool can do badly" shed light on what the professional sound recordist is able to offer?
At one end of the debate is the notion that engineers are only those individuals who have gone through an approved course of study that would lead to an MEng degree in the UK, and have subsequently gained sufficient professional competence to become 'chartered' (in the UK, using the title CEng), in the same way that a chartered accountant would.
I'd bet that this would exclude the vast majority of those who are credited with 'engineering' commercial recordings. As one contributor to a heated online discussion about Wikipedia's entry on audio engineering puts it: "[I] understand they are credited as "Engineers" on record labels. I don't care that this may have been done by the recording and entertainment industries for 60 years, it is still a misapplication of the title to people not qualified as engineers. The audio "engineers" you describe are generally not scientifically trained."
At the other extreme are those who argue that, simply because they 'create' something, sound recordists are worthy of this designation. The late Drew Daniels, someone who made much-admired recordings as well as inventing audio devices for the likes of Fender, was clear that when making recordings with microphones, the usual scientific methods of engineering should be abandoned in favour of pure experimentation: "If you want to know how to mic a guitar amp, do it a thousand times" was his exhortation in a verbal scuffle that kicked off on the Audio Engineering Society Journal's online forum over an article called 'Recording Electric Guitar – The Science and The Myth'.
It's the opinions in between that I'm interested in, currently undertaking a public engagement fellowship with the Royal Academy of Engineering, investigating the identity, skill set and knowledge of people who record sound for a living.Please drop me a line if you want to tell me your opinions. Not because I'm kept awake at night worrying that the term 'engineer' might be suffering terrible abuse on record sleeves and CD inlays, but because I suspect that people who make recordings could learn some things from engineering.
I also have a hunch that those who 'do' engineering might do well to look outside of their notions of 'their' discipline and acknowledge the achievements of those who do some of the things they do, albeit in different fields and in combination with different talents. A colleague who's a talented engineer and musician believes that engineers are people who "make things happen well". We should all ask ourselves how we can do this, whether making records or chocolate biscuits. If nothing else, we might be able to save someone 90 pence.

First off, you should use setInterval for repeating timers, since it (tries to) guarantee periodic execution, i.e. any potential delays will not stack up as they will with repeated setTimeout calls. This will execute your function every minute:
function f() {
 console.log(new Date);
setInterval(f, 60 * 1000);
Now, what we need to do is to start this at the exact right time:
function repeatEvery(func, interval) {
 // Check current time and calculate the delay until next interval
 var now = new Date,
 delay = interval - now % interval;
 function start() {
 // Execute function now...
 //... and every interval
 setInterval(func, interval);
 // Delay execution until it's an even interval
 setTimeout(start, delay);
repeatEvery(f, 60 * 1000);

You can try to be as accurate as you can, setting a timeout each X milliseconds and check if the minute has passed and how much time has passed since the last invocation of the function, but that's about it.
You cannot be 100% sure that your function will trigger exactly after 1 minute, because there might be something blocking the event-loop then.
If it's something vital, I suggest using a cronjob or a separate Node.js process specifically for that (so you can make sure the event loop isn't blocked).

You may have to read the comment of MMJ within the linked article. – KooiInc May 29 '12 at 8:26
This may be an idea. The maximum deviation should be 1 second. If you want it to be more precise, lower the milliseconds of setTimeout1.
function checkMinutes(){
 var now = new Date().getMinutes();
 if (now > checkMinutes.prevTime){
 // do something
 console.log('nextminute arrived');
 checkMinutes.prevTime = now;

If in his application a callback from a previous function gets triggered just before checkChange that callback might take 1-2 seconds (if he needs to process something on the spot), so he cannot be 100% sure, right? – alessioalex May 29 '12 at 8:17
True. That's why I added a footnote. Aside from that: a method taking 1-2 seconds processing time would trigger me to optimize my scripting. – KooiInc May 29 '12 at 8:23
+1 nice simple example.... – ManseUK May 29 '12 at 8:48
My first thought would be to use the Date object to get the current time. This would allow you to set your set interval on the minute with some simple math. Then since your worried about it getting off, every 5-10 min or whatever you think is appropriate, you could recheck the time using a new date object and readjust your set interval accordingly.
This is just my first thought though in the morning I can put up some code(its like 2am here).

I've put up a possible solution for you:
/* Usage:
 * coolerInterval( func, interval, triggerOnceEvery);
 * - func : the function to trigger
 * - interval : interval that will adjust itself overtime checking the clock time
 * - triggerOnceEvery : trigger your function once after X adjustments (default to 1)
var coolerInterval = function(func, interval, triggerOnceEvery) {
 var startTime = new Date().getTime(),
 nextTick = startTime,
 count = 0;
 triggerOnceEvery = triggerOnceEvery || 1;
 var internalInterval = function() {
 nextTick += interval;
 if(count == triggerOnceEvery) {
 count = 0;
 setTimeout(internalInterval, nextTick - new Date().getTime());
The following is a sample usage that prints the timestamp once every minute, but the time drift is adjusted every second
coolerInterval(function() {
 console.log( new Date().getTime() );
}, 1000, 60);
It's not perfect, but should be reliable enough. Consider that the user could switch the tab on the browser, or your code could have some other blocking tasks running on the page, so a browser solution will never be perfect, it's up to you (and your requirements) to decide if it's reliable enough or not.

Subdividing Land
« Back
Reconfiguring a lot
Any changes to the boundaries of land are called "reconfiguring a lot". This generally includes:
 - subdiving a lot
 - amalgamating 2 or more lots
 - rearranging the boundaries of a lot
 - dividing land into separate parts by agreement, including a lease for a term, including renewal options, exceeding 10 years
What is subdivision
Under the Planning Act 2016, all subdivision is called "reconfiguring a lot".
Most subdivisions need planning approval from Goondiwindi Regional Council. You need to apply for approval for reconfiguring a lot to subdivide land.
Proposed subdivisions are assessed according to the relevant planning scheme to ensure that lots:
 - have an appropriate size and shape for a home or other use
 - have minimal impacts on surrounding land uses
You will need to use a land surveyor and possibly other specialists to subdivide land. If the reconfiguring a lot application is approved, you will need to have the plan of survey approved by the Council. You must then arrange for the plans to go to the Queensland Titles Office within the Department Resources to be registered. After the survey plan is registered, separate titles are then created for each lot.
There will be costs to connect any new lots to Council infrastructure such as water and sewerage. In addition to the connection costs, you may be required to pay a contribution towards other Council services such as parks and gardens.

Disk Investigator is a multi-purpose, powerful hard disk tool that lets you find raw data saved on disk partitions, and check unreadable disk clusters and sectors. The application is built to navigate through the disk sectors, while showing the raw data in HEX, TEXT, and Decimal form. This not only helps you identify identical data written on the disk partitions, but also verify the performance of data shredding utilities. If you've recently used a file shredder to securely delete data from disk partition, it lets you view the current raw data present on the disk. Moreover, the application gives detailed insight into disk structure, including total logical sectors, bytes per sector, sectors per cluster, cluster size, MFT start cluster, MFT zone clusters and more. Additionally, it includes a simple, yet feature-rich file explorer that lets you view files and folders saved on disk, check raw data (in Text, Dec, and Hex form) of selected file, and check CRC-32, and MD5, Hash, RipeMD, and SHA hash value.
When launched for the first time, it starts fetching disk information, including starting sector on disk, cluster distribution, total clusters etc. Once done, you will see main window, showing all the information retrieved during the scan process. It shows drive view with complete disk information, and raw data written on first sector of disk. However, you can use Sector input field and slider to navigate through disk sectors. If you want to search a specific text string from the disk, use Search option to view specified text/hex values.
Using View cluster option, you can check data on a single cluster. You can switch between Text, Hex, and Dec data forms to easily find the required information. It provides you with simple navigation buttons in bottom-left corner to navigate through clusters.
You can view files and directories on the disk by switching to Directories mode from View section. It shows all the folders and files saved on selected disk partition. A small disk explorer is present in left sidebar, letting you quickly jump to required directory.
Perhaps, the most useful option of file explorer is View raw file contents, which allows you to view raw data (text, dec, and hex form) of any selected file. Just right-click the file in the list, and select this option to open disk sector where file is saved. You can also open file's Property dialog box, view CRC-32 and generate file integrity hash values from right-click context menu.
The application also lets you view MFT zone (Master File Table), an area on disk where information about files and directories is saved. The MFT is basically table of contents of a NTFS disk, allowing you to verify the structure of files and directory storage. Using Disk Investigator, you can view the MFT Zone from View menu.
Directory Investigator is meant for proficient users. If you're familiar with Hex and Dec data forms, you can use it to check the password text saved on the disk, find the total occurrence of specific file-related information etc. Disk Investigator can also be used to verify the performance of file shredding utilities that claim to securely delete data off the disk partitions. It works on all versions of Windows. Testing was carried out on Windows 7 64-bit.

Diverter valves often leak, it's common knowledge. Regardless of the amount of air that escapes a valve, if any air escapes it is correct to say there is a leak.
Common tests used to detect a diverter valve leak include smoke testing the intake tract (read more on this here), removing the valve and pressurising the ports (usually in conjunction with a bucket of water or some soap to find a leak), a vacuum pump on the top port or any combination of these.
When such tests are applied and indicate a leak coming from a GFB TMS valve however, what is often not understood is the scale of a leak, where it originates from, and whether or not it is detrimental to engine performance.
GFB TMS valve design criteria
GFB TMS valves are designed with maximum throttle response in mind first, followed by the ability to vent to atmosphere for noise (if desired) on cars that typically don't allow atmosphere venting.
The piston-type valve design used by GFB satisfies the broadest range of design requirements and applications, which is why it continues to be used. For example, the dual outlet Hybrid design pioneered by GFB back in 1999 is only possible with a piston-type valve – dual outlets and 50/50 venting simply cannot be done with a factory poppet type valve.
Sealing a piston in a bore is simple, right? Use an O-ring and no air will be able to leak past – this is how hydraulic and pneumatic pistons and rams work. GFB TMS valves however, do not use an O-ring on the piston as is sometimes found on other brands, for two important reasons:
1. Minimum sliding friction is a key requirement for both optimum performance and successful atmosphere-venting operation. Friction in the piston travel can cause undesirable side-effects such as poor throttle response, compressor surge, idling problems, stalling and backfiring.
For optimum throttle response, the piston must be able to move freely in reaction to very small changes in pressure (the forces involved can actually be very small). O-rings create significant friction, no matter how loosely compressed, and worse still, the amount of friction varies greatly depending on the amount of lubrication, temperature, and how long the O-ring has been stationary (they tend to take a "set" after a while of not moving, and require significantly more force to get moving again)
It is simply not possible for a piston-type valve to operate properly with even the smallest amount of friction added by an O-ring.
2. O-rings in sliding operation require frequent replacement and/or lubrication.
Instead of O-rings, GFB TMS valves have multiple design features that offer the best balance between lowest friction, longest service life and minimal leak. These features are:
GFB products are manufactured exclusively on CNC machines capable of holding tolerances to +/- 0.01mm. This is essential since the piston-to-bore clearance is critical to ensure good sealing and low friction.
Material choice:
The piston is made from brass, which offers good corrosion resistance and machining properties for tight tolerances, and relatively low friction as it is often used in bearings and bushings. The bore is anodised aluminium, which also offers good machining properties and therefore tight tolerances, whilst the anodising results in an extremely hard and smooth finished surface that resists wear
Piston ring:
In lieu of an O-ring, GFB's pistons use a low-friction Ertalyte™ piston ring, designed much like the rings used on high performance engine pistons to spring outwards against the bore to aid sealing.
Of course, like the pistons in an engine, a small amount of air under pressure will be able to "leak-down" from the top chamber between the piston and bore, and through the split in the piston ring, where it will exit through the valve's venting outlet/s. This is unavoidable if the piston is to remain able to move freely.
If further proof of our argument against the use of O-rings is required, consider that the cost of O-rings in bulk is minimal – usually cents per piece. GFB's piston design already features a groove into which the piston ring fits, so no design change would be required to swap to an O-ring. Yet we choose the best performance by design, even though the Ertalyte™ piston ring and tight tolerances cost more to produce that O-rings.
What about a diaphragm? Diaphragm-type valve designs (as most factory valves are) boast the ability to completely seal the upper chamber, but they do not satisfy our performance design criteria. This is a topic entirely unto itself, and will be covered elsewhere.


text: 1st Grade students just finished a project based on the book "Owl Moon" by Jane Yolen and John Schoenherr. Students learned how to draw an owl using basic shapes. We used watercolor paints in order to finish the owls. The night sky behind the owl was made from flicking white paint onto a black paper using a large paint brush. Students finished the project by gluing on branches and a moon, then cutting out and gluing their owl onto their nighttime background.

When will the BCU shut down the brake hydraulic system through the shutoff valves? When there is a brake system failure or when the landing gear is retracted. (2-12-10 p. 2)
Describe the anti-skid protection.(2-12-10. p. 4) speeds ≥ 10 kt. The BCU comput the wheel spd signl from the 4 speed trans. If 1 signl falls blw the wheel spd avg, brake press is red on that side (both wheels) until the wheel spd returns to norm. Allow for max brake eff, opti brake dist, prvnt skid.
Describe the correct technique for differential braking.(2-12-10 pp. 2-3) Reduce pedal pressure on the opposite side of the turn instead of increasing it on the same side of the turn. The anti-skid function maintains the skid pressure level (≥ 10 kt) precluding the airplane from turning.
Describe the locked wheel protection function of the anti-skid.(2-12-10 p. 4) Active for wheel speeds ≥ 30 kt. It compares wheel speeds signals. If 1 wheel speed is 30% lower than another, a full brake pressure relief is commanded to the associated wheel, allowing the speed to recover.
Describe the touchdown protection incorporated with the anti-skid system? (2-12-10 p. 6) Brakes will work > 3 s from the latest WOW or after the wheels have spun up to 50 kt.
What happens to the touchdown protection if both WOW proximity switches fail in the air position?(2-12-10 p. 6) Main braking capacity will only be available for wheel speeds > 10 kt. When < 10 kt, the main brakes will not work, but the emergency/parking brake is still available.
Describe the gear-retracting-in-flight braking.(2-12-10 pp. 1, 6) Computes signals from the air/ground system & from the landing gear lever position. When the airplane is in-flight & the wheels are cmd to retract, brake press is app to the main wheels. The nose wheel stops by a mech stop within the nose wheel well.
Describe the emergency / parking brake system.(2-12-10 p. 8) Mech cmd & hyd act. separate from the BCU & has no prot funct. When the emerg/parking brake valve is act, hyd press coming from a dedicated accum hyd sys 2 is equal appl to all 4 main ldg gear brakes. Braking is proportional to the handle displacement.
What does the EICAS caution message "EMRG BRK LO PRES" mean? (2-12-10 pp. 8, 10) Enough pressure remaining in the accumulator for at least 1 application of the emergency brake.
How many complete actuations of the emergency/parking brake will a fully charged accumulator support? 6 actuations or ≥ 24 hr of parking brake actuation.(2-12-10 p. 8)
What does the "BRAKE ON" light for the emergency/parking brake mean? (2-12-10 p. 8) Pressure is being applied to the wheel brakes.
When is a "BRAKE OVERHEAT" EICAS caution message generated? (2-12-10 p. 10) LR: Any brake temperature > 450°C(EP brakes = 420°C)
What is the color coding on the brake temperature indicators? (2-12-10 p. 12) LR: Green: < 250°C, Amber: ≥ 250°C EP: Green: < 200°C, Amber: ≥ 200°C
How does the nose wheel steering system work?(2-12-15 p. 1) Electrically controlled & hydraulically operated. A potentiometer box measures the commanded displacement of the pedals & tiller. It sends a signal to the electronic control module which signals the hydraulic manifold to pressurize the steering actuator.
When is the steering electronic control module energized? The electronic control module is energized with WOW & the landing gear down & locked.
What are the nose wheel steering limits?(2-12-15 p. 1) Tiller only : 71°, Pedals only: 5°,Tiller & pedals: 76°.
What happens to the steering system if the nose wheel turns too far using pedals (2-12-15 p. 1) The system disengages (casters) at 7°. To resume steering, use the tiller.
How does the nose wheel center?(2-12-15 p. 2) Centering with the nose gear shock absorber extension is done by a cam. Also centers by caster effect.
If in a 76° turn on the ground, if the nose clears an obstacle will the wings & tail clear? Yes. The turning radius for the nose is the largest followed by the tail. (2-12-15 p. 7 rev 17)
How is pitch controlled?(2-13-10 p. 1) By mechanically-actuated elevators (with a fully duplicated set of command circuits) and an electrically-positioned horizontal stabilizer which is commanded through the pitch trim system.
What happens when the elevator disconnect handle is pulled? Can the controls be reconnected in-flight? (2-13-10 p. 2) Elevator panels are disconnected from one another (left control wheel commands the right elevator only) & the amber "ELEV DISC" light illuminates. Maintenance action on the ground is required to reconnect.
Which side is the autopilot connected to? Can you use it? (2-13-10 p. 2) The autopilot servo is on the left side. The autopilot must not be used.
How many control tabs are on the elevators? 1 servo tab & 1 spring tab on each side. (2-13-10 p. 2)
Describe the servo tabs.(2-13-10 p. 2) Deflects in the opposite direction of the elevator proportionally with elevator deflection reducing the control force required.
Describe the spring tabs.(2-13-10 p. 2) Moves in the oppo dir on the elevator help in movement. Spring tab deflect is proport to ctrl column force imposes an aerodynamic force on the elevator. Stays in a neutral posit at low spds. The spring tab deflect at high spds causes the elev to move.
Describe the pitch trim system.(2-13-10 p. 4) An elect-actuated moveable horiz stab. Cmd both auto (autopilot & spd brake) & manually (trim switches). A pitch trim signal is sent to the horiz stab ctrl unit (HSCU) channels, which after processing it cmd the elec motor in the horiz stab actuator.
Describe the HSCU.(2-13-10 p. 4) In the rear electronics compartment. 2 identical & totally independent channels: main & backup. Trimming rate is dependent on airspeed.
Describe the horizontal stabilizer actuator (HSA).(2-13-10 p. 4) An electromechanical actuator driven by 2 DC motors. 1 motor for main channel & 1 for backup channel. Trim motors will not operate simultaneously.
What is the priority of the pitch trim switches?(2-13-10 p. 6) LH switch overrides RH switch (both override autopilot). First switch actuated has priority for backup vs. main.
Can you actuate the main & backup switches simultaneously?(2-13-10 p. 6) No, the 2nd switch commanded becomes inoperative. (Temporarily or for rest of the flight depending on which unit is installed.)
Describe the pitch trim system protections.(2-13-10 pp. 6, 7)Switch protection If only ½ of a switch is commanded for > 7 s continuously, the HSCU ignores that switch.
Describe the pitch trim system protections.(2-13-10 pp. 6, 7)Runaway In case of a runaway for any trim, press & hold the quick disconnect button until that trim is disabled in accordance with the QRH.
Describe the pitch trim system protections.(2-13-10 pp. 6, 7)Inadvertent actuation Any trim switch is limited to 3 s, even if the switch is pressed > 3 s.
Describe the pitch trim system protections.(2-13-10 pp. 6, 7)HSA excessive load High loads on the horizontal stabilizer may stall the HSA. If a pitch trim switch is pressed for a total of 16 s when the HSA is stalled, the HSCU will turn the associated system (main or backup) off & generate an EICAS warning message.
What is the color code for the analog scale on the EICAS pitch trim indication? Green from 4 to 8° nose up, amber outside that range while on the ground. (2-13-10 p. 14)
Describe the aileron control system.(2-13-15 p. 2) The control wheels are linked together by a torque tube. Cables supply mechanical input to 2 separate hydraulic actuators. Each actuator is supplied by both hydraulic systems, but 1 hydraulic system is capable of supplying full power control.
How do you control the ailerons if both hydraulic systems fail? (2-12-15 p. 2) How do you control the ailerons if both hydraulic systems fail? (2-12

The Shelby American car manufacturing company was founded by the world-renowned racing driver, Carroll Shelby. During the 1950s, he spent his life racing some of the fastest cars. A heart condition ended his motor sports career in 1960 and he turned his attention to manufacturing automobiles. His goal was to install an American engine into a British sports car.
Soon, Shelby learned that AC Motor Cars Limited of England needed a new engine supplier. The British company agreed to work with the ex-race car driver. Shelby then approached the Ford company and convinced a Ford representative to send him two V8 engines. Shelby paired the British sports car with the Ford engine and test drove the vehicle in 1961 at England's Silverstone racetrack. The car reached incredible speeds of 150 mph.
In 1962, the Ford company agreed to provide Shelby with more engines so that Shelby's new prototype would appear in the New York Auto Show. Shelby painted the car yellow and christened it the Cobra. The car was an instant hit at the auto show and was known as the fastest production sports car. Dealers quickly began placing orders for the Cobra.
By 1965, Shelby had manufactured the GT350. This particular car was a Mustang and won the B Production Championship in 1965 and 1966. Shelby continued to manufacture cars, eventually creating one of his most popular vehicles, the GT40. This particular car was designed to compete against the Ferrari. After the introduction of the GT40, it went on to compete in Le Mans, an important racing competition. The GT40s famously finished first, second and third during this historic race.
In 1967, the company manufactured the Shelby GT 500. While previous Shelby cars were designed primarily for racing, the GT500 was suitable for daily driving. The car featured a three-speed automatic or four-speed manual transmission. It also included E70X15 tires and standard front disc brakes. GT500s offered power steering, air conditioning and Mustang GT-level interior trim.
February 1970 signaled the end of Shelby's association with Ford. Together they had built stylish, powerful vehicles that captivated people who loved fast cars. In 1996, Shelby American manufactured updated versions of Cobra 289 FIA, Cobra 427 S/C and Cobra-component cars.
It wasn't until 2004 that Ford and Shelby created a new partnership. During that particular year, the two companies collaborated on the Ford GT. Today, Shelby cars continue to fascinate muscle car enthusiasts who expect excellence, beauty and speed.
