A playground zone is an area that needs protective care to ensure safety of the people who are engaging in various activities. Chilldren mostly get injured or find themselves accidentally falling while playing in playgrounds causing great injury to their bodies. You will need to check the performance and safety of any playground surface you are planning to purchase to ensure it is convenient to use in a playground. Also, you should request a written documentation that indicates the surface complies with the standards set for a quality playground surface.
Durability of the playground surface is also very important if you are selecting for a surface to last for a longer duration of time. Consider going for a surface that has a high density and easy to clean if the playground will receive a large traffic. Consider rubber or mulch for private use since the traffic cannot displace the surface easily while dense rubber for pubic due to the high traffic. There are many factors that you should consider especially for a long term playground surface such as its cost, maintenance and safety performance.
Make sure to plan your budget with regard to the size of the playground so that the flooring surface you buy can fit perfectly without leaving open spaces that might be detrimental to children when they fall on. Make a budget limit in advance while you research adequately on the various prices for playground surfaces that exist to be aware on the cost. As I had said there are different prices for different surfaces and therefore you should not rely on a dealer who will sell you a surface at the cheapest cost as it may tend not to be the best. Before buying any surface ensue that the surface meets the specific requirement for it to be used as a playground surface. If you know you won't manage to install the surface correctly by yourself then you need to list extra cost to spend by hiring an expert to install the surface.
Also, very important factor that you ought to consider is the accessibility of the playground surface such that the material is properly installed. Since young people are the majority players in playgrounds, you should ensure the playground is designed with children elements all over. If you have an even surface in the playground, you will have to level the playground first to ensure that you don't have an uneven surface even after installing your playground surface. If you happen to have a color preference for your playground floor then you may opt to buy a flooring surface that meets your needs.

Dow Set to Open Higher After Friday's Gains
Roland Head, The Motley Fool, AOL.com
Jun 10th 2013 8:03AM
LONDON -- Stock index futures at 7 a.m. EDT indicate that the Dow Jones Industrial Average may open 0.26% higher this morning following a 207-point gain on Friday, while the S&P 500 may open 0.35% higher. CNN's Fear & Greed Index has recovered to 46, or "neutral," after closing at 32, or "fear," on Friday.
European markets were broadly unchanged this morning at the start of what is expected to be quiet day, with no major economic reports due in the U.S or Europe. Overnight news that Japan's first-quarter GDP growth was upgraded from 3.5% to 4.1% helped Japan's Nikkei 225 rebound to a 4.9% gain, and most other Asian markets closed slightly higher after last week's losses. In London, the FTSE 100 is up almost 1% as of 7:35 a.m. EDT, while the German DAX is up 0.9 %. The FTSE was held back by falls for resource stocks, which weakened on news that consumer price-inflation in China dropped 2.1% in May from 2.4% in April, missing consensus forecasts of 2.5%. Falling inflation is likely to indicate weak underlying demand for key commodities.
No U.S. economic reports are due today, so investors may continue to consider the implications of Friday's nonfarm payrolls report, which showed that 175,000 jobs were added to the U.S. economy in May. This is below the 200,000 level needed to deliver a material fall in unemployment, and the unemployment rate rose from 7.5% to 7.6% in May, increasing investors' confidence that the Federal Reserve will continue with its QE program for some time yet.
Among the handful of large companies due to report results today, Texas Instruments is expected to report second-quarter earnings of $0.42 per share on revenue of $3.1 billion after markets close tonight, while clothing retailer Lululemon Athletica is expected to report earnings of $0.30 per share on revenue of $341 million. A Bloomberg report suggested that Google may be about to announce a $1.1 billion deal to acquire Waze, an Israeli mapping and navigation firm. Apple may also be in focus; the iPhone-maker is expected to reveal an updated version of the software used on its iPad and iPhone devices at the firm's annual developer conference, which starts today.
Finally, let's not forget that the Dow's daily movements can add up to serious long-term gains. Indeed, Warren Buffett recently wrote, "The Dow advanced from 66 to 11,497 in the 20th Century, a staggering 17,320% increase that materialized despite four costly wars, a Great Depression and many recessions." If you, like Buffett, are convinced of the long-term power of the Dow, you should read "5 Stocks To Retire On." Your long-term wealth could be transformed, even in this uncertain economy.

Robert Nelson Markle (Hamilton, Ontario, 1936-Holstein, Ontario, 1990) was a Canadian artist, writer, educator and musician. He began his studies at the Ontario College of Art (OCA) in 1954, but was expelled before graduation. While at OCA, he met Marlene Shuster, a fellow student, whom he married in 1958. The focus of Markle's work from his early days was the female nude, particularly burlesque dancers, and Marlene became his primary model and muse. In 1962 Markle had his first group exhibition at The Isaacs Gallery in Toronto, becoming one of the "Isaacs Group" of artists. In 1965, Markle paintings shown in the exhibition Eros '65 at the Dorothy Cameron Gallery were seized on a charge of obscenity, drawing considerable media attention. In the mid-1960s Markle began to write for magazines such as the Toronto Telegram Showcase, Maclean's, and Toronto Life, publishing widely on topics as diverse as striptease, hockey, childhood Christmases, and Gordon Lightfoot. Markle also worked extensively as an illustrator, contributing images to magazines and literary journals. His work as an educator included terms at The New School of Art (1966-1977) and Arts' Sake (1977-1982) as well as OCA and the University of Guelph. From the early 1960s, Markle played tenor saxophone and piano in the Artists' Jazz Band. In 1970 the Markles moved to a farmhouse outside of Holstein, Ontario, although Robert re-established a studio in Toronto from 1979 to 1982. In 1979, he won a commission to decorate a Toronto hamburger restaurant, which was named Markleangelo's in his honour. His other large-scale commissions include wall-sculptures for the Ellen Fairclough Building in Hamilton, Ontario, and the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. He executed painted outdoor murals in Owen Sound and Mount Forest, Ontario. Markle was killed in a traffic accident in 1990. Of Mohawk ancestry, Markle used his mother's spelling of his surname, although it was spelled "Maracle" on his birth certificate. Markle worked primarily in painting and ink drawing, and also explored photography, collage, printmaking, wooden sculpture and neon. He collected folk art, which inspired a number of whirligig works later in his career. His work is in numerous public and private collections, including the Art Gallery of Ontario and the National Gallery of Canada.
Fonds was donated by Marlene Markle in 2004.

Space Town
I would like you to take this very good song and play around with it a bit more before I land a final verdict until then I see this as more of a Techno song than I do a Dance song. Still quite good though it's just missing something to make it stand out a bit more.
xD {^}-{Alix1}-{^}
Quite Good
It is repetitive at some points, but other than that it is a very enjoyable Techno song. My only complaint had to be the end because you didn't finish big, just with repetitive notes at the end. I was expecting some kind of finale, but was dissappointed. Once again you should've really played around with this more than you did, but it is still enjoyable.

MH16: Shooting The Stars
I Enjoyed This
The small build-up at the beginning and the whole song came together so smoothly. The title certainly did fit the song very well. I picture shooting stars flying through the sky on a warm Summer night. You have made quite the enjoyable song here today. Bravo!
FairSquare	responds:
Einsamer Soldat{^}-{Alix1}-{^}
Repetitive and Boring
Honestly this quite bland. There was really nothing here. I read your description of the poem you made here and was surprised that the song had nothing to do with the poem. So what was the point of posting the poem? As for the song itself like I said it was boring. No notes really stuck out because of your repetitive notes that you had placed. All in all you didn't give a whole lot for a four minute song, you could've experimented with this more than you did. Take this song and add more, possibly some strings here or there.
All right. Ummmm.. I need to learn how to make some violin ore something sound good. I'm sorry it was boring..
High Sea Hijinx
Simply outstanding. It is simple yet very fun and catchy as well. I quite enjoyed this song, to be honest I really enjoyed this song. I see a ship of pirates sailing for many treasures stealing from people and causing havoc. It's like a title theme for a good old fashioned Saturday morning cartoon. Superb work and keep it up.
Cydrius	responds:
Thanks for the compliment! I'll do my best!
Forest of Sorrow
Darkness Indeed
I do love the darkness you've put into this. Very dark and creepy as well. It gives off a very gothic feeling to it, like being lost in a forest underneath a full moon. Certainly a wonderous Classical piece.
Going Downtown
A bit jumbled
I think this is an experiment for you and it turned out quite well, it was a bit jumbled in some points, but at other points it was quite enjoyable. Really enjoyable actually. I felt like I was in a video game while listening to this. All I can say is keep up the great work.
itsameyayo	responds:
Hmm, jumbled? I wish you could have explained a little more on that, but that's okay. It might be because of all the different styles I meshed together. Some of the transitions are sudden, some are flowing.
-Well thank you for this review! I will definitely keep up the great work and hope that I can do well in Nashville, lol.
-ImperfectDisciple
Intake Part I
This is indeed quite good. It's a nice dark song, but still light where it needed to be. It is a bit odd, but that is something I like. This has many good uses if given the right material. Your guitar work was also quite nice in this song, everything came together quite nicely. My only complaint was the guitar work at the beginning, it just didn't sound right. Other than that it's perfect.
thank you. The begginning is just some lead guitar I opened with, but unlike most of my lead guitar I can still recreate it on guitar, so it was something I composed and practiced. I suppose that might sound a little bit off becuase I don't have the greatest recording conditions all the time, so maybe the recording quality is a little differant or off.
Ferlon and Marion (Short Ver.)
My 400th Audio Review
It's amazing. My 300th Audio Review was also one of your submissions. Once again you have astounded me, this time through loop form which is amazing because it loops perfectly and makes you think you're still listening to a long song. I wouldn't mind hearing the original version of this song.
Was it 400th or 300th? Anyways, I'm glad you've made such a huge contribution to this site and the audio portal. Kudos to you!
Also, thanks for taking the time to review some of my music and I am currently working on the extended version of this song.
See you around,
6AM No More
Quite Enjoyable
I did enjoy this very much, the only question is the title. It's the only thing that throws me off. Also I don't really see this as Techno, but Trance. The only other complaint I have is that more could've been played around with this than what you did. It's a nice song, but something is missing.
GronmonSE	responds:
I suck at picking genres.
And eh, tried making the song full with extra instruments. Length and an amazing climax is what's probably missing, considering it's relatively short.
As for the title, you'll have to put the pieces together but I'm describing it a little more on the review above yours.
Thanks for the review.

A uniform orthography and early linguistic research in Australia
Posted on 16 October 2013 by moored03 — 13 Comments
David Moore
A Uniform orthography can be defined as one which is segmental and phonographic. Each graphic segment is pronounced and has a distinct value. Internal consistency in transcription is achieved by defining each segment and the sound that it represents in the orthography. Each sound of a language is assigned a segment: a letter or a combination of letters which is outlined in statement of the orthography or 'phonetic key'. By contrast, a non-uniform writing system involves writing languages where the value of each segment is unspecified. If the language of transcription is English, there is a poor correspondence between the letter and sound. The problem is particularly acute with English vowels. The five vowel letters of English are polyvalent; that is they each represent a number of English phonemes. Ten English phonemes are represented by <a> in English (Coulmas 2003: 186). Also, each English vowel phoneme can be represented by different graphemes. The spelling may be at the word level and based on what Dench (2000:59) says is 'subjective impression of similarity to particular English words'. Individual segments in this 'logographic' spelling have little or no phonetic interpretation.
Uniform orthographies were the forerunners of the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). The first Australianist linguist to use the IPA appears to have been John McConnell Black (1855-1951), for a language of the Western Desert (Black 1915). I claim that some early investigators of Australian languages used Uniform orthographies in their writing of Australian Aboriginal languages and avoided the problems of English-based spelling.
Antecedents: Uniform orthographies in the late 1700s
Amongst English-speaking researchers of the late eighteenth century there were opposed views of the way in which words from Arabic, Persian and Sanskrit should be transliterated from their original scripts to the characters of the roman alphabet. Halhed and others advocated the use of English sound values (Master 1946). The year 1788 is significant as the date of the first British settlement in Australia, and is also the date of publication of the Dissertation on the Orthography of Asiatick Words in Roman Letters (Jones 1788). Its author, Sir William Jones (1746-1794), realised that the languages of the Indian subcontinent couldn't be written consistently using the sound values of the English alphabet. He wanted to represent vowels with their 'continental' (particularly Italian) values. There was little difference between Jones and his opponents in the representation of consonant sounds. According to Jones, 'each original sound may be rendered invariably by one appropriated symbol, conformably to the natural order of articulation, a perfect system of letters ought to contain one specific symbol for every sound used in pronouncing the language to which they belonged' (Cannon 1990:249). I use 'roman' in lower case for the twenty six letters of the roman writing system, as distinct from that of a particular language.
The widespread adoption of the Jonesian system
The Dissertation excited great interest in Britain and Europe (Master 1946:7). There were many attempts to represent the sounds of hitherto unwritten languages according to Jones' conventions. John Pickering (1777-1846) recommended the use of the Jonesian system for recording American Indian languages (Pickering 1820). In 1807 the Reverend John Davies sent the Congregationalist London Missionary Society (LMS) a copy of his manuscript for a "Tahitian Spelling Book" for publication, using the occasion to argue for the 'continental' system (Schütz 1994:107). The LMS adopted the system for Tahitian. Lancelot Threlkeld (1788-1859) worked for the LMS in the 1820s and used the 'South Sea Islands' orthography in his Australian Grammar (Threlkeld 1834).
Royal Geographical Society conventions 1836
Travellers needed a guide to the correct pronunciation of foreign names. Number three of the Journal's aims was the development of a 'more uniform and systematic orthography than has hitherto been observed, in regard to the names of cities and other objects; and a more precise and copious vocabulary than we at present possess, of such objects' (Prospectus of the Royal Geographical Society: xi). The first explicit statement of the RGS orthographic conventions appears to have been in a footnote to Observations on the Coast of Arabia between Rás Mohammed and Jiddah (Wellsted 1836). See also Aurousseau (1942:245). Wellsted's use of the RGS conventions was to write place names of Arabic, an Afro-Asiatic (Semitic) language with a Classical literature.
The vowel letters would be pronounced as for Italian and as read in selected English words: the <a> in 'far', <e> in 'there', <i> in 'ravine', <o> in 'cold' and the <u> in 'rude'.
The consonants were to be pronounced as for English. The footnote reveals the writer's familiarity with the sounds of British languages and English dialects and show an attempt to explain the unfamiliar by the familiar. The 'Northumbrian r', probably [ʁ], the use of the voiced uvular fricative allophone/variant of post-alveolar approximant /ɹ/ (Hughes, Trudgill and Watt 2005:124) is compared with a 'guttural' sound of Arabic, probably غ gayn, the voiced velar fricative [ɣ], transliterated <gh>. The voiceless velar fricative ch [x] of Welsh and Scots is compared with Arabic, خ xā', and transliterated <kh>. Digraphs and the apostrophe were used to represent sounds for which there was no conventional spelling in European languages. Ain ع, a voiced pharyngeal fricative [ʕ] was transliterated with an apostrophe.
The use of the RGS conventions in Australia
The RGS conventions were used for the transcription of hitherto unwritten languages and this was the case in Australia where all the Aboriginal languages of the continent were unwritten until the arrival of Europeans. In Australia, as elsewhere, some early researchers used uniform orthographies and others wrote sounds according to their knowledge of English.
Dr John Lhotsky (1795-1865) collected language data in the Australian Alps from January to March 1834 and from Tasmania in 1836. His contribution to the Journal (Lhotsky 1839) appears to be the first example of the application of RGS conventions to an Australian language.
Recognition of consonant sounds
Early researchers had a pioneering role in recording sounds on paper for the first time. Awareness of foreign sounds increased with time spent in the field. Threlkeld (1834:6) had already encountered the velar nasal [ŋ] word-initially, based upon his hearing of Polynesian languages in which the sound commonly occurs at the beginning of a word. His recognition of the velar nasal probably led later other Australian researchers to recognise the sound in Aboriginal languages.
Lyon (1833) heard a sound which he compared with Classical Hebrew ע ayin, a voiced pharyngeal fricative [ʕ]: 'the Ain of the Hebrew, the pronunciation of which has been so long a desideratum to the philologists of Europe, these people (Nyungar speakers) seem to possess in perfection' (Lyon, Perth Gazette 30th March 1833). Lyon doesn't identify the sound in Nyungar which the ayin resembles. Although [ʕ] doesn't occur in Nyungar, this instance shows Lyon attempting to describe the unfamiliar by the more familiar. However, ayin had become a 'silent letter' in Hebrew and its sound value would have been difficult for Lyon to recover. Lhotsky (1839) noted that would be 'more accurately rendered by Polish z' which has no equivalent in the English tongue'.He was referring to /ʑ/, the voiced palatal fricative.
The consonant letters of the roman alphabet which were discarded are as significant as those which were included. Early researchers edited their work and made orthographic choices, using a selection of letters. Redundant letters such as <c> and <q> were discarded. Lyon (1833), comparing sounds in the Nyungar language with the Classical Hebrew alphabet noticed that the Nyungar language had 'neither the Zain [z], the Samedi [s], nor the Schin [ʃ] of the Hebrews. The letter s, they are incapable of pronouncing'. He felt that he was 'obliged to throw out every letter which was in the least allied in sound to the letter s'. George Fletcher Moore (1798-1886) read the RGS Journal and utilised the RGS conventions (Moore 1842:vii). In 1833 he obtained the name 'carrar' for the black goanna (Varanus tristis) from Weeip, one of his Nyungar-speaking informants (Cameron 2009). The entry was changed to 'kardar' for the Descriptive Vocabulary (Moore 1842:56) after <c> had been eliminated from the orthography. Salvado (1851) wrote <c> in his transcription of Nyungar words for the palatal plosive /c/ which Moore represented with <dj>:
Table 1: Transcription of Nyungar word for 'Wedge- tailed Eagle'.
Moore 1842 waldja
Salvado 1851 ualce, ualge
Although the IPA eventually adopted [c] for the palatal plosive, the use of non-English consonantal values would not have helped the English-speaking reader. The users of the RGS were English-speaking Britons and so the use of English consonantal values, where this aim was realistic, was practical. Even though researchers were encouraged to use the values of English consonants they found ways to be creative in representing unfamiliar sounds.
Scott Nind (1831:47) noted that the Nyungar language 'abounds in vowels' but the values of the individual segments are not spelled out and no phonetic key to his transcription is provided, as can be seen in comparison with that of researchers who used the RGS:
Table 2: Early Transcriptions of Nyungar word for 'Black Duck'
Nind 1831 wainern
Lyon 1833 goona-na
Grey 1839 ngoon-un
Moore 1842 ngwonana
Salvado 1851 n-unan
Travel and levels of education
The use of uniform orthographies presupposes a level of language awareness, often lacking among settlers in the frontier Australian communities of the nineteenth century. Then, as now, there were those who sought to write Aboriginal words according to English spelling conventions. Educated and travelled researchers were familiar with European languages and the languages and English dialects of Britain and Ireland. They had often engaged with what Clarke (1959:176) describes as 'that form of foreign travel which we know as the study of the classics', including Hebrew, Greek and Latin. They tended to be more aware of the limitations of English spelling because they had experience of foreign language scripts in which each letter had a distinct pronunciation which had to be learned.
The late nineteenth century
The RGS conventions were published as a 'System of orthography for native names of places' in the Proceedings (RGS 1885). The RGS aimed for a pronunciation of the 'true sound pronounced locally'. Characters were selected from the twenty six letters of the roman alphabet. Of the thirty-four characters of the RGS, four digraphs represented consonant sounds and four other digraphs represented dipthongs. Hyphens were not allowed, and accent marks were only allowed for indicating stress.
As more sounds were discovered, the resources of the roman alphabet were found to be inadequate. Augmentation of the roman alphabet was necessary to write new sounds. The consonant digraphs were increased to nine in the 1892 revision. The RGS authors remained committed to the letters of the roman alphabet with limited additions: 'Those who desire a more accurate pronunciation of the written name must learn it on the spot by a study of local accent and peculiarities' (RGS 1885). The letters of the 1885 orthography:
The RGS in the history of Australian linguistics
In Australian linguistic writing, there has been little appreciation that uniform orthographies represented a genuine advance on English-based spelling. Uniform orthographies and their value to linguistic research are unacknowledged in the literature on the history of Australian language research. Dixon, Ramson and Thomas (1990:7) dismiss the work of R.H.Mathews (1841-1918) and others: 'Unfortunately, these early recorders were not trained linguists and wrote down Aboriginal words in terms of English sounds rather than in a phonetic alphabet'. However they (1990:15) also claim that Aboriginal languages are now written according to a Roman (sic) alphabet, implying that uniform orthographies utilising roman characters were only created in the twentieth century by professional linguists. Surely R.H. Mathews used the resources of the roman alphabet (Koch 2008). As argued in this paper, the aim of the RGS orthography was to circumvent the need for English spelling conventions.
It is fortunate for language documentation that many Aboriginal languages were written according to the RGS orthography. There are differences in quality in early wordlists and it is more likely that words were transcribed accurately with a uniform orthography. The RGS orthography was in use from the 1830s and gradually refined over the following century. The RGS system enabled English-speaking researchers to transcend the inconsistencies of English spelling. The extent to which the researchers recorded sounds accurately according to the RGS conventions must be answered in individual cases.

13 comments on "A uniform orthography and early linguistic research in Australia"
David Nash says:
William Dawes departed England the year before Jones 1788 was published. Dawes' record of the Sydney Language, made up until he left Sydney in 1791, used a uniform orthography, which he set out at the beginning of one notebook http://www.williamdawes.org/ms/msview.php?image-id=book-b-page-1 Dawes did in practice add to his table, e.g. using td for the interdental stop, but his orthography is based on Latin (or Italian), augmented by ŋ. I wonder where Dawes had picked up ŋ from?
moored03 says:
The ŋ eng or engma symbol must have been known for some time? I wonder whether later Australian works acknowledged Dawes and were influenced by Dawes 1791?
The vowels in Dawes' manuscripts look as though they are based on English, compared with e.g, the RGS 1885 orthography. Did Dawes claim that used Latin or Italian?
Yes sorry you're right about Dawes' vowel symbols David; they have a specified English value, and for vowels I should not have said " his orthography is based on Latin (or Italian)". I don't think we have any comment by Dawes about his methods. Jeremy Steele in his 2005 MA thesis http://hdl.handle.net/1959.14/738 carefully analysed Dawes' system of transcription (he detects three successive variants) and I think it counts as a uniform orthography.
As to the influence of Dawes' work, Steele (2005:39) summarised it thus: "When Dawes left the colony in 1791, with him departed many of those who knew him best and knew his work, and others such as Governor Phillip and David Collins were to follow. If memory of Dawes and his contribution to learning the indigenous language lingered, it did not last a generation." The transcription that was in a position to be influential was Collins' through his vocabulary published in his widely read 'Account of the English colony in NSW' (1798, 1804), though Collins' spelling falls short of being uniform. He should've paid (even?) more attention to Dawes!
Thanks for the link. Steele gives us a good insight into Dawes' methods. It appears that Dawes' model of grammatical description was influenced by his study of Latin and French. I agree that Dawes' orthography is uniform and he might have refined it over time if he had stayed in New South Wales.
The Dawes manuscripts show that the ŋ was used earlier than the nineteenth century IPA and Ellis-Pitman systems. According to Pullum and Laduslaw in The Phonetic Symbol Guide, 'It occurred in this form with this value in Isaac Pitman's 1845 Phonotypic alphabet'. Albright in the IJAL Vol. 24 (January 1958), page 11: 'There seems little doubt this excellent symbol, usually credited to Pitman and Ellis in the nineteenth century, was invented by Holder two centuries earlier'.
William Holder, Elements of Speech: An Essay of Inquiry into the Natural Production of Letters with an Appendix concerning Persons Deaf and Dumb (London: John Martin, 1669).
More on ŋ: as well as its promotion by Pitman, Benjamin Franklin earlier used the symbol in his 'Reformed Mode of Spelling' http://archive.org/stream/politicalmiscell00franrich#page/470/mode/2up (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benjamin_Franklin%27s_phonetic_alphabet), which was published in London in 1779 (Franklin lived in France from 1776 to 1785 as US Ambassador).
It is notable that the RGS 1885 orthography explicitly used the digraph ng for both [ŋ] and [ŋg] while recognising the "two separate sounds". A small irony is that the coastal dialect of the Sydney Language, the one Dawes was learning, is unusual among Australian languages in lacking [ŋg] — inland ŋg corresponds to coastal ŋ by Dawes' Law (as I dubbed it).
At least unlike wouldn't be confused with a consonant cluster. The RGS orthography may have influenced Baldwin Spencer who also confused [ŋ] with [ŋg]. The Permanent Committee on Geographical Names (Gleichen 1921) is even more confusing: 'ng has three separate sounds, as in engrave, finger and singer' The Permanent Committee and the revised RGS (called Geographic II) was used by Australianists such as Tindale,
Spencer in the 'Glossary of Native Terms Used' in The Arunta (1927: 610): 'there are two separate sounds. If the letters occur in the middle of a word, they are actually sounded separately as in mangrove. If at the beginning of a word, they are sounded as in English. Both sounds occur in such a word as Ngurangura, 'evening'.'
Ng occurring at the beginning of a word is exactly not like English. Only ŋ occurs in Ngurangura. The glossary is full of inconsistencies. The example words in the phonetic key are all English which is difficult when a sound of Arrernte is not like any of the sounds in English.
In the first line I meant to say: "At least unlike couldn't be read as a consonant cluster."
When Spencer (1927: 610) wrote "at the beginning of a word, they are sounded as in English" he presumably meant "at the beginning of a word, they are sounded as [the ng is] in [the word] 'English'".
It appears that is what he meant, the ng in 'ring' and 'singer'. He misses the ŋ in alkna 'eye' and oknia 'father' and the cluster in atninga 'avenging party'. Sometimes [ŋ] is represented with as in erilknabota, 'a very wise man', but often not. The correct pronunciation can't be derived from Spencer's transcription, because as the preceding examples show, its not predictably inaccurate. And this is Spencer 1927 not Spencer at the beginning of his Central Australian fieldwork! Its the difference between who only spent a few months in contact with speakers and Carl Strehlow who spent 26 years in contact with speakers of the language and whose orthography is consistent. Without a detailed knowledge of the language, Spencer would have been reliant on accurate transcription of words which were used in books like The Arunta- its in phonetic transcription that he fails most noticeably.
Correction: Sometimes [ŋ] is represented with , as in erilknabota, 'a very wise man'
I've just chanced on this commentary on the RGS conventions, in the entry for the WA town 'Dwellingup' in http://www.landgate.wa.gov.au/corporate.nsf/web/History+of+country+town+names When the name was proposed as 'Dwellingupp' in 1909,
The double p spelling in the original gazettal of this name was used because the Lands and Surveys Department had adopted a system for spelling Aboriginal names developed by the Royal Geographical Society. A number of Aboriginal names ending in "up" were for a time spelt with the "upp" ending (including Kirupp, Kulikupp, Manjimupp and Mungalupp). The RGS system had a rule that vowels are pronounced as in Italian and consonants as in English. This would have meant that names ending in "up" should have been pronounced as "oop", because the Italian "u" was a long "u", as in flute. These Aboriginal names were meant to be pronounced as "up", and the Department asked the RGS for a rule to assist in correct pronunciation. The RGS solution was that doubling the following consonant shortened the preceding vowel, and this meant the "upp" ending ensured the "up" pronunciation. However, this particular rule was rescinded in 1915 for SW towns with the suffix "up", as the Australian way of pronouncing the letter "u" was almost always short, and rarely the Italian "oo".
Thanks for that link. There are numerous references to the official Western Australian orthography. Although the Department had some success in implementing its guidelines with 'Kunjin' and 'Kunanalling' among many others, it was frustrated by 'cacographic' English spelling. I've written about the WA conventions in a longer version of the above post:
The RGS conventions were adopted officially in Western Australia but place names continued to be spelled inconsistently. In 1901 Western Australia issued The Spelling of Native Geographical Names following correspondence between the Western Australian Minister for Lands and the Royal Geographical Society in London. Robert Cecil Clifton (1854-1931) became Western Australian Under Secretary for lands in 1891, a position he held for twenty-seven years. He attempted to implement a Uniform orthography for recording place names in the Western Australian goldfields, but was frustrated by 'the objection of officials and people generally to adopting the system'. Settlers would move to a new centre in the goldfields and adopt its Aboriginal name. Official spelling guidelines were ignored in favour of spellings based upon English. The Society referred Clifton to the conventions of 1885 and reassured him that the RGS orthography would be able to record all of the place names of Western Australia. Clifton said that the Lands Department officials would attempt to implement the RGS system 'but require the assistance of the public, and more particularly the Press to back them up'.


While national anthem protests have slowed around the NFL, it has still dominated national conversation throughout this season.
So what if such protests — namely kneeling — were to surface at the Super Bowl?
Fred Gaudelli, the executive producer of the Super Bowl, told reporters Tuesday night that the network would indeed capture any kneeling at the game.
"It was a pretty big story in our country this fall," Gaudelli said Tuesday. "The Super Bowl is a live event, just like 'Sunday Night Football.' When you're covering a live event, you're covering whats happening.
"So if there are players that choose to kneel, they will be shown live. I would say, probably since Thanksgiving, a lot of that has kind of disappated and died down. It's certainly possible it could happen again."
Of course, not all protests during the anthem have been broadcast, but the attention it's gotten seems to warrant that it be televised at the biggest football event of the year.
The anthem protest conversation reached new heights following Donald Trump's comments and tweets demanding that teams remove any players who choose to kneel.
The league united following Trump's comments that owners must "get that son of a b---- off the field" if a player protests, and the President added fuel to the fire via Twitter in the proceeding weeks.
"Two dozen NFL players continue to kneel during the National Anthem, showing total disrespect to our Flag & Country. No leadership in NFL!" Trump tweeted in October.
The country can probably count on Trump to fire up his Twitter account once again if there's any protests on Super Bowl Sunday.

Tauszki Rudolf (; Pest, 1833. – New York, N.Y, USA, 1889. november 21.) magyar honvéd katonaorvos, magyar, olasz, amerikai szabadságharcos.

Élete
Tauszki Pesten végezte el az orvosi egyetemet, tanárai közt ott találjuk a híres Semmelweis Ignácot. A magyar honvéd katonaorvosok közül, akik menekülni kényszerültek, legtöbben Amerikában találtak menedéket. Közülük való dr. Tauszki Rudolf, aki kapitányi rangban volt honvédorvos, majd az itáliai Magyar Légióból, pontosabban annak feloszlatása után került Amerikába. Az amerikai polgárháborúban is katonaorvos volt (1863 szeptember 24-1865 július 27). Ezredorvosi beosztást is ajánlottak neki színes ezredben, de azt nem vállalta, (állítólag az nem jelentett volna azonnali előlépést a ranglétrán). A polgárháború ideje alatt tábori kórházakban dolgozott, de gyakran harctereken is. 1865 július 27-én dicsérettel bocsátották el a katonaorvosi szolgálatból.

A polgárháború után visszatért Európába, bécsi kórházakban tanulmányozta a nőgyógyászati betegségeket. Amerikába visszatérve egy rövid időre belépett katonaorvosnak az amerikai hadseregbe, de 1868-ban már végleg New Yorkban telepedett le. Orvosi praxist létesített, megbecsült orvossá vált. Különböző egészségügyi intézményekben dolgozott, sokat foglalkoztatták őt a lakosság egészségtelen lakhatási körülményei. New York város egészségügyi tanácsának tagjává választották. Szeretett volna egy télen is igénybe vehető meleg vizes fürdőt létesíteni New Yorkban, de a pénzhiány ezt megakadályozta. Legtöbbet a Mount Sinai Kórházban dolgozott, e kórház volt az első amerikai zsidó kórház, 1852-ben alapították, itt Tauszki a nőgyógyászati osztályt irányította. 1880 körül a mentális betegségekkel is sokat foglalkozott, az elmebaj egyik elismert szakértőjévé vált.

Élete vége felé depresszióba esett, ennek közvetlen oka volt szerencsétlenül sikerült házassága. 1883-ban feleségül vett egy alig 20 éves nőt, Frances Rosenthalt, a fiatal feleség nem értette meg férje rajongását hivatása iránt. Tauszki
apja halála és felesége meg nem értése miatt 1885 január 3-án rálőtt feleségére, majd öngyilkosságot kísérelt meg, egyikük sérülései sem bizonyultak súlyosnak. A bíróság Tauszkit beszámíthatatlannak minősítette, így élete hátralevő részét a Bloomingdale elmegyógyintézetben (Bloomingdale Insane Asylum) töltötte.

Q: Referring to an object defined by a variable I have a problem, which I couldn't solve recently.
I have this code
        foreach (Hashtable i in (ArrayList)inv["database"])
        {
            if (i != null)
            {
                if (i["type"].ToString() == "1")
                {
                    if (i["dataValue"].ToString() != "0")
                    {
                        inv{nn}.Image = Program.Properties.Resources._i["type"].ToString()+"-"+i["dataValue"].ToString();
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        inv{nn}.Image = Program.Properties.Resources._i["type"].ToString()
                    }
                }
            }
            nn++;
        }

I have 36 controls(it's a class i have in my project, so not "vanilla" one), and each one of them is a single "picturebox". I have 505 images in the following syntax:
If the data value is 0, then it's {typeID}.png, if the data value is above 0, then {typeID}-{dataValue}.png
So for example if it's the first loop,  i["type"].ToString() = 1 and i["dataValue"].ToString() = 3, the Image of inv0 changes to Program.Proporties.Resources._1-3
When the second loop comes the image of inv1 changes etc. ... till inv35
Is such thing possible? I tried
InterpolationBox x = Form1.FindControl("inv"+nn)

and I seem not to have such thing as FindControl (FrameWork 4) with System.Web.UI used.
I tried
InterpolationBox x = this.Controls.Find("inv" + nn, false);

And I got Unable to cast object of type 'System.Windows.Forms.Control[]' to type 'Program.InterpolatedBox'. And anyway, if I'd get rid of that error, would I be able to change that actual picturebox, not just the copied 'x' one?

A: InterpolationBox x = this.Controls.Find("inv" + nn, false);

Is where your problem lies.
The error you got is telling:

Unable to cast object of type 'System.Windows.Forms.Control[]' to type
  'Program.InterpolatedBox'.

You can see it's saying it can't cast an array of System.Windows.Forms.Control to a Program.InterpolationBox which is sensible given InterpolationBox is a single control.
The Find method returns an array of controls, not just one, so you need to then look in the array and pull out the one you're after (even if it's just the first one).

As for your question about whether changing x would change the control you got given using Controls.Find() the answer is YES.
Objects in .NET are by reference, which means x isn't an InterpolationBox it's a reference to an InterpolationBox in memory.
You could even do:
var a = x;
var b = a;
var c = b;

c.DoSomething();

The code you call against c will operate against the same object, they're all just references pointing to the same thing.

Julian Assange to appeal arrest warrant decision
Julian Assange intends to appeal to Sweden's highest court after his lawyers failed to get an arrest warrant revoked.
By Philip Dorling
Updated November 21, 2014 — 9.01am first published at 8.41am
Julian Assange will press a further legal appeal in Sweden's highest court after his lawyers failed to have an arrest warrant issued in 2010 revoked.
A Swedish appeals court on Thursday upheld a warrant the arrest of the WikiLeaks founder who is wanted for questioning by Swedish prosecutors .
Movement limited: Julian Assange has remained in Ecuador's London embassy since June 2012. Credit:AFP
The Svea appeals court upheld a decision by a lower court saying there was no reason to lift the arrest order because it could not be enforced owing to Ecuador's June 2012 decision to grant the Australian citizen asylum in its London embassy.
"There is no reason to set aside the detention solely because Julian Assange is in an embassy and the detention order cannot be enforced at present for that reason," the court said in a statement. "The court of appeal considers that Julian Assange's stay at the embassy shall not count in his favour since he can himself choose to bring his stay there to an end."
Mr Assange was granted asylum by Ecuador on the grounds that he is at risk of extradition to the United States to face possible conspiracy or other charges arising from the leaking of hundreds of thousands of secret US military and diplomatic documents by US soldier Chelsea Manning.
British police are on guard outside the embassy 24 hours a day, waiting to enforce a European arrest warrant so that Mr Assange can be extradited to Sweden.
Mr Assange's lawyers have argued that extradition to Sweden could facilitate his extradition to the US. The British and Swedish governments have declined to provide assurances that Mr Assange would not be extradited to the US.
Mr Assange has indicated his willingness to be interviewed at the Ecuadorean embassy but Swedish prosecutors have declined to take up the offer.
The appeals court was critical of the prosecutors for not working to end the impasse.
"[T]he investigation into the suspected crimes has come to a halt and considers that the failure of the prosecutors to examine alternative avenues is not in line with their obligation – in the interests of everyone concerned – to move the preliminary investigation forward," the court said.
Mr Assange's Swedish lawyer Per Samuelsson argued that the decision, though disappointing, gave grounds for hope of an eventual resolution.
"The pressure on the prosecutor to do something has increased," Mr Samuelsson told AAP. "The court of appeal, so to speak, warns the prosecutor 'If you don't go now we will cancel the custody decision the next time'. That's how you can interpret it."
Mr Assange has instructed his lawyers to appeal Thursday's ruling to Sweden's highest court.
"The Supreme Court might have the courage that the Court of Appeal lacked ... and stop this farce," Mr Samuelsson said.
Fairfax Media contacted Mr Assange but he declined to make any comment on the record.
Despite Mr Assange's confinement in Ecuador's embassy, WikiLeaks has continued to publish leaked documents including secret draft treaty texts from the controversial Trans-Pacific Partnership and Trade in Services Agreement negotiations, as well as a secret suppression order relating to references to south-east Asian politicians and others in a major criminal trial in Victoria's Supreme Court.

Saturn Put A Ring On It Relatively Recently, Study Says
A new study shows that Saturn's rings are only 10 million to 100 million years old, much younger than the planet itself.

Saturn is famous for its lovely rings, but a new study suggests the planet has spent most of its 4.5 billion years without them.
That's because the rings are likely only 10 million to 100 million years old, according to a in the journal that's based on findings from NASA's Cassini probe.

A man is on the run after dropping a backpack with narcotics and a loaded gun in a wooded area in the Trinity Gardens area Wednesday morning, police said.
Police stopped the man for driving a car with an expired registration sticker around 1:13 a.m. He was pulled over near Tidwell and Lavender in northeast Houston but jumped out of the car carrying a backpack, police said.
The driver fled through a wooded area, and a K-9 unit couldn't find him. Officers instead found a backpack with a loaded gun and narcotics, including ecstasy, Xanax, codeine and a large amount of pills, authorities said.
A woman stayed in the car while the man fled. No charges are expected to be filed against her.


June's featured car is the very different looking 1929 Roaster of Leonard Knight. Leonard keeps on coming up with the good looking & different. The low mounted body, the 33 Packard grill, the 24 Studebaker axle & the cross flow Chrysler 300 intake manifold of this car gives it a very sinister look, an appearance people are not used to seeing. With its deep black paint job & sharp stroked pin-striping this car just says, "Bad___". I asked Leonard, why this car? He replied "No reason, needed a car & I liked this one".
He bought the car from a Mopar guy in the Bakersfield area & has had it for about a year. He claims that with those dual Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetors he gets 60 miles on the 10 gallons of gas the tank holds. Leonard has taken the car to Redding, the O.C. Cruising for a Cure, La Verne Cool Cruise & other local shows. You know I never asked him how many pit stops he made going to Redding. I'm sure he drove it because he said he broke a front spring coming back.
Another good addition to the Cal-Rods list of fine cars Leonard.

HEADLINE Chinese carmaker FAW releases new Hongqi model
Chinese carmaker FAW releases new Hongqi model
FAW Group, China's oldest automaker, has released a new sedan model, the Hongqi H5, to target private buyers, the group announced Wednesday.
The new model costs between 149,000 and 190,000 yuan (about 23,650 to 30,100 U.S. dollars). It features voice-control smart connection systems and in-vehicle entertainment.
At Beijing International Automotive Exhibition, the company also unveiled the first Hongqi electric SUV.
Hongqi, meaning "red flag," is China's iconic sedan brand. The brand was established in 1958 and has been used as the vehicle for parades at national celebrations. It debut as a parade limousine at Tian'anmen Square during China's 10th National Day celebration in 1959.
However, its brand positioning, lack of new models and shops have led to lackluster sales of the sedans in the private auto market.
In recent years, the company has increasingly explored the private car market by expanding its product portfolio and sales networks. It has also targeted high-end buyers by making custom-made sedans.
FAW plans to open more than 100 Hongqi dealerships this year. The figure is expected to reach 170 by the end of 2020.
Hongqi has set sales targets of 100,000 cars in 2020, 300,000 in 2025 and 500,000 in 2035.
Established in 1953 in the northeastern Chinese city of Changchun, FAW was the first automaker in China. In addition to Hongqi, it has other brands, including Jiefang and Besturn. It also has joint ventures with carmakers such as Volkswagen and Toyota.

My wife Hilary and I have good friends who invited us on a vacation with them this past week. Jen and Sean are our friends, and the vacation spot was Maryland, so we jumped in our soccer-mom mini-vans, loaded up our kids (4 kids, our two and their two) and headed off on a great adventure!
The trip was really relaxing, fun, and all around amazing. The trip back however, proved to be a bit less of all of those! It was pouring down rain at one point, windy out the wazoo the next, and pretty much a toddler/pre-school whinefest in both vans the majority of the trip.
While on the way home, Jen's parents, who had joined us on the trip, said their favorite fast-food stop on the Pennsylvania Turnpike is Roy Rogers. Sean, appalled, blurted out: "Why!? It's so greasy!" To which they replied: "The other places are just as greasy." Sean admitted this, but said something to the effect of: "But Roy is a different type of greasy," and we left it at that.
So on our way home, I see a sign for Roy Rogers and decide to play a joke on our friends and ask via text message if we could please go to Roy Rogers. We banter back and forth and joke about this possibility when all of the sudden we make a turn to actually stop at Roy Rogers...Hilary and I try to call stating it was a joke to no avail. 'At least this stop has La Famiglia as well' we think out loud, if all else fails we can get some pizza.
We didn't want to go to Roy, but his options were starting to look pretty appealing since it was between that and an A-Plus mini-market. Sean and I give each other the nod, which was a Daddy's way of saying: "It's OK man, just this once".
With the "man" approval, we head over to get ourselves some greasy and nasty processed food from the underworld. It went from bad to worse.
The "happy meal" from Roy was an amazing paper bag and a few overly waxy crayons. The meal was two greasy chicken fingers and so-soggy-they-were-dripping french fries. I took one for the team and ate the french fries so I could spare my son. I just got a spicy chicken sandwich and grabbed a soda from the A-Plus. My son ordered a chocolate milk and if there was one thing they didn't skimp on, it was the extra-sugary-giant-chocolate milk they gave my son!
To top top it off, my daughter was a crying mess, untill I used her high-chair as a "ride" and started quickly swaying her back and forth. She LOVED that so much that my wrist got completely tired, but naturally her smile kept me going and doing it over and over again.
I hope your're wondering why I share all of this ridiculously detailed information. Well, it's simply: Daddy Life may not be the easiest life, but I love it! And you'll love it too.
As Daddy's we'll fail and we'll fall, we'll make our kids eat crappy foods and you'll say stupid things, like when I threatened at Roy Rogers: "You've got to at least drink your chocolate milk, otherwise no Lego Batman in the car!" This trip to Roy Rogers (like many trips before and many after) proves once again that we can go through rough times, but we can get back again.
If you're going through a rough season of parenthood...remember there is a "Back Again" coming soon!
Last Night at around 1:30 am, Roy even had a "back again" as my son MJ's body rejected every molecule of said greasy "goodness". One bath later and MJ is doing better! So, If Roy can do it...so can you!


hello all. have a 3 yr old portable bradley. puck plate not getting hot enough to start the puck smoking. flame is blue, everything else working but not enough heat. whats up? fish is ready to go!
It is best to refer to the actual model name or model number. Are you referring to the propane model, or the table top model? To save you some time, I'll include the information about the propane model If it is the propane model, check to see if the flame as large as it use to be. Although your flame is blue, you may have a smaller flame that is not properly heating the burner. The burner tube may be getting clog. That part requires regular maintenance.
Here are the steps to clean the necessary parts. The original information was posted by Bradley.
1- First remove the bisquette burner tube, this will expose the jet. You will need a 15/64 inch wrench or socket to unscrew the jet. Clean the bisquette burner tube, and jet by soaking them in either denatured or isopropyl alcohol, or electrical contact cleaner; neither of these solvents will leave residue behind (WD-40 will also work, but may leave some residue).
2- Once the solvent has loosened the tar and residue in the jet and tube, before it can dry blow it out the orifice with compressed air (soaking the jet with a solvent is the best way to clean it). Canned compressed air will work, if you are using an air compressor, make sure you have a good grip on the jet and be careful you don't blow it across the shop or across your lawn – they are not that easy to locate afterwards.
A- While you have the cleaner and tools out, you should also perform this same maintenance for the main burner tube and jet. You will need to remove the main burner tube to get to the other jet.
The two jets are different. The oven jet has a larger size orifice hole. So when performing routine maintenance make sure you keep them separated or mark them so they don't get switched. Better yet! Clean one at a time, and reassemble it prior to removing the other jet. Follow the same cleaning instructions.
B- Clean the surface of the heat plate with either rubbing or denatured or isopropyl alcohol or electrical contact cleaner.
C - Reassemble and you should be good to go.
If you have the table top model, please clarify. There are some members on this board who are familiar with that model.
I just remembered you did state the flame was blue so that would make it the propane model Where are you getting the covers, or did you do a modification to this model.
sorry. it is the portable propane type. flame is mostly blue but won't heat up the plate enough to start the pucks smoking. i will try what you suggested and clean out the burner tube. changed the regulator but didn't help. have run out of tents and doubt i can find anymore, so will likely try cutting a hole in side of a large aluminum pastry warmer i got from a bakery. that will allow me to smoke many more trays of fish or whatever and not have to worry about the tents. thanks again.
After writing the post, I did realize you had mentioned that it was a propane one. Cleaning the jet will most likely resolve your problem. If the jets are clogged the flame will still be blue, but smaller and put out less btu's. Great idea on how to replace the tents.

By Anwesha Tripathy On Jan 11, 2021 5,376
Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind follows the story of Joel and Clementine, who after growing apart decide to erase each other off of their memories. However, when they meet a second time, they begin to fall in love – again. There's a reason why it seems to be on every list of must-watch movies out there. The movie has so much to offer – grief, heartbreak, new love. With that, we bring you 20 quotes and dialogues from Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind that define life.

1. Because the timing is the easiest one to blame.
"We met at the wrong time. That's what I keep telling myself anyway. Maybe one day years from now, we'll meet in a coffee shop in a far away city somewhere and we could give it another shot."
2. All things come to an end, but sometimes they don't need to. And that's what we like best about Joel and Clem.
"Joel: I can't see anything that I don't like about you.
Clementine: But you will! But you will. You know, you will think of things. And I'll get bored with you and feel trapped because that's what happens with me!"
3. It's only when we're truly happy that we realise what we'd been missing out before.
"I could die right now, Clem. I'm just… happy. I've never felt that before. I'm just exactly where I want to be. "
4. Aren't we all?
"I'm always anxious thinking I'm not living my life to the fullest."
5. It's easier to pretend that you didn't know somebody when you clearly just wanted them to be somebody else this entire time.
"What a loss to spend that much time with someone, only to find out that she's a stranger."
6. Communication is key. But all communication isn't talking.
Clementine: You don't tell me things, Joel. I'm an open book. I tell you everything, every damn embarrassing thing.
Joel: Constantly talking isn't necessarily communicating.
7. The manic pixie dream girl is a person, too.
"Too many guys think I'm a concept, or I complete them, or I'm gonna make them alive. But I'm just a fucked-up girl who's lookin' for my own peace of mind; don't assign me yours."
8. All we wanted as a kid was to grow up. Somebody should have volunteered to tell us it was no fun.
"You look at a baby, and it's so pure, and so free, and so clean. And adults are like this mess of sadness and phobias. "
9.Sometimes all your memories begin from the appearance of that one person who seems to have changed everything.
Joel: I can't remember anything without you.
Clementine: That's sweet, but try.
10. It's always the little things.
Clementine: You know me, I'm impulsive.
Joel: That's what I love about you.
11. Sometimes it's okay to let go of control.
Clementine: This is it, Joel. It's going to be gone soon.
Joel: I know.
Clementine: What do we do?
Joel: Enjoy it.
12. Two lonely hearts always seem to find their way back to each other.
"You can erase someone from your mind. Getting them out of your heart is another story."
13. Some strangers just have a quality of familiarity to them.
Clementine: I'm Clementine. Can I… borrow a piece of your chicken?
Joel: And then you just took it… without waiting for an answer. It was so intimate; like we were already lovers.
14. Nobody wants to be that couple. A lot of them end up being that couple.
"Are we like those bored couples you feel sorry for in restaurants? Are we the dining dead? I can't stand the idea of us being a couple people think that about."
15. When a single Joel speaks for every freshly broken-up introvert.
"If only I could meet someone new. I guess my chances of that happening are somewhat diminished, seeing that I'm incapable of making eye contact with a woman I don't know."
16. Aren't we all a little nuts?
Clementine: What are you, NUTS?
Joel: It's been suggested.
17. It is strange how little adults understand children given that they were all one at some point.
"Sometimes I think people don't understand how lonely it is to be a kid, like you don't matter."
18.There's so much you do not see until somebody tells you to see it.
Clementine: Was it something I said?
Joel: Yeah… you said "so go." With such disdain, you know?
Clementine: Oh, I'm sorry.
Joel: It's okay.
19. You say the most real things when you're vulnerable.
"I wonder if the things that remind me of you, remind you of me."
20. Some people just get you by default – like they do not even have to try.
"I feel like sometimes I'm in my own little world and you're always next to me and I don't know how you do it but you understand me."
Just in case you haven't actually watched the movie, we hope these quotes and dialogues from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind have convinced you to give the brilliant movie a much deserving watch.

In a traditional engineering, "over the wall" approach is a reflection of sequential operations – marketing, design, manufacturing, testing and production. Each stage of development process is carried out separately. As you done with one stage, you can move the the next one.
A frequently made distinction is that between Engineering BOMs and Manufacturing BOMs. An EBOM is typically created in the engineering department and may originate from a Computer Aided Design or CAD software. It reflects the component structure from a functional perspective, and often also per technical discipline: there may be a mechanical design and an electrical design for example. To support collaborative engineering Product Life Cycle management (PLM) of Product Data Management (PDM) systems have been introduced. On the other hand we have the MBOM to support the manufacture of the product. The MBOM is typically maintained by logistics professionals and is used in an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system. The MBOM drives material planning and product costing. Often there is some work to be done to convert an EBOM into an MBOM.
The article provides a good summary of situations you typically can find in discreet manufacturing when managing part ordering, production and manufacturing logistic. Flattening of BOM, consumable and by-product items are good examples of things that usually not coming into EBOM.
At the same time, EBOM vs MBOM divide introduces one of the highest level of complexity in engineering and manufacturing systems. I captured below the picture from the article.
I think, the appearance of two clouds can highlight the problem even more. The data is flowing between two systems and creating inefficiency in change management. Two data structures EBOM and MBOM are managed by two separate systems. Things can fall between the cracks. To bring design or engineering change to manufacturing takes time and can introduce potential mistakes. Low visibility on manufacturing plan and components availability and cost leads to sub-optimal design and engineering decision.
EBOM vs MBOM divide was introduced by historical sequential engineering. It was good back 20 years ago, but it is completely inefficient in the new era of connected engineering and manufacturing processes. New business processes are demanding higher visibility in engineering, manufacturing and supply chain. The split between EBOM and BOM cannot stand against the demand to optimize engineering and manufacturing.
The connection between EBOM and MBOM is highly demanded. It will come in many ways. One of them is better integration between existing systems. Integrated change management system with search capabilities can be a solution deployed on top of existing PDM/PLM and ERP repositories to manage all transactions and changes.
Cloud technologies has a potential to connect information. Instead of replication of existing PDM/PLM and ERP repositories to the cloud, the new system organization can come into place. Cloud services is one of the key technologies that can stop the divide between EBOM and MBOM.
Your concluding remarks are correct, so instead of building integrations why not ocnsidering doing MBOM in PLM itself? this eliminates need for synchronization. This is th every reasons why PLMs have started managing MBOM….
Dhirendra, thanks for this comment! Yes, one of the options is to manage MBOM in PLM system.
Are you supposing that there is 1 EBOM matching 1 MBOM? Let's suppose you sell a product that is manufactured in different factories, or by different suppliers. From an EBOM, you then certainly define more than one MBOMs (one per factory for example). Continuing with the same idea, imagine the the design (EBOM) is Freezed, there is still multiple reason to change the MBOM (new means of production, price on the material, bankrupt supplyer, change in the legal rules).
You are right,Integration of PDM and ERP systems is challenging. Would a bigger system managing both be more efficient or just more complex?
Funny thing is, I don't know a single PLM vendor (I mean, serious ones) who hasn't been offering that for, like, a decade or 2.
MBOM are the result of engineering decisions. They naturally belong to PLM.
Gurney, Thanks for your comment! I think some ERP vendors might disagree in the part of management of procurement and orders. You comment is valid if applies to manufacturing planning solutions like Tecnomatix and Delmia.

Join us for a closer look into the creation of a fashion line with Angela Bacskocky and her line, Nest.
Jeff and I meet Angela Bacskocky outside of an old uniform factory in Scott's Addition, a neighborhood in Northside Richmond, Virginia. I see her dog Glory has been waiting on the other side of the glass door. We head up the staircase past scooters, bicycles, and what looks like a papier-mâché canoe. Her studio is spacious. She shares it with a few other artists. Angela shows me around and I see remnants of everyone's various projects. It is certainly a used space.
As we walk to her end of this community work area, there is a giant nest in the middle of the room. I investigate it as she starts to tell me about her work. There must be thousands of sticks and branches fastened together in layers. The base is brick and stone. There are pieces of metal scattered here and there. The space in the middle is large enough to fit a person. I want to crawl inside it. I pull myself away and look around. There are bundles of sticks that have yet to make the nest. There are tables full of bones, skulls, bird feathers, and scraps of fur pinned on the walls. I should mention that the walls are covered in aluminum foil. I wonder if this is a nod to Andy Warhol. She catches me looking and confirms that it is indeed a tip of hat to Warhol. Behind the nest there is a leather couch that I would imagine would be sitting in a law firm in the 1920's.
I walk to the hangers holding her garments. The construction shows the work of a practiced hand. Wool, leather, and silk make up the pieces that I look through. For something so well constructed, they also look comfortable There is something prestigious about leather and fur that can't be mimicked with substitutes. The colors are warm to me. Not in a summer sort of way but in the way you seek warmth in the dead of winter.
I follow her into a room filled with sunlight. The walls have clippings from magazines, inspirational pictures, accessory pieces, feathered headdresses, and scraps of fabric layered over each other and pinned over sketches. There are a racks of various furs and sheered wool. A mannequin is wearing a jacket she is finishing. There are a few sewing machines and some small tables where custom jewelry is laying. She shows me how the jewelry goes over the ears of her models. It looks like an industrial version of some indigenous people's headwear from the Bronze Age. We take seats at her work bench.
She talks to me about her work in fashion. Her resume is impressive. She studied at VCU, lived and studied at Central St. Martins in London, worked for a London tailor, interned at Alexander McQueen and Felder Felder. This is not her first line. I have seen some of her Hungarian collection and it is pretty extraordinary. She goes on to the idea for Nest.
It started in a winter of depression. She found herself in a dark place. Instead of trying to pull herself out of it, she decided to follow the rabbit hole to the bottom. She relives all those feelings and memories of that depression and I nod with a true knowing. I have been there. The cold of winter settles in my bones and seems to freeze happiness. So the Nest for her is that place we build in our minds. To hide, to seek shelter, to isolate ourselves from the world. We as animals forage and surround ourselves with the pieces of our life. The sturdy wood and metal keep us inside.
I turn around to look at the Nest. I see it as the symbol it is now. There is no kitsch to it, it is not a novelty item. It is a structure of isolation. She goes on to explain that the pieces all center around this idea of the Nest. The constructing and deconstructing of it, the materials she has used are things that you would find in nature. She tells me about her collaborators. There are sculptors, an intern that is working on the jewelry, she has a friend making shoes for her models, people help her gather materials and execute her ideas. It has turned into something else. It has become a community project. It has become a project of love and joy to work on with people who share her vision. It is a project that seems to change every time I look at it.
To some, Angela's work is a fashion line. To others, it is a multi media art installation. To her it seems it is catharsis. She has turned an intimate time of despair into a wonderful work of wearable and watchable art. If art is meant to affect you on some deeper level, then her work is absolutely art. I am haunted by some of the ideas, but I am moved by the process. I find Angela Bacskocky fascinating and lovely. She can explain this fully realized idea and punctuate it with a self-deprecating comment and a smile that cools off the moment.
Angela appeared on an episode of "Project Runway" this summer and showed at New York Fashion Market Week in September.


Demi Moore arrived at the 'Blind' New York premiere on Monday (June 26) awash with colour and optimism.
Opting for an uplifting Gucci Fall 2017 suit, the actress made the wise move to pair her busy suit with a hint of black bra and little else.
The print itself, which is reminiscent of gardens in bloom, is eccentric and fun if a little dated. Not dissimilar to Demi's equally colourful 'Rough Night' premiere look from a few weeks back.
Did the richness of the colours and the experimental style win you over?
