Our House Opens Program for Adults With Autism in Bridgewater
The Hope Autism Solutions day program expands with its fifth location at the PeopleCare Center for Nonprofits.
Bridgewater, NJ — On June 28th, 2018, Our House, Inc., whose mission is to provide "healthy, stimulating, and inclusive environments for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities," held a ribbon cutting for its fifth Hope Autism Solutions program site at the PeopleCare Center for Nonprofits in Bridgewater, NJ.
Michele DelCorsano, President and CEO of Our House, Inc. said that the latest site of Hope Autism Solutions will allow the agency to help even more adults with autism who need day services. Moreover, the location will also be home to a fourth Volunteer Action Program site.
"Imagine the joy of a parent to know that their child, who was faced with such obstacles, is now participating in meaningful day activities – whether it be working or volunteering – and interacting with their communities in a positive way. This is powerful and why we do what we do," she said.
Volunteer Action Program (VAP) operates out of Union and Somerset counties, supporting 48 individuals with developmental disabilities. VAP participants volunteer their time at organizations such as SAGE (Meals on Wheels), Eva's Village, Wagner Farms, Catholic Charities, Furniture Assist, and other nonprofit entities. Besides giving back to the community, participants attend group outings and other recreational and social activities such as apple picking, bowling, seeing movies, etc.
Hope Autism Solutions (HAS) currently has 140 participants throughout five sites, with growth expected to continue; another site is planned to open in Woodbridge in 2019. A daily life enhancement program, HAS is dedicated to providing adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder an environment that supports personal growth, learning, empowerment and self-esteem. The program provides participants the tools to live productive, meaningful lives and integration into the community. HAS is a program without walls which means that the goal is to keep participants active in the community as much as possible throughout the day.
Our House offers programs and housing to individuals across New Jersey in towns including: Livingston, Maplewood, West Orange, Verona, Summit Union, Westfield, New Providence, Millington, Basking Ridge, Berkeley Heights, Bound Brook and Bridgewater.

Q: Human evolution mutants secret school story Looking for short story probably golden age about a father that enrolls his child in a school for psychic genius mutants.  He is a latent mutant so he is able to see the secret writing the school uses.  The school is part of an effort to fast track evolution in the human race because of fears of an alien invasion that is also evolving quickly.

A: This may be "The Children's Room" by Raymond F. Jones, although some of the details slightly diverge. I searched for it here. You can read it online here, or it's been collected in a number of anthologies. The basic premise of the story is that Bill Starbrook, an engineer, happens upon a book that his son, Walt, got from "The Children's Room" at the library. Walt comes down ill, and asks Bill to return the book. Bill finds out that there is no "Children's Room" at the their library according to the front desk, but he does find it on his own.

"Good morning, Miss Perkins. I wonder if you'd see that this gets to the Children's Room
for me? It's due today and Walt's sick."
Miss Perkins smiled a good morning, then frowned. "The Children's Room? We have no
children's department."

....

Then, as he was almost at the door, he glanced to the left and swore softly. There, over a
doorway, was the designation: Children's Room.

After further perusal of the books, he happens upon the truth in one of them:

And then the answer came swiftly and like a sudden burst of flame before his eyes. He
opened the second of the two volumes which he had not been able to comprehend before. Its
words were plain now and addressed directly to the reader.
"You can easily comprehend, now, that you are a mutant."
He stared at the words, trying to shed their meaning from his mind, but they stayed, and he
knew the truth of them.
"You have come far enough to understand what that means," the book went on. "You are
aware of the extraterrestrial radiations which are continually producing mutations, and you
understand some of the processes by which they are formed. It is not difficult, therefore, for
you to understand that you are one of the many thousands of the 'different' men, the mutants
who throng the Earth, scarcely knowing that they differ from their fellow in any matter."

....

"In a time far distant from your own, the human race is in competition with another major
race in the galaxy who are out-evolving mankind. In order to maintain not only the superiority
which the human race has gained, but its very existence, it is necessary that the natural
process of evolution be speeded. Wasteful and ghastly experiments have proved the
impossibility of doing this by artificial means. Only through natural processes which cannot
be duplicated at will can evolution proceed in an effective manner. But nature, in her waste of
precious mutations throughout the ages, is herself responsible for man's dire position in this
future day.

"OUR purpose, then, is to accelerate the evolutionary rate of the human race by salvaging the
beneficient mutations which have been wasted through the ages.
"You who have come this far with us have a duty now, a duty to join us, to bring your
mutated characteristics before the race for the benefit of all."

And, ultimately, his is an extremely unusual case, both that his mutation is present as an adult, and in that he carries no other mutation that is beneficial to humankind:

"Your case is most unusual. The total of your mutations consists only of the sensory
characteristics by which you were able to read our mutation language, and find our way into
the Children's Room. I don't recall a single instance previously where this mutation was not
linked with some other. It is somewhat interesting from a purely biological viewpoint,
particularly in view of the fact you are the father of Walt. Practically, however, your mutation
has no value whatever."

The children are ultimately brought forward into the future, and Walt and his wife receive a replacement Walt, a "homolog", indistinguishable from the original.

The Psychology of Personal Constructs, developed by George A. Kelly (1905-1967), stressed the importance of the meanings that individuals attach to persons and events in the world surrounding them. Consequently it has been branded as an ›individualistic‹ theory neglecting the social nature of the Human Condition. However, in a Personal Construct Psychology view, the notion of The Other includes members of a wider community, of cultural groups, and even members of other nations. In this book, scholars from several countries write about issues of cross-cultural relevance, such as international travel, the importance of language, the unification and dissolution of states, migration to a new country, and what all this means for the definition, maintenance and development of the individual's identity.
Some of the papers have been published before but are out of print or difficult to access. Included is Kelly's famous paper on ›Europe's Matrix of Decision‹ that has not been available for a number of years.


Note: The fact that a person parks in violation of any law, policy, or regulation and does not receive a citation does not mean that the law, policy or regulation is no longer in effect.
Using emergency flashers does not allow drivers to illegally park in their vehicles particularly in handicapped spaces, fire lanes, or in delivery zones unless authorized by the Campus Police Department. Parking on campus is a privilege, not a right. The privilege may be revoked for continued or gross violations of parking regulations.
The College reserves the right to ticket and/or immobilize or tow, at the owner's expense, vehicles that are parked on campus in violation of any established law, policy or regulation.
Any vehicle ticketed for a Clark State violation that displays a permit will have the fine charged to the permit holder. If the fines assessed are not paid within ten days, a hold will be placed on the permit holder's account, which will prevent the permit holder (if a student) from registering for the following academic term. For Clark State citations issued to faculty and staff that are not paid within ten days, a payroll deduction will be assessed on the first pay of the next calendar quarter. Fines can be paid in the Cashier's Office on the second floor of Rhodes Hall.
Fines assessed for local/state law violations are payable to the City of Springfield and may require a court appearance. Failure to pay local/state law violations will result in a warrant issued by the Springfield Police Department.
Only Clark State violations can be appealed. Those wishing to appeal local/state law violations must appear before the Springfield Municipal Court Magistrate or Judge.
Clark State appeals are processed by completing an online Citation Appeal form. This form and your citation must be received by the Office of the Vice President for Business Affairs within ten days of the date the citation was issued. The Appeal Form must be filled out completely. The payment of the citation under appeal is suspended without penalty during the appeal process. If the appeal is denied, failure to pay the issued citation within ten days from the date of notice will result in a hold on your account (if a student) or a payroll deduction (if an employee).
An appeal should be based on the fact that the violation was issued in error or contrary to established regulations. A lost permit, forgetfulness, parking only for a short period, failure to display parking permit, and/or not seeing the signs are unacceptable grounds of appeal.
Parked within 10 feet of a fire hydrant or within 30 feet of a stop sign.

Q: Correct procedure for dealing with adf.ly links (shortening service that pays poster) What's the recommended approach to dealing with posts that include links shortened using AdFly. Should it the link be edited away or replaced, flagged, downvoted, or simply ignored?
Unless I've completely missed the point with AdFly, the fact that the poster gets paid when someone clicked the link makes it spam in my book.
If someone posts an AdFly link as the only content in an answer, I'll quite happily downvote and/or flag it as spam, but what if it's part of a legit question/answer like some of these?

*

*Create a Menu in a non-existent module in Everhest

*C++: Templates and the singleton pattern

A: Treat it like any other URL shortening: replace it by the original URL. It doesn't matter why the URL was obfuscated, the post must contain the intended target URL.
If the sole point of the post was to share an URL that pays the poster, then the post is spam. Otherwise ignore the revenue aspect.
If you notice that a user is using URL shortening (paying or not) on a regular basis, point them to the consensus that URL shortening should not be used (except when there's a very good reason, but you can leave this part out: "never obfuscate URLs" is a very good first approximation).

Lumos (dawniej: Children's High Level Group) – organizacja charytatywna założona przez pisarkę J.K. Rowling i eurodeputowaną Emmę Nicholson w 2005 roku.

Lumos jest międzynarodową organizacją pozarządową, zajmującą się poprawą życia będących pod opieką władz publicznych dzieci, mieszkających w instytucjonalnych formach opieki. Na świecie osiem milionów dzieci wychowuje się poza rodziną. Ponad 90 procent z nich nie stanowią sieroty. Są to dzieci, które oddzielono od rodziny z powodu biedy, niepełnosprawności, rzadziej dlatego, że były zaniedbywane przez rodziców, czy występowały z nimi problemy wychowawcze.

Lumos uważa, że ta instytucjonalizacja jest formą przemocy, bo takie doświadczenie pozostawia na całe życie ślady w psychice. Organizacja pracuje na siedmiu różnych poziomach – od indywidualnego dziecka do rządzących – by poprawić system opieki socjalnej i edukacji, zmieniać postawy, pomagać dzieciom przenieść się z zakładów opieki do rodzin zastępczych. Wszystko po to, by do 2030 roku żadne dziecko nie podlegało instytucjonalizacji.

Lumos pracuje nad projektami w Bułgarii, Czechach, Mołdawii, Czarnogórze i na Ukrainie.

Dochody ze sprzedaży książki Baśnie barda Beedle'a napisanej przez J.K. Rowling są przekazywane organizacji.

A great passion for the sea. This is the spirit that underlies Italcanna's marketing philosophy. A passion inherited from the founder of the company, Carlo D'Olivo, and started when he was a boy and worked in his uncle's factory where, in the early post-war years, over 120 employees manufactured hexagon split cane and bamboo fishing rods. Today, Italcanna is known throughout the world for its excellent products which hold several records for catching big fish on all seas around the globe. All this was unimaginable back in the mid-60s, when the name Italcanna made its appearance on the first rod blanks which Carlo D'Olivo manufactured personally. And many years have passed since that far away 1966, when the new company, still run by the D'Olivo family, was set up.
The production facility is based in Segromigno, in the province of Lucca, a few kilometres from the Tyrrhenian Sea. The whole company's production, which offers a choice of over one thousand products, is designed to mainly cater for sea fishing needs.
For many years, the company focused primarily on the production of fibreglass rods, which were first exported to France and later to the United States and Australia, and within a few years received important acknowledgements such as the Quality Award in 1971 and the Gold Hercules International Award in 1981.
In the 80s, after extensive research on the application of composite fibres in the sport fishing sector, Italcanna became one of the first European fishing tackle companies to manufacture hollow composite blanks.
Using woven carbon also for other applications, the company developed new manufacturing and assembly technologies to obtain ultimate performance from composite materials.
The results achieved were excellent and the new materials were introduced on the entire production expanding the company's range with innovative, cutting-edge products.
These research activities led to the development of the first micro-fibre tubular trolling rods, which immediately won a world title at the 1981 Madeira World Fishing Championships.
In addition, as a result of these studies, the solid fibreglass rods, which were becoming outdated, were superseded by the first telescopic surf rods, such as the TeleSurf and Marenostrum (trademark patent dated 11/11/1986).
Despite these successes, the company did not rest on its laurels but continued to introduce innovations, such as the TMH patent (22/10/1987) and the production of a range of specially-designed, high-performance long casting rods.
The technical experience acquired with the limited production of this special rods was later applied to the series manufacturing of surfcasting rods with outstanding results.
The Evoluzione surf rod alone, for example, revolutionised the surfcasting style both in Italy and Europe by introducing a solid carbon tip which halved the rod tip diameter while doubling the sensitivity.
Another innovation introduced by Italcanna was the first surf rod without running guides on the top section which was specially built for an Italian customer in 1998. In more recent years, Italcanna patented the CarboTitanium (13/12/2002), a material designed to give surf rods extra strength and lightness.
Due to their quality and reliability, Italcanna rods are often used in fishing centres for heavy-duty applications, such as catching fish over one thousand pounds at great depths or fishing for sharks from the shore.
Over the years, these achievements have been crowned by several records established by faithful customers who have been relaying on Italcanna products for over three decades.
Every Italcanna rod is designed to give you some of the most unforgettable angling experiences, whether you fish the ocean, the Mediterranean Sea, or just try to target those little fish swimming near the shore. But Italcanna also means "Gladiator", the popular range of trolling reels. Like the rods, these reels are built using the finest materials and the most advanced technology, making them the perfect match for any trolling, drifting or stand-up rod.
Finally, Italcanna means the exclusive distribution of the renowned US brands Ande, Eagle Claw and Scotty. Known worldwide for its outstanding performance, the Ande monofilament fishing line meets IGFA strict standards and world record requirements. Eagle Claw and Scotty are leaders respectively in the production of quality hooks and boat downriggers.
Last but not least, we should not forget Italcanna's ongoing commitment to promoting and spreading sport fishing in Italy and to protecting the environment by using eco-friendly products and health-safe varnishes and paints.
The sea and the fishing… an inseparable match for Italcanna, which continues its adventure always looking at new and ever more challenging goals to be achieved.
Italcanna guarantees that all rods featured in this catalogue are completely made in Italy within its production facility in Lucca, including the carbon fibre from which each single blank is constructed.
'Made in Italy' means not only using the best of materials, but also providing service and spare parts, including for older products. To this end, we keep all moulds and dies that are necessary to manufacture a particular item. Italian-made also means that the product you are using has been developed by expert anglers specifically for our sea conditions and our fishing techniques and is not necessarily suitable for water conditions in other countries.
As we have a direct relationship with the end users of our products, we make it our duty to always use the best materials. Unlike other manufacturers who supply their products to global companies and, consequently, are merely interested to offer average-quality products at lower costs without taking responsibility for the raw materials they use, we will answer for the quality of our materials at any time.
A clear example of this is illustrated in the chart alongside showing the various types of HR carbon fibres. As can be seen, all types of HR fibres shown therein have a similar modulus of elasticity, but different tensile strength values. This means that a rod made from A-class carbon fibre (our choice) will have the same weight and stiffness as a rod built with C-class carbon fibre (less expensive). But, while the two products appear to be virtually identical, when subjected to a high tensile load, the C fibre will break long before the A fibre does.
Italcanna relies on a highly-experienced skilled staff to manufacture each and every product to the highest quality standards. Our machines are continuously adjusted and tuned-up to achieve the best processing results.
Nevertheless, much of the work, such as the Greek key pattern on the trolling rods, are still being made strictly by hand.
Likewise, guides are hand wrapped and secured to the rod via a unique system which makes them integral with the blank, keeping the wrapping from loosening and coming apart over time.
A pull at one of the guides will reveal how tightly gripped they are.
As regards the rod blank, we are proud to point out that each of our blanks is purposely designed and constructed to match a particular type of rod with a specific casting weight for optimum performance, while several non-manufacturing companies will often cut the rod tip to vary the casting weight in order to reduce stocks.
Building a fishing rod requires an extensive knowledge not only of composite fibres but also of metal working, gluing and painting techniques. Italcanna also produces its own patented self-lubricating guides. Made from an ultra-strong anti-scratch, corrosion-resistant alloy, these guides feature an AISI 316 stainless steel roller for smooth line travel (see detail of guide assembly in the photo).
Each new product we bring to the market is the result of extensive design activity and severe testing that may require several months.
This is why each of our products is developed with innovation and durability in mind.
Therefore, we have no interest in creating ephemeral or defective products that would have to be discontinued the next season.
This explains why best-selling products developed some years ago are still on sale in fishing tackle shops around the world.
This proves that Italcanna products are truly innovative and bound to last long, and acquire thereby a commercial exchange value that remains unchanged over time.


Here is the fourth single from Kacey Musgraves.
Kacey Musgraves has kind of come out of nowhere this last year. Her album, Same Trailer Different Park, has been a huge success on the back of three really big singles. Now it's time for the fourth single and it sounds like another hit. Give it a listen and see what you think.
I think this song is about a breakup. It sounds like the girl had to break things off because they really weren't going very well on her side of things. A few people get in these relationships where it's skewed quite a bit toward the give and really not any take at all. That's not how relationships seem to work the best and you have to get out while you can.
But unfortunately when you end things the other person realizes how good they had it and they come crying back. That's when this song kicks in and tells that person to keep their thoughts to themselves. Because no matter how much you want to tell that person to stay away there is still something in you that was attracted to them and still is attracted to them.
Another great song from Kacey here. She brings such a unique perspective to her songs and lyrics and it's been a breath of fresh air for country music. It's like the album Did I Shave My Legs For This? back in 1996 or so. That was a record that changed things and this one is doing the same thing. Just hit after hit.


Finally - the to-do list and the weather have cooperated and I can show you my patio redo! So what we started with was this - the world's smallest patio. And I wanted to turn it into a book nook, since a single chair was almost the only thing that that would fit out there.
And here is what I have done to it! Check it out!
So let's break down the changes I made. First, I built these fantastic lattice planters. I was inspired by this project at HGTV Rate my Space. I am going to do a run down this week on how to build them.
I hung my PB Knockoff Mason Jar Lanterns on them! They are sooo cute!
I also added two Shepard's Hooks with hanging baskets and some other planters. I am loving all the flowers out here!
Speaking of flowers - I am in love with these! They are called Mandevilla or Brazilian Jasmine. They have the most gorgeous blooms!
I am in love with them (I know I already said it once - but I mean it)! So much so that I am actually going to try to winter them inside once it starts getting cold!
They are sooo beautiful! They are supposed to bloom all summer long and can climb a trellis to over 15 feet high! I love em! I plan on posting so more pics later this summer so I can show you their progress!
And of course - every book nook needs a place to sit and read. Here is mine. My chair is a rocker - which I love. I also have an umbrella for the stand under that table that I can use to shade my fair-skinned self if it is too sunny! And of course, a comfy pillow!
Ahhh... now if you don't mind, I have a glass of iced tea and a book to get in to! Anyone got any good summer reads for me this summer?
**UPDATE - the "how-to" build these beautiful boxes is up! Check it out!
And because this was my FAVORITE project of the month, I am also linking it up to the Best DIY Projects of May Party with Traci @ Beneath My Heart. Head over and check out the rest of blogland's favorite projects!

Review: Celestron C90 Spotting Scope
The Celestron C90 is a portable Maksutov-Cassegrain Telescope marketed by Celestron primarily as a spotting scope. We'll be looking at the "new" version, rather than the classic version which shares very little in common other than aperture and general optical layout. The C90 has been lauded by many in the amateur astronomy community as "something for nothing," and as a great budget option. A 3.5" Maksutov is a fairly small instrument and somewhat limited in light grasp and resolution, but the infamous premium Questar 3.5 has essentially the same optical specifications. In principle, a 90mm telescope should magnify up to 180x. How does the C90 stack up?
6/10: Recommended with reservations
Compact, portable telescope with a long focal length.
Capable as a daytime spotting scope or for astronomy.
Useful for lunar observing.
Surprisingly good for deep sky observing.
Relatively poor resolving power.
The overall value compared to Newtonians and Refractors.
Poor quality control.
Accessories intended for daytime use.
There are several other 90mm Maksutov Cassegrains on the market. The other ones by Synta likely have the exact same optics. The Orion StarMax 90 comes on a usable but barebones tabletop mount. The Orion Apex 90 is another version designed as a daytime spotting scope and is highly comparable to the C90, but a little lighter weight. The SkyWatcher SkyMax 90 is another offering with no mount, but with astronomical accessories. Orion and SkyWatcher also offer some larger Maksutovs, a 4" and 5" variety which will have better light grasp and resolution.
Celestron also sells the NexStar 90SLT, a 90mm Maksutov on a computerized Go-To mount. There's also the NexStar 4SE, a 4" Maksutov on a better computerized Go-To mount.
The Meade ETX90 is another 90mm Maksutov, but with optics which are more reliably superb, comparable even to the premium and absurdly priced Questar 3.5 in all ways except for mechanical design and ergonomics.
But a telescope of another optical design entirely might be a better fit for most observers. A Newtonian reflector telescope may not be as compact, but for the same price as a C90 and an adequate mount, you can get a 6" Dobsonian, which will show more detail on planets and the moon and many more deep-sky-objects. There are some more compact reflectors as well, such as the Zhumell Z114, Zhumell Z130, SkyWatcher Heritage 130P/AWB OneSky 130, and SkyWatcher Heritage 150P. These are all tabletop Dobsonians with more light grasp and resolution than the C90, albeit with their shorter focal lengths they require more expensive accessories to reach high magnifications.
If you're looking for a small, compact telescope for deep-sky-object viewing, say for example if you're going camping at a dark site, I recommend the Short-Tube 80.
This was a tough review to write. With the reputation of the C90, I was expecting to like it a lot more than I do. The telescope is not something for nothing. The fact that I had to send mine back to get one with decent optics implies that the quality control could be a lot better. It is fairly expensive at the moment, It requires a fairly substantial tripod or astronomical mount to use at all, it requires new accessories to get full use out of it. It's not a bad telescope, and it turns out there's a lot that it can show you, and its views of the Moon remain genuinely spectacular. If you're looking primarily for a spotting scope for hunting, birding, or other nature observing, but which is also capable of doing astronomy, this might be a good choice over refractors (which have chromatic aberration) or reflectors (which can't be used with an erect image). But it's not a great value for your dollar. For the price you'd pay for the telescope and a decent mount, there are better options.

The C90's Optics
The Celestron C90 is a Gregory-Maksutov-Cassegrain Telescope. In a Cassegrain, a short-focus concave primary mirror focuses light toward a convex secondary mirror, which folds the light backward through the rear of the telescope, as well as vastly increasing the overall focal length. A true Cassegrain uses a parabolic primary and a hyperbolic secondary, but these are expensive figures to polish into a mirror. In SCTs and Maks, a corrector lens element is added at the front to correct for spherical aberration in the spherical primary mirror. SCTs use a thin, higher order curve, while Maksutovs use a thick, spherical meniscus lens. In a Gregory-Maksutov, the secondary mirror is a metallized spot on the corrector lens. Gregory Maks thus have entirely spherical surfaces, making them much cheaper to manufacture, but they can almost totally correct for spherical aberration.
The C90 has an aperture of 90mm (3.5") and a focal length of 1250mm (f/14). This focal length is just two inches longer than a typical ground-standing Dobsonian reflector, so images generally feel a lot like they do in a Dob, just dimmer. (A 6" Dobsonian has roughly three times the light grasp).
I have had two Celestron C90s. The first one had to be sent back to Celestron due to poor optics. I received a replacement with somewhat better optics. The first C90's stars had two bright rings around them, a sign of fairly severe higher order spherical aberration. The result was that, although the Moon and daytime objects looked pretty good, observing the planets at high powers was very disappointing. I had compared the C90 with my Orion Short-Tube 80 side-by-side and was shocked to find that, despite having a smaller aperture and being a short-focus achromat with some false color, the ST80's planetary images looked brighter, more contrasted, and higher resolution. The cheaper, smaller refractor wiped the floor with this first C90.
My second C90 has much better optics. The higher-order spherical aberration is still present, but much subtler. Planetary images are much better, but they are still fairly blurry on very small scales. I was unable to get more resolving power out of the telescope at 178x (just shy of the typical maximum power for a 90mm telescope) than at 125x, and though the view at 125x showed slightly more detail, it was noticeably slightly fuzzy. The 100x view (with a 12.5mm Plossl) was more pleasant, but pretty small. Contrast isn't very good on Jupiter's cloud bands or the Cassini division in Saturn's rings. The view is acceptable, given the limitations of the aperture, but I still felt like it wasn't giving me all that a 90mm telescope should have.
My speculation is that due to the optical design of a Maksutov involving higher-order spherical aberration, the same ¼ wavelength error that would normally be acceptable in a telescope is actually worse for the very tiny scales where you care about such things as fine planetary details. The same amount of error that would be acceptable in a Newtonian or a Refractor shows up differently in the diffraction images of a Maksutov, specifically in the form of throwing up two bright rings outside of the blurred point-source circle of a star. So a perfect Maksutov can be as good as a perfect Newtonian, but an acceptable Newtonian is better than an acceptable Maksutov.
The C90's Construction
The Celestron C90 is a sturdy telescope, probably more so than the other branded Synta 90mm Maks. It's generally a little more rugged. It weighs 4.62 lbs, compared to the 3.7 lbs of the Orion Apex 90. There are two heavy metal pieces on the front and back. The front holds the maksutov-plate and the back holds the primary mirror cell. The C90 is focused like a typical amateur SCT, with a focuser knob on the back which ends up pushing the primary mirror forwards and backwards. This actually slightly adjusts the overall focal length of the telescope. This setup is much more versatile than a focuser drawtube, which moves in and out, because it allows you to focus on nearby targets as close as 15 feet away. However, it does take a long time and many turns of the knob to adjust focus from infinity to nearby. Image shift is a potential issue in any telescope that focuses by moving the mirror spacing. My first C90 had no image shift. The second has some, but it's not terrible–objects still generally stay in the field of view, but it does make it harder to precisely get the focus you want.
The telescope is painted black. The main tube is glossy black with gold flecks, similar to the "Black Diamond" livery used by Skywatcher telescopes, and the Celestron C5 SCT spotting scope. It looks nice!
There are six primary mirror collimation screws on the back piece, accessible with an allen key. Both of my C90s arrived in good collimation, so I had no need to mess with them.
The back of the telescope has a built-in T-adapter for cameras, with a removable 1.25" visual back screwed on. It is not possible to use 2" eyepieces with the C90.
On the top of the tube is a Synta-style finder shoe. On the bottom is a short Vixen-style dovetail for use in astronomy mounts, with three divots for a mounting screw to dig into, as well as a couple ¼ 20 mounting holes for photographic tripods.
C90 Accessories
The basic C90 is packaged as a portable spotting scope and includes some nice accessories. The telescope comes with a nice nylon backpack. It's a little small even with the arm straps fully extended, but then, I'm pretty big. I can still fit the backpack on. The C90 fits inside it with room to spare for the other accessories.
The telescope comes with a 45-degree erecting prism diagonal, a 32mm Plossl eyepiece yielding 39x magnification, and a 5×25 finderscope.
32mm Plossl: This is the only eyepiece you get. It's a nice one. It has a super long eye relief, so it's easy to see the full field of view without pressing your eye to the eyepiece. A 32mm Plossl gives the widest possible field of view for a 1.25" focuser, so they've given you the best shot at finding what you're looking for right out of the box. 39x is enough to see cloud bands on Jupiter and the rings of Saturn, and the moons of both, so even without an additional eyepiece, there's still some interesting planetary astronomy to do.
45-degree Erecting Prism Diagonal: A diagonal is a necessity in a telescope where the eyepiece is in the back, as it provides a more comfortable viewing angle than if you had to look straight through. A 45-degree prism works fine if you're observing objects near the horizon (typical daytime use), but it is nearly worthless when observing at night! When pointed above 45 degrees, you have to look up into the eyepiece, which puts a strain on your neck and may not even be possible, depending upon how you've mounted the telescope. The diagonal is crying out for replacement with a 90-degree mirror diagonal. The prism also introduces a small amount of false color fringing and reduces image quality, but for daytime use it's almost unnoticeable and for night time use it's still pretty subtle.
5×25 Finderscope: One of my friends, who had owned a C90 before, complained about how terrible the finder was. I actually thought it was pretty good. It's not the same as the 5×20 (really more like a 5×10) plastic toy finder sold with many cheap beginner telescopes, it's a functional small telescope with a decently wide field of view, a sharp, realistic image, and a usable focus knob. It is clearly intended for daytime use, where the dim images aren't a real problem, but there are a few deep-sky-objects and pointer stars I could see in the
My first Celestron C90 came from Optics Planet, and included a couple extras: a big tripod with its own carry bag, and a 12.5mm Plossl. When I purchased mine, the Optics Planet bundle was the cheapest way to get a C90. However, it was in this bundle that I got the C90 with the flawed optics. I have no idea if this could be correlated.
12.5mm Plossl: This eyepiece is pretty nice, and it provides 100x magnification. It's sharp and gives a decent field of view. Eye relief is a little narrow though. For planetary observation, 100x is much more suitable than 39x.
Celestron Photographic & Video Tripod: This is a terrible tripod. It is barely adequate for a 50mm or 70mm short-tube refractor at low or medium power. Or maybe a point-and-shoot camera. Its motions are stiff, it often feels like I'm twisting the flimsy plastic it's made of, and it wobbles so much it's absurd. For terrestrial use, this would be frustrating enough, but in astronomy, where the tripod must be aimed higher than normal, it's almost impossible to use. I tried using it for astronomy with the C90 on one occasion. I could not even manage to get the moon entirely in the field of view at 39x. The tripod is a joke. When it comes to mounting the C90, you're on your own.
Mounting the Celestron C90
The C90 is sold in a package with just the Optical Tube Assembly and a few accessories. It is intended to be mounted with a separate photographic tripod. But it also uses a Vixen-style dovetail, which allows it to be mounted on many astronomical telescope mounts.
The C90 may be a lightweight telescope, but you do have to think carefully about how to mount it. The mount must not be flimsy–with such a long focal length boxing you into higher magnifications, the telescope is very sensitive to wobbles and vibrations. A mount with slow motion controls would come very much in handy.
The C90 could be mounted on a computerized mount, but this would be overkill–anything worth looking at in a C90 is something you can find yourself.
A photographic tripod can be used, but it must be sturdy, capable of supporting a payload of perhaps 10 lbs. or more. The C90 is only 4.62 lbs, but it requires an especially sturdy tripod and mount head to support it without wobbling. In addition, the tripod must be capable of being balanced in the altitude axis. A typical photo tripod puts the altitude axis well below the center of mass, so that when you aim high, the telescope becomes very unbalanced. This is a nightmare when you're trying to find objects. My Bogen 3030 three-way pan & tilt head can be manipulated so the altitude axis points straight up and the intermediate axis becomes the new altitude axis. This makes the telescope balanced as it points high up.
Dedicated astronomy mounts also exist for both altitude-azimuthal and equatorial types of motion. Both mount types can typically be balanced for smooth and consistent motions in both directions. Altaz mounts are usually side-mounted. This will put the finderscope on the bottom of the scope, unfortunately, but it is still somewhat usable. I have made use of a Vixen Porta II Altaz mount and an Explore Scientific EXOS Nano EQ3 mount. Both have been acceptably smooth and sturdy, but they still have some amount of vibration and wobbly visible through the sensitive C90's images.
I have mostly used the Nano EQ3 mount with the C90. The slow motion controls and the ability to manually track come in handy, and the finderscope is more usable. It's also a pretty good deal–probably the only affordable EQ mount that is really worth using with a telescope is as sensitive to vibration as the C90.
Note though that a mount for the C90 can be a pretty expensive thing to spend money on, especially the dedicated astronomy mount options. Thus, I put the C90 in the category of being mostly useful if you already have a good photo tripod.
What you can see with a Celestron C90
The Moon: If there's one thing the Celestron C90 can do very well, it is the Moon. Some of my best (though still very amateurish) photos of the moon have come from the C90. Its long focal ratio means that cheap eyepieces do not generate many distortions, so as the Moon drifts through the field of view, it does not distort too much.
Here are a few photos I have taken of the Moon on various nights. These were videos taken with a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge and a 25mm Plossl eyepiece, aligned in PIPP, stacked in AutoStakkert!, and edited in RegiStax and Photoshop.
The Moon looks great in the C90, and at a range of powers from 39x up to 125x, it looks very nice. (I could not stack videos taken at higher powers due to the limitations of eyepiece projection with smartphone cameras–a DSLR or planetary imager might have been a better choice–but a tracking mount would also have been needed.)
The Moon is rewarding in almost any telescope, so this shouldn't be a surprise. The other thing you use a long-focus telescope for is the planets. So how do they stack up?
Jupiter: Jupiter is a pale, white dot with incredibly subtle banding at 39x. Its four large moons are visible as stars. At higher powers (I used a 12.5mm, a 10mm, and a 7mm eyepiece in testing), Jupiter's cloud bands become easier to see, as well as the bright orangeish region in the equatorial zone that has been around for the last one or two years. The orange color is much harder to discern in the C90 than in larger scopes, but it's there. The darker polar caps are also visible. On one night observing, I could see the shadow transit of one of the satellites, though I neglected to check which one, as a very subtle dark dot in the equatorial zone. On the south equatorial belt, I could see a darkish spot that was either the Great Red Spot, or the transiting moon that was casting the shadow. On other occasions, I could see the Great Red Spot as well. Over the past couple months, there have been some large Brown Barges in the northern hemisphere that have been accompanying the Great Red Spot. They were easily seen in my 6" and 10" Dobsonians, and I could confirm their existence in the C90 too, albeit as more of a pair of dark notches in the North Equatorial Belt than as their own separate storm patterns.
Saturn: Saturn's rings can be seen at 39x. At higher powers, its Cassini division glimpsed. Cloud banding on Saturn's surface can also be glimpsed. Seeing Saturn's rings is a really cool thing to do any chance you get, and the second C90, the one with the good optics, did not disappoint. Titan, Saturn's largest moon, can also be seen as a starlike point.
Venus: In almost any telescope, all that can be seen of Venus is a featureless white ball. But that ball does go through phases, and the C90 will show those phases to you with no problem.
Mars: I didn't get a chance to see Mars at opposition with the C90. By the time I looked at Mars with it, it was a distant, featureless red ball. However, at opposition, expect to glimpse the white ice cap and hints of dark features, though it'll be tough.
Mercury, Uranus, and Neptune are all featureless points of light, though Uranus may be noticeably blueish. Mercury might show its phase, but catching it at a time when the phase is easy to see is a problem.
Deep Sky Objects. I really did not expect to like the Celestron C90 as a deep-sky-telescope. Most of my testing was done during the summer, when smoke from forest fires on the U.S. west coast was billowing into the east coast and ruining night sky transparency, so it was a while until I could give it a fair test. The C90 has a distinct disadvantage for finding DSOs—the small field of view makes it difficult to spot dim objects in the vast night sky, and the dim finderscope won't show many of the bright star patterns that can be relied upon to find DSOs using a sky atlas. Secondary obstruction also reduces contrast somewhat. However, I found that the C90 acquitted itself just fine as a Deep Sky telescope under clear, dark autumn skies. I actually had a lot of fun with it!
The images were somewhat dim, but I was pretty reliably able to find many of the objects–showpiece or not–that I looked for. Certainly, in a dark sky, any of the Messier objects should be attainable. But when finding DSOs with a long-focus telescope, patience is absolutely key. In wide, long-focus telescopes like the Short-Tube 80, finding DSOs can often be a matter of pointing in roughly the right direction and spotting the object while sweeping at low power. You can scan the skies for new objects by just sweeping around. You can't sweep in a C90. You have to search for a specific object and commit yourself to finding it using star patterns.
Here is a sketch of several objects I observed one evening with the C90. I limited myself to observing with the 32mm and 12.5mm Plossl eyepieces my C90 came with, and using the stock finderscope. However, I was using a 90-degree diagonal. There were a few objects I observed that night that I didn't sketch. For example, Messier 38 was surprisingly dim, and difficult to hold onto. It was hard to navigate that part of the sky–normally I can zip back and forth between M38, M36, and M37, but the orientation was confusing.
The last object I observed that night was the Orion Nebula, M42. I also took the Short Tube 80 out and used them both at 100x. I could tell no difference in the fainter features I could see with the ST80 versus the C90. For a deep sky, they are just about evenly matched. (Despite the C90's extra half-inch of aperture!)
The Pleiades fit pretty easily into the field of view of a typical 1200mm focal length Dobsonian with a 32mm Plossl. It does not fit in the fov of the C90 with the same eyepiece. That extra two inches of focal length shouldn't make a difference. (I wonder if the working focal length of the C90 is actually somewhat longer than 1250mm when you have an eyepiece in focus, possibly in the 1300mm-1600mm range?) If this is true, it might even go some way to explaining how fuzzy the image looks with a 7mm eyepiece—7mm is the max power for an f/14 telescope, but it would be overpowered if the focal ratio was actually more like f/16 or f/18.

«Кино́ в дета́лях» — еженедельная программа о кино, выходящая на СТС с 31 октября 2004 года.

Описание
Первые выпуски программы вела киновед Елена Слатина, которая ранее вела похожую программу «Магия кино» на телеканале «Культура». Через некоторое время, в августе 2005 года её сменил Фёдор Бондарчук. Слатина же стала редактором программы.

Каждую неделю ведущий вместе с авторитетными, профессиональными и знаменитыми гостями — актёрами, режиссёрами и продюсерами обсуждает выходящие в прокат свежие зарубежные и российские релизы; проекты, которые находятся в производстве; актуальные кинотенденции и направления в развитии кинематографа; говорят об эстетике, творчестве, кинобизнесе и частной жизни. Студийные разговоры подкреплены сюжетами о кинопремьерах и съёмках новых фильмов, собственными репортажами с крупнейших российских и международных кинофестивалей и эксклюзивными интервью, аналитическими материалами о современных кинотрендах, рассказами о зарубежных и российских кинозвёздах.

Собеседниками Бондарчука в разных выпусках становились Оливер Стоун, Даррен Аронофски, Майкл Бэй, Кристоф Вальц, Дэниел Крейг, Тиль Швайгер. Отдельные выпуски программы Бондарчук вёл прямо со съёмочной площадки своих новых фильмов.

I installed 7 (6801 of course) on my computer (yay!), and went to Windows Update to see if there were any Ultimate Extras... but I was shocked, bedazzled even! There was an update for "Windows 7 Pre-Beta" (KB958644), I thought that MS never released updates for beta products?
maybe it is just a easier way for them to upgrade through the betas without reinstalling the whole thing. did you notice anything different afterwords?
They did release some for the Vista betas (the widely-available ones at least), they seem to patch the critical security issues that are patched in the released versions while the beta is the latest public version. This is probably that patch they released recently for all other supported versions of Windows that they seemed keen for people to install quickly as they released it outside of the usual monthly schedule.
Well, this build must be quite old then?
It runs great... I never expected it to run like this. AND there are updates, I was as surprised as you.
I have all the drivers installed, some of them failed the first go 'round but they installed and work fine now. Except the audio drivers, I had to roll those back fromt he WU installed version to the ones that came with 6801.
EVERY peice of software I've installed works. What a pleasant surprise.
It's much faster than Vista as well, and I'm glad they've stripped some of the applications that I never used out of it.
I can't remember if Vista did, but this remembers my monitor settings, now when I come home and plug my monitor into my laptop it just sets it all back up the way it was before without me having to press a single button.
It seems like Windows has become less of a chore.
Anyone screw around with the libraries yet?

I was thinking the same thing, and that's something I don't think I've ever been able to say about any Microsoft pre-release software.
It seems so much more responsive. Surprisingly faster.
So it's a positive yes then? Good, I'm glad!
Critical security patch that was released last week. I remember reading that Win 7 pre-beta would be affected as well.
I installed 7 (6801 of course) on my computer (yay!), and went to Windows Update to see if there were any Ultimate Extras... but I was shocked, bedazzled even!
Windows 7 Ultimate is probably just a brand name and nothing else... Just like how you can change it so it says Windows 7 Starter yet everything else is still intact.
It wasn't unheard of for the Longhorn Beta's to get patches (not very common, but not unheard of).
They're almost always security fixes, though.
Is there a way to take these downloaded updates from the temp folder and upload them to the server?
You should be able to get the .msu URL from the WU log. Then you can download it from the web.
they do release updates !!
WWhen will they release beta version for public???
Apparently, they will release Beta 1 to the public, which is scheduled for Mid-December.
this will makes no sense. MS will release a Beta at connect and to Technet and MSDN subsribers but not to the public.
That would be OK...if it goes out to Technet, for sure it will spread around.
If I used any security software I would let you know.
I just shut off the anti-virus notifications.
I am using the free Avast! 4.8 for Vista on this W7 build, haven't had any problems w/ 4.8, beware using Avast! 4.6 broke my install though.
McAfee Suite doesn't work either. Although I didn't try any workarounds.
Actually, they have said that there will be 1 beta, which will be publicly available.
I am using Symantec AntiVirus v. 10.2.0.298 x64, and it is working great.

Meaning of India in English:
Pronunciation /ˈɪndɪə/
Translate India into Spanish
1A country in southern Asia occupying the greater part of the Indian subcontinent; population 1,311,000,000 (estimated 2015); official languages, Hindi and English (fourteen other languages are recognized as official in certain regions; of these, Bengali, Gujarati, Marathi, Tamil, Telugu, and Urdu have most first-language speakers); capital, New Delhi.

''Golf India Foxtrot pass your message.''
India was the source of four of the world's chief religions—Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism— and was home to an early civilization around the the Indus Valley from c.2600 BC. Much of India was united under a Muslim sultanate based around Delhi from the 12th century until incorporated in the Mogul empire in the 16th century. Colonial intervention began in the late 17th century, particularly by the British; in 1765 the East India Company acquired the right to administer Bengal. In 1858, after the Indian Mutiny, the Crown took over the Company's authority, and in 1876 Queen Victoria was proclaimed Empress of India. Independence was won in 1947, at which time India was partitioned, Pakistan being created from mainly Muslim territories in the north-east (now Bangladesh) and the north-west. A member of the Commonwealth, India is the second most populous country in the world
Via Latin from Greek India, from Indos, the name of the River Indus, from Persian Hind, from Sanskrit sindhu 'river', specifically 'the Indus', also 'the region around the Indus' (compare with Sindhi). Both the Greeks and the Persians extended the name to include all the country east of the Indus. Compare with Hindi and Hindu.

Q: Is it possible to store data from post request into a variable? I made a simple POST request to fetch data from a search bar into backend. I am able to console.log it - but I need to be able to store that information (as a variable/const ideally) and IF it fits the criteria, I need to be able to add it into a function in the backend and return data based on that function. Is this possible with a PUT request or should I use query.params ?
app.post("/search", (req, res) => {
    const result = req.body;
    res.send({
        search: result,
    });
});

*

*Pull data from search bar into backend

*Run a function using the searched keyword

*Return new information based around the keyword

for reference - here's the function that I would like to enter the searched keyword into for every instance of searchBarResultHere ( and there's 7 of them )
async function **searchBarResultHere**() {

    const html = await request.get(
        "https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/**searchBarResultHere**/"
        );

    const $ = await cheerio.load(html);

    const Price = $('[class="Fw(b) Fz(36px) Mb(-4px) D(ib)"]').text();
    const Symbol = $('[class="D(ib) Fz(18px)"]').text();
    const PercentChange = $('fin-streamer[class="Fw(500) Pstart(8px) Fz(24px)"][data-field="regularMarketChangePercent"]').find('span').text();

    await connectToMongoDB();
     // fetch stock/crypto data

    const listingModel = new **searchBarResultHere**({
        price: Price,
        symbol: Symbol,
        percentChange: PercentChange,
    });

    // save into MongoDB Modal
    await listingModel.save();

    // UPDATE stock price if it changed
    await Stock.findOneAndUpdate(
        {
            symbol: **searchBarResultHere**,
        },
        {
        price: Price,
        symbol: **searchBarResultHere**,
        percentChange: PercentChange,
        },
        {
            upsert: true
        }
        );

        console.log(Price)
    setTimeout(**searchBarResultHere**, 1000000); // 60 seconds == 1minute // not needed with node-cron

}

**searchBarResultHere**();

in a nutshell this is a program that goes on yahoo.finance and periodically records some chosen text fields from the yahoo.finance website.. then stores & displays it back into HTML with Stock/Crypto Name, Price and 24 hour change
I want to let people type in a stock name (or symbol), and make the program fetch all the data for them so they can see it without having to go on yahoo finance :)
But I'm struggling to figure out how to make the connection between seaching for a stock name and sending the search result to the backend function to fetch all data from yahoo.finance.


Metal Belt Clip Fits All TDI items (Except LDK) And Comes With fasteners For Attachment. (Shown Mounted To Original TDI Knife.)....See Details For More Info.
Unusual Specialty Hunting Knives Have Been a CRKT Staple For Many years, And This One Is No Exception. Conceived By Hawaiian knifemaker And Big Game Hunter Ken Onion, This Knife Is The Fusion Of Two Ancient tools: The ulu Palm Knife And Scraper Of Alaskan And Canadian tribes, Plus The Cleaver. Both tools Go Back Many thousands Of years, And The earliest flaked Stone ulus Found Date Back More Than 50,000 years.
As a Laid-Back Hawaiian, Ken Has Named The Product For The shaka Aloha Spirit handsign, Thus it's The Onion Shakaulu™.
Ken Developed This Tool Because There Is a Real Need For It. After Taking a Large Game Animal It Is a Versatile Tool For The Heavy-Duty tasks, With a Gut Hook, a Fully Curved Razor-Sharp Skinning Edge, And a Handle That Allows It To Be Used as a Cleaver To Separate Pelvic bones, Or Even To Quarter a Large Carcass In The Field.
The Blade Of The Shakaulu Is exceptionally Thick And Heavy, The Hallmark Of a Traditional Cleaver. It Has a High Convex Grind For Maximum Strength. The Blade Is Made Of 65Mn Carbon Steel For Maximum Toughness, And Is Black Powder Coated To Resist Corrosion.
The Handle Is Twin-Fused™— First Injection Molded With a Hard Black Polypropylene Handle Form, Which Is followed By softer Dark Green TPE Plastic inserts. The Handle Is Ergonomic, Giving a Secure Grip In Cold Weather And While Wearing Gloves.
For Skinning, The Shakaulu Can Be gripped High Like An ulu, With The Thumb On The Thumb Hole. For cleaving, It Can Be gripped By The Handle.
Because The Shakaulu Is a Heavy Tool, Ken Designed a Special Heavy-Duty Molded Polypropylene Sheath That incorporates a Locking Pin, On a Flexible retaining Strap, That Goes Through The Tool's Thumb Hole. This Sheath Allows Secure inverted Carry, And Is Convertible Left Or Right. A Removable Belt Clip Is Included, And The Sheath Has Multiple slots And grommets To Allow Lashing To a Backpack Or Pack Animal.
The Shakaulu Should Not Be Confused With a Brush Cutter Or Hatchet. It Is a Much More Sophisticated Skinning Tool, And The Razor-Sharp Edge Is Not Intended For Such Use.

She ties her poem to a birch tree, hoping that it doesn't count as littering if it makes the world more beautiful. But when she returns, a new poem is waiting for her. Could the tree really be writing back? Sylvia decides to test her theory, and so begins a heartwarming poetic correspondence...as well as an unexpected new friendship.

Psalm 123:1-2 I lift up my eyes to you, to you whose throne is in heaven. As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maid look to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to The Lord our God, till he shows us mercy.
Every single day, just about every moment, we are bombarded by joy-stealers trying to wrap their little tentacles around our hearts and pull the joy right out of us. They might take the form of a calendar filled to the brim, a broken-down washing machine and piled up dishes, unmet expectations, the completely mundane and ordinary and the incredibly tragic and heart-breaking. We can be skipping along whistling a tune when out of nowhere along comes a joy-stealer to trip us up.
I have had my share of joy-stealers this week, at moments letting them win, and other times playing tug-of-war with them. No, you may not have my joy, thank you! In the midst of it all, I made the journey with the Israelites up to Jerusalem, up through the Psalms of Ascent (Psalm 120-134), and I was reminded of this important truth. My position is to look up- because God is God, and I am not. Who am I to wave around my placard demanding my rights, my way, like some demonstrator in a big rally, declaring all of this is utterly unfair? The creator of heaven and earth, the God who puts things in motion and sets up kings and governments, who brings the rain and changes the seasons, this God redeemed me from the pit and gave me life. Who am I to demand anything of Him, to give Him complaints instead of praise? He shows mercy, He gives His joy in the midst of the everyday trials and endurance for the hardship. I need to keep looking up, keep my eyes on Him and remember my position. In this I can rejoice!
In spite of the joy-stealers, God's grace was still evident in the gifts that He has given this week.
Psalm 125:1 Those who trust in The Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be shaken but endures forever.

It's so true that acknowledging and giving thanks for the gifts that are all around is the way to joy. Thanks so much for sharing!!
Sarah! So delighted to see you linking with VA. I love this and treasure your insight.
