A rotary tool for cutting, drilling, grinding, or polishing metallic or non-metallic materials is made of a compact material, which consists of an inorganic fiber reinforced plastic containing 50 to 81 volume % of inorganic long fibers selected from the following group: alumina fibers, boron fibers, silicon carbide fibers, and silicon nitride fibers, the remaining portion of the compact material consisting of a thermosetting resin matrix.
This invention relates to a tool for cutting, drilling, grinding, or polishing metallic or non-metallic materials. More specifically, this invention relates to a rotary tool which is suitable for cutting, drilling, grinding, or polishing metals such as iron, aluminum, and copper, or alloys of such metals, or non-metallic materials such as stone, monocrystalline or polycrystalline silicons, and ceramics.
Plastics which are reinforced with inorganic long fibers are well known as "FRP". For example, in "Kogyo Zairyo (Industrial Material)", Vol. 37, No. 1, (published in 1989 by Nikkan Kogyo Shinbunsha) there is disclosed a FRP consisting of an alumina fiber reinforced epoxy resin. Such FRPs have been utilized in the field of structural members.
Examples of well-known conventional rotary tools include the carborundum grindstone and the alumina grindstone. The carborundum grindstone, for example, consists of a porous material that is manufactured by binding carborundum abrasive grains together by means of a binder. Because of its porous structure, however, it cannot contain a sufficient amount of abrasive grains, resulting in a rather poor working efficiency. In addition, its pores will become clogged with chips, so that it is subject to early deterioration in cutting quality.
Japanese Patent Examined Publication No. 54-4800 and Japanese Patent Unexamined Publication No. 59-97845 disclose a buffing material and a grindstone, which consist of porous materials made of glass fibers. However, glass fibers exhibit a low degree of hardness, so that their field of application is limited. Moreover, they are all porous, which means they are rather poor in working efficiency and subject to clogging.
Japanese Patent Application No. 63-47374 discloses a lapping material containing inorganic fibers. This lapping material, however, cannot be applied to a rotary tool; that is for a tool which is to be held at a certain angle with respect to the surface to be lapped.
It is accordingly an object of this invention to provide a novel rotary tool which can perform cutting, drilling, grinding, and polishing operations with a higher efficiency than conventional grindstones and which is free from clogging during its operation. That is, with a rotary tool in accordance with this invention, an excellent working efficiency can be secured by use of a plastic material which contains a large amount of a hard substance corresponding to the abrasive grains of a grindstone for cutting workpieces and, at the same time, since no clogging occurs, an excellent cutting quality can be maintained for a long time.
In accordance with this invention, there is provided a rotary tool made of a compact (not porous) material which contains 50 to 81 volume % of inorganic long fibers selected from the following group: alumina fibers, boron fibers, silicon carbide fibers, and silicon nitride fibers, the remaining portion of the compact material consisting of a thermosetting resin matrix.
FIG. 4 shows an example of the rotary tool in accordance with still another embodiment of this invention.
This invention employs inorganic long fibers with a high degree of hardness instead of conventional abrasive grains constituting grindstones. Alumina fibers, boron fibers, silicon carbide fibers, and silicon nitride fibers provide an excellent cutting quality since they have a sufficiently high degree of hardness.
The inorganic long fibers employed in this invention may have a small diameter, which is in the range, for example, of 3 μm to 30 μm.
The rotary tool of this invention is made of a material containing 50 to 81 volume % of such inorganic long fibers, which are bound compact together by means of a binder so that the material would have no pores.
As stated above, conventional grindstones are porous and have a lot of pores, their abrasive grain content being 50 volume % or less. In contrast, the material or the rotary tool in accordance with this invention contains 50 volume % or more of inorganic long fibers such as Al2 O3 -type fibers, which constitute the cutting elements. Accordingly, the cutting edge for cutting workpieces exhibits a high density, so that a higher working efficiency can be attained than with a conventional grindstone, along with less wear of the tool being involved. Since it has a compact structure without any pores, the tool material of this invention does not become clogged with chips, whereas the pores of conventional grindstones are liable to be filled with chips, which would cause damage to the surface of the workpiece. With the rotary tool of this invention, the thermosetting resin constituting the matrix is worn somewhat earlier than the inorganic long fibers, so that the rotary tool exhibits a brush-like working surface, with inorganic long fibers slightly protruding from the matrix surface. These inorganic fibers protruding in a brush-like manner serve as the cutting elements, providing a high cutting efficiency. The chips remaining on the workpiece are removed by the brush-like inorganic long fibers of the working surface as the rotary tool rotates.
The inventors have found out that the rotary tool of this invention, which is made of a material containing 50 volume % of inorganic long fibers, can be used without particularly taking into consideration the angle of application with respect to the workpiece since it can provide an excellent cutting quality in all directions. In accordance with this invention, the protruding inorganic long fibers constitute the cutting edge, which means, by employing inorganic long fibers with a small diameter, the cut end surface, polished surface, and the like of the workpiece can be made smooth and fine. Generally, the greater the inorganic long fiber amount is, the better. An inorganic long fiber content of more than 81 volume %, however, will exceed the upper limit of the density in which the fibers can be packed, resulting in a defective impregnation of the thermosetting resin. The thermosetting resin to be employed in this invention may be: an epoxy resin, an unsaturated polyester resin, a vinyl ester resin, a bismaleimide resin, a phenol resin, and the like. Of these resins, an epoxy resin would be most suitable for manufacturing a rotary tool since it can firmly adhere to the inorganic long fibers without generating any pores.
The inorganic fiber reinforced plastic of this invention can be manufactured as follows: first, a thermosetting resin such as an epoxy resin is placed, for example, on a film in a certain thickness. Then, 50 to 81 volume % of inorganic fibers that are cut in an appropriate length are evenly dispersed on it, with the fibers being oriented in a variety of ways. Afterwords, thermosetting resin is placed on these fibers, thus sandwiching the inorganic long fibers between layers of thermosetting resin. By pressing the whole thing from both above and below with rollers or the like, the layer of inorganic long fibers is impregnated with the thermosetting resin without generating any pores. The sheet of material thus obtained is left to stand at a certain temperature for several days so as to put it in a B-stage (a half-cured condition which is suitable for pressurizing and curing through heating). Afterwards, a required number of sheets of the material thus obtained are superimposed on each other and are heated to be cured under pressure, thereby obtaining a compact plate having no pores.
A compact plate whose inorganic long fibers are oriented in the same direction and which includes no pores, can be obtained by, for example, superimposing unidirectional prepregs on each other in such a manner that the fibers are oriented in the same direction and then curing the plate thus obtained through pressurizing in an autoclave.
A compact poreless plate in which half of the inorganic long fibers are oriented in one direction and in which the remaining inorganic long fibers are oriented in the direction perpendicular this one direction, can be obtained by superimposing cloths which are woven with warps and wefts of inorganic long fibers, binding them together by means of a thermosetting resin and molding them into a compact plate under sufficient pressure.
Further, a compact plate having no pores can also be obtained in the following manner: first, prepregs are prepared by impregnating inorganic-fiber cloths with a thermosetting resin. Then, a large number of such prepregs thus obtained are superimposed on each other and are sufficiently pressed between heating plates. Apart from this, a poreless compact plate in which inorganic long fibers cross each other at right angles or are mutually inclined, can be obtained in the following manner: first, layers of inorganic long fibers are prepared which are impregnated with a thermosetting resin and in which the inorganic long fibers are oriented in the same direction, as described above. Then, these layers are put in the B-stage to obtain UD prepregs (unidirectional prepregs). A large number of such UD prepregs are superimposed on each other, with their fibers being oriented in the same direction. Afterwards, another layer is formed thereon, in which the fibers are oriented at right angles or inclined with respect to the fibers of the layers obtained by superimposing UD prepregs as described above. Then, a large number of UD prepregs are superimposed thereon in such a manner that the fibers of each layer are at right angles or inclined with respect to the adjacent layer. The layers thus superimposed together are sufficiently pressed to become a compact plate.
In accordance with still another method, a compact plate in which inorganic fibers are arranged in parallel or cross each other, can be obtained in the following manner: inorganic fibers impregnated with a thermosetting resin are wound around a cylinder in parallel with its periphery or diagonal thereto. The fiber coil thus obtained is cut open in the axial direction to obtain plate-like portions, which are cured separately through heating in an autoclave, or, instead, a large number of such plate-like portions may be laminated together. Alternatively, they may be pressed using a heating die.
The inorganic fiber reinforced plastic manufactured by one of these methods is processed using, for example, a diamond grindstone, thereby easily obtaining a rotary tool in accordance with this invention which has a desired configuration.
In accordance with this invention, a disc-like rotary tool is provided, which is adapted to rotate around its axis. Examples of such a rotary tool are shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, of which FIG. 1A shows a rotary tool for cutting and FIG. 1B shows a rotary tool for grinding or polishing.
In accordance with this invention, a rotary tool is provided, which is composed of a rotating tip 5 and a rotation shaft 3 for rotating this rotating tip 5, the rotation shaft 3 and the rotating tip 5 being formed integrally of an inorganic fiber reinforced plastic.
FIG. 2B shows an example of such a rotary tool. In a conventional carborundum grindstone, as shown in FIG. 2A, a carborundum rotating tip 5 is fixed to a steel rotation shaft 3 by means, for example, of an adhesive agent.
The operation of thus putting these parts together is bothersome. In addition, the joint section is not strong enough in many cases. In contrast, the rotating tip 5 of the rotary tool of this invention, which is shown in FIG. 2B, is formed integrally with the associated rotation shaft 3. That is, the rotary tool of this invention is in the form of an integral body made of an inorganic fiber reinforced plastic. As shown in FIG. 2B, the inorganic fibers 4 of the rotary tool of this invention may be arranged in the axial direction of the rotation shaft 3. Such arrangement is advantageous in that the high-strength rotation shaft 3 is formed integrally with the rotating tip 5, with no joint section existing between them.
In accordance with this invention, the rotating tip of a rotary tool of the above-described type has a disc-like or a cylindrical configuration. As stated above, a rotary tool in accordance with this invention is made of an inorganic fiber reinforced plastic which contains a large amount of inorganic fibers 4. Accordingly, the outer peripheral surface of the rotating tip 5 shown in FIG. 2B also exhibits a fine cutting edge with high density suitable for cutting workpieces, so that, even though the inorganic fibers 4 are arranged, for example, in parallel with the outer peripheral surface of the cylinder, it is not necessary to particularly take into consideration the angle of application with respect to the workpiece, thus providing an excellent cutting quality in all directions.
In accordance with this invention, the rotating tip of a rotary tool may have a cylindrical, a conical, a pyramid-like, or a truncated-cone-like configuration. FIGS. 3A to 3F show examples of such rotating tips, of which FIGS. 3A and 3B show conical rotating tips; FIG. 3C shows a pyramid-like rotating tip; FIG. 3D shows a truncated-cone-like rotating tip; FIG. 3F shows a cylindrical rotary tool in which the rotating tip and the rotation shaft have the same diameter; and FIG. 3E shows a rotary tool in which the diameter of the rotating tip is different from that of the rotation shaft. The "conical" configuration in this invention includes ones with a rounded tip (FIG. 3B) as well as those with a pointed tip (FIG. 3A). Likewise, the "pyramid-like" and the "truncated-cone-like" configurations naturally include ones which are not exactly to be called as such in the geometrical sense but are only approximately so. Rotary tools having such configurations are suitable for drilling workpieces, or grinding or polishing recesses in workpieces.
In accordance with this invention, the rotating tip is formed as a column or a cylinder with a brush-like configuration. FIG. 4 shows an example of such a rotating tip. The rotating tip 5 shown has elements 6 which correspond to the bristles of a brush. Each of these elements 6 is also made of an inorganic fiber reinformed plastic which contains 50 to 81 volume % of inorganic fibers and exhibits a high-density fine cutting edge for cutting workpieces. When applied to a workpiece, its elements 6 are bent in conformity with the surface of the workpiece while the tool rotates, which means this rotary tool is suitable for grinding surfaces having complicated configurations or for grinding workpieces with a smooth finish.
A test was performed as follows: a workpiece, which consisted of a steel plate (S45C), was ground by moving rotary tools back and forth twenty times over a distance of 100 mm.
Each rotary tool had a disc-like configuration and had an outer diameter of 150 mm and a thickness of 1.0 mm. The grinding performed was of a dry type; each rotary tool was pressed against the workpiece with the same force and was moved back and forth at the same speed while rotating it at a speed of 3,000 r.p.m.
Rotary tool No. 1 is in accordance with this invention and is made of a compact material containing 60 volume % of alumina long fibers.
Rotary tool No. 2 is only different from rotary tool No. 1 in that it is made of a material which contains alumina long fibers having a diameter of approximately 10 μm.
Rotary tool No. 3 is a comparison example, which is made of a material containing 20 volume % of alumina long fibers with a diameter of 15 μm.
Rotary tool No. 4 is a comparison example, which is made of a material containing 20 volume % of alumina long fibers with a diameter of 10 μm.
Rotary tool No. 5 is a comparison example, which is made of a material containing approximately 76 volume % of glass long fibers.
Table 1 shows the results of the grinding test. Rotary tool No. 1 cut the workpiece approximately 1.4 mm deep while being moved back and forth 20 times. No clogging occurred, and the rotary tool was in a condition in which it could continue the operation with the same efficiency. Rotary tool No. 2 cut the workpiece 1.3 mm, without involving any clogging. Rotary tools 3 and 4 were inferior to Rotary tools 1 and 2 in terms of cutting depth, but involved little clogging due to their compact structure.
Rotary tool 5 proved very poor in terms of cutting depth because of its material containing glass fibers.
As is apparent from the above description, the rotary tool of this invention contains a large amount of hard inorganic long fibers, so that it has a fine cutting edge containing cutting elements in a high density. Accordingly, it is superior to conventional grindstones in terms of working efficiency.
Furthermore, the inorganic long fibers of the rotary tool of this invention are firmly retained by thermosetting resin, so that the tool can enjoy a long service life than grindstones, whose abrasive grains are subject to detachment.
Since the material of the rotary tool according to this invention is made compact and has no pores, it involves no clogging, always providing an excellent cutting quality.
By employing inorganic fibers with a small diameter, the rotary tool of this invention can have a fine cutting edge with high density, so that it is suitable for cutting workpieces with a fine and smooth section or obtaining a smooth polished surface.
In addition, since the rotating tip is formed integrally with the rotation shaft, the rotary tool of this invention has no joint section, so that it is easy to manufacture and provides a reliable degree of strength.

Review Summary: A glistening waterfront with an ocean of potential under it.
iamamiwhoami has done very well at marketing herself on a relatively small budget, using YouTube and blogs to carefully build up anticipation and exposure for this album by releasing a new video every fortnight, effectively releasing the entire album brick by brick while also providing a short film (included here on a DVD bonus disc) for fans to piece together as well, giving them another reason to keep coming back. Unfortunately, this talking point is interesting enough to be in danger of overshadowing the music itself.
With that in mind, I think it's important to say - for the benefit of anybody else that feels a little intimidated by that release schedule as much as anything - that I came into kin completely blind, having not heard any of it before, nor seen any of the videos, or even read any reviews. It's important because iamamiwhoami has, whether consciously and deliberately or otherwise, tried to subvert the entire experience of listening to an album by encouraging her fans to take in each song for two weeks before moving on to the next. If that doesn't seem odd, imagine watching a 70 minute film over the course of four weeks. Sure, the comparison is a little flawed because, by and large, albums aren't a narrative in the traditional sense, but they still have a mood, a contour, and a flow, and you simply can't get a feel for that when you're taking breathers so often. For those who've followed her YouTube exploits for their duration, their experience has had as much in common with the average album experience as watching the original TV run of The Sopranos has in common with watching Goodfellas.
In itself, this is fine. The financial state of the music industry is such that anything that challenges the established methods of distribution and marketing effectively is to be congratulated - but it's just a challenge, not a revolution, and kin is still going to be judged on all the old points.
Sadly, and predictably, it's on those points where kin lets itself down a little. Taken in one sitting, it's a little on the disjointed side, and the sequencing doesn't make the most of its strengths, making some of the repetition seem like a lack of ideas rather than thematic consistency - and "sever", as an opening track, seems determined to give you the impression that iamamiwhoami sounds exactly like Cerys Matthews of Catatonia. She doesn't - thank God - but first impressions are hard to shift, so a it takes a few tracks for that enormously unflattering comparison to go away.
Otherwise, though, kin is a great success. Surprisingly for an album that was released in the way this was, it's much more about its sound than its songs, and as such feels hyper-modern; it slots in right alongside Visions by Grimes and feels like part of a general trend toward shimmering, dreamy synth textures that's spread far enough to make cloud rap a legitimate genre. Bjork has been mentioned by many people as a similar artist, as have Portishead, and there is truth there (as long as we're clear about it being Third-era Portishead and Vespertine-era Bjork), but the artist it reminded me most often is Royksopp - kin takes the most un-dance moments of Melody A.M. and stretches them into songs, while piling on more layers to make the whole thing more immersive. Those extra layers draw from all sorts of sources - within the first two tracks alone you can hear elements swiped from Kraftwerk's Die Mensch-Maschine and Nobuo Uematsu's soundtrack for Final Fantasy VII, and The Knife are a crucial influence throughout.
It's a shame that the sequencing and the overall flow isn't quite right, because in all other regards, this is a beautiful album to stick on and just drift away to - this is music of impressive texture and depth. The delirious reaction to this record in some quarters suggests that iamamiwhoami has already made the leap from 'artist to watch' to a forerunner, but kin also speaks of mounds of untapped potential to me; I'm genuinely excited to see what she'll come up with next. This is a highlight of 2012, but if she stays on this path, the next one could well be a highlight of the decade.
And all this from an album produced and co-written by a man that has toured as the piano player in Travis. Travis. What a weird world we live in.
honestly just kinda makes me wanna listen to bjork instead. for what it is though, and especially within the context of the synthpop genre, it's definitely an above average album.
Really, the Björk and Portishead comparisons are tenuous at best.
im deaf and i like björk.


NOAA Fisheries approves state pilot projects for management of recreational red snapper fishing in the Gulf of Mexico for two years.
Count it as another little victory for recreational anglers.
NOAA Fisheries in April approved a pilot program that exempts fishing permit applications by the five Gulf states that will allow each state to manage the recreational red snapper fishing season for private anglers in its respective state and federal waters for 2018 and 2019.
Recreational anglers and industry stakeholders strongly support the decision and anticipate the Gulf states will finally be able to prove their effectiveness in managing red snapper off their coasts.
"We owe a great deal of thanks to Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross for his resolve in finding a solution to the red snapper management mess in the Gulf of Mexico. This is a huge step forward for recreational anglers," said Jeff Angers, President of the Center for Sportfishing Policy (CSP). "We are delighted to see a new level of cooperation between state and federal fishery managers and a respect for recreational fisheries at the federal level like we have never seen before."
Angers added that CSP is confident the states will responsibly manage this valuable natural resource with participation from anglers who have long advocated for a more responsive management system.
"While the pilot program was an improvement for angling boaters, it is not a permanent fix. BoatUS has long favored moving management of the red snapper season for recreational anglers from the federal to the state level, and continues to voice support for this approach to recreational fishing management," said David Kennedy, Manager of Government Affairs for BoatUS.
Under the jurisdiction of the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council, part of NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service, the Gulf red snapper has become the epitome of the difficulty in managing recreational anglers under today's federal fisheries law. Over the last decade, what was once a six-month red snapper season with a four-fish bag limit for recreational anglers was reduced to a historically low three-day season with a two-fish bag limit in 2017, despite data showing a healthier fish stock. That three-day federal season ran from June 1 to June 3. On June 14, 2017, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced it would extend the 2017 recreational red snapper season by 39 weekend days in the Gulf of Mexico for private recreational anglers.
In 2018 and 2019, each of the five Gulf states will establish recreational fishing seasons for red snapper in its waters, including federal waters.
Licensed recreational anglers — fishing from private vessels, not charter-for-hire vessels — will be exempt from federal red snapper regulations and will be subject to fishing regulations set by each state.
Each state will monitor red snapper landings by private recreational anglers and close their season if its assigned quota is reached or is expected to be reached.

A: Looking at your Flume Sink, it seems that you are not running this on a cluster, but on a local host.
Check the HDFS path, whether it is accessible:
agent1.sinks.PurePathSink.hdfs.path = hdfs://127.0.0.1:9000/User/bts/pp

The port number generally is 8020 (if you are using Cloudera Distribution)

JUNO BEACH, Fla. - JUNO BEACH, Fla. (AP) — The pilot of an American Airlines jet that overshot the runway in Jamaica said Saturday that he's happy to be home with his family for the holidays, and praised his crew for their quick thinking and professionalism.
"This is the best Christmas," Captain Brian Cole told The Associated Press at his South Florida home. "I am just so happy to be home with my family."
Flight 331 skidded off the runway as it landed in Kingston, Jamaica, in heavy rain Tuesday night, arriving from Washington's Reagan National Airport by way of Miami. The Boeing 737-800's fuselage cracked open, the left main landing gear collapsed and the nose was crushed as the plane lurched to a halt at the ocean's edge.
All 154 people aboard survived. Ninety-two were taken to hospitals, with no injuries considered life-threatening. The U.S. State Department said 76 of the passengers were Americans.
Cole walked away "pretty banged up" with bruises on his forearms, chest and stomach, but no broken bones.
"It's a testament to the professionalism of American Airlines," he said. "I have the highest praise for my first officer and eternal gratitude for the way the flight attendants reacted in their professionalism to get all the passengers home to their families, as well."
Cole spent Christmas with friends and family, and chatted by phone with crew members and flight attendants Saturday as he relaxed at home, thankful that the outcome wasn't much worse.
He said he could not speak further about the crash, because of the ongoing investigation.
Authorities investigating why the jetliner overshot the runway at Norman Manley International Airport will receive flight data next week that should help establish a cause for the accident that sent dozens to the hospital, an official said Saturday.
The study of the plane's wreckage will end Sunday, and officials will then review flight data recorder information that is expected in the next few days, said Oscar Derby, director general of Jamaica's Civil Aviation Authority.
"We are investigating every possible factor," he said. "We are leaving no stones unturned."
Work crews planned to remove the jet's tail late Saturday because it was blocking 900 feet (270 meters) of the runway, limiting it to smaller aircraft, Derby said.
Offshore lights that help guide pilots into Jamaica's main airport were not working at the time of the accident, but officials said they did not believe that contributed to the crash because pilots had been warned and the runway was fully lit.
The offshore lights have been out for more than a month and are scheduled to be replaced in February, Derby said.
Officials with the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board remained in Jamaica helping with the investigation, he said.
Associated Press writer Danica Coto in San Juan, Puerto Rico, contributed to this report.

The Greek economy is suffering. In April 2010, a €45 billion bailout package was agreed between Greece and the IMF and the EU. This was increased to €110 billion in May 2011. (The bailout loans expire in 2013.) In return for the loans, Greece agreed to tough austerity measures, involving tax increases, clamping down on tax evasion and government expenditure cuts. These measures have succeeded in cutting the deficit by 5 percentage points, but it still stood at 10.5% of GDP in 2010. Public-sector debt rose from 127% of GDP in 2009 to 143% in 2010. The market cost of borrowing on two-year government bonds currently stands at 23% per annum – a sign of a serious lack of confidence by investors in Greece's ability to repay the loans.
The austerity measures have brought great hardship. Unemployment has soared. In February 2011, it reached 15.9%; in February last year it was 12.1%. According to the IMF's World Economic Outlook (Table A2), Greek real GDP fell by 2.0% in 2009, by 4.5% in 2010 and is forecast to fall by 3.0% in 2011. But with GDP falling, this brings automatic fiscal stabilisers into play: lower incomes mean lower income tax revenues; lower expenditure means lower VAT revenue; higher unemployment means that more people claim unemployment-related benefits. This all makes it harder to meet the deficit reduction targets through discretionary tax rises and government expenditure cuts and makes it even more important to cut down on tax evasion. But, of course, the more taxes rise and the more government expenditure is cut, the more this suppresses aggregate demand. The austerity measures have thus worsened the recession.
On May 9, the ratings agency Standard & Poor's downgraded Greece's rating to B (15 points below the top rating of AAA and 6 points into 'junk' territory). It now has the lowest rating in Europe along with Belarus.
Worries have been growing that Greece might be forced to default on some its debt, or choose to do so. This would probably mean an extension of repayment periods. In other words, bondholders would be paid back in full but at a later date. This has been referred to as 'debt re-profiling'. This could cause a renewed loss of confidence, not only in the Greek economy, but also in banks that are major lenders to Greece and which would be exposed in the case of default or restructuring.
The IMF and the ECB have been quick to stress that Greece can continue to manage its debt and that, if necessary, another loan might be negotiated. Anticipations are that Greece could indeed ask for a further bailout. But is this the answer? Or would it be better if Greece sought a restructuring of its debt? The following webcasts and podcasts consider the issue.

Paris Club relief
The Paris Club is the name given to the grouping of 19 rich countries which meets in Paris monthly to consider the cancellation or rescheduling of official loans to poor countries (see Sloman Economics 7th edition, pages 784–5). For many of the 40 heavily indebted poor countries (HIPCs), this debt relief has been substantial, with 36 of the HIPCs receiving full or partial cancellation of their debts (see Sloman Economics7th edition, pages 788–90).
On 17 November it was the turn of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The Paris Club cancelled 97.6% of the debt owed to its members by the DRC – $7.35 billion. As the Paris Club press statement says:
The representatives of the Paris Club creditor countries and Brazil met with the representatives of the Government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) on 17 November 2010 and agreed on a reduction of the debt following the DRC having reached its Completion Point under the enhanced initiative for the Heavily Indebted Poor Countries (enhanced HIPC Initiative) on 1 July 2010.
As a contribution to restoring the DRC's debt sustainability, the Paris Club creditors will provide a cancellation of USD 7350 million, fulfilling all their commitments under the enhanced HIPC initiative.
However, the Paris Club did have some reservations. These are explored in the articles below.
Paris Club cancels more than half of DR Congo's debt International Business Times, Palash R. Ghosh (19/11/10)

More shots from the Pikom PC Fair down at KLCC Convention Center a certain 17th of April 2010!
I am not sure when it started but promoter girls started to be a mainstay of PC Fairs.
I sure don't remember them around in the PWTC days!
You'll see familiar faces in the circuit.
The girls in the first hall in particular are dolled up.
You could say the same for the booths too! The booths are far more spacious and seem to have some proper interior design instead of a square box, a table and a few chairs.
Interestingly, the up-and-coming products pay to be in the first hall. She promotes Kingsoft Office here.
Tattooed HTC girl way inside!
Down at the busier halls it felt like a good old PC Fair – sandwiched crowds and price lists written with marker pens.
…and you get to see a fresh, regular girl-next-door.

Resources in Yiddish Studies: The Holocaust
Zachary M. Baker
Jun 20,
This is the sixth installment in an online bibliographical series devoted to research resources in Yiddish Studies. The search guide is divided into the following units, which are being published in installments:
"Meta"-resources: bibliographies, web gateways, online scholarship, indexes, library and archival resources, encyclopedias.
Digital collections in Yiddish Studies.
Yiddish linguistic scholarship, including dictionaries.
Yiddish literature and culture.
Bibliographies of imprints (by country or region); The Yiddish Press
Anti-Semitism and the Holocaust (Yiddish focus).
Since the first installment of this Research Guide came out we have received suggestions for the inclusion of additional sources, which are always welcome. Readers are invited to contribute suggestions, which may be included in updated versions of the guides.

It is something of a cliché to observe that Holocaust survivors kept silent following the traumatic events of World War II. It is also a considerable exaggeration, to say the least, as the documentary evidence reveals. As early as 1940, the historian Emanuel Ringelblum organized the grass-roots archival collecting initiative in the Warsaw Ghetto known by the code name Oyneg shabes.
Immediately following their liberation, Holocaust survivors (with support from Jewish organizations abroad and, in some cases, from local governments) followed in Ringelblum's footsteps by establishing historical commissions which recorded thousands of testimonies and eyewitness accounts. They were aware that it was up to the survivors themselves to gather the evidence that might be of use to war-crimes tribunals. In addition, as with Oyneg shabes, the historical commissions' archives would eventually be made available to scholars studying the Holocaust period.
Thousands of accounts by survivors were published in the Yiddish newspapers and magazines that came out in the postwar displaced persons camps and abroad. Longer narratives appeared as books in such series as Dos poylishe yidntum (published in Buenos Aires). Elie Wiesel's book Un di velt hot geshvign—later adapted and translated as La nuit / Night—was part of that series. And years before Holocaust Studies was recognized as a field of legitimate academic inquiry, the YIVO Institute, in New York, and Yad Vashem, in Jerusalem, embarked on their ambitious Joint Documentary Projects, which eventually yielded over a dozen book-length research guides and bibliographies. Four of these are listed in this section; to paraphrase Elie Wiesel: Neyn, mir hobn davke nit geshvign! No, indeed we did not remain silent!

As was mentioned in Part 1, the "Resources in Yiddish Studies" series had its origins in a workshop that I led at the University of California, Berkeley in April 2015. The reference works and online resources that were discussed then are included in this Research Guide. In the course of preparing each section of the guide I have added items that were not included in the Berkeley workshop, either for lack of time on that occasion or because they were not yet available then.
Bibliographical work is by its very nature a dynamic process; therefore, a bibliographer's work is never complete. Omissions result both when the bibliographer has overlooked particular sources or has made conscious, curatorial decisions to exclude them. (For my part, I confess to an implicitly Anglo-American bias in many of my selections for this Research Guide.) And almost inevitably, as soon as a bibliography is put to bed, new materials surface that beg to be added to the compilation.
In the print era, such addenda were either tacked on in a supplement or they remained unpublished altogether. In that connection, the sorry fate of the lost, fifth volume of Zalmen Reyzen's bio-bibliographical Leksikon of Yiddish writers comes to mind—as does the tragic fate of Reyzen himself, a victim of Stalinist repression in 1940. A happier denouement appears to be in store for volume seven of Zalmen Zylbercweig's Leksikon of the Yiddish theater, for which only the galleys exist: there is hope that the final volume of this important reference work will be digitized and published on the web, through the good graces of the Digital Yiddish Theatre Project.
So much has changed during the four decades of my career as a librarian. My work at the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research in the 1970s and early 1980s consisted of typing cards for the thousands of Yiddish books that I was assigned to catalog. Those cards—and others—were eventually reproduced in the Yiddish Catalog and Authority File of the YIVO Library (Boston: G. K. Hall, 1990; that publication is cited in Part 1 of this Research Guide). Even now, not all of YIVO's bibliographical records for Yiddish books are included in the WorldCat database—and for that reason the Yiddish Catalog and Authority File of the YIVO Library has not been entirely superseded. That is why, in my interactions with researchers, I continue to underscore the importance of the print legacy.
And yet: In 2002, when I first led a Research Methods seminar for graduate students in Jewish Studies at Stanford, the syllabus was essentially a very long bibliography of print reference works that I had been introduced to in courses that I had previously taken, or had learned about (and used) on the job. Recent iterations of that seminar have been weighted much more heavily toward online resources. More information is now available online and, with it, research habits have changed. While Shlomo Shunami's Bibliography of Jewish Bibliographies continues to occupy an honored position on my bookshelf—I even consult it from time to time—experience teaches me that students regard Shunami and publications like it as bibliographical tombstones.
Indeed, the web has transformed and (when at its best) democratized the research process. As this Research Guide attests, many older publications have been digitized and put online; a host of DIY projects facilitate the ability, say, to type in Yiddish; indexes and full-text databases offer ready access to ever more primary and secondary source material; and Wikipedia—whatever its shortcomings—serves as a handy informational tool. Now, when a researcher brings a new or overlooked source to my attention, it can be quickly added to the Research Guide in its proper location—and not grafted on at the end, seemingly as an afterthought.
Ultimately, though (as Stanford's library director, Michael Keller, likes to say), when it comes to content "it's all stuff." And it is in that spirit that I have strived to make "Resources in Yiddish Studies" an inclusive, format-neutral reference compendium for researchers. The process of compiling it has been an engrossing learning experience for me, and I hope that readers of this series will find the guide useful.

Xavier Harris rushed for 177 yards and four TDs as Oxnard beat Rio Mesa, 43-14, to take over sole possession of first place in the Pacific View League.
Must be nice to have your record-setting quarterback showcase his handoff skills.
Such has been the case for Oxnard High, which has quietly shifted its offensive focus from program career passing record-holder Vincent Walea to the legs of running back Xavier Harris.
Harris rushed for 177 yards and four TDs as Oxnard beat visiting Rio Mesa, 43-14, Friday night at homecoming.
With Ventura's win over Buena, Oxnard (6-2, 3-0) takes over sole possession of first place in the Pacific View League.
Walea became the first Oxnard quarterback with 40 career TD passes after throwing strikes of 31 and 19 yards to JR Waters. Walea was only 4 of 7 for 69 yards.
But with Harris coming into his own with 350 yards rushing and seven TDs in his last two games and the Oxnard defense containing Rio Mesa (4-4, 1-2) for most of the night, Walea didn't have to do much more than watch.
Primarily a flanker last season, Harris has had to evolve as a running back. It didn't come easily.
"I changed my attitude," said Harris. "I decided against being tackled one-on-one in the backfield. My coaches told me to be more patient. So I wait and follow my fullback, follow my guard and follow my tackle."
For Oxnard coach Jon Mack, who's seen his share of blue chip running backs over the last 30 years in the county, Harris could be right up there.
"He's one of the best that I have ever seen," said Mack. "He has great vision and speed. And he's still learning."
Harris, who is only a junior, scored on carries of 11, 1, 13 and 70 yards.
As has been the case for the second half of the season, the Oxnard defense was dominant.
With the exception of four plays, the two teams spent the first half on Rio Mesa's side of the field. An interception by Dom Brown, his fifth of the season and eighth of his career, plus two blocked punts helped set up the Oxnard for TD drives of 27, 45, 31 and 34 yards.
Rio Mesa sustained a clock-eating 8:11 drive that began in the first quarter and ended with 5:44 left in the second quarter, ending with a fourth-down quarterback sack.
Moses Marsico, the PVL's season rushing leader, rushed for 108 yards and scored on a 49-yard run with 5:28 left in the game.
Rio Mesa's other TD came on a 6-yard run by Don Spence with 3:29 remaining.
Oxnard has a chance to clinch no worse than a co-championship next Friday on the road against Buena, while Rio Mesa travels to Pacifica.


EDA software vendor Cadence held its CDNLive India 2015 event on 18th and 19th of Aug in Bangalore. The event as usual talked about latest industry trends on general electronics industry and also specific to VLSI/semiconductor industry. Lip-Bu Tan, president and CEO of Cadence talked more about smart home and automotive electronics.
He highlighted the features in Smart home such as smart thermostat, airconditioner which follows weather, detects occupancy, learning patterns, adjust energy use. And in automotives, trends such as explosion in vision processing, fusion of sensors, cabin acoustics, electronic mirrors, always aware systems sensing sound movement, position sensing are the features driving the design requirement of both electronics as well as chips inside them.
Today, between 3/4th of all car innovations are based directly or indirectly on semiconductors. Car makers around the world thinking over the idea of internal chip design team.
Smart home is one system of subsystems and smart-automotive is another such system of subsystems. In today's interconnected world, your personal digital device, cloud computers/data centers, smart home and automotive has to work together like a system of systems, where functional safety gains exponential importance. Lip Bu Tan presented a video on how system of systems are evolving. Connected smart homes, smartcars with many such other smart things make up smart city, which is basically a another big system of systems. Medical electronics was also mentioned in the Lip Bu's talk.
All these trends finally drive the semiconductor market, Lip Bu Tan said that there is lot of activity in the 14 nm and 16 nm VLSI design, and some of the leading-edge companies are already into 10 nm and 7 nm VLSI.
When the revenues not growing up for semiconductor companies, they press the innovation button harder and the research grows faster to deliver products to enhance the human life. That looks to be happening because there is no significant revenue growth.
As usual, the challenges and complexities increase at the deeper nodes. A lot more verification, a lot more software, a lot more IP blocks, hardware and software qualification.
Lip Bu Tan also touched upon how OEM system companies such as Huawei and Cisco have decided to integrate vertically. There are many system companies designing their own chips for internal use, this is a big trend.
In last 18 months, Cadence has developed faster and time-saving EDA tools, with much more automation and error preventing functions/features. Cadence claims some of its tools takes days instead of weeks for some of the key VLSI design processes.
How can be an electronics engineering keynote 2015 ends without talking about IOT. Mahesh Mehendale, MCU Chief Technologist and director of Kilby Labs India at Texas Instruments highlighted the importance of power saving in IoT product design where your DC/DC converter to front end analog's power performance matters along with choosing the best digital IC.

My guidance counselor predicted prison at an early age, so I consider my radio show as overachieving.
Listen to the Doc Holiday Live Stream
I have been a radio nerd since I was a junior in high school back in 1983. Since then, I have scared listeners by saying really strange things between songs. My guidance counselor predicted prison at an early age, so I consider my radio show as overachieving. The truth is that everyone that interacts with my radio show are the real stars as their calls, Facebook comments and occasional threats are funnier than anything I could ever come up with.

7 Cheyenne Restaurants That Need a Second Location in the Capital City
Cheyenne has been growing lately. There's been some new businesses that have been opening and some that are currently in the process of being built. But given the city size, and the fact that it is the capital city in Wyoming, what if we could have a second location to some of our favorite restaurants that currently have just one location?
Cheyenne Temps Ranged From 96 Degrees To -15 Last Year
About a third of the total snowfall in the city fell during a 24-hour period in a historic blizzard that hit the city in March.

Living Proof Creative Team Recommends Their Favorite Documentaries
By Living Proof CreativeJuly 1, 2020July 27th, 2021Blog4 min read
The past month has seen many countries relax the COVID-19-imposed quarantine measures and lives slowly getting back to the new normal. Social distancing and #staycations are still strongly advised, and what better way to enjoy the relative comfort of your home than watching some quality TV?
The Living Proof Creative team has assembled a list of documentaries that have recently kept us entertained and informed, and that we'd like you to see too.
Hip Hop Evolution
Four seasons deep into Hip-Hop Evolution, Netflix's audience is familiar with everything from the early days of hip-hop in the South Bronx to the East Coast vs. West Coast rivalry. The series not only does a great job of breaking down the music but also the culture from which the music has emerged. We love how powerfully it points out that art isn't just created in a vacuum, but reflects the lived realities of those involved.
There's no denying that Michael Jordan is one of the best players who has ever stepped foot on the basketball court. Right now, you can take a trip down his incredible career in a new documentary mini-series called 'The Last Dance'. The series paints the story behind Jordan's departure from the team and is a blend of present-day interviews, gameplay from Jordan's time with the Bulls, and some exclusive rare archival footage.
Fyre unpacks the disastrous behind-the-scenes realities of the scam orchestrated by entrepreneur-turned-felon Billy McFarland. What was initially promoted by supermodels, influencers, and rapper Ja Rule as a luxury concert experience in the Bahamas was soon revealed to be a multi-million dollar swindle that left numerous investors defrauded and hundreds of wannabe attendees stranded in a bleak wreckage site thousands of miles away from home.
Actor and space enthusiast Morgan Freeman doubles as a host and narrator of the new series Through The Wormhole. This exploration into the greatest mysteries of the universe was produced by Freeman's Revelations Entertainment and seeks to answer the big questions: Are we alone? Where do we come from? Is there life on other planets?
From NASA's latest explorations and private enterprise facilities to emerging academic research and theories, this series looks at black holes, possibilities for colonizing the other planets, string theory, and more. Morgan Freeman picks up where Carl Sagan's "Cosmos" left off and explores the new frontiers.
From saving people from car wrecks and shootings to domestic-violence calls, seemingly chaotic streets of Mexico City provide The Midnight family with a way to make a living. The Ochoa family is part of an army of private, for-profit ambulance services dedicated to filling the gaps left by the city's deeply broken medical system.
In this stunning documentary, Fernando and his sons race through traffic to be the first at the scene, deal with bribe-hungry cops, competing EMTs, and victims who cannot or simply refuse to pay, yet somehow manage to find the time to be a normal, caring family — and to hold onto a belief that, even amidst all the mayhem, tomorrow will be a better day.
Beastie Boys Story
The Beasties' story is about as old and wholesome as the birth of hip-hop itself, and anyone who has ever watched a TV special about the group can bet that's the truth.
In this new documentary, Horovitz and Diamond trace back their childhood memories, reminisce of the times they met the late Adam "MCA" Yauch at a Bad Brains show and have discovered the music of Run-D.M.C., and how they eventually crossed paths with Rick Rubin. It is a joyful, infectious story of the human capacity to change, and the importance of creative freedom to guide that change.
Honeyland is a portrayal of the delicate balance between humankind and nature, a glimpse at a fast-disappearing way of life, and a testament to one extraordinary woman's resilience. Hatidze Muratova lives with her ailing mother in a village without roads, electricity, or running water. She's the last in a long line of Macedonian beekeepers who farm honey in small batches and sell it in the nearby city.
When a traveling family arrives, Hatidze's peaceful existence faces disarray. Though she optimistically offers the family her beekeeping advice, the family's patriarch soon casts Hatidze's advice aside in his hunt for profit, causing a breach in the natural order and threatening Hatidze's means of survival.
Dark Net
Consisting of eight episodes running a half-hour each, the Dark Net docu-series explores roughly 80% of Internet activity that occurs in and around the so-called dark web. This is the place Internet surfers go to indulge the fetishes and desires that they'd rather keep out of the public eye. The series also examines how the technology that makes the deep web possible is now insinuating itself, more and more, into everyday life.
Bruce Lee 30 For 30: Be Water
It's impossible not to admire Bruce Lee. His charisma explodes out of the screen and radiates from every television appearance. For those unfamiliar with Bruce Lee, 30 for 30: Be Water is a fascinating, intimate look at not just those final, defining years of Lee's life, but the complex, often difficult, and an unstable journey that led to his ultimate rise as a film and martial arts icon and the connection between the eastern and western world.

Adult Swim has kind of been on fire lately. Their hilariously bizarre show, Children's Hospital, just won an Emmy. And recently they produced "The Greatest Event in Television History," and with that title, you know they've got to back it up. So they did, with Jon Hamm, Jeff Probst, Gus Van Sant, Paul Rudd, and Adam Scott.
Hilarious right? Cartoon Network has commissioned Adam Scott to write a couple of more things along these lines and I know I can't wait. And that Jon Hamm? How totally unfair is it that he absolutely KILLS as Don Draper on Mad Men but is this genius comedic actor too? I kind of want to hate the guy but he's just so damn charming and handsome. Damn you, Jon Hamm!

A classic Grand Seiko design with a dial that captures a treasured moment in the Japanese seasonal calendar.
This is a modern re-interpretation of the celebrated 62GS from 1967. The 62GS was not only Grand Seiko's first watch with an automatic movement, it was also, along with the 44GS released the same year, the watch that first expressed the design grammar, the Grand Seiko Style, that still shapes all Grand Seiko designs today. Like its predecessor, this modern re-interpretation has the characteristic sharp edges and perfect distortion-free surfaces that only Zaratsu polishing can create and a wide dial opening which was achieved thanks to a bezel-free construction.
To look closely at the dial is to be transported to Hana-Ikada, the much-loved scene at the moment soon after the spring equinox, Shunbun when cherry blossom petals scattered by the wind cover the surface of a river. The textured dial and its pale pink color capture the magic of this treasured moment in the Japanese calendar and not only express the beauty of Sakura but hint at the exquisite pleasure to be derived from a profound understanding of the ephemeral nature of time.
The watch is powered by Spring Drive caliber 9R65, which is hand assembled by the skilled craftsmen and women of the Shinshu Watch Studio.

Stone Protectors was a multi-media entertainment property consisting primarily of an action figure line and animated series. The series also had a video game on the Super Nintendo. It served as a late attempt to market the troll doll craze of the early 1990s to young boys. While not particularly successful, nor inspired by a prior medium, Stone Protectors generally followed in the same vein as contemporaries like Toxic Crusaders, Swamp Thing, and the highly popular Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Street Fighter II: The World Warrior (Japanese: ストリートファイターⅡ -The World Warrior-?) is a competitive fighting game originally released for the arcades in 1991. It is the second entry in the Street Fighter series and the arcade sequel to the original Street Fighter released in 1987. It is Capcom's fourteenth title that runs on the CP System arcade hardware. Street Fighter II improves upon the many concepts introduced in the first game, including the use of command-based special moves and a six-button configuration, while offering players a selection of multiple playable characters, each with their own unique fighting style, and introducing a combo system and competitive multiplayer combat between two players.The success of Street Fighter II is credited for starting the fighting game boom during the 1990s which inspired other game developers to produce their own fighting game franchises, popularizing the genre, and setting off a renaissance for the arcade game industry in the early 1990s. It was then ported to the Super Nintendo Entertainment System home console, for which it became a long-lasting system-seller. Its success led to a sub-series of updated versions (see below), each offering additional features and characters over previous versions, as well as several home versions. By 1994, the game had been played by at least 25 million Americans in homes and arcades. By 1995, gross revenues of Street Fighter II and Street Fighter II: Champion Edition arcade machines had exceeded $2.312 billion (equivalent to over $4.02 billion in 2015). The video game console ports sold more than 14 million copies; the Super NES port of the original game sold 6.3 million units, making it Capcom 's best-selling single consumer game software of all time until 2013 (when it was surpassed by Resident Evil 5) and remaining their best-selling game software on a single platform through to the present day.
