The Model CMC20A is an enhanced version of our proven Model CMC20 which is used with the majority of mechanical current meters. The CMC20A is a self-contained instrument featuring microprocessor control circuitry, a quartz time base and a high temperature liquid crystal display.
The counter is powered by 6 x AA size alkaline batteries. Battery voltage below 5.8 volts is indicated by the display of decimal points. An internal buzzer sounds at each contact closure during the timing period to indicate correct operation.
The display on the CMC20A gives continuous indication of the pulse count during the course of the reading period - and indicates with a resolution of 1 to a maximum of 9999 counts.
Housing: Submersible powder coated aluminium die cast case with nylon webbing adjustable neck strap.
Timer: Quartz crystal accuracy, better than 1 in 20,000.
Preset Facility: Time intervals of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 80, 100, 200 and infinity seconds.
Contact Debounce: The current meter pulse is debounced in software. The debounce time is user selectable. (1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45mS) This is useful for a meter with a mechanical "cat whisker" contact wire.
Buzzer: Instantaneous beep for each current meter pulse except in the integrate mode - in this mode, the buzzer gives a continuous beep while the current meter switch or ground feeler weight switch is closed.
Power Supply: 9V DC - 6 AA Alkaline batteries (or 6 AA Nickel Metal Hybrid). The actual battery voltage is displayed for 2 seconds each time the unit is switched on. Low voltage is also indicated by all decimal points showing on the display at 5.8 volts.

Q: What does my cpu do when it is labeled as "system cpu"? My code often use a lot of "system cpu" (on ubuntu).
I understand that this means that the cpu is doing something else than actually running my code. I heard it can for instance input/ouput management.
I have two questions:
1) Can I have a more exhaustive list of what the cpu could be doing when it's on "system cpu"?
2) When I run a specific program, is there a way to identify, what the system cpu is doing on this run? (some kind of "system cpu" profiling)

A: When your CPU is in system state, that's because system calls are being executed. These system calls are for example I/Os (display, network, files), or memory (allocation, ...).
You can run your program using strace to get a verbose display of what system calls are currently executed by your program.

Wonderful post Eric! I agree with Cy Denneny that hockey has become far more dangerous than when I was a child (some 50+ years ago). I never thought of hockey as violent as a child/teen. What would Cy think of the game now? I used to love watching a good hockey game & I still do but as soon as the high sticking & cross checking & slamming into another player like a freight train happens…..I change the channel.
Why does hockey have to be so violent?
An bless Cy's heart saying he had a 'touch' of Arthritis….may he rest in peace.

A Beginner Guide to Comparing Values in Perl

How to Compare Perl Values Using Comparison Operators
ermingut / Getty Images
by Kirk Brown
Kirk Brown is a systems software engineer with expertise in Perl, PHP, Ruby, and Python.
Perl comparison operators can sometimes be confusing to new Perl programmers. The confusion stems from the fact that Perl actually has two sets of comparison operators - one for comparing numeric values and one for comparing string American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) values.
Since comparison operators are typically used to control logical program flow and make important decisions, using the wrong operator for the value you are testing can lead to bizarre errors and hours of debugging, if you're not careful.
Don't forget to catch what's written at the very bottom of this page for some last-minute things to remember.
Equal, Not Equal
The simplest and probably most used comparison operators test to see if one value is equal to another value. If the values are equal, the test returns true, and if the values are not equal, the test returns false.
For testing the equality of two numeric values, we use the comparison operator ==. For testing the equality of two string values, we use the comparison operator eq (EQual).
Here's an example of both:
if (5 == 5) { print "== for numeric values\n"; }
if ('moe' eq 'moe') { print "eq (EQual) for string values\n"; }
Testing for the opposite, not equal, is very similar. Remember that this test will return true if the values tested are not equal to each other. To see if two numeric values are not equal to each other, we use the comparison operator !=. To see if two string values are not equal to each other, we use the comparison operator ne (Not Equal).
if (5 != 6) { print "!= for numeric values\n"; }
if ('moe' ne 'curly') { print "ne (Not Equal) for string values\n"; }
Greater Than, Greater Than or Equal To
Now let's look at the greater than comparison operators. Using this first operator, you can test to see if one value is greater than another value. To see if two numeric values are greater than each other, we use the comparison operator >. To see if two string values are greater than each other, we use the comparison operator gt (Greater Than).
if (5 > 4) { print "> for numeric values\n"; }
if ('B' gt 'A') { print "gt (Greater Than) for string values\n"; }
You can also test for greater than or equal to, which looks very similar. Keep in mind that this test will return true if the values tested are equal to each other, or if the value on the left is greater than the value on the right.
To see if two numeric values are greater than or equal to each other, we use the comparison operator >=. To see if two string values are greater than or equal to each other, we use the comparison operator ge (Greater-than Equal-to).
if (5 >= 5) { print ">= for numeric values\n"; }
if ('B' ge 'A') { print "ge (Greater-than Equal-to) for string values\n"; }
Less Than, Less Than or Equal To
There are a variety of comparison operators you can use to determine the logical flow of your Perl programs. We've already discussed the difference between the Perl numeric comparison operators and the Perl string comparison operators, which can cause some confusion to new Perl programmers. We've also learned how to tell if two values are equal to, or not equal to each other, and we've learned how to tell if two values are greater than or equal to each other.
Let's look at the less than comparison operators. Using this first operator, you can test to see if one value is less than another value. To see if two numeric values are less than each other, we use the comparison operator <. To see if two string values are less than each other, we use the comparison operator lt (Less Than).
if (4 < 5) { print "< for numeric values\n"; }
if ('A' lt 'B') { print "lt (Less Than) for string values\n"; }
You can also test for, less than or equal to, which looks very similar. Remember that this test will return true if the values tested are equal to each other, or if the value on the left is less than the value on the right. To see if two numeric values are less than or equal to each other, we use the comparison operator <=. To see if two string values are less than or equal to each other, we use the comparison operator le (Less-than Equal-to).
if (5 <= 5) { print "<= for numeric values\n"; }
if ('A' le 'B') { print "le (Less-than Equal-to) for string values\n"; }
More Information on Comparison Operators
When we talk about string values being equal to each other, we're referring to their ASCII values. So, the capital letters are technically less than the lowercase letters, and the higher the letter is in the alphabet, the higher the ASCII value.
Make sure you check your ASCII values if you're trying to make logical decisions based on strings.

It is astonishing how something which you thought you had buried can still come back to haunt you. The Commonwealth Games started almost two weeks ago and I was glued to the screen, listening to the action through the left earbud of my headphones, one eye on my work screen and one eye on the live swimming action. All the while, thinking of what could have been.
I remember touching the wall after winning the 200 IM at British nationals while the other two British swimmers were preparing to race the same race two weeks later at the Olympic Games. And in that moment when I saw my time and the number one next to my name, I knew that it was all over. I knew it deep inside my gut.
I still had the conversation with my coach four weeks later after the race, exploring the idea that I could possibly continue – with a view to qualify for the Commonwealth Games for England on the Gold Coast. It is funny how a lack of direction can pull you back to the place where you have absolute direction, absolute certainty.
But after more deliberation, I decided to move on, to stare uncertainty right in the face and be vulnerable. And boy was I vulnerable, crying at films like Eddie the Eagle, sobbing uncontrollably whilst looking at my best times on the British swimming database. It was good to cry – I felt like I was getting it all out. Processing what I needed to process. I felt relief.
There has been a lot of talk recently in the media about the mental state of our athletes, our heroes, our gladiators in the ring winning golds for the nation. We celebrate them then forget about them moments later. I sometimes think I have it easy – that other, more glorified athletes have it or will have it harder because they have been to the very top. And, they might do.
I thought I had processed everything, I even coached to be on the other side of it all, to submerse myself in dealing with that emotion. But since moving to London I turned my back on it once again. I started drinking more and going out more. I was in control I must add, but my emotions certainly were not. It really struck home when the Commonwealth Games started because I realised there was still more to process.
I started watching the Games, watching the BBC highlights and watching the raw emotion of people. Watching the shock, the elation of winning, the misery of defeat and the courage of individuals. I felt everything and it brought back everything for me. It brought back the fear. It brought back the sadness. But it also brought back the joy. And it all came back in a flood of tears of rage, sadness and happiness.
I think all athletes have it hard, no matter what the level. In fact, I think everyone has it hard. We all try to find ways to hide from the pain we have buried away. And sometimes that is necessary. You cannot process everything at once – it would be impossible. I've been lucky – I have had the support, the guidance to process my emotions in a safe environment with no judgement. But, it is okay to feel what you feel no matter what it is, no matter what you must process. Whether it be sport, your job, your upbringing, your scarring experiences, the hard decisions that we must face – it does not matter.
Know that you can hide, it is okay to bury your head in the sand, as long as you recognise when you do eventually have the strength, that you can take it out and face your emotions with the courage that we all have inside. Everyone is always given the same three shining gifts after tackling each of these seemingly endless experiences – healing, relief and growth. The latter, in my mind one of the most essential ingredients of life. Combined with living in the moment and finding the pockets joy – you cannot go wrong.

Vactor to Expand Manufacturing Facility
Vactor's parent company, Federal Signal Corporation, is expecting to invest up to $25 million over the course of the expansion project, which will increase efficiency and capacity to supply the growing demand for Vactor's newly redesigned 2100i combination sewer cleaner and the TRUVAC branded series of hydroexcavators.

Vactor Manufacturing, Inc. announced plans to expand its Streator, Ill., manufacturing facility. The project is expected to increase Vactor's production capacity and add up to 90 additional jobs.
"We are excited to announce this expansion of our Streator facility as it represents the culmination of many years of investment in developing new products and expanding our customer base," said Sam Miceli, vice president and general manager of Vactor. "It also underscores Vactor's ongoing commitment to its workforce and this community; both have been, and continue to be, outstanding partners in our growth."
The first phase of the project will expand the existing fabrication, welding, paint and assembly areas, as well as the test bays. Additionally, the current training center and customer inspection facility will be updated. Overall, the expansion will add approximately 100,000 square feet to the existing facility. Construction is expected to begin in the first-half of 2019, with completion targeted by the end of the year.
The first phase of the project will expand the existing fabrication, welding, paint and assembly areas, as well as the test bays. Additionally, the current training center and customer inspection facility will be updated.
"With the continued momentum we are seeing with our "safe-digging" initiative that utilizes vacuum excavation technology over more invasive digging techniques, and with benefits from recent new product enhancements to our sewer cleaner lines, we see significant growth opportunities for Vactor, and for Federal Signal," said Jennifer Sherman, Federal Signal's President and CEO. "This is another significant investment in our Streator facility, as we look to add the necessary capacity in response to that growth potential. It also is a testament to the talented and dedicated workforce that we are fortunate to have in the Streator area."
The project received assistance and support from the State of Illinois, the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity ("DCEO"), the City of Streator, and the Greater Livingston County Economic Development Council. DCEO provides intergovernmental coordination on behalf of companies seeking new opportunities for economic development.
Vactor began operations in Chicago in 1911, initially as the Myers-Sherman Company. Federal Signal acquired Vactor in 1994. "Myers-Sherman relocated its operations to Streator from Chicago in the 1930s," said City Manager Scot Wrighton.

If there has been work done by a utility company or a plumber in, or near to your home then the supply can become contaminated. It is best to run the water for a while through the taps in your home before using the washing machine.
The tub of the machine is plastic and the drum is coated in stainless steel so it is unlikely that your machine is rusting inside.
Rust stains can be removed by covering it in salt and then rubbing with lemon juice. Rinse thoroughly before washing again.

Q: Bell partial numbers Consider the problem of partitioning a set with $n$ elements into at most $k$ parts. Clearly, when $k\geq n$, the answer is $B_{n}$ (the $n$th Bell number).
What happens when $k<n$ (beyond that this is a partial sum of Stirling numbers of the second kind)? Do these numbers have a name (something like incomplete or partial Bell numbers)? Is there a good reference to this topic?
Edit: As discussed in the comments, this is the sequence A102661 in the  The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences.

The Unfinished Business of the Northern Ireland Protocol
HomeThe Unfinished Business of the Northern...
Posted by anna 4 September 2020
First published as a UKTPO blog available here.
While the world battles the Covid-19 pandemic, the UK Government's decision not to request an extension to the transition period means that the UK and the EU have only eight months until 31st December 2020 to complete the talks on the future trading relationship. If a trade deal is not agreed by 1 January 2021 the Northern Ireland Protocol will take effect. The Protocol, which forms part of the Withdrawal Agreement, determines how the Irish border will work in the absence of agreement at the end of the transition period. A Joint Committee, a body established within the Withdrawal Agreement, is charged with, amongst other things, deciding how the Protocol will be implemented. The deadline for making these decisions is therefore fast approaching.
As a reminder, the purpose of the Northern Ireland Protocol is to avoid a hard border on the island of Ireland between the Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland because of the political and historical sensitivities. Instead, the customs and regulatory border has been placed in the Irish Sea. Under this unprecedented scenario, Northern Ireland will de facto be a member of two separate customs territories at the same time. While it remains an integral part of the UK's customs territory according to the text of the Protocol, it will also continue applying EU's customs legislation, tariffs, quotas and, partially, EU Single Market rules. This makes the new Irish Sea border completely unique. While the main principles and formalities governing the border (import and exports, customs declarations) will remain the same, this will not be 'border as usual'. New elements, new processes and potentially new paperwork will be required
The controversy concerning the proposed EU office in Belfast is a good reminder of the unprecedented nature of this border: while it goes through the UK's territory, it is also the EU's external border. How much oversight will the EU have over the border procedures? This and many other customs related issues are left unanswered in the text of the Protocol.
Establishing where the procedures and potential checks will take place – the Irish Sea – is not sufficient. While we know where and roughly what type of customs procedures will apply, the how remains unclear. And that is the part that will make the difference for companies trading across this new border.
It is worth remembering that the Protocol was drafted under time pressure and as a result, a number of elements were left to be decided at a later stage. Some of these decisions were left to the Joint Committee, some simply require clarification. That is not to say that the text is open to interpretation or renegotiation – simply that to implement it certain details need to be clarified. Some of these topics have been subject to comments and interpretation by politicians, officials and commentators, but without official confirmation from both sides, companies will lack the detail they need to properly prepare.
Areas for the UK and the EU to clarify jointly
According to Article 4, the Protocol should not prevent Northern Ireland participating in trade deals signed by the UK. However, the text does not clarify whether the same would be the case for EU deals. If Northern Ireland could not benefit from the EU's current trade deals, how would that be enforced? With no border controls between the EU and Northern Ireland and unfettered access from Northern Ireland to Great Britain ("GB"), how could transhipments be prevented? And what about quotas? It's not been officially confirmed whether Northern Ireland would have access to some EU quotas.
Was the assumption that these points will be further clarified by the Joint Committee? Or that the economic impact would be so negligible to the point that these questions are just left unanswered?
Decisions that need to be made by the Joint Committee
Many if not all technical aspects of border management were left to be determined by the Joint Committee, including which GB goods can enter Northern Ireland tariff-free. As a result of the dual status, any good(s) shipped from GB to Northern Ireland will be subject to EU tariffs if they are "at risk of subsequently being moved into the Union, whether by itself or forming part of another good following processing". Part of the Joint Committee's work is to establish criteria based on which goods could be considered NOT at risk of subsequently being moved into the Union. This obviously is of great importance for the private sector for two reasons:
The tariff burden will be something that companies would want to understand in advance, as customs duty is a cost to the bottom line.
The procedure to determine which goods are at risk is likely to involve additional steps and paperwork. It might end up being an additional burden and administrative cost for companies. Therefore, a clarification on what this process will look like in practice is of paramount interest for companies involved in GB- Northern Ireland trade.
Decisions that need to be made by the UK Government
Article 5, Paragraph 6 of the Protocol states that the customs duties levied by the UK on goods moving from GB to Northern Ireland will not be remitted to the Union. It further clarifies that the UK Government will be able to reimburse duties levied in respect of goods brought into Northern Ireland, waive or reimburse customs debt as well as "compensate undertakings to offset the impact" (in accordance with the EU's state aid rules). However, the Protocol does not go into detail on what that means in practical terms. It is important to note that these arrangements do not currently apply when goods are imported into or exported out of the UK nor was it something that was part of the no-deal planning. In fact, it is not part of standard border procedures anywhere in the world. Duties can be reimbursed only under certain specific conditions and in a very limited number of cases. Since this is not an existing procedure, the UK Government needs to outline the conditions and scope of these reimbursements as well as set out the associated procedures. How will such waivers or reimbursements work? Given that cash flow is a key issue for many smaller companies, these details will be important.
The above points are areas that the Protocol failed to clarify, either because a deliberate decision was taken to delegate that work to the Joint Committee or because this level of detail had not been considered. The implementation of the new border in the Irish Sea will also require dealing with a range of other challenges. Among them, just like on other UK borders, will be questions around port capacity, the need for additional infrastructure and staff and the availability of logistics services providers.

Home > All Services > Housing > Student or Shared Housing > Applying for a Licence for a House in Multiple Occupation (HMO)
Applying for a Licence for a House in Multiple Occupation (HMO)
Landlords may need a licence to let a House in Multiple Occupation (HMO) - a rented property with shared facilities.
Does an HMO need a licence?
An HMO must be licenced if it is occupied by five or more people who form more than one household.
Making the application
Application to license a house in multiple occupation
Application to renew a licence for a house in multiple occupation
A number of certificates will need to accompany the application form:-
Landlord's Gas Safety Certificate
Design, Installation and Commissioning Certificates for the L2 Fire alarm system and/or test certificate
Emergency Lighting Test Certificate
Service contract for alarm and fire systems
Periodic test certificate for the electrical installation
Portable appliance test certificates (if applicable)
Building Regulations completion certificate (if applicable)
Current tenancy agreements
A licence will normally last for five years.
Granting an HMO Licence
We will assess the applications and certificates and consider:-
the suitability of the HMO for the number of tenants
the suitability of room sizes
kitchen, bathroom and toilets facilities
whether the proposed licence holder is a fit and proper person
what the management arrangements are.
Licence conditions for an HMO
The licence will have conditions attached which will relate to:-
producing an annual gas safety certificate,
making sure all electrical equipment and furniture that you supply is safe,
installing smoke alarms and making sure they work properly – see 'A Guide to Fire and Security Protection in Multi-Occupied Residential Properties',
giving tenants a copy of the statement of terms for living in the HMO.
Additional conditions may relate to:-
standard of facilities,
management of the HMO,
how you deal with tenant behaviour.
All these conditions are to make sure you maintain your HMO to a good standard and manage it well. If you disagree with any conditions that have been set, you can appeal to a Residential Property Tribunal.
When changes happen to an HMO
As a landlord, you should be aware that the circumstances at your HMO might change in any of the following ways:-
the house is no longer in multiple occupation
your tenant has allowed more people to live there than the HMO licence allows
the licence holder is no longer suitable - fit and proper - to hold a licence
the management is no longer suitable to manage an HMO
you want to change the HMO licence holder
the HMO is no longer suitable to be considered an HMO
you want to change the HMO to occupation by a single household
you want to sell the property.
Some of these changes may be the result of the Council's decisions. Others may happen because of decisions taken by you or your tenants.
If you plan to make changes then you must tell the Council. It may need to change the conditions of your licence, cancel it, or give you a different type of licence.
Licence fees 2020/21
Licence application fee (for up to five bedrooms) £610.50
Licence application fee for a member of the North Staffordshire Landlord Accreditation Scheme. £510.50
Additional fee for each extra bedroom £8
Renewal of existing licence (for up to five bedrooms) £451.50
Renewal of existing licence fee for a member of the North Staffordshire Landlord Accreditation Scheme £351.50
Please note that if a licence applicant doesn't maintain their accreditation status but re-joins at the point of a licence renewal application, the discount will not apply.
Penalties for not having a licence
If a HMO is of a description which should be licensed but is not, it will be an offence to allow it to be occupied. If the appropriate person (owner, agent) is convicted of operating a HMO without a licence, they can be prosecuted and the Council can apply to the Residential Property Tribunal to have any housing benefit repaid and occupiers can apply to have rent repaid.
When an HMO licence is refused
If the licence is refused you can appeal to a Residential Property Tribunal.
If an application is refused, the Council will make an interim management order which will enable it to take over management of the HMO. They can do so for a maximum of 12 months.
If, at the end of the 12 months, a licence still can't be granted, the Council must make a final management order. The final order puts in place long-term management for the HMO, which can last a maximum of five years. You can appeal against the making of an interim or a final management order through a Residential Property Tribunal.

We are immersed in a culture of spoken media, written media, and – like it or not – screen media. Just as writing and speaking skills are keys to functioning in society, we must consider that the future increasingly demands proficiency in "mediating" as well. Doing anything less leaves this powerful medium in the hands of a relative few. By offering instruction in what screen media is, how it is created, how it relates to other literacies, how the internet is changing it, and how this all informs everyday teaching and learning, the Rosebud Institute seeks to make screen media literacy more broadly understood and accessible. This chapter follows a program developed by the Rosebud Institute and looks at how – using simple, accessible technology – people can become more screen media literate by creating digital films and ePortfolios themselves. Developed along with Rosebud's program manager, Christine Wells, the creation process enables deeper, more authentic learning, allowing us all to communicate more effectively, to self assess more reflectively, and to thrive in a screen-based world.
Have you looked at a screen today? You may of course be reading this text on paper, but chances are growing ever stronger that you may well be looking at a screen right now as you read this chapter. In many cases, it seems not that big of a deal. After all, it is simply words on a page and the medium of delivery may not be all that crucial. Inverting the classic phrase of communication scholar Marshall McLuhan for a moment, the medium does not really seem to alter or affect the message all that much in this particular case. Or does it?
With the tectonic media shift in which we find ourselves, the lines we think we know, and think we can count on, seem to be blurring. The myriad machinations and goings on in our convergent media world, while a fascinating and rich topic, understandably extend beyond the scope of this chapter. Rather the focus here is to look more at what we can do now. Now that the explosive growth and pervasive penetration of new media is upon us, what can we do to get a firmer grip on the reins? How can we go beyond handing out expensive devices designed to simply access the conversation, and instead convey real skills that allow more people to effectively join in, to make clear meaning, and to affect the change they seek?
One way is to take a step back – get back to basics a bit and begin to give people some simple tools that they can use to more effectively be a part of the burgeoning world of what is happening on screens around the world. As mentioned, you may be looking at a screen right now but if not, you have probably looked at one if not several already today and most certainly – unless you make a concerted effort to the contrary – you will be bombarded with screen images all day, telling you what to do, what to think, what to like – even what to say.
This ever-expanding world of screen-based electronic media encompasses such an understandably and incredibly broad array of media types, paradigms, and histories that even finding a name or term to refer to it all can prove difficult. For our purposes here, we prefer the term screen media. It is a term we are becoming more and more comfortable with to specifically describe media produced, created for, and unfolding on the screen yet it is general enough to encompass a broad array of different media, both moving (film, video, television, and gaming) as well as those which are generally more static (websites, social media, blogs). As mentioned, this chapter has a necessarily refined scope. We will look at a very practical and doable approach to giving people a baseline way to become more active and informed members of a screen media world. Interestingly, it is in this more simple approach that the potential becomes highly expansive, giving people the tools to literally go wherever they want, much like the effect of teaching a person to write or to read.
But what people or persons are we talking about? Who is this for? To say everyone may well elicit a raised eyebrow or two but literally, screen media literacy is so crucial that virtually everyone will need some baseline understanding of what it is and how it works. This is not a new concept of course. The term media literacy has been around since the 1970's and in 1988, one of the most relevant and enduring quotes comes from a former president of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, Ernest Boyer: "It is no longer enough to simply read and write. Students must also become literate in the understanding of visual images" (Boyer, 1988). What is new however, is how far-reaching and therefore undeniable the screen has become. If screen media is virtually everywhere, then its literacy is in demand virtually everywhere if we are to have an informed and literate public. "The ability to both read and write visual information; the ability to learn visually; to think and solve problems in the visual domain—will, as the information revolution evolves, become a requirement for success in business and in life." (Gray, 2008) That said, keeping our sites on achievable goals and not biting off more than is manageable, the immediate audience addressed mostly herein are students and educators – both in a K-12 environment and in post-secondary education as well.


Debbie and I went to Newton's Table with Florence, Peter and Gail.
As you enter the restaurant, the greeting station is straight ahead. To the right there is a bar with an L-shaped bar and high stools.
The main dining room is to the left. It has an interesting combination of seat arrangements. At the far side of the dining room is a banquette with a number of tables, 2s and 4s, which could be moved together. Set up on the other side of the dining room are two wood tables, one of which handles up to ten people and the second which holds up to eight. There are a few rounds that can seat 4 or 5, and the rest are squares of 2 and 4. At a regular seating, the restaurant seats 78, but for special parties it has seated as many as 95.
One of the reasons that Florence and Peter suggested Newton's is that the noise level in the restaurant is quite muted. In so many restaurants, having a reasonably voiced conversation with the others in your party is a task, because the restaurant is so noisy overall. The ceiling and the floor at Newtons's are covered in material designed to absorb sound.
Gail and Florence shared a green salad. Debbie did not order a starter, but she "snacked" on the Rosemary Parmesan Fries that Peter ordered and the Beet salad that I ordered.
Debbie and Florence had Softshell Crabs, sautéed, garlic-scallion fried rice, summer vegetables, soy vinaigrette. Gail ordered Pan-seared Rockfish, plantain puree, guajillo chile sauce, avocado salsa, crispy tortilla strips.
Peter and I ordered Fuzu, rice noodles, snow peas, carrots, onions, bean sprouts, eggs, chicken, shrimp, scallops, sweet and spicy soy sauce, black sesame seeds, crispy shallots, scallions.
For dessert, we shared an Apricot Crumble and Chocolate Crunch.
Jason, our server, was particularly good. He recited the specials of the day, of which there were a number, as well as the detail of some of the more complicated items on the menu. He did so with ease and without a note. His level of attention to us was just right.
Upon entering the men's room your eye is immediately caught by the colors; yellow/gold, bright blue, and yellow/tan. Immediately to the right is a large square, white wall-hanging washbasin with a mirror above. Directly opposite the washbasin, on the wall, is a large, brightly colored, cartoonish "painting." To the left of the wash basin is a partial bright blue metal wall, open at floor and ceiling, and then a wall-hanging white ceramic urinal. To the left of the urinal is a closed- in commode area. The bright blue wall and door are open at the bottom and top. The walls are painted yellow gold and the floor is covered by large yellow/tan tiles.

El Northrop Beta fue un monoplano deportivo, monomotor, totalmente metálico y de ala baja, construido en 1931.

Diseño y desarrollo
El Beta 3 fue un biplaza con un motor lineal Menasco Buccaneer de 160 hp (119 kW). El primer avión, registrado NX963Y (más tarde NC963Y) se estrelló en California. El segundo avión (Beta 3D), N12224, fue construido como monoplaza y equipado con un motor radial Pratt & Whitney Wasp Jr. de 300 hp (224 kW), y se convirtió en el primer avión con esa potencia en rebasar los 322 km/h (200 mph). Sólo dos fueron construidos.

El avión fue volado a Wichita para que la compañía hermana Stearman Aircraft lo usara como demostrador, pero con la pobre economía de la época, ninguno fue vendido. El avión fue revendido a un adinerado piloto en Nueva York y, durante su entrega, pasó por Wright Field para permitir un examen completo por los ingenieros del Cuerpo Aéreo del Ejército, ya que dicho Cuerpo todavía usaba obsoletos biplanos.

Después de ser volado rara vez durante 1932, el avión fue vendido a un nuevo propietario, que lo mantuvo en Roosevelt Field hasta que volcó en un aeropuerto cercano. El avión fue reparado en la fábrica Stearman en Wichita y usado como plataforma de pruebas experimental para varios diseños de flaps, hasta que se estrelló a causa de un fallo estructural del ala, el 4 de mayo de 1934.
