Этот список космических телескопов (астрономических обсерваторий в космосе), сгруппированный по основным диапазонам частот: Гамма-излучение, Рентгеновское излучение, Ультрафиолетовое излучение, Видимое излучение, Инфракрасное излучение, Микроволновое излучение и Радиоизлучение. Телескопы, работающие в различных частотных диапазонах, включены во всех соответствующих разделах. Космические телескопы, которые собирают частицы, такие как ядра атомов или электроны, а также инструменты, направленные на обнаружение гравитационных волн, тоже перечислены. Миссии, работающие в пределах нашей Солнечной системы, включая Землю, другие планеты в нашей системе и наше Солнце, не включены;

Два значения предназначены для высоты орбиты. Для телескопов на околоземной орбите, высота задается в километрах; для телескопов на солнечной орбите, высота задается в астрономических единиц (а. е.). Два значения, соответственно, минимальное расстояние (перицентра) и максимальное расстояние (апоцентра) между телескопом и центр масс тел его орбиты.

Гамма-излучение

Гамма-телескопы собирают и измеряют высокоэнергическое гамма-излучение от астрофизических источников. Оно поглощается атмосферой, поэтому, чтобы вести наблюдения требуются высотные аэростаты или космические полёты. Гамма-лучи излучаются сверхновыми, нейтронными звёздами, пульсарами и чёрными дырами. Гамма-всплески, с очень высокими энергиями, были также обнаружены, но до сих пор не изучены .

Рентгеновское излучение

Рентгеновские телескопы воспринимают поток фотонов высоких энергий, именуемый рентгеновским излучением. Оно сильно поглощается атмосферой, а это означает, может наблюдаться только высоко в атмосфере или в космосе. Несколько типов астрофизических объектов испускают рентгеновские лучи: Скопление галактик, чёрные дыры, Активные ядра галактик, остатки сверхновых, звёзды, звёзды в паре с белым карликом (катастрофические переменные звёзды), нейтронной звездой или чёрной дырой (рентгеновские двойные). Некоторые объекты Солнечной системы испускают рентгеновские лучи, в том числе и Луна, хотя большая часть рентгеновского излучения Луны возникает от отражённого солнечного рентгеновского излучения.

Ультрафиолетовое излучение

Ультрафиолетовые телескопы изучают небо в ультрафиолетовом диапазоне длин волн, то есть примерно между 10 и 320 нм. Свет на этих длинах волн поглощается атмосферой Земли, поэтому наблюдения на этих длинах волн могут быть выполнены из верхних слоев атмосферы или из космоса Объекты излучающие ультрафиолетовое излучения включают Солнце, другие звёзды и галактики.

Видимое излучение

Самая старая форма астрономии, оптическая или видимого света астрономия простирается примерно от 400 до 700 нм. Позиционирование оптического телескопа в космосе означает, что телескоп не видит атмосферных помех, обеспечивая получение более высокого разрешения. Оптические телескопы используются для наблюдения звезд, галактик, планетарных туманностей и протопланетных дисков, среди многих других вещей.

Инфракрасное излучение

Инфракрасный свет имеет меньшую энергию, чем видимый свет, следовательно, испускают его более холодные объекты. Таким образом, можно рассматривать в инфракрасном свете: холодные звезды (в том числе коричневые карлики), туманности, и очень далекие галактики

Микроволновое излучение

На сверхвысоких частотах фотонов достаточно, но они имеют очень низкую энергию, поэтому они должны быть сильно сконцентрированы. На этих частотах может быть измерен космический микроволновый фон, эффект Сюняева-Зельдовича, а также синхротронное и тормозное излучение от нашей собственной галактики.

Радиоизлучение

Так как атмосфера прозрачна для радиоволн, радиотелескопы в космосе наиболее полезны для интерферометрии со сверхдлинной базой. Проведение одновременных наблюдений источника как со спутниковых, так и с наземных телескопов путём сопоставления их сигналов дает возможность для имитации радиотелескопа размером с расстояние между двумя телескопами. Наблюдают остатки сверхновой, мазеры, гравитационное линзирование, звездообразования в галактиках и многое другое.

Детекторы частиц

Космические аппараты и космические модули для регистрации частиц наблюдают за космическими лучами и электронами, испускаемыми Солнцем (Солнечные космические лучи), нашей Галактикой (галактические космические лучи) и внегалактическими источниками. Также наблюдаются потоки космических лучей ультра-высоких энергий из активных галактических ядер.

Гравитационные волны
Этот новый тип телескопа будет принимать гравитационные волны — рябь в пространстве-времени, порождённую сталкивающимися нейтронными звёздами и чёрными дырами.

Exploring local history, from the ground down
Sections: News By Will Grandbois Published Jan. 18, 2018
Rocks talk to Garry Zabel, and he's looking forward to sharing their stories.
"If you pick up a rock that has a ripple, it's telling you something," he said. "Every type of rock has characteristics that geologists know how to read."
A professor emeritus at Colorado Mountain College, Zabel is perhaps best known for the field trips he leads to Utah and Arizona. As part of the ongoing Naturalist Nights speaker series, however, he's preparing to tackle geology closer to home with a presentation at the Third Street Center at 5:30 p.m. Jan. 24 and the next day in Aspen.
The Grand Canyon follows the basic tenant of superposition — the idea that layers get progressively older as you go down — and is comparatively easy to read.
"Everything's horizontal and laid out for you," Zabel said. "Here, it's a little more difficult."
That's perhaps best illustrated by the fact that, while Zabel's talk will range from the bottom of the Glenwood Canyon to the Grottos area above Aspen, it actually begins and ends in the same formation.
The way, way back
That Precambrian granite, schist and gneiss (geologists have plenty of puns and jokes based on those names) in both places are some of the oldest rocks visible anywhere in the state, having been deposited a billion years before all but the simplest fossils. Between that and the next oldest local layers is a massive gap in time — an unconformity — in which anything that may have been deposited has long since eroded away.
Even so, the Sawatch Sandstone you'll see next was deposited more than 500 million years ago, making it twice as old as the dinosaurs. From there, the layers record the rise and fall of water levels.
"What we're seeing in the sedimentary rocks is oceans coming and going," Zabel explained.
The Leadville Limestone, for instance, was formed of the shells of tiny sea creatures around 300 million years ago. Made mostly of calcium carbonate, it dissolves in water and can get deposited elsewhere, creating caves like the Glenwood Caverns and travertine formations like at Hanging Lake.
Perhaps more significant for Carbondalians, however, is what happened when mountains began to rise and those seas dried up. Left behind was a salty layer that eventually formed into gypsum — the Eagle Valley Evaporite. It's that white, crumbly rock you see at the corner of Snowmass and Main or on the back side of River Valley Ranch. It's an ingredient in drywall, and like limestone, it dissolves in water — but with very different consequences.
The Carbondale collapse
"Geologists mapping the area recognized that there's a lot of salt type minerals dissolved within the springs," Zabel observed. "So they went to the bar and wondered where it was coming from."
As it turns out, that layer of gypsum has been slowly dissolving away from Glenwood to Basalt, working large scale changes in the landscape. Based on the angle of the basalt layers underneath most of Missouri Heights (which were laid down more or less flat around 10 million years ago, enough rock has been eaten away to bring the elevation in some places down as much as 3,000 feet. And the process is ongoing.
"Between Carbondale and Cattle Creek, the density of sinkholes is higher than anywhere else in the state," Zabel said.
Those small-scale impacts are most pronounced where the Eagle Valley Evaporite is relatively near the surface, like at the foot of White Hill or on the northern end of the CRMS property. In many parts of the mid valley, however, at least one more layer sits on top of the gypsum: the Maroon Formation.
Named and best known for the Maroon Bells, it's the same reddish sandstone on Red Hill and shares a story with Fisher Towers and Red Rocks. After the Ancestral Rocky Mountains had dried up the sea in between, a series of intermittent streams and alluvial fans set to work eroding the mountains into the plains on either side. In the geologic record, long gone mountains are marked by absence and mapped by ranges in what was deposited around them.
Making mountains
While the Maroon Formation is the last layer under Carbondale itself, there are plenty of newer rocks nearby. Some would be familiar to Utah geologists: the Chinle Formation, Entrada Sandstone, Morrison Formation and Dakota Sandstone and Mancos Shale — another series of beaches, rivers and seas. The Mesaverde Formation in this area was formed by a swampy delta on the scale of the Mississippi and contains the coal that drew folks to Redstone and Spring Gulch. Tipped on its side and more resistant to weathering, it forms the Grand Hogback — a ridgeline extending from McClure Pass up toward Steamboat Springs that marks the geographic western edge of the Rocky Mountains.
The current crop of Rockies began their rise around 80 million years ago, as some of the last dinosaurs were walking the earth. There are still a few sedimentary layers after that, like the Green River Formation — a blueish "oil shale" with variations so fine you can track the seasons.
Around 30 million years ago, as series of massive bubbles of magma formed under the surface, cooled, and weathered into prominent mountains like Sopris, Capitol and Treasure. In the process, they "cooked" the rocks around them, turning limestone into marble and gypsum into alabaster, among other changes.
It's worth noting that Sopris is not, strictly speaking, a volcano. The granite that it's made of forms underground. Basalt, by contrast, cools on the surface — like the aforementioned 10 million year old layer in Missouri Heights and Basalt Mountain itself.
The last big force to shape the Valley were the glaciers, which carved bowls in mountains and scraped lines in the walls of the grottos. In a sort of inversion of superposition, the downcutting of successively smaller glaciers means that the oldest evidence is high up (a noticeable natural berm or "recessional moraine" cutting across the valley by the Airport Business Center, for instance). Carbondale itself was below the roughly 7,500 foot cutoff for glacial activity, but owes its gravel base and terracing (the drop on the east end of town toward Delaney Park is probably the best example) to the meltwaters.
You won't learn everything there is about local geology from a presentation or a newspaper article, or remember it if you did. But, as Zabel often points out to his classes, if you can recognize one formation, you can find yourself in geologic time.
"It brings a whole new perspective of the earth," he said. "This is our home, we ought to understand it."

Greece has taken the lead over its rival Spain in terms of tourism performance in the first half of the year, according to the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), which points to July as the best month so far.
The UNWTO barometer found that total tourism-related revenues grew by 14.2 percent year-on-year in July 2017 against the corresponding month of 2016 despite per capital spending remaining at modest levels, up by a mere 1.1 percent against 2016's figures.
The number of arrivals also increased by 13 percent in the first half of 2017, compared to the same period in 2016.
Indicatively, rival Spain saw its revenues increase in July by 12.5 percent year-on-year and the number of arrivals up by 11.6 percent, slightly behind Greece.

According to the same report, global destinations welcomed an additional about 36 million international tourists in the first half of 2017 – a total of 598 million – compared to the same period in 2016, with the first half of 2017 marking a 6 percent increase in international arrivals and the most dynamic period since 2010.
Regions recording the largest growth are the Middle East up by 9 percent, Europe and Africa up by 8 percent with the most travel carried out in July and August.
In relevant news, the UNWTO awarded Greece with the "Best Video in Europe" prize last week for "Greece – A 365-day Destination" video.
Greece has also for the first time been elected to the UNWTO Executive Council for the 2018-2021 period.

your right it is possible to make it work esp. if you have the help of family/ friends. My family freaked when I told them but they have been so good about helping me and my son. My dad even arranged it so Ethan is on his insurance plan so I dont have to get gov. insurance or buy my own. it is hard yes but it is possible. i get childsupport money from ethan's dad who went out and found a job after got pregnant and I am going to be starting work in the next couple of weeks. once you find out if you are pregnant the first thing you need to do is get medical treatment and the second thing you need to do is tell your parents, you may need to tell them first if you need them to get med. treatment. goodluck at the clinic tomorrow, i hope everything works out the way it is supposed to.
Before you decide you need to know whether you are not. If you look deep inside your heart you will already know what you want. What you really want is the ideal mummy, daddy, baby, house, toys etc. Reality darling is somewhat different. You will have to rely on family for support. You will struggle for money. You won't be able to have the life of a 16 year old. No-one can tell you what to do sweetheart. If you are pregnant it is a fantastic thing. I am the mother of two children, Chloe who is nearly five and my baby Emily who would have been one year old. Sadly she pa__sed away less than a week old. If you think that you can provide your baby with what it needs if you are pregnant, then you will be OK. As long as you are sure inside your heart that you can do this - you will be able to. Good luck honey.

A federal grand jury has returned a new indictment in the death of a 5-year-old girl, charging both her soldier father and her stepmother with murder.
Spc. Naeem Williams, 26, still faces the possibility of the death penalty if he is convicted on either of two counts of first-degree felony murder, U.S. Attorney Edward Kubo Jr. said yesterday.
The "superseding indictment" replaces a previous indictment against only the father.
Williams' 22-year-old wife, Delilah, now faces one count of first-degree felony murder. If convicted, she would face the possibility of life imprisonment. The new indictment also charges Delilah Williams with assaulting her stepdaughter, Talia Williams, with a dangerous weapon.
Finally, the new indictment charges the couple with conspiring to obstruct justice by removing Talia's blood from the walls and floors of their residence at Wheeler Army Air Field.
Talia was pronounced dead July 16, 2005, at Wahiawa General Hospital.
Emergency room doctors said she died of "blunt head trauma due to battered child syndrome" shortly after she arrived. The doctors said the girl had bruises on her arms, chest, knees and thighs and a cut on her back.
According to court documents, Delilah Williams has said her husband struck Talia with a belt because she had wet herself, and when he found out she had wet herself again, he struck her again, and she fell, hitting her head on the floor.
The decision to seek the death penalty was made by U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales.
Hawaii has no death penalty, but the Schofield Barracks soldier will be tried in the state under the federal death penalty law, U.S. Attorney Marshall Silverberg has said.

The Relationship between Enteral Nutrition Formula Composition, Feeding Tube Placement Site, and the Start of Enteral Feedings on the Development of Ventilator Associated Event in an Adult Intensive Care Unit
Jessica AlexanderFollow
Ashley Depriest
Barbara Hopkins
Anita Nucci
Background: Ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) is a major cause of morbidity, longer intensive care unit (ICU) stay, increased duration of mechanical ventilation, and increased healthcare cost in critically ill patients. Critically ill patients are at increased risk for malnutrition, which is associated with impaired immune function, impaired ventilator drive and weakened respiratory muscles. Malnutrition has been thought to increase the risk of VAP due to bacterial translocation from the gastrointestinal tract to the lungs. Previous research that has evaluated the effect of enteral nutrition on malnutrition associated with VAP has been inconsistent in part because of the subjectivity of the old definition of VAP. In 2013, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) developed a new definition for the diagnosis of VAP, which includes three tiers of a ventilator associated event (VAE); ventilator associated condition, infection-related ventilator-associated complication, or possible or probable VAP). The purpose of this study is to retrospectively examine the relationship between enteral formula, tube-feeding placement site, time of tube feeding initiation and the incidence of VAE using this new CDC definition.
Objective: The aim of the study was to retrospectively examine the relationship between enteral formula, tube-feeding placement site, time of tube feeding initiation and the incidence of VAE using this new CDC definition.
Participants/setting: The medical records of 162 adult patients admitted to one of the ICUs (Medical ICU, Surgical ICU, Neurological ICU, Burn ICU) at Grady Memorial Hospital (GMH) in Atlanta, GA in 2013
Main outcome measures: Demographic and baseline medical characteristics including the type of enteral formula used (standard, immune-modulating, hydrolyzed, immune-modulating and hydrolyzed, or mixed), enteral tube feeding placement (gastric or small bowel), and timing of enteral nutrition (never fed, fed48 hours after admission) were collected.
Statistical analysis: Demographic and baseline medical characteristics were described using frequency statistics and compared by VAE status using the Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis tests. The relationship between tube placement, enteral formula, timing of feeding and the diagnosis of a VAE was evaluated using the Chi-square test.
Results: In 2013, 81 patients admitted to the ICU at GMH were diagnosed with a VAE. The median age of the study population (n=162) was 50 years (range, 19 to 88 years) and the median BMI was 27.6 kg/m2 (range, 13.2 to 83.2 kg/m2). The majority of the population was African American (53.1%) and male (64.2%). Most patients were fed through a gastric tube (86.4%), were given an immune-modulating enteral formula (32.1%) and were fed after 48 hours of admission (44.4%). After subdividing by ICU location, 12 of 14 patients (86%) in the Medical ICU who were diagnosed with a VAE were either never fed or fed >48 hours after admission vs. 7 of 13 (54%) of patients in the Medical ICU who were not diagnosed with a VAE (p=0.031). No other relationships between the type of feeding initiation, tube placement, and enteral formula were found by VAE status for the population or by ICU location.
Conclusion: Adults admitted to the Medical ICU may have a reduced risk of developing a VAE if fed within 48 hours of admission. The type of enteral formula provided and the route of administration was not associated with the diagnosis of VAE. Future prospective studies should include all critical care patients to further evaluate the effect of nutrition on VAE outcome.

abort and resume, assembler
by sachin thakur
Hi, Thanks for your inputs.. I have one more querry... 1. I am trying to implement abort and resume (section 7.6.3). After reading the spec my understanding is that when a abort key sequence is pressed the currently running program should halt and control should transfer to the command interpreter. But the openfirmware process model is single-threaded and there is only one, non-preempted program running at a time. So when a program is running how can i detect the abort key sequence? 2. I am trying to implement forth word for the Assembler mentioned In Open Firmware spec., section 7.3.9.3. According to this section user should be able to create machine-level code definition from the command interpreter. My doubt is how forth inner-interpreter will identify the machine dependent assembly mnemonics? Whether Assembler would be invoked to parse the machine level code entered from the command interpreter? In this case, Assembler should be the part of the boot firmware?

Yes, look at the handling of "last". Variables in forth are just normal words that push the address of the memory associated with them to the stack. You can use this with the normal forth-c-bindings If you publish a patch of your work people here can likely help you.
tokenizer bug

As we spoke, I'm giving you some additional detail to describe the bug I found. Here's a recap of what I wrote before: It has to do with fload ; When your source fload s a file, that file is supposed to be a continuation of your source-stream. New definitions, as they are processed in the Tokenizer, are supposed to get successive FCode tokens assigned to them, starting at 0x0800. But when the OpenBios Tokenizer fload s a new file, it resets the FCode token-number, and starts assigning tokens from 0x0800 again. So if you have: definition A definition B definition C definition D \ and then fload File1 \ which has: definition E definition F definition G definition H and then you have something that intends to invoke A B C or D you will instead get E F G or H , respectively.... Here's the additional material: The source of the problem can be traced to the routines: init_stream and init_output in the file stream.c . They are both called at the beginning of tokenization, one to prepare the source from which input will be scanned, and the other to prepare the area to which output will be delivered (broadly speaking). When the fload directive is encountered, the input source is suspended and a new one is activated; when the new one is exhausted, the previous one is re-activated at the point from which it was suspended. So far so good. The init_stream routine is called to effectuate that activation. Unfortunately, the line that initializes the FCode token-numbers being assigning to new definitions -- the variable called nextfcode -- occurs inside the init_stream routine. I believe that moving that line to the init_output routine is sufficient to fix this bug.
cpeek, wpeek etc
Hi all I am trying to implement the words mentioned in section 5.3.7.1 of open firmware specification viz. cpeek, wpeek etc. For this I have already implemented exception handling, which is in C and assembly. Now to implement these words I need to create some flags (variables) which can be accessed from both forth and C. Is there any way by which I can access the same variable from both c and forth. Kindly tell me the solution. Regards Sachin

And twerk, two, three, four… the dance craze taking over gyms across the country
Nilufer AtikMonday 18 Nov 2013 6:00 am
Miley Cyrus struts her stuff at the MTV Video Music Awards with Robin Thicke (Picture: Neilson Barnard/Getty Images)
Miley Cyrus got tongues wagging when she thrust her thong-clad buttocks back and forth at the Video Music Awards in August.
But there might be some method to her madness. The dance craze, known as twerking, that she brazenly displayed on stage doesn't just get the fellas wide-eyed, it's great for body-sculpting, too.
Burning an impressive 600 calories an hour, the popular hip hop move has now been launched as a workout at gyms nationwide. And I was desperate to try it.
I have never been shy when it comes to busting a few moves on the dance floor. I mastered one hip hop dance move, the superman, with ease after downing flaming sambucas at a friend's wedding. I even did it gangnam style at my boyfriend's work do last year. So twerking would be no problem. Or would it?
The 50-minute class is made up of choreographed moves to firm up the thighs and buttocks as well as boost cardio fitness. It starts with a five- minute warm-up to some r'n'b and then the twerking begins.
There are three signature moves – the 'shake', which involves shaking the butt from side to side as though on a power plate, the 'wobble', where you rotate the butt while thrusting the hips forwards and back, and the 'jiggle', which isthe traditional twerk move: jerking the butt back and forth in a squatting position.
My class starts with some basic stretching and hip rotations. Within ten minutes we were in full swing. I tried my best to follow the steps and just about managed. But then came the twerking.
Twerking has become the workout of choice
in gyms across the country (Picture: Gadmasta)
'You have to get into a semi-squat position, then put your hands beneath your hips,' explained instructor Ella. 'Then pull your elbows back and push your bum back, then thrust it under and forwards.'
It sounds easy but when the speed intensified, things went a bit wrong. I began pushing out when I should have been thrusting, turning to my left when I should have been turning right. I even thrust side to side a few times and knocked over the frightened housewife beside me.
Don't panic if you're not much of a mover, though. The more you practise, the stronger your glutes and legs get so the easier it becomes. Twerking is also a great workout for the core, because you have to thrust your bum back and then your pelvis under, which is like a stand-up abdominal crunch.
'The main twerking move involves isolating the hips and getting your pelvis to either move your butt forwards or backwards on the beat,' explains Dave Kyle, head trainer at Les Mills, which is relaunching its nationwide BodyJam class as the new Twerkout this month.
'This can be done standing but it's usually done in a wide stance, like a squat. Other variations include circling the hips, figure eights and shaking side to side. The more you work, the more you burn.'
London's Gymbox chain has also launched a 45-minute Twerk It Out class. Described as 'an aerobics- style class with a sexy mix of dynamic dance choreography', it's already proving a big hit.
The classes attract mainly women but there are a few brave men. They cater for all fitness levels, so you can take things at your own pace or do easier versions of the exercises. I definitely felt my thighs burning and my tummy contracting during my twerkout. It may take a bit of getting used to but if you want a pert butt for Christmas, do it the Miley way.
For your nearest twerking class, go to Les Mills or Gymbox.
Jay-Z and Beyonce perform Crazy In Love (Picture: AP Photo/Kevork Djansezian)
TWERKING: THE ORIGINS
Miley Cyrus may be the princess of twerking but Beyoncé's the queen. The songstress (pictured with Jay Z) treated us all to her bouncing derriere in the Crazy In Love video back in 2003, when Miley was still in pop socks.
And while the dance trend might still be new to some, it's been a part of hip hop culture for the past 20 years. Twerking (which is a combination of the words 'twist,' 'twitch' and 'work') originated in the New Orleans bounce scene (a form of hip hop) in 1993.
The first reference to it in a song was in 1993 in DJ Jubilee's Do The Jubilee All, in which he tells the crowd to, 'Twerk baby, twerk baby, twerk, twerk, twerk'.
In 1995, New Orleans-based Cheeky Blakk rapped about it in the bounce music hit Twerk Something and, in 2001, Bubba Sparxxx's debut album, Dark Days, Bright Nights, featured the track Twerk A Little.
Many other artists have been inspired by the craze over the years, including Usher and Justin Timberlake, whose No.1 hit SexyBack features the line, 'Let me see what ya twerkin' with'.
The growing popularity of twerking among the public became evident in 2009, when three teenage girls from Atlanta uploaded a video of themselves bouncing their buttocks in time to Soulja Boy's Donk on YouTube. It received more than a million views in one week.
The movements involved in twerking show similarities to several traditional West African dances, most notably mapouka, which hails from the Côte d'Ivoire. It is known colloquially as 'dance of the behind' and has existed for centuries.

Good to know! I'm a member but I have yet to order anything yet. I had looked at one potential purchase but the shipping was as much as the item, so I didn't bother. They do often carry some very top-notch gear though.
Thanks for stopping by and adding your input Dave! It is always appreciated!
I have a list of people who have yet to buy as well… aside from that, I like the look of those vasques. I bought a pair for my daughter that are incredibly great for her. Can't wait to hear about them!
I agree! They look great on as well, better than I actually thought they would. They are also surprisingly light and rugged! I am very impressed with them so far! I've taken them out for a short hike over the weekend and I'm planning a longer one this weekend so expect a field test review with pictures some time next week. Not sure which day yet but I'll let you know!
Thanks for stopping by and adding your input Paulo! It is always appreciated!
Thanks for stopping by and adding your input Adam! It is always appreciated!
Understand they moved the warehouse from Portland to Brooklyn, NY. Cain't wait for the Attorney General of State of New York to sink his teeth into The Clymb.
Same exact situation. Item was ordered on Nov 18th and according to Fed Ex I will be receiving it on December 20th.
Does it really take that long to process an order, put a pair of gloves in a box and ship it off?
Following 3.5 weeks I sent an email questioning the order and was sent back an apology email regarding the time that was very much a form letter. In other words, they have to send out that letter quite a bit.
They can process the money fast enough. The money came out of my account on Nov. 14th, with a delivery date set for Dec. 8th and we still have no shoes. The order was suppose to be sent to my son, who is in college. He is now planning on coming home for the holidays for 5 days with no idea if they are finally going to be delivered with no one around to get them. Thank goodness it wasn't a Christmas gift or I would have S.O.L. The real kicker, they won't answer a phone and apparently not an e-mail either. I don't care how cheap they are, I can't imagine ordering from them again.
long shipping ,just ok prices , terrible cust service!! why take a chance, try backcounry, evo, or cleansnipe!!!! try sending something back/LOL.
I wonder how much, if any, the green shipping has to do with the long shipping time. I think it's worth the wait, but then again, I'm an extremely patient person.

New Music Of The Day: Nilufer Yanya – Hey (Pixies Cover)
Matt Wilkinson Jun 2, 2016 4:57 pm BST
Still something of a new prospect (even for this blog), Nilufer Yanya's cover of Pixies 'Hey' is too good to ignore. Recorded by Bullion for a recent covers album on his label DEEK Records, it's almost entirely flab-free, with her rich voice eating away at Black Francis' perverse lyrics.
A Londoner from a big Turkish family, here those words suddenly become a much more vibrant, tactful proposition. Like 2016's other great new soul star in waiting Jorja Smith, Yanya's downtrodden style is compelling rather than try-hard, here acting as something of a punchbag for Francis' proclamations, rather than a perpetrator.
Although melodically it doesn't stray too far from the original (some new jazzy chords are added in the chorus, a nice touch), where the cover truly comes alive is in its subtlety. The jumpy backline strut of David Lovering and Kim Deal is completely ripped out, replaced with some beautiful, wandering guitar lines holding things together. Yanya was taught the instrument by Dave Okumu from The Invisible, a guy who must surely have picked up a thing or two when playing for Amy Winehouse (herself a master player), and you can see a little of her playing style here too, excitingly.
Yanya is clearly someone worth keeping an eye on. Check out the studio recording of 'Hey' above, and a session version she recorded for NTS below (with added synth from Jazzi).

The UK's recent referendum on European Union membership seems to have exposed deep fault lines in British society, if the strength of feeling shown in arguments on social media is anything to go by. I've certainly seen the normal rules of civilised conversation set aside, people on either side calling each other terrible things, and huge amounts of anger and discourtesy.
This tends to baffle 'Remain' voters who can't understand why the 'Leave' partisans aren't changing their minds, even though the claims made by the 'Leave' campaign about immigration and finances (on which presumably they based their decision) are rapidly being rowed back from or disavowed by the same politicians who were trumpeting them before the campaign. Why aren't the 'Leave' enthusiasts changing their minds in the light of the new information that's coming in daily?
Once we believe something, we pay more attention to and amplify any evidence that confirms our belief, and play down or ignore any evidence that refutes it. We like to be right about things, so we seek out the evidence that supports our feeling of being right.
Why does this happen? We're pattern-seeking organisms, always looking for connections that allow us to put together a coherent picture from the jumble of bits of information that our senses take in. And if there's no pattern out there in the data, our minds will supply one.
As a former hypnotherapist, I'm also aware of the recognised hypnotic phenomenon (or 'sign of trance') known as hallucination. When in a trance, hypnotic subjects sometimes see things that aren't there ('positive hallucination') or don't notice things that are there ('negative hallucination'). The same thing happens with supporting or disconfirming evidence.
You might say "Hang on, but people aren't usually in trances!" Or are they? If we define trance as a state in which you pay more attention to some things than others, when are we not in a trance? The great hypnotherapist Milton Erickson taught us that trance is a normal, everyday experience. Stephen Wolinsky's great book Trances People Live goes further, and suggests that we in one kind of trance or another most of the time. If you doubt this, remember the difficulty you have getting someone's attention when they are looking at their phone.
So once they've taken a position on a political question, people will filter out evidence that contradicts that position. If it looks like 'Brexiteers' and 'Remainers' (or 'liberals' and 'conservatives' in the USA) are seeing different worlds, it's because – subjectively – they are.
Practical implication: most of the facts and evidence you give people to argue them out of their views will be screened out, or they'll draw different conclusions from it than you do.
This is a principle identified by the leading researcher into the psychology of influence, Dr Robert Cialdini.
When someone has identified themselves as a 'Leave' voter (for example), they will feel an internal pressure to make their future actions conform with that identity. We like to be consistent – inconsistency is seen as an undesirable trait, associated with weakness, lying, and dishonesty.
Commitments are particularly powerful if they are made in public (e.g. the person changing their Facebook profile picture to an "I'm voting Leave" graphic, or arguing in favour of their choice in a discussion).
In line with confirmation bias, once the person has self-identified as a 'Leaver' and made a commitment to it, they will tend to screen out or reframe any evidence that suggests they were mistaken.
Practical implications: to change someone's mind, you will be more likely to succeed if you go about it indirectly, perhaps eliciting a commitment from the person to some other value or identity of theirs that could lead them eventually to a different conclusion, but that isn't in direct and obvious opposition to their original commitment.
Also, to stop yourself from being unable to take in relevant information by commitments that you've made, reframe 'errors' as 'surprises'. No-one likes to think that they've made a mistake, and your mind will jump through a lot of hoops to avoid that feeling.
However, if reality doesn't turn out the way your beliefs led you to expect, you'll feel surprised. This just means there's new information coming in. If you reframe that as a surprise rather than an error, you will be more likely to learn from it and update your worldview. For best results, keep a 'surprise journal'. More about this, with some research backup, here.
If you hold an opinion strongly, and someone presents you with actual facts that contradict that opinion, your belief in the validity of y0ur opinion will actually be strengthened.
Why? It's a combination of confirmation bias – you will ignore or reframe or actively look for flaws in the disconfirming evidence – and consistency. Once you've declared for a position, you will go to any lengths to keep hold of it.
If news media in pursuit of 'balance' present two opposing points of view, you will ignore the one that you don't like, even if it contains valid evidence. And if you hear just the opposing point of view, with facts supporting it, to preserve consistency you will probably construct a counter-argument in your mind that may lead you to a more extreme position than you held before.
Practical implications: you can never win an argument online! The more facts and links you post, the more you are strengthening your 'opponent' in their point of view.
Also, remember that the backfire effect is working on you as well! So the evidence presented by your 'opponent' is probably making your position more rigid. Don't get sucked into that.
So – don't expect someone to change their mind in the heat of the moment. Maybe some of the evidence you've presented will get through to them after they've had time to calm down and reflect on it.
Most importantly, don't directly contradict people even if you 'know' they are wrong (and given that no-one has a monopoly on the truth, and that people do change their minds all the time when left to themselves, don't assume that you have arrived at absolute truth yourself).
Instead, present 'positive' examples that don't directly contradict your 'opponent' but nevertheless may lead them to different conclusions. These are more likely to work if they appeal to other strongly held values they may have. As they consider these examples, they may begin to modify their viewpoint.
Finally, go for that rarest of things – a conversation in which you are open to learning. Put yourself in the mind of the other person, look at things from their point of view, and as Stephen Covey says, "Seek first to understand, and then to be understood." Maybe you'll learn something that makes you update your point of view. At the very least, you'll be in a better position to understand what reasoning might lead them to soften their position and become more open.
This is an interesting article and makes some valid points. But if that was true all the time, then why does propaganda and false information work in manipulating people, but citing real facts does not?
I believe this happens because people accept the false information if it feels like it confirms their existing beliefs. If they agree with it, and they don't know about confirmation bias, they aren't strongly motivated to check on whether it's true.

Hi, have just ordered some new wheels for my bike. Fulcrum 7s from Wiggle.
It says that they are suitable for an 8/9/10 speed cassette.
I have a 9 speed Shimano Ultegra cassette, will it require a spacer to fit on the splined thingy?
This is the last bit on my little bike project. I've been working on this the last couple of months. Can't wait to ride it!!
I think its only the narrower 10spd cassettes that need a 1 mm spacer but not 100% sure.
I got some mavic Aksiums recently and needed the spacer to put an 8 speed cassette on, I think a 9 is the widest cassette and a 10 the same as a 8.
Sure there will be someone along saying some thing different in a minute.
All I know for sure is an 8 on a Mavic needs a spacer.
I suppose the proof will be in the pudding!
Just hoping I can get the bike together and get out on it straight away!

The Sounds of Stonehenge
Stonehenge is a mysterious monument that has captivated the attention of laymen, scholar and researcher throughout the centuries…it is a wonder that pre-dates the concept of Jesus Christ and is believed to have been a place where the local druids came for religious rituals and practices. These practices were more often than comprised of chanting and rhythmic drum beats that could have possibly left its listeners to experience a trance-like state. These sounds that were created at Stonehenge left music technologist and composer Dr. Rupert Till to ponder the likely acoustic effects of Stonehenge after finding a pilot study on the subject. He came up with the theory that the famous ring of stone could have sung like a crystal wine glass with a wet finger rubbing the rim, stimulated in this case by percussion played in time to the echoes of the space.
With the help Dr. Bruno Fazenda, Till was able to use a reproduction of Stonehenge to analyze acoustic field measurements and search for evidence of acoustic features. Here it was possible to make the whole space resonate using a simple percussion rhythm, made by reconstructions of Neolithic instruments, which were tuned to the space. Strange acoustic effects appeared in the structure as if the stones themselves were singing. This research has suggested where people might have stood at Stonehenge, the sort of instruments possibly used, what kind of sounds could have been made and how fast people might have played. It has also allowed tentative steps towards suggesting that the music may have acted to entrain the body, encourage Alpha rhythms in the brain, and help achieve altered states of trance-like consciousness (Till, 2009).
According to Till, who has also reproduced the sound of someone speaking or clapping in Stonehenge 5,000 years ago, particular spots at the site produce unusual acoustic effects, suggesting that perhaps a priest or a shaman may have stood there, leading the ritual. Till's research ties in with previous studies carried out by Aaron Watson, an artist and archaeologist who specializes in the study of Neolithic monuments. Watson's research strongly suggested that the monument's builders knew how to direct the movement of sound. Indeed, the stones at Stonehenge amplify higher-frequency sounds, such as the human voice, while lower-frequency sounds such as drums pass around the stones and can be heard for some distance (Lorenzi, 2009).
The effect would have been a "dynamic multi-sensory experiences," according to Watson.
"An audience outside the monument could not have clearly seen or heard events within, perhaps creating a sense of mystery. In contrast, an audience occupying the confined interior of Stonehenge would have heard amplified sounds."
Below is a link which produces some of the sounds discussed in this article:

Meet Courtney, born and bred in Christchurch. Meet Matt, born and bred in Hamilton. They are newly engaged and down from the big lights of Auckland where they are living, to come celebrate their engagement with Courtney's Christchurch life.
The wedding is in the North Island, so the engagement is in the South Island. That's where I step in. We hit the beauty Christchurch has to offer. Starting with… Hagley Park and The Botanical Gardens.
A little camera shy at first, they soon got into their groove.
I love the multitude and variety of trees NZ has to offer. I took this for granted for a long time. I like this big guy below. I reckon he's seen and heard a lot of love stories at his roots.
Up to the Port Hills. That nice little bit of road where it's 10 steps either side to a gorgeous view. Christchurch and The Alps on one and The Banks Peninsula on the other.
Oh glorious evening light. You make my toes tingle and my heart skip a beat!
Oh Courtney you beauty! Totally gorgeous!
And this is Christchurch. From up above. She's still so pretty.
Thanks for an amazing afternoon Courtney and Matt. You guys are fantastic. Enjoy your engagement and the lead up to the big day! Can't wait to show you the rest of your engagement shoot!

Q: Recursive calculation for stock Power BI I have a problem with calculating the stock for articles. I am using a matrix in which the rows are the articles and the columns are firstly days of the week, and then each column is delivered, sold.
My goal is to find the 'predicted' stock for each day.
I have an initial value for the stock for example 10, and I have received 5 more, and sold 3, so the stock for Monday would be 10 + 5 - 3 = 12, the next day I have received 10 and sold 2, so on Tuesday the stock would be 12 + 10 - 2 = 20 and so on.
I have the following DAX but it is not working, it is only calculating the stock for each day separately:
Stock (KG) =
IF(
    SUM(Warengruppen[Week day]) = 0,
    CALCULATE(Warengruppen[Init stock] + Warengruppen[Quantity D AVG (KG)]-Warengruppen[Quantity S AVG (KG)]),
    CALCULATE(
        Warengruppen[Init stock] +
        CALCULATE(Warengruppen[Quantity D AVG (KG)] - Warengruppen[Quantity S AVG (KG)],
        Warengruppen[Week day] >= 0)
    )
)

Thanks for the help.
The table looks like this:
Article X initial stock 5
Article Y initial stock 10
               |Monday|         |Tuesday|       |Wednesday|
         |Del.| Sold.| Stock|   |Del.| Sold.| Stock|  |Del. |Sold.| Stock|

|Article X |   10|    5 |    10 |     2|    5 |    7 |     3|    2 |      8|
|Article Y  |  10 |   0 |    20 |     0 |   20|    0 |     0   |  1 |     -1|
