Animal Crossing is a game in which you, a newly independent person of unspecified age, move into a new town and immediately become forced into labor to pay off the debt you owe to the one person who almost completely controls the local economy.
While this game was the west's introduction to Nintendo's quirky, then-budding life simulator franchise, the game is actually a GameCube port of Doubutsu no Mori for the Nintendo 64, heavily modified in localization to give westerners an experience analogous to what Japanese players got. The localization was apparently so impressive that it got re-localized for Japan with added features, effectively making it a localization of a localization of a port.
Even unlockable stuff has things unused.
A re-release of a remake of a re-release. We need to go deeper.
Specifically: Get screenshots, post them, figure out other debug functions, make this not be walls of text.
The game has a debug mode which can be activated by setting the disc ID version field to 0x99. Use a hex editor to change byte #7 (0x00000007) of the ISO/GCM file. It works on all versions – the North American, European, Japanese (both versions), and Australian games can all be modified in this way.
Pressing Start brings up text that says ナシ (nothing).
Up on the D-Pad cycles through the categories FTR (furniture), PPR (paper), MNY (money), TOL (tools and umbrellas and junk), FSH (fish), ELS (other junk), CPT (carpet), WLL (wallpaper), FOD (food), MSC (music), DST (calendar/diary things), LOT (raffle tickets), IST (insects), HPY (grab bags), and KAB (turnips).
Left and Right on the D-Pad change the number.
Down on the D-Pad puts one of the selected item in your pocket.
Controller 2 features everything else. Most buttons, when pressed once, will show or hide a debug display. The C-stick is four separate buttons, one for each of Up, Down, Left, and Right. R changes the game speed rather than displaying something on-screen.
In the item screen, C-Down gives you one net, axe, shovel, and fishing rod; C-Left increases your money by 1,000 Bells; and C-Right fills your pocket with bags of 30,000 Bells.
Controller 2 also has two-button combinations, all of which involve holding L, R, or Start. All but one of the possible combinations opens memory editors of some kind (the exception being holding R and pressing Down on the D-Pad, which pauses and unpauses the game). Memory editors can be opened by holding one of the three buttons mentioned earlier, and pressing another button twice. For example, holding L and tilting the C-Stick left twice opens the "S(SREG)" editor. holding L and tilting the C-Stick left again flips to the next page, and so on. The editor closes when there are no more pages or when different button combo starts (e.g., holding R and pressing Start once).
Editors are navigated using the D-Pad to scroll up and down between items, and left and right between possible values. The editor that opens from holding R and pressing Start, "H(HREG)", can be used to activate a debug controller input display by navigating to item 47 and setting its value to nonzero.
L+R - Freezes the emulation when held.
L+C-Stick left/right - Slows down or speeds up the emulation depending on how much the C-Stick is pressed.
In addition to the 15 available NES games, there are four normally unobtainable games dubbed "The Forbidden Four" by fans: Mario Bros., Ice Climber, Super Mario Bros., and The Legend of Zelda. Certain NES game requirements were shifted around in each regional version of the game, which resulted in some obscure methods to obtain them.
In the initial Japanese release, Ice Climber could be obtained as a gift when transferring save data from Doubutsu no Mori (although this service has long since been discontinued), while Super Mario Bros. was given away as a limited-run Famitsu prize.
In North America, Mario Bros. and Ice Climber were obtainable via very rare e-Reader cards in Series 4 of Animal Crossing-e.
The Legend of Zelda is legitimately unavailable in any version.
These games can only be obtained by hacking them into the player's inventory (particularly for European versions, where none of these were ever made available legitimately), as trying to unlock them with a trade code generator will not work. Interestingly, all except The Legend of Zelda have Advance Play options, and in Doubutsu no Mori e+, the Advance Play data still remains via hacking, even though the games were otherwise erased as console items.
On top of the 19 games that can be played, several more are referenced by the game but do not have ROMs or models in the game's data: Gomoku Narabe Renju, Mahjong, Nazo no Murasamejou, Super Mario Bros. 2, and NES Open Tournament Golf.
The only mentions for most of these games are in static.map, though Gomoku Narabe Renju can also be seen referenced at F4C2C.
An odd unused NPC, formerly fandubbed "Blazel" can be found within the game's code; their name comes from the fact that her design incorporates several elements of that of both Bliss/Caroline and Hazel. However, recent digging within the files of Doubutsu no Mori + has revealed her Japanese name to be Shaki~tsu (シャキッ), meaning "Chestnut"; immediately following this name is the text "とりゃ〜" (Torya〜), which may have been a catch phrase. These two text files are the last ones in the game's code associated with Chestnut, indicating that she may have been removed late into development. What's odd about this character is that she is listed among the special NPCs in the game; fans have speculated that she may have served as a gardener NPC (similarly to Leif in New Leaf), given how stub methods for wilting and growing flowers can be found alongside her in the game's files. Chestnut can be spawned into a player's town using the below Action Replay code, using xxxx as a regular villager, with yyyy being set to either D06C or E15A.
Because her text data is garbled, Chestnut will use various other characters' dialogue, depending on what yyyy is set to. If she is spawned into a player's town with the above code and yyyy set to D06C, her name will be displayed as "[key symbol] ù«–•B¡¡" (the default name for special NPCs) and she will simply parrot one of Kappn's lines. Setting yyyy to E15A, however, makes her appear recycling Jambette's text data (albeit with a male dialogue box instead of Jambette's female one). This appears to be the result of Jambette's status as the earliest-indexed female villager: since Chestnut lacks functional text data, attempting to spawn her in as a standard villager causes the game to loop around and generate Jambette's text data by default.
Find screenshots of each item; include screenshots of the Unknown Item's inventory sprite and the Sickle's overworld sprite.
DUMMY, a glitch item appearing as a white triangle with red Japanese text on it reading "ダミー" (which translates to "DUMMY", hence the name). Unlike other items, this one can be accessed through a glitch – once in an Igloo (the winter equivalent of a Summer Camper's tent), you obtain the item in a similar way to other furniture. The villager inside might want to play a game where s/he will ask you to pick two cards: one card forces you to buy something, while the other gives you a free prize. The prize card may sometimes be a DUMMY.
The Legend of Zelda appearing as a standard NES that will reset Animal Crossing upon attempting to play.
A blue fish with a hook in its mouth, possibly used to test the fishing function.
A glowing yellow box that moves back and forth, can push the player around (sometimes making them float), and can modify the spread of Paper Airplanes; it was most likely used to test the lighthouse.
A tool labeled "Sickle", which makes the player function as if they had nothing in their hands. Strangely, it appears as a toolbox when dropped, a feature that only appeared in Doubutsu no Mori (evidencing that the icon is still in Animal Crossing's code), Wild World and New Leaf. However, a toolbox can be seen in Animal Island.
An "Unknown Item" that appears in the player's inventory as a box with a question mark, and appears in homes as a clone of DUMMY.
Paper Airplanes which, if you place on the ground, walk offscreen, and come back, will duplicate itself. Pressing A while on top of the paper airplane will make it disappear visibly, but will still exist in the system's memory. When the airplanes fill up an acre, that acre shuts down and is rendered inaccessible. Letting the airplane multiply too much can shut down your entire town and crash the game.
Present items that can't be removed or opened from the inventory.
Full grown saplings, trees, town tune board, stores, map and train models.
These items can also be accessed using Universal Codes, accessible from wikias, online guides, or online generators.
At the beginning of string_data.bin is a test line of text.
Among the catchphrases are some temporary strings of text that indicate catchphrases that haven't been translated.
At the beginning of mail_data.bin is some testing related text for letters.
boot.dol, the game's executable, has a few interesting strings.
:::there is some error in this heap!
Sorry, not prepared for SZP archive.
At D79E1 is comment that matches a string found in the Game Boy Advance Bootstrap ROM, so it is safe to assume that the .dol contains a copy of the GBA Bootstrap and it is not otherwise part of the game.
The sixth time you meet Resetti, he will force you to copy what he says by typing it in. However, typing in the following phrases will trigger an Easter egg. Some of these things are somewhat vulgar.

Hello Jochen I'm not aware of a tutorial but here are some observations from my (very) recent experiences upgrading a local paste-based 17.09 instance to a uwsgi-based 18.05 configuration. It's not comprehensive because the configuration will depend on decisions you need to make based on your local setup, but it might be helpful as a starting point. Before beginning: -- Commit to migrating from galaxy.ini to galaxy.yml (if not done previously) Even though its possible to stick with the old galaxy.ini file, it seems best to move to the new format - my feeling is, probably the migration will have to happen at some point anyway, and also the documentation is more focussed on the newer galaxy.yml version. -- Decide on how you're going to handle job submission (essentially, how you're going to replace the old job handler processes). There are a number of possibilities outlined in the documentation here: https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/release_18.05/admin/scaling.html#deploy... It seems important to figure this out at the beginning because it impacts a lot of the configuration specifics that follow. For our setup case "uwsgi + mules" looked like the most appropriate: https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/release_18.05/admin/scaling.html#uwsgi-... Then once you're ready to start (nb backing up the database etc before starting are implicitly assumed!): -- Update the Galaxy source code The standard recipe for this seems to work okay i.e. git fetch origin && git checkout release_18.05 && git pull --ff-only origin release_18.05 (You'll probably also need to run scripts/common_startup.sh to update the Python packages, and scripts/manage_db.py to update the database schema.) -- Create galaxy.yml and configure the "galaxy" section: You can make a galaxy.yml from the sample version and go through the "galaxy" section replicating the settings from galaxy.ini. (The settings in the "uwsgi" section can wait at this stage.) Don't forget to move galaxy.ini out of the way once you're done. -- Configure the "uwsgi" section of galaxy.yml: The options for various scenarios are given in the "Deployment/uwsgi" section: https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/release_18.05/admin/scaling.html#uwsgi but the required settings seem to be spread out between different sections so (for me) it felt like it took some piecing together to get it to work when I first tried this. (Also I was thrown a little by the "socket" parameter not having a placeholder in sample galaxy.yml.) The core uwsgi options are here: https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/release_18.05/admin/scaling.html#config... then you need to set other options dependent on: 1. how job submission is handled (e.g. options for the "uwsgi + mules" setup in my case) 2. how you're proxying Galaxy (for Apache or nginx it looks like it's just setting the uwsgi "socket" option, unless you're serving Galaxy from a URL prefix in which case there are a few more options needed - these are covered in the documentation.) -- Fix your job_conf.xml file If you have an existing job_conf.xml file in your config directory then you might need to update that too (specifically the "handlers" section) depending on the job submission handling you've decided to use. -- Use supervisor to manage your uwsgi processes The docs for this are here: https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/release_18.05/admin/scaling.html#starti... Essentially supervisor replaces "run.sh", so this becomes how you start and stop Galaxy (e.g. "supervisorctl start galaxy:" replaces "GALAXY_RUN_ALL=1 sh run.sh --daemon".) I think this is quite straightforward from the docs but again you need to tailor it for how you're handling job submission (e.g the "uwsgi + mules" doesn't need any handlers defining, but it looks like other strategies needs extra stuff defining here). -- Set up the proxying Assuming you're proxing via either Apache or nginx (we're using nginx), these are covered in the relevant sections: https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/release_18.05/admin/apache.html https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/release_18.05/admin/nginx.html The main difference I noticed for nginx is that you no longer need to use the "upstream"/"proxy_pass" directives, as nginx can talk directly to uwsgi using a "uwsgi_pass" directive that connects to the socket defined in the "uwsgi" section of galaxy.yml previously. (There's also a "gotcha" if you're nginx configuration also tries to serve "static/scripts/packed", which needs to be removed - this is noted in the "breaking changes" for the 18.05 docs but is easy to miss.) Hopefully this is some help. There's lots of documentation, which is a good thing but which can sometimes make it harder to see where to start.

Q: update of centroids in $k$ means clustering I have been reading the lecture notes of Andrew Ng about Clustering techniques available in:
http://cs229.stanford.edu/notes/cs229-notes7a.pdf
but I have a problem in the second for of step $2$ which is the following:

For what I know, the previous step or for each section what it does is to set a value of $c$ considering the minimum value of each x minus the value of the centroid ($\mu$). According to what I read the second for each should update the values of the centroid by computing the new mean of the $x$ values assigned to this centroid, but how does this part do that? any numerical example would be great.
Why there is a value of $1\{\}$ before each set of brackets? and for what I see the value of the numerator by being multiplied with $x^{(i)}$ their summation would be greater than the sum of the value of the denominator. Should not be the other way around?
Thanks

A: The formula means if the $i$-th data point is considered to be group $j$, we should consider that data point in updating our mean.
For example, if we think $x_1, x_2, x_3$ belongs to cluster $1$.
Then $\mu_1 = \frac{x_1+x_2+x_3}{3}.$
The notation $1\{c^{(i)}=j\}$ is an indicator function.
$\sum_{i=1}^m1\{c^{(i)}=j\}$ count the number of data point in cluster $j$.
$\sum_{i=1}^m1\{c^{(i)}=j\}x_i$ sums up the data points in cluster $j$.
The formula is the average of data points in the $j$-th cluster.

Colorado Day 1: Orem to Durango
Posted in Weekly Post, tagged castle gate coal mine, coal, coal mine, coal seam, continuous miner, durango colorado, helper utah, long wall miner, railroad museum on August 13, 2012| 2 Comments »
The following posts will detail my expedition to document the history of mining in Colorado. Funds for this trip were provided through Teachers Without Borders and the MIT BLOSSOMS project, sponsors of the What If Prize competition.
Map of my route for Day 1: Orem to Durango
I began my journey on Monday, July 9. After getting everything packed in my Dodge Grand Caravan mini-van, I left my home in Orem, Utah about 11:00 and traveled south on I-15 to Spanish Fork, then east on U.S. 6 through Spanish Fork Canyon. I stopped to take a few photos of the Thistle mudslide and what's left of the town of Thistle itself. In the fall of 1982, after two weeks of constant rain brought in by a tropical storm, a large section of the canyon wall gave way and slid into the bottom, damning the river and flooding the small town of Thistle. The main Denver and Rio Grande Railroad had to build tunnels through the slide and U.S. 6 had to be routed around the disaster. Now, thirty years later, the slope is still unstable but is beginning to get a re-growth of oak brush, but no pine trees yet.

The Western Mining and Railroad Museum in Helper, Utah
Coming down the east side of Price Canyon, I stopped at a road cut where a nice coal seam is visible. This one is too thin to be economically mined, but it gives an idea how the coal is interbedded with sandstone and shale layers. The coal began as swamps during the Jurassic Period that ringed a shallow inland sea which covered eastern Utah. Rivers drained from a tall mountain range on the Utah-Nevada border eastward into the sea, depositing layers of mud and sand over the swamps, which became compressed into coal. Dinosaurs walked in these mudflats and left footprints in the peat moss, which filled in with sand and are now found in the roof of the coal seams.

The layers were later uplifted when the Rocky Mountains rose along with the rest of the Colorado Plateau. The center of the plateau bulged into a giant syncline, the San Rafael Swell. The coal seams became exposed in the edges of the Book Cliffs in a giant crescent, now called the Carbon Crescent that stretches from Green River around to Emery. In the early 1880s the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad was built between Denver and Salt Lake City. My own Great-Great-Grandfather, Joseph S. Black, worked to build the railroad grade with scrapers and horse teams. He discovered a large coal seam that he sold for $3000. It became the Castle Gate Coal Mine, one of the first large mines in the district.

The Western Mining and Railroad Museum in Helper, Utah.
The town of Helper was built to provide extra locomotives to help pull the trains over the top of Soldier Summit. It also became a transport center for the coal coming out of Carbon and Emery Counties. Today, the town's history of coal and railroads is preserved in the Western Mining and Railroad Museum at 294 South Main St. in Helper. Here's their website:
http://www.wmrrm.org/
The Main Street of Helper, Utah during the early days of coal mining.
The museum takes up the rooms of an old hotel, plus a new annex, and is organized by topic (such as the shadier side of life in Helper, with gambling tables and whiskey stills from Prohibition days) and by community (with rooms for each town in the district, such as Clear Creek or Sunnyside). There was a room on doctors and dentists, with a complete dentist's chair and equipment, a room on schools, one on laundry facilities, one on sports teams, one for grocery and dry goods stores, etc. Downstairs was a large room with equipment used in the mines, such as rescue breathing apparatus, miner's helmets, lamps, coal assaying equipment, and diagrams of how coal is mined.
Miners at the Sunnyside coal mine, circa 1955.

A large coal seam is basically a layer that is at least six feet thick and extends left and right of the main portal and into the side of the hill, often for miles. After over 100 years of mining, the coal seams are still extensive and there is enough here in the Carbon Crescent of Utah alone to serve all of the United States for at least 200 years.
Newspaper announcing the Winter Quarters mine explosion in Scofield, Utah on May 1, 1900.
One room was dedicated to the Winter Quarters mine disaster of 1900. On May 1, 1900, a new shift had just entered the Winter Quarters Mine Portal 4 when a huge explosion blew out of the portal, sending timbers and coal cars across the canyon as if they had been shot out of a rifle barrel. About 250 men were killed, in some cases wiping out every male member of entire families. At the time, it was the worst mining disaster in U.S. history. This photo is from the Salt Lake Tribune the day after, and was found glued to a board hanging in a school that was torn down many years later. The cause of the accident was eventually ruled to be a dust explosion, and new safety procedures were put into place in coal mines to try to prevent it from happening again.
The coal was slow to get out when miners used the standard hard rock tools of picks, shovels, mules, and dynamite. In the 1950s, automated mining machines were installed, culminating in the long-wall mining machine. The long-wall miner (or continuous miner) is a large shearing blade that slices left and right along a seam, taking three feet of coal in one pass. Behind the blade is a continuous conveyor belt that transfers the coal to the side, then to another belt that transports it out of the mine to the processing center where it is broken, sorted, and shipped off in trains and trucks. Behind the shearer, hydraulic lifts hold the ceiling in place until the machine is advanced. The machine usually is placed at the back of the mine and cuts forward, so the ceiling collapses behind it as it cuts its way out.

It was a much more extensive exhibit that I realized, and I stayed longer than I intended, about three hours. I left at 5:00.

A Little Problem with a Rock
On my way beyond Wellington, some rocks had fallen off of a truck and were scattered across my lane. I didn't see them in time to dodge, and my right front wheel struck one and immediately began to vibrate. Within a couple of miles my tire was flat. I had to get out the spare (not easy in a mini-van) and change the tire. The rim was dented and the tire itself looked damaged. I drove on the spare about 50 miles to Green River, where I found an open shop. They didn't have a rim to fit, after several tries and much wasted time. Eventually I had them put the spare tire on the right rear and the right rear on the front and traveled on. It was 9:30 by the time I left.

I had to drive slowly to protect the spare, and it was already dark when I drove down State Road 191 through Moab and beyond to Monticello, where I picked up Highway 491 (formerly 666) through Cortez. I had to pull over in a place called Pleasant Valley in order to take a nap, as it was very late and I was getting drowsy. I finally pulled into the Lightner Creek campground near Durango at about 2:00 in the morning. I was too tired to try to pitch my tent, so I threw a tarp on the ground, laid down a thick comforter and my sleeping bag, and wrapped the tarp over me like a burrito to protect myself from a light drizzle of rain and slept tolerably well.

Event 38 demonstrates fuel cell on a fixed-wing VTOL drone
21 June 2022 21 June 2022 Press
Event 38 Unmanned Systems, a leading manufacturer of American-made mapping drones, announces the successful completion of a demo flight of the E450, a drone powered by a hydrogen fuel cell on Monday, June 13, at the Kent State University airport.
The demo flight was the culmination of a multi-year project that started in 2020 and was sponsored by the Ohio Federal Research Network (OFRN), a program managed by Parallax Advanced Research. Event 38 partnered with other experts at Kent State University, Case Western Reserve University, the University of Dayton, and Wright State University to explore the possibility of powering drones with fuel cells. The fuel cell used for the project was purchased from Ballard Unmanned Systems, which was acquired by Honeywell in October of 2020.
Fuel cells are a promising power source for drones. Using a fuel cell can extend a drone's flight time by a significant margin, which is a great advantage. Additionally, because fuel cell power relies on fewer moving parts, drones powered by fuel cell require far less maintenance and are extremely quiet compared to gas-powered drones.
"This team was among the first to experiment with using fuel cells to power fixed-wing, VTOL drones," said Jeff Taylor, founder and CEO of Event 38. "At Event 38, we've been making drones for a decade, so we were very eager to play a role in discovering how fuel cells can shape the future of unmanned flight technology. Plus we recently completed another OFRN project where we integrated a 3D-printed antenna with the E400, our newest fixed-wing mapping drone, so we were excited to be part of another OFRN project."
In order to accommodate the significant size of the fuel cell, Taylor and the Event 38 team scaled up the design of the E400 to create the E450. They customized the carbon fiber structure of the E450 to fit the fuel cell and tank. They also developed a custom thermal management setup to keep the fuel cell cool while in flight. Design and assembly were conducted entirely at Event 38's headquarters in Richfield, Ohio, where the company has robust composite prototyping and custom manufacturing capabilities.
Event 38 Principal Engineer Mathew Wright managed integration of the fuel cell and power management systems with the E450's flight controller and ground control station.
"The autopilot and power system need to be more closely integrated for a fuel cell compared with a battery or gasoline engine," said Wright. "The power needs to be regulated in real time to optimize for changing power draw and anticipated power bursts to climb or land under VTOL."
After several years of work, the entire team, along with a representative from OFRN, gathered on Monday, June 13, at Kent State University Airport for a demo flight of the completed drone.
The E450 flew successfully for two hours, achieving Level 7 — "system prototype demonstration in a relevant environment" — on the technology readiness level (TRL) scale. Based on an energy use analysis study conducted after the demo, Taylor is confident that the drone could fly for up to 6 hours with a fully pressurized Hydrogen tank.
The success of the project bodes well for the future of fuel cells as a power source for drones.
"In the past, there were a number of drone applications that were deemed impractical because gas and battery power weren't sufficient due to limited range, noise, or maintenance concerns," said Taylor. "We're excited to see which applications we can revisit now that fuel cell power is an option. For example, while Event 38 is not focused on delivery drones, our colleagues in the industry may now be closer to making delivery drones a reality with fuel cell power.
Theoretically, if someone wanted to start a drone delivery service with a fleet of Event 38 drones, they could."
Another exciting possibility is more effective aerial surveillance. Noisy gas-powered drones have to fly high to maintain secrecy. Because fuel cells use electric motors, they're much quieter and stealthier. An operator can fly the drone low, below the clouds, and use an off-the-shelf sensor to get high-resolution imagery or video. And thanks to the long range of fuel cell power, operators can monitor a site from much farther away.
"In terms of flight time, this drone is truly unmatched among its competitors," said Taylor. "We're proud to have been a part of yet another project that's setting a new standard for drone performance."
Companies interested in purchasing an E450 can choose between fuel cell, gas, and battery power, based on their specific requirements. The E400, Event 38's newest fixed-wing VTOL mapping drone, was launched earlier this year and is also available for shorter-range missions.

The 2018 Gordon Research Conference (GRC) "Microbial Toxins and Pathogenicity" and its companion Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) will showcase exciting basic and applied research in the bacterial pathogenesis field while promoting intensive discussion and networking between new and veteran researchers from academia, government, medicine and biotech. This biennial international conference is regarded by the microbial pathogenesis community as our premier venue for intellectual exchange. To be held July 8-13 at the Waterville Valley Resort in New Hampshire, the Conference is led by Chair Andrew Camilli, PhD and Vice-chair Heran Darwin, PhD. Nine sessions will feature 35 invited speakers plus 4 selected from the GRS, chosen to integrate cutting-edge research on bacterial toxins, virulence regulation, pathogenesis, pathogen evolution, physiology, role of host microbiota, and innate immune responses. Poster sessions will promote extended discussions between colleagues within and across disciplines and ranks. To integrate and develop the next generation of scientists in our field, the GRC will be preceded by a GRS. Together the Seminar and Conference promise to provide an exceptional forum for a diverse population of scientists to learn about cutting edge discoveries in the field, and consider and challenge the current paradigms, barriers and opportunities to advancing knowledge of molecular mechanisms of microbial infection.
To promote diversity among participants (ethnic diversity; inclusion of international participants or participants from smaller schools) a limited number of travel fellowships of $500 each will be available to attend the meeting. To apply for the fellowship you must first apply and be accepted to the GRC, then apply to the meeting Chair for the fellowship (send CV and short note of how you would contribute to diversity). These applications will be due before May 14th, 2018. Recipients will be notified by May 21st, 2018.
This GRC will be held in conjunction with the "Microbial Toxins and Pathogenicity (GRS)" Gordon Research Seminar (GRS). Those interested in attending both meetings must submit an application for the GRS in addition to an application for the GRC. Refer to the associated GRS program page for more information.

Over the past 100 years the Fairgrounds Park has been host to many different types of events and activities, from music concerts and plays to church fellowship gatherings. The following is an abbreviated list of some of the events that are currently active at the Fairgrounds Park.
The campground at the Fairgrounds Park is approximately seven acres in size and it can hold more than 200 camper units during event activities. All of the sites are located amongst towering red and white pine trees. Most of the sites are semi-primitive with few amenities. Approximately 80 sites can be connected to electric services. None of the sites have septic hookup at this time however there is a public RV dump station west of the campground area.
The campground offers a wash house with full shower and laundry services available. The amenities include picnic tables and fire rings when requested. The fire rings are portable wheel rims and are available as requested. Firewood is available for purchase. Several sites are provided with power hookup for 30 and 50 amp services. The campground is mostly used by event campers such as the Bluegrass Festival, the Car Show/Swap Meet, the County Fair, and other local community activities.
The rules are similar to other campgrounds in the area. Campers are to choose a site, setup, and pay upon arrival. Fees are dropped in a self-pay box and picked up daily by the staff. No reservations are available and no golf carts or ATV's are allowed in the campground or on the park grounds.
The Car Show/Swap Meet is generally held on the last weekend in July. The Itasca Vintage Car Club held this event from 1972 to 2013. This has been a very popular event in Itasca County with many visitors from around the world. In 2014, when the Car Club decided to not host this event the Grand Rapids Area Chamber of Commerce volunteered to continue the event.
There are several horse clubs in the area that come to the Fairgrounds Park every year to do horse shows and training. A large 270 by 100 foot outdoor arena complete with bleachers and an announcer's booth is available at the park.
The Itasca County Fair is usually held on the third weekend of August. This event brings in a large number of visitors during the five day event. The fair features horse shows, music, carnival rides, demo derbies, stock-car races, exhibits, agricultural and livestock shows and competitions.
The Youth Water Summit has been held at the Fairgrounds Park for 5th grade students from District 318, Deer River, St. Joseph's Catholic school, and Bigfork. Approximately 360 students rotate through 40 water science presenters to learn more about the environment and animal life in and around water. Funds are provided by local community grant sources and 50 to 60 adult volunteers help with the project.
The Fairgrounds Park has been home to many music events such as the Bluegrass Festival and the Blues Festival. The park is well suited for gatherings that need large open spaces, parking and camping for vendors and visitors. Currently there is a small Gazebo on the grounds for smaller local events.
The expo has been active for many years providing a place for loggers, vendors, and timber companies to explore new equipment and ideas designed for the logging industry. When the event is held in Itasca County the Expo sets up on the county fairgrounds in late September.
Throughout the summer many race car events and derbies are held at the Itasca County Raceway on the north end of the fairgrounds. These events draw in many race enthusiasts from Itasca County and several neighboring counties.
School activities have been held at the Fairgrounds Park over the past 60 years. The park is located between the Robert J. Elkington Middle School and the Grand Rapids Senior High School and Murphy Elementary is just a few blocks away. Because of the close proximity of the park to these schools, students use the park for in-school and after-school activities.
The Minnesota DNR and several local ATV and Snowmobile Clubs host ATV and snowmobile safety programs at the Fairgrounds Park. These safety programs graduate many children each year, providing instruction in the safe operation of recreational vehicles. The Trailhead Building at the park is available for use as a training facility. The open space on the grounds works well for the field practice portion of safety training.
Several bike, snowmobile, dogsled, and walking events have begun and finished at the Itasca County Fairgrounds Park for more than 25 years. The Fairgrounds Park is the trailhead for the Mesabi Bike Trail, the Itasca Bike Trail, and the Taconite Snowmobile Trail. The Mesabi Bike Trail and Taconite Snowmobile Trail are well-known tourist's attractions. The Itasca Bike Trail is part of Itasca County's Regional Parks and Trails area, connects the Fairgrounds Park to Gunn Park.
Fairgrounds Park is the perfect facility to support many 4-H activities. Horse Project members use the arena for workshops and meetings throughout the summer. The Dog project meets weekly at the fairgrounds from May through August for 4-H Dog Training classes. The Dairy Barn is home to the agility course, and various green spaces become the obedience classrooms. Dog training culminates in a Fun Show 2 weeks prior to the County Fair.The Gazebo provides the perfect stage for the annual August 4-H Demonstration Event, and the 4-H Food Booth picnic area is home to many 4-H activities from May through September. The Trailhead Building has been a frequent home for 4-H Project Fun Day in the spring, Freezin Fun in the winter, 4-H Adventures in the summer, and various special events and overnight retreats during the year.


Agrarian Trust was conceived in January 2013 by a 30-member team of farmers, ranchers, lawyers, conservationists, farm-service providers, philanthropists, farm business advisers, technical assistants, agricultural economists and accountants at Paicines Ranch, Paicines California.
3. Build a Farmland Commons to hold the land, a gold standard that provokes a powerful conversation about the commons.
After another convening at Paicines Ranch in January 2014, we released a set of principles, which we made public at the 2 day, OUR LAND Symposium in April of 2014.
Agrarian Trust is happy to be partnering with the Sustainable Economies Law Center of Berkeley California in writing the legal language to hold land in the farmland commons. We hope to be ready to take in farms by April 2015, primarily via " land gifting" in the tradition of the Bhoodan movement.
The trust design is based on the work of Terre De Liens, a French group that has protected more than 100 organic farms, as well as the principles gathered from our stakeholder community during the Paicines sessions.
The design is informed by the question: "What does the land want?" And how can we arrange the social and economic relationships around that goal. Through our work we can preserve affordable farmland for sustainable agriculture, in perpetuity. In the face of land grabbing, speculation, financialization and farmland loss to development– we know the power of example to provoke a conversation about the foundation of our economy.
On our site you'll find many useful resources including a guidebook: Affording Our Land, a young farmers guide to farm finance. We also have a blog of "Land News" and over 70 documented Land Access Stories & Strategies, which will continue to grow. We are committed to tracking, and interpreting innovative models of partnership, lease-to-own, community finance, and land-gifting, and welcome your suggestions of more leads to follow up on. You can also find a comprehensive resource list and geocoded map, access to a network of Agrarian Lawyers, and the Kiva Zip program.

The Global System for Mobile communications (GSM) is a wireless telecommunications standard for digital cellular services. The original standard was optimized for voice communications and provided only circuit-switched data connections at a bit rate of 9.6 kbps and a short messages service (SMS). Later enhancements made higher bit rates and packet switched data possible. GSM is based on TDMA technology.
Although the roots of GSM are European, GSM is nowadays the biggest standard used for the 2nd generation of mobile communications. The success of GSM made roaming in big parts of the world possible.
GSM networks operate in different frequency ranges:
900 MHz,
the core band that is extended later (E-GSM);
1800 MHz,
used in South and North America.
Besides these 3 bands the 850 MHz band and the 450 MHz band are used on a rather small scale.
A complete list of GSM bands is given in the table below.
Band Name Uplink
(MHz) Downlink
(MHz) Remarks
GSM400 GSM450 450,4 - 457,6 460,4 - 467,6
GSM480 478,8 - 486,0 488,8 - 496,0
GSM850 GSM850 824,0 - 849,0 869,0 - 894,0 Used in the Americas and Asia
GSM900 Primary GSM 890,0 - 915,0 935,0 - 960,0 The original GSM band.
Extended GSM 880,0 - 890,0 925,0 - 935,0 Extension of the primary band.
GSM Rail 876,0 - 880,0 921,0 - 925,0 Especially used for railways, for both safety related services and communications.
GSM1800 GSM1800
(DCS1800) 1 710 - 1 785 1 805 - 1 880
(PCS1900) 1 850 - 1 910 1 930 - 1 990 Mainly used in the Americas.
See ARFCN for the exact frequencies of the radio channels.
The GSM network infrastructure consists of one or more Mobile Switching Centres (MSC) each connected to and controlling 2 or 3 Base Station Controllers (BSC). Each BSC is connected to and controlling a number of Base Transceiver Stations (BTS).

Who, What, When, Where, Why?
Posted by Salisbury Museum in Collections
Salisbury Museum
Or…as Alan Clarke has suggested, in producing this photo for us, "Eh Tu, Peter?"
I think we recognise these two gentlemen…. Peter Saunders, Curator Emeritus, and Roman friend, who is now established on the museum lawn.
But what, when, where…? Is it part of the current museum site, stripped out and being set up? Peter was 'at the helm' when all that happened. Or is it part of the old museum, formerly in St Anns Street? Or is it somewhere else entirely?
Wonderful items in the background. Where are they now? A careful look to the rear right hand corner reveals something on which Sydney Carton might have traveled to the guillotine. Perhaps the monumental wheels we can see belong to that tumbril (if that is what it is!)?
I'm sure Peter will tell us!
Don't Miss It – Talk on Mystery Hoard
Posted by Salisbury Museum in Hoards, Wessex Partnership
Finds Liaison Officer, Pewter hoard, Salisbury Museum, Wilts Museum
Our own Wil Partridge, Finds Liaison Officer for Wiltshire, will be at Wiltshire Museum, Devizes on Saturday 14 March 2.30 – 4.30pm, presenting a talk:
Recent finds of late Roman pewter from within Wiltshire
Salisbury Museum Volunteers were involved in 2019 with the cleaning and preservation work on a hoard of pewter from the county (which will be included in Wil's talk). These hoards of pewter are a mystery – unknown in the rest of the Roman Empire, while several have been found in Wiltshire.
Wil and Volunteers cleaning the pewter
Close up of the tank in which the other items were found
Giant, Salisbury Museum
Thanks to Peter Saunders, who writes…
"The mystery photograph (Blog entry 3 Sept) shows part of a temporary photographic exhibition, "The Goings of the Salisbury Giant", held in the entrance hall of the old museum in St Ann Street in September to December 1979. It was mounted by Vernon Morgan and David Cousins of the Salisbury College of Art for the Salisbury Festivities, now the Salisbury International Arts Festival. I cannot recall who it is standing next to the Giant cut-out (possibly Vernon Morgan) but in the background is Tiffany Hunt, the then deputy curator, admiring the work. If my memory serves me, the festival granted us £100 towards the cost (then considered a very useful sum). Forty years on David Cousins provides photographic support with publishing archaeological reports."
Curator Emeritus
Peter Saunders was Director of the Museum for over thirty years and retired in 2007. During this time he masterminded the move of the Museum from St Ann's Street to the King's House. In recent years he oversaw the establishment of the Stonehenge Gallery and the transformation of the temporary exhibition gallery. He is now a volunteer at the Museum.
Russia, Salisbury, Salisbury Museum
We were interested to read the blog post from Alan Crooks on 18 June about the Sword of Stalingrad, and the response comment 'good to record a time of friendly relations with Russia'. This is not the only evidence of that in the Close! When we were researching for Salisbury Past some 20 years ago we found in the Museum's ephemera collection a concert programme for 3 January 1943 (the Tehran Conference was held Nov – Dec 1943).
The front told us who was performing, and is signed 'Best wishes Hubert'. Inside is the list of music played. But the words on the back really caught our attention; again it is evidence of Britain's close relationship with Russia at the time, and brings home how Salisbury really was part of a global conflict:
"The proceeds of this entertainment will be handed to the Russian Ambassador for the provision of comforts for the heroic defenders of Stalingrad"
The Battle of Stalingrad was reaching its climax in January 1943; the Soviet victory over the German 6th Army was arguably the decisive battle of the war.

Salisbury Museum awarded National Lottery support for
Salisbury Museum is delighted to announce that it has been awarded initial support* from The National Lottery Heritage Fund for its Salisbury Museum for Future Generations project.
This £4.4 million project will enable the museum to transform its displays and facilities – completing the work started with the National Lottery funded Wessex Gallery of archaeology in 2014. The museum will create new exhibitions dedicated to its outstanding collections of art, medieval archaeology, costume, ceramics and social history. There will be an extensive programme of capital works to restore and repurpose the Grade I listed medieval building. Alongside this the project will introduce a new and exciting programme of learning and engagement that will embed the museum in the local community.
Thanks to money raised by National Lottery players, The National Lottery Heritage Fund has awarded initial support and development funding of £429,400. This will enable the museum to develop the project plans in more detail and apply for a full grant of £3.2 million. The museum will have two years to raise £1.2 million in match funding from private individuals, trusts and foundations. An application for the full funding amount will be submitted in the summer of 2021.
Adrian Green, Director of Salisbury Museum said:
'This is amazing news not only for the museum, but for the people of Salisbury. The City deserves an excellent museum for the local community. Its outstanding culture and heritage also needs to be presented to the wider world in an exciting and dynamic way'.
Susanna Denniston, Chair of Trustees for the Museum said:
'This support from The National Lottery Heritage Fund offers powerful affirmation of the relevance of the museum, its collections and its heritage. It also affirms the importance of Salisbury's regeneration as its cultural institutions work together to create a positive and inclusive reimagining of the city's history and future.'
The museum is hugely grateful to The National Lottery Heritage Fund, National Lottery players and our local partners for their support.'
* The National Lottery Heritage Fund grant applications over £250,000 are assessed in two rounds. Salisbury Museum for Future Generations has initially been granted round one development funding of £429,400 by The National Lottery Heritage Fund, allowing it to progress with its plans. Detailed proposals are then considered by The National Lottery Heritage Fund at second round, where a final decision is made on the full funding award of £3.2m
More Art…CartES Postales

Major new fundraising initiative from Friends of Erlestoke Prison and The Salisbury Museum
cARTes postales – art on postcards – is an exciting initiative by The Friends of Erlestoke Prison and The Salisbury Museum, working in partnership. The aim is to sell over 300 postcard-sized works of original art for only £40 each, in the style of a lucky dip. This will help raise funds to support rehabilitation projects at HMP Erlestoke, including an all-weather sports pitch, but also much needed money to support the museum and all its future plans.
This is the amazing opportunity to own a piece of art by leading contemporary artists including Antony Gormley, Richard Deacon, Paul Kidby and Sophie Ryder; talented and emerging local artists and some of the best artists at HMP Erlestoke.
Postcard vouchers will be available online from 19 June from the Salisbury Museum website. Postcards will be exhibited at The Salisbury Museum in October and members of the public can buy vouchers online with immediate effect. The allocation of postcards will be randomly generated and postcards dispatched to their lucky recipients by the end of October.
The second part of the fundraising will take place at a drinks reception and auction on the evening of 25 October at The Salisbury Museum. The auction will include works of art donated by well-known artists, who have kindly donated further works in addition to their postcard art.
Please see the Salisbury Museum website www.salisburymuseum.org.uk/whats-on/events/cartes-postales-art-postcards – for updates and further information.
This fundraising initiative has mental well-being at its heart. For the prisoners at HMP Erlestoke, there are currently no facilities for outdoor team sports. Exercise in the fresh air will improve the mental well-being and fitness of prisoners as part of their rehabilitation. It will also help to prevent reoffending. The Friends of Erlestoke Prison are aiming to raise £500,000 to build and install the all-weather sports pitch.
The Salisbury Museum is an independent charity, which uses its outstanding collections of art, archaeology, costume and social history to encourage learning, inspiration and enjoyment for all. The money raised will support the museum on its journey towards securing a grant from the National Lottery Heritage Fund. This project will complete the much needed transformation of the Salisbury history galleries, restore the museum's medieval home and launch a programme of learning and community activities to help build and grow audiences.
Finds of the Week
Posted by Salisbury Museum in PAS
Roman Wiltshire, Salisbury Museum
PAS (Portable Antiquities Scheme) Volunteers continue to work their way through literally hundreds of finds brought into the museum by responsible metal detectorists. Three 'gems' this week, being processed by Volunteers Jane Hanbidge, Alyson Tanner and Alix Smith, together with Finds Liaison Assistant Sohie Hawke are below
Roman Polden Hill brooch (fibula)
Found in Wiltshire, this brooch dates from c AD 75 – 175. We often have beautiful and interesting brooches but not often are they complete. This lovely item is missing only some enamel which would have been held in the triangular cells on the middle of the bow.
Some readers will know that these brooches were worn in a manner which we would consider is upside down. Thus….
They were functional as well as decorative, worn by men and women, holding clothing together, and often worn in pairs as below:
(With thanks to the Roman Finds Group)
By far the most common finds are Roman coins. This one is early:
It is a coin from the rule of Lucilla. Annia Aurelia Galeria Lucilla or Lucilla (March 7, 148 or 150 – 182) who was the second daughter and third child of Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius.
A slightly (!) better example of the same coin appears here……
In the film Gladiator Lucilla was depicted as one of the most dangerous threats faced by her brother, Commodus. She was eventually executed for plotting to assassinate him and take power with her second husband but appears on Roman coins because she was briefly, through her first marriage, Empress Consort.
Every one of these finds would have been sadly missed by its owner, not least this:
As you can see, this is a tiny toy jug from a child's toy tea set, or possibly a doll's house piece, about 2cm across. Provisionally identified as 18th or 19th century, it is made of lead, as many toys were, well into the 20th century. It is as beautifully decorated as a full size version would be.
You can see why we love our work!
