Extending/Enhancing GroovyNodeBuilder

 *
Often-times people need there own assembly commands that are needed
 * for extending/enhancing the node builder tree.  The perfect example of this
 * is <tt>DynaopGroovyNodeBuilder</tt> which provides a new vocabulary for
 * the groovy node builder with terms such as 'aspect', 'pointcut', etc.

 *
GroovyNodeBuilder provides two primary ways of enhancing the nodes supported
 * by the groovy builder: {@link org.nanocontainer.script.NodeBuilderDecorationDelegate}
 * and special node handlers {@link BuilderNode}.
 * Using NodeBuilderDecorationDelegate is often a preferred method because it is
 * ultimately script independent.  However, replacing an existing GroovyNodeBuilder's
 * behavior is currently the only way to replace the behavior of an existing
 * groovy node handler.

Review: Chip Taylor – The Slaughtered Lamb, London October 5th 2016
October 25, 2016 reprobatemagazine Review Comments Off on Review: Chip Taylor – The Slaughtered Lamb, London October 5th 2016
"How does that next line go, Darius? And remind me, which album's it on again?"
Despite the underlying implications of both questions (senior moments and faltering memory) the very act of being asked them by a musician for whom I hold unwavering respect nonetheless constitutes one of the greatest honours I've ever been awarded in my 20-plus years of doing this so-called 'job', let alone the joy of actually hearing him play said request- titled, in case anyone's interested, I Swear To God Your Honour and originating from his 1972 masterpiece Gasoline.
But that's what you get when dealing with an artist like Chip Taylor- a pervading sense of informality, non-conformism and direct communication, musician to audience, that most so-called 'troubadours' misplaced somewhere in the folds of their own egos decades ago. Here tonight, within the cosy environs of the Slaughtered Lamb (a venue I've never visited before, but certainly now intend to at some stage revisit) the concept of the 'setlist' exists largely as a guideline only: sure, Chip has several tunes from his excellent new outing Little Brothers lined up to play, and play them he does (one in particular detailing a humorous outing recently enjoyed in hometown NYC with noted siblings Barry and Jon Voight) but he's not above taking endless streams of requests as long as both he and electric guitarist John Platania can remember how to play them. You sure as damnit don't get that from Dylan – hell, even Martin Carthy has been seen to blanch at such unabashed participation…
For those unaware, yes you did read that right: Chip (real name James Voight) is the brother of Jon Voight. Moreover, whereas other similar associations 'twixt musicians and actors have either remained ambiguous (like between Sweet vocalist Brian Connolly and alleged 'brother' Mark McManus) or gone unmentioned despite being screamingly obvious to everyone (Larry and Russ Tamblyn) theirs is a brotherhood of which Chip is openly proud: when he repeatedly refers to both Jon and Barry (a respected geologist and the eldest of the three) throughout the show, it's not to name-drop or curry favour, but simply because they are his family and as far s he's concerned, their achievements deserve public acknowledgement. Which they do.
Granted, he freely admits that these days, he and Jon exist on quite opposite sides of the political spectrum- but that's what happens when human beings develop these things called 'opinions', and if you're going to let such vagaries come between you and someone you've known all your life, I suggest taking a long cold look in the mirror before working out who it is you really need to be criticising. Furthermore, though like most folk singers, Chip is of the liberal-leaning persuasion, at no point tonight does he preach, hector or thrust his opinions at you. OK, maybe I personally could have done without the slightly-too-hippy-for-comfort strains of new number Refugee Children (which not only jarred with his otherwise lugubrious outlook but bore, with its plaintive melody and massed chorus, an uneasy resemblance to the type of hymnal meanderings enjoyed by my Aunt's born-again Christian singing group) but I guess out of an entire sheet, one strike is excusable.
Lest we forget, at 76 (though looking more like 64) Chip is in many ways the epitome of the true contrarian- and while that accolade in no way renders him impervious to criticism, it does at least allow more leniency than one might bestow upon other performers. For a start, as show-stopping closer Wasn't Born In Tennessee explains, he's been writing country songs since about 1959, yet has spent 90 percent of his life in his native New York: as if that weren't perverse enough, he's the author of one of the five most widely-covered rock songs of all time (Wild Thing, purveyed tonight with dirgey, lowdown, bluesy swagger) another one that's done the rounds a fair bit (Angel Of The Morning, its gospel-tinged harmonies provided tonight by his road manager's mildly embarrassed daughter) and a third which we sadly don't get this evening (the Hollies' I Can't Let Go) yet 90 percent of the people on most streets from Manhattan to Milton Keynes have still probably never heard of him. By that token alone, he should be in line for some form of Clandestinity Award.
He's also done his fair share of drinking, gave up live performance and songwriting for most of the late 70s, 80s and 90s to become a 'professional gambler' (something he now freely admits was a bad idea) and even that wasn't his first descent into radical whimsy, having attempted during his early career to quit music for a career in golf. Then, all of a sudden, in the mid 90s, he resurfaced, often working with much younger artists in the 'alt country' or 'anti folk' vein: four years ago, at an age where most songwriters would have long settled into comfortable respectability, he released an album entitled Fuck All The Perfect People, the bittersweet title track of which forms the first section of this evening's encore. Mournful without being morose, melancholy without being moribund, it's the kind of song designed to instil distinguished yet rabidly defiant thoughts of quiet rebellion in the listener- and that's precisely what it does.
More to the point, the fact that he only occasionally swears whilst relating any number of fascinating anecdotes (including witnessing the birth of rock'n'roll on his parents' TV in his Yonkers home aged 14 and realising for the first time exactly what he wanted to do with his life) yet is still able to openly drop a song with such blatantly profane language into his set with casual abandon actually speaks more volumes about his unique muse than he's probably consciously aware of. As does, without wanting to sound in any way elitist, the fact that rather than settle for the easy option and fill his performance with an endless string of hits as covered by Johnny Tillotson, Jackie DeShannon, Janis Joplin (much like Jimmy Webb, you can fling an arrow into the last 50 years of rock and roll and sooner or later find someone who's recorded a Taylor composition) he's much happier riffling through the deepest, darkest cuts of his back catalogue and eagerly reminding us of his validity with several selections of more recent material.
Make no mistake, Chip will never be a heritage act: whether he's still, at this late stage of his life, a reprobate is open to interpretation, but as nice a bloke as he is, and as appreciative as he is of his fans' enthusiasm, he's also clearly unconcerned as to whether or not he receives approbation from the world at large. Which, naturally, makes me love him all the more- and if I'm that badass when I'm 76, I'll consider myself to have finally done something right. In 2016, Chip Taylor simply is: long may he continue to be. Especially as he's promised to play Lightnin' for me next year once he remembers the chords…

Q: Trouble understanding why a new temporary TreeNode has to be created when trying to invert a binary tree public class Solution {
        public TreeNode invertTree(TreeNode root) {
        if(root == null) return null;
            TreeNode tmp = root.left;
            root.left = invertTree(root.right);
            root.right = invertTree(tmp);
            return root;
        }
}

I do not understand why the above solution works but the below solution does not.
public class Solution {
        public TreeNode invertTree(TreeNode root) {
        if(root == null) return null;
            root.left = invertTree(root.right);
            root.right = invertTree(root.left);
            return root;
        }
}

Will someone please elaborate on why there has to a temporary TreeNode in order for the program to work?

A: After the second assignment you assign root.right to root.left but the previous line sets root.left to be root.right and therefore your root.right equals itself.

A: First of all, the first snippet doesn't create a new TreeNode. It just stores a reference to the original left child of the root.
If you don't keep that reference (as in the second snippet), you are losing the reference to the original left sub-tree of the root, since you assign to root.left the result of inverting the right sub-tree (in root.left = invertTree(root.right);), so invertTree(root.left) doesn't operate on the original left sub-tree of the root.
Another way to look at it - the reason for the temp variable is similar to the reason why a temporary variable is required in order to swap two variables.

Q: ASP.net URL rewrite based off query string ID Hey everyone I am trying to figure out how to re write a url such as www.mywebsit.com/Articles/newsInfo.aspx?id=3 to www.mywebisite.com/Articles/My-News-Title.aspx
I don't know if I am misunderstanding something but below is the code i have and nothing seems to be happening. The URL stays the same.
Sub Application_BeginRequest(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
    Dim currPath As String = Request.Url.ToString

    If currPath.IndexOf("Articles") <> -1 And currPath.IndexOf("?np=") <> -1 Then
        currPath = currPath.Substring(currPath.IndexOf("?np=") + 4)
        Dim connectionString As String = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("MyConString").ConnectionString
        Dim myreader As System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader
        Using myConnection As New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(connectionString)
            Try
                myConnection.Open()
                Dim myCommand As New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand()

                myCommand.CommandType = Data.CommandType.Text
                myCommand.CommandText = "SELECT TheNewsTitle FROM TheNews WHERE TheNewsId=" & currPath.Replace("'", "''")
                myCommand.Connection = myConnection

                myreader = myCommand.ExecuteReader
                If myreader.HasRows Then
                    myreader.Read()
                    HttpContext.Current.RewritePath("~/Articles/" & myreader.GetValue(0).ToString.Replace(" ", "-") & ".aspx")
                    myreader.Close()

                End If

                myConnection.Close()
                myCommand.Dispose()
                myConnection.Dispose()

            Catch ex As Exception
                myConnection.Close()
                myConnection.Dispose()
            End Try
        End Using
    End If
End Sub

The code never errors out so i don't understand what is going on.

A: Are you trying to do actual URL Rewriting ? In other words - you want the links in your site to look like

www.mywebsite.com/Articles/My-News-Title.aspx

and be processed by

www.mywebsite.com/Articles/newsInfo.aspx?id=3

yes ?

This represents Phase 1 of Celadon's major investment project in Georgia.
"As the top state for business, supporting innovation and removing unnecessary hurdles that prevent companies from solving problems remains a key priority of my administration," said Governor Kemp. "Celadon choosing Georgia for their North American headquarters, along with a state-of-the-art recycling and advanced manufacturing facility, highlights our state's ability to recruit companies on the cutting edge of their respective industries. Partnering with our robust economic development efforts at the state and local levels – Savannah, the Port, and our coastal region are magnets for jobs and investment!"
In addition to establishing a North American headquarters and a recycled brown pulp manufacturing facility, Celadon will open a second production line of its recycling and manufacturing operations during Phase 2 of its expansion to Georgia. Additionally, the company has opened a dry processing plant for clean old corrugated cardboard (OCC), and plans to establish a logistics operation in Chatham County to facilitate its logistical needs.
"The State of Georgia, the Georgia Ports Authority, and the Savannah Economic Development Authority have made our project possible," said Tim Zosel, CEO of Celadon Development Corporation. "The teams are incredibly proactive and we could not have developed this project without their support."
Celadon companies process old corrugated cardboard and waste paper into clean commodity products for export. The Celadon Development Corporation plant in Savannah will produce 450,000 tons of product per year from each operation line. When fully built, it is expected that the plant will produce 900,000 tons of product per year. Once both phases of Celadon's project are complete along with its dry processing plant, the company expects to export approximately 87,000 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) through the Port of Savannah annually.
"Today's announcement that manufacturer Celadon will be locating in the Savannah region with a new state-of-the-art facility and their North American headquarters that will create substantial investment and job opportunities in the Savannah region is great news," said Savannah Economic Development Authority President and CEO Trip Tollison. "They have a great plan and tremendous potential to grow and we look forward to Celadon being a part of our community."
Celadon opened its 65,000-square-foot dry processing manufacturing facility at 48 Artley Road in Savannah this month. The company is hiring for truck drivers as well for positions in manufacturing, production, and administrative services.
"At the Georgia Ports Authority, we are proud to support domestic production and jobs for Georgians," said GPA Executive Director Griff Lynch. "We're happy to welcome Celadon to the Peach State and to the community of exporters who rely on the Port of Savannah."
Director Ashley Varnum represented the Georgia Department of Economic Development's (GDEcD) Global Commerce division on this project in partnership with the Savannah Economic Development Authority, Georgia Ports Authority, and Georgia Power.
"This is another great example of the private sector innovating to tackle the problems of today, which in turn, is creating the jobs of the tomorrow. While utilizing our port assets and unmatched logistics network, Celadon's state-of-the-art recycling and advanced manufacturing facility will create a closed loop recycling process that will prevent hundreds of thousands of tons of corrugated cardboard waste from entering landfills," said GDEcD Commissioner Pat Wilson. "I am excited that Celadon chose to invest in Savannah, and I'm confident the company will continue to thrive and create green jobs of the future right here in Georgia."
About Celadon
Celadon is a joint venture partnership of Kamine Development Corporation Sustainable Infrastructure ("KDC") and Nicollet Industries ("Nicollet") formed to deploy large-scale recycled brown pulp infrastructure across North America to create a closed-loop, waste-free industry segment while leveraging its significant experience in the development, financing, construction and operation of industrial projects.

Space Rangers (Russian: Космические рейнджеры) is a multi-genre (turn-base strategy, text quest, arcade)  computer game by the Russian company Elemental Games, released by 1C Company in 2002. It is critically acclaimed and popular in its home country, Finland and parts of Eastern Europe, although not so popular elsewhere due to lack of marketing. In 2004, 1C Company published a sequel, Space Rangers 2: Dominators.

The game is dynamic and open-ended in a fashion that has been compared to Elite and Star Control 2. Trade prices on planets follow supply and demand, the wars are ongoing non-scripted conflicts, computer-controlled ships have individual capabilities, goals and relations, etc. There are even several ways to complete the storyline. The games have turn-based space travel and combat, optional shoot 'em up sequences and occasional bits of text adventure. This game was not released in America in its own box, but in some special edition containers of Space Rangers 2: Rise of the Dominators.

Plot
In Space  Rangers, a relatively peaceful interstellar coalition is invaded by a powerful enemy; the organic  warships of the Klissans. The player is a Ranger, one of a group of non-military  volunteers who are given small ships, free rein and the task of helping  to battle, understand and ultimately defeat the menace.

Background
Long ago, the now wise and peaceful Gaal race was very aggressive and was creating a huge number of colonies. Due to large space distances it created a hyperjumper which could make holes in the galaxy. Soon one of the colonies met with the Klissan fleet. Although Gaal colony ships tried to communicate with these Klissan ships they failed to do so and were destroyed. Soon Makhpella, the mothership of all Klissans and Klissan fleet, invaded all outer Gaal colonies. The Gaal colony fleet was completely helpless and in order to save the original Gaal territories and the Gaal motherland itself from invasion, they decided not to jump back which would have given the Makhpella an opportunity to trace their route, but to blow up the remaining other colonies using the hyperjumper instead.

Not very long ago, everything was started by a Peleng captain called Rachekhan, one of the commanders of the Peleng fleet. He was thrown out of the fleet and became a pirate. Since he had access to secret documents and weaponry he stole a hyperjumper. While travelling with it he met Makhpella. It considered Rachekhan's pirate fleet an enemy and started chasing it. During this chase, Rachekhan and the Klissan fleets went through sectors colonized by the interstellar coalition which enabled Makhpella to spot the IC sectors, gaining knowledge of its locations, and identify all IC races as foes. So the war started.

Races
Space Rangers features 6 races in total: the Interstellar Coalition races and the Klissans. The Interstellar Coalition consists of 5 races: Maloqs, Pelengs, Humans, Faeyans and Gaals. The Klissans are the new and unresearched form of life.

Maloq
The Maloq race is very strong physically, but mentally weak. They are physically very big and eat a lot of food. Their equipment is the cheapest but it is also the most delicate, and deteriorates much quicker than other races'. The race is named after the C standard library function malloc.

Peleng
The four handed Pelengs are usually very artful and Peleng criminals are the most successful. Also Pelengs have the strongest intelligence agency called "Dzuhallag". Peleng equipment is the 2nd cheapest and the 2nd most delicate.

Human
Humans are the best economists. If not for the humans there would be no unified interstellar currency called "credits". Human equipment is in the middle of the spectrum for both price and robustness.

Faeyan
Faeyans are very good technicians and scientists. Faeyans are hermaphrodites. Their equipment is the 2nd most expensive, and 2nd only in robustness.

Gaal
The three eyed Gaals are leading philosophers and scientists. This race is the wisest compared to the other Interstellar Coalition races. Their equipment is the most expensive and the most robust.

Focussing Ultrasonic Guided Waves for In-Situ NDT of Pipes
Employing the Focussing of Ultrasonic Guided Waves for the In-Situ Non-Destructive Testing of Pipes
Philip P Catton and Davide Kleiner
Paper presented at Conferenza Nazionale sulle Prove non Distruttive Monitoraggio Diagnostica, 11th Congresso Nazionale dell'AIPnD, 13-15 October 2005.
Over recent years, Ultrasonic Guided Waves have been successfully used in the non-destructive, in-situ inspection of pipes.
TWI Ltd is currently researching methods of 'focussing' guided waves at an arbitrary distance along the pipe and circumferential position. Delays are applied to a Teletest transducer tool, facilitating a greater concentration of energy at a given point, and hence a greater reflection from changes in cross sectional area. More sensitivity in the results can thus be obtained.
The procedure also allows a three dimensional plot of the pipe surface to be compiled, showing response amplitude against axial distance along the pipe and angular position. This gives an intuitive representation of the findings. In doing so, more quantitative information about defects can be drawn from test data.
The technique has been proven both in the laboratory and in the field, using simulated and real defects. The field test results corresponded with those of radiography tests conducted on the pipe. Investigations using finite element analyses have also been carried out, thus validating the experimental results.
For some years ultrasonic guided waves have been used for non destructive evaluation of pipelines (see [1-5] for general reading on guided wave theory and recent practice). This technique was originally pioneered by TWI Ltd, using rings of transducers forced onto the pipe by means of an inflatable bladder constrained by a clamp. This system, known as Teletest, uses either the T(0,1) wave mode (for torsional testing) or the L(0,2) wave mode (for longitudinal testing). A completely axisymmetrical wave pulse is excited and travels down the length of the pipe. When the wave front hits a change in cross sectional area at a defect, mode conversion takes place and a portion of the energy is reflected back as a flexural mode. The various orders of flexurals have lobes of energy at differing angular positions as they propagate the length of the pipe.
Research is now being conducted into transmitting different flexural modes in a manner such that the lobes of energy converge at a specified distance along a pipe, at a specified angular position. In doing so, greater energy is concentrated at the focal point, and thus more energy is reflected back to the tool. This not only yields higher signal to noise ratios, but also allows information about a specific point on a pipe to be gained. Sweeping the length and circumference of the pipe in this manner allows a c-scan of the pipe surface to be constructed.
In order to achieve a focus, the Teletest tool needs to be split into segments of transducers, controlled by independent channels - similar to a phased array. Time delays can then be exerted on the firing of each segment. These delays are specific for test frequency, pipe material and geometry (diameter and wall thickness), and focal position (both axial distance from the transducer and angular position around the pipe).
Further to the delays, Teletest is capable of firing the different transducers with different amplitudes. As such, the different segments can be fired with different signal output levels in such a manner so as to reinforce the focussing effect.
Currently, Teletest is divided into either four or eight segments (quadrants or octants respectively), allowing the circumference to be scanned in 45° increments. Studies are underway into the feasibility of further dividing the tool into twelve segments, to allow the focal point to be rotated in 30° increments.
Fig.1. Focus on a plain pipe using T(0,1) mode
The finite element analysis software Abaqus has been used to verify the technique. Figure 1 clearly shows how a concentration of energy occurs at a given position (top dead centre, in this example) on a pipe. Further modelling work is currently underway to better understand the properties of the focal spot,such as quantifying its size and shape.
Experimental results
Tests in the laboratory on welds and both artificial and natural defects using the focussing technique have been conducted, as have tests in the field on pipes still in service. Both laboratory and field tests have yielded promising results.
Fig.2. Focus on 8" Schedule 80 pipe with notch clearly detected
Figure 2 shows a c-scan of an 8" schedule 80 pipe with a small saw cut. The saw cut (shown in Figure 3) represents less than 4% cross sectional area of the pipe. It is clear to see the location of the saw cut (between 0° top dead centre and 45°) and the end of the pipe on the plot.
Fig.3. 8" Schedule 80 pipe showing notch detail
Figure 4 gives a three dimensional plot of a similar 8" schedule 80 pipe. Here, a weld was present 5.3m from the tool. The three dimensional representation clearly shows the location of two symmetrical features - the girth weld and the end of the pipe 8.4m from the tool.
Fig.4. 8" Schedule 80 pipe showing girth weld
Figure 5 shows a 16" pipe with a 3" branch (representing roughly 5% cross-sectional area loss). The branch can clearly be seen on the plot, as can the location of a girth weld and a flange. This test was conducted while the pipe was still in service.
Fig.5. 16" pipe showing branch, weld and flange
Note how the symmetrical features in Figure 4 are present at all angles (from 180° to 180°), whereas the defect in Figure 2 and the branch in Figure 5 are shown only at the appropriate angle (0° to 45° in Figure 2 and 0° in Figure 5). The 'shadow' of the branch in Figure 5 causes the lower signals at 0° at the responses from the weld and the flange.
Other field tests have been carried in tandem to radiography inspection. The results from the focussing technique accurately agreed with those of the radiography.
Experimental work is continuing to further investigate the potential of this novel technology, including engineering software to automate the technique, and improved methods of displaying the data.

WOM Features – Misery Index / Lemuria / Festerday
Dezembro 12, 2018 Fernando Ferreira	0 Comments	Death Metal, Festerday, Lemuria, Misery Index, Symphonic Black Metal
Misery Index release first new track of upcoming album 'Rituals of Power'
Death Metal extremists MISERY INDEX are now premiering the very first track taken from their upcoming album 'Rituals of Power'. The new offering is slated for release on March 08th, 2019 via Season of Mist. The song "New Salem" is now streaming below:
MISERY INDEX comment on the track: "New Salem sums up perfectly the lyrical vitriol and musical dynamics featured across "Rituals of Power". We wanted to introduce the album, not just with a straight-ahead ripping tune, but with a smack to the face; it's a wake up call for any concerned citizen and a code red for civilization. Ugly times call for stark and uncomfortable statements, and New Salem castigates the faults and ineptitude's of our broken media system and the Crucible-esque, witch-hunt culture it fuels."
Pre-order: http://smarturl.it/MiseryRituals
LEMURIA release new video
The Belgian symphonic black metal outfit LEMURIA has released the official video for the new single "A Plague Upon The Land" – enjoy it in all its glory below:
The video was directed, filmed & edited by Bram Mervillie. The song itself is also featured on the band's upcoming album, "The Hysterical Hunt", but the video's version of the song is slightly different from the album version.
"The Hysterical Hunt" was mixed and mastered by Yarne Heylen at Project Zero Studio. None other than Kris Verwimp created the album's artwork. Alexandra Kastrinakis (Daedric Tales) contributed guest vocals and the Belgian actor Herbert Flack acts as narrator on LEMURIA's upcoming album.
The album will be available as CD, stream and download, and is available for pre-order here » https://lnk.to/thehystericalhunt
The record release show will take place on February 15, 2019 at the Jeugdcentrum Vizit in Wilrijk, Belgium.
Festerday release music video for "Kill Your Truth'
Finnish death metal outfit FESTERDAY have released a music video for the song "Kill Your Truth". The track is taken from the full length debut 'iihtallan', to be released on January 4, 2019 via Season of Mist Underground Activists. You can watch the vide below:
Following FESTERDAY's first EP 'Cadaveric Virginity' on Season of Mist, comes the bludgeoning debut of these cult death metallers, titled 'iihtallan'. The album, to be released on January 4th, will ensure that 2019 kicks off with a loud bang for (old school) death metal fans.
Starting out in 1989, Pietarsaari, Finland, FESTERDAY was inspired by early, classic death metal acts and named their band after a song on 'Reek of Putrefaction' by CARCASS.
Early on in their career, the death metal formation released three demos, in truly laconic Finnish style simply entitled 'Demo I' (1991). 'Demo II' (1992), and 'Demo III' (1992) that gained cult status. 'Demo II' was also released on a split with CARNIFEX. In 1993, the group disbanded.
This could have been the end, but FESTERDAY regrouped in 2013, remastered all their previous material with Sami "Jämy" Jämsen at Studio Perkele in November 2014, and released everything on '…the Four Stages of Decomposition…' (2015). Since then, the Finns have continuously worked on their craft, by releasing various splits, compilations and EP's.
It may have taken some time for FESTERDAY to realize their debut full length, but now that it's here, the metal scene is in for something wicked. Merging their old school death metal roots with black metal and punk, the veteran musicians aren't afraid to push the borders of extreme music and refuse to conform to what is standardized in death metal. Brace yourself for 'iihtallan'!

If your business uses vehicles as part of its day to day operations – perhaps to visit clients, or for deliveries – then every minute those vehicles spend on the road provides an opportunity. Over the course of a year, it's likely that thousands of people, ranging from other car drivers to pedestrians, will see your vehicles as they go about their daily business. As a result, you have the chance to raise your company's profile – but only if your vehicles are recognisable and identifiable.
Imagine that you're out running errands. You're sitting at a traffic stop, calmly waiting to proceed, with two vehicles in front of you. One of those vehicles is a dull red colour; the kind of car colour we've all seen a thousand times. The other vehicle is a bright, lurid pink. Which vehicle are you going to notice and remember? It's the bright pink one, of course.
Brightly coloured vehicles stand out as unusual, so if you're looking to raise the profile of your business in the eyes of the general public, opting for unusual colours is a must.
Personalised plates tend to catch the eye of pedestrians and road users, primarily because they're unusual. We're all used to seeing standard plates, so we don't focus on them, but personalised number plates are far more likely to make people look twice – which, of course, is precisely what you want.
As for what you should put on your business vehicles' personalised plates; well, that's largely up to you, but if you can tie the personalisation to your business in some way – PL4NN3R for a party planning company, for example – then you'll likely see the best results.
When considering vehicle decals, most business owners focus on ensuring that their decals are informative – and there's definitely something to be said for this approach. Ensuring that your business vehicles display, at the bare minimum, your business' phone number and website address is highly advisable.
However, decals don't just have to be informative; they can also be used to draw attention too. You could use images related to your business, but puns are likely to be the best choice. We've all seen social media posts featuring amusing puns created by businesses, which is perhaps the most natural form of marketing you could ever hope to achieve. So keep it light, keep it groan-funny, and hope that a savvy social media user decides to snap a photo to share with their followers.
The time that your business vehicles spend on the road does not just need to be time spent performing one of the core operations of your business; it's also a chance to promote your business and increase recognition of your brand. By giving one – or all – of the options above a try, you should be able to raise your business' profile with relatively little effort in future.

The bright kid in black
nestorgonzalez8January 30, 2017
Nestor Gonzales is a senior at East Los Angeles Renaissance Academy, one of the high schools that are on the Torres campus.
Gonzales isn't really much known for anything, his life was simple: just a normal high school student who loves music, soccer and spending time with family. Music has always been in his life, one genre that he's been listening to since he was a kid is Metal. He says that if it wasn't for that type of music, his personality wouldn't be what it is now.
He's a huge soccer fanatic too; he sees it every day and plays it with family and friends. His father is behind his passion for music and soccer, and has been a fan for the Spanish team Real Madrid. The players had shown him that no matter how behind you are, never give up on what you really want; and it's an inspiration that Gonzales will be holding on to for the rest of his life.
One accomplish he's really proud of is being in Torres' soccer team since freshman year; not because he's on the team but it makes him a scholar athlete.
Not having much growing up is what made him who he is today: very shy and antisocial he may say; but he always preferred working alone.
Gonzales is currently working with Public Matters, an organization that wants to bring change in the community in a positive way; he believes Los Angeles can become a much better place than it is now.
In the future, Gonzales plans on studying medicine and becoming a pediatrician. It's a dream career he has been dreaming about since he was a little kid. He hopes of fulfilling his dream in becoming a doctor.
He wants to attend the most prestigious universities, and has sights on one university since he was a little boy: the University of Southern California. USC has always been his dream school. He also plans on going to Keck School of Medicine, which is the university's medical school.
He has always wanted a career in which he can help out others and save lives has always loved helping others out. He wants to be someone they can look up to.

This past week we were able to get away for a few days vacation at our family cabin. About a 4 hour drive away, our cabin has been in my husbands family for about 50 years. Aside from a few renovations, much of the cabin is still the same and old family photos line the walls. Our kids love our vacations at the cabin. They look forward to it all year long, sometimes going as far as attempting to pack their suitcases a few months in advance. With very limited cell phone and internet service, it's the perfect place to go to relax. Unfortunately, it's also the perfect place to overindulge in food and drink and we often come back feeling a little sluggish. This week, it's time to get back to our routines, including more fruits and vegetables, not so many unhealthy snacks, and perhaps, just maybe, a little less wine.
The best way to get back on track, I figured was to head to the market to stock up on some fresh produce. I love the market in the summer. All the fresh, colourful fruits and veggies make me feel like a kid in a candy store. That's how this summer market salad was born. With a rainbow of colours to choose from, I chose them all. I then had to figure out what to do with them. Sweet, delicious and fresh, this salad is summer in a bowl. I hope you love it as much as I did.
Add the first 5 ingredients to a salad bowl and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining ingredients. Drizzle over the salad mixture and toss gently. Serve immediately.
Thank you, Lauren. We're very fortunate to have this cabin. It's a great place for the kids (and us) to get away from technology a bit and closer to nature 🙂 Enjoy your weekend!
This salad sounds absolutely delicious and healthy. Love the ingredients and adding all the fruits to it. Thanks for sharing on Real Food Fridays. Pinned & twitted.
Just a note to let you know that I have chosen your post as one of my features for this weeks Real Food Fridays blog hop that goes live tonight @ 7pm EST. Thanks for being part of Real Food Fridays and sharing with up!
There is no place as special as a family vacation home with memories! Your salad looks sensational in both presentation and taste! wow.. gottta make this one. Pinning ti right nowl.
Me, too! It's so hard getting back on track, lol. Thanks for stopping by!
sure! It was nice to meet you!


Heathcare spend is predicted to reach $5.4 trillion dollars in less than 8 years. As surgeons and clinicians we believe that patients are our most valuable resource for improving the delivery of care and reducing healthcare costs. We know that helping patients understand the unique variations in their health is a crucial step towards providing the personal empowerment that patients need when facing surgery. Studies repeatedly prove that patients who actively prepare for surgery by managing their health are better positioned for optiminal recovery and improved quality of life. At the heart of our research and development is our mission to elevate patients as partners in care.
Prenovo delivers scientifically validated technology providers need to reduce costs by 25% and improve patient outcomes. Our web-based solution, Prenovo Prepare™, engages patients in preparation for surgery and recovery beyond the clinical setting with an 80% engagement rate.
Prenovo was created from many years of successfully helping people improve their health before surgery. Today we continue the same mission. You or someone you care about may have an upcoming surgery and we want to offer you these same results using PrepareFree — available now.
At Prenovo we are moving diagnosis and treatment protocols from static patient records to actionable choices within patient lives. We deliver technology that enhances the patient-provider relationship with evidence-based teaching tools for shared decision-making. Our web-based platform supports patient self-management beyond the provider office or hospital.
Prenovo is a healthcare company redefining patient care with personalized medicine, evidence-based guidelines, and patient engagement.
Care teams use Prepare to assess risk and optimize patient health from consult through recovery. An early version of our technology was deployed in a 2014 University of Michigan Health System pilot study optimizing pre-surgical health. The study of 175 general surgery patients resulted in 80% engagement and 25% savings in reimbursement, cost, and length of stay. Today our platform delivers patients and providers even better coordinated care solutions.

Prepare integrates evidence-based algorithms to assess the patient and then engage the patient and provider to reduce risk, to lower cost, to shorten length of stay, and to enable patients to improve their health.
This solution was born from our deep interest in understanding how differences in muscle, bone, fat, and organs impact outcomes. We started by measuring very detailed body indicators from medical imaging and found compelling markers that provide insights into success after surgery, response to treatment, and disease progression.
Together, with our partner company Applied Morphomics, we are extending our commitment to making a difference with knowledge to design interventions, improve understanding, and make people's lives better.
Prepare combines patient education and patient activation. Access to health data and care plans inform patients on their role in their health. Checklists, activity measurements, interactive reminders, and surveys empower patients with tools that enable them to be an active partner in their care journey. Engaged patients deliver insights beyond the hospital walls and enable providers to deliver truly personalized care.
Prepare coordinates clinical decision-making, personalized care plan activities, and patient engagement from consult through recovery. Patients, families, and care teams collaborate to coordinate care that delivers the greatest impact on the continued health of the patient.

The Blended Axis in Tableau is very useful to compare two measure values against the same axis. In this article, we will show you, How to Create a Blended Axis in Tableau with an example. For this, we are going to use the Data Source we created in our previous article. So, Please visit Data Labels in Tableau Reports article to understand the Data Source.
In order to show Blended Axis in Tableau First, Drag and Drop the Year from Dimension Region to Column Shelf. Next, Drag and Drop the Sales Amount from Measures Region to Rows Shelf. Because it is a Measure value, Sales Amount will be aggregated to default Sum. Once you drag them, following Chart report will be generated.
In this example we want to compare Sales Amount against Total Product Cost so, Drag and Drop one more measure value i.e., Total Product Cost from Measures Region to Rows Shelf. Since it is a Measure value, Total Product Cost will be aggregated to default Sum.
The following screenshot will show you the tableau report after the blended axis.
You can directly drag the measure item from measures region to axis directly as we shown below.
In order to add analytics, please navigate to the Analytics tab, and double-click on the Forecast option under the Model section.
Hope you understood the creation of Tableau Blended Axis.


Well, last night in the House of Representatives we saw a faint glimmer of responsibility from the Liberal and National parties. Last night in the House they relented on blocking essential government measures which were stamping out rorting of welfare benefits, and which were contained in the bill which was delivering some justice to those workers in the not-for-profit sector. But this was only a faint glimmer of economic responsibility, because bills worth $280-odd million are still being delayed in the Senate. And of course the delay of these bills - the impact on the surplus - threatens inflation, threatens higher interest rates. It's essential the Government passes its Budget in full.
So, today the Liberal and National parties could put their hand up and act economically responsibly by bringing those bills to the floor of the Senate and passing them. At the moment they're being delayed deliberately by committee and the cost to the surplus of that delay alone is $280-odd million.
So, they should stop their economic vandalism. They should pass these bills in the Senate so we can have some certainty with the Budget.
Why did you block Sinosteel from acquiring Murchison Metals, at least for the next three months?
I think you should actually look closely at the stories that are published today because essentially the situation is this: there has been an interim order issued by the Foreign Investment Review Board. That interim order actually establishes a firm timetable for final decision. So, that final decision will be taken in the next 90 days. What there is out there now, issued by the Foreign Investment Review Board, is a firm timetable. I don't comment on these matters whilst they are being handled by the Foreign Investment Review Board and the applicant, because all of those matters are commercial-in-confidence. So, when the final decision is taken, I certainly will be making public comment. All I can say for now is that the Government will take its decisions in Australia's interest under the foreign investment guidelines that we've published. We welcome foreign investment but the national interest guidelines also apply, and I'll be happy to make final comment once a decision has been taken after all the Foreign Investment Review Board processes have gone through in up to 90 days' time.
(inaudible) ... there a delay involved here?
As I said, I'm not going to talk about individual cases. But what we have today is an interim order that establishes a very firm timetable - a timetable of 90 days.
(inaudible) ... you'll face a hostile Senate after July 1.
We'll work with the new Senate after July 1. But there's one thing we really need - we really need the certainty of having this Budget passed in full. A $22 billion surplus is absolutely essential to put downward pressure on inflation, and in the long term, put downward pressure on interest rates. The economic vandalism we've seen from the Coalition via the Senate, and again in the House of Representatives, should not be tolerated because it really puts uncertainty into the process. We need to have this surplus delivered, it's essential in the fight against inflation, and the Liberal and National parties ought to today finally pass the Budget in full.
You're not going to get the bills through today, though. That's the reality, isn't it?
I don't think they can be let off the hook for this act of economic vandalism. There is absolutely no reason to be holding these bills up in the Senate and costing the surplus around $280 million just for the delay.
(inaudible) ... the national interest in terms of foreign investment. What are the risks to the national interest of a Chinese-owned company investing too greatly in our resources sector?
I don't comment about individual company applications.
Well, more broadly, we published our foreign investment guidelines last February. We set out the criteria by which we will judge individual applications. We take our decisions in Australia's national interest. We will do that - we do that on a case-by-case basis. What the FIRB has done is gazette an interim order; that will take 90 days. So, there is a very firm timetable for the decision and I will be talking about that decision once it's been taken. But in the meantime, matters to do with individual applications are commercial-in-confidence.
Will the Government act on a CSIRO report that says three million workers will need to be retrained when this carbon emissions trading scheme is introduced?
The Government is already acting when it comes to skills and training, more generally. It's part of the Education Revolution. It's a central part of the proposals that we took to the Australian people at the last election.
But three million workers, are you shocked by those figures?
I haven't read the report so I'm not going to go into the ins and outs of a report that I haven't read.
One commentator said that the current situation with Sinosteel reflects the fact that the Chinese can play in our sandpit, they just can't own it. Is that a fair assessment?
I'm not going to comment about individual applications. I've already made my comments about the application of our national interest test. We welcome foreign investment, we welcome it from everywhere, including from China, but we will apply decisions on a case-by-case basis in the national interest.
Today marks the end of the Democrats' 31 years in the Senate. Do you think it's a loss for Australian politics?
Well, I'm sad to see my old mate, Natasha, go, I've got to say. But over and above that, parties do come and go. No-one's guaranteed a life forever in politics.
Will Labor ever pitch up to Natasha to come and run as a candidate? She'd be a fairly strong candidate, you would've thought, in South Australia.
I'm not going to buy into that. She's just retiring. She's going to go and spend some time with her family. Good on her.
Do you think it was the GST which damaged them beyond repair?
I don't really want to be out here providing a running commentary on the death of the Democrats really.
A Canberra woman has been charged with child neglect. It's the second such case in a week. Should the Government step in, and if it did, what could it actually do to protect children?
I think you'll find if you talk to Families Minister, Jenny Macklin, she has a very comprehensive agenda in this area.


Holidays, ugh.* I don't mean to go all Scrooge on you already. I haven't even decorated for Christmas for christ's sake. But that old familiar holiday anxiety is creeping in....as people start to talk about their joy of all things holiday, I start to get itchy and uncomfortable.
Halloween is pretty stress free, maybe that's why it seems to be getting bigger every year. It's all about candy, costumes and fun. No heavy religious/faith questions or family gatherings.
You must have known I would find a way to put a picture of me in the purple wig in again.
Halloween is about putting on a mask and pretending to be someone you aren't...oh wait that sounds a little like Thanksgiving. Except of course the Thanksgiving mask is a smile. Waaaaah. Oh yeah, that's right, I went there.
Here is my question, are we supposed to be miserable on holidays because that is tradition? Do we HAVE to see the family that makes us hate ourselves?
Remembering some of my favorite Thanksgivings, they all involve spending the holiday with strangers. Serving turkey at a homeless shelter, dinner with a friend who fed her pals who had no family in town, watching the Macy's parade on TV while on a trip to Amsterdam....the real common denominator for the happiness factor was no mother.
I love celebrating with strangers. People with no expectations or emotional ammunition.
Problem is, now I have this whole little family here that is looking to me to set the tone. "Why don't we visit Grammy?" the little Cindy Lou Who-like voices ask.
When we get together with my mother (aka Grammy), my kids have this amazing compassion and intuition. They embody acceptance. My neck is full of knots and their arms are open and full of love. Granted, they have been protected and shielded from any harsh words or attacks my mother could hurl their way. And they see her drug-induced slurring and falling asleep at the dinner table all as just a part of being old and sick.
Bottom line, when I am around my mother I cannot relax. Some people have advised me to go in with a positive attitude and let things roll off my back. While that is a pleasant way to go about life, it just simply isn't possible for me. There is too much history. Too much pain. It is just all too much. Too much.
I am willing to take care of my mother and help her live a life with dignity. But holiday with her? Not so sure I can handle it.
But it's Thanksgiving, what do I do? What do you think I will do? Probably go, visit and be all itchy and uncomfortable. Because isn't that what the holidays are all about? Isn't it? Holidays, ugh.
*Holiday anxiety disclaimer--it is like a roller coaster and will rise and fall throughout the season. But of course I find much joy in the holidays, how could I not with my four precious children? So no worries, not every post until Christmas will be holiday bashing.
This will be me on the way home from my holiday. For reals.
"I know it. I get it. And I want in."
I love this and I can really relate!!!!
I've been reading every blog post but sometimes have a hard time commenting. I really enjoy and relate to a lot of what you say. Thanks!!!

Olympics Daily Debrief, Day 6 — A Day of Firsts
Laser sailor Tonci Stipanovic secures Croatia's first-ever sailing medal. Plus, USA gets their first race-win of the regatta.
By Lisa Gabrielson
The Rio 2016 Olympic Sailing Competition
Croatia's Tonci Stipanovic's 20-point lead over third place Sam Meech guarantees him a gold or silver medal after Monday's medal race. His hardware is the first sailing Olympic medal won by Croatia.Sailing Energy/World Sailing
It hasn't quite hit Toni Stipanovic yet that on Monday he'll be standing on a podium with a medal around his neck. In the media zone, he rubs his chin pensively as the enormity of his accomplishment is laid in front of him by questioning reporters.
"It was a long journey from the first day," he says. "I know that I sailed a really good regatta from the beginning and, whew, it's really good. It's huge to win this for Croatia. I don't think I yet understand what I did, but it will come."
Australia's Tom Burton, who is guaranteed bronze himself, is the only sailor within striking distance of taking gold from Stipanovic, but the Croatian is guaranteed silver with his point margin (48) ahead of third place Sam Meech from New Zealand.
"The eight points I gave away the other day really came back to get me," says Burton. "It's great to lock a medal away, but I'm sure Tonci will have a plan to lock gold away. I haven't made the plan yet, it's still sinking in right now what we've done."
Burton is guaranteed at least a bronze, but there's a spot open on the podium for a handful of others, including Brazil's Robert Scheidt who is going for a record sixth Olympic medal. The Lasers will contest their medal race on Monday on the Pao de Acucar course.
London Silver medalist Marit Bouwmeester, from the Netherlands, is well in the lead of the Radial class, setting her up for a podium finish to the regatta on Monday. Early in the week she was ten points behind the leader, and now holds an eight-point margin over Denmark's Anne-Marie Rindom. "Everything is still in my own hands," she says of her positions. "It's hard to have a steady series, and my execution improved through the week."Sailing Energy/World Sailing
In the Laser Radial, there are no factual guarantees, but for Netherland's Marit Bouwmeester to lose a podium place would be one of the most major surprises in the history of Olympic sailing. She's 19 points ahead of Belgium's Evi Van Acker, who currently sits in fourth after a serious comeback day today. Van Acker contracted a gastrointestinal illness in July that the Belgian Olympic Committee says she has yet to fully recover from, pointing to the water in Guanabara Bay as a probable culprit. As a result, Van Acker was unable to physically exert herself over extended periods of time. Yesterday, the Radials had a day off from racing and it appears that it did the trick for the London bronze medalist who posted 2-1-5 on her scorecard today.
Denmark's Anne-Marie Rindom lost a hold of her fleet dominance today to Bouwmeester, after a bad start in the first race and a bad call on the second beat to separate from the pack landed her in 22nd. "I made a mistake, and that's it," she says. "I haven't made many mistakes this week and sometimes you just have to make one, apparently, and that was my race." In the second, she also had a bad start, but due to a plastic bag snagging on her centerboard. But, on the second downwind leg, she found her speed, and by the last beat she was "sailing her ass off and hoping for the best." She found it, and goes into the medal race in second overall.
Paris Henken and Helena Scutt, USA, recorded their first Olympic race win today, in the 49er FX. The win was also the first race win for the USA in the regatta.Sailing Energy/World Sailing
If there were a 'race of the day' award in the Olympics, it would go to USA's 49erFX team, Paris Henken and Helena Scutt today. Starting off with a 14th in the day's first contest, they made great use of their time on the live-streaming second race to dial in their speed and fly around the course, taking the lead early and holding on. They fended off Brazils' Martine Grael and Kahena Kunze in the final run to cross the line 16 seconds ahead of the hometown sailors.
That race was nearly a disaster, though. At the start of what would have been race five, Henken and Scutt were on the line when the British team came down on them and hit the American boat. Capsized on the line, Henken and Scutt scrambled to right their boat. In a stroke of luck, there was a general recall, and the Americans were given reprieve. They set back up for the new start, and from there it was all over for the rest of the fleet.
"We had a really good start, got a punch off the line, and it was pretty easy after that," says Henken. "From there it was standard covering skills, making sure we didn't make moves too early to give [Brazil] a chance to get between us and the next mark or the finish."
Henken called the day her picture-perfect sailing day. "We had some waves, so we were pumping the kite downwind and really moving our bodies, playing with it," she says. "Upwind, we could see the puffs coming and could trim the sheet in and out and float our bow higher and higher. It was really a great day to get in tune with the boat. It was fast and fun."
The duo currently sits in ninth overall after six races. They've got a reserve day on the books for tomorrow before their last two days of racing.

The Lab has been busy for the last couple of years designing new products and getting closer to fulfilling the company vision. There have been some roadblocks along the way but we are confident they are behind us. Thank you to our supporters and followers without you guys we would not be able to create.
If you have be watching our journey you probably have an idea of the direction we are going. Ever close now to completing our new mounting system and are very excited to share it!
We have crossed over to making accessories for boards compatible with all types of tech gear.
Wavepools will create a new consistant completely even playing field. The Dummy Surf Binding and Dummy Plug System will push progression by allowing for inverted maneuvers to be performed more consistently on waves. ETA June 2018.
The Dummy Mount 2 Bundle kit is the Ultimate Solution for amazing photos, videos and creating content!
We have arranged all of our brand new most popular products in one easy to buy kit offering our customers the best price to own all of our unique and original gear for your GoPro or favorite action cameras!
We created the Surfy Stick / Mouth Mount combo as a way to carry a grip handle hands free and also easily transfer to get hand held 3rd person POV shots!
The Dummy Mount 2 is Manufactured out of Nylon. A far superior material than what the other Mouth Mounts available on the market are made from. Other designs that hang too low below your chin often snap and fail. The Dummy Mount 2 is pliable and can be bent without breaking! Our 2nd Generation Design offers the the most comfort for your jaw and teeth, the most stable footage by far, breathable on 4 sides, and just looks way cooler!
The Surfy Stick mounts are rugged PLA plastic crafted on a 3D Printer and made by hand. The grip is comfy EVA foam.
As always we can't wait to see the EPIC content you create with Dummy Mounts so don't forget to hashtag #dummymount on social media!
The Dummy Surfy Stick is the result of multiple requests from riders and athletes for a GoPro® Hand Grip that can easily be carried hands free for watersports and other activities.
After many Prototypes using Pool Noodles and trying different lengths and designs, the feedback from riders was that the grip needed to be short and compact while attaching to the Dummy Mouth Mount.
What we have come up with is the complete solution for a Hand Grip that can be carried hands free with your Dummy Mount!
For now the product is available in limited quantity created on our MakerBot Replicator 3D Printer and Hand Made to order while the moulds get made to mass produce the final Dummy Surfy Sticks. These will feature a light weight floaty design with a removable bottom and hollow inside chamber. Colors will be customizable!
Please dont hesitate to email us with any Dummy questions!
We are proud to announce our latest creation, the Dummy Noodle! The major component in the Dummy Noodle mount is the pool noodle float, and thats where it gets its funky name from! When dropped in the water the Dummy Noodle will float on the surface being very easy to spot. The hand grip is soft like a fishing pole. Because the GoPro is mounted to the side of the mount you can achieve great shots without getting the noodle mount in the shot. Final prototypes are being tested and we are scheduled to launch this new product late June.
We will keep you updated when we get more news.
The only way to get the mounts to the pros was to simply go up to them and say hello! At the airport I saw CJ Hobgood, Jordy Smith and Brett Simpson sitting at a table, so I went up and showed them the Dummy Mount and gave them all their own to use (See our Instagram page for pics). Jordy and CJ both posted amazing clips during the contest that they used their Dummy Mounts to capture! I also gave mounts to Miguel Pupo and Alejo Muniz at LAX while we were boarding the plane. Lucky one of my good friends lives a few months of the year on his yacht in Fiji! So we sailed over to Namotu Island and I was able to give mounts to all the competitors that were staying on the island, including the eventual winner of the event Gabriel Medina. Then we went for a surf at Cloudbreak, and I ran into CJ Hobgood again and was able to give him the rest of the mounts for all the competitors staying on Tavarua Island. Many thanks go out to CJ for helping me pass out the Dummy Mounts! Now every member of the ASP top 34 has a Dummy Mount including Kelly Slater! I hope he uses it and we get to see his Point of View!
The first Dummy Mount prototypes were constructed about two years ago. One crisp early fall morning I decided to take my GoPro and new mouth mount out to get some footage. My home break has a reputation and a colorful cast of individuals that surf there on a regular basis. I got some stares because cameras are not popular on good days, but nobody was really grumpy about it. However the heckling started and one of the boys was calling my mouth mount a pacifier/binky.
I have strong connections to New Zealand and am very familiar with the culture down under. In that part of the world a pacifier is called a "dummy" and that is how Dummy Mount got its name.


Pictured is the top part of a cockpit frame that has been chopped up. The two round holes are for attaching the instrument panel rubber mounts.
One way to identify a Boomerang cockpit frame is this code which is stamped on the port upper engine mount lug. 12 means CA-12, G8 means number 8 in Batch G. Unfortunately this code doesn't always match up to the A46 aircraft number, which could be out of sequence. Other methods of identification are the tag on the overturn truss and pencilled A46 numbers on the inside of panels.
12 G8 lines up to A46-93 but is more likely to be from A46-94 More research is needed to confirm this.
