Frozen Secrets (Europa Academy, 1); Myles Christensen
I honestly didn't know that Middle Grade science fiction thrillers were a thing until I started "Frozen Secrets", which follows young Max in a futuristic setting where the nations of the world are colonizing space. Max has a knack for trouble as any burgeoning teenager would, especially as Max really loves adventure and really wants to be a super-spy. He's often the ring-leader with his friends, getting them to go along with his exploits, because if Max smells something even vaguely like a conspiracy or a new place to explore, this young man is going to insert himself into it, consequences be damned! It's a very endearing story, and I think MOST actual middle grade readers will enjoy it.
This was a fun, quick book that is equal parts spy thriller in space, and also coming of age as Max adjusts to a new galactic school off of Earth. We see his interactions with his friends and his first crushes, and his playful manner just as much as we see him trying to figure out who may have sabotaged his shuttle and following those clues down a rabbit hole of dangerous cover ups, conspiracies, and secret organizations. The non-thriller parts could feel a bit slow at times, but I didn't mind them too much and thought they did a good job setting up Max and his core group of friends, as he does have several. But I did really enjoy the thriller aspects the most and liked watching these kids really consider who may be behind something, and if they were going to follow up on executing an idea, what was the best plan of action. It was refreshing for an MG read where the kids actually do consider options to follow besides just flying by the seat of their pants, even if trouble likes to follow Max wherever he goes no matter how careful he tries to be.
Christensen really went all out with the science in this one. You can tell the author put a lot of care and research into how things would function in space and the science behind the travel. Unfortunately, sometimes the terminology gets used so casually in conversation by these space kids (which does make sense for them to use!) that it may be hard for younger readers to follow. So just keep that in mind. But Max is a fun kid to root for, he may get his friends into trouble a lot but he's not mean at all and he's a great brother, so I enjoyed him quite a bit as a main character. The one thing I personally had trouble with, and that may be because I am an actual adult, is the fact that when these kids did get into very serious trouble, and not always because they were doing something they shouldn't have been either, the adults were very quick to punish them rather than, I don't know, just be happy their kids were ok? But that may just be me though.
I'm not the biggest MG reader, but I had fun with this one. I do worry that some of the terms may be a bit difficult for middle grade readers who aren't big into hard(ish) science fiction, and a lot of the parents and adults' reactions to serious things happening to their kids bothered me personally, but younger readers may connect to that aspect a lot more. But that's ultimately why I'm giving this book 4 stars. It'd make a great book for MG fans who like thrilling chases in space—both literal and figurative—science fiction, and boys and girls working together to bring down the bad guys. And thanks to the author for sending me a copy for an honest review!

See the Declaration above for an answer to this and the Sixth interrogatory also.
NOTE: General John Burgoyne surrendered at Saratoga NY on 17 Oct 1777 and by �convention� arranged with Gen. Horatio Gates his Hessian troops were to be allowed to return home. The Continental Congress refused to honor those generous terms, however, and the 4000 men in Borgoyne�s �Convention Army� were detained first near Boston and then at the barracks at Charlottesville from Jan 1779 until Feb 1781. Contrary to Thomasson�s declaration, however, Burgoyne was never imprisoned.


We have just completed our installation for Dr. Pamela Singletary. Her new Pediatric Dentistry practice is called Texas Tooth Fairies and is housed in a very unique facility. Geared to children, many of her visual distractions are found closer to the ground. She has a glass enclosed doll house, and light boxes that house tooth fairies scattered around the building. Our scope of work for this project is a little different than many of our other installations because we were not hired to install the computers and networking equipment. Our focus was on the infrastructure cabling and the audio/video systems.
Local architect, Don Leighton-Burwell, referred Dr Singletary to Datasavior. We worked with DLB Architects at another Pediatric Dentistry practice. He was so pleased with the quality of our work that he felt comfortable referring us to Dr. Singletary. Starting with our Tech Consult , we reviewed the scope of the project with Dr. Singletary and her husband Dr. Bryan Townsend, who is a board certified dermatologist here in Austin. Even though we did not end up handling the network for them, we were able to help guide them through some of the more technical aspects of dental IT and walk them through some of the many options available.
Dr. Singletary chose to put patient view monitors on the ceiling in the her open treatment bays. The placement is directly over the head of the patient to distract them during procedures and to put their heads at the optimal angle to allow access to the patient's mouth. These 26″ Visio LCDs are connected to a Western Digital video distribution system that allows each Visio to view a different movie that resides on a local server. The sound is delivered to the patient though headphones, whose cabling is mounted to the underside of the chair. This configuration keeps the cord from hindering the procedure.
At the 12 o'clock position, we installed 20″ Dell LCD monitors. These are mounted on an articulating and sliding mount that allows the monitor to slide between the dentist and the assistant while minimizing the monitor's impact on the limited space in the operatory. A challenge to this configuration is cable management. A little design work is necessary to allow the cables to travel freely as the monitor slides side to side.
In each of her three quiet ops, Dr Singletary had Adec arms installed. These articulating arms hold both the overhead work light as well as 22″ JVC LCDs with onboard DVD players. Many of Dr Singletary's patients are special needs and have their own favorite movies that they like to watch. These DVD players give her the flexibility to accommodate these patients. Also connected to these JVC monitors is the Western Digital video distribution system mentioned earlier.
The facility also includes three small quiet recovery rooms that are outfitted with 26″ Visio LCD monitors. These are connected to the Western Digital video distribution system as well.
Finally, on the video front, we installed a 55″ LG LED in the waiting area and as expected, it is connected to the Western Digital as well.
For convenience to both the staff and incoming patients, there is a touch screen check in kiosk at the front desk. This HP touch screen monitor allows patients to check themselves in while allowing the staff to process new patient paperwork or check patients out.
To round out the project, we installed a distributed audio system in Dr. Singletary's facility. Used primarily for background music and noise suppression, this audio system consists of 9 zones with 5 individual volume controllers and an impedance matching device that had 4 additional volume controllers. As a primary source for the audio system, we installed Sonos system. Sonos is a new technology that allows you to control your networked audio system via a phone app or from your desk top computer. It can access your personal music library, Sirius/XM radio or any of the other available online music sources. More comprehensive Sonos installations allow for multi room control.
Our friends at Trimbuilt Construction invited us to provide the voice and data cable for the new Social Security Administration's building in Oak Hill. Like most government projects, this one had it's share of "preconstruction" problems. Multiple sets of plans created by different agency representatives based on standards that were created years ago and updated in an unorganized fashion made determining the actual scope of work difficult. But we couldn't let Trimbuilt face these issues without lending our expertise to the project so we jumped in with both feet. So while the start of the project was rocky, we finished with the level of quality people have come to expect from Datasavior.
Generally speaking, cabling contractors do not hang ladder rack because it is usually left to the electricians. In an attempt to keep the project simple and on track, Trimbuilt asked that we reinstall the cable tray that was already on-site. Luckily Adam and Andrew have the experience necessary to handle this scope of work. The challenge here was that, in many areas, the ceiling grid was already in place. I never asked how they were able to install the tray without harming the grid but they got the job done.
We installed 67 runs of non-plenum Cat6 and terminated the cabling using Leviton products. The design of the MDF was provided by SmithGroup who specified that all of the cables were to be secured in bundles of 12 wires using velcro that matched the color of the cable. The data cables were terminated on 48 port Leviton patch panels on standard 19″ Chatsworth data racks. The SSA requested a 4 post rack set to a very specific depth. With help from our Super Rep at Accutech, Nina Cook, we were able to determine that the Chatsworth Adjustable Rail QuadraRack fit the requirement.
Project Challenges – Multiple sets of plans; outdated and sometimes contradictory specifications, short lead time, difficult to locate items specified, ceiling grid in place making basket tray install difficult.
Project Benefits – Successful completion of difficult project makes us look like super heros, Trimbuilt's subcontractors are a step above all others, working in a challenging environment, positive first encounter with a new property management company.
In October of last year we set up Dr. Scraver's new office in San Antonio Texas. Dr. Scraver took a very unique approach to the layout and design of his offices. With a focus on Pediatric Dentistry, Smile Structure is designed to make children comfortable in an environment that usually makes them a little fearful. The concept must be working because Dr Scraver has recently started construction on his second facility in south San Antonio. Dr Scraver will be incorporating many of the features from his current office at the new facility.
From the time you enter the front door, every detail says "Play land". To the right of the check in desk the room is filled with a playscape and slide for the little ones. There are also two game consoles with age appropriate video games available for keeping children distracted. These custom cabinets were designed and built by Med-Tech Construction.
What really sets this lobby apart is the 25 seat movie theater complete with 5.1 surround sound and 1080p full HD video projector. Movie goers are treated to a wide range of movies choices thanks to an Apple TV system. To keep things secure, Datasavior installed all of the electronic components in the data closet at the rear of the building. All system controls are handled through an IR repeater located just above the movie screen.
watch. The system is flexible enough to allow viewers to watch the same show from different starting points. Additionally, since they are part of the overall network, you are able to stream video directly from the internet. Opening the possibility of YouTube, Netflix and many other viewing options. Of course, the patient view monitors are great tools for Dr. Scraver. They can be used to show intraoral pictures, x-rays and patient records. Most importantly, they can be used for patient education.
Last week our team headed to San Antonio to rough-in the new location. The new space will include many of the same features as the current office with a few changes. There will be a new movie theater as well as the game cabinets. We will be installing computers and patient view monitors in 8 treatment rooms. New to this office will be the addition of an Ortho bay with 4 chairs. Two consult rooms and an expanded front desk will round out the project. Connected to the space are the new corporate offices for Dr. Scraver's business.
The cabling team has completed Phase I of the Jones Energy relocation and has moved into the rough-in portion of Phase 2. Jones Energy is moving into new offices on the same floor they currently occupy at Las Cimas. This project is another referral from our good friends at Stream Realty. In order to keep Jones' operations running smoothly, the project must be done in two phases. Phase I consists of approximately 120 Cat6 cables used for both voice and data. We are using standard 19″ Chatsworth racking and wire management. Phase II will consist of another 114 Cat6 cables and the removal of all of their abandoned cable.
Everyone should be this happy at work.
Jones Energy develops natural gas wells in the Texas Panhandle. They use state of the art technology such as horizontal drilling, PDC bits and 20 stage frac techniques to accomplish their goal of finding natural gas and bringing incremental gas to the market.
The general contractor for the project is Trimbuilt Construction, Inc. We always enjoy working for Trimbuilt. As one of the premier GC's in Austin, they can be counted on to provide us with a safe and clean jobsite. Austin is the Onsite Superintendent for the project. When he gives you a schedule, you can bet that he will be right on. This trait is invaluable to subcontractors like ourselves. We have to know that when we put a project on the calendar that project will be ready for our arrival. Delays can cause other projects to fall behined. Since we are usually the last subcontractor on the project, the client is counting on us to have their network infrastructure in place and tested so that they can install their equipment and have the business up on Monday morning.
Our cabling team has begun working on Marvell Semiconductor's new space in Las Cimas. We were referred to them by our great friends at Stream Realty. The project consists of approximately 226 data cables running to modular furniture, wireless access points and a testing lab. We are using Leviton products for the jacks and patch panels. The space was previously occupied by Dell and their overhead cable tray is still in place making the pulling process for the project much smoother. The MDF will be built out to include 3 standard 19″ Chatsworth racks, we will also be utilitzing Panduit vertical and horizonal cable management to keep the room tidy.
Adam and Brian discuss the layout of the lab.
The general contractor for the project is daj construction. daj is a go to contractor for many of the largest property management companies in Austin.
Marvell is a leading fabless semiconductor company, who ships over one billion chips a year. Marvell's expertise in microprocessor architecture and digital signal processing, drives multiple platforms including high volume storage solutions, mobile and wireless, networking, consumer, and green products. Worldclass engineering and mixed-signal design expertise helps Marvell deliver critical building blocks to its customers, giving them the competitive edge to succeed in today's dynamic market.
UPDATE: We have completed the voice and data cabling portion of the Marvell project. The project went very smoothly and the customer is very happy with the finished product.
We have been asked to add a cellular antenna repeater system in their suites which will enhance their cellular coverage. The product we are installing is from wpsantennas.com. The equipment is sitting on an LMR400 cable infrastructure. A dual band cellular PCS antenna is placed on the roof the building and connected to a dual band amplifier and repeater. Several dual band omni directional dome antennas area then mounted to the ceiling tiles around the facility creating continuous cellular coverage throughout the facility. We will post an update on the project when it is complete.
In the Summer of 2008 we worked with Richard Galbraith, of Galbraith Construction, and Elizabeth Smith, Interior Designer, on the new offices of Pediatric Cardiology of Austin. For this project our scope of work was originally limited to installing Cat6 cable for the voice and data infrastructure. We helped Dr Byron Holt determine what his technology needs were today as well as where he saw the practice moving in the future. Based on our recommendations, he decided that it would be prudent to plan for the coming acceptance of Electronic Medical Records (EMR) and add cabling to all of the exam rooms. The building that was being remodeled was quite old and we were needed to provide a little extra "consulting" to assure that proper services were being provided to the building. Towards the end of the project we contracted to provide and hang LCD TVs in a few locations around the office.
I wanted to personally send you this letter of recommendation following the completion of our recent construction project. Your participation in our vision to create a unique medical office was essential, and I'm certain that it was not easy considering the complexities involved in a renovation project such as ours. The ease with which you solved our data, voice and cabling issues was impressive, especially considering we were basically installing an entirely new infrastructure for the building. Your additional expertise in audio/visual needs for a medical space such as ours was an added bonus. Finally, your willingness, at your own suggestion, to meet with the other contractors to ensure proper integration of all components was invaluable and much appreciate.
I would wholeheartedly endorse you and your company to any business considering either new construction or a complicated remodel such as ours. Thank you very much for everything you have done for us.
We are so please to be asked to tell you about Data Savior and the work that they did for us. We started a dental practice from scratch in Kyle, Tx scheduled to open in December or January of 2007. Data Savior came and worked extensively with our contractor to ensure that all of the wiring and outlets were in the right places and working. We never had to stall the project to wait for them to install something. Our software and hardware have been seamlessly integrated including Dentrix, Digital X rays, and our digital camera.
When the walls were up finally, they came back and setup our Technology closet, It is so well organized and attractive that it is on my tour when I show off our office. People that know technology comment about what a nice job organizing wiring that they did.
Since the initial installation of our server, computers, printers, phone system we have continued to work with Brent, Brian, Adam, and John doing upgrades and improvements to our system. They are always easy to work with, on time, very professional and they clean up after themselves. They are quick to diagnose any problems and quick to find solutions to problems. For instance, one time Dentrix had a glitch in their month-end software programming that asked us to restore our data from the backup. Brian was able to perform this in about 5 minutes while he was on the phone and accessing our server remotely. They are very good at explaining the technology in a way that is understandable by us non-technological personnel.
We highly recommend them and look forward to many years of working with them.
I could not be more pleased with my MedicTalk software. It has enabEed me to be completely paperless and save time with new patients. New patients can complete their bealth histories on line before the appointment through my website link to E-Dent forms (a service of MedicTalk). The information is stored in MedicTalk until the patient is entered into Dentrix. Patients in the office answer the questionnaires on Our wireless notepads. Retrieving the information to view is quick, and can be done from any computer.
I also use MedicTalk in the operatories for consent forms. Not only did the software come with numerous consents already made up, you can enter your own. You can add any type of questionnaire. The software is very customizable.
The MedicTalk support is excellent. Customer service is very important to me. I also highly recommend the guys from Data Saviors for computer networking, installation and support, etc. Everyone Data Saviors has put me in contact with, including MedicTalk. has been awesome!
In the Spring of 2006 we worked with Dr Scherder in the planning phase of his new offices in Naples Fl. We began the project with a Tech Consult where we reviewed his floorplans and office layout. We discussed all of the technology options available him and formulated a comprehensive technology plan. The result was a printed scope of work that included all of his computers, networking equipment, printers, fax machines, audio and video equipment. We created a floorplan that included the locations for these items and the necessary infrastructure cabling needed to run and integrate them. The resulting specificiation documents were thourough enough so that other dental integration companies could bid apples to apples on the project. Of course, in the end Datasavior won the bid and we were fortunate to be part of a spectacular project.
It is with great pleasure and without hesitation that I recommend Datasavior and Brian Kroeger without reservation. Brian was the ultimate professional who worked tirelessly on my quite technologically complicated project. Brian and his helper Adam worked morning, noon, night and weekends to complete my project on a very abbreviated manner. They did this without complaint and were extremely pleasant to work with despite interacting with many other building trades who were not nearly as professional. I would say that Datasavior and Brian in particular were the most professional and competent of the entire multitude of trades who participated on my 2.5 million dollar project. Their services included the design and planning of a sophisticated network which communicated with some of the most advanced instruments in dentistry such as my $80,000 Zeiss microscope with a Sony 3 chip digital camera. They had great knowledge of both the hardware and software (not a small task when one considers all of the various manufacturers available.) Their execution of the plan and follow up after it was installed were without equal.
In sum, I would recommend Datasavior and Brian Kroeger at the highest level. If more information is needed, I would be happy to talk directly to anyone considering their services.
I wanted to formally acknowledge and thank your team for the outstanding work they did on the voice and data cabling at our new facility. They represented Datasavior in a very professional manner and performed their tasks above and beyond our expectations.
Gabe, Adam and Martin were a welcome addition to the jobsite. It was obvious from the start that they take great pride in the quality of their work. The final installation was visually very impressive, with all of the cables neatly dressed.
I would be proud to highly recommend your company to anyone who is in need of voice and data cabling services. Please feel free to use this letter in your marketing efforts.

And i have another question have you guys thought about replicating Keelys airship antigravity motor, too?
I ask because i would be interested whether it theoreticall works like Walter Russell teaches. He uses conical coils and i wonder if it would be also possible with these coils set up in a certain way, to cut of the stream which pushes "matter" to the earths center. I sometimes think of producing like an electromagnetic anti-vortex
According to the grid of dynaspheres i was referring to (Figure 20.15 - Dynaspheres Across America) but i realized that it was only transported to the specific locations. How about duplicating the spheres and building a grid then?
What about rotation of the Dynaspheres?
Might I ask with all the research and current knowledge of the apparatus and science behind the invention, what has stopped you yourself from utilizing it?
Are we missing gaps in knowledge that would make the machine function correctly?
Is there an issue of parts?
I am curious at the present point in history what problems have you come up against - where do we need to go from here to make this technology either complete or available to the public?
What is your opinion about the accuracy of the wikipedia entry on John Worrell Keely?
Is there a word/phrase that you can think of that describes the spread or effect of vibration on each other?
How come Atlin and any other finished machine aren't out in the public yet? If its in working condition how come you haven't got this thing out there being put to use like a motor and do whatever else it could do?
Is it because it only works by a mind projecting love to it? If so I could certainly understand people not being able to operate it or even wanting to understand such a thing.
But at the same time, you could be travelling around demonstrating it I suppose who knows.
I just know something like this could easily change the way things are.
I'm eagerly awaiting the first step when Atlin will be a known machine whether operated by others or not but at at least known.
Mr. Pond, I found you on the net. I have since ordered one of Keely's books. I also have a book by Walter Russell. In your web presentation you state that the sine wave is made up of positive and negative waves with a neutral center. The outgoing wave you state is positive (male), and incoming or compression wave is negative (female). In Russell's book, "A New Concept of the Universe" on page 16 and 20 he states that the expanding pressure is negative and the contracting pressure is positive. I am confused. Can you help me to understand what this is all about? I like Russell's book and agree on many issues that he presents, but I am at a conflict with the negative and positive information. Thanks so much. A.N.
What exactly does the dynasphere do?
Have you ever encountered in any of your or Keely's work, laws or characteristics regarding the pitch (in the sense of an angle) relating to the fundamental or neutral center? I am going off the assumption that all motion is spiral, therefore in a simple sense the gyroscopic spiral (conical if you will) will follow a given angle in each subsequent gyration.. just curious. I would also assume that a replicated (but transmuted) spiral will be generated at harmonic internals of the fundamental where the preponderance changes..
I have been researching and testing free energy devices for several years and one of the persons who really fascinated me is a Canadian called Daniel Pomerleau. I never met him in person but I talked to people who saw his demonstrations and I think that they are real. My attempts to replicate his devices and to power them with my mind utterly failed. Not even a small voltage could be recorded. On your blog (http://sympsionics.blogspot.com/2008/03/daniel-pomoleau.html) you wrote that "All force is mind force." That is a nice but how do we use it? Pomerleau seems to know it. But how can we learn this? Do you have any idea?
Many earlier Q&As were addressed here
Q1: What is SVP?
A: SVP or Sympathetic Vibratory Physics is the general field exploring the fundamental physics and phenomena of sound and vibration as these work in and through all known material and energetic matrices which includes Mind, Matter, Spiritual and their intimate linkages. SVP explores the harnessing of Mind Force in machinery as Keely did.
Q2: What university teaches SVP?
A: I don't know of any formal universities teaching anything like SVP. However there are some good engineering schools that deal in vibration, quantum acoustics, general acoustics, mechanical engineering, Quantum Entanglement, music, quantum mechanics, quantum electrodynamics, etc. Some of those I thought interesting are
Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio
Temple University, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Vibration Institute education, training and certification
There are a number of trade schools, professional societies and commercial organizations that specialize in acoustics, sound and vibration, non-destructive testing, sonar, etc. Check these sites under Test and Measurement.
Q3: How do we become more sensitive to vibrations?
A: To become more sensitive to vibration we need to 1) learn to meditate and listen within; 2) learn what vibration is and 3) train ourselves to be sensitive to those higher realms. These items have to do with our conscious awareness. Learning the facts or science and knowing the wisdom behind the science.
A good place to begin these processes is learning what vibration really is:
"There is a celestial mind force, a great sympathetic force which is life itself, of which everything is composed." Keely
"All motion is thought, and all force is mind force." Keely, Keely and His Discoveries
All motion is mind force. Therefore all vibration is Mind in activity within the etheric and interetheric realms. We can study the physics of those motions and we can study the source of them. Modern science knows only descriptions of the manifest motions (effects). SVP digs after the source and cause.
Q4: How does one measure the frequency or vibration of an element?
A: Over the years I've been asked this question many times. The answer to this question is not simple and not entirely known at this time (October, 2010). However, we can can begin at the beginning with what understanding we may have at the moment.
Exciting the specimen and reading its responses is the better known method.
Frequency or vibration is not as simple as orthodox science would have us believe. A frequency is generally considered the rate of vibration. Vibration is a linear concept as shown, for instance, in Keely's Scale of Forces. But, according to Russell's view, vibration is in actuality a composite of at least eighteen interrelated dimensions or attributes. Take way any of these dimensions or attributes and the wave is not complete. This being the case a rigid or exclusive measurement of frequency alone is incomplete and therefore misleading. It is an incomplete data-set.
The requirement then is to account for all the eighteen interrelated dimensions or attributes. This would yield a more complete data-set and hence be closer to the truth of what the element is in actuality.
Russell called this concept the wave and wave field as he wrote in Wave Fields - Summarize and Simplify.
An element is therefore a resultant of these eighteen dimensions or attributes considered as a whole or matrix. We know this to be true by the simple analogy of a middle C sounded on a trumpet and on a piano. While the fundamental pitch of the tone is middle C we hear something more. This 'something more' is attributed to the overtone series created by each instrument. The overtone series is different being comprised of a different set of overtones in each case. An overtone series is created by virtue of what is vibrating being in turn resultants of material, density, mass, etc. These properties are some of the dimensions listed by Russell. Unless and until these are all taken into account the vibratory nature of whatever element may not be known in an SVP meaningful way. See Eighteen Attributes or Dimensions
Q5: Did Keely's original dynasphere rotate?
A: Yes, of course. See Keely Spinning Motor and 19.07 - A Modern Wizard The Keely Motor And Its Inventor
Q6: So Atlin is for spiritualizing the world?
A: Partly, there is more to it. It is also to help us learn the science and about ourselves. See Atlin Purpose and Atlin messages
Q7: Was this the purpose of Keely's dynasphere, too?
A: Keely was developing an entirely new science. Building dynaspheres and understanding their physics was a part of that process.
Q8: What is the input of the dynasphere is it really chords?
A: The "input" as you call it are the celestial and terrestrial forces also mental forces from those close to it. (Acoustic) chords were for excitation and establishing specific acoustic fields having specific properties.
Q9: Is it like when i would sit in front of Atlin in deep meditation that i would hear their sounds and feel their warmth and that i can grasp some complex content out of that?
A: Some people do and some do not. It all depends on how open you are to intuitive input.
Q10: And i have another question have you guys thought about replicating Keely's air-ship antigravity motor, too?
A: Yes, I've thought about it. Such a device is currently beyond our capabilities. See Air-ship
Q11: I ask because i would be interested whether it theoretical works like Walter Russell teaches. He uses conical coils and i wonder if it would be also possible with these coils set up in a certain way, to cut of the stream which pushes "matter" to the earth's center. I sometimes think of producing like an electromagnetic anti-vortex
A: I believe such a device would be far more complex than simple conical coils. Whether or not such coils would interact with gravity is unknown. The best way to answer your question is for you to do the fundamental research and experiments. See Levitation
Q12: According to the grid of dynaspheres i was referring to Figure 20.15 - Dynaspheres Across America but i realized that it was only transported to the specific locations. How about duplicating the spheres and building a grid then?
A: The stick pins are actual locations of existing individual dynaspheres. There are five dynaspheres now (2/2011) in existence. I'd like nothing better than to make more Dynaspheres and have them placed all around the globe. Such a project would require appropriate financing and support. Read the text on that page and see Figure 20.16 - Love Beams Across America
Q13: What about rotation of the Dynaspheres?
A: The Dynaspheres are not solely about rotation which is a small part of their overall purpose. See Atlin's Purpose.
Q14: Might I ask with all the research and current knowledge of the apparatus and science behind the invention, what has stopped you yourself from utilizing it?
A: The project is not yet complete in terms of understanding thoroughly of its technology and development of those persons directly and indirectly involved.
Q15: Are we missing gaps in knowledge that would make the machine function correctly?
A: Yes, that is it plus awakening and personal responsibility.
Q16: Is there an issue of parts?
A: Some parts could use some "tweaking" but generally it is complete.
Q17: I am curious at the present point in history what problems have you come up against - where do we need to go from here to make this technology either complete or available to the public?
A: First the general public needs to awaken to personal responsibility for themselves and their future. People have this strange idea they can sit back and do nothing while others will work and rescue them or dump amazing technologies into their laps. They have to get involved and show some initiative.
Second these awakened ones need to support SVP in all ways possible especially financial, (donation or subscribe) and/or sharing the work load.
Third the psychopaths need to be removed from controlling the world, banks, industry and governments.
Q18: What is your opinion about the accuracy of the wikipedia entry on John Worrell Keely?
A: It is very disturbing to read the wikipedia write-up as it contains some truths but mostly opinion of someone who does not understand Keely or his work. The material is mostly historical as far as it goes. That my work is relegated to footnotes says a lot about the personality who edits that page. Those who are truly interested in Keely and SVP will find my work and go from there.
Q19: Is there a word/phrase that you can think of that describes the spread or effect of vibration on each other?
A: It is the Transmissive Vibration (as opposed to Creative or Attractive Vibrations) that travels in Sympathetic Flows or Currents.
So any of these will work:
Sympathetic Transmissive Vibration
Sympathetic Transmissive Resonance
Sympathetic Transmissive Propagation
Q20: How come Atlin and any other finished machine aren't out in the public yet? If its in working condition how come you haven't got this thing out there being put to use like a motor and do whatever else it could do?
A: I can only speak for Atlin and not for "any other finished machine". It is NOT yet working. It is available for people to visit here so it is "out in (available to) the public" and not hidden away.
Q21: Is it because it only works by a mind projecting love to it? If so I could certainly understand people not being able to operate it, or even wanting to understand such a thing.
A: People have been brainwashed to NOT look at such things as Mind Forceand a Greater Consciousness. Therefore they are afraid to consider such things. But that is changing. See P.E.A.R. Proposition
Q22:But at the same time, you could be travelling around demonstrating it I suppose who knows.
A: Yes, I could be "traveling around" but that costs money which I do not have. It's easier to build a web site and let people visit it at no cost to them. See SVPwiki
Q23:I just know something like this could easily change the way things are,
A: It is changing things for many people. It all takes time. See Testimonials
Q24:I'm eagerly awaiting the first step, when Atlin will be a known machine, whether operated by others or not but at at least known.
A: Atlin is becoming a known machine/technology. We will be sending one to Europe hopefully before the year is out. See Dynaspheres to Europe Project
Q25:Mr. Pond, I found you on the net. I have since ordered one of Keely's books. I also have a book by Walter Russell. In your web presentation you state that the sine wave is made up of positive and negative waves with a neutral center. The outgoing wave you state is positive (male), and incoming or compression wave is negative (female). In Russell's book, "A New Concept of the Universe" on page 16 and 20 he states that the expanding pressure is negative and the contracting pressure is positive. I am confused. Can you help me to understand what this is all about? I like Russell's book and agree on many issues that he presents, but I am at a conflict with the negative and positive information. Thanks so much. A.N.
A: Yes, the positive/negative terminology is confusing. This seeming contradiction is briefly explanation at these two links that I hope will straighten this out for you: Positive, Negative
Q26:What exactly does the dynasphere do?
A:1- Hands-on building helps us learn about
a. SVP - a broader subtler physics
b. Ourselves and Mind Force
2- Encourages people to ask questions and be open to new concepts.
3- Coalesces an harmonic field that may be entrained with or not.
a. What is the nature of this field?
4- This harmonic field can at times interact sympathetically with its environment.
a. How is that possible?
5- Provides a healing environment; mental, physical, emotional and spiritual.
a. So what then is disease? healing? health?
6- Modulates (harmonizes) the global noosphere.
a. How can that happen?
7- When the physics is better understood the Dynasphere will physically rotate and provide shaft-power.
a. What makes the Dynasphere rotate is the same set of dynamics that makes the Earth, stars and atoms rotate.
Q27:Have you ever encountered in any of your or Keely's work, laws or characteristics regarding the pitch (in the sense of an angle) relating to the fundamental or neutral center? I am going off the assumption that all motion is spiral, therefore in a simple sense the gyroscopic spiral (conical if you will) will follow a given angle in each subsequent gyration.. just curious. I would also assume that a replicated (but transmuted) spiral will be generated at harmonic internals of the fundamental where the preponderance changes..
A: It is a given orbital paths are elliptical and ecliptic. The angles change according to relative energy along a progressive evolution of differentiation from a keynote or Center. Walter Russell discussed this in his "The Universal One". Also it is more than he discussed and is vastly complex but the ideas are simple yet many. It would be an interesting study to develop - assuming one had time.
Q28:How do you use Mind Force?
A: The nature of Mind Force is complex. As there are two fundamental levels or types of Mind Force we must understand the difference. There is the Whole Mind mind force (undifferentiated) and the split mind mind force (differentiated). The split mind force is of the ego, intellect or willfulness and is a false force that cannot be used for these purposes. The other Whole Mind mind force may be said to be of the Heart. This undifferentiated Mind Force is what Keely and others used. Study on these fine concepts and know the difference. The Whole Mind sets you free of 3-D constraints while the split mind binds one to illusion and limitations.
Q29: Is a sonic boom an example of air compressed to the plane of zero curvature?
A29: My guess is it is NOT "air compressed to the plane of zero curvature" because the plane of zero curvature is first a vacuum neutral state. In a sonic boom the air is first compressed to the 4++ condition (contracting, heating) then it rapidly expands (cooling) towards the "plane of zero curvature" causing condensation in the air. See Principle of Regeneration, Cycle of Temperature
Q30: Hello! I am tracking down origins of frequency claims for a book I'm writing, as well as my own curiosity. There are claims that a Quartz Clymmnrystal Resonance of 2675Hz ("a lower octave of the resonance of quartz") was originally found in a table of frequencies in "Universal Laws", that they claim "vanished from later publications of the book". Its not in my copy, and they say it can stil be found in the interviews section, nit I'm not seeing that either. Hoping you can help with this goose chase!
A30: Thank you for writing in.
I have never heard of "Quartz Clymmnrystal Resonance". A Google search likewise does not find that phrase so not knowing what it is I cannot help you with that.
The number 2675 or 2,675 does not appear in any of the Keely/SVP literature I have. So the claim it was in "'Universal Laws' .. then vanished" is false. I double checked the first edition copy and that number does not appear in the list of frequencies. Obviously you've been misled on this point.
If you have any other details on what it is you are actually looking for I can take another look.
Q31: what do you make of Keely's esoteric connections?
A31: The world is dying because we refuse to recognize our spiritual origin and Being. Those who have known of these things have been searching for validation. Keely's work validates it.
Q32: Is there any relationship between electromagnetic vibrational frequencies which create radio waves etc. And vibrational movement that which creates sound, at any given frequency for either. Or are they totally separate energies remaining unrelated in whatever part of their respective spectrums they occur?
A32: It seems to me sound vibrations, by their natural creation of overtones, can reach into the EMF frequencies provided there is an appropriately responsive media. These higher overtones would be faint but they should still be there.
Has anyone developed a method to directly convert one into the other? I don't know
Both ranges have a much higher aliquot component that would link them. We are now working to demonstrate this subtle point.
Audible sound waves are conventionally understood to manifest as longitudinal (compression) waves while most emf energies manifest as transverse waves. The point of conversion from one wave form to the other is taken to be somewhere around 2^21 Hz, give or take.
SVP sees the compression and transverse wave development a little differently but that is neither here nor there, for the time being.
There is a lot more to all this. [see Table 14.03 - Ranges of Forces Vibration Forms Types and Governing Laws]
A33: Hi Dale, I'm just working on some principles of Mr Carr's work and was wondering if you could help me with a very similar principle which Mr. Keely had used. Mr. Keely's devices that operated by him drawing symbols and also other people being able to draw symbols to activate his devices. Could you point me in the best direction to find out more specifically about Mr Keely's methods?
A33: In my understanding this topic is about clear focused THOUGHT. So how does one train their mind to create and hold a clear undisturbed thought? The best source I've seen to date on this specific topic is surprisingly Bob Proctor. Specifically his book "You Were Born Rich". Forget his reference to money because the book is primarily about creating and holding clear thoughts - to achieve whatever purpose. Next would be the basic concepts as found in Radionics. Also see Part 24 - Awakening Your Genius

As many of you know, Bipolar disorder has dramaticly affected my life. Loosing Carson to this disease and homeschooling our youngest with chronic Bipolar disorder has enabled me to see it's effect on a minute-by-minute basis.
God gave me a word picture this morning that might give others a glimpse into those that struggle with and are misunderstood because they suffer with Bipolar disorder and/or other mental illnesses.
Because Bipolar disorder is an invisible illness, there is also an invisible electrical fence surrounding those suffering. Attempts to reach those experiencing the effects of mental illness can elicit a retaliatory sting of words or actions that are hurtful. Their reactions may not make sense and can cause those who love them to draw back in pain.
But, as we move closer to those suffering with mental illness, drawing on God's supernatural love, their electric fence begins to lose its strength, and soon it can be clipped. As we step over that dead wire, we breathe life, trust and understanding into that person struggling with mental illness and its effects.
Don't let pain stop you from reaching out to someone who is mentally ill. There is a miracle from the Lord to be seen; not a cure, not an easy fix, but a life that is touched by the supernatural love and power of our God!
REACH OUT TO THOSE WITH MENTAL ILLNESS.
I am praying, with faith in our Lord, that you will join me in touching the lives of those suffering with mental illness.
The Lord gave me this word picture a couple of months ago, but I just remembered writing it as I thought of the help needed to rebuild lives affected by the recent tornadoes in our area.
We all have seen the destruction that can come as a result of natural disasters, such as tornadoes, earthquakes, hurricanes, and tsunamis. Suffering with mental illness is a natural disaster turned inward. The damage is hidden from those around the person suffering because the disaster starts from within; i.e., irrational thoughts, paralyzing fears, physical symptoms (headaches, stomach issues); the list goes on!
We must educate ourselves to the signs of these oncoming disasters. Education, plus a purposeful and kindred connection are required to equip a caregiver, or just one who cares, to sense when an individual is trying desperately to "contain" the development of the inevitable disaster brewing within. It is possible to assist in calming the upcoming disaster within, before eruption, if there is someone educated around them to point out the pain and erratic behavior they are seeing exhibited and offer understanding and support.
However, if you haven't experienced this type of natural disaster within, of mental illness, yourself, or see a loved one who suffers with it, once it happens, it is truly hard to imagine! The behavior that can follow can look like so many other behaviors; i.e., anger, sadness, isolation, defiance, that can be misunderstood. Unfortunately, the results can be devastating and sometimes fatal (suicide) to the person experiencing the mental illness. The disaster can create "shock waves" that affect family, friends and friends of friends.
If mental illness is handled not by the Red Cross but by those that have been healed by Christ's blood, shed on the cross, those that are Christ followers, the outcome will look more like a construction site than a disaster site.
If we as Christians believe that God is in the business of helping rebuild and restore lives, then what are we as Christians waiting for? We are willing to help with natural disasters everywhere. Will we not take the time to proactively educate ourselves about mental illness and what it looks like? Is it easier to just avoid the disaster site?.
With the Lord's insight, and willingness on our part to become educated and open to the hidden pain around us, we can join The Lord's Disaster Relief Team. Rebuilding any disaster site takes preparation, time and tireless effort, but the results will be one disaster site at a time reconstructed for His eternal glory.
Will you join me in praying for the Lord's construction sites and teams to begin popping up everywhere? The life restored could be yours or your loved one's.


You can follow him, too, @ urbangarden. He is twittering all sorts of fall foliage links, etc.
The site has a fall lineup of trees with their respective foliage colors in a handy table. Shrubs, too. Other plants can have surprising fall color, as well. With a bit of planning , you might be fortunate enough to just look out your window for a great fall show. Check out some Ohio foliage highlights.
What a wonderful Fall site. Thanks for sharing it.
Ilona, Conkle's Hollow and Ash Cave both have ridge paths and lower paths. The ridge paths are harder because the the climbs. But the lower baths are paved and are fairly level and good for those like me who just like to walk, look around and snap some pictures. The are both even wheel chair accessible to a point so it still lets you get to see the beauty of the hollows. Cedar Falls and Old Mans Cave are a little tougher for hiking.
Great fall colors and pictures. I especially liked the information about how the leaves turn into their fall colors from being green. Cool! However, fall colors leave me feeling melancholy. I think I like spring better.


Through the annals of footballing history, there have been a multitude of figures whose contribution to the game can be termed as colossal. Names such as Jimmy Hogan, Herbert Chapman, Victor Maslov, Rinus Michels, Arrigo Sacchi, have left their inedible mark on the sport through their philosophies of how the game should be played. But among these, the name of Valeriy Lobanovskyi has long gone unnoticed and underappreciated. His contribution to the game is as important and as ground breaking as any of the contributions of the rest of these eminent personalities.
Born in Kiev in 1939, the young Valeriy was a smart kid, evidenced by his gold medal in mathematics which he was gifted when he left high school. Incidentally, it was this obsession with mathematics that would come to define his career. Lobanovskyi would later go on to study engineering at the Kiev Polytechnic Institute at a time when Kiev would be the center of the Soviet computer industry. It was here that Lobanovskyi learned about the latent capabilities of computers and would later define his career with his usage of them.
Lobanovskyi, the player, was a dynamic, pacey and inventive left winger in the Victor Maslov created Dynamo Kyiv side of the fifties and sixties. He flourished until the team shifted to a wingerless 4-4-2, wherein he was unable to adapt to being played as a midfielder and eventually left the club. After a couple of clubs, he retired at the age of 29 in 1968 and embarked on a 32 year coaching career which would earn him worldwide recognition and fame.
Even though he, as a player, had favoured individual expression, as a manager he propagated the school of thought that football was about the coalitions and connections that existed between the 11 players of a team. He broke down the game, saying that football was a system of 22 elements – divided into 2 systems of 11 elements, playing within the given area of the pitch and subjected to the rules of the game.
Lobanovskyi joined Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk and though he did not win anything major there, he did guide them to the First Division in his third year and had them finish sixth in his fourth year. In his time there, Lobanovskyi met Anatoliy Zelentsov, a specialist in bioenergetics, who would go on to become his trusted right hand man and an integral part of his coaching setup wherever he went for years to come.
The great Ukrainian claimed that his ambition was to achieve uniformity amongst his players; he wanted his forwards to be capable defenders and his defenders to be capable forwards. He also instructed his players in numerous pre-planned moves, moves which became embedded in Dynamo's play and were able to be adapted to suit a variety of circumstances.
Lobanovskyi was an advocate of the simple but golden rule of football which says that the best way to outplay your opponents is to vary the size of the playing area, i.e. make the pitch look bigger when in possession of the ball and smaller when not in possession. He also reverberated that the most important thing in football is what the player is doing when he is not in possession of the ball. His teams though didn't always have a set method of playing the game, they would be capable of an intense pressing and attacking game, and at the same time would be content to sit back and counter attack. This tied in with his thought process of always looking for new ways to play and hence never be 'found out'.
His greatest achievement, though, will be his use of statistics and computers. Lobanovskyi and his team used computers to analyze games, composed training programs and evaluated player performances, in a scientific manner that had never been seen before in the game. Everything the player did was denoted by a number. There were a specific number of technical and tactical actions that a player was supposed to have fulfilled during the course of a match, and if he didn't do it, well, the obvious conclusion would be that he hasn't played well.
As expected his strict regime and seemingly totalitarian rule resulted in a lot of players getting disillusioned with him and his methods. A fall out with many of his players and bad luck ruined his international career with the USSR. But nothing can take away from him the 13 League titles, 9 Domestic Cups, 2 UEFA Cup Winners Cup and a UEFA Super Cup that he won as a manager. He also reached the final of the European Championships where they were beaten by Marco van Basten's wonder goal.
Lobanovskyi passed away on 13th May 2002 after suffering a stroke in the aftermath of a game a few days earlier. More than 200,000 people attended his state funeral including Andriy Shevchenko and some of the members of his former teams, He was honoured with the title Hero of Ukraine, the nation's highest honour and has also had Dynamo Kiev's stadium named after him.
In this age of Opta statistics and WhoScored ratings, it is difficult to appreciate the effect that Lobanovskyi had on the footballing fraternity at the time. He had a ceaseless desire to fuse science and football to create the perfect team, where the actions of every player was monitored so as to allow them to play at the peak of their abilities. He is the prototype of the modern football manager.


Fr. Robert J. Hughes died suddenly on September 1, 1985, at his parish in Kyoto, Japan, at the age of 61.
Father Bob was born in Brooklyn, N.Y. on August 7, 1924. It was in his third year at Brooklyn Cathedral High School that he decided to seek admission to Maryknoll. He had met Fr. Martin Burke, M.M. who was on furlough and who belonged to the same parish. After several informal chats with Fr. Burke, his interest for the missionary priesthood grew and he soon afterwards applied and was accepted in 1942. He studied at the Venard and at the Center where he was ordained June 10, 1951.
Fr. Hughes spent all of his missionary life in Japan. Those who knew him well wrote about him as "a good missioner who works hard at the job, puts his faith in the traditional methods and the old virtues. He is generous and cooperative, has good judgment, and is always dependable. He has a good outlook on the missionary life and is thoroughly dedicated to the work." He was a zealous missioner. Just out of language school he sent out a letter of appeal which expresses his desire to get to work. He writes: "The possibilities for the Church in this area are tremendous. In the pre-war years conversions were few. Now all is changed. The people are living in a spiritual vacuum which they long to have filled. Too many are the priestless cities, towns and villages throughout this section where thousands of good people are hungering for the truths of our Faith; but, as St. Paul asked: 'How can they hear without a preacher?'" Father Bob went to work to set up a catechetical program, reaching out to the poor and the under-nourished. He was always looking for new ways to attract people to the Faith. Together with his assistant, a youth center was set up in the silk-weaving district of Kyoto where thousands of young people worked or went to school. Here they held folk dances, music lessons, cooking and art classes, and the like. Fun was the keynote at the youth center but things of the spirit also had a special place in the program. There was an annual retreat for all, a weekly Bible study class, discussions and the nightly catechism class which was well attended.
His great desire to lead others to the Faith won for him the name 'The Mailbox Missioner'. At one time he sent out an average of 4,000 letters a month to his yet-to-be-Christians in that area. Fr. Bob said he would get about five responses for every thousand. He never seemed to get discouraged.
The funeral service was held in the Kyoto Cathedral on September 4, 1985 and burial was in Kyoto Catholic Cemetery. The Mass at Maryknoll Center was held on September 6th. Sayonara, Father Bob! May he rest in peace.

NAKHON PATHOM — A barge pilot was hit with a minor fine Thursday morning after his vessel smashed into a bridge and caused it to collapse.
The bridge in front of Wat Thaiyawat across the Thai Chin River in Nakhon Pathom province was destroyed after Sumet Tappandee, 35, lost control of the soybean-carrying barge and rammed it into one of the bridge's pillars.
The operator said he was sailing from Ko Sichang to deliver a shipment to an oil factory when the engine shut off and the rudder stopped working, causing the boat to smash into the bridge.
Sathit Kasemwong talks to reporters Thursday afternoon.
In the afternoon, Sumet was taken to Nakhon Chai Si Police Station and fined 2,000 baht for possessing an expired boat license since 2012. Police said he will be fined for property damage.
Thai Vegetable Oil Public Company Limited – for which Sumet works – said it would provide free transportation from 6am to 9pm from Friday onward for students and commuters who usually used the bridge.
The collapsed bridge Thursday afternoon.
Correction: An earlier version of this story said it was a tugboat that struck the bridge, when it fact it was a barge.

Food bank donates over 250 parcels in Downpatrick
FOUNTAIN Food Bank in Downpatrick gave out 253 food parcels to local families in the run-up to Christmas.
Volunteer co-ordinator Shirley Lennon said that while the food bank gave out 262 parcels for Christmas 2018, this year's effort actually sustained more people during the season, feeding 770 people over two to three days.
She said: "In one way it's good to know that the parcels have been given out but it another way, its horrific as that demand is still there."
Mrs Lennon believes that demand for help has again increased on last year.
"Although we won't have the final numbers until the end of March, we have already given out 569 parcels to date this year," she explained.
"In 2016/18, we gave out 648 parcels, in 2017/18, it was 734 parcels and this jumped to 831 parcels in 2018/19."
"We believe that the increase is partly down to the fact that we are working more effectively in partnership with other statutory organiations who refer people to us and proactively ordered parcels for Christmas for families they are working with.
"We also get referrals from organisations such as MACS (which supports children and young people) and St Vincent De Paul and believe the fact that social workers are now working with GPs in Downpatrick in multidisciplinary teams is also helping to ensure that help is going to where it is needed most."
Mrs Lennon said that some of the people who received parcels were in genuine need of a temporary helping hand.
She said: "We helped one mother and her family as they were visiting and supporting a family member in hospital who has cancer. As the family has no car and survive on benefits, money was being used to pay for transport to the hospital.
"Then on another day, we were approached by a very distressed woman who literally had nothing at home as her marriage had just broken up. We were able to give her a parcel as well as signpost her to where she could get help for her mental health."
Mrs Lennon added that the team of 45 volunteers were working flat-out in December to make up the parcels — with the help of three Ulster Rugby team players at one point.
However, she added that the effort would not have been possible without the generosity of local donors.
"We have had so much help this year and it ranges for local businesses giving us food stuff, people leaving in cash donations, people coming with bags of groceries and even one shopper who donated an entire trolley full of shopping from Asda," said Mrs Lennon.
"We would like to thank each and every one of them for their generosity and continued support."
Fountain Food Bank is run from Downpatrick Presbyterian Church Hall, Fountain Crescent in Downpatrick.

Day 148: Am I always expanding?
Pretty much disconnected from everything yesterday. After sleeping a lot more the last couple of nights, it seems that I am actually more tired now—delayed travel fatigue? I did make it to a friend's moving sale and scored two adorable candles and a couple coffee mugs for the bargain price of two bucks. It was good to see some lady pals and catch up on their goings on and what I consider their exciting expansion.
1. the act or process of expanding.
2.the state or quality of being expanded.
3.the amount or degree of expanding.
4.an expanded, dilated, or enlarged portion or form of a thing: The present article is an expansion of one he wrote last year.
6.Mathematics . a.the development at length of an expression indicated in a contracted form, as a 2 + 2 ab + b 2 for the expression ( a + b ) 2. b. any mathematical series that converges to a function for specified values in the domain of the function, as 1 + x + x 2 + … for 1/(1 − x ) when x < 1.
7.Machinery . that part of the operation of an engine in which the volume of the working medium increases and its pressure decreases.
8.an increase in economic and industrial activity (opposed to contraction).
I can literally be expanding and not even know it until I put on an old pair of jeans and realize I now must call them "skinny" jeans because I've expanded so much they don't fit anymore. I think intangible expansion—expanding our minds, our perceptions, our consciousness—is the same way. It's happening and we may not even know it because what's happening in our lives is so challenging or painful or "can't see the forest for the trees" difficult or, on the other end of the spectrum, it's so beautiful or fun or interesting—we don't know we're expanding on every level. The friend having the moving sale is in such an exciting state of expansion to me. Some might say she simply has a lot of change going on but those changes are a part of her life—her digs, her opportunities, her outlook, her career, her potential, her heart, her soul—expanding in incredibly amazing and wonderfully different ways that will take her places she's never been before, places she can't yet imagine or dream of—whether she realizes it or recognizes it as positive or not while she's in the middle of it.
There's been much expansion going on for me so far this year—some I can see, some I can't. I can barely get my jeans buttoned. That I can see for sure. I'm not going to lie, I'd like to contract my fat a bit and expand my muscles in the coming months. Finishing my portion of the editing was incredibly expansive for me and something I can see now but in the middle of it, I thought it was going to kill me. Every day I did it, every day I got through one more scene I expanded my confidence—as a filmmaker, as an editor, as a person—and my documentary film's movement towards completion. Expansion.
I can't help but wonder how doing nothing yesterday might have expanded me in ways I can't see yet. Or was I just simply in a state of stasis? Is "no change" sometimes a part of change and ultimate expansion? Am I always expanding? Probably. Definitely. Well, at least I'm pretty sure that everything—and even nothing—leads to and is a part of expansion. Okay, this is getting a little too deep, time to sign off and go expand whether I know it or not.
Until tomorrow, create from what you have…expansion.


Pairing it down even further.
I'm lucking enough to own a lot of great pens. But that means that I can't use all of them. Or I can at least not use all of them all the time.
I own a few Retro51's, three Pilot Metropolitan, one Lamy Safari, two TWSBI Eco, one TWSBI 580AL, a Lamy 2000, A Pilot Vanishing Point, a Pilot Metal Falcon and one Noodlers Ahab.
The way it works for me is that the pens I use is the ones I have in my Nock Hightower. It has room for three pens. And I have a system for rotating the pens in it. Too few pens means that you run out of ink, and too many means that they dry up or that you spend more time making sure that they don't dry up than you spend writing with them.
My problem before I started to move pens out of rotation, first with the Metropolitans and then the Eco's was that there was three pens I enjoyed way more than the others. I love the Metropolitan, but I enjoyed the other five pens way more. And I also loved the Eco's but I loved the other three pens more.
The result was that I almost never used them, except for when it felt like "I had to". Therefore I decided to clean and rotate out everything that I didn't enjoyed the most. And I'll probably ink them up when I test out inks.

ACORN India on the BBC: How Dharavi Coped with Coronavirus
Home / ACORN India on the BBC: How Dharavi Coped with Coronavirus
ACORN India, India, Updates from the Field
By digital 5 November, 2020
BBC featured an update on the pandemic in Dharavi, where public health programs and aid from organizations such as ACORN have helped decrease infections and deaths. As one of the most intensely packed places on earth, it is incredibly positive news to see that cases and deaths are down. Local leaders attribute this to local health workers who know the slum well and are able to go door to door, and aid from NGO's and civil society.
"I would put this down to about 6,000 health workers combing every street, doing tests…since they know the slums, they are able to track all the cases," says ACORN organizer Vinod Shetty. "It's mainly been civil society and NGO's which are responsible for the feeding of the whole of Dharavi and the kind of support that was given at the worst possible time. It was civil society, social network of organizations that rose to the occasion and kept the kitchens running."
Listen to the full story on the BBC.

Q: Generics and polymorphism What is the difference between generics and polymorphism? I know it has something to do with compile time or binding, but I'm not sure. Please provide some code examples.

A: In addition to previous answers... I'll use Java, but the concept is pretty much the same. Java Generic methods and generic classes enable programmers to specify, with a single method declaration, a set of related methods or, with a single class declaration, a set of related types, respectively.
e.g.

Using Java Generic concept, we might write a generic method for
  sorting an array of objects, then invoke the generic method with
  Integer arrays, Double arrays, String arrays and so on, to sort the
  array elements.

public class GenericMethodTest
{
// generic method printArray
public static < E > void printArray( E[] inputArray )
{
  // Display array elements
     for ( E element : inputArray ){
        System.out.printf( "%s ", element );
     }
     System.out.println();
}

public static void main( String args[] )
{
    // Create arrays of Integer, Double and Character
    Integer[] intArray = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };
    Double[] doubleArray = { 1.1, 2.2, 3.3, 4.4 };
    Character[] charArray = { 'H', 'E', 'L', 'L', 'O' };

    System.out.println( "Array integerArray contains:" );
    printArray( intArray  ); // pass an Integer array

    System.out.println( "\nArray doubleArray contains:" );
    printArray( doubleArray ); // pass a Double array

    System.out.println( "\nArray characterArray contains:" );
    printArray( charArray ); // pass a Character array
}
}

Polymorphism is the ability of an object to take on many forms. The most common use of polymorphism in OOP occurs when a parent class reference is used to refer to a child class object.

It is important to know that the only possible way to access an object is through a reference variable. A reference variable can be of only one type. Once declared, the type of a reference variable cannot be changed.

e.g.
 public interface Vegetarian{}
 public class Animal{}
 public class Deer extends Animal implements Vegetarian{}

Now following declarations are legal:
Deer d = new Deer();
Animal a = d;
Vegetarian v = d;
Object o = d;

A: Polymorphism is a property of classes, in that they implement a common interface, or are derived from a base class, implementing virtual methods in a different way to reflect the different behavior of derived classes.
Generics is a property of an algorithm, or a class implementing an algorithm (sort) or a common operation (lists), requiring the classes they deal with to have certain methods, properties, or interfaces.

Q: How to send data in real time in React-Redux without hanging my UI? I am new in react-redux.
Scenario: I have a form with lot of text fields. When I enter a value into the field, following process takes place:
Field value => socket.emit data => socket.on => action called => redux state update => ui updates
There is no save button.
Problem is that, I feel this is a long cycle to update a single value in the redux state.
When UI re-renders (as redux updates), the form hangs for 2-3 seconds. So, I cannot enter value in other fields in this time interval.
Isn't there a short way or optimization to update my UI while sending real time data ?

A: Without looking at your code it would be difficult to suggest exact changes. But even then, here goes.

*

*Use state to store immediate changes : All the text fields should be bound to a state field (json object) which would be updated by the onChange handlers on of each of the textfields. This state field should receive the initial form data from the props passed to the form.

*Compare state field with initial data to decide whether changes have occurred: Compare the state field with the initial data passed as props to decide whether any changes have occurred.

*Delay the call to update the redux state: Use a function like lo-dash's debounce to update the redux state at set intervals or on page navigation events, when the state field and the props initial state differ.

This would save your UI from unnecessary re-renders and hopefully resolve the issue with the UI freezing on you. Hope this helps!

A: Agreed; I would take the optimistic approach here and store mutations locally in either component state or application state.
If your incoming props aren't nested deep you can also make use of React.PureComponent which does a shallow comparison of nextProps vs. currentProps to determine whether re-rendering is necessary.


"Hey, Whats your name? I'm Sophia, Call me Soph though"
"I-i, *cough* I'm fine just a little.. Hungry! yeah that's it.."
"You never let me do what I want! Just because you are blessed with the power of the Gemini Doesn't make you better!"
"Excuse me, Do you know where the boss's office is?"
"You know, Liliana, I-1 could come with you...."
"Ajax, its so obvious she is in love with you! How could I ever win her heart..."

N. Koreans Fail Steroids Test, Blame Lightning (Again)
Team says players took natural medicine after big zap
By John Johnson, Newser Staff
Posted Jul 16, 2011 11:27 AM CDT

Boy, that was some lightning strike. When North Korea's women's soccer team lost to USA, it blamed the lingering effects of a lightning strike from earlier in the month. Now that five of its players have tested positive for steroids at the World Cup, the team is pulling out the lightning strike excuse again, reports AP: It says players recovering from the zap took traditional Chinese medicine—specifically the extract of a gland from a musk deer—that might be confused with steroids.
"This is a shock," said FIFA's president. "We are confronted with a very, very bad case of doping and it hurts." The agency's scientists are looking into the musk deer explanation—it wouldn't be the first time a naturally occurring substance has raised doping concerns in sports—and a disciplinary committee will take up the case. Meanwhile, team USA plays for the World Cup championship against Japan at 2:45 ET tomorrow. (Read more North Korea stories.)

Q: Color difference between UINavigationBar Tint Color and rest of app in IOS This is my design in Sketch:

Sketch says that the blue color is 70,164,239.
So I have the following code for my tab:
UINavigationBar.appearance().barTintColor = UIColor(red: 70.0/255.0, green: 164.0/255.0, blue: 239.0/255.0, alpha: 1.0)
UINavigationBar.appearance().tintColor = UIColor.clearColor()
UINavigationBar.appearance().titleTextAttributes = [NSForegroundColorAttributeName : UIColor.whiteColor()]

And the following for the view underneath (inside an action):
self.two_buttons_view.backgroundColor = UIColor(red: 70.0/255.0, green: 164.0/255.0, blue: 239.0/255.0, alpha: 1.0)

But look what's going on, the Navigation Bar color is always a little lighter than the color of the view. With this light blue there's only a slight difference but if I go with a darker blue it gets much more noticeable. It appears that the navigation bar's colors are never as rich as the rest of pages views are:

A: The tintColor is a tint color. It combines with the translucency (is that a word?) of the bar, along with what's behind the bar, to give some other resulting color.
If you want full control over the actual color of a navigation bar, set its translucent to false and then give it a background image consisting of a rectangle of the desired color - and no tint color.
