New Aberdeen chairman Dave Cormack says he won't sell stars like Sam Cosgrove on the cheap

Aberdeen chairman Dave Cormack
won't rule out selling prize assets like Lewis Ferguson, Scott McKenna and Sam Cosgrove next month but he insists they will only be allowed to leave on the Pittodrie club's terms.
McKenna has already been the subject of several failed bids from the likes of Celtic, Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest in the recent past, while manager Derek McInnes has voiced fears that Ferguson and Cosgrove will be targeted in January.
English Championship sides Stoke City and Middlesbrough have already been credited with an interest in striker Cosgrove, who cost just £25,000 when he signed from Carlisle United and has already bagged 19 goals this season. He has notched 40 in the past 15 months.
Speaking after last night's agm – when Cormack replaced a tearful Stewart Milne, who had spent 21 years in the role – the Atlanta-based Aberdonian made it clear none of the Dons' top players will be sold on the cheap.
"We are under no pressure to sell anyone and we'll only do that on our terms" was Cormack's reassuring claim. "It doesn't matter what player it is, we don't need to sell.
"Obviously, if there is a substantial return on a player and it makes sense for us then obviously we would consider it but we would only do that after speaking to Derek and it makes sense for him, with his ins and outs for the window.
"We are all human beings, players have contracts and like in the case of Scott McKenna there has been interest but not to the level we wanted. Some clubs have felt like it's just little Aberdeen so they will just accept a tiny wee offer but that's not the case.
"Our goal is to bring through a conveyor belt of players which we can, at the right time for us, monetise. That is the aim, but we will only sell players when the time is right for us.
"We made the investment in Cormack Park to get to that stage, that's part of what we're doing."
Cormack, inset, has already made a major impact at the club even before taking over as chairman by raising the £12.5 million needed for the construction of the training complex at Kingsford, named Cormack Park in his honour.
Now the task is to raise the £45m to construct the neighbouring new stadium but he is equally ambitious when it comes to on-field targets and after being a key figure in persuading manager McInnes to reject offers to move to Sunderland and Rangers he is undaunted by challenging the Old Firm.
He added: "Our aspiration is do the best we can do every season so nobody is going into any season believing we can't win all the trophies. The reality is that a wage differential exists but we are focused on punching above our weight. Had the league been based on away results last season we would have won the league."
Meanwhile, McInnes confirmed one person he expects to leave next month is midfielder Stephen Gleeson, who has made just eight starts since joining Aberdeen from Ipswich Town last year.
Scottish Premiership winners to finish on 97 points - but is it Celtic or Rangers as data experts predict surprise team to be relegated
Gleeson is fully fit again but has only played one minute of top-team football this season after coming on as a last-minute substitute in the 3-0 win at Fir Park in October.
McInnes said: "Stephen will be given encouragement to move on in January. He is back training and has been injured since the start of pre-season.
"The ideal window to move him to get regular football would have been July and August but it wasn't possible. From Stephen's personal point of view he would like to find a club down south in January."

Report Coverage-
The report analyzes the air ambulance services industry by considering contributions, prospects, and growth trends. It presents detailed profiles of every key player operating in the market to analyze their core competencies in each segment. Apart from that, it ensures to help our clients better understand the competitive developments, such as mergers & acquisitions, new product launches, joint ventures, and collaborations.
Drivers & Restraints-
Increasing Prevalence of Strokes, Heart Attacks, and Trauma to Boost Growth
The urgent need to transport patients suffering from trauma incidents, heart attacks, and strokes raises the demand for these ambulance services as these patients require time-sensitive therapies in hospitals. In the U.S., for instance, more than 4 million people suffer from serious injuries owing to road accidents every year. Similarly, in Europe, approximately a million people suffer from strokes annually. Hence, time-dependent surgical or medical intervention is necessary in numerous cases of chronic ailments.
However, compared to ground ambulance services, the mode of air transportation involves high-cost spending. It usually costs between USD 3,000 to USD 24,000 based on the distance. Hence, the majority of the population cannot afford it. This factor may obstruct the air ambulance services market growth in the upcoming years.
Regional Insights-
Presence of Air Methods and PHI Air Medical to Help North America Dominate
In 2020, North America procured USD 1.96 billion in terms of revenue. It is anticipated to remain in the dominant position on account of the presence of various air ambulance service providers, namely, PHI Air Medical, Acadian Companies, Air Medical Group Holdings, and Air Methods in the U.S. In Europe, the surging investment by prominent companies for the development of unique technologies for enhancing ambulance service operations is expected to bolster growth.

Q: What is Lydia's preferred armor loadout? (Related to this question) what is the ideal set of armor for Lydia? I know she's a heavy armor kind of gal, but from the other question its obvious bigger isn't always better. Should I smith her armor so it is unequivocally better, or will she still prefer, e.g., an ebony helmet?

A: In my experiences, companions equip the item with the highest sale value, not the highest armor rating. It appears the same thing applies to weapons. Can anyone confirm this?

A: I've loaded her up with full Daedric before, no problem. Don't see why Ebony would be any different. I think the only requirement is that it be better than her default Steel Armor. NPC equipment behavior is strange though.
Also, if you ever have an issue where she's equipping something that's a downgrade (which you're just pack-muling on to her), just trade the weaker piece of equipment off her. You may juggle your weight around, but it will keep her in what you're wanting her to wear.

A Facebook post from a B R Bhaskar Prasad, a close acquaintance and an aide of the former Media adviser to the chief minister of Karnataka Mr. Dinesh Amin Mattu has caused a lot of buzz in the social media off-late. Mr. Bhaskar Prasad has accused the former media adviser of being closely associated with contract killers and to have also shared the address and personal details of a writer with whom he had ideological differences. Mr. Prasad has accused Mr. Mattu of trying to silence the voice of the writer by killing him.
In his post Prasad speaks about how Mr. Dinesh went on to give a free hand to the perpetrators of the crime and how he had assured them of controlling the police so that they could escape without being brought to justice.
Mr. Mattu had serious ideological differences with a writer and had taken constant jibes at the writer. Certain posts from the media advisor to the former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah were at a personal level and were of bad taste. However, it was all fine when they were limited to social media posts. However, the recent discourse of events and the way things have turned out in the near past have raised serious questions on the law and order situation that existed in the state and the way in which a lot of issues were handled by the government in the past.
If what is said by Bhaskar Prasad is to be believed former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and his media advisor Dinesh Amin Mattu will have to answer few tough questions that the people of the state are seeking answers for!
1.) Was the media advisor to the chief minister misusing his powers to silence the voices of those who didn't fall in line with his political ideologies?
2.) Did Mr. Mattu affect and influence the way in which the police acted and investigated various cases in the past?
3.) Was the basic rights of people to express their opinions and views under serious threat?
4.) Was this political influence an important factor in rendering the police investigation of writers and activists like Gauri Lankesh and Prof. KM Kalaburgi ?
5.) There were questions raised about the deaths of an IAS officer and involvement of contract killers in the case as well! These claims were rubbished later. Was this a blatant misuse of power ?
6.) Did the Government or and the media advisor misuse the office for their own Personal benefits and to fuel personal vendetta?
Neither Dinesh Amin Mattu or the former chief minister Siddaramaiah have come out in open or have commented on this so far. Here are a few updates on why this mud slinging between Bhaskar Prasad and Dinesh Mattu are important. The Udupi chalo event organized by the duo and inviting Dalit leader Jignesh Mevani and other Congress leaders to the event caused lead to the misunderstanding between the two. While Prasad wanted this event to an ideological one void of political leaders Mattu wanted to showcase the Congress power in this event. Ever since then the two had distanced themselves from each other. This is not the first time the allegations of misuse of power and office has been made on Mr. Mattu. He had filed cases against a set of activists associated with a group called Nilume. This had happened after Dinesh Mattu had written an article in which he had written a lot of degrading opinions on the sage Vivekananda. His comments that " People who vote for BJP are eunuchs" and his posts celebrating the defeat of BJP in Bihar when holding a government office had stirred a lot of controversies in the past.


In the second episode of Batman: The Animated Series we see that someone is setting out to frame Batman, attacking individuals at night while decked out as a flying bat. First instinct says it'd Man-Bat, but another genius crook pulling off such a stunt doesn't seem to be out of the realm of possibility.
When Batman gets down to the hands on investigation, he makes a mistake in letting himself be glimpsed. Wouldn't you know it, Bullock is gung-ho and hot on Batman's trail, obviously convinced he's the one responsible for all of these attacks.
Through the streets of Gotham he barrels. And… did I mention the vintage look of these cartoons has always been amazing, and one of the true elements that sets this animated Batman series apart from all others? Well, now I have.
Commissioner Gordon shows up just in time to inform Bullock that a pharmacy across town is in the process of being robbed. And, of course, it's a bat committing such theft, thus proving that Bullock has the wrong guy – no doubt about it.
That's Bullock for you… being… well, Bullock.
It doesn't take long for Batman to learn that there's something shady about Doctors March and Kirk Langstrom. You can bet your batarang he's going to force the truth from these two in a hurry, just to ensure he keeps his name clear.
It takes but minutes for Batman to catch Langstrom in the act of transforming. And to be real, it's a pretty damn frightening scene to behold, as the doc undergoes a surprisingly complex transformation before settling in to the role of the Man-Bat as we know him.
The story takes an interesting turn when Batman decides against turning the Man-Bat in to law enforcement, instead opting to bring him back to the Bat Cave, where perhaps something can be done for the man/monster.
Can the doc be saved? Is he doomed to transform for the rest of his days? How will his lovely wife handle the turmoil? Oh the drama!
This is a great episode, and I love that this animated series comes right out of the gate swinging big, looking for the homerun. It's not some multi-episode, drawn out origin we dive into, it's all out chaos with plenty of familiar and fan favorite Batman foes. Dissecting this entire series is going to be a blast!
Throwback Superhero Cartoon of the Day: 2 Hour Mega Block of Captain America (1966)!
Who doesn't love Captain America?
This super-powered cultural icon has never been hotter. With a new flick headed our way, in addition to the slew of other Marvel movies featuring this not-quite-naturally-born leader, everyone is talking about the 'Cap. He's arguably the coolest Avenger in existence, his books have long been fan favorites, and once upon a time, way back in 1966, he was the star of his own original cartoon.
Check out an awesome collection of the first seven episodes below. This is a slick two hour vid that'll you admiring the All American Hero, no doubt about it!
Namor fans will likely agree that this gent rarely gets the respect he deserves. That's certainly how we feel, which is exactly why we've chosen to put Namor in the spotlight for today's throwback cartoon of the day.
Check it out below, it's pretty friggin' awesome!


With the landing of the Curiosity rover on Mars, there will be large amounts of raw imagery available to the public from that mission. But it is hardly the first mission to provide this service. The Mars Exploration Rovers, the Cassini orbiter at Saturn, and other missions have also provided raw image data to the public.
Some people can take these images and turn them into beautiful works, and can release professional-quality images that would otherwise have never been made, greatly increasing the value of the mission data.
I created this image from 3 raw frames from the Cassini mission taken with red, green, and blue filters. I failed to adjust the position of Rhea in each frame, so Rhea appears to be in different places in each color channel. Ultimately I liked the effect and decided to leave it as-is.
This image was created from 3 adjusted raw frames from the Viking 2 orbiter during its approach to Mars in 1976. The images were taken using red, green, and violet filters. Some of the calibration dots have been removed. I did my best to approximate true color.
This image was created from an Apollo 8 color film frame, around the December solstice 1968. It has been color corrected and level adjusted, and blemishes have been removed. The planet has been cropped out and the background has been replaced with black.
Do you have a link for some raw image database ?
Yes! I meant to add links when I posted this, but I forgot. I will edit the OP to include links.
I've created some new Titan images from raw Cassini shots. For each I've also linked the specific raw frames that I used to create it.
This is a near-true color image of Titan from 25 July 2012, created from red, green, and blue filter images. I had to adjust the brightness of each channel since the exposures seem to have been different, hence the departure from true color. I also had to move the red channel to match the others. There is still a small offset because Titan is different sizes in each frame, but I didn't care enough to correct it.
This is a true color image of Titan from 24 July 2012, created from red, green, and blue filter images. I adjusted each frame so that the background would be black, I moved the blue image so that it would align properly, then I cloned out the hot pixels and defects from the final composite.
This image was extremely easy to do. If anyone wants to try this for themselves, I recommend doing this image. The only thing that needs to be done is to compose an RGB image from the red, green, and blue color frames. And that's all. No alignment necessary, no color adjustments necessary, no level or contrast adjustments necessary.
In my image I have cloned out a few hot pixels and increased the saturation, but those are very minor changes.
What is it - a cloud-like spot on the right dark side on the first image?
It looks almost as if you're looking out the window of a spacecraft arriving at Mars!
That's not Mimas; it looks like Rhea, though I'm not sure.
I think its Mimas as it has that large crater on the top left of the sphere.
That is not Herschel crater; Herschel is much bigger relative to the moon, and located differently. Several of Saturn's moons have similar craters. Mimas has a much rougher and more cratered surface than that, and is also smaller and not colored like that.
These all look fantastic. Don't have to means, tools, or time to do this myself though so keep the awesome pictures coming. I require more images for my space images folder.
I require more images for my space images folder.
I have an old IDE hard drive I put in an external shell, 100GBs. I got a backup drive thats 500GBs so I didn't need the 100 anymore so I just had a download of high resolution NASA images go to it. I pretty much filled it up but I still have a couple GBs left. Uncompressed NASA images are really really large, couple images are over 300MB(not of other planets the very large images are of Earth and the moon).
Uncompressed NASA images are really really large, couple images are over 300MB(not of other planets the very large images are of Earth and the moon).
Maybe we should make an off-topic discussion so everyone can compare their respective Space collections?

Developers beware: Apple's latest crackdown has started this weekend. App marketing companies have noticed that their apps that retrieve the end user's Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) but don't show ads are getting rejected by the App Store, reports TechCrunch.
The move comes after Apple warned developers several times last year to make the necessary changes by rejecting apps using cookie-tracking and Mac-tracking methods. Now that the majority of developers have already started using it, Apple is informing them how to and how not to use IDFA.
It is worth mentioning here that ad networks charge advertisers based on installs. The advertiser sends the identifier toward the ad network for tracking purposes. By rejecting apps that doesn't show ad functionality, Apple is sending a message to both advertisers and developers. The only problem is that the company's reasoning is not entirely clear.
Some app marketing companies say Apple is after putting more control in the end user's hands with the Advertising Identifier – and advertising identifier reset is equivalent to deleting cookies from your Web browser – while others say Apple is trying to put its iAd service in a better position.
Tapstream believes Apple is sending a signal to advertisers to switch to the Cost Per Click (CPC) method from Cost Per Install (CPI), which is the worst way for – advertisers. But the app marketing company also warns that the CPC method provides a poor user experience, so this move could be part of Apple's fight against techniques used to move apps up in App Store's charts through inorganic means, as even the usual app install ads can be used to manipulate the App Store's top charts.


Rafael Benitez says he has no long-term plans for Newcastle United as he reiterated his disappointment in the club's transfer dealings.
Following their promotion from the Championship, Newcastle have started their Premier League return with two defeats.
Although Jacob Murphy, Florian Lejeune, Joselu and Javier Manquillo have all been brought in this summer, Benitez expected more investment in the first team from owner Mike Ashley.
"We won the Championship and we made £30 million profit. I had a meeting with Mike and I was expecting we could be in a better position than we are now. We are not," he said.
"We will see if we can improve as much as we can this week. I will try to do my job.
"How much can I improve the team? It depends on how well we work and how much the players can learn.
"My aim is trying to improve things, so when I leave, whenever it is, I would like to be sure that the team and the football club will be better.
"Normally, managers talk about projects saying they need four or five years. I'm not talking about that, because you never know in football.
"But when we came here we knew there were some issues and we had to improve things. I am sure we have improved some things. But we need to improve more."
The Spaniard does, however, wish to take the Magpies to a stable position in the Premier League, but insists it will take time.
"What I want is that we have a football vision and allow the business to also be productive and make a profit, but football has to be a priority.
"Don't forget, I went to Real Madrid - there was no project - Napoli, Inter, no project.
"In England you can talk about that, when I went to Liverpool we said: 'In three years we can start challenging for titles'.


This is a favourite walk I've been doing for years - essentially a stroll through one of the posher parts of London, some mews, hidden pubs and lots of embassies! Takes about twenty to thirty minutes depending on how slow you walk. If you stop in the nearby pubs - and there are nice ones on this route - then this time can easily stretch to a full afternoon.
My walk from Harrods to Victoria Station; note the interesting mews diversion down Kinnerton Street - to find The Nags Head and the Wilton Arms.
A few years ago - before time began, before Land Securities redeveloped Cardinal Place in Victoria Street - I worked in Portland House. For those of you that don't know, Portland House is a 1963 concrete skyscraper near London's Victoria Station. If you've been in the area, you've probably seen it standing like an inappropriate erection menacing the surrounding area. However, it does have a good view from the top floors over the nearby private Buckingham Palace Gardens (Hi Queenie - put that bikini top back on).
I had a stressful job back in the early 2000's. I know, I know, you weep for me. Occasionally though I would break the chains of my captors, shoo away the ravenous eagles pecking at my vitals, and head West (young man). I'd explore the quieter streets of Belgravia. So when my company moved to Belgrave House on Buckingham Palace Road a year or two later, I found I could walk to Harrods in my lunch hour. Once there I'd give my Harrods loyalty card a heavy work out. That's how I roll. And so the Victoria Station to Harrods walk or - it's more famous cousin - the Harrods to Victoria Station walk was born.
I retraced my steps recently, reminding myself, as I walked, of memories, memories of people and situations long gone but, as I turned familiar corners, not forgotten. For you see, whilst I often did this walk alone, I often didn't. There was a girl once. There's always a girl. But I'll get to that.
As you come out of Harrods, turn away from Brompton Road, past the tube exit and into Hans Crescent. Latterly, this quiet road has become infamous as the place where that self-regarding idiot Julian Assange turns a whiter shade of pale inside the Ecuadorian Embassy. But also, marvel at the illegally parked limos littering the road. Clearly very rich people can't be expected to obey petty traffic restrictions. They have to launder, sorry spend, their ill gotten gains in Harrods.
There's just one pub, latterly called the anodyne The Alfred Tennyson but previously, the more spicy Turk's Head. In either incarnation I never much liked it and, on my last visit, it seemed a restaurant masquerading as a bar. Anyway, I always turn left just in front of the pub and walk down the mews that is Kinnerton Street. Clearly I never go in Gordon Ramsay's Petrus. Instead I head to the rather marvellous Nag's Head and less marvellous but more spacious Wilton Arms.
The Nag's Head has two bars; a tiny front bar - curiously low down - and a larger room down some stairs at the back. It didn't allow mobile phones nor - as I found out - laptops. It's a quirk but one I'm happy to abide by. I fondly think that much of Franco's Fiesta was handwritten here. It wasn't. That privilege goes to the bar in Burgess Hill's Beefeater. A classy joint where you get thrown out for not wearing a football top.
Years back, I used to hold team meetings in the Nag's Head, gaining the respect of my team by playing endless games of Shag, Marry, Push Off a Cliff. I usually ended up as 'Marry' which personally I'm okay with.
The pub almost next door - The Wilton - is a bit louder, a bit brassier. Outside in the summer it tends to be populated by Belgravia estate agents braying loudly about their latest deal. I've eaten here a couple of times. Nothing special.
A twist and a turn and we're on Wilton Crescent, one of those gorgeous arched stucco terraces that home old money, embassies and money launderers. When I make my millions, I think I might buy here. No, not a flat. A whole house. And then I could pop out to The Grenadier - London's most difficult to find pub which is out back, in another mews. I'm usually too pissed to find it. It's worth a stop. Tell Madonna 'hello' from me. I still remember that night in Ciprianis.
A white van on Belgrave Square January 2019. Tim's skill as a professional photographer are called into question.
Into Belgrave Square and we're now into serious embassy country. Armed police, CCTV, manic taxi drivers, diplomatic plates, Simón Bolivar statue. Then down Upper Belgrave Street. Usually I'm picking up the pace by this point because either I've got a train to catch or - more likely - I'm needing the loo. A good place to stop is another hidden mews pub - The Horse and Groom. There's a couple of tables outside on the road, summertime this area in front of the pub gets crowded. It's much quieter in the afternoons if you've snuck out for a cheeky half. Yeah, WTF is a 'cheeky half'?
Now I've really got my head down and heading towards the station. Two points of interest. First is St Peter's church. Now this could be either Upper Belgrave Street, Lower Belgrave Street or Eaton Square. Not a clue. Shame someone couldn't invent software where one could look up these things - you know like a telephone directory but online. Anyway, it's a pretty church in a vaguely temple type way. It's the picture at the top of the page. And then we have The Plumbers Arms. If I'm heading in Victoria / Harrods direction this tends to be my first port of call.
The Plumbers Arms, Lower Belgrave Street. Lord Lucan not pictured.
Of course, it's famous as the place where Lady Lucan fled to after getting whacked on the head by her soon to be missing husband (they lived opposite). The staff seem to have no idea about the history of their pub and look at me like I'm a nutter when I ask about it. Anyway, it's a decent boozer, usually busy, not bad food. Good place to start but not end the walk.
Back in the 90's I attended South Bank University doing some useless Masters Degree. There I met a girl. Both of us had other attachments. I suppose we all have our secrets... We used to go into The Princess Victoria - as it then was - and make plans, organising the gloomy logistics of our affair. I don't remember there being many laughs. And then a furtive kiss outside before I headed off back down to the South Coast and she went home to Hammersmith to another man.
I raise a glass to the memory when I go in.
And then, cross the mayhem of Buckingham Palace Road to the Station - now thankfully liberated from the ridiculous three foot high fence that we all vaulted pissed trying to get our train. Some colleagues would mistime their jumps and end up sprawled in the road (yeah, you know who you are).
To conclude, do this walk either way. Do it in winter. Do it in summer. Do it sober and take in the great architecture, the sedate upstairs / downstairs history. Do it for the shops or exercise. Or have a great pub crawl in some great pubs with a sense of the past, with stories to tell, in places you wouldn't normally find pubs without knowing. Do it for me. Or for an idea of me. Once.
Outside the Victoria pub. There was once a wall where that white van is. No one cares.

Fine Arts 306
Visiting Assistant Professor of Theatre Amy Rebecca King organized a panel titled "Mixed-Asian Casting" for the 2022 Association for Theatre in Higher Education Annual Conference, held July 28–31 in Detroit, Michigan. Even though multicultural people make up the fastest-growing demographic in America, they are underrepresented in the media. This panel explored the issues that multicultural actors, specifically mixed-Asian actors, experience in the casting industry. King, along with her colleagues Reiko Aylesworth (Southern Methodist University) and Robert Torigoe (University of Hawaii), gathered interviews with actor Amy Hill, casting director Victor Vazquez, and editor-in-chief of Mixed Asian Media Alex Chester and explored the experiences of mixed-Asian actors, as well as the difficulties of casting according to race in film/TV, theatre, and media. The session was very well attended, and the first-time panelists have been invited back to present at next year's conference.

As a biracial Asian actor, she has witnessed the direct effects of whiteness and the patriarchy in casting throughout her entire career.

Dexter: The Complete Fourth Season
Review Date August 18th, 2010 by Aaron Peck
Overview - Dexter has always managed to get himself out of tough situations. But he suddenly finds himself in unfamiliar territory - life in suburbia. Now a husband and father of three, Dexter struggles to balance his family's needs with his ongoing duties as a blood spatter analyst for Miami Metro Homicide. The exhaustion is taking its toll, and as sleepless nights start to threaten his job performance, Dexter wonders if maybe he's taken on more than he can handle. And he'll need to stay sharp - the department is busier than ever, with two new murders on their hands. The detectives, Debra included, are surprised when Special Agent Frank Lundy returns to share his theories on the case. Lundy believes they're dealing with a serial killer he's been chasing for years, whom he's dubbed "the Trinity Killer". Meanwhile, Dexter's Dark Passenger drives him to seek out a fresh victim. But with so much already on his plate, is Dexter up to the task?

Now this is television! For me, 'Dexter' is the best show on TV. As of right now there isn't a show that comes close to its character dynamics, its plot complexities, and its out-right thrilling reveals. By now you should know who 'Dexter' is, what he does, and why this show is so damn good. I'll skip over the whole backstory of Dexter's serial killer history, because if you're into the fourth season you should know what has happened until now and what to expect. I realize many people wait until the Blu-rays come out to watch their favorite shows, so I won't spoil (much) of season four. Just so you're aware though, I may just spoil things from seasons one through three, which serves you right if you haven't gotten in on this show by now.
Not only is 'Dexter' the best show on television, season four was the best season so far. It was absolutely killer (pun intended).
Dexter finds himself struggling with family life. Most shows head off the rails when pregnancy and babies are introduced, but not this one. The entire show is focused around how Dexter is able to deal with real-life situations while being a monster inside. How does someone who kills people in his spare time handle a baby? What does he tell that baby? How does he raise it? Is he afraid it will grow up to be like him? What a perfect twist on a plot line that has been used over and over in TV shows.
While battling with his family and sleep deprivation from sleepless nights of baby crying, Dexter also has to worry about his sister Deb and her screwed up life. Besides Dexter, Deb is the most complicated character on the show, watching her grow and learn can be frustrating at times, but we understand she's a rock in Dexter's life. She keeps him grounded. Rita (his wife) has, for the first few seasons, been used more as a mask more or less by Dexter in order to seem normal. It's Deb who really gives Dexter someone to care for, so when her life is so screwed up with her unhealthy relationships, Dexter finds himself trying to protect her.
Finally, let's talk about the reason this season is some of the best TV I've watched in years. Two words: John Lithgow. Lithgow plays the Trinity Killer, another serial killer foe for Dexter to face. Although, Trinity is like no other villain you've ever witnessed. Lithgow is creepiness personified. Each time he's on screen he makes your skin crawl. It's an awesomely grotesque performance.
Once Dexter comes in contact with Trinity, the scenes are electric. Who's going to give first? Who's going to come out on top? This was the first time in a long while where I honestly had no idea what was going to happen in a TV show. Usually you know that your protagonist is safe and sound and will live to fight again another day, here I was never quite sure. The writing in season four keeps you on your toes.
If you haven't seen Dexter - you shouldn't really have read this review – you need to get with it, because you're missing some fine television. Michael C. Hall ('Six Feet Under') is brilliant as the ever confused and evolving Dexter, but John Lithgow is the real treat in this season. You'd never know he played High Commander Dick Solomon on '3rd Rock from the Sun.' After playing Trinity, it's hard to imagine him as anyone else.
This season's got twists and turns aplenty, but the character development here is unrivaled by any other series. Even the side characters perform their tasks perfectly by creating a world around Dexter that seems to be closing in. The real question is, will Dexter get caught? It seems imminent the longer the show goes on.
Like I said, I can't say enough good things about this series, and this season is the best so far. So what are you waiting for, go watch it already!
The Best Buy Exclusive for 'Dexter Season 4 comes with 3 50GB dics in a keepcase with a swinging separator in the middle which holds two of the three discs. The bonus fourth disc is packaged on the outside of the keepcase in a worthless slipcover which is almost impossible to fit inside the case itself.

1080p/MPEG-4 AVC
Having watched 'Dexter' throughout the season in 1080i on cable, let me say it's great having season four in full 1080p.
The previous 'Dexter' seasons have all featured stellar video transfers, and this season is no exception. Filming in the lush locale of South Florida 'Dexter' is able to make use of all the nighttime colors of South Beach, and also the rich greenery surrounding the Everglades. Detail is ramped up to the extreme. I know for sure the show didn't look this clear on TV. Every hair, fiber, and blood droplet is not only visible, but magnified. Details pop out all over the place. Facial detail like Batista's goatee and Dexter's five o'clock shadow are shining examples of what can be seen with this transfer.
While blocking was an occasional occurrence during the TV airings, here 'Dexter' is free and clear of any annoying compression artifacts. This baby is cleaner than one of Dexter's sterile crime scenes. Noise does pop up now and again, but it isn't anything that's caused by the transfer itself. Instead it has to do with how the show was shot in the first place.
South Florida is a sunny place, so there are brighter, outdoor shots that have whites burning a little hot. Faces take on a pinkish hue, mostly because the actors are filming in the hot sun all day. That's nothing to worry about though. I did notice some edge enhancement in a couple places, mostly on various background objects like trees.
Top to bottom, this is one of the best looking TV-on-Blu-ray releases out. There are a few minor hiccups along the way, but overall the show just looks stunning in high-def.
'Dexter's Dolby TrueHD 5.1 mix works almost as well as the video, producing a life-like soundfield that keeps us engaged throughout the season. High-Def Digest recently spoke with the show's Emmy nominated sound team, and their passion is clear on this release.
Dialogue, is perfectly balanced. Dexter's sullen voice-over narration is clean and clear. Dialogue, even when whispered, is never hushed or incomprehensible. LFE is plentiful, especially during the light-hearted title sequence that precedes every episode. Bass is also cranked during intense scenes as the music builds to a climax and dun, dun, duuuun something huge is revealed. Ambient sound comes crisp and clear through the surround speakers, like when Dexter visits a construction site where a home is being built, or when we're placed in the middle of a crowded police station. People milling about, sound effects happening off screen, they're all given proper directionality adding to the engulfing and realistic audio presentation.
While this isn't a show like '24,' which contains explosion after explosion, 'Dexter' does use its sound design to build suspense and tell part of the story. The Dolby TrueHD mix accompanying season four is a near perfect way to do so. This is a great sounding mix all around.
While some of the special features may also be available on the DVD release of season four, they're all accessed via BD-Live on the Blu-ray release, so I have included them below
'Dexter' is the best show on TV, and season four was the best season yet. More suspense, more development in Dexter's character, and more John Lithgow being the most creepy serial killer to walk the earth. I loved every second of this season, and I'm so glad to see yet another 'Dexter' Blu-ray presentation that gives the show the stellar video and audio it deserves. The features section is a little bland, and is only located on BD-Live. Still this set comes highly recommended. Fans need this one.

The People's Canopy is a mobile architectural structure designed specifically for the city of Preston by award-winning Beijing architects People's Architecture Office.
Designed by PAO on the theme of the city as a meeting place, the People's Canopy is a two-storey high expandable roof structure on bicycle wheels. The ten units are designed to collapse to the size of a double decker bus to be pedalled from one location to another and thereby transform underused public spaces; spaces for auto transport are turned into spaces for pedestrians and events, and open streets connected.
Following the success of the People's Canopy at Lancashire Encounter, the invitation was extended by the curatorial team at the Biennale of Urbanism/Architecture to present the Canopy in Hong Kong in December 2015. The Canopy featured in an exhibition at the Beijing Culture and Art Center alongside work by Rem Koolhaas and Sou Fujimoto. It was awarded a Red Dot design concept award in 2016 and has also been shown at exhibitions and used for festivals at: Shekou Design Museum, Shekou V&A Partnership; Bi-City Biennale of Urbanism/Architecture, Hong Kong 2015/16; Venice Biennial of Architecture; Utopia Festival in Leuven, Belgium.

Loved life Andrew Pereman was fatally injured in a fall from the Garden Centre in Squamish, which he was renovating.
A Squamish man who died after falling from a roof last weekend is being remembered as a loving husband and dad.
A celebration of life for Andrew Pereman, 37, is planned for Friday (Feb. 10) at the West Coast Railway Heritage Park in Squamish. Hundreds of people are expected to attend the event, which starts at 3 p.m. According to his wife, Natalie, Pereman's friends and family are travelling from all over Canada to attend the memorial event.
Pereman fell from a height of about six metres (20 feet) on Feb. 4 and was flown by air ambulance helicopter to hospital in Vancouver with injuries described as "substantial" after the fall from the Garden Centre roof on Mamquam Road.
Pereman and his wife were in the process of renovating a business they recently purchased together. They have been in the process of transforming and expanding the Garden Centre on Mamquam Road in Squamish to include fresh farm food sales, on-site food cultivation and small food vendor kiosks operating in conjunction with the retail garden centre.
According to his friends, Pereman was dedicated to his family. He was the father of two young daughters and met his wife through their love of slo-pitch. They played together on a Vancouver-based team that travelled to participate in tournaments.
"He was a natural athlete and excelled at every sport he tried," said his wife.
Pereman also enjoyed the outdoors, he liked to hunt and he loved listening to country music.
A memorial fund has been set up in Pereman's name at the Bank of Nova Scotia in Squamish to support his two daughters, who are aged five and two. Instead of giving flowers, Pereman's family requested contributions be made to the memorial fund.
At the time of the accident Al Malayko, the acting B.C. Ambulance Service Unit Chief in Squamish, said Pereman suffered multi-system trauma with confirmed head and neck injuries. Later in the day Pereman was pronounced dead as a result of the injuries suffered from his fall.
Pereman was a registered organ donor and according to his wife, a number of people received his organs.
The helicopter drew a significant amount of attention when it landed at Mamquam Elementary School just a few hundred metres away from the accident scene. Squamish Fire Rescue and the RCMP assisted by keeping the landing zone clear.
Onlookers gathered around the school and watched the helicopter touch down then take off after Pereman was transferred from an ambulance to the helicopter for the flight to Vancouver.
The accident is under investigation by WorkSafe BC and the Coroner's Service.

Q: mmap-loadable data structure library for C++ (or C) I have a some large data structure (N > 10,000) that usually only needs to be created once (at runtime), and can be reused many times afterwards, but it needs to be loaded very quickly. (It is used for user input processing on iPhoneOS.) mmap-ing a file seems to be the best choice.
Are there any data structure libraries for C++ (or C)? Something along the line
ReadOnlyHashTable<char, int> table ("filename.hash");
// mmap(...) inside the c'tor
...
int freq = table.get('a');
...
// munmap(...); inside the d'tor.

Thank you!

Details:
I've written a similar class for hash table myself but I find it pretty hard to maintain, so I would like to see if there's existing solutions already. The library should

*

*Contain a creation routine that serialize the data structure into file. This part doesn't need to be fast.

*Contain a loading routine that mmap a file into read-only (or read-write) data structure that can be usable within O(1) steps of processing.

*Use O(N) amount of disk/memory space with a small constant factor. (The device has serious memory constraint.)

*Small time overhead to accessors. (i.e. the complexity isn't modified.)

Assumptions:

*

*Bit representation of data (e.g. endianness, encoding of float, etc.) does not matter since it is only used locally.

*So far the possible types of data I need are integers, strings, and struct's of them. Pointers do not appear.

P.S. Can Boost.intrusive help?

A: You could try to create a memory mapped file and then create the STL map structure with a customer allocator.  Your customer allocator then simply takes the beginning of the memory of the memory mapped file, and then increments its pointer according to the requested size.
In the end all the allocated memory should be within the memory of the memory mapped file and should be reloadable later.
You will have to check if memory is free'd by the STL map.  If it is, your customer allocator will lose some memory of the memory mapped file but if this is limited you can probably live with it.

A: Sounds like maybe you could use one of the "perfect hash" utilities out there. These spend some time opimising the hash function for the particular data, so there are no hash collisions and (for minimal perfect hash functions) so that there are no (or at least few) empty gaps in the hash table. Obviously, this is intended to be generated rarely but used frequently.
CMPH claims to cope with large numbers of keys. However, I have never used it.
There's a good chance it only generates the hash function, leaving you to use that to generate the data structure. That shouldn't be especially hard, but it possibly still leaves you where you are now - maintaining at least some of the code yourself.

A: Just thought of another option - Datadraw. Again, I haven't used this, so no guarantees, but it does claim to be a fast persistent database code generator.

A: WRT boost.intrusive, I've just been having a look. It's interesting. And annoying, as it makes one of my own libraries look a bit pointless.
I thought this section looked particularly relevant.
If you can use "smart pointers" for links, presumably the smart pointer type can be implemented using a simple offset-from-base-address integer (and I think that's the point of the example). An array subscript might be equally valid.
There's certainly unordered set/multiset support (C++ code for hash tables).

A: Using cmph would work. It does have the serialization machinery for the hash function itself, but you still need to serialize the keys and the data, besides adding a layer of collision resolution on top of it if your query set universe is not known before hand. If you know all keys before hand, then it is the way to go since you don't need to store the keys and will save a lot of space. If not, for such a small set, I would say it is overkill.
Probably the best option is to use google's sparse_hash_map. It has very low overhead and also has the serialization hooks that you need.

Arrow Exterminating > Pest Control > Beware the "SEASONAL Invaders"!
Insect behavior and ecology is inextricably connected to the environment. If you have lived in a location with different seasons, you undoubtedly have noticed the changes in the insect population along with the changes in the seasons.
In the northeast we typically experience four (4) seasons; winter, spring, summer and fall. Each season has associated insects.
Winter has the least amount of insect activity. Spring provides an opportunity for plant and animal reproduction and growth. Summer is when insect populations are at their most diverse. In the fall, insect activity begins to decline.
Insects evolved in the tropics where there is typically ample rainfall and warm temperatures.
As insects began to migrate throughout the planet, they had to adapt different survival strategies to cope with different environments. Some insects moved into caves to spend the winter when it got too cold. I'm sure prehistoric peoples became aware of this behavior and did their best to manage the situation.
Today, certain insects still move indoors seeking shelter from the winter weather. We call these insects, "Seasonal Invaders". They have been behaving like this for millions of years. They mistakenly enter homes thinking they are caves.
Once inside, these seasonal invaders simply want to rest and wait until spring. Seasonal invaders do not reproduce or move around (unless disturbed) nor do they feed. The reason they enter structures is just to spend the winter in comfort. If they survive, they emerge in the spring and try to find their way back outside. If successful, they typically look for a mate, deposit eggs and die.
Each insect has a different control protocol. We will discuss these in the next installment.


Ready to climb on-board? Embark for a 50-minute cruise to the island of Groix, and its 2300 inhabitants at latitude 45°637 north and longitude 3°462 west. It is an idea size for walking and cycling: 8 km by 4 km. To the south: its beaches - To the north: a wild coastline.
Now you have set foot on Groix you can discover the multiple facets of this "little piece of land".
To find your way around, look at the stones, they will speak to you. Don't look for traffic lights, there aren't any.
Port Tudy is not just a charming Breton port. It is a vital link with the mainland, rhythmed by the arrival of the post. The walk up to the town offers a view of the houses of the shipbuilders and the family cinema with a facade decorated by Italian craftsmen. In the morning, the market sells a selection of island produce from the land and the sea. There are plenty of shops to be discovered wandering through the cleanly fronted streets. They are arranged around the church whose belfry is topped with the famous tuna, symbol of an era when tuning fishing left profound marks. The town's ecomuseum is full of information about this maritime era.
A bicycle is the perfect way to visit the island with 40 km of special tracks. There is also a taxi offering tours of the island. Thus you can discover the island at your own pace, the heather-filled moors of the Piwisy coast (west of the island), and the white or red sandy beaches of Primeture (east of the island). Megaliths, fountains and washhouses are all there to be discovered by the walker. A fragile land, Groix is subject to a management plan that seeks to find a balance between economic, tourist and farming activities and the preservation of its huge and remarkable natural reserves. Visit the nature reserves of Pen Men and the Pointe des Chats for an infinite source of wonder.
Its 2323 inhabitants make Groix a lively and convivial place, not a sanctuary turned to the past. The island is a treasure which its 2353 inhabitants share generously.
You have to get a little lost to ask an inhabitant the way, for another more human adventure to begin. Islands are always popular, and Groix is well worth a detour. To those who respect it, it offers an authentic and lasting impression.

'Play' is an activity that flows freely, may not have rules, is almost without rules, and that could start and end at any moment, and 'Game' is an activity that sets rules and does not break the rules.
By the eighth month, the baby's mother and/or the faces of the people who regularly take care of the baby act as a mirror for the baby. The baby then gains the ability to perceive and react to strangers with certainty. When a one-to-one relationship is established, the first 'play' begins. For example, let's consider 'peek-a-boo', described as the DA game by Sigmund Freud. With the increasing number of caregivers at the age of 2 and the baby's social acceptance of them into the communication network, new plays also emerge instead of this simple baby game, peek-a-boo. Almost all of these plays are body themed. The mother is the most important partner in these plays. This change should be perceived as a sign that the baby has begun to develop social characteristics. Now other people also take place in the baby's relationship with the mother; however, the mother always has more value and weight in the relationship.
Children up to the age of 2 play 'Play' games within the scope of this definition, especially games in which only one person, the caregiver and/or the mother participates. The initiator of the play is often the adult, with songs and movements, with the toys sometimes included or not (at such times, body parts become play elements as well). Play time is usually limited to a few minutes. The play ends when the child stops participating. What the adult starts, the child ends. The child cannot conduct the play by him or herself, it is necessary for the adult to continue to play. The desire to play and have a pleasant time is not initiated by the child. The request comes from the adult. The adult is not only willing to play but is also inviting and provocative. Re-play is common in the game. The game can start and end anytime, anywhere.
In this period, when a skill is developed and there is no winning or losing, the only purpose of play time is to have a good time. It helps to strengthen the relationship between the child and the adult as they get pleasure. These games, which contain cultural features, vary from house to house. Any play in this context is useful for relationship-building.
The most frequently played game is Peek-a-boo. It has a social feature. It helps to carry the tension created by the disappearance of the mother. Plush objects (Teddy bear, blanket etc.) which are called transitional objects, that are being dragged everywhere, appear. However, the relationship with these types of objects is not play. Even if playing alone with those objects is considered harmless by the mother, playing alone is not healthy for the child.
Playing in this age group is a means of having a good time. It makes the relationship healthier and more fulfilling. A child without play can mean an unrelated child. Unrelatedness is an unhealthy state. For this reason, it would be right to evaluate every opportunity as play time.
Playing, which is the most important job of the child during the pre-school period, will never disappear even though it decreases after starting school. With the advancement of age, 'Play' will diversify and become a part of social communication. 'Play' turns into 'Game'. Games now have rules and conditions. This time, the mother's place as a playmate begins to be replaced by peers from the social circle. As children begin to imitate the processes they observe in the adult world, this time in games, toys begin to appear as tools. On the other hand, there are games in which sometimes the body, sometimes talent, and sometimes intelligence is exhibited. All sports activities should be considered in this context.
Especially in the last twenty years, virtual game environments, which I think are very harmful to be considered as games, have become a favorite pastime of children and teens. Most of the time, they spend a very long time with computers, tablets and phones. Dealing with the unreal distracts children from reality. Especially in preschool children, it is often not possible to predict what kind of negativities virtual games leave behind. The time spent playing virtual games with the phone, the tablet, and especially the television, should be spent with parents as much as possible. With this application, precautions are taken against possible negative effects of children's development especially around primary school age.

As part of the huge goody bag from the Green Beauty Meet-Up back in September, we received a Balmology Try Me Set which includes three mini samples of their balms; Cleanse, Nourish & Comfort. I am in love with them and thought I'd share my thoughts as Balmology have just put them on sale on their website!
The Cleanse balm is a blend of Neroli and Sweet Basil in a luxurious, thick balm which melts on contact with the skin. The key ingredients are jojoba oil, apricot oil, castor oil and avocado which all work in harmony with each other to cleanse skin of any dirt and impurities.
It was love at first try with this balm. I need the full size! My skin absolutely loves this balm and it helps with my blackheads as well as any breakouts I might have. At £21.00 for a 50g jar, it won't break the bank either!
The Nourish Balm is a rich, beauty balm filled with Neroli and Frankincense which is best used as an intense over-night treatment for parched skin. I used this the first time I tried the Cleanse balm and my skin looked plump and refreshed the next morning, not to mention I slept like a baby! The scents of these balms are just divine.
Nourish balm is full of jojoba oil, beeswax, pomegranate oil, rosehip oil and is blended with essential oils of neroli, frankincense, mandarin and lavender...ahhhh heaven!
The Comfort balm isn't one I would purchase as I am lucky that I don't suffer from extremely dry skin or eczema anymore however my Mum has a really bad cold this week and used this to soothe her dry skin round her nose and it worked really well. It has Chamomile and Calendula which are both extremely well-known for their healing properties and also included in the blend are apricot oil, jojoba oil, beeswax, shea butter and avocado which are all really nourishing as well.
Out of the three, my favourite is the Cleanse closely followed by the Nourish balm. I would love to receive this try-me set as a gift and I even think its a great way for you to try the products without splurging on the full-size balms.
Have you tried Balmology? What are your favourites?
*This was given to me in the goody bag from the Green Beauty Meet-Up but as always, I am 100% honest and my opinions are my own.
Cleanse Balm: Simmondsia chinensis (jojoba) oil, Prunus armeniaca (apricot) oil, Ricinus communis (castor) oil, Persea gratissima (avocado) oil, Cera alba (beeswax), Tocopherol, Citrus aurantium var. amara. (neroli), Citrus reticulata (mandarin), Ocimum basilicum (sweet basil). Naturally occurring in essential oils: citral, citronellol, eugenol, farnesol, geraniol, limonene, linalool.
Nourish Balm: Simmondsia chinensis (jojoba) oil, Prunus armeniaca (apricot) oil, Cera alba (beeswax), Macadamia ternifolia (macadamia) oil, Persea gratissima (avocado) oil, Punica granatum (pomegranate) oil, Rosa canina (rosehip) oil, Tocopherol, Citrus aurantium (neroli), Boswellia carterii (frankincense), Citrus reticulata (mandarin), Lavandula angustifolia (lavender). Naturally occurring in essential oils: citral, citronellol, farnesol, geraniol, limonene, linalool.
Comfort Balm: Prunus armeniaca (apricot) oil, Simmondsia chinensis (jojoba) oil, Cera alba (beeswax), Butyrospermum parkii (shea) butter, Persea gratissima (avocado) oil, Rosa canina (rosehip) oil, Tocopherol, Calendula officinalis, simmondsia chinensis (marigold) extract, Matricaria chamomilla, Simmondsia chinensis (chamomile) extract, Helichrysum italicum (immortelle), Lavandula angustifolia (lavender). Naturally occurring in essential oils: benzyl cinnamate, geraniol, limonene, linalool.
I would love to try Balmology! Their products sound lovely and I am always a fan of balms.


Bayards Hill Primary School - Welcome back!
The Councillors begin planning Bayards Got Talent 2018!
This week the Councillors have been enjoying the sunshine, and have come back from the Easter holidays bursting with ideas.
During our meeting, Mr. Eaglestone came to introduce himself and act as a sounding board for our idea for Bayards Got Talent later in the summer term. We are very excited about the event, and are hoping to have lots of children inspired to perform. If you are a keen singer, comedienne, dancer, juggler, or have any other talent that you'd like to share with the Bayards Community, get practising and be ready for when the sign-up sheets come out!

Q: how to implement Z coefficients in C? I have obtained some Z coefficients in MatLAB. Now I need to implement the filter in C.
How do I do this?
The coefficients in Z domain:
num = [0.2557   -0.5115   -0.2557    1.0230   -0.2557   -0.5115    0.2557];
den = [1.0000   -4.0196    6.1894   -4.4532    1.4208   -0.1418    0.0044];
Any help is appreciated.
(I tried googling, but didn't find anything clear and easy to understand.)

A: I'm guessing that the main issue is translating from Z domain to time.
Y(z) = H(z)*X(z)
H(z) = B(z)/A(z) = Y(z)/X(z)
B(z)*X(z) = A(z)*Y(z)
Then from the documentation:
B(z) = b(1)*z^-n + ... + b(n+1)
A(z) = z^-n + ... + a(n+1)
Converting to time domain:
b(1)*x(t) + b(2)*x(t-1) + ... + b(n+1)*x(t-n) = a(1)y(t) + ... + a(n+1)*y(t-n)
Then 'solving' for y(t), given that a(1) is 1:
y(t) = b(1)*x(t) + b(2)*x(t-1) + ... + b(n+1)*x(t-n) - a(2)*y(t-1) ... - a(n+1)*y(t-n)
where n = 7.  So, say you have to arrays in which you store the last 6 values of the input x and the filter output y:
/* Warning Warning Warning:
   This has not been tested,
   for illustration purposes only */
double filter_data(double x)
{
  static double x_prev[6] = {0};
  static double y_prev[6] = {0};
  /* x is newest input value */
  double y;  /* output to be calculated */
  int ii;

  /* let's just keep it really simple for now, you can get more sophisticated later */
  y = 0.2557*x[0] + -0.5115*x_prev[0] + -0.2557*x_prev[1] + 1.0230*x_prev[2] +
      -0.2557*x_prev[3] + -0.5115*x_prev[4] + 0.2557*x_prev[5] - -4.0196*y_prev[0] -
      6.1894*y_prev[1] - -4.4532*y_prev[2] - 1.4208*y_prev[3] - -0.1418*y_prev[4] -
      0.0044*y_prev[5];

  /* really really wasteful, but simple shift of previous values */
  for(ii=5;ii>0;ii--)
  {
    y_prev[ii] = y_prev[ii-1]
    x_prev[ii] = x_prev[ii-1]
  }
  y_prev[0] = y;
  x_prev[0] = x;
  return y;
}

It's not great, but I think that ought to get you going.  Let me know if something isn't clear!


Honhart Mid-Nite Black Co. began business in 1945 as a Division of Atlas Welding Accessories, Inc. in Ferndale, Michigan. We initially concentrated on Black Oxidizing firearms and the hand tools manufactured by Atlas. Management soon realized that there was a broader market for Black Oxide finishing in Southeast Michigan and began offering this service to the general metal working industry.
Honhart Mid-Nite Black Co. was incorporated in 1957. In 1961 the company moved to its current location in Troy, Michigan. This larger facility allowed the company to install extra large processing tanks that increased productivity and decreased turnaround time. We also installed a processing line to Black Oxidize Stainless Steel, a process unique to the company.
Honhart Mid-Nite Black Co. engages exclusively in Black Oxide metal finishing. Consequently, quality of finish, service, prompt delivery and competitive pricing are paramount. We serve a wide variety of customers who manufacture fasteners, stampings, forgings, cutting tools, machine tools, jigs, gauges, fixtures and other products too numerous to name.
