Supply chain data shows Apple sales up 113% in April
Katie Marsal | May 11, 2011
Sales within Apple's overseas supply chain show the iPhone maker continuing its tremendous growth in the month of April, with sales increasing 113 percent year over year.
Sales estimates are determined through the "Apple Barometer" tracked by Ticonderoga Securities, created earlier this year to track monthly sales trends in the Taiwan tech supply chain. Apple's presumed 113 percent year over year growth remains strong, though it is less than the 141 percent that analyst Brian White tracked in March.
The Apple Barometer shows that sales in April over the last six years have, on average, increased 0.4 percent month over month, and in 2010 they rose by 4.4 percent. However, in 2011, sales decreased by 7.5 percent month over month.
The larger-than-average decrease can be attributed to a huge March, where component supplier sales were said to be up 35 percent month over month. That was significantly better than the six-year historical increase of 24 percent month over month in March.
"Therefore, despite a weaker than normal April this year, the Apple Barometer can nearly deliver average sequential sales growth performance in (the second quarter of 2011) versus historical metrics," White wrote in a note to investors on Wednesday.
Apple's outlook for the June quarter, issued in its quarterly earnings report last month, called for a sequential sales decline of 7 percent. That would be much weaker than Apple's eight-year average, over which the company has seen a typical 5 percent sequential increase in the June quarter.
So far in 2011, the Apple Barometer has shown year over year sales increases of 150 percent in January, and 172 percent in February. It tracks sales trends in industries including LCD panel makers, touchscreen providers, and printed circuit board fabricators.
White and Ticonderoga Securities noted that the barometer indicates a trend in sales, but added that there is a "lag" between when suppliers recognize sales and Apple ships a product to its customers. The barometer is portrayed as a "reliable indicator of sales trends," a method more dependable than tracking a single company like Foxconn, which generates 75 percent of its sales from companies other than Apple.
Instead, the proprietary index consists of Taiwan-based suppliers who derive a significant portion of their revenues from Apple, which White estimates contributes between 50 percent and 60 percent of the total revenue generated in the barometer.

April more of a challenge because of strong iPad roll out last April, I suspect.
Where's the love. If Apple keeps it up and the stock lags, there is potential for huge Private Equity takeout once Apple gets $100 Billion in cash.

Ticonderoga has a $612 price target on AAPL yet shares continue to flounder in the 345-350 range. Go figure!
By "up 113%" do they mean they are 113% of last year's values (which is really "up 13%") or 213% of last year's values?

You say "113% of last year's values (which is really "up 13%")" which means you know exactly what up (some percentage means). Go with it.

The United States delivered an additional 820,000 Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine doses to the Ministry of Health, increasing the total U.S. donation to 3.4 million jabs from the American people, the US Embassy in Colombo said.
"The United States supports Sri Lanka's ongoing efforts to vaccinate as many people as possible," said U.S. Chargé d'Affaires Martin Kelly. "Widespread vaccination is vital to ending the pandemic, preventing the emergence of new variants, and rebuilding livelihoods. With the Sri Lankan Ministry of Health, UNICEF, and the World Health Organization, we are doing all that we can to build a world that is safer and more secure against the threat of infectious disease."
To date, the United States has successfully donated and delivered over 300 million COVID-19 vaccines to more than 100 countries, including Sri Lanka. The unprecedented scale, speed, and complexity of this global vaccination effort have provided safe and effective jabs in arms around the world, saving lives and protecting communities. These donations are part of the Biden Administration's global effort to end the COVID-19 pandemic, mitigate its devastating social and economic impacts, and build back a world that is better prepared for future outbreaks.
In Sri Lanka, the United States has worked closely with the government to respond to the pandemic. To date, the U.S. has provided over $17.9 million in emergency supplies and critical services to Sri Lanka. This assistance has reached millions of people in Sri Lanka to control the spread of COVID-19, address urgent health needs, and mitigate the pandemic's negative economic impacts.
The U.S. is committed to supporting global efforts for worldwide immunization against COVID-19 to control the pandemic, slow the emergence of new variants, and keep people safe and healthy. These doses are delivered in coordination with COVAX, in partnership with the Sri Lankan government, to build back a better world.

Liverpool will bankroll Brendan Rodgers after his patience snaps
Liverpool will bankroll Brendan Rodgers' attempts to strengthen his side in January after his patience finally snapped with the under-performing squad he inherited.
Fringe man: Liverpool's Joe Cole failed to take his chance against Swansea City Photo: PA
By Chris Bascombe
11:00PM GMT 01 Nov 2012
The thinness of Rodgers' options were laid bare in the 3-1 defeat to Swansea City in the Capital One Cup, the urgency for reinforcements to relieve the pressure on Luis Suárez, Steven Gerrard and the club's increasingly overburdened youngsters all too clear.
Joe Cole was the most high-profile failure, but there was an equally unfavourable assessment of Stewart Downing and Jordan Henderson - players whose opportunities have been limited since the summer but fell woefully short of making a point to the manager.
Rodgers made reference to the "astronomical" costs of retaining players who are surplus to requirements, his frustration at the lack of strength in depth plain to see.
Although Cole, who is costing Liverpool around £5 million a year for the duration of his four-year deal, is an obvious target, Rodgers would offload all of his costly fringe players in January if he thought there was an interest and he could replace them.
Those players are fully aware they are welcome to talk to other clubs - although attracting any offers that would lure them from their comfortable, lucrative salaries on Merseyside will be as difficult in the New Year as it was last summer.

Left-back Jose Enrique has also failed to impress the manager, only featuring in emergencies, and with Andy Carroll already on loan and Charlie Adam sold, it is a damning indictment on the profligate spending prior to Rodgers' arrival.
Suárez and back-up centre-half Sebastian Coates are the only signings left from the Kenny Dalglish reign who Liverpool are not actively trying to sell.
Liverpool's American owners, Fenway Sports Group, will make money available to reinforce when the transfer window opens, although it is by no means a deep kitty.
Although they failed to back Rodgers in his pursuit of Clint Dempsey on transfer-deadline day in August, they will welcome a list of fresh targets for January which will once more include Arsenal's Theo Walcott, his contract impasse having been monitored closely at Anfield since the summer.
Rodgers could assist his spending powers by reducing his wage bill even further, but he is not working under any guarantee there will any takers for his unwanted, high earning players.
The volume of money wasted at Anfield since their last successful spending splurge in 2007 is horrifying. Five years ago, former manager Rafael Benítez signed Fernando Torres, Javier Mascherano and Martin Skrtel in the same calendar year in what represents the last successful sequence of purchases, but since then - with the exception of Glen Johnson, Suárez and last summer's acquisition of Joe Allen, every major signing has been a failure.
Robbie Keane (£20 million), Alberto Aquilani (£20 million), Downing (£20 million), Henderson (£18 million), Carroll (£35 million), Adam (£9 million) and Enrique (£7 million) form a rogues gallery, evidence of the most wasteful era of spending in Anfield and, perhaps, Premier League history.
Cole, signed on a free transfer in 2010, cannot be excluded from this list given his extortionate wages. The Anfield board know Rodgers is paying the price for this legacy, which is why they have adopted a long-term strategy. The surrendering of their League Cup title is a setback, but the Northern Irishman can expect several transfer windows to assemble his own team.
So far he has only recruited Allen, who has been a success, and Italian striker Fabio Borini - currently injured after a difficult start - for significant fees.
Nuri Sahin is a loanee while teenager Samed Yesil and winger Oussama Assaidi were recruited for a relatively small price, on a completely different wage structure to the levels created by Rodgers' predecessors.
Goalkeeper Brad Jones, meanwhile, is hopeful of maintaining his run in the side to prolong Pepe Reina's absence. The Australian has been in steady form and has won the confidence of Rodgers.
"Everyone wants to play," Jones said. "When I came to Liverpool I knew Pepe had an unbelievable record. He is a difficult guy to get out of the way. We have a good, friendly rivalry.
"For me this run of games has been a good opportunity to play and show I can perform if needed in the first team. Then it's down to the manager to what he sees fit. It's a case of all of us putting pressure on each other.
"I've been fairly happy with how things have gone. I haven't had masses to do but I feel that what I have done has been fairly steady."
Surplus to requirements?
Joe Cole - Signed on a Bosman in the summer of 2010 on a £20 million wage package, he must surely be asking himself if he has the capability to play at the highest level anymore. Even taking account of lack of fitness and game time, his performance against Swansea was disturbingly poor.
Stewart Downing - An England squad regular, his lack of desire and character in a Liverpool jersey was all too apparent in the League Cup defeat. Signed by Kenny Dalglish for £20 million, the frustration is that he has shown isolated very isolated moments of quality. Nowhere near enough to convince The Kop, however.
Jordan Henderson - Has been messed around since his £18 million arrival; first played wide right last season and ending up at full-back on Wednesday, but his purchase for such an extraordinary price remains mystifying. Fulham were given the chance to sign him last summer and he could be a makeweight in future deals.
Jose Enrique - Began well following a £7 million move from Newcastle a year ago, but has since deteriorated rapidly. Now behind teenager Andre Wisdom and the injured Martin Kelly in the pecking order, although Glen Johnson's recent injury won him back his place. His defending has been a constant weakness.

Why are most mass murderers men?
by Kate Kershner
When it comes to U.S. gun violence that kills four or more people in a single incident, males have a lock on it. When you change those violent parameters slightly however, more women begin to enter the picture.
James Holmes picture © POOL/Reuters/Corbis, Andrea Yates picture © Reuters/CORBIS
When we think of "mass murderers" our minds might zip right to a lone person armed with a gun and bent on mass destruction. That's probably because the FBI defines a mass murder as four or more slayings occurring from the same incident. We've also become used to "mass murder" equaling a mass shooting, so we're limiting our definition to fit a more stereotypical male pattern [source: FBI].
Since 1982, there have been 62 mass shootings in America, one of which was carried out by a woman [sources: Follman, Aronsen, Pan]. Jennifer San Marco, who shot a neighbor and six coworkers in 2006, is the only woman who fits that description. It's far too easy to hear a statistic like this and jump to the conclusion that women committing -- or attempting -- mass murder is unheard of.
But by limiting our definition to gun violence that kills four or more people, we're not reporting on some of the story. When we talk about the current spate of mass shooters someone like Andrea Yates (who systematically drowned her five children) isn't included. Or Priscilla Joyce Ford, a delusional schizophrenic who, in 1980, used her vehicle to run over and kill seven people, injuring 22. Or Amy Bishop, a neuroscientist who shot six colleagues in 2006, killing three. Bishop belongs in the same category as Sylvia Seegrist, who shot and killed three people in a mall while injuring seven others: They aren't considered mass murderers because of the number of fatalities, but it can be assumed that they intended to cause larger-scale injury.
So before we delve into why men are most often mass murderers, we should acknowledge that women have engaged in behavior that might not fit our idea of a lone gunman but that does show the capability for aggressive, criminal acts.
Now let's take a look at how gender -- biological and constructed -- might play a role in mass murder specifically.

\section{Introduction}
Bound trajectories in the Kerr geometry have been studied extensively, and some of the important results are discussed in a pioneering work by S. Chandrasekhar (Ref.~\refcite{C1983book}). The general trajectory in the Kerr spacetime was first expressed in terms of quadratures in Ref.~\refcite{Carter1968}, while Ref.~\refcite{Wilkins1972} discusses the essential conditions for bound spherical geodesics, and also horizon-skimming orbits. The quadrature form of the fundamental orbital frequencies for a general eccentric trajectory was first presented in Ref.~\refcite{Schmidt2002}. Later, to decouple the $r$ and $\theta$ motions, a parameter called Mino time, $\lambda$, was introduced in Ref.~\refcite{Mino2003}, which was then implemented to calculate a closed-form trajectory solution and orbital frequencies in Ref.~\refcite{Fujita2009}. Recently, an alternate analytic solution was derived for the general bound and separatrix trajectories in a compact form using the transformation $1/r = \mu \left(1+ e \cos \chi \right)$ in Refs.~(\refcite{RMCQG2019,RM1arxiv2019}). The inputs to these integrals for calculating the trajectories are the constants of motion $E$, $L$, $Q$, and spin of the black hole, $a$. These parameters can also be translated to ($e$, $\mu$, $a$, $Q$) space, as derived in Refs.~(\refcite{RMCQG2019,RM1arxiv2019}). It is essential to find the canonical bound orbit conditions in these two parameter spaces to calculate the trajectory evolution.

We express the bound orbit conditions on ($E$, $L$, $a$, $Q$) parameters for the non-equatorial eccentric bound orbits around a Kerr black hole, and then find the analog of these conditions in the ($e$, $\mu$, $a$, $Q$) space. The regions of different bound orbits were graphically separated in the ($E$, $L$) plane in Ref.~\refcite{Hackmann2010}, according to the pair of roots of the effective potential spanning the radius of the bound orbit. It is essential to find the canonical bound orbit conditions in these two parameter spaces.

\section{Conditions for bound trajectories around Kerr black hole}
 Now, we consider the radial motion of the bound trajectory which is described by the equation (Refs. \refcite{Carter1968,Schmidt2002,RMCQG2019,RM1arxiv2019})
\begin{equation}
\frac{\left( E^2 - 1 \right)}{2}=\frac{ \rho^{4}}{2 r^4}\left( \frac{{\rm d}r}{{\rm d} \tau}\right)^2 -\frac{1}{r}+ \frac{L^2-a^2\left( E^2 -1\right)+Q }{2 r^2}-\frac{\left( L- aE\right)^2 +Q }{r^3}+\frac{a^2 Q}{2r^4}, \label{radialeqn1}
\end{equation}
to derive the conditions in ($E, L, a, Q$) and ($e, \mu, a, Q$) spaces for various bound orbit regions previously discussed in Ref.~\refcite{Hackmann2010}, where $\rho^{2}=r^2 +a^2 \cos^2 \theta$, $\tau$ is the proper time, and $a=J/M^2$ which have their usual meanings; we use geometrical units throughout.

\subsection{\underline{Dynamical parameter space ($E, L, a, Q$)}}
\label{ELaQ}
Next, we solve the quartic equation, Eq. (\ref{radialeqn1}), to find the four roots (that include the turning points of the bound orbit) of ${\rm d}r / {\rm d} \tau=0$, which can be expressed as
 \begin{eqnarray}
r^4 + \dfrac{2}{\left( E^2 -1\right)}r^3 + \dfrac{\left( a^2 E^2 -L^2 -Q -a^2\right)}{\left( E^2 -1\right)}r^2 + \dfrac{2 \left(x^{2}+Q \right)}{\left( E^2 -1\right)}r -\dfrac{a^2 Q}{\left( E^2 -1\right)}=0, \label{quarticr}
\end{eqnarray}
where $x=L-aE$. Applying Ferrari's method (Ref.~\refcite{Ferrari}) to the above equation gives
 \begin{subequations}
 \begin{eqnarray}
 r_{1}=&&\dfrac{1}{2\left(1- E^2 \right)}+\dfrac{\sqrt{2z}}{2}+\dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{D_1}, \label{rt1}\\
  r_{2}=&&\dfrac{1}{2\left( 1-E^2 \right)}+\dfrac{\sqrt{2z}}{2}-\dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{D_1}, \label{rt2}\\
   r_{3}=&&\dfrac{1}{2\left(1- E^2 \right)}-\dfrac{\sqrt{2z}}{2}+\dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{D_2}, \label{rt3} \\
     r_{4}=&&\dfrac{1}{2\left(1- E^2\right)}-\dfrac{\sqrt{2z}}{2}-\dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{D_2}, \label{rt4}
 \end{eqnarray}
 where $r_1 > r_2 > r_3 > r_4$, and
 \begin{eqnarray}
  D_1=&&-2G-2z-\dfrac{\sqrt{2}H}{\sqrt{z}}, \ \  D_2=-2G-2z+\dfrac{\sqrt{2}H}{\sqrt{z}}, \\
   z=&&U+V-\dfrac{G}{3}, \ \ \
 U=\left( I+\sqrt{I^2+J^3} \right) ^{1/3}, \ \ \
  V=\left( I-\sqrt{I^2+J^3} \right) ^{1/3}, \\
  I=&&\dfrac{\left( 2G^3 +27 H^2 -72 G T\right) }{432}, \ \
  J= -\dfrac{\left( G^2 +12 T\right) }{36}, \label{J} \\
   G=&&\dfrac{\left[ L^2 -a^2 \left( E^2 -1\right)+Q \right] }{\left( 1-E^2\right) }-\dfrac{3}{2\left(1- E^2 \right)^2}, \\
     H=&&\dfrac{\left[ L^2-a^2\left( E^2 -1\right)+Q\right] }{\left(1- E^2 \right)^2}-\dfrac{2\left( x^2 +Q \right) }{\left(1- E^2 \right)}-\dfrac{1}{\left(1- E^2 \right)^3}, \\
 T=&&\dfrac{\left[L^2 -a^2 \left( E^2 -1\right)+Q \right] }{4\left(1- E^2 \right)^3}-\dfrac{3}{16\left(1- E^2 \right)^4}-\dfrac{\left( x^2+ Q\right) }{\left( 1-E^2\right)^2}+\dfrac{a^2 Q}{\left( 1-E^2 \right)}.
 \end{eqnarray}
 \label{rootseqns}
 \end{subequations}
 The bound orbit regions were graphically classified in the ($E, L$) plane in Ref.~\refcite{Hackmann2010} on the basis of which pair of roots of quartic equation, Eq. (\ref{quarticr}), contains the bound orbit. We algebraically classify these regions using the expressions of roots, Eqs. (\ref{rt1}-\ref{rt4}), in the ($E, L, a, Q$) parameter space as follows (Ref.~\refcite{RM2019}):
 \begin{enumerate}
 \item \underline{\textbf{Region $\Delta$}}: Bound orbits exist between ($r_1$, $r_2$), and between ($r_3$, $r_4$): $D_1>0$, $D_2>0$, and $E<1$.
 \item \underline{\textbf{Region $\varsigma$}}: Bound orbit either exists between $r_1$ and $r_2$ if ($r_3$, $r_4$) forms a complex pair i.e. $D_2<0$ or exists between $r_3$ and $r_4$ if ($r_1$, $r_2$) forms a complex pair i.e. $D_1<0$: $\left( D_1 \cdot D_2\right)  < 0$. This region exists for both $E < 1$ and $E > 1$.
 \item \underline{\textbf{Region $\Lambda$}}:  Bound orbit exists between $r_2$ and $r_3$ with $r_4<r_3$ and $r_1 > r_2$: $D_1>0$, $D_2>0$, and $E>1$.
 \end{enumerate}
  \begin{figure}[ht!]
\begin{center}
\hspace{0.5cm}
\includegraphics[scale=0.45]{fig1.eps}
\end{center}
\caption{\label{ELplane}The bound orbit regions $\Delta$, $\varsigma$, and $\Lambda$ are shown in the ($E$, $L$) plane for $a=0.5$, $Q=5$, where the region $\Delta$ is bounded by stable and  unstable (also corresponds to the separatrices) spherical orbits, and $E=1$; the $\Lambda$ region is bounded by the inner unstable spherical orbits (IUSO). Points A and B represent the innermost stable spherical orbit (ISSO) and marginally stable spherical orbit (MBSO) respectively.}
\end{figure}
The classification of these regions in the ($E$, $L$) plane is shown in Fig. \ref{ELplane}. The bounding curves of these regions represent spherical orbits. The eccentricity and inverse latus-rectum of the bound orbit are defined as (Ref.~\refcite{RM2019})
 \begin{eqnarray}
 e_{ij}=\dfrac{r_i -r_j}{r_i + r_j}, \ \
 \mu_{ij}=\dfrac{r_i + r_j}{2 r_i r_j}, \label{genmu}
 \end{eqnarray}
 where we see that \{$e_{ij}$, $\mu_{ij}$\} can be expressed in terms of ($E$, $L$, $a$, $Q$) through roots, Eqs. \eqref{rootseqns}. The details of derivations presented here are provided in Ref.~\refcite{RM2019}.

\subsection{\underline{Conic parameter space ($e, \mu, a, Q$)}}
\label{emuaQ}
According to the definitions given for regions $\Delta$, $\varsigma$, and $\Lambda$ in \S \ref{ELaQ}, the convention adopted for \{$e$, $\mu$\} is as follows: Region $\Delta$ given by \{$e_{12}$, $\mu_{12}$\}; Region $\Lambda$ given by \{$e_{23}$, $\mu_{23}$\}; Region $\varsigma$ given by \{$e_{12}$, $\mu_{12}$\} or \{$e_{34}$, $\mu_{34}$\}, depending on which pair is real.
Now, we derive the defining conditions for $\Delta$, $\varsigma$, and $\Lambda$ regions  in the ($e$, $\mu$, $a$, $Q$) space:

(i) \underline{\textbf{Region $\Delta$}}: The defining conditions for this region was derived using the necessary constraints on the parameters of the Elliptic integrals involved in the trajectory solutions (Refs.~\refcite{RMCQG2019,RM1arxiv2019}), which are
\begin{subequations}
\begin{eqnarray}
\left[ \mu^3 a^2 Q \left(1+e \right)^2 +\mu^2 \left( \mu a^2 Q -x^2 -Q\right) \left(3-e \right) \left(1+e \right) +1 \right]  > 0, \label{deltaregiona}\\
\left[ \mu \left( 1+e\right) \left( 1+ \sqrt{1-a^2}\right) \right]  <1, \label{deltaregionb} \\
E(e, \mu, a, Q) < 1. \label{deltaregionc}
\end{eqnarray}
\label{deltaregion}
\end{subequations}
(ii) \underline{\textbf{Region $\varsigma$}}: The region $\varsigma$ is defined by two complex roots of $r$ or $u=1/r$ with a bound orbit existing between the two remaining real roots. We can write Eq. (\ref{quarticr}) for region $\varsigma$ in the form (Ref.~\refcite{RM2019})
\begin{subequations}
\begin{equation}
\left[u - \mu \left(1-e \right)  \right] \cdot \left[u - \mu \left(1+e \right)  \right] \cdot \left(u^2 + Au +B \right)=0, \label{uform}
\end{equation}
where bound orbit exists between $\mu \left(1+e \right)$ and $\mu \left(1-e \right)$ which is a real pair of the roots, and
\begin{equation}
A=- 2\left[ \dfrac{x^2 +Q}{a^2 Q}- \mu \right], \ \ \  B=\dfrac{1-E^2}{\mu^2 a^2 Q \left( 1-e^2\right) }.
\end{equation}
\end{subequations}
Hence, the remaining factor $\left(u^2 + Au +B \right)$ of Eq. (\ref{uform}) should have complex roots for the $\varsigma$ region, which reduces to the condition (Ref.~\refcite{RM2019})
\begin{equation}
 \left\lbrace  \left( Q + x^2 \right)^2 \mu + a^4 e^2 Q^2 \mu^3 - a^2 Q \left[1 + \left( 1+ e^2\right) \left( Q +x^2\right) \mu^2   \right] \right\rbrace <0, \label{boundcondreg5}
\end{equation}
where we have substituted for the factor ($1-E^2$) in terms of ($e$, $\mu$, $x$) using relations previously derived in Refs.~(\refcite{RMCQG2019,RM1arxiv2019}).

(iii) \underline{\textbf{Region $\Lambda$}}: The region $\Lambda$ is defined by the condition that a bound orbit exists between $r_2$ and $r_3$ (or $u_2$ and $u_3$) with $r_1 > r_2$ (or $u_1 < u_2$) and $r_3 > r_4$ (or $u_3 < u_4$). We can express Eq. (\ref{quarticr}) for this region as
\begin{equation}
\left[u - \mu \left(1-e \right)  \right] \cdot \left[u - \mu \left(1+e \right)  \right] \cdot \left(u^2 + Au +B \right)=0. \label{uformlambda}
\end{equation}
The remaining roots $u_1$ and $u_4$ can be derived from the factor $\left(u^2 + Au +B \right)$, which can be substituted into the conditions $u_1 < u_2$ and $u_3 < u_4$ to obtain
\begin{subequations}
\begin{equation}
\left[ \mu^3 a^2 Q \left(1-e \right)^2 +\mu^2 \left( \mu a^2 Q -x^2 -Q\right) \left(3+e \right) \left(1-e \right) +1 \right]  < 0,  \label{boundcondreg41}
\end{equation}
and
\begin{equation}
\left[ \mu^3 a^2 Q \left(1+e \right)^2 +\mu^2 \left( \mu a^2 Q -x^2 -Q\right) \left(3-e \right) \left(1+e \right) +1 \right]  < 0,  \label{boundcondreg42}
\end{equation}
 respectively. Next, as we see from Fig. \ref{ELplane}, that the region $\Lambda$ corresponds to the orbits with $E>1$; this implies
\begin{equation}
\left[ \mu^2 \left( 1-e^2\right) \left( \mu a^2 Q -Q -x^2\right) +1\right] <0. \label{boundcondreg4}
\end{equation}
 \end{subequations}
 In effect, Eqs. (\ref{boundcondreg41}, \ref{boundcondreg42}, \ref{boundcondreg4}) together define $\Lambda$ region the ($e$, $\mu$) plane, and Fig. \ref{emuQ2a2} shows all these regions in the ($e$, $\mu$) plane. The details of derivations of the above conditions are provided in Ref.~\refcite{RM2019}.

 \section{A prescription for selecting bound orbits}
\label{xybound}
We present the scaling formulae specifying the parameters ($E$, $L$) and ($e$, $\mu$) in terms of the variables ($x_{1}$, $y_{1}$) and ($x_{2}$, $y_{2}$), where $x_i$, $y_i\in \left[ 0, 1 \right]$, $i=1, 2$, can be chosen to produce valid combinations of the parameters ($E$, $L$) and ($e$, $\mu$) for bound orbits.
The formula for selecting $E$ for bound orbits written in terms of the variable $x_{1}$, $a$, and $Q$ for region $\Delta$ in Fig. \ref{ELplane} is (Ref.~\refcite{RM2019})
\begin{equation}
E\left(x_{1}, a ,Q\right) =E_{Z}\left(a, Q \right)  + x_{1}\left[E_{Y}\left(a, Q \right)- E_{Z}\left(a, Q \right)\right], \label{Exa}
\end{equation}
where $E_{Z}\left(a, Q \right)$ and $E_{Y}\left(a, Q \right)$ are the spherical orbit energies at ISSO and MBSO respectively, and where $Z(a, Q)$ and $Y(a, Q)$ are radii of ISSO and MBSO respectively (Eqs. (19), (20) in Refs.~\refcite{RMCQG2019,RM1arxiv2019}).

Now, for a fixed $x_{1}$ and $a$, $y_{1} \in \left[ 0, 1 \right]$ defines the range of $L\left( r,a, Q\right)$ for bound orbits. The formula for selecting allowed $L$ ($\Delta$ in Fig. \ref{ELplane}) can be written as (Ref.~\refcite{RM2019})
\begin{subequations}
\begin{equation}
\dfrac{1}{L \left( x_{1}, y_{1}, a, Q \right)}= \dfrac{1}{L_{-}\left( x_{1}, a, Q\right) } - y_{1}\left[\dfrac{1}{L_{-}\left( x_{1}, a, Q\right)}-\dfrac{1}{L_{+}\left( x_{1}, a, Q\right)} \right], \label{Lxya}
\end{equation}
where $L_{+}\left( x_{1}, a, Q\right)$ and $L_{-}\left( x_{1}, a, Q\right)$ are end points of the $\Delta$ region in Fig. \ref{ELplane} given by (Ref.~\refcite{RM2019})
\begin{eqnarray}
L_{+}\left( x_{1}, a, Q\right)&&=x(r_{v}\left(x_{1}, a, Q \right),a,Q)+a \cdot E(r_{v}\left(x_{1}, a, Q \right),a,Q), \label{L+} \\
L_{-}\left( x_{1}, a, Q\right)&&=x(r_{u}\left(x_{1}, a, Q \right),a,Q)+a \cdot E(r_{u}\left(x_{1}, a, Q \right),a,Q), \label{L-}
\end{eqnarray}
\end{subequations}
where $x\left( r_s ,a, Q\right)$ and $E\left( r_s ,a, Q\right)$ can be calculated using the spherical orbit formulae (derived in Refs.~\refcite{RMCQG2019,RM1arxiv2019}) and where $r_{v}\left(x_{1}, a , Q\right)$ and $r_{u}\left(x_{1}, a , Q\right)$ are the two roots of $r_{s}$ in the equation
\begin{eqnarray}
E\left( r_s ,a, Q\right)=E_{Z}\left(a , Q\right)  + x_{1}\left[E_{Y}\left(a , Q\right)- E_{Z}\left(a, Q \right)\right]. \label{rceqn1}
\end{eqnarray}
 The radii $r_{v}\left(x_{1}, a , Q\right)$ and $r_{u}\left(x_{1}, a, Q \right)$ obey $r_{v}\left(x_{1}, a, Q \right)> Z(a, Q)$ and $Y\left( a, Q \right)<r_{u}\left(x_{1}, a, Q \right)< Z\left( a, Q \right)$.

For the $\left( e, \mu \right)$ space, the corresponding formulae for the $\Delta$ region in Fig. \ref{emuQ2a2} are given by
\begin{subequations}
\begin{eqnarray}
e\left(x_{2} \right) =&& x_{2}, \label{ex} \\
\mu\left( y_{2}, r_{x}, a, Q\right)  =&&  y_{2}\cdot \mu_s\left( r_{x}, a, Q\right), \label{muy}
\end{eqnarray}
\end{subequations}
where the allowed range of $\mu$ is $0<\mu<\mu_s\left( r_{x}, a, Q\right)$ for a given $x_{2}$, and $\mu_s\left( r_{x}, a, Q\right)$ is the value of $\mu$ at the separatix [Eq. (25b) in Refs.~(\refcite{RMCQG2019,RM1arxiv2019})], and $r_{x}$ is a root of $r_{s}$ in the equation $x_{2}=e_s\left( r_{s}, a, Q\right)$ and $e_s\left( r_{s}, a, Q\right)$ is the eccentricity value at the separatix [Eq. (25a) in Refs.~(\refcite{RMCQG2019,RM1arxiv2019})]. The radius $r_x$ lies between $Y\left( a, Q \right)$ and $Z\left( a, Q \right)$ for a given $a$ and $Q$. Hence, for a fixed $a$ and $Q$, $ x_{2}$ and $y_{2} \in \left[ 0, 1 \right]$ which thereby defines the range of $\left( e, \mu \right)$.

\section{Summary and discussion}
\label{summary}
We presented the algebraic conditions for non-equatorial bound trajectories in the ($E$, $L$, $a$, $Q$) and ($e$, $\mu$, $a$, $Q$) spaces and showed how these conditions classify the bound orbits into various regions, $\Delta$, $\varsigma$, and $\Lambda$, in the ($E$, $L$) plane, which was previously discussed graphically in Ref.~\refcite{Hackmann2010}; see Fig. \ref{ELplane}. In this article, we have also shown these bound orbit regions in the ($e$, $\mu$) plane, Fig. \ref{emuQ2a2}, geometrically specified by their bound curves and vertices. For astrophysically relevant orbits, only the region $\Delta$ is applicable. We also provided a useful prescription to select the parameters ($E$, $L$) and ($e$, $\mu$) in the $\Delta$ region, which are canonical inputs to the trajectory solutions for studying their evolution in various applications like gravitational wave emission from extreme-mass ratio inspirals, relativistic precession around black holes, and the study of gyroscope precession as a test of general relativity.

Cairo prosecution carried out an investigation into the assault of four journalists who were covering the elections of the Pharmacists Syndicate on Monday.
The four journalists are Atef Abdalaziz Badr, Mohamed Shoukry of Al-Masry Al-Youm, Aya Deabes from El-Youm El-Sabaa newspaper, and Israa Soliman from El-Watan newspaper.
One of the security guards suspected of the assault was arrested after the four journalists recognised him.
"We were doing our job. They assaulted, cursed and insulted us. They did so on the instruction of the head of the Pharmacists' syndicate Mohieddin Obeid. He ordered them on the phone to 'prevent all this interviewing process'," Mohamed Shoukry, one of the victims of the assault, told Daily News Egypt on Tuesday.
Shoukry narrated that the guards attacked them after they began interviewing Karam Kordy, one of the candidates running for the syndicate's presidency.
"We were covering the elections and of course interviewing the candidates. We are not part of any competition or conflict. If they (the current head and council) do not want him to be featured in media, then they could prevent him, not assault us," Shoukry said.
A senior journalist at Al-Masry Al-Youm told DNE that once they learned about the assault, a group of the newspaper's journalists rushed to the syndicate for their colleagues, but also got detained in the syndicate. "They detained us too for two hours," the source said.
The Press Syndicate also denounced the "detaining of 15 journalists" inside the Pharmacists Syndicate , as well as destroying their cameras, and stealing their cell phones.
The Press Syndicate asserted that it will file a lawsuit against Obeid and his council, as well as all those responsible for the assault.


What is the physician's experience?
How many patients like you has the doctor treated?
If the doctor recommends conservative therapy (medication, physical therapy, etc.), how long should you undergo those treatments before trying invasive pain treatments or surgery?
What are the short- and long-term risks of any medication or surgery the doctor prescribes?
How does the physician decide whether to treat you with invasive pain relieving techniques like those listed below?
In what order does he or she use these treatments (if one fails to help you, what will the doctor use next)?
What conditions does the doctor feel are best treated surgically? How does the doctor diagnose these conditions? When does a doctor refer you to another specialist?
If surgery is recommended, do you really need a fusion or can you get by quite well with a simpler operation?
Getting better for a only a few hours, days, weeks or even months from an invasive treatment designed to give long-term help is unacceptable.
What are the long term results of this physician's treatments and how do they compare with results published by other doctors using the same methods in similar patients?
What percentage of patients similar to you were able to decrease their medication usage and increase their functional activity (at work and at home) by at least 50% for at least 18 months, following any course of conservative therapy, invasive pain management techniques, or surgery prescribed by or carried out by the doctor?
Were most patients like you significantly relieved or cured of their pain for years? If not, what became of them?

GCs pen open letter to law firms
By Grace Ormsby|05 February 2019
More than 170 general counsels and chief legal officers have thrown their support behind an open letter to law firm partners pushing for greater diversity in corporate partnerships.
'GCs for Law Firm Diversity' has penned the letter, and said it represents public and private companies, start-ups, and non-profit organisations.
The letter expressed an expectation that "the outside law firms we retain reflect the diversity of the legal community and the companies and the customers we serve".
It applauded firms that have been working hard to hire, retain, and promote to partnership 'outstanding and highly accomplished lawyers' who are diverse in race, colour, age gender, gender orientation, sexual orientation, national origin, religion, and without regard to disabilities.
"We believe that a diverse workplace is evidence that you have created an environment where all employees feel they belong and are accepted," the letter read.
At the same time, GCs for Law Firm Diversity said it is disappointed to see "that many law firms continue to promote partner classes that in no way reflect the demographic of entering associate classes."
"Partnership classes remain largely male and largely white."
"We are left to wonder if you and your partners value diversity enough to put into place programs to develop, promote, and retain talented and diverse attorneys," the letter continued.
"It is not enough to commit your firm to diversity during the recruiting process or to hire a diversity and inclusion officer and expect that person can effect change without the full commitment of each member of the firm," it re-iterated.
"The reality is that you must consciously and personally invest in diversity and inclusion and interview, hire, mentor, support, sponsor, and promote talented attorneys who don't always look like you or share your background."
One of the authors behind the letter, Michelle Fang, Turo's chief legal officer, said the letter brings together general counsels and chief legal officers "to express our desire to see more consistent partnership announcements that reflect the diversity of the legal profession".
"We hope you will join is in a shared and authentic commitment to diversity and inclusion," Ms Fang continued in a LinkedIn post.
Signees to the letter included the general counsel for Mozilla Corporation, Amy Keating, Arcadia Power's SVP and general counsel Kate Henningsen, S&P Global Ratings' chief legal officer Nancy Gardner, TED Conferences' general counsel Nishat Ruiter, Lyft's general counsel Kristin Sverchek, US News & World Report's strategic development vice president and general counsel Peter Dwoskin, Getty Images' general counsel Yoko Miyashita, and the vice president and general counsel of Toshiba America Electronic Components' vice president and general counsel Suzy M. Lee.

Windhoist Limited welcomed a Taiwanese delegation headed by the Vice Minister of the Taiwanese Ministry of Economic Affairs to Irvine on 1st November to explore potential areas of collaboration within the burgeoning Asian offshore wind sector.
With Taiwan recently announcing plans to deploy 5.5GW of offshore wind capacity by 2025, a delegation of business leaders recently visited Scotland in order to learn more about the sector by meeting companies already part of the world-leading European supply chain. The trade mission – organised by Scottish Development International – is the latest in a series of bilateral activities between Taiwan and Scotland aimed at stimulating collaboration within the renewables sector.
The Taiwanese Government has announced an intent to work with established offshore wind suppliers in order that a strong local supply chain can be developed and has stated that in order to achieve this it will proactively seek to invite the most experienced and successful European suppliers to establish a presence in Taiwan.
Following a presentation by the delegation explaining plans for offshore wind in Taiwan, the delegates were shown around the world-class Windhoist Training Centre, taking in a number of live training demonstrations.
Gavin McBride, Windhoist's Project Manager for Asia, commented, "We travelled to Taiwan in September to visit the Port of Taichung (Taiwan's proposed offshore renewables hub) and met a number of agencies and supply chain companies in the region. It is evident that the country is gearing up for this offshore wind deployment bounty and we are very keen to be part of this early journey. Having deployed wind resources in over 20 countries around the globe, we are adept at establishing local presence in high growth international markets and see Taiwan as a key market in the next phase of our international expansion strategy. We are confident that our core competences in turbine construction and installation, heavy lifting, engineering and industry-leading training will serve us well in this developing market".
With over 400 technicians employed, the Windhoist Group has operating presence in Scotland (Irvine and Stirling), Ireland, Australia, Germany, South Africa and Morocco. The company has successfully deployed its technical wind resources in over 18 countries globally – installing more than 6,200 turbines (11GW+) – and maintains one of the most comprehensive heavy lift fleets available on the market. The company successfully diversified from onshore to offshore wind with the recent award of turbine construction contracts for the 558MW Beatrice project (Scotland's maiden commercial-scale wind farm) and the 1218MW Hornsea One project (currently the world's largest offshore wind farm) from Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy.


Did you know that up to 90% of the visible changes commonly attributed to aging are caused by the sun? The following are some proactive ways you can enjoy being outside and still feel like you are protecting your skin!
Most dermatologists recommend a sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or greater. It is important to reapply every 3 to 4 hours and more often if you are in and out of the water, toweling off & sweating! Remember, sunscreens are not water-proof. They may be water resistant and may last up to 40 minutes in water. Very water resistant may last up to 80 minutes in water. It is important to wear sunscreen even on a cloudy day, as only 20% of ultraviolet rays are blocked by clouds.
Our products utilize three types of ingredients to provide effective UV protection.
Some sunscreens may also have anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatory ingredients in them to help treat sun damage.
Here at The Center for Dermatology Care, we want you to enjoy the outdoors in a way that protects your skin. We offer a variety of sunscreens to fit the needs of our patients. Debbie, our esthetician is a great resource for answering your sunscreen questions and needs.
Give us a call at (805) 497-1694 to find out which sunscreen is best for you!


Bermuda-Dunes is a small community located in Riverside County about 23 miles east of Palm Springs in southern California. As of the 2000 census, the population of Bermuda Dunes was 6,229 residents. The community originated from the country club that first opened here in 1959. A golf course community followed in 1962 and was the site of the Bob Hope Chrysler Golf Classic. Bermuda Dunes is part of Riverside County, which stretches from Orange County on the west coast, east to the Colorado River, which borders the state of Arizona. The area surrounding Bermuda Dunes is desert and most of Joshua Tree National Park is located in Riverside County. Several golf resorts are nearby, including Indian Wells, Palm Springs, La Quinta, Rancho Mirage and Palm Desert. With both desert and mountains, Riverside County offers a wide variety of activities and special events, including the International Date Festival. There are also many museums near Bermuda Dunes, such as the Childrens Discovery Museum of the Desert, the Orange Empire Railway Museum and the California Museum of Photography.

Mac Dynasty in Lang Son
The Fortress of the Mac Dynasty is located in Tam Thanh district of Lang Son Province. This used to be one of the most important military constructions in the feudal period of Vietnam history. Nowadays, it is ranked as a national site and is being renovated to welcome tourists from all over the country.
The most prominent part of this site is two long stone walls running between the cliffs ofmountains. According to many researches of historians, the walls that we see nowadays are the vestiges of a vital military center standing between the northern part and the southern part of the country. It was erected by Mac Kinh Cung in the beginning of the 16th century to handle the Le-Trinh dynasty which was always in an opposing position against the Mac Dynasty. Even though the scope of the fortress is not so great, it is still an evidence of a tumulus time in the history of the country during which the "brothers in a family" fought against each other.
Standing on the peak of the fortress which lies between two spectacular cliffs, you can spread your view all over a natural, untouched yet mysterious area. You can also notice from the high walls many dangerous spike traps surrounding the fortress. All of these elements of the fortress enabled the Mac Dynasty to rule and keep the border safe for nearly one century.

Have you had a chance to enjoy any of the deuces wild casino games? They can be found in many of the best online casinos, but they are also incredibly popular at the "brick and mortar" establishments too.
What are the deuces wild casino games? They are electronic games that are played by a single player, but which utilize some of the features of standard poker. For example, the game will pay out prizes based on hands containing some of the most common combinations to a poker game as well. Consider that the Royal Flush is often the highest paying prize, although the receipt of all four "deuces" might be even more rewarding.
It is the four deuces that really make the deuces wild casino games so dramatically different from classic poker. This is because all four of the cards are actually "wild" cards that can be used to complete a winning combination. This applies to the creation of a "five of a kind" hand as well!
When looking for these casino games, however, you may want to know that they can be found in a couple of formats that include the regular video games and also in the form of a slot machine too. The slot machines are actually not that different from the video formats, and usually the only variation is how the paytable is displayed and how wagers might be placed.
For example, some of the games have the availability of only a few "coins" wagered on any hand, while some of the slots games will allow the player to put one or more coins on every hand instead. These coins might also have very flexible values that can make winning combinations remarkably rewarding.
The deuces wild games are extremely simple to play, virtually stress free, and allow someone to enjoy a new alternative to a classic game.
Deuces Wild video poker is available in all online casinos so you can just pick one and start playing. Deuces wild casino is definitely not hard to find.


What does the Mexican government do with child illegal aliens? According to a report in Mexico's El Universal, in 2013 there were 9,893 illegal alien minors detained in Mexico. Of that total, 8,350 (84% of the total) were deported while only 50 were granted official refugee status. The remainder, numbering 1,493 were neither deported nor given refugee status, but apparently allowed to join family members (of varying legal statuses) who were already in the country of Mexico.
I'm guessing too, that there were more than 9,893 passing through, but that's the quantity that was caught and officially registered.

Douglas Detweiler
On Nov. 21 Rotarians will celebrate the life of our beloved Past President Doug Detweiler at a Memorial Service at Trinitarian Congregational Church, 54 Walden Street in Concord. Doug's obituary is below. You may leave a remembrance on our Facebook page or on the Dee Funeral Home page.
Douglas (Doug) James Detweiler, 79, passed away Tuesday, November 12, 2019. He was the beloved husband of Ingrid Detweiler with whom he shared 51 years of marriage. He was a loving father to Karena Detweiler of Munich, Germany and Sean Detweiler of Concord married to Kristi, and a dedicated Opa to Carson and Alexa.
Born in Lansing, Michigan on June 7, 1940, he was the son of James and Dorothy Detweiler. Doug grew up in Burbank, California, and graduated from the University of Redlands before moving east to attend the Harvard Business School.
He was inspired to live the Rotary motto of "Service Above Self," truly believing in the importance of contributing to society, especially in a time where the "self" is too often promoted over the community.
Before moving to Concord and Acton, the family lived in Holden, MA where Doug was elected Town Moderator for 11 years and also served on the Zoning Board of Appeals. In the spirit of Rotary "Service Above Self" and "One Profits Most Who Serves Best", Doug served on many boards including: Blue Cross Blue Shield as a Director, the Leominster Hospital Board of Trustees where he served as Chairman from 1988-1990, and the North Central MA Chamber of Commerce Board.
In Concord, his service focused first on Rotary International. He was an active member of the Rotary Club of Concord, serving as president from 2009-2010 and went on to become Rotary District Governor for District 7910 in 2013-2014. His passion for Rotary was shared by his family who attended many events with him, including marching in the Concord Patriot's Day Parade with his grandchildren who are members of the Rotary Interact Club at Concord-Carlisle High School.
Additionally, he was committed to the work of Clarendon Early Education Services, Inc., an organization dedicated to providing quality, affordable childcare and small business opportunities for childcare professionals. He was the current President of the Board.
His strong intellectual curiosity also led to a part-time job at the Concord Free Public Library where he cherished the opportunity to discover scores of books to read on a diverse range of topics and to engage with the librarians there who shared his love of knowledge.
This insatiable desire to learn also drove him to achieve many different goals over his lifetime. He owned and managed several businesses, including Lockwood Products in Leominster, MA, and served as an economic development director for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. He was always an early adopter of the latest technology. An avid boater—sailing and motor boats—for a time he also flew his own airplane as a private pilot. In retirement he enjoyed walking—including hikes to the bottom of the Grand Canyon—woodworking, traveling—especially to Germany to visit his daughter, as well as visiting National Parks—cheering on his grandchildren at sporting events, and most of all being together with family. Doug's kindness, positive outlook and friendly demeanor will be remembered by all who knew him.
In addition to members of his own family, he is survived by his brother Richard (Rick) Detweiler and his wife Carol of Ann Arbor, MI and was predeceased by his sister Jeanette (Detweiler) Larson. Her husband, William Larson, was a college roommate who eventually became a cherished brother-in-law. He was close to all his nieces and nephews and enjoyed the times spent together.
Family and friends are invited to a celebration of Doug's life at a memorial service on Thursday, November 21, 2019, at 2:00 pm in the Trinitarian Congregational Church, 54 Walden St., Concord, MA. A reception will immediately follow in the church parish hall. Private burial with military honors will precede the service at Sleepy Hollow Cemetery in Concord.
The Concord Town Flag will fly at half-staff on Thursday, November 21st in recognition of Doug's honorable service to our country in the U. S. Marine Corps.
In lieu of flowers, contributions in his memory may be made to the Concord Rotary Charitable Endowment, 801 Main St., Concord, MA 01742.
Arrangements are under the care of Dee Funeral Home & Cremation Service of Concord.

Clarence John Laughlin (American, 1905-1985), The Bat, 1940, gelatin silver print. High Museum of Art, Atlanta, gift of Lucinda W. Bunnen for the Bunnen Collection, 1981.93.
"There is no exquisite beauty...without some strangeness in the proportion."
That's a line from Edgar Allan Poe, the king of the dark and eerie, the strange and surreal. It could also describe the appeal of an exhibition currently on view at the High Museum of Art, called "Strange Light: The Photography of Clarence John Laughlin."
Laughlin has been called "Edgar Allan Poe with a camera." He was a Louisiana native and Southern photographer known as the "Father of American Surrealism." A fascinating and irascible character, Laughlin broke boundaries with photographic innovations that linked imagery to the subconscious.
On Second Thought host Virginia Prescott speaks with Gregory Harris and John Lawrence.
John Lawrence is director of museum programs for The Historic New Orleans Collection, which holds Laughlin's archives and master prints. He joined On Second Thought to talk about the life, work and vision of the "phantasmagorical" photographer.
Gregory Harris, associate curator of photography for the High Museum of Art, also joined the conversation.
The exhibit will be on view at the High Museum through Nov. 10.

Increasing the age limit from 30 years to 35 years for Canadian Working Holiday visa holders!
Australian Chamber-Tourism has announced today that Canadians up to the age of 35 years are eligible to apply for Australian working holidaymaker visas, from November 1, 2018.
Canada was among the first countries along with the UK and Ireland in 1975 to enter into a working holiday maker visa arrangement with Australia.
"The Working Holiday Maker Visa Program facilitates cultural exchange between Australia and partner countries and is important to the leisure tourism market, and the short-term labour force needs in some regions." Australian Chamber-Tourism Executive Chair, John Hart said.
However, currently, there are fewer working holidaymakers from these countries travel to Australia and the demography of working holidaymakers has changes, the increase of age eligibility is a welcome step to Canadian market and the Department also hope to negotiate with other partner countries.

Vassar's First Computer
On January 11th, 1967, Vassar's first computer, an IBM Systems/360 Model 30 E, was delivered, to be installed in the new Computer Center in the Old Laundry Building. With this acquisition, Vassar put itself ahead in higher education's quickening technology race. While several universities in the United States housed computers, Vassar was the first women's college and the second liberal arts college to have its own computer on campus. Computing technology was advancing and spreading at a very fast rate, but in 1967 only about 20,000 IBM 360s—arguably the most advanced commercially available computer—were in operation. Vassar was also an anomaly in the level of access to computers it gave to undergraduate students—more so, perhaps, because it was a women's college. The person credited with bringing the IBM 360 to Vassar is Professor of Mathematics Winifred "Tim" Asprey. A native of Iowa and a third-generation Vassar alumna—her grandmother was in the Class of 1882 and her mother in 1905—she graduated from Vassar in 1938. Completing her PhD in mathematics at the University of Iowa in 1945, she returned to Vassar as an assistant professor in the mathematics department.
Tim Asprey's interest in computers was spurred by the work of her mentor, favorite professor during her student days and friend, Grace Murray Hopper '28. Like Asprey, Hopper had returned to Vassar, in 1931, after graduate study to teach in the mathematics department. Taking a leave of absence from the college in 1943, Hopper joined the United States Navy Reserve and, maintaining her Navy status, she eventually became a senior mathematician at the Remington Rand Corporation. A leader in the emerging field of computer science, she is best remembered for her work in developing the COBOL programming language. She also worked on Rand's UNIVAC "thinking machine" and during that time invited Asprey to see the innovative device. The chair of the mathematics department at this point, Asprey soon developed a life-long enthusiasm for and fascination with computers. Determined to learn more about these machines, she came to know a number of scientists and engineers at IBM's laboratory and manufacturing facilities in Poughkeepsie.

These relationships eventually led to her taking a year off from teaching to spend the 1957-58 school year studying at IBM's research laboratory. Her enthusiasm for computers in general and her interest in IBM's developing program forged an important bond between the company and the college. Returning to her teaching, Asprey offered an advanced level mathematics course on digital computing with the somewhat daunting prerequisite or corequisite of calculus but access donated by IBM for students in the course to use the model 7040 at its Education Building.
Bringing a computer onto campus in 1967 was the next step in the efforts Asprey had engaged in on behalf of Vassar and its students. While the installation of the 360 was probably the inevitable culmination of this relationship, years before it had even been thought of advanced mathematics students at Vassar were visiting IBM and using its machines. And in 1966, Vassar's grant application to the National Science Foundation for its computer center was—along with two others from Brown University, for biology, and UCLA, for chemistry—awarded the maximum allowable grant, $50,000. On September 29, 1967, after several months of installation in the new computer center, President Alan Simpson, as he put it, "baptized" Vassar's IBM Systems/360 Model 30 E computer in a ceremony in Taylor Hall. Dr. Herman Goldstine, a pioneer in the development of digital computing and the founding director of IBM's Watson Research Center, attended the event, where Tim Asprey introduced the keynote speaker, her mentor and friend Commander Grace Murray Hopper, who spoke on "Computers and Your Future."
Commander Hopper, Dr. Goldstine and a student
"Mrs. Hopper," Susan Frelich '70 wrote in the Miscellany News, "reminded her listeners that although computers are undoubtedly here to stay, if they become frightened of the power of the machine, they could 'always pull the plug'.... At this point in its history the computer is a tool for all disciplines, but, as Mrs. Hopper warned the audience, 'Don't forget it is second to the library.'"
Not everyone at Vassar was as eager as Ms. Asprey to associate with IBM and their computers. On September 21, 1966, following the announcement of the purchase of the computer, the Miscellany News reported "cries from humanities students who felt their departments would suffer." In 1969, Ted Lieverman '71 wrote an op-ed piece decrying "IBM intrusion onto campus", referring to the college as the "Vassar Institute of Technology" and calling for rejection of talk of a potential graduate school in technology and for an end to ongoing consultations with IBM staff. These sentiments had been parodied earlier in the 1964 April Fool's edition of the Misc. In "Vassar Protests the IBM Way" a fictional protest was described in which 900 Vassar students—"escorted by a vanguard of 50 bicycles decorated in pink and grey crepe paper"—marched on IBM headquarters, carrying signs bearing slogans such as "A world free from automation is a world full of love" and "Down with seven-digit telephone dials".... Melanie Oldlife '65, organizer of the march, stated, 'The aim of this protest is to stop the insidious corruption of Vassar by IBM computers and to insure that we will not all be reduced to digits...'" The mock-protest "quickly ended," according to the Misc., when a group of IBM representatives offered the protestors lemonade and cookies and invited them to a dance that evening at the IBM Country Club. But the actual reception of computing on campus was not at all so simply accomplished.
Unease about computers and criticism of IBM sharpened and grew more militant as organized movements against the Vietnam War took hold on college campuses throughout the country. On April 9, 1972, 60 Vassar students went to IBM's headquarters with the intention of drawing attention to the use of IBM machines in the war and to the defense contracts filled by the company. Fourteen students were arrested as they started setting up on IBM property for the planned week-long protest. One of those arrested, Steve Peters '74, explained the group's intentions to "confront IBM and the Poughkeepsie community with their complicity in the Indo-China War" in the Miscellany News. Protests like these continued during the ensuing years, first against IBM's role in the Vietnam War, then against its engagement with the apartheid government of South Africa.
Whatever Winifred Asprey's opinion about these more overtly political protests of the seventies and eighties, she clearly understood the sentiment on campus that led to such resistance, and she acted to address it. At convocation in May of 1966, in preparation for the arrival of the 360, she gave a talk called 'Computers—Plus or Minus?" in which she advocated for acceptance of computers and their ability to "free man from mental drudgery." The speech was particularly geared towards students of the humanities, who she believed would need more convincing than those interested in the natural or social sciences. Pointing out that computers had already proven themselves useful in certain areas of the humanities, she cited a computer program that helped determine the authorship of a piece of writing based on the distribution and frequency of certain words.
Asprey delivered this talk again during freshman orientation the following semester, and then expanded on many of the same points in a piece for the April 1967 edition of the Vassar Alumnae Magazine, "Vassar's Newest Jewel: the 360." She cited the mixed reactions on campus to the appearance of the computer, noting that for the "head-shaking group…the word computer connoted automation with subsequent loss of individualization. They were concerned, and rightly so, with the impact of the computer on the character of the College." After a lucid and detailed description of digital computing, she urged the head-shakers to consider the advantages that computing could provide to academic fields across the board.
This was the essential pattern of what Asprey did during the period surrounding the 360's installation. In the fall semester of 1966, she offered short "computer appreciation" seminars for faculty and administrators which involved guest speakers and trips to IBM. Following the arrival of the 360, she encouraged her students to create similar seminars for other students and arranged for non-credit courses on FORTRAN programming to be offered. In these efforts, she was helped greatly by the relationships she had created at IBM; Vassar was granted permission to replicate large parts of IBM manuals to aid students interested in programming.
Winifred Asprey at the door of the new Computer Center
Asprey's efforts paid off. Following her article in the April edition of the Quarterly, numerous testimonies from faculty and students about the usefulness of the 360 and the kinds of projects they had already used it for began to appear. Faculty from the physics, music, psychology and chemistry departments all weighed in on the value of computers to their respective fields and on the broader impact computing was likely to have at the college. A number of students also wrote short pieces detailing the kinds of work they had done with the 360 in the three months since its installation, which ranged from game theory to linear algebra and quantum chemistry.
Anne Lounsbury '67, a mathematics major and one of the students who became involved with the 360 during its first semester, founded and served as president of a Vassar chapter of the Association for Computing Machinery, the first at a women's college. She worked as an intern for the Computer Center, helping to teach sections of an extracurricular "Introduction to the Computer" course for interested students with little or no knowledge of mathematics or computer programming. As to the new 360, she wrote, "Certainly the presence of the computer has greatly affected students at Vassar. Hopefully in a few more years most of the undergraduates will have had some contact with it and the Vassar student chapter of the ACM will become a flourishing one."
While many of the first to use the 360 were math majors or students in the "hard sciences" like physics and chemistry, some from majors less commonly linked to computer science also found uses for the new machine. Edwina Marie Ames '67, a psychology major, wrote:
"The Vassar computer will be useful to me in two ways. First, I will be able to gain enough experience in computer techniques so that this step will be minimal or unnecessary in graduate school. Second, I hope to write the programs for basic statistical models which I will be using next year and thereafter. Hopefully, computer models of mental illnesses can be set up against which various biochemical and therapeutic techniques can be tested in order to predict experimental results."
"Although it is too early," Winifred Asprey wrote in April 1967, "to assess the impact that the 360 will have on the Vassar campus, widespread curiousity already exists." She went on to describe the computer-appreciation courses being offered to "non-scientific faculty and administration members (shades of Art 105 and Music 140)." The disciplines "represented arts, classics, English, foreign languages, history, library, music, philosophy," she reported. It would be 15 years before the college adopted an "authorized" microcomputer—the ill-fated DEC Rainbow—and several mainframe computers have followed the IBM System 360. It may still be too early to know where what that machine started will lead. What's certain is that it and its spirited advocate initiated an essential new element in the life of the college, one that has touched the lives and curiosities of us all.
