I'm so happy. So very happy. I think my chest will explode.
It's impossible not to feel both wistful and proud when I hear my Emie regale tales of her day. It's another opportunity to remember that indeed she is becoming her very own person. Last night we went out to dinner and had such a fun time. Ainsley wanted to sit outside for a bit so after Dirk was finished he took her to an outdoor table. Note that we were at Freebirds World Burrito so it's not as though we messed up the universe of any reservation schedule. The menu's on a chalkboard.
When it was just me and Emie at the table, I asked her about her day. About recess and lunch. The two places where it all happens when you're seven. I asked her if she had a chance to be a friend to someone. Someone who needed a friend. I hope I'll always remember what her face looked like before she even started to tell me about it. How her eyes lit up and her dimples plunged, it was as though someone had just plugged in a thousand Christmas lights in a dark room. That.little.face.
She shared with me that her friend Jay was a bit sad on the bus ride home. She told him a made up a story about him, their mutual friend on the bus, and herself. One which had them all laughing hysterically before the end. My firstborn experienced something sacred today. To feel the unsurpassed joy of bringing someone else a smile when they just can't muster one themselves. To make someone laugh when they have already realized that life really isn't very funny. I know she's done this before. She's been spreading the joy around like so much glitter since she was a babe - but for her to get how amazing that feels - Well that's the stuff of glory.
I reached across the table and held her squarely on the shoulders and said "Do you have any earthly idea how amazing you are? How crazy beautiful and amazing you are? You?" Or as much as I could before she recanted, "Mom" in the way that has four syllables. I wanted to stop time and record every sparkle in her eye. Every long eyelash. How her lips were red as cherries. She's growing up so fast. The other day on the way to church she was talking (with great knowledge) about the Revolutionary war. She later explained to her sister (who had asked) what formal attire was. How does she know all of these things already when she was just crawling a few minutes ago? The years go by so very, very fast.
Oh, this job is so hard sometimes. It takes everything I have some days to hold it together as a mom when it's all about pouring myself out and into the lives of the little lovies. The Lord refills me readily but there are days when I'm weary. But yesterday, well it was different. I was on top of the world. I got one of those this is why I'm doing what I'm doing moments. It is a privilege denied to many to get to pour into a real life. An individual sparkly, gorgeous, unique, not-my-own life.
Lord Grantham's words sum it up so very well. "I'm so happy. So very happy. I think my chest will explode."
I just came across this picture. Though taken two and a half years ago it is vintage Ainsley and me. I mean seriously people, who needs cable? She's flying through the air and I want a nap. Not a lot has changed since then and then again everything has.
Spring Break is nearly over. Can I get an amen? It actually has been great to have the girls to myself and not have to wake them for anything. We found plenty to do with our time. We baked a half batch of chocolate chip cookies yesterday because that's how much the family flour supply would allow. But it seemed plenty.
Our aim was to bring a plate of them to some new neighbors we saw move in a few weeks ago. They're at the other end of our street and on one of our trips past we thought we scoped out some little girls on their upper front porch. PFs (potential friends) bring out the Betty Crocker in all of us. Once we had our plate all set and our card ready to roll we walked on over. Yep, you guessed it. No one was home. Hadn't factored in that possibility. And since it's Spring Break we didn't opt to leave them on the doorstep in fear that we'd only attract the local raccoon family to their door and that just doesn't seem too neighborly.
Back home we went, cookies in hand. It wasn't long before we all started to look pretty longingly at the plate. I mean, they weren't home and would they ever know if we just took a couple off of the plate before bringing them down the next day? So we started in and well, it's going to take a lot of convincing for me to feel brave enough to bring what is now a plate of only three cookies from our motley Welcome Wagon.
So Glad You're Here and Good Night
It feels weird not to have written in such a while. I'd gotten into such a comfortable habit of cranking out posts every couple of days. But we've had company here for a full week so that just changes things. And it was the in-laws. And though I actually really like them - a novel concept and a rare gift I'm sure - it's still just different when you have extras in the house. Different in a good way. Like different as in I cooked real meals! I should back up to say that not only did I cook real meals, I planned for real meals like I'd never done before. I made lists, shopped, chopped and prepared to make Ina Garten blush. I held my own and it turns out it wasn't that painful and it saved a ton of hassle.
I had so many provisions around that it appeared my aim was to put everyone in a food coma. Part of a plot to sneak in a much needed nap. But the coma really wasn't necessary since my house guests were big nappers. Huge nappers. Like marathon nappers. Did I mention they like to take naps? Green with envy I am, that's all. But they're good at it. In fairness I should note that this is only because they really sleep poorly at night. Like they don't sleep at night much at all kind of poorly. It's a bit like having owls as house guests. Here's an example of their prowess for napping: Dirk was outside chatting in the afternoon with his dad a few times when he would notice him drift off to sleep mid-sentence only to wake up and pick up exactly where he left off in his conversation with Dirk. This is brilliant stuff here. Mad skills that would be wonderfully helpful during a boring meeting. Take a little snooze and then wake right up and say, "As I was saying..." and just never miss a beat. They're something these in-laws. In truth they lead really full and productive lives in their golden years. My mother-in-law's schedule makes me tired. She's on several boards, does all of the book keeping for her church's child care center, bakes from scratch, quilts, and keeps up with a wide circle of friends. About that nap...
We did wake them up long enough to show them the Alamo, the Riverwalk, a few authentic BBQ/honky-tonk type of joints and other Texas fare, Dirk's office (a mom likes to see these things), our church, and Emie's beloved Orange Leaf. They said they had a good time and we believe them. If getting away is about getting some rest and relaxation--well, mission accomplished indeed! Unfortunately we hosts still had the little people here wanting to try out their new in-line skates, and shoot hoops with their new basketball. So, no rest for the parentals. But we were really, really glad for their company. The in-laws and the little people for that matter.
It was just a treat to be with people with whom we have shared history. Others who know our stories and our people. We got to hear about family members and how they're all doing and also about new subjects such as the perils of cutlery in restaurants these days. Have you noticed that forks are not sharp enough to use in most eating establishments? Neither had I but if you ask my mother-in-law, she would tell you this is a big problem today. The forks out there aren't sharp enough to pierce the food on your plate. Makes you wonder if perhaps a lack of meat tenderizer is the true culprit but that's fodder for another visit. We'll be visiting them in June so we'll have something else to talk about.
The girls are on Spring Break this week and Dirk's heading out of town for work. Cleverly timed, husband, cleverly timed indeed. In any case, I don't imagine I'll have time for lots of posts but life's full of surprises.
I'm so happy. So very happy. I think my chest will...
I just came across this picture. Though taken two ...

Home PC UDIMM Vs. SODIMM: What Is the Difference?
UDIMM Vs. SODIMM: What Is the Difference?
Gaurav Pal
Brief Outline Computer memory types are referred to by the term's dual inline memory module and unbuffered dual inline memory module. While most memory modules fall under the general category of UDIMM, notebook computers almost exclusively use SO-DIMM modules.
Identification to UDIMM
Identification to SO-DIMM
UDIMM Vs. SODIMM
What is UDIMM?
What is SODIMM?
Where is SODIMM Used?
Bandwidth and Latency:
A buffered memory module uses a microprocessor to pass data before it enters or exits the module's memory chips. As a result, a computer can install multiple memory modules without overloading the motherboard's memory controller and resulting in system instability. Buffered memory is necessary for many computers with more than four memory slots. Since most desktop and notebook computers only have four memory slots available, buffered memory is unnecessary. As a result, UDIMMs are present in the majority of computers.
Full-sized memory modules are challenging to fit in a notebook and small-form-factor desktop computers due to a lack of available space. These computers use memory modules with more compact circuit boards as a result. Small computers now have memory capacities similar to those of larger computers thanks to SO-DIMMs.
A SO-DIMM or a full-sized DIMM can both be unbuffered DIMMs. All SO-DIMMs are UDIMMs because only workstation and server computers require buffered memory. Furthermore, the majority of full-sized DIMMs are UDIMMs. The microprocessor in the middle of buffered memory modules is absent from UDIMMs.
The size of a SO-DIMM, which is slightly longer than 2.5 inches compared to a standard DIMM's somewhat over five inches, is the primary way to recognize one as a SO-DIMM. There are 204 pins on a DDR3-SDRAM SO-DIMM and 240 pins on a DDR3-SDRAM DIMM.
Small computer expansion cards called SODIMMs (Small-Outline Dual Inline Memory Modules) are used for RAM. It is a scaled-down DIMM frequently found in laptops, all-in-one computers, and other small form factor PCs. The type of RAM it carries will determine the pinout, but most modern SODIMMs have 288 pins.
Here is an example of a DDR3 SODIMM:
Unbuffered Dual Inline Memory Module, or UDIMM as it is more commonly known, is a volatile memory chip used primarily in desktop and laptop computers. It is a typical form of RAM. A class of UDIMM is contemporary DDR memory chips.
UDIMM typically performs better than RDIMM (registered dual inline memory module) in systems with only one or two modules per memory channel. However, RDIMM can boost performance and lower latency in computers that use three or more modules per channel, like high-end workstations and servers.
Small Outline Dual In-line Memory Module is referred to as SODIMM. SODIMMs are smaller than DIMMs, as you might guess from the name. The JEDEC specifications state that SODIMMs must be 3.8mm thick and 30mm high. The width of SDR, DDR, DDR2, and DDR3 SODIMMs was 67.6mm. SODIMMs for DDR4 and DDR5 was 2mm wider, measuring 69.6mm. The other measurements are comparable to PC DIMMS, which have a 133mm width, nearly twice as wide.
No generation of SODIMM form factored RAM is compatible, just like the DIMM form factor. This is so because their form factor is the only real distinction between DIMM and SODIMM. Beyond the smaller form factor's increased thermal restrictions and physical capacity limits, there are no performance effects.
Each generation of SODIMM RAM uses a unique cut-out "key" to maintain the generational distinction and prevent hardware damage brought on by the variations in voltage requirements between ages. DDR and DDR2 SODIMM memory shared a similar key position. They are making it difficult to distinguish between them without direct side-by-side comparisons. Key locations on older SODIMM RAM generations are more distinct.
Similar to desktop DIMMs, SODIMMs have grown in pin count over time. DDR and DDR2 SODIMMs used 200 pins, while SDR SODIMMs had 144 pins. The pin count increased from 204 in DDR3 to 260 in DDR4 and 262 in DDR5. This further ensures electrical incompatibility among SODIMM memory generations.
The SODIMM form factor is perfect for use in computers with minimal space due to its small volume. As you may have inferred from the introduction, SODIMMs are primarily utilized in laptops. However, not all laptops use SODIMM memory. As convenient as it may be for users who desire the capability of future RAM upgrades. Compared to simply soldering the RAM chips directly to the motherboard, it is a little more difficult and expensive to implement. Comparable to what you might see on a smartphone.
Some small form factor motherboards may use SODIMM slots rather than full DIMMs. In addition, a SODIMM slot rather than a full-sized DIMM slot is part of the Nano-ITX motherboard standard. SODIMM slots may also be used by some routers, NASs, and upgradeable office printers. The alternative to using full-sized DIMMs would be to solder the memory chips directly to the motherboard.
Capacity Issue: The main problem with SODIMMs historically has been that they have less physical capacity than full-sized DIMMs. It is obvious that as memory density has risen, single DIMM and SODIMM memory capacities have as well. Due to the extreme lack of space, the available accommodations in SODIMM form factors have typically been about half that of full-sized DIMMs.
In terms of latency and bandwidth, UDIMMs excel. But when multiple DIMMs are installed in a memory channel, a completely different scenario emerges, causing the clock cycle for UDIMMs to change due to heavy electrical loading on the address and control lines. Higher latency and lower bandwidth than RDIMMs result from a single clock cycle being doubled to account for settling time.
Therefore, when there is more than one DIMM per memory channel, RDIMM's superior performance is revealed, delivering an 8.7% faster data transfer rate than UDIMMs for two DIMMs per channel.
Most desktop and laptop computers use volatile memory chips called UDIMMs (Unbuffered DIMMs). It is a typical form of RAM. A class of UDIMM is contemporary DDR memory chips.
Brief Outline Computer memory types are referred to by the term's dual inline memory module and unbuffered dual inline memory module. While SO-DIMM modules are almost exclusively used in notebook computers, UDIMM is a general term that applies to most memory modules.

Iran Air Flight 277 was a passenger flight which crashed near Urmia Airport, West Azerbaijan Province, Iran, on January 9, 2011. 77 of the 105 aboard died. The aircraft involved, a Boeing 727-286Adv, was operating Iran Air's scheduled domestic service from Mehrabad International Airport, Tehran, to Urmia. It crashed after a go-around was initiated during final approach, in poor weather conditions.
The aircraft involved in the accident was a Boeing 727, registration EP-IRP, built in 1974. The aircraft had spent a long time out of service. It was impounded at Baghdad, Iraq from 1984 to 1990, and then placed in storage from 1991 to 2002. It was then overhauled and returned to service.
The flight was travelling between Tehran and Urmia and crashed on final approach near Urmia Airport. The accident occurred at around 19:45 local time (16:15 UTC), and was reportedly caused by poor weather. The aircraft had missed its first attempt at landing; it either crashed during a go-around, or while attempting to return to Tehran. The weather conditions at the time of the accident included snow and low visibility. Upon impact, the aircraft broke into multiple pieces, though without fire or explosions. There were differing initial reports as to the type of aircraft that crashed, with either a Fokker 100 or a Boeing 727 claimed to have crashed, although the aircraft was later confirmed to be a Boeing 727.

GUIDE (Guidance of Users of Integrated Data-Processing Equipment) was a users' group for users of IBM computer systems.
GUIDE was formed in 1956; it was incorporated in 1970 as a non-profit organization under the name of GUIDE International Corporation. At its peak GUIDE had a membership of around 2,000 companies and institutions.
In 1994 in Europe GUIDE merged with the European arm of SHARE, another major IBM users' group forming GSE (Guide Share Europe).
In the US GUIDE ceased operation in September 1999. Although the groups did not merge, many of GUIDE's activities and projects were taken over by SHARE, and GUIDE suggested to its members that they join SHARE. In August 2000, SHARE took over the guide.org domain name.

Time travel is considered by most people to be impossible. There are certain individuals out there who, despite popular opinion, are confident in their abilities to travel back in time. Moon Boots, a mysterious DJ that claims to live in "an unnamed U.S. location," is one of these rare individuals. With his remix of Elohim's "Xanax," Moon Boots took the dreamlike future track with hip hop beats back to the 70's by giving it a more energetic, retro, disco feel to it. Extended metaphors aside, this remix completely transforms the tone of the original track from feelings of melancholy, lethargy, and dejection to sensations of alertness in conjunction with placidity and positivity. While the tone is wholly modified, Elohim's hazily enrapturing voice is left undisturbed, care of Moon Boots, which allows the remix to retain the overall calm, stoic vibe that Elohim gives off in waves.
The addition of a heaping stack of up-tempo keyboard and synth layers over Elohim's voice, which, by the way, seems to be gently drawn out of her rather than forcefully emitted by her, along with the replacement of Elohim's modern hip hop beats with simple, dance-inducing disco beats and tambourine takes the ever-present dreariness that characterized the original and throws it out the window. If one were to speculate on any sort of symbolism related to this remix, one could reasonably judge that by giving the song a tone that was popular in decades past and synonymous with good times and energy to replace very modern sounding instrumentals that bleed misery, Moon Boots could be musically illustrating the concept of "back in the good old days when things weren't so complicated." Regardless of any potential deeper meanings, this remix is a good old fashioned head-bobber. Try and listen to this without bobbing your head once, I dare you.


NewTek Discussions > LightWave 3D Support > General Support > Easy way for mouse-overs?
View Full Version : Easy way for mouse-overs?
I'm working on an animation that has to run continuously (looping), but the client wants clickable mouse-overs so that when clicked (or moused over) an explanation box appears. I was hoping to pull it off in Flash, but that's not an option (I'm not in the mood or budget for Swift 3D).
Can I place the movie in Dreamweaver and assign hot spots?
You could probably do it in Dreamweaver, but my knowledge there is limited. I don't see why you couldn't put a .mov in a page, set it to loop, and then put a clickable hotspot over the top.
I would personnally pre-render whatever sequences you need, import the images sequences/movies into Flash, build your structures and export a .swf. Throw that in your web page or create a standalone .exe/.app and you're set. This could just be that I'm more comfortable with ActionScript than html, so to each his own.
If you don't truly need real-time 3D I encourage you to avoid it.
And... you should head over to the Dreamweaver forums, as this isn't so much a LW question.
Hey Blueapple, thanks. From what I've gleaned online, you can't get from LW to Flash without something like Swift 3D ($299, hasn't been upgraded since 2007).
I've got wheels turning, fans spinning, arrows and gas flowing through pipes, (let's not forget the flickering flame in the burner!), and now they want to add descriptive boxes as mouse-overs.
I think you're right about the .mov with hot spots, though. I'm happy playing with points, vectors, and pixels - HTML and ActionScript make my eyes close.

Baruch S. Blumberg Institute Hosts 17th Annual Regional Biotechnology Conference
Two products created at the Pennsylvania Biotechnology Center, now in human use, were inducted into the Product Wall of Fame
DOYLESTOWN, Pa. (November 29, 2017) – More than 100 of the area's life science and biotechnology leaders gathered at the Pennsylvania Biotechnology Center on November 17 for the 17th annual Regional Biotech Conference, organized by the Baruch S. Blumberg Institute.
This year's event focused on angel investing, and included presentations from entrepreneurs who had solicited investors for their start up company, as well as "angels" who have invested in start ups. "Angels" are those who invest very early in the life cycle of a start up company, usually taking the greatest risk.
"Angels have come to the right place to see ideas with great promise," said PA State Rep Marguerite Quinn. The Pennsylvania Biotechnology Center is home to more than 30 companies, and has helped launch start ups that have gained more than $2 billion in value, says Timothy Block, PhD, President of the Baruch S. Blumberg Institute and the Pennsylvania Biotechnology Center.
Speakers at the conference included Sanjay K. Sehgal, Founder, Managing Partner & CEO of East West Capital Partners; Lillian Chiang, PhD, President and CEO, FORGE Life Sciences; Peter Young, Executive-In-Residence, Pappas Capital; and Tom Petro, Founder and Managing Partner, 1867 Capital Partners. Loren Danzig, Esq., a partner at Fox Rothschild, also joined the panel discussion. The presenting sponsor was Univest.
At the conclusion of the program, the PA Biotechnology Center recognized the first two products to be developed and FDA-approved by companies based at the Center. The products will be featured as part of the Center's new Product Wall of Fame, unveiled at the event. Michael Daley, PhD, was honored for GenVisc 850, a product developed by his company OrthogenRx for the treatment of osteoarthritis knee pain. Kunwar Shailubhai, PhD, accepted recognition for Synergy Pharmaceutical's drug TRULANCE, approved for the management of gastrointestinal disorders.

COVID's Heavy Toll On Youth: Depression, Suicides, Opioid Overdoses Increase In Pandemic Era
An increase in suicidal thoughts and attempts; anxiety; and depression are among the major mental health consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic in youth, new research shows.
In a national survey of 1000 high school and college students, almost 25% reported they knew a peer who developed suicidal thoughts since the start of the pandemic — and 5% reported making a suicide attempt themselves since COVID struck.
In addition, more than half reported they were worried about their own mental health.
Commissioned by the nonprofit organization Chegg.org (an advocacy, fundraising, and research group aimed at students nationwide) and conducted in partnership with the Born This Way Foundation (a nonprofit aimed at supporting the emotional/mental health of today's youth) the report findings "shed vital light on the toll the pandemic has had on students' mental health," Maya Enista Smith, executive director of the Born This Way Foundation, said in a news release.
"It is so incredibly important that young people do not suffer in silence, and that we properly understand and prioritize their mental and emotional wellness," Smith added.
Coping During COVID
The findings are part of the fourth report in Chegg.org's 2020 State of the Student Series, which was created to offer "insights into how students are feeling and coping during the COVID pandemic."
The survey, conducted August 7-17, included 1000 students currently enrolled in US high schools and colleges. Results showed that 58% of the college students and 53% of the high school students reported being "moderately" or "very" or "extremely" worried about their own mental health.
In addition, 53% of college students and 62% of high school students reported reported increased stress since the start of the pandemic, 48% and 51% experienced anxiety, and 33% and 38% suffered depression. More than half (55%) of respondents reported they had offered support to a friend they thought might be struggling with mental health issues and 49% reported a friend had reached out to them.
In addition, 23% of college students and 24% of high school students said they knew of someone who had had suicidal thoughts since the start of COVID-19; some 5% of both groups reported that they had made a suicide attempt themselves. "In general, females are more likely to be anxious, or report feeling hopeless, isolation, or having thoughts of suicide," the authors report.
"Real Conversations" Essential
Results also showed that only 43% of the college group and 40% of the high school group said their school provided mental health resources school and only 38% of both groups believed their teachers "take mental health seriously."
Two thirds of participants reported they had never sought help from college or school counseling services. Of these, 24% said it was because they didn't feel comfortable doing so.
Among the 29% of students who did seek counselling services at school, 76% reported that it was helpful.
Finally, the survey showed that 46% of college students and 47% of high school students reported they were anxious about a return to school, whereas only one quarter of students reported feeling optimistic about such a return.
"The fact that significant numbers of students are experiencing stress, anxiety, and depression yet do not feel comfortable seeking help from their professors or teachers, or their college or school counseling services, demonstrates that students are not receiving the support they deserve," Lila Thomas, director of social impact at Chegg and head of Chegg.org said in a release.
Still, "we are pleased to see that young people are reaching out to their friends for support during these uncertain times," Christine Moutier, MD, chief medical officer for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, said in the same release.
"It's more important than ever that we continue to educate young people about how to have real conversations about mental health. By doing so, we will be able to save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide," Moutier added.
Uncertainty a "Big Driver" of Anxiety
Commenting on the findings, Anish R. Dube, MD, MPH, a member of the American Psychiatric Association's Council on Children, Adolescents, and their Families, told Medscape Medical News that the increase in stress and anxiety in youth because of COVID-19 was expected.
"But this report puts a number on that and to see how much of an increase there was is pretty concerning. Even more problematic is the 5% who actually attempted suicide," said Dube, a psychiatrist working in the juvenile justice system for Orange County, California.
Dube noted that he has witnessed an increase in stress and anxiety in his own patients during the pandemic. Although he has not observed an increase in suicidal thoughts in his outpatients, his colleagues who work in pediatric emergency departments "have seen an increase in the severity of attempts."
"In my own experience, there's lot more stress and anxiety about what's going to happen to their family members, especially those with pre-existing medical conditions," Dube said. Also, his young patients have expressed concern about their own futures. "Nobody quite knows what direction the job market is going to go, what jobs are going to be still left, and are they being adequately prepared in school," he added.
In addition, he noted that worries about school differ among individual patients. Some are anxious about staying safe at school fearing for their own health and risking the health of family members at home. Others worry about staying home and the negative impact of social isolation. Uncertainty, said Dube, is a "big driver" of a lot of the anxiety in youth.
Public Health Response Needed
Overall, the new report highlights that "we have to frame mental health not just from an individual psychopathology level but from a public health standpoint," Dube said.
"The numbers show that half of students are reporting symptoms for anxiety disorders. We just don't have the capacity, as far as clinicians in the United States, to treat everybody on an individual level. So it requires a public health initiative," he noted.
"The same way you have smoking cessation or talk about obesity, mental health has to become a part of that same conversation. It's not just about physical wellness, we have to also look at mental well-being," he said. It's important for clinicians "to look out for folks who are coasting," meaning those who appear to be doing well but are hiding their true feelings or symptoms and who are not seeking help, said Dube.
"We have to be extra vigilant, especially on suicidality and if they know others having problems. As clinicians, it's reaching out more to the young people that we treat and to their support systems," he added.


Indian Wells, California — Naomi Osaka defeated Daria Kasatkina (RUS) in straight sets (6-3, 6-2) on March 18th to win a spectacular career-first tour tournament at the BNP Paribas Open. In doing so, she becomes the first Japanese female to win a Premier Mandatory event (one grade below Grand Slam), as well as the first unseeded winner at Indian Wells since Kim Clijsters in 2005, and the youngest since Ana Ivanovic in 2008.
On her way to the win, Osaka cut a swath through a gallery of veteran stars dropping only one set all tournament against the likes of former World No. 1 players Maria Sharapova (RUS) and No. 5 Karolina Pliskova (CZE), former World No. 2 Agnieszka Radwanska (POL), and current World No. 1 Simona Halep (ROU). Kasatkina, for her part as well, battled through top 10 players such as World No. 2 Caroline Wozniacki (DEN), to set up the next gen showdown in the finals.
Osaka's tremendous power was on display as she drove home 23 winners during the match. Switching to the newly redesigned EZONE 98 at the beginning of the season, she's posted a 15-4 record including a round of 16 showing at the Australian Open and a quarterfinal appearance in Dubai.
"At this tournament, I felt my play getting better match by match. I especially thought I was getting good results from my forehand and service," Osaka said. "I'm grateful to Yonex for always supporting me. Thanks!" Her world ranking is expected to jump to a career-best No. 22 with this result, though Osaka said she's not concerned with the rankings, and just wants to continue playing at this level through the rest of the year.

NEW YORK, N.Y. – May 7 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — It's that time of year again! The time where almost every high school student in New York is stressing about Regents Exams. Administered statewide, Regents Exams assess student aptitude on a variety of subjects, and passing is a requirement for students to receive a Regents diploma. While meeting basic standards may be the basic goal for many, most students seek to exceed minimal expectations, as Regents Exam scores are included on high school transcripts and are taken into account for college admission.
Now, for the first time, an innovative, multimedia course to prepare for the Regents Exams is being offered by RegentsTutor.com. At www.RegentsTutor.com teachers, parents and students are finding a powerful multimedia website that enables students to meet and exceed expectations. RegentsTutor.com's unique Video Courses are constructed using hundreds of streaming interactive videos of enthusiastic and charismatic teachers, who lead students through the core curricula. RegentsTutor.com courses are designed to individualize teaching of the Regents curricula in the manner students today want to learn – on the Internet, with video, at the pace they choose, when they choose.
Not only are the courses unique and innovative, but they are also affordable. Costing less than most tutors charge for a 1 hour session, RegentsTutor.com's subscriptions offer unlimited access for prices ranging from $17.99 a month for one biology unit to $39.00 a month for the Comprehensive Subject plan.

Q: openssl.cafile with no value for web requests only In a fresh Valet installation I've updated within my php.ini:
openssl.cafile = "/usr/local/etc/openssl@1.1/cert.pem"
Then, within my Laravel public/index.php I'm outputting my phpinfo(); on line 1.
If I then perform a request via Postman I can see:

    Directive
    Local Value
    Master Value

    openssl.cafile
    no value
    no value

However the expected result I can see via tinker is:
Directive => Local Value => Master Value
openssl.cafile => /usr/local/etc/openssl@1.1/cert.pem => /usr/local/etc/openssl@1.1/cert.pem

As far as I understand both requests should load the same file, yet that doesn't happen.
In both cases loaded php.ini is the same:

    Loaded Configuration File
    /usr/local/etc/php/7.4/php.ini

Loaded Configuration File => /usr/local/etc/php/7.4/php.ini

I've already tried copying the pem to a different folder, but either way it's not loaded for web requests. What can I do?

A: Still don't know what the reason for this is, but as a workaround I've:

*

*copied /usr/local/etc/openssl@1.1/cert.pem to /usr/local/etc/php/7.4/cacert.pem

*set curl.cainfo = "/usr/local/etc/php/7.4/cacert.pem" within my php.ini file

This way at least given file is always included

Still working on the P1k RS-2 NHRR DERS-2b (click here, here and here for earlier related posts) and have just about finished adding the body details, so I've turned my attention to the pilot.
Building on their positive experience with dual-mode diesels during the war years (the 60 Alco DL-109s/DER-1s), the New Haven returned to Alco in late 1947 for its first roadswitchers - the RS-2 (class DERS-2b) - and made sure they too were equipped for passenger service. In fact, many of the NH-specific details that have to be added to RS-2 models have to do with adding passenger mode equipment.
But these details aren't limited to just adding a steam generator intake & exhaust stacks. One of the first things you notice about the pilot on the New Haven's version of the RS-2, is the presence of a passenger car diaphragm buffer.
Problem is, there's no detail part for this.
and it's practically a drop-in for the Atlas RS-1 model. But it doesn't come anywhere close to fitting the Proto 1000 RS-2 model and, as a metal casting, isn't easily modified. So I figured I'd try making one out of styrene that would fit on top of a standard Kadee coupler box.
The buffers are .31" wide to allow the sides to clear the sides of the KD coupler box.
As you can see above, it's easier to use a long strip as a handle, gluing to both buffers at the same time (which I did on a piece of glass to make sure everything was flush). Then trim to fit.
Next, I added the sides as above. In addition to the perfectly-flat surface of the glass, I made sure the side was perfectly vertical by pressing it against a machinist's square as I added Tenax with a microbrush.
The above is the result. Repeat four times.
The coupler still rubs on the buffer a little, but that'll be a simple matter of filing a little material away from the end of the buffer itself.
For an evening's work, I'm pretty pleased with how these scratchbuilt buffers came out, though I'm considering redoing the sides to .020 wide so they'll cover the entire side of the coupler box (and look even more like the prototype - a bit more bulky).
Speaking of the pilot, I plan to replace the molded-on coupler lift bars and grabs with wire. The lift bars are no problem (Detail Associates makes the right bar, but the brackets aren't correct - though I think I can live with that), but who makes these crazy grabs?
They're pretty common on the prototype, and very distinctive with those double bends. But I'll be dipped if I can find anybody that makes them. If you know of a source, please let me know. Otherwise, like the buffers, I may have to figure out how to make them myself.
Thanks very much Todd! I didn't realize Kato was still making these available. Heh - if I'd figured that out sooner I may have been sorely tempted to just use one of those sets from the start! But you're right, at this point I might as well just create a jig and make my own. How hard can it be to just make 4 little grabs #temptingfate :) Thanks for your comment and for stopping by the blog - have a great weekend!

"Wastin' away again in Margaritaville…" That song has been popping into my head off and on for days now. It's not a broken heart problem, and I can't have a Margarita, but I've got the "wastin' away" part down pretty good.
Last night I was watching Survivor and noticed how skinny the contestants are lately. I've been dropping weight for months. First, I lost a few pounds before having to go gluten-free, then lost more afterwards, and I've lost one more in the past couple of weeks after having to make some other temporary dietary changes in an effort to deal with a temporary situation. When I saw the contestants' bones sticking out, I thought that at least I'm not that skinny.
Later in the evening I checked my back with a mirror. Uh, oh. My spine and my shoulder blades are becoming prominent. So are muscles, not because I'm so strong, but because there is no fat to go between the muscles and the skin and the bones. I decided I look like the Survivor contestants looked last week. It's kind of scary to see that and think of how my blood pressure has also dropped. I need to look up normal blood pressure for a 12-year-old. That's probably what mine is right now.
Last week is when this really started to bother me. I was in the grocery store in the produce section, of course, piling veggies into my buggy. I felt like someone was staring at me. I glanced over in the direction of an elderly lady who appeared to be concerned. I imagined that she was thinking, "Why is that woman so skinny? It's not nice to stare. Is that all she eats? I shouldn't be staring. What is wrong with her? OK…quit looking at her." I've never had anyone do that and it really made me feel self-conscious.
I've already gone out and bought smaller jeans and slacks. My others were about to slide off. I thought I'd be Grandma with her pants on the ground on the grocery store parking lot if I didn't do something. So, I went one size smaller. That was about a month ago and now those jeans are too big.
The day I bought the jeans I also tried on a pair of slacks. I told my friend if I gain one pound these pants won't fit, so I didn't get them. I've lost a few pounds since that day, so I went back to the store and the pants were still there. I got them. They are a bit loose on me now, but I got them. A friend told me that her mom, who is gluten-intolerant, went from a size 6 to a 0, then up to a size 2. If I come in at a 2 when the dust settles here, I'll be happy. The pants I just bought may not fit any more, but that will be fine with me.
This morning I was telling my husband my observations about how I stack up against the Survivor contestants' skin and bones and I started crying a bit. He was surprised by that. It's not something that I do very often. I don't think he'll tell me I look like a starving person in a third-world country any more. He did ask why I'm losing weight and he's not and he eats pretty much the same things I do. I told him, "Beer and pretzels." Plus, other things he can eat that I can't like bread and cheese, but I had to pick at him a little bit.
I have to say, because I'm trying really hard to be thankful always, that we are both glad I feel good. I have lots of energy and it lasts all the way through the day and on into the evening. It's so nice not to be dragging a protesting body through life any more. I reckon I'll get used to being skinny. When I was 12, I was this size and my friends called me "Twiggy." I guess I'll be thankful and start thinking groovy thoughts and all will be well.
ADDENDUM, April 27, 2012: If you are considering going gluten-free as a weight loss plan, I wouldn't recommend it. My weight loss started before I came off gluten. My nurse practitioner said what is happening with my body getting skinny is a result of the changes to the body caused from intolerance. I eat like a Hobbit. (That means I stop often to eat a small meal no matter what I'm doing.) It's not caused from my diet.
When a person quits eating gluten, it's not a matter of just buying processed gluten-free products to take the place of processed foods that have gluten in them. After all, Coco Puffs are gluten-free. Fresh and frozen foods are the best bet to get the most nutrition from what you eat. Getting proper nutrition can help with weight loss. So, as they say, shop the perimeter of the store and go to the middle for dried beans and grains.

We came out of church Sunday to see a puddle under our truck. It was gas. We stopped at O'Reilly's to get something to patch or plug it with until we could get it to Our Usual Place on Monday.
The leak was on the front tank which we don't use because the pump doesn't work, and/or the float doesn't work. It was also up under the shield that is on the tank, so your dad couldn't get to it to fix it. So, we had this drip, drip, drip going on and it was Sunday and Our Usual Place was closed.
So then, we – your daddy, your younger brother and I – ran around here like crazy people trying to figure out what to do with all this gas. We couldn't just let it sit out there and drip all night. They were gathering up buckets to siphon it out into while I was trying to find a way to avoid doing that. What would we do with 12-13 gallons of bad gas? It had been sitting in the tank since at least 2006, so it was too old to be any good.
It finally dawned on me that we could put a small container under it to catch the drips. I had saved a couple of empty dishwasher soap pellet containers from church, so we used one of those. We were letting it drip, but as least it wasn't dripping on the ground.
Monday morning, your dad called Our Usual Place to tell them what was going on and that we needed the tank drained. He told the man who answered the phone his name, but this guy didn't know him. The man he was talking to asked someone else about draining our tank, then came back to the phone and said they didn't have the equipment to drain a tank safely and they couldn't do it. What?! That made no sense to me because they said they could fix it before when it was just the pump or whatever and they could drain it back then.
So, here we were again not knowing what to do. I got the not so brilliant idea to call the fire department and your daddy was so desperate, he did it. So, here come firemen in the big truck to our house. All we wanted to know was who could do this. Oh, boy. So, I figured they were going to condemn our truck to the driveway until it's not dripping gas.
While they were on the way, I called the gas station again, since it was Monday. They said they could do that, no problem! So, I went outside and told this to your daddy and the three firemen who were all looking underneath our truck when I came around the corner of the house.
They said they had some stuff to patch it but the leak isn't accessible. We told them that we had the same problem. We discussed how I just found a place to fix it, and no, it hasn't dripped more than that inch or so into the container since the middle of yesterday afternoon, and that it would probably be safe to drive it just to the gas station, and how your daddy wouldn't even drive it a few blocks to visit his dad the day before because he was afraid to drive around a truck with a leaking gas tank, and how I'm like a Safety Officer because I'm a mom and I was always warning y'all about explosives and poison. So, they let us drive it to the gas station.
We borrowed Pawpaw and Granny's car so we could get back home and took the truck to the gas station. (Thankfully, the one day your dad went in to work late this week was on Monday!) After a while, the gas station called. Your daddy answered the phone and talked to the man. Then he came in the kitchen and told me the gas station couldn't do it because it would cost too much for the disposal. What?! What do people do with old gas?
Then it hit me! Call Our Usual Place and see if Our Usual Man is there and ask him what he would do! So I did, and he answered the phone. I said, "I am SO glad you answered the phone!" He didn't quite know what to say because that was the first thing I said to him and he didn't know who he was talking to or why. And I was, and sounded, mighty desperate.
I told him we have a leaking gas tank. It's the front tank and we don't use it and we can't find a place to drain it. We took it to the gas station and they said they could, but now they said they can't because it's too expensive to dispose of the old gas. What would you do? We've even called the fire department and they don't know what to do! We can't drive around town with a gas leak! What would you do? We called y'all and y'all couldn't do it and we have to do something and we don't know what to do! What would you do if you had this problem?" I was about to cry. He hadn't said a word.
Then, he said, "You called us?" I said, "Yes! You were our first choice! But y'all said you couldn't do it and we don't know where to take it or what to do. What would you do?" He cheerfully offered to put a new gas tank on the truck. (Yeah. They don't have the equipment…sure. That's what your daddy thought. They didn't want to do a small job and didn't know it was us who have been going to them for a gazillion years. I think they might have done it if we had just driven up to the place and asked. But I'm glad to know what we learned, so that's OK.) I asked how much would a new tank cost? He said he could make some phone calls and find out and call me back. I told him two or three times that he couldn't just put the old gas back in, it would have to be disposed of some way. He never said a word about that.
I called the gas station and the man said he didn't even know if he could get a tank for that truck any more. He also said he thought we didn't want to use the tank anyway. I told him we didn't want to, but no one could just drain it. He said he could drain it. He was just telling your dad that it's expensive to dispose of the old gas, so that would add to the cost of the job. I told him I would expect that! So, he told me it would be $75.00 labor and $4-$5 a gallon for disposal. I told him that would be great, go for it.
Then I made my last call ever to Our Former Usual Place and told them the gas station could drain it; your daddy and the man on the phone just mis-communicated about the disposal. This mix-up saved me the phone call I was going to make. I was going to call and ask why they couldn't drain it when they could have fixed it a few years ago and it would have involved draining it. It didn't take long and the gas station had it fixed and now has a new customer.


The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) was organized in 1880 to provide a focal point for discussion among engineers regarding the key issues and concerns brought by the rising industrialization and mechanization of the period, particularly in the area of machine safety and reliability. ASME today helps the global engineering community develop solutions to real world challenges. Its varied programs enable collaboration, knowledge sharing and skill development across all engineering disciplines, while promoting the vital role of the engineer in society. ASME codes and standards, publications, conferences, continuing education and professional development programs provide a foundation for advancing technical knowledge and a safer world.
The purposes of the Society are to promote the science and practice of mechanical and interdisciplinary engineering, encourage original research, foster engineering education, advance the standards of engineering, and promote a high level of ethical practice. ASME holds ethics paramount in the professional makeup of the engineer, and maintains a Code of Ethics of Engineers. The code requires engineers to uphold the integrity, honor and dignity of the profession and addresses environmental protection, safety compliance, technical communications, conflicts of interest, and other issues.

Q: Extraordinarily long names in Modern Warfare? Every now and then I run into people with names that extend off the screen in Modern Warfare 2.  How can I get a name like that?  Steam seems to limit the number of characters I can have when I try.

A: I don't think there's any secret to it at all. The font is proportional and so it's important to use wide characters. To produce this screenshot I simply entered as many G in Steam settings as was possible. There are probably wider characters.

Indeed, the letter W extends off-screen without having to mouseover the name.

A: I believe that to achieve what you want, you would need some 3rd party enabler which would be against the game's ToS, I'm sure.  I had a suspicion that the Developer's Console would provide some name change abilities(which it may) but unless some things have changed, it seems even enabling the Developer's Console is even considered a 'hack'.
