Report on the new Twin Hornet pre-heat system before the latest test flight is positive.
Weather over the last three days has gone from bitter cold low 20's to mid 40's yesterday to mid 30's today. The wind has been howling everyday, and today was gusting 26 knots. Inside the hangar I found all three heaters to be ON, the Nacelles warm to the touch, and the cabin comfortably warm. That is a good first sign – no heat stress on anything.
I took my time developing a flow or process for taking the heaters out for a flight and storing them off to the side. Pull the extension cord plug that is powers all three heaters; remove, fold, and store the blankets; and remove the cowl plugs and pitot cover and store those as usual. Then I pull out the new Twin Hornet 22 heaters from the nacelles and walk them to the buckets holding the left and right blankets. I need to be careful not to drop them, so I resist the temptation to lay them on the nacelles for a moment.
I open the door to get the Twin Hornet 45 that sits on the floor and move it back to the baggage area. It is difficult to get a certain grip on it, and will be improved if it had a plastic handle on the top.
I get out of the airplane and close the door, walking around to the baggage area from the outside. I take out the heater and put it out of the way on the floor. Again I am cautious not to leave it on the shelf in the hangar, worrying that tripping on the cord will send it crashing to the floor. Just a few minutes of care will keep these from being damaged. This little cube needs a handle.
I hooked up the PowerTow and towed the airplane out of the hangar. Very cool how smoothly it started and how great the adjustments I made were.
With the airplane outside, I left the cowl flaps closed for now and chocked the airplane. Put the tow away and close up the hangar while my motors cool in the gusting winds. I can't worry about that and won't rush.
With my car in the hangar and the door closed up, I climbed into the cabin and found warm and comfortable still. Master switch on, both oil gauges indicated on the low end of the scale. Any indication means the oil is heated, so I'm comfortable that I'm better off than without pre-heat.
I push up the mixture for the left engine and see a most definite improvement in it's movement. The pre-heat has made this cable, which I acknowledge is binding and needs replacement, much easier to move. It isn't binding! I'm not sure if the nacelle heat made the difference, or the cabin heat. One of them most certainly made this issue easier to deal with until I get the cable replaced.
It was difficult to tell from my non-scientific testing if the starting was improved any. Both cold starts and hot starts fire right up. What I did notice is the oil pressure reached normal levels more quickly, and never went very high at all. Remember that the right engine has 100W mineral oil for the new cylinder, and cold pressures get pretty high. I think the heaters are doing a great job and I'm glad I bought them at this point!
I take off from runway 32 and do a climbing left turn toward Georgetown. The winds were howling and the ride was rough, but the autopilot performed flawlessly.
Is that because it's warm, or because I have been exercising it over several of these test flights? I have no idea, butI can tell you that the airplane had bugs when I flew it the first time, and those bugs drop off one at a time and the airplane flies.
It was very nice to see the airplane perform so well today, as I reach 10.4 total hours since the Jan 6th return to flight. Only 4.6 more hours and I'll schedule time with Matt for the 15 hour check.
I love the airplane and I absolutely love the hangar setup with pre-heat. As I stood there admiring it all, I couldn't help but see how badly my spinners need polishing! As soon as it gets warm, I'll spend a wonderful day to that one at a time.
Oh – I made another VFR mistake like a rookie. I turned downwind to taxiway Bravo instead of runway 28 at Delaware Coastal (Georgetown). I announced turning final on 28 and the heading indicator wasn't near 28. The picture out the window confirmed I was an idiot, going around to try again. At least it was solid go-around practice and I did it right the second time. Dufus!
The flight home was bumpy, but uneventful I even flew a circuit around my house before heading back to the barn.
I am planning to fly tomorrow, but am not sure in what direction. I may do a few approaches, since I haven't done one in this airplane in a very long time. The Autopilot works 100% and I can't wait to try it.

Honoring A Legend
As the year comes to a close, we thank all who have had a lasting impact on our village over the years. This year, we pay tribute to an honorary "Troublemaker of the Best Kind," Cultural Leadership's first Transformational Journey driver, Mr. James Robinson. Mr. Robinson safely transported Classes 1 through 5 throughout their Journey, sharing bits of his own history and experiences with students. Though Mr. Robinson transitioned this year, his impact on many of our alumni will live on.
Maayan Simckes, Epidemiologist at Washington State Department of Health, and Class 1 alum shares her memories:
"I got to know Mr. Robinson on our Class 1 Transformational Journey, and sang a rendition of "Mrs. Robinson" by Simon and Garfunkel for him when we returned to St. Louis and did our presentation to families. He made our days sweeter and brighter and made us all laugh with his "Wassuuuup??" every time we got on the bus. When I was a trip leader a few years later, we spent more time together chatting about life, responsibility, work, and the day to day. He gave me wise advice and was a kind ear and shoulder to lean on. I will always carry my memories of Mr Robinson close and know his memory will be a blessing to the many many lives he touched."
Thank you for sharing your wisdom, Mr. Robinson. You remain in the hearts of your Cultural Leadership family!

The Walking Mind
Mostly about games, but with occasional detours into other nerdy territories.
What's in a Book?
If you have never done so, stop and think about what goes into a good RPG book. Not the RPG, but the book itself.
There are a lot of challenges a designer faces when it comes time to design the book. An RPG potentially needs to do 3 things –
1. Teach a game,
2. Provide and engaging read,
3. Serve as a reference
This is the project management triangle of game publishing – at absolutely best you can pick two, but on many days you'll be lucky to get just one. If there's a game that has ever successfully done all 3, I have not seen it.[1]
But it's not the only choice that needs to get made – completeness is also a spectrum. To illustrate, look at Evil Hat's two big games – Spirit of the Century and The Dresden Files RPG. Fate is a fairly lightweight system, but those are *huge* books, because we made the decision to really talk everything through. They're iceberg books – the amount that actually comes up in play is much smaller than the body of information presented, but that large body is what supports the tip.
The problem is, this is daunting for many. The idea that Spirit of the Century is a pick up game seems preposterous if judged purely by page count. So there is an impulse to step away from that level of completeness in order to provide something easier to digest. Rules that add complexity get trimmed, edge cases get smoothed down, complex sets get standardized, all in favor of striking a balance that serves a different set of priorities.
And this is an important thing – something really critical to understanding Fate and the role of Fate Core – these are not the *right* choices, they are the choices which *best serve* the goal. The Fate Core book is, effectively, the 101 on Fate. It covers the basics, teaches you how to use it, and gives an implementation that works very well for a core set of activities. But like most 101's, it is a foundation that will largely get discarded in detail (though not in spirit) as you proceed along the path of mastery.
We talk a lot about "dials" in the rules, as a way to adjust certain rules to certain effects, but even that is a streamline. When we say everything in Fate is a dial, we really mean *everything*. The four outcomes? Dial. Stress and consequences? Dial. The fate point economy? Dial. I can change every one of those things in substantial ways and still have a game that is recognizably Fate. And that's the point.
The secret of Fate Core is that there really is no core, or rather, what core there is is so small that it wouldn't even cover a piece of paper. Fate is a tool to create and resolve interesting situations and respect what's important. But like most such simple premises, it spawns a thousand questions which – if answered – result in some really big books.
Why does this matter? Because it means that Fate Core is going to be flawed. Not just because it's a human endeavor, but because it's a snapshot of a certain set of priorities, and those priorities are not going to suit every gamer and every game. Hell, many of them do not suit *me*. But despite that, it is critical that there *be* a baseline, for without that discussion is difficult to pursue and, by no coincidence, if that baseline is accessible, then it is easier to discuss.
So, read Fate Core. Learn from Fate Core. And when you reach the point where you want to change things to fix them? THAT'S where the journey really begins.
1 – If you think a game has, and that game just happens to be your favorite game, then it is possible that you are a tiny bit biased.

I think Over the Edge comes close to hitting all three goals, but I am totally, totally biased there.
Roman February 4, 2013 at 6:09 pm
I think that Unknown Armies manages it well, and it isn't even my favorite game, though I have enjoyed it.
(That said, I do think you've managed to hit all three high points in Fate Core.)
Ryan Macklin February 4, 2013 at 8:06 pm
I've been thinking about this for some time now, especially as I was putting together Mythender, working with Lenny on Fate Core's word budget, etc. And I see the list as larger:
4. Not intimidate a reader
Point #4 isn't solely about book size, but that's a decent chunk of it. And on our best days, we'll maybe hit three of those. And lately I'm wondering if we're too readily throwing that fourth point under the bus in the books our hobby creates.
– Ryan
Rob Donoghue February 4, 2013 at 9:00 pm
Hmm. I admit, I would totally have folded #4 into #2 – it's important, but I'm not sure it's separate, specifically because every action I would take to address is an action I would take for #2.
That said, I might *expand* it – there's a marketing sort of angle which might be boiled down to "Make a book that someone *wants* to read" which would include intimidation, but would also include things like not having creepily sexist art on the cover, making an artifact that you want to pick up, things like that. Really, that's the umbrella of a good *product* irrespective of content.
Now, *that* I would say is important, but as I think about it, I'd still eave it off the list for a simple reason – that is not at odds with any of the other priorities. It's something you should do, but it doesn't demand tradeoffs in the same way that choosing between 1, 2 and 3 do. So, definitely agreeing that it's important, but I'd categorize it differently.
I used to fold #4 into #2, but a switch flipped last year that made me re-think that–and solely about production, not marketing. But I think it'll take a blog post to unpack those thoughts. In short: #4 is "will someone pick up and try the book" and #2 is "will someone be engaged once they do try the book." And I separate them because I have seen many books fail at one because they weren't both considered in production.

When I publish a game, it's going to have five sections: Why to Play, How to Play, Troubleshooting, Final Thoughts, and Reference. It'll have those marks on the edge of its pages to mark each section (what the hell are those called?). I will make a point, on the back cover, of how one can look at the edge of the book and see how tiny the How to Play section is. And of course I won't stop there; I'll do some YouTube videos as well. ALL THE WAYS TO LEARN.

"Through the sea of Jungle Island guests it was wonderful to witness two departments coming together to offer support and educational information on the impact of hearing loss," said Sergio Guerreiro, Au.D., assistant professor of clinical otolaryngology.
Representatives from the UM Ear Institute, The Barton G. Kids Hear Now Cochlear Implant Family Resource Center, the Department of Pediatrics' Division of Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology and the Debbie School were out in full force demonstrating state-of-the-art hearing amplification technology and teaching the value of hearing conservation.
"It was exciting to see our two departments working together in the magical atmosphere of Jungle Island to provide important information to our community about hearing loss," said Kathy Vergara, M.A., director of the Debbie School.
Teams from the UM Ear Institute and Pediatrics joined forces to educate the community about hearing loss at the Easter Eggstravaganza event.

Q: strcmp doesn't return 0 for 2 exact files i wrote a code with c, that reads from 2 files, and than i compare the 2 buffers with strcmp. for some strings, even when i read from the exact same file, strcmp returns !=0
anybody has an idea why?
here is the relevent part from the code:
read_max[0]= read(fdin[0],read_buf,read_offset) ;
read_max[1]=read(fdin[1],read_buf2,read_offset);

    if(strcmp(read_buf,read_buf2)){
        same=1;
    }

i tried to check for answers on this forum and in others, but the only answer i found was for the case of '\n' that is added.
as i wrote in the headline, the problem isnwt that it doesn't get inside  the if, but that it does( because it doesn't return 0)!
its not the case here. the way of writing the strings are the same.
in edition, sometimes strcmp works properly.
for example, if the file starts with whitespace or \n, it goes wrong.
thank you!

A: You should use memcmp instead:
if(read_max[0] != read_max[1] || memcmp(read_buf,read_buf2, read_max[0]) != 0) {
    /* Buffers are different */
}

A: The function srtcmp() returns 0 when two strings are equal.
Change code like this:
if(!strcmp(read_buf,read_buf2)){
    same=1;
}

or
if(strcmp(read_buf,read_buf2) == 0){
    same=1;
}

Is China Really Opening Up Its Consumer Markets?

Tristan Kenderdine
Tristan Kenderdine is Research Director at Future Risk and lecturer in Public Administration at Dalian Maritime University.
China is enacting reforms to normalise the importation of goods for domestic consumption. Yet any opening of the Chinese market will be selective and will serve state industrial policy, Tristan Kenderdine writes
China's 2016 e-commerce 13th Five-Year Plan was a signal to the domestic economy that was largely ignored by international firms. It would, however, cause complications for companies in developed economies that have been profiting from grey market cross-border trade with China.
The business model for such firms was simply to let overseas Chinese buy products off the shelf in Europe, Australia, Japan, Korea and the US and ship the goods back to China using personal networks loosely organized through WeChat. As it becomes a net-importer and consumer of higher value-added goods, China is moving to regulate this trade.
China's second-wave trade and investment regime is developing a network of "free trade zones" with an explicit plan to attract inward manufacturers for domestic consumption. Although they may be 'free trade zones' by name, they are more accurately described as 'import-processing zones', and they represent an exchange between foreign manufactured goods and access to the world's largest consumer market, a reversal of the export-processing zones of the 1980s.
China's import-processing zones are the latest phase of a spatial trade game which started with the unequal ports treaties with the European industrializing powers.
The new free-trade zone plans also clearly intersect with wider domestic reforms for national e-commerce distribution systems, global e-trade institutional infrastructure, and the development of logistics firms capable of coping with the China-scale of cross-border point-to-point package delivery.
January's foreign trade development 13th Five-Year Plan sought to visualize the transition to an import-driven economy. It plans "five optimizations" for the Chinese economy: international market structure, domestic market structure, commodities structure, building internationally competitive firms, and trade innovation. It is worth noting that 'trade innovation' is mostly about drawing global commerce towards an international Chinese investment system, without truly opening China's consumer or capital markets.
In April, the locations of the third batch of import-processing free trade zone pilots were confirmed: Liaoning, Zhejiang, Henan, Hubei, Chongqing, Sichuan, and Shaanxi. These seven add to the initial pilot at Shanghai and the later addition of Guangdong, Tianjin and Fujian.
Trade giants Hangzhou and Qingdao will be the first cities to enact new regulations on cross-border e-commerce, expected to come into effect on 1 January 2018 with most items treated as duty-free personal goods. Hangzhou's cross-border e-commerce pilot is set to become the world's first "electronic world trade platform" experimental zone — this new e-commerce infrastructure will affect every part of the global supply chain.
The open market framing of these zones belies wider state industrial policy. As shown in the chart below, co-located with the zones are 18 "Torch" industrial research and development parks. (see chart).
Combining the locations of the import-processing zones, the industrial research Torch zones, and the government-administered New Areas paints a clear pattern of a state industrial policy. The free trade zones are far from a test-run for an eventual nationwide liberal trade environment — instead, each zone is to intersect with specific state industrial policy goals.
The import-processing zones all have explicit policy goals. For example, Liaoning aims to reform advanced manufacturing SOEs, while Zhejiang's role will be to establish international maritime logistics bases. Henan is slated to improve land and river logistics channels, with Hubei responsible for upgrading the Yangtze River Delta Economic Zone. Chongqing and Sichuan provide a nexus for integrating inland Belt and Road projects with the coastal Yangtze River Delta Economic Zone. Shaanxi is to explore modern agriculture and expand cooperation with countries along the Silk Road Economic Belt and 21st-century Maritime Silk Road.
China's Ministry of Commerce recently transmitted a revised version of the Foreign investment industries guidance catalog to the public, after drafting by the Central Party Leading Group on Deepening Reform. The catalog relaxes imports on industries in which China already has a technological advantage and where it hopes to attract cheaper inputs.
While ostensibly relaxing requirements for foreign firms and promising domestic and foreign firms equal representation under the Made in China 2025 industrial policy, in reality the government is hoping to push foreign investment away from more developed coastal consumer markets and towards central and western regions through the Advantageous industries for foreign direct investment in central and western regions policy document.
China importing more from the world and becoming a net importer is a good thing. Yet there are serious strings behind these innovations – what may look like an opening of the Chinese market will most certainly serve the state first.

Blind Trust was written by Peiri Ann. This post was organized by N K Author Services. I was given a copy in exchange for my honest book review. All opinions are my own.
Loving someone has never been so deadly. Valerie Harper has one assignment, one mission. Assassinate her mark and everyone he loves. But what happens when she finds that she loves him too? Her instructions are simple; do not fraternize with your target, observe at a distance, and never engage with the enemy. However, as things take an unexpected turn in Val's world, these simple instructions begin to change.
Refusing to be a puppet, Kyle Shultz walks away from his old life and settles into the college routine. But the life of a student is more difficult than he imagined. Making friends and attending parties are as foreign a concept as showing a target mercy.
The lines between the state of the job and the affairs of the heart are blurred as Valerie and Kyle's worlds collide. With a maze of enemies and hit lists to navigate, will these two young adversaries proceed wide-eyed and alone into the fray? Or will they blindly trust the feelings they can no longer ignore?
I struggle with the relationship between Kyle and Val... because how do you really have a relationship where trust isn't a given? Even if you get over the initial hurdle (more like a high pole jump of a hurdle) of that you're both assassins and have been assigned to kill each other (which you swear you're not going to do... but you're an assassin and you know the best assassins lie really well).. how do you ever fully believe. Wouldn't you always have a little niggle of non-trust? Wouldn't you always wonder if they were doing what they said they were, or weren't? I just think there would always be that little underlying doubt.
But it's love. And as readers you're in their heads.. and you just KNOW they need to stop questioning. You just KNOW they should jump in with both feet. You just KNOW that even with the little bit of doubt... Kyle and Val need each other. Or... as the reader... you hope the love will win out over the job.
While I did feel like I was constantly focusing on Kyle and Val... I really did enjoy the suspense of the story. What was really going on? Who was sending Kyle and Val their jobs? Forget about trusting each other... as an assassin could you ever trust anyone???? I couldn't stop reading because I just HAD TO KNOW where Kyle and Val would end up... and if it would be together.
Peiri Ann shares a love in the creation of new worlds, different creatures, and unwritten possibilities.

What is Asbestos Exposure?
Baron & BuddMesothelioma LawyerLegalMesothelioma Lawsuit: FAQsWhat is Asbestos Exposure?
Asbestos exposure occurs when people come into contact with asbestos fibers. The most common type of exposure to asbestos is from inhalation of white asbestos powder. Asbestos, according to the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), has caused more harm to public health than any other toxic substance. Nearly 28 million people were exposed through the workplace between 1940 and 1970, with millions of others suffering secondary exposure.
Inhalation of airborne asbestos fibers is the most common route of exposure, although ingestion is equally carcinogenic. Inhalation exposure to asbestos occurs when rigid asbestos particles become lodged in the respiratory tract. Once embedded in the soft tissue there, they are very difficult for the body to remove or break down.
Over time, these particles may form scar tissue, which can increase the chances of developing lung cancer, asbestosis, or mesothelioma. While there is no safe level of asbestos exposure, health risks increase at greater concentrations and durations of exposure.
Which Type of Asbestos are People Exposed to Most Often?
Chrysotile is a white, powdery form of asbestos that accounted for up to 95% of all asbestos use between 1940 and 1970 and is responsible for the greatest number of associated health problems. Millions of Americans have been exposed to asbestos in both occupational settings and within residences due to airborne asbestos fibers carried home on the clothing and hair of workers.
What are the Physical Effects of Asbestos Exposure?
Because airborne asbestos particles are microscopic, most people who were exposed were unaware that they were breathing these toxic fibers. Once inhaled, the particles lodge within the tissues of the respiratory tract and accumulate over time. Due to their rigid properties, they are very difficult to break down by normal metabolic processes. As a result, inflammation and/or scarring of tissues is likely to develop and may lead to an asbestos related disease later in life.
Mesothelioma is a form of cancer which develops in the lining of the lungs and/or abdominal tissues and is associated strictly with exposure to asbestos. The chances of developing lung cancer are increased in those who have been exposed to asbestos, particularly when those same individuals have smoked cigarettes. Asbestosis is a disorder within the lungs that leads to shortness of breath, coughing and other respiratory problems and may eventually develop into a more serious disorder.
Is There a Safe Level of Exposure to Asbestos?
While there is no safe level of exposure to asbestos, the health hazards increase with exposure to greater concentrations of asbestos over a longer duration of time. Asbestos reached its peak level of use between 1940 and 1970, during which time nearly 28 million Americans were exposed to the fibers in an occupational setting. The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) claims that asbestos fibers have been more damaging to public health than any other material in history.
Sadly, many of the manufacturers and organizations who added asbestos to as many as 3000 different consumer products were aware of the dangers yet continued utilizing the substance for decades as a result of greed and lack of concern for human lives. Governmental regulations and litigation have reduced the number of people who are exposed to asbestos each year, although the risk continues for workers in certain industries.
Secondary Exposure Impacted Women and Children
Before governmental regulations were in place, asbestos was handled haphazardly in most situations and workers were not required to remove their asbestos covered clothing before leaving the workplace. As a result, millions of additional Americans, mainly women and children, were secondarily exposed to asbestos fibers when their husband or father returned home.
Women who washed clothing in small, poorly ventilated laundry rooms on a nearly daily basis may be at the greatest risk of developing an asbestos related disease, particularly because their smaller lung capacities make them more susceptible to these types of illnesses. Children who greeted their fathers with hugs were also vulnerable, in part due to their extremely small lung volumes.
Chrysotile Comprised the Majority of Asbestos Usage
Six different types of naturally occurring asbestos exist, yet the white, powdery form known as chrysotile comprised as much as 95 percent of all asbestos usage within the nation. Although this is not inherently the most dangerous form of asbestos, its widespread use has been and remains responsible for the greatest amount of exposure in both past and present situations.
Veterans who served in the Navy during WWII or the Korean War represent the group of individuals suffering from the greatest number of asbestos related disorders, although workers employed in nearly any manufacturing industry in the mid twentieth century were also likely exposed. Some workers continue to be at risk today, as asbestos containing materials remain in countless numbers of older homes, commercial buildings and industrial facilities.
