According to this article on Bordeaux Tendances, on 10 March, around 8 pm, a fire broke out on board the Italian merchant ship Grande America travelling from Hamburg to Casablanca. At that time it was positioned 263 kilometres in the south-west of the Pointe de Penmarc’h in South Finistère. The fire was initially controlled, however resumed shortly before midnight. The vessel has on board containers of which 45 are considered to be hazardous materials, hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid (of which have been partially destroyed during the fire).
Shortly before 2am, the ship was abandoned by its crew.
The complicated weather conditions then accelerated its sinking. The Grande America sank in the afternoon of Tuesday, March 12, 333 km from the French coast.
Since then, major efforts have been deployed to try to limit the risks of pollution. The maritime prefect said that “at present, the potential risk of pollution is mainly the 2200 tons of heavy fuel oil that are inside the vessel”. In addition “with westerly winds varying from west-southwest to west-northwest, the impacted area is predicted to be the coastal facade between the Charente-Maritime and Gironde within several days”.
For the time being, no pollution has been detected on the Gironde coasts. However, the maritime and Gironde prefectures are on the alert to mitigate any arrival of oil slick on the Atlantic coast. According to the prefecture of Gironde, “this monitoring is reinforced since the identification by aerial reconnaissance of a layer of hydrocarbons about 10 kilometres long and 1 kilometre wide formed at the height of the wreck of the ship. (…) According to these analyses, the coasts of Charente-Maritime and Gironde could be affected by the arrival of these pollutants within 3 to 4 days”.
It is difficult to know the impact of this situation for the moment, as the weather conditions are unstable at sea. The ocean is currently experiencing heavy seas with strong waves of 4 to 6 meters and a powerful wind of 39 to 49 km / h. Given the critical situation, the prefecture is currently on pre-alert, and the plan POLMAR (marine pollution plan) could be deployed to act quickly. The Argonaute, a ship specialising in the fight against pollution, arrived on Thursday with experts from the center of practical expertise in pollution control (Ceppol).
If the oil slick continues its progression, it could arrive on the Gironde and Charente coasts by Sunday or Monday. The prefectures are trying to prepare, both at sea and on land, by also organising beach collection kits.


text: The probabilistic guarded-command language (pGCL) contains both demonic and probabilistic non-determinism, which makes it suitable for reasoning about distributed random algorithms. Proofs are based on weakest precondition semantics, using an underlying logic of real- (rather than Boolean-)valued functions. We present a mechanization of the quantitative logic for pGCL using the HOL theorem prover, including a proof that all pGCL commands satisfy the new condition sublinearity, the quantitative generalization of conjunctivity for standard GCL. The mechanized theory also supports the creation of an automatic proof tool which takes as input an annotated pGCL program and its partial correctness specification, and derives from that a sufficient set of verification conditions. This is employed to verify the partial correctness of the probabilistic voting stage in Rabin's mutual-exclusion algorithm.

The present application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119 to U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/159,641 filed on Oct. 18, 1999, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference for all purposes.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention is directed to a system and a method for metrology of surface flatness and surface nanotopology of materials.
2. Description of Related Art
Numerous methods of measuring metrology of a surface are known. A common method is interferometry, which uses a reference beam and a target beam and the resulting interference pattern formed between the beams to determine the metrology. Another method is Hartmann wavefront sensing which determines the metrology through slope measurement indicative of wavefront error.
Both of these methods have related problems, including how to increase throughput, how to compensate for aberrations inherent in the system, and how to dynamically remove systematic tilt from the systems.
The present invention is therefore directed to metrology systems and methods which substantially overcomes one or more of the problems due to the limitations and disadvantages of the related art.
It is an object of the present invention to remove tilt from the measurements. It is another object of the present invention to remove optical aberrations of the system from the measurements. It is yet another object of the present invention to protect the elements in the system from damage. It is further another object of the present invention to increase throughput. It is another object of the present invention to increase accuracy, both during measurements and/or calibration.
At least one of the above and other objects may be realized by providing a metrology system including a pulsed light source, a mechanical assembly positioning a target relative to the pulsed light source, a wavefront sensor detecting light from the target to determine metrology of the target, and an optical assembly directing light from the pulsed light source to the target and from the target to the wavefront sensor.
The pulsed light source may output infrared radiation or ultraviolet radiation. When ultraviolet radiation is used, the wavefront sensor may include a Lumogen coating. The system may include a power monitor for the pulsed light source which dynamically monitors and adjusts power output by the pulsed light source. The system may include a spatial filter which spatially filters light output from the pulsed light source. The pulsed light source may output non-coherent light. The system may include a translation stage which continuously translates the target relative to the wavefront sensor.
At least one of the above and other objects may be realized by providing a metrology method including calibrating a system for measuring metrology of a target with a reference, measuring the metrology of the target, and using the calibrating to remove optical aberrations of the system from the measuring.
The calibrating may be performed before each measuring. When the measuring includes a plurality of frames, the calibrating may be performed between at least one adjacent pair of the plurality of frames. The calibrating may include acquiring multiple frames.
At least one of the above and other objects may be realized by providing a metrology system including a light source, a mechanical assembly positioning a target relative to the light source, a wavefront sensor detecting light from the target to determine metrology of the target, an optical assembly directing light from the light source to the target and from the target to the wavefront sensor, and a dynamic range filter between the target and the wavefront sensor which prevents damage to the wavefront sensor.
The wavefront sensor may include a processor performing at least one of a stitching algorithm, a centroid algorithm, look-up tables, and data pipelining. The optical assembly delivering light to and from the target may be shielded from the wavefront sensor. The wavefront sensor may measure wavefronts from the target at different wavelengths.
At least one of the above and other objects may be realized by providing a metrology system including a light source, a mechanical assembly positioning a target relative to the light source, a wavefront sensor detecting light from the target to determine metrology of the target, and an optical assembly directing light from the light source to the target and from the target to the wavefront sensor. The optical assembly includes a position sensor which detects incoming tilt from the light source and an optical steering mirror which directs light onto the target, the position sensor controlling the optical steering mirror to dynamically remove tilt.
At least one of the above and other objects may be realized by providing a metrology method including positioning a target relative to incoming light, positioning a detector relative to the target, directing light from the light source to the target and from the target to the detector, detecting an incoming tilt from the incoming light, adjusting the directing of the incoming light onto the target in accordance with the incoming tilt, and determining metrology of the target from light received by the detector.
These and other objects of the present invention will become more readily apparent from the detailed description given hereinafter. However, it should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating the preferred embodiments of the invention, are given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from this detailed description.
The foregoing and other objects, aspects and advantages will be described with reference to the drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is an elevational perspective view of the system of the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a top view of the system shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is an elevational perspective view of the system of FIG. 1 with a cover thereon;
FIG. 4 is an elevational perspective view of the system of FIG. 1 mounted in a rack;
FIG. 5A is a perspective elevational schematic of the optical subsystem of FIG. 1; and
FIG. 5B is a top schematic of the optical subsystem of FIG. 1.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the system includes an optical/mechanical assembly 1, a light source 6, and translation stages 7. The optical/mechanical assembly 1 includes a mounting apparatus 2, a wavefront sensor 3, an optical steering mirror 4, a dynamic range filter 8, a spatial filter 9 and a position sensor 10.
The mounting apparatus 2 controls the angular translation in two axes relative to the sensing plane of the wavefront sensor. The mounting apparatus 2 provides translation in the tip and tilt axis without creating the need to adjust the other axis. The wavefront sensor 3 reconstructs the wavefront, and is preferably a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor. Examples of suitable sensors are disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,936,720 entitled “Beam Characterization by Wavefront Sensor”, U.S. application Ser. No. 9/244,860 now U.S. Pat. No. 6,052,180 entitled “Apparatus and Method for Characterizing Pulsed Light Beams” and U.S. application Ser. No. 09/340,502 now U.S. Pat. No. 6,184,974 entitled “Apparatus and Method for Evaluating a Target Larger than a Measuring Aperture of a Sensor”, all of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety for all purposes. The wavefront sensor 3 may be mounted to remove tilt. When the light is in the ultraviolet range, a Lumogen coating may be provided on the wavefront sensor 3 to increase the signal return.
The dynamic range filter 8 filters out light that may create interference due to a signal which exceeds the dynamic ranged of the wavefront sensor 3. By preventing propagation of that light to the wavefront sensor 3, resulting data degradation is avoided.
The optical steering mirror 4 provides dynamic adjustment of tilt contained in the optical signal. This tilt may be induced by inaccuracies in the mechanical translation components and should not be included in the measurement. In a preferred embodiment, adjustment of the optical steering mirror includes use of piezoelectric translation devices. The position sensor 10 provides rapid feedback and control to the optical steering mirror 4 for dynamic removal of tilt.
The light source 6 may be coherent or incoherent, pulsed or continuous wave, provided by a fiber delivery/injection or propagated by other means. In the configuration shown in FIG. 1, the light source is a pulsed laser positioned below the optical/mechanical assembly 1 and is directed up to the optical/mechanical assembly 1. Power of the light source may be dynamically measured and adjusted for consistent measurements. More than one wavelength may be used for the measurement. The wavelengths are preferably in the ultraviolet range, the visible range or the infrared range. Use of shorter wavelengths may increase the accuracy of the measurements.
The spatial filter 9 is used to provide a known and controlled reference source of light when using light which is not delivered via a fiber. For example, the spatial filter 9 may be used to provide a spherical wavefront.
Translation stages 7 provide displacement of a target to be measured. A target will be placed below the optical steering mirror 4 and the optical steering mirror 4 also returns the light from the target to the wavefront sensor 3. The translation is used to locate different sectional areas of the target to be measured using the optical/mechanical assembly 1. The translation may occur incrementally or continuously. In the configuration shown, the translation stages 7 provide controlled motion in two axes of the material or target to be examined. These stages secure the material, translate incrementally or continuously along one axis and may step along a second axis to a new zone for measurement by the first axis translation. The translation stages 7 may also allow for adjustment along the z-axis to accommodate any needed changes in focus on the target during or before measurement thereof.
As shown in FIG. 3, the system also preferably includes an optical assembly cover 5, which prevents stray light from interfering with the optical processing assemblies and excludes potential interference of the wavefront sensor electrical and heat generation. As shown in FIG. 4, the system as shown in FIG. 3 may be provided on a rack system to facilitate movement thereof.
Details of the optical processing assembly are shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B. Input light is collimated by a lens L1. A mirror M1 directs the light to a beam splitter BS1. BS1 splits off a portion of the beam and directs it to a lens L2 which focuses the light onto the position sensor 10. The remaining light passed by BS1 is directed by a mirror M2 through a beam splitter BS2 onto the optical steering mirror 4 which directs the light onto the target. Light reflected from the target is directed by the optical steering mirror 4 back to the beam splitter BS2 where the light is now reflected onto lenses L3, L4 providing collimation and focusing to the light. A mirror M3 directs the light to lenses L6, L7 which provide the light beam from the target onto the wavefront sensor 3. Since the optical steering mirror 4 is above the target, the target cannot be seen in FIG. 5B. By using an optical table as shown in FIG. 1, the multiple optical elements may be simply aligned with one another.
Initial operation of the system includes moving a reference surface into position as the target. An image is acquired using this surface throughout the entire optical assembly, thus creating a measurement reference which includes any potential aberrations in the optical assembly. The reference measurement is then used during the dynamic data acquisition to remove any aberrations of the optical system. The reference measurement may include the acquisition of multiple frames. The ability to create this reference prior to each measurement sequence provides increased accuracy in the resulting measurements. The reference may also be introduced during the measurement cycle to increase measurement accuracy and eliminate errors due to temperature, electronic or other drift.
Then the translation stages 7 are used to provide the target to be measured in the field of view of the system. The target is then exposed to the light source and the resulting optical signal is received by the wavefront sensor 3. When using a pulsed light source, the target may be translated by one axis continuously while the light source is pulsed, thus freezing the image for the sensor. This process allows for the highest throughput as well as the ability to eliminate potential errors due to distortions caused by turbulence, vibrance, etc. Alternatively or additionally, multiple frames may be acquired of the same area to compensate for these potential distortion errors.
The wavefront sensor 3 measures the slope of the optical wavefront across the area of the target in the field of view of the system. The slope is then integrated and pieced together with its neighboring subapertures, as set forth in the above noted U.S. application Ser. No. 09/340,502, to provide the surface information associated with the target. A number of conventional processing algorithms may be used for acquiring this information and converting it into useful data. This information may be integrated with neighboring field to create a complete measurement of a large target. These algorithms may be accomplished in a number of digital and analog processes, including stitching, centroiding techniques, and look-up tables. In this example, this processing is to be performed via general purpose processors which process the data as the next measurement is being acquired. Data pipelining may also be used to increase throughput.
While the present invention is described herein with reference to illustrative embodiments for particular applications, it should be understood that the present invention is not limited thereto. Those having ordinary skill in the art and access to the teachings provided herein will recognize additional modifications, applications, and embodiments within the scope thereof and additional fields in which the invention would be of significant utility without undue experimentation. Thus, the scope of the invention should be determined by the appended claims and their legal equivalents, rather than by the examples given.

Whether you’re looking to spice things up or just looking for a new twist on a classic cocktail, this Basil Mojito with Candied Jalapenos is a fun and easy recipe.
Thank you Rio Luna Organic Peppers for sponsoring this post. Rio Luna Organic Peppers are certified organic, non-GMO, fat free, cholesterol free, low calorie and Kosher. For flavorful and spicy recipe ideas follow Rio Luna on Facebook and Instagram.
Grab your shades and let’s imagine for a moment we are walking through the streets of Havana. There’s the bustle of people working, kids playing soccer barefoot and giggling on the corner square, laundry is hanging from windows above shops to dry. There’s a flower cart and fruit cart rolling down the street for purchase and a few cars, hoods popped, awaiting repairs, lined up in a rainbow of classic pastels along the curb.
There’s a corner bar, with records piled high and a box fan moving air through the tight space inviting you in for a signature cocktail….
My memories of Havana are wrapped in a cloak of inspiration from classic literature and island culture and the realism the crumbling old streets expose. It’s stunning and captivating. Just like my tourguides.
And in addition to having beautiful smiles to greet you with, the Cubans make a damn fine cocktail for a thirsty traveler.
If you are dreaming of celebrating the hot nights with a perfect Cuban libation, look no further than the mojito.
What’s in a Mojito
A classic Mojito is an uncomplicated cocktail with only 5 ingredients.
- Simple Syrup
- Lime Juice
It’s a perfect crisp and refreshing cocktail, especially if you happen to be sitting beachside on a sunny day.
Created in Cuba, the drink has roots back as far as the 16th century. It is said that somewhere between a failed invasion of Cuba and the sugarcane drink of the slave workers in the fields may have inspired the ingredients in the early stages of the cocktails birth and the rise of the rum industry in the 1800s brings it to its full glory.
Jump to modern day, rooftop sitting in Cuba is still the perfect place to enjoy a mojito in the humid air as the sun fades cotton candy pink. There’s nothing quite like it.
At home, when I am feeling a little Hemmingway and wanting to make things sweet and spicy, going through my memories of traveling through Cuba, I create my own classic Cuba cocktails.
Crafting a Simple Syrup
One of the key ingredients to a mojito is sugar. Using a simple syrup to sweeten cocktails is an age-old trick and a simple recipe to create and store at home for your own uses.
Simple syrups are a 1:1 ratio of sugar to water. Simply heating the mix over low heat and dissolving the sugar is all it takes. You can dilute the ratio if desired, and I often do to a 2:1 water to sugar syrup if you are looking to cut the sweet a bit.
From there, you can infuse a variety of flavors. From herbs of any sort to vanilla bean pods or even candies, simple syrups concentrate the additional flavors and make them perfect for adding to cocktails or other sweets needing a bit of a bonus.
Basil Mojitos with Quick Candied Jalapenos
I love a balanced cocktail that doesn’t feel like fruit juice, but hits multiple flavor notes, sour, sweet and even the burn from a little spice. With that in mind, I immediately thought of canned jalapenos. And a crisp infusion.
To create this one, I used white coconut rum from the islands, infused the heat from the jalapenos into a simple syrup and added a pop of freshness with crisp basil leaves.
Inspired by a shipment of Rio Luna jalapeno peppers, I knew I wanted to candy them and infuse them for a spicy sweet cocktail. The peppers are organic, GMO-free, and packed to add a kick of spice to any meal! On top of it, Rio Luna is working with it’s produces to cultivate sustainability practices such as drip irrigation, recycling initiatives, and crop rotation. Knowing that there are canned products that I can stock up on for my recipes that also are working to help our foodways makes my job easier (and recipes tasty!)

I paint abstract mystery.
I may understand the beginning of a work, but the end is often unknown. This, for me, is a personal discovery.
One can plan the colors, choose the size of canvas, hope the flow of ink provides focus, shape, and balance with the use of those colors. Still the completion has been kept hidden until, after much contemplated study with additional work, the finished piece is no longer a mystery. It is my magic moment of creating.
I love this process of defined abstract painting. It brings joy and satisfaction to all aspects of my inner being.

- As the health responses to the pandemic are strengthened, there is a tangible shift in the erstwhile focus of apps and hardware from lifestyle enhancement to medical and emergency care.
- This may be possible with new innovations in hardware and software such as sensors and other potentially life-saving functionalities.
- It can safely be said that in the run-up to the future, holistic technology and data-driven overhaul of present-day digital tools is in the offering, allowing patients to have greater control over their health and medical outcomes.

Woburn Weekly Budget - September 25, 1862
September 25, 1862
My last letter dated June 25, and having been silent so long I had no thought of continuing the series. Since reaching Woburn, however, I have been solicited to write out an account of my adventures in Dixie since the above named date and have concluded to do so. The letters will appear from week to week, for the present.
About two o'clock on the morning of the 26th, we were ordered under arms and remained so until daylight. The order then came for us to go on picket, and the regiment started off. After proceeding a short distance the order was countermanded, and they returned to camp. The duty required was guarding the telegraph so that a small detail from each company was sufficent. The detail was made, the men started off, the regiment settled down to the routine of camp life. On Thursday Cos. A, F, D, and I, were detailed for picket near the pontoon-bridge across the Chickahominy, and went out early in the morning. Having been under medical treatment for several days, I did not accompany them. Capt. Simonds and three men who went on picket the day previous also remained in camp.
About noon orders came for the regiment to fall in. The acting orderly sergeant then informed us that the surgeon had reported me for duty, and that with the other men just mentioned, we were ordered to report ourselves to Co. C, Capt. Burt. the regiment was soon inits place in the brigade, and marching up the Hanover road. We made a long halt where the Mechainicsville road crosses the one on which we were travelling, which is about three miles from our camp. About 3 o'clock we moved half a mile further up the road, and took a position in a wood a little way from the road. Firing began to be heard further up the road and also on our left in the direction of Mechanicsville, and we learned that Jackson had reinforced the rebels, and our forces at that place had been attacked. We remained here a short time, and then returned to the woods where we first halted. Here the brigade was formed, the 22d on the right, and marched through the woods to the open field beyond, on the Mechanicsville road. The rebels were pouring shot and shell into this field as if they expected it was full of Yankees, but we crossed it in safety and took our appointed place near the fence which bounded the field, where we could if needed suport any of the regiments that were skirmishing in the wood. While there a conical shell killed a member of Co. K, and took the legs off three members of Co. H. The wounded men were taken off the field, but they died before morning. Col. Gove then moved the regiment further to the right out of range. The firing continued until long after dark, and was the heaviest cannonading I ever heard. There was a continuous roar of artillery drowning the sound of muskets, making the engagement appear more like a bombardment then a battle. About nine o'clock in the evening the firing ceased, and our regiment marched back to the road. Co. C was then sent out again into the field and posted pickets. We stood at our posts without relief until daylight, when we were called in, and the regiment returned to camp.
22d Regt. Mass. Vols. at Gaines Mill
Arrived in camp we were ordered to pack knapsacks which we did, the firing heard from Mechanicsville, sounding each moment nearer, hastening our movements. The wagons, heavily laden, went the night before, and what remined in the quartermaster's department was destroyed. The whole force got safely over the little stream at Gaines Mill, and batteries were placed on the hill above to hold the rebels in check. We moved around the strip of woods on the border of the Gaines estate about a half a mile from the old mansion, halted and took up position. The strip of woods covered a steep hill, terminating at its base in a deep wide ditch. From this ditch on the other side a corresponding hill arose, cultivated with wheat and consequently bare of trees. I can only give with certainty our own position, as having been posted, it was impossible to leave the place to view the rest of the field. the 13th and 25th New York were ordered down to the edge of the ditch, where they felled large trees, and soon had a strong breastwork erected. Our regiment did the same at the top of the hill, each company cutting a large tree several feet in diameter, for a breastwork, the limbs being trimmed and placed so as to be a serious obstacle in climbing the logs from the outside. We were ordered to lie down behing the logs and not fire without orders. the firing all morning had been distant, but now the rebels had evidently got pretty near, for we had hardly finished our breastwork when they appeared on the opposite hill and opened fire on the New Yorkers. It as returned with great spirit, and three times the rebels repulsed with great loss. Once their color bearer was killed and the 13th secured the colors. But each time they were driven back they returned to fight with fresh men and increased number. Our men were impatient to take an active part in the engagement, but no orders were given, until finally the 13th came pouring over our breastwork saying "get up boys and give 'em some!" We did so, though with what effect we could not know, as the smoke was too thick to permit of our taking aim. The rebels, however, followed the Yorkers closely, and our fire msut have given them a momentary check, as they moved off to the left, and some appeared on our right flank, driving Co. A from its defences. I was loading my gun when I saw the rebels jumping over the other end of our log. The regiment flanked on both sides, had fallen back, a part of our company who had remained in their places until this moment, now followed suit. We had gone but a short distance when "Halt, 22d!" was shouted, and an attempt made to rally. Those whose guns were loaded, turned and fired. I capped mine, faced about, and just as I fired a rebel ball went into my left leg, grazing the shin bone, and coming out at the lower part of the calf, tearing the flesh out in its passage, making an ugly hole. I was knocked down by it, but tying my handkerchief around the wound, stopped the flow of blood. The balls were flying like rain, so I crawled over the hill to get out of range. A rebel soon came along (his regiment had passed over me), and pointed a pistol at me. I told him I was wounded and not to shoot. He demanded my gun, and as it was discharged I give it up. Then striking me on the head with his pistol, and saying "Lay down!" he left me.
On regaining consciousness I saw with dismay that the rebels were not only behind, but on both sides of us, and I then gave up hope of reaching my regiment. At that time I noticed that one of our batteries had made a stand on the opposite hill, and begun to pour a destructive fire of grape and cannister into the rebel ranks, which were approaching the spot where I lay. Finding myself in more danger then before, I crawled into a little gully cut in the soft soil by the rain, where I lay in safety. Four regiments, comprising Prior's Brigade, marched by where I lay. Next came a squad of rebels each with a piece of red card, six inches square, on his cap stating that the bearer was a member of the "Ambulance Corps, detailed to look after the wounded". One of these picked me up, and having assured me of my safety, started with several other prisoners, among whom were Dr. Seeley and his assistant P. DeSpelder, of the 16th Michigan for the hospital at young Gaines' house, a mile and a half distant. They took us back over the battle ground, now thickly strewn with the dead and dying who but an hour ago were full of life and hope. I recognized, Capt. Dunning of Co. D, who lay dead, and a rebel was just taking his pistols; Corp. F. W. Thompson, of our company was also dead. These were the only ones I saw as they hurried me along, though the loss in our regiment must have been great. On our way we passed rebel troops in great numbers and one of our guards said Jackson had brought 60,000 with him. We were so often told that no harm would come to us that we began to think that some wrong was feared by the guard, and strange as it may seem when we reached the field near our old camp where our troops were formeerly reviewed by General Prim, a rebel colonel, named Johnson, stopped and questioned us, and then made the following remarkable admission:
"Doctor, our men are much exasperated, and there are some desperate ones among them who are quite reckless when away from their officers, and you had better keep your party together, and get to the hospital as soon as possible where you will get good care. But if any of you should straggle off alone, and our boys see you, I could't answer for you ever seeing Richmond". With this he rode off, our guard again assuring us that no one should molest us while under their charge, and we continued our weary journey to the hospital.

Ask Linda #1409-How many penalties for multiple violations
We had a situation the other day that we have been discussing.
The ball for one of the guys in our group was located about 2 feet from the hole. As he approached his unmarked ball, he stumbled and hit his golf ball with his putter. His putter then hit the ball a second time, while it was moving, and then, to add aggravation to injury, the ball came back and bounced into his shoe.
Should he be assessed penalties for each of these violations?
Thanks in advance for your response.
Lou from Cincinnati, Ohio
One penalty will suffice. When one act results in one Rule being breached more than once, the player incurs a single penalty [Decision 1-4/12]. In this case, the player incurs a one-stroke penalty for causing his ball to move, and he must replace it [Rule 18-2 (i)].

When the Florida Legislature rejected $51 billion in federal funds to expand Medicaid, they not only shafted at many as 1.7 million Floridians who needed the medical help.
They have given Republicans an issue for the 2014 elections – unravel Obamacare.
The GOP has been looking for an issue, any issue, to run on in the off-year elections. I mean, they could run on “We'll make sure you got more guns in your house,” but that may not be a winner with everybody.
Ah, but now the magic word – Obamacare.
They could promise not to implement Obamacare, because some state legislatures are against it.
Of course, the needy folks in the country — of which there are countless millions — might not go for that issue, either.
But the Republicans need something to stop from becoming totally irrelevant. They are grasping, and not implementing Obamacare could be one of their straws.
Talk about desperation.

Glesk, Ivan and Prucnal, Paul R. (2003) New generation of all-optical devices for future communication networks. Proceedings of SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering, 5036. pp. 1-7. ISSN 1996-756XFull text not available in this repository. (Request a copy from the Strathclyde author)
The need to increase transmission capacity in communication networks is becoming very critical. This task can be accomplished by taking advantage of optical networks where techniques such as DWDM and OTDM are combined with the use of all-optical devices to help eliminate electronic bottlenecks. To fulfill these needs a new class of all-optical devices have been proposed and successfully demonstrated. By taking advantage of the nonlinear dynamics in semiconductor optical amplifiers in combination with optical interferometers new generation of ultrafast all-optical demultiplexers, data regenerators, wavelength, and data format converters have been developed.

I’ve been very fortunate enough to grow up with really good home cooked (filo) food and I didn’t realize it so much until I had to fend for myself getting older. I think swallowing pepper corns in adobo was a right of passage, eating fish, strange and stinky food was a norm eg. fish eyeballs was my fave (not so much now) and eating with our hands beyond toddler life was seriously okay. I’m grateful for that upbringing because it unites us and I love seeing my kids appreciate all the food I had growing up too.

She cooked one of my fave snacks today – banana spring rolls and we only have 2 more days left of good food until she leaves 🙁

Marion Sheriff's Office arrests man on the run with warrants from Indiana, Ohio
The Marion County Sheriff's Office has arrested a man after he was on the run from deputies for three hours on Monday.
According to a release from the Sheriff's Office, deputies spent three hours on Monday morning searching for David L. Wonderly of Celina, Ohio after it was confirmed he had warrants for his arrest out of Indiana and Ohio. During the search, deputy Keith Griffin was able to spot Wonderly running through an open field which led to deputies chasing him down and making the arrest.
Per the release, Wonderly was arrested around 10 a.m. on Monday and his charges are as followed:
- A felony charge of resisting arrest out of Indiana
- A bond revocation warrant through Mercer County, Ohio.
- Tampering with evidence.
- Aggravated possession of drugs.
Since being arrested, Wonderly has been transported to the Multi County Jail. He currently awaits a fugitive from justice warrant to be filed by the Marion County Prosecutor's Office, according to the release.
However, catching the suspect was just one part of the equation for the Sheriff's Office and the Ohio State Highway Patrol who also assisted with the arrest.
At around 7 a.m. on Monday, Marion Central Dispatch was called on a report of a suspicious person who had came to a resident's door without shoes on and appeared to be on drugs in the 5000 block of Tittlebaugh Road. Upon deputies being dispatched to the area, it was learned that Highway Patrol had towed an abandoned car with Indiana tags earlier that day.
Through questioning the suspect's girlfriend, deputies were able to discover that her boyfriend had been using her car, but she didn't know why he was in Marion at that time. According to the release, this led deputies to conduct a computer check where it was confirmed he had several warrants from Ohio and Indiana. Deputies and the Highway Patrol then set up a perimeter to search for Wonderly and eventually arrested him.
In the release, Marion Sheriff Matt Bayles thanked the Highway Patrol for their assistance in this case.
"This type of teamwork is how we take dangerous individuals off the streets in Marion County," he stated in the release.

Lava continued to circulation slowly from a volcano that erupted in Spain’s Canary Islands off northwest Africa, however the head of the regional authorities mentioned Monday that he anticipated no accidents to folks within the space after some 5,000 have been evacuated. Lava was flowing on the island of La Palma towards the ocean, transferring at 2,300 ft per hour, based on the Canary Islands Volcanology Institute.
The lava was transferring in two streams by means of a principally unpopulated space, Canary Islands authorities chief Ángel Víctor Torres informed SER radio. Some 20 remoted homes have been destroyed, SER reported.
“We’re not anticipating some other eruption,” Torres mentioned, including that air visitors within the space was not affected.
“There can be appreciable materials injury,” he mentioned. “We hope there will not be any private accidents.”
The eruption opened two fissures about 650 ft aside. Officers mentioned the lava streams would seemingly merge earlier than reaching the ocean.
The lava crept into the city of Los Llanos de Aridane, which lies near the volcano. City Mayor Noelia García mentioned folks had been evacuated from homes all the way in which all the way down to the shoreline.
Specialists mentioned the eruption might final for weeks and even months.
Individuals on La Palma largely stay from farming.
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez was resulting from go to the affected space Monday after canceling his journey to New York to attend the U.N. Normal Meeting.
The volcano erupted on Sunday after a weeklong buildup of seismic exercise. The Canary Islands Volcanology Institute reported the preliminary eruption close to the southern finish of the island, which noticed its final eruption in 1971.
Big pink plumes topped with black-and-white smoke shot out alongside the Cumbre Vieja volcanic ridge, which scientists had been carefully watching following the buildup of molten lava beneath the floor and days of small earthquakes.
Authorities had evacuated greater than 5,000 folks by Monday morning, however Spain’s Civil Guard mentioned the day gone by that it might must evacuate as much as 10,000 residents in complete.
La Palma, with a inhabitants of 85,000, is certainly one of eight volcanic islands in Spain’s Canary Islands archipelago off Africa’s western coast. At their nearest level, the islands are 60 miles from Morocco.
A 4.2-magnitude quake was recorded earlier than the volcanic eruption, which happened in an space often known as Cabeza de Vaca on the western slope because the ridge descends to the coast. Because the eruptions continued two open mouths belched vivid pink magma into the air that then flowed in tight streams down the mountain slope.
Carlota Martín was at an agricultural plot her household has in Todoque, simply downhill from the eruption website, when she heard an enormous explosion.
“After we noticed the column of smoke, we thought it couldn’t be actual, nevertheless it saved rising and we knew we needed to get out of there,” she informed The Related Press. “You allow, however you’re additionally wanting again since you need to see what is going to occur. No one is aware of how the lava flows will descend, however our plot and many homes within the space might be in the way in which.”
The final eruption on La Palma 50 years in the past lasted simply over three weeks. The final eruption on all of the Canary Islands occurred underwater off the coast of El Hierro island in 2011. It lasted 5 months.
Volcanologist Vicente Soler of Spain’s Larger Council mentioned “the fabric seems to be very fluid, the lava flows will attain the ocean in the end.” The scientific committee of the Volcano Danger Prevention Plan mentioned a part of the island’s southwest coast was in danger for landslides and rock falls.

Wireless access points are the critical link between users and their Wi-Fi. In today’s digitally driven learning environments, colleges must be able to deliver on the expectation that Wi-Fi will always be accessible — and reliable — to connect students, faculty and staff.
To ensure wireless APs are properly configured, secure and high-performing, IT departments have several factors to consider during installation. Here are four tips that all IT teams should incorporate into their AP “checklists” to make sure end users are satisfied with their Wi-Fi connection.
Develop Predictive Building Models
Campus facility infrastructures, old and new, are usually not conducive to high-density Wi-Fi, which can affect the strength of Wi-Fi signals. One solution is to use site survey tools, which can build predictive models of each space and guide AP placement. The tool allows users to add APs to a model and evaluate coverage based on the building materials and type of AP. This helps teams determine the exact location to place APs for optimal connectivity.
Evaluate Density, Capacity and Coverage
When placing APs, know your audience and how many devices your APs can handle. A first step is to evaluate density, capacity and coverage.
Density corresponds to how many user devices you can expect to be in a certain location at one time. This can vary from 300 devices in a lecture hall to a couple dozen devices in a residence hall room. Capacity refers to the type of bandwidth each location requires. Netflix in a residence hall will gobble more bandwidth than internet use in a classroom. Lastly, evaluate every location where coverage is needed, both indoors and outdoors, to ensure that all areas are covered.
Identify the Right Number of SSIDs
Determine the number of service set identifiers based on your student, faculty and staff needs. Our university has one SSID for 802.1X and another for visitors to keep guest traffic off the secure network. We do not have a captive portal for the guest SSID, which makes it easier to onboard visitors and some devices, as we support BYOD and Internet of Things applications. In addition, because St. Edward’s has satellite campuses around the world, we use eduroam, a secure network service that lets students log on to wireless using their local university credentials, wherever they are.
Optimize Channels to Minimize Interference
Channel optimization minimizes channel overlap for each AP using 2.4 and 5 gigahertz, and St. Edward’s provides them everywhere on our campus. It is critical to check all the channel and power levels — and adjust them as appropriate — to prevent a poor user experience. We create wireless building plans, where we visually add all the channels and power settings next to the AP to evaluate and ensure optimal Wi-Fi.

Harrison Osterfield is a fast-rising star who has conquered the modeling world and is slowly making his way up the stairs of Hollywood as an actor. The British performer is making his name known in Hollywood with every new role on film and television that he takes on. His striking blue eyes, sly smile, and confidence make him look destined to play all kinds of leading roles. Harrison has already found a place in several Hollywood blockbusters such as Spider-Man: Homecoming and Avengers: Infinity War in which he served as Tom Holland’s assistant. He has also landed several features on short films.
His most notable appearance till date is in the George Clooney series, Catch-22 which is available for streaming on Hulu. Harrison has studied hard, learning from some of the best teachers in the business, and refining his craft. Although he got his start in the modeling profession, he has since proven that he can handle more expressive roles in front of the camera. The Englishman has been involved in different productions of popular plays with theatre companies like Bullfrog Productions, Jolly Green Moment, and Dalmation Theatre. In addition, Harrison runs a YouTube channel where he has over 18,000 subscribers even though he rarely uploads new content on it.
Harrison Osterfield’s Bio (Age)
The Catch-22 actor was born on July 4, 1996, in Kent, England. He graduated from Caterham Boarding School located in Surrey. While there, Harrison was a member of his school’s drama club. He appeared in many school plays, so naturally, the experience led him to fall deeply in love with the art and inspired him to want to become a professional actor.
He secured a place at The BRIT School located in Croydon and it was here that he crossed paths with the actor Tom Holland and they became close friends. He then applied to the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art and was accepted into one of their foundational programs. At LAMDA, Harrison starred in a couple of stage plays and picked up important lessons that helped him become a better performer.
Harrison Osterfield also creates content for YouTube and has his own channel which he set up in October 2017. So far, the actor has only uploaded two videos on the platform but he already has thousands of subscribers. One of the videos features him making pancakes and slicing hot bread. He runs a comedy podcast with one of his friends, Greg Birks where they interview people from a fantasy town named Birksfield. The podcast is called Village People and it is steadily attracting audiences by the droves.
The British actor scored his first on-screen role in 2014, appearing in Trepidation, a short film. He followed this up with features in many other short form film projects. Harrison Osterfield was cast in Supply and Demand in 2015 playing the role of Edward Lucas and in Ethan Adler’s Guide to Homicide playing the eponymous character Ethan. Moving forward, he starred in One in a Million and Vent. He eventually made the pivot to mainstream Hollywood after his friend, was given the lead role in Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2017. Tom thought it would be a good idea for Harrison to serve as his assistant on the show so he put forward his name.
Harrison reprised his role as Tom’s Assistant on Avengers: Infinity War and was also given a small uncredited role as a bus passenger in the hit 2018 movie. He was cast to play the character Farnbranch Man in the sci-fi movie, Chaos Walking. He has also appeared in Catch-22, a Hulu miniseries directed by George Clooney, in which he plays a character named Snowden. His other movie appearances include roles in Art of Expression and Colours. If rumors are to be believed, Harrison is set to appear alongside his friend, Tom Holland in the movie Spider-Man: Far From Home, which is yet to be released.
Harrison Osterfield’s Family and Siblings
Moving on to his family life, Harrison Osterfield is the sort of person who prefers to keep details about his personal life private. However, he has revealed that his father’s name is Phil Osterfield, but his mother’s identity is still unknown. He has one sibling, a younger sister called Charlotte Sparrow whom he loves dearly. His family is quite close and they call each other special nicknames. At home, the actor is known as Hazza or Haz.

Soren Emil Carlsen (October 19, 1853 – January 2, 1932, New York City, U.S.)
Born in 1853 in Denmark, Soren Emil Carlsen was thought of as a gifted still life painter. Prior to his immigration to Chicago in 1872, he studied architecture. After arriving in Chicago, he worked with Laurits Bernhard Holst, a marine painter, before traveling to Paris to study for six months. Upon his return to America he had developed a simplified, yet moody style of still life painting that including a limited color palette and interesting textures. Most of his paintings centered on fish and game that had recently passed away, common household objects, and floral arrangements such as Blue and White Jar (1910).
His fish and game still lives are considered to be some of his best works due to the unique details they possessed. Although the arrangement in these paintings, such as Still Life (The White Rooster) (1892), appear to have done without much thought, they were actually very well planned. In addition, he was able to paint perfectly rendered fluffy feathers on game fowl and glistening scales on fish that appeared lifelike. His moody, yet relaxed paintings often inspired a sense of tranquility in anyone who viewed them. He passed away in 1932.

A new study published in Spine examines the risk factors for unplanned readmissions after elective posterior lumbar fusion surgery.
Study authors examined data for 2,301 patients who underwent posterior lumbar fusion from the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program. Study authors found:
1. Around 5.1 percent of the patients had unplanned readmissions, typically occurring 16 days after surgery. The authors studied readmissions from three to 30 days postoperatively.
2. The top independent predictors for unplanned readmissions within 30 days of surgery were:
• Bleeding disorders
• Insulin dependent diabetes
• Total length of stay greater than five days
3. The significant postoperative complications studied were wound complications, pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis/thrombophlebitis, sepsis and urinary tract infections.
4. Study authors concluded, "The unplanned readmission rate for patients undergoing PLF was low, but this study's findings of potentially modifiable risk factors suggest that substantial improvement with this quality metric is possible."


Taking the phrase “Everything Old is New Again” coupled with “Necessity is The Mother of Invention” - would lead to this “throwback” weapon, The Trench Catapult. Using Medieval technology (in part), The Trench Catapult was claimed to be an invention of several “unknown” British soldiers. Their device would catch on after they invented it in 1915 (with even American soldiers experimenting with it). The device was ideal for Trench Warfare (where space was at a premium). Made of wood, the device weighed around 50 pounds and was roughly 12 feet long. Placed inside the trench (at a traverse angle), heavy rubber bands would be wound with a hand crank (attached to a primitive pinion). By activating the crank a plate would be pulled down (under tension). Any type of standard Hand Grenade could be placed on the place. By activating the Grenade, (and triggering The Catapult), the Grenade would be thrown up and over the trench (in some cases up to 150 yards). Crude but incredibly effective. Unfortunately, The British Army did not pay attention to the invention. They were in use up to the last year of the War (1918). Building instructions exist – but to actual survivors are available.

Atomic Histories & Nuclear Testing
LANL’s Central Mission: Los Alamos Lab officials have recently claimed that LANL has moved away from primarily nuclear weapons to “national security”, but what truly remains as the Labs central mission? Here’s the answer from one of its own documents:
LANL’s “Central Mission”- Presented at: RPI Nuclear Data 2011 Symposium for Criticality Safety and Reactor Applications (PDF) 4/27/11
12 November 2019 for immediate release
Calling the National Nuclear Security Administration’s brazen disregard for a federal court’s September 24, 2019, ruling an “abuse of the judicial process,” the Oak Ridge Environmental Peace Alliance, Nuclear Watch New Mexico, and the Natural Resources Defense Council, along with four individual plaintiffs, returned to federal court in Knoxville, TN, today to file a rebuttal of the NNSA’s argument that the agency should be allowed to continue construction on a new nuclear weapons production plant “in the interim”—even while they are preparing the studies that will tell them whether the facilities can be made safe for workers and the public in the event of an earthquake.
“If it turns out that the old buildings can not be made safe enough to operate for 20-30 more years, their entire plan, and a couple billion taxpayer dollars, goes ‘poof!’” said OREPA coordinator Ralph Hutchison. “Because the current strategy is completely co-dependent. In order to meet their mission requirements, they need not only the new bomb plant, the Uranium Processing Facility, but also the old, unsafe buildings. Without the old buildings, it’s back to the drawing board.”
The latest filing by OREPA and its co-plaintiffs puts the matter back on US Chief Federal Judge Pamela Reeves’s desk.

Avoiding a Dangerous Food Enhancer – Lea Maloney, co-owner of D’Amore’s Pizza in Los Angeles, discusses with host Judy Greer the dangers of flavor enhancer monosodium glutamate, also known as MSG.
MSG enhances the flavor of foods – especially processed foods and meats. Manufacturers have found that it gets consumers hooked on their products, and it’s cheap.
But the side effects can be scary – the less sensitive can experience nausea and fatigue. In more extreme cases, MSG’s been linked as an aggravator for conditions including Alzheimer’s, Maloney says.
Maloney warns it’s not just in Chinese food but is actually “lurking” almost everywhere.
Canned soups, salad dressing, and crackers are top culprits. Red-flag ingredients include glutamate, textured protein, gelatin, and yeast extract.

Piercing connectors are widely used in power line erection. However, piercing connectors are susceptible to fatigue failure induced by wind load and multi-field coupling. Therefore, this study aims to predict the fatigue life of piercing connectors. First, the thermal-electrical-mechanical coupling model is created. Second, the electrical contact resistance (ECR) of piercing connectors is experimentally measured and converted into the heat generation rate (HGR) by the thermal equivalence method. Meanwhile, the breeze vibration load (BVL) of the conductor is calculated by the wind vibration theory. Then, the HGR and BVL are applied to perform the multi-field coupling calculation and fatigue life prediction. Finally, the effect of installation torque on the highest temperature, maximum stress, and fatigue life of piercing connectors is analyzed in detail. The results show that the ECR of piercing connectors decreases with the mounting torque, and ultimately tends to be stable. The highest temperature and maximum stress are located on the piercing blade, which is likely to become the failure origin. Within the allowable range of installation torque for piercing connectors, an optimal installation torque exists to minimize the maximum stress fluctuation and prolong the fatigue life.
