Last week I posted about Momma Kitty and the Letter Kittens who are all at our Vet’s place waiting to find their forever homes. THEIR TIME, UNFORTUNATELY, IS RUNNING OUT, so I am reposting their plea again for Opt to Adopt Day. Please share, share, share.
A mother cat had her kittens at our Vet’s office and we are unable to find homes for any of them, Time is running out to help them and our local shelter is overrun with cats and kittens and I know they would not have a good outcome if we cannot find them a home soon.
We have run adds in the newspaper and tried everything and we cannot seem to find even one home or interest. They were born April 21st and are fully vetted spayed/neutered, up to date on all shots and dewormed and deflead.
They have not left the wonderful care of the Vet’s office since they were born. They are highly socialized and beautiful and just need a warm loving home. We are truly struggling to find even one or two homes to save a few.
This is Momma Cat
The Letter Kittens
If you can help this sweet family please email terry (at) foreverhomewanted (dot) com
Remember, adopt cats, we deserve it!!!!! More Forever Homes More Often! Purrrrr! Zip! Later!
Will share again kittens – good luck!
I just scheduled a tweet for them in the morning, your time!
Paws crossed for them all. Have a terrific Tuesday.
Best wishes Molly
What beautiful kittens. We are sending lots of purrs that They find homes very soon.
what cutie pies… our paws are crossed for the family!
The mom and the kittens are all really cute. I am amazed that they are still waiting for adoption. Sharing.
I hope there is a way to help this mom and her letter kittens. I will share it on my dad’s fb, he has more followers than my momma :o)
I shared about the kittens and the Mom. We so hope that they find a home soon. They are so cute. Happy Tuesday to all of you.
Brian, can they stay where they are for now if someone contributes money to their care. Mom wants to bring Kittens B and C home with us, but, of course, Dad says we have a full house. But Mom would be willing to send some money to help care for them. Purrlease let us know. XO, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

Spayed/neutered and fully vetted and can’t find a home? They’ve got to find a home. All of them.
We are so upset to hear the Mom cat and her kittens are on death row. It’s something we don’t do here if they are healthy. Can you get someone to sponsor the kitten and Mom until they can be found homes. I am a sponsor with the Cats Protection League in the UK and I have a standing order to help keep one cage at their headquarters. This helps to cover for food, vets fees etc. Every few weeks I get a feed back with pictures of the cats that have passed through my cage and pictures of them… Read more »
OH we hope that Letter Family can find a place to shelter until their forever home finds them.
What beautiful Russian Blue kitties. I’ll share with the hope that they’ll find their someone.
They are so adorable too. i sure hope someone adopts them THIS WEEK!
OMD…what cuties. I sure hope they find some furever homes and SOON!

OH Brain I wish people would spay or neuter! Those babies are so wonderful they should have a good home!!
Tom had a restful week-end!!
Thanks for your visit!
They awe so gawjus. Weez shawed and will purray dat a home comes furward weally soon.
It is very sad that no homes have been forthcoming for that adorable family. I hope that soon changes.
I hope someone helps them. Shared.
Mama kitty and the little ones are just beautiful! we are praying that they will find homes. Our mom sure wishes we lived close. we’d be willing to sponsor or donate some green papers if that would help. purrs,
Pip, Smidgen, Minnie, Hollie
We sure hope they find homes asap.
The Florida Furkids
Oh…we are praying for Momma Kitty and the Letter Kittens for a miracle to save them and safe, loving forever homes to come forward for them.
Oh my gosh, mom would love to adopt a ready-made family. A sweet mom and three adorable kittens would make a wonderful addition to someone’s family. We hope they find homes soon….or maybe one home….that would be so amazing.

Equilibrium of the AMAT09
The best design for the AMAT09 has a rectangular main wing with span bm = 3.1m and constant chord cxm = 0.55 m. The lifting tail is also defined with a 33% moving flap. The equilibrium code provides the aircraft characteristics and a maximum takeoff mass M = 30 kg.
188.8.131.52 Airplane Aerodynamic Center and Static Margin
The equilibrium code calculates the lift and moment coefficients for the complete configuration at low incidences to be:
Cl (a, tt) = 3.912a + 0.626tt + 0.844
CM, o(a, tt) = -1.124a – 0.625tt – 0.138
where a is the geometric incidence (in radians, measured from the fuselage axis) and tt is the tail setting angle (in radians). CM, o is the aerodynamic moment about the origin of the coordinate system (located at the nose O). We will use this linear model, even for take-off conditions.
The center of gravity is located at xcg / lref = 0.227. Find the aerodynamic center and the static margin SM in % of lref.
184.108.40.206 Equilibrium Condition and Static Stability
Derive the moment coefficient at the center of gravity, CM, c.g.(a, tt) and write the condition for equilibrium. Verify your result as the rest depends on it. Is the equilibrium stable?
Solve for a(tt).
220.127.116.11 Top Speed
The top speed is obtained for tt = 7.6°. Find aeq at top speed.
Find the top speed, given that Aref = 2.225 m2, p = 1.2kg/m3 (Hint: use the equilibrium equation for horizontal flight).

Indiana hunters need to beware of possible deer diseases during this fall’s hunting season, according to a statement by the Indiana Department of Natural Resources.
This year, three diseases are of particular concern: epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD), bovine tuberculosis (bTB) and chronic wasting disease (CWD).
Cases of EHD have been detected in central and southern Indiana so far this year. EHD is transmitted to deer by biting midges and does not affect humans, and deer infected with the disease are safe to consume. However, the disease can substantially weaken the deer population. The bonus antlerless quota for several affected counties has been reduced to a maximum of two in order to safeguard the population. Learn more about EHD here.
bTB can affect cattle, deer and other mammals. Humans can also contract this bacterial disease. Currently, there are no known cases in Indiana’s deer population, but the DNR “recommends that hunters continue to inspect harvested deer for white or tan lesions on the internal organs or inner wall of the deer’s chest cavity.” The DNR requests that hunters contact an Indiana State Board of Animal Health veterinarian if lesions are discovered.
CWD is a fatal neurological disease that is found in white-tailed deer. It is transmitted by the bodily fluids of the deer, including feces, salvia, blood and urine. CWD has been found in Michigan, Illinois and Wisconsin but has not yet been detected in Indiana. Any hunters who hunt in these states should have their harvested deer tested for the disease. If the tests are positive, hunters are encouraged to follow proper disposal protocol by calling Indiana’s Deer Hotline at 812-334-3795.
Hunters are encouraged to wear disposable gloves, wash their hands, clean and disinfect instruments and cook meat thoroughly in order to avoid coming into contact with these diseases.

Last weekend I had the very good fortune to attend a truly marvelous, and aptly named, Epic Titanic Party.
Imagine an evening spent in a pleasant and tastefully decorated home with great company, good conversation, sparkling dresses, lots of champagne, and a mind-blowing and utterly delicious thirteen course dinner. After the dinner all the guests changed into appropriate 1912 lounge wear, and, well... lounged. And chatted. And drank more champagne and absinthe before tumbling into bed. (I am not too proud to admit that I didn't even get to a bed, but instead crashed right on the floor where I awoke the following morning.)
I can't begin to describe how perfect everything was and can never thank our host, Jenny-Rose, enough for all of her amazing effort in pulling it off so splendidly.
What I can somewhat describe, however, is my dress.
I've always really liked 1912 as a time period and welcomed the excuse to finally make a dress from this era. I liked nearly every extant dress or illustration or fashion print that I saw, but none of them jumped out as The Dress. More than any other dress though, I was inspired by this pink one belonging to Queen Maud:
In the end it was easier to not let myself be bound by trying to reproduce a garment, and I eventually simply bought fabric and then fit a design to the materials I had.
The embroidered fabric is an amazing vintage Dupatee which I found on ebay... a purple/burgandy crinkle silk chiffon with gold emboidery and sequins and tiny green and red glass beads. I then purchased a plain silk chiffon in a matching color, and layered them over a base of congac/paprika/burnt orange silk charmeuse. Burgandy velvet also decorates the skirt and is used for the bow on the front of the dress.
The charmeuse foundation of the dress is patterned from the 1910 dress in Janet Arnold, and the other layers were simply draped on top. I can't even begin to imagine trying to flat pattern these sorts of dresses...

Money, sex workers and an awful stench in Zurich
Compacted excrement, a poker game between transgender prostitutes, and a floating wheelchair all vie for attention at the jam-packed art biennial Manifesta 11

Europe and the “European project” are going to remain in the news for some time. Integration versus diversity, community versus edicts, free markets versus social support . . . It’s not always clear what the European project means, but it is important that the conversations, and the thinking, continue freely. The same could be said for Manifesta 11, the roving European biennial exhibition, which takes place this year in Zurich, a city in a country that’s geographically at the centre of Europe but not a member of the EU.
The exhibition is spread across two main venues with 30-plus satellites (which aren’t actually galleries), a floating pavilion-cum-cinema-cum-swimming pool-cum-bar, and a series of outdoor sculpture commissions. It’s hard to get a grasp of what is actually going on.
The central idea, and tagline for the exhibition, is “What people do for money”. In pursuit of this, artist and curator Christian Jankowski invited 30 artists to collaborate in what are called “joint ventures” with professionals: from the police to sex workers, dog groomers to chefs. The results of these projects are shown as artworks, films in the pavilion, and in some of the shops and offices where the collaborations took place. No wonder it feels confusing.
Some of the collaborations work better than others. Mike Bouchet, working with the Werdhölzi Wastewater Treatment Plant, has created The Zurich Load, an epic sculpture that consists of a day’s worth of human excrement, compressed into a grid of minimalist blocks. I’m reminded of the persuasive presence of Donald Judd’s pristine aluminium boxes and the calm poetry of Walter de Maria’s permanent SoHo installation, The New York Earth Room, until the pungent smell of the beautifully ordered waste, of beautifully ordered Zurich, drives me from the room. Outside, exhaling deeply, I realise the hidden ugliness behind everything human. It’s how we deal with that – face it or hide it – that matters.
Videos of the collaborations are shown at the beautifully named Pavilion of Reflections, a wooden structure designed by Tom Emerson, floating on Lake Zurich. It’s a great spot, and the combination of swimming pool and bar isn’t so outlandish when you take a walk round town; these are a local feature. Parked up beside the pavilion is a wheelchair on a raft. This is the work of ultra-famous and frequently shocking artist Maurizio Cattelan, who had announced in 2012 that he was giving up art, but evidently didn’t.
Cattelan teamed up with Paralympic athlete Edith Wolf-Hunkeler for a performance piece in which she appears to walk, like Jesus, on water – except she’s gliding in her wheelchair. The idea is gorgeous and the promotional photographs perfect. I searched for someone who had seen it for real, but to no avail. Stick around the pavilion, because you never know.
Another project that was perhaps better in concept than execution was Guillaume Bijl’s collaboration with dog stylist Jacqueline Meier. They set up Hundesalon Bobby on the premises of art gallery Greider Contemporary. So far so good, except a sign on the door reads “To the performances of Jacqueleine Meier you can’t bring your own dog for a haircut. Thank you for understanding.” Maybe it’s the rigid social codes of Zurich that make us want to react against the rules (see panel), but we immediately started to look around for someone else’s dog to bring.
The idea of comparing artists at work to workers at work loses its intensity after a while, and as with all exhibitions, what becomes more interesting are individual highlights rather than the overarching agenda of the curator.
The exhibitions in the main venues of the Löwenbräukunst and Helmhaus also include further artworks and objects, including, oddly, a copy of the kitschy Calendario Romano, which features monthly pictures of moody priests (buy yours online at calendarioromano.org). The best art here includes Teresa Margolles’s Poker de Damas (2016). A collaboration with sex worker Sonja Victoria Vera Bohórquez, it’s a video of a conversation over poker with transgender prostitutes, which is tender, unsettling and ultimately tragic.
At the other end of the spectrum, Jonathan Monk’s gold leaf This Painting Should Be Installed by an Accountant (2011-2016) is a perfect comment on the commodification of the art world. Fernando Sanchez Castillo’s short film Pegasus Dance: Choreography for Riot Trucks (2008), which sees a pair of water cannon trucks “flirting”, at first seems opportunistic, but let it grow on you and you start to find yourself realising the loneliness of hostile positions.
Peppered throughout the Löwenbräukunst are Pablo Helguera’s cartoons. The New York-based Mexican artist worked with weekend newspaper supplement Das Magazin, and created a series of drawings based on the pretensions and absurdities of the art world. They should be required reading at all art colleges.
Overall, Manifesta 11 is jam-packed but patchy. There’s a cacophony of work and information, so it can be hard to spend time with the ones that really sing. I could have given Jon Rafman’s Open Heart Warrior hours, were it not for the omnipresent press of more to see, not all of which was worth seeing. Rafman’s collaboration was with a health spa, but his immersive video piece was a world away from the sunlit forest and whale song staples of such places. Instead you lie on a reclining chair and are treated to a three-channel video of hideous apocalypse. “You wander in an endless fog . . . ” the voiceover goes. “It had to end and it did.”
What is the point of it all? Sometimes artists are simply asking us to pay attention to things that don’t seem important until we think about them. In Imbissy, American-born artist John Arnold is teamed up with a Michelin-starred chef, Fabian Spiquel of Maison Manesse. Their project recreates lavish embassy dinners from history in street food stops and kiosks.
Sounds like an arty excuse for a fancy dinner? Possibly, but watching the film, I learn about the 1897 visit of the king of Siam to the Grand Hotel Victoria in Bern. It was the first time any Thai royal had left their kingdom. The purpose was to stave off the threat of colonisation. They talked as well as ate, and the visit was a success. Thailand is the only country in that region never to have been under colonial rule. The project is about “alternative forms of diplomacy”, suggests the exhibition text. We need them now more than ever.

DADA 100: A CHARTER FOR RULE-BREAKERS
One hundred years ago, as the first World War raged across Europe, a group of artists set up the Cabaret Voltaire. The artists’ tavern is at Spiegelgasse 1, in Zurich’s old town, just down the road, though not deliberately, from Lenin’s apartment.
It became the base for Dada, an art movement whose sole intent seems to have been to break all the rules.
Hans Arp, Hugo Ball, Emmy Hemmings and Sophie Taeuber were joined over time by key figures including Marcel Duchamp and Francis Picabia, who has a major retrospective at the Kunsthaus Zürich, which will travel to Moma New York in November. James Joyce, who moved to Zurich in 1904, and who died there in 1941, is claimed as an ambassador of Dada.
As Zurich celebrates Dada 100, I wonder if, as a time traveller, I would have been frustrated or excited by them. They liked to run into bars, shriek “Dada” and run away again, and a recreated Dada poetry event left me both bored and bewildered.
On the other hand, a poster for The Blindman Ball (in aid of Duchamp’s Dada magazine) in New York in 1917 promises an event that’s “Ultra Bohemian, Pre-Historic [and] Post-Alcoholic”. What’s not to love?
The Cabaret Voltaire is still there, preserved as a bar and shop, and throughout Manifesta, you can drink Dada Sours, made with absinthe, and join the (temporary) Artists’ Guild. The price of membership? You simply have to give a performance.

Love makes us all feel amusing. That sense of giddy disorientation, unsinkable ecstasy and total obsession with a brand-new love can be so overwhelming, that it's tough to imagine it's all about emotion. While the outcomes barely make love less strange, they do start to shed light on why it can make individuals feel so amusing.
Helen Fisher, a research teacher of anthropology at Rutgers University, is amongst many scientists who believe the flush of a new love is improved by natural stimulants in the dopamine, brain and norepinphrine . "These are fundamental traits commonly associated with romantic love and with these natural stimulants," she states.
When they're under the influence, further research studies show that gushy romantic sensations may be similar to the highs drug addicts feel. Nora Volkow; the associate director for life sciences at Brookhaven National Laboratory in New York, has actually analysed the behaviours of druggie and people in love and discovered striking parallels. "When a person is passionately in love, it is incredibly interesting and provocative , and if the liked one is not there, upsetting," states Volkow. "When I see my drug addicted clients, it simply clicks with me how similar the dependency is. "The fact that drug addiction and passionate love may activate the same reactions, signals to Volkow that drug addiction is specifically dangerous because it take advantage of a natural feeling.
STIRRING THE BRAIN
She explains that current studies reveal the very same regions of the brain consisting of the frontal cortex which is activated when a drug addict is high and when someone in love is taking a read this article look at a image of a enjoyed one. Scientists at University College in London recently tape-recorded modifications in the brains of individuals who explained themselves as " genuinely and incredibly" in love. The scientists, Andreas Bartels and Semir Zeki utilized a practical magnetic resonance imager to scan the brains of 17 lovehappy volunteers. When the team showed volunteers images of their enthusiasts, the outcomes were significant. Four small locations of the brain illuminated immediately the exact same locations that have actually been revealed to react to euphoria-inducing drugs.
Old good friends, obviously, do not rather cause the very same stir. Fisher is conducting similar research studies and is scanning the brain activity of individuals freshly in love.
3 STAGES OF LOVE
As the majority of understand; however, the rush people feel from new love usually doesn't last permanently. And Fisher is likewise thinking about understanding the biological stimulants and anthropological descriptions for all stages of love.
She argues that there are 3 main stages to a love relationship: desire, romantic love and accessory. The first, she says, is "to get you looking for anything at all" and reference is driven by hormonal agents like testosterone.
The romantic love stage, which produces the brain chemical reactions described by the London scientists, serves to "force you to focus your breeding energy on a single person at a time."
And the fmal, less steamy stage of attachment is to ensure that any kids produced by a love match has moms and dads a minimum of through its early years.
Research study shows there might also be chemicals associated with feelings of accessory. The animals instantly formed attachments when scientists injected a natural chemical called oxytocin into the mice. When they injected chemicals that block the result of oxytocin, Fisher says; the mice " prevented their partners and imitated cads."
Recent studies have zeroed in on the chemistry of love, exposing exactly what kind of chemical and neurological activities take place at various phases of human and animal relationships.
Love is enhanced by natural stimulants to the dopamine, brain and noreinphrine .
Gushy romantic sensations just like the high of drug dependency.
Regions of the brain stirred when thinking about the liked one.
The stages of love, lust and accessory are impacted by body

Acoustic Enclosures | Hoods
EVEREST,leading manufacturer of Roots Blowers introduces acoustic enclosures for blowers. Everest acoustic enclosures are one of the most effective means for containment of excessive noise and for the insulation of the workers from the noise. Even where silencers are used, they can only treat the air borne noise. The treatment of the mechanical noise from the blower, motor, etc. is beyond the scope of silencers. Thus, in order to achieve low noise levels, that are often statutory requirements, Noise Enclosures / Acoustic Hoods are required.
Everest sound reduction enclosures have been designed for effective noise reduction of blowers placed inside. Everest’s economical design provides noise reduction of 12-25 dB(A) bringing down the total noise emitted to safe acceptable limits.
- Noise Control Noise level reduction to the tune of 25-30% is achieved
- Mobility The enclosures can be easily shifted or transported
- Ease of Maintenance Adequate space is available inside the canopy for easy maintenance
- Elimination of Civil Work Enclosures are suitable for open installation and hence require no separate building or shed.
- Design The sound reduction enclosures are specially designed to reduce noise pollution to suit the local environment. These are engineered to take care of air intake & outlet, resulting in a pleasing & attractive design
- Construction The robust body work of sound reduction enclosures is due to its construction from preformed heavy gauge sheet steel section and its reinforcement with fabricated superstructure. Rubber gaskets are provided to all doors and external joints to resist weathering. The bolted superstructure provides easy removal of panels for maintenance or servicing of blowers.
- Air Circulation Sufficient cooling air inlet acoustic louvers and exhaust fans are provided in the enclosure for efficient air circulation avoiding derating of the machine.
- Installation The sound reduction enclosures are preassembled on a support frame and can be easily & quickly assembled at site.

After delivering back to back outstanding movies director Sujoy Ghosh once again proved that he is one of the best director for thrillers. He once again asserted that he is master in making movies with female protagonist films which will do wonders at box office. His selection of subjects is brilliant and his execution on screen is exemplary and applaudable.
In fact this is not the sequel to his super hit film Kahaani in 2012 but the flavour of thrilling elements and vulnerable yet strong and stubborn ingredient maintained. Of course Sujoy took some cinematic liberty yet managed to present with pragmatic honesty. Keep aside all the directorial creativity but this movie stands in the best movie category which is made possible only because of Vidya Blalan. Fundamentally this movie belongs to her. It is her flawless and eminent performance took this movie to the superior zone. One after another movie she is inching towards the legendary status with her divergent maturity.
Particularly in this movie, her portrayal as Durga Rani Singh has perfect blend of vulnerability, passion and desperation for the justice which she expressed all these emotions effortlessly nice. Arjun Rampal luckily got an impressive role which is perfectly suitable to his body language. Perhaps this is one of best role in his entire career where his true acting capabilities could be judged. Almost every character in this film did fair justice.
If we get into story Vidya Sinha (Vidya Balan) with her paralysed small daughter living in a remote town of Chanda Nagar. One day when she returns from her office she finds her daughter is missing and she gets a phone call as her daughter is kidnapped by a man. In this panic when she gets out of her home she meets an accident and she will go on brief coma.
Then comes a new police inspector Indrajeet Singh( Arjun Rampal) who recognises her as Durga Rani Singh. He gets shocked when he sees her identity card with new name Vidya Sinha. One more shock to him again as police mail comes as she is a wanted criminal for the cases of kidnapping a girl and killing an old lady.
Inspector Indrajeet Singh finds a dairy in her house which gives him entire information about her. What exact happened and why she is living with a changed name and identity how she could get back her daughter you have to see on screen only. As it is a thriller flick it is unethical to reveal the original plot.
Jugal Hansaraj with negative role is impressive too. Naisha Khanna as Arjun Rampal has little space to do but looking nice and charming.
Music by Clinton Cerejo is largely impressive and sets the mood very well. Cinematography byTapan Basu is good when it comes to night shots.
Over all it is one of the best film in this year. Obviously your expectation are very high on this movie and certainly this movie stands more than your expectations. It has a stunning subject and that should be addressed more. Ultimately it is a super thriller flick with amazing performance of Vidya Balan. A must watch movie.

Nov. 3 (Bloomberg) -- Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. expects to post its first quarterly revenue next week after it agreed to license its stem cells to United Therapeutics Corp.
“We will begin to recognize revenue in the first fiscal quarter,” Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Zami Aberman said in a phone interview today. The company has enough cash to sustain it’s operations until 2014 at current expenditure levels, Aberman said.
United Therapeutics will develop a drug for pulmonary hypertension that will target a $3 billion market, Pluristem said in June. United Therapeutics will finance clinical studies and development costs of the treatment and may pay a total of $55 million to Haifa, Israel-based Pluristem, including an upfront payment of $7 million, the company said at the time.
The shares surged the most since April 5, jumping 10 percent to 9.88 shekels at the 4:30 p.m. close in Tel Aviv, after it said a clinical trial of its PLX-PAD cells to treat critical limb ischemia met all the protocol endpoints.

Massive stars whose mass exceed 10 times the solar mass evolve until the Fe-core is formed. Since the nuclear reactions in the Fe-core do not proceed further, the core begins to collapse, which leads to the catastrophic explosion. The nucleosynthesis during the evolutions and subsequent explosions is responsible for the heavy element enrichment in our galaxy. We calculate heavy element nucleosynthesis during the magneto-hydrodynamical (MHD) explosion of supernova of a massive star. We consistently calculate all stages of the collapse of the Fe-core, the core bounce, and the shock wave propagation. When the shock wave propagate in the oxygen-neon layers, the p-process nucleosynthesis should occur. Until now, the p-process has been studied with use of spherical explosion models where significant deficiencies in some light p-elements compared to solar ones have been found. We present nonspherical effects on the production of p-elements using adiabatic MHD explosion model.

SUMMER SHOWERS 1990 ILLUSTRATED (Part 08)
SSI - 05.06.2015
Bhagawan would often say, “My life is My Message.” A simple understanding of this declaration is that He lives every day the message He teaches. One other meaning one could draw is that, ‘His message is His life’! That is, the message that Bhagawan gave is the very life essence of His descent as an Avatar. And the fact that even today, we can go through the thousands of discourses He delivered is in itself a sign of His benediction upon us.
And among the discourses Baba delivered, those that He gave as part of the Summer Course series are even more special. This is because often these are a set of discourses centered around a specific theme, elaborated gradually. These are a treasure mine for any sincere spiritual seeker. So in our attempt to encourage more people to dwell deeply into these divine discourses, and contemplate on the message therein, we begin with prayers, a new series today.
In March 2013, with the same motive in mind we began a radio series entitled Shravanam Mananam Nididhyasanam. In this live show we began going through the 1990 Summer Course discourses, and needless to say we were overwhelmed by their profundity. So we now wish to offer these discourses to our readers, in this new format. We will try to pictorially depict the messages in these discourses in the form of a poster. These will be sent everyday to all our Sai Inspires subscribers as a link along with the Thought for the Day (If you are not a subscriber yet, please do subscribe). And after these posters are dispatched, they will be added to this page, on the right hand side. You can view, download and even print and use them if you so wish. Also given below is an abridged version of the discourse as published in the Summer Showers 1990 book.
We pray to Bhagawan to bless and guide this new endeavour of ours. And we invite you all to partake of and imbibe our Master’s ethereal message.
BUDDHI THE CHARIOTEER
Purity of mind is the pathway to progress,
You have been told previously that, according to the Upanishads, the human body is a chariot, the sense organs being the horses, with the mind as the reins. However beautiful the chariot may be, however dependable the horses, however firm and secure the reins, all of these are of no use if there is no charioteer. So also, however efficient the body, the senses and the mind may be, they serve no purpose in the absence of the charioteer, namely, buddhi (intellect). In life's journey, the intellect is of supreme importance. It is called nischayatmika buddhi, which means that the buddhi has the decision-making capacity. In daily life, many difficulties, problems and disturbances arise from time to time. For overcoming all these obstacles, buddhi is our mainstay. Without the intervention of the buddhi, none of our problems can be solved. "Samsayaatma vinasyathi", says the Gita, which means that a man filled with doubts will perish. Because the buddhi destroys doubts, the Gita affirms, "Buddhi grahayam athindriyam (buddhi can grasp that which is beyond the grasp of the sense organs)."
The Bhagavad Gita has laid down two banks to channalise its message. In the absence of these banks, the river of life will be subject to many problems, difficulties, and hazards. The two banks are symbolised by two mantras. One is: Sraddhavaan labhathe Jnanam (the man of faith acquires supreme wisdom). The other is: Samsayaatma vinasyathi (the one filled with doubts will perish). When the river of life flows in between these two banks of mantras, it will be blessed with peace and happiness and ultimately reach the sea of Divine Grace which is its goal.
"Antarvaani" (inner voice) is another name for the buddhi. Man is guided by this in- ner voice in the conduct of his life. Whenever problems arise, he awaits the directives of the inner voice. If satisfactory answers are not forthcoming from his inner voice, man will have no satisfaction in life. In other words, his satisfaction with the external world is a function of his satisfaction with his inner world, represented by the inner voice. Sometimes you hear people saying, "My conscience is not satisfied; or my conscience does not approve of this." Here conscience refers to the inner voice. So when you are exhorted to "Follow the Master," the Master stands for your conscience. Only when you follow the dictates of your conscience can you reach the right destination.
The name vijnana is also sometimes attributed to the buddhi. But it is not correct, because vijnana means the so-called scientific or mundane knowledge, which helps man to discover facts relating to the objective or phenomenal world, whereas buddhi is concerned with the subtle realm of the inner world. Hence, the role of the buddhi should be correctly understood.
Off and on, the buddhi tends to be covered by ahamkara (the ego sense). In this context, one should remember that the senses are subtler than the body, the mind is even more subtle than the senses, and the buddhi is far more subtle than the mind. The Atma, of course, is subtlest of all. In the light of this fact, when we say that ahamkara is able to envelop the buddhi, it means that ahamkara is subtler than the buddhi. Thus, ahamkara being extremely subtle, is all-pervasive and permeates all our actions. This is why man is unable to transcend ahamkara and experience the Atma (the Self).
Once, a king summoned an assembly of great scholars to his court. He posed the fol- lowing question before them. "You are all distinguished scholars who have mastered the scriptures. Can you tell me how many among you are capable of attaining liberation?" Despite all their academic learning, none of the pundits had the courage to stand up and give an affirmative answer. The whole assembly was stunned into silence. At that stage, an ordinary man from among the public got up and said boldly, (In Telugu), Nenu pothe povachchunu. His reply has two meanings: (i) "I may possibly go to moksha" and (ii) "If the I goes, one can attain liberation." The second meaning did not occur to any of the scholars. So, taking the first meaning only, all the pundits felt outraged by the audacity of that uneducated person, who appeared to be totally ignorant of the scriptures and had done no spiritual sadhana. When the scholars began murmuring among themselves, the king asked that ordinary-looking person, "On what grounds did you make your claim? It appears to be an affront to all the scholars present here." The man politely replied, "Your Excellency! Please forgive me. The meaning of my statement is that if the 'I' goes, liberation can be attained. I am sure no one has any objection to this statement of mine." So, the purpose of this story is that the ahamkara, which veils the buddhi and which leads one to the wrong identification of the body with the Self, should be removed before one can realise the Atma.
The buddhi is very close to the Atma and therefore well located to receive 90% of the Atmic energy and illumination. The mind derives its power from the buddhi, the senses from the mind, and the body from the senses. In this process of the flow of power from the Atma to the body in stages, there occurs a gradual quantitative and qualitative diminution of the power. Here is a simple illustration for the quantitative decrease. Suppose there is a dark room, which cannot directly receive sunlight. If you want to illuminate that room, you can do it by holding a mirror in the open vicinity and by directing the sun's rays reflected on the mirror towards the interior of the room. However, when compared to the direct rays of the sun, the reflected rays on the mirror are less powerful, and the reflected light in the room is much less powerful. Regarding the gradual deterioration in the quality, let us consider the example of a river. At the source of the springs that give rise to the river, the water will be pure and crystal clear. But as several rivulets and tributaries join its course, and as it wends its way through the countryside, the river gets more and more polluted as people begin making use of the water. Similarly, the purity of the Atma gets gradually contaminated as it passes through the buddhi, the mind, and the senses and finally reaches the body. Nevertheless, it is possible, through effort, to minimise this quantitative and qualitative deterioration, by sanctifying and purifying the Buddhi and by facilitating the direct influence of the buddhi on the body.
In the Taithiriya Upanishad, which is one of the important among the ten principal Upanishads, the buddhi is described as a bird. "Sraddha (faith)" is the head of the bird. Its right wing is "ritam" (the cosmic rhythm), and its left wing is "sathyam" (truth.) The main body of the bird is "Mahat Thathwa" (the Great Principle), its tail is called yoga. The buddhi, in its complete form, is thus composed of five constituents and is extraordinarily powerful.
Once, King Vikramaditya convened an assembly of great scholars and asked them for their opinion regarding which is the most important among the three, viz., sraddha, medha, and buddhi. The scholars came out with different answers. However, they finally expressed their consensus that medha (talent) was the most important. Disappointed with their conclusion, the king told the assembly, "Oh pundits! 'Aastha' means asakthi or sraddha (zeal and faith); 'swaastha' means sthiratva and firmness. Without asakthi and sthiratva, medha (talent) is useless. In other words, it would be futile on the part of man to depend only on his talents and cleverness for leading a purposeful life. He should develop faith and zeal together with steadiness and firm determination. Then only will he be able to accomplish great things in his life. Sraddha or faith is of paramount importance. Without sraddha, you can achieve nothing. If you have a small spark of fire, you can fan it and create a big blazing fire from out of it, provided you have sraddha. If you lack sraddha, you will allow even a blazing fire to die out. Similarly with faith, you can produce a mighty banyan tree from a minute seed. Today's man has sraddha no doubt, but only in securing the fruit and not in the labour required for getting it. He does not have the spirit of work in him. The advances in science and technology have made man a lover of comfort for ease with no interest in hard work. There is nothing wrong with science as such. It is the improper use of science that is leading man astray. What is needed today is to pay attention to love and spiritual advancement along with scientific progress. The difference between science and spirituality is brought out vividly, albeit succinctly, by the two simple equations:
Today, we are witnessing rapid and radical changes in almost every field of life—political, economic, social, scientific, etc. However, there is no mental ethical and spiritual transformation. This is because no effort is made to understand the nature and role of the human mind. The food consumed by man provides the source of origin, suste- nance and development of his mind. After digestion, the grossest part of the food is thrown out as excreta. The subtle part becomes blood and flesh, while the subtlest part assumes the form of the mind. So the nature of the mind depends on the quality and quantity of food consumed. While the gross body or the food sheath (annamaya kosa) is chiefly derived from food, the subtle part of the water we drink contributes to the life sheath (pranamaya kosa). The grosser part of the water goes out as urine. The food sheath and the life sheath provide the basis for the other three sheaths, namely, the manomaya kosa (the mental sheath), the vijnanamaya kosa (the intellectual sheath), and the anandamaya kosa (the bliss sheath). This shows the paramount importance of food and drink in moulding and developing the human personality.
Reference has been made earlier to the supreme need for ridding the buddhi of the ahamkara that often envelops it. You should understand the difference between ahamkara, the ego and the Atma (Self). ahamkara is the father of ahamkara, grandfather of the mind or thought, the great grandfather of vaak (speech). Thus, the ahamkara, the ahamkara, the mind (manas), and vaak are all members of the same family. Ahamkara is the one that comes and goes, whereas there is no such coming and going for the Atma. Usually, the Sanskrit word ahamkara is translated into English as 'ego'. Both these words are employed in common usage to mean selfesteem or pride born of delusion about one's wealth or scholarship etc. This is a wrong usage of the words. Their correct meaning is the mistaken identification of oneself with the body. All may not be proud of their wealth or knowledge, but everyone is a victim of ahamkara in the sense of considering oneself to be the body. It is this ahamkara that shrouds the buddhi and misleads it on the wrong path. Hence, if the buddhi is to develop sraddha, we should first eliminate ahamkara.
As mentioned earlier, ritam, is the right wing of the bird of buddhi. In Vedantic parlance ritam and sathyam have been used as synonyms. However, there is a difference between the two, sathyam means putting your words into action, and factually reporting in words what you have done. Ritam, on the other hand, has a wider connotation, namely, purity, harmony, and unity of the trikaranas (thought, word, and deed). We may also say that sathyam is concerned more with the external world, while ritam relates more to the internal world of mind and its modifications. Sathyam is said to transcend time—past, present, and future, while Atma transcends time and space.
Yoga is the tail of the buddhi-bird. This tail of yoga is needed to maintain the required balance between the two wings of sathyam and ritam, just as the tail of an aeroplane serves the purpose of balancing the two wings of the aircraft. Yoga as envisaged here should not be confused with asanas, physical exercises of various kinds. Yoga here means the control of the mind and senses.
Then there is the Mahat Thathwa, which is the body of the bird of buddhi. Mahat Thathwa signifies the realisation of the mahavakya 'Thath-thwam-asi —the great Upanishadic declaration That Thou Art.' In other words, it is experiencing one's real Self as Sath-chith-ananda. Buddhi should not therefore be confused with medha, which refers to the possession of worldly talents, intelligence, and cleverness etc., without having Self- knowledge. Thus buddhi consisting of sraddha, sathyam, ritam, Mahat Thathwam, and yoga may be considered as the resound, reflection, and reaction of the Atma. On the other hand, medha sakthi (the power of worldly knowledge) corresponds to maya sakthi (the divine power of delusion).
On Rama's return to Ayodhya after finishing His 14 years of exile in the forests, Kaikeyi, who felt penitent about this grievous wrong she had done to Rama, approached Him when He was alone and prayed, "My dear Rama, even though I knew about your divine nature, I caused you a lot of unnecessary hardship, blinded by narrow feeling of 'I' and 'mine'. Kindly give me some upadesh (spiritual instruction), so that I may be absolved of the heinous sin I have committed against such a noble person like yourself." In response to her request, Rama did not give her the upadesh directly but gave her some hints indirectly. This is characteristic of all Avatars from time immemorial. Avatars seldom give advice directly. Whatever they wish to communicate they convey more often by way of indirect suggestions and only rarely by the direct method of instruction. The reason for this is there is divinity inherent in every human being, which he can manifest spontaneously, if favourable conditions are provided, just as a viable seed will germinate and grow into a tree because of its inherent nature, if only suitable facilities are provided for the manifestation of its potentiality. Man should be enabled to correct himself by his own efforts, by merely giving timely suggestions, rather than by stultifying his freedom and dignity through directives imposed from without. In short, the best maxim for helping people either in worldly matters or in the spiritual field is 'Help them to help themselves' or 'Self-help is the best help.'
Following the same strategy, therefore, Sri Rama, in the present instance told, Kaikeyi, "Mother! Please take bath in the holy Sarayu river and come back for My upadesh. But while bathing in the Sarayu please observe what is going along the riverside." Kaikeyi went along with her retinue to the river and returned to Rama after bath. Rama asked her, "Mother! Now tell Me what you noticed on the banks of Sarayu." Kaikeyi replied that she saw a number of sheep and goats grazing the green grass on the banks, bleating "mae, mae," as usual, every now and then. Then Rama told her promptly that "mae, mae" was His upadesh for her. He disclosed to her that the bleating of the sheep and goats meant, "Who am I? Who am I?" He further remarked that when even sheep are concerned with the question of, "Who am I?" if a man does not concern himself with this question, he is worse than sheep.
Everyone should first seek to know the answer to the question, "Who am I?" Without knowing who you are, what is the use of trying to know everything about others? At birth you cried out "Koham (Who am I)?" You should not die with the same question on your lips. When you die, you should be able to assert cheerfully "Soham (I am That or He)". Then alone can you justify your birth as a man and enjoy the satisfaction of having fulfilled the purpose of human life. There is only one path to get rid of ahamkara, namely pursuing the Godly way of life. Whenever you feel the sense of ego, sit silently in a corner and observe what your breathing is telling you. It is declaring, "So...Ham". "So" while inhaling and "Ham" while exhaling. The two syllables "So" and "Ham", which to- gether constitute the word Soham convey the meaning: "I am Brahman." If you constantly meditate upon this, your ego-sense characterised by the idea: "I am the body," will cease to bother you. This "So-ham" mantra repeats itself in each of you 21,600 times per day. Thus "I am Brahman" is the message of your inner voice all the time. Ignoring this, however, everyone identifies himself with the temporary, artificial name given to the body. Thinking yourself to be Ramaiah, Krishnaiah, or Seenaiah (the names given to your body) however long you may engage yourself in spiritual practices, you will not achieve any progress. You will continue to be what you have been according to the name given to your body. "Soham" is the name with which you were born. That alone is your natural and permanent name. That indeed is your Reality or Truth. Realise it and experience Sath-chith-ananda. Krishna is known as Partha Sarathi (the Charioteer of Partha). Partha does not mean Arjuna alone. It applies to all children of prithvi (the earth). So, make Krishna your charioteer. As the buddhi is a reflection of the divine Atma, make use of it as the charioteer in your journey to realise the Atma. Also remember that for success in every endeavour, prema (universal love) is essential. The Lord is the embodiment of Love, the Sun of Truth. Therefore, through Love, seek to know your true Self with the help of the buddhi and purify your mind. This is what I expect of you.

The Celts, one of the most influential tribes to have dominated the European landscape, left behind an array of folk tales as their legacy. They originated as a group of tribes from Central Europe and soon migrated to other parts, spreading their traditions and customs.
The Celts were not a unified nation but were actually numerous tribal groups scattered across Europe. Nevertheless, their ancient cultures birthed mythological stories of heroism, mystery, magic, and romance.
Unfortunately, our knowledge of the Celtic gods is limited. The first oral traditions helped keep the accounts of Celtic mythological gods alive. And it was only in medieval times did Irish and Welsh monks create written records of the stories. But until then, some myths got lost in the sands of time.
What sets Celtic mythology apart from other known mythologies of the world is that most of their deities were linked to places instead of specific roles. The tribes had designated divinities who kept them safe and secure.
Where Did the Celts Originate?
In the 4th century B.C., a swarm of ancient Indo-European tribes crossed Eurasia. Not long after, the decline of the mighty Celts followed.
With the Roman empire presiding over the Western world, Celtic freedom in Gaul suffered greatly. Although, in Britain and Ireland, there was a more gradual deterioration of the cultures because of political suppression.
Primary sources of Celtic mythology come from architecture and literature. But many existing monuments were from the Roman period and carried influences from Roman culture. This led to problems in discerning Celtic and Roman motifs.
Moreover, the lack of literary texts from the inception of mythology made the Roman texts unreliable, mainly because they were adulterated with influences of Christianity in Ireland and Wales.
Major Celtic Mythology Gods
From the little information available, it is evident that the Celtic gods were omnipotent entities who appeared in many adventure-filled tales. In addition, each tribe had its god and goddess with roles within the mythology.
Here is a quick introduction to some of the significant Celtic mythology gods:
He was the crowned ruler of Annwn or the Celtic afterlife. Initially, this Welsh Underworld belonging to the Mabinogi was portrayed as an island, a kingdom sprawled in the depths of the sea, and literally an underground kingdom.
Arawn was known for his skills in sorcery and magic, especially shapeshifting. Moreover, he is associated with Pwyll, the Lord of Dyfed, whose ferocious dogs killed one of the Otherworld’s stags.
The etymological meaning of Arawn is believed to have links with the Hebrew name Aaron, meaning ‘exalted. And an alternative theory explains Arawn as a version of the Celtic god Arubianus. This is because it’s akin to each other’s names.
As soon as the influence of Christianity spread to these regions, it transformed the deities into evil characters. For example, Arawn was given titles like Lord of the Damned, emphasizing his negative traits.
The Celtic god was hailed as the keeper of the blessed Underworld. Thus, the realm has been associated with Arthurian Avalon or Isle of the Blessed.
Arawn was a fair and benevolent ruler who ruled the land and the hearts of his people too. What’s more, he was also known for being a talented magician who successfully switched places with Pwyll without anyone noticing. Not even his Queen!
In a terrifying battle with Gwydion, a master of magic and poetry, Arawn called upon the hounds of the Underworld and magically enhanced their abilities to fight. Though he lost the war, this particular instance is a testament to his powerful yielder of magic skills.
But the hounds were actually his companions for hunting expeditions. So our multi-talented Celtic god was an expert hunter, known to hunt game almost every day!
Arawn is related to the fall season marked by the baying hounds and cackling geese making their journey to the south for wintertime. Interestingly, fall heralded the end of the year with Samhain or modern-day Halloween. On this day, spirits would descend on earth and celebrate their ruler Arawn’s reign as the Lord of the Underworld.

His family life is mostly unknown except for the mention of an unnamed wife who loved Arawn dearly.
Badb, or the “Battle Crow,” was one of the three sisters who were together called Morrigan. She was a war goddess responsible for inciting terror and confusion on the battlefield. Badb was often famed for taking the shape of an old woman who brought death and destruction in Irish Mythology.
In modern Gaelic, Badb is defined as a crow. She has also been called the “battle crow” owing to her Morrigan origins as a war goddess.
Moreover, the name battle crow sounds similar to the Proto-Celtic word bodwa or ancient Germanic languages. It’s more or less like the Old Norse who have words like bodvar, meaning war.
Therefore, it is construed that Badb represents a feasting crown on a bloody battlefield.
Badb was a Celtic manifestation of fear, death, and panic on a battlefield. Due to her appearance as an old crone in most sources, it is believed that she was the oldest of the Morrigan sisters.
Even though most of her attributes have hints of terror, Badb is not associated with evil all the time. She is known to give positive prophecies as well.
Her pet animals were ravens and crows. Simultaneously, she corresponded to bean sidhe or a banshee mean fairy woman. And do not forget that banshee’s cries are an indicator of a significant death.
As mentioned, Badb was a third of the triple goddess Morrigan listed as Eriu, Banba, and Fodla. Her mother was the goddess of agriculture by the name of Ernmas. Some versions of her story include a father called Caitlin, a druid.
Some instances showed Badba as the wife of Formorian king, Tethra. But as the triple goddess, she was married to Dagda.
Brigid, or “The Exalted One,” was the Celtic mythology goddess of spring, life, and fertility. Poetry, invention, and passion were her domains. She was favored by all poets, often making her the muse of their poetic adventures.
Additionally, she was also known for her healing abilities. The first of February was celebrated as Imbolc to honor the goddess of spring.
Many wells and waterways of Ireland are dedicated to her as well.

The old Irish word, Brid, was anglicized to form Brigid. Brigid is also the origin of the name Bridget, rooted in the Proto-Celtic word Briganti or “The Exalted One.”
While her name might signify a link to sunlight and fire, it may be inspired by other dawn goddesses of Indo-European origin.
Further, she is also known as the Goddess of Wells. Many of Ireland’s waterways and wells are dedicated to the goddess.
Brigid’s powers are fraught with contradictions from healing and fertility to passionate fires and peaceful waters. Her influence ran through mothers and poets alike. In Ireland, shreds of evidence of her worship have been found in abundance.
A triple goddess, Brigid appears in different forms ranging from a mother to a beautiful maiden. Mostly, she dons a sunbeam cloak that highlights her fiery red hair.
Since Brigid served as a water goddess, her realm extended to rivers and wells. Brigid’s wells in Kildare and County Clare testaments her power and influence. The Kildare well is said to heal any ailments suffered by the mortal body. All in all, the flame of Ireland burns in devotion for this goddess.
On the other hand, the well in County Clare was built underneath a cemetery at a church.
Furthermore, the goddess’ main symbol is called Brigid’s Cross. The geometrically shaped cross is made of rush and grass, and you may find it hung on doors of houses across Ireland.
Brigid was the daughter of the Dagda, chief of Tuatha Dé Danann, and titled as the Great God. She also had several siblings from her father, including Aengus and Midir.
Although, the identity of her mother is often disputed. According to some texts, her mother was a significant river goddess called Danu. Danu was also associated as the mother-goddess of the Tuatha Dé Danann.
Her marriage to Bres, the High King of Tuatha Dé Danann, was no ordinary affair and resulted in having a son called Ruadán.
In other versions, she was the wife of Tuireann and gave birth to three sons. Later, the sons were responsible for defeating Cian, father of Lugh of the Long-Arm, and transforming Lugh into a pig.
Legends of Brigid
Celtic myths often showcased Brigid as a revered deity, elaborating on her many skills and powers. In these myths, strangers from far and wide would approach her and ask for blessings.
In addition, those with a pure heart were granted freedom from all their ailments and miseries. But those lacking such qualities were taught special lessons to live a better life.
“The Veiled One” was an enigmatic goddess who reigned over the winds and winter. She was portrayed as an old woman with a veiled face.
Cailleach’s character was interesting because of the multiple facets it took on. Her nature was both a creator and destroyer and was not limited to the generic evil or good. This duality made her a crowd favorite for different poets and authors.
Also known as the Queen of Winter, the intensity and duration of the winter season depended on her will.
In addition, she was a patron goddess of wolves.
Her domain stretched across Scotland, Ireland, and the Isle of Man.
Cailleach is a commonly used word in Scottish and Irish Gaelic, alluding to an “old hag.” The colloquial word was derived from an Old Gaelic term, Caillech, meaning “veiled one.”
She has been attributed with different names by various poets: Digdi, Milucra, Biróg (the one who saved Lugh of the Long-Arm when he was an infant), Buí, and Burach. Even so, her most notable name is Cailleach Bhéara, distinguishing her as the lady of winter.
Cailleach’s Myths and Legends
The myth about Cailleach collecting firewood in different forms has survived the test of time, remaining as one of the last myths related to the goddess. Apparently, Cailleach runs out of firewood for winter on the first of February.
The Manx tradition shows her transforming into a giant bird to collect firewood for the rest of winter. In Scotland and Ireland, she collects firewood as an old woman, true to her original appearance.
If the day is bright and sunny, the winters will last longer than when the day is stormy, which means she overslept.
The United States has its own version of this tradition known as Groundhog Day. However, they do not recognize Cailleach as a part of the ritual.
Not to forget, she has similarities with deities outside the Gaelic mythological realm. For instance, being the creator goddess, she resembles the Greek creator deity, Gaia, also known as the Earth Mother.
In Slavic mythology, Baba Yaga is an old woman leaping between mountains to cause hindrance to travelers. She is often related to Cailleach as well.
Other Important Deities in Celtic Mythology
The pantheon of gods in Celtic mythology does not end here.
1. The Dagda
He was the leader of Tuatha Dé Danann, a group of supernatural entities who could converse with the mortal realm. The Dagda was considered the leader of the Celtic pantheon.
One of the last to be added to the Celtic mythology gods, Lugh was a youthful king and a brave warrior. He was the epitome of a multi-talented deity, donning a sling stone and a magical spear as his weapons.
She was the Queen of all Celtic deities, sitting at the fore of the slew of gods within the mythology. However, not much has been recorded of the goddess; her name alone is evidence of her importance.
Our knowledge of Celtic mythology is limited. Even so, the efforts of many scholars to excavate legends hidden deep within other mythologies are commendable. Recently, pop culture has appropriated many myths to further elevate its favor amongst the youth.

The only thing that is necessary are Arduino and some basic crafting skills and, of course, a free flowing stream. When the target's path (the water flow direction) is not parallel with the gun's antenna, the radar device displays a speed which is lower than the actual water surface velocity. Next, here are presented the Top 7 Liquid Flow Measuring Devices for Oil and Natural Gas. It is primarily used in measuring discharge. Copyright, NIWA. The velocity-measuring device (1) consists of a base unit (10) with a command-display unit (17). The head is a function of flow velocity, and therefore, the flow rate through the device. The accelerometer, A PWM circuit makes a square wave with a variable on-to-off ratio. x-axis and y-axis). The radar device has a microprocessor that computes the velocity based upon the Doppler shift. Instead, it must be calculated in a process known as stream gaging. Radar device for measuring water surface velocity, Application filed by Decatur Electronics Inc. Basically, the current meter is a wheel having several cups or vanes which turn round due to the force of water current. Thus it is important to correct for the vertical angle when taking measurements of surface water from an elevated position. The Flow Probe incorporates the unique Turbo-Prop propeller sensor, which uses the most accurate positive displacement technique available for velocity … This velocity measuring device is a useful tool for manually measuring flow in open channel applications. By placing the accelerometer in the radar gun. The proposed velocity-measuring device (1) can measure the velocity of a wide range of objects via simple sound waves utilising the Doppler-effect principle. At the same time that the microprocessor is receiving a reading from the y-axis sensor, Turning to FIG. Accelerometers can detect a change in tilt because they can measure and account for the Earth's gravity. Its smooth towing speed gives superior results to hand towing. Global Water Flow Probes are highly accurate water velocity instruments for measuring flow in open channels and partially filled pipes. This Acoustic Doppler (water) Current Profiler (ADCP) can measure water velocity and discharge in shallow streams, ranging from 15 to 200 cm deep, in minutes. The inventive device is a radar gun that measures and reports surface velocities. Manning’s Equation, as it is commonly referred to in the United States, is an empirically derived formula for estimating the average velocity of a liquid flowing in an open channel. These small propeller type meters are supplied with two propellers, one for very low flows (up to 0.3 m/s) and another for higher flows (up to 2.0 m/s) . NIWA has built flow stations on rivers and canals for decades. Often the device is used in hazardous conditions, such as flooding, so using the radar device above the water minimizes the risk to the operator. This is a phenomenon called the cosine effect. Simultaneously the other sensor displaces a smaller angle and the effect of gravity on the other sensor is less. Each sensor has a frequency output from which its angle position is determined. This internal automatic compensation allows for accurate measurement of the surface velocity of the water. Mobile measuring system for non-contact discharge measurement. A radar device for measuring the surface velocity of water moving in a horizontal plane in which the radar device is positioned above or below the horizontal plane. An accelerometer that is found to satisfactorily operate is one manufactured by Analog Devices, Inc. One Technology Way, Norwood, Mass. The wetted primary device restricts the liquid flow stream. In all cases, the radar device is elevated above the water, so the vertical angle must be compensated for. With this device you are able to measure the velocity of a free flowing stream. A pitot tube is a simple device meant for measuring the velocity of a liquid at any point. This invention relates to measuring devices and more particularly to a surface velocity radar device for measuring water surface velocity. Many factors can generate currents, such as gravitational forces, rotation of the earth, wind, water conditions gradients and/or geographical landscapes. ABANDONED -- FAILURE TO RESPOND TO AN OFFICE ACTION. It has a tail fin, to allow cable gauging, so can't operate in water as shallow as the Pygmy. Most have two or three different propellors to extend the range from low to higher flows. The reflected signal frequency shifts by an amount proportional to the speed of the target. A radar gun transmits and directs a signal or beam of microwave energy (radio waves) having a given frequency at an approaching or receding target. DECATUR ELECTRONICS, INC., ILLINOIS, Free format text: Staff gages and float-operated units are the simplest devices used for this purpose. It is advantageous to be able to take the velocity measurements above the water surface so that waterproof instruments are not required. They measure water level and convert this to water flow. This Device Is Connected To A U-Tube Manometer With Oil As Manometric Fluid. At 90Â° the target speed is 0 which is grossly incorrect. The equation is used to measure flow in locations where the construction of a hydraulic structure (flume or weir) is impractical. means for correcting the velocity measured to correct for the radar gun being disposed above or below the horizontal thus resulting in an erroneous reading due to the radar gun being disposed at an angle with respect to the horizontal, the means for correcting the velocity measured being a sensor that senses the angle of the radar gun with respect to the horizontal. The radar gun is thus positioned at a vertical angle with respect to the water surface. These have been used to gauge rivers for decades, and despite being mechanical, are reasonably robust and reliable but, unlike the ADCP, need to be calibrated annually. There are many different types of meters by the most common is the Pygmy meter, the vortex meter, the flow probe, and the current meter: They are briefly described below. Magnetic flow meters, commonly referred to as "mag meters", are technically a velocity-type water meter, except that they use electromagnetic properties to determine the water flow velocity, rather than the mechanical means used by jet and turbine meters. When the operator tilts the radar gun at an upward or downward angle from the horizontal level position, the effect of gravity displaces the sensor. Owner name: The speed of the rotating wheel indicates the velocity of the current. This is known as the Doppler effect. 3 is an electrical schematic diagram of the accelerometer used to determine tilt angle and how it is connected to the radar device's microprocessor. This small bucket wheel current meter has a very low starting velocity and no tail fin, so is ideal for measuring very low flows in shallow water. Not all flow measuring devices ... wood, or fiberglass and can measure water over a wide variety of flow ranges. Others are more suitable for monitoring water flow in pipes. The sensors are aligned horizontally with the two sides of the radar gun and separated by 90Â°. The radar gun reads the frequency data from the tilt sensors, and the computer software uses this in calculating the cosine corrected angle of the angle formed by the radar device and the point where the velocity is measured. The electromagnetic flowmeter is capable of measuring flow rates in different water quality conditions, which brings small disturbances to the water flow, and can measure instantaneous flow rates, but the method is susceptible to interference from nearby electromagnetic … Open channel flowmeters perform flow measurement of liquids that are open to the atmosphere at some point in the flow measurement path. a processor mounted in the radar gun to receive the output signal. Thus, the speed calculation must compensate for the horizontal angle. A processor in the radar device calculates the cosine correction factor that is applied to the measured velocity of the target point. The water velocity probe consists of a protected water turbo prop positive displacement sensor coupled to an expandable probe handle with a digital readout display. The above Table 1 shows the actual velocity speeds in the left column and the displayed speed at antenna to target angles in the right column if the radar gun is not adjusted for the horizontal angle from the position of the gun antenna to the target. The device contains an accelerometer that has two sensors. Honestly, most people who gauge streams, including the USGS don't continuously measure velocity at all. Applicant's invention provides for automatically entering the vertical or tilt angle into the software for the vertical cosine correction, replacing the operator's manual entry of the past. In this manner, the sensor can relay data to a microprocessor. Pitch angle=asin (acceleration in the x direction/1 g calibration from the x sensor reading). RADIO DIRECTION-FINDING; RADIO NAVIGATION; DETERMINING DISTANCE OR VELOCITY BY USE OF RADIO WAVES; LOCATING OR PRESENCE-DETECTING BY USE OF THE REFLECTION OR RERADIATION OF RADIO WAVES; ANALOGOUS ARRANGEMENTS USING OTHER WAVES, Systems using the reflection or reradiation of radio waves, e.g. 1 there is illustrated a radar gun. For water flowing in a pipe under steady-state conditions (i.e., not changing over time), continuitymeans the water that flows into one end of a pipe must flow out of the other end. Currently, pan evaporimeters – resembling large pans that are filled with water – are the most commonly used devices to measure evaporation rates. When the beam strikes the target, a small amount of energy from the beam is reflected back to the antenna in the radar device. Meters are devices that measure the stream flow by directly measuring the current. The continuity equation can be represented as: Flow = velocity * area The notion of continuity under steady state conditions results in the product of the velocity * area being equal to a constant at any location along the pipe. This is a useful pr… When used in measuring the volume of water passing though the water in a water meter, or the speed of the water passing through a flow meter, it is actually measuring the sound as it bounces off of bubbles, dirt or impurities in the water. The law of electromagnetic induction is also utilized, which takes the water flow as a conductor to measure the flow velocity. These consist of a primary device, transducer, and flow transmitter. It is a related object to provide a radar gun with automatic tilt or vertical angle correction so that the gun can be positioned above the water surface, minimizing the hazardous risks to the operator if the operator was required to stand in the moving water. The liquid may be entirely open to the atmosphere, or may be contained within a closed pipe that is not full of liquid and only open to the atmosphere at the installation point of the flowmeter itself. This also means that the flow rate in the pipe is the same at any location along the length of the pipe. There are also a few less commonly used devices, such as a radar setup that measures the velocity of waves and micro-waves on the surface of the water. The USGS has been doing this since 1889, when it established its first stream gage on the Rio Grande River in New Mexico to determine how much water was availabl… Velocity measurement of water flow is an important task in hydrological monitoring [1–3]. The outputs are duty cycle modulated (DCM) signals whose duty cycles (ratio of pulse-width to period) are proportional to the acceleration in each of the two axes (i.e. A radar device for measuring the surface velocity of water moving in a horizontal plane in which the radar device is positioned above or below the horizontal plane.
