judge based the way used today that what commentators actually say what rabbis teach etc suspect you meant this context the jewish tradition you have been referring one problem with highly interpreted tradition like this what happens when schism occurs and over time certain large and influential branches the heretical group come favor exactly face value interpretation judge the bible value when originally written you read the context its time not with today assumptions and compare the practices surrounding people while the context the time important value judgments must ultimately according current understanding least some base standard relative stability success society this obviously true comparing practices surrounding people for instance according the bible the surrounding people were immoral savages with repulsive and inhuman habits need look rather what those peoples were really like for instance what way better worship single god whose presence symbolically strongest tent temple over multiple gods some whose presence symbolically represented statue the bible own terms idolatry inherently evil but see evidence that the followers the various other religions the area and time were particularly bad people relative the people the bible scissors and cloth now the past our ancestors did cut cloth with scissors but they least knew that their inhumane neighbors cut with their bare teeth this was relatively enlightened step forward from their earlier barbarism and made the transition modern civilized paper cutting that much easier sounds good but presupposes teeth rending neighbors which see support for one can argue that post facto assertion inhumane neighbors can used make moral points but that doesn mean that the actual neighbors really were inhuman more the point such dehumanization the people across the river over the mountain even different people dwelling among all too common that complex and benign moral traditions have evolved based particular mythic interpretations that history interesting but still don think fair take that long tradition interpretation and use attack condemnation the original history note that speaking historical interpretation here for instance claiming that hammurabi eye for eye was primitive brutal retribution while moses version was enlightened benign fine because the tradition has since interpreted the phrase that way years ago they probably both meant the same thing sure arguing from parochial perspective belong this tiny tribe which has struggled against overwhelming odds for survival distinct

about crisis faith and chose this myth present placing the actor gibreel the role the angel whose name took rushdie was not writing history theology book and nowhere claims implies that this what actually happened somewhat like stories woven around the relationship between jesus and the reformed prostitute mary magdalene another myth those referring the arthurian mythos the grail legend the wandering jew dozens others you can stand read the work blasphemer consider salman rushdie children book haroun and the sea stories for idea the way storyteller specific storyteller works with existing story lines ridicule muhammad integrity muhammad mahound integrity not really impugned this part the story and there reason think this was rushdie intent gibreel the archangel produces the verses divine and satanic though doesn know their provenance not implied straight reading that muhammad influences them not voice never know such words classy speaker never was never will but this isn voice voice mahound eyes open wide seeing some kind vision staring that right gibreel remembers seeing lips moving being moved what whom don know can say nevertheless here they are coming out mouth

something chest sadly understandable faith and dogma are dangerous yes religion inherently encourages the implementation faith and dogma and for that reason scorn religion fair you should really qualify this semitic western religions but you basically ahead and this later anyway have expressed this notion the past some christians debated with whether christianity leaves any room for reasoning claimed rationality quelled out christianity faith and dogma again this should really evaluated personal level for example there was only one jesus presumably and probably didn say all that many things and yet seemingly billions and billions christian sects have arisen perhaps there one that totally dedicated rationalism and believes christ pantheism would seem against the bible but amazing what people come with under the guise personal interpretation philosopher cannot christian because philosopher can change his mind whereas christian cannot due the nature faith and dogma present any religion this good point have here the quintessential christian sets system values beliefs for himself which work very well and every event experience understandable and deablable within the framework this system however also have individual who has the inability least not without some difficulty change which important because the problem with such system the same with any system one cannot open minded the point testing hypotheses against the basic premise the system without destroying whatever faith invested therein unless course all the tests fail other words the fairer way would test and evaluate moralities without the bias responsibility losing retaining system claimed that christian philosopher not christian but person whose beliefs the moment correspond with those christianity consider that person visiting guarding prison not prisoner unless you define prisoner simply someone prison can define prisoner someone who the moment prison can define christian someone who the moment has christian beliefs because person free not prisoner similarly person not constrained faith and dogma not christian interesting but again when seems basically boil down individual nuances although not always will admit and probably the mass oriented divisions which are the most appalling becomes irrelevant unfortunately admit word game going the dictionary definition religion religion concern over what exists beyond the visible world differentiated from philosophy that operates through faith intuition rather than reason webster now let beyond the word game don claim that religion causes genocide think that all humans were atheist there would still genocide there will always humans who don think there will always humans who don ask themselves what the real difference between themselves and people with different colored skin different language different beliefs granted religion like the gun that doesn kill anybody religion encourages faith and dogma and although doesn directly condemn people encourages the use just because thinking just because thinking that kills people which case the people become the bullets and the religion the gun merely offers them way more adequately some harm with themselves may bold extend your similie sure religion has many good qualities encourages benevolence and philanthropy take out only the bad things like faith dogma and tradition put the good things like careful reasoning and science the result secular humanism wouldn nice everyone were secular humanist please the supernaturalists you might even leave god there but the secular emphasis would cause the supernaturalists start thinking and they too would realize that belief god really doesn put anyone further ahead understanding the universe just poking fun the

society state and religion are cautioned the only reason said anything all about the rushdie affair this group because the whole basis for the discussion the fatwa that apostasy was wrong when one

claimed that mathematical insight cannot algorithmic his book the emperor new mind concerning computers minds and the laws physics however penrose claim that has mathematical insight your similar claim that wavefunctions collapse only when consciously take look could just illusions are obviouslu taking very different viewpoints try ponder the problem consciousness from evolutionary perspective realising that might not anything special but certainly useful thinking back what wrote you think worms have minds not they are able experience pain least they behave just like that yet conceivable that might some day the future perform total synthesis elegans from the elements would such worm have mind firstly not impressed with the ability algorithms they great solving problems once the method has been worked out but not working out the method itself this true some extent however not think that our brains work like computers all fact there substantial evidence skarda skarda freeman that brains work more less chaotically generating enough randomness for mental states evolve our brains work much like genetic algorithm generators suppose the trick still has there some form discovered does this mean that all the ideas will ever have are already pre programmed into our brains this somewhat unlikely given that our brains ultimately are encoded chromosomes worth genetic material much which isn used indeed this extremely unlikely given the vast impact nurture our mind and brain suggest however that before trying understand our consciousness collection algorithms kevin take look the references mentioned and think again still think the best experts the nature conscious mind are neurologists neuropsychologists and biologists but not flame for opinions since they study beings that are conscious the reason repeating advice that this discussion cannot lead anywhere our backgrounds are too different and please not bring into this discussion all not all physicists are happy with the claim that our consciousness plays some special role physics would say doesn the other problem with algorithms their instability not many algorithms survive you take out large portion their code yet people survive strokes without going completely haywire there are side effects but patients still seem remarkably stable also neurons perfectly healthy people are dying alarming rate can algorithm survive randomly corrupt various bits code again brains are not computers don forget this this does not mean they need something else work they just work differently their primary purpose perception and guidance action self awareness and high intelligence are later appearances the next problem the sticky question what colour replace colour with the sensation your choice presumably the materialist viewpoint that the product some kind chemical reaction the usual products such reaction are energy different chemicals colour mixture these you are still expecting that could find the idea green our brains somewhere perhaps the form some chemical this not how see the sensation green certain time dependent pattern the area our visual cortex and distributed with the help areas and the rest the brain indeed firing pattern have sometimes thought our consciousness global free induction pattern these local firing patterns but this just idle speculation scientific american september issue was special issue mind and brain have you already read from cover cover there are two articles visual perception you might interested but again please note that subjective experiences cannot observed from third person perspective see nothing but neuronal activity cannot conclude that this not the mind kalat writes about numerous examples where electric stimulation different areas brain have led various changes the patients state mind for instance patient whose septal area was stimulated without his knowledge remote control during psychiatric interview was quickly cured his depression and started discussing plan seduce his girlfriend stimulations the temporal lobe have sometimes led embarrassing situations when the patients have started flirting with the therapist conclusion there evidence that brains are essentially necessary for subjective experiences brain damage usually equivalent some sort mind damage conscious processes involve substantial brain activity various areas brain when think colours our visual cortex activated etc consciousness afterthought become conscious our actions with half second delay and our brains are ahead our conscious will least thus think fruitful turn the question why see colours around and ask what this that seems observing since seems that our conscious mind not the king our brains this computer won see colour because the chemistry different does algorithm that sees colour have selective advantage over equivalent that doesn shouldn because the outputs each algorithm ought the same equivalent circumstances why see colour this depends what meant seeing colours does neural network that capable recognising handwritten numbers from see the numbers capable sorting them you are asking why does animal who conscious itself observer have evolutionary advantage over animal who doesn have good answer read previous posting where wrote why sense identity helps social animals swap roles and act more morally that they don unconsciously kill each other with newly discovered weapons bit extreme but this the basic idea when early homo became more and more efficient using tools sense identity and the concept self had evolve line with this development indeed respect for others and conscious altruistic behaviour might evolutionary advantages for social animals such early humans remember correctly quantum mechanics consists wavefunction with two

are required for this does this mean that until human minds came the scene wavefunctions never collapsed but remained the superpositions for aeons how powerful are this has been discussed before and think this topic irrelevant since not agree that minds are necessary and neither physicists anyway speculating that minds would part there seems some link between consciousness and that never see linear superpositions anything although there are alternative explainations for this idea how brain supposed access part but since this only speculation that won matter too much main point that there

because bombing wasn accurate enough hit industrial military targets decisive way any other method that time but the gulf war precision bombing was the norm bullshit the gulf massacre all ordnance

involves field research here the net the following survey directed towards all readers this group intended get data about the basis atheistic belief would seriously appreciate each and every one you would fill out and mail back mtabbott unix amherst edu first all tried structure questions that can answered variety ways with varying amounts detail possible give succinct answers most everything but there enough here keep most you typing for hours sure much detail you want give mean great but also important for have broad base individuals possible even minimal responses are far better than nothing short survey you just answer the questions without elaboration secondly hope some the questions don come off obnoxious know that phrases like what would convince you the existence god imply that seminary student intent proving you all ignorant godless heathens fact not too sure about the existence higher power myself use god question locution rather than ideology easier than just repeating deity higher power every time also tend use lot anthropological buzzwords like belief system although know some you might contend that you don have any beliefs but are skeptical towards everything understand but you know what mean think such buzzwords abbreviations for the rather unweildy phrases required get the precise idea across lastly thanks please fill out much you can much detail you can and send them research and thank you where would you place your beliefs the spectrum theism agnosticism weak atheism strong atheism feel free elaborate your specific beliefs what any religious tradition were you raised did you ever believe the existence god several the following questions presume that the answer this yes you always been atheist least never theist you may have modify the question answer somewhat how serious was your your family involvement how and when did you start doubt the tenets you were raised believe how and when did your final break with your beliefs any occur realize that this often more ongoing process than event per whatever the case just describe whatever detail you wish what contact with other atheists have you had before and after and during your conversion atheism certainly your involvement with alt atheism counts how have net discussions affected your beliefs what extent you think other atheists have influenced you your beliefs did you come your beliefs through discussion through independent means some combination the two other means are you convinced that your beliefs were acquired through wholly rational means proofs the non existence god etc was perhaps least part through other means alienation from mainstream religion etc what extent you feel you understand the universe through your beliefs what phenomena the universe and human existence anything from physical phenomena the problem the existence evil human affairs you feel are adequately dealt with your beliefs and where are they lacking explanatory method what would take for you question change your beliefs what would convince you the existence god what would convince you the plausibility god existence and forth how dynamic are your beliefs are they constantly changing have they stayed more less the same for some time are you involved career education science what extent you think science has influenced your beliefs issac asimov claimed that science was the new secular religion and that scientists are very real sense the new priesthood you see the pursuit science having quasi religious base even religious element this survey intended get data from broad range individuals but also help narrow down the field small group people whose ideas and histories could very useful would you willing have the basis this survey write you find out

article qsnqqinn senator bedfellow mit edu bobs thnext mit edu robert singleton writes article apr dcs warwick simon dcs warwick simon clippingdale writes alarming amounts agreement deleted made statement about ockums razor from experiences physics thanks for info baysian statistics very interesting and didn know before follow your proof but have one questions have two hypotheses and the latter more complicated which definition means that complicated isn fact where comes from more the other way around from where the complement and axiom anything sense necessarily more complicated than for any and may splitting hairs but what trying say that irrespective subjective impressions how complicated something holds with equality and only you point out very simple matter show and thus preferd now say that consistent with the data say can you elaborate some this well means that likely observed operative operative this implies that observing does not provide any useful information which might allow discriminate between the respective possibilities that and are operative the difference reduces the difference between the unknown and unhelpful prior probabilities and and where and are equally consistent with the data that observing doesn give any pointers which operative the particular case where and however know that their prior probabilities are ordered although don know the actual values and this which allows deploy the razor throw out any such also the real world isn clear cut and dry seems can always determine whether the equality true that certainly true but the particular point here was whether not divine component actually underlies the prevalence religion addition the memetic transmission component which even the religious implicitly acknowledge operative when they talk spreading the word now seems said that the observed variance religious belief well accounted for the memetic transmission model but rather less well one proposes divine component addition since would expect the latter conspire against wide variance and even mutual exclusion among beliefs thus personal feeling that isn even equal this case but smaller memetic transmission divine component the variance among beliefs but happily acknowledge that this subjective impression btw beef with your baysian argument was not mathematical one checked most your work and didn find error and you seem very careful there probably isn math mistake think the mistake philosophical but just make sure understand you can please rephrase non technical terms think this reasonable request always try look for ways explaining physics non physicist not baysian statistician nor any type statistician this would very helpful not that statistician such either but the idea that both theism and atheism are compatible with all the read observations date however theism the type with which concerned also suggests that for instance prayer may answered people may miraculously healed both are principle amenable statistical verification and that god may generally intervene measurable ways this means that these regions the space possible observations which loosely termed appearances god have some nonzero probability under the theistic hypothesis and zero under the atheistic since there only much probability available for each hypothesis scatter around over the observation space the probability which theism expends making appearances god possible must come from somewhere else other possible observations all else being equal this means that observation which isn appearance god must have slightly higher probability under atheism than under theism the bayesian stuff implies that such observations must cause running estimate for the probability the atheistic hypothesis increase with corresponding decrease running estimate for the probability the theistic hypothesis sorry that still bit jargonesque but rather difficult put any other way since does depend intimately the properties conditional probability densities and particularly that the total area under them always unity analogy may may not helpful say that hypothesis the coin fair and that the coin unfair two headed used and avoid confusion with heads and tails then total total the observations are string heads with tails this compatible with both fair coin and two headed coin however the probability expended making possible the appearance tails even though they don actually appear must come from somewhere else since the total must unity and comes this case from the probability the appearance heads say our running estimates time are and the observation time another head the estimates are modified according and now don know the actual prior probability head but the multiplier for half that for this true every time the coin tossed and head observed thus whatever the initial values the estimates after heads have and and since any time you can show that and thus hence the estimate for the fair coin hypothesis must decrease each trial and that for the two headed coin hypothesis must increase even though both hypotheses are compatible with string heads the loose analogy between unfair coin and atheism and between fair coin and theism with observations consistent with both tail which would falsify unfair coin analogous appearance god which would falsify atheism not claiming that the analogy extends the numerical values the various probabilities just that the principle the same constant observation evidence for gods evidence for them all possible under the respective theisms constantly increases the notional estimated probability that they don exist important draw distinction between theism that could supported not supported evidence and theism that can given theism for which evidence principle not possible doesn make sense say lack evidence supports the contrary view quite but this type theism what might call the the terms our ockham razor discussion and bin those grounds depends upon your conception this god conception like zeus who happened come down earth play quite frequently then agree with you lack evidence for this conception god evidence that does not exist but your conception god one that does not make falsifiable predictions see below falsifiable predictions then disagree lack evidence does not support disbelief the hypotheses don have falsifiable and indeed model the theism isn falsifiable used the phrase should obverse given any specific theism does not make the prediction that why used the word should theism makes predictions about any specific event can only say believe that god did such and such after such and such happens believe god will such and such but for any given can never priori say can not even say this for the set all some this what don like about your use probability also have way assigning these probabilities hold science positivistic criteria someone cannot tell how measure even principle then probability not applicable hypothesis such the case when theistic and atheistic for example what how measure you don have don need the above analogy know any prior probabilities deduce that the updating multiplier for the fair coin hypothesis less than unity and that the corresponding multiplier for the two headed coin hypothesis greater than unity you don need know the initial values the running estimates either clear that after large number observations fair coin approaches zero and two headed coin approaches unity all you need know whether larger than for observed and this follows from the assumptions that there are certain events rendered possible not necessary under which are not possible under and all else equal baysian statistics relies upon series observations but what the hypothesis isn amenable observation and even for statements that are amenable observation some observations are not relevant sequence observations must chosen with care curious know what types observations you have mind concerning theism and atheism any observations you like really doesn matter nor affect the reasoning provided that there are some possible observations which would count appearances god examples this might demonstration the efficacy prayer the veracity revelation but any statement about for general still counts prediction the theism question says that prayer may answered that miracles may happen see interpretation quoted again above what god exists means then this prediction for such what distinguishes from the atheist hypothesis which predicts that this stuff does not happen for such theism does not make the claim that for such should say that theism doesn maybe was too quick say had common language you said that the existence god you mean the notion that the deity described the bible and christians does interact with the universe claimed those agents agreed with this however must careful here believe this not making any claims maybe should have changed does can there important shift emphasis but any way since only have belief cannot conclude for such downgrade does interact may interact which would actually better since does interact implies falsifiability which both agree misplaced don think theism makes predictions maybe not understanding what you mean prediction could you explain what you mean this word explain but bear mind that this isn central all require theism that not make the prediction appearances god will never happen does atheism before somebody points out that quantum mechanics doesn make this prediction either the difference that and atheism not form partition predictions include such statements prayer efficacious implying you the stats you will find that prayer efficacious prayer not efficacious verily say unto you this generation shall not pass till all these things fulfilled don think have any problems misunderstanding here persistent observation this stuff not happening consistent with though may more consistent with explained the bayesian stats post even god exists unfalsifiable that problem for argument other than that you have let the number observations infinity falsify asymptotically btw not consider argument that requires infinite number observations valid rather that part the argument not valid existing humans can never make infinite number measurments and any conclusion that reilies this don accept valid that fine don claim that theism false merely that the finite number observations available far suggest that and that continue observe the suggestion looks better and better renormalization stuff deleted the bayesian stats post assumed that theism was indeed unfalsifiable finite number observations here the relevant quote the important assumption that there are some observations which are compatible with the theist hypothesis and not with the atheist hypothesis and thus would falsify atheism these are what called appearances god but this need not taken too literally any observation which requires for its explanation that one more gods exist will count all other observations are assumed compatible with both hypotheses this leaves theism unfalsifiable and atheism falsifiable single observation only such appearances god here problem with this for something falsifiable must make the prediction that should not seen seen then the hypothesis has been falsified now atheism word oposition something theism theism aserts belief and atheism aserts disbelief there are certain atheisms that are certainly falsifiable just there are certain theisms that are falsifable theism asserts the world only years old and that god does not decieve then this has been falsified however the atheism that oposition unfalsifiable theism also unfalsifiable could wrong this statment contd think you are appearance god sufficient falsify atheism whereas general the corresponding theism unfalsifiable think more about until then here general question suppse were unfalsifiable not also unfalsifiable way counterexample let the coin fair more accurately that not makes sense the two sides the coin are different this unfalsifiable tossing the coin even string heads consistent with fair coin and you have infinite number tosses falsify the limit its converse falsifiable and falsified when least one head and least one tail have appeared this partly what wrong with you baysian argument which requires observations made there are simply such observations that have truth value relation the statement god exists now use your symmetry argument can understand why someone would say since the statement god does not exist makes predictions will choose not believe but none the less this would founded type faith you don like the word faith insert belief for which there falsifiable evidence instead assume you meant god exists there the highlight but our agreed definition exists the statement makes predictions said above although isn falsifiable finite number observations actually mean god does not exist makes predictions oops sorry mea culpa the truth this statment actually depends upon which god you are refering but can think some conceptions god for which true but once again open the posibility that could wrong give some examples predictions the statment god does not exist here one that can think true then there would healing miricles but this can principle never determined one way the other there are cases which people seem recover and are healed without the help doctor and for known reason these situations fact happen they are consistent with theistic hypothesis but way support such hypothesis agree here they are not inconsistent with atheistic hypothesis can think one prediction from god does not exist that isn this type but might missing something the rapture will not happen october said rapture would have falsified atheism satisfaction had happened although its failure happen does not course falsify any theisms other than those which specifically predicted phenomenon which requires the existence one more gods for its explanation will ever observed that about sums the whole thing bob singleton bobs thnext mit edu cheers

that you have nothing better offer define irrational belief rational believe that reason always useful irrational belief belief that not based upon reason the latter has been discussed for long time with charley wingate one point that the beliefs violate reason often and another that process that does not lend itself rational analysis does not contain reliable information well there glaring paradox here argument that reason useful based reason would circular and argument not based reason would irrational which that bogus self reference not circular and since the evaluation usefulness possible within rational systems allowed your argument silly proving mathematical statements needs mathematics and mathematics are therfore circular the first part the second statement contains information because you don say what the beliefs are the beliefs are strong theism and strong atheism then your statement not general true the second part your sentence patently false counterexample axiomatic datum does not lend itself rational analysis but assumed contain reliable information regardless what process used obtain been speaking religious systems with contradictory definitions god here axiomatic datum lends itself rational analysis what you say here often refuted fallacy have look the discussion the axiom choice and further one can evaluate axioms larger systems out which they are usually derived exist derived you want that way further one can test the consistency and set axioms what you are trying say compared the evidence theists have for their claims the strength their demands makes the whole thing not only irrational but antirational can agree with this until you are specific which theism say that all theism necessarily antirational requires proof which suspect you not have using the traditonal definition gods personal supernatural entities with objective effects this world usually connected morals and the way the world works the affinity fanatism easily seen has true because believe nothing more than work hypothesis however the beliefs say they are more than work hypothesis don understand this can you formalise your argument person believes system becuase

you just setting strawman not setting strawman all you want argue against the war then the only logical alternative was allow hussein keep kuwait false dichotomy diplomatic alternatives including sanctions were ineffective that because they weren even attempted but what about those who didn support hitler dreams conquest not they democratically voted for all his policies the nsdap got the elections and that was the last chance the german people got vote the matter they suffered along with the rest why does this bother you much you want know why bothers that thousands innocent people were maimed killed bombing the end when was far from clear that such bombing was necessary the world full evil and circumstances are not perfect many innocents suffer due the wrongful actions others regretable but that the way and why that way who set things that way this was happening before the gulf war why didn send the bombers east timor why aren sending the bombers now probably because not

ramifications that and prepared don believe that you can make the same claim obviously not atheist don think you get with jesus though was long haired lunatic peace nik was not and btw the reason brought the blanket bombing germany was because you were bemoaning the iraqi civilian casualties being deplorable yet blanket bombing was instituted because bombing wasn accurate enough hit industrial military targets decisive way any other method that time but the gulf war precision bombing was the norm the point was why make big stink about the relatively few civilian casualties that resulted spite precision bombing when many more civilians proportionately and quantitatively died under the blanket bombing right unfortunately for you turned out that opinions the matter were entirely consistent that condemned the bombing dresden too think you being bit glib with your explanation the blanket bombing policy too you make sound though were aiming for military targets and could only

strongly correlated with irrational belief absolutes irrational belief absolutes strongly correlated with fanatism deletion theism correlated with fanaticism have neither said that all fanatism caused theism nor that all theism leads fanatism the point theism increases the chance becoming fanatic one could course argue that would fanatics tend towards theism for example but just have loook the times history when theism was the dominant ideology invalidate that conclusion that that the basic mechanism behind imo the influence stalin for that matter ayn rand invalidates your assumption that theism the factor considered bogus just said that theism not the only factor for fanatism the point that theism factor that your claim now back consider your argument useful the following belief strongly correlated with fanaticism therefore belief factor fanaticism true and utterly useless note this any belief not belief gods tiring say the least have backed read the first statement have read conspicuous its absence any evidence point the latter the fallacy the wrong analogy saying someone believes something hardly information about the person all saying someone theist holds much more information further the correlation between theists and fanatism higher than that between belief all and fanatism because the special features theistic belief truth blatant assertion evidence gullibility blind obedience authority lack scepticism and are all more reliable indicators and the really dangerous people the sources fanaticism are often none these things they are cynical manipulators the gullible who know precisely what they are doing that claim you have support please note that especially the field theism the leaders believe what they say you believe that you incredibly naive you frank dwyer are living dream world wonder there any base discussion left after such statement matter fact think you are ignorant human nature even when one starts with something one does not believe one gets easily fooled into actually believing what one says give you the benefit the doubt prove your statement the onus proof you sunshine what makes you think that theist leaders believe what they say especially when they say one thing and another say one thing closely followed its opposite the practice not restricted theism but there for anyone see almost epidemic this country just for instance harder for camel pass thru the eye needle why the catholic church such wealthy land owner why are there churches the square inch country now some brands theism and more precisely some theists tend fanaticism grant you tar all theists with this brush bigotry not reasoned argument and reads like warm for censorship and restriction religious freedom ever read animal farm that straw man and usually discussions with you one has repeat read what have written above not every theism leads fanatism and not all fanatism caused theism the point there correlation and comes from innate features theism some comes from features which some theism has common with some fanaticism your last statement simply isn implied what you say before because you trying sneak innate features all theism the word you groping for some bogus again not all theism fanatic however the rest already gives backup for the statement about the correlation about fanatism and theism and further the specialty other theistic beliefs allows them switch fanatism easily takes just nifty improvement the theology truth blatant assertion gullibility the way one them shit sherlock why not talk about gullibility instead theism since seems whole lot more relevant the case you have opposed the case you are trying make because there more about theism that the attraction gullible people causing the correlation and the whole discussion started that way the statement that theism meaningfully correlated fanatism which you challenged indeed did recall asked for evidence what the correlation which you speak and say that going forbid religion another your straw men interesting that you have nothing better offer said reads like warm that that because irrational and bogus tirade and has other use than creating nice them split the minds excitable people such are found either side church walls blah blah blah quite well aware that giving everyone their rights protects better from fanatics than the other way round course other people are always fanatics never oneself your wish slur all theists seems pretty fanatical quite nice see that you are actually implying connection between that argument and the rise fanatism far just another your assertions you can define irrational belief rational believe that reason always useful irrational belief belief that not based upon reason the latter has been discussed for long time with charley wingate one point that the beliefs violate reason often and another that process that does not lend itself rational analysis does not contain reliable information well there glaring paradox here argument that reason useful based reason would circular and argument not based reason would irrational which that bogus self reference not circular and since the evaluation usefulness possible within rational systems allowed oval still begging the question however and though that certainly allowed not rational and you claiming rational and all another your assertions proof evidence just claims hey learned from you did good the risk repeating myself and hearing had that before didn hear refutation before back deal with you can use reason demonstrate that reason useful someone who thinks reason crap won buy you see that unusually weak even for you the latter implies that proof depends their opinion somehow who does not accept that there are triangles won accept pythagoras wow that incredible insight don have prove them wrong their opinion possible show that their systems leave out useful information respectively claims unreliable even absurd statements information totally circular and totally useless their wish believe makes them believe things are judges their appeal and not their information makes you feel good when you believe that may good for them but contains zillions possible pitfalls from belief despite contrary evidence the bogus proofs they attempt truth blatant assertion seen many bogus proofs the non existence gods have their existence rational systems the way does not mean that every data has come from logical analysis the point that the evaluation the data does not contradict logic easily follows that such system does not allows evaluate its rational itself yes possible evaluate that rational system that not rational the fallacies that system but since the validity the axioms agreed upon that has little impact the possibility demon ala descartes this just doesn parse sorry far just matter consistency use ratiional arguments show that system consistent that theirs isn the evaluation the nor this predictions does not need rationality does not contradict however your argument silly proving mathematical statements needs mathematics and mathematics are therfore circular anybody else think godel was silly stream consciousness typing what that supposed mean the first part the second statement contains information because you don say what the beliefs are the beliefs are strong theism and strong atheism then your statement not general true the second part your sentence patently false counterexample axiomatic datum does not lend itself rational analysis but assumed contain reliable information regardless what process used obtain been speaking religious systems with contradictory definitions god here axiomatic datum lends itself rational analysis what you say here often refuted fallacy have look the discussion the axiom choice and further one can evaluate axioms larger systems out which they are usually derived exist derived you want that way further one can test the consistency and set axioms what you are trying say that some point people always wind saying this datum reliable for particular reason all example not dreaming nope there evidence for the trick that the choice axiomatic basis system difficult because the possibilities are interwoven one therefore chooses that with the least assumptions with assumptions that are necessary get information out the system anyway like see this alleged evidence one does not need define axioms order define evaluation method for usefulness the foundation laid how one feels all that not how one feels about see you have irrational beliefs but then fanatics never they compared the evidence theists have for their claims the strength their demands makes the whole thing not only irrational but antirational can agree with this until you are specific which theism say that all theism necessarily antirational requires proof which suspect you not have using the traditonal definition gods personal supernatural entities with objective effects this world usually connected morals and the way the world works imo any belief about such gods necessarily irrational that does not mean that people who hold them are principle opposed the exercise intelligence some atheists are also scientists for example they don use theism when doing science wouldn science please note that subjective data lend themselves scientific treatment well they just prohibit formulating them objective statements ergo nothing objective fair enough the affinity fanatism easily seen has true because believe nothing more than work hypothesis however the beliefs say they are more than work hypothesis don understand this can you formalise your argument person believes system becuase sounds nice that does not make true best work hypothesis however the content that true and that more than work hypothesis testing evaluating evidence for against therefore dismissed because already believed says wrong waste time not possible depending the further contents amalekites idolaters protestants are killed this can have interesting effects peculiar definition interesting but sure now show that belief gods entails the further contents which you speak why aren catholic neighbours out killing the protestants for example maybe they don believe maybe the conjunction asserts and jail kill dissenters that important and the belief gods entirely irrelevant certainly seems but then have axe grind here the example with your neighbours fallacy that your neighbours don says little about others and there were times when exactly that happened nope not fallacy just doesn the correlation you wish see and tell when not irrelevant why are such statements about amalekites and idolaters the holy books please note that one could edit them out when they are not relevant anymore because gods don err what does that say about that message excuse the holy books and how come had theists saying genocides ordered god are god the easiest way excuse anything and therefore highly attracting fanatics not mention the effect interpretation these fanatics can have the rest the believers happens again and again and again

undefined since anyone who claims that they not know what either lying out touch with humanity undeserving reply the good undefined undefinable but you require everyone that they know innately what right you are back subjectivism and begging the question see below defining the good solely terms evaluative terms ditto here evaluative statement implies value judgement the part the person making again incorrect and question begging see below this point the objectivist may talk self evident truths pretty perceptive that prof flew but can deny the subjectivist claim that self evidence the mind the beholder course denying that subject object true dichotomy please explain how this helps don see your argument don see yours seems rest the assertion that everything either subject object there nothing compelling about that dichotomy might just well divide the world into subject object event even seems more sensible causation for example event not subject object furthermore subject object were true dichotomy everything either subject object then that statement self evident truth not then all the mind the beholder according the relativist and hardly compelling add that the fact that the world can quickly shoved its entirety into the subjective category idealist solipsist argument and that have this perfectly good alternate set categories subject object event which can reduced subject object quality without any logical difficulty and why yes guess denying that self evident truths are all the mind the beholder not what left the claim that some moral judgements are true all nothing then moral judgements are true this thing that commonly referred nihilism entails that science value irrepective the fact that some people find useful how anyone arrives relativism subjectivism from this argument beats this makes sense either flew arguing that this where the objectivist winds not the subjectivist furthermore the nihilists believed nothing except science materialism revolution and the people referring ethical nihilism the subjectivist may well feel that all that remains that there are some moral judgements with which would wish associate himself hold moral opinion suggests not know something true but have preferences regarding human activity and those preferences should include terrorism that moral opinion not true likewise the preferences should include noterrorism that moral opinion not true why should one choose set preferences which include terrorisim over one which includes noterrorism reason this patently absurd and also not the position the subjectivist has been pointed out you already others ditch the strawman already and see reply mike cobb root message the thread societal basis for morality responded over there btw don intend this strawman but

rescorla there little point responding the same points everywhere best give everyone the courtesy reply you still repeat that point curious since believe that was the first time ever made not that repetition would imply much more than your seeming inability understand you ask the same question give you the same answer especially when this case know the answer true best give everyone the courtesy reply but everyone making the same points and pushed for time then try respond what believe are the strongest formulations those points that doesn include your post tough this usenet and life tough all over since there great deal responses this isn always feasible best honestly answer questions put you drop out debates with some posters and continue with others you appear with the same issue every months and start the dicussion the beginning again only debated this issue twice and occasionally the first was response simon clippingdale positive assertion that disagreement about moral values inexorably acknowledges that morals are relative doesn now simon has dropped out the debate for some time take that mean that either busy bored with the topic certainly not accuse him dishonesty you can always understand what you say neither can understand you all the time usually one asks what the other side means usually one does usually you clear but sometimes you aren and ask you what you mean other times you seem get extremely uptight and feel that debating against line noise sometimes get tired and sometimes have other things rather again this usenet and life tough all over you going have deal with you starting get personally insulting may not even put your name the hat future that supposed threat that simple statement and assertion that not answerable those who offer baseless insults for example those who accuse lying about personal beliefs while also complaining that don answer their questions like that you what you sense evidence for the sensed there only everything would easy what almost everyone senses evidence for the sensed there because all intents and purposes there had that argument for one your claim that everyone senses not founded and you have been asked give evidence for often and then the correct statement would reason assume that there unless evidence against has been found have problem with the second statement have provided argument that almost everyone senses that freedom valuable the only cogent objection this came from jon livesey and was offered some other people too essentially that people disagree about fuzzy concepts such freedom good point and thinking about your trick say feel not right and many know therefore absolutely right neglects the possibility that these people consider right effect the same process restricting the claim its absoluteness those who have been subject that process other words refutes you make the ontological claim you have prove nonsense trick say feel that better than and does almost any disinterested person ask best evidence therefore that really better than subject the assumption that can establish our mutual satisfaction what mean and and that the resulting system values self consistent now get this really better idealisation fictional model the same sense that real material existence fictional model may may not correspond something true nonetheless useful assumption far more useful than the equally assumed relativist trick wit feel that better than and does almost any disinterested person ask however even one person disagrees that better than even one person dissents from mutually agreed definitions and then the case that better than for that person and nothing more can said say this useless because inexorably implies that supermajority seeking maximise cannot morally take action against someone seeking maximise terrorist that would claim that supermajority carefully considered morality would better than the terrorist which would course true but for ethical relativist claim that ethical relativism implies anything else simply weasel words and example compartmentalisation rival anything the world religion for similar argument sense morality subjective does not hurt things that are considered objectively wrong others you mean that you things that some others consider objectively wrong and turns out not the case for you course

case anybody hadn noticed frank and are debating objective morality and seemingly hitting semantics secondly how can refute your definition can only point its logical implications and say that they seem contradict the usage the word objective other areas indeed your definition objective oxymoron for all have quibble with that belief other than that useless and that objective perfectly good word may that being non native english speaker misunderstood your usage objective and tried debate something you don assert apologies loss imagine what you really mean though how many ages can the universe have and still internally self consistent amazed was more than one how many different moral systems can different members society have indeed single individuals some cases and humanity still stick together begging the question people can have many opinions about the age the universe and humanity can still stick together you are saying that the universe has real age independent beliefs about why wrong point the age the universe has direct effect humanity sticking power the way the moral system society can have saying the universe has real age because see evidence for cosmology astronomy and say this age independent people opinions because know different people have lot different opinions the matter yet empirical tests consistently seem give roughly the same results the age the universe like most scientific facts can emirically verified through means that give the same result matter who performs the testing albeit there are error bars that may the largish side this assumes that the universe has real age any kind reality which doesn depend what think can see how does that put creationist the task performing the tests and calculations see makes blatant errors measuring calculating and the result the test will the same why should extreme biblical creationist give rat ass about the means which you speak because logically consistent empirical tests contradict their opinion those tests were just opinion then their own tests which would then their opinion would contradict mine even conducted said tests identical manner they don which take showing these tests have some validity beyond our opinion them heard way verify morality consistent way much less compute the errors the measurement care enlighten the same true pain but painkillers exist and can predicted work with some accuracy better than random guess map the activity nerves and neural activity you mean physical pain you have sharp point give you that but you still haven given way quantify morality wrote elsewhere that morality should hypotheses about observed value agree hypotheses however can change hold that there ultimate hypothesis morality towards which these changes could gravitate but that they could changed any way imaginable producing different results suitable for different tasks purposes moral system makes prediction will better that can tested better and worse are almost always defined the context moral system your prediction will always correct within that moral system what you need now objective definition good and bad wish you luck people ideas about the age object are not objective you can have any idea you like and can stop you universae and their ages another ballgame they are what they are and you dislike some detail them that problem with your opinion them sure assume objective reality and you get statements like this isn that what you doing when assuming objectively real morality besides what exactly provably wrong with statement claim that morality opinion ours and such subjective and individual wrong then some more less objectively real thing exists which you label objective morality can you back this positive claim existence can you back your positive claim above that because assumption make the same assumption about values the basis that there logical difference between the two and the empirical basis the two precisely the same claiming there objective morality suddenly positive claim besides think can lend some credence claim ponder different individuals both fully functional human beings and members society but yet with wildly different moral codes morality was objective least one should way off base but yet hir incorrect morality seems function fine how come for producing these individuals might easiest pick them from different societies say islamic one and some polynesian matrilineal system for example such still exist deletia testing for footballs desks now take look morality see anything please inform which way look and why look that particular way opposed some other get drift just look are you claiming never know what good means one thing good under some circumstances because wish achieve some goal for some reason other times wish something else and that thing longer clearly good all some things are hard make good because seldom ever wish achieve the sort goal mass murder would lead one into still the aztecs were doing fine until the spaniards wiped them out almost always know what good means sometimes even know why never claim this good thereby fixed stone immutable that simple matter proving the track

noting that particular society this case the mainland has few religously motivated murders and few murders any kind says very little about whether inter religion murders elsewhere are religiously motivated but allows one conclude that there nothing inherent all religion for that matter catholicism and protestantism that motivates one kill motivates allows the christian bible says that one may kill under certain circumstances fact instructs one kill under certain circumstances say the majority people have moral system that instructs them kill under certain circumstances get your distinction between motivate and allow and agree that flavour theism allows atoricities then that indictment that theism but rather depends what the certain circumstances are when you talk about christianity islam then least your claims can understood when people general statement about theism that falls apart one could believe god which instructs one utterly harmless for part conclude that something else required also happen believe that that something else will work less well without religion any easy them will and what does religion supply not easy them not necessarily love thy neighbour does not supply them demolishes and definition religion broader than definition theism have explained insisting that even the murder four labourers chosen because they were catholics and who had nothing with the ira protestant extremists not religously motivated think what you are saying that you simply will not accept any murder being religiously motivated what about that guy who cut off someone head because believed was the devil incarnate that was religously motivated what about the protestant extremists who killed four catholic labourers that wasn religiously motivated not opinion they were doing because some obscure point theology then yes but since all protestants don this nor they elect extremists for them just too broad too say religion did this saying that the causes are far more complex than that take away the religious element and you still have the powerful motives revenge and misguided patriotism you know when most catholics and protestants worldwide say stop the killing one might listen that especially when you claim not read minds also the murders ensuing from the fatwa rushdie the inquisitions and the many religous wars what special about these exceptions isn this all just grab bag hoc excuses for not considering some other murders religiously motivated what the general principle behind all this the general principle that fairly clear least that religion the

take look your dictionary alt atheism faq files notice that atheism not belief system and what common all atheists not belief but lack belief deities cannot imagine how anyone could research atheism without paying careful attention this issue first all tried structure questions that can answered variety ways with varying amounts detail possible give succinct answers most everything but there enough here keep most you typing for hours sure imho this poor method any real survey although sure the replies might keep you amused for hours also tend use lot anthropological buzzwords like belief system although know some you might contend that you don have any beliefs but are skeptical towards everything understand but you know what mean think such buzzwords abbreviations for the rather unweildy phrases required get the precise idea across not know what you mean you are surveying our individual philosophies fine but that not strictly atheism atheism not just another godless version the theistic explanations for life the universe and everything not belief system and could hardly called philosophical system once more atheism characterised lack belief deities not twist the meaning assume that have some kind philosophy all agree some comments your questions what contact with other atheists have you had before and after and during your conversion atheism certainly your involvement with alt atheism counts how have net discussions affected your beliefs would also like hear more about this have been able convert anyone are you convinced that your beliefs were acquired through wholly rational means proofs the non existence god etc was perhaps least part through other means alienation from mainstream religion etc this question contains contradiction terms beliefs cannot acquired rationally they could they would not beliefs you also seem have rather strange ideas how people become atheists those who are alienated from religion not necessarily become atheists they just think very little about religion seems requires considerable time honest inquiry find out that religions are actually intellectually dishonest virtual realities those who have never had beliefs will certainly find this question quite odd how can lack belief acquired when did acquire lack belief the easter bunny did believe santa though what extent you feel you understand the universe through your beliefs what phenomena the universe and human existence anything from physical phenomena the problem the existence evil human affairs you feel are adequately dealt with your beliefs and

frank dwyer writes theism strongly correlated with irrational belief absolutes irrational belief absolutes strongly correlated with fanatism deletion theism correlated with fanaticism have neither said that all fanatism caused theism nor that all theism leads fanatism the point theism increases the chance becoming fanatic one could course argue that would fanatics tend towards theism for example but just have loook the times history when theism was the dominant ideology invalidate that conclusion that that the basic mechanism behind imo the influence stalin for that matter ayn rand invalidates your assumption that theism the factor considered bogus just said that theism not the only factor for fanatism the point that theism factor that your claim now back consider your argument useful the following belief strongly correlated with fanaticism therefore belief factor fanaticism true and utterly useless note this any belief not belief gods gullibility blind obedience authority lack scepticism and are all more reliable indicators and the really dangerous people the sources fanaticism are often none these things they are cynical manipulators the gullible who know precisely what they are doing that claim you have support please note that especially the field theism the leaders believe what they say you believe that you incredibly naive now some brands theism and more precisely some theists tend fanaticism grant you tar all theists with this brush bigotry not reasoned argument and reads like warm for censorship and restriction religious freedom ever read animal farm that straw man and usually discussions with you one has repeat read what have written above not every theism leads fanatism and not all fanatism caused theism the point there correlation and comes from innate features theism some comes from features which some theism has common with some fanaticism your last statement simply isn implied what you say before because you trying sneak innate features all theism the word you groping for some gullibility the way one them shit sherlock why not talk about gullibility instead theism since seems whole lot more relevant the case you have opposed the case you are trying make and say that going forbid religion another your straw men interesting that you have nothing better offer said reads like warm that that because irrational and bogus tirade and has other use than creating nice them split the minds excitable people such are found either side church walls define irrational belief rational believe that reason always useful irrational belief belief that not based upon reason the latter has been discussed for long time with charley wingate one point that the beliefs violate reason often and another that process that does not lend itself rational analysis does not contain reliable information well there glaring paradox here argument that reason useful based reason would circular and argument not based reason would irrational which that bogus self reference not circular and since the evaluation usefulness possible within rational systems allowed oval still begging the question however and though that certainly allowed not rational and you claiming rational and all the risk repeating myself and hearing had that before didn hear refutation before back deal with you can use reason demonstrate that reason useful someone who thinks reason crap won buy you see your argument silly proving mathematical statements needs mathematics and mathematics are therfore circular anybody else think godel was silly the first part the second statement contains information because you don say what the beliefs are the beliefs are strong theism and strong atheism then your statement not general true the second part your sentence patently false counterexample axiomatic datum does not lend itself rational analysis but assumed contain reliable information regardless what process used obtain been speaking religious systems with contradictory definitions god here axiomatic datum lends itself rational analysis what you say here often refuted fallacy have look the discussion the axiom choice and further one can evaluate axioms larger systems out which they are usually derived exist derived you want that way further one can test the consistency and set axioms what you are trying say that some point people always wind saying this datum reliable for particular reason all example not dreaming compared the evidence theists have for their claims the strength their demands makes the whole thing not only irrational but antirational can agree with this until you are specific which theism say that all theism necessarily antirational requires proof which suspect you not have using the traditonal definition gods personal supernatural entities with objective effects this world usually connected morals and the way the world works imo any belief about such gods necessarily irrational that does not mean that people who hold them are principle opposed the exercise intelligence some atheists are also scientists for example the affinity fanatism easily seen has true because believe nothing more than work hypothesis however the beliefs say they are more than work hypothesis don understand this can you formalise your argument person believes system becuase sounds nice that does not make true best work hypothesis however the content that true and that more than work hypothesis testing evaluating evidence for against therefore dismissed because already believed says wrong waste time not possible depending the further contents amalekites idolaters protestants are killed this can have interesting effects peculiar definition interesting but sure now show that belief gods entails the further contents which you speak why aren catholic neighbours out killing the protestants for example maybe they don believe maybe the conjunction asserts and jail kill dissenters that important and the

rashid writes stuff deleted the point post was that rushdie was not being condemned solely for the words his book although this was certainly contributing factor was the whole series actions rushdie and his publishers following the publication the book and the initial media spotlight placed the book that large part led the fatwa the kind fatwa levelled against rushdie not lightly placed and there are any number anti islamic writers both within and outside the islamic world who have not had fatwas made against them here someone who adds fuel explosive situation might charged with incitement riot people die the rioting the charges against him might become even more serious how can rushdie blamed for the deaths people who are demonstrating against him the deaths should blamed the people who dealt with the demonstrations the demonstrators themselves they were violent what lengths will you justify this barbaric behaviour against rushdie once the rushdie situation exploded into the media the muslim voice the matter the book was effectively restricted short video bytes showing the dramatic highlights muslim demonstrations for every twenty newspaper magazine articles interviews etc supporting rushdie there would appear one muslim voice this person was usually selected based how dramatic and incoherent was not his knowledge islam the situation the time this approx twenty one ratio continued throughout the escalation the crisis with rushdie the central spotlight the man the moment the valiant defender everyman right free speech decoupled from responsibility aside interesting that while the hue and cry about freedom speech went some books defaming certain ethnic and religious groups continued banned here was felt that they injured the sensibilities these groups and presented false image which could promote feelings hate towards these groups for muslims this kind double standard was annoying rushdie saw this spotlight golden opportunity lash out organized islam and did with admirable verbal skill the only kind islam which rushdie finds palatable what calls secular islam islam separated from qur prophet god its legislation and most importantly from any intrusion into any political arena fine rushdie made his views known the muslim made their anger his book known the scale the whole affair erupted into global proportions was this time already political situation affecting governments well individuals the situation was serious one with far reaching political implications the centre this turmoil was rushdie throwing fuel the fire engaged personal crusade that made him oblivious any sense caution now you may feel that the person the centre worldwide storm such this has responsibility has reason exercise restraint any kind has obligation perhaps step back momentarily out the spotlight till matters calm down perhaps you even feel that justified boldly defying the anger all those who dare take umbrage his literary work matter what insult they find within perhaps you see him kind secular heroic knight mounted the his media steed doing battle with the dragon islamic fundamentalism well khomeini saw him disingeneous author who grew muslim atmosphere knew well what muslim hold dear who wrote book which mischievously uses certain literary conventions slander insult and attack islam and its most notable personalities who when faced with situation that became worldwide crisis continued with his mischief the world stage the media who even after people were injured and killed because the magnitude and emotion the situation continued his mischief instead having the good sense desist khomeini saw the crisis mischief making grand scale mischief making that grew scale the scale the crisis enlarged the deaths muslims around the world and rushdie continued media mischief even after this was the triggering factor that seemed decide khomeini putting stop the mischief the person the centre all these events was rushdie was the source the continuing mischief all media support government support was just that support the source was rushdie and his publishers who were nothing short ecstatic the publicity and were very happy see rushdie constantly the media the islamic rulings that deal with people who engage this kind grand scale mischief making was applied rushdie you attempts justification are not doing the image islam any good have made attempts justification only explanation image the chief concern muslim apologists for islam and for rushdie muslims willingly relegated themselves becoming sub culture within larger secular culture such that the secular principles and laws had precedence over the laws islam then have doubt that islam would then thought have good image principally because would and large reflect the secular image good image usually means more like your attempts totally exonerating rushdie reflect exactly the attitude that resulted the polarization brought about the crisis iran the situation was monitored for many months when rushdie kept adding fuel the flames through the free worldwide voice that the media gave him the situation was monitored more seriously when even after many deaths occured worldwide rushdie still did not desist the fatwa was pronounced when behaving like total jerk endangers lives and the jerk sees this and still insists his right behave like total jerk has the rug jerked out from under him the muslims didn make such big fuss over the book like issuing death threats and killing publishers one would have heard the fatwa came later much later rushdie didn mouth off much the media the fuss would have died down one would have been killed fatwa would have been passed the whole episode would have fizzled away alt.atheism who

observations alterius are possible except for the banks you couldn possibly afford now let examine the case for there evidence whatsoever that there any such thing big hearted alterian benefactor however exists not exists the grounds that lack evidence for evidence against when have partition like that dismiss hypothesis turning therefore also find evidence support that hypothesis the same grounds before dismiss hypothesis the problem with this that have dismissed all the possible hypotheses and even though know construction that the money arrives every month have proven that can because have dismissed all its potential causes that extremely poor argument and here why premise this money being paid you either your big hearted alterian benefactor bug alterian atm thus each monthly appearance the bucks should happen observation alterius and construction evidence for the existence either the benefactor the bug the atm premise observations alterius are possible except for the banks you couldn possibly afford you forgot include this premise actually premise the cardinality the set possible observations alterius one this clearly contradictory the first not you state properly trouble the basis premise you say that there can evidence either the benefactor the bug but the first premise leads the conclusion that the appearance the bucks should happen evidence for the existence either the benefactor the bug voila screaming contradiction with highlights but strawman argument there only evidence for oneof benefactor bug observation distinguish benefactor from bug possible that not evidence for bug and neither evidence for benefactor nor true say that this hypothetical universe appears exactly there were benefactor bug two statements both would false this still contradictory reduces alterian dosh arriving account due benefactor bug this not evidence for benefactor neither evidence for bug meaning that doesn lend more weight one than the other therefore evidence can exist for benefactor and evidence can exist for bug but relies shift meaning from when you say paraphrased that this not evidence for benefactor for example what you mean that more evidence for benefactor than for bug yes that what mean however you shifted the meaning evidence for benefactor that now means absolute evidence for benefactor rather than relative evidence for benefactor bug not really meant evidence that would tend one over the other think this just communications problem what trying say clumsy way that while buy your theory far relates theism making predictions prayer your rapture example don buy your use occam razor all cases where example one couldn dismiss benefactor bug the grounds simplicity one these necessary explain the dosh brought the one one dismissal process show that would wrong from what you saying this post seems you agree and talking cross purposes still contradiction some sums may help with benefactor bug dosh arrives account implies assuming that either the benefactor bug which responsible the bucks arrive but not both then but implies that and this isn what meant and with necessarily new observation already seen the dosh change those estimates was trying say again clumsy way that would wrong assign probability either these and that precisely what use the razor does the case gods gods are one class hypothesis there are many others belonging set hypotheses one which necessary explain something which otherwise would not satisfactorily explained can thrown out retained grounds non rational preference not science statistics alternatively one could chuck out retain the lot the grounds that the answer can known that the notional probability estimates are effectively useless being equal agnosticism weak atheism they when the set filled the universe caused where gods pink unicorns nothing etc and observation tends one conclusion over the other exactly the point was making think don throw out any these contrary your assertion above that some people simon and they think they are doing excellent science sole point was that they aren only observations which directly contradict the hypothesis where can cause zero after finite number observations only this case get throw any the hypotheses out exactly point though may have been unclear you said the diametric opposite which guess the source confusion was merely trying illustrate the incorrectness doing what trying say that while you are correct say that absence evidence can sometimes evidence absence this does not hold true for all perhaps any versions theism and isn true that those for which does not hold can discarded using the razor the contrary those for which does not hold are exactly those which can discarded using the razor see post the other branch this thread then you seem guilty the contradiction you accuse the razor holds for gods then holds for all like hypotheses which means that you assigning for all though already established that not correct when sum over all simply put anyone who claims have viable proof the existence non existence gods whether inductive best mistaken and worst barking mad luckily make such claim and have specifically said much numerous occasions you wouldn constructing strawman here would you frank although that doesn course rule out being barking mad any case could barking mad spare time with apologies cleese but think you miss the point once again when say that something evidence against hypothesis that doesn imply that observation the said something necessarily falsifies the hypothesis reducing the estimate data zero reduces this quantity still evidence against got that talking about the case when you clearly correct when and not constructing strawman though certainly possible that misunderstood what you saying however any standards system that says when gods are highly unlikely and when gods can dismissed using the razor system purporting inductive proof that gods either don exist are unnecessary explain any all phenomena experience systems such this including those which purport prove that gods exist always contain fallacy upon close examination that not what

aren objective either that what mean when say there objective physics sure can all agree that say gmm but that maths only physics when you relate the real world and can that objectively stuck course this displays blatant bias towards applied science but even theoretical physics gets applied models real world situations based real world observations consider for instance that speed light vacuum invariant this sounds awful lot like objective speed light vacuum axiom that invariant but the two measure get different answers yes call that experimental error but not really error the conventional

two people grotesquely disagree both are right one them wrong and sometimes though perhaps rarely have pretty good idea who one them wrong but never have any information who make our best guess really must make decision the idea right moral judgement meaningless implying that whether peace better than war meaningless question and need not discussed for has correct answer something else short positive assertion would nice hope you can tell and are actually predicated the assumption that values are real statements like these can consistently derive from the relativist assumption that values aren part objective reality relativist who would like answer your question but the way you phrase the question makes unanswerable the concepts right and wrong correct incorrect true false belong the domain epistemological rather than moral questions makes sense ask moral position right wrong although legitimate ask good better than another position let illustrate this point looking the psychological derivatives epistemology and ethics perception and motivation respectively one can certainly ask percept right correct true veridical wrong incorrect false illusory but makes little sense ask motive true false the other hand strange ask whether percept morally good evil but one can certainly ask that question about motives therefore your suggested answers simply can considered they assume you can judge the correctness moral judgment now the problem with that double barrelled agree with the first part that the rightness moral position meaningless question for the reasons stated above but that irrelevant the alleged implication not implication all that one cannot feel peace better than war certainly can make value judgments bad better best without asserting the correctness the position sorry for the lengthy dismissal short answer that when two individuals grotesquely disagree moral issue neither right correct wrong incorrect they simply hold different moral

the theory makes and try observe them you don you observe things that the theory predicts wouldn happen then you have some evidence against the theory the theory can modified incorporate the new observations then you say that false but how does one handle the nonrepeatability the experiment many types experiments the prediction that the observed phenomena will happen again and capable being observed for example chemistry someone may predict the outcome chemical reaction and then actually observe that reaction repeatedly there are several problems here first you are discussing only experimental procedures observational procedures are also useful the main criterion attempting verify idea using make prediction about yet unmade observations the observations could the result experiment they could obsevations activity occuring spontaneossly nature they could even observations the lasting results events long past all that matters that the observations new this what prediction about science not about predicting the future except this very restricted sense secondly repeatability can also take many forms really just the requirement that independent observers able verify the results the observation fossil repeatable since any qualified observer may look this why the specimens are reqtined museum also there the implicit prediction that future fossil finds will correspond the current one new fossils are found often enough that this tested regularly many times new fossil actually falsifies some conclusion made the basis previous fossils unfortunately for you the models that were falsified have alway been peripheral the model evolution now have for instance the front legs tyrannosaurus rex turned out have tremendous muscles rather than being weakly endowed

amusement although you don agree with the fatwa and apparently don think rushdie should killed for his book yet you think not due sympathy for being being under this threat furthermore you base this reaction solely the fact that wrote about particular well known story which true might reflect poorly the absolute truth your religion yet this opinion formed without recourse actually looking see how

existence god our opinions issues such capital punishment and abortion however vary greatly you were attacking the views particular atheist benedikt presume then please present your argument such and not lump all together for the issues let start with abortion personally not support abortion means population control contraception after the fact however support the right any woman have abortion regardless what personal views may because would arrogant tell any individual what she may may not his her body and the domain legislators should not extend into the uterus that opinion and sure many atheists and theists would disagree with not defend homosexuality means population control but certainly defend end itself think most homosexuals would angered hear anyone characterizing their personal relationship nothing more than conscious effort keep population levels down for atheists believing all values are biological have idea what you talking about finally there are the issues war

deficient but basically agree can you see the difference science views beliefs being flawed and new information can obtained improve them ideally this true reality though you have acknowledge that scientists are human scientists have egos and biases some scientists assume particular theory true refuse admit the flaws that theory because ego problems whatever and proceed spend their time and

christain doctrines since seemed germane bill with those who pretend not know what being said and what means when atheists claim that they not know god exists and don know what wants they contradict the bible which clearly says that everyone knows the authority the bible its claim should repeat what wrote above for the sake getting across you may trust the bible but your trusting doesn make any more credible the bible says that everyone knows that clearly reason doubt the bible because not everyone knows your alleged god alleged existance again paraphrasing christian doctrine which very clear this point your dispute not with bill refuted while the species wide condemnation justified those that claim that there evidence for the existence god that his will unknown must deliberately ignore the bible the ignorance itself excuse they don have ignore the bible the bible far from universally accepted the bible not proof god only proof that some people have thought that there was god does prove even that they might have been writing series fiction short stories the case dionetics assuming the writers believed the only thing could possibly prove that they believed and that ignoring the problem whether not all the interpretations and biblical philosophers were correct there are people who have truly never heard the bible again read the faq here again you miss the point the bible itself not the point what contains makes difference who accpets the bible even who unaware its existence christians hold that applies universally because mankind shares the same nature and the same fate and the same innate knowledge god see above you read post with same care read the faq wouldn having this conversation bill freedom you are free ignore god the same way you are free ignore gravity

undeniable influence you ignore god the other hand doesn generally show the supermarket except the tabloids god doesn exert rationally undeniable influence gravity obvious gods aren said the evidence there you just don accept here least agree bill secondly human reason very comforatble with the concept god much that itself intrinsic our nature human reason always comes back the question god every generation and human reason hasn always come back the existance god has usually come back the existance god other words doesn generally come back the xtian god comes back whether there any god and much oriental philosophic history generally doesn pop the idea god much the question what natural forces are and which ones are out there from world wide view human nature just makes wonder how the universe came and what force are currently control natural tendancy believe god only exists religious wishful thinking yes human reason does always come back the existence god having this discussion

physicist named joseph maglich has invented and partially developed atomic fusion reactor which calls migma which uses non radioactive deuterium fuel available nearly unlimited quantities from sea water does not produce radioactive waste can converted directly into electricity with out energy wasting steam turbines and can constructed small enough power house large enough power city and unlike the tokamaks and laser fusion monstrosities that read about migma works already producing least three watts power for every watt put new times version pages and then there are the cold fusion experiments that have been the news lately originally conducted university utah researchers stanley pons and martin fleischmann some navy researchers the china lake naval weapons center california under the direction chemist melvin miles finally took the trouble collect the bubbles coming from such apparatus had them analyzed with mass spectrometry techniques and found helium which proves that atomic fusion did indeed take place and enough explain the excess heat generated there are good indications that the two called laws thermodynamics are not absolute for example the late physicist dewey larson developed comprehensive general unified theory the physical universe which calls the reciprocal system which describes detail several books such nothing but motion and the universe motion which the physical universe has two distinct halves the material half and anti matter half with continuous cycle matter and energy passing between them with out the heat death predicted thermodynamic laws his theory explains the universe much better than modern orthodox theories including phenomena that orthodox physicists and astronomers are still scratching their heads about and self consistent every way some free energy devices might tapping into that energy flow seemingly converting low quality energy into high quality energy also certain religious organizations such sant mat and eckankar teach their members that the physical universe only the lowest least dozen major levels existence like parallel universes analogous channels described books like the path the masters julian johnson and eckankar the key secret worlds sri paul twitchell for example the next level from the physical universe commonly called the astral plane long time members these groups have learned soul travel

because their ted intere the government needed intervene the government does not intervene then the total supply energy resources from the earth will continue decline and will soon run out prices for energy will increase and pollution and its harmful effects including the greenhouse effect acid rain smog radioactive contamination oil spills rape the land strip mining etc will continue increase the government should subsidize research and development free energy inventors and universities subsidize private production until the producers can make their own and subsidize consumption low income consumers free energy hardware the long range effects such government intervention would wide spread and profound the quantity energy demanded from conventional energy producer coal mining companie oil companie and countries electric utilitie etc would drop near zero forcing their employees seek work elsewhere energy resources coal uranium oil and gas would left the ground prices for conventional energy supplies would also drop near zero while the price free energy equipment would start out high but drop supply increases happened with vcr personal computers etc costs producing products that require large quantities energy produce would decrease along with their prices consumers consumers would able realize the opportunity costs paying electric utility bills buying home heating fuel tourism would benefit and increase because travelers would not have spend their money for gasoline for their cars government tax revenue from gasoline and other fuels would have obtained some other way and energy could longer used motive excuse for making war many conventional energy producer would out business but society whole and the earth environment and ecosystems would benefit

known and well understood have you considered josephus the jewish historian who also wrote jesus addition the four gospel accounts are very much harmony also well known that the comments josephus relating jesus were inserted badly later editors for the four gospels being harmony the issue jesus you know not what you speak here are few contradictions starting with the trial and continuing through the assension the death judas after the betrayal jesus acts now this man judas purchased field with the reward iniquity and falling headlong burst asunder the midst and all his bowels gushed out matt and judas cast down the pieces silver the temple and departed and went and hanged himself and the chief priests bought with them the potter field what was jesus prediction regarding peter denial before the cock crow matthew before the cock crow twice mark how many times did the cock crow mar and the second time the cock crew and peter called mind the word that jesus said unto him before the cock crow twice thou shalt deny thrice and when thought thereon wept mat then began curse and swear saying know not the man and immediately the cock crew mat and peter remembered the word jesus which said unto him before the cock crow thou shalt deny thrice and went out and wept bitterly luk and peter said man know not what thou sayest and immediately while yet spake the cock crew luk and the lord turned and looked upon peter and peter remembered the word the lord how had said unto him before the cock crow thou shalt deny thrice joh jesus answered him wilt thou lay down thy life for sake verily verily say unto thee the cock shall not crow still thou hast denied thrice joh peter then denied again and immediately the cock crew destruction cities what said was jeremiah was zechariah this interesting because matthew quotes prophesy that was never made not the only time does this either mat then was fulfilled that which was spoken jeremy the prophet saying and they took the thirty pieces silver the price him that was valued whom they the children israel did value zechariah nothing jeremiah remotely like what was the color the robe placed jesus during his trial scarlet matthew purple john the time the crucifiction mark says the third hour but john says the sixth hour noon was when the sentence was passed inscription the cross matthew this jesus the king the jews mark the king the jews luke this the king the jews john jesus nazareth the king the jews what did they give him drink vinegar matthew wine with myrrh mark women the cross matthew said many stood far off including mary magdaline mary the mother james and the mother zebedee children mark and luke speak many far off and mark includes mary magdeline and mary the mother james the less john says that jesus mother stood the cross along with her sister and mary magdalene jesus last words matt and about the ninth hour jesus cried with loud voice saying eli eli lama sabachthani that say god god why hast thou forsaken jesus when cried again with loud voice yielded the ghost luke and when jesus had cried with loud voice said father unto thy hands commend spirit and having said thus gave the ghost john when jesus therefore had received the vinegar said finished and bowed his head and gave the ghost events the crucifiction matthew says that the veil the temple was rent that there was earthquake and that was dark from the sixth the ninth hour that graves opened and bodies the saints arose and went into jeruselem appearing many beating jesus the resurection mark and luke speak darkness and the veil the temple being rent but mention earthquake risen saints john the only one who mentions jesus side being peirced burial jesus matthew says the jews asked pilate for guard prevent the body from being stolen the disciples and for the tomb sealed all this was supposedly done but the other gospels not mention these precautions how long was jesus the tomb depends where you look matthew gives jesus prophesying that will spend three days and three nights the heart the earth and mark has after three days meta treis emeras will rise again far can see from quick look the prophecies have after three days but the post resurrection narratives have the third day time the resurection matthew says sunday dawn mark says the sun was rising and john says was dark who was the empty tomb mat the end the sabbath began dawn toward the first day the week came mary magdalene and the other mary see the sepulchre mar and when the sabbath was past mary magdalene and mary the mother james and salome had bought sweet spices that they might come and anoint him joh the first day the week cometh mary magdalene early when was yet dark unto the sepulchre and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre whom did they see the tomb mat and behold there was great earthquake for the angel the lord descended from heaven and came and rolled back the stone from the door and sat upon mat his countenance was like lightning and his raiment white snow mat and for fear him the keepers did shake and became dead men mat and the angel answered and said unto the women fear not for know that seek jesus which was crucified mar and entering into the sepulchre they saw young man sitting the right side clothed long white garment and they were affrighted luk and came pass they were much perplexed thereabout behold two men stood them shining garments joh and seeth two angels white sitting the one the head and the other the feet where the body jesus had lain belief that the disciples stole jesus body matthew says the guard was paid tell this story but other gospel makes this claim appearences the risen jesus matthew says angel the tomb told the two marys and that jesus also told them tell the disciples meet him galilee the disciples then went mountain previously agreed opon and met jesus there this was his only appearance except the women the tomb matthew only devotes five verses the visit with the disciples mark says that jesus walked with two the disciples the country and that they told the rest the disciples who refused believe later appeared the disciples mealtime luke says two followers went the same day that jesus rose from the dead emmaus village eight miles from jeruselem and there jesus jioned them but was unrecognised while they ate meal together that evening they finally recognised jesus whereopon dissapeared returning once jeruselem they told the disciples their experience and suddenly jesus appeared among them frightening them they thought was spirit jesus then ate some fish and honey and then preached them john says jesus appeared the disciples the evening the day arrose jeruselem where they were hiding breathed the holy ghost opon them but thomas was not present and refused believe eight days later jesus joined the disciples again the same place and this time convinced thomas once more jesus made appearance the disciples the sea tiberias but again was not recognised after telling them cast their netson the other side the boat jesus becomes known them and prepares bread and fish for them they all eat together and converse the book acts further adds the confusion says that jesus showed himself the apostles for period days after his resurection thus contradicting matthew mark luke and john and spoke them things pertaining the kingdom god and when had spoken these things while they beheld was taken and cloud recieved him out their sight and while they looked steadfastly toward heaven went two men stood them white apparel which also said men galilee why stand gazing into heaven this same jesus which taken from you into heaven shall comein like manneras have seen him into heaven acts paul outdoes every other authority saying that jesus was seen persons between the time the resurection and the assension although does not say where also claims that himself one born out due time also saw jesus cor the ascension matthew says nothing about mark casually says that jesus was recieved into heaven after was finished talking with the disciples jeruselem luke says jesus led the desciples bethany and that while blessed them was parted from them and carried into heaven john says nothing about acts contradicts all the above see previous section when second coming mat verily say unto you this generation shall not pass till all these things fulfilled mar verily say unto you that this generation shall not pass till all these things done luk verily say unto you this generation shall not pass away till all fulfilled thessalonians how many apostles were office between the resurection and ascention corinthians matthew minus one from acts mathias not elected until after resurrection mat then the eleven disciples went away into galilee into mountain where jesus had appointed them ascend heaven and elijah went whirlwind into heaven kings man hath ascended heaven but that came down from heaven the son man john you can see there are number contradictions the account the trial crucifiction and resurection jesus these are good witnesses you would think that they could get some these important details right fact cannot find very many points where they agree you would think that they could least agree some the points they were supposedly observing because the fact that there much

with quicktime the effects scaling and thought some more tests first all felt that original speed test was perhaps less than realistic the movie had been using only had frames was version the very first movie created with the compact video compressor decided something little longer would give closer real world results for better for worse pulled out copy space odyssey that had recorded off while back about fifteen minutes into the movie there sequence where the earth shuttle approaching the space station specifically digitized portion about seconds duration zooming the rotating space station figured this would give reasonable amount movement between frames increase the differences between frames digitized only frames per second give total frames captured the raw footage resolution pixels with the spigot card centris quarter size resolution from pal source then imported into premiere and put through the compact video compressor keeping the fps frame rate created two versions the movie one scaled resolution the other resolution used the default quality setting premiere and specified key frame every ten frames then ran the movie through the same raw speed test program used for the results been reporting earlier result playback rate over frames per second that right was getting much higher result than with that first short test movie just for fun copied the movie external hard disk quantum and ran from there this time the playback rate was only about frames per second obviously the internal hard disk also quantum significant contributor the speed playback modified speed test program allow the specification optional scaling factors and tried playing back the movie scaled size this time the playback speed was over fps clearly the poster who observed poor performance scaled playback was seeing quicktime action not try tests with quicktime but don think entirely compatible with centris and system unscaled the playback rate for the movie was over fps the other thing tried was saving versions the movie with preferred playback rates greater than and seeing how well they played from within movieplayer with quicktime normal synchronized playback preferred rate fps didn work too well the playback was very jerky compare this with the raw speed test which achieved fps with ease can believe that quicktime synchronization code would add this much overhead think the slowdown was coming from the mac system task switching preferred rate fps seemed work fine couldn see any evidence stutter fps think could see slight stutter but with four key frames every second was hard tell guess could try recreating the movies with longer interval between the key frames make the stutter more noticeable course this will also improve the compression slightly which

kind polygons shaded texturemapped more comes into play with fast routines than just polygons would nice know exaclty what system vga start but what processor and few the specifics the implementation you need give more info you want get any answers don want texture mapped cause did asked for them just simple and fast routine filled polygons for the processor for minimum maybe can find good one for ideally want polyn function that can clip user defined viewport and write arbitrary location memory course the chances for game that and you have listed the characteristics that you are looking for think you may have left out few important parameters the polygons are all convex they have less than sides you are drawing meshes walls doors etc believe that the algorithms you can get that will only draw convex polygons can much more efficient than those that can draw concave self intersecting polygons this efficiency can largely attributed the fact that simple convex polygons only have left and right edge each scan line complex figure type polygons can bit trickier the less than sides specification especially very small number like allow othe optimisations made thus for high speed game application think you are looking for code that exploits and hence limited drawing simple convex polygons finding something like that are pretty remote guess need the source with and guess would need asm otherwise too slow seen some polygon routines and they all been waaay too slow its for vector graphics program been hunting high and low may have been that they were very general purpose algorithms you limit yourself four sided simple convex polygons think you might suprised how fast algorithm with asm block move fill each scan line might actually for polyn function asm and can find one anywhere that can use found one two polyn functions but asm pretty bad won even try rewrite them lucas comp.graphics apr comp graphics frequently asked questions faq archive name graphics faq this

resolve this anti aliasing thing this just some magic number make work better with certain processor well bit colour could for improved resolution but bits per channel seems like bit excessive have seen paper that quoted bits per channel bits for computational precision more than that would seem wasted perhaps the frame buffer uses another colourspace which needs more bits represent the full range rgb cube compact encoding most likely however that there are two separate bit bits per component frame buffers this set called double buffering allows complex picture built one buffer while the other buffer containing the previous frame displayed this makes for smoother animation sadly have access none them just dec sigh well hey you want brag about numbers the range can take pxg turbo card

difficult than dealing with the dct lzw and fax encoding the image data the majority the libraries which deal with tiff are dedicated these other issues rather than with simply decoding the tags and parameters perhaps people are overwhelmed comparison with some rather simpleminded formats such gif pcx and bmp but suggest that tiff complex doomed failure ludicrous that doesn mean that gif isn fine but don even thing about using many instances gif very nice for use low end photos applications and for screen grabs and such but would never for high volume high resolution systems fax nice but doesn color and gif doesn all that well jpeg nice for high resolution color but slow for low end the advantage tiff brings the table its ability handle all these situations and then some naturally more complex but rather propose tiff imaging solutions over imaging systems based having deal with file formats anyday you may find that tiff too complicated for your personal tastes but please don wrail

keep adding and clamp the resultant values you might have clamp the lower bound you have dark bulbs but that another issue you get some illumination equation like this lambient ldiffuse light

controlled from one eight parameters read from common parameter file which must vms anyway your default directory some utilities will share parameters and use the same parameter for different purpose can get bit confusing setting series operations the standard pci environment contains scripting language very similar ibm basic but which allows you automate the process setting parameters for common complicated lengthy difficult series utility executions vms can also invoke utilities independently from dcl command procedure there also optional programming library which allows you write compiled language programs which can interface with read from write the pci data structures database file parameter file the pci software designed specifically for remote sensing images but requires such level operator expertise that once you reach the level where you can handle images you can figure out ways handle few other things well for instance the tape package offers utility for reading headerless multi band what adobe photoshop the macintosh calls raw data from tape number different interleave orders this turns out ideal for manipulating the graphic arts industry format would probably haven tried handle targa and above all however you have know what you doing you can screw the nth degree and have start over worth noting that the pci database file designed contain not only raster image data but vectors for overlaying map information entered via digitizing table land use and all manner other information observe that remote sensing image tape often contains all manner information about the spectral bands latitude longitude time date etc the original satellite pass all this can into the pci database believe that workstations the built display used vax systems other than workstations pci supports only couple specific third party display systems the name gould deanza seems come mind one personal workarounds was display program which would display directly from pci database file peritek vct bus bit directcolor display subsystem pci software could overkill your case seems designed for the very high end applications users those for whom mac largely doesn suffice although you know the gap getting smaller all the time probably coincidence that pci located canada country which does lot its land resource management via remote sensing believe the canadian

problem any resources can lay hands the comp windows pex faq gaskins pexlib programming manual vendors documentation posting this article itself comp graphics and virtually the same article with test program demonstrating the problem comp windows pex the problem hard describe without pictures hence this article longish you can run pexlib programs and are interested encourage you build and run the test program comp windows pex see the effect yourself and play with approach dealing with depends the utility code from the above gaskins book instructions for fetching via anonymous ftp are given the problem solved eliminate minimize stitching artifacts resulting from the use buffering with polylines that are coplanar with filled areas the interpolated values along line will differ slightly due roundoff error from the interpolated values across area even when the endpoints the line are coincident with vertices the area because this tossup whether the buffer will allow the line pixels the area pixels displayed visually the result tends dashed line effect even though the line supposed solid using the pexlib api approach solution use two slightly different pex view mapping transforms two view table entries one for the areas and one for the lines the pex structures immediate mode output must organized that one view table index always effect for areas and the other always effect for lines the result slight shift npc coordinates for the lines attempt bias the tossup situations favor the lines this shift effected moving the front and back clipping planes used the pexlib view table entry for lines just hair backwards smaller vrc coordinates compared their positions the view table entry used for areas this means that when point transformed npc its value will slightly bigger comes from line than comes from area thus accomplishing the desired bias would expect the roundoff errors which cause the problem amount few units most out the entire dynamic range the buffer typically from not bit buffers therefore seems that tiny fraction the range vrc between the front and back clip planes ought suffice reliably fix the stitching but fact experience shows that the shift has much the range empirically worst when the npc component the slope the surface high when appears more less edge the viewer only bits the buffer have any dependable meaning this amount great that one problem replaced another sometimes the polylines show through areas which they are supposed lie behind observed the problem both hewlett packard and digital workstation pex servers approximately the same degree the test program demonstrates the problem mit pexlib implementation this version known compile and run system with pex open questions why does this happen configuring the pex view table wrongly

okay got enough replies about the kubota kenai denali systems that will post summary their capabilities haven actually used one seen one take the specs with grain salt like see independent review one against say sgi indigo extreme something basically the kenai workstations are dec alpha axp based workstations that run osf dec and will likely run windows the future they are binary compatible with digital osf alpha axp implementation denali their graphics subsystem which upgradable the field simply adding transformation engines the two main kenai machines are the imaging and graphics workstation and the imaging and graphics workstation cpu dec alpha axp mhz dec alpha axp mhz chip cache onboard cache word size bit bit memory initial memory future specmark specint specfp graphics transform modules frame buffer modules frame buffer bit bit double buffered double buffered buffer bit bit alpha stencil bit bit stereo support yes yes other both machines will double buffer stereo output per window both have auxiliary video output that ntsc and pal storage internal fixed internal removable max capacity both have turbochannel sec scsi ethernet and fddi application programming interfaces both have libraries for xlib motif mit pexlib dec pexlib dec phigs and okay now the real stuff the kenai stations work with graphics architecture known denali the denali comes three models the and they use decchip superscalar risc processor mhz their capabilities are follows vectors vectors vectors vectors triangles triangles pixel flat shaded connected pixel gouraud shaded connected

bilinear zoom trilinear interp mvoxels mvoxels lookup table bit trilinear interpolation bit voxels configurations frame buffer modules transform engine mod you can see these are pretty powerful workstations and the best part the pricing would recommend that you call kubota for more information their number sure they send you information you may want some prices low end kenai series tem and

discussion about observed playback speeds with quicktime the effects scaling and thought some more tests first all felt that original speed test was perhaps less than realistic the movie had been using only had frames was version the very first movie created with the compact video compressor decided something little longer would give closer real world results for better for worse pulled out copy space odyssey that had recorded off while back about fifteen minutes into the movie there sequence where the earth shuttle approaching the space station specifically digitized portion about seconds duration zooming the rotating space station figured this would give reasonable amount movement between frames increase the differences between frames digitized only frames per second give total frames captured the raw footage resolution pixels with the spigot card centris quarter size resolution from pal source then imported into premiere and put through the compact video compressor keeping the fps frame rate created two versions the movie one scaled resolution the other resolution used the default quality setting premiere and specified key frame every ten frames then ran the movie through the same raw speed test program used for the results been reporting earlier result playback rate over frames per second that right was getting much higher result than with that first short test movie just for fun copied the movie external hard disk quantum and ran from there this time the playback rate was only about frames per second obviously the internal hard disk also quantum significant contributor the speed playback modified speed test program allow the specification optional scaling factors and tried playing back the movie scaled size this time the playback speed was over fps clearly the poster who observed poor performance scaled playback was seeing quicktime action not try tests with quicktime but don think entirely compatible with centris and system unscaled the playback rate for the movie was over fps the other thing tried was saving versions the movie with preferred playback rates greater than and seeing how well they played from within movieplayer with quicktime normal synchronized playback preferred rate fps didn work too well the playback was very jerky compare this with the raw speed test which achieved fps with ease can believe that quicktime synchronization code would add this much overhead think the slowdown was coming from the mac system task switching preferred rate fps seemed work fine couldn see any evidence stutter fps think could see slight stutter but with four key frames every second was hard tell guess could try recreating the movies with longer interval between the key frames make the stutter more noticeable course this will also improve the compression slightly which should speed the playback performance even more lawrence oliveiro fone computer services dept fax university waikato electric mail ldo waikato hamilton new zealand gmt afraid missed the start this thread but there are three factors that can significantly affect quicktime playback speed that you may want take into account playback bit depth things are fastest when you play movie back the bit depth was compressed for this usually bit but other depths are course possible type scaling optimized for double size scaling other scaling factors hit peformance much harder playback window position movieplayer limits your window placement choices advantagous pixel boundaries default not sure about premiere any combination those can radically alter playback performance image size course another biggie giving the movie player lots ram can also make real difference forgive these were mentioned earlier the thread peter lee peter lee software

viewing jpeg files apr ucbeh san edu lwilson ucbeh san edu writes can view jpeg files without special hardware lucy wilson access services librarian college engineering university cincinnati yup most jpeg viewers seem require specific video drivers since they support only specific video cards some have the standard ibm bios video support for the vga colour mode but they leave out the other cards such the hercules monochrome card which the way can give very good picture quality your dithering works right can remember the name jpeg viewer since usually convert jpeg gif before viewing them but some require vesa driver for the video cards you don need any special hardware view jpeg except perhaps for vga card and maybe processor most people these days program for computers and neglect the rest the processors have clone nec processor and hercules card have had write some programs that they will view gif and animations for the vga and other colour graphics boards monochrome hercules card use floyd steinberg dithers and have found that one does something neat with the colour palette the resulting dithered image gives much greater detail than normally would when viewed other monochrome systems compushow has dithering but does the standard thing with the image palette before dithering way gives brighter more detailed image anyway enough rambling the wrong direction the final point

unreasonably low apparent precision buffering that encountered different pex implementations can find any discussion this problem any resources can lay hands the comp windows pex faq gaskins pexlib programming manual vendors documentation the problem solved eliminate minimize stitching artifacts resulting from the use buffering with polylines that are coplanar with filled areas the interpolated values along line will differ slightly due roundoff error from the interpolated values across area even when the endpoints the line are coincident with vertices the area because this tossup whether the buffer will allow the line pixels the area pixels displayed visually the result tends dashed line effect even though the line supposed solid using the pexlib api approach solution use two slightly different pex view mapping transforms two view table entries one for the areas and one for the lines the pex structures immediate mode output must organized that one view table index always effect for areas and the other always effect for lines the result slight shift npc coordinates for the lines attempt bias the tossup situations favor the lines this shift effected moving the front and back clipping planes used the pexlib view table entry for lines just hair backwards smaller vrc coordinates compared their positions the view table entry used for areas this means that when point transformed npc its value will slightly bigger comes from line than comes from area thus accomplishing the desired bias would expect the roundoff errors which cause the problem amount few units most out the entire dynamic range the buffer typically from not bit buffers therefore seems that tiny fraction the range vrc between the front and back clip planes ought suffice reliably fix the stitching but fact experience shows that the shift has much the range empirically worst when the npc component the slope the surface high when appears more less edge the viewer only bits the buffer have any dependable meaning this amount great that one problem replaced another sometimes the polylines show through areas which they are supposed lie behind observed the problem both hewlett packard and digital workstation pex servers approximately the same degree the test program demonstrates the problem mit pexlib implementation this version known compile and run system with pex open questions why does this happen configuring the pex view table wrongly there systematic difference interpolation for lines opposed areas pixel centers versus corners which could corrected for are pex implementors wantonly discarding precision their interpolators something else what about can fix use the view table allow better precision buffered hlhsr there another approach can take remove the stitching artifacts just out luck here ibm have the same problem with our workstations was also shocked when first realized that you have offset lines from fills about bits assuming bit buffer this seems huge but only the dynamic range those terms doesn seem bad what happening that the interpolation not totally linear due mainly roundoff believe the polygon not planar but more like ruffles potato chip ditto with lines when you start end different values the ridges are out phase resulting the stitch effect you have the same problem you try draw polygon right top another but with different vertices you will likely see smeared effect where they overlap example try polygon polygon your implementation correct fact similar trick when rendering primitives that have lines and polygons such nurbs surfaces with isoparametric lines without the trick the lines appear stitched you say when the application draws lines polygons independently the system does not have the smarts automatically the

this front end second array pixel processors result denali and freedome overlap significantly performance and functionality both design teams also appear have similar philosophies with respect modularity scalability and market penetration there remain however several important differences between the kpc and products evans and sutherland designed freedom high end developer dream system with plenty performance potential and flexibility its favor freedom has configurations from two sixteen floating point units border range that starts and ends higher price and performance levels than denali all freedom systems include large fixed number pixel processors that support broader variety color blending functions the freedom design treats its entire image memory general purpose memory allowing developers allocate flexible basis number special purpose applications finally provided freedom with very flexible otput and video integration features for multimedia and simulation applications note that kpc working auxiliary board for ntsc and pal output that will not require external video encoder programmable output features however will remain much more flexible the kpc design team contrast made denali more end user system entry version have better performance range and flexibility than low end freedom configurations and come more realistic mainstream price points denali does not need many modules freedome because uses deeper scan conversion pipeline support each one resulting better cost performance characteristics although both products provide strong support for imaging and volume rendering kpc recognized that not all users will want even mix these capabilities denali configuration flexibility allows customers effect purchase geometric and pixel processing capabilities separately and upgrade them separately needed both companies have implemented hardware texture mapping workstation price levels way attack sgi more expensive vgxt and realityengine systems the only other products provide this capability kpc supports point sampling and bilinear interpolation textures hardware but provides only software support for the higher qualtiy tri linear interpolated mipmapping method balance however denali provideds bettern overall texturing capabilities than for most applications aside from being much more affordable kpc solutions deliver more parallelism for texture processing and more off screen memory for general graphics data storage implementing texture mapping its transformation modules foces customers move very quickly higher

southeren who does not have access net account can anyone provide with colour space transform that would emulate the effects red green colour blindness have had quick look the computer graphics literature with results perhaps someone who has access medical information could help certainly reference follows bear mind that there are least two conditions which may called red green colour blind one protanopia caused lack major dysfunction the cones those that respond best long wavelengths this gives much reduced red green and red violet discrimination and also means that reds look dimmer than than they people with normal vision the other deuteranopia due missing dysfunctional cones although can also caused lack the cone difference signals the retina also gives reduced red green discrimination but red violet unaffected unlike protanopia reds are not dimmer than normal uniform chromaticity diagram the horseshoe shaped one you see computer graphics books there single confusion point for each type colour deficiency colours which are confused lie straight lines radiating from this point for protanopia the point very close the far red corner for deuteranopia the point note that different experimental investigations the literature give slightly different values for these depending the precise details the experimental setup random errors and the values quoted are typical all colours line are seen the same which colour actually seen this problem has now been solved tests people with one normal eye and one affected eye have shown that there axis for each type disorder onto which all the colours collapse for protanopes this joins and the spectral locus the edge the horseshoe for deuteranopes the line very similar joining and convert colours from normal vision simulated protanopia duuteranopia plot the colour uniform chromaticity diagram construct line from this point the appropriate confusion point find the intersection this line with the appropriate axis line this the new chromaticity the best reference for this meyer greenberg colour defective vision and computer graphics displays ieee computer graphics and applications you will also need decent reference basic colour science you are not familiar with the cie xyz colour model and the uniform chromaticity scale diagram would like write program probably ppm filter allow previewing images check for sufficient contract for colour blind users not being colour blind myself this bit difficult yes this certainly possible you will need the chromaticities the red green and blue phosphors the monitor you intend display the images and the chromaticity the white point this information can measured obtained from the manufacturer posted list some monitor chromaticities couple weeks ago the procedure for each pixel follows some lookup tables might help here convert rgb cie xyz this simple matrix multiplication once you have the monitor data retaining the component for later convert xyz chromaticity coordinates using find the equation the line step above find the intersection step convert back from xyz using the value from step ensure that this new colour can displayed your monitor

file process have make the modifications the bit image this makes sense because the main use only viewing images doing many changes image should keep all modifications buffer and then before making the operations bit image should simplify the operation list for unnecessary operations think about what you are saying here the bit image quantised down bits many similar colours are mapped onto single palette colour this colour gets modified fairly arbitrary ways you then want apply these modifications back the bit file you have find which colours mapped this one palette colour you could this copying the bit file bit file and using the extra bits hold the index entry having done this you need something them what exactly apply the difference rgb between the original and modified palette entry each colour the group this could generate colours with rgb outside the range would also lead discontinuities when different parts smooth colour gradient mapped several different palette entries you could interpolate from full modification modification depending how far each colour was from the palette entry however suspect this would look rather odd summary what said previous posting still holds how would you suggest doing colour editing bit file how would you group related colours edit them together only global changes could done unless the software were very different and much more complicated you want colour editing bit image you need much more powerfull software which readily available commercially other words edit bit file you need software built for the job tacking mods

discussed about error which shows images only bit and suggestion above works perfectly with far have seen colormap editing window that there must colormap anyway the problems you present are exist anyway and didn tried solve them all because would not make such problems programs the first place gamma and color corrections are easily done bit image presented there need make tricks from bit quantized image back bit image how would you suggest doing colour editing bit file how would you group related colours edit them together only global changes could done unless the software were very different and much more complicated you writing about situation that user want edit images bit and user want edit individual colors your questions the way jumps off the discussion bit solution doesn work because there colormap withing real bit image you see user see bit image going back bit silly about changing individual colors bit quantized rasterized image changing individual colors colormap useless most cases the image quantized and rasterized small change may make serious errors anywhere the image allows this feature but don recommend use with the mentioned type images moreover not paint program you can only make those global changes full bit changing individual colors sounds like paint program job person have bit screen there need for tricks get the original bit image modified because user don see full bit image there need make approximations and not possible modify individual colors but individual pixels pixel groups image rasterized select indiavidual color there could cursor window which shows true color image cursor window area selecting individual color possible from that don have thought very much bit painting programs never seen such good view and are not planned make such not mention bit painting program bit screen yes again what was wrong with saved bit quantized rasterized images bit jpegs jpeg not designed for that also human expect that bit will saved bit image say person would like crop part the image and save then expected that the image still the same were designed without thinking about human interface and how human expect the program work design error have heard were designed first for bit images files but were not good idea take full bit images without making major change the original design even all screen images are bit the processed images and saved images could have been bit very easily instead bit before anybody will make note yes may well make lift where means that the lift goes down and down means that the lift goes

any one number other very successful file format people seem perfectly capable dealing with these others well yeah but unlike tiff they all substantially more than encode rectangular bitmaps and the others are hardly trouble free hear that quite common for cgm implementations not interoperate the annoying thing about tiff that that along with the useful options there are stupid options the most egregious example that rather than picking byte order and bit order and using consistently all tiff files byte and bit order are options and all tiff readers all machines matter what their natural byte order have prepared byte swapping there are four slightly different fax formats again any one them would have been adequate rgb images can stored pixel component complexity without function etc etc also note that the tiff doc says that aldus experiments show that lzw reliably compresses well better than any the fax formats suggesting that none the fax formats are really useful what worse lot the formats aren even implemented very well lzw limits code words bits while bits would have provided substantially better compression and the lzw method compresses bytes rather than pixels but the absolute worst thing about tiff that any vendor can register proprietary tiff codes and formats without even publicly documenting them this means that there way write tiff reader that can reliably

quantized images and only the saving the image file process have make the modifications the bit image this makes sense because the main use only viewing images doing many changes image should keep all modifications buffer and then before making the operations bit image should simplify the operation list for unnecessary operations think about what you are saying here the bit image quantised down bits many similar colours are mapped onto single palette colour this colour gets modified fairly arbitrary ways you then want apply these modifications back the bit file you have find which colours mapped this one palette colour suppose you don know what about have discussed discussed about error which shows images only bit and suggestion above works perfectly with look consistent first you post something that seems suggest that you see being bit program some sort error post and asy not bug meant like that you post and say not bug you never said was have misunderstood etc now you are saying discussed about error which shows images only bit you would make your mind what you are claiming would make the discussion lot easier far have seen colormap editing window that there must colormap anyway the problems you present are exist anyway and didn tried solve them all because would not make such problems programs the first place sorry don understand what you are saying here aware that english not your native language and have tried hard fathom your meaning but this paragraph defeats gamma and color corrections are easily done bit image presented there need make tricks from bit quantized image back bit image yes originally said global changes are easily possible but this statement contradicts what you said earlier wrote something about making color modifications quickly with bit quantized images and only the saving the image file process have make the modifications the bit image how would you suggest doing colour editing bit file how would you group related colours edit them together only global changes could done unless the software were very different and much more complicated you writing about situation that user want edit images bit and user want edit individual colors your questions the way jumps off the discussion bit don think actually you were talking about loading bit image into quantising manipulating the colours the colour editor then somewhow applying these changes the bit file when you exit lets you edit individual colours where this sudden jumping off the topic solution doesn work because there colormap withing real bit image yes aware there colourmap bit file you see user see bit image going back bit silly not understand what this statement supposed mean about changing individual colors bit quantized rasterized image changing individual colors colormap useless most cases the image quantized and rasterized small change may make serious errors anywhere the image what are you saying allows this feature but don recommend use with the mentioned type images now see thew problem first you want extend allow editing bit previews bit images then point out problems with this now you are saying there problem because you personally happen not use those parts the program that cause the problem moreover not paint program you can only make those global changes not sure what you are saying here certainly one can make local changes full bit changing individual colors sounds like paint program job person have bit screen there need for tricks get the original bit image modified because user don see full bit image there need make approximations and not possible modify individual colors but individual pixels pixel groups image rasterized select indiavidual color there could cursor window which shows true color image cursor window area selecting individual color possible from that yes that one possible approach would find program that took such approach clumsy however don have thought very much bit painting programs never seen such good view and are not planned make such not mention bit painting program bit screen well here agree you have not thought through very much you don seem have consistent point make and contradict yourself from one post the next all have off days perhaps you should step back and think this one through yes again what was wrong with saved bit quantized rasterized images bit jpegs jpeg not designed for that said the last post jpeg compression algorithm way saving disk space trading off quality against compression fail see what the problem you have not proposed any workable alternatives also human expect that bit will saved bit image speak for yourself you are the only person have met spoken who having quantised bit image down bits expects this process somehow reverse when the file saved keeping all modificvations that heve been made the bit image palette perhaps that why you yused the singular say person would like crop part the image and save then expected that the image still the same look next time you import bit image into look carefully the main control panel tells you how many colours have been allocated the bit image makes abundantly clear that you are not editing the original bit file you are the only person who claims this confusing were designed without thinking about human interface and how human expect the program work design error design error the same bug read lips program for viewing and modifying bit images lets you import other images shows would say good deal thought about the human interface and everyone else seems use happily for the purpose was designed for makes false claims have heard were designed first for bit images files but were not good idea take full bit images without making major change the original design you would come with solid logical well argued and lucid description precisely how these proposed extensions would work feel free post them far you have not done even all screen images are bit the processed images and saved images could have been bit very easily instead bit argh after all this comment like that very easily ahead and code easy alternatively look the terms import and non reversible transformation before anybody will make note yes may well make lift where means that the lift goes down and down means that the lift goes and put note this design solution the manuals however even the manuals tells the correct situation doesn solve the problem americans the lift just example think this bit exageration what you are actually saying you got into lift elevator you are the states and

sigchi fees remainded the same but whereas before sigchi membership included uist and human factors conferences proceedings these are now extra cost option bundling that back into the basic rate equivalent services have gone cost sigois membership cost has but they also split out the computer supported cooperative work conference proceedings that used included with membership adding that cost back means this sig also has doubled its membership fee what really galls that the acm sent out brochures couple months ago touting their new approach providing member services and tried make sound like they were offering new services but with the exception couple like siggraph all the plus services appear just splitting the costs into smaller piles that they don look big but their recommended

myname mysite specify your correct mail address reply what jpeg jpeg pronounced jay peg standardized image compression mechanism jpeg stands for joint photographic experts group the original name the committee that wrote the standard jpeg designed for compressing either full color gray scale digital images natural real world scenes does not work well non realistic images such cartoons line drawings jpeg does not handle black and white bit per pixel images nor does handle motion picture compression standards for compressing those types images are being worked other committees named jbig and mpeg respectively jpeg lossy meaning that the image you get out decompression isn quite identical what you originally put the algorithm achieves much its compression exploiting known limitations the human eye notably the fact that small color details aren perceived well small details light and dark thus jpeg intended for compressing images that will looked humans you plan machine analyze your images the small errors introduced jpeg may problem for you even they are invisible the eye useful property jpeg that the degree lossiness can varied adjusting compression parameters this means that the image maker can trade off file size against output image quality you can make extremely small files you don mind poor quality this useful for indexing image archives making thumbnail views icons etc etc conversely you aren happy with the output quality the default compression setting you can jack the quality until you are satisfied and accept lesser compression why use jpeg there are two good reasons make your image files smaller and store bit per pixel color data instead bit per pixel data making image files smaller big win for transmitting files across networks and for archiving libraries images being able compress mbyte full color file down kbytes makes big difference disk space and transmission time you are comparing gif and jpeg the size ratio more like four one more details below your viewing software doesn support jpeg directly you have convert jpeg some other format for viewing manipulating images even with jpeg capable viewer takes longer decode and view jpeg image than view image simpler format gif for instance thus using jpeg essentially time space tradeoff you give some time order store transmit image more cheaply worth noting that when network phone transmission involved the time savings from transferring shorter file can much greater than the extra time decompress the file let you the arithmetic yourself the other reason why jpeg will gradually replace gif standard usenet posting format that jpeg can store full color information bits pixel million colors instead less fewer colors you have only bit display hardware then this may not seem like much advantage you within couple years though bit gif will look obsolete black and white macpaint format does today furthermore for reasons detailed section jpeg far more useful than gif for exchanging images among people with widely varying color display hardware hence jpeg considerably more appropriate than gif for use usenet posting standard when should use jpeg and when should stick with gif jpeg not going displace gif entirely for some types images gif superior image quality file size both one the first things learn about jpeg which kinds images apply rule thumb jpeg superior gif for storing full color gray scale images realistic scenes that means scanned photographs and similar material jpeg superior even you don have bit display hardware and lot superior you see section for details gif does significantly better images with only few distinct colors such cartoons and line drawings particular large areas pixels that are all exactly the same color are compressed very efficiently indeed gif jpeg can squeeze these files much gif does without introducing visible defects this sort image best kept gif form particular single color borders are quite cheap gif files but they should avoided jpeg files jpeg also has hard time with very sharp edges row pure black pixels adjacent row pure white pixels for example sharp edges tend come out blurred unless you use very high quality setting again this sort thing not found scanned photographs but shows fairly often gif files borders overlaid text etc the blurriness particularly objectionable with text that only few pixels high you have gif with lot small size overlaid text don jpeg computer drawn images ray traced scenes for instance usually fall between scanned images and cartoons terms complexity the more complex and subtly rendered the image the more likely that jpeg will well the same goes for semi realistic artwork fantasy drawings and such plain black and white two level images should never converted jpeg you need least about gray levels before jpeg useful for gray scale images should also noted that gif lossless for gray scale images levels while jpeg not you have existing library gif images you may wonder whether you should convert them jpeg you will lose little image quality you section which argues that jpeg image quality superior gif only applies both formats start from full color original you start from gif you already irretrievably lost great deal information jpeg can only make things worse however the disk space savings may justify converting anyway this decision you have make for yourself you convert gif library jpeg see section for hints prepared leave some images gif format since some gifs will not convert well how well does jpeg compress images pretty darn well here are some sample file sizes for image have handy full color image ship harbor the first three files are for comparison purposes the rest were created with the free jpeg software described section file size bytes comments ship ppm original file ppm format compression bits bytes per pixel plus few bytes overhead ship ppm ppm file passed through unix compress compress doesn accomplish lot you note other text oriented compressors give similar results ship gif converted gif with ppmquant ppmtogif most the savings the result losing color info gif saves bits pixel not see sec ship jpg cjpeg highest useful quality setting this indistinguishable from the bit original least nonprofessional eyeballs ship jpg cjpeg default setting you have look mighty darn close distinguish this from the original even with both screen once ship jpg cjpeg this has slight defects you know what look for you could tell been jpeged without seeing the original still good image quality many recent postings usenet pictures groups ship jpg cjpeg jpeg characteristic blockiness becomes apparent this setting djpeg blocksmooth helps some still seen plenty usenet postings that were poorer image quality than this ship jpg cjpeg optimize optimize cuts table overhead blocky but perfectly satisfactory for preview indexing purposes note that this file tiny the compression ratio from the original this case jpeg can make file that factor four five smaller than gif comparable quality the file every bit good the gif better you have full color display this seems typical ratio for real world scenes what are good quality settings for jpeg most jpeg compressors let you pick file size image quality tradeoff selecting quality setting there seems widespread confusion about the meaning these settings quality does not mean keep the information some have claimed the quality scale purely arbitrary not percentage anything the name the game using jpeg pick the lowest quality setting smallest file size that decompresses into image indistinguishable from the original this setting will vary from one image another and from one observer another but here are some rules thumb the default quality setting very often the best choice this setting about the lowest you can without expecting see defects typical image try first you see defects then except for experimental purposes never above saying will produce file two three times large but hardly any better quality the image was less than perfect quality begin with you might able down without objectionable degradation the other hand you might need higher quality setting avoid further degradation the second case seems apply much the time when converting gifs jpeg the default about right for compressing bit images but usually better for converting gifs see section for more info you want very small file say for preview indexing purposes and are prepared tolerate large defects setting the range about right may amusing art note the quality settings discussed this article apply the free jpeg software described section and many programs based other jpeg implementations such image alchemy may use completely different quality scale some programs don even provide numeric scale just high medium low style choices where can get jpeg software most the programs described this section are available ftp you don know how use ftp see the faq article how find sources

stick with version also available from export note that version not good choice you have bit display you get only bit color nor for converting bit images jpeg but works fine for converting gif and other bit images jpeg caution there glitch version sure check the save normal size checkbox when saving jpeg file the file will blurry another good choice for windows john cristy free imagemagick package also available from export lcs mit edu file contrib imagemagick tar this package handles many image processing and conversion tasks the imagemagick viewer handles bit displays correctly for

bigger than your screen for larger images scales the image down fit the screen rather than using panning scrolling most viewers you may may not prefer this approach but there denying that slows down loading large images considerably note installation bit tricky read the directions carefully shareware alternative colorview for dos this easier install than either the two freeware alternatives its user interface also much spiffier looking although personally find harder use more keystrokes inconsistent behavior faster than dvpeg but little slower than hiview least hardware for images larger

independent jpeg group volunteer organization you like contribute improving our software you are welcome join what all this hoopla about color quantization most people don have full color bit per pixel display hardware typical display hardware stores fewer bits per pixel can display fewer distinct colors time display full color image the computer must map the image into appropriate set representative colors this process called color quantization this something misnomer color selection would better term stuck with the standard usage though clearly color quantization lossy process turns out that for most images the details the color quantization algorithm have much more impact the final image quality than any errors introduced jpeg except the very lowest jpeg quality settings since jpeg full color format converting color jpeg image for display bit less hardware requires color quantization this true for all color jpegs even you feed less color gif into jpeg what comes out the decompressor not colors but thousands colors this happens because jpeg lossiness affects each pixel little differently two pixels that started with identical colors will probably come out with slightly different colors each original color gets smeared into group nearby colors therefore quantization always required display color jpeg colormapped display regardless the image source the only way avoid quantization ask for gray scale output incidentally because this effect nearly meaningless talk about the number colors used jpeg image even you attempted count the number distinct pixel values different jpeg decoders would give you different results because roundoff error differences occasionally see posted images described color jpeg this tells that the poster hasn read this faq and probably converted the jpeg from gif jpegs can classified color gray scale just like photographs but number colors just isn useful concept for jpeg the other hand gif image definition has already been quantized fewer colors gif does have definite number colors its palette and the format doesn allow more than palette entries for purposes usenet picture distribution gif has the advantage that the sender precomputes the color quantization recipients don have this also the disadvantage gif you stuck with the sender quantization the sender quantized different number colors than what you can display you have quantize resulting much poorer image quality than you had quantized once from full color image furthermore the sender didn use high quality color quantization algorithm you out luck for this reason jpeg offers the promise significantly better image quality for all users whose machines don match the sender display hardware jpeg full color image can quantized precisely match the user display hardware furthermore you will able take advantage future improvements quantization algorithms there lot active research this area purchase better display hardware get better view jpeg images you already have with gif you stuck forevermore with what was sent also worth mentioning that many gif viewing programs include rather shoddy quantization routines you view color gif color ega display for example you are probably getting much worse image than you need this partly inevitable consequence doing two color quantizations one create the gif one display but often also due sloppiness jpeg conversion programs will forced use high quality quantizers order get acceptable results all and normal use they will quantize directly the number colors displayed thus jpeg likely provide better results than the average gif program for low color resolution displays well high resolution ones finally ever growing number people have better than bit display hardware already bit color displays true bit displays workstations and macintoshes etc for these people gif already obsolete cannot represent image the full capabilities their display jpeg images can drive these displays much more effectively thus jpeg all around better choice than gif for representing images machine independent fashion how does jpeg work the buzz words know are chrominance subsampling discrete cosine transforms coefficient quantization and huffman arithmetic entropy coding this article long enough already not going say more than that here for technical information see the comp compression faq this available from the news answers archive rtfm mit edu files pub usenet news answers compression faq part you need help using the news answers archive see the top this article what about lossless jpeg there great deal confusion this subject the jpeg committee did define truly lossless compression algorithm one that guarantees the final output bit for bit identical the original input however this lossless mode has almost nothing common with the regular lossy jpeg algorithm and offers much less compression present very few implementations lossless jpeg exist and all them are commercial saying the free jpeg software does not get you lossless image what does get rid deliberate information loss the coefficient quantization step there still good deal information loss the color subsampling step with the free jpeg code you can also say sample turn off subsampling keep mind that many commercial jpeg implementations cannot cope with the resulting file even with both quantization and subsampling turned off the regular jpeg algorithm not lossless because subject roundoff errors various calculations the maximum error few counts any one pixel value highly unlikely that this could perceived the human eye but might concern you are doing machine processing image this minimum loss setting regular jpeg produces files that are perhaps half the size uncompressed bit per pixel image true lossless jpeg provides roughly the same amount compression but guarantees bit for bit accuracy you have application requiring lossless storage images with less than bits per pixel per color component you may want look into the jbig bilevel image compression standard this performs better than jpeg lossless such images jpeg lossless superior jbig images with more bits per pixel furthermore jpeg public domain least with huffman back end while the jbig techniques are heavily covered patents why all the argument about file formats strictly speaking jpeg refers only family compression algorithms does not refer specific image file format the jpeg committee was prevented from defining file format turf wars within the international standards organizations since can actually exchange images with anyone else unless agree common file format this leaves with problem the absence official standards number jpeg program writers have just gone off their own thing and result their programs aren compatible with anybody else the closest thing have facto standard jpeg format some work that been coordinated people cube microsystems they have defined two jpeg based file formats jfif jpeg file interchange format low end format that transports pixels and not much else tiff jpeg aka tiff extension the aldus tiff format tiff high end format that will let you record just about everything you ever wanted know about image and lot more besides tiff lot more complex than jfif and may well prove less transportable because different vendors have historically implemented slightly different and incompatible subsets tiff not likely that adding jpeg the mix will anything improve this situation both these formats were developed with input from all the major vendors jpeg related products reasonably likely that future commercial products will adhere one both standards believe that usenet should adopt jfif the replacement for gif picture postings jfif simpler than tiff and available now the tiff spec has only recently been officially adopted and still unusably vague some crucial details even when tiff jpeg well defined the jfif format likely widely supported lowest common denominator tiff jpeg files may never transportable particular case that people may interested apple quicktime software for the macintosh quicktime uses jfif compatible format wrapped inside the mac specific pict structure conversion between jfif and quicktime jpeg pretty straightforward and several mac programs are available see mac portion section you have editor that handles binary files you can strip quicktime jpeg pict down jfif hand see section for details another particular case handmade software programs gif jpg jpg gif and image alchemy these programs are capable reading and writing jfif format default though they write proprietary format developed hsi this format not readable any non hsi programs and should not used for usenet postings use the switch get jfif output this applies old versions these programs the current releases emit jfif format default you still should careful not post hsi format files unless you want get flamed people non platforms how recognize which file format have and what about you have alleged jpeg file that your software won read likely hsi format some other proprietary jpeg based format you can tell what you have inspecting the first few bytes the file jfif standard file will start with the characters hex followed two variable bytes often hex followed jfif you see the start but not the rest you may have raw jpeg file this probably decodable jfif software worth try anyway hsi files start with hsi you out luck unless you have hsi software portions the file may look like plain jpeg data but they won decompress properly with non hsi programs macintosh pict file jpeg compressed will have couple hundred bytes header followed jfif header scan for jfif strip off everything before the and you should able read anything else proprietary format not jpeg all you are lucky the file may consist header and raw jpeg data stream you can identify the start the jpeg data stream look for try stripping off everything before that uuencoded usenet postings the characteristic jfif pattern begin line whereas uuencoded hsi files will start with begin line you learn check for the former you can save yourself the trouble downloading non jfif files what about arithmetic coding the jpeg spec defines two different back end modules for the final output compressed data either huffman coding arithmetic coding allowed the choice has impact image quality but arithmetic coding usually produces smaller compressed file typical images arithmetic coding produces file percent smaller than huffman coding all the file size numbers previously cited are for huffman coding unfortunately the particular variant arithmetic coding specified the jpeg standard subject patents owned ibm and mitsubishi thus you cannot legally use arithmetic coding unless you obtain licenses from these companies the fair use doctrine allows people implement and test the algorithm but actually storing any images with dubious best least the short run recommend that people not worry about arithmetic coding the space savings isn great enough justify the potential legal hassles particular arithmetic coding should not used for any images exchanged usenet there some small chance that the legal situation may change the future stay tuned for further details does loss accumulate with repeated compression decompression would nice having compressed image with jpeg you could decompress manipulate crop off border say and recompress without any further image degradation beyond what you lost initially unfortunately this not the case general recompressing altered image loses more information though usually not much was lost the first time around the next best thing would that you decompress image and recompress without changing then there further loss you get identical jpeg file even this not true least not with the current free jpeg software essentially problem accumulation roundoff error you repeatedly compress and decompress the image will eventually degrade where you can see visible changes from the first generation output usually takes many such cycles get visible change one the things our list see accumulation error can avoided limited but not optimistic about any case the most that could possibly guaranteed would that compressing the unmodified full color output djpeg the original quality setting would introduce further loss even such simple changes cropping off border could cause further roundoff error degradation you wondering why because the pixel block boundaries move you cropped off only multiples pixels you might safe but that mighty limited capability the bottom line that jpeg useful format for archival storage and transmission images but you don want use intermediate format for sequences image manipulation steps use lossless format ppm rle tiff etc while working the image then jpeg when you are ready file away aside from avoiding degradation you will save lot compression decompression time this way what are some rules thumb for converting gif images jpeg stated earlier you will lose some amount image information you convert existing gif image jpeg you can obtain the original full color data the gif was made from far better make jpeg from that but you need save space and have only the gif work from here are some suggestions for getting maximum space savings with minimum loss quality the first rule when converting gif library look each jpeg make sure you are happy with before throwing away the corresponding gif that will give you chance the conversion with higher quality setting necessary some gifs may better left gifs explained section particular cartoon type gifs with sixteen fewer colors don convert well you may find that jpeg file reasonable quality will larger than the gif check the sizes too experience date suggests that large high visual quality gifs are the best candidates for conversion jpeg they chew the most storage offer the most potential savings and they convert jpeg with least degradation don waste your time converting any gif much under kbytes also don expect jpeg files converted from gifs small those created directly from full color originals maintain image quality you may have let the converted files much twice big straight through jpeg files would shoot for the size the gif file not suggested earlier comparisons many people have developed odd habit putting large constant color border around gif image while useless this was nearly free terms storage cost gif files not free jpeg files and the sharp border boundary can create visible artifacts ghost edges yourself favor and crop off any border before jpeging you are windows system manual and automatic cropping functions are very painless way this cjpeg default setting appropriate for full color input but for gif inputs settings often seem necessary avoid image degradation you apply smoothing suggested below the higher setting may not necessary color gifs photographs complex artwork are usually dithered fool your eye into seeing more than the colors that gif can actually store you enlarge the image you will see that adjacent pixels are often significantly different colors normal size the eye averages these pixels together produce the illusion intermediate color value the trouble with dithering that jpeg looks like high spatial frequency color noise and jpeg can compress noise very well the resulting jpeg file both larger and lower image quality than what you would have gotten from jpeging the original full color image you had get around this you want smooth the gif image before compression smoothing averages together nearby pixels thus approximating the color that you thought you saw anyway and the process getting rid the rapid color changes that give jpeg trouble appropriate use smoothing will often let you avoid using high factor thus further reducing the size the compressed file while still obtaining better looking output image than you get without smoothing with the free jpeg software products based simple smoothing capability built try smooth when converting gifs values seem work well for high quality gifs heavy handed dithering may require larger smoothing factors you can see regular fine scale patterns the gif image even without enlargement then strong smoothing definitely called for too large smoothing factor will blur the output image which you don want you are image processing wizard you can also smoothing with separate filtering program such pnmconvol from the pbmplus package however cjpeg built smoother lot faster than pnmconvol the upshot all this that cjpeg quality smooth probably good starting point for converting gifs but you really care about the image you want check the results and maybe try few other settings for more

gap caltech edu madler cco caltech edu mark adler writes can someone who knows what they talking about add faq entry gamma correction thanks get regular questions about gamma correction since great pains deal with properly xli the image loader program maintain here explanation often use answer these questions this might suitable for inclusion the faq graeme gill note gamma correction and images author graeme gill graeme labtam date what all this gamma stuff anyway although would nice think that image image there are lot complications not only are there whole bunch different image formats gif jpeg tiff etc etc there whole lot other technical stuff that makes dealing with images bit complicated gamma one those things you ever downloaded images from bbs the net you probably noticed with most image viewing programs that some images look some look too dark and some look too light why this you may ask this gamma correction the lack why need gamma correction all gamma correction needed because the nature crts cathode ray tubes the monitors usually used for viewing images you have some sort real live scene and turn into computer image measuring the amount light coming from each point the scene then you have created linear gamma corrected image this good thing many ways because you can manipulate the image the values the image file were light adding and multiplying will work just like real light the real world now you take the image file and turn each pixel value into voltage and feed into crt you find that the crt doesn give you amount light proportional the voltage the amount light coming from the phosphor the screen depends the the voltage something like this light out voltage crt gamma you just dump your nice linear image out crt the image will look much too dark fix this you have gamma correct the image first you need the opposite what the crt will the image that things cancel out and you get what you want you have this your image gamma corrected image image crt gamma for most crts the crt gamma somewhere between and that all why does seem complicated the problem that not all display programs gamma correction also not all sources images give you linear images video cameras video signals general because this lot images already have some gamma correction done them and you are rarely sure how much you try and display one those images with program that does gamma correction for you the image gets corrected twice and looks way light you display one those images with program that doesn gamma correction then will look vaguely right but not perfect because the gamma correction not exactly right for you particular crt whose fault all this really three things one all those display programs out there that don gamma correction properly another that most image formats don specify standard gamma don have some way recording what their gamma correction the third thing that not many people understand what gamma correction all about and create lot images with varying gamma least two file formats the right thing the utah graphics toolkit rle format has semi standard way recording the gamma image the jfif file standard that uses jpeg compression specifies that the image encoded must have gamma linear image but not everyone obeys the rules some image loaders for instance xli image utility allow you specify not only the gamma the monitor you are using but the individual gamma values image you are trying view other image viewers another image program and utilities the pbm toolkit provide ways changing the gamma image but you have figure out the overall gamma correction yourself allowing for undoing any gamma correction the image has and then the gamma correction you need suite your crt monitor note that doesn provide easy way modifying the gamma image you need adjust the and curves the appropriate gamma the coledit controls altering the intensity the hsv controls doesn the right thing fails take account the effect gamma has and this tends give tint the image how can figure out what viewer does what gamma screen has the simplest way that try loading the file chkgamma jpg provided with xli distribution which jfif jpeg format file containing two grayscale ramps the ramps are chosen look linear the human eye one using continuous tones and the other using dithering your viewer does the right thing and gamma corrects images then the two ramps should look symmetrical and the point which they look equally bright should almost exactly half way from the top the bottom find this point helps you move away little from the screen and focus your eyes bit your viewer doesn gamma correction then left hand ramp will have long dark part and short white part and the point equal brightness will above the center your viewer does have way setting the right amount gamma correction for display then the equal brightness point above center increase the gamma and decrease below the center the value will usually around with xli for instance you can adjust the display gamma with the dispgamma flag and once you got right you can set the display gamma environment variable your profile how figure out what the gamma image this the most tricky bit general rule seems that lot true color bit ppm jpg images have gamma linear although there are many about that have some gamma correction seems that the majority pseudo color images bit images with color maps gif etc are gamma corrected some degree other your viewer does gamma correction then linear images will look good and gamma corrected images will look too light your viewer doesn gamma correction then linear images will look too dark and gamma corrected images will why linear images are sometimes not such good thing one the reason that many high quality formats such video use gamma correction that actually makes better use the storage medium this because the human eye has logarithmic response light and gamma correction has similar compression characteristic this means images could make better use bits per color for instance they used gamma correction the implication though that every time you want any image processing you should convert the bit image linear bits retain the same accuracy since little popular software does this and none the popular image formats can agree standard gamma correction factor difficult justify gamma corrected images the popular level some image formats can standardize particular gamma and image manipulation software takes care use extra precision when dealing with linearized internal data then gamma corrected distribution images would good thing told that the kodak photocd format for instance has standard gamma correction factor that enables get the highest quality out the bits used hold the image

jpeg pronounced jay peg standardized image compression mechanism jpeg stands for joint photographic experts group the original name the committee that wrote the standard jpeg designed for compressing either full color gray scale digital images natural real world scenes does not work well non realistic images such cartoons line drawings jpeg does not handle black and white bit per pixel images nor does handle motion picture compression standards for compressing those types images are being worked other committees named jbig and mpeg respectively jpeg lossy meaning that the image you get out decompression isn quite identical what you originally put the algorithm achieves much its compression exploiting known limitations the human eye notably the fact that small color details aren perceived well small details light and dark thus jpeg intended for compressing images that will looked humans you plan machine analyze your images the small errors introduced jpeg may problem for you even they are invisible the eye useful property jpeg that the degree lossiness can varied adjusting compression parameters this means that the image maker can trade off file size against output image quality you can make extremely small files you don mind poor quality this useful for indexing image archives making thumbnail views icons etc etc conversely you aren happy with the output quality the default compression setting you can jack the quality until you are satisfied and accept lesser compression why use jpeg there are two good reasons make your image files smaller and store bit per pixel color data instead bit per pixel data making image files smaller big win for transmitting files across networks and for archiving libraries images being able compress mbyte full color file down kbytes makes big difference disk space and transmission time you are comparing gif and jpeg the size ratio more like four one more details below your viewing software doesn support jpeg directly you have convert jpeg some other format for viewing manipulating images even with jpeg capable viewer takes longer decode and view jpeg image than view image simpler format gif for instance thus using jpeg essentially time space tradeoff you give some time order store transmit image more cheaply worth noting that when network phone transmission involved the time savings from transferring shorter file can much greater than the extra time decompress the file let you the arithmetic yourself the other reason why jpeg will gradually replace gif standard usenet posting format that jpeg can store full color information bits pixel million colors instead less fewer colors you have only bit display hardware then this may not seem like much advantage you within couple years though bit gif will look obsolete black and white macpaint format does today furthermore for reasons detailed section jpeg far more useful than gif for exchanging images among people with widely varying color display hardware hence jpeg considerably more appropriate than gif for use usenet posting standard when should use jpeg and when should stick with gif jpeg not going displace gif entirely for some types images gif superior image quality file size both one the first things learn about jpeg which kinds images apply rule thumb jpeg superior gif for storing full color gray scale images realistic scenes that means scanned photographs and similar material jpeg superior even you don have bit display hardware and lot superior you see section for details gif does significantly better images with only few distinct colors such cartoons and line drawings particular large areas pixels that are all exactly the same color are compressed very efficiently indeed gif jpeg can squeeze these files much gif does without introducing visible defects this sort image best kept gif form particular single color borders are quite cheap gif files but they should avoided jpeg files jpeg also has hard time with very sharp edges row pure black pixels adjacent row pure white pixels for example sharp edges tend come out blurred unless you use very high quality setting again this sort thing not found scanned photographs but shows fairly often gif files borders overlaid text etc the blurriness particularly objectionable with text that only few pixels high you have gif with lot small size overlaid text don jpeg computer drawn images ray traced scenes for instance usually fall between scanned images and cartoons terms complexity the more complex and subtly rendered the image the more likely that jpeg will well the same goes for semi realistic artwork fantasy drawings and such plain black and white two level images should never converted jpeg you need least about gray levels before jpeg useful for gray scale images should also noted that gif lossless for gray scale images levels while jpeg not you have existing library gif images you may wonder whether you should convert them jpeg you will lose little image quality you section which argues that jpeg image quality superior gif only applies both formats start from full color original you start from gif you already irretrievably lost great deal information jpeg can only make things worse however the disk space savings may justify converting anyway this decision you have make for yourself you convert gif library jpeg see section for hints prepared leave some images gif format since some gifs will not convert well how well does jpeg compress images pretty darn well here are some sample file sizes for image have handy full color image ship harbor the first three files are for comparison purposes the rest were created with the free jpeg software described section file size bytes comments ship ppm original file ppm format compression bits bytes per pixel plus few bytes overhead ship ppm ppm file passed through unix compress compress doesn accomplish lot you note other text oriented compressors give similar results ship gif converted gif with ppmquant ppmtogif most the savings the result losing color info gif saves bits pixel not see sec ship jpg cjpeg highest useful quality setting this indistinguishable from the bit original least nonprofessional eyeballs ship jpg cjpeg default setting you have look mighty darn close distinguish this from the original even with both screen once ship jpg cjpeg this has slight defects you know what look for you could tell been jpeged without seeing the original still good image quality many recent postings usenet pictures groups ship jpg cjpeg jpeg characteristic blockiness becomes apparent this setting djpeg blocksmooth helps some still seen plenty usenet postings that were poorer image quality than this ship jpg cjpeg optimize optimize cuts table overhead blocky but perfectly satisfactory for preview indexing purposes note that this file tiny the compression ratio from the original this case jpeg can make file that factor four five smaller than gif comparable quality the file every bit good the gif better you have full color display this seems typical ratio for real world scenes what are good quality settings for jpeg most jpeg compressors let you pick file size image quality tradeoff selecting quality setting there seems widespread confusion about the meaning these settings quality does not mean keep the information some have claimed the quality scale purely arbitrary not percentage anything the name the game using jpeg pick the lowest quality setting smallest file size that decompresses into image indistinguishable from the original this setting will vary from one image another and from one observer another but here are some rules thumb the default quality setting very often the best choice this setting about the lowest you can without expecting see defects typical image try first you see defects then except for experimental purposes never above saying will produce file two three times large but hardly any better quality the image was less than perfect quality begin with you might able down without objectionable degradation the other hand you might need higher quality setting avoid further degradation the second case seems apply much the time when converting gifs jpeg the default about right for compressing bit images but usually better for converting gifs see section for more info you want very small file say for preview indexing purposes and are prepared tolerate large defects setting the range about right may amusing art note the quality settings discussed this article apply the free jpeg software described section and many programs based other jpeg implementations such image alchemy may use completely different quality scale some programs don even provide numeric scale just high medium low style choices

contribute improving our software you are welcome join what all this hoopla about color quantization most people don have full color bit per pixel display hardware typical display hardware stores fewer bits per pixel can display fewer distinct colors time display full color image the computer must map the image into appropriate set representative colors this process called color quantization this something misnomer color selection would better term stuck with the standard usage though clearly color quantization lossy process turns out that for most images the details the color quantization algorithm have much more impact the final image quality than any errors introduced jpeg except the very lowest jpeg quality settings since jpeg full color format converting color jpeg image for display bit less hardware requires color quantization this true for all color jpegs even you feed less color gif into jpeg what comes out the decompressor not colors but thousands colors this happens because jpeg lossiness affects each pixel little differently two pixels that started with identical colors will probably come out with slightly different colors each original color gets smeared into group nearby colors therefore quantization always required display color jpeg colormapped display regardless the image source the only way avoid quantization ask for gray scale output incidentally because this effect nearly meaningless talk about the number colors used jpeg image even you attempted count the number distinct pixel values different jpeg decoders would give you different results because roundoff error differences occasionally see posted images described color jpeg this tells that the poster hasn read this faq and probably converted the jpeg from gif jpegs can classified color gray scale just like photographs but number colors just isn useful concept for jpeg the other hand gif image definition has already been quantized fewer colors gif does have definite number colors its palette and the format doesn allow more than palette entries for purposes usenet picture distribution gif has the advantage that the sender precomputes the color quantization recipients don have this also the disadvantage gif you stuck with the sender quantization the sender quantized different number colors than what you can display you have quantize resulting much poorer image quality than you had quantized once from full color image furthermore the sender didn use high quality color quantization algorithm you out luck for this reason jpeg offers the promise significantly better image quality for all users whose machines don match the sender display hardware jpeg full color image can quantized precisely match the user display hardware furthermore you will able take advantage future improvements quantization algorithms there lot active research this area purchase better display hardware get better view jpeg images you already have with gif you stuck forevermore with what was sent also worth mentioning that many gif viewing programs include rather shoddy quantization routines you view color gif color ega display for example you are probably getting much worse image than you need this partly inevitable consequence doing two color quantizations one create the gif one display but often also due sloppiness jpeg conversion programs will forced use high quality quantizers order get acceptable results all and normal use they will quantize directly the number colors displayed thus jpeg likely provide better results than the average gif program for low color resolution displays well high resolution ones finally ever growing number people have better than bit display hardware already bit color displays true bit displays workstations and macintoshes etc for these people gif already obsolete cannot represent image the full capabilities their display jpeg images can drive these displays much more effectively thus jpeg all around better choice than gif for representing images machine independent fashion how does jpeg work the buzz words know are chrominance subsampling discrete cosine transforms coefficient quantization and huffman arithmetic entropy coding this article long enough already not going say more than that here for technical information see the comp compression faq this available from the news answers archive rtfm mit edu files pub usenet news answers compression faq part you need help using the news answers archive see the top this article what about lossless jpeg there great deal confusion this subject the jpeg committee did define truly lossless compression algorithm one that guarantees the final output bit for bit identical the original input however this lossless mode has almost nothing common with the regular lossy jpeg algorithm and offers much less compression present very few implementations lossless jpeg exist and all them are commercial saying the free jpeg software does not get you lossless image what does get rid deliberate information loss the coefficient quantization step there still good deal information loss the color subsampling step with the free jpeg code you can also say sample turn off subsampling keep mind that many commercial jpeg implementations cannot cope with the resulting file even with both quantization and subsampling turned off the regular jpeg algorithm not lossless because subject roundoff errors various calculations the maximum error few counts any one pixel value highly unlikely that this could perceived the human eye but might concern you are doing machine processing image this minimum loss setting regular jpeg produces files that are perhaps half the size uncompressed bit per pixel image true lossless jpeg provides roughly the same amount compression but guarantees bit for bit accuracy you have application requiring lossless storage images with less than bits per pixel per color component you may want look into the jbig bilevel image compression standard this performs better than jpeg lossless such images jpeg lossless superior jbig images with more bits per pixel furthermore jpeg public domain least with huffman back end while the jbig techniques are heavily covered patents why all the argument about file formats strictly speaking jpeg refers only family compression algorithms does not refer specific image file format the jpeg committee was prevented from defining file format turf wars within the international standards organizations since can actually exchange images with anyone else unless agree common file format this leaves with problem the absence official standards number jpeg program writers have just gone off their own thing and result their programs aren compatible with anybody else the closest thing have facto standard jpeg format some work that been coordinated people cube microsystems they have defined two jpeg based file formats jfif jpeg file interchange format low end format that transports pixels and not much else tiff jpeg aka tiff extension the aldus tiff format tiff high end format that will let you record just about everything you ever wanted know about image and lot more besides tiff lot more complex than jfif and may well prove less transportable because different vendors have historically implemented slightly different and incompatible subsets tiff not likely that adding jpeg the mix will anything improve this situation both these formats were developed with input from all the major vendors jpeg related products reasonably likely that future commercial products will adhere one both standards believe that usenet should adopt jfif the replacement for gif picture postings jfif simpler than tiff and available now the tiff spec has only recently been officially adopted and still unusably vague some crucial details even when tiff jpeg well defined the jfif format likely widely supported lowest common denominator tiff jpeg files may never transportable particular case that people may interested apple quicktime software for the macintosh quicktime uses jfif compatible format wrapped inside the mac specific pict structure conversion between jfif and quicktime jpeg pretty straightforward and several mac programs are available see mac portion section you have editor that handles binary files you can strip quicktime jpeg pict down jfif hand see section for details another particular case handmade software programs gif jpg jpg gif and image alchemy these programs are capable reading and writing jfif format default though they write proprietary format developed hsi this format not readable any non hsi programs and should not used for usenet postings use the switch get jfif output this applies old versions these programs the current releases emit jfif format default you still should careful not post hsi format files unless you want get flamed people non platforms how recognize which file format have and what about you have alleged jpeg file that your software won read likely hsi format some other proprietary jpeg based format you can tell what you have inspecting the first few bytes the file jfif standard file will start with the characters hex followed two variable bytes often hex followed jfif you see the start but not the rest you may have raw jpeg file this probably decodable jfif software worth try anyway hsi files start with hsi you out luck unless you have hsi software portions the file may look like plain jpeg data but they won decompress properly with non hsi programs macintosh pict file jpeg compressed will have couple hundred bytes header followed jfif header scan for jfif strip off everything before the and you should able read anything else proprietary format not jpeg all you are lucky the file may consist header and raw jpeg data stream you can identify the start the jpeg data stream look for try stripping off everything before that uuencoded usenet postings the characteristic jfif pattern begin line whereas uuencoded hsi files will start with begin line you learn check for the former you can save yourself the trouble downloading non jfif files what about arithmetic coding the jpeg spec defines two different back end modules for the final output compressed data either huffman coding arithmetic coding allowed the choice has impact image quality but arithmetic coding usually produces smaller compressed file typical images arithmetic coding produces file percent smaller than huffman coding all the file size numbers previously cited are for huffman coding unfortunately the particular variant arithmetic coding specified the jpeg standard subject patents owned ibm and mitsubishi thus you cannot legally use arithmetic coding unless you obtain licenses from these companies the fair use doctrine allows people implement and test the algorithm but actually storing any images with dubious best least the short run recommend that people not worry about arithmetic coding the space savings isn great enough justify the potential legal hassles particular arithmetic coding should not used for any images exchanged usenet there some small chance that the legal situation may change the future stay tuned for further details does loss accumulate with repeated compression decompression would nice having compressed image with jpeg you could decompress manipulate crop off border say and recompress without any further image degradation beyond what you lost initially unfortunately this not the case general recompressing altered image loses more information though usually not much was lost the first time around the next best thing would that you decompress image and recompress without changing then there further loss you get identical jpeg file even this not true least not with the current free jpeg software essentially problem accumulation roundoff error you repeatedly compress and decompress the image will eventually degrade where you can see visible changes from the first generation output usually takes many such cycles get visible change one the things our list see accumulation error can avoided limited but not optimistic about any case the most that could possibly guaranteed would that compressing the unmodified full color output djpeg the original quality setting would introduce further loss even such simple changes cropping off border could cause further roundoff error degradation you wondering why because the pixel block boundaries move you cropped off only multiples pixels you might safe but that mighty limited capability the bottom line that jpeg useful format for archival storage and transmission images but you don want use intermediate format for sequences image manipulation steps use lossless format ppm rle tiff etc while working the image then jpeg when you are ready file away aside from avoiding degradation you will save lot compression decompression time this way what are some rules thumb for converting gif images jpeg stated earlier you will lose some amount image information you convert existing gif image jpeg you can obtain the original full color data the gif was made from far better make jpeg from that but you need save space and have only the gif work from here are some suggestions for getting maximum space savings with minimum loss quality the first rule when converting gif library look each jpeg make sure you are happy with before throwing away the corresponding gif that will give you chance the conversion with higher quality setting necessary some gifs may better left gifs explained section particular cartoon type gifs with sixteen fewer colors don convert well you may find that jpeg file reasonable quality will larger than the gif check the sizes too experience date suggests that large high visual quality gifs are the best candidates for conversion jpeg they chew the most storage offer the most potential savings and they convert jpeg with least degradation don waste your time converting any gif much under kbytes also don expect jpeg files converted from gifs small those created directly from full color originals maintain image quality you may have let the converted files much twice big straight through jpeg files would shoot for the size the gif file not suggested earlier comparisons many people have developed odd habit putting large constant color border around gif image while useless this was nearly free terms storage cost gif files not free jpeg files and the sharp border boundary can create visible artifacts ghost edges yourself favor and crop off any border before jpeging you are windows system manual and automatic cropping functions are very painless way this cjpeg default setting appropriate for full color input but for gif inputs settings often seem necessary avoid image degradation you apply smoothing suggested below the higher setting may not necessary color gifs photographs complex artwork are usually dithered fool your eye into seeing more than the colors that gif can actually store you enlarge the image you will see that adjacent pixels are often significantly different colors normal size the eye averages these pixels together produce the illusion intermediate color value the trouble with dithering that jpeg looks like high spatial frequency color noise and jpeg can compress noise very well the resulting jpeg file both larger and lower image quality than what you would have gotten from jpeging the original full color image you had get around this you want smooth the gif image before compression smoothing averages together nearby pixels thus approximating the color that you thought you saw anyway and the process getting rid the rapid color changes that give jpeg trouble appropriate use smoothing will often let you avoid using high factor thus further reducing the size the compressed file while still obtaining better looking output image than you get without smoothing with the free jpeg software products based simple smoothing capability built try smooth when converting gifs values seem work well for high quality gifs heavy handed dithering may require larger smoothing factors you can see regular fine scale patterns the gif image even without enlargement then strong smoothing definitely called for too large smoothing factor will blur the output image which you don want you are image processing wizard you can also smoothing with separate filtering program such pnmconvol from the pbmplus package however cjpeg built smoother lot faster than pnmconvol the upshot all this that cjpeg quality smooth probably good starting point for converting gifs but you really care about the image you want check the results and maybe try few other settings for more

triangle basis this grossly inefficient for the objects displayed which can optimized doing projections one time once for each vertex but objects whose extents intersect the hither plane can benefit from this because new vertices must created during clipping anyone have any better ideas yes here what you should keep the vertices array and have the polygons triangles are okay but sided polygons are slightly more efficient store the indices into the array the vertices that comprise them you set flag for each vertex when you transform you don have transform any vertex more than once you also backface elimination before processing the polygon that vertices that belong only bacfacing polys don have transformed all whenever you transform vertex check the far side the hither plane you can project right away and store the result then your clip any vertices that get produced will have have their projection done that stage bernie roehl university waterloo dept electrical and computer

there are very very few people who will think good and clever programmer you chose call yourself term that means thief don surprised when people think you are thief even you don agree with that definition the word the narrower view that hacker when associated with the computing environment dishonest expert not widespread opinion least with the people involved with the field imho the wider meaning not obsolete all matter how much the lay press would like therefore conclude that you call yourself hacker and somebody perceives you thief then this person belongs very very small group that has some computer knowledge but not enough know the wider and original meaning the word unfortunately the general public has very narrow view the deep dark recesses the art computing what little they see from the view given them the media from what have seen from the media hacker not proper way which refer respected person the other hand know what hacker means from those who consider themselves such following the definition from jargon file this also known the hackers dictionary the definitions are arranged order decreasing frequency usage hacker originally someone who makes furniture with axe person who enjoys exploring the details programmable systems and how stretch their capabilities opposed most users who prefer learn only the minimum necessary one who programs enthusiastically even obsessively who enjoys programming rather than just theorizing about programming person capable appreciating hack value person who good programming quickly expert particular program one who frequently does work using unix hacker definitions through are correlated and people who fit them congregate expert enthusiast any kind one might astronomy hacker for example one who enjoys the intellectual challenge creatively overcoming circumventing limitations deprecated malicious meddler who tries discover sensitive information poking around hence password hacker network hacker see cracker the term hacker also tends connote membership the global community defined the net see network the and internet address also implies that the person described seen subscribe some version the hacker ehic see hacker ethic the better described hacker others than describe oneself that way hackers consider themselves something elite meritocracy based ability though one which new members are gladly welcome there thus certain ego satisfaction had identifying yourself hacker but you claim one and are not you quickly labeled bogus see also wannabee hacker ethic the the belief that information sharing powerful positive good and that ethical duty hackers share their expertise writing free software and facilitating access information and computing resources wherever possible the belief that system cracking for fun and exploration ethically long the cracker commits theft vandalism breach confidentiality both these normative ethical principles are widely but means universally accepted among hackers most hackers subscribe the hacker ethic sense and many act writing and giving away free software few further and assert that all information should free and any proprietary control bad this the philosophy behind the gnu project sense more controversial some people consider the act cracking itself unethical like breaking and entering but this principle least moderates the behavior people who see themselves benign crackers see also samurai this view one the highest forms hackerly courtesy break into system and then explain the sysop preferably email from superuser

that bestowed the befuddled sysadmins and users large sign truly great hacker introduced someone who says nahh just know thing two people always exagerate note that the above definition does not preclude hacker from describing limself meaning himself herself one but simply says that better not there are many who not know the meaning hacker order defend the true meaning the word sometimes

dtr because the communication program that use dial slip server qmodem drops dtr when exit the program and therefore hangs the line you use program like kermit conex establish the slip connection then this need not done these programs not necessarily hangup the line when you exit note you use univ minn phone dial and establish slip connection you not need turn off dtr dial and establish the slip connection first this can done automatically you use program like phone from the university minnesota which will dial and establish slip connection then load the slip packet driver the phone scripting language simple and phone scripts can easily written configure phone work with other slip server addition while the only packet driver that phone works with umslip currently easy write batch file hack

slip umslip com univ minnesota driver based slip these four vastly prefer slipper exe over slip com ethersl com for the following reasons much faster even though modem has just uart while using etherslip slip umslip myself and several others have noticed that the clock gets messed after performing long ftp transfer supports pktmux when used ethernet simulation mode when used ethernet simulation mode slipper seem work with every tcp application that have tested with instructions for slipper exe and you not use phone load slipper your autoexec bat file according instructions for instance you have bis modem com slipper com vec baud you use dos tcp applications win dos boxes then use the double ended packet driver shim winpkt com this creates virtual packet driver dos applications native mode dos applications windows dos boxes and windows applications can all use this virtual driver winpkt com you use qvt net load pktint com next qvt net configured qvtnet ini use the interrupt pktint com instructions for slip com try getting version slip driver philip burns northwestern university has modified slip com driver that better hardware handshaking this driver distributed along with nupop load the driver after establishing the slip connection modem bis modem com here how would load the driver slip slip discussed above you use dos tcp applications windows dos boxes you probably want use winpkt com winpkt com you use winqvt net load pktint com pktint com instructions for ethersl com you choose use ethersl com instead slip com the instructions are exactly the same with one crucial difference you will have delete the line device vcd from the enh section system ini this will interfere with running regular windows comm applications such crosstalk and you will get lots dropped characters etc these applications this therefore not recommended etherslip would loaded ethersl configuring windows make the following modifications the system ini file enh section list all your com ports with their addresses and interrupts com base com irq com base com irq com base com irq this can also done from within windows control panel but double clicking the ports icon give the port which your modem attached generous com buffer com buffer iii change the com port autoassign value for the com port that you wish use for your modem zero this the amount time that windows waits seconds before handing control that com port another application you use winqvt net and then want switch from one session another and this value the default value seconds you are will get gpf and windows will crash com autoassign this can also done from within windows control panel double click enhanced and under device contention set the device contention for the com port your modem never warn additional notes what you are assigned different address for each slip session fortunate that our campus slip server assigns each user permanent address not have worry about editing qvtnet ini each time that establish slip connection you are assigned new address every occasion that you dial please try use bootp aware software and let bootp the configuration for you however qvtnet not bootp aware and rarp will not work over slip connection get qvtnet working situation such this you must the following edit the qvtnet ini file let the net section look like this net name netmask whatever appropriate for you arptime packet vector whatever appropriate save the changes and then write protect this file attrib qvtnet ini start your slip connection and remember the name and address that you are assigned each time you start qvt net the general configuration dialog box will open enter the name and address and you were assigned for that session click and you should

use pktmux over slip pktmux will not work over the slip com packet driver and crashes immediately used with ethersl com pktmux will work with slipper exe when slipper used ethernet simulation mode example this configuration shown below the latest release pktmux and important that you use this version you want use virtual packet drivers with applications like trumpet for windows released very shortly from autoexec bat slipper com vec baud ether packet driver pktmux pktmux loaded for virtual packet drivers pktdrv first virtual packet driver used for qvt net pktint com qvt net pktint com pktdrv pktdrv for use native dos wintrumpet additional virtual packet drivers can loaded directly from within windows dos boxes for example pif file load popmail directed the file popmail bat this what popmail bat reads like pktdrv loads virtual packet driver popmail popmail pktdrv unloads the packet driver exit causes the dos window close have similar batch files that load other dos tcp applications like gopher experience that pktmux works fine even the virtual packet drivers two independent virtual dos sessions are loaded the same software interrupt for example within two different dos boxes one for popmail and the other for gopher the virtual packet driver pktdrv loaded each instance how much does pktmux degrade the performance slipper have bis bis modem running windows with reasonably fast video card ati graphics ultra under these conditions when have three virtual packet drivers loaded and being used follows driver qvtnet ftp client session driver one dos window cutcp session driver another dos window trumpet for dos get ftp transfer rates sec while transferring compressed files this rate comparable that which get with slip loaded packet driver and where single tcp session active cslipper used packet driver and single session active get transfer rates sec the same files while there about degradation the performance slipper for the benefits being able use pktmux outweigh the performance hit slipper and ethernet simulation mode ethernet simulation mode slipper ver works with all the applications that have tested with one two applications that required ethernet simulation balked slipper but even these rare problems have been resolved with ver when slipper used ethernet simulation mode and used with pktmux get some error message the qvtnet console window that reads incorrect packet type bad version number this does not seem prevent qvtnet from functioning although cannot comment loss performance what can you your dos tcp application does not work with slipper ethernet simulation mode the rare event that you find package that does not work with slipper ethernet simulation mode first contact the author peter tattam peter psychnet psychol utas edu and let him know chances are that can fix the meanwhile you can try the following not know kosher but worked when had problems with slipper ver slipper loaded described above under the pktmux section load ethersl com run the application and then terminate ethersl com this also works within windows virtual dos boxes however packet driver like ethersl can used only one virtual dos box time for example here batch file run grateful med medical reference retrieval program developed the national library medicine ethersl loads etherslip search termin terminates etherslip exit closes the dos box and returns windows you use this method cautious about one thing don have any active pktmux dos sessions open the same time after closing the ethersl window you can run your pktmux dos sessions with problem btw the example above grateful med works with problems with slipper ver phone script files the documentation that accompany phone provide good instructions writing script files get phone dial

deskjet hello again about week and one half ago posted query looking for people feelings the inkjet family printers specifically comparison between the canon bubblejet and the hewlett packard deskjet many people asked post the summary account all the postings and mail received below original query and the responses received have not deleted any part the responses only the headers and signatures you can extract what you find necessary some people asked for unbiased account however the very nature the question suggests favoritism and biased comments you must extract the information you believe unbiased and fair representation each printer there are wide range comments each has its own value there was clear winner some like the especially its price performance ratio others preferred the durability and reliability the deskjet the original inkjet with proven drivers and solid background two new inkjet printers have drawn some attention new printer introduced hewlett packard later this year around summertime and addition the epson product line their first inkjet you will find that after the initial purchase the costs filling replacing the ink cartridges are about the same this largely depends where you purchase the fills replacements shop around first since this aspect will most likely dominate the cost your printer one mentioned approx how many sheets each ink cartridge will print but suspect they are roughly equal about sheets laser printers will sheets per toner cartridge well that brief research summary personal research enjoy hello fellow netters asking for your collected wisdom help decide which printer should purchase the canon bubblejet the deskjet thought rather than trust the salesperson would benefit more from relying those who use these printers daily and use them their fullest potential and figure all you will know their benefits and pitfalls better than any salesperson now would greatly appreciate any information you could render the dpi the canon bubblejet the hewlett packard deskjet dpi which faster there noticeable print quality difference particularly graphics which will handle large documents better pages more any personal experience either will appreciated here which works better under windows any driver problems etc cost memory font packages toner cartridges etc basically your personal experiences with either these machines highly desirable both good and bad well bought the about month ago the start their rebate program that printer ends and bought from computer discount warehouse because their price couldn beat anywhere looked and think hot printer just using regular copier paper produced fantastic results just high quality mode compared the output micrografx designer legal size drawing with type done with the same drawing printed laserjet iid and was amazed how well could read the small print the printing speed was several seconds faster the which amazing considering that the has ram installed measured the time from when the printer first indicated was receiving data used print manager windows showed the output several people work and one manager bought one immediately for his office and two other engineers placed their orders too you need cdw phone number delivery was two days good luck craig witkowski ceng maccvm corp mot com motorola communications electronics inc glen rock own deskjet performance isn spectacular under windows using truetype fonts but neither the canon from what have seen quality for the very much dependent paper quality standard photo copy paper the characters have slightly frayed edges but better quality distinction type paper things look better for most applications find copy paper fine still better than dot matrix comes with windows driver which seems pass print manager has few intelli fonts which are scaleable fonts probably faster than truetype but haven really tried them out can get ram font cartridges but unless the speed truetype problem wouldn bother the ram cartridges can used buffer soft fonts only for graphics bmp images etc the can put into dither mode via the supplied win driver there number dither options such scatter pattern etc the manual gives recommendations depending the type image being printed text not good this mode problem arises when you have document which contains both graphic and text the range tones for graphic images isn brilliant but think that more limitation with inkjet printers general from what have seen the canon similar most respects however printer definitely worth looking the new inkjet from epson this printer faster cheaper and capable producing laser like quality normal copier paper can remember the model something think purchased days before the epson was released here the introductory price the epson was the same the here new zealand about month ago got canon absolutely love incredibly fast except for printing from pspice don know you ever stuff with that not most the stuff print either from microsoft word for windows just plain text the only problems had are printing headers footers the printer freaked out and printing cheap paper lots streaks normal copy paper works great with you can only tell not laser printed holding less than twelve inches from your face that you nearsighted like the printer comes with its own driver for windows have other complaints the printer also can act just like some epson another for those archaic software packages that haven written driver for yet the teeny weeny footprint real plus too and you purchase between now and may you get rebate from canon bought mine from store called compusa and the price now have friend who has the you are looking also prints very well and everyone has drivers for but very slow hope helped dpi sure looks great

small print the printing speed was several seconds faster the which amazing considering that the has ram installed measured the time from when the printer first indicated was receiving data used print manager windows guess have some experience with both have work and deskjet home prefer the deskjet the printing speed and quality are similar tested both with text and graphics before buying the deskjet for home the feature that sets the deskjet apart the driver support many applications the ends emulating the epson ibm proprinter get work with many non windows apps and this will the case for long time the design superior you just want use cut paper the deskjet quieter and the ink cartridges are quite bit cheaper due the number deskjets out there comparision the bjs just worth mike mattix agricultural group monsanto box luling internet address dmmatt bigez monsanto com yes there the landscape mode printing problem but does not present problem windows the windows printer driver handles the translation actually thought some other points after posted the note the deskjet has unprintable area approximately inch around the paper the bubblejet does not you are right about the graphics resolutions tested the printers with the applications had access wordperfect harvard graphics wingif paintshop pro and paintbrush and could not tell difference fact one the deskjet windows drivers gives you significant control over the contrast and density the printer hence controlling the amount ink you put down the bubblejet did not had imaging software test the printers with and had comparision there finally wanted sheet feeding that configuration the bubblejet cost approximately more than the deskjet went through pretty thorough evaluation and chose the deskjet when spent own money btw replacing the with deskjet work this month anyway regards mike mattix group monsanto luling spent some time comparing the two ended getting the bubblejet versus the our reasons were the seemed have worse banding than the canon dpi versus felt could see the difference price canon has rebate program going the moment the was our choice over the could have pages the feeder the holds only pages think you can see pages the haven done anything big with the but its performance seems reasonable under windows know that the microsoft bbs has newer windows driver than comes with the printer but don know how compares also the driver included with the printer canon whereas don know where the microsoft bbs one comes from microsoft hope this helps thomas frauenhofer yyw tvf cci com uunet uupsi cci tvf tvf rit edu mandlebratwurst the meal that eats itself altough sometimes also salesperson not suppost study would recommend buy the the printing quality bit better but you you got much more possiblities don forget the engine least years the marked the canon engine witch also used other new bubblejet printers like the epson ones quite recently available now would greatly appreciate any information you could render the dpi the canon bubblejet the hewlett packard deskjet dpi which faster there noticeable print quality difference particularly graphics which will handle large documents better seen during short demonstration from someone who tryed sell canon printers times the same picture one printed with the one with the canon the other with the and there was difference printing quality the canon was bit better greetz kris when decided needed quiet printers our hospital looked inkjet printers they have near laser quality speed and they are quiet use both deskjets and the canon prefer the paper handling qualities the deskjets but feel the canons have superior print quality the ideal would canon with sheet feeder however did end buying deskjet for home use got too good deal anyway are using canons high volume areas and they are holding very well out deskjets and have only had one problem with deskjet and that was taken care very quickly nate whenever buy anything look what the experts say pick out the top few and then buy whatever criteria are the most apt been unusually flush lately begging letter please and done this few times including about four months ago with inkjet printers can remember much about the process except that read about three reviews inkjets and that the was always near the top bought the because the added dimension colour intend build multi media machine some stage and have just bought colour scanner towards that although haven used the colour thing earnest yet tried out couple windows bitmaps and was pleased with the result note that even though you can now get the the one with both colour and mono with need change the cartridge the and are still readily available least the the following are views experience don know anything about the canon except that came away from reviews and replies posting similar yours with the idea that the offered the best performance price ratio believe are the originals the field not always the ideal place but the market still young one assumes they have the expertise the worth the extra operation mono perfectly acceptable and get good crisp reproduction fonts from windows used work for monotype when they still manufactured typesetters before their american owners closed them down and can tell you that terms definition dpi pretty poor anyway dpi just bit less poor the comes with reasonable set drivers you buy invest the additional ram pack pretty slow with god knows what like without actually work germany and home the not daily use would say that apart from not reading the manual properly and having really dumb problem the start easy peasy operate hope this use regards david just bought the thought the price couldn beat with rebate thru and far comparable even superior the deskjet print quality speed per page rate seems faster don have figures don print long docs though quality think the graphics quality excellent print quality excellent well unless you use small fonts and hold close you can see lot more jaggies than laserjet the dpi offset little less accuracy holding the page print head place would imagine large docs not room the standard model for whole lotta pages manual says though haven tried drivers problems under win yet winword doesn want print the envelopes the same way the canon does though know nothing add costs daniel hartung dhartung chinet chinet com ask about rotaract the deskjet slow this comparison the other printers mentioned have idea how the bubblejet compares the interface between win and the printer just dandy not had any problems with just bought printer couple days ago compared the sample print deskjet and knew that the wasn for the pretty fast and really prints with good quality can compare with the laserjet iiid postscript and they look almost identical depending the kind paper don have problems with the ink not being dry seems dry very fast probably within second since canon giving rebate until the end may really good buy sean eckton computer support representative college fine arts and communications wow funny you should ask this little behind news reading know this may late just purchased the canon bubblejet last night was really worried that wouldn like but the print quality and noise level fantastic printed quite few documents with lots graphics and printed damn near laser quality you can tell not laser unless you get inches from the page problems with drivers the printer came with the driver diskette which good because was beginning panic when couldn findi under windows wordperfect works well under both have yet install word for windows don know how works with them had deskjet work last year was good printer well felt was awfully slow and much noisier than the bubblejet won say the bubblejet much better but really like more just worth brett sincerely robert kayman kayman stanford edu cpa stanford edu theory theory and practice are the same practice they are

way install windows from novell administrator point view just got off the phone with access support and was told that they microsoft has decided implement standard for software support the local setup described below the most advantageous installation this true and microsoft deems this the most prudent installation then will comply but like hear from administrators first the local windows installation windows fully installed each workstation hard drive assuming the resources are available from network administrator implementation she would install all windows disks network drive using setup then install windows per machine bases running setup off the network install the complete system the local drives this way all drivers are available the setup procedure the need change disks advantages reduce traffic running windows locally reduces network traffic due the local access main windows files network independence the network fails and they all one point another the local installation would allow users keep producing and reduce the cost down time faster windows theoretically windows will run faster from local hard drive than over network this may hard point prove the network has optical backbone and the network drives are significantly faster access than local ones user traveling from machine machine does not need worry about varying setups monochrome color types mouse etc since the windows installation assigned the workstation disadvantages cost installing windows locally requires significant amount disk space workstations now must purchased with hard disk that can increase the cost the workstation from percent administration local windows installations are very difficult administer new drivers for peripherals are constantly being made available each which would have individually installed each workstation security users now have access erase corrupt their own system files from simple ignorance this could result quite headache for administrators who may have constantly repair damaged installations backup all know the problems backing local hard disks the backup sets done via centralized tape system get very large very quickly backup individually floppy may not happen all this may eliminated assumed that local hard disks only contain replaceable applications and not user data the shared windows installation windows fully installed network disk via the setup procedure described above users administrators then install minimal set files individual user directories these directories may local hard disk perhaps network home directory the bulk the windows system files are maintained the network single directory some files and are accessed shared needed users throughout their windows session the user files consist small set files that the user has updated during his her windows session these include group files ini files and other regularly updated files advantages single location for all files makes updates drives easy updated driver becomes available only needs installed this single directory for all users able take advantage assuming that the users files are maintained network home directories the administrator can easily edit any ini file needed correct problems that may arise this includes win ini and system ini backup all pertinent files done easily even the users files are local hard disk the bulk the windows system backed with all driver updates disadvantages network traffic since all windows files are being shared network directory traffic the network can become problem effect the speed windows the network crashes all production comes stop since window reliant upon the network for its files loss data usually occurs well since users working windows the time the crash will usually not able save their work although minimal disk space still consideration the users files are maintained the network large number users can cause significant utilization disk space due their personal windows files alone users cannot easily move from machine machine unless the workstation hardware are similar this due the windows installation being tied particular username the case network user files the discussion would like know from other administrators with large windows userbase how they prefer setting windows personally have setup numerous installations using the shared setup all windows and application files are the network with little utilization local hard disks fact sold network the fact that the company would longer need purchase hard disks for their workstations and thus save that much more money would also like see recommendations for applications should apps such word and excel installed locally regardless how windows installed again keep all files the network for easy backup and administration but this putting all eggs one basket the network crashes work comes halt now sure microsoft and know your out there has their own ideas about this and their insights would great value but hope hear from people with actual working experience with users and network administration comp.os.ms-windows.misc help with changing startup logo article apr seas gwu edu louray

works now that type telnet uicvm uicvm either will work the dos prompt uicvm the node name the mainframe the program then dials the mainframe establishes protocol and gives the logon screen telnet and are the names batch files slip directory have been told that kermit protocol used for the session problem would like able all this under windows because hardly ever use dos directly slip will not run under windows talked the people our computer center and they suggested that use packet driver called winpkt com with slip they gave instructions how load before start windows and how modify the tcpstart and tcpstop batch files the slip directory ensure that would work did all that and could run slip from windows but there were other problems for one thing slip would not hang the phone when exited had run communi cations program hang the phone reboot the computer when that didn work for another there were too many errors often took tries connect the mainframe our computer center does not support slip under windows can keep going back them with more questions question there some other shareware package that will run under windows and what slip supposed need package that not too expensive which why looking for shareware have heard that there are regular commercial packages that all this but they cost hundreds dollars these are the main requirements must able run under windows must allow and ibm terminal emulation must allow ftp file transfers since that the only kind the mainframe allows modem modem etc believe the ftp transfers are made through kermit protocol but hazy

local bus cards given that eisa video cards have bit bus move data around instead isa bits good question answer the eisa bus does move bits rather than isa but still moves about the speed the isa bus think that either mhz the local bus designs also move bits like the eisa but they move the data the cpu speed mhz mhz cpu the local bus moving bit data mhz and the eisa moving bit data mhz the local bus should times faster than eisa mhz cpu eisa should about two maybe times fast isa since they are not why would anyone included pay higher cost for eisa video card when its performance better than and often worse that much cheaper isa video board such diamond speedstar from magazine think recent report know that ati makes pretty fast eisa video card but around which just about double what wallet will allow spend and for could get diamond viper and still have left over course have get local bus mother board too that very good question the eisa bus does have more advantages over the isa

intended device independent bitmap file format what microsoft means device independent unclear four pixel resolutions are supported bit bit bit and bit pixels these images were intended for use dos ibm little endian systems you are creating them another architecture you will have byte swap all short and long integer values convention dib images end the extension bmp this because march they are super set earlier bitmap image files consequently you will sometimes hear dib files referred bmp files since dib images files are super set there are three flavors dib images dos dib images these are the recommended convention and the form which will describe how create they are intended for applications running under windows dos environment dib images understanding that these are the flavor dib images that were used the presentation manager old style bitmap images march differences between flavors the dos dib images consist bitmapfileheader file header which identifies the file dib file this header also gives the total size the image file and the offset the image data bitmapinfoheader image header which specifies the image attributes optional palette colors used the image exists this may contain entries each entry windows rgbquad structure the image data itself the dib images consist the same bitmapfileheader file header which identifies the file dib file this header also gives the total size the image file and the offset the image data bitmapcoreheader image header which specifies the image attributes optional palette colors used the image again this exists may contain entries each entry windows rgbtriple structure the image data itself the old style image bitmap consists either bitmapinfoheader bitmapcoreheader which header type determined the first long integer dword value optional color palette this palette may composed either windows rgbquad structures the header was bitmapinfoheader windows rgbtriple structures the header was bitmapcoreheader the image data itself creating dib image files creating dos dib image file consists several straight forward steps the headers need created and then written the file these header structures are defined the windows windows include file palette information needs stored for images that are not bit images the five general steps are filling the bitmapfileheader and the bitmapinfoheader structures the basic image information the image bit bit bit image creating the color palette rgbquads calculating the total file size and putting this information march the bfsize field the bitmapfileheader calculating the offset the image data from the start the file and putting this the bfoffbits field the bitmapfileheader writing the file the bitmapfileheader the bitmapinfoheader the color palette and the image data that order the following sections describe structures terms microsoft type defined keywords the following table describes these keywords for those not familiar with microsoft type defined keywords microsoft typedef meaning byte unsigned character word two byte unsigned integer dword four byte unsigned integer march the bitmapfileheader this structure defined windows typedef struct tagbitmapfileheader word bftype dword bfsize word bfreserved word bfreserved dword bfoffbits bitmapfileheader the bftype field the two ascii characters and this serves identify the file dib image file intel byte ordered machine ibm compatible this constant can formed the quantity intel system the bfsize field the total size the file for our purposes this field equal the size the bitmapfileheader plus the size the bitmapinfoheader plus the number entries the color palette times the size rgbquad plus the number bytes image data the image data being written out uncompressed form this value can calculated ahead time otherwise this field needs filled later both the bfreserved and the bfreserved fields are always set zero the bfoffbits field set the offset the start the image data from the start the file for our purposes this field should set the size the bitmapfileheader plus the size the bitmapinfoheader plus the number entries the color palette times the size rgbquad this works out because the image data written write after the color palette one exists march the bitmapinfoheader this structure defined windows typedef struct tagbitmapinfoheader dword bisize dword biwidth dword biheight word biplanes word bibitcount dword bicompression dword bisizeimage dword bixpelspermeter dword biypelspermeter dword biclrused dword biclrimportant bitmapinfoheader the bisize field set the size the bitmapinfoheader structure itself when reading the image file this value what used determine that the image contains bitmapinfoheader and not bitmapcoreheader the biwidth field the width the image image pixels the biheight field the height the image image lines the biplanes field should always set this data written out there was one color plane the bibitcount field the bit depth the image this must either depending the bit depth the image data the bicompression field tells how the image data compressed compressed dib images support two forms run length encoding however have never seen any images which use and don know yet how works set this field zero long zero indicate that the data not compressed all subsequent fields the bitmapinfoheader structure may set zero requirement the interpretting software that able compute these fields necessary from the previous information the field which you might want explicitly specify might biclrused for bit and bit images this field indicates that not all the possible color entries are used and that the image contains biclrused colors you are using only colors with bit image then you may only want save the possible palette entries generally set this field zero march color palettes each entry color palette rgbquad structure the rgbquad structure defined the windows include file typedef struct tagrgbquad byte rgbblue byte rgbgreen byte rgbred byte rgbreserved rgbquad the rgbreserved field always zero for each color used the amount blue green and red are filled into the structure and the structure written the file value zero the rgbblue rgbgreen rgbred fields indicates that that particular component does not contribute the color composition value any these fields indicates that the component contributes fully the color composition image data there are three surprises about the ordering image data dib image file the creator this format was determined creative and certainly was within the image data each line written out padded the next four byte quantity you had bit image which was only one pixel wide you still have write out four bytes for every image line the number bytes per line can calculated bytes per line width pix bit depth terms the fields the bitmapinfoheader structure bytes per line biwidth bibitcount when writing out your image data you must write out bottom line first the bottom line the image you would look the screen the first line image data the file for bit bit and bit images information written you would expect one bit images are padded eight pixels byte four bit images are padded two pixels byte eight bit images are written one pixel per byte twenty four bit images are written three bytes per pixel however for bit images the information must written out the order blue green red while most image file formats write data out march rgb ordering dib image file writes the data out bgr ordering summary this should provide enough information create dib images from applications such scanners for image exporting routines you find out any more about dib images please pass the information that can modify this document accordingly march thomas kinsman rochester

every job control shell language til mvs cms vms unix had way escape the and enter single command across multiple lines via their rexx language which standard with the gist all this since this

article srg spud hyperion com the author writes setting dos unix box ide and scsi drive and was wondering about the use the dos join command like the way sets things since won have stick with the crap that dos enforces like how would mimic mount points unix filesystems have heard that there were problems with using least under older versions dos please tell have been using the join command for many years now mostly with good success duplicating unix style file mounts you will hear lots people cursing join because they confuse with the dos append command truely gnarly hack but don believe them you also will hear people saying that microsoft recommends that you not use join but microsoft windows workgroups resource toolkit the following appears join dos utility works fine with windows for workgroups you not change the state the joined drives during windows for workgroups session this includes adding removing joined drives from within windows for workgroups recommend that you not use join when running windows setup windows for workgroups within this caveat join appears valid under windows however have found couple applications that don deal well with filesystems that have been mounted using join particular the worst offender word for windows gets very confused when you edit and then try save file joined drive wants create the saved file nnnnn tmp the current dir then delete the old file and rename the nnnnn tmp file the doc file unfortunately wfw usually writes the nnnnn tmp file some idiotic place other than the current directory often the root dir the joined filesystem but not always then after deleting the original doc file can find the nnnnn tmp file rename unless you search your disk systems the document gone have also found subtle problems using the mks toolkit from dos box when joined filesystems are present used join temp with meg ramdisk but mks sometimes gets confused when doing the temp dir and misses some files the temp dir this difficult reproduce but goes away totally when join not used think this windows problem rather than mks since works under raw dos would suggest that you can use join but aware that may not robust you would like wouldn real great mount network drives under the main file tree rather than having all those darned drive letters unfortunately join won let you there was talk the net about simple patch let join work network drives but don remember the source too bad the join command not better implemented since would avoid using all those stupid drive letters realize that messdos was meant for casual even ignorant users mounting all the drives one file tree might confusing but looks like going carry this over into windows another meant for casual even igorant users not with all old family system baggage maybe needs

then windows hit the market flopped least seems doing little better but its future still cloudy and people either stayed with their dos and apps moved windows about that point time made its decision drop for dos windows the short term and windows the long term dos much improved over dos and was the first result refocussing dos and windows version takes things somewhat further and suspect future

defend the pathetic state dos upgrade distribution long story but would make good reading for those who are interested knowing the potential pitfalls upgrading dos that have been able notice after only about week playing around with envorinment travelmate winsx ram disk system bios version texas instruments vga bios cirrus logic quadtel advance power manager battery pro texas instruments smart drive cache win dos parameters windows benchmark winbench labs after updgrading dos could not understand why certain things became slow especially after decided try dblspace the process finding out why discovered some interesting things disk performance with double space and smart drive while most things did not appear slow down most the time certain applications appeared run very much slower what was interesting that commands like chkdsk and defrag were running far too slowly consider them useful any standards suspected double space and decided measure its impact system using winbench the real disk winmark for the original system shipped from factory with dos and windowws became when upgraded dos with thus there effective performance degradation more than percent which did not really surprise because knew that compression must cost something specifically for short sequential reads bytes actually improves transfer rates about because cpu being faster than more cpu cycles needed for more than compensated savings cycles however for all other cases particularly large random writes the transfers take three times long while the performance depends the type access random sequential small large transfer units the average based winbench assumptions the disk slows down half its speed the tests alone done real mode see winbench and with smartdrv not say much except that helps put into those subjective statements like there noticable difference performance even that will speed disk access when you have fast cpu and slow disk this explained why some applications ran markedly slower but not why chkdsk and defrag the latter especially too long double space and windows dblspace will not run all from within windows not even you wanted only get information not modify anything for that matter even check its usage try fasthelp dblspace dos box within windows and you will see what mean from the error message you get how narrow minded can programer get wonder yes this information can obtained through the mstools add file manager but this mstools dll does not understand compressed floppy use the dos supplement utility create compressed floppy you dont know how dos defragmenter incompatible with apm defragmentation seemed take too much time even waited patiently till finished and then ran again just confirm this confirmation dblspace def command for the drive should take more than seconds much faster other defragmenters have used but took minutes discovered that moved the mouse defragmentation checking ran faster the figure ticked more rapidly dawned that this had with battery saver advanced power management apm module which slows the clock down when thinks that the cpu idle and obviously thought defragmentation was idle process after disabling the power saver this operation took only seconds microsft programmers think and gateway nomad users are idiots the readme txt file you can find the the following running microsoft backup with and gateway nomad computers avoid conflict between the turbo feature and microsoft backup for windows dos add switch the device command your config sys that loads the battery pro file before you run microsoft backup type setpower the command prompt you checked manual the option you will realise that means disable all power saving features your notebook why would anyone want run driver disabled have found out not only does power management interfere with microsoft backup the readme txt claims but chkdsk and dblspace and who knows what else are crippled the power saver obvious that there not such thing apm specifications there indeed such thing then either microsoft programmers programmers dont know how read these specifications you dont have guess who are the idiots the way you run the advance power management utility power exe dos when you check the status says power management status setting adv max cpu idle time this figure seems the steady state value notebook when running nothing windows with only program manager iconised form does that mean that windows takes cpu all for itself and that have best only left for useful work such overhead justified whether not windows operating system just another user interface dos alone reports idle time looks like windows good example busy waiting type package that like students study the classical negative example our times microsoft programmers not know batch programming like structure startup script and thus have the equivalent addpath statements like this set path dos set path etc bin path bin set path etc windows path windows set path path bcc bin set path path mouse even though the new dos was installed the same directory the old one dos dos installation program modifes each and every path statement and prepends dos its value result resultant path has many dos the installation program wanted remove the old dos path and add the new dos path clearly has only scan for the path statement containg the old dos directory and replace the new dos path even this should only done the new dos installed directory different from the old one being upgraded instead the microsoft programmer you can call this person one decided meddle every path statement had the autoexec and prepend dos the value wonder microsoft desparate that would not fire programmers who are incapable the thought process started thread this when dos came and the microsoft representative singapore called about this poster fact specifically said his counterparts saw the poster and relayed the information him did not have access internet now that has not changed one bit fact you have path statement with path already not obvious that the this statement should not touched for any reason another example the inability microsoft programmers understand batch programming had the mouse driver invoked set mouse etc mouse set path path mouse loadhigh mouse mouse com guess what memmaker did replaced the last statement with etc mouse mouse com why difficult just replace loadhigh with and its parameters without touching the rest the line not understand dos software quality dos the only operating system know which under normal usage you end creating file that you cannot get rid using the commands that come with deliberately being cryptic about this challenge microsoft use all its programmers catch this bug and publish they dont within week will post how you can create this ghost file surely can pick this bug without even looking for after using particular command only twice sure two dozen microsoft idiot programmers randomly banging their keyboards over week could find that what was told how microsoft tests the quality their products think funny that microsoft has found ways test quality when accepted the industry that quality cannot tested but can only built into the product wonder they cannot provide any form guarantees their products not even decent list bugs that will prevent scores user from destroying their disks beyond repair also you run dblspace def often enough repeatedly when the disk fully defragmented you may get errors that was created the defragmenters got sys file size error and got truncated when did the chkdsk this happend only after five successive defragmentation efforst after the first one supposedly did its job and with new file creation since microsft dont you dare reply this poster

cables the problem the new hard drive manual refers matching pin the cable with both pin the drive itself and pin the ide card but for the life cannot figure out how tell which way plug the cable align these most ide drives that have dealt with have had pin labeled the printed circuit board this sufficient determine which side which your ide drive does not have label then you can look for polarization notch the receptacle the connector the drive with the pins the receptacle center polarized that has one rectangular notch about wide positioned the center one side then you can identify pin follows look into the pins with the notch the top pin the top right all drives have seen this toward the power connector for which pin pin the controller well you can use the same criteria but look hard for the labelling any pin once you know which end pin are pins the oposite end then you are all set all you need keep the pin end connected the pin end you don even have look the cable itself just trace the pin side the cable through usually the pin the cable identified different color red usually but beware many cable makers are not very careful about this have seen cables with pin being the one marked red course with non polarized connectors this doesn matter you can plug the cable either way and you decide which side pin secondly the cable has like connector two ends and one between them figure one end goes the controler and then the other two into the drives does matter which plug into the master drive and which into the slave any help appreciated thanks doesn matter what gets plugged where but does matter how the drives are jumpered there will amongst other options two jumpers that you should concerned with both drives one jumper will select whether the drive the

appreciated when you got multi tasking you want increase performance increasing the amount overlapping you one way with dma bus mastering either these make possible for devices move their data into

however defined the standard interface created for the ibm which requires the cpu move all the data bytes with dma talking isa bus here then you can only have dma channel active any one time presumably transferring data from single device even though you can have least devices scsi bus explain how all those devices can dma transfers through single scsi card the isa bus the same time think the scsi card doing the dma transfers not the disks the scsi card can dma transfers containing data from any the scsi devices attached when wants important feature scsi the ability detach device this frees the scsi bus for other devices this typically used multi tasking start transfers several devices while each device seeking the data the bus free for other commands and data transfers when the devices are ready transfer the data they can aquire the bus and send the data ide bus when you start transfer the bus busy until the disk has seeked the data and transfered this typically second lock out for other processes wanting the bus irrespective transfer time also still trying track down copy ibm reference book but from their technical manual page the fdd adapter buffered the bus and uses the system board direct memory access dma for record data transfers expect see something similar for the hdd adapter the lowly low density original fdd card used dma and the hdd controller doesn that

interrested the extrodinarily simple concept the null modem cable actually have idea don count that last statement what asking what pins does use what are specifications just want solder one myself instead buying one don even know what port used help please kimmell vax cns muskingum edu kevin intending use the cable for transfers via lap link telix ideas and info gladly accepted not have specific knowledge lap link telix but recommendation for any package follow each one instructions for making the null modem cable the reason that each one may different since there isn really standard for communications the following tutorial wrote that will give you understanding about and null modems but you should still check your software will eplain couple details commumications specification for communicating between computer and modem actually can between any end system and any communications hardware the terminology used data terminal equipment dte and data communications equipment dce spells out the voltage levels the connector type the pinouts and the signal protocols the connector but ibm has set alternative standard the primary signals are transmit data recieve data and signal ground there are other signals that provide control between the dte and the dce for example the dte announces that powered and ready participate communications via the data terminal ready dtr signal dtr output the dte and input the dce similarly the dce announces that ready participate communications via the data set ready dsr signal dsr input the dte and output the dce that five signals there are only four more interest the request send rts signal output from the dte and input the dce that used ask the dce permission send data the dce agrees sends via the clear send cts signal for completeness the cts input the dte and output from the dce the other two signals interest are ring indicator and data carrier detect dcd these are both inputs the dte and outputs from the dce just what you would expect signal the dte saying that someone attempting establish connection the dce this rather specific the modem telephone line setup dcd way for the dce announce that the connection has been established the local dce talking some remote dce there that there are many other signals defined but they are obsolete have explained the nine signals that are the pinouts are follows name dtr dsr dcd rts cts now address your problem hand when you connect dte dte there dce pair the middle and therefore the signal definitions don work out quite right there dce assert the cts dsr dcd the common thing not use these signals all and also forget about the dtr and rts outputs well this done you simply make null modem cable that passes through and crosses and pin one end connects pin the other end etc the problem with this solution that that wants send data has way knowing the other ready would have just send the data and hope got through therefore better null modem would include the dtr dsr pair crossed particular point confusion the software area just because you run the wires does not mean that the soft ware will use them you are using the built bios control the serial port then the bios dictates what wires you need and how they are used but you have comm package such brooklyn bridge lap link telix then those packages dictate the cabling requirements the only thing you can guess reliably the and the dtr dsr also fairly common there one more issue that needs addressed here and that flow control the scenerio the dce are responsible for flow control and assumed that the dce couldn possible over run the dte this mean that long the dte has its dtr line asserted the dce will send data without requesting permission first note the contrast the other direction data flow the dte must request permission asserting the rts line and must wait for the cts signal before can send and now the dte dte scenerio the question you need flow control the answser usually but how for non binary communications one common technique xon xoff which implemented software wires are dedicated flow control the and carry the xon and xoff commands this type flow control can used addition hardware flow control but the problem that you can send binary data because your data might include the xon xoff codes and cause erroneous conrol signals work around have the software insert and extract escape codes but the hardware flow control prefered the problem with hard ware flow control that there standard there are lots ways and bet they have all been tried one cornerstone all the methods use the rts cts for one direction but beyond that anything fair game again you must look you comm package for cabling requirements but bet you find that one cable wired properly could work with all the packages long they are the same vintage the way familiar with one package that uses rts cts and dtr dsr for flow control the rts request send and the dtr ready recieve the cts the clear send and the dsr the request recieve this does not mean differnt cable just software the clincher all this cabling stuff that common have the uart directly controlled the cts signal which means that the cts must present even you are not support ing software for these cases you will find cables that short the rts the cts the same end perhaps the dtr the cts other possible shorting might done just because the software expects certain signals that you don have don feel like providing because would mean additional wires specifically talking about the dsr shorting the dtr the dsr not good idea general but you may find cables like this bad idea because defeats the whole purpose one more gotcha signal the dcd some software including the bios expects see the dcd before will work this signal sometimes gets shorted with the dtr but favorite null modem has the rts and cts shorted each end but the rts also connected through the other end and connected dcd and course the dtr dsr are crossed are the and course the must pass through this null modem works with most software the flow control any can use the rts dcd with the dtr dsr your comm package does not specify the cable required for connection then suggest you use this one dtr dsr dsr dtr dcd rts rts dcd cts cts gordon lang comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware netware server and wayne mcdougall had the unmitigated gall say this the software

sometimes pulled off with slightly different drives controllers long the sizes are the same how the novell server normally configured the configuration completely the user can install sft netware

techniques believe floppy controller also uses dma and most boards also use dma dma big deal and has nothing directly with scsi the simple style ide controller does not use dma the cpu performs the data transfer with string move instruction this requires that the cpu stop what had been doing and transfer the data only the smart drive controllers they ide scsi can transfer via dma these controllers tend cost the same wether they are ide scsi get the dma benefits ide must sacrifice price advantage the controller for example when rewinding formatting tape the command issued the controller and the bus released allow access other devices the bus this greatly increases productivity least something else while backing your hard drive which happens what doing while reading this group you can thank your software for that dos had few more brains could format floppies etc while you were doing something else the hardware will support but dos least won again this has nothing with scsi floppies aren the ide bus your arguement makes sense this isn ide issue the floppys have their own processor their controller board which handles all these commands the difference between ide and scsi that all scsi peripherials are intelligent they each have their own controller they depend the cpu fewer things for them ide drives needing processor transfer their data its long story but still use ide except for the cdrom which thanks scsi can move between both machines and when scsi better standardized and supported the ibm clone machines plan completely get rid ide and you stick with dos you wonder why you can multitask again ask why can unix type all the miraculous things with ide harddrive that can with single scsi hard drive the dettach callback mechanism alows the cpu make

processor those machines and here are the facts understand them you have model model you can replace the chip with either cyrix dlc chip for which will increase your processing power about for normal fuctions and not all for math functions this chip will only run your original clock speed you have mhz machine the cyrix dlc will run mhz note windows does not use the math functions good upgrade you are running windows you can get kingston now platform for with mhz which will increase your normal processing power about you were running mhz originally but again will not increase the speed your math fuctions think that will continue run mhz even your original processor runs slower speed there also the kingston now platform for with mhz this might speed your math functions well but not sure you have model other machine with either non clock doubling runs either mhz then you can get intel overdrive chip which really chip and replace your chip with you should get about better preformance for both normal and math functions the mhz version the overdrive chip costs and the mhz version costs the replacement for the mhz chip espeacially good deal provides the math coprocessor which the does not have note that the speed ratings the overdrive chips are the maximum speed which they can run you have mhz then the overdrive chip will run mhz mhz externally and mhz internally there reason buy overdrive chip which rated faster then your machine you will not get faster performance you should able buy these chips from any the microchip merchants that advertise the back magazine week you

damn sig comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware courier sportster note followups comp dcom modems for obvious reasons article usenet ins cwru edu cleveland freenet edu andy nicola writes previous article maccs mcmaster holly says what the difference between the robotics courier bis external and the sportster external see that the price sportster has dramatically dropped below but the price the courier remains above anyone with knowledge both these modems anyone that owns courier the courier their top the line product thus the higher price never taken real look the sportster line only couriers but from what gathered basically more entry level modem probably doesn meet the same specifications that the courier does not sure the sportster line fully dsp driven like the more recent courier modems are upgrades the future may issue again take all the above with grain salt never evaluated the sportster going bits and pieces that heard you want real answer post the question comp dcom modems and you find people who have worked with the sportster personally though were going look the courier modems buy the dual standard then get both hst and bis fact this exactly what did sitting here looking usr right now and now correct few very incorrect statements folks you want get reliable answers modem and uart questions post them comp dcom modems you post other groups you never know what you get the way answer you may very well get good answer you may get something like the one below least cdm someone posts complete and utter you see flurry folks correcting them avoid spreading faulty info the sportster has error control and bis data compression just does lower speeds too there absolutely nothing either ccitt recommendation bis that says that they can only operate modems that are running bis bis course currently only standardized for operation top its primary mode operation lapm but that about far that goes and just case there some confusion this bis are also supported the courier line unless you have really ancient one the difference with the courier that can run and only the hst mode take second look the original question previous article maccs mcmaster holly says what the difference between the robotics courier bis external see the bis there the question was not about the courier hst modem about the courier dual standard was about the courier bis modem the modem question does not support hst period therefore does not support the hst also not all courier hst courier dual standard modems support the version hst dual standard only supports hst there are even older models that only run hst this proprietary mode usr and will only connect another the same type unit achieve this speed hst usr proprietary modulation scheme but not talking about hst talking about bis bis most definitely not proprietary modulation scheme the sportster will asynchronous transmissions well synchronous the hst one way only hope you didn mean for these two sentences related some way first off and bis are both synchronous and asynchronous this part the ccitt recommendation part the standard isn feature unique the sportster just looked the appropriate chapter the courier manual second hst not one way only more correctly put asymmetrical modulation scheme meaning doesn work the same speed both directions hst operates one direction and has low speed back channel the other direction the high speed channel goes the direction the higher data flow this fine you logged say bbs and type one letter and get screens info back transfer files not using bimodem etc there course penalty for turnaround time when the high speed channel needs reverse directions and bis are both symmetrical meaning they transfer the full data rate both directions the same time third synchronous asynchronous has absolutely nothing with symmetrical asymmetrical they are two completely different topics the hst will upgradeable the fast spec when available again more correctly put some the courier line will upgradeable whatever fast called when complete you have the large footprint courier modems like you there was upgrade plan while back upgrade small footprint variety which could eventually upgraded support fast but the cost the two upgrades together pretty much put higher than just buying new modem later jim include std disclaimer ial internet jim ial mythical com

one these chips ibm model the dlc instruction set compatible cpu which fits into socket pin grid array pga the dlc currently available speeds the the and the they not have coprocessor board but any software query will return coproc present guess they emulate the coproc instructions math functions are the level without the actual coprocessor the internal cache the dlc cyrix literature claims hit rate informal tests show that the cache accounts for performance boost when enabled software overall performance boost from dlc about the benchmarks used were and qaplus dhrystones and whetstones the performance with the cache enabled about par with with external cpu cache which around the performance for the computer runs noticebly faster and dos with dblspace not complaining the company claims compatibility but didn test the dru not chip commonly thought the dru actually small daughterboard slightly larger than the which contains the logic manage the clock doubler this board plugs into the pga and the dlc plugs into this board guess the board doubles the frequency apparent the cpu and insert wait states when access the rest the system required there are info available from cyrix there anyway the dru available for and only double these clock rates and you get the mhz and the mhz dlcs cyrix planning the same thing for the dru then they need put out the mhz dlc first also tested dlc motherboard along with cyrix coprocessor with external cache performance were about faster than the but still significantly slower than actual intel imho the dlc great low price upgrade for people who can afford can install new motherboard definitely worth what paid for but you need performance the dlc won cut not sure about the dlc but think even matches the performance won beat any significant

him all day worth get scsi over ide will there noticable decrease access time increase xfer rate for msdos applications isa based scsi and ide controllers generally have comparable throughput you might get slightly higher throughput with scsi disk but you also pay more for the disk and some cases you also pay much much more for good scsi controller note that good scsi controllers really show their power they used with good multitasking operating system like unix unfortunately neither msdos nor windows good multitasking operating system the performance advantage scsi controllers mostly wasted with these which leaves the advantage being able connect multiple devices the scsi bus the only advantage however note that you can expect pay premium for scsi devices you only going using msdos stick with ide cheaper and you have less headaches will virtually any scsi device chain into the controller for hard drive bernoulli box rom tape drive etc note the following true for msdos windows only who knows what the future holds for windows and unix generally you have find drivers for each scsi device which probably don exist unless you using one the better high performance scsi controllers these are typically bus mastering scsi controllers that cost around street prices and and drivers that allow you connect these controllers popular name brand scsi devices either come with the card can purchased for under list price examples such driver kits are adaptec scsi kit list this works only with adaptec scsi controllers corelscsi from the same people who make coreldraw list this driver kit will supposedly work with any scsi controller card that has aspi driver like the adaptec central point tools for dos supports number scsi tape drives the documentation lists tape drives unfortunately works only with adaptec controllers are there likely other problems incompatibilities with scsi controller and sound cards video accelerators and similar equipment yes you will run into problems you using high performance bus mastering scsi controller this doesn sound right doesn true though with one these controllers you probably have tweak your system get work with sound cards floppy controller based tape drives like the cms jumbo and windows know been and back getting scsi controller work with various hardware software thank god for tape backups you want copy adaptec hints and tips file send email these problems aren really the fault the scsi controller card the problems are really with the general hardware and software design the standards however adding bus mastering scsi card what brings these problems the surface and makes them visible scsi holds lot promise but you can run into lot compatibility problems you planning using only msdos windows stick with ide you want use windows unix you have make some hard decisions good scsi controller and more than one scsi hard disk will probably give you excellent performance the possible cost msdos compatibility say probably because while know this true with unix don know this really will true windows suspect that will but don know for sure comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware any comments gateway nomad

have problem computer dtk ibm clone running dos derivative obviously please take note that the following not what exactly happens but slightly simplified explanation technically the irq line only means for the device printer adapter soundblaster modem hard disk signal the cpu that something happening here please take note how the cpu programmed handle this signal usually the operating system dos the interrupt vector used store the address the function that handles each interrupt now basic dos doesn care whether the printer reports that ready print some more stuff not simply ignores the interrupt when dos prints looks the lpt buffer there character there wait while and check again there not copy new character the lpt port since the irq ignored printer interrupt free for use for any other adapters this case the with any multitasking otherwise advanced this kind printing approach just doesn work more precisely wastes lot cpu cycles hence you can share the irq with lpt and you running unix whatnot another issue with the that only the digitized sound uses interrupts when the plays plain music the cpu simply tells what play until told otherwise with digitized sound the interrupt required notify the cpu when the output ends and new data needed you can however hook two more com ports one interrupt but use them only one time this because the interrupt handling routine same for both ports and can see from which port the data came from this course applies for some other devices like lpt well remember this was greatly simplified parts but think gives the general

very sophisticated auto configuring setup installation program that will think for you and what you never wanted but couldn stop from doing well ran the normal setup thing and worked fine for whatever that worth also dblspace crap writes about slower than stacker reads about slower and compresses about less all tests were made the same computer with the same disk cache and the same big files were used couldn agree more don miss the speed still faster than normal disk read would for the less compression sacrificed that favor the convenience having the dblspace bin load before anything else with stacker any changes your config sys autoexec bat meant rebooting twice could update those personally waiting for stacker come out and implement those hooks and stuff plus the defrag that comes with

question why isn there any substantial interest developing the flopticals certainly the the flopticals are about the same price cheap rom now you seem able get them for around gbp however the bigger optical drives are much more expensive around the gbp mark couple questions that someone may able answer the flopticals are they direct drop replacements for floppy they need driver software etc you just rip out the floppy drive plug the same cables into the floptical stick flopti disk and hey presto you have floppy this sounds far too easy the subject sony developing mds for computers have reread pcw article this subject and there says that sony have been doing optical drives for other people for some time and may about product themselves from the article seems that the audio format byproduct their computer storage work the mechanism identical their computer optical drives sony spokesman was quoted saying that disk would hold about data though refused comment any possibility this being productized the article said that one the problems holding back development this area was lack sensible standards plus there are least distinct optical storage mechanisms around present given

soundblaster pro card and printer card are sharing irq successfully assure you that they are both set irq and that have problem computer dtk ibm clone simple first andrew correct although can see where there might some confusion indeed possible have two cards configured use the same interrupt they can not share the interrupt the sense that not possible have both cards active the same time here example for some time was short free interrupts had tape controller not floppy tape that needed one irq irq old tape drive solution was use irq also used for com where modem did this because reasoned would never using the modem and the tape simultaneously when kermit runs installs its own interrupt handler for irq and uses the serial port the tape drive were generate interrupt kermit would not have clue what with for the tape controller and since the tape controller would not serviced would most likely hang likewise when the tape backup software runs installs interrupt handler for irq that handler won anything for the serial port under dos printing not interrupt driven instead the bios polls the status the parallel port determine when another byte may sent that why you can have your

kantrowitz writes when the computer set for colors and certain operations are done particularly vertical scrolling through window horizontal white lines appear the monitor which generally but not always spare open windows these lines accummulate the operation continued window moved over the involved area the screen and then moved away the line disappear from that area the screen this problem not observed the monitor configured for colors inch apple monitor with colors used has anyone not had these problems the given configurations that would help eliminate design flaw the explanation data point using centris with the apple monitor and not have these problems can produce similar artifacts using centris with apple monitor got the configuration there board ethernet and megabyte video ram the effect only occurs color and grey modes any vertical scrolling operation whether with scrollbar say using and inserting lines will produce scattering horizontal flickering lines the screen they not persist each visible for perhaps one refresh and then that part the screen back usual they seem always start about the pixel from the left and are maybe pixels wide this certainly not preventing

read the friendly manual before posting your question realize that you are personally incensed that the system taking fourteen your newly installed twenty megs ram but this question has already made its way around the world three hundred times before and developing tired feet finally before posting any newsgroup macintosh otherwise please familiarize yourself with the basic etiquette usenet described the newsgroup news announce newusers how use this document where can get comp sys mac faq currently divided into multiple pieces general introduction which you reading now and specific lists for the newsgroups comp sys mac system and comp sys mac misc faq lists for comp sys mac wanted comp sys mac apps and comp sys mac hardware are development when ready each part will available its

uncompress command decompress however you leave off the extension when you get the file rtfm will automatically decompress the file before sending you this introductory document posted all the concerned newsgroups the tables contents for each the specific faq lists are the beginning this file you should able get least some idea whether your question answered anywhere else the faq even you don have the other parts hand not always obvious especially newcomers where particular question comment should posted please familiarize yourself with the faq lists all the major macintosh newsgroups before posting any them which questions appear which faqs can serve basic guide what posts belong where jump particular question search for section number question number enclosed parentheses for example find where can ftp macintosh software search for the string jump section instead question use zero for the question number what other information available comp sys mac faq provides short answers number frequently asked questions appropriate for the usenet newsgroup comp sys mac misc and comp sys mac system four other files are worthy particular note daryl spitzer maintains faq list covering macintosh programming for the newsgroup comp sys mac programmer posted that group weekly and available for anonymous ftp from ftp uoregon pub mac eric rosen maintains frequently asked questions list for comp sys mac comm available that newsgroup and from rascal ics utexas edu mac faq where the file you reading now also irregularly archived this list answers many frequently asked questions about networking unix and the mac telecommunications and foreign file formats norm walsh has compiled excellent faq for comp fonts that answers lot questions about the various kinds fonts and cross platform conversion and printing available comp fonts ftp from ibis umass edu pub norm comp fonts faq finally jim jagielski maintains faq for comp unix aux covering apple unix environment posted every weeks comp unix aux and news answers available for anonymous ftp jagubox gsfc nasa gov which newsgroup should post there are stupid questions but there are misplaced ones you wouldn ask your english teacher how the definite integral between zero and one would you don ask the programmer newsgroup why your system slow when microsoft word the background ignorance basic netiquette not excuse you want people help you you need learn their ways communicating posting questions the proper newsgroup will fill your mailbox with pearls wisdom and maybe few rotten oysters too posting the wrong newsgroup often engenders thundering silence for instance the most common and glaring mispost one that seems incongruous dwellers the macintosh regions usenet would purple elephant aleuts the arctic asking question about networking anywhere except comp sys mac comm normally produces useful responses posting the same question comp sys mac comm ensures that your post read and considered dozens experienced network administrators and not few network software designers please post exactly one newsgroup not cross post question isn important enough for you take the extra minute figure out where properly belongs not important enough for several thousand people spend their time reading for the same reason comp sys mac misc should not used catch all newsgroup the breakdown questions between different newsgroups this document can also serve reasonable guide what belongs where specifically questions about productivity applications software you bought your macintosh run not software you bought make your macintosh run better should comp sys mac apps unless the application covered more specific newsgroup communications programs games hypercard compilers and databases all have more topical comp sys mac newsgroups post questions about non communications hardware including questions about what software necessary make particular hardware work comp sys mac hardware questions about macos system software belong comp sys mac system questions about utilities and extensions normally belong comp sys mac misc questions about comp unix aux detailed questions about appletalk belong comp protocols appletalk direct questions about hypercard comp sys mac hypercard non hypercard programming questions and questions about development environments should comp sys mac programmer resedit questions may posted either comp sys mac misc comp sys mac system comp sys mac programmer but generally the netters who inhabit the darker recesses comp sys mac programmer are considerably more practiced the art resource hacking general exception the above rules that any very technical question about application that actually begins delve into the how program well the what recent example how does writenow which written entirely assembly compare other word processors written high level languages might better addressed the programmer newsgroup for sale and want buy posts should comp sys mac wanted and misc forsale computers mac only understand that you desperate sell your upgraded mac get the for powerbook but trust anyone who wants buy will reading comp sys mac wanted political and religious questions the mac better than windows not too not too hey how bout the amiga what about not too belong comp sys mac advocacy anything not specifically mentioned above probably belongs comp sys mac misc finally don provincial consider only the comp sys mac newsgroups the appropriate forums for your questions many questions about modems comp sys mac comm are much more thoroughly discussed comp dcom modems questions about mac midi are often better handled comp music even though not macintosh specific newsgroup shop around usenet big place and not everything relevant the macintosh happens comp sys mac someone just asked why the system was taking sixteen their twenty megabytes ram shouldn put brilliance and wit display for the world posting the seventeenth response frequent answers are just boring and uninteresting frequent questions unless you really have something new add the traditional answers such the recent discovery that fonts system could eat memory private mail much better medium for answering common questions like this one you might want add mention this faq your mail response and polite suggestion that your correspondent read before posting future questions read all the newsgroups covered here and have written small script microphone that lets send pwfaq people with frequently asked questions the section this document that answers their question with just the click button please don feel obligated respond someone who cares little about the answer their question they can troubled read the faq list get ftp where can ftp mac software the three major north american internet archives shareware freeware and demo software are sumex aim stanford edu mac archive umich edu and wuarchive wustl edu which mirrors the other two sites and several others wuarchive often holds files after other sites remove them for space concerns and still has files that were deleted from the formerly important site rascal ics utexas edu rascal was notable for storing its files macbinary format rather than the less efficient binhex format common the other archives unless otherwise noted shareware and freeware mentioned this document should available the above sites keep traffic the internet manageable scandinavians should try connecting ftp funet ftp lth sics instead those the should look first src doc continental europeans can try nic switch ezinfo ethz and anl anl australian users should try find what they want archie which mirrors info mac and mac archive japanese users will find sumex mirrored ftp tokyo fourth very important site ftp apple com this apple semi official repository for system software developer tools source code technical notes and other things that come more less straight from apple mouth some material this site may not distributed outside the other sites that don have official license distribute apple system software please read the various readme documents available ftp apple com for the detailed info you connecting from outside the you wish redistribute material you find here can get shareware mail the info mac archives sumex aim are available mail from listserv ricevm bitnet alternately listserv ricevm rice edu the listserver responds the commands macarch help macarch index and macarch get filename mac archive files are available from mac mac archive umich edu send message containing the

dec com for details send message with just the text help quotes where can find application you can find what you looking for one the above sites try telnetting your nearest archie server sending mail message addressed archie with the subject help archie servers are located archie rutgers edu america archie mcgill the original archie server canada archie australia archie funet scandinavia and archie doc the and the continent these sites index the tens thousands files available for anonymous ftp login archie password needed and type prog filename find what you looking for type help for more detailed instructions for instance you would type prog disinfectant search for convenient ftp site for disinfectant the initial search fails turn the file you want try variations and substrings the name for instance you didn find disinfectant with prog disinfectant you might try prog disi instead substring searches often hide the gold pile dross avoid many erroneous matches add hqx the end the substring prog disi hqx most mac software available the net ends hqx but almost unix software does please check the above archives and archie personally before asking where you can find particular piece shareware you follow the above advice you should almost never have ask the net where find particular piece software can someone mail application nor will anyone mail you part file from comp binaries mac that was corrupt missed your site please refer the first questions this section find out about anonymous ftp archie and automatic mail servers what bin hqx cpt etc most files available ftp are modified twice allow them more easily pass through foreign computer systems first they compressed make them faster download and then they translated either binhex hqx macbinary bin format that other computers can digest the macintosh uses special two fork filing system that chokes most other computers binhex files are bit ascii text files while macbinary files are pure bit binary data that must always transferred using binary protocol how file has been translated and compressed for transmission indicated its suffix normally file will have name something like filename xxx yyy xxx indicates how was compressed and yyy indicates how was translated use file you ftp and downloaded your mac you need reverse the process most files you get from the net require two step decoding process first change the binhex hqx macbinary bin file double clickable macintosh file then decompress which programs decode which file types covered the table below also note that most macintosh telecommunications programs will automatically convert macbinary files regular macintosh files they are downloaded suffix sit cpt hqx bin pit image zip tar extractors stuffit compact pro packit uutool maccompress suntar binhex binhex diskdoubler unzip diskcopy macutil few notes the decompressors stuffit family products that use several different compression schemes the freeware stuffit expander will unstuff all them versions stuffit earlier than stuffit stuffit classic unstuffit and stuffit deluxe and will not unstuff the increasing number files stuffed stuffit you need get more recent version stuffit stuffit expander stuffit lite and deluxe consistently makes smaller archives than any other macintosh compression utility allow maximum space for files the various ftp sites and keep net bandwidth down please compress all files you send anonymous ftp sites with stuffit uutool maccompress and suntar handle the popular unix formats uuencode compress and tar tar respectively the unix versions are often more robust than the mac products use them instead when that option translators that allow stuffit lite expand uuencoded and tar files are also available anonymous ftp macutil dik winter package unix utilities decompress and debinhex files workstation before downloading them mac since unix stores files differently than does the mac macutil creates macbinary bin files which should automatically converted download can decompress everything particular can decompress the new stuffit archives however you need only one two files out archive for instance you want read the readme find out program does what you need before you download all macutil indispensable can found sumex aim the info mac unix directory few notes the compression formats bin these are macbinary files always use binary file transfer protocol when transferring them never ascii text most files the net are stored hqx instead only rascal stores most its files bin format most communications programs such zterm and mackermit are capable translating macbinary files the fly they download they know advance they downloading macbinary files image this format normally used only for system software that line users can download files that can easily converted into exact copies the installer floppies instead using diskcopy restore the images floppies you can use steve christensen freeware utility mountimage treat the images your hard disk actual floppies inserted floppy drive mountimage has reputation for being buggy you should have some blank floppies and copy diskcopy handy just case sea sea files don merit position the above table because they self extracting they may have been created with compact pro stuffit even diskdoubler but all should capable decompressing themselves when double clicked for some unknown reason alysis has chosen not use this industry standard designation for self extracting archives created with their payware products superdisk and more disk space instead they append either self extracting archives how can get binhex stuffit etc far the easiest way get these programs ask human being copy them onto floppy for you you university there absolutely excuse for not finding someone give you copy and you anywhere less remote than mcmurdo sound chances are very good that someone computer center dealership user group can provide you with copy stuffit once you have stuffit any version you don need binhex you such computer geek that the thought actually asking living breathing human being instead computer terminal for something turns you into quivering mass protoplasmic jelly you can probably download working copy stuffit from local bulletin board system you have religious objections software gotten any means other than anonymous ftp then suppose mention that you can fact ftp working copy stuffit though this far the hardest way get ftp wuarchive wustl edu and login type the word binary hit return type mirrors rascal ics utexas edu compression and hit return then get stuffit expander sea bin and hit return course always possible that the time you read this stuffit expander will have been updated and the name changed this fails look for something similar you ftp straight onto your mac you should now have self extracting archive which will produce working copy stuffit expander when double clicked you ftp your mainframe unix account first you still need use modem program download your mac just make sure that the mac receiving macbinary mode and the mainframe sending binary mode you need more details the last step consult the faq list for comp sys mac comm and the manuals for both your mainframe and macintosh telecommunications software how can get binhex stuffit etc from you can there absolutely way get executable macintosh file from ftp site onto and then onto your mac without some software obtained means other than anonymous ftp you must beg borrow steal the necessary software such binhex stuffit lite from another person realize this may terrify those among you who haven left your parents basement since you got apple but eventually you going need link with some human being other than your mother though suppose you this much nerd you could send your mother out get for you while you gathering your nerves for venture into the strange and terrifying world daylight please don bother the net asking this question again there simply way move executable macintosh programs from other non macintosh computer onto mac without software that not bundled with most macs troubleshooting what before posting when things wrong while the various faq lists cover lot specific problems there are far more problems that aren covered here these are few basic techniques you should follow before asking for help you should probably also perform the ten step preventative maintenance routine described section four especially rebuilding the desktop and resizing the system heap following these steps may may not solve your problem but will least make easier for others recommend solutions you identify the problem microsoft word crashing doesn say much what were you doing when crashed can you repeat the actions that lead the crash the more information you provide about the actions preceding the crash the more likely someone can help you the more precisely you identified the problem and the actions preceding step the easier will tell the following steps fix the problem for example sometimes quarkxpress crashes with coprocessor not installed error not nearly helpful quarkxpress crashes when link two text boxes master page when copies those text boxes already contain text the former will leave you wondering whether the bug remains after given step the latter lets you right the problem and see still there not read the read file many companies include list known incompatibilities and bugs their read files often these aren documented the manual read any read files see any the problems sound familiar check for viruses run disinfectant another anti viral across your disk virus infections are rarer than most people think but they occur and they cause all sorts weird problems when they reinstall the application and all its support files for half dozen reasons external magnetic fields improperly written software the alignment the planets file disk may not contain the data supposed contain this can cause all types unexplained unusual behavior restoring from original masters will normally fix this reinstall the system software bits are even more likely get twiddled the system file than the application and the effects can just disastrous see question for detailed procedure for performing clean reinstall the problem continues occur after you taken these steps chances are you found either conflict between your application and some other software genuine bug the program time isolate the problem you need find the minimal system which the problem will assert itself here are the basic steps isolating the cause system application crash run only one application time occasionally applications conflict with each other the problem does not manifest itself without other applications running simultaneously you can begin launching other applications until you find the one that causes the crash you running system turn off multifinder you running system allot much memory the application you can afford sometimes programs just need more memory especially when performing complicated operations you running system turn off virtual memory and bit addressing there still awful lot system hostile software out there including some from companies that really have excuse can you say microsoft word boys and girls knew you could some this software only expresses its incompatibilities when certain uncommon actions are taken boot from virgin system floppy the problem disappears you likely have init conflict you need progressively remove extensions until the problem vanishes use little common sense when choosing the first extensions remove the problem occurs when you try open file remove any inits that mess with the standard file open procedure such super boomerang first the problem remains after the obvious candidates have been eliminated either remove the remaining extensions one time you have lot them perform binary search removing half the extensions time once the problem disappears add half the most recently removed set back continue until you narrowed the conflict down one extension when you think you found the offending init restart with only that init enabled just make sure that and alone indeed causing the problem contact technical support now you should have very good idea when where and why the conflict occurs tech support number available for the software call you lucky the company will have work around fix available not perhaps they least add the bug their database problems fixed the next release preventive maintenance you wouldn drive your car miles without giving tune computer different regular tune ups avoid lot problems although there are mac mechanics who happy charge you more for the equivalent oil change there reason you can change yourself the following nine step program should performed about every three months trash unneeded files many the operations that follow will run faster and more smoothly the more free disk space there work with spend little time cleaning your hard disk you all like you find several megabytes worth preferences files for applications you longer have archives software you dearchived shareware you tried out and didn like announcements for events that have come and gone and many other files you longer need you running system you may also have several more megabytes your trash can alone throw them away and empty the trash rethink your extensions some macintoshes attract inits like new suit attracts rain seriously consider whether you actually need every extension your collection you don use the functionality extension least every fifth time you boot you probably better off not storing your system folder where only takes memory destabilizes your system and slows down every startup for instance you only read disks once month there need keep accesspc loaded all the time cutting back your extension habit can really help avoid crashes rebuild the desktop the desktop file database holds all the information necessary associate each file with the application that created lets the system know what application should launched when you open given file and what icons should display where depending its size each application has one more representatives the desktop file applications and files move and off your hard disk the desktop file can become bloated and corrupt think congress for your mac every often necessary throw the bums out and start with clean slate fortunately easier rebuild the desktop than defeat incumbent one warning rebuilding the desktop will erase all comments you stored the get info boxes under system maurice volaski freeware init commentkeeper will retain those comments across rebuild commentkeeper also works with system but only apple desktop manager extension also installed rebuild the desktop restart your mac and your extensions finish loading depress the command and option keys you presented with dialog box asking you want rebuild the desktop and warning you that this could take few minutes click will take more than few minutes the more files you have the longer will take you running system you may want turn off multifinder before trying rebuild the desktop you experiencing definite problems and not just doing preventive maintenance you may want use fifth generation freeware init desktop reset desktop reset completely deletes the desktop file before rebuilding thus eliminating possibly corrupt data structures zap the pram and reset the clock all macs from the original thin mac the quadra contain small amount battery powered ram hold certain settings that properly move with the cpu rather than with the disk such which disk boot from unfortunately this parameter ram can become corrupted and cause unexplained crashes reset under system hold down the command option and keys while restarting your mac under system hold down the command option and shift keys while selecting the control panel from the apple menu click yes when asked you want zap the parameter ram since you erased almost all the settings the general control panel you should now reset them whatever you want the one setting that zapping the pram does not erase the date and time but since the internal clock the macintosh notoriously inaccurate you probably want take this opportunity reset anyway resize the system heap even after rethinking their extensions per step two most people still have least half row icons march across the bottom their screen every time they restart all these extensions and most applications too need space section memory called the system heap the system heap isn big enough comfortably accommodate all the programs that want piece they all start playing king the mountain the system heap knocking each other off get bigger pieces for themselves and trying climb back after they get knocked off all this fighting amongst the programs severely degrades system performance and almost inevitably crashes the mac you using system your macintosh will automatically resize the system heap necessary but you running system important set your system heap size large enough manage all your extensions and applications default this size set way too small for most macs with any extensions all the system heap size stored the normally non editable boot blocks every system disk bill steinberg freeware utility bootman not only lets you resize your system heap but even checks how much memory your heap already using can tell how much needs allocated you running system get bootman use and amazed how infrequently your macintosh crashes reinstall the system software system files can become corrupt and fragmented especially you stored lots fonts and desk accessories inside them merely updating the system software will often not fix system file corruption recommend doing clean reinstall here how boot from the installer floppy your system disks copy any non standard fonts and desk accessories out your system file into temporary suitcase trash the system file your hard disk also trash the finder multifinder handler and all other standard apple extensions like control panel and chooser these will all replaced the new installation you running installing system move everything the extensions control panels and preferences folders into the top level the system folder rename the system folder any name other than system folder fine double click the installer script your system disk then choose customize select the appropriate software for your model mac and printer you could easy install instead but that will only add lot extensions and code you don need that waste your memory and disk space once installation finished move everything from the temporary folder you created step into the new system folder you asked you want replace anything you forgot take something out step you need replace things individually until you find the duplicate piece reinstall any fonts you removed step reboot you should now have clean defragmented system file that takes less memory and disk space and much more stable system overall disk utilities much like system files hard disks have data structures that occasionally become corrupted affecting performance and even causing data loss apple includes disk first aid simple utility for detecting and repairing hard disk problems with its system disks also available for anonymous ftp from ftp apple com the directory dts mac sys soft hdsc even you have earlier version you should get the latest version from ftp apple com and run all your hard disks several companies have released payware disk utilities that detect and repair considerably more problems than disk first aid though interestingly none them detect and repair everything that disk first aid does the three most effective for general work are central point mactools deluxe fifth generation public utilites and symantec norton utilities for the macintosh department work group should have all these well disk first aid since none them fix everything the others for individuals mactools street about half the price norton street public utilities street features and ease use being roughly equal recommend mactools all these products occasionally encounter problems they can fix when that happens time backup and reformat backing this one part preventative maintenance that should done lot more often than every three months the simplest back merely copy all the files your hard disk onto floppies other removable media you keep your data files separate from your application and support files then easy only back those folders which change frequently nonetheless every three months you should complete backup your hard disk number programs are available make backing easier apple included very basic full backup application with system with the performas apple ships new apple backup utility that can backup the entire disk just the system folder onto floppies the previously mentioned norton utilities for the mac and mactools deluxe include more powerful floppy backup utilities that incorporate compression and incremental backups finally you lucky enough have tape drive network server removable media device use for backups you should check out the more powerful payware utilities redux street doesn support tape drives and diskfit pro street there are freely available backup utilities other than the old backup from system disk defragmentation disks fill gets harder and harder find enough free space the same place write large files therefore the operating system will often split larger files into pieces stored different places your hard disk files become more and more fragmented performance can degrade there are several ways defragment hard disk the most tedious but

back your disk before defragmenting case something does wrong there are freeware shareware disk defragmenters please don annoy the net asking for one reformat your hard disk just floppy disk needs initialized before use hard disk must formatted before can hold data you don need reformat every three months but when your system crashing matter what you try reformatting the ultimate means wiping

advertising without lot asterisks megabytes the average formatted capacity your mileage may vary apple often formats drives the lowest common denominator drive capacity when you reformat there reason all not reclaim whatever unused space apple left your disk unlike floppies hard disks need special program initialize them most hard disks come with formatting software apple disks and system software ship with setup minimal disk formatter which will format apple brand hard drives only most other manufacturers ship appropriate formatting software with their hard drives normally this will all you need reformat your hard disk number general purpose formatters are also available which beyond the bundled software include features like encryption password protection multiple partitioning faster disk access system compatibility and even compression two the best are the payware drive and hard disk toolkit personal edition street for either while there are one two freeware formatters available none are likely superior the ones bundled with your hard disk powerbook users should sure turn off sleep and processor cycling before reformatting their hard drives matter what software they use

writes enter game developers the sound driver and current sound manager are inconveniently lame for making games the sound driver pretty since fast sound manager used the book useless disposing sound channels soon sound has completed out the question for games with smooth animation too slow why would you dispose channel you are going play more sounds soon you are trying write game you shouldn using sndplay instead make channel and use buffercmds play sounds works great you can add callbacks the channel also let you know when the channel getting empty before gets empty the sound driver much snappier than sound manager unfortunately system supports poorly making programs crash occasionally the moral the story developers don cheat well want code work old systems too don know about sys but least there are bugs the sound manager that causes channels hang with error message this happends when keep channel open for long periods necessary for performance and play many sounds stopping sounds halfway callbacks seems not reliable then only way can safely tell sound has stopped playing inspect private variables the channel qhead think was and the only way have found tell channel hung inspect undocumented flag and modify callbacks are very reliable found them reliable even under system was doing continuous background sound with interrupting sound effects system with the documentation you probably were cancelling your callback commands out your channels course you didn get called general you have problems with sounds working when you play one per channel and then close the channel with the related slowdown but then when you play more than one you don work then you are adding more than one synthesizer channel possibly the same one multiple times this might because you are calling sndplay preexisting channel with sound resource which adds the sampled sound synthesizer the channel first thing before plays most sampled sounds have this command the start them you need resedit the sound and remove that command then when you create your channel specify the sampled sound synthesizer the channel synth then you can use asynch sndplay all you want you probably want switch buffercmd since you are going have use snddocommand anyway add callbacks now before you ahead and tell full and the sound manager doesn work for games remember spectre uses and works great spectre can spare the cpu time you can too one little disclaimer there are some out there who say the sound manager the iisi can made work right not sure either way but know for sure that you can make your sounds work

modification testing out more stable higher speeds your mileage may vary the top speed you achieve cannot predicted before hand personal has tested fine mhz thus far didn have higher speed clock oscillators hand test higher speeds parts clock oscillators pin ttl variety you will need selection speeds beginning mhz the cpu will run the oscillator speed the original one mhz unit recommend getting mhz clock case you damage the existing one obtained clock oscillators from digikey for less than each some their part numbers are mhz ttl clock oscillator part mhz ttl clock oscillator part mhz ttl clock oscillator part ctx don get the half size clock oscillators they won fit there are also cmos clock oscillators haven tried one quadra they work fine iisi socket obtain pin socket which the same form factor pin dip package alternatively use machined socket pins from augat style socket just cut them out the socket cooling fan very small volt fan keep the cpu cool must vso came with specially modified heatsink which had fan built onto had pass through connector which tapped into the hard drive power cable you should rig something similar risk frying your cpu procedure insert usual disclaimer and antistatic warnings here remove the top lid the machine you will see the floppy disk and hard drive mounted plastic tower follow the usual anti static precautions and course make sure the machine off when you this unplug all cables wall and monitor power supply cords from the back the mac remove the power supply pulling the plastic interlocking tab the tower forward and simultaneously pulling the power supply straight the tab piece plastic from the left posterior aspect the tower which extends downward hook the power supply you may also feel horseshoe shaped piece the right portion the power supply leave that alone the plastic tab from the tower all you need release look the rear the tower assembly you will see the flat ribbon scsi connector the hard drive power cable and flat ribbon cable leading the floppy drive disconnect all these from the motherboard the hard drive power cable connector has tab which must squeezed release unplug the drive activity led from its clear plastic mount look down the posterior cylindrical section the plastic tower phillips head screw the base remove taking care not drop into the case bit gummy glue your screwdriver helpful here remove the tower assembly pulling medially the plastic tab the right side the tower this tab prevents the tower from sliding posteriorly slide the entire tower assembly posteriorly then lift the tower assembly straight and out the case remove the interrupt switch assembly strangely shaped plastic device the left front edge the motherboard pull the middle rear plastic prong and forward the entire device will release unplug the speaker cable squeeze the plastic tab the speaker free then swing backwards free from the case remove the motherboard form the case lift the front right corner the motherboard about this allows clear the clear plastic power light guide slide the motherboard forward about the motherboard then comes directly out locate the mhz clock crystal small metal box near the cpu chip note and remember its orientation the new clock oscillators must aligned with pin the same orientation very carefully desolder and remove the old clock oscillator some the pins may bent over simply desolder then unbend them sure your desoldering iron hot enough before heating the board used suction desoldering iron accomplish this task this not appropriate for first soldering experience the motherboard multi layer design with very fine traces easily damaged without proper care install your socket socket pins where the old oscillator once was put mhz clock oscillator into the new socket you could use the old clock but has solder its pins this may come inside the socket and cause corrosion problems later suggest using new mhz clock install your cooling fan system complete the modification reinsert the motherboard and slide into place snap the interrupt switch assembly and speaker lock the mother board firmly plug the speaker wire back into the motherboard reinstall the tower assembly first placing the right wall the tower against the right wall the case with the tower assembly about posterior its intended position lower the tower assembly into place while maintaining contact with the right wall the case once fully down slide the tower assembly anteriorly until clicks into place reconnect the motherboard ends the cables dont forget the floppy drive cable replace the phillips head screw drop the power supply straight down into place until clicks plug the hard drive activity light back into its clear plastic mount reattach your cables and power cords cross your fingers and turn the mac should make the usual power chord doesn something amiss immediately turn the power and recheck your handiwork all not well you have sincere condolences hopefully all will work normally turn the machine back off and replace the mhz clock oscillator with faster one reboot and astounded you will need fully test the machine for many hours before deciding particular speed truly usable with vso machine lock might take hours operation occur the brief time since modifying clock oscillator hours have not had single problem good luck all who attempt this modification there small but real risk but you could well reach quadra speeds higher with less than parts guy kuo guykuo washington edu comp.sys.mac.hardware cyclone tempest price any

the first board had this problem every about more often the cache was turned off yes off this the only symptom that not obviously related the video circuitry after all the cache the cpu right the second board had the problem every about minutes did not keep rather put the original back the current board have has this problem lot less often has gone about week without doing but did twice within hour yesterday the technicians that have come out try figure out seemed pretty sharp and tried number sensible things most which had previously tried ourselves anyway these included swapping the ram swapping the vram swapping monitors different apple rgb and apple rgb swapping cables disconnecting and booting from floppy sacrificing various small mammals here are some other facts when put rasterops procolor the nubus the problem fixed does not occur with the internal video the procolor video out the vendor cannot reproduce the problem back their shop the boards that exhibit our lab apple said getting little bit pissed off shipping boards that they cannot find anything wrong with and getting them shipped back faulty according here are some speculations bet that neither apple nor the vendor has tested these boards with that much ram and vram them simultaneaously which may have something with their finding hard reproduce the problem though can reproduce with just ram this

monitors can adequately deal with the video signal the mac uses drive the apple inch high resolution color display apple own mode you wish hook one these monitors your iisi you need adapter that converts from the mac connector the vga style high density connector but tells the mac use own mode not the vga mode and vga monitor that can deal with the higher bandwidth the mac mode over the vga mode which stated above the iisi cannot produce far above concerned contact james engineering inc fairmount ave cerrito fax they can probably get you the right adapter remember you not want the run the mill mac vga adapter because will try have your iisi produce the vga mode which cannot the computer will just fail produce any video signal all instead you want adapter that connects between the mac style and vga style connectors but tells the mac use the apple mode sorry for the poor terminology available for describing this distinction far concerned make sure get monitor that can deal with horizontal bandwidth khz and vertical retrace rate these are the spec apple mode for comparison the vga standard mode uses khz horizontal bandwidth and vertical retrace rate the monitor will probably

for days the front panel was replaced under warranty and the drive was shipped back quickly mailed first class insured saturday noon from missouri and came back fed friday don know exactly what day came back because was traveling that week from wednesday afternoon sunday afternoon the only thing that could been bad was that the first service rep talked attempt prevent jeopardizing data suggested

people actually use moreover the salary distinctions are incorrect received job offers upon graduation the two jobs that actually used hardware experience were year lower advice decide which classes and projects most interest you and pick the major that allows you take them emt well here worth advice from grad student agree with the gentlemen who wrote the comment before the important thing pick what ever interest you the most and learn much possible about five years education this field though brief compare alot people had think about this kind question lot did make the right decision going into electrical engineering opposed computer engineering the more thru school the more believe that this kind question irrelevant interesting think computer technology now becomming widespread enough now that longer position which must require degree know several people work with that make just much and they don even have degree comp sci yet they make year they also didn have pay grand thier local university either think computer programming being reduced trade practice than truly specialty field will even more the future your interested cutting edge type stuff and you choose did suggest checking out the emerging field software engineering the difficulties for example designing scaleable design environments for individuals that single person can handle million lines code all himself reasonable manner and then incorporate that into teamwork enviroment truly gigantic problem not going solved any time soon unfortunately but hey you could the person that provides the missing key for some good groundwork have come believe that choosing because one does not like hardware choosing hardware because one does not like program really doing injustice building and computer and making useful for something everything interwoven and inseparable and are all part really great discipline and depend each other advice don limit yourself but make decision based which major will give you the best opportunities learn that course depends the curriculum your persective school would choose major that allows explore much possible beside don know why the school would make student choose major before her his sophamore year hey you may interested this field that you decided learn all about the making computers which case you suffer little more and grad school about the money don look the averages you are good you are going earn more money than anyone else you are superstar programmer you will earn millions like wise you are hotshot computer designers well your like the poor slobs the world like you are financial position continue graduate work right out top comp sci school the trick find some generous inc you work for pay for the rest your education trust its the best way even you don get top salary which have always been poor slob throughout school but you follow this rule book salary food shelter you should always have computer and you won hungry what else could man want

that the remote machine has csh linux that rshell bin remote shell bin make same remote shell that path compatible use csh etc pass cookie the remote machine need but does know what with cookie eat

susan walker writes have found situation which think bug motif but hoping really just mistake part does anyone know anything about this problem using xmtextfield and setting its xmnvalue hardcoded text string ascii kanji either via xtsetvalues xmtextsetstring the problem that when the xmtextfield displayed the text getting truncated depending the setting the environment variables lang more specifically all when they are set japanese the text gets truncated when they are set english everything works fine taking the default for xmncolumns please note that hardcoding text not done actual application just sample code make things easier running motif via hpux test program set handle bit kanji characters have remembered xtsetlanguageproc prior mrminitialize and font resources are set japanese fonts don know this matters but dialog box and textfield initially created with uil the problem does not happen with xmtext unfortunately substituting xmtextfields with xmtexts application not acceptable alternative way too much code modified while beta have small test program which illustrates the problem anyone wants best guess that either the code motif not properly allocating memory

fix for this exact problem from fisher iscp bellcore com greg fisher the most serious problem have identified has not been incorporated this problem occurs when the table widget geometrymanager invoked child this will work correctly the table widgets parent complies with the protocols however they not the case for some motif widgets and they ignore xtcwqueryonly then the sizing will incorrect order see this problem the following events must happen child the table widget must request new size the table widget must query its parent for new size having set xtcwqueryonly the parent must ignore the xtcwqueryonly bit and resize the table widget part the resize xmptableforgetproposedlayout called this will set table current cols and table current rows zero the table will continue setting the new size working under the assumption that working with proposed and not actual layout the end will call xmptablesaveproposedlayout this will save table cols and table rows and restore their values from table current cols and table current rows however these have already been set zero since the table widget has already been resized will not need second resize next another widget managed some ancestor the table resized this results the parent the table requesting the tables preferred size since table cols and table rows are zero this will return the preferred size the parent very likely grant this request resulting loss the whole table from the display isolated the problem proposed workaround which seems precisely correct here the new implementation

have one machine running supporting multiple users clients and require adequate response time anyone have any ideas expect the limiting factor will your server machine not the network itself give you real world example here quarterdeck have roughly people using dvx talk bunch unix boxes novell file servers and each other not too much load our ethernet with maybe concentrators you have people each segment you had badly loaded net the apps you wanted run were very network intensive you could run into some slowdowns but the biggest problem would the machine itself say you have with plenty ram and fast hard disk and network card you have people running programs off you going see some slowdowns because you now effectively mhz course dvx will attempt see tasks are idle and make sure they give their time slice but you have working programs running you know well can buy bigger and more powerful server machine because the significant drop price year after year the link want use though isdn costly and the bandwidth limited that why interest lies seeing such link can used and see what traffic goes through since don think tom always gets time read this group take the liberty responding some this you really want tom reply you should send mail support qdeck com line certainly going restrict you far more than the mbps ethernet that typically run how restrictive will depends what you run and how you run would think that couple instances some really nasty program like smoking clover would make the link useless for anyone else the other hand probably xclocks quietly updating every

some unusual cases the entire screen may need repainted assuning screen with bits per pixel that bits that has sent worst possible case you looking about seconds reality would never this bad since the

coord and their right left sides touching what need ask for the coord the window manager border for the main window this should ring bell with anyone who has called xtmovewidget immediately checking the after the move and seeing that right and their next callback asking for the and seeing that now offset the border any help would most appreciated darcy darcy mccallum mentorg com have done this before but not sure used the best approach although tried several methods you have run the window heirarchy using xquerytree until you get the root window now this not simple because some window managers slap window over the root window that the same size the root window sure take that into account for further calculations calculate the position and width height offsets for each window using xgetgeometry sure take the border width into consideration remember windows border width the outside window the windows width height must adjusted accordingly all this should give you pretty good numbers for how much space the window manager using now place the new window you have use the same numbers calculate where you want place because the window manager will parent the outside where you place your window remember correctly disclaimer all this from memory and longer have the code but did get working under several window managers correctly feel free call mail for further info mcgary

network manager instability course crashed machine quite few times purpose during beta testing and that sort thing but the tcpip portion quite stable however keep mind that dvx and the network managers are only going stable the software they sit top your underlying network kernel flakey you can expect dvx terribly stable how does send the information from windows app over the protocol does just draw everything graphics into one window does use multiple windows and essentially work more cleverly just goes window that has graphics drawn into vastly over simplify what goes just take the windows graphics api calls and translate them directly protocol unfortunately windows was not really written network aware sometimes see speed penalty when app does something stupid like sending big white bitmap erase something rather than just drawing white box fortunately that sort thing rare want run word for example remotely have run separate copy windows remotely and then start word from that can word started remotely its own you need run windows which word then runs inside you could run multiple windows programs within the one winx window and windows has ways automagically start

team would interested including with future xfree releases you are purchasing new hardware for the purpose using xfree suggested that you purchase based board such the orchid prodesigner iis avoid recent diamond boards xfree will not work with them because diamond won provide programming details fact the xfree project actively not supporting new diamond products long such policies remain effect contributions code will not accepted because the potential liabilities you would like see this change tell diamond about some people have asked xfree would work with local bus eisa video cards theoretically the means communication between the cpu and the video card irrelevant xfree compatibility could isa eisa local bus what should matter the chipset the video card unfortunately the developers don have lot access eisa vlb machines this largely untested theory however have yet see any reports things not working one these buses and have several reports xfree working fine them what about accelerated boards this time there support xfree for accelerated boards like the ati ultra tiga etc this support available commercial products from sgcs and metrolink for svr and svr server available for bsd and linux contact hasty netcom com for bsd jon robots for linux beta server available for linux contact martin unc edu jon robots note these servers are not part xfree why doesn xfree support color vga modes the reason that this not supported the way vga implements the color modes color modes each byte frame buffer memory contains pixel but the color modes are implemented bit planes each byte frame buffer memory contains bit from each each pixels and there are four such planes the mit frame buffer code not designed deal with this vga handled color modes packing bit pixels into each byte the mit code could modified support this already may not sure but for the vga way doing things complete new frame buffer implementation required some beta testers are looking into this but nothing yet available from the project what other hardware software requirements are there obviously supported svga board and are required run efficiently memory should considered minimum the various binary releases take disk space depending the whether not supports shared libraries build from sources least free disk space will required although should considered comfortable lower bound

get them right when you send the information david wexelblat for inclusion the database note the old clock exe program not supported any more and completely unnecessary you need determine dot clock values for new board remove the clocks line from your xconfig file present and start the server the server will probe for clocks itself and print them out you can use these values put clocks line into your xconfig file which not necessary but will speed starting the server the future rebuilding reconfiguring the server from the link kit you have installed the server binary link kit possible reconfigure the drivers and font renderers the server this fully explained the readme file that available with the link kit what specific things should know about running xfree first all the server must installed suid root mode svr why won xterm run properly your kernel not built with the consem module you should define consem you environment otherwise xterm won run csh users should use setenv

building xfree from source this section has been removed from the faq since fully explained ftp readme and the specific readmes please look those files for information building xfree vii there anything special about building clients with xfree bsd compatibility library lot clients make use bsd functions like bcopy etc the default configuration files are set link with libxbsd which contains emulation for bcopy bzero bcmp ffs random seed better way providing the functions include xfuncs source files that call them xfuncs provides macro definitions for these terms the sysv mem functions you are linking with vendor supplied library which calls some these functions then you should link with libxbsd ansiccoptions this something that was added allow developer get rid the ansi ness defined the default ccoptions without having rewrite the entire ccoptions line for example with stock mit you see something like ccoptions ansi fwritable strings and get rid the ansi ness the developer would have put ccoptions fwritable strings his imakefile with this change you would see default ansiccoptions ansi ccoptions fwritable strings and all the developer would have put the imakefile ansiccoptions get rid the ansi ness many clients will die horrible death with ansi the effect even more dramatic practice because ccoptions actually quite complex the other issue that one

windowing environment that conforms the open look graphical user interface specifications compatible with the window system from mit well currently sun news and sunview you can intermix programs written for any those systems comes from sun and also with system release from certain vendors openwindows sometimes also called openwin xnews after the program used start and the main executable itself respectively should not called windows open look openlook these terms are either wrong apply something else commerical openwindows source licence costs about for the server plus about for deskset and another for tooltalk the current versions openwindows for various platforms are sunos sun solaris sunos sparc solaris sunos sparc see also mixing and openwindows where can get what are olit xview and tnt these are all toolkits for programmers use developing programs that conform the open look specifications see the bibliography for documentation the individual toolkits here brief summary olit was open look intrinsics toolkit for the window system used widget set and was probably the easiest for people who were already programmers learn you could buy the source from although you didn get the same version tht sun ship sun includes the olit library openwindows also often included system release was written the release olit openwindows was olit olit support passed usl then division now owned novell who replaced with moolit note that because the nature subclassing you will probably want need olit source order develop large application anything else that uses subclasses see the proceedings the technical conference xview sun toolkit for written xview similar programmer interface sunview there even shell script help migrate source code from sunview xview xview often said the easiest toolkit learn you are not familiar with windows the xview toolkit included openwindows and full source available anonymous ftp from export lcs mit edu and elsewhere the current version xview from sun despite rumours the contrary some even from within sun the xview toolkit not about dropped sun xview will included the next release openwindows unlike news the other hand the xview toolkit not likely receive much attention from sun the future olit the news toolkit tnt was object oriented programming system based the postscript language and news tnt implements many the open look interface components required build the user interface application currently included openwindows the current version tnt from sun release contains some incompatibilities with tnt and tnt but sun are committed supporting the api least until they stop news support some time later this year and replace with display postscript wail you might ask what committed means this context the answer seems that means absolutely nothing sun currently asserts that committed olit however the user interface toolkit uit consists object oriented class library layered top xview and tool generate code from devguide gil files the uit also includes features that simplify event management and the use postscript and color said compatible with openwindows and and presumably since the release mentions that works solaris uit not official sun supported product but ongoing project various people within sun can found export lcs mit edu the mit contrib directory uitv tar use binary mode where does motif fit doesn motif alternative graphical user interface that being developed osf has look and feel reminiscent microsoft windows and the presentation manager there are non commercial motif toolkits available although the motif source sold reasonably cheaply osf although motif currently available more platforms than openwindows the open look gui almost certainly used many more machines simply because sun and sysvr have such large installed base sun ware volume contains roadmap for improving motif applications converting them olit there are also notes the periodic table olit demo openwinhome demo olittable what moolit moolit version olit from usl that lets users choose between motif and open look feel run time will part system release contact joanne newbauer usl com what about that display postscript thing sun and adobe have agreed that sun will include the dps extension the next release openwindows dps essentially badly designed hack top slow level postscript interpreter intended give very small subset the functionality news whilst simultaneously being harder use understand the only real advantage has over news that the manual much smaller being generally less complete dps also available more kinds machine performance our not suitable for interactive work what will like the sparcstation remains seen note that whereas news fonts are shared both subsystems the dps extension does not make type postscript fonts available ordinary programs not like atm this regard there least one third party version which does make fonts available however subject window managers olwm olvwm what are olwm and olvwm they are window managers window manager the part the window system that responsible for deciding how lay out windows the screen and for managing the user interaction with the windows olwm the standard open look window manager included with all the openwindows implementations and you can also get the source ftp since sun donated olvwm version olwm that manages virtual desktop hence the its name shows little map the screen with the currently displayed area represented little rectangle you can move around dragging the rectangle with the arrow keys this lets you run several clients applications and move the display around from one the other olvwm was derived from the openwindows olwm scott oaks you need have xview compile get olvwm from ftp site such export lcs mit edu the contrib directory there are three patches can use favorite window manager with openwindows instead olwm yes you use twm for example mwm you won able use the pin and unpin feature olwm and you probably won see the footers some windows use display certain messages you use twm you want use the delete function unpin menus and get rid programs that don have quit button when not run under olwm for twm put this your home twmrc lefttitlebutton target delete where target icon from usr include bitmaps alternatively try add menu each window managed twm tvtwm lefttitlebutton menu menu menu menu menu quit delete for mwm you can double click the menu icon the left the title bar dismiss pop window told see the manual page for your window manager twm etc subject openwindows terminals and other displays can use olwm and olvwm without openwindows terminal the openwindows xnews server combines sunview news postscript and this means that can run programs compiled for any those systems unfortunately means that some openwindows programs need either news sunview support and thus won run terminal this includes pageview particular you can use olwm olvwm see above terminal non open windows display and most open look clients olit xview ones will work perfectly well you may find that you get complaints about fonts not being found see the fonts section below you are running the window manager built ncd terminal you may have problems with input focus setting input true the terminal xdefault file usr lib xdm may may not help subject configuration files getting started with openwindows what configuration files need know about xinitrc and xsessionrc the first time you run openwindows xinitrc file will created your login directory home already exists you might have edit somewhat simplest move and any other old files you have another directory and then merge the old and new files your site uses xdm you should use xsession instead xinitrc since xdm doesn look your xinitrc file openwin init openwin menu and openwin sys these are optional files you can create your home directory depending which version olwm olvwm you use look openwinhome lib normally usr openwin lib for these files without the leading and copy any you want change you may need edit your xinitrc get them recognized you are not terminal you will want run console window such cmdtool shelltool xterm chuck musciano contool program that system output will directed there instead writing over your screen note that openwin sys not executed unless you edit xinitrc xdefaults you can put windows resource specifications here particular good idea include least openwindows focuslenience true input true these allow non icccm compliant programs receive input even they forget ask for props the program that runs when you select properties from the default root menu under olwm olvwm writes your choices into xdefaults don put comments xdefaults since props deletes them startup this the news user profile file read openwindows actually xnews startup this documented the news programming manual near the back the most useful thing put here postscript code change the keyboard repeat rate although you must very careful since syntax error the postscript means that xnews will either not start all will get broken strange ways the news manual gives code that both incorrect and insufficient warning things this file rarely work both openwindows and note that the mouse speed best set your xinitrc with xset see the man page for xset man xset and xset help for more information here what home startup should look like you want delay about third second microseconds and repeat rate twenty keys per second microseconds between repeats for openwindows you have experiment bit because the repeattime the delay between keys sent and thus doesn include the time process each key which probably higher than your supersparc gti injection again this for openwindows don want the demos see xxxii news toolkit reference manual includedemos false def userprofile begin keyrepeatthresh timeval storetimeval def keyrepeattime timeval storetimeval def note and differ greatly end you must also have user file the same directory like this news findpackage beginpackage tntcore findpackage beginpackage tnt findpackage beginpackage classrepeatkeys pop force repeat autoload endpackage endpackage endpackage you change these parameters you can test them without restarting the openwindows server like this psh startup welcome news version psh welcome news version classinit classrepeatkeys send now press control you can also either these two files startup and user make the root window retained that postscript drawing the background won erased when you move windows frambuffer retained true put will this note that this may increase the amount memory used the news server xnews dramatically see also trouble shooting won let type trouble shooting there easy way edit xdefaults environment variables how can configure open look for left handed mouse and keyboard you can use xmodmap change the mouse buttons but prepared for one two occasional surprises see also man xview for list keybindings you can change least for xview programs with openwindows you can use defaultsedit set the mouse mappings and then let sunview handle them the status returned svenv should tell you whether your server running under sunview not put this your xinitrc eval svenv env then xmodmap pointer input from defaults else xmodmap pointer how can get the screen blank when the system idle run screenblank from etc local you can boring but effective screen saver see man screenblank under solaris you need copy screenblank from older system not supplied then add new file etc make the system run screenblank automatically subject key bindings cut and paste how cut and paste between xterm and openwindows programs from xterm textedit say select the text you want copy dragging the select mouse button xterm press copy the xterm this key meta the reilly xview manual gets this wrong move the textedit window and press paste meta this doesn work see trouble shooting cut and paste the other way from textedit xterm select the text textedit need use copy move the xterm window and press adjust the middle mouse button you can also use the copy cut and paste buttons copy paste boring what short cuts are available quick copy within textedit mailtool etc click select get text caret where you want the copied text press and hold down the paste cut button select the text you want copy move you see that underlined crossed out appropriate the jed demo goes grey let the paste cut button the text you underlined crossed out appears the insert caret drag and drop move selection select the text you want copy move dragging multiple clicking the select adjust mouse button put the mouse pointer anywhere within the selection press and hold down down the select mouse button and move the mouse pointer little the right you see the cursor changes the first letters the text some other icon still holding select down move the mouse over the point where you want drop the text you may see the mouse pointer change rifle sight target show that drop things here let select and the text moved this works text fields dialogue boxes well text subwindows drag and drop copy selection this the same using drag and drop move selection except that you must hold the control key down well the select mouse button what are the default key bindings textedit and elsewhere see the man page for

openwin logging through xdm not start dies check that there tmp sel svc before restarting you may need root remove you can reboot your workstation check that there space tmp use tmp and also see there are lot files there with names like tmp tty txt there are several hundred them cut and paste may take long that times out quit any deskset tools such mailtool filemgr and calendar start terminal emulator and remove and tmp tty txt and tmp text files that are still there simplest quit openwin and start again after doing that cut and paste was broken but starts working again you can just carry note that files tmp not owned you might use another worker comrade don remove those without checking first subject trouble shooting not authorized use display you get error messages that look like xlib connection refused server xlib internal error during connection authorization check error can open display try the machine running openwindows xhost machine where machine the computer which you ran the command that failed you want let other users run programs the same machine you using your display you will have type the bizarre looking xhost hostname xhost happyboy happyboy the name your workstation this lets any user happyboy access your display with openwindows you can also use xauth and the programmer guide describes how this chapter this more secure also check the man page for fbtab stop other users accessing the framebuffer directly also note that there sun patch for openwindows under sunos fix serious security problem available through your local sun answer center well through anonymous ftp from ftp net system sun dist fix patchid filename checksum loadmodule tar terminal there may setup menu that lets you change disable the list hosts that can access the display you start getting this message after you been logged overnight there might cron job that removing the unix sockets tmp that are used communicate with the server when display doesn have hostname before the empty have the system administrator change the cron script skip sockets subject trouble shooting other common problems get console error messages screen and they don away sun refresh makes the messages vanish but new ones come along later you need run xterm from your xinitrc start one the background and then choose save workspace from the workspace utilities menu better still pick contool and run that get from export lcs mit edu the contrib directory will monitor the console and open flash its icon beep when message appears very easy configure refresh from the workspace utilities menu doesn make the messages away sun with frame buffer has two screens you can move the mouse off the right hand default edge the screen and onto whole new but monochrome display called see the man page for openwin have shell script that checks for this and there dev cgfour does openwin dev dev cgfour dev dev bwtwo you are running openwindows you might need add this your xinitrc other startup file eval svenv display unix env olvwm display unix later releases olwm and olvwm this automatically you can also run switcher get rid the messages also see the note about contool above there easy way editing xdefaults use props which appears the default root menu properties this starts props property editor which will write your xdefaults after removing comments then applies any changes keep comments using comment instead for example comment font palatino italic how get the file manager use emacs instead textedit set the default editor exec emacs font lucidasanstypewriter file you can change the font you prefer smaller one how run openwindows inverse video this tends not work under openwindows with opwnwindows there are various ways including using and options you using openwindows sun probably the best you can short upgrading the workstation sparc use xterm instead cmdtool why don flat check boxes work known bug may make guide output dump core you use these workaround edit the guide output only guide output that broken not the actual check box code this applies only versions devguide before devguide you still using ancient devguide you should upgrade soon possible the new one fantastic when leave openwindows screen goes blank mouse cursor stays the screen try running clear colormap this helps put the last line the shell script you use start openwindows openwin when use snapshot the system crashes the server hangs something this was bug related some systems only the only work round was use some other screen dump program such xwd xgrabsc why have some function keys stopped working keys and changed from sunf and sunf sunxk and sunxk respectively openwindows applications must recompiled you might able use xmodmap the public domain xkeycaps program change your keyboard layout back again when type shelltool cmdtool textedit get the sunview version see under trouble shooting strange error messages below see also next item mixing and openwindows see also next item note that openwindows includes the core distribution patch level but not the contrib directory these notes apply openwindows although you could also the same sort thing with openwindows and install the libraries usr lib you can intermix openwindows and they all compatible this respect put the binaries for example usr bin put usr bin last your path that you get openwindows versions programs instead ones where appropriate although this matter preference any event put the openwindows bin directory first see the preceding item for more details that you have bin usr bin they the same directory sunos earlier your path than openwinhome bin xview you get sunview programs instead openwindows ones set library path that usr openwin lib last after the library directory this doesn matter with openwindows but with older versions you get error messages from programs you don this the messages are generally harmless see next item although xdm core dumps this isn right set openwinhome the directory containing openwindows isn usr openwin see also environment variables especially xfilesearchpath get error messages screen about libx not found set library path usr openwin you also use use usr lib usr lib usr openwin lib you put this shell script your profile use openwinhome usr openwin lib instead usr openwin this for bin for csh different launch filemgr and get map heap error dev zero your system needs patched look openwinhome lib ospatches and install the patch why doesn answerbook run for you must running openwindows use answerbook won run under terminal anything else because uses news draw the postscript text and pictures you are using openwindows you need use the openwindows compatible navigator called navigator the answerbook rom all answerbook users are using openwindows you can replace navigator wih navigator altogether rename the old one first satisfy your sense paranoia the navigator binary also ware vol note that the data files are postscript you can look them with postsript viewer why aren there any fish realxfishdb fixed version realxfishdb available ftp from ftp eng auburn edu pub realxfishdb why the properties choice

then restart the window system cmap compact init will push those colors owcolors the end the colormap and reserves them also note that control locks the colors the current window and control unlocks them this described the olwm manual page pageiew uses the wrong colors makes the colormap flash see above this problem was reported people for some reason running the motif window manager mwm with

the choice which use necessity balancing act between performance and useful features this point most respondents have agreed upon twm the best candidate for speedy window manager couple generic tricks you can try soup your window manger turning off unnecessary things like zooming and opaque move also you lay out your windows tiled manner you reduce the amount cpu power spent raising and lowering overlapping windows joe english joe trystero art com found that good font for tiling aka misc fixed medium normal iso the biggest font know that can use sun screen and still get two column terminal windows side side the display with overlap other font suggestions will accepted the server which server make sure that your server proper match for your hardware you have monochrome monitor use

paging thanks jonny farringdon farringdon psychol ucl michael salmon michael salmon eos ericsson how your server was compiled can also make difference jeff law law schirf utah edu advises that sun

help performance all had one inquiry this topic and few pointers the plock function call but hard evidence from someone who tried not position give try thanks eric claeys ecc eperm att com danny backx sunbim juan martin juando cnm starting your server joe english joe trystero art com you start lot clients your xsession whatever sleep for second two after launching each one after changed xclients script this logging actually took less time have heavily loaded system without much core though this sounds crazy but have confirmed that works warner losh imp solbourne com provided with good explanation why this works which have summarized here when you start server takes huge amount time start accepting connections lot initialization done the server when starts this process touches large number pages any other process running the same time would fight the server for use the cpu and more importantly memory you put sleep there you give the server chance get itself sorted out before the clients start similarly there also lot initialization whenever client program starts toolkits registering widgets resources being fetched programs initializing state and databases and forth all this activity typically memory intensive once this initialization done the process has reached steady state the memory usage typically settles down using only few pages using sleeps stagger the launching your clients your xinitrc you avoid them fighting each other for your workstation limited resources this most definitely your mileage may vary situation there are many variables considered available ram local swap space load average number users your system which clients you are starting etc currently xinitrc have situation like sleep exec xclock sleep exec xbiff sleep exec xterm sleep exec xterm experimented with sleep exec xclock sleep exec xbiff sleep exec xterm sleep exec xterm even tried sleep exec start clients script and then start clients script had sleep exec xclock sleep exec xbiff sleep exec xterm sleep exec xterm the idea with this last one was make sure that xinit had completely finished processing xinitrc and had settled down into steady state before the sleep expired and all clients were launched all these yielded fairly comparable results and just stuck with current setup for its simplicity you will probably have experiment bit find setup which suits you fonts loading fonts takes time and ram you minimize the number fonts your applications use you get speed increases load time one simple strategy choose small number fonts one small one large one roman whatever suits you and configure all your clients least all your heavily used clients use only those few fonts client programs should start quicker their font already loaded into the server this will also conserve server resources since fewer fonts will loaded the server farrell mckay fbm ptcburp ptcbu joe english joe trystero art com main xterm font also have twm set use all menus and icons etc twm default font since don normally use eliminated one font from server oliver jones roadrunner pictel com keep fonts local the workstation rather than loading them over nfs you will make extensive use scalable fonts use font server about the resources file keep your xresources xdefaults file small saves ram and saves server startup time joe english joe trystero art com one suggestion your xdefaults xresources file try putting only the minimum number resources that you want have available all your applications for example reversevideo true then separate your resources into individual client specific resource files for example home lib app defaults your login file set the environment variable xuserfilesearchpath setenv xuserfilesearchpath home lib app defaults the comp windows frequently asked questions faq contains excellent explanation how these environment variables work when xterm launches loads its resources from app defaults xterm xdvi finds them app defaults xdvi and and forth note that not all clients follow the same xxxxx resource file naming pattern you can check your system app defaults directory often usr lib app defaults find the proper name and then name your personal resource files with the same name this all documented the specification thanks kevin samborn samborn mtkgc com michael urban urban cobra jpl nasa gov and mike long mikel cornell edu kevin willing mail his setup files inquirers this method organizing your personal resources has the following benefits easier maintain more usable fewer resources are stored the server the resource manager property side benefit your server may start fractionally quicker since doesn have load all your resources applications only process their own resources never have sort through all your resources find the ones that affect them also has drawbacks the application that you are interested has load additional file every time starts this doesn seem make that much performance difference and you might consider this huge boon usability you are modifying application resource database you just need run the application without having xrdb again xrdb will default run your xdefaults file through cpp when your resources are split out into multiple resource files and then loaded the individual client programs they will not watch out for this had style comments xdefaults file which cpp stripped out when switched this method distributed resource files spent several frustrating days trying figure out why clients were not finding their resources did not provide any error message when encountered the style comments the resource files simply silently aborted processing the resource file the loss preprocessing which can very handy ifdef color enough cause some people dismiss this method resource management you may also run into some clients which break the rules for example neither emacs nor xvt will find their resources they are anywhere other than xdefaults when starting client machine that does not share files with the machine where your resources are stored your client will not find its resources loading all your resources into the server will guarantee that all your clients will always find their resources casey leedom casey gauss llnl gov possible compromise suggestion that have and planning trying put resources for all heavily used clients xterm into xdefaults file and use the separate resources files method for clients that seldom use define your display properly client programs are often executed the same machine the server that situation rather than setting your display environment variable hostname where hostname the name your workstation you should set your display variable unix doing this you access optimized routines that know that the server the same machine and use shared memory method transferring requests thanks patrick horgan pjh ras amdahl com see the display names section the man page for further explanation how properly set your display name don think stock mit but least data general and have libraries that are smart enough use local communication even when the display isn set specially rob sartin opensi sartin uunet net jody goldberg jody algorithmics com sent xlib patch change stock use local communication even display not properly set don want get the business distributing trying juggle non mit patches and have elected not include here hopefully mit will apply this minor lines patch themselves the meantime you want try yourself email jody clients you only have few megabytes ram then you should think carefully about the number programs you are running think also about the kind programs you are running for example there smaller clock program than xclock unfortunately haven really noticed that programs advertise how large they are the onus the research and spread the word suggestions better alternatives the some the standard clients xclock xterm xbiff are welcome received some contradictory advice from people the subject client programs some advocate the use programs that are strictly xlib based since xaw and other toolkits are rather large others warn that other applications which you are using may have already loaded one more these shared libraries this case using non for example client program may actually increase the amount ram consumed the upshot all this seems don mix toolkits that try and use just athena clients just xview clients just motif clients etc you use more than one then you dragging more than one toolkit library know your environment and think carefully

the most ugly program the distribution ugly maybe but site still the most used suspect that xterm one the most used clients many not most sites laziness isn there better terminal emulator available

xterm you don have rename your resources xvt pretends xterm current version you cannot bind keys you can xterm heard that there are versions xvt with this feature but not found any yet update march recently had few email conversations with brian warkentin brian warkentine eng sun com regarding xvt questions whether xvt really all faster than xterm for instance xvt may initialize slightly faster but compare scrolling speed try this quickie benchmark bin time etc termcap and see which program can scroll faster also while xterm may slightly larger ram requirements don have any hard numbers here does anyone else shared libraries and shared text segments mean that xterm paging requirements are not that major experiment ripped out all the tek stuff from xterm but made little difference since you never use never gets brought into memory here stand with some conflicting reports the validity xvt over xterm summary caveat emptor your mileage may vary you can provide some hard data like see specifically how much ram each occupies how much swap each needs relative speed each mterm suggested der mouse mouse lightning mcrcim mcgill edu available larry mcrcim mcgill edu mterm src mterm ball wax also have own terminal emulator its major lack scrollback but some people like anyway tuning your client suggestions how you can tune your client programs work faster from scott barman scott asd com comes suggestion regarding motif text field widgets noticed that during data entry into motif text field widgets was getting slight lag response some keystrokes particularly the initial one the field examining the what was going with xscope found seems that when the resource xmnblinkrate non zero and the focus text field widget even just text widget the beam cursor will blink every time the cursor appears disappears those widgets the widget code making request the server copyarea the user can stop this setting the resource xmnblinkrate not noticeable mhz sparc but does make little difference slower system this specific suggestion can probably applied general lots areas consider your heavily used clients are there any minor embellishments that can turned off and thereby save server requests miscellaneous suggestions pretty pictures don use large bitmaps gif etc root window backgrounds the more complicated your root window bitmap the slower the server redrawing your screen when you reposition windows redraw etc these take ram and cpu power work sun sparc and conscious performance issues can comprehend when see people with sun running xphoon their root window let someone else figure out how much ram would occupied having full screen root image colour workstation you anything like you need all the screen real estate that you can get for clients and rarely see the root window anyway thanks qiang alex zhao azhao arizona edu for reminding this one quicker mouse using xset you can adjust how fast your pointer moves the screen when you move your mouse use xset xinitrc file which lets send pointer across the screen with just flick the wrist see the xset man page for further ideas and information hint sometimes you may want slow down your mouse tracking for fine work cover options have placed number different mouse setting commands into menu window manager for twm menu mouse settings mouse settings title very fast xset normal fast xset system default accelerated xset default glacial xset programming thoughts joe english joe trystero art com speed applications that you developing there are tons things you can some that stick out for motif programs don set xmfontlist resources for individual buttons labels lists use the defaultfontlist labelfontlist whatever resource the highest level manager widget again stick few fonts possible better yet don use motif all absolute pig don create and destroy widgets the fly try reuse them this will avoid many problems with buggy toolkits too use line width gcs some servers this makes huge difference compress and collapse multiple expose events this can make the difference between fast application and completely unusable one francois staes frans kiwi uia just small remark once heard that using better malloc function would greatly increase performance based applications since they use malloc heavily they suggested trying out the gnuy malloc but didn find the time yet did some tests small programs just doing malloc and free and the differences were indeed very noticeable somewhat times faster any confirmation this from anyone andre beck andre beck irs inf dresden unnecessary noexpose events most people use xcopyarea xcopyplane fastest blit routines but they forget reset graphics exposures the used for the blits this will cause noexpose event every blit that most cases only puts load onto the connection and forces the client run through event loop again and again thousands xchangegc requests this gfx context switching also seen most handcoded apps where only one few gcs are created and then heavily changed again and again uses definitely better mechanism caching and sharing lot gcs with all needed parameters this will remove the load subsequent xchangegc requests from the connection moving toward the client startup phase say what some contributors proposed ideas that seem right off the wall first david lewis day dbl osf org night david craft uunet net how about this swap displays with someone else run all your programs the other machine and display locally the other user runs off your machine onto the other display goal reduce context switches the same operation between client and server not situation where can easily try this but have received the following confirmation michael salmon michael salmon eos ericsson regularly run programs other machines and notice big difference try run machine where will reduce net usage and usually with nice reduce the impact intrusion this helps lot poor little with only was essential when only had casey leedom casey gauss llnl gov the server and the client are competing for the same cpu your server when you run the same machine not really major problem except that the client and the server are absolute synchronicity and are context thrashing timothy panton thp westhawk uucp firstly relies the fact that most cpu are mostly idle cpu usage bursty the chances you and your teammate doing something cpu intensive the same time small they are not then you get twice the cpu memory available for your action the second factor that context switches are expensive using cpu halves them you pay price due the overhead going over the network but this offset most cases the improved buffering network typically for pipe allowing even fewer context switches other sources information volume reilly window system series window system

done already and can point some tools that would help what they like given window that taking long time draw because either the data arriving over slow link the display across slow link they would like first paint low resolution version the picture and then repaint higher resolution thus the picture might first generated resolution with each square pixels being filled with single color next each square would replaced squares finally the version would painted since one the scenarios with the window being the other side slow link the low res version obviously wouldn transmitted bitmap that wouldn help all instead there would have process the far end that receives the low res picture small bitmap and blows each pixel into square sorta like the magnifier programs this brings the question whether the server can help that when window opened there way ask that filter program run process the pixels the only way use something like rsh start remote process permission denied and have open local window seems the most likely scenario library routine that starts such program remotely and then accepts bitmaps compressing each one some amount and sending them the remote program expand but there something that itself can help nice hear about looked several fms but there obviously don know the keywords someone has nifty tool available that packages all might want get copy yes this run

have linedraw fixed spacing and several sizes the only standard fonts which work are the fonts like and under misc they work great except need font one size larger now works well but there bold counterpart make matters worse need the fonts some form can use for tektronix xterminals seems they like pcf format although should able convert bdf format anyone have any suggestions mark davis lake taylor hospital norfolk sys administrator computer services mark taylor mark taylor uucp this would tedious but you have the time you could get the bdf file can email you you don have don have easy access the source and could make your own bold font from this since each glyph just bitmap you could write program convert each glyph bitmap readable file use bitmap make each glyph bold and convert the results back bdf format then use bdftopcf create the pcf file then stick the pcf usr lib fonts misc wherever and include fonts dir and voila you have what you need ernie coskrey ncr corporation

upon and the toolkit designed simple and intuitive programming interface access the functionality commonly used widgets was initially created for the motif widget set now support for the athena widgets was added applications created with run both environments without changes although many nice features are only available when using motif some situations extends the underlying toolkit providing combobox borrowed from windows but never tries replace data user interface objects left the widgets and only duplicated rare cases has nothing common with motif besides the general idea encapsulate motif widgets objects and the name many ideas for the architecture came from digitalk smalltalk version which provides easy use framework for windows mac applications the very first time development used the windows dialog editor and simple parser create similar smalltalk and dialogs top level objects windows systemdialogs and toolboxes which use the automatic layout feature various composite widgets motif and xaw userdialogs which can individually laid out with user interface builder first version such dialog editor included this distribution controls children top level objects statictext staticimage pushbutton checkbox radiobutton edit listbox combobox groupbox panearea drawing toolbar the staticimage and all the button classes can display bitmap format color gif format pictures alternative label text event handling done simple but powerful mechanism which redirects callbacks member functions objects commoninteract built upon the drawing class and provides components for building direct manipulative applications very simplified implementation some features from the commoninteract system research project our institute approach define software achitecture for implementing direct manipulative applications with multiple interaction media sound alternative input devices you are interrested look into the june issue the joop sigs publications journal object oriented programming there should our paper about commoninteract but aware that our state the art from commoninteract still undocumented and included because was used implement the dialog editor currently supports only drawing primitives lines rectangles circles but plan extend support bitmaps and some controls also known problem the drawing class has redrawing strategy always redraws the whole window even after minimal changes like selecting object this looks very ugly slow displays and should fixed about this first release still incomplete and has lot bugs but are using here for smaller applications which are running without problems think can call beta release which can used develop applications for any non critical purposes commoninteract may called pre alpha release development will continued this year because plan use for another research project here besides incompleteness and the redrawing problem seems stable and can used for experimental applications

for each primary color red green blue three colors values and this results colors representing most the standard colors for use icons two extra shades grey vales black and white red other colors

posix tty behaviour the posix config files are incomplete without those some specific platforms like suns and decs looked twice porting emu linux but stopped short becuse the tty part there cleaner version emu that supports posix tty explicitly hmm depends how you define clean jordan implemented the system dependent stuff way that you have basic implementations for call operating system types then you ahead and write include file for your specific machine operating system using the basic implementations since both jordan and haven encountered flavor yet that fully posix haven gotten around really implement and test top level include file specifically for just posix the posix routines are used the sun specific file tty sun for example but here also use some bsd stuff all all still probably better implement include file for each and every operating system than ifdef ing existing ones the type mess that can result from that can clearly seen the xterm sources even quite bit code gets copied almost unchanged couple times this only uses some disk space since only the drivers actually included from the toplevel include file will compiled into emu shouldn hard come with tty linux file that fully relies the posix stuff but unfortunately don have linux system available can the port myself would suggest you read the readme term sysdep and you have any problems questions contact

want xterm wake every half second and whack the server into doing bitblt what running emu mhz box cannot make out any difference performance whether the cursor set blinking not you think about bit cycle hell lot time for even the slowest since you would course only enable the blinking text cursor when your xterm has the input focus this application active anyway repeat blinking text cursor costs almost nothing performance just needs some thought when designing the xterm software you are stuck distributed system feedback loop what you are xterminal running xterm over the net another

which can lead more process switches depending whether each event filtered the window manager well the applications and how many processes are needed for each character while blinking cursor needs

the synchros dogs and said they were synonymous the gears are always meshed synchronized gearbox and you slip the synchro gears back and forth shifting least that what was taught explain por favour motorcycle transmissions don have synchros the engagment dogs are very corse and sloppy there are maybe teeth dogs the side the gears that engage the next gear over the forks slide the gears back and

but when does you sure glad you got safe car granted the tests aren perfect but much rather car that did well the test than car that did horribly you raise valid point but again tradeoff how much money you want spend for that kind protection you could buy volvo saab benz and get really good crash protection and other luxuries but you pay significantly more for case out the question because all those cars are beyond budget been two major auto accidents both were multiple car the worst was head three car collision intersection and one person ran stop sign both cases was stopped and had place and saw coming both times even high speed head collisions the most beneficial item you can have good old point seatbelt nowadays least the you get airbag you get point belt presumably you get added safety benefit there well that something certainly look for and which can had inexpensive cars you really want add safety any car simply add cage the car they are available and cheap about the usa add that four five six point belts and you will walk away from collisions that were otherwise not survivable but instead people spending little extra money get legislation that says the gov must mandate minimal level protection for everyone one other significant factor improving one own safety get some training this will improve your safety more than any other single investment will drive ride

harsh ride the car will virtual potpouri rattles when gets older tires goodyear eagles left hoping for probe got about out the original goodyears and had driven the replacement tires bridgestone miles when tradeed the car the firestones probe look like they designed for performance rather wide shallow tread etc they probably won last long but the car handles very very very well sticks the road like glue even rough surface interior very very nice too very pleasing the eye and ergonomically sound definitely ford mazda did very very nice job this one the car has much more expensive than actually look and feel yes this car stiff suspension isn for everyone personally like but you find little harsh but otherwise like the car strongly suggest looking into the having driven probe for years find the suspension interesting the car actually drives much better than the very firm ride and you definitely know about each and every bump the road yet the car remains very civilized even the bumpiest roads you hear and feel the bumps yet the car retains its posture very well you have passengers all means bring them along too they find that they have room the back and you find that the car rides differently that better you well wouldn encourage passenger carrying the probe unless the person the front seat likes sit with his knees the dash mentioned the consumer reports write ups consider the back seat parcel shelf biggie though had been not have bought the car but definitely not family car also there lot glass around you which wasn expecting the temperature inside the car gets pretty hot the summer must any probe from the particular sends out real blast cool air when the max that lots glass you mentioned what gives the car the very good visibility reports you see all the write ups most sports sporty cars don have that good visibility heard that the exhaust system has trouble but mine works fine haven heard about this one know that some the very early probes and maybe had problems with prematurely rusting mufflers which the complaints heard exhaust system have been the course being different engine that differeent exhaust system was one those with who qualified for the free replacement since had already replaced the muffler when received the notice was due refund from ford applied february and still waiting gave free rental car for the day and half that was without car was quite happy with the way they handled especially considering that was expecting the worst from them yes was pretty amazed when had car for some touch adjustments this past week and they had keep overnight too busy for them get and they offered pay for rental they did make pay for taxes and insurance though from what heard sounds like ford mazda had some problems with the probe and probably when they first went into production but think these problems have mostly been corrected this point that almost always expected with completely new car like this though have agree that they seem have some problesm but seriously feel the car design sound and expect very well bill heiser heiser acs edu heiser world std com boston university boston rec.autos water trunk probe article apr

better idea keep the accord until drops and buy the car always wanted corvette stingray reasoning that accord corvette less than what would spend anyway basically thinking late early for around question what are good years consider for reliability looks horsepower that order believe not horsepower not main concern want fast get motorcycle and what are good prices vettes had the same basic chassis add aluminum weaker rear axle housing all these years used same brakes similar springs etc late was bad year for reliability catastrophic converter was added cheapest corvette low end about

parts for all are readily avail swap meets and mail order etc reliability looks independant suspension wheel disk and all under and they thought miata was good deal also what would insurance look like male single might wait until get the car lower insurance would the fact that mainly drive the other car lower there some type classic car rarely driven insurance class for driving under miles per year dad has vette and its what you say classic insurance basically what that means that has restricted amount driving time which basically means cant used every day car and would probably suit your needs for limited mileage origional inquires insurance agent can drive convertable for miles less per year must keep locked garage and will cost the stated value per year does this sound right also been looking vettes recently and found convertible that like dealer currently own ford escort which insured through state farm called and asked about the rates sell the escort the vette insurance per months keep the escort the vette insurance per months the escort insurance goes down approx per months male and have good driver discount another variable would where you live best bet just call some insurance brokers and get quote state farm says they base the price the fair market value the car which determined outside apprasier they look the newspaper and call dealers find out what the going rate and adjust for the condition the car get the values above they went the selling price the car the dealer asking price need research find out this reasonable any case told state farm the value was get appraiser look the car will check serial numbers and look for origional equipe depending what mods have been done the car could worth only problems like wrong engine trans wrong paint type vetts used lacquer modification would reduce tthe value but your looking for car drive right this sounds like ball park price for small block manual air car would put closer get appraised for insurance

rec.autos review ford taurus sho review ford taurus sho gene kim background last week bought ford taurus sho moving from driving toyota celica and oldsmobile cutlass have been interested buying sho for about five months and have been combing the classifieds denver and chicago every week bought remarkably clean maroon red sho with miles for far can tell this about under blue book and still have another miles before the extended service plan runs out one should with any pre shos made sure that the car was already refit with the upgraded clutch and pressure plate well having been recalled for upgraded rotors and seatbelt attachments however sho does not have the newer rod shifter understand can get this for from any ford service center addition the car received the full tune miles receiving new platinum plugs and valve adjustment for car with miles the car was virtually immaculate the clearcoat paint job was devoid any large chips dents although the front air dam molding was covered with lots small scratches not surprising since most the miles were spent the highway having driven smaller two door coupe for long was bit concerned about whether could get used driving larger car surprise the size the car doesn bother all seems just nimble celica comparisons with oldsmobile visibility from the driver seat excellent helped mostly the small the quarter windows aft the back seat door windows and front the pillar and rear window parallel parking bit more difficult but other than that love the size fact starting appreciate the large trunk pack for hour drive washington for the summer more the ride later this review engine with anyone even slightly interested shos was very interested the valve yamaha shogun engine was not disappointed base performance the engine under rpms good you can even reasonable launches from second gear although don make practice this the engine revs smoothly and eagerly tooling around town does not require many shifts this good since the shifter definitely one the weakest points the car more this later while the performance the engine under rpms may unremarkable undergoes jekyll hyde transformation once you hit higher revs rpms butterfly valve opens and you can literally hear and feel the geometry the engine changing twelve more valves open the engine soars its rpm redline and you are treated opinion the sweetest sounding around the engine inexplicably sounds overjoyed rpm noticed that when drive around town constantly watch the tach see how far below rpm from rpm you may have punch the accelerator while torque more than adequate doesn come fully online until those other valves are used transmission when car and driver first reviewed the car they marvelled how ford had put such wimpy clutch and balky shifter into the car remember driving friend parent sho and remember thinking about whether had the leg strength drive the car traffic the clutch was that stiff that was back then the entire clutch assembly sho has been replaced under ford recall the clutch the sho feels stiffer than the one toyota celica fact the friction point seems bit larger and more forgiving when playing with the shifter with the car parked the shifter felt very reasonable the and gates were where you expect and the shifting action was smooth the road much the same but you have shift slowly make mistake clumsy shifter when hurrying shifts like when was initially trying impress friends consistently miss the shift often grope clumsily for the shift and sometimes even muff the shift find this pretty amazing car like this also took several days realize that you get the smoothest shifts when you take your time seems obvious but compared toyota and friend honda this seems atrocious and clumsy someone rec autos noted that crxs should blow shos off the line because the incredibly clumsy shifter now shift much more sedately and the shifter seems more reasonable when you play within these bounds the shifter works smoothly with surprises don know whether the rod shifter upgrade would help all along these same lines initially had trouble shifting gears smoothly again slowing down the shifts and taking more care match revs when letting out the clutch helped immensely this took several days for get the hang think some problems were because never had car with enough power balk bad shifts higher gears occasionally have trouble shifting into reverse the shifter refuses enter the gate and often grind the synchros trying get into gear watching this carefully the next couple months quirk when upshift and the engine drops back rpm hear whirring and then grinding noise coming from the the engine compartment not terribly loud but the passenger can definitely hear asked about when was looking the car all passengers apparently this definitely sho sound and the gearbox apparently called gear rollover replies queries rec autos are the end this review exterior mentioned before astounded how well the body this sho has stood paint chipping the front bumper and grille are virtually non existent looking how older tauri sometimes don age gracefully wonder what the guys ford did differently the sho bodies the body opinion extremely attractive with matching color body moldings than the stock tauri for some odd reason the sho seems different enough from vanilla tauri get stares stoplights course this could overactive imagination shos get fog lights more open grille completely monochromatic exterior and deeper ground skirt the back with sho stenciled relief seen couple shos whose owners have colored these with florescent colors black yuck don think the car flashy like that way feel almost anonymous with all those tauri out there but different and distinctive enough those who care interior the interior what really makes feel like don deserve the car the seats are grey leather the steering wheel and shifter are covered with black leather and the entire instrument panel done black grey metallic scheme the instrumentation stock taurus except for the mph speedo and rpm tach you get center console with two cupholders large compartment under the radio great for player armrest that contains yet another compartment three appropriately sized coin holders for tollways think and compartment for holding cassette tapes there map holders the doors and oddly small glove compartment spilled whole can coke the cupholder and was delighted find that the entire rubber holder can removed and washed sink hey really impressed with the ergonomics and thoughtfulness that went into its design and before the interior was upgraded the backseat bigger than any car had why they need much space smart ass comments please the driver and passenger seat have lumbar and side bolsters from what hear not uncommon for the side bolsters show wear mine exception the left side bolster the driver has cracked and not convinced the right bolster inflating all the way big surprise for forgot that shos don have normal hand parking brake instead they have the regular parking brake that you press with your left foot too bad again getting used but seems bit anachronistic ride the suspension nice and stiff too stiff stiffer than any car had friend new toyota celica seems tauter and still able soak bumps better the sho seems stiffer with less ability soak bumps driving over railroad tracks noisy and jarring affair the other hand taking turns feels wonderful because the body rigid and doesn flex all listened for that before bought the car the highway the ride great when drove the car from chicago back purdue had trouble keeping under mph let alone from trying see what mph really feels like relatively quiet ride but the sunroof rattles tried find out what exactly makes all the noise there but seems the window that rests the rails easy way get rid think over the past three days oscillated between thinking the suspension wonderful and perfect and thinking that the ride way too rough not for mind you but wonder whether would advise dad buy one for himself but discovered with the shifter you take your time with shifts you have reason complain let explain the ride worst when turning and applying lots power the wheels feel the wheels scrabbling for traction and torque steer making the car skitter left and right after understood this avoid the limits traction and happy camper again not body rigidity but the composure the car matching the suspension the steering feel quite heavy first impression driving sho was how hard you had turn the wheel highway speeds tracks straight arrow but when driving around parking lot the high effort steering didn seem useful however reasonable but doesn communicate the road the driver well ford probe imho much better than the steering celica wonder how bad this car during winter miscellaneous notes gripes the rattles from the sunroof intermittent some days rattles loudly other days look wondering where all the noise went activating the sunroof sometimes very noisy loud squealing retracts its rails wonder there quick fix for this again other days completely disappears function humidity once made the connection between the sometimes awful feeling suspension and torque steer never complained about ride wish the seats had more support under the thighs also wish the side bolsters would close more tightly hear that tires for this car can get really expensive currently have goodyear that cost the previous owner for four used hate the ford stereo systems whose idea was use volume paddle now amazement don really mind and sometimes think okay idea pretty ridiculous though getting rpm sometimes seems chore but this big deal there more than enough torque down low often goof the shifting when driving with friends took couple days before could really shift smoothly from gear hard believe isn car has almost miles parents noted that almost impossible find low mileage sho astute observation imho wonder how long can make sho last just bought book titled drive forever for tips this department the goofy parking brake pedal still throws for loop once parked the car gear and then accidentally let out the clutch after started the car jolted forward and bounced off the car front paint damage all but starting the car whole new ritual for with that fangled pedal also began wonder how strong that brake really today backed out parking spot today and started drive away before noticed the glowing brake light oops the driver power window creaks when closed all the way the same thing happens parents mercury sable oddly all the other windows work smoothly likes liking the interior amenities more and more each day the cupholders are great didn expect use the keyless entry buttons much but really handy you can lock all the doors pressing the and buttons together neat and you can never lock yourself out the car really feel like don deserve this car really can believe that could afford got this car ten years ahead schedule love this car much that been telling parents look into buying one love this car much that wrote this file meant write couple lines and ended with this there were powers survey for used car owners would have opportunity express incredible satisfaction owning this car don like thinking about getting another car but this point time sure buy another sho for under you can beat next time with airbag and abs though insurance wise this car also big win pay the same premiums toyota celica despite that has nearly twice the horsepower other odds and ends much amazement there sho

today paid visit old friend whose love for audis has been overwhelming that makes not too sucessful living selling them without further delay will get the audi servotronic steering for those who are not familiar with what servotronic the name for the speed variable power steering manufactured and used audis and bmws have been outspoken damming servotronic over the past couple months and this was based magazine reviews and drives the audi quattro and the audi fwd quite happy report now that the the servotronic inoffensive suppose that due the fat gumball tires the servotronic has been loaded more and this far has been the best implementation that have tried far from perfect mind you and much happier was option that could refuse but the longer consider this bad enough where feel the entire car ruined the steering still tad too light but accurate and suppose the stiffly sprung chassis sends back much information that some makes through the driver hands there feel and there accuracy the steering but there also room for improvement consider the steering better than the japanese competition primarily because the japanese not believe feel and engineer out completely engine wheee what pressure cooker with just miles the clock did not expect the producing anywhere close what will putting out miles later but still the car packs terrific punch for turbocharged machine very unusual that encourages lazy driving low revs high gear supremely flexible that one could hardly believe that there only liters displacement move this pound car around such fashion with maximum torque available rpm and rpm redline the car can pretty much left third all day which translates speed range something like mph chracteristic that one normally associates with large capacity the technical achievement breadthtaking throttle response right there with good atmospheric engine fact would even put peaky multivalve engines shame downshifts are almost unnecessary more fun use the overboost feature than rev the engine for those not familiar the engine features seconds additional turbo boost for passing sort like lighting the after burners jet fighter one could with the right foot only third gear blast the car from just few moments simply flooring the gas far the numbers maximum torque available overboost mode shoots about incredible for liter takes few moments for develop overboost but well worth waiting for since this quite heavy car one body parts are not flung around like say the corrado the acceleration smooth and strong somewhat similar riding jetliner accelerates down the runway takeoff also one treated very distinctive and entertaining whistle from the turbo the only entertaining sound come out very refined but bland sounding banger yes audi has refined the the point where rpm sounds serene does the smoothness outstanding but not quite the standards very good valve bmw say that terms refinement willingness rev smoothness lack harshness under full acceleration better than many however lost the refinement process the characteristic cylinder bark that made the older engines characterful not terribly refined the valve turbo sounds pretty bland except for the whistle under full boost subjectively rate the engine being far more musical than the turbo also audi own also far more musical with rorty race car growl when pressed though none these can match its grunt the only hint the engine true capacity occurs when one taking off from rest after the turbo has come near stop with the extra inertia from the permanently engaged system one has somewhat delicate feeding the clutch prevent embarassing stall alternately one could use more revs both cases very small price pay for such fantastic engine think that audi america should offer automatic option for this car just they offer though extremely small numbers speed for the much peakier the characteristics the engine are perfect for automatic ironically europe slush available but none offered for the land the slush marketing twits rearing their ugly heads again chassis noticed that audis tend have very wide wheels and relatively modest tire widths the car comes with firestones size which not uncommon all however the very attractive spoke wheels are less than inches wide there sidewall bulge whatsoever combined with the flared wheel arches the has mouth watering macho yet subdued look rough concrete becomes immediately clear that the new body style has made significant advances structural rigidity well road noise suppression suppose the two are inter related but digress use cliche the body feels like has been carved out stone flex totally undetectable even when going over rough roads with super rigid body like this stiff springs and stiff dampers not cause excessive harshness and while the ride quality will never worry lexus will also not draw comparisons trucks pony cars the servotronic steering has already been mentioned consider inoffensive because did not inhibit spirited cornering was able test the car cornering powers without too much trepidation think new concept work this car with its fat gumball tires talking about understeer oversteer practically meaningless banked highway ramp went slow and started applying power went around could feel the forces build the point where the skin face was being tugged sideways yet the car was totally and completely obedient throttle and steering inputs felt that the limits were not even close being approached the forces were thrilling but the entire affair going around curve strangely uninvolving you tell the car what you want and does end story think that starting relate more and more those reviewers who were highly impressed the honda nsx clinical efficiency but were unable fall love with the car the brakes have very good firmness them and stop the car pretty well too though read that they are prone fade not too surprised since the does not have uprated brakes over the base audi fwd harder pads would help but that turn would lead more wooden response when cold starting see trend among the luxury sports sedan makers where extra weight not being offset additional braking capacity the fade performance nothing brag about neither the the legend brake fade these days seem forgotten virtue when everybody attention focused anti lock capability comfort for car with such sporty abilities its comfort levels are also excellent the cabin beautifully appointed with carbon fiber panel inserts place the wood trim the all the expected gizmos are there heated seats power seats seat memory power this and that the glaring ommision was the trip computer which was removed because audi hasn gotten work reliably yet that means that the car has boost gauge real disappointment taking into account how much the turbo dominates its performance unusual for the germans the comes with honda style moonroof well the very intelligent dial sunroof position rotary switch noise levels including engine and tire noise low that wouldn consider the lexus advantage this area significant enough sway potential buyer conclusion even though few will able afford audi its sticker price the car bargain one takes into account what has offer over the competition the valve turbo real gem even doesn produce ferrari sounds other luxury sports sedan maker offers the utter security quattro all wheel drive which some worth the extra money all itself the safety features are also top notch side impact standard compliant the very elegant automatic seat belt tensioners and the dual airbags the series audis have been

their relative strength one another even they are reflections the same source sounds like your analysis based hypothesis and not actually using the valentine like give some feedback based real life experince keep the valentine advanced logic mode and rarely lights christmas tree the only time does when the middle major shopping area and then makes sense that does since there are sources coming from many different directions have found the valentine consistent its reporting bogeys regardless any moving cars the area have found the directional indication very useful one case there was two radar traps set within one mile each other passed the first radar trap the direction indication changed then the detector was set off again pointing the forward direction with other radar detectors would have assumed that this was due reflection but with the valentine knew there was high probability that there was another trap and there was other occasions the directional helped discern false alarm from true alarm for example pass source the direction indicator changes the directional also allows focus attention where the signal might coming from instead having look all over the place when car approaching from the rear with detector that leaks can tell that the signal coming from the rear and the car passes can verify the source with other detectors would have been unable this and would

housing whereas the newer models have independant front suspension the solid axle theoretically stronger and the new cruisers not have independent suspension the front they still run straight axle but with coils the runner the one with independent front the cruisers have incredible wheel travel with this system more reliable than the newer model but only experience will tell the independant front suspension doubt compromise made satisfy the typical user who will never need real utility vehicle the second difference the type transfer case used the newer models not sure but think tioyota went

viper car alarms article cdo uiuc edu uiuc edu ronald garnett writes hello auto enthusiasts recently had more car mangled broken into and decided get alarm installed viper and has shock sensor sensors for each door ignition cutoff and automatic door locks have this same alarm installed syclone works great the shock sensor very sensitive but much more practical than the motion sensor have other car doesn trigger the car rocked gently the wind but any kind shock sets off even kicking the tire sets off works great what worries the hood and hatch someone could pry them gently enough then they could bypass the alarm the shock sensor adjustable and there are two cycles you can adjust sensitive enough that there way you could open the hood without setting off the alarm although know that you cannot pop the hood the syclone without setting off alarm now and yet have had zero none false alarms with this system the alarm tells you when you disarm whether has been activated your absence have been able trace every alarm cause and was not false alarm also wondering how easy would for thief crawl underneath the car and cut the battery cable disable the alarm guess would possible depending the vehicle syclone tight the engine compartment that would tough this there are supplemental power supplies you can put with this viper alarm but don have one really think that someone wants car that bad the alarm won keep them from even with supplemental power supply viper also sells some fancy field disturbance sensor that supposedly detects people approcahing the car this primarily for convertibles have convertible and have looked this feature detail alpine actually makes better radar unit you want get one these has zones that can shut down independently that one side your car has pedestrian traffic something else that would trigger alarm shuts down the zone rather pulls tighter don see the real benefit these unless you have convertible that you leave the top down avoid the voice alarm that can added the radar package talks people they walk saw one installed lotus esprit the kids would taunt seeing how close they could get before warned them get back the owner finally disabled which defeats the purpose mind interested the opinions you netters about these problems and about the viper general real happy with viper one other feature really like you can tune your preferences you can have arm passively not you can disable the chirp for arming disarming you can have lock unlock the doors when the alarm armed disarmed like these features hate the chirp when the alarm arms disarms mine flashes the lights only like the door lock feature although have careful take keys with because doesn know you have left your keys the car when passively arms and locks the doors but you are meticulous about taking your keys with you takes care the rest the car ford probe that used great shape ron garnett looked seriously the alpine system too real nice system but more money and has motion sensor standard instead the shock sensor the shock sensor better and the viper shock sensor better cycle than the optional alpine one imho think the viper gives you lot good value for the money

have bought the car but definitely not family car true heard that the exhaust system has trouble but mine works fine haven heard about this one know that some the very early probes and maybe had

feeding not mechanic broke case the dealer welded ordered replacement parts and put them when they got them suspect this some sort design flaw production flaw any case have earlier model and would expect worked out newer ones any case warrantee repair they get the keys back from what heard sounds like ford mazda had some problems with the probe and probably when they first went into production but think these problems have mostly been corrected this point that almost always expected with completely new car like this though have agree that they seem have some problesm but seriously feel the

side tail section get access this area good luck but was clogged wouldn this interfere with engine operation all the time when runs runs well good point did not catch this the original post the only other things which come mind since this gravity feed fuel system this the fuel petcock valve vacuum controlled from the carburator let suppose there small hole bad seal either the hose itself the vacuum valve the fuel petcock when cold the hole open enough open the valve just enough allow gas the carbs with the choke since the choke creates more low pressure the carbs when draw gas and the engine and surrounding area warm the hole seals one way check fuel flow through the valve would pull the side panels off and remove the fuel hose the carbs connect tube the correct size preferably clear tubing observe fuel flow the output side the fuel petcock remove the control hose from carburator make sure the tank full place the valve the position and apply vacuum the control hose preferably with vacuum device with gauge check for air leaks with vacuum applied fuel should flow freely see there vent problem this with the fuel filler cap open and closed flows lot faster with the filler cap open then there may something the vent airway which changes position and depending the position may clog partially clog the vent have heard some fuel tanks being replaced fix this problem the things which might defective are the control hose from carb the petcock valve and possibly the fuel tank vent now all the above shows problem fuel flow when cold then there something the carbs screwed but there are many things check would typing all day list them all here are few with everything back together apply vacuum the petcock valve and open the drain holes the carbs one one check fuel flow open the airbox and check for foreign debris clogged airways the carbs there are quite few each carb hope something flushed out with all this trouble shooting american honda does not resolve

anyway this really the only thing disagree maybe should agree disagree but right the official line here though have doubts about that the front brake applied first followed the rear brake the idea being that you avoid locking the rear after weight transfer takes place that the official line taught those rider education classes you were refering that also don teach countersteering have question the quality the classes the official line msf curricula described maximum braking achieved applying both brakes equally when the weight distribution nominally even and both tires have equal normal forces and easing off the rear prevent locking and increasing braking the front more traction available the front due increased normal force due weight shift the official line you have been taught seems ineffective the face applying the rear brake after the front not taking advantage all the traction available the rear time and halving the available braking power using only the front time saying brake until the tire just begins slide next useless advice newbie has out and slide the tire find out where that also gives him zero information from which develop braking technique that changes the braking and corresponding weight shift develop you don slide the tyre you have way knowing whether you achieved maximum braking not not suggesting that you should always aim brake hard you possibly can but you want find the limits the machine you have beyond them not necessarily true chirping the tire indicates impending lockup most surfaces and serves good guide newbies indicate maximum braking agree that totally locking the front occasionally makes one better rider but manuver best saved for experienced rider unless you have one those outrigger bikes like code used use any case for maximum braking suggested you aim keep both wheels just the point sliding then you doing exactly you suggest true but from the point view how best teach riding skills which how this

scary fast acceleration because holding onto something and leaning forward remember this turns have her lean forward and the same angle you normally this means she isn leaning all very disconcerting leaned over and have your passenger leaning that they sitting straight much balance lost and this can dangerous slowing and stopping much slower than usual again tough for the rider judge how scary fast deceleration because holding onto something and leaning forward however you figure out fast because braking too fast will shove the passenger forward into you which shoves you into the tank inopportune location generally have the passenger keep her knees against you and the bike not out wide this helps balance and gives her somegrip when you passenger fear she will squeeze her knees against you normally this means slow down and now turning she leans with but what else are there traditional signals for slow down faster hafta pee etc only have couple signals slow down her either tapping the back slapping helmet with all her might depends the urgency the matter turn here done her pointing the direction exit this also the sign for cool look that hafta pee the same sign turn

look over shoulder the direction turning she leans with but what else are there traditional the ninja has adjustable suspension adjust stiffer setting you don bottom out bumpy curves tell her the cardinal rules are never ever ever ever put her feet down not when you stop stop sign not when she thinks you gonna crash never keep them the pegs until you tell her get off the bike she hold onto your waist she should hold tightly enough that she won slide off the bike you twist the throttle bit and added bonus for you here she should keep close your butt possible quick stops don make her slide into you and knock your balls onto the gas tank you decide how best word this just stay perpendicular the bike straight the seat don lean your body into curves just with the bike and stay perpendicular don look over your shoulder remember all times that you have passenger the back that means don pop the clutch and try corner and stop smoother than usual aware that you jump the brake you going have the equivalent dead weight crashing into you from behind prepared for that make sure she pisses before the ride even she says she doesn have anti women stuff here have tiny bladder myself remind her look around while you riding point things interest makes the ride more enjoyable her she won get focused just looking the back your helmet and gives her ample excuse squeeze you show she saw what you pointed wife and tried the msf recommended look over the rider shoulder curves bit and just didn work the timing her weight shift was unpredictable especially the maxim because unlike

that takes all the sense out the game your line reasoning guy hits into double play with one out and the bases loaded there point saying that that was bad thing his team won anyway speculating what might have happened things had gone otherwise the double play merely event that happened the course game that was eventually won lost for unknown reasons after all any speculation involves constructing fantasy about what would have happened but didn roger you ever worry that the next pencil you drop will fall the ceiling instead are you willing consider empirical evidence teams the post

must agree that winning games useful intermediate goal towards winning the division and our disagreements come when consider how win games your viewpoint expressed winning games happens for reasons that cannot analyzed while many are thinking things like base runners are good outs are bad and therefore walks are better than double plays with the bases loaded you are thinking things like team game perhaps the double play will cause some mysterious team dynamics that will cause the team win today the result that becomes impossible say anything about individual players perhaps atlanta would have won the series with playing left field after all perhaps some way knowledge and personality would have helped the team more than complete lack skill would have hurt therefore could extremely

runs and prevent one opponent from scoring runs are scored while team batting and inning ends after the third out would seem that making outs bad while hitting home runs good players have tendencies

time hirschbeck was determined show gant exactly who was charge this game gant wasn dawdling hadn had chance dawdle and hirschbeck was simply exercising power play gant resisted many might what

pennent race august however would take back few moves the jim abbott trade think abbott not only inspirational person but great pitcher also could win the young this year but won because the right side the yanks infield isn good enough why was this not good trade snow how many rookies have been able step and immediately have the impact that has had far the angels know early but you seen this kid hit field talk you can just tell that going tremendous player the yanks should have kept him what about mattingly you ask well great that the yanks have taken care him and remained loyal but years older than snow and just doesn have the same bat speed before his back injury shame but yankee fan who wants see the best yankee team take snow over mattingly first the yanks also gave two promising propects with snow for abbott besides with domingo jean brien taylor wickman militello and sterling hitchcock they are just loaded with propects know abbotts only but this was too much give believe george forced this trade because believes and right that abbott will big hit however like see the yankees build baseball team not amusement show wade boggs live boston and like wade lot but his career winding down and would rather see the yanks start develop long term solution hensley muelins russ davis velarde besides wade just doesn have any range what shame about charlie hayes huh spike owen see wade boggs much rather see them develop dave silvestri whoever wade and spike next each other the infield going raise the yankee staff era point and these guys are the down sides their careers danny tartabull yes put some tremendous numbers and nice think about what could were ever healthy all year but never should expect games max out him meanwhile gerald williams playing columbus and paul neil playing left field believe neil led outfielders assists last year and tartabull poor defensive outfielder what basically getting the yanks are moving the right direction but are not ready win pennent this year they should the level planning for world series this means getting the younger players experience the majors now they will ready year two afraid that all this stuff wreaks george steinbrenner certainly the boggs deal was all george looks like george planning the right mix veterans and young players win world series now the veterans are always available and can added any time like boston did this year develop the young players first then add the one two veterans the yankees case just keep them let all yankee fans hope that george doesn dismantle the terrific job stick and company have done building the yankee organization back into one respect really afraid that will trade whoever takes patch holes today relief pitching for example george must realize that the yankees

the umpire judgment interferes with the field taking the throw first base the key word the rule and runner isn out just for running out the baseline out for interfering with the fielding the ball throw fielding the throw first because the catcher opted throw the ball over the batter runner head there inter ference what your definition interfering with the fielder taking the throw the rule book certainly doesn have definiton clarification possible interpret the rule saying that the catcher has alter his throw avoid hitting the batter runner then again have interference you know seems that there way apply this rule justly the catcher the pitcher say rob dibble for example throws toward first and hits the runner running inside the baseline the fielder takes the chance being ejected

simply take the number earned runs divided the innings pitched and then multiple the result era earned run run that given the pitcher that not attributed fielding error more specifically error occurs that represented the third out all runs scored after the error are considered unearned runs earned runs are also runs scored result players who were left base when the pitcher exited the game here are some examples there are two outs inning and there are men base error occurs that represents the third out all the runs after this error and not counted earned runs pitcher issues some base balls walks

pitcher can believe that morris performance the playoffs and series had large positive impact the jays performance know very trendy nowadays dump morris but let give credit where credit due doubtful that the blue jays would have won the east without morris well when you say without morris you have mention assumed replacement the alternative morris was letting cito gaston soft toss the ball underhand the opposition every days then course the blue jays wouldn have won without morris the alternative was replacement level then think would been very close and yes morris might made the difference the alternative was frank viola the blue jays probably would have won more easily with viola last year when the team went for the month august and all the other starters were being shelled and milwaukee was making charge morris went with pretty good era can remember exactly yes you can make the argument that the his presence prevented the team from collapsing august also let not underestimate the importance his innings save the bullpen every fifth day didn help win the east forget about the pennent and the world series those innings were probably helpful his run support was high runs but was stottlemyer runs and won only games remember morris winning inordinate number and ballgames but this his credit pitched only good needed when was ballgame just put cruise control and threw the ball there and let the batters get themseleves out hate this expression inexperienced pitcher would wear himself out trying make perfect pitches keep his era down but morris being veteran pitcher knows that winning the only thing that really matters baseball saving himself was able reach back for that little extra hate this too when the game was the line well think complete what happened most the time that morris fell behind and the team came back and rescued him mostly this because lousy inning pitcher and much better the rest the way that the team can climb out holes consistently and win them not morris credit the team credit furthermore while morris did exceed the percentage that would projected from his runs allowed and run support hasn done this previous years fact his record lot worse than what projects with run support and runs allowed you think just came with this ability look the postseason games pitched decently typical morris games morris gets behind team rescues him not responsible for that rescue and both those games the team just didn rescue him enough jack morris pitched well did during much the season those games the offense just didn earn him victory btw think should put the bullpen would embarrassing veteran pitcher which cito would never but his era how much more can embarrassed morris one those guys who will reture when can start anymore too bad first inning pitcher serve the bullpen greg rec.sport.baseball jack morris did anyone happen see peter gammons espn last night addressed this exact issue and dismissed rather quickly

through the braves system and then the braves put him through position changes the space year adequate although not great and least some your perception his fielding colored watching him learn play

for arm there are second chances even when playing sandlot softball granted still put best overall infielder but that because gets more chances not because the job harder still amazes that many teams have tried convert other position players but maybe that because the supply natural scarce finally gant player who puts pressure himself perform well and works hard improve you don get those amazingly huge arms that relatively small body without lot weight work now whether been overdoing these days may valid question the question whether tries too hard make something happen during each bat but frankly player going not live potential much rather they fail trying too hard than not trying hard enough you might able teach relaxation adult but that age don believe you can teach hustle all that

analysis that proves the existence clutch hitting compelling testimony that samuel would have gotten base hit sure there something wrong with the sample size that the basic assumption that clutch

statistic able predict player performance the future for there correlation from year year player batting average correlated fairly well from year year player ability walk infielder defensive average are correlated better that say given their past performance those statistics can have pretty good handle how they next year put some simple information about aging and you can even better one the basic problems with something like clutch batting average overall batting average that the correlation from year year almost zero adding the sample size doesn seem help much counterexample what you showed consider the following two players from non clutch clutch maldonado lemon you had had these two players your logic those clutch situations you bat maldonado for lemon blink eye well maldonado hit non clutch and clutch while lemon hit non clutch and clutch before you accuse completely cooking the data there were players who had clutch bats every year from according elias simple measure clutchness let just look clutch non clutch you use predict for those players you find that the were below league average that measure both and were above league average both periods and the other were above one and below the other you were just flipping coins you expect get above below both and that switched the difference between the observed results and the coin flip experiment not statisically significant btw correlating players overall batting average from with gives correlation coefficient which significant something better than the confidence level correlating their clutch non clutch for the same period gives correlation significant level any interest everyone would agree hope that grand slam the bottom the ninth when your team down three very clutch hit there just way predict who

way obp can below does this seem dumb anyone else the fact not the comment why should batter obp hurt sac fly especially sac bunts don have the same effect since they the same thing but sac flies usually score run while bunts just advance base but both these situations involve the batter giving for the benefit the team sacrifice why should hurt their stats the sac bunt purposeful act ordered the manager the batter does not trying get sac fly and the evidence available indicates that there such ability players can will themselves hit sac flies they fly out the same place just often when there nobody third greg sorry gotta disagree here last time played ball went several occasions intending hit fly ball deep enough score the runner from third advance runner third relatively easy actually you swing under the path the ball you normally would hit good line drive with fastballs very easy much more difficult with good breaking balls good hitter with excellent bat control can voluntarily hit fly balls the outfield least the time you haven been facing major league pitching maybe more you have good the plate and most those guys are just likely opt for getting the base hit and helping their average getting the sacrifice the best example know jerry willard the series against minnesota all had was put one the and the game was over swung waaaaaay past parallel and accomplished barely getting the run safely stats did little study the scoreboard book entitled can you hit sacrifice flies purpose summary the findings over the year period sac fly type fly balls were produced percent the time situations where sac fly was useful and percent the time when sac fly wasn useful they looked the leaders sac flies and found that the leaders sac flies other words the guys you would expect good hit sac fly type fly balls only more often when they needed difference way too small the result skill essentially the players who hit lot sac flies seem because they hit hit sac fly type flies often with and without runner third stats concludes appears conclusive that hitters cannot hit sacrifice flies purpose even they practice the batting cage greg rec.sport.baseball how

basically says that you measure fielder how many balls gets but subject all kinds bias and almost completely useless for first basemen from the raw stats there way tell which first baseman putouts were made throws from other fielders and which were made his own plays likewise you can tell whether double play was fielding runs thus gives first baseman credit for putouts double plays only for assists and errors thus favors first basemen who play deep reaching lot balls but forcing the pitcher cover first more frequently also hurts first baseman who play behind left handed pitching staffs and thus face few left handed batters better method but newer and based ondata that has only been collected over the last few years measures the percentage balls hit into the part the field the guy responsible for this better course still isn all first baseman defense some references mattingly defensive rating stats method from mike gimbel baseball player and team ratings defensive average which

they also meant there was such thing any kind clutch performance given their comments this certainly not the case there significant ability toi perform the clutch but clutch performance certainly happens every time there game winning hit the clutch pitching quoted above something which happened not claim that any particular player should expected clutch pitcher over the past four seasons sabo has had hits abs defined clutch situations the scouting report for average over that same period had another abs with hits for average according the rest the sdcn any differential such this completely and totally random and cannot used for any reasonable inference such perhaps perez should have used pinch hitter that situation simple statistics tell that there chance average clutch hitter would have this large split the average decrease points standard deviation about there will such hitters any league just there will hitters who hit poorly tuesdays and there only very weak correlation best study between clutch hitting the last four years and clutch hitting this year probably because most the clutch data determinaed luck rather than any ability based only this data don see any reason pinch hit for sabo any other player who had been poor clutch hitter the past but there are many other factors involved decision pinch hit does the pinch hitter give you platoon advantage any portion sabo clutch split that results from his platoon split certainly real ability even has nothing with clutch hitting you have singles hitter the plate when you need home run you have curveball pitcher

place put aging veterans another use the slot help player come back from injury slowly getting his bat the lineup without forcing him play the field would expect such players hit worse than they did during the rest the season third factor that most player who split time between and first the outfield don hit well for some reason reggie jackson was good example five years for the angels hit like the old reggie when was right the second and third factors will lost players are considered their primary position only player who plays games right and will count only the right fielders averages logical starting place would look defensive replacement value you can find for something can assume that forced play defense they would play true zero value even though doubt this actually true for players like winfield and molitor this would let discount the time they spend playing because that forces the team find another real fielder play this makes sense you might also look another way

can define the skill hitting baseball that all said except used the smaller sample batting average clutch situations and elsewhere this thread sherri nichols repeats her position that batting average clutch situations meaningless statistic for predicting the future has been entirely meaningless least has meaning don know how find did not say could predict the future suggested that the statistic not necessarily meaningless here the data for this situation non clutch clutch sabo samuel you were have been the reds manager that time assume you would have had some basis for letting sabo hit rather than pinch hitting samuel sure some that basis would have utilized prior performance you just wouldn have used this particular aspect prior performance this not correct try avoid being insulting but difficult when you cavalierly dismiss hundreds hours work with don pretend understand but nobody denying that there are people who have hit well the clutch the past but challenge you find method predict who will hit well the clutch the future which after all what you are claiming you can since one more time did not claim able predict the future said that accept the above data indication that samuel would have had better chance for success that situation than sabo and not dismissing your work stating opinion you are saying that your work renders any opinion the contrary

was think have pretty good idea what kind batting average can produce hit not surprising huh also non clutch clutch this doesn prove any overall statistical trend that can used predict future

non clutch clutch sabo samuel sabo clearly better hitter than samuel yet you would pinch hit samuel because you predict that samuel will clutch hitter and sabo will choke hitter right call that predicting the future you were have been the reds manager that time assume you would have had some basis for letting sabo hit rather than pinch hitting samuel sure some that basis would have utilized prior performance you just wouldn have used this particular aspect prior performance this not correct right would have used aspects prior performance which have been shown consistent the past overall performance splits even matching hitting pitching styles all these will give some advantage used properly even all else were equal there would advantage gained looking past clutch performance and this case everything else pointed sabo one more time did not claim able predict the future said that accept the above data indication that samuel would have had better chance for success that situation than sabo that comes down the same thing when perez left sabo was predicting the future the next was predicting that sabo was more likely get hit than samuel supporting the swap you are predicting the opposite and not dismissing your work stating opinion you are saying that your work renders any opinion the contrary invalid that the retention that opinion some kind insult your work well yes you are aware its existance you claim incapable understanding though suspect you are simply unwilling yet you rather forcefully state the opposite you don seem think the work worth reading yet you obviously feel the topic important say this insulting did not say that consistent skill have said that indicator performance under certain set circumstances right this the beef has not proven indicator future performance under any circumstances least none that been able come with you know some where indicator future performance please let your secret nice however see that you will consider the possibility that you actually could have some preconceived biases most certainly have repeatedly stated you can come with study which even hints consistent clutch ability would love however the straightforward attempts such study have all failed miserably yeah hindsight always doesn that make you bright this stupid argument and you know knew could get the name calling and there that word you like much well was stupid argument are you honestly debating that sure know sabo didn get hit have idea whether samuel would have done any better not one most certainly doesn prove anything believe that season end that chris sabo batting average clutch situations will significantly lower than his batting average non clutch situations can prove that will happen guess just have wait and see this simply prediction for chris sabo for this year this prediction for all batters who have over the past few years hit xxx amount worse the clutch than overall you mean the first then you say just have wait and see but the second much stronger statement fact suggests rule can then test this rule past data see worked for recent years think you will agree that the rule didn work last year the year before that unlikely any better this year right here another one for you joe carter batting average clutch situations was significantly below his batting average non clutch situations each year presume you think this random not going get into case analysis sure you can find somebody who hit poorly from and then hit poorly well you can also find those who hit poorly from and then hit well this doesn prove any overall statistical trend that can used predict future performance across the breadth major league ballplayers just makes think that joe carter batting average the clutch not going high his non clutch situations gambler fallacy unless there reason expect consistency run proves nothing can you give reason expect clutch correlate from one year the next seen detailed study why shouldn expect correlate

clutch the axis being the number players certainly there would some players the extreme ends the bell right most definitely supposition that were find the same players consistently year after year one end the bell the other then might able make some reasonable conclusions about those players opposed all baseball players this may the root the confusion please consider the following hypothetical with open mind note that not yet saying that has anything with the question hand suppose have simplified lotto game you pick number from and win that number drawn suppose have large population people who play this game every week the first year the game approximately the population will win more times the second year the game those time winners will again time winners the third year the game those who won more times each the first two years will win again suppose started with people population after three years have people who have consistently each the last three years won more the number times expected expect them big winners the fourth year the game because know there skill involved nothing about these consistent winners can influence their chances winning but suppose don know whether not there chance that skill might involved perhaps some the people our population are psychic something how would test this hypothesis can look for correlations the population now most the population will show zero correlation but our psychics should show high positive correlation even they aren very good psychics they should still manage win more times most years net result small positive correlation over the entire population this probably brings the heart the disagreement having with others this topic must any conclusion based statistical history able applied broadly throughout data base before has any validity impossible irrational apply statistical analysis selected components the data base well zero correlation zero correlation you mention that sabo has hit poorly the clutch over the last years but look the past find that clutch patterns are just likely reverse they are remain consistent the length the streak doesn seem make difference the probability that the player will clutch choke the next year there any reason expect this streak different from past streaks now were true that all three year streaks remained true form then might have something useful but then wouldn have zero correlation instead have all three year streaks remain true form and all three year streaks reverse you look those numbers and say three year choke streak implies more likely choke this year but would equally valid look those numbers and say three year choke streak implies more likely clutch this year since the probabilities are split each way completely accept that reasoning again what were find the same individuals each end the spectrum consistent basis then would have something useful and would also have positive correlation but for every individual that exhibits such pattern and holds true there another who exhibits such pattern and then reverses cheers valentine rec.sport.baseball teams organisms stats stats was jack morris note not posting this part argument with roger meynard but independent sort thread actually quote some things that roger meynard wrote but might better think this sampling his post the hip hop sense because fits with what want say maynard ramsey laurentian roger maynard writes but the point that the only decision making pro cess used determine the best the score the game and lates the teams not the individual players there method inherent baseball comparing individual performances and that how should because after all baseball team game there interesting parallel between this way viewing baseball team and some people conception biological organism the biology context would very likely read fitness for the score the game and organisms for teams how interpret players trickier but either organs genes might seem reasonable choices depending what point were trying make genes interpretation actually might really interesting this case but that would different and probably longer post however take the organ view then our knowledge biology should make pause before start saying things like species more fit than species because better organ given what know about the interdependence organs would often suspicious such claims but note that this type argument quite often made when you map species onto humans and organ onto brain the other hand some statements this kind seem more reasonable than others far can test them brain above might more reasonable than pancreas assuming gross pathology particularly species primate even when you make such statements you should concerned with the functioning the whole organism and the possibility that one organ might more crucial for one species and second organ another not mention the possibility that organ particularly crucial some third species however are non vitalists with any kind reductionsit streak will want say that organism not some completely magical unanalyzable whole but intriguing process made various subprocesses that interact ways that are potentially observable some these processes might localized particular organs while others may distributed across multiple organs way this just like baseball team except that think pretty clear that the processes and interactions involved baseball are much simpler and less numerous than most organisms say that one player better than another able say solutely that player team would have played better with player their lineup sheer speculation impossible ascertain one thing that quite difficult about baseball that perfectly controlled experiments are sometimes very tough but course this has never stopped researchers from doing the best they can and sometimes deriving very powerful conclusions even the absence certainty most this goes far beyond sheer speculation but even sheer speculation can motivate further interesting research you want select group statistics and claim that clemens has done better than another pitcher with those statistics criteria then fine this cases seeing the word statistics means summary observed events where the events themselves can viewed the output some process and possibly inputs for other processes thus have any valid notion how the processes are put together into the functioning organism data the form statistics might give basis test particular hypotheses but you have able prove that those statistics measure the individual contribution winning the because that the only measure best that has any meaning the context baseball this statement brings back the concept fitness again fitness defined terms both organism and its environment you might fit one situation and not another moving baseball clear that each team spends the entire season environment including all the other teams the league least nominal sense the division winners are the fittest teams the league that they average had better fitness scores than any their competing opponennts but real sense there fairly large random component the performance each team that difficult not impossible account for terms factors intrinsic interesting for baseball the same true biology but here also direct biological equivalent the world series basebal the world series the random component may greatly magnified the small number games that are played and both teams suddenly experience huge changes from the environement where they were originally successful might fun watch but unclear what all really means now just one more related point have yet see that any you can predict winner with any greater accuracy than jeanne dixon the other hand you have seen some who can predict the outcome the divisional races better than random assignment teams finishes and maybe some who can this better than the other participants this forum regular basis but this probably only due the fact that game schedule gives you little hope that bad hops aren the only difference between the winners and the losers moreover you had the opportunity see some analysis the world series situation that makes the strong claim that nobody can predict the winner with reliably greater accuracy than coin biased only reflect the well known home road effect winning percentage the stats are nice hobby and that about there new knowledge being produced since stats are summaries events true that you know the events you can derive the stats but somebody trying understand the process behind the stats then the stats

maybe sees his sports shrink tuesday mornings has his vitamin shots monday nights but this something that true one guy only doesn mean that there will meaningful correlation for the entire league days the week nor that there should but doesn mean can make predictions based that for that particular player believe that season end that chris sabo batting average clutch situations will significantly lower than his batting average non clutch situations can prove that will happen guess just have wait and see this simply prediction for chris sabo for this year this prediction for all batters who have over the past few years hit xxx amount worse the clutch than overall only see prediction for one player here don see anything about all batters here another one for you joe carter batting average clutch situations was significantly below his batting average non clutch situations each year presume you think this random not going get into case analysis sure you can find somebody who hit poorly from and then hit poorly well you can also find those who hit poorly from and then hit well that exactly what mark trying though find hitters that have these correlation and ask whether can make predictions for these hitters based their past performance major league ballplayers just makes think that joe carter batting average the clutch not going high his non clutch situations gambler fallacy unless there reason expect consistency huh what does gambler fallacy have with anything whether you can know the reason for correlation not you can deny that has existent you can only make argument that you don think likely continue exist because you can see reason for exist run proves nothing can you give reason expect clutch correlate from one year the next seen detailed study someone posted recently why negative clutch would correlate the argument along the lines star player with splits will always see adverse condition late innings close game opposing manager will always bring pitcher

qualify save pitcher cannot pitch more than three innings and the potential tying run must least appear the deck circle also the lead pitcher enters with cannot excede three runs this phenomenon known around work ready fire aim astounded the number times people post strong opinions about things they not only don understand but publicly admit not understanding fact there plausible argument that saves are more rational stat than wins for the record there are two ways that reliever can get save must finish the game and either have entered the game with the tying run base bat deck have pitched least three innings effectively pitcher may not get win and save the same game believe that the official scorers must assert more their authority determining winners savers etc for instance pitcher can come the ninth with lead blow the lead fall behind have his team come back the next half inning and earn the win has this pitcher earned win way but this argument that wins dumb stat not saves guy could pitch five strong innings middle relief and see his teammates rally tie the score assume came start the fourth and left after the eighth his teammate holds the opposition scoreless the ninth and they score run the bottom the ninth win the third pitcher earns the win and the middle reliever gets stat satisfaction this again doesn support your claim about saves the beginning your post mike

not say nor did imply that could predict the future you have inferred that comments meant this and you have based your rebuttal comments the fact that statistical studies have demonstrated that there reasonable basis for predicting future performance regard clutch hitting sabo samuel sabo clearly better hitter than samuel yet you would pinch hit samuel because you predict that samuel will clutch hitter and sabo will choke hitter right call that predicting the future that your opinion that sabo clearly better hitter than samuel the above data for year period ending last season last season samuel batted while sabo hit not park adjusted this season they are both hitting below albeit sabo with more bats will agree that over his career sabo has been better hitter than samuel but will also remind you that samuel has been better hitter certain situations than sabo did not predict that sabo would choke nor that samuel would get hit expressed opinion that had been the reds manager even reds fan that would prefer have samuel hit that situation than sabo you were have been the reds manager that time assume you would have had some basis for letting sabo hit rather than pinch hitting samuel sure some that basis would have utilized prior performance you just wouldn have used this particular aspect prior performance this not correct right would have used aspects prior performance which have been shown consistent the past overall performance splits even matching hitting pitching styles all these will give some advantage used properly properly yes see even all else were equal there would advantage gained looking past clutch performance and this case everything else pointed sabo please help what exactly everything else that pointed sabo well yes you are aware its existance you claim incapable understanding though suspect you are simply unwilling yet you rather forcefully state the opposite you don seem think the work worth reading yet you obviously feel the topic important say this insulting must say was not aware the publication can you email the information regarding its availability and guess must apologize all those who have done extensive study say supply side economics didn mean insult you but never did believe you were the right path sorry for contrary opinion position also regret that don have the ability prove that you are wrong but you are believe that season end that chris sabo batting average clutch situations will significantly lower than his batting average non clutch situations can prove that will happen guess just have wait and see this simply prediction for chris sabo for this year this prediction for all batters who have over the past few years hit xxx amount worse the clutch than overall what says you mean the first then you say just have wait and see but the second much stronger statement fact suggests rule can then test this rule past data see worked for recent years think you will agree that the rule didn work last year the year before that unlikely any better this year right the second your statement not mine not going get into case analysis sure you can find somebody who hit poorly from and then hit poorly well you can also find those who hit poorly from and then hit well well actually haven yet but not finished looking that haven yet found someone who hit significantly below his overall batting average clutch situations for the years and then reversed that relationship gambler fallacy unless there reason expect consistency run proves nothing can you give reason expect clutch correlate from one year the next seen detailed study why shouldn expect correlate nope sorry but you were interested reason why expect chris sabo ability hit the clutch correlate from one year the next think could you were interested reason why expect joe carter ability hit the clutch correlate from one year the next think could but you not interested that because you think that those conclusions could only valid they could extrapolated over the entire baseball population and they can the stupid was reference statement which was stupid and don see how you can deny for total idiot yes you prove yourself unwilling even consider evidence that might suggest that you are wrong would say the term fits nicely the problem here that believe you accept your work believe that trying predict future clutch performance based prior clutch history meaningless better than coin toss actually accept your work happens also have opinion that certain situations for certain players history superior inferior ability hit the clutch might suggest reason what such history could valid projecting future player performance for that player and chris sabo one such player tell does the term fit you have open mind well since defer

trying imply that the accusations glenn davis malingering were certainly not played very much still the whispers reached san francisco certainly possible they were stronger elsewhere also was teammates making the aspersions any event know other player maligned the last couple years but any case believe mike lavalliere has been accused poor work habits and general sloth recently probably not malingering just was being released interesting that nobody heard much about these problems before they were important have heard sanders called many things well have not heard him called lazy given the sport phenomenon would difficult label him such exactly which means his media detractors have had say other things about him believe general phenomenon that writers don like you they find label that will stick matter who you are find myself more interested the selection labels than why writers feel they need act this way not that this fascinates that much either the original author point was that black and white players were por trayed differently the media and towards this gave highly selected list prove his case sanders name showed eventually dispute that sanders has ever been called lazy the media hmm big ego possible club house disturbance etc that good press but isn the total extent the press received pittsburgh where was called all kinds things including lazy and spoiled the local columnists again the actual words used may shift around with time and expediency but lazy tends higher the list for non white players least subjective opinion aside might interesting for somebody archival study player descriptions before and after the color barrier was broken and teams like the red sox which have been traditionally white nowadays most people think carl yastrzemski one those blue collar hard working guys but the early was often portrayed lazy bum really hmm never heard anyone accuse canseco being lazy nor sierra heard accusations that canseco was bad fielder but could great one put his mind ignoring whether not actually dave stewart was one the most vocal about this any event that not lazy least one poster the last week has fired off major screed the canseco lazy issue think your point best quibble and probably weaker than that that poster specifically stated allow the first not quibble then state that the media did not portray canseco being lazy the other person chooses accuse him after post that does not make quibble and fact the media around here tend play his time the wieght room hardly lazy and hardly quibble have you ever seen any mediot portray canseco lazy unconcerned with his fielding yes lazy bad fielder think this still interesting for that matter think canseco colorful off field antics get lots more national attention than those say roger clemens well had few more them least more that you heard about think one the questions here surrounds selective reporting having said that have say that the selective reporting hypothesis has the potential unfalsifiable least those who aren reporters police private investigators well canseco has been involved several felonies including his high speed record carrying concealed fire arms and course the domestic violence clemens had run bar canseco had that well and both cases the coverage was relatively minimal puckett stewart jackson said over represent non whites three anecdotal data points don make interesting counter argument btw which jackson are talking about here reggie darrin danny the only evidence offered anecdotal how can objected that the counter also anecdotal and seems like everybody who has ever won batting title among others has been accused some time caring more for his own stats than for the good the team also seems that you kirby puckett have never heard this accusation made puckett have heard boggs actually believe him but that another matter not living minnesota can say whether not this line has ever been used against kirby there far boggs goes not sure why you bring him since one the obvious prototypes for the line quoted along with ted williams rod carew and many others yes and agree with your assesment boggs rather specifically however you did say everybody who has ever won batting title has been accused selfishness have not ever anywhere heard this said puckett pendleton either similarly brett williams and others how about daryl strawberry and think the plus minus refers more the born again types butler and gaetti again you seem making argument from anecdotes the other hand argument the because jon says variety have other

indicates the average number earned runs attributed pitcher per nine inning game thus pitcher pitched innings and gave earned run his inning equivelent perfomance would earned runs thus his era compute the era you simply take the number earned runs divided the innings pitched and then multiple the result era think there another formula for era heard something about last year not sure what but gonna give stab allows for pitcher pitch more than innings time and not benefit cuz uses outs recorded instead innings pitched era outs recorded like said not sure this exactly but pretty sure they changed something the sort earned run run that given the pitcher that not attributed fielding error more specifically error occurs that represented the third out all runs scored after the error are considered unearned runs earned runs are also runs scored result players who were left base when the pitcher exited the game here are some examples there are two outs inning and there are men base error occurs that represents the third out all the runs after this error and not counted earned runs pitcher issues some base balls walks and leaves the game before the inning completed responsible for the people who were left base the those runners who were left base score and the score was not result error those eraned runs are attributed the pitcher who left the game hope this explains things

short stop who tags the bag before the runner safe the correct call infield fly batter out fair runners may advance own risk gotta tag caught etc not force and the pop was not caught regardless whether the tags wasn clear above hasn got the runner out the umpires don declare the infield fly rule and the third baseman allows the ball drop and throws the short stop who tags the runner from second while the runner between second and third out see rule approved ruling below this case the umpire has decided for whatever reason that the infield fly rule doesn apply sounds like bad call here but that not the point the batter not out force situation created therefore the runner out unless rule the ball dead and the batter safe then guess the runners would advance unmolested can really tell from that the ball dead this situation what the call and pertinent rules definition infield fly when infield fly called runners may advance their own risk infield fly rule the infielder intentionally drops fair ball the ball remains play despite the provisions rule the infield fly rule takes precedence batter out when infielder intentionally drops fair fly ball line drive with first first and

have the benefit hindsight well the jettison for youth fast strategy was his also hindsight didn work all that well but think was more because left the sharks tightrope without net not that was inherently flawed was the injuries that caused fall let say that the view the sharks upper management the attempt trade kisio was major factor the decision fire feirerra from all indications wasn the major factor but the last straw there were personality conflicts among shark management and disagreements over how personnel were going handled not just who was being traded kept but who was being sent what ferriera did rumors are right was not always what the folks behind the bench wanted needed inclined take exactly the opposite view they should have kept him obviously the luckiest man hockey think they kept ferriera they would have lost some their other management staff depending which sources you trust might have lost grillo and lombardi and murdoch over the summer frankly want keep those three may well ahve also lost kingston which course now moot point the sharks have been building organizational staff that highly consensual and cooperative ferriera wanted run things his way there were conflicts ferriera lost that says nothing about his skills accomplishments that level lot personality and politics think did some good things for the sharks but that never fit shark person

burr and probert and that was about and doubt some will dispute whether burr and probert were that good the rest were either very green rookies washed veterans the only reason they got far they did

said gund will have open his checkbook didn say give any draft picks promising talent could have gotten murphy for the great but agree the sharks shouldn give young talent early round draft picks listed chelios only indicate the type player think the sharks need pick the rules signing free agents less than years old puts big restriction what the sharks can pick however believer they need pick some players who will add toughness the team but you have remember that you unlikely get any real quality free agents who not require compensation the sharks tried with makarov who was probably the top the class among non compensation free agents but even probably wouldn have helped too much don expect get top quality just some toughness don view makarov player who would add toughness size hopefully won much worry next year alexander cherbayev and michal sykora have agreed multi year contracts and appears that mike rathje will also sign soon all three are pretty big size alone isn enough all know how much fear kolstad struck the eyes opponents not well rathje and sykora are both highly touted prospects unlike kolstad and cherbayev was initially supposed play for the russian team anybody know what happened there that means that likely good enough nelson you confusing skill and toughness mcgill hammond johan garpenlov would you really rather have those two instead johan your logic then you enjoy having falloon and ozolinsh injured reserve your logic then you think that the sharks had kept mcgill and hammond that you can guarantee that falloon and ozolinsh wouldn have gotten hurt think again there was chance that mcgill would have caused ozolinsh get stuck and you know hammond worthless and mcgill almost worthless well wilson maybe but don think falloon and ozolinsh were really injured cheapshots who said they were they weren then don see any justification that having mcgill and hammond around would prevent their injuries the injuries falloon and ozolinsh were purely accidental then what could mcgill and hammond have done prevent them hey get off the mcgill hammond thing fan either point that last year the sharks had toughness that was missing this year this year had more skill all for that but your skill players keep getting beat and injured they can you much good whether cheap shot not you can let the other teams push you around the sharks simply got pushed around much other teams knew this they knew they could aggressively check the sharks and not pay for adding some players the off season who will add some toughness the team will help insure that next season other teams will more hesistant vigorously check our skill players take cheap shots doesn guarantee injuries nothing does but something the sharks can reduce the

either die hard ranger fan guess have sat the garden throughout the penguins led mario goals decimation them but sick the abundance talent that has been totally untapped and the lack heart displayed this season have some final questions about the way the team was handled that last dreadful stretch knowing they needed offensive help from the blueline why didn see mike hurlbut who played pretty well when was called when leetch first went down hurlbut was injured for quite while not sure but think may have recovered time for the playoff run and like you question why wasn used why joe kocur playing every night not bob probert who tough but also can play believe kocur was used many instances for his intimidation factor granted seemed get awful lot ice time for that reason alone but you have realize that when team not doing any real physical intimidation like have nickel for every time said they got take the body more you got least have some illusions how come paul broten relegated street clothes for the end the season least plays with some heart and character draws penalties and plays when the ice was the doghouse for some reason agree and don know joe cirella enough said sorry don agree with you here think joey did good job filling when was asked can imagine that easy going from near ice time being full timer don seem remember him turning the puck over the blue line too much failing clear the zone worked hard and least didn make any rookie mistakes said himself interview can only give what has and did ranger fans may suffering but some the most loyal unlike islander

four times the last five years and everyone thinks its doomsville over this same period time which vancouver was improving was everybody the norris except louis detroit had improve just keep with the competition their division they had improve lot get better than their competition the norris bryan murray inherited team with very little talent for really good players they had yzerman burr and probert and that was about and doubt some will dispute whether burr and probert were that good the rest were either very green rookies washed veterans the only reason they got far they did the years before murray came was due the coaching demers who least first got every last ounce effort possible out his team then even his coaching began degrade fedorov primeau kozlov lidstrom sillinger konstantinov drake kennedy racine and cheveldae were already the pipeline due devellano murray inherited these guys addition yzerman probert carson chiasson etc there are number reasons why detroit wasn bad shape standings wise when murray took over vanc was when quinn took over some which outlined above but murray did not have any better personnel work with the outset than did quinn with the exception yzerman and one player cannot alone make team into stanley cup contender sure everyone reading this will agree quinn had far less murray took over detroit time take advantage all devellano

would intimate that the offers the sharks got this year for kisio were way greater than just round pick hindsight nobody expected kisio have his best career year besides without kisio the sharks would have tanked even earlier the season and gund might have gotten little more serious about getting joe murphy guy who definitely would around years from now when the sharks make the playoffs what else could done the gunds offered million for murphy but the oilers wanted prospect which the sharks declined give which think correct didn mean imply that gund offer wasn enough gund offer was the right but too late the season offered november lets sather buy replacement for murphy this season and make the playoffs this year march doesn help sather with his immediate objectives doesn help with long term objectives only prospect draft pick does and way should the sharks that however getting back what games had kisio been traded chicago last year then the sharks for october and maybe gund panicks

lack full game telecast last week was still too much hockey for atlanta atlanta abc has declined pick any playoff games till may and even when they show the games may and may they will continue skip the first half hour the telecast know this still better situation compared rest georgia alabama etc but still pretty annoying least pittsburgh had network preemptionchannel which showed all netwoork shows prempted the local affiliate asked them what their problem was told them that local rating was not that bad considering was the first nhl game shown after long time without much promotion besides their syndicated programming the afternoon usually low rated what did they have lose showing nhl playoffs she told that they had contractual obligations asked her golf was shown oin abc would contractual obligations come the way and how come contractual obligations didn come the way last week telecast she then couldn give coherent answer also added that atlanta had one the highest neutral site game attendances and that the demographics were good think abc and other networks should begin tie their high rated programs like roseanne with thier sports programming hope that everyone atlanta who reads this bboard calls wsb and complain bitterlyt about this tell them you will stop watching their news telecasts since they seem very unprofessional handling this situation the lady did not seem settle single reason sometimes the reason low ratings then another time she says contractual obligations rec.sport.hockey trivia question article apr sei cmu edu caj sei cmu edu carol jarosz

was robbed article apr jarvis csri toronto edu yaska eecg toronto edu yaska sankar writes paul stewart the worst and most biased ref presently the nhl was robbed patrick roy the reason the game was lost and ron hextall the reason quebec won don buy this all roy was the reason the game was tied and that would not have been the case had dionne kept his cool roy stood his head for the first minutes the game when the nords were rushing from end end kamensky mini break after the tying goal and the first shot young were both excellent chances stopped roy roy outplayed hextall for most the game but roy becomes the villain and hextall the hero because roy team didn make full use their opportunities whoa what you are effectively doing implying that player plays really well stores mistakes that can used later time ths not roy the villain you succinctly put because allowed very cheap goal you think roy outplayed hextall perhaps you should get tape the game and watch the first minutes the third period nhl goaltenders make some great saves they did not they would not the nhl the first place not expect any particular goalie able make the great saves all the time even though they are occasionally required however when comes routine shot like sakic especially such crucial time game don think there are any legitimate excuses hextall the other hand had lot lucky bounces description lucky bounces hextall wasn particularly brilliant those plays not arguing that hextall was brilliant arguing that relatively weak wrist shot from the outside the circle shold not result goal but was just the goal the timing stank but against explosive team like quebec they gave them opportunity too many with powerplay that was totally unnecessary one goal game with less than minute there such thing just the goal have not defended dionne for taking the penalty either fact think was boneheaded move but led one goal only and montreal had two goal lead main concern the second goal this most certainly was team loss leclair missed his opportunities did bellows and brunet dionne took bad penalty damphousse and lebeau were silent carbonneau and savard were step behind all night roy gave the bad goal roy means can singled out for this loss what you say about the skaters absolutely true but realize that the game was effectively won you could watch any hockey game fact you could watch any sporting event period and spend hours discussing the what missed opportunities they are not important when the final result decided get the time soon watch the game again and email you list lucky montreal bounces and list quebec offensive screwups montreal was leading with minute the goalie the last line defence and will grant that extra attention focussed him sometimes without justification but roy gave lousy goal and team cannot afford such goal roy looked like player industrial league sakic shot and hextall didn dionne goal please who cares what value justify one lousy play with totally unrelated lousy play could hextall critique you like but you going assess his performance keep mind that made the key saves the key times roy paid big money because that his value compared other goalies and still the top for the record did not say that roy was not one the top goaltenders the league fact agree that the montreal media the quickest heap praise and then hurl derogatory comments against the habs they are better than uninformed fans assume you are referring however have pointed out that think the loss can blamed roy have not said sucks nor think made any other derogatory comments you regard objective and informed fyi observations derogatory really can help you dchhabra stpl ists rec.sport.hockey buffalo sabres article msuinfo msu edu vergolin euler lbs msu

gave the german team penalty for that but didn help much guess the germans just are proud over their nazi kill all everyone don you think quite silly call nazi attitude when some people throw coins the ice hey don approve the behavior these guys especially not game but can see any reason for using the word nazi this connection but germans sucks attitude they just seem have that kind attitude every possible sport remember the european champs stockholm soccer soccer hooligans are not just german problem remember the world cup italy again there big difference between throwing coins and smashing shop windows fighting with other called fans who come just see the dutch the english the germans are the best bruisers which other sports are you talking about don think soccer every possible

successive shutout friday blanking the blackhawks game the norris division semifinals and giving the blues lead the best seven series the blackhawks haven scored against joseph since the mark the second period game joseph has shut out the blackhawks for minutes seconds blues record jacques plante held the previous record set the first round the playoffs against the philadelphia flyers one only two series the blues have sweeped their history the blues can wrap their first sweep since with victory game nationally televised game that begins noon sunday the blues have had only two sweeps franchise history both when they swept philadelphia and los angeles route the stanley cup finals the shutout friday was easier than wednesday game when joseph had make saves this time the blues held the shots down and the blackhawks couldn touch joseph well they touched joseph numerous times shoving him and pushing him every opportunity try get him off his game but joseph and the blues were unfazed dishing out their own punishment along the way the blues grinders bob bassen rich sutter kevin miller and dave lowry wore down the blackhawks taking the visitors from chicago off their game the grinders set the stage for the glamour boys the gifted playmakers and scorers who made the most their opportunities craig janney brett hull and nelson emerson scored getting one goal each period hull assisted janney first period power play goal after two unwise chicago penalties checker miller set hull goal the second period and rookie denny felsner assisted for emerson who scored the final

leveled bryan marchment and brendan shanahan dumped steve smith center ice chicago tried retaliate but troy murray decision run into joseph backfired referee dan marouelli gave him roughing penalty the blues didn get shot goal the power play and they survived scare after chicago killed the penalty when rick zombo gave the puck away steve larmer joseph stopped larmer shot and everything else chicago threw him the first period the hawks ignored the scouting report joseph about shooting high and continued shoot low where joseph butterfly style deadly rookie bret hedican picked three consecutive penalties midway through the period two for hooking and one for holding but chicago got only two shots goal many miller the blues penalty killer twice stole the puck and just missed good scoring chances against belfour marouelli began calling penalties the blackhawks even things caught brent sutter hooking shanahan four seconds after hedican third penalty called marchment for elbowing janney along the boards and gave the blues two man advantage later when christian ruuttu slashed shanahan the blues worked around the puck the ensuing power play and hull got where likes the high slot hull shot hit belfour right shoulder and the puck bounced precariously close the goal line belfour dived back cover but the puck squirted loose janney who poked into the net for his first goal the playoffs the blues continued their relentless hitting the period ended and the blackhawks lost their composure joe murphy tripped ron wilson with two seconds remaining the period and after time had expired smith upset the blues shooting the puck into the blues bench chris chelios made move toward joseph the teams left the ice and marouelli slapped him with minute misconduct chicago survived the blues power play but the loss chelios hurt didn return until the midway point the period and within three minutes his return hull had increased the blues lead deflecting miller crisp pass try they might the blackhawks couldn get joseph who stopped everything they could throw him stopped shots the second period and more the third chicago also hit the goalpost twice emerson goal put the game away

official game report just observations from the stands melrose made wise decision and put stauber back goal robb had something prove and did stopping while facing fierce calgary attack there were numerous highlight film saves kings third and fourth lines rose the occasion playing rough while avoiding bad penalties warren rychel scored the game winner early the second period rookie defenseman alexi zhitnik scored the first from the blue line late the first dave taylor awesome suffered broken nose partway through the second pariod checked from behind into the boards roberts who got and game came back late the third and was the ice when conacher scored the empty netter actually was the third period his return did bring spark the crowd and the players who played awesome defense the third the kings guys still are not producing goals from kurri granato sandstrom robitaille who have total points between them you forgot about gretzky any these guys start scoring the kings will unstoppable they continue the great defensive work well mccreary sucks called mcsorely for high sticking someone who was already the ice and sandstrom for high sticking when himself was already the ice missed many flagrant stick penalties including one from flame goalie jeff reese who followed granato out almost the blue line where cross checked him called the game very inconsistently with series ticky tack penalties the first and almost none the third can the nhl supply decent officiating was sitting directly across the ice from ron and nancy reagan when the empty netter was scored nancy leapt out her seat with both fists high the air way nancy this series still too close call tuesday game may the deciding one expect king might put vernon back even though reese had two good games reese has historically been good this was only the second time lost there this move would good for the kings since vernon such sieve sure that stauber will get the call for the kings stauber will net tuesday hopefully will provide another stellar performance and earn the name robb stopper stauber the firswt two lines the kings have wake while great see you cannot depend pat conacher and warren rychel for

given his current status still first round but don consider him first pick lock any means this point also possible that the senators are posturing try bring down his signing price since daigle has been taking some lindros lessons during thos suspensions imo would take kariya should alot leadership the ncaa and far the world championships daigle didn show this for his junior team san jose will then get kariya kariya won the first three for very simple reason not leaving college and don believe any the expansion teams are going use first for someone who won around for another year two not when there equally good almost good stuff available that can make immediate impact san jose seems leaning heavily towards niedermayer for that reason kariya could unless team can convince him leave

remember suffering builds character have some final questions about the way the team was handled that last dreadful stretch knowing they needed offensive help from the blueline why didn see mike hurlbut who played pretty well when was called when leetch first went down why joe kocur playing every night not bob probert who tough but also can play how come paul broten relegated street clothes for the end the season least plays with some heart and character draws penalties and plays when the ice was the doghouse for some reason joe cirella enough said ranger fans may suffering but some the most loyal unlike islander fans who only show when the team wins far the stanley cup goes think there only one team that can test pittsburgh and that detroit this would the most entertaining and hard fought series mario amazing kurt think joe kocus should play every night big physical guy and gets the fans into the game with some big hits both checks and fists its big advantage get the crowd going plus helps protect the other players notice there are very few fights when kocur the ice unless have seen people start after essa tikkanen only slinking away when kocur steps think big asset but should third line and special situation only play this fast becoming game without the goons admit kocur may get the fans into the game but surely they would rather see broten taking pass from kovalev and scoring breakaway goal put the rangers magic goals the third period rather than seeing kocur take another stupid penalty and the rangers giving another powerplay goal the rangers need another top

finally got some scoring from people other than mogilny and lafontaine khmylev sweeney hawerchuck etc indeed lafontaine played hurt and didn score many goals also the team played better defense although not great than the regular season fuhr deserves lot credit but not all robert agree with this also think fuhr contribution for sabres win just the same many palyers the team mogilny had six goals four games including two goals for the great comeback the final win after fuhr had left the key for sabres win over boston whole team strong commitment underdog and all their talent players including mogilny and fuhr think that grant fuhr deserves more credit than that while true that the entire sabres team played very well still believe that wasn for grant fuhr the series would now tied virtually stole games and for the sabres both these games fuhr stood his head give the sabres the chance win especially game fuhr made series huge stops the third period when the score was tied even game when the sabres won the score seemed indicate that the sabres dominated however hadn been for fuhr the sabres wouldn have been think was through the period and the bruins wouldn have had open the game thereby allowing mogilny score the third goal breakaway salt away the game there doubt mind that fuhr was the critical factor the victory opinion neely oates and juneau played well lafontaine mogilny and hawerchuk the sabres did get extraordinary efforts from hannan sweeney wood and khmylev compared that the bruins checkers however the bruins defense imo played better than the sabres

period when the wings had penalties called them and then delayed penalty the leafs had man advantage for about minute and man advantage for another minute two and the leafs still couldn score and wonder how the leafs scored powerplay goal according you they never had powerplay the detroit paper today said there were penalties called last night game and you saying detroit had none those penalties guessing you only watched the first period have admitt the leafs did get alot penalties that period where the wings didn get many any all haven looked the box scores yet but the ref more than made for the third period laurie marshall wayne state university detroit michigan wings apologies for the typo meant the wings had power plays the first period and the leafs none well point isn

only there blood penalty just because chaisson barely touched the poor sap and hit the dasher and bled profusely doesn mean penalty unfortunately the instant replay not used hits first immediately thought and game because the hit looked much more severe from intent injure perspective than was after seeing the replay say deserved minutes for boarding was careless any way you slice stewart had replay not think chaisson would have gotten and the game the second period behind potvin probert had the puck and was going get out front and was tackled couldn believe the call this call was bullshit agree admire stewart for letting them but probert looked saying where the hell the penalty never seen probert whine either doesn need now probie decides put wendel through the boards probably gone right don remember who the leafs touched the puck racine shot towards the end the game seconds left but stewart called out play last touched detroit everybody the garden including the linesmen knew yzerman protested but stewart just laughed and really homered the wings this was also bullshit but once again replay was rouse btw really pissed that the linesmen didn correct the call either when the

flames are now injury free the only player remaining the limp center carey wilson who even when healthy not major part the team trent yawney did not score goal all season until the last regular season game against san jose potted his first the year that game and has also scored goals both game and game against los angeles thoughts game the flames played horribly dropping the first game their series with los angeles sunday afternoon they seemed more interested throwing big hits than scoring goals they physically dominated the kings but that was the only area they dominated the game plan was rush the net and try and take advantage young inexperienced defence and the shaky kings goaltending but those plans fell the wayside while the flames conducted steady march the penalty box particularily stupid was theoren fleury taking five minute major and game misconduct for slamming warren rychel face into the dasher while rychel was his knees goaltender mike vernon played well and could not really faulted for the loss despite his well publicized poor record afternoon games got very little support from his defence clearing the front the net and sweeping away rebounds fact marty mcsorley goal actually went off chris dahlquist skate front the net thoughts game the flames came back strong the second game evidently aware the potentially fatal consequences losing both the first two games home ice the first period was fairly even with the edge going the kings but calgary came out strong the second period and simply dominated the kings scoring five goals take lead they never relinquished route win the deciding factors this game were faceoffs and special teams calgary dominated faceoffs they did game but they were able make better use the won faceoffs this game than they did the first one calgary also went for the powerplay while only went for and gave shorthanded goal joel otto powerplay goal also came late the game with the outcome already decided the kings powerplay failed them when they needed most the and periods the flames lost greg paslawski with suspected shoulder injury when was leveled alexei zhitnik right after scoring calgary goal charlie huddy left the game for the kings with groin injury the game was marred stupidity the last minute first craig berube calgary took five minute major for fighting plus game misconduct for instigating when

robin hanson draft april summary compared average monthly phone bill sixty dollars wiretaps are only worth two cents month police the proposed wiretap chip must raise phone costs less than one part three thousand cost effective background until now phones have happened allow the existence wiretaps detectors which could pick conversations phone line and over time law enforcement agencies have come rely this capability aid criminal investigations however powerful new encryption technologies threaten this status quo making possible truly private communication small chip each phone could soon make literally impossible overhear conversation without physical microphones either end order preserve the ability law enforcement agencies tap phone conversations the government announced april that had developed and begun manufacturing special wiretap chip placed future phones instead the total privacy chips which have been under private development the same day announced would use these chips all its secure telephone products each chip would created under government supervision when would given fixed indentifier and encryption key periodically during each conversation the chip would broadcast its identifier and other info special law enforcement block law enforcement officers with court order could then obtain the key corresponding the indentifier from special trust agencies and could thereby listen any future previously recorded conversations that phone date most concerns voiced about this plan have been about its security the government won disclose the encryption algorithm and many suspect the government will not limit its access the way has claimed the track record previous governments does not inspire confidence this point however this paper will neglect these concerns and ask instead whether this new wiretap chip cost effective tool for police investigation that which cheaper way for society investigate crime force phone communications support wiretaps give police agencies more money investigate crimes other ways put another way would police agencies willing pay for each wiretap they had pay their share the full social cost forcing phones support wiretaps start answer this question might compare the current benefits wiretaps provide law enforcement agencies with projected costs implementing the new wiretap chip plan and since current benefits are easier estimate begin there wiretap benefits the latest year for which wiretap statistics are available that year wiretap installations were requested and requests were denied this figure does not include wiretaps obtained with the consent party the conversation arrests resulted from wiretaps started the same year arrests came from wiretaps previous years and arrests led convictions the wiretaps were for phones pagers email etc were regarding drug offenses and were requested federal authorities each wiretap installation heard average calls them incriminating among people and cost average extrapolating from the installations reporting costs mostly for labor thus total about million was spent wiretaps obtain about arrests per arrest thus these arrests are least four times more expensive than the per arrest figure one gets dividing the billion spent all police nationally the total million non traffic arrests thus the million per year spent phone taps only one thousanth the total police expenditures and divide this the million phone access lines the country get about cents spent per year per phone line about two cents month general deter given class criminals through combination perceived probability being caught and convicted and some expected punishment level convicted the social value having wiretaps more than the amount that would have pay get the same criminal deterrence through other means unable wiretap particular suspect phone police might instead use hidden microphones investigate that suspect other ways police might focus suspects more easily investigated without wiretaps might raise the fine prison time for certain types crime generously assume that these substitutes for wiretaps would average twice expensive wiretaps then the annual social benefit phone wiretaps about equal the current spending level two cents month per phone line wiretap costs let for the moment optimistically assume that the government encryption scheme secure whatever private enterprise would have offered instead protecting our conversations from the spying ears neighbors corporations and governments both foreign and domestic even the need support wiretaps would add many additional costs build and maintain our communication system extra law enforcement blocks would added phone transmissions increasing traffic some unknown percentage special process must used add encryption keys chips while securely distributing these keys special agencies which must funded and monitored the chips themselves are designed military contractor whose design remain secret and are manufactured through special process that the chip becomes nearly impossible take apart chips are now offered the relatively high price peice lots private encryption systems not supporting wiretaps would require none these extra costs perhaps most important government degree would least partially replace private marketplace evolution standards for how voice represented encrypted and exchanged our future phones widely believed that governments are less efficient than private enterprise procuring products and standards though they may perhaps perform useful brokering role when choose between competing private standards how much less efficient matter debate some say they pay twice much while others might say only more currently total billion spent operating expenses phone companies which comes out about per month per access line compare this the wiretap value two cents per month see that wiretaps raise average operating costs even much one part then wiretaps are not cost effective and this doesn even include extra costs phone owners pay because their encryption chips are more expensive course most phones wouldn have encryption chips for while but the wiretap benefit per phone still the same this argument still applies conclusion given this dramatic difference between the total cost running the phone system and the value wiretaps can justify only the slightest modification the phone system accommodate wiretaps when the only modification required was allow investigators attach clips phone wires wiretap support may have been reasonable but when

maryland our two main products this time are based secure communications program called secom and general purpose encryption chip which uses the nea algorithm developed for secom secom provides encrypted secure communication link between two connected over dial telephone lines supports simultaneous directional file transfer and keyboard screen chat has its own proprietary communications protocol which tightly integrated the encryption all though packetized link the data stream appears continuous because the packet boundaries are hidden when secom was initially developed was implemented use des encryption business decision was made seek export approval for the product because was perceived that the overseas market was large one and provided good marketing opportunity soon found out that would never granted general export approval for anything using des all though the reason for this was never explicitly stated seems have something with secret government government agreements which are still effect any event the decision was made develop new and different algorithm which would take the place des this was the reason nea new encryption algorithm was born this time nea being held trade secret the preliminary work patenting has begun and the plan make public once the patent process complete all though one can make certain legal arguments for keeping ongoing secret think the case encryption algorithm necessary let people shoot over extended period time prove its worth order get export approval for secom nea was necessary through nsa and reveal them the

closely held private company and nsa fbi cia nist whatever has financial interest any way whatsoever with the company any the people involved from practical business standpoint are interested selling

through the host operating system could extract the cyphertext password data and apply cryptanalysis techniques learn the users passwords security risks the above scenario pretty low severity certainly once intruder has access the raw database files can access the data them cracker could break the passwords however could substantial damage without alerting the auditing mechanism and

telephony soon practical however allow tell parable there was once far away land called ruritania and ruritania there was strange phenonmenon all the trees that grew ruritainia were transparent now the days when people had lived mud huts this had not been problem but now high tech wood technology had been developed and the new age wood everyone ruritania found that their homes were all see through now until this point one ever thought allowing the police spy someone home but the new technology made this tempting this being civilized country however warrants were required use binoculars and watch someone their home the police taking advantage this would get warrants use binoculars and peer see what was going occassionally they would use binoculars without warrant but everyone pretended that this didn happen one day smart man invented paint and you painted your house suddenly the police couldn watch all your actions will things would back the way they were the old age completely private indignant the state decided try require that all homes have video cameras installed every nook and cranny after all they said with this new development crime could run rampant installing video cameras doesn mean that the police get any new capability they are just keeping the old one wise man pointed out that citizens were not obligated make the lives the police easy that the police had survived all through the mud hut age without being able watch the citizens will and that ruritania was civilized country where not everything that was expedient was permitted for instance neighboring country had been discovered that torture was extremely effective way solve crimes ruritania had banned this practice spite its expedience indeed why have warrants all asked are interested only expedience famous paint technologist dorothy quisling intervened however she noted that people might take photographs children masturbating should the new paint technology widely deployed without safeguards and the law was passed soon was discovered that some citizens would cover their mouths while speaking each other thus preventing the police from reading their lips through the video cameras this had prevented the police said after all was preventing them from conducting their lawful surveilance the wise man pointed out that the police had never before been allowed listen people homes but dorothy quisling pointed out that people might use this new invention covering their mouths with veils discuss the kidnapping and mutilation children one the legislature wanted accused being favor mutilating children but then again one wanted interfere people rights wear what they liked compromise was reached whereby all homes were installed with microphones each room accompany the video cameras the wise man lamented few any child mutilations had ever been solved the old lip reading technology but was too late the microphones were installed everwhere however was discovered that this was insufficient prevent citizens from hiding information from the authorities because some them would cleverly speak languages that the police could not understand new law was proposed force all citizens speak all times only ruritanian and for good measure require that they speak clearly and distinctly near the microphones after all dorothy quisling pointed out they might using the opportunity speak private mask terrorist activities terrorism struck terror into everyone hearts and they rejoiced the brulliance this new law meanwhile the wise man talked one evening his friends how all this was making sham the constitution ruritania which all ruritanians were proud why asked are obligated sacrifice all our freedom and privacy make the lives the police easier there isn any real evidence that this makes any big dent crime anyway all does make our privacy forfeit the state however the wise man made the mistake saying this the law required ruritanian clearly and distinctly and near microphone soon the newly formed ruritanian secret police arrived and took him off and got him confess torturing him torture was after all far more efficient than the old methods and had been recently instituted stop the recent wave people thinking obscene thoughts about tomatoes which dorothy quisling noted was one the major problems the new age plenty and joy perry metzger

just generate the key and not escrow which fine certainly pay more for this kind key than escrowed key face the escrow provider providing service the users don want the only people who want are the

identified the system does not rely registering people owning particular phone units against the proposal but lets accurate our objections not presume tell what have and have not read the system may not rely upon registering people owning particular phone units but necessary know which phone units are likely used for some suspected criminal communication before you can obtain their unit keys from escrow this necessity raises the stakes favor criminal coercing colluding use some other person clipper phone will restate assumptions more explicitly and amplify argument the original title perhaps should have been distinction between legal and illegal cipher systems considered harmful but clipper considered harmful not inaccurate and more eye catching the current context assumptions clipper made available laws are passed make use cipher systems other than clipper illegal either radio systems any common carrier system these laws also include enforcement authority listen across the relevant radio spectrum other medium characterize signals validate clipper wrappers detect probable use non clipper ciphers and make such detection cause for further action for escrowed keys useful some specific clipper chip must associated with suspected criminal this means that minimum some association between the common carrier unique phone esn and the clipper chip serial number will stored government database observed pairing and esn other than the one recorded raises red flag reduce ordinary fraud the cellphone system which offers clipper will also constructed with esn mechanism much more tamper proof and much less spoofable than today cellphones criminals want inscrutable communications some criminals are not entirely stupid ignorant and will figure out both that clipper cellphones offer excellent security normal circumstances and that they offer security against law enforcement once presumably legitimate wiretap order exists they will also figure out that the wiretap order must necessarily against specific cellphone because each one has unique unit key criminals not want call attention themselves because they are not stupid ignorant because they read netnews and because they know that their open use non clipper cipher likely detected they will generally avoid using non clipper ciphers directly some monitorable tappable channel they know that would raise red flag putting given cellphone not given person under immediate suspicion impractical reverse engineer skipjack discover family key and construct functional clone clipper chip and will very difficult spoof given clipper phone without immediate detection because difficult obscure one association specific phone reprogramming changing chips around the criminal will motivated find intact phone which associated with someone else non stupid criminal will conclude that they can have clipper secure communications least for some limited time they buy beg borrow steal use someone phone way that prevents that person from reporting compromise the phone for least time the encrypted communications might have been recorded and thus retrievable later but the criminal can delay and quite likely evade discovery destroying abandoning the phone before elapses would unusual for innocent person volunteer use their clipper phone someone else the honest subscriber doesn want pay someone else bill and doesn want fall under suspicion this leaves two sources clipper phones for criminal use coercion and collusion coercion first theft bears relatively low risk but also sometimes low time until detection few minutes phone stolen from car parked front store couple weeks phone stolen from someone who away vacation criminal commerce likely arise stolen clipper phones with phones coming from risk inured poor criminals and cash coming from risk averse wealthy criminals someone who extraordinarily motivated gain day two undetected communication like terrorist could kill person hold them hostage the limited time before detection that coerced phone useful means that continuing criminal enterprises require continuing supply freshly coerced phones there would also created collusive commerce between relatively wealthy criminals and ignorant don care patsies who need money and who will submit being paid return for subscribing clipper phone service for someone else use criminals will learn that more their advantage coerce use clipper cellphone than apply non clipper cipher normal cellphone they will call much less attention themselves least their stolen phone this way the fact phone use being coerced must first reported before can identified interesting phone and have its keys obtained from escrow clipper also allows extraordinary opportunity for the criminal conceal use super encryption automated full system surveillance mechanism quite feasible across radio bandwidth which knows family key can validate clipper wrappers and esn associations but cannot reveal realtime the use super encryption unless knows all unit keys which are being assured are only made available two separate pieces upon specific wiretap like order whereas criminal use any cipher within normally cleartext medium would stand out criminal use non clipper cipher within clipper medium would very difficult detect even post facto bulk recordings long the association between criminal and specific clipper chip fractured you make use this other cipher illegal per then you can charge the criminal with this you can identify the true criminal using someone else phone but you have evidence help you against whatever traditional crime might have been planning you will not even able detect that unusual encrypted communications are occurring until you identify specific phones and obtain their keys from escrow the gangster and terrorist are thus arguably more not less secure than they were before clipper came along therefore consider clipper harmful because does not provide absolute privacy the honest public against aggressive dishonest government other ciphers are proscribed engenders new types direct criminal threat the honest public provides extraordinarily effective mechanism for criminals hide their use some other cipher making more difficult than ever even gain notice that unusual communications are occurring and that plans for some criminal act might progress other ciphers are proscribed lazy investigators and prosecutors are more likely pursue the easily quantifiable cipher use crime than they are the traditional and directly harmful crimes which key escrow

mizzou missouri edu john kelsey writes the clipper chip user key formed why the triple encrytion used just gain effective increase keyspace defeat potential keysearch why use bit keys not knowing anything about the skipjack algorithm not really possible guess whether this makes harder easier guess why are and formed they are would facinating see the skipjack algorithm look for ways attacking that require three ciphertext blocks formed that odd way where the bit constant values that are concatenated with the serial number form come from are they changed from chip chip session session even they published the times skipjack resistant known plaintext attacks when using triple encryption then there break security but why allow that kind weird format those three bit values are truly random bits then maybe used ensure that known plaintext attack skipjack exists can easily used derive and for whole production run these chips can answer all our questions detail but can take stab them the form the operations that compute and course the famous triple encryption suggested for use with des much stronger than single encryption and has effective key length bits for reasons that were discussed when des was first standardized simple double encryption would not have the same strength triple encryption has been used ibm since more less the beginning encrypt other keys recommended for anything very high value and think can agree that the and fit that description why and well you need different plaintext values have idea they disclosed not guess they constructed that they differ many bit positions possible goo cryptosystem will scramble things lot with even bit change but the values series will have fairly similar bit patterns and there might conceivably weakness the values are and guessing chosen increase the hamming distance any event quite convinced that one cannot back the from the let alone observe the nsa has they don need find but even they they can get and theory they should never even see those values even with warrant the real question think why use this scheme all opposed hardware random number generator answer that this much more verifiable look suppose that nsa nist the aclu the eff and the nra combined build really good random number generator and that passed every test you could think when you come back next week program some more chips does still work that well have any components changed value have the components been changed out from under you does still work well the the presence focused microwave beam that tends bias towards selecting bits yes you can run detailed statistical tests again but that hard consider the other hand software solution you bring your own floppies with you you can run cryptographic checksums etc lot easier verify that the software unchanged other words yes can think ways cheat software too think that they lot harder there are three issues with clipper the first whether not the architecture the whole scheme capable working answer with one significant exception yes really think that nsa and nist have designed this scheme about well can assuming that their real objectives are stated permit wiretapping under certain carefully controlled circumstances with minimum risk abuse the exception that exists outside the chip programming diskette that seriously wrong and should loaded onto the chip separately those who disagree and don claim answer obvious though found own reasoning sufficiently persuasive that was forced rewrite the conclusions section technical analysis paper had originally blasted the scheme issue this invitation assume that you were charged with implementing such system with complete regard for civil rights and due process what would you differently answering this question please accept nsa fundamental assumptions that both strong cryptography against outsiders and the ability wiretap some domestic users necessary you feel necessary challenge those assumptions the context the last issue present below right here discussing just the technical aspects and don any means claim that just because something can done should the second issue whether not this whole architecture actually going used just because clipper chips are made this way doesn mean that that the only way they made maybe the nsa will substitute its own chips between the programming facility and the shipping dock and they generate bogus warrant requests that the escrow agents don wonder why they never called sorry guys all them terrorists and drug dealers and pedophiles seem have bought triple des phones instead who thunk have answer this question and the moment don see way answering those concerns are part reasoning answer the final question below the third and most serious issue whether not clipper good idea even carried out strictly according the letter the law think that the answer but not brainer civil libertarian not libertarian for reasons that explained great length the net the elder days and that don have the energy repeat now but that means that willing accept that some laws are necessary long they respect the essential rights individuals the government already has the ability and our system the right issue search warrants and while that power has certainly been abused also been used quite properly and fairly other cases key escrow sufficiently different think but

they would have responded with something the form well that won problem because don alvarez posted good partial solution this problem comp risks present variant instead since feel bit stronger against some likely attempts cheat depends the protocol that followed for reading traffic briefly the cops get wiretap warrant and record the call they then notice the encryption and the disclosure header along with copy their warrant sent the fbi whoever who holds the family key the holder decrypts the header and sends the serial number and the encrypted session key the escrow agents they turn use and recover and send that the local police note how this solves the problem wiretapping forever neither the cops nor the fbi ever see they can read other traffic every request must validated both the fbi and the escrow agents the cops and the fbi together can cheat since they don have regard that likely pairing folks who might try beat the system prevent this that modified alvarez scheme the escrow

opponents accomplice collects the remaining message the bit bucket and uncompresses kill now and prevent all such subliminal covert storage channels you would need have maximal entropy all the time

the private part the key consists the other factor each block the text encrypted first turned into integer either using ascii even simple representation this integer then raised the power modulo and the resulting integer then sent the encrypted message the receiver decrypts taking this integer the secret power modulo can shown that this process will always yield the original number started with what makes this groundbreaking development and why called public key cryptography that can openly publish the product and the number while keeping secret the number that anyone can send encrypted message namely mod but only can recover the original message taking what they send raising the power and taking the result mod the risky step meeting exchange cipher keys has been eliminated people who may not even trust each other enough want meet may still reliably change encrypted messages each party having selected and disseminated his own and his while maintaining the secrecy his own another benefit this scheme the notion dig ital signature enable one authenticate the source given message normally want send you message raise plaintext your and take the result mod your and send that however message take the plaintext and raise secret power take the result mod then raise that result your mod your and send this then even after you have normally decrypted the message will still look like garbage however you then raise public power and take the result mod public you will not only recover the ori ginal plaintext message but you will know that one but could have sent you since one else knows secret and these are the very concerns the way that are day tormenting the soviet union about the whole question personal computers the one hand they recognize that american

enough the computer that performs the copy can also encrypt the data fashion that all but unbreakable remember that soviet society publicly cessible xerox machines are unknown the relatively few

maxim proverb generally attributed the eskimoes which very likely most libertarians have ready heard and while you likely would not quarrel with the saying you might well feel that you heard often enough already and that has nothing further teach and moreover that maybe you even tired hearing shall therefore repeat now you give man fish the saying runs you feed him for day but you teach man how fish you feed him for lifetime your exposure the quote was probably some sort workfare welfare context namely that you genuinely wish help someone need you should teach him how earn his sustenance not simply how beg for and course this true only because the next time hungry there might not anybody around willing even able give him fish whereas with the information how fish completely self sufficient but submit that this exhausts only the first order content the quote and there were nothing further glean from would have wasted your time citing again after all seems have almost crypto altruist slant though imply that should structure our tivities maximize the benefits such hungry beggars may encounter but consider suppose this eskimo doesn know how fish but does know how hunt walruses you the other hand have often gone hungry while traveling thru walrus country because you had idea how catch the damn things and they ate most the fish you could catch and now suppose the two you decide exchange information bartering fishing knowledge for hunting knowledge well the first thing observe that transaction this type categorically and unambiguously refutes the marxist premise that every trade must have winner and loser the idea that one person gains must necessarily the expense another person who loses clearly under this scenario such not the case each party has gained some thing did not have before and neither has been dimin ished any way when comes exchange information rather than material objects life longer zero sum game this extremely powerful notion the law diminishing returns the first and second laws thermodynamics all those laws which constrain our possi bilities other contexts longer bind now that anarchy consider another possibility suppose this hungry eskimo never learned fish because the ruler his nation state had decreed fishing illegal because fish contain dangerous tiny bones and sometimes sharp spines tells the state has decreed that their consumption and even their possession are too hazardous the people health permitted even knowledgeable willing adults perhaps because citizens bodies are thought government property and therefore the function the state punish those who improperly care for govern ment property perhaps because the state gener ously extends competent adults the benefits provides children and the mentally ill namely full time all pervasive supervisory conservatorship that they need not trouble themselves with making choices about behavior thought physically risky morally naughty but any case you stare stupefied while your eskimo informant lates how this law taken seriously that friend his was recently imprisoned for years for the crime pos session nine ounces trout with intent distribute

likely some combination these per haps even other motives but since you have zero desire become martyr your cause you not about mount military campaign even try run boatload fish through the blockade however here that technology and particular formation technology can multiply your efficacy literally hundredfold say literally because for fraction the effort and virtually none the risk attendant smuggling hundred fish you can quite readily produce hundred xerox copies fishing instructions the tar geted government like present day america least permits open discussion topics whose implementation stricted then that should suffice but the government attempts suppress the flow information well then you will have take little more effort and perhaps write your fishing manual floppy disk encrypted according your mythical eskimo public key parameters but far increasing real world access fish you have made genuine nonzero headway which may continue snowball others disseminate the information you have provided and you have not had waste any your time trying convert eological adversaries even trying win over the unde cided recall harry browne dictum from freedom unfree world that the success any endeavor general inversely proportional the number people whose persua sion necessary its fulfilment you look history you cannot deny that has been dramatically shaped men with names like washington lincoln nixon marcos duvalier khadaffi and their ilk but has also been shaped people with names like edison curie marconi tesla and wozniak and this latter shaping has been least

against des quite feasible now but normally des applied cbc cfb mode where one chooses random init vector bytes questions makes sense handle the init vector additional key then have bit key yes anything known about the security this key scheme can break faster than exhaustive search through the bit key space unfortunately the answer concealing the initialisation vector essentially doesn give any additional security got answers from grady netcom com mark lomas cam smb research att com that opened eyes pretty simple say encryption and decryption with key bit blocks let the initialisation vector the message blocks the cipher text blocks then encryption cipher block chaining cbc mode works the formula xor and decryption xor the attacker doesn have this only affects the first message block but she can her key search attack the situation cipher feedback cfb mode bit more complicated but similar and left exercise for the reader finally there the modified output feedback mode ofb where des whatever block cipher you use simply acts random generator with initialisation vector seed and encryption given xor here the usual known plaintext attack against xor bitstream ciphers

the message the problem not sure impossible come with message that will hash the same crc regardless the random starting block intuitively seems like ought hard but not that sure clearly crypto strength hash like the sha would stronger but again not sure comfortable claiming that unbreakable scheme use some the pad bits decide how many bits include the plaintext stream before going wouldn too bad either the cost increasing the speed with which you use your pad this could used give you arbitrarily low probability that your opponent could spoof valid looking message since any deciphered plaintext spot that should carrying will show that something funny going for each message bit used one random bit decide whether insert into the plaintext stream get total pad use times the message length expand the message size about half each that should appear the plaintext stream that doesn guess for our would spoofer each bit she has guess trying see how quantify her chances making all the way through the spoofed message but gets little complicated because she can get synched and still happen have that place the spoofed message now can see simple way doing this that got secure one time pad cost using times the message length pad bits for each message bit use one random bit and xor them together get now encrypt the three bits with the one time pad the enemy has way guessing what she can guess what either any change she makes the ciphertext stream will have involve guess what was there any way this without using many pad bits spoofing the message equivalent correctly guessing many random bits there are bits the message clearly this makes spoofing messages just hard you know the whole message text you know none fact looks like this makes just hard generate spoofed message with

the expense key distribution etc imply that the clients really want that level security these same people want keep secret find hard believe that eve might happen have copy lying around aware that the same argument applies eve knowing even small part the message but eve must know exactly where which bytes her known susequence starts the result will garbled find this least surprising back the question had the resources use one time pad for such transmissions would also append message authentication code the message using the next bits the one time pad the key perhaps your original question basically asked whether there was any way authenticate the message with the same degree security the pad itself provided and don know the answer however would propose the following for discussion alice and bob have arbitrary number secret random bits share which eve doesn know she finds them out effectively knowing some and the corresponding the fact that they correspond that causes the problem message authentication code was created using some one time pad operation such that eve could not know which parts the mac were affected which parts the input she would unable forge mac correspond what required non linear combiner parts the message non linear that simply xoring subtracting whatever doesn have exactly the same effect now the end the encrypted message alice appends bit mac computed follows means the next full chunk the one time pad compute xor and pad bit boundary with more break into bit chunks set mac initialisation vector for each chunk sequentially set mac mac nlop the end this process mac the message authentication code bob verifies the mac the obvious manner recovers the plaintext then uses some more his pad reproduce the mac the same manner nlop the non linear operator and there the rub the simplest non linear operator can think box that have fixed even published permutation the bit integers indexable table called sbox and use nlop xor sbox practically speaking think this solves your problem eve never sees the intermediate output and hence can deduce perform any valid substitution also practically speaking you want the mac fairly large

some random sector like you mentioned there are the laser holed disks and hardware keys but they are both expensive and pain the butt for the end user which you the opposite what you want another

installed the original disk again the original disk should encrypted compacted have many sectors that should checked and anything else you can think make sure that the original cannot copied once again you must put code encryption self rewriting code and multiple crc checks the program make sure that does not get changed among other things this also protects your program from virii the program

called radar well actually not quite both radar and radio altimeters measure distances measuring the time required transmit signal then receive its reflection from target radar generally uses pulses while radio altimeters use either pulses modulated continuous wave transmission the case the latter highly accurate distance measurement can made example the original bendix ala radio altimeter was accurate foot feet altitude note however that this different method measuring than the poster originally asked about the problem with gaining accurate measurements between transmitter and seperate receiver that you need highly accurate time base which starts the receiver the exact instant the transmitter triggers this cannot wire connected since radio waves will actually travel faster free space air this case than wire the difference called the velocity factor the cable you need resort common timebase that automatically corrected for distance etc something like pll connected gps receiver should the trick triggering both the transmitter and receiver simultaneously sound expensive not too bad but plan spending few bucks both equipment and effort why not different method surveyors use laser light system where again the reflection time measured why not try this sounds like something should know about anyway seems that you should able measure the signal strength and determine distance this would for short distances and would need have accuracy inches this actually highly inaccurate since the power output transmitter varies from unit unit there are variances the antenna and transmission line and the receiver may also vary both from unit unit and the same unit over time you would need continuously calibrate the entire system with the radio altimeter this also done but since everything located one place much easier note especially that the time base for the receiver and transmitter one unit also depends the environment static environent such waveguide yes dynamic environment with objects moving about the multipath kills this concept nope capture effect says that the strongest signal wins that unless the two interfering signals are seperated more than signal strength this the one problem that makes altimeters inaccurate very low altitudes signals bouncing off runways tend very strong what frequencies would best for this does matter high possible

legitimate copy the simplest and virtually fool proof way for the program somehow fixate itself the machine was installed some sort checksum serial number whatever copy put different machine not installed from original disks will not work okay what you some part the machine presumably the part which the code number whatever that the program has fixated itself upon goes bad you replace that part and now your program won run because different computer this course assuming that the program uses something rom like the bios serial number maybe and not disk based code number obviously the drive goes bad you reinstalling the stuff anyway work computer lab which part the university microlab system have the wonderfully fun task maintaining well over hundred machines both and macintosh well administering network over next machines personally concerned only with small lab with ten and ten mac not the manager but help him with admin often imho copy protection schemes any sort are nothing more than major headache for the legitimate user anyone who wants copy your program and doesn care about legality will get copy period pirate board pirate board too have friends who blatantly and quite successfuly hack copy protection schemes practically their sleep let consider what goes our lab almost daily have least one machine down sometimes several due some goofball screwing some setting other piece software admittedly being students mostly are not the world most efficient and effective network administrators but try keeping even the twenty machines that are partly responsibility even vaguely looking and acting similar the average user and maintaining behind the scenes consistency real headache but not bad headache trying remember twenty different folder locations norton utilities when some guy trashes his disk often have hardware problems peak business times and have some parts swapping get stuff working temporarily well cut the chase and quit boring all the point often have install software and copy configuration files etc from machine machine far the easiest way have found this get one machine working exactly the way want then copy the complete setup this machine the other nine that machine type this ensures that for least ten minutes have ten identical machines work with having them networked simplifies this considerably our major packages wordperfect windows etc are all network versions and thus only one copy mess with often however need install package requested some instructor one some all the machines for special project this usually hand written shareware etc program similar what believe the original poster was asking about the few have had with copy protection schemes have caused nothing but nightmares for maintain short don waste your time with copy protection scheme sort like outlawing guns the criminals will get your program anyway and you will only hurting the legitimate honest user write good user guide and tech manual whatever else for your program please this regardless whether you copy protect the thing and only distribute the manual licensed users jack the price cut your losses but please take cue from the major companies who can admittedly afford the costs illegal copies far better than you and don burden the legitimate user with copy protection scheme sorry for the tirade but been long day here

depends the programmer don use disk drive characteristic the user did upgrade the machine she should reinstall all programs any way document look disk wear and tear did not say that the originals would allow only one install the user conscience should that know get flamed for this but with the increasing number casual users who either unknowingly don care about the software copyrights the truth have friends who ask for copies latest games all the time and when refused they went after somebody else casual pirating becoming more problem some sort copy protection will discourage the casual copying seen what some friends dug somewhere latest and the greatest games all cracked within days actual release you know how many bytes you need change wing disable the quiz two yes two and don ask which ones they are determined pirates are unstoppable given enough time but their results not spread that far since pirate boards are not that well known and easily tracked once found authorities the casual pirates that the copy protection determined discourage what believe the companies should implement the above plus special patch once the user registers that loudly exclaims upon bootup registered xxxxx address city state zip and disables the above two benefits encourages registration cuts down pirating and makes more traceable because the patch registration message encrypted will quite hard change and therefore provides stable trail who allowed their copy out their hands and thus violated their license agreement this way the legitimate users who does not register will experience minimal discomfort who does major upgrades their computer frequently only problem they have they won able restore another computer the registered users would have proven they are legitmate users and therefore gains full rights and can restore different machines the other hand the software company now have record where this particular copy supposed this user copy was found somewhere was

few and they seem use some the winding for the usual error feedback but some the others seem loose what are they for better than that anyone have full schematic for one these that could get copy love

other wish focus the subject warm running amplifiers sure the amp runs very fairly hot but that how you get amp sound incredibly good amp that runs hot has bearing how gonna sound the amp you have probably running class the whole day because either the engineer manufacturer that amp wanted skimp heatsinking cooling save costs hmmmmm there correclation between warm running amps and good sound your words does have bearing now don suggest that everyone run out and create combination stove amplifiers that will degrade lifespan but cold running circuit much more suceptible temperature variation with varrying current than warm running one and since junction resistance function temperature this has detrimental effect linearity few facts bias points vary with temperature junction resist varrie with temp adcom products not run class you still don beleive this assertion consider the warm requirements for most good test equipment better yet just listen amplifier warm many designs its quite audible mine about minutes for the output stage many hours for the drivers fortunately the drivers are not switched any experiment when drawing conclusions from listening betcareful seperate

when the thing switched was doing most the common things one supposed when using relays and nothing seemed get rid the clicks question there good relay relay circuit that can use for switching audio that there will noise any kind the audio lines will appreciate any advice references advice also exact part numbers company names etc for the relays will help the first step make sure that there component intentional not the audio lines switched neither the output input presents unintentional level let say they capacitively coupled then putting resistor from each input ground and from the output ground good precaution against leakage any coupling caps presenting level that guaranteed cause click the device presents unintentional level that from more than just coupling capacitor leakage then you need remove the before switching with coupling capacitors your own you have more than one relay each relay switching one input through common output you can use make before break switching where for brief instant both sources are connected during switch change this may mask the switch click audio switch that clickless made taking light bulb and making your own ersatz opto isolator with light dependent resistor ldr sealed inside piece black heatshrink many broadcast consoles use this older but time honored technique claro actually makes complete optisolator like this but don have part number handy radio shack has ldr grab bag you might want try for simple solid state clickless switch that cheap you might try looking the analog switch that commonly available its older predecessor the again the component must removed prior switching other alternatives include jfet switches both discrete and and diode switching which works relatively well surprisingly all the above with their pitfalls and application tips could easily make subject for multi page article solid state switches may induce click their own when turned due charge being injected into the audio line through device capacitance when the control signal changes state techniques minimize this include lowering the impedance the signal paths through the switch differential switching and slowing the

the basic down converters with pretty good results efficiency but running into problems when try design build anything that puts out serious amps know can done have some guts bench but something puzzles using simple choke the storage element basicly toroid with single winding but all commercial models use transformers with many windings traced few and they seem use some the winding for the usual error feedback but some the others seem loose what are they for better than that anyone have full schematic for one these that could get copy love see how they manage squeeze out much from such low volume most commercial switchers not use magnetics for their energy storage that handled the big caps the primary side those which linearly regulated power supply would considered the filter caps coming right after the bridge the transformer just that transformer there primarily step the voltage down although the inductance seen the switch transistor the primary side not negligible anyone who zapped said transistor from either failing get one with high enough breakdown voltage neglecting include snubber diode across would tell you actually many transistors intended for switcher use today have the diode built the basic switched mode power supply operates something like this somewhat simplified manner the line rectified produce high voltage more less unregulated rail the energy storage filter caps appear across this rail does the switching transistor the transistor chops the current into the primary side the transformer resulting stepped stepped down pulses out the secondary which are then rectified and filtered least one the transformer outputs sampled and fed back the control circuit for the switching transistor which acts pulse width modulation pwm fashion control varying the pulse width the amount energy being dumped into the primary and therefore the voltage coming out the secondary the remaining outputs may allowed simply run whatever value they will more less tracking the regulated output they may have some additional linear regulation added you may also note that the feedback between the regulated output and the pwm control which most typically not done via direct electrical connection this due various safety standards which require primary and secondary circuits electrically isolated often the feedback path involves optoisolator meet this requirement while the transformer isn the primary energy storage device these designs this does not mean that the energy stored the transformer can ignored besides the inductive kick giving the switch transistor bad time noted above you also need worry about getting all the energy that went the transformer back out again one way another some designs this happens more less automatically but others you need take special care ensure that the transformer core doesn saturate which again would have disastrous results best left the imagination not any stretch the imagination power supply designer

garage the garage unheated they were left their places that they needed one the riding lawnmower what lux and one each motorcycle the battery the riding lawnmower was about years old and one the cycle batteries was new and one was around years old upon spring time discovered that all the batteries were dead and needed recharged they all worked properly except for the older ones and they had replaced about halfway through the summer they had originally been stored the garage and think remember dad charging them spring last year decided bring them the basement which has two parts one dirt and brick and the other concrete brought all three and discovered the spring about days ago that not only were the batteries dead but when put the charger them the charger said hmmmmmmmm and the amp meter read around other words was pinned the internal circut tripped and went the other batteries they were the same realizing that still had gigantic sailboat batteries also lead acid decided put the charger them these had been sitting for around and half years the brick and dirt part and noticed that they only needed small charge around hours trickle tested them using them the local gas station for giving jump starts and they worked fine for around this leads believe one several things bought really tty batteries last year sorta true the concrete has something with the discharge the

ask ham over listen the interference occurs specific time each day then would possible such scheduling nothing else you could invite the ham over transmit from your driveway see interferes does then you probably need have your equipment worked make immune interference have ham radio interference committee whose members are most willing help you resolve interference complaints look the phone book ask the local ham radio store call the fcc for contact info the fcc may may not have such information they have enough without getting calls for such information nothing else call your city offices

camter astro ocis temple edu carter ames writes thought the first thread was hilarious here goes another post some more background information what has happened poor batteries one year left the batteries the garage the garage unheated they were left their places that they needed one the riding lawnmower what lux and one each motorcycle the battery the riding lawnmower was about years old and one the cycle batteries was new and one was around years old upon spring time discovered that all the batteries were dead and needed recharged they all worked properly except for the older ones and they had replaced about halfway through the summer they had originally been stored the garage and think remember dad charging them spring last year decided bring them the basement which has two parts one dirt and brick and the other concrete brought all three and discovered the spring about days ago that not only were the batteries dead but when put the charger them the charger said hmmmmmmmm and the amp meter read around other words was pinned the internal circut tripped and went the other batteries they were the same realizing that still had gigantic sailboat batteries also lead acid decided put the charger them these had been sitting for around and half years the brick and dirt part and noticed that they only needed small charge around hours trickle tested them using them the local gas station for giving jump starts and they worked fine for around this leads believe one several things bought really tty batteries last year sorta true the concrete has something with the discharge the batteries there was enough moisture short out the terminals the room where the concrete the dirt room was able absorb the moisture the air better than concrete btw can almost waterski the dirt room any other ideas could the aliens anything possible the lead acid secondary cell releases energy electricity with the following chemical reaction pbo pbso lead and lead oxide and sulfuric acid produce lead sulfate and water the standard heats formation the various compounds are heat formation compound kcal mole pbo pbso the heat reaction therefore kcal per mole pbso produced note that lead sulfate not very soluble grams per grams water and will thus precipitate out solution where the reaction occurring the cathode positive terminal the battery almost sure the positive terminal where the precipitate forms but may wrong well don have corroded battery corrobate and don feel like thinking through right now what important notice here that the reaction you knew would exothermic energy discharging moisture with dissolved electrolytes acid rain condenses the battery conductive path between the terminals may form this will discharge the battery the chemical reaction proceeds the reaction reversible electricity from alternator battery charger put back into the battery lead acid batteries must change chemical composition discharge each cell has all the reactants necessary for the reaction the non reacting posts terminals the lead acid battery are there remove add electric energy during discharge charge because the reaction exothermic has tendency happen though quite slowly under normal circumstances while keeping the battery dry good idea not total solution understand why lead acid batteries indeed discharge faster when stored concrete opposed wood earth dirt one should recall lechatelier principle which can paraphrased anything subjected some stress will act move more comfortable position here are the thermal conductivities some selected materials thermal conductivity material temperature btu diatomaceous earth natural across strata diatomaceous natural parallel strata diatomaceous earth powder density concrete cinder stone dry pine across grain parallel grain oak across grain maple across grain note that the thermal conductivity for dirt diatomaceous earth goes down with temperature also about and the values for earth powder are the same order magnitude natural earth the thermal conductivity concrete around factor greater than that dirt and times greater than wood these differences thermal conductivity that cause the battery concrete discharge faster than that dirt wood any instant the discharge reaction occurring energy being released either electricity heat thermal conductivity air about btu during storage except for the trickle that passes through any condensate the battery this energy mostly released heat the higher conductivity surface will remove the heat proportionately faster than the lower conductivity surface thus you perfectly insulated dry battery all but the bottom surface any given battery temperature above the storage surface temperature the battery concrete surface will discharging about times faster than that dirt this where lechatelier principle comes into play removing energy from the exothermic reaction will drive the reaction further completion the reaction normally occurs room temperature keeping the battery that temperature requires the removal any heat produced concrete surface better heat sink than dirt wood surface store battery the corner poured concrete basement and you have surfaces removing energy which pulls the reaction along also water evaporates from the battery that elevates the ratio sulfuric acid water this will tend drive the discharge reaction jeff white jhwhit ulkyvx

fairly expensive you are likely better off selling your old printer and purchasing new deskjet now that prices have declined much upgrading original deskjet requires fair amount skill but soldering upgrading deskjet plus involves swapping the processor card and changing few minor parts contact your service center for further information the pcl language used deskjets considerably different from the pcl used laser printers especially the newer laser printers the biggest problem dumb laser drivers that send raster end command after each scan line this makes material difference for lasers but causes the deskjet print the accumulated raster you might guess the result hideously slow printing the new dos wordperfect print deskjet drivers are still guilty this particular behavior from the way wordperfect works this would not easy change windows wordperfect works efficiently unless you use the dos drivers instead windows the pcl dialect used the laserjet iiip allows compression that permits full page dpi image rendered with only one megabyte memory uncompressed image could large about kbytes but the printer needs about memory for its internal house keeping laserjet models support banded printing that allows incrmental download the image with compression limited memory situations deskjet downloadable fonts are not compatible with laserjet fonts single page from laserjet only requires about seconds this faster than any but the most trivial printing from deskjet printer the presumption course being that the laser printer has completed its warm cyle until ink chemistry changed wicking resulting image deterioration unavoidable won use the word impossible but matching laser quality output from deskjet printer unlikely chosing appropriate paper type helps but does not

these weird amplifier types improved efficiency class amps are pwm pulse width modulation amps which work very much like switching power supplies think seen these things called class before well they capable very high efficiencies and would suitable for very high power yet see anything like this used audiophile amp though been trying design three kilowatter for the last year used inverter for ups but have been having serious problems with layout parasitics irf parallel any help with able isolated drive ckt would appreciated not absolutely positive about this but beleive class amp one that operates off variable switched power supply rail voltage the carver amps something like this they use some sort phase control circuit not fully understand its operation reduce the transformer size and

lead sulfate and water heats formation deleted the heat reaction therefore kcal per mole pbso produced note that lead sulfate not very soluble grams per grams water and will thus precipitate out solution where the reaction occurring the cathode positive terminal the battery almost sure the positive terminal where the precipitate forms but may wrong well don have corroded battery corrobate and don feel like thinking through right now the major problem with this that the reaction takes place acid solution pbso soluble acid solution and will not precipitate out also water solution and thus the heats formation pbso and are for the most part irrelevant what important notice here that the reaction you knew would exothermic energy discharging turns out the reaction indeed exothermic heat producing more about this later what actually happens make the battery completely useless this talking lead acid batteries course the battery slowly self discharges this discharge takes place two things happen the level ions the acid solution increases the lead and lead oxide plates are dissolved the level ions the acid solution decreases the solution becomes less acidic more like water you like now the post which responding correctly stated pbso will precipitate water non acid solution when the battery dies fully discharged end with high concentration and water pbso forms the solution and falls the bottom the battery course this happens varying degrees the more discharged the more precipitate forms the precipitate forms conductive layer the bottom the battery there enough the lead and lead oxide plates left touch the precipitate more common newer battery dead short results have seen products automotive shops correct this condition but they are for the most part useless they can dissolve the pbso but cannot restore the lead and lead oxide plates properly you may have some success with these products for newer battery stuff deleted understand why lead acid batteries indeed discharge faster when stored concrete opposed wood earth dirt one should recall lechatelier principle which can paraphrased anything subjected some stress will act move more comfortable position here are the thermal conductivities some selected materials stuff deleted this where lechatelier principle comes into play removing energy from the exothermic reaction will drive the reaction further completion the reaction normally occurs room temperature keeping the battery that temperature requires the removal any heat produced concrete surface better heat sink than dirt wood surface store battery the corner poured concrete basement and you have surfaces removing energy which pulls the reaction along this stuff just made the author and completely invalid fact the discharge reaction takes place higher rate higher temperatures logical consequence the above argument this you really want your car start lower the battery temperature pull the reaction along all know from experience least those canada gets cold here that this not true want start our car really cold day warm the battery besides which there not enough energy released through self discharge appreciably raise the temperature the air would amply dissipate any such heat whether the bottom the battery was insulated not this course irrelevant since you would want the battery cool during storage just keep the

the past few months week and during the last visits gained pounds every weeks she said this was unacceptable over any week period stands thus far gained pounds also she says that though weeks the baby size weeks think she mentioned inches for the top the fundus when was weeks the baby size was weeks must also add that had operation few years ago for endometriosis and had problems with endometriosis but apparently causing pain pelvic region during the pregnancy and have very difficult time moving and the doc has recommended not walk move unless have have little handicapped sticker for when need out anyway that the situation the other that almost from the beginning pregnancy was getting sick throwing about times day and mostly was bile that was being eliminated told her about this know this because wasn eating very much due the nausea and could see the results well now only get sick about once every weeks and still bile related but addition had begun feel movement near upper right abdomen just below the right breast usually when was lying right side began get worse though because started hurt when lay right side and then hurt matter what position was next noticed that when ate greasy fatty foods felt like entire abdomen had turned stone and the pain the area got worse however ate sauerkraut vinegar something cut the fat wasn much problem the doctor says have cholistatis and that should avoid fatty foods this makes sense and because was already aware what seemed this cause and effect relationship have been avoiding these foods own but still able eat foods with ricotta cheese for instance and other low fat foods but doc wants non fat diet this means meat except fish and chicken skin this anyway nuts fried food cheese etc allowed skim milk she said should avoid anything sweet bananas also must only have one serving something high carbohydrates day potatoes pasta rice she said can even cook vegetables little bit oil and that should eat vegetables raw steamed concerned because understand you need have some fat your diet help the digestive process and not taking fat she expecting the baby will take from stores and why this restriction carbohydrates she concerned about fat not clear how much her recommendation based weight gain and how much cholistatis which can seem find any information she originally said that should only gain pounds during the entire pregnancy since was about lbs overweight when started but sister gained lbs during her pregnancy and she taken all off and hasn had any problems she also asked any members family were obese which none them are anyway think she overly concerned about weight gain and feel like being punished severe diet she did want see again one week think she the diet may temporary for that one week what want know how reasonable this non fat diet would understand she had said low fat diet since trying that anyway even she said really low fat diet think she assumes must eating high fat diet but really that because the endometriosis and the operation not able use the energy from the food eat any opinions info and experiences will appreciated truly going stark raving mad trying meet this new strict diet because fruits and vegetables through system few minutes and end having eat constantly thus far don find any foods satisfying thanks for one week she probably wants see how you react the diet changes anything you can live the diet but you need your calories where before you had pat butter now you need medium apple probably microwave cooked smaller meals but more them not terrific amounts meat hard digest anyway for comfort and make the carbohydrate meal last longer eat pasta rice which give their calories slowly rather than bread corn maybe smaller meals you may getting less room the stomach area the baby still coming starting push rub under your ribs how tight are your clothes you shouldn wearing any clothing that compresses your middle sure not suck your stomach when sitting again will put pressure the digestive tract try laying your sides back and stay reclining positions for the many hours you are being inactive easier your legs circulation well you might try letting the baby turn least not forced under the ribs during the last months when you are shortwaisted easy for that baby end right under the diaphram especially you have tight abdominal muscles had second one over again think have tried loosen since didn turn sideways until late and the relief was enormous maybe this doctor does have thing about weight gain pregnancy maybe she just nags all her patients this way especially she young but this gallbladder whatever problem that might coming something avoided possible nausea etc can vary from person person and with each pregnancy first pregnancy

warning the blood flowed like river the street said there were pieces women all around and you could not piece them together one woman holding her two children her hands was lying with them the ground dead they had heads before mujanovic arrived with his supplies conditions were deplorable said many deaths could have been prevented had the hospital had surgical tools facilities and medicine the six general practitioners who had been operating before arrived had even less surgical experience than did they didn know the basic principles for amputating limbs once arrived the situation improved said but mid september had run out supplies bandages were washed and boiled five times sometimes they were falling apart hands said doctors had anesthetic and could not give patients alcohol numb the pain because increased bleeding people were completely conscious during amputations and stomach operations said blood transfusions were impossible because they had facilities test blood types felt

worsened mid december after bosnian serbs began major offensive the region every day had air strikes and shellings then the hunger set between mid december and mid march when planes began air dropping

such effect humans has not been demonstrated any controlled studies infant mice and other models are useful far they but they not relevant the matter hand which not say that favor its use things like baby food patently ridiculous use the additive but have reason believe that msg the diet effects humans adversely well know that msg effects adversely maybe not permanently but least temporarily enough that like try avoid the stuff from kiran village com kiran wagle writes you don like additives then for godsake get off the net and learn cook from scratch sheesh excuse why can people learn cook from scratch the net gotten lots recipes off the net that don use additives you like additives then get off the net and your local supermarket buy lots packaged foods and you get off the net cover the fact that the recipes are not very good the food poor quality yes and you buy says something about your taste don and what happens when the companies forced submit your silly notions out business because nobody wants buy their overpriced bad food removing preservatives directly raises food costs reducing shelf life hey pay hard earned dollars buy food that costs more but does not have preservatives choose speak with pocketbook many ways from kiran village com kiran wagle you have good point msg commonly used soups bottled sauces seasoning mixtures and the coating barbecue potato chips nacho cheese doritos breading for many frozen fried foods like fish and chicken etc naseum msg really the problem should call this barbecue potato chip syndrome maybe diner syndrome the and other natural flavorings syndrome been few years since bought anything labelled with and other natural flavorings from kiran village com kiran wagle the reaction came the time the msg was the food that was the only difference same restaurant same ingredients how you know this order demonstrate your claim you would have had supervise the preparation both occasions perhaps they used msg both times and lied about perhaps once they used something that had begun spoil and produced some bizarre toxin that you allergic well had had similar reactions many times that was when really started watching carefully reaction doritos hey guess what there reaction lawry season salt guess what there give you hint had enough problems with many many many different products with msg that figured out one thing unless plan getting sick won eat the stuff without seldane and did ever learn read labels please note that not saying you are making just trying point out that the situation not always simple might seem which was why started checking every time got sick and every time got sick msg was somehow involved one the food products and consider there were other similar ingredients knowledge might not please medical researcher but pleased own personal physician enough for him give allergy medicine and most importantly enough proof for avoid and enough proof that incredibly frugal fiance didn flinch when literally threw out gave away all the food products his pantry that had msg and always flinches when there waste but was simple explanation won eat this stuff won cook with this stuff can either throw out give away from pattee ucsu colorado edu donna pattee guess was that the spice mix the fries contained msg probably lawry seasoning salt love the way that tastes not saying never consume anything with msg noticed that have certain tolerance level like small bag bbq chips once month not problem but that same bag chips will bother also had chicken bouillon yesterday and lunch one the chinese restaurants the day before from kelley healthy uwaterloo catherine kelley all that needed now that final step double blind study done humans there isn even ethical question about possible harm this widely used and approved food additive but some say that only the population has problem with msg some say more like but let say that how many people would have tested that would have problem also know have problem with and wouldn volunteer for test like thanks guys but don want get sick also sure that most people probably have varying degrees sensitivities different times have cold much more susceptible the reaction than when healthy proven today when stuffy but for some silly reason still gave and decided have the bbq chips from kiran village com kiran wagle because too many you generic rhetorical you not you cathy around calling this chinese restaurant syndrome thus suggesting the people you complain that you experience this only from chinese food msg prevalent lot more things than chinese food thats why suggested calling this diner syndrome cathy doesn haven saved all postings but never called chinese restaurant syndrome and never stated got only from chinese food just thought would easiest conduct personal test chinese take out place that knew would hold not hold the msg can call whoever makes doritos and ask them make one back chips without msg the other hand one complains about potatoes from mix restaurant spice mixes going believe them and anyone says they got msg sick after eating too many barbecue potato chips party really going believe them well believe mentioned that earlier post let see you wrote this message date apr but date apr gmt wrote has anyone had msg reaction from something other than chinese restaurant lots times that why was hard for pin down would probably have been easier only have the reaction certain type restaurant but had the reaction chinese restaurants and greek restaurants and italian restaurants and steak places can tell you when steak joint uses accent tenderize their meat and just case anyone thinks prejudice against either chinese food asian people not going home cook some chinese food for the

fair income would for physicians those polled said about year would how generous how sporting how stupid why this poll stupid because based resentment and envy two emotions that ran hot during the political campaign and are still simmering you could conduct the same kind poll about any group that earns plus and get the same results since the majority americans don make those bucks they assume that those who are stealing from them maybe the berlin wall came down but don kid yourself karl marx lives also stupid because didn ask key questions such you know how much education and training takes become physician those polled said they didn know then they should have been disqualified they gave the wrong answers they should have been dropped what good are their views how much doctor

higher blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels shows also the importance diet and particularly the potential the diet increase body weight thereby leading whole host other health problems developing countries and affluent nations well explains principal investigator william connor head the section clinical nutrition and lipid metabolism oregon health sciences university over the past years connor

western industrialized nations virtually non existent their culture loosely translated the name tarahumara means fleet foot reflecting tribal passion for betting kickball races which participants run

together with squash and gath ered fruits and vegetables the tara humaras also eat small amounts game fish and eggs their food contains approximately percent total calories fat which the majority percent vegetable origin dietician martha mcmurry coinvestigator the study describes their diet simple and very rich nutrients while low cholesterol and fat the tarahumaras have average plasma cholesterol levels low density lipoprotein ldl cholesterol levels and high density lipoprotein hdl cholesterol levels all those values are the good low risk range according the researchers elevated cholesterol and ldl cholesterol levels are considered risk factors for heart hicnet medical newsletter page volume number april disease hdl cholesterol considered beneficial previous studies the tarahumaras had been found low risk for cardiac disease although able respond high cholesterol diets with elevations total and ldl cholesterol clinical research center dietitian mcmurry and

women and eight men including one adolescent were fed their native diet for week followed weeks affluent diet this study went concentration dietary fat that was percent total calories this the prototype the holiday diet that many americans consume diet high fat sugar and cholesterol low fiber elaborates conners such dietary characteristics are reflected the cholesterol saturation index csi recently devised research dietitian sonja conner working with connor the csi single number that incorporates both the amount cholesterol and the amount saturated fat the diet csi indicates the diet potential elevate the cholesterol level particularly the ldl connor explains the tarahumaran diet averages very low csi connor affluent diet used the study ranks csi the experimental design this study reflects the importance establishing baseline plasma lipid levels typical the native diet before exposing subjects the experimental diet the standard curve relating dietary food intake plasma cholesterol demonstrates leveling off plateau for consumption large amounts fat changes dietary fat and cholesterol this range have little effect plasma levels you must have the baseline diet almost free the variables you are going put into the experimental diet the framingham study for example did not discriminate the basis diet between individuals who got heart disease because the diet was already high fat all subjects were already eating plateau connor says after weeks consuming the affluent diet the subjects mean plasma cholesterol levels had creased percent primarily the ldl fraction which rose percent hdl cholesterol increased per cent and ldl hdl ratios changed therefore very little plasma triglyceride levels increased percent and subjects averaged pound gain weight according connor lipid changes occurred surprisingly soon yielding nearly the same results after days affluent diet after days hicnet medical newsletter page volume number april the increase hdl carries broad dietary implications for industrialized nations think hdl cholesterol increased because increased the amount dietary fat over the fat content used the previous tarahumara metabolic study that study saw change hdl levels after raising the dietary cholesterol but keeping the fat relatively consistent with native consumption the present study increased fat intake percent the total calories reached the conclusion the tarahumara study that hdl reflects the amount dietary fat general and not the amount dietary cholesterol hdl must increase help metabolize the fat and increased quite bit this study connor explains low hdl the tarahumarans not typically important predictor coronary heart disease because they not normally consume large amounts fat cholesterol hdl remains important predictor americans because their usual high fat intake connor recommends diet for americans that contains less than percent total calories fat less than cholesterol and csi around varying accordance with caloric needs such diet low meat and dairy fat high fiber connor also comments recent suggestions that americans adopt mediterranean style diet the original mediterranean diet its pristine state consisted very low intake fat and very few animal and dairy products are already eating lot meat and dairy products simply continue that pattern while switching olive oil not going help the situation the world health organization who focusing much attention the emergence diseases such coronary heart disease nations and societies undergoing technological development connor says that coronary heart disease starts with given society elite who typically eat different diet than the average citizen the pattern afluence increases the entire population will have have higher incidence coronary heart disease which places termendous health care burden society who would like the developing countries prevent coronary heart disease they can concentrate other aspects their economic development and public health measures improve general well being rather than paying for unnecessary expensive medical technology connors says the overall implication this study that humans can readily move their plasma lipids and lipoprotein values into high risk range within very short time affluent excessive diet the present rate coronary heart disease the united states percent less than was years ago lot

appreciate any comments about this and other new technology for hearing aids the resound system was developed the basis some research and appears take different approach from other aids appears that new programmable aid like the widex just uses more flexible and programmable version the classical approach amplifying some parts the spectrum more than others and adding some compression try and help out noisy situations the major difference the resound approach that divides the spectrum into low and high frequencies splitting point programmable apparently based the fact that lots vowel information can found the low frequencies while the important consonant information unfortunately for the high frequencies the two bands then are treated with different compression schemes which are programable they have also developed new fitting algorythm that builds what they call abnormal growth loudness this latter interesting and fits own personal experience though think the phrase missleading what appears the case that you exceed the minimum threshold for person with hearing loss the deficit becomes progresslively less compared normals and the time you reach the too loud point the sensitivity curves appear converge this means that you just boost all sound levels you are overloading the high end for people with hearing losses hence what you want progressively less amplification the signal get closer the maximum tolerable point you want boost low volume sounds more than high and potentially differently for the low and high frequency parts the spectrum specially for someone like who relatively normal cps and then falls off cliff aids with simple compressors don descriminate between energy the low and high frequencies and can therefor compress useful high

access oxygen given chance mouth anus sinus cavity and vagina having these good bacteria around will greatly decrease the chance candida blooms the anal region the vagina have not proposed systemic action for candida blooms know that others swear that all kinds symptoms arise from the evil yeast blooms the body not ready buy that yet believe that complications specific sites vagina anal and maybe lower colon sinus and mouth can result from antibiotic use which removes the competing bacteria from these sites and thus lets candida grow unchecked restoring the right bacterial balance the best way opinion get rid the problem anti fungals low carbohydrate diet and vitamin supplementation may all help minimize the local irritation until the good bacteria can take over control the food

banschbach vms ocom okstate edu writes candida blooms following the use broad spectrum antibiotics gorden rubenfeld through mail has assured that most physicians recognize the chance candida blooms occuring after broad spectrum antibiotic use and they therefore reinnoculate their patients with good bacteria restore competetion for candida the body not believe that this yet standard part medical practice nor mine what tried explain marty was that clearly understood that antibiotic exposure risk factor for fungal infections which not the same saying bacteria prevent fungal infections marty made this sound like secret known only veternarians and biochemists anyone who has treated urinary tract infection knowns this some centers pre liver transplant patients receive bowel decontamination directed retaining good anaerobic flora attempt prevent fungal colonization this soon high risk group also use lactobacillus treat enteral nutrition associated diarrhea that may part due alterations gut flora however not part routine practice reinnoculate patients with good bacteria after antibiotics have seen data this practice preventing treating fungal infections risk patients whether not logical extension from the available observations leave those you who base strong opinions and argue over such speculations the absence clinical trials one place such therapy has been described treating particularly recalcitrant cases difficile colitis not fungal infection there are case reports using stool someone elses enemas repopulate the patients flora don try this home not give give her advise use the otc anti fungal creams since candida colonizes primarily the ano rectal area symptoms should more common than vaginal problems after broad spectrum antibiotic use except that isn least symptomatically apparent disease medicine has not and probalby never will practiced this way there has always been the use conventional wisdom very good example kidney stones conventional wisdom because clinical trails have not been done come with effective prevention was that restricitng the intake calcium and oxalates was the best way prevent kidney stones from forming clinical trials focused drugs ultrasonic blasts breakdown the stone once formed through the recent new england medicine article now know that conventional wisdom was wrong increasing calcium intake better preventing stone formation than restricting calcium intake seems like this excellent argument for ignoring anecdotal conventional wisdom euphemism for data and doing good clinical trial like dismukes wade lee dockery hain randomized double blind trial nystatin therapy for the candidiasis hypersensitivity syndrome see comments engl med dec psychological tests results the three active treatment regimens and the all placebo regimen significantly reduced both vaginal and systemic symptoms less than but nystatin did not reduce the systemic symptoms significantly more than placebo conclusions women with presumed candidiasis hypersensitivity syndrome nystatin does not reduce systemic psychological symptoms significantly more than placebo consequently the empirical recommendation long term nystatin therapy for such women appears unwarranted does this trial address every issue raised here jon noring was not surprised this negative trial since they didn use sporanox despite crook recommendation for nystatin maybe they didn avoid those carbohydrates the conventional wisdom animal husbandry has been that animals need reinnoculated with good bacteria after coming off antibiotic therapy makes sense for livestock why doesn make sense for humans david are not talking about dangerous treatment unless you consider yogurt dangerous this were standard part medical practice gordon says then the incidence distress and vaginal yeast infections should decline marty you also changed the terrain the discussion from empiric itraconazole for undocumented chronic fungal sinusitis with systemic hypersensitivity symptoms noring syndrome the yoghurt and vitamin therapy undocumented candida enteritis elaine palmer syndrome with systemic symptoms there significant difference between the cost and

effective therapies challenged negative randomized trial confirm etiologic hypothesis post hoc ergo propter hoc can seem focus disease therapy hypothesis under discussion lost candida can that you gordon think that the best clinical trial for candida blooms would involve giving women with chronic vaginal candida blooms acidophilus orally and see can decrease the frequency and extent candida blooms the vagina since most the candida seems migrating from the anal region and acidophilus should able keep the candida check can make through the intestinal tract and colonize the anus where will have access oxygen just like does the vagina much stuff there the lay press about acidophilus and vaginal yeast infections really amazed that someone has not done clinical trial yet check out the calcium and kidney stone story not good reason throw all conventional wisdom out the window where would medicine conventional wisdom had not been used develop many the standard medical practices that could not confirmed through clinical trials the clinical trial very new arrival the medical scene and very important one the lack proof that reinnoculation with good bacteria after antibiotic use

part the disagreements about the whole yeast issue differing perceptions and differing meanings words medical doctors have very specific and specialized jargon necessary for precise communication within their field which fully cognizant since too speak jargonese when with peers for the situation sci med many times the words phrases used doctors can have different and more specific meaning than the same word used the world large causing significant miscommunication one example word and very relevant the yeast discussion the exact meaning systemic now obvious that the meaning this word very specific much more than its meaning non doctor there also the observation this newsgroup that both doctors and non doctors come together essentially equal terms which when combined with the jargon issue can further fan the flames this probably the first time that practicing doctors get really beat non doctors for their views medicine which they otherwise don see much their practice except for the occasional difficult patient point understand the viewpoint among many practicing doctors that they will not prescribe any treatments therapies for their patients unless such treatments have been shown effective and the risks understood from well constructed clinical trials usually double blind that such treatments therapies are part approved and funded clinical trial these doctors any differently would this belief system unethical practice and follows that any therapy not the accepted list therefore non therapy does not even exist nor does the underlying hypothesis theory have any validity even sounds very plausible extrapolation what currently known anecdotal evidence has value either from treatment point view and and large scientist myself glad that medical practice science takes such rigorous approach medical treatment however also being human being last checked and having been one those people that has been significantly helped currently unaccepted treatment where standard medicine was not able help has caused sit back and wonder holding such extreme and rigid scientific viewpoint itself unethical from humanitarian considerations after all the underlying intent the scientific approach medicine protect the health the patient providing the best possible care for the patient the patient should come first when considering treatment what need slightly modified approach treatment that satisfies both the scientific and the humanitarian viewpoints earlier post outlined crazy idea for doing just that the gist was give any physician freedom and encouragement the medical community prescribe alternate not yet proven therapies maybe supported anecdotal evidence for patients who all avenues accepted therapies have been exhausted and not until then the patient would fully informed that such therapies treatments are not supported the proper clinical trials and that there are real potential risks with real possibilities benefit derived from them this approach satisfies the need for scientific rigor also satisfies the humanitarian needs the patient and the reality that many patients who have reached dead end the treatment their symptoms using accepted medicine will outside the orthodox medical community either the doctors who are brave enough prescribe such treatments the risk losing their license worse non doctors who have not had the proper medical training this approach also recognizes this reality and keeps the control more within orthodox medicine with the benefits that the information gleaned could help focus limited resources towards future clinical trials the most productive way everybody wins this admittedly rose colored approach sure there are real problems with this approach well presented more strawman stimulate discussion hopefully what write here may give the sci med doctors better idea why open alternative therapies well why have real difficulty read apparent hostility with the coldness the pure scientific

purpose chemotherapy don worry about the spelling some these crazy medical words are impossible spell either destroy cancer cells keep them from growing different drugs have different effects cancer cells and therefore not uncommon use more than one drug time some chemotherapeutic drugs are effective anytime during the growth cycle cell others work only specific times during the cell cycle the first phase the cell cycle when the protein synthesis and rna systhesis occurs the second phase synthesis dna occurs the third phase the dna splits and rna and protein are synthesized aagain the fourth phase mitosis the cell may divide there are drugs which are effective each phase some stop dna synthesis others stop the cell from dividing others wreck protein synthesis any rate the end result that being sought for the cancer cells stop growing what you are seeking practical advice apologize for rambling the techno stuff some side effects are pretty common chemo drugs are rather nasty can cause person lose their appetite and experience nausea and vomiting things help this include eating small frequent meals also suggested that nausea vomiting hereafter known occurs that the

break after breast cancer another stressor tried take care for several months with supplementation didn work internist ended putting prozac was going give you list several studies that have been done using niacin folate and cure depression not going that because all you would doing flying blind like was lida believe that depression can have dietary component but the problem that you need know exactly what the problem and then use approach which will fix the problem for chemotherapy knew exactly what drugs were going used and exactly what nutrients would affected same thing for pms was flying blind for both these stressors but the literature that used devise treatment program was pretty good depression just too complicated what you really need nutritional scan this not diet analysis but analysis your bodies nutrient reserves for every vitamin and mineral except vitamin you have reserve the rda not designed give you enough any nutrient keep these reserves full only designed keep

who will run these speciality nutrition tests make sure that they are using lab that has been certified under clia the clinical laboratory improvement act diet analysis may helpful since many nutrient reserves have been shown correlate fairly well with the dietary intake monitored food logging and software analysis nutritionist and other software programs but there are still about half the nutrients required humans that not show very good correlation between apparent dietary intake and reserve status until have more nutritional assessment clinical labs operation the and physicians who

preventing stone formation than restricting calcium intake marty marty personally wouldn quick and take that nejm article kidney stones gospel first all would want know who sponsored that study have seen too many nutrition bulletins over the years from local newspapers magazines guide with disclaimers the bottom informing that this great health news was brought compliments the dairy industries there are course numerous other interest groups now that thrive financially the media hype created from the supposedly enormous benefits increasing one calcium intake secondly were all the kidney stones the test subjects involved that project analysed for their chemical composition the study didn say that only claimed that most kidney stones are large calcium perhaps won long before another study comes with the exact opposite findings curious phenomenon with researchers that they are oftentimes just plain wrong wouldn the first time sodium magnesium calcium phosphorus ratios are opinion still the most reliable indicators for the cause treatment and prevention kidney stones for one will continue recommend the most logical changes one diet through supplementation counteract prevent kidney stones either type and they definitely won include increase calcium the stones have been identified being the calcium type and people chemical analysis confirms that they would benefit from phosphorus raising approach instead ron roth ron you are absolutely right not all kidney stones have calcium and not all calcium stones are calcium oxalate but the vast majority are calcium oxalate calcium just one piece the puzzle cited that nejm article way pointing out some the physicians this group that conventional wisdom used medicine always has been and probably always will one uses

one preliminary study should not prompt people out and start popping chromium supplements for one thing just about every older person going have low rbc chromium unless they have been taking chromium suppleemnts yeast since glucoma often found older people not too surprising that chromium was low the rbc chromium supplementation could reverse glucoma that would prompt some attention suspect that there will clinical trail check out this possible chromium link glucoma you could find out what your body chromium pool size was either the rbc chromium test hair analysis most clinical labs are not going run rbc chromium there are plenty labs that will hair and nail analysis for you but wouldn use them there just too much funny business going these unregulated labs right now here weinsier and morgan advise chromium they not consider chromium one those minerals for which reliable clinical test available they don like the hair and nail analysis labs either and they also recognize the rbc chromium primarily research test that not routinely available most clinical chemistry labs this has change and more labs run rbc chromiuum will what then they suggest make diagnosis chromium deficiency based documented clinical response chromium run glucose tolerance test before and after chromium supplementation once you make the diagnosis put the patient crcl orally each day grams yeast per day what advise don take chromium supplements try loose weight they just not work that way you want take them and then exercise that would great include yeast part your diet most americans are not getting enough chromium from their diet you have poor glucose tolerance ask your doctor check your chromium status when she says what the world are you talking about just say please get copy weinsier

review the research notes the cold fusion scientists actually proved fraud just very shoddy experimentation your sources not seem research articles they are more like lay texts designed pique human interest subject area just like the food combining and life extension texts robert try keep open mind but some things just can buy one taking sod orally prevent oxidative damage the body your experiment conducted readers this news group would prove that you are right more ash after seed sprouting than before unless you use muffle furnance and obtain very high temperature above degrees believe you will get organic residue the ash even the residue commercial incinerators contains organic residue remember doing this kind experiment organic chemistry couurse college but couldn find temperature for mineral ash formation really guessing degrees may actually much higher the point that one their home could ever get high enough temperature produce only mineral ash they also could not measure the minerals they could only weigh the ash and find out that you appear correct chemical reactions abound our body our atmosphere our water and our soil are these fusion reactions yes many them involve fusing oxygen nitrogen and sulfur both organics and inorganics really have the transformation silicone calcium carbon fused with silicon not book robert silicon the most abundant mineral our planet seen speculation that man could have evolved silicon based rather than carbon based life form like reading science fiction many people but know enough about biochemistry and nutrition able most cases separate the fiction from the fact silicon may one the trace elements that turns out essential humans have several grams the stuff our body what doing there only the lord knows right now but will tell you what know about silicon and why you state helps bone healing and not because silicon transformed into calcium almost all the silicon the human body found the connective tissue collagen and elastin there have been studies published which show that the very high silicon content elastin may important protective factor against atherosclerosis the higher the silicon content elastin the more resistant the elastin age related loss elasticity which may play role the increase blood pressure that often seen part the ageing process humans for bone fracture healing the first step collagen matrix into which calcium and phosphate are pumped osteoblasts high level silicon the diet seems speed this matrix formation this first step the bone healing process seems the hardest for some people get going electriacl currents have been used attempt get the matrix forming cells oriented the right direction that the matrix can formed the gap gaps between the ends the broken bone vitamin deficiency slowing collagen formation well causing the prodcution defective collagen does slow down both bone and wound healing zinc also another big player bone and wound healing and silicon undetermined role that most likely involes matrix formation and not transformation silicon calcium for you take this bone healing observation and use proof that silicon transformed into calcium interesting little trick but robert have the same problem myself when read the lay press and yes even some scientific papers the explanation reasonable without very good science knowledge base you and most readers this news group are flying blind you have take faith because you don know any better the explanation seems make sense based knowledge base inclined consider this usually means trying find

gordon has them going include some the material from weinsier and morgan new nutrition textbook which was not original material point out that what going say has some support the medical community diet has been know affect the immune system man for very very long time protein has always had the biggest role infection and already covered the role protein protecting you against infection now going hit what consider the most important nutrient the far infection concerned vitamin when vitamin was originally discovered was commonly referred the anti infection vitamin many people linus pauling being one have decided take this title away from vitamin and give vitamin which already covered big mistake opinion vitamin also getting reputation anti cancer vitamin with good reason the nci currently has numerous clinical trials progress see vitamin can not only prevent cancer but cure well role both cancer and infection almost identical but not quite vitamin comes two completely different forms retinol and beta carotene retinol the animal form and toxic beta carotene the plant form and completely nontoxic both retinol and beta carotene display good absorption the human gut bile present the liver stores all your retinol and doles out for other tissues use synthesizing retinol binding protein rbp normal human adult liver should have retinol stored are born with our liver autopsy has shown that about americans die with the same less amount vitamin they were born with you don believe that nutritional reserves like that retinol the liver are important then this low vitamin reserve not going affect you but you believe like that the nutrient reserves are important then there problem with vitamin the the rda for vitamin adult male vitamin for adult feamles its vitamin diet surveys show that most americans are getting this amount vitamin either retinol beta carotene from their diet but the nrc national research council was going release new rda table that had the rda for both vitamin and vitamin raised per day and per day for adult males that report and recommendations was killed why concern over the increasing supplementation was the main reason rdas are set prevent clinical disease not keep nutrient reserves full many scientist the feel that the time has come move away from the prevention clinical pathology concept and move towards the promotion optimum health concept especially since have some very good data now that show that nutrient reserves are extremely important during periods stress the nutritonal concervatives won that battle and new group scientist were collected come out with the rda list which lowered the rda for several nutrients and moved the dietary guidelines back where they were when first started the get enough prevent clinical pathology but not enough fill the reserves know from autopsy that only about americans have liver with normal vitamin reserve preach nutrient reserves students and tell them measure them their patients but for vitamin only liver biopsy autopsy data will tell you how much somebody has stored can tell very easily someone has overfilled his her liver with vitamin measuring the serium retinol level levels above are highly suggestive that you have filled your liver with vitamin and time stop taking retinol the normal range serum retinol will hypervitaminosis diagnosed with serum retinol level higher interpretation diagnostic test wallach little brown series book this level vitamin blood means that medical attention necessary due vitamin toxicity weinsier and morgan take much more conservative approach vitamin toxicity than does wallach you will see later this post between and you should have plenty warning that time eliminate the retinol from your diet headache redness the skin hair loss joint pain tell all students that will use vitamin their practice that they had better monitor the serum retinol level and stop when there are clear signs that the liver full you will never really know the patient needs the vitamin because you can not measure the pool liver but you will always know when time stop just like those vitamin for pms studies beta carotene can taken fill your liver with retinol and you will never have worry about toxicity because the conversion beta carotene retinol that occurs both your gut and your liver will slow down stops the liver and slows down the gut when your liver full retinol but taking beta carotene the source retinol takes very long time fill the liver seen estimates years you are the that only has much you were born with your liver one other problem with beta carotene you have zinc deficit you will not convert much beta carotene retinol the gut the liver because the enxzyme that does this conversion requires zinc addition the release retinol from the liver zinc dependent process zinc deficit will cause vitamin deficit even your liver has plenty vitamin now what does vitamin cancer and infection protection the body uses vitamin retinol for many different things vision the first nailed down and where you see overt clinical pathology uses the aldehyde retinal and alcohol retinol form vitamin reproduction uses the retinol form and some retinal infection and cancer protection uses retinoic acid how you convert retinol which your white blood cells and the mucosal cells get from blood retinoic acid you use enzymes one which requires vitamin this why pauling has tried pull the title anti infection vitamin away from vitamin vitamin does play role infection interferon production for example but biggest role the conversion retinol retinoic acid you increase your intake vitamin you will increase your formation retinoic acid but retinoic acid can not converted back retinol retinal can and once formed used and then lost the body this why the nrc group wanted increase both vitamin and vitamin rda most people taking large amounts vitamin really think that they are helping themselves they don have much vitamin their liver and they are not also increasing their intake vitamin they actually themselves more harm than good retinoic acid functions white blood cells promote antibody formation the mucus membrane the main factor promoting good mucus production and good epithelial cell barrier prevent infectious agents from entering the blood system the mucus membrane referred the first line defense against infection for cancer retinoic acid has been shown act cell brake counteracts the effect cell promoters which stimulate cells divide cancer has two distinct steps dna alteration and cell promotion for cells that normally divide all the time promoters are not that important but for lung and breast tissue which does not normally divide promoters are real important the malignant process this the major reason why the nci has many different clinical trials progress using retinol and beta carotene chronic infection irritation the mucus membranes signal that vitamin may not adequate tell students that any patient who walks into their office with complaint chronic infection has worked for vitamin along with the other factors that medicine already has list causes for chronic infection drive this home course the osteopathic college tulsa when teach the allopathic medical school tulsa branch campus and when give cme lectures dark adaptation the best clinical test for vitamin status since night vision impacted when liver reverves drop retinol the serum level retinol can also used but does not drop until liver reserves drop below asking patient they have trouble seeing night good initial screen cataracts are ruled out one study done spanish americans where serum retinol levels were measured the sample population had serum retinol level below more studies are done serum retinol levels population groups the that have had history high infection rates will probably see much stonger correlation between infection incidence rates and low serum retinol levels what weinsier and morgan have say about vitamin here are excerpts from their book vitamin functions vision the forrm retinol necessay for growth and differentation epithelial tissue and required for reproduction embryonic development and bone growth protein calorie malnutrition and zinc deficiency may impair the absorption transport and metabolism vitamin retinaldehyde converted retinoic acid which has biological activity growth and cell diferentiation but not reproduction vision the most common procedure evaluate vitamin status measure the retinol level plasma serum the normal range for vitamin content for child lower values are indicators deficiency depleted body stores serum levels greater than are indicative toxic levels vitamin dark adaptation tests and electroretinogram measurements are also useful but difficult perform young children rapidly proliferating tissues are sensitive vitamin deficiency and may revert undifferentiated state the bronchorespiratory tract skin genitourinary system gastrointestinal tract and sweat glands are adversely affected daily intake more than about retinol not advised and chronic use amounts over can result dry and itching skin desquamation erythematous dermatitis hair loss joint pain chapped lips hyperostois bony depositis headaches anorexia edema and fatigue they recommend retinol via injection children for vitamin deficiency but not discuss treatment for adults their toxic serum retinol level very conservative recommend that students try adults that are having problems with chronic infection they have rule out zinc deficit first getting rbc zinc run their clinical lab can run tell them what weinsier and morgan suggest give them the zinc along with the vitamin per day toxicity should not problem and you will not have worry about pulling the patient into the office regular basis run serum retinol both elaine and jon found doctors who used much higher dose vitamin recall that the pms papers were using vitamin don suggest that students use these high doses you wanted fill the liver fast part clinical trial and were monitoring the serum retinol level then you would okay but knowledge the vitamin literature suggests that for patients with demonstrated vitamin deficit dark adapatation test serum retinol will provide good and steady improvement long zinc and vitamin status are good without having worry about toxicity they want get more agressive fine they follow advise check the serum retinol but vitamin retinol should never given high dose women who could become pregnant since vitamin shows teratogenicity towards the human fetus the dose needed show this effect the developing fetus retinol per day beta carotene will never have this effect the human fetus could just taking beta carotene instead retinol supplements help yes but the effect will take long time develop advise use retinol fill the liver and then switch beta carotene keep full vitamin probably one nutrient that better off left prescription doctors

able diagnose illnesses all over the body the two questions ask any alternative therapist are how does work what evidence there the answer question takes little knowledge medicine evaluate don know about iridology but read book reflexology which remarkably similar notion except that the organs the body are mapped onto the soles the feet there are supposed channels running down the body carrying information energy some sort anatomists have found such structures always beware the words channel and energy any spiel put out alternative practitioner the answer question rather simpler all they have anecdotal evidence then forget ask for referreed papers mainstream medical journals ignore any bull about the conspiracy rich doctors suppressing alternative practitioners studies are done and papers are published some them are even positive the word licensed the flyer interesting one licensed whom for what quite possible that the herbology real and requires license you can kill someone

keep the antibody levels high chronic overstimulation the immune response can lead immunosupression but this rare and very unlikely occur children does taking antibiotics regular basis have any

debated topic the medical community with most physicians seeming discount any health effects chronic antibiotic use view that not support how does one tell child more susceptible illness than normal and what does one about chronic infection adult child needs worked opinion but most physicians feel that chronic infection child normal because both exposure and lack prior immunity many infectious diseases not share this view and there are some physicians who also suspect that diet plays big role infection frequency and severity exposure infectious agent does not have result severe infection strong immune response can minimize the length time needed deal with the infection well the symptoms associated with the infection there any way build immunity and resistance there are five major nutrients that are responsible for good strong immune response infectious agents they are protein vitamin vitamin iron and zinc the american diet not low protein this rarely problem but vitamin vitamin iron and zinc are often low and this lack adequate pool nutrient reserve can impair the immune response iron know low most kids vitamin there are distinct biochemical tests that can run check the status each these nutrients patient who having problem with chronic severe infection serum ferritin for iron status dark adaptation for vitamin status red blood cell zinc for zinc status and

nose frequently and give her dorcol dimetapp night she can have good rest thanks some suggestions from the net that about all the care she needs from try very hard keep her off antibiotics twice her ped gave choice decide whether she would have antibiotics waited just long enough days see that she fought the illness off understand that you don have much choice the child pain and high fever does

someone from the company had told them take great care clean the infrared window the end the probe with alcohol from time time she demonstrated this prior reading temperature and managed get reading within degree the oral temperature took home before driving the office have also noticed tha some nurses click the button then remove the probe immediately this causes wrong readings experience you

would created the radar imaging the dish shaped communications antennae were also made one meter larger properly transmit this information earth atop the buses where landers were usually placed were installed the meter foot kilogram pound polyus side looking radar antennae the radar system possibly terrain imaging version the nuclear powered satellites used the soviets for earth ocean surveillance would able map venus surface resolution one two kilometers miles the soviet probes imaging parameters were vast improvement over the united states pioneer venus orbiter which could reveal objects smaller than kilometers miles diameter and while the veneras resolution was comparable that similar observations made the meter foot arecibo radio telescope the island puerto rico the orbiters would examining the northern pole venus this region was unobtainable either arecibo pioneer venus and appeared contain number potentially interesting geological features worthy investigation october after interplanetary journey million kilometers million miles and two mid course corrections venera fired its braking rockets over venus place itself polar orbit kilometers miles around the planet completing one revolution every twenty four hours venera followed suit four days later the twin probes thus became venus first polar circling spacecraft radar operations began october for venera and october for venera for sixteen minutes every orbit over the north pole the probes would make radar sweep the surface kilometers ninety miles wide and nine thousand kilometers miles long the craft would then head out the highest part their orbits over the south pole recharge their batteries and transmit the data back two large soviet antennae earth each strip information took eight hours process computer the end their main missions july the veneras had mapped million square kilometers million square miles thirty percent the entire planet venera and revealed that venus has surface geology more complex than shown pioneer venus the late numerous hills mountains ridges valleys and plains spread across the landscape many them apparently formed lava from erupting volcanoes the last one billion years planetary terms this makes the venerean surface rather young hundreds craters were detected well the largest which had have been created meteorites planetoids would better term here least fourteen kilometers miles across due venus very dense atmosphere there were some disagreements between and soviet scientists the origins certain surface features for example the probes owners declared that the kilometer mile wide crater the summit meter foot high maxwell montes the tallest mountain the planet was the result meteorite impact american scientists the other hand felt the crater was proof that maxwell was huge volcano sitting the northern continent ishtar terra any event the decided wait making verdicts about venus until the arrival their own radar probe scheduled for later the decade originally named the venus orbiting imaging radar voir its initial design was scaled back and the craft was redesig nated the venus radar mapper vrm eventually the machine would called magellan after the portuguese navigator ferdinand magellan circa this vehicle would map the entire planet even finer detail than the veneras for the time however the soviet probes maintained that distinction radar imaging was not the only ability the veneras bolted next the polyus radar antenna were the omega altimeter and the fourier infrared spectrometer the latter for measuring the world temperatures the majority the areas covered registered about five hundred degrees celsius degrees fahrenheit but few locations were two hundred degrees hotter possibly indicating current volcanic activity the probes also found that the clouds over the poles were five eight kilometers three miles lower than the equator contrast the polar air above sixty kilometers thirty six miles altitude was five twenty degrees warmer than the equatorial atmosphere similar heights when the main mapping mission ended july there were plans for least one the veneras radar image the surface more southernly latitudes unfortunately this idea did not come pass the orbiters may not have possessed enough attitude control gas perform the operation venera and ceased transmission march leaving the soviet institute radiotechnology and electronics with six hundred kilometers miles radar data tape sort into atlas twenty seven maps the northern hemisphere venus venus balloon for years the thick atmosphere venus had been tempting target scientists who wished explore the planet mantle air with balloon borne instruments professor jacques blamont the french space agency centre national etudes spatiales cnes had proposed such idea far back only have joint french soviet balloon mission canceled nevertheless late the year such dreams would eventually come true when two proton rockets were sent skyward december and the soviet union provided western observers with the first clear full views the booster which had been launching every soviet venus probe since this was but one many firsts for the complex mission the unmanned probes launched into space that december were named vega and contraction the words venera and gallei gallei being the russian word for halley not only did the spacecraft have more than one mission perform they also had more than one celestial objective explore namely the comet halley this famous periodic traveler was making its latest return the inner regions the solar system since its last visit since was widely believed that comets are the icy remains from the formation the solar system five billion years ago scientists around the world gave high priority exploring one the few such bodies which actually come close earth most comets linger the cold and dark outer fringes the solar system some like halley are perturbed various forces and fall towards the sun where they circle for millennia spewing out ice and debris for millions kilometers from the warmth each solar encounter the soviet union along with the european space agency esa and japan institute space and astronautical science isas did not wish miss out this first opportunity human history make close examination halley the esa would using the cylindrical giotto probe make dangerously close photographic flyby the comet while japan first deep space craft sakigake pioneer and suisei comet would view halley from much safer distance scientists the united states also desired study the comet from the vantage space probe one time envisioning vessel powered solar sails ion engines however government budget cuts nasa canceled the american efforts the would have make primarily with earth based observations and the sharing data from other nations though instrument named the dust counter and mass analyzer ducma designed chicago university professor john simpson was added the soviet mission may the soviets answer halley were the vegas instead building entirely new craft for the mission the soviets decided modify their venera bus design encounter the comet while performing advanced venus mission along the way vega and reached venus the buses would drop off one lander balloon each and use the mass the shrouded planet swing them towards comet halley much the probe mariner used venus flyby mercury eleven years earlier the soviet craft would then head halley helping pinpoint the location the comet erupting nucleus for the giotto probe dive only kilometers miles away march planned the two vegas arrived venus june vega released its payload first the ninth day the month the lander making two day descent towards the planet the craft touched the upper atmosphere the morning june sixty one kilometers miles above the venerean surface small container was released the lander which produced parachute kilometers miles altitude thus the first balloon probe ever explore venus had successfully arrived one kilometer after the opening the parachute helium gas was pumped into the teflon coated plastic balloon inflating diameter meters feet dangling tether thirteen meters feet below was the instrument package properly known aerostat the top part the kilogram pound aerostat consisted cone which served antenna and tether attachment point the balloon beneath was the transmitter electronics and instruments connected the bottom was nephelometer for measuring cloud particles the aerostat was painted with special white finish keep bay the corroding mist sulfuric acid which permeated the planet atmosphere the vega balloon was dropped into the night side venus just north the equator scientists were concerned that the gas bag would burst the heat daylight they placed the darkened hemisphere give the craft much time possible return data this action necessitated that the landers come down the dark well effectively removing the camera systems used previous missions the author wonders though they could have used floodlights similar the ones attached venera and when soviet scientists had thought the planet surface was enshrouded perpetual twilight due the permanently thick cloud cover the first balloon transmitted for hours right into the day hemisphere before its lithium batteries failed covering kilometers miles the threat bursting the day heat did not materialize the vega balloon was stationed kilometer mile altitude after dropping ballast fifty kilometers thirty miles for this was considered the most active the three main cloud layers reported pioneer venus indeed the balloon was pushed across the planet speeds kilometers miles per hour strong vertical winds bobbed the craft and down two three hundred meters feet through most the journey the layer air temperature averaged forty degrees celsius degrees fahrenheit and pressure was mere earth atmosphere the nephelometer could find clear regions the surrounding clouds early the first balloon flight the vega lander was already headed towards the venerean surface both landers were equipped with soil drill and analyzer similar the ones carried venera and however vega would become unable report the composition the ground its landing site rusalka planitia the mermaid plain north aphrodite terra while still ten fifteen minutes away from landing timer malfunction caused the drill accidentally begin its programmed activity sixteen kilometers miles above the surface there was neither any way shut off the instrument before touchdown nor reactivate after landing this was unfortunate not only for the general loss data but also for the fact that most venus was covered with such smooth low level lava plains and had never before been directly examined nevertheless the surface temperature and pressure was calculated degrees celsius degrees fahrenheit and earth atmospheres respectively during the lander minutes ground transmissions large amount background infrared radiation was also recorded the site had been done when the drills and cameras venera and had failed december the soviets focused the data returned during the lander plunge through the atmosphere the french soviet malachite mass spectrometer detected sulfur chlorine and possibly phosphorus the sulfur possibly from active volcanoes which gives the venerean clouds their yellowish color the sigma gas chromatograph found that every cubic meter air between altitude and kilometers and miles contained one milligram grain sulfuric acid the vega data the overall structure the cloud decks appeared odds with the information from pioneer venus the case was made even stronger the fact that vega results nearly matched its twin the vegas found only two main cloud layers instead the three reported the probes the layers were three five kilometers miles thick altitudes and kilometers and miles the clouds persisted like thin fog until clearing altitude kilometers miles much lower than the readings one possibility for the discrepan cies may have been radical structural changes the venerean air over the last seven years when the lander and balloon finally went silent the last functioning part the vega mission the flyby bus sailed for million kilometer million mile journey around the sun become the first probe meet comet halley march the bus made kilometer mile pass the dark and icy visitor before traveling interplanetary space the soviets had accomplished their first mission two celestial bodies with one space vessel june vega released its lander balloon payload for two day fall towards venus like its duplicate the vega balloon radioed information back the twenty antennae tracking earth for hours before battery failure the morning side the planet during its kilometer mile flight over venus the second balloon entered rather still environment which became less twenty hours into the mission after hours mission time the air became even more turbulent for further eight hours when the balloon passed over five kilometer three mile mountain the continent aphrodite terra powerful downdraft pulled the craft kilometers miles towards the surface temperature sensors the vega balloon reported that the air layer was moving through was consistently degrees celsius degrees fahrenheit cooler than the area explored the vega balloon this was corroborated the vega lander passed through the balloon level positive indications lightning were made either balloon and the second aerostat nephelometer failed function the vega lander touched down the northern edge aphrodite terra western arm the fifteenth june kilometers miles southeast vega the lander resting place was smoother than thought indicating either very ancient and worn surface relatively young one covered fresh lava the soil drill was working order and reported rock type known anorthosite troctolite rare earth but present luna highlands this rock rich aluminum and silicon but lacking iron and magnesium high degree sulfur was also present the soil the air around vega measured degrees celsius degrees fahrenheit and earth atmospheres essentially typical day night venus far above the vega lander its carrier bus sped past venus distance kilometers miles and followed its twin comet halley making closer flyby march just kilometers miles both probes helped reveal that the comet very dark and irregular shaped mass about fourteen kilometers miles across rotating once every hours give take three hours since both vega craft were still functioning after their halley encounters soviet scientists considered option send the probes other celestial objects one prime target was the near earth planetoid adonis which vega could pass distance six million kilometers million miles sadly the soviets had back out the opportunity become the first nation fly spacecraft past planetoid when was discovered that there was not enough maneuvering fuel the probe reach adonis planned vega and were quietly shut down early future plans diverted the impressive vega mission had given some scientists numerous ideas and hope for even more ambitious expeditions the second world from the sun one example was the vesta mission planned for the early this soviet french collaboration called for the launch multiple probes single proton rocket either the craft would first swing venus and drop off several landers and balloon probes the aerostats would designed survive the planet corrosive atmosphere for one month large improvement over the vega balloons two days the mission would then head out investigate several planetoids and comets including possible landing vesta thus the mission name the most reflective main belt planetoid seen from earth unfortunately for venus exploration plans began change the soviet union the soviets decided reroute the vesta mission the red planet mars instead venus keeping the comet and planetoid aspects intact this time the soviet space program interest was focusing mars already under construction was entirely new probe design called phobos two members this class were planned leave earth and orbit mars the next year phobos and would then place the first instruments mars largest moon phobos all this was prelude even more advanced mars expeditions including balloon probes rovers soil sample return craft and eventually human explorers the early twenty first century the environment venus was just too hostile for any serious consideration human colonization the near future but things began look bleak for soviet venus and mars exploration both phobos probes failed complete their missions one losing contact the way the red planet and the other going silent mars orbit just one week before the planned moon landing march plan was devised for venus orbiter drop eight ten penetrators around the planet several years later the mission launch date was moved the year and has now been put indefinite hold other official soviet missions venus have since been put forth sad commentary after twenty five years continuous robotic exploration the planet during the late drastic political and economic change was taking over the soviet union president mikhail gorbachev began open his nation the benefits increased cooperation with the rest the nations particularly those the west while the culture became less oppressive than the past the economy was taking very rough ride also underwent the effects free market these effects hit everywhere including the space program missions all levels were cut back the soviets began making almost desperate attempts cooperate with other space faring nations either keep their remaining programs alive just make money early was reported that the soviets were offering for sale several fully equipped veneras they had storage for the price million dollars each incredibly low price for any planetary probe nation took them the bargain meanwhile the united states was gearing for new venus missions their own magellan and galileo the reactivated their long dormant planetary exploration with the launch the space shuttle atlantis may aboard the shuttle was the magellan spacecraft combination spare parts from other probes designed make the most detailed and complete radar mapping venus history when magellan reached the second world august would able map almost the entire planet down resolution meters feet surpassing the abilities venera and the interim another american probe was launched from space shuttle which would make quick flyby venus its way orbit the giant planet jupiter october the shuttle atlantis released its second unmanned planetary probe into space named galileo after the famous italian astronomer who discovered the probe primary target major moons the absence powerful enough

have been laid out for further journeys venus scien tists the have talked space scientists the former soviet union now the commonwealth independent states since january cooperative effort launch new venera lander missions within the next decade japan india and the esa have also considered their own venus missions the next few decades february nasa came with several new venus projects part their discovery program for launching inexpensive probes throughout the solar system for venus two missions were selected for further study venus multiprobe mission involving the landing fourteen small probes over one hemisphere measure winds air temperature and pressure and the venus composition probe designed study venus atmosphere while descending through the thick air with the aid parachute much the soviets had done since final project decisions will made humans venus will human ever able stand the surface venus present the lead melting temperatures and crushing air pressure would threatening any earth life not protected something even tougher than venera lander plans have been looked into changing the environment venus itself into something more like earth however should noted that any such undertaking will require the removal much the thick carbon dioxide atmosphere major reduction surface heat and the ability speed the planet rotation rate something bit faster than once every earth days such project may take centuries not millennia the meantime efforts should made better understand venus its exists today still have yet fully know how world seemingly similar earth many important ways became instead such deadly place will earth ever suffer this fate perhaps venus holds the answers such answers may best found through international cooperation including the nation

assessment process and the design approach discussions management options and operations concepts also were held the design teams then presented the three options under study option modular buildup pete priest presented the option priest said the team working define station that meets cost goals and has identified three distinct phases evolution power station human tended and permanent presence the team will define the minimum capability needed achieve each phase the total cost each phase and the achievable capability for budget levels the option uses current simplified freedom hardware where cost effective and considering other existing systems such the called bus spacecraft the orbiter and spacelab the power station capability could achieved flights with freedom photo voltaic

degrees and consist extended duration orbiter spacelab combination docked truss segment with photo voltaic arrays providing power human tended capability would achieved flights and add truss segments and the lab permanent human presence capability would achieved flights with two orbiters providing habitation and assured crew return two fault tolerance achieved flights would build out the other section truss with another set modules thermal control and propulsion systems the freedom derived configuration could achieve international complete state with flights three more flights bring the habitat module third array and two assured crew return vehicles acrv would complete the permanent human capability with international stage griffin told the redesign advisory committee that

pacific publishers portland oregon pages indexed hardcover the universe motion contains final solutions most all astrophysical mysteries this book volume iii revised and enlarged edition the structure the physical universe volume nothing but motion and volume the basic properties matter most books and journal articles the subject astrophysics are bristling with integrals partial differentials and other fancy mathematics this book contrast mathematics conspicuous its absence except for some relatively simple formulas imbedded the text larson emphasizes concepts and declares that mathematical agreement with theory does not guarantee its conceptual validity dewey larson was retired engineer with bachelor science degree engineering science from oregon state university developed the theory described his books while trying find way mathematically calculate the properties chemical compounds based only the elements they contain the universe motion describes the astrophysical portions larson consistent integrated comprehensive general unified theory the physical universe kind grand unified field theory that orthodox physicists and astro physicists claim looking for built two postulates about the physical and mathematical nature space and time the physical universe composed entirely one component motion existing three dimensions discrete units and with two reciprocal aspects space and time the physical universe conforms the relations ordinary commutative mathematics its primary magnitudes are absolute and its geometry euclidean from these two postulates larson was able build complete theoretical universe from photons and subatomic particles the giant elliptical galaxies combining the concept inward and outward scalar motions with translational vibrational rotational and rotational vibrational motions each step the development was able match parts his theoretical universe with corresponding parts the real physical universe including even things not yet discovered for example his book first predicted the existence exploding galaxies several years before astronomers started finding them they are necessary consequence his comprehensive theory and when quasars were discovered had related explanation ready for those also result his theory which called the reciprocal system larson totally rejected many the sacred doctrines orthodox physicists and astrophysicists including black holes neutron stars degenerate matter quantum wave mechanics applied atomic structure nuclear physics general relativity relativistic mass increases relativistic doppler shifts nuclear fusion stars and the big bang all which considered nothing more than mathematical fantasies was very critical the hoc assumptions uncertainty principles solutions principle other way declarations etc used maintain them the universe motion divided into chapters begins with description how galaxies are built from the gravitational attraction between globular star clusters which are formed from intergalactic gas and dust clouds that accumulate from the decay products cosmic rays coming from the anti matter half the physical universe galaxy formation from the mythical big bang big mystery orthodox astronomers then goes describe life cycles stars and how binary and multiple star systems and solar systems result from type supernova explosions single stars several chapters are devoted quasars which according larson are densely packed clusters stars that have been ejected from the central bulges exploding galaxies and are actually traveling faster than the speed light although most that speed away from time astronomers and astrophysicists who run against observations that contradict their theories would find larson explanations quite valuable considered with open mind for example they used believe that gamma ray bursts originated from pulsars which exist primarily the plane central bulge our galaxy but the new gamma ray telescope earth orbit observed that the bursts come from all directions uniformly and not correspond with any visible objects except for few cases directional coincidence larson explanation that the gamma ray bursts originate from supernova explosions the anti matter half the physical universe which larson calls the cosmic sector because the anti matter universe exists reciprocal relation our material universe with the speed light the boundary between them and has three dimensions time and only one dimension space the bursts can pop into our material universe anywhere seemingly random larson heavily quotes paraphrases statements from books journal articles and leading physicists and astronomers this book them are superscripted with numbers identifying entries the reference list the end the book for example quote from the book astronomy the cosmic journey william hartmann says our hopes understanding all stars would brighten could explain exactly how binary and multiple stars form unfortunately cannot larson

atmosphere have the concentration oxygen does the naive answer photosynthesis but this clearly incomplete photosynthesis itself can make the atmosphere oxygenated the oxygen produced consumed when the plants decay are eaten what needed photosynthesis plus some mechanism sequester some fraction the resulting reduced material earth this mechanism burial seafloor sediments organic matter mostly from oceanic sources however this burial requires continental sediments the deep ocean the burial rate slow that most material consumed before can sequestered this suggests that planet without large oceans

ratio about mass ratio about plus lots more and then gave his thoughts the formation pluto charon his idea that there were lots and lots small planetesimals the outer solar system with masses distributed power law some kind over time the planetesimals accreted into larger bodies most got scattered out the solar system close encounters with jupiter and saturn but many accreted into the gas giants especially uranus and neptune large planetesimal was captured neptune call triton captured how perhaps collision with smaller already existing neptunian moon perhaps very close passage through neptune atmosphere mondo aerobraking notes that the two recently discovered kuiper belt objects and plus chiron and pholus are all about the same mass and identifies this group one accretion down from the larger bodies triton and pluto charon pluto charon thinks formed when impacting body hit proto pluto knocking some material into ring around pluto which later accreted charon similar ideas about the formation earth moon there good evidence from spectra that the surfaces pluto and charon are very different pluto has methane frost charon doesn which can used evidence for the impact theory believes that there may around pluto chiron sized objects remaining relatively stable dynamical zone just outside neptune orbit beyond and are the first members this population found his model note that such bodies will very dark since their surfaces are covered with methane frost will have photolyzed into very dark long chain hydrocarbons now the reason that pluto has such high albedo around think that its surface warms just enough around perihelion sublimate and when the atmosphere freezes out again thirty years later forms bright new frost any bodies much farther away than are going very hard see hope haven made any errors the transcription you see howling mistake undoubtedly mine not his the way one the top guns behind the pluto fast flyby mission think and said that the current

could have ever supported atmosphere interested knowing what our geology environmental sciences friends think for human tolerances the best example human endurance terms altitude low atmospheric pressure and lower oxygen partial pressure opinion the scaling everest without oxygen assistance this was accomplished team mountaineers who trained high altitudes for quite awhile think few months and then were flown helicopter from that training altitude the equivalent altitude mount everest where they began the ascent our planet highest peak without oxygen tanks this quite feat physiological endurance because you tried feet and exert ourselves would probably pass out get altitude sick and could even die from cerebral edema this the limit low pressure high pressure situations would limited the duration time which takes slowly acclimate higher pressure skin divers would know alot about high pressure situations and could tell you about how they safely make deep dives without getting the bends some military experiments have put people under several atmospheres pressure not sure what the high limit was because the papers aren front usually certain point the nitrogen the air becomes toxic the body and you start acting idiotic divers call this nitrogen narcosis those afflicted can very dangerous and irrational things like taking off diving mask and oxygen tank order talk fish feet under water hope any diving folk can elaborate this matter not diving expert mars cannot support human life without pressurization because the atmosphere too thin our earth atmospheric density addition the mars atmosphere mostly carbon dioxide basically you would need pressure suit there you die from the low pressure interesting huh ken khayash hsc usc edu sci.space rocket types the other week saw program about the american space industry and nasa said that the they developed rocket that used ions nuclear particles for propolsion the government however didn give them billion for the developement full scale rocket did anybody see this program not has anybody heard the particle propolsion system thanx glen balmer sci.space hst servicing mission scheduled for days article apr den mmc com zwork starfighter den mmc com michael corvin writes regarding the feasability retrieving the hst for repair and relaunching caution speculation mode engaged there another consideration that hasn been mentioned yet expect that retrieving hst would involve damaging considerably order return its cradle the cargo bay most the deployed items antennas and especially the solar arays probably are not retractable into their fully stowed position even hand they would have removed the astronauts the only advantage that this might yield that could put new panels that don ring due thermal cycle stresses also expect that has been discussed the landing loads the hst optics structure big issue but that the reentry loads are much less can the moveable optical components even caged assume that they were caged for launch would nice someone here from the hst program was talking instead all the speculation that going here from what understand from frank six the marshall space flight center there insrmountable problem bringing hst back was designed that way begin with also understanding that the solar arrays will one the items replaced this mission the originals were built brit aerospace

small world have gazed upon the cosmic ocean for untold thousands years ancient astronomers observed points light that appeared move among the stars they called these objects planets meaning wanderers and named them after roman deities jupiter king the gods mars the god war mercury messenger the gods venus the god love and beauty and saturn father jupiter and god agriculture the stargazers also observed comets with sparkling tails and meteors shooting stars apparently falling from the sky science flourished during the european renaissance fundamental physical laws governing planetary motion were discovered and the orbits the planets around the sun were calculated the century astronomers pointed new device called the telescope the heavens and made startling discoveries but the years since have amounted golden age solar system exploration advancements rocketry after world war enabled our machines break the grip earth gravity and travel the moon and other planets the united states has sent automated spacecraft then human crewed expeditions explore the moon our automated machines have orbited and landed venus and mars explored the sun environment observed comets and made close range surveys while flying past mercury jupiter saturn uranus and neptune these travelers brought quantum leap our knowledge and understanding the solar system through the electronic sight and other senses our automated spacecraft color and complexion have been given worlds that for centuries appeared earth bound eyes fuzzy disks indistinct points light and dozens previously unknown objects have been discovered future historians will likely view these pioneering flights through the solar system some the most remarkable achievements the century automated spacecraft the national aeronautics and space administration nasa automated spacecraft for solar system exploration come many shapes and sizes while they are designed fulfill separate and specific mission objectives the craft share much common each spacecraft consists various scientific instruments selected for particular mission supported basic subsystems for electrical power trajectory and orientation control well for processing data and communicating with earth electrical power required operate the spacecraft instruments and systems nasa uses both solar energy from arrays photovoltaic cells and small nuclear generators power its solar system missions rechargeable batteries are employed for backup and supplemental power imagine that spacecraft has successfully journeyed millions miles through space fly but one time near planet only have its cameras and other sensing instruments pointed the wrong way speeds past the target help prevent such mishap subsystem small thrusters used control spacecraft the thrusters are linked with devices that maintain constant gaze selected stars just earth early seafarers used the stars navigate the oceans spacecraft use stars maintain their bearings space with the subsystem locked onto fixed points reference flight controllers can keep spacecraft scientific instruments pointed the target body and the craft communications antennas pointed toward earth the thrusters can also used fine tune the flight path and speed the spacecraft ensure that target body encountered the planned distance and the proper trajectory between and nasa spacecraft were dispatched study the moon and the solar environment they also scanned the inner planets other than earth mercury venus and mars these three worlds and our own are known the terrestrial planets because they share solid rock composition for the early planetary reconnaissance missions nasa employed highly successful series spacecraft called the mariners their flights helped shape the planning later missions between and seven mariner missions conducted the first surveys our planetary neighbors space all the mariners used solar panels their primary power source the first and the final versions the spacecraft had two wings covered with photovoltaic cells other mariners were equipped with four solar panels extending from their octagonal bodies although the mariners ranged from the mariner venus spacecraft weighing kilograms pounds the mariner mars orbiter weighing kilograms pounds their basic design remained quite similar throughout the program the mariner venus spacecraft for example had originally been backup for the mariner mars flyby the mariner spacecraft sent venus and mercury used components left over from the mariner mars orbiter program nasa launched pioneer jupiter spacecraft interest was shifting four the outer planets jupiter saturn uranus and neptune giant balls dense gas quite different from the terrestrial worlds had already surveyed four nasa spacecraft all two pioneers and two voyagers were sent the tour the outer regions our solar system because the distances involved these travelers took anywhere from months years reach their destinations barring faster spacecraft they will eventually become the first human artifacts journey distant stars because the sun light becomes faint the outer solar system these travelers not use solar power but instead operate electricity generated heat from the decay radioisotopes nasa also developed highly specialized spacecraft revisit our neighbors mars and venus the middle and late twin viking landers were equipped serve seismic and weather stations and biology laboratories two advanced orbiters descendants the mariner craft carried the viking landers from earth and then studied martian features from above two drum shaped pioneer spacecraft visited venus the pioneer venus orbiter was equipped with radar instrument that allowed see through the planet dense cloud cover study surface features the pioneer venus multiprobe carried four probes that were dropped through the clouds the probes and the main body all which contained scientific instruments radioed information about the planet atmosphere during their descent toward the surface new generation automated spacecraft including magellan galileo ulysses mars observer the comet rendezvous asteroid flyby craf and cassini being developed and sent out into the solar system make detailed examinations that will increase our understanding our neighborhood and our own planet the sun discussion the objects the solar system must start with the sun the sun dwarfs the other bodies representing approximately percent all the mass the solar system all the planets moons asteroids comets dust and gas add only about percent this percent represents the material left over from the sun formation one hundred and nine earths would required fit across the sun disk and its interior could hold over million earths star the sun generates energy through the process fusion the temperature the sun core million degrees celsius million degrees fahrenheit and the pressure there billion times earth air pressure sea level the sun surface temperature degrees celsius degrees fahrenheit seems almost chilly compared its core temperature the solar core hydrogen can fuse into helium producing energy the sun also produces strong magnetic field and streams charged particles both extending far beyond the planets the sun appears have been active for billion years and has enough fuel for another five billion years the end its life the sun will start fuse helium into heavier elements and begin swell ultimately growing large that will swallow earth after billion years red giant will suddenly collapse into white dwarf the final end product star like ours may take trillion years cool off completely many spacecraft have explored the sun environment but none have gotten any closer its surface than approximately two thirds the distance from earth the sun pioneers the pioneer venus orbiter voyagers and and other spacecraft have all sampled the solar environment the ulysses spacecraft launched october joint solar mission nasa and the european space agency after using jupiter gravity change its trajectory ulysses will fly over the sun polar regions during and and will perform wide range studies using nine onboard scientific instruments are fortunate that the sun exactly the way were different almost any way life would almost certainly never have developed earth mercury obtaining the first close views mercury was the primary objective the mariner spacecraft launched november from kennedy space center florida after journey nearly five months which included flyby venus the spacecraft passed within kilometers miles the solar system innermost planet march until mariner little was known about mercury even the best telescopic views from earth showed mercury indistinct object lacking any surface detail the planet close the sun that usually lost solar glare when the planet visible earth horizon just after sunset before dawn obscured the haze and dust our atmosphere only radar telescopes gave any hint mercury surface conditions prior the voyage mariner the photographs mariner radioed back earth revealed ancient heavily cratered surface closely resembling our own moon the pictures also showed huge cliffs crisscrossing the planet these apparently were created when mercury interior cooled and shrank buckling the planet crust the cliffs are high kilometers miles and long kilometers miles instruments mariner discovered that mercury has weak magnetic field and trace atmosphere trillionth the density earth atmosphere and composed chiefly argon neon and helium when the planet orbit takes closest the sun surface temperatures range from degrees celsius degrees fahrenheit mercury sunlit side degrees celsius degrees fahrenheit the dark side this range surface temperature degrees celsius degrees fahrenheit the largest for single body the solar system mercury literally bakes and freezes the same time days and nights are long mercury the combination slow rotation relative the stars earth days and rapid revolution around the sun earth days means that one mercury solar day takes earth days two mercury years the time takes the innermost planet complete two orbits around the sun mercury appears have crust light silicate rock like that earth scientists believe mercury has heavy iron rich core making slightly less than half its volume that would make mercury core larger proportionally than the moon core those any the planets after the initial mercury encounter mariner made two additional flybys september and march before control gas used orient the spacecraft was exhausted and the mission was concluded each flyby took place the same local mercury time when the identical half the planet was illuminated result still have not seen one half the planet surface venus veiled dense cloud cover venus our nearest planetary neighbor was the first planet explored the mariner spacecraft launched august was the first more than dozen successful american and soviet missions study the mysterious planet spacecraft flew orbited venus plunged into the atmosphere gently landed venus surface romantic myths and speculations about our neighbor were laid rest december mariner passed within kilometers miles venus and became the first spacecraft scan another planet onboard instruments measured venus for minutes mariner launched june flew much closer the planet passing within kilometers miles venus the second american flyby mariner instruments measured the planet magnetic field ionosphere radiation belts and temperatures its way mercury mariner flew venus and transmitted ultraviolet pictures earth showing cloud circulation patterns the venusian atmosphere the spring and summer two spacecraft were launched further unravel the mysteries venus december the same year the pioneer venus orbiter became the first spacecraft placed orbit around the planet five days later the five separate components making the second spacecraft the pioneer venus multiprobe entered the venusian atmosphere different locations above the planet the four small independent probes and the main body radioed atmospheric data back earth during their descent toward the surface although designed examine the atmosphere one the probes survived its impact with the surface and continued transmit data for another hour venus resembles earth size physical composition and density more closely than any other known planet however spacecraft have discovered significant differences well for example venus rotation west east retrograde backward compared the east west spin earth and most the other planets approximately percent venus atmosphere times dense earth carbon dioxide the principal constituent earth atmosphere nitrogen venus atmosphere acts like greenhouse permitting solar radiation reach the surface but trapping the heat that would ordinarily radiated back into space result the planet average surface temperature degrees celsius degrees fahrenheit hot enough melt lead radio altimeter the pioneer venus orbiter provided the first means seeing through the planet dense cloud cover and determining surface features over almost the entire planet nasa magellan spacecraft launched may has been orbit around venus since august the spacecraft uses radar mapping techniques provide ultrahigh resolution images the surface magellan has revealed landscape dominated volcanic features faults and impact craters huge areas the surface show evidence multiple periods lava flooding with flows lying top previous ones elevated region named ishtar terra lava filled basin large the united states one end this plateau sits maxwell montes mountain the size mount everest scarring the mountain flank kilometer mile wide kilometer mile deep impact crater named cleopatra almost all features venus are named for women maxwell montes alpha regio and beta regio are the exceptions craters survive venus for perhaps million years because there water and very little wind erosion extensive fault line networks cover the planet probably the result the same crustal flexing that produces plate tectonics earth but venus the surface temperature sufficient weaken the rock which cracks just about everywhere preventing the formation major plates and large earthquake faults like the san andreas fault california venus predominant weather pattern high altitude high speed circulation clouds that contain sulfuric acid speeds reaching high kilometers miles per hour the clouds circle the planet only four earth days the circulation the same direction west east venus slow rotation earth days whereas earth winds blow both directions west east and east west six alternating bands venus atmosphere serves simplified laboratory for the study our weather earth viewed from space our world distinguishing characteristics are its blue waters brown and green land masses and white clouds are enveloped ocean air consisting percent nitrogen percent oxygen and percent other constituents the only planet the solar system known harbor life earth orbits the sun average distance million kilometers million miles earth the third planet from the sun and the fifth largest the solar system with diameter just few hundred kilometers larger than that venus our planet rapid spin and molten nickel iron core give rise extensive magnetic field which along with the atmosphere shields from nearly all the harmful radiation coming from the sun and other stars earth atmosphere protects from meteors well most which burn before they can strike the surface active geological processes have left evidence the pelting earth almost certainly received soon after formed about billion years ago along with the other newly formed planets was showered space debris the early days the solar system from our journeys into space have learned much about our home planet the first american satellite explorer was launched from cape canaveral florida january and discovered intense radiation zone now called the van allen radiation belts surrounding earth since then other research satellites have revealed that our planet magnetic field distorted into tear drop shape the solar wind the stream charged particles continuously ejected from the sun learned that the magnetic field does not fade off into space but has definite boundaries and now know that our wispy upper atmosphere once believed calm and uneventful seethes with activity swelling day and contracting night affected changes solar activity the upper atmosphere contributes weather and climate earth besides affecting earth weather solar activity gives rise dramatic visual phenomenon our atmosphere when charged particles from the solar wind become trapped earth magnetic field they collide with air molecules above our planet magnetic poles these air molecules then begin glow and are known the auroras the northern and southern lights satellites about kilometers miles out space play major role daily local weather forecasting these watchful electronic eyes warn dangerous storms continuous global monitoring provides vast amount useful data and contributes better understanding earth complex weather systems from their unique vantage points satellites can survey earth oceans land use and resources and monitor the planet health these eyes space have saved countless lives provided tremendous conveniences and shown that may altering our planet dangerous ways the moon the moon earth single natural satellite the first human footsteps alien world were made american astronauts the dusty surface our airless lifeless companion preparation for the human crewed apollo expeditions nasa dispatched the automated ranger surveyor and lunar orbiter spacecraft study the moon between and nasa apollo program left large legacy lunar materials and data six two astronaut crews landed and explored the lunar surface between and carrying back collection rocks and soil weighing total kilograms pounds and consisting more than separate samples from this material and other studies scientists have constructed history the moon that includes its infancy rocks collected from the lunar highlands date about billion years old the first few million years the moon existence were violent that few traces this period remain molten outer layer gradually cooled and solidified into different kinds rock the moon was bombarded huge asteroids and smaller objects some the asteroids were large rhode island delaware and their collisions with the moon created basins hundreds kilometers across this catastrophic bombardment tapered off approximately four billion years ago leaving the lunar highlands covered with huge overlapping craters and deep layer shattered and broken rock heat produced the decay radioactive elements began melt the interior the moon depths about kilometers miles below the surface then for the next million years from about billion years ago lava rose from inside the moon the lava gradually spread out over the surface flooding the large impact basins form the dark areas that galileo galilei astronomer the italian renaissance called maria meaning seas far can tell there has been significant volcanic activity the moon for more than three billion years since then the lunar surface has been altered only micrometeorites the atomic particles from the sun and stars the rare impacts large meteorites and spacecraft and astronauts our astronauts had landed the moon billion years ago they would have seen landscape very similar the one today thousands years from now the footsteps left the apollo crews will remain sharp and clear the origin the moon still mystery four theories attempt explanation the moon formed near earth separate body was torn from earth formed somewhere else and was captured our planet gravity was the result collision between earth and asteroid about the size mars the last theory has some good support but far from certain mars all the planets mars has long been considered the solar system prime candidate for harboring extraterrestrial life astronomers studying the red planet through telescopes saw what appeared straight lines crisscrossing its surface these observations later determined optical illusions led the popular notion that intelligent beings had constructed system irrigation canals the planet when orson welles broadcast radio drama based the science fiction classic war the worlds wells enough people believed the tale invading martians cause near panic another reason for scientists expect life mars had with the apparent seasonal color changes the planet surface this phenomenon led speculation that conditions might support bloom martian vegetation during the warmer months and cause plant life become dormant during colder periods far six american missions mars have been carried out four mariner spacecraft three flying the planet and one placed into martian orbit surveyed the planet extensively before the viking orbiters and landers arrived mariner launched late flew past mars july coming within kilometers miles the surface transmitting earth close pictures the planet the spacecraft found many craters and naturally occurring channels but evidence artificial canals flowing water mariners and followed with their flybys during the summer and returned pictures mariners and showed diversity surface conditions well thin cold dry atmosphere carbon dioxide may the mariner orbiter was launched mission make year long study the martian surface the spacecraft arrived five and half months after lift off only find mars the midst planet wide dust storm that made surface photography impossible for several weeks but after the storm cleared mariner began returning the first pictures these revealed previously unknown martian features including evidence that large amounts water once flowed across the surface etching river valleys and flood plains august and september the viking and spacecraft each consisting orbiter and lander lifted off from kennedy space center the mission was designed answer several questions about the red planet including there life there nobody expected the spacecraft spot martian cities but was hoped that the biology experiments the viking landers would least find evidence primitive life past present viking lander became the first spacecraft successfully touch down another planet when landed july while the united states was celebrating its bicentennial photos sent back from the chryse planitia plains gold showed bleak rusty red landscape panoramic images returned the lander revealed rolling plain littered with rocks and marked rippled sand dunes fine red dust from the martian soil gives the sky salmon hue when viking lander touched down utopia planitia september viewed more rolling landscape than the one seen its predecessor one without visible dunes the results sent back the laboratory each viking lander were inconclusive small samples the red martian soil were tested three different experiments designed detect biological processes while some the test results seemed indicate biological activity later analysis confirmed that this activity was inorganic nature and related the planet soil chemistry there life mars one knows for sure but the viking mission found evidence that organic molecules exist there the viking landers became weather stations recording wind velocity and direction well atmospheric temperature and pressure few weather changes were observed the highest temperature recorded either craft was degrees celsius degrees fahrenheit the viking lander site midsummer the lowest temperature degrees celsius degrees fahrenheit was recorded the more northerly viking lander site during winter near hurricane wind speeds were measured the two martian weather stations during global dust storms but because the atmosphere thin wind force minimal viking lander photographed light patches frost probably water ice during its second winter the planet the martian atmosphere like that venus primarily carbon dioxide nitrogen and oxygen are present only small percentages martian air contains only about much water our air but even this small amount can condense out forming clouds that ride high the atmosphere swirl around the slopes towering volcanoes local patches early morning fog can form valleys there evidence that the past denser martian atmosphere may have allowed water flow the planet physical features closely resembling shorelines gorges riverbeds and islands suggest that great rivers once marked the planet mars has two moons phobos and deimos they are small and irregularly shaped and possess ancient cratered surfaces possible the moons were originally asteroids that ventured too close mars and were captured its gravity the viking orbiters and landers exceeded large margins their design lifetimes and days respectively the first fail was viking orbiter which stopped operating july when leak depleted its attitude control gas viking lander operated until april when was shut down because battery degeneration viking orbiter quit august when the last its attitude control gas was used viking lander ceased functioning november despite the inconclusive results the viking biology experiments know more about mars than any other planet except earth nasa mars observer spacecraft launched september will expand our knowledge the martian environment and lead human exploration the red planet asteroids the solar system has large number rocky and metallic objects that are orbit around the sun but are too small considered full fledged planets these objects are known asteroids minor planets most but not all are found band belt between the orbits mars and jupiter some have orbits that cross earth path and there evidence that earth has been hit asteroids the past one the least eroded best preserved examples the barringer meteor crater near winslow arizona asteroids are material left over from the formation the solar system one theory suggests that they are the remains planet that was destroyed massive collision long ago more likely asteroids are material that never coalesced into planet fact the estimated total mass all asteroids was gathered into single object the object would only about kilometers miles across less than half the diameter our moon thousands asteroids have been identified from earth estimated that are bright enough eventually photographed through earth based telescopes much our understanding about asteroids comes from examining pieces space debris that fall the surface earth asteroids that are collision course with earth are called meteoroids when meteoroid strikes our atmosphere high velocity friction causes this chunk space matter incinerate streak light known meteor the meteoroid does not burn completely what left strikes earth surface and called meteorite one the best places look for meteorites the ice cap antarctica all the meteorites examined percent are composed silicate stone and percent are composed iron and nickel the rest are mixture the three materials stony meteorites are the hardest identify since they look very much like terrestrial rocks since asteroids are material from the very early solar system scientists are interested their composition spacecraft that have flown through the asteroid belt have found that the belt really quite empty and that asteroids are separated very large distances current and future missions will fly selected asteroids for closer examination the galileo orbiter launched nasa october will investigate main belt asteroids its way jupiter the comet rendezvous asteroid flyby craf and cassini missions will also study these far flung objects scheduled for launch the latter part the the craf and cassini missions are collaborative project nasa the european space agency and the federal space agencies germany and italy well the united states air force and the department energy one day space factories will mine the asteroids for raw materials jupiter beyond mars and the asteroid belt the outer regions our solar system lie the giant planets jupiter saturn uranus and neptune nasa dispatched the first four spacecraft slated conduct the initial surveys these colossal worlds gas and their moons ice and rock jupiter was the first port call pioneer which lifted off from kennedy space center march was the first spacecraft penetrate the asteroid belt and travel the outer regions the solar system december returned the first close images jupiter flying within kilometers miles the planet banded cloud tops pioneer followed year later voyagers and were launched the summer and returned spectacular photographs jupiter and its family satellites during flybys these travelers found jupiter whirling ball liquid hydrogen and helium topped with colorful atmosphere composed mostly gaseous hydrogen and helium ammonia ice crystals form white jovian clouds sulfur compounds and perhaps phosphorus may produce the brown and orange hues that characterize jupiter atmosphere likely that methane ammonia water and other gases react form organic molecules the regions between the planet frigid cloud tops and the warmer hydrogen ocean lying below because jupiter atmospheric dynamics however these organic compounds they exist are probably short lived the great red spot has been observed for centuries through telescopes earth this hurricane like storm jupiter atmosphere more than twice the size our planet high pressure region the great red spot spins direction opposite that low pressure storms jupiter surrounded swirling currents that rotate around the spot and are sometimes consumed the great red spot might million years old our spacecraft detected lightning jupiter upper atmosphere and observed auroral emissions similar earth northern lights the jovian polar regions voyager returned the first images faint narrow ring encircling jupiter largest the solar system planets jupiter rotates dizzying pace once every hours minutes seconds the massive planet takes almost earth years complete journey around the sun with known moons jupiter something miniature solar system new mission jupiter the galileo project under way after six year cruise that takes the galileo orbiter once past venus twice past earth and the moon and once past two asteroids the spacecraft will drop atmospheric probe into jupiter cloud layers and relay data back earth the galileo orbiter will spend two years circling the planet and flying close jupiter large moons exploring detail what the two pioneers and two voyagers revealed galilean satellites galileo galilei aimed his telescope jupiter and spotted four points light orbiting the planet for the first time humans had seen the moons another world honor their discoverer these four bodies would become known the galilean satellites moons but galileo might have happily traded this honor for one look the dazzling photographs returned the voyager spacecraft they flew past these planet sized satellites one the most remarkable findings the voyager mission was the presence active volcanoes the galilean moon volcanic eruptions had never before been observed world other than earth the voyager cameras identified least nine active volcanoes with plumes ejected material extending far kilometers miles above the moon surface pizza colored terrain marked orange and yellow hues probably the result sulfur rich materials brought the surface volcanic activity volcanic activity this satellite the result tidal flexing caused the gravitational tug war between jupiter and the other three galilean moons europa approximately the same size our moon the brightest galilean satellite the moon surface displays complex array streaks indicating the crust has been fractured caught gravitational tug war like europa has been heated enough cause its interior ice melt apparently producing liquid water ocean this ocean covered ice crust that has formed where water exposed the cold space europa core made rock that sank its center like europa the other two galilean moons ganymede and callisto are worlds ice and rock ganymede the largest satellite the solar system larger than the planets mercury and pluto the satellite composed about percent water ice and the rest rock ganymede surface has areas different brightness indicating that the past material oozed out the moon interior and was deposited various locations the surface callisto only slightly smaller than ganymede has the lowest density any galilean satellite suggesting that large amounts water are part its composition callisto the most heavily cratered object the solar system activity during its history has erased old craters except more impacts detailed studies all the galilean satellites will performed the galileo orbiter saturn planet the solar system adorned like saturn its exquisite ring system unrivaled like jupiter saturn composed mostly hydrogen but contrast the vivid colors and wild turbulence found jovian clouds saturn atmosphere has more subtle butterscotch hue and its markings are muted high altitude haze given saturn somewhat placid looking appearance scientists were surprised the high velocity equatorial jet stream that blows some kilometers miles per hour three american spacecraft have visited saturn pioneer sped the planet and its moon titan september returning the first close images voyager followed november sending back breathtaking photographs that revealed for the first time the complexities saturn ring system and moons voyager flew the planet and its moons august the rings are composed countless low density particles orbiting individually around saturn equator progressive distances from the cloud tops analysis spacecraft radio waves passing through the rings showed that the particles vary widely size ranging from dust house sized boulders the rings are bright because they are mostly ice and frosted rock the rings might have resulted when moon passing body ventured too close saturn the unlucky object would have been torn apart great tidal forces its surface and its interior the object may not have been fully formed begin with and disintegrated under the influence saturn gravity third possibility that the object was shattered collisions with larger objects orbiting the planet unable either form into moon drift away from each other individual ring particles appear held place the gravitational pull saturn and its satellites these complex gravitational interactions form the thousands ringlets that make the major rings radio emissions quite similar the static heard car radio during electrical storm were detected the voyager spacecraft these emissions are typical lightning but are believed coming from saturn ring system rather than its atmosphere where lightning was observed they had jupiter the voyagers saw version earth auroras near saturn poles the voyagers discovered new moons and found several satellites that share the same orbit learned that some moons shepherd ring particles maintaining saturn rings and the gaps the rings saturn moon was discovered from images taken voyager voyager determined that titan has nitrogen based atmosphere with methane and argon one more like earth composition than the carbon dioxide atmospheres mars and venus titan surface temperature degrees celsius degrees fahrenheit implies that there might water ice islands rising above oceans ethane methane liquid sludge unfortunately voyager cameras could not penetrate the moon dense clouds continuing photochemistry from solar radiation may converting titan methane ethane acetylene and combination with nitrogen hydrogen cyanide the latter compound building block amino acids these conditions may similar the atmospheric conditions primeval earth between three and four billion years ago however titan atmospheric temperature believed too low permit progress beyond this stage organic chemistry the exploration saturn will continue with the cassini mission the cassini spacecraft will orbit the planet and will also deploy probe called huygens which will dropped into titan atmosphere and fall the surface cassini will use the probe well radar peer through titan clouds and will spend years examining the saturnian system uranus january four and half years after visiting saturn voyager completed the first close survey the uranian system the brief flyby revealed more information about uranus and its retinue icy moons than had been gleaned from ground observations since the planet discovery over two centuries ago the english astronomer william herschel uranus third largest the planets oddball the solar system unlike the other planets with the exception pluto this giant lies tipped its side with its north and south poles alternately facing the sun during year swing around the solar system during voyager flyby the south pole faced the sun uranus might have been knocked over when earth sized object collided with early the life the solar system voyager found that uranus magnetic field does not follow the usual north south axis found the other planets instead the field tilted degrees and offset from the planet center phenomenon that earth would like having one magnetic pole new york city and the other the city djakarta the island java indonesia uranus atmosphere consists mainly hydrogen with some percent helium and small amounts ammonia methane and water vapor the planet blue color occurs because methane its atmosphere absorbs all other colors wind speeds range kilometers miles per hour and temperatures near the cloud tops average degrees celsius degrees fahrenheit uranus sunlit south pole shrouded kind photochemical smog believed combination acetylene ethane and other sunlight generated chemicals surrounding the planet atmosphere and extending thousands kilometers into space mysterious ultraviolet sheen known electroglow approximately kilometers miles below uranus cloud tops there thought scalding ocean water and dissolved ammonia some kilometers miles deep beneath this ocean earth sized core heavier materials voyager discovered new moons kilometers miles diameter orbiting uranus the five previously known miranda ariel umbriel titania and oberon range size from kilometers miles across representing geological showcase these five moons are half ice half rock spheres that are cold and dark and show evidence past activity including faulting and ice flows the most remarkable uranus moons miranda its surface features high cliffs well canyons crater pocked plains and winding valleys the sharp variations terrain suggest that after the moon formed was smashed apart collision with another body event not unusual our solar system which contains many objects that have impact craters are fragments from large impacts what extraordinary that miranda apparently reformed with some the material that had been its interior exposed its surface uranus was thought have nine dark rings voyager imaged contrast saturn rings which are composed bright particles uranus rings are primarily made dark boulder sized chunks neptune voyager completed its year tour the solar system with investigation neptune and the planet moons august the spacecraft swept within kilometers miles neptune and then flew the moon triton during the neptune encounter became clear that the planet atmosphere was more active than uranus voyager observed the great dark spot circular storm the size earth neptune atmosphere resembling jupiter great red spot the storm spins counterclockwise and moves westward almost kilometers miles per hour voyager also noted smaller dark spot and fast moving cloud dubbed the scooter well high altitude clouds over the main hydrogen and helium cloud deck the highest wind speeds any planet were observed kilometers miles per hour like the other giant planets neptune has gaseous hydrogen and helium upper layer over liquid interior the planet core contains higher percentage rock and metal than those the other gas giants neptune distinctive blue appearance like uranus blue color due atmospheric methane neptune magnetic field tilted relative the planet spin axis and not centered the core this phenomenon similar uranus magnetic field and suggests that the fields the two giants are being generated area above the cores where the pressure great that liquid hydrogen assumes the electrical properties metal earth magnetic field the other hand produced its spinning metallic core and only slightly tilted and offset relative its center voyager also shed light the mystery neptune rings observations from earth indicated that there were arcs material orbit around the giant planet was not clear how neptune could have arcs and how these could kept from spreading out into even unclumped rings voyager detected these arcs but they were fact part thin complete rings number small moons could explain the arcs but such bodies were not spotted astronomers had identified the neptunian moons triton and nereid voyager found six more one the new moons proteus actually larger than nereid but since proteus orbits close neptune was lost the planet glare for observers earth triton circles neptune retrograde orbit under six days tidal forces triton are causing spiral slowly towards the planet million years short time astronomical terms the moon will close that neptunian gravity will tear apart forming spectacular ring accompany the planet modest current rings triton landscape strange and unexpected those and miranda the moon has more rock than its counterparts saturn and uranus triton mantle probably composed water ice but the moon crust thin veneer nitrogen and methane the moon shows two dramatically different types terrain the called cantaloupe terrain and receding ice cap dark streaks appear the ice cap these streaks are the fallout from geyser like volcanic vents that shoot nitrogen gas and dark fine grained particles heights kilometers miles triton thin atmosphere only thick earth has winds that carry the dark particles and deposit them streaks the ice cap the coldest surface yet found the solar system degrees celsius degrees fahrenheit triton might more like pluto than any other object spacecraft have far visited pluto pluto the most distant the planets yet the eccentricity its orbit periodically carries inside neptune orbit where has been since and where will remain until march pluto orbit also highly inclined tilted degrees the orbital plane the other planets discovered pluto appears little more than celestial snowball the planet diameter calculated approximately kilometers miles only two thirds the size our moon ground based observations indicate that pluto surface covered with methane ice and that there thin atmosphere that may freeze and fall the surface the planet moves away from the sun observations also show that pluto spin axis tipped degrees the planet has one known satellite charon discovered charon surface composition different from pluto the moon appears covered with water ice rather than methane ice its orbit gravitationally locked with pluto both bodies always keep the same hemisphere facing each other pluto and charon rotational period and charon period revolution are all earth days although spacecraft have ever visited pluto nasa currently exploring the possibility such mission comets the outermost members the solar system occasionally pay visit the inner planets asteroids are the rocky and metallic remnants the formation the solar system comets are the icy debris from that dim beginning and can survive only far from the sun most comet nuclei reside the oort cloud loose swarm objects halo beyond the planets and reaching perhaps halfway the nearest star comet nuclei orbit this frozen abyss until they are gravitationally perturbed into new orbits that carry them close the sun nucleus falls inside the orbits the outer planets the volatile elements which made gradually warm the time the nucleus enters the region the inner planets these volatile elements are boiling the nucleus itself irregular and only few miles across and made principally water ice with methane and ammonia materials very similar those composing the moons the giant planets these materials boil off the nucleus they form coma cloud like head that can measure tens thousands kilometers across the coma grows the comet gets closer the sun the stream charged particles coming from the sun pushes this cloud blowing back like flag the wind and giving rise the comet tails gases and ions are blown directly back from the nucleus but dust particles are pushed more slowly the nucleus continues its orbit the dust particles are left behind curved arc both the gas and dust tails point away from the sun effect the comet chases its tails recedes from the sun the tails can reach million kilometers million miles length but the total amount material contained this dramatic display would fit ordinary suitcase comets from the latin cometa meaning long haired are essentially dramatic light shows some comets pass through the solar system only once but others have their orbits gravitationally modified close encounter with one the giant outer planets these latter visitors can enter closed elliptical orbits and repeatedly return the inner solar system halley comet the most famous example relatively short period comet returning average once every years and orbiting from beyond neptune within venus orbit confirmed sightings the comet back this regular visitor our solar system named for sir edmond halley because plotted the comet orbit and predicted its return based earlier sightings and newtonian laws motion his name became part astronomical lore when the comet returned schedule unfortunately sir edmond did not live see comet can very prominent the sky passes comparatively close earth unfortunately its most recent appearance halley comet passed closer than million kilometers million miles from our world the comet was visible the naked eye especially for viewers the southern hemisphere but was not spectacular comets have been bright rare occasions that they were visible during daytime historically comet sightings have been interpreted bad omens and have been artistically rendered daggers the sky the comet rendezvous asteroid flyby craf spacecraft will become the first traveler fly close comet nucleus and remain proximity they both approach the sun craf will observe the nucleus becomes active the growing sunlight and begins have its lighter elements boil off and form coma and tails several spacecraft have flown comets high speed the first was nasa international cometary explorer armada five spacecraft two

scientists the past had only one body they could study closely earth but since spaceflight through the solar system has lifted the veil our neighbors space have learned more about our solar system and its members than anyone had the previous thousands years our automated spacecraft have traveled the moon and all the planets beyond our world except pluto they have observed moons large small planets flown comets and sampled the solar environment astronomy books now include detailed pictures bodies that were only smudges the largest telescopes for generations are lucky alive now see these strange and beautiful places and objects the knowledge gained from our journeys through the solar system has redefined traditional earth sciences like geology and meteorology and spawned entirely new discipline called comparative planetology studying the geology planets moons asteroids and comets and comparing differences and similarities are learning more about the origin and history these bodies and the solar system whole are also gaining insight into earth complex weather systems seeing how weather shaped other worlds and investigating the sun activity and its influence throughout the solar

the statement that recent observations rule out merging neutron stars sources gamma ray bursts utterly false even though popular enough make batse press releases the idea behind the statement follows you smack two neutron stars together have neutron star gobbled black hole lot energy released enough for gamma ray burst cosmological distance but the reasoning continues this energy released below lot matter the radiation becomes thermalized and you expect see roughly blackbody spectrum the observed spectra are strongly non thermal this model must wrong often the fault lies with the imagination the person who was trying prove the model wrong rather than with the model may that the initial energy release not seen gamma ray burst but the fireball energy and matter that created may spew out relativistic flow when this slams into the surrounding medium strong flux non thermal gamma rays results which may carry off substantial fraction the initial total energy all this not idea series

for what creates the initial fireball the way the called failed supernovae scenario stan woosley which very massive star the end its life collapses black hole the stellar core was rotating part the infalling matter will temporarily halted because supported centrifugal force and form very dense neutron torus that accretes onto the black hole this beast may spew out jet along the rotation axis which again constitutes relativistic flow the rate such events may much higher than that neutron star mergers but the flux may more strongly beamed that the net rate bursts observed earth stays the

the case let point out that interstellar dust and molecules provide many instances things that are well not too far from being blackbodies many different observations including iras and cobe have determined that interstellar dust grain temperatures can range from interstellar grains are not all close blackbodies the large grains have sizes order micron and absorb visible light with fair efficiency however temperatures below the thermal emission will beyond microns where radiating efficiency poor small antenna cannot easily radiate long wavelengths thus the grains must heat more order radiate the energy they have absorbed moreover the iras observations had maximum wavelength microns grains colder than will radiate primarily longer wavelengths and iras would relatively insensitive them the extreme limit grains cold will almost undetectable any conceivable observation worse still iras color temperatures are heavily contaminated population small grains these grains have only perhaps atoms and when they are hit single photon they heat temperatures several hundred course they cool quickly and then stay cold for while but when they are radiating the characteristic temperature several hundred even small population these grains can dramatically raise the observed average temperature model for local infrared emission consistent with cobe data has three components these represent scattered radiation from zodiacal dust color temperature thermal emission from zodiacal dust and thermal emission from galactic dust the ecliptic poles the emissivities dilution factors are respectively and the first two are roughly doubled the ecliptic plane find the thermal equilibrium temperature add the dilution factor times the fourth power temperature for all components then take the fourth root the table below starlight comes from allen number that stellar emission from the whole sky equivalent zero mag stars with color doubt careful work could much better the person who suggested starlight had dilution factor must have been remembering wrong would cooked that were the case any event the energy density starlight comes out about the same that the microwave

the role government science and technology basically the government has gotten into the role supporting research which private industry finds too expensive too long term historically this role for the gov was forced upon because socialism other countries order for industries compete with government subsidized foreign competitors the gov has taken the role subisizing big ticket long lead this definitely had nothing with the entry the government into the support science some relevant technology there was little involvement federal funds except through support state universities state funds for scientific research before wwii the research position had been growing steadily and the funding was mainly from university and private foundation funds there were not that many research universities but they all provided their researchers with low teaching loads laboratories assistants and equipment and funds for travel scientific meetings not that much but was provided and university wishing get scholar had consider research funding well salary during wwii the military and the defense departments found that pure scientists could quite well with their problems even though they were not exactly the areas the scientists expertise this probably because the research mind approach which not try find solution but understand the problem and see solution emerges this works stages and research scientists were used discussion about their problems the job got done the military realized the importance maintaining scientists for the future and started funding pure research after wwii but congress was unwilling have military funds diverted into this investment into the future supply scientists and set other organizations such nsf the job also set elaborate procedure supposedly keep politics out also the government did job private foundations making more difficult for them act support research the worst part the federal involvement that those areas which the government supports research the university will not provide funding and fact expects its scholars bring net government money suppose has been the case have project which could use the assistance graduate student for few months what you think happens ask for one the answer will get get the money from nsf now the money the university level few thousand but the nsf level comes about thousand and likely keep faculty member from getting supported the government effect deciding which projects get supported and how much also the government decided that the wealth should spread instead having moderate number universities which were primarily research institutions the idea that more schools should get into the act came into being and instead evaluating scholars they had evaluating reseach proposals researcher can tell you that any research proposal has mainly wishful thinking now happens the investigator conceals already done work release the results the research what proposing today may solve before the funding granted may find impossible may find that too difficult addition tomorrow may get unexpected research results possibly may bet bright idea which solves yesterday too difficult problem whole new approach something had not considered can develop this the nature the beast and except for really vague statements something can predicted not major research but

interpret that cryptic remark you please some people have appended that remark that nietzche was kant with thankfully haven read enough either comment although everyone tells should read nietzche would have say that the greatest philosopher title would have plato since the whole enterprise philosophy was essentially defined him although got most his answers wrong did definitively identify what the important questions are think was descartes who said that all philosophy just footnote plato were choose which philosopher made the most important advances human knowledge over his lifetime that simple aristotle this much the case that many simply refer him the philosopher regarding nietzsche one the most entertaining although since his ideas were fragmented and since his life was cut short doubtful that his influence philosopher likely very extensive years from now they probably still reading him years though for modern philosophers would have say that kant was the most influential since had such strong influence almost everyone who came after him and unfortunately they maintained his errors and amplified them over time would say that the most influential american philosopher

only balancing forces that means that much more energy would required for the creature function the bones also supply leverage points for pushing and lateral movement that why you don find large active boneless creatures land hydraulics can make rigid tubes energy required just for support hydraulics also allow creature produce large forces with weak muscles using the principle hydraulic jack rather than lever this one those yes but things true that hydraulically pressurized tube can somewhat more rigid than unpressurized tube but even psi levels hydraulic hose will bend rather easily though straight compressive strength high and torsional resistance increase practically nil the other grasping member there doubt that hydraulic leverage exists nature tree roots are example given time they can shatter concrete osmotic pressure increases interesting note that land creatures are either two legged legged with tiny insects having legs but never legged though that would stable configuration can argued that legged creatures kangaroos are legged the specific number limbs creature has accident evolution hard make changes some structures the panda has thumb plus many fingers its ancestors five each hand but the thumb modified wristbone rather than modified finger and extra fingers are much more common than extra limbs especially fully functional ones kangaroos limbed don think you take the view that the tail limb then monkeys and kangaroos are limbed think the tail different kind structure grossly enlarged the case the kangaroo but primarily still instrument balance rather than locomotion don know much about panda thumbs ask opposable thermodynamic considerations surface volume relationships would seem dictate that active complex creatures stay size range similar what see about inch tall intelligent aliens seem unlikely those much larger than the elephant why can lemur brontosaurus intelligent yes know that the brontosaurus mythical beast produced putting the head another dinosaur apatosaurus but far space aliens are also mythical well won say flat out that they can intelligent but bring couple lines argument bear try show why don think likely first let say that when say intelligent mean complex behaviors response novel situations level with greater than human tool use and tool building assuming suitable manipulators are present the creature allow alter enviroment planned way will that certainly not universal complete definition intelligence but will suffice for putative technological alien now one knows exactly what makes brain capable thought but generally accepted that one the criteria certain level complexity this generally determined the number neuron cells and their interconnections creature the size lemur wouldn have enough neurons support complex thought this argument considerably less clear the case the dinosaur there room for large brain though indication that one ever developed one reason this may true neuronic speed the electrochemical messages that trigger neurons require time propagate this makes difficult for highly complex central brain coordinate the movements very large creatures there little selection pressure for such brains instead simpler distributed network evolves this doesn rule out intelligent dinosaurs but points that direction then there are the thermodynamic arguments tiny creature like the lemur needs eat frequently because internal heat rapidly lost due high surface volume ratio contend that creature that must spend most time and energy feeding won have the time develop and exercise intelligence that argument may somewhat weak the dinosaur problem the reverse must moderate heat production because high volume surface ratio makes tend retain waste heat assuming that certain temperature range optimal for chemical reactivity reasons for productive neuron function creatures would tend need maintain regulated temperature range near that humans they are carbon based that tends rule out cold blooded creatures potential homes intelligence some people contend that some the dinosaurs may have been warm blooded but for creature the size brontosaur activity levels would have restrained would prone generate internal steam explosion from the waste heat whales are similar size but they can reject heat the ocean much more efficient sink than air suspect that for

unified church now each city there were people different cultures naturally they formed something stew with different members having different heritages nevertheless they were one body they met

region for instance rome latin was spoken the united states today english spoken would make sense that congregations different cities would speak the common language and not necessarily latin naturally you would expect the lead evangelist preach the common language the first century church there were probably many people the congregation who could speak given tongue translate the message for people foreign ethnic groups today however you don see people speaking tongues translate sermons even called pentacostal churches have modern day equivalent though lingual speakers now the unified

sermon their native tongue neat idea huh now meet different size groups random sort way sundays sometimes there will meeting only haitians spanish speaking people for example who will hear evangelist preach their native language addition meet small groups couple times during the week for bible discussion groups and devotionals someone who speaks different language will almost always with people who also speak his language assuming the congregation large enough for those meetings for the people who speak the common language they can keep touch with their culture they want but they will also

their cultural heritages when most denominations didn yet you have largely isolated yourselves from having quality christian friendships outside your nationality and your denomination shall certainly give people place feel comfortable with their heritage however will this way that does not destroy church unity but rather encourages friendships among all disciples this the approach some the groups that you cite sounds like these groups have wonderful intentions but they are going about things the wrong way and names like the african methodist episcopal church still make cringe although not much before understand that there was more racism the past that caused such groups formed but now should try unite know that hard for many people this newsgroup imagine there being only one body people earth but quite possible and working make happen however what might smaller step towards unity would taking the word african out your denomination name then perhaps someday long time off you can also remove the methodist episcopal part also and simply part the church with regard inclusivity note tht your sig emits from mit you know the tute religiously and culturally diversified and not everyone who comes there immediately comfortable with english much less american culture what shall the conduct the campus churches then shall there one church for the sake unity shall the organizations like

this gift just any other the gifts mentioned the bible but there evidence the bible that people who not accept these gifts are any way better than others perhaps would believe the gifted ones more they were glorifying god rather than themselves then perhaps witness real miracle maybe some the people who have received spiritual gifts are more interested glorifying themselves than glorifying god don know but this the case still does not suggest that the gifts are faked the bible you will find that jesus did not always miracles said that nothing except what father tells perhaps woulkd for the

possible creature this the everlasting life that the new testament speaks what christ did when came was restore this life sanctifying grace the human race instituted the sacraments the means which

the gift sanctifying grace use example would like taking that rock and attempting hold conversation with rocks cannot talk neither can human beings live heaven without sanctifying grace this all

having believed some god god conversing with them other groups often sensed anger hostility though don mean imply that all atheists are angry hostile does seem one motivation for giving faith thus some atheism might result from broken ness like field this one may although believer and follower christ experiences with religion haven been all that positive fact there was one point life when for about three days simply couldn believe the existence god anyway when look back upon the troubles had they seem fall into two categories impulses unbelief that resulted from logical contradictions and impulses unbelief that resulted from frustration with god the first category doesn occur much anymore have worked through most the arguments for the non existence god but way back when these would cause some problems and would have struggle with faith continue believe can see where others less stubborn than and mean stubborn stubborness has often been the only thing standing between atheism from time time would fail the second category arises out some long term personal difficulties and the struggle live life god would have live without living life others would tell how god would have live good example this struggle with the more radical christians meet not nor have ever been fire for chirst and don think ever want nevertheless not lukewarm about faith don really fit with the mainstream either quite naturally feel lot anxiety about dislocation within christian society and can lead lot internal tension when want what know right but when another part believes that what want wrong because all the other christians think quite naturally this tension has destructive effect relationship with god and during all this internal strife there atheism sitting there like the promised land rules responsibilities need live anyone expectations but own complete freedom course all illusion but nevertheless very appealing illusion especially when the called people god are behaving like total twits can easily understand why someone would that route and would hostile ever coming back imho many the former christians turned atheists who are now actively hostile christianity are because their experience with christ and god wasn very peaceful one but one mind control and shut and what you told because know what best for you because god will and you young know what god will yet courtesy some christ more overzealous followers final reason why people become atheists because christians not have very good reputation right now one the things that attracted people christianity the ancient days was the love that christians obviously had for one another and the world around them unlike the rest the world christian communities actively cared for their poor and the christian rich did not trod the backs their poorer brothers but bent down help them christians were known for living exemplary lives even they were thought traitors the state because they wouldn sacrifice the emporer nowadays courtesy the media and some christian leaders who lost christ their way power people see christians sexually repressed hippocritical busibodies who want remake society into facist version their own moral view there are lot more reasons why people become atheists but don have time into them right now tom ault soc.religion.christian god morality and massacres jek nih gov james kiefer writes stuff deleted first point what they are doing wrong just what joseph brothers did was wrong just what judas did was wrong they intend for evil god somehow brings good out that does not make them any less subject just condemnation and punishment second point course god will bring good out but not the same good that would have brought the serbians had refrained from the sins robbery and rape and murder nor does the good purposes excuse from the duty doing what right what you saying then that god exercises direct control influence upon humanity doesn control our every thought action but takes what whether intended for evil not and turns into something good seems that this idea conflicts with the belief that god gave humans free will far can determine impossible reconcile these two different ideas god were exert his influence upon anyone anything anytime would impeding upon someone free will unless course you believe that god did not give complete and unabated free will but rather some sort conditional free will something that allows make our own choices and control our own lives except when god wants use fulfill some good purpose his own hardening our heart controlling some other way hear alot people who look various events mostly catastrophies things like the aids epidemic and make comments about god will have very difficult time understanding why people believe that god controls anything that happens this planet except possibly when being asked through someone prayer according the bible pharoah was going let moses people after one two plagues but god kept hardening his heart moses could cast all plagues upon the egyptians the last plague causing the death many innocent children then god impeded upon pharoah free will and used him puppet god did this not just free the hebrews but free them some sort grand fashion suppose from the hebrew point view this could seen turning something bad into good but sure the egyptians didn see this way all your examples how god turned something bad into something good are based upon showing favortism one group people over another after all only good based upon your point view why does god who supposed the god all humanity play favorites soc.religion.christian why people become atheists article may athos rutgers edu muirm argon gas organpipe uug arizona edu maxwell muir writes think you

was apparently was not compatible with christianity yet does that make his epistles any less the bible warns against judging greed anxiety impure thoughts bearing grudges etc etc suppose should seek

make homosexuals feel unwelcome because our discomfort with homosexuality incompatible with christianity our hatred deep that rather than see someone try become closer jesus need keep them away does jesus need screen out those guilty particular sin really mistrust jesus when says can forgive any sin think about among the people jesus encountered were sinners and the pharisees the sinners embraced and forgave the pharisees hypocritcal unmerciful self righteous pointed out others sins and did not seek and thus did not gain forgiveness their own sins what take from this and other verses that not admit our sins those sins will not forgiven and since those guilty even one sin are guilty the whole law those not repenting the judging others are guilty guilty they committed the same sin they

enemies eusebius claims that jesus imparted secret information peter james and john after his resurrection and that those apostles transmitted that information the rest the twelve eusebius historia ecclesiastica this curious read the lord imparted the gift knowledge james the just john and peter after his resurrection these delivered the rest the apostles and they the seventy whom barnabas was one eusebius ecclesiastical history seems that the lord imparted the gift knowledge not that the lord imparted secret information apostles interestingly enough eusebius refers the groups which today call gnostics promulgators false gnosis eusebius cit iii his gripe was not that thay professed gnosis but that they had the wrong one afraid that cannot find this portrayal don see anywhere where eusebius mentions that certain gnostics had the wrong gnosis the closest when eusebius summarizes hegesippus statements whilst there were any all that attempted pervert the sound doctrine the saving gospel they were yet skulking dark retreats now one can approach this and other such evidence many ways don intend that everyone interpret christian history but believe that evidence exists favorably interpreted course early christian rites analogous those practiced mormons today favorably interpreted just looking two the four references that you gave have the handy irenaeus and the clemetine recognitions will have look for see room for such interpretations and any such interpretation still falls short equivalence the temple ceremonies the links for jay using for support are imparting the

different christian were told all the time that were different and fact that only members the our church were really christians though others who believed god weren bad atheists were small minority that was nothing compared being atheist the only thing comparable would young child being christian being surrounded staunch atheists including parents who actively persecute any religious tendancies both actual punishments and even worse emotional blackmail they would also have have the whole mainstream society their side maybe these conditions could have occured the old soviet union not country
