Squirrel Scouts are fictional girl scouts in Camp Lazlo.

The girl scouts were called Squirrel Scouts. The girls there had a lot to do, arts & crafts, campfires, nature hikes, volleyball, soccer, pine cone sitting, tea parties, croquet, & many more things. However, 1 particularly favoured sport of the Squirrel Scouts was making fun of the Bean Scouts of Camp Kidney, a more underfunded camp on the other side of the lake. The Squirrel Scouts were the group of girl scouts who were about the same ages as the bean scouts and lived in a natural environment setting like the bean scouts. They lived in a camp called Acorn Flats. The commonly seen scouts are Patsy Smiles, Nina Neckerly, & Gretchen.

67.72.98.22 01:14, 21 August 2006 (UTC) The first camera phone and who invented it The first camera phone and who invented it[reply]

The first camera phone and who invented it At Jon Peddie Research we decided to investigate who was the person, or group who came up with the idea of adding a camera to a mobile phone.

We surveyed over 4,000 engineers and managers in the mobile phone and camera market and got over 2,000 replies and a lot with references to (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera_phone)., http://www.w2forum.com/dictionary/Camera_Phones, http://www.answers.com/topic/j-sh04, http://sharp-world.com/corporate/info/his/chronology/p14.html, which all said “The world's first camera phone was the J-SH04 made by Sharp Corporation and went on sale in Japan in November 2000.”

Dave Cooper from Imagination Technology found an interesting patent filed by Alcatel in European Patent office in July 1992. (http://v3.espacenet.com/textdoc?DB=EPODOC&IDX=EP1028577&QPN=EP1028577&CY=ep&LG=en) Source European Patent Office Figure 1: Radio telephone with video player recorder The radio telephone has a hand-held housing with electroacoustic transducers (2,3) behind sound inlets (9,10) and a video recorder (7), a video player (6) and an electronic circuit (5) for image and a sound communications by radio within the housing. The telephone also has a hands-free device. The video recorder has a wide-angle objective (8) and is mounted in the front of the housing with the video player.

And former JPA employee Tommy McClain found a US Patent filled in February 2002 by Miyake; Hiroyuki at Mitsubishi. (http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PALL&p=1&u=/netahtml/srchnum.htm&r=1&f=G&l=50&s1=6,882,864.WKU.&OS=PN/6,882,864&RS=PN/6,882,864) which was originally disclosed in the 1998 Japanese Patent Publication (unexamined) No. 336498/1998. Source: US Patent Office Figure 2: Cellular phone with imaging device Hitherto, in the cellular phone equipped with an imaging device in which the cellular phone and the imaging device are integrally accommodated, for the purpose of taking a picture while visually recognizing a photographing screen on a monitor, a camera of the imaging device faces in opposite direction of the monitor. Therefore, to take a picture of a user while watching on the screen a person to whom the user is speaking, it is necessary to change the direction of the imaging device every time. In a cellular phone equipped with an imaging device 1 according to the invention, on the front side 1a provided with a monitor 4 of a housing 100 of the cellular phone, a lens 2 of the imaging device is disposed facing outwardly. Further, a viewfinder 3a is provided facing in the same direction as that of the lens 2.

This patent was filled in the US in 2002, and probably was filled in Japan much earlier (Patent Abstracts of Japan, 11-146034, May 28, 1999.) Notice the similarity to the shape and locations of elements to the Kyocera VP-210 in Figure 33. The real first camera phone But the first commercially available phone was correctly identified by Eisaku Ohbuchi-san at DMP Digital Media Professionals, Dr. Peter Weigand at Micronas, and Tony Henning, Managing Editor, The Mobile Imaging Report form Future Image Inc. 

as being the Kyocera visual phone (VP-210) which was introduced in Japan in May 1999, over a year and half before the Sharp J-SH04

Kyocera Corporation’s President: Kensuke Itoh, showed the VP-210 with a CMOS image sensor with approximately 110,000 pixels and a 2.0-inch reflective TFT color LCD at the Business Show '99 Tokyo.

The phone could transmits and receives images in real time at a rate of approximately two frames per second, making it the world's mobile first color videophone. In addition, users can send and receive e-mail with image attachments by using the P-Mail DX (deluxe) service offered by the DDI Pocket Telephone Group

Source Kyocera Figure 3: First camera phone, Kyocera VP-210 The VP-210 had a 65k color 2.0-inch reflective TFT color LCD (size: approximately 40 mm x 30 mm. The phone was featured in a UK magazine article (PC World) in May 2000 with the SRP of £36.19.

Kyocera Corporation, headquartered in Kyoto, Japan, has been developing high-tech products, high-performance materials and electronic components since 1959. The second camera phone Don Lee at NexusChips had a totally different idea, and said, “As far as I know the world’s fist camera phone was the Samsung Anycall CDMA camera phone, SCH-V200 in June, 2000. The SCH-V200 had a 1.5 inch color TFT-LCD, 350K pixel and 20 pictures storage. It was released at "KIECO 2000 exhibition" in April, 2000. The SCH-V200 was not a successful product. Then, Japanese camera phone, Sharp's SH04 was released in November, 2000.” Source Samsung? Figure 4: Samsung’s SCH-V200 Chris.Turner at Business-Advantage got some data from his friend Tony Henning Managing Editor, The Mobile Imaging Report form Future Image. The Camera Phone was the fifth multi-function hand-held phone developed by Samsung, after the Internet Phone, MP3 Phone, Watch Phone, and TV Phone. The unit featured a fixed lens located on the upper backside of the phone, and the subject captured by the lens is displayed on the TFT-LCD. Once the subject has been framed correctly, the user presses the shutter button on the bottom of the TFT-LCD. The Camera Phone can take 20 pictures at 350,000-pixel resolution and included a CD-ROM for picture editing and a data cable to connect the phone to a PC

We couldn’t find any of references on this phone in English, but found a dozen in Russian, and did see things in the text that suggested it was indeed an April 2000 event. Kudos to Don for finding this obscure little beauty. And the third camera phone How Sharp got credit for being first is a mystery, except that Sharp make such a claim in a 2000 document (http://sharp-world.com/corporate/info/his/h_company/2000/)... “The J-SH04 was the industry's first mobile phone to feature an integrated 110,000-pixel CMOS image sensor for taking digital photos.” Now it is interesting that the Kyocera and the Sharp have the same resolution, but the Sharp’s camera is on the back side, so it was intended as a camera and not a video conference phone like the Kyocera. Vodafone echoes the claim at http://www.vodafone.jp/english/release_detail/e20030326_02/e20030326_03.html, and even the history of photography’s timeline (http://www.marcine.com/photohistorytimelinefr.html ) gives them credit. Source Sharp Figure 5: Sharp’s J-SH04 camera phone Like the Kyocera VP-210, the Sharp J-SH04 had a 65k color 2.0-inch screen and could show up 12 lines of text.

It gets a little confusing because also in October 2000, Sharp is credited with the J-Phone J-SH04 and it is shown as a clam-shell.

Source Sharp Figure 6: The other J-Phone? FYI on Sharp, the company started in 1912 making mechanical pencils – check this site for some fascinating history. http://encyclopedia.thefreedictionary.com/Sharp%20Corporation What about the PDA? David Kasik, of Boeing, who is something of a historian himself, pointed out that the big step that combined the phone, the PDA, and the camera began to happen in 1997. Says David, “Now you can argue that the Xybernaut portable system had accomplished the same thing two years earlier, but it really was not until 1997 that the average person had access to the pieces necessary to assemble a camera phone, which is when it really started happening. PDA's combined with cellular cards and cameras were visibly in use at most technology trade fairs in 1998. So the idea of assembling the technology more or less accreted over a 3-4 year period, and perfectly functional camera phones assembled from off the shelf pieces were out there for a year or so, before it occurred to the cellular carriers to formally offer them.” Camera attachment Michael Kanello posted my question on his blog on Cnet, and L.Cosh-Ishii, from Wireless Watch responded with an interesting side note. Lars said Toshiba who made the 1st camera for a cellphone (see ). The Camesse was stand alone unit in late '99 that connected to your handset and allowed people to take photo's & "customize" them w/PDA type stylus pen & send thru the phone as e-mail attach! Source L.Cosh-Ishii, Wireless Watch Figure 7: Toshibia’s Camesse camera module for phones and PDAs Lars probably saw an early unit because the camera didn’t “officially” go on sale un February 2000 when NTT DoCoMo introduced theToshiba's camesse petit. It was a picture-mail communication tool with a 110,000-pixel CMOS camera with a 312 x 230 pixel color LCD, and touch-sensitive panel to enable the user to take a picture and draw on it. Source unknown Figure 8: Example of picture-mail with hand notation This picture is stored in JPEG format and sent with text as an e-mail to another camesse petit or PCs over the Internet. Though the e-mail is sent or received via cellular phone at a speed of 9,600 bps in those days. The Snapmail system newly developed by NTT DoCoMo then shortened the time required to approximately 26 seconds for a 10 Kbyte picture-mail.

The camesse petit weighs only 170 g, and operates with 2 LR6 alkaline batteries. The body is designed to appeal to young ladies, according to Information Media and Consumer Products excerpt found at Toshiba’s website. (http://www.toshiba.co.jp/tech/review/2000/high2000/pdf/h0004.pdf) Additonal information on this very popular device can be found at: http://photojpn.org/notes/node.php?id=30 No one and everyone And Alexly Trushin at Austek asked, “I understand your attempts to figure out a hero, but I believe the father is not one and unknown. Who was the author of wheel? At the same time, Sharp can have an appointed hero or deputy hero. I do not know the name and I am not sure I'd like to figure out it. Because this question is historical as well as the question who was the father of PDA. Not the name, but the device. David Potter? Jeff Raskin? Hawkins? Or Bill Gates? All together, but nobody individually. Am I wrong?”

And Jim Oyler from E&S suggests it may not have been that simple [to find the designer or person with the idea], saying, “As you know, ideas tend to percolate around and no one person actually deserves all the credit. But who knows?” Several others like Andrers Pfeiffer at MicroCosmos Design Report expressed similar thoughts, and Alessandro Gatti at Cresta Systems suggested no one was THE inventor.

Quite a few folks, like Peter Glaskowsky and my son in law Pat Madden, suggested it was Chester Gould. Source US Post Office Figure 9: Chester Gould’s Dick Tracy and his wrist TV, circa 1931 However, Akio Tanaka at Macromedia says he read about it and that it was a team at J-Phone (now sold to Vodafone and is known as Vodafone KK) and Sharp who worked on this idea and popularized it in Japan. It became a killer feature for J-Phone, and KDDI and DoCoMo followed later. Japan was the first market where camera-phones have become the standard. Unsung heroes Wolfgang Gruener at Toms Hardware said, “While you are giving that guy credit (hope you find him) do the same with John Edwards, since he is some kind of a sad story in this whole industry. There is enough evidence that he is the first guy who was running a functional cellphone system, but he forgot to patent this whole thing - i.e. - he is not getting any license fees whatsoever. This guy lives in Dorset, England.”

Rogier Smit at Playlogic International in the Netherlands thinks it might be a couple in the Netherlands. It was in the newspapers because they never received any credit or compensation from Nokia whom they had sent the idea to. “If you do some research,” says Rogier, “you'll find it. It was in the papers about 18 months ago. I think they are still trying to get accreditation and/or compensation.”

Manish Sing at Nvidia was kind enough to contact Mr. Masafumi Matsumoto Corporate Senior Executive Director, Information and Communication Systems Business at Sharp Corporation for us, and learned fromMr. Sing and his other contacts at Sharp that they weren't aware of the original inventor of the concept of "camera with phone" however it is believed it was invented by a young engineer who belongs to their semiconductor division. He (or she) shared such idea with planning people of their cell phone division. The planning people believed that there must be a market since they also wanted to check and see how their kids are doing while they are at work.

So Masafumi-san said that if I want to award someone, he thinks I better gives the medal to the management guy who was responsible for the development of the first "camera with phone".

An d finally, I include the observation of Darren McPhee at ATI, who postulated, “Maybe a more interesting story is how this is an industry-first; and no one has jumped forward to take credit for something.” Darwwn’s right and I/we may have inadvertently opened Pandora’s box as all the inventors now call their lawyers in hopes of getting a cut of this explosive market development. Oh dear. Fun stuff One respondent, Steve Carroll of Tigermetrics remembers being at CeBIT in 1997 and making a presentation in front of Vodafone. Maxon and some other Far East manufacturers, Steve says, “They all laughed and even more when we mentioned video [in a phone.]”

Two of our respondents, Bill Homes at DivX says it was his idea (and thanked us for recognizing him), and Ari Firestone at Learn BY DVD in Canada, said he did it in 1991 whilst driving down a back road talking with his stock broker, and to (sadly abbreviate his really humorous story (which we’ll send to you if you ask), says, “As I grabbed the phone and flung it out the window, I screamed uncontrollably at the top of my voice, "they can send a man to the moon so why the hell can't they make a cellular phone with a camera built in to it!!!!" On the other end of the line my lawyer, who also happened to play golf with the then CEO of Motorola's cellular phone division, said quietly, "good idea" as the phone line went dead.” Other fun stuff If you’re interested in interesting gadgets and awards, go to Top 100 Forgotten Gadgets http://www.mobilemagazine.com/archives/2005/06/top_100_forgott.html

Summary So piecing together all the data we got it looks like the time line for camera phones is:

1. Kyocera VP210 – May 1999 2. Toshibia’s Camesse camera attachment 1999 - 2000 3. Samsung SCH-V200 - April 2000 4. Sharp J-SH03 - November 2000

As for who is the unsung hero(s), well we still don’t know, but maybe someone reading this is one of them, or knows one of them and will write us (jon@jonpeddie.com) and enlighten us all. Epilog – The inventor After we completed the survey and published our results in two places ("Jon Peddie's Tech Watch," July 18, 2005, Volume 5, Number 14, Jon Peddie Research, Tiburon Ca., "Handheld Multimedia Devices: Semiconductor and IP enabling multimedia on handhelds and phones," copyright 2004, Jon Peddie Research, Tiburon Ca.) which got world wide distribution, some diligent readers kept digging, and in November of 2005, Wolfgang Gruener of Tom's Guide Publishing found THE inventor of the camera phone.

Equipped with the information from the above research, Gruener poked into Kyocera's massive Japan operation, in the hope to find the man, woman or group behind the idea of the VP-210.

It took several weeks until I was able to find the right contact, reported Gruner. But eventually, Masumi Sakurai from Kyocera's PR department at the firm's Kyoto headquarters assisted us and I spoke to Kazumi Saburi.

Source Wolfgang Gruner, TGdaily Saburi led the VP-210 project back in 1997 as section manager of Kyocera's Yokohama research and development center and brought the device from idea to life. Today, Saburi is the manager of the Fifth Engineering Development Department for Mobile Communication Equipment in Kyocera's Corporate Mobile Communication Equipment Group.

Where did Saburi get the idea to build a camera into a cell phone?

"Around that time, cellular handsets with enabled voice and SMS communication capabilities were considered to be just one among many personal communication tools. One day a simple idea hit us - 'What if we were able to enjoy talking with the intended person watching his/her face on the display?' We were certain that such a device would make cell phone communications much more convenient and enjoyable."

So his initial thoughts were centered around a video rather than still cameras, something that is only recently become more popular in phones. "We knew that a handset must be equipped with a camera and a full-color display for visual communications of any kind - the former is required for catching the image of the speaker and the latter for showing it on the receiver's terminal. This pretty much outlines our first idea," he said.

Saburi's idea was to have users exchange pictures by email, using the SMS services of the phone network. He began working on the project back in 1997, and "the Kyocera visual phone came to the market in 1999, but we had nourished [the idea] for several years before we started development."

Looking back in the historical records 40 years ago, UK banks told John Edwards that no one ever would be interested in carrying a phone around all the time and ultimately denied him a loan to develop and market his cellphone idea. But Saburi didn't have any such difficulty. "Top management aggressively encouraged us to develop the product. We also believed that such a product would improve Kyocera's brand image."

Saburi's research on how consumers used cameras was a big reason for inventing the camera phone: "The cell phone's strongest feature is its portability. This alone creates the application opportunity for the camera phone: We imagined that users are likely to accept the minor weight addition of a camera in a cell phone and carry around 'weightless' photo albums to enjoy with friends. But they do not use heavy cameras or bring along traditional physical photo albums all the time. A cell phone with a camera and color display provided a completely new value for users: It could be used as a phone, a camera and a photo album. This is also where we started from a marketing point of view. From a technical view, we were also confident that we could develop such a device. The approach was to combine an existing teleconference system and a primary wireless data transmission technology."

The phone was a quick success in Japan and was the beginning of a cultural change in how phones were used. "After the release of Kyocera's visual phone for DDI pocket, now Willcom, and J-phone, now Vodafone K.K., introduced the service "SHA-mail" ["photo mail"], which greatly contributed to boost the sales of camera-installed cellular handsets in Japan. SHA-mail greatly changed Japanese telecommunication culture. A key factor to support the boom of camera-installed handsets was in my opinion the evolution of the camera module. We saw remarkable downsizing of the modules, the quality and function were amazingly improved - to a level that was almost equal to digital cameras."

As you can imagine, squeezing a camera into a phone wasn't easy. Saburi remembers plenty of challenges. "I remember that I had discussions with R&D staff, project members and top management several road blocks we came across - again and again. What is the best angle for camera mounting? How can we improve the data transmission speed for minimizing the time lag while talking? What is the best balance of the image quality and frame rate? What about the battery? We faced a pile of challenges that we had never had before." About a dozen engineers worked on the key technologies, taking about two years to build the first model.

Today, Saburi is in charge of Kyocera's cell handset R&D, and he is working on phones with auto focus and 3 megapixel resolution. "In Japan, we are currently enjoying taking pictures and playing music on our cell phones. We can even make payments with our handsets, just like you use a credit card. We call this the 'osaifu-keitai' function. My guess is that the next big thing would happen after a seamless ubiquitous network environment is established."

I asked Saburi if there is anything he could change about mobile phones and the way we use mobile phones, what would it be? "We should not forget the key function of phones. Cellular telephones enable us to communicate with anyone, at anytime, from anywhere. This is the strongest feature of cell phones. We should focus much more on this feature of communication, which would allow us to extend battery life. How much fun would it be, if we could enjoy endless multi-communication, without having to worry about the battery? Of course, this is my personal opinion. I myself prefer the simple cell phone models that focus on just the communication feature."

And there you have it, the ultimate irony: the inventor of the camera phone, for all his influence over how technology is used, is the ultimate cell Luddite! I hope you enjoyed our journey to the heart of this innovative technology as much as I did. Final comment (honest) I (Jon Peddie) want to point out that this article and the research behind it is a classic example of how Wikipedia works and why it is so rich and valuable to the world at large.

He currently resides in Prescott, Wi, a suburb of Minneapolis and St. Paul.

Acting

Zach started acting when he moved to Prescott in 2001. He was found by luann sebelko, the director of lil' Abner at The Great River Road Theatre. Zach held a major role as Pappy Yokum and was the youngest cast member to acomplish a major role. "Zach at age twelve is one of the best actors i have worked with" director luann sebelko comments. the next year Judy johnson became the director and cast Zach originally as Gallahad, but do to his age he was switched to Sir Kay in the Great River Road production of A Connecticut Yankee. Judy Johnson also directed the next year and Cast Zach as Will Parker in Okalhoma! However due to a conflict in reheasal schedules, and a horrible tabloid, Zach was replaced By Alex Helberg, and was switched to Ike Skidmore.

Bhashaindia.com is a website started by Microsoft to promote Indic language computing on the internet. Most of India's internet users do their business in English. Much of the remainder of the population prefer to do business in their respective regional. These people often lack access to computing facilities. For example, despite being one of the most comonly spoken languages in the world, Hindi has little presence on the internet. As such, tools for Indic language computing have not been developed.

The website is divided into two sections to cater for developers and linguists seperately from end users.

Microsoft's Indic [IME] is availible from the website. The Indic IME enables computer users to type Indic scripts, (including conjunct formation), using a variety of keyboards.

FLI

FLI - Flexible Line Interpretation[1]. This is an enhanced graphics mode on the 8-bit Commodore 64 computer. It was invented by Roland Toegel, who is also known by the alias Crossbow in the Demoscene[3]. The importance of this graphics mode is that it allows higher quality computer graphics on the C64 platform. This term and technique has been used in the subculture of the Demoscene circa 1990's[2]. The technique uses a hardware trick to enhance the original graphics modes of the C64.

Prof. Andrea Veneracion

A well-respected choirmaster and choral arranger, Andrea O. Veneracion was honored as a National Artist in Music in 1999. She has devoted her life to music, developing choral music in the Philippines. Moreover, she popularized the country’s folk songs and original works through her achievements, and organized a cultural outreach program to bring music education to several provinces.

Born in Manila on July 11, 1928, Veneracion took her undergraduate studies at the University of the Philippines, where she received two degrees. She continued her education in the United States, and graduated from Indiana University in 1962 with her Master’s Degree in Music, Major in Voice. Afterwards, she returned to the Philippines, going back to the UP College of Music as a professor. She went through the Managing the Arts Program of the Asian Institute of Management, and became Professor of Voice at the Asian Institute for Liturgy and Music.

Codename: Rocky

Codename: Rocky was a Ska/Rock oriented band from Southern California. Formed in 1997 by members of current bands from the area (I.E. Grover's Headache, Low Pressure, Channel Six)they went one to become a very big name on the modern Ska front. They played their official last show at the Anaheim House Of Blues on January first, 2004, though they recently played a reunion show with another SoCal ska band, Jeffries Fan Club. JFC was celebrating their 10 year anniversary.

Nicholas (Nick) Cordova

Nicholas Cordova was born on July 29, 1986 in Anaheim, California. He spent the first 4 years of his life living in Corona, CA before moving to Orange, CA where he would grow up. Nicholas or Nick as he is known to most attended St. Norbert's Catholic school and was apart of the first kindergarten class. After St. Norbert's, Nick went on to attend Mater Dei High School in Santa Ana, CA. There Nick played football for his freshman and sophomore years before pursuing a job to help pay for his expenses which would utlimately help his single mother focus the family funds on his two younger syblings, Candace and Daniel. Nick began working at Produce World in Orange, CA. While most would struggle to balance work and school Nick seemed to do it with ease. He maintained both an honor roll worthy g.p.a and a nice bank account. Nick would go on to graduate with honors and academic commendations from Mater Dei in May of 2004. He decided that it was in his best interest to attend Fullerton College so that he may save money while at the same time attend one of Orange County and California's best Community Colleges. During his Second semester Nick would answer the call of opportunity as he always does and left Produce World to work for Kaiser Permanente in the Pharmacy. Nick was like nothing the company had ever seen, he was a favorite of both staff and the members of the health care provider. After two years of hard work and a 3.6 g.p.a., Nick would leave Fullerton College and his home of Orange County for San Diego State University where he starts this fall as a Junior. The future holds many things for this bright young man. Teacher? Lawyer? Professional wrestler? Of course! It is all just a matter of time for this talented young man.

Schrage Motor

In this type of motor, also called the Scharge or variable-brush AC commutator motor, a different method of injecting the speed-varying e.m.f. into the secondary winding is employed. Referring to Figure 45, the supply is led to the rotor winding through slip rings, the rotor winding being the primary. The secondary winding is on the stator. On the rotor is an additional regulating winding with a commutator. The ends of the stator (secondary) windings are connected to brushes disposed on the commutator.

The first point to notice is that when the rotor is at standstill, the rotating field sweeps past the secondary winding and the brushes at synchronous speed. As the motor gains speed, the frequency in the secondary windings and, due to the commutator, the frequency at the brushes are both reduced simultaneously. No matter at what speed the rotor is moving, the brush frequency ties up with the secondary frequency and, as a result, voltage can be picked up from the commutator and injected into the secondary windings.

The method of varying the e.m.f. injected into the secondary windings is by altering the amount of commutator spanned by each pair of brushes. The pairs of brushes are arranged so that they can be moved simultaneously equal distances from the in-line position. When in-line, each pair of brushes rests on the same commutator segment. At this position, each secondary phase winding is short-circuited and no phase voltage is injected; consequently the speed is that of a normal induction motor. Movement of the brushes in one direction or the other increases or decreases the speed. Brush movement can be done by hand wheel or by means of a small servo or pilot motor, remotely-controlled. The general characteristics of this rotor-fed motor are the same as those of the stator-fed type.

Grob 109B

The Grob 109B was developed out of the Grob 109 by Grob Aerospace of Mindelheim Mattsies of Germany.

The basic concept was that of a two seater self launching motorglider with a 57 foot wing span. The basic airframe construction was in fibreglass. Total weight was around 1870 lbs with a load of 506 lbs. Cruising speed was in the region of 100 knots on the 90 horsepower engine. Though Grob made the engine, it was based on a VW car engine The engine could be turned off in flight and propeller could be feathered. The aircraft then became a pure glider, with a best glide ratio of around 1:28. The pilot and passengers sat side by side and enjoyed excellent views from the large perspex cockpit.

Seed

        This movie tells the tale of Sam Seed, an insane mass murderer who is set to be executed at the hands of Warden Wright. While strapped in the electrocution chair just before the executioner flips the switch Wright askes Seed, "Do you have any last words?" Seed replies, "I'll see you again." After three failed attempts to kill seed, they pronounce the man who has blood seeping from his eyes yet is still breathing, dead. Seed is bound and buried alive.
        The enraged, blood-soaked madman claws and bites his ways to the surface and now is bent on destroying everyone who caused him to suffer.The reign of violence that follows will redefine the boundaries of extreme gore, physical & mental torture explored through cinema.

                              Based on a true story. Seattle 1972

IMF Financial Sector Assessment Program (FSAP)

As part of its activities, The International Monetary Fund (IMF) conducts Financial Sector Assessment Programs FSAP for member countries. It was established as a program by both the IMF and the World Bank in 1999 and provides member countries, upon request, a comprehensive assessment of the respective financial systems. The IMF conducts the program to assess the strengths and weaknesses of a country's financial sector. Participation in the program is entirely voluntary, however many countries deem the programme necessary, with over two thirds of the IMF member countries participating in the Program.[5]

The Program

When a country participates in an FSAP program, a technical team of financial experts from the IMF visit the respective country (mission) to hold meetings and gather economic and financial statistical information in order to generate an initial assessment. After an initial assesment, the IMF will subsequently provide FSAP updates on a regular basis. A member country's central bank or financial authority will specify whether they want the results of an FSAP review to be publicized.

Dalek Weapons

From the BBC television series 'Doctor Who'

The Daleks would not have got were they are now without the use of weapons. In the early days of Doctor Who, the Daleks main weapon was the famous 'egg whisk' gun, which produced a 'deadly blue flame' 'Doctor Who and the Daleks' (1971). Throughout Doctor Who, they have also sported the sink plunger style weapon, which main use is opening encrypted doors, although recently in 'Dalek' (2005) it suffocated one of the scientists at Henry Van Strantens alien museum, and in 'Doomsday' (2006) the 'Cult of Skaro' used them to extract information from an unfortunate research worker at the Torchwoood plant. The plunger stayed the same throughout Doctor Who, but its gun did not. In 'Planet of the Daleks' (1979), they were machine guns that could spray hails of deadly bullets, however, this did not have much affect on the the thick skinned zombie like creatures that inhabited the planet. When Doctor Who retutned to our screens in 2005, so did a brand new Dalek. They now carry a ray gun which can do unthinkable damage. After the metallic cry of 'Exterminate!' the gun produces a stream of sharp, blue light which almost electrocutes the victim on contact. The ray gun is so powerfull that it can penertrate even a Cybermans metal armour, as they found out in 'Doomsday' (2006). Along with those two deadly weapons, the Daleks also carry a protective shield, which can withstand bullets and most handheld weapons. This makes the Daleks almost invincible, although their middle eye is their only weakpoint. A direct shot their would blind a Dalek and render it useless.

4MIX - RIVER 94.9FM

River 94.9 is a commercial radio station based in Ipswich, Queensland, Australia. The station, which broadcasts to South-East Queensland, opened in December 2001 in the old studios of Star 106.9, Their playlist originally included pop music, rock and dance with specialty programming including 'Wild Nights', licenced from Wild FM. In late 2003, after some small changes in administration, most specialty programmes disappeared. Still claiming to be 'the hit music station', they began playing less pop music and more hit music from the 1980s and early 1990s. They now position themselves in the competitive market as playing "The Biggest Variety of Hits from the 70's, 80's, 90's and whatever" with a no repeat workday.

The station is owned by Rural Press & Bunderburg Broadcasters, forming part of the Star Broadcasting Network which also currently has radio stations in Bundaberg and South Australia.

As of 2006, the shifts included Waynee "Poo" Roberts (former 4IP DJ) (breakfast), Jodie (morning) and Jay Goldman & Kane Reiken (drive). River949 is the first station in Australia to have "now playing" in the PS of their RDS (radio data system).
