Optical interferometry for measuring displacements and distances has been a key technology in both industrial and scientific fields which need highly accurate positioning. However, typical homodyne/heterodyne interferometry can measure displacements and it has the limitation for measuring absolute distance measurements due to its short unambiguity range determined by the used wavelength. To avoid the ambiguity problem in displacement interferometry, various research including synthetic wavelength interferometry , a frequency modulated continuous wave method , multiple wavelength interferometry , and frequency sweeping interferometry  have been applied to extend the unambiguity range. Recently, the application of a femtosecond pulse laser for distance metrology not only offers further improvements but also makes it possible to measure absolute distances precisely from industrial applications to space programs [5-11].
The fundamental rule for distance measurements is that the measurement uncertainty and resolution are strongly related to the measurement range, i.e. an unambiguity range. For example, measurement techniques such as synthetic wavelength interferometers have relatively long unambiguity ranges (a few millimeters) but they can only measure distances with low resolutions compared to the conventional displacement interferometer. Then, for fine resolution and accurate measurements, the unambiguity range should be relatively short. In this case, however, the ambiguity problem can limit the maximum measurable range as explained in displacement interferometry. The measurement uncertainty also has similar aspects to measurement resolutions. In order to enhance the dynamic range, i.e. to measure distances with high resolution over a long range, combining measurement results from several methods with different resolutions and unambiguity ranges can be effective and can result in a good measurement performance [5,9,12]. For combining measurement results and successfully determining the distance value, however, the relationship between measured distances which have different uncertainties, resolutions, and unambiguity ranges should be taken into account . In this paper, the principle of combined interferometry using a femtosecond pulse laser is explained and the practical conditions are derived with mathematical descriptions. Some considerations on the total measurement range, resolution, and uncertainty are also discussed.
To describe the principle of combined interferometry, at least two measurement results which have well-defined unambiguity ranges, resolutions and measurement uncertainties are needed. For this discussion, a rough measurement technique (RMT) is defined as the method, which has a relatively poor resolution and a long unambiguity range. On the other hand, a fine measurement technique (FMT) is set as the method with a high resolution and its unambiguity range is small. These two techniques are simultaneously used to measure the same distance. In this case, the multiple integer order (
A typical example is the RF synthetic wavelength interferometry using the harmonics of repetition frequency (mode spacing frequency) in a femtosecond pulse laser. Assuming the repetition frequency of the femtosecond pulse laser is 75 MHz, the synthetic wavelength and the unambiguity range caused by this frequency in the Michelson type interferometers become 4.0 m and 2.0 m, respectively. The 10th harmonic of the fundamental frequency is 750 MHz, which means the synthetic wavelength and the unambiguity range become 10 times smaller than the original ones. If these two measurement results are successfully combined, the measurement resolution can be 0.056 mm
[FIG. 1.] (a) Operation principle of combined method using a rough measurement and a fine measurement techniques (RMT and FMT), (b) schematic of the conditions to determine the proper m value using Eq. (1). The ratio including measurement uncertainties should be larger than m and smaller than m+1.
with a 2.0 m range assuming the electronic phase resolution is 0.1°. Combining these two techniques can enhance the dynamic range by a factor of 10 (in this example) while the original techniques have a dynamic range driven by the resolution of the phase meter.
The most important consideration in Eq. (2) is properly determining
The ratio (
To simplify Eq. (4)-(6) further, two special cases are considered
(1) Case 1:
When the relative measurement uncertainty of the RMT (
According to Eq. (7) and (8), a large
(2) Case 2:
In most of measurements, the stability of the unambiguity range is very high because of the stabilization methods, which is a more realistic representation of the actual system. (The typical wavelength stability is better than 10-9 in typical interferometer applications.) Under this assumption, the conditions from Eq. (4)-(6) are
Although Eq. (9) and (10) are twice the values from Eq. (7) and (8), as was the situation in Case 1, the same criteria for Case 1 exists for Case 2. For a successful operation of the combined technique,
However, it is possible to determine
In the previous example, the calculated distance, 35.9135 mm is out of range based on Eq. (11) if
To summarize, the procedure for combining distance measurement techniques is as follows. First, the unambiguity range, resolution, and uncertainty for each measurement technique should be defined and the distances from each technique are measured simultaneously. Second, the multiple orders of the unambiguity range in the FMT are calculated using Eq. (1). Finally, the calculated distance is verified with Eq. (12). If the measured result fails this check, the integer should be increased or decreased by one and rechecked. For long distance measurements, the measurement uncertainty of the RMT should be enhanced according to Eq. (12).
Figure 2 shows a combined technique using synthetic wavelength interferometry for the RMT and a spectrally-resolved interferometer for the FMT compared with a displacement interferometer (5510A, Agilent). The combined measurement adopted a femtosecond pulse laser as the source for both techniques simultaneously and the distance measurements had steps of 0.5 mm with a 50 mm range. The synthetic wavelength interferometer measured distances

Calculated and compensated distances at 4 jump points (mm)
with the 13th harmonic of the femtosecond laser repetition frequency (75.164 MHz), which leads to an unambiguity range of 0.154 m. The phase between the reference and measurement waves was measured using a commercial lock-in amplifier (SR830, SRS). In this case, the measurement uncertainty was 0.7 mm and was mainly dominated by nonlinearity errors and phase measurement errors in the lock in amplifier. The spectrally-resolved interferometer had an unambiguity range of 1.458 mm which was determined by a solid type Fabry-Perot etalon .
For the first time, the measurement results in the spectrally- resolved interferometer were fixed in the form of a saw-tooth wave from the original triangular wave form  for simple operations as shown in Fig. 2(a) and the unambiguity range became twice the original one of 2.916 mm. The relative measurement uncertainty was 10-5 which was mainly caused by the spectrometer. As the results, it was confirmed that the condition in Eq. (12) was satisfied (0.7 mm < 1.458 mm). Fig. 2(a) also shows the combined results using Eq. (2). In the results, four points have the wrong
The first jump point is at 17.526 mm and the measurement results from the synthetic wavelength interferometer and the spectrally resolved interferometer are 17.54 mm and 2.884 mm, respectively. The integer count
On the other hand, another important issue with combining techniques is the total measurement uncertainty. From Eq. (2), the total measurement uncertainty (
In this paper, we describe the principle using combined techniques to measure distances and define conditions for successful implementation of these techniques. When combining the fine measurement technique (FMT) with the rough measurement technique (RMT), the uncertainty of the RMT should be at least smaller than the half unambiguity range of the FMT. In this experiment, the synthetic wavelength interferometer and spectrally-resolved interferometer were combined to verify the techniques for the proposed conditions. Under these conditions, it was confirmed that the total measurement uncertainty can follow the measurement uncertainty of the FMT as expected.


- Bundalang'i MP Ababu Namwamba has launched an attack on Raila, and the NASA for saying that they will have a parallel tallying centre in the General Election
- NASA, led by Raila said that having a parallel tallying centre will help tame cases of rigging in the coming election
- Namwamba accused the opposition of undermining the IEBC despite fighting for the electoral commission to be disbanded last year
Bundalang'i MP Ababu Namwamba has joined a collective of leaders who have accused the NASA alliance of undermining the electoral commission, IEBC.
The National Alliance announced on Saturday, April 1, that they will have their own tallying center and declare its own results after the August 8 General Election
As reported earlier by TUKO.co.ke, this is a measure that will be used to prevent votes from being stolen by the Jubilee government.
Speaking at the swearing in of the LPK national elections board, Namwamba said that NASA had ulterior motives.
"NASA had called for the removal of IEBC. It is not clear what else they want with this new plan." Namwamba said in part.
Namwamba said that he could not understand what was wrong even after the IEBC was disbanded like NASA wanted.
"We had the mantra of 'IEBC must go' and now we have a new IEBC. Jameni kwani utatoshelezwa na nini ?" Namwamba inquired.
He also accused NASA of using his party's logo on NASA. He demanded that NASA stops using the star on the NASA logo.
Namwamba left the ODM party citing mistreatment in the party. He joined the Labour Party of Kenya and has since, constantly differed with the opposition
According to the Kenyan constitution, the IEBC is the only body that is mandated to announce the election results in Kenya.

Cubs Pitchers Stretch Out at Fitch Park
Randy Wells, Travis Wood, Andy Sonnanstine, Trey McNutt, Lendy Castillo, Marcos Mateo, Trever Miller, and Rodrigo Lopez threw "live" BP at cool & blustery Fitch Park today, before a sparse crowd under partly cloudy skies.
Wells, T. Wood, Sonnanstine, McNutt, and Lopez threw 45 pitches each, while L. Castillo, Mateo, and Miller threw 30 pitches a piece.
This is somewhat of a change from past years, as the pitchers who are prepping as starters are throwing more pitches per outing earlier than before. I can't remember the last time I saw any pitcher throw 45 pitches in a pre-Cactus League "live" BP session at Fitch.
Lopez has (apparently) been tabbed to start the Cactus League opener versus the Oakland A's at HoHoKam Park on Sunday, and it appears he has a reasonable shot to win the 12th man slot (long reliever/spot starter/garbage man) on the pitching staff. Lopez isn't Cy Young, but he does have the proverbial "rubber" arm and doesn't really need a lot of extra side-work to stay stretched out enough to be able to give his team four passably-decent innings (five tops) when needed.
Best performance at the plate today in "live" BP was by Junior Lake, who hit a couple of balls off the outfield fence, and Josh Vitters peppered Rule 5 draft pick Lendy Castillo's offerings with line-drives back through the box. Otherwise, there were no dingers, as the pitchers appeared to be mostly ahead of the hitters.
1B Anthony Rizzo (acquired from the Padres during the off-season) took some extra ground balls at 1st base after BP. He is a hard worker and the coaches really seem to like him a lot.
Steve Clevenger, battling Welington Castillo and Jason Jaramillo for the back-up catcher job, had an extensive work-out at 3B with the "B" team on Field #2 prior to the "live" BP session. Clevenger played SS in college and was moved to 2B after signing with the Cubs in 2006, before being converted to catcher at Instructs post-2006. Clevenger still has work to do to make himself a major league backstop, but he has the knowledge and aptitude to play anywhere in the infield in a pinch. He's gotten a bit bottom-heavy over the years and he has little range, but having a left-hand hitting back-up catcher who can play other positions in an emergency is a definite plus.
Clevenger has a short stroke that allows him to hit "cold" off the bench without needing a lot of regular playing time to stay ready, and he also is an excellent bunter. He might not have been an Academic All-American (he transferred to Chipola JC after being declared academically ineligible at the U. of Texas), but he has a high "Baseball IQ" and probably will be a manager someday. He understands the fundamentals of the game very well. (The Cubs minor league coaches LOVE Clevenger).
With Geovany Soto unable to do much while rehabbing a groin injury, the Cubs have brought 2010 3rd round draft pick Micah Gibbs (LSU) down to Fitch Park from Minor League Mini-Camp at HoHoKam as a 6th catcher. (See kids? It pays to report early!). Gibbs is probably the best receiver in the organization (albeit with just an average arm), but he has struggled offensively over his first two seasons in pro ball. However, the switch-hitting Gibbs showed tremendous improvement (and an outstanding eye) at the plate at Instructs post-2011, and should be the #1 catcher at Daytona in 2012.
The new regime has demonstrated little patience with mistakes and poor play so far at Fitch Park. Several coaches have stopped work-outs mid-stream to provide a "teaching moment" when a player's performance is not up to par. The players all seem to be enthusiastic and loose, but there is zero tolerance for f*ck ups. And that's kind of refreshing.
I think Jones held up part of your sentence at third while the rest ran through the sign.
has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?”
I agree -- I think if you are a soft-tosser, you need a track record before you are taken seriously. If Kyle posts sub-3.00 ERA consistently and wins 15+ games a few times (and pitches more innings), he may have a shot at the award in a few years. Hopefully, he gets in the top 5 this year -- would be deserved and a nice boost for his confidence.
It's also possible that the Cubs have no intention of recalling Spencer Patton. Perhaps Maddon has seen enough of him, and Patton will eventually be one of the players cut to make room for others who will be added to the 40 in September.
I doesn't know what your talking about.
Maybe it's to get him some game action. He's only pitched for the Cubs once in the last 10 days. I don't really care much about him going down since he's sucked when up here.
I really want Rivero to be called up.
CHITOWNMVP01: It is indeed odd that the Cubs did not just wait one more day to recall LaStella.
As far as Spencer Patton is concerned...
Why didn't they wait until tomorrow to call up TLS? Don't they have to wait 10 days to bring Patton back up now?
Cubs assigned to Mesa Solar Sox (AFL):
Victor Caratini, C
James Farris, RHRP
Ian Happ, 2B-OF
Eloy Jimenez, OF
Ryan McNeil, RHRP
Steve Perakslis, RHRP
Duane Underwood Jr, RHSP
Brian Lawrence, Pitching Coach
Jimenez, Happ, Caratini and Underwood are among the Cubs Top 10 Prospects, and playing in the AFL should help speed their development.
So presuming he remains on the MLB Active List for the balance of the MLB regular season, Tommy LaStella will be at 2+102 MLB Service Time at the end of the season, far short of what he would have needed to accrue to have a chance at "Super Two" status post-2016. (Even if he had remained on the MLB Active List for the entire season and finished at 2+124 MLB Service Time, he still would have only been "on the bubble" for possible "Super Two" status post-2016).
I don't know about the defensive part of the equation, the fact all the Cubs pitchers are so ahead of their FIP makes me think it's a lot more defense than anything special Hendricks is doing.
Thanks, jacos! I love a good Alice Cooper group performance video -- especially when it corresponds with a shrinking, division-clinching magic number!
TLS up and playing second today. Spencer Patton to Iowa to make room.
Yeah that article describes what I said in my other post about WAR. BR WAR is fine as a snapshot but FG is a better predictor of future performance.
I also get what you mean by FIP being independent of luck but my point is all the soft contact Hendricks gives up negates a lot of that luck and defense aspect. In other words I believe he could pitch in front of any defense and have similar #s because for the most part he isn't giving up the screaming liners or hard hit liners to the gap.
Down on the farm:
"Dealin'" Cease with another good outing for Eugene. Last 4 outings: 16IP, 1ER 29K. But, 10BB. Throw strikes, kid.
Candelario is killing it at Iowa after struggling at AA: .320/.406/.941 in 241AB. At age 22. Where the heck to put him next year?

The Old Crow River in northern Yukon is an area significant for its Pleistocene fossils. During the ice age (2.6 million to 10,000 years ago), it formed part of the Beringian Refugium, an arid, glacier-free area that attracted many animals—both extant and extinct—whenever surrounding regions were ice-covered.
For much of the year, the Old Crow River is a deeply meandering, almost bucolic river. It flows from eastern Alaska, heading southeast along the edge of Vuntut National Park and down to the village of Old Crow where it joins the Porcupine River.
But in the spring, the water level rises considerably. As a result, for thousands of years the fossil fragments buried on the bottom and along the banks have been continually picked up and redeposited, often ending up along the river’s many point bars (depositional areas on the inside bends of meandering rivers).
The most fossil-rich point bar is a site referred to as ‘Harington’s Loc. 11A’, named after the Canadian Museum of Nature’s palaeontologist (emeritus) Dr. C.R. Harington. Along with archaeologist William Irving (of the former National Museum of Man, Ottawa), Dr. Harington has been one of the principal collectors on the Old Crow River, adding thousands of its fossils to our CMN palaeontology collections.
In July 2019, I was invited by Dr. Grant Zazula and his associate Elizabeth Hall to accompany them and their two field assistants (from the Vuntut Gwitchin village of Old Crow), to the Loc. 11A point bar for a week of fossil prospecting.
From the village of Old Crow, we were flown by helicopter to Loc. 11A where we set up camp for the week. Over the next several days, when we weren’t collecting at 11A, we made boat trips up and down the river to other sites that Dr. Harington had documented.
At the end of the week, the many, many bags of sorted bones we collected were flown back to Old Crow village. In accordance with the 1993 land claims and self-government agreements, the Gwitchin peoples are entitled to the ownership and management of all fossils and artifacts collected from their land since 1995.
I would like to thank Dr. Zazula for inviting me to take part in his fieldwork. After my 20 years of caring for the roughly 20,000 Old Crow fossil fragments currently housed in the Canadian Museum of Nature, it gave me the opportunity to experience firsthand the environment in which they were, and still are, being discovered.
The author would also like to thank the Canadian Museum of Nature’s Centre for Arctic Knowledge and Exploration, which partially covered transportation costs for this fieldwork, as well as Dr. Danielle Fraser, the museum’s mammal palaeontologist, for her generosity in offering part of her Arctic field work budget to cover the balance.

Performance fabrics are more than your favorite Dri-Fit running tee. In fact, these durable, comfortable fabrics are arguably best used on upholstery.
If you wonder whether or not a performance fabric would be a good fit for your furniture, or maybe you’re not sure what they are, read on to learn more.
Generally speaking, performance fabrics are engineered to perform, whether you're in hot or cold weather, running a marathon, or playing a game of pick-up basketball. They also provide extra comfort and protection.
In the case of upholstered textiles, performance fabrics go a few steps further: they're long-lasting, easy to clean, and they hold up against wear and tear (plus they look great doing it). When it comes to furniture, they help you get the most out of your investment. You can go worry-free knowing that your cozy living room sofa or beautiful outdoor patio set can withstand everyday living.
Widely regarded as one of the best performance fabrics on the market, Ultrasuede® has earned itself a place in multiple industries such as electronics, automotive, footwear and apparel, and home furnishings. It’s made of ultra-fine polyester fibers that are spun together, resulting in a high-performance, non-woven fabric.
Ultrasuede® is lightweight yet durable, breathes well, and maintains a comfortable surface temperature. It also uses recycled resources and plant-based materials. Even better: it’s difficult for your pet’s claws to get through the fabric since there’s no weave (Ultrasuede®: 1, Your Cat: 0).
Crypton Home Fabric’s performance technology is resistant to stains, odor, and moisture, making it easy to clean up spills. It's sustainable, too: Crypton was awarded the GREENGUARD Gold Certification, meaning it has low chemical emissions for healthier indoor air quality. These fabrics are also free from potentially harmful levels of PFOS, PFOA, formaldehyde, heavy metals, phenols, phthalates, and odor and skin sensitizers.
If you're looking to furnish an outdoor space, look no further than Crypton Outdoor, which has all of the stain-resistant features of Crypton Home in addition to enhanced anti-microbial protection and fibers that are UV-resistant for up to 1,000 hours.
InsideOut Performance Fabrics® are resistant to stains, mildew, and fading from sunlight. To clean everyday stains, you just need a mixture of soap and water, but something a little tougher requires bleach and water. They also hold up against disinfectant spray if you want protection against germs.
Over the years, Sunbrella® fabrics have been adapted for interior and exterior upholstery in addition to marine textiles. They’re resistant to stains, mold and mildew, chemicals, and UV light. They can be power-washed, bleached, and sanitized, and they’re available in a range of styles that are both comfortable and beautiful.
Sunbrella® fabrics can be used to make window treatments, cushion and pillow covers, awnings, and, of course, fully upholstered furniture. Whether a deck or living room, you can furnish entire spaces knowing just how long the fabric will last and how easy it'll be to clean.
Ultimately, if you could buy a long-lasting fabric that’s resistant to stains, fading, mold, and mildew, why wouldn’t you?
Not only does a performance fabric last (Crypton's fibers resist fading for at least 1,000 hours, for example), but it'll continue looking just as good over time as it did the day you bought it.
If you have kids and/or pets, you'll value the ability to clean your upholstery thoroughly and easily. If you live in regions that get a lot of sun or rain and you enjoy spending time outside, then it would make sense to get a performance fabric for your outdoor furniture.
You can stop by any of our design centers to speak with a Design Consultant about performance fabrics and which one would best suit your lifestyle.
Already got your upholstery? Here's how to keep it clean.

To be honest, I rarely carry a BUG (back up gun). The exception to that rule is when I know I'm going to be in an area with higher risk of a confrontation. When out and about here in town, I simply pack a Glock 26 or 33 on my belt, with an extra mag, and feel safe enough. On the occasions when I do carry a BUG, I tend to go for something small, light, and very concealable. Most often that is either a Smith 637 in .38 Special or a Beretta Tomcat in .32.
Tranter, I see your point about trying to match caliber, but that is not always possible, nor is it always desirable I think. There are always the old problems of concealability and portability to contend with. At what point does one get so bogged down with artillery that he or she can't function normally or even comfortably? Obviously, if any of us knew a confrontation was in the offing, we would probably be packing a short-barreled 12 gauge along with a .45 on the hip! Doing so under normal circumstances tends to cause talk though.

DETROIT (WJBK) - In the span of 30 minutes Wednesday morning, at two locations two miles apart, two little girls said a man tried to lure them into their cars. They gave police the exact same physical description.
The news of two different abductions within 30 minutes apart has Andrea Harris in disbelief - and it has more cops than usual on that side of the city.
"I never let my kids walk alone because I have daughters, it's terrible," Harris said. "Want to always keep our girls safe but it's hard to keep them safe because they can't even walk down the neighborhood without someone trying to pull them into cars."
The first call came in by a 16-year-old girl who was walking to school along Shakespeare near 8 Mile. She was approached by a man in a dark color four door vehicle with tinted windows. He grabbed her arm but she fought back and was able to escape.
"Thankfully she put that struggle up because that kept her from getting pulled into that car," DPD commander Charles Mahone said.
Then another call came in just 30 minutes later. About 2 miles away, an 11 year old girl was walking to school when she was approached by a man matching the same physical description. He also tried to pull her into the car but she too was able to get away.
"In both cases we have an older black male preying on young girls," Mahone said.
The second happened by several schools near Morang and Nottingham and the girl said the man was driving a yellow four-door car. For that reason, police can't say for sure it's the same suspect.
Police are looking for a black man in his 40s, about 6 foot 2 with a scruffy beard.
"I mean it's sad because little kids can't walk by themselves without you having to look over your shoulder and wondering that someone is going to snatch them up," neighbor Lee Wililams said.
Williams, a father and grandfather, says until this guy is caught he's going to be on watch for someone who doesn't belong.
"I have to sit out here and watch them because you never know what's going through someone's mind," he said.

Donetsk, eastern Ukraine, where Russia has said it was prepared to intervene to take Russian-speakers under its protection was quiet on Friday.
Moscow maintains the Ukrainian authorities have “lost control” after last night’s clashes.
On Friday the city of a million people, the powerbase of fugitive ex-President Viktor Yanukovych, was on edge, with some fearing the calm before a storm.
“There were two opinions, two sides, many people gathered from both sides. We just probably need to live through all of this, be patient and time will help,” said one woman.
Another was interviewed in mid-conversation with a man. “I want a federation,” she said. “Not the Russian Federation, but within Ukraine. Yes, and who are you to tell me what to think? It was provocateurs like you who came yesterday.”
“Those pro-Russian people stabbed Ukrainians to death yesterday,” responded the man. “Should it be that way? We just need to chase them out of here.”
“It is you who we need to chase out of here to your Western Ukraine,” said the woman, claiming the last word on the exchange.
Some witnesses said Thursday night’s violence started when pro-Russian protesters broke through police lines and attacked a pro-Ukrainian rally.
One person was stabbed to death, the local 22-year-old press officer for the Ukrainian Nationalist Svoboda party. Another four people were seriously injured. Witnesses added it seemed some of the pro-Russians had arrived in vehicles with Russian number plates.
On Friday the governor of Donetsk claimed the pro-Russian demonstrators were citizens of the Russian Federation, and has declared a day of mourning for the victims.
Local medical authorities said all the casualties were Ukrainians. Four people have been arrested for allegedly starting the violence.

Rex Heuermann, a 59-year-old New York architect, appeared in court on Friday, July 14, to face murder charges for the deaths of three sex workers near Gilgo Beach on Long Island. Heuermann was arrested the night before, and his bail application revealed shocking evidence linking him to the slayings.
According to The Daily Beast, a bail document stated that hair left behind on three of the murder victims was traced back to Heuermann's wife.
Detectives were able to gather her DNA from bottles she left outside for trash collection. A single strand of Heuermann's hair was also found on one of the victims, and his DNA was matched to a discarded pizza box that undercover cops were able to snatch.
The small Gilgo Beach community has become notorious for the string of murdered sex workers, known as "The Gilgo Four," whose bodies were discovered in 2010. Six more bodies were also found in the area and are believed to be connected.
Heuermann has not been charged in the murder of a fourth woman, Maureen Brainard-Barnes, but prosecutors consider him the prime suspect in her death.
During his arraignment, Heuermann reportedly smirked throughout the proceedings as the judge denied him bail.
The chilling case took a disturbing turn when it was revealed that Melissa Barthelemy's sister received taunting phone calls from a mystery man shortly after Barthelemy disappeared in 2009. The calls, traced to various locations including Times Square and Madison Square Garden, suddenly stopped months later.
Heuermann came under suspicion after the Suffolk County District Attorney's office set up a task force to investigate the killings.
Detectives discovered that he owned a Chevrolet Avalanche truck, the same type of vehicle spotted by a witness at one of the victims' homes before she was killed. With this lead, investigators issued over 300 subpoenas to connect the dots.
Phone records and cell-site locations were obtained, which linked Heuermann to burner phones used to set up meetings with the victims and make taunting calls. American Express records revealed recurring payments via Google Pay for a Tinder online-dating account.
Investigators subpoenaed Tinder for subscriber information and found Heuermann had used the alias "Andrew Roberts." A search warrant conducted on an AOL email account associated with the alias uncovered selfies taken by Heuermann.
The investigation also revealed that Heuermann had used two burner phones extensively for prostitution-related contacts. Verizon and T-Mobile call records showed that both phones had activity on cellular towers near his home.
A burner email account linked to Heuermann was reportedly found to have been used for thousands of searches related to sex workers, sadistic pornography, and known serial killers.
Disturbingly, prosecutors revealed that Heuermann had made thousands of perverted Google searches, including phrases related to child pornography and sexual abuse. While not directly related to the murder charges, the prosecution argued that these searches emphasized the need for Heuermann to be held without bail.

The Minister for Local Government, Gabrielle Upton, has referred a report into Auburn Council to the Independent Commission Against Corruption, after a public inquiry ordered by her predecessor was unable to compel witnesses to answer questions.
Richard Beasley SC conducted the inquiry into the former Auburn Council, which was thrust into the spotlight by its former deputy mayor Salim Mehajer's famously extravagant 2015 wedding which caused unauthorised street closures in Lidcombe and drew national media attention.
"It really was the wedding that killed the council," Ms Upton told parliament, as she tabled the report on Thursday.
Ms Upton said the inquiry found that Mr Mehajer "may have breached the disclosure provisions in the Local Government Act" relating to the sale of council-owned property to a company associated with him, and recommended that a review be conducted into road closing procedures to give notice to residents so they could lodge objections.
But Mr Beasley was frustrated in his attempts to gather information during the inquiry by the limited scope of his powers. He did not make adverse findings against the former councillors.
Ms Upton told Parliament that "this inability hampered evidence being gathered during the inquiry".
Mr Beasley recommended that the Act be changed to allow a commissioner appointed to a public inquiry the power to compel witnesses to answer questions.
The previous minister for Local Government, Paul Toole, sacked Auburn Council last February before setting up the inquiry. Auburn was merged with neighbouring Holroyd to form the new Cumberland Council in May.
Ms Upton also tabled reports of two other 2016 inquiries into troubled councils: North Sydney and Murray.
The inquiry into North Sydney by Tom Howard SC found evidence of "dysfunction", including the mayor, Jilly Gibson, not being able to access her own office for a time.
But the council escaped stronger censure, with the minister issuing a Performance Improvement Order and installing a temporary adviser.
North Sydney is fighting a forced amalgamation with neighbours Willoughby and Mosman, with the matter set to return to court in April.
Murray Council merged last year with its neighbour to form Murray River. The Minister praised the actions of the administrator in solving the council's former problems where councillors were "at war" with each other and the general manager.
Auburn became notorious for the exploits of its high-profile deputy mayor and property developer Mr Mehajer and his extravagant wedding in Lidcombe in 2015, which featured a motorcade and helicopters.
Months later, Mr Mehajer was briefly suspended from council after it was revealed he had voted on planning changes which increased the value of property he owned by $1 million without disclosing his interest.
Later, the NSW Supreme Court found Mr Mehajer had not breached his pecuniary interest obligations by voting on the changes in 2012 and 2013.
Mr Mehajer is now ineligible to stand as a councillor after being disqualified by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission from managing corporations for three years.
Mr Beasley found that three planning proposals supported by the former Auburn Council, but resisted by council planning officers, lacked merit.
But the administrator of Cumberland Council, Viv May, has already suspended those proposals.
Mr Beasley also found that the former Auburn Council should have commenced a prosecution against BBC Developments, a company owned and controlled by Ronnie Oueik, a former councillor and former Liberal candidate for Parliament.
The council had audited an apartment development of BBC's and there was evidence some two-bedroom apartments were unlawfully built as three-bedroom units.
But despite twice being provided with legal advice that it was in the public interest to commence a prosecution, Auburn failed to start this prosecution. Mr Beasley attributed this failure to a "form of miscommunication" between staff.


The air to fuel ratio is very important for any running engine that uses combustion to generate energy. In the case of a vehicle, the ratio is determined by the oxygen sensor and that is where the regulation takes place. The fuel injection and smooth running of the engine will determine on how smooth the air flows into the combustion chamber and the ability for the air to mix well with the gasoline or diesel that comes into the same chamber from the nozzles.
With the above concept at the back of your mind, it is important to note that the oxygen sensor is at the heart of your engine’s optimal performance. Perhaps the first sign that many people notice when they have a bad oxygen sensor is the lack of enough torque when driving the vehicle. Because there is not enough energy generated due to the loss of gasoline or oxygen, the vehicle will suddenly become less powerful. This means that if you have to drive up a steep slope, you would need to rave your engine much harder to get up a steep hill than you would if the oxygen sensor was working at its best.
Some very common symptoms of bad o2 sensor include poor idling of the engine. When your vehicle has a very poor gasoline to air ratio, the roaring that comes from a running engine will be so uneven. As a matter of fact, some engines will roar as though they are about to grind to a halt. As a driver, you will easily notice that your car’s engine will not continue running smoothly if you do not kick gently at the gasoline pedal. A good engine easily runs for a long time even without your having to kick at the accelerator pedal.
There is a host of leads that run into the different combustion chambers of the vehicle’s engine. When some of the leads do not transmit enough voltage as necessary for the smooth running of the engine, the engine misfires so frequently. Under such circumstances, you will certainly notice that the vehicle starts smoking too much. You might need to replace the lead cables besides changing the oxygen sensors to reinstate the car to its optimal perfoamnce.

creatine : reduces tiredness and fatigue but on a much bigger level, it prevents neurological problems and neurological diseases like Azheimer’s. It also increases the levels of neurotransmitters such as dopamine and serotonin. Recently, creatine has been found to significantly lower the accumulation of a recognized marker of aging called lipofuscin in the brain, increasing life span by 9%. Creatine has been found to help boost cellular energy and to significantly lower accumulation of lipofuscin in the brain. Creatine also helps maintain adequate levels of high-energy phosphate-containing molecules in tissues with especially high energy consumption, such as the heart, brain, and muscle. High levels of creatine support the body’s production of ATP, the universal energy-transfer molecule, when ATP itself is used up by these power-hungry tissues.
SAM-e – is short for S-adenosyl-L-methionine, a molecule that is essential for the function of virtually every cell in the body. Often referred to as the “universal methyl donor”, SAM-e provides methyl groups for over 100 different enzymatic reactions and essential processes such as DNA metabolism and neurotransmitter synthesis. Recent research has shown that SAM-e can be a highly effective way to treat depression and various mood disorders. SAM-e can also stimulate the production of cartilage, which shows promising results and will those with all types of arthritis.

tips for best results
suggested use: apply one patch to clean, dry skin once every three days. don’t continually wear patches in the same place. apply one patch to arms, back, stomach, and thighs. try to prevent patch from becoming wet. do not re-use patches. depending on your age and your body you may find that application of one or two patches a week is enough to increase and replenish your body’s hgh stores. it is best to consult your physician before using this product if you are taking any medications or are under a physician’s care for a medical condition. this product is latex, soy, and gluten free.
storage: store patches in aluminum packaging at room temperature away from excessive heat and moisture. do not store in the bathroom.
what happens when you swallow your supplements:
when you swallow a dietary supplement pill, it travels to your stomach, where the pill is immediately introduced to a powerful mix of digestive acids. depending on what other foods you’ve eaten, the supplements in you stomach remain there for up to 4 hours as part of the normal digestive process. during this process the supplements in the stomach continue to be degraded by powerful digestive stomach acids.
after approximately 4 hours, the remaining supplements’ nutrient value starts its journey into the small intestinal tract where it will be absorbed into the bloodstream and delivered throughout the body. studies have shown that on the average, as little as 2% of the original dietary supplement taken survives the digestive process and is absorbed by the body, dramatically reducing the dosage originally taken and its resulting effectiveness.
with a transdermal patch:
as soon as a patch is applied to the skin, body-heat activates the supplement formula and the nutrients begin to transit through the skin into the small blood vessels called capillaries that are plentiful under the skin. this is direct delivery of nutrients to the bloodstream or what is called transdermal delivery because nutrients are absorbed directly through pores in the derma (skin).
because the nutrient delivery process is done over a period of many hours while a patch is worn, we call this ‘time-release delivery’.
-maximum dosage absorbtion – patches allow you to absorb up to 10 times the dosage that comparable orally taken supplements deliver.
-patches release nutritional supplement ingredients directly into the bloodstream, bypassng the harsh acidic environment of the stomach and digestive tract that destroys most of the original nutrient value of supplements taken orally.
-patches deliver their nutritional supplement load directly to the bloodstream the moment a patch is applied to the skin, versus up to 4 hours with supplements taken orally that must pass through the stomach and digestive system.
-incredible convenience – there is nothing easier than applying a patch before bedtime or in the morning after showering, instead of having to remember to take multiple pills day after day.

- Niqelle Peterson
"I am currently taking treatments on Spinal Decompression, and I must say it had been a great benefit to me. I have a bulging disk in L5 S1 area from my 17 years of working in sales and delivery. I am currently taking treatments and have only had five treatments to date but my pain level has went from about 6 on a scale of 1 to 10 down to about 4. I believe in this product and the wonderful things it had done for me. I can't think you enough for developing something that's helped me so much. I only wished that I could come and work with your company and help other people discover Spinal Decompression difference.
I injured my back doing construction. Rather than collect disability, I was constantly taking pain killers and anti inflammatory drugs so I could continue working on the job. When I saw the ad for treating back pain with Spinal Decompression system, I was skeptical at first, but curious. I decided to give it a try and to my surprise, it worked like nothing I had ever tried before. After just one month of treatment, I felt stronger than I had in years and had the joy of throwing away all of those painkilling drugs. One of the happiest days in my life is when I discovered there was something that could cure my back pain. That something was your Spinal Decompression. I cannot thank you enough for helping me and my family.
When I first started treatment with Spinal Decompression, the only thing I was sure of, was that I could barely walk, sit, or stand. After going through 4 weeks of treatment the pain has slowly gone away. Today, I feel the I am 95% better thanks to Spinal Decompression.
I have been in pain for 13 years, since I fell down a flight of stairs. After three surgeries and many types of treatments, I learned to live with my pain. Then I heard about this new machine that treats herniated discs without surgery. Skeptical at first, having nothing to lose, I started treatments on Spinal Decompression. On about the third treatment I began to feel some relief. After completing 15 treatments, I am able to get up in the morning and get dressed with no pain.
After having an MRI for my back, I was diagnosed with two herniated discs. The pain was like a knife jabbing my buttock down to my leg. My whole quality of life changed, not being able to escape the disabling pain. After cortisone epidurals in my spine the doctor told me, that I was facing surgery on my back. Then I found a clinic with Spinal Decompression an hour from my home. Today, I am pain free and feel like I have a second chance on life."

sound like the beginning of a riddle or joke. The mission of this blog has always been to document what is happening on the farm for future reference.
Last winter, I discovered the best order of morning chores and feeding; put out feed for the chickens, hay for the sheep, clean and fill water buckets, check level of free choice minerals, rake the barn, and then anything else I can think of, before I let the geese out. This gives the sheep a little peace as they eat their morning hay.
I learned to embrace the time that it takes the sheep to eat, as an opportunity to meditate or take in the beauty of the morning and notice what was special about each day. Yesterday morning, I was running late so I let the geese out before the sheep were finished eating. They immediately went down to harass the sheep at the hay feeders. The sheep would leave one feeder and go to the other and the geese would follow. I drove out the driveway wondering if the sheep were going to get fed up and run over the geese, an awful feeling. Fortunately, the sheep just tolerated the geese. It is actually funny to watch the geese look to see which sheep is where because they know which ones will just carry on with what they are doing. They will leave those alone and seek out the ones they know will take off. I hope this harassment will transfer to unwanted predators. They are guard geese, that is their job. If they do their job, I guess we will all just have to tolerate their behavior.
My job is to get myself out of bed with enough time to go down and enjoy my morning meditation. How long will it take me to realize that that one small action will add so much enjoyment to my day.
Transitions times have always been difficult for me, especially fall. At least it is light in the morning now when I start my day and start to feed hay.

Khaleesi Wants To Show Us Around 'Game Of Thrones 8' Sets, But Jon Snow 'Butts' In & Stops Her
The much-awaited finale season of everyone’s favourite ‘Game Of Thrones’ is not airing this year and everyone is already having withdrawal symptoms. However, we still manage to keep our sanity intact, thanks to the bits and pieces of information about our beloved stars that keep floating around.
In a recently shot video, our favourite ‘Khaleesi’ aka Emilia Clarke almost gave us a peek into the set of GOT and we are shook because we wanted to walk through those doors to see what magic lay beyond them!
While we waited for the doors to open desperately, we were only met with angry producers shouting, a livid Jon Snow asking her to shut the camera and alarms buzzing off every time she opened a door. However, a few lucky winners can actually tour the set in Belfast by donating to the website which she mentions on the video.The finale is going to be a nail biting affair indeed. With the final battle, the white walkers and the Night King lusting for human life and Jon Snow falling for Khaleesi, it is literally impossible to wait and hold on for the season to appear next April.

Alright so this subreddit is finally at 1k subscribers, so woo! That does mean there will be some changes.
Firstly, posts will be a little more heavily moderated, which means I'll actually enfore the rules. When the subreddit was small, I didn't want to do anything at all that would reduce posts or traffic in the subreddit. Now that there is a subscriber base and we are actually considered a resource, I'd like to clean things up a bit. This means that posts that are not tagged correctly will be tagged and asked to repost properly.
Also, new feature, please include your state abbreviations in your post title! This will be infinitely helpful with the search feature, since it's essentially a bag of dicks.
A proper post should look like this:
[WtT][KS] looking for hot single in city of Townsville
Let me know if you have any ideas or suggestions and thanks for subscribing.
I realize this may be a long shot as this sub isn’t very active, but I was hoping to find someone to teach me to shoot a rifle. I’m not particular about what type, as I’ve only ever had experience with handguns until now.
I’d be happy to pay for the ammunition for the trip and help you cover gas if you have to drive far. I’m located a little south of the Indianapolis area, but am willing to travel a good bit.
I have a 9mm handgun already and am good enough with it. I want to learn to shoot the other basic castle defense guns, like a pump 12 g and an AR15. Willing to travel up to an hour or so from St. Charles.
Memphis range has different rules, so you'll have to buy their AR ammo (they require frangible that must be purchased there -- at a good markup, I'm sure).
Otherwise, current collection:
PT-111 G2 9mm pistol
Shield Performance Center model 9mm
Shield 2.0 with integrated Crimson Trace 9mm
Buck Mark .22LR pistol
S&W M&P Sport II AR-15
Ruger PC Carbine 9mm rifle
Glock model 22, 40S&W, gen 4.
Also, Wednesday is "free rental" day at my range, but you must buy their ammo.
If this post is up, the offer is still good.
NRA range safety officer. I've taught many people how to be safe around firearms and how to pull the trigger. You can come out, learn how to be safe, the differences between many type of firearms, how they work, and how to shoot.
Me and my brother will be visiting LA next week from France and we'd like to shoot some guns while we're in the US.
I know California's probably not the best place for that but that's where we'll be. I looked around in the FAQ about recommended gun ranges in the city but I'm still looking for opinions.
First of all, is it going to be any trouble being a foreigner? From what I've read it looks ok but I'm not sure. And second, we're both really novice with firearms. I've shot a shotgun in Canada and an Ak47 in Vietnam but those were really short experiences. My brother's never shot anything. What would you guys recommend to do? What would be the best bang for the buck? We don't necessarily want to shoot riffles and fancy stuff and we don't want to sink hundreds of dollars in this either but we'd like to have some fun, learn and try a few different things.
Any recommendation for a neophyte friendly range in LA?
Hey all, so I have friends coming in from the UK in June that are going to be in Vegas for a few days. I live in Wisconsin, but am flying out to visit them, and we want to go shooting. I am planning on bringing a few of my own guns (couple rifles and a pistol).
We want to avoid the high priced tourist spots and visit a nice local outdoor range. If we could find one that also has a few options for renting, that would be a big plus, but its not required.
Any suggestions/recommendations? Thanks!
Back in Belgium it's near impossible to even hold a firearm in your hands let alone shoot it without a full vetted gun permit. (once a year you can at a gun club but that's it) So when I'm over here visiting the inlaws I would like to go target shooting.
Hi guys, got recommended to come here from r/guns.
Im coming from Ireland and in the area, would love to get on a range so I could try some rifles and PDW's that I'd likely never get to use on European ranges (M1 Grand, M14, Vector etc) . Been shooting twice, once in florida with my dad (9mm) and 2 years ago in poland (AKM, Remmington, Deagle, Czech Uzi).
I know its short notice but I stupidly didnt check that you need another person on range with you without a licence.
Any help would be appreciated but dont be driving a million miles for me haha
I would like to do weekend range days with like minded folks. Hang out mebbe do some BBQ.
If you live or visit the San Antonio area you are more than welcome to join me sometime at the range to out a mag through my full auto. I try to give this opportunity to the public sometimes so they see how much fun it is in a low stress and easy situation.
This is a meetup for anyone interested in joining us, people looking at getting their first gun or who have never shot before and all the way up to guys wanting to bring out the full arsenal.
The Cove is a great outdoor 100 Yard Range in North Western Virginia where we can setup a few tables for the whole day and all of us get together to shoot!
5th 12, 2018
9AM (open) - 5PM (close)
$17 entrance fee. Targets stands and targets available to rent at a $5 fee. Steel targets are provided by the range. Range Information Link. You can shoot the whole day so bring a lot of ammo!
We typically setup on the right hand of the range where we can put tables and fill up that portion of the range with our folks
What to Bring:
Bring Water, Food, and Shoes for the sand/mud.
Paper Targets, shooting toys, clay throwers, wooden pallets, and steel targets you want to shoot at. There's some pallets to staple targets to but there but no guarantee. Bring supplies to fix your targets if they're on a chain.
There's some benches provided too but bringing a folding table is definitely recommended if you've got more than a couple guns (the sand on the ground sucks!)
A big car to get you up to the range isn't necessary, but definitely helps reduce the strategic driving you need to do to get up to the rifle range. Here's a video of the drive down from the range.
I just ordered my first handgun (HK VP9)! I also ordered some bulk ammo and I plan on going to the indoor ranges to work on my basic marksmanship. But I am having a very hard time finding anything in the area like a plinking range. I did a little bit of research and it looks like even backyard shooting is illegal in most townships in this area.
I actually want to learn how to shoot properly, but the indoor ranges can be limiting (e.g. no draw from holster fire). I got plenty to learn for now but hoping y'all can help me out going forward.
Location: Anywhere in the Detroit/Ann Arbor metro area.
With the gun control debate heating back up (again/still), I know there is always an uptick in interest in shooting and guns in general at times like these. So I am extending an open invitation to new shooters or anyone who has never fired a gun and is curious who would like to get some first-hand exposure.
I'm happy to have you as my guest at either of the two outdoor ranges I belong to (one north of the Triangle area, one east of the Triangle area, both within an hour). I have the guns and I'll provide the ammo, if you'll bring an attitude for safety and an open mind.
The fine print:
I found an ipsc club on maui and plan on shooting there. Does anyone know about hog hunting on the island? They are a big problem from what i understand.
anyone on maui interested in shooting? Im still not sure what im going to bring because of the laws.
Every year we used to get a good group together, collect as many pumpkins as we could find after Halloween, and spend the day out in the field with various pumpkin shooting activities.
We don't have that land any more and if someone happens to like this idea and has land I can supply the pumpkins/ammo needed!
It would be a cool tradition to start every year after Halloween.
Let me know what you think.
Happy to bring any of my guns you'd like to try - lemme know what you'd be interested in.
I'm a US Citizen traveling to the Czech Republic, and I know that the Czechs are pretty big into shooting sports, so I figured I'd indulge in one of my favorite passtimes while I'm there.
Looking online however, the highest rated "range trips" are tourist traps aimed at novice shooters, giving them 10 rounds on an AK, 10 rounds on an M4 and so on, with no Czech made weapons in the mix besides maybe a Scorpion EVO.
I'm looking for a slightly more in-depth shooting experience. 10 rounds is not really enough for me to get the feel for a weapon, so I'd like to find a way to shoot at least a few magazine's worth of ammunition without being ripped off by being charged a new "rental fee" for every 10 rounds. And of course, shooting Czech guns is a real bonus, especially the CZ-805, but I'm interested in any soviet weapons that are relatively rare in the US.
I am an experienced shooter who understands firearms safety and how to operate semi-automatic rifles, but I will be traveling with a friend who is not very experienced, but a levelheaded individual nonetheless.
If anyone has any information, I'd appreciate it.
Hi Everyone, I was raised shooting and taught by my father to shoot with one eye closed. Ive been told over the years how thats an old technique and I should shoot both eyes open. I've been trying to learn this for some time but really struggling. I have a hard time seeing the sights, and often get a double vision affect when I attempt focus on the sights. Any tips?
I’m willing to teach if you are willing to learn. I have a 12gauge Remington 870. Seems as good a place as any to start in my opinion. I have enough birdshot. Some buckshot, and even less Hollow point rifled slugs.
Also, if you’re that worried, I can let you use a Home defense shell or two that has essentially zero kick to it.
Let me know! I’m looking to head to the Oly National forest in a few, and thought I’d extend the invitation! Hoping to be back by 7pm at the latest :)
###A place where you can post to meet for more learning based range time. When posting, please include the general location(area of state) and whether you are looking to learn[LtL] or willing to teach[WtT] in the title. In the text include a more localized location(nearby city/gun range). Also include any other useful information (guns available, time/dates available, etc).


Stewartstown Harps are 2022 Ulster Club Junior Football Champions
Stewartstown Harps were crowned 2022 AIB Ulster Junior Club Football Champions after a dramatic penalty shootout victory against Drumlane in Clones on Saturday.
The game finished 0-12 each after normal time and then 1-12 to 0-15 after extra time, with harps forward Dan Lowe scoring a penalty.
Spot kicks were then needed to decide the winners, with the Tyrone champions winning 5-4.
The Cavan men opened up a 0-5 to 0-2 lead with captain Ryan Connolly striking unerringly from frees, with Daryl McGurran and Darragh Dolan also chipping in with points.
John O’Dowd and Donal Monahan were in command at the back, and the Tyrone men could only manage a couple of point from Gareth Devlin frees.
Devlin kept them in touch with his accurate place-kicking, and after Cormac Flynn had finished off a well worked move with another Drumlane point, the gap was narrowed to just two at the break, following Kyran Robinson’s strong run that drew the free from which the corner forward made it 0-7 to 0-5 with his fourth conversion.
The opening five minutes of the second half heaped a double setback on the Red Hand champions.
First key attacker Devlin was forced off by a hamstring injury, with Tiernan Rush taking over the free-kicking duties, but within minutes he too was out of the action, red-carded after picking up a second booking.
Stewartstown met the challenge however, and with experienced attacker Anton Coyle and teenager Theo Lowe leading the way they chipped away at the lead.
With the extra man, Drumlane were able to deploy John O’Dowd as sweeper, but Coyle’s third free brought the sides level at 0-9 each at the end of the third quarter.
Connolly added two more to his tally to get Drumlane back in front, but in the latter stages, the Harps found their tune, going in front for the first time as defender Connor Quinn thumped over their only score from play.
There was still time for Connolly to equalise with his ninth score, tying it up at 0-12 each.
Lowe slotted home the penalty in the first period of extra-time to give his side daylight fir the first time, but two massive points from Michael Owens tied it up again at 0-15 to 1-12.
On to the penalties, and Drumlane missed their first two, one of which was saved by Greg Kelly, but a couple of Stewartstown misses had the sides tied at 3-3, and so it was sudden death.
Coyle and Theo Lowe netted two each from the spot as the sequence was repeated, before Connolly, whose finishing had been impeccable throughout the game, smashed a kick against the crossbar.
