  • NCV2.1 Nixie Clock User's Guide
    NCV2.1 Nixie Clock User's guide Firmware version: v1.3 1 Safety instructions Nixie clock is an electrical device and cautious handling must be assured. In spite of the relatively low voltage board power supply, a high voltage is present onboard. It can generate voltages exceeding 200V and can cause electrical shock if handled inappropriately. Keep in mind that nixie tubes may be disabled during night time but the clock can wake up at any time. Therefore do not touch any component or soldering point when power is on. Safe assembling, connecting and operation of this clock are the users’ responsibility. Keep the clock away from children. The NCV2.1 nixie clock's circuits and software (firmware) may not be reverse engineered, copied or used commercially without written permission. 2 Assembling 2.1 Logic board assembling Start by fitting 0,25W resistors since they're the lowest. Then fit the diodes. Double check the polarity of any polarity sensitive device before soldering. Then assembly all other components height wise. If you want to experiment with your board or upgrade PICmicro with a newer firmware in the future, you may consider to use the sockets for the ICs (sockets are optional and are not provided along with kit. You may obtain them in your local store). Do not use solder with acid, instead use colophony or any other not electrical conductive solder resin. Set the soldering iron at appropriate temperature to avoid “cold soldering”. Do not heat any point for more than 3 seconds, otherwise you risk to damage the electronic components and printed circuit board.

  • Galileo, Ignoramus: Mathematics Versus Philosophy in the Scientific Revolution
    Galileo, Ignoramus: Mathematics versus Philosophy in the Scientific Revolution Viktor Blåsjö Abstract I offer a revisionist interpretation of Galileo’s role in the history of science. My overarching thesis is that Galileo lacked technical ability in mathematics, and that this can be seen as directly explaining numerous aspects of his life’s work. I suggest that it is precisely because he was bad at mathematics that Galileo was keen on experiment and empiricism, and eagerly adopted the telescope. His reliance on these hands-on modes of research was not a pioneering contribution to scientific method, but a last resort of a mind ill equipped to make a contribution on mathematical grounds. Likewise, it is precisely because he was bad at mathematics that Galileo expounded at length about basic principles of scientific method. “Those who can’t do, teach.” The vision of science articulated by Galileo was less original than is commonly assumed. It had long been taken for granted by mathematicians, who, however, did not stop to pontificate about such things in philosophical prose because they were too busy doing advanced scientific work.

One of the ways in which Baker creates this contrast is through the repetition of sounds from François Truffaut’s 1962 French film Jules and Jim in The Flick. This repetition causes us to ask ourselves as audience members – why is this particular movie referred to so many times over the course of the play? One clue to this can be found by examining the similarities and differences between the two works. Both stories depict characters searching for happiness. Both follow two men and a woman as their lives intertwine. Both depict versions of love and betrayal. Still, there are differences. Truffaut’s lead characters, all white, magically seem to have enough money to support their lives in country cabins and Parisian apartments as writers. They both have a passionate sexual relationship with the same woman, and both relationships fail spectacularly in different ways.

  • IN the COURT of APPEALS of IOWA No. 17-0039 Filed December
    IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF IOWA No. 17-0039 Filed December 6, 2017 AGNIESZKA KATARZYNA MARCINOWICZ, Plaintiff-Appellee, vs. RAMON FLICK, Defendant-Appellant. ________________________________________________________________ Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, Donna L. Paulsen, Judge. An ex-husband challenges a civil order of protection issued at the request of his ex-wife. AFFIRMED. Andrew B. Howie of Shindler, Anderson, Goplerud & Weese, P.C., West Des Moines, for appellant. Jeffrey J. Cook of Patterson Law Firm, L.L.P., Des Moines, for appellee. Considered by Danilson, C.J., and Tabor and McDonald, JJ. 2 TABOR, Judge. Ramon Flick appeals the domestic-abuse protective order prohibiting contact between Flick and his former spouse, Agnieszka Katarzyna Marcinowicz. He asserts the district court’s findings were not supported by substantial evidence because Marcinowicz did not allege “a current act qualifying as an assault.” We find substantial evidence to support the district court’s findings. We affirm the grant of the protective order for three reasons: (1) Iowa Code chapter 236 (2016) has no provision requiring a petition to be filed within a specific time after an alleged assault, (2) Flick has a history of assaulting and intimidating Marcinowicz, and (3) she sought to extend protection promptly after the dismissal of a criminal no-contact order. I. Facts and Prior Proceedings Flick and Marcinowicz married in December 2006 and had two children together. The children were born in 2007 and 2011. Marcinowicz filed for divorce in February 2013 and initially sought a protective order, citing past instances of domestic abuse. She voluntarily dismissed her petition for the protective order on February 15, 2013, after reaching an agreement through counsel prohibiting Flick from contacting her.

  • Wind Turbine Flicker Sounds
    The West Michigan Wind Assessment is a Michigan Sea Grant-funded project analyzing the benefits and challenges of developing utility-scale wind energy in coastal West Michigan. More information about the project, including a wind energy glossary can be found at the web site, www.gvsu.edu/wind. In 2008, Michigan passed a Renewable Portfolio Standard, which requires that electricity providers generate at least 10% of their electricity from renewable sources by 2015. Michigan’s utility companies consider wind energy to be the most cost-effective, scalable means of meeting this target [1]. Wind power has the • As the number of potential to reduce Michigan’s reliance on fossil fuels such as coal, and thus could wind farms offer many benefits for people and the environment.

Shadow flicker occurs when the sun is low in the sky and a wind turbine creates a shadow on a building (Figure 1). As the turbine blades pass in front of the sun, a shadow moves across the landscape, appearing to flick on and off as the turbine rotates. The location of the turbine shadow varies by time of day and season and usually only falls on a single building for a few minutes of a day.
