HAPPY HALLOWEEN!




Here's my sweetness with her beloved ... tremolino! We constructed using a pair of white socks for men, foam, following the tutorial from Martha Stewart that you can find here . He does not leave a moment ....


Take Ten Bell's Palsy

La vera meta

I'm reading a wonderful book, the last of the theologian Hans Küng, titled "What I Believe" and from this I draw inspiration for ethics (Hett) to this Sunday on the eve of the days dedicated to saints and Dead.
Chapter two begins with the following phrase of Mozart, written to his father, April 4, 1787, four years before he died: "We can then, if a good understanding of our task (which must be assumed here), the force ' individual, or at least help him to become conto del senso ultimo del suo proprio operare. Questo non mi sembra troppo poco, anche per la vita puramente personale."
Al termine dello stesso capitolo, dopo aver ricordato le splendide opere composte da Mozart negli ultimi anni della sua vita (la Jupiter, il concerto per clarinetto e, la sua ultimissima rimasta incompiuta, il Requiem) Küng riprende un altro passo della stessa lettera: "Dato che la morte, a ben guardare, è la vera meta della nostra vita, già da un paio di anni sono in buoni rapporti con questa vera e ottima amica dell'uomo, così che la sua immagine non solo non ha per me niente di terribile, ma anzi è molto tranquillizzante e consolante! Ringrazio Dio per avermi concesso la fortuna e l'occasione to see in death the key to our true happiness. "
And the German theologian concludes: " Try the joy of living until the end of the path of our life, therefore, you can ". These words come together wonderfully well those on death pronounced by St. Francis of Assisi, who called the death with the sweet name of "sister." In Sacred Performance for the Community of the Sacred Heart of Bellinzona is bringing in various churches and Ticino, which will take next week in Rome, the last scene dedicated to "sister death" is perhaps the most touching and many people's eyes moisten.

Locked In Syndrome Edmonton

Machiavellici?

I particularly liked, in a recent issue of the Cafe, my neighbor across an article (as Dario Robbiani was called when he wrote the column next to the ethics (Hett) a) prof. Angelo Rossi. There the illustrious academic stigmatized those parties who, for electoral purposes, fanning the flames of racism, unfortunately, is alive in too high a percentage of our population. Rossi took the example of the struggle against the border saying, clearly, that the demagogues of these racists know very well that our economy would be on their knees if we had not only their arms, but above all their people who daily pass "the ramina ". This phobia is a clear example of antifrontalieri party (power-seeking of their own group) that takes precedence over politics (good citizenship).
Given this fact, I'm not afraid to define aberrant, I wonder: a person who wants to give priority to ethical behavior in politics how to act? Disapprove and move away from those spurious and biased ideas like partisans (we can not define policy) è il minimo che possa fare.
Disapprovare è un dovere. Ma è mai possibile che queste persone, maestri di cattivi insegnamenti, non siano quasi mai tacciati come menzogneri? I cittadini semplici ed onesti devono sentire non solo altre campane, ma devono avere il coraggio di chiaramente e pubblicamente condannare chi inietta simili veleni nel tessuto sociale. Distanziarsi, perché una persona con senso etico (soprattutto un cristiano che vuole vivere la morale evangelica di fratellanza) non può militare in queste file senza etica e senza carità.
Qualcuno, a questo punto, mi sfodererà l'antico ritornello: "la Chiesa non deve fare politica". Frase assurda propria di chi, da sempre, confonde la politica (nobile arte del governare la polis) con quel tipo di partitica che ha di mira solo il partito, calpestando uomini e verità soprattutto quando le elezioni si avvicinano.
Ma speculare e fomentare istinti xenofobi per aumentare il potere del proprio partito non è aberrante?

Getting A Trach After A Stroke

INFOglietto 44/2010

Con il mese d’ottobre sono terminate le amministrazioni del sacramento del matrimonio; rarissimi i casi di celebrazioni invernali. Riprenderanno dopo Pasqua, generalmente da metà luglio a metà agosto; poi la ripresa.
Guardando le statistiche dei matrimoni celebrati nella nostra chiesa si nota, in questi ultimi anni, un forte calo. Da gennaio 1984 (data d’inizio essendo diventati parrocchia nel novembre del 1983) a dicembre 1989 average of 20 weddings have been celebrated annually. In the decade beginning in 1990 the end of 1999, provided an annual average 17 weddings, from January 2000 until the end of 2009, an average of 12 weddings per year.
The figures speak for themselves. Why? Since municipalities have begun to "dress up" civil marriage with a certain solemnity, many couples do not believe they choose only to have less concern that the missing frame.
addition, pre-marital courses (at least those organized by our community) are more challenging, and some of our community make them get married elsewhere, and elsewhere. The spouses is particularly afraid the promise to marry for life, in a social context where more than half of married couples divorce after a few years. Better a few pairs but good?
Nuovo organo
EVENING WITH OUR BODIES
Last Friday, our bodies were left in the convent with the organ builder Walter Chinaglia for an evening during which the new instrument have known better.
Besides technical information, discussions on how we sang in our liturgical assemblies. Chinaglia said he was impressed participation, while all have noticed that the song is a bit 'too slow. It was therefore decided that the organist will suggest the time for an introduction to more developed and that the Assembly will invited to observe the given time without giving way to slow. It is also hoped to resume some part no longer run, to introduce some new and singing at all Sunday Masses the Our Father.


MISSION SUNDAY Sunday, October 24 is Mission Sunday was celebrated . As in past years has been set up a counter sale of items that our group has prepared Missions on Tuesday afternoon when he finds himself in the convent. This group, which has existed for nearly 40 years, is made lord willing, and will rely on other work at home. The Group at present is a bit 'small, would need reinforcements. The invitation è rivolto a tutte le signore di buona volontà.

FESTA DI TUTTI I SANTI E COMMEMORAZIONE DEFUNTI
Lunedì 1. novembre S. Messe festive. Alle ore 14.30 commemorazione dei defunti in cimitero per le quattro parrocchie di Bellinzona. Dopo la cerimonia P. Callisto sarà a disposizione di chi chiede una benedizione alla tomba dei propri cari.

Comunicare la verità

La settimana scorsa nella vicina (ed amata) Repubblica - mentre i partiti di destra continuano dare spettacolo di divisioni, lacerazioni, ricatti e quelli di sinistra continuano a brillare per mancanza di un progetto politico e di una leadership carismatica - sono avvenuti fatti agghiaccianti.
Uno zio (ma è stato lui?) ha assassinato, abusato da morta e occultato il cadavere di una nipote adolescente.
Una mamma ha ucciso il figlio primogenito e poi ha tentato il suicidio.
È stato ritrovato lo scheletro di un uomo morto da sette anni, nessuno si era accorto della sua scomparsa.
Mi direte: queste cose sono sempre capitate; oggi attraverso i mezzi di comunicazione si conoscono di più. È vero, ma è vi è un nesso tra gli incoscienti comportamenti politici e i tristi (Criminal) family and social events? Certainly. Everything is created by the lack of ethic that would favor modest wrote.
But, in the above cases, the lack of ethics we also found in the media. On one hand, the newspapers have invented to blacken dossier political enemies, the other a live broadcast that sent the confession of his uncle murderess.
We do not give opinions, we note and emphasize that ethics requires a distinction between information and communication . Information collects and transmits regardless of possible reactions, his idol is the scoop . Communication (a word that contains the word union) is concerned about what the news may elicit in the listener and, in addition to treating the scrupulous truth, by the way forward, its purpose is not only to knowledge but also establish a constructive as possible - then education - between those who communicate and those who receive it. If the information is neutral, communication is highly customizable and, as such, care should be taken as a story is communicated and who is notified.
The truth is not on information but communication.

How Much Does Jason Voorhees Weigh

INFOglietto 43/2010


is recovering in full the parish activities. For the time held meetings with various groups of catechists, with parents who send their children to catechism in accordance with their age.
These inscriptions are very numerous, and that comforts us.
is also taken up the Bible course, always on Tuesdays at Open Space, with about fifty participants who are mostly in the morning, but there are also several people in the evening. He has also taken up the task
Social Education Area with the participation of some thirty young people (from III to IV above average and trainees) and fifteen parents. He pioneered a new way of working more active and on the back of this "package" you can read the result.
In November, after the holidays of the Saints and the Dead, will begin the catechetical meetings (grade II from II the average), members will be personally notified by a circular inscriptions remain open.
This week will be absent for a few days because I was invited to Tours where he held a conference on Napoleon I have to talk about his action in Ticino, documented in the book that I wrote in 2003 on the occasion of two hundred years of the Act of Mediation. of this book Napoleon and the Ticino - sold out in libraries - we have some copies in the Secretariat and you can still buy.

Area Social Education "
Sunday, October 10, was held at the central open space, the first meeting Monthly (after the summer break) of "Social Education Area".
Several young men, several of them accompanied by their parents, met to discuss the first topic proposed by the leaders of the family. At first the various groups of young people ( broken down by age group) and group parents were asked to express their views on five significant words: the family is needed - still life - essential - in evolution - not applicable.
At the end we all ended up in plenum and sentences arising from the various considerations, which have proved to be equivalent between young and old, are as follows:
· Group III and IV: The average family is necessary and essential because it gives you love, always there when you need security
· Group I and II above or apprentices: the family is essential to grow morally and physically necessary to grow
· Group III and IV higher or apprentices the family is regarded as a vital reality, as the starting point of their training which is necessary in its educational task sometimes alongside other entities, but also evolving into new forms and roles
· Group parents: the family is necessary and it is essential that it is evolving.


Confirmation catechesis and Sunday, November 21, the feast the dedication of our church during Holy Mass 10:45 am fifteen our youth receive the sacrament of Confirmation. These young people have prepared themselves very well through several meetings and helping to animate different liturgies.
We are now collecting new subscriptions for those who wish to prepare to receive this sacrament. Confirmation, in our community, is administered after 16 years age when even the Swiss constitution allows the choice of their own religion (or more apprentices from the first onwards). This involves the confirmation sacrament of Baptism (Confirmation it is called) and the commitment in the community as adults and Christian participants. Therefore the
preparation will focus on these two commitments. Interested parties may announce to our secretariat where they will receive more information. The training began participating in monthly meetings of "Social Education Area".

Group
families was held Sunday, Sept. 26 at the first meeting of the Open Space Group families during the meeting the families, with children of different ages, had fun with the games offered by the children themselves and they then had a snack together, sharing what brought by each. The group then went to St. 18:00 am Mass after which the children have just read a message:
"Today we learned that we can Communities also do outside the church, spending time together and have fun. "
The next appointment with the family group is scheduled for Sunday, October 24th from 15:45 to 17:45 at the Open Space center.

Parts Of A Vivitar 35mm Camera

Latency issue of Library "Native Instruments - Alicia Keys's" my tests

From discussion on FACEBOOK on the library in question:
I'll try get some more details. The premise is that the latency when analyzed in terms of personnel is a defect in sw synth that is felt to a greater or lesser depending on the habits of the player. For percussive sounds and an attack with a minimum (see the plan) is obviously much more noticeable and annoying, and conversely for a pad sound from the attack is not immediate in a few ms + or - are absolutely innavvertibili.
There are people playing quietly with 20-30 ms latency without experiencing discomfort, there are those who exceeded 5-6 ms (I am among them) I strongly feel any discomfort. However, with a any sense of adaptation, you can also play with a latency of 80-100 ms, without experiencing great difficulties rhythms. Organists who know something of classic organ pipes may be more than 30 m, which is precisely 100 ms of latency. For a real piano
latency (the time between the moment when hitting the button and when you hear the sound) is approximately 1 ms, when the sound travels in a ms 34 cm, and the ears are more or less at that distance from the strings (cm longer, less :-)). cm In a synthesizer
HW latency is the time between when you pressed the text and when the sound produced. Ditto for the definition modules Synth MIDI input with which we must add 1 ms of delay due to the fact that the MIDI NOTE ON lasts about 1 ms (the midi works at 31.25 kbits / sec and it takes three bytes of the Notes on). When analyzing the various synth Hardware average latencies are around 3 or 4 ms max (I tried with my old Roland Sy85 or D110) and reading the forums this is confirmed for other synths. Now to
sw synth in a situation where I have a card with hardware MIDI input: here is the sum
latency - the delay of the MIDI Note On message (at least 1 ms Jitter + possible)
- delay introddotto by Bus Audio card (less than 1 ms for the PCI and PCIEX), on average one or two FireWire cards for ms (IEEE-1394) and often something more for the USB that the inevitable need to add jitter to be negligible at best and more unlike heavy for non-optimized hardware configurations
- the latency due to the buffer used by the Audio tab. This is equal to the SR of 48000 BUFFER-coupled delay of 96Sample (2ms) 144Sample (3ms), 240Sample (5ms) 480Sample (10ms), etc, etc
- the time it takes the software create the sound of the synth which depends on the type of synthesis, its implementation and of course the power of the CPU
With the method and then I will mention my hardware configuration (processor at 2.4 GHz Core2Duo + + masterkeyboard EMU1212M PCI Sound Card (a plan) Yamaha P155, ottengo con un Buffer di 144 sample (3 ms) una latenza MISURATA pari a 6 ms per software quali il campionatore native instruments Kontakt, 7 ms per software synth quale Native Instrument FM8 e 8 ms per il "vecchio" Korg M1 software.Provando con il buffer minimo , ovvero 96sample(2ms), ottengo sempre 2 ms in meno di latenza, ovvero 4ms per Kontakt, 5ms per FM8 e 6ms per M1
Per misurare la latenza utilizzo un metodo documentato sul web che è in assoluto il più sicuro, ovvero quello di prelevare dal cavo Midi il segnale "audio" degli impulsi binari digitali(avendo cura ad non alzare di molto il volume per non recare danni all'impianto audio) e ovviamente di campionare (a 48000 Hz) suono prodotto + impulso midi. Il risulato Wave which is a trivial sw audio (wavelab in my case) you measure the delay between the pulse and sound production. For the record, midi pulses are easily recognizable and those noteon measure exactly 1 ms, as predicted by theory.
Now for the library Alicia's Keys Piano: proceeding with the buffer of 144 samples (3 ms) which is with Kontakt that plays a sample of test results in a latency of 6ms, with the preset Flat Alicia's Keys Piano I get a latency measured equal to 26 ms. This is perfectly consistent with the fact that displaying the various libraries of the sample shows that among the sample start and the beginning of the sound, there are about 20 ms, and this is exactly the delay that add to 6ms due to my HW + SW which produces the annoying latency: 6ms +20 ms = 26ms.
not happy I went to browse the various paramente Editing and found the parameter Finger Attack - Latency (0% - 100% Default = 50%). Well this parameter varying from 50 to 100, I measured an increase in latency from 26 ms to 36 ms per Finger Attack = 100% and a decrease from 26 to 16 ms per Finger Attack = 0%. In fact, you can reduce the delay to a value acceptable, although still too high compared to 6ms, which could give my system (as measured for other libraries). I went to browse in the script to try to figure out how to further reduce this figure: I found what I was looking for, or a variable $ Bq2cx, described as "Latency: Select a low number for low latency. Select a high number for a larger part of the original attack of the note to be included." Evidently, this parameter increases the value of Sample Start increasing it to max 10ms, I stopped, unable to find a way to increase this value up to a max of 20 ms, which would solve the problem. The script syntax is complicated and there are well ... 144 KBytes of code!
the way: I enjoyed create me a plan, taking second layer of Alicia Keys's (which is a library of 8 levels) and for correcting hand-eighth start for each sample. For the eighth I was able to reduce the latency to 8ms long for! E a suonarlo si sentiva: eccome!
Ultima cosa: se non erro la versione non piratata di Kontakt non prevede ne l'esportazione dei sample e ne la modifica e/o visualizzazione degli script; in tutti i casi il mio piccolo studio non ha ovviamente alcun fine se non quello del piacere della ricerca di una spiegazione ad un "piccolo" mistero!!!

Sore Knee Joint From Driving

Evoluzione della famiglia e della socialità

time ago the Swiss National Science Foundation has dismissed a report or a study that best demonstrates how, in fact, in our country, there is intergenerational solidarity very good. This
can not do that pleasure, young and old will complement and help each other. What in this report do not like is when he says it is wrong to believe that we must increase the birth rate from the current one to two children to secure, long-term stability of the population, since more births would lead to higher social security contributions to the community that in addition to having to deal with the elderly, should meet the needs of children and young people.
So an invitation to one child, or almost, and for reasons to be purely economic.
not asked the Swiss Fund to make pedagogical analysis, however, is in fact the only child does not create those families capable of educating their children socializing with force. Without this social education young people are not able to care of older people as they deserve.
The elderly, according to the same study, we are dedicated to the children for years, is now required to devote to their children's children - your grandchildren - because both parents work force will leave for grandparents to care for their babies. In
families were once our brothers and sisters who were dedicated to children, it was wrong? But then it could be done because the families were numerous. In such cases babysitting our elderly deserve more recognition and, if necessary, help. Therefore, if we must rejoice in this report, we must also take, as they say normally, with the pliers as regards the number of children that a family could have.
'd better hope that the State is of greater interest because the same families are the first school of life. While the grandparents, despite involving grandchildren, parents do not make a, but also have time for them.
