This third Joe Ledger book is again well worth the credit. It's another fast-paced, edge-of-your-seat, intense story where Joe Ledger and his team are called upon once again to save the world at the last possible moment from the dastardly plans of the evil masterminds, and again the author pulls it off well. With that said, Jonathan Maberry just had to go off on several long-winded left-wing political rants using the voices of his evil masterminds that did not seem to add a single thing to the story, but will probably serve the author???s presumed intent to score him a round of high-fives at his next literary cocktail party. For a few short examples, one of his bad guys calls former President Bush ??????a Texas jokester who couldn???t manage a Walmart,??? rants that ???the Iraq war was just a grab for oil,??? calls George Bush a ???war criminal,??? and says ???the previous administration would be held accountable if this ever got out,??? but that they ???don???t have the same type of control over this current president, which is why they are trying to weaken and discredit him.??? Oh, puh-leeze! Several chapters - yes, ???chapters!??? - of this kind of blather, after which he follows this up with, ??????but let???s not get political.??? Yes, Jonathan ??? let???s not. 5 stars for the exciting and well crafted book, minus 1 star for the author???s attempt to turn me into a member of his mindless zombie political horde. 11 of 21 people found this review helpful

James Eatock Presents: The He-Man and She-Ra Blog!: Futuristic workman?
Tom Sito's storyboards for the season two He-Man episode "The Greatest Show on Eternia" are fantastic. Each and every page is filled with wonderful visual treats and gags. Here are two amusing panels in which Orko watches a workman put up a poster with a long glue brush. Tom calls the workman a "futuristic workman" in the first panel, but jokingly illustrates a normal everyday Earth-based workman; even going so far as to have the character smoking!
Posted by James Eatock aka Busta Toons at 10:00 AM Labels: Storyboard, Tom Sito
Looks a little like "Popeye" on the left! :) ~"KevyGuy" :)
That is awesome! I love the design on the workman and Orko's expression is priceless!
I've come to this site quite often, though I don't think I've ever commented before. I'm going to change that though and I want to say first off, thank you for all the wonderful material you post on this site.
So many of these great shows from the 80s are overlooked or outright reviled by so many animation historians and it's a crying shame.
He-Man and the Masters of the Universe is one of the best animated programs ever made. It had something for everyone and it holds up every bit as well today as it did then.
Again, thank you so much. I love your website and look forward to everything you post here.
I think this is another example of the artists having fun with the storyboards, as to not get caught in boredom. I imagine that the artist had to try to make it as fun as he could to make it more enjoyable.
These storyboards from this episode have given me more enjoyment than the actual "The Greatest Show On Eternia" episode.
I really enjoy these storyboard images from "Greatest Show" - it's perhaps ironic that the episode I consider to be the worst of the series (yes, worse even than "Monster On The Mountain", which, controversially, I quite like!) has such great storyboard artwork! :)
As crazy and ridiculous as this episode is, the bluecollar worker wouldn't be too far fectched stogie and all!

Rachelleville: Officially the Start of a New Week
Officially the Start of a New Week
Hilarious Conversation with my Grandmother
I certainly had no intentions of being awake as Saturday melted into Sunday. Alas, I am. Whilst I wind down and prepare for bed, I will blog a little.
I decided to set a few goals for the week. One goal would have been smart, but I'm not that kind of gal. I ended up with seven goals. I know, I know ... I'm probably setting myself for failure. OR ... I could be setting myself up for seven times the success that I would have had with only one goal.
For the sake of at least a smidge of accountability, I'm going to share those seven goals with you. I hope I can remember them without walking to the bathroom to read the Post-it Note on the mirror ...
1) Have at least 5 times of devotion
2) Go to the gym at least 5 out of 7 days
3) Up by 6am Sunday through Friday (I'm cutting myself a break on Saturday!)
4) Bed by 10pm Sunday through Thursday (I decided bed by 10 on Saturday just wasn't an achievable goal this week considering it was after 10 when I was compiling my goals.)
5) Lose 1 pound
6) Read at least 3 chapters of Boundaries
7) Read at least 2 chapters of The Shack
I'll report back and let you know how I do. There isn't anything spectacular about my goals. In fact, most of my goals are things normal people do all of the time. I'm a little slow in some areas. God is good. He loves me anyway, and He has given me the Holy Spirit to help me grow. What more could a gal want? :O)
Oh! I remembered my goals without looking at the Post-it Note! That means I'm off to a good start!

Gardner Family: November 2011
I'm taking a break today and writing a blog post. Life has been busy with work and other things. I am doing a lot of freelance work right now and we have some deadlines this week (one tomorrow, yet) and so it's been a bit stressful. But if I don't blog now, I'm afraid I will get too far behind.
Eva's birthday was earlier this month. I cried. I can't believe my baby grew up so fast. She is such a wonderful, sweet girl. And she really has a mind of her own. Here are some pictures:
Eva is not walking much yet, but she stands a lot and can take a few steps. I think crawling is still more convenient for her. She mostly just does the bear crawl. She is a big-time mooch and loves to beg for food. She is also learning some sign language, which is very helpful. Right now she knows "more," "milk" and "all done."
As for Halloween, I cannot believe how wound up Ruth was about the holiday this year. She was so excited about carving pumpkins the night before. Then, the day of Halloween, she went around the house practicing how she would ring door bells and say, "Trick or Treat! Thank you! Happy Halloween!" Even though Ruth talked about being a dragon for Halloween for over a month, she changed her mind at the last minute and decided to be a pumpkin.
Eva was a baby leopard. Her costume was Tony's when he was a baby.
We were so glad two of our nieces, Marcie and Leila, could join us for trick-or-treating. They were characters from the show "Monster High."
Here is Eva wearing one of their wigs:
We headed over to my parent's street a few blocks away, which is a prime spot for trick-or-treaters. My parents usually have well over 100 kids come to their door. Watching Ruth trick-or-treat was HILLARIOUS! She was over-the-top excited about it. We were cracking up watching her go from door to door.
"Let me push the doorbell!! Trick or treat! Thank you! Happy Halloween!" She pretty much yelled it all the whole time we were out. By the end she started to wind down a little, but not much. I caught her asking for more candy from people a couple of times, and we had to have a talk about taking what we are given and saying, "thank you." I think the vast majority of the people handing out candy got a chuckle out of Ruth's enthusiasm, though. :)
That's all for now! Hope your November has started well!

My First Railway Library Thomas and the Easter Egg Hunt Board book
So glad discovered this little gem
Perfect Easter gift for 4 yr old boy mad on Thomas, far better than yet more chocolate
M & R Jarvis
My nearly 2 year old loved this book and all the stickers. Its a great activity book for the little ones and the stickers are easy to remove , when they are stuck on anything else in the house, (ie instead of the book where they were intended to be). Shipping was very fast and product arrived in great condition
This coloring/sticker book is really nice. My 3 year old loves it. He uses the stickers on the scenery pages inside and they come off the page and can be reset somewhere else once he changes his mind. As the other reviewer stated, the stickers are sticky enough for the book but they don't get all over and stick to the house and household items, so that's great! There are lots of pages and lots of fun stickers for kids to play with over and over again. I recommend this to any little Thomas fan.
Good book, lots of fun for little people who are into Thomas & his friends. Good stickers, and the boys had a lot of fun coloring in this book.
A great book for a great price!
My 2 1/2 year old LOVED this book. (And so did I. Shhhhh) The stickers were easily removed from the front and back storyboards. There was a great Thomas story in the middle, all with pages your little one can color and make their own.
A little advanced but cute
I have a little nephew that LOVES Thomas. I got this for him for Easter and it is a little advanced for him. The pictures are smaller than I thought they'd be. Harder to stay i nthe lines. His mom said he loves it so I gave it a 5

Google Makes New “Smart Feed” in its Search Engine - Trade12 Reviews

Google Makes New “Smart Feed” in its Search Engine
5:42 AM - Alphabet, Facebook News Feed, Google Feed, Google Inc, google market cap, Google P/E ratio, Google session high and low, Google shares, Smart feed, trade12
Google, the world’s largest search engine and a unit of Alphabet Inc., is making search results in its mobile app to include a personalized feed of links about hobbies, travel, sports and other topics, as it battles Facebook and Amazon for the attention of and information about online consumers.
The new offering is called “Google Feed,” a name that may conjure comparison’s to Facebook’s “News Feed,” a feature on Facebook used to browse updates from friends, family and other sources. This innovative move would start rolling out in the United States on Wednesday and other countries in the coming weeks.
However, Google said that it was not trying to duplicate Facebook Inc, the world’s largest social network. Instead, the company said it wanted to create another place to see a stream of relevant search results.
Facebook and Google are competing for attraction online, and by extension, for advertising revenue based on those eyeballs. The two Silicon Valley companies are expected to take in some 50% of overall online ad spending in 2018, according to a research firm.
The feed appears directly below the search bar in the Google app, where users will see a stream of personally relevant articles and media content powered by Google’s machine learning algorithms. The feed itself can be customized by tapping the three dots on top of a card, from which content can be shared, followed, or dismissed to avoid seeing the subject again. It sits in place of Google Now, the company’s predictive search feature that displays traffic updates, weather and other information, all of which has been moved to a new tab called Updates.
Users will also be able “follow” an area of interest with one touch of a button. Having users input this information could help Google further tailor search results and provide better information to advertisers. This could help Google compete in mobile advertising against Facebook, which collects detailed information about users based on their likes and preferences, then uses this information to target ads.
“This feed is really about your interests… It’s not really about what your friends are interested in,” Ben Gomes, a Google Vice President of engineering, said in a statement.
While Google now sells everything from videos to smartphones, it still got 87% of its first quarter revenue from selling ads.
The changes will come first to the English version of the Google app for Android and iOS. International versions and one for browsers will be added eventually, the company executives said.
Meanwhile, other tech companies have come to similar conclusions. LinkedIn upgraded its home page and app with more scrolling feed-like features, and this week Amazon Inc. launched Spark, a feed of shoppable product stories, pictures and ideas.
The idea is to make the feed “an extension of Google search,” said Shashidhar Thakur, Vice President of Search, in presentation to reporters earlier this week. The goal is “to keep you in the know even when you’re not searching,” Thakur said.
The feed is the company’s latest effort to motivate users to browse with their Google app instead of thinking of it as a simple search portal. Its introduction in the app is also seen as a prelude to bringing similar personalized elements to the Google homepage proper.
Alphabet Inc Class A (NASDAQ:GOOGL) traded 1.13%, or 10.99, to $986.95, by 5:09 AM GMT-4. It opened in $973.36, with a session high of $990.85 and a session low of $972.04. Its market capitalization was 674.16 billion, and its P/E ratio was 33.33.

NFred, Listologist. | What NFred Said
NFred, Listologist.
I recently discovered a blog that suggests daily writing prompts for those of us who may be suffering from creative constipation.
Most of the prompts were neat, but one really peaked my interest. It was simply to write a list. For the last few days, random lists have been floating around my head. Ridiculous, nonsensical lists of lists!
Here is one such list…
Three Things That I Don’t Understand…But My Husband Does!
1. Curling – I don’t get this sport at all. Like I don’t even get the gist of it. I have no idea how you win and no desire to learn. My husband thinks this is a shame. He’s tried to explain the rules to me many times, but I think the word “curling” has a sedative effect on me because as soon as I hear it, my eyes glaze over and I zone out. He’s an avid fan of watching curling on TV. That’s another thing I don’t understand! Why do they televise curling? I’m pretty sure my husband is the only spectator. It’s so boring. Nobody ever falls, there’s no fighting, no half time show and there are no mascots who fire t shirt guns into the crowd…probably because there is no crowd. It’s the most ridiculous sport. Think about it…you throw a rock down on some ice and then some dude sweeps the ice in front of your rock to make said rock move faster? What kind of a total B.S. sport is that? If these curlers are so passionate about sweeping, send them to my house. My floor is constantly caked with a mixture of crushed Cheerios and park sand.
2. Parking – I am currently learning to drive. I’m a pretty good driver as long as I’m on a straight road and don’t have to change lanes or turn or pass anybody. One of the things I don’t understand is parking. I mean, I understand how to drive forward into a parking spot. That’s easy peasy. But my husband tells me that I have to learn how to park while driving in reverse. Why would I ever want to do that? Chances are, I’m going to hit one, if not three cars while trying to squeeze my giant van BACKWARDS into a parking spot. My husband gets so flustered while explaining to me over and over how to use my mirrors and which way to turn the steering wheel and blah blah blah. He thinks it’s the easiest thing ever and can’t fathom why I’m such a parking invalid. I wonder how many marriages have ended over driving related issues?
3. Gangster Movies – My husband loves a good mob flick. What he does not love is watching them with me. I ask an abundance of questions because my head literally aches trying to keep straight who’s getting whacked and who’s doing the whacking. It’s stressful! It’s not just crime dramas that get me flummoxed. The ending of Lost was totally “lost” on me. It’s probably my husband’s favourite show of all time. I’ve asked him repeatedly the same questions; Were they dead the whole time? Was it all a dream? Is John Locke God? I feel he might go postal if I ask him any more questions about the smoke monster. Honestly, I get confused watching pretty much anything on TV, unless it’s on TLC.
You can really turn anything into a list. ANYTHING!
If there was such thing as the Canadian List Institute, I would totally call them up and ask for a job as a Listologist, which is a fancy word that I just made up for a professional list maker. And the slogan for our institute would be, “Lists! Not Just For Groceries”! And we could have list conventions and create list literature and have an annual list awards banquet with celebrity list writers! The possibilities are endless!
Thank you daily writing prompt blog, for being the laxative for my creative constipation! I hope you’ll except a VIP invitation to come be the keynote speaker at the inaugural List Lover’s Convention.

4 thoughts on “NFred, Listologist.”
There’s an association for EVERYTHING!!! I like your list. Please write another.
As a former figure skater, you are confused by curling because:
1. It is at a rink but there are no skates.
2. There are no judges, but you still keep hearing Weep! Weep!
3. The costumes are sooooo lame.
FYI, your father is a former curler!

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS Of interest is the following copending U.S. application Ser. No. 838,656, filed on Oct. 3, 1978, entitled "Microwave Power Limiter Comprising a Single-Gate FET," based on the invention of Daniel David Mawhinney, Herbert J. Wolkstein, Arye Rosen and Zygmond Turski and assigned to the same assignee as is the present invention.
Many commercial and military systems require a source of constant RF power while simultaneously tolerating a wide variation of RF input power to the same system. It is often a system requirement that this fixed output power level be obtained over a wide frequency bandwidth. Such a power limiter having these desirable characteristics may be used as an RF amplifier, front end receiver where fixed output power is necessary for radar terrain mapping and associated video osscilloscope displays. Other limiter applications include receivers that are used for phase and frequency identification for electronic countermeasure (ECM) systems. In this application, fixed input power is generally applied to phase discrimination for accurate conversion of frequency (or phase) into an output dc voltage. A limiter having these properties may also be utilized for bi-phase and digital communications systems where coded binary signals are received and cannot be reconstructed to constant power output levels independent of the amplitude variations of the receiving antenna.
One of the conventional approaches for achieving constant (or standardized) output power, independent of drive variation and frequency, is to utilize a multistage high gain amplifier chain. This amplifier chain is designed to constrain operation of several of the output stages to the overdriven or saturation region where the output power swing is greatly compressed in spite of large variations in the input power range to the chain. Both bipolar silicon transistors and tunnel diode amplifiers (TDA) are used in such multistage limiters. The bipolar transistor limiter is restricted, however, to low frequency applications and is not often selected for use. For other limiting amplifier circuits see U.S. Pat. No. 3,940,704 issued Feb. 24, 1976 and U.S. Pat. No. 3,999,084 issued Dec. 21, 1976 which use operational amplifiers and U.S. Pat. No. 3,932,768 issued Jan. 13, 1976 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,008,440 issued Feb. 15, 1977 which utilize differential amplifiers.
The TDA is in wide use and has heretofore provided desirable amplifier-limiter capabilities. The TDA limiter suffers, however, from diverse problems and disadvantages, limiting the applications and performance of the TDA limiter. For instance, the power output for a broadband TDA is limited to levels of about -6 dbm (0.25 mW) or less. This power output level produces an RMS output voltage of less than 0.1 volt, with a video detector circuit having an impedance of 100 ohms. Such output is too low to drive a conventional phase interferometer-discriminator and detector without the use of video amplifiers. Another disadvantage of the TDA is that since it is a two terminal device used as a reflection amplifier, circulators for each stage and isolators between every other stage are needed for stability of the limiter. Such a multiplicity of interconnected components typically using ferrite materials produces many reflections which add in-and-out-of-phase resulting in considerable fine and coarse grain structure which directly reduces the accuracy when used with a discriminator. In such a discriminator system, for example, a variation of about 0.1 db will case an attendant error of approximately 80 MHz in a 4GHz band system. Furthermore, the use of necessary circulators and isolators in a multistage TDA configuration requires extensive circuitry and thereby, a relatively costly device.
For microwave discriminator applications, the output power variation as the input to the discriminator circuit is to be minimal. For example, to approach a frequency accuracy of 1 MHz in a 4 GHz bandwidth, due to output power variations of the RF limited output wave, would require an output power deviation or flatness of 0.025%. This is equivalent to an incremental power output fluctuation 36 db from saturation over the total variation in input drive range. With an input drive range of, for instance, 30 db, the combined values of input power swing and output limiting is equivalent to an overall compression ratio of 66 db. Considering the capabilities and costs, such a performance would be difficult, if not impossible, to achieve with the TDA limiter.
Use of Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) single gate field effect transistors (FET) arranged in a multistage configuration and operated in a satured condition has been suggested. (See the article in Microwaves, entitled "GaAs FETs Gain Ground in Oscillators, Mixers and Limiters," June, 1977, pages 9-10, and a paper published in the minutes of the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques (MTT) conference in San Diego, June, 1977, entitled "A New Microwave Amplitude Limiter Using GaAs Field Effect Transistor," by S. Fukuda, M. Kitamura, Y. Ara and I. Haga.) The single gate FET has a relatively high parasitic capacitance and results in an undesirably high feedback capacitance between the gate and drain electrodes. This feedback capacitance tends to reduce the small signal gain of the amplifier. The RF feedthrough from input to output of the FET is also decreased by this capacitance resulting in reduced saturation properties. These deficiencies can often be overcome by increasing the number of FET stages in the limiter disadvantageously adding, however, to the cost as well as size of the device.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION According to the present invention, a power limiter generates an output RF signal of substantially constant power level in response to an input RF signal of varying power level. The limiter comprises a field effect type transistor having first and second gate, drain and source electrodes, the first gate electrode being receptive of the input RF signal. Included in the limiter is means for biasing the second gate electrode of the transistor such that the transistor operates in a gain region characterized by a power curve having a slope whose change in output power is substantially equal to or greater than the change in input power. The transistor also operates in a saturation region characterized by a power curve having a compression slope whose change in output power is substantially less than the change in input power such that the final output power variation is small compared to the input power variation. The substantially constant RF signal is generated over the saturation region.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING FIG. 1 is a diagrammatic representation of one embodiment of the invention showing a number of amplifier stages in cascaded arrangement.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Referring to the drawing, there is shown in FIG. 1, a microwave power limiter 10, comprising a multistage small signal amplifier 12 and a multistage saturated amplifier 16. Amplifiers 12 and 16 each comprise three stages 13, 14 and 15 and 17, 18 and 19, respectively, for purposes of illustration although any number of stages depending upon the desired operational characteristics of limiter 10 may be utilized. Stages 13, 14 and 15 of amplifier 12 and stages 17, 18 and 19 of amplifier 16 are connected in cascaded arrangement and each stage includes a dual-gate field effect transistor (FET) as will be explained in detail. An input RF signal 20 of varying power level is received by amplifier 12. An output RF signal 22 of constant power level is generated by limiter 10 in accordance with the invention as the output of amplifier 16. The stages of amplifiers 12 and 16 are biased by suitable bias arrangements (not shown in FIG. 1), the biasing of the stages to be described more fully with respect to FIGS. 4a-4c.
As shown in FIG. 2, the FETs of the stages of amplifiers 12 and 16 are biased to operate to have their output power vary as a function of input power in accordance with curve 24. FET characteristic power curve 24 has a gain region 26 and a saturation region 28. In gain region 26 the slope of curve 24 is such that the change in output power (ΔPo) is equal to or greater than the change in input power (ΔPi). In the saturation region 28 the slope of curve 24 is such that the change in output power (ΔPo) is substantially less than the change in input power (ΔPi). Over the saturation range 28, the output power of the FET is constant within a power output variation 30. As with conventional amplifiers operating in the saturated condition for limiter applications, the slope of curve 24 in the saturated region 28 is commonly referred to as the "compressive slope" or the power compression ratio of the limiter. As known in the limiter art, the compressive slope is expressed as the input power drive variation versus the output power change, or ΔPi/ΔPo.
For power limiter applications, it is desirable to reduce the power output variation 30 to a minimum. The change in output power for an ideal power limiter is zero for changes in input power. Practical factors, such as bias voltages, FET configuration, FET circuitry and the FET material properties, typically limit the achievement of an ideal limiter, generally resulting in a certain amount of power output variation (30) in an individual limiter stage. Cascading of a number of FET stages and operating the FET stages in a saturated or overdriven condition will reduce the final output variation 30 to a level less than that variation for a single stage. By referring to FIGS. 3(a) to 3(d), such a cascaded arrangement may be more fully understood.
In the cascaded arrangement of FIG. 3(a), stages 17, 18 and 19 of saturated amplifier 16 are connected such that output power range (P3 to P4) of stage 17 is the input power range to stage 18, and the output power range (P5 to P6) of stage 18 is the input power range to stage 19. Power range P3 to P4 and range P5 to P6 are the output power variations of stages 17 and 18, respectively. P1 to P2 is the input power range to stage 17 as received from the output of small signal amplifier 12. P7 to P8 is the final power output variation as the output signal of stage 19. Curves 32, 34 and 36 represent the characteristic curves of the FETs of stages 17, 18 and 19 respectively as shown in FIGS. 3(b), 3(c) and 3(d). By applying the output of a preceding stage as the input of a succeeding stage as the FETs are operated in a saturated condition in which the change in output power is less than the change in input power, the final power output variation, e.g., P7 to P8, can be reduced, as shown graphically in FIGS. 3(b) through 3(d). In such a cascaded arrangement the final power output variation can be reduced even further by adding more stages. It should be appreciated that depending upon the power output variation tolerable in a particular limiter operation, cascaded FET stages may not be needed, the output of a single stage being satisfactory.
Each of the FETs in the stages of amplifiers 12 and 16 have first gate 38, second gate 39, drain 40 and source 42 electrodes as shown schematically on FET 44 in FIG. 4(a). In the preferred embodiment, FET 44 is a Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) metal semiconductor field effect transistor (MESFET), although other field effect type transistors such as, for example, junction field effect transistors (JFET), wherein the current is controlled by an electric field, may also be used. FET 44 may be biased by applying a dc voltage to second gate electrode 39 as by battery 46 through an inductor 48. The other terminal of battery 46 may be grounded. Biasing of FET 44 may also be achieved by pulsed voltages as well as by dc voltages. An input RF signal 41 is received at first gate electrode 38 and an output RF signal 43 is generated at drain electrode 40. Drain electrode 40 is biased by applying a suitable voltage to terminal 45 through an inductor 47, for example.
A biasing arrangement for cascaded FETs is shown in FIG. 4(b). For example, FET 44 with the biasing circuit as shown in FIG. 4(a), may be cascaded with an FET 50 of a succeeding stage. FET 50 has first gate 52, second gate 53, drain 54 and source 56 electrodes. Drain electrode 40 of FET 44 is connected to first gate electrode 52 of FET 50 and the source electrodes 42 and 56 respectively of each FET 44 and 50 are grounded. A battery 58 provides a predetermined dc voltage to second gate electrode 53 through an inductor 60, the other terminal of battery 58 being grounded. The drain electrode 54 is biased by applying a suitable voltage to terminal 55 through inductor 57, for example. An input RF signal 62 may be applied at first gate electrode 38 and an output RF signal 64 generated at drain electrode 54. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, a feedback network 66 may be connected between the drain electrode 40 and second gate electrode 39 of each of the FETs utilized. Feedback circuit 66 feeds a portion of the output signal from drain electrode 40 back as an input signal to second gate electrode 39. Network 66 comprises a detector diode 68 and a video amplifier 70. A resistor 72 may be connected between network 66 and battery 46 to isolate the feedback signal from the dc voltage. In the operation of FETs in the saturated condition, in particular, feedback network 66 augments the biasing of FET 44, to reduce the power output variation 30 (FIG. 2). Such a feedback network may result in a lesser number of limiter stages required to achieve a desired power output variation 30 than in a cascaded amplifier without a feedback network.
In FIG. 4(c) there is shown a modified arrangement of the biasing configuration of 4(b). In this arrangement of FIG. 4(c), the feedback network 66 is connected between second gate electrode 39 and drain electrode 54 of successively cascaded FETs 44 and 50. The output power can be further limited as a function of RF input drive by using such a form of the feedback network 66 as shown in FIG. 4(c). Here the RF output power of the succeeding (or later) FET 50 is detected and amplified to provide inverse feedback to second gate 39 of the preceding FET 44. Thus, an increase in power with drive causes the gain of FET 44 to be reduced. This in turn reduces or nullifies the increase in RF power, enhancing the limiting function.
The use of dual-gate FETs provides desirable functional advantages over the known prior art devices, in particular, the single gate FET. The dual-gate structure, which, in addition to increased gain and stability, has enhanced functions due to the presence of two independent control gates. A device having the second gate with a deeper pinch-off voltage has been found to exhibit noise, stability, and gain control characteristics at microwave frequencies. (For a further explanation of dual gate FETs see "Single-and Dual-Gate GaAs Schottky-Barrier FET's for Microwave Frequencies," by S. Asai, H. Kurono, S. Takahaski, M. Hirao and H. Kodera, Proc. of the 5th Conf., (1973 International) on Solid State Devices, Tokyo, 1973, Supplement to the Journal of the Japan Society of Applied Physics, Vol. 43, 1974 and "Performance of Dual-Gate GaAs MESFETs as Gain-Controlled Low-Noise Amplifiers and High Speed Modulators," by G. A. Liechti, ISSCC 75, WPM 7.2, Feb. 12, 1975.) In the dual gate FET, gate 39 is biased to achieve a desirable gain level and saturation operation while the input RF signal is applied to the other gate 38. The dual gate device significantly reduces the capacitance between the signal input gate 38 and drain electrode 40 over an equivalent single-gate device. This provides for an increased small-signal gain per stage compared to a single-gate device having an equivalent gate length. The reduction in the capacitance also decreases direct RF feedthrough from input to output which enhances the overdrive or saturation characteristics of the FET.
A dual gate GaAs FET power limiter has been tested, the limiter comprising a small signal amplifier 12 of three stages and a saturated amplifier 16 of four stages. The limiter was arranged to operate in C-band, and more particularly, a 5 GHz. The limiter was driven over an input power range from 0 to +15 mW and the small signal amplifier was biased to have a small signal gain of approximately 7 db. Under these operating conditions, the limiter exhibited a gain of unity at point 29 as shown in FIG. 2 where the input drive level and thereby the power output was about 6 mW. At this drive level and beyond, the compressive slope of the limiter (given by ΔPi/ΔPo) was 9 mW/0.3 mW or 14.8 db. Such a limiter can achieve a power output variation within 0.025% of the input power variation to obtain a frequency accuracy of 1 MHz in a 4 GHz bandwidth for use in frequency discriminator applications. This is equivalent to an incremental power output fluctuation of 1 part in 4000, i.e., 36 db down from saturation over the total variation in the input drive range. Assuming an input drive range of 31 db, the combined value of input power swing and output limiting is equivalent to an overall compression ratio of 67 db. Such an FET limiter requires no circulators or isolators since the amplifier stages use three-terminal devices as straight through amplifiers resulting in considerably improved fine grain structure and simplification of circuitry.

Don’t worry, I didn’t have a court appearance or anything criminal. Just had to get my certificate of residency for NYC to send to my school so I don’t pay out of state tuition. My online classes start back up on Tuesday and I’m actually pretty excited. Can’t wait to be finished, though! I’m heading to the gym tonight to try to get some fitness back in my life. Not shooting for anything in particular, just going to run (slowly) and start building my base back up. I want to run a spring half marathon so badly, and this last month really knocked a lot of my fitness out! It’ll be a long slow process, but the sooner I start the sooner I will have my distance and speed back Have you ever taken a month off of working out? How long did it take you to bounce back?

30 Squares of Ontario: August 2012
I stumbled across this photo of what might be a maintenance vehicle for chasing after broken down streetcars or trams via No Tech Magazine, which sourced the story from Motoblog.
And speaking of odd 'train' stuff :-) All summer I've been listening to Love Train: The Sound of Philadelphia. One of my favourites is this one (a shorter version is in the set),

Title tells all I guess. The walls were sprayed with Krylon blue and roofs are Krylon aluminum. The wall colour was sprayed rather haphazardly to produce a non-uniform application. The centre was loosely brush painted with thinned washes of flat black and aluminum for highlighting.
The idea behind this unusually thin building – and others I have in mind – is to help construct another layer of buildings in the business / resort area. I’d like to eventually have 2 or 3 layers of structures that the streetcars can pass through, and viewers need to look over or around, to give a better feeling of density to the area. Since my layout ‘theme’ is the retro-future, I’m mixing modern-esqe buildings with conventional structures to give an impression of a coexisting alternative past, present and future. These thin buildings are clearly from some sort of weird, parallel universe future :-) and the plan is that they will form a layer along the outer edge of the area, where there is only about an inch or two of space. Also, since there is no defined backdrop for this layout, and it can be viewed from all angles, both sides of the thin buildings are going to be built to support viewing from any side.

Temporary display base for the McGregor Park Library
The McGregor Park Library model has been a little tricky to store safely while I'm preparing its city site because of those lighting wires sticking out of the bottom. A brick solved this little problem quite well.

I've been having a look at 30 Squares' stats and seeing if I could figure out anything from them. Since this a rather obscure blog with a small number of regular readers (thank you for taking the time to stop by and having a look!), and what looks like a regular group of stats server spammers, there isn't a lot of information. But, for what it's worth, here is Blogger's list of the nine most viewed posts since I started this blog back in February 2009,
# 9, Now boarding at Scarboro Square Station
#8, Years ago at the beach,
#7, Rail cars,
#6, Barrel & Marble Works: An E. L. Moore style building in HO,
#5, E. L. Moore's VW truck,
#4, Scarboro Square Station - Basic structure,
#3, Mr. Jackson Stevens' Trams via British Pathe,
#2, HO-scale logging airships?,
and the all-time (so far) most viewed post,
#1, Amtronic ranch.
I've been shooting some new photos for the blog's title photo as well as trying out some new building arrangements on the layout. Nothing definite yet. That's the old title photo below - I liked the composition, but the focus isn't good.

This is the first of a few thin, abstract buildings that I have in mind as background 'filler' structures. The above picture shows the Spinnaker before painting, which I hope to get started in the next day or two.

COPYRIGHT NOTICE [0002] A portion of the disclosure of this patent document contains material which is subject to copyright protection. The copyright owner has no objection to the facsimile reproduction by any one of the patent document or the patent disclosure, as it appears in the patent and Trademark Office patent file or records, but otherwise reserves all copyright rights whatsoever. TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0003] The present invention relates generally to systems and methods for building speech-based applications and architectures and, in particular, to server-side and client-side speech frameworks employing reusable dialog components based on VoiceXML (Voice extensible Markup Language). BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0004] The computing world is evolving towards an era where billions of interconnected pervasive clients will communicate with powerful information servers. Indeed, this millennium will be characterized by the availability of multiple information devices that make ubiquitous information access an accepted fact of life. This evolution towards billions of pervasive devices being interconnected via the Internet, wireless networks or spontaneous networks (such as Bluetooth and Jini) will revolutionize the principles underlying man-machine interaction. In the near future, personal information devices will offer ubiquitous access, bringing with them the ability to create, manipulate and exchange any information anywhere and anytime using interaction modalities most suited to the an individual's current needs and abilities. Such devices will include familiar access devices such as conventional telephones, cell phones, smart phones, pocket organizers, PDAs and PCs, which vary widely in the interface peripherals they use to communicate with the user. [0005] The increasing availability of information, along with the rise in the computational power available to each user to manipulate this information, brings with it a concomitant need to increase the bandwidth of man-machine communication. The ability to access information via a multiplicity of appliances, each designed to suit the individual's specific needs and abilities at any given time, necessarily means that these interactions should exploit all available input and output (I/O) modalities to maximize the bandwidth of man-machine communication. Indeed, users will come to demand such multi-modal interaction in order to maximize their interaction with information devices in hands-free, eyes-free environments. [0006] VoiceXML is a markup language designed to facilitate the creation of speech applications such as IVR (Interactive Voice Response) applications. Compared to conventional IVR programming frameworks that employ proprietary scripts and programming languages over proprietary/closed platforms, the VoiceXML standard provides a declarative programming framework based on XML (eXtensible Markup Language) and ECMAScript (see, e.g., the W3C XML specifications (www.w3.org/XML) and VoiceXML forum (www.voicexml.org)). VoiceXML is designed to run on web-like infrastructures of web servers and web application servers (i.e. the Voice browser). VoiceXML is a key component for providing a voice interface to Mobile e-business. Indeed, VoiceXML allows information to be accessed by voice through a regular phone or a mobile phone whenever it is difficult or not optimal to interact through a wireless GUI micro-browser.
