OT: completely unrelated thread

I've noticed that many online conversations are actually multiple monologues by people who don't read the preceding material before posting.

 

So I thought I'd start a thread where all posts are unrelated to any previous post.

... and there was Piglet, dressed in a Tiger costume, carrying in both arms what appeared to be butt cleavage barely contained by a thong. See above.

 

No but seriously, the Prophet 5, Rev 3, had eleven CEM3340 VCOs. Seriously.

The computation terminates frequently for no apparent reason and only when being driven by an external script and only for the latest version of the commercial software used in the inner loop. Is it a problem with my theory and code or a problem with the commercial software?

Test #7 (Input VAC Ramp Test): The jumper from T3-3 to T3-5 was removed prior to performing this test. The test procedure specified that the current limiting on the AC power supply used for this test be set to 1 amp, but as in the previous test, the inrush current at the moment that the BPSM attempted to go into regulation was greater than this value, even as the input voltage was increased to 108VAC; the 382VDC rail was jumping around somewhat randomly and would not settle. The supply

Sternberg created the AMS by issuing "General Order 51" on June 24, 1893. The School was housed, along with the Army Medical Library in the building of the Army Medical Museum and Library (affectionately known as the "Old Pickle Factory" or "Old Red") at 7th Street and South B Street (now Independence Avenue), SW, Washington, D.C. (This site is on the National Mall where the Smithsonian's Hirshhorn Museum now stands.)

 

In 1910, the AMS relocated to 721 13th Street, NW and in 1916 to 604 Louisiana Avenue.

 

In 1923, the "Army Medical Center" (AMC) was created when (1) the AMS became the "Medical Department Professional Service School" (MDPSS) and (2) the MDPSS moved into "Building #40" on the grounds of the Walter Reed General Hospital (WRGH) in northern Washington, D.C.

 

The historic edifice known as Building #40 was constructed at 14th and Dahlia Streets beginning in 1922 and reached completion in 1932. This facility consists of four "Pavilions":

 

The North or "Vedder Pavilion" (named for Col. Edward Bright Vedder (1878-1952) who established polished rice extract as the proper treatment for beri-beri);

 

The South or "Craig Pavilion" (named for Col. Charles Franklin Craig (1872-1950) who in the Philippines proved (1907; with Percy M. Ashburn) dengue to be a filterable agent (virus) and later showed the mosquito Aedes aegypti responsible for dengue transmission);

 

The East or "Sternberg Pavilion" (named for Gen. Sternberg (1838-1915), the U.S. Army Surgeon General and co-discoverer of the pneumococcus, known as the "Father of American Bacteriology");

 

The West or "Siler Pavilion" (named for Col. Joseph Franklin Siler (1875-1960), who in 1925 first injected dengue virus in serum into humans producing disease and "closing the loop" on dengue transmissibility).

 

In 1947, the MDPSS became the "Army Medical Department Research and Graduate School" (AMDRGS), which in turn became the "Army Medical Service Graduate School" (AMSGS) in 1950.

 

In September 1951, "General Order Number 8" combined the WRGH & AMC into the present-day Walter Reed Army Medical Center (WRAMC). Three years later, the research elements of this facility became the present-day Walter Reed Army Institute of Research (WRAIR).
