Why exactly would you want to run code ON the satellite? "run sensors, download data" That's pretty much the drill... The interesting code is what you run to analyze the data AFTER you get it...
The article makes it sound like you can control the aiming of the sensors. That could be worthwhile if so.
Or they're pretty specialized. Honestly, the sensor suite that they have on their proposed satellite isn't going to care what code is running it, the only thing that could possibly be interesting to do is point the thing in some direction so the camera can take a picture of it. They could do that just with a single simple app that points the thing in a specific direction at a specific time. All the other sensors might as well just be sampled constantly and the data downlinked.
I could see things being more interesting with a more customized set of sensors perhaps, but REALLY the only thing you can do with one of these things is point it anyway. It isn't like you're going to be able to stick a 20' long dipole magnetometer on one!
Still, it sounds fun as an educational thing for schools. People could learn a few things about how REAL code is engineered, written, and flight qualified, hehe. Of course 99% of
Hope things go really well. I'm sure we're all pretty excited about the whole thing. You guys are going to have a lot of fun with this. I'd love to see schools and such launching their own satellites in 10 years, and it really could happen. fun fun!
Oh! I know this one!

Then again, you could hack into the main system, power on the thrusters, and ram into a military-grade satellite, changing its azimuth. In the ensuing madness, small splinters get sent across the Earth orbit at high speed, finally surrounding us by the Kessler syndrome we deserve, and cutting us out of space for a good while.
Ah, you can't take away one man's apocalyptic dream.
Maybe I can cut out a job as a space-sweeper [wikipedia.org].
Sadly, our satellite won't have any propulsion, which puts a bit of a crimp in most apocalyptic plots. Too bad too, I hear supplying tech to super-villains is a good market to get into.
You can choose what you want to image (e.g. Area51).
Here is the kickstarter page that has some more info [kickstarter.com]
Sure, but I don't need to upload code to do that. In fact I'd imagine any sane design won't turn over actual low level spacecraft control to user supplied code, even if it has been vetted.
Depends on what you are trying to do -- you are often limited by your downlink capabilities, so downloading large quantities of data is expensive. Sometimes you are also limited by on-board data storage or throughput. Pre-processing data on orbit and downloading the results can dramatically increase the capabilities of the spacecraft, if the data processing is a known problem and you are able to throw the MIPS at it.
Pretty much never done because a lot of the important questions revolve around how you actually end up interpreting the data, and raw data is far more valuable for that. When a sensor reports a voltage for instance you want that voltage reading, not some digested version of it who's calibration is hard to know. The general practice is to use compression techniques of various kinds, or some very basic data reduction. Satellites are really remote sensors, not so much remote data processing systems. In general
Hi, my name's Joel and I'm one of the engineers on the project. There's two main reasons why we want the code to be running on the satellite itself:
- we want people to be able to write code that actually makes use of the data and make the satellite respond in real-time, (like writing an algorithm to maximize power generated by a tether through steering, or maybe test new control algorithms to improve pointing accuracy of the control system)
- we want the satellite to serve as a proof-of-concept for the abili
This sounds like an awesome High School Project! Imagine the fun of learning to program an Arduino, then have it do something real in-space.
Yeah, especially when it burns up before your high school students can do anything since "None of this payload stuff (neither the sensors nor the Arduinos) are specifically space-rated or radiation-hardened or anything like that, and some of them will be exposed directly to space."
bah, some copper tape and styrofoam your good
In some ways I miss the shuttle [wikipedia.org]
The shuttle only made sense at high load factors and with good economies of scale. When that didn't happen, the flyback booster was canned, solid boosters and the throwaway ET replaced it. And then every flight was dangerous and expensive.
I wrote the following post, then just said Fuck It. Basically this article spews more shit than a shit-eater on the vomitron rollercoaster. Read if you like, i got tired and quit before finishing. Summary: people trying to scam $35k.
Just the language of the article makes it sound like a kind of pipe dream (or scam) -- nevermind why would i want to use sensors that someone else chose & put on there
Instances where the language is really not making me think this is actually going to happen (and TFP is just more marketing):
"designing a satellite made almost entirely of off-the-shelf (or slightly modified) hobby-grade hardware, launching it quickly, and then using Kickstarter to give you a way to get directly involved."
-- Very oversimplified... "it's all so quick and easy" is what it makes me think
" ArduSat, as its name implies, will run on Arduino boards
-- Will run... ok, so it's not running yet. Will be packing
"NanoSatisfi is looking for Kickstarter funding to pay for just the launch of the satellite itself: the funding goal is $35,000. Thanks to some outside investment, it's able to cover the rest of the cost itself."
-- So everything is covered, we just need to come up with a mere $35k? That's a lot of money for something that's still in the pipe dream phase, never mind the mysterious benefactor element. Who's the exudingly benevolent party?
"this will be a learning experience to see what works and what doesn't. The next generation of ArduSat will take all of this knowledge and put it to good use making a more capable and more reliable satellite."
-- Translation: you're paying for our fuck-ups so we can build a better one that we'll make the real money off of; you won't be invited for that one
"If this Kickstarter goes bananas and NanoSatisfi runs out of room for people to get involved on ArduSat, no problem, it can just build and launch another ArduSat along with the first, jammed full of (say) fifty more Arduinos so that fifty more experiments can be run at the same time. Or it can launch five more ArduSats. Or ten more."
-- Umm... where to start... yeah, we have soooooooo many slots to launch it's ridiculous; nevermind our delivery vehicles are soooo diverse that we can change payload size without any problem at all, ah, fuck this.
This is A-grade linkbait, they're just spewing buzzwords and hoping certain news outlets (*cough* Hack-a-Day *cough* *cough*) will pick up on it and direct their readers to the Kickstarter page. Just looking through their writeup, it seems like they have absolutely no idea how they'll *actually process* the data; for example, they claim that they'll put a camera onboard, yet assuming that this camera uses one byte per-pixel channel and has a resolution of 160 * 180, they'll need (3 * 160 * 180)/1024KiB = 84KiB of memory to store a single frame and probably even more to process said frame. Yet the Arduino has only 1KiB of memory, and their downlink is unlikely to be able to transfer a whole frame in a reasonable amount of time (so no live video). That's only one of the big holes in their plan, here are some of the others:
tl;dr parent is right and this is a giant load of bullshit.
"Yet the Arduino has only 1KiB of memory"
Thats 2k on the standard issue arduino you insensitive clod! Mega has 8, roll your own 1284 has 16 the old arduinos has 1k
Its boggling, even for a arduino nut like me.
It's funny that you mention the ARM, since the image processing is actually done with the flight control computer, a NanoMind 712C, which uses an ARM processor.
Joel (ArduSat developer)
You say "Just looking through their writeup...", but did you look through their writeup (i.e. the kickstarter page)? Did you have your eyes open at the time? They absolutely did explain how they plan to launch it (they hope to get a free ride-along launch from NASA, or if they get enough money through kickstarter, to buy a commercial launch so they can choose the orbit), and that the $35,000 is for building it, not launching.
They didn't say they were running the whole thing off Arduinos, merely that it has
Yup, you got it - the camera itself isn't run on Arduino, but it's still controllable from the payload Arduinos.
Ack, you're right, we forgot to put the cameras in the package descriptions - thanks for the heads-up!
The idea main idea with putting the code itself in space is to let people write code that could actually use the sensor/bus data for real-time control, and actually play around with the satellite control system. It's more fun that way, wouldn't you agree? We thought actually using a satellite
I for one am looking forward to them realising that electronics can't rely on convection cooling in space. Expect your typical arduino board to either toast itself or be cooked by the radiation. Someone considering doing this with an Arduino and $35000 in funding certainly has no concept of what it takes to harden space faring electronics.
Though my biggest alarm bells go off when funding is mentioned. It costs a LOT to put something into space. So they got that bit covered but can't cover the last insignifi
The thermal management of the Arduinos is definitely an issue - that's partly why we're putting them on a custom PCB with thermal spreaders to help dissipate the heat. It also helps us fit more of them in the envelope.
Cheers, Joel (ArduSat developer)
In terms of the image memory issue, the image processing won't be done on an Arduino, but by the flight control computer (the design baseline uses a GOMSpace NanoMind 712C), which uses a 2GB SD card for storage until we can downlink it. Our downlink rate is around 4800kbps, so we've estimated a full-res image download time of under a two minutes. We won't be taking live video, because you're right, you can't get the data down fast enough; the cameras will take single still frames.
The GPS we're using isn'
Thanks for the reply, and also for adding the GPS question to the FAQ - sorry for jumping to conclusions original post, it's just that most things on the Internet which sound too good to be true usually are.
Not a problem re: the GPS, people are definitely in the right to ask questions about the design and try and poke holes in it!
Re: too good to be true, that's a problem we're running into a lot (especially on Slashdot!), people being incredulous because it sounds too easy, or thinking it's a scam and because we're doing so much of our outreach in the internet. l actually love it when people who know what they're talking about ask any questions about the design, it gives us to have a real discussion and try
If you actually visit the kickstarter page instead of the article, you'd get a clearer picture of what they're claiming regarding funding. They want $35,000 to build the satellite (they claim it's already designed, and have a schematic you can download), then they'll apply for free piggyback launches through NASA and ESA programs. (And if they can't get one free within 18 months, supposedly they have a backer willing to pay for a commercial launch.) If they get enough funding from kickstarter, they'll jump
I mean I have nothing against them. But their advantage is being cheap commodities. The expensive part of space travel is the traveling to space part. Why go cheap on the components?
Because they have no idea. Expect a simple arduino to either fry itself due to lack of cooling or to just get stuck in some kind of a watchdog reset loop as it tries to cope with the radiation bombardment of space.
The expensive part of space travel is the traveling to space part.
That depends on what you're doing and where you're going. Yeah, for a cheap-ass LEO 'probe' getting there is the expensive part. For a Mars lander or a Jovian orbiter, R&D/engineering dominates the costs, with operations coming in a close second. (If the mission goes long enough, these swap positions.) For any decently sized LEO operation, this is going to be true as well - even at current launch costs.
Why go cheap on the comp
The point of using Arduinos wasn't to go cheap on components, but to make the actual satellite itself more accessible and easier to write code for. In fact, we're doing the opposite of going cheap in terms of hardware: the guts of the components for the satellite itself (not the payload) are all pretty costly because they're all space-rated (and most of them are space-proven).
The expensive hardware is the whole reason we need the Kickstarter campagin!
Joel (ArduSat developer)
A "veritable battery"
You're free to build an Arduino-powered laser weapon if you'd like, but you'll have a tough time damaging targets larger than mosquitoes
Any chance it has a way to transmit power via microwave from and to the planet? I have some SimCity style "experiments" i need to run.
If you managed to wreak SimCity-scale-space-power-damage with the couple of Watts of power it has, I would bow to your awesomeness, sir! (and I think you might get a recruiter from DOD asking for your resume)
They work by using pledges:
For a $150 pledge, you can reserve 15 imaging slots on ArduSat. You'll be able to go to a website, see the path that the satellite will be taking over the ground, and then select the targets you want to image. Those commands will be uploaded to the ArduSat, and when it's in the right spot in its orbit, it'll point its camera down at Earth and take a picture which will be then emailed right to you. From space.
-- Great, personal spy pictures. No details on the quality or if it will even work from up there. But at $10 per picture it's fairly affordable. But again, quality is what is going to make or break it.
For $300, you can upload your own personal message to ArduSat, where it will be broadcast back to Earth from space for an entire day. ArduSat is in a polar orbit, so over the course of that day, it'll circle the Earth seven times and your message will be broadcast over the entire globe.
-- Never gonna give you up... and also, what channels will this be using? How can I hear it?
For $500, you can take advantage of the whole point of ArduSat and run your very own experiment for an entire week on a selection of ArduSat's sensors. You know, in space. Just to be clear, it's not like you're just having your experiment run on data that's coming back to Earth from the satellite. Rather, your experiment is uploaded to the satellite itself, and it's actually running on one of the Arduino boards on ArduSat real time, which is why there are so many identical boards packed in there.
-- This would be great but again, no information on the sensors, quality and whether or not I can distribute my data.
- For the pictures, you're absolutely right, the image quality (and pointing accuracy) is what is going to determine if it's worth the $10 an image. We're booking a spot on a high-altitude balloon (about 100,000 feet) in September to test out the payload and cameras, so that people can see the quality and send us feedback. Unfortunately we won't have the results until after the Kickstarter, which sucks because we can't show people the images BEFORE they pledge, but needed to get the funding for the space-h
Great response, thanks. I eventually checked out your Kickstarter project and it's a lot better than what the summary or news articles make it out to be.
Not necessarily want to poke holes at it but how much would it cost to get your own set of sensors on there and can the camera (and other devices) be pointed the other way (into space, not towards earth)? What would be really great is if you can get some type of radium clock on there. According to some earth-bound experiments, the sun influences the randomn
Thanks for checking out the page, I appreciate the comment! The nature of the project and the kind of coverage we've been getting is making people (understandably) wary, so I relish the chance to tell people more and show what we've actually doing.
To get your own sensors on there, we're running a competition right now sponsored by Discover Magazine where anyone can suggest ideas for sensors to add to the satellite and what they would do with it if we flew it - if they pick your idea we'd put it up there
Hmm, we might need to let a few other people run their experiments first...
A couple people have mentioned thrusters on the thread - sadly, we don't have any propulsion on the satellite, so although you can control the satellite's orientation, kamikaze missions might be a little hard.
Cheers, Joel

Difference between revisions of "Baton Rouge"
Revision as of 03:01, 13 June 2011
Baton Rouge [[27]] is the capital of Louisiana, USA.
The city name was given over 300 years ago when on 17 March 1699, Pierre Le Moyne, Sieur d'Iberville, led an expedition along the Mississippi River.
The city's earliest written records are found in the diaries of these explorers which tell the tale of a pole stained with blood of fish and animals that served as the dividing line between the Bayougoula and Houmas Indians. It is from this "red stick" that Iberville christened the city "le Baton Rouge."
The city's earliest written records are found in the diaries of these explorers which tell the tale of a pole stained with blood of fish and animals that served as the dividing line between the Bayougoula and Houmas Indians. It is from this "red stick" that Iberville christened our city "le Baton Rouge."
Baton Rouge has a semi-tropical climate, perfect for outdoor activities.
The weather is consistently warm from May-Sep. Winter is usually mild and short-lived. Spring is glorious with cool nights and warm, sunny days. A light jacket is all that is needed.
Fall is mild and only a light sweater is needed in the evenings Precipitation is reasonably well-distributed and ample throughout the year with an average annual precipitation of 55 in (140 cm) Average summer temperature: 81.3°F (27°C) Average winter temperature: 52.5°F (11°C) Average annual temperature: 67.5°F (20°C)
Baton Rouge, like many Gulf States, has what is known as 5 seasons. The 5th season, being hurricane season. The time of year between June 1 and November 30 when hurricane are most likely to form.
Get in
By plane
Baton Rouge Metropolitan Airport (IATA: BTR) [28], located in north Baton Rouge, near Southern University. It is served by Delta, Continental, U. S. Airways, Northwest and American Airlines.
By train
While there is no train station in Baton Rouge, connecting bus service can be booked with a train connecting in New Orleans [29].
By car
From New Orleans, Baton Rouge is an 80-mi (129 km) northwest drive on I-10, which drives into the heart of downtown. The distance between the two Louisiana cities is an easy 90-min drive if you avoid weekday rush hours; if you catch the traffic of commuter rush hours at either end it can take a lot longer.
If you're driving in from anywhere east of Louisiana, come into Baton Rouge via I-12, which will take you north of Lake Ponchartrain and bypasses New Orleans. From the west, I-10 connects Lafayette, Houston, and Los Angeles with Baton Rouge. From the east, I-10 connects Baton Rouge with Mobile, Pensacola, and Jacksonville. If you're coming from Chicago, St. Louis, or Memphis follow I-55 South and merge onto I-12 West and continue driving for roughly 45 mi (72 km).
The Baton Rouge Metro Council recently outlawed many drink specials in establishments classified as bars, so if you're looking to save a buck, you should stick with drinking in restaurants. However, if you're looking for that bar atmosphere, there are several places to choose from. Baton Rouge's blue laws were repealed in October 2007, but restrictions on drink specials are still in effect.

USFWS National Digital Library
MS. NORTON: What was your most dangerous situation while you were working?
MR. ST.ORES: When I was in Lansing, Iowa I did a lot of Law Enforcement work,
especially with trappers. I found out after I was there that there was a young man who
had been there ahead of me, sometime before. As I recall he was either drowned by Indian
trappers, or well, he died out there. He must have been killed out there on one of the
sloughs. They caught him in the wintertime and shoved him under the ice. Those same
Indians were trapping there when I was there. I was always very careful. I carried a
[side] arm, which was supplied by the government in the event that I would need it. But
I was always uneasy out there when I was in that Indian area because of what had
happened before I got there. That was the scariest part. I was warned a couple of times,
to "leave my traps alone!" Some were illegally set and I had to do something about it.
The owners would come along and say, "Leave my g— d----- traps alone!" There was
one in particular I remember where the guy had a mink in his. He [the mink] had gotten
out of the water and was running away with the trap with the drag behind it. I killed it
for him and put it back in the hole where it had come from. He didn't like that at all.
Sometimes you don't get any thanks for when you think you're doing a good job for
somebody. That's the only time I was really frightened, was down on the Lansing
District when I was working with the Indians. They used to come down there every
wintertime from up north, and trap. I had the same thing out at Waubay, but I didn't
have any big concerns. Part of the Waubay Refuge was Indian Reservation; they were
over there quiet often, so I had to be very careful. Other than that, at my age, there
wasn't much that scared me…having been in the Army and all that.
MS. NORTON: What do you think was the most humorous experience you ever had?
MR. ST.ORES: You know, I was just thinking about that the other day. Now I can't
remember what that funny thing was. At seventy-eight you can't remember everything!
MS. NORTON: What would you like to tell others about your career, and about the
MR. ST. ORES: I think that it's a very worthwhile thing. You have to be sincerely
interested in the resource and not in what it's going to do for you. It has to be a passion
with you, to do something with the resource. The USFWS is a good place to do it. It
may not be quite the organization that it was. It's getting a little bit more political. But it
still is a good place to do something significant for the resource. Again, I say you really
have to have the heart for it, and not expect anything. You have to be happy with what
you've done rather than looking for the rewards from others.
MS. NORTON: What were some of the changes that you observed in the USFWS, like
in personnel and the environment?
MR. ST. ORES: Well, one of the things I objected to most was that they would take
Directors for USFWS from outside. That's the thing that I just thought was terrible. Of
course I didn't like all the reorganizations, one after the other. Whenever there was a
change in administration, you'd get reorganization. It was so disheartening. As a result of
that there were people who should have been fired who got promoted. That's my
opinion only! A lot of the people, who should have been promoted, didn't. They just
kept working, and working hard at a job they wanted to do. Like I said, you have to want
to do something for the thanks you get from doing it; not for the thanks or rewards that
come from someone else. That's about all I can add on that.
MS. NORTON: What are your thoughts on the future? Where do you see the USFWS
heading in the next decades?
MR. ST. ORES: Boy, that's a tough one. I really think that waterfowl was the thing that
brought them about to start with. And I think that their future lies with waterfowl. They
have got to keep pushing on all of the time. It's got to be waterfowl. It can't be anything
else. There's been about of things like working on the Environmental Policy Act; well,
that's fine because if some project was going to affect waterfowl then you could say that.
If it wasn't too political they'd do something about it. But if it was, why, I remember
one situation where orders came down from the President to the Secretary of the Interior
that "This project is going to go through! There's a Congressman up in Michigan who's
got to get reelected. And he can't get reelected unless this project goes through.
Whatever you want to help allay the damage it's going to cause, you'll probably get, but
this project is going to go through"!
MS. NORTON: Do you have any documents or photographs that you'd like to donate
or share?
MR. ST. ORES: I have given most of them away to some of the people that I worked
with. I remember when I went to Jim See's thing [funeral?] out at Waubay I took a
picture along of the group that he belonged to. I asked if she had it. It was a nice picture.
I had it all framed. She told me "No". And she was so happy to get it. And there was
Jim, right in the middle of the things. All the habitat preservation crew who were working
at the time were right there on the picture. I have a few other things downstairs. They
don't mean a lot to me but….
MS. NORTON: If you should decide that there is something that you think might be
meaningful to the Archives, just let me know.
MR. ST. ORES: Sure, I can do that.
MS. NORTON: Well, we're just about at the end now. Who else do you think we
should interview?
MR. ST. ORES: Larry DeBates. He's out in Oregon.
MS. NORTON: Yes, you know his wife has cancer now.
MS. ST. ORES: Oh, does she?! Awww…that's a shame!
MS. NORTON: Was there anybody else that you can think of?
MR. ST.ORES: Not right off the top of me head. But, Larry was a good man. He
always had the resource at heart. All of the people in that wetlands program were great
people. They were totally committed to the waterfowl resources, and "To hell with the
rewards" was their motto. There was a lot of them who became Regional Directors; Ken
Black, another one out in Portland, Oregon.
MS. NORTON: There was Lynn Greenwalt.
MR. ST. ORES: He even ended up being the Director of USFWS as you remember.
MS. NORTON: Well, we'll try and get as many as we can get. And we're also trying to
go by the older they are. We're trying to get them before something happens and we no
longer have them. I want to thank you for your time Ray, and…
MR. ST. ORES: The pleasure is mine.
MS. NORTON: It is so nice to have Joan here with you too. We'll be sure that you get
a copy of this when it's finished.

OK, there's got to be a way to prevent (or at least slow down) formation of rust on the chrome rings that I attach to my wagon wheels. As much as I've tried to clean them off after the road grime collects, and after waxing every set I've had to buy on an annual basis, I still get rust. Is there anything I can maybe apply to the rings to help keep the salty road grime from eating them? I was thinking the frying pan spray like used in restaurants, am I way off here?
I'm wide open for suggestions (although new rings every year look goood:D ).

Maybe a few coats of clearcoat??

Try powder coating. I've heard there is a silver powder coat that is like a dull chrome. If done properly it's very durable...from what I've read.

The lights are on
Enix is extra secretive with its coveted Kingdom Hearts franchise, but we were
able to interview co-director Tai Yasue, who's currently working on Kingdom
Hearts HD 2.5 Remix. The collection includes the Final Mix for Kingdom Hearts
II and Birth By Sleep, on top of updated cutscenes from Re:coded. Yasue not
only offered insight into Kingdom Hearts 2.5, but he also shared how
development on Kingdom Hearts III is coming along.
Did you take any fan feedback from
Kingdom Hearts 1.5 into account that influenced Kingdom Hearts 2.5?
with 1.5, there weren't a lot of complaints. There usually is, right? But one
thing there was from more of our Japanese players was for the [theater mode];
they wanted more battle scenes. They wanted to see the battle scenes. So, we
put a lot of battle scenes in Re:coded
and we made them have cutscenes. They're not real-time battles, but
they're actually made like an action movie, sort of. You get a whole new
understanding of the story that way.
I read that with Re:coded, you added
more scenes and there was one that was going to transition more into Dream Drop
Distance? Is that true?
not the secret...Well, there's actually a secret event at the end, right? But
that doesn't transition - well, actually - how do you know that? It sort of
does connect to other Kingdom Hearts titles, so you get to know about the
backstory, how they started maybe, and what happened at the other end where
there wasn't really much of an explanation. You get a fuller understanding if
you watch it all; it gets added at the very end so you can see that.
Westerners are going to finally get to
play the Final Mix versions of Kingdom Hearts II and Birth By Sleep, but
outside of that, what other additions are there?
I think the big thing is Re:coded and the Final Mix, because it was really well
received in Japan. We really wanted our American and European fanbase to play
that. There are a lot of boss scenes added, there are [Mushroom Heartless XIII]
missions in Kingdom Hearts II, and a lot of forms added in Kingdom Hearts II
that should be really enjoyable. Also, for Birth By Sleep, there's a secret
episode at the very end where Aqua has an adventure in the realm of Dark and
[it has] a boss and a lot of stages, so that should be enjoyable.
A lot of the things I love about Kingdom Hearts were in the Final Mix version.
Right now I'm attempting to fight Roxas... He's very strong and I'm fighting him
in the critical mode, which is very difficult, [but] I get a lot of
satisfaction. For the hardcore gamers, I think that would be very enjoyable;
you need a lot of strategy. Also, Lingering Will. Lingering Will is an armored
guy who is a manifestation of Terra in Birth By Sleep. His weapons actually

Unspoken by Sarah Rees Brennan
Seventeen-year-old Kami Glass has spent her entire life in a small English town called Sorry-in-the-Vale. She has always had a hard time fitting in; she is Japanese and looks like no one else in her town, and she hears a voice in her head that she has been talking to from the time she was born. But, despite being an outsider, Kami is very bold, constantly pursuing answers to the mysteries that surround her.
She and her best friend and tough sidekick, Angela, run the school newspaper. Life in Sorry-in-the-Vale is fairly dull with few interesting stories to publish outside of childrens cricket camp drama. But everything changes once the Lynburn family returns to town. For starters, the voice in her head, Jared, turns out to be a real person (and not just any person): a Lynburn who seems as gorgeous as he is dangerous. As if that isnt confusing enough, she also meets his equally attractive cousin, Asher. While Kami is trying to wrap her head around that drama, she is pushed into a well and nearly drowns. Someone is out to kill her, but who, and why? Does the boy in her head hold the answers? Click here for a link to the Library catalog.
The Book of Blood: From Legends and Leeches to Vampires and Veins by HP Newquist
When you think of blood what comes to mind? Gore ? Death? Blood is an essential part of life that has affected human society, both culturally and scientifically. This book explores medical research over several centuries, as well as the folklore, fear, and religious and political barriers that have hindered our understanding of blood and the basic functions of the human body.
Surprisingly, our current knowledge of blood and the circulatory system was not discovered until the beginning of the 19th century. Even after the invention of the microscope, bloodletting continued as standard practice until some doctors began to question it after George Washingtons death.
Beginning with ancient civilizations and mythology, the book follows humanitys social and scientific relationship with blood through to modern times. The second half of the book details the scientific functions of blood. The last section of the book explores the myths and legends related to blood, such as vampires, that have continued in popular culture. If you want a great read full of information without the dryness of a traditional textbook- I highly recommend the Book of Blood. Click here for a link to the Library catalog.

The state of Ohio opened its case against a teenage boy charged in a deadly scheme to lure victims with phony Craigslist job offers, painting him as a willing student of violent crime.
A 17-year-old charged in a deadly scheme to lure victims with phony Craigslist jobs was a willing student of violent crime who played a key role in the killings of men who were desperate to find work, a prosecutor said to open the boy's trial today.
Brogan Rafferty chose to participate in the deaths of three men and wounding of a third, even if he wasn't the triggerman, prosecutor Emily Pelphrey told jurors as she outlined the case against him. Rafferty kept his head down and took notes as the alleged plot was detailed for the jury.
Pelphrey showed the jury timelines for each victim and said they had been desperate to improve their lives or find "the light at the end of the tunnel." With each victim, a photo of their graves was shown on a big TV screen.
Rafferty was a willing partner, according to Pelphrey. The defendant was a quick student of the alleged plot and "a student of violent crime," she told jurors.
"He made the choices he wanted to make," she said.
Defense attorney John Alexander told jurors Rafferty was afraid that the plot's alleged mastermind, Richard Beasley, would kill him and his relatives if he didn't cooperate and keep silent. He says Rafferty never participated voluntarily.
As for the alleged plot to lure job seekers, Alexander said, Rafferty "had no idea any of this was going on."
The first killing came without warning for Rafferty at a southeast Ohio farm where a man had been offered a job, according to Alexander. He said Beasley warned Rafferty to keep quiet by reminding him that he knew where Rafferty's mother and sister lived.
That was an implied threat to cooperate and keep quiet, Alexander said. "He would kill them if Brogan says anything," Alexander told jurors.
Beasley has pleaded not guilty and will be tried separately.
The body of David Pauley, 51, of Norfolk, Va., was found on Noble County property owned by a coal company and often leased to hunters.
Timothy Kern, 47, of Massillon, was found in a shallow grave near an Akron-area shopping mall. He had been shot in the head.
The body of Ralph Geiger, 55, of Akron, was found in Noble County, dead of a gunshot wound to the head.
A South Carolina man, Scott Davis, escaped after being shot in the arm by hiding in woods until it got dark. He was expected to testify at Rafferty's trial.
Beasley was a Texas parolee who returned to Ohio in 2004 after serving time on a burglary conviction. He was awaiting trial on prostitution and drug charges when authorities took him into custody.
Police have said a halfway house he ran in Akron was a front for prostitution. Authorities said he was a mentor for Rafferty and had befriended him.

For the cool kids
I think what I find most disturbing of the quotes you mention is that a&f say that their clothing is for the "cool kids". The kids who are not considered cool are often just different from the school or local norm and the reason could be anything from body type to interests to refusing to engage in the risky or cruel behaviors of their peers. We say that we value uniqueness in our society but we don't always live up to that. It's bad enough when children make fun of others for being different but for adults to publically support that attitude is terribly wrong and shortsighted.

Wow, what an unbelievable statement against poor people...
(25) SusanE, May 30, 2013 5:20 AM
Obesity or Poverty?
A&F is a bit pricey. Poor people can't afford that level of pricing for their clothing. Poor people also can't afford fine dining in expensive restaurants. I don't agree that those restaurants should have low priced menus for the poor folk. They cater to well-dressed well-heeled diners because that is who they want as customers. I am not offended when a place says no shirt no shoes, no service. - - - - - - - I don't know what A & F sells exactly because we don' t have a store in my area. (we're given Peebles and Wal-Mart) If Abercrombie and Fitch offer fashions that only look good in proportion up to a size 10 then that is what they sell. If you can't afford their line of clothing you can't shop there. If you can't wear anything below a size 10 then you can't shop there. A size 10 is not small, it's a reasonable size. Their prices and goods are geared to the affluent. Get over it. Shop elsewhere.
Andy, May 30, 2013 11:23 AM
fair comment but
Susan,well said. It reminds of those who have a problem with yeshivas were seemingly the sole emphasis is on excellence in learning Talmud.In both cases there likely are other options but it may require leaving the culture where one is raised, and that's painful and difficult, particularly for teens. One can't outlaw outsize obsession with physical beauty as defined by whatever culture one resides. It seems to me our job as a society is to offer alternative paths where one can build self esteem.If not it seems to me the kids suffer and we all pay the price.

A special Test Waters designation intended to improve fishing for large, wild brook trout at Jobs Pond in Westmore and Martins Pond in Peacham is being considered by the Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department. A public meeting on the potential change is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday, March 12 at the Caledonia Forest and Stream Club in St. Johnsbury.
Jobs and Martins Ponds are two of just a handful of ponds in Vermont that have significant numbers of wild brook trout, and they are the only two ponds in the state that consistently produce wild brook trout longer than 15 inches. "The proposed Test Waters designation should contribute to even better fishing at these two special ponds," said Jud Kratzer, state fisheries biologist.
The proposed Test Waters designation includes a two trout per day creel limit and a 12 to 15-inch protected slot limit. Anglers would have to release all trout between 12 and 15 inches, and they would be permitted to keep only one trout over 15 inches per day. The designation would go into effect the first day of trout season, April 13, 2013. Fish & Wildlife will evaluate the effectiveness and popularity of the Test Waters designation over the next few years before making recommendations to the Fish and Wildlife Board about a permanent regulation for these two ponds.
To get to the Caledonia Forest and Stream Club from St. Johnsbury Village, travel north on US-5 roughly four miles, and turn right onto Pierce Road. After about 0.7 miles on Pierce Road, turn left onto the Club's access road. For a map, visit the Club's website at http://www.vermontana.com/cfsc.html. If you have questions about the proposed Test Waters designation, call Jud Kratzer at 802-751-0486.

This is a group dedicated to the hardest games this generation, the Souls series.
-Think of this as a my best moments in Dark Souls thread-
My first death in Dark Souls, was from a Black Knight!
~who can top that sh*, who can top that sh*~
Suda51 Group
I made it all the way to the Capra Demon without dying my first time through.
Also, in Demon's Souls, I beat 1-1, 1-2, 2-1 and 2-2 without dying... and then I got raped by Flamelurker.
If you bred HK-47, Shale, Chai Ka and Wrex, the gaming world would explode from sheer badassery.
Whoa, I actually didn't think anyone would top that... you actually got past the red dragon without dieing? That takes more than skill!
But I got another for you, I beat the Capra Demon my first try! Still have no clue why people call him the hardest boss!
My first dodge roll in the fight didn't go well, and I ended up in a corner surrounded by him and both dogs. It was over before it started.
I just immediately ran up the stairs, then onto that little ledge, killed the dogs from there.
Then I dropped, somehow got it to where I was on the stairs, and he was on the side of the stairs, then just exchanged hits with him until he went down.
I made it to the Asylum Demon, but died.
I guess mine would be when I killed the Four Kings in New Game+ on my first try. One of the greatest moments of my life. ^_^
Yeah, the Capra Demon is pretty simply IMHO.

Andrews gets an "A+"
Top HeadlinesDate: November 27, 2006
Contact: firstname.lastname@example.com
Phone: 269-471-3322
Many of today's high school students feel pressure to gain admission to big name universities in order to be successful. This can stress out the hard-working "B" student with a less-than-perfect academic record who may feel that open-ended state universities and community colleges are their only options. But as detailed in the article "A+ Options for "B" Students," U.S. News and World Report's (USN&WR) Anne McGrath claims this needn't be the case. Instead of seeking a "name brand" university, students can find lesser known schools with great programs that better fit their individual needs.
Included in its America's Best Colleges 2007 edition, USN&WR lists 300 colleges and universities that meet the qualifications - caring professors, smaller classes, solid retention rates, etc... - for what they consider to be "A+ options" for the non-valedictorian. Included on the list was Andrews University. With smaller classes and a favorable student-teacher ratio, students at Andrews have professors that will remember their names, care about their success and notice when they're not showing up for class. With the help of the Student Success Center and IVue's flagging system, students are less likely to just slip through the cracks. But more than just teachers who remember names, Andrews' small size allows students big opportunities for real world experience and solid academics, whether it's doing research with a professor, presenting a paper at a national conference, or learning hands-on while exploring the world on a study tour.
Aaron Moushon, senior political science major, is an example of a student who has experienced the Andrews difference through study tours. "Study tours are culturally enhancing life experiences that are an invaluable addition to the academic experience students receive at Andrews," Aaron notes. Aaron had never been out of the country prior to his participation in the History and Political Science Department's study-tour to Cuba in 2003. Since then, he has traveled abroad and spent two years living in England.
"True universities are characterized by active research," notes Shandelle Henson, professor of mathematics. "When undergraduates participate with faculty in primary research, coauthor peer-reviewed papers, and present at meetings, they receive an experience that cannot be duplicated in either small, non-research colleges or in large universities that are driven by PhD programs. Andrews can deliver this kind of experience. We have the potential to send our graduates to the cutting-edge in their chosen fields."

This article has been written yesterday. Today have been evolutions refering Rossi's contract.
This article will highlight some facts that occurred between 2011 and 2012, relating to the negotiation of the purchase of Ducati by Audi.
A lot has already written about this, but some elements appear to be inconsistent, so I thought it was worth exploring it in more detail. So what are we investigating? Mainly we are trying to understand why Ducati seems not to have been able to follow the development program and steps envisioned for 2012 with the new GP12.
Obviously the argument rests on assumptions, but based on facts that give sense to this article, also considering the financial reasons we will touch (the property switch of Ducati), I turned to a more experienced friend in this area: an economics teacher who teaches in a school in Switzerland.
Has the transfer of ownership of Ducati caused lags in the GP program? This is what I will try to demonstrate, quoting as usual the links that support my statements, in order to bring coherence to my hypothesis.

I came to know of your fine establishment through YouTube. I read the book, perused the blog, visited the forum. It's quite the little empire. One suggestion: you should better integrate the blog and the forum. There are many good posts in the forum that could be condensed and adapted to the blog. There are many comments in the blog that would benefit from forum members who would respond to them (politely of course). You might also consider advertising more. I am surprised I have never heard of your efforts, given their extent. That is all.

Chad Marshall was a teenager when he joined the Crew. He grew up Crew, played 10 years here. He was Massive Crew. Now he is gone. They are all gone.
Chad Marshall was a teenager when he joined the Crew. He grew up Crew, played 10 years here. He was Massive Crew.
Now he is gone. They are all gone.
The last vestige of the 2008 MLS Cup championship team was shipped out yesterday. Under new management, the Crew traded Marshall to the Seattle Sounders for allocation (cash) and a third-round pick in the 2015 SuperDraft.
Yesterday�s news did not resemble the great purge of 2010, when the Crew parted company with Guillermo Barros Schelotto, Frankie Hejduk, Brian Carroll, Gino Padula, Adam Moffat and Duncan Oughton, among others. Yet, Marshall�s departure is some of the same stuff.
Marshall was a two-time MLS Defender of the Year. He played more games (253) for the Black & Gold than anybody. Shoot, he played twice as many games in a Crew uniform as the Polish Rifle, and he scored nearly as many goals. He was a captain.
In the mind�s eye of Crew fans, Marshall will remain the young and dominating defender he was during the championship year, when the incomparable Schelotto was bending corner kicks into his forehead. Those were heady times, heady times.
Now he is gone. They are all gone.
Anthony Precourt bought the franchise in August. He got rid of coach Robert Warzycha in September. He hired Gregg Berhalter as sporting director and coach in November.
Yesterday�s trade put one era behind, for good, and ushered in a new one, for good or ill.
Berhalter has already cleaned out many of his highest-priced players, including Matias Sanchez, Jairo Arrieta, Danny O�Rourke, Glauber and Marshall. The great Eddie Gaven suddenly retired.
The Gaven retirement truly hurt. The Marshall trade? I�m not too bent about it. He was a terrific player throughout the previous decade. He swooned in 2012, and bounced back last season. His concussion problems are long standing, and he might be one skull-on-skull hit away from retirement. What is more, I think his career needed a wake-up call at this point. He looked too comfortable here lately. He was not the best captain.
One can only wish Marshall all the best as he is reunited with Sigi Schmid. From this end of things, take the Branch Rickey view: better to trade a big player a year too soon than a year too late.
We can debate whether Berhalter extracted enough value, but the trade fits into a bigger picture. Berhalter, as a player, was a hard-edged sort who granted no quarter. Marshall is not like that. Berhalter, as a coach, wants to possess the ball and attack aggressively, back to front. Marshall might not have been the best fit. Berhalter, as a sporting director, wants cap space to rebuild. Marshall might represent a $500,000 hit if he kicks in all his bonuses next year.
Berhalter has, with this Marshall dump, cleared $1.5 million in cap space.
How will he use it? Ah, that is the question.
Berhalter started his rebuild with one move yesterday. The Crew sent a fourth-round pick in the SuperDraft to Chicago for midfielder Daniel Paladini, who once teamed with Dominic Oduro in the Fire midfield. Oduro, the Crew�s leading scorer last season, re-upped with the team earlier this week, so this is something of a reunion.
Paladini, 29, is relatively cheap and does not have a lot of mileage on him. He can provide midfield help, which is one of the Crew�s needs. There are others to fill.
Who will take Marshall�s place at center back, a key position? Who will replace Gaven on the wing? Is there another scorer, besides Oduro, for Federico Higuain to play like a beautiful instrument?
What is Berhalter�s vision? Does he have an eye for talent? Is Precourt�s purse open? How wide?
The Marshall jettisoning is only the latest indication that the Crew is under new management. Now, its fans will find out how smart the new boss is.

Yesterday I noted that after hitting a 52-week low, J.C. Penney's (JCP) stock jumped, eventually closing the day up 4.5%.
That run is continuing today, with Penney up as much as 6.8% this morning and leading the Standard & Poor's 500 index. The stock is now above $16 for the first time since March 21.
Today's recovery is certainly helping a stock that was one of the S&P's worst performers in the first quarter; after losing 23% in the first three months of the year, Penney is now up 6.5% in April.
As previously noted, Penney is one of the most-shorted stocks on the market, a fact that should temper thoughts of a rebound for the retailer.
Update: Penney's stock pulled back during the day, and at the latest is up 2.9% to about $15.50, a 2.7% gain on the month.

Math in the Real World
Date: 2/19/96 at 9:2:54 From: Helder Caixinha Subject: Mathematics and our lives I would like to know some examples of mathematical applications in the real world. That is, mathematical concepts that we contact every day for example in a newspaper,in TV.... With my best regards, Paula Pires, high school teacher
Date: 6/21/96 at 9:42:28 From: Doctor Patrick Subject: Re: Mathematics and our lives Hi! Here are some ways I can think of that math is used in real life: Area is used to figure out how much of something will be needed to cover something else - how much wallpaper you need for your room, how big a carpet will fit into the room,... Volume is used in the same way, except for 3D objects - how much water will fill a pool for example. Trig functions are used all the time for navigation - including in the space program. They can also be used to figure out the height of buildings (or trees, or mountains) by knowing how far you are from the object and what the angle is from where you are on the ground to the top of the object you want to measure. *c |\ If you know the distance (x) and the angle (y) you can | \ find the height (h). Since h/x=tan(y) you can plug in h| \ the numbers you know and solve for h. This is very | \ useful for figuring out the height of object that might | y\ otherwise be too big, or awkward to measure otherwise. ------* You can also use this to figure out how far you are x from someplace if you know how high it is. I know people who have used this when they go camping and hiking. They find out what the height of a large mountain near where they are going to be is, and then using some math they can always figure out how far from it they are to give them a sense of direction. Math is used all the time in accounting and banking and anything else dealing with money. Natural logs, for instance, are used in calculating compound interest (although I can't really remember how that works at the moment). Math is used by train, boat, and plane companies to figure out how long it will take to get somewhere at a given speed, and how much time will be saved or lost because of the wind or water speed. I hope this will be of help. If you have any more questions please write back to us. -Doctor Patrick, The Math Forum

2002 Football
All-Heartland Conference
Nine Bluffton College football players receive All-HCAC honors
By Riordan McClain, SID assistant
November 22, 2002
Nine Bluffton College student-athletes have received All-Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference honors following voting held by the HCAC head football coaches late last week. BC finished at 3-7 this season with a 1-5 HCAC record.
Earning first team honors were senior quarterback Brad Moore (Norwalk/Norwalk H.S.) and junior linebacker Chris Sommers (Delphos/Jefferson H.S.)
Moore is Bluffton's first-ever three-time all-conference quarterback as he finished the season with 1,675 passing yards and nine touchdown passes. He completed 56.8% of his passes (134-for-236) and ran for 259 yards and five touchdowns. In his career at Bluffton College Moore has 5,997 yards in total offense (5,085 yards passing, 912 yards rushing) and 37 touchdown passes, which both rank third all-time at Bluffton. He set a new BC record for lowest interception percentage at 2.6% over his career.
Sommers led the HCAC in tackles with 116, which includes five tackles behind the line of scrimmage, two QB sacks, a pass breakup, and an interception. He was also selected to the HCAC first-team last season.
Four players earned second-team All-HCAC honors, including junior defensive end Luke Wilson (Elmore/Woodmore H.S.), junior running back Jovan Johnson (Columbus/West H.S.), junior wide receiver Jimmy Dwenger (Minster/Minster H.S.) and sophomore linebacker Scott Steiner (Berne, Ind./South Adams H.S.).
Wilson ended the season with 49 tackles, five tackles for loss, three sacks, one forced fumble and two fumble recoveries. Johnson totaled 1579 all-purpose yards, which led the HCAC. He finished with 637 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns and 55 receptions for 588 yards and two touchdowns. Dwenger caught 28 passes for 423 yards and three touchdowns on the season. Steiner ended the season with 65 tackles, 4.5 tackles for loss, one interception, five pass break-ups and two forced fumbles.
Three players also earned honorable mention All-HCAC honors, including senior center Travis Lepley (Lima/Senior H.S.), senior offensive tackle Luke Sorrell (Cincinnati/Mason H.S.), and senior defensive end Brian Steiner (Rawson/Cory-Rawson H.S.)
Lepley and Sorrell led the way on the offensive line for Bluffton on their way to leading the HCAC in rushing for the third time in the last four years. That line gave up a mere nine sacks totaling 48 yards on the season compared to the 22 sacks for 186 yards by Bluffton's defense. Steiner had 50 tackles, 3.5 for loss, one pass break-up, one fumble recovery and forced two fumbles.

The girls are at the table, one working on physics, the other on history. They are mumbling about teachers and assignments and the fact that each, in her own way, is a little bit lost in the assignment spread out before her.
At the moment, my girls, who both get good grades in hard high school classes, are not in love with their public education. They'd rather be doing something else with this beautiful Sunday evening as the sun flash-dances its way across the horizon.
Across the globe, there's another girl their age who feels just the opposite. That woman-child, Malala Yousafzai, has put her life on the line to tell girls that what they learn matters and that they have a right to be educated. They need it.
A year ago, the Pakistani girl, 15 at the time, was sitting on a bus, her face uncovered despite local custom, when two young members of the Taliban flagged the bus over.
One carried a gun and his intent was murder. She was his target. It was not her unveiled face that caught his eye; he asked for her by name as he waved his gun. Then he shot her, at point-blank range, in the face. Three times.
She is both an unlikely hero and proof that anyone can rise up and shake the world. Her story is still sending shockwaves and she has been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize. She'll find out sometime this week.
Malala believed passionately that girls should be able to go to school, that they had the right to their dreams and a future. She was not ignorant of the risk. Numerous news reports have pointed out that in her village, women and girls who didn't comport themselves in a way considered seemly by the Taliban sometimes had acid thrown in their faces, or they were abused or even killed.
It's absolutely clear that death was to be her punishment for her brazen appearances on Pakistani TV and for writing her thoughts for the world on a BBC online forum.
She was on the bus, coming home from school, she told reporters, because her mom thought it would be safer.
She knew the Taliban was brutal; she told Diane Sawyer that the town square had earned the nickname "Slaughter Square" for the number of beheadings carried out there. But she was more worried about her father, who had spoken out for the rights of girls to have an education. She thought her young age would provide some protection.
That age is what makes her story particularly remarkable and outrageous and heartbreaking and heartwarming. My children have stood up to bullies, but they have not lived in a world where you submit or die for believing something is right or wrong.
That age is what has rallied the world around her and given her cause the backing of even those who might not have cared on another day about something happening so far away in a region so remote from their realities that it would not seem to touch them.
That age is what makes me embarrassed about times when I've taken the path of least resistance rather than pick a cause and blaze forth in pursuit of change.
My girls and I were talking about Malala when the year-anniversary story came on the radio. I remarked that nasty comments on stories written by mean people who could duck accountability by posting anonymously is sometimes all it takes to make me tow the line.
The real question is what it would take to get me — to get all of us — to risk everything because something is so important and so right we cannot be silenced.

Nov. 19, 2013
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Andre Hollins helped Minnesota overcome a sluggish performance, scoring 19 points for the Gophers in an 82-72 victory over Coastal Carolina Tuesday.
Hollins, the Big Ten's leading scorer entering the night, shot 6 for 14 from the floor and chipped in five rebounds and four assists for Minnesota (4-0). The junior is averaging 21.8 points per game. He scored eight straight for the Gophers and followed that stretch with a fast-break assist on their final basket of the first half, for a 39-33 lead.
Freshman Elijah Wilson led Coastal Carolina (1-3) with 25 points on 10-for-14 shooting, including 5 for 7 from 3-point range. Colton Ray-St Cyr contributed 15 points and six assists, but he also had five of 20 turnovers for the Chanticleers.
DeAndre Mathieu scored 17 points with six assists, Austin Hollins added 15 points and Oto Osenieks had a career-high 13 points for the Gophers, who were outrebounded and outshot for most of the game but drew enough fouls down the stretch to pull away with free throws.
Andre Hollins and teammate Joey King banged heads trying to corral a loose ball, and King left the court in a daze with what the team called a bruised jaw.
After holding their first three opponents to 22.4 shooting from 3-point range, the Gophers let the Chanticleers go 9 for 20 from behind the arc.
Elliott Eliason, who entered the night second in the Big Ten in rebounding, grabbed 11 boards but often struggled against El Hadji Ndieguene, the only Coastal Carolina senior, a native of Senegal who is one of five international-born players on the roster. Eliason had eight points, three fouls and two turnovers but also had two blocks and two steals. Ndieguene finished with 10 points and seven rebounds.
The Gophers have significantly picked up the pace under new coach Richard Pitino, with a full-court press, fast breaks at every opportunity and no hesitation to shoot 3-pointers. They swished enough of them to maintain a lead for most of the night, but this was an example of the danger to them of simply settling for shots behind the arc and not attacking the basket.
Even though the departure of Trevor Mbakwe and Rodney Williams has thinned the Gophers in the post, they won't get far in the Big Ten without more movement and variation when they're in the half court. They had 17 attempts from 3-point range and only three from the foul line in the first 20 minutes.
Malik Smith hit a couple of 3-pointers in a 75-second span near the midway mark of the first half, and the Gophers immediately forced a five-second violation with their press after the second one stretched the lead to 21-14.
Austin Hollins soared into the lane to grab a missed 3-pointer by Andre Hollins and dunk it with one hand in the same motion, lifting Minnesota to a 25-19 edge. But the highlights were few and far between over the first three-quarters of the game for the Gophers, who won their first three contests by an average 20-point margin.
Their defense was the biggest issue, failing to stop the slippery Chanticleers guards when they drove to and through the lane. Wilson was a handful. The 6-foot-4 native of Wilmington, N.C., is playing and scoring more than everyone else on the team, and there's a reason for that. With 42 points as a senior for Laney High School, he tied the program's single-game record set in 1980 by the great Michael Jordan.
Coastal Carolina has never beaten a Big Ten team in seven tries, but the Chanticleers had two wins each over power-conference foes Louisiana State and Clemson in the past three years. They lost here to the Gophers in 2005.
Despite a recent pair of 28-win seasons under coach Cliff Ellis, Coastal Carolina hasn't been to the NCAA tournament since 1993. Ellis has taken plenty of teams there, though, at previous spots at South Alabama, Clemson and Auburn. With half of the roster new to the program this year, the Chanticleers took defending Southeastern Conference champion Mississippi to the wire last week in losing at home 72-70. They lost to another NCAA tournament team, at Akron to open the season.
Ellis entered the fall with the 10th-most victories in the country among active coaches.

text: I just purchased today a miller AEAD 200le welder. Serial # HE802574. The engine runs fine and the 120v plugs work but it won't hold an arc while welding. I don't know much about the internal workings of the machine so I tried to pull up the manual on here but it brings up a machine with a dial control for amperage and this is one of the old machines where you still have to switch around the cables. Anyone have any ideas what it might be or where to get the proper manual for my machine? Thanks

Arsenal's Aaron Ramsey admits he and his team-mates have no idea how the situation will pan out with wantaway striker Robin van Persie.
The Holland international this week issued a carefully-worded statement on his official website revealing he would not be penning an extension to his current deal with the Gunners, which expires next summer. It is yet to be seen whether Arsenal decide to cash in on Van Persie, although manager Arsene Wenger recently declared the club must retain their talisman "at all costs".
