Description of problem: There is no feedback during the two-minute wait for
"Determining host name and domain" on install via http+ipv4+dhcp when booted
from diskboot.img. The user may well give up too soon.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
d75d44862eb9bf5ca0299932f0ad43f3 diskboot.img [md5sum;
core/development/i386/os/images 2007-02-20]
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. boot diskboot.img
2. specify language, keyboard, http, enable ipv4+dhcp, disable ipv6
Actual results: 2-minute wait with no feedback for "Determining host name and
domain" on consumer-grade network with dhcp server only (no dns server, but yes
dns ipv4 address is given).
Expected results: Warn that the timeout is 2 minutes; also give feedback (every
5 seconds or so) to say that there has been no crash.
Additional info: <Alt>F3 shows that there was immediate response to dhcp lease,
subnet-mask, broadcast, and option routers; but no indication of any problem
after that.
I'm pretty sure this is a dupe of bug #230941. DHCPv6 was still being run even
if you disabled it, which made the host discovery appear to take forever because
of the DHCPv6 timeout. This has been fixed in rawhide and now the host
discovery part you mention quickly resolves and no longer appears hung.
Can you try rawhide to see if it's still exhibiting the behaviour you describe?
Fixed in diskboot.img of 2007-03-26 for i386 with sha1sum:
42cb7578571eb2f51815eef7f942bbb1ed7a9777 diskboot.img
The wait was just a couple seconds when enable ipv4+dhcp, disable ipv6.
Thanks. Closing per comment #2.

My Husband wants a Divorce—What Do I Do?
Does Your Husband need a Divorce?
Do you think your husband wants a divorce? It's a terrifying thought that your lifelong dedication may be coming to an end, and you may be desperate for a solution. Even if you already know your husband wants a divorce, take a minute to study this besides because I will share a few matters you may do proper now to assist shop your marriage. "My Husband wants a Divorce—What Do I Do?"
Signs Your Husband might also want a Divorce
No one is going to sleep perfectly glad—and then wakes up the subsequent morning feeling it is time to stop their marriage. Coming to this realization is a protracted system, and thankfully meaning that there's still a risk to prevent it from divorce from going on. The first issue you need to do is to read the symptoms. The trick is reading the signs and symptoms and acting in time.
So what signs and symptoms need to you search for whilst you think that your husband wishes a divorce? Right here are a few things to maintain an eye fixed out for:
- He's remote and easily will become irritable or angry with you.
- He doesn't open up and talk about how or what he is feeling.
- He would not spend as a lot of time with you and likes to be far away from domestic.
- He would not seem inquisitive about spending time with you on my own, or as a family with the kids.
- He isn't always as affectionate anymore (no hugs, kisses, or cuddling).
- He doesn't wear his wedding ceremony ring all of the time.
If you've noticed any of those symptoms, then your husband may also need a divorce. Remember the fact that anyone is exceptional, and these signs don't certainly mean that he is prepared to break it off. But, these are some of the maximum common signs that your marriage may be on the rocks. Here's the component that most people don't realise: Your partner is probably feeling the exact identical manner that you are. "My Husband wants a Divorce—What Do I Do?"
No one enjoys the yelling, arguing, and feelings of disconnection. I assure you, irrespective of how tons you two fight, the way to mean you are to each other, or how tons you need to be away from each other, you possibly nevertheless love every other. The factor is, each of yours in all likelihood performing out of worry. After you examine calm each others' fears, there is a pathway closer to marital stability. To do that, you may each need to compromise. You need to avoid while Your Husband desires a Divorce Every female desire to realize precisely what to do when her husband wants a divorce. Commonly a feel of urgency reasons humans to try and resolve the hassle immediately. Normally, however, these knee-jerk reactions make things worse ultimately.
Here are a pair of things you need to avoid whilst handling this case:
You want to keep away from texting him as lots as possible. It will only cause a catastrophe, especially in case you're involved that he's with every other girl. Usually, your husband will study your message and no longer respond simply because he wishes area. Plus, the tone is easily misconstrued in a text, so store your words for later, whilst you are face-to-face.
Apologizing for the whole thing
When you say you're sorry too much, your husband knows that that is an act of desperation. Plus, apologizing doesn't provide a solution in any respect, that's what you both really want. Don't forget the saying "movements communicate louder than words"? This is a great example of when that concept applies. "My Husband wants a Divorce—What Do I Do?"
Promising matters can be distinct
The majority use this extra than as soon as, and it would not paintings after the primary time (perhaps the second in case you're fortunate). If not anything has modified after you promised this the primary time, why must he agree with you this time around?
Keep away from false guarantees at all fees. Right here's the thrilling component: commonly, what you need to do is counter-intuitive to what you already know to be actual. You realize things might not be one-of-a-kind, but you would like them to be, so you succumb to magical wondering and faux that saying these words will one way or the other make it proper. Why is that? Due to the fact we're blinded by feelings while our marriage is falling apart. When you're managing a delicate state of affairs, you need to maintain peaceful, clear thoughts—and admit to yourself and every other that matters might not exchange without a variety of paintings. "My Husband wants a Divorce—What Do I Do?"
What to Do When Your Husband wishes a Divorce
So, what exactly must you do whilst your husband wishes a divorce? You ought to agree to separate. This counter-intuitive method, first of all, will sound totally insane but study on to study why it is powerful.
Conform to a transient Separation
Right now, you're probably scratching your head, questioning "you have to be kidding, proper?" Nope, now not one bit. This is an effective pass, to begin with as it facilitates show that things are truly going to alternate. While confronted with the fact of what he is inquiring for, your husband may begin to question whether or no longer his preference to dissolve the wedding will virtually bring him any extra happiness, and this is precisely what you need him to start thinking.
The thrilling idea, isn't it? Think of it this manner: Has whatever you've been doing (like calling, texting, or pleading with him to discover an approach to your marital problems) added you any in the direction of peace on your marriage? Most in all likelihood now not. The reason for this is that the greater we tighten our grip, trying to maintain the situation from falling apart, the much more likely it will be to slide through our fingers. "My Husband wants a Divorce—What Do I Do?"
At a certain factor, you have to believe to your marriage and your love for every different, and you want to accept as true with that the whole lot will training session in case you surely need it to. You have to simply let move for a bit. Everything you struggled through collectively, the entirety you have done together, maintain that in thoughts as you maintain preventing on through the challenging instances.
This is just one step within the process, and it's the single best approach whilst your marriage is on the verge of crumble. I study approximately this strategy in an eBook known as The Magic of Making Up through T.W. Jackson. He describes all the errors we make while we strive to save our marriages, why they don't work, and the way pursuing a more counter-intuitive method can lead to saving your marriage and rekindling the flame that after burned so brightly. If you have emotions of melancholy, you cannot prevent thinking about why he simply left, you've lost your appetite, you're indulging in your favourite comfort food too frequently, otherwise you lose awareness at paintings or with buddies because you cannot stop considering him, then it's time to dig deep and start searching at yourself. "My Husband wants a Divorce—What Do I Do?"
You can't mend your marriage whilst you're broken yourself. In other phrases, you cannot begin solving your dating until you have worked on fixing yourself. This indicates creating critical funding of electricity and time in something it takes to get your head on instantly: counselling, remedy, self-assist books, exercise, meditation, or something else helps you understand and exchange vintage styles. Your marriage is very critical—now not only to you however in your husband, as well (even though he doesn't always display it). You can observe the seven steps outlined in Jackson's eBook, which I highly recommend, to win your husband's coronary heart and solidify your marriage over again.

Propane gas is a popular fuel choice for many outdoor grillers. It is also a versitle fuel for many tools and devices such as Mosquito Magnets. Quite often we will have customers come in concerned about the safety of their tanks, transportation, or have other questions about propane fuel. We want to answer these questions and cover some important safety tips when using propane fuel.
Propane (also called LPG—liquefied petroleum gas—or LP gas) is a liquid fuel stored under pressure. Propane is flammable when mixed with air (oxygen) and can be ignited by many sources, including open flames, smoking materials, electrical sparks, and static electricity. Propane is very cold in both liquid and gas state. Infact, severe "freeze burn" or frostbite can result if propane liquid comes in contact with your skin.
Propane smells very similar to rotten eggs or a skunk's spray. Propane manufacturers intentionally add this smell to help alert customers to the pressence of propane. If you smell propane gas, check for leaks from your tank and equipment.
Some people may have difficulty smelling
propane due to age, a medical condition, or from the effects of medication, alcohol, tobacco, or drugs. Consider purchasing a propane gas detector as an additional measure of security.
It is required by law that all small propane cylinders have an Overflow Prevention Device (OPD) installed. Your tank cannot be filled without one. Most OPD equiped cylinders have a triangular valve handle with the letters "OPD" stamped on it.
An OPD is a safety feature that helps prevent small propane cylinders from being overfilled. An overfilled cylinder doesn't have enough space left for liquid expansion when exposed to warmer temperatures. This can cause an increase in cylinder pressure and create potentially hazardous conditions.
The date your cylinder was manufactured is important. Propane tanks must be recertified within 12 years of their manufacturing date and with 5 years of its recertification date. Tanks that are out of date cannot be filled. To check your cylinders manufacturing date, look for date markings stamped into the handle - usually on the upper corners.
NEVER dispose of your propane cylinder by throwing it in the trash. Check with your town to see if they have collection programs or requirements for disposal. At Larsen Ace Hardware, we have tank disposal program available for a small fee. Most gas grill tanks are $5.

About 1,500 businesspeople from 25 countries are expected to attend the 13th Indonesian Palm Oil Conference (IPOC) and 2018 Price Outlook in Nusa Dua, Bali, from Nov. 1 to 3.
"The topics to be discussed at the conference include issues of sustainability and relations between companies and farmers," IPOC 2017 chairwoman Mona Surya said in a statement issued on Monday.
Most of the attending businesspeople represented firms producing various products related to crude palm oil (CPO), Mona added.
The conference, set to be opened by Coordinating Economic Minister Darmin Nasution, will also be attended by several other ministers, including Agriculture Minister Amran Sulaiman, Trade Minister Enggartiasto Lukita and Agrarian and Spatial Planning Minister Sofyan Djalil.
The organizers will provide booths for those wishing to display their products at the event, Mona added.
"As many as 96 of the 98 booths have been booked," said Mona said, adding that the IPOC had attracted many visitors this year, because people from across the globe were paying serious attention to the palm oil business.
"Many of the foreign speakers have spoken at previous IPOC events, but there will also be several new faces," Mona said.
The foreigners scheduled to speak at the event include James Fry of LMC International Ltd of Britain, Rasheed Janmohammad of the Pakistan Edible Oil Refiners Association (PEORA) as well as Dorab Mistry from UK-based Godrej International Ltd. (bbn, The Jakarta Post)

We present a novel method to compute approximations of integrals over implicitly defined hypersurfaces. Control applications for thermonuclear fusion reactors, such as the upcoming ITER tokamak, are the initial motivation of this research work. The new method is based on a weak formulation that uses the coarea formula to circumvent an explicit integration over the hypersurfaces. As such it is possible to use standard quadrature rules in the spirit of hp/spectral finite element methods, and the expensive computation of explicit hypersurface parametrizations is avoided. We derive error estimates showing that high order convergence can be achieved provided the integrand and the hypersurface defining function are sufficiently smooth. The theoretical results are supplemented by numerical experiments including an application for magnetohydrodynamic equilibrium problems in nuclear fusion.Category: CE Seminar

Pacific Ethanol to Install 5 Megawatt Solar Energy System at Madera Plant
To provide more than $1 million in annual cost savings due to lower electricity costs
Pacific Ethanol, Inc. (NASDAQ: PEIX), a leading producer and marketer of low-carbon renewable fuels in the United States, announced it is installing a 5 megawatt (MW) solar photovoltaic (PV) power system designed and built by Borrego Solar Systems at its Madera, Calif., plant. The solar PV system is expected to reduce Pacific Ethanol's operating costs and improve its carbon score.
Neil Koehler, the company's president and CEO, stated: "The integration of solar power at our Madera plant underscores our commitment to optimize our plant assets, lower the carbon intensity of our ethanol and reduce our operating costs. We are proud to build the first ever commercial solar electricity system at a U.S. ethanol plant. Pending the completion of interconnection agreements with our local utility, Pacific Gas & Electric Co., we expect to begin operating the solar PV system at full capacity in early 2018."
5 MW Solar PV System
Through the displacement of more than 30 percent of the grid electricity currently used, the solar PV system is expected to reduce the Madera facility's annual utility costs by more than $1 million as well as drive premium pricing on the ethanol produced due to improvements in its carbon-intensity score. The system also qualifies for the Energy Investment Tax Credit, further accentuating its attractive investment profile.
"Pacific Ethanol represents the new generation of fuel companies—low carbon fuel production powered by zero carbon energy," said Chris Otness, Borrego Solar project developer. "This will be one of the largest single-site net metered projects in PG&E territory. Historically these types of projects were limited to a single megawatt, but given the recent CPUC NEM 2.0 ruling, large energy users are now able to go above that threshold and offset a significantly larger portion of their overall usage. In addition, by financing this project through PACE, Pacific Ethanol is able to retain full ownership of the system from day one and capture the tax incentives afforded to solar system owners."
SolarPACE™ Program Financing
Pacific Ethanol financed $10 million of the expected $11 million total investment through the CleanFund SolarPACE™ program, which provides for immediate positive cash flow and a financing term of 20 years.
Greg Saunders, chief executive officer of CleanFund. Stated, "We're honored Pacific Ethanol has selected CleanFund as its financing partner. The growing market for commercial PACE loans represents a large-scale opportunity to provide cost-effective power to an increasing number of industries, and we are excited to partner with the company as it leads the way in the deployment of renewable energy power systems."
CleanFund Commercial PACE Capital is the #1 direct provider of long-term financing for energy efficiency, water conservation, renewable energy and seismic improvements to commercial, multifamily and other nonresidential properties in the U.S. For more information, please visit www.CleanFund.com.

Camelot Custom- Verandah at Silverleaf
Bespoke /biˈspoʊk/ is a British word that means a clothing item made to a buyer's specification; personalized or tailored. While the term historically is applied to men's tailored clothing, it has recently become part of the American parlance to include footwear and fine jewelry, implying measurement and fitting. For most non-clothing items, the term built to order is used instead, but at Camelot Homes we know that bespoke also applies to homebuilding.
The Living Room- Interior Design by Pat Hasbrook Interiors
Originating from Savile Row, a street in London considered the "Golden mile of tailoring," the word bespoke itself is derived from the verb to bespeak, or "speak for something." When our Camelot customers speak to us about what they yearn for in a home, we listen. We know that there is no one with a more clear idea of what they want from a home than the person who will be building a life there. Our homebuyers are the designer and we are the tailor…
The Kitchen and Dining Area
With more than four decades of experience building the Valley's finest homes, Camelot Homes now offers our legacy of craftsmanship and attention to detail to our client's custom home or remodeling project. Whether starting anew or redesigning an existing space, our expert team offers our sophisticated, innovative and award-winning designs to bring our customer's dreams to life. We make the process simple and worry-free every step of the way, leaving our customers to enjoy their home — brand new or lovingly reimagined.
And there is always room for fun…
Like the finest piece of custom-made jewelry, we will deliver a satisfying personalized experience from concept to completion with value that endures long after we hand over the keys.

Generating Ability Scores
For this campaign, please use the Purchase method of ability score generation from the Pathfinder Core Rulebook p. 15. You may spend 20 points on Ability Scores, using Table 1-1 on p. 16.
The mythological setting of this campaign means that, in many cases, adventurers and heroes may hail from unique backgrounds. Players may opt to create such a character using the rules for playing a monstrous character found on p. 314 of the Pathfinder Bestiary. The recommended level structure found in that rulebook entry will also be used, though players should note that they will gain additional levels through the course of play, and at the GMs discretion, not at character creation.
Standard character races, both new and familiar, that are not unusual for this campaign setting are as follows. Please see the Wiki entry linked below for more information, as the racial traits or setting notes may vary from those in typical Pathfinder RPG settings.
|Nearly every forested region has colonies of these diminutive, enigmatic people.
|These smaller cousins of centaurs deal often with Man, whether through cooperation or conflict.
|Due to the mingling of demigods and Man, those with divine heritage are not rare.
|The common race of Men inhabit much of the temperate, pastoral regions of the world.
|Fecundity personified, hobgoblins are a potent force during the Bronze Age.
|The sandy-scaled folk are known for the temples they build in desolate regions.
|Willowings are hardy and clever tree-folk with mythical origins as a communal wood.
Please note that the standard races found in the Pathfinder RPG are not commonplace in Kosm, and as such, their use by players will be considered in the same vein as monster races as above.

Creating a new page
To create a new page, just make a name and surround it with double square brackets like so: A New Page. When you save the page, the link will show up and you can click on it to create the new page.
Linking to existing pages
To link to existing pages, use the same double square brackets. For example, here's a link to this page: Main Page
Linking to a page with different text
If you don't want to use the page's name as the link text, you can specify your own text by placing a vertical bar | and the link text in the link like so: Linking with different text
Linking to characters
For PCs and NPCs in your campaign, the easiest thing is to use the PC/NPC Link Lookup in the sidebar to the right. It's quite handy! Otherwise, the links behave much like a wiki link, just with a colon at the start.
HTML and Textile
To style things how you want, you can use either HTML (with some restrictions) or a simple formatting language called Textile. It's up to you, but Textile is pretty easy, while simultaneously allowing for lots of customization.

Windows XP
Based on previous experiences upgrading to newer versions of Windows, we thought upgrading to Windows XP would be painful, and indeed, it had its ups and downs. Some machines took the upgrade with no difficulty, but we had trouble installing on other machines. The 14 machines we used as a test-bed all had different processors types and versions of previous Windows OSs installed.
To start, we carefully planned out our installation by making sure that we had a way to access the Interneta requirement unique to Windows XPshould we need to seek and download the latest device driver updates for our machines' hardware. To our surprise, all of our hardware was detected during the installation, and we had no configuration issues once the installation process was complete.
If you need to tweak your system, say by adding or removing new hardware, you'll return to that Windows standby the Control Panel. New icons now combine the old, familiar task groups and device areas. For instance, if you want to set up a digital camera, as we did, make sure you look under Printers and Other Hardware.
Many device and system options are now grouped together. For example, Performance and Maintenance now groups Administrative Tools, Scheduled Tasks, and Power Options. The new look and directory structure aim to help novices find the tools they need, but they may be confusing at first to more experienced Windows users. That said, the new groupings make sense once you get used to them.

When I read the Word I see over and over again how God provided, cared for, prepared the way, and watched over his children time and time again. I read it and think, "Wow! See how the Lord provides for the Israelites here, or protected David when he fought Goliath." I see that the Lord is good and will take care of his people.
Then I close my Bible and live my life in fear, anxiety, or worry about the future. Of course, God took care of the people in biblical times, but will he really do the same for me?
He will. He does. He has. Over and over again in my life God has proven faithful, opened doors, and done mighty works before my eyes. Based on his Word and work in my life, I have no reason to doubt that he will come through again.
Sadly, I confess I do. When I am in the moment I become like Peter when he was walking on the water to Jesus--I get distracted by the winds and the waves; taking my eyes off of Jesus. Instead if looking and trusting in the author and perfecter of my faith I am afraid. I live as if I do not believe the God of the Bible--the God who provided for Abraham, Joseph, Moses, Elijah, and Paul--can do the same for me.
No more. I learned the importance of a spiritual maker a long time ago. We can see evidence of this all the way back to the Old Testament when the Lord made covenants with his people. Often they would set up a stone monument to remember what the Lord did for them in that place. An example of this can be found in Joshua 4. The Israelites are finally crossing the Jordan River. Here is what is recorded in verses 5-7:
"And Joshua said to them, 'Pass on before the ark of the LORD your God into the midst of the Jordan, and take up each of you a stone upon his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the people of Israel, that this may be a sign among you. When your children ask in time to come, 'What do those stones mean to you?' then you shall tell them that the waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the LORD. When it passed over the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan were cut off. So these stones shall be to the people of Israel a memorial forever.'"
They set up the twelve stones as a reminder, but it was not enough to just build a memorial. It was important for them to always remember what the Lord had done. There is a lesson that we need to learn: the people of Israel forgot the mighty works of the Lord and chased after false gods.
Sometimes I catch myself thinking, "How could they be so foolish? Did they not remember when the Lord delivered them from the land of Egypt? How he also led them by a cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night. Why did they so easily forget the time when he parted the Red Sea so they could cross over on dry ground? What about the manna, Jordan River, and the countless other times that the Lord had delivered them? How could they so quickly forget?"
I believe it is because they focused on the size of the problem that they faced and failed to remember what God had done for them. They did not trust that the Lord would come through for them as he always did.
Does this sound familiar? I see this happen all to often in my life. I want to always trust in the Lord and that he will direct my steps. We can do this by constantly spending time in the Word to remind ourselves of the truth and by setting up our own spiritual markers like the Israelites did in Joshua 4.
The ending of the chapter is a great example of what we are to do with the markers. Verse 21 picks up with Joshua addressing the Israelites.
'And he said to the people of Israel, "When your children ask their fathers in times to come, 'What do these stones mean?' then you shall let your children know, 'Israel passed over this Jordan on dry ground.' For the LORD your God dried up the waters of the Jordan for you until you passed over, as the LORD your God did to the Red Sea, which he dried up for us until we passed over, so that all the peoples of the earth may know that the hand of the LORD is mighty, that you may fear the LORD your God forever."'
His hand is mighty. He will never leave us. He is the Lord forever. Remember what he has done in your life. Press on for the prize with faith that he will take you by the hand and guide you through just as he has in the past and wants to do today.

No Link Between Androgen Levels and Risk for Prostate Cancer
February 1, 2008 — Blood levels of androgens and other sex hormones do not seem to be related to the risk for prostate cancer. The finding comes from a huge pooled analysis of data from 18 studies, published online in the January 29 Advance Access issue and will appear in the February 6 issue of the Journal of the National Cancer Institute. It "confirms the lack of evidence to support an androgen–prostate cancer hypothesis," according to an accompanying editorial.
A link between elevated androgen levels and an increase in the risk for prostate cancer has been widely hypothesized, despite limited supportive epidemiologic evidence, comment Paul Godley, MD, PhD, and colleagues from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, in an accompanying editorial. Androgens play a key role in the development of the prostate, and androgen suppression in advanced cancer can lead to a dramatic regression of the disease, they point out. Hence, there has been an "intense and sustained interest in confirming an androgen-driven hypothesis," they add.
The new analysis provides no evidence of such a link, however. An international collaboration of researchers, headed by Andrew W. Roddam, DPhil, from the University of Oxford, Oxford, United Kingdom, took another look at the original data collected in the 18 studies, consisting of 3886 men with prostate cancer and 6438 controls. Each of the studies had looked at the relationship between androgens and the risk for prostate cancer, but the results were inconclusive; some suggested a positive association, but many of the studies had limited power, the researchers comment. In the new analysis, all of the data from these previous studies were pooled together. The team looked at blood samples taken before the men developed prostate cancer and analyzed serum concentrations of testosterone, free testosterone, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S), androstenedione, androstanediol glucuronide, estradiol, and calculated free estradiol. They found no significant relationship between the serum levels of any of these hormones and the risk of developing prostate cancer.
This is an "impressive pooled analysis" that enhances "our understanding of prostate cancer epidemiology," the editorialists comment. It also offers a new opportunity because it now "obliges the scientific community to move past a seductive, clinically relevant, and biologically plausible hypothesis and get on with the difficult task of exploring, analyzing, and characterizing modifiable risk factors for prostate cancer."
However, the question of where to go from here will take some serious discussion and debate, Dr. Godley commented to Medscape Oncology. "I'm pretty sure that there is not an obvious answer to what are the most likely causes of prostate cancer," he said.
The finding also raises questions about the use of finasteride for the prevention of prostate cancer. This drug, a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor, blocks the conversion of testosterone into the more potent DHT. In the Prostate Cancer Prevention Trial, previously reported by Medscape Oncology, finasteride reduced the occurrence of prostate cancer by approximately 25% during a 7-year period, although the risk for high-grade tumors was higher in the treated vs the untreated group. These results offer a "tantalizing possibility for effective prostate cancer chemoprevention," add the editorialists, but the hypothesis that provided the theoretical foundation for this trial has now been "convincingly debunked" by the latest finding.
However, this finding will probably not affect the use of finasteride for prostate cancer prevention, although it undermines part of the rationale for its use, Dr. Godley commented to Medscape Oncology. "I'm not sure that finasteride is being used much for that purpose anyway." In addition, the theory is a little different in each of these 2 trials, he pointed out. The current study set out to investigate whether high androgen levels increase the risk for prostate cancer and showed that they do not, whereas the finasteride trial set out to determine whether lowering androgen levels reduces the risk for prostate cancer and showed that it did.

This is a discussion to focus the feedback and support of ardupilot on the PixRacer board from AUAV.co.
We believe that all teething problems encountered are now resolved and so we recommend people load Copter-3.3.4 which is available for all multicopters through the Mission Planner's (and other GCS's) Install Firmware screens. Note that because regular Pixhawks are still on Copter-3.3.3 the install icon may show Copter-3.3.3 but rest assured, Copter-3.3.4 will be installed (you can check the version by looking at the very top of the Mission Planner).

The pixracer is oriented correctly. Not sure about the GPS.
But I have issues w/ the internal compass, and am wondering if others do..
Its offsets are quite high when using it stacked w/ the acsp4. My internal compass has offsets around 400. I had an auav-x2 in the same frame and its highest offset was 200. Only change is replacing the auav-x2 and its power module with the pixracer and acsp4. Everything else in the frame is the same.
Also, anyone know what to set the "BAT_AMP_PERVOLT" to, for the ACSP4? I was able to measure voltage and set that multiplier correctly, but I don't have an ammeter suitable for this.
If I look on a "dot" located on the compass module, the dot is placed in left bottom corner - GPS oriented like on the picture I provided. Also, saw some post on Drotek forum. I hope it is correct. Anyway, need some confirmation that my MP compass page setup is correct before I will do a calibration.
Me, in a bigger quad, dissabled the int compass and finish the compass history like that, many flights and no more problems with compass now
It looks good to me. Just do the calibration. Worst that can happen if it's wrong, is north won't actually point north. Then you can figure out which way it's wrong.
I have my internal enabled... It fly's fine. The offsets are bad, but it functions.
So, I'd leave your screen exactly how it is, and see if you can get a good calibration.
As long as everything is under 400 for your internal one, it should be OK.
Actually, I think you should uncheck "automatically learn offsets". I'm not sure though.. Personally, I've never used that.
If you can't get a good calibration on the internal compass, then simply uncheck "use this compass" under "compass #2".
I would be careful flying with really high offsets. The newer FW is better at dealing with such things I think but still it can lead to a FC wigging out. I had a fly away lost my quad because of this. This was way back with 3.1 so maybe it's better now... but be careful is all I'm saying. Do you have all arming checks on? No warnings?
For now it seems we choose between Pixracer+WiFi using PX4 and QGroundControl, or Pixracer+traditional telemetry using ArduPilot and Mission Planner. I still haven't had time to dig into the MavESP8266 firmware, but I'm not aware of anyone successfully using the WiFi with ArduPilot and Mission Planner. For me I will go back to PX4 because in my limited time I've been more successful with that on Pixracer. If I work out a reliable ArduPilot setup I will offer it to others for reference.
I hope they get that ironed out because I ordered one and use ArduPilot with APM Planner and MavPilot also [ Mac ] Hopefully it will work with Tower as well. I think Bill mentioned it should work with MavPilot via wifi using UDP.
I have not found that to be the case, either with Mission Planner or QGroundControl. PX4 on QGroundControl on the other hand connects consistently any time the Pixracer WiFi network is connected.
Happy to hack deeper via console/terminal/TCP/UDP to sort out what is happening, because this has consistently been the case for me. I have switched back and forth between PX4 and ArduPilot a number of times.

Khusen Khalmurzaev is still in business with golden statement
3 Apr 2016 20:30
Khusen Khalmurzaev, the other of the twin who fights U90kg qualified again for a final, this time in the occasion of the Grand Prix of Samsun. The Russian again proved to have exceptional talent although he was not among the favourites of the day. His opponent was Mammadali Mehdiyev of Azerbaijan.
After 45 seconds both athletes were penalised with a shido for blocking their opponent. One minute later, it was Mehdiyev's turn to be penalised again for avoiding the fight. The next penalty given to both athletes, put the Azeri in danger, only one penalty away from the disqualification. Concluding a very tactical match, Khalmurzaev could keep the penalty difference in his benefit for a first Grand Prix victory for the Russian.
Mehdiyev had a difficult semi-final against the veteran of the day Tiago Camilo. 16 years ago, a record, the Brazilian was already present in Sydney, but it was in the U73kg weight category, where he obtained a silver medal losing to the Italian Giuseppe Maddaloni. 8 Years later he won the bronze in Beijing in U81kg and in London finished 5th. Still at the top level, Camilo was close to enter the final when Mehdiyev scored the yuko that opened the doors to a possible place on the top of the podium to the Azeri.
The first bronze medal fight saw Nikoloz Sherazadishvili (ESP) and Tiago Camilo (BRA) facing to step on the podium. After three minutes, Sherazadishvili was the first to score a waza-ari with an opportunistic counterattack. But what a fighter! Two seconds before the final gong, Camilo once again dropped on his knees for a superb drop-seoi-nage that was counted as a waza-ari, opening the doors of the golden score. A few seconds later, the Brazilian hooked the foot of Sherazadishvili with a ko-uchi-gari for a second waza-ari, offering him the bronze medal.
In the second bronze medal fight it was Patryk Ciechomski (POL) who was opposed to Dilshod Choriev (UZB). Choriev scored the first waza-ari with a left handed hane-goshi technique, close to a uchi-mata. Ciechomski had to take some risks. The Uzbek took the opportunity to counterattack the weak uchi-mata of the Polish to score a second waza-ari to conclude the fight. This is the sixth Grand Prix medal for Choriev.

An Ideal Mobile Game for Dead Island and Zombie Games Fans
The world of mobile gaming is undoubtedly a fast evolving sector. Developers for both Android and iOS are utilising modern technology to design and develop appealing games. Different genres are receiving unique developments to suit their users. If you are a fan of zombie genre video games, then your life is complete after the launch of Dead Island Survivors game. This video game is a definite fit for Dead Island franchise lovers, and its developer seems to have the right grasp of what fans want.
First Impression after Launching
After the launch of Dead Island Survivors on 4th of July 2018, a bunch of mobile game reviewers thronged the internet with various reviews. These reviews covered diverse aspects like graphics, ease of playing, controls, among others. But one conclusion emerges; Developer Fishlabs was crafting a perfect fit for Dead Island funs during its two years in soft launch. The game soft-launched in 2016 on the iOS platform, before undergoing modifications for the Android system. Even to novice gamers, the kind of development period attached to Dead Island Survivors attracts an impressive review.
Get it right
The gaming mode involves two stages. In the first step, you start your mission, known as New Hope, on a beach. The zombies are around you, and you need to make the first action – kill them. So, how do you kill the zombies? There is a massive axe at your disposal. Use the equipment to auto kill your enemies.
Killing the zombies involves tapping on each of them. Even though the graphics are impressive, there are no on-screen controls. The game consists of swiping and touching as control means. You are also acquainted with special moves as you familiarise with the game.
The second and third parts of Dead Island Survivors follow. At the start of the second chapter, you get the tower defence elements. Your mission is to trap the zombies by placing Auto-Turrets or Barricades around the perimeter. The stage has many locked options such as Thrasher, Zapper, Artillery, and Crossbow. After placing a trap, tap the 'Start the Action' button and enjoy.
After striking all the zombies, you get access to the looting system. Go through items in the suitcase and take an element of choice. The items serve as rewards for a successful mission. The items you can pick include a flamer and electric fence for barricading purposes. You can as well get cash to upgrade game levels.
Pros and Cons
In Dead Island Survivors, it's hard to talk about cons, literally. The game is full of advantages such as nice graphics, smooth controls, and interactive inter-phase. Besides, there are no repercussions for not completing missions. There are also goodies after completing them, and you can upgrade to any levels.
The main disadvantage of this game is that many options to trap the zombies in the second chapter are locked, with only two options available for players at the initial level. Also, the game has in-game ads, but you can eliminate them with as little as $ 0.99.

Pediatric Diabetes
In 2012, diabetes affected 366 million people worldwide out of which 2.1 million of them were Sri Lankans (10.3%). Globally, the incidence of Type 1 diabetes (T1DM) is on the rise particularly in the <5 year age group. A collaborative research performed, indicated that 1 in 3 people have central obesity while 1 in 5 are overweight in the study population of urban young between the ages of 5-40 years. This is mainly due to an inactive life style. According to the Diabetes Association of Sri Lanka, 23% of urban young (under 5-40 years of age) are at high risk (2 or more risk factors – Diabrisk-SL research done at National Diabetes Centre) followed by 8.2% of urban young (under 20 years of age) have abnormal glucose levels. They further indicated 50% of the diabetic sufferers were under 16 years of age.

Ruling: Social Networks Not Responsible for Assaults
LOS ANGELES, July 1 (Reuters) - A California appeals court has ruled that Internet servers like MySpace cannot be held liable when minors are sexually assaulted by people they meet on the websites, an opinion filed late on Tuesday showed.
The ruling by the Second District Court of Appeals in Los Angeles is consistent with federal appeals court rulings, and comes a day ahead of the sentencing, also in Los Angeles, of a Missouri woman accused of harassing a teen-age girl to the point of suicide using a fake MySpace profile.
The appellate court consolidated several similar lawsuits brought by minor girls dubbed "Julie Does" and their parents or guardians, claiming that MySpace failed to implement available age-verification software or set the default security on the girls' accounts to "private."
But the Los Angeles-based appeals court found that a section of the Communications Decency Act immunizes Web servers against the girls' claims of negligence and product liability.
Attorneys for the plaintiffs could not be reached for comment. MySpace, which is owned by News Corp, had no immediate comment.
The opinion is "very important" in light of recent calls by several states' attorneys general for online classifieds site Craigslist to remove what they claimed were illegal sex ads, Electronic Frontier Foundation spokeswoman Rebecca Jeschke said. The controversy erupted after two people were allegedly killed by others they met through the online ads.
Social networking sites were also watching the so-called MySpace Mom case in Los Angeles, in which Missouri mother Lori Drew was indicted on felony conspiracy charges for harassing her daughter's rival with cruel messages via a fake MySpace profile.
A federal jury cleared Drew of the most serious charges but found her guilty of three misdemeanor counts. She faces up to a three years in prison and fines when she is sentenced on Thursday. The case made worldwide headlines and brought calls for social networking sites to crack down on such activities.
"The idea is, you hold the speaker responsible not the soapbox," Jeschke said. "If you want any kind of social interaction on the Internet this is very important."
The opinion is Julie Doe II et al v. MySpace Inc, Case No. B205643, Second District Court of Appeals. (Reporting by Gina Keating; Editing by Gary Hill)
