Where do you fit in the 2012 ranking of total money income by age group in the United States?
While we've previously built a tool where you can find out your percentile ranking among all individuals, men, women, families and households in the U.S., we thought it might be fun to break the data for individuals down a little differently - by age group!
Our chart below reveals what that distribution looked like for 2012, as indicated by the curves showing the major income percentiles from the 10th through the 90th percentile for each indicated age group on the horizontal axis.
The data in the chart represents the income distribution for the estimated 194,271,175 Americans from Age 15 through Age 74. As such, the space between each of the percentile curves on the chart then covers the total money income of some 19.4 million individual Americans.
What stands out most in the chart are the changes in the vertical spread between the 10th, 50th and 90th percentiles by age group, which might be taken as a measure of the relative income inequality for each age group. For example, we see the Age 15-24 group seems to have the greatest income equality, with the least amount of vertical separation between each of the income percentile thresholds.
We said "seems" for the Age 15-24 group, because believe it or not, this group has the highest income inequality of any age group as measured by the Gini index. The reason why has to do with the high concentration of very low income-earning individuals within this age range (for example, about 50% of all minimum wage earners are found in this age group!), against which a relative handful of very talented young people, including entertainers and star athletes, go straight from their school years to multi-million dollar incomes, often before many of these individuals see their careers flameout before they even make it into the next age group. The same phenomenon isn't true for the older age groups, who all tend to gain in income as they gain greater experience, as their Gini index values do follow the pattern we observe in the chart above.
Speaking of which, one thing that's pretty clear in the chart is that incomes at each major percentile threshold increase across the board as individuals accumulate work experience up through the Age 40-44 group. Above that point, that's would seem to only be true for above-median income-earning individuals.
Going back to the overall patterns we observe in this income distribution visualization, we see that the greatest vertical spread between the 10th and 90th percentiles occurs for the Age 50-54 group, which corresponds to the peak earning years for Americans.
But that vertical spread indicating income inequality diminishes rapidly for older age groups, which is consistent with the transition from earning wages and salaries to only having retirement income. It's especially interesting to see that the peak the retirement-associated decline occurs earlier for the 90th percentile income-earners, while it occurs around Age 55-59 for the lower income-earning percentiles.
The vertical spread between the 10th and 50th percentiles are interesting as well. Here, see see that after rising rapidly for the young, the 50th percentile income level begins to plateau for those around Age 35-39, then holds fairly level through Age 55-59, after which it declines as older individuals increasingly leave wage and salary-earning jobs they've had for years for retirement.
We'll revisit this chart in an upcoming post, where we'll conduct something of a thought experiment....
We took the age-based total money income data presented by the U.S. Census to construct cumulative income distributions for each included age group, then used ZunZun's curve-fitting tools to develop mathematical models for each to calculate the income that goes with a particular income percentile. The indicated incomes in the chart above are typically within a few hundred dollars of the IRS' published data.
As another hint to what's coming soon here at Political Calculations, those mathematical models just might show up in the future as a new tool that you can use to see exactly what your income percentile ranking is within your own age group!

Acne is the most common skin condition in the United States. Although it's common, accurate information about acne can be scarce. This can make it difficult to get clearer skin. The information on this site can help you understand acne and how to successfully treat it.
Myths about acne are as common as the skin problem. One common myth is that you have to let acne run its course.
Dermatologists know that letting acne runs its course is not always the best advice.
Not just teens have acne. A growing number of women have acne in their 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond. Dermatologists are not sure why this is happening. But dermatologists understand that adult acne can be particularly frustrating.
Images used with permission of the American Academy of Dermatology National Library of Dermatologic Teaching Slides.
Many people think that acne is just pimples. But a person who has acne can have any of these blemishes:
Acne can appear on the back, chest, neck, shoulders, upper arms and buttocks.
Acne can cause more than blemishes. Studies show that people who have acne can have:
Low self-esteem: Many people who have acne say that their acne makes them feel bad about themselves. Because of their acne, they do not want to be with friends. They miss school and work. Grades can slide, and absenteeism can become a problem because of their acne.
Depression: Many people who have acne suffer from more than low self-esteem. Acne can lead to a medical condition called depression. The depression can be so bad that people think about what it would be like to commit suicide. Many studies have found that teens who believe that they have "bad" acne were likely to think about committing suicide.
Dark spots on the skin: These spots appear when the acne heals. It can take months or years for dark spots to disappear.
Scars (permanent): People who get acne cysts and nodules often see scars when the acne clears. You can prevent these scars. Be sure to see a dermatologist for treatment if you get acne early — between 8 and 12 years old. If someone in your family had acne cysts and nodules, you also should see a dermatologist if you get acne. Treating acne before cysts and nodules appear can prevent scars.
If you have a bad case of acne, you may feel like you are the only one. But many people have acne. It is the most common skin problem in the United States. About 40 to 50 million Americans have acne at any one time.
Most people who have acne are teenagers or young adults, but acne can occur at any age. Newborn babies can get acne. Men and women get acne. Some women get acne when they reach middle age.
Acne appears when a pore in our skin clogs. This clog begins with dead skin cells. Normally, dead skin cells rise to surface of the pore, and the body sheds the cells. When the body starts to make lots of sebum (see-bum), oil that keeps our skin from drying out, the dead skin cells can stick together inside the pore. Instead of rising to the surface, the cells become trapped inside the pore.
Sometimes bacteria that live on our skin, p. acnes, also get inside the clogged pore. Inside the pore, the bacteria have a perfect environment for multiplying very quickly. With loads of bacteria inside, the pore becomes inflamed (red and swollen). If the inflammation goes deep into the skin, an acne cyst or nodule appears.
To diagnose acne, a dermatologist will first examine your skin to make sure you have acne. Other skin conditions can look like acne. If you have acne, the dermatologist will:
Today, there are many effective acne treatments. This does not mean that every acne treatment works for everyone who has acne. But it does mean that virtually every case of acne can be controlled.
People who have mild acne have a few blemishes. They may have whiteheads, blackheads, papules, and/or pustules (aka pimples). Many people can treat mild acne with products that you can buy without a prescription. A product containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid often clears the skin. This does not mean that the acne will clear overnight.
Despite the claims, acne treatment does not work overnight. At-home treatment requires 4-8 weeks to see improvement. Once acne clears, you must continue to treat the skin to prevent breakouts.
If you have a lot of acne, cysts, or nodules, a medicine that you can buy without a prescription may not work. If you want to see clearer skin, you should see a dermatologist. Dermatologists offer the following types of treatment:
Acne treatment that you apply to the skin: Most acne treatments are applied to the skin. Your dermatologist may call this topical treatment. There are many topical acne treatments. Some topicals help kill the bacteria. Others work on reducing the oil. The topical medicine may contain a retinoid, prescription-strength benzoyl peroxide, antibiotic, or even salicylic acid. Your dermatologist will determine what you need.
Acne treatment that works throughout the body: Medicine that works throughout the body may be necessary when you have red, swollen types of acne. This type of treatment is usually necessary to treat acne cysts and nodules. Your dermatologist may prescribe one or more of these:
Procedures that treat acne: Your dermatologist may treat your acne with a procedure that can be performed during an office visit. These treatments include:
Waiting for acne to clear on its own can be frustrating. Without treatment, acne can cause permanent scars, low self-esteem, depression, and anxiety.
To avoid these possible outcomes, dermatologists recommend that people treat acne. When the skin clears, treatment should continue. Treatment prevents new breakouts. Your dermatologist can tell you when you no longer need to treat acne to prevent breakouts.
You can reduce your acne by following these skin care tips from dermatologists.
Today, virtually every case of acne can be successfully treated. Dermatologists can help treat existing acne, prevent new breakouts and reduce your chance of developing scars. If you have questions or concerns about caring for your skin, you should make an appointment to see a dermatologist.

Steven Tyler regrets some of the things he said about his Aerosmith bandmates in a candid news special on the band.
The Love in an Elevator singer accused his colleagues of riding his coattails, insisting his quest for perfection has helped them all become millionaire hitmakers, while his bandmates opened up about Tyler's cruel and mean tendencies, revealing the outrageous frontman is tough to work with at times.
But the most eye-opening part of the 60 Minutes expose came when guitarist Joe Perry talked about his own tempestuous relationship with Tyler. The rocker said he tolerates his songwriting sidekick because he is an immense talent.
And when Perry was asked if the band's disagreements over the years have ever led to a bust-up, he said, "That would damage the relationship too much; besides he needs his jaw to sing."
The offhand comment didn't sit well with his frontman when it was repeated to him later in the interview.
Clearly a little hurt, Tyler responded, "It's a terrible message that sends. I always sleep with one eye open with him… He needs his jaw to sing? Does that mean that maybe there's a fight in the near future? I think he's (Perry) still got a good, strong ego."
Now Tyler and his bandmates have seen the TV special, the frontman admits they went a little too far and got a little too candid in front of the TV cameras.
He tells Access Hollywood, "We all realize we might have said a little too much. Being Italian, you know, there's some things you don't say. There was stuff we were going through."

Or... try Promession:
Coffins are fed in one end [of a machine], and the body removed from the coffin within the unit and then treated with liquid nitrogen.And the whole thing is supposed to become soil fairly quickly.
The body is then vibrated until the body fragments, after which the remains are dried and refined further, and then passed through filters to remove metals, including dental amalgam. The remains are then poured into a square biodegradable coffin, again automatically, for shallow burial.
Here's my question: Isn't old-fashioned burial greener? It's carbon sequestration, right?

How to Use
the Readings
Inquiry Question
Reading 2: Chatham at the
In the spring of 1862 the Union armies under command of Major General George B. McClellan began the Peninsula Campaign--an effort to take the Confederate capital of Richmond. Part of the Union forces were sent to Fredericksburg to guard the path to Washington. During that period Union General Irvin McDowell used Chatham as his headquarters. McDowell carefully protected the resources on the plantation. Valuable wheat crops were placed under armed guard and the house itself was not harmed. In early May President Abraham Lincoln and Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton visited this Union headquarters to confer with McDowell on strategy and inspect the now occupied town. In late May the army left Fredericksburg and moved toward the Shenandoah Valley. Throughout that spring, summer, and into the fall, however, a parade of officers and men passed through Chatham's halls. As time went on, respect for the house and property disappeared. On July 2, 1862, the Fredericksburg Christian Banner reported that "the grounds surrounding [Chatham], which had been tended with so much care, were now covered with the tents of staff officers and orderlies; the fences were gone, the shrubbery destroyed, and the whole plain, now covered with troops, was, aside from the bustle of marshaling hosts, a barren, uninviting waste."
In the weeks prior to the Battle of Fredericksburg (December 11-13, 1862), Chatham once again became a Union headquarters. In mid-November the Union army, divided into three grand divisions, arrived on Stafford Heights overlooking Fredericksburg. General Ambrose E. Burnside, the army's commander, was headquartered at the Phillips House (see Map 2) while Edwin V. Sumner, commander of the Right Grand Division, used Chatham as his command post. On December 11, the Union army crossed the Rappahannock, encountering Confederate troops in the town of Fredericksburg before making its way toward Confederate General Robert E. Lee's forces posted on the high ground west of the city. On that same morning, Burnside visited Sumner at Chatham and noted its unparalleled view of the town. From Chatham it was possible to see upstream and downstream along Stafford Heights, where hundreds of Union artillery pieces were posted. One officer remembered that December 11 visit to Chatham: "Pausing in our route, at General Sumner's headquarters there was spread below the once beautiful town of Fredericksburg, now in flames [from the Union artillery], and from all appearances to soon become a mass of ruins...."1 Chatham's location would thus make it a prime center from which Sumner could send and receive information from various positions during the ensuing battle. On December 13 Burnside ordered attacks on the Confederates at Marye's Heights and below Fredericksburg at Prospect Hill. The attacks failed, and Union soldiers perished by the thousands. In fact, on that day General Lee won his most one-sided victory of the war.
The Federal soldiers who survived the fighting wearily recrossed the river to Stafford Heights, where they spent the winter in makeshift huts recuperating, training, and waiting to fight the enemy again. These soldiers needed large amounts of wood to build their log huts and corduroy roads (roads made by placing logs crosswise on footpaths, especially in low-lying areas, to provide traction for men's boots and horse's hooves) and to make fires with which to cook and keep warm. In their search for wood they cut down most of the trees in a huge area around Chatham. Also burned, according to one account, was anything in the house made of wood. Some Union troops--frontline guards or pickets--camped in the house where they were somewhat protected from the raw wind and cold. One man remembered:
...our reserve was stationed in a ravine near the Lacy house, without warm food, or even fire to make coffee--so indispensable to a soldier, entirely without shelter, and for the greater portion of the time with clothing wet through, and frozen stiff, unable during the whole time to lie down or sleep. The weather for the entire winter was terribly severe, raining and freezing most of the time....2
During the spring of 1863, Chatham was used again briefly as a command post. The Union army tried to break through the Confederate defenses at Chancellorsville to the west of Fredericksburg, but Stonewall Jackson drove them back in a surprise Confederate attack on May 2. Later on that day, Jackson was accidentally shot and mortally wounded by his own troops.
In the spring of 1864 cannon boomed and blood flowed again when the armies of Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee clashed twice--at the Wilderness Battlefield, and again at the prolonged and bloody Battle of Spotsylvania Court House. With each battle, Fredericksburg's sufferings increased; by the time the war ended, the town was a shambles and Chatham stood quiet and desolate as the armies moved north. Never again would it house Union generals, though it provided shelter as long as troops remained in the area.
Questions for Reading 2
1. Which Union generals used Chatham as headquarters?
2. Why was Chatham considered to be in a strategic location?
3. How did Chatham change between the time that Generals Irvin McDowell and Edwin V. Sumner occupied the house? Make a list of specific changes mentioned in the reading and then briefly explain why these changes occurred.
4. What happened to the town of Fredericksburg as a result of the cannon fire from Stafford Heights?
5. Can you think of somewhere in the world today where civilians' houses such as Chatham serve the military as bases or hospitals?

Can a Special Form of Folic Acid Treat Depression?
Maylin Rodriguez-Paez, RNDepression afflicts about 10% of Americans1 and it is estimated that one fourth of the US population will experience depression at some point during their lives3.
Many people find no relief whatsoever. In fact, about 30% don't respond to conventional treatments, leaving many feeling pretty hopeless2.
If you're one of these people, please pay close attention. Below, we'll explain how L-methylfolate, a special type of folic acid, could help treatment-resistant cases of depression.
Hopefully, you'll be as encouraged by this as we are.
When SSRI Drugs Don't WorkSSRIs (selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors) are the first line of treatment for depression, but they don't work in up to 60% of people who take them.3
In an effort to help such patients, many traditional doctors will simply increase the dose or switch them to another class of drugs. However, based on new research, better options may be on the table sometime in the near future. Thank goodness.
L-methylfolate + SSRIs Decrease Symptoms of DepressionIn a recent study, scientists gave L-methylfolate (or a placebo) in addition to a standard SSRI drug. Two randomized clinical trials were conducted with a total of 223 patients.
The participants were non-responders or partial responders to the SSRIs, meaning they didn't respond well to the SSRI treatment.
The first trial was split into three groups:
- The first group received 7.5 mg/day of L-methylfolate for 30 days and 15 mg for 30 days afterwards.
- The second group received a placebo for 30 days followed by 7.5 mg for the remaining 30 days.
- The third group received a placebo for 60 days.
The second trial was identical to the first, except that the L-methylfolate dosage was increased to 15 mg – two times the dose used in the first trial.
Fortunately, the results of the second trial were encouraging. Not only was the L-methylfolate well-tolerated, it was also effective in reducing symptoms.4
Twice as many people taking the 15 mg of L-methylfolate felt a response in 30 days compared to placebo, and they experienced an 84% greater reduction in depressive symptoms. Not bad at all, wouldn't you say?
Folic Acid Supports Neurotransmitter ProductionSo why did these patients improve while taking 15 mg of L-methylfolate?
Well, it's not 100% clear, but there could be a few different reasons. For one, they might have been deficient to begin with.
Research shows that people with folic acid deficiencies are more likely to be depressed.5 They also don't respond as well to anti-depressant drugs.3 In contrast, higher intakes of folic acid are associated with a lower risk of depression.3
Next, folic acid plays a very important role in neurotransmitter production. It produces SAMe (S-adenosyl-methionine) and BH4 (tetrahydrobiopterin), which are used to generate serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine.3
These compounds are really important for a healthy mood.
Yes, The Form of Folic Acid Really MattersBefore you start taking folic acid to support your mood, make sure you take the right form. L-methylfolate is the most effective form and the one you should be seeking.
When you consume folic acid (synthetic) or folate (natural), it's converted into L-methylfolate by an enzyme called MTHFR reductase.
This is the biologically active form and is the only form that will cross the blood-brain barrier for neurotransmitter production. It's also highly absorbable, being seven times more absorbable than folic acid.6
Unfortunately, about 60 percent of the US population has a genetic mutation which compromises this conversion.3 This genetic mutation has actually been found to correlate with depression7 and other mental health disorders. Taking L-methylfolate may help to bypasses this problem.
The Bottom LineSo what does this information imply? Simply put, optimizing your folate intake is important, especially if you're depressed and haven't had success with traditional treatments.
Has a nutritional change ever made a big impact on your mood? Please tell us about it in the comments!

In a hybrid form of entertainment that merges the dramatic appeal of TV with the interactiveness of video games, P15 Studios has conceived of an iPhone app in which live actors can be controlled in TV show-like games. Sound outlandish? Hollywood has already imagined how this technology could go wrong in the upcoming action film, Gamer. As amazing as the concept sounds, it looks like P15 Studios' idea will get its start on the small screen -- the really small screen.
The downtown Birmingham-based firm plans to use iPhone apps (fancy tech jargon for applications) to debut its first game later this year. It's a cost-effective route for the nearly one-year-old start-up to show its idea is as good as it sounds.
"It's going to prove the new business model and advertising model we have," says Doug Kinnison, co-founder of P15 Studios.
Tech start-ups across Metro Detroit are creating a chain of cottage industries in iPhone app development, which in turn generates fresh revenue streams in a battered economy, new hires in a time of record unemployment, and expanded business opportunities for the region's emerging entrepreneurial class.
"The future of computers is mobile," says Prof. Elliot Soloway, who started teaching an instantly popular iPhone applications class this earlier year at the University of Michigan. "The way we learn inside and outside of school is through mobile computing. Every kid has a cell phone these days."
Small screen, big profits
P15 Studios' long-term plan is to create video games for major playing systems, like X-Box and Wii. Kinnison sees it as a new industry with huge potential for both his partners and his region. He expects the day will soon come where his firm has to employ hundreds of people to develop just one game.
But before he can start playing in the big employment leagues, his company has to score some hits in the minors. That's iPhone territory, but the profit potential is anything but small.
Apple's App Store houses more than 25,000 apps that range in price from free to $9.99. The downward price pressure from all of the competition drives the most popular price to the standard cost of a song on iTunes - 99 cents. In May the company logged its billionth app download. To say the technology has triggered a software gold rush would be an understatement.
It takes between four and five figures to create an iPhone app, although investing six figures into properly developing and marketing one is not uncommon. Kinnison likes to give the example that he has heard of apps bringing in $60,000 a month or even $1 million within six weeks. He thinks doing the same for his firm will give it the chance to prove its product, create a few more jobs and make a tidy profit.
"It's the same as the big stuff but it's done at a micro level," Kinnison says.
New revenue streams and avenues
Vectorform isn't exactly a start-up anymore, it just operates like one at times. The Royal Oak-based firm specializes in interactive software design and development for websites and multi-touch hardware, such as iPhones.
Its latest thing is harnessing the emerging power of the iPhone app market. The company has created 10 apps within the last year, for everything from auto manufacturers at the Auto Show to its own personal releases. An average of 3-4 of its employees are building them at any given time, with the ability to scale up quickly.
Two of the apps it made on its own are top sellers at the App Store. Its SurfaceDJ is in the Top 5 Paid-For apps for music, while MeetMe is in the Top 4 for navigation. This has provided another reliable revenue stream for the firm and solid ground for a few more Metro Detroit jobs.
Some might think iPhones and their apps are a fad and will be nothing but fond memories and paperweights within a couple of years. However, the people at Vectorform argue that Apple and the 40 million iPhone users around the world are committed to the technology. Besides, they don't think the mobile computing concept is going anywhere.
"Technology is something that is always evolving," says Markus Sheldon, an account manager for Vectorform. "We want to be up on the latest and greatest technologies out there."
The apps can also be used as a marketing tool for businesses with built-in audiences. Ghostly International, the Ann Arbor-based electronic and ambient music label, created a unique one for iPhones that uses a "mood wheel" to blend different colors. The idea is to set the color that matches the user's mood and the app will match a playlist of songs from Ghostly's catalogue that users can listen to free of charge, similar to Pandora.
This paves the way for users to buy songs if they so desire. In this case, Ghostly doesn't make money off retailing the application. However, it would use it to help extend its reach to its customers and bolster its music sales. That in turn helps solidify its brand and stay connected with its fans in an increasingly viral world.
"There needs to be a purpose," Sheldon says. "There needs to be a reason for people to use it besides 'it should be fun.' "
Entrepreneurial opportunism Prof. Soloway's class might have been known as the iPhone apps class, but it was actually geared toward all platforms of smart phones. The most popular by far was the iPhone because it has such a proven market, but students also could design programs for Blackberry, Palm Pre and Google Android phones. These are considered unproven landscapes because the market for them hasn't taken off yet.
But these platforms do present an intriguing opportunity for tech entrepreneurs to get a quick start in the start-up game. Some firms will spends tens of thousands of dollars to create and roll out an iPhone app, with most going to hire iPhone app programmers and other marketing personnel. But programmers with the right skills need only to invest time in developing the code and following through on a viral marketing plan.
Soloway compares this time to when programmers were creating software and computer games on their kitchen tables and basements for the early versions of Windows. Now, the profit potential is unlike anything he has seen in his 30 years of teaching computer science.
"There has never been a time when a student can write a piece of programming and collect money on it in a short amount of time," Soloway says. "In the past there was always an intermediary that needed to be paid."
Gaurav Bhatnagar can attest to this. The 25-year-old Okemos native recently co-founded his own iPhone app-based start-up - Troubadour Mobile, which operates out of Ann Arbor's student-run TechArb business incubator. Bhatnagar and his partners (all recent graduates of the University of Michigan School of Information) respect the power of web-based businesses but see apps as having almost limitless potential for people without much capital.
"In a day or two you could build a small app and make it do something cool," Bhatnagar says. "It's pretty easy."
And pretty intriguing to a generation that was practically raised on mobile communications, starting with the cordless phone and evolving to cell phones.
"The mobile computer revolution hasn't even begun yet," Soloway says. "We have no idea what mobile computers will be like in five years. We're at the tip of the iceberg."

Michael Babb, long-time Control Engineering editor, dies
Michael P. Babb passed away April 6, 2011, after a short illness. After working in areas of applications programming and engineering services for nuclear instrumentation, Babb began his editorial career with Control Engineering in 1985. Babb was recognized globally for 26 years of writing and editing about automation and control systems, first noted as Control Engineering associate editor in the February 1985 edition, managing editor in November 1986, and editor-in-chief in November 1987, succeeding Ed Kompass. Babb also held posts of senior editor, international editor, and editor of Control Engineering Europe.
Under Babb's editorial leadership and journalistic example, Control Engineering continued to develop its reputation as a premier U.S. technology journal. With a global outlook from its 1954 beginning, the publication widened its international reach with Control Engineering International in 1993, later renamed Control Engineering Europe, which continues publishing today under a CFE Media-IML Group agreement. See Control Engineering's global publications.
In 1999, Babb relocated to the U.K., near London, with his family, to work on Control Engineering Europe, after years living in Elgin, IL, and working at Control Engineering while it was based in Barrington, IL, under Technical Publishing, then in Des Plaines, IL, at Cahners Publishing Co. (Control Engineering was subsequently published by Reed Business Information, and, as of June 2010, by CFE Media. www.cfemedia.com)
Frank Bartos, a long-time Control Engineering editor and continuing contributing content specialist, said Babb's "journalistic style shaped that magazine into a well-recognized, respected pan-European publication in the English language. The myriad meaningful articles he wrote reflected true passion for his work. Particularly his overview editorials about industrial control companies and their technology drew wide interest. Michael truly came into his own while working at CE Europe. Michael reached a large, loyal readership in Europe and beyond. He was welcome in the top offices of world-class automation companies. An anecdotal vignette about Michael involves his entrance to a major press conference. One of the hosts was overheard remarking to another, 'Automation control is now arriving.'
"Many readers, friends, and colleagues will sorely miss his passing," Bartos said. "However, they surely will remember Michal Babb as the consummate interviewer, editor, writer, and interpreter of automation technology. He was all that and more."
Michelle Palmer, MediaSolve partner, recalled a mid-1990s meeting on flow-chart programming with Babb and other Control Engineering staff, prior to her time as Control Engineering publisher: "Michael always seemed to have fun learning about the automation and control space, and his move to Europe was very exciting for him."
Peter Jago, owner, IML Group, noted Babb's "ability to communicate the intricacies of convergent technologies, in a clear, concise, interesting and informative manner…. A consummate professional, held in the highest regard by the people that worked with him and the market he served, his death is untimely, coming as it does just a few months after his retirement from the publication that really was his pride and joy and stands today as a fitting testimony to his talent."
Babb's wife, Sharon, preceded him in death in 2004. He has two daughters, Sarah and Melissa. He earned an Indiana University degree in physics. A family note said: "He had been sick a short time and his passing will be mourned by so many who knew him. Memorial arrangements were made for April 11, 2011, at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses located at the intersection of Mirador Crescent and Walter Rd in the Uplands, Swansea. Condolences may be sent to the family at 12 Kimberley Rd, Sketty, Swansea SA2 9DL."
Links to some Michael Babb articles
First known bylines for Babb were in April 1985, under the Control Engineering "Bookshelf" department page, Babb provided information and comments on several recently published books, "Measurement and Instrumentation for Control," "Power Electronics and Controls," and "Demystifying Artificial Intelligence." Of the last, Babb said, in part, "while many are pushing ahead with the technological challenges of AI, nobody is studying the potential marketplace for AI products… Not to worry; the authors tell us AI is here to stay, and give us plenty of reasons why."
Read Babb's first editorial, November 1987, in Control Engineering: "Yes, But… Will It Run in the Dark?"

News editor
Bald eagles have become a fixture in Marion County every winter, attracted by a surprisingly plentiful food source.
Every winter, full-grown shad die and float to the surface of lakes in the winter, an easy meal for eagles. Shad are small fish, larger than minnows, commonly eaten by sport fish.
With the easy pickings available, there have been as many as nine eagles sighted at once at the county lake, officials said.
Other species can be vulnerable to a more serious phenomenon called winterkill possibly decimating aquatic ecosystems. This winter hasn't been severe enough to prompt winterkill in the state, though, a fisheries biologist with Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks, and Tourism said.
Walter K. Dodds, distinguished professor of biology at Kansas State University, said winterkill primarily happens in lakes that are prone to algae blooms, as the county lake and reservoir have been the past several summers.
When such a lake freezes over, algae can't get enough sunlight to continue photosynthesis, and they die, Dodds said. It is especially severe if snow then builds up on the ice. As bacteria decompose the dead algae, they use up oxygen that fish need to breathe.
Shad are especially susceptible to winterkill. Additionally, sport fish like bass and bluegill are more susceptible to winterkill than catfish, carp, and drum, which can tolerate lower oxygen levels, Dodds said. When there is a serious winterkill, the surface of a lake can be covered with dead fish.

Details about the 2018-2019 House League Season
This season will start on Saturday November 3rd and run through Sunday March 3rd.
We typically have over 100 players each year for the past 3 or 4 seasons. We break the 100 players into two groups EAST and WEST. If we have 100 kids registered, we group the kids by their age. The youngest player to the 50th player is grouped together. This may mean that 4 year olds to the 7-year-old 6-month-old player will be grouped together; depending on the age of our 50th player.
The purpose of this is to divide the kids together into two equal groups. We are flexible regarding siblings and offer the parent the option of choosing the group that they want their children to skate in. We try to accommodate the parents.
· The EAST Group will typically skate on Saturdays from 11:00AM to 11:50AM and on Sundays 9:00AM to 9:50AM.
· The WEST Group will typically skate on Saturdays from Noon to 12:50PM and on Sundays from 10:00AM to 10:50AM.
The program begins with the O'Sullivan Hockey Instructors running the program on both Saturday and Sundays until January.
We provide a list of all the players on the EAST GROUP and the WEST GROUP to Stephanie O'Sullivan, director of the O'Sullivan hockey instructors. The O'Sullivan instructors will evaluate all the players and they will grade them "A", "B", or "C" players. The grading information is confidential and given to the House League directors
Depending if we have enough coaches signed up through the Website, we may email the parents of all registered players asking if any of them would be interested in volunteering as coaches. The program succeeds as a result of the parents volunteering their time to help.
After about the third week, the O'Sullivan group will provide us with their evaluations. We begin making the rosters for each team making sure that each team has comparably rated players. The volunteer coaches are then assigned and the rosters for each team are announced (usually the weekend before Christmas).
After the first of the year the O'Sullivan's continue to provide two skill sessions on Saturdays (one for the EAST Group; the other for the WEST Group). Sundays are "game day". We typically have four teams on the EAST GROUP that play from 9AM to 9:50AM and four teams on the WEST GROUP that play from 10AM to 10:50AM. Teams are defined by the color of their jerseys.
There are two cross-ice games that occur at each session and teams are rotated from week to week. Teams usually have three lines. One line is on the ice; one line is sitting on the bumpers (or the bench); one line is having a skill session in the middle of the ice. The coaches control the games and rotate the lines as the game progresses.
The middle ice, as stated, is used to conduct skills for the players. Several of the "extra" coaches, conduct the skill session with the players not playing - waiting to get into the game.
House League will have a bonus hour from 4PM to 4:50PM on Sunday's beginning on January 13th running through to Sunday February 24th. This very popular "bonus hour" is in addition to the Sunday morning session. We rotate the EAST GROUP and the WEST GROUP for this "bonus hour"

Today Protestants around the world give thanks to God for the Reformation, the 16th-century movement which reclaimed the glorious doctrine of salvation by grace through faith in Christ alone from the obscuring veils of Roman traditions. On October 31, 1517, Martin Luther symbolized the heart of the Reformation by posting his 95 Theses in protest at the sale of indulgences by the Church. We summarize the Reformers' convictions with 5 Solas: Sola Scriptura, Sola Fide, Sola Gratia, Solus Christus, and Soli Deo Gloria. All of them are precious, but I'd argue that the greatest of them is the first: Sola Scriptura. I elevate it not because it is inherently more significant than the others, but because it is the source of the others (and thus is referred to as "the formal principle of the Reformation"). If we don't acknowledge the authority and sufficiency of the Word of God, we have no basis to determine the doctrine of salvation—or anything else.
I was struck again by this from an unlikely source a few years ago. Victor Hugo wrote the following historical commentary during one of the (rather frustrating) plot lapses in The Hunchback of Notre Dame:
"The sixteenth century shattered religious unity. Before printing, the Reformation would just have been a schism; printing made it a revolution. Take away the printing press and heresy is enervated [weakened, destroyed]. Be it fate or providence, Gutenberg was Luther's precursor."
What Hugo is highlighting is the importance of the printed word—indeed, of the printed Word! In God's providence, the Reformation took place in a time when thought and religion had been freed by Gutenberg's press. This was no coincidence. An unbending commitment to the Word started, informed, and spread the Protestant Reformation. Luther's main contribution to the Reformation was his commitment to Scripture, stated often, but never more beautifully or boldly than in his defense at the Diet of Worms:
"Unless I am convinced by the testimony of the Scriptures or by clear reason (for I do not trust either in the pope or in councils alone, since it is well known that they have often erred and contradicted themselves), I am bound by the Scriptures I have quoted and my conscience is captive to the Word of God. I cannot and will not recant anything, since it is neither safe nor right to go against conscience. Here I stand. I can do no other. God help me. Amen."
"I am bound by the Scriptures." Yes. "My conscience is captive to the Word of God." Amen. That's the Reformation in a nutshell. Indeed, it's Christianity in a nutshell. Luther and the Reformers didn't get everything right. They couldn't have. But their role was like that of a good teacher—not to teach students every fact they will ever need to know, but to teach them how to learn. The Reformers reminded the church how to learn—how to think—by pointing us to the Scriptures and away from human authorities. That was their genius, built upon the genius of pre-Reformers like Wycliffe and Huss. Sola Scriptura!
There is no question that the great doctrines of the Reformation are under attack again today. Much of evangelicalism is "slouching towards Rome." Our response, as ever, must be to tenaciously hold to the authority of the Scriptures. That's not as simple as it seems, for there is ever the temptation to amend to the Word our own ideas. When the ideas are old, we call them "tradition." When the ideas are new, we call them "contextualization." Regardless of what extra-biblical ideas are called, we must not yield to them. We have a more sure word. We have an inspired Word. We have a sufficient Word. May we truly embrace it as our "only rule of faith and practice" as our creeds require. We can do no other. God help us.

Mod's Edit: Additional information added to Subject line for clarity of issue.
Hello, I recently bought the Lenovo Yoga 510-IKB, and when I would flip the screen, it would automatically rotate the screen.After a bunch of windows 10 updates, this function was gone. I checked regedit, and the SensorPresent was set to 0. And I can't set rotate lock anymore, anywere. I set SensorPresent to 1 manually, but that didn't change anything either. Only yesterday I got an update from Lenovo for the bios, and I am now running V.2SCN26WW. In lenovo companion I cannot find the flip option anymore. Since they used to be in Lenovo Settings. But that app is gone now. In device manager I deleted the HID-sensorcollection v2 so that it could reinstall itself, but it didn't change anything either. Not sure what I am supposed to do now besides returning the laptop to the store.Read other answers

I ordered this laptop a few months ago from Amazon and from the start it had some malfunctions like mouse glitches and speaker glitches while playing sound. I said ok I can live with that. Then progressively it started to get slower, then a few days ago the screen would suddenly turn black, so I would have to force shut down. And restarting has a 30% chance of success, if it doesn't freeze mid start-up.

Maybe both. Can someone please help and advise what to do. Thank you.Read other answers

According the official technical specifications on Lenovo's website, the IdeaPad 520 (15IKB) notebook has two USB 3.0 ports and one type-C port. But on my IP 520, the two USB-A ports don't have the expected blue colour coding for USB 3.0 and also they both don't have the (SuperSpeed) SS-USB symbol. Instead they have the regular USB trident symbol. Only the type-C port has the SS-USB symbol. The Windows Device Manager lists three USB related drivers viz.Intel(R) USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller - 1.0 (Microsoft)USB Composite DeviceUSB Root Hub (USB 3.0) So, the IP 520 really does have two USB 3.0 ports or it's a gimmick?Read other answers

Real Housewives of Miami is kicking things off tonight! Following a supremely lackluster response to the first season, a complete cast overhaul happened to spice things up.
Well, apparently it worked! The ladies are making the rounds to promote the show and they promise it is very, very dramatic and fans will not be disappointed. I'm slightly afraid by that proclamation. I sometimes like boring. I know, I know…
Anyway, season one survivor Lea Black vows this season is a totally new ball game. "I think a lot's different," she told the Today Show. "I think the mix of the new girls has made it hot, spicy, wild, crazy, fun and … a few other things have gone on."
And just what "other things" have gone on? Oh, you know the usual Housewives antics. "More drama than ever," Lea revealed, playing coy. "And it heats up as the season progresses."

The VA did not comment on when it might respond, though Shinseki has vowed to identify the cause of the outbreak and to improve communications with the public, according to Casey's office. He and Shinseki spoke by phone on Wednesday, Casey said.
"What apparently hadn't been done — and I urged him strongly to do this — is to communicate directly and more consistently with veterans and their families to make sure that they know what's happening, what the VA is finding," said Casey, D-Scranton.
He said he, too, grew frustrated "just getting through to people over there" at the VA.
Officials announced the Legionnaires' outbreak on Nov. 16, saying four patients developed the waterborne disease at the University Drive Campus in Oakland. The VA announced a fifth patient case on Nov. 22.
One patient died, according to the Allegheny County Health Department. Four recovered, VA spokesman David Cowgill has said. Officials are determining whether four employees became sick with Legionnaires'.
Cowgill said one case might be linked to the VA's H.J. Heinz Campus near Aspinwall, which remained under water-use restrictions on Thursday. Legionella bacteria were spotted in the tap water there, too, Cowgill said.
The VA lifted water restrictions at the Oakland hospital last week after an extensive cleaning process.
Neither the VA nor the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has said how the outbreak materialized, though the VA reported a water-treatment system in Oakland might not have been as effective as once thought. CDC findings may be released within about a month.
Other elected officials have joined Casey in pressing the VA for explanations. Sen. Pat Toomey, R-Allentown, asked the VA to list steps taken to address the issue and ensure patient safety.
"The men and women who have bravely served our country deserve to know that their health care needs will be met in a safe and secure environment," Toomey wrote in a letter to Shinseki on Wednesday.
U.S. Rep. Mike Doyle, D-Forest Hills, said his staff has been in almost daily contact with the VA since the outbreak became public.
"We're certainly not ready to close the books on this one yet," Doyle said. "We're not ready to pass judgment, either, because we don't have all the facts."
He said critical questions center on the Oakland facility's water treatment set-up, which used a copper-silver ionization technology in place since 1993. Researchers familiar with the system said failures of the technology often stem from poor maintenance or monitoring.
"We need to understand this better and make sure controls were put in place," Doyle said.
