The September issue of Elle Decor goes where many women have gone before: John Mayer's bedroom. What does it look like where the magic happens?
The man who's supposedly dated Vanessa Carlton, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Jessica Simpson, Minka Kelly, Cameron Diaz and Jennifer Aniston called on Giorgio Armani to design his SoHo apartment. "After I finally figured out how to behave, and how to dress, I wanted to get the next thing — my apartment — right," he tells Elle Decor. Mayer wore an Armani suit to the Grammys and it blew his mind or something. "For the first time in my life, I understood what healthy messaging was all about." Armani's translation: Shades of gray.
(Click "full size" to enlarge)
"I make fantastic fajitas after a late night out," Mayer says. "I can rock a skillet." We've heard that both Jen Aniston and Jess Simpson like Mexican food, so maybe they perched at this very counter, watching John whip up some culinary delights?
(Click "full size" to enlarge)
Here's the master bedroom, with what the magazine describes as a "low, shapely Botticelli bed framed in gleaming lacquer and set against walls the color of candlelight." Translation: Zen, with a side of meh. Other than the bed being GIGANTIC, it doesn't really seem like a snare lair. How come the room is not strewn with the underthings of starlets? Where's the "Jessica wuz here" graffiti? In Touch said he keeps a guitar by the bed, for spontaneous serenades! Oh well. At least we know what his sex faces look like.
Seriously, the polka dot guitar is the most exciting thing in his apartment.

Dorothy did have it right--unless a passel of company is descending upon you tomorrow, you've been sick forever, and you're nowhere near ready for them--not even clean sheets on their beds as of right now, and you have a freaking sinus infection that won't quit Then, Sunday, you're supposed to join them at a blissful cottage on the blissful Outer Banks, with your beautiful grandchildren for a week.
Sometimes, one might need to be with the drunk, fat, middle-aged men in Vegas.
But not this week!
Nah....somehow, I'll click my heels together 2 and a half times, and--well, we'll see...
I think...

Of course we missed you and I know you are happy to be home...

Please tell the babies belated Happy Birthday from me!
Mine may be moving into an apartment and I'm not sad.

I did miss you. I believe my last 2 airplane trips involved heinous small children making lots of noise ... and I am sure those obese men also had Bluetooth phones in their ears... every overweight man I saw in Vegas had a Bluetooth in their ear .. I wanted to ask: who, dude, is calling you while you are on vacation so you need a phone stuck in your ear all the time? Seriously?

Not sure how I missed this one but I did. You're sooo right about the middle aged men in Vegas. Yuch.

Hope you had fun anyway!

Whether it's on a massive outdoor stage or at a tiny indoor venue, Colorado has an increasingly large roster of festivals where you can go check out some of the best national touring acts as well as a slew of badass local artists. This year in particular has seen an outstanding number of showcases, with some of the most anticipated still around the corner. If you're thinking about getting more in touch with your local scene, or just want an excuse to go drink beer and listen to music with your friends all day, here are four local festivals that are killing it right now.
Goldrush Music Festival: Over the past four years, this two-day event has grown into one of the most impressive low-key festivals in Denver's DIY scene. Taking over the Larimer Lounge and Meadowlark for two days, this year's Goldrush features a healthy dose of experimental local favorites, like CP-208, Sister Grotto and Thug Entrancer, as well as left-field national acts such as Mount Eerie and clipping. Any gathering like this that puts so much emphasis on provocative music is surely worth checking out. (September 13-14)
Underground Music Showcase: Taking place now through Sunday, the UMS has become a kind of shorthand for the who's-who of the Denver underground. Basically everyone and their mother is playing this festival, taking over the city for the weekend across a spread of bars and venues, and making a generous display of the variety of music this city has to offer. In addition to the local crowd, bigger favorites like The Men, Real Estate, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, and Baths will be playing as well, making for a well-rounded weekend of musical wonderment. (Through Sunday)
Riot Fest: The Denver chapter of this growing punk festival is truly one of the more bizarre showcases to arise in recent years, if the lineup is any indicator. Featuring an array of punk stars like Rise Against and Buzzcocks, alongside weirdos like Die Antwoord and Gogol Bordello, as well as indie favorites The Flaming Lips and The Cure, Riot Fest is getting bigger every year and continues to surprise and confound. (
September 19-21)
Fantasia: If you're at all familiar with Denver's premier DIY space Rhinoceropolis, you may have heard of their weekend-long art installation/local music extravaganza wonderfully titled Fantasia. Whether they're transforming the venue into a cyber-aquarium through the use of digital projections, hosting multimedia performance art pieces, or hosting shows from some of the most exciting artists in Denver's experimental scene, Fantasia is an impressive, profound display from Colorado's finest. Although it was in June, keep an eye out for it next year.

IYHA Board of Directors meeting
Note: These minutes have not been approved. They will be reviewed, corrected as needed, and approved at the next regular Board of Directors Meeting.
March 17, 2005
Members present: Jeanne Falconer, Randy Bortot, Cheryl Mason, Renae Olesen, Brian Johnson, Dan Marcouiller, Pat O'Connor, Chris Tahti.
Guests: Vance Feigel, Dawn Stimmler, Mark Mohar, Al Morelli, Jim Cich, John Donovan.
Meeting was called to order by President Brad DeKanick at 6:35 p.m. in the Mounds View City Hall Conference Room C.
Review of agenda and minutes moved to the end of the meeting.
Thanksgiving Tournament:
Dawn reviewed the history of the tournament. Vance clarified history; he and others started the tournament. Tournament is run by the Association, not by an autonomous committee. Irondale and Mounds View are supposed to split work and profits 50/50. Irondale is not doing its share of the work. There is a meeting coming up later this month to define the duties of each Association – meeting with tournament directors from each Association. Costs have gone up. Need to review how we hold volunteers accountable to do their hours.
IYHA is a 501-3C. Tournament was designed to use up ice hours and to make a profit. This was a replacement for the various fundraisers that we had in the past.
Many thanks to Vance for the history. Thanks to Dawn for the presentation.
Recommendation: This Board to sit down with Mounds View Board to discuss issues. Brian Johnson as Vice President needs to be involved. Difficult to participate in 8:30 a.m. meetings are not appropriate. They need to occur at a time that people can participate in the meetings.
Will have list of what Irondale will do and what Mounds View will do. Will move forward with these outlined responsibilities—making it a 50/50 split of work.
Brian will set a meeting with Dean Klokkner of Mounds View.
Rink Advisory Task Force: Names have been given to Tadd Toumie.
Mounds View: Brad has not yet contacted Mounds View to talk about what they were interested in, in reference to their stated interest in merging.
New Business:
President: Brad DeKanick.
Has contacted Chris, Dan and Cheryl to meet on Tuesday to talk about the ACE Coordinator evaluation. Meeting is pending.
Vice President: Brian Johnson
Will put in application for equipment loaner program—Minnesota Wild, Xcel Energy Center and 10,000 Rinks Foundation. Also asking for families to send equipment to Brian. Wants to get it started. Spread the word. Any good usable stuff, give to Brian. May eventually give responsibility to Equipment Coordinator.
Treasurer: Jeanne Falconer.
Requested that all teams turn things in by 3/31/05. $62,500 in rebates this year—a little high, gave the teams the advantage. Don't expect this next year. Still need to pay mileage and ice for February. We have a $42 credit with Twin Cities District.
Director's Insurance: Policy is good from January 1st through December 31st of every year. Will need a copy of our policy. We are covered. Supposed to be a $15 fee per team. Mounds View and Irondale are back together again.
There is a meeting about Columbia on March 21st.
Received check for $788 from Sports Star Photography. Also will receive checks from Cloquet.
Lake Region: Jeanne Falconer. Sites are going well. We can look for donations that are in the community. Lake Region Hockey is going to work with Ramsey County to get the name off of the contract. Distributed thank you letter to Lake Region—requested IYHA Board members signatures. Working on updating the Irondale account for the Tournament. Right now it is outdated. Lake Region is probably going to approach the two Boards. They may ask that the money be run through them, then they could show there are more fundraisers. Having two treasurers and two signers is a way to support 50/50 division of work. Treasurer and Secretary are supposed to be signers on all IYHA accounts. They will follow through in doing the account signing.
Registration: Pat O'Connor. Working on a different formula for giving monies to teams at start up. Will look at a system of having "non-refundable" warm up money. Working on registration times for the 2005-2006 season. Will have them in different weeks, so people will not miss both registration times (if they are on vacation for a week).
Secretary: Niki Gjere.
Newsletter deadline is April 2nd. Will do the pictures (with okay from Brian). Will choose a different site for meeting for general meeting and elections. Will ask Pete Carlson to present information about Super Rink.
TC District: Tom Welty
Bantams are going to start later next year. There were problems this year because tryouts were not done.
New District Director is getting feet under him. Going to look harder at waivers.
Many thanks to the volunteers for the 12U Tournament: Linda Opperman, Jeff Opperman, Steve Stimmler, Gordy Druvenga, Chris Tahti as volunteers for 12U State Tournament.
TC District donated to donate $1800 ($200) per association for the HEP program.
Next month is the TC Annual meeting—will elect a new President Secretary. Looking hard for a new District Coaching Chief.
Issue with the Bantams—co-op the Association and have 4 A Teams. Other players would be returned to Association to play at B level. District is getting concerned because the A Teams are getting pounded. Tom will work with Boys Coordinator (outgoing and incoming), Bantam coaches, Board members, and parents. If they did that and went down to the 4 Bantam teams, then who would we play? Not sure—Tom is asking for clarification. Thinks it may be VFW Team. For the co-op, it sounds as though the Associations may be linked together—for example Edison, Irondale, Southwest. Those kids would try out, would choose A team. They would negotiate team colors, banner, costs, etc. Needs to have pros and cons for the April meeting. Tom has also asked the Boys High School Hockey coach for feedback.
Redistricting will come up again in the future. It has quieted down somewhat. However it is going to be raised again.
Cindy Lammi is a finalist for the Red Baron hockey mom of the year.
Sunday doing a U10A practice—having fun. 10Bs were having fun! And the Ponies were having fun—stands were full—lots of great fun! That is what it is all about!
Ice Commissioner: Renae Oleson
Talked with Peter Rupert from Mounds View. Has contacted VMIA, Super Rink, they will be giving information about ice soon. Will ask about Edison ice. Will be taking class from MaxSolutions and pay for the updated program.
Initiation Coordinator: Cheryl Mason.
Wrapping up. Will probably pay in to the Association more than we owed. Starting planning for next year—coaches and ice needs. 16 Mite 1s skated in the Little Chippers during the Class A High School 3rd place game.
Girls Coordinator: Chris Tahti
Will be meeting with the coaches to review how the year went.
Boys Coordinator: Dan Marcouiller.
Last month the Coordinators met about Ice. Also, since last meeting the A Squirt coach had given feedback the next day (all coaches had given feedback about how the season went).
Equipment Manager: Randy Bortot.
6 teams have turned in jersey.
ACE Coordinator: John Donovan.
Year end invoices distributed to the Coordinators. Broke down to $53.82 per hour for the hours put in.
Thanks to the Coordinators and the coaches—have done a super job. The coaches have
Additional Business: None.
Motion to adjourn the meeting (NG) (TW), motion carried. Meeting adjourned at 8:50 p.m.
Board of Directors Open Positions
Candidate Information
(When there are more than two candidates, the names are listed in alphabetical order.)
President Candidate:
Jim Cich
My name is Jim Cich. My son, Adam, is a goalie for the A-Squirt team. This is his fourth year as a net-minder after starting as a Mite skater. I grew up in New Brighton, playing a ton of hockey at old Veterans Park (when they used to have a rink) in the days of outdoor Lake Region hockey teams and Junior High School hockey teams at Highview and Johanna. (Did anyone play for Coach Horton at Highview?) I didn't play High School hockey, but I've continued to play in adult leagues. I am in my fifth season of "over 40" hockey at the SuperRink (you can do the math).
I get paid to manage the handicap transport service for the U of M, though I've been known to work for no pay. I have been involved in several special events organizations. My experience began in 1979 when I began organizing Coffman Union auto shows twice a year at the U of M campus. I switched to organizing auto races in 1982, and eventually an auto racing series that held events in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Manitoba and Ontario. I worked with the St. Paul Winter Carnival from 1983 to 1991 and on bicycle events for the American Lung Association. I have managed corporate event sponsorships with Miller Brewing, Amoco Oil, U.S.Tobacco, Meyer Snowplows, Ski-doo, Escort Radar Detectors, Honda, Volkswagen, Chevrolet and did promotions with local print, radio and television media as well as ESPN. I have been president of three different non-profit organizations, though none since I fell in love with Lori.
Youth Hockey is my first volunteer endeavor AAC (after Adam and Carly). I started helping out the Mite teams, then was a Pony team manager. After three years as an IYHA team manager, I am ready to change roles, to "step up" and help the management of the IYHA.
In the past few years I have slowly met different coaches and leaders in Irondale Hockey. My first exposure on the Board was Pat O'Connor in Registration, who, as every manager and coach knows, is tireless in her devotion to have every player and coach's documentation in place. She continues to be a fabulous first impression to the association. In a fall 2003 meeting, Vice-President Jeanne Falconer (now Treasurer) orchestrated a managers introductory meeting that was precision. Jeanne gave a sense that the IYHA was a well-tooled machine. Tom Welty, the District Rep, was one of Adam's first year coaches. His honesty and devotion to Irondale Hockey is unquestionable. I am just getting to know Randy Bortot, but as Equipment Manager, he's automatically a goalie's father's best friend. Brian Johnson, the new Vice-President, has been a pleasure to work with. His relaxing style and straight forward approach is beneficial to the association. Unfortunately, I haven't had the opportunity to get to know Brad or Dan, but I do know that Brad DeKanick has repeatedly taken a prominent role and has been a constant leader for our association. Chris Tahti impressed me early last fall with his comments on the girls program in the IYHA newsletter. Since then he has taken the time for in depth and thoughtful responses to my questions and suggestions to the Board. Chris is very eloquent and a great asset to the association. We need him to continue as Girls Coordinator. Niki Gjere is the glue that holds the IYHA Board together. If it wasn't for her fine efforts and pleasant assistance, we wouldn't know a ding-dang thing. Her newsletters are the voice of the IYHA and the only thing that makes "www.IYHA league.org" a web-site. I hope she will continue to be our 'voice' as Secretary for another two years - at least. I have not met the new Initiation Coordinator, Cheryl Mason, or the new Ice Commissioner, Renae Olesen, but I look forward to getting to know them as well. Sound like a great team??? Yah it does! I hope to be a part of that team.
I know what it's like to be on a volunteer Board. It can be immensely frustrating and time consuming. You can get stuck with not enough help and plenty of advice. Sometimes you have to wear too many caps and do whatever it takes to get the job done. You may go into it thinking that you could be a 'lifer', a leader for years to come, but it can eventually wear on you and burn you out. Or life's demands may change. You may hold your position only because no-one else would, and you had too much devotion to the association to let it go vacant. Always, always appreciate those willing to "step up".
I am running for Irondale Youth Hockey Association President. For at least the next two years, I am ready to put the time and devotion to working with the others on the Board. There are specific things I wish to work on. . first and foremost being ice contracts, but just as important is our image to the hockey world and our image within our association. I fondly recall the 2003-2004 season being one that Irondale was above many associations in a lot of ways. The year was organized, had early and plentiful ice and was enjoyable. This is a non-profit membership driven organization, one that is having a tougher year than the one before. We need to increase communications and knowledge to our parents and involve the parents in the actions and activities of the Board. We need to invite input and comments. If we create an informed and involved membership, we will create an atmosphere that invites and welcomes their support now and assistance and leadership in the future, and keep them in our association long term. We need to continue our effective recruitment methods. We must create a respectful image of Irondale Youth Hockey through promotional publications, professional banners, the appearance of our team on the ice, identifiable coaches and managers, and to finally develop our web-site.
IYHA President would be my only role. It is best to wear just one cap. I will drop all team duties in hockey and baseball. I know I can be a positive force to help get the IYHA back on track and moving towards a bright future. It is all about the players. Our children. I am ready to "step up".
Thanks, Jim Cich email: "

Secretary Candidate:
Niki Gjere
My name is Niki Gjere. I am the current Secretary of IYHA. My husband, Greg, and I have 2 children in IYHA. Jimmy will be a 1st year Bantam next year, and Megan will be a 12U next year. We have really enjoyed our experiences with IYHA, and count many friends among the parents of the kids in the Association.
Neither of us played hockey in our youth, and the Secretary role is one way our family can give back to the Association.
Thank you for your support over these past 4 years. I hope to serve the members in the next 2.
Boys Program Coordinator Candidates:
Gary Dahle
My name is Gary Dahle, and I have one boy in the Irondale Hockey Association, currently playing Pee-wees. I've coached at the Mite, Pony, Squirt, and Peewee levels, and have worked with both skilled players and those new to the game. I have thoroughly enjoyed my affiliation with Irondale hockey over the years, and appreciate the countless hours that others have donated to the Irondale Hockey Association to make it happen. Many thanks to Dan Marcouiller for doing a splendid job as boys coordinator over the last few years.
I played high school hockey for Irondale in the early 1970s, graduating in 1975. I also played one year of Junior B hockey after high school, before a foot injury interrupted my hockey career. However, I've been playing in the over-40 men's league at the National Sports Center since it opened, and have derived great joy from being a player again.
One thing I would like to see developed for the Irondale Hockey Association boys program is more out of season hockey training opportunities, both on the ice and off the ice, for those who have the time, the inclination, and the interest. As I see it, these training opportunities would be hosted by outside providers, with information on such opportunities provided to members by the association, and with registration for interested parties coordinated through the association in order to receive special pricing.
By profession, I'm an attorney in private practice located in Mounds View. For those who may need to meet with me to discuss Irondale Hockey Association matters, my office is located right on Highway 10.
Gary Dahle; Office 763-780-8390; Cell 612-801-7099; Home 651-636-4066; www.dahlelaw.com
Mark Mohar
My name is Mark Mohar and I would like to be considered for Boy's Program Coordinator. I have been a member of Irondale Youth Hockey since 1989, first as a player and the past five seasons as a coach. Volunteering as a coach while studying for a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering has given me the opportunity to give back my skills and knowledge to the Irondale hockey community. I am a USA Hockey Level 4 coach and have also attended the hockey coaching class at the University of Minnesota. We need to bring ideas discussed in those coaching classes into our program so our teams and individual players to play to their highest potential.
As Boy's Program Coordinator, I would continue to do the things that are working in our association. However, our association's teams have gone from winning 2-4 games in District 2 to winning the same number in District TC. Skills need to be addressed. We need to have all of our coaches on the same page, teaching the same skills and can do this by coach's meetings and seminars. On the player's side we need to have specific clinics tailored to developing the skills necessary to play hockey at each level. Success comes with hard work and if we develop this attitude in our program, hockey will a great life lesson for each player who laces up their skates.
Girls Program Coordinator Candidate:
Chris Tahti
Chris has two daughters who play hockey – one on the high school JV team and one on the IYHA U10A team. Chris is among the initial athletes inducted into the Mounds View High School Athletic Hall of Fame last year and was a two-sport Division I athlete at the University of Minnesota. After graduation, he was a head coach and administrator of one of the state's more successful amateur sports teams.
Chris volunteered to fill the remaining portion of our last Girls Coordinator's term last season and has spent the year building consensus among the coaching staff, motivating and communicating with the parents and has begun to focus on recruitment of new athletes. Chris has developed a working relationship with other hockey associations, the high school coaches and booster club and District officials.
Chris has worked in Management at the state level and is part of the Command Staff of the New Brighton Department of Public Safety.

Welcome to the Tesla Openpilot Wiki!
We're just getting started filling this out, so feel free to jump in and help document things that need to be here.
This port is currently focused on bringing Openpilot to Teslas from 2014 and earlier, before Autopilot was offered.
Hardware Costs / Functionality / Limitations
|Limitations / Notes
|EON (or FrEON)
|$500 -> Comma AI (or build your own FrEON)
|Vision for Lane Keeping, Visual Radar, ACC, ALC
|Manual Braking -> Only automatic braking available is regenerative braking which is not sufficient.
|White Panda
|$84 -> Comma AI
|WIFI and Can Bus, Grey also works
|Visual Radar is not accurate -> ALC is blind!
|$125 + shipping -> @appleguru
|CAN Bus - Steering, Cruise Control
|Manual Acceleration below 18MPH -> Acceleration is only possible when cruise control is active
|EPAS Cable
|$100 -> Digikey or Mouser
|You must make your own cable - refer to info on this wiki page
|Limitations / Notes
|Comma Pedal
|?? -> @chase or @wocsor
|Accelerator Pedal Proxy - Allows automatic acceleration from 0 MPH
|Comma does not sell these, they are only available as partial kits from community members or as Fab your own PCB designs on Comma's github
|Ultrasonic Parking Sensors + Wiring
|$180? -> AliExpress
|Assist in ALC, possibly also with blindspot detection and maybe eventually auto-park
|Requires Root to install
|Radar retrofit
|$500? -> Ebay or Purchase from Tesla Parts Dept
|In dev - Allow for more accurate ACC
|Requires Root for Tesla IC radar display (will still work with EON)
|iBooster2 retrofit
|Allow car to brake to a stop through automation
|Requires Root to install
These are approximate costs of parts and materials only, it is assumed you will do your own labor.
Status of Latitudinal control (steering)
OpenPilot latitudinal control is working.
Electronic steering is present in pre-autopilot Teslas, but disabled. The Electric Power Assisted Steering units (EPAS) are capable of turning the steering wheel electronically if fed the right commands. With that in mind, we run a cable from the car's EPAS unit in the frunk to a comma.ai Panda. It allows us to:
- Intercept messages the car periodically sends that disable the EPAS' steering feature.
- Transmit steering commands from a comma.ai EON to the EPAS unit.
This setup allows the car to steer autonomously.
What about warranty or car service?
Is it legal to modify your Tesla?
As long as you own the vehicle (not leasing), you can do whatever you like to it as it is your property.
Do I need to remove the Panda/Giraffe/EPAS cable when the car goes in for service?
Nope. Tesla uses an ethernet based diagnostics port rather than the obd2 that the giraffe plugs into.
Does it void your warranty?
Under Magnuson-Moss a dealer must prove that modifications lead to the specific failure that is claimed against the warranty.
I.e. if a door handle stops working, you would still be covered for that; if you upgrade your brakes to ibooster2 and your brakes have an issue, you may not be covered.
Status of Longitudinal control (accelerator and brakes)
Longitudinal control is an ongoing effort. These cars lack electronic pedal control and radar.
As of 2019 we have both software-only and hardware-based Adaptive Cruise Control.
|Distance detection technique
|Use the EON's computer vision
|Install a radar unit
|Under development
|Speed control technique
|Brake power
|Min speed
|Hijack normal cruise control commands
|Weak (regen only)
|Install a comma.ai Pedal proxy
|Weak (regen only)
|Some assembly required.
|Install electrically controllable pedals
|Very difficult installation.
|Not implemented
Adaptive Cruise Control
ACC allows the car to match speed with cars in front of you. The EON judges distances using the camera and dynamically adjusts cruise control speed. There are plenty of downsides to this strategy. The distance estimates are inaccurate. It only operates above 18 mph. The speed changes are not very smooth. And it can't handle sudden slowdowns so YOU MUST BE READY TO MANUALLY BRAKE AT ANY MOMENT. But it works without any new radar/pedal hardware.
To repeat, YOU MUST BE READY TO MANUALLY BRAKE AT ANY MOMENT!
Follow these steps to use ACC:
- Press the cruise stalk IN so that the orange "cruise control ready" LED on the stalk is lit.
- Enable the ACC option on screen if necessary.
- Accelerate above 18 MPH.
- Enable OpenPilot using a DOUBLE stalk pull (pull the cruise control stalk BACKWARDS TWICE in quick succession.) You will see the blue 'Cruise' icon appear on your dash. ACC is now active.
- The initial max speed may be conservative. Press UP on the stalk to increase it.
- Cruise is disabled if you brake or the car slows below 18 MPH.
- If ACC "AUTO" mode is enabled, manually accelerate above 18 MPH to resume.
Controls while ACC is enabled:
|Cruise stalk IN
|Master toggle for cruise control. Must be engaged for cruise or ACC to work.
|Cruise stalk DOUBLE PULL
|Enable OP ACC and steering, and increase the max allowed ACC speed if necessary.
|On screen ACC button
|Toggle between "FOLLOW" and "AUTO" mode. FOLLOW mode attempts to match speed with cars in front of you and disengages if you steer or brake. AUTO mode does the same, but automatically re-engages when you accelerate again.
|Cruise stalk UP
|Increase cruise speed, increasing max allowed ACC speed if necessary.
|Cruise stalk DOWN
|Decrease cruise speed and max allowed ACC speed.
|Cruise stalk PUSH
|Disable OpenPilot (both steering and ACC). Max allowed ACC speed is reset to 0.
|Brake pedal
|Pause both ACC and traditional cruise.
|(When in AUTO mode) Accel over 18 MPH to unpause ACC.
Community ToDo List
- Need a writeup of creating the wiring harness for EPAS bypass
- Need a writeup of installing the wiring harness
- Need to compare comma code with ours, regarding continue.sh / launch_openpilo.sh / launch_chffr.sh so that on reboot it fetches our repo (auto update). Not all users want to ssh in to update
- Open source giraffe hardware
- Code change to OP port to auto flash panda
- Add longitudinal control (this is a much larger issue than 1 bullet point)
- Further testing of EPAS enable spamming
- Have more Teslas using OP than any other car!!! :)

Here's what you'll need to get OpenPilot working on your pre-AP Tesla
- Panda (white $84, grey $199)
- Grey Panda includes high accuracy GPS which OpenPilot may use for more accurate steering in the future.
- 10 foot mini USB cable ($7 for this example cable)
- Custom Giraffe and Wiring harness for the Model S.
- There are 2 variations of the giraffe based on your car manufacture date. If you are unsure, check if the OBD connector in your driver footwell. If it has pins 1 and 9 like this then you need the giraffe with "Standard OBD Connector (Model S built after (May 31, 2013). For cars built before May 31, 2013, you need a giraffe with "TDC Connector". Your OBD port will be missing pins 1 and 9 and look like this.
- Contact @appleguru in the #tesla channel on the comma Discord to purchase a revB giraffe (Or just fill out the order form (here) )
Total price of parts is approximately $1,000.
Instructions to set it all up
This first video walks you through the physical installation of parts from start to finish.
- Make sure your Eon is up to date This will bring you to the latest version of OpenPilot and update your EON to the latest version of NEOS. If you have problems they aren't Tesla related, check the other wiki / slack places.
- Install the wiring harness to the EPAS unit and the OBDII port in the driver footwell
- Run the wire from the EPAS, through the frunk, to the Panda in the footwell.
- Install Panda on Giraffe OBDII port (driver footwell)
- Run the 10 foot USB cable from the EON along your headliner, down the driver side A-Pillar, and down to the Panda
- Connect EON to Panda via USB cable
- Follow the instructions on this page to SSH into your EON This is also a good guide to connecting via SSH
- Install custom tesla branch of OpenPilot on your EON by doing the following:
cd /data mv openpilot openpilot.stock git clone https://github.com/jeankalud/openpilot.git cd openpilot git checkout tesla reboot
- Update your Panda while SSH'ed in and Panda connected to ODB port and EON connected to Panda via USB (perhaps) - automated soon - Do we need to do this without data on bus?
cd /data/openpilot/panda/board make make recover
- This is what it should look like for a successful flash. If you get something very different that has an error, check the connectivity between the EON and the Panda. Unplug it all and re-seat all the connections on Panda and giraffe.
root@localhost:/data/openpilot/panda/board$ cd /data/openpilot/panda/board;make PYTHONPATH=../ python -c "from python import Panda; Panda().flash('obj/panda.bin')" opening device 41001d000651363038363036 0xddcc connected opening device 41001d000651363038363036 0xddee connected flash: version is v1.1.2-unknown-DEBUG flash: unlocking flash: erasing flash: flashing flash: resetting opening device 41001d000651363038363036 0xddcc connected root@localhost:/data/openpilot/panda/board$
- If you're having trouble with the Panda not flashing correctly, here's a few things to try:
Power cycle the Panda by unplugging it from the giraffe and reseating it again. Run these commands on the EON to try and flash the Panda: cd /data/openpilot/panda/board killall boardd make clean make make recover
- Once Panda is successfully flashed, you need to reboot EON again (WHILE the EON is connected to panda via USB).
- Once everything is set up and working, you'll need to drive for 20-30 minutes above 45mph to complete calibration.
- Once you're done with calibration, OP can be activated by one pull of the cruise stalk toward you. This is independent of whether the Tesla cruise control is turned on or not.
Installation Tips
EPAS Cable
- You can follow Deftdawg's EPAS creation video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TIKGK0Iabtc
- NOTE: It is not recommended to solder the JST2 plugs prior to fishing the wire into the driver footwell, so pause watching this video around the 34minute mark. The fishing process can easily destroy JST2 solder joints, so it's better to fish the wire first and then strip and solder the connections on when the wire is already into the cabin.
- Use velcro ties to secure the EPAS Cable to the existing harness in the car until you are sure everything works and you won't be needing to remove EPAS cable to work on it further.
- Fish the unfinished end of the cable under the washer container, then through the first hood metal support piece to the gap and then pull all of the slack through that gap. Reinsert the unfinished end back into the gap while keeping a finger or screw driver under it to keep the cable from falling down flat into the gap, this will help the cable not catch on where the second metal hood support meets the body as you push the cable towards the cabin. Once the cable emerges next to the door seal, pull it through from the cabin side and work it in behind the seal and the diagnostics port.
- Once the cable is in the gap between the driver left side footwell cover and the panel containing the OBD2 port, do your soldering of the JST2 connector.
- Prior to connecting the cabling, it's a good idea to test your EPAS cable for continuity and shorts [this is for your sanity, nothing bad will happen if you skip this]
- Shorts: with the EPAS cable not plugged into the Car or the giraffe, put spare pins into 2 and 5 and touch your leads to them. If you get continuity make sure that the pins are not in contact, if they are not in contact double check the insulation on your solder connections to your JST2 plug.
- Continuity: with the spare pins still inserted in 2 and 5, jumper the JST2 plug end. Touch your leads to the 2 and 5 pins, if you get continuity make sure that the pins are not in contact, if they are not, then the cable is good. If you get no continuity, check that your solder connections to the JST2 plug haven't been broken.
- Plug your panda into your giraffe, plug your giraffe into your OBD2 plug... The car may give you some error messages about parking brake, etc... Connect your EON to the panda via the USB cable. Turn on tethering in the EON and connect to the EON hotspot, then ssh to 192.168.43.1 port 8022 using the OpenPilot RSA key and flash your panda. Once flashing is complete, you can disconnect your EON again, remove and reinsert your giraffe, hopefully the car should not complain (if it does let us know, but continue anyway).
- With a good cable, you can remove any testing jumpers and spare pins and connect to to the EPAS servo unit and connect it to the giraffe. Again the car should not complain. If you get an error that "Power Assist is not available", it means that your CAN +/- pins (2 and 5) need to be flipped. You test this by cross wiring a JST2 connector to a JST2 plug and then inserting that between your JST2 connector and EPAS cable... If you do this, you may need to put the car in drive and manually feel if power steering works before the error clears (if steering is normal the error should clear, if not it will feel very heavy). The easiest way to resolve this is to disconnect the JST2 cable from the giraffe and use a small edge to lift the plastic lock tab while depressing the spring clip to release the JST2 connects and then insert black in the red position and vice-versa, the plug the JST2 cable back into the giraffe, put the car in drive and recheck the steering.
Tucking the USB and Grey panda antenna cable into the Headliner
- Pull your USB and GPS antenna cables from the footwell gap where the OBD2 port is up to where the "A" pillar is...
- Follow the instructions to remove the air bag cover from the "A" pillar
- Pull the USB and GPS antenna cables up the height of the "A" pillar across the the mirror holding them close to the headliner. Adjust the length and to reach where you will place your panda and your EON. The GPS receiver can be placed under the mirror Frit, it won't effect performance (the pattern is only to prevent glare on the mirror).
- Drape the receiver and USB plug ends over the rear view mirror.
- Move to the corner where the headliner and the removed airbag panel intersect, this corner is the easiest place to stick a pry tool... Using your pry tool lift the corner and move the pry-tool along the top of the windshield tucking the two wires into the headliner as you go. When you reach the mirror base, this can be lifted slightly route the GPS into the headliner crossing in between headliner and mirror base, while the EON USB cable can be routed down the front of the windshield to emerge at the bottom of the mirror base closer to the centre of the windshield.
- Once the cabling is tucked in the headliner, move back to the "A" pillar and tuck the cable into the pillar cover routing it down towards the door seal, then secure the pillar cover to conceal the wiring.
First Troubleshooting steps:
- If you're getting power steering errors after flashing panda, make sure you reboot EON while it's connected to Panda via USB
- Try a different USB cable (a shorter one, or one with EMI filter)
- Ensure that the mini USB cable is fully seated in the EON. Trim of about 2 mm of plastic on the front of the connector plug if the USB in the EON housing seems to have been pushed in.
- Make sure you're using the correct tesla repo
- run make in /data/openpilot/panda/board
- make sure CAN-H and CAN-L are not reversed.
- make sure there is a 120 ohms resistor across CAN-H and CAN-L going to the EPAS (power steering)
- if using a custom harness ensure these:
- car CAN on panda port 1 (first port)
- EPAS CAN on last on port 3 (last one)
- If everything looks correct (right code, right wiring, right everything), you can always try: Shutdown car ("Power Off" in car settings), wait a few sec and try again.
- If you've broken your source control (wrong git command, etc) you can always backup/check out from scratch:
cd /data mv openpilot openpilot.bak git clone https://github.com/jeankalud/openpilot cd openpilot git checkout tesla cd panda/board make clean sleep 5 # (Skip this if running commands individually.) make make recover reboot
- If you are getting a message about having to recalibrate or re-position the EON, do this:
rm /data/params/d/CalibrationParams reboot
How to change to the development branch of the Tesla OP port
Here's the commands to run on your EON to switch to the tesla_devel branch of the code
cd /data/openpilot git fetch git checkout tesla_devel cd /data/openpilot/panda/board make reboot
How to transfer files to your EON
Sometimes while testing or debugging issues you may want to manually transfer files to your EON. One easy way to do this is to use the popular FTP client Filezilla.
- Enable SSH. Click on "Settings" in OpenPilot and make sure the "Enable SSH" option is turned on.
- Next find the ip address of your EON. Under Settings > Wifi settings > Advanced (click on the 3 dots in the upper right hand corner) scroll all the way to the bottom to find IP. (Make sure your EON is on the same wifi as your computer)
- Create a file called openpilot.ppk and save the text at the bottom of this section in it.
- In Filezilla, go to your Site Manager and create a new entry for your EON and enter the IP address you found in the Host field. The port is 8022. The protocol should be SFTP. Logon Type will be "Key File". User is "root". Key file is the file you just created. Then hit connect.
If you're having issues connecting, check to make sure you can ping your device on the IP you found. If ping doesn't work, then SSH won't either. You can try turning wifi off and then on again if you can't connect.
All the settings listed above can be used to connect via PuTTY as well for command line access. You specify the keyfile in the settings under Connection -> SSH -> Auth -> Private key for authentication

Editing your Bash Profile
In order to edit the .bash_profile on the EON, first you have to move your the home directory by typing
Then, you have to mount the file system in Read/Write mode by typing
mount -o rw,remount /system
At this point you can edit your .bash_profile file by typing
vi .bash_profile
First, locate the PYTHONPATH line and delete it. Then, at the end of your file, paste the following code
# add these symlinks if you want export PYTHONPATH="/data/openpilot" export GIT_SSH_COMMAND="ssh -i /data/gitkey" cd /data/openpilot/selfdrive/car/tesla
alias cdo='cd /data/openpilot' alias cdt='cd /data/openpilot/selfdrive/car/tesla' alias cdp='cd /data/openpilot/panda/board' alias sop='grep -rni --include=\*.{py,h,c} /data/openpilot/ -e ' alias mrw='mount -o rw,remount /system' alias dbp='python /data/openpilot/panda/tests/debug_console.py | grep -v "can_push failed"' alias vic='vi /data/openpilot/selfdrive/car/tesla/carcontroller.py' alias vii='vi /data/openpilot/selfdrive/car/tesla/interface.py' alias vit='vi /data/openpilot/selfdrive/car/tesla/teslacan.py' alias vis='vi /data/openpilot/selfdrive/car/tesla/carstate.py' alias viu='vi /data/openpilot/selfdrive/ui/ui.c' alias lop='cd /data/openpilot;./launch_openpilot.sh' alias gp='git commit; git push' alias sp='/data/data/com.termux/files/continue.sh'
Save the profile and you're done! If you contribute code, you might also at this point want to configure your git to save your username and password. To do that you just to a push when you still have the file system in RW mode ( or you can use the *mrw* command later to make it RW)
$ git config credential.helper store $ git push https://github.com/repo.git Username: <type your username> Password: <type your password>
$ git push https://github.com/repo.git [your credentials are used automatically]
Keep in mind the credentials are stored in
in plain text. They are in the format
where *firstname.lastname@example.com* is your username and *pass* is your password. So you can also just edit that file and modify as needed. Just replace *@* with *%40* in your email address. Now, about those shortcuts above:
mrw - make read / write - makes the file system writeable sop - search OpenPilot - searches the whole OP structure for the keyword that follows - example: sop user_brake sp - starts OpenPilot after you killed it with tmux -a dbp - debug panda - launches the debugger for panda gp - git commit and push - if you saved your credentials this makes commit and push so easy; just add your comment and you're done cdt - change directory to /data/openpilot/selfdrive/car/tesla folder; this is also the folder when you will now start every time you ssh into your EON cdo - change directory to /data/openpilot cdp - change directory to /data/openpilot/panda/board vic - starts vi for /data/openpilot/selfdrive/car/tesla/carcontroller.py from any folder vii - starts vi for /data/openpilot/selfdrive/car/tesla/interface.py from any folder vis - starts vi for /data/openpilot/selfdrive/car/tesla/carstate.py from any folder vit - starts vi for /data/openpilot/selfdrive/car/tesla/teslacan.py from any folder```
Script to auto delete files to keep EON from filling up
This script comes courtesy of @Sid and updated for OP0.5 by @Tentious
Save the following script and run it on your EON. It will install into a cron job a script that checks every hour to see if you're almost full and delete the oldest files if necessary.
Aligning your EON
What you need
- Measuring tape
- Masking tape
- A friend to help
- Find a place at the bottom of the windshiled along the driver side pilar that has a similar position on the passenger side (I used the place where the corner of the front hood meets the fender).
- With the tape starting from that point, mark 3 places along the side of the windshiled. Use the endge of the masking tape to mark them. I personally used 3" from the bottom, the top of the windshield and then about 1/3 from the bottom, 2/3 from the top. It does not matter what the measuring tape says, as long as it says the SAME distance on both sides.
- Repeat the process on the other side of the windshiled, ensuring you mark the same spots.
- measure the distance between one edge of the windshield and the other end, keeping the tape at each pair of marked points from before. use masking tape to mark the middle of the windshield. again, use the EDGE of the tape, not the center.
- Now use a long piece of masking tape to mark the center of the windshield from top to bottom. This (if you did everything correctly) will cover all 3 of your markers from before and provide a straight line. One edge of the masking tape is now the perfect middle of the windshild. Your mount will have to be aligned with that for a perfect position.
- Take a small piece of tape and mark the middle of the GoPro mount. use a slighly longer piece that the go-pro (maybe 1/4-1/2" more on each side) and ensure it is straight and down the middle of the GoPro. If, when looking from inside of the car, your take is to the RIGHT of the center, then put the tape on the LEFT side of the GoPro. Reverse if the other way.
- Using your EON without the mounting braket, determine the location along the center of the windshield where you want it placed.make sure the grove on the support is alongside the center of the windshield. use a small piece of maksing tape to mark the upper part of the position where you want your EON to be.
- Remove the RED protective tape from the back of the 3M adhesive and be ready to place the GoPro on the windshiled. Align the masking tape we placed on the GoPro mount on the inside with the masking tape we have on the outside of the windshield. They shoud not overlap at all AND you should not see light either. when you are confident on the position press hard on the mount.
- Remove all masking tape. You are done. You now have a perfectly centerd, perfectly vertical EON.

Last known safe Tesla software update version: 2018.46.2
- ABS/iBooster/ESP2
- AntiLock Braking System, iBooster - a component that allows brakes to applied via electronic control, Electronic Stability Program. These are parts of the automatic braking system that are found on AP1 and later cars. Using EON to control brakes is not feasibly possible on pre-AP Teslas. There has been some talk of upgrading AP0 Teslas to have this hardware, but this is a major undertaking and requires root access.
- Tesla AutoPilot. AP0 or pre-AP means no AutoPilot. AP1 is the version 1 using Mobileye technology. AP2 ditched the Mobileye components and is all Tesla parts and software. AP2.5 is upgraded AP2 hardware.
- cabana
- Comma's system for playing back and showing the recorded data from uploaded drives.
- CAN,CAN-bus
- Controller Area Network This is a network system inside cars that allow messages to be sent to different auto components. With the Giraffe/Panda/EON setup described above, the Panda's CAN bus 0 is for chassis messages and CAN bus 2 is for the isolated EPAS. The Panda proxies messages between the two (except for the EPAS kill message which is blocked.)
- Chassis Can
- Steering and braking controls are found on this CAN-bus, so this is the main one that OP uses.
- Center Information Display. Same thing as the MCU, ie, the big screen in the Tesla.
- Driver assistance system - the AP1 camera/computer module located behind the windshield on AP1 hardware cars
- DataBase Container These are files that contain the definitions of the messages cars send on the CAN-bus.
- Diag, Diag port
- Diagnostic port that can be found under the MCU (screen) in a Tesla. Chassis-CAN is able to be accessed from this port.
- Double Pole Double Throw. It's a type of switch that some use in their wiring harness.
- Main hardware component that Comma sells. It's the brains that runs OpenPilot.
- Electronic Power (Assisted) Steering. This component allows OP to move the steering wheel.
- flash
- Process of installing software on embedded hardware.
- Giraffe
- Piece of hardware that allows the Panda to interface with the OBD port in the car.
- Instrument Cluster. The screen behind the steering wheel that has the speedometer on a Tesla.
- Lane Keeping Assist System. System built into cars to automatically steer to keep the car in the current lane.
- Media Control Unit - The big screen in a Tesla.
- Mid Range Radar. Modern cars use radar units to see objects around the car. Pre-AP Teslas don't have any radar units.
- Model S, Model X, Model 3. The current Tesla lineup.
- The predecessor to the EON. A customized OnePlus3 phone with a custom hardware board attached that also can run OpenPilot.
- The operating system softare that runs on the EON.
- OBD, OBDii, OBDII, OBD2
- OnBoard Diagnostics This is a port in the driver footwell that would normally provide emissions diagnostics on most cars, but is useless for that on Teslas. For Teslas built after May 31, 2013, Chassis CAN-bus is able to be accessed from this port.
- OpenPilot
- Panda
- Piece of Comma hardware that plugs into the OBD port to access the Chassis CAN-bus to send steering and braking messages from OpenPilot running on the EON.
- Printed Circuit Board
- Powertrain Control Module. This component basically tells the car how much power to put out to make the car go.
- PR, pull request, merge
- Pull requests or merge refers to a request to integrate code written by others to be "pulled" into the OpenPilot software maintained by Comma.
- Repo, git repo
- Repository where software is stored. The code for the Tesla version of OpenPilot currently sits in a different repo than the main OpenPilot code.
- root, root access
- Process of gaining access into the Tesla sofware system at a root level that allows access internal diagnostic not normally available and also allows for changes to be made to the Tesla software.
- Steering Column Control Module - This component is part of the steering column and controls all the messages sent from the buttons on the steering wheel as well as the cruise control stalk.
- State Of Charge. The percent of power left in your car's battery pack.
- Secure SHell - a method of connecting to your EON in order to be able to make changes to it and issue commands for it to run.

"You are not supposed to get it right out of the gate. My favourite people in the world, my dearest friends, all rattle when you give them a shake. They have little pieces that have broken off inside of them that are a constant reminder to them, and me, of how far they've come and how much they've learned and what they have survived."
Canadian singer/songwriter Jann Arden has written a heartfelt book about walking along side her mother through Alzheimer's. It was surprisingly good and I appreciated her honesty and wisdom as she shares this diary-style journey of caring for both of her parents in their twilight years. Although I've listened to Jann Arden's music, and even met her once in Tanzania, I didn't know much about her and didn't expect to find her writing so inspirational. I ended up jotting down a lot of quotes and really appreciating her perspective. A quote that will stick with me: "My Mom says tears are God's lubricant to get you through the tight spots." And I always love books with easy tasty recipes! Jann says, "There is something about feeding people you care about that is extremely comforting for both of you."
From the publisher: "When beloved singer and songwriter Jann Arden's parents built a house just across the way from her, she thought they would be her refuge from the demands of her career. And for a time that was how it worked. But then her dad fell ill and died, and just days after his funeral, her mom was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. In Feeding My Mother, Jann shares what it is like for a daughter to become her mother's caregiver–in her own frank and funny words, and in recipes she invented to tempt her mom. Full of heartbreak, but also full of love and wonder."

No shock that "Hugo" and "The Artist" dominated this year's Oscar nominations (for a full list, go here. I even wouldn't have been surprised if the dog from "The Artist" had scored a nom. But there were quite a few pleasant surprises and head-scratchers Tuesday morning. A rundown:
"Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close" for Best Picture: The subject matter (Sept. 11) has an unproven movie track record and the reviews ranged from OK to downright awful, but the late-entry drama somehow managed to be among the nine films vying for top honors. Which makes what I have to say next a bit painful.
"Bridesmaids" fails to land Best Picture spot: It was never a sure thing, but the acclaimed hit comedy has racked up several surprise Best Picture noms in a slew of pre-Oscar award shows. One may take solace in that it likely missed out by a few votes — and that Melissa McCarthy (Supporting Actress) and Kristen Wiig/Annie Mumolo (Original Screenplay) scored nods.
Rooney Mara: While the pitch-dark "Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" didn't score for Best Picture or Best Director (David Fincher), relative newcomer Mara pulled off a Best Actress nod in an extremely competitive category this year.
Best Actor race shake-up: Gary Oldman ("Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy") was a slight surprise, but the real shock was the inclusion of Mexican actor Demian Bichir for the little-seen "A Better Life."
Woody Allen: "Midnight in Paris" was always seen as a contender in both the Best Picture and Original Screenplay races, but this is Allen's first directing nomination since 1995.
Michael Fassbender: The Academy officially does not condone sex addiction — or perhaps full-frontal nudity. Previously thought to be a Best Actor shoo-in for "Shame," Fassbender will have to feel content with the fact that he has something like 152 movies in the works.
Ryan Gosling: A trio of well-received roles ("Crazy, Stupid, Love," "The Ides of March," and "Drive") equaled zero noms for Gosling, who, it should be noted, probably doesn't care and is likely off somewhere wearing a really cool leather jacket.
Shailene Woodley: Woodley has been universally touted as a sure-thing Best Supporting Actress contender for "The Descendants." Voters, apparently, really, really hated that last "The Secret Life of the American Teenager" plot twist.
Pixar: Lesson learned: Even if you're an animation god, if you make a crappy movie like "Cars 2," you wont be recognized for it. And films no one has ever heard of — "Chico & Rita" and "A Cat in Paris" — will be nominated instead.
Avada Kedavra: It hurts when the "Harry Potter" swan song, one of the most acclaimed films of the year, scores just three minor noms — makeup, art direction and visual effects.
It'll take a while, but I'm sure I'll eventually get used to seeing the words "Oscar nominee" before "Moneyball" Supporting Actor nom Jonah Hill's name.
While "Project Nim" and "Buck" somehow failed to get Documentary nominations, "Paradise Lost 3: Purgatory" is now the deserved front-runner.
Flight of the Conchords' Bret McKenzie is now an Oscar nominee for the song "Man or Muppet," from "The Muppets." Which means a 95 percent chance of Kermit the Frog and co. on stage.
A reminder, for the record: "Transformers: Dark of the Moon": two nominations. Fassbender and Gosling: none.
With Mara's nomination, the likelihood of seeing host Billy Crystal with gauges and bleached eyebrows just got stronger.

NASPCC recommends informed decision-making on prostate cancer testing and supports the early detection of potentially lethal prostate cancer. NASPCC supports 2014 Early Detection Guidelines published by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) that suggest baseline PSA testing of men beginning in their 40's, complemented by a DRE. Testing at earlier ages is specifically important for men in higher risk categories, such as African-American men and men with a family history of prostate cancer. Subsequent testing depends on testing history and should be determined in collaboration with a physician.

Ben Knighten
December 11, 2019
Live Music at 6-9pm Cost-Free
We just discovered Ben Knighten, a folk singer-songwriter from Colorado. We're proud to have him here at Bitto for a solo acoustic show. His music has been described as "an intoxicating blend of intelligent songwriting, artful arranging, beautiful singing and graceful musicianship" and "a brilliant tour-de-force of folk's emotional power." He recently released his third full-length album entitled "Light the Way" and has played at many different venues across Colorado. He was also nominated for "Best Folk Artist of 2012" and "Best Folk Artist of 2013" by the Colorado Springs Independent. His music is perfect for coffee shops, breweries, and events requiring background music. Click the contact tab for more information about booking. Thanks for stopping by!
2/11/2016 - "Light the Way" Album Review by Jamsphere Magazine
"If someone tells you there's no more good music being made nowadays, introduce him or her to Ben Knighten. I'm sure they'll change their ideas. I'm not talking about the beat driven dance floor stuff, or the hyped up, auto-tuned spoken-verse music. I'm talking melodies, harmonies and sensible lyrics; an intoxicating blend of intelligent songwriting, artful arranging, beautiful singing and graceful musicianship. I mean music that won't leave your head and I don't mean that in a bad way. Mellow yet melodic with soothing guitar and backing vocals."

Dinosaur costume from a t-shirt
This is an on going project so I'll be posting as I'm going. Excuse the photos there hasn't been much good light and I'm posting using my iPod touch. I'll add more pictures and descriptions of my progress. To be quite honest there is no 'plan' per-say. But it's for my sons birthday party at the weekend.
Reusing t-shirts that are going to be outgrown soon us an ideal way to get a costume started. This one is more of a vest as it has no sleeves, but any type would do!
Now I've started to add the spines , which are actually different sized 'house' shapes. And are stuffed with toy filler. As they are sewn so the bottoms are opened up, it pulls in the sides of the 'house' shapes and gives more of a stegosaurus shape.

Former UFC champion Matt Hughes says Georges St-Pierre should retire
LAS VEGAS — Former UFC welterweight champion Matt Hughes says Georges St-Pierre should retire for good.
St-Pierre has been on hiatus since vacating his 170-pound title following a controversial win over Johny (Bigg Rigg) Hendricks at UFC 167 last November. The 33-year-old from Montreal cited unspecified personal matters, saying he needed time away from the sport.
Hendricks went on to win the welterweight crown while St-Pierre, who continues to work out, required knee surgery after an injury in training.
St-Pierre has not announced his future plans other than to say that if he comes back, it won't be in 2014. Firas Zahabi, his longtime coach, told the MMAFighting website recently that he expects his fighter to return.
"I think there's a lot of fire left in him," he said of St-Pierre. "Especially since he got injured now, he's probably more motivated than ever … I think there's a lot of martial arts left in him."
But Hughes, who lost the UFC title to St-Pierre at UFC 65 in November 2006, says now may be the time for St-Pierre to finish on a winning note.
"The UFC would hate me saying this but I'm going to say it anyway," said Hughes, now vice-president of athlete development and government relations for the UFC. "If I was GSP, I'd probably hang them up. Here I am a guy that lost my (last) two fights and I'd love to get back in there (to finish on a win). And Georges got his hand raised the last fight.
"So if I had to give advice, I'd say, 'You want to get out? Get out."'
The 40-year-old Hughes, a UFC Hall of Famer, prefaced his remarks by saying he is a fan of St-Pierre.
"I like him. He always gets his hand raised and he always does it with a method. But he took a punishment with Johny Hendricks and you could tell that by his face at the (post-fight) news conference.
"He's made a lot of money. I don't know what he makes a fight, but he's made a lot of money. He made a lot more money than I have. And I'm retired. So he could step back, retire. He's got plenty of money.
"And it seems like maybe he's even lost a little bit of the drive. I wish he was more wanting to go out and finish somebody nowadays. It's just like he's going out there and kind of going through the moves, so I don't think his heart's there.
"He did get beat up last time. I don't know if he wants to come back and take a beating like that."
If GSP was to return to the Octagon, there will be people waiting to welcome him.
"He's going to come back against a guy like Robbie Lawler, who's going to hit him. And Johny Hendricks, who's going to hit him," said Hughes.
Hughes also cited St-Pierre branching out into movies like "Captain America: The Winter Soldier."
"So there's not many reasons for him to come back … You tell me what's he got to come back for?"

Carrie Bartz, who had just begun a term this spring on the Minnesota Knitters' Guild Board as Secretary, passed away unexpectedly on Monday, June 21, in Woodbury. She was 52. Services were held on June 28 at Wulff Woodbury. At press time, an online obituary was available at http://tinyurl.com/bartzwulff.
Carrie knew computers, and she knew knitting. She worked as an information technology specialist for the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, and had been a member of the Guild for less than a year when she volunteered for MKG's Web Site Task Force in 2009. Smart, friendly, and a passionate knitter, she was an invaluable member of the group as it met over the year, first to describe what the Guild needed for its new Web site, then to advertise for and finally hire the company that did the redesign over last fall and winter. Among other things, according to Guild President Shelley Monitor (also a member of the task force), Carrie compiled most of the Resources section of the new Web site, which was launched in May -- patterns, tutorials, yarn shops.
The loss of Carrie, our friend and colleague, will be keenly felt for years to come at the Guild. We are grateful for the intellectual legacy she left us, and mourn her passing.

The attack sparked a wave of protests across India in which a police officer died and more than 100 police and protestors were injured.
The 23-year-old victim has already undergone three operations in India after suffering severe intestinal injuries during the 40-minute gang rape on December 16 in which she was also assaulted with an iron rod.
She was flown by air ambulance from New Delhi overnight and arrived at Singapore's Mount Elizabeth Hospital early on Thursday "in an extremely critical condition", the hospital said in a statement.
"She is being examined and the hospital is working with the Indian High Commission [embassy]," it said, adding she was being treated at its intensive care unit.The head of the hospital that treated her in New Delhi hinted that the Mount Elizabeth Hospital, located in Singapore's Orchard Road shopping district, was chosen for its modern organ transplant facility.
"The said hospital has a state-of-art multi-organ transplant facility. The arrangement has also been made for the family to accompany her as the treatment may take longer period," BD Athani, medical superintendent of Safdarjung Hospital in Delhi, said on Wednesday.
"She has had to be operated upon three times. With fortitude and courage she has survived the after-effects of the injuries so far but her condition continues to be critical," he told reporters.
Government to cover the cost
The decision to approve the 23-year-old's transfer was taken at a Cabinet meeting in New Delhi on Wednesday and authorities said the Indian government would cover the cost of medical treatment.
"We arranged the passport and visa for the victim and members of her family," a foreign ministry official said.
India said it was setting up a special commission of inquiry after the gang rape which occurred when the woman was allegedly tricked into boarding a bus by six men who then took turns to assault her.
Six suspects have been arrested in connection with the attack and have been remanded in custody.
Announcing the commission on Wednesday, Finance Minister P Chidambaram said a separate panel would examine existing legislation and "suggest changes in the laws in order to make punishment for such horrific crimes stiffer".
"Whatever we do now is intended to demonstrate the government's serious intent in the matter that we will apprehend and punish the perpetrators. We will try and find out what went wrong … and fix responsibility and amend the laws," he said.
Thousands of people have taken to the streets since the attack to demonstrate both against the levels of violence and also the notoriously slow criminal justice system. – AFP
