Household Debt and Credit Report - First Quarter 2013
The latest Quarterly Report on Household Debt and Credit shows households continued to improve their finances during the first three months of 2013. Outstanding household debt declined approximately $110 billion from the previous quarter, due in large part to a reduction in housing-related debt and credit card balances. Meanwhile, delinquency rates for each form of household debt declined, with about 8.1 percent of outstanding debt in some stage of delinquency, compared with 8.6 percent the previous quarter.

Our hands are one of the physical tools of our trade. What do you do to keep them healthy and avoid injuries? What about wrists/shoulders or your whole body in general?
closed as off topic by Mark Trapp Dec 16 '11 at 1:49
Questions on Programmers Stack Exchange are expected to relate to software development within the scope defined in the FAQ. Consider editing the question or leaving comments for improvement if you believe the question can be reworded to fit within the scope. Read more about closed questions here.
You can have a not computer/keyboard related hobby. To avoid repetitive strain on your hands. I make chainmail. But there are countless other options. |
I have had some issues with RSI in my hands, mostly due to mouse usage, and have the following tricks to help me avoid problems:
As for general issues, like back and shoulder aches, I've found regular martial arts practice to help a lot. Correct posture is of course also not a bad idea, but it's not 100 percent of the solution for me. |
Reduce your stress and you will reduce your injury rate. This is much easier said than done. Exercise (even just walking around outside) helps. Time away from the monitor helps. Taking classes on relaxation or meditation or whatever works for you, helps. Massages, from a professional, if you can afford it, help. Pick up an addictive hobby that is NOT Xbox or PS3 or WoW. I play Warhammer--the painting part is hand-intensive but uses different muscles, and mostly it involves standing around moving models and thinking very hard about tactics, perfect for letting the arms relax. Or dancing, or singing, or other things that encourage motion. Do some strength training in your hands and arms and neck--AFTER you heal form initial injury. Strength seems to help keep the right postures so you avoid injury. Switch up your workplace frequently. Move your keyboard tray up and down. Switch between different keyboards and mice. Sit in different chairs. |
Excercices. I use Work Rave. But this nice piece of software will take care of the rest of your body as well. |
That is an excellent question. After 10 years of pro-development, I started getting chronic arm/hand issues - burning sensation from shoulder to finger-tips, even when not using a computer. A specialist helped me, and we made some changes:
Wow, 10 answers so far, and no one so far mentioned any kind of sports activity !! Now, I know programmers are not the most sports oriented people on this little piece of rock we call Earth, but they're also (rather) rational people, and probably understand the importance of keeping (not just your hands) healty, but healthy in general (no point being smart, if you're gonna die from a heart condition at 65, is there?) Jogging, cycling and tennis are my choices. I also, never had any problems with my hands whatsoever. |
Advice I have had from various professionals over the years:
In terms of general positional wellbeing I recommend visiting a chiropractor or similar from time to time if you can find a good one. Having been treated by physiotherapists and chiropractors it was always the latter that proved effective in fixing things quickly. If you really want to be able to help yourself you might want to consider something like the Alexander Technique, which teaches body awareness so that you can learn to correct your own position in simple ways. Given how much time you spend at the keyboard it is also important to have a good chair and to spend a few minutes figuring out how to adjust it correctly. This list of workstation stretches is also useful. |
Training with free weights at the gym with no gloves will keep the soft, smooth office hands away! Seriously, the training will prevent injuries. |
Tennis balls or some ball made of hard spongy foam. You can squeeze it to exersice your fingers. |
Trade in QWERTY for Colemak. It's easy to install, a bit harder to learn but it pays off. Prepare for a lot of slow typing for a week, and after a few weeks you're typing back at old speed, but a lot more relaxed. By the way, Colemak has a lot of keys in common with QWERTY, so I can switch between the two with only a little mental effort. |
I keep one of these at my desk and have gotten into the habit of picking it up and doing a few reps when I'm waiting for builds, thinking hard, etc. |
What about listening to them? When you start feeling like your hands are getting tired or something take a break. No need for fancy training or anything. Your body talks to you, just have to know how to listen. |
Using a clicky keyboard, such as an IBM Model M feels like a much better work out than one of those silent keyboards, and my fingers and wrists haven't suffered for it. |
Large strong elastic bands (really large). You can exercise your whole arm by stretching them. I suffer more from my shoulders than my arms, so this helps me a lot. |
Climbing is probably the best finger exercise you can ever get. But it's unfortunately easy to injure them, so you got to be careful. You also got to keep your fingernails short and your skin lotioned, 'cause the chalk dries it out. |
My hands are in terrible condition. Not that that's anything to brag about. I'm guilty of cracking knuckles. |
Chinese metal spheres; the ones you rotate using one hand. They are both entertaining, tress relieving, and a good massage for your palm and fingers. |
I had a problem with my shoulder blades..They use to pain like hell..But now i am following few little steps to overcome this, Take small breaks in between the work and Stretch your hands and make circles clock-wise and anti clockwise for about 20 times. That really worked for me. At the end of it take a deep breath. We need to keep our eyes as well safe, look at a distant object in between to reduce the strain. |
I keep my wrists above the keyboard, and I type like I typist, alternating hands and using different hands for chords, the way I learned in typing class (on a typewriter). I have had one repetitive strain injury in my life, and it was from taking notes by hand in college, not from typing. I fixed how I held my right hand on the desk and the problem went away. I only bother to respond because I see lots of computer users forcing their wrists down and reaching up further than they can comfortably reach with their wrists down; I also see a lot of discussion among programmers about hand and wrist injuries. Coincidence? My grandmother first pointed this out to me: she's been a secretary/typist for seventy years and has never had a strain injury. |
Posture is important. Keep your upper arms at your side and your wrists generally straight. Arm rests on your chair can help a lot if they're at the right level. Don't type too long at a time. I'm not sure it matters what you do when not typing, but I frequently bend my wrists and look out the window. (In a job like this, you're not always typing, or you're not thinking enough.) |
I use a dwell clicking utility which saves me from making thousands of mouse clicks per day. |

This is slowly creeping into my most-anticipated shows of the year. Ridiculous, considering it'll be my 9th Deerhunter show.
Rolling Stone needs to do stick with what they do best, i.e. sucking off U2 and Bruce Springsteen.

"Is there anyone who wants to see the sun go down?" asks singer Brandon Cox in "Memory Boy."

Almost a week away, fucking stoked.
I peaked at the latest setlists, and Fluorescent Grey is making a comeback.
*based upon tedious fact checking.
I've seen them like 8 times, now, and I've still never heard them play it.
*based upon tedious fact checking.
ruined it.
i've seen 'em play it once. that's great news.
"Fluorescent Grey" is my favorite Deerhunter song and they closed with it last night. They reworked it so it was kind of slow and creepy and amazing. When they break into the noisy part it was the greatest catharsis. Really fucking great show over all. Mostly stuff from the new one and Microcastle. Bradford is the oddest frontman but I think it's great that he gets to be a rock star. The new stuff sounded considerably less sleepy live and is very good. If you're a fan, get thee to your local show when they come through.
Flourescent Grey was on the setlist for Toronto but they played "Wash Off" instead.
Is anyone here going to the show on saturday? havent gotten my ticket yet, i kinda dont wanna be totally solo

I guess it's possible. I'm potentially going to Napa that day with the folks (if I finish writing my paper) but just for the day, so I might make it back to the bay in time to see that. I just REALLY want to catch Real Estate, since I've already got my Deerhunter ticket for LA.
Edit: I'll probably do whatever Drew does here.
last i checked there were still tix but that was last week. so no spookyfest for you then?

hello rv'ers, did you know…
0….there's an RV Network? It's not available everywhere via tv land (yet) but here's a list of the where's and how's of piping it into your home (on wheels or not). The home base for the network is in the rv capitol of the world.. do you know where that is? (it's here if you don't know..we didn't). Their goal (by our interpretation) is to educate, inform, highlight, share, and create a fun & informative community for those who rv, travel part and full time, and who have the spirit of travel in any way, shape or form.
They offer a variety of programs, like.. Ask the Professor (maintenance, tips & instruction), Gadgetplex (watch your men here ladies…), RV Kitchen (finding your footing in a kitchen on wheels), RVNN tv (interviews with travelers like Gone with the Wynns (rv'ers) & Captain and Clark, world travelers), Tails from the Road (keeping the 4 legged travelers happy & healthy) and if you think you have a show in you they are on the lookout for good talent.. details at Produce Your Show.
If you haven't already, pop over and check them out.. here's their website, facebook, and twitter sites. And a big hello to Courtney & Andrew.. awesome hosts of RVNN tv (among their many jobs..).

Who says February is all about Cupid, Valentines and love?
February is also Dog Dental Awareness Month and if you've gotten a sloppy kiss from your dog and had a whiff of doggy breath, you don't need February to remind you of the importance of proper dental care.
Doggy breath is the first sign that something is amiss in your dog's mouth. Take a good look at your pup's teeth. If they're not pearly white and have a buildup of plaque then you need to do something about it.
For younger dogs, regular dental care should be part of their normal vet checkup schedule. Many times, the buildup of plaque and scale can be removed by your vet annually. Older dogs who have not had proper dental care over the years may have to be put under to have their teeth cleaned, or your vet may say it can't be done because of age.
In either case, brushing your dog's teeth, giving them treats that stimulate chewing and providing them with toys that stimulate the gums and remove plaque should be something you do on a continual basis.
Our friends over at dog.com are offering our readers 20% off dog dental items for the month of February. What a deal!

We will be playing a board game that teaches you how to become financially free. The founder says it perfectly: "In 1994, after becoming financially free, I was searching for a way to teach others what my rich dad had taught me. You can only learn so much by reading and it dawned on me that rich dad taught me through repetition. That is why I began creating educational board games. They are, in my opinion, the easiest and best way to increase your financial intelligence while you're having fun. …

A man must learn to be a man It is incumbent on each man to learn what it means to be a man and to learn who they are as a man before they take a woman It does not happen by accident Our culture does nothing to ensure the ascent of boys to manhood. Fraternal hazing is done to boys by boys, traditionally lacking in the assumption of a man's purpose or sense of identity other than as part of a group. The Military has a similar challenge imposing regiment and order in place of powerful independent …

Display is not coming
My computer shutdown automatically.
Later I tried to switch on the machine again but it (CPU) gave 1 long beep and then 3 beeps.
On monitor, it shows that it's trying to find signals (showing HDMI - Digital - Analog) and then monitor goes to standby.
Open the case and found that display card's (8800GT) is stopped and its not working at all.
Remove card and clean it. Still fan was not moving. Clean fan properly and used WD40 and fan started working now.
Placed card back and cabled. But still machine is coming up but there is no display. CPU is still giving 1 long beep & 3 beeps and monitor still showing HDMI - Digital - Analog.
I wonder if GPU is dead!!! But how come fan is working. Do i need to buy new GPU now. Pls help.
If the motherboard has a connection for a video card (onboard video) try it. If it doesn't, see if you can borrow a card long enough to try that. This is the only way to tell before buying a new card. the beeps are the motherboard telling you something is wrong.
Without knowing what company made the BIOS for your board, there is no way to tell what the beeps actually mean.

spec is like this:
cpu: c2q 6600
gpu: 8800gt
mobo: asus p5q
audio: using creative audiog 2 for 7.1
4gb ram
320gb c:
2tb d:
lg dvdrw
it's not under warranty as it ran fine for 3 years. i wonder why mobo didn't give any warning. like whenever gpu was getting over heated, mobo used to give beep. and if it shutdown when gpu is dead then it should shutdown when gpu was getting over heatup.
i don't have any manual since this machine was assembled 3/4 years back. i can't find anything immediately.
i am not in position to buy any expensive card now. could u please suggest what DX11 card can be fit on my mobo now.
Not sure of your case size but a small HD5770 or HD6770 should be cheap and is DX11.
RIG:i7-3770k @4.6Ghz/ASUS P8Z77 Deluxe/GSkill DDR3-2400/2xHD7970/Vertex 4/SSonic Plat 1000/H100/HAF XB
Laptop: i7-3630/ 16GB (4x4) DDR3-1600/ HM77/ GTX 675MX@1050Mhz/ 128GB SSD/ 256GB Vector SSD/ 17in Matte/ Steel Series Keyboard/ Killer Networks/ 1080p

According to the ASUS website you have an AMI BIOS, these are the codes for AMI. Any PCI-E card will fit your M/B. I suggest you make certain that is the problem before replacing it.
Note: AMIBIOS beep codes are short, sound in quick succession, and usually sound immediately after powering on the PC.
1 BeepA single beep from an AMI based BIOS means there has been a memory refresh timer error. The solution is often to replace the RAM in the computer.
2 BeepsTwo beeps means there has been a parity error in base memory. This is an issue with the first 64KB block of memory in your RAM. The solution is usually to replace the memory.
3 BeepsThree beeps means there has been a base memory read/write test error. Replacing the RAM usually solves this AMI beep code.
4 BeepsFour beeps means that the motherboard timer is not working properly. A hardware failure with an expansion card or the motherboard itself could be the cause of this beep code.
5 BeepsFive beeps means there has been a processor error. A damaged expansion card, the CPU, or the motherboard could be prompting this AMI beep code.
6 BeepsSix beeps means that there has been an 8042 Gate A20 test error. This beep code is usually caused by an expansion card that has failed or the motherboard that is no longer working.
7 BeepsSeven beeps indicates a general exception error. This AMI beep code could be caused by an expansion card problem, a motherboard hardware issue, or a damaged CPU. Replacing the faulty hardware usually fixes the cause of this beep code.
8 BeepsEight beeps means that there has been an error with the display memory. This beep code is usually caused by a faulty video card. Replacing the video card usually clears this up.
9 Beeps
Nine beeps means that there has been an AMIBIOS ROM checksum error. Literally, this would indicate an issue with the BIOS chip on the motherboard. However, since replacing a BIOS chip is sometimes impossible, this AMI BIOS issue is usually corrected by replacing the motherboard.
10 BeepsTen beeps means that there has been a CMOS shutdown register read/write error. This beep code is usually caused by a hardware issue with the AMI BIOS chip. A motherboard replacement will usually solve this problem, although it could be caused by a damaged expansion card in rare situations.
11 BeepsEleven beeps means that the cache memory test has failed. Some piece of failing hardware is usually to blame for this AMI BIOS beep code.

In this segment of Fox & Friends, called "Pulling the Plug: The Dim Future of Solar Power," co-host Gretchen Carlson asked asked Fox Business reporter Shibani Joshi why Germany has been able to generate so much more solar power than the U.S.
"What was Germany doing correctly?," Carlson asked. "Are they just a smaller country, have they make it more feasible--"
"They're a smaller country," Joshi answered, "and they've got a lot of sun. Right? They've got a lot more sun than we do."
Well, no. What Germany has a lot of are solar panels. Their solar potential, however, pales in comparison with the U.S.:
Click here to see a larger version of the image.
The fact that Germany produces over four times the solar energy as the U.S. has a lot to do with the country's aggressive solar subsidies, which make U.S. solar subsidies look like peanuts.
[via Media Matters]
If they are using photovoltaic panels made from silicon they they are wasting much more energy. Currently only heat generation types of solar energy can return more energy than used to create. The systems PS reported in use in Spain are worthy of any real investment. Taxpayer funded PV cells are another loss funded by idiots. It may be true that China can produce PV cells in terms that seem to make economic sense but in reality they too still consume more energy to create.
I am all for taxpayer funded programs to convert the sun's heat into electricity. I am for some limited funding for research into better more green solutions to PV cells.
This is stupid, this article has been all over the Internet on multiple sites, why must these supposed 'science' sites become nothing but parroting what someone says?? How about something real news worthy?
Germany installs more PV because they have a feed-in tariff that pays people double the rate of purchasing energy on the grid. It pays off in a couple of years. The utilities in the US would be the ones having to pay out the difference, unless some governor wants to forfeit his seat by signing a bill paying people to make their own energy. The utilities do not want to lose their load, and they sure don't want to pay people for leaving.
More sun is irrelevant. The relevant point is how you get paid when you produce more than you consume. Germany made a plan (good or bad is not important), the US doesn't have one. That is what makes a solar array on your roof an enticing or silly investment.
Well, more sun isn't irrelevant. That was a stretch. But equally important is how you get paid.
Actually wind is currently 40 cents/kwh -solar 90 when 5 to 7 times sized transmission requirements and gas backup are included. Replace the gas with the best projections of grid level storage add a buck a kwh to that. Primarily backed up with inefficient fossil plant run inefficiently its less ghg's less fossil fuel far less money skipping the wind and solar and just using efficient fossil plant.
The cost of wind and solar having already achieved its maximum economy of scale benefit will resume its slow annual cost increase once Chinese dumping ends.
90 cents for solar. How's that:
Lets take Vermont for example. Lotsa greenies there telling us the wonders of solar.
Google "openpv.nrel.gov/rankings"
So vermont $7.53 watt/peak or 7530 kw/peak installed average. Ok so using pV watts in Burlington the one watt peak gets 1.117kwh per annum. Financing at 7% home equity over 20 year life gives approx
53 cents a kwh
now lets add in for the array on every roof scam the low information greenie is wont to propose, 17 cents a kwh for gas backup, and 10 cents a kwh for 7 times sized transmission systems and we get
80 cents a kwh.
While the installed cost might be lower, commercial is similar but financing rates for the typical fly by night solar/wind operator are at least 15% so
90 cents a kwh.
Here's a 17 MW peak solar install in service Jan 2011 by expert engineers at Duke Energy using real solar panels made in the USA not the Walmart quality Chinese junk with the same service life as everything else you buy at Walmart.
Google "davidson_county_solar_farm_north_carolina"
$43 a watt average, 65 cents a kwh at Dukes discount rate. To that we need to add 17 cents a kwh for gas backup and 8 cents for transmission. 90 cents a kwh - Nice publicity.
According to the NREL the cost of commercial solar installs has not changed significantly since Jan 2011.
Now remember because of gas backup to solar no GHG's are saved. So we need replace the gas with green storage.
The DOE projects future research bring that cost to $120/khr resulting in a buck a kwh added to your power bill.
There is a cost to the silly obsession of the uninformed in these worthless forms of power and its paid in the blood of millions of innocents.
If all the money wasted on wind and solar in the last 10 years had been spent on nukes the world would now be coal free, 30 million air pollution deaths worldwide wouldn't have happened and the AGW precipice be moved back 20 years.
Jefro, is this the third time I have called you out for saying solar panels don't create more energy than it took to make them? YOU ARE WRONG!!!!!!
ohh and here is a different link (for the second time) proving you wrong, and please provide any peer reviewed articles that are contradicting.
What if a PV manufacturer bootstraps his operation, i.e., using electricity from PV to manufacture PV? There will be the initial cost of the PVs, but the next PVs would no longer carry with them any fossil fuel related cost. What is left would be the cost of materials. Cost of energy to create PVs would be virtually zero.
I'm quite disappointed. What ever you think of Fox News and the details of the argument presented in the article, anything that comes "via Media Matters" doesn't deserve inclusion in a publication with the word "Science" in its name. Media Matters ranks right up there with MoveOn.org as an extreme leftist source. If Popular Science doesn't realize this, it is both surprising and disturbing.
Liberal Playbook 101-103
1: You must agree that any non-left leaning organization must be stopped or marginalized (Fox News, Boy Scouts, neighborhood church, married people, etc.)
2: You must copy & paste the latest talking points from Media Matters, MSNBC, or DNC. (begin buzz network...... now.) Once it's out there, all water cooler educators can devour it like a free-range gluten-free spinach wrap.
3: Practice your eye rolling, scoffing, and gasp when someone defends or admits liking Fox News, boy scouts, church, or married people.
Right on cue , PopSci
Obviously Yoshi is ignorant. But PV in Germany is a joke. I have been there often, once for the whole month of July I did not see the sun once, or that is at least how it felt to me. Feed in tariffs for PVs are incredibly high, if they had to pay that price nobody could afford electricity.
What to expect from Fox. Instead of getting real experts on their show they ask people who know nothing about it, who have to stick to the fox/Republican agenda and who spend 2 minutes on Google to give viewers Fair&Balanced information. You can ask anyone on the street.
And opinions are not facts even though more and more of the "news" on Fox is pure opinion. Even Rupert Murdock acknowledge he uses the channel for his pro-republican agenda. It`s like your back in the stone age were facts are irrelevant and opinion is everything. Any healthy forward thinking person needs to be careful to watch this garbage.
A couple things. First, Shibani is a business reporter commenting on the state of solar energy in the U.S.and how the "market" is responding to it and the natural gas boom. Second, everything she says about the PV industry and its inability--at this point--to thrive without massive and wasted government subsidies is correct. Third, it's clear from her body language and a couple stumbling statements that she's nervous. Fourth, she's obviously speculating when responding to the question about Germany. Fifth, it seems, from her follow up comments, that she may be talking about the northeastern U.S. only when she's comparing how sunny Germany is.
Finally, you're making a mountain out of a molehill. Ironically, Shibani's gaffe may be educating a bunch of people on the real state of solar power in the U.S. and elsewhere. Other than the gaffe, she's correct that solar isn't viable yet without huge government subsidies. Our government has wasted $1 billion on failed enterprises in the last few years, whereas natural gas is viable now and it's booming.
I have faith that solar PV science and manufacturing technology will continue to improve and within a few years it will be economical enough to be more widely adopted. Throwing taxpayer money at it isn't going to get us there any faster.
There are two 2 gigawatt solar farms being built
within 50 miles of my home in Lake Havasu City, AZ. We
receive on average less than 4" of precipitation a year. It takes clouds to make rain and we don't see many of those either.
Sethdayal, please provide a link (links) that back the numbers you have just quoted.
jefro is a Big Oil company owner afraid for this job future nothing more. Totally erroneous statements made in an attempt to distort facts. Mantiss is totally right your a fraud Jefro. www.nrel.gov/docs/fy04osti/35489.pdf
Seriously? This childish liberal attack belongs on PopSci how exactly? Cut and pasted from Media Matters? Emily Elert and Dan Nozowitz = useful idiots, not journalists...
germany gets about as much sun as alaska . or an eskimos ass crack lol !
MLJNR: We have over 300 days/year of full sun in the Tucson area, too. My "homemade" set up works like a top. Most of AZ is ripe for the Spanish Model heat design, as well. If it weren't for corruption, we would be an all electric world. Tucson is called "The Solar City." That is a blatant lie, but it sounds good.
I feel so sad for FOX News viewers.
Really surprised that Popular Science would use Media Matters as a source for, well, anything.
For anyone interested in what the actual results of green everything has done for Germany, Spiegel has a running series. It isn't pretty:
If PopSci actually spent one article showing every misstated or incorrect statement in all the bigger media outlets (regardless of their political leanings), you could probably write an extra 20 articles a day.
Seems to me that maybe this author (or this site) feel that they can't keep up writing about science, so they omit that part and try sensationalism.
May I make a suggestion... Instead of writing a couple sentences of material critisizing a misstated or incorret statement, maybe (at the very least) take the time to write up a full length story giving far more scientific meat to the conversation. How about maybe an answer to the question that the reporter didn't answer, and that you allude to? (What was Germany doing correctly?," Carlson asked. "Are they just a smaller country, have they make it more feasible--")
Answer those questions and you might actually have a science article, even if you keep your political slant. But leave out the science and you only have a political slant. And I can go do many other sites for politics if I want. But I want science, and if I can't get it here, I just won't come here.
I did provide the links. Call a friend at home for help with the obvious arithmetic.
I am not swayed by a single paper. If you believe that you can create PV cells from PV cells then you should invest in it. The real cost to product end point to end point is much more than the return. I have spent time working with engineers in an attempt to manufacture PV cells. It is a loosing proposition. China dumps their products at a loss, their environmental and work place safety are non-existent. Their monetary practices, raw materials and other factors may seem to suggest one is really doing good for the earth with these products but they are not.
I do consider heat generation to be a very positive way to create energy. As I said before PS and many other places have shown real green power from the sun's heat.
I wish I did own big oil stock or an oil well. That would be nice. Even the big oil companies have tried their hand at PV's and lost money. They may have made some back in liberal phony tax or CO2 credits.
I have said this before. If you think you can make PV cells at a profit go ahead.
@FOTOBUM - Conservative Playbook 101-103
1: If anyone points out the stupid crap spewed on Fox News, points out the homophobic bigotry of the Boy Scouts, clearly and logically points out that you neighborhood church is teaching nonsensical, delusional superstition, claims that "marriage" should be available to ALL responsible adults, call it "marginalizing".
2: Claim that any news outlet that doesn't regurgitate far right-wing, illogical, religious crap must be "Lame Stream Media" and can't be trusted.
3: Practice your eye rolling, scoffing, and gasp when someone doesn't defend or thinks Fox News is about as far from "Fair & Balanced" as anyone can be, points out the homophobic bigotry of the boy scouts, points out that religion is nonsensical delusional superstition, or that civil liberties should be extended to ALL citizens, not just self-righteous religious nutcases.
Right on cue, Right-Winger
It's amusing to read your completely irrelevant comments attacking religion, Boy Scouts, et al, in a thread about the solar power generating conditions existing in Germany versus the US.
As for the veracity of the statements made by the Fox News reporters, they might be true under certain conditions. The mean latitude of Germany is more northerly than much of the US. This means that it has less solar exposure during winter, but more solar exposure during summer. Plus, if you were to take into account the large land area of Alaska when calculating the mean latitude of the US, the comparison made by the Fox News reporters may not be far off.
Once you see the words "Fox news" you can stop reading. You know something will be inherently wrong.
She is only taking account of east coast. As if East Coast is the Entire U.S. She is well aware U.S has many areas in Mid West region where its heavy sunshine. Which is why one of the largest solar plants in the world is coming up in Arizona. Producing enough power to supply 70,000 homes.
There are also different types of solar technology for example Solar Thermal plants which absorb sunlight and direct the excess sunlight to a central tower filled with salt. This melts the salt during the day causing it to be in a molten state. At night, the heat of the salt turning back into solid form turns turbines which power the plant at night.
I am pretty sure she did properly did her research. Just she was required to spin the article to natural gas.
She completely avoided the issues with NG also. For example fracking uses up 7 million gallons of water per shale. 30% which is trapped forever in the ground. Anyway there is a great article about it on Popular mechanics.
When in the course of history you have nut cases like Jefro with no knowledge of a subject other than his own nutty intuitions it's appalls everyone.
Here are a little facts Mr Jefro for you to digest about how much LESS energy it takes to produce solar energy compared to say an idiot idea by past Presidents who also have no idea about the real world.
Digest that and then you'll see that solar is far far far far far more efficient at say converting biofuels to energy.
Get a life Jefro you know not what you speak.
well said *KeithPinster, I couldn't have made my point better.
Whats an obvious political ploy by Pop-Sci is you never see this about CNN and a reporter asking if an asteroid close encounter was caused by "Global warming"
Pop-sci is no longer even remotely a respectable publication.
Now out of curiosity, will PopSci run a silly anti-CNN articles about their talkinghead asking Bill Nye if asteroids have a link to global warming?
Somehow I doubt it.
Spot on *Gman46 & *Kehvans.
Simply relabel your CNN links as FoxNews gaffes and they'll be viral by the end of the day.
We can also look forward to Emily or Dan slapping us in the face by copy & pasting them back here on PopSci as follow-up to their hard-hitting "science" articles.
PopSci shows its true colors. Fox News did not say this. A pundit who was on a Fox News show said it. It is like someone commenting on a PopSci story and then I say that PopSci said it. I have never commented on this site before but this stupid title for a stupid article has brought me out. Stay out of politics and stick to science
This woman wasn't a pundit, she works for fox news, her husband also works for an investment firm. Guess what they invest in? I'll give you a hint, it isn't solar.
here is her bio, which seems to be made right after her gaff
Wow @mantiss,
You should be proud you did your part to advance the cause. Your research seems to have dug up alot of personal info on an obscure gal on TV who made a simple mistake.
"By judging others, you make yourself easy to judge." ― Ashly Lorenzana
PS You misspelled gaffe :)
100w PV panel for $158 USD buy it now on ebay.
Panel operates 6 hr/day for 260 days each year for 30 years.
100w * 6 hr * 260 = 156,000 watt hours/year = 156 kilowatt hours per year.
30 years * 156 kWh = 4680 kWh total power generated during life of PV panel.
Assume electricity costs 10 cents per kilowatt hour.
0.10 dollars/kWh * 4680 kWh = $468.
How could anyone sell a 100w solar panel for $158 dollars if it cost over $468
in energy alone to make it as jefro claims?
I'm afraid jefro is either uninformed, misinformed, extremely anti-solar,
has a hidden agenda, can't think properly or all of the above.
This link takes you to ca.gov showing Solar Projects Approved - 4242.5 MW.
In a few short years California State alone will dwarf all European countries
combined solar power output.
(1) Germany has massive solar because they pay for it. Paying for it with tax money just spreads the extra cost in higher taxes to everyone - so the person who looses the most is the one with the least solar (paying for other's cost) while the one who wins is the one with the most solar (pushing cost only others).
Thus, it is a system of drowning swimmers struggling to climb up on each other.
(2) The US has more sun; we also have more people. The people do not live where the sun is. Even Arizona solar is more expensive than gas AND it gets worse the farther than energy must be transmitted.
(3) If a panal is cheapers because the energy used to create it is cheap, dirty Chinese coal, it looks good on this side of the ocean, but it looses its ecological value.
well said KeithPinster, except I would have gone with a different approach in regard to the BSOA and the chuch thing. Not I agree with that part.
FotoBum - You are the embodiment of the other end of the spectrum, KeithPinster had you pegged. Also, I wouldn't comment on people's spelling when yourself had many errors.
Lastly, I think the article is trying to shine some light (pun intended) on a statement made on FOX that was not corrected on air. The statement to Bill Nye was corrected for the viewers. Yes, PopSci should do better to include all "gaffes" if they are going to contiune with this type reporting (Please don't PopSci). I personally would have made the article's focus on the differences between the two countries' abilities and not on the slip up of a usually incorrect and biased news anchor.
And a CNN anchor thought asteroids were caused by global warming. I'd say the claim by the CNN anchor is a bit more egregious.
-The idea that photovoltaic surfaces require more energy to manufacture than they produce is nonsense. With no moving parts, they function for decades without maintenance.
-Fossil fuels are very heavily subsidized by the governments that depend on them. How can solar compete without counter-subsidies?
-The greater the population density, the more viable solar becomes, because thin-film PV can be added to virtually any rigid surface (roofs, windows, vehicle bodies, etc.).
-PV-generated electricity can be converted to hydrogen on-site for storage and fuel with nothing but a simple electrolysis cell and purified water. Hydrogen can then be stored or transported safely at very low pressure as a metal hydride--compare that with oil and gas infrastructure.
-If PV was being manufactured on the scale of mobile phones, solar energy would already be so cheap that fossil fuel could not possibly compete--hence the billions spent in ridiculous propaganda.
You guys make me laugh. The US taxpayer already took a $800 million hit on two PV cell makers false claims.
You will never see any product on the market today that will last 30 years. The efficiency in 10 years will be almost half the so called rated output. I'd like to meet the person who claims their panel will last 30 years. Most installations fail in 5 from one reason or another or even weather related.
To add to this you can't easily use the DC output. Inverters and batteries will be needed. This so called $158 panel needs $1000 more in maintenance and parts for the next 15 years. This also has to figure into the total "green" value of the product.
You guys really need to do your investment plans better. No one with millions to invest would take a chance on PV cells until they return 35 % or more and have a full real lifetime of 30 years.
I have said this before, China is dumping their products. They have no OSHA, EPA and support their trade with unfair tactics. They do have very cheap hydroelectric that they use.
For now, a PV cell is just a battery. It is not a green product.
MLJNR The statement about Arizona solar being more expensive than gas must be related to commercial production, if it is true. My system will pay for itself in < 2years. I built it all, but I'm somewhat of a craftsman. You also failed to include solar thermal models. The one that I am familiar with is the Spanish model. I won't be making one of those for home use anytime soon, but they are highly effective. My PV's may not be green, but they are a money saver. I still think that some form of nuclear power generation is viable, especially with all of our "newly created anti-terrorist forces" to protect them, and us. Just a thought.
Upon seeing the headline of this article my very first thought was "evacuate Germany due to impending Ice Age!"
Sunpower has warranties upto 25 years with very minimal output degradation.
Also, the value of solar depends on where it is implemented. There are some types of installations where solar is currently a better option as compared to any other source while other places where solar will never be able to compete.
Power generation is not as simple as you think and there are many more factors that go in determining a source's viability.
like any other technology it will take time for solar to be able to compete in cost but if you look at the past 10 years, cost has come down drastically. as mentioned in one of the comments, fossil fuels are heavily subsidized.
P.S. solar thermal has a very low conversion efficiency

of course this should be clear, but i think it has to be mentioned espacially:
AND is not the same like &&
for example:
<?php $a && $b || $c; ?>
is not the same like
<?php $a AND $b || $c; ?>
the first thing is
(a and b) or c
the second
a and (b or c)
'cause || has got a higher priority than and, but less than &&
of course, using always [ && and || ] or [ AND and OR ] would be okay, but than you should at least respect the following:
<?php $a = $b && $c; ?>
<?php $a = $b AND $c; ?>
the first code will set $a to the result of the comparison $b with $c, both have to be true, while the second code line will set $a like $b and THAN - after that - compare the success of this with the value of $c
maybe usefull for some tricky coding and helpfull to prevent bugs :D

- Precedência de Operadores
- Operadores Aritméticos
- Operadores de Atribuição
- Operador Bit-a-bit
- Operadores de Comparação
- Operadores de controle de erro
- Operadores de Execução
- Operadores de Incremento/Decremento
- Operadores Lógicos
- Operadores de String
- Operadores de Arrays
- Operadores de tipo
Um operador é algo que você alimenta com um ou mais valores (ou expressões, no jargão de programação) e que devolve outro valor (e por isso os próprios construtores se tormam expressões). Assim, você pode pensar que as funções e os construtores que retornam valores (como o print) são operadores e os outros que não retornam nada (como echo) como uma outra coisa.
Há três tipos de operadores. Primeiramente, os operadores unários, que operam em apenas um valor. Por exemplo, ! (operador de negação) ou o ++ (operador de incremento). No segundo grupo estão os operadores binários, o o grupo que contém a maioria dos operadores que o PHP suporta, com uma lista completa logo abaixo na seção Precedência de operadores.
O terceiro grupo é do operador ternário: ?:. Ele pode ser usado para selecionar entre dois valores dependendo de uma terceira, em vez de selecionar duas sentenças ou encadeamentos de execução. Englobar expressões ternárias com parênteses é uma boa idéia.
The variable symbol '$' should be considered as the highest-precedence operator, so that the variable variables such as $$a[0] won't confuse the parser. [http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.variable.php]
A quick note to any C developers out there, assignment expressions are not interpreted as you may expect - take the following code ;-
print_r( $a ) ;
This will output;-
Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 6 [2] => 3 )
as if the code said;-
Under a C compiler the result is;-
Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 5 [2] => 3 )
as if the code said;-
It would appear that in php the increment in the left side of the assignment is processed prior to processing the right side of the assignment, whereas in C, neither increment occurs until after the assignment.
Note that in php the ternary operator ?: has a left associativity unlike in C and C++ where it has right associativity.
You cannot write code like this (as you may have accustomed to in C/C++):
$a = 2;
echo (
$a == 1 ? 'one' :
$a == 2 ? 'two' :
$a == 3 ? 'three' :
$a == 4 ? 'four' : 'other');
echo "\n";
// prints 'four'
You need to add brackets to get the results you want:
$a = 2;
echo ($a == 1 ? 'one' :
($a == 2 ? 'two' :
($a == 3 ? 'three' :
($a == 4 ? 'four' : 'other') ) ) );
echo "\n";
//prints 'two'
Other Language books' operator precedence section usually include "(" and ")" - with exception of a Perl book that I have. (In PHP "{" and "}" should also be considered also). However, PHP Manual is not listed "(" and ")" in precedence list. It looks like "(" and ")" has higher precedence as it should be.
Note: If you write following code, you would need "()" to get expected value.
$bar = true;
$str = "TEST". ($bar ? 'true' : 'false') ."TEST";
Without "(" and ")" you will get only "true" in $str.
(PHP4.0.4pl1/Apache DSO/Linux, PHP4.0.5RC1/Apache DSO/W2K Server)
It's due to precedence, probably.
Simple POST and PRE incremnt sample:
$b = 5;
$a = ( ( ++$b ) > 5 ); // Pre-increment test
echo (int)$a;
$b = 5;
$a = ( ( $b++ ) > 5 ); // Post-increment test
echo (int)$a;
This will output 10, because of the difference in post- and pre-increment operations
The -> operator, not listed above, is called "object operator" (T_OBJECT_OPERATOR).
The scope resolution operator ::, which is missing from the list above, has higher precedence than [], and lower precedence than 'new'. This means that self::$array[$var] works as expected.
$result1 = 7 + 8 * 9/3 -4;
$result2 = 7 + 8 * (9/3 -4);
$result3 =(7 + 8)* 9/3 -4;
echo "Result1 for 7 + 8 * 9/3 -4 = $result1 Result2 for 7 + 8 * (9/3 -4) = $result2 and Result3 (7 + 8)* 9/3 -4 = $result3 "
which gives results as under
Result1 for 7 + 8 * 9/3 -4 = 27 Result2 for 7 + 8 * (9/3 -4) = -1 and Result3 (7 + 8)* 9/3 -4 = 41
Execution Order is 1) expression in brackets 2) division 3) multiplication 4) addition and 5) subtraction
Method chaining is read left to right (left associative):
class Test_Method_Chain
public function One()
echo "One" . PHP_EOL;
return $this;
public function Two()
echo "Two" . PHP_EOL;
return $this;
public function Three()
echo "Three" . PHP_EOL;
return $this;
$test = new Test_Method_Chain();
/* Ouputs:
This is very common problem: set one variable to another, if it is not empty. If it is, set it to something else.
For example: set $bar to $foo, if $foo is empty, set $bar to "undefined";
if(!empty($foo)) $bar= $foo; else $bar= "undefined";
OR operator can shorten it:
$bar= @$foo or $bar= "undefined";
In response to mathiasrav at gmail dot com:
The reason for that behavior is the parentheses. From the description:
"Parentheses may be used to force precedence, if necessary. For instance: (1 + 5) * 3 evaluates to 18."
So the order of operations says that even though the equality operator has higher precedence, the parentheses in your statement force the assignment operator to a higher precedence than the equality operator.
That said, it still doesn't work the way you expect it to. Neither way works, for these reasons:
if ( $a != ($a = $b) )
Order of operations says to do the parentheses first. So you end up with:
$a = $b;
if ( $a != $a )
Which is obviously going to be false. Without the parentheses:
if ( $a != $a = $b )
Order of operations says to do the inequality first, then the assignment, so you have:
if ( $a != $a );
$a = $b;
Which again is not what you expected, and again will always be false. But because you are only working with values of 0 and 1, you can make use of the XOR operator:
if ( $a ^= $b )
This will only be true if 1) $a is 0 and $b is 1, or 2) $a is 1 and $b is 0. That is precisely what you wanted, and it even does the assignment the way you expected it to.
foreach ($ourstring as $c) {
if ($bold ^= $c['bold']) $resstring .= bold;
if ($underline ^= $c['underline']) $resstring .= underline;
$resstring .= $c[0];
That code now works and produces the output you expected.

Learn About Global Oneness Day
Global Oneness Day, an annual event and telesummit conceived of and organized by Humanity's Team Worldwide, is a bountiful treasure to all who are seekers of personal development, on the ground calls to action, and much more.
Steve Farrell, Executive Director, Worldwide Coordinating Director of Humanity's Team, said in a recent interview, "It is important to identify spokespeople for Oneness on all levels, science, education, business, and invite them to talk about it and have their voices inspire and impact."
Humanity's Team is working to unite humanity in building a future we will feel honored to leave to our children. Yet the vision does not occupy the future alone. The movement is committed to awakening people to a new world of oneness in this generation, right now, today. They are working hand in hand with other like-minded organizations and people to help birth this new way of seeing the world as One.
Together, Humanity's Team and Global Oneness Day has become a global movement consisting of more than 100,000 volunteers, members and supporters from over 150 countries on six continents. Global Oneness Day and its free all day telesummit, combined with events set up locally in communities all over the world, exposes people to key truths and concepts that are vital to our greater understanding, builds optimistic collaboration by connecting individuals to a larger mission, and educates us about the concept of Oneness, the truth that life and all living things, including ourselves, are sacred, interconnected, and interdependent.
Children and adults everywhere know what Earth Day is. They participate in it in their schools and homes each April, making posters, planning events, talking about it to each other, inspiring action and change. Global Oneness Day is poised to also be richly regarded by children and community in much the same way.
Global Oneness Day events encompass diverse fields of knowledge and learning, and speak to different ways of knowing, including science, philosophy, and direct experience. In this way, the events are working to reach people everywhere, awakening the ability to see our interdependence and effectively shifting our priorities. There are inspirational speakers of all sorts and from all walks of life, spiritual leaders, scientists, thought leaders, philosophers, educators, world leaders; all of these come together on Global Oneness Day and throughout the year to share their wisdom with us that we might realize and enact our Oneness.
David Bohm, a well-known physicist and young contemporary of Einstein's, when speaking of modern physics, said that the profound implication of Bell's Theorem is the paradoxical reality of "separation without separateness. We are all one." "Fragmentation consists of false division, making a division where there is tight connection." Instead of seeing wholeness, we see separateness. "Fragmentation is the hidden source of the social, political, and environmental crisis facing the world."
We are constantly bombarded with the seemingly insurmountable paradigm of a fragmented, dysfunctional world, violence, conflict, an inability to come to agreements, a paradigm that, deep inside, we realize radically dishonors ourselves and each other.
The events of Global Oneness Day, and the entire year of events offered by Humanity's Team, work to break the boundaries of perceived separateness and reduce the fragmentation it creates. Hailed as a call toward a new spirituality, the events are designed to foster personal experience, wisdom, and change, gleaned from the inside out.
All of the programs are about, or speak to, the why, what, when, where and how of inner process, the only real way to break through the boundaries of our current way of seeing into the next phase of consciousness evolution, that state in which we fully recognize and act in accordance with Oneness, our interconnectedness with all of life and with the Source of all Life. One soon discovers, through the cultivation of the self, that consciousness and spirituality are inseparable, and therein lays the felt sense and recognition of the interconnected nature of the Universe.
Global Oneness Day and the Humanity's Team movement gives us access to wisdom needed to transcend the current worldview and awaken to a new view, a view in which together we become the stewards, the heroic protectors, the lovers of all life on earth. We not only accept, but rejoice in "a shared responsibility for a shared community and shared world."
Take a moment to notice, do you feel a call within you; can you hear the still, small voice that is quietly appealing to your deep sensibilities, or perhaps an urge that is getting louder and louder, hailing you from within to be of compassionate service to life on this planet? You are not alone. That call is within each of us, stirring. How do we hear it? How do we heed it? And once we do begin to hear its voice and we yearn to give to the world our own unique gift, where do we begin?
Humanity's Team supports, encourages and gives life to that call with its current and potential collaborations, global projects, awareness raising events, and dialogs that Global Oneness Day delivers. Global Oneness Day, and indeed year round efforts coordinated by Humanity's Team members world wide, supply energy and know-how in myriad ways to awaken, enliven, and answer that call.
J. Krishnamurti, a world speaker and a close friend of Bohm's said, "The crisis is in our consciousness, not in the world. The turning point is not in politics, in religion, in the scientific world; it is in our consciousness."
Humanity's Team, with numbers growing greater each day, will soon consist of hundreds of thousands of people paying attention. Never before has the wisdom needed to leap into our greater future been so accessible to so many all at once. Through Global Oneness Day and events all year, utilizing the magnificent interconnecting vehicle of the internet, Humanity's Team is working everyday to acknowledge and birth this consciousness shift into the world.
This year 2013, The Association for Global New Thought (AGNT) is co-producing the Global Oneness Day Summit with Humanity's Team.

When Same-Sex Marriage Was a Christian Rite
Contrary to myth, Christianity's concept of marriage has not been set in stone since the days of Christ, but has constantly evolved as a concept and ritual. Prof. John Boswell, the late Chairman of Yale University's history department, discovered that in addition to heterosexual marriage ceremonies in ancient Christian church liturgical documents, there were also ceremonies called the "Office of Same-Sex Union" (10th and 11th century), and the "Order for Uniting Two Men" (11th and 12th century).

My son RAVED about these sandwiches and thinks they're even better than barbecued beef or sloppy Joes! I did add about a half a teaspoon of liquid smoke, but other than that, followed the recipe exactly. A couple of boneless, skinless chicken breasts yielded enough meat to make six sandwiches, so it's economical too. I loved the crunch of the celery. Add a few potato chips and a dill pickle spear on the side and you feel like you're eating in a sandwich shop!

I didn't have onion on hand, so I used chives and garlic powder instead. I also don't care for celery, so I substituted celery seed. I served it with slices of baguette instead of on a bun as well and it was delicious! Will definitely make again!

I'm usually not very picky about my food at all. I love sloppy joes so I thought I might like these. I really was not impressed with the flavor, there was way too much of a sweet taste. I do actually wonder if the sauce would taste better with beef.

I agree; these sandwiches are awesome! The flavor is so good (a little sweet with the brown sugar and a little spicy from the kick of the salsa; perfect combo). Honestly, you don't even need bread or buns to serve this with because the chicken is wonderful by itself. A recipe that I will make often, esp. for my friends who loved it so much.

Best teams in the NFL
#15 Dallas Cowboys
The Cowboys had a good draft and should put together a solid season this year with Romo at QB. They might not win it all, but they should have a winning season that lands them in the playoffs.

Video games - an image from "Super Mario Galaxy 2" is shown - are found in a new study to have positive effects on young dyslexic readers. (Nintendo of America Inc. / Smithsonian American Art Museum) |
Playing action video games could help dyslexic children read faster, a new study suggests.
Neuroscientists from the University of Padua in Italy tested the reading ability of two groups of 10-year-olds after one group had played action video games and the other played non-action video games.
According to the study, published Thursday in Current Biology, playing fast-paced video games helped improve dyslexic children's reading speed more than a year of intense, traditional therapies could. The improvements did not fade with time either, researchers found.
Each group was composed of 10 children who played 80 minutes of video games a day for nine days, equaling 12 hours of play per child.
Their reading skills were measured on a number of factors, including how fast they read words and how accurately they read them. Some words were called pseudo words, meaning they're not actual words in the English language but letters put together that can be read phonetically. For example, the word "dake" would be read like "cake."
Scientists aimed to prove there's a correlation between a dyslexic child's visual attention span and their ability to read.
Action video games are distinguished from non-action video games "by such characteristics as game speed, a high sensory-motor load, and presentation of multiple, peripheral stimuli," the authors wrote. "Action video game players constantly receive both external and internal feedback on their performance, producing learning."
It turned out their assumptions were correct.
Action video game players trounced their non-action peers in improvements. Only action game kids showed general reading improvements, up to 40%. They cut their reading speed almost in half, while non-action readers showed no improvement. The action gamers also improved their basic text reading by as much as 60%, while non-action gamers showed a more modest 5%-10% gain.
Though more study is needed to nail down the specific role that action games play in the improvements, the researchers claimed their data is the start.
"Our findings – supported by results showing that attention can be studied and efficiently trained during infancy – pave the way for low-resource-demanding early prevention programs that could drastically reduce the incident of reading disorders," the authors concluded.
Another study released this week showed playing on a Nintendo Wii helped hone surgery skills.
