Applying xargs
There are some commands that turn out to be more useful than first meets the eye. In my opinion, xargs is one of those commands. It takes the standard input and uses it to build a command line. It's nothing fancy, but it's very handy in some situations.
As soon as you have a list of files, you can easily do something to them. A favorite, common enough to have a shell script of its own on my machine, is clean-titles.sh. It simply locates all backup files using the pattern *~, and then passes them on to rm. The result is a nice and clean current working directory and sub-tree.
#!/bin/sh find -iname '*~' | xargs rm
Do not forget your single quotes around the pattern, otherwise bash might expand it for you.
Another place where xargs comes in handy is when you want to find files based on contents and perform some sort of action on them. For instance, let's locate all those pesky TODO comments and open up those files in kate.
grep TODO -r . | sed 's/:.*//' | sort -u | xargs kate -u
The -u argument to kate ensures that xargs reuses an existing session instead of opening a new window. This is just the way that I prefer to have it, and I even have an alias setup for kate, so that I always used kate -u. However, aliases are not used by xargs, so I have to add the flag explicitly.
Something completely different, but somewhat similar, is the xclip command. In a perfect world, I just might want to give all the TODOs to a colleague. Just replacing xargs with xclip puts all the filenames in the clipboard.
grep TODO -r . | sed 's/:.*//' | sort -u | xclip
Now I only need to add the header before I paste it all into a mail. "Hi, I expect you to complete these by tomorrow!"

Find can execute a grep, no need to pipe to xargs
Find can already do this without piping to xargs:
$ find . -name "*.cc" -print -exec grep {} \;
this can be easily done without using xargs!
grep -r xxx *.cc
Non, since the *.cc is going
Non, since the *.cc is going to be expanded, this will /not/ actually recurse.
my favorite is 'ps -aux |
my favorite is 'ps -aux | grep filename | xargs kill -9' to quickly kill a process
pgrep filename | xargs kill
pgrep filename | xargs kill -9
pkill -9 filename
pkill -9 filename
GNU Parallel
If you like xargs you may like GNU Parallel, too. It does not suffer from the separator problem http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xargs#The_separator_problem
Watch the intro videos to learn more: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpaiGYxkSuQ
Common uses for me: ls
Common uses for me:
ls *.mp4|xargs -i -P4 ./d2.sh {} # convert files for my DMP, and multi-thread it.
ls *.avi|sed s/avi$/mp4/|xargs -i rm {} #remove source files after conversion
ls|grep -v .bz2$|xargs -i -P4 bzip2 {} # multi-thread zipping, but only files that are not already zipped.
Ok now try all them with spaces :-)
These days I had to cope with silly file and directory names full of spaces, just to discover how difficult is trying to work around them by shell commands in a general way. It is not something than can be solved by quoting or using -print0 in find commands or -0 in xargs commands.
I found extremely useful using sed to replace spaces with other chars by send and restore them when required. E.g.
sed -e 's/ /\c@/'
is extremely useful to replace temporarily spaces with NULLs when all other tricks fail.
Hit by the separator problem
It seems you were hit by the separator problem http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xargs#The_separator_problem
You may find GNU Parallel does what you mean without trickery.
Watch the intro videos to learn more http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpaiGYxkSuQ
Avoiding multiple command invocation with find
If you use
find -name search_string -exec command {} +
command is invoked just once with a list of names rather on each match individually. This can speed things up when there are a lot of matches.
Thank you all!
Great to hear all your feedback. There are so many ways to perform this task, it is great to learn how you all do it.
Find is a more versatile tool than first meets the eye and can do much of the tasks described here - it might even deserve a blog of its own.
And for spaces in filenames - who uses that? :-)
Johan Thelin is a consultant working with Qt, embedded and free
software. On-line, he is known as e8johan.
Try working on files created by windows users. Rarely will those have underscores instead of spaces.
Special characters in filenames
But I have yet to see even a Windows user have \n in the file name. That is why \n is the default record separator for GNU Parallel and thus it deals nicely with:
My brother's 12" records
Try it. You might like it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpaiGYxkSuQ
You can also get the same
You can also get the same result with:
find . -name Thumbs.db -exec rm {} \;
Another use of xargs is to replace a string in many files using sed:
find . \( -name "*.php" -or -name "*.html" \) | xargs grep -l StringA | xargs sed -i -e 's/StringA/StringB/g'
What is the difference
What is the difference between :
$ find -iname '*~' | xargs rm
$ rm $(find -iname '*~')
I guess the second one would cause problems when there are spaces in the file names, but according to a previous comment the first one would not work either.
It's also going to fail if
It's also going to fail if you have more than a couple of hundred of file. See ARG_MAX in <linux/limits.h>.
What is the difference
What is the difference between :
$ find -iname '*~' | xargs rm
$ rm $(find -iname '*~')
I guess the second one would cause problems when there are spaces in the file names, but according to a previous comment the first one would not work either.
Both have problems with spacey file names.
The difference is in chunking: xargs accepts "a few" of its input arguments and builds and runs the "rm …" command, then accepts "a few more", runs another command, and so on. If the number of files in the find output is small, there will be no difference at all -- one "rm" command will run. But if the list is very large, the second form will fail because the argument list gets too long.
This is also why "find … | xargs rm" is superior to "find … -exec rm {} \;". The first form does "a few" at a time, while the second form runs one rm command for each file. Again, for few results, no important difference, but for many results, the xargs solution can be much faster.
There are switches to xargs to be more explicit about how many is "a few," but it's pretty rare to actually need to bother with that. By default, xargs does "a lot, but not too many."
Here's a general-purpose
Here's a general-purpose wrapper I use when I want to act on every source file in a directory tree (for example "findsrc.sh | xargs -0 etags" to generate a TAGS file).
> cat findsrc.sh
find . -name .svn -prune -o -name "*test*" -prune -o -name "*stub*" -prune -o -name "*.[ch]" -a -name "*$1*" -print0
The main features are the "-name .svn -prune" and "-name "*.[ch] -a -name "*$1*" -print0" clauses, which avoid descending into .svn directories and return matching c source files respectively, these would probably need to be customized for your project, for example if you use different source control or language.
Might want to mention -print0 and -0
If the file names from the find have spaces, then xargs will see it as two or more files. The easy thing to do is add -print0 to find and -0 to xargs.
How about 'grep -l TODO *
How about 'grep -l TODO * |xargs kate -u' ?
About the find command, the
About the find command, the -delete switch is more handy than this. This won't work if filenames have spaces. Special switches needed for that.

Diatom Research Projects
(Saesneg yn unig)
Dr Ingrid Jüttner, Research Curator Diatoms,
Department of Biodiversity & Systematic Biology
Monitoring recovery of streams from acidification in the Wye catchment
The project Wye Powys Habitat Improvement ScHeme (Wye pHISH) in Mid Wales aims to reverse acidification of streams in the upper Wye and Irfon catchments through liming, to improve ecological quality and facilitate the return of salmonid fish. Biological communities and water chemistry have been negatively affected by acid rain in catchments with conifer forests, and acid sensitive species have been replaced by fewer acid tolerant ones. Scarcity of food and toxic affects have also made acidified streams unsuitable as spawning and nursery areas for fish. Since 2003 a joint science programme led by the Wye & Usk Foundation investigates the effects of liming on biological communities including fish, diatoms, invertebrates and chemical conditions. Diatoms are used as indicators to show changes in water acidity.
Collaborators: The Wye & Usk Foundation; Cardiff University, School of Biosciences; Centre of Ecology and Hydrology, Bangor.
Diatom Flora of Britain and Ireland
The freshwaters and seas of Britain and Ireland have a rich diatom flora. This has been explored by professional and amateur researchers for more than 200 years. Today, reliable identification requires a good knowledge of a vast and scattered literature. We will clarify outstanding problems of taxonomy and nomenclature, and bring together scattered resources in one place. The project aims to make all results, held in a newly designed database, freely available online, as well as publishing them in scientific journals. Initially we focus on species which are important in assessment of water quality, and on rarely reported species which live in habitats of conservation interest.
Collaborators: The Natural History Museum, London; Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh; Bowburn Consultancy; University College London.
Taxonomy, ecology and biogeography of diatoms from subaerial habitats
The project studies diatom diversity and biogeography in subaerial habitats (damp rock faces, soil and mosses) of nordic and alpine geographical areas. It is likely that, due to climate change, these habitats will alter substantially and this will have major consequences for their biological communities and species distribution.
Diatom biodiversity of Nepal
Ecological and taxonomic studies of diatoms in Nepal have been conducted since 1993 and include investigations on streams, rivers, lakes, ponds, springs and subaerial habitats from the tropical lowlands to the high Himalaya. A large scale investigation of stream diatoms extended over a 900 km east-west range and over an altitude gradient of more than 4000 m in the Himalaya of Nepal and north-west India. So far 15 new diatom species and one new genus were described and diatom assemblage change related to major environmental gradients. Current work includes taxonomic and ecological studies on cymbelloid and monoraphid diatoms and on the diatom flora of the Gokyo Valley, Everest National Park, the Annapurna Conservation Area and the Langtang National Park.

any idea if buying a pre-overclocked system is a good idea? Or is it so trivially easy that I'm better doing it myself.
any idea if buying a pre-overclocked system is a good idea? Or is it so trivially easy that I'm better doing it myself.
As long as your warranty isn't void, why not? (You probably have store-warranty, but I have no idea what Intels policy is)
Then again, why bother with overlocking at all, CPU speed is hardly a bottleneck nowadays
A pre overclocked processor doesn't really matter, as as Alex has said, it is pretty easy to do it yourself (a good motherboard can do it automatically, even, and if you want to do it yourself it is simply a case of slecting a decent motherboard and looking up a guide).
Pre overclocked graphics card are a bit different in that regard, as most graphic card manafacturers that produce them usually also go out of their way to use their higher quality chips (for some reason, not all chips are alike, some OC better then others), have a better cooling solution (even less noisy) in their OC'ed models (which is why they are more expensive). You can find OC'ed graphics cards which outperform several more expansive graphic cards whilst having better cooling.
the benefit of pre-overclocked is that the overclock is covered under the warranty. If the system is unstable, then the shop has to fix it.
I can't say that I understand the allure of overclocking. Why add extra electricity, heat, strain, and instability to your valuable PC when you can just spend a little more for parts that are certified to be more powerful? Wouldn't you rather spend an extra $100 to upgrade than $500 replacing broken parts?
That's assuming you're overclocking for the tangible benefits, of course. I think that's a fair assumption if you're considering having a system builder do it for you. If you want to overclock just for the nerdly enjoyment of hardware hacking then by all means go ahead - that's a very rewarding endeavour.
that's because you don't understand why overclocking is possible at all.
It's all about binning. Intel/AMD/nVidia et al make a chip that can run at up to, say, 3000mhz. they get tested for their quality, and are 'speed binned' depending on their sales targets, and what the chip is capable of. They obviously sell more cheaper processors so bin 1000 into the 2GHz category to sell for $200, and then stick 500 in the 3GHz category to sell for $300, but underneath, these chips are intrinsically the same.
That part you just paid more money for 1000mhz extra speed on the core? the processor that is $100 cheaper can hit the same speeds at the same power and heat output because it is the same chip.
My layman's understanding is that they produce batches of chips with a common architecture and test them for stability at different speeds. I had just (naively?) assumed that they grouped batches by stability, rounded it down to the nearest SKU, and branded them accordingly.
I based my advice off this assumption - that you're paying a little more for a chip that is certified stable at the advertised speed.
Are you saying that chips are branded as being certified for speeds much lower than they are actually capable of running stably?
one of the most blatant examples was with the AMD 6970. They released a 6950 which was actually a 6970 which had some of the cores and shaders disabled in software. mental. people were buying up the 6950 and then flashing them with a BIOS from the 6970 to get an extra £50 of performance for £0 outlay.
Going back a bit to when I first started PC building, I got a Pentium D805 and overclocked it from 2.4Ghz to 4Ghz, and managed to get into the top 10 PC systems in the world running Pentiums.... my £80 processor was clocking faster than some £999 pentiums!

Promotes memory and attention
Acetyl-l-carnitine is the acetylated form of l-carnitine, and the two compounds share similar energy and metabolism promoting properties. Found naturally in the body, acetyl- l-carnitine supports the availability of acetyl-CoA, an important energy generating metabolite. In addition, it supports healthy mitochondrial function and cell membrane stability. The acetyl group from acetyl-l-carnitine is also responsible for production of acetylcholine, an important neurotransmitter for optimal mental functioning. The efficacy of long-term acetyl-l-carnitine supplementation was evaluated in a double blind, placebo- controlled, randomized trial involving 130 elderly individuals for a one-year period. In this trial, acetyl-l-carnitine supported healthy cognitive function, memory and attention. In another randomized double blind study, three-month acetyl-l-carnitine supplementation provided statistically significant support for mental function, including memory and attention, compared to placebo. A multicenter trial of 481 volunteers indicated memory, behavioral and emotional support with acetyl-l-carnitine supplementation. In an evaluation of 28 elderly individuals using acetyl-l-carnitine or placebo, the supplemented group experienced enhanced emotional well-being.
Acetyl-l-carnitine enhances cellular energy and neurotransmitter metabolism, supporting memory, emotional health, and cognitive function.

Gianni Burzi, Head of Sales, Albis Technologies talks to Telecoms.com at Broadband World Forum 2011 about the operator migration from TDM to IP and from copper technologies to glass fibre.
With summer supposedly fast approaching, many look to trim some fat and get in shape for the sunny months. The Informer has never been a huge fan of gyms; in fact his favourite machine in the gym is the one that sells chocolate. Telefonica's UK arm O2, is one business that is looking to get lean for the holidays, though, and this week it announced that it is to trim 3,500 UK employees.
Calls for consolidation in the European mobile market grow louder by the week and four-operator markets look increasingly challenged. Now, those mobile operators that have already built scale seem to be suggesting that there is no option but to expand yet further through diversification.
It is testament to Telstra's aggressive approach to mobile broadband that an operator in a country of just over 23 million people should rank in the top ten operators worldwide in terms of LTE subscriber numbers. Mike Wright, Telstra's executive director for networks and access technologies talks to Telecoms.com about the firm's plans for further enhancing its LTE operation with fresh spectrum and LTE-Advanced capabilities.
Jonathan Bell, VP of Marketing at OpenCloud, discusses how policy and pricing are just two dimensions along which telecoms operators can differentiate their propositions. By adding a third dimension, the service behaviour itself, operators can define and bring true innovation to the market that surpasses the traditional approaches of the past, he says.

76ers rookie Moultrie has a shot to start tonight
PHILADELPHIA — With so many new players, potential combinations and newly available minutes, the Sixers were open to any possibility as they prepared for training camp. As they headed Wednesday to Orlando for their preseason opener today, there was this one: A rookie in the starting lineup.
Though Doug Collins would prefer to start veteran Kwame Brown along with Spencer Hawes up front in a two-big-man lineup, it's possible that 6-10, 230-pound Arnett Moultrie will start. That's because mild back spasms cost Brown some practice time this week, including a late-practice scrimmage Wednesday at the PCOM Center.
"I'll be ready for what they need," Moultrie said. "The big thing is defense on the help side — where to be on the court at all times."
Moultrie came to the Sixers from Mississippi State via the Miami Heat, who made him the No. 27 overall selection in the last draft with the intent of moving him immediately, which they did for 45th overall selection Justin Hamilton and a future first-round pick.
With the Sixers, Moultrie has benefited from several developments. One, preferred center Andrew Bynum is injured. Two, Brown has the back issue. And three, Collins wants to audition his big men in combos, and will be careful to align Hawes and Thad Young only with bigger, stronger players.
Since Collins wants to start Hawes, that left Moultrie to fill the potential Brown vacancy, with Young and Lavoy Allen playing the next frontcourt shift, almost hockey style.
"I wasn't sure how much he would get out of training camp," Collins said of Moultrie. "But I liked his energy. And he has been rebounding the ball. His next step is to get better lift on his jump shot, which is a little flat. But I like everything he is doing. I like his recognition. He and Maalik (Wayns) have been very, very special surprises for as well as they have done here early in camp."
Moultrie had reported an earlier ankle problem, but insists he is ready to go.
"I knew that camp would be a lot more intense than college basketball," he said. "But I prepared myself physically for that."
Collins expects Jrue Holiday, Evan Turner, Jason Richardson, Hawes and Brown in his lineup today. Continued...
● ● ●
The Sixers Wednesday waived guard Xavier Silas and forward center Mikki Moore, trimming their roster to 16.
"Xavier did a nice job for us," Collins said. "But the numbers were against him."
Moore, 36, has been bouncing around pro basketball since 1997, and Collins expects him to join the "D" League. If Moore does that, rather than take a job in Europe, the Sixers will continue to keep him in mind should the usual grind require some in-season frontcourt reinforcement.
● ● ●
In a scrimmage Wednesday, Turner played some point guard, even handling the ball while sharing some minutes with Holiday. Turner, Collins said, could be a backup point guard.
"Unless Maalik would slip into that rotation quick," the coach said. "Royal Ivey can play backup point guard. But if we have Dorell Wright out there with Evan, Evan definitely will have to do that and he is capable."
● ● ●
Collins is not worried about Brown's sore back.
"No, it's just a muscle spasm," he said. "What happens in training camp is that guys get beat up. And our big guys really have brought a physical element to our team. They have been active around the basket and there has been contact and it has been fun to see." Continued...
● ● ●
Though NBA training camps are relatively brief, Collins is ready to see his Sixers face unfamiliar competition.
"Yes, I am," he said. "It's like an NFL training camp, when guys get tired of getting hit and banged around by the same guy. It's like being in the seventh game of a playoff series — you are playing that seventh game and you remember that elbow that you got hit with in Game 1. Also from a coaching standpoint, I'd like to see our execution and look at different combinations, along with our defensive presence."
● ● ●
Wayns is looking forward to the possibility of matching up today against former Daily Times Player of the Year Jameer Nelson in a mini-Villanova-Saint Joseph's confrontation.
"I am really excited to play against him," he said. "I think all the guards from Philadelphia play a little bit alike, and I try to learn something from all of them. I have always enjoyed watching Jameer."

With five distinct courses etched into the New England countryside, Sterling Golf Management promotes pin-hunting recreation for Boston-area golfers of all abilities. The longest and most difficult of the four, The Shattuck Golf Club's 18-hole course kicks off with a 409-yard par 4 where players hack their way toward a green that is visually wreathed by the rising red rocks of Mount Monadnock, setting the tone for a scenic, 6,764-yard round. Groves of trees ensconce the fairways and barter over carbon dioxide at Norwood Country Club's recently renovated course, a relatively flat layout characterized by smallish greens and flanked by a lighted driving range. Designed in 1921 in the Donald Ross tradition is Maynard Golf Course, a picturesque par 70, 9-hole course with a full-service clubhouse. The same sylvan makeup returns at Newton Commonwealth's course, where lush tree lines cast shadows over a creek as it snakes across the fairways of seven holes. Rounding out the grassy quartet, Chelmsford's nine-hole course takes golfers careening across 2,467 yards of narrow fairways, placing straight drives or skilled golf ball pilots at a premium.
When Arnold Palmer's architectural firm set out to design the 18-hole course at Gillette Ridge Golf Club, it incorporated a long, wooded layout that would showcase the 19th-century politician and reformer Francis Gillette's original homestead. Today, the course continues to showcase its beautifully crafted layout that has maintained the elegance of a bygone era while opting to share its charming characteristics with the public. Gillette Ridge welcomes all golfers to take on the blistering 7,191-yard tract that integrates groves of mature trees, placid water hazards, and white-sand bunkers that surround contoured greens.
Much of the course's difficulty comes from its length, as demonstrated on the par 5 seventh and 12th holes, which stretch 612 yards and 607 yards from the tips, respectively. Both holes make it nearly impossible to reach the green in two, though for different reasons: the seventh green prevents run-ups with a front side stream, whereas the 12th hole has an early dogleg right that demands more conservative tee shots and golf carts that are pro-environment. The course's premium on distance continues right through the finishing hole, a par 4, 478-yard straightaway that splits two fairway bunkers and forces players to carry the green's front side pond on their approach shot or hope that a friendly frog will lend a lily pad for safe passage. Three practice putting greens, two practice bunkers, and an all-grass driving range provide ample space for golfers to stretch their swings before rounds.
After rounds, players can unwind in Gillette Ridge's 6,000-square-foot clubhouse, where the course restaurant serves up sandwiches such as the philly cheesesteak and chicken-salad sliders, and starters such as Maryland crab cakes and quesadillas—the late Mrs. Gillette's specialty that has carried on since the 19th century.

The nine-hole course at Copper Hill Golf Club is designed to welcome beginners while still challenging advanced golfers, an egalitarian approach that earned it the 2012 Walter Lowell Award for Public Service from the Connecticut Section PGA. Having founded the Golf Academy in 1994 and taken full control of the club in 2010, two-decade PGA pro Paul Banks runs the outfit as a welcoming environment where golfers can both enjoy the game and improve. In line with its emphasis on introducing the game to new players, Copper Hill hosts an extensive youth program, training up duffers as young as 5. Its extensive practice area comprises a 3,500-square-foot pitching and chipping green along with a four-tier driving range, where up to 32 club swingers can hone drives, approaches, and putter-juggling acts on grass tees.

Rolling hills, towering pine trees, and burbling streams convene on Shaker Farms Country Club's 18-hole course as it gently rises and falls across 6,285 yards of bucolic terrain. Golfers must be mindful of a tranquil creek that runs in a wishbone pattern throughout the course, as its rippling waters—which come into play on eight holes—are often camouflaged by grassy banks and waterfowl that snack on errant golf balls. The distinct farmland layout conjures a sense of rustic antiquity, a characteristic furthered by the presence of a dilapidated farmhouse on the par 4 second hole. Clubbers hoping to gain control over runaway swings can warm up at the driving range or tap their spikes together three times to summon seasoned ace Keith Ornelas, who roams the club's verdant hillsides on a never-ending quest to vanquish mulligans once and for all. Alongside its verdant golf course, Shaker Farms boasts tennis courts and a versatile array of dining options.

White pines, hemlocks, and white birches flourish on the 140 acres of New England countryside that golf-course architect Ted Manning—a Robert Trent Jones protégé—and US Women's Open champ Mary Mills sculpted into a championship golf course for Townsend Ridge Country Club. Golfers can leave breadcrumb trails to find their way back as they swing through the forested links, hitting over the stream that splits the 3rd hole's ryegrass fairway before heading uphill on a 474-yard, par-5 12th hole. The course's signature par-4 14th hole demands a cautious approach, as balls that land past the pin find themselves rolling down a steep slope. At last, with the clubhouse in sight, golfers finish up at the 18th by launching their balls over a pond to land on a double green shared with hole 9.
Although it's a daily-fee course, Townsend Ridge creates the feel of a private club with a driving range hemmed by 35 hitting stations and a pro shop that hosts two swing simulators. These let players keep in shape during wintery months by tackling digital recreations of the links at Pebble Beach and St. Andrews. For more structured practice sessions, golfers can join lessons and get professional answers as to what's the best grip for hitting out of the sand and what kind of bird lays golf balls.

The colors in the photo are lighter than those in the actual scarf. The white area is actually yellowish white. The orange is a deeper shade of orange, and the dark blue hexagons are navy rather than purple. It still looks stylish, but has more of a 70's feel than I was hoping for.

BASF unveils new plant for lithium-ion battery material in Elyria
ELYRIA — Federal, state, county and city officials joined together yesterday in Elyria to celebrate the grand opening of BASF's new production plant that will produce cathode materials used in lithium-ion batteries. The batteries will power full electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles.
"What a great day," Mayor Holly Brinda said to the crowd." "This is the kind of event a mayor likes."
Representatives from the U.S. Department of Energy, Argonne National Laboratory and about 150 BASF employees attended the event at the plant's 120 Pine St. facility.
Construction of the new plant was an investment of more than $50 million and was supported by a $24.6 million grant from the DOE. BASF was selected as one of only two licensed suppliers of cathode materials. The new four-story, 70,000-square-foot plant will create about 20 full-time positions in Elyria, according to Brinda. The operation is supported by BASF battery materials research laboratories in Beachwood.
Materials that will be produced at the plant will be used by BASF's customers to produce the advanced lithium-ion batteries. The batteries will drive the vehicles into the next generation.
Frank Bozich, president of the catalysts division, said he remembered when they sat down years ago to see what it would look like.
"You guys (Elyria) have exceeded our expectations in the way you executed this product," Bozich said.
The Elyria facility is the most versatile and a milestone for the city and the state, he said. The facility will become a focal point in creating advanced materials in electromobility and Elyria will become a global leader in battery materials, he added.
"We are proud of the work we are doing in Elyria," he said.
Hans Engel, chairman and CEO of BASF corporation, said that the company generates $100 billion in sales globally. In 2050, the Earth's population will reach nine billion people and will use three times the energy the Earth can provide. He said they need to be thinking of other ways to use energy. Electromobility will play an important role and will have a small environmental footprint. Continued...
"There will be ups and downs in electromobility ... but we will invest for a sustainable future," Engel said.
Dave Howell, of the DOE, said that after the recovery act, 35 new plants sprouted up for battery production. He said BASF is one of 10 companies that received the grant and this grant will help move electric vehicles.
"But, of course, this is the first milestone of many more to come," Howell said.
Howell told attendees he is looking forward to seeing the first set of materials shipped out.
Senator Sherrod Brown said the plant is an example of a partnership between federal government and a local community. He added that the auto industry is taking off and Ohio is the number three auto industry manufacturing state in the country.
"We're thrilled with this expansion and partnership with BASF," Brown said of the more than 100-year-old company.
Brinda said if they capitalize on the plant, it will be able to attract more green jobs and high tech companies in the future.
"Elyria's workforce will benefit from this $500 million dollar expansion," Brinda said.
Zach Wyeland, who works at the plant, said that the Elyria plant is not making the final product citing that another company will need to assemble the battery.
"This is just a puzzle piece," Wyeland said.

Happy Birthday Cupcakes

I am wanting to try it but with the frosting too! Do you have a cake frosting recipe?

Hi Melissa,
Try the recipe for Laura's cinnamon frosting for these. You can also change the flavor of that frosting by changing the ingredients. For example, substitute cocoa for the cinnamon. They're really yummy! - May 6, 2010 at 5:05 PM
- SarahB said...
I'm hopping over from Cybele Pascal's site. These cupcakes look almost perfect for my little guy! Thank you! Do you think they might work with an additional 1/2 cup of applesauce instead of the sweet potato puree? Or maybe some other apple form that's less runny? His options are pretty limited. I will be playing with this recipe for sure! :)
- August 27, 2011 at 8:07 PM
- Kim and Megan said...
Hi SarahB,
I think you could increase the applesauce and it would be ok. Maybe use slightly less than you would with the sweet potato. You could also use pumpkin puree if that's ok for your little guy. Let us know how it goes, please! - August 28, 2011 at 10:57 AM
i just made these and the tops got crispy and brown (almost look overdone) and the middle isn't quite done. I have a fairly new oven and feel it's rather powerful...should I try baking at 350 instead?

Hi Kathryn,
I'm sorry that happened. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I think you're probably right that it if you lower the temp it might work better for you. Please let me know. - April 15, 2012 at 1:42 PM
yes, I will let you know! I am definitely going to try these agin as the outsides of them are DELICIOUS! thanks.

text: The Show Catwalk Fashion Shows Autumn/Winter 2010-11 Ready-To-Wear Doo Ri 12 February 2010 Lauren David Peden DOO.RI CHUNG is famous for her use of jersey, and while she didn't abandon her favourite fabric for autumn/wintwr 2010, there was just as much emphasis placed on tailoring - with the main focus being the play between what she called "mixed medium objects". "I wanted to explore the idea of incongruent things that come together to form the whole," Chung told VOGUE.COM after her show at Eyebeam Gallery Friday night. "I love pairing something hard with something soft."This "one of these things is not like the other" message came through loud and clear in a sharply tailored navy jacket with a swag of jersey that draped languidly over slim matching pants. This sensual swag also appeared in a military-inspired shirtdress, while several slouchy jersey tops – in black, geranium and graphite – added a touch of softness to the skinny snap-side military pants with which they were worn.Elsewhere, the designer used "aggressive" Swarovski crystals to add structure to the sides of a drape-front sheath, and these bold sparklers also encircled a slim geranium skirt.While a few of the slouchy, full-legged suits were a bit too generously proportioned, things got back on track with a sequin tank dress whose print resembled a gorgeous pile of glittering muddy leaves, and the two perfectly spare suede gowns that closed the show would make a terrific option for any woman who wants her personality to be the only thing that shines through on an evening out.SEE THE DOO.RI CHUNG SHOW ARCHIVE

Could Pot Be Legal in Missouri, Ever?
Colorado and Washington voters said yes to measures to legalize marijuana. Could it ever happen here? Petitions have been circulated in University City and elsewhere in the Show-Me State. Would you support it?
On the heels of ballot initiatives in Colorado and Washington that successfully legalized recreational use of pot by its residents, could it happen here in the Show-Me State? A petition drive to put it on the Nov. 6 ballot obviously failed, in spite of efforts around the state to get enough signatures. Activitists brought the drive to The U City Loop in February and the Eureka branch of the St. Louis Public Library in March. Informal polls on Eureka-Wildwood Patch and University City Patch showed overwhelming support for legalization. But, of course, they're self-selecting polls, not scientific. Most of us probably missed the Nov. 3 conference on the subject of legalizing pot in Missouri, hosted by the Show-Me Cannabis organizers. A study…

Step 1: Get the Stuff
1 2N3904 Transistor (experiment with what you have around, it will probably work)
1 9V battery
1 9V battery holder
20 IR LED's
As far as tools go here is what I used:
soldering Iron + solder
desoldering pump
hobby knife
wire cutters/strippers
If you dont have the TV-B-Gone already you can get one at the Make Store: http://makezine.com/store/
1-40 of 247 | Next » |
Perhaps my TV B Gone unit is different but as standard the IR LED positive terminal is connected to the positive of the battery and it appears to be the negative side of the IR LED that is switched to turn it on and off.
If as you suggest the positive side of the IR LED is connected to the base of a 2N3904 (npn transisotor) with the emitter connected to 0V there willl be 9V across the base-emitter junction. It will therefore be on all the time or at least until it blows which shoudn't take long as a typical npn can only support about 0.7V (one diode drop) across the base-emitter.
Am I missing something??
what you do is that you make a ring of thes irleds in a ring around the camera
My pinky is tired.
I built a TV-B-Gone using an Arduino and 6 3W IR star LED's with lenses. I could turn off TV's from down the street if they happened to have their windows open :D
Whats a 'Star LED' btw?
And of course you can always ask Google for more info on the 3W IR LED's

Welcome to the Department of Biomedical and Chemical Engineering! We offer a vibrant learning environment that emphasizes discovery, innovation and scholarship to the Inquisitive. Browse the page for information on our degree programs, faculty research interests and transformative
research projects
underway in the Department. If an image or snippet sparks your interest or imagination, we do encourage you to follow up!
The College of Engineering and Computer Science at SU is in a phase of strategic growth under the dynamic leadership of Dean Laura Steinberg. The Department of Biomedical and Chemical Engineering has added five new faculty members in the past four years, including a new chairperson, a chaired professor and three assistant professors. Among other things, this has helped us achieve critical mass and enhanced visibility in the biomaterials area and establish the Syracuse Biomaterials Institute. A search is currently underway to hire an assistant professor with focus on sustainable energy studies. We plan to nucleate and nurture a crosscutting cluster in this area by establishing synergistic partnerships with other colleges within SU and SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry. These efforts will make critical contributions towards accomplishing the University's goal to flourish into an internationally recognized hub of scholarship in the areas of life sciences and sustainable development.
Undergraduate Studies:
The Department offers BS programs in bioengineering and chemical engineering. Both of the undergraduate programs are accredited by ABET. The number of undergraduate students has increased significantly in recent years: we had 74 entering students in 2009. The two programs now share courses in engineering science. This allows for the appreciation of the fundamentals in a broader context and promotes interdisciplinary interactions among students. A number of our students gain hands on research experience by participating in faculty research.

Graduate Studies:
The Department has a lively graduate student body that consists of
nearly 90
students with one half of them pursuing doctoral degrees. The graduate programs have been revised so that both programs now have 30 credit MS degrees and 42 credit PhD degrees. By lowering the credit requirements, we expect our PhD students to be able to devote more time for their research and thus be able to complete their degrees sooner. Click on

AKCHO was established to encourage cooperation among historical organizations and to promote and encourage the study and preservation of the history and heritage of King County through member organizations, individual members, and the community they serve, and to support such preservation efforts through public awareness and understanding of legislative issues.
By LawsSelf-AssessmentWorkshop: Building a Plan For The Future
In accordance with goals set forth at the board's long-range planning meeting October 22, 2005, the AKCHO board's Advocacy Committee met Feb. 2, 2006 to discuss the year's advocacy agenda. The agenda focuses heavily on "revenue for heritage," a major goal for AKCHO identified in the planning meeting. Advocacy Committee members also expressed a strong desire to build stronger relationships to 4Culture to encourage the work of Charles Payton, Flo Lentz, and other key heritage and preservation supporters in the organization. The committee also wished to continue work in support of preservation of Seattle's Central Waterfront and preservation and heritage issues as they arise throughout the year.
Develop a stronger AKCHO relationship to 4Culture that supports the heritage and preservation program managers (currently Charles Payton and Flo Lentz). The intent of these activities is to raise the profile of heritage and preservation work within 4Culture. Specific activities include, but are not limited to:
Explore ideas for creating a new sustainable fundraising mechanism for King County heritage and preservation activities. By the end of the year, the committee should present three to five general ideas or models for discussion and further action. Specific activities during 2006 include, but are not limited to:
Continue with advocacy activities related to creation of a city landmark district and national historic district focused on the historic waterfront piers.
Letters of support, public meeting attendance, and lobbying as opportunities arise.
The following items were discussed and tabled as potential future advocacy projects.
Presentation of the agenda to the full AKCHO board for approval

The Harlan County Fiscal Court discussed the need for a new garbage packer during a recent meeting.
Harlan County Judge-Executive Joe Greishop asked Harlan County Solid Waste Coordinator Lakis Mavinidis for some information concerning a new packer.
"They are working on that current packer constantly," said Grieshop. "We had asked you to go ahead and look at some sizing and potential specifications, and then if we agree, we can vote to go to a reverse bidding process with KACo (Kentucky Association of Counties)."
Mavinidis updated the court on his progress.
"I have called three different truck makers and given them the information they need as to what we do with the packer and by the weekend they should give us the information as to what a truck like that would cost and how long it would take to get one," said Mavinidis.
"You don't have any specs today?" inquired Grieshop.
"The specs that we have would be anything from a 16- to a 20-yard packer," said Mavinidis. "The packer that we have now is an older packer it may be a 20-yarder, but we may could do the same job with a 16-yarder if we had a packer that picks up the material and is a smaller truck. We tried to stay with a packer that would be under a CDL license if possible but if not then we will have to do what's necessary."
According to Mavinidis, there are advantages with using a smaller truck.
"The smaller the packer the easier it is to get in and out of locations. It makes it safer to back it in and out, so that's what we're looking at," said Mavinidis. "They gave me some information about what it could cost, but because it's one of those bidding processes it's hard to say how much it would be."
Mavinidis pointed out he did not have enough information to give an exact cost.
"They can't tell us what truck to get until they see what size packer they can put on the truck," said Mavinidis. "Certain auto makers will not allow a certain size packer on a specific size truck. So that has to be determined before you can decide which one to get."
"This is an expenditure which will help generate money, " said Grieshop. "We're spending so much money on repairs on the other one, I don't know if you have any figures, but it's adding up to be quite a bit. We all know when you have a car that gets older, you put more money into it than it's worth and that's the point we've reached."
"If we do agree to go to KACo we would have to give them the spec information before they would do it. They would take it from there, they would give us the advertisement to put in the paper then they would do the reverse bidding. All the companies around that were interested would keep bidding down and down until each had reached their lowest point," explained Grieshop.
According to Mavinidis, a new packer would cost in the area of $75,000 to $100,000.
A motion was passed to use the KACo reverse bidding process for a cardboard packer for the recycling center.

The Scoop® Single-Serve Coffeemaker goes where no coffeemaker has gone before, brewing hotter, faster and better-tasting coffee than most gourmet machines out there. And, its benefits don't stop there. The Scoop® Coffeemaker utilizes the simplicity of ground coffee and brews a customizable cup quickly: an 8 oz. cup in less than 90 seconds or a 14 oz. travel mug in under two-and-a-half minutes.
Aside from its versatility in using inexpensive coffee grounds to brew a great-tasting cup, The Scoop® Coffeemaker is designed for ultra-simple preparation in three straightforward steps: 1) Scoop 2) Place 3) Brew. It features a steel mesh scoop for filtering freshly ground coffee and comes with a built-in, adjustable stand that flips to accommodate a standard-size cup or a taller travel mug.
All in all, The Scoop® Single-Serve Coffeemaker offers affordability and no fuss with lots of options. There's no need for extra equipment, high-tech buttons or extra equipment, either.
Product features:
Costs pennies per cup, compared to leading competitor's single-size packs
Proportions coffee exactly with single-serve scoop filter
Bews an 8oz cup of coffee in less than 90 seconds
Built-in adjustable stand holds standard-size cup and taller travel mugs
Two steel mesh scoop filters included: No need for paper filters
Wide drip tray on base acts as a spill-resistant drain for excessive coffee
Settings for REGULAR (auto drip) and BOLD coffee
Durable, stainless steel features ensure coffeemaker's longevity
Automatically shuts off after brewing
Product Use & Unique Features
Allowing for Various Coffee Grind Types The Scoop® Coffeemaker doesn't need pre-packaged K-Cup® packs or coffee pods, which can get expensive, and not to mention stale, over time. Instead, it comes with a mesh scoop filter that gives users the choice of any flavor (caramel, hazelnut, vanilla, etc), any brand (Starbucks™, Dunkin Donuts™, etc.) and any strength (Regular or Bold) pleasing to their taste.
Differing Boldness Levels With The Scoop® Coffeemaker, versatility is key. Whether you decide to go with a mainstream brand coffee or stronger premium-brand coffee, you need a machine that understands and quickly adapts. Use the REGULAR setting for a quick basic, automatic drip coffee, or get an upgrade and choose BOLD for more fine grinds, decaf or stronger flavors premium-brand coffee like Starbucks™ or Melitta™. Just remember that the finer the grind, the longer it takes to brew. For bolder coffee, the water passes through at a slower rate, but allows more contact time and better flavor extraction for a better-tasting cup when done brewing.
Measuring Proportions Appropriately Not sure how much coffee to add when brewing? No worries — each scoop filter is labeled with two measuring lines for exact serving amounts. And more isn't necessarily better, in this case. Overfilling the scoop doesn't allow room for brewing and water can overflow and spill over, ultimately meaning weaker coffee.
Adjusting the Cup Size Before brewing, adjust the L-shaped cup rest to make sure your cup is as close to the dispensing nozzle as possible. For travel mugs, fit the cup rest against the coffeemaker and place your mug on top of the drip tray.
Easy Dishwasher Cleanup Unlike leading coffeemakers with confusing attachments and high-tech buttons, The Scoop® Coffeemaker has only three removable parts—a scoop filter, a secondary filter and a cup rest—and all are dishwasher safe. For consistent trouble-free maintenance, it should be cleaned internally once a month, by pouring ½ cup plain white vinegar and ½ cup cold water into the water reservoir, brewing and then running 2 to 3 cycles of cold tap water before making coffee.
Award-Winning Design The Scoop® Coffeemaker was awarded the 2012 Good Housekeeping Very Innovative Products (VIP) Award by Good Housekeeping Research Institute. In addition, the Industrial Designers Society of America (IDSA) gave it high rankings for its ability to use coffee grinds, instead of packs or pods, and simultaneously give users the freedom to choose their own flavor, strength and cup size for their coffee.
