1. Pincombe Charts, original One-Name Study at the Guild of One-Name Studies
These Pincombe Charts were created by the two researchers in the original One-name-study at the Guild of one-name-studies. I reprint them with the thought in mind that others could add to the knowledge of these charts. I have reworked some of them and will publish that information when complete. I am republishing the North and South Molton chart as it is referred to in the Will of John Pincombe of South Molton.
These tables represent many years of work at the record offices and Richard Pinkham was a physician and able to make contact with some of the Pincombe families living in Devon. The names seen on these charts usually in the top corners are individuals who provided information for that particular chart. I do remind other researchers that there are discrepancies in these charts and I would appreciate knowing of any that you may find so that eventually a corrected chart will be published.

John Pincombe in this will names his wife as Amie Pincombe, his son as John Pincombe and that his father is still living. He says that he is a merchant at South Molton, Devon.
The North Molton and South Molton chart produced by the original researchers at the Guild of one name study has been published in Pincombe-Pinkham newsletter Volume 1 Issue 4: http://kippeeb.blogspot.ca/2016/09/pincombe-pinkham-newsletter-volume-1.html
And republished in this issue. The link for this particular chart since it is impossible to actually read the chart from the newsletter: http://www.kipp-blake-families.ca/Chart1-2.jpg
This chart names this particular John Pyncombe as the husband of Amy Dodridge. It gives a year of birth for John Pyncombe of 1575 and that they have a son John Pincombe born circa 1596 and that he was buried circa 1665 and had married Mary Carew. It also names his sister as Helen baptized 29 Mar 1577 at Chittle Hampton and that the father of these children was Richard Pincombe who married circa 1574. He in turned being named as a son of John Pincombe born circa 1526 at South Molton and again being the son of a John Pincombe born circa 1501 at South Molton with a brother Christopher also born at South Molton. Both of these children are named as the sons of John Pyncombe. This John Pyncombe is said to have a brother Thomas Pyncombe born circa 1481 who lived at North Molton and Filleigh and was the father of William Pyncombe born circa 1506 and married to (unknown) Snowe (lived at East Buckland and North Molton). Both of these children named as son of an (unknown) Pyncombe who lived at North Molton. I would only mention that the Thomas Pyncombe who lived at North Molton and Filleigh is presumed to be my ancestor and has been discussed earlier so will leave any discussion on this individual to another time.
Returning to the testator, John Pincombe and I would mention that I have not been able to find his will online at the Record Office. I downloaded it in 2006 and probably have not looked for it online anytime since then.
Do I agree with the line that is given to the testator? If I look at the tax records for Pincombe/Pencombe/Pyncombe in the 1500s I discover the following:
The Tax Rolls for Devon 1544-1545 have 9 Pencombe/Pincombe/Pinkcombe/Pynkeham listings including
Alice (widow of Thomas) Pencombe North Molton Parish £5
Christopher Pyncombe South Molton Parish £10
John Pencombe North Molton Parish £4
John Pyncombe South Molton Parish £13
Philip Pynkeham Tawstock Parish £8
Richard Pencombe Bedeford Parish £5
Richard Pencombe Kings Nympton Parish £1
Thomas Pencomb Estbuclond Parish (East Buckland) £9
William Pencombe North Molton Parish £6
This does not yield the expected Richard Pincombe as found by the earlier researchers at South Molton with son John Pincombe (grandson John Pincombe) and daughter Helen Pincombe. The only two Richard Pincombes are at Bideford and Kings Nympton. At South Molton there is a John Pyncombe and a Christopher Pyncombe. As I reconstructed the family tree I suggest that John and Christopher are brothers (and more discussion on the other Pincombe families found in the taxes another time.
The Tax Subsidy for 1581 lists 12 Pincombe heads including
Annis Pincombe (widow) Alwington Parish £4
Christopher Pincombe South Molton Parish £4
Edward Pencombe Tawstocke Parish £5
Emma Pyncombe (widow) North Molton Parish £3
John Pincombe South Molton Parish £4
John Pincombe (senior) South Molton Parish £12
John Pincomb (Esquire) Broadwood Kelleigh Parish £9
Richard Pincombe Bideford Parish £6
Richard Pincombe Yearnescombe Parish £3
Richard Pincombe Abbotsham Parish £8
William Pencombe East Buckland Parish £10
___therin Pincombe (widow) Bideford Parish £2
By 1581 (almost fourty years later) one finds at South Molton a Christopher Pincombe, a John Pincombe and a John Pincombe (senior). John Pincombe senior holds three times as much wealth as the other two Pincombes named. At this point I have made the assumption that John Pincombe (senior) was perhaps the John Pincombe found on the 1543-44 subsidy. Are John and Christopher both his sons or are they Christopher's sons or each of these earlier men has left a son each. The wealth does tend to make one wonder if both are the sons of Christopher perhaps now deceased. But it is interesting that there is not a Richard Pincombe holding land at South Molton in 1543-44 or 1581.
Who is the testator? He is likely part of the Pincombe family that descends from the earlier Pincombe at North Molton. One can conclude that given the proximity. He has property at George Nympton and that particular parish in 1581 has few entries paying subsidy: Philip Dobbe, Richard Greade, Richard Colman, Philip Beare, Agnes Harrys (widow), Mary Pearce (widow) and Philip Bennet. But this is another 12 years hence so one can not be positive about such a statement being true in 1593.
From the Devon Visitations of 1620, the following can be gleaned:
An Unknown Pyncombe (living at Northmolton) had come with the Lord Zouch about the beginning of the reign of Henry VII (1485) and that he married and had three sons Thomas (lived at Filleigh and later East Buckland), John and an (unknown) Pyncombe. Looking only at John Pyncombe the chart shows that he had sons John Pyncombe and Christopher Pyncombe both of Southmolton and each of them had a son John. That John Pyncombe (great nephew to Christopher Pyncombe) married Amy daughter of Richard Doddridge. John and Amy had a son John Pyncombe who lived at Southmolton and was a student in the Middle Temple, London and was living in 1620.
The Visitation is generally thought to be accurate and this particular one was signed by William Pyncombe of Southmolton and East Buckland who had married Temperance Pollard. William was a Coroner in the County of Devon.
Given the information from the taxes and the Visitation the present testator would appear to be John Pyncombe son of John Pyncombe. Since the time frame on this chart is completed in 1620 and John the last mentioned Pyncombe in this line was a student in the Middle Temple and by his father's will alive in 1593 then he was born by 1593 although could be earlier but 27 is a reasonable age to be a student of the Middle Temple. That would give a birth year approximately to his father of 1560 to early 1570s although could be earlier. Then his father John would be born circa 1540s to 1550s and that could also be earlier. That John is known to be the son of John Pyncombe whose father came to Northmolton in 1485. His possible year of birth then 1510 to 1520 but could have been earlier. That giving a year of birth to the son of the unknown Pyncombe arriving 1485 or later of 1490 to 1500 or earlier. This fits into a nice pattern and does match the Visitation and reasonable years of birth. In the 1540s tax subsidy there was a Christopher Pyncombe and a John Pyncombe in South Molton. These men would need to be at least 21 years of age at that time which would have one looking at the grandsons of the unknown Pyncombe arriving in 1485 or later and the sons of the same Pyncombe. I have opted to think that the men on the tax subsidy are the grandsons. Plus Alice (widow of Thomas Pencombe) is living in 1544 and perhaps she points to the name of the founder of the Pencombe family of North Molton as being Thomas. It is known he had a son Thomas who better fits into being the husband of Johane Pencombe whose will was blogged in Volume 1, Issue 1.
The Dodderidge family members mentioned in the will Pentecost, John, Joane and Dorothy were all siblings of his wife Amy Dodderidge Pincombe.
More later on this line of the family but the ancestral line I believe of this John Pincombe, the testator has now been established.
3. Autosomal DNA Study
The entire Pincombe DNA study at FT DNA includes 19 members of whom 12 have taken the Family Finder Test.
I continue to have matches that have proven to be most interesting in my Pincombe family line but primarily these new matches are in the line of the wife of my 2x great grandfather John Pincombe (emigrated to Canada in 1850/51).
I am still not yet ready to discuss the yDNA Pincombe-Pinkham family study.

Vigor completes repower of AMHS ferry
August 29, 2014—Naval architecture and marine engineering firm Elliott Bay Design Group (EBDG) reports that the repower of the M/V Columbia, the Alaska Marine Highway System's flagship vessel, has been completed. EBDG provided design services and ongoing owner support services for the ferry's repower, which was performed by Vigor Marine's Portland, OR, shipyard. The repower included replacing all ancillary equipment to the engines.

There's a limit to how many blazers, jeans or T-shirts every wardrobe needs. If you've got the right fits and styles, your collection can last you over several seasons. But if I were writing an essay that called for a thesis, I would argue that you can never have too many accessories. There's no cap to the number of bangles, studs, rings or pendants one needs; from vintage finds to family gems and even that costume jewelry that gets you by, I truly believe that no one is ever completely satisfied with their collection. I'd probably cite Rachel Zoe, Mary-Kate Olsen and Olivia Palermo as my sources here.
For us apartment-jumping, city-moving, traveling, never style-compromising ladies, it can be very challenging to keep our jewels in order. Even those drawer-organizers that we were so proud to purchase are now cluttered, dirty and basically serving no purpose at all. Here comes that essay-writing again, I bring you, my solution: accessories as decor. If we're willing to use these items to adorn our bodies, then why not have them serve a double purpose as home furnishings?
Not only will you be able show off your latest finds, but keeping your jewels in sight will force you to keep them somewhat in order. Here are some easy steps to accessory organization, with the help of my very own possessions and those small things that help me keep them presentable.
1. De-clutter:
2. Hang:
3. Reinvent:
4. Do the obvious:
All in all, it should be second nature to keep some of our most precious pieces in safe and orderly spots, but we're not all perfect, and we don't always keep these things high on our priority list. If you've got a free afternoon, spend some time sifting through your accessories; you may just find something hidden under the dust and the lone earrings, that you never knew you had. In conclusion (final essay component), there's nothing better than adding a bit of organization to your daily routine, and I would suspect that your styling habits will grow as a result!
If you liked this post, you'll like this one about the girls' jewelry boxes too. Can you tell I have a thing for accessories? I
definitely absolutely guess I do.

Scientists discover space dust in white cliffs of Dover
Researchers believe findings could help explain events before Earth was created.
Space dust has been found in the white cliffs of Dover, and scientists believe it could help with space exploration in the future and explain events before Earth was created.
The iconic white cliffs are an important source of fossils for scientists, enabling them to understand the changes and upheavals the planet has gone through millions of years ago.
The fact that researchers from Imperial College London have discovered space dust alongside the ancient creatures, means that they may now be able to better understand what was happening in our solar system at the time.
- Where does cosmic dust come from?
Space dust particles are the pulverised remains of asteroid and comet collisions in our solar system.
Although around 20,000 to 30,000 tonnes of cosmic dust falls to Earth every year and is everywhere, given its size it is difficult to locate.
- What do the team's findings mean?
In another study by the same team, the scientists say they have discovered a way for working out if the cosmic dust was clay rich.
Clay can only form if water is present and if it is found to have been present in space dust, then it could suggest the presence of water-rich asteroids.
The researchers hope that in the future asteroids could provide space explorers with stop-offs during long journeys.
Dr Matt Genge, lead author from the College's Department of Earth Science and Engineering, explained the significance of this: "Being able to source water is vital because it can be used to drink, to make oxygen and even fuel to power spacecraft.
"The relevance of our study is that cosmic dust particles that land on Earth could ultimately be used to trace where these water-rich asteroids may be, providing a valuable tool for mapping this resource."
The team have also discovered a way in which less well preserved space dust can be examined.
- How can cosmic dust lead to water?
When cosmic dust enters Earth's atmosphere it can reach extreme heats of more than 600C (1,112F), causing the original mineral content to transform into glass and crystals.
This heat also vaporises any water.
By analysing past studies, Dr Genge and his team worked out that shattered pieces of olivine crystals contained in cosmic dust suggest that water was once present.
This is because the loss of water from the interior of the particle when it vaporises has a cooling effect, meaning that there is an extreme difference in temperature between the surface and core of the particles, causing the olivine crystals to shatter due to the stresses cause by the differences in expansion.
Dr Genge has calculated that 75% of cosmic dust which lands on Earth contains olivine crystals, suggesting the clay content, and therefore water content, of asteroids and comets are high.
- How was the space dust discovered?
The fossilised cosmic dust was spotted in chalk samples from the cliffs due to their their distinctive spherical structure and Christmas tree-like shape of their crystal content.
- What's next for the team?
Now that the team know that clay-rich asteroids may be abundant, their next step will be trying to find them.
The scientists will compare infra-red radiation from cosmic dust and asteroids to try and match the two.

The BFIS Sponsor Process has three steps:
This is the checklist to walk you through the BFIS Sponsor process.
This tutorial is a review of the orientation BFIS Sponsors receive.
An organization or individual becomes a BFIS Sponsor of professional development, only after a person from that organization receives an orientation and signs an agreement with Northern Lights. Only the individual who received the orientation may act as the BFIS Sponsor for that organization. The BFIS Sponsor is responsible for alerting Northern Lights of any changes in contact information or personnel in order to maintain their status as a BFIS Sponsor.
BFIS Sponsors can access a PASSWORD PROTECTED BFIS Sponsor page. NOTE this password is given by Northern Lights staff to these special sponsors. It is NOT the password you would use to get into your BFIS account.
BFIS Sponsors:
1. Provide complete training information for posting into the BFIS Course Calendar. (see side bar)
Use the BFIS Course Calendar Submission Form (type in) form to be sure that you have included all of the details that will help providers search and register for trainings. Follow the directions to submit information for posting.
2. Provide Documentation of Professional Development forms for each activity that you sponsor. (sent to you by email)
Professionals need these forms for their personal records. Copies are often required when they apply for certification, licensing and credentialing. For security reasons, blank copies of the Documentation of Professional Development Form are available only to Sponsors. They can be accessed by contacting the Vermont Northern Lights Career Development Center to receive a Sponsor Orientation.
Professional development activities should align with Vermont's Core Competencies for Early Childhood or Afterschool Professionals. Indicate the Core Knowledge Areas and Subheadings on each DPD Form. Also CDA and Agency of Education teacher standards should be noted.
3. Use and submit a BFIS-friendly Attendance Form. (on the BFIS Sponsor Password protected page)
- Add the training title, date and time to each page.
- Have participants add their name, mailing address, phone number and e-mail address so that Northern Lights staff can regularly update contact information within the BFIS system.
- Have participants add their current employer, which helps Northern Lights staff to find them in a database that includes thousands of names!
- There is a BFIS Credential number attached to every professional development account within the BFIS system. Have participants include their BFIS Credential number on the attendance sheet so that Northern Lights staff can quickly access their account and accurately enter the training into it.
Send completed attendance forms by email to email@example.com If they are readable, you can also FAX them to Northern Lights @ 802-828-2805 Or mail to BFIS Attendance c/o Northern Lights. CCV – PO Box 489 Montpelier, VT. 05601

September 4, 2015 | by City of Hope
Going to medical school in her native Poland, Anna Pawlowska, M.D. wasn't sure what field of medicine she wanted to study until her second year of residency. But after spending time with a pediatric oncologist, she knew that was the field for her.
"I wanted to be a pediatrician because the kids are really a central part of families and our life; they are the future of our society," said Pawlowska, now director of the Pediatric Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation at City of Hope. When a child is diagnosed with cancer, she said, "it's not just the child that's involved, it's the whole family, friends, teachers, neighbors, the church…the whole neighborhood is affected."
She joined City of Hope in 2000, moving to California specifically for the opportunity to work at an institution with the atmosphere and approach that she considers ideal. She had already spent a year in Japan and had completed a pediatric residency at the University of Colorado and a fellowship and stint at Minneapolis Children's Hospital's hematology/oncology program.
At City of Hope, she found what she was seeking -- an environment "where we can serve our patients the best with utmost compassion."
One of City of Hope's great advantages is that many specialists from different fields are involved in patient care, said Pawlowska.
"We have a multi-disciplinary team, including social workers, psychologists, physical therapists, recreational therapists, and pet therapists, for example." This team is critical, she said, because to the patients and families coming in, the diagnosis of cancer has been a devastating shock.
"Their world has turned upside down, and we realize that this is the time when they need a lot of support," she said. Once Pawlowska and the team work with the patients to develop a plan of action, "it's easier for them to adjust and deal with the treatment because they know what's happening. They know the diagnosis, they have information, they can ask questions and be a part of the plan."
"I feel privileged to be involved in the lives of the families in their hardest times and also to share their courage, dedication and joy of cure."
The focus of Pawlowska's program – bone marrow transplantation – is reserved for the patients with very aggressive malignant diseases, offering a potential for cure that cannot be achieved by chemotherapy alone. Transplantaion also provides the potential to cure chronic, non-malignant diseases such as sickle cell disease and thalassemia. "Our pediatric Stem Cell Transplant Program allows the patients access to new, innovative, live saving treatments and provides excellent standard of care," Pawlowska said.
Like many physicians at City of Hope, Pawlowska is determined to improve care nationwide, not only through her standard-setting work at the cancer center but through her impact on other institutions. She serves as an auditor, for example, for the Children's Oncology Group, a national organization that focuses on pediatric cancer treatment. "I audit different hospitals and their clinical trials, making sure the patients are safe and that the clinical trials are conducted properly," she said.
Pawlowska also serves as the chair of the Data Safety Monitoring Committee at City of Hope, which helps ensure patient safety in the clinical trials that ultimately advance care for all patients.
In her precious spare time, Pawlowska takes advantage of the numerous activities California provides, including biking and visiting museums. "I love reading and doing anything with water, like snorkeling," she said, laughing. "I could live under the water for a long time."

At an automotive dealership, the Business Manager is the expert that keeps everything running smoothly. They may manage just car sales operations, or alternatively they may also oversee a mechanic's garage. Regardless, they must master a high level of auto knowledge, while being aware of all the rules and regulations governing the sale and transfer of motor vehicles. This includes financial regulations, rules governing the transfer of title, and the rules regarding the mandatory insurance that vehicles and drivers both must have.
A dealership may be part of a franchise or privately owned, and cater to a specific car manufacturer and their brands, or sell and lease used vehicles. In addition to cars, some may sell trucks, farming equipment or recreational vehicles such as skidoos or ATVs.
Additionally, a Business Manager need to be adept at sales and customer service, and have the people skills to keep everyone on their team happy and working hard. It's a leadership role, and a successful Business Manager has to understand all the facets of the other auto careers at a dealership to make sure each department is working to capacity.
Departments under their oversight can include:
• Auto Sales and Leasing
• Parts and Warehousing
• Auto Service Operations
• Customer Service
• Advertising and Marketing

Pope Francis has been a busy man recently. In just the last few months, the leader of the global Catholic Church has…
- played an important role in the recent improvement in U.S.-Cuban relations,
- called out his own Vatican Curia for being plagued by a "Power-Hungry" bureaucracy,
- used a Christmas speech to bring attention to those suffering around the world and to chastise those enjoying the holidays while ignoring the plight of the less fortunate,
- and has been working on an edict urging Catholics to take a stand against climate change, on both moral and scientific grounds.
This past week, Francis continued to shake things up around the Vatican by naming 20 new cardinals, selecting the new clergymen from a diverse group of churchmen from all over the world.
According to BBC…
"Pope Francis said the appointment of cardinals from 14 countries from every continent in the world showed the Vatican's "inseparable link" with Catholic Churches around the world."
Of the new cardinals, nine were selected from developing countries, highlighting Francis's commitment to giving a greater voice to under-served populations.
For the first time in the history of the Church, the countries of Myanmar, Tonga and the Cape Verde Islands will be among the list of countries with Vatican representation.
Five of the bishops and archbishops are over the age of 80, making them ineligible to help elect Francis's successor should he pass away.
According to YahooNews…
"[The Pope] looked beyond traditional metropolitan area for the "princes of the church" who will help advise him as goes forward with church reforms."
Including this round of appointments, Pope Francis has now personally selected over a quarter of the cardinals who are allowed to vote for the next pope, strengthening the impact of his leadership and influence in the Vatican.
According to BBC…
"He wants to see an overhaul of the Church, bringing it closer to ordinary people…
Pope Francis also announced on Sunday that he would lead a meeting of all cardinals to discuss reform of the Roman Curia, the Vatican's administrative body, on 12 and 13 February."
The fresh batch of cardinals will be formally initiated on February 14th. Read from the BBC and YahooNews.

(Reuters) - Canadian oil producer Cenovus Energy Inc (CVE.TO) reported a 28 percent rise in third-quarter profit, driven by higher oil prices and increased volumes.
The company said its net profit rose to C$370 million from C$289 million a year earlier.
Operating profit, however, fell nearly 28 percent to C$313 million, or 41 Canadian cents per share.
The decline in operating profit was partly due to a sharp drop in market crack spreads, the price difference between crude oil and the refined product.
Cenovus operates numerous oil sand, conventional oil and natural gas projects in Canada, and holds a 50 percent stake in two refineries in the United States.

The Micro-USB-Hub-v2 is a very small USB hub (36x28mm) allowing do-it-yourself enthusiasts to connect up to four USB 2.0 peripherals to a single USB cable. It was conceived to be placed inside devices, while taking up a minimum of space. This hub was designed mainly to connect Yoctopuce modules, but it can very well be used with other USB 2.0 Hi-Speed, Full-Speed, or Low-Speed peripherals. The Micro-USB-Hub-v2 is a multi-TT hub, this allows better performance than a regular single TT hubs when several USB 1.1 devices, such a Yoctopcue products, are connected.
The Micro-USB-Hub-v2
Yoctopuce thanks you for buying this Micro-USB-Hub-v2 and sincerely hopes that you will be fully satisfied with it. The Yoctopuce engineers have put a large amount of effort to ensure your Micro-USB-Hub-v2 is easy to install anywhere.If you are nevertheless disappointed with this product, do not hesitate to contact Yoctopuce support. 1
|USB Micro B connector (up port)
|Down port 1
|Activity led
|Down port 2
|External power led
|Down port 4
|External power supply connector
|Down port 3
Your Micro-USB-Hub-v2 is able to manage a double power supply. You can simply connect the Micro-USB-Hub-v2 as is to your computer, and your computer is then responsible to provide the power necessary to supply the whole. In this case, be aware that a USB port does not supply more than 500mA, theoretically. To follow the rules, you can provide a 5V power supply on the contacts designed for this on the Micro-USB-Hub-v2. Peripherals connected to the hub are then supplied by this external power supply. Warning: Make sure to get the correct polarity when you connect your power supply, otherwise you risk to destroy your hub and the USB peripherals connected to it.
Commutating from the USB bus power supply and the external power supply is performed automatically, depending on the presence of voltage on the external power supply. In the opposite to traditional USB hubs, commutating power supply is not based on a mechanical contact in the power socket. Thus, commutating power supplies does not depend only on the presence of a connector. The led sitting right next to the external power port will shine if then the hub is running on external power.
The activity led will shine when devices are detected on any down port. If no device is present, then the activity led will stay off the hub will go to sleep mode to spare power.
Although USB means Universal Serial BUS, USB devices are not physically organized as a flat bus but as a tree, using point-to-point connections. This has consequences on power distribution: to make it simple, every USB port must supply power to all devices directly or indirectly connected to it. And USB puts some limits.
In theory, a USB port provides 100mA, and may provide up to 500mA if available and requested by the device. In the case of a hub without external power supply, 100mA are available for the hub itself, and the hub should distribute no more than 100mA to each of its ports. This is it, and this is not much. In particular, it means that in theory, it is not possible to connect USB devices through two cascaded hubs without external power supply. In order to cascade hubs, it is necessary to use self-powered USB hubs, that provide a full 500mA to each subport.
In practice, USB would not have been as successful if it was really so picky about power distribution. As it happens, most USB hub manufacturers have been doing savings by not implementing current limitation on ports: they simply connect the computer power supply to every port, and declare themselves as self-powered hub even when they are taking all their power from the USB bus (in order to prevent any power consumption check in the operating system). This looks a bit dirty, but given the fact that computer USB ports are usually well protected by a hardware current limitation around 2000mA, it actually works in every day life, and seldom makes hardware damage.
What you should remember: if you connect Yoctopuce modules through one, or more, USB hub without external power supply, you have no safe-guard and you depend entirely on your computer manufacturer attention to provide as much current as possible on the USB ports, and to detect overloads before they lead to problems or to hardware damages. When modules are not provided enough current, they may work erratically and create unpredictable bugs. If you want to prevent any risk, do not cascade hubs without external power supply, and do not connect peripherals requiring more than 100mA behind a bus-powered hub.
In order to help controlling and planning overall power consumption for your project, all Yoctopuce modules include a built-in current sensor that tells (with 5mA precision) the consumption of the module on the USB bus.
Like all hubs on the market, the Micro-USB-Hub-v2 declares to the computer that it is self-supplied, whether there is an active external power supply or not. Doing so prevents the computer to which the hub is connected from deciding to limit the power of the peripherals that are connected to it to 100mA for each port, which would generally render them unusable.
Moreover, as on most USB hubs on the market, this hub does not contain electronics to limit the power consumption on down ports.
The Micro-USB-Hub-v2 is not equipped with connectors on the down ports: you must directly solder wires or connectors on the transversal contacts designed for this. This considerably reduces the space needed compared to a USB socket and the plug that fits in it. With the Micro-USB-Hub-v2, there are numerous connection methods.
The Micro-USB-Hub-v2 is designed to allow you to connect up to four Yoctopuce modules, fixing them with screws and spacers. 2 You will obtain a small compact block which will likely fit into your project. Use M2.5 screws with a head diameter of no more than 4.5mm. For the USB connection between the modules and the hub, you can solder electric wires, but the most practical solution is to solder headers with 1.27 pitch3 4. Most of these assembly parts are available on the Yoctopuce shop.
Assembly of Yoctopuce modules with screws and spacers.
Using headers for board to board connection
Warning: the connector is symmetrical and thus does not have a polarizator: do not connect the modules the other way around, or you will damage them forever. To help you, the connecting contacts of the USB modules have all a square pad at one end, corresponding to the ground of the USB bus. The square pads must coincide when connecting.
Beware of the direction of the connection!
You can decide to connect your peripherals with 1.27mm ribbon cable. Choose solid copper cable, this cable is less supple than a threaded one, but much easier to solder. Get the direction right: square pads must coincide.
You can solder ribbon cables.
If you believe that the Micro-USB-Hub-v2 takes too much room in your project, you can eliminate the up port connector, and solder a USB cable instead: cut the printed circuit with the help of a good pincer and, if needed, sandpaper the protruding parts. You only need then to solder the cable on the contacts designed for this. Caution: Get the direction right: orientation of the pad on the up port is the other way around compared to the neighboring down ports. You can solder the shield of the USB cable on the pad designed for it, right next to the contacts for the wire.
Eliminate the up port connector...
... and solder a USB cable instead.

It is possible to lower the size of the Micro-USB-Hub-v2 down to 20x36mmmm by cutting one of its ends. This allows you to slip it into the most tiny locations, but you will loose the the possibility to screw four Yoctopuce modules on it.

Bugs Everywhere! Sober Virus revisited.
Novell Cool Solutions: Feature
By GWAVA
Digg This -
Slashdot This
Posted: 13 Dec 2005
A few weeks ago we ran a story encouraging GroupWise Administrators to run a sweep against their GroupWise Post Office database to look for viruses that had crept into the message store. Here is a follow-up from one organization that followed that advice:
Walton School District in Florida has an attentive staff that stays on top of virus outbreaks, but they knew that last month's Sober virus attack very possibly found a way to penetrate their email defenses. As a GWAVA customer, they read the article in Cool Solutions and decided to take advantage of the ability to scan their GroupWise Encrypted Databases for lurking viruses. They have 14 GroupWise post offices with approximately 1,000 users throughout the school district.
After scanning the first post office at the district headquarters, they immediately discovered more than 50 viruses hiding within their email system.
Bob Raffety, the GroupWise administrator for Walton School District was impressed that he quickly found so many viruses with GWAVA. "The Sober virus hit us hard," he said. "But we have gone the extra step to ensure that we remove all copies of the viruses from inside the system."
One question that always comes up is, How do these viruses get into the GroupWise Message Store even when aggressive desktop and perimeter gateway solutions are used? There are several ways. A fast-moving virus like Sober is in a race against time with Anti-Virus vendors. It is possible for the virus to slip past an AV Engine in the first few hours of the outbreak before the AV vendors have had time to respond to the new attack.
Also, the Web Access Gateway can allow viruses in. WebAccess delivers email directly to the GroupWise Message store without any scanning occurring. WASP from GWAVA was developed to protect the WebAccess from infecting GroupWise with viruses. You can find out more about WASP here.
The biggest threat is Outlook and users who are using POP3 or the new Outlook Plug-in. Most viruses are designed for Outlook, and if any of your users are using POP3 to access their email there is a good chance they are infecting the message store. GWAVA operates from inside of GroupWise, which often times prevents viruses from spreading within your organization, but the viruses can build up inside the Post Office and be sent back out via the Outlook client through other accounts the user might be using. In the case of Walton School District, the worst offender in the first post office was using POP3 to access their email and was sending out large amounts of viruses to people inside and outside the organization. The GWAVA scan has now cleaned that up and stopped that user from infecting others.
In case you missed it, check out the original article that explains how you can sweep your post office for viruses with GWAVA's Post Office Virus Scan. If you don't have GWAVA you can download a limited trial at www.gwava.com.

Mrs. Jane F. Garvey
Federal Aviation Administration
AOA-1, Room 1010
800 Independence Ave., S.W.
Washington, D.C. 20591
Dear Administrator Garvey:
As you are aware, the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA), representing more than 340,000 members, has been closely following the FAA's activities concerning the "Streamlined Administrative Enforcement Process." I noted your recognition of our member's interest in this issue, evidenced by the number of responses received by the FAA during the public comment periods. For this reason, AOPA has responded with cautious optimism to the limited detail, outline version of the "Streamlined Administrative Action Process" you released at the General Aviation Coalition meeting on December 21, 1998.
I want to thank you for considering our comments to the earlier versions of the "ticket program." The elimination of the procedure for the "on-the-spot" issuance of administrative actions against airmen is especially welcomed. It is our feeling this change alone will forestall the unpleasant confrontations that could result between FAA inspectors and airmen. That would have been counterproductive to our mutual aviation safety targets that rely so much on industry cooperation and which you and I have worked so hard to foster.
As you may have heard, AOPA has complimented the agency on this latest offering, citing however, that "the devil may be in the details." To supplement the limited information provided at the meeting and to address some of these "details," we have several questions that need clarification prior to our reaching a final position. Specifically:
As noted at the beginning, AOPA remains optimistic about coming to a favorable position on this latest proposal. However, I would be remiss if I didn't indicate previous and ongoing concerns that have always been inherent in the FAA administrative action process. The overall process will still result in what is essentially a finding of violation that remains on an airman's record for two years, an action that has a potentially serious effect on the airman's opportunities for aviation employment, insurance, and even consideration in future FAA incidents. This aspect of the process is unfair.
Please understand AOPA commends your efforts to streamline the handling of minor FAR infractions and is in favor of informal counseling, which could have a beneficial effect on aviation safety. We contend, however, this can be accomplished without causing a black mark on an airman's record brought about by the administrative action process.
A procedure whereby nothing that is said in the counseling session can be used against the airman in a FAA enforcement case could facilitate and enrich any such counseling session. All this could be accomplished with the FAA still being able to streamline the process and capturing the safety data at the same time. All that is necessary is to remove the identity of the airman in those cases where no administrative or legal enforcement action is deemed necessary. We urge you to consider this idea.
Again, thank you for your willingness to listen and act on our concerns. I would be most happy to discuss this issue with you or FAA management in greater detail and look forward to continuing our work toward improving aviation safety.

ROME (Reuters) - Emilio Colombo, 93, who served as prime minister and was the last surviving member of the group that wrote Italy's post-war republican constitution, has died, his office said on Tuesday.
Colombo, a life senator who also served as president of the European Parliament in the 1970s, died at his home in Rome on Monday night.
A native of the southern region of Basilicata, one of Italy's poorest, Colombo was elected to the constituent assembly that wrote the new constitution after a referendum in 1946 chose to end the monarchy and establish a republic.
First elected to parliament in 1948, he was a key leader of the now-defunct Christian Democrats for nearly four decades. He served as prime minister for 18 months from 1970 to 1972 and held various portfolios in his long career, including treasury minister and foreign minister.

An obvious offspring of the Yak-25/-27 breed, the Yak-28 vast family introduced in 1958 had a completely new design. The "P" is the all-weather interceptor fighter version, of which there were 443 produced in 1962-67 at Novosibirsk plant. Intended for low- and medium- altitude operations, it was equipped with an "Orel-D" radar in the radome and capable of carrying 800 kg of rockets on 4 hardpoints. Another notable feature is its twin wheel gear. The remotorized "PM" modification has established a speed record of 2400 km/h in 1963.
Yak-28P (Izdeliye 40) (NATO reporting name - "Firebar")
A dedicated long-range interceptor version, the Yak-28P was developed from 1960 and deployed operationally from 1964. It omitted the internal weapons bay in favor of additional fuselage tanks (its fuel capacity was considerable, limited by weight rather than volume), and added a new 'Oriol-D' interception radar compatible with the R-98 (AA-3 'Anab') air-to-air missile. Late production "upgraded" Yak-28Ps had a longer radome of pure conical shape and enhanced armament. Produced until 1967, with 435 built.
Yak-28PM prototype
Upgraded Yak-28P with R11AF3-300 engines, flight testing started in 1963 but development abandoned when the R11AF3-300 did not enter production. The remotorized "PM" modification has established a speed record of 2400 km/h in 1963.
Yak-28URP prototype
Rocket boosted high altitude interceptor prototype.
Yak-28-64 prototype
Extensively re-designed Yak-28P with Tumansky R-11F2-300 engines moved to the rear fuselage with intakes extending to the cockpit, intended to compete with the Sukhoi Su-15. Performance was very disappointing, being slower than the Yak-28P, and serious aileron reversal issues caused the abandonment of the Yak-28-64.
Total production of all Yak-28s was 1,180. The Yak-28P was withdrawn in the early 1980s, but trainer and other versions soldiered on until after the fall of the Soviet Union, flying until at least 1992. The recce and ECM aircraft were eventually replaced by variants of the Sukhoi Su-24.

Winter greetings from Fair Share Farm!
The winter has had its ups and downs so far, and I don't just mean the weather.
The first weekend in December saw us in Eau Claire, Wisconsin for a gathering of 200 or so CSA farmers. We learned a lot from our neighbors to the North and look forward to what they promise will be a biennial event. The keynote was titled" Awakening Community Intelligence: CSA Farms as 21st Century Cornerstones."
We returned to the farm to find that our new Automatic Chicken Door had arrived!! Tom promptly installed the thing and we have been loving it ever since. It's light activated and runs on 4 AA batteries that are supposed to last for years. Hooray for the end of late night dashes through the snow to close the door!
Fridays in December were spent at the BadSeed hawking the last of the greens from storage and the high tunnel along with our ferments. Jalapeno en escabeche sold out quickly along with all of the greens.
We don't know quite how we will cope with the closing of the BadSeed market. For those who haven't heard, Brooke and Dan are closing the store front and market in order to focus on their home (that they are building themselves) and their family (which will have a new member this Spring). Tom and I are sad for the loss. We, more than any other farm, save the BadSeeds themselves, have come to rely on the space for market, for CSA distribution, for starting our fermenting business, and for buying local foods from our friends and neighbors.
A documentary film about the BadSeed is underway, so at least there will be a record of this amazing little revolutionary space that existed for a moment in time. The market remains open through February.
We have a couple of leads for spaces to replace the BadSeed distribution site. It is hard to replicate the space, the location, etc. for the 60+ members who have picked up their CSA share there. If you have any leads, we would love to hear from you!
Getting closer to the holidays, we visited our friends Liz and Katie at Happy Hollow Farm near Columbia, MO. Liz has been building up a storm of high tunnels and its impressive to see.
Tom and I flew to his hometown, Cincinnati OH for a few days around Christmas. There he is with all of his siblings, youngest to oldest: Mary, Jeanne, Tom, Margy, Fran, Cathy, and Bill.
We drove back to Missouri passing through Indiana and Illinois with the floodwaters lapping at the sides of the road.
And just after we got back to the farm, the snow started. Only a handful of chickens were brave enough to venture out in it.

You should probably get this juicer on Amazon for less than $40 instead of a $400 Juicero
Look, there's a whole lot of drama surrounding Juicero's pricey Wi-Fi connected juicer right now, but a lot of it is hot air. Everyone knew from the start that this was a premium product with a high-end price aimed at high-end clientele. Now, people are complaining about the fact that you don't need the juicer to squeeze the bags. It's true. You don't. You also don't need a $ 2,000 coffee maker to brew a cup. To each his own, as they say.
If you want a high-quality juicer and you don't care about all the bells and whistles of a Juicero, we've got just the thing. Amazon is selling the BLACK+DECKER JE2200B 400-Watt Fruit and Vegetable Juice Extractor for just $ 34.94 right now, and it's the best-selling juicer on the site. Definitely pick one up while you can.
Here are some highlights from the product page:

Wow, thanks, Vampy. I believe Ian and Pete S are also on board, or at least in possession, of the book which came out today.
I'm on page 70. So far it is a bit like Vineland, and yes, Big Lebowskian, with the dopey protag and lots of criminal shenanigans, like Shaggy from Scooby-Doo stumbling around in Raymond Chandler World. I'm getting used to laughing out loud alone in a room. Here are just a few gems:
The bond between partners was nearly the only thing Doc had ever found to admire about the LAPD. For all the Department's long sorrowful history of corruption and abuse of power, here was at least something they had not sold but kept for themselves, forged in the dangerous life-and-death uncertainties of one working day after another -- something real to be respected.
Sloane made with the half-frown, half-smirk Doc had noticed among minor- and ex-showbiz people trying to be modest.
"Reason I ask is, if you were a cop, you'd be entitled to a free preview of our Pussy-Eater's Special?"
"How about a licensed PI? Would that--"
"Hey, Bambi!" Out through the bead curtains, as if on a time-out from a beach volleyball game, strode this blonde in a turquoise and orange Day-Glo bikini.
"Oboy," Doc said. "Where do we--"
"Not you, Bong Brain," Bambi muttered. Jade was already reaching for that bikini.
"Oh," he said. "Huh ... see, is what I thought is, here? where it says 'Pussy Eater's Special"? is what that means is, is that--"
Well ... neither girl seemed to be paying him much attention anymore, though out of politeness Doc thought he should keep watching for a while..."
Denis came back with his pizza. "I forget what I asked for on it." This happened at the Pipeline every Tuesday on Cheap Pizza Night, when any size pizza, with anything on it, cost a flat $1.35. Denis now sat watching this one intently, like it was about to do something.
"That's a papaya chunk," Slim guessed, "and these... are these pork rinds?"
..."Would you mind, Denis, actually, if I just took this piece of tofu?"
"That's a marshmallow."

And I want to clarify: I'm not saying it's great literature, or even literature really. It's stoner noir comedy, bordering on farce. As far as that goes, though, so far it's the shit.

For anyone still on the fence about whether to tackle this one, here's the trailer for the book. That's right, the trailer. Narrated by TP himself:

Otra fuerte caída de las reservas: 250 millones de dólares – Another sharp decline in reserves: $ 250 millionThe Central Bank (BCRA) returned to halt the payment of imports yesterday, but could not prevent that stocks fell another 250 million dollars (793 million from Monday), to stay at 28.270 million. If today kept this rhythm, January is the month of greater drain of reserves since the beginning of 2006, when the Government cancelled its debt of more than US $9400 billion with the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The BCRA held yesterday the official at $8.03 dollar, very close to the level that days ago the Cabinet Chief, Jorge Capitanich, defined as "acceptable convergence for economic policy objectives". Meanwhile, in the parallel market, with very few operations, the dollar fell 30 cents, to close to 12.65 pesos.
Perros están en la mira – Dogs are in the crosshairs
Last year sparked fierce controversy then that it knew that it would include the category of feral dogs as animals to hunt. It was officially announced that the hunting law passed in November of 2013 would not allow such action. A move that reassured the advocacy groups and public opinion opposed. But yesterday the discussion was revived after the reason for the Decree of the hunting law by the Comptroller, began to circulate on the internet document.

Have you ever looked at the image of a nest on the back of your favourite jar of coffee, or a yummy break-time treat and asked yourself: where does Nestlé come from?
A lot of people seem to think that we're American, or that we're a relatively newly established company, but not so, were actually Swiss, and we've got a really interesting history.
Our story starts back in the 1860s, when two men from very different backgrounds were both working on products using Swiss milk.
The first man was Henri Nestlé, a German by birth, who would be 200 years old this Sunday. Henri was living in Vevey (Switzerland) and running the local chemist shop. As a chemist he dabbled in all kinds of products, he made Portland cement, generated natural gas to power the town's streetlights, and made mustard. He was a really interesting, innovative guy, always making things.

Lichens are the product of a unique symbiotic relationship between a fungus, and either a green algae or a cyanobacterium. In this association, the fungal member is termed the mycobiont while the algal component is termed the photobiont.
Lichens obtain their energy through photosynthesis by the photobiont, sugars produced by the photobiont are then absorbed by the mycobiont as its food source. In exchange, the fungal cells form a protective layer that screens the photobiont from damaging ultraviolet radiation, and aids in water retention. Because of this, lichens are able o survive in some of our most inhospitable environments, such as exposed, wind-swept rock faces and monuments.
Park staff currently have no data on the lichen species that occur within the George Washington Memorial Parkway, however inventories of this group are currently underway in Great Falls Park.

I have been going through the Perihelion tutorials, and they have been really good so far, and I feel like I am actually beginning to grasp what is being presented. I am currently going through tutorial 6, that guides you in creating a program that displays a Degas Elite image and then exits back out when a key is pressed. I am using DEVPAC 3.10 through the Hatari emulator.
After deciphering the code on the wiki(Seems to be some formatting issues with the body of code used for the display program on the wiki) this is what I have for my code. (NOTE: I use a custom 320x200px image for my code as the image used in the tutorial doesn't seem to be available anymore...)
Code: Select all
jsr initialize
movem.l #picture+2,d0-d7 ;put picture palette in d0-d7
movem.l d0-d7,$ffff8240 ;move pallett from cpu to pallett mem
move.w #2,-(a7) ;get physbase
trap #14
addq.l #2,a7
move.l d0,a0 ;points to screen memory
move.l #picture+34,a1 ;a1 now points to the actual picture data
move.l #7999,d0 ;7999 longwords to a screen loop
move.l (a1)+,(a0)+ ;Move one longword to screen
dbf d0,loop
move.w #7,-(a7) ;wait for keeppress
trap #1
addq.l #2,a7
jsr restore
clr.l -(a7)
trap #1
clr.l -(a7) ;clear stack
move.w #32,-(a7) ;prepare for super mode
trap #1 ;call gemdos
addq.l #6,a7 ;clear up stack
move.l d0,old_stack ;backup old stack pointer
move.l old_stack,-(a7) ;restore olde stack pointer
move.w #32,-(a7) ;back to user mode
trap #1 ;call gemdos
addq.l #6,a7 ;clear the stack
clr.l -(a7) ;clen the stack address
trap #1 ;call gemdos
picture: incbin "\GFX\64BIT.PI1"
old_stack: dc.l 0
This produces an error during assemble that says
Code: Select all
Error: addressing mode not allowed at line 3 in file C:\\DEVPAK\MY_STUFF\PI
3 T 00000006 4CFC00FF00000002 movem.l #picture+2,d0-d7
From what I can gather it doesn't seem to like what is in the destination operand for the instruction on line 3. The way that the addresses are called maybe? From what I have been able to find on the internets, this seems to be a valid form of calling these registers, buy might be a processor incompatibility. But, according to the tutorial, this seems to be the way that you grab the pallet data from the picture file, and drop it to the data registers, before shoving it into the appropriate point in memory in the next line of code.
Is there something wrong with my code, or is there another way to perform the task at line 3?
If I comment out line 3, the program assembles without errors, and loads the image, without the proper pallet of course. It does load though.
I have attached the image file that I use in my code, if someone else wishes to give it a try.
