Members of the Siesta Key Village Association are considering the possibility of creating electric-vehicle charging stations in the right of way on Calle Minorga, adjacent to the SunTrust Bank parking lot on the north end of the Village.
Siesta Key Chamber of Commerce President Mark Smith broached the idea during the SKVA's meeting Feb. 7. SKVA President Russell Matthes said he would talk further about the idea with a consultant who had discussed the charging-station proposal with the group in December, then provide an update for the members.
During his recent discussions with Sarasota County staff regarding proposed changes to the Siesta Key Village Maintenance Corp. ordinance, Smith said he had asked whether the area of upkeep could be expanded. Smith pointed out to the staff members that some commercial property owners have been assessed the special maintenance district tax, even though the resulting pool of money is not used for upkeep of their property.
For example, Smith told the SKVA members, the brick sidewalks in the Village were not extended to The UPS Store on Beach Road, even though that property is assessed the SKVMC tax.
"We did not go beyond Foxy Lady (with the sidewalks)," Smith added.
County staff had told him the new ordinance would permit such changes, Smith continued, so he had started thinking about the grassy right of way by the bank.
"If we were to put (electric-vehicle) parking spaces there," he said, "we wouldn't take away from any of the net parking that's counted in the Village now."
The SKVMC could petition the County Commission for adding the space off Calle Minorga to the district, he said.
"So I'm talking to the different property owners to see what their thoughts are on (the idea)," Smith added.
During their Dec. 6 meeting, SKVA members heard a presentation by Ken Stokes, an energy consultant with the Sarasota-based company EcoTechnologies, regarding the potential value to the Village if it installed electric-vehicle charging stations.
Stokes said people driving down Interstate 75 could use a smart-phone application to learn the Village had the stations; drivers who otherwise had no plans to venture into the Village might make it a destination.
When Sarasota County Commissioner Nora Patterson asked whether the SKVA members were opposed to putting charging stations in the public parking lot, between Avenida Madera and Avenida de Mayo, Smith told her Village business owners were concerned that drivers would not move their vehicles once the charging was complete, if the stations were in that lot.
SKVA Treasurer Roz Hyman had raised that point during the December meeting.
"If we go with an $8,000 (charging) unit," Smith said Feb. 7, "they charge in two hours. Are (the drivers) going to come back and unplug that car and pull into another parking space or say, 'Forget about it?'" he asked.
However, if charging stations were created off Calle Minorga, Smith said, "(The spaces will) be vacant unless there's an electric car (in them)."
"Most people who visit the Village do so to eat or whatever, and they don't stay that long," Patterson said.
Nonetheless, Smith told her, the concern remained that business owners would not want existing spaces removed from the counts they use to comply with the guidelines of the county's Parking Improvement District.

This is the last of five articles on minimizing energy waste in water-cooling systems. (Previous installments were in March, May, and September 2012 and January 2013.) The last article examined what can be done on the supply side—cooling towers, chillers, and air coolers. Now we'll look at minimizing expenses in distributing cooled or chilled water.
Reducing distribution costs for cooling and chilled water is often one of the easiest and quickest methods of reducing energy use in water cooling, yet most plants have never investigated this area. The water circulation pumps for cooling and chilling systems are generally centrifugal pumps and these are often incorrectly sized for the demand. This is either due to expansion/contraction of the system, poor initial specification, or changes to the system that have not been logged correctly. The cooling-water map (see March 2012) is an invaluable tool in locating these changes to the system and can act as a road map to saving energy.
Changes in the system often mean that pipe work has been modified without considering the resulting alteration in the load and efficiency of the pumps at the increased or decreased pressures. The pipe work and pumps must be sized for the current demands. Large pumps operating at low loads will be less efficient than small pumps operating closer to their maximum load.
Isolate machines and processes if they are not required. This should be as far back in the system as possible to reduce pressure losses to a minimum.
Most cooling-water pumps will be located in the plant room and will never be seen by most of the staff. But remember: A simple 25-hp pump will consume around $16,000 of energy per year. This is expensive equipment.
A typical (very simplified) cooling-water layout is shown in the accompany diagram. This will have pumps supplying water to both the process and the cooling system. The water volume flow to the process can be matched to the demand by pump sequencing (where a site has multiple pumps) or preferably by the use of variable-speed drive controllers using the pressure or the flow rate as a control signal.
Where multiple pumps are used, then a simple control system can be used to optimize the number of pumps running at any one time by sensing the pressure and temperature of the flow and return. Installation of variable-speed drives (VSDs, also known as variable-frequency or inverter drives) on the process pumps allows tuning of the system to the demands of the process.
Rather than operate the pumps at full speed regardless of the process demand, a VSD can vary the flow rate of the pump to match the needs of the process. The speed of the pump can be controlled by taking a signal from the cooling-water return piping before the sump. When the process demand is low then the VSD will slow the pump down, and when the process demand is high it will speed the pump up. This simple system will also reduce temperature variations in the cooling-water circuit and provide better process control. As a general rule, the application of VSDs to a cooling-water process circuit will have a payback of around six months or less.
Use VSDs to control pumps to produce a constant pressure or flow rate. It may be necessary to have dual sensors to monitor and control both the temperature and the pressure, but the pressure is usually simply a limit control—i.e., the pressure should not be less than 4 bar.
For multiple-pump systems, a VSD is generally only needed on one pump. The remaining fixed-speed pumps can provide the base load and the VSD-controlled pump can provide the variable load. The number of fixed-speed pumps running can also be controlled according to the demand.
The benefits of VSDs will increase if machines are isolated from the cooling-water circuit when they are not being used. The cooling water will then return colder and the pump will slow down even more.
It is also possible to consider using VSDs for the cooling-water pumps to the system (cooling tower or air-blast cooler). These pump drives need a suitable control system.
Most chilled-water pumps are similar to the cooling-water pumps and the simplified system layout shown here is also broadly applicable to the chilled-water system. The pumps are often of the same size and cost the same amount to operate.
Chilled-water pumps are also mainly fixed-speed pumps and operate irrespective of the process demand. As with the cooling-water pumps, it is possible to fit VSDs to the process chilled-water pumps. This will provide the same benefits as for the cooling-water pumps—reduced energy consumption and improved chilled-water temperature stability. As a general rule, the application of VSDs to a chilled-water process circuit will have a payback of around six months or less.
Use VSDs to control pumps to produce a constant pressure or flow rate. As with cooling-water pumps, it may be necessary to have dual sensors to monitor and control both temperature and pressure.
For multiple pump systems, a VSD is generally needed on only one pump (see above for cooling-water systems).
Chilled-water pumps to the system (chillers or air-blast precoolers) may not be suitable for VSDs. Unless chillers are efficient at partial loads, the best performance will be when they are force-fed from the chilled-water sump. For many older chillers it is better for the chiller to turn off when the setpoint temperature is reached rather than to run at reduced demand. This is because of the general reduction in chiller efficiency at partial loads. New-design chillers often have good partial-load efficiency, and therefore the use of a VSD for the system side of the chilled-water system can be considered.
The benefits of VSDs will increase if tooling is isolated from the chilled-water circuit when it is not being used. The chilled water will then return colder and the pump will slow down even more.
In one real-world case, a plant had fixed-speed main and standby pumps for the cooling water from the sump to the process. The main pump was 30 hp and the standby pump was 25 hp. It was known that the 25-hp pump worked fine for the system demands and had run the system for extended periods when the 30-hp pump was being serviced. Despite this, the system was always run using the 30-hp pump.
Simply switching the control system so that the 25-hp unit was the main pump and the 30-hp model was the standby pump saved over $4000/yr. This was replicated on three other systems (another cooling-water system and two chilled-water systems) to save over $16,000/yr for exactly the same cooling capacity.
Fluid Cooler Offers Alternative to Cooling Towers or Central Chillers
When it comes to cooling extruders and injection and blow molding machines, the vast majority of plastics processors in the U.S. choose cooling towers.
Thermal Cycling of Injection Molds Boosts Surface Quality
In the injection molding process, tool temperature is an important factor in achieving high-quality parts.
Hot/Cold Injection Molding: Which Approach Is Best for You?
The hot-and-cold molding process gives molders a new tool to achieve top-quality esthetics or to fill challenging thin-wall parts. There are a number of options in heating methods, and this article discusses the ins and outs of each.

America, poised for a hyperinflationary event?
by Michael Pollaro
It is a long standing proposition of many, supported on both theoretical and historical grounds, that one of the surest roads to hyperinflation is one grounded in a government whose answer to every economic and social problem is to borrow and spend the problem away, supported by central bank able, willing and ready to finance the effort. That support is of course to simply print the money through which to buy the debt so issued by the government – what is euphemistically called monetizing the debt – thereby exploding the supply of money and eventually trashing its value.
We here at THE CONTRARIAN TAKE wholeheartedly agree with this proposition.
So, given the extraordinary borrowing needs of the U.S. government, currently being supported by a Federal Reserve whose QE II asset purchase program is large enough to finance 100% of the government's funding requirements through at least June, we thought we would take a look at the prospects for a hyperinflationary event in America. And while we think hyperinflation – defined as the total destruction in the value of the U.S. dollar – is a low probability event, a lot, and we do mean a lot more monetary inflation most definitely is not. You see, when you have a government that seems reluctant to change its borrow and spend policies in any meaningful way – a subject we took on here – teamed up with a central bank chaired by a man who thinks that loose fiscal and monetary policies are the springboard for a downtrodden economy, you have a recipe for a whole heap of monetary inflation. Indeed, in the opinion of THE CONTRARIAN TAKE, never has a U.S. central bank been chaired by a man who is more certain that loose fiscal and monetary policies are exactly what an economy mired in excess productive capacity and high unemployment requires to make things right.
Before we discuss the prospects for hyperinflation, some preliminaries…
First, U.S. government debt is being here defined as the debt of the U.S. Treasury plus the debt of the government-sponsored agencies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (popularly called agencies). Inclusion of the latter may appear to be a bit of a stretch, but as we discussed HERE, to us, its inclusion in the U.S. government's debt footings is obvious. Creations of the U.S. government, these government-sponsored enterprises and their debt obligations have always been implicitly backed in varying forms by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury, a backing made explicitly clear to any and all doubters when on December 24th 2009, in the depths of the credit crisis, the U.S. government gave the government-sponsored enterprises unlimited access to the Treasury essentially until further notice. We wonder why anyone would have thought anything different, that when push came to shove the U.S. government would protect its own, make this implicit guarantee an explicit one and the debt of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac the defacto debt of the U.S. government.
Second, it is common practice to measure a government's burden on the economy by comparing the government's debt to the nation's productive output or GDP. And while we agree that over the long haul it is a nation's productive prowess that provides the means necessary to pay the government's debt obligations, we think it is more instructive to compare those debt obligations to the nation's savings. You see, it's a nation's savings, its willingness to defer consumption that makes the government's borrow and spend programs possible. All other things equal, an economy that consumes much and saves little is an economy that cannot long afford a borrow and spend government. The crucial question then in any proper examination of a government's burden on the economy is this… is the nation's pool of savings large enough to fund the government's borrowing requirements, for how long and at what rate of interest?
Third, the Federal Reserve is not the only stateside institution that has the power to monetize the U.S. government's debt. Because of our government protected, fractional reserve banking system, they have a partner – the private banking system – which can and does buy U.S. treasury and agency securities, paying for those securities simply by crediting the bank accounts of the sellers. That's right, by printing money just like the Federal Reserve.

Do Educators Have a Right to Privacy?
Thanks for the article "Spy Games" (May).
Our district tells us that the phones, computers, hallways, and classrooms belong to them. They have a right to look and listen to anything they choose. It is very similar to what they tell students about their lockers: They belong to the district, and they can open and inspect them at anytime. I always took it for the truth. Your article has me asking questions.
It feels more and more like Big Brother watching over my shoulder. For the most part, I think I have nothing to hide, so it doesn't bother me. But when you know you are being "watched" and listened to, I wonder if we have any reasonable right to privacy?
Kathy Ginestra , Kansas City, MO
One of the subjects in "Spy Games" asks "Are they also reading our emails?" I'm not a lawyer, but as far as I understand, any emails I write on district computers as a part of my job are public record. I don't think many administrators sit around and read our emails, but if confronted with an issue, I believe they have the right and the obligation to investigate. That doesn't include secret videotaping, and the Everett administration was wrong in this case, but don't forget the old adage about emails: Never write anything in an email that you wouldn't want to read on the front page of a newspaper.

Cemeteries as history
I applaud Linda Prater's study of historical cemeteries through a wide range of curriculum ("Try This: Get Them To Try Something New," May). My colleagues give me a hard time with one of my hobbies: cemetery-hopping. An avid genealogist, I was raised in a small town in which my grandfather was cemetery caretaker. Over the years, all cemeteries have fascinated me, especially one in east Texas where a small site has veterans of seven wars. Now that is a history lesson.
Terri Keck, Marlow, OK
I was very happy to read the article on retirement and Social Security benefits (Notepad: "Retirement Relief," May). I, too, am a teacher who entered teaching 10 years ago, after my first career in architecture. There is no other industry but teaching that treats its employees so badly. I feel for myself and countless other teachers, who entered teaching wanting to make a change, to bring a higher level of education to the teaching industry, and who will now lose all they have accumulated before teaching.
Audrey Fairchild, Ph.D., Hillsborough, CA
I'm going to contact my representative about repealing GPO/WEP, but wanted to let you know that military veterans who contributed to Social Security during their career, and who are now in the classroom, are one of the groups doubly-hit by the attempt to eliminate "windfalls." It's another deficit reduction burden misplaced on the backs of those who really care about the nation and the future citizens education creates.
Jim Perkins, Troy, IL
Great chart, lousy intro "The Guide to Parent Teachers" (May 2009) features a chart with some good suggestions about saving money while raising your baby. But the introduction isn't as thoughtful.
For example, it says, "It doesn't cost much to make a baby ... but to keep one?" Both situations happen to be priceless honors. This implies "to keep" a baby is costly. Is the alternative "to not keep one?" Also, I thought it was in very poor taste to say "hopefully you aren't paying" the $35,000 delivery bill. Whom do you suggest should pay? Please don't say "insurance." Even those fortunate enough to have health insurance are still paying their own medical bills, when you think it through.

SPIELBERG'S BIOPIC LINCOLN just garnered 12 nominations for the 85th Academy Awards, taking the top spot. The nominated categories include Best Picture and Actor for Daniel Day-Lewis who plays the 16th president.
My question: To what extent do these nominations reflect great filmmaking versus Lincoln himself? Could Lincoln represent a force for political harmony today?
This month is the 150th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation. This week, we marked this watershed by describing Lincoln's signing and asking how optimistic you are in 2013, discussing how the Proclamation was only the first step in a still-incomplete journey to freedom, how Lincoln's chronic melancholy may have fueled his greatness, and what Lincoln's face tells us about the man and the president. We end the week by considering what Lincoln means for us today.
Lincoln is widely regarded as one of our finest presidents, according to a Gallup poll. Ronald Reagan and John F. Kennedy join Lincoln as the top three presidents. But only Lincoln has broad bipartisan appeal. Reagan ranks high because of he is revered by Republicans, not by Democrats. JFK ranks high because he is first among Democrats. Republicans put him last. Only Lincoln is popular among Republicans, Democrats, and Independents.
Lincoln is also unique because he is revered across the generations. He is considered the greatest president by 20% to 23% of every age group, from young adults to Americans 65 years of age or older.
Lincoln's twin goals were to preserve the union and end slavery. By keeping the union together, he passed the severest test ever of the American experiment. We have seen divisive times since then, but none that rival the war between North and South. By signing the Emancipation Proclamation, he started the nation down another road toward unification.
Amidst fears of culture wars and class warfare today, Lincoln stands as a reminder that any divide can be overcome. "Indeed," write Gallup analysts, "200 years after his birth, Lincoln may be one of the nation's most powerful forces for political harmony."
What does Lincoln mean to you?
Is he a force for political harmony today?
Please, leave a Comment below.

Wilderness Garden Path, April 1934. Dumbarton Oaks Archives (AR.LA.GP.13.39).
Robert Woods Bliss wrote the above to his friend Royall Tyler on March 7, 1934 from Montecito, California. Bliss had retired from his foreign service posting as US Ambassador to Argentina in April 1933, and the Blisses had returned to Dumbarton Oaks to take up full-time residency for the first time that May. March of 1934 was the first time that they would see the spring bulbs and forsythia begin to bloom at Dumbarton Oaks, the direct result of Mildred Bliss's long-distance partnership with Beatrix Farrand in the design and planting of the gardens that had begun in 1921. Royall Tyler also would make his first visit to Dumbarton Oaks in June of 1934. Upon his return to France, Edith Wharton, the mutual friend of Tyler and the Blisses, wrote her niece, Beatrix Farrand, on July 3:
Tyler family is staying "under my roof." Also Mary Berenson, on her way to I Tatti. Royall is very full of his American tour, but he talks much less of the New Deal than of – the Bliss garden! On that subject he is insistent & lyrical, & yesterday he wound up his second or third account of it with: "It's worthwhile to cross the ocean to see what your niece has done." So there!
And four days later, on July 7, Wharton again wrote Farrand:
Royall Tyler, who has just left, says that Mildred is spending the whole summer in Washington in order to enjoy your garden. He did not seem to think it an excessive price to pay for that privilege, but I own that, with the temperature here at 80 today, I should be unequal to it myself.
The Dumbarton Oaks Archives retains copies of this correspondence as well as 188 historic black-and-white images of the gardens, ca. 1928–1934; 1,025 color transparency images, ca. 1960s–1980s; and 1,298 color digital images, ca. 1990s and later.

Oreo's first hike was in Acadia National Park, along the Ocean Path and to the top of Gorham Mountain. The adventure was just days after my boyfriend Derek and I adopted him from the local animal shelter, and we were still piecing together his personality, temperament and preferences. So you can imagine how pleased I was to learn that not only did our new dog enjoy hiking, he was pretty darn good at it. (Watch a video of the hike here).
To be honest, I don't really know if it was Oreo's very first hike. But it was his first hike with us. We adopted him when he was about 7.5 months old, and we don't know much about what his life was like before. But he seemed new to it — hesitant at first, hopping from rock to rock and scrambling up steep slopes. Some sections of the trail puzzled him; he'd stop in the middle of the path and watch me go first, then follow my lead (an act that seemed oddly intelligent). But Oreo gained confidence as we hiked up the mountain, and by the time we were on the descent, I had to whistle and tug on the leash from time to time to get him to slow down.
During our many hikes and in-town walks since, I've found that Oreo is better behaved on hiking trails than he is on the side of the road, and perhaps the reasons are obvious.
Walking down the sidewalk, Oreo is often overwhelmed by strange scents, unnatural sounds, fast-moving cars and other people and dogs. Sometimes he barks and gets so excited that he pulls relentlessly on his leash, making for an unpleasant experience for us both. On the other hand, when we're walking down a forest path, Oreo isn't as excitable. Forest sounds are natural and soothing, and we only come across other people and dogs on occasion.
Walking on hiking trails is one of the simplest outdoor activities you can do with your dog. It doesn't require a great amount of skill or gear.
But before embarking on a hike with a dog, make sure to pack a few things:
- Extra water: On the hike, plan for your dog to need almost as much water as you.
- Water bowl: The dog needs something to drink from. To save room, purchase a collapsible bowl. I use a collapsible dog bowl made by Maine-based company called Guyot Designs.
- Energy-rich dog treats: Oreo likes dog jerky, such as Blue Buffalo Wilderness Trail Treats chicken jerky, and he also loves veggie chips made by Science Diet, (which are a lot less messy to handle). Of course, there are a variety of treats sold at your local pet store, and there are also plenty of human snacks that are healthy for dogs. For example, Oreo likes green beans and carrots.
- Plastic bags: Yes, you need to carry out your dog's poop. Yes, it's a little gross. The old fashioned way is to just place a plastic bag (or two) over your hand and pick it up, then tie the bag (or bags) securely. You can then tie it to the outside of your hiking pack or keep it in a compartment (just don't forget about it).
- Collar/harness: I hike with Oreo in a comfortable, padded harness. It's all about personal preference and how your dog reacts to different kinds of restraint. Some people find Haltis (a restraint that loops around the muzzle) most effective, while other people simply hook a leash to their dog's collar. Oreo seems to pull less if I use a harness. Also, if the trail is getting tricky and I'm afraid he might fall (for example, by cliffs), I hook his leash to both his collar and harness.
- Short leash: Have you noticed that most trails that are open to dogs display a sign instructing owners to use a leash no longer than 4 feet? There's a few reasons for that. First, long leashes allow dogs to stray off-trail, trample plants and disturb wildlife. Second, a dog on a long leash is harder to reign in if someone comes around the corner on a trail. (Not everyone loves dogs. I know, it's shocking.) And even if you don't care about nature or other people's right to not be slobbered on, you may curse your long leash when you dog repeatedly wraps it around trees lining the trail. (I'll write some other time about dogs that are let off leash when it's against rules clearly stated at the trailhead. That's a can of worms.)
- All-natural bug spray, if it's bug season: Even if you prefer to use something as strong as DEET on your own skin, you really shouldn't spray it on your dog. Why? Anything you spray on your dog, you're feeding to your dog. Introduce me to a dog that doesn't lick his fur — and everything else.
- Blaze orange collar and vest, if it's hunting season: Protect your dog. Enough said.
- Dog coat and booties, if it's cold out and your dog isn't built for it: Oreo has short hair, so I'm going to have to bundle him up this winter. We haven't gone on that exciting shopping trip yet, but it looms in the near future.
One last thing that makes hiking with your dog even easier — a dog backpack. That's right; A dog can carry his own water and food. I haven't purchased one for Oreo yet, but I'm considering it. It can be a burden to carry your dog's water in addition to your own. Many brands make them, including Ruffwear, Outward Hound, Wolf Packs, EzDog, Mountainsmith, Granite Gear and Singing Dog Designs. And since Oreo and I have so many more hikes to embark on together, I figure it'll be a good investment.
If you have any suggestions for hiking with dogs, please leave a comment in the comment section below.

Hey guys thought I would try this and see what happens. There are hundreds of realism units out there in several games. Most of which are in Arma. Now my question for everyone is…
How real do you get?
Is the realism of a military unit good for young kids in a video game?
Let me know your thoughts in the comments section. Guys, thanks for the support.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Maybe we can make this and the tangent topics the theme of HorsePLAY! EP16 – what do you guys think?

finding bugs is always a good thing!!!!!
It is the strange ones that really bug people
We supporters/users of Puppy know what it can do and how well it can do it.
It is just frustrating that a computer comes along that wants to be so hard to get working correctly.
Those EeeePC computers are kind of in a world of their own.
You should see all the tweaking I had to do to get Puppy working on a ChromeBook.
That is another specialized computer.
Had to hack the computers bios to make it boot anything but Chrome OS. It did not have the bios that had that feature built into it.
Still trying to get the touchpad working OK, but an external mouse gets around that problem.
Never did like touchpads.
I wonder what one of the newest Puppies would do on your computer
Xenialpup 7.5 maybe.
That save thing is something I have never seen happen. -24MB even being offered makes no sense!
I have a feeling something you have not told us is the clue, but not sure what it would be.
If you think Puppy or Linux killed a USB drive.
Start a new topic in the beginners help section of the forum. I bet we can figure out how to get it working again.
I think I already know what is wrong and how to fix it.
The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.

Mike, I find myself agreeing with all your points.
Still, it would be very
to be able to run a live Linux on my 1000HE: an agile system with lots of interesting software to explore and a fast browser.
But, given what I know now, I may have to content myself with Windows XP. It is so slow in browsing that my main use of the 1000HE has been as a viewer of my Windows 8.1 laptop, so I can remotely work on it from my living room.
EasyPeasy just can't keep a wireless connection working: it says it is connected, but it only works in DHCP (fails in static mode) and it fails to open websites after the first minute or so of DHCP allocation. After that, even though it shows the network as connected, it cannot open any website or ftp any file.
There is one hint: it says that ftp is impossible because it has no hostname address. Does that mean that the Hosts file is incorrect?

The egos here are strong, and everyone seems to think I'm attacking them because I keep finding bugs on this old target computer. I'd be very surprised to get an apology.
One of the people here has asked me to delete my postings, which I cannot do only because I cannot find a "delete" button here. I told him he is welcome to delete whatever he likes. I was only here to get help and I got lots of it. I am very grateful to all, even if they believe I am attacking them just because I use plain, honest language and am targeting a unique computer.
I would just edit this post:
Sailor Enceladus,
I appreciate the information that you have given me, but I do not appreciate your misstating what I have written.
I never said that atahd did not work, or required many files on the HD. I don't have time for this, or I would list all the other ways in which you have not understood my postings.
Just, please, read all that I've posted before you start replying. It is a drag to keep reading your off-issue statements.
Thanks, and sorry to criticize.
To something like this:
Sailor Enceladus,
I have attached my pMount screenshot of my HDD too. The puppy.sfs is saved on the root of sda1, which is an NTFS partition, and claims to have 13GB space free. I do seem to be able to mount sda1 and write to the NTFS partition in puppy, just the savefile writing is problematic.
I also tried the iso you posted in the blue link named Slacko 5.7.1 with the newer init and burned it to USB. I still had to use the old trick like you mentioned and copy the adv.sfs, puppy.sfs and zdrv.sfs to the root of C: or it said puppy.sfs not found. Miraculously, saving to disk on this ISO worked without the -24MB error! Thanks again.
Also, here is the link to where I got the information about changing pmedia=usbflash to pmedia=atahd and putting the puppy.sfs on the C: drive: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=84558
Maybe it was too much that I expected a message like the 2nd but instead got two responses like the first?
(which I would consider "negatively helpful" in solving the problem, as in below 0)
Thanks, and sorry to criticize.

No, I have not tried it. While I bought 5 USB drives for this experimentation (8 GB each), I am not willing to buy a hard drive. All my existing current hard drives are busy backing up data or running various versions of Windows. Give me a free hard drive and I'll try a full installation, which may wipe out all partitions and make the disk unusable (that is what happened to one of my USB drives: it is dead from Linux).
Well, I already pointed out how to dual-boot Puppy on the hard drive with XP here. You don't need a new hard drive:

It is getting rather late here, and I don't think it reasonable that you are asking me to edit a past posting in some detail.
If you feel that I've been uncivil, just complain to the owner of this forum and ask him or her to remove the posting, with my approval.
I would rather focus on actual technical questions and getting answers that work.
Actually, when I give advice on the web I usually test what I propose before I post it. Maybe my career as a software engineer predisposes me to test things so I am reasonably sure they will work for the recipient.
In cases where I cannot test I warn the recipient that I'm just guessing.
I hope this response is helpful, but in any case I'm finished with meta-discussions. If we can get back to EasyPeasy or any other iso that will work on an Eee Asus 1000HE I would be very grateful to you. This kind of meta discussion is so tiring for me. Don't make me use my Cancer card

Could try Puppeee, but it is kind of old now.
There is a specific iso for the processor you have in your Asus EeePC.
Atom or Celeron
So get the correct iso.
Not sure how browsers will run in it. Those things are demanding for software support.

Well, this has baked long enough.
@David Spector;
How was the puppy linux installed to the ASUS 1000HE?
Please post the steps in order from the time the cd was created on the main computer. The ASUS 1000HE does not have a cd, just like my 900A. So there are limited options in getting the cd copy to the ASUS 1000HE.
Thank you

Final (?) status
I have not had complete success with any Linux on my Eee (Asus 1000HE). The funny thing is that Puppy Tahr Live is running perfectly on my wife's 1000HE computer, helping her to read her gmail and facebook faster and more reliably than did Windows XP. The only known differences are that she has a wireless mouse plugged into it and a large external monitor. Both are handled perfectly, as are the wireless network and the sound system.
I have tried four or five distros/isos. Puppies and Slackos both failed on this old target computer. Each distro typically had one bad bug (for many it was the "sfs not found" bug), followed by others that seemed to have no fixes or workarounds. The last Linux development work for the Eee was done in 2009 and the last user posting before me was in 2010.
The best distro was EasyPeasy, which was the third generation or so of Ubuntu made for the Eee. I'm just having trouble making it connect to my home network. I guess that my Hosts file is incorrect, possibly because I edited it to change the hostname to my computer's name.
The Linux that came with the computer as an option was called Xandos (made by a company of the same name), which is said to have had a poor desktop that some people were able to replace with Gnome or another. However, I've been unsuccessful in finding Xandos, which originally came with a price tag of $99. All the copies, free or not, seem to have disappeared. The computer's recovery partitions undoubtedly have Windows on them.
Hope this helps. I've already given details of what I've tried in several threads in this forum. If you're interested, you probably can find the threads by searching this forum for my name.
This project has been exhausting and I'm on the edge of giving up, especially since I have neglected my more important PHP projects needed by my nonprofit business for a week or two.
Happy new year to everyone!

Sailor Enceladus,
I'm a Windows-based software engineer, with additional Web design knowledge. I have also worked on the original Multics in a variant of PL/1. I was also fluent in C and C++ and worked on OS/8 and PDP-12 systems software. I have worked on mapping software, and other applications.
My first computer was the LINC, which evolved into the LINC-8 and PDP-12.
However, I have never worked on Linux systems software and do not recognize the language this file is written in. Maybe it is Bash or Python? I once wrote a complete Fortran compiler test system in standard Shell language (sh), but that was many, many years ago.
Sorry. I had a long career before retirement, but I didn't work on every possible system. Parts of this file look relevant, but it would be too difficult for me to learn how to program in this language and how to set up the tools to do complete builds in it.
And as I said, I've been neglecting my real work.

Post subject: Asus 1000he
I have one question. If you know Tahr puppy runs fine on that hardware, why not use it yourself?
The Asus 1000he has the same hw as my old notebook. I used Pupeee 4.3 and after that Slacko 5.3.3 and that funtioned well. I had it installed on an sd card, and only used the hdd for storing downloads, next to the original xp . I nexer erased xp. The save file was on the sd card. Bleutooth did not work on this puppy.
But slacko 5.3.3 is quite ancient, and may not run a recent web browser.
If you cant make EONS 2018 work, use tahr pup.
As much as I liked Pupeee, and know it has a lot to offer for this hardware, it is old, and not maintained. Jemimah has left the forum years ago. Everything in it outdated.
P.s. After I left the eeepc at a friend, he installed lxle on it. Apparently that worked fine.

Might this be of any use?
I don't know if this is a variation on Xandros, or quite
it is.....but it's part of a collection of software at Sourceforge
specifically for the eeePC community.
If you access the 'Parent folder', you'll find more options. And since it's an .iso file (and 2.7 GB at that), it's a pretty fair bet that it's an operating system of some kind. While not specifically stating it
Xandros, it's obviously designed to run on those machines.
Worth a try, I guess.

Mike, Thanks, but it was previously suggested (somehow I got into several threads in this forum), and requires a very complex set of installation tools (tinybase.zip, utils.zip, and maybe others) and nonobvious steps that I'm not willing to try to figure out. If I'm not mistaken, it is based on Debian. Like all the rest of Eee Linuxes, it was unsupported and unavailable after about 2009. I did manage to find a similar 1.7 iso, but it is too difficult to install.

Often as a parent we believe we are teaching our kids values that are important to us, yet we also want to be giving to our children. I find that many times parents are shocked that their child had a break down at the store or temper tantrum about wanting a toy or goodie. But what we sometimes forget is that we are teaching our children when we allow them to have, have, have or when we do not set boundaries and processes for them to succeed.
Here is a prime example. I do not usually get my kids toys when we go to the store, but on occasion I have told them they could get something for $1 (treat or stickers, etc..). Well after they had been given a $1-2 goodie several times in a row and I did not give them something on the next trip to the store my kids had an all out tantrum . The trip to the store was a nightmare. I wondered why my children acted this way and then it hit me. I was responsible for making them come to expect they would get a small goodie. They had observed a pattern in my behavior and when my behavior changed without notice they broke down. Once I realized what was happening, I was able to set new expectations and better behavior from my kids when we go to the store. Are you wondering how I stopped the tantrums from our trips to the store?
With these 5 strategies any parent can use:
1. Set Clear Expectations before Entering any Store or Restaurant
Before going to a store with your child discuss what will happen during your excursion. Tell him what you are going to the store for and what you are not getting. For instance, if I do not plan to let them get anything I tell them so, and if we are getting a toy for a party I explain that ahead of time and tell them we are not buying any toys for them so that when we visit the toy aisle I have a clear understanding of why we are in their favorite section.
2. Create a Wish List for Your Child
If they ask for toys, games, other items I tell them lets write it down so they can decide if it is something they want to ask for- for their birthday or Christmas
If my kids ask for a toy or video game during the Fall, I tell my kids they should put their favorite gift ideas onto their Christmas Wish List. I then proceed to tell them unless they are buying the item themselves, I am not buying any toys, games, etc… I also remind them it will not be long before Christmas arrives and they get presents.
I also explain that just because they have asked for a list of gifts does not mean Santa or their family will get it for them. I tell them that Santa has many children to give gifts to and has to limit what each child is given.
3. Change Your Language
Our language, actions and attitude determine how our children will act when it comes to getting things they want. If we want to promote a healthy respect for patience, an understanding of need versus want, teach kids how to delay gratification then is it important we teach them how to do those things. One way we do that is by telling them how we are patient and delay buying things we need or want in our own lives. It is also important that we talk to them about how to be patient and give them words and ways to do so. I tell my children the following:
If you want that toy you can save your money and buy it once you have enough money or ask for it for your birthday or Christmas if it is really what you want. I tell my kids to write it down and they can decide if that is really a toy, game, item they want. Usually the item is the 'toy de jour' and tomorrow will bring a shiner or more enticing toy.
4. Create a Reward System for Great Behavior
Determine a reward system for your child's behavior. You may want a daily behavior chart, but if you want to encourage great behavior when you are at stores and restaurants create a reward system so that after 10 trips to the store or 1 month you will give them something or let them spend $1-5 for their exceptional behavior while shopping. Once again this can also create an expectation you do not want to continue- but you have to weigh if it will allow your shopping trips to be more enjoyable and make giving them something on occasion worthwhile.
5. Give to Others Regularly
Talk to your child about some of the different types of Charities or groups that help others. You might mention kids that have no family (orphans), people who may be lonely (nursing home), starving children, shelter animals, women and kids in shelters, kids with cancer, and so on. Ask them who they would like to help. If you can decide on a group, you can help organize a cookie sale or host a little party for the charity to raise money.
This will begin to show your child that there is more to the world than just them and their wants.
6. Create a Day of Giving in your House
Pick one day a week or month that will be our family day of giving. Decide how you will give to a family member, someone you know or the community. Plan to do something special that day for someone. For each Day of Giving, let each family member have a turn deciding how to give that day. This will help your kids and family put the focus on others instead of material things and themselves.
7. Create a sense of Community in Your Home- Everyone Pitches In
It is so important that children learn how to live within a community. Your household is a small community. People within a community need to be active to keep the community working and looking good. I encourage you to assign each family member jobs or chores in the home by explaining that everyone in this house pitches in and helps keep your house running. My kids fold clothes, clean the bathrooms, help get the trash together, and set the table. I explain how much work mom and dad have to do every day to keep up the house and those jobs, which I do with them, are the way they help pitch in to keep our house in order.
Even very young children can help with basic chores and often younger children are more eager to help. Start off with giving each family member a weekly or daily job to do at home and then add to the list once the first job is getting done regularly. Even most classrooms assign jobs to the kids in the class, such as calendar, door, trash, line helpers. Embrace the idea of community and get your family to pitch in.
Remember changing your child's attitude and behavior from Give me to a Giving way does not happen in a single day. If it took months or years to reinforce that they get what they want it will take some time and consistency on your part. Start with one idea and build from there. Here's to raising children with a giving spirit one lesson at a time.

Travel tales
Our short break in Port Douglas was lovely. For my non-Aussie readers, Port Douglas is a tropical seaside town that promotes itself as the only place where two world heritage listed attractions meet. Those would be the Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree rainforest.
The weather was a little cooler than normal for May, but quite warm enough for a couple of Melbournians escaping our own wet and chilly conditions. We may not have had a chance to swim, but when it's warm enough to wear shorts or summer dresses, I'm happy.
Here's a brief pictorial summary of our weekend:
|Breakfast daily on the balcony of our apartment. I could get used to this view!
|Exploring around town: Old sugar wharf at the entrance to the inlet
|St Mary's by the sea
|Four mile beach viewed from the lookout above the town.
|While we were having coffee on the marina, Bike Boy spotted this prawn trawler selling their catch....
|....and the deal was done. Lunch!
|It may have been cloudy, but the view across the inlet whilst sipping a pre-dinner cocktail was just fine anyway.
|Of course there was food. We stopped for some tropical fruit flavoured ice cream on a tour of the Daintree.
|Overcast and a bit drizzly, but still spectacular - Cape Tribulation
|These baby saltwater crocs on the Daintree River are almost cute but I don't fancy meeting them when they're fully grown.
|The sun shone on our last day, so that called for lunch in the park with a view of the Coral Sea.
Now it's back to reality... although I'm busy researching accommodation for our next holiday in September. Planning our trip to Malaysia and Vietnam should keep me going through the next three cold and miserable months.

"e2fsprogs-1.42 has already been released with initial support greater than 16T, and kernel code already has support as well. There are rough edges to work out, and there is testing to be done."
So, I would not trust it for at least 6 months, if not a year, until they have worked out the "rough edges" and tested it thoroughly.

It was a celebration of past successes and plans for the future, as Relay For Life of Lewiston/Niagara recognized top contributors for 2012 and set the stage for 2013 at a breakfast kick-off Saturday morning at Water Street Landing in Lewiston.
"We have a lot to be thankful for," led off Lewiston/Niagara Relay Chair Christina Harris, who coordinated the Saturday program with Co-chair Michelle Hosie and Tami Gabri, American Cancer Society staff partner. They reported that the 2012 event held on the Lewiston-Porter High School running track was again seen as successful. Relay Lewiston/Niagara, one of several held in the area with proceeds benefitting American Cancer Society research programs, set a goal of $79,000 to be raised. Turns out Lewiston/Niagara's final tally topped that, with $83,728 raised among the 271 teams and 88 survivors who participated in the daylong Relay. Not bad for an event that competed that weekend with another local fundraiser - Lewiston Village Pub's "PubFest" to benefit the Variety Club at Academy Park.
Notable Relay teams recognized included Team Hope in the Jade club category, raising $11,000; Team Hope and Faith in the Silver club with $3,755; and Team Ma-Ma Moe in the Bronze club with $27,750. Top individual awards went to All-Stars Pamela Barber, with $4,274 raised, and Maureen "Mo" Castiglione, last year's honorary survivor, with $2,600 raised.
"Thank you to all our hardworking fundraisers!" exclaimed Harris to rounds of applause.
A complete listing of the 2012 Lewiston/Niagara Relay awards honorees can be found on its website, http://www.RelayForLife.org/LewistonNY.
Other big news from Saturday's kickoff involved a date change and new venue announcement for the 2013 event. Gabri told the group that, this time around, the Lewiston/Niagara Relay, which is entering its 16th year, would return to the popular overnight format of earlier years. The Relay will take place Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 3-4, at Reservoir State Park on Military Road. Check-in time will be at 1 p.m. Saturday; the Survivor's Luncheon will be at 2 p.m., the opening Survivor's Walk is at 3 p.m., and the Luminaria Ceremony will be at 9 p.m. The event concludes Sunday morning at 6 a.m.
Harris and Gabri explained that Relay organizers felt a new date and venue change were needed to better serve the Niagara County community as a whole. They said that, while the Lewiston-Porter School District has been a gracious host over the years, the Lewiston Relay was also conflicting with student events on campus and with activities in the Village of Lewiston, and other factors were coming into play.
"We love Lew-Port; we had a great relationship there, but we really want to expand this Relay, help out this community," said Gabri. "With this new location, we really want to reach out to Niagara-Wheatfield, Sanborn, the Town of Niagara. We felt with the new location it would be best for everyone. It's centrally located, there is security there, and we can camp overnight ..."
Plans call for the 2013 Relay setting to be along the western side of the park, north of Witmer Road, adjacent to the new ball diamonds. Camping opportunities would be available, there are plenty of park shelters, better parking and more facilities for Relay participants to use.
"Reservoir Park offers much more for us. There's lots of reasons to move," Harris said, noting that among them is the renovated park's size, the camping options, better security with the New York State Police substation nearby, and the fact that Relay could again return to being an overnight event.
Gabri said the 2013 Relay's theme would be "Camp Out for a Cure," and said Relay organizers wanted to return to their focus of being an overnight event. "There'll be plenty to do, people can come and go," she said, and "participants do not have to stay the whole night."
"We wanted to make it an overnight event," said Harris. "That's what it should be because cancer never sleeps."
"It's far more appropriate," said Gabri.
"And that's when the fun, starts," added Harris.
For interested participants and those seeking more info on the upcoming Relay, organizers report that team information meetings are slated for May 8, June 12, and July 10, all from 7 to 8 p.m. at Water Street Landing, on South Water Street in Lewiston. Other Relay planning events are being eyed in Sanborn and the Town of Niagara, but are not yet finalized.

Review of DVD
In GO Tuesday, I reviewed Billy Wilder's brilliant, bitter 1951 drama "Ace in the Hole." Today, I'm recommending the movie Wilder directed the year before, "Sunset Blvd." It's a little less bitter, but even more brilliant.
"Sunset Blvd." is the story of a faded silent film star who pressures a young, desperate writer to pen her comeback movie — and pressures him into an increasingly creepy relationship. The fact that the silent star is played by Gloria Swanson, an actual former movie star, adds to the strange power of "Sunset Blvd."
Funny, tragic, suspenseful and touching, this is one of the best movies ever made about the strange process of making movies. It also stars William Holden, silent film director Erich Von Stroheim and "Dragnet" star Jack Webb. But make no mistake — this is Swanson's movie, and she delivers a classic performance.
The excellent DVD includes making-of features, outtakes from the unused opening and more.
Will Pfeifer writes about older DVDs on Sundays and new ones on Tuesdays. Contact him at 815-987-1244 or email@example.com.

NVIDIA GeForce2 MXby Anand Lal Shimpi on June 28, 2000 9:30 AM EST
- Posted in
- GPUs
As one of the main creators of the 6-month product cycles our gaming graphics card industry currently operates on, NVIDIA sort of owes it to everyone to produce both cost effective and extremely high performance parts. If they expect us to keep on adjusting to new $300 graphics accelerators being released every 6 months they should also be obligated to provide a solution in the $100 - $150 range that doesn't perform like most other "value" graphics cards.
While their current flagship product, the GeForce2 GTS, is receiving much more competition than the original GeForce ever did in terms of performance, it is safe to say that NVIDIA is still sitting pretty. With a very popular high end part such as the Quadro (as well as a couple of successors to that due out shortly) and a very solid product in the GeForce2 GTS for the performance desktop segment, it was only a matter of time before NVIDIA attempted to completely dominate the market with a cost effective entry as well.
Not too long ago we discovered that AMD's Duron has restored meaning to the axiom "cheap doesn't have to mean slow" and now NVIDIA is attempting to continue that recent tradition with the release of the GeForce2 MX, what we've been calling the NV11 for the past few months.

No. 18 Stanford was able to bounce back from a stunning loss last week to Washington and rally to beat Arizona on Saturday 54-48 in overtime. The win keeps the Cardinal from slipping further behind in the race to the Pac-12 championship game. Quarterback Josh Nunes threw for a career-high 360 yards while accounting for five touchdowns.
But it was Arizona quarterback Matt Scott who made history, completing 45 of 69 passes for 491 yards and three touchdowns. The completions and attempts surpass previous records held by Willie Tuitama. When you think of Rich Rodriguez offenses, you think of running quarterbacks like Pat White and Denard Robinson, but almost all of Arizona's offense on Saturday came through the air.
However, it was Scott's final throw of the game that landed in the arms of Stanford linebacker Chase Thomas and allowed Stanford to keep the Wildcats off the scoreboard.
Stephan Taylor would rush for the game-winning touchdown on the next possession.

DIY crocheted glass bottle cozy...
you'll need:
a bottle, 1/2 skein cotton yarn and a size .5 or .6 needle
1 You will be making a flat disk that is almost the size of the bottle's base.
2 To make a circle you will need to make a chain of 7 links. Then connect the circle by making a single crochet stitch in the first chain link.
3 The first row will be 2 stitches in each link. The second + row[s] will be alternating between 1 single crochet stitch then 2 single crochet stitches in the second. Repeat until the disk is the size you want.
4 Once your circle is the size of your bottle's base, begin the next rows with only 1 stitch in each.
You will do that over and over until you've reached the height you want for your cozy.
5 Cut the yarn, tie it off and weave the extra back into your cozy.
For those who would like to know the how-to steps, here you go!

Thanks so much for sharing this pattern--I have been looking for something like this, to 'wrap' dish soap bottles that I give as gifts with crochet dishcloths. I'm going to try this over the weekend!ReplyDelete
I would love to use this pattern to make covers from some mason jars, but I'm not familiar with the size hooks you're using - .5 or .6? I can't find that size anywhere.ReplyDelete
What a great idea to preserve the bottles from the small hands of the baby, thanks!ReplyDelete

Here at Blue Nile, we are counting down the days until National Proposal Day by sharing three sweet proposal stories from Blue Nile customers. If you're unfamiliar, National Proposal Day is March 20, one of our most favorite days of the year because it's specifically designated for popping the question.
Read on for Shelby and John's story.
In Her Words
The Proposal: My fiancé, John, is an infantry officer in the army. At the time, he was going through a course called IBOLC. He invited my family and grandparents down to Fort Benning for his graduation ceremony. After the graduation ceremony, the family guided me outside for pictures with John to celebrate him. Little did I know that he had been planning our proposal for weeks. He bought nine roses for each of his buddies to give to me. (They all were in on his plan.) I was waiting for John outside and was wondering where he was. When I turned to my left, I saw one of his friends with a rose and then I noticed a whole line of them. They each walked by me handing me a rose. Once the line ended, I heard John say my name. I turned around and he was on one knee and he asked me to marry him in front of all our friends and family
The Ring: We had been looking at rings online and Blue Nile's website had such a beautiful presentation of their diamonds and it was easy to navigate through the website. You could easily pick the perfect diamond. I wanted a round diamond with a white gold band, but he was the one who picked it out.
The Wedding: Since we are a military couple, we haven't been able to set an exact date due to military training, but we have roughly set a time for the spring. We plan to be married in a church sometime in April.

Perhaps Sen. Michael O'Donnell, R-Wichita, simply was looking for some respect when he introduced legislation to force both the University of Kansas and Kansas State University men's basketball teams to play Wichita State. Senate Bill 144 would have had the Shockers on the court each year playing nonconference but regular season games against the Jayhawks and the Wildcats.
The bill never emerged from committee. In perhaps a fitting bit of irony, neither KU nor KSU made it to the Final Four of this year's NCAA tournament. But Wichita State did.
They weren't supposed to, of course. Of the 8.15 million brackets ESPN received, 0.24 percent of them had the Shockers going this far. Most had them losing their first game.
The Wheatshockers didn't. Pittsburgh was just the first tourney team to discover how much talent WSU possesses. The nation's top-ranked team, Gonzaga, was next. This weekend, the Shockers topped LaSalle and Ohio State.
"I don't think we're Cinderella at all," said Coach Gregg Marshall. "Cinderellas usually are done by this stage. If you get to this point, you can win the whole thing."
Wichita State will attempt to do just that this weekend in Atlanta. Saturday they'll face high-flying Louisville. A win would put the Shockers into Monday's championship game against either Syracuse or Michigan. Being crowned national champs would be no more improbable than the team's stellar performance already. At 30-8, the Shockers have set a school record for wins. Wichita State has been to the Final Four once before, losing to eventual champion UCLA in 1965.
But the school with fewer than 15,000 students is more renowned for its bowling teams. The men and women pinstrikers have won 19 national titles since 1975.
This year's basketball team will change that reputation. Or at least will have earned the respect so that lawmakers won't feel compelled to legislate future schedules. The Sunflower State is being represented in this year's Final Four of the Big Dance; it's just not the Jayhawks or Wildcats.
Go, Shockers.
