|Topic Review (Newest First)
LOL, MY Dh is the opposite, he prefers US styled stuff. But then, he does already know that this baby is getting a Britax(technically European styled, but the US doesn't get the cool Euro seat covers) for a convertible seat(the new Marathon, which should be out in stores by the time he needs it, in the Fido pattern, so that it coordinates with big brother's denim fabric Britax booster seat). He doesn't have any say in the matter though, I know that the Marathon will be the best seat for this baby, especially if his body type is like DS #1's(long torso) because the Marathon will have a very tall back, and baby will hopefully be able to rearface in it until at least 2 years of age.
For an infant seat, I HATE traditional infant carriers. Being 5'1, the ones with the handle were always really inconvenient, and heavy for me to carry(never owned one personally, those were my observations from carrying them at seat checks) So, I bought the Fisher Price SIV. The handle is like a luggage strap, and the seat itself is very lightweight. I wanted this seat SO badly, I actually started calling Babies R Us's around the country, and managed to find one in Alabama, and had it sent to me. And then of course, an online store got some in for a close-out. LOL
|Thanks, benzmommy. I was aware of the recalls and our seat was manufactured after the recall. It was actually a pretty minor issue but ours is now the "new and improved" model. I actually wanted the Britax Handle with Care but they were sold out everywhere and before I could order one DH fell in love with the Peg Perego. He loves anything European, lol!
Piglet, you may want to make sure your Peg Perego infant seat hasn't been recalled, there have been 2 recalls on them since they've been introduced onto the market.
For a current listing of carseats on the market(and this list WILL change in September, when LATCH becomes law, and all carseats will have to be LATCH compatible) go to http://www.aap.org/family/carseatguide.htm
Nohiddenfees, you may be able to keep your baby rearfacing to a year, remember that a baby's weight gain DOES slow down once they start moving. I know with my son, he weighed 20lbs at 9 months, it took him over 2 years(until he was 3) to reach 30lbs. He started walking at 9 1/2 months. Hopefully, your seat will be able to accomodate your DD. And, you may want to start saving up money to get a seat such as the Britax Super Elite/Husky(which is a forward facing only seat that uses the harness from 20-80lbs) so that when your DD does outgrow the Eddie Bauer seat you have, you can still keep her harnessed. You can see this seat at http://www.childseat.com
Unless something has changed in the last month, there are no convertible carseats rated at greater than 35lbs rear facing sold in the US, including the Alpha Omega.
TwinMomL: Yeah, we each have different EB seats. I know we'll have to get her another front facing seat in short order, but it's rear-facing I'm worried about in the meantime.
CanOBeans: I could have been clearer, but that is the source of my frustration. Large heads run in DH's family, and DD is blessed with one. I would ideally like an option to keep her rear facing longer than one year, but there's no way I can find to do this given her size.
CanOBeans thank you for being the voice of reason. I was just going to say that about their bones before age one.
We had a "baby bucket" style seat till about 7-8 months when she reached 20 #. Now we have the convertable kind, it goes from 5 to 80 lbs because it turns into a booster seat too. So she'll be in it the next few years. It is the "alpha omega" model, don't know what brand. I think it it rear facing to 40 lbs...if anyone wants to know what brand let me know I will look...we got it at toys r us.
Piglet68, glad we could clear that up for you!
I just have to say that having the baby's legs touching or even squished up against the seat is NOT a reason to turn them forward facing. They are still MUCH safer rear-facing. The danger in having them face forwards is that in an accident, the baby's head will be flung forwards. At younger ages, a baby's bones are not yet rigid, and will separate, allowing the neck to stretch further than the spinal cord is able to go...snapping or permanently damaging the spinal cord. You are much better off dealing with bruised or even broken legs than a broken neck/damaged spinal cord.
Please go read all the info at www.carseat.org and see if you can find a certified tech in your area to check your seats and show you proper installation. The vast majority of car seats are installed incorrectly and thus are NOT protecting the kids sitting in them.
Thanks for clearing this up you guys. I forgot that the "convertible" seats tend to be rated for rear-facing at higher pounds than the infant seats. The reason I chose an infant seat is not for the carrier, but because it seemed to me that the infant seats reclined further and were more appropriate for newborns. Most people I spoke to preferred them over the convertible seats for very young babies.
I always planned that once Emily was too heavy for the infant seat that we would get the Roundabout. Now I know that we can use it rear-facing until Emily is one year old, if she is still under a year when she "graduates" from the infant seat.
Thanks for clearing this up you guys!
|NoHiddenFees, there is a different EB convertible (the one I have) that you might look into. It is rated for forward-facing up to 80 pounds. I thought that rear-facing was up to 40, but after reading your post I think maybe it's just 30 or 35. I know that forward-facing, though, is definitely 80. Maybe yours is, too, and you just don't realize it?
|All three of my kids were over 20 lbs. at 3 months and extremely squished by 4 months. We bought a convertible seat which fits to 40 pounds, but their feet were smashed up against the back of the seat if rear-facing. We turned them around by about 4.5 months of age. By the way, all of my kids outgrew the convertible "up to 40 pounds" seats by age three. They sit quite comfortably in the booster.
This issue frustrates me to no end. I would like to keep dd rear facing as long as possible. As the mother of an infant that could very well be OVER 35 pounds before one year (she's about 28 lbs and over 30 inches now at 7 months) I don't have many options. I've been told to keep her rear facing in the seat I have even if she's greater than 35 lbs, but her feet are already touching the car's back seat... so I don't know what to do. I've tried to look into importing one from Sweden, but can't find any place online to do this.
Being told that statistically speaking, almost no babies are over 35 lbs at a year is small comfort. I also have the Eddie Bauer convertible... but it's only rated to 35 rear facing, not 40. It's rated forward facing to 40 lbs.
We used a rear-facing Britax Roundabout (rear-facing to 30 lbs.) until our daughter was 2. Now nearing 4 she's still in one forward facing (to 40 lbs.)
Never used a 'bucket seat'--I know some disdain them for the 'detachment/isolation' potential--but we didn't want our baby's safety dependent on something that was supposed to come out at the 'push of a button!'
If they eject that easily, they eject TOO easily!
Child's head should not be above the back of the seat, and the shoulder straps should adjust properly to their shoulders if they are still within the approved weight range.
Harnesses should be 5-point as long as possible.
I know I posted on this recently elsewhere--I'll see if I can find it!
(edited to reflect that she was rear-facing until 2, although I think it was closer to 3)
|Right, babies who are under 1 year but over 20 pounds go in a convertible seat. We have the Eddie Bauer one that is rated for rear-facing to 40 pounds. Alec was in the convertible seat by 3 months--obviously he couldn't be forward-facing at that point!! Once he does face forward, he'll be able to use this convertible seat as a car seat and then eventually (to 80 pounds) as a booster seat.
I am not familiar with the thread you are talking about, but I'm jumping in any way. All children must face the rear until they are 1 year old AND 20 pounds. Many of the infant carriers on the market, babies outgrow (by height or weight) BEFORE their first birthday. However, you still need to face the child in the rear position. So, you must buy a Convertible Car Seat. Most convertible car seats can rear face until about 35 pounds. Once the baby turns one, assuming they are at least 20 pounds, you may turn the baby forward.
I have not seen the thread where people squish their larger child into a tiny seat. I'll go look now.
Do tell, ladies! This came up on the other thread about what doctors know but I didn't want to derail it.
My understanding is that when a baby reaches the weight limit for a car seat (I believe our Peg Perego is rated up to 25 lbs), the chair is no longer safe for the child, regardless of age. I would think that age would not matter so much b/c children seem to grow at such different rates. Are you guys saying you should just squish your under-one-year-old in an infant seat regardless of how much they weigh or how long they are? Wouldn't it be unsafe to put a child in a seat they are too big for?
What I hear you saying is that even if your child weighs 30 or 40 lbs, if they are under 1 year old they must be in a rear-facing seat. I have not come across any rear facing seats that are rated for over...hmmm, I think 35 lbs is the highest I've seen (Britax Handle with Care, I believe). So if your kid weighed 40 lbs at one year, what would you do?
By toddler seats, I don't mean boosters. I mean the seats that aren't infant carriers, sit upright, and have harnesses. They are what you "graduate" to when the babe is too big for the infant seat. The Britax Roundabout is an example of what I'm talking about.
So what have I gotten mixed up here?
By the way, I'm installing our base this week and going to our local car seat inspection facility (the local police station) for my free car seat inspection.
thanks for the heads up!

Lifetime went behind the Bell on Monday and unveiled what (allegedly) happened behind the cameras of our favorite childhood sitcom. But instead of Zack Morris running the show, this time it was all about Screech — and the story from outcast Dustin Diamond's perspective.
The Unauthorized Saved by the Bell Story, based on Diamond's tell-all memoir, began with the gang -- Dylan Everett as Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Sam Kindseth as Diamond, Tiera Skovbye as Elizabeth Berkley, Julian Works as Mario Lopez, Alyssa Lynch as Tiffani-Amber Thiessen, and Taylor Russell McKenzie as Lark Voorhies — pulling up to their first mall tour unaware their lives were about to change. read more

The Saturday Night Live character gets a big screen treatment.
Yet another recurring character from Saturday Night Live makes the jump to the big screen in this comedy. Leon Phelps (Tim Meadows) is the host of a radio call-in show in which he dispenses advice on the fine art of seduction, for which he seems to have quite a talent - rather surprising, seeing that he's usually broke, nearly everything he says sounds crass and obvious, and he possesses a fashion sense that would have been gauche in the mid-1970s but seems just plain freakish today. After finally going too far during a broadcast, Leon is fired, but he receives a note from one of his former flames who wants him to come back to her - and is willing to support him in high style. This sounds just fine with Leon, except she hasn't signed her name, and now Leon has to backtrack through his numerous conquests of the past and figure out who wants him to work his love magic. Meanwhile, a group of husbands who've been cuckolded by Leon, led by Barney (Lee Evans) and Lance (Will Ferrell), are hot on his trail, eager to get revenge. The Ladies' Man also stars Tiffani Thiessen and Karyn Parsons as two of the ladies in Leon's life and Billy Dee Williams as the ultra-smooth proprietor of Lester's Straight-Up Lounge.

Canberra could soon host a rehabilitation facility aimed at treating addicted Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents by reconnecting them with their land and culture.
A development application for the multimillion-dollar Ngunnawal Bush Healing Farm has been lodged with the ACT Planning and Land Authority, outlining plans for the eight-bed alcohol and other drug residential rehabilitation facility near Tharwa.
The ACT Health Directorate executive director of policy and government relations, Ross O'Donoghue, said the facility would be a step forward for Indigenous health services in the capital.
''Typically these services are modelled on more Western ideologies,'' he said.
''This is actually a slightly more serious attempt at using Aboriginal culture as a core element of the program.''
The ACT government purchased ''Miowera'', a working farm, after committing $5.8 million in capital funding to the facility's construction.
The Commonwealth also committed $1 million to the project.
Residents will be expected to contribute to the running of the property, which includes an orchard, animal pens and a firewood harvest area.
Mr O'Donoghue said the facility would aim to reconnect residents with their culture and the land while using the farm environment as a training ground.
''The model is not that uncommon around the country, but what's different about this one is it's very much focused on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people,'' he said. ''People have been travelling considerable distances to attend these services.''
Plans lodged with ACTPLA outline the construction of several buildings, including two residential ''pods'' housing four bedrooms each, as well as a communal administration and training building.
Mr O'Donoghue said work on the project was scheduled to commence in October if the application was successful and there were no delays associated with election periods.
He said the facility - in a location chosen due to cultural requirements and its proximity to a hospital - wasn't expected to be operational until late 2013.

Vs Parity Previous USD/CNY Central Parity 6.2082 6.2208 USD/CNY OTC 0830 GMT 6.1560 -0.84% 6.1650 High 6.1565 -0.83% Low 6.1537 -0.88%
SHANGHAI--China's yuan rose to a record high against the U.S. dollar Thursday after the central bank guided the yuan fixing to a new high for the third straight session.
On the over-the-counter market, the dollar hit CNY6.1537 in the early afternoon--its lowest since the launch of the modern Chinese currency trading system in 1994. At around 0830 GMT, the dollar was at CNY6.1560 around 0830 GMT, lower than Friday's close of CNY6.1650. It traded in a range of CNY6.1537 to CNY6.1565.
China's financial markets were closed from Monday to Wednesday due to public holidays.
The People's Bank of China set the dollar/yuan central parity rate at 6.2082, much lower than Friday's 6.2208, tracking the dollar's weakness while the Chinese markets were closed.
"The PBOC has showed a clear intention to let the yuan rise: the fixing fell a lot when the dollar weakened, but rose only a tad when the dollar posted gains," said a Shanghai-based trader with local bank.
Another Shanghai-based trader with foreign bank said investors were growing cautious about how much further the PBOC would allow the yuan to rise, since the domestic currency's gains weren't supported by economic fundamentals.
New data released this week showed manufacturing activity growing at a slower pace. China's official manufacturing purchasing managers' index for April fell to 50.6 from March's 50.9; analysts had expected the reading to remain unchanged. Also, HSBC's China April PMI came in at 50.4, down from 51.6 in March.
The yuan has risen 1.2% against the dollar since the start of 2013.
Offshore, one-year dollar/yuan nondeliverable forward contracts fell to 6.2228/6.2271 from 6.2365/6.2385 late Friday, implying a 1.1% fall by the yuan over the next year.
In the offshore yuan market in Hong Kong, where the Chinese currency floats freely, the dollar was at CNY6.1585, lower than CNY6.1620 late Friday.

Touchpoints: Your Child's Emotional and Behavioral Developmentby T Berry Brazelton
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Based on over three decades of continuous practice and internationally recognized research, Touchpoints is the only childcare reference by a pediatrician who has both medical and psychoanalytic training, and who offers parents a complete understanding of child development from a physical, cognitive, emotional, and behavioral point of view. No other childcare guide offers supportive, empathetic insights into the parents' own emotions, and no other guide includes both chronological chapters and alphabetical topics on all issues faced by families from conception through age six.
"Touchpoints" are the universal spurts of development and the trying periods of regression that accompany them throughout childhood. Dr. Brazelton uses them as windows to help parents understand their child's behavior and prevent future problems.
Part One: "Touchpoints of Development" is a vivid chronological account of the basic stages of early childhood. Every chapter covers: feeding; crying; temperament; social learning; stranger awareness; discipline; sleeping; learning; emotions; independence; self image; sexuality; communication; motor skills; attachment; play; self-esteem; toilet-training.
Part Two: "Challenges to Development" is a complete alphabetical reference. Each entry shows how to understand, defuse, and prevent potential problems such as: allergies; bedwetting; crying; depression; discipline; divorce; fears; feeding problems; headaches; hearing problems; hospitalization; hyperactivity; hypersensitivity; imaginary friends; loss and grief; lying and stealing; manipulation; nightmares; school readiness; self-esteem; separation; sibling rivalry; sleep problems; speech problems; stomachaches; television; toilet training.
Part Three: "Allies in Development" explains the important role of each person in your child's life: fathers; mothers; friends; caregivers; grandparents; doctor.
Based on three decades of practice and internationally respected research, this book offers deep understanding of child development from a physical, emotional, cognitive and behavioral point of view.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 463-466) and index.

A blues legend plugs in with the Fishman Sonitone and Sonicore SystemThe Epiphone EL-00 PRO Acoustic/Electric guitar is a direct descendent of Epiphone's original line of flattops going back to the golden age of acoustic guitars in the 1930s. The smaller "parlor" or "blues box" style acoustic guitar is favored by blues players of all eras for its compressed, woody tonal quality, short scale, and comfortable weight which makes it ideal for fingerpicking or the bark of a bottle neck slide. Now featuring the Fishman Sonitone soundhole preamp and Fishman Sonicore pickup, the EL-00 PRO Acoustic/Electric can now plug-in and be heard on any size stage with first class acoustic/electric sound. Case not included.

Flickr photo by ODHD Breastfeeding and I have a complicated relationship. We have sort of a love/hate thing going on.
That's because breastfeeding never came easily to me or my babies. It took a lot of effort, all of my patience, a few tears, and a breast pump to get us on the road to doing it successfully.
I stuck with it, though, because I thought it was the best thing I could do for my babies. An added benefit? Breastfeeding burns calories!
During pregnancy, women gain extra pounds to store energy for producing breast milk. For some women, breastfeeding makes it easier to lose weight, since additional calories are used. This is, of course, true if you aren't eating a bowl of ice cream after a 3 a.m. feeding. (Yes, I used to do that because I like to eat ice cream while I'm up watching bad television.)
Experts such as the La Leche League advise that breastfeeding mothers should not consciously try to lose weight during the first two months postpartum. This extra time in the early months allows a mother's body to recover from childbirth and establish a good milk supply.
Once you're ready, breastfeeding, along with a healthy diet and moderate exercise, can help you shed those unwanted pounds. Depending upon your metabolism and your baby's feeding schedule, breastfeeding moms can burn an extra 200 to 500 calories a day. Not bad for something you can do while sitting on the couch!
Did you or do you rely on breastfeeding to help you lose baby weight?
It's great that you were able to lose weight while breast feeding, but count yourself lucky about the weight loss. I disagree that all women lose weight because of breastfeeding. I breast fed my 5 children for the first year of their lives. I ate healthy and did not overeat yet until I stopped breastfeeding, I was unable to lose. I ate the same and lost weight, the only change was that I was no longer breastfeeding. I also had full heavy menustration while breastfeeding, which many women do not.
Not all women's bodies handle breastfeeding the same and I think that La Leche League is setting women up for disappointment when they say that you will. I don't regret breastfeeding and greatly encourage it. The bonding and health benefits for my children was well worth it.
like the previous poster, my sister always held onto the weight until she finished breastfeeding.
i was a lucky one, i lost my baby weight plus 30lbs, in the first 2 months of having my 5month old. i haven't seen this weight since college. it's great. i guess it's from the breastfeeding (i didn't bf my first), or the stress of having a toddler and a newborn, and forgetting to eat... one of the two. :)
I didn't RELY on it, but it sure helped. Some womens bodies hold on the extra throughout bf'ing because their body naturally wants to have a store. It sure is nice when it works but it's not something I would tell women to rely on for weight loss... so much goes into it!
I did not necessarily rely on breastfeeding to lose weight. However, I was aware that it is an added benefit! :D Not only does your baby receive the best nutrition possible, but you lose weight at the same time!
I've learned to never rely on anything outside of good eating habits and exercise. Breastfeeding was good for my kids, however, it didn't do ANYTHING to help *me* lose any weight.
I didn't rely on breastfeeding to lose the weight when my daughter was born, but that 50+ pounds was gone within a few months. Same with my 6 week old. I gained 37 pounds with him, and have lost 30 pounds as of Sunday, and I definitely am not excercising (unless you count playing with my daughter at the park almost daily) and still have my late night ice cream:)
I didn't rely on breastfeeding to lose weight. I went from pregnancy to breastfeeding in a cycle for 6 years. I gained and lost the recommended 20-25 lbs with all of my pregnancies.
i didnt breastfeed
I didn't rely on breastfeeding to lose baby weight. I think it helped though. I only gained 26 lbs during pregnancy and lost 20 of it when I delivered. The last 6 lbs fell of pretty immediately. Now I'm about 10 lbs lighter than I was before I got pregnant.
i'm currently breastfeeding my 1 month old not relaying on loosing weight right now but i sure do want to loose some later on =-D
I create a special savings account
I put a little away at a time
I cut corners until I can afford it
Save? Who has money to save?
I plan to put it on my credit card and love the benefits of the reward program

Markainion said...
For player storylines the best Worgen option, is the Gilneas human population getting cursed with the worgen curse. Then being saved by Elune but being stuck in Worgen form but with a sole, the reason I say this is because the Gilneas did not help out in the later wars so they are likely look out as cowards. I deserve to be called cowards for not helping the world in there time of need.
So look at it this way: You were once human, but a coward and didn't want to fight the great evils destroying your world. You hid behind your wall; hoping everything would just work out. But an evil curse entered your lands. Scared you did nothing as countless fellow citizen died around you. But you began to realize that something wasn't right, your friends were all dying around you, but all you had was weird horrid dreams.
One day some Night Elves Druids entered your realm. The offered hope, but at a price, the price was your remaining human body, but you would regain your sole. So from that time forward you lived your life as Worgen, being constantly reminded of the price the world suffered because of your cowardice and complacency of the world around you.
Can tell me that not a good back story for any player character.
The Gilneans were not Cowards and were/are not Hiding behind the wall.
The reason the wall was built was to cut off the other Human Nations who Greymane believed to be Leeching their resources and Laying their problems upon Gilneas. Also He believed the Gilnean army could handle any threat.
Not to mention the fact that Gilneas had always been regarded as one of the strongest Human nations.
Markainion said...
Lord Genn Greymane only sparingly helped out in the second war and didn't send any help during the third war. Even though a small brigade of Gilneas volunteered to do so during the third war. Genn Greymane was strong enough to help out during the wars more than he did, but felt he was strong enough to handle the treat by himself.
But something happened to the Gilneans that they were not strong enough to stop. So either way if I was a citizen of this former strong state. Which did little to help during he the last major war. I would consider the curse was result of either cowardice or self-absorption, either way the story plot of the character fits.
Is Being an Isolationist nation something to be cursed for? Heh; looks like you better give the heads up to Pandaria.
I still see no Cowardice either way that you mentioned; Genn sent an token troop Force to fight in the second force that was Equal in size to that of Alterac's. And how would the Gilneans even know about what was happening in the Third War? Lordaeron didn't even know until it was too late. Not to mention the fact that Stromgarde, Stormwind, and Kul Tiras didnt send any aid as far as we know.
The 'Gilneas Brigade' in WC3 Is normally regarded as a group of Dissidents who were convinced to flee to Kalimdor with Jania.
Being an Isolationist nation is hardly something to be cursed for?
"But something happened to the Gilneans that they were not strong enough to stop. "
Once again; no lore points to this at all, the closest thing that does is Brann hearing whispers of a Naga Invasion striking Gilneas. No mention of Worgen at all.
I Play one of my characters as one of the Survivors of the Gilneas Brigade and i do encourage More Gilnean RP'ers. Or Kul Tirians, Stromgardians, Alteracians, I get so sick of Boring Stormwind/Lordaeron backstories :P.

Electronics Show 2005
Students in the Electronics class displayed their projects for the campus and community in a grand show in the Science Hall lobby.
Projects were varied–robotics, electronic music, and balancing acts. Many of the projects required significant mechanical design and construction.
This year every project used microcontrollers–single chip computers that can be programmed to respond to sensor inputs and can control outputs. For those in the know, we used the PIC 16F88 programmed in PicBasic Pro.
Much work was spent on interfacing, learning the hardware and software details involved in sending serial data signals. Besides "standard" serial we had to learn the PS/2 mouse, MIDI musical instrument, and I2C sensor protocols.
For the first time we had a panel of judges (identified by hardhats) to make some special awards.

MIDI Hendrix Guitar Playing Robot
Matthew Rody
MIDI (musical instrument digital interface) is the language that electronic musical devices use to communicate with each other. Messages are sent through a single wire in the form of three bytes of information: the status byte, which says to turn a note on or off, and two data bytes, the first saying what note to play and the second saying how loudly to play that note. The Microprocessor of MIDI Hendrix receives MIDI messages from an electric keyboard or some other MIDI device and interprets them. Then it sends out signals to 10 different solenoids, four of which control "capos" and six of which control "pluckers." The solenoids then move back and forth to capo or pluck a string in a way to play the note that was sent to the microprocessor. Rock on.
Antigravity Stick
David Glick
Overall Winner
The Anti-Gravity Stick circuit and apparatus keep an ordinary broomstick upright by adjusting the position of its base. The position of the top of the stick is measured using ultrasonic rangefinders, and the microcontroller uses this information to control the servomotors which move the platform. The project succeeded in balancing the stick in two dimensions for minutes on end.
Mouse Interface
Israel Ditzler
Moshe Hodges
The mouse interface is a connection of a standard PS/2 Mouse used on most computers to a microcontroller. Microcontroller communicates with the mouse sending the information needed for the mouse to start sending coordinate information. The microcontroller then reads the coordinate information that is sent by the mouse and processes it. That coordinate information is then inputted into a 2D Plotter which plots the X and Y movements of the mouse, resulting in a plot that follows the mouse.
Air Harp
Jacob Stucky
Josiah Ditzler
Elegance Award Winner
Notes are played by "plucking" laser beams instead of strings. The laser beams are hitting photo conductors whose resistance changes depending on how much light is hitting them. This change in resistance then gets translated into a digital "on" or "off" signal that is read by the microcontroller. The microcontroller then outputs a signal that can be read by almost all electronic musical instruments. This signal uses MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) which is standard for reading and sending electronic musical signals.
Travis Weaver
Ben L Yoder
Robo-Pendage is a servomotor-controlled robotic arm that is designed to roughly reproduce the motions of a human arm through a sleeve worn by the operator. Flex sensors, which change resistance based on the degree to which they are bent, are mounted on the sleeve and supply data on the position of the arm and hand to the main microcontroller chip. The main chip then processes this data independently of timing constraints required by the servomotors on the robotic arm. The servomotor positions are then sent from the main chip to the servomotor control chip, which drives the servomotors used to position the robotic arm.
Robot Line Follower
Jono Mast
Eric Krabill
Gnar-Bot is a line following and maze solving robot. It has three infrared lights and sensors mounted between the front wheels. Different materials and colors reflect the light differently which enables it to tell the difference between lines and the floor. The sensor is connected to the microcontroller chip which sends signals to the wheels based upon the incoming signals from the sensor. The chip contains different programs which alter the signals sent to the wheels, allowing Gnar-Bot to follow or avoid lines, navigate through a maze, or to be controlled by the onboard buttons.
H2O2 Robot Squirter
David Bontrager
Mitch Yoder
Creativity Award Winner
H2O2 is a fully automatic robot capable of delivering a short burst of water in the direction of a heat source (such as a person, or a warm wall). This is accomplished through the use of a directional heat sensor on a servo that sweeps the sensor back and forth. To solve the problem of running into obstacles, a distance sensor is included on the sweep arm to "watch" where the robot is going.

text: Lesson #87: Practice with the Past Tense Today we're just going to practice over and revise what we've learnt recently about the Past Tense in Hindi. I'm going to be showing you a lot more examples including some more complicated sentences! Remember in Hindi the Past Tense is different for Transitive and Intransitive Verbs. We learnt what this word 'Transitivity' means back in Lesson #79. Understanding what Transitivity is can be quite difficult and confusing, but it's very important! Let's start with the verb सोना sonaa - To Sleep. Is this Transitive or Intransitive? Do you know? To Sleep is intransitive. Why is that? Because as we saw in Lesson #79, we don't 'sleep something'. We learnt about the Past Tense for Intransitive Verbs in Lesson #81. So we know how to say… मैं सोया main soyaa - I slept (Male) & मैं सोई main soee - I slept (Female) But usually our sentences are going to be a bit longer than that, so are you ready to see some more complicated sentences? तुम कहाँ सोईं? tum kahaan soeen - Where did you sleep? (to a female) - Literally this is 'You slept where'. Remember that तुम tum is always plural! And we could reply with… मैं अपने घर पर सोई main apne ghar par soyee - I slept at my house (Female). Can you remember the tricky word अपना apnaa? If not head back to Lesson #52! क्या अक्षय यहाँ सोया? kyaa akshay yahaan soyaa - Did Akshay sleep here? हाँ, यहीं सोया haan, yaheen soyaa - Yes, (he) slept right here. Ok wow. That might look like a bit of a mess but hopefully you can see how easy it is to build fuller sentences from what we already know. Ready to look at a Transitive Verb example? The Verb 'to buy' in Hindi is ख़रीदना khareednaa. Why is this verb Transitive? Because, as we learnt in Lesson #79, we can 'buy something' which makes it Transitive! We learnt how to make Past Tense sentences with Transitive Verbs in Lesson #83. So we know how to say… मैंने ख़रीदा mainne khareedaa - I bought (said by either male or female!) Do you think you could use this to say 'What did you buy'? It's easy… आपने क्या ख़रीदा? aap ne kyaa khareedaa - What did you buy? Literally this is 'You what bought'. Following so far? Now how would you say 'I bought a book'? That's right…. मैंने किताब ख़रीदी mainne kitaab khareedee - I bought a book (said by either male or female!) But wait, what's happened here? Well because the word for book - किताब kitaab is feminine we use the feminine version of the verb - ख़रीदी khareedee. Can you remember that we learnt in Lesson #83 that the verb in Transitive Past tense sentences agrees with the object and not the subject! रीमा ने दो बड़े टमाटर ख़रीदे reemaa ne do bare tamaatar khareede - Rema bought two big tomatoes. Can you see here that the verb agrees with the Plural Masculine 'Tomatoes' - We use ख़रीदे khareede. So how would you say 'Did you buy three cats'? That's right, it's just… क्या तुमने तीन बिल्लियाँ ख़रीदीं? kyaa tumne teen billiyaan khareedeen - Did you buy three cats? How did you find all that? Hopefully you can understand and follow each example! The Past Tense in Hindi can be very confusing so don't worry if it hasn't 'sunk in' yet. Please head over the the Intermediate Grammar section where you can find all the lesson on Transitivity and the Past Tense if you have any difficulties! And as usual, don't hesitate to leave a comment below if you want any more help or explanation!

Hitman Reviews
7M Pictures
You should see this movie for the action and gunfights... oh, and for Olga Kurylenko.
Full Review | Original Score: 3/5
Washington Post
A thoroughly entertaining experience.
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
French director Xavier Gens keeps the action riveting and spectacular.
A slick take on sniping, strangling, homicidal body doubles, and a seductive Moscow sex slave in distress, the property of a local baddie, whom the hero invites to tag along from inside his car trunk, don't ask.
Cinema Signals
There's a certain primitive simplicity to it, the editing is awkward in spots, and it derives from a game, but I flat-out enjoyed it.
Full Review | Original Score: 4/5
Kaplan vs. Kaplan
For what it is --- a fast-paced, violent thriller, based on a video game, of all things --- it's actually entertaining.
Urban Cinefile
Fans of the video game on which this film is based may get a kick out of the cinematic treatment, but even these low level kicks will be tempered by the film's failure to articulate its main plot points or to create characters we care about.
Advocate (Baton Rouge, LA)
Hitman's performances outclass the film's video-game origins. These are credible characters, not video drones.
Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4
Daily Mirror [UK]
It might just be one of the best videogame adaptations ever made, which isn't saying much. It could also be the film of the week which, come to think of it, isn't saying much either.
Full Review | Original Score: 3/5
Shadows on the Wall
A bit po-faced and unremarkable; more outrageousness and humour would have helped.
Full Review | Original Score: 3/5
Chicago Sun-Times
Hitman stands right on the threshold between video games and art. On the wrong side of the threshold, but still, give it credit.
Full Review | Original Score: 3/4
The Stranger (Seattle, WA)
Rooted firmly on the positive side of good and dumb ... Whether you go for it or not may ultimately depend on your feelings about a movie that helpfully explains its locations with onscreen captions like "London: England" and "Moscow: Russia."
Worcester Telegram & Gazette
There's enough intelligence behind it that you don't feel you're just waiting to hit the reset button.
| Original Score: 2.5/4
It delivers top-notch action, dazzling gunplay and lots of fireworks. What more could we ask for?
| Original Score: 3/5
Time Out
Full Review | Original Score: 2/5
Full Review | Original Score: 1/5
Hitman the film is a conventional action thriller that seeks to do nothing more than entertain with an assortment of carnage and sex, at which it is moderately successful.
Full Review | Original Score: 5.5/10
Boston Phoenix
Awkwardly paced and muddled.
Full Review | Original Score: 2/4
Cinema em Cena
Olyphant faz o poss�vel com um personagem unidimensional por natureza, mas o roteiro absurdo e a dire��o fr�gil de Gens, que parece acreditar que cortes r�pidos substituem arcos narrativos, conferem ao filme um ar de produ��o feita para DVD.
| Original Score: 1/5
Though stylishly shot and occasionally exciting, this adaptation of the popular video game can only go so far with its mindless violence and cardboard characters.

I love making watermelon margaritas. When I am done with a watermelon (because there is always leftover when you buy a big one) I pull the fruit and pulverize and set it in ice trays then bag the cubes for later use. When I want margaritas I toss in some watermelon cubes, a splash of OJ, a squeeze of agave nectar, and some Patron in a blender. Serve in a lime and salt rimmed mason jar.
Yes, please, one for me. That looks so good!
Interesting. I'm having a BBQ this weekend and might have to try this. I'm also making sangria, which will get everyone good and schnokered!

Destruction and Construction
It's funny how a lot of politicians say the government
can't create jobs but then freak out when there's a
chance military-related spending in their districts
might be lessened.

I'm Outta There
I retired from my job at Centurylink today. It was
exactly thirty years ago that I started with Pacific
NW Bell. Later we became US WEST and then Qwest and
most recently, Centurylink.
It was a good job and I met lots of great people.
But it's definitely time for a change. I want to
get in better shape, write a novel and maybe do some
volunteer or political work.

I think the Republicans are starting to run out of groups

then the government workers, then the union members and now everybody who makes too little money to pay federal income tax. That corner they've painted themselves into
is starting to get pretty small.

President Obama, the US military and NATO have freed Libya

Christians and Cults
I always find it somewhat amusing when mainstream Christians
refer to Mormonism as a "cult".
I'm sure the Romans and Greeks and Egyptians referred to
Christianity as a cult when it first started. Cults are
basically religions that are still small enough you can
kick them around a bit and call them names.
On the other hand, I think Mormons need to be honest
about how much their religion differs with regular
Protestant and Catholic denominations. After all,
Mormons don't just believe the saved will be with
God, they believe they will BE gods and godesses.

The Supersensitive Super Rich
I find it odd that the Right is so defensive about income

complain about the situation. They end up proving what

goin through currently.

I don't think anybody has really been able to define what the

Maybe that's good. Maybe that's a sign that this isn't a
problem that can be solved with a few talking points or
just another watered down piece of legislation.
Maybe, deep down, we all know that the power held in this
country is grotesquely out of balance. And only feet on

Technological solutions can help with compliance, Mack says. PCI requires some organizations to conduct quarterly vulnerability scans, for example. But some solutions can allow organizations to conduct scans monthly, weekly, and even more frequently. Integration can involve conducting compliance efforts in "smaller batches throughout the year versus huge batches when it comes as a surprise to you."
Even organizations already in compliance with the existing guidance cannot rest on their laurels. Starting January 1, organizations will need to follow a new second version of PCI DSS. Most of the changes are in areas such as documentation, says Mack.

The Antonym of Forgetting: Global Perspectives on Human Rights Archives (Day 1)
Friday, October 18, 20139:00 AM - 5:30 PM
This two-day symposium will explore the complex political, ethical, legal, and cultural challenges faced in the creation, preservation, and use of records documenting human rights crises. In bringing together for the first time an international cadre of experts whose work addresses archival issues in a broad range of countries—South Africa, Cambodia, East Timor, Indonesia, Bosnia, Croatia, Rwanda, and the United States—the project will develop interdisciplinary and cross-cultural scholarship and provide a framework for archivists, human rights activists, and scholars dealing with records documenting human rights abuse around the world. Participants include Kok-Thay Eng from the Documentation Center of Cambodia, Hilmar Farid from the Indonesian Institute for Social History, and Baskara T. Wardaya from Universitas Sanata Dharma.
This event is free and open to the public.
The symposium was made possible by support from the University of California Pacific Rim Research Program, UCLA Center for Information as Evidence, UCLA Center for Southeast Asian Studies, Charles E. Young Research Library, UCLA African Studies Center, and UCLA Library Special Collections.

"Seven" She said shaking her head "Close though Tony." She smiled at him as she pulled out of the parking spot. She listened to him agree to the idea of the apartment. She looked over at him when she was at a stop light "I knew you would like the idea" Celle said before she started driving again "So you mum's, my mum's or right out for drinks?" She questioned.
Tony scoffed. "Have you really got to ask me that, Chelle?" He smirked and leaned back in the seat of the car. "Drinks." He hadn't really been out partying for a while, maybe once or twice since leaving Bristol. It just didn't appeal to him - not without the gang anyway. Where was the point? Sure he had mates over at Uni and they were good to invite around for a smoke, but otherwise it was just pointless. They were dull compared to the motley crew he had back in Bristol.

Basically, the Zeroz is a card holder with a stretchy cash strap secured to one side. They are available in 4 different thickness to accommodate more or less cards. I can't really tell from the website how you retrieve the cards from the wallet though. I guess you just poke your finger in one side to push them out. The Zeroz wallets are available in several colors and designs and are priced from $26-$30. If there's anyone out there that happens to own one, please let us know what you think.

2004 Chevrolet Venture from North America
All in all, it still gets me where I need to go
The cup holder face came off.
The seat side that holds up the plastic broke.
The windows have problems going up. I had to replace one window motor, and the window shifts out of place going up; I think it comes off track a little, but not sure.
The back leaks very bad; I think it was in a accident. I saw white paint on the back rubber, and there is mold growing where the carpet has got wet.
The rubber on the door has fallen off.
Once I was in the back and the doors all locked automatically; good thing I wasn't outside, as the keys were laying on the dash and my child was inside.
The transmission I believe has been acting up; it seems to slip and then catch with a clunk while I'm driving, although I was told it could be a torque converter.
I am a single mom on a very tight budget, and I fund raised to get the van for my special needs daughter; she is in a wheel chair, I needed a reliable van, and so far thank god it has been, but I know it's going to need work. I got the van with 38000 on it, and I've now got over 200,000. A lot of these problems happened within the first year.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know

Chutney is awash in golden light, from its sheer curtains that cascade down the floor-to-ceiling windows to its high-backed booths. This relaxing environment is home to a menu of Pakistani and Indian dishes simmered atop stoves and cooked in a traditional clay oven. Chefs toss lentils and okra in a Punjabi-style curry, and soak boneless chicken in a special Bombay sauce. Beef, lamb, and prawns marinate in myriad spices before cooking in the tandoor. Chutney?s chefs double down in the kitchen for catering services that feed guests during office meetings, wedding receptions, and it's-almost-my-birthday parties.
At Chaat Bhavan, a full menu of Indian fare avoids meat as fastidiously as if it were a banana peel on a video-game highway. Snacks include masala chaat, a spicy fruit chutney served with crispy wafers, and missal pav, a mixture of black lentils and crispy noodles. Pan-cooked spinach paratha bread sops up soupy entrees such as the chana sag, which pairs garbanzo beans with fresh spinach, and the aloo gobi mattar, a union of potatoes, peas, and spices. Everything on Chaat Bhavan?s bill of fare is meat-free, and many eats also accommodate Jain customs and veganism.
Biryani Bowl's chefs dish out a diverse menu of pan-seared and tandoor-cooked Indian cuisine, each plate rife with aromatic spices and helpings of steaming rice. The restaurant's eponymous dum biryani dishes arrive to tables flanked by hearty vegetables, chicken, mutton, or shrimp, along with savory curries, tandoori delicacies, and rice dishes to suit varied tastes. Sweet-and-salty lassis complement Indo-Chinese dishes and desi wok noodles, as ice cream dishes and gulab jamon conclude meals more sweetly than a tiny fairy driving you home while humming lullabies.
Tiranga Cafe's chefs dedicate themselves to re-creating the same comfort food Indian families eat at home. They accomplish this by tailoring the amount of heat in each entree to accommodate diners' requests. These dishes include aromatic curries that brim with chicken, fish, and vegetables, and wraps rolled tightly around cores of lamb, shrimp, or paneer.
Kids Castle Indoor Fun Center plays host to thrilling play dates and birthday celebrations that tucker out youngsters as they pin-ball through a multicolored bounce house, practice critical thinking in a puzzling jungle-gym maze, and feverishly smash buttons at the arcade. The arcade's stationary, hydraulic motorcycles send kids racing down a virtual countryside, where they'll pass pixilated trees and shake their fists at jaywalking scarecrows. Kid Castle's in-house kitchen, private party rooms, and party tables allow children and their parents to replenish spent energy over pizza, ice cream, and snacks. The center's fun specialists make [birthday-party] http://gr.pn/rt0NaB) planning easier by helping festoon party rooms with decorations and organizing fun games to ensure a memorable celebration.
Bombay Garden's ties to authentic Indian cuisine run deep. Originally born in the small Indian town of Khanoor, owner Balkar Tamber grew up learning how to cook alongside his mother. That knowledge especially came in handy when he embarked on his first professional culinary foray, a roadside eatery in the Punjab region of India. Once he immigrated to the US in 1990, he brought along more than a handful of those family recipes and opened his first Bombay Garden restaurant fueled by a deep love for the rich and diverse culinary traditions of his homeland.
The menu features a selection of iconic Indian dishes from virtually every corner of India. On one page of the menu, delicate crepe-like dosas made from fermented lentil and rice flour evoke the flavors of India's southern regions. And when it comes to northern Indian recipes, the chefs bake skewers of yogurt-marinated chicken and other meats in a traditional tandoor—a cylindrical clay oven heated by a well-trained dragon. The same blends of flavorful spices that perk up Balkar's chicken, lamb, and seafood dishes also appear throughout the restaurant's vegetarian entrées: homemade cottage cheese and green peas meld in a spiced gravy sauce and split lentils benefit from the chefs' one-two punch of garlic and ginger.

HTC One launched
Sydney: The smartphone market might seem like it is getting crowded, but that hasn't stopped handset makers from trying to corner every niche they can find. HTC is one of the fastest growing brands in the smartphone category. In its boldest move yet, the Taiwanese company has launched the HTC One, a smartphone with more than 100 new updates since its predecessor the HTC One X. The launch of the new flagship was done here in the midst of special invitees from around the world.
The new 4.7-inch smartphone competes with a brand new crop of devices including the BlackBerry Z 10 when it comes to features and the Apple iPhone 5 when it come to convenience and cult following. In an attempt to get users to stay updated with news as well as social activity all the time, the company has dedicated one home screen to Highlights where you can pick your favorite topics or people and follow all that's happening around them.
The device sports a unibody construction with a thin bezel and is bound to draw comparisons with the Apple iPhone. The new HTC One comes with a Full HD capable 4-meg rear camera with which HTC has introduced interesting new tweaks. As part of the post processing edits, HTC One lets you crop people who might be photobombing the picture.
In a very 'Harry Potter-esque' way, it gives you the option of viewing your still photos captured as moving images. Apart from the Blackberry BB10 which currently lets you go a couple of icroseconds in time to chose just the right frame in its time shift feature, no other smartphone in the market offers this feature currently.

1. Set an exact time to get out of bed. If you normally get up at 11am, it's unrealistic to start abruptly getting up at 6am. Think about what time you'd like to be getting up in the morning, and work up to it. Try to wake up 30 minutes earlier every week, until you get to the desired time.
2. Move up your bedtime in sync with the time you plan to get up. Seven to eight hours of sleep is the recommended dosage for maximal productivity (with a few super-human exceptions). So if you're getting up at 6am, you'll want to go to bed by 11pm at the latest. If you try to go to bed at midnight and get up at 5am, you're eventually going to run into some problems.
3. Get out of bed immediately. The moment that you start procrastinating – read: hit the snooze button – it's very easy to convince yourself of a multiplicity of reasons why you wouldn't want to get out of bed yet. Don't even allow those thoughts to kick in – just get up!
4. Expose yourself to sunlight. Sunlight is key to adapting your circadian rhythms. If you're having trouble getting up, don't close your blinds all the way, so you have some natural light as your wake-up call. Once you're up, a short walk (or run) outside helps reinforce the message with your body.
5. Develop a routine for your morning. Whether it's taking in the sunrise, brewing a cup of tea and reading the paper, or walking to the café down the street for a cup of joe, you're more likely to continue to get up early if you develop a brief routine that is, in itself, a reward.
6. Stick with it. Know going in that it's going to take some time to adapt to waking up early – probably about 30 days. Don't expect to feel bright-eyed and bushy-tailed from Day 1. But if you stick with it, getting up early is likely to become one of your favorite rituals.
