Step 1: What you need...
- Rifle,Shotgun or Assault Rifle. I'd prefer a good reliable sks carbine. semi auto, 7.62x39 mm ammo (same as the ak) and a five round clip. Good all around package...and it's a relatively cheap to get.
- 300-600 rounds of ammo. Because you never know.
- Good comfy backpack. You'll need a lot of storage for you gear.
- Sleeping bag. You will have to sleep sooner or later.
- Ear plugs. To drown out the moaning of the undead.
- Red glow sticks. Good light source.
- Hachet or machete. Both make great close quarters weapons and both are excellent survival tools.
- Folding shovel. Another good close quarters weapon... also good for digging latrines.
- Local map. Preferably a state or provincial map with roads/backroads and bodies of water.
- Compass. To work with your map and help you navigate.
- Self powered flashlight and radio. You need to see and keep up with current events.
- Rope. You'll need a lot, say a few hundred feet. And make sure it's of good quality.
- 8' x 10' tarp. Makes a good, quick tent.
- First Aid Kit. Make sure its not a cheap one, and put it in a waterproof bag that gause won't do any good wet.
- 12 big thick garbage bags. Good for everything from waterproofing your pack to making a poncho, to making a shower.
- 2 Rolls Paper towels. Good for toilet paper and snot rags.
- 2 or 3 sets of spare clothing. Obvious reasons...
- Dehydrated/Non perishable Food. MREs, Ramen noodles, canned food, granola, beef jerky it's all good.
- 2 Litres of Clean Drinking water and a means of getting more. Meaning either have a filter kit, or purification tablets or a stove to boil water.
- Deck of Cards and a novel. You will get bored.
- 2 pocket knives. The uses are endless.
- Multitool. again they can do anything from opening cans to cutting wire.
- Credit Card. Who knows when you'll need plastic...and it can jimmy locks.
- 4 Burlap sacks. If you'd like to make a quick foxhole/barricade.
- Waterproof matches/ flint and steel. You'll need fire.
Zombies aren't the main problem
There slow weak and not the smartest... If you find a structure with a good well, farm/animals and Tools you should be set against zombies
Bandits are the real problem. If the zombies were gone, our economy would be jacked up.
Zombies can end if there cut off, but people wont if they reproduce.
aliens will be much much much more dangerous since they can travel through space
Optional: plenty of carrot, bean, corn, spinach, tomato seeds, provided that you live somewhere warm.
Use a gun
When you very first start your arm will get sore. But once your muscles build up, no more soreness, just deadliness.
Arms do wear out, arms can jam, & Arms do need cleaning.
Great XD
Headshots, while hard to achieve with a bow, are doable. I have an average of 4:7 human brain shots (between nose and top of head, full head width) at 20m. My bow shoots about 250 fps with 30 inch arrows for the first 20m. One of those arrows weighs about 300 grains, which makes their kinetic energy about 41 foot/pounds. According to ChaCha, around 33 ft/lbs are needed to crack the human skull (where I know not). That means that a pointed arrow would easily have enough power to make it into the brain. Lastly, an archer's arm doesn't get very tired. Mostly its the pulling fingers, but with a glove that pain is minimal.
However, one can EASILY carry 1000 rounds for a carbine. It is not that heavy to carry or hard to pack. It will take up maybe as much space as a quiver, but probably less. Also, if you have a gun, the rate of fire is greatly increased, and you can kill 30 zombies before reloading. If you are good and have trained with this gun, you could probably get about 30 kills in a minute or two.
All in all, i believe a bow is crossbow is good defensively, but the carbine is so much better if you are on the run.
Get a gun or become a zombies snack. Sure, ammo isn't something you can make on your own with a knife in the woods, but, you can also carry enough that you live long enough to find more. There's no risking infection reclaiming spent arrows covered in zombie brains. Sure, hitting a moving target while malnourished, scared out of your mind and starving is more difficult, even with a gun, but that's why a clip holds so many bullets, retries are expected. Also, double taps, if you learned anything from Zombieland...why they never use silencers in movies, I'll never understand, they may not make firearms silent but they sure reduce the sound, at least the whole town doesn't head your way. But I digress...
Anyway, gun strategy cannot really be compared to bow strategy because a big part of bow strategy is that you don't actually let zombies locate you in the first place. Then none of that fear or inaccuracy will crop up.
(there are materials that can be added to a bowstring to take the vibrational energy and disperse it, further reducing the "twang" while only reducing the arrow velocity a tiny amount i.e. fine down)
Making arrows would be a pain, besides you wil need someone for the wings and the tip
Do wings and arrow tips grow on trees? Nope
Guns do run out of ammo, and it wont last forever. Making firearms is a lost art, and there is no way that you will learn to make ammo for modern guns. However, with a good carbine or accurate rifle, you can take out multiple zombie in the time it takes for someone to take out one with a bow. Rifles are much more accurate and way more powerful than bows. If a zombie grabs you, you cannot kill it with a bow. You can, however, kill it with a pistol.
Bows and crossbows have their downsides and benefits too. They are slow, not nearly as accurate as rifles, and they take a lot of arm strength to use. A good bow with a forty or fifty pound pull takes a lot out of people, especially when you haven't eaten much. Whereas you can break a zombie's skull with the butt of a gun at close quarters, you can't do that with a bow. I you have ever tried to make a bow and arrows, you will find that it isn't easy. The bow needs to have a certain amount of curve, it needs to be flexible while snapping back tot shape quickly. The arrows need to be perfectly straight if you want them to fly in the general direction that you are pointing. Making arrowheads is very hard, while fire hardened wood tips might not be able to punch through a skull. Skulls are really hard, and you wont be able to get a clean shot through the eye. However, crossbows are much more accurate than bows, and if you can make arrows you have almost infinite ammo.
Bow and gun strategies are really not that different. The point is to survive. Just because someone uses a bow doesn't mean that they have infinite wisdom and therefore will not get eaten. You cannot assume that you will find food, or water, or shelter, or not encounter a horde of fifty zombies. In either situation, you need to get the hell out of there.
In the long run, having and using a crossbow is probably better. However, when trying to escape or kill a lot of zombies quickly, a gun is so much better.
Charcoal fire with bellows in a clay/earth bloomery can melt the slag but not the iron; it's a distillation process by which the slag trickles out and the iron stays. It is still plenty hot to soften the iron, though.
the Japanese can make steel, both high carbon and low carbon using charcoal and bellows in a clay/earth bloomery. The Romans and Vikings did as much aswell.
Where do you live? Almost every country has an immense stockpile of munitions. If zombies wipe out the human race in short order (like in just about every zombie story ever written) then there will not be that many people left to loot and plunder. Leaving years and decades worth of bad arse bullets to fuel my gun toting rage, bringing the hurt to the zombie hordes. If the military is still around you'll be hiding in the army base with them defending you, if they're not around, you're free to loot. It really depends how the whole infection goes down, but most versions of the mythology have the human race wiped out rather quickly. Aside from that, your biggest threat in dire times is not the zombies or the economy or whatever is causing the hardship, your biggest threat is other humans in the same dire straits as yourself. And well, if you take a bow to a gun fight...see 'The Untouchables" to find out how that will end up. Keeping in mind, it's way easier for a guy with a gun to avoid being seen due to the increased range and lethality. Having a gun doesn't mean you can't hide from zombies...they have silencers too.
It's actually really hard to get an arrow through a skull, much like a .22 cal, glances off the side will happen most often. There's really only a small area in the center skull (from whichever angle you fire from) that will have the force of the shot focused THROUGH the skull, it's like a 2" circle shooting straight from the front or back, maybe 3" from the sides. If you go lower it's under the brain, if you hit the left or right sides, or the top, the shot will most likely be deflected. Most people can't make that shot at any distance...there might be a handful of people on the planet that could do it with a bow or a xbow, even if they used a nice compound bow, I'd doubt there's even a handful who could do it reliably to a moving target.
At any rate, if you make it past the "first few months" and especially "decades" you're pretty much set. I mean you can't get that far without some skills and resources. Also, bows don't last forever. Especially bow strings. They wear out, string wear out fast. Replacements may or may not be easy to come by, depends on how things play out, but after "decades" you're out of luck too. Bullets and twinkies DO have a shelf life, so, we're all going to have to be self sustaining after a while.
how about a crossbow
crossbows are just as heavy as guns and need as much if not more maintenance. melee is really the way to go.
guns are loud they will bring you more zombies than you can handle unless you have a suppresser witch are illeagle in most state then go ahead and use a gun
I totally agree, bringing my Jaguar Takedown with plenty of arrows and hopefully a Katana too for backup.
You're right, not everyone can handle the recoil of a gun, but some of us can. I was 13 when I started learning how to shoot, I've never missed, and I handle the recoil better than my father and brothers-I'm a girl.
tbh gun recoil isnt too bad, especially with an SA-80/L98A2 which I have used quite a few times now, recoil is light, it is pretty accurate and easy too use
I don't mean to do that shooting, running stuff as a first resort. Only if I am already spotted and an excessive group is moving in, and there is nowhere to run.

Gov. Martin O'Malley (D) is reviewing a new group of potential delegates after the Prince George's County Democratic Central Committee this week revoked its nominee to fill a vacant seat.
A spokeswoman for the governor said he would take the new names submitted by the central committee to fill the District 24 seat that previously had been Del. Tiffany T. Alston's into consideration but had not made a choice as of Thursday.
In a contentious meeting Tuesday night that saw Greg Hall, the committee's original choice, trading barbs with committee Chair Terry Speigner, the central committee recommended three nonbinding choices for the seat. O'Malley is free to select one of them or choose his own candidate.
After the meeting, Hall criticized the governor for overriding the committee's selection process and taking the choice away from county residents.
"At the end of the day, the governor gets what he wants, and Prince George's County once again gets screwed," Hall said.
The committee voted to recommend Vicky L. Ivory-Orem, Clayton Aarons or Phillip Raines to fill the vacancy.
Ivory-Orem, who has served as a judge with the Prince George's County Orphans' Court since 2006, said she was approached by friends and community leaders and encouraged to pursue the seat.
"It was a resounding 'we need new energy,'" Orem said. She told the committee her community was tired of the negative publicity the county has received in recent years due to the misconduct of elected officials.
Both Aarons, an attorney and former prosecutor, and Raines, an IT project manager with the Department of Defense, sought Alston's seat in November.
"I don't seek this for a title. I don't seek this for money. I seek this to serve the community," Aarons told the committee.
Raines told the committee he brought a wealth of experience from the private sector and was qualified — "ready, willing and able to serve my community."
All three assured the committee their backgrounds were clean.
The committee's decision appears to bring the tumultuous saga of Hall's appointment to a close. He was elected by the central committee in November to fill the District 24 seat that had been Alston's, who was removed from office in October when she pleaded no contest to a charge of misusing campaign funds and was given a one-year suspended jail sentence on a separate charge of misusing General Assembly funds.
Hall ran for the seat in the 2010 primary, losing to Alston by 310 votes.
But controversy arose about criminal charges that Hall, a former drug dealer, faced as a younger man, including his implication in a 1992 shootout that left a teenage bystander dead, and O'Malley asked the central committee to withdraw Hall's nomination in November.
Hall sued to keep the committee from obeying the governor's request, and his complaint became entwined with a separate suit filed by Alston, who claimed because her suspended sentence was later converted to probation before judgment, the seat was rightfully hers.
A Circuit Court judge ruled against both Hall and Alston in December, and the decision was upheld by the Maryland Court of Appeals earlier this month.
Because the seat has been vacant more than 30 days, the governor has the right to appoint his choice to fill the vacancy.
After rescinding Hall's nomination at Tuesday's meeting, Speigner said nine people had asked to be considered for the seat and asked if anyone else present wanted to be considered.
That process drew criticism from committee member Dennis Whitley III, who said he was being asked to vote on new recommendations before the committee had had time to thoroughly vet the candidates.
Speigner said most of the names submitted had been written about in news accounts. "If you've been following this, you know who's expressed interest," Speigner said.
Hall asked if he could again submit his name for consideration, and Speigner refused, saying he already had been vetted as a candidate, and the process would be redundant.
A few minutes later, when Hall wished to speak, he fought for Speigner's attention with the words, "Hey, excuse me," which drew a rebuke from Speigner.
"It's not, 'hey.' I'm the chairman," Speigner said.
"I don't know what you are," Hall shot back.

MAVEN (Mars Atmospheric and Volatile EvolutioN) is the second mission selected for NASA's Mars Scout program, an initiative for smaller, low-cost, competed missions led by a principal investigator. Responsive to high-priority science goals listed in the National Academy of Science's 2003 decadal survey on planetary exploration, MAVEN will obtain critical measurements of the Martian atmosphere to help understand dramatic climate change on the Red Planet over its history.
Long ago, Mars once had a denser atmosphere that supported liquid water on the surface. At that time, Mars might have had environmental conditions to support microbial life, as the long-term presence of water is necessary to life as we know it. However, as part of dramatic climate change, most of the Martian atmosphere was lost to space long ago. Features such as dry channels and minerals that typically form in water remain to provide a record of Mars' watery past, but the thin Martian atmosphere no longer allows water to be stable at the surface.
MAVEN will provide information on how, and how, fast atmospheric gases are being lost to space today, and infer from those detailed studies what happened in the past. Studying how the Martian atmosphere was lost to space can reveal clues about the impact that change had on the Martian climate, geologic and geochemical conditions over time, all of which are important in understanding whether Mars had an environment able to support life.
The first spacecraft ever to make direct measurements of the Martian atmosphere, MAVEN will carry eight science instruments that will take measurements of the upper Martian atmosphere during one Earth year, equivalent to about half of a Martian year. MAVEN will also dip to an altitude of 150 km (93 miles) above the planet to sample Mars' entire upper atmosphere. The spacecraft will provide communications relay support for Mars Science Laboratory's Curiosity rover and the Mars Exploration rover, Opportunity (both on the surface of Mars), as well as for future landers and rovers on the Martian surface.

ST. MARYS – Even though donations received in this year's Coaches vs. Cancer campaign at the Elk County Holiday Basketball Tournament fell short of matching last year's total of $1,200, more than $800 was still able to be raised to benefit the local chapter of the American Cancer Society, according to Roben Daghir, volunteer survivor for outreach and awareness.
"It was wonderful," Daghir said of the community's continued support of promoting cancer awareness.
ST. MARYS – Ridgway ended 2011 with a win in the Elk County Holiday Tournament over Johnsonburg.
Johnsonburg returned the favor to end 2012.
The Rams scored the final 13 points in the fourth quarter to take a 36-23 win over Ridgway in the championship game of the tournament Saturday night at St. Marys Area High School.
It's Johnsonburg's second tournament title in four years, the Rams also won the county title in 2009.
"It feels good for the kids I'm sure," Johnsonburg coach Bill Shuey said. "I feel very proud that I was able to be a part of this."
ST. MARYS – The Elk County Catholic Lady Crusader basketball team successfully defended their Elk County Girls' Holiday Basketball Tournament crown by defeating the Johnsonburg Ramettes by a 44-27 score in the 2012 championship game played Saturday night at St. Marys Area High School.
The Lady Crusaders' defense was the key to the game as they limited the Ramettes to seven points in the second half of play.
"Holding Johnsonburg to seven points in the second half was definitely the key," said ECCHS coach Ken Pistner.
Doris M. Hasselman, 72, of 633 Evergreen Rd., St. Marys, died comfortably at home on Friday, Dec. 28, 2012 after a brief illness.
She was born Dec. 22, 1940 in St. Marys, daughter of the late Robert and Louise Solic Schneider. On Oct. 22, 1960 in the Sacred Heart Church, she married LeRoy G. "Tubby" Hasselman, who survives.
Mrs. Hasselman was a lifelong resident of the area and was a graduate of Central Catholic High School. She was a member of the Queen of the World Church. She enjoyed spending time with her family, sewing and playing cards with her friends.
ST. MARYS – Ridgway boys basketball advanced to defend their Holiday Tournament title with a 64-48 victory over St. Marys in the nightcap of the first day of the Elk County Holiday Basketball Tournament Friday night at St. Marys Area High School.
A strong start in the first quarter ultimately proved to be the difference in the game as Ridgway burst out to a 25-8 lead at the end of the opening eight minutes.
ST. MARYS – The Johnsonburg Rams advanced to the championship game of the Elk County Boys' Holiday Basketball Tournament with a 60-33 victory over the Elk County Catholic Crusaders Friday night at St. Marys Area.
The Rams will meet the Ridgway Elkers tonight at 8 p.m. for the county tournament crown. Elk Catholic will meet St. Marys Area this afternoon at 4:30 p.m. in the consolation game. Ridgway defeated St. Marys 64-48 in the other contest.
ST. MARYS – The Johnsonburg Ramettes coasted to an easy 59-13 victory over winless Ridgway in the first round of the Elk County Holiday Basketball Tournament.
With the win, Johnsonburg will play today in the title game against Elk County Catholic. The starting time is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. The Ramettes own a 47-44 victory Dec. 12 over ECC, the first win over their county rival in Johnsonburg head girls varsity basketball coach Mike Zilkofski's eight-year career.
The younger half of a father-and-son team charged with two Elk County arsons was in Elk County Court Friday seeking a reduction of his bail from a combined $125,000 cash to $12,500 secured by property.
Anthony Karl Milliard, 29, and his father, Francis Anthony Milliard, 55, are charged with setting fire to properties at 115 Front St. in Johnsonburg and 521 West Main St. in Ridgway.
Alfred F. Dubler, 81, of Montclair, Calif., died on Sunday, Dec. 23, 2012 at the Upland Rehab and Care Center.
He was born Jan. 11, 1931 in Ridgway, son of John and Doris Lindgren Dubler.
After significant snowfall hit Wednesday, area residents and members of the Ridgway Borough Department of Public Works took to the streets to clean up the snow. The Department of Public Works is reportedly responsible for at least 30 miles of roads in the borough.

Warning! There are several large capacitors in ATX power supplies, that will store a dangerous charge for a long time. Please let your power supply discharge, completely unplugged from the wall outlet, for a few days before opening it up. You can probably be seriously hurt, so please be very careful. I am not a lawyer, but I hereby release myself from as much liability as I can, for any sort of injury you sustain, or any trouble you get into.
Step 1: Background
Computer power supplies are Switch Mode Power Supplies (SMPS), which use high-frequency switching circuit elements to provide a high-quality output voltage, with good energy efficiency. One side effect of this technology is the minimum load requirement that each power supply has. In order to function properly, the power supply needs at least a very small electrical load connected to it. In other words, ATX power supplies will only work if you have something connected to it. We will be using a power resistor to provide this minimum load.
Also, modern power supplies do not simply have an OFF/ON switch, they have what is known as a "soft" power switch. This normally makes no difference to the user, as the computer behaves the same, but when you shutdown your computer, the motherboard can turn off the power supply when it has finished shutting down. This requires us to add our own power switch to the power supply chassis.
To protect our circuit from accidental (and careless!) short circuits, we will install some fuse-holders and fuses, which will disconnect the circuit supply lines if too much current flows. The size of the fuses are up to you, but a 1 amp fuse will work just fine for most circuits. You really should put fuses on all supply lines.
Update: While the diagrams show fuses on all voltage rails and no fuse on the ground line, when I actually built my power supply, I was young and foolish and only put a fuse on the ground wire. It's much safer and a better idea to put fuses on all signal lines and not the ground line. Thanks to many emails and messages on Instructables about this oversight.
Thank u for this =)
One question...
Can I add a regulator on the 12v? and connect a voltmeter? So I can change between 1-12v? Please let me know :) And maybe give me a link to a regulator =)
The LM317 is a popular adjustable voltage regulator, but the max output voltage is about 2 volts less than the input voltage, so you'd be limited to 0-10 volts. There maybe other types of regulators that have a smaller "dropout" voltage. This is a "linear" regulator, meaning it burns excess power as heat, equal to the current * (Vin - Vout), which can waste a lot of power. Maybe you do or do not care about that, but you might need a heatsink.
There are also switch-mode buck converters that don't waste as much power, since they are more efficient.
Good luck!
I have to turn it on and of 4 times and quikly to make it run, but hey, it is working!
I love this project. I have everything connected but I can only get it running if I turn on and off the switch quickly many times. It is the only way I can get it running. Any Idea why this happens?
I connected PSU's green wire with black (ground) wire, but not with the gray wire. Should that make any problems or is it OK?
Sorry, I forgot to write that I have already put LED, resistor and switch between green and black wire. When I pull the switch, the LED indicates that PSU is turned on and the fan in PSU starts spinning. Aparently, the LED indicates that PSU is turned on altough it's not connected with the gray wire.
BTW This instructable is great! :)
so if i use one wire from each source I can make 11 outlets on a box?? I know I couldn't USE all 11 at once, but I could use three or four as long as it didn't exceed psu amp capacity, yes??
Wire everything in parallel and you could have a thousand outputs on a box, provided that the total current load doesn't exceed the psu specs. You don't necessarily need to use the wires the box comes with. For instance, the molex connectors for the hard drives, floppy, optical drives etc. are daisy chained together in parallel, with more than one output on a single 5v or 12v wire. You can always extend that.
If you plan on using higher amperage, e.g. to power a car amplifier, it's better to wire all the outputs of same voltage into a single output. This mimics the effect of a thicker gauge wire, and eases the load on the psu.
Just a note to let you know I have added this instructable to the collection:
Encyclopedia of ATX to Bench Power Supply Conversion
>> http://www.instructables.com/id/Encyclopedia-of-ATX-to-Bench-Power-Supply-Conversi/
Take a look at about 70 different approaches to this project.
As far as I can tell you are the first to start this madness on instructables, congrats.
nice work...
I found that my power supply did not follow the standard colour coding.
i was able to look at the original ATC motoerboard connectors and the table at http://pinouts.ru/Power/atxpower_pinout.shtml and found that the purple, blue and white were non-standard on mine. double check with a meter before trusting the colours.
The problem is after i plug it it wont start working for another 10/15 seconds and when it starts the voltages are rather high 12-14;5-6;3-3,8
Is it because of the missing ressistor?
I'm not sure what is causing the start-up delay. You have tied the green wire (PS On) to a black wire (GND)? You might try adding a resistor load to the 5v or 12v wires.
I'm having a problem with one. I have the brown connected to the orange as it was in the plug, and the resistor on the red and grnd as it should be. But when I try to fire it up it will only spin the fan for a second and then quit. It won't stay running. Any suggestions? Much appreciated.
Perhaps try moving the power resistor to a different voltage rail, such as 12v or 3.3v? Maybe your particular power supply needs the minimum load on a different voltage line? Or it needs a minimum load on two or more of the voltage lines? I've never seen any specifications for this sort of thing, so you might need to experiment with your power supply. Let us know if you figure out what's going on.
There was a brown wire piggybacked onto an orange in the 20 pin plug so I after removing the plug I tied the brown wire to an orange. Also, I've tried the resistor on the 3.3v, the 12v, and the 5 volt. Also tried two resistors. One on 3.3v and one on the 5v at the same time. I've set this one aside for now pending a solution. If I can figure it out I'll post my results.
Thank you for your reply. I really needed that to finish building this power supply, as it will be only power supply as the "lap power supplies" are much more expensive. :
When I use the 10W100Ohm Resistor and connect the green line with the black line, Some noise comes for a second and then stops .. Sometimes the noise comes for 5 seconds and then the Fan starts but then immediately stops ! .. Is there something wrong with the Power Supply I am using or is it the resistor ?
It really sounds like the behavior you describe is due to insufficient load current, or perhaps some other problem. I would try a power resistor with a smaller resistance value to try and draw more current. You could try connecting two of your 10W 100 ohm resistors in parallel, producing an equivalent resistor of 20W 50 ohms that will draw 100 mA, and dissipate P = V * I = 5 * 0.1 = 0.5 watts shared across both power resistors. Good luck!
I always wondered why all tutorials use or suggest to use specifically a 10 Watt 10 Ohm resistor for dummy load. In high school I was taught: P=V*I => P=V*V/R
In this case: P= 5*5/10 = 2.5 Watts So I always wondered, why use a 10 Watt resistor instead of 5 Watt. Even considering possible spikes the resistor wouldn't be damaged. A constant load that produces 5 Watts of heat or more would be necessary to damage it.
What about use a incandescent bulb instead? Maybe hader to find soon becouse of led lamps tough.
Car light bulbs (back up/brake/dome, etc) are incandescent, durable, and run at ~12v. They also put off significantly less heat (less power waste) than that fat resistor.
As far as I know, the whole point of the constant minimum load is to always draw a small amount of current from the PSU to keep it from turning itself off. If the PSU requires at least, say, 500 mA current draw at 5v to keep it running, then it doesn't really matter whether you dump that power into a resistor as heat, or an incandescent bulb as a little bit of light and the rest as heat.
The real question is to figure out how much minimum current draw is needed on one or more of the power supply rails. I've never seen any definitive "minimum load" data, and for a hobbyist level project like this, the power resistor(s) aspect is much more of a "try things until it works reliably" process than anything else :-) Maybe there are some power supply datasheets we could check? I'm not really sure, but that would be useful.
Extraneous heat matters to the components inside of an enclosure. I realize we can use cooling fans to expel it, etc., which is using more energy to expel wasted energy (and another noisy fan harshing my zen-like bench experience). Using an external incandescent "Power On" indicator as a load seems appealing to both heat management as well as my tree-hugging sensibilities. ;)
I agree that "minimum current" data would be useful.
hi friend
Currently I'm working with some dc motors and i need negative voltage with high current, but when I connect the GND of the "power supply 1" to the 12V of the "power supply 2", to use the GND of "power supply 2" as -12V, i have a short circuit, and therefore the "power supply 2" is switched off. Is there some way to get -12V with high current?
Why do you need negative voltage? Most applications don't need negative voltage. If you are driving DC motors, you should be using an H-bridge circuit in order to drive the motors in either direction, without needing to use negative voltage. More details here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H-bridge
There are a lot of different H-bridge chips that are really easy to work with. Which chip to select depends primarily on how much current your motor needs, and what voltage (6v? 12v? 24v?).
thanks for your response :), the problem that i have is due to the driver that im using to control the motor, i have a analog output signal of -10v to 10v from the PC (data acquisition card), and the driver only converts this signal in "high current voltage" (the driver is similar to use the h-bridge but using two transistors), then i can control the movement speed and the rotation direction using one output, but for the driver i need -12V and 12V (with this voltage is enough because i don't require high speed) with high amperage, but when i use the 2 atx in parallel to get 12 and -12v volts one of them is turned off :S.... then i dont know if it is possible to connect two atx in parallel, or is necessary to do other thing
I see, sounds like old PLC-style control systems :-) How much current do you need? If it's just a few amps, you could probably build your own from an AC-AC transformer (down to about 15 volts AC) and then a full-bridge rectifier to generate the positive and negative DC voltages, and finally a 7812 and 7912 linear regulators (with heatsinks and in/out capacitors). If you need more current, you're probably going to have to drop some cash into a real power supply, which may be a little more difficult to find such a bipolar power supply.
Alternatively, I have used some fancy power supplies in EE labs where the negative terminal of the power supply wasn't permanently connected to AC earth ground (it included a little wire that you could use to connect them if you wanted). If you had two such power supplies, or a power supply with two outputs, you could connect them together in parallel like you mentioned.
I know some people have been having trouble getting their PSU to stay on. And this was my solution. I could not find any information on the current rating of the 12v CPU plug in the newer supplies. But when I put my load there it works for me. Maybe that is where the load needs to be for some newer supplies to stay on.
hello, this is a nice project that i'll try to make in these next days. Regarding the fuse matter, i see only a fuse holder in the front. Is that the only first fuse that you had connected to ground? The rest of them are in a 3x fuse holder or individually?
thank in advance
The way I built it, there was only one fuse, on the ground line, which isn't a great idea. What would be best is to put a fuse on each power rail (3.3v, 5v, 12v, etc). If you could find a 3x fuse holder that would really help to reduce the space needed for fuse holders. Good luck with your build!
I have LCD Controller that need 12V4A. Could I connect through 12V PSU directly?

Can't get JUST the img to be clickable. The whole Div is clickable?
I want just the image to be clickable, not the whole div. The image only takes up half of the width of the page, but the whole width of the page within the height of the image is clickable. In HTML I have:

Look at this idiot!

img.post_img { display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; }

Ok I had a play around and it seemed to be something to do with setting your img to
display: block;. Naturally it's an inline element. When I deleted that style rule, it got rid of the extra clickable space around the image. To get it working how you wanted, I had to give your
 a style of
text-align: center;. (This centers ALL children of that div) so I set your
text-align: left;.
It isn't pretty, but it depends how far along in writing your page you are which will determine how easy this is to change/implement.
The usual centering of an image setting a width and a margin of auto doesn't seem to work, which I've never seen before :s
Anyway, here is the code, give it a test and see what you think.
CSS:Code:

Look at this idiot!

It could be other styles affecting the centering. Are there any other styles which apply to the div?Code:#content { width: 50%; text-align: center; border: 1px solid black; height: 500px; padding: 2.5%; } #content h2 { text-align: left; } football_img { width: 300px; }

if you set it to display block without specifying a width most browsers are going to give the element a width of auto
so give img.post_img a set width if thats what you want.

@learningcoder, thank you for your detailed response, I thought it might have something to do with the display:block
@daninma, straight forward and to the point, i like it! i hadn't known that display:block and width: were such good friends, I'm learning this on my own as i go!

I don't backup enough.
I upgraded my desktop machine's internal HD to a terabyte beast a while back and I now use the old drive in an external case, connected via USB, to make the occasional image (I use Paragon. It's okay, but the current version seems to have abandoned incremental backups, so I'm stuck making the occasional image and I don't use it for file-based backups.)
The old drive isn't big enough for more than one image, and when I picked up a deal on eBay for an Iomega 500Gb Prestige USB drive with their backup software thrown into the deal, I thought it was a Good Plan.
The drive works fine.
Their realtime backup software -- QuikProtect -- works if I install it on my netbook (Win7 Starter) but the install to my desktop (Vista, 32-bit, 4Gb RAM) didn't just not work, it caused the first bluescreen I've had on the system.
I used to like Iomega.
I had to use System Restore, via Safe Mode, to get the system to boot normally again.
I posted a query on their forum and the only response so far is a suggestion that I might like to try the most recent version of the software, here's the download link. (Since I downloaded it on Tuesday, I can't imagine that I was that far behind the times. Easy response, for sure, but it assumes that I'm stupid and I'd FAR rather they assumed intelligence first.)
So I have two questions:
1. Does anyone with any experience with Iomega's QuikProtect have any suggestions as to whether I should put my system back in the firing line again or just give up with it?
2. If I wanted something that did a similar job -- effectively backing up a configurable number of generations of a configurable set of files and folders, in realtime on a "set and forget" basis -- to a USB-connected HD, would I have to hand over serious quantities of money? (Hint: I felt guilty enough about the new HD. Please don't make me hand over more extra cash than I have to!)
I guess if I forget the "realtime" bit, I could probably do the job for free with something like Toucan... it's just that I'll forget.

Signs and symptoms of multiple sclerosis vary, depending on the location of affected nerve fibers. MS signs and symptoms may include:
Most people with MS have a relapsing-remitting course, with new symptoms (relapse) that develop over days or weeks and usually improve partially or completely, followed by a quiet period (remission) that can last months or even years. Small increases in body temperature can temporarily worsen signs and symptoms of MS, but that type of event isn't a relapse.
About 60 to 70 percent of people with relapsing-remitting MS eventually develop a steady progression of symptoms, with or without periods of remission (secondary-progressive MS). The worsening symptoms usually include problems with gait. The rate of progression varies greatly among people with secondary-progressive MS.
Some people with MS experience a gradual onset and steady progression of signs and symptoms with no relapses (primary-progressive MS).

The Montgomery County Housing Opportunities Commission wants to tear down its aging 96-unit Holly Hall seniors' apartment complex in White Oak and replace it with a 475,000-square-foot mixed-use complex.
The new housing project is described as a "major gateway mixed-use development in accord with the goals of the White Oak Science Gateway Master Plan" in a letter housing commission executive director Stacy L. Spann sent to the Planning Board.
If approved, the new complex could be the first development to move forward under the master plan, which county officials hope will bring thousands of new high-paying jobs in the biotech and health fields to an area that has been bypassed by recent private development.
The Holly Hall proposal is among the list of outstanding issues that the board will consider Wednesday, when it meets in a final work session scheduled before recommending the White Oak master plan to the County Council.
The housing commission, which owns the county's public housing projects and runs its affordable housing program, is seeking a new denser zoning designation to allow it to proceed with its plan for Holly Hall, which sits between the Beltway to the south and the National Labor College to the north. At 475,000 square feet, the proposal would dwarf the 287,000 square feet allowed under new zoning recommended for the 4.4-acre site by planning staff.
The commission wants to demolish the existing 120,000-square-foot apartment building at 10110 New Hampshire Ave. and redevelop the property to serve mixed-income renters. The new project would be anchored by a larger market-rate rental housing complex that would preserve and subsidize the 96 units set aside for low-income seniors.
The Holly Hall project is separate from the neighboring Labor College, where the housing commission pulled out of an plan to acquire the 47-acre campus in partnership with Reid Temple African Methodist Episcopal Church.
Spann wrote that the higher zoning density is needed to make feasible a mixed-use project that would support affordable living for seniors.
His letter to the board said, "These residents live on very modest incomes; thus the revenue produced by those units often does not even account for the total expense of operating that unit. So, the increase in density we are requesting is particularly necessary to promote viability of redevelopment. HOC would use the preponderance of the new density to add market-rate units to cross-subsidize the replacement units and to help diversify the stock of rental housing in the Hillandale and White Oak areas."
The Montgomery County Planning Board is considering relaxed transportation capacity standards proposed by the Leggett administration to provide more flexibility for the development of a life sciences village in White Oak.
The department drafted an alternative review process — which the board will discuss when it meets Wednesday — that is designed to address the fact that the Fairland/White Oak policy area that covers most of the eastern county has inadequate road capacity, according to the county's 2012-2016 subdivision staging policy. That could block ambitious plans for new development anticipated under the White Oak Science Gateway master plan.
"The implementation of the desired vision for the White Oak Science Gateway Master Plan (as proposed) is challenged by the scale and expense of the transportation infrastructure necessary to facilitate future development plans," Gregg Ossont, deputy director of the Department of General Services, wrote in an Aug. 6 memo to the board.
The White Oak area could be transformed under the master plan, which would allow commercial development to grow to more than 25 million square feet from the existing 11.2 million square feet. The number of jobs could soar to 70,312 from the current 27,688. And the number of housing units could more than double to 15,688 from 7,118.
The department's plan would create an Implementation Working Group to develop an alternative mechanism that create an "equitably shared transportation funding program that adequately finances the necessary infrastructure improvements and creates alternatives that will encourage non single-occupant vehicle trips."
The group would also devise an adequate infrastructure financing and construction phasing plan to "ensure planning, design, and construction of the transportation infrastructure to serve the new development in a timely manner, as well as a procedure for allocating implementation costs to individual projects."
Finally, the plan would reduce staging requirements for bus and other transit alternatives. The administration proposes that a minimum 25 percent non-auto driver mode share must be attained for redevelopment and new development within the master plan area, rather than 30 percent as the planning department recommended.
Bethesda-based Washington Property Co. announced that it signed leases for more than 47,000 square feet at the downtown Silver Spring Plaza office building.
The 243,582-square-foot property — at 8757 Georgia Ave. — serves as headquarters for Social & Scientific Systems, which renewed its 88,230-square-foot lease in November.
The new leases signed at the 14-story building are:
• CLINIC, an urgent care medical center, which leased 22,152 square feet.
• Corinthian Colleges Inc., which renewed for 22,152 square feet.
• Dr. Robert Mantoni, who renewed and expanded his dental office for a total of 3,052 square feet.
The firm also leased 14,434 square feet to Vanguard Realty Group at 1390 Piccard Dr. in Rockville.
"We are on track to have an excellent year leasing our office portfolio of over 1.5 million square feet, while developing 1 million square feet of residential space," Derek Hendon, president of WPC Management, LLC, said in a press release.
The company leased more than 238,000 square feet last year.
Subaru of America Inc. signed a lease for 10,080 square feet of space at the Riverside Technology Park in Frederick to open a regional training center, according to Baltimore-based St. John Properties, Inc., which owns the building.
The facility, at 8430 Spires Way, will provide instruction for between 10 and 24 employees on any given day to support Subaru dealerships throughout the mid-Atlantic area.
The 490,000-square-foot office park sits on 44 acres between Interstate 270 and Interstate 70 on Monocacy Boulevard.
Danny Severn, leasing associate with St. John, represented the landlord. The tenant was represented by John Wilhide, John Boote and Ken Zirk of CBRE.

Hang tight!
Recipe by RCFoodie
"This is a really easy recipe that my mom made before the lemon bar 'rage' was on! Thick-skinned lemons work the best. I suggest using real butter and eggs, I've tried using eggbeaters--nowhere near as good!"
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

2 1/4 cups
all-purpose flour
1/2 cup
confectioners' sugar
1 cup
butter, softened
1 1/2 cups
white sugar
1/2 cup
lemon juice
1 tablespoon
lemon zest
This is a fairly standard and very reliable recipe for classic lemon bars. Any criticism of either too much crust, not enough filling, too sweet or tart, or not sweet or tart enough is purely subjective, and can easily be tweaked to suit individual tastes and preferences. Having made lemon bars many times in the past, and knowing that I like a thicker filling than the standard 4-egg filling for a 9x13" pan, I chose to use 1-1/2 times the filling for the same amount of crust, keeping all other measurements the same. I liked the addition of the lemon zest in this recipe, and found these to have the perfect balance of juice and zest for a just right sweetness and tartness. If possible, use either a non-melting powdered sugar, or sprinkle the powdered sugar right before serving, as it tends to melt into the bars quickly. I had a taste for something lemon today, and since these are so quick and easy to make they quickly satisfied the craving!
This was OK, but not great. Crust was a little too thick, it over powered the filling. Maybe it would be better if you used the same amount of crust and spread in a jelly roll pan, then made 1&1/2 times the lemon filling.
638 Ratings
This is an great, simple recipe that I make with my 3 year old. If you halve the lemons and then nuke them for 10 seconds or so you can get a lot more juice. Super good.
I thought these lemon bars were delicious! I followed the recipe as it was printed, although I decreased the temperature to 340 and kept a close eye on things, because my oven bakes a bit faster than it should. There was just the right amount of crust and just the right amount of lemony topping. Although some reviews stated they didn't look very nice, I disagree! They looked fine when they came out, and after they cooled the top was certainly firm enough to withstand a sprinkling of powdered sugar. I'm definitely going to make these again, and i'm also going to try them with a mixture of lemon and lime juices.
I'm not sure why everyone keeps cutting the crust recipe in half. It's just fine as long as you DOUBLE the filling. I didn't have enough lemon juice, so I used half a cup of lemon juice and half a cup of lime juice. They were fabulous. Make sure you whisk the filling until a creamy froth developes. When it bakes it will create a thin wafer of an almost merangue consistancy. Also DO NOT bake the crust longer than 15 minutes. It will be pale and not browned at all on top, but will be completely done, and a lovely golden on the bottom after the filling has been added and it's been in the oven for another 20 to 25 min. (max.)If the edges start to brown...take it out immediately. It is definately done. Be sure to watch it if you leave it in longer than 20 minutes.
Definitely a good lemon bar, but not lemony enough. I have made this many times now and I add the zest of a full lemon to make them really tangy. If you add more lemon juice they can get too runny. But, you really do need to cook this longer than 20 mins (at least 25-28). I personally love the thick shortbread crust. Sprinkle with powdered sugar just before serving or it just soaks into the bar (powdered sugar makes them look much more appetizing and pretty!)
I followed the recipe exact, making no changes. I found that baking the crust for 15 minutes was exact as was baking the filling for 20 minutes. I had no problems with burning or overdone anything like I have with other lemon bars. I couldn't wait to cut into this, so I let it cool for about 20 minutes before I dusted it with confectioners sugar and another 10 minutes after that before I couldn't wait anymore. The crust is almost shortbread like and the filling is better than others I've tried. I think it's good as is, but for someone who likes more filling and a little more sour filling, I might double the filling next time and at least double the zest. The reviewer before me is right in describing the filling as close to a lemon meringue. NOTE: The filling looks to be thin and you'll worry that it won't set up. It will. It's supposed to look like that. EDITED: Once it cools, the filling's tartness comes out a bit more and it's quite creamy. I think some of the other reviewers are right in making a batch and a half of the filling. I think it might be perfect then.
Awesome, Awesome, Awesome!!!
I used 2 lemons for the juice and zest!! Drizzled with a thin frosting made with powdered sugar and lemon juice for a little extra zing and sweetness.

Woodchuck, Clint and Groucho love each other, and it's the cutest darned thing. All three were rescued from the same hoarding situation, and at first they were really shy. But now they've all come out of their shells and are ready to go home—and what they'd really love is the chance to go home together.
These three have a huge fan in Senior Feline Behavior Counselor Katie Watts. "Woodchuck, Clint and Groucho are the cutest threesome! They spend at least half of their day in a big cat pile," she told us. "Just now I saw all three crowded onto one small bed. There wasn't quite room for all three, so Clint was sitting on top of the other two." Adorable!
Woodchuck and Clint are a bonded pair, so they must go home together. Groucho must live with another cat—Woodchuck and Clint, another adoptable, or your resident feline—just so long as he has a kitty buddy to snuggle with.
To adopt Woodchuck and Clint or Groucho—or all three—please contact the ASPCA Adoption Center in NYC at (212) 876-7700, ext. 4120.
