Gallery: Stunning FabLab Passive House Unveiled at Europe's Solar Decat...
The European Solar Decathlon kicked off this past Friday, and Inhabitat was on the scene to bring you the world's most stunning sun-powered homes as they go head-to-head in this year's competition. One of our favorites so far is the FabLab House, a solar panel-covered passive building designed by a team from the Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia – read on for an exclusive first look!
The prefabricated wood FabLab house features a photovoltaic skin that is customized for Madrid's unique solar resources. It is built on three legs and has space underneath for natural ventilation and a shaded patio. FabLab also features smart energy and temperature-monitoring systems, a garden, and a rainwater collection system on its roof.
The European Solar Decathlon, a counterpart to the U.S-based decathlon, challenges entrants to design homes for specific climates and resources. We think the sleek FabLab succeeded on all counts. Stay tuned — more Inhabitat coverage of the Madrid-based European Solar Decathlon is coming soon!

Much like the rivalry between the Trojans and the Bruins, there's always been some heat around the topic of the Valley — every Angeleno seems to have an opinion to share (or overshare!). But, no matter which side of the mountains you call home, we think it's time we all just got along and basked in our sun-drenched surroundings, together.
Because, the truth is, if haters spent a bit of time actually touring the area, they could maybe — just maybe — grow fond of the massive ravine. We're taking those very steps ourselves, and showing the area some love! By no means would we call ourselves experts, but after logging a few weeks playing in that neck of the woods, we've uncovered 26 hot spots totally worth visiting. So, keep an open mind, click through, and we hope to see you over the hill…maybe this weekend?

Ten Songs To Take The Field To At the Super Bowl
January 31, 2014 via Pepsi
Ten Songs To Take The Field To At The Super Bowl
There's nothing like a good entrance. It sets a great first impression, strikes fear in your opponent, and gets your team pumped up. The Super Bowl sits as one of the biggest sporting events of all time, you have to start out with a bang. Nothing comes close to Ray Lewis' entrance but with the songs in this list you can't go wrong. Including the likes of Kanye West, Eminem, and Katy Perry, these are the 10 songs to take the field to at the Super Bowl.
1. Eminem - Survival
The Super Bowl is the survival of the fittest. Either you win or you lose. Eminem's "Survival" will surely let the opponent know that they need to bring their A-game if they plan on defeating you.
2. Kanye West - On Sight
Can you think of a perfect entrance that doesn't have Kanye West "On Sight" playing in the background? The high intensity of the up tempo beat by Daft Punk will get the entire team and fans pumped for a game of pigskin.
3. Young Jeezy - Put On
There's no greater feeling knowing that your city is on your side. Show them love back by blasting "Put On" as you come out the locker to show your appreciation to your city.
4. Katy Perry - Roar
Katy Perry's pop anthem "Roar" is one of best songs of 2013 therefore being nominated for Song of the Year at the Grammys. It's an inspirational song with the clear goal to motivate everyone listening. You'll have the "eye of the tiger."
5. Drake - Started From The Bottom
If the Kansas City Chiefs had made it to the Super Bowl, this song would surely have been their anthem. Only winning two games last year to going on a nine game winning streak this season. Started from the bottom indeed!
6. Juelz Santana - Second Coming
First let's thank Just Blaze for this amazing beat. The violins alone (originally scored by Hector Berlioz) will have us ready to get to 100 yards every game. If that's not enough, Juelz lays down two great verses that further motivates with lines like "Best of the best is what we strive to be. A legacy is what we trying to leave." Now go make history.
7. Drake - Worst Behavior
"Worst Behavior" is one of Drake's best from his latest album Nothing Was The Same. It's like Started From The Bottom 2.0 the way it entices you to chant "remember!" every time Drake does. Turn up and make all remember your performance.
8. Pusha T - Numbers on the Boards
Men lie, women lie, numbers don't. The team with highest numbers wins. Pusha T "Numbers on The Boards" will remind the team of that as they storm the field.
9. Jay Z and Kanye West – Who Gon' Stop Me
The song is packed with high energy and powerful verses from Jay and Ye. After the two go back and forth flexing their skills your whole mentality will change. "Who gon' stop me huh? Who gon' stop me," is the only thing you will be thinking.
10. DJ Khaled "All I Do Is Win"
DJ Khaled's 2010 single "All I Do Is Win" is exactly the type of song that is meant to motivate the masses. And he pieced it together so perfectly. From the thunderous drums to the catchy hook done by R&B singer T-Pain, this song will pump you up even if it's just playing in your car on the way to work. Verses from Ludacris, Rick Ross, and Snoop Dogg all tie into the never-say-never attitude.

- Dr Pepper and Pepsi are popular brands of soft drinks.

A lot of the stores get a lot of their business from motorists making brief stops. When they run the risk of getting ticketed because there's no place to park, the motorists look elsewhere to shop. It doesn't seem to affect the businesses on Flatbush Avenue, and there are limited places to park (legally) there. I added the term legally because double-parking and people who sit in their vehicle while someone runs in really quickly is a constant problem on Flatbush especially between Empire Boulevard and the Junction. I don't think enough of those motorists are getting ticketed because they are not being deterred from doing it. morralkan said:
This "reconfiguring" is a big waste of money. We need fewer of these grand designs and more competent attention to the condition of our city's roads. The Dollar vans are essential to the residents of East Flatbush and other southern neighborhoods, getting people back home far more quickly than even express buses can. And when all is said and done, the SBS buses will zip along, sort of, the DOT and the MTA will trumpet all sorts of glorious statistics, and the local buses will lumber along and anyone not living near or going to an SBS stop will still be taking a slow boat to China.
One of the points I'm making is that the street surfaces are atrocious and this is one of the limiting factors when it comes to speed of any bus. The DOT and MTA should be pushing first for high quality roadbeds and paving to see what that effect will have. The bumped out corners only limit the speed at which the buses can run because it is harder to maneuver out of those spaces than it is from a normal bus stop. The MTA/DOT trumpets the speed of the SBS buses, but conveniently neglects to time the local buses and the (in)frequency with which they run.One of the primary factors that slows down bus service is the fact that they are so overcrowded. It simply takes a lot longer to board and discharge passengers when a bus is chock full of people, even more so when passengers are elderly, infirm, or carrying packages. Perhaps the world along Nostrand Ave is vastly different, but when I got on the 34th St bus in Manhattan, it was not the dipping of Metro cards that took all the time, it was much more the crowding of people like sardines that made each stop an adventure.By the way, whynot, have you been frequently taking the SBS on Fordham Road and doing your shopping there? What's the local service like there? Many people actually have to use the local. In any case, what do the Nostrand Ave. merchants actually think has been happening to their business lately?
So, for example, every SBS stop has a nice cover so you can at least attempt to shield yourself from the rain.

Not at the NB B44 SBS stop at the Junction.
Young single, healthy people who despise older people with families eventually become them.
Sorry, Mike, but you and your cohorts are not the slightest bit concerned with the safety of the elderly. That is your smokescreen to promote your hippy-dippy crusades against all motor vehicles in the city. By the way, many of those deaths are caused by trucks and buses. With what do you propose to replace THESE vehicles? Bicycle delivery?
grwd said:
There's got to be some other major first world cities with lower pedestrian fatality rates that also have their fair share of trucks and buses on the street. Can't we just copy their traffic policies and street designs and achieve the same results?
We don't need to reinvent the wheel here, we just need to steal the best ideas and be willing to adapt.

homeowner said:
as the city has gone into overdrive with "traffic calming" measures the number of pedestrians killed has actually INCREASED each year since 2011.
This article states we had more injuries in 2013 than we had since 2008.
2013 may have been a statistical outlier.
"The number of tickets written for drivers failing to yield has shot up by 115% since Jan. 1, compared with the same span last year — from 4,719 to 10,150, the NYPD said. The number of tickets for speeding are up 15% to 34,296 so far this year from 29,921. Arrests for DWI have increased by 6% from 3,955 to 4,197."

The draw for the Commonwealth Bank Tournament of Champions was made on Tuesday. Ana, who is the fifth highest-ranked player in the eight-woman field, will play Russian Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova in her opening match.
Ana has a favourable 2-0 head-to-head record against the Russian, having beaten her in Indian Wells in 2009 and in Brisbane in January of this year.
Should Ana progress to the semi-finals, she will face either top seed Li Na of China or Japan's Kimiko Date Krumm, the 40-year-old phenomenon of the WTA Tour.
The four players in the bottom half of the draw, whom Ana cannot meet until the final, are No.2 Aravane Rezai, Daniela Hantuchova, Alisa Kleybanova and Yanina Wickmayer.

For a generation of Americans seared by the horrific spectacle of 9/11, he was a shadowy figure of malice, a disembodied voice whispering messages of doom that even a decade of war failed to silence. In more than 30 audio and video tapes released since the deadliest terrorist attack in history, Osama bin Laden taunted U.S. leaders for their inability to bring him to justice even as he seduced followers with his vision of a holy war between Islam and the West that would drive the infidels from Muslim lands.
Above all, bin Laden exhorted his "heroic warriors" to kill Westerners and Jews as the path to redemption. Often, the complex organism of global jihad responded to his entreaties with acts of wanton violence. For as long as he was free, the very idea of bin Laden remained potent and menacing. But then the hard men with guns came in the night, and he was just another terrorist at the end of his bloody run of luck.
With bin Laden silenced, the overarching question for Washington is, what becomes of the movement he claimed to head? After a leadership struggle, a much-degraded al-Qaida will likely try to remain relevant in the extremist pantheon by plotting reprisal attacks, and the scattered franchises that the organization spawned may well do the same. But the truly existential danger was always the power of bin Laden's ideas in enticing legions of followers to his twisted narrative of holy war.

Certainly, the manner of bin Laden's death suggests that both sides in this twilight struggle understood their roles in what are essentially competing narratives. Bin Laden had sworn never to be taken alive in his bid for "martyrdom," and Navy SEAL Team Six obliged, carrying its own message that the United States never forgets. Then bin Laden was given a respectful Muslim burial at sea, ensuring that his final resting place would not become a point of pilgrimage for true believers.
It's possible, of course, that bin Laden's martyrdom narrative could reinvigorate interest in his ideas of a holy war with the West, inspiring new waves of recruits to join the "global jihad." As terrorism expert Peter Bergen points out in The Longest War: The Enduring Conflict Between America and Al-Qaida, something similar happened to Sayyid Qutb, a writer and founding father of the jihadist movement whose ideas caught fire after the Egyptian government executed him in 1966.
Initial reaction to the news of bin Laden's death, however, suggests that his once red-hot torch was already nearly extinguished. In his ancestral home in the Middle East, for instance, the response has generally been a collective shrug. Contrast that with the millions of fellow Arabs who took to the streets in recent months to shake off the yoke of despotism and demand democratic freedoms from autocrats throughout the Middle East, or the reverence bestowed on the lowly Tunisian fruit seller whose self-immolation lit the fuse of those peoples' revolutions. Polls in recent years have consistently driven home the fact that Muslim support for al-Qaida's terrorist tactics and bin Laden's vision of a fundamentalist Islamic caliphate was declining dramatically before his demise.
"Osama bin Laden's original genius was to create a narrative of war between the West and Islam that was easy to understand and that resonated with aggrieved Muslims all over the world," Bergen said. "And then along comes the 'Arab Spring,' which refutes his narrative that only violence will topple the dictators, followed, with perfect timing, by bin Laden's death. You couldn't select two better bookends for the end of the 'war on terror.' "
In launching his "war on terror" after the 9/11 attacks, President George W. Bush famously warned the public that "there will be no surrender ceremony on the deck of a battleship." Years from now, however, Americans may look back on bin Laden's quiet burial at sea from the deck of the aircraft carrier Carl Vinson, along with the spontaneous celebrations by revelers who heard the news of his death and flocked unbidden to the White House and Ground Zero, as the closest thing to a "Victory over Terrorism" day in the war on terrorism.
Even if radical Islamist terrorism spikes in the short term as adherents seek revenge and remains a likely tactical threat for the foreseeable future, bin Laden's fevered dreams of leading a violent Islamist revolution that sweeps fundamentalist theocracies into power almost certainly follows him to the depths. In that sense, the post-9/11 era defined by the "war on terror," when combating terrorism was not only a national preoccupation but was also elevated to the central organizing principle of American foreign and national-security policy, is ending too.
Of course, even Bush had moved beyond such rhetoric by the end of his second term. Since taking office, the Obama administration has tried, with decidedly mixed success, to end many of the policies most closely associated with that era, and to refocus U.S. foreign policy through a far broader prism. Yet the difficulties and criticisms that President Obama has encountered in abolishing "enhanced interrogations," trying to close the military prison at Guantanamo Bay, withdrawing troops from Iraq and Afghanistan, and reaching out to the Muslim world all speak to the grip that 9/11 and terrorism continue to have on the U.S. body politic and national consciousness.

Ventilating Ontario
Since 1990, mechanical ventilation systems have been mandated in the National Building Code of Canada (NBCC), as new Canadian houses are generally too tight to rely on incidental air leakage to provide sufficient ventilation air. The mechanical ventilation systems described by the NBCC are meant to represent the minimum systems that will ensure adequate ventilation. How adequate that ventilation truly is is a matter of debate—and research.
Code officials in each province generally adopt most of the National Building Code for the provincial editions. However, several provinces have modified the ventilation sections provided by the NBCC. In the case of Ontario, the ventilation sections of the 1993 and 1997 building codes differ from the NBCC and from other provincial codes in several ways.
One of the major changes is that the Ontario codes explicitly recognize exhaust-only ventilation (EOV). Exhaust-only systems sometimes cause problems with combustion venting in new homes, as the level of house depressurization caused by the exhaust system may affect chimney-vented appliances.The Ontario codes address this risk by mandating spillage-resistant appliances and prohibiting wood combustion in houses with EOV systems.
A basic Ontario system consists of a ventilation fan switch (labeled Ventilation Fan) located in the main living area, next to the thermostat. Operation of the switch generally activates a bathroom exhaust fan. Residents are supposed to simultaneously activate the forced-air furnace circulation fan to mix the house's air, evenly distributing the fresh air that is being sucked in through minor holes in the house's envelope. Systems such as this have been shown to work effectively.An exhaust fan working without circulating air does not provide adequate ventilation for all parts of the house. During the code writing process, some commentators suggested that the ventilation fan switch should also turn on the furnace circulation fan, but code writers thought that this would be too complicated or too expensive. Instead, the homeowner would be taught how to run the system and could adapt—code writers thought—to the two-step activation.
In 1994, a study of the new Ontario ventilation systems included 6 houses with EOV in a sample of 24 homes. Most of the houses did not have the required fan switch on the thermostat, and the ventilation switch was not labeled in most houses.The homeowners with EOV did not see their systems as ventilation systems and used them infrequently. Despite these early results, EOV has become the most widely installed system in new Ontario houses. With the advent of changes to the NBCC, and to the ventilation standard, several people recommended that national codes and standards adopt the Ontario approach. But the early research and anecdotal data suggested that, while EOV might be popular with builders, homeowners were not using the systems as intended. Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) decided to conduct a short survey to verify the use and utility of EOV systems.
The research was conducted during the fall of 2003. University students in architecture or engineering surveyed 140 owners of new houses in three parts of Ontario: Ottawa, Toronto, and Guelph. The houses were all built in 1995 or later. The surveyor asked the homeowners what kind of ventilation system they had, how they used the system, when and how often they opened their windows, and whether they had indoor air quality (IAQ) problems. In some houses, they took rudimentary measurements of air flow, using the CMHC garbage bag technique (see "Air Flow Measurements in the Bag," HE Sept/Oct '02, p. 8). The data collected on system performance and user satisfaction were largely qualitative.
Most of the homes that were surveyed— 76%, or 91 homes—had EOV systems. A principal question for the surveyors was whether homeowners with these systems simultaneously activated the ventilation fan and the furnace circulation fan.They found that most homeowners surveyed were generally unaware that the two fans had to be operated simultaneously.Over 30% of EOV owners never used the systems. Most of the other EOV owners indicated that they used the bathroom fans to control room odor and humidity, but did not use them for general ventilation. Almost 50% of the EOV owners said that their systems were too noisy.A significant number of homeowners identified problems such as stuffiness or window condensation that could be remedied by operating a ventilation system.
Another 16% of the houses had heat recovery ventilators (HRVs); the remaining 8% had other systems. However, the data gathered on the operation of the HRVs and other ventilation systems were less conclusive. There were fewer examples, and the complexity of the installations made it difficult for the surveyors to interpret the results.
The window-opening data were almost incidental to the study, but they are interesting nonetheless. Over 90% of new homeowners in Ontario do open windows; over 40% open windows even during the winter. In midsummer, almost 10% do not open windows at all, which may indicate continuous use of air conditioning systems. These houses would benefit from midsummer ventilation to provide fresh air to the houses.
The data collected show that EOV—the most common ventilation system in Ontario over the last ten years—is not being used properly. Having separate switches for the designated ventilation fan and the furnace circulation fan means that the two are rarely operated simultaneously. Homeowners do not recognize the bathroom fan as being part of the ventilation system and do not activate it. Yet they experience problems with IAQ and house humidity levels that would benefit from a properly operated ventilation system. Future codes should at least upgrade such systems to interlock the ventilation fan and the furnace circulation fan.

As a platinum sponsor of the Summer of Dreams program, Siemens is helping to bring STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) education to homeless students in Central Florida.
In partnership with Orlando Science Center, Siemens engineers volunteered to lead an interactive, hands-on Discovery Lab that featured in-depth design challenges based on engineering principles. One of the projects taught participants how to build a load-bearing bridge.
Now in its third year, Summer of Dreams was founded to fill an unmet need for food, shelter and supervision for homeless students when school is not in session. The program provides two meals a day, activities, school supplies, academic and STEM-enrichment, and mentoring — as well as financial counseling for parents, offered by founding sponsor Fifth Third Bank.

A city dweller suffering insomnia in a cabin in the woods, yearning for the lullaby of ambulance sirens. The unbreathing space between an offer of marriage and its acceptance or rejection. The life of a man whose neighbors never dreamed he was capable of such an atrocity. The ambient noise in a library, garden, or graveyard.
Themes represent basic categories of thought, emotion, or value.

Correction: The newspaper's editorial of April 29 expressed two concerns — that district attorney Robert Burns make the transition from district attorney to county counsel as quickly as possible and that he earn only one salary while serving in both positions.
The second concern is moot because it has already been addressed. According to the contract negotiated by Burns and county and approved by the Lassen County Board of Supervisors, despite his possible service in both roles, Burns will continue to earn his salary as district attorney until he resigns. Thereafter, he will be paid as county counsel.
Tuesday, April 29, 2014 — Just last week the Lassen County Board of Supervisors hired District Attorney Robert Burns, who is not seeking re-election in the June 3 Primary Election, as Lassen County Counsel.
Burns will assume the county counsel role May 16 with the departure of Rhetta Vander Ploeg, and, according to the contract he inked with the county, he also could serve as district attorney until the newly elected district attorney takes the oath of office next January — more than eight months from now.
According to the contract negotiated between the county and Burns and approved by the Lassen County Board of Supervisors last week, the county "is aware and accepts that employee (Burns) will be serving in both capacities, county counsel and district attorney, from the date of effectiveness of this agreement until such time as employee resigns from the position of district attorney or his term ends by operation of law, whichever comes first.
Thereafter employee will serve as county counsel only … "

Battery Life: 4:24
Cost Per Hour of Juice: $45 per hour
Lets take a look at two Chromebooks with around the same price: the Samsung Series 3 Chromebook ($249) and Acer C7 ($199). Both devices sport 11-inch displays, but the ARM-powered Chromebook lasted 7:34, while the C7 lagged more than 3 hours behind at 4:24. Granted, the C7 isn't designed to be your primary PC, and maybe you will use it mostly around the house. But why would you pay $45 per hour of battery life for the Acer when, for just $50 more, you can get the much more efficient, $33-per-hour Samsung Chromebook? The Series 3 also happens to sport a sleeker design.
Thanks for testing out those batteries. I wanted to buy a Google Nexus but the battery only lasts for 4 hours. What's the use of those advanced features if you can only enjoy it for 4 hours.
Clever article in a checklist-driven world.
In a similar spirit, one could also come up with a list about "least important checklist items" or "most misleading bundle offers". In the mid-2000s everybody whined about manufacturers dropping IR from phones, though it happened because it was slow. Now, if there is no NFC, it is not even a real smartphone, but you cannot in fact use NFC. Add to that that you have to approach something at least 20 cm with your _mobile_ device to make NFC function. Or you have the ads that claim how many peripheries you can add (for extra cash, of course) to make the product function (better), whereas the real question should be what is the product's core functionality or what you get out-of-the-box.
This is interesting they really should come up with a battery that not only lasts but will not slowly dwindle out after a month or so. It would be nice if it held the charge.
Here's the thing when you're considering the battery lives: are you going to be web surfing for 4 hours straight? If you travel a lot and over long distances, maybe. In my case, I'm not…but here's what I'll tell you from a regular day's work (I'm using a Google Nexus 4). I work in a science lab and just finished a 3 hour task while running Songza at a reasonable volume. My phone has been unplugged since 8 or so. 70% battery life remaining. If you're a heavy user where your screen is on most of the time, sure – maybe the 4 and a half hours are not enough for you. I however, don't have the time to stare at my phone screen for a 6th of my day. Also, the price/hour of battery life seems a bit of a strange consideration. Sure, I get it. But I'm not only buying a battery. I'm getting a gadget with the form factor I want, the UI I want and the cheap phone plan I want.
I suppose I should add that it's about 5 o clock right now while I'm finishing up this comment.
Why not compare Apples to Apples(no pun) for the Surface Pro . I would love to see the MacBook Air's score because on Apple's own site it says up to 5 hours battery time. Comparing a x86 machine to a ARM machine is just silly
I agree with Adrian. You can't compare a Toyota Prius gas mileage with a Dodge Ram hemi. Two different products. Apple iPad, as great as it is, cannot run NHL2k13 from EA or many other programs. Sure both vehicles can get you fr point a to b with the Prius running better has mileage but that's all it can do. If you want to do more you can't. Same with the iPad. It's great for angry birds or a gameloft nova game which is still impressive, it can't run the amazing games an intel i5 can.
I have a Microsoft Surface RT and I love it. For me, it's better than the iPad as I can do everything an iPad does but also do most of what my pc does. I didn't get the pro because I have a pc already. I wanted a middle ground between iPad qualities with PC functionality and the surface rt worked for me.
I have a Nexus 4 and it lasts pretty much exactly like the iPhone 5 I tested before: around a day and a half.
I'm not sure in which conditions you did your test, maybe you had a faulty device or something.

Ana reached the fourth round of the Australian Open with a 7-5, 6-3 victory over 22nd seed Jelena Jankovic.
The 13th seed produced her best performance of the tournament so far, advancing to round four in 83 minutes, though it was her opponent who made the better start. Jankovic won the first game to 15 and wangled four break opportunities on Ana's serve.
The early wake-up call came just in time. Ana saved all of the break points and scored a double break herself, overwhelming Jankovic with some hammering groundstrokes at this stage of the match. She surged into a 5-2 lead and got the chance to serve for the set.
However, with the end of the set in sight, Ana slightly dropped the pressure on her opponent. Jankovic took full advantage and won all of the next 15 points to level the contest at 5-5. When the tide was high, Ana rediscovered the aggressiveness in her stokes and made a remarkable comeback in the eleventh game, fighting back from 40-0 to earn a break point.
The 25-year-old stopped the next rally to invoke a Hawk-Eye challenge that proved to be right, which consequently brought her a new break of serve. Despite facing two break points herself while serving for the set for a third occasion, she eventually closed out the opening set with an ace.
A pivotal break of serve in the third game of set two put Ana in pole position for the victory. Indeed, she was no more troubled by Jankovic, although the two former world No.1s contested some captivating rallies from time to time.
Ana was dominant on serve, not facing a single break point in the second set and she took a 5-3 lead. The 25-year-old broke her opponent once more as she converted her second match point on Jankovic' serve, reaching the last 16 in Melbourne for the second consecutive year.
"It was a tough match," said Ana. "I think it was intense from the first to the last moment, but I really felt like I stayed in the zone."
"We haven't played each other in a Grand Slam for a while, but it's always tough," she continued. "She's still a very good player, and even though we are different opponents now than we were then, still it's a battle you want to win, like every match."
Ana will face world No.4 Agnieszka Radwanska in the fourth round on Sunday after the Pole eliminated Great Britain's Heather Watson 6-3, 6-1.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. – March 27, 2014 ¬– Two Santa Clara residents who were awarded university tuition scholarships from Silicon Valley Power (SVP) in 2009 and 2011 are poised to move to the next level of their education.
Mark Wagner and Kara Johnson are two of 25 college scholarship and six technical school grant recipients from the SVP Scholarship Awards Program that has distributed $137,000 since 2006. SVP, the City of Santa Clara's municipal electric utility, is now accepting applications for tuition scholarships from college and technical school students for the 2014-15 school year. Applicants must be enrolled for the fall term and pursuing studies or a career related to energy services, electric utilities, or the power industry in general.
"SVP is pleased to invest in Santa Clara's most promising university and technical school students who want to study the newest resources, technologies and techniques associated with the modern demand for power," said John Roukema, SVP Director, adding that job opportunities abound for technicians as well as for researchers such as recipients Wagner and Johnson.
Wagner graduated from Santa Clara University (SCU) last June and is working toward a master's degree in mechanical engineering. His current project is researching solar powered refrigeration for use in remote areas. Mark received a $5,000 grant in 2011.
"The scholarship had a great impact on me," Wagner said. "Knowing that SVP and the selection committee supported my efforts was personally motivating and allowed me to focus on school."
"Right now, refrigerators in remote and developing areas are powered by electricity or propane. Both of these sources of energy can be expensive and produce harmful carbon emissions. An efficient system to power a refrigerator with solar energy could have a positive impact on health, hygiene and economic activity worldwide," Wagner said.
Johnson was awarded $5,000 in 2009 as she prepared to attend the University of California-Davis following graduation from Santa Clara High School.
"The SVP scholarship allowed me the time to pursue two majors, and that made a huge difference in my academic career," said Johnson, now a U.C. San Diego Ph.D. candidate with degrees from U.C. Davis in genetics and biological systems.
Johnson won a Sandia National Laboratory Design Award last year for her work on a sensor to determine the sugar content of algae, a key component necessary to developing an economically feasible biofuel, a source of energy.
"I'm very grateful to Silicon Valley Power for allowing me to concentrate on my studies from the start," Johnson said.

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (May 2, 2011) - The ETSU baseball team is set to face UNC Asheville and Appalachian State in a pair of non-conference mid-week games as the Bucs look to extend a five-game win streak.
The Bucs (27-15, 12-10 A-Sun) are slated to host the Bulldogs (15-25, 7-11 Big South) on Tuesday at 7:05 p.m. at Cardinal Park, while the team will make the trip to Boone, N.C. on Wednesday for a 6 p.m. contest with the Mountaineers (26-18, 10-11 SoCon).
Currently, the Buccaneers are coming off of a sweep of Manhattan this past weekend. Junior Matthew Scruggs (Knoxville, Tenn.) was named the Atlantic Sun Player of the Week after hitting .583 last week as the Bucs posted a 4-0 record.
Senior Paul Hoilman (Johnson City, Tenn.) will look to reach another milestone this week as the first baseman is only one hit away from tying the ETSU career hits record held by Shane Byrne who played from 2003-06 and posted 290 hits.
Head coach Tony Skole is eyeing a milestone of his own as he needs only two wins to reach 300 in his tenure at ETSU.
ETSU defeated both the Bulldogs and the Mountaineers earlier in the season. The Bucs rallied for 11 unanswered runs to defeat UNC Asheville on March 2, while ETSU mounted yet another come from behind win to take down Appalachian State on April 6.
Live stats and audio are available for both games by clicking the links above. Tune in one half hour before each game to catch all analysis on the Atmos Energy Dugout show, and don't forget to stay with us after the game on the 10th Inning Show presented by General Shale.

The Study of Salmon with Stowe, Vermont Chef Josh Berry
When I was a young boy around 8 years old my father and I were fishing in Sebago Lake in Naples, Maine. I hooked on to a 15 pound Atlantic salmon that as far as I can remember was a big as me. After that I was "hooked." I loved salmon fishing.

This morning, the Director of Athletics for Prince George's County Schools, Earl Hawkins, confirmed that DuVal High School guard Michael Cunningham has been deemed ineligible for this season because he has used up his four years of eligibility.
"He is not playing this year," Hawkins said. "The school is not playing him this year. They did their homework and he is not playing this year."
Cunningham, who led the Tigers with 18.1 points per game last season and posted multiple triple-doubles, was recognized as a junior last year when, in fact, he should have been marked a senior.
The guard told both the Washington Post and The Gazette that he attended Archbishop Carroll as a freshman and then switched over to Paul VI as a sophomore before moving once more to DuVal as a junior. Only, according to Panthers coach Glenn Farello, he attended — and played for — Paul VI as a sophomore and a junior.
"He played with us his sophomore and junior years," Farello said. "He played on JV as a freshman at [Archbishop] Carroll and then on varsity with us for two years."
Carroll Assistant Athletic Director Rick Houchens confirmed that Cunningham played on the junior varsity team in Cunningham's true freshman year.
"Our regulations say that once you start the ninth grade, you have four seasons in any one sport," Maryland Public Secondary Schools Athletic Association Executive Director Ned Sparks said. "It doesn't matter if it's JV or varsity."
He did say that under the circumstances in which an athlete falls ill or suffers an injury and subsequently does not play sports for that year, the athlete would be able to play for another year given that the athlete's academics are in line and that he or she did not age out (cannot turn 19 before Aug. 1).
But, as has been confirmed by both Paul VI and Carroll, Cunningham played for the three years prior to the 2012-2013 season, which he played for DuVal.
Had he suited up this season, every game in which Cunningham appeared would have resulted in a forfeit.
Cunningham has up to six collegiate offers, according to DuVal coach Lafayette Dublin, including Towson, Robert Morris, Wagner, and Long Island.

This is my first instructable so I wouldn't mind if people posted their opinion.
NOTE: Pictures will be added at a later date when I make the second fan, the first one (which I am writting this instructable from) was simply a test to see if it would infact work.
Step 1: Preparing the USB Cable
Once the protective jacket has been removed, remove some of the shielding such that the 4 wires which make up the USB cable are exposed.
Cut the white and green wires short (to the protective jacket) as they will not be needed for powering the device.
Hi please instructable or a diagram might be very helpful :)
hi,we produce the USB mini rechargeable handheld DC fan.
My mail address: email@example.com
how to create a 2-3 cpu fan through USB? I only know is 1 cpu fan to USB.
I am new to usb. I would like to make a usb adapter to charge my GPS. Will usb work on a battery that is roughly 6 volts? Or will it only charge up to 5 volts tops?
how to make mini fan blades
how to make mini fan blades
but can u tell me step by step how you made that fan work without using the ps2....I took my fan out but I'm having a hard time getting it to work if you can msg me back I would appreciate it thanx....
So first off, you need to, useing extreme care, strip the red and black wires on the fan, then set them aside.
Next, snip one end of the usb cord off (i was using an old cord to an mp3 player, so i snipped off the mini end). Strip off like a 2 inch part of the outer layer of the usb, then snip all the wires except for the red and black ones off. As you could imagine, the next step is to strip the red and black wire of the usb.
Finally, you have to try and solder the wires together (red to red, black to black). This is pretty damn tough due to the fan wires being short and thin, so you might need an extra set of hands helping you out. Tape it up when you're all done (taping the wires separately to insulate them) and plug it in to a computer usb port.
If you need more help go ahead and ask, I could even sketch out some diagrams if you need me too no problem.
you can connect more then one fan to one USB port soo there we dont have to use resistors.
but can anyone explain we how must amount of energy is required to operate a FAN that you have used.
and then its equivalent resistance for 1 fan
thanks for the info
Thank You!
CYa! :)
V = I x R
jk i wont make it that hard. this will do it for u

I was able to attend two films as part of the New York City Dance on Camera Festival last week at the Walter Reade Theatre at Lincoln Center. Two nights, two documentaries on contemporary dance, two very different, yet equally effective, approaches to the genre. [above: "Un peu de tendresse bordel de merde!," Dave St. Pierre] The first, "Urban Ballet" (Brigitte Kramer and Jorg Jashel), was quite beautiful and was shot in Germany at the Tanz im August Berlin International Dance Festival. Perfectly edited with just the right amount of footage from interviews with the artists, the film focused on these artists works - whether it was in the streets, a train station, a warehouse studio, a lawn or the stage

Howdy Folks......I have a millermatic 180 with profax gun, 15' reach. Also, I have a nice di-acro rotary bender (manual). along with other sundry metal working tools.
Do any of you have ideas on how I could make money with my tools?
I have been doing the occasional odd job, mostly trailer repairs, a few weed eater racks for lawn companies, dog boxes on a trailer but I would really like to put that bender to use and get more work.
I don't have much experience with the bender but it came with a bunch of dies. Most of the dies are for 3/4" tubing.

You need to be fluent and experienced with the tools you have before starting a small business. There's no point in advertising your business/services if you can't proficiently use all your tools. Can you weld all metals in all positions? Do you have any certification tickets to prove you able and competent?Lincoln Idealarc 250 stick/tig

15 foot gun on 180?
I really don't think your drive motor is going to last very long. The machine is only designed to run a 10 foot gun.
I have a ton of tools/equipment... my friends come in my shop and say i have everything. But it seems with every new job i need a new tool, mostly the small stuff. Tubing benders etc... have the tendency to sit around.
And your gonna need more than just a mig welder to have a decent weld/repair shop. Aluminum comes up quite often and you cant do a whole lot with the 180 and the spoolmate 100
I'd have to agree with this.
I am doing what your thinking of and found Tig to be my most used process.
If your Mig only, advertise what work you can do and go for that. Practice with it every day and get good. Go after the lawn care guys. Mig is perfect for that equipment. Racks for trailers, expanded metal, mowers you name it.
Its small time work but could get you better things later on. Mig is good for yard art also, make something to sell.

I bought a set of bottles with 1/2 good torch set on it last week for 160 and the gas was 3/4 full-full. I even avoid used "deals" anymore, but had my eye out for another set of bottles at the right time and place, I was there, they were there, 100$ net to have another set of spares on the rack I only occasionally use. Purchase price on them well over 400 plus fill and tax. The convenience wasn't worth 400+ but for 1 is was hard to beat.
Shopping was so much different than when I started out. If I was young and in the hunt would be a power shopper any more, so many good stores as compared to the mom and pop or supply houses one was held hostage to at hi prices, so many good tools out there so cheap in comparison to 30 yrs ago.
The used market is a wonderful thing. It was so hard to buy and sell back in the day, now the problem is decision. I started with Lincoln because its what my local dealer had. Not everyone liked dealing with him, he was a Jewish scrap dealer, he did a lot of biz with biz, he had it priced and I am sure if a guy did some real biz there could be negotiated deals but the avg little guy got a deal on a bottle fill.
I usually never asked what the price was unless I was bidding or generalizing. I think he really understood his market and looking back genuinely liked the public. I saw a couple big user go out of town due to pricing but he had a huge base where it wasn't worth it when they were not being obscenely gouged.
Its hard to grasp some price rises anyway but now we are all paying retail. As smaller companies got asorbed the price has went up to the small customer, everytime you aint looking you are shoved up a price tier. Some of the help is still there, maybe they aint all that sharp but they got to know,,, I stopped shopping there or when I do I call and price everything.

This may or may not relate to the original question,, ha.
People that know you are interested give you stuff. My neighbor had no use for these.
The reason I spun off,,, I would be on lookout for used, back in the day we bought a lot of new that rides the bench, I still get caught on that on occasion, but its smaller and less of a jolt than just starting out. Learn to be modest about tooling, I bought a lot and a lot of attachments to have the best and in the end used a 300$ welder 10 times as much as a 3000$ one. Stick to small and practical and really make sure you need something before going out on a limb.
2nd,, back then if you wanted anything near now would have to wait on unpredictable results. Now can go in to a store and buy a wrench off the shelf 24/7, a grinder or order it from home at some crazy cheap price. Imitation and competition has made a lot of stuff go down in price. Supplys went up, tools down.

I spent 900 on new batteries, it was a limp to the end and about cost me several dangerous events for using faulty tools, at fist thought maybe I panicked by getting a couple extra but am now getting back to the groove of full power again. I use drill and sawzall as much as a welder, maybe more critical.
With a few bits and blades it has replaces a whole lot of tools. Ifg not for that would have had a mag drill by now but learned basics well enough that for a couple holes can be done before the setup with expensive tooling, cut a 2x2 angle off in 30 seconds with a sawzall,,,, why fire up a torch. 20$ in brand name blades at the flea mkt a year and its cheaper than the gas and no fire.
I don't own a bender and my neighbor recently built me a small sheet one, I wouldn't mind a 48 finger brake but until I get it cheap I am a master of scoring pre bent appliance steel or working over bench etc. There is so much factory prebent in the scrap last real tubing I bend is electric, seems I can find something, kids toys. furniture etc. This doesn't work in fabrication production but in the end I find I do nt use every tool they ever invented.
