SawStop v The World
This is from the PTI patent. Figure 1 shows the blade retraction system under normal operating conditions. Figure 2 is a cutaway of the blade retraction mechanism. A cylinder (66) fits inside a cylinder bore (64). When the spinning blade touches flesh a capacitor sends a burst of high amperage electricity through a wire (78) and into a pin (74) that causes a .22 calibre cartridge (68) to fire.
Figure 3 shows the blade as it begins to retract after the cartridge is fired. Figure 4 shows the firing mechanism (60) at the same point in time: The gas generated the cartridge (68) has forced the cylinder (66) out of the bore (64) and driven the hammer (82) into an anvil (102 fig 3) that is a connected to a curved arm (20). The arm is connected to the saw's arbor and is beginning to pull it below the table.
Figure 5 shows the position of the blade and arbor (16) when fully retracted. Note how the arm (18) that the arbor is attached to has pivoted away from the table and carried the blade with it.
The defendants listed on the first page of the complaint are a who's who of power tool makers that sell table saws in the U.S. Chang Type Industrial owns Delta, having purchased it from SB&D in 2011. Emerson Electric is listed because it owns the Ridgid brand. It's unclear why Milwaukee is there; it doesn't even make table saws. Pentair, which sold its power tool business (Porter-Cable and Delta) to Black & Decker in 2004, has been released from the suit by the judge. Techtronic (TTi) is on the list because it owns Ryobi (and also Milwaukee).
US District Court
This is from page 20 and 21 of the complaint filed by SawStop and SD3. What's interesting is PTI's estimate of the annual number of table saws shipped between 2006 and 2010. If those figures are correct, sales averaged 700,000 units per year. Multiply that by the licensing fee SawStop would receive if its technology was used on each of those saws (SawStop has said $50 each; PTI has said $200+) and you can see why the two sides think this is worth fighting about.
U.S. District Court
Page 22 of the complaint contains the Consumer Product Safety Commission's estimate of the annual cost of table saw injuries: $2.36 billion per year. It's worth noting that this number includes the cost of medical treatment, lost work time, legal and administrative fees, AND the "pain and suffering" that would be awarded if every table saw injury resulted in a lawsuit and the injured party won. More to follow…
Consumer Product Safety Commision
In 2012 PTI commented (see paragraph 3; page 21) on the CPSC's proposed rule, stating that 80% of the estimated cost (ICM) of $2.36 billion per year is pain and suffering. According to PTI, the inclusion of legal fees and pain and suffering has caused the CPSC to overstate the cost to society of table saw injuries.
A few weeks back I stumbled across a story about the arguments being made in a lawsuit between SawStop and most of the world's power tool companies. After a bit of online searching I found the original complaint, a 40-page document that was filed in February at the U.S. District Court in the Eastern District of Virginia. The plaintiffs (SawStop and its parent company SD3) claim the defendants (most of the world's power tool companies) engaged in a group boycott of SawStop technology, violated the Sherman Antitrust Act by collectively refusing to license that technology, and fraudulently concealed a conspiracy to do all of the above. They also accuse the defendants of conspiring to influence and corrupt UL by convincing that organization not to incorporate SawStop technology into its safety standards and to change UL standards to limit competition in table saw blade guards (SawStop's then current guard did not comply with the new standard and they were forced to redesign it.)
At this point the complaints leveled by SawStop and SD3 are unproven allegations. It will be up to Judge Claude Hilton of the United States District Court Eastern District of Virginia and a jury—if one is empaneled—to decide whether or not any of the plaintiff's claims have merit.
The preliminaries are underway and according to a report in Law360, on April 10 the defendants' attorneys filed a motion to dismiss, claiming the collusion charge was baseless because "numerous defendants made offers to license the SawStop technology months after the purported October 2001 agreement to boycott the plaintiff's technology". The defendants' legal team slammed SawStop, saying it is not the champion of consumer welfare it claims to be and that the suit is an effort to force rivals to license its technology on unfavorable terms and prevent it from having to compete with less expensive alternatives to its technology.
That last bit, about less expensive alternatives, has to do with a safety system that has never been offered to the tool-buying public. The system—which consists of electronics and a pyrotechnic drop mechanism—was jointly developed under the auspices of the Power Tool Institute (PTI), a trade group that represents many of the world's power tool companies. It works like this: when the saw's electronics sense flesh (or some other conductive material) they fire a .22 caliber blank and use the resulting gas pressure to retract the blade below the table in a matter of milliseconds—fast enough to prevent serious injury to the person whose flesh touched the blade (see slideshow). According to PTI, the blade isn't damaged and for the cost of a shell (the kind used in powder actuated fastening tools) the mechanism can be reset and the saw put back into action. Activating the SawStop mechanism destroys the blade and a $70-90 cartridge.
PTI received a U.S. patent (7,628,101) for its safety system in 2009 but claims actions by SawStop have prevented its use. In comments submitted (see page 11) to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) in March 2012, the PTI said that when SawStop learned of the pyrotechnic drop mechanism it "amended one of its then-pending patent applications to purportedly cover any table saw that, instead of application of a blade braking system, would retract the blade rapidly within 14 milliseconds –using any retraction technique after detecting contact." That application was accepted by the U.S. patent office—effectively nixing any competing system that relies on fast retraction of the blade. The power tool companies could make use of the PTI safety system but it would mean engaging in costly patent infringement litigation with no guarantee they'd prevail.
It will be interesting to see how this all plays out. In the meantime, you might want to check out the slideshow on the left—which contains patent drawings of PTI's pyrotechnic safety device and some interesting tidbits from SawStop's complaint. If you're a table saw user and have an opinion about SawStop, PTI, or the lawsuit discussed in this story, feel free to share in the comments section below.

A small post office in south-central Kentucky is being put up for auction.
Reports say the building where Alvaton's post office is located will be auctioned on Saturday, but that won't mean the end of postal services at the location.
Postal Service spokesman David Walton says the agency has a lease at the building that runs through 2017. He says some small post offices are being considered for closure, but the Alvaton location is not one of them.
Listing agent David Chelf says he's had several people express interest in the property as an investment opportunity, and having rental income guaranteed from the Postal Service helps out.

What's your favorite sub?
Continuing the food theme, cuz I ain't had lunch yet... what's your favorite sub toppings at Subway or similar? Mine is turkey, lettuce, black olives, yellow pepper, avocado, bacon, mayo and red onion.
8 Answers answer
Favorite ... it's all a matter of mood-of-the-day. Sometimes chicken, sometimes turkey, sometimes cold cut combo.
I did have one employee greet me once with "Hi, welcome to Subway, where I'm sorry sir, but we don't serve brains here." I was wearing 'Acquired Taste' that day ...
Italian with everything. I hate ordering at subway or d'angelos because they make me work to decide what goes on my sub. When I say everything, it means I don't care what you put on there just load it up and don't make me talk anymore. I really don't like this shift in having to custom order my toppings. There has been times where they try to wrap up a sub with just meat after i ordered "with everything" and after asked what "everything" is, I say, "everything that goes on an Italian sub". When asked now I just point at the vegetable section and say everything.
I usually pass by the subway and go to a real sub shop where i can get something oily and overflowing. Nevertheless, it's ok in a pinch.
If I make a sub myself, onions, green peppers, whatever spicy pepper is available, oil.
FYI, if you are ever ordering a roast beef, throw some cream cheese and horseradish mustard on there. A spicy pepper as well.
@gregorylikescheapstu: Yikes! Where's my free sample of Zantac?
@gregorylikescheapstu: There was a great little sub shop near my old office that had the "leave it to us" sub...basically chefs choice and was always great.
Meatball sub on Italian-herb-&-chesse bread, pepperjack cheese, as many olives as I can get those stingy bastards to use, parmesan and oregano.
Simple and delicious.
Sweet Onion Chicken Teriyaki with onions and peppers and lettuce slathered in sweet onion sauce!!!
Spicy Italian on the Italian herb and cheese.
Nothing from Subway. Very skimpy on the meat and cheese and the meat used is not 'high grade'....Most of their meats look 'processed' compared to the real thing and again, they put very little on it. I like my subs with very light toppings....So, any subway sub I get is not only awful as far as quality goes but its mostly bread anyway. The best subs are made at home by you the eater of said sub. Equal to that but more costly (not much more and likely worth the extra .50-$1.00 if even that much) are subs from local non-chains. They have great quality, rely on repeat customers and word of mouth so they ensure you get an awesome sub. #3 on the list & dont know if all cities have this but the HT supermarkets in my area make AWESOME subs using Boars Head Meat and cheese for a very low price and they pile on the meat cheese toppings and etc...AWESOME subs....1 full sub can feed 2 people easily.

Actually it moves part of your physical RAM addresses above the device addresses since that's easier.

Somewhat sooner unless AMD64/Intel64 continue to push their address space.
Presently they only support 40bits physical (1 tebibye).

Fixed. You were giving it 8x the address space than it really has.
bitvector wrote:No, he had it right with bytes. x86 is byte addressed. Each address refers to a byte, and each is 64 bits, which gives you 2^64 possible bytes.
If x86 was bit addressed, 32-bits would only give you 512MB of address space. Bit addressable architectures are rare: on his webpage, Andrew Morton notes that it was a pain to port gcc to the TI34010 due to this quirk.
derFunkenstein wrote:So basically an address is a 32- or 64-bit integer that links to the specific point where a byte of data is located?
Final Thoughts
Among all of our tests, there are three identifiable patterns, all relating to some difference between Vista and XP. Those are:
1. Vista is using more address space than XP in all situations
2. The amount of address space used with Vista seems to be related to the amount of video memory on our video card
3. XP on the other hand does not fluctuate at all, the address space usage is the same no matter what card we use.
So, it does appear from their testing that video memory for 3D apps eats up a lot more application address space than XP, and that it is variable with the amount of video ram you have on your video card.
This is not necessarily all bad, just make sure you have lots of RAM when running Vista, especially for 3D apps!
oldDummy wrote:So now I'm confused...What is the relationship between the [Virtual?] address space and the hardware ram referenced in the quote?

I have been experimenting with Apple's new SceneKit for fun, but I cannot seem to figure out how to input vertex data without loading a
.dae file.
Does anybody who has been testing SceneKit have any idea how to set or modify vertex data?
SceneKit is primarily a scene graph API and it isn't designed to be a complete solution for all your rendering needs; it's designed to augment existing APIs such as GLKit and CoreAnimation.
Primarily the focus of the API is loading serialized geometry assets (
However, you may find SCNGeometry's geometryWithSources: selector to be what you need. Here's an example in practice.

NASHVILLE — The Vanderbilt Commodores hope that a week off to heal up and a few defensive tweaks by the coaches will get them going again.
The Commodores (3-3, 0-3 Southeastern Conference) are coming off the worst loss of coach James Franklin's tenure, though losing 51-28 to No. 14 Missouri doesn't look nearly as bad after the Tigers handed Georgia its first league loss.
Now Vanderbilt is preparing to host the battered and bruised 15th-ranked Bulldogs (4-2, 3-1) on Saturday, the first of three straight games against ranked SEC opponents. After Georgia, the Commodores hit the road to visit No. 7 Texas A&M with another open date before heading to No. 22 Florida.
Franklin said Monday that they studied a lot of tape and realized their offense is ahead of where it was this time a year ago. They also spent a lot of time recruiting during the open date and made some adjustments on defense to help a unit that has struggled with injuries and touchdowns.
"That's where you have to be careful," Franklin said. "You don't want to reinvent the wheel over the bye week and you just want to tweak some things that are simple adjustments for you, but give a different appearance to the defense, and that's all we are trying to do."
Linebacker Chase Garnham has not played since getting hurt in the opener. But the Commodores are getting back outside linebacker Karl Butler, a senior who missed the past three games with an undisclosed injury.
Franklin said they also discussed whether to go ahead and play some freshmen at linebacker rather than redshirt them. Butler's return helps postpone such a move for now.
"Based on the depth chart, you see now we haven't really decided to go in that direction," Franklin said. "We have some other things I think you'll see on Saturday besides just having Karl Butler back. You'll see some other things on Saturday we're doing to address those issues as well."
Vanderbilt posted some stingy defensive numbers last season and are struggling this season. The Commodores currently rank 58th giving up 390 yards a game, 64th in scoring defense and 84th in defensive pass efficiency. In SEC play, they have given up at least 35 points in losing each of their first three games this season.
Franklin said the responsibility always is on the coaches but he wants more sacks, pressures and tackles for loss from his defensive linemen. From his four seniors in the secondary, Franklin wants them to be more aggressive as well and create more turnovers that can help erase mistakes by the offense.
"I think we can play at a higher level, and that'll help us at linebacker as well," Franklin said.
Junior defensive end Kyle Woestmann said he feels like they got a bit complacent that they could easily come out and handle opponents. Then they found themselves being pushed around.
"That's not the way it is. I think our guys realize that after coming back to another tough SEC game and seeing what we really need to do and how hard we have to compete to play with big O linemen on the other side of the line of scrimmage," Woestmann said.
The Commodores found themselves in a similar situation a year ago with a sluggish start, and they finished the season by winning their final seven games including their bowl game. They insist they feel ready to make a similar sprint, even if half of their final six opponents are ranked in the Top 25.
"We really just need to stay close as a team," senior left tackle Wesley Johnson said. "We all realize that we have so many games left, we just need to finish strong like we have done in the past."

Modifying Course Mappings
Modifying Course Mappings
You may change the evaluation that a course is mapped to only if no evaluations for that course have been submitted. Even if evaluations have been submitted, you may still change the Close Date and/or Release Date. For instance, you may check an evaluation's status and find that the day before it closes, only 10% of students have submitted. You may wish to extend the Close Date and urge students to complete the evaluation.
Before students may use an evaluation for a specific course, that course section must be mapped to an evaluation that you have already created or edited. Mapping the evaluation simply tells the system which evaluation you wish to use for a specific course section. One evaluation will often be mapped to many course sections, and may even be used for different courses. For example, Dental Hygiene may wish to use one evaulation for all undergraduate Dental Hygiene courses, and a different evaluation for all graduate courses.
- Access the Online Course Evaluation Admin site.
- Select Modify Course Mapping , then click Perform Selected Action.
- Select a Term and click Submit.
- Select a specific Session if you wish, and click Submit (most users simply leave Session set to All).
- Choose a Department from the Dept. drop-down list and click Submit.
- Choose a Subject, then click Submit (sometimes there will only be one subject).
- You will now see a list of course sections matching the criteria you have selected, their current mapping, and whether or not each evaluation has answers (in which case you may not re-map it). There are several options:
- To change a course section's evaluation (re-map it), choose the new Evaluation to Use under Evaluation Options.
- Select (check the checkbox of) the course section(s) whose mappings you would like to re-map to this evaluation. Note that you may modify multiple sections at once to the same evaluation (but only if they have no answers). In the screenshot below, we have chosen to map the evaluation "(554) BA 500 " to the first 2 sections of Accounting 205 in the list that were initially mapped to "(1841) ACC 999 Courses.". Click Update Selected to map the evaluation to those sections.
- If you wish to change any dates, you may re-select (check the checkbox of) the section(s) whose Open, Close and/or Release Dates you wish to change, and use the appropriate calendar tool to choose a new date. In the example below, we are selecting a new Close Date for the first ACC-205 section; once you have chosen a new date in the calendar, be sure to click Update Selected to enter the new date.
- Once you have updated the mapping and (if necessary) any dates, be sure that all course sections you wish to modify are still selected (checked) and click Submit to apply all of your changes. This may take awhile, depending on how many courses you are modifying.
After submitting you should receive a confirmation screen showing your changes.
- To change a course section's evaluation (re-map it), choose the new Evaluation to Use under Evaluation Options.

Holiday Bash will be a major fundraiser this year for several area charities.
Holiday Bash officially kicked off this morning at the Corvette Museum.
"When you are giving to this event you are truly helping. So many people with this event from children to disaster victims to research for disease," says Holiday Bash Coordinator Paula Kirby.
Holiday Bash is a mass benefit that helps seventeen 17 throughout South Central Kentucky.
"Chuck himself, who used to own Chuck's Liquor Outlets was a very giving man and in order to continue the tradition we decided it was best to do it this way," says Sarah Baker with Chuck's United Hope Foundation.
Baker says the Foundation was started when several charities approached Chuck's Liquor Store about possible donations.
Since laws forbade them from donating to charities, they started their own charity so they could donate money.
"We represent all types of family members and help them sustain a quality of life," says Jill Moore with Kentucky Legal Aid.
Kentucky Legal Aid is a non-profit company that receives money from donations and federal and state funding.
It provides its clients with lawyers free of charge.
It's a season for giving, and Holiday Bash is a rare opportunity for several charities to get the money they need.
"It is pretty unique to have so many charities working together, because most of the time we are competing for the same fundraising dollar, but I think it just says so much about South Central Kentucky and about this community that everyone can come together at this holiday time," Maria Fisher with the Big Brothers Big Sisters of South Central Kentucky.
Big Brothers Big Sisters is the nation's biggest mentoring organizations providing children in need with big "brothers" and "sisters".
"We're all coming together as one great group, and I really think it helps us all to raise even more money," says Julia Seiler with the Bowling Green Junior Women's Club.
The Junior Women's Club is a group of women that volunteers their time to several charities in the area.
The Corvette Museum is currently displaying 16 Christmas Trees, which will be available for auction.
If you are interested in purchasing a Christmas Tree to benefit one of the charities, you can bid on them on proxibid.com.
The Ronnie Dunn Benefit Concert tomorrow night could provide upwards of $100,000 to the 17 charities.
Fifty tickets are still left for the Ronnie Dunn concert.

A jury of 12 has been picked from 975 people called in the case of a man charged with killing a woman in 2010.
McCracken Circuit Judge Craig Clymer and attorneys weeded through prospective panelists in the case of Mark Taylor. He's charged with murder, kidnapping and tampering with evidence.
The case stems from the death of 21-year-old CaSondra Evrard, who was found dead in a creek bed with stab wounds to her chest and cuts to her neck and face on Dec. 11, 2010.
WPSD-TV in Paducah reported that opening statements were scheduled to begin later Monday.
Prosecutors will ask for a death sentence for Taylor if he's convicted.
Five other people have pleaded guilty. Taylor's daughter, Jasmine Taylor, is scheduled to stand trial in March.

Justin Kropka has been selected to coach the South team in the North-South All-Star Football Game April 27 at Dayton Welcome Stadium in Divisions IV, V and VI.
The Harrison Central head coach was nominated and voted in by his peers.
"It's such a great thing, such an honor when your peers vote you to do something," he said. "When your peers throughout Ohio say yes to you, you don't turn that down.
"I have a deep appreciation for that kind of thing. If I am going to do it, I am going to do the best possible job I can do to represent the Ohio Valley. I want to represent us as well as I can. Not just Harrison Central, but all the schools."
It is the first year for two all-star games.
The divisions were split after the Big 33 backed out of the Penn-Ohio game and left many Ohio all-star football players with nowhere to play.
"Without the split, there was a really good chance that Division I full scholarship players would not be able to play in the North-South game," said Kropka, who just finished his eighth season with the Huskies. "Everybody did the right thing by splitting the game into two games. Judging by the reaction we have received from small school kids, they are really excited.
"We have some great football players. We have about a dozen D1 kids. Our tight end is going to Notre Dame and a linebacker to WVU. This is no B team."
The roster is filled with 36 players, including a place kicker. Kropka filled four of those spots with Harrison Central's Nick Pelegreen and St. Clairsville's Dan Monteroso, Matt Kinnick and Corey Ernest.
"Those kids from St. Clairsville left an indelible impression on me because I was the only coach to play them twice," said Kropka. "When we played them the first time, we had two, three films, plus my film, and when we played them the second time (in the first round of the Division IV playoffs), I had two, three more films, plus my film.
"I have seen those kids on film, seven or eight times. I know they are all good kids and I know what they can do.
"We also have two kids from (Division IV state champion) Clinton-Massie. We have some really, really good kids.
"But, I sure the North has the same."
He also tabbed good friend Brett McClean, the boss at St. Clairsville, to be the offensive coordinator.
"It should be really interesting with me and Brett on the same side," Kropka said with a laugh. "We've always talked hypotheticals - 'Wouldn't it be great if we get to do this, or we get to do that.'
"Well, we get to do this.
"We have hit this hard. He just barely got done with his season and I called and asked him to do this. It's great to have a local guy, especially a good friend like Brett. I'm sure this favor will be called in some day.
"I promised him I wouldn't get in the way too much."
Kropka, Harrison Central's winningest head coach at 43-38, was the offensive coordinator in the North-South game in 2007.
"On my way home from the game in '07 I told myself that if I ever got the opportunity to do this again, I would be a good position coach and enjoy myself, enjoy the kids and let someone else be the head coach," he said.
"Your guess is as good as mine why they chose me to be the head coach
The first practice is March 17 at Ohio State's Woody Hayes Center. They will also practice April 7 and 14 at the same facility. The participants will report to Dayton on April 25, with practices on April 25-26 and the game at 4 p.m. on the 27th.
The Division I-III game will be held at noon.

There have been several instances where I have made a fairly elaborate response to a question, only to have it be closed a few seconds before I have posted my solution. This is incredibly annoying, and I was wondering if StackOverflow might consider changing the interface so that one cannot start editing/posting a new answer once the question has been closed, but answers crafted while the question was still open will be allowed to be submitted. What do others think about this approach to closing questions?
What is meta?
- Any Stack Exchange user can ask a question
- The community provides support, votes on ideas, and reports bugs
- Your voice helps shape the way Stack Exchange operates
Questions usually get closed for a good reason. And if so, you shouldn't answer them in the first place.
If a question is closed when it shouldn't, it will be opened again, most probably, so just copy your elaborate answer to some file, waiting for that to happen, and answer again.
That is an excellent idea, there's nothing worse than spending time on an answer, to find it was all a waste. It shouldn't be too hard to implement that.
This used to happen, actually, until people realized that they could post to closed questions simply by changing the HTML on the page to submit a reply to a closed question. Instead of adding security to prevent this but still allow users to complete their responses to a question that's closed, the ability to post to a closed question was removed completely.
Now when posting a reply, there is a periodic check (I think it's every minute, but I'm not sure) to see if any new answers are posted, and to see if the question has been closed in the meantime. As such, you'll only lose a minute's worth of creating an answer. Sure, it's annoying, but losing a minute isn't that big of a deal.
It has happened to me a few times, and is highly annoying. The notion that only questions that should get deleted get deleted is wrong. Sometimes, people will delete their questions on a whim.
I wouldn't touch the asker's ability to delete their question, though. It should rather be ensured that the answer doesn't get lost (i.e. that <10k answerers have the chance to salvage the text through copy+paste).
If the answerer was posting a brilliant answer, it stands to reason they can open a question of their own, and answer it.

Ive spent many years troubleshooting equipment, along
with investigative research. In research-statistical design,
data analysis is frequently used when test information is
available. This article shows how very basic data analysis can
be quite useful in troubleshooting.
Most specialists are knowledgeable about plotting histograms
and the value obtainable from such graphs as represented by the
distribution of collected data. Remember:
When looking for an answer, a good place to start is to
follow the data. In this case history, we will review a
production line that machines a precision groove in a casting
bore for automotive use. Hundreds of thousands of casting bores
are machined annually, and the groove out of roundness must be
maintained within ± 0.003 in. on the diameter since a
seal fits within the groove.
Fig. 1 shows one of the many clamping
fixtures on the production line, which holds the casting for
machining. To analyze clamping forces for this application, a
load cell was designed to replace the part in the assembly and
measure the clamping force. The load cell was moved from
fixture to fixture. Periodically, a casting would be machined
out of round. It was believed that the fixtures
might be clamping too tightly or too loosely, thus causing the
Fig. 1. Clamping fixture
The fixture is designed so that, when torque is applied via
a hydraulic motor, as shown in Fig. 1, the
part is clamped into place by screw action. A force,
F, clamps the part securely in place. With too much
clamping force, the part can distort and squeezed into an oval
shape. When the grooving tool makes the groove, it is a true
circle. When the part is squeezed too much, it
becomes distorted when unclamped. Result: The
part is rejected.
A known torque of 300 in.-lb was applied to each fixture,
and the force measured on 215 fixtures. Fig. 2
shows the distribution of the measured parts quality from
this study. A statistical analysis of the data determines the
interaction of the many variables; however, one observation is
obvious from Fig. 2the clamping force
varies too much from fixture to fixture. Since the force is
directly related to the out of round of the groove, this
condition directly contributed to the reject rate. The
machining operation is designed for a 2,000-lb to 3,000-lb
clamping force.
Fig. 2. Clamping force
distribution results on
manufacturing assembly.
Other causes contributed to the rejection rate and poor
quality of the parts. But the worn-out fixtures and poor
calibration of the torque motors were the leading factors of
poor quality and low production. Making those needed repairs
reduced the reject rate by 70%.
Obviously, these manufacturing operations are not directly
applicable to the hydrocarbon processing industry. However,
specialists should understand that even basic plotting of data
can provide valuable troubleshooting information. In this case,
spread of the data represents a deviation from the norm. The
troubleshooting process should then question what has caused
such a spread.
In Case 72: Statistical visual data can be useful in
troubleshootingPart 2, the example investigates how
a simple analytical model could have been applied before any
data is collected. This example illustrates the effect of
friction and torque on the clamping
force. HP

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

I was told that I should start learning Linear Algebra in order to create good games with good physics.
I'm reading Linear Algebra book and it's completely foreign to me. The author starts out with solving linear equations (two equations, two variables) and I remember learning about that in school, but almost immediately he jumps into other things that seem to be taken directly from the Necronomicon.
What book can I read to learn some good math, but starting from the fundamentals; I want to be wined and dined, not savagely raped with a rusty tire iron.
Thanks a lot for the help.

COPPERAS COVE (October 31, 2012)--Dante LeRoy Cross, 22, of Copperas Cove has been charged with seven counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon in an incident on Oct. 23 in which shots were fired at a car after an argument at a local car wash.
Cross was arrested Monday and was later taken to the Coryell County Jail where he was ordered held in lieu of bonds totaling $700,000.
On Oct. 23, officers responded to a report of gunfire in the 600 block of North 1st Street.
They determined that several residents were at a car wash at 602 North 1st St. where four other people with whom they argued confronted them.
After the argument, the four left, but one of them returned with a handgun.
The seven intended victims attempted to escape in a vehicle, but the man began to fire at their 2013 Hyundai Elantra.
One of the seven suffered a minor injury that didn't require medical treatment.

Thanks Laura for keeping it real for 99.
Woot Episode
Looking forwards to Episode 100.
I must say, I took part in the Guiness Record too, but it certainly isn't something that is going to be used for a pickup line :/
Was that an hint? that Paul wears heels.
After 99 shows of renaming the High WMV download with an additional digit (Ping99_2Mb_ch9.wmv vs. Ping099_2Mb_ch9.wmv) next week it all pays off... I knew you'd last.
Keep up the great work, and it was great meeting you today Paul.

Ironically, as "smooth streaming" was mentioned, my playback changed to 'buffering'...
Great show as usual. Good to find out about how the location data is used on WP7 ... now I can answer some questions people have been asking me.
I'm not sure what you've experienced but Ribbon Hero worked fine for me. It seems to open the challenges in another window so my unsaved changes weren't lost. It's a pretty cool game/idea. I hope this will finally stop my parents from constantly asking me how to do things in Office. How about making a similar game for Windows?

I have a Manfroto 190B tripod, and a 141RC Head.
As the head is HUGE i descided not to use it with my NN3.
But the center hole inside the NN3 to attach it to the tripod is to small.
I can use one of the outer holes, but then the NN3 isn't mounted on the center of the tripod.
Is this ok or am i doing it wrong?
Also, for the shots all the way down, to you usualy shoot these from the hand?
Thanks for the help!

Oda clan used guns to great efficency against the Takeda clan but which warlord (or faction) used them for the first time? I seem to recall that some of the sohei order had access to firearms and that is where Oda got the idea to use them en mass but I cannot find the source.
Around 1542 (the date is not certain) a Chinese junk was blown onto the shores of the island of Tanegashima off the southern coast of Kyushu. On board were three Portuguese travellers, the first Westerners to land on Japanese soil.
To Lord Tokitada, the daimyo of Tanegashima, the most strking thing about the stranded Westerners were the guns that two of them carried. Having witnessed one of the Portuguese shoot a duck, he arranged for lessons and bought both guns for 2000 taels of gold.
Tokitada employed his swordsmith, Yatsuita Kinbei, to make copies of the weapons, going so far as to trade his seventeen year old daughter for the technology to cut a screw for the breach plug.
Within ten years, the weapons were being manufactured on a much larger scale and began to appear on the battlefield. I don't have a reference for the first time they were used en mass, but two early adopters that have stood out:
If I find a reference with a more specific instance, I will update it here.

ANDERSON, S.C. – On the heels of a seventh-place finish at last Tuesday's Agnes McAmis Memorial, the Anderson University women's golf team is slated to return to the links for the three-day Food Lion South Atlantic Conference Championship, beginning on Sunday at the Sevierville Country Club in Sevierville, Tenn.
The Trojans enter the tourney with some momentum after posting their second-best finish of the spring schedule, as they head back to the Volunteer State for the second time in less than a week.
Senior Katie Eskew paced AU with a ninth place on the day, while junior Sarah Timms shared 28th and sophomore Garyt Hamilton notched a share of 44th. Fellow sophomore Braiden Furtick finished in a tie for 50th, with junior Natalie Feder closing the afternoon in a tie for 56th.
Last year's SAC Championship saw the Trojans finish seventh on the same course, with Feder sharing 27th, while Hamilton was 29th. Eskew notched a share of 34th Timms was 38th.

I've got an idea that indirect proof must work. Assuming that the set is recursive and ... But I have no idea how to go on from here.

Dollhouse Display Unit
I built this dollhouse for my wife a few years ago. The problem was that we had no place to display it. So I built this unit which adds cabinet space for storage and a new home for her dollhouse. The dollhouse stand is built such that it can be used as a desk should we ever move. It also has "hidden" rollers which allow it to slide forward to display the dollhouse interior.

- Information About Life & Study in St. Louis
Money & Banking
U.S. currency is based on the dollar. Dollars are made of paper and are also known as bills, bucks, or cash. They are printed in green and come in denominations of $1, $5, $10, $20, $50, & $100. Coins are produced in silver and copper. The penny (one cent) is the only copper colored coin. The nickel (five cents) is larger than a penny. The dime (ten cents) is the smallest coin, and the quarter (25 cents) is larger than the nickel. A one dollar gold coin is legal tender and might be given as change from the post office.
US Bank (www.usbank.com) has an office on our campus, located on the lower level of the Busch Student Center. They offer full banking services, including checking and savings accounts. To open an account, you will need your passport, your local address, and at least $100 USD in the form of a check or cash. It is recommended to open a checking account soon after your arrival in the United States so that you may use a personal check with your name, address, and account number to pay bills (such as telephone) and when making other purchases. Although theft is not a problem on SLU's campus, storing cash in your residence hall or apartment is prohibited.
US Bank also operates two ATMs on campus. They are located in DuBourg and Fusz Halls.
Other full service banks available in the St. Louis area include Bank of America, Commerce Bank, and UMB.
Carrying Money
Do not carry or keep large sums of cash or valuables in your residence hall or apartment. Deposit money into a bank account. Valuables such as jewelry or important documents can be stored in a safety deposit box at your bank. The federal government insures most U.S. banks (look for the term "FDIC"); therefore, your deposits are guaranteed.
When traveling, do not carry large amounts of cash with you. Purchase traveler's checks from your bank. If these are stolen or lost, they can be replaced.
Billiken Bucks
Your picture student I.D. serves as your identification card for university purposes (i.e. entry to the library, gym, and computer labs, and to borrow books and equipment). You also can deposit money into a Billiken Bucks account, which operates much like an ATM card. This card can be used to purchase food and other items on campus and in nearby restaurants. To purchase Billiken Bucks, go to the Department of Parking and Card Services in DuBourg Hall 33.


text: Nobody likes a stiff who is uncomfortable in his or her own skin. Nobody likes a total slob either. Don't give the impression your organization skills have gone inept and slack. Hangers made to keep your pants looking great and hangers made to keep your skirts looking fabulous can make or break your presentation of yourself. Keep your wardrobe and your clothing looking tip-top and in shape by hanging them on the right hanger for your clothes. Now, your big presentation to your company's biggest client, that's on you to make fabulous. We can only help your closet be fabulous.SlacksDon't hang it up on just anything. Pants should be hung on hangers for pants. Wooden pants hangers, plastic pants hangers, and pants hangers with clips – find them all. Pick just one or pick them all. Create the right closet organizing trouser rack for you. The closet trouser organizer isn't going to happen with those wire hangers. Your pants will simply slide off of them and end up in a crumpled heap on the floor. Remember what we said about looking like a slob? Don't be that slob. SkirtsLadies, don't think you are off the hook either. Don't fold you're a-line skirt in half and precariously balance it on that wire hanger. Hang your skirt on a skirt hanger. A skirt hanger can keep that a-line skirt looking like you can hold your own lines (and curves) quite well. Plastic skirt hangers, wooden skirt hangers, and multiple skirt hanger can all do the job of keeping your skirts (and you) looking fabulous. Get some hangers for skirts that work for you. No one wants a rumpled skirt at the beginning of the day. At the end of the day, now, that's a different matter altogether. PlasticPlastic hangers are ideal for anyone and any kind of clothing. Just make sure they are also designed for your particular type of clothing. Having some plastic pant and skirt hangers – well, let's just say you can never have too many of them.WoodenFeeling a little bohemian? Ok. Maybe you aren't the bohemian type, but you do prefer the beauty and quality of natural products like wood pant hangers. Pant – skirt hangers made of wood are your kind of call to your wild side. Wooden trouser hangers – who would have thought you had it in you, you tiger you? Wood skirt hangers say you are fabulous and you know that your closet exemplifies fab-u-lous-ness. You got it on. MultipleAlways the practical one, you need efficient hanging storage out of your pant/skirt hangers. Metal skirt hangers? You don't care as long as it is a tier skirt hanger. Add on skirt hangers and just keep adding those skirts onto a single hanger made for multiples. This just gives you the excuse you crave to go shopping for even more skirts. ClipsJust clip it. Don't let any of your pants or skirts fall to the floor ever again. Pant clamp hangers or hangers with clips are going to keep your pants (or skirts) looking as fresh as the day they were laundered. No sliding off of the hanger onto the floor. No bunching up at one end of the hanger creating those unattractive wrinkles. Slack hanger pants with clips – clip'em. Multiple skirt hanger with clips – clip'em. Wooden trouser clamp hangers – you guessed it, clip'em. Clamp the pant and don't worry about them anymore. Clip the skirt and wear it wrinkle free. Don't leave your closet hanging – without the right pants hangers and the right skirt hangers. Organize your closet your way. Have a fabulous closet, fabulous clothes, and a fabulous you.

Wondering how I can add a stylesheet to wp_head section via shortcode, since shortcodes are parsed after wp_head, I've hearing about output buffering but I Am not sure.
Any idea?
here is a handy function i use a lot which is based on
If you add your stylesheet via wp_head, your styles will be applied just fine.
This works for one of my plugins:
To have a user override your CSS file and use the styles in their stylesheet, have them place the following into their functions.php file.:
Doing it this way gives you and the user the benefit to cache the file instead of systematically trying to determine if the shortcode is on the page or not. Plus, you'll give control back to the user by letting them override your CSS in favor of their own.
I use the YepNope script loader to load all the external CSS/JS. Within your plugin, check to see if the shortcode has been run, then either set a global var or a class variable (depending on implementation. I recommend using classes). If that variable is true, then add the script loader to wp_footer.
When the site loads, the script loader will automatically grab your CSS/JS and append them to the header of your site.

I am confronted with the following scaling equation (in Laplace domain if that matters):
$\tilde\psi(s) = a \tilde\psi(s/b)$
I know the answer is such that $\tilde\psi(s) \sim s^{\beta} K(s)$ where $\beta = \ln a/\ln b$ and I don't really care what K is. I'm not sure if the functions $\tilde\psi(s)$ are need to solve this but I do know them if they are necessary. How is this type of equation solved?

The refiner will combine UOP's Unicracking hydroprocessing solutions with EMRE's distillate and lubricant de-waxing technologies. The complex will upgrade more than 45,000 bpd of kerosene, diesel and vacuum gas oil feedstock into high-quality diesel and jet fuels.
The alliance of Honeywells UOP and ExxonMobil Research
and Engineering Co. (EMRE) was chosen Tuesday by Rafinerija
Nafte Brod, Bosnia and Herzegovinas sole oil refinery, to provide technology for
upgrading the quality of refined lubricants and fuels.
The licensing agreement is the first under a joint licensing
alliance formed by UOP and EMRE last year.
The new technology will allow Rafinerija Nafte Brod to improve
its product quality and environmental performance, the
companies said.
The refiner will combine UOPs Unicracking
hydroprocessing solutions with EMREs distillate and
lubricant de-waxing technologies to produce ultra-clean jet and
diesel fuels and high-quality lubricant base stocks.
The new Unicracking complex will help the refinery increase its fuel and lube
yields through an integrated and cost-effective approach,
said Pete Piotrowski, vice president and general manager of
process technology and equipment for UOP.
The EMRE technology platform provides a
one-stop solution for Rafinerija Nafte Brods
hydroprocessing and fuel de-waxing needs, added Vince
Alberico, manager of technology, sales and licensing for
The complex will include UOPs two-stage
Unicracking process integrated with ExxonMobils
MSDW process for selective dewaxing lubricant feedstocks, and its MIDW
processes for dewaxing diesel feedstocks.
The complex will upgrade more than 45,000 bpd of kerosene,
diesel and vacuum gas oil feedstock into high-quality diesel
and jet fuels.
It will also produce high-quality base oils that will be
used for the production of Group II and Group III lubricants at
Refineria Ulia Modricha, which is part of the oil refining production chain in Bosnia
and Herzegovina.
The new complex is scheduled to start operations in
UOP says its Unicracking technology provides flexibility to
upgrade a variety of feedstocks to high-quality, lighter
transportation fuel products.
It can also be used to produce low-sulfur naphthas for
reforming into gasoline, or to upgrade FCC products for
additional distillate production or sulfur removal.
Meanwhile, ExxonMobils MSDW and MIDW
processes are advanced proprietary technologies to optimize
production of lubricants and distillate fuels, the company
The MSDW process is designed to overcome
high-sulfur environments and provides the
highest yields and viscosity available in the industry,
according to the company. MIDW is a selective catalytic
dewaxing process that can improve yields of high-quality diesel
with positive cold flow properties.

A searchable database of project activity in the global hydrocarbon processing industry
Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

This question already has an answer here:
I see the mantra of "profiling before optimization" repeated again and again here, on SO, and elsewhere. Although I certainly use profiling tools, I'm only occasionally surprised by the results. It seems like, as often as not, the profiler is just giving the same information that you could reasonably deduce by knowing the likely execution path of your program, understanding how your architecture works, and having a good idea of what optimization techniques the compiler can employ for you.
Because of this, I generally find that when I'm developing, I see areas of the code that I can sense are going to be bottlenecks (often times when writing the code I will think to myself "hey, this is going to be a critical part of the code, and needs to be fast, but I will use a slower implementation first to prove the concept, then optimize it later") and I just go ahead and optimize these areas before I bother doing much profiling.
Is this really such a bad practice, or is it just the natural result of gaining experience doing optimization?
I just wanted to point out that I do use profilers, I'm just wondering how bad it's considered to be to pick off the low hanging fruit first, rather than waiting for the profiler to prove something is slow.
Edit 2
Thanks for the insights so far everyone. People have posted a lot of good comments. I have to say that I still have mixed feelings about some of the advice here, but it's given me a lot of insight into why people make the statement.
