Hey TwiggPosted: Oct 07, 2008 12:00AM PST by tommylop1
There is more then just a camera going on to this new DS, DSI pretty much puts the DS on the same level has the PSP when it comes to portable multimedia device (minus the crappy UMD movies of course), it has flash drive and web broswer that can let you listen to music and surf the web. And it's flash drive will be able to download original DS games off of it's own shop channel. If that's not enough to get excited for then nothing is.
I wonder....Posted: Oct 06, 2008 12:00AM PST by CosmosTheMouse
I wonder what the .3mp camera will be used for. I'm going to take a wild guess and say not taking pictures. It's going to be just like the microphone on the DS now! Completely not used for it's intended purpose. *Blow into mic now* *BLOW! Blow into that dang thing!* *Now make a fire... BLOW!!!*
Camera, a good idea.Posted: Oct 06, 2008 12:00AM PST by SamuraiTerry
My 3 year daughter always steals my cell phone and takes pictures. She also plays Duck Amuck on her DS. Maybe if she had a camera on her DS she would leave my phone alone.
The mailbagPosted: Oct 06, 2008 12:00AM PST by TwiggVanDanger
is getting stranger and stranger. Anyway, the DSi news is pretty dissapointing. Does the DS really need a camera? And no GBA slot? Seriously, what's going on.

They can cut to zero if the banks wont lend it doesn't matter. Been saying that for months.Fed has to be the bank, and they're starting with 1.3T too little too late.Dow 6500. SandP tests 777. Pacific Rim at 10% the peak across the board.
I think you guys are too pessimistic about the world economy. There are problems with financial system around the world but I think the governments of major countries can work together to get these probelms resolved soon.A reccession like 1929 will not happen. At that time, US is a single country trying to resolve its problem; but now almost all the governments around the world can work together to get these problems done. For example, China has huge amount of dollars and they will inject the money into US financial system. I don't think the sky will collapse. The run will rise as usual tomorrow.

Crunched By His Big Tax Cuts, Scott Walker Will Skip $108 Million In Debt Payments
CREDIT: AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) will skip making $108 million in debt payments in the face of a budget shortfall due to a slew of tax cuts he enacted.
The governor has to close a $283 million shortfall by the end of June. To do so, he will delay making the $100 million payment that is due in May on short-term debt, which doesn't require legislative approval. The terms of the debt allow the state to defer a payment in any given year without defaulting. The move will increase its debt-service bills by $545,000 in the next budget year starting July 1 and by $18.7 million in the following one.
A spokesperson for the Wisconsin Department of Administration told Bloomberg News that the state is taking advantage of "favorable short-term interest rates." He also noted that the previous Democratic governor used similar budgeting tools.
Walker has pushed for and enacted more than $2 billion in tax cuts since he took office in 2011. Although the state had a surplus of $759 million last year, it now faces a projected shortfall that could wind up being more than $2 billion for the next two budget years.
His latest budget, which he unveiled earlier this month, seeks even more property tax cuts. At the same time, it cuts $300 million from the state's public universities as well as cuts to public media and the Department of National Resources. It also seeks new borrowing: $1.3 billion to cover transportation projects instead of increasing the gas tax and more than $200 million to finance a new basketball stadium.
Walker's not the only governor trying to find ways to plug budget holes created by big tax cuts. To pay for massive tax cuts enacted in 2012, which have led to millions in budget shortfalls, Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback (R) is seeking to cut school funding by $127 million and to delay pension fund payments. Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal (R) has to close a $1.6 billion budget hole created largely by his massive tax breaks for the wealthy and corporations and has proposed slashing the state's public college budget by nearly a third.
Walker has come under fire for other parts of his budget plan, such as a push to drug test anyone who receives unemployment benefits or food stamps. While at least 12 other states have passed drug testing programs for public benefits, most are for welfare applicants. Some of those programs have been struck down by the courts, while others come at a high cost without uncovering much drug abuse at all.

Can I configure a .NET application in a way (settings in Visual Studio) that it references a "local" assembly (not in GAC) instead of an assembly within the GAC, although both assemblies have the same name and the same version?
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
If both assemblies are strong-named (signed), the CLR will always load from the GAC.
Here are the steps the runtime uses to resolve assembly references (from How the Runtime Locates Assemblies):
As stated later in that same article:
So if you can afford to remove signing from the local assembly, the application will use it instead of the one in the GAC.
For more detail than you could probably ever want about the runtime-binding mechanisms, see Suzanne Cook's blog.
This blog entry from Scott Hanselman also provides a great overview of the binding process.
Did you see this answer?
It sounds like you are trying to do the same thing.
If you can change the version number of the local dll, you can use a dll version redirect using the oldVersion attribute. You can use a strong name for the local assembly: Please look this page: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/7wd6ex19.aspx
Also you should consider that it is possible to modify the version number of a compiled assembly like it is described here: Change Assembly Version in a compiled .NET assembly
To successfully deploy your .NET Framework application, you must understand how the common language runtime locates and binds to the assemblies that make up your application. By default, the runtime attempts to bind with the exact version of an assembly that the application was built with. This default behavior can be overridden by configuration file settings.
You can view binding information in the log file using the Assembly Binding Log Viewer (Fuslogvw.exe), which is included in the Windows Software Development Kit (SDK).

|Contract of Darty Confidence
Darty plc (formerly Kesa Electricals plc) is a multinational electrical retailing company headquartered in London, United Kingdom. It is listed on the London Stock Exchange.
In 1957, the Darty family — the father and his three sons, Nathan, Marcel and Bernard — managed a small store of textiles. The Darty brothers started to sell stock, and, to attract customers, they left the goods on the pavement. In a few days, the stock was sold. In 1967 the Darty brothers transferred to a larger warehouse. In 1988, the company proceeded with the repurchase of the company by its employees through a management buyout thus showing economic and social innovation. The operation was a success, since 90% of employees took part and controlled 56% of the capital. At the end of 1988 Darty opened its 100th store.[2]
In 1993, Darty was bought by Kingfisher plc, which integrated Darty and Comet, in a European entity based in Paris: Kingfisher Electricals S.A. ('Kesa'). In 1999 this led to Darty opening up a commercial Internet site. This entity increased in size through acquisitions and, at the beginning of 2003, included Darty and But in France, Comet in the United Kingdom, BCC in the Netherlands, Vanden Borre in Belgium and Datart in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. In 2006, Darty launched DartyBox, which is an ADSL internet, television and telecommunications provider based on the network of French internet operator Completel.[3]
The company was demerged from Kingfisher plc in July 2003.[4] In July 2007, the Company bought Menaje Del Hogar, a Spanish electrical retail chain.[5] On 6 July 2009, the company sold its Swiss operation.[6] In February 2012, the company completed the sale of Comet Group, which they sold in November 2011, to OpCapita for £2, and also paid the purchaser a "sweetener" of £50 million to take the loss-making venture away.[7]
On 31 July 2012, Kesa Electricals was renamed Darty plc.[8]
In November 2015, Darty plc reached an agreement to merge with the French retailer Fnac.[9] In March 2016, Darty announced it had instead agreed to be purchased by Steinhoff International for £673 million, through Steinhoff's Conforama subsidiary.[10] Fnac returned with a higher offer, resulting in a bidding war between Fnac and Conforama during April 2016.[11] The Fnac offer was declared unconditional on 19 July 2016 thereby allowing the takeover to be completed.[12]
Darty is headquartered in London. It has sourcing offices based in Paris and Hong Kong, as well as a wholly owned wholesaler of electrical accessories, Dacem, who supply all of Darty's European operations.[13]
Its structure is as follows:
- Darty France: retailer in France; operates 222 stores with 321,800 square metres of selling space
- BCC: retail and E-commerce in Belgium and the Netherlands; operates 75 stores with 89,800 square metres of selling space
- Vanden Borre: retailer in Belgium; operates 62 stores with 55,600 square metres of selling space

Abstract"Impact Technologies, in collaboration with Boeing Phantom Works and Moog Inc., proposes to develop and demonstrate a prognostic modeling paradigm for use with actuator fault detection to failure progression. Actuators are complex mechanisms utilized invarious aircraft systems from flight control surfaces to landing gear, cargo doors and weapon systems. Impact has previously developed PHM techniques applicable to hydraulic pumps and engine control system components. These proven approaches along withnovel tracking methods will be pursued in this research, using system models, failure mode diagnostics, advanced knowledge fusion, and failure mode progression (prognostic) algorithms in a probabilistic framework. Utilizing available real-timecommand/response data from actual flight control actuators and this model-based framework, Impact will demonstrate prognostic algorithms that provide an assessment of the current actuator health state and provide a prognosis of the actuator's useful liferemaining. The adaptation of these methods and architecture to hydraulic, hydro-electrical, and electrical actuator systems will also be addressed. BenefitsThe deployed actuator diagnostic/prognostic techniques and associated reasoning architecture generated under this program will improve aircraft control system safety and reliability, allow for optimized maintenance/logistics planning, reduceownership costs, and increase operational availability.

Who Needs Hands To Drift?
Drifter Bartosz Ostalowski didn't give up on motorsport after losing both arms in an accident. Now he changes gears with his upper arm using a custom shifter extension and steers with one foot. Here's a look into how Ostalowski truly made his drift car his own to get fantastically sideways.

I am trying to understand the Layouting system in Silverlight, but I don't really know how the process works. I know that Measure is always called before and then when all the measures have been done the Arrange starts. But when exactly does this process start, and are we able to control it? Please don't write de MSDN library link, I have already read it, and it's not clear at all..
My specific situation is that I have some nested LinearLayouts (inherit class from Panel and Arrangeoverride and MEasureoverride work) but I need the rootcontainer size(because they sizes are pertentages of the parent), and I can't get it until all the elements are loaded in the tree, so I call arrange() in LayoutRoot_Loaded. It works, yes, but It does the layouting process like 3 times and that is not efficient for the whole system... Can anybody help?? or at least explain how the Layouting system can be totally managed by the programmer :-)
Thank yyoouuuuuuuu!!!

Beaniemoo replied to Beaniemoo's topic in Wheels & TyresWow, cheers fella that'd be great! Any info will definately help.
Beaniemoo posted a topic in Wheels & TyresHi all I need some help identifying some ford steel wheels please from someone who truely knows some obscure things about ford wheels lol. Basically i need some very specific steel wheels namely a set of 15"x6" steels with an ET38 offset 4x108 stud patern. After some investigating it seems that these are either focus or mondeo wheels but i'm having trouble getting any more specific details. I work for vauxhall ( I know) and all our steels are marked with the offset on the wheel centres but none of the ford ones i've looked at are. Does anyone know of any identifying marks on ford steel wheels and even more helpful would be an explaination of how to decode these markings or which particular marking is from the wheels i'm after? Any info gratfully received, cheers. Chris

Did you watch any of the GOP convention last night? I sure did. I have thoughts about it, of course, but one thing relevant to this blog is how little I heard from the theocratic wing of the party. Very little, at least from the main speakers, about God or Jesus or what have you. Indeed, I only heard Mormonism mentioned once, by Ann Romney about her courtship with Mitt. Even Santorum was light on the fire and brimstone (but, shall we say, heavy-handed). Mike Huckabee comes on tonight, so, we may see some Bibles thumped yet.

Confirmed: Geoff Johns Is the New President of DC Entertainment
Comic Books, Film, TV
This feature is a lot like my Provide Some Answers feature, which is about long-running comic book plots finally being resolved. This, though, is a more specific comic book occurrence where the plotlines of a canceled comic book are wrapped up in the pages of another comic book series. This would happen most frequently in Marvel Comics, but other companies did it, as well.
Today, we look at how former Ghost Rider writer, Howard Mackie, wrapped up the plot on the then-canceled Ghost Rider series, in the pages of Peter Parker: Spider-Man…
In Ghost Rider #93, Ivan Velez Jr. and Javier Saltares set up the final issue of the second volume of Ghost Rider, and they ended the issue with Noble Kale, the man who was cursed to bond with his descendants to become the Ghost Rider, killing Blackheart and taking over Hell, but inadvertently killing his latest host, Daniel Ketch (who had been brought to Hell as part of a plan by his dead mother).
Velez planned on having Kale resurrect Danny in the next issue, but, well, the next issue never came out. Marvel was going through some financial issues and they just decided not to publish the last issue of Ghost Rider, so the plot was not resolved.
Go to the next page to see how Howard Mackie, the guy who launched this particular Ghost Rider volume, resolved everything (along with artist Javier Saltares, who also launched the volume with Mackie and had planned to close it out with Velez)…
interesting for never cared for dan and johny getting to be ghost rider due to nobel kane then after being free dan has to become ghost rider again . though like it that the story did get wrapped up .and would not be surprised to see omega the unknown here soon since it fits the colum idea
Just a note here – said Ghost Rider #94 was never published. Marvel did FINALLY publish it in 2007: http://marvel.com/comics/issue/5898/ghost_rider_finale_2007_1
Oh God…90's Marvel.
My eyes. My ears. My brain.
How depressing is it that 90s Marvel has been resurrected as most of the Nu DC?
You keep referring to the character as "Noble Kane" throughout the article, but it's actually "Noble KALE".
Thanks, Jay, just a little typo there. Fixed now!
Just a note here – said Ghost Rider #94 was never published. Marvel did FINALLY publish it in 2007: http://marvel.com/comics/issue/5898/ghost_rider_finale_2007_1
I know it eventually got published, so I really intended not to say "never" there, but I see I did slip a "never" in there by mistake. Edited it! Thanks for the head's up.
I'm not really a Ghost Rider fan, but the weird thing is that after this one issue of Peter Parker, Danny Ketch didn't appear again for about ten years, until Jason Aaron's run (if what I've read on the internet is to be believed). I know that at some point Johnny Blaze started regaining traction as a character, so I can see why one could think that having two Ghost Riders was redundant, but it's always struck me as weird that the character hadn't been killed or depowered or anything, yet was stuck in Comic Book Limbo.
I think Blaze started getting traction as a character again when they started making Ghost Rider movies with Cage as Johnny. Though funny enough the 2007 film release was probably the motivation for The Ghost Rider Finale book being published that year after 8 years or whatever.

Andrew Bogut:
Symbolized the story of the draft: Need trumped "Best Player Available," pushing several top BPAs into the teens (and to some lucky takers). Time will tell which camp was right.
The Lead Item
Two Words For You:
The biggest winner
of the 2005 NBA Draft was ...
The NBDL.
Based on the record number of prep picks and Euros (particularly in the second round), it felt like teams were drafting more for Ashville or Roanoke than Toronto or New York.
Make no mistake, for all the hand-wringing by the NBA over an age limit, last night its finest talent evaluators took MORE PREPS THAN EVER BEFORE. And that doesn't even consider the foreign projects.
For every instant contributor that fell into playoff teams' laps in the middle of the first round, there was notable after notable college player who joined the Roll Call of the Damned, otherwise known as "Undrafted."
Matt Walsh and Anthony Roberson, Randolph Morris and Kelenna Azubuike, Kennedy Winston, Dwayne Jones, Sean Banks, John Gilchrist, Eddie Basden, Will Bynum, Jawad Williams.
When your "untouchable" draft status makes even the sorry second-rounders look blessed, you've encountered a serious career problem.
Fans, meet your new and improved NBDL, keeping the NBA safe from prospects and projects everywhere.
High Heels
Well, no wonder UNC won the national title!
With four NBA Lottery picks on the floor, the Heels could have played in the NBA and finished higher than the Hawks or Bobcats.
So Charlotte smartly decided to simply import as much of the in-state talent as possible. Call it the "Can't Beat Em, Join Em" strategy.
They plugged holes at PG with Felton and PF with May -- but also capitalized on UNC cachet in a Tar Heel crazy city. Sellouts soothe losing.
Bogut may have been the top pick, but the Tar Heels owned the night.
College hoops cheerleaders can't claim a complete victory for "college experience" over those pesky preps and Euros. After all, top UNC draftee Marvin Williams was a mere freshman reserve.
But as pro teams and newly minted pro players check the day-after accounting for the draft's big winners and losers (next item), it's amazing that the one of the biggest winners was a college program.
Moonlight Graham: 100th anniversary of one game in majors
Curt Schilling: Makes rehab start tonight (AAA Pawtucket)
Augusta Nat'l: Expanding to 7445 yds (2nd longest major)
Oliver Perez: PIT SP on DL, broke toe kicking laundry cart
Lavar Arrington: Police looking into shooting at his party
NASCAR playoff fan vote: France stands by points system
Draft Winners/Losers
Danny Ainge, Celtics
Rob Babcock, Raptors
TOR should axe Bab, hire Chad
Danny Granger at No. 17!
Charlie Villanueva at 7?!
Pacers rule; Raps? Huge mess
2nd-round Sleeper:
Ryan Gomes to Boston at 50
Von Wafer to Lakers at 39
Celtics balance Green teen
Andrew "Babyface" Bynum
Monta Ellis, Lou Williams
None will get any PT anyway
Draft Cliche:
Runaway winner: "Length"
Frenchie Mikael Gelabale

Yankee Summit
No changes to coaching staff,
according to Cashman (via USA Today).
But read between the lines and the Yankees are under pressure to please the Boss and produce some results.
on the same day as the summit in Tampa, the team goes out and loses to the Orioles on a walk-off HR by Brian Roberts.
MLB Tuesday
All-Star voting:
Lee surging on Pujols at NL 1B! (Only 60K behind and closing fast). In another wild turn, Abreu now leads all NL OFs.
Travis Hafner's 9th-inning slam buries Foulke and the Red Sox. (Anderson, Ensberg, Atkins all hit slams, too.)
No 13 for D-Train:
Battered by the Braves. Will it hurt Willis' chances to start the All-Star Game? Let's check his nearest comp ...
Rocket foiled
by own team (again): Clemens left the game with a 4-run lead, which, as any Astros fan knows, is as good as a ND for Clemens.
Burnett going ... where?
He's open to a long-term deal with the O's, but the Red Sox are reportedly in the mix now, too. (via Wash. Post)
MLB milestone watch:
Craig Biggio was plunked by a pitch for the 267th time, tying him with Don Baylor for the modern record. (As has been suggested elsewhere, how about live look-ins for his at-bats?)
Must-follow Wednesday game:
Kerry Wood starts vs. Brewers
Roenick Clarifies
Naturally, he blames the media, saying they missed his point:
"My message during the interview was: How do we make the game more appealing to the fans?"
Sure, if "appealing" means "alienating."
Matt Walsh:
"I don't know who told Matt Walsh he was going to be a first-round pick. But whoever told him that was an idiot." When Jay Bilas calls you out ... ouch.

I am developing blackberry application in which i use forigen window to dispaly camera and other UI component upon camera. After update the BB10 alpha device software (10.0.6 Bundle 545) strip is display at bottom half of the screen and camera is not visible at that part. Before software update it works fine. So i just do not know how to resolve this issue.
I also run the sample application HelloCamera on Updated BB10 device it also gives the strip in half of the screen.
When we work with camera at that time only we face this issue. I run sample application with simple UI component without camera and it works fine.
I also attached the snap shot of native HelloCamera application. We face the same issue in our application.
Hi there,
This may be caused by the fact that the surface covered by your foreignWindow is larger than the buffer size coming from the camera.This would result in raw data not being cleared off the extra space with unpredictable graphical results.
Could you validate the width/height/position of your feed match those of your foreign window?
This thing happen on sample provide on github (HelloCamera) application. I did not provide any height/width to foreign window and i also want to know how to validate height/width of the feed?
With my HelloCamera pull from Github, I can run the application, however, the buttons ("Front Camera" "Rear Camera" "Stop Camera") never appear on the bottom of the screen in landscape as shown in your screenshot. Which version are you running and which changes have you made?
We didn't make any changes in the GitHub project. The only change we made is the change in orientation. We switched the orientation to landscape. We are using
If we decrease the width & height of foreign window it works fine.
Below metioned warnings continues to appear in the console:
### BAD_FRAME pid=211583121 at 5474074 ms -> t: 74 ms p1: 0 ms, r: 73 ms, p2: 1 ms, u: 0 ms
### BAD_FRAME pid=211583121 at 5474120 ms -> t: 31 ms p1: 0 ms, r: 6 ms, p2: 0 ms, u: 25 ms
### BAD_FRAME pid=211583121 at 5474153 ms -> t: 33 ms p1: 0 ms, r: 6 ms, p2: 0 ms, u: 27 ms
I have made the changes to the bar-descriptor file to force the app into landscape mode:
<initialWindow> <systemChrome>none</systemChrome> <transparent>false</transparent> <aspectRatio>landscape</aspectRatio> </initialWindow>
But it renders properly for me (the odd looking stripe nad white space on your screenshot are completely black in my case).
Have you made any other changes? I understand your device is updated, but is your IDE updated with the most recent SDK for .545?
I updated IDE with 545 and device also. I did not make any changes on that. 10.0.4 OS dev alpha device foreign window looks in full window but on 10.0.6 it displays strip.
have you cleaned and rebuilt your project? Is anyone else experiencing this?
I am not sure what could be the problem here - I would encourage you to log an Issue:
Ya i cleaned and rebuilt the project so many times. but same result. HelloCamera i pull from github and run it on 10.0.6 and it display only on half of the screen when we lock its orientation on landscape. HelloCamera app run perfectly fine on portrait. Only problem occurs when we run the app on landscape.

IT'S BEEN 25 years since Susan Rosenberg was arrested in Cherry Hill on a chilly November night as she unloaded 740 pounds of explosives into a U-Haul storage unit.
Rosenberg's 1984 capture by Cherry Hill police marked the culmination of her long journey from student anti-war protester to radical fugitive disguised with an ill-fitting wig.
Sentenced to 58 years in prison, she received the longest sentence ever given at the time for possession of explosives and weapons.
In a new memoir, titled "An American Radical, A Political Prisoner in My Own Country," Rosenberg - who served 16 years before President Bill Clinton commuted her sentence in 2001 - details her life behind bars at a series of grim maximum-security prisons and isolation units.

|Yes; and America is part of that ideal
Why is it wrong to support America"s very strong (but far from perfect) contribution to that in the last 2 and a half centuries?
You don"t need to celebrate it, and there is nothing wromg with other countries celebrating their contribution to it.
Just because, on the fourth of July, American"s choose to celebrate their contributions to the fight for liberty doesn"t mean that many of us are ignorant of the fights other people have had both before and after 1776.
Much like I am an alum of Michigan and I choose to celebrate the excellence of Michigan football - that does not mean that I am unaware that others have made huge contributions to American football.
I am an American and while I realize that my counrty often fails to live up to its ideals, I will continue to celebrate that over its 240 year history, many people have fought for those ideals in many different ways and I hope that more continue to do so for the next 240 and beyond.

|The battle for the american ideal
Did not end with the american revolution and was not solely fought by those who risked their lives at that time. Further, just because you are a decendent of a patriot, that does not automatically infer patriatosism on you.
Whether it be soldiers, members of the peace corp, firefighters, steelworkers, those who fought for woman"s sufferage, those who fought and continue to fight for civil rights, teachers, public servants who provide services like roads and people from many other vocations, there are many people who understanably want to reflect on the ideals of America, the opportunities America has given their family and friends and hopefully take at least a moment to reflect on what they can do to help the US further live up to those ideals.
At it"s birth, the US was far from living up to the ideal of all men being created equal, but to mix metaphors and historic periods, July 4th, 1776 was one small step for the US, but one huge step for humanity. The ideals that those brave one third stood up for are the foundation of our country but it is only because people have fought to defend and build upon those ideals that America truly became great.
You should not have to be able to trace your lineage back to somone who fought for those ideals in 1776 to be able to value, celebrate and hopefully help build upon them today.

|It is however also ironic
In that most of us have ancestors who are not from America and many of us can celebrate how great it is to be an American while still taking pride in the non-American part of our heritage.
And further because many on here celebrate Harbaugh (myself included) who embodies so many of America"s best qualities (hard work, risk taking, ingenuity, competive spirit) but manages to do so without seeming to feel the need to indiscriminately tear other people down.
Go blue and go USA.

|Thanks and some thoughts
While there are times I can get on my high horse and be a bit of an ass, I generally strove pretty hard not to do that in this thread. There has been lots of good far-ranging discussion in this thread and I was trying to constructively contribute to it (you can search my comments in this thread and see that I failed on the not be an ass at least once - that may be what earned me some of the down votes).
To the substance. There are very legitimate reasons that many players that are invested in the status quo and resistant to change. For instance, there is a large group of people in industry and government who understandably treat electric reliability as job 1. For those people, they know how to generally maintain reliability, under a system of large centralized fossil and nuclear plants, renewables create new challengess. For this reason they may be over conservative in ways that slow down the pace of change.
Similarly, many companies have invested billions of dollars in the current model and see more loss than gain in changes to that model.
A third example revolves around the fact that an evolving model for power generation/distribution/regulation asks challenging policy questions. We can see this in many states that are debating the rules for residential/commercial solar. Should those owners be allowed to sell excess electricity back to the griid, if so, how much? How should these people pay their fair share to maintain the broader grid? Typically this is at least partly done through charges based on electricity use. Those payments greatly decrease as they use less electricity even though the grid may still be providing tremendous benefit to them, both to provide power when the sun isn't shining and to sell their electricity.
Ironically, Musk, through his relationship with Solar City, and Tesla's involvement in grid and home storage is pushing these discussions just as he is pushing bigger picture policy discussions in the vehicle sector.

|Ironically yesterday California announced reliability concerns
Leaks at a natual gas storage facility are driving concerns about natural gas availability this summer.
With regards to the bigger question, in general, low natual gas prices and low renewable prices are leading to increases in capacity from those sources even as coal unots retire. Our growing ability to manage electric load is also helping. Further, EVs are a potential mechanism to help manage this load. At a minimum, charging rates can be varied to adjust to minute to minute load changes, but they could also potentially be used to incrrase supply by draining batteries. I"ve always wondered about the feasibility of this even though many suggest it. It seems unclear that car owners would be excited about extra charging/re-charging cycles that could reduce battery life for charging.

|Isn:t the road tax the equivalent of a gas tax?
Isn"t the basic idea that there is a cost to maintaing roads amd it has to be paid for somehow? Traditionally that cost has been at least partially paid by gas taxes. If large numbers of people move to EVs, that source will dwindle, thus a fee on EVs that obvious;y also use roads offsets this loss? While one can debate the merits of using gas taxes to finance roads, if you do go down this route, shouldn"t there be a mechanism by which EV drivers also pay their share?

|Sorry for being so pissy
And I appreciate that you went back and checked your facts.
While I know it is common practice on the internet, confidently asserting a "fact", when it is so far from being grounded in reality is one of the reasons I think we have so much trouble finding common ground.
If electric transmission losses were closer to 50% as you stated, if coal were the primary source used to generate electricity (Or the cheapest source to generate electricity), if renewables were significantly more costly (and their prices were not going down faster than any other source of electricity), the environmental case for EV"s would be much weaker. I know you haven"t made all of these assertions but others here have.
These misperceptions are all objectively, demonstartably false. When you look at the actual facts, the environmental case for EVs is quite clear. Note that these factors just get into the comparison of total fossil use from EVs vs fossil-fuel cars, they don"t even consider the benefits of moving pollution away from the ground level in more densely populated areas where more people actually breathe.
There is no teason that most people would actually have such facts floating around their brains (I certainly wouldn"t if I wasn"t an engineer who has spent over 20 years doing technology work in the power sector), but it doesn't seem like it should to be asking to much to expect that people who are going to assert a fact in an argumentt might want to check it first rather than just relying on things they heard somewhere.

|Do you always argue by just making shit up?

|Renewables are a key part of the future
In all three of those areas
1. In the US - we have an aging coal and nuclear fleet that is going to need to be replaced with something - while it won"t meet all the load, wind and solar are increasingly competive and are likely to play a big part
2. In Africa - where there is limited infrastructure, distributed renewables make even more sense
3. In Asia demand for cleaner air is competing for demand for more energy so, with the falling cost of renewables, it is likely that they will play a key role
While environmental concerns drive some renewable use, the pure business case continues to get better and better, prices continue to drop and performance continues to improve

|To carry it even further
The other renewables and natural gas are growing year on year while coal continues to drop. It is unlikely costs for natural gas generation will decline further while most projectiins have the cost of solar and wind continuing to drop.

|Renewables are the largest growing segment of the power sector
Last year we built more new wind in the US than any other type of power generation. As we see continued advancement in energy management (both storage and the ability to move load) projections for how much we can depend on intermitent sources of electricity like wind and solar. When you combine that with non-intermittant renewable resources like hydro, geothermal, bio-mass and opportunities to use waste heat (e.g. Cogeneration) from industrial sources, the need for multibillion dollar centralized electricity only coal and nuclear plants becomes smaller and smaller.

Last year 1/3 of US power came from coal, 1/3 from natural gas and 1/3 from nuclear or renewable.

To the extent that market forces are an agenda, I guess coal is being driven out of business by an agenda, but I think it is much more a case of aging coal plants struggling to compete with newer technologies.

But all I see is someone making incredibly broad generalizations about politics on a sports blog - not sure how that is improving things. Further, the person I am responding to has called all government "parasites" that does not really suggest someone in the construcive, "how do we fix things" mode.
Suggesting that all things government are a total disaster seems to ignore the fact that the public-private partnership in the US has done some amazing things and that if you want to try to change things a slightly more nuanced view looking at where things work and don"t might be useful.
Making government work is really hard. Lots of people are coming from lots of different viewpoints and interests. Trying to find workable solutions that satisfy those often competing interests is hard work that is often failed at, that doesn't mean we should just call it a disaster and give up.
By the way - red herrings are widely accepted as "shitty logic" - I"ve re-read my post multiple times and tried to figure out where I said - we should just shut our mouths and not try to improve things.

In my main activity i call setContentView in the onCreate. Then in onResume I start a service, if it is the first time into the service it creates an alarm and stops. I expected the layout to appear when setContentView is called but stepping through the debugger indicates that it isnt appearing until the service returns.
Should it display as soon as setContentView is called?
It seems that onWindowFocusChanged is not called at the start of the first Application (MAIN/LAUNCHER). By debugging it seems that the following happens:- MAIN onCreate - onStart - onResume (this where the service is started SERVICE class - onStart - service returns MAIN -onResume - onWindowsFocusChanged (the screen appears for the first time)
The diagrams I have seen say the activity is visbile from onStart onwards but that does not appear to be the case with the first activity. Is there any way to force the screen into view at the opening?

Loss of Lives in Clinical Trials...
Capitol Hill Critics Second-Guess Agencies Using...
Researchers Now Have a Myriad of...
Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Acorda Therapeutics received approval to market Ampyra™ in the U.S. to improve walking in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). In clinical trials this oral treatment reportedly demonstrated efficacy in people with all four major types of MS.
The approval, reported late Friday, sent Acorda's stock up to $28.12 by the end of trading last week. This marked a six-month high for the firm.
The FDA sanctioned Ampyra with a risk evaluation and mitigation strategy (REMS) program comprising a medication guide and communication plan. The goals of the communication plan are to inform patients about the serious risks associated with use of higher than recommended doses, including seizures.
Acorda expects the drug to be commercially available in the U.S. in March. It has seven years of market exclusivity under FDA's orphan drug status. The company plans to double its field-based sales professionals to approximately 100 in time for the drug launch.
Under Acorda's license and supply agreement with Elan Pharma, Ampyra will be manufactured by Elan Drug Technologies using one of its oral, controlled-release technologies, the MXDAS™ (matriX drug absorption system). Biogen Idec owns ex-U.S. marketing rights.
Ampyra, which was previously referred to as Fampridine-SR, is an extended-release formulation of dalfampridine (4-aminopyridine, 4-AP). It is administered as a 10 mg tablet twice daily, approximately 12 hours apart, alone or with existing MS therapies including immunomodulators.
"The approval of Ampyra marks an important milestone for the many people with MS who suffer walking impairment," remarks Ron Cohen, M.D., president and CEO of Acorda Therapeutics. "Difficulty walking is often cited by those with MS as one of the most pervasive and challenging aspects of their disease."
The primary measure of efficacy in two Phase III MS trials evaluating Ampyra was walking speed (in feet per second). A responder was defined as a patient who showed faster walking speed for at least three visits out of a possible four during the double-blind period than the maximum speed achieved in the five nondoubleblind, no-treatment visits.
Among patients taking Ampyra, 34.8% in trial 1 and 42.9% in trial 2 responded compared to 8.3% and 9.3% of patients taking placebo in trial 1 and 2, respectively. The increased response rate was observed across all four major types of MS. A significantly greater proportion of patients taking the drug increased their walking speed by at least 10%, 20%, or 30% from baseline compared to placebo.

An unusual feature of the truck's design is the aluminum alloy radiator—which is behind the engine instead of in front of it.
This TA series McCormick-Deering tractor was built by International Harvester in the early 1930s. The cab is shaped like one from an old locomotive.
This is old but I can't tell when it is from – maybe the 1930s or 40s. At some point the owner bolted a perforated steel plate over the radiator to protect it from damage. Many of the machines at the museum were similarly equipped, which suggests how hard logging could be on equipment.

Yeshivat Chovevei Torah
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (November 2015) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Yeshivat Chovevei Torah Rabbinical School (YCT) is an Orthodox yeshiva,[1] founded in 1999 by Rabbi Avi Weiss.
Currently located in the Riverdale section of the Bronx, New York, it seeks to "recruit, professionally train, and place rabbis" who will promote its founder's philosophy. Supporters state that YCT expresses commitment to and observance of Halakha (Jewish law) while maintaining an openness to modern culture, the broader Jewish community, and sensitive approaches to addressing contemporary issues.[2]
YCT's rabbinic education program combines a classic curriculum in Tanakh, Talmud, and the codes of Jewish law with a program in Pastoral counseling, leadership retreats, and education in fund-raising and other realities of contemporary religious leadership.[3]
YCT ordained its first graduating class of rabbis in June 2004 and has continued to do so every June since. Its current Rosh HaYeshiva (head of school) is Rabbi Dov Linzer. Its current president is Rabbi Asher Lopatin.
In addition to its rabbinical studies program, the yeshiva offers a public Jewish educational program, in association with the Hebrew Institute of Riverdale, at its Riverdale campus in the Bronx, New York. YCT also runs a variety of events open to the entire Jewish community, including its annual yemei iyun ("study days") on Bible and Jewish Thought and a public lecture series.
In April 2006, YCT applied for accreditation with the Rabbinical Council of America, the major American association of Modern Orthodox rabbis, which would have made YCT graduates eligible for RCA membership.[4] YCT subsequently withdrew their application when it became apparent that the application would be denied.
At a May 2014 gala, one member of the Moetzes Gedolei HaTorah, Rabbi Yaakov Perlow, called Open Orthodoxy heretical.[5]
In the fall of 2015, the Agudath Israel of America denounced moves to ordain women, and went even further, declaring Yeshivat Chovevei Torah, Yeshivat Maharat, Open Orthodoxy, and other affiliated entities to be similar to other dissident movements throughout Jewish history in having rejected basic tenets of Judaism.[6][7][8]
The origins of Yeshiva Chovevei Torah go back to 1996, when Rabbis Avi Weiss and Saul Berman founded a program known as MeORoT (Modern Orthodox Rabbinic Training) which provided supplemental lectures on issues in Modern Orthodoxy to rabbinical students then enrolled in Yeshiva University. The fellowship at that time was co-sponsored by Yeshiva University, Edah and Weiss's synagogue, the Hebrew Institute of Riverdale. In the following year, 1997, Weiss added the Torat Miriam Fellowship to the MeORoT program, inviting women involved in Jewish Studies on the graduate level to participate in these lectures.[citation needed]
In September 1999, Weiss and Rabbi Dov Linzer launched Yeshivat Chovevei Torah as an undergraduate learning program primarily for students in Columbia University and Barnard College. The YCT University Program had Rabbi Linzer serving as its Rosh HaYeshiva and was housed at Congregation Ramath Orah, a Modern Orthodox congregation on 110th Street in Manhattan. The faculty consisted of three recent graduates of the Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary (RIETS) affiliated with Yeshiva University: Rabbi Dov Weiss, who also directed the program, Rabbi Barry Wimpfheimer, and Rabbi Ari Perl.[citation needed]
In January 2000, the leadership of the YCT university program, which consisted of Avi Weiss, Berman, Linzer and Dov Weiss decided to create a rabbinical school which would officially open in September 2000. In September 2000, the rabbinical school welcomed its first class of 7 students.
In January 2004, Yeshivat Chovevei Torah moved from its location in Ramath Orah to the Abraham Joshua Heschel High School on 60th Street and West End Avenue and then to the Kraft Center/Columbia Barnard Hillel on 115th Street in July 2005.[citation needed] After spending five full years at the Columbia Hillel, the school then left Manhattan in the summer of 2010, moving to the Hebrew Institute of Riverdale, where it is at present.
Controversies over YCT came to a head when in 2006 YCT applied for membership in the Rabbinical Council of America, the rabbinical body affiliated with the Orthodox Union, the largest North American Modern and Centrist Orthodox body. YCT subsequently withdrew their application when it became apparent that the application would be denied.[3]
Having reportedly ordained 27 rabbis as of June 2006, the count nearly doubled by June 2009 to 54,[9] who, not being eligible for RCA membership, can join The Rabbinic Fellowship, an organization co-founded in 2008 by Rabbis Avi Weiss and Marc Angel.[10]
Faculty and administration[edit]
YCT's faculty is headed by Rabbi Dov Linzer, the Rosh HaYeshiva. Other faculty members include Rabbi Ysoscher Katz, Rabbi Nathaniel Helfgot, Rabbi Chaim Marder, Miriam Schacter, Rabbanit Devorah Zlochower and Dr. Michelle Friedman.[11] On 21 October 2007, Linzer was installed as the new dean of Yeshivat Chovevei Torah, taking over from Weiss. Rabbi Dov Lerea is the current Dean.
Curriculum and pastoral counseling program[edit]
Like classical Orthodox Rabbinic ordination programs, YCT's curriculum has a strong focus on Talmud and Halakha...[3] According to[specify], it has particular emphasis on the areas of Sabbath observance, dietary laws, laws of family life, and mourning.[citation needed] YCT's curriculum is also supplemented by a strong focus in Bible and Jewish thought. YCT states that the classical approaches to subject matters are complemented with academic and innovative methodologies. Their stated goal is to create knowledgeable, broadminded and critical-thinking Torah scholars, halakhic decisors and spiritual leaders.[citation needed]
One of the more innovative areas of YCT's curriculum is an unprecedented emphasis on pastoral care and professional development. Whereas it is common in other rabbinical schools to offer a semester or a year of pastoral counseling courses, YCT's program spans the entire four year curriculum. The pastoral counseling program is taught by leading psychiatric professionals, and includes formal classroom instruction, role-playing, clinical experience and mentored field work. The program places particular emphasis is placed on topics that rabbis regularly encounter: religious doubt and personal change; rites of passage; adolescence; substance abuse; marital and family problems; sexual function and dysfunction; homosexuality; domestic violence; loss, tragedy and bereavement; and response to catastrophe.[3]
The first-year courses are organized around basic principles of counseling. The second-year courses follow the life cycle, giving an overview of normal development as well as addressing potential difficulties. In their third and fourth years, students take seminars in chaplaincy, marital and family therapy, and psychology and religion. Fieldwork with direct clinical supervision is an essential part of the curriculum. In their third and fourth years, students rotate through an intensive chaplaincy program and meet regularly with senior clinicians to discuss pastoral issues that arise during their internships.[citation needed]
One of the other hallmarks of the YCT pastoral counseling program is the introduction of the process group. A common feature of graduate psychology programs, a process group consists of the students from a given class year who meet weekly with a mental health professional throughout the full four years of the program. In this completely confidential setting, students are free to explore issues of faith, authority, training, personal situation, etc.[3]
Student body and recruitment[edit]
A 2007 YU Commentator article [12] reported YCT's enrollment to be 43 full-time students.
Yeshiva University's student newspaper, The Commentator, reported that many young men who previously would have considered YU's rabbinical school are now attending YCT. The Commentator reported that this was a result of an "aggressive marketing campaign".[13]
Alumni placement[edit]
The first rabbi was ordained in 2003.[14] A 2008 story reported 43 YCT graduates.[15]
As of June 2009, YCT had reportedly placed 47 Rabbis in rabbinic positions throughout the United States, Canada, Israel and Europe. YCT's alumni are serving in 21 synagogues, 7 college campuses, 14 day schools in addition to 6 other Jewish communal organizations.[16][17]
Currently there are 95 graduates of YCT and there will be 108 expected graduates by June 2016.
Absorption of EDAH functions[edit]
In July 2006, YCT officials announced that they would absorb some of the personnel and functions of the Modern Orthodox advocacy organization EDAH, which had announced its closure and became defunct.[18] YCT also announced its assumption of EDAH's journal, website, and audio-visual library. YCT will absorb EDAH's current director, Rabbi Saul Berman, its journal, website, and audio-visual library.[19]
Yeshivat Chovevei Torah does not admit female students.[20][21]
Role of women in Judaism[edit]
Yeshivat Chovevei Torah, (Yeshivat Maharat notwithstanding), accepts only male candidates for ordination. However, YCT, unlike a number of rabbis and institutions within Orthodox Judaism, has expressed an openness to the possibility of expanded roles for women in ritual life. Founder Avi Weiss explained:
"Yeshivat Chovevei Torah Rabbinical School, as an Orthodox institution, requires that its students daven only in synagogues with mechitzot [partitions for the separation of men and women]. The phenomenon of women receiving aliyot in a mechitza minyan is currently being debated on both a halachic and communal level within the Modern Orthodox community. YCT Rabbinical School does not currently take a position on this issue." [22]
In June 2009, Weiss created the title MaHaRaT for Sara Hurwitz. He wished he could have called her a rabbi, stating "She can do 95 percent of what other rabbis do".[23] She was later titled "Rabba", a feminine version of the word "rabbi", despite female rabbis in other movements being called "rabbi". This led to complaints from the RCA, which led to Weiss stating he would not name future graduates as "rabba". Weiss subsequently resigned from the RCA.[24] However, in 2015 Yaffa Epstein was ordained as Rabba by the Yeshivat Maharat, which Weiss founded.[25] Also in 2015, Lila Kagedan was ordained as Rabbi by that same organization, making her their first graduate to take the title Rabbi.[26]
Many other Orthodox groups have criticized YCT for theological positions they believe are inconsistent with traditional values. The Modern Orthodox Rabbinical Council of America does not accept the school's ordination as valid for membership.[27] In the fall of 2015, the Agudath Israel of America denounced moves to ordain women, and went even further, declaring Yeshivat Chovevei Torah, Yeshivat Maharat, Open Orthodoxy, and other affiliated entities to be similar to other dissident movements throughout Jewish history in having rejected basic tenets of Judaism.[6][7][8]
