Merge with Program state?[edit]
|The content of Program state was merged into State (computer science) on 31 August 2012 . That page now redirects here. For the contribution history and old versions of the redirected page, please see its history; for the discussion at that location, see its talk page.
- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
- The result was merge Program state into this article. -- ChetvornoTALK 08:53, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
Merge with the Program state article? Thoughts? 184.108.40.206 (talk) 09:49, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
- I propose to merge State (computer science) and Program state. The reason is that both articles fail to differentiated themselves from each other.
- In case you see good reasons to keep the articles separate, then please
- discuss these reasons here,
- modify both articles in such a way that precise and different definitions are given,
- modify both articles in such a way that both articles explicitly mention each other and show the difference between both terms,
- remove the merge templates from both articles.
- Thanks, --Abdull (talk) 10:58, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
- Agree with the merge proposal. --188.8.131.52 (talk) 17:10, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
- Support the merge proposal. I am hopeful that the combined article will be of higher quality than either of the source articles. --Kvng (talk) 15:19, 23 September 2010 (UTC)
- DO NOT Support the merge proposal. There are small but distinct differences, as indicated in the State, last paragraph. States have a much wider application that just n the context of Program States. E.g. information systems or communication protocols also have states. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.108.40.206 (talk) 10:19, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
- Comment The Program state article has potential to evolve into a separate article if it is expanded to explain how state is implemented in the virtual machines of programming languages, and how programs make use of it. In its current form, I Support the merge with Program state as a section of the more general State (computer science). Diego Moya (talk) 12:40, 26 December 2010 (UTC)
- Support the merge proposal. This "State( computer science )" article is referenced from many articles, including the comprehensive article at Finite-state machine, and from several article under Web services/SOA/RESTful web services. As such it serves a role as a generalized source of a description of "state" as used in the domain of computer science. As an example, "program state" would be a simple way to describe what state is in this domain. However, a more careful description of program state seems likely to run into problems describing "programs", which then starts repeating stuff from Finite-state machine. I think the current article on program state is not distinct enough to warrent a separate article, and such an article is likely to be only a summary of other articles, which also probably belongs here. If I'm wrong and someone cares enough to write a large and detailed subsection, it can always be split back out. Srjefferys (talk) 21:24, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
- As each program state is a state, but each state is not necessarily a program state, I am against a merge. A final state machine has also states, but is not necessarily part of a program. Sae1962 (talk) 15:16, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
- No, we're not saying they are the same thing. There are 2 kinds of "states" in computer science: Program state and sequential circuit state, which should both be covered in this article, State (computer science). I support merging Program state into this article. --ChetvornoTALK 13:50, 25 August 2012 (UTC)
- It seems to me that the objections raised by 18.104.22.168 and Sae1962 above have been addressed in the current condition of the State (computer science) article. Unless anyone has any further objections I am going to perform the merger. --ChetvornoTALK 11:27, 28 August 2012 (UTC)
- Support the merge proposal, though I believe State (computer science) to be the more general and hope Program state is merged into it and not the other way around. 126.96.36.199 (talk) 14:31, 28 August 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, merge Program state into State (computer science) --ChetvornoTALK 14:57, 29 August 2012 (UTC)
- The above discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.
Broaden the definition[edit]
The present definition of 'state' was taken from a book on the design of digital systems. It is too narrow: it mostly applies when designing systems, hardly when studying existing ones, and it is limited to particular kinds of systems. The term 'state' is applied much more broadly, even in computer science. Rp (talk) 07:33, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
Improve the explanation?[edit]
I want to know about running state and waiting state ,such type of states.
I want to know what the virtues of stateless systems may be, as they are NOT obvious. They appear to be necessitated (?) by asynchronous systems, which begs the question "What are the merits of asynchronous communication"? Maximizing vastly redundant data transmission would appear to be one possible goal, admirably achieved. Until the web, all compuiter systems were stateful (and useful). The web is neither. Can anyone explain why the web is such a "dumb" interface? Was the intention to emulate "dumbest terminal imaginable" functionality, as this is what has occurred? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 18.104.22.168 (talk) 18:32, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
- I agree that it would be appropriate to answer these questions in this article:
- The discussion of simple states (e.g. 'on' vs. 'off', 'running' vs. 'waiting' vs. 'inactive', etc.) can be used to introduce the subject or give an example. The definition of state given now makes technical sense but doesn't really reflect how we usually think of state, and there is a technical reason for that.
- Stateful vs. stateless system descriptions: the point of statelessness is not to eliminate state from the system, but to make the system's *behavior* (interaction with its environment) independent from *hidden* state: no side effects, any information that may influence the outcome of an operation must be specified explicitly as input, and any effect must be explicit output. This makes systems easier to design and test, even more so when there is concurrency. However, this article may not be the most suitable one for discussing this at length. Rp (talk) 17:02, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, there is also the article Stateless protocol which might be appropriate for some of it. I don't mind the additions, but the very important basic concept of state as the stored data set available to a program or logic circuit needs to be clear as the primary definition for nontechnical readers. --ChetvornoTALK 17:23, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

Convenient device,
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Generic Home Travel Charger for Sandisk Sansa Clip Plus - Non-Retail Packaging - Black (Wireless Phone Accessory)
Used the charger for the first time yesterday for my Sansa Clip (which I LOVE!!!). Battery was getting low but not totally out. Took about 3 hours to fully charge. Bought the charger in case my computer crashes. Good item for the price. Arrived (as usual with Amazon) within a few days.

Kentucky taxes generated $49 million in surplus revenues over what was anticipated in the state budget for the fiscal year that ended at midnight June 30.
The Office of State Budget Director reported Monday that revenues to the state's General Fund grew for the sixth consecutive fiscal year in 2015-16 and topped $10 billion for the first time.
Revenues to the General Fund grew by 3.7 percent over the previous fiscal year. That produced the $49 million surplus, because only 3.2 percent growth was anticipated in the state budget.
Spencer County GOP meeting
The Spencer County GOP will hold their monthly meeting on Thursday, July 14 at the Farm Bureau meeting room. Dinner starts at 6:30 p.m. and the meeting starts at 7 p.m.
Free sports physicals
On Saturday, July 16, free sports physicals will be available at Spencer County Physical Therapy from 9 a.m. - noon. For more information, call Spencer County High School at 477-3255.
Laura Jones, a 2011 graduate of Spencer County High School, was crowned Miss Kentucky Saturday night in Lexington.
Jones, also a graduate of Kentucky Christian University, is the daughter of Tom and Pamela Jones of Spencer County.
Jones will travel to Atlantic City, New Jersey in September to compete for the title of Miss America. We hope to have a more in-depth future on Jones in an upcoming edition.
The battle over the county's budget ended with a 4-2 vote of approval in an emergency meeting of the Spencer County Fiscal Court Thursday, but the conflict on the court appears to be nowhere near subsiding.
Just hours before the budget deadline, Magistrate Hobert Judd reluctantly agreed to approve the second reading of the county's budget, breaking a 3-3 deadlock that had mired the court for more than two weeks.
City hosting strategic plan meeting
The third strategic planning meeting for the city of Taylorsville will be held on Tuesday, July 12 at 6 p.m. at the extension office. At this meeting, consultants from the Kentucky League of Cities who have been working with residents to establish a plan for Taylorsville's future, will present more details.
Sudden torrential rains soaked participants and spectators Monday at the Mt. Eden Fourth of July Parade, but it didn't put a complete damper on the day. As the parade made it's way along the main road in town, the floats and riders stayed dry. However, as the parade neared it's end at the Mt. Eden Ruritan Club building, the skies opened up and drenched everyone. Despite the rain, there were still plenty of smiles and memories made.
County responders and volunteers rushed to contain a sewage leak into Taylorsville Lake Saturday, an event that emphasizes the importance of a quick resolution to the ownership issue at Edgewater Resorts.
A sewage treatment pump located near the resort, that also serves the Taylorsville Lake State Park Campground, as well as the resort and marina, failed, creating an overflow that began leaking into the lake at the foot of a hill below Edgewater.
Citizens have weighed in, ideas have been tossed around, and now the community awaits the final plan that will be presented by consultants with the Kentucky League of Cities as part of the City of Taylorsville's Strategic Planning iniative.

Katz's (Princess Baby) nursery patchwork quilt approach is a far cry from the Jean Charlot illustrations originally paired with Brown's (Goodnight Moon) text back in 1952 (the book was created as a companion to the Caldecott Honor title A Child's Good Night Book). "A squirrel pops out of his hole in the tree. Who woke me up? The sun! The sun is up!" announces a typical spread. Katz turns on the twee faucet: she shows a cutest-ever baby playing peek-a-boo with a blanket while birdies, bunnies and a dozing horsey (with a silver-white mane) array themselves about the smiling squirrel's tree. Katz's legions of fans will certainly rejoice to see her signature kewpie doll-like characters cavorting to the words of the grande dame. But those who love Brown for her honesty and directness may just shake their heads. Ages 4-8. (Jan.)Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Editorial Reviews
Four children wake up with the sun shining brightly into their window. But before they leave their beds, the birds, horses, squirrels, and other creatures have already started their day. In this newly illustrated edition, originally published in 1952 (HarperCollins), Katz has reinterpreted the text in her warm and rounded style. Babies, animals, and even the bumblebees have circular faces with small features matching the simplicity of the narrative. Brightly colored patterns and use of collage add interest to each page. This book has been popular over the years. Refresh collections as needed.-Blair Christolon, Prince William Public Library System, Manassas, VA

Bartholomew Joins Jenner & Block: Business of Law
Litigator and former U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission senior trial counsel Christian R. Bartholomew joined Jenner & Block LLP as a partner in Washington and a member of the securities litigation and enforcement practice.
Bartholomew previously worked at Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP as a partner in the securities litigation practice and leader of its SEC enforcement practice in Washington and Miami, the firm said.
He has more than 20 years of experience in securities enforcement and resolving securities investigations by the SEC, Justice Department, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority and others.
"With the arrival of Christian, we strengthen our commitment to ensuring that our D.C. office is a destination for handling large, multi-regulator securities investigations and related class actions," Susan C. Levy, Jenner & Block's managing partner, said in a statement.
Former Obama Administration Liaison Gray Rejoins O'Melveny
Litigator Danielle Gray, who most recently worked as President Barack Obama's chief liaison to his cabinet, is rejoining O'Melveny & Myers LLP as a partner in the financial services practice group in New York and Washington. She will also be involved in the firm's appellate and white-collar and corporate investigations practices.
Gray was responsible for policy and communications coordination among cabinet-level agencies and worked closely with the executive branch on congressional investigations and the promulgation of regulations, the firm said.
"Her unique perspective on the inner workings of the government and record for sound strategic guidance will enhance the service we provide clients dealing with an increasingly challenging regulatory environment," Bradley J. Butwin, the chairman of O'Melveny, said in a statement.
WilmerHale Hires Former FBI Chief of Staff Aaron Zebley
Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale & Dorr LLP said Aaron Zebley, former chief of staff to Robert S. Mueller III, the ex-director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, is joining the firm in Washington.
Zebley was most recently senior counselor in the National Security Division of the Justice Department. Prior to his position with Mueller, Zebley was a special agent of the FBI in the Counterterrorism Division for seven years.
Gibson Dunn Gets New York Appellate Lawyer Halligan
Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP said Caitlin Halligan, the former general counsel in the Manhattan district attorney's office, is joining as a partner in New York. She will focus on appellate law, the firm said in a statement.
"We have tremendous depth in our appellate group, which saw five lawyers argue seven cases during the U.S. Supreme Court's 2013 term," said Ken Doran, chairman and managing partner of Gibson Dunn. "Caitlin is an exceptionally accomplished appellate litigator with a high profile and national reputation who will add even more depth."
Chevron Allowed to Pursue Fraud Claims Against Patton Boggs
Chevron Corp. may sue Patton Boggs LLP over its involvement in a multibillion-dollar pollution case against the energy company in Ecuador, a federal judge ruled. The decision followed the judge's findings last month that a $9.5 billion award issued in Ecuador was procured by fraud.
In U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan's ruling yesterday in Manhattan, he granted Chevron's request to counter-sue in a case Patton Boggs brought to lift a court order barring the firm from collecting on the Ecuador judgment. The firm also sought in the case to obtain $21.8 million posted by the company as a bond.
In court papers in June, Patton Boggs said Chevron's effort to file those claims was "a bad-faith, legally-futile, and vexatious stratagem designed to divert the resources" of the firm and pressure it to "abandon its clients as a result of unfavorable press."
Natalie V. Gewargis, a spokeswoman for Patton Boggs, said she couldn't immediately comment on the ruling.

Christie Lawyer Turns Aside Lawmakers' Transcript Request
A lawyer for New Jersey Governor Chris Christie's office set up a showdown with a state legislative committee by turning aside a call to produce transcripts of interviews of more than 70 witnesses in an internal probe of the George Washington Bridge lane closings.
The report, by the law firm Gibson Dunn & Crutcher LLP, concluded on March 27 that Christie had no advance knowledge of a plot by an ex-aide, Bridget Anne Kelly, and a former ally, David Wildstein, to create traffic jams near the bridge. Those tie-ups were intended to punish the mayor of Fort Lee, New Jersey, for unknown ulterior reasons, Gibson Dunn said.
Those conclusions drew sharp criticism from state Senator Loretta Weinberg and Assemblyman John Wisniewski, who lead a panel investigating the tie-ups even as U.S. prosecutors probe for any crimes. The lawmakers want to see the interview notes and other documents Gibson Dunn used to produce its report. Gibson Dunn attorney Randy Mastro yesterday declined the request, which the committee hasn't formally made yet.
"The Governor's Office is fully cooperating with the U.S. Attorney Office's investigation, and in that regard, has not publicly released accounts of interviews conducted in connection with the Gibson Dunn investigation," Mastro said in a statement released by Christie's office.

im in need of some major help....i need to create a payment system for a pretend electric company. i have designd this system using classes of:
customer (parentclass) - billed customer (subclass), prepaid customer (subclass)
payment class (parent class) - card class (subclass) bill class (subclass)

She has kind of a rounder belly, but her legs and arms aren't humongous or anything, she's just kinda soft, meaning she has a lot more fat than muscle and bone percentage wise. That is why she looks chubby, but she isn't actually big. I used to be a bit soft until i joined girl's swim team in junior high. But I know in Asian culture, exercise isn't exactly very important, grades are usually number one in priorities. That's why it would be hard to look like we have no fat unless we were skinny …

"Difficulty for the person to carry out household and social activities" probably covers a fair portion of the people who visit this site. And there are certainly those who would claim that anyone taking part in otaku culture must have one or more mental disabilities. So, what happens once you are deemed to be harmful to society?
- "Euthanasia" Stabber Slaughters 19 Patients:
I'm pretty sure most of those people weren't contributing to overpopulation. If overpopulation is the concern, the more logical solution would be to go after people having lots of kids, not the other way around. The costs of taking care of the mentally disabled are likely minor compared to the costs of taking care people on government assistance who keep having kids they can't afford.

It doesn't sound like these people were "vegetables", they just had mental and physical disabilities. And you seem to imply that orphans and homeless people don't get any help, when they do. Just because their families may not have been willing or able to provide them with the level of assistance they needed, doesn't mean these people wanted to die. And what happens when someone decides that those who view content they deem to be objectionable must have a "mental illness". Will you be first in …

Wouldn't stay there again!
Very nice. Staff was helpful and friendly. Good location.
Staff was very friendly and helpful. Hotel is located on a quiet street. Rooms are to small ,but very clean. Overall good stay.
Staff was very helpful. Was a typically small European room. Could only sleep and dress in it. Bathroom shower was too small and slippery Roof top bar was fabulous and breakfast exceptional
4 night stay for vacation. The hotel was easy to find and within waking distance from the train station. It was about a 20min walk to many of the main attractions, and the metro and bus stops were close by. Check in was fast and easy, and the staff was very nice and helpful. The room was quiet and comfortable, with a typical European style. There was a small desk and chair in the room as well. A small thing that I liked was that there was a public fountain down the street from the hotel, so you could fill your water bottles in the morning on the way out and in the evening on the way back. One thing to note is that the airport shuttle service that they mention on hotels.com costs 50 euros. Overall, a very pleasant hotel at a reasonable price.

I have stayed at a number of the top hotels in Seoul; Intercontienental Coex, the plaza, the W, and the Banyan Tree - while all the aforementioned are good hotels the Shilla is on a different level.
This is an amazing hotel so far above the competition that it is unbelievable. Yes, it is the most expensive hotel I have ever stayed at but there is no delta from what you pay and what you get. The proportion of guests to staff is the first indication of what this place is all about. I would truly say that the proportion seems equal or favors the staff. Things just run well.
Pay the extra money and use the executive lounge. The best lounge I have experienced. Ever.
I am an Ice guy and I asked for a bucket of ice and I got a bucket of perfect globes of ice. Seriously, globes of ice balls. Holy smokes, that won me over. Also, this is the first public place, and hotel, in Seoul that is not stiflingly hot during fall/winter. You can make your room as cold as you want it,
I have stayed at the best hotels in the world and I am annoyingly picky. I cannot complain about this hotel at all. The Shilla is the best hotel in Seoul with out a doubt.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- The Shilla Seoul represents the best hotel in Korea, with contemporary design blending well with traditional patterns and style used back in the Shilla Dynasty. Next to the main building stands the former guesthouse that was once used to welcome special guests from around the world. The main building is replete with restaurants offering outstanding international cuisine, a shopping arcade featuring global brand goods, a pool, and a luxurious spa while in a separate building within the property lies a grand duty-free shop. ... more less

Cosma - Mk IV - reached over 30,000 meters and recovered!
Till today two humanoid robots have been entered space. The first one was the US-built robot Robonaut 2, delivered by STS-133 in February 2011 to the ISS (International Space Station). The second one was the Japan-built robot Kirobo, launched on the cargo-carrying rocket on August 2013 loaded with supplies for the crew of the International Space Station, along with a small robot meant as a companion for the Japanese astronaut Koichi Wakata.
While Robonaut 2 is quite dexterous and mostly tele operated but can't talk, Kirobo claims to be the first talking humanoid robot in space, but has much less degrees of freedom, comparable with a humanoid robot kit you can buy in corresponding shops. Cosma, as I named my robot, a maiden name, ancient Greek for Cosmos, could be the third humanoid robot entering space. This sounds like a day dream, but it's really feasible, especially because I might have access to an according carrying system - the eXSShot rocket, powered by sugar propellant, capable of breaking the Kármán line, defined as an altitude of 100 kilometres above the Earth's sea level, and commonly used to define the boundary between the Earth's atmosphere and outer space. The rocket is under development by the Sugar Shot to Space team, and it happens that I am a member of this team and also the main backer. The project is far away of being a success; we had many CATO's (Catastrophe At Take Off) in the past, and the rocket prototypes burning more money than fuel, but hey, at least I can do everything in my power making this an access some day.
Cosma is now not very dexterous. The current version has even no any kinematic degree of freedom. Cosma can talk well, but this isn't the point. The main goal of Cosma is to map its sensor data into physiological human conditions, something neither Robonaut 2 nor Kirobo can do. Once, physiological human conditions have been computed, simple mental human conditions can be derived.
The idea is to collect bio medical data of astronauts and flight data at a time t in a lookup table and compare the robot sensor data then with the lookup table data via min-max algorithm to find the best match.
Fig. 1 Abstract of RESULTS OF THE FIRST UNITED STATES MANNED ORBITAL SPACE FLIGHT. Blood pressure, body temperature, respiration and activity of the heart of astronaut John Glenn was measured during the flight. The sample showing physiological data at drogue parachute deployment.
I started to build this robot by populating the Arduino shield PCB I had designed for the previous Cosma prototype, leaving the voltage regulator, capacitors for the servos and pin headers for the servos, sound sensors and FSRs out, as I didn't want to use this actuators and sensors to make the robot as light weighted as possible and trim it especially for a weather balloon test flight. FSRs and sound sensors making not much sense, if the robot is hanging on a weather balloon. This might change if the robot is pressed into its seat in a rocket capsule, surrounded by a deafening sound during takeoff.
Following the KISS principle, I have not added a voltage monitor circuitry for the LiMH battery. Just a shutdown timer is used.
Fig. 2
The EMIC-2 TTS module is the only device which I didn't integrate into the shield. It can be plugged in if needed. It is normally only needed if a live audio down link is available. If not, generated text respectively the physiological and mental condition of the humanoid robot will be stored on the SD card and can be later readout in case the robot returned safely back to Earth.
The EMIC-2 module doesn't work properly with hardware serial. The problem is the hardware RX on the Arduino. It never receives the char ':' flawlessly, which indicates that the EMIC-2 isn't busy anymore, so I revised the PCB accordingly and changed the communication protocol to software serial. On the other hand, having the LS Y201 TTL camera on software serial too, it was blocking the communication of the EMIC-2 module. Fortunately the linksprite camera works on hardware serial as well without problems, so I re-wired TX of the camera to RX1 and RX of the camera to TX1 on the Arduino board/shield. More information can be found on that topic, reading the snap shot example comments of the adafruit library. The camera's serial data pins are 3.3V logic, so a voltage divider must be used on the camera's RX pin when connected to a 5V level MCU.
Fig. 3
The MPU 6050 (6 DOF accelerometer/gyroscope) in its QFN package is on a GY-521 breakout board. I soldered the breakout board via right angle male headers onto the shield. In order to make the MPU 6050 breakout board working, I removed the weak 2.2 kΩ SDA and SCL pullup resistors (I am using a BSS138 N-channel MOSFET based voltage level shifter with 10 kΩ pullup resistors on the 3.3V level SDA/SCL side) as well as the 4.7 kΩ pulldown resistor on AD0 and connected the AD0 pin directly to 3.3 V to set the I2C address to 0x69 (AD0 logic HIGH) instead of 0x68 (AD0 logic LOW), which is the default address of the RTC (DS1307) and cannot be changed.
Fig. 4
To give the robot a little bit more personality and let it not looking completely static, I integrated a red LED into the mouth section, which flashes randomly during speech and gives a nice effect.
Fig. 5
The mechanical construction is straightforward. I cut out three mounting plates from 1.5 mm aluminium sheet, one for the Arduino board, one for the battery and one for the cameras:
Fig. 6
I am using a special utility knife and a steel ruler as a guide to score the material and then just simply breaking the pieces off. To make the parts as light weighted as possible inner cut-outs were done by pre-drilling the pattern, removing the material and finishing it with a small flat file and sanding paper.
Fig. 7
The mounting plates were then bolted together, using nylon stand-offs.
Fig. 8
The complete robot including the battery weighs 311 g.
Fig. 9
To keep the robot warm and dry during its flight on the weather balloon, it will be simply packed into a plastic bag of according size with cut-outs for the camera and light sensor.
[8/25/2013] I decided to layout a new shield with integrated camera, TCS3200 color sensor and SMD LED for the mouth. This avoids long wiring between the camera/TCS3200 color sensor and the shield and reduces the depth and the weight of the robot. On the new shield will be only SMD components used. The schematic can be found in the attachment.

I furthermore designed a battery box on which the Arduino Mega is mounted.

[10/15/2013] After a lot of trouble with the Chinese customs and changing the express company a few times, COSMA finally reached US soil and will be launched on a weather balloon soon...
[2/10/2014] Cosma was launched this morning and reached over 30,000 meters! I just copy/paste the email my friend sent me today. More information will follow...
Fig. 22 COSMA in flight
[17/2/2013] COSMA is back after a trip to 102,000' and 7 days on the side of a Mojave Desert Mountain. I will publish the data and photos shortly. It seems COSMA was switched on way to early prior launch, so all the robot did was data logging while sitting for hours on the ground and waiting for lift-off due to its pre-programmed timer interrupt.

Great work Markus. I didn't
Great work Markus. I didn't realize how close you were to ACTUALLY getting Cosma into orbit. I wonder if there is a geiger counter small enough to have on board to measure radiation levels. If such a thing does exist I'm am sure it comes at a premium. Good luck on your quest. Very cool to see a pioneer doing his thing. :)
BTW. The more I look at Cosmas' head, the more it looks like a little dude where the screw holes are his eyes and he has goggle gear on top of his head. Like this:
Keep it up Markus. We're rootin for ya.
I was merely thinking about
I was merely thinking about humans getting sick from cosmic radiation and the fact that once they've been exposed to a set amount, they are forced to retire from space flight for health reasons. Cosmic radiation poisoning is also a major hurdle for manned missions into deep-space, such as a manned mission to Mars. That aside, I see what you mean by only carrying "human senses" onboard.
Ni-Mh batteries are too
Ni-Mh batteries are too heavy for this project I think. Ni-Mh batteries give less energy than Li-Ion or Li-Po. Your Arduino Mega consumes to much power. And it will be great to replace batteries to more technological ones.

Product Description
From the Manufacturer
Premium aluminum bi-fold design
You'll get jacked up about the Raider Aluminum Ramp. This lightweight ramp is approximately 7.4 feet in length, which makes loading and unloading a cycle or scooter super easy, and, because the ramp folds in half, it's easy to toss in the pickup bed to transport. The ramp's slightly curved arch prevents bottoming out.
The bi-fold design allows you to fold the 89" long by 11" wide ramp in half when not in use.
Includes one 59 in adjustable strap to secure the ramp
Cost-effective premium ramp
Aluminum ramps, like Raider's BCS-1006, are known for their versatility, durability and the fact they are lightweight and easy to use. Deluxe hinges and steel bolts are reinforced and welded for durable strength. Anti-slip wave rungs are placed at 3.15 inch for smooth loading and unloading. The corrosion-resistant ramp goes through strenuous strength testing after assembly. PVC-coated end plates protect your vehicle from damage.
- Deluxe hinges and hardware are reinforced and welded for durable strength
- Corrosion-resistant finish prevents rust
One ramp numerous options
This motorcycle ramp can handle a 750 pound single use weight capacity, perfect for a motorcycle or scooter. But it's not limited to only two-wheelers. Combine two ramps (sold separately) for a 1,500 pound tandem use weight capacity, which accommodates ATVs, UTVs and riding lawn mowers.

Bama bounces back; wins by 10
Published: Sunday, January 6, 2008 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, January 5, 2008 at 11:31 p.m.
TUSCALOOSA | University of Alabama womens basketball coach Stephany Smith said she was so frustrated by her teams effort, or lack thereof, in a loss to East Tennessee State on Thursday that she wasnt sure what kind of performance she would get in Saturdays game against Southeastern Louisiana.
The answer came in the form of a 61-51 win for the Crimson Tide over the Lady Lions, which improved Alabamas record to 7-8 and gives it a much-needed boost before heading into SEC play on Thursday against South Carolina.
I think the biggest thing tonight and the thing that I am most pleased with and relieved from is we stayed in the fight, Smith said. I was so frustrated three days ago because we might as well have been anywhere else other than running up and down Coleman Coliseum floor because we were non-participants.
We talked a lot about just staying in the fight and when something goes bad not getting it in your mind that all is lost.
Alabama fought its way through some self-made adversity early on when the Crimson Tide fell behind 12-4 in the first five minutes of the game.
Alabama got back into the game beginning with a Tierney Jenkins jumper that sparked a three minute 10-0 run to give the Tide a 14-12 lead and its first lead of the game.
A Talisha Chandler field goal with 3:27 remaining in first half gave UA a 29-22 advantage, but two quick Southeastern Louisiana layups and a free throw shrunk Alabamas halftime lead to just two at 29-27.
The Lady Lions played the Crimson Tide even in the second half and took a 50-48 lead with 6:39 remaining.
However Alabama closed the game on a 13-1 run, and held Southeastern Louisiana scoreless over the final 4:06.
Sophomore point guard Dedrea Magee scored a career high 16 points surpassing the 15 points she scored last season against Ole Miss. In 40 minutes of action she was 6 of 9 from the field, including three reverse layups, two 3-pointers and making both of her free throws.
As the teams primary point guard, Magee has often deferred to her teammates this season instead of looking for her own shot. She said she is just playing team basketball.
Im a point guard, I play my role, Magee said. Coach is always drilling in our head we got to know our role.
If youre open under the basket and you have a wide-open layup she wants you to take it. So if Im open Im going to take it.
In her second game back from injury, freshman Caitlin Hollifield matched her career high with 10 points. Playing out of position at guard due to Alabamas rash of injuries, Hollifield made her first career 3-pointer and added seven rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal.
Hollifield said Smith approached her at practice with the idea to help out and play guard.
Mostly all of my life Ive usually played post, but Im an undersized post and I usually work on my outside shot just in case I could step out, Hollifield said. Ive been working on it in practice and so thats what we did tonight.
Talisha Chandler had a double-double with 13 points and 11 rebounds. Camilla Blands added 11 points and four assists in 24 minutes of action.
The Crimson Tide defense held the Lady Lions leading scorer Kristy Carlin to just four points. Zevy Ivory scored 13 points and Bethany Sinclair scored 12.
Alabama will open SEC play hosting the South Caroline Gamecocks on Thursday at 6 p.m. before traveling to play Florida on Dec. 10.

Consider for a moment the bright lights of debaucherous Las Vegas, and the signs that bear them. To vacationers, the beaming bulbs signal good times ahead. But, among architects, the form of flashy commercial signage is a contentious subject.
In the discussion Signscape Architecture, architects and co-founders of Seattles Lead Pencil Studio Annie Han and Daniel Mihalyo talk with Jason Griffiths, an award-winning architect and professor. At Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art, the trio will converse about the implications of selling out art in this case architectural design to accommodate for-profit signage.
The dialogue occurs in conjunction with Extended Collapse, Han and Mihalyos architectural installation, which is on display at SMoCA through October 16.

text: Anastasia Tinted Brow Gel ($19.00) is an easy-to-use, multi-tasking product to keep your brows looking polished and in place throughout the day. It's available in three colors: Caramel (warm golden light brown), Espresso (rich dark brown), and Granite (grayish taupe). The one pictured above is the Caramel shade, which is a bit too light for my tastes, but at the same time, the formula is sheer so it does help make my brows look less severe and very natural. I recommend Espresso for those with dark black/brown brows like mine, though–it's a much better color match!Read Full Review

Why does the Windows key seem to be reversed with the Escape key? This seems to randomly happen, and rebooting reverts their functionality. What is happening that makes this happen, how can I prevent it from happening again, and how do I fix it when it does happen without rebooting?
I think "ctrl + esc" opens the menu. So, you probably have a problem with the "ctrl" button, or you have some sort of "sticky buttons" option enabled in the accessibility preferences.
I think your Ctrl key was pressed for some reason. Ctrl+Esc brings up start menu on Windows.
