What Your Feet Say About Your Heart: Peripheral Artery Disease 101
…often use the drugs advertised in the ads I mentioned earlier. Angioplasty or surgery is also sometimes necessary. But what I have found is that many patients who don't have major obstructions remain symptomatic after surgery. The reason is that they often have small vessel disease. So, I like to take…Read More

North Dakota, USA
Jun. 25, 1876
Little Big Horn Battle Site
Big Horn County
Montana, USA
Private, Indian Scouts, 7th US Cavalry. One of General Custer's favorite scouts, he was killed in action at the Battle of the Little Big Horn.
His father was a Hunkpapa Sioux and his mother a Ree Indian. When he was 14, his mother returned with him to her people, and he was raised there. In his early twenties, he carried the US mail from Fort Totten to Fort Stevenson. In 1868, he enlisted for 6 months in the Indian Scouts at Fort Stevenson. Soon after the establishment of Fort Abraham Lincoln, ND, in 1873, he volunteered to serve the 7th Cavalry as an Indian Scout, and participated in the 1873 Yellowstone Expedition, and the 1874 Black Hills Expedition. He was considered an excellent and reliable Scout, and was one of Custer's favorites. During the 1876 Sioux Campaign, he was assigned to Major Reno's Battalion, and during the valley fight, he was killed by a shot directly to his head, as the cavalry prepared to retreat from the valley. Pieces of his skull and brains were splattered on Major Reno at the time. His body was probably buried in the valley on 27 June 1876 by Colonel John Gibbon's men. He was survived by his wife, She Owl, and a son. Two gravestones exist: one in the Indian Scout Cemetery (near White Shield, ND) and another in Bell Cemetery (reinterment site No. 1)(in the Fort Berthold Reservation, North Dakota).

I liked especially the practical experience of the trainer. He's very skilled with the subjects of WIFI.
Student of CWNP training
Very skilled teacher who seems to have plenty of knowledge of the course material, as well as experience from reallife scenarios that support the course material. He managed to keep the long days interesting by having us participate actively in the slides and bringing the material in an energetic and enthousiastic manner.
Student of IINS training
Trainer adapted the course to our needs and objectives / from operator point of view + many practical examples. Good course!
Student of SIP training
The course runs over all the knowledge pretty fast, but due to my experience, I already knew some things about it. However, my knowledge is widely expanded due to the course, and will certainly help me with my further career.
Student of Cisco CCNA Bootcamp training
The explanation of the principles of optical communications and OTN/WDM were very beneficial for me.
Student of WDM&OTN training
Excellent course!
Student of Cisco DCUCI training
One2train, my compliments for organizing the IPv6 training! It was well prepared, the trainer was highly skilled and he did a great job explaining the content of the presentation
BT Benelux student of IPv6 training
De cursus was helder en er was voldoende aandacht voor toepassing van de stof. De cursusleider gaf duidelijke uitleg.
Cegeka student of CompTIA Cloud Essentials training
De cursusleider heeft sterke technologische en theoretische kennis gecombineerd met grote dosis experience; een perfecte combinatie om een WiFi cursus te geven.
Student of CWNA training
Cursusleider heeft een hoog kennisniveau en humor.
Students of MTA Windows training
Trainer beschikt over diepe technische kennis en een goede manier van uitleggen.
Students of BE6000 - MKBSE
Een van de sterke punten van deze training is dat het gewoon in het Nederlands wordt uitgelegd en de uitleg wordt ondersteund met heel veel plaatjes en tekeningen op het bord.
Student van Network+ training
De training is geschikt voor medewerkers in de ICT, maar ook voor mensen die nieuw zijn in dit vak en nog geen achtergrond hebben.
Student van Network+ training
CompTIA Security+ validates knowledge of communication security, infrastructure security, cryptography, operational security, and general security concepts. It is an international, vendor-neutral certification that is taught at colleges, universities and commercial training centers around the world.
Although not a prerequisite, it is recommended that CompTIA Security+ candidates have at least two years on-the-job networking experience, with an emphasis on security. The CompTIA Network+ certification is also recommended.
Because human error is the number one cause for a network security breach, CompTIA Security+ is recognized by the technology community as a valuable credential that proves competency with information security.

Park Avenue Faux-Fur Pet Jacket in Chinchilla

"What's your dog begging for? Surely, a faux-fur jacket—tricked out with a jeweled button closure and a practical opening for a leash. (I would have put this on my dogs when I lived in Chicago.) Bonus: It's machine washable (use a gentle cycle for maximum fluffiness)." —Oprah

Biz Break: 10 Things You Need to Know Today If You Ever Expect Joe Biden To Take You Seriously
By Dustin Rowles | Trade News | November 8, 2012 | Comments ()
The Rock and Brett Ratner have officially signed on to Hercules, reports Deadline. The screenplay is adapted from the graphic novel Hercules: The Thracian Wars. The part, however, presents an interesting challenge for Dwayne Johnson: He's at his most bad ass with facial hair, while he's more charming without. Hercules had no facial hair: Can The Rock work through the impediment?
Meanwhile, some irresponsible dumbass floated an Internet rumor that Mark Wahlberg might star in Transformers 4, replacing Shia LaBeouf, and while Michael Bay denied that rumor last week, he now says that the Internet chatter has given him the idea to go ahead and seek Wahlberg out for the part. Here's another Internet rumor: Michael Bay will fall down an elevator shaft. Make it come true, Bay!
Have you seen Safety Not Guaranteed? Great film with Mark Duplass, Jake Johnson, and Aubrey Plaza, and I can't recommend it enough. I'm not terribly stoked about the idea of a Star Wars VII, but if rumors that Colin Treveroww -- who directed Safety Not Guaranteed -- is up for director, that may convince me to come around on the project. Of course, others have already been rumored, as well, including Matthew Vaughn, Steven Spielberg, Neill Blomkamp, Alfonso Cuarón, Darren Aronofsky, and Joss Whedon, Of those, I like Treverrow best, and would prefer the other directors to stick with their other projects, rather than get mired in years of work on a Star Wars film.
I know that some of you in America have been ripping it on the sly, but for the honest among you, know that "Downton Abbey" will return to PBS on January 6th. Plan your hat wear accordingly.
Kristen Wiig and Bill Hader are set to co-star in Skeleton Twins, a movie about "estranged twins Maggie and Milo, who coincidentally cheat death on the same day, prompting them to reunite and confront how their lives went so wrong." Luke Wilson will play the husband of Wiig's character, reports Variety.
I guess, as godfather and consultant on Zack Snyder's Man of Steel, Christopher Nolan's sway could only go so far, as Warner Brothers has unfortunately decided to convert the film to 3D in post-production. That's a big fat: BOOOO.
That dreadful Kennedys mini-series starring Katie Holmes that aired on the Starz channel last year may get a sequel centered on the life of the Kennedys after the 1968 assassination of Bobby Kennedy up until the modern day.
In bummer news, Ariel Winter -- who plays Alex Dumphy on "Modern Family" -- has been removed from the custody of her mother after allegations that she physically and verbally abused her daughter, including depriving her of food and sexualizing her.
This should lift your spirits, however: Leslie Knopes' fantasy man, Vice President Joe Biden, filmed a scene for "Parks and Recreation." The cameo -- filmed last summer -- was kept secret due to Equal Time laws. It will air next week.
Finally, I leave you with this: Some of the best lines of "Firefly" transformed by auto tune into a surprisingly upbeat song, via The Mary Sue.

You have to register with a third party service to use this plugin. That on it's own makes this not a simple plugin to use.
I honestly haven't even looked into this plugin further, why waste my time? I don't want any tracking or other bloatware for my website.
The "LR" icon on the dashboard, with its own (completely unecessary) menu is disgusting. It could easily be moved under the "Settings" page like every other plugin.
The settings link in the Plugins section opens up the settings page, in fact, although it doesn't actually take you to a page underneath... Not sure what that's all about, but it's quite hacky either way. The links on the plugin settings page uses light blue links on a light blue background. I can't even be bothered trying to read them.
Everything about this just seems awful. Don't bother.

CRANDON, Wis. — In an event steeped in history made by legendary names in off-road racing, another racer has made his mark. CJ Greaves successfully defended his TORC: The Off-Road Championship Presented by AMSOIL PRO 2WD title Sunday in addition to earning both the PRO 4WD championship in his first season in the class and holding off Chad Hord for the AMSOIL Cup. At the season-ending Keys to the Big House Powered by Kenda Tire Traction Dealers, Greaves and his Toyota finished third in the PRO 2WD race behind winner Marty Hart and runner up Keegan Kincaid, and finished second in PRO 4WD behind Kincaid, clinching the championship.
STURGIS, S.D. (Aug. 5, 2015) — An impressive crowd at the 75th Annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally watched part-time TORC Series PRO Light driver Kyle Kleiman earn his first-ever class victory Tuesday at the Battle of the Chip at the Legendary Buffalo Chip Powersports Complex. It was a hard-fought, physical battle for the entire race that saw points leader Doug Mittag with his Cooper Tire-sponsored machine finish second with Cam Reimers putting his Liquid Wrench truck in third for his third podium finish of the season.
CHARLOTTE — It was a Greaves family sweep this weekend in TORC: The Off-Road Championship presented by AMSOIL as the series made its annual trip to NASCAR country for Showdown in Charlotte, Rounds 9 and 10 in the national championship series.
Defending PRO 4WD champion Johnny Greaves dominated Saturday's Round 10, while his son CJ Greaves finished runner-up. The two had also finished one-two a day earlier – but it was CJ Greaves who earned the win on Friday. The parallel results meant no change to the PRO 4WD points spread after the ninth and 10th rounds in the championship. The younger Greaves remains a slim six points ahead of his father.
Appleton, WI – The Flying Dutchman Off-Road team will be back on the track next weekend at Crandon International Off-Road Raceway. Mike Vanden Heuvel will once again pilot the family's familiar red Maxxis Tire equipped PRO-2WD as the team marks its thirty-sixth year of racing at the "Big House."
Dana Point, Calif. – TORC: The Off-Road Championship Presented by AMSOIL, the nation's premiere short-course, off-road racing series, has announced the launch of a new contingency award platform designed to leverage the reach of social media while facilitating management of awards and payouts in the TORC series.
Dana Point, Calif. – The Off-Road Championship, the nations premiere short-course, off-road racing series, has announced Husqvarna as a 2014 Series Partner as well as naming rights sponsor for the TORC race scheduled for April 25 and 26, 2014, at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
"Last year we partnered with TORC to see if traction could be developed in partnering dealers with racing fans at a grassroots event. Stepping out of a traditional dealer showroom experience and giving customers a chance to engage with products in a non-traditional way was positively received," said Jim Parello, Director of Marketing, Husqvarna.
Dana Point, Calif. – Jan. 10, 2014 – TORC: The Off-Road Championship, the nations premiere short-course, off-road racing series, has announced the return of AMSOIL as series presenting sponsor in a renewed multi-year commitment to supporting one of the worlds most exciting, high-energy motorsports concepts.
"There is a tremendous future in short-course racing," said Jeremy Meyer, AMSOIL Race Program Manager. "As presenting sponsor since its inception, AMSOIL is excited to continue our partnership with TORC as well as the commitment to keep the foundation of the sport in Crandon and Bark River while expanding to legendary venues like Sturgis. The best is truly ahead of us, and AMSOIL will continue to test its products in this harsh environment."
A few months ago, advertising agency and production company The Armory announced its acquisition of The Off-Road Championship (TORC). As the producer of the television show for the TORC Series for the previous four years, The Armory saw great opportunity to take over the series and work to build the TORC brand.
The Armory President BJ Birtwell addressed the media today at a press conference during the 2013 SEMA Show, providing an overview of the acquisition of TORC as well as insight into its future plans. The Armory officially takes over TORC on January 1st, 2014, though it has already been in the works hammering out details for coming year's schedule. The biggest news is that the plan is for TORC to be a coast-to-coast series.
El Cajon, CA – The weekend at Red Bud MX really put Douglas Motorsports to the test as the team practically every resource available to put the #7 AMSOIL Borla Exhaust PRO-4×4 back on the podium. After having some early season success, the team had its share of mid-season struggles, but like all successful teams, Douglas Motorsports looks to be back on track after a solid third place finish in Round Twelve.
Scott Douglas and his team arrived in southwestern Michigan Wednesday evening and spent the next day working with various media outlets promoting the weekend of TORC racing. Douglas even took time to talk off-road racing with multi-time Supercross/Motocross champion Ricky Carmichael as the "GOAT" would be making his short-course debut at Red Bud.
Escanaba, MI – After back to back wins in at Chicagoland Speedway, Danny Beauchamp backed up that performance with great charge from the back of the field to finish second in Round 7 of the Traxxas TORC Series presented by AMSOIL. With only two more rounds of racing left in the season, Beauchamp is definitely in the hunt for Super Stock Truck Championship.
In previous years, the one mile long Red Bud short-course track has been known to really tear up both Sportsman and PRO race trucks. In an effort to minimize the wear and tear on all TORC racers, the actual layout was slightly changed as portions of the track were widened and the downhill section was relocated eliminating a troublesome off-camber corner. Of course the high flying rollers and the monster -air step-up were still in place.

18 February 2008
It's hoped this will all change now that a transfrontier turtle monitoring project is in place.
Dr Roelie Kloppers, project coordinator for the Lubombo Transfrontier Conservation Area, said data is currently being collected for the entire Maputaland coastline, from St Lucia in the south to Santa Maria in Mozambique in the north.
This will result in the first report defining the status of turtle populations along this entire strip of coastline - together with management recommendations.
It is the intention that Eduardo Videira, secretary of the Mozambican Turtle Working Group will present the Mozambican component of the report to the Ministry of Tourism in Mozambique (which is also responsible for conservation efforts in that country).
Kloppers said the project was initiated towards the end of last year, and formed part of current efforts to proclaim the 85km coastline from Ponta do Ouro to Santa Maria (opposite Inhaca Island, 100km north of Kosi Bay) in Mozambique as a Marine Protected Area.
Those involved in the project are the marine manager of the Maputo Special Reserve, Matthew Prophet, the Peace Parks Foundation, the Mozambican Turtle Group and Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife.
Ezemvelo's Kosi Bay conservation manager, Finias Muchacha, and resource ecologist Dr Scotty Kyle have provided tags for the turtles and are responsible for explaining to the Mozambicans how monitoring has, for many years, been carried out in Rocktail Bay, Bhanga Nek and other parts of Maputaland on the South African side of the border.
To ensure consistency on both sides of the border, data is being collected on standardised forms. Data gathered in Mozambique is checked by Prophet, while Kyle and Muchacha are responsible for that gathered by Ezemvelo.

Labeling of food consumption is related to food safety, food quality, environmental, safety, and social concerns. Future politics of food will be based on a redefinition of commodity food consumption as an expression of citizenship. "Citizen-consumers" realize that they could use their buying power in order to develop a new terrain of social agency and political action. It takes for granted kinds of moral selfhood in which human responsibility is bound into human agency based on knowledge and recognition. This requires new kinds of food labeling practices. Existing research on consumer's preferences often fails to recognize the full complexity of the motivations and intentions through which the identity of the moral self is built up in relation to food consumption practices. For citizens, not only food production practices matter but also the impact of what we eat on who we are and the ecological foot print of our food stuff. Two major drivers for this are the idea that we ourselves have to take care of our own bodies ("We are what we eat") and that we are responsible for Planet Earth. Since both obesity and climate change have become major public concerns, also governments develop an increasing interest in defining how citizens ought to behave as consumers and how retailers and producers should facilitate such responsible behavior. Since they are supposed to defend the "bonum commune," e.g., the public health of their citizens and a sound common future for all, a new consensus on "appropriate" consumption choices has to be found, balancing beneficence and autonomy.

The present application is a U.S. national application of PCT Application No. PCT/IL01/00007, filed on Jan. 2, 2001.
The present invention relates to the field of system integration, for example for motor control systems.
Robotics systems in general and especially motor drive systems, typically require a high level of manual integration. For example, in many robotics systems, wires are connected by hand between screw connectors on control units and on motor units. After the wiring is completed, typically by a skilled robotics electrician, a calibration and testing phase, for checking that the wiring is correctly connected, is performed.
Generally, for field installation, a complete team including not only an electrician, but also a skilled integrator, is required. One reason for this need is the wide variety of sensors and actuators which may be used. As a result, even if an attempt is made to use standard cables, there is usually no avoiding the use of dedicated wiring, attached to components using screws and the like.
In an alternative scheme, the robotics system is assembled and tested at the factory, then disassembled for transport, so substantially no complex wiring, calibration and testing is required in the field, but field modification is close to impossible.
An aspect of some embodiments of the invention is a methodology for assisting in robotics system integration, in which, a robotics system is assembled from components in one of a myriad of configurations, and only limited integration ability is required to produce a working system. In some particular embodiments of the invention, the system compensates for a lack of integration experience on the part of the integrator. In some embodiments of the invention, the system self-integrates. Alternatively or additionally, the system prompts the integrator to run certain tests and/or make certain adjustments. Alternatively or additionally, the system self-diagnoses. Optionally, the cable connectors are plugs, optionally with flexible pin assignment ability, for example to allow automatic pin assignment. Alternatively or additionally, an integrator informs the system of its desired operational behavior, to assist in the self-integration. In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, the result is that no dedicated wiring is required. Optionally, the pin assignment can change automatically when the function of the system changes.
An aspect of some embodiments of the invention relates to providing a part information database with each component of a robotics system, and a set of components having such information, for use in an integrating-assisting system. One potential advantage is that a system constructed from such components, can be integrated with little or no specialized knowledge of the components. Another potential advantage is that the expertise lies in the system, not in any particular integrator, so later modification and/or debugging of the system is easier. Exemplary components include motors, other actuators, control elements and sensors. The database may be provided, for example, on an attachment to the component or on a part that is integral to the component. Alternatively, the parts or attachments include a serial number or other codes. Information for the particular element is retrieved, based on the coded information, from a central repository, for example the system controller or an Internet. Possibly, other programming, parameters and/or operational data may also be retrieved from such repositories. Although the information is preferably complete, in some embodiments of the invention, the information is limited to a particular set of values required for a system that is to be constructed of the components. Thus, the components or the central repository may be programmed for particular system configurations, while still supporting some future modification.
An aspect of some embodiments of the invention relates to a set of robotics components, each component including means for providing the component integration information. In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, the set is packaged with a software (possibly on a controller) for configuring a robotics system using such components. In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, the software requires little or no user input. In particular, expert user input is preferably avoided. In some cases however, some expert information may be required, and possibly provided by telephone or computer network.
An aspect of some embodiments of the invention relates to a robotics system that detects, configures and/or test its components, for example when turned on and/or periodically.
An aspect of some embodiments of the invention, relates to an intelligent system management software that can assist in anticipating problems in activating the system and/or in diagnosing and/or solving such problems once they appear. In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, the software rejects commands and/or configurations that are likely to fail and/or provide unreasonable wear.
Alternatively or additionally, the system management software can assist in expansion and/or upgrading of the system. In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, the system suggests upgrades that are suitable for the standard use of the system. Alternatively or additionally, the system translates non-technical specifications entered by a user into a list of suggested replacement parts.
An aspect of some embodiments of the invention relates to a converter box for coupling together motors having normally open limit switches and normally closed limit switches. In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, the converter box is connected between a power circuit and the limit switch (and motor). The cable between the converter box and the limit switch preferably includes a signal that indicates the type of limit switch, so the converter box can deal with it accordingly.

Alternatively or additionally, the method comprises repeating said prompting and said entering, to perform an interactive system integration process. Alternatively or additionally, generating a prompt comprises consulting a database responsive to said assembly of said system to generate said prompt.
In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, the method comprises consulting a database responsive to said response, as an input for a self configuration process.
There is also provided in accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the invention, a self-predicting system, comprising:
a plurality of robotics components;
a memory storing therein a system configuration map; and
an input for a command to the system; and
a controller that receives at least one command from said input and that analyzes said command in view of said map, to predict a possible failure mode of the robotics system. Optionally, said controller determines said failure mode based on at least one of initial speed, final speed and acceleration of at least one of said components. Alternatively or additionally, said controller comprises a database of failure scenarios and wherein said controller utilizes said database for said analysis. Alternatively or additionally, said controller comprises a database of experience, learned by said controller in the use of said system and wherein said controller utilizes said database for said prediction. Alternatively or additionally, said controller is a centralized component. Alternatively, said controller comprises a plurality of controller component distributed between at least some of said components.
There is also provided in accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the invention, an expanding system, comprising:
a plurality of robotics components assembled into a working system;

an input for selecting whether said emulator maintains an overload switch in said motor in a normally open or a normally closed position.
Non-limiting embodiments of the invention will be described with reference to the following description of exemplary embodiments, in conjunction with the figures. The figures are generally not shown to scale and any measurements are only meant to be exemplary and not necessarily limiting. In the figures, identical structures, elements or parts which appear in more than one figure are preferably labeled with a same or similar number in all the figures in which they appear, in which:
In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, the cables are connected using plugs. In one embodiment of the invention each plug can only be connected in one way, with each pin having a pre-defined function. Thus; errors in pin assignment and/or pin cross-connections are prevented. Alternatively or additionally, the modules, for example the controller modules and/or motor modules include circuitry for pin identification and assignment. In one example, during system start up the plug circuitry checks the pin assignment and/or reassign the pins to the desired control and/or power signals. Pin reassignment may, for example, utilize solid state switches and/or electrically actuated mechanical switches.
Alternatively or additionally to plug connections configuration, system 100 automatically detects drive rotation direction and/or corrects the rotation direction. Apparently, rotation direction is difficult to determine prior to integration and forms a major problem in integration.
Alternatively or additionally to using dedicated lines, a general bus, such as a VME bus, may be used.
Optionally, a user interface 115 is provided, for example to allow a user to enter information and/or commands, review system information and/or respond to system queries.
In another exemplary configuration, each motor is associated with a driver, which driver receives feedback from a machine and provides driving signals to the motor. A controller, which may be shared by several drivers, controls the action of the motors. The controllers may be connected to a host computer, for example for programming. In some embodiments, feedback is from the motor and/or is provided to the controller or the host. In the previously described embodiment of
At 202, system 100 is assembled, for example using plugs and fittings that allow only correct connections. In some cases, only a single system layout is possible using the provided components. Alternatively, a user can select among several system designs, with the component design only preventing illegal connections (e.g., power signals to control signal). Alternatively or additionally, the system assists a user in selecting a most appropriate unit for his needs. For example, system 100 may use a user input that defines a system requirement or behavior, to rule out certain units or to suggest lower quality units where possible.
At 204, an optional self configuration process is performed, in which system 100 detects all the components, and, if an automated pin assignment circuitry is provided, assigns functions to pins for the cables and the control boxes.
In one exemplary embodiment of the invention, a user can select from a wide range (all or part) of commercially available system components. The type and/or at least some properties of the system components are automatically detected and/or entered manually (described below). Alternatively, the system may prompt a user to perform certain diagnostic actions, so that the type and/or properties of the components can be determined from their response to the action(s).
Alternatively, some or all of the system components (e.g., controllers, power supplies and cables) are provided with a degree of intelligence. This intelligence may be utilized, for example, for one or more of the following uses:
The learning and/or intelligent behavior ability of the system may be provided using components known in the art, for example, example based learning, rule based learning, neural network learning and other learning method known in the art. Alternatively or additionally, a database of rules, specifications, cause-effect rules and/or translations between user input and technical specifications, is provided. Updates to the database may be based on the system experience and/or may be downloaded. Alternatively or additionally, other intelligent software components, as known in the art, may be used.
The system controller is optionally a complete controller including, for example, motion control, discrete I/O control, serial ports control and a software sequencer.
At 206, a user inputs into the system a "system image" which represents one or more functions expected from the system. As a result of the system image, various adjustments may be made to the system, for example, the rotation direction of drive motors may be changed, so that the system will perform coherently.
Alternatively or additionally, at 208, calibration may be performed, for example, a user testing to see which direction the motors turn and setting up system parameters to have a desired effect. Optionally, system 100 directs the user to perform certain tests and/or make certain decision regarding the functionality of system 100. In a particular embodiment of the invention, the system queries the user for the direction of rotation of a motor.
Once calibration is completed, system 100 may be used (210). Optionally, some or all of steps 204–208 are performed each time system 100 is turned on, for example to support module replacement, removal and/or addition.
Alternatively or additionally to system 100 guiding or otherwise supporting the integration, system 100 may be connected by computer communications to a remote guiding computer, for example via an Internet or a dial-up connection. Thus, the expertise of system configuration may remain at a central office. In some embodiments of the invention, system 100 is designed to have limited functionality. Information regarding the limited functionality may be associated with system 100, to assist in calibration and/or testing of the system.
System 10 may include one or more safety features, for example, limit switches at a driver level of the units; normally closed limit switches; and/or watchdog timers in the controllers, to hold motor movement when a controlling host computer or PLC would be found unguarded.
In a configuration 300, a controller 306 is connected to a motor 304 that includes a limit switch. As is well known, different countries have different standards for limit switches. In some countries, the limit switches are normally open. In other countries, the limit switches are normally closed. When building a system, it is desirable not to be limited to a particular type of switching logic.
Converter 302 includes a limit switch emulator 308. Power signals are transmitted as is over a cable 312. Signals from a limit switch are passed via a cable 310 to limit switch emulator 308. In some embodiments of the invention, cable 310 includes a control signal indicating the type of limit switch logic on motor 304.
Connectors 404, 406 and 408, may be used, for example for position output, power and control signals, respectfully. The control signal may be analog signals and/or digital signals. In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, module 400 includes an IC, for example an ASIC or a small circuit, for storing data and/or answering queries, for example re configuration. In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, modules 400 communicate using a packet switched network, however, other network type s may be used.

We have a Zemanta plugin (PRO account) for WordPress 3.5.2. We recently upgraded the plugin from 1.1.2 to 1.2.2, and noticed the image-settings, have and issue with the default WP's media editor.
On a new post, when a new image is inserted from Zemanta and immediately open the image edit modal (from view tab, clicking the "edit image") and trying to update the caption, the caption won't be updated.
Please keep in mind that since on image click, it opens up the image settings for the inserted image, and double click will open the media modal.
However, we noticed that once the post is saved, or if I switch to a text tab and back to view tab, I can update the caption through media editor.
Is this a glitch or known issue that would be fixed on the future release?

Intel reportedly expects shipments of 20-30M ultrabooks in 2012A new report claims Intel has set internal estimates of between 20 to 30 million ultrabook units this year.
According to DigiTimes, sources from the upstream supply chain have revealed the chipmaker's plans. Intel also reportedly expects ultrabook shipments to jump up by "double or even triple" in 2013.
The report noted that the second generation of ultrabook will launch "after May 2012" and combination tablet/ultrabooks will arrive in the fourth quarter alongside the release of Microsoft's Windows 8.
Intel is also said to be looking into technologies that could help spur ultrabook adoption. Reinforced plastic chassis and ultra-thin optical disk drives were specifically mentioned by the report as components that the company is cooperating with upstream makers on.
CEO Paul Otellini revealed on an earnings call earlier this week that the next generation of processors bound for "mainstream notebooks" won't arrive until the second launch of its Ivy Bridge architecture, as the "bulk" of the chips from the first wave will go toward desktop computers. Intel is expected to formally launch Ivy Bridge next week.
Intel put forth the ultrabook design specification last May as an alternative to the MacBook Air and iPad. For its part, the Mac maker is expected to release a thinner and light design of its 15-inch MacBook Pro within weeks that could threaten sales of high-end ultrabooks.
The initial target for ultrabook sales was for the category to reach a 40 percent share of the consumer laptop market by the end of this year. However, at least one analyst believes ultrabook sales will not be "meaningful enough" to stimulate growth in the notebook market until 2013.

UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon has announced that he is ending the appointment of American diplomat Peter Galbraith as his deputy special representative to the UN mission in Afghanistan…The decision was taken after U.S. and other NATO members decided last week in meetings in New York that after a small 10% sample of the vote, they would probably endorse Hamid Karzai's reelection to a new five year term as Afghanistan's president.
Galbraith had feuded with his boss, Norwegian diplomat Kai Eide, over how the UN should react to widespread alleged vote fraud in Afghanistan's August presidential elections…
"The mission is in shambles," a U.S. diplomat familiar with the UN Afghanistan operation said on condition of anonymity. "The staff is in open rebellion. It is pretty weird that at the United Nations, if you were running around pinching derrieres of female staff, or embezzling funds, it would take months before you were fired," the diplomat continued. "Or if you were merely incompetent, it could take a year or more. But if you happen to say something is wrong about massive fraud in an election, you'd be gone in a week."

How pro-oil Louisiana politicians have shaped American environmental policy
In Havana, the past year has been marked by a parade of bold-faced names from the north — John Kerry reopening the United States Embassy; Andrew Cuomo bringing a delegation of American business leaders; celebrities ranging from Joe Torre, traveling on behalf of Major League Baseball to oversee an exhibition game between the Tampa Bay Rays and the Cuban national team, to Jimmy Buffett, said to be considering opening one of his Margaritaville restaurants there. All this culminated with a three-day trip in March by Barack Obama, the first American president to visit Cuba since Calvin Coolidge in 1928. But to those who know the city well, perhaps nothing said as much about the transformation of political relations between the United States and Cuba that began in December 2014 as a concert in the Tribuna Antiimperialista.

I'm building a basic CRUD library, that I anticipate use in both local (add reference) and wcf (add service reference) environments.
What are the best return types for the Create, Uupdate, and Delete portions (that have more complex business rules) of a CRUD setup?
I want to be able to minimize back-and-forth on the wire, but I also want to provide my clients with meaningful information about when an operation fails my business logic, but is technically valid (thus it's not an exception).
Take for example the CRUD is for a Person class, which has these fields: FirstName, MiddleName LastName, and Date of Brith. First, Last, and DOB are required, but Middle is not.
How should I convey failures of business logic back to the client? I.E. "You must specify a value for FirstName."
- Is this where I should be throwing exceptions? (it does not feel like an exceptional case, so I think not but I could be wrong).
- Should I use void and an "out" parameter? If so, what type should it be?
- Should I use an object return type and put data in there about what happens?
- Some other option that I've missed completely?

by Doug Wilson from Blog and Mablog - On Why Christian Women Are PrettierEditor's note: Wilson tries to claim in this piece that Christian women are more beautiful because they were created as God's glory and that they keep this glory by their good works, not plastic surgery, not expensive products or good genetics but by works. Again, women reduced down to a small subset of their true potential. … [Read more...]

It's obvious the apple didn't fall very from from the parental tree.

"Lies Women Believe" Review 135 – 167

Two Male Patrick Henry College Students Blame Females For Their Lust
by Bruce Gerencser cross posted from his blog The Life and Times of Bruce GerencserAs I have shared before, Evangelical young men are taught that they are weak, pathetic creatures easily led astray by mere exposure to too much female flesh. A little cleavage or a tight blouse has led many an Evangelical man to the slaughter. Instead of being taught to own and control their sexuality, many Evangelical men whine, moan, and complain about women "tempting" them to sin. Well, the moaning part is them masturbating after seeing too much of Sister Sue. Let me give an example of this kind of thinking. A year ago, Homeschooler's Anonymous published a 2006 letter written by two Patrick Henry Colleg … [Read more...]
