Charge- 2nd DUI
BAC level- .15
Criminal Defense Attorney
It differs from court to court, but generally, yes you will likely get some probation in addition to any jail time served. The maximum probation time for OWI is 2 years. You should contact a criminal defense attorney that practices regularly in the court that you're going to. He/she should be able to tell you what to expect. Good luck.
Criminal Defense Attorney
Each court is different but usually there is some jail time as well as probation.
Business Attorney
Depending on the court there will in this situation some jail time and probation, community service, treatment, classes a significant suspension/revocation, additional drivers safety fees, and very high insurance rates. There will be fines and potential interlocks and monitoring. This is very serious and expensive. Get an experienced attorney to attempt to mitigate your damages.
To the PROSPECTIVE client, please call myself or another attorney for your choice with more detaiils and an appointment. My PRELIMINARY answer to your question(s) is for general purposes and based upon what little information you have conveyed. It is based on such limited information that the general answer should never be relied as a reason for your action or inaction. My response does NOT establish an attorney-client relationship and such may only be established by mutual agreement, and the signing of a written retainer agreement, which will generally require payment for our services, as this is what we do for a living and, just like you, we must get paid for our work.. .
Criminal Defense Attorney
It is a very rare OWI case where jail is imposed that does not also have a tail of probation to follow unless, you were given the statutory maximum jail sentence and the probation department has already indicated in the screening assessment that is part of your pre-sentencing report that you would not be a good candidate for community supervision following jail. Otherwise, expect a period of probation so that the court can attempt to save you from yourself and what the court believes are your bad decisions.

Painting on the reverse side of glassIsaac loved art. (See "Art in Isaac's Life and Today," 1-22-2014 in the blog archives.) His estate sale included not only his art books but also many framed engravings, slides of art for this stereoscope, and images of artists from his card albums. One of his ideas when he was still just a boy was painting a landscape by looking through glass. In fact, creating art on glass, to be viewed from the unpainted side, was very popular during the Victorian era. My own family collection includes the beautiful pink roses painted on glass shown in the photograph to the right. Remember, unlike paintings in which the objects and figures are blocked out and the details are added, painting on glass requires you to paint the details first and then fill in the backgrounds, obscuring the details as you layer the background areas. That seems very difficult to me!However, this week's blog is not about art history or antique crafts but rather about making an even richer art history for our region's future. Mimi Filley wished to honor the memory of her late husband, Dr. Vernon Filley, by gifting art she had collected, together with a generous donation for the building of the Vernon Filley Art Museum which allowed the building to be built free of debt.
Mimi's dream came true because of the generous efforts of many members of the community, several of whom served on the museum board when fulfilling that dream seemed overwhelming (some of those board members having remained on the board long enough to see the dream fulfilled). Many volunteered along the way, and continue to volunteer their time and effort, in many capacities. Many others gave generously, their contributions allowing construction extras that would not otherwise have been done, and just as important, funding the services that will be available immediately. Not every generous donor appears on the Founder's Plaque, but those particular donors and others stepped forward to make sure there were funds to hire staff, equip a state-of-the-art storage facility, landscape beautifully, train docents (whose generous gift of time and study to give tours is essential to the programs for adults and school children), equip and stock a gift shop that will offer original art and books not available in other local stores, commission a bronze made especially for the museum, gift custom gates for the court yard, provide funding to prepare for adult and children's art classes, support training for grant writers, fund an advertising budget to bring visitors to our museum and our town, and provide the support for the operating budget for our start-up year. The dream is coming true because of countless acts of giving, whether gifts of time, talent, or money, without which Mimi's dream would not have happened. Each of those gifts, big or small, made a difference.
Several members of the Board at the Slab PartyOur Co-Directors, Stan Reimer (who has shepherded the dream from the beginning), and Brittany Novotony (who brings her Master's Degree in museum management to the Filley's future success), as well as the members of our current board of directors, have brought their many talents and have donated countless hours in preparation for the exciting day so long awaited (and for the days ahead).The Grand Opening of the Vernon Filley Art Museum is Sunday, June 29th, 2014, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. Help us spread the word! Pratt and the surrounding region have a long history of appreciation for the arts (some of which I have shared in this blog), and now the region has a new member to add to its family of museums, galleries, and other attractions.?
We have some surprises in store for you, and we hope many of you arrive in time to see Mimi Filley take the scissors in her hands for the ribbon cutting. The Directors, Board Members, and Docents will be present to answer your questions and make your first visit to your museum more enjoyable and informed.
Landscaping underway at 421 S. Jackson St., Pratt, KSThe Grand Opening is free to the public, and we hope everyone will come to learn more about all of the activities the Filley has planned for members. Membership forms and people to help will be at the Opening to answer your questions about the various membership levels and the benefits they offer.I just know that Isaac would have been the first one through the doors when the ribbon was cut at the Grand Opening at 2 p.m. on June 29th, to take advantage of the membership benefits of joining an art museum with both a permanent collection and rotating visiting exhibitions constantly bringing new art to his area! Isaac did not live to experience that opportunity, but you can! Come celebrate the opening of the new museum at 421 South Jackson Street, Pratt, KS, one block west of Main Street between 4th and 5th Streets!!

The Head of the Dakota Co-op Board Is Moving
Today's Times real estate section has a plummy but not-very-well-disguised blind item: Who could be moving out of this gorgeous, $29.6 million 5,100-square-foot apartment — with two balconies, a terrace, and a long view of Central Park? Full of lovingly restored mahogany and in the Dakota (where Yoko Ono brings sushi to the annual neighbors' potluck), no less? The paper genteelly explains that the owner, an "investor" there since 1995, is simply moving out of town. Meanwhile, Page Six reports that Bruce Barnes, the "embattled" head of the co-op board, is giving up his $29.6 million apartment there after seventeen years. Connecting the dots doesn't exactly seem like a stretch. Barnes' LinkedIn profile not only shows a career in investing, but an interest — currently, "Founder at American Decorative Art 1900 Foundation" in precisely the era that dominates the decor of the for-sale residence.
Page Six speculates, via a source doing his own speculation, that Barnes' decision to move has something to do with the controversy around a lawsuit filed by another former co-op board president against the group under Barnes' tenure. Alphonse Fletcher Jr, who is black, wanted to buy a second apartment in the building; the board denied his request, and he sued them for "discriminatory and racist practices." The source said he "may have announced his departure from the building ahead of the next board meeting for a reason."
But Barnes himself told friends in an e-mail that the space was a large one for two people, and that he and his partner are indeed planning to spend most of their time out of town if the place sells. "It has been a pleasure to serve for the last three years on the Board of Directors, and I remain fully committed to my role as its president for the remainder of the current term," he added.

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
320 pages; Penguin Classics
Available at: Amazon.com | Barnes & Noble | IndieBound
Gary Sinise was 18 when he first read this 1962 novel, set in an Oregon mental institution full of such memorable characters as the domineering Nurse Ratched and Randle McMurphy, an inmate who fakes insanity to get out of serving a prison sentence. "He was the ultimate 1960s antihero, which is why so many young people could relate to this book," says Sinise, who played McMurphy in a 2001 Tony Award-winning production. "The play, much like the book, is focused around McMurphy—if you have a tired McMurphy, you have a troubled production. So I had to muster up the energy. It was a lot of stomping and shouting, but it was a great time."
— As told to Naomi Barr

I was away from Internet for three days, then came back to find 1700+ spam comments in my inbox, waiting to be validated. Certain spam rushes happen frequently on my blog, and since I get very few legitimate comments, I just decided to disable all comments. I went to the master controls and unchecked "Allow people to post comments", then went through and disabled both comments and pings on every entry I've written. The problem is, spambot comments are still getting through - kinda defeats the purpose. Is there something else I've forgotten to do? It's kinda ticking me off.

Rat Race
Say what you will about The Rugrats Movie (my five-year-old daughter and I enjoyed it at least as much as the next family unit), but its sentimental view of sibling rivalry plays a distant second to the movie's real duh of a raison d'être: marketing. According to Fortune, the film is the cornerstone of an unprecedented intracorporate branding effort for Viacom and its media subsidiaries. Indeed, the most fascinating thing about the TV series even more than the show-offy animation, dim-witted yuppie parents, and winking film references was always its self-reflexive attitude toward the merchandise it spewed forth.
That's why it was no surprise to find the Stu Picklesdesigned Reptar Wagon, a baby Bondmobile voiced by Busta Rhymes, the movie's literal prime mover. With its Barney-meetsT. Rex appeal, Reptar is an integral element of the Rugrats universe. Neither as pathetic as Krusty the Clown nor as dumb as the Dummi Bears, Reptar parades through the 'rats' collective consciousness as an evolving product line that must constantly one-up itself to survive. So while my daughter is passing on Burger King's cheesy Reptar watch, she'd give up college in a second for a Reptar Wagon.

Items About Areas That Could Break Out Into War
November 15, 2005: As if Syrian President Bashir Asad hasn't got enough problems, what with trying to walk a fine line between reformist and conservative factions in the Baathist regime, trying to fend off UN pressure regarding Syrian involvement in the death of former Lebanese PM Rafic Hariri (which may reach right into his immediate family), and the ordinary, everyday trials and tribulations of being a dictator, what with the ever present threat of coups and assassination attempts, he now faces a serious economic problem - Syria is running out of oil.While never one of the mega-petroleum producers, for most of the past 30 years Syria's daily output averaged about 600 thousand barrels. This was more than sufficient to provide for the country's internal petroleum consumption, for most of the period under 200,000 barrels a day, and brought in a substantial amount in foreign exchange, particularly since the local product is a relatively high quality light crude. This effectively subsidized the Syrian economy, while providing the Baathist regime with lots of extra cash. But for the last few years production has been declining, to just under 500 thousand barrels a day, while domestic consumption has been rising, probably topping 300,000 barrels a day in 2004.
The government has taken a number of steps to address the problem, converting oil fired electrical plants to operate on natural gas, subsidizing extensive exploration, and so forth. But with only about 2.5 billion in proven reserves and rising consumption, the country is likely to become a net importer of oil within five years or so.
What keeps the Baath Party afloat in Syria is money, and most of the cash comes from Syrias small oil reserves. When the oil fades away, so does another pillar of support for the government.

The Class of 1685: Bach, Handel and Scarlatti
In 1685, within a period of eight months, three master composers were born: Scarlatti, Handel and Bach. Although each was extremely influential, they worked in very different ways because of the contrasting demands of their surroundings.
Richard Taruskin, author of The Oxford History of Western Music, joins NPR's Fred Child in the second of our series on Western music to talk about the divergent paths of these three men.

She comes like fullest moon on happy night,
Taper of waist with shape of magic might.
She hath an eye whose glances quell mankind,
And ruby on her cheeks reflects his light.
Enveils her hips the blackness of her hair--
Beware of curls that bite with viper bite!
Her sides are silken-soft, that while the heart
Mere rock behind that surface 'scapes our sight.
From the fringed curtains of her eyne she shoots
Shafts that at furthest range on mark alight.
--The Arabian Nights,
Tales from A Thousand And One Nights
My bottle of Amouage Ubar arrived this morning and I have been in full swoon ever since. This newly relaunched fragrance, named for a long-lost ancient trading city of the Middle East, smells true to its heritage—and the way it juxtaposes the delicacy of lily-of-the-valley against the perfume's deep and full-bodied fabric is masterful in creating the feeling of twilight settling over the open walls of a warm city. I read somewhere that lily is the Persian personification of night: the words lil or lilleh are designations for evening. Lilies-of-the-valley are of the lily family*, and though here in the United States we think of them as cheerful harbingers of spring and, thusly, more daylight, I have to say that the cool-and-ethereal quality of the lily-of-the-valley note in Ubar does very much remind me of evening, the way it twinkles throughout the fragrance like a night star. Eventually honeyed-rose and warm jasmine envelope it to a degree, along with a deliciously Old-World, vintagey-smelling base, thick with vanilla, civet and moss (and though it's not listed, vetiver, I believe). But somehow lilting lily-of-the-valley glides over, or pops in and out of this deep dusky expanse without ever fully succumbing to it (helped along by a chiffon-like lemon note in the scent's initial stages). It's as if the thrust of the perfume is to act as a sumptuous cushion for lily-of-valley to recline upon, so that she can beguile with her tender beauty for a long stretch of time. (Much like Scheherazade settling in for a long night of story-telling in order to survive, and eventually win the love of, her crazed and embittered husband, the Sultan Schahriar, who would otherwise have her head.)
The Amouage website lists the notes for Ubar as…
Top: Lemon, Bergamot, Lily-of-the-valley
Heart: Damascene Rose, Jasmine
Base: Civet, Vanilla
...but on the ingredients list, printed on the cellophane portion of the packaging, the company also lists "Evernia Prunastri (oakmoss)" and "Evernia Furfuracea (tree moss)," which I thought worth mentioning here for a couple reasons: firstly, because they contribute to the beauty of the fragrance's rich base; and, secondly, for those of you who love scents that employ oakmoss and are bemoaning the fact that it has been removed from many of your favorites, you might enjoy knowing that the Amouage company hasn't caved to industry pressures to abandon use of this precious ingredient, but has done the sensible thing (for those who are allergic or sensitive to it) by simply listing it on the ingredients list of their package.
As one would expect of a fragrance of this caliber, Amouage Ubar is long-wearing with a sillage that is very striking and yet, true to its good breeding, respectful. On the Amouage website, they have a review by Luca Turin that led me to believe that Ubar's sillage would be on the huge and flamboyant side, but I don't find this to be the case at all. It smells expensive, yes, but to me it has that twinkling, twilight quality that I mention above—a sense of twilight's quiet magic and mystery. This is a scent for formal attire—the perfect accompaniment to an evening dress—but since there are few occasions for that, and since I'm already so in love with Ubar, I'll be wearing it with less finery than it deserves. I should also mention that while Ubar is described as a woman's scent—and it does play more to the feminine side in terms of its notes—I'd love to smell it on a man. If my husband decided to wear this one, I would happily play the Sultana for him.

SOUTHBOROUGH � Contrary to statements made by Town Administrator Mark Purple several weeks ago, financial Advisory Committee members Wednesday said they had no recollection of any mention of a cemetery layoff during budget discussions this winter.
"I personally don�t remember any talk about a layoff," Chairman John Wood said at the beginning of�a discussion he�placed on the committee's agenda.
Longtime Cemetery Supervisor Bridget Gilleney-DeCenzo was laid off eight days after Town Meeting as a result, she was told, of a level-funded budget for the DPW. Her layoff has sparked outrage among many in town who�charge that�officials�weren�t transparent about their plans.
Wood Wednesday took a straw poll in which all seven of the members of the board present at the Feb. 24 budget discussion said they didn�t recall any layoff mentioned.
Member Kathryn Cook said she was "100 percent positive" that DPW Superintendent Karen Galligan didn�t mention the possibility of a layoff.
"She absolutely led us to believe that (budget savings)�was going to be effected through retirements," she said.
Sam Stivers, who took the minutes of the meeting, said he did not have anything in his notes relating to any layoff.
The�discussion appeared to back member Karen Muggeridge�s assertion at a Board of Selectman meeting on May 13 that the possibility of a layoff wasn�t discussed when Galligan�presented the DPW budget on Feb. 24.
"That�s not correct," Purple told Muggeridge on May 13. He said Galligan had in fact mentioned the possibility of the layoff, adding it was unfortunate the meeting wasn�t taped.
Purple attended Wednesday�s meeting, but wasn�t asked to speak and didn�t ask to address the board.
Asked about the discrepancy in his recollection afterward, Purple replied, "If eight people think it wasn�t said, than obviously it needed to be said more effectively."
Purple noted that Muggeridge did draw attention to the fact that the Advisory Committee received a document from Finance Director Brian Ballantine on Feb. 12�that stated that there would be a layoff.
Purple told The Daily News last month that that document was written earlier in the budget process when a layoff appeared imminent. Another, more recently written�document sent to the committee in the same Feb. 12 email�stated there was a possibility that no one would be laid off.
Purple said Galligan could speak better to the specifics of what�the Advisory Committee was told because, while he was there, she made the actual presentation.
Reached Wednesday night, Galligan said she "thought for sure there was an understanding there was a layoff.
"We weren�t hiding it," she said. "I thought we had communicated it, but apparently not well."

In the third century, according to legend, seven young Christian men from Ephesus refused the Roman Emperor Decius's command to sacrifice to idols. They had to flee the city and ended up hiding in a cave. Then, like the disciples in the garden, they fell asleep while praying. Having tracked the renegades down, Decius had the cave sealed.
More than three hundred years later, a local shepherd discovered the cave. Upon entering it, God awakened the youths, who thought they had slept for just a single night. One soon went into Ephesus to buy bread, but quickly discovered something significant had changed: Crosses now dotted the city. When he tried to pay for the bread with coins from the time of Decius, people in the marketplace took him to the bishop and then to the emperor. After recounting their tale, the boys again fell asleep, this time in death.
The Eighteenth Sura (chapter) of the Qur'an tells of a similar happening. Titled al-kahf, "The Cave," it contains almost twenty verses about the Sleepers. While the outline of the story is the same, there are notable variations: no historical context is provided; the youths have a dog that serves as guardian outside the cave; and they are morally perfected in their sleep, after which God presents them as proof that the Hour (of judgment and resurrection) is determined by God alone. The passage reminds the reader that resurrection is...

Creating an Open Kitchen
Few rooms are more appealing than a bright, open kitchen that invites family and friends to gather round. So after Tracy Stephenson Shaffer and her husband, Doug, gutted the makeshift cooking space in their 1852 cottage in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, they wanted to connect the kitchen to an adjacent family room, using a peninsula with stool seating on one side to delineate the two. The open-plan configuration would also keep the focus on the crowd-pleasing 1950s Chambers stove that inspired the room's vintage style.

This is a full length play written specifically for community theater. I am offering it to any non-profit theater company without cost to produce. (No royalties).
The Great American Western (the lost epidode), J. Edgar Hoover gets Busted---has won several regional awards and has been staged over 100 times. It is an edgy, politically incorrect musical that pokes fun at politicians, Hollywood, the government, and pop culture. This plays is easy to produce because the music is pre-taped and the cast simply sings along Karaoke style. Have fun with it.
An outstanding cast of professional local acting talent, including; Troy Wageman, Megan Chenovick, Timothy Glynn, Jeannette D'Armand and Marcus Wolland, heads up Lyric Light Opera's production of the Tony-Award-winning musical Brigadoon, opening September 7th at Kirkland Performance Center, 350 Kirkland Ave., Kirkland, WA.
In this dark political comedy, a frightened friend and an eager salesman disrupt a couple's quiet farm life. They and their heifers will never be the same. While traditional American optimism may be no match for fear-based patriotism, Shepard's vision is as ridiculous as it is angrily prophetic. If just for an evening, stop grinding your teeth and join us to laugh (& shudder) together in this ode to the last 8 years.
In the wake of the closure of local theater's critically-acclaimed Empty Space Theatre, Seattle is in danger of losing another one of its cultural landmarks.

IOIO-SHR Java programmable robot
The IOIO-SHR is my first attempt in using Java to program a robot. Using a Sparkfun IOIO board to control the hardware and an Android phone as the robot brain. I must confess that I wasn't a friend of Java until yet, but the simple example programs for the IOIO board gave me a good starting point.
IOIO board:
The Sparkfun IOIO board is based on a PIC24F microcontroller. 48 IOs are available (digital I/O, analog In, special functions like I2C, SPI, PWM and UART). It has a USB host port to communicate with an Android phone via ADB interface (ADK is in an experimental state, Bluetooth can be done with an firmware upgrade).
The best thing is, you don't need to program the IOIO board. It has a builtin firmware to talk to the Android phone. You only have to use the IOIO library in your Android Java program to get things done. The IOIO Library is very well designed and easy to use, similar to program an Arduino. Sourcecode is freely available at Github.
The chassis is build from a 3mm piece of styrene. Google SketchUp has been used to make the layout and a drill template.
2 hacked (continous drive) servos has been used for the drive system. The 3rd wheel is made from a deo roll-on.
First tests:
For the first test of obstacle avoiding only 2 bumper sensors have been used. Not really elegant, but it is working. The bumper whiskers were made of cable ties applied to a snap-action switch. Unfortunately the whiskers fall apart very quickly. Need a better solution for this
Further tests:
- Improve obstacle avoiding with a distance sensor.
- Make a line follower
Todo List:
- add a line sensor
- add a distance sensor
- change servos against DC geared motors and motor controller
- improve battery runtime
- find out how to record videos work in background on Android
- use the Android sensors (accelerometers, compass...)
- connect IOIO board and Android phone via bluetooth
Update 24.12.2011:
New Video is up. Showing Line follower behaviour.
A Pololu QTR-8A line sensor aray has been used. Cut into pieces you get a 2xline sensor and a 6x line sensor will analog outputs.
The Android app has been extended to show the line sensor values in digital voltage values and an analog progress bar. It is nice feature to see the sensor values in real time on the phone screen.
Sweet, I wonder if there is
Sweet, I wonder if there is an option to use Python under SL4A (scripting layer for Android). It could definitely simplify Bluetooth comms, and it is extremely simple to access sensors like accelerometers. I really like what you've done, and I think it would be great to use the phone as a WiFi camera for remote operation, whether in another room or over the net.
this looks SWEEEET
For your bumpers, what if you drilled more holes toward the front of the board and tied the zipties onto the board loosely? then they can still bump the switch.
Does the board draw power from the phone on the USB? Other way around? Neither?
Obviously the android's sensors are a huge bonus, but what advantages does Java have over Wiring /C in terms of programming / bot behavior?
How cool is that! Wonderful
How cool is that! Wonderful project.
I guess if one uses a tablet instead of the phone, there is no need for a IOIO board, as the tablets have USB host already built in. Install Processing, plug in an Arduino and talk to it directly. A cheap 5" tablet can be used perfectly, with wireless access from your phone or computer.
The USB2 host port(s) on a
The USB2 host port(s) on a tablet are designed to connect devices like keyboard, mouse, 3G dongle, etc. I had a cheap chinese tabled that I sold to get a phone that I later lost, so now I don't have anything running Android. But I had one of my µBotino boards connected to the tablet through a cheap USB-serial cable. These cables have a Prolific chip insode instead of the FTDI chip. The Prolific chip is many times found in regular computer devices so the drivers are built in the Android OS. So the only thing you actually need to do is write your own app that talks with the Arduino. I was reading on how to do it, then I decided to get a phone instead and sold the tablet. Latter I discovered that the phone does not have a USB host port and I can't do anything with that, but instead I could use the Bluetooth to connect to my µBotino. Unfortunately I lost the phone...
I like the idea of using commonly processing power such as phones for a processing unit, wjile taking advantage of its built in resources. Good work!
Great idea
You may even find it cheaper to use an android phone with all the allelerometers/compass etc rather than buying them and using from scratch. The question is, do you want to hot-glue some wheels to the bottom of your android :-)
I like your design fro bump sensors -using picroswitches and tie-wraps - ingenious !

Metro Briefing | New York: Albany: Regents Support CUNY Admissions
By Karen W. Arenson (NYT) (Compiled by Anthony Ramirez)
Published: December 13, 2002
The New York State Regents voted unanimously yesterday to allow the City University of New York to continue to use a disputed, tougher admissions policy for its bachelor's degree programs. Critics had predicted that enrollments would drop as much as half under the restrictive policy, and that black and Hispanic students would be barred disproportionately, but the State Education Department said that the impact so far had been small. The Regents called for CUNY and the Education Department to continue to monitor the policy's impact, including the question of who is being kept out of the four-year programs. Karen W.

The Queens College Office of
Global Education Initiatives (OGEI) supports the college's commitment to international
education and global engagement. As part of a network of international educators on campus, OGEI focuses on faculty, students, and curriculum to construct an educational environment that prepares students to compete in a global society. Today,
a rapidly changing global context requires that institutions of higher learning
take on the responsibility of being at the forefront in the production of new
knowledge and in the provision of an educational system that addresses the
processes of global change and their implications for human lives.
To that end, OGEI leads the college's effort to internationalize the curriculum at home and expand existing
Education Abroad and Student Exchange programs, internships abroad, and service learning programs abroad. We develop new Queens College faculty-led study
abroad courses and semester- and year-long study abroad programs with
university partners and providers. Student and faculty recruitment for our programs
is a priority at high school, undergraduate, and graduate levels. Through existing international university partners, we strengthen course offerings and research collaborations, and build scholarships. We host visits by their faculty and administrators to campus. We also create new international partnerships along with new initiatives based on faculty connections and common curricular goals.
On campus, OGEI works with the
steering committees for Queens College "Year of" programs to address
international programming needs. We recruit
faculty interested in teaching abroad, and coordinate with faculty in departments on campus regarding
curriculum design to focus on global issues. Queens College is currently developing a

sure you can buy one for cheaper than making one, but what is the fun of just buying it? I would have to say that 99% of the fun of robotics is actually building and programming them!!
on the subject of charging what about inductive charging. that way you just need to drive it over the pad and it will charge wirelessly. very inefficient though

Bathroom Window Blinds & Shades
- Moisture resistant window treatments
- Provide an adequate level of privacy
- Consider room darkening options
- Shutters are a natural fit
- Top picks are faux wood blinds, cellular shades & roller shades
While privacy is a major concern in the bathroom, blinds and shades that are able to withstand high levels of humidity are the best choice. Treatments made out of vinyl, PVC, faux wood, or thick fabric will be durable enough to stand up to the unique environment. These window treatments won't bend, warp, crack, or harvest mildew and are sure to withstand the test of time. Many bathroom shades can be configured with a top down/bottom up lift for the ultimate in flexible privacy. The slats on faux wood bathroom blinds and shutters can be tilted upwards to admit some light while still maintaining privacy.

I started a implement a FE-solver + UI in c++ as my first c++ project ( 2001 with MFC, not the best choise as a first project I have to say ).
So I had a target, motivation and a hard timeline. Then I looked into the concepts provided by c++ which seem to be the best approach and played around with it until it worked.
In my experience it is much easier to learn a new language with a real project than just reading a book. You can transfer the stuff you read into a real solution which solves a real problem. And you can lear how the toolchain works.
Hope that helps ...

Researchers Now Have a Myriad of...
Clinical-Style Validation, Regulation, and Quality Control...
Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Capitol Hill Critics Second-Guess Agencies Using...
Scientists report on a mechanical phenotyping approach to diagnosing disorders such as cancer, which involves slamming cells against a wall of fluid and effectively measuring how much they deform on impact. In addition to its potential applications in disease diagnosis, the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA)-led team that developed the technique believes it could have widespread utility for the study of cell biology in a variety of clinical and research settings.
The researchers' approach is based on an automated microfluidic-based deformability cytometry platform that they claim can image, measure, and analyze 2,000 cells per second as they are aligned toward and hit a fluid wall. Reporting in PNAS, the investigators first used the platform to detect the presence of rare metastatic cancer cells in pleural fluids. Detecting whether cancer cells are present in such samples to help diagnose metastasis is difficult using traditional cytological examination techniques because of the high density of white blood cells, and presence of other cell types such benign mesothelial cells. However, using the deformability cytometry platform the researchers were able to detect the presence of even very low numbers of malignant cells because these are much more deformable than the other cell types found in pleural effusions.
The technique was similarly able to determine states of acute and chronic inflammation by measuring the increased levels of deformability displayed by activated white blood cells. Overall, the technique was found to predict disease state in patients with cancer and immune activation with a sensitivity of 91% and a specificity of 86%.
To demonstrate the utility of the platform for applications in cell research, the researchers subsequently demonstrated its capacity to discriminate between undifferentiated human embryonic stem cells and their differentiated progeny, without the need to evaluate cell biomarkers. Essentially the undifferentiated stem cells are much more deformable than ESC-derived differentiated cells.
"This approach allows us to analyze cells at throughputs orders of magnitude faster than previously reported biophysical flow cytometers and single-cell mechanics tools," state authors Dino Di Carlo, Ph.D., and colleagues. "Microfluidic deformability cytometry brings the statistical accuracy of traditional flow cytometric techniques to label-free biophysical biomarkers, enabling applications in clinical diagnostics, stem cell characterization and single-cell biophysics."
The team reports its technique and experimental results in a paper titled "Hydrodynamic stretching of single cells for large population mechanical phenotyping."

Reviews for German Red Cabbage
"This was delicious!"
"Made this recently for company and it was really good. I made it using the food processor for cabbage, onion and apples. I did substitute apple cider vinegar as that was what I had. Served it warm as a side dish of baby back ribs along with a green salad Yummy"
"Served this at Christmas with a stuffed pork loin, was delish! Enjoyed as is..."
"Added another 1/3 cup red wine vinegar. Will use an additional apple next time."
"Next time I'll use red wine vinegar instead of white to give it extra zip!"
"I too made this with Splenda as that is what my recipe called for. The picture & all other ingredients were the same. Loved it."
"This was my first time making red cabbage, and it was fantastic. I've had it several times and substitute splenda for the sugar. It's great."
