I suspect that my filter needs a much highers LC value to get a nice and flat voltage for my electronics.Am i right or am i missing something?
The filter you're showing also doesn't put a coil on the ground wire, so perhaps there can be some leakage there.
Finally, a 7805 is a very old linear regulator. You can find other regulators with much better noise immunity, such as an LM350 or a LF50ABV.
You also want a significantly bigger capacitor in front of the regulator -- say, 100 uF electrolytic.
Another 10 uF after the regulator would also be good.
Since when was Kirchhoff's second law terminated?

You can find other regulators with much better noise immunity, such as an LM350 or a LF50ABV.LM350 is a very old regulator as well.By which parameter do you get to that conclusion? (Hint:All 3 of them have close to equal "noise immunity", although the LF50 is slightly worse than the other two).

We changed the capacitors, removed C1 and C2, C3 was chosen to be 47 uF.This way I built a pi-filter. Still i got spikes, from 5 volts down.
The addidtion of a second coil in the ground leads solved this problem.
I do not understand why the coil in the ground lead helps.That is a problem, because we want our students to built a similar filter, therefgore we must understand how it works ourselves :-)
I was thinking of common mode interference, which may end up screwing with the ground of the logic side. This assumes that wire inductance and circuit capacitance allows such problems to propagate -- for example, if you don't use a star connection to the battery. This not being the most likely source of problems, I added "perhaps." Clear enough?
I remembered the 7805 as only having 60 dB rejection. I remembered LM350 having 86 dB, and the LF50 80 dB.The 7805 (just looked it up in the data sheet) is specified with 56 dB minimum rejection and 72 dB typical: http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/lm340-n.pdfLM350 has 66 minimum and 86 dB typical, with 10 uF output capacitor: http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/lm150.pdfLF50ABV has 80 dB typical rejection: http://www.st.com/internet/com/TECHNICAL_RESOURCES/TECHNICAL_LITERATURE/DATASHEET/CD00000546.pdfSo, if you go with "typical," my recommendation still stands, but the difference is not as dramatic as I recalled.
Sometimes, you have no choice in the distance between your logic and your power source.
More is often better!
Also, the traditional advice of doubling up a ceramic with an electrolytic also makes sense, as the ceramic has much lower ESR and better high-frequency performance, and the electrolytic can provide bulk capacitance for lower frequencies (such as seen at the fundamental frequency of DC brushed motors.)
One place you have to be careful with not using too much capacitance is when inrush current matters. This turns out to be the case for motor terminal capacitance. Depending on the ratings of the motor controller, as little as 10 nF may cause a fast motor controller to detect overcurrent and go into shutdown (I had this happen with a Pololu controller for small motors.) Unconditionally putting 100 nF across the motor terminals might cause motor controller problems. My advice would be: Try it, and if it works, then keep it.
the noise from a motor is differential mode
If a motor controller flatlines over a 10nF (or even a 100nF) cap, I have only one thing to say about it: Extremely poor design.
And look at the parameters of the 7805 in a datasheet for the 7805, rather than in one for an LM340!
I really wish you'd stick to not guessing or presenting misconceptions as facts when you post
Yet, the OP reported that adding an additional inductor on the GND line solved the problem. (Exactly why this is is yet TBD -- it's quite possible that other changes, not involving the GND line, would have had the same effect.)
Yet such things are made by popular chip manufacturers and sold on popular robotics web sites.
You can call the 78xx (and LM1117 and friends) pet peeves of mine. There is no reason to use them. For low-current applications, there are more modern devices which have *much* lower drop-out (0.3V instead of 2.0V)
and for high-current applications, the LM350 does a lot more (if you heat sink it) and you should probably go with a switching DC DC converter anyway. My real goal in saying that the 7805 is old is to do my part to try to get it eliminated from all the beginner electronics designs out there. You may or may not agree with this goal.
QuoteI really wish you'd stick to not guessing or presenting misconceptions as facts when you postI have seen you rely on memory and end up being off on this very board. It's a human mistake, and I admit I'm both a human and make mistakes.
But I try to help people who post questions, with the experience I have. For electronics, that's hobbyistlevel. I appreciate whatever statements you contribute about the solutions, as in engineering, there rarely is only one workable solution.
Quote from: jwatte on December 22, 2012, 12:23:15 AMYet such things are made by popular chip manufacturers and sold on popular robotics web sites.This is just revealing a great lack of knowledge (a good reason not to answer questions in that category).People able to read and interpret the datasheet you linked to can see for themselves, that a 10nF cap is unable to kill this chip. I don't know why you insist that this is so, I can only inform you that it ain't.Based on the "typical" numbers, a 10nF cap can result in a (very short) surge of slightly below 1.76A peak
Why do you think they're still produced if LDOs were the universal solution?
And if you wanted to be true to that cause, then get rid of the old LM350 as well, it's a weakling when compared to eg. the Micrel 7.5A LDO (w. a current limit of 9.5A to 15A) regulators I use a lot.
And I'm not talking about a slip of memory, rather about your weird claims - like the 10nF that killed your motor driver.I wonder how you came to that conclusion btw. so feel free to comment!
There's a world of difference between a memory slip and spreading misinformation.

Just be happy you are having a baby shower. I am pregnant with twins and already at almost 30 weeks. And my best friend and my entire family has remained silent on the issue. No one has planned anything. I am having my first girl after two boys... And having twins after givin away all my baby stuff when my youngest was 2.
Everyone, be happy! Be grateful! It could be worse, no? :)

captive portal". You actually can run a captive portal on a Linksys Router, if its an older one that you can reflash the firmware. DD-WRT has a "hotspot" configuration that dictates a captive portal.
I've noticed some hotspots are protected on the radio link via WEP/WPA and some leave the radio link open (ie: no WEP/WPA) but rather have everyone who attaches re-directed to a webpage where you have to log in to the network inorder to be able to use the hotspot.
I have 2 questions:
1) What is it called when you have to log in via a web page? is that called "Web-redirection based authentication" and SSL? (I'm trying to research it but don't know what the correct name is )And I suppose you need a special router for that? I suppose I can't do that with my low-end Linksys router?
2) Which method is more secure? Webpage login, or WPA login? What do most public hotspots (airports, hotels, etc) employ? I think the webpage re-direct?
captive portal". You actually can run a captive portal on a Linksys Router, if its an older one that you can reflash the firmware. DD-WRT has a "hotspot" configuration that dictates a captive portal.
Thanks for the quick reply! It sounds kind of insecure, however. The only "security" is the MAC and IP address? That sounds pretty weak!
Is there a way to "beef up" the security? Can't some kind of "VPN" be established? (I found a progam called "Anchor Free Hotspot Sheild" that does this) Is that what they mean by "some providers created extended authentication mechanisms"? Or do most hotspot providers just leave the security at this level, for whatever reasons?
Most of these implementations merely require users to pass an SSL encrypted login page, after which their IP and MAC address are allowed to pass through the gateway. This has been shown to be exploitable with a simple packet sniffer. Once the IP and MAC addresses of other connecting computers are found to be authenticated, any machine can spoof the MAC address and IP of the authenticated target, and be allowed a route through the gateway. For this reason some captive portal solutions created extended authentication mechanisms to limit the risk for usurpation.

Man Accused of Creating Fake 'A' Grades For NYC Restaurants
(John Del Signore) Why bother keeping your restaurant sanitary when you can just hang a photocopy of an "A" grade from the Health Department in your window? This is allegedly what happened with nine restaurants throughout New York City that paid Anastasios Kountis hundreds of dollars to represent them at their appeal to the Office of Administrative Trials and Hearings ("OATH"). But according to investigators, in some cases Kountis never even showed up for the appeal hearing, and simply gave his clients a Xerox copy of an "A" grade, telling them everything went great.
The Department of Investigation doesn't believe the restaurant owners knew they were getting bogus "A" grades—some restaurant owners showed investigators text messages from Kountis, 32, indicating that he was delivering their legit "A" grades. In one instance, he even installed the "A" grade in a restaurant window himself, prosecutors allege. Read the full announcement here [pdf].

So i've procured a great new laptop, HP Pavilio dv5 1183cl. All the things you think you'd need. BT3 loads in under a minute from my HD install, got the RTL gigabit NIC working and compiz too. yay. except one minor problem - the wireless card is too new.
Searched the forums, found relevant posts and followed instructions from the pages google returned. ilwifi drivers are apparently in the kernel starting from 2.6.24, and you can download them for our kernel. Except they dont compile a module for the 5x series, only the prior 4x and 3x. damnit.
Has anyone gotten this to work? If so, could they post a guide or semi-comprehensive set of instructions (links to relevant downloads would be great)? Thank you
EDIT - i've got a kernel related thread above, someone wanna nuke this?

Call it the case of the baffling booze heist.
Who stole a truck containing 1,229 cases of booze from a West Valley City parking lot, drove it to Woods Cross, unloaded it in another trailer and then left it behind?
And who, police wonder, expended all that effort without partaking of a single drop of the illicit haul valued at $200,000?
Tuesday, the liquor had been reunited with its rightful owner a tractor trailer company that was hauling the booze cross-country to Florida, including a stopover in Utah, said Woods Cross police Cpl. Jason Matthews.
"It's all been returned to the owner," Matthews said.
The uncommon case started Friday night when someone decided to steal the semitruck and trailer full of booze from a West Valley City parking lot.
The thieves then apparently drove the truck to Woods Cross, where they off-loaded all 1,229 cases of liquor into their own trailer which was not registered locked it up tight and left it behind. They then abandoned the stolen truck and trailer somewhere in Salt Lake County, Matthews said.
The thieves apparently did not count on the trucking company's wily owner, who activated the semitrailer's GPS system and retraced the truck's movements. The owner then sent employees to follow the truck's trail with instructions to focus on areas where it had been stopped.
Police found the trailer on Monday, got a search warrant and found the booze inside. Every bottle was accounted for and not a drop of liquor had been drunk, Matthews said.
"We were surprised," Matthews said. "We figured there'd at least be a little missing."
The investigation into the incident continued Tuesday.
Matthews said the majority of the stolen liquor was tequila, but there were other types in the shipment as well.

Pickup crashes trying to avoid deer; Mayo man hurt
Published: Saturday, November 24, 2012 at 10:36 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, November 24, 2012 at 10:36 p.m.
A Mayo man was hospitalized with serious injuries early Saturday morning when the pickup truck in which he was a passenger crashed to avoid hitting a deer, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
Taken to Shands at Live Oak was Charles A. Williams, 31. The driver, Garrett G. Land, 26, of Mayo, had minor injuries, FHP reported in a press release.
The accident happened about 3:40 a.m. on U.S. 51 south of 136th Street in Suwannee County. Land was driving a 2006 Chevrolet Silverado south when a deer appeared in the road. Land swerved and then overcorrected. The pickup overturned and hit a fence, FHP reported.
Land was cited by FHP for leaving the scene of an accident and failing to report the crash.

Well I have been trying for a few hours so far and I am yet to succeed in booting BT4-Pre-Final.
So far I have checked the Checksums, they all match.
I have burnt at a low write speed and onto two different DVD+R's.
I have attempted to use Unetbootin to write the .iso to a portable HDD and found that it is incapable of installing a boot loader onto the Portable HDD's MBR for some reason.
So at the moment I have been able to half-boot to a Grub prompt where I am left with limited bash options and I can't seem to point it to the kernel image etc. to continue booting.
Can anyone lend me a hand in either building/writing a bootloader to my Portable HDD's MBR or can they try and shed some light on the situation?
Also, I forgot to mention but I have all ready tried it on multiple machine's it won't boot on any.
Edit: I have googled and searched the forum's sufficiently I am yet to find a working fix for any of these issues, all the same please try and shed some light.
Yes, I can boot other distributions from Live USB or CD on both machines, however BackTrack4 is a different story.
I have also had the same problem. I don't think anyone a use bt4 pre-beta on a usb flash drive and can make it bootable.
I put bt4 pre beta on a DVD. it runs, but i can install it on a usb flash (16GB).
pre doesn't has bootinst.bat
I got BT4 pre beta on a flash. (i move over root.rar) and ran bootinst.bat.
I flash can boot. BUT it load vmlinus and initrd.gz - then runs to install bt4 - then i issused STARTX. then final BT4 start. but i can save changes.
i thought i could run install.sh and put it on a 16gb flash.. thay works , but i could not boot from that flask.
I server the last 4 days trying to bring to BT4 on a flash so I could move from cpu to cpu .
I get BT4 PRE BETA has changed..
read and make in such a way like here:

Did you know?
The Red Leaf Restaurant on Beyerskloof wine estate in Stellenbosch serves a pinotage hamburger.
South Africans love their meat, so a good, juicy burger is usually always a win on any restaurant menu. While fast-food burgers are easily available at places like MacDonalds, Steers or Wimpy, there are numerous eateries that take the invention of the luxury hamburger very seriously.
There are so many variations on the traditional hamburger. From lamb patties, to ostrich burgers or grass-fed beef burgers served with traditional French fries, sweet potato chips or crisp, organic onion rings. The list really is endless, and visitors are spoilt for choice. When visiting Johannesburg or Cape Town, visit Beefcakes Burger Bar and order a chilli vodka burger (complete with jalapeno chillis and a vodka salsa) or the gourmet burger that has camembert and cranberry jelly as well as a choice of patties.
In Cape Town, at Gourmet Burger in Cavendish Square in Claremont and Long Street in the city centre, you can enjoy the lamb and feta cheese burger or opt for the aubergine and goat's cheese burger (vegetarian). The Dog's Bollocks, off Buitenkant Street, is a hole-in-the-wall eatery that sells great burgers on a first-come, first-served basis each evening. Be warned, though, their burgers sell out quickly. Try the pepperberry blue (blue cheese and pepper burger) and you'll be coming back for more. Bistro Sixteen 82 at Steenberg in Constantia Valley offers a delicious Steenburger served with truffle aioli (a type of French mayonnaise), which is legendary as is the cheese burger at Clarke's on Bree Street.
In Johannesburg, you'll find that a number of steakhouses make excellent burgers, too. Try The Local Grill, the Grillhouse, and the Thunder Gun steakhouse. The Gourmet Garage in Sandton is a place where burger aficionados hang out. Here you can enjoy burgers you won't find elsewhere such as the monkeygland, peanut butter or peppadew burger (peppadews are South African sweet piquanté peppers). There is also a Gourmet Garage in the Montecasino entertainment complex in Fourways.
Dukes is a restaurant in the popular area of Greenside that offers a wide range of burgers including a few delicious vegetarian options. Fire and Ice Hotel in Melrose is known for its Jawbreaker burger. A little further afield, Pretoria's favourite burger spots include Ed's Diner where the Baconator (with bacon of course) and the Hand Stand (with lots of chilli) are winners.
Another sure bet for a great burger is the family friendly Spur group of steakhouses which are located throughout South Africa.

Best time to visit
The opening times for each restaurant differ, so it's a good idea to make a booking beforehand. A number of restaurants are also closed on Sundays and/or Mondays. Kitchens also close at around 9pm so ensure you arrive in good time.
Around the area
If you're visiting the Montecasino Complex in Johannesburg, make time to visit the beautiful bird gardens that form part of this entertainment complex.
Tours to do
If you're visiting Johannesburg and can get a small group of people together, you may want to book a beef appreciation evening at The Local Grill steakhouse.
Get around
Having your own car means more flexibility.
What will it cost
An average main course will cost in the region of R80. Some restaurants charge for all the extras (chips, onion rings etc). Check the menu.
Where to stay
There are literally thousands of accommodation options in both Johannesburg and Cape Town. In Johannesburg you could stay at The Palazzo at Montecasino, part of the same entertainment complex where you will find the Gourmet Garage. In Cape Town there is a wide variety of accommodation available, a popular choice is the Fire and Ice Hotel (the hotel restaurant is known to serve a mean burger or two).
What to eat
Burgers, burgers and more burgers. If you haven't had a lamb burger before, it's worth a try and South African lamb is exceptionally good.

How is this calculated?
As you'll see from the link in the pound for pound section, Chris Weidman has just moved down to #10 after beating Anderson Silva and Dominick Cruz who's not fought for 2 years has moved up??
Josh Thomson just knocks out a ranked Nate Diaz and moves down to be replaced by Gray Maynard who got destroyed by a ranked guy?

We're finally six months away from the release of the Farrelly Brothers' big-screen Three Stooges. While we've known about the casting of the Stooges in question for a while now -- Chris Diamantopoulos is Moe, Sean Hayes is Larry, and Will Sasso is Curly -- we haven't gotten a clear look at the trio yet.
Until today...
Well, they certainly look the part. But, do audiences really want to see the Three Stooges on the big screen in 2012?
I'm torn on it myself. As a movie, I don't really care to see it, but I'm still excited for it because, let's be honest, I'll have a whole new world of "Mo/Moe" lines to steal from the movie!
Are you excited for this movie? Is this a remake to look forward to?

What are the duties of phosphorus in the body?
How does the alarm system work that sets off when the phosphorus level in the body decreases?
What kind of precautions are taken by the body when this alarm sets off?
Understanding and appreciating the wonder in a certain structure or an artifact requires getting detailed information and thinking deeply about it.
This situation is the same for the human body which has many wonderful properties. If humans do not learn these details and think about them deeply, they cannot notice the miracles they live side by side at every moment. However, many extraordinary things occur in the human body, whether it's when he's afraid from a car while crossing the street, when he gets the flu, when his blood pressure rises, or when he comes across a friend and greets him. In seconds or milliseconds, the molecules which can not be seen by the human eye works like bees inside the human body and accomplishes very complicated things that need high levels of expertise that even the related person cannot understand or comprehend. A very precious raw material performs an enormous task like this in our cells. This raw material is phosphorus. Many awe inspiring systems are created in the cell for finding, eradicating, moving, processing and storing phosphorus. Each one of these systems is required by the body for the continuation of our survival.
Awe inspiring Duties of Phosphorus in the body
Phosphorus, which composes of 3 percent of the dry weight of living beings, has many duties for defending the vital processes of the cell.1
It is the basic constituent of the DNA, which is the memory bank of the cell and the RNA.
It can be found in fats, proteins, and sugars.2
The whole energy circle of the cell depends on this material.
Takes the role in the production of letters which constitutes Membranes and information.
Used in photosynthesis, respiration, and in the control of many enzymes.3
The operation of entering and using of phosphorus in the cell is under the control of a detailed process.
Indefinite amount of enzymes combine the phosphorus with other atoms under their control, to produce certain compounds for the cell.4
Stored Phosphorus
In order to get them quickly, humans store certain materials they see as essential in the depots they hire and they put their important equipment in them. Phosphorus is used by bacteria in a similar system. 85 percent of the phosphorus is stored in the bones as phosphate chains.5 Bacteria use these stores when the need arises. However, the phosphate chain is not a store molecule. Scientists found that the phosphate chain has an essential role in the cells for some controlling actions.6
How does the alarm system works?
In the bacteria, if the phosphate levels decrease under a certain level, an alarm bells starts to ring. An enormous system begins to take emergency measures. In implementing these emergency measures, many genes help each other to get rid of the danger which threaten the cell. Like the fire alarm when a fire occurs, a special kind of molecule goes into a state of emergency after the phospate levels decrease under a certain level. This Protein is named PhoR, it transmits this emergency information to a second protein. The protein named PHoB acts immediately like it understand the danger and starts the emergency measures. To achieve this, it increases or stops the production of some genes in the DNA.7 It is a natural truth that molecules cannot do these things which needs intelligence to achieve. Allah inspires in these molecules what to do, how to do it and when to do it. Allah states that every being acts with His inspiration,
I have put my trust in Allah, my Lord and your Lord. There is no creature He does not hold by the forelock. My Lord is on a Straight Path. (Surah Hud, 56)
What kind of precautions are taken for low phosphorus levels?
Bacteria take very extreme measures to prevent the situation of low phosphorus. Only one of these systems is enough to show how degenerate the theory of evolution is, which only believes in coincidences. Some bacteria change their shape with the decrease of phosphorus levels. In that way, they change the ratio between their surfaces and volumes to get in touch more with the external environment so they can provide phosphate more easily.8
Conscious change in the production system is another smart method. Phosphate rich compounds, which can be find on the cell wall, exchange with alternative materials which do not have phosphate in them. Use of this method by a small bacteria in a perfect manner is a formidable thing. These superior properties manifesting on the bacteria, are some of the manifestations of Allah's superior power.
Some bacteria spread certain chemicals to the environment when the amount of phosphate decreases. These chemicals help in ripping out phosphate from the compounds in the environment.9
One of the precautions taken in the body when the phosphate in the environment decreases is by increasing the production of the gates which the phosphate enters to the cell.10 This increase makes the phosphate entering the cell more easily.
Researchers on bacteria show that about 400 genes become active when the phosphate levels decrease.11 Scientists calculate the number of genes that are activated amounts to 10 percent of the bacteria gene. Although all of the details of the system is still not known, the things researchers discovered shows just how the human body is created in a superior creation.
The system of phosphorus supply is one of the examples that proves that it is impossible for living things to develop in stages. Only one error in one of these genes can impede the system to fullfill its duty.
This kind of living being, which would not have fully developed systems, cannot grow. It will just die. Finding out how these systems work is generally based on this principle. Some of the genes in a perfectly functioning system mutated and the duty of these genes can be established by looking at deaths and malfunctions resulting from this mutation. Absence of one of the parts that we examined above will result in the death of the living being. Like the other environmental circumstances, the absence of phosphate results in death. Each one of these systems refutes evolution and proves Creation. All the systems of providing phosphate in the bacteria is just one example from Allah's unequalled art of creation. Allah states this fact in one of the verses of the Qur'an like this:
Say: 'Have you thought about your partner gods, those you call upon besides Allah? Show Me what they have created of the earth; or do they have a partnership in the heavens?' Have We given them a Book whose clear signs they follow? No indeed! The wrongdoers promise each other nothing but delusion. (Surah Fatir, 40)

Burger King Goes Canadian With $11B Tim Hortons Buy
Get the latest news from 24/7 News on iHeartRadio
(NEWSER) – Burger King is confirming an $11 billion buy of Canada's iconic Tim Hortons coffee chain that will create Earth's third-biggest fast-food company and settle its headquarters in Canada—where corporate tax rates are conveniently around 26%, compared to a basic rate of 35% in the US.
The merger looks like a "tax inversion" play, an analyst tells the CBC, explaining that when an American firm merges with a Canadian one, it can sometimes "technically set up [its] headquarters in Canada, even though you still keep everybody in the United States. It's almost like a mailing address more than anything else."
Burger King will still run its business from Miami, notes the AP.

Orem • Zac Dawe walked off the mat after knocking his opponent down with a quick, calculated move and then forcing a pair of unwilling shoulder blades to the ground.
Dawe breathed easy, had hardly broken a sweat. In total Wednesday, the Pleasant Grove junior had wrestled for just 2 minutes and 5 seconds barely longer than a full period en route to a pair of first-round pins and a semifinal berth.
But the junior, a favorite to win both an individual championship at 285 pounds and a team championship, isn't taking anything for granted.
"I just have to come in here and wrestle my guts out," Dawe said. "Everyone is starting over 0-0. Rankings don't mean anything. I have to prove it."
The Vikings will enter the final day of wrestling Thursday with 128 points, a 25-point cushion over second-place Layton, thanks to solid wrestling from its roster's top to bottom.
Benjamin Anderson, wrestling at 106 pounds, won his first match by pin in just 25 seconds. He followed it up with a 15-2 major decision in the quarterfinals.
The 113-pound Kyson Levin, looking to repeat his championship run of a year ago, won twice by technical fall.
Viking Landon Gates writhed on the ground early in his match after being hit in the eye, but rebounded to pin Taylorsville's Victor Samaniego.
"We just gotta keep it up, stay aggressive," Gates said after the victory. "We've worked so hard this year, we really deserve it."
Pleasant Grove wrestlers pointed to their coach, Brock Moore, as a big reason the team has a chance to win a third straight championship.
With 40 seconds left and his wrestler trailing by two in one quarter final, Moore told T.J. Wind exactly what he needed for a victory.
"Escape and a take-down," the coach called out.
Wind responded with exactly that, earning yet another Viking victory.
"We've worked our guts out for this," Dawe said.
But there are plenty of challengers waiting in the wings.
Individually, Alta's Matt Findlay, wrestling in the 126-pound weight class, won twice by decision and will have a shot at a third state championship.
West's Will Lang, a year removed from a fourth-place finish as a freshman, said he feels stronger and better prepared. His eyes are on a championship.
"Last year, I won quite a few matches because I had a lot of determination," he said. "But now, against some of the better kids, I'm able to out-finesse them."
And while Zane Rich's Syracuse Titans trail Pleasant Grove after one day, the 138-pounder still feels confident.
"They're a tough team," Rich said after pinning a Pleasant Grove wrestler in 1:38. "But we're tough too. I believe we can come from behind and get this championship."

FAQs – our company
Has your question not been answered? Feel free to contact us Expand all Collapse all
What airports does Heathrow own?
As of December 2014 we only own Heathrow Airport.
How is Heathrow regulated?
We comply with strict regulations set by the Department for Transport governing many aspects of our operation. The price we charge airlines is set by the Civil Aviation Authority.
What is Heathrow's view on regional airports?
Regional airports will continue to grow in coming years, offering more choice to more people. This is good for the economy, as it spreads the wealth generated by airports around the country.
How can aviation as a whole reduce its environmental impact?
We think the best way to do this is through emissions trading. Companies have limits set on their overall emissions; if they exceed their limit they need to buy surplus from other companies. Industries which cut their emissions can sell their surplus on.
Should the airline industry pay a 'green tax'?
Passengers already pay Air Passenger Duty, which is a straightforward tax designed to reduce demand. But it does little to reduce emissions or encourage aviation companies to adopt more sustainable practices. Emissions trading offers the best solution.
What is Heathrow's position on night flights?
We understand that there's a fine balance between the economic benefits of early morning flights and the disruption it can cause to local residents. The number of flights we are able to operate is strictly controlled by the Department for Transport.
Are our airports safe from terrorism?
Security is our number one priority and our systems and staff are among the best in the world. Of course, we can't say that air travel is 100% risk-free but we are working together with many organisations to keep air travel safe. There's a huge amount of work that goes on behind the scenes to keep everyone safe at all times.
Why is Heathrow involved in retail?
Retail is a key part of our business activities. The money we make from retail subsidises the landing fees we charge to airlines. In turn, this has created a thriving airline business and gives passengers more choice.
If you had fewer shops, could you manage more flights?
The biggest constraints on the number of flights are runway space and aircraft parking bays. The number of shops has little impact on the number of flights running.
Can I view or order photographs/videos of the airport?
Heathrow's Photo Library and Video Library feature airport and aviation photography and video which is available for purchase for a negotiated fee.
Who do I contact about aircraft noise?
Each of our airports has a dedicated noise enquiry telephone number. You'll find it on the Contact Us page of Heathrow Airport website.
Who do I contact about sponsorship (community projects etc)?
You'll find our corporate responsibility contacts on the Contact Us page of Heathrow Airport website.
What is the current airport tax imposed on passengers?
Airport tax is called Air Passenger Duty (APD) and is imposed on passengers by the government. Heathrow is not involved in levying or collecting this tax. It is paid when passengers book their ticket with the airline, and collected by the Government once the journey has taken place.
There are different rates of APD depending on the ticket types and journey type (EU/non-EU). For further information see the HM Revenue & Customs website. Taxes and charges are explained by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) website.
For information on airport charges, which are imposed by Heathrow on airlines (not a tax), please see our regulation information page.

Firefighters battled a brush fire on San Bernardino's Westside this afternoon that spread from a mobile home park, where it damaged the attic of one unit before jumping across the street to a grass-covered lot on the corner of Macy and Mill streets.
Flames also destroyed three shed structures, fire officials said.
The fire was reported at 11:22 a.m. in the 400 block of South Macy Street, San Bernardino city fire dispatchers said.
San Bernardino City Fire Capt./PIO Kevinn Whitaker called the incident a multi-threat fire because the wind-driven flames, along with the heat, was burning near two rows of mobile homes that backed up to a row of trees.
"The flames were 100-feet in length," Whitaker said.
The fire, responded to by 25 units, was under control by 12:30 and mop-up continued past 2 p.m.
Fire officials had reported via Twitter that a "major alarm fire" broke out in a mobile home park, burning multiple structures.

Information for Patients
Arm Injuries and Disorders
Of the 206 bones in your body, 3 of them are in your arm; the humerus, radius and ulna. Your arms are also made up of muscles, joints, tendons and other connective tissue. Injuries to any of these parts of the arm can occur during sports, a fall or an accident.
Types of arm injuries include
- Tendinitis and bursitis
- Sprains
- Dislocations
- Broken bones
Some nerve problems, arthritis, or cancers can affect the entire arm and cause pain, spasms, swelling and trouble moving. You may also have problems or injure specific parts of your arm, such as your hand, wrist, elbow or shoulder.
- Arm CT scan
- Brachial plexopathy
- Radial head fracture - aftercare
- Radial nerve dysfunction

Shoulder Injuries and Disorders
Your shoulder joint is composed of three bones: the clavicle (collarbone), the scapula (shoulder blade), and the humerus (upper arm bone). Your shoulders are the most movable joints in your body. They can also be unstable because the ball of the upper arm is larger than the shoulder socket that holds it. To remain in a stable or normal position, the shoulder must be anchored by muscles, tendons and ligaments. Because the shoulder can be unstable, it is the site of many common problems. They include sprains, strains, dislocations, separations, tendinitis, bursitis, torn rotator cuffs, frozen shoulder, fractures and arthritis.
Usually shoulder problems are treated with RICE. This stands for Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation. Other treatments include exercise, medicines to reduce pain and swelling, and surgery if other treatments don't work.

Vascular Diseases
The vascular system is the body's network of blood vessels. It includes the arteries, veins and capillaries that carry blood to and from the heart. Problems of the vascular system are common and can be serious. Arteries can become thick and stiff, a problem called atherosclerosis. Blood clots can clog vessels and block blood flow to the heart or brain. Weakened blood vessels can burst, causing bleeding inside the body.
You are more likely to have vascular disease as you get older. Other factors that make vascular disease more likely include
- Family history of vascular or heart diseases
- Pregnancy
- Illness or injury
- Long periods of sitting or standing still
- Any condition that affects the heart and blood vessels, such as diabetes or high cholesterol
- Smoking
- Obesity
Losing weight, eating healthy foods, being active and not smoking can help vascular disease. Other treatments include medicines and surgery.
- Aortic arch syndrome
- Arterial embolism
- Arteriogram
- Cerebral angiography
- Duplex ultrasound
- Venous insufficiency
- Venous ulcers -- self-care

Center of Biomedical Research Excellence in Women's Health
The University of Kentucky has been awarded $10,365,000 from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to support a Center of Biomedical Research Excellence (COBRE) in Women's Health. This is the largest single grant ever awarded in the area of Women's Health to the University of Kentucky. This five-year NIH grant is sponsored by the National Center for Research Resources (NCRR). The present award represents a competitive renewal of the COBRE in Women's Health which was initially funded from 2000-2005.
The two primary goals of the COBRE in Women's Health are:
further our understanding of the unique role of gender and female reproductive hormones in the manifestation of health and disease and
use this focus as a platform to develop promising junior investigators and enhance their success at competing for NIH grant support.
A unique strength of the COBRE in Women's Health is the multidisciplinary approach to investigate the impact of hormones and gender on five specific areas: heart disease, brain function, HIV, reproductive tract physiology, and behavior. Each of these five areas will be explored by a team of investigators. These teams bring together 21 faculty with diverse interests and research backgrounds from the Colleges of Medicine and Allied Health highlighting the true multidisciplinary approach of the COBRE program to further our understanding of the role of hormones and gender in key areas of Women's health.
An overview of the COBRE program and projects is presented below.

Hearing Loss & Hearing Aids
Did you know that in the United States alone there is an estimated 36 million people with hearing loss? If left untreated, hearing loss can result in communication difficulties, which research has shown can lead to isolation, depression, increased anxiety, and other physical and emotional health problems. Determining if you are ready for a hearing aid and which hearing aid you should purchase can be a very daunting task. Educating yourself about the products, the costs, and the process of obtaining hearing aids is the best first step.
How do I know if I need a hearing aid?
There are many signs that you or a loved one may notice that could indicate difficulty hearing. The first step in determining whether you have a hearing loss and may need a hearing aid is to have a hearing evaluation. State law requires that you have a hearing test within 6 months before purchasing hearing aids. If it is determined that you have hearing loss and your physician has determined that your hearing loss cannot be treated by medical or surgical intervention, hearing aids may be an option for you.
A hearing aid evaluation lasts approximately one hour and is an opportunity for you and your audiologist to work together to determine which hearing aid is right for you. There are certain questions that you should be sure to ask your audiologist during the initial hearing aid evaluation visit. During this visit, realistic expectations, styles of hearing aids, features of hearing aids, cost of hearing aids, and your listening needs will be discussed.
What are the different styles & special features of hearing aids?
There are many different styles of hearing aids to choose from. Determining which style is best for you depends on multiple factors. These include: type and severity of hearing loss, visual and dexterity abilities, cosmetic concerns, what features and controls are needed, and size and shape of ear.
When traditional hearing aids are not an option, there are a few special hearing aids that may be a more appropriate fit. CROS or Bi-CROS hearing aids are used for those with single sided-deafness. BAHA is a surgically implanted device that may be an option for people with conductive hearing loss, mixed hearing loss or single sided deafness.
Hearing aid technology has advanced enough to offer many options to hearing aid users. By understanding your daily communication problems and the typical environments you find yourself in, your audiologist can recommend an appropriate level of technology and optional features. These special features can help to optimize hearing in your most adverse listening situations.
What is the cost of a hearing aid?
Hearing aids cost between $2000 – $6000 to $1800 – $5900 a pair. Medicare does not cover any costs associated with hearing aids. Most insurance companies follow Medicare guidelines. Some insurance companies will reimburse you directly for part of the cost of the hearing aids. You are encouraged to call the number on the back of your insurance card to find out if you have a hearing aid benefit.
The Jefferson Balance and Hearing Center offers a 30-day trial period with new hearing aids. If at the end of the trial period you are not satisfied, you may apply your down-payment to another pair of hearing aids or, if you would like, you may return the hearing aids and your money will be refunded to you, minus a small fitting fee.
Follow-up Care & Office Visits
At the Jefferson Balance and Hearing Center follow-up visits are covered in the cost of the hearing aids for the duration of your warranty period. You will have a minimum of four visits with your audiologist. The first visit, the hearing aid evaluation, will be to assess if you would benefit from hearing aids and allows you and your audiologist to decide what is best for your lifestyle. At your second visit, you will be fit with your hearing aid selection and you will learn how to use and care for them. During your 30-day trial period, you will visit with your audiologist twice to check your progress and make any necessary adjustments.
If you did not purchase your hearing aids through the Jefferson Balance and Hearing Center but would like to have your hearing aids serviced, please schedule an appointment with an audiologist by calling 1-800-JEFF-NOW to discuss your options for repair or reprogramming.
Feedback is the audible "whistling" or "squealing" sound sometimes emitted from a hearing aid. Amplified sound from a hearing aid can leak out of the ear from the area between the ear and the hearing aid or through the vent. This already amplified sound is picked up by the hearing aid microphones and the process begins again. The already amplified sound is amplified again on its second time through the hearing aid and the cycle continues. This is called the feedback loop and the process can result in a squealing or whistling sound. If you should have problems with feedback, please contact your audiologist.
Other Considerations
- Hearing Aids are not a cure for hearing loss. They can be extremely helpful in many situations, but even the best technology does not equal perfect hearing. Your audiologist may recommend an assistive listening device (ALD) in addition to hearing aids to help in situations where a hearing aid is not enough.
- You will need to practice understanding sounds and speech. It typically takes individuals with a hearing loss seven years to seek help, and during that time the pathways to the brain do not get full auditory (sound) stimulation. Your audiologist may even assign you exercises to do at home to practice.
- Hearing aids are an investment. You will need to treat them like the expensive electronics that they are. They should not be stored in a warm, damp place like the bathroom or be exposed to chemicals like hair spray. Follow the cleaning routine that your audiologist sets out for you.
- You will need to replace your hearing aids after some time. Currently, hearing aids function with minimal need for repair for three to seven years, depending on the type of hearing aid. Even with careful cleaning, parts can wear out on a hearing aid. Often when hearing aids reach the end of this time window, the cost of repairing them is no longer practical.
- Remember that the audiologist is your partner in better hearing. Bringing a spouse, family member or friend to your appointment is always encouraged.
Difficulty Hearing?
- Do you hear, but not understand, what is being said?
- Does it sound like people are mumbling?
- Do you have trouble hearing the television or radio, or do family members complain that the TV or radio is too loud?
- Do you often ask people to repeat what they've said?
- Do you have difficulty understanding what is being said on television?
- Do you find it difficult to hear people speak or follow conversation in a noisy environment, such as a restaurant or party?
- Do you have difficulty understanding women or children?
If you answered yes to any or all of these questions, you should have a full hearing evaluation.
Styles of Hearing Aids
Behind-the-ear (BTE) aids consist of a small plastic case worn behind the ear. The circuitry of the hearing aid is housed in this plastic case, which is connected by a clear tube to an earmold. The earmold is a custom-fit piece that delivers sound into your ear. Some advantages to this style include increased power for more severe losses, decreased whistling (feedback) in some cases and less of hearing aid damage for those with excessive earwax or drainage from the ear.
Open-fit BTE aids are similar to the traditional BTE aids in that the plastic case rests behind the ear. The main difference with this style is that instead of a custom earmold, a thin tube connects to a small dome that fits in the ear. This type of hearing aid may be appropriate for those with normal hearing at some pitches, but hearing loss at other pitches. It may allow you to utilize some of your natural, normal hearing while amplifying only those pitches where you have hearing loss. This may reduce the perception of feeling 'plugged up'.
In-the-ear (ITE) hearing aids are custom made and fit entirely in your outer ear. All of the hearing aid circuitry is contained inside this one-piece, which fills the bowl of the outer ear. While these aids can be smaller than BTEs, they can usually fit many of the features, such as volume control, directional microphones, and telecoil, to name a few. The sizes of these aids however, can limit their power output and therefore are not appropriate for severe to profound hearing loss.
Canal hearing aids are the smallest custom-fit hearing aids. In-the-canal (ITC) aids fill the entire ear canal, while completely-in-the-canal (CIC) aids are even smaller and sit further down in the canal where they are almost hidden. This style has many cosmetic advantages due to their small size. However, they may be limited to how many special features can be added due to their small size.
CROS & Bi-CROS Hearing Aids
A CROS hearing aid system is appropriate for a specific group of people seeking hearing aids. You may be a candidate for a CROS hearing aid system if you have hearing loss on one side that is so severe it cannot be aided by a traditional hearing aid and have normal hearing, or at most a mild high-frequency hearing loss, in the other ear. This is usually referred to as single-sided deafness. A CROS aid system consists of two devices, one worn on each ear. The device on the ear with hearing loss consists of a microphone to pick up sounds from that side and a transmitter. The transmitter wirelessly sends the signal to the device on the better, normal hearing ear. The sounds are not amplified, they are simply sent to the better hearing ear. It should be noted that the device on the better, normal hearing ear is typically an open fit, so that this ear is not "plugged up."
A BICROS system is similar to a CROS system, but is for people who have severe, unaidable hearing loss in one ear and aidable hearing loss in the other ear. BICROS aid systems are similar to a CROS system in that a device is worn on both ears. The poorer-hearing ear wears a device with a microphone and transmitter for sending sound to the better hearing ear. The distinguishing feature of a BICROS system is that the better hearing ear not only receives signals from the poor side, but it also amplifies those signals along with amplifying signals on the side of the better-hearing ear. It is essentially a hearing aid that also receives signals from the poorer-hearing side.
BAHA is a surgically placed device that can be beneficial to people for whom a traditional hearing aid may not be appropriate. Someone with single-sided deafness, a mixed hearing loss, or a conductive hearing loss may be a candidate for this type of hearing aid.
The BAHA works by sending sound directly through the bones of the skull. A sound processor is attached to a titanium screw that is surgically implanted in the temporal bone. Sound is picked up by the processor which in turn sends auditory vibrations to the screw. The sound will travel through the bones of the skull and cause vibrations of the fluids in the inner ear. These inner ear vibrations are then transmitted via neural impulses and are perceived as sound. This process allows sound to bypass the outer ear and middle ear, which is why this device usually works well for those with conductive hearing loss. In the case of those with single-sided deafness, the vibrations of the skull are picked up by both inner ears (cochleas) and therefore allow sound to bypass the poorly-functioning cochlea and be picked up by the functioning cochlea. In the case of single-sided deafness, this does not return hearing on the deaf side, instead the screw and processor are placed on the poorer-hearing side and sound is sent through bone conduction to the better hearing cochlea. This may allow the user to listen to conversation on their poor side without turning the head.
More information on the BAHA can be found at: products.cochlearamericas.com/baha
Special Features
Directional Microphones are special microphone arrays that may be helpful to individuals that have difficulty hearing speech in noise. Directional microphones work by reducing background noise and may allow the user to communicate in the presence of noise.
Telecoil (T-coil) or Auto-phone features are special hearing aid programs that work to deliver a clearer signal to the hearing aid user when using landline telephones. A t-coil may also be used to listen through some assistive listening devices (ALDs), whether at home or in public areas.
Volume Controls are manually manipulated by the user to increase or decrease the level of amplification from the hearing aids as needed.
Environmental Programs/Memories are available in some hearing aid models. These programs/memories can be tailored specifically for use in a variety of listening environments. For example, if someone frequently finds themselves in a noisy situation, their audiologist may create a program designed for use in that particular environment. Some hearing aids will require the user to manually press a button to access multiple programs, but others can make some adjustments automatically.
Bluetooth compatibility is a feature that some newer models of hearing aids are offering. This feature is applicable to electronic devices that are compatible with Bluetooth technology. Mobile phones, televisions, or personal audio devices can be paired with hearing aids to provide the user with an improved and more convenient listening experience.
Hearing Aid Evaluation
A hearing aid evaluation is a no-charge, informational session with an audiologist. The goal of this session is to determine what hearing aids may be appropriate for you and your hearing loss. It is approximately an hour long session and will address most, if not all, of the following:
- Educating you on your hearing loss and what that means for the use of hearing aids.
- Discussing the situations in which you have difficulty hearing. Do you have more difficulty with certain people? Certain environmental sounds? Certain places?
- Styles of hearing aids and the pros and cons of each for your particular hearing loss.
- Levels of technology and the features available on the hearing aids. This goes hand-in-hand with talking about your lifestyle and how you typically spend your day. By learning what sort of sound environments you encounter, the audiologist can make a better recommendation for hearing aid levels and features.
- Cost of hearing aids, what this cost includes, and the payment process.
There may be an opportunity to have a pair of hearing aids demonstrated on you in the office. This excludes any custom hearing aids and is completely dependent on what hearing aids are in stock in the office. If you choose to order a model that requires a custom fit, an impression of your ear will be taken on this visit.
Hearing Aid Delivery
Approximately two weeks after you order your hearing aids, you will return for a hearing aid delivery. This is approximately a one hour appointment where the following will occur:
- The hearing aid is attached to the office computer and your audiologist will fine- tune the sound of the hearing aids based on your perception of how the aids sound.
- You will learn how to insert the hearing aids and remove them from your ears.
- You will learn how to change the battery, how often it should be changed, what kind of batteries you will need, and where to get them.
- You will learn how to clean and care for the hearing aids.
- The audiologist will answer any of your questions and make sure that you are comfortable going home with the hearing aids for the first time.

Switchback performs well!!!
I really like this bow. Performance this weekend was out standing.
It's still bow season here in OK., the late season. I have already taken two does at approx. 20 yrds with my Switchback, so this weekend I was out trying to tag a good buck. Well about 8:30 am I see a big bodied deer coming through the oaks. The second rut is in and he is searching. I look at his rack and it's not impressive at all, he's a spike rack on a 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 yr. old deer. One spike is 12" and the other is about 2" I was going to let him walk but then I thought about him passing on his poor genetics. Decided to take him. He was coming to me and at about 50 yrds he turns and is walking parallel to me. I see an opening he will cross, I range a nearby tree and it reads 50 yrds. He hits the opening and pauses standing broadside. There is no wind on this cold morning. I am at full draw, settle my pin on his chest and release. The arrow is a dot going away from me then I hear a whack. He turns and runs and I hear him hit the barb wire fence and then I can hear him running through the leaves.......then silence.
Gave it about 30 min. then went to where the deer was standing. During my wait I started thinking about the shot and the whack.....I've never heard the whack before. I started to doubt myself and the shot. I have practiced relentlessly at shots greater than this distance just so I would be able to make a long distance shot if needed. 50 yrds was my max distance. I knew the bow performance was capable of making this shot and indeed it did. There stuck in the ground was my arrow covered from tip to fletch covered with bright red blood. A complete pass through and the arrow was stuck in the dirt about 4". 70 yrds later after following a great blood trail I found my buck. Double lung shot, about 2" back from the shoulder and about mid line of the body.
This bow is so easy to shoot. I have it set up at 67-68# with a 29.5" draw. I shoot GT pro's. Total arrow wt. is 398 gn. with a mechanical head. I've chrono'ed it at about 278-281 fps. The bow was so quiet and shooting lasers that the deer didn't know what hit him. I would not have attmepted this shot with my bows from the past but the Switchback is.......well, awsome is all I can think to say.
Hi OK,
Congrats on the successful hunt!! The Switchback is very good bow, and it's good to have confidence in your equipment out in the field.
How about some meat? I don't need much......the back-straps will do! j/k
Now you have to post some pics!
Good shooting!No bashing.......Violators will be shot.......Survivors will be prosecuted.
