Toby Gerhart: "You want to go in the first round, but I'm perfectly happy with where I'm at and I'm excited to get to Minnesota
April 26, 2010 – 7:50 am by Michael BeanStanford running back Toby Gerhart is a Minnesota Viking after being selected as the 51st overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft. Gerhart, who came in second in the Heisman Trophy voting for his outstanding season for the Cardinal last fall, was the fifth running back selected in the draft. He'll join All World 'back Adrian Peterson in Minnesota's backfield and provide a bruising downhill running style to compliment Peterson's versatile game. With Chester Taylor no longer in Minneapolis, it's safe to assume that Gerhart should receive a decent number of carries in 2010, as the Vikings try to keep AP injury-free and explosive throughout the grind of a long NFL season.
Gerhart joined Into the Night with Tony Bruno after being drafted on Friday to talk about wanting to be drafted in the first round but ultimately content winding up in Minnesota, how it made him feel good that the Vikings traded up in the second round to draft him, how he tries to not pay attention to the belief that his draft stock fell a bit because he's a white running back, how he hopes his childhood idol Brett Favre will return next year, and how he's still got to concentrate on graduating from Stanford before he moves up to Minneapolis this summer.
On if he was disappointed to not have been drafted in the 1st round:
"You know, in the back of my mind I was hoping to go in the first round. My agent told me to expect to go in the second, that it was unlikely but that there was a slim chance I would go in the first. So we sat there and watched it. You know, you want to go in the first round, but I'm perfectly happy with where I'm at and I'm excited to get to Minnesota."
On if it made him feel good that Minnesota traded up in the 2nd round to draft him:
"Oh yeah, it made me feel really good. It's kind of funny because we were sitting there, we knew there was a chance Houston could take me, so we were kind of sitting there waiting for a phone call. And my phone starts ringing and everybody's like Houston's calling, they're calling! And I answered and it's Rick Spielman from the Vikings. And he was like 'hello, it's Rick Spielman from the Vikings.' And he was like, 'are you tired of waiting to get drafted?' And I was like 'yeah.' And he said, 'well we're going to take you, we just traded up with Houston.' And sure enough it comes up across the T.V. that they traded picks and they took me. It was just an unbelievable moment and a dream come true for me."
On the whole notion that NFL teams aren't interested in white running backs:
"No, not really. I try not to pay attention to that. I think in the last couple days right here before the draft, it kind of got blown way out of proportion. Like I've always said all along, I'm a running back, it's the position I play, the whole race thing is not an issue, and hopefully I just continue to get seen as a running back, and keep playing as a running back and do great things for the Minnesota Vikings."
On if he's gotten a phone call from Brett Favre and if not, if he plans to be the guy who calls Favre to prod him to committing to returning for the 2010 season:
"If he calls me, I'll definitely get on him to get out there. He was my childhood idol, and never in my wildest dreams would I think I would take a hand off or catch a pass from him. So I hope he comes back, he's a huge part of the team, and he comes back and helps us win a Super Bowl this year."

RCRadio Wiki - Please contribute!
Just started a basic radio wiki (basic for now). The main goal of this user collaborative wiki is to gain a visual walk-though for RC radios.
This started due to seeing the nice radios for sale, however not being able to see a visual graphical user interface tour. I'm very visual and like to see how something programs before I buy. But other useful links are great to add for each radio. So, please help by adding your radio, links, tips, mods, VIDEO of how it programs, etc. This is not for a full-on "how to setup crazy mixes", but just basic navigation. "A feel of interface". So don't be afraid because you don't know everything about your radio (look at my easy vids eg.) Doesn't have to be perfect, as others will come and clean up/add/edit. RCRadio Wiki Thanks! |

Home > Wellness > Health Library > Glucagon
Glucagon is a hormone produced by the pancreas that causes the liver to release its stored sugar into the bloodstream. Glucagon is also available as a prescription medicine that comes in prefilled vials and syringes and works in the same way as the natural hormone.
People with diabetes or hypoglycemia sometimes develop very low blood sugar levels. If a person has a very low blood sugar level and is unconscious, or if the person cannot or will not drink or eat something containing sugar, he or she needs a glucagon shot.
Instructions for how to give a glucagon shot should be kept with the medicine. The expiration date should be checked often, as most glucagon kits need to be replaced every 6 months. The shot should be given by someone who knows how to give it correctly. A person who is having a low blood sugar emergency can safely have more than one glucagon shot. Make sure the person's blood sugar is checked after giving the glucagon shot. If the person becomes more alert, carefully give a quick-sugar food or liquid.

A hybrid car with two propulsions of compressed-air and electricity is outlined. To fill up the compressed-air tanks, two methods of electrical and manual air are proposed. The electric propulsion is based on two collections of storing batteries and capacitors. The desired batteries are lithium-ion [1] and the desired capacitors are supercapacitors [2], in which they could store a significant amount of electric energy.

The following reflection was written last year by Catharine Campbell, a current Divinity School student who was an undergrad senior religion major in the Department of Religion and Philosophy at the time she wrote this. For more information on the Department of Religion and Philosophy, click here.
As a senior reflecting on my time here in Campbell's community, I can say it has been quite the journey. The experiences and relationships I have encountered have become part of who I am and my story. I entered the university as a Pre-Pharmacy major, but later found that what I was interested in, what I am passionate about, and what I am actually good at lined up with the world in a different way, a way that drew me towards the pursuit of a bachelor's degree in religion. The department that has nurtured my education has challenged me to read, write, dialogue about, question, and consider differing views, histories, theories, cultures, and ethics. My education, however, has not ended there. Campbell mentors and my time in the classroom helped to prompt me to pursue missional summers. From my first summer in the great outdoors of the Girls in Action atmosphere of Camp Mundo Vista, to my second summer living and working at the Christian Activity Center with the children of the Gomper's housing project in East St. Louis, Illinois, and finally to my most recent summer of being emerged in the larger, all-encompassing, urban climate of the services in Toronto, Ontario, I've watched my academics become applicable. I have found my lessons elaborated on in many ways: through the innocence and fire of a child who owns nothing, the wisdom of an older generation tucked away in a home, the life story of a man on the sidewalk who has become part of the landscape, or the brokenness of a woman forced into an industry. In each life, in each story, the themes of the deliverance of the Exodus, the philosophy of the problem of evil and suffering, the lasting impact of the Second Great Awakening, and the work and love of Jesus Christ and many more have become tangible.
The connection for me between academics and ministry doesn't stop at my summers. Our religion department is also involved in ministry in our community through the tutoring and mentoring programs with the youth of the Baptist Fellowship of Angier. Our classroom lessons come to life as we engage in relationship and serve others. Some say that studying Religion academically can cause one to lose his or her faith. For me, my faith has become enhanced; I have a different set of lenses. My faith has become more than heart and soul, it includes mind, adding to my capacity to love others.

Michael Clarke has finally arrived at DLF IPL 2012. Clarke was out practicing for the Pune Warriors India at their net session ahead of their match against the Deccan Chargers on May 1. This is Clarke's first taste of the IPL. Ashish Nehra, the leading pacer of the Pune franchise, believes that the Australian's presence will add great value to the side.
Nehra addressed the press at the end of the practice session. Excerpts from his interaction:
On the game against Deccan Chargers after two consecutive losses:
Obviously, we will look to win. T20 is that kind of a format [where] two wins and two losses doesn't make that big a difference because there are 16 games [to be played]. It's not like we have only two or three games left. I mean, obviously, it makes a difference, but we have seven more games to go. We are not down and out or have won only two games. We are in contention. Apart from Delhi [Daredevils], the table is wide open. Everyone has eight or nine points. So, there is a long way to go. Hopefully, we will play well tomorrow and win.
On the playing XI for the game:
It would be better if you ask Sourav Ganguly that question [Laughs]. I have no idea.
On Michael Clarke joining the team:
Obviously, someone like Michael Clarke, who has so much experience and is captaining Australia, adds much value to the team. He can bowl his left-arm spinners as well. Hopefully, the kind of player he is, he is going to deliver, and that will help Pune Warriors [India].
On the Cuttack wicket:
Last time when I played here, it was about a year and a half ago, before the World Cup against Sri Lanka. That time it was a good batting wicket. This time, I have no idea. Only once the game starts, will we be able to make it [the wicket] out.
On Jesse Ryder not being present at the practice session:
He is not well. He has got a really bad case of flu and is back in Pune.
On whether the foreign players are performing better in the IPL:
I don't think so. If you look, every team has only four foreign players [they can play]. All the Indian players, whether they are batsmen or bowlers, are performing. And this has been the case not from today, but for the last five years. Obviously, the foreign players who come, the franchises only look to play the best of them. All of them are very good international players. But even the Indian domestic players have performed well.
On expecting a tough fight from the Chargers:
Yes, T20 is that kind of format [where every match is tough]. I know Deccan have lost four or five games, but when we played against Deccan in Pune, we lost. So, you can't say that Deccan is not playing well. Even when Deccan lost two or three games, they were very close, last-over finishes. In this format, all the teams are equal; every team is dangerous.
On his own form in the tournament:
I missed the first game. I had a stiff hamstring. Since then, I am very confident with my bowling. I am bowling well. This is that kind of format, where sometimes, even if you are bowling well, there are only four overs. And where I bowl, two overs in the powerplay and then [two overs] after the 17th over, stats will not show, but I am quite happy with my performance. When I want to bowl at 140 kmph, I am able to do that. When I want to bowl slow, according to the wicket, I am able to do that as well.

Vintage Chic Wedding Flowers

Dessy Maggie Sottero
Rustic Vintage
It's going to be a good start to our work week, because I can't remember the last country wedding I have seen done so chicly. This romantic Nashville wedding was planned and designed by Cedarwood Weddings, and it is yet another knock out from the team. Anyone can see through Ace Photography's take on the day that this fête was gorgeous, rustic, and glamourous – just like the bride. Click here to see more!
Three adjectives that describe the day: rustic, romantic, music
The table settings were gorgeous! We loved the burlap and bling theme, it was the perfect mix of rustic country and romantic glamour. The table signs represented concert posters from the many shows Bill and I have seen together and fit in with our theme really well. The candlelit tables at sunset were really amazing and guests constantly remarked about how beautiful everything was.
The first reveal when we saw each other was incredible. I cried as I approached Bill in the front lawn but he did not get emotional until we moved to the Cedarwood porch. It was very touching and reminded me of how we support each other in our relationship. A close second was when we started rapping to the band's performance of "Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" and Chris Weaver (band's lead singer) said we were the best rapping bride and groom he's ever heard!
Our best advice to brides and grooms to be would be to try to accomplish something every week so tasks do not pile up at the end. Be organized because there are so many moving parts you don't want to forget anything. Don't hesitate to take ideas from the favorite weddings you've attended – your friends will be honored that you incorporated part of their wedding into your own!

McMaster & Storm. What you may not realize (and neither did I at the time because I can be a little thick headed) is that they are the same McMaster & Storm that were featured in a Country Living Magazine article a while back. How I failed to connect those dots initially I have no idea. I probably had not had enough coffee that day or something.
(picture from country living magazine)
Anyway, shortly after my mini-post about my love for their petite online department store, I entered a Giveaway Drawing on their blog on Valentines Day. I could not believe my luck when I found out that I won only a few days later! Joy, oh joy!!
When my lovely "organizing" themed package arrived on my doorstep I was downright giddy. And then I opened it up and it was even better than I dreamed!
Everything was wrapped so springy and happy, with sweet personal notes attached to each item...
and each item had a wonderful vintage quality, while still being perfectly practical in use. I am a strong believer that you won't have to choose between form & function if you just look hard enough, and these sweet items just proved that point once again!
Thanks so much to Kara and Darcy for this precious, happy, perfect package - all red and pink and oh so pretty!
I am such a lucky girl and I can't wait to put every single thing to use...
(The prize ribbon has already found a home on one of my dress form girls!)

Yeah, yeah, I know, it's just a rumor from a twitter page, but it piqued my interest so I thought I'd throw it out here. "Dark horse trade partner for #Cavs are the #Pistons. Sources say Detroit is looking to unload Gordon and Charlie V after only 1 year." - Jason Lloyd, via Twitter Apparently, Lloyd is a writer for the Cleveland Beacon Journal, for what it's worth. He then says that he doesn't know what the Cavs would have to offer (If they got Lebron in a sign and trade I would personally go fellate Joe D myself), but it's an interesting tidbit and could portend developments with other teams.
Don't see it happening, but at least we are part of some rumour. Cleveland honestly have nobody I want. Maybe Jamison, he only has 2 years left on his deal anyway if it doesn't work out.
I don't know if I should report you or just LOL, but I am glad you kept it kind of clean for our younger readers like Roscoe...
I hope they take Hamilton as well... and Tayshaun... and Maxiell... and Stuckey. Oh how I yearn this was NBA Live. Gordan and CV are, unfortunately, not going anywhere.
Wish this were true.. Watching Gordon and CV leave would be one of the best Joe Dumars move since he brings Ben Wallace almost 10 years ago..
A lot of questions about this: Is Detroit far enough to keep Delonte away from Lebron's Mom? Will Lebron fix everything in the Metro area immediately, or will it take 3 weeks? Will the trade get blocked because Charlie V has to be extradited to Canada for Domestic Assault charges? But the only real question is... Does he get booed? If he doesn't make his first 20 shots consecutively then I vote yes.
I think the bigger issue, aside from the fact that Cleveland has nothing Detroit would want in return, is that Dumars is not against trading guys he just brought in. Love it.
I'd like to keep Gordon, if anything his history shows it was more than likely just an off year (which I what I believe, especially with the injuries), Charlie V has yet to prove that to me. Ship him to Orlando for Howard.

Aron has sturdy, which serves as a substitute for Focus Sash, and instead you can give it a Shell Bell and use F.E.A.R many times. Aron @ Shell Bell Trait: Sturdy EVs: None Any Nature (Perhaps a Speed or Defense/ Special Defense decreasing one?) IVs: 0 Def, 0 SDef, 0 Spe - Endeavor - Quick Attack - None - None answered Jan 26, 2013 by Victini Victory reshown Apr 12, 2013 by Pokemaster This is the best one, but remember to use this in Sand. As JCM said it is the best because of sand resistance, but shell bell may not be best item, because it will heal and then endeavor won't bring the foes HP down to one. It's level 1. Shell Bell is THE mandatory Item. Any attack will bring it to Sturdy level, so when it attacks it gets back all it's health. Ok I get it now. I thought shell bell was the same as leftovers. Yeah, so did I. It's never used in competitive. I don't even recommend FEAR in competitive. Ghost type with protect or any priority move. FEAR becomes useless. Yeah I don't like Fear in Competitive either. I've never seen it used. It's not about all the counters it has, but of the cheapness. tru dat. "Reshirams Turboblaze" OHKOs stupid Aron And Haxorus...And Will-O-Wisp...And anything else like that... That may be so, but still there's a LOT of counters to this. Ghost types, Magic Guard Alakazam, mold breaker (especially rampardos), rock, steel, or ground types. Fear is easy to get around. I thought so, but aron can't learn quick attack. Please log in or register to add a comment. 0 votes Rattata/Raticate is (I think) the original FEAR Pokemon. But these are some other ones Doduo Dodrio Hitmontop Treecko Grovyle Sceptile Taillow Swellow Starly Staravia Staraptor Archen Archeops There really isn't any "Best" FEAR Pokemon, it's just whatever works best for your team. It depends on the generation which Pokemon is easiest to find. Gen V it's almost impossible to get the Pokemon I mentioned above before reaching the elite four, unless you can trade.

One of our (my) clients at work (my new job at OrangeSoda.com) had their website developed by this website development company called "ecreations.net". Now I personally would think that a veteran website developer would know more about protecting website content and so forth than any other beginning webmaster or even search engine optimization specialists, but oh my!
They have been in business since 1997 and on their own website they have the most incompliant worst robots.txt file I have ever SEEN!!. (File saved on my server here.)
Ok so they put their entire meta tag header, which by the way is also the worst I have ever seen, and added it into the robots.txt file, they then proceed to add another list of keywords (as if the meta keywords tag duplicated twice wasn't enough already enough) they add key phrases, one per line.
There is not one, not one line of code compliant with any robots.txt or search engine standard on this page, not one! This company could very well get you sensitive data indexed by search engines and you may not know until it is too late. So please be careful who you hire to do your website development. They may have been doing website dev work since 1997, but their ideas and knowledge level could also be just as old.

We discussed that a while back and most agree those dang bottles have a dump valve that is timed to automatically empty on Saturday afternoons! J/JK of course but it sure seems to work that way. |
We've also noted that the probabilty of having a supplier or delivery screw-up is inversely proportianal to how bad you need it, squared by a factor of Friday. |
this thread has bin a big help to me as i am trying to soak up all the info i can to learn what i am doing.
just want to say thank you to you all for all the good info. if it was not for this i would have got a cheap flux core welder then bin cussing every time i blew a hole in the sheet steel. |
Martinsr weld info
I did a search here on HR for ( basics of basics Martinsr) And it brought up the article.
buying used bottles.
welding bottles have to be tested and certified every so often. Those numbers are stamped on the bottle. My old portible 2 ft high ox acety set had not been used for about 15 years. when I needed to use them again and get a refill they were still good and the supplier traded for new ones. I had a friend that moved to the east and the moving co would not take the extra bottle he had in his garage. When I took it in they said it was too old, had lots of numbers stamped on it. They would not exchange for a full bottle. JUST BEWARE when buying used bottles, Make sure you can exchange them.
Age itself does not mean much and bottles from the 40's are common due to war production, I have seen test dates as far back 1917! Theses really old bottles have been relegated to CO2 service now but a welding supply in KY I used when working in that area had a bunch of them ranging from that old 1917 bottle to several dated 1919 and a few in the 20's. If a bottle is still in good shape, no apparent damage and it's not rusty, it only needs a recent test date. If it's out of date they can not fill it until it's tested so there is usually an extra fee when exchanging an out-of-date bottle
rusty YES
That old bottle was rusty on the bottom. , probably why it was rejected.
You betcha, rust gets those guys excited in a hurry! Part of the test is a visual inspection and if the inspector determines a bottle is physically damaged or rusty that's the end of it and the hydro test is not even done. Once they mark that bottle as "failed" it then becomes just another piece of junk. |
Any welding supply store should be able to rent a bottle to you and you can just get a mini bottle for at home. I've been welding quite a bit with mine and still have half a tank. Use .030 wire for sheet metal applications. Your welding machine manual should have a matrix chart with wire feed speed(amps), and voltage for your wire/metal thickness that you are welding. The best gas for mig is a tri-mix. it is mostly Argon with a little CO2 and believe it or not a little O2. The manufacturer up here in Canada for this gas is Air Liquide and the gas is called Almig. When welding keep your wire stick out to a minimum(more bead control and less amps/heat), weld with a trailing motion( same as writing if you are right handed) left to right for flat welds to prevent burn through( you are depositing weld metal on weld metal rather than heating ahead of your molten puddle and burning through) and down hand for vertical seems. Also, to keep spatter down to a minimum try to keep your nozzle angle perpendicular to your workpiece. Use some scrap to experiment with the angle.
Also for filling gaps try "triggering it", pulling than releasing the trigger every second or so to allow the puddle to solidify in between pulls. One other thing, if you are going to go with the argon gas mix(the best and not too $$), you may need to change the male fitting that goes into the bottle as it is different than a CO2 fitting. The regulator is the same, its just the end piece that screws into the bottle that you need to change. They are about 5$. A can of anti/spatter spray goes along way with saving your tips and also a quick coat on surrounding components helps with cleanup. I like the spray better than the gel for that reason. A good starter project for a mig is a cart for it. Cheers and good luck, Joe Welder. |
i would go to a com. college and take an evening weld class
and i would also go to the weld supply store and just talk them about your options from them to get gas i would not buy a used bottle off the street practice, practice, practice |
I have a MILLER MATIC 220 and works great, just take ur time and practice. Key is good penatration and work on ur beads next... There is a ton of diffrent way though, stich welding, tac. ect ect.. depending on what u are working on... Do not use flux core IMHO. its messy and looks like crap. I use a mix gas but see what works for you.. Good luck
PS Friends dont let friends burn with red... |

GameCube Technical Overview
Yes it looks like a cute little toy, but a very powerful console lies underneath. Release Dates Nintendo released the GameCube on Sept 14th, 2001 (Japan) and Nov 18th, 2001 (North America). That's three years after the Dreamcast Japanese release of Nov/1998. The GameCube was released in North America at a price of $199 US. Specifications First released by Nintendo at Nintendo's Spaceworld on August 24th, 2000 in Tokyo, Japan. New specs announced by Nintendo on it's website on May 15th, 2001, during the 2001 E3 show in LA. "Gekko" CPU upgraded from 400 MHz to 485 MHz, and "Flipper" GPU downgraded from 202.5 MHz to 162 MHz. CPU - "Gekko"
GPU - "Flipper" (system LSI)
(The following sound related functions are all incorporated into the System LSI) Sound Processor: Custom Macronix
16-bit DSP
System Floating-point Arithmetic
Capability: 10.5 GFLOPS (Peak) (MPU, Geometry Engine, Hardware Lighting
Disc Drive: CAV (Constant
Angular Velocity) System
Input/Output: 4 Controller
Ports, 2 Memory Card Slots, Analog AV Output, Digital AV Output, 2 High-Speed
Serial Ports, High-speed Parallel Port
*The peak figures listed are all for maximum instantaneous performance and cannot be achieved in an actual game. However, following the conventions of the game industry, they are listed for your reference. First off, lets point out that Nintendo is being very conservative in it's 6 to 12 million polygons/seconds rating, as the developer Factor 5 who is developing Star Wars: Rogue Squadron is already doing 12 million polygons/second, and the developer claims they are only using 50 percent of Gamecube's power. Factor 5 indicated they could get 20 million polygons/second per second with all effects. Effects stands for texture layers, and not polygonal lighting. Two videos of Star Wars: Rogue Squadron running on Gamecube at cube.ign.com available here. Here is information on Star Wars: Rogue Squadron, and the Gamecube as provided by Julian Eggebrecht (President) of Factor 5, and was originally presented on the forum at this german video game site: Maniac Online.
A side note on Factor 5 is that they will be providing the sound tools for Gamecube development. The software is called MusyX and you can find details on it here. Motherboard
A beautiful piece of engineering interms of size, number of large components (only 5 large semiconductors with CPU, GPU and three memory chips), low manufacturing cost, and awesome performance. The entire board is roughly the size of a compact disc jewel case! Flipper Die PLL: Phase Lock Loop
CPU "Gekko" Details Article released some details on the Gekko CPU here: Unlike Sony's Playstation 2 Emotion Engine, the Gekko MPU was not built from the ground up. It's a derivative of the PowerPC 750 RISC processor and includes some 50 new instructions. Based on 0.18-micron copper wire process technology, the device runs at 485 MHz and has an external bus to the Flipper device with a peak of 1.3 Gbytes/s. The chip has a performance rating of 1125 DMips (Dhrystone 2.1).Chip Sizes Nintendo has released the chip size for "Gekko" and "Flipper" as indicated in this article entitled "Designers bring practical touch to GameCube" at EE Times on Sept. 7th, 2000. Although MoSys was perhaps the most strategic partner, the GameCube project involved several alliances. IBM Corp. provided the so-called Gekko CPU, a custom version of the 400-MHz* PowerPC with 256 kbytes of secondary cache all made with a 0.18-micron copper CMOS process. Despite the large secondary cache, IBM was able to build the chip on a 43-mm2 die, said Takeda.*Note: CPU is now 485 MHz due to revised specs. Small chip sizes is important for the number chips produced on a silicon wafer. The more chips per wafer, the cheaper the cost of production. Smaller circuit sizes can have a huge effect on the size of the chip, as the IBM PowerPC CPU (0.18 micron)with 256 KB of secondary cache is the same size as the Hitachi SH-4 CPU (0.25 micron) used in the Dreamcast! The "Flipper" GPU contains 51 million transistors, of which half is used up by the on-chip memory. The Gamecube has a massive heat sink that covers all the chips, and it does have a fan on one of the air vents on it's side. It has been reported that the fan and the drive are very quiet. Motherboard
All the datapaths listed above are bidirectional (read and write). The 81 MHz A-memory has low bandwidth, but it is more then adequate for supporting all the sound channels that the Gamecube is capable of, as this quick calculation shows: 64 (channels) x 48,000 (sample rate) x 16-bits (data size) = roughly 6 MB/sec With a 81 MHz DSP and 16 MB of sound memory, the quality of sound in Gamecube games should be outstanding! Someone from Nintendo has confirmed that the sound chip on "Flipper" has it's own data pins to the 81 MHz DRAM that is seperate from the main memory bus. This means that all sound accesses will not have any negative effect on graphic operations. Note that the CPU also has access to the 81 MHz DRAM, so it can be used for other storage besides sound data. A good place to store information that does not need lots of bandwidth like selection screens. Graphics
Processing Unit (GPU) Datapath
The sound chip was not included in the above diagram, as focus will concentrate on the most bandwidth intensive aspects of the "Flipper" chip. The frame buffer contains the draw frame buffer (640x480x24-bits = 921,600 bytes), and the z-buffer (640x480x24-bits = 921,600 bytes). The display buffer is stored in main ram. The texturing rate was released on
March 16, 2001 by cube.ign who indicate
that they have access to Nintendo's official GameCube Hardware Overview
documentation which states a pixel rate of 648 MPixels/sec. It has come
to my attention from someone who has access to the Gamecube developer documentaton
that there is a single texel unit per pipeline.
Polygon Rate Information below comes from this
at cube.ign, and they got the information from Nintendo's official GameCube
Hardware Overview documentation.
Note: above figures where changed to reflect revised specs. Flipper chip is now 162 MHz and not 202.5 MHz. As you can see the Gamecube can push a lot of polygons per second, and it can do 26.4 million textured polygons per second maximum. Note that increasing the number of local lights in a scene would cause the polygonal rate to go down. Flipper (GPU) Instruction Set Info from Beyond3D message board thread from a Japanese individual. It lists the different instructions available by Flipper's Transformation and Lighting (T&L) unit. Here is some information about Flipper from Japanese magazine "Nikkei Electronics 2000/10/9"As you can see, the Gamecube's Flipper GPU has a very rich instruction set for transformations, texturing, lighting, and bump mapping, and is very powerful in the number of instructions it can do in parallel, while being easy to program. Texture Compression The Gamecube's GPU can use S3TC's compressed textures which provides for a 6:1 ratio in compression for 24-bit textures. For 16-bit textures the ratio is 4:1, and for 8-bit textures the ratio is 2:1. Let us consider how much compressed
textures the Gamecube can hold in it's 24 MB of main memory if we consider
different memory size requirements for game code/geometry/etc.
As you can see the Gamecube can store lots of textures in it's memory using S3TC's texture compression format. Note that another benefit of using compressed textures is that the bandwidth requirements also decrease by the same ratio as the actual compression. At a ratio of 6:1, the memory bus can pass 6 times more textures. That means the GPU's texture cache bus of 10.4 GB/sec can pass 62.4 GB of 24-bit compressed textures, and the external bus of 2.6 GB/sec can pass 15.6 GB of 24-bit compressed textures each second! Should a developer
use 16-bit textures over 24-bit textures in order to save space? Let us
As you can see with the greater ratio of 6:1 for 24-bit textures, it makes more sense for the developer to use only 24-bit compressed textures as they are the same size as 16-bit compressed textures. S3TC also allows texture compression of transparencies, which the Vector Quantization (VQ) texture compression on the Dreamcast could not do. This will allow the Gamecube to store lots of transparencies in it's main memory. Thanks to S3TC's texture compression, the Gamecube's 1 MB of texture cache can hold the equivalent of 6 MB of 24-bit textures. That's roughly 8 x (512 x 512) 24-bit textures, or 32 x (256 x 256) 24-bit textures for example. Hidden Surface Removal Gamecube does do hidden surface removal (HSR) by doing an early z-buffer check, that discards hidden pixels as it renders from front to back. The front to back sorting has to be done by the game engine as developed by game developer or it will not be effective. Of course the results will then vary from developer to developer. This HSR is not as effective as PowerVR's infinite planes, as the PowerVR method does not need the developer to render objects in any order to be effective. This information on Gamecube's HSR was provided by someone who has access to Gamecube's developer documentation. Virtual Texturing Virtual texturing is a hardware feature of managing textures by breaking them up into smaller blocks. This can contribute to quite a savings in bandwidth and make for more efficient use of the texture cache for textures like sky textures for example where in most games only half of the sky can be seen in most scenes. By keeping the most used texture blocks in the texture cache, this allows main memory bandwidth to be used more efficiently. All of this is done automatically, and does not have to be coded in by the developer. Hardware Lighting 8 hardware lights supported. Every polygon in a scene can be affected by as many as 8 lights. The number of polygons that the Gamecube can do with 8 lights depends on whether those lights are local or infinite, and you also have to consider what type of lighting is being used. The number of polygons with light sources could vary greatly depending on these variables. Vertex Compression Gamecube supports vertex compression, as it allows vertex data to be represented by bytes (8-bits) or shorts (16-bits) instead of floating point numbers (32-bits) if the particular game engine can get away with using less accurate polygon positioning. The transformation unit automatically unpacts the integer data, and converts it to floating point values before processing it. Main memory One of the most amazing aspects of the Gamecube, is it's 24 MBytes of 1T-SRAM. 1T-SRAM was invented by MoSys, Inc., and you can find specific information on this memory here at MoSys's website. With Gamecube's main memory of 1T-SRAM and it's sustainable latency of 10 ns or lower, it should be faster then any other affordable memory technology out there when it comes to repeated non-linear accesses. This memory will shine with repeated random accesses that complex game AI may introduce, and not with general texture accesses, since textures are stored in memory linearly. Texture access speed will not suffer though, since the main memory has a bandwidth of 2.6 GB/sec, and there is also that 1 MB of onchip texture cache to help keep the most repeated textures near the rendering unit. The Gamecube also has an extra 16 MB of 81 MHz DRAM and this memory would be great for data that does not need the access speed of the 1T-SRAM main memory like sound, and selection screens. More info on the memory from here: Here again the GameCube uses 1T-SRAM, this time as 24 Mbytes of external memory. Operating at a 324-MHz clock speed, the memory moves data at 2.6 Gbytes/s, with a sustained latency of 10 ns. But unlike the Playstation 2 or the forthcoming XBox, GameCube's memory subsystem does not rely on a Rambus or Double-Data Rate (DDR) interface to boost the bandwidth. Instead, Mosys developed a proprietary active termination I/O that resides near the pads and eliminates the need for placing a bank of resistors on the board, saving area and cost.Texture Cache Here is any interesting article from AsiaBizTech that provides some information on the number of simultaneous accesses that can occur with the texture cache: Parallel Processing of 32 Access Transactions*Note: Data bus transfer is now 2.6 GB/sec due to revised specs, and the external 64-bit data-bus runs at 324 MHz now. More info on the internal bandwidth of the caches from here: Both internal memory buffers have a sustained latency of under 5 nanoseconds. The frame and z-buffer memory is capable of 7.68 Gbytes/second of bandwidth. The texture buffer boasts an even faster bandwidth of 10.4 Gbytes/s because it's divided into 32 independent macros, each 16 bits wide for a total I/O of 512 bits. This gives each macro its own address bus, so that all 32 macros can be accessed simultaneously, said Mark-Eric Jones, vice president of marketing for Mosys.Drive From the specs:
Speed roughly comparable to a 13x to 20x CD-ROM. Developers would store information on the outer tracks first, so 20x speed would be more common. Not all that fast, but not all that slow. Links ArtX's site

Haak's Blog 1 and 2
October 26th, 2009 at 4:51PM November 3rd, 2009 6:09PMBLOG #2
As I stated in my previous blog, Gold's Gym is a safe bet for the Tuesday League Championship! Well, after a close game last week against Tripping Billies, we are facing off tonight against Tyler Walser and the Lord's of the Rink in the Championship. Gold's is going to have to overcome a huge loss as superstar defenseman, Jeremy O'neill is out of the game - he had an emergency appendectomy 3 days ago. Not only is this a HUGE loss to us, but this leaves us with only 4 guys. I welcome the challenge of trying to defeat such a solid team with just 4 guys. The team is myself, Bryan Dudziak, Nick Guagenti, and Mark Dudziak. This is a big game for Mark as he is fairly inexperienced at this high level of play, with this being his rookie season. I think his desire to win, hard work, and a mental injection from me will have him playing just fine. My prediction - If we can stop Walser, we win.
Monday Bronze - The Vekhaak Legends finished the Monday Bronze league with the #2 seed. This meant a match-up against the underrated Swoop Daddies. Again, without superstar defenseman Jeremy O'neill, this was going to be a tough game. The Legends took the lead early on a nice wrist shot by Haak and an even better pass from the reborn Brian Wasik. Shortly after Ryan Perkins from Swoop scored on a slapshot from the slot. It was a powerplay goal and we were all tied up at 1. This was about the only highlight of the game for Swoop. The Legends stepped up and scored 5 unanswered goals and controlled the puck an estimated 85% of the game for a 6-1 win. At one point we had the puck for just about 6 minutes straight. It felt very good to be so disciplined and dominant. It was very comparable to the New York Yankees in a sense. When they get a lead late in the game, they throw in Rivera. When we get the lead late in the game, we play as a team and eat clock. I look at it like this...... We are up by 3 goals with 7 minutes left in the game.... Why in the world would we get into a run and gun match and allow them to possibly come back? To me, that makes no sense. With our skill and chemistry, we are much better off just eating clock and playing it safe to protect the lead.
The Monday Semis are all set - Top Scorer Steve LaTona and Watsons Wish list will face off against Russel Lee Folga and Jimi Things. The other semis will feature the some of the all-time greats as the Vekhaak Legends face off against Ryan Setlock and the Myspace Predators (farm club for the Facebook Stalkers). It should be some great action next Monday at the luxurious Kenan Arena! My prediction is it is going to be quite a Legendary night!
Signing off and somehow someway in love with playing hockey again -
As the new web site begins to take shape, many people are asking what happened to the blogs? Well, we are just getting everything situated right now, the blogs will be back soon! Everyone seems to really like the new stat system, which tracks games live and also provides a 3 star award at the end of every contest. People love awards, so you can never have too many.
We are currently in the quiet time of year for Wings. Playoffs are just starting for our Fall session at the Kenan Center, and the competition is awesome! I haven't enjoyed playing hockey this much in quite some time. The Tuesday league is a complete battle every week, and as we come down the stretch any of the 4 teams could take the Gold! If you're looking for the safe bet, you would wanna take Gold's Gym, as their power, discipline, and desire to win could be too overwhelming for most come playoff time. The Monday League is also tough with Watson's wish list looking to complete an undefeated season tonight when they face off against the Excitement.
Behind the scenes, we have had a few staff meetings to prepare everything for Pepsi Center 2010. We will have our brochures and documentation out by December 1st. All information for our leagues, including our Learn to Play and Beginner programs will be available at this time. I think everyone is going to love some of the changes we have made. Our Travel team info may be a week or two behind, as we are waiting for the Torhs and Narch regional schedules to be released.
Signing off as competitive as ever -

2 stroke heatsinks
i was just thinking of using the heatsinks of the 2 stroke bike engines for as class A project. this is only an attempt to be different than the norm. anyone know if these are of any good? not sure what is the termal resistance thou, could be poor as the Al+ block seems thick but can be easily machined down.

the top of the cylinder heatsink would look cool as a heatsink. it is designed to do the same job (get rid of heat) so as long as its big enough you should be fine.

The ones found on bikes are too small, but if you find an old airplane star engine to scavenge, you may have gotten yourself something quite cool....and it will have a fair chance to actually work .
Everything is possible....to do the impossible just takes a little while longer. www.class-a-labs.com |

hrmmm.... some of the air-cooled 2 stroke bikes I have seen and owned in the past appeared to have some pretty hefty fins. Looks like they would dissipate considerable amounts of heat to me.

i have access to the machine shop to dimension this thing. but the material seems to be of harder AL alloy than the usual softer AL heatsinks. this is because the inner bore also houses the piston to work against the surface.
i still suspect the thermal resistance could be high. |

Brilliant Idea!
flathead ford v8 heads... http://www.vanpeltsales.com/FH_web/f...eed-edlbrk.htm Multiple heads on a copper bus bar would work Even better use the whole head and cylinder. bolt it to a plate and seal it, fill with transformer oil or water thru the spark plug hole. mount you devices to the bottom plate. Class A stereo Harley Davidson would be very cool. |

nothing wrong with overhead valves though:
http://www.moroso.com/catalog/images/68430_part.jpg This valve cover has vestigial fins and a lot of surface area AND a place to put the components! A cast aluminum finned oil pan might be better.. http://www.bahnbrenner.com/vw_audi/O...an___4cyl.html |

I just thought of something, don't completely fill the cylinder with fluid, leave some air space for expansion and screwing the spark plug in. or it WILL leak no matter how well you try to seal it.
There are some nice finned diff covers for Dana 44 and Dana 60 depending what size you want. nice big round bowl shapes. valve covers may not have enough surface area for more than about 5 watt class A amp. very thin too, high thermal resistance unless you mount a thick plate on the bottom and oil fill them too. |

have been on a set of junked ajs units below. they are about 8ins finned towers. can mill the bores down for 2 flat sides to mount devices and then fit a computer grade fan atop with bottom open for air inlet. tough getting the toroidal in as well thou.

Costa Mesa votes tonight on putting charter on November ballot
COSTA MESA – Tuesday night is the last chance for residents and others to get their say on the proposed city charter before the council votes whether to put it on the Nov. 6 ballot.
Ever since Councilman Jim Righeimer first drafted the charter last December, the city has been engaged in a contentious, sometimes hostile hearing process, with the meeting room filled to standing-room-only.
Enacting a city charter would change Costa Mesa from a general law city, which follows rules set by the state, to a city governed by laws stipulated in the charter, essentially a local constitution. The charter's proponents have argued that the charter would give the city more flexibility and local control, while its critics have focused on how the charter came about, for the most part drafted by Righeimer without a citizen's commission.
Back in March, the council voted 4-1, with Councilwoman Wendy Leece voting no, to place the charter on the June ballot. After former city clerk Julie Folcik missed the filing deadline, the city was forced to reboot the entire hearing process for the ballot in November.
Righeimer has argued that the charter would allow the city to outsource services and save money on public works projects without negotiating with the city employees' union, which is currently suing the city for trying to outsource services they say public employees should be providing.
He said while the extra months have allowed for a few key changes to the charter to be made – mainly, spelling out where the document defers to general law – he believes the city has lost out on financial savings.
"This street improvement project we're undertaking on the Eastside - had we passed the charter back in June, we would have been able to outsource the project and save the city a lot of money," Righeimer said.
Residents, many part of a grassroots political action committee called Costa Mesans For Responsible Government, have come out to the meetings in full force.
At the July 10 public hearing, they were vocal in reminding council members of the issue's salience to the upcoming election. Of five seats on the council, three are up for grabs. Mayor Eric Bever will be termed out. Councilmen Steve Mensinger and Gary Monahan will be running for reelection.
"My concern and what should be a matter of concern for all residents is what this City Council would do with the power of an unlimited charter," said resident Bob Small. "I find it disconcerting that the council would only need three votes to decide what they want, when they want.
"Really all it boils down to is a trust issue – and frankly, I would not trust the present council to do the right thing," he said.
Special legal counsel Kim Barlow said at the hearing that the charter would not significantly alter the city's municipal code, and compared it to the 10th amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
"This language is designed to say, whatever power that's out there that isn't taken by the [state] Legislature in laws that apply to all cities, we're keeping for ourselves," Barlow said.
A common criticism of the the charter is not its contents, but the process by which it was conceived. Instead of appointing a commission, Righeimer drafted the majority of the original document himself, often borrowing legal language from existing city charters.
"The labor unions want to slow down, stop and kill the process. That's what their goal is – it's not to come up with some special charter, there's no such thing," said Righeimer, emphasizing that city charters are amended over the course of a city's history. "It's about the results, not the process."
A review of eight other California cities that have adopted charters by the independent investigative news site Voice of Orange County found that many have adopted charters without a commission.
But many who have attended council meetings have criticized that process for leaving out the input of residents. Council candidate and former mayor Sandra Genis, who sat on the 1995 Orange County Charter Commission, says the current charter has cleaned up the "sloppy language" and vague provisions of the original draft. But, pointing to her experience on the county level, Genis said she believes the council should have had more extensive hearings in addition to the legally-mandated three.
"They had the bare minimum required by law," Genis said. "I think some people felt it was a pro forma process."
Tuesday's meeting begins at 7 p.m. in the council chambers.

You might say that this is like Troy Brown languishing in obscurity for about six years, and then he's an All-Pro overnight.
Heads must still be spinning all over Norfolk County. Red carpets are being rolled out, and people might finally be warming up to the new stadium as being a magnet for prime talent instead of a facility with bad acoustics and few toilets. Willie McGinest must be grinning ear to ear with thoughts of, after all these years, someone who will finally bring back the good old days when Chris Slade was his pass rushing bud.
After several years of signing a bunch of Joe Averages and Joe Irrelevants, the Patriots changed their free agent modus operandi in the span of a mere twenty-four hours. Leaving Patriot Nation both ecstatic and speechless at the same time, the Patriots inked two high profile free agents, one of whom is labeled by many as the best free agent of the 2003 crop.
The Patriots began this football equivalent of a sonic boom by signing Chicago linebacker Roosevelt Colvin to a seven-year deal on Wednesday. They then struck back the very next morning and procured San Diego All-Pro safety Rodney Harrison for six years. Both men are impact players, with similar and diverse styles, and both men immediately inject life back into a Patriot defense that had become moribund in 2002.
Both Colvin and Harrison opposed the Patriots in 2002, and Harrison came to Foxborough in '01. Harrison might be the better known of the two, but Colvin is the one with the most upside and the most potential to improve the Patriot defense for 2003.
Colvin, who attended Purdue and was a fellow Boilermaker along with Matt Light, played in the Windy City in the shadows of the great Brian Urlacher, perhaps the preeminent linebacker in the league. But Colvin caught Bill Belichick's eye during the Patriots' wild and wacky 33-31 win at Champaign last season, and the coach never forgot his tremendous physical skills which might have been ignored to some degree by the league due to the presence of Urlacher.
Colvin figures to fill a dual purpose in the Patriot defense. In some alignments, he will be a complementary pass rusher to McGinest, which ought to help the Patriot veteran regain some of his lost glory as a pass rusher. Colvin also will help the Patriots greatly if they decide to go to a 3-4 defense, as he will be able to handle short dump passes quite well. Colvin's speed will be seen in both his pass rushing and his pass coverage skills.
Harrison, meanwhile, was a curious signing, but a momentous one to say the least.
Bringing in Harrison to an already crowded Patriot safety corps that features All-Pros left and right might seem a bit imprudent, as well as risky (salary cap problems, finding enough playing time, etc.). Harrison's natural position is strong safety, a position which has been in firm control by Lawyer Milloy since 1996. To make matters more interesting, the Patriots have a free safety, Tebucky Jones, who has had to have the franchise tag slapped on him. Can these three men, along with Victor Green, find happiness all as one on the same team?
Harrison, one of the league's notoriously hard hitters, plays a style of football much like Milloy does. The difference between Harrison and Milloy is that the league has disciplined Harrison on a few occasions. Using Harrison as a nickel safety is one solution, but at the money the Patriots will be paying him, making Harrison a situational player won't be the most prudent way to go.
One question about what to do was answered on Friday. The Patriots let the deadline to remove the franchise tag off of Jones lapse, so the tag will stick on Jones. For the next four months, the Patriots cannot ink Jones to a long-term deal lest they want the franchise tag to remain on Jones for the length of such a deal. But the flip side is that the Patriots will either keep him or lose him for two first round picks in return. And they can keep franchising him as long as they want. There is no urgency to move Jones at any time.
Another scenario that might have happened was that Jones would be traded to New Orleans for a first round pick. New Orleans was cool to the idea of trading a first rounder for Jones, but that could change any day if the Saints want Jones bad enough (and free safety is a position the Saints need to address). Between now and the 15th of July, a team could work a sign-and-trade deal with the Patriots, and the Patriots would not suffer for having let Friday's deadline lapse.
Jones, Milloy and Harrison all carry high cap figures. Some accounts say that the Patriots may try to shop Milloy and get rid of his cap number. The smart thinking is that Belichick may try and find a way to mesh all three men and get cap relief in another way, especially if the Patriots do draft two first rounders.
But this is all detail. For now, the thought of two big defensive studs coming to Foxborough is really something. One of the real positives about Gillette Stadium was supposed to be its ability to attract a better quality of free agents. One year after its debut, it looks like that finally will be the case.
Colvin cautioned to everyone that "I'm a piece of the puzzle, not the solution!" True as that may be, few people will actually pay attention. As far as they're concerned, it's time to get back to the days of holding the Rams to 17 points on the world's biggest football stage, stifling great backs like Jerome Bettis and Marshall Faulk, and making every opposing quarterback run for his life.
At the very least, no one can ever accuse the Patriots of being Patsies in the free agent market anymore.

A.2 Requests for which the Bureau formulated a recommendation to the Committee
A.2.1 Technical co-operation
A.2.1.2 Vallee de Mai (Seychelles)
The Bureau examined the request from the Seychelles for the construction of a Visitor Information Centre in this World Heritage site. The Bureau was concerned about: the size of the site, the location of the Visitor Centre in the site, and noted the fact that construction had commenced despite previous concerns raised by the Bureau regarding size of the structure and its view that the development may be excessive.
Furthermore the Bureau recalled that the Committee recommended an extension of the site when it was inscribed in 1983. The Bureau deferred a decision and requested the Centre to advise the Government about these concerns.
The Bureau requested IUCN to carry mission to examine the potential for site impact of the construction.

TIME/TV: 8:05 p.m. / MY9
UMPIRES: HP Mike Estabrook, 1B Paul Emmel, 2B Bill Hohn, 3B Gary Darling
WEATHER: It has cooled to 99 degrees. It's hot. Really hot.
BRIDGE STABILITY: Dave Robertson has not allowed a run in his past 13 appearances, the longest such stretch of his career according to Elias. Boone Logan has retired 21 of the past 24 batters he faced, and Joba Chamberlain hasn't been charged with a run in any of his past seven outings.
OUT OF TEXAS: Mark Teixeira will not play for the first time this season. He's reached base in 53 of the past 55 games, dating back to June 6.
THREE OF THE BEST: Since it opened in 1994, the all-time leaders in home runs at this stadium are Rafael Palmeiro (130), Juan Gonzalez (115) and Ivan Rodriguez (108). Until Teixeira was scratched, this series was going to feature three of the next four on the stadium's all-time list. Rodriguez has the fourth-most home runs at this stadium (96) followed by Hank Blalock (90), Teixeira (87) and Michael Young (87).
ACE IN SCRANTON: Alfredo Aceves threw two-thirds of an inning in his rehab start for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. He walked two, struck out one and allowed no hits. He was pulled after 19 pitches, 10 of them strikes. He was scheduled for one inning.
UPDATE, 8:29 p.m.: You don't see an overturned call very often, but it looks like they got it right in the end.
UPDATE, 9:14 p.m.: I have finally emerged from the world of finishing early stories for tomorrow's newspaper. Not surprisingly, the press dining room doesn't have much left when you look for food in the fourth inning. Anyway, it's still a scoreless game and the Yankees haven't taken advantage of a pair of Rangers errors.
UPDATE, 9:17 p.m.: As a general rule, I'm all for patient hitters who work the count, but I make an exception for Vlad Guerrero. I love watching that guy hack at everything.
UPDATE, 9:18 p.m.: Two-out RBI double by Nelson Cruz has given the Rangers a 1-0 lead in the fourth.
UPDATE, 9:35 p.m.: Nick Swisher matches the two-out RBI double and now the game's tied again.
UPDATE, 10:02 p.m.: Francisco Cervelli just singled up the middle to score Austin Kearns and give the Yankees a 2-1 lead.
UPDATE, 10:08 p.m.: I've known Brett Gardner for a long time, and I think that's the most frustrated I've ever seen him. He's really been struggling lately, and he's all too aware. Meanwhile, here's Cano pinch hitting for Pena with two on and two out in the sixth.
UPDATE, 10:14 p.m.: Cano nearly got a single through the middle of the infield, but Andrus got to it and ended the inning with the Yankees leading 2-1.
UPDATE, 10:19 p.m.: A good start for Burnett just came apart with a two-out, two-run home run in the bottom of the sixth. A half inning after taking the lead, the Yankees now trail 3-2.
UPDATE, 10:43 p.m.: The fans in Texas really don't like Alex Rodriguez. He just went deep to center field to tie the game at 3.
UPDATE, 10:26 p.m.: Dave Robertson is dangerously close to allowing his first run since July 2. With a runner at third and two outs, he's intentionally walked Mitch Moreland to face Andrus. This is the biggest at-bat of the game, obviously.

Assessing the political viability of labor market reform : the case of employment protection
We analyze the political support for employment protection legislation. Unlike my previous work on the same topic, this paper pays a lot of attention to the role of obsolescence in the growth process. In voting in favour of employment protection, incumbent employees trade off lower living standards (because employment protection maintains workers in less productive activities) against longer job duration. The support for employment protection will then depend on the value of the latter relative to the cost of the former. We highlight two key deeterminants of this trade-off: first, the workers' bargaining power, second, the economy's growth rate-more precisely its rate of creative destruction.

Trouble w/cherry shrimp being eatten
I bought 7 cherry shrimp today, about 1/2" to 3/4" long. I added them to my 30g tank that houses a few different types of smaller tetras. Some of the tetras went after them like they were food, but no body ate any and they all seemed to settle down. Later I searched the tank high and low and have only found four and a couple of fat fish. Now I have the remaining four under a large colander with a few plants that are heavily covered in algae. How long can I leave the little guys living in the strainer for, as long as they have food? I only have a two gal otherwise and I wouldn't be able to heat it if I desired to place the shrimp in there.

0If you can keep the water clean quite a long time.
Rule of thumb with shrimp, if it fits into a mouth it will. Best thing to do is provide ample cover.My 33 gallon/125 liter tank. My photography on flickr.
0Small shrimp, added with established fish are gonna be food. That is the 'circle of life' stuff.
Knowledge is fun(damental)
A 75 gal with eight Discus, fake plants, and a lot of wood also with sand substrate. Clean up crew is down to just two Sterba's Corys. Filters: continuous new water flow; canister w/UV, in-tank algae scrubber!! Finally, junked the nitrate removal unit from hell.

0I've got the wild coloured variety of this shrimp. At any time there's 6 females berried. My population grows with about 4-6 individuals per month, the rest is rasbora food. And that's in a tank with plenty of shelter.
My 33 gallon/125 liter tank. My photography on flickr.
0It's entirely possible that your fish are eating your shrimp. It's also possible, though, that your shrimp have simply found good places to hide. When I first started with red cherry shrimp, I bought 20 of them. Until they started breeding, I never could count more than 6-10 at any one time. I too thought they were getting eaten but then I started finding babies and eventually the population exploded.
Another possibility - what kind of filter(s) are you using? Do you have the intakes covered? Shrimp will get sucked into filters (which often doesn't harm them, but does trap them) if you don't take steps to prevent it.300 gallon mega tank: sailfin pleco, clown loaches, silver dollars, roseline sharks, congo tetras, new world cichlids
125 gallon office tank: Africian cichlids, synodontis catfih
75 gallon community tank: bolivian rams, black skirt tetras, dwarf neon rainbowfish, corys, harlequin rasboras, otos, bristlenose and bulldog plecos, assassin snails, various shrimp

An improvement in convenience.
CTA riders can now use Google to plan their trips, under a partnership between the Internet search engine company and the CTA.
The service allows customers to enter the start and end points of their trips, and Google will offer ways to get there by bus and train. The transit agency hopes the function will attract more riders.
"Having CTA service information on the universally familiar Google Web site allows CTA to reach a broader audience and introduce them to the convenience of transit at no cost to the agency," CTA President Ron Huberman said at a news conference.
Whenever we went somewhere new, we had to Google map it and try to figure out where the nearby stations were and best route from there. My tests indicate this will be much easier.
