Official Title: | Study of Osteoconduction Potential of an Injectable Calcium Phosphate in Orthopaedic Surgery in Fillings of Osseous Defects From Various Origins |
- Presence or absence of an edging to radiolucent on the radiographic stereotypes between the biomaterial and the osseous walls of the osseous defect at different times (3, 6 and 12 months after surgery)
- An analysis of numeric radiographic stereotypes by grey steps will study the evolution of the density of the implant and environmental bone.
Estimated Enrollment: | 12 |
Study Start Date: | May 2006 |
Estimated Study Completion Date: | May 2008 |
A lot of osseous substitution products were already used to fill osseous defects in order to prevent losses of osseous that are envisaged and so prejudicial.
Synthetic calcium phosphate ceramics (particularly granulated forms) already has shown their osteoconduction potential in human at different sites. But it is difficult to put these granules in very little place.
The injectable form of calcium phosphate granules "ready to use" is easier to be used and allow a diminution of the risk of infection during surgery, and permit homogeneity of the biomaterial.
Injectable form of calcium phosphate granules did already has shown his biocompatibility and biofunctionality in animals.
The purpose of this study is to study the biocompatibility and biofunctionality of this biomaterial in his injectable form in fillings of little losses of osseous substance from various origins were no charge will act to the biomaterial.

Santa Barbara's gas prices are among the highest in the nation, thanks to a nationwide spike in that hit California harder than any other state. California's average price per gallon of regular gas is $4.65; Santa Barbara's is $4.71. As of press time, the cheapest fill-up in town is Goleta's Valero station on Calle Real and Kingston ($4.49 per gallon), and the Hollister and Storke Chevron in Goleta is the priciest ($4.99 per gallon). While there are reports of gas prices falling overall statewide, Santa Barbara prices at the pumps are expected to keep climbing, according to gasbuddy.com.

mr. "dadof3," I did as you suggested, and Googled your statement regarding AB32 (passed in 2006).
From the Union of Concerned Scientist's website:
:: "In 2010 UCS commissioned the Brattle Group to update the 2009 report. Released in October of 2010, the update incorporates newly available energy market data and a new small business case study, using the Chula Vista-based grocery store Mercado International 2000.
:: - The Bottom Line - :
"Even if California's small businesses do nothing to decrease their energy use through energy efficiency or other means over the next 10 years, they will likely experience only a small and manageable impact from the state's policies to reduce global warming pollution. These policies would also enable California to benefit from the new technologies and jobs that characterize a low-carbon economy. [...snip...]
:: - What Most Small Businesses Can Expect -:
"The Brattle Group analysis shows that AB 32 would cause small increases in the price of electricity, natural gas, and transportation fuels. The financial impact of these price increases on small businesses depends on the ratio of a business's energy expenditures to its total revenues. This ratio can be affected by a business's ability to respond to higher energy prices by conserving energy, investing in energy-saving equipment, or raising its prices.
:: "On average, California's 700,000+ small businesses currently spend 1.4 percent of their revenues on energy. If AB 32 policies are implemented, that figure would rise to 1.7 percent by 2020. This projection assumes that small businesses do not pursue incentives, rebates, and other programs that would help lower their use of electricity, gas, and transportation fuel. By investing in energy efficiency, most small businesses could lower their energy costs significantly.
:: - What the Border Grill Can Expect-
"Under the same conservative assumptions, the Border Grill could completely absorb the small increase in energy costs related to AB 32 by raising the price of a $20 meal less than three cents in 2020. That pales in comparison to the effect of inflation over 10 years: a typical increase of 2 percent per year would add $4.38 to a $20 bill."
As you can see, I missed the part about "the cost of gas will double..."

"drivel" in my dictionary means "to talk stupidly" and Botany, Ken simply called you a flat-earther, and you do make highly automatic dismissals of many items in your tendentious posts...e.g. saying exactly the same illogical statements (I do not write drivel) in your hatred of aid for public education and other libertarian hogwash. YOU started the name-calling, Mr. Botany.

You make my point so excellently Dan. You make the assumption that I hate public education because I believe Sacramento is broken and needs to be fixed. Where is the logic in that? Is your only solution really to just throw more money at the problem. Pay first and ask questions later? Is that the way you handle your household finances?
The way our state government functions needs to be fixed. Just indiscriminately pouring more money into a broken system only perpetuates the problem. That's a solution that defies logic.
I love the poor and the children of this state. I wish the poor all had jobs and the children all had a great education. There needs to be an understanding of economics by our voters and our politicians before that can even come close to being achieved. Right now we get so little for all the money the people of this state pay in taxes. And we pay a lot! I will agree with you that not enough of what we pay goes to education. More should go to education, but that does NOT mean that Californians need to pay more in taxes to achieve that. We need better government in Sacramento. THAT'S the logical solution.
Botany (anonymous profile)

Yes, YOU make my point so well, Botany, when you write "There needs to be an understanding of economics by our voters..." -- they will be able to figure out economics and many another thing when they are well educated. I turn your telescope around and start with the specific issue: our public education system is broken, money alone is of course not the answer but it is the sine qua non, and where we start. First improve education so we can have well-informed voters who will understand the admitted mess in Sacramento. These educated voted will realize we need social democracy, and a much more efficient government.
Your first priority, in every post on this topic, is ALWAYS "all the money the people of this state pay in taxes. And we pay a lot!" And you need to pay more. Forget your pious platitudes like oh I love the poor and the children, it rings very hollow, put up the money.
Vote Yes on Prop 30 (and no on 38).

I wouldn't discount Wall Street's effect on pricing of commodities futures.
While I haven't looked into the current gas price increases, people have been worrying about the effect of all those commodities ETF's that have spring up the last few years. Examples include the oil and gasoline ETF's USO & UGA.
I believe one of the larger oil commodities exchanges that has relatviely lax regulation is the London Exchange. London is outside the pervue of US regulators, but I thought some new oversight was to be put in place.

@Muggy, I will only try for partial credit ...
According to the US Energy Information Administration, here's where we get our crude oil from:
Latin America 19.6%
Canada 15.1%
Persian Gulf 12.9%
Africa 10.3%
Other 3.1%
So foreign oil accounts for 61.2%

I must have missed the part where Botany claimed that Wall Street speculators had nothing to do with the cost of fuel. I still can't find it.
There seems to be 4 basic factors that lead to the price of gas not being driven by supply and demand:
Wall Street speculators;
Taxes, sometimes driven by simple government desire to tax it to the point that we stop using it(green social engineering) or to raise revenues;
Not increasing our domestic supply;
Not increasing our huge domestic supply of cleaner natural gas to drive oil prices down in a price war.
It seems kind of dishonest to discuss the issue from a single point of view since all of these factors span conservative to liberal ideology.

IS - You're right, I have never made that claim. In fact, I do claim that speculation DOES influence the price of oil.
However, what many on the left claim is that if there were no speculation, the price would always be lower, maybe even a lot lower on a consistent basis.
That I don't agree with. Speculators sometimes bet the price will go up, sometime they bet it will go down. During a period of rising prices, speculators very likely contribute to an increase in the price of oil faster than it would otherwise. Conversely, speculation can also cause the price of oil to drop more precipitously than it would when prices are falling.
There are oil and gas futures contracts as well as ETF's like USO, DNO, DIG, DUG, OIH and many more. All are designed to follow oil (or oil stocks) higher or lower.
When oil prices are rising, politicians on the left are banging the table saying that speculation must stop! When prices drop precipitously, suddenly they are silent. Basically, these politicians are using speculation as a scapegoat for bad energy policy.

Bad apples on 'Pretty Little Liars'Nightmares are bad enough when they're unrealistic. I can't imagine dreaming about someone in a hooded sweatshirt cornering my friends and me in a dark movie theater, only to wake up knowing the event could actually happen. Foreshadowing, perhaps? Melissa, searching for her lost wedding ring, wakes Spencer up from her bad dream before running upstairs to take a private phone call. To fool their parents into thinking they're taking time apart, the girls each start new activities. Emily continues swimming, Hanna begins working on the yearbook with Lucas and Spencer plays field hockey. Aria enrolls in an art class at the very same school where Fitz and his ex-fiancee Jackie (what a small world) teach. Another small world story for you: Jenna is in her class. Tea Leoni and David Duchovny splitThey've made up in the past but Tea Leoni and David Duchovny are once again going their separate ways. A rep for Leoni, 45, tells CNN that reports of the couple splitting up are true. It's not the first time for the pair, who have been married for 14 years, as they previously separated for months in 2008. At the time the 50-year-old "Californication" actor had undergone treatment for sex addiction, according to People, but Duchovny and Leoni then reconciled their relationship soon after. The couple have two children together, 12-year-old Madelaine West and 9-year-old Kyd. Bryan Cranston on his sexy 'Crowne' scene with Julia RobertsBryan Cranston, you're not alone - "True Blood's" Stephen Moyer totally gets the sock-on-set situation. The "Breaking Bad" star revealed to CNN at the premiere of "Larry Crowne" on Monday that while Julia Roberts kept some clothes on for a sexy scene, Cranston was robed in nothing but a sock. "I wish I was wearing a body sock...It went over one specific part of my body. I'm not kidding…I filled up about an eighth of it." 'Mission: Impossible' 4 trailer: More Hunt, more stuntsEthan Hunt returns for the fourth installment of the "Mission: Impossible" franchise, and thanks to the trailer we learn a little about what the "Ghost Protocol" in the title is referring to. The clip starts things off with a literal bang, and before long Tom Cruise's Hunt and Jeremy Renner's Brandt are in the back of a car being told that thanks to an explosion at the Kremlin, the president has initiated "ghost protocol" and the entire IMF has been disavowed. The trailer then launches into a rapid-fire set of cuts showing off the cast, including Simon Pegg, Paula Patton and Josh Holloway, plus plenty of stunts. What do you think - are you adding this to a must-see list? "Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol" opens in theaters December 16. A new frontrunner on 'The Voice'If Pat Benatar, David Bowie and the remaining members of Queen watched NBC's "The Voice" last night, then I'm sure they had BIG smiles on their faces. For me, those were two of the best covers of two of their best songs. It all started with the four coaches performing the 1981 song "Under Pressure" by Queen and David Bowie. What a perfect way to start the finals show. The long and high notes were Christina's while Blake and Adam had their solo moments showing off their strengths as well. And Cee Lo brought the soul to it, naturally. Anne Hathaway: No downside to hosting OscarsJames Franco told Letterman earlier this year that his lackluster Oscars hosting job wasn't because he was actually high, but because "the Tasmanian Devil would look stoned standing next to Anne Hathaway. She has a lot of energy!" Hathaway, 28, tells Harper's Bazaar in the magazine's August issue that she doesn't think that's quite fair. "How did I take it?" she begins, referring to Franco's late night commentary. "I let James know that a whirling dervish is a more flattering comparison than a Tasmanian devil. I called him, and we e-mailed a bit." |

OH - Former police chief fights order to register as sex offender
Labels: ChildPorn , CrimePolice , OffenderMale , Ohio
View the article here | Latest Article
WAPAKONETA (AP) -- A former Ohio police chief who was convicted of downloading photographs of nude children on his computer at work is fighting a requirement that he register as a sex offender now that he's out of prison.
David Harrison was police chief of Wapakoneta in northwest Ohio from 1988 to 2002. The 55-year-old served two years of a six-year sentence and was released Monday.
Harrison's attorney on Friday filed a motion with the Ohio Supreme Court to stop Auglaize County from ordering Harrison to register.
The county sheriff's office sent Harrison a letter on Wednesday threatening to seek an indictment if he did not schedule an appointment to register as a tier II sex offender.
Harrison's appeal of his conviction is scheduled to be heard by the state Supreme Court in May.

Only through the earth may we be as one with all who have been and all who are yet to be, sharers and partakers of the mystery of living, reaching the full of human peace and the full of human joy. -Henry BestonThis is an old Cherokee fable-a very wise one I wish to share,one that carries a good life lesson/guide. I think we can all relate.An old Cherokee chief was teaching his grandson about life..."A fight is going on inside me," the wise grandfather said to the boy. "It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves."One wolf is evil ; he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, self-doubt, and ego."The other wolf is good ; he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. "This very same fight is going on inside you grandson - and inside every other person, too, said the wise grandfather."The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked , "Which wolf will win the fight Grandfather?"The old chief simply smiled and said, "Only the wolf you choose to feed grandson.""Develop who you are and remain true to your higher self and your integrity will be an inspiration to others. Show your strengths when necessary, even if it is in being gentle or humble. Do your best to find the good in all people and stand and speak up against wrong doing. Respect the earth where you stand.

[Travers Buda] is giving new life to his abandoned childhood toys. He cracked open a set of Family Radio Services radios he had received for a birthday which work up to 2 kilometers apart. With just a bit of extra circuitry he was able to get them to act as wireless modems. The system functions but it looks like it would benefit from some more refinement, including error correction. In the end [Travers] manages to send and receive ASCII based messages at a whopping baud rate of 10.
43 thoughts on "Texting with some walkie-talkies"
Technically, the license granted by the FCC specifically disallows transmitting "data" on the family radio bands, which includes touch tones. But the odds of getting 'caught' are pretty much zero… I looked into using these for communication from weather balloons.
That is what I was going say. This is technically illegal. You are not supposed to use FRS for data.
Sounds like a neat hack. -
I doubt anyone technically cares if it is legal or not… All I hear on hackaday is:
1. Not a hack.
2. Arduino.
3. That's not safe/ wear eye protection/ wear a helmet
4. That's not entirely legal.Where's the true hacker spirit?
5. Wheres teh hax:)
Well, while the same old whines get tiring, but I didn't know this was technically illegal and appreciate the warning.
When dealing with feds, 'Safe keeps you alive. Legal keeps you employed.'
Well said! -
Really? " Where's the true hacker spirit? "? Honestly guys. How many of you have thought of this? He took something and though somewhat illigal made use of it in a different way it wasnt intended for. he improved upon it. He hacked it to do something. Just cause its not extreme doesnt mean its not hacking. I say well done.
I've pondered doing this myself a few times, but always had other things to do…
*Finds old radios*
This is awesome!
Had this on my project research list…of course I wouldn't have researched the legitimacy and legalities as much as how to modify the device. But it is true ignorance is no excuse, so I apprecitate the heads up. Similarly you can't fly a kit over some altitude without special FAA or similar clearance.
SO what frequency can we use, and would a mini balloon fited with sataelite hacked gear make transmission more powereful/clear line of sight in the woods (out of the city)
@ vtols, Can someone help me understand why people who are generally intelligent and obviously interested in electronics don't just do the logical thing and follow in the foot steps of the original hackers – Amateur Radio Operators. The license is cheap ($15 bucks) the test is easy (the questions and answers are available free all over the net. Just Google, "How to become a ham") and you have access to tons of radio spectrum with which to legally hack your heart out. The laws aren't there to keep you from having fun. Why not have fun and get a first class electronics education at the same time?
This is very cool. I like that he figured out how to interface directly to the radio and have the MCU do the encoding and decoding.
This could also be done in software with a package like fldigi and the NBEMS suite http://www.w1hkj.com/NBEMS/ without modifying the radios or creating any kind of interface. You can hold a radio right beside your mic to receive with fldigi and beside the speaker and press the push to talk button to send. Some of the modes supported include error correction and can be much faster.
Sorry, some how I knew my comment would be misinterpreted… I should have stated right off, yes, cool project, even better writeup! I'm sure I'm not the only one who learned something from the write up. I was considering this for, well, not a commercial application, but a wide spread application where I thought paying attention to the rules would be a "good idea". I would not hesitate to do this for a personal project, as there is pretty much zero chance anyone else would ever notice, more or less know the rules and report me. Oh, yea, and take the time to track me down :-)
So I didn't mean to be negative, just wanted to point out some trivia for next time someone needs cheap, low power, disposable wireless communications.
Nice end result.
Also, nice choice of keyboard he has there (with a very random key layout).
@Paul Potter That's not random, that's Dvorak.
Neat hack. I'll have to look for some cheap walkie-talkies, so I can try it out myself!
Re-invent the wheel much?
Hams have been doing this since 1978 at speeds from 300 to 19.2K baud, it's called Packet Radio.
Look up 'packet modem' and you'll find dozens of models out there as well as schematics to build your own from scratch. You can also do it entirely in software using a sound card. (Google 'AGWPE')
I've seen old modified Western Electric Dataphone 1800 modems connected to radios as well as homebuilt modems using Exar 2206/2211 chips, TI TCM3105 chips and Maxcom MX614s.
There's also several designs out there using Microchip PIC devices. Oh right, I forgot, this is Hackaday. If it's not an Arduino, it doesn't exist.
you forgot:
5. But you can just buy one of those at __. -
If it is illegal to transmit data on frs and gmrs needs a licence, how do my Garmin rino (transmit gps coordinates to each other) work?
Defiintely neat, might be an excuse to check into FRS – Never really been a fan of it due to the legal restrictions on it though; 500mW max and no modifications allowed.
However, that said, getting an amateur radio license is easier than ever since they dropped the morse code requirement. Got my tech and general licenses a couple months ago, only took a couple hours of brushing up on theory and laws, followed by a $15 fee and a couple of simple multiple-choice tests.
Why did I mention that? FRS operates at around 467mHz, the closest legal band is 70cm, or 420-450mHz. Not sure what type of local oscillator these radios use (never had one to play with), but it should be possible to replace or modify the LO circuit, drop it into that band, and mess around legally (provided you're licensed, you only need tech but general is easy enough to get)…Up the power to 5 watts or so (also relatively easy), and now you've got a usable system for RTTY based on ubiquitous, off-the-shelf hardware (except for the MCU, but they're cheap enough)…
"Important Note: We are pleased to announce that the FCC has granted Garmin a waiver that allows the Rino products to send position data on GMRS channels. In addition, Industry Canada has established a license-free GMRS service. Canadian Rinos now allow users to access and transmit their position on Canadian GMRS channels. All you need to do to enjoy these new features is download the latest Rino 110 software."
Wow. he's a noob. Addd simple modem chips and get at leas 1200Bps without effort. if you really modify FRS radios you can get 9600bps easily.
We did this as a learning to hack at the detriot Hackerspace 2 years ago. It was pretty much effortless.
WE were able to do 1200bps with no hardware mods at all simply using the VOX functions and the soundcards in laptops as the modems. 9600bps was done in the advanced class.
"May I use my FRS radio to transmit data communications?
Effective April 2, 2003, the FCC changed the FRS rules to permit data transmissions pertaining to location information of the FRS station. The new rules also permit the transmission of brief text messages. The maximum transmission time must not exceed 1 second, and the minimum time before the next data transmission must be not less than 30 seconds.
Only those FRS radios that the FCC has specifically certified for such data operation may actually transmit data. FRS rules continue to prohibit the attachment of any device to an FRS radio for which use that radio has not been certified by the FCC. "
Data IS allowed in FRS, but only for FCC approved devices, like the Garmin. It restricts your ability to 'add' data services to an existing FRS transmitter though.
So, would an acoustic coupler be legal?
Great hack! I've always wanted to do this. :)
I would love to hear how it sounds.Don't worry about the FCC.
I'm sure you won't get in trouble as long as you don't interfere with the important parts of the spectrum. -
vtols — Get yourself an FCC Amateur Radio License, and you can use quite a bit of the spectrum for all kinds of neat stuff.
I've done this in the past using common AM7910 or AM7911 modem chips; there are more modern ones today of course, but they can be purchased cheaply at ham radio flea markets and the required circuitry is really simple.
Seriously, who cares if it's illegal if it's not clearly wrong. If you do everything you can to avoid jamming others transmissions going against the law is the way to achieve lighter regulations and progress. Think about CB and FM radio: they were were both illegal until people using them pushed for a less strict regulation. -
Dude, this is kickass. I love seeing stuff where some really mofuckin' hacking was involved. Screw the regs, I'd love to see the FCC prosecute "some college kid trying to learn about radio".
Very very well done, lots of people have had this idea, you made it happen.
Yeah, what a total fucking noob. If he was really smart he would have just used a laptop with a wifi card, or an arduino with an xbee module.
I *real* hacker would have just used a 3G modem.
Hmmmmmm….. Wonder if we could make this external enough where you could just jack in without needing to mod the radio. Put them in VOX mode and pass messages back and forth. Maybe status messages on a monitoring station.
My first thought: …
wow … in democracy you are truly free, you can do any thing … NOT
( Communism was better … ) -
If he is going to hook it up to a computer anyways, why not just use the soundcard, VOX on the radio and already existing software like Ham Radio Deluxe? Then the radio needs no modification. I used to do this to transmit all sorts of digital modes. I even had a laptop /w webcam that I would transmit with while mobile and the radio at home would decode and save the images.
This is awesome.
@vtols 2.4 ghz is legal for data in the US (think bluetooth, wifi — though not limited to those two products). The 900 mhz range is also kind of a free-for-all in the US, but I don't know if you can modulate data over it or not legally.
@Jaspel the same way your phones, wireless xbox controllers, and any other FCC approved devices do it: They use appropriate frequencies for their regions, (or buy them), and get FCC certified before they go to market.
@Gibson I've heard stories about the FCC knocking on friend's doors, it DOES happen, they do NOT fuck around.
I've also used FRS radios for a reliable medium range DTMF control system on a wheeled ROV back in the late 90's and early 2Ks.
(It's still there actually, in "mothballs".)Generally FRS radios are designed to deter easy modification, but medium to hard modifications are still possible depending on how far you have the knowledge to go.
Radio is good clean fun.m :)
Those operate on gmrs freq? -
pk-232 pack rat anyone? This site considers hacking to be using a spoon to spread butter instead of a knife.
You could use 2.4 GHZ "bluetooth, wifi, ZigBee" or 900 Mhz "ZigBee"
To get long range you could build a dish and tracking system with wifi. Use some servers to point and old DishTV Dish modified to use wifi. A USB wife dongle mounted at the receiver horn will work well.
Use GPS on the ground station and the balloon and then use some trig to keep the dish pointed at the balloon should work. I do not know if the gain would be too high and could be more then the FCC allows. If so get a HAM license and you should be good to go.
As I said this is a neat hack. Steve Ciarcia modified a Big Trak to get commands sent via a 300 baud modem through some kids walkie talkies back in the yearly 80s or late 70s. Of course he built his own 300 baud modem to do it. Since this was on CB it was also very illegal to do at the time but it got published in a national magazine.
This is still a cool hack and I feel very impressive. -
Why not just use CW code? Or PSK held near the speaker of the digitizing device (PC)? At least with PSK you would get about 30 baud, and can handle a real keyboard to keyboard. I'm fairly sure that the FCC intent with data restrictions on only approved devices, is if the device is actually physically connected.
That would allow for beyond intended modulation and spurious harmonics. This would be bad. Holding up a mic to a speaker that happens to be blazing psk31 is not illegal.
I just want to say, it's impressive that this guy is actually smart enough to wire up an MCU on a proto board. I hear lots of n00bs crying for arduino, that makes no sense. An arduino is good help for someone who doesn't really understand how to construct the hardware, but this guy is clearly better than that.
Now, 10 baud? Blah. Lol. But hey, at least he tried.
>I looked into using these for communication from
>weather balloons.Several years ago I used FRS radios for a Balloon Project, using plain old fashioned Morse Code to send data. A pair of radios that wouldn't quite do a mile on the ground in a residential neighborhood, did approximately 23 miles with one on a balloon.
My original site is down, but I found someone who is mirroring it with-out my permission – http://NastyPrisms.com/temp/cache/www.geocities.com/Almost_There_Weather_Balloon/Almost_There.html
This is a great hack. I've done similar with FRS packet radio software and acoustic coupling (as you had suggested). Cheap fm transmitters, cheap fm radios, packet radio software, and a soundcard are a way to do this without physical hacking and I believe there are no restrictions on sending data as far as I can tell. PSK31 can go quite a ways on low power.
Ah… if txt'ing via FRS is allowed how come I can't find a unit that has a keyboard? Please post a link if you find one.
I did the same thing a while back, except I just used the hands free port on the radio for the audio interface, and I used an XR2211 to demodulate the received audio. I was using it to transmit DGPS corrections at 300 baud to my GPS so that I could get 1M accuracy in my back yard.

Sound and fury
You really have to hand it to Gov. Rod Blagojevich.
By simply proposing to transfer the powers of the Illinois State Board of Education to his own office, Blagojevich did several huge favors for the teachers unions, forestalled any budget-busting funding increases for education and all but killed the income-for-property tax swap idea for the rest of his first term. At the same time, he positioned himself as feisty fiscal conservative, a gutsy hands-on reformer, and a concerned pro-education leader.
Not bad.
The teachers unions have had plenty of troubles with the State Board, particularly on the all-important teacher certification issue. So, the governor agreed to move that responsibility to a new entity that the teachers will probably control. Teachers contributed almost $1 million to the governor's 2002 campaign. He owes them big time.
During his State of the State address, Blagojevich claimed the State Board has allowed classroom funding to fall to 46 percent of education spending. Since the guv narrowly defines classroom funding as money spent on teachers' salaries, his entire effort to increase that 46 percent figure will directly benefit teachers' paychecks. I think the unions got their money's worth out of this guy.
But that's not all. The unions also don't want their members to continue paying part of the healthcare costs of retired teachers. So, Blagojevich wants local school districts to pick up the tab. The districts would also be forced into a statewide health insurance fund, which, the guv claims, would cut costs enough to more than offset the retiree payments. Never mind that a similar program in Texas has been disastrously expensive.
I assume that most people like the governor's proposal. Most of us don't care for high taxes and "Soviet-style" bureaucracies, as the governor referred to the State Board's administration.
So, expect the governor to find lots of "cost savings" in school spending when he proposes his new state budget. The more money he can scrounge, the more credibility his plan will have. More importantly, he will then be able to give the tax money that would have gone to the schools to other valued Statehouse constituencies.
He can even justify a much smaller budget increase for education this year as fiscally prudent simply by claiming that he first needs to make sure precious state dollars are spent wisely. The governor is using that very argument to fend off any proposal to replace Illinois' reliance on property taxes to fund local schools with a higher state income tax. Asked about a tax swap last week, Blagojevich said that he first must "get the confidence of the people back," so that they can "see more of their tax money go to where it has to be."
The guv has been under pressure to "prove" his commitment to the schools by supporting a swap plan. Instead, he's trying to change the terms of the debate.
What we have here is a plan that, at least for the moment, looks like a near-perfect political concept. The teachers unions are ecstatic, fiscal conservatives are pleasantly surprised, tax-eaters will be happy when some new state cash is freed up for them, and mothers are relieved that they have a governor who appears to be risking his own future for their kids.
Meanwhile, all the hoopla has caused the media and other Statehouse types to focus on the State Board controversy and ignore what the governor plans to do about actual education policy. He has created such a gigantic fury with this relatively small idea that nobody has bothered to ask what he will do with the fish once he catches it.

I like to write a lot of things, I'm pretty good at Pee Reviews, and I received an award Author of the Month Award and one feature. Also I like Avenged Sevenfold, Modern Warfare 2, Halo 3, and brunettes and emo girls. | ||
Concept: | 5 | Well, I have to say this is an interesting subject, yet the execution of it was a real down play. It seems to be a cross between a regular article and an UnScripts. I think you got a good concept but you did not manage to get to the point you want it. Preferably, half of me say turn this into an UnScript article, and the other half of me says just change a few things around. If you just want to make this like any other plain article, then the first thing to work on is the placement of the sections. I highly suggest you put the '''Characters''' section before '''The Play''' section. Reason for this is because it provides info of the characters. I'll explain more of the Characters section in the Humor part of this review.
Another problem is the fact the title is don't eat the yellow snow, yet the characters do eat the yellow snow. Maybe putting a adult character who warns them not to do such a thing, yet they do it anyways and learned their lesson. |
Prose and Formatting: | 8 | Spelling and Prose is pretty good, yet there are a few grammar mistakes that you need to fix. Use Miscrosoft Spell check to find them, as I did just that to find mistakes here . |
Humo(u)r: | 8 | It was kinda of a "meh" than a "lol" I shall explain further.
'''Beginning:''' Come up with a better beginning than what you currently have. You should add a name to the person who wrote (do not say Chuck Norris or Jack Bauer) and say something better than saying it's simply horrible and it pisses people off, Say something like, "the play failed miserably at the box office and got negative attention from both critics and viewers" You should also give a short summary about the play, so they can get at least an idea about it. '''The Play:''' I think this section needs to follow the "don't eat the yellow snow" theme. Like I said above, it should have an adult telling them not to yet they do it anyways and learns a lesson '''Characters:''' The problem here is that is this section should be before the Play section. '''Criticism:''' I think this section is ok, yet add a little more words and such to make this seem better |
Images: | 10 | Good pictures, they support your article very well. Good Job! |
Miscellaneous: | 6 | My average grade of this article. |
Final Score: | 37 | Sorry for the long wait, had a buttload of unexpected things to do this week. Anyways, it's a good read, but still needs work. It's also wise to get someone else's opinion. If you have any questions/comments, just go to my talk page and I'll be happy to answer them. Good Luck! Cheers! |

I am considering removing the side panels on my footbox. with the 4xl it is awfully big and I am a skinny guy so I might be able to get away with sewing together the back and side panels and still have a usable vest and save a little weight.
I think your footbox looks nicer and is probably better for warmer weather - not really that often that you would need both down jacket and vest. if it is that cold (unless totally unexpected) you would probably want a warmer quilt anyway. Yet having options is nice. May still try your version because then my daughter could use the current footbox as a quilt if she comes along. Hmm...
Great Job!
Looks good, some many uses for these jackets at that price

Tropical Fish Keeping - Aquarium fish care and resources
- Beginner Freshwater Aquarium
- - How do i lower my ph?
How do i lower my ph? i have a ph hovering around 8.0 now i dont have any fish yet just my substrate and rock (which passed the fizz test with vinegar) i know theres chemicals to lower it but is this permanent when you use chems? what is a natrual way to do it? |
Natural ways would be peat & driftwood. What fish are you keeping that require a lower ph? |
not totaslly sure on the stock list yet, but i want elephant nose fish for sure and they need something around a 6.5. about how much driftwood do you think ill need for a 55? im trying to get it around 7.0 |
Hummm. My tap is 8.0. I have five very large chunks of driftwood (driftwood takes about half the space in the tank) in my heavily planted tank and that combination lowered my ph to 7.8. You need to go from 8.0 to 7.0 so something more substantial is going to be required. I'm not a fan of adding chemicals and I know there's a way to buffer naturally without making your tank a chemical soup but I don't know how. I remember reading about it on this forum. Other members will be able to help with this, hopefully they'll chime in soon! |
i do have a solution but its going to be a pain in the butt... i have a r/o filter for the house but as yall know r/o comes out pretty slow so it would take all day, not to mention the hauling of the water... the r/o water is around 6 to 6.4 so im thinking if i empty half of the water then mix half of the r/o water that might help balance it? i know for a fact that none of the rocks are causing it to raise and neither is my sand since it was all fizz tested. How much does PH weigh in on fish stress factors anyways? and are plants sensitive to ph aswell? i dont really want to have any livebears so im kinda stuck what do you guys think? if i add that ph down stuff isnt that bad for the fish? and doesnt it only work for a limited amount of time? |
where can you get a cheap r/o filter because iv been thinking about getting one myself |
ours is from a local plumping store here in Marysville, they installed it when they put in our water softener. check online google it. pretty much all the online fish shops sell some type of r/o system. you could also try home depot or lowes as there r/o filters dont have the 500$ word aquarium on them. On a diffrent note i found out a little bit more about PH. my LFS told me ph isnt nessicarly important for fish. it does play a role though the trick is getting them aqlimated properly to reduce tss (tank shock syndrome). they reccomended that i use like a 5 gallon bucket to float the bag in and then use airline tubing with a valve at one end and get a siphon from my tank and run it through that tube with the valve and i need to adjust the valve to a drip like system. then after some time (around 1hr) get a ph test of the bag water and if its close to the mains ph then its cool to throw in the fish. |
When ammonia is converted to nitrite and the finally nitrate, the pH lowers naturally. If you're familiar with marine aquariums that happens pretty often when something in the tank dies. The body decomposes and there's a sudden ammonia spike. The pH then lowers. If you want to do it naturally, throw a raw shrimp in your tank since there's no fish in it and let it decompose. If you want to add something that's not very chemically, add a bit of vinegar. I don't remember the exact dosage but just google it. |
so your saying ph will lower after the cycle then? |

MAKS: Drug-Free Prevention Of Dementia Decline
There are many different causes of dementia and, although its progression can be fast or slow, it is always degenerative. Symptoms of dementia include confusion, loss of memory, and problems with speech and understanding. It can be upsetting for both the affected person and their relatives and careers. New research published in BioMed Central's open access journal BMC Medicine shows that a regime of behavioral and mental exercises was able to halt the progression of dementia.
Researchers led by Prof. Graessel, from Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen, included in their study patients with dementia from five nursing homes in Bavaria. After random selection, half the patients were included on the year-long MAKS 'intervention' consisting of two hours of group therapy, six days a week. In addition all patients maintained their normal treatment and regular activities provided by the nursing home.
The MAKS system consists of motor stimulation(M), including games such as bowling, croquet, and balancing exercises; cognitive stimulation (K), in the form of individual and group puzzles; and practicing 'daily living' activities (A), including preparing snacks, gardening and crafts. The therapy session began with a ten minute introduction, which the researchers termed a 'spiritual element' (S), where the participants discussed topics like 'happiness', or sang a song or hymn.After 12 months of therapy the MAKS group maintained their level on the Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale (ADAS) and, even more importantly maintained their ability to carry out activities of daily living, while the control group all showed a decrease in cognitive and functional ability.
Prof. Graessel explained, "While we observed a better result for patients with mild to moderate dementia, the result of MAKS therapy on ADAS (cognitive function) was at least as good as treatment with cholinesterase inhibitors. Additionally we found that the effect on the patients' ability to perform daily living tasks (as measured by the Erlanger Test of Daily Living (E-ADL)) was twice as high as achieved by medication. This means that MAKS therapy is able to extend the quality of, and participation in, life for people with dementia within a nursing home environment. We are currently in the process of extending these preliminary results to see if this prevention of dementia decline can be maintained over a longer time period."

If you have a dream to buy a swanky car and your monetary circumstance doesn't allow you to seek a loan then taking a car loan would be a viable loan option for you.
Know how much your house is worth. Before you decide to get a loan, decide what percentage of your house's value can be mortgaged. Calculate how much you can afford to pay every month. A good rule of thumb is for your total monthly debt obligation – which includes car loans, credit card bills and other loans – not to be over 36 percent of your monthly income before taxes.
In fact, education is just not the one outlay that a house mortgage can take care of. Have not you heard of residence enchancment loans? You might say that residence enhancements and renovations are ineffective pursuits, that they're merely a method of pandering to your ego. But then, doing renovations to your private home is one more means of growing your property. It's a good way of lifting the worth of your home. So, if sometime, it's a must to really promote the one you love home, you'll get a lot more for it, merely because you were eager to hold out renovations and restore work in your home.
wedding loans are offered as the secured deal and unsecured deal as well. A person can opt for any deal with no hurdle as the conditions are simple for these schemes. One can borrow money as per of necessity and it is not a tough deed at all. As a result, you don't have to feel tensed for anything. Now, grab money soon and do everything in the planned manner. It is your right to enjoy your marriage in the way you like.
A good score opens all the doors of getting any type of loan, such as, house loans, car loans, etc., which would help them to fulfill their dreams. A credit score also helps a person to get a decent job and it is very useful when a person is renting or leasing any apartment. Many big banks and institutions are providing credit cards for those who have good ratings. These people normally get lots of benefits for example, low interest rates. Even the annual fees are low and that's not all, there are many other benefits too.
Those who do not have a real property, vehicle, or no membership deemed valuable to be used as collateral for the credit going for this kind of loan. Many Lenders typically offer money to borrowers in a short period of time.
Finances always hold importance in arranging your dream wedding. In fact, this is the most important thing, without which you can't arrange anything special for your life partner. Low rate wedding loans can be taken without wasting time. Minimum paper work has made low rate wedding loans among the priority ones. Usually, no one has much time during the wedding arrangements and they don't want to waste their time. Less paper work in low rate wedding loans saves your valuable time. Moreover, everything that is best can be arranged with the help of this loan.

Carrie Dann writes: It's been a recurrent theme throughout the last days of this midterm election cycle: "New poll shows [Insert Senate race that didn't seem competitive three weeks ago] is tightening."
According to some polls, candidates in a handful of states have made apparent gains after months of trailing. In Pennsylvania, two new surveys show Democratic Rep. Joe Sestak who has struggled to stay within striking distance of Republican Pat Toomey since the state's May primary now polling within the margin of error. A St. Norbert College/Wisconsin Public Radio poll released Tuesday put Democrat Russ Feingold just two points behind GOP nominee Ron Johnson. In the pricey (and contentious) California Senate contest, a new PPIC poll shows GOP candidate Carly Fiorina catching up with incumbent Barbara Boxer. Gaps have also seemingly closed in Colorado and Alaska.

Fashion: we don't change much
If you ever thought about going into the fashion business in any way, say starting a retail adventure or launching your own line, you'll want to click over to Cotton Incorporated, headquarters for the world's most beloved fiber.
With a little bit of digging in the Education Department newly named Cotton Campus, you'll find all sorts of free PDF's about buying habits, shopper preferences, trends and more.
Seriously, there are hundreds of reports on such things as the state of the denim market, global lifestyle monitors and supply chain insights. Sound boring? Trust me, Cotton Incorporated knows more about the fashionista than the fashionista.
This dress reminded me of one of their research claims I read a few years back that said in short: We mostly buy clothes that we "already have".
In other words, we don't change much. Consumers as a whole tend to buy pieces that look familiar. Explains why the demographic is smaller for way-out styles and why the same-old-stuff remains strong sellers. When you're in the business, you want to SELL which further explains why retailers sell the same-old-stuff.
Cotton Incorporated may be on to something. I couldn't help but click on this dress above that I spotted on local fashion blog Tuolomee. Of course I can't buy it, I'm too old. But it's not that far off from the leggings and tunic combination I might wear today.
Think about it: Are you buying the same clothes over and over?

Marble and Beech Wood Mortar and Pestle
This vase can't help but catch your eye. The smooth line of its silhouette is filled with an organic, irregular surface pattern that draws in your gaze. The secret of its magnetism is that the ceramic structure is covered with countless, tiny, coiled strips of reclaimed paper. Not only is the shape of each coil slightly different, but also variations in color and texture, and lingering bits of typography, all provide an elaborately detailed treat for the eye. Around the mouth of the vase is more coiled paper, painted white. While it makes a stunning statement on its own, the entire vase is also finished with a water-repellent coating, allowing it to hold your favorite fresh blooms. Three felt feet underneath protect your tabletop surfaces from wear. Made in Vietnam.

Elvis Costello has teamed up with T Bone Burnett to record a new album titled National Ransom, and he showed up on David Letterman's show last night (Nov. 1) to play the title track from it. The record features backing from a number of musicians, including Tom Waits' guitarist March Ribot and Costello's band the Sugarcanes—and it's the latter that joins him here. This is the kind of raucous country influenced rock that Costello has been comfortably working in for years now, and this performance of "National Ransom" suggests regular fans will be more than happy with the direction of that new record.

A nice upgrade from the Modi/ODAC
Pros: Lots of inputs (COAX, USB, Optical), AC powered! Amazing with the HD-650/Q701
Cons: none yet
This is a really tough review because to my ears this DAC doesn't really have it's own signature. So the best I can do is compare it to my old ODAC and Modi, but all based on memory.
First off, Headroom had stopped selling their own brand of gear so I just HAD to buy this. Headroom should reconsider and hire a marketing guru. The small size and plain design doesn't help much. They're built like a tank though and not made out of plastic! Their stuff is much better than all the other Schiit. I skipped it for over a year because I thought it'd just be a side-grade to what I already had. WRONG! Since the Headroom Micro Amp + Astrodyne is the best solid state amp ever made under $500,...

Can anyone suggest a 3 monitor graphics card so I can a) stretch my desktop across all three when editing and b) sometimes use 2 for editing and the third as an HD monitor when I'm fine tuning my masterpieces?
I'm using Sony Vegas so the gigybitty thingys dont matter too much although it would be nice to have perhaps 1gb as Vegas 11 can now use some of this magic!
Its going into an HPZ800 and I know I can use 2 seperate cards of the same make but would like to use just 1.
+ I get confused with all the technical stuff when looking!
Budget is also tight at £300 or below? (if thats possible).
P.S. Note to forum grammer Police: I dont care if I have made any spelling mistakes or put question marks in the wrong places. I'm sure that any right minded semi intelligent contributor to this forum completely understands what I am asking!!!!! If not I'm sure they will ask for clarification.

I think any of ATI's grahics cards with Eyfinity can do what you want, although one of the three monitors will need to be hooked up using a display port. An active display port to single-link DVI adapter can be used to hook up a DVI monitor to a display port, although user reviews indicate the adapters don't work well with every graphics card or every monior.
This is one of the less expensive Eyefinity cards.
I don't know if NVIDIA presently has a solution that only requires one graphics card. -
ATI Efinity using a display port.
Murphy's law taught me everything I know. -
Ok Thanks. I get it now! I understand how Eyefinity works.
I was looking at AMD Radeon HD6870.
Now then not being a computer type, merely the driver not the engineer for most of my life, It would seem that AMD Radeon HD6870 is simply the "chipset" (is that the right bit?) and this bit is fitted to a range of cards from a range of companies.
Some say "with Eyefinity" and some dont?
Q. Do all HD6870 cards support Eyefinity?
Q. Which companies card should I get, who's the best, most reliable and quietest?
...or are they all much of a muchness!! -
A: AMD and nVidia make the GPU chips but rely on other manufacturers to make the videocard.
A: As long as it has a DisplayPort, the AMD HD6870's are great for gaming but IMO overpriced for everyday use.
A: I've owned ASUS, Gigabyte and Powercolor but this card has good reviews(and it's cheap): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814139056 -
ATI Efinity using a display port.
Murphy's law taught me everything I know. -
You need an AMD HD 6870 with at least one display port, plus two additional ports to use Eyefinity and have the ability to run 3 monitors using one video card. I wouldn't say any particular maker stands out as the best, but the HD 6870 cards like anything else vary somewhat in quality. Look at user reviews before deciding which version to buy. The fan seems to be one weak point with all video cards. People either complain about the noise, insufficient cooling, or that the fan wears out too fast. If you are not using the card for gaming, you may not experience those problems.
Its a good choice for everyday use, but just so the OP knows, it won't run 3 monitors all by itself. -
Forgive my ignorance but when I look for the above It just shows me how Efinity works and does not show me an actual card to purchase?
When I search for "ATI Radeon HD 6870" I get a list of cards that vary in price, look and some start with the words "Saphire" "XFX" "EK" "Apple" " Visiontec" etc etc etc all looking slightly different?
So which one do I choose! -
How to choose... It is hard to recommend a specific model, since the same models are not sold everywhere. Read reviews and see what people who have one think of them. Look for a model that says "Eyefinity". They will have at least one display port, for the most part. I did see one card from Sapphire that did not have a display port, although still says Eyefinity. I don't know what made it possible to do that. From day one of Eyefinity's existence, using more than 2 monitors at a time was impossible without at least one of them being connected to a display port.
You do not have to get a 6670 Radeon HD. There are other ATI chips that support Eyefinity. This is another Eyefinity card that received good reviews http://www.hisdigital.com/un/product2-624.shtml
Here are a few hints: Make sure your case has enough room for the card. All but one model I have looked at are full height, and nearly all occupy 2 expansion slots. Some are fairly long too. Check the manufacture's product page to be sure your PSU is sufficient to power the card. Get a model with a fan. These cards generate a lot of heat. The only ones I saw without a fan had a huge bulky heatsink instead, and might overheat unless they are installed where a fan sends air in their direction.
[Edit]Here are Amazon listings for the two cards I mentioned, for the sake of illustrating that their selling price is within your budget. You will also need an active display port to DVI adapter if you do not have a monitor with a display port.

Click on the details tab for the card, make sure it has at least 1 display port. Also I look for cards that has a lot of reviews, with at least 80% of the reviewers giving the card 4 stars or better and less than 10% of reviewers giving the card 1 egg. There are other factors i use as well but this is the jest of it.
Murphy's law taught me everything I know. -
I have a PowerColor 5770 Eyefinity 5 video card in my main project PC. I am using it to display the desktop across four monitors (2 x 23" & 2 x 26"). The only issue I ran across when setting it up was that it required active display port adapters in order to use more than two video ports at one time. It didn't matter which two ports were used initially, the 3rd and 4th ports needed active adapters to work simultaneously. I don't know if this requirement has changed on newer AMD cards, but you might want to investigate this. Also, as Dragonkeeper mentioned, if your 3rd monitor does not have a displayport you have no choice. If you need one, make sure the adapter has the same type of plug as the port on your card. Some have full size display port plugs, some have mini display port plugs. Price is about $25 - $30.
OK I think that does it!
Ive gone for:
XFX HD 6870 AMD Radeon Graphics Card - 1GB
HD-687A-ZHFC - 1GB XFX HD 6870, 4200MHz GDDR5, GPU 900MHz, 1120 Cores, EyeFinity, HDMI/ 2x mini DisplayPort/ 2x DVI-I
That seems to cover everything ya all sayin!
Thanks to all!!

I am wondering whether it is possible to take out the electric board without removing the DSI clip, cable (air box, battery tray etc) ?
I am thinking about doing the repair without removing the IMRC box completely.
1. I think I can access the IMRC box from below with the car jack up in my garage
2. unscrew the IMRC box (the box will be dangling and hold with a wire like the brake caliper)
3. open the IMRC lid (remove 5 screws)
4. unsolder the circuit board out (while the box is dangling)
5. Take the circuit board out, clean contact on the bench
6. after the contact is clean, solder the board back
7. Install RTV seal,
8. Install screw.
My concern is:
* whether the gears and spring in the IMRC box are held down firmly by internal screws.
* If so, I don't have to worry about finding all the pop out gears on the floor and put them back like a puzzle.
* If they are not held down by hardware, then it is safer to have the whole box removed and work on.
For those who did this and have the box pop opened, Please advice.
Thank a lot !!
