I just purchased this, and have a working PIC18F2550 proto board. But when I send data all I see are strange vertical bar patterns (similar to a pair of '|' very close together) instead of characters. One of these patterns (looks like a custom character) appears each time I send a char to the display. My PicBasic code is very simple. I'm running a 4 Mhz osc.

Pause 3000 PORTB.0 = 1 SEROUT PORTB.1,6,["a"] 'the 6 sets 9600 baud Pause 1000 PORTB.0 = 0 SEROUT PORTB.1,6,["m"]

I bought this Serial LCD display from Microcenter for my Arduino and ended up playing around with it in Windows using LCD Smartie and it works pretty nice. In order to drive the LCD display, you will need to purchase a FTDI breakout or cable that also provides +5VDC

I'm using the following: LCD Smartie: http://lcdsmartie.sourceforge.net/ Fryar's Sparkfun SerLCD driver: http://lcdsmartie.fryar.org/serlcd.php FTDI Breakout: http://www.sparkfun.com/products/9716

Connect the Red lead to +5v on the breakout, the black lead goes to GND, and the yellow lead goes to the TX pin of the breakout (Breakout TX to LCD's RX).

Fire up LCD Smartie and in the right hand corner, specify Sparkfun.dll and adjust your comms. parameters as needed. Restart Smartie and it should work.

The only down side is that the driver won't always update if you're actively making changes to the "screens" that LCD Smartie shows. To fix, just restart LCD Smartie after your changes and you're good to go. This is a pretty cheap solution to giving a headless server a LCD display for stats monitoring and it works very well. The only way it could get cheaper is with a parallel port-based HD44780 display of the same size.

Alternatively, if you are wanting to just play around with the LCD itself and you have an Arduino but no spare FTDI chip, you can do this by putting the Arduino into shutdown (load an empty sketch) and then attach the yellow lead to TX on the Arduino (pin 1). This will allow your computer to talk to the display using the FTDI programmer as a simple serial port to try it out.

Absolutely none of the examples work out of the box anymore. NewSoftwareSerial has been incorporated into arduino proper, but of course they changed it when they did so, so none of the examples on the Internet actually, you know, work. This is pretty confusing to a beginner.

Just a little advice if you plan to use this with an Arduino. If you are using the NewSoftSerial library to control the display and you are also going to control a servo with the Arduino, don't use the normal Arduino servo library. It is not compatible with the NewSoftSerial library. If you are going to use NewSoftSerial, try using PWMServo instead.

I have ported the LiquidCrystal library to work for serial displays and added new functions to it. I added a function to easily set the splash screen for you. You can check out my code here http://arduino.cc/playground/Code/SerLCD

1.) the wires can be plugged into a breadboard, but you might just want to plug them directly into the Arduino.
 2.) this is not a kit, there is no assembly required.

Is there a reason why you still fail to support the definition of the custom characters? They are great for graphs, progress bars etc.

I think theres a lot of things that could happen in a day to make it shittier than the one I had today. My whole family could get killed. I could lose a limb, or my vision. Apartment could burn down. I could get fired from my job. Oh, I could have a stroke and lose half my bodily function. I could get ass raped by Bigfoot in the parking lot on my way to my car in the morning, while everyone I know watches it happen live on the news.
Instead I broke one of my favorite things by accident. Then our livingroom tv broke…the xbox I got the girls for xmas is gonna go over REAL good now. Two sweaty trips to the school instead of one today. Then after a couple hours cleaning the kitchen i stumble stepping over the baby gate into the bedroom. Normally not so bad, that one, but this time I had a baby girl in one arm and a hot steaming bowl of soup/stew/couscous in the other. That could have definitely gone worse.
I clutched Zoey to my chest like a football, letting the soup fly to balance myself as my fat ass stumbled and then went down…Luckily knees first. Zoey was ok, a little hot soup got on her but not too much, although she was screaming like shed been dipped in boiling oil.
So ok, that sucked, gotta be the crown pinnacle of the shittiness for the day right? Nope. Only way I can see to clean up couscous scattered across carpet is the vacuum cleaner. Well, the vacuum doesn't fucking work, the beater brush hasn't worked in nobody knows how long apparently. Good times keep getting better. So I use the hose thing on my hands and knees, getting thoroughly disgusting in the process. So does the vac. So I take it outside and take it apart so I can figure out whats wrong with it at the same time as cleaning it. Belt is snapped, brush wrapped tightly in hair. Easy enough to fix. Take all the parts back inside to wash it in the sink…
The kids want storytime. Have to talk to them 4 times to be quiet and not wake up their sister. Oh, great…they woke her up. Fuck storytime, these kids are going to bed. And now I'm typing. I wish I had money, so I could buy something to Drink…I could use it.
Nevermind. I'd probably just have something else shitty happen to me on the way to/from the store.
Yeah, it could have been a lot worse…but it was still pretty shitty. And it's only 9:30

There are hotels of various price and comfort levels located not far from the conference venue.
The hotel of the Higher School of Economics (the reservation is over) is located near the metro station "Leninskiy prospect" (line 6): Vavilova str., 7. From it, to reach IITP RAS you should go from "Leninskiy prospect" to the metro station "Sukharevskaya" of the same line (six stops, approx. 15 min., see the metro map) and walk approx. 15 min. towards IITP RAS (see the map with the route).
We could also advise the hotel ''Akademicheskaya'' near the metro station ''Oktyabrskaya'' (line 6), which is four
stops before the metro station "Sukharevskaya" (see http://www.maanhotels.ru/akademical/).

I'll keep it short, and not just because my head is full of an early autumn cold and my hands are as warm as a snowman's wallet, but just a reminder that if you are in the Midlands this weekend (and even if you're not) to visit us at our stand at the Midland Game Fair, Weston Park near Telford in Shropshire.
After the success of the CLA Game Fair at Blenheim the whole magazine is on a high, and the Midland offers us the chance to meet so many more readers, especially those who may not have been able to make it down to Oxfordshire in the summer.
There will be all manner of have-a-go events, guns, dogs and clothing stalls around the site – what more could you want?
As ever there is a terrific subscription offer available at the Shooting Gazette stand – the gift is a bottle of port this time around – so why not come along and say hello?
Right, where's the paracetamol?

Dear MHF members,
my problem reads as follows. I have some ideas about some parts of the problem but I would like to share it completely because I find the problem nice.
Problem. Consider the system $\displaystyle \mathbf{X}^{\prime}=\mathbf{A}\mathbf{X}$, where $\displaystyle \mathbf{A}$ is a $\displaystyle 30\times30$ constant matrix with only two distinct eigenvalues $\displaystyle \lambda_{1}=1$ and $\displaystyle \lambda_{2}=2$ Suppose that the Jordan form $\displaystyle \mathbf{J}$ of $\displaystyle \mathbf{A}$ has Jordan blocks $\displaystyle \mathbf{J}_{3},\mathbf{J}_{3},\mathbf{J}_{6}$ corresponding to $\displaystyle \lambda_{1}$ and blocks $\displaystyle \mathbf{J}_{1},\mathbf{J}_{2},\mathbf{J}_{3},$$\displaystyle \mathbf{J}_{3},\mathbf{J}_{4},\mathbf{J}_{5}$ corresponding to $\displaystyle \lambda_{2}$, where $\displaystyle \mathbf{J}_{k}$ is a $\displaystyle k\times k$ Jordan block.
- How many linearly independent eigenvectors does $\displaystyle \mathbf{A}$ have?
- Suppose that $\displaystyle \mathbf{V}$ is not an eigenvector but satisfies $\displaystyle (\mathbf{A}-\lambda_{2}\mathbf{I})^{3}\mathbf{V}=0$. How many linearly independent solution vectors $\displaystyle \mathbf{V}$ are there?
- Suppose that the Jordan blocks occur down the diagonal of the $\displaystyle \mathbf{J}$ in the order stated above. Which matrix elements of $\displaystyle \lim_{t\to\infty}t^{4}\mathrm{e}^{-\lambda_{2}t}\mathrm{e}^{\mathbf{J}t}$ are non-zero and what are their values? $\displaystyle \rule{0.2cm}{0.2cm}$
Thanks a lot.

So, I think everyone here realizes that I am a big Cubs fan, have been my entire life. It started way back when I was a lot younger and mom, dad, Michelle, and I would go on bus trips with the Freeport Park District into Wrigley Field at least once each summer. They were so much fun!! Now, I love making the trip as an adult. I have to say that Jason is a true Cubs fan now too, but it did take some work. The first game we went to (well, we didn't really get to see the game - it was the day Daryl Kile was found in his hotel room in Chicago) he wore a St. Louis Cardinals t-shirt, just to irritate me! I'm not really sure when he became a loyal fan or what did it, but I can say that he is one now! We have been to Busch Stadium, but I have to say that I just LOVE Wrigley Field. The atmosphere and the history that goes along with it is just amazing if you ask me. A few weeks ago we went to the game against the Cards with two other couples - one were Cards fans, the other were one of each. By the end of the game, they were Cubs fans! woo hoo! (I guess it couldn't hurt that the Cubs won!) One other thing I have to say about Cubs fans is this...they are true fans, no matter what! Wrigley Field always has huge crowds no matter the time, weather, or opponent and that is a true reflection of our loyalty. Now, granted that we have not won a World Series in the past 5, 10, 20, or even 50 years, but that's okay...."It's Gonna Happen!" and I believe this may be our year! You know...we are in FIRST place with the Cardinals three games BACK!
For those of you who enjoy the song playing after every Cubs home game win this year, "Go Cubs Go",....here's the link to hear it: Go Cubs Go
So, for that 1pm game today...Go Cubs Go!

Promises matter to rakyat (10 Apr 2018)
Tuesday, 10 Apr 2018
WHILE most Malaysians welcome the large and varied goodies promised in both the Barisan Nasional and Pakatan Harapan election manifestos, there is considerable doubt as to whether these political promises are realistic, feasible and financially viable.
Budget proposals are announced in Parliament and backed by legislation while manifestos are publicised politically without legal backing and can, and indeed, be forgotten once the elections are over.
Scrapping the GST and road tolls are attractive proposals that can win votes for the Opposition. Similarly, the proposed significant increases in BR1M and a big raise in the salaries and allowances of the over 1.6 million civil servants and pensioners can garner huge voter support.
But the burning question will remain: Can future budgets take the strains imposed by either the Barisan manifesto's 364 initiatives under 14 major thrusts or the Pakatan manifesto's wide concessions? It would have been more reassuring to the approximately anxious 15 million voters if the Barisan and Pakatan manifestos had given them some estimates on the cost of all their generous giveaways. After all, it's the rakyat and the taxpaying public that will have to bear the costs of these vast handouts.
There are other major public concerns over both manifestos that also need to be addressed.
2. Structural transformation policies have been mysteriously missed by both the government and opposition political parties. For instance, they promise to fight inflation and the rising cost of living by raising subsidies and allowances but fail to address the basic causes of price rises. The real causes of inflation are low productivity, corruption, wastage of public funds, inadequate competition and weak innovation due to the high brain drain! And what about the vast influence of the government-linked companies that often crowd out the private sector and which may not be so competitive? What and how much have the two manifestos said about these fundamental structural issues and actual structural weaknesses?
These are some of the big elephants in the room that are not seen or are avoided due to political sensitivity in the search for votes! It's true that the economy is moving forward quite well as of now but how long can it go on without faltering?
3. The two manifestos hardly address the large elements of the New Economic Policies. What about the New Economic Model that was introduced some time ago? Has it fallen by the wayside to be ignored by all the political parties? Are we going to have more of the same protective policies in the next five years from both sides?
If that is so, what then are the fundamental policy differences between these political manifestos? Are both parties putting almost the same drink but just in two different bottles?
4. Why are the basic international concerns of the 17 UN Sustainable Goals and the UN Human Rights not highlighted in these two important manifestos? Are these concerns not important enough for Malaysia's long-term progress and sustainability? Our records in both spheres are by no means impressive so far. There has to be strong government and political will to push these UN agendas forward more forcefully, otherwise we will lag behind!
5. There was little priority given to strengthen our national institutions. Most Malaysians believe our national institutions like the Election Commission, judiciary, police, civil service and the MACC have declined in quality. Good governance in general is widely perceived to have deteriorated. This perception must be corrected as a matter of priority. We cannot afford to ignore these widely held detrimental views at home and especially abroad.
The manifestos, though not fully satisfying, are nevertheless somewhat welcomed. Although they are necessary, they are certainly not sufficient to meet the rakyat's essential needs and legitimate expectations. The wide range of fine and hopefully workable election promises must now be expanded where possible and, most importantly, monitored closely.
This must be done by an independent ombudsman or parliamentary manifesto monitoring committee, which could report faithfully and transparently to the Parliament and the rakyat once every four months. Only then will the rakyat be able to check on the honest and effective implementation of the pledges and promises.
Finally, we appeal to all registered voters to cast their votes wisely because our beloved country's future and our own future are at stake.
I would add that if you can't accept any political party, then please vote for the candidate who is capable, diligent, honest and cares for his or her constituents, our country and posterity.
We all hope for a free, fair and peaceful GE14.
Court of Emeritus Fellow, MIM

Song of the Day, October 26: Tuesday Morning by Eliza Carthy
October 26, 2012 Leave a comment
Today's song is Tuesday Morning by Eliza Carthy. It appears on the second disc of her wonderful solo debut, Red Rice. The Rice disc has more traditional folk instrumentation and arrangements. This traditional tune (Roud #579) is simply arranged with fiddle, guitar and accordion. It's the tale of a girl of 16 who is to be married the next day. The singer warns her that she is too young and bids her wait five years to know her own mind. The girl will have none of it. Her youthful optimism seems shallow, and there is a clear warning that she might do well to listen to the singer's advice. Enjoy this delightfully rendered traditional song today.

Now that Thanksgiving has come and gone and I'd like to think I'll have some time to work but Christmas is right around the corner. I actually have NO Christmas projects this year which is actually a relief. I always make the deadlines but it tends to be a bit more stressful if I have stuff that has to be done. I have a few things that are tentative for the holidays but nothing that is a gift for someone.
I finished the Old vs. New Kidrobot Mascot figures I did and those went off without a hitch. I have to commend the guys running it, Pat and Sekure D, as they are saving money by having each artist ship AND I got paid like the day after the sale.... unlike MW which has turned into a giant cluster fuck. Mostly due to "He who shall not be named!" Who is nowhere to be found yet a box or 2 will be shipped each day. Dudes been ignoring everyones messages and still owes a couple grand to various artists. My feeling is that money is long gone. I don't know if it's medical bills, taxes or maybe even drugs... but it is completely FUBAR and unless someone goes to LA and punched him in the face and takes back the rest of the figures I don't think there's anything we can do.
Moving forward, I have a close friend here in town that has taken an interest in me finishing more work so he has become my motivational manager. We sort of made up that moniker since he's really just my friend who encourages me to work instead of doing really anything else. Hhahahah. So far it's working out but I have alot to do and we'll see if I can chip away at this pile before the end of the year.
I've got alot on my desk right now but I'm hoping to finish these by the end of the year:
Thor/Captain America/Iron Man resin piece
3" Dunny's
Muppets - Floyd, Animal, Lips
Breaking Bad - Jesse and Walt
Adventure Time - Bubblegum and Marceline
Birro Mutations x2
These much larger projects are in the works will most likely go into the new year
Paw x 2
And I have many more projects than just those so if you're not on the list....fear not. I've got everything in queue there's just alot to list.

Last night, I joined my first #saskedchat. If you are not sure what #saskedchat is, it is a Twitter chat that happens every Thursday night. Educators from all over the world participate in answering questions about education and engaging with educators. Honestly, prior to ECMP355, I had no idea what a #saskedchat was. Even once I found out what they were, I thought that I did not have enough experience in the classroom to join in. After receiving feedback about our learning so far from our professor, Katia Hildebrandt, she encouraged me to join a #saskedchat to grow my PLN even further. Then, in class Thursday night, she mentioned it to the entire class and introduced us to TweetDeck. I was feeling confident that this was something I could do so I decided that I would join in.
There were a few challenges when I first joined the chat, as I was also in ECMP 355. I was definitely testing my multitasking skills. This may not have been the best way to start out, but honestly, I decided I just needed to jump in. Katia had also mentioned it was okay to lurk the first time joining a #saskedchat. I decided I would just jump in with both feet and actually Tweet and answer the questions. It was actually quite easy to do so, as the topic was about movement in the classroom, which is something that I am quite passionate about.
Here are a couple snapshots of the contributions I made to this weeks #saskedchat:
A couple things I learned from #saskedchat:
- It goes quick. Since I was trying to pay attention in class and participate in the chat, I felt as though I missed some things. You have to stay on top of it, or you will miss it. I also focused more on answering the questions and reading what others said, rather than interacting with others. Interacting with others during the chat will come as I get more experienced.
- It is an EXCELLENT way to build your PLN. The number of followers I received during the chat was quite high (and they were others than just in the class!). I am quite excited to learn more from these wonderful educators. After the chat, Lemarr Treadwell reached out to me and sent me a photo of other educators (chat moderators) that are excellent people to follow! Without a doubt, I will be following these educators!
So the question, will I join a #saskedchat again? The answer is undoubtedly YES, next week!!

"Johnson climbs, hikes and forces his way up isolated canyons catching trout – tiny and large – as he goes with his fly rod and ragged flies that he's tied himself. Along the way he encounters numerous locals who offer him and his curious collection of companions food, shelter, advice, local knowledge and even guided trips on horseback far up to the heights of the timbered mountains and down to the depths of the rocky canyons to fish what each of them, in turn, calls 'the best' of the trout streams." The California Literary Review talks about Rex Johnson's 2005 book The Quiet Mountains – A Ten-Year Search for the Last Wild Trout of Mexico's Sierra Madre Occidental (University of New Mexico Press, 224 pages). Johnson is also the author of Fly Fishing in Southern New Mexico (1998) and Arizona Trout: A Fly Fishing Guide (1999). (Thanks to MoldyChum.com for digging up this link.)

Marc Perry Jul 11, 2011 - 10:34 # @Anthony – When you say your shoulders "harm" I'm getting it to indicate that you are dealing with muscle burn up as part of your shoulders, which can be preventing you from continuing to jump rope. Once i get in good jumping rope shape, the Component of my overall body that is among the most fatigued are my shoulders. With that said, if you are employing a mild jump rope like a Valeo jump rope, which includes the right length (your arms are comfortably bent at your sides with the wrists about waist degree, or a bit over midsection stage, not way too low) your shoulders must not damage just as much.
The few negative opinions that do exist for this rope are mild on the small print and inconsistent on The explanations. Probably the most constant unfavorable evaluations (which can be without a doubt largely from those who at the least gave it rather favorable scores) complain primarily with regards to the smell.

For this product Rogue uses bearings that you can in fact see which can be a nice touch, as well as bearings by themselves swivel like a dream.

The height Win jump rope isn't going to make an effort to be nearly anything but a strong, rapidly, and trusted, jump rope for Health and fitness and education uses Which explains why In addition they discover this consist of an in depth instruction guide to acquire you started off.
You could be scared that jumping rope is going to be tricky in your knees. Nevertheless, the truth is the fact that when properly executed, jumping rope is definitely a very low-influence work out.

A couple weeks ago, Meg shared her favorite looks from Country Club Prep (our go-to shop for the preppiest clothes around!) for any guy crossing the Mason-Dixon Line this Thanksgiving. While Brian and I won't be leaving the south this Turkey Day, we are packing up the car and heading out of Atlanta and on to Virginia Beach with little Louie in tow.
So today, I'm sharing my picks for all you ladies who want to look perfectly Southern (and still have room for that extra slice of Pumpkin Pie) for whatever your Thanksgiving Day plans may be! I also threw in a hostess gift (the candles come in various Southern cities and states) and a little something for the doggies (navy and green plaid will look great against Louie's light coat) so they're looking super festive as well.
I was drawn to bright oranges and greens and classic navies and blacks for these looks – always trying to keep it simple with pops of color. I was gifted the tassle stone necklace from CC Prep and have been wearing it non-stop – it goes with everything and jazzes up any old top. Meg has the two-tone stone bangle and it looks great on her arm as a stand alone piece or mixed with a few other simple bracelets.
Now, did someone say pumpkin pie?!

If you are a parent, you know how fun and full of various interesting activities can be birthday parties for kids. Generally, children can't sit to one certain place, they want to be in constant movement and playing various games. It's quite challenging to organize a few hours of different fun activities every year. In the range so many different things to do, lot of parents go for roller skating. Roller skating can be so much fun for toddlers, especially for those who have no experience in skating at all. Facing with this activity for the first time can be challenging and and fun for both, the parent and the kid.
Often, this is the first reason for some kids to develop their real interest in this sport. For a beginning, it's okay to rent a pair of roller skate anytime your kid wants to go for skating. But, if this starts to happen very often, it can be quite expensive. So, maybe it's time to opt for a pair of new skates for your kid. But here comes some other considerations. For example, what type of skates to purchase, what size is right, etc. If you go through some skating equipment shop you will be able to find different kind of skates available, and what type is the right choice for your kid depends upon what kind of skating it will want to do.
For a beginning, don't go for the expensive ones. If they are high price it does not mean they are the highest quality. There are so many roller blades with reasonable prices that can serve your kid very well at the beginning of this journey. Also, if you make a good research you may be able to buy a pair of skates from quality brand and pay not more than $50. And believe me, your kid would not be disappointed.
If you are done with the buying process, your kid is now ready to go on the rink. Once you get into it, you will notice many people and kids who are into jamming. That is a jam skating. This skating technique borrows from gymnastics, hip hop and break dancing and is an amazing show of athletic ability and balance. The purpose is to change these moves from traditional dancing and be able to complete them using roller skates. There probably will be tournaments somewhere nearby. If your kid is into dancing, perhaps it will love to learn some of those moves on its new skates.
Another type of skating is derby. Derby skating attract a sizable crowd and is quite entertaining style. It's a contact sport for both men and women, but with time its popularity has increased and become more a women's sport. You will not be able to see this skating at the local skating rink. Derby skating takes place on an oval track and participants score points by passing members of the opposing team.
Recreational or artistic skating is done on high top boots. This style includes jumps, spins and dance moves. All competitors are judged on their flow of movement, deportment, harmonious composition, use of the rink and conformity to the music. As you can see, skating is a sport that can takes many different forms. But first, let your kid start out on the rink and learn how to skate properly. If after certain period of time you notice that your kid is gaining an interest for any of these or other types of skating techniques, you may need to consider of buying a new pair skates appropriate for that style. But for start, buy just one pair of quality skates and let your kid enjoy the ride.

Since 2005 our school has undertaken a 'Leadership for Reconciliation' Program. This inspirational program aims to provide an experience for our children that will give them the confidence to become leaders in their community.
OLMC works in partnership with the Australian Children's Music Foundation to provide a tailored music program for students. This ACMF sponsored program enables the school to conduct a music program for all students which incorporates voice, percussion and performance aspects of music.
In 2011, OLMC commenced a pilot project initiated by the Catholic Education Office, Sydney to further develop links between the school, families and the community.

The OLMC transition to school program, 'Headstart', also targets existing relationships between families, organisations and educational opportunity within the Waterloo community.

Whether it's Brexit for the UK, Trump's recent 'travel ban' or the European Migrant Crisis, there's plenty to talk about when it comes to identity and belonging and the Mass Effect Andromeda story is touching on all of that.
Or at least these are issues that are going to be tackled in part within Mass Effect Andromeda. The Ryder Twins and the rest of the Andromeda Initiative travel to the Andromeda galaxy and arrive as total outsiders.
"One of the themes of this game is about humility," explained Mass Effect Andromeda Producer, Fabrice Condominas. "You are the alien, but you're not only the alien, you're also not as strong as the guys that are already there. You're weaker or at least at the same level. Everything you learn, you have lessons to take from those guys. You're in their home."
For many gamers, being in such a position is going to be unfamiliar territory. The implications of being the outsider, intruder and alien isn't a feeling that's oft-explored in AAA titles.
"For us, it's a lesson in humility. And in the context of today – and we didn't predict it – if people can take that out of this game, that would be a huge victory for us."
Having played the first few hours of Mass Effect Andromeda at a preview event, the feeling that you're out of your depth in Andromeda is apparent from the opening scenes. As you'll know from the game's launch trailer, the Andromeda Initiative's plan to set out the Golden Worlds as the new locations for Milky Way species goes very, very wrong.
"We didn't really predict the release date timing because we started [making Mass Effect Andromeda] five years ago," added Condominas. "But what I would say is that I hope that it will resonate, arriving now in a political context in the world, which is difficult.
"We have a lot of people closing their doors to refugees and maybe players will think twice when playing the game about judging people. Maybe they will think, 'Well are we racist if we close the doors to the Arcs?' After all, you're the intruder."
These Arcs are the ships carrying the various Milky Way species to Andromeda in their cryo beds, from the humans to the salarians and turians. In some ways, they are almost unintentional metaphors for countries and can be perceived as a serious commentary on the issues of today.
Of course, tackling major modern-day issues within a futuristic context certainly isn't new. It's always been science fiction's hallmark and main appeal.
"Science fiction is never about what's going to happen in the future, it's about what's happening now and you project the stories into the future, for a lot of reasons. But this is the very definition of science fiction.
"As a studio, at BioWare, we have always tried to do meaningful entertainment. Whether we succeed in that, that's not for us to say. But we try."
Mass Effect Andromeda launches in the US on March 21 and in Europe on March 23 on Xbox One, PS4 and PC.

Yesterday was a rough day. I carried around my 7 tons of bricks – what I imagine to be the weight of my depression on a difficult day. It weighs on me as heavily as if I were literally holding up all those bricks. It takes so much effort to do anything, and I want nothing more than for someone to take the weight and carry it for a while. It wears me down. It makes me irritated – at everyone and everything. Especially happy people. How can they frolic about in their lives while I'm standing here holding these 7 tons of bricks? Why aren't they offering to hold some of this damn weight? Sometimes people don't realize that I'm so weighed down. Sometimes they do realize, but there's not much they can do to alleviate the strain for me.
Some mornings I wake up and can feel the 7 tons upon me already. They literally press me into the bed so that I can only roll over and pull the covers tighter. Yesterday wasn't like that; it kind of crept up on me until suddenly I felt that familiar weight. I wanted to be able to politely decline – "No, thanks, I'd rather not carry that today." Kind of like how you might turn down an extra shift during a summer job in high school. "I already have plans for that day, Bob, but keep me in mind next time something opens up." But my Bob is more like a Hugo, and I can't turn him down. "Sorry, Hugo, today's not a good day – it's my daughter's birthday." Or "Please, please, please give me a break today – we have such great plans and I don't want anything to ruin it." Hugo doesn't give a shit about my plans and just tells me to pick up the damn bricks.
So I waded through my day, with help from my husband, and held up my weight without having it ruin everyone else's day. I wish that over time I would build muscles like you do when you work out. You take the boot camp class and notice after a few weeks that the 30 lb weights don't feel as heavy as they used to feel – you can hold them for longer without having your muscles quiver. But it doesn't really seem like I'm getting any better at holding my bricks. I've learned to cope with them better, so that life isn't miserable for those around me. But does the weight feel any lighter over time? It doesn't seem to. Meds have helped, but when those 7 tons hit…it still feels like 7 tons.
One of the worst parts of all of this is that I never know when Hugo is going to show up with my weight to carry. I feel like I'm constantly looking over my shoulder, wondering whether Hugo is lurking there. I wish that I didn't have to be afraid every day. I wish, I wish.

The flooding of most of the Indus River valley in Pakistan has the makings of a history-altering catastrophe. The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) estimates that 20 million Pakistanis are in dire need, many of them homeless or displaced, others cut off from help by fallen bridges and submerged highways, untold numbers lacking supplies of food and potable water. In the August heat, waterborne disease is a mortal peril, especially to children, 3.5 million of whom are said to be vulnerable. Measured in numbers of people affected, says OCHA spokesman Maurizio Giuliano, "This disaster is worse than the tsunami, the 2005 Pakistan earthquake and the Haiti earthquake."
At a community hall in Diyarbakır, a majority-Kurdish city in southeastern Turkey, a shrine is draped with the illegal flag of the Kurdistan Workers Party, otherwise known as the PKK. On top of the flag is a framed photograph of Özgür Dağhan, a young man who died fighting for the outlawed rebel group. Looming above, a poster shows the grinning visage of the imprisoned PKK leader Abdullah Öcalan, whose organization's war with the Turkish state has so far claimed more than 40,000 lives. Since the PKK canceled its one-year ceasefire on June 1, scenes such as this one are once again common.
At 23, Omar Khadr is the youngest of the 176 people still imprisoned at the US military's detention facility in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. He has been there for eight years, one third of his life.
Political reformers in Jordan are struck by a sense of déjà vu. Jordan has been parliament-free since November 2009, when King 'Abdallah II dissolved the legislature for not moving fast enough on his program of economic reform. The deputies had yet served even half of their four-year terms. Since then, a hastily assembled rump cabinet has been publishing its own laws, largely the very measures championed by the king but rejected or stalled by the last legislature. The king has done this before; for two years between 2001-2003, Jordan was without an elected assembly, during which time the cabinet introduced more than 200 "temporary laws."
It is the custom of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, to devise a name for each Persian new year when it arrives. On Nowruz of the Persian year 1388, which fell in March 2009 Gregorian time, he proclaimed "the year of rectifying consumption patterns." But Iranians would not be content to mark 1388 simply with thrift. That year of the Persian calendar turned out to be the most politically tumultuous since the revolution that toppled the Shah, as the loosely constituted Green Movement mounted massive street protests against election fraud.
On June 14, the Supreme Court buried the prospect of justice for Maher Arar, a Canadian citizen of Syrian origin who was "extraordinarily rendered" by the United States (via Jordan) to Syria in 2002. Arar was suing the US officials who authorized his secret transfer, without charge, to a country infamous for torture. With the justices' 22-word statement, the case of Arar v. Ashcroft exited the American legal system and entered the annals of American legal history under the category "grave injustice." Alphabetically, Arar precedes Dred Scott v. Sanford, which upheld slavery, and Korematsu v. United States, which upheld the internment of Japanese Americans. In this case, however, the grave is literal: Arar spent ten months of his year in Syrian custody confined in what he describes as "an underground grave."
The first reports of Israel's May 31 commando raid on a Gaza-bound aid flotilla surfaced among the country's 1.4 million Palestinian citizens alongside rumors that Sheikh Ra'id Salah, head of the radical northern wing of the Islamic Movement of Israel, had been shot dead on the lead ship, the Mavi Marmara. Salah is alive, but at the time his demise seemed confirmed when it emerged that large numbers of police had been drafted into northern Israel, where most of the Palestinian minority lives, in expectation of widespread violence.
The April 18 victory of a nationalist candidate in the Turkish Cypriot presidential election threw international observers of the Cyprus negotiations into mourning. They had to bid farewell to Mehmet Ali Talat, the leftist leader who had swept to power in 2004 in the wake of a popular revolution against long-time leader Rauf Denktaş, a man known for his ties to military and ultra-nationalist elements in Turkey and his intransigent stance toward negotiating with Greek Cypriots. Talat's backers also saw conservatives cement the hold on power they had begun to regain in parliamentary elections in 2009.
When violence breaks out between Egypt's Muslim majority and Coptic Christian minority, the Egyptian government is normally quick to deny that the motive could be sectarian. Spokesmen point to "foreign fingers" that are supposedly stirring up sedition, in hopes that the file on the incident can be closed as quickly as possible and the state can resume displaying an image of Egypt as typified by "national unity." This rhetorical device has been useful in the past for deflecting demands from Copts, who compose roughly 10 percent of the population, that their underlying grievances be redressed. But the government's act has worn thin.
The neighborhood of Sheikh Jarrah, a 20-minute walk up the hill from the Damascus Gate to the Old City of Jerusalem, has become the focal point of the struggle over the expanding project of Jewish settlement in East Jerusalem and the West Bank.
In late December 2009, Arab TV channels aired footage of throngs of demonstrators, surrounded by the usual rows of riot police, on the streets of downtown Cairo and in front of foreign embassies. Street protests in Egypt have been sharply curtailed in the last few years, but the scene was familiar to anyone who had been in the country in 2005, when protests against President Husni Mubarak's regime and in favor of judicial independence were a semi-regular occurrence. Yet there was something unusual about these protesters: They were all foreigners.
Pakistan lies at the heart of President Barack Obama's plan to wind down America's war in Afghanistan. If -- as he avers -- the "overarching goal" is to "disrupt, dismantle and defeat al-Qaeda in Afghanistan and Pakistan," the war will be fought mainly in Pakistan. With fewer than a hundred fighters, al-Qaeda was defeated long ago in Afghanistan.

The argument has manifested itself in response to the crazy Franzen over-coverage, but as Jennifer Weiner clarified on her blog this weekend:
This isn't about Franzen, or FREEDOM. I haven't read the book, so I've got nothing to say about it (yet), and as for the author, he's managed to keep his mouth shut – so far – about whether he's conflicted, as he was in '01, about ending up with a vast, middlebrow and female readership, so at present, I got no quarrel with him or with his book. My quarrel is with the coverage. As I said on Twitter, if was Jonathan Safran Foer on the cover of Time, I'd have gone with #schadensafranfoer. I work with what they give meJennifer goes on to say the main reason she started this discussion is to discuss what reviews are available to readers in the newspaper these days:
Instead of asking which books and which authors deserve the Times' coverage, maybe we should think about what kind of book review section readers deserve.So for discussion today, what do you use reviews for? How could they be better?
There are critics who seem to feel that reviews are there to cover literature and literature only, no matter how few people read the books they cover. There are writers who think that because commercial books find their audience without the benefit of being reviewed, it's okay for big papers to ignore those books.
So what should a book review do? Should it be a mirror, reflecting back popular tastes? Is it a stern uncle waving a scolding finger, dragging us away from Harry Potter by the ear and insisting that we read Philip Roth instead, or a nanny telling us we have to eat our spinach before we're allowed dessert? Is it possible to be some combination?
I think book reviews are there to start a lively conversation, to get readers excited about books, to get the right book into the right reader's hands (or to steer readers away from something they wouldn't like).
A great book review section should have something for every reader, whether it's the fourteen-year-old who stood in line for MOCKINGJAY, the Oprah-watching housewife who can't wait to get her hands on FREEDOM, the guy (yes, they're out there) who loved Jodi Picoult's THE TENTH CIRCLE, and the guy who picked up Steig Larsson after not reading a novel since college and needs to know where to go next.
A great book review section should have something for the new mom who loves Elizabeth Berg and Susan Isaacs and Sophie Kinsella, and my mom, who reads J.M. Coetzee and Amos Oz and David Ebershoff. It should speak to my friend who loves Margot Livesy and my friend who reads Chelsea Handler.
Disdaining romance while reviewing mysteries and thrillers; speaking about quote-unquote chick lit from a position of monumental ignorance while heaping praise on men who write about relationships and romance; maintaining the sexist double standard that puts Mary Gaitskill and Caitlin Macy in the Style section and puts Charles Bock or Jonathan Safran Foer in the magazine…all of these are symptoms of a disease that's rotting the relationship between readers and reviewers.
Better book review policies would mean more recognition and, ultimately, more readers for all kinds of writers – highbrow, commercial, young adult, thrillers, mysteries, romance.
I can tell you this is a big issue for my patrons. When the Chicago Tribune switched their book section from a pull out section in the Sunday paper, to part of the arts coverage on Saturdays my patrons were upset. Then they went further and made the section smaller with full content only available online. My poor book club ladies do not have computers and are very upset that they have lost access to what used to be a respectable book review section.
With The New York Times Book Review being the only real book section left in newspapers, I think the editors should take Weiner's advice and add some more genre round-ups and just a general overall mix of titles.
Her comments got me thinking about how I use reviews. As one of the fiction buyers for the BPL, I use book reviews to not only decide if I should buy a book for our collection, but also to get an idea of which readers will like it. I frequently go back and look at reviews when helping patrons to find their next good read. I also use reviews collectively to help me identify trends in both what is being written and what is being read. Taken collectively, reviews provide me with a snap shot of what people are reading right now. If these reviews are only of literary fiction (of which I am a huge fan personally), I will not have a full picture of the fiction landscape.
As a reader, I look at reviews across all genres, but to get a broad representation, I need to use websites that specialize in a particular genre. I also am forced to sometimes resort to reader reviews from Amazon or Shelfari to find out about a book that is popular, but received no official print reviews.
I use reviews to find books by authors that are new to me, to identify a book in a genre I read less frequently that may be promising, and to find a hidden treasure. While I have to read Booklist and Library Journal for work, I usually put many a book on hold for myself because the review was so inviting.
So, let me know how you use reviews. Are they still important to you as a librarian and/or a reader? How do you feel about the level of coverage in American newspapers, both in the amount of reviews and in the range of books reviewed? Do you find yourself using reader generated reviews more than the print ones now that there are fewer print review sources? Tell me all about it.
And please feel free to follow past Monday Discussions here.

This paper, describes the development phases and technical details of a new vehicle concept for Autolatina Truck Operations, "A BUS CHASSIS FOR URBAN APPLICATION", launched on March 10, 1993.What seemed to be an extension of the current production chassis for truck application, the urban bus chassis revealed however to require a totally specific concept to fulfill its vocational application.This challenge was faced using moderns design/manufacturing technics and organizational structure, lined up to reduce program implementation timing, while assuring customer satisfaction.The simultaneous engineering approach replaced the conventional area by area activities, enforcing the people commitment and knowledge on program content and objectives. The CAD/CAE technics applied simultaneously assured the required flexibility to shorten development and durability test phases.The partnership established with the bus fleets, the body builders and the major component suppliers resulted in an interactive system, responsible to define product needs and required changes along the program development.

It is nice to have kittens who don't all look alike. Here's three, saved by the blanket from sinking through my lap. I was easing down the amount of chicken (and running out of chicken) that I add to their food, and they've slowed down on the weight gain. Vernon barfed yesterday, but later was eating and apparently digesting well.
I've been losing track of vet appointments though. With the swap, I did have dates but not times and forgot to even check when that date arrived. My bad.

Nissan reveals their 2014 Le Mans Garage 56 Entry – ZEOD RC – World's Fastest Electric Racing Car
Nissan has today unveiled its new Garage 56 entry for the 2014 Le Mans race, as we mentioned a few days ago.
The new car called the ZEOD RC, which stands for Zero Emission On Demand Racing Car, is the world's fastest electric racing car.
The new ZEOD RC does resemble Nissan's last Garage 56 entry the DeltaWing and there is a reason for this, Nissan has appointed the original designer of the DeltaWing Ben Bowlby as director of Nissan's Motorsport Innovation.
The Garage 56 entry is an additional spot on the Le Mans 24hr grid created by the organisers, Automobile Club de l'Ouest, for vehicles that showcase new and innovative technology.
While no exact performance or technical figures have been released as yet, we do know that the electric technology will come from Nissan's Leaf road car.
So the next 12 months of development and testing will be very interesting to watch in the lead up to the 2014 Le Mans race.

SOURCE: I replaced old pump w/
The water and therefore the pressure has to be going somewhere. If you are sure that there are no leaks in the house or outside, then the water is going back into the well. There is a check valve either in the suction line of the pump between the top of the well and the pump or down in the well.
If this check valve fails, it allows water to go the wrong way and back to the well. The result is that you lose pressure.
Secondly, you have to be sure that there are no air leaks between the top of the well and the inlet to the check valve. Leaks in that piping will make repriming difficult.
Write back with more and I'll try to help more.

SOURCE: my sump pump doesn't shut off, I am assuming it
Does the breaker to the pump pop when you raise the float up? If so, you have the same problem I had. I was bothered by the two cords coming out of the ground and plugged into an outside outlet since I have young kids playing around it. One of the cords was plugged into the back of the other cord's plug. I rewired the cords in a junction box. I didn't understand that the plug that was plugged into the outlet was actually a switch. When the float is up, it allows power to flow through the other electrical cord. By wiring both plugs to 120V, I basically wired the pump directly to power and the switch directly to power. My pump ran continuously for several months before I realized my error. Since the pump was always running, the float never was raised to the up position which would have popped the breaker. If you try raising up the float and your breaker pops, then you will know you did the same thing I did.

THOUGHTFUL THURSDAY ~ Genetics And Depression ~ March 10, 2011 by Dolores Ayotte
Over thirty six years ago I gave birth to twin daughters. I didn't even know I was having twins until the day I went into labor. You can well imagine our surprise and delight. Our two-year old daughter was equally delighted with her two new baby sisters. Soon after I gave birth, many people asked me if twins ran in my family. I answered, "not to my knowledge". Shortly after that I heard from extended family members that there were indeed many sets of twins on both my husband's and my side of the family. I only discovered this fact later on in life because now this information had more relevance to my particular situation.
In some of my recent posts, I've been discussing the topic of depression. I have briefly touched on the premise that depression can be anger turned inward. Today, I am going to discuss another opinion I have about depression. I am no medical professional. This is only a personal opinion based on my own experience with depression.
Perhaps, you have already been exposed to the word "predisposition" . This is the word I am going to use to elaborate on what I refer to as the genetic link to depression. We have already heard, when referring to the medical model, that certain physical illnesses are genetically linked like heart disease, cancer, high blood pressure, and so on. Due to this genetic link we might be more apt to get or inherit these diseases from our ancestors. I think that a similar analogy can also be made with other illnesses like depression. When I suffered my severe bout with depression in my early thirties, I had a better look as to why I was suffering from depression when many of my peers were not. This realization was similar to when I gave birth to twins. I learned that many of my family members had also suffered in a similar way. When this debilitating illness became more relevant to me, I had a better look. In doing so, I discovered that there seemed to be a genetic link because there was a long list of family members who shared my plight.
I came to the conclusion that one of my genetic weaknesses had to do with depression. I now refer to this as my "genetic predisposition" to this particular condition. To me, it is no different from any other genes that we might inherit. In my opinion, having this "predisposition" does not necessarily mean that we will suffer from depression or other forms of mental illness. What it does mean is that we might have the propensity to be depressed if a traumatic event occurs in our lives to "trigger" an episode. Such traumatic events may include the after effects of combat, the death of a loved one, divorce, job loss, financial woes, stress, etc. Some of these events are impossible to control and can have a devastating effect on those with a "predisposition" to depression.
According to Nancy Schimelpfening, "The causes of depression are not entirely understood, but are thought to be multi-factorial. Studies indicate that depression is, at least in part, an inherited condition involving abnormalities in neurotransmitter functioning. Although inheritance is an important factor in major depression, it does not account for all cases of depression, implying that environmental factors may either play an important causal role or exacerbate underlying genetic vulnerabilities."
In a perfect world where there were no traumatic events, possibly there would be no depression. I don't know. I do know however, that this is not a perfect world. Although, we have no control over our genetic make-up, in a lot of instances we do have some control over the "triggers" that may cause our possible depression. From my personal frame of reference, this was what I have strived to achieve in overcoming my own depression. What I am basically saying here is this. If you suffer from symptoms of depression, the best course of action is to try to figure out what is causing it. This is the first step. After that, you may just succeed in figuring out what to do about it. If the "triggers" are within your power to control or avoid, your depression may also be managed more effectively. What do you think?

Thanks so much for sharing this topic. Depression is such a pertinent part of life and you have approached it well. Thank you again.
Dolores; Here is a poem I did a while ago. It is short but says so much as to my outlook on life. I feel that avoiding or overcoming depression,[ now mind you I have never suffered from it that I know of], has so much to do with our outlook, not only on life, but also our outlook on the events that occur in our life. When we realize we are never alone, either in our circumstances, meaning we are not unique to them, nor are we abandoned in them. If we feel alone or abandoned, then that is just it, we feel that way. God never leaves us and chances are we have more friends than we recognize. In each case if we reach out, either upward or outward, there is help.
I do recognize as you say here that in some families there appears to be a predisposition to depression. At least in my observations I have seen it so. I am not an expert in sense of the word on this subject, this merely says this has been my observation.
I am alive today
I have made a choice
I'll be kind in what I say
I'll put laughter in my voice
Yes I've lost some things
Yes I've known some pain
Yet my heart will sing
Yet I will laugh again
A poem by Charles Betts
