Free weather station software!
Cumulus is free software for retrieving, storing and displaying data from an electronic Automatic Weather Station (AWS).
Cumulus will store full weather records, along with daily, monthly, annual and all-time records, and graphical data. Cumulus can upload its data to a web server and comes packaged with templated web pages for this purpose. Cumulus also supports automatic uploads to Weather Underground and CWOP/APRS.
Cumulus works with the Davis Vantage Pro and Vantage Pro2 weather stations (and the new Vantage Vue), the Oregon Scientific WMR-928 and WM-918 weather stations (and related models), Fine Offset stations such as the WH1081, and the La Crosse WS-2300 range.
Warning: If your weather station is a La Crosse and it is connected using a serial/USB adapter, then you will probably have problems using it with Cumulus, in that you will get erroneous data from time to time – this is a common problem with these stations when used in this way. There doesn't seem to be anything I can do about this. For this reason, I am sorry to say that I cannot support the use of Cumulus in this way. Note that even if you are using a direct serial connection, I don't actually own a La Crosse weather station, and there is no official documentation available for the protocol, so I am only able to give limited support for these stations, and if you have any problems it is unlikely that I will be able to anything about it.
Cumulus is in use on our own Davis Vantage Pro2 weather station, and our data are uploaded to our weather website: Sanday Weather. The web template in use there is packaged with Cumulus, and the commented CSS file is included in order that users may adapt it for their own use, changing the colours and background image as desired. You can, of course, write your own web pages from scratch, and use the 'web tags' feature to make Cumulus insert your weather data at the appropriate places. See the help file for more details.
- Free for personal and non-profit use, but a donation would be appreciated if you continue to use Cumulus after trying it
- Runs on Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7. It should also work fine on the corresponding Server operating systems.
- Supports Davis Vantage Pro and Pro2, and Vue; Oregon Scientific WM918, WMR-918, WMR-928, WMR-968, WMR88, WMR100, WMR200 weather stations; EasyWeather stations (MyDEL, Nevada, Watson, Fine Offset, WH1080, WH1081, W8681 etc); La Crosse WS-2300 and other models in the WS23xx range. For a more extensive list of supported stations, see this page in the wiki.

Pets, Pets, Pets
"Quinn" an emaciated English Setter found wandering by Animal Care & Control in the Bronx the day afterChristmas wins "Best In Shelter". Hands down.Thisorange belton boy may have been an abandoned hunting dog. He is the smaller field variety Setter, somewhere from five to seven years old. What was a 35 pound English Setter doing in the Bronx? Ultimately it doesn't matter, but his delightful demeanor does.
Our walking skeleton has an exceptional capacity for love. Everyone who meets Quinn gets stuck with his Cupid arrows. Besides being pathetically thin, he melts you with his appreciation for any attention. Each person, including those in the hospital waiting room, falls for Quinn. Can love really conquer all? His prognosis is grim. Only time will tell if this reciprocal devotion can mend his kidneys ravaged by untreated Lyme disease.Although Quinn's fans have canine connections, his new godparents may be too late to save him. We thought he was starving when he was pulled from the Manhattan shelter by Aunt Bonnie, coordinator of the search for Vivi the Westminster Whippet, best friend to all missing and homeless dogs. Actually, Aunty Phyllis officially pulled him via her "4 Paws Sake" rescue so he could be moved from the Manhattan to Brooklyn shelter where Bonnie could get him. Quinn's a three-borough boy.
Surely a little TLC can fixstarving. Aunt Maura, a member of the English Setter community, had three homes waiting before we learned why he was so thin. A wonderful couple came from Connecticut, but they had just lost a Setter to kidney disease. Meanwhile Quinn continued to get the best of care at Aunt Tracey's kennel in Deer Park, (the same haven where our Afghans from the New Mexico hoarder and Manley the blind Boston Terrier found refuge).Quinn's intake photos grabbed me. Bonnie lives in Queens so I offered to visit Quinn and take him to my vet. I too fell under his spell. How could a dog look so horrible and still be so happy? Lumps in his neck and a picky appetite indicated something beyond hunger. Lymphoma? No. A preliminary test stained dark as can be for Lyme. Ironically the city shelter had released him with doxycycline, the correct antibiotic for Lyme. At first I thought that diagnosis was a reprieve until his blood work revealed kidney values that made my veterinarians cringe.
Lyme nephritis in dogs is generally fatal. Quinn's kidneys are close to failing. He is also anemic, his bone marrow no longer producing red blood cells. He has an additional urinary infection. Despite this, presently he appears pain free. He adores us, "walkies,"his squeaky toy, other dogs, and even the kennel cat that clobbered him for disturbing his nap. So how do you put a dog like this down? We decided to start Quinn on meds plus an appetite stimulant and kidney diet, and then search for a hospice home.
After giving him his first mega-dose of six drugs, Quinn was resting under his comforter and suddenly the blanket started to shake. I panicked, thinking he was having some sort of reaction- a tremor, perhaps, until I realized he was merely wagging his tail.Aunts Honi and Carol, both AKC judges, also integral to the Vivi search accompanied Bonnie when Quinn left the city shelter. Also bitten by the Quinn Love Bug, they wanted to foster him but were cautioned his exposure to shelter upper respiratory infection made it risky to put him near their senior Dachshund until he waited two more weeks. Time is of essence. Bonnie asked Above & Beyond English Setter Rescue (www.esrescue.org) to post Quinn on their Yahoo Group as a hospice dog since none of us are able to take him. Theresponse was an answer to our prayers.
Quinn's Cupid arrows flew above and beyond because immediately Eileen, a volunteer for Above & Beyond, offered to adopt him. She and Tom are experienced with Setters and Springers needing extensive medical care. Their dogs are treated royally. They have a large PA home on 10 acres furnished with K-9 comforts extraordinaire like dog futons and a furnished suite, (if isolation is needed) plus an electro-magnetic impulse bed for sore joints. Eileen's vets have already seen the nasty blood work so she intends to combine traditional and holistic approaches. His special home-cooked renal diet will include "the salmon steaks in the freezer that have Quinn's name on them." We couldn't conjure up a better home for Quinn.
Above & Beyond is sharing transport with us. While I hesitate to print this prematurely, I need to praise Quinn in the present tense. This special Setter reminds us how precious life is. Hopefully by the time you read this, Quinn will be relaxing near Harrisburg. As Eileen writes: "Spoiling him is the absolute top priority….and I thank you for entrusting him with us. It will be hard knowing his days are numbered but Tom and I will be better for knowing and loving Quinn."Paw Note: Quinn's legacy of love extends to other homeless dogs. His Aunt Tracey, active in the English Springer Spaniel community, also coordinates the Garden Specialty Association (GSA) dog shows that precede Westminster. Thisyear the public can come see more than 40 individual shows, breed specialties as well as obedience and rally, at the Nassau Coliseum from Feb. 11th to 14th. Through GSA at these Westminster Weekend Shows, breed rescues are promoted, but because of "Best In Shelter" Quinn, Last Hope Animal Rescue foster dogs are invited too. More details soon.
For Adoption at Babylon Town Shelter (643-9270) Lamar St. W. Babylon: Young "Kaya" in Cage 36, victim of an eviction, is part of the plentiful Pit collection. Other Pit types waiting for that certain someone include: "Bradley" Cage 1; "Ginger" Cage 39; "Roxy" Cage 25; "Brie"-American Bulldog Cage 46. Thislonghaired kitten in the food prep room will be available as soon s he tips the scales at 2.2 pounds for his neuter.

"Dragging and dropping is a great way to get stuff done on your Mac, but DragonDrop makes it even better. DragonDrop lets you set down what you're dragging, leaving you free to find your destination without worrying about keeping the mouse button held down." Great utility (found via Daring Fireball), but shaking with the mouse is a horrible interaction - it's very intensive and error-prone (Aero Shake, anyone?). I'd love for that little drop container to be permanently visible (oh, and a Windows/Linux version would be awesome, of course).

Meet stay-at-home mom Shayne Moore. She spends her time stocking the refrigerator, supervising homework, and driving her kids to sports practices. In the midst of all that, she wrote a book called Global Soccer Mom that's not about soccer at all -- but about how the "soccer mom" demographic can be global thinkers.
After visiting World Vision's headquarters to share her testimony in an all-staff chapel, I sat down to chat with her about the journey that has led her from the kitchen to the White House. Here's what I learned...
Was there a specific experience that prompted you to really get out of your seat and take action against poverty?
In 2002, Bono came through my hometown, but not with his band. He came with a bunch of buses, educating people about poverty and the AIDS pandemic in sub-Saharan Africa. Although I considered myself a somewhat well-educated woman living in North America, this was really the first time that I had heard about the severity of the issue.
The presentations from the World Health Organization and the projections about the disease -- that there would be 25 million AIDS orphans by the year 2010 -- really broke my mother's heart and became a springboard that helped me wake up from my own "suburbia stupor."
My world was really small. I was focused on my babies, which was absolutely appropriate, and that's how it should be. But, I don't think it's an "either/or" situation. I think it can be "both/and." So, I just started really raising my head, looking around the world at what was happening with poverty and disease and other families just like my own. And I started educating myself and educating others.
What kind of difference can a suburban, stay-at-home mom make on such immense, global issues?
When I first learned about AIDS in Africa in 2002, there were less than 30,000 people on anti-retroviral medication. So, if you have AIDS and you're not medicated and you're a mom, you could die in a year, which means your children are at risk of being orphaned. But life-saving medicine can help you live for an additional 20 or even 30 years!
As a mother, that means that you are raising your family. It means we do not have an entire generation and an entire continent that is now orphaned. So, because of all these efforts of both ordinary people like myself and of world leaders, today, about 4.5 million Africans are on life-saving medication... all in a decade.
We really do make a difference when we raise our voices. With the clicks and the petitions, you might think that, "I'm not really doing much" or "By adding my name to this petition, am I really making a difference?" I'm here to tell you that it does make a difference! It really does work because of ordinary people like myself putting pressure on our churches, on our networks, on our domestic leaders, and on our global leaders.
Global Soccer Mom: Changing the world is easier than you think by Shayne Moore
Today, people are bombarded with appeals and messages that compete for their attention. Why should poverty and vulnerable children be a message that we care about?
You know, the number-one cause of death in the developing world for children under the age of five is diarrhea. As mothers in America, can we really wrap our heads around that? No! Because we go around the corner to the nearest Walgreens so we can get some Pedialite. So, it does matter. We need to care.
There's no reason that we are who we are, that we live where we live, and that we have the blessings that we have. We need to take these things with so much gratefulness -- and not feel ashamed of it, but be responsible about it. We need to come alongside women and families just like our own. It's not OK to me -- as a Christian and a woman and mother -- that babies die from diarrhea.
What advice do you have for other ordinary people who desire to make a difference?
I always tell people, don't get bogged down by the statistics and the untenable numbers. The bottom line is that poverty, preventable disease, gender-based violence, famine, and other things that are attacking our generation are ultimately affecting real people in a real place.
One thing that you can do is just start right where you are. Don't think that you have to be a perfectionist about it. You do not have to be a policy expert.
Just start right in your own kitchen, with your own family, with your group of friends. Plug into your church. What's your church really doing to care for our world globally with these issues? And if it's not doing enough, start there, start really putting pressure there! We all have our spheres of influence, and we all have our networks. We all can raise our voice.

Eco Chic or Recycling Freak? Coke Can Tux
When you see a photo of a teen wearing a prom tuxedo jacket fashioned entirely from Coke cans, you have to wonder what the teen in question does with their free time. This guy, a Napoleon Dynamite-lookalike with a penchant for commercialism, has decided to venture into eco-friendly fashion and after the jump you can witness the entire creation of the waistcoat and jacket (plus bowtie!) from metal to masterpiece. Sadly, this look is more Sideshow Bob than Stella McCartney.
David Walliams- Ladies Man, Transvestite, Children's Book Author?
David Walliams, the man who shot to stardom with the launch of Little Britain, has accomplished many things. He's won a ton of awards, just launched state-side, swam across the English Channel and even been spotted with the likes of Natalie Imbruglia and Kate Moss on his arm. Now, the comedian had decided to write a book for children, 'The Boy In The Dress,' about a boy who likes to dress in female clothing and his journey to see the approval of his peers. Illustrated by Quentin Blake, I'm sure it will sell simply on shock factor but it would struggle to be as shocking as this editorial from Parade magazine.
Jeremy Scott and Adidas- I really like it, I mean hate it
The first lovely preview of the Adidas x Jeremy Scott colab is upon us, and I'm looking to those who boldly go where I choose not to… no, fear to tread. Those who say yes to leopard print and knocked off Armani. To those who still rock a greasy mullet and large faux jewel earings. That's right, I'm looking to the Portuguese and their king Cristiano Ronaldo.

You're now chatting with a random stranger. Say hi!
You and the stranger both like religion.
You: Hello my child. What is your name?
Stranger: hey!
You: Can I help you?
Stranger: how are you doing friend?
You: I am doing very well. How are you
Stranger: are you Catholic, or Muslim?
Stranger: I'm alright, thanks
You: I don't know whether or not I am Catholic or Muslim.
Stranger: ok, I guess if you're Trinitarian that makes you a Catholic, are you? and I'm a Muslim btw
You: Am I? I don't know whether or not I am Trinitarian that makes me a Catholic am I. Ugh. You are a Muslim btw? Does it pay well?
Stranger: it will pay in the afterlife. For now I'm on fasting, I do it solely for God alone
You: That is only what you think. How do you like being on it?
Stranger: I love being one
You: You love being one. What do you like about it so much?
Stranger: being on fast, I feel hunger of course. In fasting we don't eat, drink or have sex from morning to evening
You: It goes without saying. How do you like being on it? I do not understand that allusion.
Stranger: it gives a positive spiritual feeling of connection with God. where are you from?
You: "It" being what? I am originally from Universe. Now I live in Heaven. Where are you?
Stranger: in the great universe, the visible part
Stranger: (lowest 3-D heaven)
You: That was a long time ago.
Stranger: ?
You: Can you please rephrase that with fewer ideas, or different thoughts?
Stranger: rephrasewhat?
You: Try saying that with more or less context.
Stranger: You know, I'm from Earth, made of visible matter, you know so it's silly to ask
Stranger: I'm human
You: What is it like growing up there? Tell me a little about your life in Earth made of visible matter me know so it is silly to ask.
Stranger: tell me about you?
You: My instructor was Myself.
He taught me to sing a song.
Would you like me to sing it for you?.
Stranger: no
Stranger: tell me about your life
You: Why not?
You: you said I am life.
Stranger: why not you answer my question and tell me about your life?
Stranger: do you believe in God?
You: Becuase you asked me to.
You: Of course I believe in God
Stranger: in his prophets?
You: I do not understand that allusion.
You: That remark was either too complex or too simple for me. We were talking about prophets.
You have disconnected.

Stranger: What is higher?
Stranger: I believe in Jesus.
You: I would do a search for it.
You: What do you say to people who believe Jesus does not exist?
Stranger: I simply tell them that its there opinion.
You: Why did you tell them?

You: Thank you for your permission.
Stranger: Hades,
Stranger: can i ask you something?

Greenpeace Uses
To Challenge VW
Posted By
Greenpeace is not a huge fan of Volkswagen since the automobile company is against proposed cuts to carbon-dioxide emissions. So how does Greenpeace display its displeasure? They've created a parody of Volkswagen's ever so popular mini-Vader
Super Bowl commercial
. Check it out below!
So I just realized we had an e-mail from Greenpeace in the old TFN inbox that explains the video campaign in a bit more detail...
"Early this morning Greenpeace launched a new global campaign to turn Volkswagen away from the Dark Side.
Volkswagen?s current advert which features a mini Darth Vader, has racked up over 40 million You Tube views after being launched in the half-time ad break during this year?s Super Bowl. It recently won a prestigious Gloden Lion award at Cannes. Now, to highlight VW?s poor environmental record, Greenpeace has spoofed the ad using a cast of young Star Wars fans, and a team including top names from the advertising world, Oscar and international award-winning filmmakers, and Hollywood special effects experts.
The spoof film can be viewed at
The launch of the spoof ? in which other young Star Wars characters challenge VW?s mini Vader while a VW-branded Death Star threatens the earth ? comes on the same day that Greenpeace unveils billboards at two of London?s most prestigious advertising sites. Specialist activist climbers this morning installed spoof ads at London?s largest advertising space at Old Street where the adverts can now be seen on 4 hoardings. Meanwhile, activists dressed as stormtroopers are protesting outside the company's UK HQ in Milton Keynes.
The new global campaign represents a major new push against Europe's largest car manufacturer. Across more than fourteen countries including China, Canada, US, Uk, Germany and France, Greenpeace are highlighting key failures by Volkswagen to live up to the company's carefully crafted reputation as a family-friendly and environmentally responsible car manufacturer. A new Greenpeace report released today details how Volkswagen is using its huge political muscle to lobby against key environmental laws. Despite claiming it wants to be "the most eco-friendly car automaker in the world", VW has also failed to make more efficient and fuel saving cars standard across its fleet - moves that would help the planet and reduce fuel costs for consumers."
Thanks Sara!

Integrated ARM RealView development solution now incorporates all components necessary to develop, debug and validate application code on ARM Powered® systems
CAMBRIDGE, UK – Sept. 16, 2002 – ARM [(LSE: ARM); (Nasdaq: ARMHY)], the industry's leading provider of 16/32-bit embedded RISC processor solutions, today launched new components of its integrated RealView™ debug solution. The new version of the ARM® RealView Debugger™ has been enhanced with two new products, the RealViewICE™ emulator and the RealView Trace™ module, which provide the high performance and flexibility needed to meet and exceed the debug requirements of complex system-on-chip (SoC) projects.
The new RealViewICE emulator provides JTAG emulation for high-speed downloads (in excess of 600k bytes/s over JTAG @ 10MHz). This level of performance is enabled by high-speed host connections via Ethernet or USB. The optional RealView Trace module plugs onto the RealViewICE unit capturing information from the on-chip embedded trace macrocell (ETM), at data rates in excess of 200MHz. The resulting trace information allows the developer to identify difficult software/hardware interaction bugs and optimize performance. These high-performance debug solutions enable reduced development time and improved time-to-market.
The new version of the ARM RealView Debugger has been enhanced with support for the ARM ETM solution, using the new RealViewICE unit and RealView Trace module while also supporting users with existing ARM JTAG and Trace capture devices. The RealView Debugger addresses the evolution of today's systems to multi-core SoCs that contain both DSP and ARM cores on the same chip. Code running on multiple processors can be debugged in the same session using a single debug kernel, enabling independent or synchronized stop, start and stepping. The Debugger solution also supports the ability for breakpoint in one core to force a breakpoint in one or more of the other cores. Extended target visibility allows designers to tailor the Debugger solution to reflect detailed information about the complete target being debugged. Peripheral registers and memory values can be displayed in user configurable meaningful notation.
OS-aware debugging is available today for Symbian OS, ATI Nucleus and ThreadX. ARM is working with its OS Partners to offer additional OS support in the future.
"Developers need better methods of interacting with mixed architecture, system-on-chip (SoC) solutions to collect, analyze and fix system bugs in a faster and more efficient way," said Lester Perera, Debug product manager, ARM. "The ARM RealView Debugger product addresses this need, providing the essential tools to shorten overall time spent in debug."
About the ARM RealView Development Solution
RealView tools provide designers with the best solution for creating and analyzing systems based on ARM technology. They are designed and used by the same engineers who create the ARM architecture. ARM tools are exposed to the highest level of pre- and post-silicon evaluation and development. As a result, the ARM RealView development solution provides the broadest possible range of support for future ARM architectures and derivatives. ARM RealView tools are fully integrated and provide a complete solution to any design or SoC integration challenge, giving the developer higher confidence in first silicon and a faster time-to-market.
The complete ARM RealView development solution includes:
Pricing and Availability
ARM has restructured its tools offering into a range of components and packages. RealView development tools will be available in a variety of combinations according to individual requirements, ranging from a single RealView Debugger solution priced at US$2,000, to a complete debug solution including multi-core debug option, trace and the RealViewICE emulator, at US$12,000.

/** \name Macros for writing interrupt handler functions */#if defined(__DOXYGEN__)/** \def ISR(vector [, attributes]) \ingroup avr_interrupts \code #include <avr/interrupt.h> \endcode Introduces an interrupt handler function (interrupt service routine) that runs with global interrupts initially disabled by default with no attributes specified. The attributes are optional and alter the behaviour and resultant generated code of the interrupt routine. Multiple attributes may be used for a single function, with a space seperating each attribute. Valid attributes are ISR_BLOCK, ISR_NOBLOCK, ISR_NAKED and ISR_ALIASOF(vect). \c vector must be one of the interrupt vector names that are valid for the particular MCU type.*/# define ISR(vector, [attributes])#else /* real code */#if (__GNUC__ == 4 && __GNUC_MINOR__ >= 1) || (__GNUC__ > 4)# define __INTR_ATTRS used, externally_visible#else /* GCC < 4.1 */# define __INTR_ATTRS used#endif
ISR(<thinginthedatasheet>_vect) { // function}
There are two main sources of interrupts: Hardware Interrupts, which occur in response to a changing external event such as a pin going low, or a timer reaching a preset value Software Interrupts, which occur in response to a command issued in software The 8-bit AVRs lack software interrupts, which are usually used for special operating system tasks like switching between user and kernel space, or for handling exceptions.
The External Interrupts are triggered by the INT7:0 pin or any of the PCINT23..0 pins.Observe that, if enabled, the interrupts will trigger even if the INT7:0 or PCINT23..0 pinsare configured as outputs. This feature provides a way of generating a softwareinterrupt.
In perticular I'm trying to update the values of OCR1A and ICR1 registers to define the PWM duty cycle and frequency respectively for Timer1.. I want to do this as an interrupt so that the registers do not get messed with while the Timer is counting. Many Thanks.

North Sydney Oval
Meet the players
See photographic highlights of the game in Gary Sutherland's match gallery
NSW Cup ladder [end of last round]
The Newtown Jets won the first leg of the 2011 Frank Hyde Shield series when they defeated North Sydney 34-24, in the 4th round NSW Cup match played at North Sydney Oval last Saturday.
The Jets led 16-14 at halftime and only secured this win in the game's 77th minute, through a converted try that extended Newtown's lead into the safety zone of ten points.
Phil Graham surges away for his first of two tries.
Francis Vaiotu dives over after clever work by Johnathon Ford.
Brett Lane outpaces defenders to score under posts.
North Sydney displayed their attacking strike-power with a long-distance try in the 4th minute, reminding the Newtown players that this Bears outfit had disposed of Western Suburbs by 56-10 at Campbelltown on the previous Saturday.
The Jets regrouped and took control of the game for the next twenty minutes, during which three tries were scored by Chris Enahoro, Francis Vaiotu and Phil Graham. Norths in turn fought back and completed a solid second quarter with two tries through some rather suspect Newtown forwards defence.
Half-time: 16-14
The two teams traded tries in the second half and the outcome remained very much in the balance, as Newtown held on to a precarious 28-24 lead with ten minutes remaining.
Jets halfback, Mark Kheirallah, had created a masterful try in the 8th minute of the second half through two deftly-placed chip kicks, ending in a try to centre, Brett Lane. The former Balmain Tiger scored his second try when he snapped up a loose ball midfield and just managed to hold off his Bears pursuers in the race to the line.
Jets coach, Greg Matterson, saw some good football in this performance, but expressed concern at the team's continued ability to concede penalties and their vulnerability to long distance tries.
He was pleased with the strong display from the Newtown forwards who overall had worked well together as a unit. Matterson nominated team captain Khalid Deeb, Chris Enahoro, Lama Tasi and Kurt Kara as being the best of a well-performed forward pack.
Willie Mataka had shown some clever footwork in heavy traffic and produced a superb off-load for Phil Graham's match-sealing try. Halfback, Mark Kheirallah, emphasised again that his move into the number seven jersey will continue to provide dividends.
Sydney Roosters head coach, Brian Smith, spoke to the Jets players in the most positive terms after the game. He pointed out that last year's Newtown best player award winner, Tinirau Arona, was making his NRL debut at the SFS the next day.
Smith stressed to the assembled players that promotion to the NRL squad was open to every NSW Cup player, and that hard work and application could bring the same rewards as those attained by Tinirau Arona.
Newtown 34 [Phil Graham 2, Brett Lane 2, Chris Enahoro, Francis Vaiotu tries; Mark Kheirallah 5 goals]
North Sydney 24 [5 tries; 2 goals]
Half-time: Newtown held a slim lead: 16-14.
Officials: Referee, Henry Perenara; Touch Judges, Scott Shepherd, Richard Daizli.
Weather: Cool, overcast, strong southerly breeze in both halves. Playing surface: excellent.
The Jets travel across the Tasman next Friday for what is regarded as one of the tougher away games on the NSW Cup calendar - playing the Auckland Vulcans, the official feeder team to the New Zealand Warriors.
The Vulcans are in top form this season and are coming off a comprehensive win against the Windsor Wolves at Windsor last Saturday. The Jets and Vulcans will mix it up at Mt Smart Stadium next Saturday at 1.00pm AEST.
The Men of League Foundation enables us all to offer respect and support to former players and administrators who built our game and now need help. This wonderful organisation was at the game, collecting gold coin donations.

The three concepts of a new University of New Hampshire logo have been met with overwhelming response, much of which has been disappointment from students and alumni. "Lackluster," "awful," and "abhorrent" are just some of the words being used by students to describe the new and abstract designs.
DURHAM — The three concepts of a new University of New Hampshire logo have been met with overwhelming response, much of which has been disappointment from students and alumni.
"Lackluster," "awful," and "abhorrent" are just some of the words being used by students responding through online social media to the new and abstract designs.
Responses also question why the school hired a professional firm and why design proposals weren't opened to students.
New York design firm Chermayeff & Geismar & Haviv was hired by UNH with a design cost estimate anticipated to fall between $91,400 and $108,200. The goal is to create a more modern design and have something that ties together the institution's three campuses rather than just Durham.
Currently, the tower of Thompson Hall, an image used for more than a decade is used in conjunction with the official seal and athletic logos, but administrators are concerned it provokes thoughts of only the Durham campus.
The university seal and the Wildcat athletic images will not be altered as part of this change.
But the new designs have prompted the Facebook group "UNH Students Against The Change of the Thompson Hall Logo" to be created, which has generated a lot of response.
The first idea, a blue and white outline of the letter "U" with the letters "NH" positioned within it, is one of the least liked of the group.
One response said, "It looks like a tongue. Get your licks at UNH!"
The second concept builds on the idea of initials and pushes the letters "NH" closer together encased within the letter "U."
But that design has generated some confusion leaving at least one student to question, "What is UVF?" on the site and others to concur.
The third image depicts the fact that the university is one of few in the country to hold sea, land and space grants, another that was displeasing to students.
In protest, a campaign is encouraging students to change their profile pictures on Facebook to the current Thompson Hall image.
Student body President Bryan Merrill has reportedly promised students to do his best to have every voice heard regarding the logos before a final decision is made in the hopes administrators will take students' opinions into consideration.
Attempts to reach Merrill were unsuccessful Monday.
During the presentation, designers said a lot of time was spent getting input from the entire student body.
Erika Mantz, director of media relations for the school, said there have been hundreds of responses to the logos and that the majority of those responses have been positive, though officials are still in the process of gathering information and no final decisions have been made at this point.
She said members of the Student Senate were primarily involved with the design firm during initial conversations last fall with groups across campus. Members of the Student Senate were also participants in reviewing the three designs and it was from those conversations the land, sea and space grant design stemmed from.
But presenting the designs to a larger group was done during a busy time in the academic year.
"The decision to share the designs more widely was made very late in the academic year, at a time when students were focused on exams," she said.
The Student Senate has suggested surveying students following commencement and Mantz said administrators agree that would be a good plan.
The official design is anticipated to be unveiled in the fall.
