Post subject: Anyone into hacking Digital Photo Frames (DPF)?...
I recently bought a cheap DPF (aiptek miro III crystal) thinking in extracting the LCD for another project (a portable oscilloscope). I opened and from a high level point of view the circuit is relatively simple in a double side PCB, and you can more or less easily delimit sub-circuits on the PCB. I have detected and classified the following ones:
1) 3.3V volt switching regulator
2) Current switching regulator for the LCD backlight (it's LED based)
3) Core processing chip, an AML6210A from Amlogic (capable of not only display photos but video and play MP3) (no datasheet available
4) 2MB flash chip (datasheet available)
5) SDRAM chip (datasheet available)
6) USB host interface
7) SD card interface
8 ) Some LCD interfacing components (a few transistors)
9) An I2C real time clock with battery backup (a super cap) (datasheet available)
10) A combined -10V and 15V switching regulator (seems to be needed by the LCD)
There's an LCD side area of about 2 fingers that is not being used/shown and is hidden by the frame (looks like usable area, since you can see the dots).
I have a photo of the component area of the PCB with my comments, I'll post it later when I get home.
So, this is actually a micro computer, and now I'm thinking that it would be nice to leave the LCD in there and use the thing as a whole, just adding some extra hardware for the application specific stuff and doing new software (the core chips has mechanisms to download new software either from a USB pen or an SD card). How many cool/useful/whatever projects could be done in such a (cheap) piece of hardware...
So, we now reach to the usual problem: no info on the core chip, AML6210A . The manufacturer's page has only a few high level characteristics, and I got no answer to my email requesting such info (I wonder why
)). So here goes my questions:
1) Does anyone have any info on this chip?
2) Does anyone has some experience on reverse-engineering such system?
3) Do you think is a too-big-of-a-job to reverse engineer this thing?
4) Would someone join in with me on reverse-engineer this thing? I have good knowledge of software and solid basic electronics.
5) What other interesting "full-computer" cheap devices are out there waiting for someone to re-purpose them?
Leave your thoughts...

After a further look, it appears the test points you indicate as being at 3.3v are actually the JTAG. Too bad they are 3.3v because that indicates that the JTAG might be disabled. You can always try to wiggle them and see, but i don't hold out much hope.
Further to my original page, it seems there is a special pin on the CPU which can be used to kick the AML6210 into a state where either the JTAG works, or the flash can be reprogrammed via USB (I don't know which yet). This special pin is connected on my DPF to the 'unused' pin on the small form-factor USB 'B' connector (ahh.. so that's what that pin was for). I believe that injecting a signal into this pin will enable the USB port (which is connected but only acts as a charger on my model, and doesn't enumerate when connected to a USB host). No idea the sequence of commands to put on this pin, but you never know, it might be something simple.
I have interfered with most other pins on this CPU to attempt to activate JTAG, which is normally a pull-up or pull-down resistor somewhere, but to no avail, so I think this pin is the key. It's at the very bottom of the right-hand row of pins as you look at the AML6210DP, hoever it seems the 6210A doesn't have the same pin configuration, making me wonder how much applies to both CPUs.
Nice to finally see a pic of the 6210A though.

Ahhh.... glad to see that there's someone else on it
Ok, some pieces of info:
According to the
, the 6210A can have the software updated by USB or memory card. My guess would be that if you create a file with a special name, it would be loaded as firmware (I've seen some other devices doing it).
The USB on this frame only works as a host. There's no PC connectivity; the DPF only works by will scanning the USB/SD for pics to display.
I'll check those 3.3V lines more carefully and see where do they lead.
It's a good info, that one about the core CPU architecture. I'm trying to get a development toolkit, but the request it will most probably be refused.
The 1st attempt I made was to search for a serial port, but no success. I guessed that there would be a serial debug port
Other than this, my only idea would be to connect a logic analyzer to the address+data+R/W lines and check how Mr. AML6210A boots and what does it do. Unfortunately this is very hard and needs a fast logic analyzer which I don't have...

Dev toolkit? If you are talking about Metaware, which is usually used for development of software for the AML frames, then you'll never get that for free - it'll cost many $$$s.
For compiler, you can use the gcc link on my page. Although the Argonaut core is theoretically customizable right down to the instruction level, I believe most implementations keep the same basic instruction set. I'm not sure how you'd access the more advanced stuff like hardware jpeg/mp3 decompression though.
Depends how badly you want to hack this, but if you have hot air, you can lift the flash chip and put it down on one of the cheap routers, then use the JTAG on the router to read the contents. It's a bit extreme, but possible. This would perhaps allow one to find basic things like the name of the file on the CF card that it reads for firmware updates.
Alternatively scour the internet looking for firmware updates for (any) photo frame
Eventually you will find one containing ARC600/ARC700 instruction set, then you're probably onto something.
I wouldn't really describe myself as 'on' this, in fact my frame is back in usable form again (probably be someone's birthday present), and I'll probably not be bothering to hack it further - looks like too much hard work, but I thought I'd try to give you a head start, and I wish you all the best.

So you've been to pudn too
No idea what you mean about 'dvd' but release_Dist6774_Test1271_Common920.rar is potentially more useful, since it includes PDFs with pinouts of a very similar CPU, however I still don't know how to connect a JTAG.
BTW: I started documenting these frames and the chipsets they use at:

Well, either into it or not into it, you've posted some very usefull info, thanks!!
Thanks you too adipp, I'll look carefully into that info.
I actually don't really care about the jpeg/mpeg stuff. I would be very glad just by controlling the CPU core, the LCD and some I/O. This alone is enough for loads and loads of fun...

AML6213D = 208 pins
AML6213A = 144 pins
How many bloody chips does this company make anyhow?
But... going from the address line A10 of the SDRAM back to the CPU, it seems there is a 4k7 resistor arrangement on the Reddmango (R23, at bottom-left of CPU). R22 is missing, so maybe if we add R22, it will enable JTAG.

Don't know if anyone is still interested in this but I have made some good headway on reversing the P720 photo frame. I have JTAG working and am in the process of REing the OS.

Dutch teen becomes youngest sailor to solo around world
Issued on: Modified:
The Netherland's Laura Dekker,16, became the youngest sailor to complete a solo circumnavigation of the world on Saturday, nearly exactly one year after she embarked on her voyage.
AFP - Dutch teen Laura Dekker on Saturday became the youngest sailor to complete a solo circumnavigation of the world, a year after going to court for the right to make the attempt.
The 16-year-old completed her solo round-the-world journey when she sailed into harbour on the Caribbean island of Sint Maarten at 3:00 pm (1900 GMT).
Dekker, who left the island nearly a year ago to the day -- January 20, 2011 -- beat the previous record by some eight months.
As she turns 17 on September 20, she had to complete her journey before September 16 to beat the record for the youngest sailor to make an unassisted world tour.
Her parents and a 400-strong crowd of well-wishers -- on shore and in small boats -- welcomed the teen, dressed in a tee-shirt and beige shorts.
Just to get to the starting line, Dekker had to fight her way through the Dutch courts, who at first blocked plans for her to cast off a year earlier -- when she was just 14.
The court ordered her placed in the care of welfare officers on the grounds that she was too young to guarantee her safety at sea.
She ran away to Sint Maarten, an island of the Lesser Antilles divided between France and the Netherlands, and police had to escort her back home.
She finally won her court battle with Dutch child welfare authorities in July 2010 -- after 10 months -- and set sail, originally from Gibraltar on August 21, 2010 in her yacht Guppy.
But a change of her planned course led her to make the starting point from her trip Sint Maarten instead.
Born on a boat in New Zealand of a seafaring family, Dekker also lived on a boat in the Netherlands with her father Dick and dog Spot before setting out on her voyage.
The previous record holder was Australian Jessica Watson, who achieved it in May 2010, three days before she turned 17.
But unlike Watson, who circumnavigated non-stop, Dekker sailed from port-to-port and was never at sea for more than three weeks.
Dekker's achievement will not be entered in the Guinness Book of World Records however, as it has refused to recognise records by minors which are considered "unsuitable."
Neither will the World Sailing Speed Record Council -- the official body that validates such records -- acknowledge the feat.
"All that matters is speed, we don't do any personal records, age doesn't matter," John Reed, the council's secretary, told AFP.

Anapa Open | 27 May - 1 June 2014
Anapa, Russia, June 1, 2014 – European teams claimed
all six medals on offer at the FIVB Beach Volleyball World Tour Anapa Open to
prepare for the CEV European Championships in the best way possible.
Martins Plavins and Aleksandrs Solovejs won their first World Tour gold by winning the men's competition on Sunday a day after Victoria Bieneck and Julia Grossner of Germany had done the same with the women's gold on Saturday.
The European Championships take place in Cagliari in Italy and run from June 3-8. Once the action in Sardinia is complete, the athletes return to FIVB competition at the Moscow Grand Slam from June 11-15.
Latvian pair end local hopes at Anapa Open
Plavins and Solovejs ended the hopes of a home win at the Anapa Open when they defeated Russia's Konstantin Semenov and Viacheslav Krasilnikov 2-1 (21-16, 24-26, 15-13) in the men's gold medal match on Sunday.
They took control early in both sets, but despite holding four match points at the end of the second set, Semenov and Krasilnikov rallied to draw level. In the third set the teams went point for point, but once Plavins and Solovejs edged ahead they held on for victory.
"It is always nice to win and it is nice to win when we have a lot of fans cheering for us," Plavins said. "We are happy to win and I've very pleased for Alex because it shows how much he has improved."
German duo claim maiden World Tour golds at Anapa Open
Bieneck and Grossner beat Russia's Ekaterina Syrtseva and Alexandra Shiryaeva 2-0 (22-20, 21-19) in the gold medal match and in doing so demonstrated the current depth of German women's beach volleyball.
Laura Ludwig and Kira Walkenhorst won their first Grand Slam gold in Shanghai this year, Karla Borger and Britta Buthe reached the final of the 2013 FIVB Beach Volleyball World Championships and Ilka Semmler and Katrin Holtwick are regulars on the World Tour podium.
"It is the first time we were in the semifinal and now it is the first time that we have won a gold medal and we are so happy, though we didn't believe it before the tournament," Bieneck said.
"I didn't expect it to be two sets," Grossner added. "They are a very good team and very tough and in every set we were behind for a while and came back, but we always believed we could win this game."
Double the Russian fun as Ukolova and Prokopeva claim bronze
Defending gold medallist Evgenia Ukolova ensured that she didn't leave empty-handed when she and Maria Prokopeva defeated Spain's Angela Lobato Herrero and Paula Soria Gutierrez 2-0 (23-21, 21-19) in the bronze medal match.
The Spaniards were in control early on in the first set, but after they failed to convert two set points the Russians took the initiative and held onto it for the rest of the match.
"We were a bit disappointed that we lost in the semifinal, but our coach said winning a medal was a good result," Ukolova said. "We didn't concentrate well enough at the start, but once we did we were able to play our normal style and take control of the game."
Gabathuler and Gerson edge out fellow Swiss for bronze
In the bronze medal match Philip Gabathuler and Mirco Gerson fought back from losing the opening set to defeat their fellow Swiss Sebastien Chevallier and Alexei Strasser 2-1 (16-21, 21-17, 16-14) and win their first-ever World Tour medals.
"We weren't thinking about the other team, we were more concerned with ourselves and what we were going to do," Gabathuler said. "Of course it was really special to reach the semifinal and then playing in a bronze medal match is always special, no matter whom you are playing."
The double-gender US$150,000 FIVB Anapa Open in Russia ran from Tuesday, May 27 through to Sunday June 1 and the top three teams in each gender received 250, 225 and 200 world ranking points. It was the fifth event and the fourth Open on the 2014 FIVB Beach Volleyball World Tour calendar, which features nine Grand Slams and 11 Open tournaments.
The 2014 World Tour began at the Fuzhou Open in China in April and concludes at the Durban Open in South Africa in December. Next up on the World Tour calendar is the Moscow Grand Slam which runs from June 11-15.

National Women and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day
Women and girls represent more than half of all people living with HIV across the globe. That's almost 18 million women and girls living with HIV worldwide. In the United States, women account for approximately one in four people living with HIV and one in five new HIV infections.
Those numbers are important because preventing and managing HIV can be very different for women than for men -an issue that has often been overlooked since the epidemic was first recognized in 1981. In addition to the sex-specific physical effects of HIV, women also face a variety of gender-specific structural and societal challenges, including inequalities that can increase their vulnerability to HIV and negatively impact their health.
Stigma plays a huge role in perpetuating these inequalities. For example, women living with HIV (WLHIV) who are mothers or caregivers may not seek the medical and emotional care/support they need for fear of revealing their diagnosis to their families, friends, or colleagues.
The Well Project is an organization that works to improve health outcomes and quality of life for women and girls, including trans women, who are living with HIV. They note that reaching women means providing access to meaningful and relevant information, building community support through social media and online connections, and developing and teaching treatment advocacy skills designed specifically for women.
The need to provide women-specific resources is absolutely vital. The Well Project aims to help WLHIV to successfully navigate the HIV care continuum and achieve viral suppression. And the organization also believes in the importance of a holistic approach for improving women's health, well-being, and sense of empowerment. Psychosocial factors and behavioral health issues are important additional influences that must be addressed in order for WLHIV to achieve an optimal quality of life.
The organization maintains a comprehensive online library of educational fact sheets (100+) on HIV and women, and reviews and updates them annually. The sheets address a wide range of issues and aim to improve health literacy, increase engagement in healthcare, and improve overall health outcomes.
The project also offers community support to address stigma and connect WLHIV to an online community of their peers. That effort includes online blogs, A Girl Like Me and Una Chica Como Yo, where women and girls can share their experiences and promote a better understanding of living with HIV while decreasing isolation and stigma.

Most square games do that. It's just an optimization matter for vram
Perhaps, but how does 320*240 make a problem? Especially when we are talking about 1997 and the playstation? And then possibly the laziness to keep the system in place for FF8 and FF9?Perhaps earlier sets had a problem but the overscan even in those cases would be very small (and I don't see how there would be an overscan with NTSC at 525 lines?)... did they really just keep 224 because of the possibility of slight overscan with old sets? And for FF8 and 9 too? Other games moved on....
One of the guys at thelifestream.net found out that a different version of the unused Honeybee Inn room where you can see a TV is featured in the "Plate falling" FMV.
How were the videos created? Are they 3D objects in a high-detailed render, or are they hand-managed 2D frames?
But are you saying the sapphire weapon and so forth were full 3d models?
So to conclude this:They worked in 3d for the backgrounds and movies and probably rendered at a few resolutions before the end of the project. The 2 released resolutions for FF7 are 320*224 game, and 640*448 Toshiba DVD. They worked at 320*224 possibly because of fear of overscan, and/or poor research on game resolution after coming from the SNES. It is also possible it was an early design choice in preparation for the N64. They then kept this design choice because they didn't want to change the engine or because they still had a fear of overscan.Does anyone know for certain if FF9 also keeps to the 320*224 standard (along with game play)?
Interesting. So which is easier/more cost effective? Framebyframe animation or 3d models with camera?
Could there really exist out there masters that are far ahead of 640*448?

Justin Bieber's reported comments hoping that Anne Frank would have been a fan mark, even with the most generous interpretation, a case of good intentions overwhelmed by a clumsy, tone-deaf performance.
But given recent reports of erratic behavior, Bieber's posthumous anointing of Frank as a possible "Belieber" offers another troubling sign – or perhaps a turning point – for a 19-year-old singer who officially lost all perspective when he juxtaposed his enormous success with the enormity of the Holocaust.
There's an inherent risk in mixing pop with the profound. Just ask LL Cool J and Brad Paisley, whose "Accidental Racist," a misguided attempt at racial understanding through song, inadvertently defends and perpetuates stereotypes.
The greatest threat to the Beatles' stardom came when John Lennon declared the group more popular than Jesus. He meant the statement as commentary on society's own loss of perspective amid his band's overwhelming fame. But any nuance drowned in the uproar that met his widely reported sound bite nearly a half-century ago.
It didn't help Bieber that the note he reportedly left in the guestbook at the Anne Frank House museum in Amsterdam came in at tweet length: "Truly inspiring to be able to come here. Anne was a great girl. Hopefully she would have been a Belieber."
The three short sentences don't offer much on Bieber's thoughts after he visited the home where Frank and her family hid from the Nazis for two years before she ultimately perished at the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp at age 15. Thankfully, we have Frank's diary, in which she tells her story in great detail, putting an unforgettable human face on the inhumanity Hitler and his minions wrought.
The controversy over Bieber's guestbook entry arrives amid reports of Michael Jackson-like travails with his pet monkey, scuffles with paparazzi, and a growing penchant for tattoos and showing up late to concerts. Even if his comments unwittingly convey insensitivity and self-absorption, we can only hope that Bieber left the Frank House with a new outlook on his great fortune.
The Bieber storm is flooding Twitter, where, as The Associated Press noted, some devoted fans of the world's current most popular teenager tweeted they never heard of Frank, one of the 20th Century's most important teens.
That's shocking, but there's an opportunity for some good to emerge from the latest Bieber flap. If he hasn't already, maybe Bieber will read Frank's classic "The Diary of a Young Girl" – and urge his fans to follow suit. Then perhaps one day all the young Beliebers will understand.

Baltimore, MD – Researchers from the University of Maryland School of Medicine are coordinating an international team of scientists working to identify genes or gene variants that may make a person more likely to have a particular type of stroke called an ischemic stroke. Ischemic strokes are caused by a blood clot in the brain and are the most common type of stroke, representing more than 80 percent of all cases. Stroke is a leading cause of disability and the third leading cause of death in the United States.
"This multinational collaboration will be one of the largest stroke genetics research projects ever launched. Recent studies in conditions such as diabetes and lupus have shown that a large sample size, such as the one we will be using, can be vital in helping to uncover genetic influences in a complex disease, so we are eager to see what genetic variants we may find for stroke and what promise these discoveries may hold for prevention and treatment," explains Steven Kittner, M.D., M.P.H., principal investigator, professor of neurology at the University of Maryland School of Medicine and a researcher at the Baltimore VA Medical Center.
"Using DNA analysis of blood samples from at least 6,000 stroke patients, we will be able to interrogate more than one million genetic variants for their association with stroke. The design and size of the study increase the chance that we may find genetic variants that were previously not suspected to be linked to stroke," says Braxton Mitchell, Ph.D., M.P.H., professor of medicine at the University of Maryland School of Medicine and leader of the multi-institutional team that will analyze the data.
With funding from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), this initiative brings together 17 different research institutions: 12 in the United States and five in Europe. The project, which should take about four years to complete, furthers the NIH efforts in the field of ischemic stroke genetics and genome wide association studies (GWAS).
"Stroke is a challenging disease to study because it can be due to a wide variety of causes and pathological processes. One important goal for this international team will be to develop standardized, validated and easily replicated methods to identify stroke subtypes, which may account for variations in stroke occurrence, severity, complications, response to therapy and recovery," explains Katrina Gwinn, M.D., NINDS project director.
Established risk factors, such as hypertension and cigarette smoking, are not sufficient to explain who will suffer from a stroke and who will be spared. Classifying strokes into subtypes using a standardized method will allow the researchers to drill down into the genetics that may be linked to a particular subgroup of stroke. In addition, the component elements leading to inclusion into or exclusion from each subgroup will be recorded, allowing for the future development of new approaches to classification. The information will be made public via the Database of Genotype and Phenotype (dbGaP).
"This consortium, led by our University of Maryland neurologists, has a unique opportunity to evaluate stroke data in a standard classification to create a resource for stroke investigators around the world for years to come," adds E. Albert Reece, M.D., Ph.D., M.B.A., vice president for medical affairs at the University of Maryland and dean of the University of Maryland School of Medicine.
Nearly 800,000 strokes occur each year in the United States. A stroke disrupts blood flow to the brain causing cells to die, increasing the risk of permanent brain damage, disability or death. Symptoms include numbness or weakness on one side of the body, sudden loss of vision, sudden confusion or trouble speaking, dizziness or loss of balance, and sudden, severe headache. A stroke can cause someone to have permanent difficulty with walking, hearing and vision, and speaking and understanding speech. Strokes can also cause emotional changes.
Certain medical factors can increase a person's likelihood of having a stroke. These include having had a previous stroke, diabetes, high blood pressure, atrial fibrillation, and heart disease. Lifestyle factors such as smoking, being overweight and drinking too much alcohol can also increase a person's risk for stroke.

A former police officer is under investigation for allegedly stealing more than $25,000 from the police union�s bank account while he served as the group�s president.
Nathan W. Fiske Sr., 33, of Holden resigned June 21 at the beginning of a disciplinary hearing with selectmen over the misuse of union funds, according to Police Chief Mark Leahy.
�Just as the hearing was beginning, we were all sitting there ready to go, and he chatted with his attorney and then asked if he could resign,� the chief said.
Mr. Fiske was hired as a dispatcher in 2007. While working for the town, he also worked part time as a Berlin police officer, Mr. Leahy said. He was hired as a full-time patrolman in Northboro in January 2007.
Mr. Fiske served as the president of the patrolman�s union from September 2008 to May 2012, when he was voted out and Detective Jeffrey R. Noel was elected to succeed him.
Detective Noel said he and other union officials repeatedly asked Mr. Fiske for the union checkbook, but he never relinquished it.
When the union began preparing for contract negotiations earlier this year, Detective Noel went to the bank and had his and the other new union officials� names put on the account.
�I was shocked after we left the bank we noticed all of these transactions appeared to be nonunion activities,� Detective Noel said. �We thought he was a good cop before he did this. He betrayed us.�
The detective said about 25 patrolmen, sergeants and dispatchers pay $12 a week union dues into the account.
Chief Leahy said he, too, was shocked to learn of the alleged theft.
�I did not see this coming at all,� he said. �What has occurred here is no reflection on the men and women who work in this building. They are 100 percent outraged by this.�
Mr. Fiske�s lawyer, Robert Iacovelli of Worcester, could not be reached for comment.
An investigation is being conducted by the office of District Attorney Joseph D. Early Jr.

Since my coverage about Korean BB Cream or Blemish Balm Cream last September, our local market has seen more of the product from brands like The Face Shop, Missha and Skin Food. And now, besides the Korean beauty stores, you can also purchase BB Cream off department stores like John Little which carry the Lotree BB Cream as well as Watsons which sells Rojukiss BB Cream and most recently, the coveted BRTC BB Cream.
Best BB Cream
Right from the beginning, the best BB Cream was said to be from BRTC, a trusted and well-known brand in Korea followed by Dr Jart BB Cream. Both products were acclaimed for their quality and formulation. In fact, I also highlighted a review on BRTC BB Cream which confirmed that it is the best of the 10 different brands sampled.
Retail price at S$55
So now, you can get your hands on the highly raved BB Cream from Watsons, except that the price tag isn't cheap. The 40ml BRTC Gold Caviar BB Cream with SPF20 PA++ is going at S$55. But still, substantially cheaper than what you can find if you've tried to purchase it online.
Triple-function BB Cream
Described as a triple-function BB Cream, the product acts to provide excellent makeup coverage for skin imperfections like blemishes and uneven skin tone to promote a smoother and radiant complexion as well as, deliver skin care benefits such as whitening, wrinkle repair function and UV-block functions. No wonder some girls on the forums were saying that their skin conditions improved with the usage of this product.
Ingredients listed
The cream is said to have a high concentration of caviar extract and also contains white gold ingredient which supplies rich nutrients as wll as "shaping care for droopy skin." The ingredients are listed as follows on the box but don't ask me what marked ingredients mean though.
Functioning ingredients:
Arbutin, Adenosine, Titanium Dioxide, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate
Other ingredients:
Caviar Extract (1.5%), White Gold Substances (0.01%), Human Oligo Peptide-1, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, Hyaluronic Acid, Allantoin, Green Tea Extract.
Marked ingredients:
Parahydroxybenzoate, Chlorphenesin
Usage of BRTC BB Cream
Many girls have queries on how to use the BB Cream and according to instructions on the box of the BRTC BB Cream, you should apply a small amount of the cream at the last stage of your basic skincare routine. Which means, after your moisturizer and sunscreen. You can omit the sunscreen if you want since this contains titanium dioxide. And according to the instructions, there is no need to use concealer, make-up base, primer or foundation. Just apply your powder.
No tester at Watsons
Unfortunately, I couldn't test the quality of the BRTC BB Cream at Watsons. They only have boxes lying around. But because I wasn't planning on buying, so I didn't try to ask either. Well, much as I like to try it, I know that I will probably not use much of the product if I should buy it. So, better save myself the 55 bucks now.

Here is my article that ran Saturday about
Shelton's Bear Creek Cemetery
. Access to the historic cemetery is now even more limited with the opening on a new senior living facility right next to it. While
Anthony Bond
, with help from residents and Irving Parks and Recreation, tries to maintain the cemetery, reaching it will be much harder now.
--Tiny Shelton's Bear Creek Cemetery in Irving has had a rough existence, just as many of those buried there did. A resting place for former slaves and others, the small patch of graves sat directly in the path of State Highway 161. An uproar caused the freeway to move ever so slightly, preserving the cemetery. Yet access from the west was gone.
Now, access from the east may meet the same fate.
A sprawling senior living facility has just opened. And its stone wall backs right up to the cemetery. There's not an inch to spare.
And that breaks Anthony Bond's heart.
"This is sacred ground," Bond said as he led cleanup efforts a few weeks ago.
Maintaining the cemetery is a challenge as plants and weeds flourish. Bond, a longtime community activist, leads maintenance projects from time to time.
The bigger concern now is how to reach the property.
Bond remains optimistic something can be worked out. He's talked to Diane Wheeler, the owner of the new senior facility called Chateau on Wildbriar Lake, and she's willing to help.
"We'd like to do what we can to make it accessible," Wheeler said.
The construction removed some land so the cemetery seems to rest on even higher ground. A ramp from her property may not work since the construction crew had to build a retaining wall to prevent erosion. A ramp from the south might work. Bond said he's working with the Texas Department of Transportation to see if it can help with the ramp.
The dilemma troubles not only Wheeler and Bond but also Frances James, who's known as the "Cemetery Lady" for her extensive knowledge of local cemeteries.
James helped Bond obtain a Texas Historical Marker for Bear Creek Cemetery in 2001. She put together the historical information for the state to write on the marker. Now, reaching that marker is nearly impossible.
"The problem is the gate is now 20 feet in the air," James said.
TxDOT fenced the property when the highway was built. Two gates provide entry.
Another problem is that the cemetery is on private property. At one time, there was interest in deeding the cemetery plot to the nonprofit Bear Creek Development Association, which would ultimately pass the land to a cemetery association.
But those plans fizzled.
Without a perpetual care fund or association, protecting the plot is difficult.
At least those buried at Bear Creek Cemetery still have relatives around to try to fight for the property. Many smaller cemeteries don't, said James. Her mission is to save these forgotten resting places.
"These cemeteries are owned by those buried there," she said.
Bear Creek in particular, she noted, contains graves of some of the first black citizens after the Civil War.
Wheeler agreed this history should be preserved. She's honoring the cemetery by naming the complex's fishing pier Shelton Bear Creek Fishing Pier.
She's also offered the parking lot for cemetery visitors to use and plans to engage residents in volunteering to help with upkeep.
"We should all try to honor and respect those who reside there," she said.

Oregon grass seed growers and nurserymen were hit hard when the housing market crashed in the early days of the recession.
Barns up and down the Willamette Valley were filled with seed no one wanted, and nursery producers watched helplessly as stock grew larger with no prospects of a sale. The last few years have been a challenge for everyone, and disastrous for too many.
There's some indication that both industries are beginning to see an uptick as new homes are being built and the used inventory is beginning to move again. Grass seed prices are up, and nurserymen say they're receiving orders at a better pace than the previous few years.
But the good news of increased demand is bittersweet, offset by the fact that supply has also contracted. Many growers have either switched crops or gone out of business altogether.
Markets always find equilibrium. Unfortunately, it's often at the expense of earnest men and women who couldn't hang on.

Compact. Two-sided printing, copying, scanning, and faxing. 30-page ADF. Prints on optical media. Touch screen. Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and Wi-Fi Direct connectivity.
Sub-par text quality. Paper capacity low for use in a home office.
Bottom Line
The Epson Expression Premium XP-800 Small-in-One Printer may be petite for an MFP, but it packs a lot of features and performance into its small frame.
As befitting its name, the Epson Expression Premium XP-800 Small-in-One Printer ($279 list) is compact for a multifunction printer (MFP). But although small in size—which lets it fit in spaces that most other MFPs can't—it's large in features and performance. Though primarily a home MFP, it adds enough business features to make it suitable for light-duty use in a home office as well, and brings enough to the table to make it an Editors' Choice.
Similar Products
The XP-800 prints, copies, faxes, and scans. You can fax either from the printer or from your computer (PC Fax). You can print from or scan to a USB thumb drive or memory card, and scan to a PC or network folder, to email, and the cloud. It supports Google Cloud Print, Epson Connect—which lets you print by emailing the job to your printer—and Apple AirPrint.
The all-black XP-800 measures 7.5 by 15.4 by 13.3 inches when closed, and weighs 21 pounds. The adjustable-tilt front panel includes a 3.5-inch gesture-based color touch screen. On top is a 30-page reversing automatic document feeder for copying, scanning, and faxing two-sided documents.
The main paper tray is 100 sheets, fine for home use but low for a home office, and it adds a 20-sheet photo-paper tray, as well as the capacity to print on CDs and DVDs. There's also a rear paper feed for card stock and envelopes. It has an automatic duplexer for printing on both sides of a sheet of paper.
To help with photo printing, in addition to cyan, magenta, yellow, and black cartridges, the XP-800 includes a photo black cartridge, with good results, as you'll see later in the review.
The XP-800 connects to a computer via USB, or to a network by Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Wi-Fi Direct, which lets you quickly connect with any Wi-Fi-enabled mobile device. I tested it over an Ethernet connection with a PC running Windows Vista.
Print Speed
The XP-800 zipped through our business applications suite (as timed with QualityLogic's hardware and software) at 5.2 effective pages per minute (ppm), much faster than the Editors' Choice HP Photosmart Premium Fax All-in-One's 3.0 ppm and its replacement, the HP Photosmart Premium Fax e-All-in-One's. (The HP Photosmart Premium Fax All-in-One has been discontinued, but is still available through e-tailers.) It was equally fast at photo printing, averaging 26 seconds per 4-by-6 print to the Premium Fax All-in-One's 1:07 and the Premium Fax e-All-in-One's 1:14.
Output Quality
The XP-800's overall output quality was average for an inkjet. Text quality was below par for an inkjet, fine for schoolwork or in-house business use but not for resumes or documents requiring smaller fonts. Graphics quality was typical of inkjets; issues included dithering (graininess, and in some places fine dot patterns). Also, some thin colored lines were barely visible. Photos were above par; a photo with a dark background showed some tinting, but most of the prints were true photo quality, suitable for framing.
The XP-800's running costs of 4.6 cents per monochrome page and 13.4 cents per color cartridge, based on Epson's prices and yields of its most economical ink cartridges, are slightly higher than those of the HP Photosmart Premium Fax All-in-One (4.4 cents per monochrome page, 11.6 cents for color) and HP Photosmart Premium Fax e-All-in-One (4.2 cents per monochrome page, 11.4 for color), particularly for color printing.
The Epson Expression Premium XP-800 Small-in-One Printer has much to recommend it, with a good mix of home features with office-friendly features like fax, a wide range of connectivity choices, and a 30-sheet reversing ADF giving it some home-office chops, though the 100-sheet standard paper capacity limits it to light-duty use in a home office.
The Editors' Choice HP Photosmart Premium Fax All-in-One and its successor, the HP Photosmart Premium Fax All-in-One each have slightly higher (125-sheet) paper capacity, and a larger 50-sheet reversing ADF that, like the XP-800's ADF, works for copying, scanning, and faxing two-sided documents. They have slightly lower costs per monochrome page and considerably lower per color page than the Epson, and can print better text (though the XP-800's text is suitable for general use.
The XP-800 is much faster than the two HP models, is flush with features, and has the convenience of a 3.5-inch touch screen while the HP MFPs' screens are non-touch LCDs. It's a great package for home and home-office use, and worthy of an Editors' Choice.

The basics: Gina recounts both how she fell in love with her ex-husband and how she came to cheat on him with her current husband.
My thoughts: This novel was my first experience with Anne Enright, and her writing enraptured me from the beginning. She has a way with observational detail I adored:
"I end up talking to a woman who is sitting beside a plate of chocolate Rice Krispie cakes and working her way through them in a forgetful sort of way. They have mini-marshmallows on top. She goes to pop one in her mouth, then she pulls back in surprise. 'Ooh, pink!' she says."In such an observational novel, it's difficult to separate Enright's writing from Gina's observation, and I loved both. For the first half of this novel, I was utterly enthralled and bemoaned never having read Enright before. As the novel progressed, however, my adoration became more measured. Gina skillfully articulates her foibles in love, and I enjoyed her perspective and humor. I couldn't help but think, though, that neither man was anywhere near worthy of her. I couldn't understand what led her to marry Conor, and I couldn't fathom why she cheated, even in an unhappy marriage. Neither man came across as particularly charming, intelligent or passionate. I was moved enough by Enright's writing to believe their unlikability was intentional:
"If love was a kind of knowledge then he could not love me, because he hadn't the faintest clue."Despite my lack of adoration for the men, there were still passages that made me want to believe in one of these troubled relationships:
"You can never catch the moment when it happens, but it always does: that split second when awkwardness flowers into intimacy."This novel is filled with adultery and its impact on spouses, siblings, and children. The star of this novel, however, is Enright's writing and perhaps her exploration of theme.
Favorite passage: "I feel that the world might be better it it was run by girls who are nearly twelve, the ability they have to be fully moral and fully venal at the same time."
The verdict: As a story of Gina, I adored it. As a novel, however, the male characters didn't come through for me, and I wished for one of them to shine. Regardless, Enright's writing is top notch, and this slim novel is worth reading.

LA's Stunning Chiandra Washington
"Obviously, you need beauty in this industry but you also need to be business minded,� Washington adds. "This is one of the toughest industries and not for the weak minded.�
Where She's From: Lovely Chiandra Washington, a.k.a. Sexy Shawn, was born and raised in Los Angeles, CA. Since she was able to promote her skills effectively in 2005 her career took off to supermodel status.
She went to School in California and attended some College in North Carolina before deciding to launch her career. "I have so many aspirations, I don't know where to start discussing them,� she tells The Black Star News.
"The most important thing I learned from my mom was to stay honest and humble,� she says. "As quick as you can get fame, God can just as quickly take it away it you take him for granted. My mother instilled in me the desire to give back and treat people the way I would want to be treated—not matter how they may be treating you.�
Still, she concedes that sometimes the traveling and living from a suitcase and one hotel to another can be tiring—but there are also rewards in the industry.
Where She's At: She has had numerous advertisement campaigns, appeared on several fashion shows and music videos. "I love it all because of my versatility,� she says. "There is nothing I can't do, from high fashion to glamour.� Washington is signed to an ad agency and is also represented by a manager and lawyer. She cautions others to be careful –and to control their careers—so that sharks don't take advantage of them.
Where She's Heading: In addition to magazine covers, she also completed her first season on New York's Fashion Week. "That was a huge accomplishment, and doing a Guess Jeans campaign,� she recalls.
"Obviously, you need beauty in this industry but you also need to be business minded,� she adds. "This is one of the toughest industries and not for the weak minded.�
How does Washington get ready to step out? "The jeans I wear are Sevens because they are long enough for my legs,� she says. "I like Baby Phat also if the length is right. I only wear MAC products as far as makeup. It lasts and the pigments are incredible. I like Perry Ellis 360 as far as perfume and any type of shoe. I am a shoe freak.�
Washington's Words Of Wisdom: "Live life everyday like it's your last.�
Washington's Secrets To Success: "Stay on your grind-morning, noon, and night.�
Washington's Three Favorite Movies: "Shaw Shank Redemption, Coming To America, and Friday.�
Washington's Three Favorite Books: "Coffee Will Make You Black, The Notebook, Cheaters.�
First Three Things Washington Would Do As President: "I would help reduce unemployment, help reduce the price of gas, and provide further assistance for the victims of Katrina.�
At The End Of Her Career Words To Describe her: "She came, she saw, and she conquered.�

Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland
The Ministry for Foreign Affairs promotes the security and welfare of Finland and the Finns, and works for a secure and fair world.
The Ministry for Foreign Affairs concentrates on foreign and security policy, trade policy and development policy as well as on significant foreign policy issues and international relations in general. The Ministry also assists other branches of government in the coordination of international affairs.
The Finnish Foreign Service – the Ministry and approximately one hundred diplomatic and consular missions – focuses on serving Finns, the Finnish economy and society at large, the country's political leadership and Parliament.
Finland's welfare is increasingly based on knowledge, creativity and innovation. The relatively small domestic market offers limited possibilities for success. It is therefore of the utmost importance to work more effectively at an international level.

Rosette plants. These aquarium plants grow from a crown in or around the gravel bed. Each leaf grows directly from this crown. There are several types of rosette plants. These include Amazon swords, Cryptocoryne's, Aponogeton's, Vallisneria's and Nymphea's or lilies. Swords, crypts, and Val's spread by throwing off runners with young plants growing along them. When these plants grow in size they can be separated from the "mother plant". Val's and swords need to be planted with the crown above the gravel surface; crypts need to have the crown buried. Aponogeton's and Nymphea's grow from tubers. The plant can be removed from the tuber and a new plant will grow again. Usually I use these as solitary aquarium plants in an aquascape.
Directions: Trim roots below all plants leaving around an inch of length. Plant swords and vals by making hole in substrate with your thumb, push the plant down as far as possible and then close substrate around it and pull it up so just the tip of the crown is showing. Do the same with cryptocorynes but leave the crown just buried.

When she does open up to you, it's everything. Being emotionally naked with someone is how she expresses her love.
When your light shined on me, it was everything. But when it was shining somewhere else, it was so cold.
Please, don't forget about all the nights you cried till you had no tears left. Don't ever forget about why you broke up.
Your love is a gift.
What you don't understand is nothing that's worthwhile is ever easy.
You loved your ex more than you have ever loved anyone - but falling in love with someone should never result in falling out of love with yourself.
But the bottom line is, I don't care what the reason was. I'm done hearing your excuses.
Like an emotional vampire, you sucked my love dry.
Most importantly, you are falling back in love with yourself. You are taking your life back from what broke you.
You did the hardest break-up that your heart will ever have to endure. You need to understand how brave you are.

"Why couldn't I have been the year with Obamacare?"
Oh, 2011! Can it be it's only been a year since I knew ye? This was a year of firsts: The first time I had a kitten who liked to lick new, clean plastic with an almost fetishistic zeal; the first year I lived in Los Angeles without working the floor at my beloved Amoeba Music Hollywood (I miss you, desperate holiday shoppers!); the first year I grew more than one grey hair at the same time (I blame you, traffic on Fairfax!)
It was also the year I suddenly, and without any obvious explanation, decided I loved and wanted to see any and all films of the horror genre. This came as a surprise to me. My boyfriend accuses me often of only liking films where nothing ever happens – preferably with a lone clock ticking in the corner of an otherwise quiet room. It annoys me when he claims this, mostly because I cannot defend myself.
The horror section in Amoeba Music's DVD section provided me with many hours of happy judging-a-book-by-its-cover moments. Some gems I was hypnotized by were…

NFLPA Using NFL Icons Sanders, Dorsett In Marketing Push Spotlighting CBA Conflict
By Barry Janoff, Executive Editor
November 26, 2010: The escalating discord between the NFL and the NFL Players Assn. regarding the collective bargaining agreement situation, which could lead to a lockout/shutdown of the 2011 season, continues to make news, even on Thanksgiving Day and weekend.
The NFL's collective bargaining agreement is due to expire in March, with ongoing but increasingly strained negotiations revolving around such issues as an expanded 18-game season, salary caps and revenue sharing.
In its latest volley, the NFLPA claims, "Team owners have made a series of moves designed to lock out the players and fans." Supporting that position is a new commercial from the NFLPA staring NFL Hall of Famers Tony Dorsett and Barry Sanders. The two former running backs not only shared their memories about playing on Thanksgiving Day, but imploring football fans to voice their opinions to "block the lockout."
The commercial is part of a broader "Block the Lockout" effort from the Washington, D.C.-based NFLPA that is urging fans to sign a petition directed toward Commissioner Roger Goodell and NFL team owners to keep the NFL in play next season.
"When you talk about Thanksgiving, you're talking about football," says Dorsett, a member of the Dallas Cowboys from 1977-1987. "It was an honor for us to be a part of a franchise that was selected to play and entertain the country."
Dorsett then offers, "I have a lot of deep, found memories about fans. The fans are the ones who make 'superstars' superstars. If there's a lockout, nobody wins."
Sanders says, "A lockout would be devastating. We don't want to take the fans for granted. We want to keep them first. We hope that their voice is heard. And we hope that there is not a stoppage."
Dorsett adds, "Fans are what make this game. Let's do the right thing for the fans."
The spot then directs viewers to a micro-site at the NFLPA Web site, Nfllockout.com, to sign a petition directed at NFL commissioner Roger Goodell and NFL team owners. The petition reads:
"We the fans of the NFL, demand that you NOT lock out players in 2011. The players want to play football and we passionately want to see America's most popular sport.
"As fans and members of our local communities, a lockout would have a devastating impact on our local and regional economies. Stadium employees will be jobless, and sports bars, police officers, restaurants, hotels and various support staff who work for this game will also be affected. Simply put, these tough times will get even tougher for Americans.
"It is estimated that more than 150,000 jobs would be impacted by a lockout and cause more than $140 million in lost revenue in each NFL city. We implore you to do the right thing and guarantee that players, fans and everyone who enjoys the NFL will not have to endure a lockout in 2011."
A looping messing at the Web site also warns, "Happy Thanksgiving, fans! Have a wonderful day and enjoy the Thanksgiving games! We may not have this tradition in 2011."
"The best way to ensure uninterrupted NFL football in 2011 is for the union to stop asking everyone else to solve its problems and to sit down and engage in serious, constructive bargaining."
Earlier this week, the NFLPA sent out a letter from its president, Kevin Mawae, to politicians whose constituents were located within NFL markets. It read, in part: "During one of the worst economies since the Great Depression, NFL owners are preparing to cancel the 2011 season and, in the process, devastate [those] businesses and stadium workers who count on football Sundays to make ends meet. It is our hope that the owners will shelve this plan and negotiate in good faith to ensure that we are playing for the fans in 2011."
The NFL issued an official response to that letter, which it posted at its NFLlabor.com Web site. In part, the NFL's letter read: "The union's request for state and local political leaders to intercede in the negotiations ignores and denigrates the serious and far more substantial problems that those leaders, and that state and local workers across the country face. We can resolve our own issues as we have done many times in the past but the NFLPA has to want to participate in resolving them."
The NFL's response went on to read, "Nobody — least of all NFL owners — wants to shut down our business. The best way to ensure uninterrupted NFL football in 2011 is for the union to stop asking everyone else to solve its problems and to sit down and engage in serious, constructive bargaining. If the union does so, we can and will reach an agreement." (Full letter here.)

Britain's Got Talent winner Pudsey the dog took a 'bow wow' on the red carpet at the premiere of his big screen debut today.
The dancing dog - who won the nation's hearts when he and owner Ashleigh Butler won the ITV talent show in 2012 - arrived in London's Leicester Square with the 19-year-old and Britain's Got Talent judge David Walliams. He voices the pooch in Pudsey The Dog: The Movie.
The film sees Pudsey taking the lead in a battle to save his village from dog-hating landowner Mr Thorne, played by John Sessions.
Walliams, 42, said: "When we audition people for Britain's Got Talent we see hundreds and hundreds of people, so your expectations are quite low.
"And then as they did their Flintstones routine we thought 'wow!' This is really, really memorable, the public are going to love it because it's going to appeal to everyone of all ages. And they just got better and better and better and now here's Pudsey with his very own film premiere!"
Despite playing the voice of Pudsey, Walliams revealed the dog never remembers him, unless he hides a treat in his pocket.
Talking about finding Pudsey's personality, he said: "I used to do his voice round my house as a bit of a joke, but I didn't know how the script would turn out.
"And when I realised he's like a kid in this family, that was really the key to it, thinking he's like a kid who's never grown up."
Walliams, who has a dog of his own, admitted he prefers dogs to cats.
He said: "I think dogs make better pets. I had cats growing up and dogs are more pleased to see you and cats do this thing where you stroke them for a while and they're having a perfectly nice time and they suddenly go (growls). And dogs don't do that, so definitely I'm a dog person."
Butler performed with Pudsey on the red carpet, and revealed her pet pooch had known something special was happening as they got ready for the premiere together.
She said: "Pudsey was very, very excited this morning. When he did both his routines he was showing off a little bit. When he saw the crowds he was like 'This is my day!'
"I've always said he loves crowds and people cheering and today proved that."
And she insisted she does not mind that it is not Ashleigh and Pudsey: The Movie.
Butler said: "I think it was always going to be just Pudsey. I spoke to Nick (Moore) the director before the final script was done and we both agreed it would be better for me to be behind the camera, making sure Pudsey performed to the best of his ability.
"The most difficult part of filming was just getting him to act. You can't teach a dog to act, teach it to run off with another family and look like he's in love, and some of the looks he gives are just perfect."
Directed by Horrid Henry: The Movie's Nick Moore and written by Paul Rose, the film also stars Jessica Hynes, Olivia Colman, Peter Serafinowicz and Amanda Holden.
Hynes, who plays Pudsey's adopted mother in the film, attended the premiere with her partner and three children. She revealed they had taught their own dog some tricks, inspired by Pudsey.
The W1A star said: "She can jump through a hoop, if you bribe her with cheese. Yeah, she likes cheese."
And Sessions revealed his villainous character was supposed to have a cat in the film, but her scenes were cut down after she attacked him on set.
The actor said: "We had a problem with the cat. She was a Siamese called Amber. She was good on the first day before filming and then she started jumping on my head and scratching me.
"You can see her on the poster, she's damn lucky to be on the poster considering she got sacked on the first day."
Luke Neal, Izzy Meikle-Smith and Luke Tittensor play Molly, George and Tommy, the family who adopt Pudsey.
Pudsey The Dog: The Movie opens in cinemas on Friday July 18.

Last week, we took a tour of BuzzFeed and interviewed its cofounder and CEO, Jonah Peretti, and editor-in-chief, Ben Smith.
The full story will run later this week. In the meantime, there was one mystery Peretti solved for us while we were there.
A few months ago, Chris Dixon posted an email Peretti sent to his staff. In the email, Peretti wrote:
Venture capitalists don't like funding companies that have reporters on staff. In the early days of BuzzFeed, I had several VCs say they were interested in investing if we could figure out a way to fire all the editors and still run the site. I'm not joking. Tech investors prefer pure platform companies because you can just focus on the tech, have the users produce the content for free, and scale the business globally without having to hire many people.
Which investors was Peretti talking about?
Union Square Ventures, for one.
Peretti says that when BuzzFeed was raising its first round of capital, outside of the money Ken Lerer and John Johnson had put in initially, USV nearly invested. Fred Wilson's firm presented Peretti with a term sheet.
"There were things they didn't love about the business. They liked me, but they didn't like that we had editors," Peretti said. "A lot of people [not just USV] were pro-tech, anti-human."
Peretti ended up taking an investment from SoftBank instead. Eric Hippeau, who was a partner there, offered him a chance to stay involved in both The Huffington Post and BuzzFeed at the same time.
"Union Square Ventures gave me a term sheet. It wasn't like they said, 'We never back companies with reporters,'" Peretti clarified.
"But their thesis was strongly about a network of engaged users. Even a company like Zynga didn't quite fit their thesis because it required hiring creative people to make content that could hopefully take off and be a hit, as opposed to making a platform where everyone could create content. That's kind of the democratic vision of what [Union Square Ventures does], and they're an amazing firm. But there's always an initial reaction of, 'Could you do BuzzFeed as a market for journalists to post stuff? Then it could scale to Brazil.'
"I think Fred Wilson was involved in [financial news site] TheStreet in its early days, so it's not like he's anti" media startups, Peretti continued. "But there is this [general investor sentiment that] it's hard to build a real media business."
We asked Peretti why Union Square Ventures didn't partake in its latest $15.5 million round of financing. Peretti said they looked at it. "The truth is," he said, "we don't fit their thesis."
"We think Jonah is a great entrepreneur and that he has built a great business," Union Square Ventures partner Brad Burnham said. Burnham and Wilson looked at the BuzzFeed deal together. "We are thrilled that he is building this business in New York. We miss great companies all the time. For various reasons we chose not to invest in Airbnb, Uber, and Square. Luckily in the venture business you do not have to be right all of the time."

Has any of you guys gone through Burgess's paper The distribution of quadratic residues and non-residues?
I'm having a hard time trying to disentangle his Lemma 2 (on page 108).
Do you know if there is a simpler presentation of it somewhere? For instance, is there a way to rephrase the following paragraph without resorting to the word "class"? I don't even know for sure what he is referring to by it...
"Divide the sets of values of $m_{1}, \ldots, m_{2r}$ into two classes, putting in the first class those which consist of at most $r$ distinct integers, each occurring an even number of times, and putting into the second class all other sets. The number of sets in the first class is less than $(2r)^{r}h^{r}$, and for each set the inner sum over $x$ is at most $p.$... The number of sets in the second class is at most $h^{2r}$ (trivially)."
I would really appreciate any suggestions you wish to make. If you have written about this and gained some intuition on those portions of the article (lemma 2 and lemma 3), I would be more than glad to have an opportunity to take a look at your write-ups.

Pearson books in another pre-Games race
Champion hurdler Sally Pearson has made a last-minute decision to squeeze another race into her pre-Commonwealth Games schedule, worried about her fitness for Glasgow.
Pearson, who tweaked her hamstring in early June, is already set to race at a meet in Switzerland on Tuesday, but will now back-up again for another 100-metre hurdles burst at the Anniversary Games meet in London on Sunday July 20.
Nine days later, the reigning Olympic and Commonwealth gold medalist will attempt to defend her crown in Glasgow.
Pearson has been out of sorts since slowly working her way back from the injury she suffered at the start of the European summer.
However, Pearson says she's confident winning the hurdles in Glasgow is still "a very realistic goal".
Pearson struggled with a time of 13.19 in her first outing after damaging her hamstring in Belgium two and a half weeks ago.
She improved on that at the Diamond League meet in Paris in early July but still faded to sixth in a time of 12.89.
At another Diamond League event at the weekend in Glasgow, Pearson continued to shave her times by coming third in 12.87 - but admitted she wished the Commonwealth Games were a month away rather than two weeks.
Pearson clearly feels underdone and has reacted by booking in another race - albeit a low-key affair in London - meaning she'll arrive late to Australia's team camp in Gateshead, England.
"This will provide me with another race that can help in my race practice before Glasgow," she wrote on her blog.
"I have been doing a lot of specific hurdling work to get back into shape with the main aim of winning the Commonwealth Games, which I think is a very realistic goal.
"The rehab process is obviously very slow going, your head wants to do it and is trying to tell you to do it but your body is saying, 'slow down we can't push it if you want to race the rest of the season'.
"I have worked very hard to get back to where I am in a short space of time."
Pearson revealed there were "a lot of tears" after she ran the 13.19 in Belgium, but that it allowed her to get it out of her system before the bigger Diamond League events.
The 27-year-old was disappointed she didn't run faster at Glasgow but is remaining positive that her preparation remains on track.
Pearson says she'll wait until the last minute to decide whether she'll also contest the 100 metres flat at the Commonwealth Games.
