Brothers work toward their dream one panel at a time
On the Eastern shore of Maryland, brothers Josh and Mat Shockley are hard at work with vigilantes, vampire hunters and multi-dimensional travelers. The brothers aren't in charge of a secret government lair; they're the owners and principal artists of PLB Comics.
They've been working on their business a few years, but comics have been their life since they could read.
"We started reading them around age four, and that's how we got into them," recalled older brother Josh. "From there, we really got into drawing. I remember both of us sitting at my mom's kitchen table, just drawing. By the time I was seven or eight, we were drawing our own little comics."
With maturity came a love for the darker side of comics and graphic novels. Both fell in love with the work of Frank Miller. Known for hardboiled noir-style writing, Miller changed the way the brothers viewed their art with his edgy graphic novels and Daredevil series.
The Shockleys decided to turn their art into a business in 2006, when they released their first PLB issue. Currently the Shockleys are working on four series: Gideon and Sebastian, Danger Squad, Portal 317 and The Fall.
Now, the brothers are looking to expand.
"We've started bringing in different artists on sort of a freelance basis," says Josh.
Their hope is to quit their day jobs soon and write comics full-time. Currently, the shop is a side job for Josh, who works for the University of Maryland-Eastern Shore and Mat, who teaches art at Washington High School.
"I try to be realistic about taking this full-time, but we'd really like to be able to branch out, bring in some more people, get in more stores with a wider circulation in the next 10 years," Josh says. "By then, we want to be able to turn out books a lot faster."
One way to get their brand out there is to meet with their fans and seek new ones. The Shockleys promote their business by attending conventions, and holding meet and greets and other events in and around Salisbury and in Annapolis' Capital Comics.
On July 23, they'll host a free informative event at the Centre branch of the Wicomico County Library in Salisbury, where they'll outline the process of comic book creation for both kids and adults, including crafting storylines, laying out pages, drawing, inking and lettering.
"We didn't have anything like that as far as informative stuff goes," Josh says of his own comic background. "So we thought it would be something nice to do. If it's a little bit of information to pass on, that's great."
Pick up an issue of PLB's series at www.PLBComics.com.
The Creating Comics Event at the Centre at Salisbury will actually be on July 23rd. However we have a bunch of these events coming up, a few right near Annapolis at the Queen Anne's County Free Library. A full schedule of Creating Comics Events can be found at http://www.creatingcomicsevents.com
Great article by the way. Also a fantastic job on the article about FCBD at Capital (Billy is the man!), Third Eye and Twilight Zone. Thank you for contributing to giving the comics industry the good name it deserves!

The Daytona 500 is the most prestigious NASCAR race, and ranks with the Indianapolis 500 in US auto racing folklore. The race celebrates its 60th Anniversary in 2018 in a newly refurbished venue, thanks in large part to the efforts of Derek Muldowney MRICS.
Derek – President of Design & Development at International Speedway Corp (ISC) – led a major project named "Dayton Rising" to reimagine and redevelop the Daytona International Speedway between 2013 and 2015.
The $400 million project increased the venue's capacity to approximately 101,500 and provided wider and more comfortable seats. The number of restrooms doubled and there are now three times as many concession stands. In addition, it now features over 60 luxury suites with track side views and a revamped hospitality experience for corporate guests.
"On a daily basis I have to apply my analytical thinking and communication skills in order to motivate and effectively lead the different teams undertaking the design and planning of the project." - Derek Muldowney MRICS
The Daytona rising project was implemented against a backdrop of falling attendances for racing events following the 2008 recession and declining television ratings. However, the owners of ISC announced increases in both revenue and operating income in 2016, the first financial year since the completion of the project, partly driven by the success of the redevelopment at Daytona.
This carefully planned work helped to revitalise the American institution, providing it with the built environment that it needed to grow and flourish.
Derek completed a degree in quantity surveying at Trinity College Dublin and qualified as a chartered Quantity Surveyor in 1990. He drew on the broad range of transferable skills he'd gained throughout his career as he led the Daytona Rising project.

Emmanuel College students presented digital stories to Comer Elementary School in Madison County in late April as part of a service learning project at Emmanuel to help children enjoy learning academic standards through video storybooks called digital stories.
This was a collaboration between Mrs. Amy Hancock's education course called EM310 Reading and Writing in the Content Areas and Mrs. Paula Dixon's communication course called CM316 Multimedia Communication.
"Service learning is a great strategy to use with students of all ages," says Dr. Vicki Hollinshead, Dean of the School of Education at Emmanuel. "It empowers students by showing them how they can make a positive difference by meeting a real need in their community while at the same time being actively engaged in the learning process."
The seven stories were written and created by 7 education students and 14 communication students, and Comer's media specialist, Patricia Carey, arranged the presentation. Those visiting at Comer were (from left, back row) Mrs. Amy Hancock (education faculty), Holly Roberts, Desiree Wilson, Will Ward, James Malcolm, Jana Mobley and Mrs. Paula Dixon (communication faculty).

Anderson aware of swirling trade speculation
OAKLAND -- As often as the A's collect pitchers, they typically trade them away at an equally fervent pace.
When dealing Trevor Cahill, they landed Jarrod Parker. Years before that, they parted with Mark Mulder and got Dan Haren, who eventually left Oakland in a trade that included Brett Anderson. Now whom will the A's get for Anderson?
OAKLAND -- As often as the A's collect pitchers, they typically trade them away at an equally fervent pace.
When dealing Trevor Cahill, they landed Jarrod Parker. Years before that, they parted with Mark Mulder and got Dan Haren, who eventually left Oakland in a trade that included Brett Anderson. Now whom will the A's get for Anderson?
A trade involving the southpaw seems inevitable at this point. There's no such thing as too much pitching, but Oakland's surplus of arms has the club in prime position to potentially do some restocking of their farm system, should the right deal come along.
The A's recently signed Scott Kazmir to a two-year, $22 million deal to join a rotation that includes youngsters Parker, Sonny Gray, A.J. Griffin, Dan Straily and Tommy Milone, all of whom are under club control for several more years. That's already six pitchers. Then there's Anderson.
Despite his health concerns, the A's exercised the lefty's $8 million option, believing he can potentially exceed that value in 2014, whether with them or another team. That makes the lefty an attractive buy-low candidate for the many clubs not willing to give in to the rising prices attached to free-agent pitchers.
So it's no surprise Anderson already has been linked to the Blue Jays, Mariners, Indians and Yankees, among others.
"Every time I'm on Twitter, I think I've been linked to every team -- the Dallas Cowboys, to your dad's adult softball team," joked Anderson, speaking by phone on Thursday evening near his offseason home in Houston. "It's kind of been every team from top to bottom, but it's something you can't really dwell on, because if you focus on that, you're going to spend your time worrying about something you have no control over.
"I guess it's good to be wanted, and apparently I'm wanted by quite a few teams. You definitely see the business side of things. It seems like I've been linked to trade rumors the last couple of years, so you don't get used to it but realize it's part of baseball and understand that if it happens, it happens, and if it doesn't, it doesn't."
At 25 years old, Anderson may still have his best seasons ahead of him. At least that's what he hopes. Tommy John surgery kept him off the mound for most of 2011 and '12, and foot and ankle issues spoiled a 2013 campaign that began with him as the Opening Day starter. He ended it in the bullpen, reaching only 44 2/3 innings this year. Since 2011, he's thrown just 163.
Anderson's last injury-free season was in 2009, when he broke into the big leagues with an 11-11 record and 4.06 ERA as a rookie through 30 starts. In 19 starts the next year, he went 7-6 with a 2.80 ERA, and over his five seasons in the Majors, he's compiled a 3.81 ERA and 1.28 WHIP, averaging 7.1 strikeouts to 2.4 walks per nine innings.
The talent's there. Is it enough to convince teams to not only take a chance on his health but, in doing so, give away some good prospects?
"I think I'm a good pitcher when I'm healthy, but it's been a while since I've had that long haul," Anderson said. "I'm looking forward to that. I want that. I want to pitch, I want to play, I'm tired of getting hurt. It sounds good in theory, but it's about going out and doing it. I'm putting the work in, and I'm trying to be as proactive as possible and exercise all options to prevent any injuries."
Anderson is working out full time with personal trainer Lee Fiocchi, who also trains Kazmir and former A's outfielder Chris Young in the Houston area during the offseason. And that's about as much as he can control.
"I'd like to be more healthy and see what I can do on the field when I'm healthy," he said. "Obviously the A's showed faith in me and gave me that contract for a reason, but I want to prove to them that they gave me that money for a purpose. But also, at this point, I want to do it for myself, because I like baseball and I like pitching and I like going out there and trying to win ballgames and being competitive, rather than sitting on the sidelines and doing rehab stuff.
"I've enjoyed my time in Oakland, but if it doesn't work out that way, where I'm there next year or whenever, I'll be going out there and giving 100 percent for whoever that may be. Right now I'm an Oakland A, and I want to help that team get over the hump next year."

WHEN THE ZOMBIES COME (the title is actually in caps) is a short documentary that's being shown at this year's Sundance. And, well, on the internet right now.
It's about the staff of a rural hardware store — all massive Walking Dead fans — who bored and with with a large amount of dangerous things at their disposal set about perfecting their zombie apocalypse survival plans. Which include rules like this:
"No kids and no bitches, because it's all about survival".
I don't know whether to applaud their preparedness or slowly back away towards the exit, so ruthless and particular are they with their plans. I might do both (though I swear there are parts where the "star" cracks and starts to grin a little).

This question already has an answer here:
- Any way to list similar commands? 3 answers
I know about the "clear" command but I accidentally typed "cls" instead. I then received a message that said.
No command 'cls' found, but there are 18 similar ones
so what is the significance of telling me there are 18 similar commands and is there a way to see the commands that terminal mentioned?

Surviving your thesis
Many PhD students view thesis writing with trepidation but, as James Hayton explains, this rite of passage need not be a nightmare – it just takes the right tactics.
In the summer of 2006 my PhD in experimental physics hit rock bottom. After almost three years of research at the University of Nottingham, I had very little in the way of results, zero publications, and was spending most of my time in a darkened lab beating my head against an optics table. There was a real chance I would not finish at all. It did not seem to matter how often I stayed in the lab until 3.00 a.m. – things just were not coming together. It was an utterly depressing time.
The change came one day when I was so frustrated by constant failure that I just had to get away from the lab, away from the department; just escape, immediately. Nottingham has a fantastic campus, so I walked down to the lake, found an empty bench and sat in the sunshine until I felt like going back. This became a habit that saved my PhD, because it helped me realize that working harder just doing more of the same would only make things worse.
Previously, my default when things went wrong had been either to force myself to carry on, or get depressed and find justification to spend time on the Internet instead of doing something constructive. I would find myself just trying to get through to the end of the day, rather than focusing on what needed to be done. But afterwards, if my head was not in the right state to work effectively, I would take a walk around the campus until I was ready to do what I needed to do. Once I took the pressure off myself to appear as if I was working, or to spend hours and hours in the lab, my productivity rocketed. It seemed that small changes in habit could produce massive changes in outcome.
I entered the fourth year with a new attitude and an outlook built on my new habit of stepping away from the situation when stressed. My supervisor, Philip Moriarty, and I managed to get enough results together for a paper, and suddenly things did not look so bad. Crucially, he also set a date after which I would be banned from the lab, no matter what. Anything not finished by that date would not get done.
It is amazing how that focused my effort. With a list of 10 experiments to do, you never quite know which to do first. When you have to eliminate eight of them because there is not enough time, you can actually focus on those that will move your research forward.
500 words at a time
When the time came for me to write up my results, I realized that I needed to apply similar habits to my thesis. If I wanted to do more than just "get through", then I would have to approach it in a different way to most people. I wanted to finish fast, and keep my social life at the same time. Just sitting and typing would not cut it. How could I make it inevitable that I would succeed?
First, I abandoned the idea of filling the 9 to 5 day chained to the computer, and focused instead on specific targets. If I wrote a minimum of 500 words per day then I could stop; pressure off. I could finish the day satisfied with my progress as long as I had done my 500 words. As it happened, I smashed that target almost every day, while friends with better results were struggling to finish a paragraph per day.
So how do you get those 500 words? Physics and writing both rely on creativity and imagination, and both need your brain to be on top form. I never used to think about how to get my brain working (beyond caffeine) before going to the lab or sitting down at the computer and checking e-mail. Waiting to be in the right frame of mind did not work, and usually relied on guilt to get me going, so it made sense to actively create the right frame of mind on demand before trying to work.
Just being at the computer was counter-productive if I was not making progress, so I set a new rule: if I was not focused, I had to get away from the computer. If I knew what to work on, I would do a physical warm-up for five minutes to get fired up before sitting down at the desk. If I needed time to think, I would find somewhere to relax and think things over on my own, then come back when ready.
As a result of these strategies, I went from down and out in 2006 to writing a thesis a year later that my examiner described as one of the best he had ever read. After doing postdoctoral research at CEA Grenoble and the Universidad Aut˜noma de Barcelona, I now teach other people how to write theses. In all of these things my success has stemmed from those few counterintuitive principles I learned back in 2006: being willing to step away from the work when my head is not in the right state; limiting the time available; and eliminating tasks to focus on the few that matter the most.
Top 10 tips for a trouble-free thesis
- Never just sit down and try to type. It's common to hear advice in the vein of "just get words down", but it doesn't work that way. Get your brain and content in order first.
- Use pen and paper before pixels. Get the disordered ideas out of your brain and onto physical paper first, then try to put them in order before you start typing. It'll save you huge amounts of time.
- Don't turn on the computer until you know what you're going to work on, otherwise you'll end up stuck in a default loop of e-mail and Internet until guilt catches up with you.
- Get your mind into the right state to work before you sit down at the desk. I decide what to work on, then do a five minute physical warm-up to get the blood flowing before I type. A walk around the block can work too.
- Give yourself time away from the computer to think. Archimedes had his bathtub, Newton had his apple tree and Feynman had his wobbling plate. Your brain can do great things when you relax.
- Not all content is of equal value. Spend more time and effort on the best results and references. Making the thesis longer with sub-standard work only reduces the overall quality. Less is more!
- See your progress: I use a 4 × 10 grid on a sheet of A4 above my desk. Each block in the grid equals 500 words, which I filled in as I went. Small habit, huge difference in morale and productivity.
- Work in 25 minute bursts of high energy and focus, with five minute breaks in-between. Use a timer, work on one thing and stop when the timer goes off. Take a longer break after four rounds.
- Get into the habit of finishing sections, rather than leaving them for later. This means setting small tasks that you can complete quickly.
- You won't follow all of the advice all of the time. That's fine, but if it's not going right, take a step back, look at your habits and start again.

Oh. My. God.
HTC's Evo, the first 4G cellphone, has to be the greatest cellphone ever, and likely will be until the Verizon iPhone 4G hits the market in, maybe, two years. It is leaps — Superman leaps — ahead of anything on the market, and will be for a while.
First, it runs on Sprint's WiMax 4G network, available to 30 million people in 27 markets right now, and 44 markets and 120 million potential 4G surfers by the end of the year. 4G powers all sorts of nasty never-seen-before functions on the Evo, for instance:
- It's a mobile hotspot. Read that again: It's a cellphone and a mobile hotspot. The Evo, which runs Android 2.1, can power 4G connections with peak download speeds of more than 10 Mbps, peak upload speeds of 1 Mbps, and average download speeds of 3-6 Mbps — all two or three times faster than 3G — for up to eight other devices, including other phones. At the demo, Sprint execs pointedly mentioned the benefit for poor 3G-crippled iPhone users when an Evo user was near. Look for this mobile hotspot feature to be widely imitated when other 4G phones hit the market.
- It's got a front-facing 1.3MP camera/camcorder, presumably for face-to-face video chats with other Evo users, and for use with certain multiplayer video games. Developers just got the SDK, so video chat and video game apps haven't been written yet — but the camera is handy for self-portraits and composing video messages.
- Wireless stream HD video from the phone to an HDTV, and download streaming HQ videos from YouTube.
Evo doesn't stop here. Keep reading for the full 4G skinny.
It's got a beautiful 4.3-inch WVGA LCD. It runs on a 1GHz processor. It has an 8MP
GB camera with dual flash and a 720p HD video recorder. It's got Google Goggle, Google's picture search function: snap a photo, say the Eiffel Tower, into the app, and you'll get an Eiffel Tower results list as fast as if you typed in "Eiffel Tower." It's got a Flash-enabled browser that has tap-and-hold copy/paste capabilities. It's got 16GB of built-in internal memory.
Evo also incorporates a number of cool convenience functions and features. For instance, like an increasing number of phones, Evo aggregates all your non-verbal communications into a "Friend Stream." Instead of continually scrolling left-and-right through the seven home screens, double-tapping the Home key gives you all seven home screens mniaturized on a single page. If you swipe through them, the screens are numbered instead of merely being represented by dots. And it's got a kickstand so you can watch video without holding the phone.
Swipe scrolling is iPhone smooth. We couldn't check out how speedy the Web was, though — even for Sprint, local Las Vegas 4G service was clogged, which isn't a good sign. While no specific battery-life ratings were released, Sprint says it'll last a whole day of heavy usage, an assertion we'll be happy to test when we get a sample before the Evo appears sometime this summer.

FRANKLIN, IND. – Sparked by an occurrence that hadn't happened for Manchester University since the 2004-05 campaign, the Spartans claimed a hard-fought Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference road win 67-65 over Franklin College Thursday, Jan. 9.
Junior forward Jon Thompson (Rushville, Ind.) had a night to remember for the Black and Gold (2-10 overall, 1-4 HCAC). He went 13-of-22 from the field, including hitting a three-point bucket, en route to a 30-point effort. It was the first such for an MU player since Eric Berger did so against UW-Eau Claire early in the 2004-05 campaign.
"He's working his way back," head coach Brad Nadborne said. "He's doing that behind two fantastic games where he's scored a combined 53 points … taking names and passing out business cards. Jon is a very special offensive player. He put us in position to win tonight."
Thompson's single-game career high evening was part of a frenetic finish inside FC's Spurlock Center. The Spartans scored seven of the game's first eight points and built as large as a 10-point first half lead as part of a 33-27 halftime advantage. Franklin (6-6 overall, 3-2 HCAC) battled back and overtook their guests in the final 10 minutes of regulation, leading by as much four (53-49) with 7:42 left.
However, Manchester University answered the bell. They went on an 8-0 run at that point and didn't trail down the home stretch. The host Grizzlies did have two chances in the final six seconds to tie but both shots were off the mark.
"We played with a ton of poise … really gutsy," Nadborne said. "(Franklin) came back on us in the second half and took the lead, but we bounced back. We were resilient all night, as it seemed like every time they made a move at us, we managed to answer.
"That final sequence was pretty hectic," he added. "One of their players drove in and missed a lay-up, and they got the rebound and had another look around the elbow that was just off. We survived it, as we were pretty tired at that point."
Freshman guard Blake Brouwer (Elkhart, Ind.) chipped in 12 points. Junior guard Grant Newlin (Muncie, Ind.) turned in a strong effort on the boards with six rebounds and also picked away four steals.
MU continues HCAC action Saturday, Jan. 11, with a 3 p.m. tipoff at Transylvania University.
NOTES: The win ended a six-game skid for the Spartans … Manchester University has won six of the last nine against Franklin.

Say you're a high-profile media company and you've got a hit show on your hands that delves into the shadowy world of horse racing. You know what might be in your best interest? Keeping the horses alive. First off, because they're the stars of your show. (What, you were going to say Nick Nolte?) But most importantly, it's because people get really pissed off when you let animals die for no discernible reason.
And yet, a third horse has now died during production of HBO's meh-rated show Luck, which is winding down its first season. (It's already been renewed for a second.) The first two horses died during racing scenes, but this latest fatality sounds like the result of a freak occurrence.
"The horse was on her way back to the stall when she reared, flipped over backwards, and struck her head on the ground," [California Horse Racing Board veterinarian Gary] Beck said in a statement. An attending veterinarian determined that euthanasia was appropriate, he said.
PETA, as you might suspect, is none too pleased with this recent development.
But don't expect HBO or executive producers David Milch and Michael Mann to come clean about who the horse was and what condition he was in. They refused to tell us anything about the first two horses, so with the help of caring whistleblowers, we unearthed the disturbing evidence ourselves: One horse was drugged, and the other was arthritic and hadn't raced in years. Neither one should have been anywhere near a racetrack.

I believe the average spend will go up £5 ahead and thats being very conservative. So thats £185k. Then you have a new 25k who will spend £10 a head thats £250k. This is without the massively enhanced hospitality areas.

Senior center Katie Rollins hit a 3-pointer with 6:34 left in the first half to push the Lady Bisons ahead 30-16.
It would be the last Lady Bisons field goal of the half, but not the last points. Valerie Bronson hit a pair of free throws with one second left before intermission for a 32-23 Lady Bisons lead.

The Lady Bisons would retain the lead until Latoyia Jackson hit a 3-pointer to give Mercer a 50-49 lead. The Lady Bisons would keep it close until the final seconds when Mercer opened the final advantage on a series of free throws.
Rollins finished in double figures for the second game in a row, scoring a team-high 13 points. She also pulled down a a season-high and game-high nine rebounds. Bowers added 11 points, her fifth straight double figures game.
For the third time this season the Lady Bisons were perfect at the free throw line, hitting 10-of-10. They are the only team in the A-Sun to be perfect in free throws in a game.
Mercer placed four players in double figures. Jackson scored a game-high 22. Natasha Dom chipped in with 17. Courtney Ford added 11. Cristin Seymour chipped in with 10 points and a team high eight rebounds.

Harvard went 1-3 in two days at the Winthrop Invitational (Photo: Mike Slade).
ROCK HILL, S.C. – In its final day at the Winthrop Adidas Invitational the Harvard softball fell in a pair of games, 9-1 to Western Illinois and 5-4 to host Winthrop, Sunday. The Crimson moves to 3-6 on the season.
The Leathernecks jumped out to a quick 2-0 lead after just one half inning, as a two-out, two-run homerun put the Crimson at a two-run deficit. Katherine Lantz responded in the bottom of the inning with a leadoff single, and the Crimson put two runners on when Andrea Del Conte reached on an error. Kasey Lange stepped up and drove a single through the right side, scoring Lantz to cut the Western Illinois lead to 2-1. Emily Gusse advanced the runners to second and third with a sacrifice bunt, but the pair was stranded to keep the score at 2-1.
Western Illinois added to its lead in the top of the third on a bases-loaded walk, and then smacked a trio of RBI singles in the top of the fifth to break the game open. A two-run blast in the top of the seventh capped the scoring in the game in the 9-1final. Lantz and Lange had the hits in the game for Harvard while Gabrielle Ruiz absorbed the loss in the circle.
It was the Eagles that struck first in the second game of the day, as the hosts brought in a pair of runs on an error by the Crimson in the bottom of the first frame. The Harvard second saw two of the first three batters reach with Stephaie Regan and Jess Ferri poking back-to-back singles in the frame. Adrienne Hume reached first on a fielder's choice and the Crimson picked up its first run when pinch-runner Zoe Galindo came home on a double steal. Katherine Appelbe followed with a single to right center, bringing in Hume and knotting the score at 2-2.
A barrage of hits in the bottom of the third saw the hosts regain its two-run edge. Three straight singles to lead off the inning resulted in the go-ahead run for the Eagles and a wild pitch two batters later pushed the Winthrop lead to 4-2 through three full innings. Harvard had an immediate response, however, and re-tied the game in the next half inning. Galino led off with a single and the Crimson went on to load the bases on an Appelbe walk and Del Conte bunt single. Shelbi Olson put a ball in play in the next at-bat, which resulted in two runs coming in thanks to some shaky fielding from the hosts.
The game stayed tied through the middle of the seventh, but the Eagles would be the ones to come up with the big hit as a one-out solo homerun served as the walk-off in a 5-4 Winthrop victory. Appelbe and Del Conte led the Crimson with a pair of hits each in the game while Morgan Groom took the loss despite allowing just two hits and one earned run in 3.2 innings of work.
Next up, Harvard will take its annual spring break trip when it heads to San Diego, Calif., for the San Diego Classic II, which begins on Friday, March 15. The Crimson opens the classic against Colorado State at 5 p.m. (EST).

Power supplies are made in many shapes and sizes, with most simply offering a fixed DC output that can be of varying quality and accuracy. There are many instances where specific levels and features are required and such circumstances usually involve the use of a laboratory power supply. Although they are useful in schools and laboratories, they have many other applications, including research, testing and quality control work. Highly accurate, fixed voltage power supplies are available, normally consisting of a step-down transformer and switching regulator, but for general purpose use, an adjustable supply offers greater flexibility. When an accurately controlled AC supply is required, the best choice is an adjustable isolating transformer. These are safety transformers with galvanic separation of input and output circuits. Voltage levels are normally displayed by a voltage panel meter. In many cases, the testing of equipment is made much easier by the use of a dummy load, or DC electronic load, which mimics the actual loads present in the completed final installation - such loads are available in varying degrees of complexity, many being suitable for use in high-volume manufacturing situations.

Mayor Bloomberg wants stores throughout New York City to hide cigarettes behind counters, curtains or cabinets as part of his next anti-smoking effort.
"Such displays suggest that smoking is a normal activity, and they invite young people to experiment with tobacco," Bloomberg told reporters Monday.
Stores could still post cigarette ads and prices, the mayor said.
The law would apply to retail stores and requires City Council approval; it will be introduced on Wednesday. A spokeswoman for Council Speaker Christine Quinn said the measure would get a legislative review but added that she supports the goal of the bills.
At least one tobacco maker opposes the legislation.
"We believe it goes too far," David Sutton, a spokesman for Altria, which owns Marlboro-maker Philip Morris, told NBC 4 New York.
Bloomberg, a billionaire former smoker, has made anti-tobacco efforts a major part of his mayoralty and private philanthropy.
Bloomberg banned smoking in bars and restaurants during his first term, a move that was not common at the time. He has also committed $600 million to programs that seek to curb smoking around the world.
City officials said display restrictions are already in place in other countries, including Canada, England, Iceland and Ireland.

The final piece to the 2010 WWE Pay Per View puzzle is here, and TLC: Tables, Ladders and Chairs has an array of matches aimed to thrill and amaze us. In the end, with one world title change and the conclusion (?) of the all-important John Cena versus Nexus storyline, it didn't disappoint.

I am in denial that the holiday weekend is over. Honestly, I spent most of yesterday stressing over the fact that today was Monday and that would mean heading back to work. Boo. BOO! I am ready to win the lottery and give up this whole having to work for a living thing.
I thoroughly enjoyed having a short week last week. I left work early on Wednesday. I had big plans for the time off, as trivial as those plans may have been for my downtime, it was still my time.
Thursday morning, hubby and I went out for a short run. I love it when he runs with me and I think he like the spending time with me part, but he does not enjoy running like I do. I can understand that. Every one is different. After our run, we went to hot yoga class. Since it was a holiday, the yoga studio was offering a free class to a guest when you paid for yours. Perfect! They just had one class and I never expected it to be packed, but it was. So much sweat. It was awesome.
I was pretty proud of our activity that morning and I had no guilt whatsoever when we went to my brother and sister-in-laws for a 4th of July cookout. Chips, salsa, hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken pasta salad, and beer. It was a fun afternoon, despite the little bit of rain we had. My other brother and his family came over so we got to see our cutie-pie nephews.
Hubby headed home after we ate, so Blue and Ozzie would not be alone during the thunderstorms AND fireworks (hubby is such a good dad!) and we headed to Crystal Beach in hopes of the weather clearing in time for a sunset and possible fireworks. Neither happened, but it was important that I was there for the 4th, in memory of my dad. My mom and I haven't missed a 4th yet. We did have some fun time with Autumn before the rain really kicked in, so that was nice.
On Friday after my morning run, I "worked from home". And by "work from home", I mean I made 3 calls in the morning and one of our stops during the day was work-related. The rest was our time since hubby had the day off as well. This rarely happens where we both take time off. Workaholics don't even begin to describe us. We bought new tires for my car (a highly irritating purchase but it worked out well), a trip to Parkesdale Market one of our favorite produce markets owned by my friend Xi and her family for fresh produce and delicious milkshakes, and then spent the afternoon at home. (Read Xi's blog here.)
Saturday, I had my WW meeting and then ran afterwards. Hubby played paintball, and I did some cleaning and laundry. I even went to Starbucks for about an hour and enjoyed a beverage and finished the book I was reading, Safe Haven by Nicholas Sparks. I picked up my niece afterwards for a sleepover so her mom and dad could have a night out to celebrate their 10th anniversary. When we were driving to our house, she told me she wanted to spend every Saturday night at our house and that she was going to talk to Mommy and Daddy about that. I love that she feels so comfortable at our house. She walks in like she owns the place, calls the guest room "her room", and is a big helper with Blue and Ozzie and anything else I am doing. Needless to say, we had a great time as usual. Hubby and I took her to the the mall, ate dinner, played on the playground, and had ice cream. Our night ended at home watching The Princess Bride, her choice of movie to bring with her, and playing War. Seriously, she is one cool kid.
Sunday morning we played Go Fish and went to the park. Autumn says I need to get a bike so I can ride with her when she comes over. She's probably right, but I had fun walking and running to keep up with her too. It was great exercise. After a trip to Petco for puppy treats for Blue and Ozzie and her dog Scarlett, we took her home. Good times!
A quick trip to the grocery store and then we were home the rest of the day for some laziness. I love to be lazy.
I'm already looking forward to our next long weekend, Labor Day.
How was your holiday weekend? How did you spend your time?

What is Swing Bed?
Swing Bed (or Skilled Nursing Care) is a Medicare program designed to provide additional inpatient care to those needing extra time to heal or strengthen before returning home. The term swing bed came from the idea that the patient will "swing", or transition, from inpatient acute care through the program to return home to the same level of independence prior to entering the hospital. Swing Bed allows physicians to swing the level of care from "acute" to "skilled rehabilitation."
When is Swing Bed appropriate?
Often the swing bed is used for patients who have had surgery such as hip or other joint replacement. Individuals who have had these types of procedures can be transferred to Patients' Choice Swing Bed. In addition to major surgery, a lengthy illness can also result in the need for swing bed care. A patient can transfer from a larger facility to swing bed or, if already an inpatient at Culbertson, your hospital designation can be changed to receive swing bed care.
Who qualifies for Swing Bed?
- Patients must have at least a three-day stay as an acute patient within the last 30 days before transferring or transitioning to the Swing Bed program.
- Patients must need on-going monitoring and require rehabilitative therapy.
- There are no age restrictions.
- Swing Bed is routinely considered for patients who have had hip or knee surgery and need additional therapy before returning home.
Financial Information
Swing Bed Care may be paid for with private funds, private insurance and/or Medicare. The patient's physician and the hospital staff can help the patient determine if they qualify, under federal guidelines, for Medicare coverage. A patient's private insurance company will determine if it will cover Swing Bed Care. If a patient is not eligible for Medicare or private insurance coverage, they have to pay for their care through private funds.
Level of Care
The patient's needs will be monitored throughout their stay to determine whether or not they meet the Medicare Program's criteria or guidelines. If the level of care the patient needs decreases, they will be notified that they are no longer eligible for Medicare coverage. At that time, they would receive a Medicare letter of denial stating the reason they were no longer eligible for coverage. The patient would then become responsible for their bill.
Nursing Care
The intensity of care a patient receives in the Swing Bed Program is different from the care they would receive as an Acute Care patient. The nursing staff will continue to assist the patient with their needs, but as a part of the patient's rehabilitation, they will be encouraged to increase their level of independence by doing what they can for themselves. The patient's vital signs, such as pulse, respiration, weight and blood pressure, will be monitored as dictated by their physician but the patient will still have a call light by their bedside.
Swing Bed Therapy Services
Culbertson Memorial Hospital's Swing Bed unit's top priority is to assist patients in recovering their independence and mobility through intensive therapeutic sessions. Our skilled physical therapists evaluate each patient's capacity and develop a program to meet achievable goals. Therapists work with each patient employing techniques to lead to recovering pain-free movement or to teach patients how to handle equipment that allows them to return to some level of self-sufficiency. Treatment may include therapeutic exercises, endurance training, training in activities of daily living, massage, joint mobilization, applications of heat and cold or wound care. Occupational and Speech therapy is provided to swing bed patients if they are needed. All therapies have short and long term goals for their patients to achieve while in the program.
Activity Program
A special activity program can be designed for patients according to their needs and interest. Activities may be ordered by the patient's physician or are available at the patient's request. Personal care items such as nail care and nail polish are also available.
Meals are served in the same manner as Acute Care hospital inpatients. The Culbertson Memorial Hospital Dietary Department will work with the patient and their doctor to provide the foods they need and enjoy.
When you have surgery at another facility and need rehabilitation or skilled care, have the hospitals Discharge Planner contact Culbertson Memorial Hospital for our Swing Bed Program. Please have the Discharge Planner contact: Culbertson Memorial Hospital Patient Care Coordinator Melinda Murk at 217-322-4321.

I'm studying Weil pairing and its applications in cryptography. I already know that it can be defined like this:
$$w(P, Q) = (-1)^n\frac{f_P(Q)}{f_Q(P)}\frac{f_Q}{f_P}(\mathcal{O})$$
$\textrm{div}(f_P) = n(P) - n(\mathcal{O})$ and $\textrm{div}(f_Q) = n(Q) - n(\mathcal{O})$.
This is not suitable for computation, so we shift the numerator by $R$ and the denominator by $S$ and we obtain:
$$w(P, Q) = (-1)^n\frac{g_P(Q+S)}{g_Q(P+R)}\frac{g_Q(R)}{g_P(S)}$$
$\textrm{div}(g_P) = n(P+R) - n(\mathcal{R})$ and $\textrm{div}(g_Q) = n(Q+S) - n(\mathcal{S})$.
Enter Miller's algorithm. In order to calculate $g_P(A)$ we define $h_k$ for $k = 0,\ldots,n$ as:
$$\textrm{div}(h_k) = k(P+R) - k(R) - (kP) + \mathcal{O}$$
Now, $h_n = g_P$ and we can calculate $h_{k+l}(A)$ from $h_k(A)$ and $h_l(A)$. So we construct a "double-and-add" algorithm similar to fast exponentiation.
Although $g_P(A)$ is never zero or infinity (for $A = Q+S$ or $A = S$), it can happen that during the execution of "double-and-add" algorithm we can encounter some $h_k(A)$ equal to zero or infinity. The solution is to randomly select new $Q$ and $S$ and start over.
How do I prove that there exist such $Q$ and $S$ that I will be able to calculate the Weil pairing of $P$ and $Q$?
If possible, I'd like to see some simple argument that does not refer to algebraic geometry, as I don't know anything about it - I come from cryptography.

Actually, not that major - but I got things done that needed to be done before I could continue assembling it.
I installed a couple of protectors for the ball drain, which hopefully will keep this area looking neat for a while.
I also restructured the "design" of the rail so that the balls are locked physically at the end of the rail instead of relying on a stopper to prevent the ball from escaping into the shooter lane. Now all I need is something that pushes the ball up and over the edge.
I've also installed the somewhat-final posts that will make the captive ball stay captive. I might cut and reshape the metal guides in case they don't flow well enough in-game. At the moment they don't align 100% which causes the ball to bounce slightly instead of having a Newton-effect.
I installed the final post arrangement for the Little Sister-vent plastic part. I'm still not perfectly happy with the plastic part, but it will have to do for now.
I did the holes needed in the background-piece so that I could properly test the upper playfield. It allowed me to decide where to put the screws, bolts and cutaways.
Next came The Dreaded area of The Dreaded!
The problem with designing a board without having the proper pieces is painfully obvious in this picture. I made the board too long so I had to pull the plunger everytime I needed to lift the playfield, and the plunger and autolauncher fork did not align.
But with a little luck and care, this...
...became this.
The autolauncher is now assembled and functioning. The plunger will require a couple of spacers before it aligns up perfectly with the autolauncher fork, but that can easily be fixed with a shorter plunger later on. This can be seen to the right where the plunger protrudes beyond the fork causing the ball to be off-center.

Newey admits blown diffuser ban hurting Red Bull
- Drivers:
- Adrian Newey
- Teams:
- Red Bull
Adrian Newey admits that the banning of the exhaust blown diffuser is hurting Red Bull's competitiveness this season.
Having pioneered the concept throughout the 2010 and 2011 seasons, the FIA outlawed diffuser blowing for this year. With Sebastian Vettel having secured a dominant world championship victory last season, neither Red Bull driver currently tops the standings as its advantage has all but disappeared, and Newey told Autosport that the regulation change had affected Red Bull more than the other teams.
"It's pretty much as we feared before the season started," Newey said. "Having explored exhaust blowing technology quite heavily for two seasons and then having that taken away together with other changes like the front wing flexibility [test rules], hurt us quite a lot. Probably more than other people because we had been exploiting it for longer. It has taken a while to try to understand what we need to do and to recover."
It appears that Red Bull will spend some of the time before the Belgian Grand Prix working on how to make the car perform under the new engine regulations, with Newey revealing it was yet to make changes following the engine-mapping clampdown.
"We've been working with Renault and were suddenly faced with a clarification that was a different interpretation to what we thought we were operating to. That's where we are and we've got to go back and have a fresh look."

July 12th is a day that many gamers and hardware enthusiasts looked forward to, it's the day that Intel announced officially that they had the world's fastest x86 processor. Looking over the review of the Core 2 Duo I'm sure many of you decided then and there it was time to take the plunge to the new Intel architecture. So here we are just over a month a later and Core 2 Duo's are starting to fill the retail channel so I'm sure many of you are wondering what kind of motherboards are out there and what kind of features do they have?
Today we are bringing you a look at a rather unique board from ASRock, the 775Dual-VSTA. This board takes convention and throws it out the window by supporting AGP and PCI-E! Not content with it's support of "older" technologies, it can also operate using either DDR or DDRII!! This is excellent news for those hanging on to their Athlon XP or Pentium 4c systems looking to upgrade to some serious CPU horsepower. The best part of this is that the board can be readily found at your favorite e-tailers for the bargain basement price of $56. You may be thinking at this price that you'd be better off sticking with what you've got, but don't let the price fool you, this little board packs some serious punch. Of course to meet this price point some sacrifices were made but the important thing is that ASRock has given the mainstream user everything needed to have a stellar performing system.
Before we get into the specs of the board let's take a look at ASRock as many of you may not be familiar with them.
ASRock Inc., was established in 2002 and is an energetic company with the combination of technology and humanity. They devote their efforts to bring customers innovative and reliable motherboards with the design concept of 3C, "Creative, Considerate, Cost-effective", ASRock has successfully established a well-known leading brand of the best price-performance motherboard in the industry.
That's one heck of a goal, so let's see if ASRock can deliver on that promise with the 775Dual-VSTA.

Though Cakespy Headquarters is based in Seattle, we're originally from a magical place known as New Jersey; as such, at this time of year, we really start to miss friends and family back East. And while certainly a holiday card is a sweet gesture, this year, if we may put modesty aside for a moment, we had an idea that is really pure genius: the Tele-Graham Cracker. These sweet little treats in the mail give a shout-out to a lost art of communication and offer sweet (or not so sweet) greetings for the holiday season.
What do you need to make them? We made ours into little sandwiches, using Honey Maid Cinnamon Graham Crackers and cream cheese frosting; for the outside messages, we used gel frosting (and we're gonna be honest here, we bought the little gel writers).
How do you make them? Oh please, it's easy. Split a graham cracker in half; frost one side and adhere the top layer to form a little sandwich. Using your gel writer, write in the message of your choice.
May we make suggestions? We tried to personalize them for various friends in various places and states; for a friend who has promised to pay a visit but hasn't in four years, a "Visit Soon" Tele-Graham was in order;
for Rakka, who has been experiencing some aches and pains, a slightly mangled "Feel Better" Tele-Graham complete with injured Teddy Graham seemed appropriate;
for the friend who disappeared after we loaned him 50 bucks, we made an extra-special treat (kidding);
For Mr. Cakespy, our own live-in Chia Pet, "URAQT" seemed to fit the bill;
and as general greetings for family and friends go, you can't miss with "Miss You" or "Love You" .
How to Pack them Up? We packed ours up using waxed paper, with an outer layer of tissue paper to buffer the edges and protect the little Tele-Grahams. We then packed them in perfectly-sized kraft jewelry boxes purchased from U-Line, taped the edges and simply addressed and sent. Will they arrive OK? Only time will tell, but certainly the sweet sentiment will be appreciated.
