Precision Graduations the Foundation for High Accuracy
The heart of a HEIDENHAIN encoder is its measuring standard, usually in the form of a grating with typical line widths of 0.25 µm to 10 µm. These precision graduations are manufactured in a process invented by HEIDENHAIN (e.g. DIADUR or AURODUR) and are a decisive factor in the function and accuracy of encoders. The graduations consist of lines and gaps at defi ned intervals with very little deviation, forming structures with very high edge definition. These graduations are resistant to mechanical and chemical infl uences as well as to vibration and shock. They have a defi ned thermal behavior.
|Phase gratings
|Special manufacturing processes make it possible to produce three-dimensional graduation structures, possessing special optical characteristics. The structure widths are in the range of a few microns down to quarters of a micron.
|Graduations manufactured with the SUPRADUR process act optically like three-dimensional phase gratings, but they have a planar structure and are therefore particularly insensitive to contamination.
|Thin magnetically active layers in the micron range are structured for very fine, magnetized graduations.
|DIADUR precision graduations are composed of an extremely thin layer of chromium on a substrate usually of glass or glass ceramic. The accuracy of the graduation structure lies within the micron and submicron range.
|AURODUR graduations consists of highly refl ective gold lines and matte etched gaps. AURODUR graduations are usually on steel carriers.
|With its special optical composition of refl ective gold layers, METALLUR graduations show a virtually planar structure. They are therefore particularly tolerant to contamination.

That's from an article in today's New York Times about the governor of New Jersey. Christie, and his success at coming across as a blunt, honest guy when in fact he misrepresents, midsriects and outright lies on most of the topics he's been addressing since he took office.
And this (an entire post on Paul Krugman's blog):
"The Last Refuge
Or, for some people, the first. Newt Gingrich explains why he dumped wife #1 while she was in the hospital after cancer surgery, and wife #2 soon after she was diagnosed with MS. It was because of his love of country:
How did people like this end up running America?"There's no question at times of my life, partially driven by how passionately I felt about this country, that I worked far too hard and things happened in my life that were not appropriate.
Good question.

Over the weekend caught wind that CrazyPC.com has announced a going out of business sale. CrazyPC has been online since 1999 and anyone that called themselves a PC enthusiast knows that this is one of the main players in the case modding, cooling and accessories business. We've bought stuff from the company for over a decade and they've even supported Legit Reviews by sending over some product samples for review. We don't know why exactly the company is closing, but we all know that the desktop PC marketing is shrinking right now. Factor in competition from companies like Newegg, FrozenCPU, Performance PC's and you have a pretty crowded market where a couple of the bigger sites get better volume discounts and in turn offer better pricing. It's sad to see the original owners behind sites like CrazyPC, Xoxide and ClubIT shutting down or getting out of the business. If you are looking for a deal on some hardware be sure to head on over to the www.CrazyPC.com site as they are slashing prices in a special 'closing the doors' sale.
Since 1999 CrazyPC has served computer builders of all kinds, from computer hobbyists to companies. During that time we like to think that we played a small part in building the Case Modding and PC Cooling Markets. But as it's said "All good things must come to an end" we will be closing our doors. We'd like to thank all of our customers over the years. It's been a pleasure doing business with you. We're going to stay open while we sell off our remaining inventory. During this time we will continue to offer excellent customer service as always. All items are marked down and prices have been cut across the board!

Humane Society Pets of the Week!
Pets are like little members of the family, and I'm the type to spoil my cats. Spoil them, pet them, love them, baby talk them, give them a treat, baby talk them some more… Really I'm just a blubbering mess when it comes to my cats. I luuuurve them.
Unfortunately there are a lot of pets out there who don't have the luxury of having a loving home and they're sent to the Humane Society. They're taken great care of, but these pets would much rather be in a home environment. This is where you come into play!
Each week I'm going to bring you a new cat and dog of the week. If you'd like to see them in person or get more information on these pets or any other pets that the Humane Society has, check them out online here or call 940-855-4941. They're located at 4360 Old Iowa Park Road in Wichita Falls.
Because I'm a cat person, I'll start out with Van Gogh. He is a 2-year-old tuxedo cat who's very friendly and does well with other cats. He's neutered, has his shots, and is microchipped. Because he's a tuxedo cat, he would go well with any household decor, and would love to come home with you.
Regina is an adorable Chihuahua who is looking for a new home. She's small, white, and a little bashful at first. She warms up quickly and loves attention. She's a very sweet pet, has all of her shots, is spayed, heartworm tested, and microchipped. Because she's small, she doesn't take up much room, though she'll probably capture your heart once you meet her.

The Walkem was built by Jock Walkem in Launceston about 1954-55 with Manx Norton engine and later re-engined with Vincent twin but this photo at Penguin Hillclimb circa 1956 puzzles me a bit because it appears to show neither.
Further scrutiny of a high res original shows that this is a Norton Manx engine, as run in this car from its first appearance in 1954 until sometime late in 1956. The car usually ran with its attractive tail cowling, for which a rear mounting hoop can be seen. We now know that the car first appeared in public in November 1954.

Before the January elections, two television journalists from ORT (Russia's public television channel) were seized at gunpoint and held for a month. The secrecy shrouding the bargaining between Russian and Chechen officials over their release sparked rumors that the capture was part of an elaborate effort by Chechen rebel factions or Russian intelligence agents to scuttle the elections. ORT, which had also suffered the shooting death of a bureau chief in August 1996, withdrew all its personnel from the region. Most other news organizations followed suit.
In February, Italian photographer Mauro Galligani, on assignment for the Italian weekly Panorama, was pushed into a car by unidentified gunmen. Regional observers claimed that the willingness of an Italian humanitarian organization to make a settlement to release its workers in September 1996 provided the incentive for Galligani's abduction. Chechen officials said they were unable to trace the abductors, despite communications demanding a $1 million ransom. On April 14, RIA-Novosti, the official Russian government news service, reported that Galligani was back in Rome and characterized his return "as a complete surprise to the ... Chechen Interior Ministry." A Chechen official said the Italian Embassy might have dealt directly with the kidnappers. But Chechen national security chief Abu Mousayev maintained his men had tracked the kidnappers and aided the release of the Italian journalist.
The March 4 seizure of four Russian media employees--two correspondents from the official Russian news agency ITAR-TASS, one Radio Rossiya reporter, and a satellite technician--unleashed vigorous condemnation from the Russian government, which had previously preferred to use silent diplomacy. Perhaps because it was the largest group of journalists taken since the war began, all from state-sponsored media outlets, or perhaps because the Chechen kidnapping followed a similar Russian hostage drama in Tajikistan that began Feb. 4, what Izvestia deemed as "titanic efforts by central, regional, and local officials" have been sustained at a high level for many weeks. By May, however, relatives complained that Interior Ministry officials told them they had "exhausted all their resources" on the search.
The capture of the four government media employees prompted the official Russian Union of Journalists to call for an "information blockade" of Chechnya until their colleagues were released. Chechen officials responded on March 6 with an order for all journalists to leave the republic immediately, "in the interests of safety and for the promotion of the [peace] negotiations," according to the Associated Press. Several days later, the Chechens relented, but set the new procedures for reporters.
At first, the news blackout--intended mainly as a consciousness-raising device--dissipated in a few weeks. All the news media as well as government analysts rely heavily on ITAR-TASS and RIA-Novosti wire dispatches, at times the only news available from Chechnya.
Russian journalists asked CPJ to join them in supporting a news boycott, but in an open letter to Russian President Boris Yeltsin on March 5, the committee explained that as an organization devoted to press freedom, it could not endorse such a proposal, even in the name of a higher good such as the freedom and safety of journalists. CPJ noted that the clandestine bargaining for journalists, as well as impunity for their captors, had created a climate that encouraged would-be kidnappers. The union's response was a terse challenge: "If New York thinks otherwise, let them send their own correspondents to Chechnya."
Russian Interior Minister Anatoly Kulikov resurrected the boycott idea on April 9: "As long as people will pay money for the hostages in Chechnya, they will go on being abducted. ... We're not seeing enough desire on the part of the [Chechen] interior minister to help us look for journalists. I would recommend declaring an information blockade against Chechnya--then they'll think twice." On April 10, the Russian Journalists' Union, the Glasnost Defense Foundation, and the union's Committee to Defend Free Speech and Journalists' Rights again entreated editors, publishers, and radio and television executives: "Don't send your employees to Chechnya if you have the slightest feeling of responsibility for them."
Frustrated at the lack of progress in finding their colleagues, Russian press groups called on journalists to contribute to the $2 million ransom if the Russian government would not pay it, "no matter how shameful it looks to give in to [the kidnappers'] demands and no matter what dangerous precedent it sets." Families of the abducted reporters have received phone calls demanding the ransom payment.
Generally, journalists agree that the recent rash of kidnappings are motivated by greed rather than politics. "They take journalists because they are valuable and visible," one foreign correspondent in Moscow told CPJ. An independent Russian journalist who now refrains from travel to Chechnya believes the prevalence of state news employees among the missing is more a matter of probability than ideology. "Reporters who have to run around looking for a new story every day, meeting lots of different people, are more at risk."
Before the anarchy that followed the August 1996 rebel offensive and the subsequent uneasy cease-fire, journalists were required to get press credentials through the Chechen Interior Ministry and Press Center and usually obtained passes from the Russian military as well to navigate through the numerous checkpoints. But intrepid reporters easily evaded those protocols. Both Russian and foreign correspondents say their past experience argues against complying with the new rules, and there is ample evidence that journalists are ignoring them, judging by the frequency of complaints from Chechen officials that Russian reporters are refusing their guards. Frustrated at their inability to control Russian news coverage, Chechen officials have also denounced Russian journalists as intelligence agents.
If they stick to their own network of trusted contacts, journalists argue, staying in private homes--even engaging their own armed driver/escorts--they feel safer than those who stay in the government's hotels and hire unfamiliar drivers. But two who avoided the government's minders, reporter Olga Bagautdinova and photojournalist Alexander Utrobin from Chelyabinsk Region newspapers, seized in March, fared no better. (Utrobin escaped his captors and contacted authorities, who stormed a rebel apartment to free Bagautdinova.)
Gravely concerned about the mounting total of missing journalists and reports that at least two of the hostages are ill, CPJ repeatedly has called on the Russian and Chechen governments as well as on international bodies such as the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) to take public, forceful action to free abducted journalists and to ensure safe working conditions for the media. So far, five of the journalists tracked by CPJ have been freed, including newspaper correspondent Natalya Vasenina, who escaped after a harrowing five-month captivity in a damp pit.
The new rules have created a dilemma for the international press freedom community. While the ostensible purpose of government drivers and minders is to keep journalists out of harm's way, there are several serious drawbacks to these measures. They restrict genuine reporting; Chechen rebel factions opposed to the current Chechen government could equate acceptance of government bodyguards with pro-government sympathies, leaving all journalists vulnerable to attack (a number of those killed in 1996 were perceived as sympathizers of the previous, Moscow-backed Chechen government); the Chechen government could cut off even the current heavily restricted access; and journalists who agree to the rules may engage in self-censorship to keep their access.
In the wars in the former Yugoslavia, the International Peace Implementation Force (IFOR, now known as the Stabilization Force) used a press-pass system to trace and help reporters without necessarily restricting their news coverage. But such a relatively unbiased international force is not available in the Chechen conflict, which is supposed to be an internal dispute in the Russian Federation, and supposedly is over. Moreover, the traditional peacekeepers in the region--Russian troops--would be unacceptable to the Chechens. That leaves the OSCE, the unwieldy 53-member body that at times has been urged to leave Chechnya by some elements of the Chechen leadership despite its important role in the peace process. If the OSCE can manage to remain, perhaps the establishment of a Media Experts Commission, such as the OCSE office currently operating in Sarajevo, would be helpful in protecting journalists. Reporters have told CPJ they would be happy to have an OSCE press pass and would welcome intervention from OSCE if they encountered trouble.
Chechen officials have decreed that kidnapping is a capital crime, punishable by public execution. But the moves have had no visible deterrence value, as journalists continue to be seized. In April, the Chechen government reiterated that all search efforts had to go through a special investigation office, ostensibly to maintain leverage and to curb a thriving underground business in greedy middlemen eager to find abductees for the right price.

Just a short and slow four-miler after I was done with work. Partly cloudy, warm, but not too humid out, so it was pretty nice to run in.
Continue to feel pretty good about the 50-miler on Sunday, even if it's been a bit difficult to gauge exactly where I'm at. Focus between now and then will be on nutrition and getting ample amounts of sleep at night. A Bruins win tonight will make the sleep that much easier (knock on wood).
Ran 4.0 miles @ 7:59/mile pace.
Paved roads, paved paths, small section of trail.
Slightly hilly.
Mid 70s, partly cloudy.
Saucony Kinvara, shorts, short sleeved shirt.

I've been trying to find Pat's original ZX-1 Power Add-on thread, and just can't seem to find it. I hope nobody minds I'm following Grommet's lead and starting an owners thread.
I've contacted Spinergy a few times since early August about receiving new gas springs and have not heard anything back. Right now, the ZX-1 is almost unusable because the ones sent are for a much heavier user.
Does anyone know what is going on and who is best to contact at Spinergy?

Howard Law?
March 25, 2013, 09:52:50 AM »
Any opinions on Howard Law? Got in with a 20k scholarship and can't seem to find a whole lot of info on it, except that some graduates secure fairly respectable employment which strikes me as odd.
Re: Howard Law?

March 27, 2013, 09:35:14 PM »
First thing to realize is that anyone on this board myself included is nothing more than an anonymous internet poster that knows nothing about you, your situation, or what is best for you. Furthermore, there is no qualification to type on this board for all you know I am the Dean of Harvard Law School or some crackhead in a public library so please take all advice you receive on this board or others with a major grain of salt. Michael Scott does a good job of explaining why this is a good idea a little humor for you
. Remember the law school you choose to attend will be a life altering decision.
On top of that I would like to add employment stats can be manipulated greatly just look Howard's LSAC Stats 90% of their grads are employed this is reported by Howard Law School who wants to make themselves look good
. Conversely Lawschooltransparency whose goal is to make employment looks bad shows 40%
So which is 90% or 40%? I don't know I can tell in trials I have seen two "experts" ask the same question and come up with two completely different numbers. I can tell you if you attend Howard and finish in the bottom 25% of the class it will be a lot harder than if you finish in the top 25% of the class. There is 25% chance you will be in the bottom and a 25% chance you will be in the top, but there is no way to know until you enroll.
On top of the stats I have gone to law school and work as an attorney now and I think any OL should consider the following factors in this order when choosing what school to attend (1) Location (2) Cost (3) Personal Feelings about school (4) The reality of legal education (5) Consider U.S. News Rankings last not first. I will analyze these factors below.
1) Location
Simple question do you want to live in D.C.? That is where you will be living or in Virginia and commutting, but that will be your home for three years is that something you want? Remember law school does not exist in a vacuum and you will deal with all the good and all the bad D.C. has to offer if your from a small town in Arkansas this will be a culture shock to you if your born and raised in D.C. then it could be a great fit this is a question only you can answer.
2) Cost
A 20k scholarship is great, but what are the CONDITIONS many schools will require you to have a 3.0 or be in the top 25% after 1L. Every OL thinks a 3.0 will be a cakewalk since it was for everyone who is offered a scholarship at an ABA school, but law school is much different based on the curve as well as the caliber of students you are competing with. The reality is usually only 35% of 1L's can have a 3.0 at the end of 1L, but on the first day of class 100% of students are certain they are special and will be in the top 10% and certainly the top 35%, but you don't need to be a math major to figure out that more than half of the people come away disappionted. This is no knock on you, but there is a 90% chance you won't be in the top 10% and a 65% chance you won't be in the top 35%. Depending on what the conditions are you will lose that 20K for years two and three.
This NY times article does a better job explaining the whole situation than I can.
3) Personal Feelings About the School
It is important to feel out the culture of the school and make sure it fits your style as you will be dealing with it for 3 years. What you like is highly personal when I was a OL I visited multiple schools and during law school competed in mock trial competitions. There were some schools I loved others I hated for example I loved Notre Dame that is my personality Catholic, Football, and more importantly a big emphasis on tradition. Realistically I would classify myself as a jock, but a hipster would HATE Notre Dame or someone that was really into Art or one of a million other things people are into Notre Dame may not be a fit.
You should also speak to professors, students, admins, etc and see if you like them. I have had a few attorney jobs and worked with lawyers at all of them, but the culture of some firms and government agencies was a lot different than others. Law school is no different they are all law schools, but the culture will be a big impact on your experience.
4. Reality of Legal Education
I will let you in on a little secret at every ABA school the education is the same. Your first year will consist of Torts, Civil Procedure, Contracts, Property, Criminal Law, and Con Law. Then in year 2 and 3 you will take Criminal Procedure, Evidence, Wills & Trusts, Corporations, Remedies, and some writing courses such as Legal Writing & Research or Appellate Advocacy.
The reality is in Torts you will learn Proximate cause in the Palsgraff Case Justice Cardozo in 1930 didn't write a seperate opinion for all the different law schools there is one opinion and here is the citation for it 248 N.Y. 339 and no matter what school you attend you will probably use an online resource such as ecasebriefs where they will break down the case for you
you go students from every ABA law school Harvard to Cooley use this site to breakdown the cases they read. Or in Civil Procedure you will learn about Notice in Pennoyer v. Neff 95 U.S. 714 again the U.S. Supreme Court in the 1800's wasn't concerned about U.S. News rankings and making sure law students were satisfied and again you would use a site like this one
So there really is no "BETTER" education on top of that after three years of law school you will take Barbri or Kaplan to assist you in passing the bar and join students from every law school in some lecture hall. On the first day of Barbri you might see some sweatshirts from different schools, but those slowly go away as you study for the bar and freak the f*** out praying you can pass along with everyone else around you.
5) U.S News Ranking
When I was a OL I though this was the gospel and should be the basis of any decision I made, but now I realize this is nothing more than an a for profit, unregulated magazine offering an opinion. This should not be something you base a life altering decision on you can use it as a factor, but it is literally a magazine nothing more.
To illustrate this point realize U.S. News ranks more than law schools for example New Mexico is the best place to live according to U.S. News
South Dakota is one of the best places to retire in 2032
One of the factors in making this decision is access to dental visits. Really read the formula U.S. News used to make this determination and you can realize how little research goes into their rankings.
I imagine U.S. News saying New Mexico is the best place to live is not going to inspire you to pack your bags and move there or even apply to New Mexico Law School. Furthermore, I think you would question anyone who opened a retirement account in South Dakota based on this magazine alone. Are their legitimate points made by U.S. News sure, but where you attend law school will impact the rest of your life what some magazine thinks should play a very minor role in your decision and not be the basis of it.
Whether to attend law school and where you attend it will literally change your life you can find all the statistics you want and internet posters telling you Howard is horrible or great, but the reality is it is your life use your common sense when making this life altering decision as you will be the one living with it. Congrats on getting into law school and the scholarship I wish you the best of luck as you pursue a legal career.

Lol sorry i dont have any info on Howord law i just wanted to tell living legend that he is an extremely annoying poster. EVERYONE on here knows that they are receiving information from random strangers PLEASE STOP starting every post with that same stupid paragraph. People come here for reassurance or a little help I'm sure they don't make decisions based soley on what people say on here, and if they do then they are idiots and deserve whatever happens.

And what would be the result of a contest between Jess Phillips and Jeremy Corbyn?JimBentley wrote:Now that Jeremy Corbyn has been re-elected Labour Party leader with an even bigger mandate than last year (despite 150,000+ of his supporters being barred from voting), I wonder whether certain members of the Parliamentary Labour Party - particularly those that refused to serve in the shadow cabinet - will get behind him rather than trying to undermine him (with the enthusiastic help of virtually every media outlet) at every turn? I'd like to think that they will, but on past form, they're probably plotting another leadership challenge as I type this.
If so, I wonder who'll they will try next? It's not going to be any of the high-profile naysayers - people such as Yvette Cooper, Angela Eagle, Chuka Umunna, Liz Kendall, Hilary Benn, Stephen Kinnock, Tom Watson et al - who still harbour political ambitions, as they surely know that they would be beaten badly and that would harm their reputations irreparably. It'll have to be someone with name recognition, but expendable to the PLP, so my bet's going on Jess Phillips. As to when, probably early next year; they can't do it immediately, it would be too transparent.
The anti-Corbyns were willing to risk the reputation of the party by making this challenge. I'm not actually sure what they thought would happen. Corbyn was always likely to win against Eagle/Smith/any other challenger, but Labour were always going to lose from this. Maybe they thought Corbyn would just stand down, or that they could force him off the ballot, but that was never going to go down well with the Labour membership, which would likely have knock-on effects for the party.
And so, what different would happen if Jess Phillips or anyone else made a challenge next year? The party would look even worse, and if Corbyn won again, the whole concept of Labour leadership contests would become a big joke to everyone. Early next year is way too early. If they want to get rid of him, they have to play the long game. It's not enough for them to be dissatisfied with him internally - he has to majorly fuck up in public. My understanding is that Gordon Brown was pretty unpopular as a leader within Labour, but they generally speaking shut up about it because they didn't want Labour to lose out with all the infighting.
But for some reason, they've considered it to be OK to just have a pop at Corbyn whenever they feel like. It's been really unprofessional from a whole host of Labour MPs, and they've really damaged the party. This is irrespective of what you might think of Corbyn as a leader - even if you think he's damaged the party himself, that's not a reason just to damage it further. It's completely insane what's happened with Labour since he's become leader.
After this second election, they just really now need to shut the fuck up for a while and get on with it.
Edit - Does it really count as a bigger mandate? He got 59% last time against three other people and there was no need for the second AV round to be triggered. He got 61.8% this time, which is more, but I'm pretty sure that his win last year would have been bigger in any of the head-to-heads.

Special Report: Part Two
By DONALD BORENSTEIN
Location: Detroit, Mich.
Project Type: Rainfall usage
Detroit is home to the largest single-site wastewater treatment plant in the United States. Due to aging infrastructure and excessive demand, it often faces the danger of overflow, a problem worsened by the threat of more frequent and intense storms brought about by climate change. The Sierra Club has explored green infrastructural options for surface-level water filtration, such as raincollection barrels and rainwater/greywater gardens. The Sierra Club's approach has placed an emphasis of community participation and organizing to encourage green infrastructure and gardening. The effort has led to the creation of five rain gardens to date, with at least two more on the way, and a community initiative for Detroit to incentivize rainwater collection for businesses and residents.
Location: Portland, Me.
Project type: Climate change and fishing
As lobster populations continually migrate north due to global warming, the market outlook for lobster fishers in Maine has suffered in spite of the increased abundance of these bottomfeeders. Due to lobster overabundance, the effects of climate change and a centuries-long pattern of overfishing, other marine-life populations have plummeted in population, and rising sea temperatures are posing an imminent threat to the lobster population in Maine. Despite the lack of action by state government, lobster fishers, marine biologists, and policy makers came together at the end of July for a symposium on the threat to lobsters posed by climate change and overfishing. The symposium attendees called for greater regulations on overfishing, including no-fish zones, and yield-management strategies for lobster hauls.
Location: Los Angeles, Calif.
Project type: Green infrastructure
After the success of greenways elsewhere, the city of Los Angeles has started work on a greenway next to the Los Angeles- Glendale water reclamation plant. Designed as a self-sustaining infrastructure, the greenway will use rainwater to both nourish the plants in the greenway and to funnel the water into the treatment center. The greenway will also be designed with an educational focus, including signage and displays to help show visitors how the greenway works, and how they can use rainwater in their own gardens.
Location: Yarnell Hill, Ariz.
Project type: Wildfire adaptation
Following the disastrous Yarnell Hill wildfire that earlier this summer killed 19 firefighters and affected more than 8,300 acres, researchers wonder whether directly combating wildfires made increasingly frequent and dangerous by climate change is the best approach. Researchers at the Pacific Biodiversity Institute found only a small percentage of homes in the Yarnell Hill region had an adequate buffer zone between their homes and flammable vegetation or other fire hazards. Researchers called for a focus on building adaptive, fireready communities in these vulnerable areas, using buffer zones and fire-resistant materials in construction. Wildfire-vulnerable communities are also starting to investigate community awareness programs and more efficient evacuation routes.
Location: Cape May, NJ
Project type: Restoration of natural coastal resources
On New Jersey's Atlantic shore, nonprofit group The Nature Conservancy is leading a coastal restoration effort that melds adaptation efforts with the long-term sustainability and progress goals of climate change mitigation. The focus is on the creation and restoration of naturally occurring coastal features, such as coral reefs on the shoreline, to buffer against tidal risks presented to shoreline communities. The group has placed particular emphasis on restoring forests, marshes and meadows near the shoreline, taking advantage of their capacity to buffer storm surge and retain water. One example is a restored meadow on the shore of Cape May, completed in 2006, that withstood both Hurricane Irene and Superstorm Sandy without any damage to the dunes or wetlands.

Have you all heard about Rally For Recess? Danimals is working hard to get our children active and healthy. I was so shocked that to hear that so many schools were eliminating recess time. As a teacher, I know how important recess is for students to not only get some exercise and fresh air, but also to socialize and make their own choices. I am very thankful that at our school they have kept daily recess as well as offering PE twice a week instead of one. Read below to learn some interesting facts.
Schools nationwide are cutting recess time due to limited resources, which can impede on your children's physical development. In the past twenty years, children have lost an average of 8 hours of recess a week and some schools no longer provide play time for students. According to the American Academy of Pediatricians, the lack of playtime is a national crisis leading to a growing epidemic; childhood obesity.
Government and public health agencies recommend children engage in at 60 minutes of mild to strenuous activity each day. iv To help rally moms and kids around this cause, Dannon® Danimals®, nutritious on-the-go dairy drinks and low-fat yogurts containing calcium for kids, is launching a national initiative called "Rally for Recess".
"Rally for Recess" is designed to create healthy competition, pitting school against school! Five schools have the opportunity to win new playground equipment and an all-day recess celebration. Danimals is committed to childhood health and wellness, which starts with good nutrition and an active lifestyle. Through February 8, 2012 purchasers can find codes on Danimals packaging to enter and register. The top five schools in each of the categories with the most codes registered wins!
Hopefully you are as excited about this amazing opportunity and will share this information with your child's school. And while you are at it, why not win your little one a branded soccer ball and branded drawstring bag to help them get even more exercise. Just click on the link to go to the giveaway post and then get your kids away from the TV and moving! :)
Disclosure: I received no compensation for this post, just helping to spread the word. The Prize is being provided by Danimals.

Last night, Simon put a hotfix live to address some of the outstanding issues with the food-prep stations.
I did another video of a play-through and still encountered some unexpected deaths.
My problem is that the save file doesn't recreate those deaths.
I had my suspicions that colonist Y. Jenkins was going to die. So I saved (Save2).
There were two food prep stations. One was empty. The other had 19k of prepared food. Mr Jenkins ignored the available food repeatedly and eventually died.
(in fact, all colonists were seemingly ignoring that available food during my initial play through).
btw, were they supposed to eat the chickens? Because there were plenty of those too.
But when I loaded the save this morning, other colonists and Mr Jenkins all were able to use that food station. Avoiding the immediate deaths.
... They still died anyway, because I didn't have enough food available yet to refill the food stations.
My best guess is that last night, other colonists were are flagged to use the food prep station - so the ones I cared about were bypassing it.
Or something with interaction points. Or something more subtle. Let's be honest, I've no clue.
Youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSBgcfU0yTg
Savegame files: https://www.dropbox.com/s/dc7rm5j6lmsxf ... a.zip?dl=0
I'll probably try for a quicker hydroponics room in my next play through. Maybe it was purely because I really didn't have enough food.

A Penan man watches a passing Shin Yang Timber truck loaded with logs, Malaysia. The Penan are one of the few remaining nomadic peoples of the rainforest. Their homeland in the Malaysian state of Sarawak is undergoing one of the highest rates of logging on earth. The Penan are also threatened by a massive dam project. The proposed Bakun dam will flood 70,000 hectares of land, displacing indigenous peoples and wildlife and destroying even more rain forest. Read more »

A drug used to battle heart disease and anxiety might help treat bigots too.
British researchers at Oxford University said volunteers given the beta blocker drug propranolol scored lower on a test designed to measure prejudice at a subconscious level than those in a group given a placebo.
The U.K. Daily Telegraph reported propranolol is used to treat chest pains, lower heart rates, anxiety and panic. But researchers found more than a third of drugged volunteers notched a "negative" score when tested for "implicit racial bias," an outcome that did not occur among those who were given the placebo.
U.S. & World
The test had asked volunteers to rate how "warm" they felt on a 10-point scale as pictures of black and white people flashed on a computer screen.
"The main finding of our study is that propranolol significantly reduced implicit but not explicit racial bias," the study's scientists wrote in the journal Psychopharmacology.
Oxford philosophy professor and study co-author Julian Savulescu said his research raised the "tantalizing possibility" that drugs could be used to change unconscious racial attitudes.
But propranolol could not cure racism outright, he said. He added that "biological research aiming to make people morally better has a dark history."
Outside expert Dr. Chris Chambers, from the University of Cardiff's School of Psychology, said the results should not be judged with anything other than "extreme caution," the Telegraph reported.
"We don't know whether the drug influenced racial attitudes only or whether it altered implicit brain systems more generally," he said. "And we can't rule out the possibility that the effects were due to the drug incidentally reducing heart rate."

Dodgers fans grabbing tickets at 'unprecedented' rate
Sales of full-season plans temporarily stopped after record renewals
LOS ANGELES -- Demand has been so strong that the Dodgers have temporarily halted season-ticket sales at 31,000 prior to the Friday launch of single-game ticket sales.
But vice president of ticket sales David Siegel said mini plans are still available and the club is evaluating whether supply will allow an additional limited number of season tickets to be sold.
"Demand from our fans has been unprecedented," said Siegel. "We have a renewal rate of 98 percent, which is unheard of in the history of the Dodgers.
"It goes to show the investment ownership has made, on and off the field, with the stadium improvements, with the promotional calendar and with the players, has gotten so much traction. And not just with Dodgers fans, but the entire city of Los Angeles. In my 18 years, I can't remember so much anticipation for the start of a season."
The Dodgers drew 3,743,527 in home attendance in 2013, an average of 46,216 and the largest by far in Major League Baseball. The total was the fourth-highest in club history.
Individual-game tickets will go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. PT, exclusively online. Tickets will be available Saturday at FanFest, which will be held in the Dodger Stadium parking lot.
The Dodgers will again use variable pricing and a tiered system depending on the popularity of the game, but Siegel said at least 20 percent of the home games will have tickets available for as low as $10 each.
"We still feel it's the best value in California and the best value in sports," he said.
The promotional calendar includes 12 bobblehead giveaways and the addition of an inflatable chair.
"Bobbleheads really resonate with our fan base like we've never seen before," Siegel said. "We're going to keep doing them."
Fan voting resulted in a Brian Wilson bobblehead, an A.J. Ellis bobblehead was added by popular demand, and there will be a Babe Ruth bobblehead depicting the slugger in a Dodgers uniform from the 1938 season, when he was Brooklyn's first-base coach.
This season also will mark the debut of a Yasiel Puig bobblehead.

4 keys I use to move around.
4 keys that could, potentially, be keybound.
4 keys I can bind using modifiers and tack on abilities I cast only when I am *not* moving.
If I'm moving around using WASD, I can't be using any spell with a cast-time, anyway. If I'm casting a spell that is cancelled by movement, I can't be moving anyway while I press the button to trigger it. So, cast-time spells can be bound to movement keys using modifiers to toggle them (ctrl, alt, shift).
Suddenly, my keyboard doesn't feel so cramped for space anymore.
Druid Spells that require you to stand still:
- Wrath
- Starfire
- Hurricane (though you can target it while moving)
- Cyclone
- Entangling Roots
- Soothe
- Healing Touch
- Nourish
- Regrowth
- Tranquility
- Revive
- Rebirth
- Warstomp (racial)
So how do you keybind your movement keys without loosing your movement? By having the actions be bound by the key + ctrl, alt, or shift. For the actual binding, I used Bindpad, though you could use an actionbar mod like Bartender and bind individual action buttons.
- Ctrl W
- Alt W
- Shift W
- Ctrl A
- Alt A
- Shift A
- Ctrl S
- Alt S
- Shift S
- Ctrl D
- Alt D
- Shift D
Note 1: I don't suggest putting HT on one of these as it's usually macroed to NS anyway, thus making it sometimes insta-cast :)
Note 2: If you unbound your strafe from q and e like I did, I do suggest keeping strafe left and strafe right bound somewhere in these keys, like as Shift A and Shift D, (Edit: or just as A and D) or even on mousebuttons. Strafe does come in handy from time to time.
Note 3: If you are a feral who uses ctrl/shift/alt macros for lots of abilities, like I do, and want to use them while moving, then I really *really* suggest making sure these movement-key binds are form-dependent. Otherwise you'll find yourself suddenly casting wrath in cow form when you should be tanking or clawing. /stopmacro [form:1/3] is your friend. So is [nostance].
Thank you, Naz :) Please don't incinerate me.

Boy, born 2004
HIV, hydrocephalus
Listed: January 30, 2013
Adam is a sweet, easy to please little cuddle bug. He is very much like a cuddly, curious little toddler. When I first met him he did not seem interested in me at all, but as time went by he began to want affection, and would grab my hands if I stopped rubbing his head and put them back on his head.
One day I picked him up and from that moment on he wanted to spend most of my time there in my arms. When I arrived he'd jump up from his little wooden chair, and hurry over to me with his arms raised. If I didn't pick him up fast enough he'd try to climb up into my arms using nearby chairs or beds, and he would not hesitate to grab items from my hands and set them down to free up my hands so I could hold him. He also began to cry whenever I left. He loves wind up toys and toys that vibrate, and would giggle happily and flap his hands to show how excited he was about them. His other favorite toys were a pony he enjoyed chewing on, any sort of car, and some legos that made a train. He is not verbal but was beginning to make noises to communicate. I tried to teach him to sign more one day, by signing hand over hand with him. When I asked him to sign it he took my hands and helped me sign it. He seems to me to have a need for love and affection that can only come from a loving family. I would love to see him thriving and meeting his full potential, as well as bringing joy to as many people as possible!

I have to admit when I first heard the amazing Sprinkles Cupcakery was going to install a 24 hour "ATM" sort of machine to dispense cupcakes I was a little impressed!! As you all know, Sprinkles has always been a leader of the cupcake industry and I always give them props for being a step ahead and really setting trends. They have incredible flavors and I have always looked up to them. They have always been such an inspiration to me personally and starting my own Cupcakery, Goodie Girls.
After thinking about this idea for a while, I am a little concerned as to this new idea coming into play. To me, a Cupcakery is supposed to be the freshest product. You are supposed to be able to come into your local Cupcakery and become a regular and get to know each other as a family. To walk into a Cupcakery is an experience in itself from the smell of the amazing baked goods being baked to the color scheme and design of the cute little shops. These make for such great family memories and traditions. Don't get me wrong, I definitely give props to Sprinkles making this move from a business decision standpoint. I bet there are PLENTY of people who are out and about and crazy that sweet little cupcake at midnight or the customer in the middle of the day that feels guilty grabbing a 2nd cupcake and so not to be seen they can rush on over to the "ATM" style cupcake dispenser to not be seen or judged. Haha…I definitely could imagine myself doing that!
But in reality, I down right feel our sense of community is being diluted with this "fast food" style eating and we don't get to sit and enjoy the conversation. We are all so rushed and looking for the fastest ways to get from point A to point B. My favorite memories are encounters with people who I would have never met just by standing in line, eating at a restaurant instead of fast take out, or talking with the sales associates behind the counters who in turn can offer some amazing suggestions of what is the new flavors to get. I probably wouldn't have tried half of the food I have gotten if it weren't for recommendations from the employees who work there.
I am really torn on whether I think it's a good decision or bad. From a business standpoint I think it's such a cool new trendy idea, its setting a new style, and it's definitely press worthy. From a personal standpoint, I don't think I would ever use it. I would rather go into the store, stand in line, experience it in a whole…
I am curious to know what are your thoughts? Do you think it's a good idea to install something like this?

I was expecting very little but I was very pleasantly surprised. I always thought low ABV beers would suck and have no personality but I think last night changed my mind.

This is a puzzle very similar to the classic Tangram Puzzle.Here we have 10 pieces that form the basic shape of a circle;whereas with the Tangram we have 7 pieces toform the basic shape of a square..This puzzle comes in a metal case with cards showing 7 shapes,silhouettes or puzzles to construct.Solutions are provided on the back of the cards.The pieces are magnetic .The only advantage is that they "stick" in place or when travelling.I suppose they can also be placed on a fridge door. This is certainly not a new puzzle.It was first sold in Germany and other European countries in 1891 and was called The Circle Puzzle" or in German "Kreistratsel". 7 is a small number of puzzles for this type of puzzle .If you want additional challenges or puzzles you will find many more in "The Anchor Puzzle Book" by Jerry slocum & Dieter Gebhardt.Thye manufacturer also make other similar puzzles;"Eggsasperation",basic shape of an egg,and X-cruciation,basic shape of a cross.

Mcommerce Summit 2013 New York May 2: Walmart, Walgreens, Bank of America, Lancôme, Design Within Reach, Priceline, Forrester
Please click here to register for the Mcommerce Summit: State of Mobile Commerce 2013 in New York on Thursday, May 2, 2013.
Registration is open for the third annual Mcommerce Summit: State of Mobile Commerce 2013 conference Thursday, May 2 featuring speakers from Walmart, Walgreens, Bank of America, Lancôme, Design Within Reach, Priceline and Forrester Research. This daylong New York event is a must-attend for retailers, brands, marketers, ad agencies, publishers and market researchers looking to devise and implement smart mobile commerce strategy and tactics tying in with other channels.
At this exclusive summit organized by this publication at the Time & Life Building in Midtown Manhattan across from Radio City Hall, attendees will get to listen and meet with key executives moving the needle for mobile commerce. The conference, whose agenda is below, will be limited to only 200 delegates.
"Mobile commerce's time has come," said Mickey Alam Khan, editor in chief of Mobile Commerce Daily and Mobile Marketer, New York. "Retailers, financial institutions and merchants have realized that to not have a multichannel mobile presence in a larger omnichannel experience is ignore the customer's wishes.
"If eBay can claim to close $40 billion in mobile commerce sales from its eBay and PayPal operations this year, that should give pause to other retailers who are waiting for their peers to test the waters and then dive in," he said. "Dive in late and that's the last swimmer to reach the other end of the pool – that's the new mobile reality."
Pooling resources
The Mcommerce Summit is designed to help retailers and marketers gauge the progress of their peers and competitors in mobile, helping shape strategy, tactics and execution in the multichannel context.
This year's agenda will cover how mobile is shaping Walmart's retail strategy, what Lancôme's customers expect of their mobile experience, Forrester Research's take on mobile commerce and how Bank of America is building personal connections via mobile.
Also included in the program are Design Within Reach's mobile tips for small to midsize businesses and retailers and how Walgreens is boosting customer engagement with mobile.
The event is priced at $595 for the day, which includes breakfast, lunch and cocktails.
For sponsorship, please contact Jodie Solomon at [email protected]
The Mcommerce Summit is part of this publication's exclusive summit series, which includes Mobile FirstLook and the Mobile Marketing Summit. The events are held in New York.

Walmart: How Mobile is Shaping the World's Largest Retailer
With sales last year of nearly $500 billion – or half-trillion dollars – Walmart Stores is perched unchallenged as the world's largest retailer, growing to that girth in only 50 years. Strict adherence to customer-friendly pricing and product stocking has won it the loyalty of hundreds of millions of customers who shop at its 10,000-plus stores across 27 countries. In addition to a sizeable ecommerce operation, Walmart now has rolled out all the stops for mobile marketing and mobile commerce. The mass merchandizer's mobile repertoire includes mobile store sites, applications, QR codes, promotions, mobile specials, loyalty plays and any tool that drives traffic to stores. The goal is to offer a seamless experience – one Walmart – as consumers shift their research and shopping to mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. However, the fight for mobile commerce share of market is fierce. Setting the stage, the keynote will discuss:
?Why mobile is key to Walmart's future growth strategy
?Who is the Walmart mobile shopper
?Resources needed to deliver an effective mobile customer experience
?How Walmart differentiates service for customers on smartphones versus tablets
?Why Walmart is so focused on the in-store mobile experience

The French cosmetics house's key demographic is the young, tech-savvy, social media-conscious consumer who has expectations that include convenience and mobility.

Forrester Research: Understanding the Mobile Commerce Opportunity
Mobile commerce, on its own, is a modest opportunity as currently envisioned. Mobile's true potential lies in its ability to completely alter the consumer approach to research and buying, upend existing ecosystems and business models, and influence purchases across all channels. That is the view of Forrester Research, one of the most forward-thinking market researchers in the space. So what does that mean for marketers and retailers where mobile is a catalyst for change, whether they like it or not? In this session, attendees will get a taste of what is to come in mobile commerce, including:
?The key trends in mobile commerce, including actionable data
?How mobile devices are changing consumer behavior
?How mobile will disrupt existing business models
?Mobile best practice for marketers and retailers
Julie Ask, vice president and principal analyst, Forrester Research

The company currently operates in a mobile-first mode, with every initiative informed – and sometimes even driven by – its experience in this emerging medium. Attendees will glean the key learnings and themes that priceline uncovered in the course of growing a mobile business, including:
? The emergence of the last-minute traveler
? Finding shelter when storms strike: a look at how the weather affects smartphone-toting travelers
? Frictionless payment: the good, the bad and the ugly, or an insider's view on how priceline evolved the mobile checkout process
? So what does mobile-first really mean?

Mastering the Mobile Experience: A New Approach to App Management and Optimization
Mobile applications are becoming a significant channel for engaging with customers and driving revenue. Although brands are responding to this trend, many have still not figured out how to get the most out of the investments they have made.

? Examples of delivering an engaging native mobile app experience

Bank of America mobile banking customers can check account balances, transfer funds, deposit checks, pay bills, email person to person, receive application alerts and find the closest ATM – all from its mobile site and applications across platforms, smartphones and tablets.

In this session recognizing the new always-on environment, attendees will learn from this mobile pioneer:
?How Bank of America takes a holistic approach as opposed to a single-channel strategy to drive further adoption and engagement in mobile
?Why building personal connections with and for its customers is key
?Trials, tests and services under evaluation to develop offerings for Bank of America customers to enrich the purchase experience
?The role of partnerships – and why Bank of America seeks them
?Why being right to market is better than first to market

Clearly, Walgreens wants to serve customers where they are, when they want to shop and whichever channel they choose. This session will focus on how Walgreens has driven millions of monthly repeat mobile customers by:
?Integrating the Walgreens Balance Rewards loyalty program to improve customer in-store and out-of-store experiences
?Using Walgreens' application and Apple's Passbook on the iPhone to drive limited-time in-store coupons

Hi Linda,
Sounds like the Sure deploy battery needs to be replaced.
Have someone check the voltage on the Sure deploy battery.
Hi Jim-
I have a question about my 2010 Odyssey with the VMI Northstar conversion. Today, as I was driving, the Sure Deploy system started beeping intermittently. It would stop for a while and then start up again. Do you know what may be causing this? (Of course the place I take it for service is closed for the weekend)
Thanks for any help!
heres a pic of the Veigel's in the Volvo
Hi Jim, knowing that the lever won't move is very useful info (not provided in the installation booklet of Veigel). I'd assume it's the same with menox.
Thanks and take care
The lever does not move when you push the pedals.
It should be able to be partially folded, it's just not going to go between the seats.
Any car you fit into and is going to work for you shouldn't be a loser.
If you and or or your dealer likes the menox over the veigle you should go with the menox.
Hi Jim, thanks much for the info. Don't think the Veigel could be folded in the car i just got (Kia Optima...yes, i know, sounds like a loser, but actually found it optimal for my needs). There is far less than 3" space between the seat and console. Then the Veigel would be no advantage over Menox. What happens anyway when AB drives the car with Veigel (not folded) or Menox. Does the lever moves backward/upward each time the gas or brake is pushed? No way to inactivate the system when not in use? Thanks again. Sorry i can't come from south jersey to MA to see your demo.
We haven't started the car yet.
In the Volvo, I don't think there is enough room between the seat and the center console for it to fold out of the way.
We can install it where ever needed as long as full brake and gas can be done.
The widest point of the push pull control is just over 3" so you would at least that much space between the seats and the center console. The push twist is 4.5"
In addition to stocking these we have a demo set up for people to try
Hi Jim, following up on your posts about the Veigel system you were to install on a Volvo. How did it go? Any pictures? My concern is about the seat possibly interfering with folding down the lever when not in use (when the car is driven by AB). Is it possible to install the system and have it working with the seat nearly moved up to the max? or is there a limitation with that?
