"Many years ago I saw a black & white Spencer Tracey Film Called "Captains courageous". Spencer's character played a bizarre mechanical fiddle called a Hurdy Gurdy. From that point this instrument fascinated me. Finding one to play was not very easy, so it was sometime before I was courageous enough to make one. I had never seen a hurdy gurdy in the flesh before. This made troubleshooting a long and sometimes painful process. My intension was to make a quick and dirty hurdy gurdy by converting an old guitar. In the end I put more work and detail into it and ended up with a very playable instrument that I named George. From then on I was hooked. .."

"I have been fascinated by the shape and sound of the violin since early childhood and even during my days at Art College in England where I studied Painting, Sculpture and Textile Design, I played the violin and had a desire to make them. I have also played the saxophone and flute since that time. Much later, after retraining in Graphic Design and years in Advertising and teaching Graphic Design at Monash University in Victoria (Chisholm Campus), a spell in a popular Rock band of the day, some work in music retailing and general gigging around Melbourne playing Violin and Saxophone and Flute, I eventually started to study, repair and make violins. That was in 1975 and has continued to this day. In 1991 I came to Western Australia and concentrated more on making than repairing. " See website for more information. (ed.)

" … I am particularly interested in the guitar of the early 19th century. The instruments described as "Romantic guitars" or "Biedermeier Gitarren" are of smaller shape. They comply with the acoustic aesthetics and musical demands of this period. …
Apart from conventional standard and reconditioning repairs I also carry out extensive restoration in my workshop. In most cases the aim of restauration is a playable instrument for musicians. Depending on condition and rarity of the instrument a pure conservative work may be more important. This decision must be made with the owner before restoration. I see conservative work as making each step of the restoration reversible. …"

"Hans Reiners
On these pages you can find information about many of the bows I make, both replicas of existing originals and bows designed after iconographic documents as well as my own inventions. They are as umcompromisingly like the originals—or contemporary pictures—as possible, because I am convinced that each period in musical history knew exactly the kind of instruments they wanted and how to make them. They are entirely hand-crafted using the same techniques and tools as makers of the period did, because every tool and every use of it leaves its mark on the finished product. Since it seems more likely to be good at what one likes, I have confined myself to pre-1800 bows.What you will not find are bows produced in series, anachronistic details, and materials such as finishing paper, modern bows disguised as early ones, and ivory. You can also find some information about how I came to do what I do, and why I am doing it the way I do. .."

"Henner Harders
Growing up surrounded by music and crafts, I was fascinated by working with wood and playing the viol from an early age.
In 1986 I went to England to study at the London College of Furniture, on the 'early fretted instruments' course. Since leaving college in 1990, I have run my own instrument building workshop, in both England and Germany. I was very lucky to have the opportunity to work in London with the viol maker Dietrich Kessler, where I handled, studied and played a variety of lovely old gambas.
Among my commissions has been a set of four renaissance viols for the English viol consort Fretwork, a set of viols for the Suomen Kulttuurirahasto in Helsinki, and a lira da gamba for Erin Headley. My instruments are closely based on those I have measured in museums and private collections in Europe.
I find that playing the viol myself helps considerably when setting up my instruments - particularly neck shape, action, bridge curve and height.
Susanne Küster
In 1989 I began my apprenticeship as a woodcarver in Flensburg at the Werkkunstschule. Besides carving in wood and working in clay, plaster, concrete and stone I gained a lot of experience in design and drawing. After leaving the school I went to Bremen, where I started carving heads for the viols of Henner Harders.
This is where the instrument-making bug infected me, so I went to the Newark School of Violin Making to learn the making and repairing of violins. When leaving this three-year course, I decided to go to London for two years and work with Adam Whone to get experience in the repairing and restoration of old violins. Now I make my own violins and carve heads for a variety of instruments.
Makers like Dietrich Kessler, Michael Heale, Jane Julier, Renate Fink, Helen Michetschläger, Wesley Brandt, Thomas Mace, Norman Myall, Robert Eyland.... have commissioned carved heads from me for their instruments.

"Handicraft has been my primary interest since childhood, continuing into my professional life. Beginning in 1984 in Bourges, my brother Pierre-Gilles Jarny (artistic director of the Aymerillot ensemble) and I took an interest in 15th and 16 century music. We performed together on occasion and I continued to work as a manager of a joinery and cabinetry workshop.
My 1991 meeting with Carolos Gonzales, a luthier specializing in lutes, was pivotal for my career. Beginning my training as an apprentice and then as a journeyman, I studied this trade in the tradition of Joël Dugot. Instructor to us all, Joël Dugot is the conservator of plucked string instruments at the Music Museum in Paris. Carlos Gonzales and i organized several luthier workshops, and from 1999 to 2003 I taught practical luthier workshops in Paris. During the same period, I made the acquaintance of one of the best lute musicians in France, Pascale Boquet. She helped me to refine and better understand the art of lute music, and since then we have continued this adventure together.
I opened my first workshop in 2000 in Meung-sur-Loir (Loiret) and then moved to Tours in 2003. For two years, I have had an apprentice in my studio, Nicolas Petit, who has studied the art of making these instruments and will open his own workshop in Tours.

The main purpose of a hat is to protect you from the sun, rain or cold. This means that there are different hats required for different seasons. For summer use, a ball cap works ok, but they usually do not shed water, nor do they protect the ears. If you have sensitive skin, keep this in mind. A wide brimmed had takes care of these issues, but the back tends to hit a large back pack.
Bill's ChoiceI have an old REI wide brimmed hat that I have used for years, and also have an "Ultimate Hat" that seems to work better with a backpack. While rather pricy, it is crushable, it floats, and is guaranteed for life.

Recently, we put out a call asking all of you to help us with a problem: finding a way to sync and share calendars, task lists, and other data between different users across different platforms, simply and cheaply. We provided three hypothetical scenarios we were seeking to solve:
- A married couple keeping track of kids' soccer practices, music lessons, and maintaining a family address book.
- A four-person traveling sales team working on the road, mostly from smartphones and tablets.
- A small office of a few dozen people who would like inter-office communication and project management to go smoothly.
You responded, and the answers you gave were both numerous and varied. We got suggestions for everything from command-line tools to home servers to dead-simple cloud products, and there were very few repeat answers among the 80 or so comments we received in the first 48 hours. We've evaluated your suggestions, and it's time to share the best of what the Ars hive-mind came up with.
Because we were looking for simple and painless solutions, any suggestion requiring command line or scripting knowledge were disqualified (as interesting as some of your implementations sounded, we felt that was too much to throw at an average user). Complexity and cost also disqualified any answer that hinged on setting up your own server. And lastly, because of our cross-platform stipulations, we threw out solutions that only worked (or only worked best) with products from a specific company—though it sounds like many of you in the Apple and Microsoft camps are having success with iCloud and Windows Live Mesh, respectively.
Removing those products left us with mostly cloud-based services. The responses to our article suggest that the majority of you are comfortable with these hosted solutions. Our job, then, was to sift through all of the competing services to find the tool (or tools) that best met the needs of our hypothetical use cases.
Google: Gets by with a little help from its friends
Google isn't quite the all-in-one solution we're looking for, but as several of you mentioned it's quite good at the things it does support. Google Calendars are easy to share between users, and Google Drive and Google Docs make sharing of files and documents relatively easy. Google Sites and Google Docs also serve as passable collaborative editing and sharing tools, filling the gap that a Wiki server otherwise might.
Google's products also scale well—our hypothetical married couple could easily share calendars and Google Drive contents between personal Gmail accounts, our small traveling sales team could do the same with a free ten-user Google Apps account, and our small office could upgrade to a full Google Apps account and get perks like Active Directory integration in the process. Users can create extra calendars for group activity (instructions for syncing multiple calendars to mobile devices can be found here, for the person who asked), and Google Apps users can create non-human service accounts for the same purpose.
There are a couple of things that Google can't quite manage, however (and these caveats also go for competing products like Office 365): the first is automated syncing of contacts between users. Google Apps users can automatically search their directory for users, but there isn't a way to add addresses from outside your domain for all users at once. The second is sync and sharing support for Tasks lists—native mobile sync isn't available even if you're using the Exchange-powered Google Sync, which can also be an issue if you use clients like Outlook or iCal on your desktop. And while Google noted back in January of 2011 that task sharing was one of the most requested features for its service, that capability still hasn't been added to the platform. Some of you noted that you were keeping track of tasks using Google Docs. But for smartphone users especially, we feel it's important that we identify some more automated and touch-friendly solutions.
Task sharing
Task syncing and sharing is going to require a third-party to do the heavy lifting, and we were given no shortage of suggestions. One is Remember the Milk (suggested by forum users Mastershogo and david.rendall), a standalone service that not only features stand-alone iOS, Android, and Blackberry apps, but also integrates with Gmail, Google Calendar, Twitter, and Outlook. It will also integrate with iOS's native Reminders app via CalDAV. Tasks can be sent and received from other Remember the Milk accounts in much the same way emails are, both to individuals added to contacts lists and to groups of contacts. Sharing a task will keep it in both owners' to-do lists, while sending a task will simply put it into the recipient's Inbox.
I prefer Remember the Milk for its integration into existing services, but if you're more into standalone apps then Wunderlist (the choice of forum users Step21, Dor Green, and kyleCS) is also a solid choice—apps are available not just for iOS, Android, BlackBerry, and Windows Phone, but Windows, OS X, and Linux. Tasks can be shared with Wunderlist users, and read-only lists of tasks can also be printed and emailed to users. While both Remember the Milk and Wunderlist are excellent services for tasks, the fact that each requires a separate user account to share with other users means they're best suited to smaller groups like our hypothetical family or our small traveling sales team. A larger office could use the services, in theory, but their inability to integrate with existing accounts and directories could make user management a pain on a large scale.
Asana, a product which more of you (including forum goers MrMarket and Cr.) recommended, is built with larger teams in mind, and will allow you to sign in with a Google or Google Apps ID if you have one. Asana is part tasks list, part ticket tracking system—you can create and share tasks and projects (lists composed of many tasks), and you can either assign tasks to co-workers, or add them as "followers"—allowing many people to stay abreast of how a task is progressing without creating confusion about who needs to take the next action. Asana provides mobile support via an iOS app and an HTML5 web client that will render in most modern desktop and mobile web browsers. Asana wins on affordability—the service is free for teams of up to 30 people. If you need to add more users, or if you'd like to take advantage of Asana's premium workspaces, you'll have to upgrade to one of the paid plans.

Visit a power plant in winter and you can literally see the heat pouring out of it as the hot air of its exhaust mixes unevenly with the cold air around it. It's easy to convince yourself that the mere burning of fossil fuels, rather than the greenhouse gasses the burning releases, could be altering the climate. But the total energy released is rather small on a global scale, so researchers have largely treated it as a rounding error. A new paper suggests that, although power generation doesn't add much heat, it changes the way the heat is distributed. And this has surprisingly large effects in some areas.
It's possible to estimate the total global energy use from all sources, then compare that to the factors that are known to drive the climate (called "forcings"). And it turns out to be rather minor; less than 0.1 Watt/m2 when averaged out over the globe. In contrast, the current forcing from human-delivered CO2 is about 1.5 Watts/m2. Given that, the direct heating of the atmosphere due to power consumption has largely been left out of climate models.
A paper, released over the weekend by Nature Climate Change, suggests we might want to put it back in. The authors note some urban areas show rather intense warming from power consumption (estimates for Tokyo get as high as 1,590 Watt/m2), which might be enough to alter the regional air circulation. Given that similar sources dot the continents, it's possible that the regional effects add up to a noticeable global shift.
The authors did a modeling experiment, taking the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Community Atmosphere Model CAM3, and adding point heat sources to represent urban centers. Eighty-six of them were added, each at a point where urban centers are estimated to add more than 0.4 Watt/m2. The heat was added to the lowest layer of the atmosphere, below 130m. The models were given a standard set of human and natural influences and allowed to run for 100 years.
As expected, warming in general didn't change much. But the location and timing of the warming did. In the winter months (December, January, and February), some areas of the globe were up to 1K warmer than they were in control runs that didn't include the point heat sources. The warmest regions ended up over northeast North America, as well as more western regions of Arctic Canada. Another huge warm area was centered over Siberia.
These areas faded out during the spring. Over the summer and autumn, were actually somewhat cooler than the control simulations would indicate, although the changes outside of winter were much smaller in general.
The nice thing about this is it may explain some of the discrepancies between climate models and real-world data. Models have largely predicted that the Arctic would warm faster than other regions, and reality has borne that out. But the real-world data indicates these areas are warming even faster than the models suggest they would, a discrepancy that has remained unexplained.
The models also show the weather phenomena we should expect to see associated with these changes, such as an area of low pressure in the Russian Arctic associated with a high-pressure region in central Asia. That combination explains how warmer air gets shifted north, and it provides an example of what we should be looking for to confirm the predictions based on this model.
The authors recognize their efforts are a first attempt, meant to highlight an area where we need more work. They note their model only incorporated about 42 percent of the global heat output from energy use (the rest would probably be more diffuse), and that we don't have a strong grip on the actual emissions in many urban areas. The implications are that a more refined model might do even better at matching model predictions to the actual warming we've observed.
In any case, they make a strong argument that the heat from energy use probably shouldn't be ignored. It may not change the trajectory of warming significantly, but it can apparently help shape where it hits the hardest.

Lucas - I'd bring him back as a 3rd string PG. But as a backup? NO.
Kleiza - Raps need to use the amnesty on him.
Gray - There are better backup C options out there.
Anderson - Not a fan of his chucking ways. And his 1 on 1 game. Just let him walk away.
Millsap - This guy should be the Raps #1 target in the offseason.
Foye/Augustin - Any of these two would be great as a backup PG. Augustin is my first choice though.
Korver - Raps need a 3pt specialist.
I'd fill the rest of the roster with veteran players just like what Glen Grunwald has done with the Knicks this year. I feel like this Raps team lacks veteran leadership.

Managing Your Symptoms
|What Problems Need Attention?
In sports injuries there's a very good rule of thumb - a relative scale by which to grade the severity of an injury. Here it is from least to worst.
Sometimes it seems as if procrastinating is hard-wired into our DNA. This is particularly true when it comes to our health. No one wants to go to the doctor, so it becomes even easier to put off the needed checkup. Whether it's our chiropractor, our dentist, or our family physician, nobody seems to want to pick up the phone, go to the office, and take care of business. Of course, procrastination in relation to our health can lead to some big problems. Tooth pain that comes and goes doesn't seem like such a big deal. But if the coming and going is fairly consistent, then there's probably a cavity that needs filling. You keep putting it off and when you finally get around to going to our dentist, you learn you need an expensive root canal and a crown. That's not good.
Or you're playing pickup basketball on the weekend. You go up for a rebound and get shoved in the back. The next day you have lower back pain. You keep thinking it'll go away, but it's now four weeks later and your back is still stiff and sore. Had you seen your chiropractor the first week, after the pain had persisted for four or five days, treatment might have been pretty straightforward. Now you learn it's going to take at least several weeks of treatment before you can play ball again. Not good. Diabetes is the same thing. 1High blood pressure is the same thing.2 Overweight is the same thing. 3Procrastination with your health always costs more time and more money in the end. Prevention and, if necessary, early detection, are the keys.
When it comes to your health, the opposite of procrastination is managing your symptoms. It's not necessary to run to your chiropractor for every ache and pain or to run to your family physician for every sniffle or low-grade fever. It is important and necessary to pay attention to what's going on with you. Symptoms that linger mean something is wrong and your body needs help in getting better. Once you begin paying attention a learning curve will kick in. You'll develop skill in identifying problems that need attention. The next step, of course, is to pick up the phone, make an appointment, and arrive at the appointment on time. Your chiropractor or family physician will be glad to be of service in identifying the problem and providing appropriate treatment.

U.S. Catholics split on church direction under new pope
- About 74%25 of U.S. Catholics have a favorable view of Pope Benedict XVI
- 51%25 want the new pope to maintain church traditions%3B 46%25 are hoping for change
- A majority of Catholics hope the next pope is from a developing region of the world
While the world waits to find out when the Catholic Church will choose the next pope and who it will be, a new survey shows that U.S. Catholics are divided on the direction the church should take.
Pope Benedict XVI made a shocking announcement Feb. 11 that, because of age and declining health, he would be the first pope in 600 years to step down.
Fifty-one percent of U.S. Catholics think the next pope should maintain the traditional positions of the church, according to a Pew Research Center poll. About 46% are hoping for change, and top requests include that the church become more modern (19%), get tougher on sex abuse (15%), allow priests to marry (14%), accept homosexuality (9%), allow women to be priests (9%), and lessen the church's opposition to the use of contraception (7%).
"It's striking to me that Catholics in the United States really do express a desire for the church to change in specific ways," said Greg Smith, senior researcher for Pew Research Center. "You've got this openness to change accompanied by a real appreciation for the traditions of the Catholic Church."
Pope Benedict's resignation, effective Feb. 28, means the Conclave of Cardinals will meet in Rome to elect a successor.
A majority of Catholics, 60%, say it would be a good thing if the next pope is from a developing region of the world, such as parts of South America, Asia or Africa.
Federico Lombardi, a Vatican spokesman, said he expects a new pope to be picked before Easter.
Looking back over Benedict's papacy, U.S. Catholics are overall pleased with the work he has done. However, his favorability rating isn't as high as its peak of 83% right after his papal visit to the United States in April 2008.
About 74% of U.S. Catholics polled express a favorable view of Benedict, 85, who served eight years as pope. Benedict was a staunch conservative when it came to church teachings, but brought about many technology changes to modernize the church. He tweets from an iPad, has a Facebook page and provides Vatican news from a YouTube channel.
Pope Benedict's ratings have never soared as high as his predecessor Pope John Paul II, who was rated favorably by 90% of U.S. Catholics in three separate Pew Research polls in the 1980s and 1990s.
U.S. Catholics are united on some fronts. Most give Benedict negative ratings for his handling of the sex-abuse scandal in the church. Among Catholics who say they followed news of the pontiff's resignation, 63% are displeased with how he addressed the sex-abuse scandal, while 33% give him positive ratings. These ratings are significantly more negative than in April 2008.
"I'll be very interested to see how Catholics in the United States and elsewhere react to the new pope," Smith said. "There really is a division."
The poll conducted Feb. 13-18 has a margin of error of +/-6.5 percentage points.

For smocked dresses, we suggest turning the dresses inside out to best protect the fabric. This will also prevent them from wrinkling too much!
For white clothing, avoid mixing with other colours. Preferably wash with similar shades.
Once the item is cleaned please leave to hang dry and avoid tumble drying. Do not bleach.
Extra buttons
If ever you happen to lose a button, two extra ones are sewn into the left side lining of the dress. Called "boutons de courtoisie" in French, these additional buttons are a symbol of high quality well-made garments.

Traditional couture - Smocks and embroidery expertise
Once pleated, the fabric is then smocked entirely by hand too. This skill is passed down from generation to generation within our atelier. Offering unlimited possibilities, smocks enhance our creativity.
All our embroideries are traditionally made with embroidery hoops. We call the result "needle painting" due to its delicacy. Thanks to this ancient know-how we achieve great precision and sophistication.
Each season is a new opportunity to experiment and renew our designs. Inspiration is gleaned from nature's beauty, cherished childhood memories, and most of all French culture. Our Parisian boutique L'Île aux Fées' surrounding is a constant source of amazement and new ideas.
We also use traditional coutures techniques for our finishings. Our hems and linings are also made by hand in order to obtain an invisible seam.
Even our buttons are self covered by hand!
Nothing is left to chance. We believe there is no age to enjoy well made clothes. At every step and up until the very last stitch, great care is provided. The wrong side is almost as clean as the right side. Your children deserve perfection.
Our story & team
Convinced that there is no age to appreciate high quality clothing and that "a thing of beauty is a joy forever"*, our handmade smocked dresses are jewels to treasure. Timeless classics, they are created as heirloom pieces to cherish and pass down from generation to generation.
More than offering elegant French style clothing, our deepest wish is to add joy to your children's special moments, to enhance small and big milestones with sparkles of love and bliss.
To make each child unique, to allow the princess lying within every little girl to bloom and blossom, we have made the choice of creating exclusive editions with one, great maximum two per size only.
Behind our brand lies the passionate skill and generous soul of Monique Ramahay.
She alone selects each and every fabric and designs all of our collections. Lovingly referred to as the "Queen of Smocks", her discerning taste and expert eye for colour harmonies is second to none. Season after season, her boundless creativity gives birth to new designs. If her style remains chic and classic, not one collection looks like another. Offering infinite possibilities, smocking and embroidery are her favorite playing field! Aged seventy two, her dynamism and thriving imagination is an example for us all.
To bring to live to these exquisite creations, Monique has surrounded herself with a small but highly dedicated crew. Working hand in hand we are almost like a family.
Our production team, expert in traditional handmade smocks and embroideries is made of fourteen women and one man. They are based in Madagascar, home country of our designer. Pioneer at the time, Monique was indeed one of the first, more than three decades ago, to unite the exceptional craftsmanship of her island with timeless French style. Raised between the two countries, she took the very best of each culture to create her very own atelier and magical universe.
The choice of Paris where she has spent more than half of her life came as an evidence for our boutique. It is in the capital that she meet her young soul partner, Sybille de La Presle. If more than forty five years set them apart, they make a perfect duo. In charge of L'Île aux Fées, our authentic Parisian store and of the e-shop, Sybille had "a coup de coeur" with the brand at first sight during her studies and has never left it since then.
Our love of France can be felt throughout our whole universe. May our collections allow you to travel to our beautiful country and give your children's wardrobe a chic French style. If ever you travel to Paris, please come and visit us. We would be more than happy to welcome you.
In the meantime we wish you and your families all the best!

The name of the brand itself is exquisite and immediately has us travelling to soft and dreamy worlds. Its designer, Marisela Mena, based in Florida is just as sweet. Handcrafting each and every bow, we appreciate her wide range of choice.
The numerous fabric options, velvet, gauze, linen, cotton to silk, organza and lace trim offers a large choice adapted to all types of circumstances! A classic cotton bow for school, a velvet one to add a royal like feel to a party dress, etc….
We also like the possibility of selecting the size of the accessories. This allows a perfect fit for all ages, babies, toddlers and older girls.
The options of nylon nude bands or alligator clip to attach the bows is another asset of the brand. Peketita bows and flowers bows adapt to all kinds of hair, whether long, short, curly or straight!
For a French look we would tend to recommend smaller size bows, for more of an American style we suggest larger bows.

Leonardo's Code
If you know me at all, you know I have an ongoing love/hate relationship with Arduino. I like that it has launched a whole ecosystem of inexpensive and readily available peripherals. I don't like the clunky IDE, the bizarre terms (like sketch), and the fan boy culture surrounding it. Perhaps part of what I don't like is the lack of innovation. At the core, the Arduino is nothing more than an Atmel chip, a bootloader, and the GNU C compiler. There's also a very simple (and hardly necessary) C language framework and a truly bad Java-based IDE that's only good feature is the way it integrates libraries (well, until you look at how it does it under the covers, but that's another topic).

All that applies to the traditional Arduino. However, I recently picked up an Arduino Leonardo board. It still suffers from the horrible IDE (and I talked about how to avoid the IDE before). It does, however, add something very powerful. USB support.
It is true that some Arduino boards — maybe even most — have a USB port. But that USB port essentially was a serial-to-USB adapter built on the board, not an integral part of the Arduino. The Leonardo's USB port is a real USB port accessible by the CPU. It still looks like a serial port for downloading and debugging your software. It can also look like a keyboard or a mouse! It can even look like all three devices at the same time.
As usual, the Arduino provides a clean library that's easy to use, so building an alternate keyboard or mouse becomes drop-dead simple. I've talked about building HID devices before and it wasn't that simple. Actually, it wasn't simple at all.
In the past, when I've used an Arduino it has been because they are readily available, but it wouldn't be my first choice for a project. However, if I were building a custom HID device, I would not hesitate for a second to select the Leonardo (or a similar USB-integrated Arduino). The ease of use is amazing.
How easy it is? Here's how to send Dr. Dobb's to your PC as though it were typed from the keyboard. This is the function that drives the sensor board (you can also download the entire file):
Keyboard.begin(); Keyboard.print("Dr. Dobb's"); Keyboard.end();
If you need to press modifier keys, you can use
Keyboard.press and
Keyboard.release, so the system is pretty flexible. The mouse is just as easy to use.
Compare that to how much code it takes to stand up an HID device without using a library (and yes, I know there are other libraries). In addition, having the serial port through the same line for debugging is very convenient (although, if you were writing a serious HID device, you might want to use the second serial port for printing debugging messages).
So what were the three things I learned?
1. How to get the IDE to work on Linux
The Leonardo's serial port shows up on Linux as /dev/ttyACMx (where x is some number like 0 or 1). That didn't throw me, but the IDE couldn't find it. I had read that the IDE actually figures out where the board is by putting the board through a reset. Because the serial port is software running on the Leonardo, the port disappears and then reappears. The IDE assumes any port that suddenly appears is probably the Leonardo and downloads to it. I just couldn't get this to work at all.
I tried to download the latest Arduino IDE but it still couldn't see the ACM port. I know the Java-based Arduino IDE uses the RXTX library for serial ports, so I tried removing the ones that come with the Arduino IDE and let the software use my default ones. That didn't work.
It turns out, you really do need to use the supplied RXTX libraries. You also need to modify the arduino executable (don't worry; it is just a shell script). The very last line is a Java command line that starts the actual IDE. You need to add –Dgnu.io.rxtx.SerialPorts=/dev/ttyACM0 to the arguments on that line (of course, use the right number if your Leonardo doesn't show up as port 0). While you are there, you might take out the swing option that sets the GTK look and feel — I hear some machines run the IDE faster without that option, although I didn't notice much difference.
2. !Serial really waits for the PC to open the port, not just connect.
Because the serial port disappears on every reset, it is common to see Leonardo programs use this idiom to wait for the serial port:
while (!Serial);
This doesn't hurt anything on other Arduinos, so you see it in a lot of example code. I always thought this code would just wait for the serial port enumeration to complete (which takes a fair amount of time, by the way). However, it actually waits for something to open the port on the PC. So if you don't open the serial monitor, this will hang your program forever.
In the past, I've peppered my code with serial output statements for debugging and just left them in when I was done. You can still do that, but you better comment out that
while statement, or your program won't run without an open terminal on the Leonardo's com port.
3. The IDE doesn't save before it compiles.
I actually ran into this before, but it bit me again this week. If the IDE crashes, any unsaved changes you made are gone. That might seem obvious, but most IDEs I've used save your code on each compile. So the most you lose is what you've done since the last build. The Arduino IDE does not do this. If you never saved your code then you'll get an empty file after a crash no matter how many times you've built your project.
Of course, the IDE has to save your code somewhere. It actually mixes it in with a bunch of other things and saves it in a temporary directory. In my case, I found the code in /tmp/build6606660780136176668.tmp (you can do a directory listing in /tmp sorted by date and find the most likely candidates). My program was called ranger, so the ranger.cpp file had my code in it, interspersed with extra stuff added by the IDE (#include and #line directives, mostly). It just took a minute to remove the extra lines and recover my file. Another reason I don't care for the IDE.
What could you do with the USB capability of the Leonardo? A host of custom keyboard ideas come to mind. Foot pedals for common input sequences. A detector that sends keys when an infrared beam breaks, or a temperature is too hot. Sure, you don't need to do this through a keyboard, but (as you'll see next time) you don't need any software on the computer to make it work. Most computers have some way to translate keystrokes into actions (AutoHotKey on Windows, for example; many different ways on Linux either built-in or using something like xdotool). So starting a video, for example, when someone breaks an infrared beam should require no custom software on the PC at all. It is easy to imagine a Leonardo and an accelerometer becoming a customized mouse. Again, the PC already knows how to read the mouse input, so you don't need any special software.
Next time, I'll show you a quick project that uses a cheap ultrasonic sensor and makes use of these ideas. I still won't say I'm a rabid Arduino fan, but I'm getting a lot of ideas related to custom HID devices that take minutes to create instead of days.

Bring movies to the mezzanine is latest musical craze
How extreme is the craze for adapting movies into musicals? Consider what's singing out at the Kennedy Center:
"Elf the Musical," based on the 2003 Will Ferrell hit, is currently hopping through the Opera House. "Flashdance - The Musical," an expansion of the hugely popular 1980s movie, is also running in the Eisenhower. Last month, a tour of "Sister Act" wimpled through.
That undeclared mini-festival is just the tip of an iceberg that may be sabotaging ingenuity in one of America's proudest native art forms. And while the run on Hollywood titles may suggest a gold rush, the formula for success is inscrutable. Offbeat triumphs were nabbed by minor movie titles such as "Once," "Kinky Boots" and "Grey Gardens," while such Hollywood blockbusters as "Ghost" and "Catch Me if You Can" - the latter by "Hairspray" songwriters Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman, who would seem to know how these conversions work - flamed out fast.
The one sure thing: Like a Netflix menu, the titles keep coming.
"Big Fish," "Far From Heaven" and "Little Miss Sunshine" all lifted their newly musical voices lately in New York. Big musicals due on Broadway this winter and spring: "Aladdin," "The Bridges of Madison County" (a successful novel made even more popular by the Clint Eastwood-Meryl Streep film), "Bullets Over Broadway" and "Rocky." Just announced for off-Broadway in March: "Heathers."
The fad is international: "American Psycho," "The Bodyguard," "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and "From Here to Eternity" are all running in London's West End.
"Coal Miner's Daughter" is in the works. So is "Dirty Dancing" (now on U.S. tour, and playing in London), "Ever After," "Honeymoon in Vegas" and even "King Kong," a rock spectacular that has already conquered Australia and stars a one-ton gorilla puppet 20 feet tall.
Even the most highbrow composers can't resist the lure of musicalizing movies. The property Stephen Sondheim kept saying he'd like to get around to in the past decade or so but never did? "Groundhog Day." And what has "Light in the Piazza" composer Adam Guettel been working on since the plug was pulled on his unfinished version of "The Princess Bride"? "Days of Wine and Roses" and the 2004 Danny Boyle movie, "Millions."
Michael John LaChiusa's "Giant," which made its debut at Signature Theatre in Arlington, Va., several seasons ago, finally made it to New York (briefly) last year. That LaChiusa worked from the Edna Ferber novel is moot, marketing-wise: Audiences hear "Giant" and think Liz Taylor, Rock Hudson and James Dean. Likewise Signature's premiere musical next spring, based on the Iris Rainer Dart novel that became the Bette Midler screen smash, "Beaches."
Isn't this dependency on Hollywood-branded titles strangling Broadway's originality? According to the composers of the musicals scrolling through the Kennedy Center, it ain't necessarily so.
"With 'Sister Act,' I was resistant," says composer and uber-adapter Alan Menken, whose first stage hit was 1982's "Little Shop of Horrors" and who owns eight Oscars for songs and scores of the movies "The Little Mermaid," "Beauty and the Beast," "Pocahontas" and "Aladdin." He helped convert "Mermaid" and "Beast" into stage hits, and his new musical of "Aladdin" just opened in Toronto en route to its first Broadway performances in February. Last year Menken won his first Tony with "Newsies," adapting his own score from the 1989 Disney film; a January workshop is scheduled for Menken's new musical of the Disney film "Hunchback of Notre Dame."
"People were saying, 'Oh, my God, everything's coming from film, it's getting uncreative,'" Menken says by phone from his home in the New York area. "But I think it depends on where it comes from, and what you do with it."
The "Sister Act" title "felt tired," Menken said, but he warmed to the challenge of revitalizing it for the stage. The 1990s story was relocated to 1970s, allowing Menken to pen disco songs and R&B tunes.
In the end, he says, "I loved it. Once you throw that gauntlet down, you find yourself doing it."
Menken argues that movies are a natural source for musicals, just as books and plays were for so many standards written in Broadway's Golden Age, from "My Fair Lady" to "South Pacific."
"Most of those hit shows were based on things they read, or based on plays," Menken says. "We're in a different culture," he adds, wondering if adaptations of TV series will be next.
"Elf" composer Matthew Sklar suggests that "The Producers" in 2001 was a turning point. The tidal wave of 1980s and 1990s megamusicals finally crashed, and "The Producers" reintroduced the world to musical comedy.
"After 9/11, I think people wanted to laugh," says Sklar, whose musicals with lyricist and book writer Chad Beguelin include a short-lived 2006 Broadway musical of the Adam Sandler comedy "The Wedding Singer."
But it was Disney and the 1994 "Beauty and the Beast" that really unlocked Pandora's Box. That show ran 13 years and paved the way for "The Lion King," which has been an unrelenting smash since 1997. The first week of this December, "The Lion King" grossed nearly $2 million for its eight performances on Broadway alone, filling 93 percent of the 1,597 seats in the Minskoff Theater and averaging $155 a ticket. National and international tours continue, sweetening the pot.
Even though Menken asserts that the lure of Hollywood dates to Gershwin and Irving Berlin, the aggressive theatrical arm of Disney in the 1990s plainly paved a new avenue for Hollywood execs to tread. Film studios increasingly opened their own theatrical divisions after the Disney hits and the next decade's successes of "The Producers," "Hairspray" and "Wicked."
"Now you literally have heads of studios coming in wanting to be deeply and directly involved," Menken says. "By film standards, it's practically dirt cheap to put up a musical." (The new musical "If/Then," which recently finished its five week pre-Broadway tryout at the National Theater in Washington, cost $10 million.) "If a show is successful, they go, Wow! Then it's like a streetwalker with a Cadillac: 'Hey, honey, want a title?' I get that all the time."
"Flashdance" composer Robbie Roth confirms. "I am most often approached by people interested in adapting movies," he says from his home in Toronto.
Roth is new to musicals, and he is emphatically not what the producers are hawking. "Featuring the No. 1 Hit Songs You Love," the "Flashdance" ad copy promises. Living up to a familiar story, characters and maybe even sound can be tricky.
"People come in and are excited to hear 'Maniac,'" Roth says of "Flashdance," which made its 2010 debut in London and has been retooled for its ongoing U.S. tour. He has written over a dozen original songs for the show, which is aimed for Broadway but hasn't clinched a date yet.
Roth, 40, likes writing for the stage after years of penning pop tunes and working in rock bands. He has an original show in the works - but also another adapting gig with "Drumline." For "Flashdance," he says, "My job is keep it in the world of 'Maniac' and 'Gloria' and all those songs so it didn't feel like a cross section of eras."
"You have to manage the expectations and hope people enjoy your show," Sklar says. For "Elf," the tasks were to make the cast smaller and get the story off the North Pole and into New York faster. The upside, Sklar says from Manhattan, was being able to compose a relatively traditional score with big band overtones.
Still: Aren't all these adaptations trumping fresh ideas?
"There are a lot of original musicals being written," Sklar contends. He points to producers who have shepherded new material to success: Kevin McCollum of "Avenue Q" and "In the Heights," David Stone of "Next to Normal" and perhaps "If/Then." "There are a few producers on Broadway that get them there. But it's a difficult thing to do."
"There is still an excitement and an urge to write original material," Roth says. "Whether it has the same opportunity to be heard, I don't know."
If not, is the obstacle producers who won't bankroll something they haven't heard of? Or audiences leery of paying $100 and up for tickets to something they know nothing about?
"Those things feed each other," Sklar says. "Producers are reluctant to put money into something if they have no idea who the audience is going to be. It's just so expensive these days."
Menken, who pleads guilty to signing on for a cynical project or two during his career, says, "There are certain titles where you roll your eyes: They did it because of the title. But that's probably true of any number of musicals going back through time."
Then Menken notes one of the silver linings for composers: royalties, and the fact that songwriters have a hard time getting paid now in the age of digital sharing. " 'A Whole New World' made me a lot of dough," Menken says of his 1992 "Aladdin" ballad with lyricist Tim Rice. "Live theater is one of the few viable ways for a composer to actually make any money. That's why so many rock musicians are coming to Broadway. I'm sure Elton John makes more from his theater projects" - "The Lion King," "Aida," "Billy Elliott" - "than from his albums."
Menken recalls what it's like to start from scratch, pushing uphill to get backing for something brand-new. These days, he's mainly interested in work that can get done. So he likes the support of a producer - Disney - with the infrastructure to develop a show and put the result onstage. And that may well mean working with established titles and ready-made projects.
As Menken says, "There's a ton of those things around."

NASA's Human Exploration and Operations director William Gerstenmaier visited Michoud on June 21 to view progress at Michoud Assembly Facility and Stennis Space Center on the Space Launch System (SLS) and the Orion Multipurpose Crew Vehicle (MPCV) programs. The event included an all-hands meeting, the presentation of multiple Space Flight Awareness (SFA) and Silver Snoopy awards, and a ribbon cutting ceremony at Boeing's Vertical Weld Center (VWC) that unveiled the new tooling to the public.
To kick off his visit at Michoud, Gerstenmaier held an all-hands meeting with Michoud employees. Roy Malone, Director of the NASA Michoud Assembly Facility, kicked off the event by introducing the speakers and welcoming the workforce. Gerstenmaier's comments centered around his pride in Michoud's workforce and the program successes our workforce has achieved.
"Before me, I see a team that will be putting together the next vehicle taking NASA beyond low Earth orbit and beyond the moon… each one of you here in this group will start that foundation and that movement," he stated, "I have total confidence in your ability to get the job done safely, on time and within budget."
Gerstenmaier also addressed several questions from the audience before beginning the awards ceremony. NASA Astronaut Ricky Arnold took the stage and presented five employees with a Silver Snoopy Award. This award, presented on behalf of the entire NASA Astronaut Corps, is given to the awardee for "professionalism, dedication, and outstanding support that greatly enhances space flight safety and mission success." Congratulations to Silver Snoopy recipients Rhonda Smitherman-Hickman (NASA), Gregory Folkes (Boeing), Albert Reville (Boeing), Greg Riddle (Boeing), and Donald Regan (Lockheed Martin).
Next, two teams were recognized for their exemplary performance. The Safety Insta-gators, represented on-stage by member Debbie Marino, were recognized for their work in identifying and mitigating safety issues at Michoud and emphasized the team's dedication to building a culture of caring within the workforce. The Launch Abort Systems (LAS) Fairing Manufacturing Team, represented by Jay Leighton, was lauded for their outstanding performance in the fabrication and delivery of the Orion Exploration Flight Test-1 LAS hardware.
After concluding the employee appreciation event, Gerstenmaier led a ribbon cutting ceremony unveiling Michoud's Vertical Weld Center, a tool used in the manufacturing of barrel sections of the SLS rocket. Also participating were, Patrick Scheuermann, director of NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center; Roy Malone, director of Michoud Assembly Facility; David Doss, representing U.S. Senator David Vitter, Louisiana State Senator Jean-Paul Morrell, Representative Ray Garofalo, Representative Greg Cromer, and Virgina Barnes, Boeing's SLS Program Manager.
Barnes commented, "This program is exceeding expectations on all of the plans… I've never seen a program perform this well at this stage." She recognized the work force for their superior performance and unwavering support for the program.
After the ceremony, the participants were invited to tour the facility and view the progress being made on the SLS and Orion MPCV assembly line.
