Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Apr 01st, 1993
Running Time: 68
Director: Sebastian (I)
Company: Infinity Video
Cast: Tony Martino, Dixie Dynamite, Jake Steed, Cal Jammer, Jeanna Fine, Brigitte Aime, Alicia Rio, Jade East
Critical Rating: AA
Genre: Feature
It takes talent to trash a marketable video idea. Jeanna Fine and Alicia Rio are present for the high-powered talent angle. Leanna "Dixie Dynamite" Foxxx and her amazing snap-on mammaries appear in a 3-on-1 scene for the hardcore big boob lovers. Despite all this, it is obviously a very low energy "quickie" video. The sex scenes are mostly lame. Check it out only if you are hopelessly curious.

2013 FFFC Finalist: Tspiedo Speeds Past the Competition
Thanks in large part to Michael Vick's egregious 428 passing yards in Week 2, FanDuel rookie tspiedo sped his way to the top of the fantasy food chain by winning FanDuel's $10 FFFC Qualifier.
Quickly thrust onto the FanDuel top prospect rankings, tspiedo is now just looking to enjoy the ride. "I already won out of 7,200 with $10, I'm free-rolling!
What is your favorite game time snack?
Pretzel with cheese.
Who was your greatest fantasy performer ever?
I'm going to have to go with Michael Vick last week.*
*33.22 FanDuel points
If you could change one rule regarding fantasy football, what would it be?
Every week is different, so it's hard to say what I'd change. I wouldn't change anything.
What song best defines your style of play?
Can we come back to that one?
Do you have a sports hero and if so, who?
Jack Nicklaus, he was a legend and set the precedent.
If you could describe daily fantasy sports in one word, what would it be?
(A) blast.
What do you love about FanDuel?
I literally signed up for two-three tournaments because of my friend and didn't even know what I was signing up for. My friend calls me when I'm getting off the plane, he says "you have a real legitimate shot to win this." I mean it was my first week!
If you had to compare yourself as a fantasy player to one fictional character, who would it be and why?
Yoda. Because you have to be quietly intelligent, but yet very modest.
What will you do with the $1 million if you win?
I'm not even thinking about it. I'm just trying to go there and have fun, see what happens!

Talk:Kanto Route 25
Internet Rumors
Do we have confirmation on this? "The route layout in Generations I and III is nearly identical. The only change is the closing of the hill behind the Sea Cottage in Generation III due to the numerous internet rumors about what lay beyond Sea Cottage in Generation I." The part in bold sounds rather speculatory to me. --Phantom♫Junkie 04:02, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

For Christmas I've decided to get some things to take Gracelyn's nursery from newbornish to toddlerish style. I love our theme (Ladybug Lullabye) because it's not too babyish and will work for her until she's 4-5, as long as she's in a toddler bed. I'd post pictures but I'm still not sure how to do that on the mac.Ā
Gracelyn's crib is convertible although I plan to keep it a crib for a while, and I still use the changing table constantly. How have the rest of your nurseries transformed over the past 16 or so months? I'd love to see then and now pics if possible. Thanks!

In 1740s England, the roots of evil run deep...
The year is 1740. George II is on the throne, but England's remoter provinces remain largely a law unto themselves. In Lancashire a grim discovery has been made: a squire's wife, Dolores Brockletower, lies in the woods above her home at Garlick Hall, her throat brutally slashed.
Called to the scene, Coroner Titus Cragg finds the Brockletower household awash with rumor and suspicion. He enlists the help of his astute young friend, doctor Luke Fidelis, to throw light on the case.
But this is a world in which forensic science is in its infancy, and policing hardly exists. Embarking on their first gripping investigation, Cragg and Fidelis are faced with the superstition of witnesses, obstruction by local officials, and denunciations from the squire himself. A Dark Anatomy marks the arrival of a remarkable new voice in mystery and a pair of detectives both cunning and complex.

Read an Excerpt
Dark Anatomy, A
Chapter One
ACCORDING TO THE case notes, and checked against my private journal, it was on Tuesday the 18th of March, 1740, that a succession of disturbing events ran their course through the life of our tidy Palatinate town of Preston. That was the day on which, three hours after dawn, Dolores, wife to Squire Ramilles Brockletower of Garlick Hall, was found lying in the forest in her riding clothes, beneath an ancient oak tree.
At eight o'clock in the morning, I was sitting down to breakfast alone in the parlour when, having only just filled my tankard, I heard the brass knocker on our front door hammering. Next, a voice could be heard asking for the coroner. Finally, our girl Matty pushed a scrawny lad, whom I recognized to be the Brockletowers' kitchen boy, Jonah Marsden, through the parlour door. His eyes were popping with the import of his news.
'Well, Jonah. What's the matter?'
The boy extracted from his shirt a folded paper, which I took and opened. It was from his grandmother, the briefest of messages.
To Mr Titus Cragg, Coroner. Sir, a deplorable mortal accident has occurred. I beg you to return at once with the boy who brings this. Bethany Marsden, Housekeeper.
I studied the signature: firm, confident and businesslike. I put the paper down.
'Please elaborate, Jonah.'
The boy looked blank.
'I mean, what is this about?'
'Oh! Mistress is slaughtered, sir. In forest. This morning.'
I lifted the tankard and took a sip of beer. Twenty years in the law had taught me that a measured manner is the best project in such circumstances. I lowered the tankard again and dabbed my lips with the napkin.
'Who found the body? Was it you?'
'No, sir, I were nowhere near. It were Timothy Shipkin the woodsman found her.'
'And you say the body was away from the house and in the woods?'
'Timothy says. In Fulwood, up above Squire's own woods by the hall, under a big old oak. Seemed like she'd come down to earth, through branches.'
The night had been one of storms right enough, but Jonah's choice of words had caught my attention.
'Come down? How?'
Jonah's face twisted this way and that.
'I don't know, sir. Timothy says it seemed like Mistress dove down from the sky. Her face and hands were in the earth.'
'That's a very particular way of describing it, wouldn't you say?'
The boy did not reply, but he watched like a cat as I took another sip of beer and sawed through the slice of cold beef on my plate. And though I continued this performance of imperturbable chewing and sipping, I will admit my heart had quickened in the anticipation of interesting discoveries. I looked at this spindly messenger of death, who stood beside me with cap wrung between his hands, eyes tracking the food from the plate to my lips. I cut a crust of bread from the loaf and handed it to him. Without pausing to thank me he stuffed it into his mouth.
'So you didn't yourself see the body?'
The bread for a time gagged Jonah. He shook his head.
'How, then, did you hear of it?'
Agony filled the boy's eyes but it was not for the memory of Mistress Brockletower. In his hunger he had tried to swallow the hard crust before properly chewing it.
'It's what they're all saying at Hall. First light, Mistress went out riding, as she does,' he managed to say hoarsely, after forcing the food down at last. 'But the mare came back without her. Then us all went out looking until Timothy Shipkin come running down from woods, saying he'd found her. He told my grandma at back door and she wrote that note and sent me down here to give it you, sir.'
I rapped the note with my forefinger.
'I note that Mrs Marsden says "accident". Why did you, when you first spoke to me, say "slaughtered"?'
For a moment the boy looked terrified, as if I had asked him to prove one of Euclid's propositions. Then he screwed up his face as he addressed the question more collectedly.
'Don't know, sir,' he said at last. 'I mean, it's how Mistress were found ...'
Jonah was shifting from one foot to the other, still watching me as I resumed eating.
'Go on.'
His face relaxed into a more neutral form of concentration, as if he were about to recite a lesson at school. Not that this boy had ever had any schooling.
'It's how she died, sir. See, Mistress's throat were cut. From ear to ear, so Timothy Shipkin says.'
And, just in case I had not appreciated the weight of this information, Jonah tilted back his head and drew his forefinger along the line that the blade would have followed: from here - to here.
Laying down the fork I closed my eyes, making a picture in my mind of Dolores Brockletower, on the last occasion that I had seen her. It was at a recent hunt - a tall, angular woman whose physical vigour was well known and whose feats on horseback had become part of local mythology.
Well known though she was, the simple demise of a squire's lady - of this particular squire certainly - would not be bound to bring much caterwauling, at least outside her own family, and perhaps not even within it. But to have the lady die violently, her throat sliced open, was quite a different matter. It might set off a small earthquake in a pocket-parish like Garlick. Well, it would be my task to quash that possibility, if I could.
I picked up the napkin and dabbed my lips. Then, clearing my throat, I leaned back in the chair, and said airily, 'I wonder ... when Mrs Marsden handed you the note, did you happen see Miss Brockletower while you were at the back door?'
'Well, sir, I - '
But, before Jonah could complete his sentence, my sweet Elizabeth came running in with the folds of her apron bunched in her fists. She had heard the news from Matty.
'What a dreadful thing,' she cried. 'Dolores Brockletower dead! What happened to her, Titus?'
As she came to me I held out my hand and she dropped her apron to take it. I squeezed her slim, pretty fingers and told her the gist of Jonah's news, omitting only the explicit fact of the gashed throat.
'And so, I suppose, I will have to go over there,' I said. 'To find the truth out.'
Elizabeth leaned and kissed me on the forehead.
'That you must, sir,' she said, 'and go quickly about it, or else the scent will be cold.'
I had already ordered my horse to be ready at half past eight since I was due this morning to discuss with a group of cottagers in the country towards Chorley what action could be taken against a farmer illegally enclosing a piece of common land. So now I quickly scraped my plate, drained my beer and rose.
'Elizabeth, my love, as always you are right,' I said, leaning to kiss her mouth.
Telling the boy to wait for me, I strode into the hall, crossed it and swung open the door connecting the house with the office. Furzey was already at his writing desk. I asked him to represent me with the cottagers as I had been urgently summoned on coroner's business. Furzey protested that the cottagers would be disappointed not to be attended by the attorney himself.
I said, 'Just tell them the clerk always knows five times more than his principal and they'll be pacified.'
I returned to the house where the boy was waiting by the front door.
'Come along, Jonah,' I said. 'You ride behind.'
A few minutes later I was in the saddle, hoicking the boy onto the cob's rump. And so we jolted off together on the road to Garlick. It was a ride of some forty-five minutes at a gentle pace - which was as fast as I considered young Jonah could sustain. We went east down to the end of Church Gate, where the way branches to the right down a hollow way towards the Ribble bridge and the bridge-end settlement of Fishwick. But we went straight ahead, past the windmill on Town End Fields, and were soon trotting pleasantly along Ribbleton Lane. As we encroached on Ribbleton Moor the lane-side hedges and trees, which had begun to come into bud, were lively with birds twittering and building their nests.
It was apparent that news about the Lady of Garlick had already travelled to every corner of the parish, like a spider running around its web. At a squalid place called Gamull, where a row of tottering cottages lined each side of the road, people came out and called after us. At first I took no notice. But then one of them caught my attention and I reined in the horse. It was a woman whose name I knew, Miriam Patten.
'What they're saying about the wife of Mr Brockletower,' she croaked. 'Is that true, Mr Cragg?'
Miriam was a widow, ancient and raggedly dressed. She was so poor that her house was chimneyless, with just a hole in the thatch to let smoke out - and that only when she had the fuel for a fire. She was one of those who keeps a cow in the house, as much to give warmth at night as milk in the morning. She was also one who, from time to time, receives a sack of coals and a bag of flour in charity from my wife, and other Preston ladies.
'I don't know,' I said. 'What are they saying?'
She leered up at me, allowing a sight of the blackened stumps of her teeth.
'That the Devil finally lost the taste for her society, and chucked her over the roof.'
I laughed.
'The Devil himself? Coming into this small parish? I think we rather flatter ourselves if we are saying that, Miriam Patten.'
I shook the reins and we rode on, leaving the draughty hovels of Gamull behind us.
This narrative, I suppose, may be read in places, or at times, in which squires are of no account - whatever levelling times as may lie ahead, or future gardens of Eden. If so, I must make it plain first that the squire was a gentleman of much importance in this particular time and place. A Justice of the Peace, a Member of Parliament in Lord Derby's interest, he owned most of the land around Garlick; the southern boundaries skirted the north-western edge of Fulwood Forest, and stretched away for half a dozen miles to the north and east. He kept a stable of expensive horses and a kennel of hounds.
And he was hated by his tenants.
Brockletower was a younger son and never thought he would inherit. In the short time since the unexpected death of his brother he'd set about remodelling whichever parts of Garlick Hall he judged improvable by mathematical architecture. He went to London and came back with a stupefying array of Italian pictures and marbles to clutter the house. The passion for these novelties is a powerful one in those whom it seizes. I remember, in Italy when I was young, how milords exactly like young Brockletower would congregate in rooms strewn with old stone fragments, picking through them like rooks behind the plough.
A wealthy, liberal, improving squire is no doubt an adornment to any manor, especially one who employs so many extra local hands in the continual knocking down and rebuilding of his house. It is how Ramilles Brockletower viewed himself and wished others to view him. And it made him angry that they did not. But his tenants and labourers, and many of the people that lived round about, continued to grumble against him, saying that a large part of the Brockletower estate was not truly the Brockletowers' by right, but had been filched from the forest - land which belonged to all the people. In their opinion the Brockletower family were nothing less than thieves of the land. It was a complaint much heard around the country in those days.
The Brockletowers, however, had always gone about their filching by scrupulously legal means. In the time of King William, old William Brockletower got an Act of Parliament that handed him the right to enclose twenty acres of the common fronting his house. This land, around the Savage Brook and the woods and wastes that stretched across the flat higher ground on either side of it, had formerly been freely grazed by the cottagers' animals, and otherwise provided their owners with inexhaustible quantities of firewood, not to mention berries, roots, mushrooms, bird's eggs, bulbs of wild garlic and nuts at various seasons. Yet by a decision of that far-distant assembly, which knew nothing of this common, or the people who depended on it, the Brockletowers had been authorized to engross the acres to themselves, and to exclude all others from the use of it. Naturally they made out it was done in the sacred name of improvement, and for the future welfare of our great nation. But the country people said to hell with the nation, and bugger improvement. It was only done for their own enrichment, the beautification of their park and better shooting for their guns.
Ramilles the son quickly let it be known he would be even more assiduous in these efforts than his father. Black Ram Brockletower, they had begun to call him, saying he was in the habit of summoning succubi to his bed, as well as that of his wife, and of holding conference with the Devil.
We turned off the bridle path and threaded our way through the trees, Jonah explaining that Mrs Marsden told him to take me here first, where the body had been found, before I went to the Hall. After a while, the largest clearing in this part of the wood came into view between the foliage and, at its centre, an oak so ancient that it was half decayed. What had been the original trunk still stood thirty feet high, but it was dead. The sockets of its fallen branches had opened up, making three or four dark portholes into the interior at various heights. But a second bifurcating trunk had grown up from the same deep-set roots and this was thriving. Its leaves were budding and preparing to spread themselves in the air.
Riding nearer, but still at a distance, I heard voices and made out a small group of men and women standing in a huddle, as if meeting together in prayer. The impression was erased when they tossed back their heads in laughter at something one of them said. I was puzzled at first by an object on the ground, a grey hump a few feet from them, lying at the foot of the tree. Then I realized this must be the lady's corpse, concealed under a sheet of burlap. As we approached, the attendant group composed their faces and began watching me sidelong. I pulled up the horse and Jonah slipped to the ground. I more methodically dismounted and walked up to the tree. The small band shuffled a little further away, except for one, Philip Barkworth (author of the witticism that had enlivened the others), who stepped forward and pulled the sacking away. I looked down at what he had uncovered.
These were manifestly the remains of Dolores Brockletower, dressed in her riding outfit of scarlet dress under a black jacket. In death she was no vision of elegance, for she had died in the undignified, rump-in-the-air posture of a pig rooting out truffles. The body had gone down on a patch of almost bare earth, with arms folded under the torso, the hands pressed palm-down by the bosom, the nose pushed into the ground that had been softened by recent rain, as if attempting to inhale the earth. I lowered myself to my haunches and squinted at the neck. A bloody gash evidently began (or perhaps it ended) just below the left earlobe and jagged downwards. Losing sight of it, I rose, took a pace back, stepped around to the other side of the dead woman, and crouched again. Here I saw, on the right-hand side, where the gash finished up (unless it had in fact started), at a spot lower down than on the other, at least two inches below the hinge of the jaw. Along the whole of its length the sloping wound was caked with a dried lip of black scab half an inch thick. In the leaf-mould below I saw the coagulated pool of gore. Suppressing a spasm of nausea I stood up and surveyed the cold, stiffening bag of flesh that had previously housed the soul of Dolores Brockletower.
There were four present, apart from the boy and myself. I looked at each of them in turn: Old Matt Thwaite, whose beard reached to his belt, the witty Barkworth, fat Jenny Milroy and pretty Susannah Shipkin.
'Where's Timothy Shipkin?' I asked. 'Wasn't he the finder? Susannah, where's your father?'
Susannah was a girl of seventeen with clear blue eyes, creamy skin, a raspberry mouth and full hips. She works as dairymaid at the Hall.
'Medad's not come home, sir,' she said. 'After he told them at Hall what he found, he didn't come back for his breakfast. Happen he's gone on to Shot's Hill. He's felling a dead beech up there.'
Shot's Hill is a tree-crested ridge the other side of the big house, a remnant of the old forest, just a hundred yards wide, with fields lying beyond it that were once part of the woodland, and are now laid to grass pasture for the squire's cows and sheep. It was strange that Timothy took himself off. For most men, the vanity of being the first finder of a woman's mysterious corpse is enough to make them stay and enjoy the glory.
'He'll be hungry, then,' I remarked. 'And what about the squire? Has he not been up here himself? The summons I had was from Mrs Marsden. But why does Mr Brockletower not come to bring his wife home?'
Thwaite shook his head.
'Squire knows nowt about it, we're thinking. He's away to York on his affairs this past seven days.'
'Is he indeed? And when expected back?'
'Our Poll says he's to come back today, sir,' said Jenny, whose sister Polly was also a maid at the house.
'Has anyone touched the body?'
'We've not gone nearer to her than we are now, sir,' said Jenny.
'None of you?'
They all shook their heads.
'We've covered her and guarded her,' growled Thwaite, assuming the role of foreman. 'But we've not looked close at her. Better to wait for you, sir, is what we thought.'
I considered for a moment, then pulled the sacking back over the hunched cadaver.
'And has anything been found? Any weapon, or object, that might have caused this injury?'
The four looked at each other.
Thwaite said, 'Not a thing, sir.'
'Have you looked?'
They evidently had not. I strode back towards my cob.
'I suggest you do. Quarter the ground of this clearing between you. If you find anything, keep it safe for me. Now I must go down to the Hall. I'll send back a cart and litter for the body. Stay until it comes, and in the meantime you may lay the corpse out before it stiffens.'
And so I left them, with a host of questions forming in my mind about how Dolores Brockletower had come upon her death. It did not look like an accident. But had it been by her own hand?

I've posted about this problem in the Plugin Forum
but perhaps this is more appropriate for the Installation forum.
Anyway, I carefully upgraded fr. 2.0 to 2.0.3. After activating my upgrade, I tried reactivating my plugins. Now, it seems every plugin I attempt to activate throws errors. The internal interface only works when all my plugins are deactivated. If I try to activate one, I get errors galore. Even with no plugins activated, my blog
displays an Ultimate Tag Warrior error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: utw_showtagsforcurrentpost() in /home/richard2/domains/richardsilverstein.com/public_html/tikun_olam/wp-content/themes/almost-spring/index.php on line 46
I even deleted UTW to see if that might clear things up. How can a plugin which is deleted still throw an error? But even when I still had UTW on my server it was throwing errors.
I believe I may've either accidentally not uploaded a necessary file; or perhaps I deleted a necessary file; or I overwrote a file I shouldn't have. I'd welcome any ideas on what I may've done wrong.

Life It's PETA Tuesday at KFC!
posted by October 24 at 13:15 PMon
I'm a vegetarian, but the words "PETA protest" make me cringe. Usually they are obnoxious and rather unproductive, doing more to perpetuate the "animal lovers = radical fringe" image than really convincing people Quarter Pounders are a problem.
Evidence A:
But the PETA protesters who've been hanging around outside the Capitol Hill KFC (10th and Pine, $3.99 Famous Bowls) every Tuesday are downright adorable. Politely passing out pamphlets are two delightful old ladies who bring along their beloved Japanese Spaniel and say "thank you" to every person who passes.
They also have endearing thick French accents. "We've been members for twenty years," one woman told me, "We know ze people want to eat ze chicken, we just want zem to do it somewhere else."
I'm not sure if they're going to show up today, what with the crummy weather, but try to stop by some week and give them a hug.

I'm seeing a problem with left or right aligned images in twenty fourteen that's dependent on the width of the browser window. When the browser window is narrow enough (<800px or so with my current settings), all images display in line with the content text as desired. But with a wider browser window, left or right aligned images move into the margins, and in some cases (especially with modified settings for content width etc) portions of images will flow off the browser window altogether where they're not even visible! I've tested this in Chrome and FireFox with the same result.
To see what I'm looking at, check the following page:
Also, I've uploaded screenshots of the problem exactly as I see it on my browser to the following path:
I suspect and desperately hope that there's some simple code I can include in my child style.css file or similar to fix this problem, and I sure hope someone here can help me with it because I'm stumped and Google has yielded no solution. Thanks for reading this far! :)

Harmony in Diversity: How to Move from Conflict to Compassion (1997)
His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama speaks passionately on harmony in diversity – moving from conflict to compassion – at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City. When His Holiness sees people from different backgrounds, whether culture, religion or belief, he doesn't see a difference. We are all one. As a species, our mental and emotional levels all are the same. In his experience everyone wants happiness and not suffering. Everyone has the right to overcome suffering. His Holiness believes our very being has the right to exist happily, and believes our very goal or purpose is happiness or satisfaction. Addressing the nature of conflict, he admits that due to impatience and shortsightedness sometimes people create big contradictions to gain immediate gratification and forget about long term interests. We need more education and sense of caring as well as compassion through mental training. With the millions of people on this planet, one religious tradition is not enough – a variety of religions is necessary to benefit the variety of peoples. Pointing to overcoming contradiction, he says that reconciling is where the importance of dialogue comes into play, rather than violence or suppression. The greatness of our species is our capacity to develop altruism. With a good brain and a good heart His Holiness believes together we can overcome all human problems.

VERGENNES — Drug problems continued to keep Vergennes police busy between Jan. 14 and 20. On Jan. 15, police were notified of an untimely death of a 41-year-old resident of Walker Avenue that they said could be drug-related.
Police said they received a call from the assistant medical examiner at Porter Hospital, where Vergennes Area Rescue Squad personnel had taken the woman, asking police to investigate her untimely death.
Police said an autopsy performed by the state's chief medical examiner would ultimately determine the cause of death.
MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury police cited Caleb Burkle, 30, of Salisbury for driving under the influence, third offense, following a stop on Court Street Extension on Jan. 19.
In other action last week, Middlebury police:
• Assisted an individual on Merchants Row who was receiving annoying phone solicitations on Jan. 14.
• Responded to a report of a drunken person in the Little Pond Road area on Jan. 14. The person was turned over to a sober friend, police said.
ADDISON COUNTY — Late on the evening of Tuesday, Jan. 15, Vermont State Police were called to a home on Ethan Allen Highway in New Haven for a report of an assault.
After investigating, troopers arrested Timothy J. Williams, 24, of New Haven and cited him for simple assault, second-degree aggravated domestic assault and unlawful restraint in the second degree against two individuals at the residence. Police lodged Williams at Chittenden County Correctional Center for lack of $1,000 bail.
LEICESTER — The newly published book "Eighteen Months To Live" is the poignant real life story of Midge Rylander in her own words.
Rylander moved to Vermont from California in 1963. The mother of three was employed for many years as a legal secretary and then worked for the trust department of a local bank. Rylander lived on Lake Dunmore from 1977 until she died in 1992.
She succumbed after being diagnosed with malignant pleural mesothelioma, which is a form of lung cancer from prior exposure to asbestos.

VERGENNES — Republican leaders in the Addison-3 House district on Thursday agreed to recommend two GOP nominees as candidates to serve out the two-year term of the late Rep. Greg Clark, R-Vergennes: Warren VanWyck of Ferrisburgh and Mary Ann Castimore of Waltham.
VERGENNES — The three Addison Northwest Supervisory Union elementary school boards recently adopted spending plans for the 2013-2014 academic year that in two cases would boost their budgets by close to 5 percent, and in the third case drop spending by almost 4 percent.
The proposed Vergennes Union Elementary School (VUES) budget is up by 4.7 percent, while the Ferrisburgh Central School (FCS) board is seeking approval on Town Meeting Day for a 4.88 percent increase.

[solved...sort of... works... far from perfect] How to properly control (arm+calibrate+command) an HK-20 ESC with arduino?
January 6, 2013
--- Solution ---
UPDATE: The below solution is NOT 100% reliable, sometimes I have to repeat the 90-10-20 process quite a few times up until I have a proper the ESC properly armed/calibrated. And when I say a few times I mean up to quite a few minutes with battery unplug/re-plug in-between. But now that the craft is mostly finished (I probably just need to tweak the aft side of the skirt), I'll revise my code yet again and see what I can do about it.
In the end the solution was a mix of the regular RC usage instructions:
"Full throttle (stick up); power up ESC & *beeps* ; Throttle 0% (stick down) *beeps* & it's ready to GO!"
& the interactive serial code... once I seen that inserting:
*beeps* 90 <enter> 10 <enter> 20 *beeps* <40 would start the motor at the minimum and progressively incremented it up to 90> ...
...I decided to implement this interation using remote buttons instead of the previously attempted loops...
1x Button for <10> (throttle 0%)
1x Button for <90> (throttle 100%)
and 2x button for increment/decrement by 10 units within that range.
At setup() I set lift fan velocity to 90 (max) and then I just went directly to 10 by pushing the respective button...
...and pushing the increment button after that... eventually led to me hearing the calibration/arming beep. I had however, to be persistant and try this procedure a few times, because either implementation isn't that good and/or I just had some timing issues in the first iterations.
--- Original post ---
I've been trying to control a brushless motor (EMAX CF2812) via ESC with arduino, but so far I've had limited sucess. I've managed to start the motor, but I can't seem to get reproducible results.
The first success I've got was by following the instructions here. From there I also got the following code:
/* * This code is in the public domain. * (Do whatever you want with it.) */ // Need the Servo library #include <Servo.h> // This is our motor. Servo myMotor; // This is the final output // written to the motor. String incomingString; // Set everything up void setup() { // Put the motor to Arduino pin #9 myMotor.attach(9); // Required for I/O from Serial monitor Serial.begin(9600); // Print a startup message Serial.println("initializing"); } void loop() { // If there is incoming value if(Serial.available() > 0) { // read the value char ch = Serial.read(); /* * If ch isn't a newline * (linefeed) character, * we will add the character * to the incomingString */ if (ch != 10){ // Print out the value received // so that we can see what is // happening Serial.print("I have received: "); Serial.print(ch, DEC); Serial.print('\n'); // Add the character to // the incomingString incomingString += ch; } // received a newline (linefeed) character // this means we are done making a string else { // print the incoming string Serial.println("I am printing the entire string"); Serial.println(incomingString); // Convert the string to an integer int val = incomingString.toInt(); // print the integer Serial.println("Printing the value: "); Serial.println(val); /* * We only want to write an integer between * 0 and 180 to the motor. */ if (val > -1 && val < 181) { // Print confirmation that the // value is between 0 and 180 Serial.println("Value is between 0 and 180"); // Write to Servo myMotor.write(val); } // The value is not between 0 and 180. // We do not want write this value to // the motor. else { Serial.println("Value is NOT between 0 and 180"); // IT'S a TRAP! Serial.println("Error with the input"); } // Reset the value of the incomingString incomingString = ""; } } }
It allows to interactively send signals (ints) to control the ESC. After a bit I've got some success by sending first a value of 10, followed by 55 (I believe I might have heard the arming beep then) and then I got the motor actually spinning with a value of 120. After a few more tests it seemed like that I would need a value equal or above 100 to make it spin. So, after analyzing the above code I've tried to write a stripped down code to programatically control the ESC, the code can be found below:
#include <Servo.h> Servo esc; void setup() { delay(1000); esc.attach(9); // attaches the servo on pin 9 to the servo object //delay(1000); Serial.begin(9600); esc.write(10); delay(1000); //esc.write(90); } void loop() { esc.write(100); //delay(3500); //esc.write(0); //delay(10000); }
At first, with this code or small variations I got success in making the motor run, alas today when I've tried again (with variations) no such luck. When back to the interactive code and managed to make the motor work with a sequence of inputs: 10, 90, 100, 0. However, after stopping the motor (sending zero) I was unable to start it again even with sending values above 100 without resetting the arduino...
So, does anyone can shed some light on what is happening here? How can I "tame" this beguilling ESC? :/
Further info:
Regarding ESC documentation the beep list found here seems to be the best that can be found.
Also rumaged the web for answers, but couldn't find anything that I could either wrap my head around or very enlightening :s
sigh, double post, carry on.......
Mostly just a guess, but
Looking at the info on the ESC, I think this code should work to calibrate the ESC and "work"
the throttle. You should just have to adjust the delay before the second esc.write to get the
timing right in between the single beeps. I'm sure someone will chime in with the magic answer,
but this might be worth a shot.
#include <Servo.h> Servo esc; void setup() { esc.attach(9); // attaches the ESC on pin 9 to the servo object delay(1000); Serial.begin(9600); esc.write(180); // set "TX" to full speed delay(1000); // Change this to delay until you hear the ESC beep once
esc.write(90); // set "TX" to idle after Li-Po (first beep) is selected from set-up sequence } void loop() {
for(i=90; i<180; i++){ // Ramp throttle up
for(i=180; i>90; i--){ // Ramp throttle down
Additional info
Good stuff.
Arming sequence: When the arduino is in the setup function "setup(){}", I have had a lot of luck with stepping from 0 to 55 in steps of 5.
After arming use: Writing anything greater than 65 would get the motors turning.
Getting the motors to stop: If the motors were spinning and I wanted to stop them, I wrote 60. Here's the tricky part, if I wrote the value "0" to the motors, I would get unpredictable behaviour and the motors would fail to respond anymore until I disconnect/reconnect power.
For reference on the code used to arm (I used two (2) motor/esc's):
More additional info
Used two motor/esc's, radioshack enclosure, two arms from the "diy drones" kit, arduino duemilanove.
Used bluetooth and later used longer range xbee's.
When using the longer range xbee's were, there were two problems that had to be solved.
A latency problem when sending data from usb to arduino via xbee that had to be solved: http://ilektron-x.blogspot.com/2010/02/xbee-and-ftdi-latency-and-dropped.html
Many times, the data sent over the air would be changed after receiving it. This was the reason for all the logic involed in the techvalleyprojects link. It is checking the data received character by character. If I wasn't concerned about the garbage problem, probably just would have used a delimitted message. Good luck.
code snippet
for(int I = 0;I <= 55; I++){
Arming ESC's
late reply
"the thing is... I actually don't see the purpose of having that on setup()... wouldn't it be ran just once?"
True and yes. You only need to run the arming procedure once. So running the arming procedure in setup would be a perfect place to arm the esc's.
"The problem I seem to see here is "how to programatically find the right window of oportunity to arm the ESC". :s"
In using regular RC equipment, I'm fairly sure that you can arm the ESC anytime after the ESC's have power. I had the esc's/motors power up first and then powered up the arduino. As for the "for" loop, below is an example of an arming sequence. It is only run once in setup().
* use however / for whatever
#include "Servo.h"
// This is a motor on pin 9
#define MOTOR_PIN 9
// This is the speed that will start the motor
#define MOTOR_START_SPEED 60
// This is the motor object
Servo motor;
// 9600 default for most people
// setup the motor
// The motor object is set to pin 9
// This is the arming sequece (for loop)
motorStartAt(MOTOR_START_SPEED); // Arming procedure
// Now that the motor has armed, write the values to the motor
// Wrapper function for Servo's ".write(*speed*)" function
void motorSetSpeed(int speed)
motor_current_speed = speed;
//Serial.print("current motor speed = ");
// This is the arming sequence
// If the "start_speed" is 60 then the loop will write
// from 0 to 60 in increments of 5 (e.g. 0,5,10,15,20)
// In the setup() we are using this function and pass in the variable
// "MOTOR_START_SPEED" which is set to 60 at the start of the program
void motorStartAt(int start_speed)
int i;
for (i=0; i < start_speed; i+=5) {

Which is the first Unix version or Linux version which implemented threads. And in which version bound and unbound threads were implemented? I know that in current Linux version threads are unbound by default. But is there any version of Unix or Linux in which threads are bound by default instead of unbound. If some one can give a link to a complete change-log of Unix versions that would also be helpful.

This question came from our site for professional and enthusiast programmers.
Linux kernel 2.0 had LinuxThreads. I think this was new to 2.0 and not present in the previous 1.3 kernel.
Solaris 2.2 (released May 1993) is apparently the first, per wikipedia.

Mike Cooper
Scotch Tape and Popsicle Sticks
Mike Cooper has roughly a decade of experience in imaginary journalism, depending on where you set the bar. He founded the Unofficial New Jedi Order Homepage in 1999 (just shy of his seventeenth birthday), which he ran until 2002, when he and the site were brought under the wing of TheForce.net's Books and Comics departments. He continued at TFN until 2007, doing regular news posting and book reviews as well as founding the EU Roundtable feature in 2004. After 2007 he remained something of an armchair journalist, producing the occasional interview or research paper whenever something has caught his interest, and he is excited to bring these varied pursuits back under one roof.
When not trawling Google Images for screencaps and book covers, Mike is a part-time videographer and facilities manager for the Space Upstairs, a performance venue in Pittsburgh, PA, and a full-time facilities manager (totally different kinda thing) for a small Pittsburgh law firm. He also maintains a (mostly defunct) political blog entitled Why I Enjoy Paying Taxes.
Rocky Blonshine
Rocky has been a Star Wars fan ever since she first heard of Darth Vader in first grade. Then she found the Jedi Academy trilogy on a teacher's bookshelf, and fell head over heels into the EU. Ever since, she has been buried under a pile of Star Wars books, and has been known on TheForce.Net as SithGirl132. In her spare time, she absorbs obscure details about the lore of real and fictional worlds, plays World of Warcraft, and sells cars.
Ben Crofts
Ben Crofts is a philosophy and politics graduate who has been working in business support for regional government in London for over a decade. With wide-ranging interests in fantasy and SF and philosophy, politics and history, his interest in Star Wars is invariably filtered through a wide angle lens that factors these aspects in too. He is a regular contributor to the TheForce.net Jedi Council forums as Jedi Ben and at Millarworld as Ben the Obiwomble, although sometimes active at the latter in the persona of the Dealer, running Dealer Incorporated. Despite being a highly experienced administrator, he doesn't own any capes and is happily married.
Sarah Dempster
Sarah Dempster has been a fan of Star Wars since preschool and spent many a day on the playground pretending to be Luke Skywalker. She has a lengthy opinion on nearly anything tangentially related to a galaxy far far away and will explain them at length if given half an opportunity. As a longtime participator in online fandom she is most interested in how media relates to and parallels real world events, as well as issues of representation. She is most interested in history, politics, the arts, and social activism and so tends to filter her love of Star Wars through those lenses. In her spare time she enjoys dressing up as fictional characters, indulging in her inner obsessive collector, and pretending to conduct the Star Wars score in her car. Though she was a movie-only fan for most of her fandom life, in the past few years she has begun wholeheartedly embracing the SWEU, from books to TV shows to video games.
Alexander Gaultier
More commonly known as The Loyal Imperial on TheForce.net's Jedi Council Forums, Alexander Gaultier is Eleven-ThirtyEight's token Canadian and role-playing game enthusiast. A Star Wars fan for close to fifteen years, he embraces and elevates the concept of Star Wars above its execution and is greatly fascinated by all things related to the development and expansion of a galaxy far, far away. He prefers his fiction to embrace science over fantasy and possesses a boundless interest in all things pertaining to history, particularly its past and potential future influence on the background of a certain fictional universe.
David Schwarz
David Schwarz, known as JoinTheSchwarz on the Jedi Council Forums, is a Spanish journalist currently living in the United States and totes loving it. He earns money thanks to his questionable literary abilities and his slightly less questionable ability to teach stuff to little humans. He came to love Star Wars thanks to the old roleplaying game and videogames and has had a (widely documented) love and hate relationship with the Expanded Universe for years. He's also an avid roleplayer, having been a Game Master without pause for the last twenty years, and has multiple strange hobbies to help with his chronic procrastination issues. He's also an indefatigably optimistic person, having less and less use for cynicism the older he gets. Some people are just weird…
Ben Wahrman
Ben Wahrman, known as Cynical_Ben on the JC forums, is a geek for Star Wars, history and literature. A Star Wars fan since the days when the OT was only out on VHS tapes, Ben was drawn into the EU in the Bantam days and (almost) never looked back. The only thing he enjoys as much as watching movies or reading is writing, a mindset that bleeds into his criticism of most media. Ben has his own (sporadically updated) blog called Gears, Nails and Chewing Gum and dreams of being a professional writer, editor or critic some day.
Lisa Schap
Lisa Schap has been a Star Wars fan ever since seeing the movies at a friend's house when she was young. Her love of reading led her to discover the X-wing series when making the transition from child to adult books and she never looked back. In 2006 she discovered other fans of the Expanded Universe on TheForce.net as s65horsey. She moderated several parts of the forum over the course of a few years before retiring. Lisa, having taught Agriculture Economics at a junior college for a few years, is currently a nanny for her niece and nephew and steadily doing her part to create future Star Wars fans. She looks forward to having more intellectual conversations about Star Wars than those occurring with her nephew about "monster Yoda".
Jay Shah
Jay Shah, who serves as ETE's young adult and middle grade book correspondent, has been a Star Wars fan since he was very young. For many of his friends, he is the person that comes to mind whenever a new Star Wars news item is reported and he is the person they ask for commentary. His online presence centers around the Jedi Council Forums of TheForce.net, where he has been registered since 2000 and is the most prolific poster on that board. Known by the moniker GrandAdmiralJello, he combines an appreciation for history, art, politics, and culture with an almost unswerving dedication to the Galactic Emperor that often confuses many people. He is quite happy to provide grandiose propaganda that nobody should quite take seriously, not just because it's fun but because it serves as a reminder that in fiction, as in real life, history is not a precise science and sifting bias and opinion from fact is a valuable skill. In addition to writing book analyses, he enjoys writing about history, politics, worldbuilding, and characterization. He writes his ETE articles in the royal plural for some reason, but will lapse out of it into regular first person to emphasize when something is personally important.
