"Ricky Garcia is one of the real young guns of the guitar world. I have been following him since he was a student at the Berklee school of music. During those years he managed to keep me interested (not easy to do) and very up to date with his quickly advancing musical skills. I knew a long time ago that one day he would be making an appearance on one of my albums, and actually he appeared on my last solo album "The Road Home." Recently it was my turn (and pleasure) to return the favor and play on his new solo album, "Let Sleeping Dogs Lie." I joined him for some burning trades and a JR solo on the song Tank. You gotta check Ricky out. He totally rocks!!! Jordan Rudess (Dream Theater)."

I have decided to take part in Pip's new meme "My Place and Yours" because it looks like fun. This first week the theme is "on the shelf", so here's my "bookshelf":
I don't have many books here with me in Melbourne, most of my books still live on a bookshelf parent's house. With the exception of my textbooks I only brought a few books here with me (my dictionaries and one other) and the rest that I have now I've accumulated between then and now. Sadly it's not even as many books as it looks like as I have somehow amassed four copies of "Unpolished Gem" by Alice Pung a dear friend of mine; if you haven't read it you should, it's a really lovely book with just enough deviation from the main story with short yet hilariously funny anecdotes.
Sadly, however, my room, cosy as it is, has no book shelf, so my books have found a home on the top of my wardrobe accompanied by my novelty sized inhaler (that I kept because I love that it's the same inhaler that I use and my Winnie the Pooh and Graduation bears.

'Unpolished Gem' hey? I think I want to read that – that's the second Alice Pung reference I've read this week, it must be a sign! Thank you for showing us your weighty shelf, Miss! xx↓
A shelf that isn't a shelf seems always to be the best sort of shelf!↓
Books are so important aren't they? You can never have enough. I have read Unpolished Gem, it's a great read. xo↓
Oh was the Amy Tan one good? I've picked that up a few times at the bookshop.↓

The Jacksonville Museum Of Modern Art, Inc.
Rating: 0 stars 0 0 review 50
333 N Laura St Jacksonville FL 03220 USA
The Jacksonville Museum of Modern Art has created a a new museum in downtown Jacksonville that reflects the diversity, dynamic growth, economic development and richness of life in Northeast Florida. The Museum's mission continues to give prominence to educational programs for all age groups, with the objective of enhancing our understanding and appreciation of the contemporary world by exploring the art of our time. The Museum is expanding its collections and continues to host exhibits of the finest examples of modern art, celebrating regional, as well as national and international, artistic achievement. Special emphasis is be placed on reaching out to young people from underserved neighborhoods. History: The Museum began in 1924 as the Jacksonville Fine Arts Society, the city's first organization devoted to the visual arts. In 1936, it collaborated with the WPA Federal Art project to form the Civic Art Institute, an experimental art gallery. Following the close of the WPA project, the Fleming residence on Riverside Avenue, was acquired in 1947 to be used for exhibition, office and classroom space. It was incorporated as the Jacksonville Art Museum in 1948. In 1999 the Museum acquired the historic Western Union Telegraph building in downtown Jacksonville for use as its new facility. Once renovated the Museum will house its permanent collection, traveling exhibitions, classrooms for art education, a museum store, and a cafe. A capital campaign to fund the renovations as well as to supplement the Museum's endowment will begin in fall of 2001. In the interim, the Museum has organized its permanent collections into a series of exhibitions that will tour regional colleges, universities, and art centers through the year 2000. Important works from the Museum's collection are also on exhibition at the Times-Union Center for the Performing Arts. Through its educational outreach program, City Kids in the Classroom, the Museum offers art-based literacy classes in underserved schools within the "Mayor's Intensive Care Neighborhoods."

Meconium is a thick, greenish black substance that forms in the intestines of an unborn child (fetus). As the fetus swallows and digests the fluid (amniotic fluid) inside the womb, it produces meconium.
Meconium in the amniotic fluid may be a sign that the newborn experienced stress before birth. If meconium gets into the baby's lungs, it can cause irritation and inflammation of the lungs.
When the baby is born, meconium is the first stool the baby passes. Most newborns pass the meconium within 48 hours after birth.
If your baby doesn't pass his or her first stool within the usual time frame, it may be a sign of a blocked intestine or another problem. Your baby may need treatment to remove the stool from the body.

Patient Comments: Rotavirus - Describe Your Experience
Please describe your experience with rotavirus.
Comment from: 3-6 Female (Caregiver) Published: April 15
My 3-year-old had rotavirus. She was in the hospital for four days on IV fluids. She was very sick. Her temperature went up to 105.2. She couldn't keep down anything. She slept all day until the nurse would come in, and even then sometimes she wouldn't wake up.
Comment from: Niehle, 0-2 Female (Caregiver) Published: October 30
My little one year old is going through rotavirus right now. It came on while she was also battling strep throat so we weren't sure what were symptoms of strep and what was not, until one nasty diaper that caused her bottom and genitalia to become cardinal red and blister in one hour. I did notice white, tiny round things in her stool and I guess that's the "wheel" they were referring to in the article. We are on our third day and she is doing much better. Some helpful hints: Lotrimin cream on any red, bumpy areas (can be yeast) and Milk of Magnesia lightly tapped onto the red area. Lastly, a bath with baking soda really helps take the burn (acid) out of the skin. Hope this helps someone who, like me, had no idea what to do.

My son had rotavirus when he was one...no one knew and it came and left several times before a nurse could tell me what it was. She knew by the smell of his diaper. We had to feed him liquid every 30 minutes and just hold him and clean up the mess he was making. He lost a lot of weight. He now has it again, at age 2. I know this because he has the same RING around his swollen belly button. I cannot find anyone talking about this ring around the belly button. It itches, but it was a sign early on so we have been hydrating him with the vitamin water for toddlers and letting him go hog wild with bowls of chicken noodle soup. Personally, I crush up vitamin C and put in his soup. It has been 2 days and he is looking fine, still sleeping a lot but, hydrated and happy.
Comment from: Jokes, 35-44 Male (Patient) Published: March 13
I lost my son a year ago to rotavirus. There is very little awareness about this virus. Many doctors in Nigeria know little about it and this leads to the death of many children from this virus. If parents are properly educated about this virus, deaths will be prevented.
Comment from: 0-2 Male (Caregiver) Published: February 05
My one year old son is now just recovering from this horrible virus. He got it 4 days ago, and we have gone to the ER twice and his doctor twice! Nobody could tell me what it was they just said it was the stomach flu, well I just found out from his baby sitter that 5 of the kids that she watches were in the hospital because they all had Rotavirus, and it all started the same day as my son's case.
Comment from: 1mommy, 0-2 Female (Caregiver) Published: February 05
My daughter was extremely sick at nine and a half months old with Rotavirus. She got all three vaccines and still got it. It lasted 2 weeks and was terrifying as a parent to have to watch. Everyone in our household all got sick as well but ours only lasted for 24-48 hours. I quickly sterilized every inch of my entire house with baby safe products. She was hospitalized, but they sent her home still throwing up and with diarrhea because there isn't much they can do other than keeping her hydrated.
Comment from: semisebast, 25-34 Female (Caregiver) Published: February 05
My 4 year-old son currently, has the Rotavirus he began with symptoms saturday night with loose stools and on the 3rd day vomiting everything he would drink this is now Thursday and he still has loose stools and goes twice a day he has been eating, but he complains of stomach pain. I have been giving him Gatorade and Imodium Ad but I don't think the Imodium helped although he still has diarrhea I am sending him to school since I missed 3 days from work and he from school apparently, he is going to have this for the full 10 days hopefully, not.
Comment from: Sarah, 0-2 Female (Patient) Published: February 05
My daughter got the rotavirus vaccine at 2 months, but she ended up getting all the symptoms pretty bad within that week. After that the docs said to forgo the rest of the vaccines for it. She is now 2 and has had it about 4 times. It has such a distinct odor that you can tell what it is right away. Luckily with plenty of rest and fluids (and a whole lot of diapers, wipies and diaper rash ointment for all that wiping) she always feel better in less than a week.

The ever-popular autonomous, self-charging, vacuum robot. Inspired by the old OMNI magazines photovore, of all things. The initial plan was humble and completely over-zealous using a BEAM inspired solar setup. It's evolved into a PICAXE driven battery powered robot to overcome my knowledge deficit of BEAM technique and solar power.
Crappy vid but you get the idea -->
My humble PICAXE
Project plan:
- Design and test locomotion.
- Source low-voltage but effective vacuum unit.
- Develop and test charging circuit.
- Fabricate prototype robot base to test system interfunctionallity.
- Test IR communications protocol for charging station homing signal.
- Fabricate charging station.
- Design and test RTC circuitry for feasibility on an unregulated power source.
- Iron out the myriad of creases.
- Celebrate my first MCU success!
Project blog here
- PICAXE 28X2 for robot brain
- PICAXE 08M for charger brain
- L293D motor driver
- GM17 228:1 motors
- cheap Ebay servos
- Old design short-range analog Sharp IR sensor (GP2D120?)
- MAXIM 712 NiMH charger chip
- 4xAA batteries + plastic holder x 2
- eBay novelty vacuum
- Power Dash slot car motor Upgraded Mabuchi motor
- 12V 1A 5A DC wall wart
- Design and test locomotion.
Let me say upfront that I don't have that many pics of this project. I intend on keeping a better photolog as the project continues.
The locomotion testing was done on an alpha test base with just the GM17s, the PICAXE 28X2 breadboard, and the Sharp IR sensor with servo riding on the back. It uses coding very similar to the first robot design ala Frits (thanks Frits!).
Prototype base with motors (left) and alpha base (right):
You can see I whittled out some holes in the foamcore I used for the alpha base to accomodate the bristles on the vacuum I ended up choosing. The prototype base has part of the debris box/nozzle apparatus assembled.
2. Source low-voltage but effective vacuum unit.
The first plan was to have a USB vacuum running off a regulated 5V from a common 7.2V battery pack with the 5V PICAXE running off its own regulated line. My first choice was this classic piece off the internet:
Per all the reviews it doesn't offer much suction. I only gave the chinese 3USD for it so I don't feel so bad. It's selling point was that it had the perfect upright design that used very little space in the robot.
I decided to look into the 2 x AA battery powered vacuums out there. I ended up buying one of these:
Surprisingly it works pretty well (at 3V). Even though it's driven by two AA's it has an impeller about twice the diameter of the USB vacuum I originally purchased. Despite the increased vacuum it still didn't quite cut it. I noticed it has the same motor can as the first vacuum I chose (Mabuchi 130 type) so I upped the voltage on the Magic Bug to 5V and it was pulling a vacuum the way I wanted. I proceeded to make the alpha base to test things and it worked ok. I was letting the bot motor around sucking up hair and crumbs to measure run time when the motor started smoking. I guess the increased voltage was too much.
A was getting a little miffed at how the vacuum I wanted needed voltage that killed the motors I was using. Looking at specs for the 130 motor I stumbled onto a Chinese trend. Apparently slot cars have made a comeback over there and a popular scale uses 130-sized high RPM motors running at 2.4V. I was regulating voltage to the vacuum through a LM2576 that maxes out at 3A so I bought a Power Dash motor that uses current somewhere south of 2.5 amps I think it was. Swapping it into the vacuum I found the impeller causes more drag than the slot car it was rated for and it drew more current than the regulator could handle.
3. Develop and test charging circuit.
From the onset of this project the charger was to be onboard the robot and the charging station itself was only to supply the DC power. The activation of the charging electrodes would be handled by a PICAXE 08M monitoring reflectivity sensors on the station. The 08M would also send commands to the robot via IR. However at this point two things were causing me problems: 1) The noise from the vacuum was giving the Sharp IR distance sensor and its servo fits and 2) When hooked up straight to two 2300mAh NiMH batteries the vacuum pulled even harder than off the 2576 (batteries got very hot though). I could never solve the noise feeding back to the PICAXE so I changed the setup to use two battery packs; one for the vaccum (2xAA) and one for the PICAXE (4xAA). Plans are to use the ADC capabilities of the PICAXE to monitor its own voltage and a MAX8212 to send an interrupt to the MCU when the vacuum battery pack get low. A downgrade in motors is also probably necessary to prevent overheating the vacuum's battery pack.
This complicates the charging scenario more than I anticipated. Now the plan is to swtich between two charger circuits on the station, one for each battery pack, and a latching relay onboard the robot to dictate which battery pack gets the incoming charge current.
4. Fabricate prototype robot base to test system interfunctionallity.
As one can see in the very first picture with the two robot bases, the design changed somewhat. The alpha design was for ease of vacuum testing but was not feasible for the prototype. The robot is intended to stay under 6" x 6". As it stands it will measure just a hair over 5" sq. With the vaccum flat it was hard to easily remove the vacuum to empty out the debris with the batteries and/or circuit board likely to be above the vacuum itself. Plus the collection area for the debris is not that big.
I decided to turn the vacuum on its end and have it draw air through a nozzle into an intermediary debris chamber that would be emptied by opening a door on the front of the robot, eliminating the otherwise necessary disassembly/reassembly process.
Pics of partially assembled vaccum stack:
The extra pieces are mostly to box off the vacuum exhaust, which will be directed out the top of the bot This will eliminate the exhaust blowing out the bottom of the robot, pushing the dust away as it approaches. The vacuum stack design is hard to describe. On the bottom of the vacuum (around the inlet) there will be a magnetic seal that will attach the vacuum to the debris box.
The nozzle is formed from a block of Delrin nylon (actually two sheets glued together) contoured to be able to glide over the uneven surfaces it will encounter. I used a rotary tool to get the basic shape seen in the above pics. I still have a little work to do. The "hose" between the debris box and nozzle will be a piece of collapsable foam that has a sealed inner lining. The foams job will be two-fold. One, to provide a sealed, unobstructed airway. Two, to extend and collapse as the nozzle follows surface imperfections. On level ground it will be slightly compressed allowing for 1/4" extenstion into depressions it drives over.
My first test was with some random open cell foam (as seem above) used to pack test tubes used at my work. I used an old soldering iron to melt out a hole to match the box's base plate and the nozzles opening. Initial impressions were that it was harder to compress that I thought it would be so I burnt out the excess materials from the corners. I then sealed the inner surface with silicone caulking. It took more silicone than I thought it would and it stiffened the foam to the point where the bot couldn't compress it down enough to make contact with the ground. I'm looking for less dense foam and plan to seal the inside with a tube of plastic wrap (eg, Saran Wrap).
5. Test IR communications protocol for charging station homing signal.
Successfully programmed and designed the IR beacon seeking parts. The charging station will have a cluster of IR LEDs intermittently putting out a signal. Ordinarily it is ignored by the robot until either battery pack goes low. The robot will then start looking for the IR signal through the transceiver mounted on the head. When the transceiver finds the IR signal the robot will begin a sequence to center in on the signal and head towards it.
The charging electrodes on the robot will be a metal ball caster for the ground contact and a spring-loaded pickup on the top of the robot for the positive. The charging station will be a negative metal sheet on the ground and a postive metal sheet overhang (oversimplified description). There will be reflectivity sensors on the ground sheet that will detect when the robot has moved onto the charger. When the sensors are activated, the PICAXE 08M will change IR codes to one that signals the robot to stop and continue monitoring the IR signal. The charge sequence will then begin. The robot will be activated via IR when the 08M receives an interrupt from the MAX712 charger that signals the charge is complete. The robot will then begin its "back out" sequence and then resume cleaning. But only while I'm at work. All will be controlled by an RTC like the DS1337 (if I can get over the inaccuracy from my noisy supply lines).
The popular 3V "mushroom" vacuum did prove to be underpowed so I swapped in another Mabuchi motor rated for more voltage and higher load. At stall it consumes 1.9A. No load (other than the vacuum impeller) and it consumes ~1A. My 2450mA batteries are much more happy with the situation.
I have also fashioned a different chassis, doing away with the square prototype version I was working with. The reason for the change is two-fold: One, I just didn't like the whole look of a box puttering around my place, and two, I was getting tired of working out how to get the bot to maneuver away from things it ran into. It was always catching its corners on other obstacles when backing up and it was giving me fits.
The new design:
The internals minus the battery packs (they will be on the sides next to the vacuum:
I used magnets to make an easy connection for the vacuum (the black is electrical tape to hold things down):
Insides, sans vacuum:
Pics with the outer shell removed to show the debris collection compartment:
Shell with the access panel to the debris compartment removed. I will secure it with magnets ala the vacuum connection:
Close up of the comparment. I grabbed some filter foam for freezer compressors from work (the black sparkly material) to catch the majority of the macro sized bits:
Pics with the foam peeled back (yes, it's two layers):
Shot of the underside of the beast:
I put the overly-complex vacuum nozzle to rest and went completely in the opposite direction. It's now as simple as possible by using one of the accessory brushes that came with one of the mini-vacs I've ordered. It's oversized considering the opening to the vacuum itself is much smaller but I've still yet to see the consequenses from going too big (read, hasn't been tested yet).
I'm currently working the bump sensors for the front:
They are two ultra-low force momentary tactile switches that will be supported with some silicone beads in key places between the bumper and bot body. There will be one for the left and for the right. These triggers should allow the bot to get as close to obstacles as possible to cover the most ground area.
I'm also working on the circuitry for the vacuum. It will be on its own 4AA NiMH pack with an ultra-LDO regulator keeping things at 4.5V (this eliminates the previous designs that used two MAX712s to charge a 2AA and a 4AA pack separately). All the bits are in my possession. Now I just need time and gumption to get this thing sucking!
Wow, I like it! I tried
Wow, I like it! I tried making something like this once upon a time but I never really did much with it. It would sweep floors, not vacuum but the concept is the same; make something to clean floors so you don't have to :). About your motors. Have you tried using PWM to control the motors speed a bit so that your battery packs don't heat up so much? Not sure if that'd work but its worth a try.
Also, about a RTC. I have two ideas that might help. You could use the AC voltage coming from a mains line to keep time as it is usually accurate to a couple seconds at its worst and super accurate over a long period of time [LINK]. Or, you could use a cheap watch crystal to keep the time, accurate within a couple seconds a week [LINK].
Yes it is, although we could
Yes it is, although we could probably get the chores done quicker if we just did them ourselves :).
The PWM might slow the motor down a bit but you could play with frequency and duty cycle values to see if there is any "magical" combination. And, about not having enough pins. Have you thought of using a shift register? It uses a couple pins (I think it's three) but gives you eight in return. And, you can "stack" these, meaning that the same three pins can control several shift registers. I like the 74HC595 shift register as it is one of the most widely documented but there are many to choose from. Picaxe code here [LINK] and a (gasp!) Arduino setup here [LINK] that might help as well.
Add four shift registers [LINK] and one display like this [LINK] and you have your display! I hope I'm not showing you something you've already considered and I hope this helps!
Welll..... more chips!
Well, that's another thing I forgot to mention. There are multiplexers for I2C as well! The one I''ve used is the PCF8574. It gives you eight pins, all for the price of the two I2C Picaxe pins which, by the sound of it, your using already! And the upside to I2C is that you can have many sensors, RTCs ect, on two pins (as you probably already know). The downside to the PCF8574 is that it is only digital (no analog pins, check out the PCF8591) and it can't source more than 300 uA per pin, although it can sink up to 25mA per pin, meaning that if you write 0 to a pin (Picaxe speak: 'low x', x being the pin) the LED will turn on, writing 1 to it will turn it off. Sorta counter intuitive but it works. They're cheap and useful, and maybe the might be of more help than a 74HC595 (although, they only work on I2C enabled Picaxes).
I'm sure someone else here can tell you about a better I2C multiplexer, that's the only one I've used :). Hope this helps! And, I'm sure you'll learn lots more about electronics here on LMR. I didn't know anode from cathode two years ago so don't sweat it!
Making your own robot vacuum
Making your own robot vacuum cleaner is such a cool idea. I really ask myself why I never thought of it. Why did nobody I know?
It's brilliant!
Cleaning robots are awesome
Cleaning robots are awesome. I have been planning to build an autonomous vacuum cleaner for about a year. I was always interested in robotics but I couldn't justify the high cost of tools and components to my "significant other" until I came up with the idea of building something to help with cleaning. I bought some parts and tried out some configurations using car vacuums and mattress pumps , but the vacuum was too low, the power requirements too high and my cats were really terrified of the screaming contraptions. Getting rid of the cats defeats the purpose of the automatic cleaner, since the main reason I wanted one was to clean up all the cat hair. While experimenting I got sidetracked and started building a robot for the Eurobot competition. I couldn't finish it in time, but at least I have gathered a considerable collection of tools and parts. However, I haven't given up on the cleaning robot, only instead of vacuum, it will use brushes.
Ah, the quest for a
Ah, the quest for a vacuuming robot!. The reality seems to be that some hefty voltage is needed to power the hungry suction fans - or use a little fan, and have low -efficiency robot.. a la my dinky creation:vacuumbug or vacboks .
I'm keen to get an update on the effectiveness of your fan, since it's something that is bugging me too. Also - the shape might be important - I'm trying to make a square robot to get into the corners; I never understood why the roomba is round....

Selma Blair in Siwy Camilla Cut Off Shorts in Savage Love
Snapped while out running errands with her son, Selma Blair wore a pair of Siwy Camilla cut off shorts in Savage Love with a printed blouse and a pair of black Birkenstocks.
Selma really loves the Camilla fit from Siwy when it comes to shorts, we see her almost exclusively in this style. I do like how this has a lighter, more subtle acid look wash, that is a more modern take on the trend and doesn't look dated. You can buy Siwy online from Shopbop.com.
Selma Blair in Siwy Kendra Boyfried Jeans in Tidal Wave
Selma Blair was seen taking her son Arthur out on some errands in Los Angeles, California a couple of weeks ago. He didn't look too happy though!
Selma wore a pair of Siwy Kendra Boyfriend jeans in Tidal Wave with red flats and a red striped top. I like how she layered it over a white tee as the combination of red, blue and white is always really fun! Buy these jeans online at Siwy Denim.

Barker's long-term recovery programme has already ruled him out for the entire forthcoming campaign, but being given the all-clear to walk without crutches and the green light to drive again has handed the 29-year-old a boost.
"I'm off my crutches now but I'm still moving around quite slowly," he told the club's official website. "I've got independence back now after a few months and although my progress is slow, it's going well.
"I can drive again now and little steps along the way like that give me a massive boost because I don't think people realise how tough it is being on crutches for three months."
He continued: "I understand it's going to be a slow process because my knee has basically been rebuilt due to how much damage there was in there. When I can get down to the serious hard work, that's when I'll enjoy myself again and get back to putting a real shift in because right now I can't do too much."

I needed a swimsuit for this Saturday. Was looking for a swim dress, something with a little skirt. All the shops though are putting away their summer stuff! So I've not been able to find something I would have felt comfortable with!
Then help came from the one person that I was least expecting it! My Mum!! Yeah, that's right!! The very lady who has always expressed great concern over all of my trans stuff* said she'd get me one from her mail order catalogue!!
Yeah, I was a little shocked!! I think this is a good sign! It could be acceptance or just understanding! Either way it's good news.
*Trans stuff, yuck! Wish I could have found a better phrase than that!!

Cal Crutchlow was relieved to end a run of bad results with third place in MotoGP's Australian Grand Prix.
Since taking his elusive maiden podium at Brno at the end of August, Crutchlow has endured a run of frustrations punctuated only by fourth at Aragon.
He crashed out early at Misano, ran out of fuel when on course for the podium at Motegi, then crashed again in the wet at Sepang.
But at Phillip Island he was able to pull clear of Tech 3 Yamaha team-mate Andrea Dovizioso's big battle with Stefan Bradl and Alvaro Bautista, then settle into a comfortable third behind Casey Stoner and Jorge Lorenzo.
"It's nice to finally these last three weeks with something decent," said Crutchlow.
"Running out of fuel at Motegi and crashing at Sepang wasn't the best, so it would've been a difficult three weeks if we hadn't have done well here.
"So I wanted to make it count and I think it was a good job all round.
"I just maintained the gap to the guys behind, and made sure it went up.
"I wasn't going to push to follow Jorge because I think I would've been sacked if anything happened..."
The result means Crutchlow still has an outside chance of getting into the top five in the championship.
He goes into next month's Valencia finale 14 points behind current fifth-place man Bautista, and six down on Valentino Rossi.

It's Class 4 Memory Card.FK is getting amazingly better! This product was delivered in exactly 48 hours to Shimla (my earlier orders took a bit longer). Anywez, this product is a class 4 memory card i.e. having a transfer rate of 4 MB per second. The printed MRP is Rs. 699 though in market it costs around Rs. 400, but FK made it best buy for me.

Good ServiceI ordered it on 13th July morning and got the same on very next day(14) noon in KOLKATA through bluedart courier. The market price is around 350 here. Very good service by flipkart....I will buy more product from flipkart...

Ya! and good service Flipkart!Ya there is a "5 year limited warranty" whatever that means(it's written on the back of the product packaging).Well it's just a micro sd card so I won't be telling anything about the product itself but flipkart did an amazing job! Market price in Kolkata is around 450 but it's so cheap here. Also it says 5-7 days as shipping time but i got it in 3 days :)

An ideal memory card for an average userThe MRP of the memory card is about 500 Rupees. But, you can get it for 230Rupees here, from flipkart.com. Many buyers get confused about 'MicroSD HC'. There's no difference between MicroSD and MicroSDHD whatsoever. Every memory card with a capacity of 2GB higher, is called as MicroSDHC. The HC stands for, Higher Capacity

Review of SanDisk Memory Card MicroSDHC 4GBI have received it 3 days after I order it. It came in a good working condition. It got 3-5 years of warranty. But I think very few people actually care about the warranty of a memory card.

Budget Memory CardNice Memory Card at low cost. Anyone looking for a 4GB Micro SD card should go for it. Its data transfer rate is a bit low, which is around 4 to 4.5 Mbps. And after all good shopping experience on flipkart !!

HOUSTON (AP) - Former Houston Oilers quarterback Gifford Nielsen is resigning after almost 25 years as sports director and anchor at Houston television station KHOU.
The 54-year-old sportscaster announced his plans Monday and said his appearances on Tuesday's 6 p.m. and 10 p.m. will be his last.
The move comes after the Belo Corp.-owned station laid off its two sports producers. Nielsen says he plans to spend more time with his outside business interests, his annual charity golf tournament. He's also president of a regional group of congregations in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Nielsen was the Oilers' backup quarterback for six years after he was taken from Brigham Young in the third round of the 1978 NFL Draft.

Miami's iconic InterContinental Hotel, with its dramatic tower and 70-ton Henry Moore sculpture, finally has a restaurant worthy of its surroundings. Toro Toro by restau-preneur Richard Sandoval, whose portfolio spans the globe from Dubai to D.C., is a natural for Miami. It's a place for visitors seeking authentic flavors without a trek to Little Havana for rice and beans or a Brazilian steak joint for churrasco. You can find all those things and much more here on a menu meant for sharing and exploring. It's a Latin primer in a casual but upscale setting attended by a charming staff.
Ambience: The studied, rustic patina of the dining room is a stark contrast to the lobby's shiny travertine marble. Beyond the bellboys and Starbuck's, the chocolaty wood floor, teaky tables and deep leather couches create a warm ease. Dozens of thick glass jars hang over bare bulbs illuminating the space like fireflies. Namesake metal bulls dot the décor while accents of red add a needed dash of color. A wide and welcoming L-shaped bar is worth a stop for a cocktail like the signature Ring My Bell, a bell pepper and rosemary-spiked margarita with a zing. A hundred-bottle wine list is global and value-priced but has only a few by-the-glass selections.

Chief of State Natasi Daala has been overthrown, and the Jedi Order has taken control of the Galactic Alliance. But while the new governors dismantle Daala's draconian regime, forces still loyal to the deposed official are mobilizing a counterstrike. And even the Jedi's new authority may not be enough to save Tahiri Veila, the former Jedi Knight and onetime Sith apprentice convicted of treason for the killing of Galactic Alliance officer Gilad Pellaeon.
Meanwhile, Luke and Ben Skywalker are relentlessly pursuing Abeloth, the powerful dark-side entity bent on ruling the galaxy. But as they corner their monstrous quarry on the planet Nam Chorios, the two lone Jedi must also face the fury of the Sith death squadron bearing down on them. And when Abeloth turns the tables with an insidious ambush, the Skywalkers' quest threatens to become a suicide mission.

Huge protests rock PoK against rigged polls July 27, 2016 15:11
Locals in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) have hit the streets to protest against the rigged July 21 election. Huge protests were witnessed in the Muzaffarabad, Kotli, Chinari and Mirpur, after the members of the PML(N) allegedly killed a supporter of the Muslim Conference (MC) in Muzaffarabad.The protesters alleged that they were not allowed to cast their votes and Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) agency and others rigged the polls in favour of Sharif's PML(N). The PML-N has bagged 31 seats out of the 41, while the Muslim Conference and Pakistan People's party bagged three seats each.Locals allege that elections in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir have always been fixed in favour of the federal ruling party. The protests have spread across the towns of Kotli, Chinari, Mirpur and Muzaffarabad. The administration in Pakistan has issued a warning to clamp down on any reporting by media.Sharif has stressed the need to improve the relations with India in his successful campaign for the last general election in 2013, but the powerful army, which oversees security and foreign policies, is seen as wary of making big concessions quickly.Last year reports had emerged that residents of PoK were openly advocating to be a part of India. They were said to be impressed with PM Narendra Modi's style of governance. Chairman of the Anjuman Minhaj-e-Rasool, Moulana Syed Athar Hussain Dehlavi, who had toured PoK had said that people residing in the region want to be a part of India. According to Dehlavi, the people of the region are distressed with growing extremism in Pakistan and want to lead a peaceful life. Given the opportunity, they would want a referendum so that they can vote to join back India.The situation of people of Pakistan occupied Kashmir is very bad as there is no primary facilities in PoK for the people like drinking water, roads, employment and houses. Pakistan army killed people of PoK without any reason. At this they did not talk about the human rights. (Video Source: ANI News)By PremjiRead More
Two more Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in the scanner July 27, 2016 13:27
Two more Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) lawmakers are in trouble, while Rajesh Rishi, has been accused of extortion and named in a police complaint by an AAP woman worker who has allegedly attempted suicide, Kartar Singh Tanwar, found an income tax team at his doorstep this morning.Mr Rishi has denied any links with the activist who allegedly attempted suicide on July 15 over a dispute with a colleague. The woman has allegedly tried to kill herself after leaving a note in which she has alleged that she had been harassed by her colleague and the lawmaker. Her husband has now been accused of rape in a complaint by the second woman.Mr Rishi said: "I do not know the woman who has levelled allegations against me. But, I know the other woman as a party worker. My name has been unnecessarily dragged into their dispute."Karan Singh Tanwar, the lawmaker from Chhattarpur in South Delhi, faces a case after tax raids at his home.The raid on Tanwar's residence will add fuel to the already bitter political war between the AAP and the Modi government."Are so many consistent attacks on AAP justified? Are all the criminals of the country in the AAP?" AAP leader Sanjay Singh asked. This is a very relevant question by seeing the events unfolding.Earlier, Two AAP lawmakers were arrested within 12 hours on the weekend - Amanatullah Khan, the party's lawmaker from Okhla, was arrested for allegedly trying to run over a woman protesting outside his home against power cuts and Naresh Yadav, AAP lawmaker from Mehrauli, is accused of desecrating the holy Quran.By PremjiRead More
Wrestler Narsingh Yadav's food spiked, suspect identified July 27, 2016 12:57
Information emerging from the SAI Centre at Sonepat points to the younger brother of an international wrestler in the super-heavyweight category, who has allegedly infiltrated Narsingh's room and contaminated his food supplements. He himself is a 65 kg wrestler and has represented India in the junior ranks.The suspected intruder was allegedly seen hanging around Narsingh's room when the 74kg freestyle wrestler was with the Indian team in Bulgaria. An FIR has been filed, according to Wrestling Federation of India. Narsingh himself also went to file a written complaint at Samalkha police station, near Panipat. "He claimed that he suspects a few people who may have spiked his food supplements and water," said a source in Haryana Police.Narsingh said that training in Sonipat was a huge mistake despite the presence of national coaches. "Had I stayed in Mumbai for training instead of Sonipat, I would not have landed in the dope trouble," he said.Meanwhile, wrestler Narsingh Yadav's parents, relatives and neighbours sat on a day-long dharna at Achgara village in Varanasi demanding high-level inquiry into report about Narsingh failing dope test."It is a clear conspiracy against my son Narsingh. We demand for high-level inquiry into the matter or CBI investigation because it is a big conspiracy by the people who do not want my son to participate in Olympic Games. We are also sending a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi demanding for inquiry into the matter," said Narsingh's father Pancham Yadav, a native of Neema Murari village in Varanasi.Narsingh's elder brother Vinod Yadav said, "It is a clear case of conspiracy because he has been in the sport for the last 14 years and he knows what to eat, drink and which supplement he should avoid."He added: "We could not understand why Narsingh would use anything which could hamper his career. Moreover, it is beyond our thinking why would his roommate Sandeep Yadav, who is not participating in the Olympic Games, would use such thing," said Vinod, who is a railway employee in Mumbai. When contacted, Zilla Panchayat Member of Cholapur, Dileep Choubey, who also attended the dharna, said, "A meeting was organised after the dharna and it was decided to take out 'mashaal rally' in Varanasi everyday till July 30 seeking support of people on the issue."By PremjiRead More

They continue to be with us all the time by the sheer power of their thoughts, ideas and their contributions to the motherland and humanity at large. Dr Kalam will live forever in our minds and hearts." Institute director Amitabha De said, "Dr Kalam's legacy is to make the planet more livable, not only for the present, but for future generations as well.

Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje took to twitter to pay rich tributes to Kalam."Don't be pushed by your problems, be led by your dreams." An inspiration loved by all, remembering #APJAbdulKalam ji," Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje tweeted. Dr. #APJAbdulKalam was a epitome of simplicity,hardwork and Morality.

Aprilia SR 150 Bookings have begun in Parts of India July 27, 2016 11:06
Bookings for the sporty scooter Aprilia SR 150 have begun in Mumbai and Pune. A few of the dealers are currently taking bookings with token advances of Rs. 2000. Just last week, the price was announced as Rs. 65000 by the Piaggio Group. Though the price is relatively higher than most of its rivals in the scooter segment, the Aprilia SR 150 has been much awaited. So, the Aprilia already commands a good prospective share of the market too. However, the competition in the segment is not a cakewalk with both the Honda Activa 125 and the Suzuki Access 125, competing fiercely as the heavyweights in the market. They are also priced lower than the Aprilia SR 150. The Piaggio Group will now sell the Aprilia through the Vespa dealerships, though it had plans of selling the scooter through separate dealerships for the Aprilia scooter. The company may not take such a drastic step in the initial phases. It will all depend on the performance of the Aprilia to see if it will have a separate dealership as planned. The engine powering the Aprilia is the same as the Vespa's 154.4 cc, single-cylinder, 4-stroke, air-cooled engine; mated to a CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission). The power output of this engine is 12 PS and 11 Nm of torque. The Aprilia SR 150 is a very sporty and distinct scooter in its looks with the bold and aggressive telescopic front forks suspension and the larger tyres for a scooter. The headlamp is positioned much below the console in the mid-region of the front-shield. With a smaller instrument cluster, the handlebars and the position of the indicators seem to create better riding comfort. Though the bookings have begun, an official Indian launch will be made in August. Currently, the scooter gets a waiting period of 30 days. Source: Vicky.inRead More
Sanders loyalists took to the street against Clinton's nomination July 27, 2016 10:28
Bernie Sanders loyalists protested inside and outside the Democratic National Convention site and clashed with police after Hillary Clinton won the party's presidential nomination. "This was not a convention. This was a four-day Hillary party. And we weren't welcome," said Liz Maratea, a New Jersey delegate at the media tent protest. "We were treated like lepers.""We all have this unrealistic dream that democracy is alive in America," said Debra Dilks, of Boonville, Missouri, who said she wasn't sure she'll vote in November. "Hillary didn't get the nomination. The nomination was stolen."Despite Sanders' calls to support Clinton, thousands of activists have taken to the streets during the convention to voice support for the liberal Vermont U.S. senator and his progressive agenda.Unmoved by Sanders' plea for party unity, the Bernie or Bust protesters walked miles in the stifling heat to make their case for him. They held a midday rally at City Hall, then made their way down Broad Street to the convention site. By early evening, a large crowd had formed outside the subway station closest to the arena."I suspect we are witnessing an event that will fundamentally change American politics," said James, of Flint, Michigan.College student Cory James said he expects the Democratic Party to split over the nomination."He persuaded no one to vote for Hillary," said Greg Gregg, a retired nurse from Salem, Oregon, who intends to cast his ballot in November for Green Party candidate Jill Stein."They really agitate people more every time they stand up and do the Hillary Clinton hoo-rah hoo-rah," Black Men for Bernie founder Bruce Carter said.Chris Scully, an engineer from Troy, New York, held a "Jill Before Hill" sign outside City Hall and said he opposes Clinton because of her war record as U.S. secretary of state.By PremjiRead More
Mallanna Sagar Project Lands KCR in Trouble July 27, 2016 10:04
Telangana Chief Minister KCR has been undefeated after the formation of the separate state Telangana but the leader has been facing lot of heat from the people from his own district because of the Mallanna Sagar project which has been opposed by a section of people from 14 villages of Medak district. Massive protests from the villagers supported by opposition Congress party made KCR land in confusion. Mallanna Sagar project has an estimated budget of Rs 9800 crores and around 30,000 people from 14 villages of Medak are now on the streets opposing the decision of their Chief Minister. The government estimated that 12 lakh acres of irrigation land spread across the districts of Rangareddy, Nalgonda, Nizamabad, Medak and Warangal will be irrigated and the project could hold 51,000 million cubic feet of water. However the fact is that 14 villages will be vanished because of the prestigious Mallanna Sagar project. Though the government has been ready for hefty compensation, the villages are not ready to step forward. Let's wait to see how KCR and his team will handle the matter.
