No way. Still do not know, what should I do. I have built defenses, even repair them after air strikes, but the second objective is not completed. I do something wrong, I know. But what is it? On all marked points I put 88 guns, some units, barbed wire, etc. No hope. F...ck the second objective. Medal is already mine.

Does anyone have the real answer of what needs to be done. Do you need to fall back to the river, give up bases, then take them back after for the medal? Do you need to sit and distroy everything for 30 min? What may seem clear and easy to you, may not when read by someone that has not done it yet, but thanks.

Are Facebook's privacy requests for its Messenger app as creepy as they seem?
Is Facebook asking for a bunch of creepy invasive permission to access features of the cellphones of those who use its mobile Messenger app?
Kind of. But they're the same creepy permissions many apps seek, and there are legitimate, helpful reasons Facebook is seeking the information, a number of tech writers are reporting.
Facebook also argues that the concerns that have been blazing throughout the Internet are based on inaccurate information.
The issue is surfacing as Facebook is starting to force its millions of mobile users who want to send text-like messages to each other to start using a separate app.
Facebook says it's doing this to give users a faster experience. In addition to the privacy concerns, many have complained about now having to use two apps to do many of the same things they used to be able to do in one.
Several publications took note Friday of Facebook's explanation of why it's requesting permission for features like accessing your phone's microphone without permission, read your phone's call log, and accessing your photos and videos.
The Wall Street Journal
(A)ccording to Facebook, the concerns about its Messenger app are overblown, and based on misinformation.
Much of the problem, Facebook says, is due to Android's rigid policy on permissions. Facebook says it doesn't get to write its own, and instead must use generic language provided to them by Android. The language in the permissions "doesn't necessarily reflect the way the Messenger app and other apps use them," Facebook wrote in a Help Center article designed to address what it calls misinformation on the topic.
The Washington Post
In Facebook's defense, there are plenty of legitimate reasons for requesting these permissions. Messenger needs access to your camera, for instance, so that you can send pictures, and few people would want to confirm microphone access every time they use the app to place a call.
These kinds of sweeping permissions are also extremely common — probably to a degree you don't realize. Even the most vanilla apps collect extraordinary amounts of personal data.
From Global News
Facebook has outlined some of the ways it uses the permissions requests within its app in its help center, on a page that is dedicated to addressing concerns over its apps.
For example, the permission stating Messenger may "download files without notification" is used by Facebook to "improve the app experience by preloading News Feed content."
You can check out Facebook's official explanation as to why it needs to look into all of the corners of your phone.

Brett Favre has gotten himself into a bit of a predicament as the NFL continues to investigate allegations of sexual harassment involving Favre and former New York Jets employee Jenn Sterger.
Sterger has kept quiet after she (through a third party) released compromising voicemails and photo messages believed to be from the Vikings quarterback, and Favre hasn't said much himself.
As the league moves forward with its investigation, we learn more and more about this situation.

Mum on Immigration
In the extraordinary battle to keep his legislative seat, Arizona's most hawkish proponent of strict enforcement of illegal immigration laws is, incredibly, mostly muted on the subject.
Since a recall election against him was certified last month, Senate President Russell Pearce has passed on the opportunity to weigh in on major developments in the immigration front.

The winds of change have blown through Liverpool Football Club, as new faces greet the club and older ones bid farewell. Jordan Henderson, Jose Enrique, Charlie Adam and Stewart Downing were all brought to Anfield by Kenny Dalglish in what turned out to be a busy summer transfer window for the reds.
But that was long ago, and now the main concern for the new signings is to gain Kenny Dalglish's confidence and play as many games for as many minutes.
I think now is a good time to analyse which signing has performed best so far. Enjoy.

Makers of fine guns since 1829
Registered Trade Mark
W W Greener (Sporting Guns) Limited, The mews, Hagley Hall, Hagley, Stourbridge, DY9 9LG, United Kingdom.
Telephone: 44 (0)1666 510351. E-
Copyright: Graham Greener © 2015
W W Greener was a member of the second generation of a family which has been involved with gun making from 1829 to the present day. Today the company still makes the finest sporting shotguns and rifles in its Midlands workshops.
William Greener was the first to make guns. After serving his apprenticeship with John Gardner in Newcastle Upon Tyne he worked for Joe Manton, probably the best English gun maker in the early 1800's. Returning to Newcastle in 1829 he set up on his own to make percussion muzzle loading sporting and military shotguns and rifles, and harpoon guns for the Dundee whalers. However, there it was difficult to obtain the best materials so he moved to Birmingham in 1844 where Greener gun making has remained ever since.
William was an inventor and during his lifetime he invented; the expansive bullet (1835), an electric light (1846 -
After William's death in 1869 his second son, William Wellington Greener, continued the family tradition of making high quality sporting and military guns, and his inventions helped to develop the breech-
W W Greener's two sons Harry and Charles took over the business from their father in 1910 and ten years later the firm was incorporated into a Limited Company. Production was switched to military requirements during two world wars and during the intervening period demand for very high quality sporting guns diminished. The company under the two brothers, and later Leyton Greener, Harry's son, concentrated on well made, but less expensive 'Empire' models and single barrel GP shotguns -
But the building of the inner ring road in Birmingham meant the factory complex fronting St Mary's Square had to go. So, in 1965 the company was sold, the old factory with its imposing Victorian edifice was pulled down and production for the company as a family run business ceased. Webley, which acquired the gun making part of the business continued to make the single barrel GP for a few years but it was not until 1985 that the company was bought by its present owners, including Graham Greener, W W Greener's great grandson, David Dryhurst and Richard Tandy, two of the country's finest gun makers.
The next few years saw a return to making best quality sporting guns. To promote this in 1987 the 'New St George' 12 bore side-

Before his signature blue polo had even dried from the ceremonial Gatorade shower, Will Muschamp had moved on.
Players were still passing out "Gator Bowl Champions" hats and celebrating with their Lombardi-esque trophy when Muschamp, speaking to the roughly 10,000 fans lingering in the stands, didn't fully buy into the revelry.
Addressing those who had only recently paused chants of, "It's great… to be… a Florida Gator," Muschamp could've rode the wave. It was the perfect platform to praise his senior class and talk about how great UF's win was.
Instead, he said 7-6 is "unacceptable," promised improvement and asked for patience. He later elaborated on those comments.
"The realization of this whole thing, if you want to see big pictures, in the last two years of the University of Florida we're 15-11," Muschamp said. "Sometimes I think you've got to put your realistic glasses on where you are as a program right at this point. It's not where we're going to be very long. I can assure you of that."
Like everyone else in the program, Muschamp seems to want to move forward and wash his hands of this disappointing season.
The sooner Gators fans can forget 2011 and get back to winning, the better.
But, in flushing away this season, Muschamp and the fans are also tossing out memories of this senior class.
The fact of the matter is John Brantley, Chris Rainey, Jeff Demps, Jaye Howard and the rest really don't have a place in Florida history.
Each of the last five years will be remembered for entirely different reasons. From 2007 to 2009, it was Tebow time. Then 2010 was the year Urban Meyer retired, and 2011 was when Muschamp laid the foundation for whatever his era eventually becomes. No Rainey. No Demps. No Howard. Not even Brantley.
Rainey said he thinks the senior class will be remembered for this game — for going out with a win. Howard felt the same way, adding that at least the 2011 Gators won't be known as the first team since 1979 to finish with a losing record.
"We don't want to be remembered as a team that lost," Howard said. "It was a big game for us – not only for the seniors, but the program as a whole."
It's fair for Howard and Rainey to hope that, but people won't remember this game past next season, if that far. Florida sold just 8,000 of the 15,000 tickets it was allotted, and it's hard to call this a particularly memorable game. Neither offense reached 300 yards but neither defense was truly dominant, and the Gators won because of two big plays on special teams.
So what was Monday's win? Many Gators hope it was a stepping stone. Matt Elam, Ronald Powell and Sharrif Floyd, among others, said the victory was a good way to build momentum going into the offseason.
"We're not building a team, we're building a program," Muschamp said. "That takes a foundation to start."
And that's just what Brantley and Co. will go down as: a foundation. Buried and forgotten under the next era of Gators football.

Plethodon asupak
Scott Bar Salamander
Subgenus: Hightonia
|family: Plethodontidae
subfamily: Plethodontinae
Species Description: Mead LS, Clayton DR, Nauman RS, Olson DH, Pfrender ME 2005 Newly discovered populations of salamanders from Siskiyou County California represent a species distinct from Plethodon stormi. Herpetologica 61: 158-177
© 2006 Henk Wallays (1 of 19)
In life, a broad brown and bronze dorsal stripe extends from the head to the tail. The sides of the body are chocolate brown. Most parts of the body are flecked with white and yellow spots, especially on the sides and on the limbs. The ventral surface is dark gray to purple and is mottled with light gray patches and some white flecking. The gular region has more dense white flecks. The chin is gray and somewhat mottled. Eyes are black with gold flecks on the upper and lower regions (Mead et al. 2005).
Juveniles differ from adults in having two orange or red-brown stripes that extend from the eye toward the tail. The two stripes fuse into a single band just posterior to the vent. Dorsal stripes are lined with black pigment, which is replaced by brown pigment on the sides of the body. White or yellow flecks are concentrated on the dorsal surface of the head, the lateral parts of the trunk, and limbs. The ventral surfaces are dark gray to purple and have white flecks (Mead et al. 2005).
Similar species: Plethodon asupak can be distinguished from the similar species P. elongatus and P. stormi by allopatric location, a wider head and longer limbs, a slightly shorter tail relative to the body length (tail/body ratio of about 0.80 in P. asupak vs. 0.85-0.90 in P. elongatus and P. stormi) and by generally having one less intercostal fold between adpressed limbs (limb interval of 2.5-3.5 in P. asupak vs. 5-6 in P. elongatus and 4-5 in P. stormi). It can also be distinguished from P. elongatus by larger size (average total length 111.3 mm for P. asupak males, and 125.0 mm for P. asupak females, vs. average total length of 91.6 mm for P. elongatus males and 97.4 mm for P. elongatus females).

The specific epithet "asupak" is the Shasta Indian name for the area of the type locality. The Karuk tribe of Shasta Indians settled in this region and saw salamanders as omens of good luck and as serving to purify water (Mead et al. 2005).

Books in Brief
Home Health Care
Cranberry Circus! is dedicated to the caregiver, the "ringleader" in home health care. Belying its outward gaiety, the book begins with hard legal advice, then touches every practical base in complete how-to detail (medication charts, bathing, enemas). The author, a caregiver herself, emphasizes comfort and morale, suggesting simple events that a patient can look forward to and telling how to "make The Getting Well Room the most cheerful room in the house!" Visually and textually, the book is lively and humorous— "Real estate people say when evaluating property, it's location, location, location! When you're caring for the elderly and most people who are ill, it's Fluids, Fluids, Fluids!" (the fluid recommended? cranberry juice, of course).

Edinboro secures 2nd place as team at Midlands
EVANSTON, Ill. -- The Edinboro wrestling team tied its highest finish ever at the 51st Ken Kraft Midlands Championships, thanks to Mitchell Port's title and a pair of third-place finishes Monday night.
Edinboro took second place with 1021/2 points among 47 teams at the prestigious two-day tournament at Northwestern's Welsh-Ryan Arena. Iowa coasted to first place with 1871/2 points. Michigan (84) and Illinois (83) took third and fourth, respectively.
The Fighting Scots last finished second at the Midlands in 1996. Iowa also won the title that year.
Port, ranked No. 1 nationally, dominated the 141-pound division, beating Steven Rodrigues of Illinois 11-2 in the finals.
Edinboro had four other medalists. A.J. Schopp finished third at 133 pounds and Johnny Greisheimer was third at 157 pounds, while Ernest James placed fifth at heavyweight and Vic Avery placed eighth at 184 pounds.
Lehigh's Mason Beckman, a Reynolds graduate, wrestled back to fifth place in the 133-pound bracket after losing to Schopp 5-0 in the consolation semifinals.

Harvard is now one of the world's largest hedge-funds, with its $38 BILLION portfolio tax-exempt because of the college it runs as a charity off to one side.
The university's annual investment income is twenty-five times larger than its net tuition revenue.
Meanwhile, thousands of student families are forced to spend most of their life-savings on $180,000 of total tuition, while relatively few non-affluent students even bother applying.
Paying tuition to a giant hedge-fund is unconscionable, and Harvard should immediately abolish all college tuition.
Pulitzer Prize Winner Daniel Golden has documented the corrupt admissions practices at Harvard and other elite universities, which favor the wealthy and the powerful over more able students from ordinary American families.
A nation that selects its elites by corrupt means will produce corrupt elites.
There is also strong evidence that Harvard has a system of "Asian Quotas" just like the "Jewish Quotas" of the 1920s.
Racial discrimination against Asian-American students has no place at Harvard University.
Harvard administrators and other critics of our campaign have opposed our effort by making some claims that just aren't correct.
For example, they say that Harvard can't possibly eliminate tuition and that we're secretly trying to eliminate Affirmative Action.
Get our side of the story and decide for yourselves.
Led by Ralph Nader and Ron Unz, our Free Harvard/Fair Harvard slate of candidates is running for the Harvard Board of Overseers on a platform that Harvard should abolish college tuition and greatly increase the transparency and fairness of the admissions process.
This Spring over 320,000 holders of Harvard degrees will select their Overseers, and if our reform slate of candidates wins that referendum, we believe the university administration will be under enormous pressure to follow the expressed will of the Harvard community by abolishing tuition and increasing the fairness of the admissions process.
If you support us, together we can change Harvard, and many other leading American universities may soon follow.
The most important thing all of you can do is spread the word—on social media, in alumni organizations and on university campuses.
If enough Harvard alumni discover the facts about the enormous income from the existing endowment and the evidence of unfair admissions decisions, we will probably win, and other elite universities will follow Harvard's lead.

GLASSBORO Rowan University's president on Wednesday recommended a 1.9 percent increase in undergraduate tuition and fees for the next academic year.
President Ali A. Houshmand told the board of trustees, who ultimately will set the price, that his 2014-15 proposal meets his pledge that increases never exceed the rate of inflation.
"We genuinely wanted to come up with facts and figures before we made the final decision," Houshmand told the trustees and about 15 students who attended a tuition hearing on campus.

Based on its freshly released 2012 production and sales figures, Toyota (NYSE: TM ) has retaken the title of world's largest vehicle maker. The company sold nearly 9.75 million automobiles aroud the globe last year, eclipsing General Motors' 9.29 million.
That 9.75 million represented a year-over-year increase of almost 23%. Production and sales in 2011 were negatively affected by an earthquake in Japan that disrupted the company's output.
Worldwide production saw a 26% annual rise for Toyota, to 9.9 million units. This percentage was essentially the same for output in Japan, where the company produced 4.4 million automobiles.
Sales in the company's domestic market were very brisk. They advanced by 35% to just over 2.4 million vehicles.

Edward Snowden Makes 'Moral' Case For Presidential Pardon (theguardian.com) 387
An anonymous reader quotes a report from The Guardian: Edward Snowden has set out the case for Barack Obama granting him a pardon before the U.S. president leaves office in January, arguing that the disclosure of the scale of surveillance by U.S. and British intelligence agencies was not only morally right but had left citizens better off. Speaking on Monday via a video link from Moscow, where he is in exile, Snowden said any evaluation of the consequences of his leak of tens of thousands of National Security Agency and GCHQ documents in 2013 would show clearly that people had benefited. "Yes, there are laws on the books that say one thing, but that is perhaps why the pardon power exists -- for the exceptions, for the things that may seem unlawful in letters on a page but when we look at them morally, when we look at them ethically, when we look at the results, it seems these were necessary things, these were vital things," he said. "I think when people look at the calculations of benefit, it is clear that in the wake of 2013 the laws of our nation changed. The [U.S.] Congress, the courts and the president all changed their policies as a result of these disclosures. At the same time there has never been any public evidence that any individual came to harm as a result." In his wide-ranging interview, Snowden insisted the net public benefit of the NSA leak was clear. "If not for these disclosures, if not for these revelations, we would be worse off," he said. But Snowden still wants to return to the U.S. and seems confident, in spite of all the evidence to the contrary, that it will happen. "In the fullness of time, I think I will end up back home," he said.

Obama's Power Plant Rules Seek To Reduce CO2 By 30%
Of course, not while he's in office. Nor anytime soon. The full details of Obama's energy cost skyrocketing plan will be released by the EPA today
(Wall Street Journal) The Environmental Protection Agency will propose a draft rule on Monday seeking a 30% reduction in carbon-dioxide emissions by 2030 from existing power plants based on emission levels from 2005, according to two people who have been briefed on the rule, setting in motion the main piece of President Barack Obama's climate-change agenda.
The rule, scheduled to be completed one year from now, will give flexibility to the states, which must implement the rules and submit compliance plans to EPA by June 2016. States can decide how to meet the reductions, including joining or creating new cap-and-trade programs, deploying more renewable energy or ramping up energy-efficiency technologies.
Each state will have different percent reduction standards, and the national average will be 25% by 2020 and 30% by 2030, these people said.
Essentially, this is no more than throwing a bone to the unhinged Warmists, and not much different from the "spreading awareness" campaigns Warmists have engaged in for 25 years. It will do little, and possibly never be initiated. If a Republican wins the White House, he/she can throw the rules out immediately. Lawsuits will surely be filed by the end of this year, and they will continue on easily through 2016. Funny how the rules do not have to be in place prior to Obama leaving the White House, eh?
What we do know is that Democrats in energy producing states are distancing themselves from Obama over these coming rules. The Hockey Schtick notes that these rules will do nothing for climate or public health. Amy Ridenour has ten reasons why Obama shouldn't impose "climate change" rules, including
- 1. The world isn't warming. Scientists measuring surface temperatures and atmospheric temperatures using satellites – including scientists who believe in the global warming theory — say the Earth hasn't warmed since the Clinton Administration.
- 2. Anti-global warming laws hurt people. All the major legislative and regulatory proposals to combat global warming kill jobs and disproportionately hurt lower income people and minorities.
- 4. Global warming climate models don't work. Since 1979, over 96 percent of models predicted more future warming than took place.3 The models, run backward, also fail to predict past temperatures. Our climate system is extremely complex, and even the world's most knowledgeable scientists don't yet understand it.
Many, many states are already looking to blunt the soon to be released rules. You can bet most controlled by Republicans will simply blow them off.
I've noted many, many times (as others have), that there has been no statistically significant warming in 17 years and 9 months. This, despite CO2 levels continuing to increase. Something else to note
Pretty much every single poll finds "climate change", which is, sadly, rolled in under the banner of environment/pollution, to be last to dead last on the list of Things Americans Are Concerned About.
Really, this will be much-ado-over-nothing. It's simply an in-the-moment distraction from Team Obama, meant to deflect from all the other bad news. That said, it will make a nice attack point for the GOP as we approach the mid-terms.

Eva Gabrielsson discusses aftermath of Norway attacks on Democracy Now!
July 28, 2011"In the aftermath of the Norway attacks, we look at the work of Stieg Larsson, an author known less for his extensive research into right-wing extremism in Scandavia and Europe than for his international blockbuster books, published after his death and known as the Millennium Trilogy: "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," "The Girl Who Played with Fire," and "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest." As part of his passion to "counteract the growth of the extreme right and the white power-culture in schools and among young people," Larsson founded the Swedish Expo Foundation and edited its magazine, Expo. We go to Stockholm, Sweden, to speak with Larsson's lifelong partner, Eva Gabrielsson, about the research they did together before his death." -- From the Democracy Now! website

Anna Anthropy headlines Babycastles exhibit
July 26, 2011The [Bad Bitches] exhibit's two "headlining" games were both developed by indie creator Anna Anthropy. Alexander had nothing but praise for Anna, a talented game designer and critic who has won a great deal of admiration in the indie gaming community. Both of Anthropy's games at Babycastles focus on the same decidedly non-conventional topic of BDSM relationships. But through her clever use of familiar game design tropes and humor, even the conservative and squeamish find little, if any, barrier of entry.

Book review: Johan Harstad's Buzz Aldrin "shimmers with life"
July 26, 2011"Harstad's writing (and Deborah Dawkin's translation of it) shimmers with life. . . . Harstad uses sparse language to eloquently state things we've all thought or felt at some point in our lives. Through Mattias he questions the very meaning of our existence on this planet and what the end result of all our struggles translates to. Be forewarned: once you let Harstad and his cast of damaged characters into your life you may find that you never want them to leave. . . . I've given this book the maximum rating of five stars, but if it was possible I would bestow entire constellations upon it."

Ina May Gaskin on the Diane Rehm show
July 26, 2011Listen to the audio interview here. Download the audio to your computer. Fetal monitors, forceps and medication have become commonplace in American delivery rooms. Now a third of American babies arrive by C-section. A new book examines the industry of delivering babies. The author - veteran midwife Ina May Gaskin - says a climate of fear has led some women to give up control of the birth process to the medical establishment. She advocates greater respect for women's bodies, wider acceptance of natural deliveries - and new efforts to reconcile modern life with a process as old as humanity itself. Ina May Gaskin talks about her "midwife's manifesta." Guest Ina May Gaskin is the founder and director of the Farm Midwifery Center in Tennessee; author of "Spiritual Midwifery" and "Ina May's Guide to Childbirth."

Which is perhaps what makes the hero of Norwegian author Johan Harstad's Buzz Aldrin so refreshing and fascinating: He shies away from fame or recognition of any sort. . . . we follow this man who wishes not to be followed, tracing him through Harstad's delectably light but nonetheless impactful prose. . . . The novel's finest moments wrap you up in communion with Mattias, as if you are spending a quiet afternoon with an old friend, chatting but mostly thinking. Something makes you want the book, like its narrator, to slip quietly into the forgotten with the crunching of time, to be something that you managed to touch at one point but exists somewhere unattainably, contentedly." -- Kelsey Burritt, Three Percent

I know a lot of people dislike the original Amiga mouse and use modern mice on their computers but I feel it's mostly because of the ball. What would be perfect is an Amiga mouse but with optical sensor.
So I made it. For my PC.

Mini Vectrex 3D PrintedAugust 27th, 2015
There are many "Mini" computers and consoles that have already been 3D modelled. However I didn't find a Vectrex anywhere. I had already been doing work on a Vectrex Emulator and decided to model my own and make it work.
The heart of the system is the VoCore I have been playing with on and off for a while now. It's not super powerful and pushing the pixels over SPI is quite slow, but for something like the Vectrex emulator it does it ok. The screen is a cheap 2.2″ SPI LCD off ebay, originally a phone screen but now very commonly used by the Arduino crowd. It has a touch screen but that is not connected in this case. This is my first VoCore board and I didn't wire up as many GPIO or even the hardware SPI so the few (4) working GPIO I have broken out all go to the LCD to draw the image.
I used Google SKetchup to make the Vectrex case. I exported it and loaded the mesh into Meshlab to clean up and scale.
Finally it was printed on my M3D (Micro 3D) printer in PLA. I took many prints to get a good one, with lifting/curling problems and many other failures as well as adjustments in size. When I finally had the thing done I realised 2 things.
1) I hadn't included mounting posts for the LCD.
2) I hadn't included any way to join the front and back of the case.
Oh well, what else is Hotmelt glue for eh?
The Emulator itself is a port of VECX that I modified to write directly to my LCD instead of using SDL or other graphics method. Power comes from a small LiPo inside and a 3.3v LDO to feed the VoCore and LCD. This makes it totally self contained and portable, along with WiFi it makes it a nice little unit.
The STL files for the case can be found here.
Final outcome? Watch a little demo here,
And a better quality video here,
More VoCore, Sketchpad and VectrexFebruary 12th, 2015
So. I added a heatsink to the chip to control the raging fires, it helps but not a lot.
I also worked out the touch controller and hooked it up to the GPIO pins leaving the LCD on the hardware SPI (all working now). This let me write a little sketch app,
VoCore Sketch
The extra touch space at the top works as four soft buttons. It's not very advanced, just proof of concept for the touch controller.
Lastly. More emulation. I ported VECX to the VoCore. Now it works better with software GPIO due to the time spent on each system call for the hardware SPI and the fact it does lots of lines. Each line calls single pixel drawing which is at least 9 bytes per pixel, all called individually so I can toggle the command/data register ¤Öü
With software SPI it runs pretty much full speed! This is only a problem if I want to swap between my other stuff and the vectrex app as I have to re-wire the screen ¤Öü
VoCore VECX
Skylanders, in detailDecember 4th, 2014
Why are Skylanders so hard to hack? Well. Without revealing anything that isn't already actually public, here are some details on what's going on.
Skylanders are MiFare classic compatible.
(What I am about to say here is public knowledge and in no way secret or hacking related).
Mifare Classic has 16 sectors (each with 4 blocks of 16 bytes) on the chip. Each Sector has an access key (2 actually but nobody ever uses the second).
You can NOT read a block without it's key (each Sector of 4 blocks has one key so 16 keys per chip). It is impossible to get a single byte of data off a Skylander without the key for the block you are trying to read.
The only data you can get is the UID of the figure (it's RFID Address/SN) and a couple other bytes used to pick which card you are trying to read. All this is part of the NXP MiFare standard and can be researched with not a mention of Skylanders. It's a well understood technology.
The portal has some math deep inside it that it uses to calculate the figures keys, once it has done this it can read any data block on the figure. This means the keys are NOT sent to the portal via USB or even stored in the firmware on the portal. You can't extract them that way.
Data stored on the chip (figure) is sent back to the console from the portal after reading but it is STILL encrypted. Activision chose to encrypt the data on the figure AS WELL knowing that the portal could be used to retrieve that data by almost anybody.
This is NOT part of the MiFare standard, it's an added layer of encryption put on the data that is stored itself.
The first block is not encrypted by Activision, this contains the figure ID and a few other bits that never change. All editable data is encrypted. This is the bit that the "first" hacker worked out making everything else possible. However, even reading the data doesn't let you change it as there are checksums that prevent writing without knowing the formula to put the correct checksum byte back on the figure. Without that the new data is "corrupt" when viewed in game.
So, with only a Portal and basic skills with USB you can read all the data from a figure but it's useless except the basic info on what figure it is (which is write protected).
I have yet to see the Amiibo or Disney Infinity figures to know if they are the same but would imagine if they use MiFare Classic that it's not going to be a huge leap to assume something similar.
VoCore Alpha gets LCD with Doom and NES EmulationOctober 16th, 2014
So I got the VoCore alpha a while back. It didn't work. Turns out a design flaw meant a modification was required to get it running. I got two, and they were both b0rked.
The 0402 components required for the fix are what I class as "dust" and the two modules were quickly shelved for "future use". Or not….
Roll forward some months and I manage to gain access to a stereo microscope and some tiny tools. I fix both VoCore and solder up some breakout boards for them.
What to do? Well, lots.
Firstly USB was configured with sound and HID as well as storage. I got a webcam and did streaming video, a USB sound card and played internet radio and fiddled with all the normal stuff openWRT gets to do.
Then I hooked up a small Nokia display (Thanks Sparkfun!) using SPI (software only, hardware SPI pins are not broken out on the VoCore alpha board). A quick port of an old NES Emulator later and I have this,
NES Emulator on YouTube (This is sped up as the emulator was slow when the video was filmed. I have since increased the speed to be almost playable)
After this success I moved onto the old favourite, Doom.
Doom on VoCore (This video is realtime, but not playable as the fps is far too slow).
So current state is that the VoCore is a great little board that is quite capable. I have started to get hardware SPI working by hooking onto the flash SPI pins but am still having speed issues. The goal is to bring up the speed and then work on a framebuffer driver for the VoCore.
Any week now all the original Kickstarter backers will start to receive their VoCore boards and I think then the fun really starts ¤Öé
mtGox victimFebruary 25th, 2014
So, I had about ┬Ż600/$1000 in mtgox when it went down.
I had been trying to withdraw my money for months but they were just delaying and making excuses on approving my account to prevent just that. In the end I lost everything.
Anybody that feels sorry for me can donate here,
Not much you can do except move on and curse the people that said to use MtGox because it was "safe".
VFD Clock with NTP+SNMP+HTTPDecember 4th, 2013
So I built myself a clever clock.
One I never need to set, even during Daylight savings.
One that monitors the temperature and lets me remotely log it.
This is the clock to end all clocks. I will never need another one ¤śē
(Till I build a better one)
Full details here.
Fun with SkylandersFebruary 1st, 2013
Ok, so I finally caved in and bought some Skylanders stuff cheap on ebay. I got a second hand Portal and game for the 3DS (for my son, honest). Now, it didn't come with figures but the save games had 2 figures cached so we can still play.
Looking for figures I found the start set figures were pretty much nowhere to be found, so to get them I bought a PC starter pack, with Portal and Game.
Now I don't want to play it on the PC and will probably resell the PC game, but out of interest (before the PC one arrived) I bought just the Wii game with no portal and no figures, just a disk.
The 3DS portal with USB cable WORKS with the Wii version! I have yet to try the PC portal on the Wii but as that has USB it should work too, plus it holds more figures.
So, it looks like for compatibility the 3DS portal is best, working with the PC, the Wii and the 3DS (maybe xbox/ps3 too?). However it only holds one figure because it's smaller.
Turns out the system used is a standard ISO RFID so lots of RFID cards trigger the portal, obviously they don't read as figures but its funny to see your oyster card trigger the Portal of power as if you put a figure there.
So, My figures arrive and I play. For no reason one of them corrupts.
I have NO idea how to fix this in the Wii version I am playing, but luckily I have the 3DS version and DO know how to fix it in that.
I place the figure in the portal and the 3DS offers to reset it, I do so and it "works".
Sure enough, the Wii recognises it too.
Worried by this I decide to backup all the figures right away, The first two backup no problem but the figure I "fixed" will not backup and gives errors.
Is it possible the Figure is damaged? The Wii/3DS still read it but the PC won't back it up. Very strange.
PS2Pad TXJuly 11th, 2012
I built a quad-copter (That's for another post!) and bought a cheap chinese 6 channel TX.
It sucks (The TX that is).
I built my own TX from scratch using a 2.4ghz plugin RF module designed for converting 35mghz transmitters into 2.4ghz versions.
The base of the TX is a PS2 pad, the vibration motors were removed and the control chip desoldered. An AVR was installed in one of the "arms" of the pad where the motor was removed from.
The two sticks were connected directly to ADC0-ADC3 on the AVR.
It turns out the pad had "analogue" buttons and these were not good enough to trigger the digital inputs on the AVR. The solution was to fit 4 small micro-buttons behind the shoulder triggers to provide a good action. The top buttons were ignored.
These 4 buttons trigger the "aux" channels, sending a value around 1500 when off and 2000 when pressed. This allows me to trigger options on my quad.
To power the whole thing a small 500mah 3.7 lipo was fitted inside the radio TX module and a 3v to 5v step up adaptor fitted inside the pad. A lipo charger with mini-USB connector was fitted near the old cable outlet.
The LiPo charger outputs 100ma, so 5 hours to fully charge the battery, while the step up converter is capable of 500ma max, so 1 hours maximum run time.
I have yet to do a test to see how long it works in actual usage, but I expect more like 2 hours+ in normal use.
The code to generate the ppm signal is from an open source project called Funkenschlag by a friend from IRC.
Pic Power Meter finally LIVE!July 22nd, 2011
So, after google killed the Google PowerMeter api I got the incentive to finish my own project using it. Odd huh.
I wrote loads of code to hook into the google API ages ago, but never got the hardware setup. Now After Google announce the death of the API I finally cracked the last part of my hardware issues and have live power monitoring of my electricity meter.
The key difference to most here is that its NOT a clamp type sensor. It counts rotations of the meter disc itself. It is therefor accurate and matches exactly what I will be charged for.
There are three parts,
1> Pic (UBW board) with IR reflectance sensor
2> Moxa Serial to Ethernet convertor
3> Database server
The Pic board counts rotations of the disc in 1 minute increments. Every ten minutes it connects to the server over serial (to ethernet UDP) and uploads all ten readings
The server saves these into a mysql database.
I wrote some PHP code to generate graphs of various data, this is proving to be the hardest part. Getting the data to look good.
Please excuse the awfull graph but I shrank it to make it fit nicely in the blog post, in the full version you get it nicely labelled and some extra info like average KW/h and total KW/h for the time period selected.
The biggest problem is the jaggedy graph, this is a side effect of the fact I count rotations per minute. Rather than time each rotation. Because the average rpm is low I only get about 1 rotation each 30 seconds. So its very easy to get a reading of 1 followed by 2 by 1 by 2 etc as that second rotation moves slightly back and forth over the 60 second boundry.
I am looking at ways to smooth this out without distorting the data too much.
I used the PIC UBW board because the USB port allowed me to compile code and program the pic in <30 seconds without unplugging anything. The serial to ethernet converter remained connected to the serial port so my development cycle was quite fast for the PIC code. I did some simple software debounce of the IR sensor (just in case) but it doesn't seem to be needed. The end result is completely non-invasive to the meter (yes, in the pic you can also see my OWL clip on sensor, this is not part of the new system and only runs a small LCD by my PC). The next step is to find a sensor that will trigger from the gas meter and allow me to monitor that too. They are close together so the hope is I can use another input on the same PIC and upload both sets of readings at the same time. This graph has allowed me to identify individual appliances by time and watch their power use, with a little more detailed study I will eventualy work out the power profile for each device and possibly predict when each one is turned on and off purely from the graph data! I can spot my fridge, my oven and washing machine already.

New &
News from Anne – April 2016
I've been locked in the writing cave for what seems like months (years? it blurs!), but some of those projects are starting to make their way out into the world and I'm excited to hear what you think! SWEET FOR A SEAL's bad boy hero bets another bad boy that he can stay celibate for a month… and then Fate drops our heroine into his lap (okay–he pulls her car out of a ditch, sweet talks her into adopting two kittens, and *then* works his charm on her). This is part of ASSIGNMENT: Caribbean Nights, a loosely-linked series I'm writing with the fabulous Kat Cantrell and Zoe York.
It's also werewolf time! Because what's sexier than big, bad bikers who happen to turn furry? Ware's story releases in mid-May, and Blade's story will be as early in summer as I can make. I'll keep you posted! I have some absolutely gorgeous covers for this series, and I can't wait to share the books with you.
And if you're going to be in San Diego for RWA this summer… look me up! Cristin Harber, Zoe York, and I will be presenting a workshop and I'll be wandering around snagging mountains of free books.

RETIRED: Garage Sale Discussion for selling stockpiles
Score 0
Thread Details
It's that time of year again when Garage sales are popular. I have seen some discussion of Garage Sales in regular discussion threads, and perhaps there is talk of it in the BS thread, but I think it would be good to have it's own thread and people can add in the WIKI what sold for them and at what price - or what they will sell it for.
This way people having a garage sale can have a nice reference sheet and can learn from the mistakes of others. I will post in the WIKI info I have read.
Yes, I am having a garage sale this weekend at a friends work. I have read some info on another site and it is nice that they have their own thread for this.
Garage sales are not for everyone, please no bashing on those who wish to do it. It's a way to make money to buy more coupons and fuel your 'addiction'. LOL!
Mods, if you think this would be better suited in a different forum, please advise or move. I just thought it would be good to have a garage sale discussion and a WIKI to boot to help others.
April 20, 2009, 3:00 am: System Notice: This thread has been automatically renewed after reaching a post limit. Most of its content has been moved to this thread for reference purposes.
Community Wiki
Once a Thread Wiki is added to a thread, "Create Wiki" button will disappear. If you would like to learn more about Thread Wiki feature, click here.
PLEASE NOTE: This WIKI is a reference guide to price the items you may have. Know your states laws before selling new unopened items or medicine. Laws vary from state to state, and can from city to city on what is allowed to be sold at a garage sale or flea market. Sell at your own risk. Thanks!
Garage Sale Tips:
- Use a muffin tin to keep coin denominations separated.
- A fishing tackle box is a great way to keep money safe and organized - coins separated in the compartments, and bills underneath. Some even have locks
- Use a carpenter's apron with pockets in the front. Works great, bills and .5 and .10 on one side, .25 on the other. It goes with you, for safety and conveience. Works great for school soncession stands too..
Here is how I think we can get a good array of information for each product/item. Let's say Toothpaste for example. If one person sold it successfully at $1, and another at $1.50 and another at $1.25...post it like this
Toothpaste 4.0z: $1.00; $1.25; $1.00; $1.50
Toothpaste 6.0z: $1.50; $1.00
Then people can get an array of info on the price point to sell their items. If anyone has any better suggestions, please post it. Anyone can edit the WIKI - just hit EDIT on the bottom of the WIKI post. :-)
Please post what you sold items at in your individual post - and if you are in a big metropolis or not - this sometimes makes a difference.

I also advertised in the paper. I'm also trying something new. Since I have to work Friday...I'm doing my sale 5-8 p.m. and then Sat. 8-2 p.m. (Just thought I'd have no competition at 5 pm on a Friday so I'll let you all know how it works out).
Any other suggestions?

HAVE YOUR RECEIPTS SOMEWHERE CLOSE BY in case you get nosey people questioning you. I have read in threads that someone had the cops called on them because some people thought she stole it all. You don't have to let police in your house if they don't have a warrant. Don't let them in. I know you have nothing to hide, but there is no reason to let them in. (Just reminding you of your rights) Easiest if you have a box of receipts to show them to prove you bought it all. It will shut them up and they will be on their way. ;-)
This is something you may not think of, so I'm just reminding you. I keep my receipts in a Huggies Wipes container. I love those things. ;-)
I'll just tell him some 'broad is here with her big boobs hangin' out'...
Good luck!!!

Your prices are a little confussing & I think shoppers are going to get confussed & you may also. My first sale I did it that way & no one could keep track.
I would do one big table with deodarants, glade candles, toothbrushes & toothpaste, shampoo all that stuff that is about $2 and do $2 each or 3 for 5 Some items you may have gotten a little more from but other items like the toothbrushes you were going to get less for so it will definitly even out. It will be way easier for you & your customers.
Then maybe do a $4 table or 3 for $10 with the razors & more expensive items.
Then maybe a table of 1.25 or 5 for 5 if you think you need it
It keeps it easier & you won't have to deal with all that change if you can keep most items at 1 price.
Good luck
price however you like, just clearly mark everything with a price tag, and have a calculator handy.
For me, Shampoo does not sell well. I really hesitate to buy it even when they pay me to take it because all my sales are outside my home and those boxes are so damn heavy to move. But for others, shampoo flies. I priced all mine at $1.50 and it sells, just doesn't sell out.
