Small wheel building question
I think this group has the most experience with small wheels, so I ask it here.
Do we really need 32 or 36 spokes on the smaller wheels we ride? Doesn't the smaller diameter result in less stress on the spokes?
I'm thinking of building up my own 349 mm wheels, but am considering just using 18 or 16 spokes. I like the minimalist, cleaner look. Is that silly?
Much depends on rider weight, rim width, tire size and shape and the quality and tension of the build. The Moulton F frame and Mark III original standard on steel 349 rims is 28 hole. These have proven very durable for me on my 1965 Moulton Stowaway and 1974 Mark III.
I am a large person so you may be able to manage with fewer spokes if you are not a clydesdale. I have no experience to offer on reduced spoke numbers on 349 wheels.
As far as I can deduce from the theory, the spoke spacing at the rim is pertinent, at least to a first degree. So going by that, even 28h is plenty; a 24spoke 406 wheel is about equivalent to a 32spoke 700c wheel. So a 16-spoke 349 is eq. to a 32-spoke 700c wheel wrt spoke spacing at the rim.
I have a 16spoke on my Swift front and I have meted out harsh treatment to it but it soldiers on.
I say go for it. Especially with suspension, the wheels live easier.
You have the choice to skip every other hole on a 32h or 28h rim, but this may lead to every 2nd spoke laced to a hole drilled for the other side; or you can skip every other pair, which will not have that problem. In addition, the rim will tend to be straighter as spoke loads are balanced more. With widely spaced spoke the rim can assume a snake pattern.
First lets look at spoke loading from the hub end.
The forces on individual spokes will depend on the number sharing the load. It does not matter what the wheel diameter is. From the point of view of strength, you could halve the number of spokes provided that each spoke is twice as strong.
If we now consider the rim loading.
The spokes also have a role in stabilizing the rim. If we look at it from rim strength alone, the first order factor would appear to be spacing so if you halve the rim diameter you could halve the number of spokes (Each spoke would still have to be twice as strong though)
If we consider deflection in the spoke
Assuming that each spoke has the same stress (force / cross-section) then the strain (Deflection / length) will be proportional to length. So if you have half as many short spokes that are each twice as strong and each carries twice the load, they will stretch half as much and you won't need as much preload to prevent movement at the ends of the spokes.
Deflection of the Rim should probably also be consdered but I'm too sleepy to think that through.
The bottom line appears to be that you can use fewer spokes on a smaller wheel but if you do, they each have to be stronger.
I ride with 16 on both my small wheeled bikes and have had no problems. Rims and hubs were both 32h and you do encounter certain issues when spoking if halving the spokes because of the way the holes on the hub are offset by half the distance between the holes. But they're good and solid and seem plenty strong enough for me, even if I'm only a diminutive fella. (5'5"; +/- 145 lbs)
Just thinking about this leads me to say that a smaller wheel will require less spokes. Extrapolate to extreme examples and think about it - say a 12 foot diameter wheel and a 12 inch diameter wheel, both with say 36 spokes. The tiny wheel will be almost solid spokes, while the giant wheel will have spokes very far apart and supporting a much larger structure that is getting much more torsional stress.
I usually try to keep the spoke to rim size ratio the same. For instance, on the commuter I have a 36 spoke wheel on the rear. So when going to an ERTO 406 wheel, I would solve the following: x/406 = 36/622 to get x ~ 24. Of course, a constraint is the number of holes on hubs and/or rims. You can, obviously, do a 36-hole hub to a 36-hole rim, only using every other hole to get 18 for a 349 wheel.
The boss' Bike Friday has a 36 hole hub laced to a 24 hole rim. I recall that I posted some pictures in the past. I can take more and send them to you if you wish.
I've a fair amount of small wheel experience after 20+ years on recumbents.
Rarely do I use a full compliment of spokes. I've learned a few things along the way, usually by doing it wrong first.
Always use and skip spoke holes at the rim in pairs
skip 2-use 2-skip 2-use 2
skip 2-use 4-skip 2-use 4
skip 4-use 2-skip 4-use 2
Use the lightest spokes and stiffest rims possible. Spokes don't break because of too much load, they fatigue from going through loose-tight-loose-tight cycles. It's almost impossible to keep a 14g short spoke so tight it will always be stretched when you are skipping holes.
Heres a few of mine, all 406.
24 spokes on 36h rim and hub. I gave up getting the lacing right with 24, so I laced up all 36 spokes, X2 and then took out 12.
16 spoke X1 gives a very nice looking wheel
This one used a Velocity AeroHEAD, about 2/3 the weight of an AeroHEAT. Has thousands of miles on it with no maintenance.
Early on I built a racing recumbent wheel with 12 spokes on a light Sun M13 rim. Spokes were 14 Ga and I used every 3rd hole. It lasted through 2 seasons, but because I couldn't put much tension into the spokes I had to re-true it often.
We have 18 radial on the from of our Moulton without any trouble.
Another option is to use spokes long enough for a crossing pattern, but only put the trailing spokes on one side and the leading spokes on the other. Builds a fine long lasting wheel.
Here is the 24 hole rim and 36 hole hub I discussed earlier.
Can't send any of the pics of my wheels b/c I'm away, but you can always just pick up 355s from Black Dog. Not sure what kinds of hubs he has available, but those wheels are built with 36 hole hubs laced 24 spokes to 24 hole Alex rims. The rims are about the same weight as the Aeroheat, and in my very limited experience, seemed to be built better (no blip at the seam at all). The advantage of this approach is that the rims won't have extra holes in them. But make sure you like Schwalbe tires or you'll be ordering from Japan!
I don't know much about wheel building other than what I have read recently.
I need a pair of 406 size wheels for a folder and I like the look of MnHPVA Guy's 16-spoke X1 wheel shown above (middle picture) for the front.
Looks easy to lace but would it be difficult to get enough tension, or the right tension? And what would be the tension?
I am looking at a Velocity Aeroheat 32 hole rim and a 32-hole hub.
Could you use a 16-hole hub? Hard to visualize what it would look like.
Thank you for reading.
I've been advised elsewhere that this is not a good idea for a first attempt so I will follow their advice and drop this idea.
Foldingbikes.co.uk can make me a set of 20" 406 wheels with 20h and 28h using Velocity Razor rims and Hope Pro 3 hubs but that rim is very narrow at 20mm and I would be concerned about difficulty in fitting and removing tyres. Would prefer Aeroheat rims but can only find them in 32h and 36h.
Hey I got a front wheel from a Raleigh Mega Max. Its has the same spoke pattern as that wheel. I paint stripped the rim, its a nice alloy v rim. 406 size. 24 spoke. I was thinking of fitting it to the front of my F1 BMX. But the hubs a bit rusty. I might try building in a 36 hole hub.
Oh yeah, heres a link to a Raleigh Mega Max on ebay, so you can see what they look like. If your gonna search for them, as donor bikes.
My Mk2 Brompton had a 20 spoke radial spoke, in a steel flange hub-shell ..
( no Risk of the head pulling through the hub flange.. )
Bike Friday gets 24 hole rims and Hubs..
got a source of rims drilled with less holes?
extra un filled holes in a rim are sure to let in rainwater..
"got a source of rims drilled with less holes?"
Hi fietsbob
Only the Velocity Razor with 20 holes that I mentioned before.
Strada Wheels (checks wallet) will build me a 16 spoke radial front with a PMP hub using a 32-hole Aeroheat rim.
Would have to think of some ingenious way to plug the unused holes.
Thanks for that link alecw35, nice spoke pattern that.

USB 3.0 Compatability
Hi, I am having a strange problem with my USB portable hard drives. I have thre portables 2 seagates and 1 WD Essentials. Individually all of them are recognized and the transfer speed is pretty decent. My probem occurs is when I try to use two of them at the same time, one will load and display the other will not display and eventually removes itself. I have a P6X58D-E mother board which has two USB 3.0 ports on the back of my PC. My controller is Renesas Electronics USB 3.0.
I must also add I can use any of my three above portable drives and a usb stick 3.0 stick with no problem at all, the the problem seems to be only with my system not allowing me to have two portable drives running at the same time.
I can also run a portable usb 3 direct from its port whilst plugging the other two into usb 2.0 ports, again no problem all drives show.
My Renesas Electronics USB 3.0 Host Controller driver version is 126.96.36.199 and my firmware version is 3034
Greatly appreciate any help to solve this most annoying problem.

Windows 7 Ultimate x64
Hi nIxIe,
Technically, your motherboard has two USB controllers the Renesas/NEC® USB 3.0 controller (2 x USB 3.0 ports) and the Intel® ICH10R controller (8 x USB 2.0 ports). It is possible that the USB 3.0 controller is unable to handle the power demand of those 2 external hard drives to simultaneously work at the same time. Thus, plugging those portable HDDs to the USB 2.0 controller doesn't have problems since the controller handles 8 USB 2.0 ports and is able to manage the power demand of those 2 external drives to work at the same time.

A USB PCI-e card is a good shout, you can pick a Renesas one up for about fourteen quid, maybe less. That'll give you two extra ports at the back powered separately. Alernatively you could pick up one of these if you have a midboard header not in use. I have one in my backup rig and it's great.

Ghaziabad: Reiterating that he did not have any substantive discussions with Pakistan Prime Minister Raja Parvez Ashraf on his daylong visit to Ajmer Sharif yesterday, External Affairs Minister Salman Khurshid on Sunday said it was just a courtesy extended to the visiting dignitary from a neighbouring country.
"We did not have any formal discussions yesterday and neither was it the right occasion to do so. This is a basic courtesy that is extended to a dignitary, especially a prominent one from a neighbouring country," Khurshid told media here on the sidelines of the Central Industrial Security Force's 44th Raising Day.
" If the dignitary selects a place in our country where he gets personal peace, then we just receive them courteously with respect and allow them to do what they want. We expect the same for our pilgrims when they visit Pakistan to pay obeisance at the Sikh shrines," he added.
To a poser on whether there was achievement during the talks with the Pakistani Prime Minister, Khurshid said 'success is not achieved in one day or in one moment'.
Khurshid, who received Ashraf at the Jaipur airport yesterday, hosted a lunch in his honour at the Rambagh Palace Hotel.
Taking to the media in Jaipur after lunch yesterday, Khurshid said that it was a personal visit and that there was no formal discussion with the visiting Pakistani Prime Minister.
"This was not an occasion where I could have taken up the contentious issues, nor did I have the right to discuss those issues, which are being raised in the country and by the government. However, we will raise them at the right time and will continue to do so in the near future," said Khurshid.
"This was his personal visit and the time was not appropriate to take up any important issue, which otherwise we would have taken up at the time of an official visit," he added.
The Pakistani Prime Minister offered prayers at the historic dargah of Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti during his private visit Ajmer that was marked by protests.
Ashraf, who was accompanied by his wife, sons and other relatives, offered 'chadar' and floral tributes at the Mazar of the Sufi Saint in Ajmer.
Elaborate security arrangements were made in and around the shrine keeping in view the Pakistani Prime Minister's visit. (ANI)

Graphics: Mesa 17.2.3, Libinput 1.9 and MoreSubmitted by Roy Schestowitz on Thursday 19th of October 2017 09:54:55 PM Filed under
mesa 17.2.3
Mesa 17.2.3 is now available.
In this release we have:
The Vulkan drivers ANV and RADV have multiple small fixes.
The EGL code has improved handling of the new wl_dmabuf codepath.
SWR no longer crashes when checking environment variables.
Other gallium drivers have also seen updates - freedreno, nouveau and radeonsi. The gallivm module, used by llvmpipe et al. has gained little endian PPC64 fixes.
Mesa 17.2.3 Offers Vulkan Fixes, Gallium3D Updates
Mesa 17.2.3 is now available as the latest bi-weekly update for this current stable driver series.
[ANNOUNCE] libinput 1.9.0
libinput 1.9 is now available. As expected, not a lot of changes since the
rc2: a few test fixes, a fix to stop excessive logging and an extra
assert so we fail early in case of a bug.
Libinput 1.9 Released With Input Improvements, Requires Meson
Peter Hutterer has today released libinput 1.9.0 as the latest version of this library used by both Wayland and X11 systems for unified input handling.

Radeon Linux Gaming Performance: Ubuntu 17.04 vs. Ubuntu 17.10Submitted by Rianne Schestowitz on Thursday 19th of October 2017 12:53:18 AM Filed under
With Ubuntu 17.10 set to ship tomorrow that features just not an upgraded Linux kernel and Mesa 3D stack but also transitions from Unity 7 + X.Org to GNOME Shell + Wayland, here are some comparison gaming benchmarks on a few different AMD Radeon graphics cards.
Ubuntu 17.04 shipped six months ago with Linux 4.10 and Mesa 17.0.7 as the main graphics components for open-source driver users while now with Ubuntu 17.10 is the Linux 4.13 kernel and Mesa 17.2.2. The six months of improvements to Mesa alone are massive for Intel and Radeon users with the RADV/ANV Vulkan drivers maturing much over this time (17.10 still doesn't ship with the Vulkan drivers, but are just a sudo apt install mesa-vulkan-drivers away) as well as many performance improvements and new extensions for the growing number of bundled OpenGL drivers. If you read Phoronix daily, you should already be well versed on the many Mesa accomplishments over this time span.

Linux and Graphics: AMD, Linux 4.14 LTS, Etnaviv Gallium3DSubmitted by Rianne Schestowitz on Wednesday 18th of October 2017 12:29:35 AM Filed under
Linux 4.14 Ensures The "Core Performance Boost" Bit Gets Set For AMD Ryzen CPUs
Recently making waves in our forums was talk of a kernel patch to address a case where the AMD CPB (Core Performance Boost) isn't being exposed by Ryzen processors. Here's more details on that and some benchmarks.
Being talked about recently is f7f3dc0: "CPUID Fn8000_0007_EDX[CPB] is wrongly 0 on models up to B1. But they do support CPB (AMD's Core Performance Boosting cpufreq CPU feature), so fix that."
Linus Torvalds Is Confident That Linux Kernel 4.14 LTS Will Arrive on November 5
Development of Linux 4.14, the next LTS (Long Term Support) kernel series, continues with the fifth RC (Release Candidate) milestone, which was announced by Linus Torvalds himself this past weekend.
According to Linus Torvalds, things have finally starting to calm down for the development of the Linux 4.14 LTS kernel, and it looks like the RC5 snapshot is smaller than he would have expected, at least smaller than last week's RC4, which is a good thing, meaning that there won't be need for eight RCs during this cycle.
Etnaviv Gallium3D Is Almost To OpenGL 2.0 Compliance
The Etnaviv Gallium3D driver that provides reverse-engineered, open-source graphics support for Vivante graphics hardware is almost to exposing OpenGL 2.0.
Etnaviv contributor Christian Gmeiner today posted a set of patches for adding occlusion queries support to the driver. The code at just over one thousand lines of code is the last major feature needed for exposing desktop OpenGL 2.0 capabilities with this community-driven driver.
AMD Developers Begin Making Open-Source FreeSync/AdaptiveSync Plans
While the AMDGPU DC code is expected to land for Linux 4.15 with goodies like Vega display support, HDMI/DP audio, and atomic mode-setting, one of the sought after display features won't be initially supported: FreeSync or the VESA-backed AdaptiveSync.
As we've known for a while, while AMDGPU DC fills out the requirements for being able to support FreeSync, the last bits of the implementation are not present as the interfaces are basically yet to be decided among the open-source driver developers. While AMD can post their existing FreeSync code as found in AMDGPU-PRO hybrid driver, they are trying to come up with a more standardized interface that will satisfy the other upstream Linux driver developers too that might want to support AdaptiveSync.

Graphics and Games: AMDGPU DC, Vulkan, GOGSubmitted by Roy Schestowitz on Saturday 14th of October 2017 02:37:12 PM Filed under
More Pre-4.15 AMDGPU DC Patches To Test Out This Weekend
For Radeon RX Vega Linux users or those with newer Radeon GPUs and just wanting to make use of HDMI/DP audio, there are some new "AMDGPU DC" patches ready for testing this weekend.
While AMDGPU DC is being staged as a pull request finally for Linux 4.15, the work hasn't yet settled down as AMD developers continue taming this massive code-base of more than 120,000 lines of code. Just recently in fact were another 100+ patches for this display code that allows Vega/Raven display support, HDMI/DP audio, atomic mode-setting, and other display feature updates long sought after by Radeon users.
Vulkan 1.0.63 Introduces Global Priority Support
Vulkan 1.0.63 is now available as the latest minor update to this high performance graphics/compute API.
As usual, Vulkan 1.0.63 is mostly made up of document corrections and clarifications. There is though one new extension.
Humble Bundle has been acquired by IGN
This is rather unsettling to see, Humble Bundle has now officially joined with the massive media site IGN.

Mesa 17.3 Coming Soon, X.Org Server 1.19.5 is OutSubmitted by Roy Schestowitz on Friday 13th of October 2017 01:17:48 AM Filed under
Mesa 17.3 Will Be Branching Soon For Releasing In Mid-November
Feature development for Mesa 17.3 will be over soon in order to get this quarterly update to Mesa3D shipping next month.
Release manager Emil Velikov is planning to issue the feature freeze and first release candidate next Friday, 20 October. That will mark the deadline for getting major features/improvements into Mesa 17.3, after which point it will be reserved for bug fixes.
xorg-server 1.19.5
One regression fix since 1.19.4 (mea culpa), and fixes for CVEs 2017- 12176 through 2017-12187. C is a terrible language, please stop writing code in it.
X.Org Server 1.19.5 Released To Fix Another Handful Of Security Vulnerabilities
Ouch, so basically a lot of potential for buffer overflows. Sadly, this is not the first time we have seen a big batch of X.Org Security vulnerabilities and security researchers in the past have generally characterized X.Org security as even worse than it looks.

7-Way Linux Distribution Comparison On The Intel Core i7 8700KSubmitted by Rianne Schestowitz on Thursday 12th of October 2017 11:09:13 PM Filed under
Our latest benchmarking of Intel's 8th Gen Core "Coffee Lake" processors entailed seeing how well the i7-8700K performs on a variety of modern Linux distributions. Tested for this comparison was Ubuntu 17.10, Antergos 17.10, openSUSE Tumbleweed, Clear Linux, Debian Testing, Solus 3, and Fedora 26.
With these seven GNU/Linux distributions they were tested out-of-the-box following a clean install on the i7-8700K setup. Some highlights from these distributions include:
The Arch-based Antergos 17.10 rolling distribution has Linux 4.13.5, GNOME Shell, Mesa 17.2.2, GCC 7.2.0, and EXT4 by default.

Kernel and Graphics: LTS, NVIDIA, Mir 0.28, RADVSubmitted by Roy Schestowitz on Thursday 12th of October 2017 04:22:34 PM Filed under
Linux LTS Kernel Support Extended to 6 Years
Despite being a free and open source OS, Linux has one of the quickest development cycles. Every 70 days, a major new version of the Linux kernel rolls out. This deprecates any older versions except for the few Long Term Support releases. In a sign of changing times, the Linux kernel lifetime is getting a major boost. From now on, the Linux LTS kernel will be supported for a whole 6 years. Jumping up to 6 years is a tripling of the current 2 year support period. This is especially goods news for Android.
A Reverse-Engineered Tegra Video Decode Driver Steps Closer To Mainline
NVIDIA Releases Linux Graphics Debugger 2.2
NVIDIA has today released an updated version of their Linux Graphics Debugger to help game/application developers in analyzing issues and performance problems around OpenGL 4.x on GeForce/Quadro GPUs.
RADV Vulkan Driver Gets An On-Disk Shader Cache
The RADV Radeon Vulkan driver in Mesa now supports an on-disk shader cache.
Timothy Arceri working for Valve who previously spearheaded the RadeonSI OpenGL on-disk shader cache support has added a similar on-disk shader cache for the RADV Vulkan driver. Vulkan supports the concept of a pipeline cache for reusing cached objects between pipelines and runs of a game/application.
Another Minor Performance Optimization For RADV
While Timothy Arceri working for Valve was busy wiring up an on-disk shader cache for RADV, Samuel Pitoiset working for this gaming giant has been tackling some additional optimizations.
Mir 0.28 Arrives As A Late Addition To Ubuntu 17.10
Not that Mir is playing a pivotal role in Ubuntu 17.10 now that the transition has occurred to GNOME Shell and Wayland for this release, the new Mir release should make it into the archive. Mir 1.0 was expected up until yesterday when it was announced Mir 1.0 would be released as Mir 0.28.

Linux 4.10 To Linux 4.15 Kernel Benchmarks
The ThinkPad X1 Carbon has been enjoying its time on Linux 4.15. In addition to the recent boot time tests and kernel power comparison, here are some raw performance benchmarks looking at the speed from Linux 4.10 through Linux 4.15 Git. With this Broadwell-era Core i7 5600U laptop with 8GB RAM, HD Graphics, and 128GB SATA 3.0 SSD with Ubuntu 17.10 x86_64, the Linux 4.10 through 4.15 Git mainline kernels were benchmarked. Each one was tested "out of the box" and the kernel builds were obtained from the Ubuntu Mainline Kernel archive.

PGA Championship 2015: 5 things we learnedAugust 16, 2015 Golf News
Jason Day was a Major champion in waiting and even Jordan Spieth can't win them all
Day was due
And in a big way. While Jordan Spieth's Major season will go down as one of the best on history, even the Texan phenom would surely not begrudge his final-day playing partner a first Major title.
The Queenslander has become the fourth Australian to win this championship, following in the footsteps of Jim Ferrier (47), David Graham (79), Wayne Grady (90) and Steve Elkington (95).
Day's consistency in the Majors is incredible – this was his 10th Major top-10 finish in just 21 appearances.
He has finished 2nd and 3rd in the Masters, 2nd (twice) and 4th in the US Open, 4th in the Open (last month) and 8th in the PGA. And of course he now has a W to his name.
Just two months ago, his US Open chances were affectively ended by a bout of vertigo related to an ear infection. Now he is looking down on the golfing world.
It surely isn't getting carried away in the moment to suggest that here is a golfer good enough to challenge Rory McIlroy and Jordan Spieth for years to come and make this into a three-way rivalry.
And at 27, he's also young enough to do so.
We salute you, Jordan
He's the new World No 1 and he chased Jason Day all the way to the finishing line.
It summed up Spieth's relentless form this calendar year and gives him a Major record in 2015 that reads: W, W, T4th, 2nd. His total score in the four events in relation to par is more than 50 under par.
Yes, he has been helped by Rory's mid-season injury but he fully deserves his new status as officially the best player in the world.
And so consistent is he that even Rory might struggle to reassume pole position.
Right now, it seems that he doesn't even need to be at his best to contend – over the course of a Major he just naturally makes his way through the field to the top of the pile.
It might not always be this way and who really knows what kind of form he will bring to Augusta next April but it feels for all the world that Spieth is embarking on a special career.
Rory was just too rusty
It was well worth him giving Whistling Straits a go as long as he was confident he could not do his injured ankle any further harm. There was nothing else to lose.
With no Major action now for eight months, Augusta is a long way away. You only get four chances a year to add to your Major collection and Rory had already sacrificed one of those by missing out at St Andrews.
Of course he came here to win, but in truth his chances were extremely limited. To turn up for a Major with so little preparation makes life extremely difficult and we all know that it is on and around the greens that it shows the most.
He actually played very well all week – to finish in the top 20 in what was his first start since June is remarkable.
It does however mean that he ends the year Major-less – and not many would have predicted that 12 months ago on the back of winning both the Open and the PGA.
"It feels for all the world that Spieth is embarking on a special career."
This was a birdie-fest, unlike the US Open
At face value, yes. Over 50 players finished the week at Whistling Straits under par, compared to just eight at Chambers Bay in June's US Open.
But with par at the latter 70 versus the former's 72, let's look at the aggregates instead.
In the US Open, 45 players finished at 287 or better – a total good enough to register as sub-par when the par is 72.
Here, it was 53. So not so different at all.
Yet at one event we were hearing about an impossible course and greens variously described by the players as like putting on broccoli or cauliflower.
While the other featured flawless greens and a host of scorable par 5s and short par 4s.
It makes you realise (or it should do) that for all their attempts to manipulate course conditions and therefore the scoring, the USGA by no means always succeed.
There are marked similarities between the two host courses of Chambers Bay and Whistling Straits – the difference this year was the way their respective orgainsers (the USGA and PGA respectively) went about setting up their venues.
I know which one the players preferred.
It was the US Open leaderboard all over again
In both Majors the following players finished in the top 20:
Spieth, Day, Johnson D, Rose, Grace, Snedeker, McIlroy, Kuchar, Finau, Koepka.
That's curious. It must reflect the fact that the courses had similarities (see above). It also tells you that these men have been among the best players in 2015.
The notable absentee from this list is our Open champion, Zach Johnson, whose record in the Majors reads: T9, T72, 1, MC.

Weekend Box Office Report: 'Gods of Egypt' Gets Trampled By 'Deadpool'
Deadpool topped the box office for the third weekend in a row, which is an impressive feat for any movie…but it helps when all of your competition arrives with a thud. Gods of Egypt, Eddie the Eagle, and Triple 9 all flopped in their opening weekends, making the continued box office victory of Ryan Reynolds' foul-mouthed superhero all the more staggering.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Kung Fu Panda 3' Leads Another Slow Weekend
Kung Fu Panda 3 once again led the box office this weekend, but like its lower-than-expected opening weekend, it's not as impressive as anyone was hoping or expecting. DreamWorks Animation's sequel managed to fend off a trio of newcomers, but each of those films disappointed in their own ways, leading to a shrug-worthy top 10 that feels like Hollywood just accepting that everyone is going to be watching the Super Bowl instead of going to the movies.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'The Revenant' Leads Another Close Weekend as Every New Release Underperforms
It wasn't that surprising last week when Ride Along 2 officially dethroned Star Wars: The Force Awakens as reigning champion of the box office. However, what is surprising is how fast and far it plummeted in its second weekend. As the comedy sequel's legs instantly shattered, The Revenant was finally able to claim the top spot after several weeks of playing box office bridesmaid.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Ride Along 2' Dethrones 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens'
Star Wars: The Force Awakens wasn't going to reign atop the box office forever. Something was going to take it down sooner or later and we'll just be honest — we expected it would take a little longer than this. At the same time, anyone who thought that Ride Along 2 wouldn't perform well has a short-term or poor memory, as the first film was a gigantic hit this time last year. An Ice Cube and Kevin Hart buddy cop comedy dethroned the biggest movie in the history of the U.S. box office from the top of the charts and it's not that surprising.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' Will Surpass 'Avatar' in a Day or Two
It took Avatar two and half months to become the highest grossing movie of all time. Star Wars: The Force Awakens will surpass its domestic box office gross within the next day or two after less than three weeks in release. The big question now is when J.J. Abrams' sequel will find its ceiling because as of right now, it's showing no signs of slowing down.
SNL Introduces Settl, the Dating App For Desperate People
SNL commercial parodies are at their best when they're at their most scathing. The fake ad for a fictional dating app called Settl may not be as dark as that vicious, pro-gun parody from a while back, but it's a different brand of cynical: Here is the app for people who are tired of trying to find the right person and just want to settle down with, well, any person.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'The Good Dinosaur' and 'Creed' Face Off Against 'Mockingjay'
Once families finished feasting on Thanksgiving, they had several options: continue enjoying each other's company in the privacy of their own home, brave the crowds in search of deals at the retail store of their choice, or nip any potential argument over politics in the bud by heading out to the movies. Option three was apparently a popular one this year, as the overall top 10 for the week was the healthiest it has been in awhile, with The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 fending off The Good Dinosaur and Creed, which still performed well.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2' Sets the Box Office on Fire
As expected, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 topped the box office charts this weekend. But like the war in the movie itself, it all feels like something of a hollow victory. That may seem like a weird thing to say about a movie that broke $100 million in its opening weekend, but this is a new low for the series' box office receipts…and it's not even close.
SNL Digs Up the 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' Screen Tests You Never Thought You'd See
With Star Wars: The Force Awakens less than a month away from release and anticipation reaching a feverish level unseen in movie fans since 1999, the timing is right for SNL to gently skewer the upcoming sequel. The sketch is really just an excuse for the cast to break out a bunch of impersonations they've obviously been keeping in their back pockets while letting them interact with actual Star Wars cast members, but c'mon, that's all the excuse you need, really.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Goosebumps,' 'Crimson Peak,' and 'Bridge of Spies' Battle It Out
The success of Hotel Transylvania 2 proved that family-friendly horror-themed movies stand to make a whole bunch of cash when released in the vicinity of Halloween. Now, Goosebumps is here to ensure that we'll be getting slightly scary kids' movies every October for the foreseeable future. The adaptation of the popular book series opened at number one, riding a wave of nostalgia and family appeal to a very strong start, beating out some pretty serious competition.
The 10 Best Horror Movies Currently Streaming on Netflix Instant

Here are the 10 best horror movies currently streaming on Netflix Instant. From bonafide classics to newer discoveries, these movies have a little something for everyone.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Pan' Fails to Take Flight While 'The Martian' Soars Again
Pan has had disaster written all over it for the better part of a year now, so it's not surprising that Joe Wright's Peter Pan origin story stumbled in its opening weekend. However, no one was prepared for it to stumble as badly as it did as it ran face-first into The Martian and Hotel Transylvania 2.

roller assembly from a 20-year old Tyco branded 8-foot slider insert
A quick learner from Broad Run, Va 20137 says:

trying to replace a pair of identical front and rear rollers...
Tom from SWISCO responded:
June 22, 2016
Thanks for posting! I think we can help replace this, but we will need a bit more information. It looks like the part in your photos is just the inside portion of a larger roller unit. There should be an outer housing that goes with this, probably still in the door. Could you show us a picture of the whole thing together? Thank you!

The 'build-essential' package itself is not build-essential, it's a helper package depending 'accidently' on all build-essential packages. In the context of build-depends, a dependency on 'build-essential' is essentially a no-op, but this isn't catched by the above-mentioned lintian check. --Jeroen -- Jeroen van Wolffelaar email@example.com (also for Jabber & MSN; ICQ: 33944357) http://Jeroen.A-Eskwadraat.nl

We asked for your support to help Chanchal and Sonam recover from the impact of acid on their skins and organs and you responded with alertness. The target of collecting $ 2000 was achieved successfully.
In recent days cases of acid attacks stated getting reported by media aggressively. Only few days ago Preeti Rathi, a nurse appointed to serve with the Indian Navy, departed on June 2 after fighting for a month the horrendous effects of an acid attack. Preeti Rathi did not get any first aid for a long time after the attack at the Bandra Terminus. None among the many fellow passengers even bothered to throw water on the girl, which is the first and foremost first-aid in the case of any chemical burn.
Campaign's constant efforts to get the state government into action pushed them to shell out Rs 2 lakh to the family of Preeti. Her father Amar Singh Rathi chose to donate that fund to Stop Acid Attacks. As we do not want to deal with the government's money, we are initiating a fund called Preeti- which will serve as a treasury fund to provide immediate help to the people suffering acid attacks- apart from being used towards creating awareness over the issue.
We now ask your support in helping us create a fund that lets us provide initial support to a victim without waiting for the government to awake and act, as it did in Preeti's case, post her departure.
Stop Acid Attacks is India's first campaign dedicated to documenting the stories of acid attack survivors, connecting them to potential donors, helping them with medical and legal aid and effecting policy change in their favor. Of all these things, the most important for them is financial aid because they need lifelong treatment and scores of reconstructive surgeries. Combine it with the fact that most of them happen to be from extremely poor backgrounds. Some of them are disadvantaged in ways that we cannot even imagine. These women have no institutional support- governmental or non-governmental- available to them. Many of them are not fit to work before going through scores of reconstructive surgeries.

No panic says skipper
Vincent Kompany says City must keep calm and carry on after Arsenal ended the champions' 14-match unbeaten run at the weekend.
The skipper believes as one run ends, another begins and he is targeting a victory over Middlesbrough to kick-start a sequence that will continue against Chelsea and on into the spring.
"You want to win, always, so any result that's not a victory you are disappointed," said Kompany.
"But we've been in situations like this before and it won't affect the way we look at the Premier League, it won't affect the way we look at the Champions League or the FA Cup. We will just make sure we are better the next game.
We are always liable to kick off a massive run because that's the kind of club that we are. Maybe this run has stopped, but the next one should be coming soon hopefully
...Vincent Kompany...
Though some pundits are suggesting the title race will be as good as over if City lose their next Premier League game against Chelsea, Kompany sees it as the perfect opportunity to prove that there is still a long way to go.
Of the Stamford Bridge trip, Kompany says: "In theory it should be better for us now because we will be fired up for that more, definitely. We have always been great in games like this so I'm actually looking forward to it.
"I want to be back stronger for that match and to be fair, except for the result against Arsenal, it was a good game back. So going two, three, four games in, it's good for me and I've come back at the right time as well.
"We the same desire as what I have seen year in, year out and that will never change. We have been without Kun, myself, Yaya and David Silva for a long period of time and yet we are still only five points behind Chelsea.
"If you had said that to us a month ago we would have said, yes we will take it. It's good and there are highs and lows - that's what it's all about.
"The Abu Dhabi trip has come at the right time for us. The Premier League is relentless.
"We have seen all the images of foreign teams in Qatar and wherever and although I think it's the most special league in the world because we play over that Christmas period and that should never change, if you do get a chance to get out of it then it's not a bad thing."

A SENIOR orthopaedic surgeon at Westmead Hospital has called for the NRL to ban the three-man tackle.
Michael Johnson, who was Parramatta's chief doctor for 33 years, stressed each tackle in rugby league must be completed by either one or two defenders.
Johnson was talking after the horror and heartbreaking tackle on Newcastle's Alex McKinnon, who faces being left a quadriplegic.
And in a recent interview, another orthopaedic surgeon, Merv Cross, echoed the sentiments of Johnson.
"They should ban the third guy," Johnson told News Limited. "That is where the lifting starts.
"There should be two tacklers, maximum, in each tackle.
"It was only a few decades ago when there was just one in a tackle.
"You could have one (defender) around the ball and another either around the trunk or legs.
"Three in a tackle with (bad) technique is an accident waiting to happen. When you lift, there are going to be accidents like what we have seen with Alex McKinnon.
"If you are lifted then you're lucky if you come down on your knees, if you're unlucky, you come down on your head."
Johnson stressed NRL referees had to be strong.
"As soon as any player starts to lift he should be penalised," Johnson said. "Why wait until the player (being tackled) is at 90 degrees?
"That is when accidents start."
Cross said recently: "The speed of the game is extraordinary — they can't go much further. One way to fix it is for each tackle to have two defenders. Not three or four, just two in the tackle. That way a player can't get crushed by a third man.
"They come in late and hit hard in areas where the ball-carrier isn't protected. We have to look after the players. Sometimes they send three or four defenders in to simply crush the attacking player."
McKinnon remains in a serious but stable condition but is communicating with family.
Knights winger James McManus spoke on Wednesday of the pain and hurt of the past 11 days.
"It's a hard week and we got through it and it's going to be a hard year, but we've just got to keep pushing through it," McManus said.
"It was a tough week to be a part of, but to have all the support there and just the way the game was set-up with all that support for Alex, it did make it a really emotional time.
"There wasn't a dry eye in the huddle at the start of that game and to see all the Cronulla players all up and clapping together as well as the crowd. So it was a good game to be a part of and a good situation with all three grades winning, so it just ended up being a good day.
"It probably took a little bit out of everyone emotionally last week."
Newcastle play North Queensland in Townsville on Monday night.

LG phones store their phonebook data in a way that makes it easy to synchronise and in particular tell if an entry is new or just changed. It does this by attaching a unique serial number to an entry. If you edit the entry, this number remains the same. If you create a new entry then it assigns a new number.
For example if you change an entry name from "Lauren Smith" to "Lauren Jones" and a work phone number (such as if they got married and a new job) then sync software can tell it is the same person and not a new entry. Sync software can also tell when entries have been removed. This also helps distinguish people. For example you may know two people named Tom Jones and sync software can the difference between there being two people or one person whose details get changed.
The numbers are allocated by the phone, starting from one. Erasing all your entries does not reset it back to one.
There is some sync software (notably that used in Verizon stores) that does not talk to the phone correctly. It transfers entries to the phone, but doesn't do so correctly and leaves the phone with entries with a higher serial number than the next one the phone will hand out to software that does synchronize properly.
Later on, as other software such as BitPim does correctly sync with the phone, the phone allocates new serial numbers that overlap those of entries already on the phone. You then end up with multiple entries with the same serial number.
When reading from the phone, BitPim will detect when entries have the same serial number, list which ones they are and refuse to read the phonebook into BitPim since the data on your phone is corrupt.
In order to recover you must erase the phonebook on the phone using the phone menus to do so. You can do this by doing Settings & Tools, System, Security, (your lock code is the last 4 digits of your phone number by default), Erase Contacts.
You will want to make sure you have written down or have all your contacts information in BitPim or some other program. You can also get some data from your phone. When BitPim lists entries with duplicate serial numbers, delete all but one of the entries. Repeat this until the phoneback can be successfully read and then reenter the entries you erased into BitPim. Erase the phonebook on the phone and then sync from BitPim.
Why not make BitPim fix the corrupted data?
You are welcome to contribute code that does so. It was other programs that corrupted the data in the first place so they really should be the ones fixing this.
I can see various files on my phone and can hack things that way
That is exactly likely what the programs that corrupted things did in the first place. This is why BitPim always tries to use the correct protocol as intended by the handset manufacturer since that will do all the necessary updates and tracking of relevant files and information for that phone. We only directly manipulate the phone internals when there is no other way provided by the manufacturer, and are very careful when we do so. The integrity of the data on the phone is more important to us than only getting a tickbox for a particular model in order to sell the program.

DETROIT (AP) - The Michigan appeals court has thrown out a lawsuit in a Detroit bus crash that resulted in the death of the driver.
A passenger on the city bus, Jojuan Dyson, sued Detroit over his injuries in the 2014 crash. A Wayne County judge said a jury should determine the facts. But the appeals court ruled in favor of the city Thursday, saying driver Greg Cotton apparently suffered a medical emergency and wasn't negligent.
The bus crossed into oncoming traffic lanes, crashed through a construction barricade and swiped a building. The appeals court says there's no evidence to suggest Cotton knew he was ill but continued to drive that day.

The Agricultural Reference Index for Drought (ARID) is a newly designed decision support tool to quantify plant water deficit and predict the effect of deficit on crop yields. This study explored uncertainties in ARID associated with its parameters and the sensitivity of ARID to its parameters. Daily values of ARID were computed for five selected locations in the southeastern United States using historical weather data for a 30-yr period (1971–2000). Uncertainty and sensitivity analyses were performed using the Fourier amplitude sensitivity test. According to the results, available water capacity was the most influential parameter, explaining about 60% of the total variance in ARID, followed by root zone depth, which contributed about 30% to the total variance. Of the five parameters, runoff curve number and drainage coefficient had insignificant influence. The effect of the water uptake coefficient was negligible in most cases, and this parameter never contributed more than 15% of the total variance. Except for soils with large moisture content, ARID had small uncertainties associated with its parameters. Even under wet conditions, ARID mostly concentrated around its default values, indicating small uncertainties, which were mainly due to available water capacity. The type of distribution selected for the parameters was found to have significant influence on sensitivity and uncertainty. With a shift from uniform to normal distribution, uncertainty in ARID decreased by 15 to 50%. Results indicated that although ARID uses a fixed set of parameter values, it is applicable to a wide range of crops, soils, topographies, and management and has fairly small uncertainties.Please view the pdf by using the Full Text (PDF) link under 'View' to the left.
