XCP is based on the ASAM standard CAN Calibration Protocol (CCP). The first version 1.01 of CCP was standardized in 1995, the . The latest and current version 2.01 of CCP was finished in 1999. Though still used in many existing ECU implementations, CCP has some disadvantages, such as no timestamping . One disadvantage is that timestamping for measurement data is not available. Furthermore many details were , some features were not specified very concisely, for example flash reprogramming.
In the early 2000s, calibration interfaces were developed , which used microcontroller using microcontroller specific debug adapters (JTAG) or SPI, which were commonly available at available for microcontrollers. These interfaces provided much higher data transmission rates than the highest CAN baud rate of 1 MBaud and were attached to a calibration system (typically a PC) via Ethernet. Therefore, the need for an abstraction of CCP was recognized.
The initial version of XCP has been developed in 2003.It was designed for use in the automotive industry, primarily for the areas of ECU development, calibration and testing. Since then, the protocol has widely spread and is supported by many tools on the market, basically by . Basically all leading tools in the measurement & calibration area support XCP.
One reason Two reasons for the protocol's success may have been its stability and backward-compatibility. Over Over the years, only extensions were added, which do not break the compatibility to earlier versions.
Specification of the base standard features measurement & calibration, synchronous stimulation, page switching, reprogramming.
Specification of the transport layers for CAN, Ethernet (UDP and TCP/IP), SPI and USB.
The Addition of the transport layer for FlexRay has been added.
- The Adition of the A2L-IF_DATA description for calculation of the estimated ECU resource consumptions has been added.
The Addition of the base standard features ECU States, Bypassing Error Handling and Time Correlation have been added.

XCP can be used in all stages of ECU development, like function such as function development, ECU calibration and testing of ECUs. As XCP is able to realize high data rates and short measurement cycle times in the microsecond range, it XCP is very helpful when analyzing the dynamic behavior of electromechanical systems relevant for automotive use cases such as engine or transmission systems or electric drives.
A key functionality of ASAM MCD-1 XCP is to enable read and write access to the memory of the ECU. Read access lets , commonly called "measurement" in the standard, lets users measure the time response of an internal ECU variable. This access is also commonly called "measurement" in the context of this standard. ECUs are systems with discrete time behavior, whose variables only change at specific time intervals. One of the great strengths of XCP lies in acquiring measured values from RAM only at specific periodic points of time or at specific events. This allows time or event driven access, commonly called "event-synchronous measurement", allows users to directly evaluate the ECU's behavior over time with recorded values from internal variables and external sensors. This is referred to as event-synchronous measurements.
The access is address-oriented , which means meaning the communication between master (i.e. the measurement & calibration tool) and slave (i.e. the ECU) references addresses in memory. So, the measurement of a variable is essentially implemented as a request of the master to the slave: slave (i.e. "Give me the value of memory location 0x1234"0x1234").
Write access lets the , commonly called "calibration" in the standard, lets the user optimize parameters of the ECU's algorithms. This access is also commonly called "calibration" in the context of this standard. The calibration of a parameter is essentially implemented as a request of the master to the slave : (i.e. "Set the value at address 0x9876 to 5").
An XCP slave does not necessarily need to be an ECU. The XCP protocol may be implemented in different environments: . Two examples are either from a model-based development environment to hardware-in-the-loop and loop or software-in-the-loop environments to hardware interfaces that are used to access ECU memory via debug interfaces, such as JTAG, NEXUS and DAP.
The properties and memory addresses of parameters are described in the A2L-file format, which is standardized through standardized with ASAM MCD-2 MC. This means that access to a specific parameter does not need to be hardcoded into the ECU application. In other words, the ECU contains only a generic XCP slave protocol stack, which responds to memory access service requests from the calibration system. Different calibration and measurement tasks can be performed by different configurations of the calibration system without recompiling and reprogramming the ECU software.
|Floating box
XCP message format
The XCP packet itself is independent of the used transport protocol. It always contains three components: "Identification Field", "Timestamp Field" and the payload in the "Data Field". Each Identification field Field begins with the Packet Identifier (PID).
|Table Plus
The acronyms used here are short for:
The XCP standard commands establish and close terminate communication, identify the ECU implementation (version check), unlock protected resources, obtain the current session state, and provide read access to the ECU memory. In order to speed up memory downloads, the calibration system can cache the calibration memory and optimize the memory downloads by sending only the differing memory parts of a parameter set. This requires that the cache and the ECU memory must be identical. To ensure this, XCP specifies commands for calculation of memory checksums.
Read-Service based data acquisition (Polling)
The To read the memory locations of interest, the simplest way to acquire measurement data from the ECU is just sending is to send (typically) periodic requests by requests from the XCP master to the slave in order to read the memory locations for the measurement signals the user is interested in. The drawback to these periodic requests is that at least two messages are generated for each signal (command and response), and the acquisition time is not synchronized with the cycle time of the ECU tasks that execute the control algorithms.
Synchronous Data Acquisition (DAQ)
To overcome the these disadvantages of the polling mode, XCP offers the synchronous data acquisition mode. In the control flow of an ECU algorithm, XCP DAQ events can be defined by inserting a function call to the XCP slave protocol stack, which triggers the sampling of measurement data. In other words: The , to use this DAQ mode requires code instrumentation of the ECU code to be instrumented.
Note: The AUTOSAR specification defines the XCP BSW module which implements the XCP protocol stack and the internal routines to trigger the sampling of measurement data.
When the algorithm in the slave reaches the location of such a sampling event, the XCP Slave collects the values of the measurement parameters, saves them in saves these values in a buffer and sends them to the master. This setup requires that the slave knows which variables should be measured for which event. The slave obtains this knowledge this information during the DAQ configuration phase, where the master sends specific commands which define the requested measurement variables and their associated XCP events. After the completion of the configuration phase, the XCP master starts the measurement data acquisition, and the XCP slave sends the measurement data without further explicit read requests to the master.
An event does not have to be cyclic and time-equidistant. In the case of an engine controller, for example, it might the event might be angle-synchronous. This makes the time interval between two events dependent on the engine angular velocity. Singular events, such as arbitrary activations of a switch by the driver, are by no means equidistant in time.
The STIM feature is very similar to DAQ, it just but works in the opposite direction. Using STIM, the calibration tool is able to overwrite values of variables of the control algorithm in a task synchronous way. This feature can be used to implement a bypass, where parts of the ECU's control algorithms are calculated outside the ECU by an external bypassing system, see the chapter about "Bypassing" below for further information.
Due to limitations in the implementation of the XCP master and XCP slaves as well as limitations of the communication infrastructure, the achievable accuracy using the above mentioned legacy time correlation technique is limited. NowadaysToday, there is a strong need for reliable synchronization accuracy in the single-digit microsecond range or even below that.
The use of the second technique presumes the availability of an XCP unrelated time synchronization technique, e.g. the Precision Time Protocol (PTP) as defined in the IEEE 1588 standard (IEEE Standard for a precision clock synchronization protocol for networked measurement and control systems, Feb. 2009). In this use case it is assumed that the XCP slave's clock is either synchronized[1] or syntonized[2] to a grandmaster clock. In such a use case, the XCP master firstly first needs to know that the timestamps sent by an XCP slave are synchronized to a grandmaster clock at all. Secondly Second, it is necessary to also obtain the information, to which grandmaster clock the XCP slave is synchronized/syntonized to. This information is required to handle systems with more than one grandmaster clock. With introduction of the advanced time correlation technique, XCP nodes are aware of time synchronization carried out through well-established, XCP unrelated standards.
const volatile float factor = 0.5;
This code defines the parameter "factor" as a RAM variable with the initial value 0.5. During compiling and linking of the code, memory space is reserved for the object "factor" in RAM and the associated RAM address appears in the linker-map file. The initial value 0.5 is stored in flash memory and at the relevant location in the hex file. The addresses of the initial values in flash memory are defined by parameterization of the linker, but they do not appear in the linker-map file.
During booting of the ECU, all RAM variables are initialized once with their initial values from flash memory. This is The initialization is usually executed in the start-up code of the compiler manufacturer and the application programmer does not need to be concerned with it. The application uses the values of parameters located in RAM and they can be modified via normal XCP memory accesses.
ECU Memory Layout
The logical memory layout of the ECU (XCP slave) is described by objects called memory segments. They have Memory segments have attributes which describe the content and access type to the parameters, for example DATA+RAM or CODE+FLASH. A segment is described using the ASAM MCD-2 MC keyword MEMORY_SEGMENT, which contains information like name, address, size and offsets for mirrored segments. The XCP specific information is inside an IF_DATA section, such as page definitions.
Parameters which are adjustable by the calibration system have to be located in data memory segments that are physically located in RAM. Addresses of parameters and memory segments are logical addresses which may be mapped to physical memory addresses by means of memory management units (MMU). This offers These MMUs offer the possibility to adjust parameters located in a flash memory segment by remapping (using an address translation) to a physical RAM area. It is not necessary to change the ECU control algorithm implementation because it uses logical addresses to access parameters.
Page Switching (PAG)
XCP introduces the concept of pages which make the implemented address translations accessible for the XCP Page Switching service commands. If these services are implemented, the calibration tool is able to control the active page. If it switches a memory segment from a Flash page to a RAM page, a parameter located in this memory segment can be adjusted during the execution of the control algorithm, also known as online calibration.
|Floating box
Memory segments and pages
The access for the calibration tool and the ECU algorithm can be changed independently.
This access enables modifications of large parameters (e.g. maps) without jeopardizing the data consistency during write operations to the ECU memory. This consistency is realized by first switching the calibration tool access to the RAM page, then writing the data to the ECU and after that switching the ECU access to the RAM page. This solution requires of course, that the switching action is implemented as an atomic operation.
It has also to be mentioned that this Note: This concept depends on the ECU controller features and the XCP slave implementation and may not be supported by all ECUs.
The page switching commands are:
Set Calibration Page
Get Calibration Page
Get General Information on PAG Processor
Get Specific Information for a SEGMENT
Get Specific Information for a PAGE
Set Mode for a SEGMENT
Get Mode for a SEGMENT
Copy Page
Flashing means writing data into an area of flash memory. This requires Writing data into Flash requires precise knowledge of the ECU memory layout. A flash Flash memory is subdivided into multiple sectors (physical sections) which are described by a start address and length. To distinguish them from one another, each of the sectors get a consecutive identification number. The information about the flash sectors is also part of the A2L file.
The idea of the ECU States concept in XCP is to make the XCP slave status more visible for the XCP master during the XCP session. Using this concept the slave is able to inform the XCP master about changes of the ECU state in the XCP slave. It is possible that certain resources can have an active or inactive state. An ECU state describes the status of all resources. In consequence the status of the slave can change more dynamically and would be still visible for the XCP master.
This concept is very important for the use case that the ECU and XCP slave are different instances and the XCP slave can run without an active ECU. In this use case a specific connection between protocol handler and ECU exists.

Telethon strikes a chord
The mood was somber and celebrity little more than a means to an end when tonight's telethon, America: A Tribute to Heroes, was shown on every major network and most of the major cable channels. There was no audience applauding; there was no audience, period, except those at home. There were no introductions; that wasn't the point, as celebrity speakers made clear throughout the night by telling the stories of the many heroes who lost their lives and saved the lives of others.
To commemorate Sept. 11, a day that could easily be thought of as "the day the music died," talented and famous faces came together for an evening of songs, stories, and yes, the occasional call for contributions.
Telathon-ing Tales
The speeches tonight came in all varieties, all impassioned, some tearful, others awkward. A clearly nervous Jim Carrey spoke of Winston Churchill, then told the story of heroes who saved a woman by carrying her down 68 flights of stairs. George Clooney spoke of John Perry, a New York City policeman who'd filed his retirement papers the morning of Sept. 11, but heard of the tragedy and went to help. He never came back, Clooney said.
Cameron Diaz told stories of teachers who saved children at schools near the World Trade Center. Robin Williams talked of a hero who'd saved lives in the 1993 bombing and again this time, only last Tuesday he didn't make it out himself. Jimmy Smits spoke of police heroes, "cops who are willing to sacrifice their lives in an instant, for people they do not know." Julia Roberts spoke tearfully of heroes at the Pentagon, and the flying of the flag and the applause that greeted it.
Kelsey Grammer, who lost a co-worker aboard one of the flights that crashed, quoted words of strength from John F. Kennedy. Clint Eastwood talked gruffly of a day that would live in infamy.
Tom Hanks, Tom Cruise, Calista Flockhart, Conan O'Brien, Sarah Jessica Parker, Ray Romano, Jane Kaczmarek, Sela Ward, Chris Rock and Dennis Franz also spoke.
American Pie
With some of the biggest names in music on the bill, America: A Tribute to Heroes was bound to be good. Bruce Springsteen opened with a candlelit acoustic performance of "My City of Ruins." Willie Nelson closed the two-hour event with "God Bless America," backed by an all-star cast of celebs who had been manning the phones all night. Does it get any better than that? Cut the album; give the proceeds to charity. We're there.
Of course, there were those who pointed out the reason for the event in their songs. Stevie Wonder, who followed The Boss, sang, "Love's in Need of Love Today," with the rather pointed line, "Don't delay, send yours in right away." Wyclef Jean's version of "Redemption Song" was peppered with cries of "Brooklyn" and "New York City" and "we've got to full-fill that book," which he sang while pointing to the phone bank.
The much-maligned Mariah Carey sang the only song she could under the circumstances, "Hero," of which she said, "When I wrote this song," she said, "it had a lot of meaning for me, and tonight it has even more meaning." Well said.
U2 appeared from London. Billy Joel tossed off a powerful rendition of "New York State of Mind" with a firefighter's helmet perched atop the piano. Faith Hill, Enrique Iglasias, Alicia Keys, a bearded and shaggy Tom Petty (with requisite Heartbreakers), a cowboy-hatted Neil Young performed as well. The Dixie Chicks were spot on, and Dave Matthews did an impressive solo acoustic tune.
Jon Bon Jovi did "Living on a Prayer"; Sting dedicated his performance of "Fragile" to a friend who died in the attacks. Sheryl Crow performed, and Paul Simon sang "Bridge Over Troubled Water."
Robert De Niro, Jack Nicholson, James Woods, Meg Ryan, Cuba Gooding Jr., Whoopi Goldberg, Goldie Hawn, Kurt Russell, Ben Stiller, Penelope Cruz, Danny DeVito, Halle Berry, Adam Sandler, Mike Myers, Benicio Del Toro, Cindy Crawford, Sylvester Stallone, Mark Wahlberg, Michael Keaton, Brad Pitt, Sally Field and other famous faces were seen answering phones at the telethon bank or singing backing vocals on the finale of "God Bless America."
The stars also took the time to make a point about the evils of racism and hate. Several Arab children spoke of the tragedy and its affect on their lives, then Will Smith appeared on stage, with Muhammad Ali, whom he'll be portraying in the forthcoming Ali.
"It was hate, not religion that motivated the attacks," Smith said.
Then Ali spoke. "I'm here because of the troublin' thing that happened the other day. I'm a Muslim, and I've been a Muslim for 20 years…. I think people should know the real truth about Islam. You know me, I'm a boxer…and a man of truth, and I wouldn't be here defending Islam if it was really like the terrorists made it look…. Islam is peace."
Later in the show, Lucy Liu said "America's greatest enemy is hatred itself."
The telethon was Hollywood's effort to generate contributions for the September 11th Telethon Fund, which is administered by the United Way and guaranteed to be distributed 100% to the victims of the terrorist attacks on America last week and their families.

I'm coming back to Miami for another conference this week. Will still be staing in the Dadeland area. I'll have a car this time so am hoping to try some good eats.
Last time in SoBe, I ate at Ice Box Cafe and LOVED LOVED LOVED it. I only had two meals in the area so not much to compare it to. On this trip, I'll have time for a couple of meals in the area. Can anybody offer any suggestions that may be similar in price and quality as Ice Box? I don't care for sushi, Asian, or Italian and would like something Miami-ish. I'm sure everybody says that.
How is Balan's? I read about this in my Fodors guidebook. Worth it or not?
Also, I'll be spending a day in Key Biscayne. I read about a place called Bayside Seafood Hut? Is it worthwhile? Any other place for seafood (shrimp, fish, NOT crabs, etc) that is better? Preferably a local spot, clean, good food, casual. Or any non-seafood place is good too. Any good breakfast places around here?
Loads of thanks,

Jo Pavey is urged to prove she merits a place at Rio Olympics
Jo Pavey has been told she can still be selected for the Rio Olympics, but only if she proves she is quick enough.
The 42-year-old is aiming to become the first British track athlete to compete in five Olympics and on Monday was selected for the European Championships in Amsterdam next week.
Pavey earlier this month conceded she was "running out of time" to qualify for the Games in August, and British Athletics performance director Neil Black says she will only go if she meets the stiff qualifying criteria.
She must run 32 minutes 15 seconds to compete in the 10,000m in Rio.
"She's on an upward trend, but she's got to run a time which puts her into the top 24 (in the world)," Black said.
"If she doesn't do that, it makes it very difficult to select her."
Pavey has struggled with a persistent chest infection and Black acknowledged her efforts.
"She's bust a gut," he added. But there will be no concessions when the selectors choose the Olympic team on July 12.
Pavey is one of six reigning European champions selected in a record 98-person squad, alongside Olympic long jump champion Greg Rutherford.
Martyn Rooney (400m), Tiffany Porter (100m hurdles), Adam Gemili and James Dasaolu are the others.
Mo Farah and Jessica Ennis-Hill, who both won golds on 'Super Saturday' at London 2012 on the same day as Rutherford, have opted not to compete.
The pair, along with Katarina Johnson-Thompson, Lynsey Sharp and a number of others, have decided instead to focus on preparations for Rio.
Christine Ohuruogu, the 2008 Olympic champion, competes over 400m, despite missing the British trials with a virus.

In this direction, a series of N-1 and C-2 Bisphenylbenzimidazoles (BPBIs)have been designed in silicoas possible NNRTIs. On the basis of Lipinski's rule of five, compounds having drug like character have been docked into the active site of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 reverse transcriptase (HIV-1 RT) enzyme (PDB: ID 1HNV) using the software Discovery Studio 2.5. Analysis of the docking results reveal that all molecules form hydrogen bonds with amino acids Lys101, Lys103, Tyr181, Tyr318 and exhibit π-stacking interactions with Tyr181, Tyr188, Phe227 and Trp229 present in the non- nucleoside inhibitor binding pocket (NNIBP). The designed ligands have adopted butterfly conformation inside the NNIBP and form more stable complexes (total interaction energy found in the range of (-) 45.05 - (-) 62.54 kcal/mol) with HIV-1 RT in comparison to TIBO and nevirapine (NVP) (-) 47.70 and (-) 45.99 Kcal/mol, respectively, and thus, lower EC50  values are predicted for BPBIs.

I can remember making this many times when I was a child in Colorado. Once again this is from my Grandmother McDowell. She used to make this for my Mom, and the kids in the neighborhood. Use fresh snow, and make sure it is clean 🙂
Snow Icecream
This is a fun recipe for the kids to make!
- 2 eggs beaten
- 1 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 cup milk
- 2 tablespoon vanilla
- a dash of salt
Add snow to desired consistency. And enjoy. I realize some people may not like to eat raw eggs. You might want to try Egg Beaters, but you are on your own. I live in Houston, TX, so it is not likely that I will get a chance to try this one.Print Recipe
I also live in Texas, and no we don't get much snow, and not enough to pick up and eat, either. Try an ice shaver. You'll get close to snow.

Ottawa, FL (PressExposure) February 09, 2009 -- âSocial Networking is increasingly popular, and have become wildly popular with a varied demographic. The birth of the Social Networking phenomenon has seen a shift in the way that many people browse the web, and especially in the way that people interact socially. Bebo, Facebook, Flickr, Friendster, LinkedIn, MySpace and Twitter are among other plethora of Social Networking sites out there on the net. They seem to have become unavoidable, and spring up wherever you goâ sayâs Mr. Daniel of www.socialnetworks10.com
He added that, âEverything about Social Networking is based on the profile. People spend hours updating their profiles just to let the world know whatever they happen to be doing. It seems that everyone is trying to live as their own mini celebrity, and suddenly everyone want to know your intimate details on everything from your address and date of birth to your musical tastes. The desire to have the most friends, or the most hits, makes people scramble to get as many friends as they can, even if they've never met the person. They add a vast swathe of plugins while bloggers and YouTube video makers are all trying to score as many hits as possibleâ.
Each month there are billions of page views of 'Web 2.0' websites as people return time and time again to Social Networking Sites (SNS) like Facebook and MySpace, Social Media sites like YouTube and Blogger and Social Information sites like Wikipedia and Delicious. Cagora has recently launched the first Global Community Network consisting of more than 20,000 local and special interest communities that appeal to all generations. Cagora goes beyond Social Networking, Social Media and Social Information to provide Community Networking, Community Media and Community Information where Individuals , Businesses and Community Groups are all part of the same networkâ says Mr. Daniel.
Speaking on the move, Mr. Daniel said, âThe popularity of Social Networks has spurred many website owners to develop their own Social Networking website or to integrate Social Networking into their existing website. There are many reasons why you would want to build a Social Networking website or add one to your existing website. You may want to integrate Social Networking into your existing website to drive more traffic and expand your user base. Or if you have a company or group, you may want to benefit from a virtual pace to hangout, communicate, and share ideas, content, and files.â

A few weeks ago I discovered the wonder that is chocolate dipped potato chip cookies, and after falling head over heels for those I immediately started rifling through my snack cupboard to see what other snack foods I could bake into cookies. And while snack foods come and snack foods go in my house, one thing I always, always, always have on hand is popcorn. The kernels, not the stuff in the bag…real, honest to goodness old-fangled popcorn. And so I thought….popcorn cookies!
Because I am all about the sweet and salty anything and everything. I'm also happy to mix up popcorn with just about anything…I drop it into soup, I mix it up with caramel and bacon (of course), and I am perfectly happy just popping up a big mess of it and eating it with a little drizzle of butter and salt. So once the lightbulb went off, it made perfect sense the popcorn and chocolate cookies could be best friends.
So here's how this goes: you start with a basic light chocolate chip cookie dough…but when it comes to the part where you stir in the chips, you are also going to stir in some popcorn. You need to pop your own (and if you have never done this, it's as easy as putting about a 1/4 cup of popcorn in a plain old brown paper lunch bag, rolling the top down and microwaving it for about 2 minutes. You'll never buy those chemical-infused expensive microwave popcorn bags again!) Once your popcorn is popped, salt it a little – no butter though – and crush it just a little in your hands. Once the cookies are done, they are a perfect mix of sweet chocolate, salty-crunchy popcorn and cookie. Light and sweet and scrumptious.
Clearly I need to figure out a cookie version of pretzels. They are up there in my snack cabinet as we speak feeling all left out.
Popcorn Cookies
- Yield: About 25-30 cookies
- 1/2 cup soft butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 1/4 cups flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups popcorn, crushed just a little. (Make sure you pick through the popcorn to make sure there are no hard little unpopped kernels hiding in there!)
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- Preheat oven to 350. Cream butter and sugar until fluffy and pale, about 2 minutes. Add egg and vanilla and beat until well-combined.
- In a smaller bowl, mix together flour, baking soda and salt. Add slowly to the butter mixture, making sure the flour gets fully combined (scrape the bottom of the bowl to be sure).
- Stir the chocolate chips and the popcorn in carefully. Using a cookie scoop, drop tablespoons of dough onto a parchment-lined cookie sheet, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart. Bake for about 12-14 minutes or until lightly golden.
- Cool for 5 minutes on the cookie sheet and then remove to rack to cool completely.

The Dalai Lama thanked Prime Minister Stephen Harper for their meeting on Friday, praising Canada's political leader for his "courage," Postmedia News reported.
Tibet's spiritual leader is in Canada for the sixth World Parliamentarians' Convention on Tibet.
While there was some doubt Harper would meet with the Dalai Lama – given Canada's cozy relationship with China – they did speak briefly behind closed doors on Friday in Ottawa.
"He had the courage to meet me, so I very much appreciate that," the Dalai Lama said today after speaking to about 7,000 people in Canada's capital.
His Holiness told the crowd earlier to remain optimistic, CBC News reported.
He said that since he's shed his political role, he could now focus more on encouraging world peace.
"This century can be the century of peace," the Dalai Lama said, according to CBC. "We have to develop the concept of the oneness of humanity."
More from GlobalPost: Nobel laureates gather in Chicago
Among the notable names in Ottawa for the conference are actor Richard Gere and Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi.
Gere, a long-time supporter of Tibet, the Dalai Lama and Buddhism, is playing a very visible role at the conference.
He moderated panel discussions with world political leaders, and introduced the Dalai Lama to the crowd today.
"I don't think there's anyone like him in our lifetime," Gere said, CBC reported.
During his meeting with Canada's political leadership on Friday, the Dalai Lama encouraged Canada to pursue its economic goals with China, but at the same time praised the country's stance on human rights.
Canada plans to accept 1,000 Tibetans living in exile in India over the next five years.
"The fact the Dalai Lama was able to see the prime minister also proves there is great support from the Canadian government for the Tibetan cause," Kunsang Tanzin, president of Canada Tibetan Association of Ontario, told CTV News. "Canada's support for Tibet is very important for all of us."

Superstar Shahrukh Khan is undoubtedly the Badshah of Bollywood. But the actor does not seem very interested to do a Hollywood films. Shahrukh says that his role should be very powerful and should justify his acting, which is very difficult in Hollywood. Many film stars have tried their luck in Hollywood including Anil Kapoor, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Amitabh Bachchan, Irrfan Khan and Malika Sherawat in the past. But Shahrukh Khan does not want to take any offer just for the sake of doing an Hollywood film. The actor says that his role should make his country India proud.
Talking about Hollywood films, Shahrukh Khan told the media while promoting his upcoming film Chennai Express, "I think the kind of role I would want to do in a Hollywood film is one that makes India proud. To get a role like that is not specific to my colour, or the way I speak, look or act or my age, it's very difficult." "I mean you can't go to a big filmmaking world and say write a role for a 47-year-old actor who is brown, has hair like this, acts this way, dances a bit… the role should be something that Indians should be proud of. It's too specific for me to have a USP," the actor further added. Despite his shoulder surgery, Shahrukh Khan is leaving no stones unturned to promote Rohit Shetty's Chennai Express. In Chennai Express, SRK will again be seen sharing screen space with Deepika Padukone. In the movie, Deepika is playing the role of a South Indian girl named Meena. Chennai Express arrives at the theatres on the August 9.

I think there is a general bug in the way battles are conducted. For example we have the first two places Theo and Elax constantly attacking each other and getting Gold/Sheep/Defense/Attack the first two places each time. I am not saying that they are cheating but they are smart enough to exploit the system to the max.
I think this has enabled the first two big players to earn more than anyone else in this game (pearls... lots of them). I think this should be fixed asap since it is an easy fix to do!
The best way to prevent this is when I attack a base (win or loose) that base should be hidden from me at least for 24 hours! Any other suggestions might work as long as this is fixed.

Author has written 16 stories for Bleach, Big Time Rush, and Green Street Hooligans.
Well, I'm kinda gone now. You see, my writing has improved a lot, and I'll be very honest with you, I am so embarrassed of my stories and how I used to write. I really can't keep writing these stories because they're stupid, my grammar was awful and my punctuation was horrible. I'll keep them up though, because I did spend a lot of time on them and I put a lot of effort into writing them, even though I sucked. And if anyone wants to take them over, adopt them or anything else, feel free. You don't even have to send me a message or anything, I won't mind anyway.
Love and Peace,

I will be gone next week to go on vacation, so I'll likely not be doing any development of MM2 PTC during that time.
Speaking of which, I'm now at a point where one could play the game and do everything to the point just before running the Wily levels. The select screen, loading/saving, etc have all been implemented. so what does that mean? Well, for the main game, I believe all that is left is constructing the Wily levels, programming the Wily bosses, and implementing the end cutscene. There are a few things related to those that I have yet to decide how to implement, like teleporters (which may not even be available for custom levels). The editor still has bugs, mainly when exiting the editor and loading another custom level, so those will have to be dealt with at some point.
My new year's resolution was to get this project done before the year ended, and so far, it looks like I'll be keeping to that schedule with possibly some time to spare.

Today, I took a photo of a dead boring business jet, but right behing it, taking up the full frame, is the first plane of soon-to-be-launched new airline - which is the main reason I took the photo. This would certainly be a first for a.net, even if it's behind another plane. Since I didn't have ramp access, there was no way of getting a picture of it without one thing or another blocking it.
Would this qualify for priority screening? And if so, as my queue is full right now (due for screening in, I guess, 2-3 days), I take it, I would have to delete one pic from the queue?
While we're at weird questions: I also spotted an Hola Airlines B733 (EC-IOR) in Nassau today. Any idea WHAT it was doing this side of the ocean??? Unfortunately, I had left my scanner in the car when it was coming in, so I didn't get its call sign.

On Tuesday, SVT CEO Eva Hamilton used an opinion article published in the Dagens Nyheter (DN) newspaper to announce the state broadcaster would soon offer its entire broadcast line-up free of charge online.
While the change will allow viewers to browse through SVT's entire repertoire on tablet computers as well as smartphones, it also means that people who exclusively consume programmes and news via the internet will be covered by Sweden's TV licence fee.
SEE ALSO: Stockholm iPad 'magic' a surprise YouTube hit
Currently, anyone with a television receiver is required by law to pay the 2,076 kronor ($320) annual fee, which is collected and enforced by Radiotjänst, a division of Swedish public service broadcasting.
A representative from the agency confirmed with technology magazine Computer Sweden that SVT's move would mean the agency would start collecting the fee from people who didn't own a television, but did own a computer or tablet device.
SVT's Hamilton, however, downplayed the impact of SVT's move on fee collection policies.
"There has been a law in place since 2006 that states that a person who can access an entire TV channel on any device is required to pay the fee," Hamilton said.
"When (private broadcaster) TV4 put all their channels on the web last autumn that law came into effect."
Radiotjänst collects some 7 billion kronor per annum which is used to part-finance Sveriges Television, Sveriges Radio and Utbildningsradio (UR).
The TV licence system does not take into account when, if or how viewers use any of the channels or services which are funded by it.
Despite the move, the actual effect of the new licencing system will be negligible, as nine out of ten Swedish households already pay the fee. An estimated 97 percent of Swedes watch television.
On its website, Radiotjänsten includes most types of technology that can receive content, although it does not mention mobile phones with an internet connection.
While iPads will be covered by the new fee, smartphones will likely be exempt.
"The spectrum of mobile phones is so broad and we don't see their primary use as being watching a single TV channel," Radiotjänsten spokesman Johan Gernandt told Computer Sweden.
SEE ALSO: Spotify launches new app for Apple's iPad
Given the technological developments, Hamilton suggested that the state broadcaster merge with the educational channel Utbildningsradion (UR).
"With the technical demands we are facing on publishing on new platforms, it isn't feasible to invest in developments in two separate organisations with such similar production," she wrote.
Pooling resources, she argued, could also mean investment was diverted into higher quality programming.

Gwalior/Bhopal, Feb 8: The Shiv Sena and the Bajrang Dal have renewed their annual tirade against the celebration of Valentine's Day, wrecking preparations for it in Gwalior and Bhopal.
Shiv Sena activists burnt greeting cards and effigies symbolizing Valentines' Day celebrations and western culture in Gwalior. They warned residents to stay away from the festival of love. "We will not allow celebration of Valentine's Day in Gwalior," said Narendar Singh, a Shiv Sena leader. Bajrang Dal activists worshipped their batons at a temple dedicated to Lord Hanuman.
Their activists warned residents that these batons would be used to oppose Valentines' Day preparations.
"We want to spread the message that love and affection can be displayed on any day. Why only on Valentine's Day on February 14," asked Chandrashekar Tiwari, a Bajrang Dal activist.
The Shiv Sena and other right-wing organisations observe Valentine's Day as a day of shame and lust. In the recent years, countrywide protests, some of them violent, have taken place on the occasion.
Right-wing vandalism has become an annual feature on Valentine's Day, and activists regard festivities as running counter to India's cultural ethos.

COLUMBUS, Ga. – One of the main things that volunteers are pushing for is to not solely be focused on the presidential election but to also take into consideration just how important local elections are as well.
Volunteers and local officials with the Democratic Party gathered at the Columbus Field Office on Macon Road.
Dubose Porter, the Chairman of the Democratic Party of Georgia stopped in Columbus to deliver a very important message.
"These local issues drive the community but this national election matters in every household in Georgia. This is a defining moment for everything down the ballot," says Porter.
Columbus Mayor Teresa Tomlinson piggy-backed off of what the Chairman had to say.
"This isn't a game and sometimes you get the feeling about politics on TV that people think it's Dungeons and Dragons," says Tomlinson.
She also mentioned, when it comes to this election experience is key.
"We wouldn't let a surgeon who didn't have experience operate on us. We wouldn't let a pilot who had never flown before fly the plane we were flying in. So we need to look at people's qualifications. We need to look at those people who are ready to be president or hold other high offices in our community," says Tomlinson.
Tomlinson says Clinton will not only make history if things work out in her favor tomorrow, but she will also be the most qualified president to ever hold office.

After a disastrous weekend when Sam from down the road had stood our son up (he'd forgotten it was Divorced Daddy Weekend, and had to go traipsing around instructive museums instead of playing computer games at ours), and when Toby and Theo planned a mole-hunting expedition in the woods without him, Deminimus decided to weed out the stragglers in his group of friends.
"Like a panel, you mean," mused the Lawyer, "of friends, instead of legal firms. Giving them a good shake-up. Panel beating, ha ha. Could be tricky, though."
"I think it's quite straightforward," said Deminimus. "If they want to be with me, they have to get serious about it, and not keep letting me down and standing me up and putting me off." He paused, sent off course by this shower of particles. "And things like that. Anyway, they have to prove they want to be my friend," he concluded.
"What makes you think anyone wants to be in your group of friends?" sneered Subjudice. "I'm sure there's other little boys they could pal up with. What's in it for them?"
Deminimus pointed out that our house has a computer games room with Scalextric laid out permanently, and because the Lawyer needs small boys to partner him at violent computer games – all his adult friends having taken up grown-up games like golf – we are something of a draw for under-10s.
"And there's the cachet of being a friend of the captain of the first team," said Deminimus, who is extremely good at football.
"Yes, some people will do anything to get a good name on the books," said the Lawyer. "Well, my boy, you're going to have to stage a beauty parade. And don't just limit it to a few – invite everyone in your year. After all, you've got nothing to lose, have you? Make the little blighters work for it."
"Make it like Blind Date," suggested Subbie. "Get them to answer three questions."
"Yes, they've got to present to you," said the Lawyer. "Goodness, who'd have thought legal business would have such relevance to real life?"
And so last Saturday we had a procession of little boys coming to the house. They had juice and biscuits to lull them into a false sense of security, a go on the Scalextric and the Game Boy, judged by the Lawyer, who doesn't want any duds in the pack, and then it was down to the crucial three questions, compered by Subjudice, wearing an auburn wig.
"What would you throw on the fire in order to prove you're my friend?" was the first, which the Lawyer judged to be as relevant in getting at the truth as any legal panel interview he'd ever attended. Anyway, it elicited such replies as "my teddy bear", "petrol" and "my brother".
"Why do you want to be my friend?" was the second, to which none of them answered "unlimited Motor Crash IV", which was of course the truth, but rather that they felt they could combine their skills and knowledge with him in a truly synergetic way that would delight customers and shareholders alike, at which point the Lawyer had to go and lie down in a cold sweat.
The last was the real clincher: "What's your favourite football team?" Which they all failed, because Deminimus happens to support a minute village team where his granny lives, which is made up of pensioners, pub landlords and garage mechanics. By the end of the day, the panel of friends still had zero members.
"Mind you, the whole year knows about the computer games room now," said Dem, cheerfully. "They'll all be sucking up to me on Monday."

On Our Way Again
Salt Lake City Travel Blog› entry 11 of 13 › view all entries
We flew out of Pittsburgh early this morning, the usual plan for our trips out West. However, this time a few weeks before the trip, my mom had thrown a new twist at me: this year we were flying completely carry-on. I remember thinking "Yeah, right, that's not going to work!" Florida, all carry-on = no problem (shorts, swim suit, they don't take up much space). Yellowstone would require jeans and other longer pants, long-sleeved shirts including at least one heavier top. I have a feeling we were not the favored passengers boarding our flights that day with the full amount of allotted luggage but I will point out that we were within the limitations (technically, I think my mom's bag was even on the small side).
We had our layover in Vegas, an aiport I had visited earlier that summer on my way back from Mexico.
I don't remember much about the flights so I guess they went smoothly...
On the ground in SLC, I was left to guard the luggage while the other three family members went to pick up the rental car. The line was moving slowly (I guess there was some convention in town), so Dad and Meg dropped out of the line (left Mom there) to use the check-in kiosk. They got all the way to the end when it decided to stop processing their request. The car we did finally get was a neutral color, kind of a shiny brown/grey. It would serve us well.
Dad drove us out of the city with me navigating from the backseat when needed. We have done this trip several times now, and SLC has always been fairly easy to get around at least from the airport to the outskirts (don't know what actual downtown would be like...)
We got out to the outskirts/suburbs before starting to look for somewhere to eat since it was definitely past lunchtime according to our bodies. We settled on a Wendy's.
After Wendy's we got back on the road for the drive up to Rexburg. This trip would be different than previous times though. Back in Ohio I had started hinting that the kids could help with the driving this year; we were both over 25 now. My dad had mostly ignored the suggestion. Now though he let my sister shift into the driver's seat for part of the drive. We would continue to share driving turns throughout the trip and I think it really heightened the experience for dad; not only could he see more but he was not as tired from doing all the driving.
We arrived in Rexburg around dinner time. We were staying in a new hotel for us (the usual one was closed due to a bedbug infestation) but we still drove over to Frontier Pies for dinner and the dessert, yay pie!
After dinner Dad, Meg, and I went for a swim in the hotel's indoor pool. Correction: we stuck our toes in the pool, decided it was way too cold, and camped out in the hot tub for twenty minutes.

At full capacity, the unit will be able to ship 400,000 tons of construction materials annually, from only 60,000 tons. The facility has also increased Holcim Romania's construction material storage capacity.
"The new terminal enables the replacement of transport by car with the one by rail from the cement manufacturing plants to Bucharest, thus optimizing distribution costs and reducing impact over the environment", said Markus Wirth, chief executive of Holcim Romania.
Earlier this year, the company has earmarked €25 mln to the construction of the production plant in Campulung, one of the three units the Swiss-based group holds in Romania.
The investments of the company totaled €133 mln last year, €7mln more than in 2007.
The cement supplier has invested another €12mln in a waste processing unit. The amount was not included in the €33mln investment budget allocated for this year.
Holcim invested €20mln in two waste processing units at its plants in Campulung and Alesd, through Ecovalor, company specialized in waste processing, fully-owned by the cement supplier.

Midstream container operators join forces in fight for survival
Midstream container handling operators have joined forces to fight for their survival due to continuous pressure from shipping lines to reduce rates.
The operators plan to form the Hong Kong Midstream Operators Association, seen by the industry as a move to unify prices among operators and to increase prices later this year.
'Cut-throat competition in the midstream business over the past few years has forced prices down to very low levels,' a source said.
Wang Jiemin, who will head the association once registration is complete, said tariffs in the midstream business, which made up 25 per cent of Hong Kong port's container throughput, were at the same level as 10 years ago.
'Carriers are now asking for not only reduced prices, but also more added-value services at the same price,' he said.
Midstream handled an estimated 2.8 million teu (20-foot equivalent units) last year, down 6.66 per cent from three million teu in 1997, he said.
The decline was mainly due to the economic downturn, falls in intra-Asia trade and containers moving through Yantian and Shekou, Mr Wang said.
He urged the Government to consider banning Chinese self-propelled vessels - which use the tackle method of transferring containers in midstream - as it was unsafe.
The law does not allow self-propelled vessels to park alongside ocean-going vessels as it is dangerous.
This form of container handling, which makes up 50 per cent of midstream business, is about $100 to $200 cheaper per container compared with those operators who use barges and vessels with cranes for midstream loading.
Midstream operators also made huge investments in computerisation, refurbishment of facilities, employing extra workers, extension of service hours and staff training to raise standards.

Beautiful inside and out, Brightwork shines. Nicely equipped and ready to go around the world! John Deere only has 534 Hours! Completely new bottom and bottom paint, Zinks, etc.
Nord Heks history as est as the current owners knowledge is that she was commissioned by a Norwegian engineer in 1980 and was built in the Colvic yard in Essex, England over a three year period and launched in 1983. G.L.Watson the designer and namesake of the model also designed King George's legendary yacht "Britania" . The design company is still in business designing life boats but the Colvic yard closed a few years ago. The boat was originally named "Nord Heks" after a legendary Viking witch, meaning North Witch. The original owners sailed her through the canals of Holland and France, the Baltic, Mediterranean and Aegean seas then to the Canary Islands and across the Atlantic for a few years in the Caribbean eventually settling in Victoria, B.C.
Nord Heks was then sold and moved to Anacortes, WA where her new owner replaced the original engine with a new John Deere Marine Diesel and Ziff Drive in 2009. The engine now has 530 Hours time in service with recent oil and coolant change. It burns about one gallon per hour underway at 6-7 knots without sail assist. The electronics were also upgraded with Lorance GPS/Radar and dual fathometers. When the current owner acquired the boat he replaced the roller Furling with a new Swedish Furlex roller furling plus new halyards & sheet lines. They also installed a Wallace Diesel furnace, Life Line Batteries, LED lights, 12 volt oil change system, engine room heater, new cook ware, clocks and overhauled the wet compass.
This boat comes fully equipped with spares for every pump, seal, or o-ring plus spare vhf radio, auto pilot parts and lots of miscellaneous stuff, even the fuel tanks are full! There is also a Brig hard bottom inflatable dinghy with 4hp Yamaha outboard motor.

Government Health IT, September 8, 2011
The Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT has launched its Query Health project to come up with the standards and services to enable providers to send information requests and questions about population health to a variety of places where it is held, primarily certified electronic health records. Providers will distribute their requests through network data partners, who will deliver the query through a standard clinical information model and then securely return the results to the requester. The goal is for healthcare providers to be able to ask the data questions about population and public health, quality and research and learn from the information, said Farzad Mostashari, MD, the national health IT coordinator, in announcing the project this week. With the establishment of certified electronic health records reaching critical mass and an emerging electronic infrastructure, it is possible for the first time to consider broad uses of distributed population queries and other complex data activities.
