Snowmachine Park Proposed for KincaidSkiing association says snowmachines would be a safety riskANCHORAGE - The signs around the Jodhpur Motocross area in Kincaid Park are clear: No motorized vehicles in the winter. The Sno-X Lions Club wants that to change, though, turning the summer dunes into a winter playground for snowmachines. "The benefit is you get to introduce the young kids of our town to snowmobiling, and organized snowmobiling in a safe, controlled environment with rules. And you can teach them what's expected of them," said Dane Ferguson, president of the Sno-X Lions Club. Ferguson said the motocross park is the perfect—and only—place for a snowmachine park within city limits. "There was no longer any other property available within the Anchorage area to hold sanctioned, organized racing events and because it already exists as a motocross track in the summertime. Anchorage Nordic Skiiing Association members said they know most snowmachiners are responsible but with ski trails so close to the proposed area, they worry about those who don't abide by the rules. "They venture on to the non-motorized trails and especially at night, dark trails, snowmachines, small children. It's primarily a safety issue," said Executive Director Diane Moxness. Ferguson said he doesn't think that will become as issue. "I think with self-policing, singling individuals out if they become a problem and using temporary closures or the threat of a possible complete closure again. I believe self-policing would be a very easy issue." The municipality closed Kincaid to snowmachines in 2008 after a number of problems. Parks and Recreation Director John Rodda said since the proposal has been brought up he's gotten a lot of feedback on the issue. "It's extremely important everyone gets their voice heard. I don't know what the decision will be or if there will be a decision next week. I honestly couldn't tell you one way or the other," said Rodda. Parks and Rec will hold a public hearing January 10 at the Spenard Rec Center at 6 p.m. You have indicated this comment should be removed.said on Friday, Jan 11 at 10:23 AM Not a snowmachiner nor a skier, but after living here over 40 years, what I see is the skiers expanding there areas each year, excluding dog walkers, snowmachiners, horses, basically everyone except more and more skiers. I think they need to be reined in a bit. Inappropriate? Alert Us! said on Friday, Jan 4 at 8:27 PM Self policing...too many stupid people out there for it to work -- and don't care to follow rules. I'll just wait til someone is killed or loses a limb and wait for the hand-wringing. Inappropriate? Alert Us! Add a commentMost Popular

Charles Dickens: David CopperfieldCHAPTER 59. RETURN (continued)'Holborn Court, sir. Number two.' 'Mr. Traddles has a rising reputation among the lawyers, I believe?' said I. 'Well, sir,' returned the waiter, 'probably he has, sir; but I am not aware of it myself.' This waiter, who was middle-aged and spare, looked for help to a waiter of more authority - a stout, potential old man, with a double chin, in black breeches and stockings, who came out of a place like a churchwarden's pew, at the end of the coffee-room, where he kept company with a cash-box, a Directory, a Law-list, and other books and papers. 'Mr. Traddles,' said the spare waiter. 'Number two in the Court.' The potential waiter waved him away, and turned, gravely, to me. 'I was inquiring,' said I, 'whether Mr. Traddles, at number two in the Court, has not a rising reputation among the lawyers?' 'Never heard his name,' said the waiter, in a rich husky voice. I felt quite apologetic for Traddles. 'He's a young man, sure?' said the portentous waiter, fixing his eyes severely on me. 'How long has he been in the Inn?' 'Not above three years,' said I. The waiter, who I supposed had lived in his churchwarden's pew for forty years, could not pursue such an insignificant subject. He asked me what I would have for dinner? I felt I was in England again, and really was quite cast down on Traddles's account. There seemed to be no hope for him. I meekly ordered a bit of fish and a steak, and stood before the fire musing on his obscurity. This is page 952 of 1019. [Mark this Page] Mark any page to add this title to Your Bookshelf.

Video Interview with Esther Sternberg
Dr. Esther Sternberg, Chief of Neuroendocrine Immunology and Behavior at the National Institute of Mental Health, is internationally recognized for her research of the mind-body interaction in illness and healing.

To Keep or to Drop? | Tweet |
Written by Stu McDonald | |||||||||||
Friday, 21 October 2011 22:09 | |||||||||||
Most teams have played a half dozen games and we're getting close to the nine game limit where teams have to decide whether to keep or cut high picks or risk having their contracts kick in. Aside from newly drafted players, there have been a few surprises both pleasant and not so pleasant.
This new long-term contract strategy means a team won't lose a year of the player's service on the back end of the contract if they keep him in the NHL as an 18-year old. Nugent-Hopkins has played 17 minutes a game in six games and has four goals and five points including a hat-trick against Vancouver. Nugent-Hopkins leads the team in scoring and although only 170 pounds, has managed to perform well defensively and appears to be able to avoid heavy traffic. Yes, Edmonton won't win a lot of games this season, but unlike the pessimism in Ottawa and Winnipeg, there is a spirit of optimism in Edmonton because the team is loaded with young talent. Expect Nugent-Hopkins to stick.

Last month, the Michigan Unitarian Universalist Social Justice Network (MUUSJN) and people from three UU congregations took their big Standing on the Side of Love banners to participate in immigration reform press conferences across the state of Michigan. These events, organized by the Alliance for Immigrant Rights, helped kick off a national immigration reform campaign. In Detroit and Lansing, our message of love was welcomed by media event organizers. Another press event was held in Kalamazoo, where UUs participate in an immigration reform coalition called the Michigan Organizing Project. These events were covered by the Detroit News, the Lansing State Journal, a local CBS affiliate, and other media.
At these events, hundreds of supporters gathered to ask Congress and the President to keep their promises and pass reform in 2013. Faith, community, union, social service, and elected leaders called on the President and Congress to support these important principles in a reform bill:
• Keep families together through a path to citizenship.
• Grant visas for family preference.
• Reunits the deported with their families.
• Create a worker program that serves families, not just employers.
• Enforcs humane treatment in the border and detention systems.
• Promote racial justice and an end to all discriminatory programs.
• Establish an Immigrant Integration Office.
This is just the beginning of our advocacy for compassionate, comprehensive immigration reform in 2013!
This post was contributed by Randy Block, director of the Michigan UU Social Justice Network.

What's the Top Item on Your Christmas Wish List?
With Halloween over, thoughts turn to the Holiday season and the obvious question, what would you like for Christmas?
With Halloween over and children, and their parents, slowly making their way through all that candy, thoughts turn to the next big haul - Christmas. What is on top of the Christmas Wish list this year?
Technology is always a big one, as well as jewelry for her and tools for him. Another suggestion from Squidoo.com for the beer connoisseur, how about a micro-brewery unit? And for her, one suggestion from Squidoo.com is an electric corkscrew.
But for everyone there is always that one special gift, you know the one. The one you've hinted for, sometimes even asked outright for - the one you're going to be really upset if you don't get. It may be something big, but it could be something very small, just very special.
So what's the top item on your Christmas Wish List this year?

New Orleans Sun
New Orleans Sun – Headlines making the News in New OrleansThe New Orleans Sun is essentially a local New Orleans newspaper, but with a national and international perspective, designed to provide readers with a one-stop shop for New Orleans, national US, regional, and world news coverage, weather and sports information, with live updates on breaking business stories, and what's happening in the financial markets.
The biggest advantage we have is that we are an online newspaper, which means we are constantly refreshing our stories as more and more information comes to hand. Often when a story breaks the initial details are sketchy.
We and our sources around the world work hard to gather more information, verify facts, and provide a perspective of the major stories. Expert opinion often accompanies our articles to better inform readers, and provide a more complete understanding
of the news we deliver.
Financial markets and business reports are regular features as we pin down what's happening, and constantly refresh stock market indice readings, dollar currency rates, and breaking business news reports. Our world sports coverage is a priority, as is our regional news.
We like to think if you're looking for breaking news out of New Orleans, Louisiana, the United States, or the world, you'll look for it first at the New Orleans Sun.

Wolves hurt by Braves' pressure | Girls basketball
By JIM WALLER
Whidbey News Times Sports editor
December 7, 2012 · 8:33 AM
La Conner's full court press paid dividends early as the Braves defeated the visiting Coupeville girls basketball team 53-27 Thursday, Dec. 6.
La Conner (2-1) zipped to a 17-2 first-quarter lead as Coupeville struggled with turnovers against the Braves' pressure.
Coupeville coach David King said, "What really hurt us all game was not taking care of the ball. In the first half we turned it over 19 times and 35 total for the game. We are rushing and not being patient. Many of the turnovers were us just not taking care of the ball or trying to fit a pass in when there wasn't a place to make a pass."
After the rugged first quarter, the Wolves settled in and played even with the Braves in the middle two periods, trailing 28-10 at the half and 37-20 going into the final period.
Hailey Hammer scored 10 of her team-high 12 points in the second and third quarters to help the Wolves keep pace.
Lauren Escalle finished with five points, Amanda Fabrizi and Makana Stone three each and Bessie Walstad two.
King said, "Once we get more game experience and cut down on our turnovers we will be right there and give ourselves a chance to win."
The Wolves (1-2) travel to Cedarcrest (4-0) to begin league play at 7 p.m. Friday, Dec. 7.

Lime Fresh Mexican Grill's location in Clarendon has closed.
Ruby Tuesday, Inc., the company that owns the Lime Fresh chain, announced last week that they would be closing two Lime Fresh locations in the nation, one of which was the restaurant on 2900 Wilson Boulevard.
In a statement about the restaurant's latest earnings report, J.J. Buettgen, president and CEO of Ruby Tuesday, said that the Clarendon location was "determined to be outside our updated site selection criteria for the concept."
The statement also said that employees at the location may be offered jobs at other Lime Fresh or Ruby Tuesday locations.
Lime Fresh's other Arlington site in Pentagon Row, which opened in 2012, is still open.
What would you like to see take Lime Fresh's place? Twitter user @dpmckenzie suggested District Taco take its place. What do you think?

For schools across t h e s t a t e , though, it is a time to find individuals to fill the very big shoes of teachers who completed their careers this spring. Newspapers across the state have recognized a number of retiring teachers with stories that cel-ebrate successful careers. I hope you enjoy these thoughts from the retirees' own words. Their remarks are universal and rep-resent the heart and soul of the teaching profession. • "My proudest accomplishment has been and will continue to be realized anytime the students I have worked with become productive, mature, responsible adults." • "I had been surprised by how much I missed teach-ing… Sixth, seventh and eighth graders were the per-fect age for me… I found their enthusiasm and excitement infectious. They brought out the playful part in me and I've never looked back... The two years that I spent in the private sector were a blessing because it helped me appreci-ate how lucky I was to get to work with kids." • "I just feel that building foun-dations is a very important job a kindergarten teacher has." • "Over the years I have had many students who have gone on to successful careers in the visual arts. It is a terrific feel-ing when I get to see them and they have these great memo-ries from high school that they will tell me about, and they say 'thanks for everything.' It makes a teacher feel proud." • "When you're directing a play or speech and you finally watch a student get it... It makes what you are doing worthwhile." • "I encourage students to find a job they love — so it is a pleasure to go to work. It has been a pleasure to work with so many great staff members throughout the years." • "I guess what I'm really proud of is that when I look at my budget and the facilities and how we treat our programs, I don't think anyone here thinks, 'Oh, that's the girls and that's the boys.' We don't have that mind set. All of our programs are important. They're all our kids." • "Every year you're blessed with a promising group of young people. You just hope you... help them along the way." • "I have loved getting to see lots of our kids graduate. I always wanted to end each day know-ing that I had done what was best for each child." To each of our new retirees, best wishes for a happy, rewarding retirement. As always, we stand ready to be of assistance. Have an excellent summer. Jon Bauman Executive Director

(n.) After the first world war, the countries on both sides decided to band toghether to stop such a thing happening again with the "League fo Nations". However, the L.O.N. had no armed forces and when Adolf Hitler withdrew from in in the thirties, the weakness of this "Talking shop" showed through. Disbanded at the end of world war two, it gave way to the "United Nations", where member countries' influence on world events was measured by thier contribution. The contribution is generally based on the GDP of each member country, although the united states and to a lesser extent the united kingdom pay disproportionately more than other members for the upkeep, and also provide more troops.
To prevent world crises' in the future, the UN democratically votes to decide whether it should allow a country to sort out its' own problems or if they should choose to help a side. Being by far the largest group on contributors, the G8 nations choose to help the most western-friendly side in each struggle. However, certain amounts of ignorance to eachothers' ideas and division of peoples based on economic wants has lead to the UN having trouble maintaining itself as of late. That, combined with the actions taken without consent of the United nations council by the ... |

A good idea, but somewhat naive and inefficient. Like marriage and Communism, it looks good on paper but often fails in practice.
Formed shortly after the second World War, the idea was to bring representatives of numerous nations together in hope of discussing and peacefully solving whatever conflicts or disputes arose. They have done good in areas of Africa for example, but on the large scale it just doesn't work. Each nation is far too preoccupied with self interest to prevent any large treaties or organizations from being set up or enforced. Perhaps the most visible example of failure would be the recent Iraqi crisis. Some think that if they had stronger centralized authority then things could improve, but it's hard to know.

A group of nations whose purpose is increasingly irrelevant; whose widespread corruption is now coming to light. The corruption of the United Nations is growing unchecked. Can't wait 'till Annan tries to explain the "Oil-for-Food" program.
6. | United Nations | ||
An all-knowing, all-seeing organization which in allowed Iraq to ship all of their biological and chemical WMDs to Syria by having Charter members Russia and France drag their feet in refusing to ratify unilateral military action under the obvious guise of "diplomatic negotiations" AKA Food for Oil program
Then after the United States and ITS ALLIES proceeded to enforce 1441, they cried foul, blood for oil, etc. And for the icing on this cake, the UN secretary general now says that the U.S. engaged in a totally illegal military action. United Nations? Not since WWII my friends!

Dynamic Page on Static Site
I'm designing a new site, until now I've done my own HTML+CSS+JQ but I haven't needed any dynamic (blog-like) pages. The new site I'm designing is mostly static as well but I would like one page for "news." My original thought was to do the whole thing on Wordpress but I find it easier to do the Static pages by hand. How can I create the one dynamic page so that new items can be added regularly without going into the code etc?
You need some sort of CMS to do this as far as I know. I'd use http://getkirby.com, though. Much simpler and less folders you have to deal with.
Personally I would rather turn the whole site into a Wordpress theme. Building a custom theme really isn't that hard and you'll find loads of tutorials on it online. How the process usually works, and this is how I build all my custom themes, is I start building the whole site in HTML / CSS / JS and once that's been done, I start breaking it down and building the wordpress theme using that code.
Depending on the deadline of the project, it could be a nice learning experience. Knowing how to build custom Wordpress theme's is always going to be a handy skill to have.
check out http://pagelime.com
SUPER easy to add CMS-like functionality to an already finished site by dropping in some classes (cms-editable and cms-repeat which creates repeatable regions).
it's free for the first 3 sites and has some really nice features.
mr coyier did a tutorial on it a few years back: http://css-tricks.com/video-screencasts/74-editable-css3-image-gallery/
Thanks, These are all great answers.
@bonzai any good tutorials that you can specifically recommend, or just a good ole google job?
I like the wp.tutsplus.com website for Wordpress theme development, they have some nice tips and tutorials for it.


text: I love a weekend prior to a holiday! In my case, the weekend prior to a holiday means that I can get odds and ends done prior to the 4th and my upcoming travel! It's all about the perfect pot of tea (whether I sip it in the morning, chill it or add a little champagne to it) which starts off with my Breville. I'm loving Kusmi Tea especially in Detox which is a great way to kick off the day. Since this weekend is bound to be gorgeous, I want to be ready for anything whether it's a lunch or a night out so slip on this Missoni jumpsuit which reminds me of candy and all the sweetness that a weekend is meant to have. Pair this with Gerard Yosca with this fab necklace and pendant. Slip on Zariin Jewelry's Green Agate Gold. Round out the look with Givenchy and this large leather bag as it's perfect to store items that you shop for when you're out and about. Finally clad your feet in Prada to make your weekend perfection!

The House on Sorority Row [DVD]
Screenplay : Mark Rosman
MPAA Rating : R
Year of Release : 1983
Stars : Kate McNeil (Katherine), Eileen Davidson (Vicki), Lois Kelso Hunt (Mrs. Slater), Ellen Dorsher (Stevie), Jodi Draigie (Morgan), Harley Jane Kozak (Diane), Christopher Lawrence (Dr. Beck), Robin Meloy (Jeanie)
Mark Rosman's The House on Sorority Row is a mid-'80s slasher flick that has been largely forgotten, which is unfortunate because it's one of the better ones, an interesting and generally entertaining addition to a genre that is often characterized by a lack of creativity and mindless repetition. The House on Sorority Row actually has a story in addition to a lot of young people being killed with various instruments, and Rosman, who worked as an assistant to Brian De Palma during his creative peak in the 1970s (Sisters, Carrie, The Fury), gives the movie a few creative directorial flourishes and gets good performances from a cast of unknowns.
The story takes place on an unnamed college campus a few days after spring graduation. Led by the outgoing and prankish Vicki (Eileen Davidson), seven sisters of the Pi Theta sorority decide to stay behind at their sorority house and throw a graduation party, despite stern and angry protests by their much-despised housemother, Mrs. Slater (Lois Kelso Hunt). Vicki is especially hateful of Mrs. Slater, whose sharp discipline and general lack of good nature runs contrary to Vicki's party-all-the-time, consequences-be-damned spirit.
Things take a turn for the worst when, right before the party, Vicki engineers an elaborate prank on Mrs. Slater that backfires and results in what appears to be the housemother's death. The girls panic and, rather than call the police as suggested by Katherine (Kate McNeil), who acts as the group's conscience, they hide the body and try to go on with the party. But, surprise, surprise, the body soon disappears, and as the party gets going, the girls are killed one after the other by an unseen assailant who wields Mrs. Slater's sinister cane, which is capped with a brass bird. Was Mrs. Slater not actually dead as the girls thought? Did she rise from the dead? Or, do the murders have something to do with the hazy prologue set 20 years in the past in which Mrs. Slater apparently gave birth to a stillborn?
Rosman's script successfully keeps these questions up in the air for most of the movie, although the answer becomes more and more obvious near the end, especially when Dr. Beck (Christopher Lawrence), the doctor involved in Mrs. Slater's disastrous birthing episode, reenters the narrative. Still, Rosman gets a lot of mileage out of keeping the killer shrouded in mystery, but dropping clues as to who she or he might be. In this way, The House on Sorority Row is one of the few slasher films (along with the original Friday the 13th) that plays with the notion of the killer being a woman.
Katherine eventually emerges as the center of the story because she becomes the "lone female" left to do battle with the killer at the end of the movie. Kate McNeil is a good actress, and her performance allows Katherine to be morally strong without being a dullard. Katherine is also intelligent and resourceful, even though she makes the mistake of going into dark rooms alone a few too many times.
Rosman obviously took a few notes while working with De Palma, and he is adept at maintaining suspense even in the most clich� circumstances. He wasn't working with a large budget, but he crams as much style into the movie as he can, utilizing odd camera angles, interesting subjective shots (including one from a dead body falling out of an attic), and a good use of framing. Much like John Carpenter's Halloween (1978), Rosman is not so much interested in jump-out-of-the-dark scares as he is in allowing the audience to gradually realize that something in the background is moving when it shouldn't be. He also isn't obsessed with gore. Yes, The House on Sorority Row has its share of blood (including one girl's head that ends up floating in a toilet), but the shocks are quick and effective because the camera doesn't dwell on them.
Although largely forgotten, especially in the flood of cheap, interchangeable slasher movies that glutted the market during the 1980s, The House on Sorority Row is worth a look, especially for fans of the genre. It features a more interesting narrative than the run-of-the-mill mad killer movie (it is very similar to, and probably served as partial inspiration for, Kevin Williams' I Know What You Did Last Summer), which, along with decent acting and competent, if not creative, direction, marks it as being better than par for the course.
The House on Sorority Row DVD | |
Aspect Ratio | 1.85:1 |
Anamorphic | Yes |
Audio | 1.0 Monaural |
Languages | English |
Subtitles | None |
Supplements | Original theatrical trailer |
Distributor | Elite Entertainment |
Presented in anamorphic widescreen (1.85:1), the visual quality of the movie tends to vary slightly from scene to scene. For the most part, the image looks good, with a relative sharp picture and good color saturation. Flesh tones tend to veer a bit toward the reddish hues, especially in more dimly lit scenes. Some of the darker scenes are a bit murky, but this is likely a reflection of the low-budget quality of the original film, not the transfer. Black levels are solid in a few scenes, but in most sequences they are somewhat grainy and grayish near the edges. The print used to make the transfer was pretty clean, although there were some instances of dirt and a few scratches near the beginning. | |
The soundtrack, which is in 1.0 monaural, sounds very good. The soundtrack is clean and clear, and Richard H. Band's effective orchestral score sounds very strong even though it comes out of only one channel. Dialogue is always clear and understandable, and the soundtrack does a good job of reproducing the small sound effects that help create tension and suspense. | |
The only included supplement is a brief, extremely cheesy theatrical trailer presented in full-frame. |

Call for Papers
Call for Papers for the Anarchist Studies Network 2.0 Conference "Making Connections"
Call for papers for the ASN 2.0 Conference 'Making Connections' Loughborough University, England 3-5 September, 2012. Panel Stream: Re-imagining Anarchism in America: A Critical Perspective This panel intends to analyze the historical roots of anarchism in America from a critical perspective. We encourage papers that question accepted notions in anarchist history, and those contributing methodological perspectives that will allow us re-evaluate histories of American anarchism. By analyzing the various intellectual traditions of American anarchism, and events in anarchist history, we hope to reach fresh perspectives on what might seem like an established field. We want to create a necessary dialogue between critical analyses of the canon of anarchist history, and new radical ideas and perspectives. We are looking for papers that, departing from a historical point of view, will try to open new historiographical spaces in relation to particular topics or individuals inside the American continent. The size of the stream of panels will depend on the number of applicants, but the intention is to foster mutual engagement and collaboration. Some possible topics include but are by no means limited to: - Anarchist historiography - Radical methodology - Gender issues - Regional history - History of ideas - Cultural analysis - Queer studies - Race issues - Subversive politics - Art & Literature - Feminism - Anti-Racism Struggles - Anarchist aesthetics - Transatlantic networks Please send abstracts of up to 300 words (along with name and eventual institutional affiliation, if any) to Jorell Meléndez on firstname.lastname@example.com by March 15, 2012 at the very latest. Any questions should also be sent to that address

I am not really equipped with gaydar... a couple of my family members came out within the past few years, surprising the hell out of me.

Not that it matters.
I hope his choice to come out will not be something he regrets. - March 29, 2010 at 9:08 PM

You know what I really love? Both Ricky Martin and Clay Aiken came out because they felt it was important to live authentically and honestly and proudly for their children. Those babies changed lives in such a positive way- and those babies will grow up in a more honest and real environment because of those very brave choices.

My older daughter actually posted his coming out on her Facebook page; she was so happy for him. When my kids were all little we adored him and spent crazy family moments dancing to his music. I still adore him, and was glad my daughter did that. We just assumed he was gay and, um, that never made him any less hot. He seemed sad for a long time in interviews, so I'm happy he looks to be in a good place.

Also, happy that my childhood dream of marrying him (which began when he was a member of Menudo) was never realized. :) - March 30, 2010 at 9:33 AM

You are right, it isn't wise to criticize those who do not come out in a "timely" manner...we each have our own THINGS to work through.
And those babies?! Totally squishy! - March 30, 2010 at 2:10 PM
- ChiTown Girl said...
Well, I knew back in the 90s that he was gay. I'm just sorry that he didn't feel safe enough to publically acknowledge it until now. How sad that he's had to live with his "secret" all this time. It's amazing how much strength and courage one finds when they become a parent. Good for you, Ricky!

"Gangnam Style" Travels to Italy in Monday's Edition of "Over the Edge"
By: Melissa Bollero
Updated: November 12, 2012
Gangnam style travels across the world and a dress from "Wizard of Oz" sells for one large hunk of cash. Here's Monday's edition of "Over the Edge".
Tens of thousands of people taking to Rome's central square on Sunday to take part in a 'Gangnam Style' flash mob. The dance to the South Korean rapper Psy's hit song was organized by a group of event planners. The dancing attracted the attention of the traditional Sunday afternoon strollers on the main shopping street. "Gangnam Style" has been at the top of the Italian charts in the last few weeks and Psy's dance moves have become very popular in Italy.
Judy Garland's iconic blue dress from "The Wizard of Oz" has a new home and it cost a pretty penny. An auction house in Beverly Hills, California says it sold for $480,000 this weekend. No word if Dorothy's dress will be reunited with her ruby slippers. Someone also shelled out more than $33,000 for publicity images tied to the classic film. Other bits of old Hollywood were also auctioned off, including one of Marilyn Monroe's skirts, and a dress worn in "The Sound of Music".
Chefs in Switzerland assembled a dessert to satisfy any sweet tooth. They spent three hours sunday creating the world's longest cream cake, measuring about 4,000 feet long. That's nearly a quarter mile of sugar, flour and cream. Officials from Guinness World Records certified the cake as the longest-ever. It beats a 1992 record set in Belgium. Here's the best part, the cake was sold, piece by piece, with proceeds benefitting breast cancer research.

The Yarden Cabernet Sauvignon expresses characters of ripe dark red and black fruits, layered with notes of earth, spice, chocolate, pipe tobacco and a hint of fresh herb. This rich, complex wine is full-bodied, with concentrated flavor and a satisfying, long finish.
Yarden Cabernet Sauvignon is enjoyable on the young side, but should really be aged for a few years to get the most out of it. The wine will continue to develop and should remain in good drinking condition for a decade or more. This wine is best paired with very flavorful foods. One good combination would be with lamb short ribs braised in red wine, beef stock and aromatic vegetables.

This page show step by step how to use Roboteq's motor controllers along with an Intel Atom low power motherboard to build a Wireless LAN remotely operated Robot platform.
Roboteq's dual-channel motor controllers are particularly well suited for mobile robot applications. Their high current drive capability, native support for tank-steering, and their many monitoring and safety features ensure smooth and reliable operation. Their RS232 interface ensures an efficient direct connection to a PC compatible motherboard. Intel's Atom processor offers a great combination of very high computing power at low power consumption and exceptionally low cost. This article describes in detail how to assemble a Roboteq AX3500 DC motor controller, an Intel D510MO Atom motherboard and a mechanical chassis into a mobile robot platform. While most other Roboteq motor controllers can be used for this application, the AX3500 is proposed for its optimal drive current and its ability to connect and drive up to 8 RC servos. The Intel D510M motherboard was selected because of its 100% passive cooling, low power consumption, balanced features set, excellent performance, and very low cost. Other mini-ITX motherboard could be substituted. The robot is based on Microsoft's Windows 7 booting from a 2.5" hard disk drive. If the robot needs to operate in a rough environment, the drive can easily be substituted for a Solid State Disk drive. Other OS's like Linux can also be used in place of Windows if needed. The Robot described in this article will use a WiFi connection to send video, audio, and telemetry operation, while accepting remote control commands from an operator who can be located virtually anywhere in the world. WiFi Robot in ActionSee the first steps of a WiFi robot similar to the one described here. Mechanical Construction
This robot is made of an easy-to-build frame, using various lengths of L and I shaped aluminum extrusions. These extrusions are available in most hardware stores and require little more than cutting, filing and drilling. The two bottom extrusions that hold the motors require special attention and extra cutting to allow precise mounting of the motors. Assembly is done for the most part using pop rivets. Click on play below to see an animated 3D view of the chassis construction. Hardware needed:
Follow these steps to assemble the robot's chassis:1- Download the wifi robot CAD files. Parts and 3D assembly drawings have been created using PTC ProEngineer. DXF and PDF versions are included in the package. 2- Cut and drill all the L and I bars according to the plans 3- Position the motors on the left and frame. Cut the the motor axle on the unused side. 4- Screw the motors in place. Verify that the extrusions are at a right angle and tighten the screws. Insert rivets in the provided holes to strengthen the structure. See: Photo of bottom frame with 4 motors 5- Position the two battery holding rails as show on the drawing. Use the actual batteries to ensure that you have the right width. Fasten with rivets. Position and fasten the two small L shapes at each end of the batteries to prevent them from sliding from side to side. 6- Position, and fasten the two bottom transversal bars, and the 4 risers at the corner 7- Position and fasten the L bars to shape the motherboard stand. 9- Built the top frame by positioning the four L extrusions at a right angle and fastening with rivets. The top frame, which will not be screwed or riveted, will be placed on top of the raiser for easy removal. 10- Cut a piece of clear Plexiglas the size of the outer upper frame. Fasten in place using rivets. Tools needed:
Mounting the Electrical Components
Components Needed
Mounting Instructions1- Motors should be mounted on the frame before assembling the electronics. 2- Position the controller as shown on the CAD files. Insert standoffs and/or nylon washers between the aluminum bars and the controller. Make sure that the controller PCB is not touching any metal frame parts. Position the controller as shown on the drawing. Bolt the controller using screws and nuts with a nylon end to prevent the screws from becoming loose due to vibrations 3- Place the batteries inside the rail. If needed, add a strap to hold them in place, especially if the robot is expected to move over rough terrain. Note that battery models and brand may be substituted. Beware however, that batteries must go in pair in order to generate 24V. Battery holding rails may been to be repositioned if battery dimensions are different. 4- Please the 2.5" disk drive on the bottom frame as shows on the CAD file. Insert standoffs and/or nylon washers between the frame and the drive. 5- Position Power Supply as show on drawing. Mark position of the holes. Drill two holes and tap two threads. Insert riser. Place power supply and screw in place. 6- Place the mainboard at the desired position on the stand. Insert standoffs. Place motherboard on top of standoff and screw in place. Make sure that no pads on the motherboard PCB makes contact with any of the metal chassis parts. 7- The drawings do not show mounting hardware for the camera or other user accessories. 9- Drill holes and mount Master Switch, Motor Controller Switch, Mainboard power switch, and on the side of the bottom-right L shaped extrusion. Wiring the RobotHardware needed:
Examine and follow the electrical wiring diagram available here. Connect the wires and components as indicated. Below are a few useful explanations and instructions. Battery and Power Connections- The robot uses two 12V batteries wired in series in order to create a 24V supply. A 24 volt supply will ensure continuous operation for both the motherboard and the controller even as the batteries are partially depleted. Beware that the controller will stop issuing power to the motors when voltage drops below 11V. - A master switch is used to cut power to the controller and to the mainboard at the same time. It is safe for the motherboard and for the controller to have the battery charger connected while the master switch is on. - A two way switch should be used to control the power of the controller. Using such a switch, the controller can be independently turned off or on. - A power converter is used to convert the battery voltage into a stable ATX compatible supply. The converter will accept a wide input voltage range and so ensure continuous operation of the motherboard whether the batteries are fully charged or partially depleted. This converter also generates the voltage needed for the hard disk drive. The converter's 5V output is also used as the power supply for the RC servos that are connected to the controller. - A push button switch must be provided for powering the motherboard on and off. The switch can be configured to put the motherboard to sleep or to shut it down. - Connect a LED on the motherboard header that is provided for this purpose. The LED will allow you to monitor the status of the motherboard whether it is On, Sleeping, or off. Controller & Motor Connections- Wire each motor pair in parallel and bring to the controller using Fast-on terminals. The one motor pair to M1+ and M1-. Connect the other motor pair to M2+ and M2-. - Split the +24V into two wires and bring to the two VBat terminals on the controller. Split the battery's ground wire into two wires and bring to two of of the controller's ground terminals. RC Servos Connections- The RC servos must be connected directly to the provided headers on the AX3500. The AX3500 provides signals for up to 8 servos. - The power supply for the servos does not come from the AX3500. An external source must be used instead. In this application, the power is supplied from the ATX power converter's 5V output as shown on this wiring diagram. Motherboard Connection- Build a RS232 wire to connect the DB15 connector on the controller to the COM port header that is on the mainboard. Only 3 wires are needed to establish communication. See cable drawing. The connector 15-pin has 4 analog inputs, 2 digital inputs and 1 digital output of 2A, available for connecting additional sensors and actuators to the robot. - A 2.5" notebook drive with SATA interface must be used connected to the motherboard. The drive can be a regular hard disk drive or a solid state disk. - Add a WiFi interface to the motherboard. This can be done cheaply using external adapters that plug on the motherboard's many USB ports. You may select dongle type adapters or larger, more powerful adapters. The motherboard has a PCI Express Card slot which could be used to add a WiFi adapter. Installing and Setting up the Software
Software needed:
The robot platform is based on the Microsoft Windows operating system. Eventually a different operating system, such as Linux, can be used, but Windows will let you get a working robot in a few hours using commercial software. Software installation
1- Temporarily connect a mouse, keyboard and monitor to the mainboard. This will be necessary for the first part of the installation. 2- Install Windows7. You will need to temporarily connect a CDROM drive to the motherboard for this step. For more convenience, it is recommended that you do this installation of the motherboard on a bench rather than inside the robot. Install the drivers for the webcam and the wireless LAN card. You may remove the CDROM drive after this installation. 3- Set up the Wireless LAN adapter. Assign a fixed IP address to the wireless LAN card. The IP addresses must be in the same subnet as your WiFi router. 4- Enable the Remote Desktop connection server function on the robot motherboard. In Windows7, this is done from the start menu and right clicking on "System". Remote desktop will then allow you to work on the robot motherboard without the need to connect a keyboard and monitor. Launch Remote Desktop client on the operator's PC and establish contact with the robot PC. 5- Install and launch the PC utility on the robot PC. Make sure the controller is powered. The program will try to establish communication with the controller and report its software revision number. Change the settings to "RS232" in the input command mode and set the motor control mode to "Mixed". Save the settings in the controller and exit Roborun. You only need to do this configuration once. Try operate the robot by activating the utility's buttons and sliders through Remote Desktop. 6- From here on, you will no longer use remote desktop to drive the robot. Instead, you will drive the robot around by running the RobotServer utility on the Robot motherboard and the Roborun utility on the Operator PC. This configuration allows you to connect a joystick to the Operator PC. Drag a copy of the "RobotServer" program from Start>Programs>Roboteq to Start>Program>Startup. RobotServer is a small program that "listens" to the network and relays commands and data from Roborun running on the operator PC to the controller connected to the robot's mainboard. RobotServer will start automatically when the robot boots. See the user manual for more information on how to setup and operate this configuration. 7- Launch Netmeeting on both the operator and the robot PCs. Configure Netmeeting on the robot PC so it automatically accept calls. Call the robot PC from the operator PC and verify that you receive live audio and video. Operating the Robot
Follow the instructions below to operate the robot. Powering On- Turn master switch on. Remote Administration of the robot motherboard- Launch Remote Desktop on the operator PC. Creating Video Link- Launch netmeeting on operator PC. Place the robot's IP address in the address window and press the call button Remote controlling the motors- Launch the Roborun software on the operator PC. Shutting down- When shutting down for short periods, press the motherboard power button to put it to sleep. Then turn off the controller with its switch. Charging the batteries- Connect a 24V battery charger where shown in the wiring diagram. It is preferable to charge the battery with the master switch off but no damage will occur if switch is on and the mainboard is running. When using a 12V charger, connect the charger to only one battery at the time and with the master switch off. Power ConsumptionThe table below is an estimate of the Robot's current consumption when the motors are not running. The values are based on a 24V power supply voltage. Consumption will be higher at a lower voltage.
Improving your Robot
The Roboteq WiFi robot platform described here must be considered as a basis upon which to add functionality and intelligence. The Intel D510MO mainboard has sufficient computing horsepower to perform extremely sophisticated pattern recognition, navigation and other functions needed for truly autonomous operation. The list below is a sample of natural enhancement to this robot: - Eliminate the hard disk by booting the OS from an USB pen drive or Flash card. For further inquires

Double Barrel and Team Lift ftw.
what about the weather , could that material keep its form in extreme heat or cold? I can see that material melting off in direct sunlight if it was 90+ outside. and i can see that material snap in cold weather , my guess it will contract so much that when you want to change the seating or even opening the door , it will just snap. either way its a cool idea
what about accidents

ive always liked the bmw style over mercedes...
my mom has this car that i drive, i dont like it. looks like a chick car compared to bmws.
imagine in beige/goldish silver
the hobo goes rawr
well, i was comparing the somewhat sportier models.
or maybe i'm just getting old.
I totally understand where you are coming from, but I have always felt the people that buy Mercedes are just buying it because of the "oh snap that guys in a mercedes" but the BMW people know they are buying a good car and less focused on image.Originally Posted by noah lane
the car i posted is from 1998, but yeah its not a sport model
But doesnt the 3 series compare against the C2xx series? and the 5 series against the C3xx series?
mercedes have always looked more feminine to me, its the headlights.
the hobo goes rawr
that's actually an '03 E class
here is the pre-03 body style:
Nah, a huge number of people in the BMW community would agree with you - the guy in that video, Chris Bangle is BMW's Chief Designer and he has caught large amounts of grief for most of his designs (which started right about where you started disliking them).Originally Posted by noah lane
He's the guy who introduced all the hard lines, who created the awkward/disjointed rear trunk/deck design (aka, "Bangle Butt").
that would be epic to see in a crash though

old bmw's were nice, but i like the new designs too though.. MCBenz is ewwh to me..
next to that, i'm not a fan of them, but i think this concept is pretty cool
