[Charleston] June 20, 1788.
A gentleman for whom I have a considerable share of esteem has informed that he is on the wing for New York, and tho' I am much indisposed with a large share of fatigue that public and professional business have oppressed me with from day to day since the 12th of the last Month, I could not forgo his requesting being made known to one whose character he very much respects. He is himself a gentleman, and a Man of much worth. I shall be obliged to you for any attention you may shew him.
I hope the Friends of Federal Government may be as successful in New York, as they have been in South Carolina. We had a tedious but trifling opposition to contend with. We had prejudices to contend with and sacrifices to make. Yet they were worth making for the good old cause.—People become more and more satisfied with the adoption, and if well administered, and administered with moderation they will cherish and bless those who have offered them a Constitution which will secure to them all the Advantages that flow from good government.
Mrs. Rutledge joins me in best respects to Mrs. Jay and Henry to his young friends. I am, long have been, and ever shall be, my dear Friend,
Ed. Rutledge.

TWO teenagers were charged after a mum-to-be and her daughter were rescued by firefighters during a blaze at their Merseyside home.
Crews from Wallasey and Birkenhead fire stations were called to Demesne Street, Seacombe, just after 12.10am on Sunday.
Mum Donna Windsor stayed in the smoke-filled house as firefighters pulled her nine-year-old daughter Lizzie to safety through a first-floor window.
The 26-year-old, who is six months pregnant and is the older sister of murdered Wirral student Hannah Windsor, was unable to leave through a window and was helped out of the property after the small fire was extinguished.
Dale Guiton, 18, and Michael Guiton, 19, both from Demesne Street, Seacombe, were charged with arson with intent to endanger life yesterday.
They were due to appear at Wirral magistrates court today.

One of my favorite activities
One of my all time favorite activities in my math classroom is when my class gets to play Measurement Wars! Often times my 5th, 6th and 7th graders really struggle with measurement - customary, metric, ballpark figures - you name it, it's difficult for them. My kiddos also get very frustrated when they struggle. I've never taught Measurement Wars in a resource class before, so I was interested in how the activity would go...
So, my kiddos came in, and I had set the room up in groups of two with desk facing each other. I told them they could sit wherever they wanted but to choose their partners wisely (they know this means pick someone that won't get them in trouble or that they won't goof around with). One girl said, "hey this is how we sat when we played that one game with the fractions at the top" and then wanted to know if they were going to play the same game. I told them that it was going to be very similar except that they may get a bit frustrated. We talked about how the fraction cards had a fraction at the top so they could make a quick comparison and that this game required a bit more thinking and understanding. (Side note: I really like being open and honest with my kiddos about levels of frustration - I think being in resource is already hard, and being handed a hard activity without being warned only adds to frustration!) Anywho, we talked about labels (cups, feet, etc) and how it's very hard to compare two different labels. We also talked about how many times we can make ballpark comparisons with weird classroom objects (32 staplers vs 5 house keys) and sometimes the measurements are closer and we have to do actual conversions (4 pints vs 9 cups). I also gave them my NEW Measurement Made Easy posters stapled together as a resource for them to use
After I debriefed them, I handed the activity over to them - 1 group worked with Mass, 1 with length, 2 with capacity. Some of the conversations that happened next were AMAZING.
Students sorted their cards and started to play the game, and it happened. They flipped the first card and looked at me like "Mrs. R.... help?!" So I did just that... we worked on using the posters and making it real!
3.5 grams (that's about 4 paperclips) vs. 24 ounces (that's about 24 house keys) --- "Oh, the keys!" - "Yep! See how easy this can be?"
This group of three (had to do three b/c someone was absent and I couldn't be a partner today -- too many questions!) had one of my two favorite questions that turned into mini-lessons.
2500 grams vs 10 milligrams vs 40 kilograms. Instead of converting them all to grams (what most people would do) we went an unconventional way. 10 milligrams - a very, very small flake off of a piece of medicine. 2500 grams - 2500 paperclips. 40 kilograms - 40 textbooks. There was actually a debate between the paperclips and the textbooks. Surprisingly being head of the math department came in SUPER handy for this (see below)- why yes, I do happen to have 2500 paperclips in that crazy mess! So we used the supplies to help us decide.
We also used more of those goodies to help with another problem - 2.5kg vs 2000 pounds. Again, we went wtih about 3 textbooks vs 2000 staplers. The kiddos thought that 2000 staplers were heavier....another impromptu mini lesson! The kiddos laughed when I said "well let's see!" One even asked, "Mrs. R, do you really have 2000 staplers?!" I laughed and said no but I do have pencils. So we got creative!
I had the kiddos line up at the back of the room and I handed them a pencil and stapler to pass around. They looked at me like I'm crazy (I am, but that's a completely DIFFERENT post) and I asked which was heavier - a pencil, or a stapler. They agreed it was a sstapler. So then I asked, what's heavier 2000 pencils or 2000 staplers... debate occurred. I let them talk it out for a minute and they agreed that 2000 staplers was heavier. Then I had them stick out their arms and I placed the large cardboard box below in their arms. I didn't let them hold on to the box themselves (it was 30 pounds). Immediately they were SUPER surprised at how heavy 2000 pencils were. AND they quickly realized that 2000 staplers WAS indeed heavier than 2-3 text books.
After we had out little mini lessons, they started to get the hang of the game. I started hearing conversations like "15 pinky fingers is not as tall as a baseball bat, so 1 meter is larger than 15 centimeters" -- this made me do little jumps of joy! The kiddos were working on their own, and trying to think for themselves. It was such a victory for them... and many of them didn't even realize it. I can't wait to go back in tomorrow and hear the conversations that occur!

I love this idea. We usually compare measurement cards as a class but I love the ideas of doing it as a game of war. Your product looks great!

Tom Hudson is the co-anchor of "Nightly Business Report" on PBS, an accomplished business journalist with almost 20 years experience, and a Davenport Central High School graduate.
"My hometown had a huge impact on what I've been able to accomplish in my career, and hopefully what I'll still be able to accomplish in my career," said Hudson.
His keynote speech at the Davenport Schools Foundation resonated loudly with the audience of teachers, administrators, and board members.
"Oh, it was very positive," said Anthony Williams, president of the Davenport Schools Foundation.
The gala was to celebrate the foundation's 25 years of accomplishments, like the $50,000 they award in scholarships to graduating seniors each year, and the "Great Minds" program, which supports field trips.
Hudson credited his own path of success to davenport schools.
"I cherish my Davenport school education, it as curiosity, creativity, collaboration at a world class level, and it's something that we need to continue, and ensure that we continue, for the next generation to come."
Hudson dabbled into his field of expertise by talking about the national debt crisis, which he used as a segway to encourage the audience to start on a smaller scale, by focusing on students in davenport.
"Do what you can do to take this potential and turn it into individual responsibility, and then we'll be able to address those bigger challenges," said Hudson.
Even students found his speech to be inspiring.
"I thought it was really cool, and he had a lot of interesting facts that I never even knew about or anything," said Brittany Patterson, a student at Davenport West High School.
The president of the Davenport Schools Foundation told the crowd that their keynote speaker had waived half his fee to go towards the foundation.

The Synaptonemal Complex Component C(2)M Regulates Meiotic Crossing over in Drosophila
The Synaptonemal Complex Component C(2)M Regulates Meiotic Crossing over in Drosophila
Current Biology, Volume 13, Issue 4,

Correspondence: Kim S. McKim
Present address: Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, 1275 York Avenue, Box 109, New York, New York 10021.
Background: The synaptonemal complex (SC) is a proteinaceous structure that forms between homologously paired meiotic chromosomes. Previous studies have suggested that the SC is required for meiotic crossing over in Drosophila. However, only one component of this structure, C(3)G, has been identified in Drosophila.
Results: Mutations in c(2)M cause a reduced frequency of meiotic crossing over due, in part, to how recombination events are resolved. Cytological evidence suggests that C(2)M is a component of the SC and is required for the assembly of C(3)G (a putative transverse filament of the SC) along the chromosomes. Additionally, C(2)M localizes along the chromosomes in the absence of C(3)G. Despite having a defect in C(3)G localization, c(2)M mutants unexpectedly affect crossing over less severely than a c(3)G mutant. There is virtually no crossing over in a c(3)G mutant, but c(2)M or c(2)M; c(3)G double mutants produce a substantial number of crossovers. The appearance of C(3)G-independent crossovers in c(2)M mutants suggests that C(2)M prevents recombination in the absence of complete SC formation.
Conclusions: We have identified a new Drosophila SC component, C(2)M, that promotes the formation of crossovers. Furthermore, the appearance of C(3)G-independent crossovers in c(2)M mutants suggests a novel role in preventing recombination in the absence of complete SC.

The University of South Alabama has a new poll out in the first state in the nation (alphabetically). John McCain leads Barack Obama by 24 and Hillary Clinton by 22. These numbers represent slight improvements for both Democrats since USA's previous poll, but neither Democrat has a credible shot in Alabama.
Now, for today's pop quiz ... actually it's not a pop quiz at all, since there's no right or wrong answer -- just a discussion question. Today, in Gallup's daily primary tracker, Barack Obama holds his widest lead since the poll began, with a 10-point margin over Hillary Clinton.
If you had to put money on it, would you guess that in next Sunday's Gallup poll -- that's April 6th -- Obama's lead over Clinton will be more than 10 points, or less than 10 points?

Shortlisted, WA Premier's Book Awards, 2012
Growing up in suburban Perth in the 1920s, the two Durack girls were fascinated by tales of the pioneering past of their father and grandfather overlanding from Queensland in the 1880s and setting up four vast cattle stations in the remote north.
A year spent together on the stations in their early twenties ignited in the sisters a lifelong love of the Kimberley, along with a growing unease about the situation of the Aboriginal people employed there.
Through war, love affairs, children and eventual old age, the Duracks continued to write and paint - their closely intertwined creative lives always shaped by the enduring power of the Kimberley region.
With unprecedented access to hundreds of private family letters, unpublished memoirs, diaries and family papers, Brenda Niall gets to the heart of a uniquely Australian story that spans the twentieth century.
Brenda Niall is one of Australia's foremost biographers. She is the author of four award winning biographies, including her acclaimed accounts of the Boyd family. In 2004 she was awarded the Order of Australia for 'services to Australian literature, as an academic, biographer and literary critic'. She frequently reviews for the Age, Sydney Morning Herald and Australian Book Review.
'Brenda Niall has produced a graceful and perceptive biography of two extraordinary creative women. She treads carefully through the minefield of controversies about their family's exploitation of Aboriginal labour, as well as their own interventions in Indigenous art and politics.' Australian Book Review
'Through private letters, diaries and family papers provided by surviving Durack family members, Niall unravels a compelling Australian story that is just as relevant to today's social fabric as it was when it first began more than 130 years ago.' Courier-Mail
'A rich portrait of two complex and inter-connected lives...And throughout is the marvellous incisive Niall ability to distil, to capture the essence of a situation or problem, to ask the penetrating questions, to display sympathy and empathy but never to shirk criticism or to be afraid of exposing frailty. The individual portraits are beautifully drawn and very nicely contrasted with both the sisters emerging as their own person but yet with much that is shared...The book breaks important new ground. It is celebratory but far from uncritical and it confronts complexity on every page.' John Thompson
'Yet there is so much to admire and enjoy in this profoundly interesting biography. As a picture of Perth society in the first half of the 20th Century it is as good as anything I know. As a sympathetic portrait of the difficulty women as mothers had to be creative and absorbed in their word, it is profoundly moving. As a picture of a rare closeness between two sisters it is, if anything, enviable. Brenda Niall could not write a poor book. But this is, quite simply, one of her very best.' Canberra Times less

Infinity Intermezzo 2.6 loudspeaker Measurements part 2
Fig.6 Infinity Intermezzo 2.6, vertical response family at 50", from back to front: differences in response 45 degrees-5 degrees above tweeter axis, reference response, differences in response 5 degrees-45 degrees below tweeter axis.
In the time domain, the Intermezzo's step response (fig.7) indicates that both of its drive-units are connected with positive acoustic polarity but that, as is almost always the case, the design is not time-coherent. The associated cumulative spectral-decay plot (fig.8) is one of the best I have ever seen in any speaker at any price! A smooth, grain-free presentation should be the result.

This is yet another in a series of superbly engineered, high-quality loudspeaker designs emanating from Harman's Northridge plant. It is a tribute to its designers, and to the research and testing facility set up there by Floyd Toole.—John Atkinson

Kieffer Delp -- the boyfriend of "Teen Mom" Jenelle Evans -- was arrested for assault in North Carolina recently ... after allegedly punching a girl and her male friend in front of a convenience store.
According to the police report, obtained by TMZ, it all went down on June 16 -- for some reason, Kieffer decided to get aggressive with one of Jenelle's former friends ... and things quickly escalated, with Kieffer PUNCHING both her and her male companion.
According to the report, when police arrived ... the male was "bleeding heavily."
We're told Kieffer -- who's NOT Jenelle's baby daddy -- turned himself in a week later and was arrested for simple assault and assault on a female. He's due in court on August 31.
Kieffer had no comment.
Garbage reporting TMZ! This is possibly New York Times or Huff Post quality! Should I submit it, or you? Keep up the good work!
The definition of TRASH and WE the taxpayers are going to support these 2 waste of spaces...
Yeah, I've been wondering why the MTV girls hadn't been posting like crazy on the Lindsay stories? They're tied up will REAL winners I see!!!!!!
Idiot. Also, these teen reality shows are produced and filmed by idiots. American television is turning into ****.
Swear to the heavens above, Jenelle is trash and so is the company she keeps. The best thing for her child was her giving up custody. I hope she doesn't get pregnant with this loser's baby too. She keeps making her own dirt rocker bed, but that little boy, he didn't ask for such a shallow gene pool. Here's to hoping she takes the $$ she makes from the show and sends him far off to college!

"I was told about the castle by the marketing manager of a boat yard where I was having a yacht built in 2002. He was a friend of the aristocratic family who owned the castle," explained Christopher Pace, who bought the Castello Baronale as part of the property portfolio of Malta-based GlobalCapital. Chesterton Humberts

"The father of the family had spent 20 years restoring the castle," said Mr. Pace. "I went to look at it and just immediately fell in love with the place. It's absolutely magical, towering over a massive valley." Chesterton Humberts

"Within a week or two, we negotiated and I bought it," said Mr. Pace. "We thought we might turn it into a boutique hotel, but then along came the crisis and we couldn't have got the money from the banks." Chesterton Humberts

The castle dates back to at least the 12th century, although much of it is believed to have been built in the 15th century before it was bought by Cardinal Barberini, a nephew of Pope Urban VIII, in 1541. Chesterton Humberts

The fully restored and modernized 13,000-square-foot building includes nine en-suite bedrooms, a two-bedroom apartment, ballroom, other reception rooms, a theater, a library, a gym and a spa.

The smoke has cleared from Anonymous's Bonfire Night hacking spree with a denial from PayPal that it had been hacked.

This from Jesolins; BD, It is better not to power LEDs that can create DC noise through the power points that were designed for firmware updates. That and the LEDs will have a better power source if you solder a connector to the same points the lipo is attached to the FCB. It is a best practice and not that it won't work when you power from those firmware points on the board. There is just less that can go wrong if they are more directly connected closer to the lipo. Note also that the flight controller boards that do have LED connection sockets intentionally filter those power points with a Vreg or transistor to prevent DC noise from getting to the controller. Hope that helps. Cheers, Jim |

Ok, this makes sense. Although I admit when I get a chance to complete mine, I'm just gonna plug em in. I'm actually going to take some spare wire and random bits this weekend and practice my soldering. I need to improve my skills for the leds, and the fpv stuff I'm working on ordering as well.

Are all the direct drive 7mm motors the same? Can I mix and match 939 and ladybird motors?
I find the ladybird motors are actually cheaper than the 939 ones. Are they better or longer wires or something? http://www.banggood.com/Wholesale-7m...l?currency=GBP and http://www.banggood.com/Wholesale-Wl...6-p-49473.html |
Dec 07, 2012, 05:17 PM | |||
Hi all,
I finished up a couple of 8 LED Navigation Light Sets for the Ladybird. They consist of 8-0805 SMD LED's, 2-Red for Port, 2-Green for Starboard, 2-Blue for Aft and 2-White for Forward. I power them with my Low Drop Constant Current Driver (LDCCD) and solder it directly to the Ladybird's PCB for power. The entire light set weighs only 1.38 grams and when installed distributes it's weight so as to not affect the Ladybird's CG at all. I'm very happy with the end result. These first two are going out to a couple of forum members for testing, hope they give me good reports. I've posted this little video before but here's my Ladybird prototype lights on an early morning flight.
Also a few pictures of the Navigation Light Set and it's installation. Regards, John ImagesView all Images in thread

Very nice work 1Hammer...nice install. Makes mine look like a 'rats nest under the hood'. I need to keep practicing, using the absolute minimum of materials. Micro soldering is just part of the total package. The wiring and end result install is just as tricky...at least for me and my brautwurst fingers...
Dec 08, 2012, 02:01 PM | ||
The easiest way to explain my Low Drop Constant Current Driver (LDCCD) is as follows. It converts the voltage and current of the LiPo to a constant current and voltage suitable for the LED's included in the light set so the LED's remain a consistent brightness as the LiPo discharges. My LDCCD doesn't use resistors to reduce the voltage and current, resistors will shorten flight time as they use additional power to regulate the voltage and current. For the Ladybird 8-LED Light Set the LDCCD I've built for this application takes the 240mAh and 4.2 V of the LiPo down to a constant 3.0V @ 30mAh for Blue, Green, White LED's and 2.7V @ 30mAh for Red LED's. This particular LDCCD will work with 2S @ 7.2V and 3S @ 11.1V as well. Hope this explains the LDCCD somewhat. Regards, John |
Dec 08, 2012, 04:39 PM | ||
I'm an architect and building contractor by trade, it took me about 2 years to figure out how to build the LDCCD...I don't think I'm willing to give that up just yet. BTW, it's "Heat Shrink" not "Shrink Wrap", shrink wrap is what the box is covered with when you buy a new product. Regards, John |

Hey BD, you may find this page useful.
http://www.dimensionengineering.com/...ing-regulators I have a purchased unit that has a pot for a range of voltages out and uses switching for efficiency. It's much bigger at about the size of a thumb nail but can take a couple amps and under a tenner. I'm new to electronics so can't help on an exact schematic yet. I'm sure something built for a specific voltage in and out would be much cheaper and smaller What about those motors guys, are they all the same? |

Our Team
Take some time to meet our team:
Don Ancona: President
(505) 292 9800 x12
Don has over eighteen years of experience as President of two staffing firms that have received national recognition with Management Recruiters International.
Prior to becoming a Management Recruiters International franchise owner Don was an executive with a Fortune 500 company. He is an accomplished information technology and engineering professional with nearly 20 years of experience in that field.
In 1995 Don's entrepreneurial spirit got the better of him and he founded Management Recruiters of Chanhassen, MN. This highly successful company quickly established itself as a premier technical recruiting company in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area. In its first year the company was awarded the prestigious 1996 National Rookie Office of the Year Award. The company also was a member of MRI's President's Club, placing it among the top 25 percent of all MRI offices nationwide. In 1998 Don and his family fulfilled their dream to again live in the Southwest, moving to Albuquerque and opening MRI of the Sandias.
Management Recruiters of the Sandias, NM is located in Albuquerque and has been a nationally recognized office. In fact, it was a member of the elite Presidents Gold Club in its very first year in business. Don's company philosophy is simple: Partner with client companies and candidates and always do the right thing for both, always putting their best interests first.

Prior to working with you, we had hired two underwriters that did not have the skill set and experiences that we needed to resolve our operational challenges. You were able to bring us 7 new high quality candidates in one week, who we were able to interview immediately. All of the candidates had the credentials we were looking for and we were able to make a decision on who to hire quickly. Within 2 weeks, we had our new Underwriter hired and at work. She is working out wonderfully and I know that we would not have found her without your hard work and expertise. Thank you again for a job well done. We would definitely recommend that any other company work with you and your company!"

First off, the E62 oozes business; you get that impression the moment you open the box without ever having turned it on. The device just has that straight-edge look, that Finnish style that only Nokia can pull off. For some, that's a negative, but for others (read: anyone looking for an understated smartphone that doesn't scream "I can play videos" or "I've got more memory than you do") this will come as a pleasant surprise. Sharp edges and a uniform color finish off the clean appearance, and thanks to some metal bits, the phone feels as good in the hand as it looks.
Speaking of feeling good, the controls on a device of this form factor categorically make or break it. A phone could rock 1GB of RAM, a 12-megapixel camera, and a teleporter, but without an effective means of typing the old-fashioned way, it's dead in our eyes. For the E62, we're happy to report that the results are mostly positive. The thumb stick is hands-down the best we've ever used in a phone; we actually liked it, and that's saying a lot coming from a reviewer that prefers virtually any other method of directional control. The keypad was usable -- we weren't able to master it in the short time we spent with the phone, but we envision that we'd become proficient on it in a matter of a week or so. It positively spanks the keypads offered by the Q and the Samsung i320, thanks mainly to its uniform key shape / spacing and the softly domed tops. We found the space bar a bit lacking in width, and it would've been nice if Nokia had provisioned a couple more millimeters of height for the send, end, and soft keys, but none of those issues were deal breakers for us. The dedicated Messaging button and side keys were also welcome additions not found on your garden-variety Nseries device. The Messaging button is decidedly a nod to the phone's business user target demographic, but why can't we get some side keys on our N80? Huh?
Turning the phone on, our attention is promptly drawn to the screen. In a word, it's gorgeous. Yes, we know, it's only QVGA, nothing to write home about -- especially considering that Nokia's got several phones kicking around with 416 x 352 resolution -- and perhaps we're just not used to seeing the S60 user interface on such a large, bright, crisp display. Nevertheless, color us impressed. Despite being found almost exclusively on portrait displays, S60 adapts easily to a landscape orientation; we couldn't find anything that looked odd or out of place from the change, and the home screen looked great. Our apologies for the embarrassingly poor image quality here; we think we're starting to understand why we get sent so many blurry, craptastic shots of unreleased gear.
S60 has come a long way from the days of the 3650 and 7650. It's more powerful, easier to use, and more visually appealing, particularly on the powerhouse Eseries and Nseries handsets. Even in its third generation, though, the platform has its fair share of quirks. One of the most painful is also one of the most easily solved: "out of memory" messages. These have plagued every galdarned Nokia smartphone we've ever used, the E62 sadly included. Nokia, please: we implore you to put the proper amount of RAM in your phones. We'll gladly pay the extra $5 or $10. Granted, they typically only happen with moderate to intensive web browsing, but there's still no excuse to pack in less than 100MB of RAM in the year 2006.
That being said, the E62's productivity apps are sufficient and compare favorably to a Windows Mobile Smartphone like the Q. Switching apps can be a bit delayed at times with some waits as high as 2-3 seconds, but users coming from a Wizard (like the Cingular 8125) -- or pretty much any smartphone, for that matter -- won't find the speed unbearable. We found S60 3rd Edition's layout and icons to be prettier than Windows Mobile 5 and about on par with a current gen Palm OS-based Treo, but that's very much a matter of personal taste. What isn't as subjective, though, is the pure goodness of the E62's KHTML-based browser -- when you're not getting out of memory errors, anyway. It suffers the occasional rendering hiccup, but the way the mouse pointer is controlled via the thumb stick combined with the inline page thumbnail is simply brilliant.
As hot as the E62 is at first glance, regardless of the fact that it comes with all manner of Office-compatible editors, Outlook compatibility, and a decent email client, it's still a tough stretch to think that the average Treo or BlackBerry user is going to make the leap of faith. After all, why would the average business user want to throw away everything they've learned about Windows Mobile or Palm OS to switch to a different operating system that might (or might not) work marginally better for them? Instead, we see the E62 appealing to two groups: 1) Symbian devotees who dig the benefits (low price, good support) of having the phone be officially offered through Cingular, and 2) a new generation of mobile warriors attracted to the E62's design when the lay eyes on it in the store. Ultimately, it's the second group that's going to make or break Nokia's renewed push for American acceptance of S60 in the long term -- we've got our fingers crossed.
