We've just purchased our first home, and the bathtub has been painted! It is chipping and peeling off in big sections! I'd like some advice on how to fix it on a low budget, maybe I'll need to make some arrangements to have it replaced (hope not).We don't take possesion until April 16, so I have some time to do research.
Hi Amy, I recently painted my own tub & I would strongly reccomend not doing it yourself. We had a very old tub & just wanted to clean it up for sale & we needed to do at least 3 coats and it didn't look that great. It is very cheap to do yourself though. My sister had hers professionally re-glazed & it only cost $2-300 I can't remember but it chipped easily. Getting a new tub is your best option if you plan to be in the house for a long time but depending on the age of your house you could be opening up another can of worms too, what the subfloor looks like underneath, etc.
Hi Amy, just a note to say a porcelain tubs cannot be re-glazed, ie more porcelain put on. All the restoration products involve recoating, either by mechanical bond or by chemical bond. Re-glazing would involve "firing" the tub. I'm not against the professional method, but realize that they are also recoating your tub....maybe with a better material?
Hi Amy79, Sounds like the paint job wasn't done properly. There are paint kits called Klenk's Epoxy available in white, bone and a few other colours. You'll find them at your building supply or paint store. It is a two component paint product. You'll need to scrape and sand all of the loose paint off of the tub and clean the tub really well before painting. It's a smelly, industrial type paint, but it will do the job. Have a look at the instructions on the package before you decide whether to go ahead. Your other option is to call a professional bathtub restoration company that could reglaze the tub for you. Good luck.

- " Cozy and atmospheric hostel in the heart of Babilonia. Pretty good facilities, but no breakfast included. Only 15min away from Copacabana/Leme beach, but climbing uphill is steep (when feeling lazy, you can get a cheap moto taxi). Very friendly and helpful staff with good english skill. Neighborhood is a favela, but felt safe. Hostel is quite clean but a little worn down, which only adds to the atmosphere. Bring earplugs if u wanna sleep tight, lots of party around! Great views from the balcony! "

- " Ana was a great and very helpful hostess. The terrace on the roof is amazing, and the location very good. All in all it's a simple, but very nice hostel - especially for that price. "
- 30 Nov 2013 Anonymous Germany
- " Don`t be scared when you get there for the first time. Yes, it`s in the favela but the neighborhood is safe and very friendly. The location is excellent (up to 10min to Copacabana beach and bus stops) and the staff and atmosphere are really great. Highly recommended especially for young people. If you don`t expect a luxury hotel, this is the right place to stay in Rio. "

{%Alvin}, {%Simon}, and {%Theodore} meet their musical match after returning to school and entering into a battle of the bands competition in hopes of saving the school's troubled music program. Sent to live with {%Dave Seville}'s younger nephew {%Toby} ({$Zachary Levi}), the three lovable marmots decide that getting an education is more important than belting out {\pop} tunes. But the school's music program is about to go belly up, and the only way to save it is to win the 25,000-dollar prize in the upcoming battle of the bands. Though the Chipmunks are confident they have the songwriting skills to steamroll the competition, a newly formed singing trio dubbed the Chippettes promises to give them some stiff competition on-stage. {%Brittany}, {%Eleanor}, and {%Jeanette} are indeed the real deal, and the closer the competition gets, the more {%Alvin}, {%Simon}, and {%Theodore} realize that in order to win, they'll have to give it everything they've got. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Our Sunday tradition entails that my hubby make waffles for me and the boys (3 and 5). We tried this recipe this morning and it was the BEST waffles he's made by far! This recipe is from Moosewood Resturant and is listed exactly as they wrote it. Here are my adaptions: We omitted the walnuts due to allergies. We used all unbleached flour. We decreased the soy milk by 1/3 cup and added a glob of vanilla yogurt instead. We used sugar instead of maple syrup. Lastly, we doubled the recipe for the four of us because we love leftovers for the next morning! (though I only added one tbsp of oil instead of two) This could be used for pancakes also. Follow-up: since posting this recipe, I tried as pancakes. While the taste was good, I prefer the waffles.

Justin Verlander's Insane Season
Posted 31 August 2011 - 05:28 PM
So, considering all of that, why is his ERA+ just 167? Is Comerica Park really pitcher friendly or something?
Posted 31 August 2011 - 06:13 PM
Posted 31 August 2011 - 09:08 PM
I was lucky enough to get both Weaver and Haren in my draft. Weaver actually fell to the third round so I've been alright, but Posey going down really killed me.Dude. He is killing for my fantasy team. So was Josh Johnson...sigh. For real though, Verlander is killing.
Posted 01 September 2011 - 04:46 AM
Here is the details behind the aforementioned Park Factor. Be prepared to get PTSD-style flashbacks to your high school math classes.
With the AL league-average ERA being 4.01 and Verlander sporting a 2.38, it looks like that results in a 167 ERA+. I'm with you, as I fully believed his ERA+ to be much higher. Maybe there is something else being factored in that we aren't aware of. . .
The MVP discussion should be an interesting one indeed. Sabremetricians will point to Bautista leading MLB in so many standard categories (HR, walks, OBP, SLG, OPS), advanced categories (Runs Created, Batting Wins Created, WAR, Win Proability Added), and other cool categories (best soul patch, best at a staring contest). Granderson is having an outstanding season and fits into the more old-school "best player on arguably the best team in the AL" mold. Boston has Adrian Gonzalez, Dustin Pedroia and Jacoby Ellsbury all playing at MVP levels in many respects (even though they are probably hurting their own causes by being on the same team).
Verlander definitely makes things interesting. He has the most wins, innings pitched, and strikeouts in ALL of MLB. That WHIP is scary good. As Brett pointed out, his season is bordering on historic. So what happens if he wins 24 or 25? What if Jered Weaver has another rough start or two and Verlander snatches the league ERA title? His Baseball-Reference WAR ranks him second in the league only to Bautista. It will really be exciting to see what happens down the stretch.
He is the reason that the Detroit Tigers win that division. Take him out of the rotation and they are a .500 team at best.
Posted 02 September 2011 - 12:27 PM
Posted 02 September 2011 - 02:35 PM
His latest Grantland mailbag:
I think MVP races are going to be affected more and more by advanced statistics, regardless of position, especially as more forward-thinking and youthful writers get votes.
Makes you look at Pedro Martinez in 1999 and think, "How the he'll did he not win the MVP that year?"
Posted 02 September 2011 - 04:00 PM
Posted 02 September 2011 - 05:15 PM
The only problem I have with starters winning most valuable player is that they only affect the outcome of one out of every 5 games. I do think it's possible for a starter to have an MVP season, but with the way Adrian Gonzalez, Curtis Granderson, and Jose Bautista are playing, I don't think it will happen this year. Gonzalez has been better than adverised, Granderson has carried the Yankees offensively and defensively at times this year, and Jose Bautista is just ridiculous(probably the only reason I think LaHair should get a good look). If Verlander was in the NL, I think he would have a legitimate shot, but in the AL, I think he's toast.
Yeah, but they affect some 50% of the plays in those 1 in 5 games. That puts them (well, at least pitchers who, like Verlander, consistently throw 7, 8, 9 innings) at impacting as many as 1 in every 10 plays. And that's not just fielding a grounder or catching a pop fly.
What would that ratio be for a position player? It's 1 in 18 at the dish, and, depending on his position, another 1 in 20 in the field (remember, you have to count both teams)?
I think the "only plays 1 in 5 games" argument can be blown up this way.
Posted 02 September 2011 - 07:21 PM
In 2003 Eric Gagne had an ERA+ of 337, but couldn't get higher than 6th in MVP voting.
Or, pick a season for Pedro, almost any season. In '97 (his last with the Expos) he pitched 241.1 innings (13 CG) with a 1.90 era. He did win the Cy Young, but somehow finished 16th in MVP voting, Maddux and Schilling both finished higher in the MVP. He also came in behind the immortal Edgardo Alfonzo and his incredible .823 OPS. Everyone knows he was boned in '99 and (to a lesser extent) 2000.
I think the only way to get the voters to look past the "1 in 5" problem with starting pitchers is to return to a 4-man rotation. If a guy like Verlander goes out there every 4 days, makes 41 starts and pitches something like 280 innings, MVP voters will have to give some respect.

Porting RTOS Device Drivers to Embedded Linux
Linux has taken the embedded marketplace by storm. According to industry analysts, one-third to one-half of new embedded 32- and 64-bit designs employ Linux. Embedded Linux already dominates multiple application spaces, including SOHO networking and imaging/multifunction peripherals, and it now is making vast strides in storage (NAS/SAN), digital home entertainment (HDTV/PVR/DVR/STB) and handheld/wireless, especially in digital mobile phones.
New embedded Linux applications do not spring, Minerva-like, from the heads of developers; a majority of projects must accommodate thousands, even millions of lines of legacy source code. Although hundreds of embedded projects have successfully ported existing code from such platforms as Wind River's VxWorks and pSOS, VRTX, Nucleus and other RTOSes to Linux, the exercise is still nontrivial.
To date, the majority of literature on migration from legacy RTOS applications to embedded Linux has focused on RTOS APIs, tasking and scheduling models and how they map to Linux user-space equivalents. Equally important in the I/O-intensive sphere of embedded programming is porting RTOS application hardware interface code to the more formal Linux device driver model.
This article surveys several common approaches to memory-mapped I/O frequently found in legacy embedded applications. These range from ad hoc use of interrupt service routines (ISRs) and user-thread hardware access to the semi-formal driver models found in some RTOS repertoires. It also presents heuristics and methodologies for transforming RTOS code into well-formed Linux device drivers. In particular, the article focuses on memory mapping in RTOS code vs. Linux, porting queue-based I/O schemes and redefining RTOS I/O for native Linux drivers and dæmons.
The word that best describes most I/O in RTOS-based systems is informal. Most RTOSes were designed for older MMU-less CPUs, so they ignore memory management even when an MMU is present and make no distinction between logical and physical addressing. Most RTOSes also execute entirely in privileged state (system mode), ostensibly to enhance performance. As such, all RTOS application and system code has access to the entire machine address space, memory-mapped devices and I/O instructions. Indeed, it is very difficult to distinguish RTOS application code from driver code even when such distinctions exist.
This informal architecture leads to ad hoc implementations of I/O and, in many cases, the complete absence of a recognizable device driver model. In light of this egalitarian non-partitioning of work, it is instructive to review a few key concepts and practices as they apply to RTOS-based software.
When commercial RTOS products became available in the mid-1980s, most embedded software consisted of big mainline loops with polled I/O and ISRs for time-critical operations. Developers designed RTOSes and executives into their projects mostly to enhance concurrency and aid in synchronization of multitasking, but they eschewed any other constructs that got in the way. As such, even when an RTOS offered I/O formalisms, embedded programmers continued to perform I/O in-line:
#define DATA_REGISTER 0xF00000F5 char getchar(void) { return (*((char *) DATA_REGISTER)); } void putchar(char c) { *((char *) DATA_REGISTER) = c; }
More disciplined developers usually segregate all such in-line I/O code from hardware-independent code, but I have encountered plenty of I/O spaghetti as well. When faced with pervasive in-line memory-mapped I/O usage, embedded developers who are new to Linux always face the temptation to port all such code as-is to user space, converting the #define of register addresses to calls to mmap(). This approach works fine for some types of prototyping, but it cannot support interrupt processing, has limited real-time responsiveness, is not particularly secure and is not suitable for commercial deployment.
In Linux, interrupt service is exclusively the domain of the kernel. With an RTOS, ISR code is free-form and often indistinguishable from application code, other than in the return sequence. Many RTOSes offer a system call or macro that lets code detect its own context, such as the Wind River VxWorks intContext(). Common also is the use of standard libraries by ISRs, with accompanying reentrancy and portability challenges.
Most RTOSes support the registration of ISR code and handle interrupt arbitration and ISR dispatch. Some primitive embedded executives, however, support only direct insertion of ISR start addresses into hardware vector tables. Even if you attempt to perform read and write operations in-line in user space, you have to put your Linux ISR into kernel space.
As the author and a few
As the author and a few commenters rightfully noted you can go the easy path by mapping all VxWorks tasks to Linux user mode processes/threads. The downside is that the performance hit can be huge (see above comment about mmap overhead).
Fortunately, it looks like now there is a solution - www.femtolinux.com allows to run user processes in kernel mode, removing the user/kernel barrier. FemtoLinux processes are pretty much identical to VxWorks tasks.
Been on both sides of this
15 years as a VxWorks developer, now doing the linux side of the game. 99% of the time, the "real driver" approach is the preferred one - you get protection, etc. (I've ported almost all of my old VxWorks drivers to Linux that way) but there is the odd case - and I'm dealing with one now, where mmap() may buy you the realtime response you need - where even the interrupts are too slow.
(porting from linux to VxWorks is the easy direction - you're going from protected to unprotected,life is easy, aside from a few calls that aren't allowed.)
My catch at the moment though - on the architecture that I'm working with, is that the mmap call is expensive - more than you might think. Each access, by the time it has rolled up and unrolled the various page tables, is appearing to take 700ns - dropping memory bandwidth to less than 14MB/Sec. And that bytes. Pun intended.
Like everything, you've got to evaluate what you're doing, and why

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

For The Register-Herald
West Virginia University no longer is a Top 25 football team.
The Mountaineers (5-3, 2-3 Big 12) dropped completely out of the Associated Press and USA Today poll rankings this week after Saturday's 39-38 double-overtime loss to TCU.
They now have lost three consecutive games in the Big 12 Conference. WVU had swept its first five contests of the season and was ranked No. 5 nationally.
It is possibly the longest drop in WVU football history and there are just four games remaining on the regular-season schedule.
West Virginia returns to action as an underdog this Saturday at Oklahoma State. The Cowboys have been installed as 7 1/2-point favorites.
The kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. and ABC will televise the action.
Meantime, the Mountaineers continue to work hard in an all-out effort to get better and end their disastrous three-game losing streak.
Oklahoma State (5-3, 3-2 Big 12) is coached by Mike Gundy, in his eighth season at the school. His record is 55-33 to date.
The Cowboys were 12-1 last year and champions of the Fiesta Bowl. Fifty lettermen, including 19 starters, have returned from 2011.
Dana Holgorsen, West Virginia's second-year head coach, said his team has got to improve. It has not been nearly as productive as it was during the first five contests.
"What we've done (offensively) the last three weeks is totally unacceptable," he declared. "I thought we played very well defensively.
"The season's not over. We'll get back to work (Sunday). I can't say enough about what our defense accomplished over the last two weeks."
Switching Cecil Level from cornerback to safety for Saturday's game was a major change that worked out well. He is a senior transfer after two years at WVU Tech.
Level, making his first start, made five tackles and also forced a fumble which set up a WVU scoring drive. He replaced Darwin Cook in the lineup.
"Cecil gave great effort in practice every day of the bye week," Holgorsen explained.
As for the TCU defeat, Holgorsen recalled, "They tackled a lot better than we blocked and they whipped us up front."

This is a column that I recently wrote for Cancer Today about getting along/working well with your healthcare team. It pretty much sums up my comments on the topic, but I do want to add that you don't need to settle for care that feels uncomfortable or just not right. There are always other choices of caregivers. It can be awkward if you dislike your chemotherapy nurse or don't quite click with your doctor, but your needs come first, and you should listen to your instincts. I not infrequently talk with women who want to make a change, and we always can make it happen.

Irish cream
This article does not cite any references or sources. (July 2011) |
Irish cream is a cream liqueur based on Irish whiskey, cream, and other ingredients such as coffee, which can be served on its own or used in mixed drinks or as part of a shot or a whole shot. Irish cream is very popular in the United Kingdom, Canada, and the United States.
Irish cream typically has between 15 to 20% alcohol by volume (ABV). Some notable brands of Irish cream are Baileys, Carolans and Saint Brendan's.
The five largest manufacturers of Irish Cream Liqueurs in Ireland are (in no particular order) Diageo, Niche Drinks, First Ireland Spirits, Terra, and Merry's.
It is usually served on the rocks as a moderately strong beverage on its own, but is often mixed stronger by adding more whiskey or sometimes bourbon, which complements the Irish Whiskey used in production. Coffee liqueur such as Kahlúa and many caramel liqueurs are also used. Baileys is a common addition to White Russians, due to its creamy flavour.
Home recipes[edit]
Some recipes for Irish cream liqueur have been published, which use various combinations of Irish whiskey, cream, coffee (sometimes, and usually optional), sweetened condensed milk and evaporated milk. Many have significantly less alcohol by volume than the commercial brands.

The SPE sync cable for iPhone and iPad is a perfect and affordable solution for the age old problem of never having enough cables handy when you need them. If you've ever experienced the frustration of getting to the office and finding your iPhone at only 50% battery life and realizing that you forgot your sync cable... well this accessory is for you.
At only $4.95, the SPE sync cable is nearly a quarter of the price of Apple's cable. So if you've been thinking it'd be nice to have an extra cable or two laying around, pick one of these up!
In comparison with Apple's cable, SPE's sync cable is the same length at 3 feet, 4 inches long. However, the dock connector end is bigger. This means that it may not work with all cases. If you use a case that is designed in such a way that Apple's sync cable barely fits, then the SPE cable will not work for you. Two cases that I have encountered that do not work with this cable is Apple's bumper case and Element's Vapor case. Another difference is that SPE's cable has two buttons you must squeeze in order to unplug it from your device. If you like a secure connection that won't come loose unintentionally, you'll like this. If you prefer the convenience of of quick and easy removal than this is mildly annoying, but acceptable.
Despite these inconveniences, the SPE sync cable for iPhone and iPad is an excellent choice for a back-up cable and for that the price is its biggest draw.
The SPE sync cable for iPhone and iPad is available from the TiPb iPhone + iPad accessory store.
^^^ thats what i was thinking my 1st gen ipod video came with that same cord and i was actually using with my iphone 4 the other day and had to take off the bumper i then preceded to knock it off my table and crack the screen=(
I sometimes miss the "squeeze to release" cables of old since the new ones do come loose and don't charge or sync and I don't notice.
I 'em better too. Once in awhile you let it dangle and the squeeze to release keeps her in their. Not such a big deal for me when syncing but my nightly charger is one. I buyin' one anytime soon though; when you've had an iPod since '04 and an iPhone since '07, with plenty more added on the way, you tend to get a stockpile of these things...though you can never have too many of those stickers.
Ok so this is the older cable that preceded the "apple cable" you showed us. They are both made by apple. You guys at SPE probably just bought old stock of the old cables and are trying to sell them as new. There's nothing wrong with that, sometimes it would be nice to have another cheap cable lying around the house. But seriously, you could just be honest about it. You don't have to lie to us.
These cables will fit with a bumper with a few minutes of work.
Get a fingernail file and go to work on the long sides of the plug (you don't have to do the whole side, just the part near the metal part).
Works great.
The price is definitely the selling point for me. I am disappointed about the squeeze to release but I could get over it.
Great review.
there are way better deals in dealextreme.com for iphone/ipad cables. all of then much less than the price of this product. some even go as low as $1.60 (or lower if you buy 3 or more) and everything is shipped free. check out this url: http://www.dealextreme.com/search.dx/search.iphone%20cable
just a warning, dealextreme.com can be very addictive. there is always something there for us geeks!
I would not say the squeeze buttons unlock is a con. I was charging with my apple cable, and did not realize it had came out enough to disconnect it. To me the lock style connectors are a good feature. Great price for this cable. Wish it was about two feet longer.
