Suspicious Attacks on the Super Brochure: Agents Provocateur?Submitted by Dr.K.Research on Sun, 02/19/2012 - 16:35
Feb. 19, 2012: 2:00 p.m, by K. Khaleel, Exclusive to the Daily Paul
On the Daily Paul and also RonPaulForums there has been a relentless attack on a grass roots project for the Ron Paul presidential campaign called the super brochure. Posters have claimed that the brochure is ineffective and even dangerous. These posters say virtually nothing good about it and are always in the attack mode. The mailings, they attest, are a waste of money and precious resources.
They even claim that the Ron Paul campaign itself is against these brochures. Accusations have been spread widely, without substantiation. When the posters are countered, they offer no evidence for their claims. There is also a trend within these posts which is highly disturbing. While the brochure is condemned, simultaneously, SuperPacs and, particularly, RevPac are either commended or treated neutrally. Something is amiss? Is it a plot?
The brochures are highly professional. They are colorful, artfully done, and the content compelling. Leaving nothing to chance they answer so many questions. In fact, reading them creates a sense of motivation and desire, a real enthusiasm to support Dr. Paul. Within the super brochure are answers to the global crisis we are in. They have summarized in a thorough form virtually all of Dr. Paul's positions. Thus, many Ron Paul supporters find them essential and freely give them out, without a second thought.
Supporters then noticed a battery of attacks regarding them on the Daily Paul. The velocity of those attacks increased dramatically after a recent pledge drive. People actually signed up that day just to attack the thread.

I had several surreal incidents with the SB in SC
so I'm maybe not the best witness but both my town's precincts took 2nd for Dr. Paul (I hand addressed my precinct and the other half of town was sent in by SB). A local car dealer even taped a super brochure I had hand addressed to him to his front glass door for the whole world to see. Quite an endorsement for a lil town. :)

If it weren't effective...
They wouldn't be attacking it. TROLLS!
My friends put our phone number on about 6000 of them and walked them around. We read it. It is good. Accurate, and hard hitting. Best political brochure I've ever seen.
Screw the trolls. Their motto is "confusion to the enemy". Don't let them slow you down! Keep going.
Trying to force everybody to do the same thing the same way which is their way… Who do they remind you of?

I will say THIS again
South Carolina was the most extensively mailed state yet. The vote count that is "official" is over 3x greater than 2008.
Now, take into account the placement of an algorithmic forumula to cull 5% of the votes over to Romney, posted here by a South Carolina investigator: let's just say that Paul got 17%, very reasonable--that raises the success rate to 500%.
Come on, "agents:" argue this.
Prediction: the Super Brochure will elicit hundreds of thousands of new voters
Prediction: the antagonists will be proven as not only fools but enemy agents.
Sorry, logic fail again. We
Sorry, logic fail again.
We got 3x the vote in NH as well without the SB. In fact, we did incredibly in NH where a higher percentage of the total population voted for Paul than any other state by far.
In Maine, we got like 33% without the SB. In fact, NH and Maine were probably our best states. In Minnesota, we outperformed polls by a wide margin. Again, no SB.
In Nevada, we got creamed. In SC we got creamed. In Iowa, we were leading in the polls, and underperformed. All had super brochures.
I love the part where you arbitrarily add 5% to Pauls votes in SC, but not his votes in 2008 SC or his votes in 2012 in MN or NH. That's pretty convenient.
But of course I'd say that. After all, I'm an 'agent'. So go ahead, give this dude more money! The only people who would question his money making scheme are 'agents'. I'm sure this will be proven at any moment.
Seriously people, give to the campaign or a reputable PAC. And use phone from home.
Failed logic...
Phone from home has serious flaws - not the best script and people being harassed with repeated calls.
Revpac has reputable and true libertarians on its staff, so you would be saying that is what kills an organization's reputation.
FL was the lowest with 7% - endorse liberty spent millions in that state. I don't think there were too many brochures there.
Iowa and NH includes votes from independents, whereas the other states in which got 'creamed' only allows republican voters. Also, hundreds of thousands were spent on positive ads, like the 30 second one on cutting agencies. Then, that good ad stopped running. The anti-Santorum ads in SC did not help, and likely will not help in MI if what occurred in SC is replayed.
Linking results to only SB is not intelligent. It doesn't necessarily mean you are an 'agent', but means you may be influenced by them that you allowed to form opinions for you.
Wow, telling us how to spend our money again
This does deserve an answer. Of what "reputable" PAC do you speak? You don't want anyone to "spend" on the brochure but you suggest a PAC? Which one?
By the way mailings were done in Maine.
"Go ahead, give this dude more money." And what "dude" are you talking about? Answer the question.
Part of the problem, part of the sollution?
I believe that part of the problem might be that these were registered Republican and/or Independents address' back in 2008 & 2010. In some states that have really seen the housing crisis hit hard, are these people still there?
As someone who did give, and saw states get "Blanketed", like Iowa with over 440,000 to both republicans & independents, to see only 26,000 votes for Ron Paul was disappointing to say the least. Same thing with South Carolina, where over 250,000 were sent out, Ron Paul didn't campaign there, and he took a very distant 4th. Nevada was around 60% completed with around 200,000 brochures that went out, to only get around 6,000 caucus votes, and take 3rd?
So really... I would now question how well it's working too.
However, when I saw a poll that showed Ron Paul, NOT any other GOP candidate would be around 49% to 42% against Obama today in Iowa, who knows?
But, I've got a different strategy now. I received a case recently, and if I mail them, I want them to go to address' where people DEFINITELY will at least receive them.
A lot has changed since the housing crisis, so would it almost be worth getting a case, and mailing them to business', or handing them out personally, rather than spending money sending them to a vacant address? I think that is the new strategy for me anyway.
One step. Sending about 10 to the county commissioners in each county of my state, with a letter asking them to consider reading it, and if they like it, pass it on to friends, and purchase more from the website.
I think the Super Brochures are a great idea. I really think if we want to see more elderly start to get on board, this may be one of the only effective tools, so hand them out to them. Drop some off at a retirement home for their coffee table reading material. Drop a few off at restaraunts, and mention to the managers that Ron Paul is the only one who has mentioned not wanting to tax tips. BE CREATIVE. There is still time. Remember too, blank Super Brochures means that the person you hand it out to can always mail it to someone they want to.
Stop Ron Paul 2012 on facebook
was talking about doing this.
They also come in here and act all high and mighty preaching pacifism as non-agressionism and then telling us how we should act and speak ect. Honestly they've been posting a lot of stuff up here recently most of which is not well received. For instance the post the other day about anger over the word "Frothy" being so called disgusting was written by Jere Brower (use of "my woman and child" was a give away).
Personally I think it would be prudent to destroy their lines of communication so that they can't pull this crap. That being said this could literally just be Jere doing all the posting on multiple accounts. He literally posts to Facebook all day every day. It's not unthinkable that he posts to DP and other RP boards most of the day too.
People say they hurt and help about equally so they dont make any difference, the brochures our great for people who already like Ron Paul, but for neocons I don't think it helps much unless you go door to door with them and explain, keep in mind the campaign needs the money more than ever with super Tuesday coming up. And our number one priority should be donating to the campaign.
Tell these people that we
Tell these people that we will back what we want, when we want and with however much $ we want cause it's a free country...! Or did they forget that point...!? Tell them to suck on it and because of what they are saying, that you are going to go and donate more $ to the SB in their name...!
They will shut-up soon enough if everyone took this route...! :-)
"They" are the RP2012 campaign.
So the RP campaign has an exclusive communications channel with you and/or RP forums and not one with the DP... so the campaign is using that exclusive communications channel with RP forums and/or yourself to pass a message along to the DP with specific instruction pertaining to the super brochures.... to "burn them."
"When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace."
Jimi Hendrix
I guess, but it's not exclusive
Well I wouldn't call personal friendships "exclusive communications channel" but yeah, kinda. Two caucus state campaign directors I've spoken to directly have come out adamantly against the un targeted canvassing of Republicans with SB's. Anyone who is directly involved with the campaigns efforts and asks anyone from the campaign's staff will get the same answer. I'm not special I'm just involved and talking to the right people.
Back at it again, aren't Mr. Campaign expert and troll
Why don't you get with the program and do something productive, like shut up.
You're hilarious...
When is the last time you called someone in your precinct?
When is the last time you helped staff or organize a rally in your state?
When is the last time you attended a GOP meeting?
When is the last time you lifted a finger to help RP?
When is the last time you canvassed?
When is the last time you contacted the campaign to see how you can help?
When is the last time you donated?
Im willing to bet most of these answers are never.
Who's the agent now?
p.s. Typing doesn't count.
These SBs must be kickin some serious butt.. :)
"When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace."

The official campaign is the source of the negativity.
Right or Wrong, it is not trolls who are after the super brochure when the words from the official campaign have been as I understand it.. "burn them".
Personally I like the brochures but I think there is an honest disagreement concerning their effectiveness; particularly with certain NeoCon audiences where the focus is to sell Ron Paul on one or two main issues.
In this case the SB is too broad but it is still a great and wonderful effort to be honest with the electorate. Sometimes that honesty gets in the way of campaigning though when you are trying to sell and get a vote on one issue.
When in doubt, go to the source.
I will be calling the campaign tomorrow to see if I can get their official position on the Super Brochures. I agree with much of what you said here.
πολλα γαρ πταιομεν απαντες ει τις εν λογω ου πταιει ουτος τελειος ανηρ δυνατος χαλιναγωγησαι και ολον το σωμα
A Ron Paul campaign volunteer called me over the weekend...
to poll me. I asked him if I could get some of the Super Brochures from the campaign to pass out to all the delegates and alternates in my county before our convention. He told me he would have to call me back, and he did the next morning. He said that the Super Brochure project is part of a pac that is unaffiliated with the Ron Paul Campaign. By law Ron's campaign can't be involved with this project.
So I ordered 900 Super Brochures myself to pass out and try to get into the hands of delegates before our convention. It's never too late to make converts.
Minnesota Mary
I think the brochure is FANTASTIC!
SO~~~let's have the superbrochure on the FACEpage of DP for the next big brochure fundraiser, Michael!
Neither the time or place.
Great, continue to fund this project if you like it or not. Looks like it is doing well. In either case, stay in your lane.
Have a little rationality in your assessment though.
If the campaign thought these things were as great as everyone says, don't you think they would create something similar?
In all honesty, I've promoted and donated to this project. I have also volunteered for the campaign. I see arguments from both sides.
Sorry there is no conspiracy. People didn't like the blimp either, thought it was a waste of money. Are those people "provocateurs"? I guess everyone who criticizes the campaign is an "agent" as well. Give me a break. Do what you want to do to spread the message but don't expect everyone to like what you are doing.
Maybe people need to listen to criticism sometimes, even in the revolution. How else do we learn from our mistakes?

why can't
they just ban those people?
Your comment..
Ban someone for not agreeing with you on if something is effective or not? Sounds like you must be a romney supporter.
Super Brochure work, while it may be ads that do not.
Those claim that brochures don't work bec Iowa and NV, etc...were lost and the brochures were spread and yet, losses still occurred.
Well, several tens of millions of dollars were used in ads, and Paul still lost those states. I doubt superbrochure can overtake tens of millions of dollars in campaign. However, the superbrochure can still be powerful - and that is why intelligent libertarians over at RevPac created it - those who are well known in the libertarian community thru their professional work and have been true friends of Paul for years.
I think the super brochures
I think the super brochures are brilliant....literally!
Haven't used the Super Brochures for canvassing door-to-door
I've been going door-to-door asking what issue is most important (from a list of issues) to the voter and then I give them the corresponding slim jim. I'm using the Official Campaign's slim jims. They have targeted ones for each audience.
Though the info on each slim jim is limited, I think it gives the relevant info to the voter. People gave me some superbrochures. It's a complete comprehensive encyclopedia! It's gives you ALL the info. I think that's great. But there are unintended consequences when you hand out too much info to sheeple. REMEBER, we're dealing w/ Sheeple and not well-informed Ron Paulers.
SuperBrochures are best given out to a die-hard Ron Paul supporter. But then what's the point!
I will say it again
I keep reading posts on here about conspiracies to crush the SB. Let me say again!
I have personally spoken to two State exec directors from the RP campaign THIS MONTH who have each expressed concerns. I won't get into the financial side or motives. Simply addressing the nature of un-targeted materials and the fact that this SB doesn't jive with the campaign's VERY well planned strategy.
I have linked to a pertinent article of my own further down the page.
This is not a conspiracy to discount the SB, in fact my conversations have led to recommendations to help SB sell more brochures and integrate fully into the campaign strategy.
I thought RP supporters were supposed to be the objective ones? Read through the more rational posts on the subject and feel free to ask questions of the actual campaign in your state for info. If you can't find contact info I will send it to you.

Edit for spelling
The Super Brochure is Bringing in Voters
What are you talking about? How many voters can you prove you have brought in with direct face-to-face or mail activity in the last 30 days?
Give us names. Give us proof. Boston Globe, NYT, MSNBC, all heaping huge praise on this piece of literature. You can't buy that kind of publicity. You're telling me that the campaign doesn't like RP's platform put together on a piece of paper? I don't beleive a word you say.
No other campaign has gotten that kind of press; slim jims: I'm not giving those out. They are nothing compared to the SB. Not even close. Want the truth: I'm embarrassed to give out slim jims.
There is so much dissention. We're maxed out. This our only tool. Why would anyone criticize it? Unbelievable.
If you are unaware of its effectiveness, take the time to listen to those calls on my Vote UP! post. Otherwise, get out of the way. By leverage the campaign as the authority, you're damaging the grass roots effort. It's our right to use it, constitutionally. Stand out of the way.
How do you benefit by dissing the brochure, anyway? Get that campaign cloak off, and let us do what we're going to do.

This letter reports a theoretical model for determination of generated electric power from piezoelectric bimorph transducers in low frequency range far from the piezoelectric resonance. The model is divided into two parts. In the first part the open circuit voltage response of the transducer under the ac stress is computed based on the bending beam theory for bimorph. In the second part, this open circuit voltage acts as the input to the equivalent circuit of the capacitor connected across a pure resistive load. The results of the theoretical model were verified by comparing it with the measured response of a prototype windmill. The prototype piezoelectric windmill consisting of ten piezoelectric bimorph transducers was operated in the wind speed of 1–12 mph. A power of 7.5 mW at the wind speed of 10 mph was measured across a matching load of

"Artist (fill in the blank) doesn't sound like anyone else" has become such a common phrase that it's ironically become cliché, but I just don't know what else to say; OnCue is really developing his own sound. Not rapping, not singing, not rock, not pop, Cuey is not any of these things. Or maybe he's all of them. You know what? Before I get you even more confused just listen to his new release Feet Tall, that should clear things up. With a music box meets electric guitar beat from CJ Luzi setting the backdrop, the DJBooth Freestyle alum explains that he feels like he's finally become someone worth knowing through his music, pausing just long enough to reference Steve Urkel/Stephan, Brian Eno, a cross-dressing Shaq and more, topping off the lyrical fireworks with a understated yet engaged hook. Don't worry, I won't make you read any terrible puns involving OnCue's upcoming album Can't Wait, coming soon, but those hungry for a new full-length from Cuey can grab a dope appetizer in the form of his Leftovers project. (Sorry, I couldn't resist at least one pun.)

Senior Leadership Pay Continues to Rise
Qualify for a free subscription to HealthLeaders magazine.
This article appears in the November 2012 issue of HealthLeaders magazine.
Across the C-suite, salaries and total cash compensation continue to rise, though changes to incentive structures may be influencing the size of the increase.
INTEGRATED Healthcare Strategies' 2012 National Healthcare Leadership Compensation Survey reports that though the use of annual incentives for executives remains very common, with approximately 80% of all hospitals and systems providing this type of plan for executives, the use of long-term incentives is slowly increasing, explains Kevin Talbot, executive vice president and practice leader at Integrated Healthcare Strategies.
He notes that an IHS study indicates from 2001 to 2011 hospitals and health systems began slowly adding more long-term incentives into the executive compensation model. IHS' data also indicates the most common performance category for annual incentives remains financial (generally, operating margin) though clinical quality and patient satisfaction are also in the incentive mix.
For not-for-profit CEOs nationwide the median total cash compensation (base plus incentives) increased 3% to 6.7% over last year, and these organizations' senior leadership teams gained similar pay increases, according to IHS' survey and the Sullivan, Cotter and Associates, Inc. report, 2012 Survey of Manager and Executive Compensation in Hospitals and Health Systems.
Health system CEOs' median base salaries increased to $717,500 (2012) from $650,000 (2011), while independent hospital CEOs' median base salaries rose to $506,100 from $472,000 during that period, according to IHS. Comparatively, Sullivan, Cotter and Associates shows the base pay for system CEOs nationwide increased while the TCC declined slightly—base pay increased to $334,700 from $325,000, while TCC decreased to $411,100 from $412,100 from 2012 to 2011, respectively. Unlike their health system counterparts, independent hospital CEOs' base pay and TCC climbed between 2011 and 2012—base pay went up to $530,000 from $504,000 (a 4.9% gain) and TCC jumped 4.3% to $600,000 from $574,000.

Lone Star trek like going to football heaven
by joe e. cervi the pueblo chieftain
Published: September 13, 2013; Last modified: September 13, 2013 08:40AM
ARLINGTON, Texas — God must not care much for Division II football.
That must explain why the retractable roof on AT&T Stadium, otherwise known as Cowboys Stadium, is closed for the weekend.
The moveable roof was installed in the $1.5 billion stadium because God, the locals joke, likes the Dallas Cowboys.
That, and He apparently thinks it's funny to mix high heat with even higher humidity.

Booked on a Disney Cruise Aug 29, 2010 to Bahamas. Worried it is hurricane season. Does the boat get really rocky? First time on Disney Cruise not sure how to prepare for weather.
- Asked by Susan from British Columbia on 5/5/2010
Hi Susan,
Welcome to the Moms Panel, and congratulations on booking a Disney Cruise! Sailing during hurricane season is a common concern, but I'll admit that it is one of my favorite times to sail. The warm weather, low rates and smaller crowds make this an ideal time to enjoy a cruise.
That being said, unfortunately the weather isn't something we can control. I've sailed in some pretty rough waters, as well as seas that were eeriely calm - so I would never discourage someone from cruising, I simply encourage you to go prepared!
Talk to your doctor of pharmacist before you leave to discuss your options. There are over the counter and prescription medications that work great a combating sea sickness. On my most recent cruise I bought the Sea-Band bracelets but thankfully didn't even have to take them out of the package.
Another tip for anyone in your party that may feel a little woozy - get fresh air, preferably from a mid-ship location (the further forward you go the more you will feel the motion), and look off at the horizon. Try to avoid looking at the waves in the close proximity to the ship as this can make your nausea worse. On the Magic and Wonder, I try to avoid deck 4 outside when I'm not feeling well because it gives you an up close and personal look and feel of the motion of the ship. I do suggest going to deck 7 aft because there is a nice small outside deck, away from the water. It is the perfect place to get fresh air should you not have a cabin with a verandah.
The weather this time of year is typically hot and humid - but the theaters and restaurants are quite chilly with the air conditioning, so I recommend bringing a light sweater for the evenings.
Hope this helps!

A Thank You Story with Gratitude: The Runaway Whippet of La Jolla
By Joni Lovci
There are senseless moments in life when devastating gratuitous pain and adversity render us speechless and sobbing in the wake of human suffering. September 11. The horrific wildfires in San Diego. A lost and frightened whippet roaming the streets of La Jolla for three days. (Well, at least to me, his owner, this event ranked right up there with the big ones.)
Paradoxically and fortunately, these are also the moments when true magic occurs in the universe, when people hold your hand and touch your heart, when despair is transformed into beauty and gratitude. These are the moments that restore your faith that the world is indeed a magnificent place in which to live.
I'd like to share the following such moment with the people of La Jolla as a way to express my gratitude to many of them:
Andrea the whippet bolted out of my physical therapist's office on Fay Street at noon on Columbus Day, Oct. 10. I had taken my dog with me to physical therapy because he was four days out of surgery for a serious leg laceration. He wore a wide "bite not" protective collar and needed monitoring.
During his escapade, he ran loose for three days, and was sighted on Girard, La Jolla Boulevard, La Jolla Cove, and the Children's Seal Pool before he was finally apprehended and recovered
days later.
One minute Andrea was securely snoozing next to me on the massage table. The next minute he had made his way to an open reception area door and was bounding down the stairs en route to Girard Avenue. I knew my too-smart-for-his-own-good boy had exploited human error, when I heard the panicked voice of my therapist Nick, yelling, "Andrea! Andrea!" and then heard the thump, thump, thump! of fleeing dog paws down the steep, concrete staircase.
Nick was in hot pursuit by the time I found Andrea's leash and hobbled down the stairs in a vain attempt to join the sprinters. I searched for about four blocks before I was exhausted and turned back to the office to get my car keys and cell phone for what was to be a six-hour search without catching a glimpse of Andrea.
A woman named
said she had cornered him and attempted to catch him at an intersection on Dowling, but by the time I drove by, Andrea had apparently moved on. I continued on my search and drove for hours, intermittently parking the car, opening the door, calling his name, getting out and searching on foot — always just missing him, or so others told me.
I didn't get many names, but here are some of the heroes:
• Thanks to the
folks at the veterinary clinic on Fay Avenue
that I raced into, who took Andrea's description and my cell phone number.
• Thanks to the
two gardeners
who completely stopped their work and escorted me down the street they had witnessed the wayward whippet running. Or as they described it: "Black dog. Fast."

Morning Cup Of Joe From HootersCalendar.comAugust 28th, 2014
Bucs news forthcoming.
For the stat nerds: Bucs one of the three most underachieving teams last season. [Football Perspective]
Danny Snyder has deemed FedEx Field, just one year older than the Stadium on Dale Mabry Highway, outdated and is looking to build a new crib. Let's do the math: Dixie Chicks get new stadium, Dolphins get renovated stadium, Jags renovate their stadium, Saints renovated the Superdome, Stinking Panthers getting a renovated stadium… and the Bucs still have analog video boards. But they have a pirate ship few can go up in, yay! [NFL]
The NFL quarterback with most game-winning drives is… [BSPN]
Today is a glorious day. Football returns. Meaningful football, not glorified scrimmages or underwear football. Real football. No more watching batters step out of the batters box after each pitch to play with themselves. No being assaulted with the non-basketball association. No more talk how the showering habits of an NFL player. Yes! Here's your TV schedule for a weekend full of foot-bawl! [NationalChamps]
No power, no speed, no defense. Other than that, Merlot Joe's done a helluva job. [RaysIndex]

Alabama offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Lane Kiffin speaks to the media before practice Tuscaloosa, Ala., in this file photo.Photo by Associated Press /Chattanooga Times Free Press.
Alabama first-year offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin will be on display a lot more than originally thought.
Crimson Tide head coach Nick Saban announced after Wednesday's practice that Kiffin would work from the field this season and not in the booth. Former Alabama offensive coordinators Greg McElwain and Doug Nussmeier each coached from the booth.
"I always let the coordinators be where they want to be," Saban said, "but in this case, even though he feels more comfortable being in the press box, I think it's important he's on the field where he has the greatest impact on the players."
Alabama opens its 2014 season Saturday against West Virginia inside the Georgia Dome. Saban and Kiffin has overseen a quarterback competition this month between Blake Sims and Jacob Coker, and a starter has not been announced.
Kiffin, the former head coach of Tennessee, returns to Knoxville on Oct. 25.
"I've never made the offensive coordinator come down, but we're going to do that this year," Saban said.
Saban also announced Wednesday that senior linebacker Trey DePriest would miss Saturday's opener due to a minor NCAA infraction.
"He will be available to play next week against Florida Atlantic," Saban said. "This is a one-game deal."
DePriest started all 13 games last season, recording 65 tackles and 7.5 tackles for loss.

If you go back twenty years, then choosing the best solar PV system would not have been difficult – because you wouldn't have had many options! Domestic solar panel manufacturers were few and far between, and companies willing to install a solar PV system for you would have been even harder to find.
Thankfully, the world has begun to wake up to the potential of solar as a clean, renewable source of energy, and both solar panel manufacturers and installers are much easier to find. Both of these factors have meant that the price of panels and installation has fallen sharply, particularly in the last five years or so, as the market has become much more competitive. Previously, German panels were seen as the PV panel of choice, but more and more Asian companies (particularly Chinese companies) are starting to produce panels that are just as efficient as their German counterparts.
When it comes to choosing the best solar PV system for you, there are three things you need to consider: how much energy you will be using, how much appropriate roof space you have, and how far your budget can stretch.
PV (photovoltaic) panels are the most common type of panel, especially for residential installations. They are made from three layers: * The N-Layer – silicon that is mixed with phosphorus * The P/N Junction – pure silicon * The P-Layer – silicon that is mixed with boron When sunlight strikes the N-Layer, it knocks electrons loose. These electrons pass through the P/N junction (which is a one-way junction) into the P-Layer. This creates an electrical field that then drives the electrons that have been "knocked off" from the silicon, creating an electric current.
If you know your physics, then you will know that the electric current that is generated in this way is direct current (DC), which is like the electricity stored in batteries. However, mains electricity is alternating current (AC) where the flow of electricity changes direction 50 times a second. To make the electricity supplied by solar power suitable for use in domestic homes, a device is needed that converts DC current to AC current, and this device is called an inverter. An inverter works in a very simple way, using a series of switches which are known as "solid state switches" that "flips" the DC current backwards and forwards 50 times a second, to create the AC current.
Not all solar power systems have a battery, but some systems that produce more electricity than is needed for the building they are powering have a battery connected to store this excess energy. The stored energy can then be used when the solar panels are not providing enough energy, such as dark and rainy days.
The distributor is the device that distributes the AC power created by the inverter to the grid, and sometimes to both the home in which the solar power system has been installed and the grid. The output from the inverter is fed to a dedicated breaker in your house's electric panel, and then through to your home. If you are creating more power then you are using, then some of the power flows backwards and into the grid, and you receive a credit from your utilities company. If your system is not supplying enough energy for your home, then the shortfall is made up as usual by your utilities company. These are the basic components of any solar energy system and as you can see, solar power is not a complex energy system – the cells create DC current, the inverter changes it to AC current, and the distributor controls the way in which power is distributed between your home and your utilities supplier.

Backpackers need cheap drinks, or pretty much cheap anything while they're travelling around the world and Auckland is no different. We must remember that not everyone can be a 'flashpacker' and New Zealand (especially Auckland) is relatively expensive (compared to S E Asia!) and so here is a helping hand for backpackers...
The top 5 places to get cheap drinks in Auckland.
1. Provedor - Provedor can be found just before the main part of Aucklands Viaduct Harbour. Provedor has some amazing drink deals including a Happy Hour every day from 3pm to 7pm where you can get $4 Heineken, Tap Beer and House Spirits. You can also get $3 Heinekens on a Wednesday! Well worth a visit and a good viewing point to watch some of the big cruise ships coming and going.
2. Cassette Nine - Pop Panic at Cassette Nine happens every Tuesday night and starts at 9pm, you'll get a free drink on arrival as well as some great tunes being played all night (all your favourite pop hits from the last few decades) you can get some pretty sweet drink deals too ($5 Margheritas), some tasty tacos for only $4 too and even a chance to win some travel prizes in their Riff Raffle.
3. The Camel Bar - our favourite sister hostel's bar is a backpacker favourite for a reason. Combine good atmosphere, a crazy range of music (depending upon who's on bar duty) and excellent drink specials, and you can't really go wrong. Also you can now get some tasty Bar Snacks from only $5!
4. Spitting Feathers - is an English bar in the heart of the city just on Wyndham Street. They have Thirsty Thursday offering $3 Heineken's and $5 pizza's. They also do an amazing traditional Sunday Roast (on Sunday's, of course ha) for only $15.
5. Frenzi Bar Crawl - Not just one bar but four! On the weekly Frenzi Bar Crawl you get an amazing 4 drinks for only $10. The guys will also take you to 4 bars in town which you may not have been to before starts at The Camel Bar at 8pm - find out more about the Frenzi Bar and The Big Night Out Bar Crawl here
Now, I'm also going to give a special mention to Fort Street Union Bar (shown in picture) - Our very own Bar next door to Nomads Auckland. Although for backpackers the drinks are not the cheapest in town (but they are still a good price and they have some great specials) if you stay at Nomads Auckland you can get $6 house beer, $7 house wine and and $1 slice pizza on Tuesdays with your keycard! Sweet!
Hopefully we have helped point you in the right direction to find cheap drinks in Auckland. For further advice about cheap drinks, come and have a chat with the guys at Nomads Auckland.

Phoolan Devi murder: Rana convicted on press conference statement
A press conference 13 years ago at which Sher Singh Rana admitted to killing bandit-turned-politician Phoolan Devi nailed him and led to his conviction, the detailed order released Monday reveals.
Additional Sessions Judge Bharat Parashar Friday convicted Rana - who gunned down Phoolan Devi, popularly known as "Bandit Queen" July 25, 2001 - to avenge the 1981 Behmai massacre in which she killed 17 people of the high caste Thakur community.
Relying on the record of the extra judicial confessions made by accused Rana initially in the July 27, 2001 press conference held by him at Doon Press Club and subsequently after his arrest at Dallanwala (Dehradun, Uttarakhand) police station to prosecution witnesses Kishore Arora and Ashish Goyal - cameraman and reporter of a news agency - the court held him guilty in the case.
"In his said press conference prior to his arrest by the police, he admitted before the reporters and cameramen of different news agencies that he along with Rajender alias Ravinder committed the murder of Phoolan Devi and the murderous attack on constable Balender," the court said in its detailed order.
However, the court also opined that "a part of his said claim was found to be false later on as Rajender was found to be lodged in jail at the time of the incident but his statement certainly amounts to an extra judicial confession and thus cannot be brushed aside, especially in view of the other incriminating circumstances which stands proved against him on record".
The court held that statement of these independent witnesses from such a reputed news agency cannot be attributed any oblique motive in deposing falsely against accused Rana.
The court also noted the deposition of witness Rajesh Sharma, staff reporter of Doon Valley Mail, who stated that he interviewed Rana in the Doon Press Club before he was arrested by the police.
"He (Sharma) further said reporters from a number of newspapers were interviewing Sher Singh Rana at that time. To him also, Sher Singh Rana admitted that he has killed Phoolan Devi," the court said.
"I thus find these witnesses to be reliable and their deposition to be cogent and convincing."
"In the aforesaid facts and circumstances, I am of the considered opinion that the two extra judicial confessions made by accused Sher Singh Rana initially at the press conference held at the Doon Press Club and subsequently at Dallanwala police station are strong corroborative pieces of evidence lending support to the other incriminating circumstances which already stands proved against him," it said.
The court acquitted 10 other accused in the case. The quantum of punishment will be announced Aug 13.
Besides Rana, there were 11 other accused in the case. One of them, Pradeep, died of a heart attack in Tihar Jail in November 2013.
Rana was arrested July 27, 2001. However, he escaped from the high security Tihar Jail in 2004.
He was arrested from Kolkata in 2006 and brought back to Delhi where he was again lodged in the Tihar Jail.

Hi all,
I've been thinking on how I could make something useful for the Nmap
community. I would appreciate your feedback on this idea. It's about a
distributed Nmap network with a RESTful backend, where multiple Nmap
clients are managed by a control server, who is managed by the final
user(s) through a web browser.
If you all think this is a worthy/relevant idea it would be nice if it
could be part of this year's GSoC. I would like to hear your opinions and
A bit about myself: I'm a last year BSc in Computer Science student, about
to start working for my Uni on researching methods for IPv6 address
exploring with Raul Fuentes' work shown here
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2013/q4/285 (currently working on those
scripts' code).
Hi Everado, and thanks for sending your idea! The Nmap Project has again
applied as a mentoring organization for the Google Summer of Code and we're
hopeful for another great year! Assuming we get accepted again, this will
be our 10th year participating. I don't know how many other orgs have
participated in every year Google has offered this program, but I'll bet it
isn't many.
You sound quite motivated and ambitious and I would definitely encourage
you to apply for Nmap SoC! Your Clustered Nmap is a great project, but I'm
not sure it's the sort of thing we'll be looking for this year. We've done
a lot of somewhat external-to-nmap SoC projects in the past (Ncat, Nping,
Zenmap, Ncrack, etc.), but I'm thinking we might turn more inward this
summer and focus on improvements to Nmap itself.
Perhaps you could focus more on performance increases by optimizing Nmap
itself rather than by executing many Nmap instances in parallel. For
example, we've talked about optimizing Nmap's fixed rate scanning (e.g.
--min-rate) so it can keep up with the likes of zmap and masscan. Those
tools are only useful in very specific edge cases, IMHO, but they are edge
cases in which there has long been much interest. I mean who doesn't love
massive Internet scanning/sampling/research? This work could be paired
with empirical scanning to assess the results and reliability of changes
and optimizations in the real world. We maintain a system on a fast
network for this purpose.
I should also mention that the part in your bio about "researching methods
for IPv6 address exploring" is something we continue to be very interested
in. Perhaps it could be worked into the application in some way.
Note that we haven't yet done much organizational discussion or meetings
about our GSoC ideas for this year (the current ideas list on the site is
from last year), so you can take all this with a bit of a grain of salt.
But it is based on my discussions with a number of other Nmap devs. Also,
anyone is free to post their own ideas on our community GSoC ideas page:

Kitty Galore, formerly an agent for cat spy organization MEOWS, has gone rogue and hatched a diabolical plan to not only bring her canine enemies to heel, but take down her former kitty comrades and make the world her scratching post. Faced with this unprecedented threat, cats and dogs will be forced to join forces for the first time in history in an unlikely alliance to save themselves - and their humans - in "Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore," a comedy that blends live action with state-of-the-art puppetry and computer animation. It's time for the fur to fly.

I found a page on Imgur that's "An Open Letter to Non-Vaxxers". The short version is that the author has a son with cancer. Chemotherapy damages the immune system, so even though the son had been vaccinated, he still had to rely on herd immunity to prevent those diseases. Thus, parents who think it's a good idea not to vaccinate their children make Dad pretty upset. They're not just putting their own kids in harm's way; they're putting his kid in harm's way, too.
I should know better than to read the comments sections on the Internet (aside the ones on here, given that they're usually spam that I have to delete), but I went scrolling down and found that the responses were almost universal: anti-vaxxers are stupid and selfish.
However, one comment intrigued me: "She I was young my mom took me to a chicken pox party that way I wouldn't need the vaccine, cause once you've had it you won't get it again"
Strange, but it kinda makes sense. It might keep half the kids in your class out of school for a week while they all have chicken pox at the same time, but now they only have to worry about shingles as they get older.
But that's not the first thought that popped into my head. The first thought was "If this is meant to justify not getting vaccinated, try throwing a polio party and tell me how that turns out."

moir��An undesirable pattern that appears when a graphic image is displayed or printed with an inappropriate resolution. Moiré patterns are difficult to predict because they result from a complex combination of parameters: the size of the image, resolution of the image, resolution of the output device, halftone screen angle, etc.
If you're planning to print a graphic image (particularly a bit-mapped image) on a high-resolution printer, it's a good idea to print a test page first to see if there are any moiré patterns. If there are, you can sometimes eliminate them by changing the resolution of the printout, resizing the image, or changing the angle of the halftone screen.
