New and Noteworthy
marketing idea: Fireproof Salmon
When Distinguished Professor Ron Hites announced that farm-raised
salmon were higher in toxic chemicals than the wild variety, the
news made serious headlines across the country. Then it hit NPR
in the form of satire by Harry Shearer, a former cast member of
Saturday Night Live and comic actor (This is Spinal Tap,
A Mighty Wind).
The fake radio spot, entitled "Sammy the Flame Retardant
Salmon," depicts a family dinner that goes awry when the
salmon suddenly bursts into flames. A new product, marketed by
the fictional Innovent Foods, is described as "the first
salmon guaranteed not to turn your dinner table into a fiery nightmare."
Hites loved the spoof. "It is not often that someone's
research gets reported so widely to the public in such a palatable
way," he says. "Although this was a parody, it did
in fact communicate the main points of our paper and even mentioned
the industrial point of view." The NPR parody can be accessed
by going to www.npr.org and searching for "flame retardant
Hites' original article can be found at
It's Transparent:
There's room for improvement
Are Indianaĺs nonprofits prepared to demonstrate accountability?
A new study from SPEAĺs Kirsten Gr°nbjerg shows that most groups are,
in fact, prepared for the kind of scrutiny recommended by the Senate
Finance Committee, but thereĺs ample room for improvement.
Based on a survey of 2,206 Indiana nonprofit organizations,
the study shows, among other things, that 64 percent have audited
financial reports, 30 percent have a formal conflict of interest policy,
and 70 percent have an annual reportŚthree of the tools the Finance
Committee recommends.
Gr°nbjerg emphasizes that many nonprofits donĺt have the resources to put all
these tools in place. ôItĺs clearly not realistic to ask very small nonprofits
to get a full audit. Itĺs expensive,ö says Gronbjerg, the studyĺs project director
and Efroymson Chair in Philanthropy at the Center on Philanthropy IUPUI. ôBut
something like an annual report or a conflict of interest statement is within
the purview of virtually every organization and would help nonprofits operate
systematically and with greater transparency.ö
Gr°nbjerg is a professor in nonprofit management in the School of Public
and Environmental Affairs at Indiana University. For more details see:

"Therefore, it's the game's fault that I suck at it!"Over time, games in general have gone from Nintendo Hard to more accessible to today's gamers. Still, every once in a while, a game comes along that provides a challenge reminiscent of the Trope Namers of Nintendo Hard. To some gamers, this shall not stand! Video games are about fun, and frustration isn't fun! They're like black and white!...right? There's nothing inherently wrong with a "hard" game. While a large number of gamers find easier games to be more enjoyable than ones that may make them Rage Quit, some gamers like having a challenge in their games. People play games for different reasons; some play to chill out and escape the trials and tribulations of daily life, while others seek such trials within video games. Bear in mind that difficulty can occasionally be a legitimate complaint, depending on what kind of difficulty. Some games are legitimately hard and can provide a great and potentially fun challenge. Or maybe the difficulty is a tad too inconsistent and throws too much at the player at once and there's a huge difficulty spike. Other games are difficult for the wrong reasons, which can be quite legit. (And commonly, when discussing the latter, it's best to keep discussion to that page. But it can still lead to justifiable entries on this series where people criticise the game as being too hard due to Fake Difficulty.) This is not a page on which to complain about hard games — this is for when a fanbase in general or reviewers complain about difficulty. This type of complaint can happen if the preceding game in the series was significantly easier. The polar opposite of It's Easy, so It Sucks. When people try to force the way they play the game (which generally has to do with difficulty) onto other people, you have a Scrub a or "Stop Having Fun" Guy. When you have both It's Easy, so It Sucks and It's Hard, so It Sucks, you wind up with an Unpleasable Fanbase.

Jackpot Slots - Slot Machines

"Jackpot Slots - Slot Machine"
Reviewed by Peter Warrior / Apr 23, 2013
Pull the lever and watch it spin!
The casino genre has been a constant staple in smartphone games with a huge amount of followers and slot machines haven't been casted aside. What we would expect are those typical spinning numbers and fruit we have seen in countless occasions. Instead of that, Jackpot Slots offers us more than 26 types of machines (and counting...) with varied themes including those classical ones as well as pirates, zombies, rockstar kittens, sea life or even Mayans. These themes are incredibly well-built and is the main aspect in which Jackpot Slots excels. The sound-effects and music are incredible and the artwork is just amazing.
The amount of free virtual coins we are given at the beginning is quite generous and will last for a while and is charged, quite slowly, as time passes. Although, the impatient ones can always buy more via the in-game purchase service that will provide us more of those golden tokens immediately for quite a reasonable price if you are willing to pay for it.
The game's interface and social networking is both intuitive and practical. It informs the user with leaderboards to check his position according to his score and provides the option to supply your friends with free coin, which they'll probably appreciate meaning shorter waits.
This game won't mean anything new to the usual slot machine player but its presentation will sure help to pass the time while drifting through the various levels. As for the new player... he can always give it a go.
Jackpot Slots is the most realistic Vegas slots experience on Android. With high quality graphics and themes never before seen on mobile, you'll have fun playing forever with free coins. Can you unlock and master all the machines?
• Tons of slot machines and new ones added all the time
• Extremely high quality art and a wide variety of themes

I did get Profile Manager to silently install apps though it has it's problems. All our iPads were fully supervised and all setup in the exact same way I had around 40 iPads that would sucessfully silently install apps and I have other that wouldn't, they where all the same and after months with Apple Support they couldn't even figure out what was wrong and told me to go back to configurator as profile manager has known bugs such as these. We also had a problem where apps would download and install on 1 iPad but wouldn't install on the next and became a greyed out app on the home screen, again Apple, LEA and Smoothwall couldn't understand why it was working on some but not others.
I would suggest you trial it on a few iPads before doing the lot, I would have to say Profile Manager seems the best bet, although from my personal experience I think it's a pile of cr*p. You may also want to call your LEA and make sure that downloads work as there maybe a caching server on your LEA's network which will cause soooooooooo many problems if you share the same public IP with everyone else.
I'd take what some people say on here with a pinch of salt, I find there's normally a big argument regarding the whole Apple and Microsoft and Linux thing... it's all about finding what works best for your school I can only advise you on my personal experience and hope it helps. Some people will say "I was wrong" or "I didn't do it properly" blah blah that's fine. I've spent over 8 months and had formal training with these iPads and sometimes it's fact they just don't work properly it's a shame because they have the potential to be such nice and cool devices to be used in a school though all they seem to bring with them is frustration in my opinion.
Hope this helps buddy and good luck!
No criticism was intended....
Good advice this part.I would suggest you trial it on a few iPads before doing the lot...
Yes, that's advisable. These sort of network setups could definitely cause problem when you don't truly control your own network.You may also want to call your LEA and make sure that downloads work as there maybe a caching server on your LEA's network which will cause soooooooooo many problems if you share the same public IP with everyone else.
Absolutely.... it's all about finding what works best for your school
This thread is proving very informative thanks everyone.....it's interesting to hear your experiences. Sometimes with Meraki ( and this is not singling them out ) the apps just don't get pushed out to Ipads even thought you tell it to do so - sounds like a similar issue abillybob has with his silent installs.....I am going to have to have a think about all your comments as we have redeemed all our codes ( so if we move over to server based App installation with Profile Manager then as I understand we can't move them over) - I'll have to have a read about it from the links you have sent..
It would be nice to be able to use Apple Configurator and have the same Apps on every Ipad ( like you would image a pc ) but in the real world this isn't going to happen and people ask for odd extra apps from time to time...so the Ipads are different....
Anywhoo wish you all the best if you're stuck on anything don't hesitate to PM me!
pixellip (8th April 2014)
Hi - we use meraki - annoying as hell we trialled it with our 24 iPads but didn't realise that we now cannot move the £900 of apps over to apple configurator without repurchasing !! So I am talking to meraki atm to see if we can streamline / understand why the management console/mdm on iPads and what is actually downloaded don't all appear the same and why apps download fine on 15 iPads in a group but not on the last one ..... concerned that configurator seems to be problematic as well was hoping for a solution !! Meraki was chosen because was hoping to use it for androids/chrome books and iPads ...... hoping
Apple support isn't great and most of my fixes have either come from edugeek, other local schools or by fiddling, I don't think there is a perfect answer yet.
I do find Meraki a bit flakey. We only have 20 ipads but the VPP deploy installed on all the tablets but looking at the VPP only 6 or so have been claimed... no idea why. I wondered if its because I was using the same apple ID for them all but its very weird as some take the license and others don't... same with deploying free apps, I have te auto update apps setting all enabled and most just deploy the free apps auto but some just don't... I go into the Meraki app and check the installed apps and it will show some are assigned but not installed.
Interested in DEP as I don't like the Apple configurator too....why do some ipads reconfigure and others not.
At least we only have 20
It is possible to deploy apps to iPads silently without having to enter passwords.
Make sure all the iPads are signed in with an apple ID. you have to have individual IDs for each iPad AFAIK.
The trick is not to add apps under the apps section. What you do is just assign the licences under the MDM > VPP section. Once the licences are assigned they will deploy automatically. No further action needed.
As mentioned by others, it can tend to miss one or two iPads occasionally which can be frustrating.
It's not brilliant but it works. Kind of.
I've not found it to be that way here. If you assign apps to users through the VPP section alone, they will appear in the Managed Apps area in the Meraki MDM app on those users' devices, where they can then download them. They should also appear under the Purchased section in the App Store. Either way, though, they will not be automatically installed. To have that as well, you also need to deploy them to devices (using tags seems to work best) through MDM > Apps.
Ahh, I have removed the MDM app from the devices.
Try that with one iPad.

Greaper: He's sleeping.Particular to Anime: When sleeping, a character whose primary thrust is comedic develops a bubble of snot from one nostril that inflates and deflates in sync with their breathing or their snoring. Basically the anime equivalent of the 'Zzz' used in Western cartoons and comics. While usually considered a pretty gross concept in the West, Japanese media tends to portray it as cute. The bubble bursts upon awakening. In some cases, it is shown that you can awaken the character by popping it. See also Catching Some Z's for more universal version of sleep representation.
Dry Bones: Boy, he sure is.
The Big Boo: Check those bubbles coming out of his nose!

I have a software that communicates with api of a website. How could I increase its functionality to connect to various other api's without touching the code in it? I think the easiest way is to write a proxy that resides between api and softwre translates incoming messages from other api to the base api that this software "understands". Where should I look for more information on implementing this proxy using c#? Thank you for help.

Hmm sounds like one of the Software design patterns you come across every day. I think what fits best with your "proxy" is actually bridge.

The example in C# is http://sourcemaking.com/design_patterns/bridge/c%2523
However if you just want the proxy design pattern (which imho doesn't suit your problem) is listed here:

here is another place, not sure on stock.

Here you go Ian, this is where I'm at. Now for the wiring and programming. Well, I started the programming already but, lots more to do.
I'm really happy so far. I attempted to lay out the switches ergonomically, and I think I succeeded, everything feels great.
|Feb 11, 2013, 07:33 PM
So has anybody yet hooked this system up to an FrSky module? I'm just at about that point, and am not sure what to do.
I don't know what I don't know.
|Feb 12, 2013, 09:20 AM
I guess what's worrying me, is I initially thought that this was as simple as hooking up the FrSky module PPM input into the Pin 10 output from the Arduino. But I saw in Ian's first thread, that people were talking about using a transistor or FET between the two systems?
|Feb 25, 2013, 11:49 PM
Well, I thought this thing was ready to go, but I tried to fire it up, no go. The FrSky DHT Tx module bound to the receiver fine, but servos won't move.
I tried looking at the signal out of the Arduino with a borrowed Pico Scope, but I can't see anything. Just a seemingly random waveform at +/-50mV which doesn't seem right?
Not sure what to do now.

With the above done you should be getting an output, so the next thing to try is disconecting any connection to the PPM output and scope it then.
BTW, which code are you using........just to confuse things......this thread is really for the USB version of my code, i.e.
RC Joystick Tx V3 - USB Version - PPM is on Arduino Pin 12
RC Joystick Tx V2 - Analogue Version - PPM is on Arduino Pin 10
The analogue version is here:-
And don't forget my website for more info:-

Analogue Version:-
|Feb 26, 2013, 07:38 AM
Oh yeah, the code is running. I've done substantial modifications, but I did not touch the PPM generation stuff. That should be fine. And yes, it was based on the old analog code. I know this is the wrong thread but the old thread is a bit stale and you had said the PPM stuff is unchanged.
Do I need a pulldown resistor on Pin 10 or something? Something to pull the pin down? To stop it floating around 5V?
I did try scoping it, and there's just a seemingly random signal, +/- 50mV. I'm just not sure if that was centered at 0, or maybe the scope auto-zoomed in on 5V. I don't really know what I'm doing as I haven't touched a scope in 15 years, and the one time I did was in an intro lab in university.
I wonder if it matters, I'm using an Arduino Mega, maybe those timers settings don't work on a Mega?
Either that or maybe I've blown something on the chip. I did blow a couple of the pullup resistors way over on like pins 40 and 42 or something. But only those two seem effected now. The others work fine. I'm using almost all the pins on the Mega.

Ok, so what I see so far is that on the new code, you're using Pin 12 as the PPM output. On the old code for the Uno it was Pin 10. I'm still using Pin 10 on the Mega. Maybe this is the problem? What's behind the change from 10 to 12?
I'm trying to figure out the PPM code stuff, and I don't get it at all but, what I'm really curious about is what is the connection between the PPM Generation timers, and the output pin? I can't see any connection.
This stuff is the same between both pieces of code:
// Initialise ISR Timer 1 - PPM generation
TCCR1A = B00110001; // Compare register B used in mode 3
TCCR1B = B00010010; // WGM13 & CS11 set to 1
TCCR1C = B00000000; // All set to 0
TIMSK1 = B00000010; // Interrupt on compare B
TIFR1 = B00000010; // Interrupt on compare B
OCR1A = PPMFreq_uS; // PPM frequency
OCR1B = Fixed_uS; // PPM off time (lo padding)
And so it this part:
ISR(TIMER1_COMPA_vect) {
PPM_len = *(PPM_pointer++);
if(PPM_len > -1) {
OCR1A = PPM_len; // Set pulse length
ACC_PPM_length += PPM_len; // Add pulse length to accumulator
} else {
PPM_pointer = PPM_array; // Reset table position pointer
OCR1A = PPMFreq_uS - ACC_PPM_length; // Calculate final sync pulse length
ACC_PPM_length = 0; // Reset accumulator
But I don't understand how these link to Pin 10 or 12 as output?
Maybe I just need to hook the output to Pin 12 on this Mega and it will magically work?
This is the only part of the code I don't really understand at all.

Ah hah, this probably explains it!
I'm guessing the +/-50mV signal I saw on 10 was just a ghost signal from whatever else was going on in the processor. The timescale was super short, I think in the nano-seconds.
Edit: Sorry to spam the thread, but just in case anybody else is learning along with me, yes, this exactly the issue. My PPM stream is probably on pin 12. I'll test it tonight.

I know you are doing some good, good work on your stick but please use the other thread........all this talk about the analogue version is just messing up this USB version thread.

Sorry, I thought most of the technical details here was agnostic to USB/Analog and/or you wouldn't mind a little diversion showing alternative use of your code and general Arduino learning.

My Attempt
So I'm pretty excited about this. When I found Ian's posts on RCGROUPS regarding the PC joystick TX I had a Eureka moment. You see the two stick transmitters that are typically used for RC aircraft (planes, and copters) have always kept me away from the hobby. I have used plenty of simulators with this type of arrangement with not much success. So Joystick it is!
The goal is to build an FPV Quadcopter. First I will start small with the TX to control my RC Cars as a proof of concept then go on to the quadcopter.
Bought the following:
Logitech Extreme 3D Pro Joystick
Arduino MEGA 2560 R3
USB Host Shield
Corona DIY 2.4Ghz TX
Could I get a sanity check on my circuit? Didn't notice that I got a backlit LCD until too late. I was planning on powering the tx on a 3s 2200mah battery (input voltage is 8v to 12v) and then using a 5v UBEC to power the Arduino. Also given that i'm doing this how would I wire the circuit for Analog Pin 1. Am I correct in assuming that is for voltage monitoring?

Ana Pin 0 is for detecting the battery voltage. It needs scaled down to the voltage range of the analogue input.
R1 = 5.6k
R2 = 1k
Vin = from battery
Vout = to Ana Pin 0
You will probably need to play with the values a bit, or with the multiplier in the code to get the readout accurate.
The Arduino will run fine off of the 3S Lipo direct, you don't need the 5v UBEC. You wouldn't feed 5v into the DC jack of the Arduino, you need 7 - 12vdc there.
I would recommend disconnecting the backlight on the LCD as you might end up pulling too much from the Arduino 5vdc output.

DD Saturday??
Anyone dare to have a DD Saturday? LOL Those are my hardest but I'm going to a bbq tomorrow so I'm hoping to have a 500 calorie DD today so my weekend doesn't pack on the pounds!
B-3 slices turkey bacon and coffee
L-hope to snack on some veggies
D-Salad ?
I'm doing a DD!
2 cups of coffee (out of lower cal creamer, so highish) 130
Planning on a 650-700 cal day. :)
I think you're gonna love the higher DD thing, Cindy.
B: Coffee/HWC
L: 3 HB eggs
D: 4 oz roasted chicken, sliced tomato
D: SF frozen fruit pop
In the 700ish range I think.
Hi All,
I, too have an S Downday. Since this WOE has really taken away my appetite (at least this week), I will probably do all liquid today - LC whey protein shake with spinach mixed in and some cream in my coffee :)
My # is 362....pretty darn low!
Yep, I am here! Just coffee, water and diet soda for the afternoon. If DH wants the family to go out tonight, I will have either a side salad with a drink or two, or a low cal item, depending on where we go. If we don't go, it will be a normal DD!
My number is 408- I'm shootin' for zero tho.
We'll see...
I didn't eat the stuff I had reserved for Thursday,
so if I need to eat, I have a few low calorie options
Let's try this again...ending up having going to a mexican restaurant for dinner on yesterday's "DD"
B- coffee with HWC
L- coffee with HWC
D- HB egg, tuna, mayo, mustard and relish and celery sticks with PB2
Way to go, Cindy!
I got into the Sugar Free bread and butter pickle chips...maybe 20 calories...totally worth it!!! Having some tea or coffee too and hopefully nothing else until dinner.
ETA: Hmmm, the pickle jar says 0 calories per serving but I swear i saw somewhere they are 5 calories per serving...to count or not to count!
Yup, DD for me too, nothing all day then an omlette with cream cheese plus brocolli and cauliflower for dinner. 502 cals
Oh yes! I lost I think 4 pounds this last week, although I had quite a bounce this morning, but I think it's water weight. I feel lighter and smaller, and I can't believe it's all from higher DDs in the 600-700 calorie range. If you don't count today's bounce, I've lost 7 or 8 since starting this 2 weeks ago today. Can't complain!
Well, we did indeed go out tonight. Soooo, higher than normal DD for me, for sure! (felt like a splurge!) 2 rum & diets + house salad & 1/2 house dressing later, I'm at 426 for the day!
Ended up being a high day for me... Family wanted to eat out - at a Chinese buffet. So I'm over 800 for today. The only other thing I'd've had all day was coffee and some carrots. Just going to suck it up and move on...

"Shifting Ground (Beyond National Architecture)" is the exhibition at the Irish Pavilion at the 13th International Architecture Exhibition at the Venice Biennale. The centerpiece of the pavilion is an interactive wooden seesaw—designed by Dublin firm Heneghan Peng Architects—a fixture that, The Royal Institute of the Architects of Ireland reports, prompted Irish Ambassador to Italy Patrick Hennessy to proclaim the showcase "the happiest pavilion at the biennale." The design of the seesaw, officially known here as a Nilometre, was inspired by an Ancient Egyptian rod that was used to measure the water level of the Nile river. In the Irish Pavilion, the Nilometre is set at Venice's high-water mark, and visitors are invited to sit of either end in an effort to balance their weight and make the Nilometre level. One of the most interactive of the exhibitions on display, "Shifting Ground" will be open to the public until Nov. 25.

Increases Quarterly Dividend
ACTON, Mass., April 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Psychemedics Corporation (Amex: PMD) today announced first quarter financial results for the period ended March 31, 2008. The Company also announced a quarterly dividend of $0.17 per share payable to shareholders of record as of June 6, 2008 to be paid on June 20, 2008. This will be the Company's 47th consecutive quarterly dividend.
The Company's revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 was $5.7 million essentially matching revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 was $0.9 million or $0.17 per share, a decrease of 14% from the comparable period last year during which the Company earned $1.0 million or $0.20 per share.
Raymond C. Kubacki, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Despite the challenging economy which saw significant job losses for the first quarter 2008, our revenue remained the same at $5.7 million for the first quarter of 2008 when compared to the first quarter of 2007. Even with the absorption of normal cost increases, our gross margins improved to 58%, up from 57% in the first quarter of 2007, although revenues remained flat."
Kubacki continued, "Our net income was below historic levels due in part to our recent investment in our sales and marketing team during the first quarter of 2008. We expect that the addition of our Director of Marketing and our lead generation team should provide the Company with the tools to capitalize on significant growth opportunities."
Kubacki concluded, "The Company's balance sheet remains strong with
approximately $9.1 million of cash and short-term investments, no long-term
debt and over $12.7 milli

2 New Forums Dealing with FreeBSD Ports">2 New Forums Dealing with FreeBSD Ports
At this week's DevSummit prior to EuroBSDCon, we had discussions on how to improve communications between end-users (who use software and discover bugs and usability problems) and ports maintainers (who port software and fix bugs). It was agreed that it isn't always easy for users to submit their feedback and get a response back. It is equally difficult for ports maintainers to find users willing to test new ports.
In response, we've created two new PC-BSD forums:
- Ports Requests: where users can request ports for software that is not currently ported to FreeBSD
- Ports Testers: where ports maintainers can put out calls for testers and receive user feedback
Please read the README file in each forum before posting a new thread. If you maintain a FreeBSD port or know any ports maintainers, help us spread the word about these new resources

New PBI: Atomic Tanks
The following PBI is now available in Software Manager:
Atomic Tanks: a 2D tank game where small tanks use cartoonishly large weapons to blow up each other. Atomic Tanks is loosely based on the classic DOS game, Scorched Earth. The game is very flexible, allowing anywhere from two to ten players, variable environments and a wide range of weapons and other items.
Thanks to Jesse Smith for creating this PBI.
First Look at New Control Panel
Recently we blogged about the new pc-controlpanel. For those who would like an early peek, you can install this utility on an 8.x system. As the superuser, cd to an appropriate directory and run the following commands:
svn co svn://svn.pcbsd.org/pcbsd/current/src-qt4
cd src-qt4
qmake-qt4 *.pro
make install
Note: The last command will fail with an error if you chose to not install other languages during the initial PC-BSD installation. You can fix this with:
pkg_add –r qt4-linguist
and rerun the make install command.
This will install an entry into System -> PC-BSD Control Panel. Alternately, you can run the command kdesu pc-controlpanel. Here is a screenshot of the current version:
Note: some of the tools in the control panel will not work on 8.x as their code is specific to 9.0. However, you will get a good idea of the changes that are coming in these utilities. Also, the point of the new control panel is to allow easy access to PC-BSD specific utilities from any window manager or desktop environment.
Upgraded Pootle Site Available
The Pootle website, used to localize the PC-BSD menus, was successfully migrated yesterday. Translators can now access the website here, and for now, the old URL redirects to the new location. The migration provides the following benefits:
- Faster (memcache and lucene)
- Suggested translations from Google translate
- The bug that was mangling translated strings should be fixed
The Become a Translator section of the Handbook has been updated, but could use more details to get new translators started. If you have used the PC-BSD Pootle system, please skim through this section. If you can think of useful information to add to it, create a login account and update this section. New users would find the following information useful:
- any gotchas to be aware of when working with the translations
- any processes used by the translation teams to coordinate the review of new translations
Looking for Bordeaux Testers
Bordeaux is looking for PC-BSD and FreeBSD testers who are willing to write a review. From the Bordeaux website:
The Bordeaux Technology Group is a software services and development company specializing in Windows compatibility software. Users of Linux, FreeBSD, PC-BSD, Solaris, OpenSolaris and Mac OSX systems from time to time find themselves in the need to run specialized Windows software. The Bordeaux suite enables access to these programs and data in a seamless and low cost manner without requiring licensing of Microsoft Technology.
In return for the review, they will give the reviewer a free copy of Bordeaux and a link back to the review site. If you're interested, check out this forum thread.
John Hixson on BSDTalk
John has been working on enhancements to the backend of pc-sysinstaller. He describes his progress so far and brainstorms possible future features with Will Backman on today's issue of BSDTalk. John hopes to have testing snapshots that include his changes in time for MeetBSD in early November and we'll announce them here when they are available so you can check them out.

Topic Outline
The measurement of serum levels of muscle enzymes is a critical part of the evaluation of patients presenting with weakness or myalgias, and it is important in monitoring the course and response to therapy of certain muscular disorders. Creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and aldolase are the serum enzymes that are measured in clinical practice.
This topic will review the biochemistry of muscle enzymes and their use in clinical practice. The biochemistry and use of serum enzymes in patients with renal failure are discussed separately. (See "Serum enzymes in patients with renal failure" and "Serum cardiac biomarkers in patients with renal failure".)
Creatine kinase — Creatine kinase (CK) is the most widely used enzyme to diagnose and follow muscle disease. It is present in the highest concentrations in serum in response to muscle injury, is the most sensitive indicator of muscle injury, and is the best measure of the course of muscle injury [1].
CK is located on the inner mitochondrial membrane, on myofibrils, and in the muscle cytoplasm [2]. It is involved in cellular energy storage and transfer via two major effects:
●It catalyzes the production of high-energy adenosine triphosphate (ATP) via transfer of a phosphate from creatine phosphate, which is the major storage reservoir of energy during muscle rest, to adenosine diphosphate (ADP).

The Next Joey Porter? Cody Brown, DE/OLB, Connecticut
One of the most difficult positions to grade is quickly becoming one of the most sought after in the NFL. The 3-4 rush linebacker is rare in the NCAA, and the habit of turning collegiate defensive ends into stand-up players at the next level has left more than a few head men wondering if theyd be happy as a truck driver and not a coach.
Still, there are plenty of success stories. Like Joey Porter. A high school receiver turned Colorado State defensive end turned insane NFL sack machine, Porter is a perfect example of what can happen when the right player finds the right system. His 22 career sacks in Fort Collins, Colorado have transferred quite well to the NFL.
Cody Brown has an eerily similar skill set. When Porter came out, he slipped to the third round due to concerns about his ability to change directions and his lack of experience off the line. Brown has been criticized for the same shortcomings. Again, I know measurables arent everything, but the numbers match up. Both guys stand at about 6-2 244 pounds. Both have 40 times in the high 4.6 to 4.7 range with broad jumps over 10 feet. And, get ready for this, both notched 22 career sacks at mid-level programs.
Theres a chance that Brown wont ever make the impact that Porter has, but that doesnt mean he cant be feared. If the right coaches get a hold of him, he could develop into a pass-rushing terror in an aggressive 3-4 scheme like the one employed by Porters former team, the Steelers. Either way, Brown has Edward Scissorhands-style violence in his hands and a motor that wont quit. Hell probably be stuck in a situational role early on, but thats not always a bad thing. Just ask Porter.
Just a side note - the Broncos have already talked to / shown interest in this guy.

With new fund, Eaton Vance bond manager tops market
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Not long ago, Kathleen Gaffney was considered the obvious successor to bond guru Dan Fuss, with whom she co-managed the $21.9 billion Loomis Sayles Bond fund for nearly 20 years.
Now, for the first time since Gaffney jumped to competitor Eaton Vance and opened her own fund earlier this year, she is beating him.
Gaffney's $171 million Eaton Vance Bond fund returned 7.6 percent for the year through November 3, the best performance of any of the 319 multi-sector bond funds tracked by Morningstar. The Loomis Sayles fund, meanwhile, came in second with a 7.5 percent return.
It's an early strong performance for a bond fund manager who doesn't particularly like fixed income at the moment.
"The prospects for equities are more attractive right now," Gaffney said, citing the growing U.S. economy. As a result, she has approximately 15 percent of her fund's assets invested in stocks directly, while another 15 percent is in convertible bonds that can be turned into equities.
Some of the largest positions in her portfolio include shares in the stock of glass-maker Corning Inc and chip-maker Intel, and bonds that can convert into the stock of companies such as Chesapeake Energy and Goodyear Tire and Rubber. And she plans to add more European stocks to her portfolio soon.
Her focus on stocks is in large part due to the dim outlook for the bond market. As the Federal Reserve prepares to pull back on its bond-buying stimulus program, interest rates are widely expected to rise and cut into returns for fixed income.
As a result, multi-sector funds like Gaffney's, which have the freedom to invest in nearly any corner of the bond market and typically allow up to 20 percent of their portfolios to be invested in stocks as well, have become popular. Nearly $20 billion flowed into the category in 2012, according to Lipper, and investors have moved an average of nearly $10 billion a year into multi-sector funds over the last five years.
Her stake in convertible bonds is well above the category average of just under 1 percent of assets. Gaffney says that these securities are more attractive than junk bonds, whose yields hit a record low earlier this year in large part because the Federal Reserve's bond buying stimulus program pushed income-hungry investors into riskier debt.
"The valuation of the underlying equities are attractive," Gaffney said, compared with junk bonds where "you are not getting compensated for the credit risk that you're taking."
Her stake in equities isn't the only thing that sets Gaffney's fund apart. Where most bond managers focus conservatively on what could go wrong, Gaffney concentrates aggressively on where she thinks things could go right.
Only 15 percent of her portfolio is invested outside of the United States, which she says has the best growth prospects in the world right now. Half that percentage is in short-term Canadian government bonds that she uses as an alternative to U.S. Treasuries because they offer higher yields and a proximity to the U.S. economy.
Mexico makes up her second largest foreign position. Thanks to recent reforms that will make its energy and telecom industries more competitive, the country is "positioned in the sweet spot for what types of characteristics investors should look for," Gaffney said.
In all of her positions, Gaffney is looking for value. She recently added to bond positions in the metals and mining sector, for example, after commodity prices fell due to concerns about a slowdown in China. Gaffney wasn't fazed, in part because companies have an ability to adjust production over the long run and stabilize prices, she said. A position in Cliffs Natural Resources is now the eight-largest in her fund, according to Morningstar data.
She also expects to add to her positions in both European stocks and corporate bonds. "There are a number of elections over the next 12 to 18 months that have the potential for reform, and if that catches on, it will create potential for some significant headwinds," she said.
While Gaffney's fund is off to a strong start, it may be too soon to judge it a success, said Todd Rosenbluth, director of mutual fund research at S&P Capital IQ.
"We generally don't think investors can credit a manager of a new fund for the performance and track record of their old fund," he said. "There are too many variables, and it's a new team of analysts and flows that can affect returns."
Investors who want to jump in to Gaffney's fund will pay an average fee of $1.00 per $100, an expense ratio that Morningstar considers below average. Some share classes will also pay a sales load charge between 1 and 4.75 percent.

A Smart Group is essentially a saved search that is run automatically so editing the results goes against the basic defintion of the feature. You might try using the "Added to Library" and "Last Updated" fields to help keep track of newer items as they are added to your EndNote library. Jason Rollins, the EndNote team

Hatteras Indians. An Algonquian tribe living in 1701 on the sand banks of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina east of Pamlico sound, and frequenting Roanoke Island. Their single village, Sandbanks, had them only about 80 inhabitants. They showed traces of white blood and claimed that some of their ancestors were white. They may have been identical with the Croatan Indians with whom Raleigh's colonists at Roanoke Island are supposed to have taken refuge.

December 19, 2014
A lawyer says the family of a French flight attendant who perished in an Air France plane crash on June 1 over the Atlantic Ocean is suing the airline to force it to release information on what caused the tragedy.
The Airbus jet went down while flying from Rio de Janeiro to Paris. All 228 people aboard were killed.
The lawyer for Clara Amado's family says they have filed a civil suit against the airline. Jean-Claude Guidicelli says the family wants the company to disclose information on whether the plane's speed sensors were to blame for the crash.
Investigators believe the speed monitors could have contributed to the accident, and airlines around the world have been ordered to replace them.
Air France declined to comment.

Health Alert: Fitness Study
CINCINNATI (Liz Bonis) -- You probably know that exercise is good for the body and good for the mind.
This study found women who exercise about five hours a week, about an hour a day during the week, are able to improve body image in a big way. We stopped out at Sensible Fitness to tell you more about it.
Researchers found those who loved their bodies worked out about five hours a week and they felt better, had more confidence, and did have much better body image compared to those who only worked out less than two hours a week.
We know it is good for the physical health of the body, but this study shows its good for the mind as well. It might be really good for body image and help you really enjoy the day and want to get out of bed in the morning.

I never would have thought to look at Craigs list if it wasn't for this forum. Anyway, I got myself a chest freezer on the cheap for $50. It's a small one, but it could either 1) hold 2 fermenters for temperature controlled fermentation or 2) hold 3-4 kegs and a CO2 tank.
I happen to have 4 5gallon cornies I got off ebay recently, but here's my dilemma. I'd like to start lagering some different types of beer (Alts, Marzen and Octoberfest) mainly. I am also working SWMBO to get a new fridge so I get the old one and then that would hold about 6 cornies.
So, should I use the chest freezer for a fermenter and wait a few months for the new fridge, or just say screw it and turn it into a kegerator now because bottling sucks so bad.
Also, is it worth the extra few bucks for the digital temperature controller or is the dial good enough? I'm leaning digital but I've spent so much on the recent upgrade to all-grain I could use saving a few bucks!
Looking forward to some additional opinions as I'm leaning towards making it a ferementer now.
Primary - If it's not Scottish it's CRAP Ale
Primary Imperial IPA
Secondary -
Bottled and drinking: Hey!Hey! IPA, Land of Oz Barleywine #2, Caramel Creme Ale, Red Stripe Lager Clone
RIP: Oatmeal Stout, Octoberfestivus, 777 RPA, Fat Tire Clone (1st AG), Experimental Honey Brown
Make that thing a kegerator, you'll be happier with it in the short term and it's great for status within your group of friends ("Hey guys, guess what I've got on tap." sounds really good to me). Lagering seems like it's more of an experimentation thing.
Really it boils down to what you want to feed, your curiosity, or your overall happiness. If you're the curious type then go lagering, if you're more into the gratification side of homebrewing then go kegerator. And, above all RDWHAHB.
Yeah that's pretty much my dilemma. I do enjoy the mad scientest aspect of homebrewing but also having the kegs will let me make beer faster (bottling slows me way down!)
Thanks for the input. I suppose my decision will be made this weekend when I find out if the rest of my kegging equipment is scored for cheap of another Craigs list find!
I've never done it before.. but I can't imagine why you couldn't lager beer in one of your cornies..
then you can have 3 on tap and one lagering.. or.. 2 and 2...
everybody wins!!!
