"If you surrender completely to the moments as they pass, you live more richly those moments." – Anne Morrow Lindbergh
A Gift from the Sea is a charming well-designed, ground level home comfortable for 4-6 guests. The décor and wall colors were selected to be soothing after a long day enjoying all there is to do on the water or playing tourist.
Your vacation home is three lots in from the open water on a crystal-clear canal that's perfect for swimming or just watching as you sit on the back porch with a good book.
The galley style kitchen is well equipped for preparing the catch of the day or admiring on your way out the door as you enjoy a meal in one of the local's spots within a short drive or walk.
The den and dining room encompass one large space that's perfect for watching cable on the flat panel televison or just relaxing. From the sectional sofa you can watch the ever-changing sunsets the keys are famous for.
The bedrooms and baths are discussed below.

Key West only 29 miles - Marathon 18 miles
From our guest book: On January 30, 2009 the New York Times had an interesting article abut kayaking in the Lower Florida Keys.
My wife and I booked a week vacation stay at 'A Gift From the Sea' vacation rental. We had a wonderful time. Everything you could possibly need was supplied at the rental. The only thing you'll need are groceries which you can get about a mile up the street. The owners have done a great job setting up the home to be your home away from home. Located in the lower Keys your a short drive to Key West (approximately 1/2 hour) snorkling, diving, fishing, historical museums, the aquarium, sand beaches at Bahai Honda State Park, whatever you choose. Directly across the street from the home is Capt. Bill Rabito who's been guide fishing the Keys for nearly 45 years I highly recommend booking a charter with him.
From our guest book: We wanted a laid back, relaxing time and this was the right place. We did spend a day in Key West.
We liked Square Grouper and Annettes. We went to both twice. Our special treat was going to Little Palm Island Resort - Excellent dinner! We saw several pretty sunsets while we enjoyed a 'Happy Hour' before going out to dinner. We did enjoy our time at A Gift from the Sea. The house is attractive and nicely furnished. Like the front door and new TVs. The walks and driveway are nice addititions. We are snowbirds, spending our summers on a real Island - Kelly's Island on Lake Erie (Ohio). You've done a good job. Roger and Madeline W.
Big Pine Restaurant - big selection, plenty to eat. Fanci Seafood has an excellent selection.
People were friendly and the weather awesome.
The home is very clean and location is perfect! We enjoyed our time on Big Pine Key.
Kevin and Suzanne M and family Chad, Chuck, and Jillian
A thank you to Lynne and Alan for a magnificent and eventful week. Nice job on the home – all that we needed, except more time. I'm sad to leave.
Sitting and eating at the little table on the porch was a definite favorite.
Location is everything. A Gift from the Sea is located in Pine Channel Estates on Big Pine Key.
You are minutes from top ten dive spots (world famous Looe Key National Marine Sanctuary) and beaches (Bahia Honda State Park). A short boat ride from open water and reeling in the catch of the day.
Unique restaurants and groceries are located right on Big Pine Key.
Only 30 minutes from the airport and the hustle and bustle of Key West.
Day trips on the water for snorkeling, diving and fishing are within a short car ride.
From the boating canal you can reach the open water or explore the backcountry.
Big Pine Key Deer refuge is right on the island and our guests enjoy seeing the deer roaming the neighborhood.
Room to park your boat trailer in the yard and your boat at the protected seawall. Easy access to a free boat ramp.
All you need to bring is a book mark, bathing suit, and fishing pole.
Welcome to Margaritaville!
Other Activities: miniature golf, shopping,kayaking, boat rentals, day trips, snorkeling, jet skiing, wildlife viewing, gym, relaxing, eco -tourism

It's interesting to see Microsoft slowly unraveling the "Modern UI" to behave more like the desktop UI. They've added a power button to the Modern UI desktop so users can easily shutdown or restart the computer and added a search icon because users didn't intuitively know that they can just start typing to search.

The installation Dare to Pass, for instance, is a sort of archway formed by strands of rope enclosing a handful of large red balls, with another on the floor nearby. The wall-mounted Circle I, on the other hand, consists of LP records painted red and arranged to form a big circle. There are variations on these two pieces elsewhere in the show.
Other pieces feature balls of various sizes engaged in various activities: One sits at the base of a wooden ladder in Escape, ready to climb from the words PURPOSE IN LIFE at the bottom to SUCCESS stenciled on the wall at the top; another ball substitutes for the knob on a green door in Welcome; several balls rest on and around a sky-blue plastic playground slide in Exit or Entrance; eight bowling balls painted red make up Circle III, with a solitary blue outcast off to one side.
Here and there are photographs of red balls or bubbles in different contexts. Next to the big ball of acrylic and modeling paste Blow Me This Bubble, which resembles bubble gum, are four color photographs of people blowing bubbles with... bubble gum. A triptych of photos called Return to Origins features a pregnant woman with a big red circle painted on her belly.
The most ambitious -- and most powerful -- piece is the installation Peace Inside, which includes camouflaged netting and bowling balls with military helmets arrayed around a large, vertical rectangular box. Peer inside the box and you'll see your own eyes (plus a third eye in between -- how Riquezes does it, I have no idea) reflected in a mirror, along with what appears to be a dimly lighted corridor filled with red balls that seem to stretch into infinity.
A brochure and a handout for the show quote Riquezes: "[T]he red ball, playing a main part within the work, is an emblem of humanity, individual and/or universal, that is trapped, covered and a prisoner of schemes rigorously pre-established, of a world that wants to mold it to its convenience and perspectives, codifying it with a language many times subliminal, represented pictorially by a series of symbols..."
I regret reading this artspeak, as well as the even more highfalutin musings in an accompanying essay by Miami "art historian/sociologist of art" Dr. Milagros Bello. Silly me -- I just admired Riquezes' work for its whimsicality and sense of plain old fun.
A final note: As part of the only artists-in-residence program in the area, the Coral Springs Museum has commissioned Jan Kolenda and John Foster to create The Everglades -- A Relief Ceramic Tile Wall Mural. The 54-by-17-foot tile mural will be permanently installed on the museum's south side in time for a September dedication ceremony. Between now and then, supporters of the arts are invited to participate in the project by buying a square foot (nine tiles) or a square yard (81 tiles) of the mural. Call the museum for details.

Need a Raspberry Pi Hardware hacking forum
DIY expansion board from Mike Cook | Raspberry PiRight now, hes got instructions on his website which will show you how to make your own breakout board (a simple version and a couple of versions which protect the Pis GPIO lines) to give you easy access to the Raspberry Pis GPIO pins and allow you to get to work on hardware projects.
I think the whole structure needs re-doing - too many very small niches before the niches have actually got any content/something to talk about. We should start with this general one and then expand when needed when a few threads on similiar subjects start coming up.
But +1 for hardware hacking (inc Arduino interface stuff - cant wait to put these babies together when my PI arrives!)

The hierarchical control structure is inspired by the three-layer control structure of largescale AC power systems and it is divided into primary, secondary and tertiary control. This structure permits to create an easy interaction between power dispatch and the lower controllers. Moreover, a generalized voltage droop (GVD) characteristic is also proposed which facilitates control issues inside the Multi terminal HVDC grids. In the proposed control structure, the coefficients of the GVD characteristics are set based on the solution of a DC power flow algorithm, executed in the secondary control level. 2014-05-06T16:15:20Z Optimized control of multi-terminal DC GridsUsing particle swarm optimization http://hdl.handle.net/2117/22240 Title: Optimized control of multi-terminal DC GridsUsing particle swarm optimization Authors: Rouzbehi, Kumars; Miranian, Arash; Luna Alloza, Álvaro; Rodríguez Cortés, Pedro Abstract: This paper addresses the important issue of Multi-Terminal DC (MTDC) grid control strategy based on the particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique. The MTDC grid is controlled by the concept of vector control, in which the AC currents and voltages are transformed into the rotating directquadrature (d-q) reference quantities which are subsequently used for decoupled control of the active and reactive powers as well as the DC and AC voltages. The paper employs an efficient PSO algorithm for optimal tuning of the controllers' parameters in an MTDC grid. In addition, voltage droop control scheme is utilized to ensure the balance of active power within the MTDC grid. Simulation results that has obtained through detailed modeling of a four-terminal DC grid, demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed approach. Comparison to controllers optimized by genetic algorithm (GA) also confirmed the favorable performance of the proposed PSO-tuned controllers. 2014-03-18T09:43:24Z Comprehensive analogy between conventional AC grids and DC grids characteristics http://hdl.handle.net/2117/22239 Title: Comprehensive analogy between conventional AC grids and DC grids characteristics Authors: Rouzbehi, Kumars; Gavriluta, Catalin; Candela García, José Ignacio; Luna Alloza, Álvaro; Rodríguez Cortés, Pedro Abstract: The high penetration of renewable energy resources, such as wind and photovoltaic, as well as the development of power electronics devices play an important role in the development of DC grids. However, the evolution of DC-systems from point-to-point connections to 'Multi-terminal' DC (MTDC) networks is not so straight forward. At the current moment there is a large gap in the literature concerning the dynamics, control and operation of MTDC networks. On the other hand, conventional AC networks have been studied exhaustively in the past decades providing for a rich inspiration source. In this paper we are going to establish a comprehensive analogy between the characteristics of conventional AC grids and the emerging DC grids. The key similarities and differences between the two types of grids are identified in an attempt to better understand the characteristics and behavior of DC grids. In the end, the extent to which concepts like planning for operation and control of AC grids can be conveniently extrapolated to DC grids is evaluated. 2014-03-18T09:30:56Z Adaptive droop for primary control in MTDC networks with energy storage http://hdl.handle.net/2117/22148 Title: Adaptive droop for primary control in MTDC networks with energy storage Authors: Gavriluta, Catalin; Candela García, José Ignacio; Luna Alloza, Álvaro; Rocabert Delgado, Joan; Rodríguez Cortés, Pedro Abstract: Multi-terminal DC (MTDC) systems are drawing a lot of interest lately in applications related to distributed generation, especially in those that integrate wind or PV systems together with energy storage. This paper proposes an improved strategy for the primary control of MTDC integrating energy storage (ES) units. The concept is based on the combination of a droop control method and dc-bus signaling in order to provide a generic approach to be used as basis for a hierarchical control structure in a multi-point DC-bus system. The proposed method considers the State of Charge (SoC) of the energy storage system at the primary control level, yielding a surface characteristic for a droop control that depends both on the SoC and the dc bus voltage. Finally, a method for designing and tuning the system is proposed and analyzed theoretically and through simulations and experiments on a 10kVA system with energy storage. 2014-03-17T13:08:13Z A generalized voltage droop strategy for control of multi-terminal DC grids http://hdl.handle.net/2117/22092 Title: A generalized voltage droop strategy for control of multi-terminal DC grids Authors: Rouzbehi, Kumars; Miranian, Arash; Luna Alloza, Álvaro; Rodríguez Cortés, Pedro Abstract: This paper proposes a generalized voltage droop (GVD) control strategy for control and power sharing in voltage source converter (VSC)-based multi-terminal DC (MTDC) grids. In the proposed approach, the conventional voltage droop characteristics of voltage-regulating VSC stations are replaced by the GVD characteristics. The proposed GVD control strategy can be operated in three different control modes including conventional voltage droop control, fixed active power control and fixed DC voltage control by proper adjustment of the GVD characteristics of the voltage-regulating converters. The proposed strategy improves the control and power-sharing capabilities of the conventional voltage droop, and enhances its maneuverability. Simulation results, obtained by detailed modeling in a four-terminal high voltage DC grid demonstrated the efficacy of the proposed approach and its flexibility in active power sharing. Moreover, based on the obtained results, switching between operating mode of the GVD control approach does not results in oscillations of the active powers flowing inside the MTDC grids. 2014-03-17T10:15:12Z Decentralized control of MTDC networks with energy storage and distributed generation http://hdl.handle.net/2117/22029 Title: Decentralized control of MTDC networks with energy storage and distributed generation Authors: Gavriluta, Catalin; Candela García, José Ignacio; Citro, Costantino; Luna Alloza, Álvaro; Rodríguez Cortés, Pedro Abstract: Multi-terminal dc (MTDC) networks are drawing a lot of interest lately in applications related to distributed generation, especially in those that integrate energy storage. Several approaches for controlling the operation of such systems have been proposed in the literature; however the existing structures can be significantly enhanced. This paper proposes an improved primary control layer, based on droop and dc-bus signaling to serve as a base framework for implementing a hierarchical control structure in a MTDC system. As it will be further discussed in this work, five operating bands as well as various droop characteristics for different elements connected to the dc-bus were defined. For the energy storage the state of charge (SoC) was taken into account at the primary control level and it was included in the droop characteristic, creating a two variables droop surface. The proposed control strategy was validated through simulation and experimental results obtained from a case study that involves a micro dc network composed of a PV generator, a lead-acid battery and one connection point to the ac grid. © 2013 IEEE. 2014-03-13T13:56:54Z Exploring the range of impedance conditioning by virtual inductance for grid connected voltage source converters http://hdl.handle.net/2117/21767 Title: Exploring the range of impedance conditioning by virtual inductance for grid connected voltage source converters Authors: Suul, Jon Are; Molinas, Marta; Rodríguez Cortés, Pedro Abstract: Conditioning of network impedance by insertion of a virtual inductance as an inherent feature of the converter control system has the potential to extend the range of stable operation of the overall system. This paper presents a scenario in which such potential is explored and its range of application is identified. It shows first that implementation of a virtual inductance is naturally suited for combination with Virtual Flux-based control systems, and that it can be extended to the more general case of a virtual reactance. The paper then presents the structure of a control system for operation under unbalanced conditions, where the virtual inductance directly influences the current reference calculation. Compared with the standard approach of unity power factor control of grid integrated converters, the suggested technique allows for improving the stability range of converters operating in high-impedance grids, and for remote point control of reactive power or power factor. 2014-02-26T15:46:43Z Analysis and comparison of battery energy storage technologies for grid applications http://hdl.handle.net/2117/21714 Title: Analysis and comparison of battery energy storage technologies for grid applications Authors: SAEZ-DE-IBARRA, A.; Milo, Aitor; Gaztañaga, Haizea; Etxeberria Otadui, Ion; Rodríguez Cortés, Pedro; Bacha, Seddik; Debusschere, V. Abstract: Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESSs) could contribute to the generation/consumption balance of the grid and could provide advanced functionalities at different grid levels (generation, T&D, end-user and RES integration). In this paper an analysis and comparison of Battery Energy Storage (BES) technologies for grid applications is carried out. The comparison is focused on the most installed technologies in the recent experimental BESS installations. Furthermore, the paper presents a new methodology aimed at selecting the most suitable BES technology for a specific grid application. This methodology defines a priority level for each technical and economical characteristic of the BES technologies. Finally, the proposed methodology is applied for a specific grid application confirming its contribution in the selection of the best-suited technology. 2014-02-24T10:26:02Z Design of AC-DC power converters with LCL + tuned trap line filter using Si IGBT and SiC MOSFET modules http://hdl.handle.net/2117/21686 Title: Design of AC-DC power converters with LCL + tuned trap line filter using Si IGBT and SiC MOSFET modules Authors: Piasecki, S.; Mir Cantarellas, Antonio; Rabkowski, J.; Rodríguez Cortés, Pedro Abstract: This paper presents a method for improving the design procedure of AC-DC power converters for power generation applications. The proposed methodology is based on selection of the most convenient configuration, in terms of switching frequency and design of the line filter, in order to minimize the overall losses in the system. In this work two types of semiconductor devices are considered: silicon IGBT and silicon carbide MOSFET for the design of a 100 kVA system, and they performance is compared. The AC-DC converter parameters, the design methodology and preliminary simulation results for representatives of Si IGBT and SiC MOSFET modules are presented. 2014-02-21T09:17:59Z Grid harmonic detection and system resonances indentification in wave power plant applications http://hdl.handle.net/2117/21595 Title: Grid harmonic detection and system resonances indentification in wave power plant applications Authors: Nisak, Khairul; Mir Cantarellas, Antonio; Luna Alloza, Álvaro; Candela García, José Ignacio; Rodríguez Cortés, Pedro Abstract: There is a growing interest in electrical grid connection of single unit Wave Energy Converters (WECs), as well as the multiple units based Wave Power Plant (WPP) applications. Due to the increasing integration of high power converters in WPP, additional concerns on the harmonic current mitigation of WEC device arise which requires the grid filter installation. Furthermore, the identification and appropriate mitigation of additional harmonics at the WPP level is needed, as any inductances and capacitors of the WPP can interact with the resonant frequency of the entire system and lead to detrimental effects on equipment. The present paper focuses on the potential harmonic studies of a realistic proposed WPP layout, in which the system resonances are identified by performing the frequency scan and modal analysis (HRMA) methods. The later technique has the ability of determining the participation factor of each bus, finding in this way the nodes in the system that have more influence on the obtained results. In this way, the most suitable nodes in which additional filtering solutions should be implemented can be identified. 2014-02-17T10:33:05Z Grid connection control of VSC-based high power converters for wave energy applications http://hdl.handle.net/2117/21566 Title: Grid connection control of VSC-based high power converters for wave energy applications Authors: Mir Cantarellas, Antonio; Rakhshani, Elyas; Remón, D.; Rodríguez Cortés, Pedro Abstract: In the wave energy sector, an increasing concern regarding the grid connection of wave energy converters is recently being experienced, as well as in the main challenges resulting from the grid integration of large scale wave power plants. This increasing interest arise due to the near-commercial developments of several wave energy converter devices, which have already proved its hydrodynamic and power take-off performance. Therefore, this paper proposes a suitable power processing system configuration and its suitable control design used for interfacing the grid connection of such high power wave energy converters while ensuring acceptable grid connection standards compliance. An advanced filter topology will be introduced based on the superposition of LCL+Trap filters as an alternative solution to the conventional LCL filters, as it allows for smaller filter size, while ensuring a reliable and cost-effective power processing solution. Finally, the evaluation of the filter design as well as the power converter control will be introduced in simulation with the purpose of validating the grid connection of wave energy converters. 2014-02-13T10:03:57Z Analysis of ferroresonance effects in distribution networks with distributed source units http://hdl.handle.net/2117/21564 Title: Analysis of ferroresonance effects in distribution networks with distributed source units Authors: Monadi, Mehdi; Luna Alloza, Álvaro; Candela García, José Ignacio; Rocabert Delgado, Joan; Fayezizadeh, Mostafa; Rodríguez Cortés, Pedro Abstract: The connection of Distributed Generation (DG) units to existing networks may give rise to harmful effects on the network and the DG units itself. Therefore, due to increasing penetration of DG units, it is important to consider these effects in order to avoid some of harmful events. Ferroresonance is one of these destructive phenomena. Over voltages due to this phenomena can damage devices which are connected to the network. In DG systems, due to the use of capacitor banks which are used for VAR compensation, grid connection filters, etc. ferroresonance may appear. Also, special operations like islanding, may lead these systems to ferroresonance. In traditional systems ferroresonance normally appear after there is an unbalance in the system. Nevertheless, for networks with significant penetration of DG units, the situation that gives rise to ferroresonance may be different from traditional systems and they can happen without any unbalancing occurrence. In this paper a distribution system integrating wind (WT) and photovoltaic (PV) power systems has been evaluated in order to analyze the performance of ferroresonance in such systems. Finally, the most appropriate techniques to prevent its appearance, and the associated over voltages, have been studied and implemented using PSCAD/EMTDC. 2014-02-13T09:18:11Z Control of grid-connected power converters based on a virtual admittance control loop http://hdl.handle.net/2117/21486 Title: Control of grid-connected power converters based on a virtual admittance control loop Authors: Rodríguez Cortés, Pedro; Candela García, José Ignacio; Citro, Costantino; Rocabert Delgado, Joan; Luna Alloza, Álvaro Abstract: The connection of electronic power converters to the electrical network is increasing mainly due to massive integration of renewable energy systems. However, the electrical dynamic performance of these converters does not match the behavior of the network, which is mainly formed by generation facilities based on big synchronous generation systems. Depending on the desired electrical operation mode different control structures can be implemented in the converters in order to get adapted with the grid conditions. However, changing between different control structures and operation is not an optimal solution, as the resulting system results complex and is not highly robust. As an alternative, this paper presents a new control technique for grid connected power converters based on the concept of virtual admittance. The proposed control permits to emulate the electrical performance of generation facilities based on classical synchronous generators with a power converter, with no need of implementing different control structures, giving rise to a system that provides a friendly and robust operation with the network. 2014-02-10T08:49:48Z

MISSOURI - Tensions over the shooting of an unarmed African-American teenager by police are boiling over in Missouri.
Police in riot gear stood alert as looting broke out overnight in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson.
A few thousand people crammed the streets for a vigil for 18-year-old Michael Brown.
Police say Brown was shot multiple times Saturday afternoon in a scuffle involving a Ferguson police officer and two people.
After the vigil, people looted local businesses and lit small fire.
There were no immediate reports of injuries.
Leaders in the area are calling for calm, as the investigation into Brown's death continues.

Agreement on Hormone Therapy Use By 15 Top Medical Organizations
The purpose of this statement is to reassure women and their providers that hormone therapy is acceptable and relatively safe for healthy, symptomatic, recently postmenopausal women. Over the last 10 years, there has been a complete abandonment of hormone therapy in some settings accompanied by reluctance to treat women who would benefit from relief of their symptoms. As a result, some women have sought unproven alternative therapies.
"We believe that too many symptomatic women are missing out on the proven benefits of hormone therapy because the results of the WHI, which studied the long-term use of hormones to prevent chronic disease, were misinterpreted for women with menopausal symptoms" said Dr. Margery Gass, Executive Director for NAMS. "Women and clinicians are frustrated by the many conflicting recommendations. That's why we initiated this effort to bring these notable medical organizations together in agreement regarding the use of hormone therapy."
Roger Lobo, MD, Past President of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine added, "Physicians can help patients determine, based on their own particular characteristics and history, whether or not they are good candidates for hormone therapy and what type of HT will provide them the greatest relief at the lowest risk. A decade of research and analysis has shown us that the generalized conclusions of the WHI do not apply to younger women at the beginning of the menopausal transition."
"The results of the WHI and the conflicting reports that followed led many women to believe hormone therapy may not be a safe treatment for menopausal symptoms," said Janet E. Hall, MD, immediate Past President of The Endocrine Society. "We want women to know that there are options out there for relief of their menopausal symptoms. The level of risk depends on the individual, her health history, age, and the number of years since her menopause began."
When it comes to the safety and effectiveness of hormone therapy, one commonly heard lament is, "Even the experts don't agree." This statement was prepared to address this misperception by presenting evidence-based key concepts about hormone therapy to assist women and their clinicians in making informed decisions about use of hormone therapy when appropriate.
Major points of agreement among the societies include:
- Hormone therapy is an acceptable option for the relatively young (up to age 59 or within 10 years of menopause) and healthy women who are bothered by moderate to severe menopausal symptoms. Individualization is key in the decision to use hormone therapy.
- If women have only vaginal dryness or discomfort with intercourse, the preferred treatments are low doses of vaginal estrogen.
- Women who still have a uterus need to take a progestogen (progesterone or a similar product) along with the estrogen to prevent cancer of the uterus. Women who have had their uterus removed can take estrogen alone.
- Both estrogen therapy and estrogen with progestogen therapy increase the risk of blood clots in the legs and lungs, similar to birth control pills, patches, and rings. Although the risks of blood clots and stroke increase with either type of hormone therapy, the risk is rare in women ages 50-59.
- An increased risk in breast cancer is seen with 5 or more years of continuous estrogen with progestogen therapy, possibly earlier. The risk decreases after hormone therapy is stopped.

The suspect in the Arizona shooting rampage that critically injured a US congresswoman has pleaded not guilty to an expanded, 49-count indictment, accusing him of killing six people and wounding 13 others.
The plea on Wednesday came shortly before the federal judge presiding over the case sided with prosecutors in ordering Jared Loughner to undergo a psychiatric evaluation to determine whether he is mentally competent to stand trial.
US District Judge Larry Burns set a May 25 hearing date on competency despite objections from defence lawyer Judy Clarke, who said such a proceeding was premature and could interfere with her ability to build trust with her client.
Loughner is accused of opening fire with a semiautomatic pistol on US congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and a crowd of bystanders attending a political event outside a grocery store in January.Six people, including a federal judge, were killed and 13 were wounded including Giffords, an Arizona Democrat, who was shot through the head.
In asking for a mental evaluation, prosecutors cited widely publicised accounts of erratic, paranoid behaviour by Loughner in the months before the shooting rampage, including homemade videos posted to YouTube in which Loughner talks about mistrust of the government and mind control.The return of the new, expanded indictment against Loughner launched a formal US Justice Department review of the case to decide whether to seek the death penalty or life in prison.

Lou Cabron
Lou Cabron commented on the blog post S&P Plays IMF To USA
Actually, S&P seems genuinely interested in getting Republicans to surrender to tax increases. In part they issued the downgrade specifically because "It appears that for now, new revenues have dropped down on the menu of policy options…"
And they even reiterate that clearly in the full text of their announcement, saying they're pessimistic because "…reaching an agreement on raising revenues is less likely than we previously assumed."
Paul Krugman thinks the markets tanked on Monday because of one hedgefund manager — and not as a reaction to the downgrade. (A theory which is buttressed by the massive counter-upswing on Tuesday.) He and others have argued that the S&P downgrade is irrelevant anyways to the U.S. credit. But the one good that might come out of it is it might convince Republicans to finally agree to some tax increases.

NEVIS, Minn. (WCCO) – A glitch caused quite a panic for parents in one Minnesota school district.
On Tuesday morning, 520 parents got automated messages from the Nevis school district saying their children weren't at school.
The automated service was intended for just two students whose absences had not been verified.
The school dealt with hundreds of calls from confused parents.
The glitch was fixed, and a second call was sent to parents to disregard the first call.

Picking All-Stars no easy chore
NEW YORK (AP) -- Without regard to fan or player balloting, here are our selections for the 85th All-Star game July 15 at Target Field, home of the Minnesota Twins since 2010.
There are 34 spots on each roster, with at least 13 reserved for pitchers. Every major league club must be represented.
The deadline for fan voting was midnight Thursday. Rosters will be announced Sunday night. The winning league, which gets home-field advantage in the World Series, has won five consecutive championships.
American League:
First Base: Coming off consecutive MVP awards, Detroit slugger Miguel Cabrera gets the start even though Chicago rookie Jose Abreu and Toronto's Edwin Encarnacion have more homers at this power-packed position. Encarnacion is listed as a designated hitter on the fan ballot, but he's played the vast majority of games at first base. Oakland bopper Brandon Moss was the toughest player to leave off the squad.
Second Base: The surprise starter is pint-sized Houston dynamo Jose Altuve. Seattle's Robinson Cano and Detroit's Ian Kinsler, both producing with new teams, are on the bench.
Shortstop: Yankees captain Derek Jeter takes a bow in his final season, though he hasn't done much damage at the plate. Alexei Ramirez of the White Sox beats out Kansas City's Alcides Escobar for the backup role.
Third Base: Adrian Beltre has been a bright spot in a miserable year for banged-up Texas. He earns the starting job. Kyle Seager is enjoying a breakout season in Seattle, and Oakland's Josh Donaldson also makes it after getting snubbed a year ago. At last check, Donaldson had a big lead in fan balloting.
Catcher: Salvador Perez makes his second straight All-Star squad for Kansas City, and this time he's the starter. Kurt Suzuki represents the hometown team in his first season with the Twins. It was very difficult to deny Derek Norris of the Athletics, who has been so productive in limited at-bats.
Outfield: Mike Trout of the Los Angeles Angels starts in center, with Baltimore newcomer Nelson Cruz in left and Toronto's Jose Bautista in right. Cruz had a comfortable lead at DH in fan voting, but he's actually spent more time in the outfield. The reserves are Cleveland's Michael Brantley, Baltimore center fielder Adam Jones and Oakland's Yoenis Cespedes.
Designated Hitter: Victor Martinez of the Tigers has nearly as many home runs as strikeouts. Amazing. Those numbers help put him in the starting lineup over Boston stalwart David Ortiz, last year's World Series MVP.
Starting Pitchers: Mariners ace Felix Hernandez gets his first All-Star start. He's joined on the staff by Japanese right-handers Masahiro Tanaka of the Yankees and Yu Darvish of the Rangers, along with Angels first-timer Garrett Richards, reigning Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer and Tigers teammate Rick Porcello. The left-handers are Toronto's Mark Buehrle, Oakland's Scott Kazmir, Chicago's Chris Sale and Tampa Bay's David Price. ... Ortiz and Price aren't exactly chummy. Could make for an interesting clubhouse.
Relievers: Now that Mariano Rivera has retired, someone else gets a chance to anchor the bullpen. Red Sox closer Koji Uehara, Kansas City's Greg Holland and A's lefty Sean Doolittle all have what it takes.
National League:
First Base: Arizona slugger Paul Goldschmidt is the starter at a spot loaded with splendid hitters. Behind him are Atlanta's Freddie Freeman, Chicago's Anthony Rizzo and Washington's Adam LaRoche. Rejuvenated in Colorado, Justin Morneau serves as the DH — giving Minnesota fans a former Twins star to cheer.
Second Base: Dodgers speedster Dee Gordon gets the nod thanks to all those stolen bases. Chase Utley returns for Philadelphia following knee problems, and steady bat Daniel Murphy represents the Mets.
Shortstop: Troy Tulowitzki of the Rockies is the runaway choice, backed up by Hanley Ramirez from Los Angeles.
Third Base: It's a pair of unexpected first-timers at the hot corner in Todd Frazier from Cincinnati and reserve Anthony Rendon from Washington.
Catcher: Another surprise behind the plate, where Milwaukee's Jonathan Lucroy starts over two established stars: Buster Posey of the Giants and Yadier Molina of the Cardinals. They both make the roster, but Miguel Montero of the Diamondbacks barely gets squeezed out. His numbers deserve recognition.
Outfield: NL MVP Andrew McCutchen from Pittsburgh is in center, flanked by Miami strongman Giancarlo Stanton in left and Yasiel Puig of the Dodgers in right. The second-string unit is comprised of Brewers center fielder Carlos Gomez, Braves slugger Justin Upton and San Francisco's Hunter Pence.
Starting Pitchers: Cardinals right-hander Adam Wainwright also warrants his first start in an All-Star game. The rest of the group includes Reds teammates Johnny Cueto and Alfredo Simon, Zack Greinke and Josh Beckett from the Dodgers, veteran Tim Hudson of the Giants and youngster Julio Teheran of the Braves. The left-handers are two-time Cy Young Award winner Clayton Kershaw (Dodgers) and Madison Bumgarner (Giants). the Brewers' Kyle Lohse was the hardest omission of all.
Relievers: Francisco Rodriguez, closing again in Milwaukee, punctuates a renaissance season with his first All-Star selection in five years. Rounding out the bullpen are Atlanta's Craig Kimbrel, San Diego's Huston Street and Washington's Rafael Soriano.

I've been experiencing some weird behavior with my gnome-terminal. When I open it, without executing any script, just from the unity dash it closes itself after about 10 minutes. Regardless if I did anything with it, like git command or executing bash scripts or I just cd into my Downloads directory
Something I thing is important to mention: I am using the Ultimate Bashrc file , although I've been using it for a long time and this is the first time I've had any problems. I added some changes on my own and I also read the whole thing. Did not see anything that can make the window close on itself

Gongs belong to the oldest and most important musical instruments of South East Asia. Their origins can be traced back to the second millennium B.C., but it is assumed they are much older.
Gary's gongs are tuned to the energy of the planets. These planet gongs resonate harmonically with the cycles of the cosmos, communicating to us what has been known since antiquity as the "music of the spheres". People consistently have powerfully healing experiences.
Gary also just received a new shipment of Anandalite, which is a rare vibrational crystal that comes from only one mine in central India. These crystals help deepen the intensity of the state of samadhi that many people experience during the vibrational experience. He'll have them there for use during the Gong Bath and also for sale so you can take them home to your own sanctuary.
We look forward to sharing this magical experience with you. Please bring friends and loved ones, but leave children at home. The vibrations are often times too much for young children. You will be laying down for the whole meditation, so please feel free to bring blankets and cushions.
Gary Fishman became interested in Zen and Tibetan Buddhism 40 years ago. He received a degree in philosophy at the University of Colorado. He has been practicing Ashtanga and Power Yoga for twelve years and Kundalini for seven years.

Since then he has studied and become certified in Crystal Healing with Luna and Karen Kuk-Nagle. He is also certified in all three levels of Reiki, Kundalini Reiki and Himalayan Vibrational Healing under the teachings of Richard Rudis.

England and Yorkshire batsman Joe Root had to be satisfied with fielding practice as he made his comeback from injury against Lancashire.
The 23-year-old broke his thumb batting against West Indies in England's ODI series victory in Antigua seven weeks ago and was forced to miss the ICC World Twenty20.
Yorkshire put Lancashire into bat after winning the toss and the home side reached 201 for two by the close of a rain-hit opening day, with Root not called on to bowl.

Local phone books in CDROM format could prove handy, save trees
December 28, 2010 | 7:15 am
By Chris Meadows
While I was out and about last night, I happened to notice a CDROM stand on the counter of a local print and copy shop. It was a free CD version of "Names & Numbers", one of the local telephone directories. Curious, I picked it up and took it home to give it a run-through.
Though I have only taken a cursory glance over it, I am actually fairly impressed. Though the device has a Windows autorun and installer built in, it can also be run off the CD without needing to be installed. At heart it seems to be implemented in simple HTML, meaning that it should be compatible with anything that has a CDROM drive and a web browser.
Even the directory pages themselves are in HTML—not some encapsulated, DRMed format that can only be read or searched with an executable. (A far cry from some early PC phone book apps I played with back in the late '80s to early '90s.) They're formatted to impersonate the look of a white pages or yellow pages page, but at heart they're unencrypted plain vanilla HTML; viewing source reveals the names, addresses, and phone numbers of everyone right there in plain text (albeit with a lot of HTML style stuff surrounding that text). The white pages and textual entries in the yellow pages could quite readily be data mined if someone wrote the right programs
There is also a search box that lets you search the directory—it takes longer if you're browsing on CD than if you install it on the hard drive, of course. It seems to work pretty well. In fact, it works better than the search function on Names & Numbers's website, which couldn't find my uncle's number when I punched his name in at all whereas the one on the CD pulled it right up.
I have a number of ordinary tree-killing paper phone books in my apartment—I can't seem to avoid getting them; they get left on my doorstep every so often whether I want them or not. And I'm not entirely averse to having them.
Sometimes I'll still go and look in one from time to time—while it's easy to dig up the phone number of any specific place online if I know the name (even if I'm away from the 'net, I can text the name to 466453 and have Google look it up for me), paper phonebooks still rule the roost when it comes to having all the numbers in a given yellow pages category available at my fingertips at once. (I should get around to sticking one in my car, for use with my cell phone when I'm not able to get to the Internet, too.)
But this might just be a better alternative to the paper phone book for me. I get the advantage of all the numbers in a category at my fingertips, plus I can copy and paste the phone number into Google Voice to make a call.
And who knows, it could save some trees.

Smartphone size no obstacle to long reading
I like the idea of CD-ROM phone books, especially for business listings… it's too easy to get individual listings from directory assistance (assuming they haven't opted out of being listed, which happens so often these days). And it's clearly better than felling entire forests to keep us stocked in phone books!
