Finally got out flying yesterday with my 70mm F16. It had the Turnigy XK2850-B-3000kv with the CS 70/10 in it on 5S.
Was able to hand launch 4 times. Never did that before with this plane. It was very quiet and without much swoosh sound. Maybe the lack of a thrust tube and a huge inlet, just not sure. It flew with authority, very nice. It came down all 4 time's warm, but not overly hot. This was supposed to be my 4S motor, but decided to try it in flight on 5S. ... |

Well, if the winds ever get under 10 mph around here, I'll do the same. Freewing F-16 will be the test bed for the CS 10 blade.
Spend a little time last night with the SK3 3300kv outrunner mounted up in a generic shroud (StarMax, I think...) and a 10 blade fan. Mostly it was to punish a 4s 5000mAh 30C lipo I have that's behaving badly - I wanted to cycle that batt to see if it could be revived. However, the testing did reveal a few interesting conditions. First, even without a lip on the shroud the fan was pulling a good 1500g. Second, even after 90 - 120 seconds of WOT the motor was right at 98* - the battery was up at 120*. I didn't have the meter hooked in since the intent was to pull the batt hard. Based on this, tonight I will re-do the tests with the meter installed, and get some more data. I really wish I had an inlet lip for this shroud, too. |

.. I had just installed a rate hold gyro in it, first time doing that as well. I'm now a fan of rate hold gyro's on the ail's if you want to fly in windy conditions. Very cool, 12-15mph was like 5mph once I got the gyro adjusted. It was a cheap detrum GY48V. I believe mine is a freewing as well resold under the exceed label. ... |

So, if you've calculated a rotor gives out 1lbs of thrust at 1000rpm the voltage always has to support that RPM no matter what the cell count is to give like performance. 1500 watts on a 5 cell usually is going to dip voltage less than 1500 watts on a 4 cell. Dips of .02 across the cells can result in lower RPM logically, IE the reason I like to know voltages during runs ( ) Check your packs per cell voltage at WOT with the MB1\black tornado motor and the CS 10 rotor....make sure you don't have a lazy cell or one that's about to pop. |

This is a bigger, composite airframe, not a foamy. AUW will probably be in the 4LB range. After seeing the video posted earlier in the thread with the PZ Habu and E-Flite BL32 motor, I was convinced that was the motor to beat, but test results seem to indicate otherwise. Numbers don't lie, do they? Any thoughts? |

I maidened my 70mm F4 Phantom last Thursday, winds 12 to 15 with gusts 20+. Went up twice, back down twice with no damage, but flight was only correcting what the wind did to it. Couldn't consider trimming, as I had no idea what to trim or which way to go . Looking forward to sunny, calmer days..... The gyro came from HPartz? |

Looks like the calculated RPMs to thrust have been consistent so that's what I've been going by and get same thrust no matter what cell count I use as long as motor can turn the energy into RPms |

They head lock and rate hold with little fuss..... there are some bigger ones that I like also if you have the room and I think they're still the same cost around 12-13usd |

I was thinking 2800KV because it's a good "in-between" range for both 5S and 6S configurations. 2500KV would be cooler on 6S but might not perform as well on 5S. I am going to order a motor today and funds are limited so no option to get both . Any other votes one way or the other (2500 vs 2800)? Thanks all! |

Calling all California Republicans: Step up!
When I tell people I'm from California (and very proud of it) I get one of two reactions: A nod of understanding and jealous delight at meeting someone from the Golden State, or a wary smile and disbelief at everything I say henceforth.
California is a great place to live, especially if you fall in a minority group. Because in California – particularly in the Bay Area and Los Angeles – you won't feel like a minority. Read the rest of this entry »
Pink collar jobs perpetuate wage gap between men and women
Midge Wilson, a professor of psychology at DePaul University, came of age when there were very few women in academia. The absence of female voices spurred a career focused on researching gender issues and racial discrimination. Wilson, now 57, talks about the wage gap between men and women and how ethnicity factors into the equation.
Behind the name: second-generation Americans embrace their cultural identity
Have you ever been offended by someone's mispronunciation of your name? A misspelling? Why did the well-loved storybook character Anne Shirley feel she had to introduce herself as Anne with an "e" to everyone she met?
Perhaps because we intuitively associate our name with our identity – and any distortion of our name distorts our identity. Read the rest of this entry »
Does a diverse nation need a diverse media?
We've all heard the doom facing mainstream media: the downfall of print, the flawed money-making model of online, and the get-it-free attitude debate over the future of print and the Web. Still, even with today's financial woes, one part of the journalism business is poised to thrive – ethnic media.
Behind the name: Anthonia Akitunde
People often correct Anthonia Akitunde when she tells them to call her "Tomi."
"Don't you mean Toni, short for Anthonia?" they ask. Perhaps surprisingly, they also question the "h" in Anthonia.
They don't know that Tomi is short for Oluwatomi, Akitunde's given, Nigerian first name. And until the fifth grade, she was Tomi, especially to her parents, immigrants who passed their cultural pride on to her. Read the rest of this entry »
A new frontier for ethnic media
The Good: Ethnic media readership is growing
The Great: Which means ethnic media can reach more people and grow too
The Even Better: Which means more coverage of issues related to these minority groups

Stormwater Charges on La Crosse Water Bills SoonSetting up a stormwater utility in La Crosse hasn't been simple. City public works director Dale Hexom. Despite some billing complications with the utility, Hexom expects the first stormwater charges to appear on city water bills after the first of the year. Typical homeowner's quarterly water bill will increase by about 14 bucks. See Cougar! Make Noise, Walk AwayIf you should see a cougar in the woods, you might want to wave your arms around and make a lot of noise to scare the cat off. And, in Wisconsin, it's conceivable that you could have that cougar meeting. Because a big cat was caught on a trail cam near Mauston within the last week. Pretty rare sighting, says DNR biologist Adrian Wydeven Taxpayers will get a shot city spending planOwners of that hundred thousand dollar home can expect to still pay just a hair under fifteen hundred dollars in taxes to the city of La Crosse for 2012 if a proposed operating budget gets approved next month. The city's tax levy would remain stagnant for the third consecutive year with only property valuations changing how much a homeowner pays the tax man. Still, most in La Crosse won't see a drop-off in services, says mayor Matt Harter |

I am working on a project for Ravenswood High School. I am the defensive coordinator and I am writing a history of our football team. I am currently looking for information about some of our early coaches. I received some information from R.O. Samples daughter that he may have coached at Walton back in the 30's Would you know of anyone who may be able to help me find information? There are a few other coaches that we had that I have tied to the Spencer area. Thayer "Dusty" Rhodes also had some ties there. I have found quite a bit of information on some coaches but have stalled out on others.
I read the Football memories you have as part of your website. That was a great thing that he wrote for the site. In the book I am writing for our 100 year aniversary I am having a player do the same thing from each decade back to the 30's. Thank you for your time. I love your site.

2011 Marks the 100th Anniversary of Spencer High School!
Here is H. Laban White, the gentleman who pioneered the creation of the school:
(Click the image or here for his biography)
The school came about from the efforts of H. Laban White, a letter writing campaign, and a bond proposal. The letters were printed in the newspaper of the time and are recorded here. It is an interesting read.
Here's an excerpt, as published in April 28, 1911.
The Board of Education of Spencer Independent District have been considering for some time the proposition to establish in town a High School, with a full accredited course as prescribed by the State Superintendent of Schools and to built and properly equip a building for such purposes. Why should Spencer not have such a school? Other and smaller towns have. Clendenin is building a $30,000.00 high school building and Clay county has just voted bonds for such purpose. No fewer than 50 young people of Spencer are now away from home attending school taking the high school branches, at a cost to each of no less in any case than $300.00 per year and from that on up to $500.00 and $600.00. Why not keep this money at home and the young folks under home influences?

Our little home looked like Early American D.I. (to use Elder Holland's expression) years ago when the Bishop came to visit. The children were still young enough to hug toys and bounce on the couch. I was pretty sure I was getting a new church calling and that was the reason for his visit. Little wasted words were spent. A ward organist was needed. Could I play, he wondered? Answering yes, but hesitating, he followed up with "Okay, but do you know how to play the organ?" (No, not really.) "I think I could do it," I innocently replied. Maybe he saw hope in my eyes, or simply had to take me regardless. A plan formed in my mind. Grandma Hyde played organ every Sunday in her chapel. She could give me a speedy overview and I could practice and take it from there. With much kindness that is what she did for me. A gift was given. I intensely wanted to learn and there was a moment of opportunity.
And here I am shamelessly attempting to write something for AML. I am excited for this opportunity and adventure. All I bring is my work as a mother and Children's Librarian—the years of books I have brought home that we have read together. Finding a gem of a book–one that when read out loud engages all the now teens and young adults (even those college goers) in our home, is one of my particular pleasures. It's not that easy to do. More often time is at a premium for the simple basics of life. But there are a number of titles which have become part of our family and draw us together whenever we read them. That is for a different future blog.
A few days ago, December 23, to be exact, the YA Fiction was being weeded. A cart held duplicate copies headed for the book sale. These titles were all quality fiction, all received praised reviews, just being thinned to make space for newer titles coming. I was invited to browse and take some. A Christmas scheme or experiment took shape. (Is it wrong for a mother to scheme for the good of her children?) Feeling giddy, I carefully picked an armful of books, each with a specific child in mind. On Christmas morning, the first presents to be opened were the books, wrapped in gold paper. After explaining how the books came to be under the tree, the kids laughed at my idea and even more at some of the titles I matched up with certain children. The instructions were to read the first paragraph of the books on the spot. Then they were given the option to trade and/or share titles over Christmas break. I wanted to observe how this would all play out and maybe learn something about my children as a result.
To perhaps amuse you, here is the list of titles with bits about what has happened so far. The titles were not all those I would have typically chosen at Christmastime for a book to give. Only one of them I had read previously. Our YA librarian commented positively on the titles I chose, however.
- Skulduggery Pleasant: Scepter of the Ancients by Derek Landy — for my 25 year old who still usually succeeds at rereading the Harry Potter series every summer. She loves fantasy, and loves it even more if there are funny bits. This is my daughter who began the "Alcatraz vs the Evil Librarians" series just before leaving for college. She packed the next two Alcatraz titles off to grad school, renewed them online and them mailed them back before they were overdue. (I see eBooks in her future.) This title I had read and so had her 17 year old brother. Her brother assured her it was definitely a good story. What's not to love about a darkly witty skeleton detective?
- Once a Witch by Carolyn MacCullough — for the 20 year old who loves Sherlock Holmes (both the books and BBC,) Edgar Allan Poe, and Jane Austen. She is also a fan of "Dr. Who." The book proclaims to be "A fantastic urban fantasy with an enchanting romance at its heart." Her siblings nearly rolled on the floor when she read the title and first paragraph. She has a reputation as a bit of a tyrant at home. Our YA Librarian remembered having "loved that book."
- Maximum Ride by James Patterson – for the 17 year old who reads fantasy, science fiction, comic books, and graphic novels. He is hands down the most picky reader in the family. His favorite authors have been mostly Brandon Sanderson, Jonathan Stroud, and Brandon Mull. He showed an interest in the book, commenting that he'd seen it as a graphic novel, and "didn't know it was a book first."
- Cloaked in Red by Vivian Vande Velde — for the 15 year old who most recently devoured Cinder and Posiedon. She protested at having to receive "another book" with vaguely hidden rolled eyes and exasperated sighs. Later that day she nabbed "Once a Witch" and finished it a couple hours later. The past couple days she has read "Cloaked in Read," "Pete's a Pizza" (by William Steig,) another random YA romance published by Disney Hyperion, "Endymion Spring" by Matthew Skelton, and has repeatedly tried to make off with the YA title about the supposed son of Jack the Ripper who becomes a Pinkerton detective, which I'm currently reading: "Ripper" by Stefan Petrucha. I should just hand it over. She'll finish it in less than a day and be done with it. Thus far she has proclaimed "Once a Witch" as her favorite and the best of the books I brought them.
- Endymion Spring by Matthew Skelton — for the 12 year old reader of mostly fantasy. He has loved The Inheritance Cycle Series, the Fablehaven Series, and the Pendragon Series. I have to admit that Mr. Skelton's book has a pretty gorgeous cover and an intriguing plot summary. Collin was happy to have me read the first couple of chapters to him, until his sister found it and took it to her room.
- Thirteenth Child by Patricia C. Wrede — for everyone in the family. I snuck this one in because of the author's stellar reputation and our love of her "Enchanted Forest Chronicles." I couldn't resist the lure of more steamy dragons, schools of magic, and a twin brother and sister who are at the same time perilously unlucky and fantastically gifted, set in a wild landscape.
There is one week left of Christmas break. I look forward to more days of reading aloud (holiday treats nearby to sustain ourselves) and seeing where these books take us.
I imagine most of us either gave a book or received a book this Christmas. Please share titles and/or book giving stories that happened to you. I can't wait to see what is posted and I'll make a reading wish list.

Predator Boats |
Rated 9 time(s). | Email to a friend |
Aluminium boat builders come and go. Because many sheet-metal shops perceive that there is a ready market for alloy boats (they're right), they get into the business of boat building. Sometimes they are around for a year or two, sometimes longer. Usually, they build a few boats, realise there's more to it than they thought, then give it away. Most small scale alloy boat builders around today won't be building boats ten years from now, or so the experience of the last ten years would suggest.
There are exceptions. Some of the larger production builders have been around more than ten years and a few smaller builders have also done their time. Predator Boats is one of them.
Predator Boats grew out of Triangle Marine, a company then making a range of boating accessories. Company Director, Doug Dingle, has a long history in the marine industry at every level, particularly boat building. They built their first aluminium Predator boat in 1990, the charter boat Earl Grey, to a design with many (then) unique features. The boat has worked constantly ever since, is still owned by the same people, and has proved to be ideally suited to the task for which it was designed.
With Earl Grey, Predator incorporated flooding ballast tanks to add stability at rest. It was to be a feature in all subsequent Predator boats and has since been adopted by numerous other alloy builders. The hull was also painted — again, an innovation soon taken up by other alloy builders and now so common it no longer elicits any comment and the finish and attention to detail set new standards.
In the ten years since Earl Grey, Predator Boats have crafted around 40 boats between 5.8 and 9m, not counting 18 Predator jet boats built for river racing and sprints, and repaired and modified numerous other aluminium boats. Repairing broken boats has reinforced the company's understanding of the design and structural requirements of alloy powerboats.
Each Predator boat is unique; the company specialises in personalised, semi-custom boats based on well-proven hull designs built to exacting specifications. They're not production boats and the standard of finish is second to none.
Doug has a passion for detailed finish. It's evident at every stage of construction, from the drawings through to the finished paint job. All his boats are over-built and properly engineered says Doug. Sound engineering is the key, and he pays the same attention to areas that can't be seen as he does to the bits of the boat in full view — even the bilges are etched and painted to combat the silent killer of all alloy craft: corrosion. Only the best materials are used and Doug refuses to cut corners.
The same is true for the boat's fit-out. While buyers can fit out the boats themselves (or have someone else do it), Doug prefers to undertake this vital function himself. He adheres to the same strict standards as he does with his boats' construction and uses only the best he has confidence in. Of course, owners can source their own gear and Doug will fit it, but he always feels happier when he can choose equipment he knows is up to the task. Usually, both the buyer and the builder work together to personalise the boat and its equipment.
While Doug's boats are not specifically built for speed (except for some of the jet boats, which are designed for racing), they are all great load carriers and extremely comfortable in most sea conditions. Doug's latest Predator 750 design, a fishing/cruising layout, has a good fishing cockpit, a lock-up saloon-galley area amidships and v-berth sleeping forward. It has a 500-litre fuel tank and plenty of storage, making it ideal for extended cruising.
In recent years, Predator Boats have tended to specialise in larger maximum width trailer boats powered by inboard petrol or diesel jet, sternleg or outboard installations, depending on the owners' needs. Most have been built with serious sportfishing or charter work in mind. Doug has often been asked about his smaller boats, which have not been built for the last three years, and he is keen to revisit them. He is planning inboard and outboard versions of his popular and successful 6-metre design.
Interestingly, of the forty Predator Boats built so far (not counting jet boats), only five have been sold-on. Of these, two were sold so that the happy customer could buy another Predator boat. That kind of loyalty suggests a healthy level of customer satisfaction with the product — something Doug is justifiably proud of — and provides as good an endorsement as anyone could ask for.
Predator Boats are not the cheapest aluminium boat around. But they are one of the best in terms of engineering integrity, detail and finish. Each one is a labour of love for the builder and most become an object of love to their owners. If you are interested in something a little special in aluminium boats, check out Predator Boats.
A lifetime in boat building and design
Although Doug Dingle grew up around boats, he became really interested in their design while training as an aircraft engineer. Once he was qualified he moved to Sydney where he worked with a friend building a yacht. He so enjoyed the experience that he decided to build his own. At the same time he got involved in building round-bilged boats in steel and aluminium — knowledge he applied to his own boat which he later sailed back to New Zealand and still owns today.
Back home again Doug settled in Whangaroa where he set up a yard to build steel fishing boats. He also built a 53-foot yacht. He then built his own motor-sailer for commercial fishing at the Three Kings, Whangaroa and elsewhere. He worked the boat himself for a time before taking it and his family to Auckland.
While his boat fished the West Coast of the South Island, Doug built more steel yachts, worked in installing and fitting out large systems and specialised in large-scale marine engineering projects.
This work continued through the late eighties at which point Doug became involved with the Spirit of New Zealand project. Spirit is a 145-ft steel sail-training vessel. Doug oversaw the project from start to finish — he even built the shed!
Spirit was interesting in many respects — not least her immense size. She was also one of the first vessels in Auckland to have used computer lofting in her design.
After Spirit, Doug was involved in building the super-yacht Aquel, and several other steel and alloy yachts for Thackery Yachts. A stint building alloy hulls for Red Knight Inflatables convinced Doug to start his own business, Triangle Marine, and in 1990 the first Predator Boat was built. Since then he's built 40-odd Predators of various lengths and 18 jet boats for racing and sprinting.

Air Canada Centre, Toronto, ON
The Indiana Pacers just failed to run their winning streak to a season-best six games. The same thing happened the last time they faced the Toronto Raptors.
Indiana, though, has a chance to extend a different streak Friday night when it goes for its fourth consecutive road win over the Raptors.
Going for its first 6-0 run since a seven-game surge last April 9-19, Indiana (36-22) lost 99-91 to Pacific Division-leading Los Angeles Clippers on Thursday.
With center Roy Hibbert serving a one-game suspension for his actions in Tuesday's skirmish versus Golden State, the Pacers allowed 50 points in the paint -- nearly 15 more than their NBA-best season average of 35.3 -- and fell percentage points behind the New York Knicks for second in the Eastern Conference.
"Roy Hibbert makes a big difference in our team," coach Frank Vogel said. "Everybody says he's having a bad year, but he's having a good year. We have the No. 1 defense in the league and he's a big part of it."
Indiana will make its first visit to Toronto since a 90-88 season-opening victory on Oct. 31. Pacers forward David West led all scorers in that contest with 25 points, while Hibbert and Paul George each chipped in with 14.
The Raptors (23-35), though, have won the last two meetings. They are the only team with two victories visiting the Pacers and one of four teams in the East with two wins against them.
After ending their four-game skid in their series with a 74-72 victory on Nov. 13, the Raptors also snapped Indiana's 15-game home unbeaten streak with a 100-98 overtime win on Feb. 8.
Newcomer Rudy Gay scored 17 of his 23 points in the fourth quarter of that game, including a jumper with 1.7 seconds left, to kick-start Toronto's season high-tying five-game winning streak.
The Raptors, though, have dropped three of four since that surge. They are six games back of eighth-place Milwaukee after losing 103-92 at Cleveland on Wednesday.
"Winning fixes everything," said Gay, who is averaging 20.4 points and 6.8 rebounds in 12 games since being acquired from Memphis on Jan. 30. "This is still new to me. That's why I get so frustrated when things happen out there. I'm still trying to figure things out. It's definitely not easy losing. I'm not here to lose. I don't think anybody else is here to lose."
Gay is doing his part, as is DeMar DeRozan, who has 59 points in the last two games. The Raptors, though, will likely need stronger bench play on Friday when they face one of the deepest teams in the league.
"We can't play our starters 48 minutes," coach Dwane Casey said after Toronto's reserves were outscored 39-8 by the Cavs' bench. "I wish we could. The guys coming off the bench have to be ready to play."
Toronto's bench has outscored Indiana's reserves 93-57 in 2012-13.
Danny Granger could give the Pacers' second unit a boost after scoring 12 points in 19 minutes -- both season highs -- on Thursday. It was his third game after missing the first 55 with a knee injury.
The Raptors last beat Indiana three times in a season in 2007-08, when they won three of four.

Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month
Pros:Bike riding in long pants can be a drag when yur cuffs rub against the chain or even worse if they get caught in the chain. These little velcro fasters are great to gather up your cuffs so that this does not happen.
Cons:The little rubber unleash hook is not very resistent and if you are not careful, it won't last long. Nevertheless it is easy to open without it.
If you are not carefull the plush part of the velcro will get seriously dirty (depends on conditions).
I recommend this product in terms of quality and use. The shipping excellent.
Bottomline:excelent product, very happy with this. I used them every day!

Various Steeler News 11/25
Steelers Notebook: Hoke's plunge earns cold cash Friday, November 25, 2005 By Gerry Dulac, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Perhaps the Steelers will make it a Thanksgiving tradition. Or maybe it will become a ritual for one of the defensive linemen. But Chris Hoke didn't seem to mind. He is accustomed to water colder than the Monongahela River. And he has an extra $1,000 in his pocket for his stunt. On a dare from defensive ends Aaron Smith and Kimo von Oelhoffen, Hoke jumped into the Monongahela River yesterday after practice -- uniform and all -- delighting many of his teammates when he walked into the locker room dripping mud and weeds. "That's Christmas money for me," said Hoke, a backup nose tackle. When the Steelers finished their morning practice, Hoke walked down the bank of the river that runs alongside their South Side practice facility. After putting his foot in the water to test the temperature, he turned around and fell backward into the Monongahela, like the "Nestea Plunge." "It didn't feel too bad," Hoke said. "The water was warm. It was cold when I got out. I'm used to swimming in rivers in California in November and December that are colder than that." Smith and von Oelhoffen each put up $500, daring Hoke to jump into the river. "I was sitting in the meeting room and I looked outside and saw how cold it was and I figured I would see what Hokie's price was to go in there," Smith said. "I knew Hokie would do it." Steelers protect Nua The Steelers signed rookie defensive end Shaun Nua from their practice squad because the San Francisco 49ers wanted to sign him to their 53-man roster. Teams can sign a player from another team's practice squad, but only if they put him on the active roster. The Steelers released tight end Matt Kranchick to make room for Nua, a seventh-round draft choice. Essex returns to backup role Lol I love hearing stuff like this. Maybe they'll start doing this to new DL starters. or new DL players. I love the Steelers DL, I think they're one of the best in the business, and they're definately my favorite section o the Snteelers roster right ofw. You know the Steelers draft well when someone's going after your Rookie 7th round pick. I'm sure there are players out on other peoples PS that have 1-2 years experiance and to know people are gunning for our 7th round rookie makes me very excited about our Steelers future. There's also a little bit on there about Essex's first start, and how Charlie's progressing faster than expected. He could be the Number 2 QB against Cincy, which I would love to see. I hate having this chance that Maddox will play against in a Steelers Uniform. Nothing really earthshaking in the news department, I just thought I''d share it with you...

100 Cameras in One for iPhone/iPod touch and iPad
- A completed photo, ready to go to Instagram
My first effort with 100 Cameras. When I posted it to Instagram, a follower immediately responded with "Steve, that's beautiful." The app can make good pictures into evocative photos.
- Opening Credits on the iPhone app
- Sharing options
As you can see, there is a long list of sharing options. I chose to log into most of them right off the bat.
- The Main Menu
This easy-to-understand screen gives you a bunch of choices to explore.
- Previews of effects
Here you're seeing a photo taken with my iPhone 4 with just a handful of the 100 effects in the app applied to them.
- Original Image
Here's an original image of a magnolia flower that I took a few weeks ago.
- Browse effects
Now I can browse the different effects by scrolling down and swiping sideways.
- More effects
- Grouping effects by mood
This is a great way to find an effect that fits your mood.
- First effect applied
This effect is reminiscent of light filtering through a wooden bridge above you...
- Add another effect
100 Cameras lets you know that once you've retouched a photo with an effect, you can still layer on more effects.
- Fingertips
These "Fingertips" show up when you first start using the app, providing guidance on how to use the app.
- Second effect applied
- Sharing options
- Send to Instagram...
actually displays this list of compatible iPhone apps that I have installed. I can choose to send my photo to any of these apps.
- iPad Version
The iPad version of 100 Cameras is different in design, but similar in operation.
- The controls and "triple nipple"
Ratcliff refers to the three dots on the grabber at the bottom of the screen as the "triple nipple." You can hide the tools altogether, bring up a few, or display them all (as seen here).
- iPad overview
- Scrolling list of visual effects
You can either swipe your photo and see the different effects applied to it, or pop up this small scrolling list.
- Crash and Burn!
While your iPad may NOT crash when opening large files, the app does provide a warning.
- Sharing menu on the iPad app
- Open In...
Send to "Instapaper" (should be Instagram, and it's being fixed) takes you to this scrolling list of compatible apps.
- More apps
- A few artifacts
Note the yellow and pink squares in the bright light at lower right? Those shouldn't be there. Adjusting the "yin" got rid of those artifacts.

Windows/Linux Dual Boot
Both the Red Hat and SuSE installation guides have excellent chapters on how to divide up your hard drive for use by Linux. Personally, I favor the "Keep It Simple" principle, especially for beginners. I let Windows keep the first partition, create a second for the entire Linux install, a third for Linux swap space and the fourth for my /home directory (where data is kept). Having /home on a separate partition will make things much easier, if you ever have to reinstall Linux. The size of each partition will depend on your individual situation, but this should suffice for most folks. However, if your hard drive is larger than 8GB, there is something else to think about—LILO.
The usual and recommended method to boot into Linux is using LILO (the LInux LOader). LILO can install itself in your boot sector and allows you to choose which operating system you would like at boot time. Due to a technical limitation, LILO is unable to read data from the hard drive past the 1024th cylinder—the 8GB mark for modern LBA (Logical Block Addressing) hard drives.
Does this mean you can't use the rest of your drive? Not at all. What it does mean is that your boot partitions must all live below the 8GB mark, that is, below cylinder 1024. Thus, if you want Windows to use the first 9GB of your fancy new 18GB drive, you won't be able to use LILO to boot Linux. Because of this limitation, Red Hat's Disk Druid tool for partitioning the hard drive will not allow you to create your Linux boot partition past cylinder 1024. You can still create the partitions using fdisk, but Red Hat setup will not install LILO if you do.
It is possible to avoid the entire problem of the 8GB barrier by booting from a floppy disk. Although this may sound inefficient, it actually works quite well. The kernel loads into memory from the floppy disk and never accesses the floppy again, so loading the kernel is slower; but after that, the system runs the same as if it had booted from the hard drive. The Linux kernel has no difficulty accessing the end of large hard drives, so it can still reach all the files of your Linux installation.
The setup program for your distribution will almost certainly ask you to create a boot floppy during installation. Even if you don't plan to boot from floppy regularly, you should definitely make a boot disk. If for some reason LILO fails to install or becomes corrupted, you will have no other way to access the files on your Linux installation.
Loadlin is a program that runs under DOS (or Windows 95 in MSDOS mode). It can load the Linux kernel into memory from the DOS partition. Because it loads the Linux kernel from the hard drive, there is still a possibility the 8GB barrier could cause problems, but only if your Windows partition is larger than 8GB and is almost full. That's not likely at the time of this writing, but who knows—the next release of Windows might take up that much space by itself.
Frankly, I wouldn't recommend Loadlin to Linux novices because it can be difficult to configure correctly. If you simply must use it, an excellent Loadlin + Win95 Mini-HOWTO document available from the Linux Documentation Project should get you up and running.
Giving Linux a try does not mean you have to buy a whole new computer or even a new hard drive. With just a little extra effort, you can run both Linux and Windows without losing any data or any productivity while you learn Linux. I think you will find it is well worth the effort.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

(KMOV.com) – One person died after a semi-truck caught fire in St. Genevieve County late Thursday night.
Missouri Department of Transportation officials said the truck was traveling on the interstate near mile marker 157 in Bloomsdale when the fire started around 11:25 p.m.
Missouri Highway Patrol officials told News 4 one person was killed. Additional details surrounding the victim's death were not immediately available.
Both north and southbound lanes on the interstate were closed while HazMat crews worked to clean hazardous chemicals that spilled. The fire occurred on the Bloomsdale Bridge and MoDOT crews had to inspect it before the interstate could reopen.
Drivers traveling south were being detoured at Highway OO near mile marker 162. They were directed to get off at Highway 61, go through Bloomsdale, and get back on I-55 at Highway O.
Northbound drivers were detoured at Highway 0. They could get back on I-55 after taking Highway 0 to Highway 61, then Highway 00.
The cause of the fire was unknown.

Our 75 Best Tips for Losing Weight
Discover sensible slim-down ideas that really work
By Woman's Day Staff
Smart Diet Steps
11 | Have breakfast. People who do so tend to eat fewer calories throughout the day. April 2007
12 | Pump up your protein intake early in the day. Protein is digested at a slower rate than simple carbs, so you'll feel full for longer. October 1966
13 | Eat slowly and savor each bite. You'll be satisfied with less food. January 1958
14 | If you have trouble controlling how much you eat of a favorite food, such as ice cream, do not bring it into your home. Eat it only in restaurants. April 1974
15 | Make lunch at home and bring it to work. It will probably be more nutritious and have fewer calories—not to mention cost less. June 1961
16 | Get enough sleep. You're more likely to give in to cravings when you're tired. January 1994
17 | Only eat when you're seated at the table. You'll do less unplanned nibbling. April 1974
18 | Keep your portions in control by never eating straight from the box or bag. June 2003
19 | Save some calories for snacks between meals. June 1961
20 | Hate to waste food? Instead of eating your children's leftovers, save that uneaten half-sandwich for the bird feeder. April 1982
21 | Drink a big glass of water at the start of every meal to help you feel full. January 1994
22 | End every meal with a large, filling glass of water, too. June 2003
23 | Keep a food journal. It holds you accountable. April 1967
24 | Use small plates. Research shows that you'll eat less because you'll think you ate more. March 2009
25 | Don't have a big lunch and a big dinner on the same day. If you overeat at one meal, cut back at the next. July 1982
26 | Don't think about what you can't eat. Focus on what you can eat more of: fruits, vegetables, whole grains, fish, legumes and nuts. August 2006

Anyone old enough to remember The Culprits? If you don't then go hunt down their albums "FifteenThirteen" and "Nora." I promise that you will not be disappointed. If you love Office Negative, The Havoc, and similar bands, then you need to add this to your library of Christian punk. Brian reached out to me recently and told me that The Culprits might be getting back to together to do some shows, if you are lucky enough to be in the Mid-Atlantic states, maybe you can catch one of their reunion shows! Anyway, check out what Brian had to say about The Culprits, all the bands they shared the stage with, Cornerstone's past, and the scene in general.
Q: So The Culprits played their last show around 2004-2005, when did the band get its start?
A: We started working on the songs for the Culprits in early 2000, at that point we were in a 3 piece ska-punk band called Slushball Derkins that was winding down. I'll never forget the night we decided ska just wasnt working for us anymore, it was January 3rd, 2000. We were playing a show at Carpenter's Home Church in Lakeland Florida with saGoh 24/7(Anberlin) and Cool Hand Luke. SD had played Lakeland tons of times over the course of 3 years and always had a good response, but that night we opened the show and everyone looked at us like we were aliens or something. No noise in between songs just dead silence, crossed arms, and icy stares. Granted we were a little out of our element at that show but after our set we knew we had to change or we wouldn't be long for the scene. So the very next day we sat down and evaluated where we were going what we were doing and how we could do it better. We all still loved ska but figured if we can't go full fledged horns and everything we would focus more on the punk side. So we talked about favorite bands favorite songs and kind of came to a consensus on what we wanted to play. It turned out we all had good memories of albums like Let's Go, Out Come The Wolves, Maniacal Laughter, and Dookie. We saw that the Christian scene at least in Florida was lacking any kind of good punk rock with a positive message so we set out to change that. As I'm going back through old cds I'm finding out a lot happened in a short amount of time in 2000. The first set of songs that would later become the foundation for The Culprits first album were released on a 4-song demo by SD called Cry Freedom in April 2000 and by the end of that Summer/early Fall we had made the transition to The Culprits and were recording FifteenThirteen our first album.
Q: What is the significance of the name The Culprits?
A: I'd love to tell you there's some deep meaning behind it like because of our sins we are all culprits in the death of Jesus, but it's just a name I came up with late one night after seeing the word somewhere, checking to make sure no one else had it as an AOL user name, pitching it to the band and everyone thinking it was a good name.
Q: So we know that The Culprits have members that were in Since Remembered, and a more current project Wolves&Wolves&Wolves&Wolves, can you give us a timeline of how all these bands are related and the order of their existence. Also what other bands have members (or ex-members) been in?
A: The running thread between all these bands and many more is mostly me (Brian) but my brother Kyle has been in all the same bands whether voluntarily or reluctantly. It all started with a band called The Swifties (Kent, Brian, Kyle, Tylere, Joel) in 97-98 which after the lead singer quit became Slushball Derkins (Brian, Kyle, Tylere, Joel & later Danny) 98-2000 which after a couple member changes and a bad show became The Culprits (Brian, Kyle, Sean, Danny – later Brian, Kyle, Ben) 2000-04ish. The Culprits never had a proper last show partly because me and Kyle (bass and vocals) ended up moving to North Carolina Ben (drums) stayed in Florida so it just fizzled out. About a year after that The Culprits first drummer Danny contacted me about starting back up a high school band we had been in together called XNeverAgainX but this time we would call it Since Remembered (Danny, Brian, Mike, Kyle) 2006-07. We sent demos and lyrics back and forth via email and whatever and put together a solid demo which got us signed to Blood and Ink (where the Culprits released a cd). That fell apart in less than a year for reasons I won't go into which I'm kind of sad about because I thought we had some good days ahead of us. From 07-08 I tried to get a new band going 4 different ways, the same band but different lineups and it never gelled. Finally in 2009 I gave that up and worked on something brand new and that ended up becoming Wolves&Wolves….. which is still going strong and about to release our first cd. I'll never remember all the bands everyone before or after The Culprits has been in but a small list would go like – Fit For Rivals, The Making Of, The Essex, Black Hand, blkmsk, Catch Phrase, and a ton more
Q: So what is everyone in The Culprits up to these days?
A: From the original line-up – I'm living in Winston Salem working on Wolves, Kyle is also in Winston playing drums in Wolves and working full time at his t-shirt printing business Machine Gun Graphics, Sean is living in Florida and celebrating the birth of his first daughter, Danny is in Tennessee working as a tattoo artist, our last drummer Ben is living in California somewhere near the corner of Hollywood & Vine playing music and cutting hair.
Q: So The Culprits put out a few albums, I know of "Nora", but there is also an album called "FifteenThirteen" that you mentioned. How would people even get their hands on either of these recordings today? When I listen to "FifteenThirteen" it has a bit more punky feel to it than "Nora" which is a bit cleaner and more produced. Are these the only albums you guys put out or are there other recordings? (any plans on releasing Slushball Derkins? LOL)?
A: We had a small handful of releases, first a 5 song demo in 2000 limited to about 50 or so, only 2 full length albums 1513 was first, self released in late 2000, then by a label in 2001. Nora was released in 2003 by Blood & Ink Records who I would later work with on Since Remembered's album. We did a self released 7″ titled "The Sinking Spell" in 2004 that debuted at Cornerstone which ended up being one of our last shows. It's unfortunate the 7″ never got heard by many people because we were producing some amazing stuff at that point that could have had a pretty big impact. We were on a few compilations, one a central Florida sampler which we were the only punk band on, one was Boot To Head Records Sampler 2 which was huge for me because I ate up everything Caleb put out and wanted to be on BTH so bad, and we had an exclusive song on Tooth & Nail's I'm Your Biggest Fan Volume 2 which was another big deal because volume 1 was my high school soundtrack. We also did another 5 song demo "Ashes to Ashes Dust to Dust" that had a couple songs from each album and a rerecorded version the song we did for Tooth & Nail that was limited to 50 copies and we sold on our 2002 Fall tour. 1513 was pretty raw but in a good way, we were 4 kids writing music together and having fun it was good times, but a lot happened between the 2 albums, I got married, our guitarist quit (but would later rejoin as our drummer in 2002 only to quit again), our drummer was engaged and quit the band, and the whole thing almost ended. I had moved away from home with my wife and was pretty much on my own writing at that point so I was coming up with different sounding music that had us morphing from a Rancid style street punk band into a Nerve Agents/AFI horror hardcore punk band. A LOT of people would come up to us after Nora and ask why did we change our style, and I'd understand why they felt that way but we never stopped playing the songs from 1513 or acted any different onstage so I would just tell them were writing new stuff and it's gonna be different because we won't write the same songs over. We were a progressive minded band if we weren't moving forward stylistically I felt like I was just treading the same water over and over again. You can get Nora probably until the end of time at bloodandinkrecords.com, I still have tons of copies of 1513 and the 7″ that I can get to people who want it. Me and my brother keep talking about going back and re-recording some of the old stuff and putting it up for free download or whatever but I don't know if we should go all George Lucas on the old songs, and there's been an ongoing discussion between me my brother and our last drummer to get together and write some new material but who knows if it'll ever produce anything. As for the SD stuff I've been working on remixing remastering and in some cases restoring the entire catalogue but it'll only be given to members of the band and close friends who were around at the time.
The Culprits "Johnny Bombs Away"
Q: The Culprits have been around for a while, and I bet that you guys have shared the stage with a lot of bands that are considered "legends" of the Christian hardcore/punk scene (along with you guys), who were some the bands you guys shared the stage with over the years that were your favorites? Who might we never have thought you might have shared the stage with?
A: We played shows with just about anyone you can think of, Underoath, Anberlin, Showbread, Headnoise, Officer Negative, The Deal, One21, The Havoc, The Last Hope, OCD, FBS, Flatfoot 56, The Decoded, Seventh Star, Sleeping By The Riverside (Adam Warshowsky sang on 1513 and is still a good friend to this day), Gunwale Under, and any Facedown band that came through Florida we ended up playing with. We actually ended up hopping a small swing of dates with Officer Negative in Florida, we played a show with them in our hometown one night in 2001 and we bonded pretty quickly and ended up playing all the rest of their shows in Florida, they asked us the next year to tour with them from Cornerstone to California and it was the most fun I've ever had. They were by far my favorite because they were just fun to be around and awesome people. I got a lot of good marital advice from Chad that I'll never forget and will be eternally grateful for. We also played with a bunch of secular bands in Florida just because we ended up getting a good following in central Florida from non-Christians because we were never preachy, we got the opportunity to open for The Unseen, The Virus, Endless Struggle, and more.
Q: What was the purpose of The Culprits?
A: It was to show Christ's love, not preach it or just speak it but to SHOW it. We ended up getting a good reputation around central Florida for being the Christian band everyone could like. We tried to never judge anyone because of what they believed or didn't believe, and we tried not to preach from the stage. I dont feel I was ever called to be a preacher, I'm a musician, so I would go onstage to play music. That didn't go over too well with some of the established bands and people in the scene but I never felt led to turn a mosh pit into an altar call. Now I'm not saying that other bands should have done the same as us because it's not my place to say and I dont know what they were called to do but for me it was always about the one-on-one conversations. That's where I felt led to be, talking and showing Christ's love on a personal level. If I could talk to one kid after a show and make a positive mark on their life then I did my job. Most of the time when I would talk to people after the show I would end up just listening, not because I didn't have anything to say but because most of the kids I met never had anyone who would just let them speak. They were so beat down by people shoving things down their throats they were happy someone was just there paying attention to what they had to say and I would never cut them off even if I didnt agree with what they were saying, I'd let them know where I stood and why, but I did my best to never condemn someone because they wouldn't immediately sway to my point of view. I've had many conversations with people where neither I nor they changed their point of view on an issue but we both walked away respecting each other for being able to talk and disagree CIVILLY. I knew I would never be able to change everyone I spoke with's mind but if I showed them the love and respect we were commanded to show them, God could take that and make a difference.
Q: So, rumor is that The Culprits might be doing some reunion shows, is that true? Where might we see you guys playing?
A: A reunion has been in discussion for a couple years now but something always came up to prevent it from happening, never anything major we just never got the timing right. We'd love to do something around Halloween like a Fall tour, maybe a week or a couple weekends back to back. The fall was when we started getting things together in the beginning and our imagery fit perfectly with the season so I think it'd be the most fun. We always did a big Halloween show every year. I've sketched out some tour plans and there's always places we would love to get back to but it always ends up that Florida, North Carolina and Virginia were the places we were most attatched to. Tampa, Orlando, Melbourne/Cocoa Beach, Savannah Ga, Raleigh area NC, Richmond and Roanoke VA are our targets for a tour. If it only came down to being able to do one show it'd probably be Orlando or Tampa.
Q: Are you guys going to be putting out some new material?
A: Ive got a treasure trove of never before heard material from the old days and some newer songs that would fit where we were headed around the time of the 7″ so I wouldnt rule it out, it's just a matter of focusing our efforts to do it. With Wolves&Wolves…. getting ready for a tour later this year and everyone being so far apart it's more likely we would just get together for the shows and to play the old songs again.
Q: What do you guys think about Cornerstone calling it quits? (in case you didn't hear, this is the LAST Cornerstone Festival)
A: I think it's unfortunate, one of our biggest goals as a band was to be able to play C-stone and we achieved it pretty quickly. We played the Underground Stage, Steel Roots Stage, and a handful of generator stages in 2002 and had a great time. Sadly that was the last time we were asked by the fest to officially play. We ended up playing 03 and 04 thanks to Blood and Ink Records getting us spots on smaller stages. I know a lot of behind the scenes info about C-stone and it doesn't shock me this is the last year, I'm honestly a little surprised it didn't happen sooner but I had a lot of fun and made a lot of great memories and friends that I'll never forget over the 4 trips (3 Culprits, 1 Since Remembered) I made to that corn field. I hate to think that kids won't have that in the future, but time brings change. and I really hate I'll miss the Squad 5-0 reunion.
Q: What are some of the fondest memories as a band? What shows or interactions have had special meaning for the Culprits?
A: The entire Officer Negative/Culprits tour in 2002 was a blast start to finish. Chad, Casey, and the guys will always be some of my favorite people and musicians of all time. I dont think there was a moment on that tour I wasn't having fun or didn't have a smile on my face. One time in particular that sticks out, after Cornerstone that year was over we were meeting up with ON to start West at a hotel in Macomb which just happened to be where most of Tooth & Nail and Facedown Records were staying. Chad had organized a heading separate ways prayer with ON, The Deal, One-21 and another band I can't remember, but asked us to join. We had played with The Deal a couple times in Florida and I think One-21 was confused as to who we were but being able to share that moment with 3 bands we looked up to was awesome. One other thing that jumps to mind was that same year at Cornerstone we were setting up our merch booth the first day and realized we were right next to Poor Old Lu, a band I have always loved. We get our stuff straight and are sitting around talking and next thing I know Jesse sprinkle is walking to the table with a box of stuff and all I can do is sit and stare. I know it freaked him out, I had my mohawk cut off shirt bondage pants and combat boots and I'm just staring at him. Over the course of the day we both caught each other staring, me out of admiration, and him I'm sure out of concern. I never worked up the nerve to start a conversation so I feel like I missed an opportunity to let him know he influenced a street punk band.
Q: When might we see The Culprits officially get together and announce these mini tours you reference above?
A: Sooner rather than later I'm hoping, it's all depending on work schedules, tours already in place for our current bands and a few other factors. We've pretty much got the lineup set and the songs we wanna play picked out, it's just a matter of everything coming into perfect alignment.
Q: What message do you want to send the hardcore punk scene as a whole?
A: Don't limit yourself. Don't just listen to one style of music. It's ok to listen to things others don't approve of. Be open minded and you'll be surprised what you find.
Q: Feel free to give any shout-outs, share links to bands & ministries, etc. Thanks for the interview and look forward to hanging with you guys in Raleigh!
A: To be honest we've been out of the Christian scene so long we have very few contacts anymore. Off the top of my head Blood & Ink Records carries our old CDs and are always putting out amazing stuff, great guys great bands; theres a praise and worship band called Ascend The Hill, we go way back with Joel the singer solid dude; I play hockey and hang out with Dusty from The Almost so check them out; and of course wolves&wolves&wolves&wolves not a Christian band but that's what me and Kyle are doing now.

In concert: The Roots
By Chris Klimek
If NBC ever released a compilation of The Roots' performances as house band for "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon," the DVD commentary track might make your player explode. The veteran Philly hip-hop overachievers won't finish a tune without referencing pieces of nine others. Their hyperlinked performance style is reliably thrilling, though you do sometimes want to yell at song-surfing bandleader/drummer/Twitter addict Ahmir "?uestlove" Thompson, "Hey, I was digging that!"
Tuesday night, at the first of two 9:30 club dates, The Roots offered a sweaty, channel-flipping blitz, packing about eight hours of mercilessly funky rap, rock, go-go, jazz, and soul into 140 breathless minutes. Though they've continued to tour since they got their house band gig with Fallon, their return to the 9:30 still had a celebratory, school's-out vibe.
(Guest spots, Guns 'N Roses and more pictures, after the jump.)
An early performance of "How I Got Over," the brassy title cut from their upcoming album, rocked the house so hard that MC Tariq "Black Thought" Trotter shouted "Thank you, goodnight!" when it was done. But there were two hours and several guest appearances to go — chiefly Wale, who took video of the crowd with a Flip camera while trading verses with Trotter on "Rising Up" and his own "Pretty Girls."
The Roots' discography, though admirable, has rarely captured their onstage range and urgency. The show leaned almost as heavily on those schizo references as on the Roots own material. Guitarist/singer "Captain" Kirk Douglas's made a strong play to steal the gig with a suite of "Sweet Child O' Mine," "Mannish Boy," "Who Do You Love," and "Immigrant Song," among others.
The Roots already provide the most amusing bits on "Late Night," but there's at least one traditional wee-hours-chat-show game you can bet they won't be playing: Stump the band. This band, it don't stump.
The Roots perform at the 9:30 club again tonight. The show is sold out.
