What made you think that anyone of the Indian commentators is thinking on those lines. Nobody has mentioned that as far as I can interpret the comments.
"FINALLY, Delhi dazzles", gushed the Times of India on October 4th, a day after the opening ceremony of the Commonwealth games, to which the Indian capital is playing host until October 14th. Not everyone shared the enchantment, including many members of the crowd in the vast Jawaharlal Nehru stadium, who jeered and booed Suresh Kalmadi, the head of India's organising committee, as he made his welcome speech. Australian officials later complained that their athletes had been "treated like cattle" as they were forced to endure an hour-long wait in a hot tunnel after gathering to march in the ceremony.
After a disastrous run-up to the games it is unsurprising that the ceremony, a spectacular, mostly well organised display of India's performing arts, should be hailed as a turnaround. Only days before, Delhi seemed to be hurtling towards humiliating disaster. Structures—including a vast footbridge attached to the biggest venue—were collapsing, while the rooms built to accommodate 7,000 athletes and their families were found to be filthily inhabitable. Many of the problems were blamed on widespread corruption. By the time the games kicked off, the city was in much better shape, though a new litany of woes soon appeared. Bird droppings and feathers were found in the main lap pool, while the scales used to weigh boxers seemed to be adding a couple of kilos, apparently ruling most out of the competition.
Most worrying, the 60,000-strong crowd that gathered for the opening ceremony seemed to melt back into the city, never to return. Many events in the first few days are rumoured to have boasted more participants than observers. Perhaps the potential spectators' enthusiasm was dampened by the many star athletes who pulled themselves out of competition, citing security concerns. With 100,000 police and paramilitary personnel deployed in the city centre, and lengthy security checks at each event, those fears are unlikely to be realised. But however smoothly the games unfold in the coming days, they have already cost India dear, squeezing not only the state agencies, which have seen their budgets overrun by many billions of dollars, but also an estimated 100,000 slum dwellers, who lost their homes to the bulldozers.

I am very dissaoppointed with these games. 17 Billion spent on 12 days of merry making
This money should have rather been spent on Defence and Allied industry. India would have had more bombs, Stealthier Jets, Faster Ship and an army of trained manpower in a technology intensive industry
Next time
The comments from Economist are on expected lines. No reason to respond.
But I do not understand the complaint on the expense. Do all the countries that host such events eradicate poverty before doing so? Did UK make every one of its citizens rich before bidding for the 2014 Olympics? What about the money spent on 2014 Olympics when UK government is cutting down on essentials like medical care and policing?
If India has spent USD 6 billion it is money belonging to its citizens and not to any external agencies. If a call has to be taken on this I am sure Indian electorate will do so in the next elections.
Thanks for your post. Many reports in the international and, sadly, in the Indian media itself, fail to distinguish between the responsibilities of the Indian Organising Committee and of the C.W.Games Federation.
I hold the Indian media culpable in the way,
a) they showed scant or little interest in the preparatory work done towards the Games but arriving late, they rushed superficial and panicky reports on how dreadful everything was - in banner headlines, difficult for the international media to ignore,
b) they failed to put under scrutiny the Congress Party officials like Mr.Kalmadi and Ms. Sheila Deekshath (the correct way to pronounce her Sanskrit origin surname) for the monies they were spending and the manner and processes in which those monies were being spent,
c) they failed to inform the Indian Public and the international media on the respective roles of the Organising Committee, Indian government and the CGF (with many officials from the U.K., Australia, Canada and NZ, along with many others from different C.W. countries in Africa and SE Asia, Pacific)
These failures of the Indian Media had soured the atmosphere of these Games, when there was NO JUSTIFICATION in terms of substance for such a high level of BAD PUBLICITY launched by the Indian media, which was then dutifully picked up by the international media.
Even some athletes, like the Australian wrestler, Fikri (?) echo the demoralisation wrought upon the Games by the Indian media.
For example, rather late in the day, the Indian media published the info., that Mr.Hooper, the CGF official was being compensated for any tax liability he incurred over his huge salary paid by India and further that India was housing him in an expensive accommodation hired at a huge monthly rent.
Zambino wrote: "Australians NOT complaining - now that would be news!"
Australians complained that they were "treated like cattle's" in the opening ceremony. When you treat "moneys" like a "cattles", they are bound to complain....;)
The Australian wrestler has already started showing there "money tricks" by showing indecent gesture to the referee after loosing to Indian Wrestler. He was kicked out of the CWG athletes village and stripped off his silver medal. He is one of the gold medal holders from the Olympics. When will these monkeys learn to behave.
Anyways India seems to be doing quite well and is in the second position with around 11 golds far ahead of so called sporting nations like England and New Zealand. Go India Go.
I hope that India does not reward mediocraty. Sheila Dixit should be removed from her Porfolio, and the games organisers should never look up , and bnever get a government job again.
There is no excuse for them messing up so badly.
Is it a holiday for the professional Chinese commentators here? Usually they don't let any opportunity to get at the Indians on these pages. Me for one, I enjoy the back and forth.
All the Mud has set in the bottom. Now only Gold, Silver and Bronze is floating with some spectacular performance by young and experienced athletes.
India showed its strength by winning 14 Gold medal and only Australia has won more medal than India.
Hope Indians can carry the same winning spirit to the London Olympics.
All the best!!!!
I meant "monkeys" not "moneys" in my previous post.
The economist did't bother to write an article about China's preparing work for the Asian Games upcoming next month? surely the Asian Games are the most important sports event in Asian, and also it could be another China/India comparison that could attract tons of comments.... hehhehe
Despite all the tardy display of planning and execution of a government managed event, the Indian economy is still scorching at 8.5 % percent. This clearly shows that when it comes to government machinery we are pathetic but at an individual level we can beat the best in the world. Just imagine if the same show was being handled at the same cost by the Ambanis or the Birlas.
Indians have much better thing to do than watch the games. The sports is like yet another profession in India. If the 60K people who came to watch the Inauguration were to come and watch all the matches, what a colossal waste of productive time. The only good thing about CWG is that it is giving international exposure to much larger Indian contingent. The players who kept out the show may ensure Indians may get more medal and may even qualify for finals in some events like swimming where Indians are traditionally weak. This will further boost these sports in India. Other notable contribution of CWG to India is the metro and the superior infrastructure Delhi can boast compared to many other cities in India.
i have a deferent idea on this issue due to this devastation is in india. almost every indians are exhilarsting the medals what they got after sickened other contesters whom were let to have dirty rubishy food who visited from other countries. it is revolting and bladdy redicules. of course there is not to be a surprise of number of medals to india due to they are not sick to contest because they are familiar with unhygenic meals. india should should realise these kind of eventsare not be occasions to experience. because they must know it is not a indian stupid movie wich as usual come under the comes under the romantic catogery. as it was comentrated... this is a dick...shit!
Good comments in your post.
I had seen homeless people in many 'advanced countries', many poor people, 'winos', people rummaging through 'trash cans' at night and so on. Sure, the neatly laid out roads, side-walks and bright lights in those countries make poverty less visible as compared to India. India's population is greater and therefore, the number of people below 'poverty line' are also greater.
Efforts are on to help. But as you say, it is unrealistic for these commentators to suggest, "India should stop everything, sports, military preparedness and space research and must devote all monies to helping the poor."
The expense of the present CWG consists in some capital expenditure for building brand new facilities, which will be available for use for many decades, hopefully, for Indian and visiting sports persons.
The last para of my previous post forms part of (a) (on the Indian media's failures).

I am trying to develop an application that would interface with a Smart Card Reader and read information from the smart card.
Let me give you the development environment and the hardware used.
OS: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6
IDE: Eclipse Juno CDT
Language: C/C++
Smart Card Reader: Omnikey 5321 (https://www.hidglobal.com/products/readers/omnikey/5321)
I have installed the driver and can find the following directories / files:
Contents of info.plist clearly show the "OMNIKEY CardMan 5x21" string under "ifdFriendlyName" key.
I want to use the PC/SC standard. Hence I have downloaded and installed the PCSC-lite and I have the checked that the daemon (pcscd) is running and the service status is ok.
Now comes the interesting part...
In my code, I used the following APIs in sequence.
SCARDCONTEXT oSCardContext;
SCardEstablishContext(SCARD_SCOPE_SYSTEM, NULL, NULL, & SCardContext);
SCardEstablishContext() returns SCARD_S_SUCCESS. Great!
SCARDCONTEXT oSCardContext;
DWORD dwReaders = SCARD_AUTOALLOCATE;
LPSTR mszReaders;
SCardListReaders(oSCardContext, NULL, (LPSTR) & mszReaders, & dwReaders);
SCardListReaders() returns SCARD_E_NO_READERS_AVAILABLE. Not good.
At this point I go and check that the reader is properly connected. Yes it is. I verify if I can see any reader entries in the /etc/reader.conf but I find no readers listed in here. I then go to /etc/reader.conf.d but find no files in here as well. So the smart card context is empty, I presume and hence no readers are listed.
So the issue right now is that pcsc-lite cannot detect(?) my reader attached and for which driver has been installed?
Just to check I wrote a simple program using the udev library to read all the "usb" subsystem entries and am able to find the following info from udev about the card reader connected:
Device Node Path:(null)
Vendor ID:076b
Product ID:5321
Product:Smart Card Reader USB
So am sure the device is detectable. But why is it that PC/SC Resource Manager cannot create this context?
So, How do I resolve this?
I am new to Linux, and have been trying to solve this issue myself without asking for help. But then I see that when there is time constraint it is indeed wise to better seek help from experts and people who have worked and / or encountered such an issue.
I have been googling too much but have not seen any that have my issue. So I presume I am missing something really basic perhaps.
If there is something I need to provide, please let me know. I will do so ASAP.
I appreciate your time to read.
I have updates...
I did the following:
1. I got a new card reader (SCM Microsystems) and still it was not detected.
2. The pcscd daemon was started at boot time by default. I stopped the service after I logged in, and then run in foreground mode using the command "pcscd -a -f -d" and the SCM reader was detected successfully.
3. I tried to plugin the reader in my question above, the OMNIKIEY 5321, and it was not detected.
Apprently, I arrived at the following conclusion:
1. For some reason until pcscd was stopped and run in foreground mode manually after I logged in, the readers were not detected.
2. The OMNIKEY reader / driver has a problem.

I've just finished reading... Blue Eyed Boy
Related Links
Relevant offers
I've just finished reading…
"Once there was a widow with three sons, and their names were Black, Brown and Blue. Black was the eldest; moody and aggressive. Brown was the middle child, timid and dull. But Blue was his mother's favourite. And he was a murderer."
Those of you who know popular authors will on hearing the name Joanne Harris probably think Chocolat. A wonderfully romantic tale about chocolate, love, and a little bit of magic set in the picturesque french town of Lansquenet. And who could forget the movie - you know, that one where you've never seen Johnny Depp look so sexy.
When I love an author and come across book sales or bargain bins, I'll snap up their books not caring what they're about. This is how I found Blue Eyed Boy and let me tell you, it was a surprise.
Blue, known online as Blueeyedboy, plays out his murder fantasies on an online forum and his obsession with Albertine, with whom he shares a dark past, consumes his entire life - just as this book will consume yours.
I expected a slightly twisted, odd and surprising read from Harris, having read a couple of her books including Chocolat, The Lollipop Shoes, and Blackberry Wine, but this one really threw me. A couple of times when I picked up the book, I even wondered to myself: "Should I even be reading this? Should I really be reading about some twisted, lonely, disturbed middle-aged man's murder fantasies? Should anyone?"
It's like when we pick up a newspaper or open a news website – we know we shouldn't get excited when someone gets murdered, but as soon as we see the words "murder" or "homicide" in a headline, it's the first story we read. If there's anything I learned as a journalist, it's that bad news sells.
So though it was a major change from what I usually read, and despite the "wow that sounds really sadistic" response from my partner when I read him the synopsis, I continued reading and somehow ended up liking the sadistic man in question, aka blueeyedboy - murder fantasies, cowardice and all. That was, until the end - an ending that, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't guess, and one that I won't ruin for you except to say this - it's good.
I met Joanne Harris recently when she came to Wellington promoting her new book, Peaches for Monsieur Le Cure, and, at the event, someone asked the question: "I have read the ending of Blue Eyed Boy over and over and I can't figure out what actually happens in the end - how is it supposed to end?"
I guess Harris has a pretty open-minded view of endings - I mean, she intended to finish Vianne's story at Chocolat, but she's written two more books about her because both she and Vianne had "unfinished business" with Lansquenet. And she may or may not write another one.
To the person who asked about the ending of Blue Eyed Boy, she simply said that the reader has to make up their own mind in the end.
So, if you want to challenge your morals and question your faith in introverts, and if you don't mind tearing your hair out at at the end, I suggest you pick up this book, but pick it up with an open mind as you should any Joanne Harris book, because you never know what damning twist she's got waiting for you around the corner.

I had this faucet/spigot for my old 10g rubbermaid cooler and now I want to pull it out and use it in a 100qt for my new mashtun. I went to install it into the new cooler and the section in the picture isn't long enough. There is like maybe 1/10 of an inch sticking through only on the other side so no room for the screw on section at the back inside the cooler. The number on the part says ss304 but googling that comes up with millions of different parts of that size of tubing. Anyways, just thought I would ask what it might be called so I can narrow the google search or if anyone knows where I might be able to find it online. Thanks so much!
Ss304 simply means stainless steel, 304 is one variety. What you're looking for is called a coupling. Take the part to a hardware store and find one that matches the size but is longer, or ask someone there to find you one.
Odds are quite poor of finding stainless fittings in a hardware store. You are going to have to look online for that nipple.
SS304 is the grade of stainless. From your photo you just need a piece of ss pipe threaded on both sides.
Dammit, nipple! Thanks Meister.
Nipple? that is the end part right? I have that if that's what the nipple is. I think it is the coupling that I need. Yah I wanted a SS one too. You can never find SS anything at HD or any of the other stores I've tried usually!
What you need is a nipple. I think you have a 1/2". The side of the valve should say the size. Take it off. Measure the total length and order one a bit longer.
The nipple is male threads (outside)while a coupler is female threads (inside). most online brew shop suppliers will carry them along with bargain fittings, weldless fittings, bobbym on here and many other places. The piece in the pic with the teflon tape is a nipple.

If the engine is excessively noisy on startup (after the engine has been off for several hours) and the noise lasts more than four or five seconds, turn off the engine and check for correct engine oil level. If the oil level is correct, the noise may be caused by the timing chain tensioner. Kia released an updated timing chain tensioner to solve this problem.
Reprogramming the transmission control module with the latest Kia transmission software may fix abnormalities in the automatic transmission and erroneous transmission-related Check Engine Light illumination. Software updates are commonly most effective on newer vehicles. Higher mileage vehicles may exhibit a similar symptom caused by a component failure. However, whenever major transmission repairs are performed the transmission software should be checked and updated as necessary.

You know, you do get what you paid for. BUT and this is a BIG but...DO YOUR RESEARCH BEFORE SPENDING 25K on a brand new car! We have a 2006 Sedona and I absolutely LOVE my van! It's a wonderful family car. Very safe, drives beautifully, and when things have gone wrong with it (which yes, there have been some electrical hiccups) THE WARRANTY COVERS IT...EVEN IN KOREA!!! I don't know why peo...
You get what you pay for. Looks great new, lots of features for the price. But it deteriorates quickly. Cheaply made, electrical and a/c issues out the wahzoo, and everything everyone else says. Owned the car only 45 months but 3K miles over warranty on basic and you are screwed - even on problems they are well aware of. Ford has more recalls, but that is becausse they actually recall when...

Kiehl's At-A-Glance
Strengths: Kiehl's staff is generous when it comes to providing samples and product information; some good cleansers; a couple worthwhile serums.
Weaknesses: Expensive for what you get; the Blue Herbal and Facial Fuel products are terrible; no products to successfully address skin discolorations; the toners are disappointing; the self-tanner should be avoided; jar packaging weakens several of the formulas.
This line has been around for quite some time, and has its origins in a family-owned pharmacy based in New York City. Perhaps its neighborly beginnings with a big-city heritage are what propelled Kiehl's to its long-standing status as a popular product line. Considering that Kiehl's doesn't advertise (at least not in the traditional sense, though their products get frequent press), their brand identity and status in the minds of consumers are impressive.
What gets lost in all the fashion magazine hype and company claims of "excellence" and "quality ingredients" is that almost all of the Kiehl's products hardly warrant excitement or even mild enthusiasm. Most of them are surprisingly ordinary, with a dusting of natural ingredients almost always at the very end of the ingredient list, well after the preservatives. That amounts to little more than a token attempt to make the products appear more natural to those who want to believe a plant or vitamin must somehow be better for the skin than something that sounds more chemical. Nevertheless, that token amount is enough to allow Kiehl's to brag about how its products nourish the skin or are more environmentally friendly, when they're not.
Aside from the allure of the natural, this line consists of totally ordinary and often completely unnatural ingredients. More disheartening for skin is that many of the ingredients are of questionable benefit for those with sensitive, oily, or blemish-prone skin. In some instances product ingredients are irritating for any skin type, while half of the sunscreen products are a serious problem for reliable sun protection. If you can't resist the allure of Kiehl's, just know that the product assembly will work best for those with dry to very dry skin and that, for the money, most of the formulas aren't knock-your-socks-off thrilling.
Note: Kiehl's is categorized as a brand that tests on animals because its products are sold in China. Although Kiehl's does not conduct animal testing for its products sold elsewhere, the Chinese government requires imported cosmetics be tested on animals, so foreign companies retailing there must comply. This requirement is why some brands state that they don't test on animals "unless required by law." Animal rights organizations consider cosmetic companies retailed in China to be brands that test on animals, and so does the Paula's Choice Research Team.

Fallujah outside Iraq government control: Security official
Published on Jan 4, 2014 5:02 PM
BAGHDAD (AFP) - The Iraqi government has lost control of the city of Fallujah, which is now held by Al-Qaeda-linked militants, a senior security official in Anbar province said on Saturday.
"Fallujah is under the control of ISIL," the official said, referring to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.
Parts of Ramadi and Fallujah, west of Baghdad, have been held by militants for days, harkening back to the years after the 2003 US-led invasion when both cities were insurgent strongholds.
Fighting erupted in the Ramadi area on Monday, when security forces removed the main anti-government protest camp set up after demonstrations broke out in late 2012 against what Sunni Arabs say is the marginalisation and targeting of their community.

But hey, as we learned on Monday, at least Hernandez doesn't appear to be the type who's going to be stingy or selfish with his new found riches. In fact, if the special gift he purchased and delivered to former Mariners teammate and opening night opponent John Jaso is any indication, he's going to be quite the opposite.
MLB.com's Jane Lee tells us more:
Before the former teammates squared off in Oakland on Opening Day, Hernandez sent over a gift for Jaso as a thank-you gesture for last year's perfect game: a Rolex wristwatch that Jaso showed off proudly.
"Getting to be a part of it is way bigger than this, but this is definitely a really nice gesture," Jaso said. "He really didn't have to. I was really just happy with being behind the plate. He came through."
Hernandez inscribed "Perfect Game" on the watch, along with the date -- "8/15/12" -- it was achieved against the Rays.
A wonderful gesture from a young man who has proven himself to be just as humble as he talented. Aside from pitching in a World Series, he won't have a bigger thrill or greater achievement in his professional career than what happened that day last August. To acknowledge Jaso's role behind the plate and reward him in this manner is a classy move.
And judging from that grin on Jaso's face and his comments, he obviously appreciated what King Felix did for him. He just didn't appreciate it very long. When the two faced off as opponents later in the evening, Jaso delivered one of Oakland's three hits — a double. As you would expect, though, Hernandez was the one who got the last word by tossing 7 2/3 scoreless innings and earning his first victory of the season in Seattle's 2-0 win.

Wedding: 5/17/2014
We loved the setting at mixons a beautiful setting an oasis in bradenton.
Very inexpesive and great staff all very helpful and a special thanks to Sherrie
Thank you for a beautuful day
Wedding: 3/8/2014
Mixons was absolutely fabulous! Sheri the wedding planner for mixons, keeps everything in a timely manor and understand people on a budget. There were several financial due dates all in a gapped time frame that made it easy to pay for everything and not feel overwhelmed laying a large amount of money at once. Sheri helped make our wedding day smooth and beautiful. The Gardens there are hidden and BEAUTIFUL! they maintain the garden wonderfully and I would recommend them to everyone!
Wedding: 7/1/2011
This is a wonderful venue. Beautiful landscape and some wonderful places to take pictures. Kathy is amazing and will help you from start to finish.
Wedding: 6/28/2014
I was very pleased with every aspect of the service at Mixon's. Professional and friendly. The best part was how efficient they were and how attentive to every need. I would recommend Mixon's for weddings or any other event! A big thank you to the whole staff!
Wedding: 3/15/2013
This was a beautiful venue and very affordable. I had very little decorations to do because the landscaping is so beautiful and loved the "Real Florida" it represented. Kathy Decker, the coordinator, is amazing! She is half the charm of the venue and amazing to work with, she knew every detail of our wedding and was so sweet. Unfortunately she had a family emergency the day of our wedding and could not attend. We didnt like the stand-in coordinator, but we understand that things happen out of everyone's control. I'm sure if Kathy had been there everything would have been perfect. I loved my wedding venue and would do it again in a heart beat.
Wedding: 6/9/2012
My husband and I had a short 6 month engagement and we knew we wanted a garden wedding in Florida. We looked at 10 venues over our Christmas break and honestly, by the time I got to the last one, I had started to become disheartened. We were planning an outdoor wedding for 260 people and that in itself was a hard space to fill since most venues only hold about 100 or less in that type of setting. When we walked into the butterfly garden at Mixon's, I knew this was the place. The gardens are just gorgeous! We had a wonderful gazebo where we held the actual ceremony by the water and the reception pavillion had plenty of room for dancing and the buffet and the feasting style tables I had wanted. It was magical with the lighting and the crystals and the flowers and butterflies everywhere. I couldn't have imagined it better! Not to mention, the pricing was very reasonable and the staff was so friendly and willing to help you in any way they could. Plus, it's not an over done venue and you feel like it's your own little getaway. It was simply the perfect garden spot for a wedding.
Wedding: 5/26/2012
Mixon's is a beautiful place to have a wedding. Kathy was wonderful to work with and kept everyone on schedule. I highly recommend them!
Wedding: 2/25/2012
Having Mixon's in the Grove as our wedding venue was the best decision we made. The coordinator, Kathy is awesome. She is friendly, professional and assists you all the way through. The grove is beautiful with trees, a waterfall and flowers. Those are just the naturally occurring accessories. If you want a beautiful outdoor event with a variety of options Mixon's is for you!
Wedding: 10/22/2011
Worth the price. Flexible and creative service. Stunning night time views complete with twinkle lights! Lots of space to mingle. Great alternative plans in the event of rain. We got married in october and it couldn't have been more gorgeous
Wedding: 9/10/2011
I have nothing negative to say about this venue! It was absolutely perfect for my new wife(hee hee) and I. Not only was it one of the cheapest all inclusive (ceremony/reception/tables/chairs/covered pavilion/kitchen for caterer/multiple locations for unique pictures/etc.) It was also the best looking! Beautiful flowers everywhere! Kathy was in touch throughout! The price point was well under what the location is worth! Koi pond that guests can feed fish. We had small koi in our centerpieces that tied in perfectly with this place! We also did a butterfly release as we walked away from the ceremony and it was beautiful! plenty of room for catering, DJ, and other vendors! The best part was that we only needed flowers for bouquet's, flower girls(dressed up center pieces with leftover pedals), corsages, and boutonnieres, saving us tons on flowers! I would recommend this place for anyone and everyone who can get in! 5 stars! and many years of memories!
Wedding: 4/17/2011
I couldn't say enough good things about Mixons! This was our ceremony and reception sight. Kathy Decker was the coordinator and she was AMAZING! She served as some what of a wedding planner to me, helping me with every detail from the decor to the food and more. Mixons is a beautiful location and so affordable! They have extremly comfordable and spacious bride and grooms dressing rooms as well as bathrooms. And don't get me started on all of the wonderful places for photos! I don't have one bad thing to say about Mixons. I am one happy bride!
Wedding: 3/19/2011
Not only was Mixon's in the Grove our dream Reception location, but on top of it everyone we met with was so kind and helpful! We had looked at many other venues, and all were too expensive with very little to offer. But immediately when you walk into the pavilion and the gardens your breath is taken away! It is completely beautiful and rustic (exactly what we wanted for our reception). Kathy Decker was so helpful and easy to work with. She helped work out several details that every bride worries about (especially when you don't have a wedding planner). I would suggest this venue to everyone I meet! Beautiful groves, beautiful gardens, beautiful place! And it's fun to go to for family events!

So I tried looking around the FAQ sticky, found only one post that related to my question and didnt exactly provide much incentive to what im looking to do. I am a linux enthusiast and I've had my droid for a little over a month now and im looking to root it however I have a few questions before I go about doing. What I really want to know is what the advantages are to gaining root access to my phone. I realize being a linux user that being root opposed to a standard end user makes all the difference in the world, but what does this means for my phone? Is the hack really worth voiding the warrenty? If it is worth it, everything comes with a price, so what are the draw backs? last question ( and a link will do fine if you've got one ) how does one go about resyncing your phone with verizon. is there a special manner of doing it? do i have to call it in? I did not see this step in the 2.1 tutorial ( maybe I over looked it ) oh and hi im new
For me, knowing I can do basically anything on my phone is worth voiding the warrenty. It is a plus that it's really easy to unroot, so if I ever needed to bring it back to Verizon they'd exchange it easily. I don't really see any drawbacks of rooting. As for "resyncing" with Verizon, I'm going to assume you mean getting your phone to work on Verizon after updating to 2.1. My phone always works no matter what ROM I install. I'm not sure if other people need to dial the number to program or not, but I've heard people talking about it.
Thanks that helps.. any one else got any feed back before I do this thing? I think im just curious as to how many people had to re-register the their phones with verizon after doing it, if any one that is.
The only time I had to re-register was on a hard rest. And that only took 2 mins with *228 But never after loading a ROM.
i think a hard reset would be when you load into recovery and choose wipe everything. *228 is how you program your phone. you call it and in 2 minutes your phone is ready to go. i didnt think root would be that great, but everyday i find more and more reasons im glad i did it.
As to 'voiding the warranty' remember that would only apply if you managed to completely brick your phone (which if it's like WM phones is EXTREMELY hard to do). Otherwise you can simply return it 'to stock' and they will never know. Even if you manage to brick your phone it's very unlikely (though not impossible) that they will know that you did it by modifying the phone. But of course it's your phone so it's your call.
There are also so many home screen mods available they would have to be an expert to tell if its rooted from my experience. the people at VZW just are not that intelligent around here. I have yet to root also since I too am trying to see the benefits. Although I am not a linux user or a linux pro user by far i would like to learn just not sure if it would be worth it to root
They would have to connect it to a computer which, if your phone is bricked still won't tell them much:icon_ devil:. I would imagine it wouldn't be until they sent the phone in to be refurbed that they would discovery anything (IF then). Personally I've held off because I don't really care to re-clock the CPU and there's no themes I've seen that I really want (and I don't have the time to make my own now). I'm also a bit burnt out with flashing and playing/cooking with ROMs after the last two years on WM phones.
yeah i feel your pain. I flashed the hell out of my omnia and guess what.... Im downloading a rom to flash to it now just cause
lol, I lucked out with having to switch networks. So I sold all my WM devices (on the ++ side they MORE than paid for my Droid and the first months service:icon_ banana.
i suppose if worst comes to worst i do manage to brick it (never bricked a psp yet, im usually pretty good about this stuff), I could just smash the F**ker and send it in.. I got the extended warrenty via GoWireless, $50 gets me a new one apparently.

Queens detectives were dispatched to dust for fingerprints yesterday around the altar of St. Irene Chrysovalantou Greek Orthodox Cathedral in Astoria, where church officials said they were once again the victims of an attempt to steal their most precious treasure: the icon of St. Irene that, the faithful maintain, wept on the eve of the Persian Gulf war.
This time, however, the icon was left safe in its case to the left of the altar, and the burglar was apparently frightened off by an alarm system the church installed after its last brush with crime in 1991.
In that case, church officials said, a group of armed bandits took the icon, only to return it five days later in the mail, intact but without frame heavy with gold and jewels.
It was a case that ultimately widened a rift between rival factions of the Greek Orthodox Church. There were accusations that the theft was a hoax, and a lawsuit filed as a result of those accusations was only recently resolved.
Yesterday's scenario was all too familiar to worshipers. ''You mean they tried to steal it again?'' asked Joseph Perez, a cafeteria worker who said he often prayed before the icon. ''It's terrible.''
Bishop Vikentios of Avlon, the spiritual leader of St. Irene's, said he was called shortly after midnight yesterday by a nun who heard the church alarm. The burglar apparently entered from the roof, shattering a window 30 feet above the altar and lowering a rope, the police said.
The burglar was apparently cut by the glass, the police said, since there was a trail of blood. A large splotch of blood stained a portrait of Solomon above the nave near the broken window, and blood led from the floor below the dangling rope to an icon of the Virgin Mary, whose glass case was battered but not shattered, and then to the icon of St. Irene, which was not damaged. More blood was on a wall outside the church, by a side exit.
The church had just finished a four-day celebration of the feast of St. Irene, during which the icon was carried through the neighboring streets in a solemn procession. Bishop Vikentios speculated that the icon -- which is always bedecked by gold watches, diamond rings, pearl necklaces and other valuables left by supplicants -- may have attracted the attention of the burglar then. ''It's the treasure of the church,'' he said.
After worshipers reported that the icon started weeping just before the Persian Gulf war -- St. Irene had lived in the ninth century in what is now Turkey -- thousands of people started going each day to the small but ornate church on 23d Avenue near 36th Street.
As Christmas neared that year, church officials announced that bandits who were masked and armed had invaded the church and taken the icon.
At the time, the robbery deepened the break between St. Irene Chrysovalantou -- the headquarters church of a dissident group within the Greek Orthodox Church -- and the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of North and South America. The two groups were divided by 13 days, the difference between the Julian calendar used by St. Irene and the 30,000 members of the Old Calendrist group, and the Gregorian calendar followed since 1924 by the 1.5 million members of Greek Orthodox Church.
Officials at the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese cast doubt on the icon's weeping and suggested that its theft and recovery were hoaxes. Officials at St. Irene's responded with a $30 million libel suit against the archdiocese and two local newspapers.
But after the dispute, there was a rapprochement. After Archbishop Spyridon was appointed leader of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of North and South America, he opened discussions with Old Calendrist churches, and in April the Old Calendrists were welcomed back into the mother church, as both sides agreed to disagree on which calendar to use.
In fact, Archbishop Spyridon attended some of the festivities over the weekend for the feast of St. Irene, and yesterday afternoon he visited the church and surveyed the bloodstains and the shattered case of the icon of the Virgin.
This time there were words of consolation, not consternation.
''It shows a lack of respect for the religious beliefs of others,'' Archbishop Spyridon said as he stood by the icons. ''I can only hope that this will not be repeated.''

Electric Motor Diagnosis | |
One of the best selling points about A.O.Smith single phase motors is that they have constructed them with the switches needed to start the motor on the outside where they can be serviced without dismantling the motor. The switches can be adjusted easily and even replaced without even removing the motor from the device it drives. This was a great innovation that quickly moved A.O.Smith into a class above most of it's competitors. What many people don't realize is you can tollerate a great deal of bearing noise as long as the motor keeps running. The vibration from a slowly deteriorating bearing is responsible for wearing into the ears that retain the springs that make the stationary switch operate and even hold it's parts together. If you are replacing the governor assembly too often chances are you have a bearing that needs replacement also. We sell the parts and are willing to coach you concerning any of your motor , pumps, & electrical equipment needs . Contact us! |
Electric Motor Diagnosis | |
It may seem rather crude but a long blade (12") flat screwdriver with a platic or wood handle can be a valuable tool in tracking down a noise in any kind of rotataing equipment. The length of the blade keeps you a safe distance away from getting caught in the rotating shaft & at the same time allow you a solid object to transmit the noise to where you can hear it. If you place the flat blade end on either end of a running motor & bringing the handle to where you can place your "best" ear onto the handle you wil be able to pin-point which end of the motor most transmits the noise you are hearing. Apply the same method to each end, the center of the motor housing, the base on which the motor is mounted & then determine where the noise resonates the loudest. This will help you determine where to begin dismantling or at least give you valuable information in the event that you are plannning to call and ask for advice. Contact us if we can be of further assistance |
Electric Motor Diagnosis | |
Most of the time the rusty powder is evidence of metal erosion due to 2 metal parts that are moving against each other causing small particles of metal to be rubbed away and the discoloration happens when these oxidize. Often a loose set screw on a pulley will allow that pulley to get loose creating a noise and this erosion. Likewise, when a ball bearing gets loose in it's housing the same erosion occurs inside of the motor but the red powder will often show evidence on the outside of the shaft opening. |
Electric Motor Diagnosis | |
If the motor hums, it sounds like it is time to teach it some words...or perhaps there is another problem. Humming often indicates frozen bearings or bad start capacitors. With the power off attempt to rotate the shaft. If it does not move freely or seems significantly loose and wobbly the bearings are likely the culprit. If the bearings check out, then it is time to determine if the capacitor is failing. Starting capacitors are usually black plastic cylindrical shaped with metal terminals on one end. There is usually a small 1/4"round tan colored window between the terminals that is made of a flexible membrane designed to rupture if an internal failure produces pressure. The first thing to do is look at this membrane to see if it either has a pin-hole or is blown clear open. (On occasion the whole top will blow all of it's contents eliminating any doubt of a failure.) Beyond the obvious physical evidence capacitors can still look fine and yet be bad. It requires a capacitor tester to check them otherwise. I f you happen to be lucky enough to have another capacitor you can carefully substitute another one long enough to see if the motor will start. WARNING: only a capacitor of the same value (ex 161uf- 120v) may be trusted to permanently start your motor. Each capacitor has 2 ratings one called micro-farad (abbreviated "uf") and then voltage (abbreviated "v or vac") You can always use a capacitor of a higher VOLTAGE rating than the original but should always strive to stay close (within10%) of the "uf" rating. Contact us with any other questions we'd be happy to help solve your problem! |
Bearing Failure | |
One of the most common problems in furnace blowers and light duty motors that use an all angle sleeve bearing is that as that bearing wears and becomes looser the magnetic field that makes the rotor assembly go around is able more easily to pull that rotor assembly against the stationary iron preventing it from rotating while power is applied. The easiest way to determine if this is the issue is to firmly grab the motor shaft while holding the motor against a bench or allowing the mounting to hold it, and see if there is movement side to side or up and down against the side of the bearings. NOTE: it is normal for the shaft of these motors to have end play- that is to be able to push the shaft in toward the motor or pull it out slightly, however there should be no play side to side. One other possibility for the failure of these motors to run, while humming, is a bad motor run capacitor. If there is an externally mounted capacitor on this motor, you can easily remmove it & bring it in we will be glad to test it for you. |
Three Phase Windings | |
Most customers replace small three phase motors if they are standard frame sizes and replacement cost is low.However,special OEM motors or servo motors can usually be repaired more economically than they can be replaced,especially if the problem is only mechanical, such as bad bearings .If the windings are bad,we can also rewind your motor.At Enyart Electric we use higher quality materials than most manufacturers and pay attention to details that production line workers just can't watch.We rewind all types of electrical apparatus, so feel free to contact us for all your rewind needs. |
Three Phase Windings | |
Yes, inverter duty motors can be rewound.The biggest enemy of inverter duty motors is a corona buildup in the winding.This buildup is produced by the inverter pulses and causes corrosion between turns.This leads to insulation breakdown and failure of the winding.Knowing this we can insulate accordingly and produce a good inverter duty winding. At Enyart Electric we use pulse shield wire and high quality insulation in all our rewinds so using inverters is no problem. Please feel free to Contact us if we can help you with any questions. |
Three Phase Windings | |
The most common 9 lead motors are commonly known as one & two star conncetions. This is the most common connection for motors from fractional to 15-20 hp. The lead numbering is very simply, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. It is always advisable to look carefully at the motor nameplate and inside of the junction box cover for a connection diagram, however if you can't find one grab a continuity tester or ohm-meter and seperate the 9 leads so that none of them are touching and see if the following leads have circuits: 1&4, 2&5, 3&6, then 7&8&9 should all cause your meter to move. There should be no other circuits. If this proves true then you can connect these leads as follows to run on 230V : L1 & 1&7, L2 & 2&8, L3 & 3&9 then tie & insulate 4&5&6. to run on 460V: L1 & 1, L2 &2, L3 &3, tie and insulate 4&7, 5&8, 6&9 If all 9 leads test as if they have continuity and the horsepower of your motor is lower than 20 then it is likely that you have a "Delta Connected Motor" : for 230V connect L1 & 1&6&7, L2 & 2&4&8, L3 & 3&5&9. For 460V connect: L1 &1, L2 & 2, L3 &3, tie and insulate 4&7, 5&8, 6&9. If the result gives you anything but the desired results give a call & we'll be glad to work through the options with you. Contact us. |
Three Phase Windings | |
There are several factors to consider when deciding how to properly protect an electric motor winding. If a readable nameplate is availble there is a category indicating FLA or full load amperage. This is the maximum amout of amperage that this motor should draw on a constant basis while driving it's load. There are most often 2 entries that correspond with 2 different voltages. Let's say that your motor may be operated on either 230Volt or 460V listed like this "230/460" at a position very near on the nameplate you also see Either "A" or "Amps" followed by 30/15 the relative position of these values indicate that if operated on 230V the motor will drw 30 amps or if operated on 460V it will draw 15 amps. Make certain that you know what voltage you are running on. One important fact to know about motor circuits is that any electric motor will draw 5 to 7 times it's rated amperage during the period that it takes to climb from standing still to its' rated speed. So the motor above for a period of 1-2 seconds will draw 75 to 105 amps until it levels out to it's running speed. This is the reason that fuses for motor loads must be time delayed fuses or protected . They must allow for a short-term high in-rush of c urrent and then begin moitoring the motor for a long term amperage of 10% more than it's full load rating. So in the case above a 15 amp motor should be protected for 16.5amps. There are many factors such as temerature and slower starting loads such as blowers that complicate this question . If you would like to discuss your motor feel free to contact us, we'd be happy to help answer your question. Contact Us |
Three Phase Windings | |
In a short article it would be difficult to give an exhaustive answer but there are some common winding failures that leave very specific evidence. After removing one end of your motor, blow dust or dirt off of the windings so that you can see the copper windings as an assembly. If the entire winding (full circle is roasted dark brown or black then the motor was likely overloaded. If there is a pattern where there are 3 or 4 darkened coils next to 6 or 8 normal looking coils and this pattern is repeated uniformly around the entire circle then your motor was receiving power on only 2 of the 3 power lines, (known as a single phase). Causes of a single phase conditions are often as follows, 1 blown fuse, 1 pair of bad contacts in a 3 pole contactor, 1 burnt off wire, 1 wire-nut that worked loose and let a wire escape it's connection. It's critical to find the source of such a failure before allowing a new motor to fail from the same poor source. Other failures are isolated burnt slots out on the circumfrance of the winding where the copper cut through the slot liner & finally blew to the iron laminations, and our all time favorite the mouse or rodent that took one bite too many & whitened his teeth for the last time. Most of the other failures leave irregular evidence of carbon that raise more questions than they answer. Lightning is a common reason that a winding will blow from it's copper to the stator iron. If you have any questions we'd be glad to discuss them with you. Contact us . |
Single Phase Windings | |
Single phase motors vary as much as their respective applications. There are a few common numberings that may address quite a few single phase applications. If the wires in a single phase motor have numbers either printed on the wire-jackets or tags wrapped around the leads 70% of the time 1,2,3,&4 are Main Winding leads and indicate that this motor may be operated on 115 or 230V. The most frequent numbering for the Auxiliary or Starting Winding is #5 & #8, . If this motor only had 6 leads they would be connected as follows, for 115V L1 would feed #1 & #3 & #5, and L2 would feed #2 & #4 & # 8 this motor could be reversed by interchanging #5 & #8. To run this same motor on 230V : L1 would feed #1, then #2 & #3 & #5 would be tied together & insulated and L2 would feed #4 & #8. this motor would also be reversed by interchanging #5 & #8. The issue becomes slightly more complicated when the manufacturer adds an overload protection device in the junction box and eliminated lead #1 directly attaches #1 to the overload and brings 2 additional leads with more arbitrary nnumbering such as P1 & P2 or J1 & J2 . If you will apply yourself to the task you can probably analyze the remaining leads to see what leads still remain. Usually P1 becomes the replacement for #1 and is fed by L1 & any leads that would have been connected to #1 in the previous description will now be hooked to P2 and in doing this the winding is interrupted in the event of an overloaded condition- shutting down all windings thus saving the motor against a failure in the device the motor is driving. If it's more confusing than I just described feel free to give me a call I'd be willing to help decipher what you have. Contact Us |
Single Phase Windings | |
First of all there are more than one possible causes for a burnt ordor. If we are talking about a capacitor start motor, capacitors often fail & will let off a foul odor that resembles something electrical burning. Usually the capacitor will blow it's contents out of the case or at least rupture the 1/4" membrane on it's top. However if the capacitor appears fine removal of one end of the motor will expose the copper windings and allow you to inspect that copper for signs of discoloration and burning. Whether single phase or three phase, discoloration and or evidence of carbon is a good indicator of a burnt winding. |

One challenge often facing the parlor, stage and even trade show performer wishing to present the cups and balls has been the difficulty in finding cups that would be large enough to be seen by those at a distance. While a number of manufacturers have crafted stage-sized cups (often termed "jumbo" cups or "chick" cups because they were large enough to conceal a live young chicken and heavy enough to prevent the bird from moving the cup)in the past, there have been few such cups on the market of late. And finding used cups of this size has been a difficult and often expensive enterprise. A set of copper Paul Fox chick cups went for over $1200 last year.
Pete Biro and James Riser have set about remedying this and both are now making jumbo cups. Pete's cups are crafted in the now classic Paul Fox shape but with two beads rather than the three that encircled the PF chick cups. Their size is a tad bit larger, both in terms of height and width...standing about 4 inches tall. In fact, you could almost squeeze a Paul Fox chick cup into Pete's new version. Pete's making these up in copper and nickel-plate. They have good weight, but aren't so heavy as to hinder handling. I have found them very easy to work with and certainly provide the visibility that most want when seeking a stage-sized cup.
Mike Rogers used to say that the only reason to use jumbo cups was for greater visibility. But I think James Riser's new offering puts that in question. Jim has taken a different approach than "bigger is better." In fact, he began with the notion that many large cups were really too tall for their task. Consequently, he has fashioned a jumbo cup that doesn't stand terribly much higher than a regular Paul Fox or Johnson Products cup. However, he has widened the capacity significantly, allowing what looks almost like a regular-sized cup to conceal a very large load. I guess another way for putting it would be that he has tried to maximize the load capacity while minimizing the cups size. Crafted with Jim's noted care, these cups have a very nice heft to them. However, he has intentionally spun them to nest a bit more loosely than his mini-cups, allowing them to handle rather easily and quietly. Made of heavy duty copper, they are shaped like his mini-cups -- a bit squat with a single bead around the center.
