If you remember back to the fall, we brought in an angus-hereford cross bull to breed our cows. Last Tuesday our first calf was born! A little bull calf born to our Dexter Sweet Momma. I have been watching and waiting for weeks for this arrival. She was HUGE and I am amazed that her calf came so late. Her daughter, Buttermilk, a Dexter-Belted Galloway cross is still pregnant and I think she will likely calve in the next week. This will be her first calf, so I am extra attentive to the process.
As it happened, this calf, currently being called Spot, was born on our oldest child's birthday. I have been checking on the cows multiple times a day and finally, I found the cow in labor. It is funny, because for weeks I have been thinking "is she/isn't she?" but when she was actually in labor, there was no question. She made a very low mooing sound, somewhat like a moo/growl/sigh. She was way back in the woods by the back pond. I hung out with her for a while, taking pictures, but also had to help manage things in the house as we were having a sleepover for the birthday boy.
He was up on his feet within an hour and the kids all got to see him nurse before heading in for movies and popcorn. It was an amazing birthday. We also had chicks hatch that day.
The calf is doing great. He is very friendly and curious. We are going to try to halter train him and plan to keep him for at least 2-3 years and allow him to breed back to his mother and half-sister for more meat cows. It seems like an odd thing to do, but this is much easier than bringing in a bull every two years.
This past summer we had a bumper crop of birdhouse gourds. For whatever reason, they seem to grow really well in our garden.
We waited until just before the first frost and then picked them. In all, we had over 60 gourds. We tied a string to the neck of each gourd and hung them in the garage all fall and winter. They dried out completely and were ready for crafting. The kids joined a local 4-H group this spring and we decided to donate them to the group to be made into birdhouses to raise money for a lego robotics project the kids are doing this fall.
We sanded each of the gourds to make them smooth. Steel wool seemed to work the best.
Then Mike drilled a 2-inch opening in each one. Jackson and I are prepping them: untying them and sorting them by size. Some were too small, and some had lovely rattling seeds and we made those into shakers.
We invited other 4-H members over after the gourds had been drilled and cleaned. The kids had a blast painting them.
We found places for them all to dry.
I loved the way they looked on the rocks in the sun.
After they dried, we drill a 1/4-inch set of holes in the top for a string to hang them up and in the bottom for drainage. We touched up any paint that got chipped, sprayed them with a coat of clear acrylic to make them water-proof and hung them to dry. I have to admit, I really didn't want to take them down. I would love for my porch to look like this all the time.
We brought them to our tent a a town tag-sale. They sold well. Jackson was an especially persuasive salesman. We still have a bunch more and I think I might have the kids paint up a set just for us to hang. I have more plants growing in the garden as well, so there will be more to do next year.
Last year we lost our ducks and geese to predators and a harsh winter. We decided we needed to replace them this year (sans the geese, which our older son has never really cared for — maybe we'll get geese again some day). For now, it's just ducks.
We got our baby ducks at Tractor Supply Company in late April. We were there to get feed with the kids and they talked us into getting them. The truth is that we did want to replace the ducks, so it was easy to win us over. We ended up getting 6 pekin, 4 rouen and 2 blue Swedish.
After bringing them home and having them in a fairly tiny indoor enclosure for a few days (ducks stink when confined), we moved them to an outside run.
We'd still bring them into the garage at night since it was still a bit chilly at night.
At the same time I started building the new duck house. It was a simple 2 x 4 building with an interesting choice for roofing. We had an old door we'd removed from our previous house when we'd moved. It had a dog door cut in it and our realtor had said it would be better to have a new door. So this old door has been sitting in our garage for almost 6 years, but we're finally putting it to good use — a hinged roof for our duck house (all the easier for cleaning). The dog door opening would serve as a smaller door for feeding the ducks.
We put siding on and painted it to match our chicken coop.
The temporary run was a duck resort for a couple weeks.
The duck house itself was to sit out over the water on a new dock, which we built out of pressure treated lumber. It required getting wet.
The kids seemed to find it a good opportunity to get soaked.
Soon the dock was ready for the duck house.
We moved the duck house over to the pond on our trailer, slid it onto the dock and secured it.
We moved the ducks into their new home.
We'll keep them in their run for a while longer until they learn how to get in and out of their new home. Ultimately, I'll also put a ramp on the water side, so the ducks and come and go via without ever coming onto land. That should make things a bit harder for our predators to get these guys.
I came across this super simple rustic bench design from a magazine that my wife's parents gave me. It's called an "Aldo Leopold Bench". Named after Aldo Leopold, a famous environmentalist.
From his Wikipedia article:
Leopold was influential in the development of modern environmental ethics and in the movement for wilderness conservation. His ethics of nature and wildlife preservation had a profound impact on the environmental movement, with his ecocentric or holistic ethics regarding land. He emphasized biodiversity and ecology and was a founder of the science of wildlife management.
It looked like something I wanted to build and quite simple, too.
There are various designs for the bench. Mine used 2×8 lumber and called for two boards per bench: one 8-foot board and one 10-foot board.
The seat and back were made from the 8-foot board. I cut that board into a 49½-inch piece and a 46½-inch piece. That's a single cut and maximizes the usable wood. The seat is 3 inches shorter than the back because it sits inside the legs (each 1½ thick).
The legs consist of two identical longer leg sections (which also form the sides of the bench) and two identical shorter leg sections. In my bench, the longer legs were 36 inches long and the shorter legs were 17¼ inches long. With my speed square I marked out 22½-degree cuts on each end. It was a cinch.
Everything is then laid out and screwed together. Once the cuts are made, it's almost impossible to put it together wrong. Just make sure the legs mirror each other.
Love the way it looks.
Ended up making two of them. These are destined to live at the pond near where I'm going to put a new duck house I'm building (more on that later!). We liked them so much, I think I'll make another one for the garden and a couple for the fire pit area as soon as I get a chance.
Shopping List
- One 2×8×8 cedar, redwood or treated lumber (seat and backrest)
- One 2×8×10 cedar, redwood or treated lumber (front and rear legs)
- 2½-inch galvanized deck screws
- Mark one end of the 2×8×10 at a 22½-degree angle with a speed square. Then cut with a circular saw. Make a mark 36 inches away and repeat the cut at the same angle. Cut the remaining front leg and two back legs from the same piece (two 36-inch pieces and two 17¼-inch pieces). Cut the seat and backrest from the 2×8×8 (one 49½-inch piece and one 46½-inch piece).
- Fasten the legs together. Stack the seat and backrest as guides and then align the legs against them. Fasten legs together with three 2½-inch screws.
- Attach the seat and backrest. Stand the two ends up and screw the seat in place. Lay the bench down and attach the backrest with screws.
This morning at the pond I first spotted a pair of Canadian Geese. Then I noticed the Great Blue Heron, standing quite still and slender. We've seen Canadian Geese quite a bit, but have only seen a Heron at our pond once or twice before this (once was right after I put fish in the pond, and I never really saw the fish again, so I wonder if the Heron ate them).
I got as close as I could with my 300mm lens, snapped a few and then it took off. Simply amazing! Too bad I'm using a mirrorless with poor follow-focus. Nevertheless, a few turned out pretty good.
Then I stalked closer to grab some pictures of the Geese.
We used to have our own domesticated ducks and geese on the pond but we suffered predator loss and a hard winter. I imagine not having them around has encouraged the wildlife.
Winter has been pretty long this year. It's been something like the coldest or second coldest average temps since recording began, including 6 degrees below average thus far in March. Luckily, our snow is almost all gone, and our animals are starting to get out and about more to munch on grasses they turned their noses up at last fall. It also means it's easier to check on things and do our periodic animal care. For the adult sheep, that means hoof trimming and deworming. For the lambs, it means vaccinations, tail docking and wethering the baby ram we won't be keeping for breeding stock.
First the lambs. We caught each of them in turn and gave them their procedures. For the girls, that was just the tail docking and vaccination. For the boys, it was tail docking, vaccination and, for the ram we're not keeping intact, wethering. The vaccine we use is Covexin-8, which protects our lambs against some of the natural harms that may befall them in the early spring (it provides protection against eight types of clostridial bacteria). We actually had a lamb die of this very issue, so we're pretty good about giving the vaccinations these days.
This winter has been hard on our sheeps' hooves. They were overgrown in most cases and in several were definitely smelly. It's a rotten smell, which is a precursor to infected hooves as organic matter gets stuck in the hoof and slowly rots. It's best to keep their nails trimmed and we'll want to followup on them in a couple weeks.
PS Looks like snow isn't out of the picture, they're calling for possible "BINGO!" accumulations for Tuesday night into Wednesday. Let's hope the storm tracks further east (sorry Rhode Island and the Cape).
It is hard to have a conversation with anyone these days that doesn't involve the weather. It has been a brutal winter. Frigidly cold and very snowy. Spring is just two days away and yet we still have snow on the ground in many places and the pond is still frozen. At this point in the year we would usually be prepping the garden and starting to plant. At this rate we will be lucky to get seeds in by the middle of April.
We have been feeling increasingly like being outside despite the cold. We are so thankful for our large fire pit. A few weeks ago, Mike and the kids had an evening campfire on the snow. Tonight, we had our first campfire dinner of the year. It was delicious. Good thing we can combat the frigid temps with warm fire!!
Sometimes we make lovely, colorful things out of fabric and wool. Other times our tasks are a bit more . . .gooey? We have had nine rabbit pelts sitting in the freezer for almost a year. This week, we brined them and then spent an hour yesterday fleshing them. We followed the instructions here. We did this same thing about four years ago and turned the pelts into a quilt and some hats Fleshing is a kind of gross but oddly satisfying task. You pull off one layer of skin to get to the layer that will eventually turn into leather. If you are the kind of person who likes peeling glue from your fingers, this might be a task you would like. The pelts don't really smell but are just kind of wet and rubbery.
Now that the layer of flesh has been removed, they will go back in the brine bucket for another week before they get tanned. Then we will have to figure out what to make from them. Three were from adult rabbits that we needed to cull so their pelts are large and the leather should be really thick.
You can see the steps we followed below.
Frozen pelts that have been thawing for a few days.
Brine with 1 cup kosher salt, 1 cup ammonium alum and 2 gallons water.
Pelts all stretched out.
Rinsing out the pelts.
Pelts in the brine. This was put in the basement for a few days and stirred daily.
Rinsing the pelts after brining.
Squelching the water out.
Elsa was pretty curious.
Pulling of the outer fleshy layer of skin.
Fleshy bits.
A nice, white, fleshed skin. The small holes were from the nipples.
A half-fleshed pelt. The white area has been fleshed. The flesh needs to be removed to tan it properly.
The last pelt and a bowl full of skin bits.
I feel like January and February are some of the most creative months for us. The garden and livestock are all in hibernation mode (mostly, the exception being the new lambs). The weather is cold and gray and sometimes white. And so, we turn to making and creating and adding vibrant color to our lives.
Miss C got a sewing machine from Santa last Christmas. She has been working on perfecting her seams and if anyone needs a pincushion or coffee coaster, let me know. She sells them for a hug each She and I have also been working on a project each day. We made a few pillows for her room and then have been making monsters. Each one was completely designed by C and then stitched by me. It is harder than it might seem to turn her drawings into three dimensional stuffed toys. Today we made the blue turtle monster and she was SO happy. I might try to make another tomorrow and give it a different head-to-body ratio (bigger head, smaller body). C has also been making drawings, frames, and pot holder looms. And, about eleventy bazillion loom bracelets. She also took a felt bunting we made last year and turned it into a mobile for her room. I love the way it looks, like bubbles in the ocean.
Morgan also got in on the action. He has been really into stories about zombies lately, so this is a zombie monster with three eyes and blood. Fun times
Apparently making weird looking things is a 'thing' for us. Here is a set of zombie princesses vs. cavemen we made in the fall.
I hope you find some time to make something or enjoy something lovely that was made with the amazing artistic eye of a child.
This morning, for the first time ever, I got to see a lamb get born. I actually got to catch one lamb (it was going to drop into the snow) and see another! It was pretty exciting. We knew that two of our ewes were very close, so we were ready. Usually they lamb in the very early morning, but this time, it was around 8:30am. I got to the barn to see Frances on the ground pushing. I sent Jackson back to get Mike and the camera, quickly fed the other sheep and cows and got to her right as she stood up to drop the lamb.
I caught it and then quickly held it to her nose and walked her into the barn. I closed the gate and a few minutes later Mike and Jackson got there. She cleaned her lamb and we assembled a hay stall for her. This worked well for us last year. The hay insulates the sheep and keeps the draft off the babies. They will stay in there for a few days until they are stronger. Then they will get free reign of the barn for a week until they can be out with the flock.
After she cleaned off the first lamb, I again picked it up and held it to her nose and walked her into the hay stall. We closed it up and within a few minutes, the other lamb dropped. She cleaned it and within twenty minutes, both lambs were on their feet trying to nurse. She has one ram and one ewe! It is our first ewe lamb from her which is exciting because she is the best ewe ever and I would like to have a lamb from her. It is very cold this week which is unfortunate, but the lambs are really only at risk for hypothermia in the first hour after birth and only when wet. These guys are dry and warm and so hopefully will be just fine.
Not only did we get to see the birth, but Mike got to film the second one. You can see it on the video below. Just a word of caution, it is a lamb being born, so their are some gooey bits in the video. You can also see more pictures on Flickr.

9th Circuit overturns AZ proof-of-citizenship voting rule
Tweet |
Yes, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals strikes again.
And yes, Sandra Day O'Connor played a role in helping the liberal majority.
The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has overturned Arizona's requirement that people show proof of citizenship to register to vote.
The split decision by a three-judge panel determined that the requirement to show proof of citizenship — passed by voters in 2004 — is not consistent with the National Voter Registration Act.
Associate Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, temporarily sitting by designation, and Circuit Judge Sandra Ikuta, with chief judge Alex Kozinski dissenting, said Prop. 200 creates an additional hurdle, while the national act is intended to reduce "state-imposed obstacles" to registration.
The court did uphold Arizona's photo ID requirement.
But as you know from reading this blog, the Obama Department of Social Justice has also been actively sabotaging state efforts to ensure that only U.S. citizens vote in U.S. elections.
More details on the 9th Circuit ruling:
A three-judge panel of the court said the proof-of- citizenship requirement conflicted with the intent of the federal law aiming to increase voter registration by streamlining the process with a single form and removing state- imposed obstacles to registration.
The federal law requires applicants to "attest to their citizenship under penalty of perjury" without requiring documentary proof, the panel said.
"Proposition 200 creates an additional state hurdle to registration," the judges said.
The law was challenged by voting rights and Hispanic advocacy groups.
The decision is "a warning to anyone who seeks to deter or prevent voter participation" that the Constitution "will protect our democratic process," Thomas A. Saenz, president of the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund, a San Antonio-based group that argued the case, said in a statement.
As I've noted before: No illegal alien left behind. That's the progs' plan.

Gary Williams: Young Terps need to regain confidence
Tue, 15 Jan 2013|
Csnwashington.com. Are an -- legendary head Coach Gary Williams joins us now are a coach Maryland. They started a thirteen game winning streak but their last two games it seems like -- often has just not been able to show what is gone wrong from Ireland.
Truly the ball hasn't gone an event. That's scheme -- right -- and core that's it. But what happens is when when you get into league play if you have any -- it all they really show up because other teams have scouted now for a month and a half. And they're really ready to go in those games are really important when -- Little League obviously so. What -- has to do is just come out and make a couple shots early there are very young team. And when you're young and like against Florida State in their in their second league game where they had the lead and wants to lead. Second shake your confidence pretty quick so they got to get their confidence back. The best players have to take the most shots which is hard to do sometimes in basketball but that has to go and then I think they can go compete with NC state coming up.
Dad's been a bit of a reality check for the meantime well NC state they're coming and on Wednesday at they just coming off a big one over Duke. How could Maryland be able to get the best NC state.
Well -- sometimes that really helps when the teams had a great win that they're cocky you know they feel good about themselves and they're still thinking about the -- how it felt to beat Duke and the students stormed the court and things like that whereas -- coming off a loss. When your team loses as a coach you usually have their attention -- next game they're really gonna. Pay attention to what he's -- practice and you know NC State's going to spend some time trying to get ready calmed down again get ready so I think it's a great opportunity for her own playing at home to go get NC state.
let's switch over to the CAA now George Mason taking on James Madison you can catch that -- game tonight on our air at 7 o'clock.
that's good news is wide open so attuned to hasn't hurt you at all for what you wanna do at the end of the year. Now what Mason really has to do was scored their home court number one is a very big game because -- playing at home for coming off a road loss is going to be very important here. That you can win every game at home in and steal some on the road and he'll be fine and we play. I thank you very much we appreciate your time as always thank you. CSN Washington dot com.

On Record Store Day-- April 16, this Saturday-- Nick Cave's gnarled, depraved band Grinderman will release a 12" single for the Grinderman 2 song "Evil", as previously reported. The single, a red glitter vinyl platter with a CD included, features the original version of the song, an early demo version, and a remix from Factory Floor. The real selling point, though, is probably the remix of the song by Silver Alert, the duo of Peter Mavrogeorgis and Grinderman drummer Jim Sclavunos, which features a lead vocal from Matt Berninger, the singer for the National and Nick Cave's peer in elegantly depressive baritone awesomeness. And right now, you stream the queasy remix at NME.

SHOLDER, of Cleveland, in the county I of (Juyahoga and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hose-Couplings and I do hereby declaredhe following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use it, reference being had to the accompanying drawi'n gs, which form part of this specification. My invention relates to hose-couplings; and it consists in so constructing a hose-coupling that it can be manufactured much cheaper and at the same time be just as serviceable in every respect as any of the more expensive ones now in use. It is also much more easily manipulated, and can becoupled in an instant without the use of a wrench or any like tool. In the drawings, Figure 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of my coupling, having screwthreads formed on the male and female parts to adapt them to beattached to the common screw-coupling now in use. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of my coupling, showing it attached directly to the hose. Fig. 3 is a plan view, showing the openings of the female part of my cou iiling; and Figs. 4 and 5 are isometric views of the male and female parts, showing them in position tobe coupled. Like letters of reference represent corresponding parts in the several figures. A represents the male part of my coupling, and is provided with lugs a, and also spigot b and shoulder c. As shown in Fig. 1, in some cases I provide thispart with afemale thread, which corresponds with the male thread of the common scrmvcoupling, so that it may be readily attached to hose having said male screw part. B represents the female part of my coupling, which is provided with openings 63 and inclines c, said inclines being roughened. f is an annular rubber packing. It will be seen by reference to Fig. 1 of the drawings that I also provide this part with a screw-thread adapted to correspond with the female thread of the common screw-coupling, so that it also may be readily attached to hose having said female screw part. The operation ot niy device is as follows: The male part A of my coupling is attached to one end of a length of hose, either directly, as shown in Fig. 2, or by means of the male part of the common screw-coupling, as the case may be. Ihe female part B is attached to one end of the length to be coupled with the first length, either directly, as shown in Fig. 2, or by means of the female part of the commonscrew-coupling, as shown in Fig. 1. Now, to couple thcparts the lugs a arebrought opposite the openings d, which are large enough to admit them. After being entered the parts A and B are turned in opposite directions, and the lugs a coming in contact with the inclines c, said inclines bring the shoulder 0 against the packing f, which, being pressed tightly between shoulder c and its seat on the female part of the coupling, forces it against the outer circumference of spigot I), and also the inner circumference of the female part of the coupling, thus forming a perfectly tight joint. It will beseen that I have provided the inclines c with roughened faces. My reason for this is to keep the lugs a from slipping back after being once turned in place upon said inclines, the rubber packingserving to force the sharp side of the lugs atightly againstthe said roughened face of the incline and hold it there. v It will also be seen that my coupling can be manufactured much cheaper than many now in use, as the only work on them after they are cast is to clean them, the annular rubber packing, when compressed between the shoulder cam]. its seat in the female part of the coupling, filling every irregularity of the surfaces with which it comes in contact, and hence forming a perfectly tightjoint. What I claim isk 1. A hose-coupling, the same being provided on its male portion with lugs a and on its female part with inclines c, said inclines having a roughened face, substantially :as described. 2. In a hose-coupling, the combination of the male part A, with its lugs a, shoulder c, and spigot 11 of the female part, said female part being provided'with inclines c and washer f, substantially as described. 3. A hose-coupling substantially as described, one part of said hose-coupling being 'screvmhreaded in such a manner that it may to this specification in the presence of two subbe at ached to the male part of the common scribing witnesses. 1 scre -e0upling, and. the other part; being adapted to be attached to thefemale part of said common screw-coupling, substantially as Witnesses: described.

Observability criteria for winding currents in three-phase brushless DC drives
Publication Year: 1993 , Page(s): 264 - 270
Cited by: Papers (1)A rigorous method for applying observability criteria to the estimation of winding currents in brushless DC drives is presented. Observability is related to the drive's operating condition, both motoring and regenerating, and to the pulse-width modulated (PWM) switching strategy being employed. The precise conditions under which motor winding currents can be estimated from measurements of DC link current are clearly defined. A modified single current sensor arrangement, in which switching device currents are measured, is shown to improve the observability of currents with complementary switching, but to have an adverse effect on observability with the basic switching strategy. An arrangement involving two current sensors allows discontinuous estimation of the winding currents for all operating conditions and both switching strategies. The primary advantage of this technique is that measurements by each sensor are made equally on all three phases of the motor View full abstract»
Real-time multi-DSP control of three-phase current-source unity power factor PWM rectifier
Publication Year: 1993 , Page(s): 295 - 300
Cited by: Papers (3)The design of a real-time multi-DSP controller for a high-quality six-valve, three-phase current-source unity power factor pulse-width-modulated (PWM) rectifier is discussed. With the decoupler preprocessor and the dynamic trilogic PWM trigger scheme, each of the three input currents can be controlled independently. The pole-placement control method implemented, which is based on the
a -b -c frame system model and fast parallel computer control, achieves fast AC current response. The low-frequency resonance in the AC filterL -C networks is damped effectively. The experimental results were obtained for a 1 kVA bipolar transistor current-source PWM rectifier with a real-time controller using three TMS320C25 DSPs View full abstract» -
Real-time dynamic control of dynamic power filters in supplies with high contamination
Publication Year: 1993 , Page(s): 301 - 308
Cited by: Papers (12)A real-time closed-loop system for controlling dynamic power filters under rapidly varying nonlinear loading conditions is tested and evaluated. With the aid of a dedicated microprocessor system, using correlation algorithms, real-time reference signals for a dynamic compensation system are generated. In order to facilitate a cost effective compensation system, separate compensation of the fundamental reactive power component and the harmonic components is further investigated. A total algorithm time of 312 μs for a 50 Hz system is achieved, providing accurate compensation effort up to the 21st power system harmonic View full abstract»
Discrete pulse modulation strategies for high-frequency inverter systems
Publication Year: 1993 , Page(s): 279 - 287
Cited by: Papers (23) | Patents (2)High-performance, high-frequency inverter systems for UPS (uninterruptible power system) applications cannot be easily realized using conventional hard-switched PWM inverter topologies. Adoption of typical soft-switched inverters such as the resonant DC link inverter, require the use of discrete pulse modulation strategies. New controller structures are necessary to cope with stringent voltage regulation and distortion constraints in the presence of unbalanced and nonlinear loads. A controller that utilizes a load current feedforward strategy with a cost function current regulator to achieve excellent transient performance characteristics is presented. Voltage regulation is ensured using a synchronous frame regulator. Detailed simulation and experimental results verifying the concepts are presented. Although this work focuses on soft-switching inverters, the control concepts can be applied to conventional hard-switching inverters as well View full abstract»
Control-loop modeling of multiple-output feedback of forward converters
Publication Year: 1993 , Page(s): 320 - 328
Cited by: Papers (21)A small-signal model is developed for the forward converter with multioutput feedback. In the basis of the model developed, feedback compensation schemes are proposed to stabilize the circuit. The closed-loop circuit performances such as line regulation, cross regulation, and load regulation, are expressed analytically in terms of multiple-loop gains of the system View full abstract»
Unity PF current-source rectifier based on dynamic trilogic PWM
Publication Year: 1993 , Page(s): 288 - 294
Cited by: Papers (58)One remaining step in perfecting the stand-alone, unity power factor, regulated current-source pulse-width-modulated (PWM) rectifier is to reduce cost, by bringing the twelve-valve converter (consisting of three single-phase full bridges that operate with two-level or bilogic PWM) to the six-valve bridge. However, the six-valve topology requires a three-level or trilogic PWM strategy that can handle feedback signals. A general method of translating three-phase biologic PWM signals into three-phase trilogic PWM signals is presented. The method of translation retains the characteristics of the bilogic PWM, including the frequency bandwidth. Experiments show that the trilogic PWM signals produced by the method can handle not only stabilizing feedback signals but also signals for active filtering View full abstract»
State-space models for current programmed pulsewidth-modulated converters
Publication Year: 1993 , Page(s): 271 - 278
Cited by: Papers (38)State-space models are derived for pulse-width-modulated (PWM) converters operating at constant switching frequency under current programmed control. One model neglects the sample-and-hold effect of the current loop and is therefore representative of the traditional approach to modeling current programmed converters. The order of the model is the same as that of the power stage. A second state-space model is derived which incorporates the sample-and-hold effect. The order of this model is two higher than that of the power stage. A comparison of the two models is made which clearly demonstrates the superiority of the second modeling approach. As the models are in state-space form they may be quite readily used in a CAD package for general converter analysis and design, to determine all transfer functions and associated pole/zero locations of interest View full abstract»
Phase-controlled series-parallel resonant converter
Publication Year: 1993 , Page(s): 309 - 319
Cited by: Papers (47) | Patents (1)A constant-frequency, phase-controlled, series-parallel resonant DC-DC converter is introduced, analyzed in the frequency domain, and experimentally verified. To obtain the DC-DC converter, two identical series-parallel resonant inverters are paralleled and the resulting phase-controlled resonant inverter is loaded by a voltage-driven rectifier. The converter can regulate the output voltage at a constant switching frequency in the range of load resistance from full-load resistance to infinity while maintaining good part-load efficiency. The efficiency of the converter is almost independent of the input voltage. For switching frequencies slightly above the resonant frequency, power switches are always inductively loaded, which is very advantageous if MOSFETs are used as switches. Experimentally results are given for a converter with a center-tapped rectifier at an output power of 52 W and a switching frequency of 127 kHz. The measured current imbalance between the two inverters was as low as 1.2:1 View full abstract»
Economic single-phase to three-phase converter topologies for fixed and variable frequency output
Publication Year: 1993 , Page(s): 329 - 335
Cited by: Papers (35)Several component-minimized circuit topologies for single-phase to three-phase conversion are proposed. The topologies employ fewer semiconductor devices and generate high-quality output voltages. Suitable modification to achieve active input current shaping is illustrated in detail. Analysis and simulation of the proposed schemes are carried out to show the high-performance features. Suitable guidelines for the selection of filter components and for facilitating circuit design are presented. Selected results are verified experimentally on laboratory prototype converters View full abstract»
Multimodular current-source SPWM converters for a superconducting magnetic energy storage system
Publication Year: 1993 , Page(s): 250 - 256
Cited by: Papers (38) | Patents (2)The advantages of using multiple modules of the current-source, sinusoidal pulse-width-modulated (SPWM), three-phase, six-valve converters as the power conditioner for the superconducting magnetic energy system are highlighted. A high degree of controllability is obtained by using dynamic SPWM trilogic as the operating strategy. Very low switching losses are assured by using two carrier triangles per modulated cycle. By partial connection of converter modules, and by phase-shifting the triangle carriers, the following are obtained: increasing the current capacity to the level required by the superconducting magnet; reducing conduction losses; meeting harmonic standards, without the need of an expensive filter, by harmonic cancellation; and achieving a high frequency bandwidth View full abstract»
400 MW SMES power conditioning system development and simulation
Publication Year: 1993 , Page(s): 237 - 249
Cited by: Papers (34) | Patents (2)A conceptual design for a 22 MWh superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) system engineering test model (ETM) was developed. The objectives of the SMES-ETM are to demonstrate the feasibility of using a SMES system to perform load-leveling and system stabilization for commercial utilities and to supply 400 MW power pulses for ground-based defense systems. The performance requirements and configuration of the proposed 22 MWh SMES-ETM and its power conditioning system are presented. The power conditioning system consists of a DC-DC chopper linked to a GTO-based voltage source converter interfacing the superconducting energy storage coil to the AC power system. The SMES system operation in the charging and discharging modes is described and the results of digital simulations demonstrating the feasibility of the proposed power conditioning system and exploring its overall behavior under normal and fault conditions are prevented View full abstract»
Commutation of SR motors
Publication Year: 1993 , Page(s): 257 - 263
Cited by: Papers (29) | Patents (1)Commutation schemes for most common types of switched reluctance (SR) motors are presented. Commutation can be achieved using two- or three-positions sensors and a simple commutation logic in a similar fashion to brushless electronically commutated motors. The commutation logic can be easily housed on a programmable logic array (PLA) or similar device. Two-quadrant operation, usually with two position sensors with variable phase shift and dwell angles, can be tuned up to achieve optimum efficiency at low cost. Four-quadrant operation with multimode commutation schemes, such as normal, boost, longdwell, and brake, which cover most of the SR drive applications, can be easily implemented with simple logic control and feedback from low-resolution position sensors. The speed range can be increased beyond the limit reachable with pulse-width modulation (PWM). A 100% increase in the speed range can be easily obtained by switching modes View full abstract»

Is it possible to replace the lens cover on the facelift headlights as bought some cheap second hand headlights from ebay and they were scratched I've read the thread on removing the lens but just wondered instead of trying to polish the scratches out just buy new lens Any help would be great Thanks in advance gary
You can polish the lens without any problem. Just flat it back with fine wet and dry and then go to town with some polish. There's various guides out there on the internet so a google search should come up trumps. T
Sorry mucker, the lens is not available seperately. But as the others have said, it really is a piece of p*ss to polish up.

Meltdown Moment
by Slacker And Steve
posted Jan 5 2012 5:19PM
Over what's supposed to be a joyous time of year, two women in Michigan, started attacking each other over a coveted parking space. An Oak Park woman mentioned to police she was cut off by a lady that pulled in front of her to grab a space just south of the entrance to a Nordstrom's. The two apparently exchanged some words before spotting each other again at the door where the other woman "body checked" her. Eventually, the other woman got into a white Toyota and sped away. Unfortunately, many meltdowns like this occur during the holidays and there's usually only one side to the story.
All of Slacker's meltdown moments have been internal or he will tell his wife, but mainly he will just vent it all out in his car. He will never say anything to anybody, except maybe give them the side eye. Once he was trying to buy an ink cartridge and the lady wanted to sell him a gift card. He didn't really want the gift card and he just wanted to go to work so when he walked out, he noticed she charged him for the card, which by the way if you want that gift car, it's yours, but he wishes he could have just gone in there and said, Excuse me, but I think you made a mistake. He doesn't have the guts to do that so he wishes he and Steve could get a life coach to help teach him.
My meltdown moment consists of buying all my favorite junk food, sitting down to a good movie and just crying or like Slacker said, if I'm angry, I'll just yell about it in my car. I do that a lot… I've always had that thought in my mind to grab something and just throw it or shove someone to the floor, but I'm too nice and my brain takes over saying, oh, you're going to have to clean that up or apologize later.
What caused you to have a meltdown moment?
Peace. Love – Assistant Producer Stephanie

Stuff that Burger!
What says pure American gluttony more than a stuffed burger? Nothing! That's why the new fad in burger making accessories are stuffed burger presses. Sure you could easily make a stuffed burger without one of these contraptions, but would it look as good as the picture below? Well, probably. But if you feel like being lazy, below are two options.
Check out this $12 stuffed hamburger press from Williams Sonoma, HERE.
Or the StuftZ Ultimate Stuffed Burger Maker for $19.99, HERE.
My advice, save your money and make it with your hands. It tastes just as good.

It is absurd.
I have paid more THIS year alone that I have paid in the 16 months prior. My water bill went from averaging $90 to averaging $260.
How can that be? How is that fair?

Operation Noah will next week call on the UK Government to change the direction of its Energy Bill, which is currently going through parliament.
Scottish Greens have said the next generation is being left to compensate for the Scottish Government's failure to meet climate change targets.
With greenhouse gas emissions still at high levels, and CO2 concentration in the atmosphere rising year on year, we can more extreme weather in the future.
The December 2012 PRRI/RNS Religion News Survey in the United States has found religious disagreement on what lies behind the severe weather.
Scottish Greens say the UK Chancellor's economic and energy plans fail to respond to a world of staggering inequality and the urgent need to cut carbon.
Negotiations in Doha have achieved little to achieve a binding treaty to reverse the current trends in climate change, a churches' delegation says.
