Prosecutors: Irvin High Teacher Depicted in Homemade Movies
POSTED: Thursday, September 30, 2010 - 9:50pm
UPDATED: Friday, October 1, 2010 - 11:01am
Prosecutors now say Irvin High School dance teacher Marco Alferez had homemade videos depicting him engaging in sex acts with little girls.
Police say they found child porn on Alferez' home computer and tonight, as we have dug into his background, more disturbing evidence has come to light.
Prosecutors say that Alferez tried to hide a camera with a T-shirt and then taped himself having sex with children. They think the youngest victim may be in elementary school.
"I was kind of worried about her," said Irene Calderon. Her daughter had Alferez as a dance teacher last year. She said she was always wary of leaving her alone with him.
"I came to three rehearsals and I saw how he was treating the girls and everything, but I never left my daughter by herself or anything," she said.
We're told prosecutors found 140 homemade videos on his computer with as many as seventy victims. They're not sure if the victims are from El Paso, but they do know Alferez was uploading the videos to the internet and sharing them.
"Well I think they should do a better background check, you know, on our teachers and staff, just to make sure what kind of family background they've had," said Sandra Dogoli. Her daughter is a senior at Irvin High.
EPISD tells us they did run a background check on Alferez and found no criminal history. But some parents think that isn't enough.
"They should check every teacher every year," Calderon said.
We're told Alferez was also a choreographer for Viva El Paso, and though the organization had no comment, we did find credits with his name on their Wikipedia site. We also found a YouTube video possibly of one of Alferez' performances at an El Paso church.
Parents at Irvin High, meanwhile, are shook up, hoping none of their children could be victims of Alferez.
"Be aware of what's going on and talk to your children," Dogoli said.
"It is scary because you think, well I left my girl with him you know," Calderon said.
Prosecutors also say they found 98 so-called commercial videos depicting child pornography on his computer. They will have 30 days now to present their evidence to a grand jury.

Flickr page and other tools make EIA data more accessible
Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration
EIA's recently launched Flickr page provides users with another avenue to view graphs, charts, maps, and other images produced using EIA's data and analysis.
The images stored on EIA's Flickr page are categorized by state. This allows the public and EIA's state, tribal, county, and local stakeholders to quickly find information relating directly to their state's energy production, consumption, prices, and other energy topics covered by EIA's reports.
There are more than 240 images on the Flickr page, including many graphs and maps from Today in Energy articles. The Flickr page includes graphs and maps that illustrate dozens of important energy trends, including:
- Rising crude oil and natural gas production
- Growth in electricity generation by wind, solar, and other renewables
- Transportation bottlenecks for moving energy supplies and commodities
- Changes in energy prices
EIA's Flickr page also contains materials designed specifically for individual states, including Web banners that state agencies can use to link to their EIA state profile.
Over the past year, EIA released many tools designed to make energy information more accessible. These tools include EIA's coal data browser, electricity data browser, and application programming interface (API), to name a few.
These resources and others will be highlighted during EIA's 2014 Energy Conference. The event is being held today and tomorrow at the J.W. Marriott in Washington, DC. Readers can learn more about these resources by attending EIA's 2014 Energy Conference or reading the proceedings that will be posted after the conference.

Java's Serializable
interface provides an easy-to-use programming interface for converting between a runtime object and a byte stream. Serialization involves mapping a runtime object or an object graph into an ObjectOutputStream
, which can then be written to the filesystem or stored in a database. Conversely, deserialization reads the byte stream through the ObjectInputStream
and then maps the byte stream into an object or an object graph.
During object serialization, the default Java serialization mechanism writes the metadata about the object, which includes the class name, field names and types, and superclass. This class definition is stored as a part of the serialized object. This stored metadata enables the deserialization process to reconstitute the objects and map the stream data into the class attributes with the appropriate type.
Java serialization offers two scenarios for data interchange. The first scenario is store-and-retrieve object usage—when a Java-based tool or application needs to store the runtime state information in one session and makes it available for a subsequent session. Java serialization allows the state objects to be written into a filesystem or a database, then retrieved later to reconstitute into the proper state objects.
The second scenario involves two runtime environments interoperating through shared objects. In this case, one application, a catalog order, for example, produces a business object, such as an order, which is then handled by another application, say, a fulfillment system, running on a different application server instance. Java serialization enables these business objects to be sent to another server instance by writing the object content as byte stream. The application running on the other server then deserializes the byte stream back into the proper business objects.
In this article, I use these two scenarios to illustrate best practices for preventing release compatibility from breaking when implementing Java serialization. I begin by discussing how Java serialization provides version control.
Java serialization and SerialVersionUID
In anticipating the need to evolve a serializable class, Java serialization provides a serialVersionUID
, also called suid
, in the ObjectStreamClass
for version control. suid
is used to inform the Java serialization mechanism which version of the class is compatible with this serialized object. However, the importance of this field is often overlooked, resulting in release incompatibility.
package java.io;
public class MySerializableClass implements Serializable {
static String notSerializableString = "static field not serialized";
transient Thread T1; /* Transient field not serialized */
public int aNum = 0;
public String serializedString = "a serialized string";
private void writeObject (ObjectOutputStream s)
throws IOException {
s.defaultWriteObject ();
// Followed by customized serialization code
private void readObject (ObjectInputStream s)
throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException {
s.defaultReadObject ();
// Followed by customized deserialization code
The code snippet above shows a basic implementation of the Java Serializable
interface. The trace listed below shows the object's use, resulting in an InvalidClassException
. This trace reveals a mismatch of the serialVersionUID
found in the local class, i.e., the MySerializableClass
, and the one stored in the serialized object. In this example, the addition of a non-static field in MySerializableClass
results in a different suid
associated with this class. This exception illustrates the following:
- That changes to a serializable class result in a different computed
. - How the Java serialization mechanism matches the
in the current version of the serializable class with the value saved in the object serialized with the class's prior version. This approach provides Java serialization its version control mechanism.
java.io.InvalidClassException: MySerializableClass; Local class not compatible: stream classdesc serialVersionUID=7187368850772554122 local class serialVersionUID=4104486680721271886
at java.io.ObjectStreamClass.validateLocalClass(ObjectStreamClass.java:565)
at java.io.ObjectStreamClass.setClass(ObjectStreamClass.java:609)
at java.io.ObjectInputStream.inputClassDescriptor(ObjectInputStream.java:981)
at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject(ObjectInputStream.java:402)
at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject(ObjectInputStream.java:272)
at java.io.ObjectInputStream.inputObject(ObjectInputStream.java:1231)
at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject(ObjectInputStream.java:422)
at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readObject(ObjectInputStream.java:272)
at MyDeserializeClient.main(MyDeserializeClient.java:27)
The suid
is set in one of two ways, with the first being the default mechanism described above. The Java serialization mechanism automatically computes a hash value. ObjectStreamClass
's computeSerialVersionUID
method passes the class name, sorted member names, modifiers, and interfaces to the secure hash algorithm (SHA), which returns a hash value. This computation technique ensures that most changes in an object's "shape" and attribute types result in different hash values. I elaborate on the significance of this default suid
generation later when I discuss release compatibility.
In the second approach, the developer explicitly sets suid
in the serializable class, as shown in the code below:
package java.io;
public class MySerializableClass implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1999L;
static String notSerializableString = "static field not serialized";
transient Thread T1; /* Transient field not serialized */
public int aNum = 0;
public String serializedString = "a serialized string";
private void writeObject (ObjectOutputStream s)
throws IOException {
s.defaultWriteObject ();
// Followed by customized serialization code
private void readObject (ObjectInputStream s)
throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException {
s.defaultReadObject ();
// Followed by customized deserialization code
A developer can set the suid
with any integer value. However, a developer can also pass the class name to a Java command—serialver
—which computes a hash value using the same algorithm described above. The developer then pastes the return value into the source code. In the following sections, I discuss why it is important for the developer of a serializable class to explicitly set the suid
in the code.
Evolution of a serializable class
Changes to a serializable class can be either compatible or incompatible. A compatible change results in the evolved class being able to deserialize objects serialized by the class of a prior release. Conversely, the object serialized by the evolved class can be deserialized by the class's prior version. Compatible changes typically result from adding fields or objects to the object graph. With the addition of fields or objects, the default Java serialization read-mechanism simply provides default values for the corresponding attribute types. Examples of compatible changes are the following:
- Add fields
- Change a field from static to non-static
- Change a field from transient to non-transient
- Add classes to the object tree
Incompatible changes typically result from the removal of fields or objects from the object tree. As the default read-mechanism traverses the byte stream, it raises an exception when the target field no longer exists to accept the data. For example, when a class found in the prior version no longer exists in the evolved version, the default read-mechanism raises a ClassNotFound
exception, whereas on a missing field, the InvalidArgumentException
is raised.
Examples of incompatible changes include:
- Delete fields
- Change class hierarchy
- Change non-static to static
- Change non-transient to transient
- Change type of a primitive field
For details on the compatible and incompatible Java type changes to a serializable class, see the Java Object Serialization Specification.
Having introduced the notion of a suid
and the compatibility issues involving Java type changes, I am ready to discuss the importance of version control when using Java serialization. First, I present how Java serialization supports version control.
Release compatibility
To preserve an application's stability, release compatibility requires that a new version of an application run interchangeably with that of a prior version, with both exhibiting the same expected behavior. When release compatibility breaks, the client application can no longer run without having to be recompiled or even re-implemented.
With respect to Java serialization, release compatibility requires the following:
- A new version of a serializable class observes its externalized interface so that its client does not need to change.
- The evolved class can deserialize objects serialized by a prior version. Conversely, the prior class can deserialize objects serialized by the evolved class.
This level of compatibility is critical in supporting interoperability across releases in a mixed-version environment or in store-and-retrieve usage scenarios previously described.
In the store-and-retrieve scenario, an application serializes an object and stores it in the database. After this class is enhanced and released in a new application version, the application should be able to retrieve and deserialize the stored object into a runtime object.
In the mixed-release scenario, the producer-consumer relationship is bidirectional. The newly evolved serializable class must be able to deserialize the data serialized by one of a prior implementation. Conversely, the previously released serializable class must be able to deserialize the object serialized by a newer release.
Breaking serialization compatibility has serious consequences; some of which include:
- Broken product migration: Software products may store the installation, configuration, and runtime state information as serialized objects. When serialization compatibility breaks, the new product version will not be able to read the data stored by the prior version, complicating the configuration of a new product release.
- Broken mixed-version interoperability: When one or more products or applications share a serializable class, breaking serialization compatibility in such a class will result in these products or applications failing to exchange runtime objects between Java runtime instances.
- Broken customer applications: Often, a customer application stores business transactions as serialized objects in a database. Subsequently, sometimes weeks or months later, the same application or another application retrieves these serialized objects from the database. If the serializable class used in an application is upgraded, resulting in incompatible serialization changes, the application will fail to deserialize these objects and generate a Java exception.
Java serialization and version control
The Java serialization mechanism provides an approach for version control. At the heart of Java serialization is the ObjectOutputStream
class. It implements the computeSerialVersionUID()
method to compute the suid
during object serialization. This computed suid
is then written to the serialized stream as a part of the serialized object. This suid
in the stream serves as a marker to denote the version of the serializable class with which it is compatible. See Figure 2 for a sample of metadata stored in a serialized object.
The suid
is computed based on the serializable class's name, sorted field names, method names of methods and interfaces, and, finally, modifiers. These names are passed through the secure hash algorithm to derive a long integer value for the suid
. When the suid
is not explicitly set in a serializable class's code, the Java default mechanism automatically and silently computes its value. This suid
value is then placed in the serialized object. When a class changes, such as the addition of a non-static field, the new class will have a suid
value that differs from the prior version.
Before a serialized object is read, the ObjectInputStream
class first computes the suid
of the local class—the serializable class. It then matches this suid
value against the one stored in the serialized object stream. When these two values match, ObjectInputStream
reads off the fields in the stream and maps the values into the instantiated object. If these two values do not match, ObjectInputStream
raises the InvalidClassException
As illustrated in Figure 3, the original serializable class has a suid
of 1
and is stored with the serialized object. When a non-static field is added to this class, Java serialization computes a new suid
value if 2
. Though adding a data member to a serializable class is a compatible change, the evolved class's computed suid
value differs from the one stored with the serialized object.
During deserialization of a serialized object, the Java serialization mechanism computes the suid
based on the evolved class, yielding a value of 2
, which differs from the suid
stored in the serialized object. Since Java serialization fails to match the suid
values, it returns an InvalidClassException
. This scenario highlights the risk of release compatibility when version control is not stringently exercised.
As a best practice, a class that implements the Serializable
interface must explicitly set the suid
, such as:
private final static long serialVersionUID = <integer value>
This practice rightfully puts the control and responsibility on the developer to determine the version of the serialization class with which a serialized object is compatible.
When compatible changes are made to the class, the suid
is set to the same value as the prior release. This practice ensures that objects serialized by the prior release's class will have the same suid
value. Therefore, these objects can be deserialized in the newly evolved class.
Since compatible changes involve the addition of new fields or objects, the Java serialization mechanism initializes these additional fields with the default value for the corresponding Java types. In addition, a developer can specify initial values for these fields during deserialization. In the case of evolving a serializable class with incompatible changes, typically, the developer has no quick and easy way to "fix" the incompatible serialized objects.
Mitigation approaches when making incompatible changes
When incompatible changes are made to a serializable class, this evolved class is no longer compatible with any objects serialized by the prior release's class. Hence, a new value must be assigned to this new release's suid
In the stored-and-retrieved scenario, all serialized objects stored in a filesystem or database must be migrated to a format compatible with the new release. Migration effort involves retrieving these stored objects using the serializable class's prior release. Remove the fields no longer supported or recast their values to the Java types expected in the new serializable class. Finally, serialize these objects using the evolved class. This generates an suid
in the serialized objects that is compatible with the newly released serializable class. This multistep migration effort aims to correct the stored serialized objects to the format expected by the evolved serializable class. As can be expected, this migration is unidirectional, supporting only forward compatibility, not backward compatibility.
In the mixed-version scenario for which the serialized object exchanged between applications has to be corrected dynamically, no easy mitigation solution is available, and its discussion reaches beyond this article's scope. Any successful mitigation effort will involve catching and using the InvalidClassException
to load a fix that will read the byte stream off the serialized object and dynamically reconstruct an object compatible with the right version.
Design considerations for using Java serialization
While the Serialization
interface is easy to use, it is not malleable to structural changes that result in incompatible changes. To design Serializable
for ease of use, the serialized object's datastructure must be opaque and not directly accessible to the developer. When an incompatible change is made to a serializable class, release compatibility is difficult to maintain.
Besides the Serializable
interface, at least three alternate approaches can serialize Java objects:
- For object serialization, instead of implementing the
interface, a developer can implement theExternalizable
interface, which extendsSerializable
. By implementingExternalizable
, a developer is responsible for implementing thewriteExternal()
methods. As a result, a developer has sole control over reading and writing the serialized objects. For a detailed description of this technique, see theExternalizable
interface's details in the Java Serialization Specification. - XML serialization is an often-used approach for data interchange. This approach lags runtime performance when compared with Java serialization, both in terms of the size of the object and the processing time. With a speedier XML parser, the performance gap with respect to the processing time narrows. Nonetheless, XML serialization provides a more malleable solution when faced with changes in the serializable object.
- Finally, consider a "roll-your-own" serialization approach. You can write an object's content directly via either the
or theDataOutputStream
. While this approach is more involved in its initial implementation, it offers the greatest flexibility and extensibility. In addition, this approach provides a performance advantage over Java serialization.
Since mitigating incompatible changes to an object serialized via the Serializable
interface proves difficult, designing a serializable class must be deliberate. Before implementing a class using Java serialization, consider the following characteristics of the class:
- Stability: How likely is this class to be substantially changed over the next couple of releases? A class at an early stage of maturity will more likely undergo major and incompatible changes.
- Visibility: Will this class be used internally by the implementer or within the same development team where the implementer has more control over the change process? Or will it be published externally for general customer use, where the implementer is less free to mitigate the impact of change?
- Usage pattern: Will this class be used in a store-and-retrieve or a mixed-version scenario? Or will it be used only in a transient real-time scenario, sending a Java object from one server instance to another for real-time usage? Finally, will this class be used in a mixed-version environment, where different versions of this class may be deployed while needing to interoperate?
If a Java class is in its early stage of maturity and will be involved in mixed-release usages, this class is not likely to be a good candidate for implementing the Serialization
The Java Serialization
interface lets a developer write a runtime object into a byte stream and conversely reconstitute a runtime object by reading the data back from a byte stream object. However, this ease of use comes with a price.
Without observing the version control feature provided by the Java Serialization
interface, inadvertent changes to a serializable class can break release compatibility. Furthermore, the implementation of Serialization
results in a design that is brittle to change. This article offers best practices and design considerations for safeguarding against breaking release compatibility and interoperability when implementing a serializable class.

What other projects are being done in Python?
Which unfortunately has nothing to do with the ideas behind Python.
It tends to be much more than "strongly-typed effective scripting language" and if there was some big corporation promoting it as development platform(not even providing support, the guys from the team are doing really good job) , you can bet that Java would had one more serious competitor to worry about...
That's funny. I switched from Perl to Python several years ago and one of the things that I like best about Python is the documentation. Perl's Camel book made a pretty fair reference, but I didn't really like busting out a hard-copy book every time I wanted to look something up. The electronic Perl documentation was pretty nice, but it wasn't quite as comprehensive as the Camel book, and the POD format simply can't compete with Python's documentation. The PDF and HTML formats are nice, but I really like the fact that the Python documentation is available in info format for easy reading in Emacs (complete with a comprehensive index). The indexes in Python's electronic documentation really make a heck of a difference once you start using them. Perl's pile o' man pages simply can't touch Python in this regard (IMHO).
Perl's TIMTOWTDI style means that every time you edit someone else's Perl code you will encounter four or five new Perlisms that you have never seen and that require the Camel book for deciphering. When I was hacking Perl, that meant carring around the Camel book in my laptop bag "just in case." With Python that's no longer a problem.
My guess is that you have gotten use to the structure of Perl's documentation. You know where to find Perl information, and are simply frustrated by the fact that Python requires that you start from scratch with a new set of documentation.
On the other hand, it is possible that we simply have different documentation requirements. What precisely is the problem? "They suck," is not particularly descriptive.
I read somewhere in usenet that python is relatively slow, even for interpreted language, and my (extremely limited) experience is the same. A while ago, I did a simple text converter in python as an exercise. Very basic stuff, read from file, check the value of each symbol, change with another value if necessary, write into another file. It was quite slow on texts of moderate size. I mean, if it were in C, the delay would not be noticeable.
However, if google uses it, then python has "industrial strength" and should perform well. I wonder...
Whenever a system becomes completely defined, some damn fool discovers something which either abolishes the system or expands it beyond recognition.


text: peacelounge recordings | schwarzburgstr. 69 | 60318 frankfurt/m. firstname.lastname@example.com | ph: +49 69 24 45 00 21 | fax: 24 45 00 20 artist: various album: 5.10.15 – 5 years of peacelounge recordings 10 artists | 15 tracks label: peacelounge recordings release: January 2007 EAN: 4260044590462 peal 015 | LC 11784 15 tracks by 10 artists to celebrate 5 years of peacelounge... It could have been a label review, but we decided to do something completely different. After all, the "history" of a record label is best understood through its releases. The path of peacelounge recordings´ journey started in northwest Germany and led from Berlin to Cape Town, from Rio De Janiero to Mumbai and still continues floating towards new destinations… In other words, 5.10.15 should to be seen as a preview of coming attractions – a collection from the present and future of our musical cosmos. It all began in the fall of 2001 under the headline "label for relaxed electronics" – but we have been merrily digressing from our original path ever since. Names like Weathertunes, Jasmon, Katia B, Thomas Kessler and DAO as well as our compilations Cape Town 2 AM and popdeurope have been shaping the label profile so far. But "New acquisitions" like Mind Soup, Flamingo Star, Under Pressure, Intakt, Green Empathy and Sidharth Sharmaa will continue to please and surprise, to entertain and educate our ears in the coming years. Enjoy! Stefan Krachten / Nicolle Meyer Sunny Day (tk liquid mix) It would be hard for us to imagine a better intro for this album than "Sunny Day". Composed by Stefan Krachten (Trance Groove, Unknown Cases, Fred Banana Combo) and his partner Nicolle Meyer (vocals), the track sounds almost celestial and seems to be brimming with positive energy – a good part of this may well be owed to the excellent production skills of electro-jazz magician Thomas Kessler… Under Pressure Near The Ocean (with Katia B) & Bacaro "Near The Ocean" is the next stroke of luck and not least a product of modern communication: Stephan Meyer and Dirk Hinze of Under Pressure had fallen in love with the voice of Katia B, and Katia liked their groove. Thus Hannover, Germany hooked up with Rio De Janeiro via Internet, and this is the result: a cool, yet bittersweet track which makes us curious for Katia's next album (May 2007). Under Pressure, too, are working on a full-lenghth, eclectic album – whenever they are not indulging in their new hobby which is"Bollywood Remixes". Watch this space… Intakt Sud de la France & Sweet Drop A friendly radio journalist brought Mike Hess to our attention, a guy who had produced a fantastic album under the name Intakt (which – unfortunately – had been largely ignored by the public). We immediately signed this exceptional artist who can to call up and re-invent any musical genre with each new track. Mike combines opulent melodies with powerful, driving grooves and complex arrangements. From lofty, breezing House ("Sud de la France") to celestial downtempo tunes – like the yet unreleased "Sweet drop" (15) – his musical bandwith is astounding, as you will hear on his second album, due out in 2007. Sidharth Sharmaa Saffron Sky & I See Venus Sidharth Sharmaa is a young musician and producer from Mumbai, who was introduced to us by NT Edit (see "to Deli - Bollywood To Bhangra & Beyond", loc001). Sidharth combines House and Techno-Grooves with distinct Indian flavours. Best example for this is "Saffron Sky" with its "Bollywoood" string sounds. But his musical ambitions are truly global, as you can hear on "I See Venus" - a crisp House track that will work its magic on dancefloors all over the world: from New York to Berlin, from Cape Town to Tokyo. Mind Soup Auburn & Sunday's Best Mind Soup hail from Cincinnati, Ohio – and obviously their approach to the "music business" is very laid-back and open-minded: Chris, BJ and Max had already been cooking their delicious musical stew quite successfully on iTunes USA, until they approached us via an Australian connection. After listening to their first mini album – which contains the epic midtempo Electro-Lounge track "Auburn" – we were sure that we would want to sign them. On "Sunday' s Best", Mind Soup display a musical kinship with artists as different as Board Of Canada, Pink Floyd and Tangerine Dream as well as some familiar (and geographically closer) traces of Detroit Techno. Thomas Kessler Home (4x4 Mix) Düsseldorf-based sound architect Thomas Kessler (and his fellow Stefan Krachten (1)) have been part of the electronic music scene in Germany for 'ages'. Within different setups, Kessler has left his tracks and traces between Jazz, Trip Hop and Worldbeat for almost 20 years. We haven´t heard and seen him for quite a while – but every gem escaping the security of his state of the art p.fort studio is high-quality stuff: "Home" is a composition from his still current album egolution (2006). Kessler remixed the track himself to add a previously unknown facet to his work, namely a very cool, yet driving "4x4 mix" with a chill-house vibe… Green Empathy Airport Although he is one of the youngest artists on peacelounge, Daniel Voss was (and is) part of the 'oldest' act ever signed to this label: Weathertunes. For his solo project, Green Empathy, Daniel has created a number of wonderful tracks in various genres – from Downtempo to Drum & Bass, campfire songs to slightly avantgarde pieces. His remix of Jasmon's epic world music hit "Domdanana" even made it on national television in the US, and several contributions to compilations later, he will easily make a name with his multilayered album "Souvenir" (Mid 2007). Flamingo Star What A Great Day & Porque Thanks again to Foh of Mo' Horizons that he nudged his buddy Matthias "Hit" Becker aka Flamingo Star to send us his excellent demo. Matthias is an eminent multi-talent playing Latin & Lounge just as well as Funk & Soul with a distinctive Retro-Flair (the bandname already seems to hints at 'camp' 60's and 70's aesthetics). More than anything else, however, Flamingo Star is characterized by a smooth, yet firm grip on the melodies & rhythms of today and the near future. Prepare to be impressed by "Wouldn' t Wait No Longer"in the spring of 2007 on peacelounge… Dao Quantalux Soon after having released their long expected debut album Soham (peal013), the German-Indian project DAO is already working on new songs: Nani´s and Chinmayo´s first song of the future album is about "out of body experiences", but – as always – their music is very much rooted in the here and now of life between two cultures and an enormous wealth of musical vision. Anyway, "Quantalux" is so perfect in itself, we simply had to include it on our anniversary compilation. Weathertunes Local Bridge The only track from the early days of peacelounge recordings, "local bridge" stands for the initial spark which fired up the label. Weathertunes' debut Characters was the first album released on peacelounge, and now, five years later, we are releasing the album again, in a completely remastered version – including a new bonus track. The Track has lost none of its humming intensity – a "bridge" between Breakbeats and Downtempo, a charming contradiction, which remains exciting and uncommonly well listenable… 5.10.15 will be released in January 2007 in Germany and several European countries and is available for licensing in some territories.

The best way to freshen up your space is with a new hue. But that doesn't mean you have to go through the hassle of painting. Sometimes less is more. And introducing a new accent color may be all you need to do. It's easier and less expensive than paining an entire room. Not only that, but using an accent gives you the ability to safely add a more daring color that you would not want painted on the walls. Or it just gives you the chance to try a new color that you haven't used before.
Green is one of my favorite colors to use as an accent. Not the deep emeralds or pine greens. I like the slightly lighter, warmer greens. Think of how the leaves look in early spring. They haven't fully developed so their color is lighter and not as pronounced as late-summer leaves. Know what I mean? This green can easily transform into a neutral, so it looks great with a variety of other background colors, such as a deep gray (shown above in my dining room). Take a look at these other examples:
It's very easy to add in green (or any other accent color for that matter) with throw pillows, chic lamps or side chairs:
Or create drama with long, luxurious curtains.
And don't overlook the bathroom. There is no shortage of pretty wallpapers and these days, many styles are removable. Or you can just include a few accessories for around the sink.
Green represents nature, newness and wealth. Who wouldn't want to be surrounded with that?

One of the local companies have an ad on TV, saying they will install "Dimensional shingles", for a fee.
What are "dimensional shingles"? Is the wording just something to impress the gullible public, or are they real? Or, just another name for regular shingles? RJ
We call them "architectural shingles" by me. There is a bit more to them than regular 3 tab's to give them more of a 3d (3 dimensional:) look. If you saw them side to side, you would see the differences for sure.

ST. PAUL -- Roughly 270 residents the city of Bemidji had for years hoped would be part of the city through annexation are now going back to the control of Bemidji Township. Chief Administrative Law Judge Tammy L. Pust of the Minnesota Office of Administrative hearings signed an order dated Jan. 30 that the parcels back to Bemidji Township. The detachment is laid out in a settlement agreement between the city and the township from 2013. In order to be eligible for detachment, parcels had to lack access to city and water lines and be agreed upon by the township and the city.
ST. PAUL -- Regular citizens transformed Wednesday into political champions of Bemidji during the 2015 Bemidji Day at the Capitol. The Bemidji Area Chamber of Commerce organized the 10th annual trip, where civic leaders and local residents traveled by bus to St. Paul to meet with Gov.
BEMIDJI -- Although the Minnesota Capitol is covered in scaffolding and 'closed' signs, the Bemidji Area Chamber of Commerce will continue its annual Bemidji Day at the Capitol tradition Wednesday...
BEMIDJI -- The Bemidji Radioshack is on a company list of potential locations to be closed following the company's filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy Thursday. Reuters reported Thursday that RadioShack plans to sell between 1,500 and 2,400 of its 4,100 stores to a hedge fund and also could close as many as 2,100 others with the help of a liquidation firm. A call to the Bemidji RadioShack was referred to the company's media relations division.
BEMIDJI -- After going dark last month amid staffing issues and financial difficulty, Upstream TV has been back on the airwaves since Jan. 28, with new shows and fervent public support. "Support has been outstanding, people were really worried when they saw us off the air and have expressed their thanks upon our return," Upstream board member Roy C. Booth said Friday.
BEMIDJI -- The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources on Thursday announced it had temporarily ordered a halt to a massive conversion of thousands of acres of Minnesota pine forest into farmland out of concern for the state's water supply and forest ecosystem. North Dakota-based potato grower R.D. Offutt Co. already has bought or could buy some 27,000 acres of Potlach Corp.
BEMIDJI -- The student government at Bemidji State University on Wednesday unanimously passed a bill to ban the sale of plastic water bottles. The BSU Student Senate voted to become the first college in the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities (MnSCU) system to ban the sale of bottled water on campus. Two non- MnSCU campuses in Minnesota -- Macalester and the College of Saint Benedict -- have already done so. Sens.
BEMIDJI -- The team from WCCO-TV news plans to become acquainted with the home of Paul Bunyan this week, shooting video and broadcasting live from Bemidji, including shows out on the ice. The visit is WCCO's third "Goin' To The (Frozen) Lake" program, a winter-themed version of their recurring summer segment, "Goin' To The Lake." WCCO anchor Frank Vascellaro said he's never been to Bemidji before, but he was excited to explore the quintessentially Minnesotan city. "How can you live in Minnesota and not go to Bemidji, right?," he said.
BEMIDJI -- A review of a new county Social Services employee position morphed into a broader talk on the issue of court-ordered child placement at Red Lake on Tuesday during a Beltrami County Board of Commissioners work session. Social Services Division Director Jeff Lind and Finance Director Janelle Vance were supposed to give a report on the new Case Aid position filled by Debbie Poxleitner in Red Lake in July.
BEMIDJI -- The Bemidji City Council on Monday directed city staff to halt work on switching the mandatory bar closing time from 2 a.m. to 1 a.m. The Council told City Attorney Al Felix to set aside the task of working on a draft ordinance switching the times. Felix said he had received a large amount of negative feedback on the proposed ordinance change. "I too can tell you from a staff perspective, at least in my experience...

First look: Apple's all-new Maps in iOS 6
The release of iOS 6 later this year will mark a major shift for Apple away from Google Maps to its own in-house mapping solution, complete with 3D recreations of cities, turn-by-turn directions and crowd-sourced traffic data.Developers can get a first taste of the new Maps application in iOS 6 with the beta issued by Apple on Monday following the Worldwide Developers Conference keynote presentation.
The new 3D mapping technology found in the updated Maps application is not yet active in all cities. However, it can be tested with Cupertino, Calif., which is where Apple's corporate headquarters is located.
Turn-by-turn navigation with the new iOS 6 Maps application features a user interface that mimics freeway road signs, telling users where to turn. Directions can also be prompted using Siri.
Copyright data found in iOS 6 reveals that Apple has partnered with prominent GPS maker TomTom for its turn-by-turn directions in the new Maps application.
Apple's new Maps also offers integration with Yelp, which provides user-submitted reviews for virtually all stores, restaurants and other businesses in the U.S.

The "How will you contribute" essay, or the "what will you do for us?"
I found this to be quite tough. Primarily because I had little self-confidence in what I could do but also because anything I could think of didn't seem good enough. I wasn't planning on starting a new club, directing curriculum, winning national case competitions, or even making lots of money as an alum and donating swathes of it. However, I honestly don't know what the winning formula is for this question.So I'll tell you what I said in my essay. I'll also provide some observations on the involvement of the current class and what may help to mention. HUGE caveat here - like I said, I don't know the winning formula.
What worked for me
I said that I am an active and engaged student who has been known to stimulate debate in class. This is what I did in my undergraduate degree - so I was a teacher's dream student. I also mentioned the desire to plan a trek to Australia.
General Observations
Our year hasn't been very active or engaged in the school in general. While the second years lament over the apathy of the first years, Student Services have been quoted saying that involvement is cyclical - one year is not so engaged, but the next year will be. The apathy of our classmates is pretty easy to see when it came to the GBA elections - there were 6 candidates for president last year and only 2 this year, for example. I can't speak for the clubs, but from those that I'm in, there is also just a smattering of interest in leadership positions.
A second observation, one that I will detail a fair bit later, is that some people tend to form friendship groups only with those that are like them. To put it in a less gentle fashion, all the black people have formed tight knit groups, all the Asian people have formed tight knit groups, and all the Indians have formed tight knit groups. While there is a general niceness to others, these particular people just band too tightly and the benefits of knowing and being friends with other people are lost.
I'm going to aim this tip directly at Indian applicants then: if you are from India (i.e. not an American with Indian parents), you have the toughest job of all. I'm estimating about a third of our class are Indian or come from Indian heritage. Many with computer science or engineering backgrounds. Many want to do consulting or work as a product manager in a high tech firm. The vast majority of them band together in those tight knit groups. I can't say if it's indicative of our class or across all classes, but in some ways it's very exclusionary. It's also very disappointing for people like me who want to take advantage of the benefits of diversity and interact on a deeper level with these people. So I would say my biggest tip would be to tout how inclusionary you are. How you do that, I don't know, it's up to you. I strongly recommend mentioning something that makes you different - like being on the social committee of the GBA, or getting involved in Tepper Cares, our philanthropy branch, or even just saying that you will join social or general interest clubs (i.e. not the B&T club or SABA) and actively participate in order to learn another person's culture or lifestyle. The Indian stereotype is the Engineer interested in consulting or high tech and plays cricket. And please please PLEASE don't just say that you'll do this stuff, make sure that you do. Or else otherwise the greatest benefits of going to an American university is lost.
Finally, now that I'm doing a lot of interview preparation, think of it like a job interview - why would a company hire you if you're just going to do the same thing as the job requires? Don't you think you would make a better candidate if you did something above and beyond the requirements, specifically, helping make the company better? The university is like that too. They don't want people who will just come in for school and then leave. They want people who will make the school a better place.
I'm a 2013 MBA student studying at the Tepper School of Business at Carnegie Mellon - and these are my experiences.

What else are you going to do with it, though? 99% of us harbor no illusions of ever turning our brewing into a profit-making venture, and even if we did - it takes a lot more than one recipe to be successful. EDIT: In fact, I would posit that the specific beer recipe is probably the LEAST important element in running a successful brewpup, or microbrewery, or any other beer-related venture. With enough time and experimentation, any of us could develop many kick-ass recipes; the keys are distribution and marketing.
Hey, if any one wants to give me $5k for a recipe of mine they can have it and all my brew gear AND I'll brew them a batch. Any offers?
Yup, easy to say that now, win the contest, and then share your feelings after they made 5 million on your reciepe. The time to bargin is before you sign on the dotted line.
It's their contest!!!! Of course they'd own the rights to the recipe!!! If you are simply a contest participant, you have no upper hand to make any demands...you are simply 4 bottles among thousands. If I had a functioning micro that was about to take the world by storm with a particular recipe, then I wouldn't enter. But selling a recipe for $5000 in a spare-change basement operation/hobby? NO BRAINER!!!!! I'm with Orfy..... (Oh an welcome also.....got any good recipes to share? )
I don't know of any contest that requires you to give up the rights to the design, reciepe, or content of an item entered.....other than this one. Remember the space vechile design contest......the winner did not give up their design as a part of participating in the contest. I'm quite sure that when one realizes what they have lost as a result of entering a contest and winning, there will be some internal whining.....sorry, I feel Sam Adams is screwing every winner by not including some profit sharing as part of this contest. But that's just my HO .
what about American Idol? the winner is Simon's bitch for years. <exposed!>
Maybe he's a Harpoon guy?

Les Moonves, Chief Executive Officer, President and Director of CBS Corporation (NYSE:CBS) said on CNBC in February 2015 that CBS was "very happy being alone," and the Chief Executive Officer doubled down on that talk at the Morgan Stanley Technology, Media and Telecom conference. Moonves says his Chief Operating Officer tells him that CBS will be a $100 stock in four years, so buyers or merger partners like Time Warner Inc. (NYSE:TWX) or Viacom, Inc. (NasdaqGS:VIAB) would have to pay "a very high price." CBS faces new negotiations with DIRECTV (NasdaqGS:DTV) and Cablevision Systems Corporation (NYSE:CVC) at the end of 2015.
CBS Corporation reported unaudited consolidated earnings results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2014. For the quarter, the company reported revenues $3,681 million compared to $3,571 million a year ago. Operating income was $707 million compared to $715 million a year ago. Earnings from continuing operations before income taxes were $603 million compared to $632 million a year ago. Net earnings from continuing operations were $402 million or $0.77 diluted per share compared to $422 million or $0.69 diluted per share a year ago. Net earnings were $413 million or $0.79 diluted per share compared to $470 million or $0.76 diluted per share a year ago. Free cash flow was $880 million compared to $380 million a year ago. Adjusted OIBDA was $778 million compared to $808 million a year ago. Total OIBDA was $778 million compared to $788 million a year ago. Free cash flow came in at $382 million against $199 million a year ago. Adjusted operating income was $707 million compared to $735 million a year ago. For the year, the company reported revenues $13,806 million compared to $14,005 million a year ago. Operating income was $2,896 million compared to $3,025 million a year ago. Earnings from continuing operations before income taxes were $2,164 million compared to $2,665 million a year ago. Net earnings from continuing operations were $1,354 million or $2.41 diluted per share compared to $1,738 million or $2.79 diluted per share a year ago. Net earnings were $2,959 million or $5.27 diluted per share compared to $1,879 million or $3.01 diluted per share a year ago. Net cash flow provided by operating activities was $1,275 million compared to $1,873 million a year ago. Capital expenditures were $206 million compared to $212 million a year ago. Free cash flow was $1,004 million compared to $1,567 million a year ago. Adjusted OIBDA was $3,255 million compared to $3,335 million a year ago. Total OIBDA was $3,177 million compared to $3,315 million a year ago. Adjusted net earnings from continuing operations were $1.66 billion in 2014 compared with $1.75 billion in 2013, principally because of lower adjusted OIBDA. Adjusted net earnings from continuing operations per diluted share were $2.96 in 2014, up 6% from $2.80 in 2013. The increase was driven by lower weighted average shares outstanding from the split-off of Outdoor Americas as well as the Company's ongoing share repurchase program. Adjusted operating income was $2,974 million compared to $3,045 million a year ago.
CBS Corporation (NYSE:CBS) denies the merger with Viacom, Inc. (NasdaqGS:VIAB). Leslie Moonves President and Chief Executive Officer of CBS, states, "We don't need any partners."

I have to upload some videos... But biggie, your going to hate me man.... I use this swash leveler.. It's only $6+ shipping and you need some washers on top of the swash, under the tool, to get the tool above the swash links. But it works and is cheap. It only needs about a 2mm lift or so. http://helidirect.com/deluxe-swashpl...rt-p-10283.hdx |

At liftoff the heli was tilting to the left for some reason. Then would balance out and work fine. Very weird. the next flight after this the heli tried to tip right over to the left. Almost crashed. Got a blade strike on the foam which was enough to unbalance my blades slightly, some how. Very strange. It's all fixed now and i'm hoping the winds will die today a little bit... Not likely, according to the news. The X5 just doesn't even notice there is wind most of the time. Till it gusts in over 25 mph. Then i get a a lot of up and down drafting.

Nice flying IH, I looked at some of your 4F200 from the other day too. Enough to make me give up. No, but I have been frustrated. We've been having such crappy weather up here that I can't even fly any more. There's been way too much snow, wind, and cold. Plus I crashed my D03 and just got through fixing it up.... (kind of) I feel like I'm making no progress in precision flying. I've never been so enamored with something that I'm so bad at. Kind of discouraging sometimes.. But anyway, just popping in to say hello,,, (not to complain! ) I'm compelled by unseen forces to pursue this thing til I can fly okay. Or at least do a decent figure 8!
You guys have a good night. I'll go back to my buddy Phoenix for now.... |

In my last few V450 videos, the heli was tipping to the left pretty hard. Some times harder than others. The whole heli felt less stable and something was definitely wrong. I thought it was my servos, so i took the heli home and opened up each servo one by one. I checked all the gears and shafts for damage and then i had to try to fix the potentiometer. Which was the cause of the servo "jitter". Now all of my cyclic servos move smooth again with no jitter. But the heli still tipped hard left right after take off when i test flew after work. I came home and found that other people have had this issue with BeastX gyros before. In my setup from the last scrape from the tipping. I ran the heli with no blades to check for vibes. The heli is running very true and there is not much abnormal resonance. I found one other person with the same issue as i do. No crash, just all of a sudden the heli is trying to tip left and it got worse and worse. He fixed his by removing the thick foam mounting pad and replacing it. Someone else i found said they switched to the thin 3M pad and have not looked back. So i went ahead and used some regular 3M mounting tape. I took off in my driveway and the heli felt really stable. No tipping. Buit the last time, when i fixed the servos, the heli also test hovered @ home fine. But at the field it wanted to tip left. Tomorrow i will see before or after work how the new mounting tape works out. Kind of weird the mounting pad would just one day be the cause. I'm skeptical, but hopeful.

Yesterday night I have set up the beastx using your precius info after some normal difficult... first time with the bestx, I think the setting are now correct. I had to change few parameter... I don't exaxtly know why as we use the same savox 257 on cyclic.... On point M swahplate sensor....I had to use reverse reverse e not normal normal.... On the tail instead my hitec servo need all different setting... but that was sure Btw now I need only to controll again the last point the piroette ....I don't know if I set up correct... I just saw a youtube video and uderstand correct what should I do And about the foam pad... I have used myself the thick foam....I have not tested the heli till now only little hover... so I can tell you if any problem... I think I will test saturday Btw I can confirm you that on lots trex 450 people are moving from thick foam to the thin 3m pad and solve all the problem.... I don't know exactly why..... let me know Thanks again for the help in set up |
Feb 13, 2013, 09:51 AM | ||||
The last step in setup for pirouette is pretty simple. You just hold the rotor and spin the tail of the heli. If the swash stays pointed the same direction around the circle with the tail. The setting is correct. If the swash moves around in all different directions, it is incorrect. Ron Lund does a great job of explaining and showing in his video what it should look like. Fast forward to 1:30 for the piro setup.
I don't know the reason for my tipping to the left. But i have also found a few others switching to the thin pad too. The last time i tested my heli it hovered okay in my driveway. But at the field it was still tipping. I am leaving for work in a minute and will stop on my way to give it a test now with the thin mounting pads. The strange part is that the heli flew okay till now using the thick pad. The only thing anyone or myself can come up with is that the materials used in the thick foam pad break down and allow vibes to come though. If the foam is allowing the BeastX to vibe around move over time. This would make sense, i suppose. Some people have blamed the weather and things. I don't know. But if you can keep the vibes out of your heli. The thin pads should be fine. When i fist did my original install. I didn't notice it at first. But my tail blades were slightly unbalanced, which sent the beastX into a wobble. It's been fine since fixing the tail blades and test hover with the thin pad did not give me any wobbles like before. |
