When someone tells me that they haven't seen The Breakfast Club
John Bender explains tumblr
-Sincerely Yours, The Breakfast Club.
Couldn't stop laughing
Favorite everything » The Breakfast Club
↳ Well I'm free the Saturday after that. Beyond that, I'm going to have to check my calendar.
The basket case and the criminal
We're all pretty bizarre. Some of us are just better at hiding it, that's all.
Bender: It was an accident.
Claire: You're an asshole.
Bender: Sue me.
Happy 30th Breakfast Club!

Problem: we need to install SQL 2008 R2 Express with Management tools on about 24 physical machines of various OS flavors.
Take the 2-minute tour

migrated from stackoverflow.com Oct 8 '10 at 16:28This question came from our site for professional and enthusiast programmers. |
How to: Install SQL Server 2008 R2 from the Command Prompt There's a Microsoft article on how to write a script to run an unattended SQL installation. It's not too difficult but it might take you a little while to set it up for the first time if you've never done it that way before. With 24 machines you could also just do it manually without too much trouble. If you have a staging area where you could set up multiple machines at a time it shouldn't take more than a few hours. |

2003 Toyota Camry LE 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 4A)
I loved this car while it was running. It handled well, it was a smooth and comfortable ride, it was easy to maintain. It was wonderful. *However*, I knew when I bought this car that it had known issues with stripping head bolts. I wish I had walked away. The car lasted 180k miles before the head bolts ended up stripping and the head gasket blew. Now that those issues have been fixed, it has a massive oil leak that hasn't been found yet. It's been a nightmare. I don't know if the stripping is inevitable or not, but I've heard of enough incidents of this to strongly recommend you look at a 2007 or newer model instead of this one. Buy at your own risk!

2003 Toyota Camry SE 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 4A)
I had a 2003 Camry that my mother bought brand new. I'm upset, I totalled the car on ice. It had 95,000 miles on it. I got it with 30,000 miles on it. I never fixed a thing. I so hoped to take it to 200,000 miles.

2003 Toyota Camry LE 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 4A)
I have owned this car since 2003 when it was bought brand new. I am 29 now and the car now has a bit over 126,000 miles. I have not experienced the dreaded stripping head bolts yet, and hope I never have to experience it. Ideally, I would love to use this car until 300,000 miles.
I bought the car because of Toyota's reputation on reliability. I have added lots of mods on this LE, Homelink, HID projector headlamps from a Lexus, Wood grain, Fog Lights from the XLE model, TRD rear sway bar, just to make this car a bit fun to drive. I love it thus far, no real problems yet and hopefully forever.

2003 Toyota Camry LE 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 4A)
bought the car from a dealer. car needed the starter and fan system replaced 2 days after. car runs really hot. oil is seeping out of the engine. car has 103,000 miles on it for a Toyota this shouldn't be much. there is a known issue with camrys from 2002-2006 with the headbolts stripping off the engine block causing the engine to overheat and then blow at any givin time.and there is no support from toyota they could car less selling the car on name alone instead of quality. if i could go back in time i would tell the dealer to keep it and got into something else. purchased it for Toyota name and quality and got the worst car experience ive ever havve to deal with do not buy this car

2003 Toyota Camry LE V6 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 4A)
My car just surpassed 150,000 miles today. It has been an extremely dependable, reliable, inexpensive maintenance, and overall a great car for its value. Just do the regular maintenance and Toyota never disappoints you. I commute nearly 100 miles a day, but even though my car is nearly 11 years old, it gives me full confidence to start my day. Power is decent although there is a power lag, but you can't expect more since it is not meant to be a sporty car.

2003 Toyota Camry LE 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 4A)
Our 2003 Camry, that we purchased new, has been a great car.
It only has 20,000 miles on it but we have not had a single issue with it.
It still drives and handles like brand new.
I replaced the tires just because they were 9 years old.
The only other part that we replaced is the battery in 2008.
I like the Camry so much that I just purchased a new Toyota Tacoma.

We purchased a used 2003 toyota camry 16 months ago and have repeat problems with the engine/head bolts stripping out of the engine block.
This is a know issue related to NHTSA Item Number : 10037592, Summary :
TOYOTA: THERE MAY BE DAMAGED CYLINDER HEAD BOLTS THREADS. *RM, and specifically with engine 2AZ-FE. Dialership and Toyota executive level have not done anything to help.
I will not buy another toyota.

2003 Toyota Camry LE 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 4A)
No my Camry is not exciting to drive or very fast. It is however VERY reliable. I have owned 4 Camrys and am able to put 200,000 on each one with no major problems. My present Camry I bought used with 80,000 miles I now have 203,000 miles and only replaced the gas cap!!! Do not be tempted to the dark side (Ford, Dodge or Chevy) Toyota has best build quality. The 2003 model gets an honest 33 miles per gallon. Mixed driving (500 miles to a tank).

2003 Toyota Camry LE V6 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 4A)
bought with 100,000 miles, very clean car, few months later front rotors went bad, was told this was last time they could be turned, few months later, a top motor mount, now the transmossion mount, $ 114 just for the part , backs struts are having thumping noise
issues going over bumps very slowly, rack and pinion boot is shredded for some reason, headliner is starting to come loose in the back, the car has been well taken care of before and during the year and half I have owned it. Interior is great, fantastic console, very comfortable, mine has 8 airbags, so i have the extra safety feeling on the road, not sure if i should keep fixing things or trade it off? fun to drive, great on gas

2003 Toyota Camry LE V6 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 4A)
I was recently in an accident on the hwy where I hit another car broadside.
This car did everything it was designed to do.
It crumpled in the front end, the hood buckled up and the engine did not come in on me.
All four doors opened (I wish I could show you pictures), and let both my passenger and I out.
I could kiss the man who sold me this car!
I owned this car for three wonderful years and did ZERO REPAIRS.
It had 150k and drove like it was new.
Quiet, smooth, strong, reliable and SAFE!!
Buy this car with confidence.

Unfortunately Meopta Meostar R1 1-4x22 Riflescope with K-Dot Illuminated Reticle 706580 is no longer carried by OpticsPlanet.
Meopta Meostar R1 1-4x22 Riflescope with K-Dot Illuminated Reticle is designed by Meopta for hunting under difficult, low-light daylight conditions (at maximum intensity, the dot illumination is visible in sunny weather with snow cover). With magnification set on 1 power and the reticle illuminated, the riflescope may be used as a short range, close in -sighting device, by allowing the user to keep both eyes open. This Meopta rifle scope allows a clear, substantially improved view of what is happening in the surrounding field of view. With the knob on the left side of elevation turret, the intensity level of rifle scope can be changed from 1-7, (with 7 being the brightest) in addition to 7 different intensity levels we have also provided an off position (signified by a dot) between each level. This allows the illumination to be switched on and off and returned to original level with a minimum effort. The service life of the original CR 2354 battery is roughly 80 continuous hours. A more readily available CR 2032 battery may also be used however the service life is only about 60 continuous hours. The Meostar R1 RD 7x56 and Meostar R1 3-12x56 models are designed for hunting under extreme low light conditions at early dawn or late dusk.
Our company carry Meopta rifle scope accessories, such as Meopta Replacement Battery CR2354.

CPI rises 3.39% in January
The cost of living rose again in January, with the consumer price index (CPI) up 3.39% over January 2012 to stand at 104.44, permanent secretary for commerce Watcharee Wimuktayon said on Friday.
- Published: 1/02/2013 at 11:45 AM
- Newspaper section: breakingnews
The CPI figure rose 0.16% from December 2012 but it was lower than the 3.5% previously forcast by analysts, she said.
Core CPI, which excludes food and energy, for the month stood at 102.79, up 1.59% on January 2012, and an increase of 0.08% on December 2012.
The price index for food and beverages for January was up 4.30% on the same month last year and an increase of 0.08% on December 2012, to stand at 106.59.
The non-food and beverage index stood at 103.05, up 2.78% on the same month last year and up 0.20% on December 2012.
Mrs Watcharee projected that inflation in 2013 would be in the range of 2.8% to 3.5%.
The projection was based on the hypothesis that the price of Dubai crude oil would be US$100-120 per barrel, and the exchange rate 28.5-32.5 baht to the US dollar, she added.

take me back LyricsArtist: AtarisAlbum: Anywhere But Here I guess it's better off that way. There's really not much left to say. I called you on the phone, another guy said that you weren't at home, but, I don't care I'll call you again anyway. Baby I'd give you the world... please forget about those fifteen other girls. I don't care what they say... I didn't mean to stand you up on our wedding day. I'm sorry that I gave you that infection, and said we had sex on the Love Connection. Can I ever make it up to you? I'm sorry that I made you mad, the things I did just didn't seem that bad... Except for maybe when I blew up your car. Oh baby what can I do??? Every girl I'm with makes me think of you. I call your name in my sleep. Too bad you think that I'm a creep. Please take me back... (x5)

Much has been written about the storied New Hollywood of the 1970s, but while Martin Scorsese, Steven Spielberg, and Francis Ford Coppola were making their first classic movies, a parallel universe of directors gave birth to the modern horror film - aggressive, raw, and utterly original. Based on unprecedented access to the genre's major players, New York Times critic Jason Zinoman's Shock Value delivers the first definitive account of horror's golden age.
By the late 1960s, horror was stuck in the past, confined mostly to drive-in theaters and exploitation houses and shunned by critics. Shock Value tells the unlikely story of how the much-disparaged horror film became an ambitious art form while also conquering the multiplex. Directors such as Wes Craven, Roman Polanski, John Carpenter, and Brian De Palma - counterculture types operating largely outside Hollywood - revolutionized the genre, exploding taboos and bringing a gritty aesthetic, confrontational style, and political edge to horror.
Zinoman recounts how these directors produced such classics as Rosemary's Baby, Carrie, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Halloween, creating a template for horror that has been imitated relentlessly but whose originality has rarely been matched. This new kind of film dispensed with the old vampires and werewolves and instead assaulted audiences with portraits of serial killers, the dark side of suburbia, and a brand of nihilistic violence that had never been seen before.
Shock Value tells the improbable stories behind the making of these movies, which were often directed by obsessive and insecure young men working on shoestring budgets, were funded by sketchy investors, and featured porn stars. But once The Exorcist became the highest grossing film in America, Hollywood took notice, and the classic horror films of the 1970s have now spawned a billion-dollar industry.

"Aficionados should love it, and skeptics may find themselves giving this always disreputable genre the fair shake that, as this smart and savvy book makes clear, it deserves." (Mark Harris, author of Pictures at a Revolution)
"A good listen, but narrow in scope"
Shock Value's author sets out to show how a handful of horror directors including Wes Craven, George Romero, and John Carpenter, redefined the horror genre in the 1970s. Along the way he also spends quite a bit of time on some figures that many listeners (myself included) might consider peripheral to the genre: Roman Polanski and Brian DePalma. Both directors have obviously made some great movies, but I would have preferred a much more extensive treatment of the Italians who receive little more than a mention. Casting that wider net might have weakened his argument that a "new horror" was born in the US in the period he covers, but I think it would've made for a more interesting listen/read.
That's really a minor criticism, though. There's plenty here to like. From Dan O'Bannon's health struggles inspiring Alien to several directors' dislike of Hitchcock's Psycho, I found the book to be enjoyable for the most part. I really just with there was more of it.
Pete Larkin does a good job with the narration. He's not one who I'd necessarily seek out, but he's a capable narrator and he doesn't do anything that might detract from your enjoyment of the book.
"Great for Horror Fans"
I did recommend this to my horror geek friends.
None that I have read thus far.
The history of Wes Craven's upbringing and eventual move into horror was really mind blowing. I was like "WHAT?"
I laughed many times and shook my head a lot at the behind the scenes beefing between horror creators, writers and movie companies.
A really good book about the change in horror in the 70's.
"A worthwhile listen"
This is a real well researched and written history of Hollywood horror from the mid 70's to the early 80's. If there is a major horror film from this period Zinoman probably writes about its making and reception. Even if you are not a HUGE horror fan (I am not) the writing about the 'creative/collaborative process' and cultural shift is fascinating and well flushed out.
"Great Book, Terrible Narrator"
I read this book in print form when it first came out and absolutely loved it, when I saw it on sale recently it seemed like the perfect opportunity to pick up the audiobook and give it a quick listen. The book itself is excellent, however the narrator sounds like he's doing an 8 hour movie trailer. Definitely listen to the sample before you buy this book, it took all of thirty seconds before I realized that this guy was going to read the entire book like that, and I had to stop listening. This is one of only two audiobooks I've ever had to stop listening to because of the narrator, and it's a shame because this really is a great read, and is very informative for any horror fans.
"A Selective History of the "New Horror""
"Shock Value" is an interesting and educational read. In discussing the careers of a handful of directors, Zinoman attempts to trace the various themes running through the "New Horror" films of the late 1960s through the 1980s. He does a pretty good job of this, tying the films to one another, and even occasionally to their predecessors from the Golden Age of Horror. As much as this is about the directors, it is also about their movies.
The author's access to his subjects and ability to elicit detailed responses (for the most part) keeps the book filled with entertaining anecdotes about the films, the business and the men (and a few women) themselves. This book kept my interest throughout.
The book is limited somewhat in its focus on a handful of directors, and then, only upon a fraction of their output during the period. I would have liked to have a few more directors added to the mix.
The narrator is well-suited to the book.
"A Book with BRAINS!?! About the Horror Film."
This book reminds me of Easy Riders Raging Bulls. Both books cover similar ground essentially the late 60's to early 80's, Zinoman (who I believe is also a theater critic) presents an insightful knowledge of theater and how it affected directors like Craven and Hooper. This seemed at first a bit too highbrow for a genre that sometimes overly indulges in blood, gore, and exploitation but I think most of his points work.
John Carpenter and Dan O'Bannon's story was the most shocking. I knew the two worked together early on but had no idea how poorly Carpenter treated his "friend."
This was a great read - the book didn't really call for a performance but he brought his A-game just the same!
The book could totally work as a documentary similar to what they did with "Easy Riders, Raging Bulls."
Horror changed in 1968. Rosemary's Baby, Night of the Living Dead, and Targets bring to a close horror that was controversial at the time but from a contemporary vantage point seem all too innocent. Each of these movies drug the horror film into a new era but each retained vestiges of the past. Rosemary's Baby produced by William Castle! Targets staring Boris Karloff!! And Night of the Living Dead opening with an impression in Karloff's comforting lilt "There Coming to Get You Barbara!" How could you take this seriously. The man stumbling through the graveyard, he means us no harm. . . Afterall these are just movies that won't haunt us once we hit the lights.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Chick whisky, dude Cognac
Do we really need booze makers drawing lines in the sand for us?
NEW YORK -- What bottle did spirits aficionados find in their Christmas stockings this year? If producers had their way, the answer depends on gender.
For the ladies, it may have been confected vodka and whisky treats, softened with maple sugar, honey or ersatz fruit flavourings. Meanwhile, for gentlemen, rugged cognac may have carried the day, manned up with oak and fiery spice.
What's that? You're a woman who would rather enjoy a dram of (unflavoured) scotch? You're a man who enjoys fine (unflavoured) brandy? I applaud your good taste, and I'm not surprised. There's no conclusive evidence men and women perceive flavours differently, so it stands to reason spirits choices have more to do with individual preference than with what's between one's legs.
But producers think otherwise. Chick-targeted bottlings like MommyJuice wine, premixed Skinnygirl margaritas (and the legions of "skinny" competitors), and the lollipop-reminiscent Little Black Dress vodka line have been available for the past few years. With the roaring success of flavoured vodka now finally starting to simmer down -- some see the invention of Cinnabon-flavoured vodka as the category's shark jump -- spirits producers think flavoured whiskys are the next big thing in girl drinks. Recent arrivals include American Honey, a delicately honey-sweet liqueur that uses Wild Turkey bourbon as its base and Peach Mist, a flavoured version of Canadian Mist that resembles peach-flavoured sweet tea more than it resembles whisky. The Canadian Mist line also includes candy-like cinnamon, maple, and vanilla flavours.
These products go beyond the gender-specific ad campaigns that have been used to sell spirits for decades. What's new and pernicious about this type of product is the liquid inside the bottle was developed with a specific gender in mind.
Consider, for example, the newly released C by Courvoisier, with its deep nut-brown colour and oaky, spicy flavours -- reminiscent of espresso mixed with dried fruit and cloves. As a counterpoint to the more "feminine" Moscato-spiked Courvoisier Rosé and Gold lines, "It's considered Courvoisier for men," Courvoisier president and general manager Patrice Pinet told me, "for a night out with the guys."
Meanwhile, Grand Marnier, best known for its cognac-based orange liqueur, is rolling out a "GM Titanium" bottling made with a blend of cognacs aged from two to 20 years, orange essence, and a heady dose of spices (black pepper, anise, clove). It too was created to be drunk by young men.
Elizabeth Sweet, a sociologist at University of California-Davis (coincidentally, a school famed for its winemaking programs), sees parallels between how toys and these candy-like alcoholic beverages are marketed. Sweet wrote her dissertation on Sears toy catalogues from the turn of the century through 1995, examining how toys were explicitly and implicitly gendered. She found gendered toy advertising dropped in the 1970s but had become more prevalent by the mid-'90s as toymakers realized they could sell more versions of the same product via market segmentation.
"The people who were children in the 1990s when I started to see toys colour-coded by gender, pink and blue, they are becoming young adults," Sweet observes. And "they are used to gender differentiation in products." In other words, millennials are desensitized to gender-specific marketing; many have never known anything else. Young adults may not notice the lines drawn for them in the sand by savvy liquor marketing pros, and if they do notice, they may not even care. But they should.
Gender-specific spirits, like gender-specific toys, come at a potentially high cost. They reinforce narrow and negative stereotypes, which play a significant role in creating inequality. You might scoff that this is overreaction -- that it's just one bottle, or a handful of bottles. But consider the messages separate spirits for men and women send. A low-cal "skinny" vodka reinforces the idea women's weight and physical beauty are of the utmost importance. Similarly, bold, aggressive flavours "for men" send a harmful message. "If everything says to boys, you must be aggressive, you must be strong -- is it so surprising that we see so many incidents of masculine violence in our society? I don't think so," Sweet says.
Thankfully, some of today's consumers are pushing back against spirits producers' backwards ideas about gender.
Heather Greene, whisky sommelier at the Flatiron Room in New York, relays this tale: During her recent visit to Kentucky, Wild Turkey distiller Jimmy Russell mentioned American Honey. "He chuckled and said, 'We now have a honey-flavoured whisky. We made it for women, but men are the ones who are drinking it." (A representative from Wild Turkey confirms the product was indeed created in part to bring more women into the whisky world and consumption now is evenly split between men and women.)
I say: Well done, gentlemen. Here's hoping women will send the spirits industry a similar message by buying GM Titanium and Courvoisier C -- or, better yet, by buying old-fashioned, gender-neutral whisky, cognac, or vodka. Having tasted more flavoured girly whiskies and manly cognacs than I care to count, I can report that the plain stuff tastes better, anyway.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
This article may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. (May 2009) |
Fetal bovine serum (FBS) or fetal calf serum is the blood fraction remaining after the natural coagulation of blood, followed by centrifugation to remove any remaining red blood cells.[1] Fetal bovine serum comes from the blood drawn from a bovine fetus via a closed system of collection at the slaughterhouse. Fetal bovine serum is the most widely used serum-supplement for the in vitro cell culture of eukaryotic cells. This is due to it having a very low level of antibodies and containing more growth factors, allowing for versatility in many different cell culture applications.
The globular protein, bovine serum albumin (BSA), is a major component of fetal bovine serum. The rich variety of proteins in fetal bovine serum maintains cultured cells in a medium in which they can survive, grow, and divide.
Fetal bovine serum is a by-product of the meat industry. Fetal bovine serum, as with the vast majority of animal serum used in cell culture, is produced from blood collected at commercial slaughterhouses from cattle bred to supply meat destined for human consumption.
The first stage of the production process for fetal bovine serum is the harvesting of blood from the bovine fetus after the fetus is removed from the slaughtered cow. The blood is collected aseptically into a sterile container or blood bag and then allowed to clot. The normal method of collection is cardiac puncture, wherein a needle is inserted into the heart. This minimizes "the danger of serum contamination with micro-organisms from the fetus itself, and the environment".[1] It is then centrifuged to remove the fibrin clot and the remaining blood cells from the clear yellow (straw) colored serum. The serum is frozen prior to further processing that is necessary to make it suitable for cell culture.
The second stage of processing involves filtration, typically using a filtration chain with the final filtration being triple sterile 0.1 micrometre membrane filters. When processed by a reputable commercial serum supplier, the sterilized fetal bovine serum is subjected to stringent quality control testing and is supplied with a detailed Certificate of Analysis. The certificate gives full test results and information concerning the origin of the serum. Certificates of Analysis vary between commercial suppliers, but each usually includes the following details: filtration statement, country of origin, cell growth performance testing, microbial sterility testing, screening for mycoplasma and virus, endotoxin, haemoglobin, IgG and total protein assays.
Ethical questions have been raised regarding the blood collection process due to the potential suffering caused to the fetus. Research[1][2] is conflicting over whether fetal anoxia is likely to cause death prior to serum harvesting and whether bovine embryos are capable of experiencing pain. Ethical concerns surrounding the welfare of the donor animal are weighed against fetal bovine serum's beneficial use in human and animal health research.
Companies like Cook Medical and Compass Biomedical, Inc. are producing human platelet lysate based cell culture supplements to use as an FBS replacement for culturing cells.
Fetal bovine serum is commercially available from many manufacturers, and because cells grown in vitro are highly sensitive, customers usually test specific batches to check for suitability for their specific cell type. When changing from batch to batch it is usual to adapt the cells to the new batch of material, for example, by mixing 50% of the old serum with 50% of the new serum and allowing the cells to acclimatise to the new material.
According to the CDC fetal bovine serum is also a common ingredient in many vaccinations approved for humans, such as
Serum is stored frozen to preserve the stability of components such as growth factors. When serum is thawed, some precipitation may be seen. This is a normal phenomenon and it does not compromise the quality of serum in any way. The precipitate may be removed by transferring the serum to sterile tubes and centrifuging for 5 minutes at 400 x g.
To limit the amount of precipitation, it is recommended that the serum is thawed in a refrigerator at 2-8˚C. The serum should be regularly mixed during this process. Repeated freeze/thaw cycles should be avoided and it is advisable to dispense the serum into single use aliquots before freezing.
Serum produced for use in the biotechnology industry and research sectors is highly regulated. The collection and movement of all animal derived products globally is strictly controlled. Veterinary control of animal derived products largely follows the regulations set by the EU (DG SANCO) and the US (USDA). The current regulation governing the importation of animal by-products into the EU is covered by Regulation (EU) 1069/2009 and the implementation document Regulation (EU) 142/2011.
FBS is a product collected worldwide with the main collections being centered in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Central America, South America and Europe.
Sales of FBS in 2008 were estimated to be 700,000 litres globally.
Major companies that collect and sell FBS globally are members of the ISIA, the International Serum Industry Association. Member companies are listed on the ISIA website. Full contact details are available through this portal and the ISIA is able to answer any questions concerning the collection and use of this important resource.
The International Serum Industry Association was incorporated in June 2006 to self-regulate a previously unstandardized industry. The ISIA Mission Statement states: "ISIA shall establish, promote and assure compliance with uncompromised standards of excellence and ethics in the business practices of the global animal serum and animal derived products supply industry. Our primary focus will be on safety and safe use of serum and animal derived products through proper origin traceability, truth in labeling and appropriate standardization and oversight."[4]

Rec League
Recreational soccer is first and foremost about having fun, while learning the game of soccer. The PCYS Rec program consists primarily of local players from the Stevens Point/Portage county area looking to learn the basics of the world's game. Played on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from the middle of June until the end of July, we provide a less competitive atmosphere, while providing fun nights such as 'Root Beer night'. The coaches at the Rec level are traditionally PCYS parents who volunteer their time to coach their kid's team.

Motion Control ICs
Thursday, 01 June 2006
Performance Motion Devices (Lincoln, MA)
released the Magellan™ family of motion control ICs.
They provide smooth stop, abrupt stop, and system
disable, and are available for DC brush, brushless DC,
microstepping, and step motors. A hardware trace
buffer can store four performance-related values chosen
from over 28 recordable variables. Selectable variables
include position servo lag, motor output, servo
integral, and commutation angle, among others.
Collected data can be analyzed to determine increases
in machine wear or vibration, or whether other user-defined or performance-related conditions
have occurred. Magellan's automatic machine monitoring system handles conditions such as
motion error, positive and negative limit switches, position breakpoints, and commutation monitoring.
Other features include a programmable PID filter with velocity and acceleration feed forward,
32-bit position error, dual biquad filters, and multi-chip synchronization.

Reciprocating Platform
Thursday, 01 June 2006
Amacoil (Aston, PA) offers a reciprocating
linear motion platform driven by a
rolling ring drive that reciprocates automatically
without requiring motor reversal.
Designed for a PCB measurement/cleaning
process, the assembly may also be used for
scanning barcodes on parts and other applications
requiring repetitive back-and-forth
movement. Rolling ring bearings inside the
drive assure a backlash-free motion. Smooth
reversal is achieved with a modified reversal
mechanism that dampens the reversal
action, dissipating forward momentum at the reversal points.

Hi all. I'm here to see if I can get any wisdom from those of you who have had diabetes longer than me. I was diagnosed about 2 months ago and I've gathered from other posts that people here are all over the spectrum as far as how long they've had it. It may be helpful to a lot of others like myself who are just starting out to hear from some of you veterans out there. More specifically; Is there anything you wish you had or had known up front that would've helped you in the long haul either with management or with your health? Is there anything you wish you had done or started doing right away that would've helped your health and management or prevented any complications?
To be clear, this isn't the thread to say "I wish I had never gotten this" or bemoan your diabetic state. So please, keep things positive here! Hoping to find some great insight and learn from others!
Thanks for leaving your typo for us, Molly! It made me laugh!
Yeah, I'm seeing that this is a pain and nuisance. However, you're absolutely right when you say it's better than dying from cancer. Heck, it's better than dying from diabetes too! Before I was dx I had narrowed my condition down to 3 things. 1. Tapeworm (weight loss and fatigue), 2. Diabetes and 3. Cancer. Strange as it may sound I was hoping for the worm! Oh well! Thanks for the tips and typo. I'm not a drinker at all really. Actually, trying to find a red wine I can stand to drink since the doc says it helps with the cholesterol! Lemme know if you know any good ones.
The usual Merlot ...could be the restaurant's House wine ?? ...I had Red Rooster ( from the Canadian Okanagan wine country yesterday ) ...a bit of advertizing here to visit our part of Canada , ah , ha ) http://www.redroosterwinery.com/ and also my last name before the present Peach name was Rooster ...another story !
I'm sorry, but I can't stop laughing about the tapeworm idea. Incidentally, they don't cause weight loss unless you have a crapton of them. Yes, a crapton. Lol.
Yeah, I knew they didn't typically cause weight loss, but hey the worm was a better option than this or cancer! And crapton... I see what you did there! =]

NY Times Op-Ed on Common Sense for Marijuana
Earlier this week we reported on New York Governor Andrew Cuomo proposing the decriminalization of marijuana possession in public view, as long as it was of 25 grams or less (MJ Decriminalized).
Republican State Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos responded that the proposal would allow people to "walk around with 10 joints in each ear." A silly statement at first glance – how big do your ears have to be to hold ten joint in each? – Senator Skelos' statement belies the hysteria that still surrounds marijuana, the "reefer madness" if you will.
The New York Times editorial board responded to Mr. Skelos with an op-ed calling for common sense on the issue of marijuana. "The plan does not condone marijuana use," the NYT board writes. "People smoking marijuana in public would still be subject to arrest. But it reduces open possession of 25 grams or less from a misdemeanor, which involves arrest and a criminal record, to a violation, akin to a traffic ticket. Even under the proposal, a person charged with a marijuana violation more than twice in a three-year period would be subject to a $250 fine or a sentence of up to 15 days in jail, or both."
The fact is a lot of old politicians don't know much about marijuana and don't bother to learn about proposals concerning marijuana. This proposal would not allow people to walk around with marijuana in plain view. All it does is not charge people with a crime if police ask them to empty their pockets. Under current rules, actually possessing small amounts of cannabis is decriminalized, but having it in public view is a misdemeanor. In other words, pulling out weed in public is a crime, even if a cop told you to do it.
"Common sense" is the perfect phrase for the future of marijuana policy. If a policy violates common sense it's probably not a good policy to begin with.

Let me see if I was selling a house and I owned a car that is parked in the garage and a buyer wants to buy the house but he is a little short on cash so he decide to sell my car and used the proceeds as part of money to buy my house.
Safeway owns the PDC and 49% of Casa Ley and Albertson is selling those assets to pay a portion of the purchase price.
I am voting no on this "buyout".

lemmy c...you own a house that you wanna sell but somebody else has the deed?
now you want the deed so that you place your name on it...i'm not sure if that will cover you when it comes up for sale?
plus you don't wanna forget that if the house sells you only 13.5% of the interest + cost for all xeroxing.
be cautious...
