Two-Layer Error Control Codes Combining Rectangular and Hamming Product Codes for Cache Error
Received: 12 November 2013 / Revised: 20 January 2014 / Accepted: 10 February 2014 / Published: 27 February 2014
(This article belongs to the Special Issue Resiliency, Robustness, and Reliability (R3) for VLSI Circuits and Systems)
Abstract: We propose a novel two-layer error control code, combining error detection capability of rectangular codes and error correction capability of Hamming product codes in an efficient way, in order to increase cache error resilience for many core systems, while maintaining low power, area and latency overhead. Based on the fact of low latency and overhead of rectangular codes and high error control capability of Hamming product codes, two-layer error control codes employ simple rectangular codes for each cache line to detect cache errors, while loading the extra Hamming product code checks bits in the case of error detection; thus enabling reliable large-scale cache operations. Analysis and experiments are conducted to evaluate the cache fault-tolerant capability of various existing solutions and the proposed approach. The results show that the proposed approach can significantly increase Mean-Error-To-Failure (METF) and Mean-Time-To-failure (MTTF) up to 2.8×, reduce storage overhead by over 57%, and increase instruction per-cycle (IPC) up to 7%, compared to complex four-way 4EC5ED; and it increases METF and MTTF up to 133×, reduces storage overhead by over 11%, and achieves a similar IPC compared to simple eight-way single-error correcting double-error detecting (SECDED). The cost of the proposed approach is no more than 4% external memory access overhead.

Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch
any 'older' gamers playing this?
- Back To:
- Board List

It seems that only younger people find this game "kiddish." kind of ironic huh? That's always the case. It's because kids feel like they have to *prove* their maturity, so things that appear "kiddie" -- Ni No Kuni, lots of Nintendo games, etc -- are a threat to them being taken seriously. But people who are *actually* adult are secure enough to enjoy them. Who's going to tell someone who pays bills, has a significant other, served in the military, can drink and vote and rent cars, maybe supports kids of his own, that he's "immature" for enjoying Ni No Kuni or Pokemon? It's ridiculous. Every time I hear someone complain about "baby games," or "[Insert game or game company here] is for kids," I can only think of my four-year-old nephew demanding his mother let him do something because he's "a big boy now." | |
I'm 39, and I bought it, but I'm trying to finish Tales of Graces f right now, so it will be a while before I get to it. | |

Well... I'm 33... thanks for considering me "old". :D --- ~ Saving the world one video game at a time Playing: FFXII; Ni no Kuni; eagerly waiting for FFXIV: A Realm Reborn | |
27 here. 33 hours in and loving it. Nice to have a game I can play while my 1 year old is up and around. He loves it. --- Jackleber - Bwa ha ha that's awesome. Did you drunk dial my mom? That's wicked...... UnlimitedDeviation | |
I think it's a refreshing change of pace from the usual jrpg fare, at least so far. It also helps that me and my fiance are big Studio Ghibli fans, and we enjoy picking out little references to some of the films (did anyone see that Porco Grosso-lol-entry in the Compendium). Plus an amazing score by Joe Hisaishi, another Ghibli favorite, and that sealed the deal for us. I find the story it tells whimsical, not childish. Charming characterizations, lots of towns and dungeons to explore, a huge open world to roam in-all of these factors, to me, come together to form one of the best jrpg's to be released on the PS3. And one of the best jrpg's of this generation. | |
"22" ....i would love to know how someone knows the avg age of this board... lol 39 and just started it! --- Psn: Dillonthebunny. Legend Edgemaster of the Unicorn | |
Quite possible older audiences buy this type of games since it was what we grew up with back in the 90s and early 2000s on PS1/PS2 generation of consoles (at least what I grew up with). Seems to me like the past few years there's a shortage of good JRPGs coming out on consoles and most younger people prefer to play something else. | |
I'm 17 which is a pretty mature age for a teenager and i like it. I like the game and if their's anything I could change, it would probably be the MC's age. I just hate being a little kid, but I don't mind it after playing for so long now. Since I'm in High school I should be the one most worried about what people think of me playing this game, but I learned a way to get through that ever since middle school... DON'T GIVE A CRAP. My friends made fun of me for getting this game at first too, but I don't complain since all they play is whatever the crowd is playing. Not to mention that all they talk about is COD. So once again I don't care. --- Currently Playing: Persona 4 The Golden and Guild Wars 2 PSN ID: yooobooyj | |

I'm not leaving DP; I'm too old and cranky for that--
and DP is my only source for news--
also, there are a lot of reasonable people on here--
but after this Boston 'thing' it's hard to post any questions or even simple comments without being called an "AJ whore" (whatever that is; I've seen very little of AJ) or a 'conspiracy theorist'--
I just don't take anything at face value.
And like the person below who said that they don't see what they want to see--
I've been looking for glimmers of hope in the world, and I'm not seeing it right now--
Michael, thank you for all your hard work all these years--
keep it up, and don't give up on DP, please. It's hard to think when there's 'noise' in any room, but I believe there are still many thinking people on DP--
it's hard to be awake; it's easier to dream--

I'm a little slow but wanted to say welcome to your lodge! I'm so excited to follow your journey.
I enjoyed reading your last birth story and I totally think you'll have a quick birth this time. Your first was speedy, especially with an OP baby.
DD - Nov/06, DS - Sept/08, DS - Mar/11
I am jealous of those of you who have quick births!
Did you do anything fun this weekend? How are you feeling?
We had a nice quiet weekend. Yesterday was completely lazy (DH has a hurt back) so we all stayed in pj's ALL day, even skipped church which is rare for us. I made DH some yummy biscuits and gravy though and did finish a bib and burp clothes.
My belly is lopsided, even my stretch marks are longer and heavier on my right side now. I have a hard time figuring out which way she is facing unless I can clearly feel her kicks. I'm 90% sure that her head is low and bottom up, but she seems to be at an angle where her bottom is close to the middle of my belly and her legs may be making up the bulk on my right side. I've been reading spinning babies, but it tends to confuse me.

Happy 37 weeks! I hope she straightens out for you, it sounds like it could be brutal on the hips.
I can't remember if you are seeing a MW or Dr. either way, it shouldn't matter, they should be able to tell baby's position from the fetal heart tones and feeling around, that way, if she's ROT (like mine), you can try to get her to turn before she goes OP (like mine seems to be doing). I think you and I "discussed" this on another thread and you mentioned your first was OP. It personally doesn't bother me too much to deliver another OP baby (famous last words until that back labor kicks in!).
-Becca, mom to Jacob (5-3-2003) Zach (6-20-2006) Zoey Jane (2-6-200 Alex (8-11-2011) and Emma Grace (due March 2014)!!
Yes Becca, I have 2 midwives. They feel her at every appointment and she has been consistantly head down, but we haven't always been able to tell her rotation very well. As I keep repeating to myself and the midwives (and I know you can relate): "I know I can push out an OP baby relatively well, but I'm so hoping to have an even easier birth! Double peak contractions are not fun!"
37 weeks!!!! I can now officially birth at the birthing center. This is a great day Unfortunately, there is a birth today so we had to move my 37 week appointment to tomorrow. Normally I would just switch my appt to the other midwife, but I guess once you hit full-term, they like you to have your appt with the midwife that is delivering babies that week. Sigh - was really looking forward to an appt today and it messed up my plans with a friend tomorrow.

dc.description.abstract | The self-employed represent about ten percent of the American workforce. Challenges to a fuller understanding of self-employment in the United States include the ability to generalize the results of research studies. These analyses seek to clarify issues surrounding their earnings and work satisfaction. A taxonomy based on industry and occupation codes closes gaps in this knowledge. Perspectives that express the importance of an independent middle class or petty bourgeoisie guide multilevel models that investigate the role self-employment can play in mitigating the effects of structural conditions such as high poverty. Using public use microdata sample data from the American Community Survey, I find that the self-employed are by no means a homogenous group of individuals who are engaged in similar kinds of work, the success of those who best their peers is usually not the result of human capital differences, and the best explanation for these differences must therefore lie in the social networks built by these individuals to improve their businesses over time. | en_US |

Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer, $36 "Discovering this primer was the best thing that ever happened to my sensitive skin. I've tried a million different kinds and they either made me break out or felt too greasy and sticky. Not this one. It goes on silky and smoothes my skin so that it's a blank, even canvas for foundation, which is no easy feat given that my combination oily/dry skin. I ran out of this product once -- it was a dark few days before I could get my hands on more. I learned my lesson. Now I hoard it." --Allie, Editorial Intern

Clearly not THE ECONOMIST's finest - they still think Lagos is the capital? really??!!
What really annoys me is that, because of this little brat - and let's face it, he is spoiled little brat who drank a too much of his radical posh London Imam's Kool-aid, traveling on my Nigerian passport is going to be even more of a hassle than it already is. It already used to take me 4 times as long to clear security than any of my European, American, or even Middle Eastern friends during those spring break group trips when I was in college and grad school in the US. There's plenty or profiling going on already - which I think is fair enough.
You can bang on about lax security in Lagos but I fly between Lagos and the US via Europe several times a year and, besides major airports like JFK, Paris, Newark, security isn't much tighter in western airports than Lagos.
Also I always get security screened at the connecting airport in Europe (usually CDG or LHR). Infact I stopped flying KLM because I found Amsterdam excessive - they used to bring scary dogs to the doors of planes to sniff on passengers arriving from Lagos but I noticed that never happened on the way back from the US. So there is a substantial measure of precaution and profiling going on already. Again, fair enough.
I also know for a fact that he would not have been allowed to board the plane in Lagos without a valid US visa. So what I find worrisome is that that someone at the US embassy in Lagos or Abuja issued him a visa to the US after his own father has reportedhim to the US authorities. Either that or he was traveling on a fake passport and visa, and the airline didn't spot it.
The reality is that this guy sllipped through the cracks. Yes, we have our issues here in Nigeria but, however you hack it, several things went wrong at several points other than Lagos airport.
I'm sure it will all be fine. Our radical libertarian vaguely neonazi pro radical Islam pro Iranian bloggers like Glenn Greenwald assure us there's no such thing as terrorism unless the US and of course their Zionist puppet masters are doing it. Nothing to see here folks. Obama will negotiate with them with no preconditions. It will all be OK.
Lagerbear , 1st , name scanning is worth more than shit if it's done properly and , more closely , defined as identity scanning. Fritz Gelowicz wouldn't have gone very far in a Western airport who practiced this.
2nd , you will not succeed in blowing up a plane just by sheer determination and cleverness , as attested by the fortunate lack of exploding planes since 2001 , accompanied by the increase of determined and artful militants.I'm sorry but the stick of dynamite will not do.
3rd , tight airport security is an inconvenience but it's hardly "giving up freedom".Everyone is still free to fly anywhere anytime , in the West at least. If you have to disclose more information to do it and that bothers you , stay home.
oh my god!!!! i hope their familys r safe too! God Bless You!
Argh, don't people take their time to read what others posted before and think about it?
1st: Name-scanning is worth shit, because you have enough terrorists with sufficiently western names. One of the terrorists who were arrested in Germany for trying to build bombs was named Fritz Gelowicz. Would you have thought of singling out a guy with that name?
2nd: If you are hell-bound to blow up a plain and play it clever, the sad truth is you will succeed. Have to strip naked before boarding a plane? Hell, just stuff a stick of dynamite up yours.
3nd: A society that gives up freedom to obtain security will loose both in the end. (In similar wording by Mark Twain)
So because one a-hole decided to act out a religous fantasy, I have to show up fours early at each end of any round trip? If perpetuated this will be the end of air travel for any but the most pressing reasons, and victory for the a-hole and his sponsors.
Maybe it wasn't about bring down one flight, but rather about inconveniencing air travellers to a point of intolerance. Which would be a viable strategic objective for the a-hole's sponsors, with more financial and operational impact than actually crashing the one airplane. We're letting terrorists win on the cheap through knee-jerk reactions.
If the overwhelming majority of terrorist attempts and strikes was perpetrated by , say , Norwegians , wouldn't airport security screen Norwegians more carefully? What's the problem and why the delay in profiling passengers ? Given what we know and the times we live in I can't be convinced that a passenger named Farouk , out of Nigeria bound for the US should be screened with the same care as one named Van der Graaf , out of Amsterdam bound for the same place. Racist and prejudiced? Call it what you will but there is a kind of war going on , last time I checked. Exceptional measures are called for , profiling and differentiated screening are two that might help.
In that cold winter day just after Christmas 2014, I was scheduled to fly to New York at 16:35. By 11:30, five hours earlier as prescribed by the law, I entered the airport area. I quietly stayed 17 minutes in the row: it was relatively fast this time, luckily no people showing tiredness or impatience so no 20000 Volt teasers shot at them, with the usual mess of agents and dogs and then the usual delay.
My two luggage pieces were X-Rayed at the end of the track. I emptied my pockets and took off my belt (I should stop using old-fashioned belts!) then passed under the metal detector to exit the train station and enter the protected airport area, welcomed by heavily armed patrols at every corner.
The first of two doors opened after me when I passed my biometric passport on the scanner with the left hand, then one finger of my right hand on the reader. The airport systems automatically matched me with my outgoing flight ticket in a matter of seconds, all my most detailed personal information passing from the State database to the airline and through the airport systems.
I entered the narrow corridor, heavily illuminated. The scanners checked my luggage next to me again and myself to the bone with use of X-rays, while guards discussed about my miserable naked body under the clothes and possessions shown on their screens and automated computers checked every little bit of those images. I slowly walked further, alone in that silence sometimes interrupted by the grin of the scanners, thinking that maybe this time I would finally get that horribly destructive form of multiple internal cancer caused by all that radiation (but no public scientific evidence could ever demonstrate the connection), so then at least I would never have to travel again.
The exit door went open, I was in the check-in area. Despite my attention while packing, they asked me to open the luggage again on a side table. One soldier kept me at safe discance while a pretty female soldier wearing their anti infective suit up to the neck, her face signed by tiredness and her hair all cut, manually searched among my underwear and all my personal belongings, carefully looking to all of them. I started feeling thirsty.
They let me go. Checking in all the two luggage pieces I had went pretty smooth, this time the gentle but firm check in employee connected the travel chip to my passport, then only asked me if I had other objects, remembering me I should embark everything. But he did not want to do a manual search. I hated to be manually searched every time, it felt like harassment despite their good manners.
No cafe's and no snacks in the sealed check in area, I walked reaching the changing rooms. Surprisingly I only had to stay for 15 minutes in the row. In that closed little space, with the security camera looking at me, I took all my clothes off while wearing the one-piece orange suit for travelling that I had got from the man on the door. I sealed all my clothes in his plastic bag and gave them to him too while going out. He put a sticker on that bag and left it on a moving belt behind. Also my clothes I would see back at destination many hours later, with a bit of luck.
It was about 14:50 by now. Sweating in that unhygienic plastic orange suite, used by who knows how many others before me, boring with nothing in my hands and still thirsty I got at least the chance of a coffee to be consumed within the perimeter of the bar, when we were called to the gate. Still 20 minutes walking, sometimes carried by the conveyor belt, through two wings of young armed soldiers. How boring should that be for a job, I though. What if after a day boredrom they lose patience and shot at the first sneezing passenger passing by, by mistake. For a short second I hoped that could be me.
Finally, I was inside the armoured space of the plane. I reached my assigned first class seat, relatively comfortable compared to those terrible economy things people had to stay on and get back pain from.
In a matter of another half hour everybody was on board. The captain let us know we were leaving, we should stay seated and still and prepare for departure. An automated voice told the usual anti-panic story, then that horrible. departure sound played.
I freezed in my chair, to prevent being wounded. I shaked a bit, never could adapt to this thing despite having to fly frequently in order not to lose my job. The metallic locks came out the chair, firmly locking my waist, my both arms and my ankle to my seat. I would have stayed prisoner of that damned seat for many hours to come, until landing and parking, and then the hell of all those security checks and questions on the arrivals side, too, yet more miserable hours of wasted life.
The plane slowly started moving, at last. The lights dimmed while the sleeping gas started to fill the air to let me and everybody else in the plane fall in a disturbed inducted sleep without dreams...
@generated3508913 the "Delta" plane was an NWA flight. Delta owns Northwest. The paint on the plane has nothing to do with the flight number.
The passing 2009 has witnessed a series of air crashes. People, at least to me, begin to worry whether it is safe to take a fight. Hard to imagine if this time the plane blew up inevitably, what a happy holiday season would be.It would be a shocking news to those who were waiting at the airport for their relatives and friends to have a family reunion. Maybe God is really help them invisibly in stopping the seemed likely-to-happen terrorist attack.
Government should step up its scrutiny at the airport. After all, once such incident happens, lots of innocence will die from it.
The real question is the failure of the US State Department (along with the relevant intelligence agencies with the databases in question.) This man was issued a two-year visa in 2008 AFTER he was already in the TIDES system. The Asst. SECSTATE for Consular Affairs should be raising all hell right now because the NIV sections of the US consulates ought to be given full access (at least the ability to run names) to the TIDES (and other systems) that would have allowed the Consular officer in London to cross check his name and subsequently deny the visa. Additionally, US visas ought to require reconfirmation in the event a traveler visits a country with known terrorist activity. If he had a valid visa for the US, then visited Yemen (without having disclosed the potential trip to Consular officials,) that visa should be automatically suspended pending a reinvestigation by the US consulate (could be as simple as a database name check to ensure that someone isn't on a database with "significant or possible terrorist connections." These two proposals would be rather simple to implement and wouldn't create any hardship for legitimate travelers. CONOPS is the first line of defense against this situation and in this case, it failed (though presumably due to no fault of the State Department's consular corps, but at the policy/information sharing level.)
What's the link between the headline, "Terror in the sky", a story about an incident upon a Northwestern Airlines aircraft, and the accompanying image showing the Delta Airlines logo looming large in the sky above a Delta Airlines aircraft?
I do not know what the UK is supposed to do.
The total blame for this incident lies at the door of the US authorities.
According to the latest reports, the father of this guy approached the US embassy in Abuja in November to voice concerns about his son.
Why was he issued a visa to travel the US?
Why is someone of his background prepared to kill himself and others?
70,000 Americans die every year due to air pollution, more than the number of deaths caused by traffic accident.
My comment about profiling based on Muslim names, that received some remarks from other readers, got removed.
Just to answer the critics. In situation like this there are only choices between a bad and a worse one. Focusing on Muslims might reek of discrimination, but being political correct is invitation to a Holocaust in the US. This is not exaggeration. Osama's fatwa clearly states that the duty of every Muslim is to kill every American, soldier and citizen, man, woman, child. You see Osama want to create an Ancient like Caliphate. He is an Islamic fascist; Exterminate the other and rule according to strict rules of the Creed. The kind of regime that Martin Niemoller was suffering under.
Where is the rage of Islamists coming from? We should not care. Understanding the perpetrator and his supporters is the domain of psycho therapist. Islamic fascism is beyond Psycho therapy. We need to extinguish them form this earth, there is no other choice.
We can not be overly sensitive in our prevention of their attacks, for the alternative is the extension of our civilization. For those Muslims that are caught in between, you have to deal with it. It is not us that have put you in this predicament.
It will really help if you stand up for the West and stop 'understanding' the roots of the Muslim rage. Understanding terrorism is giving them legitimacy. The persons that you should issue your complaints with are the Islamic fascists, not those that are trying to defend their civilization against the barbarians, with all the means that are at their disposal
The goal of terrorism is to inspire fear. The more repressively we respond to it the easier it becomes to scare us.
Despite evidence to the contrary (MI6 was forced to admit that sectarian issues in Northern Ireland are currently the biggest threat in the UK at least) our governments continue to talk up an islamicist threat. If they do this long enough and put enough people in prison then they'll probably succeed in creating the very threat they are so worried about.
Regarding the attempts themselves - why are we all so worried about planes blowing up? Any serious terrorist might, in future, prefer to attack queues at airport security checks for maximum effect with minimal investment: more fear and more repression.
A cartoon about the "additional restrictions" being imposed by the American TSA ... http://politicomix.blogspot.com/
No word is enough to condemn such a heinous crime. A group of terroist to satisfy their sadistic pleasure are indulging in this sort of crime.I am pretty sure, they have lost their common sense and turned themselves into thugs otherwise how can someone can think of blowing up a planeful of innocent passengers? People everywhere need to unite to single out these elements and handover them over to the law enforcing agencies.
vandenberge: google David Headley - clearly a success story for name profiling.
i guess SteveK9 is right, yet another wave of stupid procedures and controls. the us government had known for years that this guy was a threat. why did they let him on board without checking him thoroughly? stop harrassing decent people with the endless and useless safety controls at the airports and start focus on those you know are terrorists. this would save a lot of money and would be more efficient.
mind you, not one of these standard controls has stopped any terrorist = complete waste of time and money.

It's a big, big day in the Cudiverse. Much to the delight of hip-hop stoners everywhere, this morning Kid Cudi let loose of the first single off his upcoming sophomore album, Man on the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager, the enigmatically titled REVOFEV. (Say it like "Rev of ev," short for "revolution of evolution.) Sonically, REVOFEV picks up where Man on the Moon left off, with producer Plain Pat crafting an eclectically influenced, often chaotic beat, accompanied by Larry Gold's string arrangement, that Cudi uses to drop the same slowly drawling rhymes and "whoa whoa whoa" singing style he's made his highly successful trademark. While I can't hear anything particularly revolutionary, or evolutionary, about the track, I'm sure Kid Cudi nation will be more than happy to pour over the lyrics for hours (perhaps assisted by their good friend THC). No official word yet on when we can expect Man on the Moon II, but it's only a matter of time before Cudi shakes up our definition of hip-hop once again.

that which is said; a declaration; a statement, especially a proverbial one; an aphorism; a proverb
A saying is something that is said, notable in one respect or another, to be "a pithy expression of wisdom or truth". There are a number of specific types of saying: ⁕Adage – An aphorism that has gained credibility by virtue of long use. ⁕Aphorism – A concise definition, notably memorable. ⁕Apophthegm – "…an edgy, more cynical aphorism; such as, 'Men are generally more careful of the breed of their horses and dogs than of their children.'" ⁕Bromide – A phrase or platitude that, having been employed excessively, suggests insincerity or a lack of originality in the speaker employing it. ⁕Cliché – An overly commonplace, hackneyed or trite saying. ⁕Epigram – A poetic form of comment on a particular idea, occurrence, or person. ⁕Epithet – A descriptive word or phrase that has become a popular formulation. ⁕Gnome. A type of saying, especially an aphorism or a maxim, that is designed to provide instruction in a compact form. ⁕Idiom – "…an expression whose meaning can't be derived simply by hearing it, such as 'Kick the bucket.'" ⁕Mantra – A religious or mystical syllable or poetic phrase. ⁕Maxim – A principle or rule. A maxim is a wise saying, especially one intended to advise or recommend a course of conduct. In comparison to its approximate synonyms: saying, adage, saw, motto, epigram, proverb, aphorism, the term maxim stresses the succinct formulation of an ultimate truth, a fundamental principle, or a rule of conduct. The word derives from the Latin word maximus, "greatest", via an expression maxima propositio, "greatest premise".

brewed this one again and have placed an order for more hops as I know how good this was last summer. I added the limeade about 5 days after pitching the yeast since the fermentation was slowing drastically... within a few hours the blow off tube was doing its job again. Now to let it finish it's thing for the next couple weeks and keg it for a camping trip. Thanks again for the recipe!
Ordering up my ingredients to make this our second all-grain batch ever after a Nut Brown. Can't wait to taste this one. Hopefully it turns out ok. Thanks for the recipe!
You know, I dont have access to these high tech western products like frozen concentrated lime juice...but I can get some fresh limes squeezed locally. How much ya reckon for a 5 gallon batch? Same volume as the concentrate? edited to add... Slow day in the office so I did the math myself. I also just planted a lime tree, so: For a 6 gal. batch as in the original post. 1.75L of Simply Limeade has 204 grams of sugar total, only 12% of this is pure lime juice. 12% of 1750 mL is 210 mL of pure lime juice which only includes 3 grams of inherent sugar from the fruit.Therefore substitute 1.75L of Simply Limeade with:6 Gallon210 mL of squeezed lime juice 201 grams of sugar Top up with water to reach 1750 mL's5 Gallon175 mL of squeezed lime juice 168 grams of sugar Top up with water to reach 1458 mL's

Things to do in Burlington
Find out what's underwater at this interactive science museum; there are more than 70 species featured in ever-changing exhibits. It also hosts an adult-friendly cocktail party called ECHO After Dark on the second Thursday of every month.
The Rails-to-Trails movement of the 1990s opened miles of bike paths along the shores of Lake Champlain (and sometimes on it) and inspired the non-profit advocacy group Local Motion to promote community health via "people-powered" transportation.
A lesser-known attraction in the area, the Perkins Geology Museum is located on the campus of the University of Vermont.
The five-story converted firehouse has rotating art exhibitions every fall.
More than anything, Umiak Outdoor Outfitters wants to get people moving — either paddling on Vermont's rivers and lakes in the summer or gliding through the winter snow on skis, snowshoes, or dog sleds.
Pop in for a cup of hot cocoa, made with organic sugar, milk, vanilla, and a scoop of ganache.
While the advent of the indoor shopping mall in the 1970's meant the death of most pedestrian malls, this one—established in 1981—still buzzes with activity.
Burlington's only downtown grocery store, City Market is a community-owned food cooperative selling a wide range of local and organic goods, as well as a smaller selection of name-brand products.
For many visitors, this 45-acre museum feels more like a wonderland than a museum, thanks mainly to the village-like layout that incorporates 25 historic buildings relocated here by founder and American folk art collector Electra Havemeyer Webb.
After transforming his boyhood home into a full-time job in the late 1970s, Nick Cowles now manages 80 acres of apple, peach, and sour cherry orchards along Lake Champlain.
Founded by Jake Burton in 1977, this namesake company is one of the nation's leading suppliers of snowboarding equipment. This flagship store, located near the factory in Burlington, carries an assortment of equipment and gear for winter sports enthusiasts.
Behind its iconic marquee, the city's largest theater has served many roles since opening in 1930 as a vaudeville house.
Located on the Burlington Bay waterfront, this unusual shop is part of the Peace & Justice Center, a nonprofit organization that promotes human rights, racial justice, and economic equality.
At the Hort Farm (as it's locally known), students from the University of Vermont have conducted biological research for more than 60 years. At present, the 97-acre facility hosts experimental apple orchards, grape vines, ornamental shrubbery, flower gardens, and a bat house.

Abstract: The present work discusses and compares the toluene sensing behavior of polyaniline (PANI) and graphene/polyaniline nanocomposite (C-PANI) films. The graphene–PANI ratio in the nanocomposite polymer film is optimized at 1:2. For this, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) solvent is used to prepare PANI-NMP solution as well as graphene-PANI-NMP solution. The films are later annealed at 230 °C, characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) as well Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and tested for their sensing behavior towards toluene. The sensing behaviors of the films are analyzed at different temperatures (30, 50 and 100 °C) for 100 ppm toluene in air. The nanocomposite C-PANI films have exhibited better overall toluene sensing behavior in terms of sensor response, response and recovery time as well as repeatability. Although the sensor response of PANI (12.6 at 30 °C, 38.4 at 100 °C) is comparatively higher than that of C-PANI (8.4 at 30 °C, 35.5 at 100 °C), response and recovery time of PANI and C-PANI varies with operating temperature. C-PANI at 50 °C seems to have better toluene sensing behavior in terms of response time and recovery time.

Many must applaud your writing style and the human character of your approach. But the fine edge of humor is that special ingredient as you fashion your words into story and thoughts.
Yes, LUNCH, like Silicon Valley, is a verb. We, as more global Californians, tend to DO rather than GO places. We lunch as a combination of interaction and activity. We Silicon Valley in our willingness to spread our rapid innovation and commercialization of technologies throughout the world.
We DO!

Thomas Friedman has a rather interesting Op-Ed piece in the New York times where he suggests that Toyota should buy General Motors. I have no idea if any such thing is remotely on the table, but the points he makes are quite thought provoking and pertinent to sustainability. The basic premise is that shortsighted management at GM (largely toward fuel economy) is the main culprit in the company's currently dismal financial condition.
A buyout by, say, Toyota (soon to be the world's largest car company) would bring new thinking to American automaking, massively boost hybrid technology, and move a "geo-green" agenda forward that would ultimately "strengthen the dollar, reduce our trade deficit, make America the world leader in combating climate change and stimulate U.S. companies to take the lead in producing the green technologies that the world will desperately need". Read the rest at NYTimes.com.
Could Toyota Buy General Motors? For a Stronger USA?
Nick Aster | Friday June 17th, 2005 | 15 Comments
- http://oraculations.blogspot.com Duke
Friedman is nuts. Why would Toyota ever buy a company that is saddled with a UAW contract that demands the company pay $1,500 on each car manufactured into union health and welfare benefits? Especially when Toyota is kicking their ass BECAUSE their own costs are only $300 per car. #2. The hybrid technology that all you bozos keep touting is simply a sales job by Toyota. The facts are that the fuel economy is at best 45 miles per gallon, the battery costs $5k and has to be replaced in nine years, which means the car has NO RESALE value without a secondary battery warranty which will add $5K to the initial cost of the car. #3 In case you doubt me, just ask any of the test drivers what they think of hybrids: no guts, slow to attain speed, and HORRIBLE GAS MILEAGE in town. Hybrids are a Toyota hype job.
- Paul
1) Health care costs wouldn't be an issue if GM made cars people wanted to buy. The management is at fault, not the workers.
2a) My parent's Prius has averaged 50mpg since they bought it in 2001.
2) The batteries are warrantied for 70,000 miles and, because they have no moving parts, are less likely to go bad than the transmission
3a) If I want to buy a sports car or an SUV, I'll listen to Car & Driver or MotorTrend. Otherwise they don't rate cars on issues people actually care about. I don't drag race or tow a boat. I drive to and from work at the speed limit trying desperately to save gas and not get killed.
3b) I see no performance difference between my parent's Prius and my wife's Pontiac Vibe GT.
Is it better to have a car where getting 45mpg is 'horrible' or to have an SUV where getting 20mpg is 'phenomenal?' - Anonymous
Why hasn't Toyota bought GM already? Years ago Toyota entered a partnership with GM in California. Toyota took over a GM plant. They brought in their management but kept the UAW hourly workers. This plant now makes the Toyota Matrix and Pontiac Vibe. Additionally, Toyota could buy GM for $20 billion which is about $15 billion less than the cash GM has. Also, GM plants took the top 3 J.D. Power awards for initial quality for North and South America. Further, GM scored top 4 out of 5 and 8 out of 10. GM is back. Toyota should buy before the price goes up!
- Anonymous
I agree that hyrids are over rated. Pay more now. Get negative payback from the gas savings. Then take a bath at trade-in time because you need a $5000 battery. Who are the idiots that buy these things?
- Troy
Some of the statments made so far in these messages drives home the point that the Internet povides a great forum for the uninformed of the World.
1) You have people knocking a vehicle for getting 45 MPG when gas has hit $3.00 per gallon? By the way, I know two Prius owners that consistently get OVER 60 MPH.
2)The Prius has been in production for going on nine years. Where is Japan putting all of these worn out battries.
3)FYI. The battery does not have to be replaced when you can replace individual cells instead. BTW-How many transmissions does a Chrysler or Ford use in 100,000 miles (which, by the way, is the length of time the Hybrid battries are covered from Toyota on all Prisus')?
4) As Paul stated, if you are dumb enough to try to drive a Hybrid like a sports car, then you get what you deserve.
5) On the subject of guts in a Hybrid, Duke, have you tried out the Lexus RX400h or the Highlander Hybrid? Both would tend to put a damper on your arguements when it comes to performance. - Anonymous
Hybrids are a waste of time and money in my opinion. Besides, gas is very cheap in the U.S. compared to Japan, Europe, etc.
- Cubeman
Hyrbids are not the alternative. A move toward a non oil based fuel source is where we need to be headed. Solar, Hydrogen, Ethanol… we need something renewable to use. Buying an E85 car is the first step in the right direction.
- Jake
Japanese engereering is terrible. There are other ways to solve polution problems rather than making all hybrid vehicles. Although the car itself is putting out less harmful chemicals, think about the energy that is needed to generate electricity. If all cars are running on electricity that means that powerplants will be working double overtime to provide the electricity to run these vehicles. And how do powerplants work? FUEL!!! Powerplants rely on fuel to run, and if the demand for electricity is higher, the amount of polution in the air would increase greatly. It's a fact that foreign cars are generally more difficult to repair and more time consuming. Therefore, the owner would be paying more money because of labor hours and it would be a hastle for both the mechanic and the customer. I strongly believe that GM should not let Toyota buy them out, and they should not let any of there vehicles be designed by foreigners.
- steve k.
I wouldn't own an american car if it was given to me. The quality control of american vehicles is reprehensible. I drive a Lexus and will only drive a Lexus or Toyota. I could care less about the United Auto worker making 80 bucks an hour to churn out worthless american automobiles. The american auto worker is a lazy, greedy slug. Long live the hardworking, dedicated japanese auto worker. Face it Ford, Chevy, Dodge….your product is weak at best. I love my 3 ton Lexus suv which gets 10 MPG. It will long outlast any american piece of garbage.
- Norman
I would have to agree with Steve on the issue that American cars are garbage. Yes, we might say we produce the fastest cars in the world, but who cares. If these low quality sports cars such as corvette need to be repaired all the time what is the point. Quality is why Toyota is going to be number one. If Toyota buys GM it would send shockwaves through this country, and maybe get all the other car companies to produce better cars. Jake how can you say that Japanese engineering is horrible if they are ranked the best quality cars by all the car magazines and consumers themselves. GM should scale down if it wants to compete, and not go bankrupt.
- Anonymous
Hmm lets see i drive a lexus gs350 and so far the windshield has been squeeking since the day i got it. it needed sepentine belts replaced. keep in mind i got it new. and have already went through a tranny because of a computer problem. now lets talk about the amazing toyota quality
- Dave
Its not that the prius is a bad car, and all other toyota hybrids or even hybrids generally speaking. Hybrids are not selling well, and the only people who buy them, are city workers that commute over 100 miles per day. Theres no difference in the performance of the car, but its not the car itself, its the brand logo and name of the company that is on that car.
I drive a 1999 Dodge Intrepid ES. Im a big Dodge Nut, but thats besides that point. If someone were to tell me that you can switch car to a hybrid or a toyota with the same performance and same drive, i surely woudnt do it because i want to drive a Dodge. No ones going to change until they come out with sportier looking hybrids that all the Automobile companies make. Chrysler, Ford, GM. - Robert David
Toyota should buy ford and GM. Solves all the problems and at least the US gets something for it. Or else all Toyota has to do is wait for GM and Ford to go out of business and then they can have the problem of supplying the US of ALL its cars! Go Japan!
- Chris
This is the silliest arguement I'v read in a while. Its actually funny watching people who fully believe in the automaker they like the most. I'm a chevy fan, and thats all I have driven all my life. But if another automaker comes out with something that appeals to my tastes more than the new Camaro, I will buy it. Until then, I'm going to go on my mary way buying the car that BEST suits my tastes.
- jjm
The union is strangling the American auto industry. Share holders, more interested in their investments increasing that our production leaves the states for Mexico and Canada. While our competitors like Honda, Toyota, Nissan, and Volkswagen can profit building here in the US (and employ an American). Lets flatter our competition and copy what they do well.

Cautionary tale on LED rebate
Original post made by JimFruchterman, Old Palo Alto, on Jun 20, 2012
I got zero dollars back. Turns out that the rebate only goes for Energy Star LED lights, and most LED lights don't qualify. I have no idea why a few Philips ones are and most aren't.
So, if you saw the come-on in your utility bill and were rushing for the June 30th deadline, be careful. I completely missed the fine print. This isn't as easy as picking the wattage of the bulbs and toting up your savings.

I was also taken by surprise. Anytime a new LED bulb comes out, I buy a couple, so have a wide variety of bulbs now. usually they don't pass the SAF on CRI or temp. When I recently submitted a bunch of receipts for the PA rebates, I couldn't figure out why I was only getting some rebated. Figured it was a computer glitch at first, so resubmitted twice more. Later they informed me via email that only Energy Star bulbs qualify.
I don't mind spending the extra money, but wish I didn't have to go thru the convoluted hassle of figuring out why some rebates were rejected.
eager to try the new 100w equivalent LEDs.
anyone know of a good resource that identifies the LED chips, and the CRI ratings?
