WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has made clear that his objective in releasing tens of thousands of classified documents was to "end the war in Afghanistan" and "oppose an unjust [war] plan before it reaches implementation." He may well achieve his goal. Assange's illegal disclosures are helping the Taliban to undermine Gen. David Petraeus's counterinsurgency strategy before it has a chance to work.
The documents Assange made public exposed the identities of at least 100 Afghans who were informing on the Taliban–in some cases including the names of their villages, family members, the Taliban commanders on whom they were informing, and even GPS coordinates where they could be found. The Taliban quickly announced that it was combing the WikiLeaks Web site for information to use to punish these Afghans.
Then, just four days after the WikiLeaks documents were published death threats began arriving at the homes of Afghan tribal leaders. A few days later, one such leader was dragged from his home and executed. It is unknown whether his identity was exposed in the WikiLeaks documents, but according to Newsweek, his execution and the death threats "sparked a panic among many Afghans who have worked closely with coalition forces."
A Taliban intelligence officer warned that "the group's English-language media department is actively examining the WikiLeaks material and intends to draw up lists of collaborators in each province, to add to the hit lists of local insurgent commanders." He said that the message being sent to the Afghan people is: "America is not a good protector of spies."
This is a devastating blow to the surge in Afghanistan–all the more so because point No. 1 on the counterinsurgency guidance Petraeus just issued to his troops reads: "Secure and serve the population. . . . Only by providing them security and earning their trust and confidence can the Afghan government and [the International Security Assistance Force] prevail."
In an insurgency, our enemies do not have to persuade the civilian population to join their side to prevail–they simply need to intimidate the population enough to ensure that they do not join our side. This is why, as Petraeus explains in the separate counterinsurgency manual he authored in December 2006, coalition forces must provide "security from insurgent intimidation and coercion . . . informers must be confident that the government can protect them and their families against retribution. . . . Counterinsurgents should not expect people to willingly provide information if insurgents have the ability to violently intimidate sources."
By contrast, Petraeus explains that if security is established "the populace begins to assist [the coalition] more actively. Eventually, the people marginalize and stigmatize insurgents to the point that the insurgency's claim to legitimacy is destroyed." This is precisely what Petraeus did in Iraq. He secured the population, got it to join the fight and marginalized the insurgency.
The Taliban is determined to ensure that Petraeus does not replicate this success in Afghanistan. In June, the Taliban's supreme leader, Mullah Omar, issued new guidance to his troops, directing them to "Capture and kill any Afghan who is supporting and/or working for coalition forces or the Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan" and to "Capture and kill any Afghan women who are helping or providing information to coalition forces." WikiLeaks just made the Taliban's job a lot easier. Indeed, the Taliban could not have come up with a better plan to defeat Petraeus's counterinsurgency strategy. How can Petraeus persuade Afghans to join the fight against the Taliban when WikiLeaks has demonstrated that America cannot protect their identities?
The damage Assange has wreaked extends far beyond Afghanistan. The United States also needs sources in places such as Pakistan, Yemen and East Africa to inform on al-Qaeda and help to prevent new attacks. America needs sources to tell us about the Iranian nuclear program, and other gathering dangers. Why would anyone risk helping America now, after it allowed the identities of more than 100 intelligence sources to be posted on the Internet?
It may be impossible to fully recover from this leak. But to mitigate the damage, the Obama administration must, at a minimum, show that the United States is taking action to ensure that such catastrophic disclosures are not repeated. Assange has threatened to release another 15,000 even more sensitive classified documents. If he is allowed to do so, the message will go forth from Kabul to Peshawar to Aden and beyond that America is powerless to protect those who help us.
Last week, the Pentagon warned that if WikiLeaks does not stand down, the government will "make them do the right thing." WikiLeaks immediately responded with this mocking tweet: "Obnoxious Pentagon spokesperson issues formal threat against WikiLeaks." Then, over the weekend, a WikiLeaks spokesman rejected the Pentagon's demand, declaring, "I can assure you that we will keep publishing documents–that's what we do."
Now the ball is in the Obama administration's court.

By now, most people are familiar with the Los Angeles woman who stupidly got "DRAKE" tattooed on her forehead (if not, check it out). Now, onetime teen heartthrob and former High School Musical rapscallion Zac Efron has unveiled his very own Drizzy tattoo. The tattoo says "YOLO," which is a reference to a Drake mantra and song meaning "You Only Live Once." Sure, it's not on his forehead, but Drake's infectious influence has now infiltrated the Tiger Beat demographic (he'll lose them, of course, when some idiot gets "BIEBER" tattooed on their forehead).

The globe of beer collectibles is a fascinating little corner on the earth that breweriana aficionados and lovers should know a lot more about. One of the lots of collectibles it is possible to uncover include things like bottles and cans, posters from previous eras, openers and, of course, beer steins. With pretty much any of those products you'll find antiques and rarities that could provide a fascinating window into background.
Beer bottles and cans
Beer bottles have improved constantly over the years. "Stubbies" are considered pretty collectible by lots of but you can find also a variety of other dimensions and models. In antique beer bottles, you could find state painted bottles, large and small bottles, too as vintage collectible bottles. From the retail store at beerclassifieds.com, we have even witnessed A few Stooges beer bottles (nyuck, nyuck!)
Equally, several variations towards the beer canning approach through the years have left some classic beer cans of their wake. Some oddball but still really amazing collectible beer cans consist of cone tops and flat tops. We've viewed several beer can collections arrive through our shop containing numerous unopened beer cans from America's - along with the world's - brewing previous.
Beer posters
Several persons are rightly fascinated by beer posters and marketing and advertising within the past. A lot of these posters consist of culturally antiquated concepts (such as racism and sexism, naturally) and you can come across many beer poster advertisements which were very well preserved and make fantastic discussion items on your household or business bar. Many of the most well known posters are within the prohibition and pre-prohibition eras.
Bottle openers even have a fascinating and different past, together with many flat figural bottle openers that has a wide assortment of patterns and embossings. The web bottle openers collectors club referred to as Only for Openers has in excess of 250 members throughout the world.
Beer Steins
Though beer steins are created all over the world in a variety of designs, dimensions and types, one of the most collectible are classified as the initial German lidded steins, the more mature the greater. The earliest beer steins came into use someday in the fifteenth or sixteenth hundreds of years and any stein manufactured prior to the 20th century is extremely covetable.

Udupi Bhavan in Nashua?
- whs May 14, 2012 04:54 PM

- Follow
saw this comment on the Greater Boston board: Our waiter last night (the bald guy) told us Udupi is planning on opening a new place at 295 Daniel Webster Highway in Nashua NH -- a site where we've seen several conventional Indian restaurants come and go. Our waiter says that history worries them, but as we told him, those places were not very good. If Udupi can keep the current quality and service, they should have no problem.
Has anybody else heard about this?
Yes, they'll be there in a couple of weeks, according to the lady who works in an adjacent business. I stopped in for lunch a few days ago, not realizing that the non-vegetarian place it used to be was now closed. Since I love the meat dishes at an Indian restaurant (and that fast-food indian place in the same plaza is pretty lame, i won't waste my money on fast-food Indian when I can get the good stuff just as easily), I can't say I'm thrilled about the change, but I can see that it makes sense to have a veggie indian place in the Nashua area. I guess I'll have to stick to my old favorite Kashmir in Salem, NH when I'l dying for lamb korma!
re: jlsfoodie
If you like northern Indian food, which includes meat dishes, India Palace on Amherst Street is very good.

re: qianning
I hope you are looking at the correct website, I updated it last week whereas I have been busy with the opening process. It is www.udupibhavan.net
re: qianning
We are closed in lowell on Monday's and closed in Nashua on Tuesday's, to better serve our customers we will always have one location open!

Stopped by for lunch today, same menu as the Lowell location with an all you can eat buffet at lunchtime and that also includes a Dosa. Excellent food, hot and tasty and you get a pitcher of water on your table, really good idea wish more restaurants did this. Bright and nice interior, plenty of parking.

Stopped by for lunch today and the buffet is still good with a nice selection of vegetarian food. Everything was nicely labeled but unfortunately most of them was misspelled. I didn't notice anyone familiar and when I was looking at Udupi Bhavan's website I noticed that all references to the Nashua location was gone so I'm assuming that the restaurant has changed owners. Food was still good.
re: Ferrari328
The green Vegetable that you mention in your blog is Drumstick Vegetable. You chew it up and Spit out the fiber. There is flesh on the exterior and in the middle, the leaves are also eaten.

re: Amber181918
we stopped by the Nashua location last night for dinner and it was excellent. We had the samosa, rasa vada (lentil donuts in a lentil soup), dosa, chana masala, aloo gobi.
Everything was very good, but the chana masala and the dosa definitely stood out.. We ate way too much food and got out of there for under $40.

TD-Complete Submission
What to expect when you're expecting (an acceptance letter)
4.14 / 5.00 4,038 Viewsyes thats right, a movie about how idiotic newgrounds users are. This is my first attempt at a comedy flash (after all those serious ones). Ofcourse do not take "THe Newgrounds Idiots" seriously. Im not here to offend anyone. Its only a joke. So please, enjoy the movie.
Update: After reading all 100 comments, I have to say (for those people who are taking this movie very seriously) that most of the events that happened in the movie, happens all the time on newgrounds! I was'nt really expressing MY feelings to you ng users, I was just using common stereotypes (could be true or false) of people or objects (XBOX) at newgrounds, and making fun of those stereotypes. None of the things that happen in the movie are true (sometimes they can be true), or is what i feel towards the "ng idiots" or xbox. It's just what it seems to be when we look at things throughout the internet. So again, im not here to offend anyone. Dont hate me :).
(Also: www.i-mockery.com is one of my favourite sites. It's popinski who hates it! not me!)
People have been asking for some of the music and media used in the movie. Here is a list of my sources and a soundtrack.
1.Uchu Senkan Yamato (trans:Space Ship Yamato) [the song plays at the intro text]
2.The Velvet Underground - Rock n Roll [the music that starts in the beggining when everyone votes]
3.Vangelis - Excalibur theme (O Fortuna) [song plays when the Double dragon brothers starts getting mad.]
Popinski sprite from www.gsarchives.com
All other sprites and backgrounds made by myself. Avaliable at http://macmatoch.digitalrice.com
true true...
many people from NG just know how to complain, people think that only violence and destruction make good themes for movies, and i agree in that and in 2 more parts:
-modern music suck good stuffis from the 80s, heck, 80s, 70s, 60s and even 50s
- Xbox ain't a console, but nintendo is not all that, i think play station rulez
You gotta learn to take reviews.
Now I know that some people say a flash 'sucks' for an arbitrary reason like it isnt interactive. But really. I have owned flash for 2 months and can create something better looking, sounding, and with less suckiness cliché than that. for one, speech bubbles with play buttons are just about the n00biest as its possible to get. Looked like most of the animation was just the same bit of video 'guy walks out of door, over to the left' about 5 times. Also, why the bit of classical music abruptly looping as the good bit kicks in?
Sprites are called shit because they require little effort more than tweening - you dont have to draw anything. I can only forgive it if its for use in a game that's meant to look retro or the sprites were custom drawn for the sake of everything looking pixellated.
That was not artistic, it was badly put together, badlty animated and overall had a terrible point to put across. I've looked at your other flash - you just need to put more time into it. REAL ANIMATION IS TIME CONSUMING TO THE MAX.
I'm not knocking you, just trying to point you in the right direction.
Great concept overall
It's so true. The vast majority of people on this site will vote 0 or BLAM something the split second a movie becomes boring or they feel it lacks violence/humor. Great job overall, you knocked home a winner.
Your attack on the X-Box was lame though. I am by no means an X-Box fanboy, in fact I favor neither Nintendo nor Microsoft (Sony here). But to call it an improper gaming system? Does that even qualify as an insult? There are a bunch of things you could have said in favor of Nintendo that would have made sense, but not that...
I don't understand why you only have a 3.7544 for your score. You should at least have a four with a flash like that. This was some serious humor, dude. The movie is interactive because it allows you to keep on reading when you wish and it has an option, which is kind of a joke in the movie. I definitely like it, 5 Rs to this one!

Ticket #869 (closed defect: worksforme)
Compile libs with -fexception
Reported by: | rblazek | Owned by: | grass-dev@… |
Priority: | normal | Milestone: | 6.5.0 |
Component: | Compiling | Version: | unspecified |
Keywords: | Cc: | rblazek | |
Platform: | Unspecified | CPU: | All |
Description (last modified by neteler) (diff)
I know, I want probably too much. Would it be possible to compile GRASS libraries (at least core libs gis, vect, ...) with -fexception by default?
The problem is, that for example QGIS, sets error routine which throws an exception, everything works (even on Windows) but only if GRASS libs are compiled with -fexception. If -fexception flag is not used, the exception is thrown, but cannot be caught in QGIS and program is terminated.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
My Ultralight font started showing up in Indesign as Regular today when I generated a new version, and I don't know why. This is driving me crazy, but from everything I've read it seems like it should show up as Ultralight. It shows up just fine in TextEdit.
Here's the font info and OT info in FLAB (h-scrolling keeps it readable)
And here's what I get in Indesign and other Adobe apps.
Look in the typowiki for links showing detailed instructions. I just did that for a set that had Regular, Bold and engraved and only regular and engraved would show up. I got them working.
Also… I think besides the fact that you didn't fill all the info out, you have the style name (top pic) above listed as regular.
Hi James,
I had to struggle through this some time ago: you should review the family naming procedures for OT in the manual or elsewhere.
If I remember correctly, you form four-member-only subfamilies for PC, so the Family name (Whateley Light) should be repeated in Menu Name, Fond Name should also be Whateley Ultralight, Mac name should be Whateley Ultralight, no checks in italic and bold checkboxes. Then you have to go to Additional OT names and autogenerate them. That's what's missing in your approach I think.
I think like everyone else I had a nightmare naming my fonts and getting them to work across applications and platforms. I think I finally got to working with the help of Karsten Luecke's PDF on font naming.
I wrote this script to make the naming easier for myself. It works for Thin, Light, Regular, Medium, Bold, Thin It, Light It, It, Medium It, Bold It.
You might be able to use this for your own needs.

You could try enabling 'Use OpenType names as menunames on Mac' in FL's preferences.
Does that help?
You haven´t filled in the Menu and FOND name, that´s why it doesn´t work...
what does "OT Style Name" say if you generate the font and open that generated font in FLS?
Have you cleaned font caches?
Possibly unrelated to your InDesign problem but: This is your UltraLight style as indicated in OT Family Name, PS Font Name and Full Name. However, Family Name is "Whateley Light" and Style Name is "Regular" and Font is italic/Font is bold are unchecked -- so on this level it's effectively "Whateley Light" rather than "Whateley UltraLight". Better rename Family Name to "Whateley UltraLight". Possibly also fill in Mac Name, same content as Full Name.
Toby -- You haven't filled in the Menu and FOND name, that's why it doesn't work...
These names will not go into OT font's name table anyway, so no need to bother.
James, is it part of a bigger family or do you just want this one to work?
Im not a Fontnaming-connaisseur, but I think you also have to set a few things in the 'Additional Opentype Names' section. That section does have something to do with Family and Subfamily names, so I think it could affect your problem. If I recall correctly it was:
Additional Opentype Names -> Press the left button (with the arrow and FI, Import Names) -> it then automatically fills in the fields (if you have filled in the Names sections) -> Check if the first line (1 1 0 0) shows the family name (i.e. Whateley), and then you need to change the second line (2 1 0 0, showing only weight now probably) to whatever you have for Full Name. I.e. Whateley-UltraLight. So it becomes 2 1 0 0 Whateley-UltraLight.
But make sure you have your normal Naming right (see Karsten's post above), otherwise te data that is automatically generated when you press the import button is also wrong.
This comes from that MSN Groups post about Naming posted by Adam Twardoch. If the Additional Opentype Names alone doesn't help, start from step 1 from that MSN Group tutorial.
If you make a change to a font name be sure to delete the font caches before you re-test the font.
I have read Karsten and Adam's font naming guides and this font was done using Karsten's examples. And I have blasted the font caches repeatedly.
You could try enabling 'Use OpenType names as menunames on Mac' in FL's preferences.
Already done.
what does "OT Style Name" say if you generate the font and open that generated font in FLS?
UltraLight. That's why I don't understand seeing "Regular" in there.
James, is it part of a bigger family or do you just want this one to work?
It's part of a family. And this has worked before.
> That's why I don't understand seeing "Regular" in there.
Well, I see 'Regular' as the Style Name in your first screenshot?
Also make sure to check the Additional OT Names section I mentioned earlier, I had a few times that a wrong style name was still hidden in there (or missing where it should be).
Well, I see 'Regular' as the Style Name in your first screenshot?
So that isn't required to be Regular/Bold/Italic/Bold Italic? I thought putting other stuff in there breaks things. And even if I do change it to Ultralight Fontlab changes that to regular when I generate the font.
And Additional Opentype Names is empty.
I don't know if it's required, as I said, I'm not really an export on the Naming conventions. ;)
However, Additional Opentype Names shouldn't be empty; use Adam Twardoch's how-to on that MSN Group. If it's currently empty, I suspect that's where the problem is at, since it contains data on family naming. Check the how-to from step 9 of the 'OpenType (PostScript- or TrueType-based)' part, or just start from the beginning. :)
Quincunx -- If I recall correctly it was:
These manual steps were required only in FL4. In FLS5 there are two export preferences, (Arthur said this above:) "Use the OpenType names be used as menu names on the Macintosh" and "Use PostScript FontName as FullName on Windows". The second must be activated, the first one should be.
James, I think you should auto-generate "Additional Opentype Names", click the diamond. See my previous post ...
Edit: Too late, Quincrux is right, I think
It should also work without filling out the Additional OpenType Names. So the problem must be somewhere else.
Have you selected this option from the pulldown menu?
I'm not immediately seeing the cause of this problem here, but I can make a few comments and a suggestion for further actions.
The "Additional OpenType Names" field is needed if the OpenType family (nameID 16) or subfamily (nameID 17) are to be different than the Windows family (nameID 1) and subfamily (nameID 2). They are indeed going to be different in this case, so they are needed.
The Windows family is what FontLab calls "Family Name" on the first screen. That should be set to Whately UltraLight, not Whately Light. However, this shouldn't cause the problem you're seeing, I don't think.
Whatever family members you are working with, you should put them in a folder together and run the Adobe "CompareFamily" tool on them to see if it pops out any interesting warnings about naming issues either on individual fonts or across the family. If you don't have the AFDKO installed, I'd be willing to do that for you, but I'd need to have the fonts.
And if this still doesn't work, perhaps its a font cache problem, or you might have a conflicting name in the TrueType Unique ID Field of the font header.
Those screenshots don't show OpenType Specific Names? Thomas said they are also needed. Personally I always fill those out too.
Those were the names used and everything worked fine. Nothing else is needed. My second screen shot shows OpenType Specific Names so I don't know what you are referring to.
Why not try it for yourself?
Sorry, I meant Additional OpenType Names. :)
No need to fill in Non-English or special font names:[name] table. I think that is what you mean by Additional OpenType names.
No, it's a seperate section under 'Names and Copyright' (below OpenType-specific Names). But if it works without it, I guess it's fine. But Thomas Phinney posted earlier that they might be needed in some cases.
I always fill them in, it's only a few seconds work.
I believe se are talking about the same thing, and if everything else is filled out properly there is no reason to fill this in.
Thanks for the help, all. Karsten checked out the files and found that the problem was in other members of the family, which was confusing Indesign.
In the future I think that I'll assign different family names to each weight and version of my fonts so that I don't make a mess out of things when testing iterations of my designs.
At the end you would expect something like this in the Naming Table:
And in the CFF Name INDEX something like this:
These are screen dumps of DTL OTMaster (OTM), a sophisticated application with a graphical user interface for opening, reviewing, editing and saving tables and glyphs of fonts with a snft file structure, as there are CFF and TTF flavoured OpenType fonts, TrueType fonts and TrueType Collection fonts. OTM is developed by URW++ and the Dutch Type Library and will be released for Mac OS X, Windows and Linux shortly.
By the way, the use of the Windows Full name string / PostScript FontName for the Compatible Full entry here, is a suggestion by Karsten Luecke in the OTM manual, of which he is the author.
The way the entries for the Name Table and CFF Name INDEX are displayed in the dialogs, further interpreted and stored by font editors, differs. In DTL FontMaster the naming information is stored in a text file (UFM), separately from the glyph data. The most common Name ID entries are supported by the UFM dialogs, but all entries can be added directly to the UFM file, like this:
TTName 0 1 0 0 "Copyright Dutch Type Library, 1993-2009. All rights reserved."; #Macintosh

These entries supersede any related name strings in the rest of the UFM file. The UFM files are connected by file names to the glyph data and can be freely altered and copied and connected to other glyph databases. This way renaming and using the name table entries for other font files is fairly simple. More information on this subject can be found here.
The suggestions from James (terminaldesign) seem sound to me. For the relevant name IDs, they should produce the values shown in Frank Blokland's posting. (I didn't look at all IDs, just the ones in relevant to the problem area, specifically: 1, 2, 4, 6, 16, 17 and 18.)

BYU freshman Alohi Robins-Hardy has shown the potential to be a threat on both basketball and volleyball courts.
With Jennifer Hamson ending her collegiate sports career in Dec. 2014 by leading the BYU women's volleyball team to the National Championship game, it seemed like it would be a few years before BYU saw another multi-sport star. But while Hamson has made her way out, Robins-Hardy has just arrived.

Treating cystic fibrosis in first 6 months appears most effective, Australian study finds
FRIDAY, Dec. 5 (HealthDay News) -- It may be possible to control the progression of cystic fibrosis through early detection and aggressive treatment of the disease in infants, according to Australian researchers.
They found that progressive lung damage in CF patients can start as early as infancy, even though lung function shortly after diagnosis is normal. The finding challenges current scientific belief.
The study included 68 infants with CF, ages 6 weeks to 30 months, who were compared to a control group of 49 infants without the disease. At 6 months of age, infants with CF had significantly poorer lung function than those in the control group, and that difference increased with each month of age. This shows that lung function in infants with CF declines sooner than previously thought, the researchers said.
They also found that diminished lung function occurred even when there were no clinical symptoms and irrespective of CF genotype.
The most significant finding was that infants with CF had normal lung function test results shortly after birth and within their first six months of life, the researchers said.
"We might be able to stop some of the lung function reduction we're identifying in the first months of life," study author Dr. Sarath Ranganathan, a consultant respiratory physician at the Royal Children's Hospital in Melbourne, said in an American Thoracic Society news release. "We don't know what's going to work, but we have to target those patients in the first six months of life if we're going to be effective."
The study, published in the second issue for December of the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, validates the early-screening approach used in Australia and indicates that other nations should adopt similar programs, the researchers said.

I have to comment on this!!!!
At CV thursday - Dean and I went thru my MXC - although close by my throw gauge - the unit that he had made it that much better. I mean the cross throw validation along with the mixing made it spot on!!! The control horns although made from the same mold, and you can use a verneer caliper for the control rods - there is still a variance from the TX menus/setups. That MXC on its first flight was wonderful!!! I'm sure that this unit made a significant difference in the planes initial flight!!!! Furthermore if you have an aircraft at 4600' and its veering off course is it because of the setup or the winds aloft - at least with this device you can mitigate the setup as a factor. I would be willing to go in part for our SVSS guys to share, as it's mainly required for the initial setup, repairs or maint. So with you me, and Bill thats a three way split JLMK! jack ~ |

S/N #3 has over 600 contest cross country miles, has had a midair, been attacked by a dog on a ROG launch resulting in a broken tailboom. You think about moving on to the next one but has treated me so well I have to give back.
The stab pivot point is a carbon rod joiner going through a brass tube in the fuselage. There was always slop in the area as the carbon rod diameter is .248" and the is at least.250". I machined a bushing from 1/2" aluminum stock reaming the ID to .2485. New fin post and refitted stab made it look new again. Regards Dean ImagesView all Images in thread

Go back to the post about what servo's I use and you will find for my MXC's I have always used JR 9411 for flaps (plenty strong). Greg got confused.
If you loose sight such as in the sun or too high I loop the MXC. This has happened many, many times and have never overstressed the plane. You cannot do what is common with the SBXC by applying crow and putting the right stick in a bottom corner. The MXC will go into a sprial dive using this method. This should be practiced at home before you need it. Regards Dean |

I'm sure I pull the stick all the way back as I'm kinda in a panic mode. The key is to not wait too long. Usually goes like this-"I lost it, going to loop it" so the crew knows to be searching.
I don't do this when in a thermal turn and is not visible for just a moment. There is where faith works. Used for sun and too high. Regards Dean |

The corner protectors are from Ace Hardware. Prior to going to Cal Valley I installed a different wing on my backup ship s/n #4. This wing had the servo cutouts as far back as possible. My thinking was to have the least amount of linkage exposed. The servo to be used would be JR378's. After getting a MKS servo in my hands I decided that should be the one. This plane and MKS servos were put to the test on day two and three at Cal Valley and worked well. Recently I found out the servo is intolerant to higer voltages like the LIFE batteries I'm now using. ImagesView all Images in thread

Day one at Cal Valley I displayed complete lack of airmanship. Overspeeding the glider to destruction.
At the time I just wanted to gather the parts throw them in the box and try to forget about it. At home I began salvaging components and discovered what actually happened. What happened to my glider is what I believe has destroyed most if not all high altitude blowups. The left wings servos (flap and aileron) and control horns were ripped free of the wing structure. Flutter did it and it was the first thing that occured. After the wing exploded it bent backwards breaking the fuselage in three pieces. The left stab was sheared off the aft fuselage section. Regards Dean |

Wacom's update to its Intuos line of digitizing tablets is the best yet: Beautifully designed with useful ergonomic enhancements.
The (somewhat hard to see) button in the middle of the Touch Ring toggles through four different positions, each indicated by the dot you see to its right.

MSI Introduces the X99S MPOWER Motherboard
Category: MotherboardsPosted: November 5, 2014 09:04PM
Author: bp9801
MSI, one of the top manufacturers of motherboards throughout the world, has a new high-end entry for Intel's Haswell-E processors. Dubbed the MSI X99S MPOWER, this motherboard is a custom-designed overclocking beast, and is the big brother of the X99S XPOWER AC. The MPOWER features Military Class 4 components to help with overclocking, which is a good thing considering the board was used to break 26 records at the recent MOA 2014 contest. It is also OC Certified, which means it has passed a 24-hour Prime95 test with an overclocked CPU and no airflow. A new and improved OC Engine to help generate more flexible bClk overclocking is also on the MPOWER, so you won't have to be concerned with system crashes during an intense overclocking attempt.
Along with all these overclocking enhancements, the MSI X99S MPOWER comes with support for DDR4-3333 RAM; Quad Multi-GPUs; OC Essentials like V-Check Points 2, Go2BIOS, and DirectOC buttons; Turbo M.2 32Gb/s, SATA Express, Audio Boost, and Gigabit LAN.
Not to be outdone by its new flagship, MSI also updated the X99S GAMING 9 AC and Z97 GAMING 9 AC with ACK. The two ACK-equipped boards carry an easy-to-remember name, as you simply add the 'K' to the end of 'AC'. ACK is a new wireless solution by Killer DoubleShot Pro to help deliver up to 3.5 times lower latency and 2.9 times faster data throughput compared to a traditional Wireless-N setup. It allows for a wired connection to handle a gaming connection and wireless for everything else, with MSI saying both can work together for speeds up to 1.867Gbps.
The MSI X99S MPOWER, X99S GAMING 9 ACK, and Z97 GAMING 9 ACK should all be available soon, although no prices or release dates were mentioned at this time.

Biostar Releases the Hi-Fi A88W FM2+ Motherboard
Category: MotherboardsPosted: February 12, 2014 10:25PM
Author: tpsreport
One of the oldest names in motherboards is back at it again. Biostar's new Hi-Fi A88W FM2+ motherboard is based on the AMD FM2+ socket to support AMD multi-core socket FM2+/FM2 processors, AMD A-series, and E3-series processors. The motherboard has four DIMM DDR3 slots capable of memory speeds up to 2600+ MHz, two PCI-E 3.0 x16, two PCI-E x1, two PCI legacy slots, several USB 2.0 front headers, a single USB 3.0 front header, and eight SATA 6GB/s ports. The rear I/O has dual USB 3.0 ports, four USB 2.0 ports, a Gigabit Ethernet, VGA, DVI, HDMI, PS/2 port and 7.1 surround sound audio jacks.
The highlights of the motherboard have to be the AMD A88X chipset, which features Biostar Puro Hi-Fi 3D technology for audio enhancement. One aspect of the audio enhancement is a built-in amplifier that "can drive major high-end headphones with over 100dB loads and up to 600 ohm impedance." The technology also provides "higher audio output of 24bit/192KHz than the 16 bit/48KHz from the normal MB" for superior sound quality. Another feature is that the board is made of 100% X.D.C solid capacitors and uses a moisture-proof PCB to ensure durability.
The only things not known are the availability date and price.

New Mini-ITX Board Available From MSI
Category: MotherboardsPosted: February 7, 2014 02:26PM
Author: Tobias Thydal
When building a home theater PC (HTPC), the criteria are usually a small size, low noise production and longevity. MSI's new J1800 aims at fulfilling those criteria.
The low TDP is achieved by using a Intel Celeron J1800, which has integrated graphics. This chip allows for passive cooling to reduce noise production. The board supports up to two sticks of DDR3 RAM, and it can handle up to a total of 8 GB at speeds of 1066/1333 MHz. The audio is handled by a Realtek ALC887 chipset; however, if that is not good enough, the board has a PCI-Express 2.0 x1 slot available for a sound card. There are two SATA 3 Gb/s ports to handle storage. This might be a bottle neck for some SSDs, but it should not make a world of difference, and since this board is not meant for insane performance it does make somewhat sense. Connectivity on the inside includes a 4-pin CPU fan connector even though the chip is passively cooled as well as a 4-pin system fan connector. So if one is not sure about only using passive cooling, it is possible to add a couple of fans. On the back there is both a PS/2 keyboard and mouse port, a USB 3.0 port, two USB 2.0 ports, and 3 audio jacks. As for graphic outputs, there is a VGA port that supports a maximum resolution of 2560x1600, a DVI-D port that supports a maximum resolution of 2560x1600, and an HDMI port that supports a maximum resolution of 1920x1200.
To ensure the longevity of the board, MSI has used its Military Class 4 components, which include dark chokes for better power stability and effeciency, and solid CAPs for longer lifetime, lower ESR, and low temperature.
It should be noted that this board only supports Windows 8 and 8.1, which may deter some potential buyers, but Windows 8 and 8.1 offers Fast Boot, which can prove to be quite nice for an HTPC.

A new economic club of nations
The G-20 summit this weekend will grapple with a global crisis.
Chris Fitzgerald/Candidate Photos
A formal farewell to the American-led postwar financial system and a coming-out party for an expanded club of economic powers that will design new rules to meet the global financial crisis.
That is how this weekend's Group of 20 summit, called by President Bush, is likely to be remembered: not so much for the action taken, as for the milestone it marked and the emerging global economic order it heralded.
"The summit marks a more inclusive form of international cooperation" in dealing with the global economy, says Sebastian Mallaby, director of geoeconomic studies at the Council on Foreign Relations in Washington. After decades of a handful of leaders from the richest economies meeting to address the world economy, "just the creation of the G-20 at head-of-state level will be the first accomplishment."
One reason that the Washington summit, which begins Friday with a White House dinner, is not expected to reach any significant accords for addressing a deepening economic meltdown is that American leadership is in limbo. Mr. Bush invited President-elect Barack Obama to attend, but Mr. Obama declined, sticking to the long-held tradition of "one president at a time."

As the sport of Formula One racing grew ever more technically demanding, so the practice of testing grew in importance. The old principle of tinkering with an instinctively designed car has long since been superseded by systematic testing of every major component and structure - both before and after the car is fully built and ready to race.
Much of this testing work happens unseen, deep within the constructors' factories and wind tunnel facilities. Once cars are assembled the more conspicuous type of testing begins, out on race tracks with real drivers at the wheel. This is where a car's fundamental abilities can be properly assessed for the first time - in the past, many cars that look great 'on paper' turned out to perform poorly on the track. But track testing - much of it now done during Friday practice at Grands Prix - is also where the steady evolution that happens to all Formula One cars during the course of their life begins, a constant improvement of tiny details and set-up.
By midway through the first decade of the 21st century, a typical Formula One testing programme had become a major exercise in both manpower and logistics, with many teams using multiple test drivers to take a share of the burden away from the race drivers. Conscious of the spiraling costs, which invariably resulted in development invisible and meaningless to fans, Formula One racings governing body began to impose increasingly stringent testing restrictions.
In 2008 the regulations were amended to limit each constructor to 30,000km of testing per season, the majority done during multi-team tests (normally three days in duration) at FIA-approved racetracks around Europe, where any team could elect to pay a portion of the costs and to bring its cars. In addition, teams also operated closed sessions where they could trial top-secret future machinery or innovations.
The testing allowance was slashed to 15,000km in 2009, with in-season testing banned, effectively limiting teams to just a handful of pre-season tests in February and March.
From 2014 onwards, along with the pre-season tests, teams may participate in four two-day post-event tests at tracks which have just hosted races. However, despite this relative increase in track time, windtunnel testing and CFD simulation work have both been heavily restricted and so the three hours of practice on Grand Prix Fridays remains highly valuable.
