Should I take some mini ITX moterboard and later on add a SATA controller? What would be the best OS to handle my requirements?

I'm not sure I understood you correctly... If it has dual core Atom, it can't have 1155 socket at the same time. So there is no point in going ITX and putting in standard 1155 because I'd still have same power consumption but less SATA ports, I guess. However, would you recommend any specific ITX board?

Other than the HDD's and the case (only real expenses), it's surprising what you can get away with on something that was originally going for scrap. For what you need, you might consider recycling what may already be available for a lot less money

What are the laws in WA regarding tall bamboo growing?
I'm also looking for the right species. Hopefully one no taller than 30 feet. Spreading is fine, as I will be growing it in a container. (An OLD bathtub that will be buried)
I'm wondering though, is it okay for me to do this? Is anyone going to have a problem? I am on 20 acre farmland in northwest WA.
Do your neighbors care how tall your trees get? While some people are irrationally afraid of bamboo, and some neighborhood associations can control what you plant, I know of no State or even local governmental laws in Washington that will prevent you from planting whatever you want as far as bamboo is concerned...and I've been growing mine here in the Puget Sound area for many years.
Old bathtub ?
That's not going to drain adequately. You could pay someone to cut the bottom out of it, but seems like there are so many better garden uses for an old bathtub.
While the bathtub is a unique idea, I think there are much easier ways. Learn a little more about controlling the bamboo, and you'll be a lot happier. The horror stories you hear have been caused by folks that just didn't care and stuck something tall there to get fast privacy, knowing they were moving in a few years anyway.

I live on a farm where neighbors shouldn't be an issue. The bathtub is (Actually there are two) old junk that has been sitting there for years. One of them is a style that would be easy to build up a couple feet with brick. (which is also laying around) I'm trying utilize junk as well as clean up the property..
How tall do you think moso bamboo will get in such restraints?
What else could I use as barriers? (I know they sell rhizome barriers, but free while cleaning up the property is preferred) I also have a few 50 gallon barrels that I was thinking smaller varieties could tolerate well..

Mangrove river. Aerial photograph of a river that is flowing through a mangrove forest covering each bank. Mangrove trees grow in shallow, muddy water along sheltered tropical and subtropical estuaries and coastlines. They have tangled masses of roots that help to bind mud particles together. By this binding process, mangrove trees help the formation of new land and also help prevent coastal erosion. Photographed on Ibo Island, Mozambique.
Science Photo Library was founded in 1981 by Michael Marten, one of the authors of "Worlds Within Worlds", a book exploring different ways to observe the universe - from electron micrographs, to images of earthrise taken from the Apollo spacecraft. When Marten started receiving requests for the beautiful images in the book, he had an idea of setting up Science Photo Library. Since then, Science Photo Library has continued to work alongside world acclaimed photographers and the leading science and medical experts to provide a central source of the best science and specialist imagery available. Although the collection started with scientific images, it has grown to encompass all aspects of science and their impact on everyday life.

Related Strips: #400: Diarrhea of the Dead, Part One; #408: She's Angry
There was going to be a little bit more to this strip, but I ran out of time, so you'll get the next few panels in the next strip instead, I guess! (They cut forward to Halloween anyway, so it's probably just as well.)
So! You know I have T-shirts and mini-posters for sale in the Multiplex Store, right? Well, did you know that you get a free button with every order? No, of course not, because I never told anybody. Well, you do, and now you know.
But, just because I feel like it, any T-shirt orders through Monday will get four free buttons, instead. (That's per T-shirt, so if you want eight buttons, order two shirts!)
They'll just be random ones (although Jackson, my trust fulfillment guy, will try to include a couple of Multiplex character buttons in there), and there are a whole bunch of buttons.
My friend, Theater Hopper creator and Triple Feature co-host Tom Brazelton made them for me, didn't you know?

Leonard Nimoy (1931–2015)
Sunday, March 1, 2015
I was never a huge Star Trek fan, exactly. I love some of the early episodes, and I think Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan is one of the greatest
science fiction movies of all time. I enjoyed Star Trek III and IV, too, for what they were. I read a bunch of the DC Comics Star Trek stuff at that time, because my brother bought them. And I watched a bit of the Next Generation and then fell off the wagon. Kirk and Spock were my Star Trek, and the Star Trek 2–4 "era" was its peak for me, warts and all, because that's the "era" that really hooked me. And really, for me, it was all about Wrath of Khan.
In addition to playing Mr. Spock, of course, Leonard Nimoy did a lot of other things. He was on Mission: Impossible. He directed a few movies (Three Men and a Baby!). He was a photographer. He was the voice of Civilization IV. But one thing I really loved of his was Standby: Lights, Camera, Action, on Nickelodeon from 1982–1987, which provided a behind the scenes look at movies like Star Trek III, Return of the Jedi, 2010, and more. Nimoy hosted and occasionally interviewed guests like George Lucas. As a budding film nerd in the pre-Internet Dark Ages, behind the scenes specials like Standby: Lights, Camera, Action were hard to come by. I ate that show up.
Anyway, as you're undoubtedly aware by now, Leonard Nimoy passed away on the 27th. As cartoonists do when they're sad about these kinds of things, I drew a picture:

Pakistan Trying to Verify Taliban Leader's Death
August 7, 2009 - 5:43 AMPakistan's foreign minister says he has received intelligence information that Pakistan's Taliban chief Baitullah Mehsud was killed in a missile strike, but that authorities were heading to the area for verification.
Shah Mahmood Qureshi told reporters in Islamabad on Friday that "to be 100 percent sure, we are going for ground verification."
Three Pakistani intelligence officials said earlier Friday that Mehsud had been killed in a U.S. missile strike Wednesday and that he had been buried. But one of the three said no intelligence agent had actually seen his body.
Mehsud has led a violent campaign of suicide attacks and assassinations against the Pakistani government. If confirmed, his demise would be a major boost to Pakistani and U.S. efforts to eradicate the Taliban and al-Qaida.
Mehsud has al-Qaida connections and has been suspected in the killing of former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto. Pakistan views him as its top internal threat and has been preparing an offensive against him.
For years, the U.S. has considered Mehsud a lesser threat to its interests than some of the other Pakistani Taliban, their Afghan counterparts and al-Qaida, because most of his attacks were focused inside Pakistan, not against U.S. and NATO troops in Afghanistan.
That view appeared to change in recent months as Mehsud's power grew and concerns mounted that increasing violence in Pakistan could destabilize the U.S. ally and threaten the entire region.
But while Mehsud's death would be a big blow to the Taliban in Pakistan, he has deputies who could take his place. Whether a new leader could wreak as much havoc as Mehsud depends largely on how much pressure the Pakistani military continues to put on the network, especially in the lawless tribal area of South Waziristan.
The Pakistani intelligence officials said Mehsud was killed in a missile strike Wednesday on the home of his father-in-law and that his body was buried in the village of Nardusai in South Waziristan, not far from the site of the strike.
The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly.
One official said he had seen a classified intelligence report stating Mehsud was dead and buried, but that agents had not seen the body as the area was under Taliban control.
Pakistani Interior Minister Rehman Malik said he could confirm the death of Mehsud's wife but not of the Taliban leader himself, although information pointed in that direction.
"I can confirm to the extent that his wife is dead, and probably one of his brothers, but we do not have any ... evidence that he's dead," Malik told reporters outside Parliament. But he added: "Yes, lot of information is pouring in from that area that he's dead, but I'm unable to confirm unless I have solid evidence."
A security official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue, said "about 70 percent" of the information pointed to Mehsud's being dead, but authorities had not yet been able to confirm this. He said authorities had not recovered a body.
Another senior Pakistani intelligence official said phone and other communications intercepts -- he would not be more specific -- had led authorities to suspect Mehsud was dead, but he also stressed there was no definitive evidence yet.
An American counterterrorism official said the U.S. government was also looking into the reports. The official indicated the United States did not yet have physical evidence -- remains -- that would prove who died. But he said there are other ways of determining who was killed in the strike. He declined to describe them.
Both officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak on the matter publicly.
A local tribesman, who also spoke on condition his name not be used, said Mehsud had been at his father-in-law's house being treated for kidney pain, and had been put on a drip by a doctor, when the missile struck. The tribesman claimed he attended the Taliban chief's funeral.
Last year, a doctor for Mehsud announced the militant leader had died of kidney failure, but the reports turned out to be false.
In March, the State Department authorized a reward of up to $5 million for the militant chief. And increasingly, American missiles fired by unmanned drones have focused on Mehsud-related targets.
Pakistan publicly opposes the missile strikes, saying they anger local tribes and make it harder for the army to operate. Still, many analysts suspect the two countries have a secret deal allowing the strikes.
Malik, the interior minister, said Pakistan's military was determined to finish off the Taliban in the country.
"I have already said that it is a targeted operation; it is a targeted law enforcement action against Baitullah Mehsud's group and it will continue till Baitullah Mehsud's group is eliminated forever," he said.
Pakistan's record on putting pressure on the Taliban network is spotty. It has used both military action and truces to try to contain Mehsud over the years, but neither tactic seemed to work, despite billions in U.S. aid aimed at helping the Pakistanis tame the tribal areas.
Mehsud was not that prominent a militant when the U.S. invaded Afghanistan in 2001 after the Sept. 11 attacks, according to Mahmood Shah, a former security chief for the tribal regions. In fact, Mehsud has struggled against such rivals as Abdullah Mehsud, an Afghan war veteran who had spent time in Guantanamo Bay.
But a February 2005 peace deal with Mehsud appeared to give him room to consolidate and boost his troop strength. Within months of that accord, dozens of pro-government tribal elders in the region were gunned down on his command.
In December 2007, Mehsud became the head of a new coalition called the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan, or Pakistan's Taliban movement. Under his guidance, the group killed hundreds of Pakistanis in suicide and other attacks.
Analysts say the reason for Mehsud's rise in the militant ranks is his alliances with al-Qaida and other violent groups. U.S. intelligence has said al-Qaida has set up its operational headquarters in Mehsud's South Waziristan stronghold and neighboring North Waziristan.
Mehsud has no record of attacking targets in the West, although he has threatened to attack Washington.
However, he is suspected of being behind a 10-man cell arrested in Barcelona in January 2008 for plotting suicide attacks in Spain. Pakistan's former government and the CIA have named him as the prime suspect behind the December 2007 killing of Bhutto, the former Pakistani prime minister. He has denied a role.
He also has withstood threats from within Taliban ranks. A few weeks ago, Qari Zainuddin, the leader of a renegade Pakistani Taliban faction who had criticized Mehsud's tactics, was shot dead -- allegedly on Mehsud's orders.
Munir Ahmad reported from Islamabad. Associated Press writers Nahal Toosi and Elena Becatoros in Islamabad, and Pamela Hess in Washington, D.C., contributed to this report.

A syslog transport for winston that uses posix
A Syslog transport for winston using posix.
Installing winston-syslog
$ npm install winston $ npm install winston-posix-syslog
The winston-syslog transport is amazing, but it only capable of communicating with syslog using udp or tcp. I needed something in my environment that uses the C bindings.
To use the PosixSyslog transport in winston, you simply need to require it and then either add it to an existing winston logger or pass an instance to a new winston logger:
var winston = require'winston'; var PosixSyslog = require'winston-posix-syslog'PosixSyslog; winstonaddPosixSyslog options; winston.log'info' 'I AM the one who knocks.';
The PosixSyslog transport takes the following options:
- identity: The name of the application (Default:
- facility: Syslog facility to use (Default:
- cons: Write directly to system console if there is an error while sending to system logger (Default:
- ndelay: Open the connection immediately (Default:
- pid: Include PID with each message (Default:
- nowait: Don't wait for child processes that may have been created while logging the message (Default:
- odelay: Opening of the connection is delayed until syslog() is called (Default:
Log Levels
Because syslog only allows a subset of the levels available in winston, levels that do not match will be ignored. Therefore, in order to use
winston-posix-syslog effectively, you should indicate to winston that you want to use the syslog levels:
var winston = require'winston'; winstonsetLevelswinstonconfigsysloglevels;
PosixSyslog transport will only log to the level that are available in the syslog protocol. These are (in increasing order of severity):
- debug
- info
- notice
- warn
- error
- crit
- alert

Comment: Re:No surprise... (Score 1) 114
Are you kidding?
Yes, some, usually large, companies have very competent engineering teams doing embedded work. Often, they're some of the smartest guys around(although IMHO the Verilog guys are smarter on average...YMMV). Then there are hoardes of engineers around them who do most of the integration, grunt work, bug fixing, etc. Their work is usually not thoroughly inspected by the smart guys.
Then you have the thousands of small companies doing embedded development. They usually have one guy who is somewhat competent but needs to be fluent in everything from hardware bringup to adding a web configuration dialog. These are the guys that do things like try to stick ubuntu on their ARM board. These guys usually do not have a very comprehensive view of security, and even if they did they don't have the time or the budget to do it right.
If I had a nickle for every company I've worked for who just wanted to integrate off the shelf(usually FOSS) components together and ship it as soon as it was barely functional...

Other Opinions: How do we reduce partisanship?
There are times when Congress and much of the political class in Washington remind me of a child who can't resist sneaking a handful of cookies from the jar: They know that too much partisanship is getting them in trouble, but they can't help themselves. Politicians want one more maneuver to make the other side look bad; one more hunk of red meat tossed to the party's base; one more legislative stand-off to show their partisans they mean what they say.

[0001] This invention relates to multiple-wire cables, and more particularly to high frequency transmission cables.
[0002] Certain demanding applications require miniaturized multi-wire cable assemblies. To avoid undesirably bulky cables when substantial numbers of conductors are required, very fine conductors are used. To limit electrical noise and interference at high signal frequencies, conductors are generally shielded. A typical approach employs fine coaxial wires, which are bundled in a cable. Each wire includes its own shield, which provides suitable protection against interference at high frequencies.
[0003] While adequate, multiple coaxial assemblies have several disadvantages. The manufacturing cost of fine coaxial wiring is higher than is acceptable for many applications. The mode of terminating very fine coaxial wire is complex and expensive, and the overall size of a coax bundle can be too large for some applications due to the required spacing between central conductors and outer shields.
[0004] For low-voltage differential signal (LVDS) communication, twisted pair wiring has been used effectively. However, for the finest gauge wires and for high frequencies required in certain applications, twisted pair wires have critical limitations. One problem is that when twisted pairs are bundled together and surrounded by a suitable conductive shield layer, they have different electrical characteristics with respect to the shield. Some pairs will inevitably be closer to the shield than are others, resulting in common mode impedance differences or signal skew as signals via different pairs arrive at different times. Such skew limits usable signal rates, a particular concern with very small conductors needed for slim, flexible cables requiring a multitude of lines.
[0005] The present invention overcomes the limitations of the prior art by providing a cable assembly. The cable assembly has a central core element with a central conductor surrounded by an insulating core sheath having a uniform wall thickness. A plurality of twisted pairs of wires surround the core element, abutting each other and the core to form a tube concentric with an axis defined by the center of the core, a conductive shield layer surrounds the twisted pairs and is uniformly spaced apart therefrom.
[0006]FIG. 1 is a cut-away perspective view of a cable assembly according to a preferred embodiment of the invention.
[0007]FIG. 2 is a cut-away perspective view of a cable assembly component according to the preferred embodiment of the invention. FIG. 3 is a sectional end view of a cable assembly according to the preferred embodiment of the invention.
[0008]FIG. 1 shows a flexible cable assembly 10 for high frequency signal or high speed data transmission. The cable includes a core 12, a set of twisted pair wires 14 helically wrapped about the core, and an outer sheath portion 16.
[0009] The core has a central conductor 20 surrounded by a core sheath 22. In the preferred embodiment, the central conductor is a 22 AWG single strand copper conductor, and the core sheath is a polymer (such as PVC) sheath with a uniform wall thickness of 0.014 inch. The uniformity of the wall thickness ensures concentricity of the conductor and the outer surface of the sheath.
[0010] The twisted pair wires 14 each include two helically twisted wires insulated from each other and encased in a conformal pair sheath as will be discussed below. Nine twisted pairs are provided, although this number may vary without limitation depending on the needs of the particular application. Each twisted pair sheath has a diameter of 0.030 inch, which allows each to abut the surface of the core throughout its entire length, and to abut each adjacent pair sheath. This ensures that each pair is kept at the same controlled distance from the core conductor, and from the adjacent pairs. When it is indicated that the pairs abut each other, this means that their outer sheaths abut each other. This also includes instances in which the pairs abut spacers arranged between them, so that the pairs are evenly spaced about the core, whether by the contact of their own sheaths, or by contact of their sheaths with common spacers.
[0011] In the preferred embodiment, the pairs wrap helically about the core. The wrap angle results in each pair making one full wrap about the core over a cable length of 2.0 inches. The wrap angle may vary slightly to accommodate variations in pair sheath diameter and core sheath diameter. If the pairs were sized to abut each other and the core, a slight variance of the pair diameter above nominal, or of the core diameter below nominal would cause at least one pair to be forced away from abutment with the core. However, an intended slight under-sizing of the pairs (and/or over-sizing of the core) prevents this problem. In this case, the expected gapping between pairs that would occur if they were parallel to the core is prevented by helically wrapping them. The degree of the wrap angle is in effect determined by the geometry of the pairs and core, with the wrap angle increasing (and the length for one full helical revolution of a pair decreasing) for smaller pair diameters.
[0012] Several tension cords 24 also surround the core. The cords are sized to occupy at least some of the interstices formed between an adjacent pair of pairs and the underlying core surface. Such interstices are essentially elongated tubes having somewhat triangular cross sections, and which helically wrap about the core at the wrap angle of the pairs. The cords are small unbraided lines of high strength non-conductive material (such as nylon) having multiple filaments, and are wrapped about the core with adequate tension to slightly compress the core, and to maintain some residual tension after manufacturing. This residual tension ensures that the tensile forces generated in response to stretching of the finished cable are borne by and resisted by the cords, and not by the more delicate twisted pairs. Essentially, the preferred embodiment is rated to withstand a tension of 50 pounds, and the cords ensure that under this tension, the cable does not stretch excessively.
[0013] The twisted pairs are helically wrapped by a single band of thin tape 26 that holds the pairs against the core during intermediate manufacturing stages, and throughout the life of the cable. The tape is slightly tensioned to bias the pairs against the core, and to prevent gapping when the cable is flexed during usage. The tape is a low-friction fluoropolymer film having a thickness of 0.004 inch. With a tape width of 0.50 inch, and an outside diameter of the pair and core bundle of 0.125 inch, the tape wraps with approximately 3 turns to the inch, with a 30% overlap between wraps.
[0014] The tape-wrapped bundle is encased in a spacer sheath 30 formed of PVC or other polymer, with a wall thickness of 0.014 inch. The wall thickness is held consistent, so that the spacer surface is concentric with the annulus formed by the pairs, and with the core conductor. The wall thickness of the spacer sheath is the same as that of the core sheath 22, so that the pairs are equally spaced between the core conductor surface and the surface of the spacer sheath. The spacer sheath is preferably co-extruded over the bundle, although it may be pre-formed, and the bundle drawn into its bore.
[0015] A conductive shield 32 wraps closely about the spacer sheath 26. The shield is a braided wrap of 38 AWG copper wire, with a specified coverage of at least 90%. With the controlled dimensions of the spacer sheath, the shield is spaced equally from each wire pair.
[0016] An outer sheath 34 closely surrounds the shield, and provides protection against damage. The outer sheath is formed of flexible polyurethane, and is preferably co-extruded about the shield. The finished cable has an exterior diameter of 0.23 inches.
[0017]FIG. 2 shows a single twisted pair 14 in detail. Each wire of the pair has a conductor 40 of 32 AWG copper, surrounded by an insulating sheath 42 of 0.003 inch wall thickness fluropolymer material. Each sheathed wire has an outside diameter of 0.015 inch. The wires are wound in a helix with a twist rate of 3 full turns per inch. In some applications, the twist rates may be engineered at different rates to avoid unwanted interference between adjacent pairs. In alternative embodiments, the twist rates may alternate between two different values so that adjacent pairs do not interact. The wires are in contact with each other along their entire length, on an axis. In the preferred embodiment, he wires are encased in a cover 44 of polymeric material. The cover is co-extruded about the wires, with an outside diameter of 0.045 inch, or 1� times the diameter of the pairs.
[0018] As illustrated and described in the preferred embodiment, it has been found that the cable enables data rates of 100 to 655 Mbits/sec. This is for cables with a length of 18 to 120 inches. While the very fine wires employed are needed to ensure flexibility for applications where a connected component must be moved comfortably (such as for input devices or transducers connected to computing equipment or electronic instruments), it is believed that longer cable lengths required for other purposes will require larger conductors. Although these may employ the concepts disclosed and illustrated for the preferred embodiment, they are less suited where repeated flexibility is needed.
[0019] While the above is discussed in terms of preferred and alternative embodiments, the invention is not intended to be so limited. For instance, the illustrated cable may be used as a component of a larger cable, with multiple instances of the illustrated cable bundled side-by-side about a large central core. This would provide more channels, without the increased bulk that would result from arranging a very large number of wires about a single large core.
