Description: This breakout board makes it easy to use the tiny MMA8452Q accelerometer in your project. The MMA8452Q is a smart low-power, three-axis, capacitive MEMS accelerometer with 12 bits of resolution. This accelerometer is packed with embedded functions with flexible user programmable options, configurable to two interrupt pins. Embedded interrupt functions allow for overall power savings relieving the host processor from continuously polling data.
The MMA8452Q has user selectable full scales of ±2g/±4g/±8g with high pass filtered data as well as non filtered data available real-time. The device can be configured to generate inertial wake-up interrupt signals from any combination of the configurable embedded functions allowing the MMA8452Q to monitor events and remain in a low power mode during periods of inactivity.
This board breaks out the ground, power, I2C and two external interrupt pins.
Not sure which accelerometer is right for you? Our Accelerometer and Gyro Buying Guide might help!
I'm surprised that no one has mentioned this, but from the I2C module description in the datasheet (5.10.1):
The MMA8452Q expects repeated STARTs to be used to randomly read from specific registers.
Unfortunately it seems that BCM2835 (RaspberryPi's SoC) does not support repeated START sequence. This means that this accelerometer is not compatible with the I²C bus on RaspberryPi.
More information in the link here.
Hi, I just two two of this module and it work well, so I was looking at the datasheet and it got no way recommended layout footprint for this component MMA8452Q. Could you share the library of this component for me or any recommended layout footprint?
Does the Breakout Board come with the MMA8452Q Accelerometer already soldered to it? Or do I need to purchase the accelerometer along with the board?
It comes with it soldered on it. We make it explicitly clear if the sensor is not included on the breakout board.
What is the purpose of I1 and I2? Interupting the board to send data? Seems strange if you need repeated START'S to read the data…
Where is the sketch located from the simple sketch video above?
Anyone know if these are affected by magnetic fields? I have a couple of ideas for projects using digital accelerometers where the easiest attachment method would be a magnet to hold it on the steel structure (to measure the variance from horizontal – and with an expected change on one of them to be on the order of 10 degrees/hour, a gyro is inappropriate).
What are the dimensions of this board? I can't seem to find it on the page or in any of the included documents.
The board is 0.60 x 0.60 inches. If you need more component-specific dimensions, you can load up the Eagle Files with the free version of Eagle, and measure around in there.
What is the difference between this and SEN-10955? https://www.sparkfun.com/products/10955
The component footprints got larger for easier QC. It's a hard to see change small but if you open two tabs and click between them you'll see the footprints got larger. We used to use a very tight footprint for our 0603 parts. This worked great for years but as our production got more complex we needed AOI (automated optical inspection). For the best possible testing we increased the footprints so that the AOI could see and rate a full solder fillet.
That's really cool. I'll take a slightly larger footprint as a trade for good automated QA inspection.

The Boreal Forest © Greenpeace
Greenpeace is dedicated to the conservation of Canada's largest ecosystem, the Boreal Forest. Our first priority is a healthy Boreal Forest which supports viable economies and communities. Representing more than half of Canada's landmass, the Boreal Forest sustains countless plants and animals and plays a critical role in mitigating global climate change. The Boreal holds some of the highest quantities of terrestrial carbon in the world – an estimated 208 billion tones. It is also the source of life and culture for many Indigenous communities. Yet many areas of the Boreal Forest are under threat by destructive logging practices.
Greenpeace has identified five "Endangered Forest" areas that are amongst the most valuable intact wilderness left in Canada's commercial forest. Unfortunately, companies like Resolute Forest Products are logging in some of these forests and destroying critical caribou habitat. Resolute is currently suing Greenpeace for $7 million to divert your attention from its destructive practices. But Greenpeace is standing up for the forest and won't be silenced by this lawsuit.
Currently, only 8 per cent of Canada's forest area is protected by legislation. A comprehensive network of protected areas is vital to conserve the Boreal Forest for future generations.
The forest can't defend itself. Take action and #StandForForests now.

As the school year winds down, millions of children across our nation are thinking about their summers and eagerly anticipating the last bell.
Yet, for many low-income families, the end of the school year also means the end of access to school lunch and breakfast programs. In a nation where almost 16 million children live in households that are food-insecure, this is not inconsequential. We cannot consign these children to a summer of hunger and expect them to come back to school in the fall ready to learn.

Nothing is perfect

But there is a run down apartment bldg/motel that backs up to this property and I am not comfortable buying a house that would be empty much of the time in a rather mixed area.

A great little USB flash drive,
This review is from: SanDisk Cruzer Mini 1 GB (Personal Computers)
You just about have to have a USB flash drive these days. Even if you don't need to transfer files back and forth from one PC to another, you can always use something cheap, easy, and dependable to back up your most precious files. Now, there are all sorts of drives out there these days, in all shapes, sizes, and designs. You've also got the old USB 1.1 vs. USB 2.0 issue to consider. You don't want to get dazzled by looks - this is a piece of computer hardware, not a fashion statement. You want something dependable, made by a company you know and trust. SanDisk, as far as I'm concerned, sets the standard for flash drive technology.
This little ergonomically-designed baby leaves plenty of room beside it on those tight, dual-stack USB ports, but it's big enough to keep track of fairly well (unless you forget and leave it plugged into a computer somewhere). It comes with a neck strap, which makes for an easy to way to transport it from here to there without losing track of it (even though I tend to just carry mine around in my pocket). The cap doesn't fit all that tightly, so you might have to drag it out separately from the drive sometimes if you keep it in a pocket or a purse, but I don't have any major complaints about it. Plus, it comes with two extra caps. It's always wonderful to have an extra - when a cap does come off somewhere between here and there, you can have a heck of a time finding it (especially the clear caps).
Not surprisingly, the Cruzer mini drive is made for Hi-Speed USB 2.0, which guarantees you the fastest file transfer speed available. You can still use it in an old USB 1.1 port, as well, but the transfer speed will be much slower (although still fast, in relative terms - especially in comparison with a rewritable CD or zip drive).
These flash drives have come so far down in price now that these 1GB models are becoming obsolete. If all you want out of a USB flash drive is the ability to transfer word, spreadsheet, and presentation files from one computer to another, though, the 1GB capacity will probably be more than enough to meet your needs. If you're talking about transferring pictures, video files, and the like - or if you intend to you such a drive for backup purposes for files/folders of any size - then you should definitely choose a drive with more capacity. Comparing the price of these flash drives today with prices a couple of years ago, it's like they're giving these things away.
I don't think it's possible to be unhappy with this product. These things are ridiculously easy to use (plug it in, pause for the computer to automatically recognize it, and then move or copy files back and forth between it and the hard drive), convenient as all get out to carry around, and so useful that you'll wonder how you ever possibly got by without one. I was thrilled when I finally got one of these at work last year. I had a Memorex Travel Drive already, which I used at home (and I'm still quite happy with it), but I much prefer the SanDisk Cruzer Mini.

The connection between age and ligaments stretching and an increased risk of GDV has not been proven. There was even a study where they went and cut the ligaments to see if it would cause bloat and there was not significant difference. So really you cannot make the association.

Why Android's Winning The Battle Right NowSubmitted by Rianne Schestowitz on Thursday 26th of March 2015 08:46:43 PM Filed under
Without a doubt, the key technological revolution of our time has been the rise of mobile computing. With iOS and Android leading the charge, the way people communicate has been transformed.
Of course the most significant competition in the space is the one between the two dominant mobile platforms: Google and Apple. Together, they make up the lion's share of the mobile market. The fierce competition between the two has been the driving force behind the incredible pace of development and innovation the market has seen.

The Linux desktop battle (and why it matters)Submitted by Rianne Schestowitz on Thursday 26th of March 2015 07:07:29 PM Filed under
I have been using Ubuntu Unity for a very long time. In fact, I would say that this is, by far, the longest I've stuck with a single desktop interface. Period. That doesn't mean I don't stop to smell the desktop roses along the Linux path. In fact, I've often considered other desktops as a drop-in replacement for Unity. GNOME and Budgie have vied for my attention of late. Both are solid takes on the desktop that offer a minimalistic, modern look and feel (something I prefer) and help me get my work done with an efficiency other desktops can't match.

How to create activity transition animations on Android Lollipop
Android KitKat introduced the transition framework, which is a very convenient set of APIs for animating between different UI states in an application. The framework is built around scenes and transitions. A scene refers to a given UI state in an application (think of a scene like a ViewGroup, so the entire layout of an Activity can be a Scene, and also there can be multiple Scenes in a single Activity), while a transition is the animated change from one scene to another. Lollipop has taken transitions to a whole new level. The animations are easier to implement, and there are more powerful defaults now available to developers.

Five essential must-have apps for Android Wear
The whole smartwatch shebang is still a rather confusing mini-mess, where manufacturers are not very certain on how to position their gizmos, while users are not entirely sure that a glorified timepiece with the ability to vibrate when you get an email is worth shelling out $300 for. Well, at least that was the case until the recent few months, when smartdevice makers realised that people wouldn't mind paying a premium price for a watch, as long as it doesn't look like a fitness tracker with a glowing screen, but actually resembles a timepiece you wouldn't mind being seen in public with. Nowadays, we have the Moto 360 (which still doesn't appeal to many, due to simple looks and the infamous cut-off at the bottom of its circular screen), the Asus ZenWatch, and the upcoming LG Watch Urbane, which will surely attract more eyes to the wearable tech market (and we are not even mentioning the amount of traction the Apple Watch will bring along as well).

A review of Android for Work: Dual-persona support comes to Android
If you work in an office environment, you probably know a few people—maybe a lot of people—with two smartphones. One is a personal phone full of pictures of the family, games, social networking, and sports stuff, and the other is a company-issued smartphone full of e-mail, appointments, contacts, and documents. With two phones, your IT department has full control over your work data and can remotely wipe it, and they never get to see your personal pictures or other information. It's a workable setup, but the downside is all the duplication—you have two phones, two chargers, and almost no free pocket space. The other alternative is BYOD—Bring Your Own Device—in which the IT department takes over and installs a bunch of company software to your personal phone.

Ubuntu And Ericsson Partner To Helps Telcos Achieve FlexibilitySubmitted by Roy Schestowitz on Thursday 26th of March 2015 04:05:41 PM Filed under
Ericsson is a monster in the telecommunications industry. The company, which provides products and services upon which telcos themselves build their businesses, has a network spread that sees 40 percent of the world's mobile traffic, and some 2.5 billion mobile subscribers globally pass through its equipment. Quite simply, in the telco market, what Ericsson does matter greatly. So in this vein, and given Ericsson's investments in the cloud space, it is interesting to hear of a partnership between Canonical, the open source company best known for the Ubuntu operating system, and Ericsson.

Hands-On: Linux UEFI multi-boot, part twoSubmitted by Rianne Schestowitz on Thursday 26th of March 2015 02:42:36 PM Filed under
I'm going to start this post by saying something that a lot of people will find surprising.
There are a lot of things that I like about UEFI firmware and the UEFI boot process.
I think it is an improvement over the old MBR boot system in some very useful and practical ways. Unfortunately Microsoft has turned it into yet another way to make things significantly more difficult for those who want to boot any non-Microsoft operating system.

Heat Tolerant plants
Hi! I'm a new gardener, just started last year. I guess I picked the wrong time because the heat is really really bad for plants! We had rain at the end of june so I wouldn't really call it a drought...but the 100 degree temps are making certain plants just shrivel up & turn brown. "Mulching" is really not enough...maybe if I stuck an umbrella over these plants? A mini-fridge? Nahh...I don't think so, because I plant the garden & not the other way round. I'm not wasting time coddling high-maintenance plants...whatever doesn't make it, I will just plant something else in the spot next year!
I would like to hear from others about which plants have tolerated the heat and which ones haven't. As for me, my Encore Azalea (which is supposed to tolerate sun as well as shade) doesn't look as if it will make it. (The spot is sunny now, but I'm hoping it will be shady when the nearby tree grows more.)
I also see that the viburnums are turning brown around the edges. I thought native plants were more hardy?? Hydrangea is also looking pathetic. Several weeks ago I planted an astilbe in a shady spot, and even that was starting to crisp up. The coneflowers (planted about 6 wks ago) are just about hopeless.
I planted some blazing stars and these guys are gorgeous, just like the picture, and they show no signs of wilting. So far the Rose of Sharon and the crepe myrtle are hanging in there.
I wish plants had a heat rating as well as a cold rating.
Hi Woodswalker, my coneflowers and black-eyed susans are amazing this year; they must love this hot, dry summer. Perhaps yours needed a bit more than 6 weeks establish well - they'll probably look better next year. I put a thick layer of licorice root mulch on my sunny bed in the spring and no further maintenence. Like you, I believe in "survial of the fittest" gardening; if they can't make it on their own, they're outta here.
90% of my beds are shade or part-shade and my hosta, hellebore, european ginger, variegated solomon's seal and epimedium are taking the heat and lack of rain pretty well. Most of my ferns, ligularia, astilbe, lamium and brunnera are crispy critters though.
Other sun or part-sun lovers that are holding up well: thread-leaf ansomnia, meadow rue, heurchera and sedum, especially the smaller, ground-hugging types.
My perennial geraniums, with the exception of 'Rozanne' (love this one!) are toast.

I looked at toasters everywhere. I wanted a four-slice toaster. I saw all the bells and whistles that toasters come with now and, to my horror, the newest ones beep at you when the toast is done. I'm so tired of appliances beeping at me. I just wanted a toaster that did the job simply. Although this has blue lights to indicate desired darkness of toast instead of just a mechanical dial, I suppose I can put up with that...if it doesn't break. One drawback is that the steel casing does get very hot while toasting. My older Kitchen Aid 2-slice white plastic toaster stays cool to the touch. Also, the steel casing on this now toaster is very thin; hence the hot-to-touch problem. It also lost the "warming" feature my old one had. Otherwise, it toasts okay and has the bagle option. I just wish they wouldn't change things when they have it right in the first place.

Great Toaster!
By karmic

I am a big lover of toast (every night with a cup of tea before I go to bed. Good toast is important to me. This toaster serves the mark! Being from Ireland, I grew up having my bread toasted only on one side. This toaster has a bagel feature which works perfectly for one-sided toast. It also has five toast levels so you can have it as light or as dark as you want. This feature is great for anyone with poor eyesight - no numbers to squint at, just nice bright blue lights to indicate the level of darkness. It also has the capacity to toast one to four slices at a time so that you're not wasting electricity when doing the minimal amount of toast AND it has an "extra lift" feature for those smaller slices that don't come all the way to the top. Cleans up like brand new and looks great on the counter! Love this product - would definitely recommend it!

By Miss
from Ball Ground, GA 30107, USA
the only thing I find about this toaster that isn't the greatest is that i have to push the handle twice most times to make the toast stay down. Also I have to put the toast in vertically. Longer way up top. not horizontally like on my other Kitchen Aid toaster. When the toast pops up it does not come out to where i can grab it. I have to use grabbers almost all the time. This is inconvenient
Not bad

One side of EACH slice is more toasted than the other side. Not a major issue, that's just how it is.

Bat house?
I hope someone in this forum knows. Bats do not bother me and are a natural bug management. So I bought a bat house now the problems. First it states it needs to be a min of 12' above ground and face south. I live in central FL. my house is a one story so in order to get it that high I have to mount it on a pole? Also will the heat from direct sun on this mounted pole be too much for the critters? Also how do you attract them to the house?
They won't come unless the enviroment is suitable for them. They require shade, water, plentiful food source, etc....all the usual things. IF those factors are available THEN they may take advantage of a nice bat house. But the bat house won't attract them if the other things aren't there.
Some bat species prefer a more sheltered house, while others want something out in the open and will take up residence in a bathouse on a pole.
Be patient and do some more homework. It'll be rewarding when you succeed.
Here is a link that might be useful: Florida bat house successes
I operate a bat exclusion company in central Florida. I get many requests from people that sound like this: "can you please trap some bats for me and put them in my bat house?"
It doesn't work that way! The bats have to find the bat house on their own, and they are more likely to do so if you follow the BCI guidelines posted above.
Also, this post proves that people want bats. If you do have bats in your house, it might be a blessing! Don't be so quick to try to get rid of them. If you do want to exclude them, make sure it's done right, and that none are harmed.

Music bigwigs from all corners of the globe don their classiest attire at the Brit Awards in the O2 Arena. And the best and the brightest of them all shone in black.
Taylor Swift led the pack in a jaw-dropping black Elie Saab number. The pop-country singer made sure to show she's all grown up in the sexy gown with a gold belt and sheer accents. Her attire surely caught the attention of the crowd-not to mention ex-boyfriend Harry Styles, who is also in attendance.
The One Direction heartthrob walked the red carpet with his bandmates, all looking dapper in complementing black and white attire. The Brit group took to the stage in a spirited performance of "One Way or Another", while Swift wowed the crowd with her song "I Knew You Were Trouble".
Jessie J looked to be the star of the night in a Versace black gown with a plunging neckline and sparkling gold belt. Oozing with confidence and charisma, the Price Tag singer worked the red carpet well even in a similar gown as Swift.
Another celebrity in a similar dress is former Pussycat Dolls member Ashley Roberts who showed off her impressive physique in a black leotard and long mesh skirt. She topped off her look with red lip and a messy up-do.
Lana Del Rey is as beautiful as ever, although the indie favorite kept it casual in a black Chanel shirt dress. The crooner wasn't shy about indulging in a little PDA in front of the photographers with her beau, Barrie-James O'Neill of the band Kassidy.
Emeli Sandé, Rebecca Ferguson and Jessie Ware kept the trend of the night alive in black clothing-from simple dresses to thigh-high slits and midriffs.

If you lived across the street from this guy and your kids wanted to play in the front yard, would you feel okay with them doing so while he's exercising his God given rights to wear a loaded gun that was pointing at a 45-degree angle toward the ground while waving a flag using both his hands?
Say the gun mis-fired and ricocheted off the road, would that be okay?
Accidents happen.
I don't have a problem with his protest, I have a problem with his unsafe method of protest.
God-given rights exercised without God-given common sense can lead us to wonder why God allows bad things to happen.

New Delhi: Defence Minister A K Antony
on Thursday dismissed demands for the withdrawal of Armed Forces
Special Powers Act (AFSPA) from Jammu and Kashmir, saying
infiltration attempts were still continuing and terrorists
could not be given any "opportunity to succeed" there.
"Militancy has come down substantially but at the same
time our feedback is not giving us comfort. Attempts for
infiltration are still continuing... We cannot take any step
that will give an opportunity for militants to succeed there,"
he told reporters here.
The minister was asked if the controversial Act could be
repealed, or withdrawn from the Kashmir Valley.
Stressing on the need for armed forces to be careful,
Antony said, "Inimical forces across the border, 24x7 they are
trying to send people to Jammu and Kashmir."
Observing that the situation in the state was fast
improving "because of various reasons", he said the security
forces cannot relax and have to be vigilant.
Several political leaders, including Jammu and Kashmir
Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, have sought partial withdrawal
and dilution of the AFSPA in recent months. The Home ministry
has indicated that it was already doing a review of the law
that provided sweeping powers to the armed forces.

Boston's compact size means that if you're staying in central Boston, you can easily walk to the Theatre District theaters.
But if you're driving into the city for a performance, you will need a place to park.
To find the closest garages, check out our suggestions for nearby parking. There are also a few small lots near Washington Street.
For the easiest parking experience - "easiest" meaning you're not gridlocked in our 1-lane, 1-way streets around the Theatre District when all the shows end - park in the huge garage under Boston Common and walk a block or two to your theater.

Product description
This is how wars are fought now by children, hopped up on drugs, and wielding AK-47s. In the more than fifty violent conflicts going on worldwide, it is estimated that there are some 300,000 child soldiers. Ishmael Beah used to be one of them. How does one become a killer? How does one stop? Child soldiers have been profiled by journalists, and novelists have struggled to imagine their lives. But it is rare to find a first-person account from someone who endured this hell and survived. In" A Long Way Gone Beah," now twenty-six years old, tells a riveting story in his own words: how, at the age of twelve, he fled attacking rebels and wandered a land rendered unrecognizable by violence. By thirteen, he'd been picked up by the government army, and Beah, at heart a gentle boy, found that he was capable of truly terrible acts. This is a rare and mesmerizing account, told with real literary force and heartbreaking honesty.

Review quote
Praise for the audio edition of "A Long Way Gone" "Actor Dominic Hoffman's restrained voice, edged with sadness and poignancy, conveys Beah's difficult emotional state." - "Library Journal" "This absorbing account by a young man who, as a boy of 12, gets swept up in Sierra Leone's civil war goes beyond even the best journalistic efforts in revealing the life and mind of a child abducted into the horrors of warfare...Told in clear, accessible language by a young writer with a gifted literary voice, this memoir seems destined to become a classic firsthand account of war and the ongoing plight of child soldiers in conflicts worldwide."--"Publishers Weekly" (starred review)"Beah's memoir, "A Long Way Gone" (Farrar, Straus and -Giroux), is unforgettable testimony that Africa's children--millions of them dying and orphaned by preventable diseases, hundreds of thousands of them forced into battle--have eyes to see and voices to tell what has happened. And what voices! How is it possible that 26-year-old Beah, a nonnative English speaker, separated from his family at age 12, taught to maim and to kill at 13, can sound such notes of -family happiness, of friendship under duress, of quiet horror? No outsider could have written this book, and it's hard to imagine that many -insiders could do so with such acute vision, stark language, and tenderness. It is a heart-rending achievement." --Melissa Fay Greene, "Elle Magazine" "Hideously effective in conveying the essential horror of his experiences."--"Kirkus Reviews""" "Extraordinary . . . A ferocious and desolate account of how ordinary children were turned into professional killers." -"The Guardian ""UK""" ""A Long Way Gone" is one of the most important war stories of our generation. The arming of children is among the greatest evils of the modern world, and yet we know so little about it because the children themselves are swallowed up by the very wars they are forced to wage. Ishmael Beah has not only emerged intac

Border Search Exception).
I'm just saying, if we can ignore our Constitution, why can't we also ignore whatever profiling laws are out there? If we really are doing this for safety reasons, then let's go all the way and use everything we can. I understand that you don't like profiling, but for the good of all others, why not? (sarcasm alert)
It's a very, very difficult situation and all sides have a good point. But I think we should consider everyone's reasoning before we hastily make a decision to look at people naked or feel them up. And if you were just being sarcastic, like Flop said, then I'm sorry I didn't catch that. But, either way, someone was going to make that point.
Just because they don't say "Hey, pull that guy out of the line, he's wearing a turban" doesn't mean they don't profile. Stick a million common muslim names on a watch list and tell me the 99% that do nothing wrong but have the same name aren't being profiled.. its obviously an option since we do exactly that.
I have problems sacrificing liberty for security. I see our country headed that direction more and more, and it may be an inevitable by-product of the times which-in we live, but I don't like it.
I don't know enough about the technology of the scanner to know how sensitive it is - will it pick up a nylon knife? X-rays don't. And unless they do an actual strip search, they might as well not bother for all the good pat-downs do. Especially after you have done 8 or 10 of them and have 20 more lined up. We do them all day long, and we catch the obvious. Somebody with a little training and real desire isn't going to be caught by a pat down - groping or not.
By the way - how good a pat down do you have to do to find a cell phone AND charger unit that have been kiestered? It happens! If a guy can carry a cell phone there, how about a "baby Browning" or other pocket pistol. One trip to the restroom and he is armed.
