Linux 3.3-rc5 Kernel Is Pretty Boring

Linus Torvalds released the Linux 3.3-rc5 kernel this weekend. Overall, "it's been pretty boring, which is just how I like it."
Linus would have liked this fifth release candidate of the
Linux 3.3 kernel
to be even calmer than it was, but overall he thinks this weekly kernel snapshot turned out well. There's updates to the Btrfs file-system, SCSI / media drivers, and "various noise elsewhere."
The release announcement for Linux 3.3-rc5 can be read on

Crack in the Mirror: Fight or Flee
I completed the first step in this quest for the Docking Ring, but when it came time to beam out for "fight or flee" I would get an error saying "Cannot Transfer Character" and then I would get disconnected.
I tried:
Logging Back in using "Normal" mode. Which zoned me back to the room where I crashed, and attempting again to beam out.
Logging Back in using "Safe" mode. Which sent me to the sector map, where I attempted to press "Continue" on the mission.
Both of these resulted in a crash, as stated above. I also tried both Normal and Safe mode log ins while in Sector Space. Both also failed.
I asked in Zone chat about the problem, and I was told it was bugged, I tried their advice and none of it seemed to work, so I'm having to skip this quest now.

Poems about animal. You can read the best animal poems. Browse through all animal poems.
1.Jubilate Agno (excerpt)
For I will consider my Cat Jeoffry.
For he is the servant of the Living God duly and daily serving him.
For at the first glance of the glory of God in the East he worships in his way.
For this is done by wreathing his body seven times round with elegant quickness.
For then he leaps up to catch the musk, which is the blessing of God upon his prayer.
For he rolls upon prank to work it in.
For having done duty and received blessing he begins to consider himself.
For this he performs in ten degrees.
For first he looks upon his forepaws to see if they are clean.
For secondly he kicks up behind to clear away there.
For thirdly he works it upon stretch with the forepaws extended.
For fourthly he sharpens his paws by wood.
For fifthly he washes himself.
For sixthly he rolls upon wash.
For seventhly he fleas himself, that he may not be interrupted upon the beat.
For eighthly he rubs himself against a post.
For ninthly he looks up for his instructions.
For tenthly he goes in quest of food.
For having consider'd God and himself he will consider his neighbour.
For if he meets another cat he will kiss her in kindness.
For when he takes his prey he plays with it to give it a chance.
For one mouse in seven escapes by his dallying.
For when his day's work is done his business more properly begins.
For he keeps the Lord's watch in the night against the adversary.
For he counteracts the powers of darkness by his electrical skin and glaring eyes.
For he counteracts the Devil, who is death, by brisking about the life.
For in his morning orisons he loves the sun and the sun loves him.
For he is of the tribe of Tiger.
For the Cherub Cat is a term of the Angel Tiger.
For he has the subtlety and hissing of a serpent, which in goodness he suppresses.
For he will not do destruction, if he is well-fed, neither will he spit without provocation.
For he purrs in thankfulness, when God tells him he's a good Cat.
For he is an instrument for the children to learn benevolence upon.
For every house is incomplete without him and a blessing is lacking in the spirit.
For the Lord commanded Moses concerning the cats at the departure of the Children of Israel from Egypt.
For every family had one cat at least in the bag.
For the English Cats are the best in Europe.
For he is the cleanest in the use of his forepaws of any quadruped.
For the dexterity of his defence is an instance of the love of God to him exceedingly.
For he is the quickest to his mark of any creature.
For he is tenacious of his point.
For he is a mixture of gravity and waggery.
For he knows that God is his Saviour.
For there is nothing sweeter than his peace when at rest.
For there is nothing brisker than his life when in motion.
For he is of the Lord's poor and so indeed is he called by benevolence perpetually--Poor Jeoffry! poor Jeoffry! the rat has bit thy throat.
For I bless the name of the Lord Jesus that Jeoffry is better.
For the divine spirit comes about his body to sustain it in complete cat.
For his tongue is exceeding pure so that it has in purity what it wants in music.
For he is docile and can learn certain things.
For he can set up with gravity which is patience upon approbation.
For he can fetch and carry, which is patience in employment.
For he can jump over a stick which is patience upon proof positive.
For he can spraggle upon waggle at the word of command.
For he can jump from an eminence into his master's bosom.
For he can catch the cork and toss it again.
For he is hated by the hypocrite and miser.
For the former is afraid of detection.
For the latter refuses the charge.
For he camels his back to bear the first notion of business.
For he is good to think on, if a man would express himself neatly.
For he made a great figure in Egypt for his signal services.
For he killed the Ichneumon-rat very pernicious by land.
For his ears are so acute that they sting again.
For from this proceeds the passing quickness of his attention.
For by stroking of him I have found out electricity.
For I perceived God's light about him both wax and fire.
For the Electrical fire is the spiritual substance, which God sends from heaven to sustain the bodies both of man and beast.
For God has blessed him in the variety of his movements.
For, tho he cannot fly, he is an excellent clamberer.
For his motions upon the face of the earth are more than any other quadruped.
For he can tread to all the measures upon the music.
For he can swim for life.
For he can creep. read more »

Love it!" by Abi
Joseph Joseph® Cookbook Bookstand
I was given this cook book stand as a gift and I have to say that its been one of my favourite gifts ever. I really love using it and use it every time I cook. It makes working from a book/notepad/tablet etc so so simple. It folds flat and sits on my shelf with my books when not in use. No bulky cookbook stand for me! I really love this product and highly rate it!

I brewed a belgian blonde ale that fermented out to about 1.012 with sacc. I then added Brett B, (from Orval dregs, Wyeast Brett B, and WY Trappist blend) which took it down to 1.000 pretty quickly. At bottling, the beer tasted great. It was pale in color and had a nice subtle Brett flavor. I primed it with carb tabs and cracked one open three weeks after bottling. The result was very disappointing. The beer was purple colored and completely undrinkable.
Has anyone had this happen before and what do you think happened? I have opened and dumped every bottle and they were all the same. I am guessing that it picked up something from the bottling bucket (Better Bottle with spigot) or from the carb tabs (opened packs kept in a mason jar).
Check out The Mad Fermentationist for my adventures in fermentation and my book: American Sour Beers!
Here's a picture from my phone. Before bottling it was around 3 or 4 srm. I use star san to sanitize but I didn't think that it would affect color like iodophor might if used at a high dose. The flavor change is even more drastic than the color change though.
I had the exact same issue.http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f127/mys...ondary-400456/
It's actually happened to me twice. First time was a batch of no-boil Berliner Weisse. I split the batch with my buddy. His was perfectly fine. Mine turned into this ruddy purplish mess. Tasted gnarly metallic and papery. When I dumped the keg, there was a pool of purple sludge at the bottle of the keg.
Fast forward a year later and we pull 20 gallons out of our sour barrel, split into 4 carboys. 3 out of the 4 carboys are tainted with this purple gnar. We are quite desparate to figure this one out so that we don't spoil any more beer that we've been aging for over a year.
The keg/carboys in question were cleaned with oxyclean and sanitized with star-san.
I had the exact same thing happen to me. All brett brux trois primary, pale meets IPA, warrior bitter, nelson sauvin and motueka late hops, nelson sauvin motueka and citra dry hop.
This is a sample poured after I took the FG reading:
...and this is from after I opened a bottle 6 days later (fully carb'd BTW):
I'm going to let it sit in bottles for a few more weeks
Primary : NADA
Secondary 1 : Lambic (3F dregs)
Secondary 2 : Brett'd w/ Peaches
Secondary 3 : NADA
Bottled : English Barleywine, Saison, Roasty Nuts Xmas Ale, RIS, Ancient Mead, Brett 3 IPA
Drinking : Brett 3 IPA (maybe in 2 weeks)
Test Batches: d'Bilder, Roasty Brett Nuts, Spontanteous Citra Pale
I've had the same experience on a Saison with Brett B that I made. It transitioned from a very light colored beer (simple pils and wheat grist) to a dark purple(y) color. I don't have a pic on my iPad, but I tweeted a photo of the beer after it had darkened:https://twitter.com/socalbeer/status/276551552527921152
I've looked around for some reference on the subject and haven't found much.
The troubles of our proud and angry dust
Are from eternity, and shall not fail.
Bear them we can, and if we can we must.
Shoulder the sky, my lad, and drink your ale. A. E. Housman Follow me on Twitter @SoCalBeer
This is probably the most interesting thread I have seen on HBT.
The only thing worse than dumping beer is serving beer you should have dumped.
This conversation is happening on Babble Belt as well:http://www.babblebelt.com/newboard/t...=1&tpg=1&add=1
Very odd...

New to the Gardening World...
I'm a newbie urban gardener and I'd like to get a feel for who else keeps gardens nowadays and why. Any comments would be immensly appreciated!
Why did you start a garden (for food, a hobby, aesthetic appeal, etc.)?
How old are you?
Where do you live and what type of environment do you live in(urban, suburban, rural, etc.)?
How long have you been growing fruits, veggies, herbs or flowers?
What is your favorite thing about gardening?
I want to discuss this on my blog, www.diysamurai.wordpress.com. Check it out!
until last year I lived in the city, and found that tending a garden was very relaxing for me, started off very small one tomato, one cuke, well every year I added something enlarging the patch a wee bit until I used all the space I could use, now that I live in the country I have expanded into fruit trees, fruiting shrubs and vines also putting in herb beds. I am at peace here watching my plants grow.
Hi Jackern & Mudflapper,
I am joined the garden web just a week ago.
I am interested in Veggie, Herb and Fruit gardening.
Got my backyard ready just this weekend. (moved into the new home 6 months back)
I got a raised bed for my veggies.
A nine hole herb pot for my herbs.. did it just now in fact (i dont know how to use the herbs apart from the sensuous smell)
Got 2 oranges (tangarine & tangelo) trees, a peach tree, a lime tree,
4 asian fruit plants that i bought online. (these plants r just 2-3 feet tall with 6-9 leaves on them)Trying to figure out how to increase the leaf & leaf bud growth. Any advice would be great!!
I am passionate about gardening and this is the first time I am able to get a backyard to try my hand in gardening.
I live in Phoenix, Arizona.

Down comforter - washing tips?
I would like to wash a queen size down comforter in my LG FL. This is an older comforter but since we always use duvet covers that get changed and washed weekly, the comforter itself has never been washed before. It's not stained but it has definitely reached a point of needing good refreshing.
So here are my questions:
What cycle should I use: Bulky, Delicate, Hand Wash? or something else?
What water temperature? I'd like to use HOT to kill dust mites but will this damage the down?
What detergent? I have a choice of Persil Silk and Wool Wash, Vaska, Eucalan or Woolite Delicate Wash.
When I dry it, should I use my dryer balls? I have 5 or 6 of them in the dryer and use them when drying most of my loads.
Any other tips?
We've only washed ours once in our Kenmore FL. I would definitely say 'Bulky' cycle. Since you're just freshening, I would think Woolite Delicate Wash would be fine (I'd prefer Charlie's Soap laundry detergent as it rinses clean). I'd do a double rinse. Yes to the dryer balls. Can't say if hot water temp would damage the down, I would think not, but I just don't know. Hope this helps & good luck!
I would not recommend washing a down comforter in any home machine. If it is a tight fit in the washer it won't get cleaned much and the down may get damaged. Drying it is another matter. Even in a commercial dryer where there is lots of room it can take hours to dry them and you can't have the heat too high. To get the down really dry and fluffy in a home machine is difficult. I would recommend taking it to a laundromat yourself or having a laundry service do it for you.
I finally gave up and changed to a down alternative comforter. Not quite as fancy but much easier to wash/dry.
Good luck with your comforter.
I have washed my down comforters and other items for many years.
From an old thread:
Purchase special down washing soap from a camping store or use Cuddledown down-washing product. In a pinch you can use sweater washing products without built-in f/s, but NOT liquid Woolite. The ban on Woolite applies to FL's as it is very sudsy. If you were doing this in a TL, Woolite would be OK. Do not use regular laundry detergents, especially anything with enzymes (like Cheer for instance) which will be very hard on the down. Most regular laundry detergents have various additives that could be very damaging to the down by stripping it. The special down soap is worth the trouble to locate. I have had very good luck with stuff from Cuddledown, and they sell by mail order. I prefer a product called Downe, but it may be hard to find.
First inspect the comforter very carefully to locate and repair any tiny tears or seam rips. If you don't do this beforehand you will be picking the down off the inside of your machine.
Pretreat any especially grimey areas with a bit of the liquid down soap. If the spots are really bad, push the down away and use a liquid spot cleaner product just on the soiled area of the shell. Rinse well in a bath tub to remove as much of the pretreater as you can as it will be hard on the down.
Take the comforter down to your washing machine and stuff it in. Do not be worried if it barely fits; it's full of air and when that is pressed out, it will wash just fine.
Run a cold, rinse-and-spin cycle (or whatever passes for that on your machine, even a quick wash program). DO NOT ADD SOAP at this point. Keep repeating this cycle until the machine has completely saturated the item and the spinning action has collapsed the down and driven the air out of the comforter. It should look quite smashed. It is now ready to be washed.
Set the machine up for a short to medium length wash period with a high water level, at mildly warm temps with gentle action, with as many rinses as possible and an energetic spin cycle. Often gentle action comes with an attentuated spin cyle. If that's the case, don't worry about it. After the gentle wash cycle is completed, leave the item in the machine and perform a high-speed spin-only program to drive out as much moisture as possible.
Use only a small amount of the down soap, as it often is quite foamy. Use NO fabric softener, though a bit of vinegar won't hurt.
When you retrieve your comforter after the wash cycle it will look utterly awful, but that's OK. In fact, if it doesn't look like you've pretty much ruined it, it probably isn't clean!
I generally try to do comforters on warm breezy days as I like to alternate machine drying with line drying. However I always start with a period of machine drying. When you purchase the down soap you should also get some fat nylon rings. These are necessary to bang up the wet down clumps and add some necessary static electricity at the end to regain maximum loft. Some people use clean tennis shoes or tennis balls, instead, but I find the rings more satisfactory. You can put them in clean cotton socks if the banging is annoying. You can also get these rings at pet stores that sell Nylabone dog toys.
Run the dryer at low temps for an hour or more. Pause it occasionally to check that things are going well and to shake out the comforter. After an hour I would hang mine out in the wind, and alternate between periods of 2 or 3 hours outside and another hour in the dryer. The shell will dry hours before the down will, but you absolutely must soldier on and get the filling fully dry. You can pause the half-dry comforter overnight if you don't want to run it while you're sleeping. Just hang it somewhere outside the dryer and arranged relatively loosely. You do not want to allow any opportunity for the down to get moldy before it is completely dry!
You will know when it is fully dry because the it will regain its original loft and a careful "feeling" of it will reveal no little bumps of clumped (and therefore still damp) down.
Home-washing of down items is a lot of work, but the advantage is that they are cleaned without drycleaning solvents. Properly done they will wind up clean, soft and sweet-smelling.
Look at the fabric of your comforter very carefully. If it has a high thread count or appears tightly woven, this might be a problem for your washer.
After getting our first FL this year, I used the "Comforters" cycle to wash two bed pillows because my washer's owners manual said this was the cycle for pillows.
Once the water passed through the tightly woven fabric cover of the pillows and got inside the pillow, to the poly stuffing, the fabric cover held the water inside the pillow. It was so heavy with water that the washer would not even spin. The water didn't want to drain out easily, either. It was such a mess that I had to put it outside and the pillow was a complete loss. This was a standard size pillow, so a bed-size comforter could end up a real mess, depending on the weave of the fabric.
This all sounds familiar. I washed my son's new LE down parka in my Miele W4842. I used Miele's down detergent but I also have LeBlanc for down as well.
I used the outerwear setting and the coat floated on top of the water for quite awhile. Water finally penetrated it and it looked soaked. It came out nice and clean and smelling lovely but it looked awful. I was scared it was ruined.
I had to dry it forever to get it dry. I did use two tennis balls but I still ended up with some clumps of down. It did eventually fluff out after he wore it a few times. After a few days the coat looked brand new.
Thank you all. I think I will give it a try tomorrow morning. As I said this is an older comforter that hasn't been used in at least 4 years. I recently took it out of the linen closet and started using it again but it just doesn't look, smell or feel fresh. If it gets ruined in the wash, then I'll get a new one. I won't feel bad since it wasn't expensive in the first place.
Here is my plan:
- run a quick rinse and spin cycle in order to saturate it
- then run a bulky cycle with Water Plus and Extra Rinse using Persil Wool and Silk wash (no enzymes or brighteners) and warm + water
- if needed, rinse and spin again
- spend the rest of the day drying it ;-)
Good plan except expect that it will probably take more than one Quick rinse and spin cycles to completely saturate the item, through and through.
Don't bother starting the wash-phase cycles until the darn thing looks like a drowned rat - one that's been flattened by a semi. You're not at the right point until you look at the thing and think OMG, I've ruined it.
Additional rinse cycles may be necessary since sometimes previously-unwashed comforter covers can shed a fair amount of sizing/filler during their first trip in water.
Plus plan on drying it some more the second day after a night of airing indoors.
Also be sure to pre-treat any really grungy spots ahead of time.
I'm sure it will be fine!
As stated above the big problem is getting it completely saturated. For comforters and high thread count items I start the clycle on delicates and after 10 minutes stop and restart it on the bulky cycle. This seems to give time for absorption. Any detergent without enzymes will be fine. After the 2nd spin I stop the washer and again go back to the delicates cycle, then back to rinse. For drying my uber bulky king size comforter I take it to the laundromat. My dryer just isn't big enough to circulate the air and fluff it. Dry on low. Run one extra drying cycle when you think it is done. Down gets funky if not dried completely and the feathers seem to hide moisture.
Thank you all. The comforter is now finishing drying! It washed really well. What I had to do is run a Rinse and Spin cycle, then a Quick Wash cycle (no detergent), then I started my Bulky cycle adding a prewash and an extra rinse. Then I rinsed again. I wanted to be absolutely sure that the comforter was well saturated and rinsed really well. It looked like a drowned rat when I was done with it ;-) but it washed beautifully. There were no stray feathers in either the washer or the dryer!!! I have been drying it on medium, pausing every ten minutes or so to untangle it and fluff it. It's almost the end of the second 1 hour cycle and it seems completely dry. It is super fluffy and looks brand new!

Still crashing repeatedly
I was hoping this update would fix it but after tapping a linked phrase in articles the app sends me back to the newsstand folder and forces me to reopen NYT, and not to the article I was reading. I have to go find it again, try to use the link embedded in the article again, only to have it crash again, and again... Why does this seem so hard? I pay for my subscription. I wish I had an app I could rely.

I use NYTimes as a resource for college papers and lectures. So far, everything is helpful. The problem is that with this iPhone app, when you search an article from the website, it doesn't show you the article. Also, the saved items doesn't sync from the website to this app..

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has arrived in Jerusalem for talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as expectations rose of a ceasefire soon to end a week of fighting around the Gaza Strip.
However, Gaza's rulers, the Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas, revised a statement that a truce would start overnight, saying it was still waiting for an Israeli response to proposals and did not now expect an announcement until late tonight.
An official in the Egyptian government, whose new, Islamist leadership has been playing peace broker in Cairo, had also said a ceasefire could begin today.
But Israeli officials continued to say that discussions were still continuing.
Israel pressed on with its strikes in the coastal enclave on the seventh day of its offensive and Palestinian rockets still flashed across the border as Clinton arrived in Jerusalem. She meet Netanyahu this morning.
One Hamas official had said a truce might start at 9pm local time. But after that moment passed, a senior figure in the movement, Ezzat al-Rishq, told Reuters in Cairo: "The truce is now held up because we are waiting for the Israeli side to respond.
"We ... must wait until tomorrow."
The Jewish state launched the campaign last week with the declared aim of halting the rocketing of its towns from the Palestinian enclave, ruled by the Hamas militant group that does not recognise Israel's right to exist.
Medical officials in Gaza said 27 Palestinians were killed in the latest violence. An Israeli soldier and a civilian died when rockets exploded near the Gaza frontier, police and the army said.
Gaza medical officials say 134 people have died in Israeli strikes, mostly civilians, including 34 children. In all, five Israelis have died, including three civilians killed last week.
Netanyahu said earlier that Israel was open to a long-term deal aimed at ending Palestinian rocket attacks that have plagued its southern region for years.
Khaled Meshaal, the exiled leader of Hamas, said yesterday that Israel must halt its military action and lift its blockade of the Palestinian coastal enclave in exchange for a truce.
Both Netanyahu, favoured to win a January national election, and US President Barack Obama have said they want a diplomatic solution, rather than a possible Israeli ground operation in the densely populated territory, home to 1.7 million Palestinians.
Israel's military has targeted more than 130 sites in Gaza, including ammunition stores and the Gaza headquarters of the National Islamic Bank. Israeli police said more than 150 rockets were fired from Gaza by the evening.
"No country would tolerate rocket attacks against its cities and against its civilians. Israel cannot tolerate such attacks," Netanyahu said with UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, who arrived in Jerusalem from talks in Cairo, at his side.
"If a long-term solution can be put in place through diplomatic means, then Israel would be a willing partner to such a solution," he said. "But if stronger military action proves necessary to stop the constant barrage of rockets, Israel will do what is necessary to defend our people."
After nightfall, Israel stepped up its Gaza bombardment. Artillery shells and missiles fired from naval gunboats slammed into the territory and air strikes came at a frequency of about one every 10 minutes.
In an attack claimed in Gaza by Hamas's armed wing, a longer-range rocket targeted Jerusalem overnight for the second time since Israel launched the air offensive.
The rocket, which fell harmlessly in the occupied West Bank, triggered warning sirens in the holy city about the time Ban arrived for truce discussions. Another rocket damaged an apartment building in Rishon Lezion, near Tel Aviv.
Rockets fired at the two big cities over the past week were the first to reach them in decades, a sign of what Israel says is an increasing threat from Gaza militants.
In the Gaza Strip, Hamas executed six alleged collaborators, whom a security source quoted by the Hamas Aqsa radio said "were caught red-handed" with "filming equipment to take footage of positions". The radio said they were shot.
Militants on a motorcycle dragged the body of one of the men through the streets.
Along Israel's sandy, fenced-off border with the Gaza Strip, tanks, artillery and infantry massed in field encampments awaiting any orders to go in. Some 45,000 reserve troops have been called up since the offensive was launched.
A delegation of nine Arab ministers, led by the Egyptian foreign minister, visited Gaza in a further signal of heightened Arab solidarity with the Palestinians.
Egypt has been a key player in efforts to end the most serious fighting between Israel and Palestinian militants since a three-week Israeli invasion of the enclave in the winter of 2008-9.
Egypt has a 1979 peace treaty with Israel seen by the West as the cornerstone of Middle East peace, but that has been tested as never before by the removal of US ally Hosni Mubarak as president last year in the Arab Spring uprisings.
Mohamed Mursi, elected Egyptian president this year, is a veteran of the Muslim Brotherhood, spiritual mentors of Hamas, but says he is committed to Egypt's treaty with Israel.
Mursi has warned Netanyahu of serious consequences from an invasion of the kind that killed more than 1,400 people in Gaza four years ago. But he has been careful so far not to alienate Israel, or Washington, a major aid donor to Egypt.

MONEY PURCHASE PENSION PLAN SUMMARY PLAN DESCRIPTION AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT OF PLAN Your employer, THE ASSOCIATION OF UNIVERSITIES FOR RESEARCH IN ASTRONOMY, INC., previously established the AURA MONEY PURCHASE PENSION PLAN effective October 1, 1985. This plan has now been amended and restated effective January 1, 1996. This Summary Plan Description ("SPD") has been prepared to give you information about the provisions of the AURA Money Purchase Pension Plan ("the Plan") and about how it may benefit you. You should read all parts of this description carefully so that you understand the ways in which the Plan may benefit you and those certain exclusions to coverage and limitations on the receipt of benefits that may apply to you. If you wish additional information concerning the AURA Money Purchase Pension Plan, this description tells you how to obtain that information. LIMITATIONS OF THIS DESCRIPTION This description summarizes the main provisions of the Plan. It is not the complete Plan. A complete copy of the Plan is available in the Center Human Resources office for your inspection. In case of any conflict between the provisions of the complete Plan and this description, the provisions of the complete Plan will control. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF CONTRIBUTIONS In order to understand more fully some of the matters discussed later in this Plan Description, you will benefit by having a general idea of how the Money Purchase Pension Plan works. Contributions are made to the Plan based upon a percentage of each participant's annual base compensation. Contributions will be credited to the individual accounts of the eligible employees who are participants in the Plan for the year in which the contribution is made. The way in which these amounts will be distributed to participants will be discussed later in this Summary. If you are now a participant, or later become a participant, you are or will be eligible to set up an account in your name. The amounts credited to individual accounts are invested in various mutual fund or annuity contracts selected by the participant, and any gain or loss from plan investments is THE AURA MONEY PURCHASE PENSION PLAN – SPD – Plan ID No. 004 credited to, or charged against, the individual account of each participant. After the participant terminates his/her service with the employer, the vested (or non-forfeitable) percentage of the account credited to the participant will be distributed to him/her. (The employee may elect to postpone his/her distribution. See the discussion under the heading DISTRIBUTION OF BENEFITS below.) If you are a participant or become a participant, the benefits you will receive under the Plan will depend primarily upon three factors— 1. The amount of employer-contributions credited to your account in the Plan; 2. The return on investments under the plan; and 3. The vested (or non-forfeitable) percentage of your account when you terminate. You may have heard or read that the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation guarantees certain benefits under pension plans; however, a money purchase pension plan is one of the types of plans whose benefits are not permitted to be guaranteed by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation. ELIGIBILITY FOR THE PLAN First, you must be an employee of the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc. ("AURA") in order to be eligible for participation. However, employees locally hired in the Republic of Chile who receive no earned income that constitutes income from sources within the United States are not eligible to participate in this plan. If you are a member of an excluded class and later become a member of an eligible class, you may participate immediately upon qualification. Employees must complete at least one "year of service for participation." You will be admitted to participation in the Plan on the earliest entry date after you have met this requirement. The entry dates are the first days of every month. Generally, this will mean that if you are a full-time employee, you will become a participant the first of the month following your one-year anniversary. If an employee has met this requirement, he/she may already be a participant in the Plan. Year of Service for Participation. A year of service for participation is a 12– consecutive month period during which an employee has at least 1,000 hours of service with the employer. (The way in which hours of service will be measured is discussed in the heading that follows.) The 12–month period begins on the date that an employee starts working for AURA. For example, assume an employee began working for AURA on April 15, 1998, and had completed 1,000 hours of service by April 14, 1999. Then, that employee would be admitted to participation in the Plan on May 1, 1999, the first entry date after completion of the year of service for participation, as long as he/she were an employee on May 1, 1999. Page 2 of 10 THE AURA MONEY PURCHASE PENSION PLAN – SPD – Plan ID No. 004 If an employee does not meet the 1,000–hour requirement during the 12–month period which started with the employment date, the employee will be admitted to participation at a subsequent time provided he/she has rendered 1,000 hours of service during any 12–month period starting on the anniversary of the employment date and ending on the next anniversary thereof. Hour of Service. An hour of service means any hour for which the employee is paid for working for AURA. It also may include certain hours for which you are not directly paid by AURA. An hour of service is important for measuring 1,000 hours of service for participation (as discussed above), 1,000 hours of service for accrual of benefits, 1,000 hours of service for vesting and less than 501 hours of service for a one-year break in service (all of which are discussed below). New employees who were covered under an eligible retirement plan or §403(b) plan during the three-month period immediately prior to their employment with AURA may enter the Plan on the entry date coincident with or immediately following their date of employment. IF YOU ARE NOT YET A PARTICIPANT IN THE PLAN, MOST OF THE INFORMATION WHICH FOLLOWS WILL APPLY TO YOU ONLY AFTER YOU BECOME A PARTICIPANT. Suspension or Termination of Participation. If your employment terminates after you have become a participant, and you incur a one-year break in service, your participation in the Plan will be suspended or temporarily terminated until you complete one Hour of Service following your return to employment. Breaks in Service. Five (or more) consecutive one-year breaks in service can be important in determining the number of years of service for vesting, discussed below under the heading VESTED OR NON-FORFEITABLE PORTION OF PARTICIPANT'S BENEFITS. A one-year break in service occurs when an employee has no more than 500 hours of service during a plan year. In certain cases of absence due to pregnancy, child birth, or an adoption, you may be credited with enough hours of service to avoid a one-year break in service for one plan year. You should check with the Center Human Resources Manager for additional information about breaks in service. DEFINITION OF THE "PLAN YEAR" The Plan year is the first day of January to the last day of December annually. The Plan year refers to the period of time records are kept for plan administration, and the period during which allocations of employer contributions are determined. Page 3 of 10 THE AURA MONEY PURCHASE PENSION PLAN – SPD – Plan ID No. 004 EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTIONS For each plan year, the employer is regularly required under the Plan to make a contribution on behalf of eligible employees or participants who have completed at least160 hours during the year. The amount of employer contributions for a plan year made on your behalf, as an eligible participant, will be an amount equal to 10% of your base compensation for that calendar year or portion thereof during which you were a participant. DEFINITION OF "COMPENSATION" Generally, your annual compensation for purposes of determining the amount of employer contributions on your behalf under the Plan will be calculated as compensation paid during the plan year under consideration as regular base wages, salary or commissions by the employer to you, during the time you were a participant in the Plan. Compensation for the purposes of this plan excludes other types of pay such as overtime payments, bonuses, awards, COLA, Mobility payments, director's fees and including amounts deferred pursuant to a 401(k) plan, a salary reduction simplified employee pension, or a 403(b) annuity, or contributed to any welfare benefit plans maintained by the employer through a reduction in your compensation which, pursuant to a flexible benefit (cafeteria) plan, are not included in your gross income for the taxable year in which those amounts are contributed. It also excludes amounts paid to you while you were not a participant. Annual compensation of each Participant taken into account for determining all benefits provided under the Plan shall not exceed the limitations under IRC sections 415(d), 401(a) (17) (B) and other applicable limitations set forth in the code. VESTED OR NON-FORFEITABLE PORTION OF PARTICIPANT'S BENEFITS Non-Forfeitable or Vested Percentage. Funds contributed by the employer are allocated as described above and are then invested and accumulated. The portion or percentage of the employer contributions which will eventually be distributed to you after you have terminated employment is called the non-forfeitable or vested percentage. Any participant in the Plan after January 1, 2002, is 100% vested at all times. Because you are 100% vested, all employer contributions credited to your account, adjusted for investment experience, will be distributed to you. The time and manner in which your benefits will be distributed to you is discussed below under the heading DISTRIBUTION OF BENEFITS. Page 4 of 10 THE AURA MONEY PURCHASE PENSION PLAN – SPD – Plan ID No. 004 DISTRIBUTION OF BENEFITS Time of Distribution. Upon termination of your employment, you may elect at any time after the plan year in which such termination occurs or as soon thereafter as is administratively feasible to receive your vested, accrued benefits. However, if the value of your vested accrued benefits is less than $1,000, your benefits may be distributed to you in the form of a lump sum even if you do not elect to receive it. You may incur a 10% penalty tax if distributions are made to you before age 59–1/2. For more information about the penalties and taxes associated with a distribution, please see your Center Human Resources Manager. Benefits may be distributed to you without your consent after you have terminated employment with AURA and have attained the earliest retirement age under the Plan. Benefits must be distributed to you (as a mandatory minimum distribution) beginning no later than April 1 of the year following the calendar year in which you attain age seventy and one half (70½) or when you retire, if later. Manner of Distribution. At your election, benefits may be distributed in any one of the following ways: 1. A joint and survivor annuity payable during your lifetime and that of your wife or husband, if you are married; or 2. An annuity, payable not less frequently than annually during your lifetime; or 3. Approximately equal periodic installments which generally cannot extend past your life expectancy or the joint life expectancy of you and your beneficiary; or 4. A lump sum; or 5. A rollover, or a direct rollover to an IRA or another qualified retirement plan. You may elect to have your vested benefits transferred in the form of direct rollover to another tax-qualified retirement plan (which accepts such a transfer) or to an IRA. This will avoid the requirement of automatic 20% withholding on the distribution that may otherwise apply. The employer will provide you with further information on a direct rollover prior to the time you may make such an election. Under the Plan, there are certain situations when your spouse (or other designated beneficiary) will receive, if you are married, a survivor annuity in case of your death before Page 5 of 10 THE AURA MONEY PURCHASE PENSION PLAN – SPD – Plan ID No. 004 retirement, or a joint and survivor annuity on your retirement. You have the right to elect not to receive benefits in these forms, provided your spouse consents to your election. These rights of election are so important that they are discussed below under the separate heading A SURVIVOR OR JOINT AND SURVIVOR ANNUITY. SURVIVOR OR JOINT AND SURVIVOR ANNUITY Generally, the Plan requires that a Joint And Survivor Annuity be paid to you if distributions to you begin before your death and if you are married at the time distributions begin or a single life annuity if you are not married. Under a Joint And Survivor Annuity, if your spouse survives you, she or he will receive monthly payments equal to 50% of the monthly payments that were made to you. For example, if a participant with a Joint And Survivor Annuity received $1,000 per month during his/her lifetime, his/her surviving spouse, would receive $500 per month. (The exact amount the spouse would receive is determined by the Administrator prior to the date distributions to the participant began.) If you wish, you may elect not to receive a single life annuity (if not married) or a Joint And Survivor Annuity (if married). You might wish to make such an election for various reasons: for example, so that monthly annuity payments to you during your lifetime would be greater than under a Joint And Survivor Annuity, or because you wished to have distributions made to you in a different form than a life annuity. The other forms of distribution that are available if you elect (with your spouse's consent, if married) not to receive a Joint And Survivor Annuity or a Single Life Annuity (if not married) are described under the heading DISTRIBUTION OF BENEFITS, above. No less than thirty (30) days and no later than ninety (90) days before the anticipated starting date of a joint and survivor annuity (or a single life annuity if you are not married), AURA or your fund administrator will distribute to you information concerning your right to elect not to receive a joint and survivor annuity (or Single Life Annuity if not married). If you request it at that time, AURA or your fund administrator will also furnish you with more detailed information on the economic effects of such an election. You will then have the right, with the consent of your spouse (if married), up until the starting date of the annuity, to elect in writing not to receive a joint and survivor annuity, or single life annuity if you are not married. The consent of your spouse to the election not to receive a joint and survivor annuity must be witnessed by a plan official or notary. If you die prior to the anticipated starting date of a joint and survivor annuity, the Plan provides that your spouse will receive a survivor annuity under certain circumstances. In the case of an unmarried employee, your accrued benefit will be distributed to your designated beneficiary or lineal descendants, parents, or estate, in that order, if you failed to designate a beneficiary. If you die prior to normal retirement age, while married, your Page 6 of 10 THE AURA MONEY PURCHASE PENSION PLAN – SPD – Plan ID No. 004 spouse will be entitled to receive survivor annuity benefits equal to the benefit she or he would have been entitled to receive if the Plan had started paying a joint and survivor annuity to you and your spouse one day before your death. If you are married you may elect, with the consent of your spouse (in the manner described in the Plan), not to receive a pre-retirement survivor annuity. DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY You should designate a beneficiary to receive any benefits which would become payable upon or after your death. This designation should be made in writing on a form provided to you by the Center's designated Plan Administrator. If you do not make such a designation, your spouse, your lineal descendants, your parents, and your estate, in that order, would receive any benefits payable upon your death. Your spouse is entitled to at least 50% of your retirement plan and is normally named as your beneficiary. The Plan does, however, provide a procedure for your consenting spouse to renounce his/her right as your sole beneficiary. Nevertheless, if the procedure in the Plan is not followed, your spouse may well be your beneficiary, even though you have named a different beneficiary. FILING CLAIMS FOR BENEFITS You, as a participant, or your beneficiary (in the event of your death), at the time discussed above in this plan description, may file a written election with the Plan Administrator, requesting a distribution of benefits. If your claim, or that of your beneficiary, is denied, the reasons for the denial will be given to you or your beneficiary in writing. You or your beneficiary will have sixty (60) days from the date of notice of denial of your claim to appeal the decision in writing to the administrator. You or your beneficiary will be given an opportunity for a full and fair review by the Plan Administrator. RIGHTS OF PARTICIPANTS Participants and beneficiaries in this Money Purchase Pension Plan are entitled to certain rights and protections under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). Title I of ERISA provides that all plan participants shall be entitled to: (a) Examine, without charge, at the Plan Administrator's office and at other locations such as worksites, all plan documents, including insurance contracts, and copies of all documents filed by the Plan Administrator with the U.S. Department of Labor, such as annual reports and plan descriptions. Page 7 of 10 THE AURA MONEY PURCHASE PENSION PLAN – SPD – Plan ID No. 004 (b) Obtain copies of all plan documents and other plan information upon written request to the plan Administrator. The administrator may make a reasonable charge for the copies. (c) Receive a summary of the Plan's annual financial report. The plan Administrator is required by law to furnish each participant with a copy of this summary annual report. (d) Obtain, once a year, a statement of the total plan benefits accrued and the non-forfeitable (vested) plan benefits, if any, or the earliest date on which benefits will become non-forfeitable (vested). The Plan may require a written request for this statement, but it must provide the statement free of charge. In addition to creating rights for plan participants, Title I of ERISA imposes duties upon the people who are responsible for the operation of the Plan. The people who operate your plan, called "fiduciaries" of the Plan, have a duty to do so prudently and in the interest of you and other plan participants and beneficiaries. No one, including your employer or any other person, may fire you or otherwise discriminate against you in any way to prevent you from obtaining a plan benefit or exercising your rights under ERISA. If your claim for a plan benefit is denied in whole or in part, you must receive a written explanation of the reason for the denial. You have the right to have the Plan Administrator review and reconsider your claim. Under Title I of ERISA there are steps you can take to enforce the above rights. For instance, if you request materials from the Plan Administrator and do not receive them within thirty (30) days, you may file suit in a federal court. In such a case, the court may require the Plan Administrator to provide the materials and pay you up to $110.00 a day until you receive the materials, unless the materials were not sent because of reasons beyond the control of the Administrator. If you have a claim for benefits that are denied or ignored, in whole or in part, you may file suit in a state or federal court. The court will decide who should pay court costs and legal fees. If you are successful, the court may order the person you have sued to pay these costs and fees. If you lose, the court may order you to pay these costs and fees, for example, if it finds your claim is frivolous. If you have any questions about this plan, you should contact the Plan Administrator. Page 8 of 10 THE AURA MONEY PURCHASE PENSION PLAN – SPD – Plan ID No. 004 If you have any questions about this statement or your rights under ERISA, you should contact the Plan Administrator or the nearest Area Office of the U.S. Labor– Management Service Administration, Department of Labor. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION AURA expects to continue the Plan indefinitely, but reserves the right to terminate the Plan or to amend it at any time. AURA also reserves the right to suspend contributions if it is determined that continuation of contributions is impossible or inadvisable. If the Plan is terminated, or if the employer contributions to the Plan are permanently discontinued, each participant will be entitled to receive the accrued balance of his/her account.

Another one gets it's wings!
Managed to get up for a few laps in fairly blustery conditions today. All up, I think this jet's a winner
Did the usual 'landing gear too far aft' pop off the runway. I lined up with 250' of runway (tarmac), held about 1/2 backstick and opened the taps. With 50' to run, and no nose wheel liftoff, I pulled more, and immediately got to 45 nose up!
Good point: Heaps of power to maintain 45 nose up
I used the Su34 as a warm up, and there are some similarities in handling qualities, but the 35 certainly feels more grown up (bigger, heavier, more predictable)
Landing was a doddle, and roll out was only around 200'.

Nope, TV off for the maiden.
I knew it'd probably stick to the runway, but was hoping for the best.
I'd love to move the mains forward a bit, but that defeats the purpose of "just fly it"!

Cool - that's what I was worried about, but having a 500' tarmac strip, I thought I'd be fine.
Of course, I decided to start the takeoff roll in front of the pilot box. That extra distance could have made things go just a little sweeter!
Now I know what 'flying speed' looks like, I'm sure I can get it up a bit smoother.
|Oct 21, 2012, 04:20 PM
Odysis; you mention wanting to move the mains forward. This was posted early.
They are fairly close to scale and CG so unless you have yours nose heavy, you risk getting it too close it falling back on its tail with a little bouce.
Convention has the mains 10-15* aft of CG.

Good point re scale, but we also have our CoG's further forward than the real one.
I will try moving it around, moving the mains is too hard! Makes takeoff nicer, but landing tougher. Everything's a trade-off...
|Oct 21, 2012, 09:01 PM
Odysis, not that I'm arguing but what would change the CG for the model from scale? The provided symmetrical foil still maxes around 35% to the full scales 40% and the wing area and sweep are the same. So little change to reposition MAC or CG. The CG doesn't really reach neutral unstable till you pass 165mm-167mm.
Not sure if it being a fighter changes minds that fighters are only tail heavy. Fighters go tail heavy by a load shift after takeoff during engagement. If they were tail heavy static they would flop back on their tails! Even while being loaded with ordnance, they don't fall back on the tail.
The flip side is its important not to make it too nose heavy to exacerbate the problem.
|Oct 21, 2012, 11:06 PM
Maybe try adjusting the gear (raising the nose, lowering the mains) to add some positive alpha on the ground.

After my first two flights yesterday, I put her on the bench to have a better look at the ESC cooling setup.
What initially looks like a fancy grilled scoop to direct air over the stock ESCs with their cooling fins, I noticed that there was nowhere for that scooped air to flow to (except a couple of small slots where some servo leads come down into the cable run).
That scooped air would pretty much stagnate and provide very little cooling mass flow.
An easy fix would be to remove the rear portion of the cable run cover to provide some flow through, but that will only work when there's forward airspeed. The fancy TV moves are usually high power but low forward speed.
I thought about relocating the ESCs into the intake ducts, but that would have required major surgery and I'm a lazy modeller. So I drilled some new ducts from the main exhaust ducts back into the cable run cavity - the theory being that the efflux will create a venturi effect that will suck air through the cable run and past the ESCs, especially during high power phases.
Might be a waste of time. Will report if it makes any difference when I fly next.

The Su35 is fly by wire, therefore I assume statically unstable.
So I'd like to move the mains back a bit, the nose back a fair bit. Keep the 15deg CoG-main wheel contact point relationship, and 10:1 main:nose wheel weight.
As for jets re-arranging their CoG inflight - not any I've seen! I know a 747 can do it, but an F111 was the only jet I'm familiar with that had anything even remotely like trim tanks. A hornet for example, the fin tanks are mostly as vents...
either way - I'm sure once I figure out my personal CoG preference, and what a decent amount of elevator is, I'll be able to get a much nicer takeoff.
|Oct 22, 2012, 07:03 AM
What's true for the real plane does not necessarily hold for the RC version. Design compromises are made for materials (foam vs metal) and stability.
Shifts in real plane CG usually happen because of fuel consumption. One solution has been to sip fuel from different tanks over time.
|Oct 22, 2012, 08:07 AM
You should look into Max's mod for air movement through the esc vent and channel via the fans drawing air through holes cut into the side wall of the intake walls. Its a great lil mod that utilizes the fans draw to create flow and movement over the escs and exit.
|Oct 22, 2012, 08:57 AM
I agree with V8. Max's mod is by far the best method with the least butchering. I fly at high altitude and heat in the high desert and have not had any overheating problems at all. Regards CG... I started with mine set in the middle of factory suggestion. I have moved my 5000 battery pack further back in increments of 1/4" until I'm now about 1 1/12" to the rear and the aircraft flies perfect for the entire flight envelope.
