Two steps forward, one step back
... had to actually drive through the streets of San Remo which was just mental. Drivers just go when they want and the moped riders seem to have a death wish. Jess was driving so it was fun to her and she just had to adapt to their way of driving or we would still be sitting at an intersection waiting to get out. We got to our campsite and it was the priciest one we have stayed at yet and it is a very odd site, completely ...
Stand By to Stand By
... up around 10:30-11:00. We prepped up some soups and sauces, appetizers, desserts, etc hoping they might want something we have already created. "Stand by to stand by" is the frequent motto on the boat, as every question I ask that seems to be the answer. Information is incredibly limited and decisions can change 30 seconds after they've been made. Definitely a different kind of stress than I'm used to in restaurants. We only had up to 7 guests on ...

The next day we awoke at the nice and early time of about 11:30 and spent several hours waking up. Then we left bound for the beach - I must say the beaches here are NOTHING like Australian waters! It's no wonder so many tourists die in our waters! There is no surf whatsoever, virtually no waves, the beaches themselves are rock... And ...

We looked up a recipe, along with one for sangria, and headed over to the monoprix to get what we needed. I must say, it was so nice to relax in the kitchen with some tunes and cook a home cooked meal. We both agreed it was delicious. Wish we could have shared with you! Next stop, La ...

SAO PAULO -- Shareholders and creditors of firms controlled by embattled Brazilian billionaire Eike Batista are starting to consider legal options following the group's dramatic meltdown.
Shares and bonds in Mr. Batista's flagship oil company, OGX Petroleo e Gas Participacoes, have slumped as the firm has fallen short of production targets. Most recently, OGX said it may have to halt work on its only producing field next year. Its woes have triggered a crisis of confidence across Mr. Batista's EBX group of heavy-industry firms.
About 200 bond creditors are expected to participate in an investor conference call on Thursday afternoon organized by U.S. law firm Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton, FTI Consulting and Brazilian law firm Pinheiro Neto Advogados, according to a person familiar with the situation.
The call will focus mainly on the $3.6 billion in bonds sold by OGX, as well as the $500 million in bonds sold by naval construction firm OSX Brasil, the person said. OGX's bonds, due 2018 and 2022, are trading around 20 cents on the dollar; OSX's bonds, which are backed by oil platforms under construction, are trading around 86 cents on the dollar.
The creditors will discuss the likelihood that Mr. Batista will make good on a commitment to invest a further $1 billion in OGX, as he's promised to do, the person said.
The chances the billionaire will inject extra cash into the oil firm via a put option seem to have dimmed after the two remaining independent members on the company's board stepped down Wednesday. Only independent members of the board can ask Mr. Batista to honor his commitment to invest more in the company, under the terms of the put option contract.
OGX investors are also questioning a $449 million payment to OSX for cancelling contracts to build oil platforms, the person said.
Meanwhile, a minority shareholder in OGX, Marcio de Melo Lobo, asked a Rio de Janeiro court to freeze Mr. Batista's assets, although he hasn't provided details of his case. Mr. Lobo, who owns roughly $17,620 of OGX shares, said in a telephone call he was expecting the Rio judge to rule on the request later Thursday. He said he would only provide more details after the judge's decision.
Sergio Bermudes, a lawyer for Mr. Batista, said Mr. Lobo's case has no legal basis because in Brazil assets can only be frozen in specific types of cases, such as when responsibility has been proven and there's a risk of assets being hidden.
Investors also want an investigation into comments that Mr. Batista made over the years regarding his companies. They say he exaggerated claims about the potential of the companies in his group.
Brazil's market regulator, the CVM, said at the beginning of this month that it would investigate OGX and other companies in the group, but didn't provide any details.
The watchdog so far has been studying press reports about the companies controlled by Mr. Batista and has asked the firms for clarifications of those reports, according to a person familiar with the situation. The CVM is also looking into the facts involving the put option extended by Mr. Batista to OGX, the person said without providing further details.

Good news for me that the best console version is again on the PS4 :)
Shame for XB1 owners, but tbh I don't really give a crap about them, just pleased my version will be the better of the two. It's a lot sweeter when you know you've backed the right companies products, the cheaper product and now you find that you also got the better product.

Don't call it a comeback: Xbox One's first year
One big difference between both companies. One (Sony) aim to innovate and offer new and potentially exciting features to the console, and the other only gives a shit about their profits.
Both share play and remote play are exciting opportunities and something we have never seen before in the console space where as kinect which should have been no different appears to have ditched in favour of more forza, halo, fable, zzzzz. Reply +2

@MeBrains You clearly have one not like some posters in this thread.
Yes competition is generally good for the industry but not when it has a negative impact like we are currently having to endure ;-/
Let's just take a look shall we:
Online fees
Proprietary peripherals
Inflated game prices compared to other platforms (PC)
I'm sure there's more but everything above was implemented last gen and has only got worse this gen :(
Some would argue about game prices but these should have been driven down due to healthy competition but they haven't due to the high licence fees imposed by the manufacturer's. Reply +3
@Caribou And Edz, fair one, I misread your comment. Not that I agree, Sony may have tried their luck if microsofts e3 reveal hadn't tanked so hard.
Firstly thanks for acknowledging your mistake, and secondly just to make my views crystal clear this has absolutely nothing to do with the console wars or whatever you want to call it, this has everything to do with the manufacturer's earning my respect as a consumer. Sony did this with the PS3 by way of offering online gaming for free, rewarding customers for their loyalty and generally eating humble pie over the PS3's lifetime. MS need to learn this as in my opinion they still haven't, and still have the attitude that gamers should be thankful for their business and what they are paying for. A perfect example is the free games every month, why not offer more than your competition, not less (it just feels like they were forced to do it when they didn't want to).
Now we have all the proprietary crap from both manufacturer's which was born from the 360 (new headset, play and charge kit, licenced steering wheels) Money, money, money :( Reply +4
I'm sure everything will be just peachy when Sony have a monopoly on console gaming /copious sarcasm
Copious stupidity more like. Not once did I indicate that I wanted Sony to be only console manufacturer, and I have just as much respect for Nintendo as I do for Sony.
Unfortunately this respect does not extend to money grabbing American corporations like MS. Reply +2
Shame the Xbox One is still selling imo, the sooner MS leave the console scene the better.
Oh well hopefully it will tank next year and we can get some decent competition, run by a company who actually gives a crap about the consumer, not one who wants to bleed gamers dry at every opportunity. Reply +2

If MS make XBL free then I will buy their console tomorrow. But as it sands I cannot justify paying two lots of �40 a year just so I can have both the PS4 & One. Also as the XB One would only be used for exclusives there is no way I want to be paying to play a couple of games a year online. Reply +8
Xbox One price cut by �20 in the UK, now �329
@Suarez07 Strength of the pound has nothing to do with it, it's the same price in the US as it has been from day one. I didn't know about the deal but it appears to be a limited time offer so not really the same. Oh and Americans don't care about Fifa but they could have swapped it out for Madden etc. It just seems that MS are quite happy to ignore their homeland and appease the UK which seems short sighted?
Personally I don't care I think the Xbox brand is garbage. Reply -4
If I was American I would pretty pissed at MS. First the give the UK Fifa 14 free with the launch console. Now they drop the price in the UK.
What have they done for the US customers/potential customers?
Even though Sony delayed the launch of the PS4 in Japan at least they give them a game (Knack) with the console. Reply +3

Eurogamer Expo 2012 blog: our highlights
Popped along Sunday, and overall was very disappointed compared to previous years. No last of us, no bio shock infinite, no forza. The vita section was missing numerous titles and the Wii U offered nothing noteworthy apart from zombieU.

Sony confirms Vita game and memory card prices
Totally amazed that people are surprised at the memory card prices tbh.
Exactly the same as Microsoft did with the 360, give the consumer options. Sony were condemned for not doing this with the ps3 and as such it was too expensive.
Everyone knew and expected that the vita was/is being sold at a loss, so Sony have gone for the safer option rather than box a memory card with the vita and sell it for �300, give people an option based on budget.
If have an issue buy a 2/4 gb card and just use it for game saves, much like the 360 arcade (whatever it was originally called). Reply -1
Play.com reveals Vita launch game prices
Personally I think the vita price is excellent, and have no problem paying �270 for the console and a 16gb memory card. I'm typing this on my �480 iPad2 and don't regret paying for that, so the vita will come in virtually half the price and do virtually everything the iPad does but with the advantage of playing decent games offline and online.
In my eyes it's a bargain..... Reply 0

Twig boring maggots and Spinosad
Hi All!
As some of you know, I have recently planted out a big sample orchard in my backyard. I have peaches, plums, apricots, apriums, cherries, etc. in a small space, BYOC style.
I have been lucky enough not to need any sprays up till now, but the time has come (inevitably).
All the stone fruits are afflicted with a maggot(larve) that is boring into the ends of the new branch growth tips. The tip then wits and dies. Upon opening the removed tip, there is a larve that has burrowed into the tip about 1-2". The peaches and nectarines are effected the most.
My guess is oriental fruit moth? your thoughts?
I just started a spinosad treatment schedule (once a week, total of 5 times) to get rid of the june bugs munching on my leaves, and citrus leaf miner. Will Spinosad prevent new tips from being infected with this maggot?
when should I start this treatment schedule next year as preventative maintainence?
In CA it's probably peach twig borer but you also have OFM. Here it's all PTB.
Here is a link that might be useful: PTB management

Promoting the Nokota® Breed
Nokota® - an unusual word, especially when setting it aside as a breed of horse. Nokota® horses, though not well known about, have been around for centuries, settled in the upper Midwest near Theodore Roosevelt National Park and Medora, N.D. They are know as "wild" breed of horse; however, over of the last couple of decades, people have began to see how these wild horses can make the best companions. Characteristics of the breed include a large diversity. Their height ranges from less than 14 hands to larger than 17 hands. They have distinguishable traits that often compare them to the Spanish Mustangs from which they originated from; these traits include an angular body frame and prominent withers. The primary color of pure-blood Nokotas® is roan, but blue roan is specifically very dominant. "We believe the main color of roan is because of the Native American civilization and their thoughts of it representing the color of the thunderstorm," says Rory Schneider an advocate for the Nokotas®.
Nokota® Documentary
UC-Berkeley student, Lucie Schwartz, filmed this mini-documentary in March 2008. A wonderfully new perspective on the work the Kuntz' have been doing to protect the Nokota® horses for the past 30 years.

An operational amplifier uses p- and n-channel enhancement type MOSFETs as variable input resistors on the inverting and non-inverting legs, respectively, of the amplifier, and the sources and gates of the MOSFETs are tied together. By using VS, the source-to-ground voltage, and VGS, the gate-to-source voltage, as input signals, the device will perform 4-quadrant multiplication at operating frequencies as high as 400MHz.
1. A high frequency 4-quadrant multiplier for receiving two input signals and providing an output proportional to the product of said input signals, and multiplier comprising:
an operational amplifier having first and second input terminals and an output terminal for providing the output of said 4-quadrant multiplier;
variable first and second resistance elements each having an input terminal, an output terminal and a control terminal, the input terminals of said resistance elements being coupled together for receiving a common input signal and the control terminals of each said resistance element being coupled together for receiving a common control signal, the resistance between the input and output terminals of each said resistance element varying in response to said common control signal, the output terminals of said variable first and second resistance elements being coupled to the first and second operational amplifier input terminals, respectively, said common input signal and said common control signal forming the input signals to said 4-quadrant multiplier.
2. A high frequency 4-quadrant multiplier according to claim 1 further comprising a third resistance element coupled between the first input terminal of said operational amplifier and the output terminal of said operational amplifier and a fourth resistance element coupled between the second input terminal of said operational amplifier and a reference voltage.
3. A high frequency 4-quadrant multiplier according to claim 2 wherein the first and second input terminals of the operational amplifier are the inverting and non-inverting input terminals, respectively, of said amplifier.
4. A high frequency 4-quadrant multiplier according to claim 3 wherein said variable first and second resistance elements are complimentary.
5. A high frequency 4-quadrant multiplier according to claim 3 wherein said variable first and second resistance elements are first and second enhancement type MOSFETs and wherein said control terminals are the gates of said MOSFETs.
6. A high frequency 4-quadrant multiplier according to claim 5 wherein said first and second MOSFETs are p-channel and n-channel MOSFETs, respectively.
This invention relates generally to the field of multipliers, and more particularly to a 4-quadrant multiplier capable of operating at frequencies on the order of 400MHz.
Multipliers find a wide variety of potential uses, and are especially important in the present day art of signal processing. However, multipliers have not kept pace with the increase in operating speeds of other semiconductor devices and, as a consequence, we find many of our signal processors are limited by the operating frequencies of the multipliers used therein.
For example, consider the transversal-type adaptive equalizer shown in FIG. 1, the operation of which is well known in the prior art and will not be discussed in detail herein. The equalizer uses two sets of multipliers 10 and 12, the former acting as the weighting elements for the delay taps 14 and the latter acting as correlators for the control algorithm. It can easily be seen that the multipliers 10, 12 are an important part of the system and, although under certain conditions they can be simplified to single or two quadrant multipliers, for the purposes of this application both sets of multipliers will be assumed to be 4-quadrant multipliers.
It is often desirable to operate present day adaptive equalizers, such as that shown in FIG. 1, at frequencies from 10KHz to 10GHz. However, solid state multipliers presently available have bandwidths on the order of 70MHz and, due to the finite output impedances of semiconductor devices, the bandwidth will drop to below 10MHz when a load is added. There is, then, a need for higher frequency multipliers for use in high speed signal processing systems, such as the adaptive equalizer shown in FIG. 1.
Gain variation between individual multipliers in groups 10 and 12 will only affect the rate of convergence of the equalizer and the variation can be compensated for by using a separate error amplifier for each multiplier, rather than the single amplifier 16 shown in FIG. 1. Linearity will also only affect the rate of convergence. Therefore, gain and linearity requirements are quite flexible in the design of such high frequency multipliers.
One example of a high-speed multiplier device is discussed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,368,066. The device described therein uses field-effect transistors, operated in their triode region, as variable input resistors on either input terminal of a difference current amplifier. The drains of the FETs are tied together and each source is connected to a different amplifier input terminal. The voltage applied to the common drain terminal forms one input to the device and the voltage difference between the gate terminals forms the other input. The multiplication properties of the device are derived from the fact that, within the triode or "linear" region of operation, changes in gate voltage or drain voltage will cause proportional changes in drain current. Such a multiplier is unsatisfactory in that reversing the polarity of the drain voltage will cause the current amplifier to saturate, so that the device will only perform two-quadrant multiplication. Furthermore, although the device is referred to as a "fast" multiplier, the patentee states that it will operate at only up to 50MHz.
Another example of a prior art solid-state multiplier is given in U.S. Pat. No. 3,689,752. The multiplier described therein uses a pair of differential amplifiers in order to provide polarity discrimination. However, that device requires two amplifiers and several pairs of transistors and, in addition to having a high manufacturing cost, it will not achieve sufficiently high operating speeds.
Accordingly, it is an object of this invention to provide solid state 4-quadrant multipliers which are capable of operating at frequencies on the order of 400MHz.
The invention comprises an operational amplifier having p- and n-channel MOSFETs as variable input resistors on the inverting and non-inverting legs, respectively, of the amplifier. The sources of the MOSFETs are tied together, as are the gates, and the device will perform as a 4-quadrant multiplier having the common source and common gate terminals, respectively, as the two input terminals, and will be band limited only by the operating frequencies of the operational amplifier and MOSFETs, respectively. The MOSFETs may be operated at frequencies as high as 500MHz and, with the flexible requirements on the gain factor and overall linearity, balanced amplifiers with operating frequencies as high as 500MHz can be realized. Therefore, a solid state 4-quadrant multiplier according to the present invention can be operated at frequencies as high as 400MHz.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a transversal-type adaptive equalizer well known in the prior art;
FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of an ideal operational amplifier circuit well known in the prior art;
FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of a high frequency 4-quadrant multiplier according to the present invention; and
FIG. 4 is a graph of the performance characteristics of the MOSFETs used in the multiplier of FIG. 3.
FIG. 1, as discussed hereinabove, is a block diagram of a transversal-type adaptive equalizer in which the 4-quadrant multiplier according to the present invention may be used. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the example of a transversal-type adaptive equalizer is given for illustrative purposes only, and that there will be various other uses for the high frequency 4-quadrant multiplier according to the present invention.
Referring specifically to the group 10 of multipliers which form the tap weighting elements of the equalizer, each multiplier has a pair of inputs 14 and 18 and a corresponding output 20. In order to equalize high frequency signals appearing at input terminal 22, the multipliers may be required to operate at frequencies as high as a GHz, a rate which is significantly higher than the operating frequencies of presently available multipliers.
Referring now to FIG. 2, there is shown a schematic diagram of an ideal operational amplifier circuit which will aid in the understanding of the theoretical operation of the multiplier according to the present invention.
It is well known in the art that the following relationships are valid for the ideal operational amplifier circuits shown in FIG. 2; ##EQU1## Combining (1) and (2) we have ##STR1##
Keeping in mind the above relationships, refer now to FIG. 3, wherein a schematic diagram of the preferred embodiment of the 4-quadrant multiplier according to the present invention is shown. The multiplier is similar in all respects to the circuit of FIG. 2 except that the two input terminals, 22 and 24 in FIG. 2, have been tied together to form one input terminal 26 and the two input resistors, 28 and 30 in FIG. 2, have been replaced by p-channel and n-channel enhancement-type MOSFETs 32 and 34, respectively. As is well known in the art, a negative voltage at the gate 36 of the p-channel MOSFET 32 will form a channel having resistance R1 between input terminal 38 and output terminal 40. Likewise, a positive voltage n-channel MOSFET 34 will form a channel having resistance R3 between input terminal 44 and output terminal 46 of the n-channel MOSFET 34.
If the MOSFETs are operated in the triode region illustrated in the graph of FIG. 4, they will operate as complimentary voltage-dependent resistors, i.e., only one MOSFET will conduct at any given time depending on the polarity of VGS, and the resistance of the conducting MOSFET will depend on the magnitude of VGS.
The on-resistance between the source and drain of a MOSFET can be expressed as ##EQU2## where VDS = drain to source voltage
IDS = drain to source current
VT = threshold voltage
VGS = gate to source voltage
K = constant determined by the geometry of the device.
If the device is operated in its triode region as shown in FIG. 4, then VT and VDS can be considered much smaller than VGS so that Equation (4) becomes
higher VGS will result in lower RON and K and VGS will always have the same polarity in order that RON be positive. In terms of R3 or R1, Equation (5) can be written as ##EQU3## where KP and KN are K for p- and n-channel MOSFETs, respectively.
For positive VGS, p-channel MOSFET 32 will not conduct and R1 →∞so that the second term in expression (3) becomes zero. Similarly, for negative VGS the first term will be zero. Mathematically the 4-quadrant multiplier output for positive VGS can be expressed as ##EQU4## As R3 = KN /VGS, Eq. (7) become ##EQU5##
For |(R4 /KN)VGS | <<1, Eq. (8) becomes
eo = (VGS R4 /KN) e2 . (9)
Similarly, for VGS negative the output becomes
eo = (-R2 /R1) e1 (10)
As R1 = KP /VGS, Eq. (10) becomes ##EQU6##
Since the conductance channel input terminals 38 and 44 are tied together, e2 and e1 in Equations (9) and (11), respectively, are equal and may be designated merely by e1. Also, we know from Equation (5) that KP must be negative for negative VGS and, therefore, the quantity (-R2 /KP) is a positive constant. By selecting circuit components so that the magnitudes of R4 /KN and R2 /KP are both equal to a fixed value M, Equations (9) and (11) for positive and negative VGS, respectively, may be rewritten as
eo = M VGS el (12)
It will be seen that Equation (12) describes a 4-quadrant multiplier having inputs VGS and e1. The operating frequency of the above multiplier is limited only by the operational amplifier and the two MOSFETs. The latter may be operated at frequencies as high as 500MHz, and operational amplifier may have operating frequencies on the order of 200MHz. Moreover, when the multipliers are to be used in a device such as a transversal type adaptive equalizer where the requirements of gain factor and overall linearity are flexible, balanced amplifiers with operating frequencies close to 500MHz can be realized. This is a substantial improvement over multipliers which are presently available.
While I have shown and described one embodiment of my invention, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that many changes and modifications may be made without departing from my invention in its broadest aspects. It is, therefore, to be understood that the appended claims are intended to cover this and all other such modifications and changes as fall within the true spirit and scope of my invention.

Funny Ratatouille, Die Hard 4, and Sicko
Pixar's "Ratatouille" opened as number 1 movie in America this weekend with the estimated ticket receipts of $50 million. Following this rat race is "Die Hard 4" flick with Bruce Willis which keeps the second spot after opening last Wednesday. Michael Moore's documentary "Sicko" opened in only 441 theaters on Friday, but did exceptionally well in each theater, and holds the 9th place in gross box office receipts. Combine any of the following movies - "Ratatouille", "Die Hard", and "Sicko" - in cross-placing characters, movie scenes, posters, or merging in any other way. You can design the new movie titles or keep the old ones. We will allow any of the "Die Hard" installments to be used, however "Die Hard 4" is preferred. Merging all the three films into one is allowed; or just take any two of them.
