text: We tend to take brand new of everything with us and like others here we do the ziplocks and I have a box that stops things getting squashed. The other thing I take is a medical box with essentials: bonjela /Anbesol, paracetomol ibuprofen plasters bite cream, athletes foot cream (all that walking in trainers) ear drops, toothpicks, cottonwool, earbuds and nail clippers We may need none of these items but it is a comfort to know I have them without the stress if paying OTT prices - DH got a bad ear last year hence ear drops and cottonwool making an appearance in this years box. With the exception of medical and expensive toiletries we also leave left overs when we come back.

(Photo Courtesy: USA Today) Admittedly, Crystal Ball Run isn't normally a source of late-breaking high school baseball news, but then again there's nothing normal about Louisiana high school pitcher Manny Miles. For one, the sophomore from University High School in Baton Rouge is an emerging star, and on Friday night threw his second no-hitter of the 2013 season in a 12-1 victory over Cavalry Baptist High School. However the real story wasn't Manny Miles, so much as the presence of his father in the stands, a man known to the college football world simply as "The Mad Hatter." That man is of course LSU head football coach Les Miles, who was in attendance to see his son's performance on Friday night. And if Miles' reaction on Twitter is any indication, well, he seems to be one proud papa. Fun to be Manny's Dad!! LM — Les Miles (@LSUCoachMiles) May 10, 2013 Cubs have great team chemistry...

The Newport Jazz Festival turned 60 this year, and expanded to three days to celebrate. Throughout last weekend, more than 45 bands performed at Fort Adams State Park in coastal Rhode Island, playing through abundant sunshine, pouring rain and anything in between.
Our photographer Adam Kissick spent long days in the saddle, logging approximately 22 miles on foot while carrying 40 pounds of often-damp gear. In the end, he captured nearly every act at the festival this year — all his photos are available at the NPR Jazz Flickr account. Here's a selection representing how Newport commemorated its 60th anniversary.

Gedankenlab: Structuring a (Hypothetical) PvP rep system.
Last Gedankenlab was about ques and touched on some deeply felt and rather harshly debated issues.
This time, we're going to look at another controversial discussion from the point of view of implementation-one far more likely to eventually (in some form) occur in the world of STO.
a possible PvP "Reputation" system similar in execution to the Omega (STF) and Romulan (Pokemon) reputation systems.
The purpose, as last time, is to dig in, find the flaws in the concept, discuss counters to those flaws, and evaluate whether or not the whole effort is worth it.
Let's go...
Hypothetical PvP Reputation system: Version .001
Availability: Rank 25 (Fed or KDF) all Player Characters
Currency: PvP marks, Commodities, Skill Points
Rewards: PvP Marks awarded for specific PvP activities, with additional rewards for win/loss as follows..
a) 5 PvP marks for each instance in a War zone (Ker'rat, N'Vak, etc.)
b)15 PvP marks for each victory in Arena(team win)5 PvP marks for each Loss
c)15 PvP marks for each victory in Capture&Hold(team win)5 PvP marks for each loss
d) all marks totals double during certain assigned hours of the day ("Event Hours")
Tier 1: Bekk/Ensign
45 PvP marks (Split 3 ways)
90 Skill/expertise points
10 Shields battery
10 weapons battery
10 Large Hypo
a) Passive ability (Choose)
i)+10% shield strength buff for 5 seconds (proc chance 1.5%) to personal shields
ii) +10% resistance to holds (ground), Proc chance 2.5%
b)Costume item (faction appropriate)
Tier 2: Sargeant/LT
140 PvP marks (split 6 ways)
180 skill/expertise points (total)
30 Engine Battery
30 Large Shield Charge
20 Minor Regenerator
10 Minor Components
i) +10% to Shield regen (Proc 1.5%) vs. (choose) Phaser, Disruptor, Tetryon, Polaron (only one energy type)
ii) 1.5% chance to bypass shields with faction-specific weapons (aka Phaser/Disruptor) in space combat
b)Faction Specific costume item
Tier 3: Captain/Lt.
560 PvP marks
730 skill/expertise points
60 Minor Regenerator
60 Large Hypo
40 Minor Components
30 Large Power cell
20 Med. hypo
a) Passives
i)+5% HP regeneration rate (3% proc) when in combat
ii)+5% Damage using faction weapons (Phaser/Disruptor) in ground combat
b)Faction specific costume item
c)PvP Store (15000 Dil. and 225 PvP points to unlock) "Advanced Combat Items:Ground" (Mk VIII to Mk X) Purple quality gear (Account unlock)
Tier 4: Major/Commander
6800 PvP marks
2920 skill/expertise
60 Major components
120 minor components
10 Critical components
120 Shields batteries
120 Engine Batteries
120 Weapons Batteries
30 MkI Torpedo Launchers
30 MkI Phaser/Disruptor
5 Tactical Duty Officers(white quality)
5 Science Duty Officers(white quality)
i)"Free Action"-2.5% chance to ignore the effects of Disable/Holds from tractor beams, warp plasma, subsystem targeting, boarding parties, etc. (Proc)
ii)"Certain Strike" 2.5% chance to inflict random system disable with energy weapons fire(Proc) per subsystem targeting (but not requiring it, ability should stack WITH SST)
b)Costume Item (faction appropriate)
c)PvP Store: Space, Purple quality equipment MkVIII to MKXI (ACCx3, or ACCx2+CritH), Ground store opens MkXI equipment.
d)Select 1 Purple quality Duty officer (from a list)
e) Faction appropriate costume item
Tier 5: Dahar Master/Commodore
27200 PvP marks
116800 Expertise/skill points
10 Critical regenerators
120 Major Regenerators
240 Minor Regenerators
240 Large Hypo
240 Large Power cell
240 Large Shield Charge
10 Critical Regenerators
a)Costume Unlock: Dahar Master Greatcoat/Starfleet Commodore Long Coat
b)Select 2 Purple quality Duty officers
c)select 1 purple quality Bridge officer
d)PvP Store: Elite (mkXII purple items both ground, and space)
The costs for the higher tiers are INTENDED to be expensive and difficult to obtain-at 15 marks for a win, 5 for a loss, and that many required, a LOT of matches need to be played to get anywhere in this system.
The 'costume items' should be both faction appropriate and...Unique. When a toon steps into Drozana sporting a Greatcoat, it should be something you can't just go buy with Lobi or zen, or ec or whatever-it's a mark that THIS player not only PvP's, but is GOOD at it.
The items in the "PvP store" likewise are things that work better in PvP than they do in, say, PvE-the focus on bonus accuracy isn't necessary against mud-slow Borg or Tholian opponents driven by the AI, but IS of use fighting other PLAYERS. I deliberately focused on things that PvPers might buy-batteries, charges, hypos, from tiers 1 through 3, with STF gear (regenerators, starship components sets) for tiers 4 and 5 on the assumption that by opening the system at level 25, players would want to advance their lowbie toons through the first 3 levels in order to afford the higher levels of rep (and because the passives, while relatively weak, are pretty powerful all told. Not as powerful as the un-rebalanced Omega T4 shields, but still...) The Tier 4 passives focus on movement and damage/debuff, two areas which most PvP'ers are very familiar with...
I expect y'all have better suggestions than what I came up with-it was 'gee I need to fill this space with something players might think is kinda cool, without duplicating the same **** from the other two systems... and without breaking the game."
I did use a difference between the winners and losers in this system, with an "I participated" 5 points for Ker'rat runs-meaning that for meaningful advancement in this hypothetical system, a player would pretty much HAVE to play a lot of PvP, in the ques, against teams with roughly equal strength (aka 5 on 5). AFK'ers may still get a little bit, but they won't get much, and those that punch out/quit don't get diddly squat.
So...tear it apart, find the pieces that work and the ones that don't, analyze, flame, etc. etc.
I'm at work ATM but all I can say is... Those passive combined with the already available passives... Suck.
Very bad for pvp, that "phaser proc" passive is an insanely bad idea.
I maintain there can be no good results of adding a pvp reputation system that includes passives without further damaging the game.
It needs to be all costume rewards and store unlocks. That's the only way a pvp reputation system can work.
You get an "A" for effort though :)
another question is why the hell do we want another rep to grind for? i'm not even done with the omega or rommies reps yet
I admit though, that maicake716 has a point about balance-but I don't SEE much evidence that the continuing power-creep in the game is going to abate-one of the reasons I set this up to start at L25 instead of 50, is to assist newer players/toons in becoming at least marginally competitive by the time they're at L50 against "admirals' who've spent the last half year alternating between STF and the PvP ques. (Now STF, Romulan "content" and PvP ques).
For instance, I have characters on both sides of the S7 dividing line-one on the pre-S7 and one Post-S7, and their ability to compete not only in PvP but also in PvE at the same level is UTTERLY unbalanced by Legacy gear and access to effective weapons that now require a massive investment "endgame" in order to obtain, which in turn demands a huge amount of grinding.
I suspect the costs at T4 of this proposed system are LOWER, esp. if a player's been working this while levelling a new toon, and at T5, less burdensome since instead of having to go through 50 levels (or 25 for KDF) before you can even start, a hypothetical toon that's started in this system will BE competitive by 50 (say, Tier 3 or 4), with or without STF gearing.

Article first published online: 25 MAR 2015 | DOI: 10.1111/gbb.12211
This study describes a novel training protocol to assess phasic/sustained fear in freely behaving mice, using freezing and/or fear-potentiated startle as measures of fear. Findings are that (1) a motion sensitive platform enables measurement of startle responses in freely behaving mice, (2) absence or presence of startle stimuli during retrieval as well as unpredictability of a given threat determine phasic/sustained fear response profiles and(3) both freezing and startle responses indicate phasic/sustained components of fear, with sustained freezing reflecting unpredictability of conditioned stimulus (CS)/unconditioned stimulus (US) pairings.

Lawn mower won't start
Craftsman 6.25 HP 21" blade Briggs and Straton Motor
model: 917.378860
I'm having issues with my push behind mower. It worked fine few weeks ago. When I went to start it about a week ago it ran for about 5 seconds then just died. Started back up for about a second and then immediately died. Now it won't even start.
I've been reading and searching the past week and can't seem to fix it. Things I've tried:
1. Checked for spark and has good spark
2. Completely removed carb and cleaned inside and out. Removed float, needle, bowl, nut and cleaned with carb cleaner. They were pretty much spotless to begin with but used twisty tie wire to clean all the little passages.
3. Sanded down flywheel and clutch legs as they were kinda rusted.
4. Checked fuel line from tank to carb and it flows just fine.
5. Watched through throttle plate as I primed and it is pulling fuel in. What is weird is that when I spray carb cleaner into the carb when the air filter is removed I can get it start for a split second but then it dies.
Anyone have any other ideas on what could be causing this or what I can try?
Thanks for the help!
Yes I have done that several times. There was no gunk in it at all but I did clean the 2 holes near the threads and the one on the top with a fine wire. Any other suggestions?
Another thing to note, it does not start when I use the priming bulb however I can see gas coming up out of the spout. It only works if I spray carb cleaner deeper inside.

Stop wasting your time trying to clean the carb, A new one is about $40-45 and attempting to clean all the passages without a sonic cleaner is next to impossible. save yourself from the frustration and buy a new carb, You mentioned the primer so for that engine with primer carb the PN sould be 799868 and runs about $40, check amazon, Lawnmower Partsman is a great dealer on there. Hope this helps Good luck
A couple of things. One, is the fuel you are using gasoline? If you can see it inside the carb venturi and it either can't burn it or draw it in -that might lead you to a way to go.Two, if you were to remove the bowl and unclamp the fuel line, do you get a steady stream of fuel? If not- new float valve kit. Three, the intake manifold (tube) and seals secured and not cracked?
Thanks for the replies! Was ready to order a new carb off amazon for $30 but decided to take the carb completely off again and clean it for the 2nd time instead of just cleaning the bowl/nut. Seems to be working fine now. If it acts up again will just replace teh entire carb assembly.
Thanks again for the advice!

Prince William and Kate Middleton's Wedding Cake Detail
Royal Wedding Cake Details Revealed!
One month before their nuptials are set to take place, the world is abuzz with curiosity about details of Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding. Today we've learned what their regal wedding cakes will look like. Kate has chosen a fruitcake to be the main wedding cake — perhaps an odd choice in America, but a traditional one across the pond. Its designer will be Fiona Cairns, a well-respected cake creator known for her bold designs.
Although further details of the cake "will be a surprise," says Cairns, we do know this: It'll be tall and tiered, and covered in cream-and-white decorative flowers that not only mimic the architecture of Buckingham Palace but also each represent something meaningful. For instance, the cake will include roses for England, shamrocks for Ireland, acorns for strength, and sweet William flowers as well.
Although both sound incredible, I'd spring for William's in a heartbeat. Which cake would you rather eat?

On August 25th Cisco hosted an Investor Relations Conference and issued several press releases related to the ASR 9000 platform. I was able to interview Praveen Akkiraju, Vice President and General Manager of Cisco's Core Router Business Unit, to discuss some of what was shared and announced.Cisco just announced a 16x10GE line card for the ASR 9000 – why is this important?
For our customers, this is very significant. The use of video and mobile Internet is growing at a staggering rate. By 2013, the sum of all forms of video such as TV, video-on-demand, Internet video, and peer-to-peer will exceed 90 percent of global consumer traffic, according to the Cisco Visual Networking Index. The introduction of this new Ethernet line card unlocks massive capacity from the 400Gbps/slot Cisco ASR 9000.As you can see in this video, this new card demonstrates that we can go well beyond the 100Gbps/slot barrier. This means our customers can meet traffic demands in a system that reduces their capital and operational expenses. With up to 128x10GE ports per system, we're two to three times greater than what other vendors can provide. Plus, customers have the headroom to grow up to 320x10GE or 32x100GE per system for a total of 6.4 terabits per second of total capacity.However, growth for the future is not just about speed and port density. It's about adding greater scale along with integrated service delivery. When coupled with an ability to intelligently triage traffic according to priority, the Cisco ASR 9000 further delivers on its vision as a platform engineered for the coming "zettabyte era." With the new card we continue to incorporate high-performance QoS with up to 2M queues per system, integrated netflow, video performance monitoring, and synchronous Ethernet for mobile backhaul. Integrating these services into the platform provides service providers with the true performance they require for today and for future needs. Read More »

Views from the Top
Competition among technology companies for the global service provider market is as fierce as ever and is generating more and more attention from Wall Street, and for good reason. Because unlike businesses which look at the network as context to their business, the network is a service provider's business. They depend on this technology to offer an ever increasing array of service offerings and invest heavily each year to do so.Such investment isn't made haphazardly though – these are tough customers with a staggering array of expertise, so the choices they make are often key barometers about the future of the technology market itself.

Networking in Cabool area
Anyone in the Cabool, MO area that's into seed-swapping, off-grid living, organic gardening or just the simple lifestyle, please give me a holler. I am new to the area, moving from TN. I'm an old guy, 63 and love to talk gardening and etc. I guess this means I better post my "have" list of seeds...
Welcome Rockguy! I remember you posted when you were getting ready to move. Glad to hear you've gotten settled in.
If you click on "Member Pages" in the green bar at the bottom of the page, then "Edit your exchange list" you can list the seeds/plants you have and want.
What kinds of seeds are you looking for mostly?
Thanks Christie. I keep enough seeds for my regular crops, so what I'm looking to trade for would be something more unusual. It can be veggie or flower, as long as the flowers are not the high-maintenance kind. I'm too busy in summer to dead-head etc, just to have blooms.
Welcome Rockguy...I too transplanted here to the Ozarks a few years ago from Florida....not too sure about that "off grid" living you are talking about. I don't know what I'd so without a/c in the summertime. I lived in Springfield for about six months and then made my way up to the lake of the ozarks. Love being around the water. I have a bunch of flower seeds that I harvested this year and I'd be happy to send you. Hollyhocks, cosmos, marigolds, zinnias, mostly stuff that will attract bees, butterflies and humingbirds. Send me your address and I'll get a bunch in the mail to you. If you can use them great, if not trade them off. Welcome to the Fourm
What do you mean old guy at 63? I also love my electricity, but I have a mama bear wood stove just in case. I love to get near a wood stove when it is cold. I try to be fairly organic but I resort to the bad stuff when other measures don't work. I do not believe in spraying for everything. A few holes or bugs don't bother me. When I buy corn some worms on the end is reassuring that it wasn't sprayed. I haul in grass clippings, and leaves that others throw away. Are you a city guy who moved to the country or have you always lived this way?
RockGuy, did you get your lawn work done?
Also, if you want to start your own Sweet Potatoe cuttings, I have a bunch of small ones I'm planning on trying to winter over to start mine--I'll share if you want.
I ordered my cuttings from Steele Plant Farm this spring, have 4 types--but the roots? all I know is one type in light skinned, but they're all good, regardless of type!
ceresone~ I'm not sure what you mean about "Lawn work". Must have been something I said, but I don't have any lawn, as such. I have very little grass and I'd like to be rid of that.
Sweet potato cuttings- tempting but I doubt I could keep them alive thru winter in a wood-heated cabin. Maybe closer to spring I will swap you something for a few. Thanks for the offer tho, I do like a good sweet potato! :)
RockGuy, sure hope they survive with wood heat--we have a fireplace insert. Central heat and air--but due to the price of gas, we just use the wood insert.
The sweet potatoes are just that--the sweet potatoes, starts will have to be started from them, I figure about Feb. or March--anyone know how long it takes to form cuttings? My first year for this.
I have half a little wagon full of small Sw. Pot.
Maybe it was odd jobs you wanted done? LOL--my old age brain's on overload!
In the past I have started sweet potatoes inside (in water)and it seems like a month before I'd see much growth. Spider mites were a problem in the dry indoors too. I sprayed with clear water to help keep down the numbers. Once you set them outside, SM's don't seem to bother them.

Optimal Binders Full of Fail
Progressives are not having a good week.
After a debate "victory" for President Obama, which amounted to simply being caffeinated because the bar was set so low after the first debate, his Libya lies are still haunting him. Yes, moderator Candy Crowley saved his bacon in the moment, but she ended up costing him by forcing a reluctant media to continue to cover the story. He may have won the night, but he lost the week because of it.
Had the president simply taken responsibility for his administration's security failures, apologized, said it would haunt him and shape his actions from that moment forward to ensure it never happened again, this scandal would be done. But narcissists don't man-up because they can't admit they've made mistakes.
Instead, we had Secretary of State Hillary Clinton accept responsibility the day before the debate, which forced the man in charge to. Thus, five weeks after the murder of Ambassador Chris Stevens and three others, five weeks after lying about denying repeated pleas for more security, five weeks after muddying blame by demonizing an innocent American who made a video — with nowhere else to go and no way to continue to hide behind Hillary's pantsuit — the president finally took responsibility. Then he lied about having called it a terrorist attack.
That was the story after the debate. So whatever victory he had that night was wiped away by the reality of failed leadership and his callously calling the murder of 4 Americans "not optimal."
Even debate night, as his media allies did their touchdown dance, polls showed Mitt Romney destroyed the president on every issue.
CNN's snap poll had Obama with a 46 percent to 39 percent advantage but found people supported Romney's answers on the issues they cared about most:
On the economy it was Romney, 58-40.
On health care, it was Romney, 49-46.
On taxes, Romney, 51-44.
On the deficit, Romney, 59-36.
If that's: what a debate victory looks like for Obama, may he win them all.
As if that wasn't bad enough, to build on his "win," the president and his allies set about trying to mock Romney for this "binders of women" comment.: And it backfired.
Democrats must think women are stupid enough to think Romney actively seeking out qualified women through collecting three-ring binders of resumes means he's a sexist. Especially when the Obama administration pays women 18 percent less than men.
But progressives seem to think women can be bought off like a puppy, with free birth control pills as milk bones. The mentality that all you need to do is feed women a can of contraception kibble and they'll be loyal is the real war on women.
Sandra Flukes of the world aside, most women would like a job and the ability to buy not only their own contraception, but whatever else they want. But progressives see Americans, particularly women and minorities, as special needs children being bullied on the schoolyard of life. They have no faith in the individual's ability to succeed, to thrive.
But people aspire, women aspire. No amount of handouts can suffocate human nature in everyone.
As the week continued, the desperation grew.
The week of failure culminated in the president reciting the cheesy accusation Mitt Romney suffers from "Romnesia" — the inability to remember past positions. This from the man who promised to cut the deficit in half his first term, who hasn't signed a budget in more than three years, who called adding $4 trillion to the national debt in eight years "unpatriotic" … then racked up nearly $6 trillion in four years; who promised unemployment at 5.3 percent and delivered 43 straight months of 8 percent or higher. Perhaps he's suffering from "Obamnesia"?
Considering his campaign got this childish theme from a: homophobic leftist who calls Republicans "traitors,": President "New Tone" not only thinks women are stupid, he hopes everyone is.
Just when you thought progressives couldn't get any dumber — enter MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell.
Mitt Romney's son, Tagg, was asked how he feels when he hears the president call his father a liar. Tagg had the natural reaction of anyone who loves their father and said he'd like to hit him, but that he's not going to because that's how politics is.
O'Donnell, a child of privilege who attended an exclusive private school, then Harvard,: put on his best fake Boston accent to challenge Tagg to a fight.: It was always clear O'Donnell was a waste of human flesh with desperation for attention and relevance wrapped around him like flies around a horse's ass. Now it's clear he's a cowardly creature comprised of what drops uncontrollably out of the place those flies circle.
Maybe O'Donnell didn't love his father, and maybe his children don't love him the way normal people love their families (and who could blame them?), but this was a new level of pathetic even for him.
But just like "binders" and "Romnesia," desperate times inspire desperate measures.
President Obama, Lawrence O'Donnell and their progressive brethren have nothing to offer and bring nothing to the table but an inability to learn from their failures. They read their own press releases and believe them. They also write them first.
President Obama could have avoided his current situation by simply not being an epic failure as president, but O'Donnell simply isn't bright enough to have avoided his fate. Let's hope more voters than not, particularly in swing states such as Ohio, see through this fog of feces from the left and vote against a life of servitude to government.
As the election draws closer, progressive's lies will grow more desperate. They can't defend the president's record, which is why he doesn't even try; they can't offer a positive agenda for the future, which is why the president hasn't even bothered. All they have are childish slogans and pranks that would make junior high school students shake their heads.
The last true thing President Obama said may have been in 2008: when he said, "[I]f you don't have any fresh ideas, then you use stale tactics to scare the voters. If you don't have a record to run on, then you paint your opponent as someone people should run from." When the "hope" has changed and your word is deemed worthless, it's no longer "optimal" to do anything but smear.

Transmeta: So Now We Know
The old paradigm was waste watts and transistors. The New paradigm will be waste bandwidth and save watts.George Gilder
Yesterday, after four and a half years as the most secretive company in technology - a company better known for one of its engineers than for any of its products - Transmeta finally held a formal introduction of its products and itself at Villa Montalvo in Saratoga, California.
And the story was mostly about chips. Not about Linux, or Linus.
Well, we knew that. What we didn't know was how little it was about Linux. At least on the surface. (At a deeper level it was very much about Linux, as we shall soon see.) The whole rollout took better than two hours, and Linus only appeared once, to demonstrate how perfectly Linux could run a Quake game on a Transmeta box. (He said "If I lose, don't blame the operating system," then got creamed in a matter of seconds by an opponent on Windows who was coincidentally a Quake developer.)
The presentation was led by David Ditzel, Transmeta's founder and CEO. Also presenting were Jim Chapman, VP of Sales and Marketing; Doug Laird, VP of Product Development; and Mark Allen, President and COO. All four are Chip Guys. Ditzel especially has a long and distinguished career in microprocessor design. He co-authored the RISC concept with David Patterson at UC-Berkeley in 1980, and led Sun Microsystems' SPARC development work. Laird also came to Transmeta from the Sun SPARC management team. Chapman was VP of sales for Cyrix. And Allen's chip background was at nVidia and Cypress Semiconductor.
But Transmeta is equally a software company, and that's where Linux fits in--literally. Only Linux has two attributes that make it the ideal OS for a new class of "mobile Internet appliances" that feature the screen of a laptop (or smaller), the mass of a notepad (or less) and the battery life of a Walkman (or better). Those attributes are: 1) it can fit into Flash ROM; and 2) the market demands it.
Of course, the market also demands Windows. So Transmeta introduced two new microprocessors: one to run Linux and one to run Windows, the TM 3120 and TM 5400, respectively. The Linux version is the smaller and less power-hungry of the two, and is meant to serve as the brains for a new class of consumer electronic goods that browses the Web. The Windows version is meant to compete against Intel and its clones in the lightweight mobile notebook computer market. In other words, Linux hosts the sexier category.
Both versions have little appetite for battery power. Thanks to VLIW (Very Long Instruction Word) processing, "Code Morphing" software translation and LongRun™ power management, Transmeta chips might run all day at up to 700 MHz without breaking a sweat--and hibernate for weeks as well. While the hottest Intel microprocessors might soak up a hundred watts, a Crusoe processor might use a single watt at the same clock speed, and then a few thousandths of a watt (20 mw, they say) in sleep mode.
Doug Laird impressed the audience with videos that demonstrated how Crusoe "learns" what an application is doing, working constantly to reduce battery consumption while giving the application all the processing power it needs. He also showed photographs that made an Intel chip look like you could fry an egg on it, while the competing Transmeta chip looked cool as an ice cube. To be fair, the actual temperatures involved were 221.9° and 118.8°, both Fahrenheit. But between the two was a far more significant difference: the Transmeta chip didn't need a fan or a big heat sink.
The biggest advantage for Transmeta is in the smaller, lighter, "Mobile Linux" systems. A conventional notebook computer spreads power demands across the display, the disk drives and other components. In a Web "pad" or "slate" there are no drives, no fans and in most cases a smaller, less-demanding screen as well. This means that most of the power is budgeted to the CPU. Here, Transmeta has no competition. Intel's Celeron eats batteries too fast, and the company's StrongARM isn't x86 compatible. Nor are PowerPC and other processors that aspire to low power consumption offering much competition. So, when Ditzel said "if it has a battery and a browser, it's going to be built with Crusoe," it seemed a very credible claim. (For a deeper look at these issues, check out analyst Linley Gwennap's report "Transmeta: A Revolution in Action.")
The Q&A that followed was almost surreal. The four Chip Guys sat on high stools, taking turns answering questions and holding the two chips up for the cameras, which were wielded by a dozen paparazzi who treated the tiny goods as if they were corpses of Princess Di. My question, which I was amazed nobody had asked earlier, was "Why the secrecy?" Especially when, I noted, there was no demand for it. Ditzel's answer was deft. Over the years, he said, he learned there is "a difference between hype and buzz," and that Transmeta's strategy was successful at generating the latter while isolating the company from the former.
Naturally, all the Linux folks wondered exactly what "Mobile Linux" is. Ditzel understated the matter in his opening statements, noting with sweet irony, that "we have a certain amount of expertise with the Linux OS." In the engineering press conference that followed the official introduction, Linus let on that Mobile Linux is "a small distribution" both for Transmeta and OEMs. He also seemed to agree that his professional preoccupations with mobile computing have a natural influence on Linux evolution. He had more to say about that in a private interview later in the day. That will be the subject of my next report.

Interns are treated like regular employees. Lots of great projects to choose from, and opportunity to drive and own some pretty interesting segments.
None that I could think of, perhaps the fact that campuses are located far apart. However, relocation money is provided.

Intel innovates technically in the US. They are industry leaders in certain areas, particularly manufacturing and high end processor design. They are capable of reinventing themselves when markets deem it necessary. There are tons of talented people working there.Cons
Too many people. Everything becomes a battle for territory. Many jobs are extremely narrowly defined. Work culture can be downright hostile. As with any big company you need the right manager, the right position, and the right group to get a good experience.Doesn't RecommendApproves of CEO

I worked at Intel CorporationPros
Intel allows freshly minted engineers to put their money where their mouth is and innovate. For someone who enjoys self guided work, there is a lot of opportunity to demonstrate excellence and receive meritous acknowledgement of your contribution. You will have a chance to prove yourself and then some.Cons
The quick turns on a product cycle lead meant constant long hours for all engineering staff that frankly didn't end. Pagers and after hours calls are a practical reality of the job. There is remarkably little engagement with the factories until it's time for a tech transfer, which dissociates some of the practical decision making from the engineering novelty. Also, it appeared that there was relatively high "job shift" for incoming engineers to roles outside of development due to a high rate of early burn out.Advice to ManagementAdvice
It's far more expensive to retrain and recruit talent than it is to describe job functions where people are incentivized to develop within their roles. Consider rotating manufacturing and development engineering roles with each process revision to ensure CIP efforts are driven back through the process, and "repeat" problems are mitigated- not just documented.RecommendsApproves of CEO

The Chennai Corporation on Wednesday commenced work on gantry girders and signboards on roads at a cost of Rs.12.22 crore.
Inspecting the work on Sardar Patel Road, Mayor M.Subramanian said, "The facilities would be of use to tourists and other visitors to the city. Work on installation of such facilities in 5,000 locations across the city will be completed in 45 days."
The Tamil names of places on signboards and signage have been cleared by a panel that included eminent Tamil professors. The project, taken up in three packages, includes traffic signage with retro-reflective material and stainless steel nameboards.
Mr. Subramanian said the gantry girders with signboards would be installed on 239 bus route roads and traffic junctions. Stainless steel nameboards would be put up on 1,083 streets. Signage depicting significant landmarks, places of worship, school zone, no entry area, no horn, right turn or left turn and other relevant information would be placed in 3,957 locations. The signage would be installed according to the norms of the Indian Roads Congress and ensure uniformity across Indian cities.
Officials of the Corporation said the new signboards on gantries, with blue background and white letters, would ensure optimum visibility for motorists. The retro-reflective boards with international standards would last for at least 15 years. Corporation Commissioner D.Karthikeyan was present.
