23 Apple Watch Apps That Want To Change The Way You Travel
Thu, 23 Apr 2015 13:35:50
Our Offices
The city or the country? We have both! Our Norwalk CT office offers all the access you need to New York City without having to live there (and without the expense). Just 50 miles away, The Big Apple is less than an hour away by train or car. Prefer the fast paced life of living in the city? You can easily commute from NYC to our Norwalk HQ, or, if you prefer, look at opportunities we have in our Mid-Town Manhattan office.
Giving Back
Giving back to the community is at the core of what we do. Our charity committee, led by our employees, is always looking for organizations and events that need our help. From packing lunches for children in need, to walking for "Make-A-Wish," we align with organizations that are making a difference in people's lives.
Our Commercials
The negotiator, and now his daughter too, have been delivering travel deals to the people for the past 15 years! They've scaled buildings, joined motorcycle gangs and even spent time in the frozen tundra in a Russian Gulag. He even survived a fiery bus crash! Take a look at what they are up to now, and see some other fun videos, including some "inside looks" at what it is like to work for priceline.com
CEO Corner
Our success was founded on a single, radical new idea. We want an environment that honors this legacy by encouraging individuals and teams to simply ask "why not?" We want employees who continually challenge themselves to look at things differently, seek a better way, and know they have the freedom to do so. That's how we succeeded, and it's how we improve."
- Chris Soder
A Word from Our CMO
The Negotiator campaign has one of the highest brand awareness scores in the industry due to the efforts of a world-class marketing team, the power of the brand, and an extraordinary mix of creative talent fueled by analytics. With the arrival of mobile, we now have more opportunities to advertise online with world class brands partners. That requires more data, more people, and more thought around how you create and manage data driven campaigns in the offline and online world."
- Brett Keller
A Word from Our CIO
Priceline.com thrives on the spirit of an entrepreneur. Our engineers are not like an object remaining in motion, where they perform tasks following the same routine until instructed to stop. At Priceline.com we look for engineers with a creative drive and the desire to challenge the laws of physics. At Priceline.com we are never satisfied with the status-quo, we are always innovating. Technology is a journey not a destination. Everything changes over time. Priceline.com lives off the idea that if we are not changing fast enough we will be left behind by the companies that are investing in change. The best tools today are actually platforms, opening the APIs and letting everyone bring their imagination and skills to work and build the best travel platform in the world."

Vehicle type | Civilian car |
Body style | 4-door sedan |
Capacity | 4 (driver and 3 passengers) |
Appearance(s) | GTA IV |
Manufacturer | Imponte (HD Universe) |
Not to be confused with the DFT-30, a truck existing in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
The Imponte DF8-90 is a vehicle in Grand Theft Auto IV. It is a four-door sedan, and is fairly uncommon in traffic.
This car has a highly debatable design, however it takes many design cues from the Pontiac G6 (main styling/shape, and the bottom of the front clip), the 1999-2005 Pontiac Grand Am (the greenhouse/roof), the Saturn Ion (the shape of the back doors); although the headlights look close to the ones on an Ion, judging by the narrowness, they are closer to the 2006-2011 Honda Civic; the taillights look somewhat like that of the 2000-2005 Pontiac Bonneville (the reverse lights integrated on the strip with "IMPONTE" on it seems similar to the ones on the 1995-1999 Chevrolet Luminas, the actual strip itself is closer to the Bonneville). The black-tinted roof and rear lights that run the length of the car are inspired from the Subaru SVX. The platform itself is closely related to that of the Pontiac G8. The dashboard features red lighting, a Pontiac trademark.
Despite its near similar design, the DF8-90 is available in three different variants, each identifiable by the presence of a spoiler or the type of spoilers used, and their badges on the trunk lid. The base variant, which has no apparent indication of what engine it has, has no spoiler, the 3.8 liter Supercharged V6 Sport variant, however, features a basic spoiler, while the top-of-the-line 5.3 liter Supercharged V8 Turbo (Imponte Racing) variant features a larger curved spoiler. Otherwise, all three variants share exactly the same body and range of body colors, and handling.
Acceleration is respectable, with 0-60 mph manageable in 6.5 seconds, and is among the best in its class (RWD 4-door sedans). The high-output engine, coupled to a 5-speed gearbox with a smooth powerband gives the DF8-90 a high top speed of 192 mph (309 km/h), while the V8 Turbo variant can reach 200 mph (320 km/h). The powerful engines on all models make this car easy to slide/oversteer, and as a result can drift and powerslide very easily while being controllable.

Handling wise, although it sacrifices ride, it makes up for it by being very good with avoidance maneuvers and scores above average, not far in top speed to far more expensive vehicles. Accident deformation is good, considering it's rather sporty nature, but it isn't the best. The cabin holds up well and the same goes for the roof. The DF8-90 can sustain multiple frontal impacts before becoming un-drivable or catching fire.
Notable owners
A DF8-90 is requested as part of Stevie's Car Thefts, featuring a uniquely light blue body color, but may appear in the form of any of the car's three variants. As a new DF8-90 will re-spawn at the same spot until the player delivers one to S&M Auto Sales, the player can save one at their safe-house before delivering another.
- In GTA IV, the V8 Turbo DF8-90 shares its trunk spoiler with the Primo V8 Supercharged.
- This is one of the best vehicles to use when attempting the Swing Glitch.
- The two default radio stations in the DF8-90 are IF99 - International Funk and K109 The Studio.
- A glitch may sometimes allow for the blue DF8-90 required for Stevie's Car Thefts to continue spawning under Hove Beach subway station even after all deliveries are complete. This one, however, will not retain its paint job after being resprayed.
- The DF8-90 shares its interior with the Bravado Feroci.
- Ilyena Faustin owns a unique white version with a black soft-top, and it will respawn at Mikhail Faustin's mansion until he is killed. After his death, only a randomly colored Turismo will spawn in the driveway.
GTA IV + Episodes from Liberty City
- The DF8-90s can be spotted rarely in traffic in South Slopes, Firefly Projects, Firefly Island, Hove Beach, Beachgate, and Beechwood City, Broker, Westdyke, and Alderney City, Alderney and Lower Easton, The Triangle, and Chinatown, Algonquin
- A parked DF8-90 without black-tinted roof can be found in a parking lot under the train tracks in the Hove Beach area in Broker as part of a stolen car delivery mission for Stevie. It sells for approximately $5,500 at Stevie's garage in Bohan.
- The DF8-90 also spawns in the driveway of Mikhail Faustin's mansion in front of the Turismo after you start a mission from him. It will spawn for all Faustin missions, except Final Destination.

The Nats take yet another crack at Tim Hudson tonight at Turner Field.
Well, the Nationals are making a roster move today, just not the potential one we were discussing earlier. Josh Willingham will apparently go on the DL tomorrow, at which point Nyjer Morgan will be activated (tomorrow's the first day he's eligible).
Today's move is one that will probably get fans excited: Wilson Ramos has been recalled from Class AAA Syracuse because Wil Nieves is heading back to D.C. to be with his wife, Yormarie, who is due to give birth to a baby girl in the next few days. Ramos, acquired from the Twins in the Matt Capps trade, hit .317 with two homers, six RBI and an .833 OPS in 15 games at Syracuse. This, however, will just be a quick cameo appearance with the Nats. Ramos is expected to be around only until Nieves returns within a couple of days. He will, however, return when rosters expand on September 1.
Ramos isn't in tonight's lineup — Ivan Rodriguez starts and bats fifth, answering our other question from earlier — but I suspect he'll be in there for tomorrow's getaway day game.
Another tough challenge tonight for the Nationals, who face their arch-nemesis, Tim Hudson (owner of a 10-1 record and 1.49 ERA in 16 career starts against this franchise). Hudson's lone loss against the Nats came on June 5, 2006, when he gave up five runs in the sixth thanks to base hits by Brian Schneider, Marlon Anderson, Jose Vidro and Damian Jackson. Wow. The winning pitcher that night, though, was Livan Hernandez, who will again oppose Hudson tonight.
I'm not in Atlanta for this series, but please continue the conversation with each other…

Hoping for a little help for the community. I've got some mates travelling from here in Australia to New York in late Sept. Obviously they want to go to a ball game, and it happens to be Yankees v Red Sox while they are in NYC. On the Yankees website, the cheapest ticket is USD$300. That's a little rich for us Aussies. Is StubHub the best bet for legit tickets? They don't want to go to a scalper and find they never see their ticekts.
- BQ - Aug 19, 2010 at 12:26 AM
I am trying really hard to like Dunn and find reasons to keep him on the team but he is trying his best to convince me otherwise. Anyways, for second straight nights, out SP couldn't hold the lead. I am so mad. Livan, you are better than this.
- Sunshine_Bobby _Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_For_Me - Aug 19, 2010 at 12:28 AM
StubHub is a very safe, professionally run site. I've never had a problem. Having said that, between the seller's markup, stubhub's handling charge and the FedEx delivery charge, those $300 face value Yankee tickets aren't looking that unreasonable. Enjoy the states and good-day, Mates!
- Sunshine_Bobby_Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_For_Me - Aug 19, 2010 at 12:31 AM
@BQ: It wasn't Livan's fault that Adam Freakin' Kennedy got in Morse's way on that popout.Adam Kennedy: If he's not killing you at the plate by hitting into double plays, he's making bonehead baserunning gaffes or Little League fielding mistakes.Can you please DFA this stiff? Like NOW.Hey, StanK: No more players with the initials AK. OK, please?
- Anonymous - Aug 19, 2010 at 12:38 AM
Congrats to Wil and Yomarie! Look forward to seeing Wilson Ramos play
- BQ - Aug 19, 2010 at 12:50 AM
@ Sunshine, to be honest, I did not watch the play. I am just following the gameday. We have 8 hits against Hudson but only 2 runs to show for it. Why?Livan is matching Hudson it seems. Also able to get 3 DP out of Braves in 6 innings. Phenomenal season he is having.
- CapPeterson - Aug 19, 2010 at 12:52 AM
Nice throw from Bernie. This is one of the reasons why IMO he needs to play every day in CF. His arm for RF is OK, but for CF above average. He could turn out to be an above-average all-around CFer. I guess Prado forgot–thought he was running on Nyjer's arm.
- Sunshine_Bobby_Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_for_Me - Aug 19, 2010 at 12:58 AM
@BQ: No offense meant by me. Yeah, Kennedy ran into mid-right field and got in Morse's way, leading to a drop.Reason we have eight hits and two runs is Nats have slapped into four DPs.Agree with you completely on Livan. He's pitching a gem, doing his best to stay even with Hudson, who is 10-and-1 lifetime against the Nats and is just a bear on this team.
- Brian - Aug 19, 2010 at 12:58 AM
Livan is matching Hudson it seems. Also able to get 3 DP out of Braves in 6 innings. Phenomenal season he is having. ************************************************We've given Hudson at least as many double plays to help his cause, though.
- dj in Fl. - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:01 AM
@Sunshine,We have the Braves broadcast crew in Fl. and their comments, espcially during the replay, were that Morse showed no hustle coming in for the ball. It should have been Morse calling off Adam.
- Brian - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:01 AM
Speaking of DPs, we could really use another one right here…
- Brian - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:03 AM
Another botched pop-up. Great. This game is one hit or sacrifice fly away from being over.
- Sunshine_Bobby_Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_For_Me - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:04 AM
@dj: they might be right. Morse didn't break on it well, but seemed to be closing and could have caught the ball. But kennedy faked him out, made like he was going to catch it and then moved off it.
- BQ - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:04 AM
Someone please tell me how Conrad hits a single on a popup to 2B. It makes no sense when I read it on gameday. What actually happened?
- Brian - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:07 AM
@BQ: The infielders were playing fairly shallow, and the outfield was in a "no-doubles" defense, and the ball was perfectly placed to drop in. No one could quite get to it.Nice job getting out of a jam, Livo!
- Andrew - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:07 AM
How did Livan get out of that 7th inning! WOW
- Sunshine_Bobby_Carpenter_Is_Too_Pessimistic_For_Me - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:08 AM
@BQ: It was a bloop hit to right-center that just fell in no man's land.
- Anonymous - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:10 AM
OMG, great waste of a PH by JMaxwell. Should have let Livan hit as he has a much better batting average!
- Brian - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:10 AM
JMax strikes out on three pitches? I never could have seen that coming…
- HabsProf - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:11 AM
What can I say? Livan battled over these last four innings, but in the end he turned in a great start: 7 innings and only 2 runs. Great job of not giving in to the hitters.Now if only our offense can pick up a run.
- Aussie Gus - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:13 AM
Why does Maxwell hit for Livo? Looking at their AVG, Livo is better at the plate!Thanks for the help Sunshine.
- BQ - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:13 AM
Well I am glad Livo was able to get out of it. Pretty awesome performance again. I wish Riggs had kept him in the game. Now our offense needs to get going.
- Brian - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:16 AM
Ugh. I go to the bathroom and come back to see Zimm getting tossed. What is up with these umps and their quick trigger?
- HabsProf - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:16 AM
What's with this umpiring crew? They sure love to eject Nats!
- greg - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:17 AM
nice plug for zimmerman.http://espn.go.com/blog/sweetspot/post/_/id/4866/picking-your-franchise-player
- JaneB - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:19 AM
Zim did nothing wrong. These umps are delusional. Not to mention his strike zone tonight is ridiculous.
- Jeeves - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:20 AM
I was disappointed when the Nats did not trade Dunn For Hudson. The kid is pitching great for Arizonia and Dunn will forever be a streaky hitter who will go days not helping the team with his offense and be a defensive liability. I'm at a loss why so many are so firmly entrenched in his ballpark. No pun intended.
- swang - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:20 AM
Ok, WTF happened? I glance away from gameday for 2 seconds, and look back to find Riggs and Zimm tossed? Over a foul tip SO?
- dj in Fl. - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:27 AM
Once again the Braves crew said the tossing of Zim was uncalled for and Riggs should have been giving the ump heck for it. They showed replays to prove Zim said nothing to the ump. They also said last nights tossing was unwarranted.
- rmoore446 - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:55 AM
It's the rookie ump behind the plate. I think Carpenter said it was the same ump who tossed Pudge last night.
- rmoore446 - Aug 19, 2010 at 2:18 AM
This one hurt.
- Anonymous - Aug 19, 2010 at 2:46 AM
@ManassasThe ump that tossed Pudge last night was at second base tonight.Carpenter was actually bad mouthing the crew chief for not controlling the crew, and watching them toss players without warrant.Zim tossed his bat and hat down angry at himself and Carnak decides he was ticked about the pitch before. Well that would imply to me the ump would know there would be a reason to be ticked about the pitch before if he is going to make that inference. I turned it over to the O;'s game as soon as I saw Clippard come in as I do not trust him in close games, 5 minutes I flip over and indeed he was as bad as I expected allowing the winning run to score.Burnett give us a dinky single so we replace him. That is what is wrong with the team, the manager (in this case bench coach) are to trigger happy to replace pitchers.
- Joe Seamhead - Aug 19, 2010 at 2:47 AM
Ugh! This one was especially painful to watch. I'm sick of the umpires making the games about them.
- Anonymous - Aug 19, 2010 at 2:54 AM
Cry baby Zimmy got thrown out of the game for throwing a tantrum….way to lead…I cannot wait for Harper to arrive and Zimmy and Little Stephen will have to look him in the eye and deal with the negative comments they made about him….way to lead fellas!
- Section 312 - Aug 19, 2010 at 2:58 AM
Section 312This is not a good baseball team, I am not sure I will go to another game this year–have been a season ticket holder since the beginning. Maybe they will win 65 games this year, is that an improvement. Very discouraging!
- meixler - Aug 19, 2010 at 3:09 AM
Anon 10:54What d**k you are. If you're gonna say something like that at least put your name behind it. Now, I generally am not a fan of trash talking on blogs – especially this one which has a nice community going. But I can't believe you're a true Nats fan if you're talking about Zimm and Strasburg that way. Also, I don't think either has said anything that negative about Harper. If I'm wrong, give me the quotes. And even though I shouldn't have to mention it, I will point out that Harper is still 2 or 3 years out from being in the majors and until he proves something in the bigs he's still just a prospect like everyone else.
- rmoore446 - Aug 19, 2010 at 3:20 AM
I agree with you meixler. But I have to say that anonymi's comment was so foolish it was funny in a surreal way. He's holding up as a maturing influence the teenager who managed to get ejected from his last college game ruining his team's chances at the championship. He did have the good grace (and this is said without irony) to cry about it afterward.He's a good kid at heart but he's a kid.
- Richard - Aug 19, 2010 at 3:23 AM
I think the umps are (1) missing too many calls. Last year's World Series and the missed perfect game this year are examples. And, (2) are getting out of control. We need some instant replay badly and someone to supervise the umps and fire a few for being too ready to throw players out. Like Bob Carpenter and others have said, the fans go to games to see the players not the umps. That said, as much as it pains me, tonight I think Zimm was out of line. He threw his bat and then his helmut right outside the batter's box. Throwing equipment, I believe, warrants an ejection per the umps' rule book.
- rmoore446 - Aug 19, 2010 at 3:37 AM
You make a good point, Richard. I think if Zimm had taken a few steps toward the dugout before slamming the bat and helmet to the ground, he wouldn't have been tossed. Still, a veteran umpire (other than the odious Joe West) would likely have let it pass in a 2-2 game.
- b - Aug 19, 2010 at 12:16 PM

- Tcostant - Aug 19, 2010 at 12:40 PM
To funny last night the guys on MASN saying no rookie is "allowed" to hit on 3-0 pitch and that is what happen to end the game.
- LoveDaNats - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:07 PM
Are you sure Anon 10:54 isn't a Phillies fan?
- natsfan1a - Aug 19, 2010 at 1:30 PM
The umps certainly seem to have a short fuse in this series. Funny that Mench was in the dugout. Remember the televised Chiefs game where he was ejected for flinging his bat? (btw, the Syracuse skipper gets Best Actor for his post-ejection rant; Riggleman's was just so-so. ;-))In other news, congrats to the Nieves family on their new addition, as announced by Ben Goessling over on the MASN site.

Allow for some extra chocolate cigarellos for approximation and possible breakages.

I've just made my daughters 21st cake with these and just wanted to say what a brilliant service as I chose to have them delivered on my day off work and they arrived first thing so I had all day to make the cake. Top tip for others using these; Lay them out before you start applying so you're sure you have enough and can pick out the very nicest looking ones! Thankfully I ordered more than I needed and the remaining I shall save for the odd fancy dessert and any flakey bits left over for topping my coffee. I shall be back!
Posted Sun 27 Feb 2011 7.53pm by Victoria
Fantastic! I ordered them with standard delivery and they came in two days and I haven't found a single broken one! They taste fantastic and make everything look proffesional and I definately reccommend them to all budding chefs and anyone that just wants something to make that dessert extra special!

I ordered a box of 84 these to decorate a birthday cake, and I am very impressed with both the quality of the product, and the service from Chocolate Trading Co. I ordered them for next day delivery; the cigarillos were dispatched within 2 hours of me placing the order, and would have arrived on time, has it not been for a delay at Royal Mails end, which meant they arrived a day late. No fault of Chocolate Trading Co. They were packaged very securely, with plenty of Styrofoam padding surrounding the box, and all but 2 of the cigarillos were in-tact when I opened the box.The product is of very high quality; they taste and look fantastic. I also had plenty left over, after decorating a 20cm cake.I would definitely recommend buying from Chocolate Trading Co., just be wary of Royal Mail's supposed next day guarantee.
Posted Sat 29 Oct 2011 11.43am by Hayley
These chocolate cigaerllos are just prefect, and the milk chocolate tastes wonderfull! They are going to be used for the decoration to my mothers birthday cake, and I think they will look very classic, clean and professional. I cannot wait to use them and will definately be using the Chocolate Trading Co. again in the near future! Very Happy, thanks!
Posted Sun 15 Jan 2012 8.41pm by Sue
I recently purchased 4 boxes of these delicious milk chocolate cigarellos for a three tiered wedding cake I was making for a friend. Not only are they a quality product but so is the packaging, not one single cigarello was broken! Very impressive. I must say everyone at the wedding was impressed with the look and the taste of both the cigerallos and the cake, I will definately be using the Chocolate Trading Co. again. Thank you.
Posted Sun 22 Sep 2013 2.12pm by Lisa
I ordered a box of each, white, milk and dark. They arrived in perfect condition and were amazing quality, in fact the best quality cigarillos I have ever brought. I will be back for more. Thank you chocolate trading co!
Posted Thu 15 May 2014 10.44am by Joanne
Chocolate cigarellos - a really easy way to spruce up an everyday sponge cake. Gorgeous milk chocolate straws and not a single one broken when they arrived, helped no doubt by the Chocolate Trading Companies attention to packaging. All the family commented on the way my cake was decorated and I'm sure a few of them will be ordering cigarellos themselves to try very soon.

Judicial activism occurs when judges write subjective policy preferences into the law rather than apply the law impartially according to its original meaning. As such, activism does not mean the mere act of striking down a law.
Judges expand on or invent erroneous precedents to give legal status to their preferred outcomes.
Judges strain the plain text to achieve their apparent desired ends, bending terms to the point of breaking.
Unable to justify their conclusion with U.S. law, judges turn to international law to justify their preferred outcome.
Judges mischaracterize the facts or emphasize selective facts to support a desired result.
Judges expand the power of the judiciary beyond its constitutional limits.
Judges rely on the so-called Living Constitution to make the Constitution comport with their self-described enlightened sensibilities.
Judges abolish the protection of established rights to which they are personally opposed.
Judges elevate personal sympathy for a litigant above the requirements of law.
Judges weigh policy considerations above the requirements of law.

From Pierre: Legislature moving fast on Common Core
The Legislative Session for 2014 is definitely in full swing. It will be a busy and hopefully productive year. Last week several bills were debated in the Senate on Common Core standards for education. The Common Core State Standards Initiative is an education initiative that details what K-12 students should know at the end of each grade. The Senate has heard many concerns regarding these standards and passed two bills thus far. One will limit the authority of the Board of Education to Adopt the Common Core Standards, the second will work to protect student privacy by prohibiting the collection of information not necessary for the calculation of funding for public education, the determination of student academic progress, state and federal reporting requirements, or other duties prescribed to a school district, the department, or the state board of education by law. The Senate will hear two bills concerning election laws. Senate Bill 34 would make it easier for members of the military who are stationed overseas to vote, and Senate Bill 35 would allow for a delay in an election for an emergency situation in which the weather conditions put into question the opening of a polling place. This would not apply to general election races.The House passed three bills from the department of labor and regulation to place further regulations on the insurance industry. All of the bills were consumer protection related.I am serving on the Health and Human Services and Commerce and Energy Committee's. Bills have been minimal these first two weeks, but I am sure that will change significantly in the weeks to come.It is certainly an honor to be serving, and I look forward to hearing any questions or concerns you may have.

Very good and easy to use. But, could you enable us to specify the lineType when calling draw functions? I have rewritten them myself and compiled, but I think others would like this too. In order to not break things, you can use default values for the parameters, like so: ///<summary> Draw a line segment using the specific color and thickness </summary> ///<param name="line"> The line segment to be drawn</param> ///<param name="color"> The color of the line segment </param> ///<param name="thickness"> The thickness of the line segment </param> ///<param name="lineType"> The linetype to use when drawing </param> public virtual void Draw(LineSegment2D line, TColor color, int thickness, CvEnum.LINE_TYPE lineType = CvEnum.LINE_TYPE.EIGHT_CONNECTED) { #if !NETFX_CORE Debug.Assert(thickness > 0, Properties.StringTable.ThicknessShouldBeGreaterThanZero); #endif if (thickness > 0) CvInvoke.cvLine( Ptr, line.P1, line.P2, color.MCvScalar, thickness, lineType, 0); }
very good project, thanks!
works perfectly.
Great product emgucv

He is best known for his work on time perception, synesthesia, and neurolaw. At night he writes. His work of fiction, SUM, is an international bestseller published in 28 languages. Why the Net Matters examines what the advent of the internet means on the timescale of civilizations Wednesday is Indigo Blue explores the neurological condition of synesthesia, in which the senses are blended. His most recent book, the New York Times bestseller Incognito: The Secret Lives of the Brain, explores the neuroscience "under the hood" of the conscious mind--in other words, all the aspects of neural function to which we have no awareness or access.
Eagleman is a Guggenheim Fellow, a winner of the McGovern Award for Excellence in Biomedical Communication, a Next Generation Texas Fellow, Vice-Chair on the World Economic Forum's Global Agenda Council on Neuroscience & Behaviour, a research fellow in the Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies, Chief Scientific Advisor for the Mind Science Foundation, and a board member of The Long Now Foundation. He is an academic editor for several scientific journals. He was named Science Educator of the Year by the Society for Neuroscience, and was featured as one of the year's Brightest Idea Guys by Italy's Style magazine. He is founder of the company BrainCheck, the scientific advisor for the television drama Perception, and has been profiled on the Colbert Report, NOVA Science Now, the New Yorker, CNN's Next List, and many other venues. He appears regularly on radio and television to discuss literature and science.
David is the author and presenter of a new 6 hour PBS series entitled The Brain, which will air internationally in October 2015.
David's iPad app "Why the Net Matters, or Six Ways to Avert the Collapse of Civilization" was recently called a "superbook" by the New York Times Magazine. For a taste of the argument, read David's article in WIRED or watch a video of his talk at the Long Now Foundation. Don't have an iPad? The manuscript is now available as an eBook.

This i'ble is in constant update. If you're planning on doing something don't be afraid to drop a question.
I've always wanted a POV for my bicycle, specially a full colour POV capable of displaying text, images and small animations!
There are some cool POVs commercially available.
- SpokePOV from adafruit industries (and its i'ble)
- Monkeylectric's m132s
- Monkeylectric's recentely announced m464q
Unfortunately, the SpokePOV is only one colour, and the m132s, as I understand, doesn't have the ability to display images. Besides, I think these are a little too expensive for something that I will not use often.
So I though I would try to make my own with components I already had around. This way I don't have to spend any more money to try and play with a bicycle POV.
This project features:
- 16 RGB (Red+Green+Blue) Light Emitting Diodes;
- Arduino compatibility (Suposedely, I'll have to check that later);
- Single layer printed circuit board, suitable for home fab;
- All through hole componentes, suitable for beginners;
- Hall effect sensor, for image synchronization;
- Least number of componentes possible;
- Unfortunately, only one side of the wheel is illuminated (check update).
- Fits 26" wheels, I haven't had opportunity to try it in 20" and 24" wheels.
Update: I updated the board, so you can use only one board for lighting both sides of the wheel! But it won't work correctly in both sides for text...

How do you compile the images with the files? I have built the board but having trouble uploading a firmware... Would you be able to upload a precomplied image?
The download link does not appear if the language is not set to 'en'. To get the links you have to open http://www.instructables.com/id/RGBike-POV-Open-project/?lang=en (notice the lang=en at the end) and then navigate to step one. Voila the links are there. Seems to be some bug in the instructables software...
if so feel free to contact me @ firstname.lastname@example.com I would greatly appreciate it
do you think you can design a device like this for a vehicle on 30 inch rims?? I will pay $$$$
Hey,my name is miaoyu.I
am a student.I am sorry to trouble you.But I
want to ask a question.I am doing an experiment to
study the luminance of each final pixel.My goal is get luminance of
pixels.I set the output file
openexr.I have got the value of standard solar irradiance in 700nm is
1.42666,then I use the conversion coefficient.That is,I converted irradiance to illumiance as my
lightsource input.
My whole code in pov is as below:
#version 3.7;
global_settings{ assumed_gamma 1.0 }
#include "spectral.inc"
#declare SpectralWavelength =700;
angle 7.54371
location <camera_x,camera_y,camera_z >
look_at <0,0,0>
rotate <0,-31,0>
right x
up y
light_source {<sun_x,sun_y,sun_z>
#declare geom_file_name = "pov-xyz.txt";
#declare spec_file_name = "pov-ref.txt";
finish {
ambient 0
emission 0
specular ref
I have read the openexr source ,it says y channel stand for luminance,how can I set in pov ?
Above ia all my code in pov,whether need I set additional output or statements to get my lumiance output.Beg your help.
Please tell me what program you use to compose and generate color image and animation file. Hex you register in microcontroller ATMega328p ? Plz help to me
Because here each color is sequentially driven, by controlling the power to each color sequentially in time, you are able to control the brightness independently.
If you power all colours at the same time, you will only be able to control the brightness of all colors (sum of the RGB, white).
Where have you seen it as a problem? What do you mean it doesn't support?
I just searched "common cathode TLC5940", and I've seen other examples that it uses common cathode leds.
Maybe TLC5940 has limited sink current abilities. I don't recall. Is that what they mention? But in this application it has been accounted for. Besides, each color is powered sequentially, one at a time.
"We carry and use CA more than CC because multi-LED driver chips (such as the TLC5940/TLC5941) are often designed exclusively for CA and can't be used with Common-Cathode."
I've seen it mentioned in a few other places too. Maybe it's a case of everyone parroting one source?
Estou tendo algums problemas com o codigo! o arquivo bike_pov.zip contem as libraries utilizadas no codigo,mas qual destes arquivo realmente tem o codigo utilizado na gravação? eu tente o arquivo .c mas ele apresenta erros!
''SENSOR_DDR' Was Not Declared in this scope''
Obrigado pela ajuda!
in order of keeping the image upright perhaps at any given speed. or to adjust image with speed.
Althought I have no idea how that would be accomplished :P
okay well an actual improvement might be....
having a contact on the wheel like a copper coated contact disk, so if its 3 wires 3 contact points near the axle (example would be just like slot cars) that way the led light could be the only thing attached to the spokes not big heavy battery packs... if that makes sense. I figure if you had the circuit board on the wheel an it lost contact for a half second it may reset the board or something so just the Led's should be alright.
Also, you are missing a vital point here.., you cannot simply extrapolate based on what you already know. For instance, at those speeds, it is possible that the inherent latency in the system would not allow for the display to refresh fast enough to display the image when you are going 60mph+ for example.
Also, you have no idea whether or not the hall effect sensor will be able to give you accurate reliable readings at those speeds.
I don't have Eagle.
Thanks again!
I truly like to make POV as you did.
I already have AVR ATM8535. But I still don't understand the concept of using sensor in POV circuit. On your project what is the function of hall sensor and to what uC pin do feed it. Please email to: email@example.com.
I am from Indonesia.
Please tell me what program you use to compose and generate color image file. Hex you register in microcontroller ATMega328p / ATMEGA168 microcontroller from RGBike POV project.
D. Sandu by firstname.lastname@example.com
I want to mount these to the rim of a car wheel
Would the much high RPM's of the car rim cause problems?
Im not sure if the processor and hall sensor would be able to function fast enough to properly control the LEDs when the car is doing 30 mph or faster.
Maybe some how dividing the input variable of the hall by half would give the microprocessor more breathing room?
i know little about the microprocessor, would it be capable of keeping up with a car travelling 50 - 70 mph?
any help would be highly appreciated

But we still require to use a beast like JACK to do "professional" audio under Linux...
And well, hardware mixer support is limited to a few cards (most of them Creative ones). And let's forget about advanced features of DSPs, like the E-MU ones or others.
MacOS X and even Windows still has an extremely high amount of advantages in the audio stuff.
I really hope the KLANG concept gets matured soon, this is one of the lots of lacks for making Linux a proper desktop system.
And Pulseaudio SUCKS.

In this week's Kerrang! magazine, Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong reveals that the punk heroes have already started work on the follow-up to last year's 21st Century Breakdown.Despite making fans wait five years in between 2004's American Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown, Armstrong promises that the as-yet-untitled follow-up will be completed sooner rather than later.
The vocalist says that the punk trio used their downtime wisely during their European tour last October, spending their time off between arena shows in recording studios across the continent rather than sleep

The Sami are Norway's indigenous people. They have lived at one with nature and developed their Sami culture since the first people came to the Arctic areas of Norway over 11,000 years ago. You can learn about their way of life in the Sami theme park in Finnmark.
Arctic Norway is the kingdom of light. In the summer, the sun never sets. It is a surreal feeling, walking around the spectacular countryside in sunlight at three in the morning. The mountains form a magical backdrop against a sky that lights up with spectacular colours.
And as the seasons change, the sun disappears permanently for the winter. The climate shifts between harmony and wildness, and the magical northern lights dance across the sky. There are many places and ways to expereince the Northern Lights, choose for example a Northern Light Cruise.
You feel alive when standing behind 12 eager Greenland dogs or sitting on a snow scooter packed with horsepower, ploughing through ice and snow. You can experience the exciting side of the Arctic fauna on a king crab safari, where you get to see and taste the enormous crabs.
Furthest north lies the North Cape. As you stand here gazing northwards, all that separates you from the North Pole is the archipelago of Svalbard. You get a tiny sense of having conquered something when you stand at the end of Europe and feel the wind from the North Pole in your face.

"Makes my commute worthwhile."
Excellent! I have sampled both newspapers and several other news services' downloads. This is by far the best. I thought the Wall Street Journal was only about finances, I was wrong. It is great news. Granted it is conservative in nature. If that offends you go to the liberal alternative that is offered. The reader is outstanding. His first person narrative gives one the impression of conversing with a well informed colleague who you have no desire to interrupt. In addition to the 5 issues a week of the Journal, you also get the Weekend edition which is a ?lifestyle? type supplement that discusses wines, movies, fashion, ? Definitely worth your time.
"A lot of artistic license"
This is a very entertaining series but it is not intended to be an audio Bible so a lot of additional dialog is added. Once you accept that, it is very well put together and a great tape to listen to while working or driving.
"A fun read but don't take it seriously"
I loved the book and the reader was excellent. His ability to change his voice as he moved from character to character enhanced the listening and kept my attention. As to the book, the codes were simplistic and the author's understanding of the content of Nag Hammadi books erronious, to say the least. If you don't take the author seriously and enjoy this as a work of fiction, you will have a good time.
"A too often forgotten time in History"
Too often we think the Crusades were battles between Christians and Moslems over the so called "Holy Land". That was only a part of it. It was motivated by religious, political and economic factors and enhanced with a promise of an eternity in paradise. While the book presents the European warriors as saviors, the similarities to Al Quida are there. This book concentrates not on the battles over Jerusalem but rather on the conquest of Christian Constantinople by the European Christians. It sanitizes the events and presents Europe as the hero, to which I disagree, but it is still an important book to read, as too few understand the Crusades, and an understanding of the Crusades is an integral part of today's conflict in the Middle East.
"Take in the Meat and spit out the bones."
Reading nonfiction is a lot like eating a fish you have to learn to swallow the meat and spit out the bones. This has some bones but as the saying goes history is very much his (or her) story. Read the suggested books which the author calls the books you are not supposed to read, but read others on Islam also. You will find this book is closer to the truth then many other books on the subject. This has renewed my reading of the Qur'an and histories of the era surrounding the crusades. Over all, I recommend it as an addition to anyone's library.
"Mediocre audio quality"
Should this be digitally enhanced it would get a five star rating. Unfortunately the downloads are limited to quality 1 or 2 and it shows. The reading is very good with some occasional background music which I find bothersome but not annoying as in other readings of the Bible that I own. One feature that is unique and should be in all audio Bibles is that there is a different download for each of the Books of the Bible. This is an excellent feature and is enough reason to buy it.
"Detailed and interesting"
It is hard to imagine how such a long listen can still be interesting but it is. I have all 3 volumes and I am amazed at how the level of detail coupled with the excellent reading has maintained my interest. One suggestion for the listener, the author presents the events of both sides of the conflict, so it would help to know who the major characters are and what side they are fighting for before listening.
"An entertaining listen."
If you are conservative and like to hear yourself talk this is the book for you. The author is a master of rhetoric. While I agree with her on every point discussed and admire her research, her extensive use of logical fallacies would be transparent to an educated liberal. If educated liberal was an oxymoron, this would be the book to quote. The reader is excellent and reads the book as if she was having a conversation with the listener. Even with it's flaws, I still highly recommend listening to it.
"Excellent perspective"
Great book and excellent reading. While the perspective is almost entirely that of the armies of the revolution and its characters the book still seems balanced. By showing the successes and failures in a style that places you back in time, I gained a new perspective of the war that established the United States. In my opinion this is a must read for anyone interested in the history of the United States.
"New spin on classic stories"
If you are a fan of the classic TV program you will recognize these stories but don't let that stop you from getting this collection. The minor revisions bring the stories up to date and the actors are effective in sparking the imagination. Even knowing the outcome, the stories still held my attention and entertained.
"Neither cold nor hot."
I have read both extremes politically and religiously, regarding this subject and this author's opinion is in the middle. There were several quotations from the founding fathers that would have swayed the reader toward another opinion but they were not included, perhaps due to space limitations, perhaps intentionally. I believe one needs to read a variety of points of view to form their own. Therefore this books serves a purpose, but I would not use it alone to form an opinion. Read other books on the subject and primary sources, but include this book also.
