Pantex and Y-12 employees have been taking advantage of free flu vaccine shots offered at each site in preparation for the upcoming winter months. The practice, which has been an ongoing service for decades at each site, is also good for the community because fewer residents are susceptible to the bug, which means they aren't spreading it to coworkers, friends or family members.

Los Alamos and Sandia national laboratories this week hosted two U.S. senators as part of a Congressional delegation visit. Senators Deb Fischer, R-Neb., and Angus King, I-Maine, toured and learned about the work done at the two labs that help achieve NNSA's nuclear security mission.
As part of the visit to Sandia, the Congressional delegation received a tour of Sandia's MESA facilities. From left to right: Geoffrey Beausoleil, Manager, Sandia Field Office; Dr. Jerry McDowell, Sandia Deputy Labs Director & Executive Vice President for National Security Programs; Gen. Frank Klotz, DOE Undersecretary for Nuclear Security and NNSA Administrator; Sen. Deb Fischer, R-Neb.; Dr. Paul Hommert, Sandia President and Laboratories Director; and Sen. Angus King, I-Maine.

As we focus on our day-to-day work, it's sometimes easy to miss the many accomplishments that contribute to NNSA's important and enduring mission. Here are a few news items from around our organization that demonstrate mission success, as well as our commitment to effective management and efficient operations:
We recently achieved several milestones within the Stockpile Stewardship Program that ensures our Nation's nuclear warheads are safe, secure, and effective. This week, we reached the halfway point for production of the W76-1 warhead. This is a remarkable achievement for Defense Programs and our lab and production plant teams who have guided this Life Extension Program from being a design to a certified product for delivery to our Navy partners.
We have also completed tests for other weapons systems that have all been resounding successes. These include joint flight tests for the W78 and W80-1 systems; a flight test measuring performance of the W88 ALT 370 new radar system; and for the B61-12, a successful wind tunnel test and fit checks on various aircraft including the F-15, the F-16, and soon the B-2.
Additionally, we have been working at an impressive pace to use our unique facilities to their fullest potential in support of stockpile stewardship without nuclear testing. Our efforts continue to deliver high quality data for the advanced assessment and certification of the Nation's stockpile. The National Ignition Facility at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory has completed nine target shots per week for the past two weeks, all yielding valuable data to provide insights into how our weapons work. The Z Machine at Sandia National Laboratories and JASPER at the Nevada National Security Site (NNSS), have both executed numerous experiments for the validation of advanced computational models.
We also continue to advance our critical nuclear nonproliferation mission. Last week, Secretary Moniz led the U.S. delegation to the General Conference of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the annual policymaking meeting of all 162 IAEA Member States. The General Conference passed resolutions establishing policies on nuclear security, strengthening the effectiveness and improving the efficiency of safeguards, and nuclear safety. The language in these resolutions affirmed the close alignment of NNSA's nuclear nonproliferation mission with issues of central importance to the international community.
These accomplishments represent only a small sample of the awesome work being done within our organization. It may seem routine to many; however, it is worthy of kudos and recognition.

"Mission First, People Always"
DOE Undersecretary for Nuclear Security and NNSA Administrator Frank Klotz recently presented the Gold Medal of Excellence for Distinguished Service to Doug Dearolph, manager of the Savannah River Field Office. The medal is the highest honorary award granted by NNSA and was presented to Dearolph in recognition his dedication and commitment to public service and the mission of NNSA.
The award reads: "Your leadership, communication and organizational skills ensured stability and continuity of operations during a time of organizational transformation in the Office of Defense Nuclear Security, NA-70. Your unwavering service for more than six months at Headquarters as the Acting Deputy Associate Administrator, NA-70 and then as Acting Associate, NA-70/Chief, Defense Nuclear Security has not only significantly benefited the Office but the entire NNSA. Through your personal sacrifice, support and leadership of the Defense Nuclear program, you have contributed immeasurably to the overall security of the NNSA and the United States of America."
Y‑12ers donated more than $2,000 and numerous school supplies to ensure students in need have everything required to start the school year. Working with Aid to Distressed Families of Appalachian Counties (ADFAC), employees donated money along with 144 notebooks, 132 boxes of crayons, 111 packs of pencils, 80 reams of paper and 66 packs of glue sticks.
"Employees once again shared their giving spirit with those in our communities," Y‑12 United Way Chair Yvonne Bishop said. While the event precedes the site's formal United Way campaign kickoff, Bishop said site employees always are ready to respond. ADFAC volunteers use the donations to provide backpacks and school supplies to fulfill more than 7,000 requests for assistance.
"What struck me the most was the passion the volunteers had for their mission. Even with the number of children they serve, each one of the backpacks was customized," CNS Vice President and Y‑12 Site Manager Bill Tindal said. "They took into account the teacher supply list, the gender, the age of the child, and the school system and filled the backpack with specifically what that child needed."
ADFAC, which began in the 1980s, works to meet the unfilled needs of community members. To find out more about ADFAC, visit their website (www.adfac.org) or call 865-483-6028.

More than 100 individuals from several National Security Campus teams received recognition this week for their work supporting NNSA's Defense Programs.
Mike Roberts, KCFO Manager of Stockpile Management, presented the awards in a special ceremony on September 22 to the six teams, including the B61-12 Spin Rolamite Harvesting and Reuse Team; B83 Alt353 Production Team; Common Tester Architecture Design Team; DLC Coating Development Team; Forgings Development Team; and Preflight Case Assembly Team. The seventh award went to NSC engineer Wesley Mossinghoff for his design of a new Zero Insertion Force connector for inertial switches.
The awards recognize on an annual basis the contributions of work performed in support of the Stockpile Stewardship Program. The awards are given for significant achievements in quality, productivity, cost savings, safety or creativity in support of the nuclear weapons program.
OneVoice, the employee/community newsletter for the Nevada National Security Site (NNSS), was recognized recently with two awards in the 2014 Better Newspapers Contest, sponsored by the Nevada Press Association.
OneVoice Co-editor Lory Jones received a first-place award in the category of Community Journalism for weekly or monthly newspapers with circulations of 10,000 or less for her December 2013 story on the volunteer efforts of NNSS employees during the holidays. OneVoice Layout Design Editor David Wieand received a second-place award, also in the Community Journalism category, for his September 2013 design of a special "back-to-school" section of the newspaper.
Both Jones and Wieand are employed by National Security Technology, the managing and operating contractor for the NNSS. They competed against staff members from dozens of weekly and monthly newspapers from across Nevada. The contest attracted hundreds of entries which were independently judged by a panel of newspaper editors from South Dakota.
The Y‑12 National Security Complex recently completed another improvement in its site infrastructure with the demolition of Building 9744, a former utilities and maintenance facility occupying more than 9,000 square feet.
Despite structural issues and waste disposal concerns, the facility was safely demolished nearly two months ahead of schedule.
The demolition proved challenging due to the deteriorating facility conditions, precluding the standard approach of entering the facility to minimize hazards and remove hazardous waste prior to the demolition.

As students return to school this fall, many will have great stories to tell about their summer internship and experience. For seven students who attended the National Nuclear Security Administration's (NNSA) annual Minority Serving Institution Program (MSI), that is particularly true.
During the summer, these seven students with varying backgrounds in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics who attend different minority serving institutions got to spend 10 weeks working across various parts of NNSA labs, field offices and program offices. The students gained practical experiences, directly correlated to their education, inspiring many with the ambition to join the federal workforce in the future.
For Connor Natzke, an undergraduate student at Colorado School of Mines pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Engineering Physics, the MSI program exposed him to the unique and innovative work conducted at the NNSA. Furthermore, he was able to continue a long-standing family tradition, given that both of his grandfathers had previously worked for defense contractors.
Image Background Caption: Connor by the Z Machine | Air-gas breakdown when Z Machine at Sandia National Laboratories fires.
Connor's perspective:
When I began my summer internship at the NNSA, I had no idea what the organization accomplished, or the role of the federal government in managing our national labs. The college I attend did not have a substantial NNSA presence during its annual on-campus job fairs, instead being overshadowed by the plethora of petroleum, mechanical, and chemical engineering companies. As a result, my time spent at the NNSA opened my mind to the state-of-the-art work being done, the hard-working employees that compose the agency and their commitment to fulfilling NNSA's mission.
Given that both of my grandfathers worked for defense contractors during the height of the Cold War, my family instilled in me a certain sense of patriotism. We have always supported the defense industry in the United States, and I have longed to be a part of it since I began my studies in engineering. To that end, the summer opportunity at NNSA gave me the chance to experience the mission first hand. I've also gained tangible insight into the steps I would need to take in my pursuit for a career in nuclear field. During my internship, my coworkers were extremely helpful in teaching me how the federal government functions, and also showed me just how tight knit the working relationships at NNSA is. Every person I encountered showed a deep rooted passion for their job, and pride in the work that they do on behalf of the United States. I am extremely grateful to have been a part of the organization and now look forward to working in the nuclear industry upon completion of my degree.
Maurice's perspective:
As a graduate student at Florida A&M University pursuing a Masters in Industrial/Manufacturing Engineering, the MSI program gave me the opportunity to utilize my academic experience in Quality Control and ISO 9000.
I was placed in the Office of Audit Coordination and Internal Affairs. Upon starting the internship, I was initially unsure of what to expect from a federal government agency with nuclear responsibilities. Then, to throw in the acronym usage which I now know is common within the federal environment, I was met with a steep learning curve. Nevertheless, I overcame that obstacle with the assistance of my co-workers, who ensured I was equipped with the necessary learnings to get up to speed.
Through the internship, I learned how various multifaceted parts of the department – labs and program offices contribute to the overall nuclear mission at NNSA. This experience afforded me the opportunity to work on exciting projects while also partaking in learning modules and other online training programs that facilitated the transition into the federal work system. Having experienced the MSI program firsthand, I highly recommend it to future students. It is likely the best opportunity possible to truly experience and understand the federal government, and gain practical work experience.
During our time in the program, students got the opportunity to interact with NNSA senior level management in various departments, including the Department of Energy's Under Secretary for nuclear security and NNSA Administrator Frank Klotz, and the Associate Administrator for External Affairs, Clarence Bishop.
Frank Lowery, Deputy Associate Administrator for Management and Budget also worked with and mentored the students. His involvement motivated us to pursue federal careers as we select our prospective employers in the future.
About the MSI Program
The MSI Internship Program offers undergraduate or graduate student attending a participating Minority Serving Institution the opportunity to explore future careers, through practical work experiences directly related to their academic background at world-class scientific facilities or Federal offices across the country. Prospective students are afforded a real opportunity to combine their studies with on-the-job training and experience as it directly relates to their academic program, so that they can make more informed career choices in the future. For 10 weeks during the summer break, they are given the opportunity to work on exciting projects in research environments with some of the nation's top scientists and engineers at NNSA's laboratories, Federal field offices or with small business partners.

TVs Buying Guide
A trip to your local home entertainment store to buy a new Television is a task that can easily become so confusing for so many people that they leave the store without making a purchase. We're past the days of just buying the size of CRT TV that best fits our needs or our budget. With so many different types of TV technologies on the market these days, one really has to know what they want in a TV before even approaching the shopping stage. The main issues that have to be tackled are the size of the TV you want and how much you're willing to spend.
A quick background on the technologies...
LCD – LCD is short for 'liquid crystal display' which is a type of display that uses an array of crystals in front of a backlight source. When voltage is applied to these crystals they twist to allow varying amounts of light to pass through colour filters, this is a process that happens at every pixel to essentially display the entire image on the screen or TV.
Plasma – A plasma TV is made up of millions of cells containing the inert gases required to illuminate the display when they are charged. Each pixel of a plasma television is divided into three "sub-pixels", one for red, one for green and one for blue. When the gas in these sub-pixels has a charge applied to it, it turns into a luminous plasma. Through this happening in every single pixel of your TV, the right colours will be lit up to create an image.
DLP – DLP is certainly the more technologically complex of the three major television styles. A DLP chip containing over a million small mirrors (one for each pixel) is a chip that is small enough to be held in the palm of your hand. By tilting a mirror towards a light source or away from it, the corresponding pixel's 'on' or 'off' state can be controlled. Since each mirror can be turned on and off thousands of times per second, the chip has the capabilities to keep up to creating action-intense scenes without a problem. The replaceable lamp bulb that lights up these mirrors is first filtered through a colour wheel before reflecting off the DLP chip mirrors. This colour wheel is what creates the red, green and blue colours required to create a full-colour image.
Interlace vs Progressive Scan – To put things simple and straightforward on this subject; interlacing allows the image quality to be improved while not consuming any more bandwidth. This is done by the television drawing the odd lines of the image and then the even lines. This is also the common method used by television broadcast stations (both standard definition and a lot of high-definition broadcasts as well). Progressive scan (example 1080p) content is able to achieve much higher quality and frame rates but also consumes more bandwidth which is why most TV stations are not broadcasting this style of content yet. Progressive scan draws the image progressively, one line after another in order.
With LCD being such a widely available display technology, you won't have a hard time finding many different styles and brand names. Although not being available in larger sizes used to limit the LCD technology, this is no longer true. The range is from about 7 inches to 65+ inches in size. The smaller and more common sizes are also very budget friendly because they are mass produced on such a large scale for everything from TVs to computer displays. When you get into the larger LCD sizes, usually 50+ inches, then the price starts to get a little more costly than some of their plasma and DLP counterparts. Since the main source of an LCD's image is produced by the flat panel and the accompanying backlight, these are not very deep TV's and are popular for wall-mounting and also outperform all other TV styles when displaying static images. The good news is that with LCD panels being such widely produced in such a large variety of sizes now, prices are continually dropping on this technology. Being very budget-friendly is what makes LCD such a popular choice amongst typical home users who aren't looking to spend a lot of cash to build a big home theater system. Due to the design of an LCD panel there is no need to worry about any sort of "burn-in" time where you need to be careful with the display settings. We'll touch more on this subject in a bit. We are also past the days of slow LCD panels where ghosting would be an issue and that is another area you simply do not need to worry about when shopping for an LCD TV.
Visually, LCD buyers often enjoy the ability to choose between models with the typical non-reflective front panel and those with thin glass overlays on the front. This is quite different front plasma TVs where the gases used to create the plasma are sandwiched between two [reflective] glass panels. Depending on the style of room a plasma TV is being put into, this highly reflective front may not always work to the buyers liking.
Although there are some cons to the LCD TV category, I personally don't find these big enough to sway me away from buying one. First off is the problem of viewing angle, which is continually being improved upon as LCD technology advances. The viewing angle of an LCD display is somewhat less than their plasma and DLP counterparts. Plasma's have a viewing angle of up to 180 degrees where as LCDs tend to fall short of that at around 175 degrees (give or take a few degrees on each comparison). Since LCD displays were originally designed for a single-user experience, such as a computer monitor, they have a "sweet spot" viewing angle where all the colours and intensities are better balanced. Plasmas do not suffer from this "sweet spot" and can be viewed equally from any angle. Another bound-to-happen issue on most LCD TVs is backlight leakage. Since the backlight on these displays is what makes the LCD panel bright enough for the picture to be visible, it must always be turned on. When an LCD panel shows black it is simply blacking out the pixels that must be black but there is still a backlight turned on behind these pixels. This often causes the blacks to not be a rich and deep black, but to be slightly lighter. Depending on the quality of the TV and your viewing angle, the blacks in your picture may sometimes be very noticeably lighter, often with a slight white hue to them from this bleeding of the backlight. Keep in mind that's often only common on cheaper TVs, and if you try out a few before buying and invest your money wisely you won't run into a problem this severe.
Another option you'll have in your search for a new Television is a plasma TV. Plasma televisions don't come in sizes nearly as small as their LCD counterparts, but they are just as thin as a lot of LCD TVs so they can be easily mounted on a wall as well. When it comes to buying a larger sized TV, plasma is often one of the two cheaper routes to go; with DLP being another option we'll discuss soon. Although plasma doesn't always share the same resolutions as similar sized and priced LCD panels do, most plasma TVs are capable of 1080p.
Since illumination is created by a chemical reaction at each pixel and does not rely on a backlight that is always turned on like the LCD technology, a plasma TV will have much better blacks than an LCD can achieve. This will be especially noticeable with off-axis viewing, a case where LCD's will commonly lose black intensity. When it comes to contrast ratio, black levels, and depth perception it is said that plasma has a great advantage over LCD's in normal to low room lighting conditions. When you're in a really bright room or have nearby windows then make sure you watch out for reflections off the glass front!
As plasma TV's commonly only come in 42"+ sizes, you can't expect to go out and buy a "cheap" or "small" plasma. Once you do buy that new plasma, keep in mind that a lot of people don't realize that there is a "burn-in" time. For the first 100 operational hours of the TV you should run it at a reduced contrast level because it is possible to get a permanent image "burned" into the screen. During this time you will want to make sure that all the content you watch is in full widescreen mode. Any black bars at the sides of the screen from watching 4:3 ratio video will further contribute to this burn-in. After that initial 100 hours the TV will be much less sensitive to burn-in, although not completely clear of it. For minor burn-in, there are applications out there that can be executed from a computer to try and fix it.
The last of the three major options you'll have to choose between is a DLP TV. The projection method used on these TV's will make them quite a bit deeper than a plasma or LCD set of the same screen size. That cuts out the option to wall-mount these guys; they must be set on a stand in order to elevate them to optimal viewing level. Having an excellent size to price ratio, these are another very popular style of TV for those wanting to go big. A DLP television will often cost less than it's identical sized plasma counterpart. As with plasma, you will only find DLP TV's on the larger size (commonly 42"+). Also similar to plasma is the absence of a backlight behind the panel of a DLP television. This will also give it far better blacks than an LCD screen would have. Being in such an affordable price range means that you will have lots of options to choose from when buying a DLP TV, so count that as another plus. Being a continually evolving format, DLP manufacturers are starting to improve upon some issues this technology faced when it was newer. The "rainbow effect" is something you may experience on a DLP TV with a bulb backlight. Since only one colour on the internal colour wheel is shown at a time, if you pan your eyes across the image or look away and then look back quickly, some people say they can actually see the colour separation. Newer DLP designs are improving upon this by using LED backlighting with RGB LED's to essentially replace the traditional bulb and colour wheel all together. This not only cuts down on that expensive bulb cost, but also rules out the fact that the colour wheel may be subject to future failure because it is a mechanical device (and as we know, few mechanical devices will last forever). Unlike older DLP's that would achieve 1080p through a method called 'Wobulation', newer chip designs are also enhancing upon this by allowing the TV to natively produce 1080p content without some mirrors doing "double duty".
Lastly, you will want to look into the connectivity options of the television you choose. Most new TVs are now using HDMI to handle the majority of their interfacing with other components. HDMI is an entirely digital audio and video signal carried by one simple cable. Being a digital signal, it is able to carry high definition images up to 1080p for the best viewing experience in your new home theater. However, do you want PC connectivity too? Some users want the ability to tightly integrate their computer into their home theater system. If this is the case, look into the style of connection the TV uses for computer interfacing and make sure your computer has that connection as well (commonly analog VGA or digital DVI). For legacy components, you will want to make sure the TV supports the basic RCA video and audio inputs because a lot of components like digital cameras are still using these connection styles. S-video? Component input? Flash card input? Your requirements for all these will depend on what you plan on connecting to your home theater both now and in the near future.
To Conclude
Home television buying can be an incredibly daunting task. To keep things simple in this basic buying guide here, I tried my best to outline all the major things you will need to know in each area. However, at the same time I was only able to scratch the surface of each without writing a complete novel for you. Using your newfound knowledge, hopefully you will be able to find a television that will best suite you and your intentions for it. I highly encourage that once you've found a style you think will work best for you that you research it even further and try out a few store demo models of that kind of TV before making the investment yourself.

Blue Cheese Coleslaw
With us being well into spring now, I have started thinking more about summer fare including picnics and barbecues. A staple of both is your basic coleslaw that can be used either as a side or as a condiment in sandwiches. One of the great things about coleslaw is that the recipe is so easy to change and it just invites you to play around with it. I recently came across the concept of a blue cheese coleslaw and being the blue cheese fanatic that I am, I could not resist whipping up a batch. This cole slaw follows a pretty simple coleslaw recipe save for the addition of the crumbled blue cheese but one other nice addition is the grainy mustard which I have been really enjoying lately. The key to this blue cheese coleslaw is allowing it to have time to mellow so feel free to make it in the morning or even the day before. After letting the flavours mingle in the fridge for a while this coleslaw is truly amazing! It is just packed with flavour and the blue cheese gives it a really nice creaminess that will have you coming back for more. You can easily doubled this recipe and feel free to use a bag of pre-chopped cabbage to save a bit of time.

Sydney Bike LanesRe: Sydney Bike LanesIt appears that the bike lights on King St have changed. I've only been commuting back into the City for the last 3 weeks and it seems that I can get a run all the way to the top of the bike lane getting greens all the way. It does require a bit of effort but is definitely different to how it was in the early days.
Re: Sydney Bike Lanes
How do you do that? I still get stopped at Sussex, Kent and Clarence. Do I need to pedal faster or do those lights just hate me? Amateur oenologist and green-friendly commuter.
Re: Sydney Bike LanesIf thats the case i'll start using that & king st!
Will give it a go this week
Re: Sydney Bike LanesFaster it is I'm afraid! Big chain ring, out of the saddle, HTFU and go.
Re: Sydney Bike Lanes
sorry, negligent cycling - pedestrians around. did kent this morning, not too bad, a few places it was average & i had to wait for lights, i think you have to cycle at a casual dawdle pace - which is pretty nice & bearable, & the lights will link up a bit better. it drops me 1/2 way up king & the lights definitely werent phased there. In traffic from the bridge to George/King - its probably quicker, due to the large number of buses along york st stopped, but if its before 8:30ish probably quicker on the road down york
Re: Sydney Bike LanesI had a good run up the hill again this morning with the Clarence St light just going orange as I went through.
Re: Sydney Bike Lanes
I got stopped twice last night, for entire cycle. I climbed at the same speed as the cars, but the lights ahead never changed. Probably 3 minutes wait each time. Lights went green for non existent kent st bicycles before it gave me my greens. I got 39 red lights and 1 green light on the entire system (ignoring the ped crossing on kent which is usually green). Only reason I think that people get good runs, is because they are riding behind red light runners - you can be 2 minutes behind them and pick up a couple of their triggers. They aren't riding flat out either, they just go after a minute of waiting aimlessly, so the light sits in a state where it will give out a green in a couple of minutes after they go.
Re: Sydney Bike LanesI'm finding Kent Street traffic lights not so bad during peak periods - ie 8-9am and 5-7pm. Only because there is enough cyclists on the path to have regular triggers of the lights. I can usually get at least 2 rolling greens.
Of peak it's a nightmare... nearly always have to stop at every light.

Re: Sydney Bike Lanes
That whole article was written tongue-in-cheek. Need to stop assuming everyone is out to get us. "This is why most Sydneysiders spend winter shivering around dust-covered heaters dragged from hall cupboards and garages. No central heating for us. We sit in houses with wooden floorboards and large windows and wonder why the nights are freezing. We sweat under thick doonas and turn our skin red in too-hot morning showers while shuddering at the thought of obscuring bright morning light with anything such as heavy curtains." "They were more than a decade ago but Sydneysiders will never stop talking about the greatest Olympic Games ever. ... We'll also deny any suggestion that we were cynical, disinterested and disparaging about the event before it forever changed the city and its residents."
Re: Sydney Bike Lanes
It's hard to get out of the habit because 99% of the time they are Not particularly well written IMHO anyway... Salsa Casseroll, Avanti Quantum, Specialized Tricross, Cell SS
Re: Sydney Bike LanesOne of my pet hates is how people have this idea that roads and city layouts are static, set in stone and never changing - statements like "Sydney roads aren't designed for bikes".
This is about as far from the truth as they get. If you study the history of Sydney's street layout and block division (or any city's) you can see it's something that is really quite malleable and dynamic. These kind of statements also ignore the fact that in the 50's many many more people cycled on the road because there were far fewer cars on the road and more people walked or caught public transport. People also use the same statement except they swap bikes for trams - ignorant of the fact that Sydney used to have the largest tram network in the southern hemisphere, bigger than melbournes - in fact many of the old tram tracks are still underneath our roads and some have been accidentally uncovered during road works.

Re: Sydney Bike LanesJust saw that clip comurider, did you notice people walking across it without looking, and that numpty ped strutting down the middle of the two cycle lanes? lol
Bottom line they are adding value to the city, and I hope tons of riders get onto them. I use them where possible on my commute but I am starting to grind at taking 15 to 20 mins to get from the corner of Hunter and Phillip to the Anzac Bridge in peak hour. It makes me wonder how and why people try this in cars.... They really need to free up the roads but it will take a huge attitude adjustment across the board. People should not be waiting in buses for private cars. This is totally inefficient. Damn way OT. Thankyou Clover Moore - Keep driving these cool changes!
Re: Sydney Bike LanesLol yeah i did saw the ped though they could have picked a better spot to interview Clover with that unfinished bit in the background. I will have to find a way to do a test run of it as it looks so inviting. Maybe a lunchtime ride to it.

Less traffic, much less chance of getting doored and less traffic lights so it ends up being faster, particularly heading south where it's downhill. I quite like how they have made a tactile change to pavers at all the intersections and levelled it so the footpath blends in with the road - this naturally makes cars slow down when they approach the intersection.
There still could be some improvements but a job well done!

Re: Sydney Bike LanesFinally managed to do Bourke St. For such a small piece of infrastructure in the city to cause such a fuss I wonder what the anti cyclists brigade get their rocks off really. It's a small bit and noticeably the street is becoming 'gentrified'....very noticeable when going thru the intersections at Cleveland and Oxford.
Managed to do lunch at Woolloomooloo Bay hotel instead of Deus ex Machina where it seems to be really cliquey, while Pain Quotidien just lacks basic customer service. Lots of the emo and hipster crowd with chips on their shoulders and lack of helmets on their heads, a very naughty truck in the middle of the cycleway at one stage, and some silly peds wandering. Overall I am sure it makes a positive contribution to the area given the general vagrants, alcoholics and drug addicts/dealers that the area attracts even during the daytime. It was nice to see some really nice terraces but the barred windows is a reminder of its liveliness. If you are over 25, you are over the hill in the area's demographic. So from my pov, what really is the fuss all about? The cars ain't going faster than the cyclists so surely this will give the users a way out of the congestion so prevalent in the area. So go Clover!

Re: Sydney Bike Lanes
Write letters, folks. Tell them these separated bike lanes not only need preserving, but expanding. Dispute the view that it's increasing congestion, and put the view that traffic flow is actually improved. Certainly that's my strong impression of what's going on in Kent St. Main addressee Fatty O'Barrell and cc The Gay Reverend. You'll get a pro-forma response but it will go into their analysis of issues. Every email or letter counts. Which reminds me, I need to get back to the mayor in my Council area, who responded to an email regarding bike lanes and invited me to make input into a solution they are considering. Not blowing my trumpet here... I have no special telent. Just saying that raising the issues, backing them with facts and being courteous gets you noticed. Anybody can do it.
Re: Sydney Bike LanesHaving used mainly Bourke st Cycleway its frustrating pulling up at the lights and the cyclist in front is past the line and not on the sensors at the lights.
Does any one else have this issue as I know its frustrating as the lights take forever to change and if you miss the set cos of some fool trying to jump the lights its annoying.

You can calculate how many wall planters you need to fill a space by dividing the width of your wall area by 18 inches and height by 13 inches. For example, 4 planters cover a 36" wide and 26" high wall area. Also, you can use the cardboard box as a template to draft planter designs. Kit includes full instructions on how to install wall planters.
Tip: To create beautiful living walls, we suggest using a combination of three types of plants: 1) Spillers (plants that hang) 2) Fillers (plants that cover) 3) Thrillers (exciting plants)

I just noticed catalyst 11.12 for Windows floating through the net. So i looked up the Linux driver and it's there:
Haven't tried it yet, later this evening.
I just noticed catalyst 11.12 for Windows floating through the net. So i looked up the Linux driver and it's there:
Haven't tried it yet, later this evening.
For me and my oldie hd4850 it does work exactly the same as 11.11...
- GNOME3 support still sux,
- using xv video output causes X to crash,
and where is (mentioned here on phoronix) GL_ARB_robustness extension?
So dissapointed...
oh yeah!! been sitting waiting for this one all day. il give it a whirl and report back later.
Same shit for me on Fedora 16/64 on my notebook with ATI HD56750. With Gnome 3 I get same "artifacts" on screen.
It's unbelievable, i they are unable to make an affordable driverpack for linux. (I don't remember, when Gnome 3 published... maybe more than 6 months ago ?)
Uninstalling now...
im using a 4890. pretty boring sofar.
installation per instructions - worked withotu incedent.
firefox( 10a2 ) opengl accelerated layers still broken. not sure its an ati issue honestly - but it would be nice if it worked.
chromium works with all acceleration enabled. ie fishtank with 1000 fish at 55fps.
desktop seems a little snappier. no problems with unity.
vlc video playback fine. im using the latest xvba driver and vaapi and my cpu usage playing back video is tiny. almost nothing - 24% playign back 720p files.
youtube flash 720p fullscreen is fine. bit cpu hungry. maybe 40%. im using the labs 188.8.131.52 x64 plugin for firefox. perfect functionality. very pleased.
im on ubuntu 11.10 x64.
youtube flash 1080p is 34% cpu.
edit2 - tiny concern
was expecting opengl 4.xxxx
OpenGL version string: 3.3.11318

You can work around the video playback issue by downgrading Xorg to the packages from fc15. Specifically, the xorg-x11-drv* and xorg-x11-server* packages. Use 'yum downgrade' to do that.
I think we'll have to wait until RHEL ships gnome-shell to see an improvement on that front. That's gotta be what - 2 or 3 years from now?
That driver just added a few more pci ids and no noticeable fixes. Even for win you can skip that driver completely as gamers are already told to use the new 12.1 preview. Just where is the 12.1 preview for Linux...?
I would really welcome such minor releases, in particular for major bugs which shouldn't take 3+ month to be fixed.
Otherwise, they could keep the current stable cycle and *additionally* release unsupported beta drivers.
I don't see what's behind this fully closed beta thing. At least a selection of beta drivers could be distributed officially.

This girl L33F3R is fucking, switched to linux (ubuntu) last year because she got fed up with windows. She aint the brightest cookie in the jar tbh. She loves it. The only thing shes disappointed in is not being able to properly play java games on Facebook. Problem is that shes using the supplied proprietary drivers and not the free ones for her older ATI card. She doesnt know how to change it and shes not worth my time.
But hey, if this cokehead can discover linux all on her own, i extremely doubt there is much of a problem with acknowledgment of the existence of linux.
I do notice several misconceptions about linux. A buddy of mine, former web designer, tried to tell me what linux was. Apparently linux is an operating system, just like windows, and can get all the same viruses. its not any more secure and its slower, According to him (he had no idea iv been using it half my life).
So i think education is at large, missing.
Food for thought.

Mayor says she, police chief don't see eye to eye
Thomas Pappas, chairman of the Nashua Police Commission, disagreed, saying Chief John Seusing routinely contacts Lozeau on important events. But Lozeau said she found out about the Attorney General's Office ongoing review of a complaint against Seusing from newspaper accounts. The complaint alleges Seusing had credibility issues that could have affected his testimony against Michael Monroe, who was convicted of murder two decades ago.
On June 17, William and Eleanor Grant were found stabbed to death at their home, 37 Newbury St. On Wednesday, Shawn P. Burne, 37, was found dead at his home, 41 Newbury St. Police said Burne's death was not a homicide and is not considered suspicious.
It is unfortunate, Lozeau said, but there is definitely a rift between her office and Seusing, although she made it clear she is proud of the Nashua Police Department.
Lozeau, the daughter of a police officer, sees herself as pro-law enforcement. Her 14 years in the state Legislature working on criminal justice issues plus her five years as mayor should have proved that, she said.
Because the Nashua Police Commission, which has oversight over police officers, is one of the last - if not the last - appointed by the Governor and Executive Council, Lozeau and the aldermen only have power over the police department's civilians and budget.
But she worries police officials think she wants change for the sake of change.
"What I want is positive change and local accountability," Lozeau said. "If someone calls my office with kudos or criticism of the department, it would be nice to know the police commission, the chief and I could talk."
The past week with Deputy Chief Scott Howe on paid leave has shown that Nashua needs only one deputy police chief, not two, she said.
Gov. Maggies Hassan and Seusing did not respond to requests for comment.
As to any tension, Pappas said: "Any time there is a lot going on, there's going to be some difference of opinion... Everyone is entitled to their own opinion."
"We don't oversee it. There were some questions raised about the organization, and the chief appropriately asked the Charitable Trusts Unit at the Attorney General's Office to look into it..," Pappas said.
"That is a personnel matter," said Pappas, adding the police commission has final authority.
Anthony I. Blenkinsop, director of the Charitable Trusts Unit, said Friday he hasn't finished his investigation.
Seusing told the Sunday News in late March that he asked for the probe after learning the nonprofit paid Howe to clean the building it owns on Kinsley Street with a Visa debit card instead of by check.
Seusing could be reached if needed for emergencies, Pappas said.
The police department is well-organized, with seven captains and well-trained supervisors in the second largest police department in the state, Pappas said. It has 179 sworn officers, the second-largest department in the state, behind Manchester, Pappas said.
It is healthy to have an independent police commission oversee police, he said.
Lozeau said it is time for more cooperation so she can keep the board of alderman and the public informed without interfering with any investigations.
"I am looking for the police department to feel as though they are part of rest of team, that we all work together."

7 Security Gaps in the Neglected 90% of Your Application
Click here to download now
Overview: Software applications need to be delivered faster and across more platforms than ever. To build high quality software in short order, we've seen a dramatic shift from source code to component-based development, with open source and third party components providing the innovation and efficiency that developers need. Unfortunately, our dependence on components is growing faster than our ability to secure them. Worse yet, components are increasingly the preferred attack surface in today's applications. The combination of growing component usage, coupled with lack of security, requires us to urgently re-evaluate traditional application security approaches. Read this paper to identify practical next steps for closing this security gap.

Buchholz, Hughes set to square off in rubber match
Twins hope to contain Ortiz after torrid start to series on offense
Of late, the Red Sox have shown glimpses of emerging into the type of team they were last year, when they won the World Series.
But one of the missing ingredients is Clay Buchholz, who has been inconsistent thus far.
The wiry righty will take the ball in Thursday's matinee, hoping to give the Red Sox their fourth straight series win.
Buchholz (2-3, 6.44 ERA) gave up 10 hits and six runs over 4 1/3 innings in his last start, a loss to the Rangers.
"Against Oakland [two starts ago], the changeups he used were very good," said Red Sox manager John Farrell. "It was a little bit elusive for him last time. He didn't have quite the feel in Texas. The linescore showed what took place. We can't deny that. We're still striving for the consistency that we've been accustomed with him."
Buchholz will be opposed by a pitcher the Red Sox are plenty familiar with in former Yankee Phil Hughes.
Hughes has been hot of late, going 4-0 in his last four starts with a 2.05 ERA.
The righty fired seven shutout innings against the Tigers to earn the win in his last start.
"When you're around the plate and pop a fastball up every now and then, they're going to be aggressive and swing at it," said Hughes. "That's kind of what I am. Sometimes it hurts me a little bit if I'm around the plate too much, but when I have good stuff, it's usually all right."
In 22 appearances against the Red Sox, Hughes is 5-7 with a 5.70 ERA. David Ortiz has done plenty of damage against him, hitting .409 with two homers and seven RBIs in 22 at-bats.
Thus far in this series, it hasn't mattered much who has been on the mound for the Twins. Ortiz has tormented them, going 7-for-10 with four homers.
"The guy is a great hitter and it's hard to know where to play him, but I know you can't play him in the seats," said Twins manager Ron Gardenhire. "The key is to keep him out of those RBI opportunities. He can only do so much damage with nobody else out there."
Red Sox: Napoli an on-base machine
Though he hasn't hit with the thunder of Ortiz in recent days, Mike Napoli continues to be an on-base machine for the Red Sox in the cleanup spot.
The first baseman has reached base in 33 straight games, the longest active streak in the Majors.
"I feel up and down," said Napoli. "Sometimes I feel really good. Sometimes not so good. I'm just trying to see the ball deep and hit the ball to all fields."
Napoli has a .398 on-base percentage, just two points ahead of Ortiz for the team lead.
Twins: Willingham likely to begin rehab assignment Friday
Outfielder Josh Willingham is scheduled to take batting practice before Thursday's game against the Red Sox, and if all goes well, he'll start a rehab assignment with Triple-A Rochester on Friday. But there's still no timetable for the return of Willingham, who is on the 15-day disabled list with a small fracture in his left wrist.
"We don't have a timetable, but he's going to have to prove he's healthy, and show that's he ready to help us," Twins assistant general manager Rob Antony said.
Worth noting:
• The Red Sox are 10-4 all-time at Target Field.
• Ortiz is now a career .528 (28-for-53) hitter with nine homers and 22 RBIs in 13 games at Target Field.
• Brian Dozier has an eight-game hitting streak at Target Field, in which he's hitting .350 with a homer and five RBIs.

acting like you hate some one when you really want to get with them, or you actually really like them. people often do this when they're not ready to admit they like someone.
When a girl is overrejecting a guy, she will often try and burst his ego. She will also talk to her friends about said guy in a manner that makes him seem like hes not likeable.

Nike Letter
My name is Matthew Walzer. I am a high school student and will be a junior at Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida.
I was born two months premature on October 19, 1995. I weighed only two pounds fourteen ounces, and because my lungs were fully not developed, my brain did not receive enough oxygen. As a result, I have a brain injury that caused me to have Cerebral Palsy. Fortunately, I am only affected physically, as others can be affected mentally, physically or both.
I have overcome many challenges in my life. Although doctors from the country's top hospitals told my parents that I would never walk; and if I ever talked I would have a major lisp, these diagnoses proved to be false, I walk somewhat independently around my home and use crutches when I'm out or at school. I've also never had a speech problem. In fact, I am planning on attending college. I have attained a 3.9 grade point average (4 being the highest) and I am taking advanced placement classes. I have a strong passion for journalism and write for the sports and news sections of my high school newspaper. This year I personally received an award for writing one of the top high school sports columns in my county.
Out of all the challenges I have overcome in my life, there is one that I am still trying to master, tying my shoes. Cerebral palsy stiffens the muscles in the body. As a result I have flexibility in only one of my hands which makes it impossible for me to tie my shoes. My dream is to go to the college of my choice without having to worry about someone coming to tie my shoes everyday
I've worn Nike basketball shoes all my life. I can only wear this type of shoe because I need ankle support to walk. I am currently wearing the Lunar hyper gamer and LeBron Zoom Soldier 6's. At 16 years old, I am able to completely dress myself, but my parents still have to tie my shoes. As a teenager who is striving to become totally self-sufficient, I find this extremely frustrating, and at times, embarrassing.
I know that Nike makes slip-ons, sandals and other types of shoes. However, I and many other physically challenged people are unable to wear them due to a lack of support. When I think of Nike, I think of one of America's most innovative and forward thinking companies. Nike is always pushing the limits, making their shoes lighter, faster and stronger by using new materials, new designs and new technologies. This benefits people all around the world. Bill Bowerman said it best, "If you have a body you are an athlete." I believe everyone, no matter what their physical, economic, or social circumstances may be, deserves to call themselves an athlete, and deserves to have a sense of freedom and independence.
If Nike would design and produce basketball and running shoes with moderate support and some kind of closure system that could be used by everyone, Nike could create a shoe line that attracts people that face the same physical challenges I did and still do, yet it could still be possible for anyone to wear them.
I am always searching the web for any type of shoe brand that makes athletic shoes that provide good support, are self-lacing and are made for everyday wear or for playing sports. It is disappointing that no athletic brand has taken the creative initiative to design and produce athletic shoes in this category. I hope that by bringing this to your attention, Nike will consider being the forerunner in producing athletic shoes that will make the difference in the quality of so many lives.
This letter is not a business proposal. I am simply making you aware that there is a need for this type of athletic shoe, a great need.
Thank you for taking the time to read this letter. No matter what challenges I've faced in my life, I've always strived to be independent, independence is for everyone.
Best Regards,
Matthew Walzer

I have got to add something, this young man writes well and I believe this is America he is USA I really hope Nike step up because I really don't want them to lose consumers over this. great job thank God for you Matthew very inspirational I will buy a pair the minute they drop in stores in support if you Go Matthew
ReplyDeleteI saw these innovative laces that can turn any shoes into slip-ons. The website is for start-up companies and since they surpassed their fundraising goal they will likely produce more. They're not as cheap as I'd like so I haven't bought them and thus can't tell you how well they work, but look into them. Hope this helps!!! http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hickies/hickies-turn-your-kicks-into-slip-ons?ref=live
Just tweeted at you but I also suffer from a mild form of cerebral palsy on the left hemisphere of my body. I played sports in high school but was definitely limited because of inappropriate foot wear per my condition. Self sufficiency was my one mission. My heart goes out to you man and it seems like you have the right attitude and approach to go far, regardless of who ties your shoes. Keep on truckingThis would be appealing to people with disabilities and anyone with fine motor/dexterity issues including aging boomers with arthritis. This could extend the Nike brand to boomers who want to continue to be independent, stylish and keep their cool factor while having function that could assist them. Good luck! I'll try to help by posting @Independence1st on this.
ReplyDeleteAWesome letter. I have so many friends and students with disabilities who struggle with shoes, either with the lacing aspect or trying to fit them over AFOs. In my case, I have a slight foot deformity from rheumatoid arthritis -- just enough to make most shoes not fit right.

I am very curious to see what gets tied up and what characters, if any, are able to make it to Rebels. Since we know that there are some Jedi in Rebels, maybe some go on a "long mission" or to a hidden planet?
Finally, we have some more information on the last episodes of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. The following was posted on Dave Filoni's Facebook Page Friday Night:
"Star Wars fans - I have some exciting news! We have wrapped production on all of the remaining Star Wars: The Clone Wars episodes, and while that might be sad news in one way, it's good news in another. It means you will finally get to see them. When, exactly, is a detail I cannot yet share. I can confirm that in early 2014 you will be watching the final episodes of The Clone Wars, including one of Master Yoda's most challenging missions. So, get ready. We've got Clone Wars and Rebels coming at you in 2014. Animated Star Wars is alive and well. Trust in the Force my friends".
Early 2014! That means soon! Hopefully, there will be something at the Star Wars Rebels Panel at the New York Comic Con. Stayed tuned Maniacs. Until then check out this clip that Star Wars.com released just days after the series finale. How did the Clones get to this point and how much of a prelude will we get for Order 66?

All I want to see if the story line of Asoka Tano closed properly.
@kinetoscope - Many Jedi survived Order 66. Most ran all over the place. Killing them all is what Darth Vader was mainly doing in between EP. 3 and EP 4.
Excellent news! This was an amazing series and it deserves a proper conclusion. Curious to see what, if any, (other than the obvious) characters carry over to the Rebels series.
I wonder if somehow order 66 activated early in that clone since some of them might have been rushed thru production?
I agree therockdltj, most likely he's was triggered early and saw the Jedi as traitors and as any good soldier he must follow orders and kill the traitors, it's nice to see a adding to this great series.
It's still going to be a cut off however right? With no clear resolution to the series? Guess it does not have to but it would be nice for a series final.

How difficult is it to pronouce the French R ? Would two or three private sessions with a tutor help?
- I have difficulty pronouncing R after T or D and at the beginning of a word especially.
Answer by Elvin
Well, the pronunciation is definitely different and may need some practice. A tutor could definitely help, but the most important thing would be to listen and watch how he or she moves his or her mouth or tongue. - How much work would be required to move a satellite of mass m from a circular orbit of radius r_1=2r_E about the Earth to another circular orbit of radius r_2 = 3r_E? (is the radius of the Earth.)
Express your answer in terms of the variable m and constants r_E, M_E and G.
Answer by normally laconic
For simplicity, let me use R = r_E and M = M_E.
GPE = -GmM/2R
and KE = ½mv² = ½m(GM/2R) = GmM/4R →(this from v²/r = GM/r²)
GPE = -GmM/3R
and KE = GmM/6R
Work Required = "later" – "initially" = (GmM/R)(1/6 – 1/3 – (1/4 – 1/2) )
Work = (GmM/R)(1/12)(2 – 4 – (3 – 6)) = GmM/(12R) - I listen to mostly rock and electronic music and not much soul or R&B and I'm trying to listen to more music more often. I can never tell the difference between soul and R&B. And it would help if you would share a link to an R&B song and then a Soul song that don't sound alike…
Answer by ♥
R&B, stands for rhythm & blues. R&B is derived from jazz, gospel and blues. It came along in the 1940′s. Soul music combines elements of gospel and rhythm and blues. It is pretty much just blending that gospel sound, you know that you hear in churches, with R&B music. It came along in the late 1950′s.Here are a few examples of "early" Soul and R&B music:
Soul music:
Sam Cooke http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovpIZqSgnOg
Ray Charles http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1x3aA67mgH0R&B music:
Louis Jordan http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXegyQvEDec
Johnny Otis http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6hinSB4m4AOver the years R&B and soul music has changed.
In the 70′s, R&B and soul music added elements of funk and disco.
In the 80′s, "contemporary R&B" came along (which combines elements of R&B, soul, pop, and funk).
In the 90′s on into the early 2000′s, "hip hop soul" was popular (which is combing elements of R&B, soul, and hip hop music) and "neo soul" (which combines elements of R&B, soul, jazz, pop, & hip hop).
In the late 2000′s into the 2010′s, R&B music developed more an electro-pop sound.Today, people no longer sing just straight "rhythm & blues" music anymore. I think R. Kelly is the only person who channeled it, in this day and age, with his song "When a Woman Loves". Some of today's R&B singers sing either neo soul or contemporary R&B. Which are both derivatives of R&B music. (Just like how heavy metal, punk, and soft rock are all derivatives of rock music.)
Most of today's R&B singers, however, sing this electro-pop R&B, such as Beyonce, Rihanna, Usher, and Chris Brown.
Hope I explained it good enough for ya
- What is the maximum volume of a cylinder that can be inscribed in a sphere of radius R?
After computing the expression for maximum value, assume R=5m. Find the value of the volume of both the sphere and cylinder.
If someone could help me with the first part I can probably do the second part on my own. Thanks!
Answer by unmasked
Consider a sphere centered at the origin with the z axis going up, the y axis going to the right and the x axis going towards you.The top and bottom of an inscribed cylinder will trace circles in the sphere. The radius of the circle depends on the angle φ measured downward from the z axis.
The radius of this circle is Rsinφ and the length from the circle to the x axis is Rcosφ (consider the right triangles made by a line from the origin to the circle at this point).
So what we have is a cylinder with radius Rsinφ and length 2Rcosφ.
V(cyllinder) = 2π * radius² * height = 2πR³sin²φcosφ
The volume is maximized when sin²φcosφ is maximized.
d[sin²φcosφ]/dφ = 2sin(φ)cos²(φ) – sin³(φ) = 0
2sin(φ)cos²(φ) = sin³(φ)
2cos²(φ) = sin²(φ)
2cos²(φ) = 1 – cos²(φ)
3cos²(φ) = 1
cos²(φ) = 1/3
cos(φ) = 1/√31 – cos²(φ) = sin²(φ) = 2/3
sin²φcosφ = 2/(3√3) <--- max value
V(cyllinder) = 2π * radius² * height = 4πR³/(3√3)
V(R=5) = 500π/(3√3)
I think that's right but you may want to check it.
- I have the R-value and the thickness of the material, but that is all I have and I cannot quite figure out a way to find the thermal conductivity without the temprature difference. Please show me. Thnaks
Answer by born yesterday
In most cases heat transfer by conduction is an analog of Ohm's Law. Where the temperature difference corresponds to voltage, the quantity of heat transfer corresponds to amperage, and the R rating corresponds to resistance. The thickness of a conductor is only involved when the R value is given for a unit of the conductors length. The area of the conductor is used when the R value is a function of area. Without a Temperature difference there will be no heat conduction. Due to the number of variables involved, heat transfer by conduction is usually calculated with Fourier's differential equations which can be found at wikipedia under heat transfer by conduction.
Working on Some Internet Marketing
At least I am thinking about how to go about doing some internet marketing. I was looking around for some help on the topic and wondering if you need learn much before you can figure out how to do it yourself. Of course like most other things it is certainly easier if you leave the work to a person who knows what they are doing and very difficult to figure out how to do stuff on your own. You can try a lot of pro sites, like I found this ungagged dot com site and looked at it. However I have no real way to know what to think of them, because I have nothing upon which to base a comparison just yet.
