Hart, Lorenz (1895-1943)
Barely five feet tall, balding early, and possessing a disproportionately large head, Larry Hart was the first to disparage his own attractiveness. His jokes, however, masked a deeply-rooted inability to accept the possibility of romantic happiness or sexual gratification. Hart impulsively proposed marriage to several women friends, none of whom thought his offer serious. And when he allowed himself to act upon his desire for other men, he seems to have had difficulty performing sexually. (Biographer Frederick Nolan quotes one unidentified male partner's shock at discovering Hart cowering in the bedroom closet after sex, suggesting that the songwriter was unable actively to pursue homosexual pleasure without being overcome by guilt.) The result of such emotional imbroglio is that, despite having written lyrics as witty as any sung on the Broadway stage before or since, Hart is best remembered for his songs of unfulfilled desire and failed romance. Born Lorenz Milton Hart on May 2, 1895, to an immigrant Jewish family, Hart learned from his entrepreneur father that self-assertion allows survival. Never without a business venture, many of which were dishonest, Hart's father provided Larry with a lasting model for the cycles of impulsive free-spending and resulting impecuniosity that characterized Hart's own life. Hart entertained both friends and strangers lavishly, often living far beyond his means, but with a (sometimes unfounded) optimism that something would turn up. And, like his father, Hart was a ball of ferocious energy, both physically and creatively. Recalls Oscar Hammerstein II, "In all the time I knew him, I never saw him walk slowly. I never saw his face in repose. I never heard him chuckle quietly. He laughed loudly and easily at other people's jokes and at his own, too. His large eyes danced, and his head would wag. He was alert and dynamic and fun to be with." As disorganized and undisciplined as he was tirelessly inventive verbally, Hart possessed a nervous energy that could make him an exasperating person to work with. Words poured so easily from him that, increasingly as he aged, he preferred socializing and drinking with hangers-on to working. And although Hart seems to have inspired genuine affection in everyone he met, no one who knew him was surprised when he died on November 22, 1943, of pneumonia contracted while wandering the streets of Manhattan in a downpour, badly intoxicated. Composer Richard Rodgers, with whom Hart began an extraordinarily successful collaboration in 1919, recollected that when he met Hart he acquired "in one afternoon a career, a best friend, and a source of permanent irritation." Their early years together, spent writing musical revues and novelty songs for burlesque comedians, culminated in their first Broadway hit, A Connecticut Yankee, in 1927. Finding their chances of continued financial success in New York severely limited by the Great Depression, however, they followed many of their Broadway contemporaries to Hollywood where, after the initial success of writing the songs for Maurice Chevalier and Jeannette MacDonald in Love Me Tonight (1932), they were frustrated by the pedestrian projects they were assigned by studios, and by the increasing criticism that Hart's lyrics were too witty and too darkly satiric to succeed on sets decorated with plastic palm trees. Their return to New York resulted in their final and most fruitful period, which saw the hit productions of Jumbo in 1935, On Your Toes and Babes in Arms in 1936, The Boys from Syracuse (a musicalization of Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors) in 1938, and the breakthrough musical Pal Joey in 1940. Apart from their polysyllabic rhymes and sophisticated wit (master poet W. H. Auden included Hart's "Take Him, He's Yours" in an anthology of light verse), Hart's lyrics are remarkable for two reasons. First, they are amazingly frank about sexual matters. In Pal Joey, the title character openly boasts of the sexual chase in "Happy Hunting Horn"; his credo is suggested by the double entendre inscribed in the title of another of the play's songs, "Do It the Hard Way." His inamorata, philandering socialite Vera Simpson, sings of her mid-life sexual reawakening in "Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered": "I'll sing to him / Each spring to him / And worship the trousers that cling to him." Far from being taken sexual advantage of, Vera is shrewd about the paradoxical nature of sexual desire. Men, she observes, are stimulants, "Good for the heart / Bad for the nerves," or ornaments which are "Useless by day / Handy by night." And if she complains that men are "all alike," she's also honest enough to acknowledge that they're "all I like."

Effects of cottonseed cake-based diets supplemented with blood meal, alone or with lysine, on the growth of pigsTools Fombad, R. B. and Bryant, M. J. (2004) Effects of cottonseed cake-based diets supplemented with blood meal, alone or with lysine, on the growth of pigs. Tropical Animal Health and Production, 36 (4). pp. 385-395. ISSN 0049-4747 Full text not archived in this repository. To link to this article DOI: 10.1023/B:TROP.0000026660.09304.38 Abstract/SummaryAn experiment was carried out to establish the effect on the growth of pigs of including blood meal or lysine in diets containing gossypol from cottenseed cake. Forty Landrace x Large White pigs (20 of each sex) were randomly allocated to 5 treatments of 8 pigs each in a 2x2 factorial design with two levels of lysine or two levels of blood meal in the diets plus a control diet. The pigs were fed different diets and slaughtered at 75.0+/-2.0 kg live weight for carcase analysis. Supplementing the diets with blood meal resulted in higher live weight gains (p<0.001) and improved feed conversion ratios (p<0.001) than supplementing with lysine. Pigs fed the higher level of cottonseed cake showed a significant (p<0.001) depression in live weight gain and feed conversion ratio compared to those fed a low level of the cake. There was no significant difference (p>0.05) in intake in the pigs fed diets with cottonseed cake including blood meal or synthetic lysine. The kidney and liver weights of the pigs fed the diets with a higher level of cottonseed cake were significantly greater (p<0.001) than in those fed the lower level, but when the diets containing cottonseed cake were supplemented with blood meal or lysine at the same level there was no significant difference (p>0.05) in the weights of these organs. Lysine or other factors derived from blood meal appear to be more efficient than synthetic lysine in reducing the adverse effects of gossypol.

I just joined the conversation on the blog mentioning just that. Also asked for confirmation of whether I worked out the reason my stats are always a little short. Basically, it appears my first ride, on the morning of January 1 is excluded, presumably because that was still last year in the time zone the YTD calculations are made in (be that somewhere in the US or GMT)

Stars 5, Kings 1
After trading away two of their top offensive catalysts, the Dallas Stars have managed to remain in the Western Conference playoff race by using a more balanced attack.
Ray Whitney and Vernon Fiddler both scored twice during Dallas' four-goal third period, and the Stars broke open a tie game and routed the Los Angeles Kings 5-1 on Tuesday night.
Whitney snapped a 1-1 tie just 52 seconds into the third, and the Stars poured on the offense en route to their third straight win.
Seven players have scored the 13 goals the Stars have tallied during those victories.
One week after dealing veterans Jaromir Jagr and Derek Roy before the NHL trade deadline, the Stars moved into ninth place in the West - two points behind Detroit in the last postseason slot.
Fiddler had just one goal in his previous 36 games, but he has two goals and five assists in his past four.
''I'm not here to score goals, but it's always nice to contribute,'' he said. ''We've lost some guys that produce offense, and some of us have to step up and contribute. It seems things are clicking. We've found a little bit of chemistry and we have to keep it going if we want to make the playoffs.''
Alex Goligoski also scored and Trevor Daley added two assists for the Stars, who entered the night with the worst home record in the West. They improved to 9-9-2 at home.
''I thought that we came out in the third, and getting that goal early certainly helped,'' said Stars coach Glen Gulutzan said, whose club has won three of four against the defending Stanley Cup champions this season. ''(We) got a little energy from it and kept going. When you're spreading the scoring around, it gives everybody else a little bit of confidence.
''That's all guys need, and this is the right time of year to have it.''
Richard Bachman, who had played a total of 35 minutes since his previous start on Feb. 26, stopped all 22 shots he faced after replacing Kari Lehtonen 14:18 in.
''It was fun playing again, that's for sure,'' said Bachman, who made 16 saves in the second period. ''Confidence-wise, it's huge for me. And more importantly, I hope I gave them some confidence if they need to have me in there, that I can help get the job done.''
Lehtonen started his 19th straight game but left because of a lower body injury after making seven saves and allowing one goal.
''It's mild and we'll reassess it (Wednesday).'' Gulutzan said.
Drew Doughty scored for the Kings, who came off a 4-3 shootout loss at Anaheim on Sunday and dropped to 5-2-2 in their last nine games. Jonathan Quick made 26 saves.
''The third was just a terrible period for us,'' said Kings leading scorer Anze Kopitar, who was on the ice for all four Stars goals in the third period. ''Our line, we can't get scored on four times in one period. It definitely wasn't good.
''We can't just forget about this period. We've got to address it. A period like this, it's unacceptable.''
Whitney scored 52 seconds into the final period, taking a pass from rookie Alex Chiasson and sending a wrist shot from the high slot over Quick's glove to give Dallas its first lead.
Robyn Regehr's giveaway in his zone set up Dallas' Stephane Robidas for a slap shot from the right point. Fiddler deflected the puck out of midair while in front for his first of the night at 7:58.
''It was a great shot by Robi,'' Fiddler said. ''I just do what I do, stand in front of the net and hope it goes in off me.''
Another turnover by Regehr led to Whitney's ninth of the season at 11:06, a one-timer into an open net from in front after he took a pass from Loui Eriksson.
''We didn't come out and play in the third period the way we wanted to,'' Regehr said. ''My two plays there were directly responsible for two goals against, and we just can't have that, not in a very tight hockey game like that.''
Fiddler closed the scoring with his fourth of the year at 13:56 when he fired the puck from the left corner into the crease, squeezing its way past Quick to make it 5-1.
''We turned the puck over pretty regularly,'' Kings coach Darryl Sutter said. ''Every time we lose bothers me, but with the schedule, we don't have time to get our top players to play better. Unfortunately, some of them have not played very well against Dallas this year.''
Dallas got into trouble early when Eriksson was whistled for a four-minute, high-sticking penalty just 34 seconds in. It took the Kings just 39 seconds to capitalize, as Kopitar fed a cross-ice pass to Doughty in the left circle for a wrist shot that beat Lehtonen over the glove at 1:13.
With the Kings still on the power play, Dallas nearly got one while short-handed at 2:25 when Fiddler raced into the Los Angeles zone on a 2-on-1 rush with Eric Nystrom. With Doughty taking away the pass option, Fiddler fired a wrist shot from the slot that Quick stopped with his pad.
The Stars tied it at 11:16, just six seconds after Jordan Nolan's cross-checking penalty expired, when Goligoski retrieved a loose puck in the left circle and blasted a slap shot that beat a screened Quick just inside the right post.
NOTES: The Stars honored former G Eddie Belfour as part of their 20th anniversary All-Time team. Belfour played just five of his 18 NHL seasons in Dallas, but was a key component of the teams that won the Stanley Cup in 1999 and returned to the finals the following year. ... The Kings are 16-2-2 when scoring first. ... Robidas and Daley were both plus-4. Kopitar and Kings captain Dustin Brown were minus-4.

This has got to be a hilarious situation. A furious Yankee fan, angry at the transactions the team has made during this offseason finally had his limits when the Yankees did not sign Johnny Damon and instead got Randy Winn. This was the final straw for this fan.
Big League Stew has the story here!
Via Jon Heyman, Brian Cashman offered a one-year, $6M contract to Johnny Damon last week, however he never received a response. The deal would have included a $3M salary in 2010 with another $3M deferred without interest, and came with the promise that Hal Steinbrenner was going to sign off on it. Cashman simply never heard back from Damon and his camp, so they moved on to Randy Winn.
Heyman is a pretty solid writer who has good sources, so I'm willing to bet that either Damon thinks he's going to get a better deal elsewhere or he has a stupid agent. This is looking more and more like Bobby Abreu last year.
ESPN's Buster Olney is reporting that sources are indicating that the Yankees have signed free agent outfielder Randy Winn, effectively ruling out any chance of a Johnny Damon return.
Winn has reportedly signed a 1 year, $2 Million contract and it seems that the Yankees have made an extremely good signing. Although he only hit .262 with 51 RBI and a .318 OBP in 2009, Winn is a career .286 hitter with a .344 OBP. In 2007 and 2008, he hit .306 and .300 respectively.
At a paltry $2 Million, he's a STEAL. If he sucks, who cares? If he repeats '07 or '08 numbers the Yankees make out big time. In 2009, Winn made over $9 Million as a member of the San Francisco Giants.
RIP Johnny Damon in pinstripes.
The Yankees announced Tuesday that they have traded for Texas Rangers minor league outfielder Greg Golson, who batted .258 and 40 RBI in 123 games for Triple-A Oklahoma City. Despite his low offensive numbers, Golson is considered to be a great athlete with speed and a great outfield arm.
Although it is unclear at this time what the Yankees' plans for Golson are, but he was added to the team's 40-man roster on Tuesday. I would assume he will be given a chance to play for the big league team to add speed and defense off the bench.

I finally got my man to do some vocals on this...Justin Chapman(sound engineer)....Victor( producer/vocals)...Camero n(vocals)..comment and let me know what ya think!!
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
boost the vocals
i was digging it for a while, but man, the vocals are TOO low. the backing music overpowers the vocals, especially the drums. the cymbals completely wipe out the vocals during the rapping section. drop the drums down and boost the vocals and I think this would be awesome.
thanks...i just posted the updated song and did some eq and compression work to boost some thing and tighten some stuff up...let me know if it helped!
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
wayyy 2 much

Colophon2009: video 1
Part one of the Colophon2009 video: exhibitions at the Casino, Karen, iDN, Leibling, Nuke, BabyBabyBaby, La Mas Bella.
Colophon update
Later this week the video record of Colophon2009 should be available online, along with first details of Colophon2011. Meanwhile, you can read James Pallister's review of the weekend in this month's Creative Review, above, while the latest issue of Kasino A4, below, features their photographic record (another great issue, btw)
Athenaeum window display
Amsterdam magazine/book store Athenaeum has decorated their windows with the 'We Make Magazines' book. Thank you!
We Make Magazines – the exhibition
The exhibition based on the book: 111 independent magazines presented at the Casino Luxembourg as part of Colophon2009. Divided into five sections featuring quotes from the people behind the magazines along with copies of each magazine hung from wire for visitors to flick through.
6/10: La Mas Bella
During Colophon2009 I set out to record something of the ten invited magazines here. I got up to five before the event itself took over, and like my fellow curators Mike and Andrew I found myself missing many of the highlights as well as finding myself unable to return to the magazine exhibitions to take pictures.
Colophon2009; Inspirations Room
Andrew, Mike and I selected 111 independent magazines for the 'We Make Magazines' book and exhibition at Colophon2009, then those 111 magazines chose their favorite inspirations. Here's an imperfect but I hope useful video of that room at the Casino.
The URL has been registered. See you there!
Meanwhile, read Andrew's overview of 2009 and check his extensive list of Colo-links.
Strange postings
Found in the men's toilets at the Casino: a curious piece of A4 paper.
The magazine
Thanks to Kati, Guido and their teams, the Colophon magazine project is taking shape. More soon.

Editors' Review
+Instamap creates fun, interactive maps of all of the Instagram pictures and profiles that are active near you. It sometimes struggles to find exactly where you are, but that can be fixed with a basic search. It's a great way to connect to more Instagram users near you or to browse the sites of a particular destination with the service.
Instamap lets you see dozens of pictures that have been recently uploaded to Instagram with location data. It won't let you see any private pictures or pictures without location data, of course. The app will try to automatically find you if you have location services enabled, but it took a while to find us during testing and sometimes placed us further away from where we actually were. Luckily, you can just search for an area to see pictures from it. There's a cool "airplane" feature that flies you into a random location, too. Instamap lets you see all of the nearby pictures plotted on a map, but also lets you browse them in a list layout so you can see captions, comments, and even the user who uploaded them. If you sign in with your own Instagram account, you can add comments to pictures, like them, show the stream of a user, and follow a user. The app supports ads, but these are not intrusive at all.
The app's constant photo updates make it a unique way to browse Instagram. If you prefer to see more pictures than what your friends have to offer, Instamap is a cool way to make new connections to active users. It serves as a neat way to see some of the hotspots and nightlife of a city you're visiting, too.
Publisher's Description
+Instamap is a fun way to see what is happening around you. It shows you geotagged Instagram photos that were taken around your location or any other location in the world. Do you want to see what your city has to offer?Do you want to see pictures from location where you like to travel to?Then this app is for you. With this app it is also possible to like Instagram photos or comment on them. You just have to authorize this app to use your Instagram data and you can like and comment on every pic you see. It is a great way to learn more about your location, get new followers and even meet new friends. But you don't need an Instagram to use this app. Want to see what is happening in Sidney right now? Or see some pictures taken in Tibet? The Instagram community is really big and you can browse through the whole world to see what is posted there. Just drag the map to the desired location and press the refresh button. It will automatically grab photos that where posted in the area the map currently displays.More features will follow soon. Just stay tunedRecent changes:- See the photo stream of a user (if logged in)- Ability to follow/unfollow a user- Grid layout- Fly around the worldContent rating: Low Maturity

Wong, Kong-Fatt, Eckhoff, Philip, Holmes, Philip and Cohen, Jonathan (2007) Analysis of a biologically realistic model for saccade-countermanding tasks. In: Society for Neuroscience 2007, San Diego, CA, USA. Society for Neuroscience. 1 pp. [Conference contribution]
Full text not available from this repository.
In saccade-countermanding tasks, fixation neurons in the frontal eye fields or superior colliculus have high activity during fixation period, sending inhibition to the (build-up) movement neurons. Upon fixation offset and a simultaneous presentation of a Go signal or target, the movement neurons, with response fields where the target lies, exhibit ramping activity. If this ramping activity reaches a certain threshold, a saccade will be made toward the target. However, when a Stop signal appears briefly after target onset, the reactivation of the fixation neurons may suppress the activity of the movement neurons before it reaches threshold, thus producing successful suppression of saccade. The time between onset of the Go and Stop signals is called the stop-signal delay, which is varied by the experimentalists.In this work, we construct a biologically realistic model of saccade-countermanding tasks. The model consists of a population of movement neurons and a population of fixation neurons. Using phase-plane analysis, we show, under certain sets of network parameters, that even if the stop signal occurs before the movement neuronal activity reaches threshold, a saccade can still subsequently occur. We further investigate how inhibitory control of saccades optimizes reward rate, and how this depends on the stop-signal delay, the probability of target presentation, and the probability of having a stop signal within a block of trials.

Minnesota Sewer Workers Push Dog Out of Culvert
Happy barks for these great guys!
Thanks to Lynnfor barking in this good news from KMOV.com.
Workers Free Dog Trapped in Sewer Pipe
MANKATO, Minn. (AP) -- The sound of barking underneath a street Tuesday led a team of city workers to a dog trapped in a narrow culvert - and you might say they used a backward approach to rescue the mutt.
The sickly, scared dog was about 50 feet from the nearest entry point, but since the culvert was just 15 inches in diameter, the workers couldn't fit into it themselves. Not even offers of food could draw out the dog."He was exhausted," said Tony Talamantez, a public works foreman.
Then Talamantez and his colleagues had an idea. They rigged up a long video camera used to inspect drain pipes, and approached the dog from the back. They used the camera to nugdge the dog forward until he reached an entry point big enough for a person to pull him out.
The camera recorded the rescue, showing the dog scampering ahead in fits and starts as the camera pokes him in the rear end.
The dog wore no tags, only a worn collar. But Julia Gosen, animal control officer for the city, said the dog's owner saw accounts of the rescue in local media and claimed him Wednesday morning.
The owner "had no idea" how the dog ended up in the drain, Gosen said. "He said he'd gone missing from their house about a day earlier."

Tears were flowing in a Winnipeg courtroom today at the sentencing hearing for a drunk driver who killed three innocent victims.
Clarke Gordon Harding, 32, has pleaded guilty to causing the January 2012 tragedy near Sanford.
Crown attorney Chris Vanderhooft told court he is seeking a six-year sentence to send home a strong message to other motorists, especially since impaired driving remains such a major issue in Manitoba.
Defence lawyer Sarah Inness asked for a three-year penalty for her client, saying he made a tragic error in judgment which will forever haunt him.
"He is not an intentional killer. He thought he would be ok (to drive)," said Inness.
Provincial court Judge Tracey Lord has reserved her decision until Nov. 4.
Harding was driving a Chrysler Sebring when he crossed into the oncoming lane of traffic and struck a Nissan pickup truck on Highway 3 southwest of Winnipeg.
The driver of the truck, Paul Kler, 64, was killed instantly. Two passengers in Harding's car also died in hospital: Ellory Kirkwood, 20, and Michelle Hastings, 21. They were both friends of Harding's who had been out at the bar with him that evening.
"I don't feel lucky that I lived. I still wish every day I could trade places with them," an emotional Harding told court today. "I wish I could take it all back. I know I don't deserve your forgiveness. I just want you to know that I'm sorry."
Family members of all three victims packed the courtroom and read powerful impact statements in court this morning, describing their loss and anguish.
"Our world was shattered that day. It's tragic your decision to drive in that state took three lives and turned our world upside down," Kler's widow, Darlene, told court.
Kler's daughter, Julie Martens, urged Harding to ensure his deadly mistake becomes a teaching tool for others.
"Tell people your story, teach our young about the devastation a bad, irresponsible choice can cause," she said. "it would be a shame to think these three deaths taught us nothing."
Updated on Tuesday, September 17, 2013 at 1:15 PM CDT: Writethru, with sentencing to take place Nov. 4.

contacts don't sync between blackberry q10 and gmail
Email and calendar sync with q10 no problem and the contacts don't. Please help, what could the the issue? Is it something in the settings?
What is the sync interval for your gmail contacts? I think it defaults to 30 minutes, maybe longer.
- 07-23-13, 10:39 AM Thread Author #3
it is 30 minutes. but i've been trying to sync my contacts for a week since i got this phone. i even deleted and reactivated the account. nothing works, it never synced not even once.

What is your OS version? I had exactly the same problem, but since upgrading to .2309, gmail sync works like a charm.
- 07-23-13, 01:06 PM Thread Author #6
i just upgraded my osx to mountain lion. now i notice that if i add a new entry in q10 it is synced with gmail contacts (woop woop that's a start!) but how to sync all the previous contacts that were already on the phone??
I am confused.
Which role does Mac OS play now?
Did you have different contacts on both Gmail and the phone, which you would like to merge now?
Or did you have all contacts on Gmail, and SOME got synced to the phone?
And what is your phone OS version? -
- 07-23-13, 02:04 PM Thread Author #8
os is 10.1.0.273. it tells me there are no updates for my phone.
only new entries sync to gmail, my contacts that were already in my phone did not sync unfotunately. - 07-23-13, 05:34 PM #9
.273 is exactly the version I had the same sync troubles with that you seem to have.
After upgrading to .2309 the problems were gone.
I'm almost sure they did something around the Gmail interface in. 2309 as it functioned so much better after the upgrade.
Sorry that you don't see an upgrade on your phone.
Try to upgrade via BlackBerry Link. If that doesn't work either, talk to your carrier. 2309 is officially available, but the carrier might hold it back.
Posted via CB10 - 07-23-13, 06:57 PM #10
I have the same issue on my Q10...
Existing contacts don't get synchronized properly (or get synchronized at a random interval that seems to take "forever"). When I modify the existing contact directly in Google, it can sometimes take "forever" (or sometimes never) to appear on my Q10. When I modify the contact on my Q10, the same thing happens where it can sometimes take "forever" (or sometimes never) to appear on my Google Contacts.
I'm using OS version 10.1.0.1720 Software Release 10.1.0.273. - 07-24-13, 01:47 PM Thread Author #11
thanks for your advice but unfortunately there are no updates available not from the device nor through Blackberry Link, it tells me that i have the latest software. Called the carrier they said they have nothing to do with that, and if after i check for software updates on the phone - there is nothing, then there is nothing...
I am also on OS version 10.1.0.1720 Software Release 10.1.0.273 - 07-24-13, 03:40 PM #12
The carrier is either lying or clueless. It's always the carrier holding up OS upgrades. Discussed here on CB extensively, pi****g off many people.
I'm sure there is a way how to get the latest SW despite the carrier blocking it, or you could go for one of the leaks which seem to work fine according to the feedbacks. I suggest you do some research in these forums, I do not have a lot of experience with these types of upgrades.
All I can say ist that with the version above the one that you have installed, the Gmail sync problems went away.
Posted via CB10 - 07-25-13, 08:34 AM Thread Author #13
Get the latest in the leaked / Beta forum. I think that the newest is 10.1.0.4687 or 10.1.0.4633. Both are very stable.

Staff Reporter
Rajahmundry: The State Tourism Project Management Unit (STPMU) is prepared to develop the historic Havelock bridge across the Godavari into a tourist spot in association with Rajahmundry Municipal Corporation once the Railway Board gives its assent to the proposal.
The Indian Railways formally expressed its willingness to give the nearly 150-year-old bridge on lease to RMC but the final decision is yet to be taken by Railway Board, said STPMU additional chief Sunita Bhagvat.
Speaking to reporters after visiting the bridge along with Mayor A Veeraraghavamma and MLA R Suryaprakasa Rao, Ms. Sunita said the bridge could be transformed into a good tourist spot by sprucing up the entire structure.
`Hats' (platforms) could be set up on both sides all along the bridge to enable the visitors to spend time on top of it. Similarly, both ends of the bridge could be given a facelift.

In Egypt's tomb of Djehutihotep, a wall painting depicts someone pouring water into the sand in front of one of the sledges that hauled the blocks used in the construction of the pyramids. According to new research, they had a good reason for doing so – by wetting the sand, as little as half as much pulling force would have been required to move those sledges. Read More
The US military fields some pretty impressive vehicles, but they aren't worth much if they don't fit on the aircraft intended to transport them. Last month, the US Navy removed one obstacle when it cleared the Boeing Phantom Badger combat support vehicle for transport inside a V-22 Osprey tiltrotor aircraft. After a battery of tests, including form-fit checks, pressure tests and structural evaluations of over four G's, the modular vehicle was a step closer to deployment by the US Marine Corps and US Air Force Special Operations.

London to trial "intelligent" pedestrian crossings
Ever walk halfway across a road only to have the light change and force you to make an undignified rush to the other side? The answer is almost certainly yes. If you're in London, that may soon be a thing of the past however, with Transport for London announcing upcoming trials of an "intelligent" pedestrian crossing. Called the Pedestrian Split Cycle Offset Optimisation Technique (SCOOT), it's part of a £2 billion to £4 billion program to improve roads over the next ten years and decrease traffic fatalities in the capital by 40 percent by the year 2020.

Toyota's electric i-Road three wheeler is shaping up as the ideal combination of the best attributes of a motorcycle (maneuverability, lightweight, narrow track, small footprint, low energy consumption, fun) and a car (weather-proof, safe, stable, easy to use) and trials have now begun in Japan using the i-Road in Toyota's Ha:mo (Harmonious Mobility) vehicle-sharing project. The i-Road trials will be extended to France later this year when Toyota participates in a vehicle-sharing trial in Grenoble. Read More
Paying two, three or even ten times as much as usual for a taxi ride across town sounds like a pretty crappy deal, right?

About This Data
Note: To build this database, ProPublica obtained two sets of records from the U.S. Department of Transportation. We cleaned it to remove duplicates and other discrepancies, but it may have mistakes we didn't catch. If you find one, please let us know and include any information that may help us verify the correction. Also, the federal data is based on the states' monthly reporting and may not be up-to-date.
First, we received an updated copy of the national database of stimulus road and bridge projects as of Sept. 25. Separately, we obtained data that states filed to the federal government as part of the stimulus legislation's reporting requirements. These data list which contractors had been awarded particular projects. We were able to trace more than 90 percent of the funds to individual counties. In a few other cases, projects are statewide and cannot be narrowed to county or serve multiple counties. We've indicated those cases in the data.
Wherever possible, we matched DOT projects to state recovery filings. They did not match in every instance. The DOT projects, which total $19 billion, include hundreds of projects not yet associated with a contractor. The contractors' data totals about $13 billion in obligated funds. In a few cases, state contractors did not match a DOT project. Some projects also have multiple contractors. When there is no matching contractor information for a project, searches and lists will return a blank.
We're trying to make this information as accurate as possible, so if you see something that needs to be corrected, please let us know.

Hi all,
I have MSP 430F 1611 and I want to enable USART communication between the device and a hyper terminal. According to the slau049f f for MSP430x1xx pdf file, it is possible to do the same. I am using a java program and putty as the program to receive the outputs from the device. Neither seems to be getting any outputs from the MSP. I have provide code snippets so that the forum members can highlight and possibly give an explanation of the area where I am faltering in the code. I also read through the slau049 - MSP 430x1xx pdf and have put values as per the explanation provided for the registers in the pdf document.
First, I initialize the halInit() and also enable the interrupts. Next, I have the code as shown below P3SEL |= 0x30; // P3.4,5 = USART0 TXD/RXD ME1 |= UTXE0 + URXE0; // Enable USART0 TXD/RXD UCTL0 |= CHAR; // 8-bit character UTCTL0 |= SSEL1 ; // UCLK = ACLK = 32.768kHz --- (Tried SSEL0 ) UBR00 = 0xD0; UBR10 = 0x00; UMCTL0 = 0x00 ; UCTL0 &= ~ SWRST; // Initialize USART state machine IE1 |= URXIE0 + UTXIE0; // Enable USART0 RX/TX interrupt Then I have a while loop sending a character to the terminal while (1) { toggleLed(1); setLed(1); delayMs(1000); while (!(IFG1 & UTXIFG0)); // USART0 TX buffer ready? TXBUF0 = 0x42; }
Is this code correct? In debug mode, the loop functions and I can see the led toggling. When downloaded and executing on the device through IAR, the led is not blinking.
I removed the last two statement (while and Txbuf) and added a printf stmt and it loops through. Am I missing something in this USART code?
I am a newbie and any inputs and direction from the forum members is highly appreciated.
my first thought is:
You try to communicate with a PC on serial line right? Your PC should work with differential signals, whereas your MSP430 works with single ended signals, so you should not be able to send from PC nor receive to your PC via this communication.
I did never try it like you did though. The way I do it is a RS485 or RS232 serial connection, then, before the signal reaches the MSP430, i put a signal converter that converts to a single ended signal in the right voltage ranges ( 0...3V). And then at least you should be able to send and receive something with your PC to µC and vice versa.
Next step would be to find some adequate protocol for communication, that has for example parity checking, etc.
Hope this could help you.
In reply to seb:
Hello Seb,
Thanks for the reply. I will briefly explain the set up and my understanding, I might be wrong in my approach and thinking. The putty program or the java program is using the serial COM port to listen to the incoming signals. You can check which port the MSP is connected through your operating system. And you can have any of the programs to listen to the port and output the information. The MSP book does not mention about RS232 or RS485. All you have to do is sync correctly on both sides for an effective communication, meaning they should be set for the correct baud rate, stop bits and flow control to make the communication possible. The present code on the MSP is set approximately for 9600 baud, no stop bits, no parity enable and character length of 8 bits and this is same on the other end i.e. the java program or putty. The clock signal used for the baud rate is done through the SSEL0 or 1. Theoretically, this should function. I don't know if there is any other set up needed or this is not possible.
In reply to Dave Charles:
Dave Charles The MSP book does not mention about RS232 or RS485
So if you're sure the software is right (because it is a demo code that is supposed to work), then the only possible reason for failure is the hardware. And using the wrong electrical connection is a common reason.
_____________________________________Before posting bug reports or ask for help, do at least quick scan over this article. It applies to any kind of problem reporting. On any forum. And/or look here.If you cannot discuss your problem in the public, feel free to start a private conversation: click on my name and then 'start conversation'. But please do so only if you really cannot do it in a public thread, as I usually read all threads. And I prefer to answer where others can profit from it (or contribute to it) too.
In reply to Jens-Michael Gross:
Jens, thank you for your reply.
Yes, I agree that it talks about the protocol set up meaning (baud rate, stop bits....) and internally it could be using the RS 232 or RS 485 because it acts as a serial connection. The developer has to set the values correctly for the communication to work.
The set up demo is on the same machine, meaning, the USB connection to the MSP and the java / putty program are on the same box. I am not using an external connection (serial cable) to talk to the other program. I am not so sure that this set up is possible. I come from the socket connection world and look at all of them as sockets. I dont know if a separate set up is necessary for it to function. The java program and the putty program settings are controllable.
Jens-Michael Grossthe only possible reason for failure is the hardware. And using the wrong electrical connection is a common reason.
The box is new and there are no external connections so the possible problem, in all possible likelihood, is the code. The set up either on the receiving side or the transmitting side has a problem.
I have a question - When you output printf statements how does it come on the putty console or the java console?
Meassure the real physical Send and Receive signals that go rom and into your PC.
If they are 0...3V everything should work, but I would guess they are differential signals or TTL form the PC, as long as you are really using the serial output from your PC with nothing attached to it like a converter etc.
So I would suggest until changing software code, test your hardware, when everything is fine there test your code,
because you cannot fix hardware with software :)
That sounds smart.
Dave CharlesThe set up demo is on the same machine, meaning, the USB connection to the MSP and the java / putty program are on the same box.
Hi Jens-Michael and Seb,
Thanks for your response. I have much better idea and understanding after the explanation from both.
Jens-Michael GrossIs it an USB->serial converter? If so, the converters usually emit +-3 to +-12V RS232 signals that are not compatible with the MSP (which requires 0V/VCC TTL signals)
So then, how to interface the computer with the MSP. My requirement for this demo is to send some values to the MSP430 (CC 2530 ZNP kit to be precise). This will in turn process the information and do some further activities and transmit it wirelessly to other devices.
If there is no possibility of communicating with the MSP from the laptop and assume for this demo that I have the device connected to the USB, will I be able to communicate to the device as Jens-Michael has mentioned through the
Jens-Michael GrossIAR debugger 'fakes' a console connection by using debugging tricks,
I came across a EZ430 Chat (http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/EZ430_Chat) which uses the EZ 430 backchannel UART configuration (http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/EZ430_Backchannel_UART_Configuration). I dont know if it is applicable to my kit. A set up similar, as shown, is my requirement where I communicate from the laptop to the MSP device and back. I don't need the back communication (from device to laptop) but a forward communication to the device from the laptop is essential.
Is this possible? If not what alternatives do I have?
Teh 'fake console' works by placing a debugger breakpoint into the printf function, fetchign the value that shall be 'sent' by JTAG right form teh processor register. The code itself jsut discards the dat aand doesn't notice that the debugger pas peeping.
TZhe LaunchPad backchannel UART is a different thing. It (ab)uses two unused I/O pins of teh TUSB chip that connects the PC to the FET (1612) chip on the LaunchPad, to simulate a second serial connection. This is only available on the LaunchPad and the EZ430-RF2500. No other EZ430 hardware has this feature. But many have a separate RS232 connector with appropriate hardware.
So how to connect the MSP?
The 1611 has an USART module that offers UART (serial port) funcitonality. The output pins RX and TX need to be conencted to an RS232 transceiver such as the MAX3232 and can then be routed to a PCs COM port.Baudates of 115200Bd are no problem, if the MSP has a stable clock supply (e.g. an 8MHz crystal)
It's up to you to write a transfer function that manages the serial transfer. Including printf generates the bytes to be sent, but does not actually send them (you'll have to provide a proper putchar function that does the actual transfer)
Hi Jens-Michael,
Thanks for clearing my doubts.
I have a question to wrap-up this thread. Let say if I have a LaunchPad, is it possible to use the LaunchPad's UART to serially communicate with the CC2530 ZNP kit on UART to transfer the information from the laptop. In effect, I am using the LaunchPad as a bridge between the laptop and the CC2530 ZNP. The launchpad communicates to the laptop via the USB (provided in the kit) and the information retrieved by the launchpad from the laptop uses the UART to transfer the information to the CC2530 ZNP kit. This is a stop-gap arrangement to tide over the issue as it would be difficult to add additional requirements and development at this stage.
Any inputs would be highly appreciated.
Once again thanks for a clear explanation.
The USB connection on the LaunchPad is an USB/serial converter. And the connection between the LaunchPad MSP and the PC is a serial one, only tunneled through USB.Also, the pins on the MSPs with hardware UART are the same as required for the software timer uart.So even though the connection between MSP and PC is limited to 9600Bd, you can use the hardware UART in the bigger G chips only for the PC connection OR the CC2530 connection (and no PC conenciton at all).
Since the biggest G series MSPs have two timers, it might be possible to connec tthe PC using the hardware UART and the CC2530 using a software UART on the second timer. However, a software UART is slow, and you're too limited to a low baudrate.Worse, the G-series MSPs do not allow for a high frequency crystal that you could use as timebase for higher baudrates. So you're limited to 9600Bd or (for stability, much) less.
Well, the CC2530 is programmable too. So you might stay from a serial connection between MSP and CC2530 and implement a parallel connection. (e.g. 8 data bits and three control bits, read, write and select). It would relax timing compared to a software UART.
However, if the CC2530 is programmed using serial UART, why not using a simple USB->serial converter with TTL outputs and directly communicate with the CC2430?

Common smut is easily recognized by the tumorlike galls that form on any aboveground plant part. Galls at first are a glistening, greenish white to silvery white. Galls on ears and stems expand and fill with masses of powdery, dark olive brown to black spores. Galls on leaves and tassels remain small and become hard and dry. Ear and stem galls rupture, and wind, rain, or irrigation water spread them through the garden.
Identification | Life cycle
Remove and destroy tumorlike growths as soon as noticed; keep the black powder in galls from getting into the soil. Plant early as common smut becomes more prevalent in later harvests. All corn varieties are susceptible to common smut to some degree. Try to plant varieties that are the least susceptible to the disease. Rotating out of corn for as long as possible can help reduce overwintering spores in the soil.

We hope you enjoy this authentic Indian music and share it with your friends.
But sitting at a restaurant in Delhi the seeds for this inspired recording were sown.
Alex Johnson and I had just settled in Paharganj, and the journey to Allahabad was already unfolding effortlessly before our eyes. We were beginning pre-production of the KMP 2001 project, the documentation of the largest gathering of humans ever assembled.
We took a rickshaw to Connaught Circle and over a spirited meal we agreed that Akram would had pick the artists of his choosing and that Alex and I would continue on to Allahabad. A few weeks later we were to meet at Ved Films Studios to let some great musicians do what they do best ... play their hearts out. While sitting in the control room watching and listening, I had little doubt about the outcome of this recording."

Princess Superstar Blue Beretta Lyrics

(Kirschner)by Princess Superstar O95 ps I love you, BMI
I was drivin downtown in my blue Beretta
Wonderin' why people use Velveeta steada cheddar
Reach down to flip the tape yeah I musta ran a redda
The cop pulled me over and he said...
"Hey aren't you Concetta?!!"
Like Davy I'm a believer
Like stolen goods I'm a comin to seize ya
I don't want you to get the wrong idea
But I got more fingers than Jerry Garcia...
See ya!
I got more answers to your questions than Alex Trebec
And if I was a sandwich I'd be triple deck
It's the high-tech section of your audio selection
Put down the white-out chump I don't need no correction
Takin MC's out like Barclay vs. Barney
Go to Mount Airy Lodge where my host is named Marney
MC's try to dis but they can't touch these solos
If you wanna come correct, be like Mike D. go to the movies,
Eat some Rolos
I never take intermissions
I got more rhymes than John's got Peel sessions
I'm peanut butter and my man is Fluff
Wrap the Wonder Bread around us
We never get enough
Yo peace to....

An investigation of the orientation and temperature dependence of domain wall properties in FePt is presented. The authors use a microscopic, atomic model for the magnetic interactions within an effective, classical spin Hamiltonian constructed on the basis of spin-density functional calculations. They find a significant dependence of the domain wall width as well as the domain wall energy on the orientation of the wall with respect to the crystal lattice. Investigating the temperature dependence, they demonstrate the existence of elliptical domain walls in FePt at room temperature. The consequences of their findings for a micromagnetic continuum theory are discussed. (c) 2007 American Institute of Physics.
