Nonlinear enhancement in photonic crystal slow light waveguides fabricated using CMOS-compatible process |
Optics Express, Vol. 19, Issue 22, pp. 22208-22218 (2011)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (1141 KB)
We have studied low-dispersion slow light and its nonlinear enhancement in photonic crystal waveguides. In this work, we fabricated the waveguides using Si CMOS-compatible process. It enables us to integrate spotsize converters, which greatly simplifies the optical coupling from fibers as well as demonstration of the nonlinear enhancement. Two-photon absorption, self-phase modulation and four-wave mixing were observed clearly for picosecond pulses in a 200-μm-long device. In comparison with Si wire waveguides, a 60 − 120 fold higher nonlinearity was evaluated for a group index of 51. Unique intensity response also occurred due to the specific transmission spectrum and enhanced nonlinearities. Such slow light may add various functionalities in Si photonics, while loss reduction is desired for ensuring the advantage of slow light.

COLUMBIA — A Columbia Fire Department firefighter suffered burns on his right hand while extinguishing a fire Tuesday morning in a north Columbia home, a department news release stated.
Lt. Doug Thoma of Engine Company 2 suffered minor burns to his right hand when some embers got between his firefighting glove and bunker coat sleeve, Battalion Chief Steven Sapp said.
Thoma was taken to University Hospital, where he is being treated at the George David Peak Memorial Burn Care Center.
Sapp said the injury is not life-threatening, and Thoma is expected to be released Wednesday morning. Thoma will return to full duty, Sapp said, but an exact date is unknown.
At 5:49 a.m., Columbia fire crews responded to report of a fire on Forest Avenue after a neighbor reported seeing smoke coming from the residence.
Three fire engines, one ladder, one rescue squad and two staff members were dispatched and the fire was extinguished in ten minutes.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation, though investigators have determined that the fire began in the back of the home. Sapp said arson is not suspected at this time.
The damage is estimated to be between $8,000 and $10,000, Sapp said. There were smoke alarms in the home, and they were sounding when the fire crews arrived, Sapp said.

Frequently Asked Questions: Online Banking
Q: Is there any special software required?
A: No, just an Internet browser that supports 128-bit encryption. The following browsers are all acceptable: Microsoft Internet Explorer version 7.0 or higher (with Secure Sockets Layer support) or Netscape Communicator version 6.0 or higher.
Q: Is Online Banking secure?
A: Yes, besides using the 128-bit encryption, Coffee County Bank's Online Banking is built with several additional safeguards to ensure your account information remains secure. Should someone attempt to access your account portfolio using an incorrect password more than three times, Coffee County Bank will lock the entire session from use for 30 minutes. Should this happen more than three times, the lockout will become permanent and can only be cleared by a Coffee County Bank employee. Should you forget to logout of Online Banking, your session will automatically be terminated after 15 minutes of no activity.
Q: What if my Access ID and/or PASSWORD do not seem to work?
A: There are a couple of solutions to this problem. The most common issue is the placement of your CAPS LOCK key. Your ACCESS ID and PASSWORD are case sensitive. The second most common issue is a complete lockout of your account. If you are not sure of your PASSWORD, and begin guessing or do not realize that you were entering your PASSWORD in wrong case, you have only three chances to get it right. As a security feature, we lockout all accounts if an incorrect PASSWORD is entered on the third try. The lockout session will last for 30 minutes. If you initiate the lockout three times, then it becomes permanent. The only way to reset a complete lockout is to send us an e-mail at email@example.com or by calling 931-728-1977 during regular business hours.
Q: Do I have to update my password?
A: Yes, as an additional security feature, the system will prompt you to change your password every six months. You must change your password as the system alerts you for continued access to your account information.
Q: How do I view presentments that are coming into my account on the current business day?
A: Once logged into CCB Online Banking, select the account you are inquiring about. Click on the "Transactions" tab and select "Current Business Day."

A flame flickers on skin of divinity burning down the flesh and bone to grey ash. The smoke clouds the sky as an offering, an offering to God for the cross they carry. Tied to wood and ignited from the bottom with matches, gasoline is poured on skin and then lit on fire. Pain is heard by quiet lips.

Let's talk about anchors some more
I like big, what most consider "oversized" anchors. My boat is 28 feet, my primary anchor is a 50 pound CQR, with 100 feet of 5/8 chain. I don't drag, set it and forget it. My second anchor or "lunch hook" is 35 pound Danforth with 30 feet of 3/8 chain and 100 feet of 1/2 inch, 3 strand. My storm anchor, that is stored in an aft Lazzerette is a 70 pound Danforth that I put on the 5/8 chain. I carry 2, 100 pound dumbells that I use as sentinal's if I anchor deep. I carry dive gear and a lift bag for dealing with this ground tackle. I also have on board a 30 pound folding fisherman (my fav.) and this claw, plow looking thing, and a 35 pound northhill. I have all these on board and use all of them all the time. I've even made some money renting some of this gear to ill equiped cruisers when a blow is coming. I don't think you can have too much ground tackle on board. I'm writing this because I want people to look at their ground tackle and consider if it's actually big enough, or do they just have what the boat came with, or what they read was the right size somewhere.

RSBS Special Correspondent and Podcast Epstein-Lover, Mr. Johanna Mahmud reports:
Failed sequels. Failed remakes.
I'm looking for a balcony I don't have. That's what the Cubs do to me. That's what a possible year without the NBA does to me. But regrets are for horseshoes and handbags, just like Oprah said! Fortunately baseball playoffs are here and a possible remake is in the works for my fellow writers, Allen and Jeff and their respective clubs. This remake reminds me of something (JESUS! I sound like Andy Rooney, you know?)…
Outside of jazz, circumcision jokes and male burlesque Chinese contortionists who wear glittered leotards and make kung-fu on you at will in an inflatable ball pit, my favorite art form is THE MOVIES! And right now, there are a lot of problems at THE MOVIES.
I'm sick of the mouth-breathing hooker pirates who are making pee on my childhood by trying to remake great films that will always be great. To all of you doing that, you can kiss my @$$. You remind me of the unoriginal jags I have to walk over every day on my way to work who are protesting Wall Street while knowing NOTHING ABOUT THAT WHICH YOU ARE YELLING.
I watch a lot of film: classics, slightly old, current, and probably some that went straight to Blockbuster. I can't stand when lazy studio heads remake the greats. The last respectable era of film making was before my time (in the late 70s) but it sure would be nice to see it again.
The Thing comes out this week. It's a remake of the bad@$$ one with Kurt Russell and Wilford Brimley. And this one just might be a good fit for a redo. Let this be a lesson. The original was smart, complete with a great story but it also had god awful effects that made it hard to watch. Meanwhile, I recently read there is a remake coming of The Goonies. WHY IS THIS NECESSARY?
My point is this: I'm rooting for mah boys' Tigers/Cardinals final dance matchup. It would be a remake that would be just fine because Oprah said so and I like whatever she tells me to like.

The Nebulousness of Mortality
Fall and the playoffs also mean the imminent death of another baseball season. Fittingly, the news outside of baseball also seems fixated on endings and death the last couple weeks. Of course there's the Michael Jackson doctor trial which seems to inspire the same kind of media circus that Jackson himself used to bring out. But there are two other endings that I find more interesting.
The first is the death of Anwar Al-Awlaki in Yemen. The dude was definitely a bad guy and behind, or at least the inspiration behind, some of the more nefarious plots against the US in the past couple years. But he was also an American citizen which makes his assassination problematic at best. Does his death make us safer? Probably. Should we be assassinating US citizens? That's a little less certain.
Obviously a lot of US citizens, a majority most likely, don't agree with Al-Awlaki's rants against the US and exhortations to do us harm. But there were also a fair amount of people who didn't like Martin Luther King's message and thought his ideas just as dangerous as those of Al-Awlaki. But the US government didn't assassinate him. No, I'm not saying that the two men are similar or that their messages bear any resemblance but I am saying that assassination is a slippery slope during the best of times. When it becomes an easily employable tool in the context of a nebulous concept like the "War on Terror," how long before it becomes a similarly employed tool within other nebulous concepts like the "War on Drugs?" Again, I'm not saying this will happen, I'm just saying it needs to be considered.
Considered in the same way that Trinity College in Dublin should have considered their options before e-executing one of their faculty. Ok, sure, Professor Conan T. Barbarian may not have been a real professor or even a real person but did he deserve so inglorious an end as to simply be deleted from a server somewhere? Precedents, people. They matter.

RSBS Special Correspondent and Podcast Outlaw, Mr. Johanna Mahmud reports:
"All I can tell you is, I wish I had a dime for every dime I had."
To commemorate my hopeful demise of the mighty money juggernaut that is the Boston Red Sox, I have decided to use one of the greatest films ever conceived to explain my feelings for this occasion.
I'm also here to remind the world of the hurt and pain that Russell Brand caused me by pissing on my childhood by remaking this classic. BASTARDDOOOO.
"Thank you for a memorable afternoon, usually one must go to a bowling alley to meet a woman of your stature."
The Red Sox are falling apart. The Tampa Bay Rays are in pursuit of the wild card and I couldn't be happier. At the beginning of the season, I, like the rest of the baseball universe, had the Sox winning it all. That being said, I love this Rays team. I've loved the last three or four Rays teams. LOVE Joe Maddon. He almost makes me like Florida. Don't get me wrong. I don't hate tha SAWKSSS. I'm just a bit tired of everything Boston. NO MORE BOSTON!! No more Red Sox! The Town, Conviction, Gone Baby Gone, the Patriots, The Departed, Ben Affleck doing Madden ads. I NEED A FAWWWWWWWWKIINNNNN BREAK!!!
"If you and your undershirt will walk two paces backwards, I could enter this dwelling."
Oh yea. Forgot about Edge of Darkness, The Fighter, and Danny fawwwwwwkkkinnnn Woodhead!!!! I feel like I have had a Fenway Frank shoved up my giggy for the last ten years.
"I race cars, play tennis, and fondle women, BUT! I have weekends off, and I am my own boss."
Theo Epstein's bright idea was to punch in Erik Betard. BRILLIANT? No. Can Jon Lester be everywhere at once? Josh Beckett is hurty. The BLOWN RANGER! John Lackey is awful. This staff is not quite in dire straits but…
"Ladies and gentlemen… I'm sorry… As you probably have surmised by now… there will be no wedding. The bride… has had second thoughts… and has decided not to marry me… Most of you know me… Can you blame her?"
Carl Crawford has been my personal joy killer. One of my favorite players of the last seven years, he hasn't quite been worth the money. Hitting third in this lineup has been a problem. He's a leadoff hitter!
"Isn't this fun? Isn't fun the best thing to have? Don't you wish you were me? I know I do."
The rise of Jacoby Ellsbury has been nothing short of TRANSCENDENT — an absolute bright spot. And I couldn't be happier for the kid who has struggled through injuries. He or Curtis Granderson would be fine choices for MVP. (I'm sorry, Verlander.)
And now, one last fleeting thought for my beloved Cubs. Both Sox teams have won championships and so have the current champ Giants. My thoughts on this?
Gloria: My mother died when I was six.
Arthur: [bangs his fist on the table] Son of a bitch! Don't they know what they do to kids?
Gloria: My father raped me when I was twelve.
Arthur: So, you had six relatively good years? I'm sorry. Listen, my father screwed me, too.

New Year, Same sCrUBS
Some of the names may have changed, but the bad contracts continue to pile up. The Chicago Cubs off-season moves have made the Cardinals a much better team than the Cardinals could have made themselves; and the Cards haven't done… well, anything really.
But watching the Cubs destroy themselves is nothing new.
And when trying to reassert my anti-Cubs passion during the long winter, I got an early charge from this recent Marlon Byrd signing. Huzzah! Hey, Chicago, whadya say? The Cubs are gonna overpay for a centerfielder today!
And a right fielder (Fukudome)…and a left fielder (Soriano)…
Didn't y'all learn anything about immediately signing a guy from Texas coming off a career year? Nah. Nevermind.
The Prince of New York paints a nice, self-destructive picture of the Cubs organization hinged on that Byrd deal; meanwhile, I'm beginning to believe Jim Hendry is employing the James Cameron school of thought by throwing a ton of money at something that is fundamentally underdeveloped, hoping it will be a hit (or be able to hit… a breaking ball, in particular, if you're Alfonso Soriano).
The difference is: James Cameron threw a lot of money at some stuff that actually looks cool even if the story is sorta lacking. I mean, I didn't love Avatar, but I was certainly entertained by it. One can't say the same for what lines up to be another epic bust of a season for the sCrUBBIE dubbies.
It's 2010.
And Jesus hates them.
Don't hate me, 'cuz I'm right.
Like Water on 'Staches
Although I hate to be the bucket of cold water on the porn 'stache discussion that has been heating up our personal interweb for the past day, it felt necessary that I write a small tribute to the most recent passing amongst our ongoing rash of celebrity deaths. In fact, you could say that there might not even be a Red State Blue State without the contributions of this person because many of the decisions he made led directly to the epic divide that has come to define our country.
I consider it fair to say that the Vietnam conflict was a watershed event in US history and the domestic response to it created a fault line that still divides the red from the blue states. Each presidential election since that time has been a refighting of the battle and even much of the argument about Iraq recycled the same terminology used in discussions of Vietnam. And no one was more instrumental in creating those discussions, arguing those arguments and fighting those battles than Robert McNamara.
There's no reason to go all that in depth because if you really want to get an idea of the man, there's no better place to go than Errol Morris' 2003 documentary, The Fog of War, where you can hear McNamara describe what happened in his own words. Nearing ninety at that point, McNamara's lucidity and razor-sharp reasoning are almost stupefying. Love him or hate him, you have to admit that he ain't no dummy.
So, despite the ambivalent feelings Mr. McNamara may inspire and despite his troubled legacy, we still salute him. He is at least as responsible for RSBS as Al Gore is for the internet.
The Dog Days of June
June means two things: the heart of the blockbuster season in the nation's movie theaters and interleague play in baseball. The big studios unleash their franchise players on a ravenous public while the American and National Leagues battle for supremacy. But, despite obvious cosmetic differences, the two things are not all that different.
By the time interleague play ends and the All-Star break rolls around, a lot of teams have already fallen out of contention. Does anyone really think that Cleveland is going to make a serious run at the pennant or that the Nationals are suddenly going to put it together and ride Stephen Strasburg into the World Series? Maybe they can play spoiler towards the end of the season but after you've passed interleague play, there's not really much reason to watch them.
It's kind of like the big blockbuster movies. Transformers II might not have much of a plot. Or a script. Or real acting. But it sure looks good on the big screen. Once it's time has passed in the local cineplex, though, is there really any point to watching it? It's not going to hang around for long. It's there to make some money and get out.
And really that's where we see the greatest similarity between the two. The money. Interleague play is a huge revenue generator for Major League Baseball. Mets and Yankees. Cubs and White Sox. Kansas City and…..well, maybe not KC. But there's no doubt that MLB and the clubs are raking in the dough as a result of these matchups.
Just like the movie studios absolutely rake in the dough with their summer blockbusters. Sure, it costs a lot of money to make a new Spiderman movie but when it makes back twice as much as was spent, you can bet your *** they're going to keep going back to the well on that one.
However, there's one aspect of this whole thing that gives me some hope. Despite all the focus on the fanfare and hoopla surrounding the big releases and the marquee matchups, there are little things that slip through the cracks but go on to make all the difference. It can be a "My Big, Fat, Greek Wedding" that maneuvers around between the big boys and not only plays for awhile but also manages to make a lot of money and happily surprise people. Or it can be a so-so series that ends up having a much bigger impact later in the season. Do you really think that if the Yankees were to miss the playoffs by a game or two they won't look back at that series with the Nationals and wonder what went wrong?
I guess that's just one more reason why I love both baseball and movies. No matter how cynical I might become or how much I agonize over the state of the game or the state of the industry, there are always the little things that keep me coming back. Especially when it involves the Tigers.
The Filibuster
The rumor mill abounds with talk of Brad Pitt and Demetri Martin
starring in the upcoming Steven Soderbergh film adaptation of Michael
Lewis' Moneyball. Movie buff and baseball lover that you are, does this project even have a realistic chance of being good?
Every year movie studios sink millions of dollars into adaptations of books that received either critical or commercial acclaim. This year alone we've already seen Watchmen hit the big screen and Dan Brown's prequel to The DaVinci Code, Angels and Demons, comes out in the next couple weeks. However, the one thing that most of these adaptations have in common is a plot, some sort of narrative device to push the story forward.
I enjoyed reading Moneyball. Michael Lewis, although I may not always agree with him, has a Malcolm Gladwell-ish quality about him in that he is able to present a quantitative side of a game that often goes unnoticed. But I have no idea how you turn that into a movie. It's like Fast Food Nation. It's an interesting book. It has interesting ideas. But a movie? No.
Now, the wild card here is the artistic team. I do love me some Brad Pitt and I find Demetri Martin amusing in small doses. Soderbergh obviously has legitimate directing bona fides. But how do you turn a book like Moneyball into a movie? I suppose you could have David Mamet rewrite the script and turn it into some profanity-laden, baseball-centric version of Glengarry Glen Ross but I don't see that happening.
No, most likely they'll strip all the baseball egg-head information from the story and make it into a movie about the unlikely but ultimately successful partnership between a former jock and an up and coming nerd. Throw in a little Brokeback for good measure and maybe they strike gold. But I doubt it. Let's just say that this project is a little more Shelley Levene than it is Ricky Roma.

Title | Acquisition of Geminate Consonants by English Speaking Learners of Japanese |
Author | Tsurutani, Chiharu |
Journal Name | Review of Asian an Pacific Studies |
Year Published | 2007 |
Place of publication | Tokyo |
Publisher | Center for Asian and Pacific Studies, Seikei University |
Abstract | This paper discusses the nature of geminate consonants in Japanese and problems second language learners of Japanese have in the acquisition of geminate consonants. In the experiments on English speakers' production of geminate consonants, insertion errors of geminate consonants were observed more frequently than omission errors. It was found that durational errors were caused by the prosodic interference from English accentuation, and that the degree of germination was reflected in the relative duration of a geminate consonant to the preceding vowel (RDV). Based on the findings, some pedagogical suggestions were offered to second language learners and teachers. |

Title: | A Logical Study of Strategies in Games [HBNI Th 15] |
Author: |
Advisor: | Ramanujam, R. |
Degree: | Ph.D |
Main Subjects: |
Institution: | HBNI |
Year: | 2010 |
Pages: | 149p. |
Abstract: | The Main theme of this thesis is reasoning about strategies in games in logical framework. Logical analyses of games typically consider players' strategies as atomic objects and the reasoning is about existence of strategies themselves. This works well with the underlying assumption that players are rational and possess unbounded computational ability. However, in many practical situations players have limited computational resources. Thus a prescriptive theory which provides advice to players needs to view strategies as relations constraining players moves rather than view them as complete functions. The central idea is to formulate the notion of composite strategies which are constructed in a structural manner and show how explicit reasoning of strategies can be achieved. The first part of the thesis looks at a logical analysis of strategies. The notion of structurally specified strategies in the framework of unbounded duration games on graphs is defined. This enables to reason about how a player's strategy may depend on assumptions about the opponent's strategy. Such specifications give rise to partially specified bounded memory strategies. A simple modal logic is considered to reason about the structured strategies. A complete axiomatization of this logic and show that the truth checking problem of the logic is decidable. Then structurally specified strategies are viewed for adaptations to the case where the game itself has compositional structure. It is suggested that, rather than performing strategic reasoning on the composite game one needs to compose game-strategy pairs. The advantage of imposing structure not merely on games or on strategies, but on game-strategy pairs, is that one can speak of a composite game g followed by g' whereby if the opponent played a strategy "Pie" in g, the player responds with sigma in g' to ensure a certain outcome. In the presence of iteration, a player has significant ability to strategize by taking into account the explicit structure of games. A propositional dynamic logic is considered whose programs are regular expressions over such game-strategy pairs and present a complete axiomatization of the logic. It is also shown that the satisfiability problem of the logic is decidable. An algorithmic analysis of games is considered in the second part of the thesis. "Evaluation Automata" is proposed as a convenient finite state model to present the preference orderings of players in infinite games. The classical solution concept of Nash equilibrium is considered in terms of functional strategies and shown that an equilibrium profile always exists in infinite duration games on finite arenas where the preference orderings of players are specified in terms of evaluation automata. It is also shown that the best response verification question is decidable with respect to strategy specifications and that synthesizing a best response strategy is possible. All the above mentioned analyses are carried out for games of perfect information. Finally multi-player games of imperfect information is investigated. As per the results of Peterson and Reif(1979), The verification question in general asks, whether a subset of players have a distributed winning strategy is undecidable in these games. The crucial element which yields undecidability is the fact that players are not allowed to communicate with each other. A framework is proposed to model games of imperfect information where communication is explicitly represented. A player's information partition is generated in a structural manner rather than being presented as part of the game formalism. It is shown that the subclass of games where communication is restricted to public announcements the verification question is decidable. Also the non-zero sum version is analysed where players have preference orderings over outcomes. It is shown that the best response computation can be performed and that one can verify whether a strategy profile constitutes an equilibrium can be carried out. |

I had a strange problem using Nav on the way to work this morning. Whenever the text-to-speech voice was supposed to chime in, instead there was just a "ding" sound instead. No voice whatsoever. Anyone know what the issue is here? I rebooted and also double-checked my text-to-speech settings and everything is set the way it should be. It was working fine a couple days ago. Running GPA15.
You may need to download the text to speech engine. I'm noticing that some of these roms don't include it. It should prompt you to download it when you hit navigate from google maps. If not just go to the market and search for TTS engine or something like that. Sent from my Droid using DroidForums
I have both Pico TTS and eSpeak TTS on my phone. This was working just yesterday. Not sure what happened?

OT: Who's Your City?
For those of you in the "I can work anywhere" camp, here's Richard
Florida's counterargument:
NEWSWEEK: The conventional wisdom is that, with technologies that
allow us to work from anywhere, place is mattering less and less. Why
is that not the case, and how are we getting it wrong?
FLORIDA: What I realized after studying this for a couple of decades
is that no one's ever really given advice about how important the
place you choose to live is. We now know that place is really
important. It's part of a triangle of career, family, and the place
you live. You know, people said the same thing about trade and
technology making place less important when the telegraph was
invented. But what we found in our research is that 40 million
Americas move each year, and 15 million make really significant moves
50 to 100 miles out of the county they live in. That's a lot. And
young people with high levels of education are the most likely to
move. I call this the "brain migration" or the "means migration." In
the past, mostly every city had the same profile of people: some
college graduates, some graduate school graduates, some high school
graduates, some high school dropouts. But now more and more highly
educated people are moving to a smaller number of cities.
What does that mean for a given city?
In a place like San Francisco or Washington, D.C., about 50 percent of
the total population in those regions is composed of people with a
college degree or more. A place like Detroit might have 10 or 12
percent. And it's not just educational profile. What we're also seeing
is a migration of people with a certain personality type. They want to
have a new thrill, experience new things, and be in an interesting
neighborhood. They're also the kind of people most likely to create
new innovations, whether that's in music or film or high technology.
Those people are seeking out a certain number of places, like greater
New York, greater Washington, greater Boston, San Francisco, Los
Angeles. So from a technology point of view, there's a link between
where people migrate and the psychology of those people, and where
people innovate and create new ventures.
Sounds like this is all due to those very same technological
innovations—teleconferencing, Internet access, etc.—that led people to
the "world is flat" idea that you're refuting.
Technology makes the world smaller, but it also makes the world
spikier. I'm not arguing against Thomas Friedman, but saying there's
this additional force. I think he and others are aware of it, but I
think people have glossed over it. Economic activity is not only
becoming more concentrated but also more specialized. New York is
great in fashion design and investment banking. San Francisco's great
in software. L.A.'s great in entertainment technology. And Nashville
is the epicenter of music production. So if you want to pursue a given
career, it's not just that you can make it in any big city, because
now there is a smaller number of big cities that will be the key
places for you.

American Airlines parent company said Friday the personal information of about 79,000 retirees, former and current employees has been compromised after a hard drive was stolen from its Fort Worth headquarters.
No customer data was affected. The data was held by the company's pension department.
The drive contained images of microfilm files, which included names, addresses, dates of birth, Social Security numbers and a "limited amount" of bank account information. Some health insurance information may have also been included -- mostly enrollment forms, but also details about coverage, treatment, and other administrative information.
The data spans a period from 1960 to 1995.
AMR also believes some of the employee files also contained information on beneficiaries, dependents and other employees from 1960 to 1995.
The company has sent letters to the people that were impacted by the breach. AMR is offering one year of free credit monitoring for those affected.
It has already stepped up protective measures at its headquarters, including increasing security and testing the vulnerability of its computers.
AMR said it's still investigating the incident.

In Visual Studio 2010 Essential Training, author Walt Ritscher demonstrates how to use Visual Studio 2010 Professional to develop full-featured applications targeting a variety of platforms. Starting with an overview of the integrated developer environment, the course covers working with code editors, navigating and formatting code, and deploying applications. Also included are tutorials on running performance and load tests, and debugging code. Exercise files accompany the course.
RSS is a very popular format. In this movie, I want to show you how to bind your application to an RSS feed. I'm inside Internet Explorer, and I have my blog opened. It's blog.wpfwonderland.com. If I go to the end of my URL, and I type in the word "feed" and press Enter, I get the RSS feed view of the data, but it's still not the raw XML data that's coming from my server. What I should do to get the raw feed is right-click and then choose View Source.
I've already done that. I've put the file inside our project, inside Visual Studio. So let's switch to Visual Studio. Here is the feed file I'm talking about, BlogExampleFeed.xml. I'll double-click on it to load it into Visual Studio. Then I'm going to make my font a little bit smaller by using the mouse wheel and the Ctrl key. If I would like to bind part of my UI to this data, I need to figure out how to get down to this XML element. You can see that the description is a child of channel, and channel is a child of RSS.
There is a mechanism called XPath built into XML that lets me drill into this data using these tags. So that's what I'm going to use. I'm also going to use something called an XMLDataProvider, which comes from WPF. Let me switch to my main UI for one minute by double-clicking on MainWindow.xaml. Then click on the Your Blog tab. Then I'll click on this text block that's right here in the UI. Let's see what's happening here on line 82. The text for this TextBlock is going to come from a data source.
In WPF, the binding keyword is how we tell the WPF engine to get the data from this title element and put it in here on the Text property of the TextBlock. The curly braces are also part of the syntax for WPF and Silverlight. Notice that this TextBlock is bound to the description. Notice some dot dot stuff going on here, because I'm going to start in my data by looking at the individual items. These are the individual blog posts here. So I'm going to start my XPath by starting here. Then I'm going to go up a level to get to the description.
I need to write some code to set up this data binding. So I'm going to switch over to my MainWindow.xaml.cs file. Then I'm going to scroll down until I find this section down here where it says private void Window_Loaded. First, I need to instantiate the XMLDataProvider. I'm doing it outside of the Window_ Loaded event, so I can use it elsewhere in my code. Then after the move current to first bits of code, I'm going to tell that provider where to find my blog.
So here I've typed in my feed location. Next, I'm going to tell the provider where to start looking inside that document, using an XPath query. So we start with the root element, RSS. Then we go to channel, and then it's item. That's where I want to start looking. I can go up and down from that location in my bindings. Then lastly, I need to tell WPF to create a DataContext. So I'm going to go to the tab where all my RSS controls live, called tab4.
I'm going to set the DataContext equal to my provider. Now what this says is any WPF element that is inside this tab has access to the data coming from this XMLDataProvider. Then I'm going to press F5 to run the application. Save my changes. Then I'm going to click on the Your Blog tab, and I was successful. I'm pulling the data from my blog, loading it into this list box. When I click on an item in the list box, it's loading the actual blog article in over in this area.
I'm also pulling information about the blog name and the blog description and putting in these text blocks. I showed you how that was happening in the WPF.xaml earlier. There is one more thing I would like to make this application do. I'd like to go to the search feeds, and when you type in a new search, I'd like to go get the RSS from the Bing site and pass that in as the source for this page. It's relatively easy to do. I just need to go up to this area where I'm downloading the string from Bing.
I'm going to say provider.Source. I'm going to change from my blog source to the new source. I think that code should do it. Debug > Start Debugging, or F5. I will come over here and type in my new search "Databinding", click on the Get RSS button, and then I'm going to on the Your Blog tab, and see if I've pulled the data from Bing. So these are the top ten sites from the RSS feed that have the word "databinding" in them.
There are plenty of details I'm leaving out about databinding in this overview. You'll find more material about binding elsewhere in this course. At this point, our application is nearly complete. We just need to determine how to deploy it to the end user's computer.

Nelly and Paul Wall said it best: "Rob the jewelry store and tell 'em make me a grill. Add da whole top diamond and the bottom row's gold." While the popular rap song "Grillz" was released in 2007, the decadent metal mouthpieces have been making a comeback of late. Despite their high cost—rapper Paul Wall now has a custom grills company, whose diamond-encrusted grills can cost nearly $10,000—celebrities have been jumping on the grills bandwagon. From Rihanna to Miley Cyrus, and yes, even Madonna, a look at girls who can seriously rock a set of grills.

Kudos to Nic for putting this project up, and risking everyone's comments about fuses. I woulda made the comment too if it weren't for all the others. Additionally you crushed the price of the kits for this exact thing you find on ebay.
The SerLCD firmware doesn't appear to permit creating custom characters, does it? Unless I've missed something?
Welcome to another episode of Wacky Races! Professor Pat Pending pulls in the lead with his Convert-a-car followed by Penelope Pitstop. Dick Dastardly is up to his usual hijinks altering the track in the next lane…
I'm ready to go biking, I got my leathers.
Sparkfun's breathalyzer access control widget still needs a bit of work…
I'm also interested in using this with my own PWM control, rather than the Pots. Anyone done this?
SHOW! I'm interested in buying a few of these, but the specs are somewhat vague… Such as peak current
We need one of these for the Nokia Colour SMD connector
…just a thought
If anyone is confused by the layout of the wiznet website, and where the Device terminal program is; I found it.
The Device Terminal Program is located here:
www.wiznet.co.kr/UpLoad_Files/ReferenceFiles/Device Terminal.exe
I was able to finally connect to my device using the Configuration Tool. For those of you with this problem, try connecting the unit directly to your computer's Ethernet Port, and restart the computer if necessary. Once found, change the Wiznet parameters so that you can connect to it however you see fit.
My next problem is that I cannot receive any data from the unit via Serial in both TCP and UDP in and out of debug mode. The operations are as follows:
UDP-> Serial (nothing on serial terminal)
Serial-> UDP (characters aren't perfect and the characters are echoed via serial)
TCP Client Mode:
Unit Connects to PC TCP server
Serial-> TCP (characters aren't perfect and the characters are echoed via serial)
TCP Server Mode:
Can Connect to Unit
Serial -> TCP characters aren't perfect and the characters are echoed via serial)
TCP -> Serial (nothing on serial terminal)
*Characters aren't perfect:
p = ~ or |
h = ? or |
Any one have any insight? Much appreciated

Creating Films for Computers: A Pragmatic Approach
I describe myself as a web-friendly director. I studied filmaking and self-taught myself programming. In the last years, I had the chance to do traditional films (INNI and MIROIR NOIR), tons of websites and projects that were in the middle of the two worlds. I want to share with you my experience in doing those films that take advantage of the digital platform.

Confrontation at man's house ensues after his car is rammed on I-135
A man fired a gun into the ground outside his house Friday evening to scare away a group of people who rammed his car on the Canal Route then followed him home and assaulted him, police say.
The man, 22, received minor injuries in the incident, police Sgt. Ron Hunt said Saturday. The man said he was driving on I-135 about 6:15 p.m. Friday when a 1990s red four-door Ford was driving erratically, rammed the rear of his vehicle and almost ran him off the road, Hunt said. When the man headed home to the 4200 block of East Whitney, southwest of Pawnee and Oliver, the car followed him, he said.
Three men and three women then got out of the car, there was a confrontation, and the man was assaulted, Hunt said the man reported. So he went into the house and brought out a firearm, which he fired into the ground, Hunt said. The three men started to leave, but the three women remained, taunting the man to shoot them, Hunt said the man reported. The man then fired the gun into the ground a second time, and the women left, Hunt said.
The man's injuries weren't serious, and he apparently did not know the suspects, Hunt said.

Rider's idea was to combine a dsRNA protein that attaches to cells with another protein that causes cells to die. That means that when DRACO hooks up with the suspect dsRNA, it kickstarts a process whereby the infected cells begin to kill themselves.
On the other hand, if the RNA the drug has targeted is not in the cell (ie, a healthy, uninfected cell) then DRACO leaves that cell alone, Rider explained.
To see if this approach would work, the MIT team tested out the drug on both human and animal cells made in the lab. In addition, they tested their concept in mice infected with influenza. Mice treated with DRACO were cured of the flu, without any adverse effects, Rider said.
"So far, we have not found any side effects in cells or in mice," Rider said. "The mice appeared normal all the time they were alive, and their organs appeared normal when they were examined subsequently," he said.
In addition, he said that they also demonstrated that DRACO is nontoxic in 11 different cell types representing different species including humans, monkeys and mice, and in organ types such as the heart, lung, liver and kidney.
Rider believes that DRACO has the potential to "revolutionize" the treatment and prevention of virtually all viral diseases, including everything from the common cold to Ebola. "Because the antiviral activity of DRACO is so broad-spectrum, we hope that it will even be useful against outbreaks of previously unknown viruses, such as the 2003 SARS outbreak."
"We are currently testing additional viruses in mice and beginning to get promising results with those, too," he added.
Still, don't look for DRACO in your medicine cabinet anytime soon.
"We are hoping to license this technology to a pharmaceutical company that can carry it through larger animal trials and human clinical trials. Realistically, it will probably be at least a decade before you can buy DRACO at the drug store." Rid

Welcome to Rancho Ponte Vineyard
Rancho Ponte is a small-production, family-run winery nestled on 20 acres and located just 5 miles east of Fredericksburg. The Texas Pontes continue a five generation legacy of winemaking which started in northern Italy. We moved here from California, bringing many years of experience in the wine industry to our new venture in the Texas Hill country. Our wines have earned a passionate word-of-mouth following. Rancho Ponte is known for its beautiful tasting room and friendly atmosphere.
We invite you to visit us, have a glass of wine, relax on our shaded porch, and enjoy yourself with friends and family!
