Atmel Introduces Industry's First ARM Cortex-M3 Flash MCU With On-Chip High Speed USB Device-and-Transceiver
SAM3U is Code Portable from Atmel's Established ARM7- and ARM9-based MCU Families
To fully exploit the SAM3U's high speed communications peripherals, the device is built around a high data-bandwidth architecture with a 5-layer bus matrix, 23 DMA channels and distributed on-chip memory including up to 52k Bytes of SRAM split in three blocks and up to 256k Bytes of Flash in two banks. The dual bank Flash offers in-application programming (IAP) where one memory bank is written with a new version of the firmware while the processor executes from the other bank. A programmable boot feature enables switching between the two Flash banks at the next MCU reboot.
Additional features include an 8-channel each 10- and 12-bit ADC, the latter with integrated Programmable Gain Amplifier (PGA), differential and single ended input to remove external OpAmps and a one Msps sample rate, 4 UARTs, 5 SPI, 2 I2C, I2S, timers, PWM, 128-bit unique ID, and power and reset management. The External Bus Interface offers the choice between 8- and 16-bit data bus widths for extended memory or connection to external FPGAs and ASSPs. The SAM3U's supply voltage ranges from 1.62V to 3.6V, a feature not commonly found on Cortex-M3-based MCUs.
Power optimization – The SAM3U incorporates a sophisticated power management regime that minimizes power consumption under all conditions of use. The device can be put in Backup mode with the core and peripherals powered down, in which power consumption is only 2.5 uA. Wake-up from backup mode can be triggered by multiple sources and is accelerated via a high speed on-chip RC Oscillator reducing the average power consumption critical for battery operated systems.
Code portability between SAM7 and SAM3 MCUs - The Cortex-M3 core has a completely new instruction set architecture, different from previous ARM cores. Migrating legacy ARM7 code to the Cortex-M3 requires a complete re-write of the assembler code. Atmel has taken steps to ensure maximum code portability between its ARM7-, ARM9- and Cortex-M3-based microcontrollers. Its SAM7, SAM9 and Cortex-M3-based SAM3 MCUs have identical hardware abstraction layers and a unified programming model, as well as common peripherals that provide near-recompile-and-go code portability between devices.
Comprehensive support eco-system - Atmel's SAM3U flash MCU is supported by a rapidly growing number of development tools, real-time operating systems (RTOS), middleware products and technical support services from industry-leading third parties that include IAR(R), Keil(R), Micrium(R), and Segger(R). Atmel provides a software package with register descriptions and device drivers for all peripherals, along with project examples that ease the use of the microcontroller. The SAM3U Evaluation Kit is available for benchmarking and a quick start in application development.
Availability and Pricing - The AT91SAM3U is available in Flash memory densities of 64k, 128k and 256k Bytes and ships in 100 and 144 pin 0.5mm pitch QFP and 0.8 mm pitch BGA packages. Samples are available now. Production volumes will be available in 4Q09, with prices starting at

Canadian Cyber Attack Did Not Affect Federal Budget Timing
A top cabinet minister said on Thursday that a cyber attack on key Canadian economic ministries last month was serious, but will not affect the timing of next month's federal budget.
The Canadian Broadcasting Corp. said hackers using China-based servers had broken into computer systems at the Finance Department and Treasury Board.
The Finance Department is preparing the federal budget, which will be delivered sometime next month.
"I wouldn't say it's the most aggressive (attack) but it was a significant one, significant that they were going after financial records … We were able to shut things down and protect information," Treasury Board Minister Stockwell Day told reporters.
"It slows down your internal operations for a while because we had to immediately shut down certain parts of the network … but those are all in the process of being reopened. The budget's on track and it's going to be a good budget."
CBC said the hackers gained access to an agency that advises the armed forces on science and technology.
A Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman denied there was a Chinese link to the hacking.
Canada's spy service complains regularly about what it says is industrial espionage by China and other states.
Professor Wesley Wark, a leading intelligence specialist at the University of Toronto, told Reuters that the fact the story leaked out meant authorities must be convinced there was no threat.
"Treasury Board and Finance are not the most obvious targets for a state-run espionage or disruptive effort. So that part is murky, as is often the case with cyber attacks," he told Reuters.
Canada's minority Conservative government markedly toned down its criticism of China's human rights record while trying to increase bilateral trade.
Canadian researchers said last year that a cyber-espionage group based in southwest China had stolen documents from the Indian Defense Ministry and emails from the Dalai Lama's office.
The same researchers described a systematic cyber-infiltration of the Tibetan government-in-exile, which they called GhostNet.

Scramble on the 360 is a faithful rendition of the original arcade game. If that alone doesn't get you excited, you should probably take a pass.
Better shooters are available for free on the web or for a small fee through Live Arcade. If you loved Scramble in 1981, then there might be something here worth looking at. Otherwise, you'd be much better off sticking with "Galaga" or "Geometry Wars."
While games like "Time Pilot" aged gracefully, this side-scrolling space shooter feels old and inflexible, a crusty gaming battleship dragged out of drydock. All you can do is stare and go, "Wow, that's old."

Mini Mod for World in Conflict with H-Bombs, new TAs, new units, and much, much more!
Apr 16th, 2013 0 people agree 0 people don't
Great mod, very fun to play.
Sep 1st, 2009 1 person agrees 5 people don't
Bar far the best mod for World in Conflict that has the most interesting and large variety units and TA's that mods like the Modern Warfare mod sacrifice for "balance" which is an excuse to make a game/mod harder for the casual player to enjoy. But I say screw balance, I want a mod that makes the game more fun, and less of a serious strategy game. Nuclear weapons can annihilate entire sections of a map to even everything on it while units have long ranged and more devastating weapons accompanied by a few new units. The only reason I rate it 9/10 is because simply, I can't even play the game without reinstalling the game and only updating it to v1.010. I don't see how hard it could be to simply update it so that it can be played with the latest patch seeing that there will be no more patches in the first place.

ROCKINGHAM — A House vs. Senate stalemate over the Duke Energy coal ash spill cleanup shows deep division among Republican leaders in the N.C. General Assembly, state Rep. Ken Goodman said.
Conference committee leaders couldn't agree on last-minute changes to the coal ash cleanup bill Friday, and the chambers adjourned last week without advancing any legislation on the matter to Gov. Pat McCrory. Each chamber blamed the other for the impasse.
"The coal ash problem is a very serious problem that we know needs to be dealt with,," said Goodman, D-Richmond. "The fact that we couldn't come up with something really speaks to a lack of leadership, in my opinion."
House negotiators added a definition to the bill that would outline how cleanup priorities would be assigned to coal ash spill sites. Senate leaders balked, accusing the House of giving McCrory's administration too much oversight.
Goodman said Sen. Tom Apodaca, R-Buncombe, accused House leaders of "going rogue" and refusing to sign a conference report. House conference members responded by dropping a signed report on Apodaca's desk, Goodman said.
In the standoff over new language added to the bill, Goodman said the House blinked first.
"The House said, 'We want to do this,'" Goodman explained. "'We will even pass your version.'"
But the Senate adjourned early Friday without signing off. The House adjourned Saturday after holding the second of two votes to pass a $21 billion compromise budget, which McCrory has pledged to sign.
Lawmakers will return to Raleigh on Aug. 14 and are expected to take up the coal ash bill in November.
"It seems we're going to come back in November — after the election, conveniently — to deal with this," Goodman said.
Analysts say politics play a role in the bickering between the Senate and House, both of which have Republican supermajorities. House Speaker Thom Tillis has strengthened his ties to McCrory since mounting his bid to unseat Democratic U.S. Sen. Kay Hagan, Goodman said.
"There's just animosity between the Senate leadership and the governor, and Tillis has tried to work more with the governor because of his political situation," said Goodman. "It's just a mess."
Infighting between GOP leaders has been a recurring storyline since the short session convened in May. Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have said election-year politics made it increasingly difficult to move legislation.
"This is the worst session I've been in," said Goodman, who is running unopposed for his third House term. "It's just been ridiculous."
Goodman said Republican leaders passed a Band-Aid budget that touts teacher raises but shortchanges experienced educators, since longevity pay is folded into the salary increases.
"The budget we passed, in my opinion, is just awful," he said. "There is not enough money to sustain the budget."
Duke Energy estimated that 30,000 to 39,000 tons of coal ash spilled from containment ponds into the Dan River in February. The waste generated by coal-burning power plants, coal ash contains cancer-causing chemicals and heavy metals including arsenic and mercury.
The spill could have statewide environmental implications, and Richmond County lawmakers have repeatedly expressed concerns. Goodman supported Sen. Gene McLaurin's amendment to move the Yadkin-Pee Dee River to the top of the list for coal ash cleanup sites. That amendment, filed late last month, was not adopted.
In a Friday executive order, McCrory directed state regulators to monitor the coal ash cleanup and enforce all applicable laws. Environmental groups dismissed the order as political showboating since no new policies had been enacted.
Goodman said lawmakers owe it to the state's residents to pass a comprehensive coal ash cleanup plan. Rep. Garland Pierce, D-Scotland, agreed.
"Passing legislation to clean up after the disastrous coal ash spill in January should have been one of the first bills we sent to the governor this session," Pierce said in a statement. "I will continue to fight to ensure our drinking water is safe and that Duke Energy does not pass the cost of cleaning up North Carolina's coal ash ponds onto their consumers."

MacDowell's in downtown Leesburg finally buys its beach
After a long negotiation process, the popular bar and restaurant's owner, Gordon MacDowell, managed to convince town officials to sell the bit of land to him for $24,000.
According to Nils Schnibbe, MacDowell's business partner, the purchase won't affect customer's experience, and the restaurant will continue to function normally.
"It doesn't really change anything for us," he said. "Now we won't have to pay rent."
MacDowell has owned the property where his business sits since 1994. When the economy hit MacDowell's kitchen business hard in 2008, he decided it was time for a new direction.
"... We were looking for ways to utilize the space in the building, and a couple people suggested a way to follow my dream of owning a brewery," MacDowell said. "My partner Nils came along and said 'you should open a restaurant here, a brewery … 'So we became quite a destination because of all the beers. We had microbrewery and our own beer and pretty decent food."
They started small, gradually increasing their clientele and improving the space. Eventually, he decided to create an outdoor eating area modeled after Seacret, a restaurant he remembered going to as a child that has a sandy area where customers can sit.
"It was a little hole in the wall that kind of evolved like we are," he said. "They put an area outside and some sand and palm trees. Now it's grown. I've read that it's the most successful bar in the U.S. I thought, We could do a mini, tiny, tiny, tiny speck of a version of that."
So he got some sand and made his own beach. To make the space bigger, he extended the boundary of the beach into his own residential property.
"People said, 'you need more space, more tables, more chairs, more sand,'" MacDowell said. "So I got more sand and more tables and chairs. The whole time I'm thinking, well I'm expanding at the rate that my customers ask me too. I'm not trying to step on any toes. And I own this property so I should be able to use my own property."
According to MacDowell, the surrounding businesses noticed the crowds lining up at the restaurant's door. Last year, some of the businesses called the town saying that MacDowells was conducing business on property in a residential zone.
As the town looked into the zoning, they found that MacDowells had inadvertently been conducting business on a right of way owned by the town. They sent MacDowell a letter telling him to stop using the land, and the battle that ensued has only just wound down with the price agreement.
On top of the $24,000 he needs to pay for the land, MacDowell said the process of rezoning the property from residential to business has cost him, and he almost gave in more than once. If the rezoning is approved, the entire process of rezoning and negotiating for the property will come to a close in September.
"All the legal fees I've had to pay?" he said. "Astounding. And then tack on the $24,000 I'm going to have to find. The process has almost put me out of business … I am looking forward to getting this done. I'm very happy with the business. It does seem to keep growing. I've had very positive feedback, and I'm excited about what we can do in the future. It'd be nice to invest the money back in the business as opposed to using the money to stay alive, to feed the lawyers and the engineers."
The rezoning has been an easier process than he'd hoped for initially.
"It's been championed over there by a guy named Irish Granfield. He's a saint. He's my project manager. He's been super professional...[The process has been] handled efficiently and professionally by this particular individual and all the departments that have been in contact with him have been helpful."
Despite a long and frustrating process, MacDowell remains positive.
"Keep your chin up and keep moving forward. Keep it positive. I do love the business. It's been a lot of fun … I'm proud that I created such a destination ..."

Comments on the Oakland Raiders by the AP Pro32 panel (ranking in parentheses): OAKLAND RAIDERS (23, TIE) Dan Pompei (Chicago Tribune, 17): It will be interesting to see what Carson Palmer can do over whole season in Oakland. Rick Gosselin (Dallas Morning News, 19): Carson Palmer had offseason to learn about offense and teammates, knowing, of course, he can always hand off to Darren McFadden. A little dose of defense, and Raiders can contend for playoff spot. Bob Glauber (Newsday, 20): New GM Reggie McKenzie has brought new attitude. Let's see if it finally translates into winning season. Chris Berman (ESPN, 21): Everything is new for Silver & Black; anything is possible in this division. John Lynch (Fox Sports, 23): I believe the Raiders found winner in new head coach Dennis Allen. RB Darren McFadden's return helps, but so much rests on QB Carson Palmer's play. Is he Pro Bowler we saw early in career in Cincy or guy who threw 16 picks in 10 games as a Raider last year? R...

An accurate observation
Yesterday I was climbing all over our boat with McLube (the UK version of Sailkote), a dry lubricant for pulleys, hinges sail guides, etc. The kids were impressed and laughing about how I was spraying everything that moved (including the clutch pull knob on the engine shifter/throttle).
"I think Dad's having fun because of getting to use a spray can all over the place," my son said.
"No," my daughter said. "Dad likes boats because there's so many things to push and pull and twist."
Safe sailing
PS My Aurora is a solid 26ft Westerly Centaur
Maybe have the kids do the McLube as part of their crew duties!

Dollars would add to excitement
How can an All-Star Game be compelling? How about a few million bucks and a few players who feel it's their last chance?
Updated: February 8, 2004, 7:16 PM ETBy Jim Kelley | ESPN.com
ST. PAUL, Minn. -- There was a time when folks inside the NHL's inner-office sanctum charged with thinking about these kinds of things were asked to come up with ideas on how to make the All-Star Game better.
One of the more respected staffers had a relatively simple but effective idea.
Go to the bank and get bags and bags full of crisp bills. Make sure they have those paper bands around them that you always see when the bandits boost the bank. Pile the piles neatly in the penalty ...

I went to several craft fairs this season and noticed that many people had a lot of their stuff numbered for inventory purposes. I would like to start this sort of system with my own stuff now that i'm getting to the point i've got a lot more to track now. My question to my fellow beaders is what sort of numbering system to you use with your things if u use such a system? I read an article recently about some1 who included their materials cost within their number so that when selling they knew what kind of play they had in price when haggling with some1, I really like that idea and just wondered what other systems people had in labeling.
Thanks for the info!
yes, I have a system like that and I just spent several minutes typing with my sore hand pecking away at the keys and somehow I lost it into cyberspace, so I will retype it tomorrow. Hopefully I will feel better and not hit a wrong key only to watch it vaporize into cyberspace.
Happy Beading!!
Small-town USA.
oh i hate when that happens, and when u are sore or sick its twice as frustrating >.< I totally feel for ya.
damn, i just got one of those lost in webspace too >_>
anyway, i used to number my stuffs with alphanumeric codes. like earrings with E and then followed with 4 digits number (E-####) and so on.
but then i found it a bit difficult to find the product in my computer. so now i just name them. easier to remember for me than just unpersonalized numbers.

When I had some things at a store, they required my booth number and then an item number. I just did everything sequentially. This number was keyed in when purchased so that I could go online to see what had sold before I went there. That way I would know what to bring to restock.
Since I don't have that booth anymore, I don't number mine. But it would be very simple to do. I agree that putting the cost of the item into your number would be helpful if someone comes up at a show and asks to make a deal. You just simply have to set up your pattern and then make up the rest. For example, if all of your items are under $100, then you can say that the first two numbers are your cost, then add a few more numbers. So you have $20 in a bracelet, number is 2001. The next bracelet that you have $15 in number is 1502. If you have any pieces that are over $100 then I would make sure that all the numbers are based on the first three digits.
10001 for $100 necklace
02001 for the $20 bracelet
01502 for the bracelet
I would hate for you to have a $100 item and mistake it for $10 in the heat of the moment. Not that you would but if you have a helper, they might if they don't know your stuff really well.
If I ever did a system again, it would be something like this. That way is it simple and easy. If you added a letter for (N) for necklace, (E) for earring, etc, it would allow you to reuse numbers ( 2001E and 2001N ) so that you don't get long numbers. Also, this would allow you to track that you have 25 pairs of earrings but 75 bracelets and 10 necklaces easily. That way you can tell easier what is either selling or what you need to make more of.
Just my thoughts. I am sure that there are other ways and probably better. You just need to try to think it out ahead of time to prevent having to redo it later.
Best of Luck with it!
Have a great day!
I sold costume jewelry for about 15 years, I had to have a system. The important thing for YOUR system is to decide what you need to know most, and work a system around that. I also sold in shops, so had to have my dealer number FIRST in the line. I decided to "date" my inventory using letters A was the first year of my purchasing, B for the next, etc. On the tags that went to the shop, the next 5 numbers were the sequential ones and that was it. For my own purposes I did have some other info in the paper record I kept, which was easily converted into a database format when I had to go that way. The intervening numbers and letters were my cost of goods and a guide as to what category to put it in on my web site, and finally a description column for just that, manufacturers name, type of metal, color, etc.
As inventory aged, I could mark down so it would sell off. If a dealer asked for a discount, I could look at my records and make a good decision on how much.
As a seller, even though I had a huge inventory and worked a full time job in addition to doing shows, and having stuff in a shop, I never seemed to lose track of what my little darlings cost me. With my beading, there is so much less in my inventory that I'd be in favor of a simple inventory system, date, cost, and a sequential number. Maybe put the sequential first, then the letter for the date, then a disguised cost number. Just my opinion, but you'll figure out quickly what you need to know most.
Donna in WestOR
Thanks for the ideas guys!
I like the N, E, B for necklace, earrings, bracelet. When just looking at control numbers you can see what you have the most of.
I like the year being represented by a letter so that it cuts down on the amount of numbers you use, id love to keep it to 4 numbers max and that helps.
I wanted to see what other people did or what kinds of ideas ppl had so that i could develop a system that I won't want to change later :)
All great ideas, I never thought about numbering everything but I can see where it would be necessary or useful. What I'm thinking for myself is something like this:
115S04 (a $115 Set number 4) [not that I have anything that expensive in stock right now]

My thought is that the price wouldn't get confused with the actual stock number so you can use a 3-digit system if you had to because you'd have the item type designation separating the 2 number sets (S, E, B, N). Does it make sense? Would this work?
i'd give at least 3 digits for numbering.. i'm sure at some point you'd reach 100 necklace creations! maybe 4 eaven if you're really productive :)
Dawn, Yes, it makes sense, all of it; did you forget about Rings and Brooches? With B for bracelet you'd need something else for brooches. [P for "Pins"?] Would you consider a Cuff as being a bracelet? Or would you list it as "C"? Then, there are all sorts of Miscellaneous items... ;-)

i'd give at least 3 digits for numbering.. i'm sure at some point you'd reach 100 necklace creations! maybe 4 eaven if you're really productive :)
You're right, Kay, unless I start selling, and stop creating, I will end up with well over 100 items in stock!
EGADS, if that happens then I'll have to change my philosophy about a person never having too much jewelry!
Gosh, Stan, I didn't even think about the rings and brooches -- I have about 3 drawers of my jewelry chest full of them, although they're all either inherited from my Grandma or things I bought for myself, none are hand-crafted. However, I did see a ring on Sue's site that I fell in love with and I'm considering trying to make something similar (Thank you, Sue!!).
You're right, I should consider a 2-letter designation to include maybe BL for bracelet, AL for anklet and BR for brooch. And I think I would list a cuff as C. Actually a 3-letter system might work better for me because I'm trying to get into the magnetic jewelry side too, but I want to keep that inventory separate from the others. So MBL would be magnetic bracelet, MAL would be magnetic anklet. Let's see, for miscellaneous....KC for keychain, CF for cell phone fob...can I make it up as I go along, like I do with almost everything else I do? LOL
And, you remind me and unknowingly hold me accountable for my commitment to try to learn new techniques this year, to broaden my scope from just simple stringing. I want to learn off-loom weaving and start incorporating some chains into my designs. And although I LOVE the look of wireworking, I think I'll put that off to next year.
Does anyone else have a problem with too many beading techniques to learn, too LITTLE time? Or is it just me?
Dawn - I agree! I see something wonderful that someone posts a picture of and think "I want to do that!"...which of course means a trip to the LBS! ( Darn). So off I go and get the supplies. Then...I get impatient, frustrated, aggreviated, mad, then pi***d off. And that is the end of it. I try and try and try and just don't get some of it.
Anyway...adding chain for me got easier after I got comfortable with making wire loops myself. Great video on www.beaducation.com . So you might check out their free video tutorials if you haven't. FMG has some too and Jewelry Lessons.
Once I got the loops down, it was so much easier. So if you decide to do that, then make that your one plan for the year. That way maybe you will stay focus ( for me I don't think that is possible...)
Does anyone else have a problem with too many beading techniques to learn, too LITTLE time? Or is it just me?
No, it's "just" 'too little time'!
I'm thinking to help with numbers getting too high, somehow get the year in the code so that each year u start at 01 again. But as one person was saying, years are represented by letters to keep from having too many numbers in the sequence, but rather than saying my 1st yr beading is A, i will designate a number for each letter of the alphabet. A=1, B=2, C=3. So 2008 is H. So far i like this idea so years can always be represented by a single letter vs 2 numbers, making the code that much longer.
The 5th necklace made in 2008 whose materials cost $10 would look like N05H10.
The numbers are broken up for easier reading, i identify the product, how much it cost to make, and its individual number. I can't even imagine making more than 99 pieces of any one thing in any 1 year so this should work. Doing fewer types of products helps the identifying label, but good point on what about pieces beyond the most basic. I don't do cuffs and if i did they would still be a B for bracelet i think. I don't usually use the word brooch, i use lapel pin and just plain pin, so they would be a P for me. Others might be C for cell phone charm, Z for zipper pull, K for keychain, O for christmas ornament (tho so far i've not kept track of those, too numerous and too alike one another, but later i plan to try more complex bead weaving techniques so they would be included then) I can't think of having made anything more than that for extras, maybe in the future, like M for magnet. I do like some1's idea of 2 letter designation labels tho, but i think i can make due with one myself. 2 letters help you remember what it is more because of it being a step closer to spelling the word out, and helps so you don't confuse it with the single letter year code as well. Maybe i will use 2 letters now that i think on it more, we shall see later :)
I'm still thinking on the system and getting more ideas from all of you. I really don't want to start a system until im really happy with it so i won't have to change it later when i've decided it don't work :P

What's hot, and what's not, in the workplace
A waitress at Guti'z Bakery displays traditional Ecuadorian food in East Haven, Conn. The latest trends in the labor market suggest you're better off looking for job that produces a service, not a physical product.
Kai Ryssdal: How about a translation of the actual Bureau of Labor Statistics report? How're you supposed to know what jobs are hot, and what jobs are not?
Marketplace's Sally Herships has that.
Sally Herships: Temp workers of America: I have some good news -- or depending on your ambition -- bad news for you. Temp jobs right now: hot. If you want to see the numbers for yourself, they're in the jobs report.
Linda Barrington: The industry category is employment services and within that there's a sub category which is temporary help services. Those are your temp agencies.
Linda Barrington is director of the Institute for Compensation Studies at Cornell. There were 21,000 new temp workers this month. Also hot, with 26,000 new jobs: accommodation and food services.
Barrington: Big industry. But adding more in food services and drinking places than in accommodation.
So lots of gigs for bartenders and waitresses. How 'bout – do you wanna get a job as a bus driver?
Barrington: You do not. So transit and ground passenger transportation lost 11,000 jobs.
Equally not hot: jobs in local government. Factory work, lukewarm -- but better if you're making things out of metal. Hot: Jobs for nurses and other hands on health workers.
But bottom line, providing services is hot. Making things -- not as hot.
In New York, I'm Sally Herships for Marketplace.

The Santa Clarita City Council welcomed U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer to the dedication of a Solar Canopy at the Transit Maintenance Facility.
Mayor Marsha McLean called this event an important milestone and thanked Boxer for visiting even though she has 36 million other constituents. Boxer corrected McLean saying she actually has 38 million constituents, which perhaps makes the honor even greater.
McLean proudly advocated the benefits of the canopy which will generate 97% of all electricity need to power the facility.
"As a result, this site will produce almost 1 million kilowatt hours per year, saving the city approximately $137,080 a year in electricity bills," McLean said.
Don't miss a thing. Get breaking news alerts delivered right to your inbox.
Officials say the canopy clean energy project received 4.6 million dollars through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act's Transit Investments for Greenhouse Gas and Energy Reduction Grant Program.
Santa Clarita was selected as one of 43 agencies to obtain funds through this grant program receiving the fifth largest award nationwide. The city also applied for a reimbursement from Southern California Edison's California Solar Incentive Program for a photovoltaic system. Edison approved the city's application resulting in $930,000 reimbursement over the next five years.
Boxer, the Chair of the US Senate on the Environment and Public Works, said we're blessed in California because we have lots of sun and have very progressive people in office who understand that it makes "total sense" to harness that sun for the good of the people.
Boxer said saving the environment and saving money is one of those rare issues that is not partisan.
"It's just a smart thing to do,' Boxer said.

The hardest part was finding the right "Tine Pivot Clip," as several parts have the same name.I wish I'd spent more time looking at the site's exploded parts diagram to pinpoint the broken part's exact location; I ordered the wrong ones at first, but eventually ordered the correct part. (I saved the others for when the other "tine pivot clips" break.)Once I found the right part, it pushed on fairly easily with my fingers. (It might have broken had I used pliers.)All in all, my orders still cost much less than a visit from the appliance repair company.

My 690R was my first dirt bike and I found it was just fine with some good handguards. I put on Cycra Pro-Bends and different mirrors and rode it...18,000 miles the first year and a half. The factory plastic skid plate was just fine for the few times I actually hit something. If you start tackling harder stuff, you may want radiator guards. Other than that, I had no issues with mine...its was a great bike. I just sold it this summer in favor of picking up something smaller (500exc?) because I got tired of picking up something bigger (690R)!
I also like the body armor comment. Falling over will happen and you want to be the least damaged as you can be...you'll need your health for heaving the big girl up.
Man, thinking about it...it was a really frickin' awesome bike. I miss it.

On this day in 1913, the National Alliance of Postal Employees, an organization formed to protect the rights and privileges of African Americans in the postal service, was projected at a Houston meeting attended by a number of black postal workers in the city, including Henderson native James S. Rutledge. From this meeting grew the Progressive Postal League, which led to the Chattanooga convention that founded the National Alliance of Postal Employees.
On this date in 1942, construction began on a German prisoner of war camp some twelve miles northeast of Huntsville in northeastern Walker County. This construction also marked the origins of the town of Country Campus. The POW camp had a capacity to house 4,800 men, providing housing and medical facilities, a clothing shop, barbershop, laundry, bakery, cafeteria, commissary, gymnasium, guardhouse, fire station, and motor pool. In addition, clubs for both officers and enlisted personnel were provided. Prisoners held at the camp were leased as laborers to local farmers. The camp was deactivated on January 25, 1946, and the property was donated by the government to Sam Houston State Teachers College (later Sam Houston State University) and renamed the Sam Houston Country Campus. The buildings were adapted to serve as dormitories, administrative offices, classrooms, and recreational facilities. Buses shuttled students between the country and main campuses. A post office was established at the site in 1948, and a year later the community reported a population of 1,000. By 1964, however, when the post office closed, the town reported 425 residents and one business. In the 1980s some of the old buildings, a golf course, and pastureland remained at the site. Country Campus in 1990 comprised sixty residents.
On this day in 1903, "The Eyes of Texas" was first sung. The performance took place at a minstrel show benefiting the University of Texas track team at the Hancock Opera House in Austin. The ditty soon became the official song of the University of Texas, and is even considered by some a sort of unofficial state song. (Such enthusiasts are rare at College Station.) William L. Prather, an alumnus of Washington College (Lexington, Virginia) and president of UT from 1899 to 1905, had often in his student days heard Robert E. Lee, then president of Washington College, say to students, "The eyes of the South are upon you." Prather altered the saying for use at UT.

Gatùn Transportation
Gatun is where the three locks for the Panama Canal are that lead from the Caribbean up to the central lake. As such it should be more celebrated on VT. All the traffic that goes through the Canal comes through these locks. The maximum size of ship that can be accommodated is called a Panamax
The maximum dimensions allowed for a ship transiting the canal are:
* Length: 294.1 metres (965 ft)
* Beam (width): 32.3 metres (106 ft)
* Draft: 12.0 metres (39.5 ft) in tropical fresh water (the salinity and temperature of water affect its density, and hence how deep a ship will float in the water)
* Air draft: 57.91 metres (190 ft) measured from the waterline to the vessel's highest point
A Panamax cargo ship would typically have a displacement of around 65,000 tonsRelated to:
- Cruise
- Sailing and Boating
- Architecture
Gatùn Favorites
Favorite thing: Originally, the lock gates were operated by a huge drive wheel, powered by an electric motor, to which was attached a connecting rod, which in turn attached to the middle of the gate but when the system went down, it was possible to operate the locks using the big wheel manually. The mechanism has now been replaced by hydraulics.
Fondest memory: Before you get to the lock you see the Atlantic Entrance Range Middle Light sticking up over the trees. After you get past it you can look back and see the whole lighthouse (photo 4). Next to the third lock is the Gatún Northbound Rear Light (photo 3) which is much photographed because it is right next to the ships going through the locks. It is also the tallest and most conspicuous lighthouse of the Canal.Related to:

For any companies with interests in Russia or Ukraine, the events of the past several weeks and sanctions imposed by the United States, the European Union (EU), Switzerland, Canada and others may impact their business. McDermott's International Trade Group is actively monitoring developments and advising clients on these fast-evolving trade sanctions. Following is a brief summary of the sanctions imposed to date.
U.S. Sanctions
Last month, the U.S. Department of State issued a visa ban for several Ukrainian government officials. On March 6, President Obama issued an executive order (EO) authorizing financial sanctions and travel bans against Russian and Ukrainian government officials (EO 13660). On March 17, he issued another EO extending the sanctions authority to apply to Russian government officials, those involved in the Russian arms industry and those providing material support to the Russian government (EO 13661). Under that authority, the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) added 11 individuals (Russian and Ukrainian nationals) to OFAC's Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) list (Ukraine Sanctions March 17).
On March 20, OFAC added 20 more individuals, including senior Russian government officials, business leaders and a Russian bank (Bank Rossiya in St. Petersburg) to the SDN list (Ukraine Sanctions March 20). Additionally, President Obama issued another new EO on March 20, expanding the authority for the U.S. government to impose sanctions on key Russian business sectors, including energy, financial services, mining and metals, engineering, defense and related material (EO March 20).
EU Sanctions
In parallel with the imposition of U.S. sanctions, the EU on March 5 (EU Ukraine Sanctions March 5) and March 17 (EU Ukraine Sanctions March 17) designated 39 Ukrainian and Russian individuals for sanctions under EU rules. Canada and Switzerland have followed suit and designated many of the same individuals for sanctions under Canadian and Swiss laws.
On March 21, the EU imposed additional sanctions (asset freezes and travel bans) on 12 senior Russian and Crimean government officials (EU Ukraine Sanctions March 21).
Russian Sanctions
On March 20, Russia imposed retaliatory sanctions on nine U.S. government officials, including Deputy National Security Advisor for International Economic Affairs Caroline Atkinson; Assistant to the President and Senior Advisor Daniel Pfeiffer; Deputy National Security Advisor for Strategic Communications Benjamin Rhodes; House Speaker John Boehner; Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid; Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Robert Menendez; and Senators John McCain, Mary Landrieu and Dan Coats.
EU and Ukraine Sign Association Agreement
Coincident with these developments, on March 21, the EU and Ukraine signed a bilateral Association Agreement that will encourage closer political, economic and trade ties. The trade commitments of the Association Agreement will be finalized after Ukraine's elections in May

"It is always great when you can encourage others to read and help them discover for themselves how much fun reading can be. Thank you!"
Educating the children has always been a priority at Wilmer Hall. Over the years, the residents have attended public schools.
However, as the staff received more children behind in their schoolwork or finding it difficult to adjust to public schools,
they recognized a need for an on-campus facility. The Murray School was founded in 1992. The school offers classes in the
sixth through 12th grades.
Flamingnet has donated books to The Wilmer Hall Children's Home to help with their library.
