UCSD's new chancellor: Superman needed?
"There are 13 deans of engineering in the history of Carnegie Mellon. I knew nine, because I am old. Of the nine deans I have known as a student faculty member, department head and provost over the years, Pradeep Khosla is the best," Jordan said. "I was dean myself. I would give myself a bronze medal, and I would give him the gold."
Jordan was impressed, in part, because Khosla helped raise $90 million for a research center for biotechnology, energy and nanotechnology, major fields of study at UC San Diego. He also founded CyLab, a center focused on the now hot field of cybersecurity. And he deepened Carnegie Mellon's relations with the military, which is something that could help him in San Diego. The Defense Department is county's largest employer.
Khosla also got business experience, co-founding QuantaPoint, a company that created a system that helps architects to better plan how to renovate offices buildings and factories.
Khosla's achievements brought him to the attention of executive recruiters, one of whom approached him about seeking the San Diego chancellor's position. The committee was looking, in part, for a friendly, engaging person who would connect with people while also being clear-eyed about the school's needs and challenges.
Khosla not only had "an incredible resume," but he was "personable, engaged and engaging," said UC Trustee Charlene Zettel, who was on the committee that interviewed candidates. "He is an excellent listener. He just really seems to enjoy people. That's important."
He's got grit, too. When he was introduced to the university community, a UCSD executive handed Khosla a pair of rose-colored glasses as part of his "chancellor's survival kit." He handed them back, saying he wouldn't need them.

Down to Earth, Independent, FUN... looking for the same.
I work hard, love to travel, love the ocean. I have a strong personality and I am usually attracted to someone who isn't overly passive. I don't like or have any interest in clubs, my idea of fun is watching some good football games with friends and a pitcher of beer! A day at the beach... a gym buddy... river fun. Etc. :) He should work hard and have similar interests. I can be a complete dork, and just love to laugh.... when my sisters and I get together look out! We laugh hysterically at movie quotes, recalling fun times from the past and anything in between. If you can handle that type of personality let me know! **I AM (pretty) FIRM ON THE AGE RANGE I do not dig chronic couch potatoes, messiness or laziness, he should NOT be any of those things. I also have zero tolerance for drugs. I deserve to be treated like a lady, I appreciate the door being opened for me and a guy that can take charge. Not to say that I can't when need be but I prefer not to be the "guy" in the situation. I live in OC and work in Los Angeles, but I LOVE what I do so it's worth it! I am interested in someone who works hard but can let loose and have fun. I want to laugh, I feel that it's one of the most important elements in a relationship (for me, anyway). I am not perfect, I have made mistakes... if you are searching for perfect and flawless then keep looking. I am interested in starting out as friends... if something comes out of it, great!... I am not into pressure so take it easy. Some guys on here are really pushy and that is SO not my thing. I have one son who graduated last year and is currently attending college. So it's pretty much me and my pup. :)

Is South County's toll road headed for a turnaround?
Questions linger about future traffic projections
Of course, to ensure that SANDAG doesn't have to widen I-805 by that extent, motorists like Karen Davis need to keep taking the South Bay Expressway.
Davis, who was at the toll road's main office in Otay Mesa paying a bill in July, said she used the road frequently when her husband worked nearby.
"It was like smooth sailing," Davis said of the expressway. "It was costly, but I was ready to pay it" because of the time savings and reduce gasoline bill.
SANDAG has taken several marketing steps to boost ridership and build goodwill among the toll road's users.
Last summer, it launched a retail partnership with Costco to expand its customer base. Since then, the agency said, about 3,500 transponders — the electronic toll devices that drivers mount on their windshields — have been distributed through stores in Chula Vista and La Mesa, where Costco members receive $5 in free toll credits.
SANDAG also started the Clean Slate program, which offers discounts on unpaid fines to the roughly 58,000 people with outstanding toll violations. The agency expects that payment of fines will account for only about 5 percent of the expressway's annual budget, said Johnson, the road's program director.
It said outstanding fines, many of which were assessed before SANDAG took over, total about $20 million.
No matter how many incentives SANDAG offers, drivers like Phil Hummell of El Cajon may never be persuaded to try the expressway.
"I'm just philosophically opposed to (paying tolls)," Hummell said recently while pumping gas in Otay Mesa, where he delivers plant nursery products and does some fishing.

The giant horned turtles of the Pacific became extinct later than we thought – and we were to blame.
The half-tonne meiolaniid turtles were thought to have died out 30 to 40,000 years ago. With no signs of human interference, climate change was blamed.
Now butchered turtle remains have been found in the South Pacific island nation of Vanuatu. Carbon dating shows that the most recent bones are between 2890 and 2760 years old. Humans arrived 3000 years ago: "Within 200 years, the turtles were gone," says Trevor Worthy of the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia, who identified the bones.

The present invention encompasses a method and apparatus for ingress detection and attenuation. When a determination is made that the level of ingress in a return frequency band has exceeded a predetermined threshold, the return path is attenuated or disconnected at a communications gateway device located at or substantially near the subscriber location. By disconnecting the return path or attenuating the return path signal at or near the subscriber location, ingress is reduced and locations which are the cause of severe ingress are effectively isolated. This allows for a high degree of reliability to be maintained on the return path, and insures that critical services like cable telephony can be provided.

This application is a continuation-in-part of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/074,851, now U.S. Pat. No. 6,321,384, having a filing date of May 8, 1998, entitled "Noise reduction in cable return", which is a continuation of Ser. No. 08/709,456 filed Aug. 5, 1996 now U.S. Pat. No. 5,881,362 which is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 08/347,573, filed on Nov. 30, 1994, now abandoned.
This application also claims the benefit of U.S. Pat. application Ser. No. 60/183,933, entitled "Two-way cable system home ingress monitoring," filed on Jun. 11, 1999.
All of the aforementioned applications are incorporated herein by this reference, but are not admitted to be prior art.
Cable TV systems, also known as Community Access Television (CATV) Systems, have evolved from simple broadcast systems for television services to bi-directional broadband networks which can carry voice, video and data traffic. This evolution has been accomplished in part by upgrading traditional cable networks to Hybrid Fiber Coaxial (HFC) networks which utilize fiber optic systems in conjunction with active electronics and coaxial cables to deliver broadband signals to the home. These networks also support the reception of return path signals, which are signals generated by units in or near the subscriber and which send data or voice signals from the subscriber or business location to the network through the cable system.
By providing advanced telecommunications services over HFC networks, network operators can enhance their service offerings to include voice, Internet access, and other new and unique multimedia services. Although some of these services may have minimal requirements for the transmission of data from the residence to the head-end and the network, many applications require the reliable transport of data and, in fact, need to have guaranteed and reliable bandwidth.
For example, voice communications can be carried over an HFC network based either on traditional circuit switched technology or emerging Internet Protocol (IP) standards. In either of these transport modes, an unreliable and noisy return path can cause degradation in service and even loss of an active call.
Because the configuration of the cable system is multipoint-to-point from the subscribers to the head-end, the return path has the undesirable characteristic of accumulating or "funneling" noise towards the head-end. The number of subscribers connected to the network is typically greater than 500, and many subscribers can have power dividers (splitters) installed in their homes to allow connection of multiple settops to the cable network. The result of the large number of subscribers and the multiple connections in the home is that there are a large number of points on the cable network where undesirable signals can enter the return path. The commonly used term for undesirable signals on the cable return path is ingress. Ingress is typically, but not limited to, AM shortwave broadcast signals and industrial and atmospheric noise, which can enter on the drop cable connecting the subscriber to the cable plant connection termed the tap, and via the coaxial wiring in the subscriber residence or business location. The coaxial wiring used in the home may be of low quality, and will allow ingress because of the low amount of shielding provided with respect to high quality coaxial cable which has a dense braided wire shield which provides high isolation of the center conductor from external electromagnetic fields. The coaxial wiring in the home is also typically unterminated, and can act as an antenna since currents generated on the outside of the shield can to some extent couple to the inside of the shield at the unterminated end and subsequently excite the center conductor. The accumulation of noise on the return path has adversely limited the use of the return path for many purposes.
For the foregoing reasons, there is a need for a method and apparatus to detect ingress and attenuate it at or near the subscriber location.
The present invention encompasses a method for detecting the presence of return path ingress and mitigating the return path ingress at a communications gateway located inside or near the subscriber residence or business location. The mitigation can be accomplished by either disconnecting the return path at the communications gateway or attenuating the return path signal. Detection of the ingress can occur at the head-end or may occur within the communications gateway.
The method can be practiced across an entire return frequency band or may take place in an active or inactive sub-band of the return frequency band. In the present invention, the detection of ingress can be accomplished by measuring an average return path signal power in the return frequency band and comparing the average return path signal power to a detection threshold. Based on the comparison, a determination that an ingress event is present is declared when the average power exceeds the detection threshold.
In one embodiment of the present invention, information on channel usage can be obtained and is used to distinguish active sub-bands from inactive sub-bands. The presence of ingress can be detected in either the active or inactive sub-bands and mitigated at a location near the subscriber location. The channel usage information can be retrieved from the head-end which can include network management equipment and databases which have channel information available.
Alternatively, the channel usage can be detected automatically at the communications gateway. Automatic detection can be accomplished by estimating the Power Spectrum Density (PSD) of a return path signal, correlating the PSD with a set of stored PSDs and determining the peak correlation frequency and frequency band in use.
The present invention can be realized as a communications gateway which has a network side cable connection for transmitting a return path signal onto a cable network, a subscriber side cable connection for receiving the return path signal from the residence or business, an attenuating element for reducing the power in the return path signal, and a control unit for enabling the attenuating element. In one embodiment, the communications gateway contains a switch which acts as the attenuating element. In alternate embodiments, the attenuating element is a notch filter or active electronics capable of attenuating the signal.
The present invention can also be realized as a communications gateway which contains an acquisition stage for monitoring a return path signal including an analog to digital conversion circuit for digitizing a return path monitoring signal and a processing unit for subsequently processing the return path monitoring signal and determining if the signal exceeds a predetermined threshold.
These and other features and objects of the invention will be more fully understood from the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments which should be read in light of the accompanying drawings.
The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and form a part of the specification, illustrate the embodiments of the present invention and, together with the description serve to explain the principles of the invention.
In the drawings:
In describing a preferred embodiment of the invention illustrated in the drawings, specific terminology will be used for the sake of clarity. However, the invention is not intended to be limited to the specific terms so selected, and it is to be understood that each specific term includes all technical equivalents which operate in a similar manner to accomplish a similar purpose.
With reference to the drawings, in general, and
From node 120 signals are transmitted over coaxial cable 109 through active amplifiers 125. Signals propagating down a coaxial cable 109 are intercepted by tap 127 which routes a portion of the signal to a Communications Gateway (CG) 140 located at or near a residence 152. A drop cable 221 is used to connect tap 127 to CG 140. In a preferred embodiment, drop cable 221 is a coaxial cable. When used herein, the term communications gateway (CG) refers to a device for transmitting and receiving data, voice or video signals over an HFC network. Alternate terminology for a communications gateway includes a Broadband Terminal Interface (BTI) or Coaxial Termination Unit (CTU). The term communications gateway is not intended to be limiting and encompasses equipment which is located on the outside of the home, in the home in a centralized location such as attic, basement or equipment closet, or in another location in the home. Businesses can also use communications gateway type devices for the transmission and reception of data, voice or video signals.
As illustrated in
A telephone 147 can be supported by communications gateway 140 which provides traditional voice services by transmitting and receiving telephone signals and converting them to cable compatible signals. Telephone service supported by the CG 140 may be circuit switched or Internet Protocol (IP) based telephone service.
As shown in
A network management system 160 may also be connected to the Internet/private network 110 and may also be able to access an ingress database 165. Ingress database 165 is used to record ingress events and can be used in conjunction with network management system 160 to establish the thresholds which indicate the presence of unacceptable levels of ingress in residence 152. The network management system 160 can also provide alarm readouts, trends or performance reports to a network operator. In one embodiment, the network management system 160 retrieves spectrum data from CG 140 and performs fault detection analysis on the retrieved spectrum data. The network management system can also store the spectrum data in a database for historical trending or other temporal analysis.
The CG 140 can support telephone services through use of a Network Interface Module (NIM) 230 which supports phone services through a series of RJ11 jacks 231. In a preferred embodiment, the communications gateway also has a data interface which provides data services through RJ45 jack 232.
Referring to RF module 200 illustrated in
In a preferred embodiment, the RF module 200 contains a forward path attenuator 209 which is used in conjunction with an amplifier 207 to provide the appropriate levels in the forward path.
In the return path, a passive monitoring tap 202 is used to extract a portion of the return path signal arriving on in-home cable 223 and directed towards the CGB 220 where a monitoring function is performed. An attenuator/switch 203 is used in the RF module 200 to attenuate or remove return path signals when ingress from that location is determined to be unacceptable. In a preferred embodiment, an amplifier is also present in the return path allowing control of signal levels subsequent to the attenuator/switch 203.
In one embodiment, the attenuator is realized through the use of an electrically controlled variable resistor. In an alternate embodiment, active electronics configured for attenuation, such as an operational amplifier configured for less than unity gain and programmable by an external control signal, can be utilized. Electrically controlled attenuating elements are well known to those skilled in the art. Alternatively, a switch can be utilized in which case the control signal forces opening of the return path and eliminates all signals in the return band that have been generated from devices in the home and have been passed up in-home cable 223 and through diplexer 205. In one embodiment, a notch filter can be used in place of the switch to eliminate the frequencies that have a signal level above the threshold.
In one embodiment, upstream power-level equalization is performed by adjusting the upstream attenuator/switch 203. In one embodiment, the attenuator/switch 203 is initially set to a value which allows signals transmitted from devices in the residence to be received at the head-end. The following algorithm is periodically used to adjust the attenuator/switch 203. This procedure can be used both when ingress control is being performed as well as when no ingress control processes are active.
The algorithm can be simply expressed as:
In the embodiment shown in
In one embodiment, an upstream directional coupler (DC) represented herein as passive tap 202 and a downstream directional coupler 204 are present in the RF module 200 of CG 140 to direct the downstream signal to CG board 220 for ingress monitoring purposes. In this embodiment, the passive tap 202 is used to capture ingress from the home contained in the 5-42 MHz band while the downstream DC 204 captures ingress coming from the tap within the same frequency range. In this embodiment, a switch 206 is placed at the ingress monitoring input of CG board 220 to time-sequence the outputs of DC 204 and passive tap 202. The downstream DC 204 allows detecting wideband ingress which typically enters the plant after the communication gateway 140.
In an alternate embodiment, the return path signals are monitored at head-end 100 to determine if the ingress levels are unacceptable. If so, the CMTS 105 or other head-end equipment can issue a control signal to CG 140 for disconnection or attenuation of the return path. The head-end 100 may selectively disconnect residences in an effort to determine which home is the source of ingress, or may work in conjunction with CG 140 to determine if the return path signal from that particular residence should be disconnected or attenuated.
Referring to
The DSP 320, in addition to performing voice processing for telephony services and other related tasks, can also host a digital implementation of the power estimator module. The DSP 320 can run various algorithms using assembly language, C code or other programming languages supported by the DSP.
The microprocessor 330 can direct the switch to isolate the line when the power exceeds the detection threshold either for a single event or for a predetermined number of ingress events. The microprocessor is connected to Random Access Memory (RAM) 340 which may contain data relative to the operation of the CG 140 and the in-home devices. The data may include information regarding the number of STB 155 and PCs 135 with cable modems in the home, the channels which these devices use, and the expected power levels. This information can be obtained from a network management system 160 and can be downloaded to the communications gateway via downstream channels in the cable system. When this information is present, the threshold can be calculated based on the expected transmissions from the in-home devices, rather than the worse case values discussed above. This allows a lower threshold to be established which still permits transmissions from the in-home devices to pass through the CG 140, but attenuates or disconnects the return path when ingress, as determined by the threshold set in conjunction with information from the network management system 160 and ingress database 165, is present.
Referring to
In one embodiment, the averaging time is set to a value such that T • Δf >>1. The type of ingress to be detected depends on the choice of T, which cannot be longer than the duration of the signal to be monitored. For impulsive noise, the pulse duration is between 0.1 to 1 μsec for approximately 95% of impulse events, and between 1 to 10 μsec for the remaining impulse events. Narrowband ingress typically extends to several milliseconds and occupies a bandwidth on the order of kHz.
In one embodiment ingress detection threshold 402 is established in head-end 100 and transmitted to communication gateway 140. In an alternate embodiment communication gateway 140 establishes ingress detection threshold 402 locally. As previously discussed, ingress detection threshold 402 can vary over time. Ingress database 165 can be utilized to determine an appropriate ingress detection threshold based on historical ingress data. In addition, historical ingress data can be combined with information regarding channel usage, which is available in channel usage information database 115, to determine the appropriate ingress detection threshold.
As shown in
As an example of full band monitoring, a CM can transmit up to 58 dBmV within a bandwidth of 3 MHz and an STB can transmit up to 60 dBmV within 150 kHz. If the transmit power for these devices is lowered from the maximum transmit power by 10 dB, the worst case threshold can be calculated as the estimated PSD from these data sources over the entire return path.
As illustrated in
Information regarding which channels are in use may be obtained from a number of sources, including the CMTS 105 at head-end 100, or by the CMTS 105 in conjunction with the channel usage information database 115. The CMTS 105 incorporates channel usage information as part of its operation in allocation of return path bandwidth using the DOCSIS protocol. Since CMTS 105 transmits downstream channel usage information to the CG 140 as part of the DOCSIS protocol, the CG can determine which return path channels are in use and monitor those channels correspondingly. Information regarding the use of return path channels by other in-home devices including STB 155 can also be transmitted to CG 140, either through DOCSIS or as part of another communication protocol.
Referring to
Once the correlation calculation step 820 is complete, a determine frequency at peak correlation step 830 is performed, followed by a determine minimum frequency band in use step 840. In the determine minimum frequency band in use step 840 the limits of the active channel 710 are determined. These limits are used in conjunction with a stored or calculated PSD mask to determine the parameters for monitoring of the return path frequency band 700.
Although this invention has been illustrated by reference to specific embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made which clearly fall within the scope of the invention. The invention is intended to be protected broadly within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

NBI Director Nonnatus Rojas on Tuesday identified them as Naryun Kim, Yunhee Hwang, Seyoung Chung, Wonseok Yang and Hoi Cherl Yang, all are residing at the upscale Ayala Alabang Village in Muntinlupa City.
The Taipei Economic and Cultural Office (TECO) asked the NBI to investigate international telephone fraud involving South Korean citizens in the country.
On June 21, the NBI National Capital Region received a reliable information concerning several Taiwanese and Korean nationals engaged in fraudulent telephone operations in the Alabang village.
The investigation bureau was able to find the computer technician, who installed the expanded internet/telephone connections via Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and gave information on the operation of the said online casino.
A court-sanctioned search was later conducted and the five South Koreans were arrested for operating the online gambling business without the necessary permits. The suspects also failed to produce documents establishing their identities.
The five will be charged with violating Presidential Decree 1602 as amended by Republic Act 9287 (An Act Increasing the Penalties for Illegal Numbers Game, Amending Certain Provision of PD 1602 and for Other Purposes), and violation of RA 8484 (The Access Device Regulations Act of 1998).

Greendale - Despite heavy graduation losses from the 2010 team, the Greendale football program hardly missed a beat in 2011.
The Panthers won the Woodland Conference Black Division with an 8-0 record and finished 8-2 overall, losing a WIAA Division 2 playoff contest to Brookfield East while missing their top two running backs, Mike Scheidt and Sebastian Garcia-Bankowski.
Their successful tradition continued largely through the hard work and dedication of this year's seniors.
That group featured tight end Kennedy Ringelberg, quarterback Sam Brick, linebacker Drake Barczak, offensive tackle Matt Pulizos and punter Brett Nethery.
They, along with all the other seniors, provided not only production on the field but solid leadership in all areas for the Panthers.
For their accomplishments, all five are members of the 2011 NOW Newspapers All-Suburban team.
Kennedy Ringelberg
He also earned all-state honors at tight end and was named the offensive player of the year in the Woodland Black after catching 30 passes for 572 yards and 10 touchdowns this season. He was clearly a primary option for Brick in the passing game.
"(Working with Brick) was a lot of fun," Ringelberg said. "We are good friends, and that helped out with our football chemistry throughout high school."
Ringelberg said the foundation for Greendale's division crown was laid in the off-season.
"We have a good program, and everyone keeps in shape," he said. "Our preparation is a step ahead of everyone else's."
Sam Brick
Brick was a dual threat in passing and rushing for Greendale this season, accounting for a total of 26 touchdowns. He completed 68 of 119 passes for 1,275 yards with 17 touchdowns and just four interceptions, while adding 457 yards and nine scores on the ground.
Brick was unanimous all-division and the top vote-getter at quarterback on the all-region squad.
"We were confident coming into this year, even though we lost a lot of people," he said. "We knew we had a strong senior class, so we were looking forward to the season."
Drake Barczak
He keyed a solid Panther defense with 98 tackles, including 38 solo, plus 5½ sacks and nine tackles for losses. Barczak topped every linebacker in all-division voting.
"Our work ethic was so good in the off-season," he said about Greendale's success. "Everyone is so dedicated to the program, and coach (Rob) Stoltz is always there leading us."
Matt Pulizos
Pulizos was one of the stalwarts of the Panthers' offensive line and was recognized by division coaches as the top vote-getter on the line as well as lineman of the year.
"I don't know if I expected we would be this good because we lost a lot of people," Pulizos admitted. "Everybody really stepped up this year."
Pulizos is currently looking at a number of colleges, including Illinois State, the home of Greendale alum Eric Brunner.
Brett Nethery
He averaged nearly 42 yards per punt and placed 13 inside the opponent's 20-yard line while only seeing one returned all season.
"He is the best punter not named Gruettner," said Stoltz, referring to Muskego's Jordan Gruettner, the all-state punter.
Nethery said he is proud to be a part of a program as strong as Greendale's.
"At the end of November, we start working out for next year," he said. "Winning conference is part of the expectation each and every year at Greendale. We don't take anything less than that. It is just hard work from everyone involved that makes for success."
Nethery has talked with coaches at Wisconsin, Northwestern, Minnesota and Iowa about being a preferred walk-on as a punter next fall and is awaiting further word.
These five seniors and many others fulfilled their mission of keeping Greendale a winner, and now they turn the task over to next season's group - which, as Nethery said, is already starting its work.

Give Us A Bridge Editor
Hello in this post i want too add an idea for improving ships. namely the ships interior bridges.
Currently we "buy" pre-fabricated bridges for our ships class or from the C-STORE. Here is an idea to change this a little bit.
Take a look at the "Healer bridge and the "Diplomat" and Galaxy class" bridges.
Currently you cannot customize the bridges like our ship exterior or uniforms this post addresses this idea and how to do it.
Ok lets begin with one favorite request and then the idea...
Ok now i will step off the soap box lol.
Here we go. For the bridges lets get blank templates like the Healer, Diplomat, or Galaxy bridge, or even the Pandora template bridge. From here we go to earth or DS9 dock to customize the template we got. So lets say i want to edit the Diplomat bridge. in the editor im in a fill size room holodeck where i walk around and pick and place the things i want.
i can edit the following items...
Captains chair...
Color size, elevated above floor or level, button panels,size, and...era..TOS, Movie,NEXT GEN. etc. as well as which captain chair i want...star trek 3 enterprise, tv TOS kirks chair, Picards chair etc.
Wall Stations:
1. I can edit era...TOS, Movie(star trek 2), or Next gen, movie or tv or STO era game takes place in. i can drag and drop the wall station where i want it...near or far from turbo lift etc;..
2. number of chairs per station...say 3 max so i can do 1,2,or 3 at a wall station. i can pick the chairs era and its color.
I can have the station with a console that comes out from the wall like weapons station on Wrath of Kahn weapon station on bridge..or have console face away from wall completely like Ensign Kims or Tuvoks stations on Voyager.
1. Carpet color, size, shape pattern, and floor boundary with deck plate..or all plates or all carpet etc.
1. I can drag and drop the spot where i want the console and turn which direction i want it to face...captain, view screen etc.
2. its era see..movie era like next gen or TOS etc.
3. Its size. Does it have one center bar for buttons panel or display, is it shaped with side panels like a ] ? or like a )?
4. Does it face the wall, center of bridge ,captain, or view screen?
5. Customize the chair for console. Is it attached like next gen season 1 bridge? Or separate like the TOS chairs?
View Screen:
Which era, size of screen...tos or WALL size like TNG Enterprise. Its outer edge, and the lights flashing on top sides or below the screen.
IT SHOULD allow for the Era or color and locartion of color.
An example would be every other light red and white, or all red, all white. colors should be full palette like uniforms...including brightness too. All lights can be brightened or dimmed and colored individually depending on the default location of the chosen template. You can't move the lights only color,dim, brighten each one.
Give us a color mode for each alert status like Green, Yellow, Red or Abandon Ship. So when in game the player can choose the Alert mode he wants his ship in when others are over.
Battle Damage:
Have a mode where the bridge has a normal, light , moderate,or abandon ship extreme mode for the bridge.
In the mode each wall panel,console, wall beam, lights have a predetermined look for each level of battle damage the player can choose before heading to it, or inviting others over to chat. so once they have the bridge layout he simply clicks the damage mode he wants other players to see.
After all how real is it to have a FULL BLOWN Borg battle and head to sector space to have a pristine looking brightly lit bridge for others to come over and look at? if i came out of a skirmish or battle i want it to look like i did.
So once bridge is designed i click the alert mode and damage mode before i visit. say mission was a surprise attack, green alert with medium damage etc.
In my earlier post i called idea for using ships, I mentioned how to upgrade BOFF'S and level up their stations. Here in the bridge edit mode you can also assign a station for each BOFF and determine if BOFF gets a pose at his/her station for green alert or damaged console...maybe burnt or cut uniforms if mode was for damaged mode vs. normal mode. Are they wounded in chair, slumped over console or stretched out or curled up on floor next to console? Or better yet, if Boff is near an exploding console they begin running around bridge on fire with arms waving and a crewman chasing it with a fire extinguisher along a pre- determined "route" for say 5 seconds before their fire is put out etc. ha ha.
What good is a melted out gutted console or wall station without a raging inferno? Also tailor the level of sparks a console can have as well as fire size and occasional explosion. Have the camera shake in an explosion, how large is console fire, how far do sparks shoot (near or far)?
Does console have fire but no sparks or vice versa? How often and large is explosion(player clicks size and time between explosions but computer chooses the locations) Can it wound player, knock them down or fling them across the bridge? What player chooses also happens to guest...and their fire extinguishers they have also put can out the fires and sparks so bridge can slowly begin being repaired by BOFFS waving tools around consoles like magic wands. The damage repairs only occur after all the fires are out by the player(s)and take as long as pre-determined time chosen allows during visit.
So after all fires are out and i begin chatting with my friends, my BOFFS and random crewmen get up and start pointing and waving their tools to "repair the consoles".
Player sets timer 10 min. or hour etc. as for how long the repairs will take. This will happen with no further action from the players after the fires are out. The captains simply beam over and put out the fires so the crew can begin the repair process according to the timer pre-set by the player.
Basically its more fun when inviting guest over to a customized bridge they can look at and help fix after a battle than to go there to "chat".
Let me know what you think. if you like it mention for others to look up my title "Give Us A Bridge Editor" My other recent post are Trekienomics 101 , and Transporters as a skill. the last 2 are found in user interface area of forums.

I am sure it would be difficult to program all of that, but I do like the idea of choosing some of the features such as the consol display type and where our bridge officer locations are.

Or they could just make a decent Enterprise A bridge. The Prometheus Blaze bridge comes close, but the conn is all wrong, part of the forward deck edge instead of a stand alone console. It's still my favorite bridge design of the ones available to us, though.

Yes please! A bridge editor would be awesome.
Even if it "only" takes the form of premade slots on the ground where we can place different chairs and stations/consoles (thus also indirectly controlling where our BOs sit) or set the overall lighting. There's a lot of cool bridges already in the game, but somehow there's always something that I'd like to see different in each of them.
And please, please, please give us an option to some proper LCARS colors like the orange/blue+red/white from the DS9/VOY-era and not the "cold" blue-on-blue we currently have. It's too monotonous and simply doesn't awaken a feeling of recognition.
Naturally, there's only so many things that can practically be done with limited development resources (seeing that there's also other content and features that should not be neglected), so I guess we shouldn't ask for too much (like battle damage etc) - but I'm sure "something" like a very basic editor could be done.
The same system could also be adapted to edit the other ship interiors at a later point of time, too.

Yes, this is what I want...ESPECIALLY FOR THE KDF SIDE...our chairs still aren't the right height off the deck..I mean my dude and my orion aren't the tallest of the bunch but their feet go through the deck plating....
As far as it goes if they cannot do the typical LCARS, then adjust to give us colors and when the BO's are sitting there pecking away randomly have differet portions of the consoles (TOS era) or parts of the LCARS light up....this way it looks good...

Dstalh has been saying for a while that the Foundry tools are the first step in getting thing like fleet starbesses ingame, mostly becuase they want them to be customisable I believe. It wouldn't suprise me much if customisable bridges and interiors were to follow closly behind such features. As far as we know we can already place consoles and such in the rooms we'll get with the Foundry, It would just be a matter of linking them to your ship then.

A substantial slice of final earnings for Realtors (just over two-fifths) arrives through commissions. Median overall income in this area is approximately $50K. Women Realtors who took the survey just slightly outnumber men. For the most part, Realtors enjoy their work and report high levels of job satisfaction. Between a fifth and a fourth receive medical and dental insurance and around an eighth get vision plans. Figures cited in this summary are based on replies to PayScale's salary questionnaire.

A realtor is a person who helps people buy and sell houses. Typically a realtor will work most closely with persons who are attempting the steps required in selling a house or similar property. However, people who are relocating to an area or looking to move into a new home may also engage a realtor to assist them in their search. In many instances, the realtor acts as a representative in the interests of the buying or selling client they represent. The realtor gets the best sale price possible, while looking out for the best interests of the persons they're assisting.Read More...
In helping to sell a home or property, a realtor will usually engage with the seller to first help determine a fair market value and asking price. The realtor will take into account not only the assessed value of the home, but also recent sales in the vicinity when advising on this asking price. In assisting with the buying aspect of a home or property, a realtor will typically work to discover the needs and wants of a client regarding location and family size and will prioritize these various criteria. The realtor will show clients homes and properties that match these requirements and fit within the buyer's price range.
To work as a realtor, in most jurisdictions a person must become certified. This typically involves classes offered in a community college or other classroom setting. Realtors are salespersons of the highest order, typically relying on commissions as their primary form of income. To be successful, a realtor must be personable and outgoing and have excellent customer service instincts. Most realtors work regular hours during the week, with occasional irregular and weekend duties. Realtors typically split time between an office environment and field work, visiting and showing properties.

Though some Realtors move into positions like Real Estate Asset Manager (where the average salary is $75K), this progression is not the norm. Many Realtors advance into roles as Administrative Assistants or Property Managers, but the median salaries are $19K lower and $9K lower, respectively.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Realtors with a rich background of experience are typically rewarded with larger paychecks. The average worker who claims fewer than five years of experience earns around $44K. In contrast, however, individuals who report five to 10 years in this occupation see a much larger median of $61K. Realtors see a median salary of $77K after reaching one to two decades on the job. Realtors who surpass 20 years on the job report pay that isn't as high as one would expect; the median compensation for this crowd sits around $95K.

PORTLAND The TV, film and video game design community is expanding into the realm of motion capture.
When Clackamas Community College announced it would hold a class in motion capture it filled within hours.
It's the schools next evolution in digital media that will expand Oregon's already booming film, TV and video game design industry.
Sometimes what you see isn t what you get.
Motion capture is a term used when human motion is mapped to a computer generated image.
It's LED lights, 16 cameras, capture suits, computers, and then comes the action.
Subjects wear black suits covered in small red LED lights. Those LED's show up as data points. Then a 3D model is applied to the LED points and the performer turns into a digital image.
Actually, there's nothing like this in the State of Oregon, said Andy Mingo with the Digital Media Department at Clackamas Community College. It captures a performance basically in a stick figure that's processed into the computer.
Clackamas Community College is the first to offer a course in mo cap.
Students will come learn how set it up, utilize and apply motion capture sessions through 3D models, Mingo said. Clackamas County has identified the film and media industry as one of its core growth industries.
It s a $95,000 investment that s already paying off. The class filled up immediately and the program promises to be a jobs creator. It's also a welcome addition to the state s growing video game design industry.
We've had clients come up to us and say can you do motion capture services, said Damon Redmond of Supergenius Studio. But unfortunately there isn't a studio around [here] for us to rent. Until now, because what you see is really what you get in this new virtual reality.
If you're interested in finding out more about the classes contact Clackamas Community College.
Classes will be held four times a year.

What do you suggest for packages that currently are not part of sarge? Two of mine (gramofile and kino) have been removed due to RC bugs that have been fixed in unstable in the meantime. Outdated arm binaries in unstable keep them from migrating back, though. Do you suggest I ask ftpmasters to remove the arm version from unstable, do you want to force the new version into testing on !arm, or should I just wait for the arm buildds to catch up? (The latter will take a while as both packages have extra priority.) Regards, Daniel.

Aleon Craft w/ Mansions on the Moon - Broken Paradise (Solar-Hop Remix)
Artist: Aleon Craft
Producer: SMKA
Album: Craft Singles
Avg Rating: 3.4 ( 5 votes )
Let it be known that Aleon Craft and production team SMKA are on point when it comes to creative joints from the dirty south. While sometimes feeling misunderstood as an artist, Craft continues to make a name for himself as an out-of-the-box emcee with an appreciation for all genres of music. Broken Paradise (Solar-Hop Remix) is a prime example of this, as the Freestyle Series alum looks to Mansions on the Moon's track of the same name for inspiration. The SMKA-flipped beat brings the record full circle with entrancing production that truly compliments both the bars and vocals. Whether you're on (or off) the fence with AC's music, listeners should appreciate the fact that there hasn't been this much funk in Atlanta since the Outkast era (collectively and separately, mind you). If you need further proof that Craft makes his own paradise, lookout for his Craft Singles project, dropping tomorrow, July 19.

Plagued by haters? A brand new record from Beatz Galaw suggests a novel solution: simply slip on some shades and Block 'Em. Donning their best specs on this track are NYC emcees Mickey Factz and MIMS, both of whom drop engaging, wordplay-filled verses (the latter raps, "I graduated, with honors/ Pre? I'm post-madonna.") celebrating their skills, their bank accounts, and the blocking powers of their eyewear. Beatz Galaw Productions' H-Storm contributes a beat that listeners will likely either love or hate, following the odd yet compelling trend of basing a cut around repetitive, sliced-and-diced vocal samples. Though the subject matter precludes any particularly deep lyricism, the record is inarguably a lot of fun – I challenge you not to crack a smile when MIMS pops back in near the end to exclaim, "I got my shades on – I'm so cool!" Block 'Em is set for inclusion on a yet-untitled project dropping in March of this year.
