Hi All,

I've been working with this board all night using an Arduino UNO R3. I simply cannot get it to respond to a basic servo program. When I set the baud rate to 2400 it says the baud is too low, and when I set it to 9600 it says the rate is too high. Anyone else run into this problem?

Generally when you start looking at distances like that, you want to look at a wireless solution. It will negate the effects of cable degradation of your signal and will allow you to keep a power supply closer to your servos, which can prevent any weird power issues as well. Most cheap wireless solutions will work over TTL, so you would still probably need the converter, depending on what option you went with.

Toni - I am starting to get more into Arduino and electronics in general and it isn't clear to me if the RS-232 protocol for this serial servo controller will work over longer distances of 300ft from the Arduino. I understand I may need to get a max3232 based adapter (ttl to rs232) for the Arduino, maybe lower the baud rate and use high quality copper (cat5e cable), but are there any other precautions or resources you may suggest. Or is this not even possible with this Polulu micro serial servo controller?

I use a combination of this servo controller plus a couple xbees as a controller for my airplane and my quadcopter.

Here is the program I wrote using Visual C# 2010 Express and the SlimDX SDK to pull data from a joystick, modify it, and send it out over a serial port.

Here is a link to a thread I started about auto-resetting the controller after a fatal error. It also has a diagram of my airplane setup using only one battery to power everything.

So far, I've only done projects involving one servo. You can get by without this controller with one, probably two servos. Just give the servos power (the 5v source from the arduino works fine for one servo, not sure about two), a ground, and the Servo.h header file makes the rest pretty easy. If you're working with high torque servos that need to have a lot of power, you'll probably need this, though.. or maybe an external power supply as long as the servos and arduino on the same ground. Hope this helps!

If I sent a command string to move a servo, for example this string of values:
 128 1 4 0 22 0
 to move servo zero to a roughly neutral position, do I need to send the command string multiple times for the servo to hold position?
 If I send it once, the servo moves a little bit to the target position, and sending the string multiple times moves the servo progressively closer till the servo reaches position and the yellow LED on the controller board extinguishes.
 I'm using the Pololu protocol and I've set the servo speed to maximum.
 Edit: No worries, sussed it :-)
 The servo was drawing too much power from the battery as the motor started to move, so the current would dip too low and the controller would reset.

Digital Servos: Please ignore or remove my comment. I spoke too soon as I was using an 800mA power supply for the test and digital servos probably use a bit more current than analog. Will test this out with a new power supply. My apologies…

There are thousands of these out there being used with all kinds of servos, including digital servos. Your problem is probably specific to your particular servos or your power setup. Did you see the reply you got when you posted to the Pololu forum? (http://forum.pololu.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=1522)

Great board for ANALOG servos. Fast response to moving multiple servos at once. HOWEVER, I tested this board with various Digital servos and it did not work–acts all buggy. If you have found differently let me know.

Australia gives P96M more for 'Pablo' relief
More News from Tarra Quismundo
More News from Philippine Daily Inquirer
The Australian government on Tuesday announced additional aid of 2.3 million Australian dollars (around P96 million) to support the Philippines' continuing relief efforts for victims of typhoon "Pablo" in Eastern Mindanao.
Geoff King, counselor of the Australian Agency for International Development (AusAID), said the fresh aid brings to a total $7.3 million (P307 million) Australia's aid for thousands of families still homeless and without any means of living after one of the worst typhoons in recent history hit the southern island.
The World Food Programme (WFP), the organization through which most foreign governments course food aid, said other countries are expected to confirm their aid pledges.
Roughly half of the additional Australian aid, around P48 million, will go to WFP for purchase of rice supply for Pablo relief efforts, said King in an interview at the WFP warehouse in Taguig City Tuesday.
King said Australia was also increasing assistance for shelter (through Habitat for Humanity) and for health-related items and the UNFP (United Nations Population Fund) around health-related, non-food items and working on disability, helping those who are most in need."
Calling the Philippines' humanitarian emergency "staggering," Australian Chargé d' Affaires Andrew Byrne said Australia's support for the Philippines will never waver, whether in responding to disasters or building the country's capacity to prepare for and mitigate the effects of natural calamities.
"The devastation caused by typhoon Pablo is enormous and Australia will continue to assist the Philippine government's well-coordinated efforts to address this crisis," Byrne said in a statement.

Professor: Man Did Not Evolve From Chimpanzee-like ApesPosted Oct, 1, 2009
Man Did Not Evolve From Chimpanzee-Like Apes Says Leading Anthropologist: Kent State University Professor C. Owen Lovejoy Helps Unveil Oldest Hominid Skeleton That Revises How We Think of Human Evolution
KENT, Ohio – Oct. 1, 2009 – Throw out all those posters and books that depict a living ape evolving into a human being, says Kent State University Professor of Anthropology Dr. C. Owen Lovejoy. An internationally recognized biological anthropologist who specializes in the study of human origins, Lovejoy is one of the primary authors who revealed their research findings today on Ardipithecus ramidus, a hominid species that lived 4.4 million years ago in what is now Ethiopia.
"People often think we evolved from ancestors that look like apes, but no, apes in some ways evolved from ancestors that look like us," Lovejoy said. "It has been a popular idea to think humans are modified chimpanzees. From studying Ardipithecus ramidus, or 'Ardi,' we learn that we cannot understand or model human evolution from chimps and gorillas."
A special issue of Science (www.sciencemag.org) available Oct. 2 will feature 11 papers that are the first formal description of "Ardi," a partial female skeleton. Lovejoy was first author on five papers and contributed to an additional three. For the past seven years, he has been a part of a major international research effort studying "Ardi," serving as post-cranial anatomist and behavioral theorist.
One of Lovejoy's most recognized achievements is the reconstruction of the skeleton of "Lucy," a fossil of a human ancestor that walked upright more than three million years ago. "'Ardi' is one million years older than 'Lucy,' more informative than 'Lucy,' and 'Ardi' changes what we know about human evolution."
When comparing "Ardi" to "Lucy," Lovejoy said that working on "Ardi" was much more exciting and interesting. "She provides real answers," he said.
A resident of Kent, Ohio, Lovejoy has taught at Kent State for 40 years. He is a widely published author, with more than 100 articles in prestigious publications. He also holds the honor of being one of the Institute for Scientific Information's "Most Highly Cited" authors in social sciences. In 2007, he was elected to membership in the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) for excellence in original scientific research. Membership in the NAS is one of the highest honors given to a scientist in the United States.
A Discovery Channel special will air this month that will feature Lovejoy and Kent State. It premieres Oct. 11 at 9 p.m. Eastern Time. For more information on the special, visit http://dsc.discovery.com/tv/ardipithecus/ardipithecus.html?campaign=dsc-int-hp-dl-ardi.

B really surprised me by doing a more complicated pattern on her snake. She used three tubes of each color.
Even Little C got into the act. Her snake starts out looking like a pattern but that is just a coincidence. She has no idea what a pattern is and just randomly made her snake.
"A" double checks her snake to make sure she has the correct pattern.
When the girls were done stringing the tubes, they glued on sequin eyes and a red felt tongue. Here are our finished pattern snakes.
After what seemed like forever, the glue had dried and the kids were able to play with their pattern snakes.

Version 10 Upgrade
Version 10 has been out for a while. Has anyone upgraded yet and are there any concerns or tips you can share that would help those of us that have not upgraded yet. I am looking at the upgrade . I saw they have the 2010-3 pcu for version 10 as well
It looks as though gold standards have been removed / changed and now you use baselines to compare the builds of machines against each other. If you have any experience in this I'd like to talk to you and see how this has worked for your organization.
Comments 2 Comments • Jump to latest comment
Upgrade was quite smooth for me (a test setup with all the components on a single server!). Just that you need to keep in mind to run MandatePolicyMetricsGenerator.exe before and MigrationUtility.exe after the upgrade. Nothing else in particular. DC upgrade and then the RA. RA components if distrubuted, the order of upgrade should be directory server, application server and DPS. So far so good for me!
Yes, no more gold standards. Baselines jobs if I'm not mistaken were present from 9.0 onwards. The interface hasn't changed much and so the architecture. I'm still looking forward to integrating CCS with the new DLP connector and also the CCS Vulnerability Manager.
Thanks for the input. It looks like each time we're trying to utlize more of SCCS it changes via a major upgrade. I like the idea of making a baselinethen comparing that against other assets than a gold standard that may / may not have all of the items in it that I need for the environment that I'm in
Thanks again for your time on this

Greenwald: Obama's Failure to Punish Banks Should Be Causing Serious Social UnrestSubmitted by bobbyw24 on Thu, 01/24/2013 - 16:45
A new PBS Frontline report examines outrageous steps Obama's administration took to protect Wall St. Wall Street from prosecutions.
January 23, 2013 | Alternet
PBS' Frontline program on Tuesday night broadcast a new one-hour report on one of the greatest and most shameful failings of the Obama administration: the lack of even a single arrest or prosecution of any senior Wall Street banker for the systemic fraud that precipitated the 2008 financial crisis: a crisis from which millions of people around the world are still suffering. What this program particularly demonstrated was that the Obama justice department, in particular the Chief of its Criminal Division, Lanny Breuer, never even tried to hold the high-level criminals accountable.
What Obama justice officials did instead is exactly what they did in the face of high-level Bush era crimes of torture and warrantless eavesdropping: namely, acted to protect the most powerful factions in the society in the face of overwhelming evidence of serious criminality. Indeed, financial elites were not only vested with impunity for their fraud, but thrived as a result of it, even as ordinary Americans continue to suffer the effects of that crisis.
Worst of all, Obama justice officials both shielded and feted these Wall Street oligarchs (who, just by the way, overwhelmingly supported Obama's 2008 presidential campaign) as they simultaneously prosecuted and imprisoned powerless Americans for far more trivial transgressions. As Harvard law professor Larry Lessig put it two weeks ago when expressing anger over the DOJ's persecution of Aaron Swartz: "we live in a world where the architects of the financial crisis regularly dine at the White House." (Indeed, as "The Untouchables" put it: while no senior Wall Street executives have been prosecuted, "many small mortgage brokers, loan appraisers and even home buyers" have been).

PBS outlet has no
intellectual might to investigate things. They have the same myopia as our populists here.
1) Banks and the FED were not interested in the social-political agenda to give homes to as many as possible. The government forced banks to provide sub-prime lending. The demand that followed forced the FED to add more reserves to the banks.
2) People LOVE to have FDIC insurance on their deposits. Trade unions LOVE to have their pension funds in Wall Street stocks. Therefore, USA could not let banks, monopolies and their depositors (people at large) fail.
The alternative to doing nothing
Is a Washington investigation. A Washington investigation is where one guilty party called "the independent counsel" colludes in secret with another guilty party named as "the scandalizer" to pin the negative innuendo on some poor low level unaware sap. The "independent counsel"'s job is appear shocked at the scandalousness of it all. No criminal charges are ever filed.
At least Obama is honest. In a way. He's not doing anything because it would just open a bigger can of worms. And who the eff'ing heck would or could he find to play the role of "independent counsel"? Crisis actors are getting easier and easier to spot these days.
I don't think they ever will prosecute these things because they know it will only come back to hurt them. An investigation into the banks would undoubtedly lead to fingers being pointed right back at the government, FDIC, regulators, Fannie/Freddie, and policy makers at all level. They know it, and they can't have any of it.
Mary Jo White
Now he has nominated a former prosecutor to be the head of the SEC. Obama praised her work prosecuting orgainzed crime families and the World Trade Center bombers. He seemed to downplay that as an attorney she represented JP Morgan and BOA's Ken Lewis. A Reuters story calls this balance. OMG.
You should throw into this prosecution list
the folks at the Federal Accounting Standards Board (FASB) who allowed the nations top banks to mark to fantasy the assets they own on their balance sheets (houses that had fallen in value) to stave off the already underwater FDIC.
I still to this day know of people who have lived mortgage free for over 3 years and one who owns multiple houses that he collects rent on. These houses are worth about half of what he paid for them after taking out loan after loan and buying more houses at the height of the market (when I was telling him to diversify into gold).
Instead of the banks foreclosing upon his houses, they have no incentive to because they don't have to "mark to market" (mark to today's value) that asset on their balance sheet because the FASB allows banks to cheat. It's a sham.
We have to play by the rules. Banks don't. And then Congress gives them money and banks keep doing business as usual (including shorting gold and silver) knowing they are invincible. Meanwhile the sub-investment grade derivatives the nations top banks own are more now than at the height of the 2008 financial crisis. Yet no one writes about this.
I have written much on this and my latest was titled: Bernanke and the Fed Will Do Anything to Save the Banks Under the Guise of Reducing Unemployment
J.P. Morgan, you will recall, last year had a $1 billion, no $5 billion, now $6.4 billion trade go wrong they blamed on a London Whale and fired a prominent V.P. over. They simply had no counterparty to this trade and had to take the loss. J.P. Morgan has more of the sub-investment grade derivatives on the books coming due in the next 5 years than they do Market Cap. Congress and the Fed will be asked to step in to save the "too big to fail." Again.

LONGVIEW, Wash. -- The owners of two dogs that entered a Longview home and killed a cat last month have euthanized one of the dogs, but are appealing the dangerous dog declaration for the other.
The dogs got loose from their yard and entered a home two blocks away through a sliding glass door May 6, Longview police said. The man inside the home tried to get them to go back outside, but they saw the cat and pounced on it. The man said he had to sneak outside and lock the dogs in.
Background: 2 dogs enter Wash. home, kill cat
As first reported in the Daily News, the owners of the dogs decided to euthanize the one they say initiated the attack. The other dog has been declared dangerous by the Humane Society, but the owners are contesting the designation.
Under Longview ordinance an owner must register and pay an annual fee for a dangerous dog, post clearly visible dangerous dog signs on the property, put a muzzle and short leash on the dog if it leaves the property and obtain an extra $250,000 in liability insurance payable to anybody injured by the dog.
The owners were also given a citation for letting the dogs run loose. A court date has not been set for the appeal, Cowlitz County officials said.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Florida returns six of its top seven offensive linemen from last season.
That could be good or bad.
The 23rd-ranked Gators were mostly mediocre up front in 2011, failing to consistently open holes for the running game and giving up almost as many sacks (23) as the offense scored touchdowns (30).

"Comics Are Everywhere," but will film play anywhere?
On tiny budget, filmmakers at Comic-Con ask big question
"Comics Are Everywhere," but so far evidence of the movie exists mostly online.
On the documentary's Facebook page — you can find it by clicking here — there's a three-minute preview of the movie, plus photos and tweets from the team as they explore the world of comics and comics creators.
Conan O'Brien is in the house. Jon Favreau, Maggie Q, Peter Dinklage, Vivica A. Fox, Guillermo del Toro — all here. The San Diego Convention Center is bigger than Alaska (or seems so when you're trekking from Aisle 100 to Aisle 5,400) but at times Comic-Con is one cozy Hollywood block party.
Neil Kendricks might as well be in a galaxy far, far away. He extended his arms in front of his volunteer crew — two cameramen and a film school student with a microphone — then clapped.
"Action," he said.
"Comics Are Everywhere," Kendricks and company's feature-length documentary about comic books artists, may come to a theater near you, but not soon. Filming began at last year's Con and may continue another year. If money allows. Calling this a shoestring production is an insult to footwear accessories.
"This is real, real low budget," Kendricks said. "No one gets a trailer on this gig."
But these cash-strapped filmmakers are at Comic-Con 2011, exploring a theme that dwarfs the concerns of most blockbusters. Why do artists create? And how do they fulfill personal, often uncommercial, visions while still paying the bills?
One answer: by cutting more corners than Speed Racer. Kendricks, for example, could buy a clapper board for $25, but he chooses to use his outstretched arms.
"Poor man's clapper," he said.
Scaling the peak
An artist, Kendricks always travels with a sketchbook in his backpack. This isn't for fun — "I have to draw," he says — but it's not for profit, either. He earns a living by teaching college courses in the arts, organizing film series at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego and writing. (Until July 2010, he was a regular freelance writer for the U-T.)
He loves movies and comic books, two ingredients that blend like popcorn and butter. Multiplexes overflow with flicks inspired by comics; "Captain America" debuted this week, "Cowboys & Aliens" next. Yet movies about comic books are rare. "Comic Book Confidential" is more than 20 years old. How about "Crumb," the documentary focusing on underground cartoonist R. Crumb?
"That's more about his family's dysfunction than comics," Kendricks said.
Last year, Kendricks contacted two friends in Los Angeles, cinematographer Nathan Gulick and Kathryn Panian, a film editor. Why not make the movie they all wanted to see, the ultimate statement about 21st century comics and their creators?
The trio began shooting at last year's Con. They settled on three main characters: Danni Shinya Luo, 28, a Pasadena resident who has sold sexy covers to Marvel ("X-23") and even racier calendars and paintings to fans; J.J. Villard, 30, an L.A. resident who is developing a show for Cartoon Network and hawking sketchbooks filled with X-rated images; and Daniel Clowes, 50, a graphic novelist — "Ghost World," "Mr. Wonderful," "Wilson" — and bona fide critical and commercial success.

Having Marines familiar with the region helps the service get a better lay of the land, Marine commandant Gen. James Amos told the Senate in February.
"The establishment of a rotational presence of Marines in Darwin, Australia, has already had a positive impact on the confidence of our allies and our ability to respond to crises in the South and Southeast Asian littoral," Amos said.
Though Marines have not needed to perform the massive amphibious invasions of World War II, they have used the ability to land without established ports and airfields in several humanitarian-relief operations in the last decade.
The Americans and the Aussies have played up the ability for humanitarian response as part of the Darwin training plan.
However, not all in the region are pleased with the growing partnership between Australia and the United States.
When the deal was announced in 2011, it was widely seen as a hedge against a rising China and drew the ire of Chinese officials who hinted an increased U.S. presence could inflame conflicts.
"It may not be appropriate to strengthen and extend this military alliance," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Weimin was quoted by Australia's ABC in 2011 after the Darwin deal was announced.
"Whether it suits the common interests of countries around the region and the whole international community remains under question."
Sam LaGrone, a longtime naval writer, is the online editor at the U.S. Naval Institute in Annapolis, Md.

Henry Wiles is currently leading the Grand National Championship Singles class by 30 points ahead of Joe Kopp.
Monster Energy
's Henry Wiles scored the win at Springfield, Illinois State Fairgrounds during Round 13 of the
GNC Singles short track. The defending Singles champion took the victory ahead of Zanotti Racing's Jake Johnson by more than five seconds, with rookie J.D. Beach rounding out the top-three finishers aboard his Red Bull
"I wasn't really nervous about tonight, I knew I just had to do my job," said Wiles. "I had to take my time and get around Chad (Cose), but then it was a matter of concentrating on the track."
Taking the holeshot in the first race of the evening was Digger Helm/Lightshoe/Arlen Ness's Chad Cose, and the Honda rider led for the first lap until Wiles jumped into the lead, leaving Cose to battle for second with Latus
/Moto Concepts' Joe Kopp and Bettencourt's Honda's Kenny Coolbeth.
Jake Johnson had a slow start but by Lap 7 he was up to seventh-place and quickly advancing. Cose, under pressure from Coolbeth, finally buckled and crashed out in Turn 2. Meanwhile, in his first Grand National appearance Beach finished third ahead of Kopp, who trailed back in fourth as Chris Carr made his way up to fifth.
Carr, who had been forced to use his back-up bike after the primary mount failed in the Dash for Cash event, made a comeback and finished fifth after starting from the fourth row. Wiles also nabbed the Dash for Cash contest, winning $1,000 and an additional five points.

Pointing: It isn't just for pop-ups anymore
Updated 6/14/2006 1:25 AM ET
By Jorge L. Ortiz, USA TODAY
Just before hugging his son in celebration of his 715th career home run last month, Barry Bonds pointed both index fingers to the sky, a gesture he makes at the conclusion of every trot around the bases.
Earlier in that homestand at San Francisco's AT&T Park, Bonds' heir apparent as baseball's dominant power hitter, the St. Louis Cardinals' Albert Pujols, pointed heavenward after pounding a three-run homer.
The expression has become commonplace at ballparks throughout the majors. Vladimir Guerrero, Preston Wilson and David Ortiz do it after every home run. Nick Swisher after every hit. Francisco Rodriguez after every save. Victor Martinez after successful plays.
Football players spike the ball upon reaching the end zone. Basketball players puff out their jerseys after a big basket.
Baseball players increasingly cast their digits above, not only upon reaching a milestone as Wade Boggs did after his 3,000th hit and Mark McGwire when he broke Roger Maris' single-season homer record but even after run-of-the-mill singles.
"Everyone does it now," says Bonds, who believes he invented it.
The significance of the gesture, sometimes accompanied by a kiss of the fingers or a tap of the chest, varies by player, but generally there are two camps: those thanking God and those paying tribute to a relative, usually deceased.
Swisher, an Oakland Athletics outfielder and first baseman, has a tattoo of his grandmother's initials on his chest. Betty Lorraine Swisher, who helped raise her grandson in Parkersburg, W.Va., died last August, an emotional blow the player took hard.
"The thing that gave me closure or a way to still feel a connection with her was to always point to her," Swisher says. "I just want to let her know that I'm still thinking about her."
Some of the players who point skyward emphasized they're not trying to show up their opponents.
The potential for misinterpretation certainly exists, witness the incident between Chicago White Sox catcher A.J. Pierzynski and Chicago Cubs pitcher Carlos Zambrano on May 21.
The previous day Pierzynski had been punched in the jaw by Cubs catcher Michael Barrett after barreling in on a play at the plate, setting off a melee. In the following game, Pierzynski homered off Zambrano and exchanged words with him while rounding the bases.
When he reached the plate, Pierzynski appeared to mimic Zambrano by tapping his chest and pointing to the sky, similar to what the pitcher does when he escapes trouble. The bad blood intensified, but there was no fighting.
Pujols began pointing to heaven after home runs when he became a Christian seven years ago. The Cardinals first baseman says he hasn't encountered any objection to his expression of faith.
"I don't have to hide my religion," Pujols says.
"If the Lord Jesus Christ who died for us taught us religion and taught us how to be Christians, why should we hide that?"
Besides pointing, Pujols is among the Latin players who place a religious symbol, in his case a cross, in their lockers at home and on the road.
Seattle Mariners second baseman Jose Lopez has atop his locker a figurine of the Virgin del Valle, patron of the Oriente region in northeast Venezuela. Lopez says he thanks her and God by pointing after getting hits.
All of which is fine, says the Rev. Patrick Kelly, as long as players don't believe their religious faith will help them win ballgames.
Kelly, a faculty member of Seattle University's Center for the Study of Sport, organizes conferences that address the relationship between sports and Catholic values. He cautions against looking at God as the ultimate cleanup hitter or closer.
"We don't want to get into this thing where God is on my side helping me to win all the time," Kelly says. "God isn't just there to help us achieve. He's there in much more significant ways."

Originally written on Waiting For Next Year | Last updated 11/18/14
Adam Caplan reports that the Bengals are on the trail of former Cleveland Browns tight end Alex Smith. Veteran FB/TE Alex Smith's visit with the Bengals is scheduled for today. — Adam Caplan (@caplannfl) April 10, 2013 The summation for Alex Smith's time in Cleveland for me is probably that he was better than I ever thought he would be. Nobody will ever forget the time the Browns handed the ball off to him, but I think most put that on Shurmur. In the end, Smith was a high energy player for the Browns with a zeal for blocking and better hands than many of us expected. In the end, Smith played 28 games for the Browns receiving 28 passes for 184 yards and 1 TD. The Browns currently have five tight ends on the official roster in Jordan Cameron, Gary Barnidge, Kellen Davis, Dan Gronkowski, and Brad Smelley. It wouldn't surprise most if the Browns took another tight end in the draft. [Related: Raiders sign former Browns safety Usama Young]

Advertising is a bit like an arms race, with businesses competing with one another in a never-ending battle for the eyes and ears of consumers. The latest salvo in this Don Draper war is the MirrorBox, billed as "the world's first projection-mapped display unit."

Video Road Test: Ford Fiesta ST

Ordinarily, cameras either expose for the dark areas of a scene by leaving everything else over-exposed, or for the brightest parts of a scene by leaving everything else under-exposed. Thanks to the advent of high dynamic range (HDR) photography, however, it's now possible to produce single images in which everything is exposed properly. Although HDR photos are typically captured with still cameras, HDRinstant software allows them to be created from frames of video. Read More
While the International Space Station may be mankind's outpost for the conquest of space, it still leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to a decent YouTube connection. That's because, for all its sophistication, the station's communications system is still based on 1960s radio technology and has all the bandwidth of a soda straw. That changed this week as NASA took a step into the video age with the test of its Optical Payload for Lasercomm Science (OPALS) demonstrator, which saw a laser used to beam a video to Earth in seconds instead of the usual minutes.

Five of the best: Red Bull stunts
May 21, 2014
You could be forgiven for forgetting that Red Bull sells more than 5 billion cans of soft drink a year. For every logo you see on a can of energy drink, there must be another five plastered on screaming Formula One cars, upside-down motorcycles, stunt planes and skateboards. Red Bull almost single-handedly created the energy drink market we know today, piggybacking on the rise of extreme sports to get its brand out there ... and delivering some truly memorable marketing stunts along the way. Here's our five favorites. Read More
Google opened up the Chromecast SDK to developers earlier this year, and some new and exciting apps are starting to pop up. One of them is Videostream for Google Chromecast.

The big draw here is that it supports virtually any video or audio file type you have. Read More
The 3D format has had something of a renaissance in recent years, but the technology still has some way to go before the potential of "real-life" multiperspective 3-D can be realized. The Camera Culture group at the MIT Media Lab is developing a new 3D video projection system that doesn't require glasses and provides different users different perspective angles of the same object. The team sees it not as a final answer, but as a transitional system that sits between current technologies and true holographic video. Read More

Sheriff: Race crash victim was driver's cousin
Monday - 3/18/2013, 4:18am EDT
Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- A California raceway crash killed a race car owner and the young cousin of the teenage driver whose vehicle careened off the track before it struck the two victims, authorities said Sunday.
Dale Wondergem Jr., 68, and Marcus Johnson, 14, were in the pit area when they were hit about 6 p.m. Saturday at the Marysville Raceway Park, about 40 miles north of Sacramento, according to the Yuba County Sheriff's Department. Wondergem, of Grass Valley, was pronounced dead at the scene, and Marcus Johnson, of Santa Rosa, was pronounced dead shortly after arrival at a hospital, authorities said.
Marcus Johnson was identified by authorities as the cousin of 17-year-old driver Chase Johnson, who was not injured in the collision. The younger victim was not an official member of his cousin's crew. Authorities are investigating why he was in the pit area, according to Undersheriff Jerry Read said.
The Marysville raceway was hosting the California Sprint Car Civil War Series on the opening day of its season. Wondergem owned one of the race cars at the track Saturday, but not the one involved in the crash, Read said.
The crash occurred when six or seven "winged sprint cars" were doing warm-up laps before the start of a scheduled race. Chase Johnson's car left the track at an undetermined speed and hit Wondergem and Johnson before it tipped on its side, sheriff's officials said.
The Yuba County Sheriff's Department and California Highway Patrol are investigating the cause of the crash. Investigators will conduct autopsies on the victims on Monday and Tuesday.
No one else was injured in the crash, and spectators were never in jeopardy, authorities said.
Marcus Johnson's father, Rob Johnson, told KPIX-TV that his son was helping out in the pit when "something strange happened and the steering wheel came off ... this car flew probably 100 to 150 feet and hit him."
"Everybody's hurting. There's nothing we can do. This is terrible," the father tearfully said. He said his son and cousin were like best friends.
"He had so much to look forward to," the father said.
Don Johnson, who is the driver's father and victim's uncle, issued a statement Sunday on behalf of his family, thanking the racing community for their thoughts and prayers.
"Our family has suffered an unspeakable tragedy with the passing of our precious Marcus Johnson and Dale Wondergem. There are no words to express our sorrow. Our family has been racing for four generations and loves the sport that has now brought us so much pain," the statement said.
Messages left for the Marysville Raceway's spokesman and promoters were not immediately returned Sunday.
Chase Johnson of Penngrove is a senior at Petaluma High School north of San Francisco and is a fourth-generation race car driver, according to his website. He did not respond to an email seeking comment Sunday.
Johnson has been racing for three years at the Petaluma Speedway, where he's won multiple races and was last year's series champion. His father, grandfather and great-grandfather were also champion drivers in Petaluma, where the family owns a muffler shop, said Ron Lingron, the track announcer at Petaluma Speedway
"They're the first family of the Petaluma Speedway," Lingron said Sunday. "There's not a better kid you're going to find in the racing community than Chase Johnson. To have something like this put around his neck is a tragedy."
Steven Blakesley, a race announcer who was watching from the stands, said he thought Chase Johnson's car had a mechanical problem because he was driving about 90 mph and couldn't make a turn or slow down just before the crash.
"People getting hurt in the pits is extremely, extremely rare," Blakesley, who is the track announcer at Watsonville's Ocean Speedway, said Sunday. "I've never seen anything like this, and I don't know how you would even prevent it."
The sprint car circuit is seen as a stepping stone to higher levels like NASCAR and many drivers start racing as young as 15, as Johnson did, Blakesley said. Others on the circuit, where small, high-powered cars race on short dirt ovals, were older drivers whose careers had peaked earlier.
Two-time NASCAR Nationwide Series champion Ricky Stenhouse Jr. began his career in sprint cars at age 15. He said current hotshot NASCAR racer Kyle Larson was racing sprint cars around California at 12 years old.
"People who can afford to go race somewhere are going to find somewhere to race," Stenhouse said. "And the crews, the people in the pits, that's almost always your friends and your family. I read somewhere somebody said those people shouldn't have been in the pits. Well, this is how it's done. This is the way of life."

Sugar Ray Leonard & Tommy Hitman Hearns Media Round Table Quotes:
SUGAR RAY LEONARD, Seven-Time World Champion On Mayweather vs. Mosley: I see this fight as rather intriguing. I know a lot of people are leaning toward Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Most of the time fights dont live up to expectations. But fights like this, with Mosley and Mayweather, are highly anticipated. I truly believe that this fight here, these two guys will indeed live up to expectations, because whether they say it or not, it is about bragging rights. Yeah its about the money. Everyone wants the money, but for the guy who wins, its bragging rights.
I have yet to see him (Mayweather) hurt, knocked down or whatever. On the other hand I see Sugar Shane Mosley as a guy who could penetrate his impeccable defense. I had a premonition the other night and I saw a knockout by someone. I am not a guru, I am not a psychic, but I did see a knockout.
On Leonard vs. Hearns
I remember that time so vividly in my mind. It was a fight for the undisputed welterweight crown. I trained very very hard. This fight was very special because Tommys dominance in the division was just amazing in the way he just annihilated people. He didnt just knock guys out. He flattened guys. I guess I wasnt concerned about his punching. But at one point I recall, he hit me with a good shot, with a right hand, and I realized I could take a shot. Thats why I became more aggressive.
It was a fight of survival. Tommy brought the best out of me and I brought the best out of him. It was one of the fights that took me to the limit. It required every ounce of me physical, mentally, psychologically, and spiritually. It took all of those factors to beat Tommy Hearns.
This happened to be a decade, an era, where guys like Ali, Frazier, Hearns, and myself surfaced. It was just meant to be.
Thoughts on the fantasy match-up of Hearns vs. Mayweather
Tommy is a freak of nature for a welterweight. Hes big, strong, powerful, has a big heart, and I dont think anyone could beat Tommy Hearns
except me.
I dont see Mayweather-Mosley matching our fight. Its a fight thats been talked about for decades. I think it will be a great one though.
On Mayweather calling himself the best
For Mayweather to make that statement, fighters have to believe they are bigger and better than anyone.
On the state of boxing and the history of the sport
There is no comparison at all. Back in the day, fights were highly anticipated. There were more personalities. There were more superstars in boxing.
It bothers me that we dont have an American heavyweight champion. To me it is a dark period right now. Boxing is a resilient sport. The amateur foundation has diminished significantly. Amateur boxers are going to be champions years later, and there needs to be more support and sponsorships for the amateur programs.
Fear is an intricate part of my makeup but not fear in the way you define it. When I fought, it wasnt fear per se, it was concern. You want fear because thats what going to make you react to anticipated punches. There is a balancing act but fear is a thing you have to deal with.
TOMMY HITMAN HEARNS, Six-Time World Champion
On Mayweather vs. Mosley
Mayweather will try to dominate with slick punches. He may do well. Shane is going to try to test and see if Mayweather can take a shot. We have to see if he can. Shane has the ability to punch and Floyd will have to be smart and slick.
This is going to be a very good fight. I think it is going to be a very competitive fight. It is going to be a chess match.
I think Mayweather should do well with that style. I think Shane is going to try to test that and see how well he can get that shot in.
I dont see it being the same as me and Ray. We set the standard and its going to be tough to top what we did. I am proud to know Ray Leonard. Ray brought the best out of me and I think I brought the best out of him. Its going to be a great fight this Saturday night, but dont look for the same thing as happened in our fight. That was a different era.
Shane has the ability to punch, and I think Mayweather is going to have to watch out for that.
On Leonard vs. Hearns
As far as me and Ray Leonard, our fight was so huge that no one knew what the outcome would be.
Ray said he has never danced before. I know he danced a few times when we fought.
I believe in giving the fans what they paid to see. It wasnt about holding back or saving something for tomorrow or the next time. This is a moment. This is what you have to give them right now. You have to give your best
Knowing his ability, I had to learn how to do things with my hands up and my hands down. I just kept making it that much easier for me.
That was something that was meant to be. It wasnt something that we planned. The public wanted to see the match ups. You had to take on the next upcoming opponent. We werent able to pick and choose who we wanted to fight. We didnt duck anybody even though we wanted to. That is what made our era so important.
Thoughts on the fantasy match-up of Leonard vs. Mayweather
I think that Floyd would have been too small for us. We were big welterweights. Floyd is a small guy. I am not saying because he is small he wouldnt be able to do it, but it would have been very difficult. I think Ray knows more about that than I do.
On Mayweather calling himself the best
The confidence thing is fine with me. It is good for him to have a great deal of confidence. There shouldnt be anything Shane can do to bring him down.

- Carrot Top, stand-up comedian and star of Carrot Top at Luxor Las Vegas
I have to go with Mayweather on this one
Because Money can buy Sugar, but Sugar cant buy Money.
- Terry Fator, ventriloquist and star of Terry Fator: Ventriloquism in Concert at The Mirage ® Las Vegas
Pretty Boy Floyd wins! Mayweather is a great boxer with amazing defensive skills and the ability to hurt guys in bunches. He likes to hang on the ropes luring opponents to make them punch themselves out so he can capitalize on their fatigue and mistakes. Hes a crafty boy with superior footwork. Floyd is a warrior besides even being aesthetically
- Angelica Bridges, actress and star of Fantasy at Luxor Las Vegas
I am a fan of BOTH of these amazing fighters, but in boxing, there can only be ONE TRUE winner. So if I had to bet the farm on it
Pretty Boy Floyd Mayweather is going to win. Sorry Sugar, but not this time.
- Tichina Arnold, actress, Everybody Hates Chris
Im going with Money Mayweather in 12!
- DJ Drama, critically acclaimed Hip-Hop DJ
I give the edge to Mayweather. How can I not based on his unblemished record? Mayweather is the man to beat and if there were any fighters that I thought had a chance to beat Floyd Mayweather, one would be Shane Mosley. We will find out on May 1st. One thing I personally know is that Shane has to become Sugar again to become victorious. Intriguing fight.
- Sugar Ray Leonard, Seven-Time World Champion
This fight will be a real welterweight contest. Mosley can win if he is capable of closing Floyds [Mayweather] exits and using his speed along with his power.
- Juan Manuel Dinamita Marquez, WBA, WBO and The Ring Magazine Lightweight World Champion
Im for Shane Mosley
He must do the right preparation. If he does, then he has a very good chance against Mayweather.
- Manny Pac-Man Pacquiao, WBO Welterweight World Champion
I think its a 50-50 fight. Its the most dangerous fight Mayweather has ever had. Mosley could upset him, but I think it will be close.
- Joe The Pride of Wales Calzaghe, former WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO and The Ring Magazine Super Middleweight Champion
Floyd Mayweather and Shane Mosley are my two favorite modern day warriors, who Ive studied in-depth over the years. Both fighters are guaranteed to go down in history as Greats as theyve fought and beaten great World Champions in many different weight divisions. This fight will be a very tense and competitive contest from the start, similar to the De La Hoya-Mayweather fight, but the difference I feel will be that Mosley will push hard down the final straight. This fight can go either way, but I edge towards Mosley. If theres anyone on the planet with the tools and experience to beat the pound-for-pound King Floyd Money Mayweather, Sugar Shane Mosley will be the man.
- David The Haymaker Haye, WBA Heavyweight World Champion, former Unified WBA, WBC, WBO and The Ring Magazine Cruiserweight World Champion
I think its going to be a good fight, but its a pickem fight for me. I dont know. They both have a chance.
- Ronald Winky Wright, former Undisputed Junior Middleweight World Champion
I think its going to be a great fight. Im picking Mosley in the early rounds but in the end, Mayweather will take the decision.
- Juan Baby Bull Diaz, former Unified WBA, IBF and Lightweight World Champion
I believe Shane will impose his strength and speed in the early rounds, but after the first few rounds Floyd will adapt and figure Shane out, and start picking his shots as the fight goes on and Shane starts to slow down. Mayweather will win by decision.
- Andre The Beast Berto, WBC Welterweight Champion
I want Mosley to win but I think by the 6th round Mayweathers talent will start taking over anything Mosley has to offer. Mayweather wins a unanimous decision in a typical Mayweather fight.
- Sergio The Latin Snake Mora, former WBC Junior Middleweight Worldd Champion
It will be a very competitive fight. Mosley will press the action, but Mayweather will use his defense to out-box him. Many people want Mayweather to lose because of his personality, but no one can take it away from Mayweather that he is, pound for pound, one of the best fighters in history. It will be close, but Mayweather will win.
- Sergio Maravilla Martinez, WBC Junior Middleweight World Champion and WBC and WBO Middleweight World Champion
Its a close fight to call, but I pick Floyd in a competitive fight. Hes had the ability to get up for the biggest moments of his career and this will be no different.
- Paulie Magic Man Malignaggi, NABO Junior Welterweight Champion and former IBF Junior Welterweight World Champion
I believe Mosley is going to get the victory. Shane has the talent and skills to beat Mayweather.
- Saul Canelo Alvarez, WBC Youth Welterweight World Champion
I strongly believe Floyd has a lot of talent, but Mosley is so strong and still has a lot of speed, so it will not be a surprise if he wins.
- Israel Magnifico Vazquez, former Three-Time World Champion
Im picking Mayweather by decision, but he wont knock Mosley out.
- Fernando The Aztec Warrior Vargas, former WBA and IBF Junior Middleweight Champion
I think Mayweather is going to win by close decision, but Im pulling for Mosley.
- Ricardo Rocky Juarez, Junior Lightweight contender
Its going to come down to whoevers got the best strategy. Thats the guy who will take the other guy out. Mosleys bigger, but has good speed. Well see how Shane is going to press Floyd, and how Floyd is going to press Shane. How they adapt to each other is going to be the difference. Shane is definitely Floyds biggest test. I couldnt tell you whod win. Id pick it a draw. I really dont care who wins, but I want the winner either way.
- Paul The Punisher Williams, former Two-Time Welterweight World Champion
Shanes my friend and I hope he wins, but he has trouble with speed and movement and likes guys to come to him so its going to be difficult.
- Freddie Roach, Trainer of Manny Pacquiao and Amir Khan
This is a very interesting fight. Mayweather will have his toughest fight yet against Mosley, who came up the ranks and fought every tough Mexican. When Mayweather covers up and brings his right hand up, Mosley is going to hit him with left hooks to the liver. Hell go under the elbow. This is a tough, tough fight, and a great fight. Im looking forward to it. Mayweather is going to really have to hustle because Mosley is at the top of this game. Mayweather has to fight his best fight ever, because Mosleys stronger, more mature than anyone Mayweather has ever faced. While Mayweather is truly a one of a kind fighter, I would have to give the edge to Mosley by decision.
- Angelo Dundee, Hall of Fame Trainer of Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard and George Foreman
I like Floyd in this one. If it was 3 years ago I would have said Shane, but styles make fights and I just think that at this point in time Floyds style is going to give Shane problems. Margarito stands in front of you, and Mosley just hit him up. I have to go with Floyd. He makes adjustments very well and once he makes that adjustment it could be a boring fight. Mosley is saying hes going to knock Floyd out. Floyd rises to the occasion. The better his opponent is, the better Floyd is. Shane has a shot, dont get me wrong, and Floyd has to be on his ps and qs all night. But Im picking Floyd in a decision.
- Buddy McGirt, Trainer of Arturo Gatti and Antonio Tarver
I think Floyd Mayweather is going to win. I think hes too good of a counterpuncher for Shane Mosley. Shane is going to have to make the fight and thats going to play into Floyds hands. Mosley is a really good fighter, but watching his last few fights, I just dont think he can keep up with Mayweather. Hes not going to be able to keep up the pace that can stop Floyd from throwing punches. I think Mosley will have a good first four rounds, but then Floyd will take over after that. Mosleys got a shot, but if he tries to box Floyd, Floyd will dominate early. His best shot is to jump on Floyd and dominate early, and hurt him. If he tries to come out and make it a slow pace hes in trouble. He has to come out and hurt Floyd, but I dont see him doing that. I pick Mayweather in a wide decision.
- Ronnie Shields, Trainer of Tomasz Adamek, Evander Holyfield, Mike Tyson and Juan Diaz
Im picking Shane Mosley. I think he will stop Mayweather. Mayweather hasnt had the competition that Shane has. Mayweather always had the advantages. He never went into an even fight. Mosley has the knowledge, ring generalship, speed, power and just the ability in general that will lead to a win. Mayweather has been cherry picking and not challenging anyone. Mosley by knockout. No doubt about it.
- George Peterson, Trainer of Paul Williams
Magic votes for Floyd all the way!
- Magic Johnson, Five-Time NBA Champion, Three-Time NBA MVP, Twelve-Time NBA All-Star, Three-Time NBA Finals MVP
Mayweather in a decision. He [Mayweather] is a smaller guy who can dance. Mosley cant let him hit him.
- Charles Barkley, 11-Time NBA All-Star and TNT/NBA TV basketball analyst
Mayweather in a unanimous decision. Mayweather will knock down Shane once but Mosley will be his toughest fight to date. Mayweather is the best boxer this world has seen in 20 years so hell win.
- Chris Webber, Five-Time NBA All-Star and TNT/NBA TV basketball analyst
Mayweather KO in the 9th. He is in his prime and blazing it right now. I see his strength, speed and endurance being just too much for Mosley. Mayweather is a beast!
- Caron Butler, Two-Time NBA All-Star Forward, Dallas Mavericks
Shane has a great chance. I will predict a victory. He has a great chin, and hes the type of fighter who can give Floyd problems, with the pressure and the discipline, and he still has the quickness. So its going to be a great fight.
- LaDainian Tomlinson, Five-Time NFL Pro Bowler, 2006 NFL MVP, Running Back, New York Jets
I need to hold one of them belts and walk in the ring with Money May on May 1st. No way I am missing this one.
- Chad Ochocinco, Six-Time NFL Pro Bowler, Wide Receiver, Cincinnati Bengals
I want Mosley to win but I really have no clue. Floyd is a badass and will be tough to beat.
- Jared Allen, Three-Time NFL Pro Bowler, Defensive End, Minnesota Vikings
Money Mayweather is going to get Mosley in the 10th round by TKO. Mayweathers the best fighter around right now, at least until someone can prove otherwise by beating him.
- Shawne Merriman, Three-Time NFL Pro Bowler, 2005 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year, Linebacker, San Diego Chargers
I think that Mayweather is going to win in eight rounds. Mayweather is 40-0 for a reason. Hes got youth behind him and hes just too quick for Mosley.
- Patrick Willis, Two-Time NFL Pro-Bowler, 2007 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year, Linebacker, San Francisco 49ers
I think Mayweathers going to win versus Mosley. Floyd is way more athletic and technically sound than anyone else in boxing right now.
- Kellen Winslow II, NFL Pro-Bowler, Tight End, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Im picking Money Mayweather. I say he gets unanimous decision but it goes full length.
- Ryan Grant, Running Back, Green Bay Packers
Im calling a 7th round knockout and Mayweather wins
- Shaun Phillips, Defensive End, San Diego Chargers
I like Sugar Shane in a split decision. Floyd probably is the better talent, but that only gets you so far. Shane WANTS this more, and at 39, and 5 losses, hes fighting for redemption!
- Tiki Barber, Three-Time NFL Pro-Bowler, Former New York Giants Running Back
I think Floyd will win based on his speed, his ability not to get hit and how he counter-punches. Also his ability to fight any style, but I think this going to be his toughest fight to date.
- John Starks, NBA All-Star, Former New York Knicks Guard
Mayweather is the master of not getting hit. His quickness and defense will be too much for Shane to match.
- B.J. Upton, Center Fielder, Tampa Bay Rays
Shane Mosley will win, because Orlando Hudson picked Mayweather and he also picked Roy Jones in the last fight and was way off!
- Justin Morneau, Three-Time MLB All-Star, First Baseman, Minnesota Twins
Mosley. Hes got the power, the size and the reach.
- Gordon Beckham, Second Baseman, Chicago White Sox
Mayweather will take it. Hes undefeated so he must be doing something right.
- Justin Verlander, Two-Time MLB All-Star, Pitcher, Detroit Tigers
Money Mayweather is winning this fight. He is the Muhammad Ali of our generation. His swagger, his demeanor - Mayweather has it all. I think the fight will go the whole way, and I think he just beats him [Mosley] up throughout the fight. It will go to a decision, but Mayweather will outclass him because he is the real deal.
- Santino Quaranta, Midfielder/Striker, DC United

During an interview, Sunny Leone admitted that she in not at all ashamed of her past, being a porn actor. Sunny is an Indo-Canadian porn star, who was named Penthouse Pet of the Year in 2003 and was a contract star for Vivid Entertainment.
Talking to a leading daily, Leone said that had it not been her past, she wouldn't have become who she is today. It was because of her past that she had moved to India. "If it wasn't for my past, I would not be who I am. I am not ashamed of it because it has brought me here to India. If I came here as regular me with no entertainment experience then I would not be as popular as I am today with the public," Leone told the leading daily.
