Today's increasingly complex SoCs are typically used in portable systems that must also support increasingly longer battery life and therefore must minimize power consumption. Even non-portable systems must avoid wasting energy, to minimize both power and cooling costs. In both cases, active power management is required to ensure energy efficiency. Although active power management enables the design of low power chips and systems, it also creates many new verification challenges. This course introduces the IEEE Std 1801 Unified Power Format (UPF) for specification of active power management architectures and covers the use of UPF in simulation-based power aware verification.
You are encouraged to first view Evolving Verification Capabilities by Harry Foster that provides the framework for all of the Academy courses.

Lifting points on a C&C
Since i am new at this: are there any resources on where to safely put the lifting straps for a boat lift on a C&C 32?
We have to put her up on the hard for winter in a few weeks and I want to know what to tell the marina boat-lift person.
"where to safely put the lifting straps"
There probably is some documentation somewhere. But in recent years more boaters have been getting unabashed enough to follow aircraft procedures, i.e. to have stickers or painted labels on each rail that say "LIFT POINT" or "NO LIFT" at the proper points for the lifting straps, and the points where a strap would ruin the prop shaft or something else.
Makes it a lot harder for a casual "oops" to happen on a lift. (Assuming they hired help that knows how to read and isn't afraid to do it.)
Basically you want to have the slings where there is lots of support for the hull on a bulkhead and where it balances. Typically the forward bulkhead and the one at the aft end of the cabin.
Have fun.
What Gary said, and just make sure that the straps won't land on the prop shaft or the speedo impeller if that isn't removed/retracted.
A profile drawing of the C&C 32 like that available here:
C&C 32 - Used Sailboat Market in Canada
should be helpful. Looks like in line with the forward hatch (keeping impeller location in mind) and at the aft end of the cabin house should work for you.
1 Attachment(s)
Mine is a slightly different boat (C&C 30 Mk2 1987), but here is the diagram I have in my owner's manual. I got the pdf for the manual through the C&C photo album web site: C&C Yachts - C&C Photo Album & Resource Center I have seen the C&C 32 is also available and will likely contain such diagram.
Now, when my boat was moved in the spring, I noticed that the front and back sling where not tied with a rope. They both stayed in place and all was good, but after seeing this diagram from C & C, it got me thinking if it should be standard procedure to tie those slings together...

Attempts to boost students' self-esteem by praising minor achievements and effort has not improved academic achievements, researchers say. Some teachers say they are abandoning unearned praise in favor of methods that reward "persistence" and "risk-taking." Some experts say this type of praise leads students to embrace challenges and work harder.

Divers find man's body near crash
Golden Gate Estates resident's body the last of 4 recovered after deadly boat wreck near Marco
Divers discovered the body of a missing 20-year-old Golden Gate Estates man Monday afternoon while searching near the site of Saturday's deadly boat crash off Big Marco Pass near Marco Island.
The body of James Molter, 15095 Summit Place Circle, was discovered at 1:33 p.m. close to where the crash occurred, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission spokeswoman Dani Moschella said. The FWC is the lead agency in the investigation of the crash.
"It was basically at the crash scene underwater," Moschella said. "Any time you do searches in water it's difficult. ... I understand the water conditions were somewhat murky during the first search. It's common for divers to miss something, which is why they went down again in the same place.
"It's kind of that needle in the haystack phenomenon."
The body was taken to the sheriff's substation on Marco Island and transported to the Collier County Medical Examiner's Office. Moschella said she could not confirm a report that Molter's body showed signs of trauma when it was found.
The FWC won't know whether the impact of the accident or drowning was the cause of death until the examiner's office releases the autopsy report. Moschella said she believed that autopsies had been performed on Linda Molter, 42, her daughter Meagan, 22, and Meagan's fiancé, Harper Simpson II, 31, who died in the crash around sunset Saturday.

- RELATED: Marco boating accident victims identified (01-07-07)
- RELATED: At least 3 dead in Marco boat wreck (01-06-07)
The reports will go directly to the FWC, but investigators at the agency might not get the reports for weeks, according to Moschella. She said that the examiner's office is performing toxicology tests on the bodies for any traces of drugs or alcohol.
"We don't know if alcohol played a part in this crash," Moschella said. "That will be part of the medical examination. Toxicology reports can take weeks to come back."
Alan Molter, the father of James and Meagan, and the husband of Linda Molter, was not home on Monday evening for comment. Neither were the parents of Harper Simpson II. A woman who answered the door said Simpson's parents were busy making funeral arrangements, but provided a prepared statement, which she said was from both families.
"The Simpson family and Molter family would like to express our gratitude for the outpouring of love and prayers during our time of great loss. Harper Jay Simpson II, his fiancée, Meagan Molter, and other family members of Meagan's family were on the boat, enjoying a fun afternoon of family togetherness. We have limited knowledge of the accident at this time. Hopefully, questions concerning this tragic accident will be answered with the ongoing investigation. We ask that the media please respect the privacy of the families and friends that are mourning. Funeral arrangements will be announced as soon as possible," the statement read.
Simpson's parents work at the Collier County Health Department where the atmosphere was grief stricken Monday, said Deb Millsap, spokeswoman for the department. Meagan Molter also worked at the hospital.
Simpson's father, also Harper Simpson, works in planning for disaster and terrorism response and his mother, Phyllis Simpson, works in the environmental health office in food safety inspection. Molter was a pool safety inspector.
"It's just grief everywhere," Millsap said, adding that the health department and its employees have always been like a family. "It's very sad. The couple was well loved and (so was) the family. It's pretty tough."
The family members died when the boat they were riding in, a 1994 Powerplay, flew into the air, slammed back into the water and broke apart, a Collier County sheriff's official said. The boat was traveling straight and at a high rate of speed when the crash occurred, Moschella said.
Jennifer Molter, 16, also of Summit Place Circle, was the only person on the boat to survive the crash. She was pulled from the water by fishermen and transported to NCH Healthcare System's Downtown Naples Hospital.
"It's a miracle that this girl survived with hardly a scratch," Moschella said. "I guess it just wasn't her time."
Alan Molter said Sunday that Simpson purchased the 33-foot boat about three weeks ago. He also said he noticed a stress crack on the boat, but wasn't sure if the crack was there before Simpson bought the boat.
Attempts to locate the boat's previous owner were unsuccessful Monday.
"As for stress cracks, that's common in older boats," Moschella said. "It happens. It doesn't necessarily mean that that crack caused the crash."
Mike Cozza, the manager of the DeVoe Collision Center where Simpson had worked for about seven years as an autobody employee, said Monday was a hard day for everybody at work. He described Simpson as a fun person who was close to all of his co-workers.
"We're devastated by it," Cozza said. "To see the place where he normally works empty, it's tough. It's a constant reminder that he's not with us any longer."
Cozza said he didn't know where Simpson bought the boat.
"He just recently got it and was really excited about it," he said.
The investigation into the cause of the crash will continue as investigators continue analyzing the remains of the boat, interview witnesses and talk to experts, Moschella said. Divers on Monday also discovered a section of the hull of the boat, she said.
"Every piece of that boat is important to our investigation," Moschella said. "They're going over the pieces inch by inch. ... It will help answer the questions we have about this crash. Every scenario, every possibility, they're considering."
In the accident's wake, officials emphasized the need for boaters to wear life jackets. None of the five people aboard the broken vessel was wearing life jackets, Moschella said.
Staff writers Denise Zoldan and Liz Freeman contributed to this report.

Detective Chief Superintendent John Carnochan spoke to over 120 nursery owners, managers and staff from across Scotland about how vital the early years are in shaping a person's future, and how investment in a child's formative years can help prevent violence in later years.
The event, one of many events held by NDNA each year throughout the UK, gave attendees a chance to meet other nursery owners, discuss best practice and hear from key people in the early years sector.
Other speakers at the event included Kate Cherry, Assistant Chief Inspector, Education Scotland; Paul Johnstone, Inspector Manager for Care Inspectorate;
Purnima Tanuku OBE, Chief Executive of NDNA, said: "NDNA member events are a wonderful opportunity for owners, managers and staff from our member nurseries to come together, share their knowledge and create networks, ultimately leading to better quality provision and stronger links between nurseries.
"Our recent Scotland event was a great success and those who attended were particularly inspired by Detective Chief Superintendent John Carnochan who spoke about the work of the Violence Reduction Unit, highlighting how crucial the early years are to development and how intervention at an early stage can help to steer children away from violence.
"This issue is particularly pertinent given the recent government report which found that certain behaviours in children as young as three, such as aggression and slow development, can identify them as at risk of problems in later years."
John Carnochan will appear as a guest speaker at the NDNA essential nursery conference at Edgbaston Stadium, Birmingham, on Thursday 21 and Friday 22 June 2012.

Case Study: Marshall Dennehey Warner Coleman & Goggin
EVault's EVault Software Saves the Day for Regional Law Firm
In a law firm, digital content is the lifeblood of the organization. For each case, countless documents and emails exist and in most cases are meticulously filed according to matter so that they are accessible at the drop of a hat.
In order to ensure that this critical information is available quickly in the event of an outage or disaster, firms must have sophisticated redundancy plans in place in the form of IT design, hardware, software and processes. At Marshall, Dennehey, Warner, Coleman & Goggin, a regional legal defense firm headquartered in Philadelphia with 19 offices and close to 1,000 employees, thoughtful planning, best-of-breed hardware and software products, and a well-prepared technical team allowed the firm to avert what could have been a true productivity crisis for two of its offices.
The Value of Planning
During the firm's project planning phase, Director of IT Liz Brown, and Manager of Network Services, John Brooks, were savvy enough to invest significant time and budget to prepare for the unexpected. After investigating the market options for new data backup technology, the firm chose EVault Software, a disk-to-disk backup and disaster recovery product by EVault, A Seagate Company. The product was initially proposed by Adaptive Solutions, the firm's go-to technology partner. The technical team architected a wide-ranging solution that would incorporate redundancy software, enterprise storage systems and critical processes for dealing with an outage or disaster.
Marshall Dennehey's network engineers configured EVault agents on each server to backup files and SQL databases nightly, across the firm's (19) offices. Using EVault's source-side deduplication, the agent scans for and backs up only new and modified files from the previous backup. Those changes are then compressed and encrypted before sending the data to the main vault at the firm's main headquarters. Then, as an added precaution, the aggregate data was also replicated to the firm's suburban Philadelphia location using storage arrays and built-in replication technology. The design and software would prove to be critical components during the firm's recovery of data due to a fire at one of it's offices.
The Backup Plan in Motion
On a recent Sunday afternoon, Brown received word that a fire caused by two main electrical feeds had started in one of Marshall Dennehey's two New York City offices. The firm's office on the 19th floor had not been directly damaged, but because of the electrical origin of the fire, the building was locked down, and the firm was unable to enter the building to retrieve the office's servers, which housed critical documents and SQL databases for both of its New York offices.
Marshall Dennehey's IT team and firm leadership sprung into action. The goal was to use EVault Software to recover the New York server files and SQL databases to minimize any workflow interruptions for the attorneys and staff who would ordinarily report to the New York City offices.
Using the backup data collected by EVault Software, the team was able to restore data within an hour from the firm's secondary vault in Philadelphia. A Marshall Dennehey developer quickly created a small SQL database that would allow the IT department to search for critical documents on an as-needed basis, (i.e., for an attorney or staff member who needed a particular file immediately), prior to complete accessibility to the data. This allowed the IT engineers to continue working on the recovery of data and other critical components, while attorneys and staff who were in need of a particular file could simply request the document, and the IT team was able to retrieve it from the SQL database within minutes.
By Monday afternoon, Brown and her IT squad were notified they were able to get into the New York office for the sole purpose of retrieving the firm's servers. The servers were retrieved and deployed into the Philadelphia office, allowing New York employees to connect and work remotely with full access to their electronic workspaces and files.
Saving Money, Time, and Client Relations
Although two weeks would pass before the displaced New York attorneys and staff could get back into their space, the firm experienced no true work interruption and therefore no client dissatisfaction or decrease in productivity due to the fire. With the combined Marshall Dennehey- Adaptive Solutions IT design, data aggregated by the reliable EVault backup system, Dell hardware, and the firm's quick-moving IT and leadership teams, the Marshall Dennehey disaster recovery system proved to be a smart investment, saving the firm untold amounts of time and money, and helping the firm maintain its first-rate client relationships.

They burst firecrackers and distributed sweets in Mangalore and Puttur
The Bharatiya Janata Party activists and admirers of party leader D.V. Sadananda Gowda distributed sweets and burst firecrackers in Mangalore and Puttur after he became the first Chief Minister from Dakshina Kannada after the district was split.
Party workers carrying the party flags and holding the portraits of Mr. Gowda danced in front of the party offices in Mangalore and Puttur. Crackers were burst near Puttur bus stand also. Though the family of Mr. Gowda resides in Puttur, their house in the town wore a deserted look as family members were away in Bangalore. Mr. Gowda, presently the Udupi MP, had earlier represented Dakshina Kannada in Lok Sabha and was a two-time MLA from Puttur constituency.
The party office in Mangalore started bustling as the news of Mr. Gowda's victory poured in. Party workers quickly began distributing laddus. Braving the rains, they trouped outside the premises and burst crackers and launched themselves in a spontaneous dance. They expressed happiness that the week-long political activity had ended with the selection of a man from Dakshina Kannada for the top job. They also raised slogans in favour of the party and Mr. Gowda.
Among those present at the party office in Mangalore were party's district president K. Padmanabha Kottari, former president K. Monappa Bhandary, city unit president Srikhar Prabhu, zilla panchayat president K.T. Shailaja Bhat, and Deputy Mayor Geetha Nayak.
Welcoming the election of Mr. Gowda spokesperson of district unit of the BJP K. Monappa Bhandary said that he was an able leader.
He had built the party at the State level when he was heading the State unit for two terms. Mr. Gowda was the first Chief Minister of Dakshina Kannada after Udupi was carved out of it. Mr. Bhandary said that the party expected overall development of the district under Mr. Gowda's leadership.
The party would press for additional grant to Mangalore City Corporation for infrastructure development works in addition to the second instalment of Rs. 100 crore sanctioned by outgoing Chief Minister B. S. Yeddyurappa.
B. Ramanatha Rai, Bantwal MLA and president of the district unit of the Congress, said that if Mr. Gowda worked under the guidance of Mr. Yeddyurappa he would spoil himself.
Mr. Rai said he was not sure if the party would allow Mr. Gowda to continue as the Chief Minister for more than six months.
He said that if Mr. Gowda worked as the remote-controlled Chief Minister it would not be a great help for the State.
M. G. Hegde, spokesperson, district unit of the Janata Dal (Secular) and general secretary of the State unit, said that he doubted whether the BJP would allow Mr. Gowda to complete two-year term as the Chief Minister.
If infighting within the BJP continued Mr. Gowda would not be able to work independently.
He expected that Dakshina Kannada would witness some development under the leadership of Mr. Gowda.
Keywords: Sadananda Gowda, Dakshina Kannada

Tarte Flambée With Summer Squash Recipe
Jul 12, 2014 3:59 pm
A savory summer tart packed with seasonal squash
If there's one simple French dish you master, let it be tarte flambée. This traditional Alsatian recipe from Chef Michael Toscano of New York City's Montmartre restaurant features crispy bits of fatty bacon called lardons, plus sweet, seasonal summer squash, caramelized onions and tangy crème fraîche. It's a savory treat not to be missed.
Says the chef, "The tarte flambée is a blank canvas for amazing summer vegetables. It's a total crowd pleaser that's great for snacking on at a picnic or party."
In New York this weekend? Don't miss La Fête Montmartre, a Bastille party where you just might find a great tarte.
Servings: 4
3/4 teaspoon dry yeast
1/2 teaspoon sugar
3/4 cup all-purpose flour, plus a little more for dusting
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
pinch of salt
extra virgin olive oil
3 large Spanish onions, thinly sliced
kosher salt
1/2 cup creme fraiche
1/2 cup fromage blanc
1 bunch fresh chives, finely chopped
For the dough:
- Activate the yeast by combining the 105°F water, yeast and sugar. Stir together and let sit until the mixture becomes frothy, about 10 minutes.
- Put the flour in a mixing bowl and make a well in the center.
- Add the olive oil, salt and the activated yeast mixture. Stir until the dough comes together and forms a ball.
- Dust a clean work surface with flour and knead the dough until it is tight and firm, 7 minutes.
- Place the dough back in the mixing bowl, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let sit in a warm place until the dough has doubled in size, about 1 hour.
For assembly:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Place the bacon in a large, wide pan and give it a couple drops of olive oil.
- Bring the pan to a medium heat and cook the bacon until it is brown and crispy.
- Remove the bacon from the pan and reserve on paper towels.
- Add the onions to the pan, season with salt, cover and cook until the onions have wilted and are very soft, about 10 minutes.
- Remove the lid and cook the onions until they are very soft and caramelized. This will take awhile, maybe up to 45 minutes. Stir the onions occasionally paying attention not to let them burn.
- When the onions are deep brown, remove them from the heat and reserve.
- Combine the creme fraiche and fromage blanc.
- Divide the dough into 4 even balls and roll them out until they are 1/8-inch thick.
- Place them on a sheet tray and bake them in the oven for 4 minutes.
- Remove the dough from the oven. Schmear each dough evenly with the cheese mixture, place an even layer of sliced squash & caramelized onions on the cheese and sprinkle the bacon on top of the onions.
- Return the assembled tartes to the oven until the dough is crisp on the bottom and the toppings are bubbly, 8 minutes. Sprinkle with chives and serve.

For Shrimp Skewers
Peel and de-vein shrimp, leaving tails on or off, and place shrimp in sealed bag. Place other ingredients in small food processor and pulse/mix until it just comes together. Remove marinade and mix well with shrimp. Leave to marinate in fridge for 1 hour. Turn on grill to med-high and when ready grill shrimp on both sides for a few minutes until center is opaque. Grab some bamboo skewers, put some shrimp on the end and have fun dipping them into the parmesan grits!
For Creamy Parmesan Grits
In a medium saucepan, bring water to boil. Add the salt, then whisk in the grits in a slow, steady stream, whisking constantly to prevent clumps and thoroughly mix in the grits. Bring to a boil while whisking, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Stir occasionally with a wooden spoon until grits are thickened and tender. When finished cooking, add the butter and parmesan, stir until well combined, then add salt and pepper as desired. Remember to add a little salt and pepper -- you can always add more, but you cannot take away.

The ASX All Ords came out of the blocks fast today, then lost steam, then drifted. There was some lively trade early in some small cap miners, with Botswana Metals adding 14.3% with over 6 million shares traded.
Individual one metre intercepts were up to 25.4% zinc, 23.5% lead, 7.34% copper and 404g/t silver. What is significant is that Jervois now has lead and zinc intersections coming from two new areas. A resource upgrade including 20,000 metres of data is expected in July 2015.
Up to four rigs will drill an 8200 metre program at Maibele North. The program is designed to evaluate the economic potential of the ore, which could be processed through the existing BCL smelter. This would generate cash flows.
The new funds will enable an accelerated exploration of the company's highly prospective Zuleika shear gold projects in Western Australia.
Lofin-2 tests gas at up to 17.8mmcfpd from the Manusela limestone, and results support a gas column of at least 1106 metres, and up to 1300 metres. The results not only extended the proven gas column but also provide valuable geological and engineering data.
Greenland Minerals and Energy is positioned to become a critical rare earth producer of international significance.
Dr John Mair, managing director, speaks exclusively to Proactive Investors.
A DFS is underway for Panda Hill, one of the most viable undeveloped niobium projects worldwide. The DFS is expected in Q4 2015.
Register today for Proactive's Sydney, Melbourne Investor Luncheons in June to hear more.
Shareholders have approved the placement of up to 250 million shares to fund ongoing development of its Australian Commodities Division. Proceeds will also be used to evaluate and assess its exploration assets in Gabon.
Listing on the NYSE-MKT, Peninsula will gain access to the world's largest capital market and fund managers and increased liquidity. This should see an increase in the company's market valuation as it draws closer to starting uranium production at its Lance In-Situ Recovery Projects in Wyoming this year.
Drilling will test at least seven high value targets selected by Newexco. Any of these targets could deliver a major discovery, confirming the potential of the East Laverton Project as a large scale nickel sulphide camp.
Completion of the DFS and mine permitting are the key near-term milestones for the company on the path to potentially transitioning the Batangas project into a cashflow generating producer.
A completed BFS confirmed the world-class scale of the Citronen project, which aims to tap into the looming zinc shortage caused by major zinc mine closures. Greenland has a zinc mining history and is supportive of mining.

Science - Colin Tudge says Jeremy Paxman may be a smarty-pants, but he is also ignorant
Science - Colin Tudge says Jeremy Paxman may be a smarty-pants, but he is also ignorant
by Colin Tudge Published
Radio 4's Start the Week: Jeremy Paxman is giving the Dutch primatologist Frans de Waal a hard time. De Waal is in Britain to plug The Ape and the Sushi Master, in which he probes the animal origins of human culture. "Choof!" says Paxman. "It just depends on how you define culture." There, the conversation founders. De Waal, the successor to the great Niko Tinbergen, is one of the most significant thinkers of our age. Paxman read "arts" at Cambridge; he is a clever fellow, a fully paid-up smarty-pants. But he prompts me yet again to wonder how and why Britain's most exalted universities manage to turn out, at such egregious expense, people who are so closed-minded and, in the end, so badly educated.
Paxman was trained in the school of Humpty Dumpty, and "culture", he says, can mean anything you want it to. It could, for example, refer simply to the sum total of non-essentials. But "non-essentials" are hard to pin down. Skylarks may sing as blithely as Shelley suggested - but they do so to attract mates; and Geoffrey Miller argues, in The Mating Mind, that even the finest of human arts have similar origins. More to the point, says de Waal, is that culture should not be defined by its content. Its essence is the spreading of ideas, from the innovator to his or her peers and offspring, and so on into future generations until two different societies of the same kind of creature are behaving in quite distinct ways. Even wolves and sheep evolve their own modi operandi of the kind known as "traditions". But many primates innovate and copy on a grand scale, so that two chimp groups, for example, though both true to chimp-dom, may run their affairs quite differently. The differences, by any sensible definition, are cultural.
Why is Paxman, like most westerners, so averse to animal parallels? The Old Testament got us off to a bad start with the notion that we alone are in "God's image" and that all other creatures are for our convenience. The Enlightenment deepened the rift, with Descartes concluding that speech is essential for thought, and that, ergo, animals cannot think and, ergo, they are automatons, like the clockwork mannequins that were so popular in his own day. Yet behind this cavalier philosophising lies something close to neurosis - conceit, but also fear of our animal selves. Eastern philosophies, in general, have no such reservations, says de Waal. The realisation that individual monkeys and apes have very different characters - personalities - which influence the fate of their entire groups emanates from the great Japanese primatologist Kinji Imanishi. Until Jane Goodall came along, western scientists missed this completely.
The belief that animals are automatons has sanctioned the appalling cruelties of the laboratory and the factory farm. Animal conservation suffers as well: many non-biologists write off those who take it seriously as "bunny-huggers". By misconstruing animals, we miss huge opportunities to learn about ourselves. Biologists now agree that Descartes was wrong: animals do think; and, by asking how they do so even without speech, we learn about the true nature of thought - vital to therapists, educationists and surely to all of us. It is clear, too, to those who realise that science has advanced since the days of Herbert Spencer, that the ideas of evolution offer insight into human emotions, our relations to each other, the roots of morality, and why nasty people such as Slobodan Milosevic get to be in charge of nice people. These kinds of insight are gained in large measure through the studies of biologists, such as de Waal, who look at animals.
More broadly, the Enlightenment conceit that humans live on an elevated plane has led people to treat all nature as a tabula rasa, a stage on which to act out any fantasy. Notably, agriculture now does most to shape landscape and to determine the fate of all living creatures, and so is a giant and endlessly intricate exercise in ecology. But ecologists hardly get a look-in. Agriculture is run by "agriculturalists", who are either technologists or economists, or "arts-trained" people who, like Paxman, are brought up to believe that nature is raw material that we can mould as we please (with the help of hired hands known as "boffins"). The biological dimension is lacking, and the result is as we see: cruelty, erosion, pollution, loss of wildlife.
Broadest of all, anyone with an inkling of palaeontology knows that this earth can take many forms, with ice or tropics pole to pole; that change can come quickly; and that, when it does, entire suites of creatures disappear. Anyone even half aware must see that the pending greenhouse effect is the greatest single threat of our age, and that George W Bush is mentally bereft, or deranged, or just plain wicked. But although most people don't like him, he gets away with it. Intelligent people who are not wicked should be up in arms, but modern-day education has sapped their brains. Like Paxman, they just cannot bring themselves to believe that the conceits of mere biologists should be taken seriously.
"Education, education, education," said Tony Blair, and by God he was right. And let a hundred flowers bloom: long may the ancient universities do their own things. But the world is a serious place and, whatever else they may do, serious places of education really ought to teach things that matter. Because they do not, we now have people in power and shaping public opinions who, for all their portentousness and abrasiveness, are effete: whether bright like Paxman or daft like Bush, they have been systematically divorced from reality. That's a pity, and it is dangerous.

Ko Olina developer Jeff Stone is quoted in the Honolulu Advertiser stating that the Walt Disney Company will spend $1 billion dollars on the resort complex they recently announced."This is an incredible feat for the state," said Stone. Disney is not only one of the largest companies in the world, it is the single largest entertainment company with 132,000 employees and grosses more than $35 billion annually.
"They have decided to come to Hawaii and spend what will amount to about a billion dollars to build the grandest resort in the world not a theme park," he said. "There won't be any rides. There aren't going to be any submarines. You may see a pirate or two."
You may also see Disney bringing in more than 1,000 jobs, said Stone many going to area residents who will go through an on-resort training program.While I have a hard time believe Disney will spend a billion dollars without also building some sort of entertainment to draw in non-resort guests to the area, it's true that the project will mean lots of increase revenue for Hawaii.

This book is a well-written, action-packed novel of the real life Iranian nuclear threat. The reader is held in suspense as a plausible military plot unfolds between Iran, Israel, the United States and Russia. The uniqueness of this book lies in the authors. LTG William Boykin spent years as an original member of the United States Army's Delta Force, the world's premier Special Operations Unit. It is evident this book is written by someone in the know. The details of special ops form the backdrop of this story. Co-author, Tom Morrissey, is a renowned adventure/travel writer who finds just the right words to make this novel seem like reality. The authors' vivid descriptions pull the reader into the moment. The reader catches a glimpse into a house church in Iran, the life of a high-ranking leader in the Iranian nuclear program, the details involved in planning a covert operation, the intense moment when one meets the enemy eye to eye, and the incredible price paid by an individual for his country and his morals. As I read, I pictured the scenes played out on a movie screen. The story has all the ingredients of a suspense-filled movie. It's not just a good read or would make a good movie, but it is realistic in that parts of the story are already playing out in current news events, months after the book was written.Was this review helpful?

Iranian Colonel Farrokh Nassiri, who works on the country's nuclear program, secretly converts to Christianity after assistance from his secretary Zari and reportedly dead missionary Pardivari. He attends services at house churches but wants to defect to the west so he can come out in the open and provide needed intelligence on Iran's nuclear weapon capability. However, Nassiri is realistic as to the futility of his dream since his position of importance would never allow him to emigrate legally or otherwise.
Although his beloved Alia Kassab prefers her "dead" CIA agent Blake Kershaw to stay at home with her, he enters Iran to escort Nassiri to the States. As they, accompanied by Pardivari and Zari, elude the Pasdaran army unit, Kershaw gets them to the plane. However, before they can take off Zari gives up her seat so that missionary Olga Warshowsky can leave. Blake feels guilty over the one left behind so he returns to Iran to try to bring Zari out.
The latest Kershaw CIA thriller (see Danger Close) is an exhilarating tale filled with high octane from the start to the finish. The story line is fast-paced even with plenty of Christian commentary by the protagonist and those he rescues, as faith in God in many ways is all they have while ironically inside a theocracy. Although the cast can become overwhelming as many are in for short clips The Kiloton Threat is an exciting action-filled novel as the audience anticipates the Iranian response.

This book consists of :The war on Terror" and as the Middle East is always in the headlines there is a threat for everyone on this planet. As I am a Christine it would be fine with me if Jesus came back today, but there are so many out there that believes in idols and other so called religions that is would be terrible for. As the Bible states "We are to have no other God's before us" and that means not to worship anything except what the Bible states. I had better get back to the book I am writing a review on and now start writing my own book.
As the authors states in this book "Kiloton Threat" explores the power of a nuclear weapons that are really all over the world, not just the middle east. Out of a house church a Christian pretends that he is a Muslim to gain a high ranking leader's confidence. When Blake Kershaw from the U.S. Special Forces enters the picture his mission is to find out things about Iran, but will he be able to get them out of that country without getting in trouble himself.
If you want a book that relates to the war and the troubles going on in the Middle East them you need to read this one. The authors did a great job of putting their thought together as anyone can see on any news station there is trouble everywhere.
I think this would be a wonderful day day for the Lord to come again and He will put up with this as the Bible teaches us, but one of these days when He has enough you had better be ready as in a twinkling of an eye He will brust the clouds open wide and then it will be too late.
Thanks to B and H publisher for sending me this advanced readers copy to review.

Helping Family: When Is Enough?
By KarenLynnn on November 13, 2012
On Sunday, my hubby's sister posted a photo of their dad in his uniform on her Facebook feed to honor him on Veteran's Day. It's a great photo of their dad, and the sentiment was touching.
My stepdaughter commented, pointing out how much her dad looked like her grandpa. Immediately following was a comment from one of her cousins that said "It's a shame your dad doesn't have grandpa's personality and values". Another cousin berated the nephew telling him how mean it was to be cutting down our daughter's father. The nephew told her to "butt out" because she has no idea of all the shitty things Mike as done, and that he'd be happy to inform her if she wants to take the time to listen.
For the sake of my sanity and my husbands integrity and all of our hurt feelings, I want to list just two of the "shitty" things we have done for family in the last few years.
1. We bought a home in Albuquerque for his mom to live in. Rent free. We pay all maintenance, taxes and upkeep on the house. This will be our retirement home some day, but for now, his mom has a nice place to live in a nice safe neighborhood.
2. We helped out this nephew's father when he fell on hard times. No strings were attached. He pay us back, but we did not expect it or want it. We just wanted to help him when he was down on his luck.
Now, the reason this nephew is disgruntled is despite numerous requests for him to move in with his Grandma, into our home away from home, we have said no. We've been asked upwards of 10 times in the last 3 years, and we give the same answer each time. No.
"Can ____ move in with me?". Of course there have been many reasons why she's asked. Once was because the apartment our nephew was living in with a friend had smoke damage from a fire elsewhere in the building. The apartment complex he lived in had already moved him and his roommate into another apartment. We said "No". The next time mom asked us if he could move in, she said "____ will help me pay expenses if he lives here". We said "No". Then: "I'm lonely, I want ____ to live with me". No again. And then "_____'s roommate is gay and he wants to get out of that situation". Nope, sorry.
Meanwhile, two years ago, we had serious teenage trouble with our son. All teenagers go through their things, we know this, we weathered it without talking about it to hubby's family because we didn't want anyone to know.
At the same time, our nephew was also going through his own stuff, as a 20 something who hasn't found his way in life yet. We felt bad, but we refused to let him move in with Mom. We felt as though it was not our responsibility to care for this child, and give him free room and board. His parents live in Albuquerque.
We did not call any of hubby's brother's and ask them to take our son to live with them when we were going through our family crisis, and felt that we were just being asked to do "too much" by letting our nephew move into our home in Albuquerque.
The last time we went to visit, hubby's older brother from Colorado was in town, as well as his sister from Savannah. We didn't see the brother who's son we said "no" to, he was mad at us for not taking his son in and would not come to visit. On the second to last day we were there, everyone got up to leave, without saying a word to hubby and I. When we asked where they were going, they replied that they were going to meet Ed for dinner. We were crushed. And we haven't been to Albuquerque since.
We have plans to visit in January for a week, and now I don't want to go. I explained to hubby yesterday that I just don't want to be in an environment where I'm disliked or where I'm living the grudge someone has against us. I told hubby I would stay in Santa Fe and he and his daughter can stay with Mom. I just don't have any desire to face this situation again. This did not please hubby. He said we can't let one nephew dictate how we feel and change our family plans and travels to New Mexico.
This rift in our family is a few years in the making, and has spilled onto Facebook now. There isn't much that we wouldn't do for family, but housing this man cub was where we drew the line. And now we are being slandered by him. And our feelings are hurt.
When is enough? Where do we draw the line?

Things that go crunch in the night
Beetles out en masse this spring
They crawl, they stink, they crunch under your feet. They're shiny, they're black and they can't get off their backs. The black ground beetle is moving in.
An infestation of beetles is making a lot of Wichitans wonder where they're all coming from.
According to Kevin Seman, field guide at River Bend Nature Center, a large influx of caterpillars, especially the armyworm, commonly known as cutworms or miller moths, has driven up the beetle population.
"The reason we have so many of those beetles right now is because their main prey ... are caterpillars," Seman said. "There's so many of these caterpillars around, these beetles are able to thrive."
The beetles are considered helpful because they eat caterpillars which eventually turn into moths, and those are in abundance this year as well.
"They're taking care of the moths. Either you want a whole lot of moths or you want a whole lot of beetles. They're not doing too much harm other than they smell bad," Seman said.
They eat a lot of other plant-killing pests as well, like aphids, weevils, slugs, fly maggots and snails. Killing these types of plant-eating pests allows plants to thrive.
Another factor allowing the beetles to thrive was a mild winter and now warm, wet weather.
"We didn't have much of a winter. It didn't get too terribly cold; it's been warm and moist. That's causing the plants to thrive which is causing caterpillars ... to thrive and in turn their predators which are big black ground beetles," Seman said.
Seman said a common name for the beetle, the most diverse animal on the planet, is "caterpillar hunter."
The black ground beetle has an abundant source of food in almost any environment, and although they cannot fly, they can climb trees and shrubs to hunt their prey.
They start out as eggs, with female beetles laying several thousands in a lifetime, before hatching into larvae then pupae and becoming adults. The whole process takes about one year.
Even in the larvae stage, beetles are predatory, eating worms and other insects dwelling beneath the soil.
"The thing about beetles is they're just so diverse. One out of every five species of animal is some kind of beetle," Seman said.
Adult black ground beetles live about 2 or 3 years after reaching full maturity.
The American cockroach is another insect abundant in population this year, but Seman said that probably had more to do with moisture. He said the roach, commonly referred to as a water bug, eats organic matter only.
"They're not predacious. They don't go around eating other bugs. They eat organic matter laying around."

So the old link was not working anymore so:
And yep, after fist error codes i've tried the heatsink sold by innovate and it didn't change the over all results. The results was the same error codes. It happened a bit later than previous but still results in impossibility of recording a complet log for the rear cylinder. Like said before, it's probably cause of the proximity with thecylinder and a temperature too high for the probe.
Oh, if you try the heatsink by innovate, don't forget to use a "never sized" stuff cause it is in SS. Dont ask me why, but i know have a M18 tap im my tool box.
So I talked to Innovate and they said that the bung for the M18 O2 sensor needs to be 24" away from where the header exits the cylinder.
These seem to be your relevant pics from your link above. If I'm looking at them correctly it looks like you reused the OEM AFR bung location for the rear cylinder, that's only 3" away from the header so not surprising that you cannot get a reading on the rear.
Seems the heat shield is further back on the Adventure than on my 950. I was thinking of mounting into the rear header at the red arrow which is 22" from the rear cylinder (measured). The location is at the exit of the bend right before the 2:2 connection, not sure if that will be an issue?
For the front cylinder I'm not so sure, the ideal location is right next to it but it's blocked by the rear mounting screw for the heat shield.
Anyone have any suggestions?
