NXT designers deserve a break
Remember the recent discussion on this blog about whether or not it's legitimate to sell building instructions?
A well-designed model can take days (and weeks) to design, build and rebuild.
Creating CAD models with MLCAD, POV-Ray and LPub (188.8.131.52) is tedious, hard to do right and SLOW, SLOW, SLOW! I'm not sure people understand how much time it takes to create accurate and understandable CAD building instructions. Yesterday, I set LPub running on a rather simple robot and it took over two hours! (I have a 1.66 GHz processor) If I only had to run the program once, it might not be so bad, but every modification requires running the entire file again. It's not uncommon to run the instructions 10-12 times before they come out right. Perhaps, if I could use the newer versions, it might be a bit faster, but I can't. After the instructions are "done", Rick tries them out and then I have to address every problem he finds---some of which require significant changes in my MLCAD files.
After the building instructions are ready, then there are programs to write and test, screen shots to take (and retake). Then you need to explain the program. Don't forget, all the building instructions and programming screen shots then need to cropped and assembled in some kind of desktop publishing format. (I use Photoshop and InDesign.)
It's no wonder we don't find many accurate NXT model directions on the Web. They require a LOT of long tedious hours of work. Anyone who takes the time to create good models with accurate and clear building and programming instructions deserves to be paid well for his or her efforts.

I feel your pain. Some of the CAD models I've made take 6 hours to render on my dual processor laptop.
Why not use the instructions generation capabilities of MLCAD for the checkout phase and only do the final rendering when your sure everything is correct.

This sort of think is why I end up documenting via photographs during disassembly. 'Course, I must admit this isn't sufficient for most publications, but for documenting and allowing others to build your designs, it works pretty well... and takes a LOT less time.

I wouldn't mind paying a small subscription to have access to well made instruction sets. They make things much easier to follow and complicated models can be completed much faster.
ps. Thanks to everyone who has made detailed model instructions which have given me and so many others so much enjoyment with LEGO.
(see how I used all caps, lol)

As an author of several BIs, I can easily agree that it is a pain to do. But using LDGlite instead of POV as renderer for Lpub makes things MUCH faster. And I prefer its images to the photorealistic POV ones: they look much more like LEGO BIs...

I understand that people sell theire instructions, but I think that maybe around half (probably a bit less though) is under 18 years old and does NOT have a credit card to order them with so it sin't only pain to make them, but it is pain that alot of us can't buy them. Even though we are willing to pay for them, we can't, THINK OF THE MINORS TOO IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO SELL OUR INSTRUCTIONS! Espcially if it is bot's made with the retail set only etc, remember that the LEGO Mindstorms NXT is targeted against us youngsters (and teens).
- Jun 9, 2007, 12:29:00 AM
That is where parents come into the picture.
I imagine most kids didn't buy their NXT with cash so the lack-of-credit-card argument is a little weak.
But I understand what you are asking.

Andy, why don't you ask your local library to get NXT books? They like to know what books people want.

Thanks for the idea Fay! It actually is that my best friends mother is the "boss" at the library. I can ask her if she can get some!

Fay and philo, can you give some advice (links, article, etc) on how to generate good BI's?
- Jun 9, 2007, 6:37:00 AM
- Fay Rhodes said...
There is a serious void of information about the CAD programs for LEGO anywhere. A couple of dated books are still in print and have some useful information--"LEGO Software Power Tools"(Syngress)(Don't use the program on the CD---go to www.ldraw.org for programs....) and "Virtual LEGO" (No Starch Press).
I'm sure Philo knows far more than I do, but if you want to email me your questions, I'd be happy to share my hard-earned experience with you.

Fay and philo, can you give some advice (links, article, etc) on how to generate good BI's?
Difficult to give definitive answers... The books quoted by Fay are a good start, even if they din't include the latest developments. Most of what I use now was patiently learnt by use. My current flow is this one:
- Build models with LeoCAD (by far my preferred CAD program). Submodels are built as separate files (up to now LeoCAD doesn't support submodels, but that could change soon). Most instruction stepping is done with LeoCAD too
Cable ends and waypoints for LSynth are also inserted, one cable per step to be easily found.
- Export all submodels in LDraw format and create a MPD using MLCad.
- Edit file to add LSynth commands to create cables, run LSynth.
- Render a first BI with LPub and LDGlite renderer.
- Fine tune stepping, and add LPub commands to the file to put several steps per page, add callouts and so on. This is by far the most tedious part (numerous pages generations are needed here).
- Render the final BIs...
That said, LeoCAD can be used to generate very readable and understandable BIs - though not graphically superb (and missing cable synthesis). The process is much faster and easier. You can see such BIs in my older models, for example my RCX brick sorter.
What you see was created as HTML instructions by LeoCAD, with just some editing to match my website graphical chart.

Congratulations, Mirik, these are very good BIs!

You told me that you don't use Lpub for automatically generating building instructions. Does that mean you produce your CAD instructions one-by-one?
If so, that's REALLY labor-intensive.
- Jun 10, 2007, 12:06:00 AM
- Mirik said...
Hi Rick,
I didn't use Lpub for generating instructions. I didn't even know about it until you mentioned it to me in your email. I used MLCAD and POV-Ray and rendered each image one at a time! You are right, it was labor intensive.
May be next time I should use LPub?
- Jun 10, 2007, 4:17:00 PM
- nxtmeef said...
Uh I have a question about an MlCAD piece. In LeoCAD it is referred to as Perpendicular Axle Joiner with two holes. you used in in that drawing up above. Also, how do you save a render as a photo?
- Jun 11, 2007, 4:46:00 AM
- Fay Rhodes said...
I believe the name of the piece is the same in both MLCAD and LeoCAD.
If you're using LPub, you can select jpg or png for your output. If you're talking about converting an ldr file to a photo, I don't know. My graphic converter doesn't recognize the ldr format.I just render it in LPub, POV-Ray or LDGlite if I want a model or part picture with a standard format.

- Christopher R. Smith (Littlehorn) said...
If you want to save a picture in MLCad...use the "Snapshot" option in the menu File>Save Picture(s). You can also move the 3D image around before you snap the shot. There is also an option to remove the step number.
- Jun 11, 2007, 6:02:00 AM
- Eric D. Burdo said...
Hmmm... maybe a new book needs to be done?
Or at least some articles for the website?
I'll check out some of the tools folks mentioned. I have the two books that Fay talked about (my wife surprised me with them for Christmas last year).
I am not an graphical artist, but I can use MLCad fairly well... so I'll see what happens with some other tools.

Step number? I have NO idea how to do steps in MLCAD. I make a little model, add a step, then add some more parts. Then I render. Does nothing, just shows the complete model. I use MLCAD, L3PAO, and POV-Ray v3.5. Can someone help?
- Jun 13, 2007, 4:04:00 AM
- Christopher R. Smith (Littlehorn) said...
nxtmeef, You're making the models in MLCad correctly. In "edit mode" you add a few parts, then add a step, then a few more parts, add a step, and so on. MLCad always shows you the model completed in this mode.
If you want to view the parts added per step use "view mode". This will allow you to step through the building process using the arrow buttons on the toolbar. When this mode is selected only the first few parts will be shown in the screen until you move to the next step (that adds more parts).
All of this is in the toolbars and the menu options of MLCad.
To produce images of each step...the radio button within the File>Save Picture(s) must be checked. Then, pics of each step are produced and saved in a folder you choose.
On to the other Photo/Instruction renderers...It gets a little complicated. But, the same idea is there...but you will always need step callouts in your MLCad files.
- Jun 13, 2007, 9:24:00 AM
- nxtmeef said...
Thanks, the Mlcad thing worked. I'll find out how to render steps myself (I hope)...
- Jun 18, 2007, 4:19:00 PM
- nxtmeef said...
And Fay what I'm saying is that I can't find it in Mlcad.
- Jun 18, 2007, 4:38:00 PM
- Christopher R. Smith (Littlehorn) said...
Here is the part you're looking for: http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?f=parts/42003.dat
You need to download it and copy it to your C:\ldraw\parts directory, then install the file with LDraw and MLCad...here's how:
Click Start and then select Run, type C:\ldraw\mklist.exe and click OK. When asked to sort by number or description, type the letter D for description. When the program finishes, close the window.
Next, select File/Scan Parts from the MLCad menu; MLCad should tell you that it has found new parts and ask if you want it to save a new parts.lst file. Click the YES button.
This is a redundant step but safe to perform.
Now, you will have the part in MLCad.

Historical domed hall and modern multi-purpose halls. Conferences, trade fairs & congresses hosted by a venue that has been certified as 'green'. At HCC, up to 7,000 guests can be accommodated in the Eilenriedehalle alone.
Tradition and innovation – values to which Hannover Congress Centre has a special attachment and commitment. Almost 100 years old, this convention centre with its historical domed hall and function rooms is not only a high-tech venue; it is also right next door to the modern multi-purpose event halls.
Hannover Congress Centre is also innovative in terms of its environmental management: in 2010, it became the first events centre in Lower Saxony to be awarded the Green Globe global sustainability certification.
Altogether, Hannover Congress Centre has four multi-functional event halls, seven other halls and 30 meeting rooms, providing a total space of around 10,000m² and 15,000 seats. It also boasts a unique and central location: the conference centre is easily accessible with excellent public transport links and yet is tucked away in the leafy surroundings of the city park. So in addition to indoor functions such as conferences, trade fairs, congresses, balls, shows and corporate events, Hannover Congress Centre is also able to host a number of open-air events.
Event catering at HCC is as slick as it is creative. Every year, delicious buffets, set meals, snacks and drinks are served at more than 1,700 events, from conferences to high-profile gatherings.
Another major advantage lies in the direct access to the adjoining Congress Hotel am Stadtpark which has 258 modern, well-appointed rooms.

OK, so I've seen this move in a lot of freestyle/Greco-Roman wrestling (and some high school/secondary school wrestling in Canada), but not a lot in American high school wrestling.
It's a move that starts with one wrestler underneath wrapping his arms around the triceps/biceps of the wrestler that's on top, then reversing him while locking up both of his opponent's arms with his hands to take him to his back. If you do this move well enough, it's almost a sure pinning combination.
If anyone doesn't know what I'm talking about, the YouTube videos below show the move that I'm talking about:
Cory at Waterloo Oxford 2011 - YouTube
Jafry at Waterloo Oxford 2012 - YouTube
Has anyone else seen this move? If so, what name (or names) does it go by?

Growing up in a family of lawyers - her mother, father, aunt, uncle, grandfather and great-grandfather were all attorneys - Elizabeth Rice '09 seemed destined for the practice of law.
Instead, she pursued art at Wilson College, but after having difficulty finding a graduate-level studio art program, Elizabeth found herself eyeing a legal career after all.
Now a student at Vermont Law School, where she expects to graduate in May, Elizabeth has her sights set on the entertainment industry. She plans to specialize in copyright law, which she sees as a way to combine her interest in the arts and entertainment with a legal career.
"I would love to work with a content creator like a movie studio, record label or art institution, and essentially be their copyright clearance counsel," Elizabeth said. "It would be my job to make their ideas happen and to make sure all the legal bases are covered."
But her ambitions don't stop there. Elizabeth is also interested in national and international copyright policy, and some day would like to work in the U.S. Copyright Office, helping shape copyright policy and law for the future.
A native of Baltimore, Elizabeth graduated from Wilson in just three years, earning a bachelor's degree in studio art in 2009. She is the first Wilson graduate to enter Vermont Law School by taking advantage of a four-year-old articulation agreement between Wilson and VLS.
"I was applying to studio art graduate programs, but I found that most programs did not want me because I am a charcoal artist," Elizabeth said. "Those programs really only consider drawing as a preliminary step to painting, and so I would not be able to make a graduate degree out of drawing alone."
As she began contemplating other options, Elizabeth's mother suggested applying for law school and she came to embrace the idea. "I like law because it is a vehicle for making things happen," Elizabeth said. "It applies to all areas of life and it can be used as a great tool for change. I also like that it protects the rights of people and gives people a way to stand up for what they believe in."
Elizabeth, who was one of the graduating members of the Wilson College Honors Program, credits Wilson with preparing her for law school. "Wilson College gave me the personal strength and quality of creativity that most law students do not have," she said. "Also, Wilson allowed me to have the comfort of more options for law school via its partnership with Vermont Law School."
Under the articulation agreement, Wilson students who meet the entrance requirements are admitted to VLS automatically.
While attending VLS, Elizabeth has completed two internships – one at a sports apparel company where she did general practice and litigation preparation, and another with Coppin State University in Baltimore, where she was an intern for both the legal affairs attorney and the National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA) compliance officer.
Elizabeth expects to take the bar exam in July in her home state of Maryland and plans to look for a position with an entertainment firm in the Baltimore-Washington metropolitan area.

Untitled, From the Williamsburg Housing Project Murals
The cool austerity revealed in Balcomb Greene's mural displayed here provides a visual equivalent to the intellectual concerns he articulated in many essays and lectures throughout his career. Born in Milville, New York, and raised in the Midwest, Greene earned a B.A. in philosophy from Syracuse University in 1926. His introduction to the art world was through the young artist Gertrude Glass, whom he met in 1926 and married shortly thereafter. Greene went on for graduate study in psychology in Vienna in 1927. On returning to the United States, he shifted his focus to English literature, studying at Columbia University and then teaching at Dartmouth College from 1928 to 1931. Thereafter, the Greenes went to Paris, where Gertrude pursued her own career and Balcomb continued to write—poetry and fiction—and also became more deeply engaged with contemporary art. In Paris both Balcomb and Gertrude Greene found aesthetic affinity with the ideas of the Abstraction-Creation group, which emphasized pure plastic (or formal) elements such as line, color, and shape, and rejected anecdotal or natural elements and identifiable subject matter.
Greene's relatively sudden embrace of painting met with early success, and he had his first solo exhibition in Paris in 1931. The Greenes returned to New York in 1932. Although Balcomb continued to write, his attention was increasingly drawn to painting. As a founder and the first chairman of the American Abstract Artists, Greene was an important force in promoting the group's beliefs both in his paintings and in print.
In the late 1930s Greene worked for the Mural Division of the WPA/FAP, executing this Williamsburg mural and another important one for the Federal Hall of Medicine at the 1939 World's Fair. He also earned a master's degree in art history at New York University in 1941.
From 1942 to 1959 Greene taught art history and aesthetics at the Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh. Although he continued to paint and exhibit actively, he was no longer affiliated with any particular artists' group or communal aesthetic or sociopolitical efforts. His work of the 1930s underscored his belief that art should be impersonal—as shown here in the cool remoteness of this mural—yet he turned in the early 1940s to an abstract idiom that relied on identifiable objects, a manner that he explored in his late paintings created in the Long Island studio that became his base in 1959.

SC budget allows ads on school activity buses
COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — South Carolina's school districts may be able to sell advertisements on activity buses next school year.
Legislators' budget plans for 2013-14 include a clause permitting ads on district-owned buses that transport students to athletic contests and other activities. Ads would still be barred from state-owned yellow buses that take students to and from school.
Sen. Paul Thurmond of Charleston tried unsuccessfully Tuesday to delete the permission from the Senate's budget proposal, saying children are exposed to too much marketing already.
But Sen. Wes Hayes says the ads will be on the outside, directed at passing motorists. The Rock Hill Republican says school boards should get to make decisions about locally-owned buses.
Rock Hill school district already sells ads on its service vehicles.
Debate on the Senate budget plan continues Wednesday.
You have indicated this comment should be removed.

Hi, I got into action figures from my BIL and would find all kinds of figures in my hometown, since noone else was a collector.
My coolest find was walking into a Toys R Us and seeing a unopened box of Star Trek action figures. This was back in 1996 or so and at the time, they had released a Star Trek figure that only had 1200 or so copies. In other words, one I'd never see.
Anyway, it was a nasty day, torrential downpours, etc. I wasn't going to go looking but I decided to go anyway. When I got to Toys R Us, I quickly walked through the aisles and as usual, nothing was there. An employee there usually got the good stuff.
As I was walking out, I noticed the case of Star Trek figures. I almost didn't ask a worked to open it, but one walked down the aisle as I was debating. She opened the case, I reached in and pulled out THAT figure!
Thing is, I can't remember what it was anymore! I blame it on old age
Anyway, if anyone can id that figure, I'd appreciate it, for old times sake. It was sometime around 1995 and they only made 1294 of this figure...
Thanks for any help!

Excellent product and excellent people to deal with!
It was nicely packaged and is a nice product. I am satisfied with it. I appreciate the timely delivery also.
I know this is advertised as a card pouch but it is so functional that I have several in different colors: 1) Credit Cards; 2) All family medical cards; 3) All membership cards such as Sam's; BJ; Costco; Hertz; Avis; United; AAA; AARP ; 4) Change for parking meters and other quick purchases....convenient size to fit into an evening purse or in my pocket....quality leather....LOVE this product!
great item and quality
Just perfect size...love it! Excellent leather and great workmanship.
I bought this pouch to carry the credit cards I don't normally carry everyday (dept. stores, etc.),coupons, and loyalty cards when I go shopping. I used to use a business card case, but it was too small for Macy's coupons. This works perfectly.
Looks nice but zippered opening makes it hard to get cards into pouch,...while a few do fit, it takes some careful work to get them in.....bought for a gift and was a little disappointed at how few cards would fit
This card pouch is exactly what I was looking for. It fits all my credit cards, it does not take much room in my purse, it is simple and very practical. I love the color, and the quality is great, too. Simply perfect!
I love this little pouch! Well made and very cute. I would definitely recommend to a friend
This single pocket leather pouch is fine for carrying ID, a few credit cards, and a few paper bills.
Whether you are treating yourself or giving a gift to someone else, we want you to have an amazing and memorable experience. All items will be shipped using our signature gift packaging. Depending on the type and size, your item(s) will come wrapped in our signature microsuede sleeve, drawstring bag or soft velour bag (each with black tie accents), and be packaged inside a high-density bronze gift box. You will also have the opportunity to add a personalized gift note when you place your order.
All of this extra attention to detail is complimentary.

"There is going to be at least 500 pounds in the ring," said Barnett. Its a big opportunity for me. This guy is an up-and-coming young buck. He wants to prove his name, he wants to show that beating a guy like Alistair Overeem was not just a flash in the pan. Hes gonna look to make his name off of me, and Im gonna look to just carve another headstone.

Searching Google: 38 tips to get better results
Recently passing the 1 billion user mark, Google has come a long way since it was first founded back in 1998 and has become a byword for internet searches. But, beyond chucking a couple of words into the main search box, do you really know how to get the best out of it? We've done some research and put together a few tips on how to get Google to do even more of the work for you.
The basics
If you've got no intention of spending hours studying the ins and outs of every search option on Google then don't worry. As long as you know the basics, then you should be able to save yourself a lot of time without having to delve too deeply.
Spelling - Even if you're not the world's best speller, it doesn't matter as clever old Google will do the hard work for you. If you don't spell a word correctly, Google will automatically switch to the most common spelling for the jumble of letter that you've typed in.
Web history - For many keen users of the Internet, the idea of anyone having access to their seach history may well be enough to bring them out in a cold sweat and cause them to hit the 'delete history' option at the first available opportunity. But, unless you have anything truly incriminating on your browsers's cache, it's wise not to be too hasty. Activating the Web history feature means that Google will spot trends in your web history and offer tailored results according to what you searched for and which sites you've visted before. This will also help you to find any good websites that you've previously stumbled upon but are now unable to find again.
If in doubt, keep in general - As with many things in life, the best advice is to keep things simple. If you're looking for a computer shop that you know of, but you're not exactly sure what's it's called, then you're better off just typing computer shop and the town or road name, rather than trying to guess at the name. Chances are this will bring up what you're looking for or give you a list of computer shops in that area and you can go from there, whereas misspelling (or 'misremembering') the name of the shop might not get you very far.
Web-friendly words - Try to use web-friendly words where possible, by thinking about how the information you're looking for would be written on the web. If you use a word that's correct but not the most commonly used term for what you're looking for then you might not get as many results as you'd expect. So, searching for fish and chip shop in your area is likely to get you more results than if you typed in takeaway cod, while searching for celebrity gossip will get you better results than typing in news about famous people.
Keep it short - Start off using as few words as possible, then add words to refine your search if need be. If you add more words than you need to, then your results may prove to be too narrow and you might miss what you're looking for.
No punctuation needed - If the use of apostrophes and commas isn't your strong point, then don't panic as Google doesn't recognise punctionation marks so even if you do type them in, they'll be ignored. Similarly, the search function isn't case sensitive so there's no need to worry about whether you should be using upper or lower case letters.
Fast Facts
Moving on from the basics brings us to Fast Facts - a very useful aspect of the Google search offering but possibly the least well known. The idea is that you can type certain search criteria into the box and the results will be displayed instantly at the top of the page, as well as all the usual pages below which you can clock through to if you choose.
Conversions - Google will convert pretty much any unit of measurement - all you need to do is type in the unit and measurement, such as 5 km to miles, saving you from having to search for a conversion site and type the info in there.
Stock information - You can also seach for real-time stock information using ticker symbols - such as APPL for Apple - and click through to Google Finance for more detailed information.
Calculator - Number crunchers can also use Google to work out maths equations by typing them into the box - Google can cope with anything from simple sums like 2+2 to more complicated equations. It's also easy to convert currency by just typing 10 dollars in british pounds, or whatever it is you want to convert.
Follow your team - Sports fans might also like to know that they can follow their favourite team. In the US, typing in NBA, NFL, NHL or MLB, or any of the teams from those leagues will bring up current info such as the next fixture date. This also works for some sports and leagues outside of the US, such as the Premier League in England. Another handy function, that will work internationally, is the the ability to find out what time it is anywhere around the globe simply by typing in time along with the city or country. Similarly, you can seach for sunrise and sunset, followed by the city name.
Dictionary - Possibly the most useful Fast Fact option is the dictionary function. Rather than digging out your copy of the Oxford English Dictionary, you can simply add define: in front of any word in the seach box and Google will automatically tell you the definition.
Track packages - There are also a few features that are currently US-only such as the ability to track parcels from UPS, FedEx and USPS by typing the tracking number into Google.
Earthquakes - US users can also type earthquake in the search box to bring up information from the U.S. Geological Survey showing the time, place and magnitude of recent earthquakes.
Advanced tricks
Now you've got the basics as well as some Fast Fact tips up your sleeve, but Google's gargantuan search service doesn't end there. There are lots of extra parameters that you can use in the search box to narrow down your search. It's worth taking the time to see what's available as it could end up saving you a lot of time in the long run.
Filetype - If you're after a specific document then it's worth knowing that you can search for PDFs, PPTs, or XLS files, by adding filetype: and the 3-letter file abbreviation after the title - for example searching for Declaration of Independence filetype:pdf will find you a handy, printable document of one of US history's most important documents, saving you a trip to the local library or the National Archives.
Missing words or letters - If you're searching for something that you don't know all the words for then Google will help you to fill in the blanks. All you need to do is use asterisk (*) in place of any missing words or letters and the search engine will find the answer for you - a godsend for working out pesky song lyrics and completing especially challenging crosswords.
Exact quotes - If you do know exactly the words you're looking for then putting them within quote marks will refine the search. For example typing a direct quote from a book "it was a bright cold day in april, and the clocks were striking thirteen" will only bring up pages where it's written exactly the same, missing out sites where it's misquoted. However, there is a danger of being too precise and accidentally excluding relevant results. For example, if you type "george orwell", then your results may miss out pages where the author is referred to by just his surname.
Related sites - If you find a website that you like, then typing related: followed by the website URL should locate some relevant sites for you, saving you from repeatedly googling the same thing over and over. You can also search something within a specific site, or type of site, which is good news as many site's own search functions are very clunky. To do this, just type site: followed by the type of site (such as .org .biz) or the site name. For example, site: org or site: washingtonpost.com followed by your search term.
Highlight essential words - Google will usually ignore words like 'and', but if they're essential to your seach then you can highlight them by putting a + sign in front of them. Using + and - signs, you can also highlight specific words that you do or don't want to feature in your results. For example you could search for a recipe for chicken caesar salad without anchovies by typing caesar salad recipe +chicken -anchovies.
Search within a range - You can look for numbers within a certain range by putting ... between amounts, for example, Samsung Blu-ray player £100...£150. This is particularly handy if you're on a limited budget and you don't want to waste time searching through items that are way too expensive. You can also just type £100... to look for anything above that amount with no top limit.
Some of Google's search options are dependent on your chosen location, making them region specific.
Zip/post code - for example US users can type in any zip code to found out what area it represents. A similar service can be used for UK postcodes, bringing up a location map, and this also works on most place names.
Movie listings - Simply typing in movie will bring up cinema listings and you can specifiy by city or film title. You can also search for local weather using either a US zip code or any world city, while just entering weather on its own will give you the weather report for your current location.
Flights - If you're looking at booking a trip then you can type flights from or flights to along with your starting point and destination (e.g. flights from London to Las Vegas). Google will tell you which airlines fly your chosen route and how frequent the flights are. What's more, typing a flight number into Google will give you an instant update of the flight's status to save you from constantly having to check a flight's arrival board.
As well looking up simple things like film screening times and the nearest pizza restaurant, Google is also a good starting point for proper research.
Books - If you're after a book that's out of copyright, then you can use the Book function (on the left side of your results screen) for tracking down complete texts for works that are in the public domain.
Timeline - The timeline function can be used for restricting a search to a certain time period - you can choose from Past 24 hours, Past week, Past month and Past year or you can even specify a custom range.
What's happening now? - For stuff that's going on right now, such as sports games or big news stories, you can click on the Realtime tab on the left to get an up-to-date account, which is automatically updated as more results appear, while clicking on the News tab at the top of the page will bring an automatically updated list of stories from all around the world.
Words meaning the same thing - You can include symonyms in your search results by placing the ~ sign in front of your search term. For example, best christmas ~gifts will return results for presents and tokens as well as 'gifts'.
Choose your reading level - Google also lets you search by reading level - enabling you to choose from basic, intermediate and advanced so that your results are as simple or as detailed as you require them to be.
Population statistics - You can search basic demographics such as population or unemployment rate followed by the US country or state or by country. US results are provided by the US Census Bureau and the Bureau of Labor Statistics, while European country data comes from Eurostat.
Search similar concepts - Another handy feature is Google's Wonder Wheel. Clicking on this option on the left of the screen after you've typed in your search term will return similar concepts that have been searched by other users, displaying them on a spider diagram (or wonder wheel, as Google puts it). You can then click through to these and toggle between concepts for further reading. Each time you click on a new search term, a new wonder wheel appears with more related concepts.
Prescription drug info - If you're in the US, you can also search for a prescription drug by its generic or brand name and you'll get a summary with the option to click through for more information from the National Institutes of Health.
And the rest
We've already covered some of the features listed on the left of the results page, such as the News and Realtime options, but there are still a few more ways of narrowing your search. You can also streamline your results by Videos, Shopping, Blogs, Discussions and Patents.
Make use of search tools - The list of search tools on the bottom left of the results screen will also let you cherrypick your findings by looking only for sites with images or looking for related searches, while the dictionary function will display a definition of any word you type along with a few usage examples.
Translate foreign sites - Clicking on the Translated Foreign Pages will do pretty much what it says by choosing the best language in which to search and giving you your results translated back in English. Great for checking out news coverage from around the world.
Filter your image search - You probably already know that you can also search for images, but trawling through millions of pictures can be tedious. Google lets you refine your search by using the tool bar of the left side of the screen. As well as filtering by colour and image size, you can also whittle the selection down by only including photos including certain elements such as faces.
Advanved search - By clicking on the Advanced Search on the right of the main search box, you can type in a variety of the parameters outlined above in one handy place, rather than clicking on each separate option or using the shorthand in the search box.
Google searches aren't just limited to your desktop anymore - you can also look for stuff when you're out and about, using your mobile phone.
Use your camera - Obviously you can do the usual searching with words or you can make use of your handset's camera. All you need to do is fire up the Google Goggles app on Android or select Goggles on the Google app for iPhone, take a snap of the item you want to search for, and wait for the results.
Use your voice - If you're keen on non-typing methods, you can also using the voice function to speak your query.
Instant results - Google Instant, the desktop feature that brings up possible results while you're still typing your query, is now available as a beta version on mobile devices, making things a little faster. To turn it on you'll need to fire up Google in your phone's browser and tap the link under the seach box.
Location service - You can also turn on the location service for Google which means that if you search for pizza, then you'll get results for nearby pizza restaurants and takeaways.

2014-2015 Parking Policies
Parking Ticket Appeal Form
Visitor Permit Request Form
Make your voice heard! Parking Committee still needs a residential student rep and a commuter student rep for the 2014-2015 academic year! We meet the second Tuesday of each month at 9am in Lenfest 106 (exception: October's meeting is 10/15 @ 9am). If you are interested in serving as a student rep, please email email@example.com!
Wilson College, as a residential community, is a walking campus. Residence halls, administrative and academic buildings are within a 10-minute walk of each other and the outlying equine and athletic areas are a quick bike ride. Recognizing the role of vehicle use as part of Wilson's dedication to supporting environmental sustainability, we encourage all members of our community to assess their need for a vehicle on campus and to participate in alternative transportation methods. Transportation alternatives include:
All members of and visitors to the Wilson College campus are subject to all parking policies at all times. Parking regulations are available online, in the Blue Book, and in print at the Security Desk in Lenfest Commons. We ask you to support our management of available parking spaces by registering vehicles, properly displaying parking permits, and parking within marked spaces in areas designated for the permit issued. Not being able to park close to a desired location does not excuse parking illegally. Please familiarize yourself with our parking regulations. If you have questions or concerns, or have received a parking citation without understanding the reason, please address your question promptly with Campus Security before you receive a number of citations (and the resultant fines and costs) and/or your status reaches the point of revocation of privileges.
Campus Security is responsible for administering and enforcing parking regulations. Wilson College assumes no responsibility for a vehicle or its contents while parked on or operated on the grounds of the college. The regulations are applicable to all students, faculty, staff, contract programs and visitors of the college.
Permits are issued to any requesting member of the Wilson College community to park on a first come, first serve basis for designated spaces. When spaces are filled for that permit, permit holder must move to other designated spaces for that permit on campus. Issuance of a permit does not guarantee availability of a space in lots designated for that permit, nor entitle the holder of a permit to park illegally in other lots or reserved spaces. Hankey Center Lot (Lot J) is considered overflow for all permit types and may be used by any permit holder or guest.
Any reserved spaces in any lot are for the exclusive use of the persons or offices assigned to those spaces. Handicap designated spaces are for any person displaying a state-issued person with disability placard, regardless of campus pass/permit type although we strongly encourage individuals to park in assigned lots if able.
Faculty/Staff lots are restricted for faculty/staff permits only Monday through Friday, 7am-5pm, during the academic year. Commuter students may use these lots Monday through Friday 5pm-7am during the academic year and as needed on weekends and during summer sessions. Commuters in faculty/staff lots outside of those times are subject to ticketing and applicable enforcement.
Residential lots are restricted for residential permits only at all times during the academic year. Residents may park in faculty/staff and commuter lots after 9pm and on weekends, but must remove their vehicles from non-residential lots prior to the 7am weekday deadline or be subject to ticketing and applicable enforcement.
Overflow parking for all permits and visitors is always available in the Hankey lot (J).
College lots are to be utilized by persons actively using their vehicles in the course of business, employment, or residency with the College. Vehicles may not be stored at any time in any Wilson College lot. Lots designated with an asterisk (*) below are lots that are shared between designated permit groups at all times.
Includes designated areas as follows:
Also available for residential permit parking during specified hours (M-F 9pm-7am & Weekends):
Includes designated areas as follows:
Also available for commuter permit parking during specified hours (M-F 5pm-7am & Weekends):
Individuals dropping off but waiting in the lot until the session is over should move their vehicle to Lot M (go south to large holding lot behind Disert/Rosenkrans, past the Childcare playground). Any overflow parking needed should go to Lot M.
This permit is used for permit holders who continually violate parking policies and are placed on Hankey lot restriction. Community members placed on Hankey Lot restriction for excessive violations will be required to turn in their normal permit and will be issued a pink permit for the duration of their restriction. Being placed on a restriction does not refund or absolve the individual of parking permit fees or fines.
Individuals with a pink permit are restricted to the following designated areas at all times, without exception:
Unrestricted lots exist throughout campus and are meant for events or gathering purposes. They can also serve a dual purpose of providing overflow parking spaces. There is no overnight parking in any designated unrestricted lots. Any person, permit or not, can park in these lots as long as they do not leave their vehicle overnight.
The following lots are unrestricted:
The Equestrian Center parking, while considered unrestricted, does abide by the following regulations to assist in the effective operation of facilities and meeting the needs of its users. These policies are monitored and regulated by the Stables Manager and Campus Security. Any questions about Equestrian Center Parking Policies should be directed to the Stables Manager. Any disputes regarding enforcement or application of the policy would be reviewed by Parking Committee.
The following people are allowed to park in the lot outside Hawthorne Arena:
The following will be allowed to park in the Hawthorne lot as long as there is still room for the people above and the privilege is not abused:
The area directly in front of the entrance to Hawthorne Arena is handicap parking only at all times. Only those explicitly listed above are permitted to park outside the Hawthorne Arena; no one else may park in this area at any time. This includes students for class, work study, part time employees, and boarders. All other users of the Equestrian Center should park in Lot Q (by Kitts Outdoor Arena) or by the Cook Arena. Do not park at the entrances to the barns, the arenas, or the gray shed for any length of time. This is a hazard if there were an emergency and it blocks the walkways. The veterinarians also need to have access to these parking areas to provide treatment. Please understand that during events or facilities rentals these regulations will have to be adjusted. Those in need of temporary exception due to a legitimate medical issue should see the barn manager. All other medical accommodation requests should refer to the Academic Support Center as described in the Health Issues section below.
Any member of the Wilson College community, including students, employees, and others who contract for physical space use (CVSM, Nursing, etc.), who park a vehicle on campus must register their vehicle with Campus Safety immediately upon arrival on campus and obtain a parking permit.
To register a vehicle, you must bring your current driver's license, insurance, and registration to the Campus Security desk and complete a permit registration form. The owner of the car shall assume all responsibility for personal or property damage and agree to provide at least $25,000 liability insurance.
Anyone registering a vehicle and accepting the appropriate permit is deemed to have knowledge of the Wilson College parking regulations and is responsible for compliance. Unauthorized vehicles are subject to ticketing or towing by the Campus at the owner's expense for violations. All vehicle operators are responsible for following all posted and published (in print and online) parking policies, including lot designations, space designations, directional markings/signage, and speed limits.
Fees subject to change. The fee is not prorated as the semester progresses; it remains the same no matter when a student arrives with a vehicle. Parking permits issued to students must be renewed each academic year. Faculty/Staff are only issued once, generally at the start of employment, although an annual registration confirmation may be requested.
Student workers are not authorized for a staff parking permit. Permits issued to employees are to be used by the employee only – not by their spouses or family members attending classes. A student may not utilize the permit of any faculty or staff member, including his/her immediate family, but rather must register the vehicle designated primarily for student use for a student permit.
Parking permit stickers must be properly displayed at all times while on campus. Permits must be displayed in one of the approved areas:
The person to whom a parking permit is issued is responsible for parking violation notices issued to the vehicle for which the permit was registered, unless the permit was previously reported lost or stolen. If the vehicle does not display a valid permit and the operator is not known, the ticket will be the responsibility of the vehicle owner.
All parking permits are the property of Wilson College. Campus community members who depart from the community (i.e. no longer employed or registered in classes or contract programs) must remove their parking permit and return it to Campus Safety.
Upon sale, trade, or other disposition of any vehicle displaying a current parking permit, the owner or custodian of the vehicle shall be responsible for removing the permit and returning it to Campus Safety in exchange for a new permit.
Theft or loss of a permit should be reported immediately to Campus Security. A lost or damaged permit will be replaced at a $10 fee. The fee will be refunded if the original permit or portion indicating the permit number is recovered and returned to Campus Security. A stolen permit may be replaced without charge if there was an incident report filed with Campus Security.
All campus community members are responsible for ensuring their guests are properly registered. Guest passes are available through Campus Security. Vehicle, identification, and length of visit information will be required, as well as the name of the hosting individual or office. Passes must be displayed in front windshield at all times.
Offices with a high volume of visitors will issue and keep track of their own visitor passes. Admissions visitors will be given pink visitor passes and can park in any visitor, conference, or unrestricted lots. Conference guests will have orange passes and can park in any conference or unrestricted lots. CVSM visitors will have maroon passes and can park in Lot H or Lot M.
All other College sponsored guests will have blue passes issued by Campus Security. All other visitors or guests will be issued white passes by Campus Security. Guest passes may be requested in advance by completing the online visitor permit request form. Passes will be generated and delivered through the PO to the host or available for pick up at the Security Desk (requester specifies on form). Individuals issued visitor passes are permitted to park in any visitor or unrestricted parking. They should not however park in any student or faculty/staff lots. Hosts are ultimately responsible for their guest's behavior at all times, including parking violations.
Persons who operate an alternate vehicle when a registered vehicle is temporarily not available, may pick up a temporary permit at the Security Desk. Temporary permits will contain the same information as a guest pass as well as specifying permit type (color of pass corresponds to permit type). A temporary permit allows for the same parking privileges as the registrant's regular permit and the user is expected to still follow the lot designations. Temporary permit must be displayed in front windshield at all times.
If there are circumstances warranting registration of more than one vehicle for an individual community member, those requests must be forwarded to the Parking Committee Chair and Campus Safety Director for review. Vehicle operators are only permitted to have one vehicle on campus at a time.
Students who have not registered a vehicle for the current term are generally not eligible for a temporary permit and are issued only when approved by the Director of Security and the Parking Committee Chair. Temporary permits are generally limited to no more than 5 days.
All vehicle operators are responsible for following all posted and published (in print and online) parking policies, including lot designations, space designations, directional markings/signage, and speed limits. The speed limit across campus is 15mph.
Violations of the regulations shall be communicated to the vehicle owner operator by issuance of a parking violation citation. Citations are issued by Campus Safety and select other trained staff (Campus Safety work study students, Grounds staff, Equestrian Center staff). Reports of violations should be directed to Campus Safety. Fines for any citation are due and payable upon issuance of the citation. Payment of a fine is to be made at the Business Office in Edgar Hall during normal business hours or by mailing the envelope attached to the ticket. Unpaid fines are subject to being doubled and will continue to increase as long as they remain unpaid. The total fine will be billed to the violator.
Possible violations and their fines include but are not limited to:
Please note that fines may be doubled with each repeat offense. Wilson College reserves the right to tow, immobilize, issue citations, and revoke parking privileges for any violations of these regulations. The fact that a person may park in violation of these parking regulations and not be issued a citation does not mean that the policy is no longer in effect.
If a permit holder or vehicle receives four citations, paid or unpaid, in one academic year, not including those successfully appealed, Security will place a tire boot on the vehicle. The permit holder must pay any outstanding parking fines as well as a $50 removal charge before the boot will be removed. At five tickets, the tire boot will be placed on the vehicle again with a $100 removal fee and restriction of parking privileges to Hankey Center Lot for the duration of the academic year (or the following if it is the end of spring term). The permit holder will exchange their parking permit for a Hankey Center permit at the time of boot removal. At six citations, the boot will once again be placed on the vehicle with a $100 removal charge and loss of parking privileges for the remainder of the academic year (or the following if it is the end of spring term). The permit holder will be required to return their permit at the time of boot removal. Parking privileges for any permit holder with seven or more paid or unpaid citations in one academic year, not including those successfully appealed, is subject to a $250 fine, possible honor council referral (for students), and/or permanent loss of parking privileges. Vehicle operators who continue to park on campus after losing parking privileges are subject to immediate towing without notice. Payments can only be made at Business Office (Edgar Hall 2ndfloor) during normal business hours. Campus Safety cannot collect monies nor can they remove the boot until payment is made to Business Office.
Any motor vehicle abandoned on college property is subject to removal and impoundment at the expense of the owner or operator. Vehicles that are not currently licensed, not in obvious operating condition, or are out of service for 30 days or more will be considered abandoned and subject to ticketing and removal. Any unregistered vehicle is subject to ticketing and towing at any time. All expenses incurred will be the responsibility of the owner. Wilson College assumes no liability for any damage incurred during or after towing or immobilization.
Appeals must be submitted through the online appeal form within 5 days of issuance of the citation. Appeals are presented anonymously to the Parking Committee at their next monthly meeting. The appellant will be notified of the Committee's decision by email within 5 business days of the meeting. If the appeal is upheld, any fine moneys paid in connection with the citation will be refunded. Citations already billed (after 5 days of issuance) to student or faculty/staff accounts or directly billed to owner/operator will not be accepted for appeal.
The Parking Committee is comprised of a representative from each of the following groups: residential students, commuter students, administration, business office, academic affairs, admissions office, physical plant, campus safety, disability services, and conferences & special events office. Parking-related questions and concerns can be directed to the Committee Chair at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Accidents that involve vehicles and that occur on Campus property (where there is an injury, no matter how slight, or the vehicle is inoperable) must be reported immediately to Campus Safety. This is a requirement of the state. Campus Safety must be notified of any vehicle that becomes inoperable for any reason. Hazard lights, road flares or notes on the vehicle are not considered sufficient notice. The operator must stay with the vehicle until a Campus Officer arrives to determine if there is a hazard. If he/she determines the vehicle is a hazard, the operator must arrange to have it removed immediately.
Any vehicle that is determined to be a hazard by Campus Safety is subject to towing. The owner of the vehicle will be responsible for any charges associated with the removal of the vehicle and any ticket subsequently issued.
Please note that there are limitations to what kind of assistance Campus Sercurity can provide; however vehicle operators must still notify Campus Safety any time there is an accident or an inoperable vehicle.
To keep the campus accessible for safety/emergency vehicles and essential personnel, Physical Plant and Parking Committee have established the following procedures. Physical Plant staff will clear drives and lots on campus in the same order repeatedly until the weather improves. We ask that anyone with a vehicle on campus during this time be watchful of the process and make sure they move their vehicle as needed. When clearing accumulating snow is necessary, we ask that all vehicle operators do the following:
Attempts to notify residential students (and all campus) will occur primarily by email. All vehicle operators are responsible for moving their vehicles as requested. Failure to do so may result in ticketing and fines as well as potentially being plowed in. Failure to move vehicles for plowing may be fined $50 per day and towed on the third day. The College assumes no liability for damage caused to vehicles that were not moved as requested for the plowing process. Maintaining access to one's vehicle is the sole responsibility of the owner/operator. Vehicle operators are responsible for having appropriate snow removal equipment; Physical Plant/Wilson College does not provide those services or materials for individual vehicles.
Any Wilson College community member who has a temporary mobility or health issue and needs a different parking arrangement may request such in writing by emailing email@example.com. The request will be reviewed by the Parking Committee Chair and Director of Campus Safety. All requests are subject to denial, time limits, consultation with or referral to the Academic Support Center, or a request for medical documentation. If the individual needs a longer term solution than we can offer they may be referred to the state process.
Beginning in May 2012, Wilson College will have two charging stations for electric vehicles, located in Lot I. Wilson community members are welcome to use these charging stations as we hope to encourage more sustainable transportation choices. Any electric vehicle is welcome to park in these spaces for the purpose of charging their vehicle, regardless of permit designation. However vehicles must be moved as soon as charge is complete. The College does not assume any responsibility for damage, expense or inconvenience caused by use of the charging stations.
Permit holders with diesel vehicles who require a plug-in outlet for an engine block warmer or car heater may use the outlet located at the back of Lot M near the footbridge and Conococheague. Vehicle owners must supply their own power/extension cord and must move their vehicles to other legal spaces when not actively charging. In the interest of personal safety, and to reduce the possibility of damage to your vehicle, it is recommended that a three-prong extension cord be used. The College does not assume any responsibility for damage, expense or inconvenience caused by use of the outlet.
Both of these charging options are on a first come basis and are not guaranteed. These policies may be modified or offerings discontinued at any time without notice.
The fencing for the Stewart Library project will directly affect on parking and traffic patterns. For the 2014-2015 academic year (and 2015 summer), parking between the science center and the library/Warfield (lots D & E) will no longer be available outside of the currently reserved spaces. The unrestricted lot (A) near the intersection of Lenfest Drive and Gallway will now be a faculty/staff lot as will the lot (C) along Gallway next to the science center and Lortz. Overflow parking is located in the Hankey Center lot accessible via Penn Drive.
Additionally, the intersection at Lenfest and Gallway will be blocked twice for 3-4 week periods while water and sewage lines are installed. During these times, auto traffic between the two sides of campus will need to take place via Philadelphia Ave/Route 11. In order to route the one way traffic from Lenfest, a connection will be created through the lot next the fitness center (B) to allow cars to exit via the Sharpe House drive.
As with any construction project, there may be unanticipated needs and adaptations will occur with little notice. These updates will be communicated by All Campus email as soon as possible.
Update 9/9/14: To provide for emergency vehicle access, it is necessary to turn 5 parking places in Lot A (creek side) into a designated Fire Lane. The spaces will be closed off as they are vacated and the area will be painted as a Fire Lane.
Update 1/13/15: Please remember that the end of Lenfest Drive (next to the library construction) and the first 5 spaces (approximate 30 feet) of Lot A next to the intersection (Con side) are considered a fire lane - no parking at any time. Please also remember that this intersection is still a 3-way stop - all traffic must come to a full stop before proceeding through the intersection.

Finish The Lyric
A New Game! Someone puts up part of a Korn lyric and another person finishes it.
Easy! Fun! Even your little sister can do it! Great for the entire family!
Let's begin:
Angels stabbing me inside . . .
Replies to This Posting
Re: Finish The Lyric
My sorrow
I swallow
Follow me
Oh hell, no.
New Lyric
Oh I wish that I could see,
How I wish that I could fly,
Far from things that hang above me
To a place where I can cry
Re: Finish The Lyric
So why can it be
no one here me call
echoes back at me
no ones there
New Lyric:
Live a life that seems to be
a lost reality
that I can never find a way to reach my inner self esteem
is low how deep can I go
Does it make me bad??
Re: Finish The Lyric
in the ground that I lay?
If I don't find a way to
see through the gray that clouds my mind.
New Lyric:
I'm out here
By myself,
all alone
Ready to blow my head off
Dirty - Best Korn song EVER
Re: Finish The Lyric
It hurts so bad inside, I wish you could see the world through my eyes. It stays the same... I just wanna laugh again.
Re: Finish The Lyric
Sorry, my new one: Nursery rhymes are said, verses in my head, into my childhood, they`re spoon fed...
Re: Finish The Lyric
hidden violence revealed
darkness that seems real
look at the pages
that cause all this evil
New lyric
I'm about to break
this is my fate
Am I still damned to a life
of misery and hate
Does it make me bad??
Re: Finish The Lyric
You will never know
What I've done for you
What you all
Put me through
New Lyric
Is it always black in space?
Am I going to take its place?
Am I going to win this race?
Re: Finish The Lyric
I guess Gods up in this place
What is it that I become?
Is there something more to come
more to come.
New Lyric
When the scars don't ever heal
Do you feel you'll never feel,
What it is to be at peace?
You're craving a release.
Does it make me bad??

*pretending the thrashing we were receiving was not true.
Actually, new role at work and having to follow different timings have put me off a bit.. So I have only checked out the draft thread in the past few days here in CW...
Plus, with him being the next Ponting, you should always be prepared for such reactions. And as a bit of a Ponting hater at times, I can understand why people will hate Virat.

I have another block in the newest 100 Blocks magazine.
You want to know something awful though??? Ok not that awful…but funny. An editor emailed to ask me whether I wanted my real name or Cluck Cluck Sew on the cover….and I could not for the life of me remember sending them a block to be in the issue! I guess I sent it last summer….but I still couldn't figure out what block they had until the issue actually came…then I remembered.
After I saw what block I had made I scoured through my gazillion photos and yep…there it was. Proof that I actually did make the block and my memory is awful…yet I can remember the phone number of my best friend in 5th grade with no problem...geesh.
The winners of the FQS giveaway were Karen P. and Cindy O. I emailed both of you lucky ducks.
I'm off to market tomorrow….and today I'm doing everything that I should have done in the past 2 months but kept putting off…not the best plan of attack.
