Classified ad of the week: Merc Pagoda
It's the first SL's 50th birthday. So you should probably buy one
Posted: 14 Mar 2013
This is a Mercedes W113 230 SL. And the model's just celebrated its 50th birthday after being launched at the Geneva motor show on this very day in 1963 - an auspicious time/excellent excuse to treat yourself to what's possibly the prettiest car in the history of EVER.
It's quite an important model, this. It was built to replace two of MB's most iconic cars: the slow but snazzy 190SL and legendary 300SL gullwing supercar. That meant it had to be lithe, fast, and easy to drive. So the manufacturer fitted the W113 with a straight six engine with multi-port fuel injection, an aluminium bonnet, boot, door skins and tonneau cover for lightness, and a short, wide wheelbase.
It also had double wishbone front and independent rear suspension, so it handled - in comparative terms - superbly. There were dual circuit brakes, too, and a removable hard top. Its lid's actually responsible for the car's Pagoda nickname. Can you see the resemblance?
The remaining aspects of that deeply pleasing outline were penned by a chap called Paul Bracq, who's CV includes the W108 S-Class (which has found a place in TG's heart in AMG/Mechatronik flavour), the Peugeot 604, 505 and Popemobile, and France's high-speed TGV trains. He also drew the oft-forgotten E23 - BMW's very first 7-Seires.
Even though it was pretty anodyne compared with the baroque silhouettes of seventies American convertibles, it had several high-profile fans. Audrey Hepburn, Charlton Heston, John Travolta, Sir Stirling Moss, and former US Secretary of State, Colin Powell, were all proud owners. Powell even worked on his himself.
So, what about this example of the company's 48,912-strong W113 run? It's a freshly restored 1966 230SL, so there's 150hp, and it's fitted with the earlier small wheel trims. This one's a manual, too - the W113 was actually the first SL you could buy with an automatic gearbox. The Pagoda hard top's still in place too, but you'd jolly well hope so considering the dealer's asking £59,950 for it...
Any TopGear.commers tempted?

"Shopping List" for MDP members
Specifically, I'll be asking the MDP'ers to provide me with URLs for any websites or blogs where they will be posting information, pictures, videos, and other items.
So... here's your chance. Feel free to post questions, requests for photos, and anything else on your mind. Again, I cannot promise the MDPers will be able to respond to all requests (there are some rules we must still follow after May 1), but I will do my best to get you what I can...
UPDATE: Please post your questions here, as comments. I'll be able to keep them all in one place. Please do not email them to me as I will most likely end up misplacing them - sorry, I'm notorious for keeping my Inbox clean and go 'delete crazy' at times.

I'm most curious about 2 things: the ultrasonic sensor and the bluetooth capability
1. I think pathfinding, room mapping, and exploratory robots expose some of the most interesting challenges in software design. Since all of these involve perception of the world in some way, I'd like to know what kind of capabilities and limitations there are to the ultrasonic sensor.
Is it just a short distance collision sensor? Or can it really develop a rough approximation of the world around it?
2. Since I'm a software developer, I'd rather spend my time writing complex in my language of choice without restrictions by an proprietary GUI interface (no matter how slick) or hardware limitations by the NXT.
So I'm interested to know how Bluetooth communications between the NXT and a laptop work. Maybe I could even start work on some programs before I even get the kit in August.
Interesting times ahead.

The new NXT motor looks very cumbersome (i.e. large and heavy). Can you describe it a bit and perhaps also your experience with the new "no bricks" building style.
- Mar 23, 2006, 6:05:00 AM
Mindstorms NXT looks like a good jumping off point for adding extended features.
I am interested in making my own sensors, and driving other kinds of outputs. So I while the ideal would be the low down on the electronics i/f, it would at least be useful to have hints on what the interface requirements are.
(Also 2 stud by 4 bricks are no longer going to be an appropriate housing for customer sensors, is there an obvious new alternative?)
Also I want to write my own tools to program the NXT robots; so I am looking forward to any info on the form of the software that runs on the NXT brick.

...and are the new motors "stronger" than the old ones ?
Can 1 motor easily lift three times it's weight (i.e. 2 other motors) without extra gear reduction ?
Will it be possible to (finally) make something like those new humanoid bots with the help of some HiTechnic Multiplexor's and a bunch of NXT motors ? :)
- Mar 24, 2006, 3:09:00 AM
Does anyone have the NXT LASM reference manual? Does the NXT even have a VM?
Is the new LASM a superset of the old or a new design?
From a CS standpoint, the Instruction Set Architecture of the RCX is poorly designed.
I would hate to think that if the NXT has a VM, they just changed all variables from 16 to 32 bits and left the ISA unimproved.
How much of the 32K RAM is available for code? data?
Is the a C compiler for NXT included on the CD?
- Mar 24, 2006, 4:03:00 AM
This was touched on in a previous comment. I would like to know more about the protocol used to communicate with the sensors. It also appears there are two types of sensors supported, digital and analog. Is this correct?
- Mar 24, 2006, 6:45:00 AM
Is it possible to build a network of several NXT's using bluetooth or usb? If it is, how do the available (by mid-September) programming tools support writing such program? I have pre-ordered one NXT set, but if the networking capabilities are good, I might order a couple more :)

The Value of Student Health Insurance Plans
The implementation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, commonly referred to as PPACA or ACA, has left many questioning the value of a Student Health Insurance Plan as opposed to other options available to students. Let us help you to understand.
As of January 2014, students will have access to the following health insurance options:
- Remain a dependent on Parents' health insurance plan to the age of 26
- Exchanges/Marketplaces - with premium tax credit, or subsidy, if income requirements are met
- Catastrophic Plan, often referred to as 'Young Invincible' plans, offered through the Exchange/ Marketplace
- Medicaid - based on expanded eligibility requirements in some States
- Individual Health Plan offered outside of the Exchange/ Marketplace
- School-Sponsored Student Health Insurance Plan
With all of these options, why should students consider enrolling?
- It may be the more affordable option!
- Student Health Insurance Plans offer lower deductibles, co-payments, out-of-pocket maximums, and premiums as compared to the lower cost options (i.e. Bronze and Catastrophic) offered through the Exchanges/Marketplaces. It is important to explore all options and choose the one that is the most cost effective when taking into consideration both premium cost and out-of-pocket costs.
- Student Health Insurance Plans reimburse medical expenses incurred regionally, nationally or internationally outside of the Student Health Center. This is often not the case with certain types of plans offered through employers or the Exchanges/Marketplaces.
- Student Health Insurance Plans include Travel Assistance Coverage which guarantees coverage through the year, including summer vacation and even while traveling or studying abroad.
- Student Health Insurance Plans are designed to "wrap around" campus Student Health/ Counseling/Athletic Services to provide the best access to primary and preventive healthcare.
- Student Health Insurance is purchased through the College or University at preferred pricing. Though there is no premium tax credit (subsidy) available, there are also no tax implications.
- Depending on the institution, in some cases, students can use Financial Aid to purchase Student Health Insurance.
The Application Period for the 2015 Health Careers Scholarship Program is now CLOSED (as of 5/9/15).

John Carmack has left id Software for Oculus
John Carmach has left id Software to join Oculus VR. The company is known for its popular Rift brand of VR headsets.
A statement from the company confirmed that Carmack is now Oculus VR's new chief technology officer, and reads, "John is one of the brightest minds of our generation – pioneer, visionary, and industry legend. There are very few people in the world that can contribute to the Oculus Rift and the future of virtual reality like John can."
Oculus is opening a new studio in Dallas that Carmack will head up, and it is currently seeking new talent.
In a statement, id Software co-founder Carmack said, "I have fond memories of the development work that led to a lot of great things in modern gaming – the intensity of the first person experience, LAN and internet play, game mods, and so on. Duct taping a strap and hot gluing sensors onto Palmer's early prototype Rift and writing the code to drive it ranks right up there.
"Now is a special time. I believe that VR will have a huge impact in the coming years, but everyone working today is a pioneer. The paradigms that everyone will take for granted in the future are being figured out today; probably by people reading this message.
"It's certainly not there yet. There is a lot more work to do, and there are problems we don't even know about that will need to be solved, but I am eager to work on them. It's going to be awesome."
Carmack has expressed a great deal of public interest in Oculus Rift since he announced it would be compatible with Doom 3: BFG Edition last year. Last August we reported that Doom 4 will also use the device.
id Software was founded by John Carmack, John Romero, Tom Hall, and Adrian Carmack. It is best known for its work on Wolfenstein 3D, Doom and Quake, as well as recent shooter Rage.
As discussed in the superb book on id's history 'Masters of Doom' – seriously, read it – it was always Carmack's desire to make the Holodek concept from Star Trek a reality through games. In Oculus Rift, he'll get one step closer to that dream.
At the time of writing id Software is working on Doom 4, but the company can't talk about it right now.

The Curious Case of Dave Prochnow's New NXT Book
Unfortunately, the book has very little about the NXT within it. Most of the book is devoted to a history of LEGO and the old RCX robotics system.
Prochnow's book criticizes Jim Kelly's new NXT book, "Lego Mindstorms NXT: The Mayan Adventure". He calls Kelly's book "belittling, silly and mindless" (page xi).
I'd like to weigh in on Prochnow's comments.
Jim Kelly's book is 300 pages about the NXT--programming, theory and design. Young people, the target audience for the book, will find it a helpful guide for learning all of the basics about NXT robotics. Kelly's book has complete programming and building instructions for five robots, plus a helpful guide for building your own NXT creations.
I invite all of you to head to your local bookstore for a head-to-head comparison of these two books. I know which one I would buy.

- Jim Kelly said...
Thank you, Rick... for the support and kind words.
I was at Borders bookstore today and had a chance to sit down with Prochnow's book. I almost hate to comment on it because I don't want to be accused of pettiness for one author to criticize another's NXT book... but then I thought about it and decided to write my thoughts anyway...
First, Prochnow did NOT get an advanced copy of my book, so he had absolutely no way of knowing what was in it. So his comment about the book being "silly" and "mindless" are confusing, because I don't know how you can make that kind of accusation without seeing the book first. This makes it so easy for me to respond about his book because I actually sat down and looked it over for a while.
I should add that I didn't buy the book. After viewing it today, quite honestly, I'm not impressed. The coverage of NXT is very little, even though the title seems to imply a focus on the NXT kit. What did I see? Nothing memorable - what I can remember is that I saw a 2 page spread on the "One Laptop Per Child" project (a great project, mind you) and a blueprint of sorts (??) for the Apple Store! There's some chapters devoted to the RCX but they appeared to me to be dated material - by that, I mean these chapters could have been written some time ago and "updated" with a few edits to bring it to 2006. There's an NXT project in it to make a "Ferris Wheel"-like device that was completely disappointing. Finally, yes, hacking is covered, but parents be warned: the level of technical difficulty is probably going to be beyond most of the younger readers and not sufficiently technical enough for the hardware hackers. Even then, the hacking projects are ho-hum.
I'm going to write a review on Amazon for 3 stars - I won't give the book 1 star because the book does have some merits. Yes, the new NXT is covered and there are some hacking projects that do revolve around some (very simplistic) NXT robots. The historical 4-5 pages that cover old-school programming was an interesting bit to see in the book's first few pages, but I'm still scratching my head about it. Prochnow also spends quite a few pages covering the LEGO Factory and software which might interest some readers, but to me seemed like "filler" and a waste of space. He also includes a lot of black-and-white cartoons of LEGO figures telling jokes to one another - again, total "filler" in my opinion that makes the book seem longer.
This book is totally unappealing to me. Sorry. And it obviously isn't written for kids. I looked over every chapter and I'm simply confused about what the book is trying to accomplish. Its subjects are all over the map and the NXT isn't used to pull them together.
I hate posting bad reviews of book. But I don't think my review will be alone.
If you like the book, great. One thing I can promise is you won't find one negative word in my book about anybody else's work. The comment Prochnow gives is a low-blow, but he's welcome to his opinion. Mine is clearly stated above.
And for anyone who might suggest that I'm giving his book a bad review because of his comment about my book, I assure you that if his book was useful to me and worthy of purchase, I would have bought it, bad comment or not. I was unaware of his comment about my book until Rick emailed me about it - my opinion of the book had already been made - the only difference is that I wouldn't have posted a negative review on Amazon, which I am only happy to do if it saves one person the money and disappointment.
I spent a lot of time and energy on my book and I stand behind it - I'm proud of what I've created and I wrote for a very specific audience that I hope will enjoy the book. It does bother me that Prochnow chose to add the little snippey comment, but I just keep in mind that he hasn't even read the book yet.
As for pettiness - forgive me one small bit of it here: I've provided 5 robot projects, complete with step-by-step building instructions and complete programming instructions with screenshots. Take a look at his book and what it covers and please let me know which book you believe does a better job of covering NXT, demonstrating building and programming techniques, and is fun to read. I'm biased, obviously, so I welcome some good discussion and comparisons.

Unfortunately, Dave P. gives no rationale for his comments about Jim's book.
I think Dave was trying to differentiate his book from others. But, in my opinion, he picked a poor way to do it.
- Dec 15, 2006, 7:59:00 AM
Whats funny is I got your book in themail a few days ago and already read most of it. I bought Dave's book last weekend and glad I actually saved the receipt because I'm returning it. Its awful. I missed the comment about your book completely but its there I looked. Don't sweat this and take the high road. You said your opinion so let it go and start on another book. You did a good job.
P.S. out of your robots I like the grabbot the best.

- Jon said...
Thanks for the info here - I've been umming and aahing over the various soon-to-be-released Mindstorms books and as an adult geek/tinkerer-type, the "hacking" book appealed to me on title alone.
I'll be re-thinking that decision now - no matter what useful content is in the book, criticising someone else's work, sight unseen is unforgiveable.
Jon (UK).
- Dec 15, 2006, 8:53:00 AM
my only complaint about your book and you'll hear it from others is that I wish the isntructions were not photos. But I was able to build 2 of the robots so far with no problem so I guess it's not that big of a deal. I'll let you know if I have trouble with the other 3 robots. I'm 28 and I like the story so kids will probably love it. Very creative and I wish I had thought of it. Are you doign another story in the new book?

I ahven't gotten a chance to acutaly read either of the books yet. However as I have previoulsy said in my preview, considering how open the NXT is, any book claim to "hack" the NXT is most likely going to be full of crap. Seems like a really cheap shot to talk about any other book in a negative sense in your book. While I think Jim's comment here was quite well thought out and wasn't biased in anyway, I do think that providing any negative comment about a competing book is bad form. Its better to let independant folks (like me!) write reviews and make comments instead. I hand't planned on even looking at this book, however now my intrest is piqued and I will have to check it out at the store, (or perhaps the library) I ceritnly don't plan on buying it though.
- Dec 15, 2006, 11:43:00 AM
I happened to be in Barnes & Noble today and saw the book. I briefly thumbed through it, but could immediately tell it was a poorly put together project with mostly bad pictures. It was definitely an attempt to get something quick out and make a buck, but anyone who actually looks at it before buying will not waste their buck on this one.
I haven't seen Jim's book, but I'm sure it beats this one hands down.
- Dec 15, 2006, 12:24:00 PM
- Brian Davis said...
Hmm, I might weigh in on this as well. Disclaimer: I *was* involved in Jim's book. Specificly, I was asked to be the technical reviewer, so in a sense it was my job to find the technical holes (to put it another way, i was a pain in the butt - and I was getting paid to be so). So I have read the book, line by line, and studied the programming examples and instructions. And there were some things I had trouble with, some stylistic, some more significant, but both Jim and the publisher were very open about it, and responded quickly. As to the book itself...
I liked it.
No, it's not the sort of book I would buy for myself, but then again, that's why I was tapped to be a technical reviewer (I had, at the time, more knowledge than the average reviewer). But more than that, I was really impressed with the style or theme of the book, particularly for young readers. It's not a "how to" book with cookbook instructions on building some models, but the book tries to lead the reader through the *process* of solving problems - and that in itself is probably a much more valuable skill than any NXT tidbits that are in there.
Just my two cents. From someone who had read the book, at a detailed (very detailed) level. And who was paid to pick on it.

Thanks, all of you, for your comments and support. A couple comments and answers before I move on in life:
1. I've removed my negative review from Amazon. It doesn't change my opinion that the book is of very poor quality - I believe it's a collection of other writings that Prochnow has done for other books (and didn't make the cut or didn't quite fit in) with some NXT stuff thrown in to get a book sold.
2. I can accept the comment he wrote about my book now because I realized that very few people will ever read it :)
3. Jeffrey - thank you for reminding me to take the high road. You and a fellow blogger convinced me to remove my Amazon review and let consumers write the reviews (but don't be surprised if Dave does a review of my book!) And I'm glad you like the GrabberBot - it was fun to design.
4. Seth - the photos (at the time) were the only method I had available at the time to meet my deadlines. CAD drawings were beyond my skill level and would have taken too long for me to learn the program and then design the images. As for the new book - no, no story. The NXT Step book will have its own style and format and I'm sure you'll like it because the group putting it together is doing some great stuff.
5. Jim German - again, I've removed my Amazon review - thank you for reminding me its the customer that should make the final review.
6. David, thanks for backing up my thoughts on the book with your own examination.
7. Finally, Brian Davis did a great job as tech reviewer - he caught a lot of small errors and one HUGE one (involving the LOOP block) and made many textual changes that were accepted by editor and myself. Thanks for your compliments on the book, Brian.
Now... on to new and better things!
- Dec 16, 2006, 12:11:00 AM
I purchased the book by Prochnow because Jim Kelly's book was not available. It is very dissapointing. I have Kelly's book on order and will exchange Prochnow's book on arrival.
- Dec 17, 2006, 2:06:00 AM
Taking down your review was a good thing, Jim. YOur book stands on its own. I'm an AFOL and I'm not embarassed to say that this 46 year old enjoyed reading your book. I've not seen or read anything like this before; I believe you have a unique tool here for teaching not only robot design but other topics. Using a fictional character and story to introduce legitimate reasons to experiment and build robots is "way cool"! I hope you have the opportunity to write another one. Good luck with it.
- Dec 17, 2006, 2:20:00 AM
I bought Prochnow's book yesterday, and have read most of it. I find the content generally pointless, and way too much focus on other stuff. No where near enough on the NXT. I think I understood more of the NXT from the tutorial on the Labview website.
If I need to read a history of Lego, stories of RIS and details on GPS, then I'll go elsewhere. But I do expect a book on NXT hacks to talk about hacking in great detail.
Even the secret game in every NXT kit is a joke.
- Dec 18, 2006, 8:10:00 AM
I can't return my copy of the book because it was a gift but I wish I could!!!!!!!
I'd liek to add a few of my problems to this list.
* One of the hacks is amazing. It is a picture of 2 bionicle figurines posing with the NXT brick. Wow. I'm not sure if I have the L33T Skillz to do this.
* One of the hacks involves using the MEGA BLOCK product. Hello????? Is this a Lego book???? Do the MEGA BLOCKs even work with Lego blocks????
* But my overall AWARD OF DISAPPOINTMENT goes to the detailed instructions for building a cargo container out of regular Lego bricks. YES!!!!!!!! A cargo container like they put on ships. Maybe you've seen them???? Rectangular. Hollow. 6 sides. Very difficult to build. NOT!!!!!!
* One project that did stand out was the wrist watch. It is made of NXT parts and does include the brick and a motor and some gears and is huge on your arm and hand. I don't think it qualifies as a hacker project but at least he tried.
I know you guys don't like bad language and stuff on your website so I won't say what I think this book is but I think you can read my mind!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Dec 19, 2006, 2:56:00 AM
Take look at the reviews on amazon.com for the NXT Hacker book. Bad bad bad.
- Dec 22, 2006, 3:33:00 AM
I remember when Dave posted a message on the MDP forum about his intent to write this book. This was maybe a couple of weeks after we had received our sets and several of us wondered who this guy was and how did he qualify as a NXT hacker. I thought him pretty bold to present himself as an "NXT hacker" among that group (the original MUP's and several well known members of the Mindstorms community).
About Jim's book, I really like it. It's particularly amazing given how little time he had to write it. I've seen some complaints about the visual quality of the building instructions, but we didn't have CAD models for the NXT parts until just recently, and LEGO is notoriously difficult to photograph.
I've had my set for almost a year now and I'm still learning. I'm hoping to master the material enough to update my "Building Robots for FIRST LEGO League" before the start of the next FLL season.
- Jan 27, 2007, 6:35:00 AM
I'm mentioned in Dave's Book?
What's it say?
Maybe he would have liked to let me know before hand? I got some emails about it after the fact.
I mean, that's nice and all, but I *just* posted my Red (NXT) Quad and the Robo Rocks NXT Bot was built a few weeks ago only.
Just curious, any body?

I don't know, Eric... where are you referenced in the book?
- Feb 18, 2007, 12:04:00 AM
Ok, my GF got me the book for reference. I see what is written now, and it is very complimenting!
Other than that, I have not fully read the book.
I look foward to seeing other NXT MINDSTORMS Books by different authors.

Sorry sir, but I have used Gentoo many times in the past and used Arch many times. In fact, my first Gentoo install was a stage 1 on a 1.7ghz P4. It took 3 days of compiling to get to a usable desktop environment. The thing is, it's pretty dumb to have a regression in the difficulty of installing your distribution.
if something like arch or Gentoo is too hard for you then your probably more suited to use one of the noobuntu flavours.

Nassau County Review Official Paper, ViDage of Freeport FREEPORT, N. Y., FRIDAY, JUNE 7y 1918 Vol. XXI, No, 23 SOLDIERS HAVE ENTERTAINED US (Official report from Soldiers and Sailors Oub)..

We also hnd several other good singrers and one or two who were artists on the piano. The Ladiea Doin« Bis Work It is no reflection on our soldier lada that they are short of cash, but we at Headquarters could tell you soa«e in- terestinK things about the work and our guests. Figure it out yourself, for instance, ip the case of a lad who pays $6 a month for Govemment in¬ surance, $10 for two Liberty Bonds, and an allotment of |15 a montb for his dependent relatives, from a salary of |32 a month, and has the balance for smokes, laundry, carfare and "ex¬ tras.

Well we have sorely had niost wonderfal weather up here and our war garden is doing flne. Last Monday night there was a great sendoff for the boys going to camp from Saranac Lake, Bloomingdale and Tupper Lake. All went from Saranac station and the crowds of people and automobiles was great. You wonder where they all came from. There was a big parade of the firemen, business men and po¬ liee with the flremen, brass band and Boy Scouta. Sacb cheering and as the trains palled ont they all saluted with guns, and today (Aecoration Day) there was a big parade with lovely Red Cross floata, soldiery sail¬ ors, ete., and they ha<re more than doubled their qaotoen the Ked Cross week. Now really the world isnt so very large after all! To oar surprise one day two weeks ago, while in Saranac -^1 The Rt. Rev. Frederick Burgess. Bishop of Long laland, will visit the local parish at the Sunday morning service for the purpose of Confirma¬ tion. The rector will present a claas of eleven boys. Com.

B, Ferry Ce. a^. _^^ , Ferry Conipany Opens To Long Beach The Great South Bay Ferry Co. had a successful day Sunday for its thru service to Long Beach. The new time-table showing the through boats, printed in this paper, will continue throughout the Sam¬ mer. Another change for the people has been the installation of a boat leav¬ ing Baldwin Harbor dock in front of the old hotel at 9:45 a. m. and 4:16 p. m., beginning on the 8th 0/ June and running daily thereafter. The big double deck boata, the Salem, Sea ,Witeh and Sea Gull, have all been overhauled and re-painted. The sail from Baldwin to Long; Beach includes stopping at Freeport, Sea Edge, Point Lookout. Nasaao-by- the-Sea and Long Beach. The aail is just one hour long and the retaro boat from Long Beach parmifa peo¬ ple to spend the day at Long Beach with a nice restful sail at the end ef the day. Sunday the Company carried ever 800 passengers to Point Logout and about 60 to Long Beaeh, The surf bathing was excellent and the beaches were the only cool spots on Long Island that day. The big double-deck Salem has had some alterations made in ita engine and now makes the trip from Free- port to Point Lookout in sixteen min¬ utes, although the schedule calls for one-half hour service.

Tools for the tool box.
As they passed four resolutions to position themselves to move ahead on levying taxes to address four areas, county commissioners last week said they were just adding a tool to the tool box for the next budget season, leaving the door open for alternative sources of revenue.
There would still be studies required to justify establishing a Municipal Services Benefit Unit (MSBU). Those studies Commissioner Warren Yeager said could run in the tens of thousands of dollars.
There are still requirements for public hearings – county attorney Jeremy Novak suggested the Board of County Commissioners conduct at least two public hearings before adopting any MSBU by ordinance.
But as they had discussed much of the past year, commissioners are in search of alternative revenue streams and by adopting four resolutions on solid waste, stormwater, road improvements and beach nourishment the BOCC is in position to at least consider specific taxes to address those issues in the coming budget year.
"This allows you to consider this this year," said county administrator Don Butler. "It doesn't mean you are going to do anything, but it opens the door."
Yeager said before considering the first resolution that he would not be in favor of any additional taxes unless the BOCC lessened by a corresponding number the burden on property tax payers.
"This does allow us to spread the expense for those services," Yeager said. "But I am not in favor unless we reduce the ad valorem tax burden."
One proposal, for beach nourishment, was narrower in focus than the others, Novak said.
Given that revenue generated by any MSBU would be insufficient to fully fund a multi-million dollar project to nourish beaches that are reaching the life expectancy of the previous nourishment project, the issue would likely require a process much like the previous project.
That involved establishing a Municipal Services Taxing Unit (MSTU), by referendum of voters in the impacted areas, to underwrite a bond issuance for the local funding for any nourishment project.
"We may or may not need this, but it does give us one added option," Yeager said.
The other three resolutions dealt with issues that were more county-wide and could, if commissioners chose, be options they could adopt as a board without going out to the public beyond conducting public hearings and soliciting public comments, Novak said.
The solid waste ordinance was almost a fait accompli for the commissioners.
With the landfill losing hundreds of thousands of dollars each year and nearing its own expiration date, commissioners have discussed mandatory garbage pickup countywide for some time.
The BOCC has proposed a voter referendum on a sales tax for mandatory garbage pickup in November.
The resolution on stormwater brought debate, and comments from resident Bill Koran who wondered about taxing property owners – any tax under a MSBU would be levied by property owner in a uniform amount, Novak said - considering that some stormwater issues, as on St. Joseph Peninsula and St. Joe Beach, are due to faulty private development or construction.
Yeager emphasized that there are stormwater issues in all districts and not all tied to development or construction project.
"This gives us the ability to have the discussion, do the studies, to implement the taxing unit," Yeager said, adding that the studies demonstrate and justify the extent of any benefit.
Commissioner Joanna Bryan said the county had some ability to address stormwater early.
"Stormwater should be addressed at development," she said. "I look at a lot of developments in the county and there is no stormwater management."
There was also debate about road improvements, but along two planes.
Yeager said an MSBU would not be his preferred method of raising money for road paving. He has long championed an increase to the gas tax the county collects.
"That way everybody pays," Yeager said.
Bryan said she would like to know the background of prior road paving projects, but had been denied that public information by Commissioner Carmen McLemore when she requested it from county staff.
At the time, McLemore said it was a waste of staff time and told Bryan outright she would not get the information.
She said the BOCC needs to understand where road bond money was spent in the past to fully understand the priorities of the present and future.
"We have no plan, no priorities," Bryan said. "We need to have a plan of action."
Novak again interjected that while there remained many questions to be addressed on all four resolutions, "You can not continue during the budget process without the resolutions."
All four resolutions passed, each garnering at least four votes.
"This is nothing written in stone today," McDaniel said. "It's just keeping the options on the table."
Jail tales
A straightforward question turned into another quarrel about the jail.
A request by jail administrator Michael Hammond to negotiate with Liberty County to house female inmates – the Bay County Jail has run out of room for females, he said – was met with a question pertaining to the county's responsibility/accountability for inmates housed in other jails.
The question came from Bryan and Hammond greeted it with allegations that Bryan was working to ensure the county is sued concerning the jail, that her actions regarding the jail had become "beyond ridiculous" and as such he did not feel comfortable addressing the question.
Bryan asked Butler to step in as county administrator to address Hammond's "insubordinate" behavior and denied taking any action aimed at getting the county sued.
All the while Hammond and Bryan talked over each other and Commission chair Tan Smiley banged his gavel.
"Mr. Hammond, you are so out of line," Bryan said. "I am disturbed that he continues to come to meetings and talk this way. That is insubordination."
Butler said that he understood the BOCC to have previously closed discussion on the jail and the issue of an inspection and, "The less we talk about the jail the better."
Bryan said it was reasonable to question what the BOCC's responsibility was and most everything commissioners do is potential for litigation.
"(Mr. Hammond), stop with your insubordination in these county meetings," Bryan said.

Welcome to the Department of Biological Sciences
Whether you are interested in biomolecules or ecosystems or everything in between, The Department of Biological Sciences at Messiah College offers students the opportunity to tailor their study of biology to pursue their interests and calling in a distinctly Christian context. The department offers a choice of majors and concentrations that seek to provide students with an understanding of the sciences that will enable them to pursue a range of post-graduate options, including graduate school, medical school, or the allied health field, or immediately seek employment in a variety of settings in industry, business, education, and government.
Our curriculum, which includes a Biology major with a choice of 5 different concentrations, provides both a broad foundational base as well as allowing for focus on specific areas, such as biomedical, cellular, organismal, and ecosystems. For those who are interested in a more specialized course of study, we also offer several specialized and interdisciplinary majors, including Environmental Science, Molecular Biology, and Biopsychology. Throughout our curriculum, learning in the classrooms is complemented by active, hands-on experiences in the lab and in the field. Students also have the opportunity to explore the world by participating in travel courses led by departmental faculty to global destinations including Central America, New Zealand, Patagonia and Zambia.
For more details on the curriculum requirements and the types of courses you would be taking as a Biology Major, visit our Online Course Catalog or take a look at the printable Biology Major Brochure.
The Kline-Jordan Science Center houses modern labs that are equipped with research quality technology and equipment, including real time PCR machines and deconvolution fluorescence microscopes, as well as The Oakes Museum and a greenhouse. Many departmental faculty carry on active, ongoing research programs and students have the opportunity to collaborate with published faculty on original research projects. Upper level students regularly present their work at our research symposia every spring as well as at professional meetings and conferences. Students can apply for The Steinbrecher Undergraduate Research Fellowship, which provides funding for full time undergraduate research projects with faculty over the summer.
Biological Sciences in a Christian Liberal Arts Setting
The unique advantage of studying biological science at Messiah is that students work in the context of a Christian liberal arts education. Thus, while investigating the world around them, they also study themselves and their Creator. The Department places special emphasis on integrating the knowledge and methods of the sciences with what Christian faith teaches about people and their place in the universe. Additionally, the Central Pennsylvania Forum for Religion and Science, which is under the direction of a departmental faculty member, regularly sponsors a variety of events to promote a better understanding of religion and science and is also a resource available to students.
How to Apply
To apply for admission to Messiah College, simply call and request an application at 1-800-233-4220 or apply online! Open House dates and major-specific events are scheduled throughout the year. Students may arrange for a variety of visit options to suit their interests and schedule.

Kidney Infection in Pregnancy
Medical Author: Melissa Conrad Stöppler, MD
Medical Editor: Charles Patrick Davis, MD, PhD
Among the many changes that take place in the body during pregnancy is an increase in the risk of developing an infection of the urinary tract. The hormonal changes as well as the physical changes exerted by the enlarging uterus can lead to a slowdown of the passage of urine through the urinary tract and even to vesicouteral reflux, a condition in which urine in the bladder backs up, or refluxes, back into the ureters (the tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder). The hormone progesterone is responsible for changes in action of the smooth muscle walls of the ureters, and the weight of the uterus itself can lead to urinary retention. There is further an expansion of blood volume and increased load on the kidneys in pregnant women, resulting in increased urine output in the face of decreased mobility of the ureters. Finally, pregnant women tend to have higher urinary levels of glucose than nonpregnant women. All of these changes predispose to infection within the urinary tract.
As in nonpregnant women, urinary infections can occur in the urethra or bladder or may spread to the kidneys (pyelonephritis). The majority of infections come from existing bacteria in the...

On a morning after our DC (MS SBS 2008) reboots due to automatic updates, we arrive at work to find that no-one can access any shares on the NAS. We need to rejoin the domain (this morning we had to enter the wrong password, have it be unsuccessful, then enter the correct domain controller password). We then have to restore the share permissions from a config backup. After that, we are OK until next time our DC reboots.
This is a critical issue to us and is bringing into question our use of the NAS, which we only purchased within the last month or so, the issue has already happened twice, and results in significant productivity loss.
Assistance please?

That's highly debatable. There's tons of crap apps on both sides and there's tons of good apps on both sides.
What saves Apple is their app store. There is absolutely no doubt that the Apple App Store is the best there is. The apps there are unrivaled by Android. There is simply no equal. As for the iPad Mini - it is way over priced. They should have done better.
