1. Field of the Invention
The invention relates to a hydraulic motor, especially for driving of rotating tools, consisting of a chamber, provided with an inlet for supplying fluid, and with at least one outlet hole, before which, on a holding device, a rolling rotor is seated, the rolling rotor is formed by a body of rotational shape.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Many devices exist where hydraulic motors are used to drive rotating equipment or tools. It is advantageous, to use normal water-supply piping as a source of pressure fluid for manual and mobile equipment. As a hydraulic motor for this type of equipment a Pelton turbine and its modification and/or various modification of waterwheel are mostly used. Their purpose is to transform the pressure and kinetic energy of water, supplied by inlet piping into rotational power which drives certain equipment used very often for cleaning processes, if water as a power medium is used. The drawback of all above described solutions is the fact that the torsional moment on the shaft is accompanied by extremely high shaft rotating speed which is not always suitable for final use, and therefore the speed of rotation must be considerably reduced by gearing. Simultaneously principally there is a limit to the reductions of the basic hydromotor unit the main wheel, which transforms the energy of the water flow into the torsional moment, because the reduction in the size of this main wheel also increases its rotational speed and reduces the torsional moment thus making the gearing system progressively more complicated.
From the Czech patent application PV972-97 and from the international patent application PCT/CZ/97/00034, there is known a fluid rolling machine consisting of a chamber provided with an inlet for fluid inflow and at least one outlet hole, before which is placed a holding device supporting a rolling rotor which consists of a body of rotational shape.
The aim of the solution is to modify this fluid rolling machine in such a way that it may be in the best possible way suitable for driving rotating tools.
The mentioned aim is achieved by means of a hydraulic motor especially for driving rotating tools, consisting of a chamber provided with an inlet for supplying of liquid and with at least one outlet hole, before which, on a holding device, a rolling rotor is seated. The rolling rotor is formed by a body of a rotational shape, according to this invention, the principle of which resides in the fact that the chamber is at least in its internal surface of a rotational shape and of a tapering diameter, and the chamber is open on its side of the maximum diameter, and limited by a wall on its side of the minimum diameter. In the middle of said wall is provided a hole, through which a shaft passes with a clearance. The shaft carries the rolling rotor. The shaft is provided, inside the chamber, with a recess, the diameter of which is larger than the diameter of the hole in the wall. Several outlet holes are arranged round the hole in the wall.
The hydraulic motor according to this technical solution needs no gearing for achieving operational speed of rotation, suitable for driving rotating tools, and its size may be considerably smaller than with known embodiments, while still having the required torsional moment.
According to an advantageous embodiment, the rolling rotor can have a shape of a hollow and open hemisphere which is fixed onto the shaft by its open side against the liquid flow.
According to another advantageous embodiment, the chamber has, at least on its internal surface, a shape of a truncated cone of a lateral area under the slope of 4 to 8�.
According to another embodiment, an adapter for clamping exchangeable tools is arranged on the end of the shaft which protrudes from the chamber.
To make the handling easier, it is advantageous, if in the chamber, on the side of its maximum diameter, a handle is fixed, onto which the inlet for the liquid supply is connected, and in the handle a control valve for controlling the liquid flow is provided.
According to another embodiment, axes of outlet holes in the walls of the chamber may be deflected from the longitudinal axis of the hydraulic motor, and in the jacket of the chamber there can be made additional outlet holes, and the inlet of liquid is formed by a flexible hose.
According to a further embodiment, the chamber may be seated coaxially in an additional jacket which is terminated with a rotating nozzle connected to the shaft.
The chamber may be also enclosed in a case, through the face wall of which a shaft passes, being fluid-tightly sealed, and the case is provided with an outlet for draining liquid.
According to various advantageous embodiments, the exchangeable tool may be represented by a brush head cleaner, or brush, or sponge, or drill, or milling cutter, or grater, or abrasive stone, or massage adapter, or mixing adapter.
The hydraulic motor according to the invention will be described in details on particular embodiments showed on drawings where individual drawings illustrate:
FIG. 1 is a diagrammatical cross-sectional view of a hydraulic motor with an adapter for clamping exchangeable tools;
FIG. 2 is a diagrammatical elevational view of a hydraulic motor with a handle and a set of exchangeable tools;
FIG. 3 is a diagrammatical elevational view of a hydraulic motor adapted for cleaning piping;
FIG. 4 is a diagrammatical elevational view of a hydraulic motor with a rotating nozzle; and
FIG. 5 is a diagrammatical elevational view of a hydraulic motor in a tightened case with a liquid outlet.
On FIG. 1, the first example embodiment of a hydraulic motor 1 for driving rotating tools by means of water from water-supply piping is illustrated. The hydraulic motor consists of a chamber 2 being shaped as a truncated cone with the lateral area, having a slope of 7�. On the side of a larger diameter, the chamber 2 is open and a flexible hose of an inlet 10 for supplying liquid is connected to it. On the opposite side, the chamber 2 is closed by means of a wall 3, in the middle of which there is made a hole 4 for a shaft 5 and concentrically outlet holes 6 of the liquid. The hole 4 for the shaft 5 has such a diameter and shape that it may enable not only a rotation of the shaft 5 but its swinging as well. The shaft 5 is provided inside the chamber 2 with a recess 8, the diameter of which is larger than the diameter of the hole 4 in the wall 3. Onto the shaft 5 inside the chamber 2, a rolling rotor 7 is fixed. The rotor 7 can have an arbitrary rotational shape. A hollow hemisphere, open against the liquid flow, proved to be an advantageous shape for the described embodiment. The end of the shaft 5 which protrudes from the chamber 2 is provided with an adapter 9 for clamping exchangeable tools.
After opening an unshown valve, water flows through the inlet 10 into the chamber 2, from which it flows out through outlets 6. By the water flow, the rotor 7, by means of a recess 8, made on the shaft 5, leans against the wall 3, and at the same time it starts rolling along the circumferential jacket of the chamber 2. The end of the shaft 5, with an adapter 9 protruding from the chamber 2, starts to rotate and simultaneously follows a path of a small circle. Because the difference between the maximum diameter of the rotor 7 and the diameter of the chamber 2 in the place of the rotor 7 rolling path is usually not larger than 1 mm the shaft 5 swing is negligible for the intended application.
As to the described embodiment example of the hydraulic motor 1, revolutions of the shaft 5, at the water flow through the hydraulic motor at the rate of about 0.17 to 0.2 l/s, may be expected within about 420 to 450 rpm. Water pressure in the inlet 10 for supplying water should be between 2.4 up to 3.6 kPa.
FIG. 2 shows another embodiment of the hydraulic motor 1 which differs from the embodiment shown on FIG. 1 only by that, between the chamber 2 and the inlet 10 for liquid supplying liquid, there is mounted a handle 12, provided with a built-in control valve for controlling the liquid flow. It can be a normally available manual garden sprayer, connectable to a hose. FIG. 2 also shows an example of a set of exchangeable tools, for example a brush head cleaner 13, a brush 14, a sponge 15, a drill 16, a milling cutter 17, a grater 18, an abrasive store 19, a massage adapter 20 and a mixing adapter 21.
The function of the embodiment shown on FIG. 2 is the same as of the embodiment shown on FIG. 1. As it is evident from the above indicated exchangeable tools, this embodiment may be applied to cleaning, grinding, polishing, drilling, milling and mixing materials, and also for a body massaging.
On FIG. 3 there is illustrated an embodiment of the hydraulic motor 1 for cleaning piping. The inlet 10 is represented by a flexible hose, and outlets 6 made in the wall 3 of the chamber 2 have their axes declined from the longitudinal axis of the hydraulic motor for directing the liquid flow to the internal wall of the piping being cleaned. For the same reason there are made, in the jacket of the chamber 2, additional outlet holes 11. The shaft 5 is terminated with a push-cleaning tool 23.
After putting the hydraulic motor 1 into the piping being cleaned, this piping is cleaned both with a water flow from the outlet holes 6 in the wall 3 of the chamber 2, from additional outlet holes 11 in the jacket of the chamber 2 and by rotation of the push-cleaning tool 23.
On FIG. 4 there is illustrated the hydraulic motor 1 provided with a rotating nozzle 26 for spraying gardens or fields. The chamber 2 and the hydraulic motor 1 are seated coaxially in an additional jacket 25 which is closed, on its top, by the rotating nozzle 26, connected to the shaft 5 of the hydraulic motor 1.
Water is supplied not only into the chamber 2 where it rotates the shaft 5 and the rotating nozzle 26, but also into the additional jacket 25 of the hydraulic motor 1 for increasing the water flow.
For some applications it is advantageous, if the liquid is drained from the hydraulic motor 1 outside the working space which makes it possible to utilize the hydraulic motor 1 also for dry working processes.
An example of such an embodiment is illustrated on FIG. 5. The chamber 2 of the hydraulic motor 1 is enclosed in a case 27, through the face wall of which the shaft 5, sealed against the liquid penetration, is passing. The case 27 is provided with an outlet 28 for draining liquid outside the working space.
Such an embodiment of the hydraulic motor 1 may be applied e.g. as a drill, a grinder, a winding equipment, a mixing equipment, a mixer, a drive of an electric power generator or pump, a polisher, a planer, a circular saw, a screw driver, a tightener, a rotational tooth brush, a milling machine, a hydraulic drive of machine parts, and the like.
The hydraulic motor according to the technical solution can be applied in connection with respective brushes for cleaning, when applying water, as a manual washing set, at which it is possible easily to change various types of brushes. Said application may be carried out both in industry and in households, in gardens, in firms and institutions supplying various services, and it may concern a cleaning of tools and implements, working aids, sanitary ceramics and aids, ceramic lining, kitchen crockery, coachworks, car bodies and other transport vehicles and their engines, and the like. Needed water pressure may be at the level of pressure which is usually supplied by water-supply piping. When applying said usual pressure or a higher pressure, the hydraulic motor may be applied as a driving unit in connection with respective adapters for cleaning building facades, for cleaning gaps, fissures and breakings in concrete, bituminous and similar surfaces, for washing and cleaning various kinds of pavement and lining-surfacing materials, for cleaning windows, and the like.
This hydraulic motor may be also applied for cleaning piping, if it is connected to a flexible hose and provided with respective push cleaning tools. If it is provided with a massage adapter, it may serve as a massage shower in cooperation with a rotation mechanical massaging. More over it can be applied as a driving unit for specialized machines and tools, e.g. for treating stone, cutting and drilling into a stone, concrete and similar materials and surfaces, where water is a suitable accompanying medium, for polishing surfaces of various materials and surfaces, and the like. It can be also applied at the end of an irrigation piping and for spraying of irrigation water. It is also possible to apply it as manual tools under a water surface, e.g. for driving tools, for screw tightening; for drilling, cutting, grinding, and the like. It may also serve as a driving unit for child's toys in pools/baths and toys connected to water-supply piping, because due to its design it can be suitably dimensioned with respect to the safety point of view. It may be also applied in a closed liquid circuit, and to serve in this way as a liquid motor, eventually servomotor anywhere, where it is not suitable or necessary to use liquid for certain working or technological process.

California's Republican Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is hitting back at members of his party for attacking President Barack Obama's economic recovery plan.
Schwarzenegger says last year's $862 billion stimulus plan is "terrific" and has created 150,000 jobs in his state and says that Republicans who criticize the recovery measure while seeking stimulus dollars for their states and congressional districts are playing politics.
Opposition to the stimulus plan is nearly universal among top national Republicans like former presidential candidate Mitt Romney — who says it hasn't created private sector jobs — and Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, who calls Obama's plan a big waste of money.
Schwarzenegger made his comments on ABC's "This Week."

22 June - 23 July
An interest in photography or the visual arts especially graphics and computer imagery can trigger your creative juices and give you a sense of inner peace today. You may prefer to be alone at this time for this reason, but you may be coerced into joining someone at a function, party or dinner engagement which could be a somewhat crowded environment. If you can tactfully sidestep the issue, all the better.
24 July - 23 August
Financial wisdom is the key phrase for you today, so try to cope with whatever monetary difficulties are presented. Control your moods as much as your bank account. If you want to improve things, be prepared for others to obstruct you. If your peers have become complacent and accustomed to a situation, then it may not be that easy to shift their opinions.
24 August - 23 September
Distractions by friends and work colleagues need to be resisted if you're going to meet your deadlines over the next few days. These people are not exactly your best support today even if they appear to be a lot of fun. You can accomplish a lot more today through empathetic concern for others. Any favour offered will be returned in the future.
24 September - 23 October
Domestic affairs are exciting, but come with some additional responsibilities as well. You feel as if you have an unbelievable amount of work to clear off the table, but don't forget there are other members of the family who can help. You could be crowded with a lot of correspondence associated with business or finance. Plan your day well to finish tasks on time.
24 October - 22 November
Don't be hasty in pointing out other people's flaws. Encourage them before you tell them what they need to rectify. They will appreciate your concern. You could see your commission percentages enlarged right now if you're in some sort of sales work. Good work, consistent performance and punctuality may be the reasoning behind this.
23 November - 22 December
A visitor from afar may contact or even surprise you. There are strong links with foreign countries during this cycle. The travel bug may bite. You have an increasing desire to understand technology, which is why gadgets and other modern appliances will fascinate you now. Of course, learning is part of this, so don't become frustrated when you realise how much learning is involved in having the latest gizmo.
23 December - 20 January
A quiet stroll could be a soulful pleasure right now. But you have to commit to making time for yourself. The Moon in Pluto don't function all that well today. The more you try to forget someone the stronger the memory. On the other hand the more you're trying to obsess and attract someone the more shadowy they appear.
21 January - 19 February
Be careful that you're not stabbed in the back. You could be too trusting, so keep your wits about you. If there's unfinished business, attend to it right now. You could be undermining your own best interests due to a fear of speaking your mind. Honesty can be brutal, especially when the people we love don'ot want to hear what we have to say.
20 February - 20 March
Action, motion and speed are the keywords today. You'll work hard and fast. Make some concessions, though, as loyalties may be divided. You could prefer to be alone today to work on some introspective issues, but people are demanding their pound of flesh from you. Creating a new alliance can help win this battle but you may have to share some emotional secrets with them first.
21 March - 20 April
Don't pretend to be what you're not. Humility will make a greater impression than an over-inflated self-esteem. Venus and Jupiter will help you make gains in your investments and romantic affairs. By not necessarily telling the whole story today you'll sidestep a disdpute. This isn't lying, just convenient omission.
21 April - 21 May
Don't allow melodramas to dominate your domestic sphere. There could be some raging bushfires you have to put out all at once. You need nerves of steel today. You might feel a little down about your romantic life as well. This is because you're focusing on the negative rather than the positive.
22 May - 21 June
Although you want to be liked by everyone, don't act out for the sake of approval. It's a much better day for enjoying the company of friends. In-depth discussions are favourable but Sun and Mars could turn your tongue venomous so be careful you don't wound someone with words.

Today is "Autism Awareness Day." For some reason as I heard the words in my head this morning I immediately became amused. I understand that it's about spreading awareness of autism, but I could only laugh and think But I'm aware of it EVERY day. This is our face of autism. Those gorgeous ice blue eyes. The smile that has found its way to her face somehow. The personality that is growing every day. Most would call us blessed, and we agree. Molly's form of autism is mild enough that she will likely lead a "normal" life. A job, a family, all that a parent imagines for their child. That doesn't mean she won't struggle. That every day one quirk or another won't rear its head to impede what would normally be an easy step into a careful shuffle of feet. The little reminders that pop up. The way she organizes her M&M's by colors in a snakelike form before eating. The way she delicately nibbles, trying not to let the grease or crumbs of food touch her lips or outside of her mouth. The way we cannot break our established program or routine without a meltdown. The way her hugs are strong but brief, no lingering touches or snuggles. The way you see her mind processing and learning everything she cannot express verbally. Leaps and bounds of progress have shaped our lives these past few years, a sparkling personality is emerging from behind the walls. A girl that wants to be a model. A girl that's amazing at math and science. With those she trusts she is bubbling and bright, even bossy…but the meltdowns still linger. We are blessed. All parents are blessed. I hope today your awareness expands, but shouldn't it every day? Read more »

Lou Reed, R.I.P.
Musician Lou Reed passed away today at the age of 71. His cause of death is unknown, but Reed underwent a liver transplant last May.
The Brooklyn-born Reed and Welsh musician John Cale would co-found The Velvet Underground, which became the darlings of Andy Warhol's underground, avant-garde scene in the late 1960's. While their minimalist style did not translate into commercial success, it would influence generations of musicians. Although The Velvet Underground & Nico only sold 30,000 copies at the time of its release, U2's Brian Eno noted back in 1982, "I think everyone who bought one of those copies started a band!" Perhaps The Velvet Underground's best known and most accessible song is "Sweet Jane".
After leaving The Velvet Underground, Reed embarked upon a solo career. Reed would score his biggest commercial success in 1972 with "Walk on The Wild Side." In four decades, Reed released more than 20 albums. His final album, Lulu, which was a collaboration with Metallica, was released in 2011.
Reed is survived by his wife, performance artist Laurie Anderson, whom he married in 2008.
Here is an article by Lee Smith for TabletMag which recounts how Reed nearly punched out Smith at a dinner party a few years ago until he mentioned the name of Brooklyn poet Delmore Schwartz.

More On Legal & Compliancefrom The Advisor's Professional Library
- Where Are We Headed? The ultimate compliance goal is to help ensure that everyone associated with an advisory firm acts ethically at all times. Advisors and RIAs should do the right thing, even when regulators are not looking over their shoulders.
- The Need for Thorough and Effective Policies and Procedures Whethere an advisor is SEC or state-registered, RIAs must revise their policies and procedures to address significant compliance problems occurring during the year, changes in business arrangements, and regulatory developments.
The Senate Banking Committee is "tentatively" looking at the week of March 11 for a confirmation hearing with Mary Jo White (left), President Barack Obama's choice as the next head of the Securities and Exchange Commission, a Senate aide told AdvisorOne Monday night.
Once the Senate Banking Committee has its hearing, the full Senate can confirm her the very next day, or a day later, so White could replace current SEC Chairwoman Elisse Walter by mid-March.
One comment from an SEC official at the SEC Speaks conference in Washington on Friday put Mary Jo White's presence at the agency at "30 days" away.
Walter declined to give a timeline after her speech at the SEC Speaks event on when a fiduciary rule proposal to put brokers under a fiduciary mandate would be released, stating only that the fiduciary issue was "very important" to her. White's arrival at the agency puts a big question mark on how the agency will move forward with a fiduciary rule.

2009 – Evolution is a term to define only one organism and that's the self. The self is the universe, the self is the alpha and omega, god, and infinity, and that's the only thing that evolves because we are all part of the self. Nothing goes through an evolutionary process alone or without direct benefit to the whole. So when you begin to think that there's this controlling elite, this controlling hand behind the curtains leading the planet to destruction…When you think the end is near, the apocalypse, Armageddon, and when you think we as a species are doomed, it is not they, it is you that brought this about, and for a very good reason. You are evolving. Stop blaming everybody and everything else. Quit panicking about global tyranny and natural disaster and pay attention, because the world is telling you something; it's tell you exactly what is wrong with you and how to fix it.
Early in the morning of April 9, 1948, commandos of the Irgun (headed by Menachem Begin) and the Stern Gang attacked Deir Yassin, a village with about 750 Palestinian residents.
The village lay outside of the area to be assigned by the United Nations to the "Jewish State"; it had a peaceful reputation. But it was located on high ground in the corridor between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. Deir Yassin was slated for occupation under Plan Dalet and the mainstream Jewish "defense" force, the Haganah, authorized the irregular terrorist forces of the Irgun and the Stern Gang to perform the takeover.
In all over 100 men, women, and children were systematically murdered. Fifty-three orphaned children were literally dumped along the wall of the Old City, where they were found by Miss Hind Husseini and brought behind the American Colony Hotel to her home, which was to become the Dar El-Tifl El-Arabi orphanage.
Part of the struggle for self-determination by Palestinians has been to tell the truth about Palestinians as victims of Zionism. For too long their history has been denied, and this denial has only served to further oppress and deliberately dehumanize Palestinians in state of Israel, inside the "occupied territories", and outside in their diaspora.
Some progress has been made. Westerners now realize that Palestinians, as a people, do exist. And they have come to acknowledge that during the creation of the state of Israel, thousands of Palestinians were killed and over 700,000 were driven or frightened from their homes and lands on which they had lived for centuries.

The room size was small and the bed was not very comfortable - felt hard and lumpy. We actually stayed at 3 hotels in DC on this anniversary trip: The Fairfax, the Melrose Georgetown and the Grand Hyatt Capitol Hill. Of the 3 the Fairfax was the least comfortable and had the worst service and amenities by far. I will not choose this property again as there are so many great choices in DC that compare at the same price or better. When the Melrose was informed of our 25th wedding anniversary on this trip, we were surprised by a gratis bottle of prosecco and chocolate covered strawberries. The Fairfax put a pillow on our bed embroidered "Happy Anniversary." Finally, but not the least annoying, they would not let my wife check us in as she was not on the reservation, even though we share the same last name, live at the same address listed on the reservation and presented the credit card in her name that was used to make the reservation. She had to wait 20 minutes in a drafty lobby during a winter storm until I returned from self-parking our car (to avoid the $48 per night valet fee). To me this was frankly ridiculous and unforgivable. ...

Tuckahoe YMCA receives $7k donation from Kiwanis Club
Citizen Staff Reports 11/26/12
The Tuckahoe Family YMCA recently received a $7,000 donation from the Tuckahoe Kiwanis Club. The money was raised during the group's eighth annual golf tournament and will help the Y continue its programs for youth development, healthy living and social responsibility.
The donation is the organization's way of giving back to the community it serves, Kiwanis Club of Tuckahoe Tournament Director Bland Weaver said.
"We think the Y does a great job for the youth of the area as well as all age groups. We've been supporting them for a long time and we hope to continue to do so," Weaver said. Tuckahoe Family YMCA Group Vice President Mary Gentry Roberts received the money on behalf of the Y and said the donation would help support the Y's mission of creating programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body for all.
"We couldn't continue to do what we do without organizations like Kiwanis," she said. "This money will help us continue our promise to the community so that we will not turn anyone away for inability to pay so this will go to our financial assistance program at the Tuckahoe Family YMCA."
Short Pump Rotary volunteers help with rebuild, repair
On June 13, the Short Pump Rotary Club partnered with Schnabel Engineering for a day of volunteer work with Rebuilding Together Richmond. Team members (among them [from left] Chris Rufe, Melissa Abraham, Rick Naschold, and Micky Ogburn) completed a variety of repairs and home improvements ranging from painting and landscaping to cabinet installation and fence building.
"It was a privilege to be involved in this project," said club president Melissa Abraham. "The homeowner kept thanking the volunteers, but I think all of us would agree we are the ones who actually benefited. It was an opportunity to help a community member, fellowship with great people and improve our handyman skills." > Read more.

When cross compiling tools, you will often have to provide "a target triplet". Example given
- i686-pc-linux-gnu
- arm-none-linux-gnueabi
- powerpc-unknown-linux
and so on...
These triplets, which are sometimes in fact four components, have the following form:
Kernel is optional and manufacturer can be something like "unknown" or "none", since it is often not relevant.
What I haven't found yet is a page that documents all possible values to be used here. I know that all components are pretty much "free style", so there is no official standard that would force you to use components from an official standardized list. Yet tool designers and configure script writers expect users to specify those triplets to their tools/scripts, so they must have some possible values in mind and there ought to be something like an "unofficial list" tool makers, script writers and users can use as a reference.
Has anyone ever found such a list?

Was dreading the process of buying/ negotiating trade in and purchase of a car. I was looking for a certified preowned volvo and John Busse went the extra mile to find one for me. My initial visit was on a Saturday and by the following Friday I was a happy owner. John facilitated the entire process of negotiation, financing and service in a really relaxed way, I appreciated his up front approach.

China Mobile launching new brand on December 18, time for iPhone?
The iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c may have launched in China, but there's still one notable absence; a China Mobile iPhone. The worlds largest cellular carrier has long been rumored to begin carrying the iPhone, and as the Wall Street Journal reports, things may begin to progress on December 18:
China Mobile Ltd. said it plans to introduce a new brand for mobile services on Dec. 18, raising expectations of an imminent start to its iPhone sales in the country.
There's nothing specifically linking the iPhone to this announcement, but many reports have suggested in the past that China Mobile won't announce the iPhone until after its 4G services had been announced, but as yet no licenses have been issued. Apple has been licensed to run on China Mobile's network with the iPhone, so it seems to be a question of when rather than if.
Finally securing a deal to work with China Mobile would help Apple's chances of expanding in China greatly. The recent device launches have proved that the worlds most populated country is important to Apple, so it'll be interesting to see what may pan out on December 18.

People underestimate this deal. It really HUGE news for Apple. China is a very closed market and Apple having access to China Mobile (700.000.000 subscribers) will help compete bad Android handsets offering great quality products and iOS.

Medicare Paid For ViagraWritten by R. Cort Kirkwood
Some older gentlemen have been achieving a better love life courtesy of American taxpayers.
A report from the inspector general of the federal Department of Health and Human Services, which administers Medicare, has divulged that Medicare erroneously has paid at least $3.1 million to cover erectile dysfunction drugs such as Viagra and Cialis.
In a brief filed with the U.S. Supreme Court on March 14, the Obama administration argued that the court should deny a request to bypass the appeals process and hear directly a case involving the constitutionality of ObamaCare.
Because prominent members of the Obama administration continue to tout British health care as an example for America to emulate, it's necessary to highlight the endless array of issues connected to Britain's National Health Service. In the most recent example, a major British health care official admitted in an upcoming documentary that premature babies born at 23 weeks gestation or earlier should be left to die because of cost concerns.
On January 31, U.S. District Court Judge Roger Vinson of the Northern District of Florida ruled that President Barack Obama's healthcare law is unconstitutional, essentially halting implementation of the law. However, on March 3 he issued a stay of his own ruling, thus allowing implementation of the law to proceed.
Resurrection Medical Center, located in Chicago, Illinois, is the first Roman Catholic hospital in the country to begin the practice of interrupting abortion procedures midway through the process at the request of the mother.

Unfiltered takes on politics, ideas and culture from Nation editors and contributors.
Democrats got tough with Rep. William Jefferson last night, voting 99-58 to boot the corrupt Congressman off the powerful Ways and Means Committee.
Today he was formally removed from the seat by the entire House.
Jefferson, with his $90,000 bribe hidden in the freezer, did more than anyone to undermine the Democratic message of a Republican "culture of corruption." The legal investigation has almost certainly distracted Jefferson from rebuilding his district in impoverished New Orleans, which should be his number one priority.
Dennis Hastert asked Rep. Bob Ney to relinquish his chairmanship of the House Administration Committee. Allan Mollohan gave us his seat on the House Ethics Committee. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi rightfully understands that Jefferson, nicknamed "Dollar Bill" by his Louisiana peers, no longer deserves the perks of a tax-writing Ways and Means seat.
"Anybody with $90,000 in your freezer, you have a problem with this Caucus," Pelosi said after the vote.
Jefferson and his allies shamelessly tried to make this debate about race. But it's really about basic standards of decency--and important electoral considerations. If Democrats want to detox the House in November, they need to clean up their own house first.

DIGITS is an interactive deep learning development tool for data scientists and researchers, designed for rapid development and deployment of an optimized deep neural network. NVIDIA introduced DIGITS in March 2015, and today we are excited to announce the release of DIGITS 2, which includes automatic multi-GPU scaling. Whether you are developing an optimized neural network for a single data set or training multiple networks on many data sets, DIGITS 2 makes it easier and faster to develop optimized networks in parallel with multiple GPUs.
Deep learning uses deep neural networks (DNNs) and large datasets to teach computers to detect recognizable concepts in data, to translate or understand natural languages, interpret information from input data, and more. Deep learning is being used in the research community and in industry to help solve many big data problems such as similarity searching, object detection, and localization. Practical examples include vehicle, pedestrian and landmark identification for driver assistance; image recognition; speech recognition; natural language processing; neural machine translation and mitosis detection.
DNN Development and Deployment with DIGITS
Developing an optimized DNN is an iterative process. A data scientist may start from a popular network configuration such as "AlexNet" or create a custom network, and then iteratively modify it into a network that is well-suited for the training data. Once they have developed an effective network, data scientists can deploy it and use it on a variety of platforms, including servers or desktop computers as well as mobile and embedded devices such as Jetson TK1 or Drive PX. Figure 1 shows the overall process, broken down into two main phases: development and deployment.
