Schneider Electric smart grid Q&A: Where we're going (and how we'll get there)
By Jesse Berst
I consider Schneider Electric one of the smart grid's Big Five industrials along with ABB, Alstom Grid, General Electric and Siemens. But Schneider has a different mindset. The others originally approached the market from the utility side. Only recently have they begun to expand their customer-facing activities (end user-facing).
Schneider, by contrast, tends to think more from the end-user side given its "medium-voltage" emphasis and its constituent brands such as Square D. Only recently has Schneider begun to expand its utility-facing activities, most notably with the June 2011 acquisition of Telvent.
I thought you might like to hear how Schneider views the market and what it sees coming next. Here's a Q&A with Don Rickey, the man who runs Schneider's infrastructure business in the U.S.
Q: What will it take to help utilities to transform ratepayers, both commercial and residential, into partners in energy management?
This has to be supported by rate or open market pricing that exposes customers to the reality of pricing, much like airlines or hotels. Next, commissions and utilities must look at investing in demand side resources as an alternative to generation. If a kW of capacity costs $2,000, for example, that funding should be available to both sides of the supply/demand equation. Ideally, the energy supplier would develop a relationship with a portfolio of customers committed to continuous improvement. Over the long term, this has significant impact on utility long-range planning.
Q: What are the next steps in enabling auto DR, also known as Demand Response 2.0?
The adoption of open standardswill be the key to enabling DR 2.0. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), several expert working groups, and standards bodies have worked hard to develop a framework of standards that will support vendor development of key equipment to link utilities and their customers. However, this has to be ratified by utilities and their regulatory processes.
Q: Sixty eight percent of commercial building owners say they do NOT have plans to connect their systems to automated smart grid systems in the next three to five years. What is the impact to utilities hoping to enable energy programs powered by the smart grid?
Building owners generally have a 3-5 year planning horizon whereas utilities look out 15-20 years. Utilities understand energy costs could quadruple by 2030 whereas building owners likely anticipate selling any given property well before then. What's likely to happen is that these timelines will intersect when the public recognizes we're in a period of sustained increases in energy costs. At that point, buildings that have been upgraded appropriately will start to leave the other properties behind in market value.
Q: What can we do as an industry to motivate commercial building owners?
Pay them. These are businesses with financial goals to be met. Margins are slim, so every dollar spent must be relatively risk free and have a clear path to the required return. If a building can provide a consistent megawatt of load reduction, how is that different from a megawatt of generation? It's closer to the point of need, it's cleaner, and it's more efficient. Given that, shouldn't there be a consistent long-range program of investment capital available, just as there is for generation projects?
We've seen the value of resource portfolios assembled to provide demand responsecapacity in wholesale markets. It would be just as valuable to have a portfolio of motivated building owners assembled into a portfolio committed to continuous improvement in energy demand.
However, most commercial buildings have tenants. Those tenants, not the building owner, pay for energy, but they do not want to pay for capital improvements that benefit the owner. Until tenants and owners hold each other accountable for responsible energy stewardship, long-range improvements will be difficult. That solution will require political leadership.
Q: What's next for your business unit? Given the broad issues we've just discussed, what are the main themes going forward?
Schneider Electric's Infrastructure business will continue to focus on completing the structural integration of Telvent, which will be key to the initiatives Schneider Electric's Infrastructure business is focused on. For instance, through the integration of Telvent, Schneider Electric will move forward with deploying our Smart City Solutions for targeted metro areas. These performance-based solutions will enable cities to make needed infrastructure investments, funded by cost reduction delivered through optimized, smarter, more efficient infrastructure solutions.
For utilities, we will focus on delivering distribution grid automation and energy efficiencysolutions to improve safety and reliability for their customers. The release of Struxureware for Grid software suite will complete our EcoStruxure offering, enabling efficient connection of supply and demand, and leading to improved reliability and lower cost operation for electricity suppliers and enabling end users to optimize their cost by making (either automated or manual) choices in how they use electricity.
We are also focused on providing solutions for the shale industry. Shale provides the U.S. with an opportunity to reduce dependence on foreign oil and is a cleaner fuel source for generation. Schneider Electric has developed a large portfolio of smart (upstream, midstream, downstream) solutions for the rapidly growing industry.
Don Rickey is Senior Vice President, U.S. Infrastructure Business at Schneider Electric. His division offers solutions for utilities, for oil and gas, and for other customers who use medium-voltage equipment. Prior to joining Schneider Electric, he held a variety of technical and management positions with Central Illinois Light Company and General Electric. He has an AAS, Industrial Electronics from Illinois Central College, a BS, Electrical Engineering from Bradley University and an MBA from St. Ambrose University.

Miesenböck says one of the most difficult parts of the experiment was deciding which particular nerve cells to target with the remote control system. "To ascertain that the system actually worked, it wasn't clear how we could measure activation in the neurons in moving, freely behaving organisms," he explains.
The breakthrough, he says, came when they decided to target a small set of nerve cells in the fly called the giant fiber system. The giant fiber system controls very specific, stereotypical movements such as escape movements, jumping, and the beginnings of flight. If the flies engaged in these behaviors after the giant fiber neurons had been outfitted and "operated" with the remote control, Miesenböck and Lima reasoned, they could be sure that their system was working.
After genetically engineering the flies to express the ion channel in the giant fiber system cells and using the tiniest of injections to place the caged ATP inside the flies, the researchers shone a ultraviolet-wavelength laser in brief, millisecond pulses at the flies trapped inside a glass-domed arena. On command, the flies began a series of escape movements--extending their legs, jumping, and opening and rapidly flapping their wings.
The laser-triggered remote controls in the giant fiber system worked about 63 percent of the time, while remote controls placed in other nerve cells that were targets of the giant fiber system worked 82 percent of the time, the researchers concluded. Lima and Misenböck also equipped another set of nerve cells called dopaminergic neurons with the remote controls, boosting the

Migrating SEPM between servers
We recently purchased new servers and will be moving SEPM 11.x over from our old server to the new server. My question is how do I go about doing this without orphaning the users, and just making it as simple and quick with as little down time as possible.
We want to keep the same settings, packages, etc. but we do not want to have to reinstall SEP on every system (currently 35+).

You can do this following this KBA

You can easily replace the sylink file on each machine using the SEPM. See here:

You're don't create anything.
You just push a new sylink to the clients for them to reconnect.
You can export them to a text file and once you're ready, just import the list into the new SEPM and it will replace the sylink on each.
Just an option, but it's up to you for what you think is best.

For 35 machines, replacing sylink would be the easiest, at least in my opion. I wish I had to deal with that few :)
Just make sure to have a physical list of them, for disaster recovery purposes in case you do need to manually touch a few...

There could be 2 possible steps to perform the migration.
1. Recommended or the best way:
Configure the second new server as a replication partner of the existing one. Then configure the "management server list to point the clients to the new server. Keep the setup for some time so that all the clients receives the policy and then delete the replication and de-commission the old server. Following this method will have no downtime and orphan clients.
Note: Following this method needs the server name to be different as well.
· Reference Documents:
URL: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH105928
URL: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH104582
Note: Please follow the "Defining Management Server Lists" section. Remember you need to set up the new server as Priority 1.
2. Disaster recovery Method:
Follow the normal Disaster Recovery Method to install the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager on the new server. This method may lead into downtimes and orphan clients.
· Reference documents:
URL: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH104389

Agree with Brian. Replace the sylink file with Replacre Tool is best way to remotely migrate the clients.
Sumit G.
So I am attempting the replication method today. I am on step 3, about changing/accepting the Server Information, and when I clicked next (Server name, Port 8443) it says the "The server port is being used by another application. Please choose a new port."
So if I choose a new port, I will need to change the port in IIS as well, and this can cause a big issue, no?
No , this is a different port, 8443 is secure tomcat port.
communication port is 8014...
if you have replication already set then you need to delete and initiate a new one. From the above link
Note: For change in server port in case of Multiple Symantec Endpoint Protection Managers, we would have to delete the existing replication partners and re-add them with the changed server port for the consoles to replicate data successfully
The new server (where I want to replicate to) I created a DB, same name, but also same information as the current one, and when I tried to overwrite it, it gave me an overwrite issue.
I installed SEP as it shows in the documentation, and when trying to replicate it is a pain in the buttox. I am trying to follow what the KB says, but it is not working. I have uninstalled and removed the old DB, going to reinstall now
I am on the edge here of losing my mind with this. The fact that this is so damn complicated and does not work is a bloody joke
That does not work...either it cannot find the server, or cannot overwrite sem5.dat or whatever it is.
So how does Syslink recognize systems? I tried to deploy the new management server policies on my own system, but it does not recognize my DHCP address. How can I go about fixing this? It says THE NETWORK PATH WAS NOT FOUND, usually to fix this I disable Windows Firewall, which is already disabled, so what is going on?
Installed new SEPM?
then we will use the Sylink replacer which is used to distribute the communication file called Sylink.xml
For no network path error message, firewall, simple filesharing, remote registry serive and C$ admin share should been enabled. it needs all the same requisites what migration and deployment wizard needs
try pushing it on few more machines to check if you are still gettting the same messages.
once done you need to manually export and import policy from old sepm to new sepm
Says that I am not apart of the Local Administrators (I am), nor the Domain Admins (I am).
This tool is horrible. By the time I figure this out, I could just uninstall 35+ clients and do it manually.
For the Migration and Deployment, when I usually disable Windows Firewall, it usually goes through. I tried this and it still does not find it.

MINNEAPOLIS Even the Gophers were surprised at the outcome of last weekend's game against then-No. 1 Boston College. The Minnesota men's hockey team routed the Eagles 8-1 at Mariucci Arena in a battle of the nation's top two teams. Nine days later, there was another meeting of No. 1 and No. 2 only this time the Gophers were the top-ranked team. And with a 4-1 win on an unusual Tuesday night game over visiting Notre Dame, Minnesota showed that the lopsided win over Boston College was no fluke as the Gophers once again played like the best team in college hockey. "I just think it proved that everyone came back from break ready to play," said Gophers forward Nate Condon, who scored the game's first goal just 1:21 into the first period. "Everyone's coming back playing their A-game right now." There was plenty of hype surrounding Minnesota's game against Boston College. Not only were the Eagles ranked No. 1 in the country, but they were also the team that knocked the Gophers out of ...

it used to be amazing when i was a child.. and it was the only franchise that specialized in grilled chicken.. but both statements are outdated now.. there's nothing special about it now.. dry overcooked grills with good rice and average salad,, not a place to look forward to
Something went wrong to their kofta sandwich. But any other thing is just great! Just need to return back to the old kofta sandwich is was so much better than this one.

Always consistent
Have used for years and continues to please
Nice light conditioning spray. Makes my hair more controllable without weighing it down.
Good product, quite expensive though
This is a product I regularly use and I love it. It smells wonderful and is a great leave-in hair conditioner.
Leaves my hair shiney and no frizz
As always 5 star service!
It does what is says.
Easy to navigate website - quick and efficient delivery
I love my hair after using this product - very sleek and not greasy at all. My hair are very fine but this product is really good on them.
Goods are despatched in good order, very promptly. This order was problematic as I was promised 10% discount on the Bare Minerals products, but couldn't see where to get the discount at the checkout and ended up getting charged full price. I had to contact the firm and just hope that they have credited my card.
I love it, brilliant. Best leave in conditioner I've ever had.

I detest calorie counting, writing down and looking up calories, measuring even with the wonderful apps and calculators out there. So, as I start a "Biggest Loser" program at work I decided to take a baby step and instead of figuring out calories, I committed to just writing down everything that goes in my mouth. It is easier than I thought. After just three days of doing that, I lost 1.5 lbs.Next step in a week or two I will do portions and calories. I'm a female age 58 with 35 lbs. to loose.

Any documentaries?
- cardoso 28 Jan 2007 07:30Hi all,
I thought this might be a good way to start off this topic...
I think the clips sold here will probably be used in many lower budget documentaries. So I think watching quality documentaries might give us ideas of what producers are looking for in our clips.
Does anyone have any good documentaries they might recommend? Shall we start a list?
- jip 28 Jan 2007 13:01He,
Great idea... I'm trying to think of some documentaries, but I can only think of documentaries in which they don't use stockvideo
- lee_wilson 28 Jan 2007 23:25what about a documentary about the online stock footage market, surley that's got to be full of stock footage ?
- varius 29 Jan 2007 11:13Not really a documentary, but I'd like to recommend a movie called "Koyaanisqatsi". It's what got me into this business. It's a treasure chest full of ideas for every stock footage producer.

Good suggestion, but in can easily lead to Na-qoy-qatsi: (nah koy' kahtsee) 'A life of killing each other' as already noticed in some of the forum entries where criticism is used more likely for putting-down than putting-in (as in input, positive and/or negative). Nobody is perfect and some 'productions' might have just that tad of imperfection that might make it 'perfect' for a certain customer. Use of stock footage has an aura of using 'cheap stuff' and that for sure only is true when it comes to the exchange of money, not the realization of ideas and creativity. I find a lot clips here that 'I would never buy' that does not make them less 'good' or 'valuable' for others. I am in the CG & media market for over 20 years and I know, that nothing is predictable. A certain quality is required but that is guaranteed by the submission process, the rest is as always: 50% creativity, 43% sweat, and 7% taxes. ;)
- ionescu 2 May 2008 12:04What would you think of an entire feature film made from stock footage? Let's say 90 minutes, that is about 180 footage clips of 30''. In HD, that would cost 5400 USD, in SD that would be 2700 USD. I considered 30'' HD would cost 30 USD, and 30'' SD would cost 15 USD. So, roughly, a feature film would be up to 10,000 USD in HD or up to 5000 USD in SD. I think it is worth to give it a try. What you think of it?
P.S: Do not forget the taxes! :)
- ironstrike 2 May 2008 22:36Shhhh Ionescu!!
You just discovered hollywood's secret formula for making movies!
lol, I think most directors have their own artistic vision, and they only try to use stock footage when they necessarily have to. : )
BTW Ionescu I really like your equalizer clip:
... And unlike Bestmoose, I haven't been in media for 20 years, but in my personal experience show business is highly competitive, and just like any other business you can use marketing research to predict what people want to buy. Its like predicting the weather, its not always right but you can come close.
- RekindlePhoto 3 May 2008 02:02Great idea, you are welcome to purchase one each of all my clips here at P5 to get the documentary started. I think that would give you a great start to show all of us ;)
- ionescu 8 May 2008 08:15
- asiaview 5 Jun 2008 03:37Hey guys , I registered at p5 less than 2 week. its my first post here . I do documenteries in the philippines, I also shoot for others from deffrent part of the world. I am stuck with lots of footage from Asia. I will be a good idea to upload all of them . Thank guys for idea and Thanks to P5.
- Deddi 27 Jun 2008 07:50hii there All,....
I just registered in pond5 only yesterday, i also has alot of footage for the agency or company who want to produce the documentary or news need ( include aftermacth of Aceh tsunami 3 years ago in Aceh darussalam province part of Indonesia. and the problem i cant upload my clip.
- ionescu 17 Apr 2012 08:28Any news?

The countdown to the finale begins as "America's Got Talent" announces the Top 12 contestants who will perform on Sept. 9 for the chance to compete in the Finals. Platinum-selling recording artist and former finalist Jackie Evancho will return to the "AGT" stage to perform live during next week's results show on Sept. 10. (9-10 p.m. ET).

"Awakening" is available for pre-order now at Amazon(http://smarturl.it/awakening-amazon-cd) and iTunes (http://smarturl.it/je-awakening).
In 2010, Evancho made her television debut at the age of 10 after a jaw-dropping audition on "America's Got Talent." Shortly after becoming the runner-up in the competition Evancho signed to Columbia Records. Her debut EP, "O Holy Night" (2010) went platinum with sales exceeding 1 million copies. Now 14, Evancho has sold out performances across the country and will headline an international tour shortly after her album release. "Awakening" includes several original anthems such as "Take Me There" and "Open Fields of Grace" and will also include renditions of notable classics such as "With or Without You" (U2) and "Ave Maria" (Caccini/Vavilov.) In addition to her album release, Evancho recently signed a deal for a PBS special set to air in December.
As the competition heats up on "America's Got Talent," contestants get one step closer to the Finals and the chance to be named the most talented act in America. Following the second semi-final show this week, AMERICA voted for their favorite acts to complete this season's Top 12.

My GymRead MoreIn more than 200 locations in 25 countries, the staff at My Gym aims to nurture children's physical and mental development through engaging classes. Each gym houses small-scale fitness equipment with soft construction that inspires kiddies to play safely. Instructors lead kids in song, dance, jump, and exercise classes, all structured to fine-tune motor skills, critical thinking, and self-esteem. Children as young as 6 weeks can giggle and crawl in My Gym classes, which also include options for kids up to 13 years old. Beyond scheduled classes, the gyms also host play sessions that discard lesson plans and encourage youngsters to cut loose. Open play gives them free rein of the gym's playground equipment while under supervision. During Parents' Night Out events, the attentive staff watches over kids while parents enjoy a night of grown-up conversation or a chance to hone their Marco Polo skills for future family bouts.1020 Keolu DriveKailua, HI US
Wet Feet HawaiiRead MoreWhen Jeff Chang and Karen Lar Rieu—the brother-sister team behind Wet Feet Hawaii—aren't scrawling on the ocean's waves with their paddles, they're usually in their shop chatting with customers about their experiences. Behind their counter, they sell and rent gear, and orchestrate a team of paddleboard racers, an ocean conservationist, and water enthusiasts as they lead lessons and tours. During the eco tour, a conservationist—who was the first woman to cross the Molokai Channel on a standup paddleboard—teaches the basics while leading tour members to conservation areas to expound on the problem of plastics in the ocean. On the downwind tours, some of Hawaii's top standup-paddleboard racers guide and coach guests to tackle the infamous downwind runs of Oahu. With four different levels to suit all experiences and 5- to 12-mile runs, tour members can challenge themselves without challenging every dolphin they see to a race.

Fist-fighting, funky underwear, and 8 more bizarre NYE celebrations
New Year's Traditions
We've all got our annual New Year's traditions for the change of the calendar year. Some of us watch the ball drop in Times Square, while others stay up all night drinking, hoping we wake up somewhere recognizable on New Year's Day.
There are a ton of different traditions around the world, each intent on getting a head start on a prosperous and positive new start on life. Here are ten of the oddest (to us) from around the globe.

bear costumes
In Romania, some folks dress up in bear furs or costumes and walk the streets to ward off evil. That's surely one way to keep things from going wrong next year.
Photo: Carlos Carmonamedina/Flickr CC
If you're Danish, you might hurl your old plates at the doorways of friends and family, or neighbor's you want to have good luck in the coming year. Plus? You get to buy new plates!
Photo: noricum/Flickr CC
If you want to bring about specific kinds of good fortune in the coming year, you'll wear different color undies in some South American countries. Red means you're in the mood for love.
Photo: Esquire
Seriously, I think the French have it right: eat some sweet carb-loaded food and call it good. Pancakes are a traditional New Year's treat.
Photo: rob_rob2001/Flickr CC
Dr. Doolittle has nothing on farmers in Belgium who wish their livestock a happy New Year in the hopes that they'll be healthy and productive in the coming months. If they talk back (in Romania and Hungary), that's supposed to be bad luck. Or you've been drinking too much.
Photo: Rachel Kramer/Flickr CC
Can you stuff 12 grapes in your mouth? If so, you just might have a good year, according to folks in Spain. If not, well, good luck.
Photo: Mohamad Khedr/Flickr CC
The Italians might have those French pancake-eaters beat with a tradition of public kissing in places like St Mark's square in Venice.
Photo: llee_wu/Flickr CC
One tradition in the tiny village of Takanakuy, Peru lets people with conflicts settle them Fight Club style and then start the year with a fresh slate. No resentments!
Photo: Daniel Parra
If you're in Siberia, chances are there are plenty of spots along the coast where you can go ice diving to plant trees under the frozen waters. You won't catch us doing this in Alaska, I'll tell you that.
Photo: Telegraph
Celebrations in Denmark include jumping off of chairs into the New Year, kids in the Phillippines jump twelve times to grow taller, and beach partiers in Brazil jump over seven waves at midnight while making seven wishes. Jumping is a thing on New Year's Eve, apparently.

Anyone can be passionate, but it takes real lovers to be silly.
I am a down to earth person who is usually smiling and happy and I find that life flows easily because of this! I am well-rounded and adventurous and love to dabble in a wide variety of physical and intellectual activities. Whether it is taking a creative writing or ceramics class, trying a challenging new recipe in the kitchen, a tennis match, rock climbing or training for a triathlon. I am looking for someone who shares my love for living life to the fullest and has a similar bite off more than you can chew attitude. It is not about being perfect or good at everything as I fumble through a lot of things. Rather I am looking for someone that shares an attitude of growth and has a diversity of interests. A relationship is never boring if both people are growing and sharing new ideas and experiences. I am genuinely looking for someone to build and share my life with. I like a confident man that shows respect for himself and others. I enjoy a man who is well educated, driven and keeps me on my toes - a sharp wit is a plus! He is loving, kind, dependable and trustworthy. He can adapt to different situations and is just as comfortable in a pair of flip flops as he is at a black tie event. Shirtless photos need not apply. :)

Bad image X3 - Reunion for Linux and 256.xx drivers
After a recent update from the 195.36.24 driver to the 256.53 version I noticed the graphics in the game where very odd. It looks like all textures where lost. For example - with the 195.xx drivers a station is detailed and you can see wiring, tubes, lights etc. However - using the 256.xx drivers all you can see is a woolly "outline" with vague gray swirls inside it (I try to post some pictures later). The spaceship (visible hull) itself is totally black without any texture or detail - just a pitch-black blob.
I tried some older drivers, and I noticed everything went fine until the jump to the 256.xx drivers. Every driver in the 256.xx series gives this bad image.
I am not sure whom to blame here. However - when the game runs without any problem on the 195.xx drivers, and give problems with the 256.xx drivers, it is probably an driver issue.
Until now I can use the older 195.xx drivers, but when older drivers are no longer available in the repositories it will give problems. As a example - Using Fedora 13 and installing a downloaded driver by "hand" gives big, big troubles. Compiling goes wrong, and even if compiling works you can still end up with a totally frozen system after reboot. The only descriptions I can get is for the repository-install.. very frustrating..
Does someone else has this game (X3 - Reunion) and maybe the same problems? And better - has anybody a possible solution to this problem?
Thanks in advance..:)
Re: Bad image X3 - Reunion for Linux and 256.xx drivers
I have made some screenshots of the problems. Notice I have tried both 195.x and 256.x drivers on several distro's (openSUSE 11.3, Fedora 13, PCLinuxOS, Mandriva 2010.1 etc.) and the results are the same on every distro. The 195.x drivers give a perfect image, and the 256.x drivers give a terrible image.
Has anyone any idea what is going wrong here? This is really important, because installing the older drivers by hand give problems on some distro's, and that problems can increase if more and more disto's have no native packages because the drivers are too old...
Anyway here are the screenshots:
195.x driver opening screen:
256.x driver opening screen:
195.x playing screen:
256.x playing screen:
I really hope somebody can tell me what is wrong here!
Re: Bad image X3 - Reunion for Linux and 256.xx drivers
I get the same issue with:
OpenGL renderer string: GeForce 8600 GT/PCI/SSE2
OpenGL version string: 3.3.0 NVIDIA 256.53
Re: Bad image X3 - Reunion for Linux and 256.xx drivers
can you read http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=46678 and generate a good report with the debug info as instructed after the issue appears ?
also can you attach some sort of X3 console log?
Re: Bad image X3 - Reunion for Linux and 256.xx drivers
I will try the 260.19.06 drivers. I think I can make some time today, so you will get your answer within a day or so..
I will see if there are any errors when starting from the console, but -as far as I can remember- I did not see anything unusual when I tried that before. I will try to attach the asked files.
Be back soon... :)
Re: Bad image X3 - Reunion for Linux and 256.xx drivers

Alright - I tried the 260.19.06 drivers, and they seem to work in openSUSE without any problem.
Unfortunately - they are (not yet) available any repository for Fedora 13, so I have to figure out how to install the driver " by hand" (or using the old 195.x driver for as long as there are kernel driver package updates available). Problem is - there are no good descriptions how to install a driver " by hand" in Fedora 13. All descriptions are for the repository install, and if I use the standard install I use with all other distro' s everything locks up and I cannot even use the terminal to log in. I have no idea how to do this correct in Fedora. Anybody has a good description?
Oh - and there where no error messages in the terminal window for all drivers (195.x, 256.x, 260.x), exept in Mandriva -you get something about cranberra- but that seems to make no difference. So - no error messages at all.
Anyway - you asked for the report, and here it is below.
Hope this is enough information.
Re: Bad image X3 - Reunion for Linux and 256.xx drivers
Re: Bad image X3 - Reunion for Linux and 256.xx drivers
I will definitely take a closer look at it. At first glance it does not seem to be that complicated, so I think this will be the answer for now...
Thank you very much..
Still - I am very curious what is the cause of the problem. What is happening in the 256.x driver that is creating this strange image? Although it is not longer critical, I would like to know if there is a answer to that question..:)

Visit Cambodia on a food tour from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap

- People watch as you dine alfresco in the busy streets of Phnom Penh
- Discover the art of rice paper making and fruit drying in a local village

Former state Rep. Mike Obermueller of Eagan is getting a second chance to unseat Republican U.S. Rep. John Kline in the 2nd Congressional District.
Obermueller, an attorney who lost to Kline in 2012, won the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party endorsement on the first ballot in a three-way contest Saturday at the party's convention at South St. Paul High School. The other candidates, political newcomers Thomas Craft and Paula Overby, both of Eagan, conceded before the vote tally was announced.
Craft and Overby both pledged not to challenge the endorsed candidate in the Aug. 12 DFL primary.
Obermueller told the delegates he would be a stronger candidate this time around.
"When I ran in 2012, I promised I would finish the job, even if it took two runs," he said.
Although Obermueller was defeated by Kline, a six-term veteran, two years ago, he cut the incumbent's margin to 54 percent to 46 percent, down from Kline's 26-point spread over a DFL challenger in 2010.
"We had only a 5 1/2-month race the last time around, a very short window to raise the money and do the things we needed," Obermueller said in an interview. "We have not stopped, though, since that time. We've done dozens of parades, festivals and town hall meetings to shake hands and tell people that there's a real chance to change this district."
He plans to campaign against Kline on three main issues.
"I think the big issue between us is the difference in how he treats the middle class," Obermueller said. "He's been giving huge tax cuts away to millionaires and pushing that burden back onto seniors and the middle class. I think we ought to grow the middle class because that's the only way to get our economy up and running again."
The second issue, he said, is Social Security and Medicare for seniors. "He wants to privatize it. I want to make sure we're shoring it up," Obermueller said.
Finally, he criticized Kline for failing to support pay equity for women and allowing women to make their own health decisions. "That's a big contrast between us."
In response, Kline spokesman Troy Young issued a statement saying: "Minnesotans want results instead of petty, partisan attacks, and they recognize that whether it's ensuring our Minnesota National Guard receive the overdue bonus pay they earned or championing a bipartisan compromise with the president to prevent student loan rates from doubling, Congressman Kline is fighting for them."
Obermueller, 41, served one term in the Minnesota House, riding in on the "Obama tide" in 2008 and getting swept out by the Republican wave in 2010.
He entered the convention with endorsements from several labor unions, while the other candidates had none.
Suburban Dakota and Scott counties cast more than two-thirds of the votes in the 2nd District, which extends southeast to Northfield and the farm country of Goodhue and Wabasha counties.
Kline carried it handily before redistricting in 2012 added Democratic strongholds in northern Dakota County. The Cook Political Report "partisan voting index" gives Republicans a 1-percentage-point advantage in the district. President Barack Obama carried it in 2008 and 2012, but by the narrowest of margins -- 49.1 percent to 49 percent -- over Mitt Romney in the last election.
Kline, however, holds a commanding fundraising advantage. He started this month with $1.7 million in his campaign treasury, compared with Obermueller's $238,211. But the DFLer said that while he expects to be outspent, his campaign is "on pace to raise the $2 million we need to win."
Earlier this month, the Rothenberg Political Report changed its rating of the race from "Republican favored" to "safe Republican."

Over 550 European travellers and bloggers took part as food critics in cheap flight specialist Skyscanner's second annual study of the quality of on-board culinary offerings.
In the low-cost airline category, Turkish airline Pegasus, which operates flights from London to many destinations in Turkey, took the number one position. British airlines dominated the leader board, with Flybe in second place, Monarch in third, and easyJet in fourth place. Spanish airline Vueling also scored highly, taking the number five spot.
In the short-haul category it was Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) that triumphed. Germany's Lufthansa came in second place and last year's winner Turkish Airlines took third place ahead of British Airways, whilst Russia's Aeroflot also ranked well, coming in fifth place.
In the long-haul dining category, Dutch airline KLM claimed the number one position, followed by Aeroflot, SAS, Air France and BA. Overall, SAS, Aeroflot and British Airways performed well, each appearing in the top five for both their long and short haul meals.
A Skyscanner survey of more than 1,500 international travellers also revealed that 54% of air travellers believe the overall quality of airline food is currently good, while three-quarters think that it is improving compared with previous years.
In fact, airline food now appears to be so good that 43% admitted to being envious of their neighbour's choice of meal.

Skyscanner's Victoria Bailie commented:
"Airline food used to have a reputation for being bland, but the quality of in-flight meals has improved massively as airlines place greater importance on serving good food at altitude. The majority of airlines have now realised that the quality of the meals does play an important part in airline choice and can sway regular flyers to travel with them."

Dogs wear 'pet me' vests at airport hoping to relieve your stress
As someone who never own a dog - Andrew Walsh thinks a new program being implemented at airports is a great idea.

The Los Angeles International Airport has 30 therapy dogs and is hoping to expand its program. The dogs are intended to take the stress out of travel: the crowds, long lines and terrorism concerns.

Hey everyone! I hope you have all had a great week and are enjoying life! This blog post I decided to talk about an experience that I had last week in regards to a paper I was writing. I will also talk about one of my favorite online delivery food services here at Boulder!
When I think about my strengths and weaknesses when it comes to academics, I like to think that I excel in subjects like writing but struggle with math and science. However, this past week, I got stumped on a paper. It is for one of my hardest Communication classes. The main focus of the class is rhetoric, which is extremely confusing to me. Our first paper was due this past Thursday and I was really struggling with it. I decided to take my draft to the Writing Center located in Norlin Library. This is a totally free service for all CU students. It does not matter what year or major you are. They have professors and graduate students that volunteer their time to help students like me out! Before going in, I was a little skeptical, because I had never used that service before. I had heard great things about it but I was just apprehensive I guess. However, when I got out of the session, I felt SO GOOD! They helped me with my transitions, my thesis, and some other technical writing techniques. I wont know what I got on my paper for another week or two but I feel like I did really great! I think without the help of the writing center, I would have struggled to make my paper a cohesive one!
Here is the website for the writing center (which is located in Norlin Library on campus) : http://www.colorado.edu/pwr/writingcenter.html
(On a side note: Since it is Fall, which is one of my favorite seasons, all these pictures on this post are pictures that I took on campus...so I hope you enjoy!)
Since today is Sunday, and the Broncos football game comes on in a few hours, I am trying to get all my homework done so I can just sit back, relax, and cheer on the Broncos! I just realized that I don't have much in my refrigerator! Unfortunately, there isn't really anything in my fridge that I can make for dinner. I am a little to lazy (it is Sunday) to go down to King Soopers which is one of the best grocery store places here in Boulder. I love King Soopers because their quality of produce, cheese, meat, and all other foods are great and the prices are really affordable. So... since I have decided not to go to King Soopers, I am going to order dinner later from this awesome website called HungryBuffs ( hungrybuffs.com )! This website was actually started by a CU graduate! It has tons of restaurants in Boulder that are available for either pickup or delivery. The website is really nice because all the restaurants are in one place and you don't have to go searching on different websites and things like that! They have restaurants on there that serve Japanese, Chinese, Italian, American, dessert... the list goes on and on. All you have to do is just look at the menus that are provided online, click whatever items you want, and then submit! I also love hungrybuffs because the delivery drivers are super fast and really nice! Anyway, this is an awesome service for CU students who are either feeling a little lazy and don't feel like cooking (like me today), or just feel like ordering food from great restaurants here in Boulder from the comfort of their own home! I hope you all have a wonderful week and I hope you come back next week to check out another new blogpost!

From Newton's Law of Gravity to the Black-Scholes model used by bankers to predict the markets, equations, are everywhere - and they are fundamental to everyday life. Seventeen Equations that Changed the World examines seventeen groundbreaking equations that have altered the course of human history. He explores how Pythagoras's Theorem led to GPS and SatNav; how logarithms are applied in architecture; why imaginary numbers were important in the development of the digital camera, and what is really going on with Schrodinger's cat. Entertaining, surprising and vastly informative, Seventeen Equations that Changed the World is a highly original exploration - and explanation - of life on earth.
