Top-ranked Garfield beat Bothell for the third time this season, again coming from behind, in a 62-50 state quarterfinal triumph.
TACOMA — With his team down four at halftime against Bothell, the No. 3 team in the state, Garfield High School coach Ed Haskins reminded his players that they'd been there before.
Earlier this season, Garfield trailed Bothell by three at halftime before winning by 15. In the locker room at the Tacoma Dome on Thursday, Haskins let his group know they could do it again.
The Bulldogs heeded Haskins' words and roared back again to beat Bothell 62-50 in the Class 4A boys basketball state quarterfinals. It was Garfield's third win against Bothell this season, all by at least 12 points.
"Honestly, we knew it wasn't going to be an easy win," Garfield senior Trevaunté Williams said. "That was the last thing on our mind. If anything, we thought the deficit might have been a little bigger at half just because of who Bothell is. But we were ready for the whole nine today."

Indeed, Garfield handled its business like the poised, talented and top-ranked team that it is. The Bulldogs held high-scoring Bothell to just three points in the third quarter and led by six.
Garfield (24-1) won its 24th consecutive game and will play No. 6 Curtis (25-2) in the semifinals at 3:45 p.m. Friday. WesCo rivals Arlington (22-3) and Jackson (25-0) meet in the other semifinal at 5:30.
The Bulldogs clamped down on Bothell guards Zach LaVine and Perrion Callandret. LaVine, the area's leading scorer, finished with 16 points — 12 below his average. Callandret scored 12.
"That was the worst matchup for both of us," said LaVine, a senior who will play at UCLA next year. "That should have been the state-championship game. I felt like whichever one of us got past this game was going to win it all. All those dudes are my friends, so best of luck to them. I hope they win it."
Fresh off scoring a season-high 35 points in rallying Garfield from a late deficit to beat South Kitsap in overtime in the regionals last week, Williams had 21 points and 12 rebounds against Bothell. Tucker Haymond, Garfield's leading scorer, added 19 points and nine rebounds.
Garfield won despite shooting a lower percentage than Bothell because the Bulldogs clamped down defensively.
"We came here to win the tournament," Haskins said. "Can we do it? I think we have as good a chance as any team. We'll just stay focused. You didn't see a lot of celebrating after our game."
Curtis 62,
Newport 40
Curtis might lack the star power of other teams, but the Vikings make up for it with their defense.
And they do so in a big way.
Newport learned that firsthand as Curtis' defensive pressure wore down Newport.
"We kept talking to our kids about keep wearing them down," Curtis coach Tim Kelly said. "And I think that's what happened."
Newport (18-9) hung tough through three quarters, trailing by six at halftime and by seven at the end of the third. But the Knights scored just three in the fourth quarter.
Dominic Robinson scored 18 points for Curtis. Isaac Dotson had 14 for Newport.
Arlington 72, Richland 60
Arlington, which started playing its best basketball at the end of the season, proved once and for all that the Eagles no longer can be considered an under-the-radar team.
No. 10 Arlington used a big second half to pull away from fifth-ranked Richland (19-5).
"Keep picking against us," Arlington coach Nick Brown said. "Keeping picking. We love that. These guys are just phenomenal."
Arlington led by just five at halftime before turning it on. Richland shooters struggled for most of the game, particularly the second half. The Bombers shot just 39 percent.
Terry Dawn led the Eagles with 23 points and 13 rebounds. Noah Jones added 20 points and eight rebounds for Arlington.
Jackson 55,
Central Valley 47
Dan Kingma provided second-ranked Jackson with a much-needed spark when his leaning three-pointer at the end of the third quarter gave the Timberwolves a four-point lead.
"That was definitely a big shot," Jackson coach Steve Johnson said. "One of the keys was just surviving the rough start and not getting too far down."
Jason Todd led undefeated Jackson with 19 points and eight rebounds, and Kingma and Brian Zehr each added 12 points.
No. 4 Central Valley (22-3), last year's state runner-up, led 15-6 in the first quarter, their biggest lead.
Adam Chamberlain and Austin Rehkow each scored 13 for the Bears from Spokane Valley.
In the semifinals, Jackson will play Arlington for the third time. Jackson won the first two.

Horse slaughter opponents spur last-minute efforts to kill Oklahoma legislation
With legislation that would allow the slaughter of horses in Oklahoma heading down the stretch, opponents mounted up last-minute efforts Sunday to rein in the legislation's momentum.
Speakers criticized the legislation during a news conference at a horse ranch in northeastern Oklahoma City and released poll results showing a majority of Oklahomans oppose the two measures that would overturn a 50-year ban on horse slaughter.
The Senate is expected to vote early this week on House Bill 1999, which would allow horse slaughter but would continue the existing ban on the sale of horse meat for consumption in the state.
A House of Representatives committee is scheduled Wednesday to hear Senate Bill 375, which would revoke the state's 1963 law banning the sale of horse meat and would end the prohibition on horse slaughtering or the sale of horse meat.
No comment
Senate President Pro Tem Brian Bingman, R-Sapulpa, said he expects HB 1999 will win Senate approval.
"If you fully understand what they're doing, it's humane, it's better off for the horses," Bingman said last week.
If it passes without any amendments being added, it would go the governor for her consideration.
Gov. Mary Fallin has a policy of not commenting on whether she will support legislation until she has an opportunity to review the final version.
Paula Bacon, who served as mayor of Kaufman, Texas, when a horse processing plant was operating in her community, talked Sunday about the environmental dangers and the stigma that Oklahoma would face if a similar plant operated in the state.
She said the city filed legal action against the operators of the plant; still, she said the plant caused environmental and economic havoc in her community until it closed in 2007.
"It stigmatizes your community," she said. "Good development does not want to come there.
"You would be better served to have a lead-smeltering plant and sexually oriented businesses all up and down your main drag than to have a horse slaughter plant in your community," Bacon said.
Horseman speaks
John Murrell, a thoroughbred horse owner and breeder and a former board member of the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation, talked of the inhumane treatment horses face being taken to processing plants and the cruel fate that awaits them when they arrive.
"Our horses deserve a much kinder end to their life … than to be sent to a horrific, terrible scary death at a slaughterhouse," said Murrell, of Dallas.
"We as Americans do not raise horses for food. The slaughter process is cruel and inhumane. From the time the horses arrive at the livestock auction and during their transport to slaughter, which in many cases can be horrific and lengthy, the horses endure unspeakable atrocities, including multiple injuries."
Offering an option
Mike Spradling, president of the Oklahoma Farm Bureau, said a processing plant is an alternative for horse owners who can't afford them and are now turning them out on roads, abandoning them on other people's pastures or simply allowing them to starve.
Contacted Sunday, Spradling said a processing plant is only an option for horse owners.
He said he expected about one third of Oklahoma horse owners would sell their unwanted horses to the plant.
"This is a private property rights issue," said Spradling, of Tulsa. "Those are our animals.
"We are in the business of producing food and fiber," Spradling said. "Is it better just to dispose of the animal, euthanize it and put it in a hole … or if there is an option for it ... to go to humans?

Sofia Coppola is known for an aesthetically gorgeous certain kind of film about people in some sort of life transition, wanting to become something else. As Coppola herself says in the Spring 2013 profile of her in the DGA Quarterly, "I don't make the kind of movies that lend themselves to wide releases."
Coppola's films are intimate experiences--whether it's peering into the interior lives of the teen girls in The Virgin Suicides or following Marie Antoinette into Versailles. This is partly from Coppola's signature shot, following a character from behind, which she achieves from using a handheld camera or a dolly shot. This shot she used in her directorial debut with The Virgin Suicides in 1999 helped differentiate the group of boys from merely spying on the girls in the film to focusing more on their own self-consciousness about the girls. As she said in the interview:
It wasn't just showing boys looking at and spying on girls. I wanted to be very clear about translating their perspective, how to get up close to them as they entered these girly spaces.
She talks at length about her upcoming film, The Bling Ring, which will hit theaters in June. Based on the Vanity Fair article, "The Suspects Wore Louboutins," Coppola's film chronicles the true story of a group of teenagers who spent over a year robbing celebrity homes. Here's why she was interested in the topic:
I thought it was such an interesting story and the quotes from the real kids really made an impression. I thought the story said so much about our culture today and how it can affect young people.
Coppola's world for The Bling Ring, she says isn't as visually beautiful as some of the others in her films. However, for visual references, Coppola studied Facebook and MySpace -- so many of the shots in the film look like 'selfies' which in the context of Coppola's intimate directing style, is just as intimate as you can get for getting into a character's inner world.
Coppola also speaks about working with actors, musical choices and her visual references. It's a great, must-read profile of a fascinating director by Carrie Rickey.
Check out the newly released poster for The Bling Ring below.

"Very nicely decorated villa! Fabulous vacation !"
The villa was lovely, but the master bath has black mold around the outside of the tub near the floor, and inside the shower, which was disgusting. Also, the toilets were not very clean in the bowls under the rim.
In the living room, the shelves on the entertainment center were covered with dust! As a neat and meticulous housekeeper , this bothered me. Other than that, we loved the villa, but would not rent it again because of the mold.
The sign outside said WindsorII, so we went to the wrong building initially. The building next door is the only one that says Windsor Place. Confusing!!

"Doesn't get any better"
The drive into Palmetto Dunes is breathtaking in itself. But when we arrived at Windsor Place it was even more beautiful - tucked under so many beautiful trees & the grounds are pristine. The underground parking is a huge plus. The moment we opened the door to this villa we knew we made the right choice. It is very roomy, has extremely comfortable beds (King in master), huge bathrooms, very comfy living furniture and was immaculate in every sense of the word. We felt so much at home & at ease. There is certain kind of calmness as all the rooms overlook the beautiful gardens & the ocean in the distance is just gorgeous. You meander thru the gardens, past the beautiful pool then down the boardwalk to the beach. It couldn't get any better. We stayed a full week & hated to leave. So many great restaurants, shops, golf courses & tons of water sport activities. We knew we had to bring our own beach towels, but we thought that beach/sand chairs would be available. No big deal, a quick trip to Walmart solved that. We have been coming to Hilton Head for over 20 yrs & it's still one of our favorite vacation spots - now Windsor Place is too!

"Best Vacation ever"
Every time my husband and I went on vacation with our daughter and her husband, they would pay half and would end up with the smaller second bedroom. So this year, I looked for weeks to find a condo with 2 master suites. This place was perfect for two couples. The condo was the best we have ever stayed in. The pools and hot tub were very nice and clean. It was fall so a lot of leaves would fall in the pools, but their pool service would clean it every day. We had never been to HH before and was just starting to learn our way around when the week was over. I'm sure we will be back, hopefully to this same condo many times in the future.

"We had a wonderful relaxing week here!"
This condo was beautifully furnished, had all the necessities we could possibly need and we had a fabulously relaxing week! The beds were comfortable, the condo was super clean and the ocean view was spectacular! The short walk to the beach and pool through the beautifully landscaped grounds was just the icing on the cake! The Palmetto Dunes location is one of the prettiest in Hilton Head - really quiet and serene. All in all - a really great vacation!

"Love this place!"
We loved our stay at 2216 Windsor! It was every bit as pretty as the pictures. When we arrived we had everything we needed and the place was spotless. It is confidently located right off the elevator, which was a huge help to my mother with a disability and my four year old son. I do hope this place will be available when we return to the island. We have certainly found "our place" at 2216 Windsor!

"A great family vacation"
Everything was top notch. From the location with the ocean view to the condo itself, we enjoyed each and every moment. The condo is well-equipped and meticulously maintained. The only negative is that the sofa bed is really not that great for sleeping. The pool area with the hot tub and the grill made for fun times for everyone. The walk to the beach is great and it is only a short walk or bike ride on the sand to The Dunes House for a great lunch of fish tacos! We will definitely be back.

"Wonderful place to stay"
We rented Windsor Place 2216 for a week in early March with our two young boys. The home was very nice for our family with plenty of room. The location was fabulous for us with the proximity to the beach, entertainment, and other activities. The only wish we had was that we were just a little closer to the oceanview, the deck was larger and of course the weather was MUCH warmer. We loved the home. Thank you for the use of this property.
"Windsor Place 2216 was awesome"
Our first time to vacation in Hilton Head and we loved it.Palmetto Dunes was beautiful.
Windsor Place 2216 had everything we needed to have a great stay.The two master bedrooms were very nice.We would love to stay there again sometime soon.
At first we had a little trouble getting around town but as the week came to a close we were pretty good at finding our way around.
There were some really good places to eat and some nice shops.
We really liked Frankie Bones.We ate seafood and steak and all was very good.
Would love to have two weeks vacation in Hilton Head.

"Great condo, great location & great pool for the family"
We received excellent service upon check in to the condo. The condo was ready on time and was very clean. The condo has been updated with newer appliances and flooring. It has a nice beachfront decor with comfortable bedding and living space. It was perfect for our family with 2 small children. The location was very nice, quiet and private. We had a nice view of the ocean. The pool and beach were easily accessible. The pool was great for small children! The facilities were all nicely maintained. This was our first time staying in a condo, and it was a great experience. We would definitely stay in this condo again. Thank you to the owners and rental company for taking such good care.

"A home away from home"
We absolutely loved our stay at 2216 Windsor Place. The villa was
beautifully furnished and so comfortable to relax in. We loved the view
even though it was somewhat obstructed by the trees. We were able to
see the ocean, but still be shaded in the heat of the day. The beds
were super comfy and the kitchen was very well supplied (the only thing
I didn't find was a pizza cutter!). It was an easy walk to the beach on
the boardwalk. The grounds are very well kept and the pool was sparkling
clean. Loved the location as we felt secluded but still close to
restaurants and shopping. We rented bikes and were able to ride to
Shelter Cove for the fireworks much more convienant than having to
drive. My only complaint would be in the housekeeping department. We
found some of the kitchen knives in the butcher block were not clean
along with some of the plastic margarita glasses. Also, the floral
comforter cover and shams had several stains on them. All in all, we
were pleasantly surprised at how accurately the pictures depicted the
villa. We hope to be back!

Response from the , Goode Vacation Rentals - 08/08/2009
Thanks for the head up on the knives and glasses. It is difficult on a Saturday turnover to catch everything - especially when items have been "cleaned" (presumably by the guest) and put away. We have had the comforter and shams picked up for cleaning - thanks!
We always encourage our guests to let us know the minute they find something not up to our "5 star standards" so the we can take care of it immediately.

"Great condo, wonderful facility, super time!"
The condo in Windsor Place was very pretty and super comfortable. The two bedrooms each having a king sized beds was perfect for us. The beds and linens were amazing! We enjoyed the balcony with the view (a little obstructed by the trees) and loved being so close to the beach. Parking was never a problem, and the private beach and pool were calm and relaxing. My kids loved the water that sprayed up as well as the waterfall. My 2 year old could be in most of the shallow end all by himself. He had a ball! My 5 year old loved the slightly deeper end. Great place for kids! The bike trails were so much fun, highly recommend renting bikes.
The only complaint I would have is that the bathroom tubs were a bit worn and need need some fixtures replaced.
All and all I would definitely recommend the condo, and we would love to come back again!

"Great Stay in HH"
We truly enjoyed our stay at the Windsor Place property. Location was great - next to the beach with a ocean view and a short drive to restaurants, bars and other attractions. Property was very clean including the pool area.

"March, 2009"
We loved staying in this unit and only wish we could rent it March of each year. Unfortunately, it is not available for 2010, but we are on the wait list for it.
The unit was light, bright, nicely furnished and had a desk for a computer, which was a plus.
The unit also had one hour of tennis daily which we enjoyed using. The kitchen is well stocked and has very nice dishes.
We had difficulty using the wireless internet as no one knew the pass key that was required. We were only able to use the computer because of internet from other units which made our signal low.
All in all, we would definitely rent this unit again - and hope to do so.
"Great place"
The place is very convenient and looks really nice. We really enjoyed the the fact that we just had to go down the elevator to reach the pool and only had about a 100 yard walk to the beach. Highly recommend. The only criticism I had was that the kids pool with water feature was not heated, which in May is still quite cool to the point where we didn't use it. Overall, highly recommended, and we plan on staying in this same unit again.

Vince McMahon downplaying ratings
It is no secret that television ratings have been in a decline for WWE over the years. When asked about that recently, Vince McMahon downplayed its importance. He stated that other television shows on the USA Network are seeing similar declines, some having larger declines than Monday Night Raw. McMahon also stated that times have changed, as a lot of people are no longer watching television like they used to because we are now in a digital age.
February 11, 2016
Vince McMahon on Big Show
A post on YouTube where WWE CEO Vince McMahon talks about Big Show dancing and singing with Olivia Munn on a television show.
January 16, 2016
WWE PPV at MSG
In case you haven't noticed, WWE has avoided doing pay per view and television events at Madison Square Garden. The reason for that is because there is a higher cost of production from that venue than normal. Vince McMahon still loves the place, as he considered that the home base of his promotion for years. The recent Network special was done because it did not cost as much as a regular pay per view.
October 14, 2015
Low WWE ratings
Whenever television ratings go down, Vince McMahon and his paranoia go up. He is in that mood nowadays because his numbers have been declining at a rapid rate. There is a fear within WWE that if the ratings drop below 2.0, which is not that far off, then USA Network executives are going to come calling with some questions. At that point, McMahon is going to make life a living hell for the people who are around him backstage.
October 3, 2015
WWE low ratings
When it comes to television ratings, Vince McMahon is probably one of the most paranoid people in the entertainment industry. It is being said that he is going crazy backstage nowadays because WWE has seen a drop in their numbers. To combat this, the CEO is reaching into his pockets and bringing in the heavy hitters. Brock Lesnar and Undertaker are being added to several episodes of Monday Night Raw.
September 30, 2015
Vince McMahon skipping Smackdown
Just to give you an idea of how important the company views the Tough Enough series, Vince McMahon has started to skip out on the Smackdown taping each week so that he can fly down to Florida to be on the set of the reality television show. For years, the CEO would always be on set to direct things, so this is quite the change in mentality.
July 25, 2015
WWE in Italy
TNA wasn't the only wrestling promotion finalizing a new television deal in Italy this week. Vince McMahon did so as well. He has secured a contract that will enable WWE to keep broadcasting their programming in that country until the year 2020. The promotion has been with Sky Italia since 2003. The network stated that the business partnership between the two sides have been mutually beneficial and should continue on for years.
June 4, 2015
WWE in Montreal
The next time that WWE rolls into Montreal, it will more than likely be a live event instead of a television taping. The company was bothered to learn earlier today that ticket sales were a bit stagnant. There were plans in place to taper off the entire top section. That is something that Vince McMahon absolutely hates to do because it makes his shows look small. There is a good chance that a lot of free tickets were handed out.
May 4, 2015
Total Divas is first place
You can thank the controversial Kardashian clan for the latest accomplishment by WWE. Since their reality television show was on a hiatus, that paved the way for Total Divas to take the top spot on the E! Network. Vince McMahon shared that bit of information with shareholders earlier today, and he downplayed things a little by stating that the other popular show was not around capture all of the viewers. Expect more seasons to come.
April 30, 2015
King of the Ring returns
Vince McMahon is still desperately wanting to boost the number of subscribers for the WWE Network, so he has decided to bring back one of the best gimmicks that his company has ever created. The King of the Ring tournament is making a comeback, and it is starting on the next episode of Monday Night Raw. The preliminary rounds will be held on television, but the semifinals and finals will be shown on Tuesday on their online video service.

- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: The goal of this project is to design and build a dual-axis drive system for an electric bicycle. The computerized control for the electric bicycle utilizes a firmware-based system, with the vehicle's electronic control unit (ECU)and most of the signal processing circuits implemented using a Programmable SoC (PSoC). This special dual-axis driven electric bicycle has many advantages over electric bicycles currently available on the market. To be able to have both wheels drive the vehicle simultaneously, the speed controller must be designed with a very high degree of accuracy so that it has the ability to compensate for speed difference that might exist between the front and rear wheels. In addition, both wheels have breaks and kinetic energy recovery for decelerating or downhill riding. The vehicle has automatic cruse capabilities and can automatically switch to single front or rear wheel drive at medium or high speeds. This saves power and avoids any single motor driver overheating because of long term driving.
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: The firmware design is a tough task for university students because firmware combines hardware design and software programming. In this paper, a mixed-signal array IC chip called Programmable System-on-Chip (PSoC ® ) from Cypress Semiconductor is employed as a firmware platform for signal processing as well as digital signal processing practice. PSoC is a single chip with mixed-signal array as well as on-chip MCU. It provides a solution for integration of analogue and digital hardware as well as software programming. In this paper, practices of analogue filter design and digital signal processing by PSoC filter design for university senior students and graduate school students are introduced. This signal processing course modules can be divided in two parts: (A) Designing analogue filter with configurable analogue blocks in PSoC as the design practice for signal processing. (B) Implementing digital filter in PSoC with MATLAB FDATool toolbox as the firmware design practice for digital signal processing. Through the designed sections, students can study the process of designing analogue and digital filter in PSoC chip with the help of MATLAB toolbox. Students can actually experience the power of firmware and understand how to accomplish filter design projects.
Conference Paper: Firmware implementation of an adaptive solar cell maximum power point tracking based on PSoC[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: An adaptive perturbation and observation (P&O) method for the maximum power point tracking of photovoltaic system is proposed with programmable system-on-chip firmware implementation in this paper. This proposed method holds the following merits: the control algorithm is simple and easy to implement, the power oscillation at the maximum power point and the tracking speed are improved, moreover the adaptive perturbation and observation method can track the new maximum power point rapidly when the ed to complete the boost converter circuit. Therefore, this proposed hardware structure might be the most concise circuit ever. The proposed circuit is tested and compared with the conventional P&O method. The performance of propose adaptive perturbation and observation method is 0.4 second faster and 4.9% output power higher than that of traditional P&O method.
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: A compact, reliable, and robust auxiliary vacuum brake system has been implemented by utilizing a programmable system-on-chip (PSoC). All the circuit elements in this control system are integrated into one chip without any external electronic components. Circuit as well as system is compact in size and concise in design. Also, Kalman filter algorithm is employed and implemented within PSoC chip by software to surpass the noises and disturbances from hostile surrounding in the vehicle. A prototype has been built and tested. Test results have confirmed that the performance of Kalman filter is better than that of low-pass filter. Furthermore, Kalman filter is capable of dealing with noises and disturbances from vacuum pump and other sources while low-pass filter is not.
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: In this paper, Kalman filter is designed and implemented on a heat deformation tester (HDT) to estimate the LVDT sensor information from a noisy measured data sequence. In simulation and test, the output response of Kalman filter can separate noise from reference signal and the outcome is closely matched with reference signal. The response of low-pass IIR filter is smooth and can also separate noise but some time delay is presented. The mean squared error (MSE) of low-pass IIR filter is 0.6354 while the MSE of Kalman filter reduces to 0.1467, a significant improvement by 4 times. Also, the computational efficiency of Kalman filter is better than that of low-pass IIR filter in this application. Both filtering algorithms are implemented and programmed into a heat deformation tester (HDT). The performance is impressive.
Conference Paper: An auto-tuning Grey-Neuro-PID controller[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: In this paper, we propose to add Grey prediction model GM(1,2) into the self-tuning Neuro-PID controller based on radial basis function (RBF) algorithm to improve the performance of the controller. Initially, the prediction of system output by the simple GM(1,2) model is added to the RBF algorithm as one of the inputs to enhance the performance of RBF neural network system identifier. The output of this GM(1,2)-RBF on-line learning system model is subsequently used to establish a set of updating algorithms for the gains of self-tuning PID controller. The detailed description of the proposed system structure and the design algorithm is given in this paper. The proposed auto-tuning PID controller via GM(1,2)-RBF algorithm is put into tests by Matlab simulations and motor speed control experiments by using Lab VIEW. The system responses of self-tuning PID controller based on GM(1,2)-RBF and RBF are compared. Both simulations and motor test results confirm that the proposed self-tuning PID controller based on GM(1,2)-RBF performs better than the one based on RBF.
Conference Paper: Applying Grey relation method to determine the "carbon black" ranking of rubber samples[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: "Carbon black" is the major influential factor in categorizing the quality rank of rubber. This paper presents a new approach to simplify the ranking procedure with limited samples by using Grey relational grading method while the ranking accuracy is ensured. The proposed approach is described as follows: First, rubber samples are sliced and snapshot into black & white images. These images are further enhanced by digital image processing methods before applying this new clustering approach. Then, the "carbon black" of a sampled rubber image is classified into ten ranks according to the method B of ISOH345 document. The measured data are processed by using the algorithm of partial Grey relational grading methods. The "carbon black" ranking of rubber is obtained by sorting and determining the maximum value of Grey relational algorithm. In order to verify this new approach, test results are compared to the results taken by standard statistical method as reference. The results confirm that this new approach can use fewer samples and preserve the ranking accuracy.
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: This paper proposes a design and implementation of an assist-mode, hybrid electric motorcycle (H.E.M.). The proposed hybrid electric motorcycle is a revised vehicle from a 50 cc motorcycle and designed to match up with a 100 cc motorcycle. In order to expedite the developing phase and lower down the cost, a master–slave tracking control method is utilized. A dc servo-motor is deployed to track the speed of the rear wheel of the motorcycle and to provide more torque through power composite into the rear wheel so that the performance of hybrid electric motorcycle can be promoted. The advance of performance as well as the energy saving can both be expected. In road trip experiment, the H.E.M. prototype achieves an average gasoline mileage of 46 km l−1 compared to the original 34 km l−1. The overall efficiency is about 35% lift. Experimental results confirm the feasibility and prosperities of the proposed hybrid electric motorcycle.
Conference Paper: Design an Intelligent Neural-Fuzzy Controller for Hybrid Motorcycle[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: The main propose of this article is to design an intelligent neural-fuzzy controller for hybrid motorcycle. A self-tuning PID tracking controller based on RBF neural network with Fuzzy current limiter is proposed to maneuver the motor and save some energy in hybrid mode. The outer motor control loop is designed to track down the speed fluctuations by Neural-PID controller. Besides, one inner loop is designed to limit the armature current whenever the power demand is diminished according to a set of Fuzzy rules. The proposed structure is put into tests by Matlab programming. Simulations confirm this RBF-PID controller with Fuzzy current limiter can save 23.5% energy for a tracking task.
Conference Paper: Design of Refined Grey Prediction Controller[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: The goal of this article is to offer an automatic PID parameter adjustment strategy by using a grey predictor model. The grey predictor model together with a first-order low-pass alpha filter generates effective estimated values of the plant output. The output error is then embedded in a control algorithm that automatically tunes the PID parameters. The resulting PID/Grey controller is shown to outperform the PID controller that is tuned via the standard quarter-decay ratio method. The paper gives a detailed description of the system structure, the design algorithm, and its implementation. Regulation and tracking performance of the proposed PID/grey predictor controller are illustrated by means of computer simulation tests in the Matlab environment. Finally, a temperature regulation example is built by using LabVIEW programming and tested to validate the performance of the proposed controller scheme.
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: The purpose of this paper is to design and implement a grey prediction controller (GPC) via LabVIEW as a test platform. Grey prediction model GM(1,1) is used with the aid of first-order, digital low-pass alpha filter to refine the estimation of the system response in advance. The prediction is then utilized to modify the parameters of PID controller. Hence, an auto-tuning PID controller according to the forecasting of system response is achieved. LabVIEW software programming with a data acquisition card (model DAQPad-6015) from National Instruments Co. is chosen to provide a high-resolution, however, time-saving solution for developing this auto-tuning control system. One temperature regulation example is arranged and tested to confirm this auto-tuning controller scheme. Test results of this novel grey prediction controller are derived and compared with traditional PID controller. The Grey prediction controller is far better than PID controller in the prospect of both the transient response and steady state response. Best of all, this auto-tuning regulator eliminates the hassle of human interference
Conference Paper: An Auto-tuning PID Regulator Using Grey Predictor[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: It is the purpose of this paper to introduce the advantages of grey predictor controllers. We adopt grey prediction to obtain simple and effective estimated values, and, with the aid of first-order low-pass alpha filter, greatly improve the accuracy subsequently used in the prediction for system response. The result will be in turn used to predict error and furthermore automatically adjust the parametrical values of PID controller, and accordingly will be able to deal with the possible variation of system responses at the very first stage. It can not only actively promote the responses efficiency of transient response, but also passively prevent disturbance. As a matter of fact, the highest demand of "plug in and play" can be met without any need to adjust the parameter. This paper will give a detailed specification of the system structure, the design, and the concept, as well as prove the modulation function of grey predictor controllers in unit step response by means of Matlab program simulation and mathematical argumentation. In transient response, it will effectively fasten rising time, shorten settling time, and oppress overshoot; meanwhile, in steady state response, it is able to reduce steady state error to zero and achieve what traditional PID cannot perform
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: The theme of this paper is to design a 'grey statistic model toolbox' via C++ in the GM model, for easy studying and learning in the grey system theory. In the past research about the grey model toolbox, focused on case-by-case needs. Although all studies have shown good results, only the individual case results can be presented. The full details are still lacking. Therefore, in this study, firstly, the C++ is used to develop a toolbox for a grey statistic model. Secondly the clustering of student's test score is presented as the sample, and the feasibility of the toolbox is implemented, creating this study. Through the results, the grey statistic toolbox in the GM field not only presents a lot of figures to make the results more clear, but also upgrades the analytical level in the grey system theory during the whole implementation of this approach.
Conference Paper: Hybrid electric motorcycle: A master-slave mode design[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: This paper proposes a design and implementation of a master-slave mode, hybrid electric motorcycle (H.E.M.). The proposed hybrid electric motorcycle is a revised vehicle from a 50 C.C. motorcycle and designed to match up with a 100 C.C. motorcycle. In order to expedite the developing phase and lower down the cost, a master-slave tracking control method is utilized. A DC servo-motor is deployed to track the speed of the rear-wheel of the motorcycle and to provide more torque through power composite into the rear wheel so that the performance of hybrid electric motorcycle can be promoted. The advance of performance as well as the energy saving can both be expected. In road trip experiment, the H.E.M. prototype achieves an average gasoline mileage of 46 km/liter compared to the original 34 km/liter. The overall efficiency is about 35% lift. Experimental results confirm the feasibility and prosperities of the proposed hybrid electric motorcycle (H.E.M.).
Conference Paper: The development of portable infrared color sensor[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: The purpose of this project is to design and implement a portable yet high resolution color sensor which can identify the color, and can discern the color difference between a new paint and the old one. The resolution is 1/256 in digit. This device can give the provider a handful tool to get the right color of paint when body job is needed. Also, this device can ensure customers their paint jobs are well carried out with the objective digital readout from the device. This device uses the infrared photodiode pair as the color sensor. One constant current source with feedback loop from one photodiode receiver to ensure a pre-fixed brightness of infrared light is emitted from the transmitter. Another photodiode picks up the reflected signal from surface in a pre-determined distance. The color difference can be seen as the amplitude variation of the reflected signal. This amplitude variation then feeds into A/D converter to quantifilize the color into digits, i.e. 0 to 255 in the resolution of 1/256. A single chip microprocessor takes in the information via its I/O port and compares the data with a built-in color look-up table. Finally, the identified color along with its digitalized brightness readout is shown on a LCD display controlled by the micro-processor to carry out the color scrutiny scheme
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: The purpose of this paper focuses on designing an intelligent, compact, reliable, and robust auxiliary vacuum brake system (VBS) with Kalman filter and self-diagnosis scheme. All of the circuit elements in the designed system are integrated into one programmable system-on-chip (PSoC) with entire computational algorithms implemented by software. In this system, three main goals are achieved: (a) Kalman filter and hysteresis controller algorithms are employed within PSoC chip by software to surpass the noises and disturbances from hostile surrounding in a vehicle. (b) Self-diagnosis scheme is employed to identify any breakdown element of the auxiliary vacuum brake system. (c) Power MOSFET is utilized to implement PWM pump control and compared with relay control. More accurate vacuum pressure control has been accomplished as well as power energy saving. In the end, a prototype has been built and tested to confirm all of the performances claimed above.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2016
The surname Lefebvre is derived from the Old French word "fevre," which meant "a blacksmith;" as such, it was originally an occupational name for a smith, or metal worker. While the patronymic and metronymic surnames, those derived from the name of the father and mother respectively, were the most common form of a hereditary surname in France, occupational surnames also emerged during the late Middle Ages.
The surname Lefebvre was first found in Savoy (French: Savoie) in the Rhône-Alpes region of the French Alps, where this noble family held a family seat since ancient times.
Spelling variations of this family name include: Lefebvre, Lefebvres, Lefevres, Favre, Favres, Fevre, Febvre, Febvres, Favers, Lefabre, Lefabvres, Fabvres, Lefever and many more.

While you're thinking of other- some may be only thinking of themselves by setting up a bogus charity and pocketing all of the money.
Most charities could make up to 50 % of their annual take during just these 2 months- but are you giving, or being ripped off?
Liz Compton with the Dept. of Agriculture says, "Some of the red flags are; if it's a real emotional sales pitch and they don't want to give you time to check them out. If they say leave it under the door mat and we'll come and get it. Big red flag. A lot of bogus charities will use practically the same name, just a little bit off."
How the money you donate is money is being spent is another issue. Records that show how much is going to the cause compared to administrative pay and fundraising is made public.

Thai massage is an ancient and unique form of body therapy incorporating deep stretching and rhythmic compression in a "dance like" transmission of energy. This Eastern form of therapy believes to treat an illness you have to treat the whole body, not just particular part.

It affects the whole body by increasing flexibility, releasing both deep and superficial tension, and helping the body's natural energy to flow more freely.
It's been known as passive yoga as the receiver can be put into yoga like positions during the treatment. The massage is performed on the special mat on the floor with the client wearing comfortable clothing that allows for movement and no oils or creams are used. Practitioner exerts pressure on the body's energy lines, with the palms of the hands, the thumbs, elbows or feet.

You have to eat at the restaurant "Da Paola" in Lonnano at least one evening, which is a 5-minute walk from Villa Caterina. It is a family style restaurant that is open by reservation only. Once reserved a table, Paola will serve you excellent homemade tortelli and ravioli, following the ancient Tuscan recipe handed down from one generation to another.

The Casentino is a valley full of medieval histories and much more, here is what you can see and visit in some towns of the valley:
- Stia: do not lose the opportunity to visit the castle of Porciano, Piazza Tanucci and the Palagio Fiorentino.
- Pratovecchio: do not miss a visit at the Castle of Romena where Dante Alighieri lived during his exile.
- Poppi: its Castle and its old town are a must.
- Bibbiena: very nice old town.
- Chiusi della Verna: the sanctuary of La Verna, where St. Francis of Assisi lived, is worth a visit.
Leaving from Villa Caterina and continuing along the uphill road, after about fifteen kilometres, you will reach the Sacred Hermitage of Camaldoli.
In addition to all the places that Casentino offers, you can visit the cities of Florence and Arezzo which are just one hour drive from Pratovecchio. In an hour and a half drive, you can reach Cortona, Siena and San Gimignano, and in two hours drive you can reach Pisa.

The Casentino is the valley in which the first tract of the river Arno flows to Subbiano, Italy.
It is one of the four valleys in which the Province of Arezzo is divided. Mount Falterona, from which the Arno starts, represents the northern boundary between the Casentino and Romagna. On the east of the valley are the Alpe di Serra and the Alpe di Catenaia, which separate the Casentino from the highest tract of the Val Tiberina. On the west there is the Pratomagno, which separates the valley from the Valdarno Superiore. Part of the valley is included in the Foreste Casentinesi, Monte Falterona, Campigna National Park.
It can be said that the valley has an oval form, with an extension across the river that varies from a maximum of 60 km to a minimum of 30. The topography of the Casentino is especially various, including both plains and mountains rich in large forests. These mountains have often attracted great saints: it was here that St. Romuald built his hermitages at Camaldoli, and that less than two centuries later St. Francis of Assisi established the Sanctuary of La Verna, the headquarters of the Franciscan order.
The valley's biggest comuni are all located in the Arno valley: among these the biggest are Bibbiena and Poppi, while Capolona, Castel Focognano, Castel San Niccolò, Pratovecchio, Stia, Subbiano are more or less smaller. The villages located on the neighbouring hills and mountains are much smaller. These are Chitignano, Chiusi della Verna, Montemignaio, Ortignano-Raggiolo .
The "Golf Club Casentino": The course is situated on a hill with a magnificent panoramic view on the Arno Valley, the green heart of tuscany. The nearby national park as well as numerous historico-cultural sights like medieval castles and monasteries make a visit, not only to golf, worthwhile.The Casentino Valley is a place rich in history where you can discover medieval villages and castles, Romanesque parish churches and places of worship known all around the world. Once also the supreme poet Dante Alighieri stayed here. Around the area you can also find signs of the Etruscans and Romans who inhabited this land in ancient times.

Mom's Party Cheese Ball (tweaked)
I can't tell you how excited I am about this!! You see, my mom has made this incredible cheese ball every Christmas for years now and since I went dairy-free, it is probably one of the foods I miss the most. I finally made a dairy-free version after a couple of attempts and frankly, it's so good, it brought a tear to my eye.
Original recipe
Mom's Party Cheese Ball (tweaked)
12-oz Tofutti cream cheese
2 1/2 C Rice brand shredded cheese, cheddar flavor
2 Tbs pimento, chopped
2 Tbs green pepper, chopped
2 Tbs onion, chopped
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp lemon juice
1 C walnuts, chopped
Combine softened cream cheese and cheddar. I used my food processor, but with the dough blade, just to blend them. Add remaining ingredients except walnuts and mix well. Transfer to a bowl and chill for several hours or overnight. Shape into a ball and roll in nuts. Serve with crackers. (Club crackers and Ritz always taste the best with this cheese ball)! My version may not look as pretty as the original, but once you take a bite, you won't care what it looks like!

Early 3D Adopters: Who's Doing 3D Printing?
Hudson Printing opted for a 3D Systems CubeX Duo 3D printer.
The CubeX Duo is a two-color machine that offers a resolution of 125 microns and a build area of 10x10˝.
Burke Jones, owner of The UPS Store-Kearny Mesa franchise in San Diego, installed a Stratasys uPrint last August as part of a nationwide test run.
3D printing and design capabilities have lead to Jones' shop garnering more traditional printing clients and vice versa.
Braintree Printing's Jim Corliss feels the $30,000+ price tag of his Stratasys Dimension 1200e creates a barrier to entry for potential competitors.
Everywhere you look, people are talking about 3D printing. But talk is cheap. Are there any commercial printers who have actually invested in 3D printers? Are they using them to produce commercial jobs? If so, what markets are they serving?
The numbers of 3D printers installed at commercial print shops is still quite small. Most devices are purchased by hobbyists, online operations catering to consumer projects, and service bureau-type installations servicing engineers and prototype designers in the medical, industrial and manufacturing markets.
3D printing is, however, starting to find its place in the commercial printing marketplace. Just as in the early days of digital printing (back when Cindy Crawford ruled the runway and neon colors were all the rage), commercial printers with 3D machines are trying to figure out not just the capabilities of the technology, but what applications will become profit centers. The UPS Store and Staples recently garnered headlines for their investment in 3D printing, but theirs are not necessarily models that other printers can follow.
The challenge does not come from the output technology. 3D printers themselves are pretty much plug-and-play. Whether it's an inexpensive hobbyist device or a more robust commercial 3D printer, simply plug it into your network and print. It's the 3D design requirements and ability to identify market opportunities that create the bumps in the road.
Hudson Printing
Still, not all printers are waiting until they have it all figured out. Salt Lake City-based Hudson Printing didn't. Paul Gardner, director of innovation, had been brought on board to help reposition the company in the eyes of customers. "Hudson Printing is a wonderful, 100-year old business, and we want to start building it in new ways so it's still here 100 years from now," Gardner says. One of the first things he did was buy a 3D printer.

Comments about BJs Wholesale Club Neosporin First Aid Antibiotic Ointment and Neo To Go Antiseptic Spray:
We received the Neo to Go thanks to Influenster. We were able to use it a few days after we got it when my youngest daughter fell at the park. She scraped up her knee so I was able to spray it with Neo and she was on her way. The fact that you can clip it to you, your bag, or key chain is very handy! Thanks #NeoToGo #NeoReady #gotitfree #review #influenster #voxbox

So easy to use and effective

I love the fact that now I can keep this in my purse and be ready for my active children whenever needed. This is very effective on cuts and scrapes and I am never without neosporin
Neo to Go
By Amanda51
from Michigan
I received Neo to Go from Influenster in order to facilitate in this review. As the name implies, it's a portable size, small enough to put on a keychain if desired, but not so small that it'll constantly get lost in a purse, glovebox, etc. I appreciate the less-mess aspect of this spray (I was familiar with the ointment before I received this product), and that it doesn't cause pain when applied, since my children injure themselves frequently, but would rather risk infection (their idea, not that I let them risk it) than feel the sting of first aid products. I think that the product is pricey for the amount received, but such is the way of "to-go" products.
Awesome and convenient!
By Lynnm09
from Peoria
I love having the Neosporin pain relief neo to go in my purse! As a softball coach and a mom, I see lots of injuries! The convenience of the neo to go makes everything easier. Clean up the wound, spray on the neo to go and back to playing! It doesn't sting either! Love, Love, Love! I did receive this free for testing purposes from Influenster, but I will continue to buy it from here on out!
Super Easy With the Kids
By Lesh
My son had cuts on the bottom of his feet. I did not want to put goop over it and have him running around on my floors. Instead I was able to use the spray (on the go). I put a couple of sprays on it and waited until it dried and there he went on with his play. Just today as we were out my son had a bad tumble and cut his knee up pretty bad. I went to my car (where I placed the Neosporin) and a couple of sprays he was all better and on his way playing again. After this package is gone I am heading out and getting more. A definite must have for Summer and beyond! Thank you Influenster for providing me with this product.
A classic reborn
By Empress4
from Twin Cities
I remember as a kid having to use other first aid products that stung. When Neosporin came out I was grateful for something that did not hurt. Now as an adult I use it on my children. Now I see that Neosporin has created a new product built. Influenster sent me a Neo To Go to try and it did not take long to find a "test subject" (aka my 6 yr old son). It seemed to work great to give my son the treatment he needed in an easy to apply spray. And I got no complaints from my son once it was applied. I can see making this a staple of our first aid kit.
A product you know in a smaller travel size
By JenW
This handy dandy little spray bottle, included in my TLC VoxBox, is super easy to use and thankfully now resides in my purse. I've used it twice on the go. The container doesn't take up a bunch of space in my emergency kit and does exactly what I need it to do.
Go-To for my Fearless Girl
By KatBathe14
from Clarkston
I received this product free from @Influenster for testing purposes in the #TLCvoxbox . This is the best product I ever could have received. First, it is small and compact, so I can just toss it in my purse and go. Second, my toddler is a fearless little daredevil. She is always climbing, jumping, and falling; and getting right back up to do it again. Having this Neo To-Go on me at all times keeps my mind at ease knowing I can ease her boo-boo's whenever they occur.

"A good bet for Hilo" Top 5 Page for this destination Castle Hilo Hawaiian Hotel Tip by KiKitC
Castle Hilo Hawaiian Hotel, Hilo: 1,356 reviews and 5 photos
The Hilo Hawaiian is right on the bayfront, and offers great views. It's an older building, the hotel shows it's wear...but everything about it is so..."Hawaiian." I couldn't stop tinking about my parents being here forty years ago, and it looking just as it does now.
The rooms are very clean, and the staff is incredibly friendly. The best thing about it, we got a waterfront room for under $100 a night. With deals like that, I'll bite.
Hilo can be a great place to start a day at the volcano or exploring waterfalls for the day. There are few "hotels" in Hilo to begin with, and this one fits the bill. It's gonna rain, everyday. But it clears up quickly.
The restaurant downstairs, the Queen's Court, offers a great seafood buffet on Friday and Saturday nights. MAKE reservations. This is popular with the locals.
Unique Qualities: Our room overlooked the cove. Even when it rained, the views was relaxing.
FYI...our room was haunted.
