ARLINGTON (CBSDFW.COM)- The Texas Rangers and Globe Life Park staff helped pull off a heartwarming homecoming in the middle of the ballpark on Wednesday.
Army Staff Sargent Kevin Welch arrived home early from deployment in South Korea, but his three kids had no idea he was back.
"I'm not sure what to expect, I think they'll be surprised to see me," said Welch.
To make sure the reunion was unforgettable, his wife turned to the Texas Rangers.
"It's been forever. Like a kid on Christmas morning…when you're five and you can't wait for the day to come. That's what it feels like," said wife Laura Welch.
The kids thought they were getting a tour of the ballpark and to keep the reunion a surprise until the very last minute, Sgt. Welch went incognito. Dressed in a Rangers jersey, hat and sunglasses, he played the winner of a 'groundkeeper for a day' contest, who was being filmed for television. The disguise worked long enough for his kids to ask him if the grass on the field was real. When he answered, his kids stopped in his tracks.
"Oh my God!" gasped one of them, in the midst of hugs and laughter.
The surprise was carried out – without a hitch!
"Surprising. I did not know that was going to happen," said daughter Hannah.
"I was very surprised and I was glad to have my dad back," said Madelin.
Sgt. Welch's 15-year-old son Austin says he could tell something was up.
"I was expecting something, I don't know what it was but it was good."
The long wait is finally over and a military family is together again.
Sgt. Welch is home for the next month. In that time – the family will move to Illinois.

Death of the bank statement? NatWest ends monthly statements by post for 13million customers
RBS/Natwest has become the first bank to stop posting monthly statements to all current account customers.
The controversial move, which could be the death knell for regular statements, threatens to keep many of the bank's 13 million customers in the dark.
Instead of getting monthly statements, RBS will instead send paper bills only every three months.
NatWest: It will send paper bills only every three months
It means millions will be unaware of
charging blunders, unexpected debits and undetected fraud on their
accounts for up to a quarter of the year. And it could mean those who rely on their monthly statement to budget find their lives are made much harder.
Marc Gander, founder of the
campaigning Consumer Action Group, says: 'This discriminates against the
poorer, the elderly and the more vulnerable — all of the kind of people
who need closer control of their accounts precisely because they have
less money.
'It is no surprise — not only will
the banks benefit from reduced costs, but also they will benefit from
extra charges. They will be able to levy these against people without
their knowledge. There will also be an even greater opportunity for
If customers don't tell the bank they
want to keep receiving monthly statements, they will be able to get
one-off statements via the post — for £5 a time. RBS/NatWest, which is
81 per cent owned by the taxpayer, is the first to ditch monthly statements
for all customers.
Most of big High Street names have
given customers the option of receiving online bills instead, while
Lloyds and Barclays give limited statements on some accounts.
Paper bills are not only useful for
customers who need to set a budget, but also for those who need them for
mortgage applications and tax returns.
Banks want customers to go
'paperless', which saves the bank money in administration, printing and
postage costs. However, roughly 27 million people still do not use
internet banking or only log-in occasionally, according to figures from
the Office for National Statistics. Many are pensioners without
Others baulk at paying £300 for a
computer they will rarely use, while some are reluctant to enter
personal details into a webpage.
There is also the danger of criminal
activity going undetected on a bank account for weeks on end, says
Richard Hurley, of Cifas Fraud Prevention Service. In 2011, there were
70,744 cases of fraud on bank accounts, according to Cifas.
A spokesman for NatWest says: 'The
change is not compulsory and we will continue to send monthly paper
statements to customers who ask us to.
To cancel the switch to quarterly statements, call 0845 528 1326 for NatWest, or 0845 528 1325 for RBS.

Codasip, a leading provider of Application Specific Instruction-set Processor (ASIP) IP and SecureRF, a leading provider of security solutions for IoT devices, announced they will be demonstrating a RISC-V based processor that has been optimized to run IoT security applications. It was shown at DAC (Austin, TX June 6-8) and will be shown at the RISC-V Workshop (Cambridge, MA July 12-13).
The solution is based on Codasip's Codix-Bk core (RISC-V compliant) with extensions and optimizations to allow single cycle processing of key aspects of SecureRF' security algorithms, without requiring changes to the existing software infrastructure. The optimized core is fully supported by a standards-based SDK including comprehensive debug, profiling, and emulation models.
"We are excited to be able to showcase the results of this collaboration with SecureRF." said Karel Masarik, CEO Codasip. "Leveraging the unique strengths of our Codix IP, and the extensibility inherent in the RISC-V instruction-set architecture (ISA), allowed us, with very little effort, to extend RISC-V and deliver significant performance and power improvements. This is just the beginning of what we believe will be a rich collaboration to deliver secure RISC-V based IP for IoT Security."
Security is critical for emerging IoT applications, and as more and more functions are integrated into devices the processing demands increase significantly. Leveraging an ASIP allows for significant improvements in processor performance without increasing complexity of the software or hardware platform, while at the same time drastically reducing the power requirements.
"Our collaboration with Codasip has enabled us to leverage ASIP technology to do in man-days what would otherwise take man-months or years." said Louis Parks, CEO SecureRF. "We believe IoT security should not depend on the hardware platform you run on, as such we want to make our solution available to the largest audience possible. Codasip's unique technology and support for the RISC-V standard means we get the best of both worlds – the power and performance we need, with an ISA supported by many companies and applications."
Originally developed at University of California, Berkeley - RISC-V is an emerging standard for instruction set architecture (ISA) allowing a rich ecosystem to develop. The standard is now managed by the RISC-V Foundation, and is supported by many industry leading companies with Codasip as one of its founding members. The extensibility of the ISA and the ability to implement the underlying micro-architecture independently from the ISA, make it an exciting standard for new IoT products, and for ASIP technology.
Codasip delivers leading-edge technology that enables adoption of Application Specific Instruction-set Processors (ASIPs). ASIP's utilize dedicated instructions/architecture to accelerate software and are at the heart of applications that require very high performance with low power. Codasip's unique technology makes ASIP adoption as simple and easy as standard embedded processor cores.

The IoT projections suggest that by the year 2020, we will have around 50 billion "things" connected to the cloud. The current estimate is that we already have about 15 billion "things" connected to the cloud. Sending data to the web is a widespread technology, yet new challenges are emerging as the number of devices is growing exponentially. A few examples of these challenges are: data security, communication standards, and how to extract relevant information from such a large amount of data.
In addition to these emerging technical challenges, the advancement of Internet of Things brings a brand new multidisciplinary challenge. Several teams need to communicate simultaneously in order to turn this IoT scenario into a reality. A few of these teams are: embedded systems developers, electronic engineers, operating system developers, data scientists, backend and frontend developers. The synergy between these teams is critical to the success of IoT. Microsoft recently presented an interesting case wherein the ThyssenKrupp elevators inserted a new business model in the market. See more info here.
Toradex and Microsoft MTC São Paulo are aware of such market changes and have joined forces to create an IoT Workshop. This recurring workshop in Brazil is an engagement in the "hands-on" style wherein participants can experience the development of the IoT scenario; using Toradex's Azure IoT Certified Colibri VF61, an embedded computer module featuring the NXP® Vybrid System-on-Chip (SoC) with ARM® Cortex®-A5 @ 500MHz. Making use of the embedded Linux and a node.js technology, the participant writes an application which sends the data from an Inertial Sensor to the Azure IoT Sensor Hub.
Once the data is sent to the cloud, the participant learns how to handle it using the Azure Services, namely: Stream Analytics, PowerBI, and even understanding how to use a machine learning application.
Waldemir Cambiucci, head of Microsoft Brazil MTC said, "One of the most important objectives at MTC Brazil is to drive the adoption of platform and technologies from MICROSOFT and its partners for helping companies from different industries to achieve the best combination between innovation and IT optimization. We cannot do that alone, so a partner such as TORADEX is critical for every initiative that we drive locally. This IoT Workshop conducted by MICROSOFT and TORADEX is a good example of our aspiration for helping partners and customers of both companies to understand real IoT scenarios and its impact for their businesses by using a combination of hardware, gateways, module computers to support sensors and a complete cloud platform to consolidate, manage, and visualize the data collected in each IoT scenario".
Guilherme Fernandes, CEO of Toradex Brasil said, "This is a great opportunity to show both Microsoft's and our customers how easy it is to create scalable IoT applications using our embedded SoMs which are Azure Certified and the incredible resources Microsoft has developed for IoT under the Azure platform."
Over the course of next few weeks, we will be publishing a white paper split into three parts which will show you a step by step approach of all the topics covered in the workshop. This will help all the developers to test and experience the true capabilities of Toradex and Azure. The first part is now published and you can read it here.
Nantes, France, May 25, 2016 – IoT developers must cope with even more constraints than embedded developers (e.g., small footprints, low power considerations, faster prototyping to meet shorter time-to-market windows, connectivity to cloud platforms) and yet still produce top-quality, scalable, portable IoT software. The comprehensive IoT solution portfolio from MicroEJ® – MicroEJ Application Store, MicroEJ Studio, MicroEJ SDK, and MicroEJ OS – meets these challenges by enabling application-driven uses and business models on low-cost, resource-constrained embedded and IoT devices.
From 3:00-3:55pm on Wednesday, June 8th, Vincent Perrier, Chief Product Officer of MicroEJ, will give a presentation on an approach to overcome these IoT development challenges in Room 13AB at Embedded TechCon:
Presentation: "Software virtualization lessons for extreme IoT portability and scale"
Abstract: The diversity of systems on the Internet of Things presents serious limitations for developers seeking to deploy applications to the largest number of platforms, while the economics of IoT make producing hardware-dependent software an archaic notion. In addition, as more devices get connected and demand for IoT solutions grows, a software development ecosystem will be required that has a much larger size and scope than that currently available through the traditional embedded programming workforce. It's time for a new approach.
Software virtualization provides a solution to these challenges, as it abstracts underlying hardware and makes IoT device software development accessible to the largest community of programmers in the world using the Java language. Although historically too cumbersome for use in resource-constrained devices based on microcontrollers, discover how a Java platform can be compacted to RTOS-level footprints to bring massive portability and scale to your IoT development efforts.
MicroEJ solutions combine the techniques, methods and tools that fueled the PC and mobile Internet software industry with the complex technical foundations of embedded systems (fragmented processor architectures and diverse hardware-dependent software and tools). MicroEJ OS is a scalable operating system for resource-constrained embedded, IoT and wearable devices. It is optimized for the wide range of IoT hardware architectures and enables device manufacturers to deliver differentiating firmware using MicroEJ Workbench tools.
MicroEJ Studio allows application developers to write applications and publish them to a MicroEJ Application Store from which they can be downloaded by owners/users of MicroEJ-ready devices (i.e., devices running MicroEJ OS). With MicroEJ solutions, OEMs use proven methods that cut software development time and cost. They create software that delivers incredible user experience and adjusts to the Internet business needs.
Co-located with the Design Automation Conference (DAC), Embedded TechCon is designed to educate today's design engineers in the most critical embedded product and technologies. Embedded TechCon will be held at the Austin Convention Center in Austin, Texas, on June 7th-8th, 2016. Vincent Perrier is available for meetings throughout the conference.

|One command applies embedded digital filtering to multiple data channels on an xDAP system.
Bellevue, WA, April 7, 2016 - Microstar Laboratories, Inc., maker of Data Acquisition Processor (DAP) systems for PC-based high-performance measurement applications, incorporates completely configurable multi-channel digital filtering support into the DAPL 3000 operating system. The DAPL 3000 system runs in the embedded real-time environment of the xDAP family of data acquisition subsystems.
Accurate sampling of signals will preserve the fidelity of both the signal information you want and the noise that you don't want. Digital filtering can be effective at suppressing the noise components, but the complications of diverting the data to some kind of complex library or application environment to accomplish this can be prohibitive. Using the embedded filtering features of the DAPL 3000 system, you don't need any additional software packages -- the DAPL 3000 system already provides these services. Simply route the raw data through the filtering "on the fly", delivering clean, already-filtered data directly to your application.
This kind of capability has been in the DAPL system for over two decades, but only on a channel-by-channel basis. In this version, that capability is extended so that the multiple channels digitized simultaneously by the xDAP system can be processed concurrently by a single processing task. One command tells your configuration what kind of filtering you want, and then one command applies it.
Specialists are not required. You can use the Filter Designer in the Development Studio for DAPL (DAPstudio) software from Microstar Laboratories to design the xDAP system filtering interactively. Use the controls to adjust filter cutoff locations, selectivity, and transition shapes. Understanding the digital filtering theory can be helpful, but isn't required, because after each adjustment you can immediately apply the adjusted settings to live data, comparing the filtered data stream superimposed on the original signal data, to see both intended effects and unintended side effects, until you obtain best results. Then you can export the configuration commands from DAPstudio to a script that can be used in any other software application environment of your choosing.
The filtering capabilities are included in the DAPL 3000 system, part of the DAPtools Software provided with each purchase of an xDAP data acquisition system from Microstar Laboratories. DAPtools Software supports Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows XP, and Windows Server on the PC host system.
For more information, contact Microstar Laboratories via telephone, USA 425-453-2345, or via the Web form.

Some circumstances warrant extra time such as an IRS Tax lien that will take time to get released or are lien holders that the negotiator is working on signing a release from the property.
If the lender is the hold up, they are possibly just overloaded with too many files.
It depends on you more than anything. You should get enough information and then make an informed decision that is best for you and the seller.
I'm not offering legal advice here but just sharing what I would do if it were me:
If you put up option money with the seller you will very likely lose it. The option money would go to the seller or could be held in escrow. I would not the seller more than $10 or so for an option unless you put the option money in escrow with an attorney. If they are being straightforward the $10 should suffice. If they want more under these circumstances, I would be suspicious.
If you move in I would insist on a reasonable rent amount and lease term that is suitable and probably not just month to month. I would want a term long enough so that it was worth my while or the short sale was approved.
You can stack the odds in your favor. Consult an attorney and have them explain the risks, review all the documents and answer any questions before a final commitment is made.
Not sure why you would do a rent option while trying to buy a short-sale unless you just need a place to stay other than where you are at? Some short-sales aren't taking as long as others, if you buy a Short-sale that has a bank approved price you can close in 30 days. If you need some direction or if you need me to find you a bank approved short sale just give me a call.
Spence Reese
Harbourtowne RE/Daniel Island
If you were to go with the rent option and the bank won't accept the price you could end up having to move again, and no one likes moving! The hard thing to understand about short sales is that the bank may refuse your offer even if you are writing a contract for exactly what they are asking. I've seen short sale contracts get denied on the day of closing so you never know!
Good luck and I hope I answered your questions!

NASA claims record number of astronaut applications
In this Saturday, May 11, 2013 photo made available by NASA, astronaut Chris Cassidy and Tom Marshburn, not pictured, perform a space walk to inspect and replace a pump controller box on the International Space Station after an ammonia coolant leak was discovered. (AP Photo/NASA)
Marcia Dunn, The Associated Press
Published Friday, February 19, 2016 1:52PM EST
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - Space travel never looked so good.
NASA announced Friday it received a record number of applicants -- some 18,300 -- for its next astronaut class. That's more than double the previous record of 8,000 for the first space shuttle astronaut class in 1978. This time, NASA hit social media hard to promote the openings.
The odds of getting picked are small; only eight to 14 Americans will be chosen. NASA expects it will take 1 1/2 years to whittle down the list.
Like the eight-member Class of 2013, the future astronauts will train to fly to the International Space Station on capsules under development by SpaceX and Boeing, as well as on NASA's Orion spacecraft intended for deep-space exploration.
The two-month application period closed Thursday.

My neighbor's Christmas decorations are still up

Contemplating the options, it seemed to me that two broad categories were possible. One: they paid to have the lights installed. We will call this Category A. Two: they set the lights out themselves. We will call this Category B.

Brooks came in at 157 pounds on his first trip to the scale,
missing the mark by 2.6 pounds for his scheduled lightweight bout
with former Dream title
challenger Satoru
Kitaoka. The American was given two additional hours to make
weight and came in heavy again, though no specific numbers were
disclosed. Brooks received a third chance to hit his mark and
finally cleared the bar, weighing in at 154.3 pounds.
Pride and UFC veteran Denis Kang also
needed extra time to clear the weight limit for his middleweight
bout with Dutch slugger Melvin
Manhoef, weighing in 1.3 over on his first attempt. This
apparently angered Manhoef, who decided he couldn't wait another
day and tried to brawl with Kang on the scales. Despite the
setback, Kang hit the target weight after two additional hours,
coming in at 185.1 pounds.
Despite the two weight misses, the remainder of the night's
fighters made weight without any hiccups.
The MMA-Kickboxing double feature marks the return of major league
martial arts to Japan, after a year of absence and rumors of
Dream's demise. Main-evented by a featherweight fight pitting
Japanese legend Tatsuya
Kawajiri against UFC veteran Michihiro
Omigawa, the MMA portion of the event features a cast of mostly
familiar faces to the Japanese fight scene.
A former top-tier lightweight in Pride and Shooto, Kawajiri voiced
his excitement to be back in the Japanese ring.
"This is my first fight in Japan in a long time, so I'd like to
show everyone who the best in Japanese MMA is, pound-for-pound," he
"I feel like I'm going to explode, so I'm going to light the fuse
inside me and explode inside the ring tomorrow," said Omigawa,
displaying his usual manic energy.
The event also features some of Dream's title-holders in
non-championship bouts, as featherweight champion Hiroyuki
Takaya takes on Tachi Palace champ Georgi
Karakhanyan, and bantamweight belt-holder Bibiano
Fernandes faces Deep champion Yoshiro
Maeda. Dream lightweight kingpin Shinya Aoki
also makes an appearance Monday night, facing off with UFC vet

*Although recent critics have said that director Lee Daniels doesn't support African American women, he insists that he developed an intense connection with them while growing up black and gay.
Daniels was visiting with HuffPost Live to talk about his new film "Lee Daniels' The Butler," when host Marc Lamont Hill brought up the criticism behind recent remarks Daniel made about researching his movie "Precious."
The remarks were made during an interview on "Larry King Now" when Daniels talked about the time he visited a health crisis center for gay men to learn about AIDS and saw "black women with kids — I thought I had walked into the welfare office."
The comment wasn't a direct stab at black women, but rather bringing attention to the fact that as a result of gay black men feeling pressured to stay in the closet, many black women contract AIDS from men who are on the "down-low."
Daniels was hurt by the criticism of his statement, and said that Black women were a lifeline for him during a difficult childhood.
"I wish I were straight because I love women so much. I love black women. They are the reason that I'm here today, because I rarely was accepted by any African American man growing up, inclusive of my dad," he said.
The director added that he conveys the many complexities of black women in his work, as he did with the character Oprah Winfrey portrays in "The Butler."
"I believe strongly that characters are five-dimensional, and they're complicated, and life is complicated, and people are complicated," he said. "I like to show the grey area in all my characters. Not just white — black, everybody."

I want to visualize data as a tree, but also I want to customize default link appearance. There shown default appearance, but I want to create links which looks like Rational Software Architect links. Is it possible?
The links are SVG path elements. You can style them using CSS to change the color, width etc. For the arrow heads, you can use SVG Markers. To add labels, you would need to add additional SVG text elements. You could for example add a new select with the tree links as data that create the SVG text elements for the UML cardinality.
I've done it with writing my own path handler. Here is the sample code:

Hi Fodorites,
I have an 11 hours layover in Buenos Aires, arriving at Newbery (Aeroparque) at 11am,
and flying out of Ezeiza at 10:30pm. I plan to leave my luggage at Newbery, take a taxi
to the center and do some sightseeing, then take a taxi back and from Newbery take
a bus around 6:30pm to Ezeiza (with a voucher given by the airline). It's my first time
in Buenos Aires and I have several questions:
1. Is the above a reasonable plan?
2. What would you recommend to see in about 6 hours? I'm a good walker but it will be an afternoon in the hottest month of summer.
3. Are there hop-on hop-off tour buses?
4. last info I read, dating 2011, is that there is a left luggage facility at Terminal A
of Newbery. Is this correct?
5. I will have laptop and other electronics with me: is it safer to leave everything at the left luggage or take a backpack with the electronics with me?

Voters in the northern reaches of San Diego, centered around the town of Poway, California, sent Randy "Duke" Cunningham to Congress for a generation. In short order he became one of the most powerful Republicans in the House of Representatives. Cunningham was–or so it seemed–a war hero from Vietnam, and he plied his military record for everything it was worth. And it seems that Cunningham was also one of the most corrupt members of Congress in history–indeed, arguably the most corrupt.
His story might furnish a cautionary tale of the era of Bush and for the 109th Congress, considered by Thomas Mann and Norm Ornstein to have been the most spectacularly corrupt in the nation's history. And indeed, it's too good not to be the subject of a book. And now it is–by the reporters whose diligent work proved that exposé journalism was not dead in Southern California, and who ultimately put U.S. attorney Carol Lam on to the "Dukester's" trail (which in turn brought about her own fall at the hands of Karl Rove and Alberto Gonzales). The book is called The Wrong Stuff: The Extraordinary Saga of Randy "Duke" Cunningham, the Most Corrupt Congressman Ever Caught and it appears in bookstores on Monday.
Across the page at "Washington Babylon" my colleague Ken Silverstein offers an interview with one of the authors, Marcus Stern. Don't miss the discussion of "original sin"–namely, did Cunningham become corrupted by Washington, or was he always that way?
And catch this passage from the book, which makes clear just how "dirty" Duke Cunningham really was:
even Wilkes drew a line on what he would do for the congressman. For one thing, Wilkes was totally disgusted by the hot tub Cunningham put on the boat's deck during the autumn and winter. What repelled Wilkes — and others invited to the parties — was both the water Cunningham put in the hot tub and the congressman's penchant for using it while naked, even if everybody else at the party was clothed. Cunningham used water siphoned directly from the polluted Potomac River and never changed it out during the season. "Wilkes thought it was unbelievably dirty and joked if you got in there it would leave a dark water line on your chest," said one person familiar with the parties. "The water was so gross that very few people were willing to get into the hot tub other than Duke and his paramour." That was a reference to Cunningham's most frequently seen girlfriend, a flight attendant who lived in Maryland.
One of these parties started at the Capital Grille with Cunningham ordering his usual filet mignon – very well done – with iceberg lettuce salad and White Oak. Wilkes used the dinner to update Cunningham on the appropriations he wanted. Cunningham then took the whole group back to the boat where they drank more wine, sitting on white leather sofas while Cunningham told more war stories. Cunningham then took his clothes off and invited all to join him in the polluted hot tub that was hidden from the neighbors by a white tarp. There were no takers.
Now that's the sort of dirt that we only very rarely see in a Washington scandal.

In five easy lessons
From the April 2015 issue
Freddie Gray's relatives arrived for the trial in the afternoon, after the prep-school kids had left. By their dress, they seemed to have just gotten off work in the medical and clerical fields. The family did not appear at ease in the courtroom. They winced and dropped their heads as William Porter and his fellow officer Zachary Novak testified to opening the doors of their police van last April and finding Freddie paralyzed, unresponsive, with mucus pooling at his mouth and nose. Four women and one man mournfully listened as the officers described needing to get gloves before they could touch him.
The first of six Baltimore police officers to be brought before the court for their treatment of Freddie Gray, a black twenty-five-year-old whose death in their custody was the immediate cause of the city's uprising last spring, William Porter is young, black, and on trial. Here in this courtroom, in this city, in this nation, race and the future seem so intertwined as to be the same thing.
