AAAAH! My kids are driving me crazy! My first grader won't do her work which is one thing, but the attitude, and the "I can't"response when I know she can is can is so infuriating for me. I don't know where the attitude is coming from, although I hear a lot of other moms with 7 year old girls telling me they have the same problem. Any ideas for changing attitudes as well as dealing with them when they aren't trying?
I feel your pain!!!! The only thing that I have found is the right motivation--unfortunately the motivation only seems to work for a day or two. I can tell you that when my now 9 yo (#1) was in first grade he could easily spend an hour and a half looking at his math and crying (literal tears) about how he couldn't do it then the next day (with motivation) would get literally twice as much done in ten minutes and get only 1 or 2 wrong. I would get so mad!!! Now, at 9, he does Teaching Textbooks (for math) and I never hear any complaints . . . he actually is much more self-motivated about all his subjects so there is hope! The other thing is that I have changed the programs he is doing so enjoys them more . . . something that I think is more trial and error and requires a bit of an older kid (ie 3rd grade) to really make a difference. By the way I have a 6 yo boy (#3) who I am convinced, many days, may be the end of me for the same reasons!
Thank you for that!
Yep, very normal, especially this time of year ;) Like the other poster said, motivation is the key. At that age kids typically aren't as self motivate as we'd like them to be. They need external motivation for now. Make sure you schedule some breaks....breaks she really wants but will miss if certain things aren't done first but build in extra time. For example, if handwriting, reading, spelling take 60 minutes then give her 90. Start school at 8:00 (or whenever) and snack or recess or cartoon or whatever is at 9:30 if she's done. Then back to the books (starting with something easy for a transition and do the same thing until recess. Kids that age typically need to work in smaller chunks of time and then need to do something else. I would try to avoid letting her have total freedom during her break. It's really hard to stop right in the middle of something with the siblings to go back to schoolwork. Try to keep everyone on the same break routine (if you have more kids). It gets easier. But remember, all kid are different. Environment matters too. My 3rd grader is soooo easily distracted by everyone else....and with 8 kids here it's hard to accommodate him (he wants to be by everyone...just wants them all to remain silent :) ) but as he gets older, he now understands why I send him to the next room to finish one task. Good luck :)
I would like to thank you for the efforts you have made in writing this article. I am hoping the same best work from you in the future as well. https://www.allassignmenthelp.com

Mammography is an excellent way to detect breast abnormalities, but in many cases it is not possible to tell from the imaging studies alone whether a growth is benign or cancerous. To make this determination it is necessary to obtain a tissue sample for microscopic examination. As an alternative to open surgical biopsy, which removes an entire breast lump for microscopic analysis, a hollow needle may be passed through the skin into the suspicious lesion with the help of special breast x-rays. The small sample of breast tissue obtained in this way can show whether the lesion is malignant or benign, and the procedure is much less invasive than the surgical approach. A special computerized mammography machine uses intersecting coordinates to pinpoint the area of tissue change. This method is called stereotactic biopsy or x-ray-guided biopsy. A pathologist examines the obtained specimen and makes a final diagnosis so that treatment planning can begin.
This special apparatus permits the doctor to perform a mammogram that displays as a digital readout on a computer screen. Once the suspect area is located, the computer logarithmically calculates the spatial orientation of the tissue in 3 dimensions, permitting the physician to pinpoint exactly its location in the breast.
The doctor is able to perform a needle biopsy – the extraction of suspect tissue for pathological examination – without the patient having to move from the examination table.
A stereotactic breast biopsy is most helpful when mammography shows a mass, a cluster of microcalcifications (tiny calcium deposits that are closely grouped together), or an area of abnormal tissue change, but no lump can be felt on careful breast examination. A core biopsy is performed using a vacuum assisted needle biopsy device. This system uses gentle suction to obtain a tissue sample. This is less invasive than a surgical biopsy.
X-ray images also are used to place a guide wire into the suspicious area in order to help locate the lesion during open surgical biopsy, which is performed in an operating room.
An x-ray-guided biopsy often is done when:
Even though most women who have a breast biopsy are found not to have cancer, despite an abnormality on the mammogram, you may want to have a relative or friend join you to lend support and to drive you home. If you are taking aspirin or a blood thinner, you will need to stop taking these five days in advance of the biopsy. Be sure to check with your physician before discontinuing your medication.
The patient is lying face-down with her breast projecting through a hole in the table. The actual biopsy is done below the table after raising it to gain access to her breast.A paddle-shaped instrument compresses the breast during biopsy. A tray is nearby, containing all of the equipment necessary for the biopsy.
In addition to the specialized equipment needed for x-ray-guided breast biopsy, specially trained technologists and physicians perform the procedure. The principle of stereotactic biopsy is that a lesion can be located precisely in three dimensions by calculating its apparent change in position on angled x-ray images. The first x-ray locates the abnormality in the breast, after which two stereo views are obtained, each angled 15 degrees to either side of the initial image. The physician then marks the lesion electronically on the stereo images. The computer calculates how much the lesion's position appears to have changed on each of the stereo views, and in this way is able to determine its exact site in three-dimensional space.
The vacuum assisted biopsy device, the VAD, uses vacuum pressure to pull breast tissue into a needle and remove it without having to withdraw the needle after each sampling. Another advantage of this device is that biopsies are obtained in an orderly manner by rotating the probe, assuring that the entire region of interest will be sampled. Using the automated core biopsy needle, sampling is more random.
The first step is to clean the skin with Chlor-prep and inject a local anesthetic. A small nick is made in the skin and the tip of the biopsy needle is advanced to the calculated site of the lesion. At this point stereo images are again obtained to confirm that the needle tip actually is within the lesion. Usually 5 to12 samples are collected when doing a biopsy. Then a final set of images is obtained. If they show that the lesion has been mostly or completely removed, a small clip is left at the biopsy site so that it can be easily located if the biopsy results are abnormal. Afterwards the skin opening is covered with a dressing; it need not be sutured. You will be told to avoid strenuous activity for 24 hours after returning home, but then will usually be able to resume normal activities. You will need to keep the area dry the rest of the day and keep an ice pack on the area for 2-4 hours post procedure.
A diagnosis requires processing numerous, high-quality slides over a period of 48-72 hours . When your biopsy findings are ready you may have a session with your physician to discuss the results and decide on the next step. If an abnormality is found, you may be referred to a surgeon or tumor specialist.

House Frey (Histories & Lore)
this wiki
"House Frey" is part of the Histories & Lore, a special feature in the Blu-ray of Season 3 of Game of Thrones. It is narrated by Michelle Fairley as Catelyn Stark, who provides a description of House Frey.
Catelyn Stark details House Frey's rise to power and its wavering loyalty throughout the centuries.
Some houses rise to power through strength, others through wealth. House Frey gained its title through cunning. Centuries ago, its founder looked at a map and noticed how the Trident spears the Neck, cutting off the North from the South. He realized that a river of gold would flow to the man who owned the right bridge across the water.
It took the Freys three generations to complete their forefather's vision: A massive arch of smooth grey rock, wide enough for two wagons to pass abreast. When they were done, they built high curtain walls, deep moats and heavy gates to protect the approaches and put up squat, ugly formidable keeps on either bank: The Twins. Commanding both road and river with arrow slits, murder holes and portcullises, the Twins ensure that no one crosses without begging the Freys' leave and paying the Freys' toll.
The plan worked. The family grew rich and powerful, exacting gold from lords, merchants and poor farmers. A good thing too, given the number of Freys the bridge has to support. The current lord, Walder Frey, has seen over ninety namedays and sired near as many children, trueborn or otherwise. A shameful thing on any other lord, but Walder Frey possesses no shame. A dangerous thing for any other lord, but Walder Frey has no concern for heirs or fear of their impatience. Perhaps Lord Frey thinks to outlast them all. Given the infighting he encourages among them, perhaps he will.
Whatever the case, House Frey does nothing so well as survive. When the ironborn conquered and razed the Riverlands, the Freys hid in their castle. When Aegon and House Tully swept the ironborn back to their islands, the Freys hid in their castle. When Edmyn Tully demanded their allegiance as Aegon's new Lord Paramount of the Trident, the Freys bent the knee from their castle.
Perhaps the Tullys should not have been surprised when Lord Hoster Tully called his banners against the Mad King and Lord Walder did not answer. The Baratheons, Starks, Arryns and Tullys, some of the oldest and greatest houses of Westeros, fought and bled for the cause of justice while House Frey hid in their castle and waited. No doubt if Rhaegar had won at the Trident, Lord Walder would have given him safe passage into the North to destroy the rest of Eddard Stark's Northern army for a fair price.
But Rhaegar fell and lo and behold the Frey army appeared to render aid to the rebels' already victorious forces. Many sniggered that Lord Walder had been waiting for his army to come of age, having fielded it out of his own breeches. Hoster Tully named him "the Late Lord Frey" to the other lords' amusement, a slight that pricks Lord Walder to this day.
In many ways, however, Lord Walder was wise. The rebels had no guarantee of victory and had he fought with them from the outset and they failed, he would have lost the bridge his family was so proud of. "More Pride Than Honor", Catelyn comments that those should be the words of House Frey. Yet part of her wonders if Lord Walder waited not out of fear, but hope that the rebels would be destroyed leaving him to assume the Tully's place as Lord Paramount of the Trident. To buy the respect House Frey have always wanted, but refused to earn. No, Catelyn decides, not even Lord Walder could be so disloyal.
- Catelyn says that during the War of Conquest, the Freys did not join with the rest of the River lords in revolting against the ironborn to join the Targaryens, but instead hid within their own castle, thinking only of their own safety - similar to how Walder Frey later hid at the Twins during Robert's Rebellion and did not march to aid either side. Exactly what the Freys did (or did not do) during the War of Conquest has not yet been commented on in the books, though it may be expanded upon in the upcoming World of Ice and Fire.
- A point is brought up near the end of the video, when Catelyn remarks that the House Frey motto should be "More Pride Than Honor". Despite their prominence within the storyline, the official motto of House Frey has yet to be revealed in the books.

Jacob Soetendorp Institute for Human Values
- Date submitted: 1 Nov 2011
- Stakeholder type: Major Group
- Name: Jacob Soetendorp Institute for Human Values
- Submission Document: Download
Full SubmissionJacob Soetendorp Institute for Human Values Submission to the Compilation Document in preparation of the Zero Draft Outcome Document of the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development The Jacob Soetendorp Institute for Human Values is building bridges between diverse cultures, religions, and generations. It helps to coordinate the international Earth Charter Task Force on Religion, Spirituality, and Ethics and brings together leaders and teachers of the world?s religious and spiritual traditions to express our concern for Earth, our common home. With the help of an interreligious steering committee we have crafted a statement which calls on our various traditions to work together for a just, sustainable and peaceful future, enlists commitments of the faith communities to become agents of change in the transition to sustainable development and highlights some basic expectations of the outcomes of the Rio + 20 conference. Three key recommendations are: ? Create a green economy that ensures social justice and equity, protects the ecological balance and creates economic sufficiency by internalizing social and environmental costs into the economic bottom line. ? Create structures for global governance with a global trusteeship mandate for Earth?s common goods such as fresh water, healthy soil, clean air, the oceans, the atmosphere and the diversity of life that are essential conditions for human life and well-being which cannot be sensibly privately owned and traded on markets. ? Affirm a framework of strong sustainability aimed at securing Earth?s bounty and beauty for present and future generations, such as the Earth Charter, as a guide to development policy and practice. By the end of the year, we will further refine the statement in a process of intereligious consultation that aims to empower the world?s spiritual and religious communities to redouble their efforts of acting as forces of good by weighing in on the Rio + 20 preparation and further international processes such as UNCSD and the realization of the Millennium Development Goals. Please find below the interreligious statement in its version of 31 October, 2011: TOWARDS RIO + 20 AND BEYOND - A TURNING POINT IN Earth HISTORY Speaking truth to power As leaders and teachers of the world?s religious and spiritual traditions, we express our concern for Earth, our common home. We applaud the United Nations? initiative to gather the international community in Rio de Janeiro in June 2012 for the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development. We seek to contribute to a renewed political commitment to sustainable development and to the assessment of progress made since the historic Earth Summit in Rio in 1992. While some progress has been made since the 1992 Rio Earth Summit, with sadness we recognize that the interconnected problems of development, equity and ecology have become more severe over the past twenty years. We painfully realize that our credibility as bearers of the image of the Divine is at stake in a world where we allow so many to live in misery, in a habitat devastated by the pursuit of short-term self interest. The ideals of a shared responsibility for the well-being of the human family and the greater community of life have been expressed passionately in the Earth Charter, the Johannesburg Declaration, and in many other commitments since the Rio Earth Summit. What has prevented us from realizing these commitments? Adherents of spiritual traditions should be the vanguard of speaking truth to power. We have to take part of the blame, as we have allowed ourselves to become fragmented. We acknowledge that we have failed to live as compassionately as we could have, and that some have created human misery in the name of religion. Yet we believe in the power of repentance, and seek to counter fear with hope. We cannot change the past, but from the honest acknowledgement of our mistakes, we can draw the strength and insight to change the future for the better. Our soul-searching compels us to enter the conference rooms in Rio not by preaching, but by leading through example. The missing element ? a spirit of trust and collaboration All negotiations will fail as long as there is no trust, no respect and no hope. In our different traditions and cultures there exist similar parables that urge us to express empathy on a global scale. Humanity is one body. When one part of the body aches, the other parts feel the pain. For breaking the threshold in the international negotiations we need to rebuild trust between governments of the North and the South, East and West, between NGOs and the business sector, and different schools of thought. When we are able to help each other transcend the prison of self interest, everything will be possible. We should not have to fear anymore the presumed hidden agendas of the others but rather be open to see in each others? eyes the manifestation of the image of the source of all being. This is the spirit which we hope to see at the Rio + 20 Conference. Reorienting our economic bottom line towards full human development At the heart of the great diversity of our spiritual teachings, there is a common theme: They teach that, in this world of death and suffering, ignorance, fear and desire ? through right understanding and practice ? an individual can connect to the deeper, ulimate, radiant and caring source of all that is, and create a way of living that assists all in finding a fullfilling and enduring life. To make development truly sustainable, our economic, scientific and technological accomplishments should assist the processes of individual, psychological and spiritual development. We must reorient our economic bottom line to support this full human development if we wish to live in a flourishing Earth community. Our committments to accelerate the Great Transition towards sustainability, equity and well-being We, who represent such a magnificent diversity of religious and spiritual expressions, commit to the following: We commit to transcend traditional boundaries and speak in one unprecedented unified voice. We repent where our traditions and organizations have promoted violence and injustice towards others, and have supported the destruction of the environment. We embrace with joy the blessed opportunity to forge a global partnership to truely care for Earth and one another. We recognize that the principle of compassion lies at the heart of all religious, spiritual, and ethical traditions, calling us always to treat others as we wish to be treated ourselves. We commit to fully engage in the paradigm shift towards universal responsibility and global empathy with all our brothers and sisters, and the whole community of life on Earth. Manifestations of this global empathy such as the Earth Charter, the Charter for Compassion, and the Uppsala Interfaith Climate Manifesto will guide our way towards strengthened interfaith collaboration for creating a more just, peaceful, and sustainable future. We commit to tread more lightly on Earth and regard it as our sacred duty to lead through example and demonstrate sustainable living in our religious and spiritual communities. In this, we draw strength, encouragement and inspiration from the many good practices that are already being applied by religious communities around the world. We commit to educate ourselves to work effectively in development policy arenas, understanding the critical changes that need to be made in our economic and governance structures to create a flourishing future for all. We commit to redouble our efforts of serving as forces for good, by weighing in on the major international processes including Rio + 20, the UN Decade on Education for Sustainable Development and the realisation of the Millennium Development Goals. We speak out for recognizing the importance of the global ethical and spiritual consciousness awakening in civil society around the world for advancing the transition to sustainable development. In fact, we consider this global ethical consciousness as the foundation of the other three pillars of a sustainable way of life, because it involves the internalization of the values of sustainable human development; it is a source of inspiration and motivation for action, as well as an essential guide regarding the path to genuine sustainability. This elevated intention of the world?s spiritual and religious leaders to awaken a global ethical and spiritual consciousness in civil society is bound to have a vibrant impact on others. Inspired by the values and commitments of this community of leaders, it is our hope that the world community will find the courage and strength to fully engage in elevated action and shift the old paradigm, taking us beyond national self-interest. Our appeals to the Rio + 20 Conference We appeal to the representatives of governments and international institutions to likewise transcend national boundaries and take measures which seem to contravene national self interest but are necessary for preserving the community of life. We applaud your courageous steps towards unified action at the beginning of the third Millennium by adopting the Millennium Development Goals. We urge you to honour your commitment to realize these goals by 2015, and adopt goals that go further by 2030, which should include the goal to completely eradicate poverty by that date. We urge the representatives of all governments to: ? Show courageous leadership in addressing the major global challenges that threaten the very survival of humanity on this planet. ? Create a green economy that ensures social justice and equity, protects the ecological balance and creates economic sufficiency by internalizing social and environmental costs into the economic bottom line. ? Create structures for global governance with a global trusteeship mandate for Earth?s common goods such as fresh water, healthy soil, clean air, the oceans, the atmosphere and the diversity of life that are essential conditions for human life and well-being which cannot be sensibly privately owned and traded on markets. ? Affirm a framework of strong sustainability aimed at securing Earth?s bounty and beauty for present and future generations, such as the Earth Charter, as a guide to development policy and practice. ? Acknowledge the importance of the spiritual dimension of sustainability ? that when basic needs have been met, human development is primarily about being more, not having more. A solemn moment of existential global decision making Our religious and spiritual traditions command us not only to feed the hungry, but to give of our own bread. This is not a deed of charity but of justice. We therefore call upon each citizen of the world community, especially within the rich countries and communities, to pledge each year an extra global empathy share of 0.1 % of one?s income to raise the necessary funds to alleviate abject misery, to realize the Millennium Development Goals, and to respond to urgent humanitarian crises such as the current famine in the horn of Africa. We hope that in time we may form out of our midst a Council of Conscience which speaks with moral authority, provides guidance on the urgent global challenges humanity is facing and issues alerts about perilous trends and hidden conflicts that escape the attention of the media and public awareness. This is a solemn moment of existential global decision making. The Rio + 20 Conference provides a historic opportunity to lead the world into a more sustainable future. We do not have another twenty years to lose. To move forward in our best interests and even more in the interests of those yet to be born, we must change our course of negotiation and realize that only together can we forge inclusive solutions. Humble in the recognition that we are but dust and ashes, we are conscious that the consequences of our decisions and actions will be felt by many generations to come. We turn to the Source of All Blessings for strength and courage. May our children, and our children?s children not be disappointed with our actions, may we be able to make them proud.

Man Crush List: Tailbacks in the 2011 draft
Each year we all fall in love with draft prospects.
When I say ALL I'm talking about owners, executives, coaches, scouts, and fans. Everyone has preferences, and develop man crushes, and they usually surface during the draft.
Sometimes it's the body of work they produced during their college career. Maybe it's one particular game we see them play. Sometimes it's how they showcased themselves during a week of practice, or in a postseason showcase game.
EVERYONE develops crushes on a prospect or two, and it's those individuals we'll bang on the table for.
I've annually produced a man crush list, and in the past it's featured players like Joe Flacco, whose arm strength blew me away at the Senior Bowl, Peyton Hillis, who runs with the physical style I prefer, Sean Smith, whose athleticism stood out during a workout I watched, Pierre Garcon, whose small school college film was eye opening, and Jimmy Graham, whom I've had a crush on since he was a freshman basketball player at UM.
Not all of my man crushes are first round prospects, and that's purposely done. And truth is they all don't become stars (still waiting on Reshad Jennings and Tom Zbikowski).
But when it does happen for them, when their NFL careers finally take off, it fills me with pride to know I was an early card carrying member of their fan club.
This year I'm going to do my man crush list a little different, breaking it down my positions.
The first group features three tailbacks: University of Miami's Damien Berry, who is projected as a late-round prospects, Oklahoma State's Kendall Hunter, who is projected as a second or third round option, and Louisville's Bilal Powell, who is viewed as fourth or fifth round target.
I know I picked Alabama's Mark Ingram in my ON THE BEAT mock draft, but trust me, if the Dolphins get a duo that features two of these three players I'd be extremely pleased because they all have the makings of 1,000 yard rushers in the NFL.
Berry runs with power (which I prefer), he's got great vision, and deceptive speed (4.52 40-time). He reminds me of Frank Gore because he'll routinely put together a couple of 10-to-20 yards runs a game. None of them will blow you away, but when you add them up it explains why he's averaging nearly five yards a carry.
Powell, a quick footed one-cut runner, impressed me at the Senior Bowl by consistently popping out of piles. What concerns me about Powell is he only had one productive season, and he's played in a pistol offense, which gave him more time to identify holes.
Hunter is super small (5-7, 199 pounds), but he's an inside runner who has good body control, and plays with balance. He's shifty and elusive. The biggest concern I have about Hunter centers on his size, which makes me wonder how effective of a blocker he'll be, and if he can physically manage 200-plus carries a season in the NFL.
So, which tailback in the 2011 draft has your heart?

The Sansa e280 has full functionality when used independently of the computer. When plugged into the computer and started normally through the USB the computer does not see it at all. It does not show up in Device Manager or anywhere else. The firmware update does not detect it. I have switched back and forth in the USB modes. It does charge through the USB cable but that is all. I have tried other cables with it.
The only way the computer does anything is using the method described ie, locking, holding the center button and plugging in the cable. Device manager "sees" it with an error message attached ie that Tango message.
Any suggestions?
BTW, I have tried these things on win7 ultimate, professional, xp and vista. I am using the latest version Media player.

That's gotta be a driver thing. The default mode of these players (far as I understand, having like, been the first guy on the internet to unbrick a View, and all) is a goofy mode called MTP, Media Transfer Protocol if I remember correctly. Only Windows Media Player can work with it, and it comes up in Device Manager under "Media devices" instead of "Disk Drives" (check for yourself!). That's where the Settings menu comes in, and checking for the MSC (Mass Storage Controller) option. Or check for an e280 firmware update that enables it - SanDisk heard a crapload of bitchin' when they first release players that only worked as MTP devices
wate. Dammit, now I'm starting to understand how people skim posts so easily. F**k 8:30am. OK, well, being as though it is 8:30am and I've gotta be on the road at 8:45am, I'd better get rolling... I'll pick this up in a few hours
Can you reupload the .7z file please? It's giving a "Corrupted Content" error.
Also some browsers and download managers have problems some files. You may want to try with another download setup if the file isn't being downloaded properly.

Hi! My Sansa e280 recently got the blue ring of death and I tried out your ViewTool to fix it. Everything goes well until the erasing part. I held down the play/pause button the entire time I went through each procedure and the erasing message never came up. (My OS is Windows XP, by the way.)
As a result, this happened:
So what did I do wrong? Was I not supposed to press down the play/pause button until the Press Any Key prompt came up? Or did I Press Any Key too soon at some point? How long should I be holding the play/pause button down? What else should I do to get my display screen back?
VIEWtool is for the Sansa VIEW, not for the e280. It's BASED on the e200tool, but is designed for the View instead.
Can't understand where you got the idea that you should try using Viewtool to unbrick your e280 when there's an e200tool that's designed for your player... *scratches head*... I think the biggest confusion is why you didn't even acknowledge that you're using an e280 with Viewtool. *scratches head again*
edit: In fact, I don't even see anywhere on that screenshot you posted, where it says to hold "play/pause"... I see "hold HOME", but not play/pause... if you don't have the buttons it's talking about in the program, what didn't click in your head that said "this must be the wrong program!"...?
But anyway, that's no problem; I got it fine through a proxy.
Now, after the 5 firmware files are copied onto the 16MB FORMAT drive, I disconnect it, it writes the files fine, but when my View restarts it goes back to "Tango" mode again. Before, I had an idea to try to "boot" the View from a MicroSD card and it worked partially; I could transfer music on to the SD card and play iton the View, but sometimes the View would randomly restart and go back to tango mode or not detect the files on the SD card (the homescreen didn't show any icons and if I tried to scroll it'd go back to Tango mode. If I pressed select and go into the music section, it said there weren't any songs on the View.) Also, transferring files on to the View would be nearly impossible because everytime I started a Synch or drag n drop, it would stop after a few files and say the drive has an I/O error or something like that. Any advice or help would be appreciated
Probably a cache problem. Maybe Shift+F5 would do it.
As for the Tango problem, there's a couple of things. One, 16MB-FORMAT is a RAM drive, not a real "drive". It's all emulated, as a way to get files into the system. It then reads those files (from RAM) and applies them to an *already formatted* Flash area, with *no* error detection or reporting. The View will never report if a flash failed - it just goes "urrp dee doo, durp dee hurr, write write write", and hopes it completes successfully. That's why you have to boot into the recovery mode and perform a manual Erase, to get the flash partitioned properly. That is, if your flash is working to begin with!
With the I/O problems you're talking about (and I'd LOVE to know how the hell you managed to boot your View from the MicroSD - I tried making that work for hours!), it seems entirely likely that your internal Flash chip/board came unplugged from the board... for one, a View won't brick itself on its own (without screwing something up using USB-MSC mode), so if yours "just quit working", it's almost certainly a connector problem inside - it's not actually screwed down to anything at all inside. Just get the thing open (one screw under a cover on the bottom, rest are snaps around the edges), take out the main PCB (a couple screws around the edges), and snap the Flash board back on.
The Flash board uses a SD controller to make the "chip" appear to be an SD card to the View, so it essentially has 2 SD cards. Maybe the fact that your main SD chip is unplugged, caused it to "fall back" to the MicroSD card and boot off that instead. But when the OS booted, it tried to go back and use the "main" SD card (which wasn't attached) and that caused the I/O errors.
Definitely take that sucker apart and check that Flash chip!
OK I'll try that and hope for the best. As for the booting from MicroSD card, I don't completely recall exactly what I did. Firstly, I formatted the SD card, then I put the firmware files from version 01.03.02f into it (I may have included the VERSION.txt file from the 16 MB FORMAT drive, but I'm not sure). I made the battery of the View completely drain, reset it, inserted the SD card, and plugged it into my PC.The (if I remember correctly) it refreshed it's database, I went into MSC mode, put the firmware files into the root directory and unplugged the View, and it said something along the lines of "Installing firmware" and it worked partially okay after that, but with all the problems I described in my last post. I'm trying to go back to booting from MicroSD but it's not going as well as I'd like. Tell me if you figure it out
EDIT: No luck Is there a way to make the View completely boot from a MicroSD card without accessing the flash chip at all? I think it's been dropped once too many times and it has hardware problems.

I had some trouble because it got stuck on LUN0 unlocking. I just had to give it an "Eject" from my computer.
Also, I had to use Google Chrome to download the archive, because Mozilla gave me a "corrupted file" error.
I couldn't be happier. I shall drink to your health :)
Seriously, if I can help you with something, I will try.
Updated the link since apparently it got dumped from Hostfile for inactivity. It's on my Dropbox now and it should now be active for life...
Thanks for posting your fix again. Thought you had abandoned us. Good to see you're still helping others.
I've had a couple of friends that were really disappointed they couldn't re-up their Views. I'll check in with them and let them know they should be able to get them running again. Hope they didn't get rid of them.

Well, considering as though the only notice I've seen on the matter is this brain-dead response from a nobody with 1 post:
Grammar does matter.
Hi, I'm trying to unbrick a Sansa e200v1 I have laying around for a while.
I followed the instructions, got the drivers manually installed:
but I'm getting an error running One-Click UnBrick: "Missing file 1.2.09a\bitmap.dat"
The file is there, and I have adm rights, so it must be something else, I'm stuck.
I've tried all the options while plugging the player on the computer and it does not do anything other than the blue ring of death.
(Pressing REC, middle bottom or play)
No HD shows up in windows explorer, windows 7 tried to install it once, failed and doesn't recognize it anymore.
*Edit* Tried to install the drives on another computer running XP and it doesn't accept it. (?)
Also, how can I find Firmware version v01.02.09a?
The Sansa site only offers the latest (e200v101.02.24a), shouldn't that work?
What am I doing wrong, please?
Last edited by CoachMcGuirk; 02-11-2013 at 03:33 PM.
This thread and tools aren't for the e200v1.
Interested in Google's Summer of Code ? PM me.
Duh, my bad, I have a view too and got confused having the names mixed up.
I should uninstall and do it again.
Hopefully there's a tool for e200v1.
The last time I recovered a v1 E200 I used the guide here http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum...ad.php?t=11233 If that doesn't work then you can try the guide you'll find here http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum...ad.php?t=31275
Here's hoping the directions in the first link work. If you can get into recovery mode that's the way to go. My experience has been if you have to try to access manufacturing mode the chance of recovery are lower.
A Glossary For Newbies Why Rockbox? FLAC or MP3? How To Ask Questions The Smart Way
Thanks for the reply.
I burned my brains getting the instructions for both players mixed up. (e200 and view)
Pressing REC while plugging doesn't show the 16 MB partition, so Recovery Mode is a no-go.
May I ask you something about booting from the Linux Live CD?
Is it going to install Linux on my HD or it runs only from the CD?(Linux total newbie here.)
A live CD runs Linux directly from the CD. There's no installation to your hard drive. It's runs somewhat slower than if it were installed on a partition on the HDD but that shouldn't be an issue in this case.

ZF-11451: Zend Validate fails to validate emails with dot at the end
Zend_Validate_EmailAddress fails to validate emails with a dot at the end.
$validate = new Zend_Validate_EmailAddress();
var_dump($validate->isValid('firstname.lastname@example.com.')); // Returns true, should be false
This seems like a bug that was recently introduced since i tested on version 1.10.5 and it works ok, returns false as expected.
My guess is that it was introduced in 1.11.2 with ZF-6363, which corrected the URI validator to accept a URI with a trailing period as valid. Since Zend_Validate_EmailAddress uses Zend_Validate_Hostname for host part validation by default, URIs with trailing dots then became valid email addresses.
RFC-2822 (S3.4 - Address Specification) does not permit email addresses to have a trailing dot in the domain part, so IMO the current behavior is incorrect.
Reproduce test case:
* @group ZF-11222
* @group ZF-11451
public function testEmailAddressesWithTrailingDotInHostPartAreRejected()
Test fails until this modification is made to Zend_Validate_EmailAddress:
Index: library/Zend/Validate/EmailAddress.php
--- library/Zend/Validate/EmailAddress.php (revision 24123)
+++ library/Zend/Validate/EmailAddress.php (working copy)
@@ -527,8 +527,9 @@
// Split email address up and disallow '..'
+ // and disallow addresses ending with a '.'
if ((strpos($value, '..') !== false) or
- (!preg_match('/^(.+)@([^@]+)$/', $value, $matches))) {
+ (!preg_match('/^(.+)@([^@]+[^.])$/', $value, $matches))) {
return false;
Then all email-related tests in Zend_Validate test suite pass.
Fixed in trunk r24124
Merged to release-1.11 in r24125
Please note that for hostnames (the ending part of an email adress) an ending dot is a valid adress according to RFC.
BUT: Only for local adresses, not for DNS names.
Adam: Your fix is bogus. When an individual hostname validator is used within the email validator then emails get now validated as fails even if they are correct.
Note that for local hostnames a ending dot is allowed according to RFC as also for emails from a local domain.
See GH-229 for the correct implementation. Your tests pass this change without touching the Email validator.
Please backport this fix to ZF1 to fix this bug and remove your changes from the Email validator.
Reverted r24125 and r24124 from SVN repo in r24304 and r24305, respectively.
Issue will be fixed once backporting of GH-229 is completed (see ZF-6363)
Fixed in ZF2 with GH-279

This week's feature is on Maddy Mercier, a 5-7 senior defender on the Oregon women's soccer team.
Maddy is currently pursing an undergraduate degree in Human Physiology (Pre-Med). Her presence in the classroom and on the field is matched by her extraordinary involvement within the Eugene-Springfield community through her commitment to O Heroes. Even with her demanding schedule, Maddy excels as an O Hero.
Among many other O Heroes projects that she has volunteered for, Maddy worked especially close with the Boys and Girls Club of the Emerald Valley on the remodel of the "O Heroes room". This past summer, Maddy joined 20 fellow student-athletes for the Courts for Kids service trip to the Dominican Republic where she worked to build a sport court for the community.
Post-graduation, Maddy plans to move to Seattle, attend medical school and continuing her passion for working with kids and volunteering at local hospitals.

Mountain bike Festival at Valmont Bike Park
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
From the Daily Camera
This Sunday, Sunday, Sunday....
In addition to the slope-style racing on Sunday, Valmont will have a cross-country course set up on the northern end of the park and a timing setup for the dual slalom course after the dual slalom clinics, said organizer Brian Hludzinski.

Oh, and there's one more race -- the kids race.
"We're trying to make it not so competitive," Hludzinski said, "more like a festival atmosphere, and engage the whole cycling community, not just the competitive side of it."

ZF-3958: Wrong call for new SoapFault in Zend_Soap_Server::fault() breaks SOAP exception handling
SoapFault expects the code parameter being a string instead of an integer. If code is an integer, the SoapException reports an internal server error instead of the correct one.
The correct call has to be:
return new SoapFault( (string) $code, message );
You're correct, line 799 of server.php needs to have (string) to works correctly. Now I can register Exception and use it in the handled class. Thanks.
Shouldn't this be considered high priority? It effectively breaks exception handling, as Exception->getCode() is always is an integer.
This is the patch. I'm not sure if it is the correct format. Please give feedback.
Fixed in trunk
Changing issues in preparation for the 1.7.0 release.

My research is concerned with investigating how the brain controls eye movements. In particular we are studying the neural control of vergence, accommodation, and pupil diameter. Despite their clinical relevance, comparatively little is known about how these particular eye movements are controlled by the brain. In my laboratory, we use electrophysiological, behavioral, and neuroanatomical techniques to investigate this question. Our studies will provide essential information as to the way in which the brain controls these specific types of movements. More generally these studies should yield general insights into the neural control of all types of movements.

ZF-6134: Zend_Loader_PluginLoader accepts duplicate prefix paths
Zend_Loader_PluginLoader::addPrefixPath has no check to ensure that the same path is not added multiple times per prefix. This issue can be inadvertently triggered by the following process:
1) Zend_Form is instantiated. 2) Zend_Form_SubForm is instantiated and set to use the same plugin loader as the form instance. 3) The subform instance is added to the form via Zend_Form::addSubForm, which implicitly adds all the form's loader's prefix paths to the subform (which adds them to the subform's loader, also the form's loader - and round and round we go).
The solution is to have Zend_Loader_PluginLoader::addPrefixPath check $this->_prefixToPaths[$prefix] for $path before adding it. Though I'm not entirely certain how or why it would have this effect, making this change removed a huge bottleneck in a Zend_Form-based class I dealt with recently and shaved the load time from 15 seconds to 5 seconds.
A patch to implement the change is attached. (I svn blame Ralph for this. :P)
Added unittest.diff which patches tests/Zend/Loader/PluginLoaderTest.php to add a test case for this patch.
Patches by Matthew applied and tested, committed and merged into 1.9 release branch.

On Monday, October 8, 2012, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland, Ohio, welcomed its 9-millionth visitor since opening its doors on September 2, 1995. Lucky visitor Judy Herlihy from Rochester, New York, arrived to great fanfare when she entered the Museum at 11:30 am, as 500 balloons fell to the tune of Ian Hunter's "Cleveland Rocks," and a cheering crowd of Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum staff provided a rousing welcome. As the nine-millionth visitor, Herlihy received a lifetime membership to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum, a VIP vault tour, dinner for her and three guests at the Hard Rock Café in Cleveland, a SiriusXM Edge Radio with vehicle kit and free three-month subscription to XM Premier, and a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum 25th Anniversary merchandise package.
An avid music fan, the recently retired Herlihy spent the summer attending numerous concerts in the area. Herlihy, who had never visited Cleveland before, put touring the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum at the top of her list: "I just had to come to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ...
As the world's only museum devoted to rock and roll – the foremost cultural movement of our time – we're committed to engaging fans from around the world, both in and outside the Museum. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's website, social media and e-newsletter keep you connected with all the latest from the world of rock and roll, so we want to hear from you to let us know how we're doing and to better understand the Rock Hall online community.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum is pleased to partner with Microsoft Zune for Five Minutes with Fame, an exclusive video series on the Zune Marketplace featuring singers, songwriters and bands at the forefront of today's music. After a behind-the-scenes tour of the Museum, we sit down with artists to talk about their music, their road to success, inspirations, being on tour and of course, some of their favorite artists and artifacts highlighted in the Museum. This week's featured artist is Hollywood Undead.
As their name not-so subtly suggests, Hollywood Undead emerged from the music scene in Tinseltown, combining elements of hip-hop and hardcore in a sound they call "heavy pop." The first incarnation of the band took shape in 2005, and evolved into the six mask-wearing musicians that compose Hollywood Undead today: Johnny 3 Tears, J-Dog, Charlie Scene, Da Kurlzz, Funny Man and Daniel "Danny" Murillo.
The band's debut album Swan Songs was released in 2008, selling more than 800,000 copies worldwide. Sales were helped by two years on the road that found the band headlining international gigs and on the bill at major festivals, including the Download Festival in the UK ...
About 14 months ago the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame began working on a redesign of the museum's galleries. It was a project that we had talked about for quite a few years, and in September 2010 it finally got underway. The project had a couple of main goals: upgrading all of the audio, video and interactive elements, improving wayfinding and – most importantly – reorganizing the exhibits so they tell the story of rock and roll in a more chronological way. The Museum's exhibits have always covered the entire history of rock and roll, from the roots of rock up to the present, but they were never in any particular order. The roots exhibits were in one section of the main gallery, while the Fifties exhibit was way on the other side of the gallery. We wanted to correct that.
Making these changes meant we had to have a lot of new cases built, and we also added a few new exhibits. For example, we used to have an exhibit on Ohio music; now we have an exhibit on Cleveland's music and one on the music of the Midwest. We also added a heavy metal exhibit, and ...
Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news: it's Chuck Berry's birthday.
Let's hear it for the man who taught us about everything from cooling off your car's engine with rain water blowin' all under the hood, to all we needed to know about girls named "Carol" and "Nadine." In fact, the Shakespeare of rock and roll informed us about most the things we needed to know in those nascent days of the music that's become the soundtrack of our lives.
Imagine what it meant to me when he referred to my hometown of Mobile in "Let It Rock." It was great being with you recently, Mr. Berry, and it thrills me that you are still knockin' 'em out like Johnny B. Goode.
More About Hall of Fame Inductee Chuck Berry:
(pictured: Chuck Berry's Gibson ES-335, part of the Museum's featured collection)
While no individual can be said to have invented rock and roll, Chuck Berry comes the closest of any single figure to being the one who put all the essential pieces together. It was his particular genius to graft country & western guitar licks onto a rhythm & blues chassis in his very ...
This week, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum was honored to host an international discussion when BBC World Service's World Have Your Say broadcast live from the Museum's Alan Freed Studio. The program brought together a diverse panel of guests, including Rock and Roll Hall of Fame President and CEO Terry Stewart and Rock Hall Vice President of Education and Public Programs Lauren Onkey, who traded insights with remote guests English singer-songwriter Billy Bragg, Egyptian rapper and poet Mohamed El Deeb, Yoko Ono and more. Host Ros Atkins posed the question that fueled the program's discussion: Has protest music disappeared?
"We had a spirited discussion about whether music can bring about social change," says Onkey. "It's a difficult thing to measure. The easy thing to do is to pull out a topical song, like an anti-war or anti-apartheid song, and measure it against whether or not something changed about that specific issue. But I think that change is harder to measure, and much broader and sometimes more subtle than that.
"Songs can educate us about an issue or a point of view from the past – The Specials' "Ghost Town," Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young ...
Steve Jobs famously spoke about "1,000 songs in your pocket." That was in 2001. In a time when the rest of the world was still trying to understand e-commerce, Jobs had a vision. It wasn't about giving the people what they want. It was about showing them something new, something they never dreamed about, something irresistible. His mantra was to make it simple, fast, convenient and easy to use. You could get nearly anything in one click. Music was not only easier to purchase, but also easier to carry, easier to store and easier to access.
Like the transistor radio in the '50s, the iPod altered the course of music by changing the way a new generation of fans found and consumed new music. Every day at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum, we see teenagers who are seeking out seminal rock and roll artists. They're looking for the Beatles, the Stones, the Doors, the Who and countless other artists, some of whom haven't recorded in 30 or 40 years. They're passionate fans. They're wearing the T-shirts. They know every song, and they've made their pilgrimage to the Rock and ...

Rated 4 out of 5 by 3 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by StacieLeeAnn Love I ordered this online. I love the stain color and the size. Well worth the price. March 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Pigweed73 Awesome! Saw it in the store and fell in love with it. I love rustic decor and the chalkboard is a bonus! August 14, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Sharonesuhr CUTE, but chalkboard markers don't wipe off. I was so excited when I saw this chalkboard. I have several chalkboards in my home and I thought this would be perfect to hang in the kitchen for the use of displaying the weekly dinner menu plan or to keep a grocery list. I love the size and it's beautiful. BUT, be warned. My wonderful chalkboard markers that wipe off of EVERY OTHER chalk board I own, won't completely wipe off of this board. Even after scrubbing with soap and water, the chalkboard is "stained" by my original writing on it. Since my chalkboard markers wipe off easily from the other chalkboards I have and that my children use, my only guess is that the coating of chalkboard paint on this board is very porous. I imagine that plan old fashioned pieces of chalk would wipe off fine...... but, with chalkboards being such a fad right now, I imagine that most people are turning to the wipeable markers as opposed to old fashioned dusty chalk. I'm not exactly sure how to proceed with this dilemma. Since I adore the overall size and look of this particular board, I may attempt to paint it over with a fresh (thick) coat of quality chalkboard paint and see if I can rehab the thing myself. bottom line - be careful with using chalkboard markers. old fashioned chalk seems to work better. :( January 29, 2015
