Chambers Delimbinator
If you've seen one of our DeLimbinators lately, then you've probably noticed our new flail pan design. The new center ridge shape of the pan has several advantages such as the weight of your wood riding on the pan rather than the bottom drum. This reduces stress on the drum and bearings. It also allows debris to exit the flail area more easily which extends the life of the flail chains.

Potential reasons:
Driver or hardware issues that cause transient problems and
prevent timely write-back of information (unlikely) or cause
writes to the wring areas. It may be faulty RAM. It may be
a faultu cache entry or the like.
What would be interesting is whether there is any other
data corruption and what its exact form is (e.g.
is there an all-zero sector or is some other data in it).
Have you looked at the SMART attributes (any other test is
really quite meaningless today) and tun a long SMART selftest?

Ileana Salinas, a senior psychology major at Arizona State University, is considering law school. If she goes, she will be prepared because of support she's receiving in a mentoring program for minority students.
Salinas has participated in the diversity-pipeline program since she was a senior at Westview High School in Avondale, where she graduated with honors.
The program, a partnership between the Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law and the Hispanic National Bar Association, consists of teams composed of an attorney who mentors a law school student, who mentors an undergraduate, who mentors a high schooler. Some middle school students have even become involved.
Salinas especially enjoyed her team's visit to a law firm.
"The attorney explained to us exactly what he does," she said. "He gave us a tour of his office, and he explained about the transition from law school to becoming an attorney."
Last year, law students spoke to fifth- and sixth-graders at Eliseo Felix Elementary School in Goodyear.
"The (Goodyear) students were so enthused by this visit, they clamored to take a visit to the courthouse," said Charles Calleros, an ASU law professor who started the mentoring program in metro Phoenix and who won an award this month for his outreach work.
A large group of the Goodyear students took the field trip to Maricopa County Superior Court and the state Legislature.
At South Mountain High School, law students teach programs associated with Street Law, a non-profit organization that promotes law, democracy and human rights.
"We have a very solid partnership between ASU and South Mountain High School," Calleros said.
Teachers in Maryvale have brought middle-school students to mentoring dinners, "and a couple of students were really moved to be there," Calleros said.
Maryvale students have participated in ASU's annual law library tour and exercise in which they learned how to look up cases and read them.
"We give a small summary of the cases so they know what students do at the law school," Salinas said. "In this program, you can be both mentor and mentee. I have contact with high school students, but in the same group, there is a law school student I can look up to and ask for help."
Topics of discussion among the groups include the Law School Admission Test, the Bar exam and the transitions in high school, college, law school and the professional world.
Among the attorney mentors are Barbara Rodriguez-Pashkowski, a partner at Gust Rosenfeld, and several others at the Phoenix firm.
After a kickoff dinner, attorneys are continually available.
"We're there for them to call if they have questions about school, law school, jobs, taking tests," Rodriguez-Pashkowski said.
"I've even had students call me about research projects they're conducting for other law firms," she added. "That's OK- that's what we're there for."
Throughout the year, attorneys and students get together for dinner, lunch or coffee.
"We've taken them to ball games and for manicures and pedicures," she said.
The firm also has held seminars on interviewing skills.
Last year, two law students, Javier Grajeda and Jamaar Williams, got hands-on experience by working as interns at Community Legal Services with their mentor, senior staff attorney Mike Somsan.
Somsan credits Grajeda with keeping a woman from being evicted and becoming homeless.
"He did a lot of work on this case," Somsan said. "He was outlining the case for the hearing officer. He was taking statements from witnesses, acting almost like an attorney but with me watching him. . . . He saw that practicing law has consequences for people."
Calleros doesn't expect all of the youngsters to go to law school but to at least pursue education.
"For the younger students, our goal is to get them to set their sights high academically, to understand there are attorneys out there who look like them, who came from the same community and became successful."

How do I stop being so damn lazy?
67 Comments- Get free updates of new posts here
Perhaps our generation's greatest failing is how lazy we are.
How many of my readers have sent me emails talking about how they want to change… how they want to improve their finances, earn more, or get healthier…or even READ my book (which is sitting under their bed)… but they simply can't find the motivation to do so? They can't stop being lazy.
Thousands and thousands every year.
Interestingly, we GENUINELY want to change our behavior. We simply cannot figure out how to stop being lazy. We use words like "motivation" (one of the worst words to use in behavioral change since it means almost nothing). We say the "S" word: "Yeah, I really should do that…"
We do all kinds of things that seem intuitive, but are worthless at best, and counter-productive at worst.
Think about the most common things you want to change. For most of us, they fall into similar buckets: Improve our careers, money, relationships, and health. Under those, you get specific things like "I want to travel more", "I want to work less", "I want to stop procrastinating".
All achievable. Yet few of us do.
Over the last 12 years, I've developed several models for driving behavioral change. That's how I get results like this.
I publicize these behavioral models of these in a variety of places, and some I keep private.
Important behaviors on how to stop being lazy
- Whenever you say "should" — "Yeah, I really should do X" or "They should just do Y" — you have already lost
- Guilt is not a productive emotion
- Quick wins produce massive momentum for behavioral change. (Hint: This is why financial books that begin with "create a budget" are almost never effective. This is a massively important and frequently missed point.)
- Automation is more powerful than almost anyone can imagine
- Simply "trying harder" will almost never work, yet most Americans follow this policy repeatedly for their entire lives
- Tactics are not enough. Most of us have crippling barriers and invisible scripts that "screen" out even the most sophisticated tactics. (For example, I could give you the best tips on earning more ever created, but if you don't believe you deserve money, nothing matters — you will not even process the tips.)
I can get into more of this later, but today, I wanted to share an extremely insightful comment I ran across about being lazy.
How to stop being lazy: one Redditor's answer
The answer one commenter gave was so insightful that I'm re-posting it here for my own readers:
QUESTION: How can I stop being so damn lazy?
BEST ANSWER: "Look man, there are literally hundreds of good ways to get on with the tasks on your plate.
I find a combination of good goal setting and use of things like The Pomodoro Technique work wonders for helping me get stuff done and move forward.
But it's not so much about being productive. It's about living up to your word.
I'm guessing that you're a creative, intelligent sort of person. Are you a perfectionist? That seems likely. Oftentimes, people with those characteristics really get bogged down by the magnitude of the tasks in front of them. Doing something means risking failing at it. Sometimes that risk seems to loom so large, and the drive to perfectionism is so strong, that any sort of meaningful and productive task just seems like it's not worth it. Why risk failing, when you can just do something else instead?
Of course, in the back of your mind you know that those choices are causing you to fail anyway. That's why you're miserable.
So you have to re-think things in a different way. First up, you have to give yourself permission to fail, permission to be less than perfect sometimes. Failing at something, making mistakes, opens up a great opportunity to learn something new.
Second, you have to recognize that laziness and procrastination are destructive to your word. When you take on a task you make a promise to somebody (perhaps just yourself, but somebody) that you will complete that task. Putting that off brings you out of integrity with your word in the matter. That's not bad, or wrong, it just is what there is in the situation.
But integrity is the thing that makes life work. It is the structure that holds our interactions together. When integrity fails, the structure collapses. Honoring your word is the way to make sure that the integrity of the situation remains intact.
The best way to honor your word is to put it into some sort of reality. Start making and keeping a schedule, and a to-do list, if you don't already. Start planning your actions, breaking them into smaller tasks that are more easily achievable. Those things serve as a very real reminder that you've made a promise that you need to keep. Your word has to be the thing that keeps you moving forward. Honoring that word has to become your primary motivation.
You also need to enlist others to keep you accountable. Get a friend to check up with you, and kick your ass. When you need motivating to take an action, somebody is there to hold you accountable for that action. This piece alone helped me finally finish up a college degree that had been awaiting completion for over 6 years. My friends found out, did all they could to help, and held me accountable to get it done.
But, most importantly, you have to recognize that honoring your word to yourself is absolutely critical. It's easy to keep promises to others, we don't like to disappoint. But it's much harder to keep your word with yourself. You are every bit as deserving of that respect as anybody else who might be involved.
Change your perspective. It'll change your life."
Nicely put. See the full discussion on how to stop being lazy here.
Want to stop being lazy? Start by listening to my interview with BJ Fogg
Earlier this year, I spent 16 hours prepping for a very special phone call. One of my mentors, Stanford psychologist BJ Fogg, taught me much of what I know about psychology and persuasion.
I asked him to spend an hour with me, where we would share our favorite techniques and tactics on behavioral change — on everything from money to exercising and flossing.
We talked about favorite persuasion studies from the academic research — then spend time sharing some of the persuasion models we've developed ourselves. And we recorded it.
It's easy to find some jackass blogger who can write "TOP 10 WAYS TO INFLUENCE YOUR NETWORK!!!" But finding someone who has a deep, thorough knowledge of academic research, plus practical persuasion is extraordinarily rare.
If you're interested in how to change your own behavior, I strongly encourage you to spend an hour listening to our conversation.
You can't get this kind of material anywhere else, and BJ is a tremendous expert with a lifetime of experience.
Here's what a few people said about the talk:
"Fantastic podcast… I have 5 pages of notes and a few great ideas to apply to my next training class I am holding in 2 weeks time.
I realise that I must change BEHAVIOUR, then the attitude and information will fall into place – the information itself is not enough.
Thanks Ramit & BJ."
– Michelle Brown
"I got so many things from this that it's difficult to choose. However, the two that really grabbed me were:
1. show gratitude
2. with the right baby steps you can get almost anyone, including yourself, to do anything.
I am off now to do some baby steps.
Thank you BJ and Ramit. Also thanks for posting the audio and transcript."
– Rob Middleton
"The one thing? That people are not rational. I KNOW this, but my default seems to be a belief that just a little more of the right information will do the job. Maybe it's because deep down, I don't want to admit that I'm not as rational as I would like to be, along with everyone else."
– Christina Ochs Nichols
In this conversation, here are a few nuggets that we share:
- Why you should never use the word "motivation"
- How to use the same principles that top persuasion experts use to persuade YOURSELF to change
- How a famous social psychologist used "self-persuasion" to change the way Americans eat
- How to use a simple, powerful technique to make yourself floss every night
- The role of barriers in persuasion
- One of the most famous examples of self-persuasion from WWII — and how you can use it yourself
- Unconventional approaches BJ has used to help people get dream jobs, get speaking engagements, and get national recognition
- How to become an expert in your field
- How to get a dream job that's not on ANY job board
- How to carve out a niche for yourself where you're the world's best person — and you can command the according respect and rates
Most importantly, instead of feeling guilty about how lazy you are, you'll learn productive techniques to change your behavior. And that is, quite simply, why this site exists.

Pearl Harbor Glossary (Grades 5-8)
Relevant terminology is provided in this area of the project. You may wish to print the glossary page as a reference tool for students who may benefit by having the definitions and explanations readily available to help them better understand the concepts explained throughout the story.
National Standards Correlations
Scholastic's "My Story: Pearl Harbor" helps students meet the following thematic strands identified in the national standards set forth by the National Council for the Social Studies:
- Culture: Social studies programs should include experiences that provide for the study of culture and cultural diversity.
- Time, Continuity, and Change: Social studies programs should include experiences that provide for the study of the ways human beings view themselves in and over time.
- People, Places, and Environment: Social studies programs should include experiences that provide for the study of people, places, and environments.
- Individual Development and Identity: Social studies programs should include experiences that provide for the study of individual development and identity.
- Individuals, Groups, and Institutions: Social studies programs should include experiences that provide for the study of interactions among individuals, groups, and institutions.
- Power, Authority, and Governance: Social studies programs should include experiences that provide for the study of how people create and change structures of power, authority, and governance.
- Global Connections: Social studies programs should include experiences that provide for the study of global connections and interdependence.

Lesson Planning Suggestions
"My Story: Pearl Harbor" includes an abundance of information and the flexibility to design its use to meet your classroom's needs. Below are some suggested ways you might use the topic in your school or classroom.
Relive December 7
Begin the study of the story of Pearl Harbor by reviewing the hour-by-hour events, re-creating history with your students. Throughout this section of the project area, use the "Activity Station" suggestions with several of the chapters to stimulate discussion or as writing prompts for your students.
Meet the Eyewitnesses
Once students have gained a basic familiarity with the historic events of December 7, 1941, explore the personal experience of people who lived through them in the profile and interview with the Ganos. This can also serve as an opportunity to teach your students about the interviewing process. Ask students to then interview family members or older individuals in the community about their memories of Pearl Harbor, or about other significant wartime memories and to write and share those interviews with the class.
Explore the History of Japanese-American Relations
You may want to assign small groups to research each event on the time line leading up to December 7. Students can start by clicking each date to access detailed information about the event. The hyperlinked Web sites within the text will provide additional online resources. Have each group present their event to the class, including their response to the discussion starters related to various items on the time line.
Additional Research
The Web links provided suggest teacher-approved Web sites where your students can safely extend knowledge on this topic using the Internet for further research on World War II.
Media Center (All grades: Art, Reading, Vocabulary, Writing)
Talk with your school librarian or media center director about creating a special World War II exhibit area through the library setting, highlighting related fiction and nonfiction works and other special resources in a specific area. As an extension, students can write reports about their readings and illustrate favorite passages to be displayed.
Personal Time Line (Grades 3-8: Art, Research Skills)
Ask your students to develop their own personal time line about their families during the years 1941-1945, or a time line of their own lives. A time line can be as traditional in format as a listing of events. A time line could also be represented through a chart, photographs, or objects. Provide an opportunity for your students to be true constructivists of their time lines, using whatever medium best fits their personal histories.
Sharing Family Stories (Grades 3-8: Writing, Interviewing)
The story of Pearl Harbor provides a way to discuss the importance and power of storytelling using personal experience and remembrance. Discuss with students how oral history makes historical events more real for us. Students can then interview family members and share their histories.
Communities (Grades 5-8: Map Skills, Research)
Look at world maps, discovering the location of the historical events described throughout this project. Where did the events occur? How did the events impact your community? Research what life was like in your community during World War II. Compare and contrast life then and now.
There are a variety of assessment opportunities built into this project. Throughout the project, teachers can observe and evaluate:
- social skills and process through collaborative assignments.
- oral discussion and comprehension skills.
- interviewing process, procedure, and presentation.
A rubric for assessment of student participation in this project might include the following general criteria:
|Level One
|Level Two
|Level Three
Essay Writing using an Activity Station topic or discussion starter from the time line
|Misspelling; grammatical errors; not clearly written
|Fewer technical mistakes; expressed a point of view but offered no supporting facts
|Error-free; well-organized arguments with supporting facts
Use of a map to demonstrate knowledge of the countries involved in World War II

Getting back into hobby, very confused by brand compatibility!
I'm confused. I was into RC a couple decades ago and it was simple. Pretty much Futaba and Airtronics, they were not compatible. There were other brands back then as well, but not like today. Now you go on a website and it just says servo. What the heck? Servo for what? what brand? What type of plug? Does it not matter anymore? And all these ESC's and gyros and receivers. Again, not a whimper of brand compatibility. My ARF stuff already have cheap, but adequate radios. But I am thinking about getting a radio that I can use with maybe a new heli I might get in the future. or maybe I want to fly foamies. I can get the airframe and add my own electronics. Or maybe BNF. Was playing around with the shopping cart at Hobbyking today with a setup for a 450 heli and no idea if the components I chose work together. Seems like the Turnigy 9x is popular around here. Does this one have model memory? Can't change trims each time.
Airtronic servos used to have different polarity than JR/Futaba but the newer Z-type are compatible. BNF are mostly DSM2 type which work only with JR/Spektrum DSM2/DSMX transmiters. The Turnigy 9X does have memory for several models and is chearfuly cheap but QC is poor so don't expect too much:
With todays 3 wire servo it's pretty much standard, with the odd exception or futaba with there little excess lip on the connector that can easily be trimmed off.
As for radio and receivers, look at it this way: with 2.4ghz radio it's pretty much brand specific and you can't interchange them.
There are some exceptions where overseas manufacturer who have no copy right laws simply manufacturer compatible receivers for popular brand of radios. Example 5$ receivers for spektrum radios...
Hobbyzone, etc.) transmitters. As noted above, 2.4 radios have proprietary protocols. You can't mix and match.
Sounds to me more like you are a candidate for Spektrum DX6i.

Wow, this answers my questions. Thanks a lot guys. I was aware of the DSM standard and wondered if the Turnigy had that or not. The Spektrum sounds like the way to go when I want to upgrade to something better it's really not that expensive for what it does, if the quality is good. The turnigy is so cheap, that makes it tempting but if it fails in flight with a 450, I fail to see the value.

Not sure if I am missing something here, but with the BNF models and hence Spektrum DSM2 compatibility issues with the 9x, wouldn't replacing the receiver in these BNF models with a Turnigy 9x receiver costing about $9 get rid of the compatibility problems?
But many of the most sought-after BNF models are the micros, which use Spektrum technology for which there is no ready substitute.

Yeah, the micros are nice cause I have a nice park close by, but I think it's big enough for a hand launched prop glider which I would like to start out with. Looks like I could go either way. I am pretty handy with things, you have to be in this hobby. Good to know it's as easy as buying a cheap receiver. And now I understand servos are servos. Makes things a lot easier. Even good servos are cheap, cheap ones are almost free at $3 a piece!
About Turnigy 9x.
I tested a lot of systems, maybe not as much as the guy from rcmodelreviews , but enough for some advices:
- Avoid DSM2, in a brief report, this system is no longer a good idea, it has severe project failures that make it more subjected to interference then others, including Turnigy.
- Avoid DX8, there are recalls and strange things happening all time. A colleague was using it, turned of one day, on the next day the aileron was not working anymore. He upgraded and solved, but it was not supposed to happen.
- Airtronics is nice, I tested and they are rock solid even with a lot of noise sources near;
- Turnigy 9 is nice, I testes at near 7km (6800m) and works fine. Of course there's lack of quality control, but if you're not new in hobby you have knowledge enough to open the case and visually check if there are no cold-soldering or broken wires. When it work, it works really fine, so just do a visual check, range check, check if all controls are working and you will be safe. Actually several friends of mine installed the same RF modules on 72MHz Futabas to upgrade them to 2.4GHz and have nice 8ch receivers at US$9 each, not US$150 each...
- Hitec is fine, works fine, and Hitec Aurora 9 is really easy to use
Currently I'm using:
- Turnigy 9x with original receivers
- Turnigy 9x with FrSky module, telemetry and telemetry receivers
- Hitec Aurora 9 with Hitec receivers
- Hitec Aurora 9 with FrSky module and FrSky receivers

Aurora 9
I started out as a noob a year ago with a Hitec Aurora 9 (after accidentally dropping CA on the sticks of my Spektrum DX5 that came with my Apprentice and before I discovered debonder). It was pretty easy to learn, other than of course figuring out what all of the functions do (still a few to learn - haven't figured out my fullhouse sailplane yet). I only fly electric and the build in battery telemetry without satellite modules or cost is the way to go. You can get Optima 6's in 3 packs for about $43 each, so much more affordable than Futaba. They have smaller Minimas now too, but no telemetry as I understand it. The Optima 6 Lite has telemetry, but no 3 packs. Spektrum seems OK and they have telemetry; I would get the new DX7 if I went that way given the supposed DX8 problems - but the Aurora supports 9 channels. I have an ultra-micro, and my solution there is to add the Spektrum module for the Futaba DM8 to the Aurora 9 - see some other forums on how to do that; I haven't wired that up yet though. The GPS is great on Hitec, but they are really falling behind without the iPhone app they had posted about last year but Spektrum has actually implemented. Some of their electric telemetry and accessories has been slow to get in stores too. My club mostly flys Spektrum or older non 2.4 systems but many are converting to electric and 2.4, but they do consider my radio to be pretty fancy (even if my flight skills aren't quite as good yet). They haven't switched, though, because they have too many DSM2 receivers already. I considered Airtronics too but like Futaba they had no telemetry. I have the Hitec voice announcer on order because looking down at the screen for telemetry can be dangerous - just use an alarm on the battery voltage to know when to land. I would look at a Futaba if I was very serious and started flying 12 channels, expensive models, or XFC-type stuff, but those are pricey.

Very helpful info. I think I'm going to risk it with the Turnigy 9x. I'm used to tinkering with stuff and so far none of the cheap Chinese off brand stuff I have bought requires any tinkering, it all works well, regardless of people's warnings. I'm sure eventually I'll get something that requires tinkering, but that goes with the territory. I just have to decide now what to get with it from Hobby King. Was thinking about getting an HK450 heli, but it's too big for the park. Then thought to get a HK250, but it's too small and twitchy to learn CP on. Not quite ready to get a glider yet. Argh! Gotta have a reason t get the radio.
