I just bought a 2014 Hyundai i30 and love his car so far. The torque is amazing and the engine is not as noisey as some reviews have stated. The response is impeccable and wow, the handling is better than all my previous autos. I have driven Honda Civic Si, Nissan Altima, Nissan Sentra, Acura RSX type S. This car is Quick and Nifty around sharp turns. Love the design, Very Roomy and I have the base model. Thanks for this review.

In Brief: Radio contest winner drives away in new car
Radio contest winner drives away in new car
Brittany DiPlacido is the winner of a brand-new car.
The 19-year-old spent 37 days living part time in one of two 2014 Chevrolet Sparks during radio station WEHP-FM/Happi 92.7's "Live In It to Win It" contest. Fellow contestant Charlie Goggins was disqualified Wednesday morning after he missed his shuttle to the contest.
"He tried getting there on time but he was too late," said Samm Adams, Happi's promotions director, adding that contestants were required to be on-site by 7:10 a.m. "He eventually did make it to the site and was very gracious and congratulated her."
DiPlacido and Goggins, 18, were the last of five contestants who agreed to spend their days in one of two subcompact cars for a chance to win one.
The cars have been parked at the Country Fair on the corner of West 12th Street and Peninsula Drive since May 27.

Rocky Anderson on Health Care
Justice Party challenger for President; former mayor of Salt Lake City
ANDERSON: Our employers in this country are at a huge competitive disadvantage with their competitors overseas, because we are the only nation in the entire developed world that doesn't provide insurance coverage for everyone, and we're paying more than twice the average of the rest of the industrialized world. And we're getting far worse medical outcomes. More than 70 percent of the American people and the majority of doctors during the healthcare debate said they wanted to see a single-payer, Medicare-for-all system in place. [Most] of the members in Congress caved in to the for-profit insurance industry and the pharmaceutical companies. And once again, we end up getting shafted, the American people, again. We can't stand for it anymore. We need to send a message: there are going to be political consequences every time the corporate sector wins out over the interests of the American people.
ANDERSON: The solution is to provide Medicare for everybody. To make it a single payer system. You look around the world--Canada, Taiwan--they have a single payer, basically, Medicare-for-all system. We are paying more than double the average of the rest of the industrialized world per-capita for health care costs. A large part of that is because we're relying upon the for-profit insurance industry to provide health care for most people. We need to get rid of that. We can control costs. We can make it affordable, provide better services, and we can do it for all. You just get the for-profit insurance companies out of the way, and all of the burdensome paperwork and the different billing systems and all the rest, that end up costing over a third of what we pay for what's supposed to go toward our medical care.
ANDERSON: We're talking here about ObamaCare and RomneyCare. I would call that "insurance companycare" because they're the ones who wrote it. They joined up with a very conservative foundation years ago to develop this plan, to make the American people buy this perverse product. We are the only country in the world that depends upon for-profit insurance companies for the majority of our coverage for health care, for those were lucky enough to have it.
STEIN: I live in the state of Massachusetts. So, I've seen RomneyCare or ObamaCare--take your pick--the Affordable Care Act actually in the flesh is neither affordable nor caring.

Millcreek seeks payments from more nonprofits
Millcreek Township government is trying come up with another source of revenue.
The township plans to determine if more nonprofits would be willing to make annual financial contributions to the township.
The township now gets a handful of contributions from nonprofits under what are called payment in lieu of taxes, or P.I.L.O.T., agreements.
But Supervisor Richard Figaski has been authorized by his colleagues to compile a list of nonprofits so the township can work toward reaching agreements with more of them.
"I'm not out to gouge anybody. I'm not out to fleece the nonprofits," Figaski said. "But we at least need to look at the nonprofit properties and see if there is a way to get something on a regular basis."
Figaski said he hopes township officials can sit down with the bigger nonprofits by this spring to see if they are "open to a P.I.L.O.T. agreement."
One of the biggest ones is the Millcreek Health System, whose properties in Millcreek include Millcreek Community Hospital, 5515 Peach St., the LECOM Medical Fitness & Wellness Center, 5401 Peach St., and Millcreek Manor nursing home, also at 5515 Peach St.
Construction of a new LECOM Senior Living Center in that same Peach Street area is proceeding, and it is expected to open in 2015. Millcreek Manor will close at that time.
The Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine, 1858 W. Grandview Blvd. in Erie, is also part of the Millcreek Health System.
In 2012, LECOM pledged $500,000 to Erie County government over five years, with the money going to improve local emergency services -- specifically laptop data terminals in emergency vehicles countywide -- and upgrade the computer lab at Blasco Library.
In exchange for the contribution, the Erie County Board of Tax Assessment Appeals agreed to drop a challenge to the tax-exempt status of Millcreek Manor. Also, Erie County government agreed not to challenge the tax-exempt status of any other Millcreek Health System property during the five years the agreement is in effect.
Figaski said the township is seeking the P.I.L.O.T. agreements so it does not find itself in situations where nonprofits, which pay no taxes, begin to monopolize properties in Millcreek, similar to what's happened in other municipalities. Figaski also said they should pay a fair share for receiving Millcreek services.

Skip to comments.THE METAPHOR OF THE BULB
Posted on 07/15/2011 6:28:05 AM PDT by shortstop
The light bulb is dead.
The incandescent bulb which has pushed back the night since an American named Thomas Edison invented it, will soon be no more. It was killed, like the innovation it symbolizes, by the federal government.
In one more demonstration of the we-know-better-than-you arrogance which has come to define Washington, the switch has been flipped on the light bulbs last chance at life.
In a vote earlier this week, 233 voted to keep the bulb and 193 voted to get rid of it, but in the new-math world of parliamentary procedure, the bulb still lost.
Actually, the bulb didnt lose anything.
It is an inanimate object, a thing we hold in our hands, a product we use in our homes.
The real loser is us.
And what weve lost is freedom.
In the steady chipping away of anything that resembles liberty, the all-powerful federal masters even dictate how we light our homes.
They tell us what light bulbs are legal, how much water can be in our toilet, how much ethanol must be in our gasoline, how many ounces can be in a paint can. They say, Jump and we say, How high?
The notion of the people controlling the government is forgotten, neither taught in classrooms nor understood in society. We are subjects, not citizens, the government is sovereign, not servile. And none of that is good.
It is like the taming of a wild horse.
It runs free, living as it will, until it is brought into a corral. Once habituated to being penned in, the cowboy lays a blanket over its back, which it at first kicks off, but ultimately accepts.
Then a touch, then a bridle, then a bit, then a saddle, then a spur.
And before you know it, step by step, in tiny increments, the once-free horse is waltzing around the arena like a Lipizzaner.
Thats about where we are.
We were given a country of liberty, and we have allowed it to be turned into a kingdom of bureaucrats and politicians. The government plans and often pays for our childrens meals. The government determines how many miles per gallon our cars must travel. The government rules and we obey.
And somehow, sometime we have to stop it.
Because somewhere in our future, by ballot or bullet, this will once again be a free country. History would suggest that there will first be a long and insufferable reign of oppression. But someday, in some American breast, there will burn again the passion for liberty, and the shackles will be thrown off.
Better that we avoid that reign of oppression by throwing it off now, by standing up to it and demanding that we be allowed to live our lives.
A micro-managing government is an oppressive government, regardless of the ostensible motive. Protecting us or the environment or the children or the economy or whatever else theyre protecting is not justification for enslaving us.
And government cannot protect you without enslaving you. It cannot protect you from the consequences of your choices without taking away you ability to make those choices.
And so we must wear seat belts and motorcycle helmets and ban transfats and cell phones in cars. Fries cant have too much salt and cigarettes must carry pictures of cancers and people who buy guns must show picture ID and wait five days. We have to buy insurance and we can't buy fireworks and from zoning rules to city ordinances to state and federal laws, the government seems to see its primary function as putting its boot on our necks.
But you can't succeed unless you can also fail, and you can't be free unless you are left to face the consequences of your freedom. The government needs to learn that, and so do we.
We need to stop being complicit in our own enslavement. We must stop expecting the government to meet our every need and kiss our every booboo. We must accept personal responsibility for our wellbeing and support. We must realize that life isn't fair, we don't all make the same amount of money, the storms do rage and the earth does quake, and that we can't take a government handout without accepting a government restraint.
This country wasn't formed to make us safe, it was formed to make us free. The purpose of government is not to oversee our lives, it is to safeguard our liberties.
Both we and the government must learn its place.
And it must learnt to keep its nose out of our business.
Remember back when Bork said"we have half our constitution left"?
Now with these bastards we have 10% left, time is coming fast, to hit the reset button.
Speak for yourself. We say "f-ck you." and they do it anyway.
This also serves of an example of how business/gov't collude.
G&E and Phillips actually don't support repealing the ban because they have already shifted their manufacturing.
You see, they were large enough businesses to handle this kind of retooling. That results in "little gys" going out of business.
This kind of regulation not only serves to oppress us, but to ensure the market share of big players at the expense of the smaller ones.
I'm inclined to agree with the many emails my former pastor sent me before the 2010 election.
Vote them ALL out and start with entirely new Conservative candidates. Thank you to the good ones, you'll get a very nice pension, but perhaps we need to start clean.
Good one from Bob Lonsberry. Thanks for posting.
Yes, we need to protect the little guys.
I think medium and especially small business is good for America in almost every way. you have watch out for the mega-monsters like GE. They seem to be the type that give money to the Dems and support bad ideas like the AGW scam.
Think about this: If "we" couldn't even repeal this stupid light bulb law, how the hell will we ever be able to get rid of Obamacare? We won't, that's how.
Here's a great article on this type of regulation from American Thinker
"The Soft Dictatorship"
Couple of days ago with the temp in the HIGH 90's my air-conditioner burped, coughed twice and gave it all up. Time for a new one. Saw exactly what I needed, capacity wise and physical size wise. Oh, Oh...it was a GE(!!!)
Bought same physical/capacity of another make.
Personally I've demoted GENERAL Electric down to PRIVATE Electric. Held my own courtmartial.
Ballot box, we try and try, but keep getting the same results, meaning none....CHECK
Bullet box, we are way too civilized to actually fight to the death to defend our own wives and children from pedophiles, how are we supposed to do so from an amorphous enemy like govt? "We the people" clearly do not have the guts .......FAIL.
There may be some wackos out there that have the insanity within them to commit murder in the name of some cause, but to band together and DEMAND that the govt get back within its constraints, or be prepared to be forcibly restrained.....give me a break. We only need 25% or so, but everyone is too busy making money, paying bills, and watching sports.
OUR LIVES, OUR FORTUNES, and OUR SACRED HONOR, will not be pledged. Heck, people will not even risk jail by refusing to fund this "beast" by withholding taxes. That should be the very first step. Everyone is too afraid to even put their name to such a tactic. How else can you defeat an enemy, if not first taking away their treasure?
Shame on the Rats who made this either filibuster or non-override of Obama possible. Shame on them. And I say that as a personal aficionado of the fluorescent bulb. The other day, in a home improvement store with a scanty, at best, complement of 100 watt bulbs, they actually had Edison bulb replicas which delivers the lighting equivalent of a night light bulb with 60 watts (but it looks oh so cool and atmospheric). Why is Congress not bent out of shape over "blasphemies" like this?
I went to the White House web-site and went room by room. The place is filled with chandeliers and NONE of them have the curly cue light bulbs that the rest of us must be using soon.
In some cases, the only thing GE gets is a few pennies' royalty for the usage of its name. The actual item is built by some other mass market commodity house.
With the O-bomb-economy, they seem to be doing a fair job of taking their own treasure away.
And I bet the reason is that every single one of those chandeliers is on a dimmer. Dimmer-capable curlies exist, but they do not track well to one another.
And let's not forget that the imperial government is also mandating increased miles per gallon ratings on cars that happen to be using fuel with fewer BTU per gallon, another case of the government mandating things that it knows nothing about, part of the beauty of centralized management that is the goal of socialists and communists world wide.
Edison didn't invent the light bulb.
The light bulb issue is an apt metaphor. The left dominates the political and cultural spheres and by doing so, controls us, subtly yet quite effectively. We could all make a long list of the restrictions, rules and laws that invade our lives. I'm not a libertarian and realize that laws and rules are necessary in a civilized society but it's painfully obvious that the government has long since passed the stage of simply exercising it's just power in a reasonable way. It has become oppressive. We now have a huge portion of the American public receiving their income, or part of it, from 'the government'. These folks will ensure that Democrat politicians are rewarded for their largess with the votes of the dependent. The power of the left will continue to grow, albeit, in spurts. Democrat politicians will continue to enlarge their control over the population with more laws, rules and regulations that encroach on our personal freedom.
I regret to state that many Americans will shrug and say "big deal" to the fact that incandescent light bulbs are being removed from the marketplace by government edict. This is how it happens. This is how we lose our freedom. Piece by piece, bit by bit. 'Creeping normalcy'. Suffice it to say, this will not end well.
When life hands you lemons, make lemonade!
Time to start training for the EPA style cleanups that will be required every time someone breaks one of the things...a nice little cottage industry.
I read that Texas will make their own incandescent bulbs for sale within their state and get around the federal ban.
Other states may do the same. Seems that if enough states do it, then maybe the federal ban will be repealed.
Very well said sir!
"I read that Texas will make their own incandescent bulbs for sale within their state and get around the federal ban."
South Carolina has also passed an incandescent lightbulb manufacturing law.
Exactly right. Big business offers bribes (uhmm, cough...PAC and/or campaign contributions) and the politicians do their bidding.
HeeHee! Private Electric.
I'll remember that one
FYI, if hopefully you are saving up your 100W bulbs, be certain to check the box for "Lumens". A standard 100W should have about 1500+ Lumens, but many are now being sold with as little as 900 Lumens, which is about the brightness of a 60W bulb.
Not knowing this, many people are trying to stock up on bulbs that are useless for what they want them to do.
Yes,shifted manufacturing to mercury laden CFL. Then, 20 years down the road they will rake fortune by charging for soil cleanup from mercury contamination.
I was helping some folks with a home repair last week and when we had to move things about in a downstairs room I found 8 shopping bags full of 60, 75 and 100 watt incandescent bulbs. She told me they've been hoarding for about a year.

Phelps tested free speech with anti-gay protests
TOPEKA, Kan. -- Fred Phelps did not care what you thought of his Westboro Baptist Church, nor did he care if you heard its message that society's tolerance for gay people is the root of all earthly evil.
Phelps died late Wednesday at age 84.
God is love? Heresy, he preached, and derisively insisted the Lord had nothing but anger and bile for the moral miscreants of his creation. In Phelps' reading of the Bible, God determined your fate at the moment of your creation.
Phelps reserved special scorn for conservative ministers who preached that homosexuality was a sin but that God loved gays and lesbians. When the Rev. Jerry Falwell died in 2007, Westboro members protested at his funeral.

Internet Use Among African American College Students: Psychosocial Correlates of the Digital Divide
Date: August 2004
Creator: Harvey, Pejcharat Jane
Description: An exploratory study was conducted examining Internet usage among African-American college students. The study examined both psychosocial correlates, including technological anxiety and racial identity as well as socioeconomic measures, as they impacted Internet usage. Additionally, three distinct measures of Internet usage, thin access, thick access and the Internet Connectedness Index (ICI), were used as criterion variables in three separate multiple regression analysis (MRA) models. The results of the study found differences in predictive validity based on the criterion variable used, with the ICI accounting for the greatest amount of variance (54%). Racial identity, in terms of internal beliefs and feelings about being African American and internalization of Afrocentric values in a political context were found to be predictive of Internet usage as measured by the ICI.

The Effects of Web-Based Learning Versus Traditional Instructor-Based Learning on Student Knowledge and Satisfaction Based on Student Learning Styles
Date: December 2001
Creator: Manochehri, Naser
Description: The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of Web-based learning (WBL) versus those of traditional instructor-based learning (IBL) on student knowledge and satisfaction based on student learning styles. Other goals were to determine if WBL is more effective for those with a particular learning style. The study examined a sample of undergraduate students who were enrolled in the college algebra offered as both oncampus instructor-based (traditional) and Web-based at the university of North Texas (UNT). A total of 36 Web-based students and 58 instructor-based students participated in this study. This study utilized a posttest-only intact group. The Kolb Learning Style Inventory (LSI) measured the learning styles of students. This study used learning methods (Web-based learning (WBL), instructor-based learning (IBL)), and learning styles (Diverger, Converger, Assimilator, and Accommodator) as independent variables. Student knowledge and student satisfaction was measured at the end of the course as independent variables. Based upon the results of the LSI, post-learning exam, and satisfaction a series of two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA 4x2) techniques and independent variable tests was used for each of the dependent variables, knowledge and satisfaction, based on a student's learning styles. The results revealed that students' learning styles were statistically ...

Faculty Use of the World Wide Web: Modeling Information Seeking Behavior in a Digital Environment
Date: December 2000
Creator: Fortin, Maurice G.
Description: There has been a long history of studying library users and their information seeking behaviors and activities. Researchers developed models to better understand these information seeking behaviors and activities of users. Most of these models were developed before the onset of the Internet. This research project studied faculty members' use of and their information seeking behaviors and activities on the Internet at Angelo State University, a Master's I institution. Using both a quantitative and qualitative methodology, differences were found between tenured and tenure-track faculty members on the perceived value of the Internet to meet their research and classroom information needs. Similar differences were also found among faculty members in the broad discipline areas of the humanities, social sciences, and sciences. Tenure-track faculty members reported a higher average Internet use per week than tenured faculty members. Based on in-depth, semi-structured interviews with seven tenured and seven tenure-track faculty members, an Internet Information Seeking Activities Model was developed to describe the information seeking activities on the Internet by faculty members at Angelo State University. The model consisted of four basic stages of activities: "Gathering," "Validating," "Linking" with a sub-stage of "Re-validating," and "Monitoring." There were two parallel stages included in the model. ...

Late in playwright Jon Marans' "The Temperamentals," the lead character addresses the audience, challenging the notion that the gay liberation movement began with those now-legendary 1969 riots outside a Greenwich Village bar.
"Before Stonewall," gay activist Harry Hay (Mark R. Neufang) tells us, "an even braver bunch of us stood up to the plate — before there even was a plate!" Led by Hay and his lover in Los Angeles, these brave pioneers called themselves the Mattachine Society. »Read Full Article

Buy or DIY: Mad for Macramé
Skinny Laminx. We personally think that would look spectacular using neon rope or twine. Macramé doesn't just have to be for holding up a plant or two. In the post "Nice Knots: Macramé Made Modern" you see it used in furniture and accessories. In "Modern Macramé", we see Sally England use it in a modern way with room dividers, wall hangings and headboards. We also love Tamara Maynes' Macramé Owls.

On Thursday, the Department of Defense announced it has awarded Rolls-Royce Corp a $83.7 million "modification" to a firm-fixed-price contact previously awarded to the company (for $150.9 million) in March of 2012 .
The contracts in question, both the original March contract and the current one, procure from Rolls-Royce V-22 AE1107C turboshaft engines used to power V-22 Osprey tiltrotor aircraft operated by the U.S. Navy and U.S. Air Force.
In the previous contract, the order was for 232 engines for the Navy, and 33 additional engines for the USAF. Yesterday's modification adds 34 engines to the Navy's order (266 in all), and four to the Air Force's (now 37).
Work on the engines covered by the new modification is to be completed in December 2014; however, the original contract stated that it would not be completed until October 2017. Thus, the possibility of additional modifications -- and additional sales for Rolls-Royce -- in future years would appear to remain open.

Why would you want to change the max level to 9999?
<_< If your -really- feel the need to raise the level cap past 99 or 100 or so, theres a pretty good chance your doing something wrong.
Slow down, buddy! Just because people can read it doesnt mean it isnt crap! - Kailat777
Well , after I play Disgaea (Game Maximum LV is 9999) so I would like to have that digit, that all ^^a
so Can I change it?
Currently Playing: Makai Senki Disgaea (PSP)
Wait For: Mana Khemia Portable+ (JP), Ar tonelico 2 (US)
Honestly? I don't think the game engine has the precision to store the amount of experience that you would need to get to level 9999, but if you're adamant about trying, you'll need to find or write a script for it.
But to be completely honest, that only works for NIS because it's 'their thing', because it's never necessary to be anywhere near level 9999 to beat the game (in fact, 100 or lower will generally suffice), and because the really challenging yet conveniently set up places allow you to get a few hundred levels at a time, and I'm not so sure the game engine can handle that either.

Heresy Kailit. STOP DISCOURAGING PEOPLE FROM RIPPING "GOOD" IDEAS FROM OTHER GAMES!!!
Slow down, buddy! Just because people can read it doesnt mean it isnt crap! - Kailat777
Surely it is possible.
The engine will have no problem at all maintain the experience as Fixnums will automatically be extended into Bignums (and vice-versa). This means that while there is a limit there are no practical limit. You would be unable to display all the digits on the screen before having problems.
The problem is more that the display is not made for 4 digits levels and that the editor has a fixed limit of 99 levels.
The exp curve is based on a formula making it easy to extend to 9999 levels.
The problem resides more in the actor parameters (MaxHP, MaxSP, STR, DEX, AGI, INT)
They are specified exactly and therefore not generated by a formula.
Either you have to create formulas yourself or you have to specify the exact values for the levels 100-9999 for each of the parameters of each of the actors able to be level 9999. (Which is all in Disgaea)
In short: It is possible, but there is a lot of practical work in it
Religion is opium for the people - Karl Marx
I'm assuming that "Bignum" is slang for floating point, but it made me laugh anyway. If Mr. Reaper is, in fact, correct, then as long as you aren't extremely overzealous with your experience totals then you should be fine, but you'll have to rely much more on scripting than most people.
Also, I decided against the "Don't call me Shirley" joke. You really should thank me for that.
Bignum is not at all a slang for floating point.
A bignum is still an integer. Here is what the help file tell you about bignums:
The class for long integers, limited only by memory size. The result of an operation is automatically converted into a Fixnum if its value is within range; conversely, if the value is out of Fixnum range, it is extended into a Bignum. For bit operations, Bignum can be considered to be an infinite 2's complement bit string. Negative numbers in particular can operate as a string of 1 bits extending indefinitely to the left. Mixing Bignum with Float can result in digit cancellation errors upon conversion.
Like Fixnum its superclass is Integer.

ROME (AP) - Italians are voting for a second day on Monday in a national election that will determine if they are prepared to stay the course of painful economic reform or send a message of discontinuity to the political class that led the eurozone's third-largest country to the brink of disaster by rallying around a protest party.
Polls close at 3pm local time (10.00pm on Monday, Singapore time), ending two days of voting in an election being closely watched by Italy's eurozone partners as well as international investors trying to decide if they consider the third-largest economy in the Eurozone a good bet.
Turnout was 55 per cent when polls closed for the day on Sunday night, 7 percentage points below turnout rate in the last national election in 2008. Experts say a low turnout will hurt the mainstream parties; usually around 80 per cent of the 50 million eligible voters go to the polls.
Leading the electoral field is Mr Pier Luigi Bersani, a former communist who drafted liberalisation reforms under previous centre-left governments and supported tough measures pushed by incumbent Premier Mario Monti.
Mr Silvio Berlusconi, who was forced from office in Nov 2011 by the debt crisis, has sought to close the gap by promising constituents to restore an unpopular tax - a tactic that brought him within a hair's breadth of winning the 2006 election.
Mr Monti, respected abroad for his measures that helped stave off Italy's debt crisis, has widely been blamed for financial suffering caused by austerity cuts and was trailing in fourth place.
The great unknown is comic-turned-political agitator Beppe Grillo, whose protest movement against the entrenched political class has gained in strength following a series of corporate scandals that only seemed to confirm the worst about Italy's establishment.
If his self-styled political "tsunami," which was polling third, sweeps into Parliament with a big chunk of seats, Italy could be in store for a prolonged period of political confusion that would spook the markets.
Mr Bersani's lead in opinion polls, around 33 per cent to Mr Berlusconi's 26, before a blackout on voter sentiment took effect 15 days ago would give him enough to control the lower house, thanks to a widely contested electoral law that awards a premium to the leading party.
But it will be more difficult for him to gain control also of the Senate, which is decided by regional votes with Lombardy, the nation's wealthiest state and long-time Mr Berlusconi stronghold, playing a critical role.
Most analysts believe Mr Bersani would seek an alliance with centre-right Mr Monti to secure a stable government, assuming parties gathered under Mr Monti's centrist banner gain enough votes. While left-leaning Mr Bersani has found much in common with Mr Monti, much of his party's base is considerably further to the left and could rebel.

+Alex B., the biggest display wall I know of is HIPerSpace (http://bit.ly/cyELZq), which is 14 wide by 5 high, totaling 70 displays. If there's any way I can go larger than that, I absolutely will.
Rick WagnerProjects -
Photos from building the Raspberry Pi cluster rack that will drive the SDSC Sandbox tiled display wall. It was a great time working with my son on the project.
14 comments
+Alex B., while the Raspberry Pis could do a decent job of rendering a virtual display space, we're trying something different. I think the combination of a tiled display wall and a Raspberry Pi cluster make for the perfect combination of how to teach distributed computing and parallel programming. That's why we laid out the Pis to match the displays: there's something visceral about seeing the cluster that's controlling the LCD panels. This is the opposite of most tiled display walls, where the computers are hidden away. One of the students wrote up their work creating a distributed Pong (http://bit.ly/101akuK), which is the first working application. We're bundling these into lesson plans for middle and high school students.
+Amirul Iman , it's red fluorescent acrylic. I bought a 1/4" x 24" x 48" sheet, and one of the student created a CAD file for the CNC laser cutter in #ucsd 's engineering school. You can buy the acrylic online from US Plastic: http://bit.ly/19flBdW.
Erik Bixby
+Rick Wagner is there information on what's being done on the software side, Xorg config, etc., posted somewhere?
+Erik Bixby, I'm in the middle of writing up a longer description of the. But for now, the Xorg settings come straight from raspi-config, and the IP addresses are fixed. I post a link to the write up in these comments and to the community when I'm done.
+Rick Wagner Please post the list of tools, apps involved in the project to read a little and try one for myself (cause I dont have a son to share jet).
We have a blog with some more infromation on the project(Rick how have you not plugged this yet) with a git hub that isn't quite up to date at the moment. http://sdsc-sandbox.blogspot.com/
+ET Parreira, I've posted links to the blog and your post about Parallel Pong. I think what folks are looking for is the additional configurations, like what we did today with the NFS server on the management Pi, home directories, etc.
+Mohan Baro, there are unpolished, but working code samples on our +GitHub repo (https://github.com/sdsc) for both pong an the joysticks. You can also read a description on our blog (http://bit.ly/101akuK).
