Making money while you sleep.
Has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?
After reading books like Rich Dad Poor Dad and 4 Hour Work Week, I became
interested obsessed with making passive income.
Whenever someone needs additional income, the stereotypical suggestion offered is to "get a part-time job."
But what if you don't have the time or energy to put in all those extra hours?
I know I didn't. Plus that wasn't as appealing as making money while I was trading time for money.
For that, you may need some passive income ideas – ways to make money with little investment of time and effort on your part. And a great benefit to this is if you are trying to pay off debt quickly, this is a huge help to that!
Here's a list of quite a few passive income ideas, so it's likely that you'll be able to find at least two or three that will work in your situation.

Kung Fu Stegosaur
|For Immediate Release

GSA Release No. 14-77

Boulder, CO, USA — Stegosaurs might be portrayed as lumbering plant eaters, but they were lethal fighters when necessary, according to paleontologists who have uncovered new evidence of a casualty of stegosaurian combat. The evidence is a fatal stab wound in the pubis bone of a predatory allosaur. The wound – in the conical shape of a stegosaur tail spike – would have required great dexterity to inflict and shows clear signs of having cut short the allosaur's life.
"A massive infection ate away a baseball-sized sector of the bone," reports Houston Museum of Natural Science paleontologist Robert Bakker and his colleagues, who present a poster on the discovery on Tuesday at the meeting of the Geological Society of America in Vancouver, B.C. "Probably this infection spread upwards into the soft tissue attached here, the thigh muscles and adjacent intestines and reproductive organs." The lack of any signs of healing strongly suggests the allosaur died from the infection.
Similar wounds are seen in rodeo cowboys or horses when they are gored by longhorns, Bakker said. And since large herbivores – like longhorn cattle, rhinos and buffalo – today defend themselves with horns, it's reasonable to assume spiky herbivorous dinos did the same. A big difference is that stegosaurs wielded their weapon on their tails rather than their heads. Skeletal evidence from fossil stegosaurs suggests their tails were more dextrous than most dinosaur tails.
"They have no locking joints, even in the tail," Bakker explained. "Most dinosaur tails get stiffer towards the end." But stegosaurs had massive muscles at the base of the tails, flexibility and fine muscle control all the way to the tail tip. "The joints of a stegosaur tail look like a monkey's tail. They were built for 3-dimensional combat."
In order to deliver the mortal wound to the allosaur, a stegosaur would have had to sweep its tail under the allosaur and twist the tail tip, because normally the spikes point outward and backward. That would have been well within the ability of a stegosaur, Bakker said.
The fighting style and skill of stegosaurs should come as no surprise to anyone familiar with the dinosaur battle scene in the 1940 Disney animated film Fantasia, said Bakker. That segment of the movie shows a beefed up allosaur attacking a stegosaur. The stegosaur delivers a number of well aimed tail blows at the predator, but loses the fight. The Fantasia stegosaur tail dexterity appears to be accurate, he said. But he questions the stegosaur's loss in the end. "I think the stegosaur threw the fight," he said. On the other hand, he points out stegosaurs had among the smallest brains for its body size of any large animal, ever.

Brendan's Peep Show - ChaosMen
Brendan submitted his application online, and when I saw he was nearby, I knew we could easily setup a peep video.
I like having Ransom go by and set up the cameras and just let them do what they want. Occasionally the accidentally turn off the camera while man-handling it, so Ransom hovers nearby to make sure everything is going smoothly.
Brendan LOVED jerking for us, and even showed off his ass for us. Clearly the guy likes anal action, and boy does he shoot some distance. I am certain his black futon will be hard to clean up!

OROFINO, Idaho (AP) The newest member of the medical staff at Clearwater Valley Hospital here looks like a giant silver floor polisher with a flat-screen head.
It's not a housecleaning appliance, though. This device is a robot that is helping doctors and nurses in this small, rural hospital, and at St. Mary's Hospital in Cottonwood, expand their access to big-city medicine.
The 5-foot-2-inch robot which, as yet, has no name connects primary care doctors with psychiatrists and other specialists at Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center in Boise. It also allows nurses, while they treat patients or assist in the operating room, to be critiqued and guided by experts at the larger hospital.
Rural setting
Casey Meza, chief executive officer of Clearwater and St. Mary's hospitals, said the robot is opening a new realm of medical services that wouldn't be available otherwise.
"In a rural setting, flesh and blood just doesn't exist," Meza said of the dearth of specialists available to small hospitals. "We don't have psychiatrists we certainly don't have child psychiatrists; we don't have neonato- logists, we don't have neurologists. We have wonderful primary care providers who do a wonderful job, but they need specialty support and this is a way for them to get specialty support."
The robot is manufactured by InTouch Technologies of Santa Barbara, Calif. It is a wireless, mobile device that uses secure Internet technology to link physicians and others to people at a control station in a different location.
Using a laptop computer at their offices, doctors, through the robot, can discuss a patient's status with nurses or others, drive into the patient's room, observe patient behavior, check bedside monitors and ventilator settings, discuss care with the patient or family members and give directions to care providers and talk about next steps.
The robot can be stationed in the operating room during a procedure and allow the nurses to take instructions or discuss their activity with a trainer at a control station hundreds of miles away. It also allows local nurses to be present in the operating room of a bigger hospital during a surgery.
"It's almost like a back seat driver in the emergency room," Meza said. "It's another voice in the room of knowledge that can step in at a critical moment and give support. From a psychiatric position this is the greatest thing that has ever happened to either of our hospitals. We now have weekly child and adult psychiatric services that we didn't have before."
The robot came about as the result of a $1 million U.S. Department of Defense grant and a $100,000 grant from the St. Alphonsus Foundation. It and seven other models scattered around southern Idaho and eastern Oregon are part of an outreach effort by St. Alphonsus hospital to provide services to remote areas, said Michael J. Ward, executive director of St. Al's corporate network development.
"The whole thing for us is, we want to get specialty care out across rural hospitals in Idaho and Oregon," Ward said.
Although there is no direct financial benefit to the hospital, Ward said it is committed to the program for the long term.
"One, it's the right thing to do. But it's also building a relationship because there are multiple tertiary hospitals where, when they have to transfer patients (they can go).
"We figure if we're building a relationship, supporting them with our specialists; they can stay in the community and if they need to transfer for continued care they come to our hospital."
Ward said as long as the three-year grant holds, there is no charge to patients or the hospitals for use of the robots. In the future there may be a maintenance charge.
And while other hospitals in the network may transfer patients to St. Al's if the need arises, that's not likely to happen with the Orofino or Cottonwood hospitals.
That's because most patients prefer going to Lewiston or Spokane if they need additional care, Meza said.
Ward and Meza insist St. Al's motivation is strictly altruistic in the interest of giving smaller hospitals the resources they otherwise would not have.
The main reason Meza got involved with the program came as a result of her service on the five-county, north-central Idaho Region 2 mental health board, where she became acquainted with St. Al's staff. Both hospitals were interested in the acute problem of a lack of psychiatric services in this area. Ward pointed out that Idaho ranks 50th out of the 50 states for the availability of psychiatric services.
"There are psychiatrists in Lewiston," Meza said. "But they are doing all they possibly can do to serve the region's needs. We've tapped Lewiston out. That's not to say we don't still transfer to St. Joe's (St. Joseph Regional Medical Center in Lewiston) and use their specialty care and psychiatric care. We most certainly do, but over and above what they can support us, that's where this comes in."
It's not uncommon for a doctor to be treating a patient for a physical ailment, who also has depression or some other mental health problem.
"Our family practice docs are great at managing and maintaining, but oftentimes these patients just have that higher level of need that a doctor just needs a specialist to step in once in awhile and assess the situation and give another thought process to it," she said.
Both Meza and Ward believe the added resources the robots provide can help small, rural hospitals attract primary care physicians in the future.
"I think it will help recruit primary care physicians because they think: 'We can't be out here if we don't have any backup or any support.'" Ward said. "They've been out here trying to be everything for everyone for a long time and felt very alone."
Patients who are being evaluated with the robot's assistance are made aware of the technology and must sign a consent form, Meza said. So far it has not been an obstacle in patients' comfort levels during the treatment process.
"I've talked to a few patients and they were receptive," said Deb Tylzynski, one of the registered nurses who is training with the robot. "We haven't had any problems so far. The patients are curious about it (but I think) this is a positive for medicine."
Marvin Cook, another of the registered nurses in the training program, said it was a little hard to get used to the robot at first. But after a short time the nurses adjusted and now they appreciate being able to get instruction from outside experts while still working in their own hospital.
Bryan Skinner and Drew Johnson are the information technology specialists at Clearwater and St. Mary's hospitals who deal with the robot. It is easy to use and relatively maintenance free, the two say.
Skinner said the hospitals already had a strong internal wireless network, which allowed them to adapt the robot to their systems.
Meza is optimistic the program will have ongoing benefits for patients while helping rural hospitals remain viable and competitive for the future.
"The beauty of this system is, it's obvious there's a critical need throughout the state of Idaho throughout the country for psychiatric services. And getting mental health (care) close to home is incredibly important when patients need the support of their families.
"Just because you live in a small town doesn't mean you don't deserve high-quality medicine," Meza said. "And high quality means access to various services."

Long before I worked in Jazz, I was a fan of Jazz. I lived in New Jersey, just outside of Manhattan, and WBGO was my window into a world of music beyond the 3-minute pop song. DJs like Michael Bourne and Gary Walker introduced me to music that was daring, beautiful, different and fun. They're still there, along with a stable of thoughtful DJs that's as good as you'll find on radio. For the past 20 years, I've have the honor of working in the Jazz arena. We've worked with WBGO on a variety of joint projects, and you know what? The professionals managing the station are just as good as the folks behind the microphones. In our partnerships with WBGO, I've found that they set the bar high, then proceed to deliver well above it. For example, we recently worked with the station on its annual Champions Of Jazz Gala. We thought it would be a terrific evening for our staff and clients, considering it was WBGO's 30th anniversary and DownBeat's 75th. Terrific was an understatement. The program, from start to finish, was a complete success. Every detail was handled beautifully. And as a result, WBGO, DownBeat and, especially, jazz all received an unforgettable evening. Several years earlier, we worked together on a feature on the great pianist Dave Brubeck. Michael Bourne did the interview. It ran as a cover story in DownBeat and as a radio interview on WBGO. Each of our interviews promoted the other, which created a terrific platform to propel the work and legacy of one of our greatest jazz artists. Each example required a great deal of communication and teamwork from our organizations, or we stood to fail miserably. It was never a concern with a partner like WBGO. The station does amazing work in the jazz community. We're proud whenever we have an opportunity to work with the staff of WBGO to promote this great music called Jazz.

MSc Chemical Process Research and Development
This course aims to provide students from a Chemistry, Chemical Engineering or related science and engineering background, with an advanced knowledge of chemical process research and development.
The course is centred in the Institute of Process Research and Development (iPRD), a key interdisciplinary institute, which links the School of Chemistry and School of Chemical and Process Engineering at the University of Leeds.
In keeping with iPRD's emphasis, the entire course is industrially relevant, and much of it is industrially led, including extensive use of seminars and workshops by industrial speakers.
A major part of the MSc course is an extensive research project which will normally be jointly supervised by a chemist and a chemical engineer. Many research projects are industrially sponsored and some can be carried out in industrial laboratories when advantageous to do so.
The excellent facilities, which include recently commissioned large scale 20 and 50 litre reaction systems and the range of expertise at Leeds means that students will be able to contribute to research at the cutting edge of process technology, in industrially relevant areas, in some cases, with significant industrial involvement.
Course Description
Core material will cover key techniques and methodology used in process technology, and will be reinforced through deductive problem solving, and student led activities (e.g. interdisciplinary design project involving small group working between chemists and chemical engineers).
This approach will enable students to exploit their diverse range of skills, to appreciate the opportunities and limitations of current process technology, and to be prepared for the necessarily inquisitive nature of research.
Throughout the course extensive exposure to industrial concepts, and input from external industrial speakers, will exemplify the importance and practical applications of the field.
The initial project report that you produce will require you to appreciate the background to a research problem, to formulate ideas, to propose a programme of research, and to propose the approach best suited to the underlying research problem. The work will be conducted in the vigorous interdisciplinary research atmosphere fostered by the range of process technology research being carried out in Leeds, and will be written up in an extensive high level report, and presented orally in an internal research conference at the end of the year.
Course Structure
All students study core material, beginning with an initial introduction to Process Chemistry and Chemical Technology, and then divide into three streams, depending on background, to cover chemistry and chemical engineering at a range of levels.
All students then study advanced core modules, which lead on to an extensive research project.
The modular nature of the course allows students from differing backgrounds to tailor the course to their own needs, allowing those with a knowledge of chemistry to focus on more advanced chemical aspects of process development and develop a strong appreciation of chemical engineering principles, whilst students with a background in chemical engineering can concentrate on advanced engineering aspects and develop a strong appreciation of chemistry.
Students from more diverse backgrounds (e.g. pharmacy, forensic science, materials science, physics, biochemistry) will have the opportunity to study broader aspects of both chemistry and chemical engineering but would not be expected to study at the advanced levels of students with specialist chemistry or chemical engineering knowledge.
Teaching is by lectures, practical classes, tutorials, seminars and supervised research projects. Extensive use is made of IT and a wide range of materials is available to enable students to study at their own pace and in their own time to enhance and extend the material taught formally.
Assessment is based on course work, research project performance and written exams which take place at the end of the semester in which the module is taught.
Career Options
The industrial focus of the course and the shortage of suitably qualified postgraduate students, with experience at the chemical - chemical engineering interface, ensures excellent career prospects for successful graduates and also provides a good route for progression onto further postgraduate study at PhD level.
Career opportunities can be found in research, technical support and production management roles, within the chemical manufacturing industry, in particular fine chemicals, dyestuffs, agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals. The course also provides a good route for progression onto further postgraduate study at PhD level.
The School of Chemistry offers up to 10 partial-fee Dean's International Excellence Scholarships worth £3,000 each. These awards are open to international candidates who have been accepted for admission on this full-time MSc programme, and who are eligible to pay tuition fees at the full international rate.

Pinus halepensis
Pinus halepensis, commonly known as the Aleppo pine, is a pine native to the Mediterranean region. Its range extends from Morocco and Spain north to southern France, Italy, and Croatia, and east to Greece, all over Malta and northern Tunisia, with an outlying population (from which it was first described) in Syria, Lebanon, southern Turkey, Jordan, Israel, and Palestinian territories. In Israel, it is called Jerusalem pine.
Pinus halepensis, the Aleppo pine, is generally found at low altitudes, mostly from sea level to 200 m (660 ft), but can grow up to 1,000 m (3,300 ft) in southern Spain, well over 1,200 m (3,900 ft) on Crete, and up to 1,700 m (5,600 ft) in the south, in Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia.[2][3]
P. halepensis is a small to medium-sized tree, 15–25 m (49–82 ft) tall, with a trunk diameter up to 60 cm (24 in), exceptionally up to 1 m (3 ft 3 in). The bark is orange-red, thick, and deeply fissured at the base of the trunk, and thin and flaky in the upper crown. The leaves ("needles") are very slender, 6–12 cm (2.4–4.7 in) long, distinctly yellowish green, and produced in pairs (rarely a few in threes). The cones are narrow conic, 5–12 cm (2.0–4.7 in) long and 2–3 cm (0.79–1.18 in) broad at the base when closed, green at first, ripening glossy red-brown when 24 months old. They open slowly over the next few years, a process quickened if they are exposed to heat such as in forest fires. The cones open 5–8 cm (2.0–3.1 in) wide to allow the seeds to disperse. The seeds are 5–6 mm (0.20–0.24 in) long, with a 20-mm wing, and are wind-dispersed.[2][3][4]
Related species[edit]
The Aleppo pine is closely related to the Turkish pine, Canary Island pine, and maritime pine, which all share many of its characteristics. Some authors include the Turkish pine as a subspecies of the Aleppo pine, as Pinus halepensis subsp. brutia (Ten.) Holmboe,[5] but it is usually regarded as a distinct species.[2][3][4][6] It is a relatively nonvariable species, in that its morphological characteristics stay constant over the entire range.[2]
The resin of the Aleppo pine is used to flavor the Greek wine retsina.
From the pine nuts of the Aleppo pine is made a pudding called asidet zgougou in the Tunisian dialect; it is served in bowls, covered with cream, and topped with almonds and small candies.
In its native area, P. halepensis is widely planted for its fine timber, making it one of the most important forestry trees in Algeria and Morocco.[4] In Israel, the Aleppo pine, along with Pinus brutia, has been planted extensively by the JNF. It proved very successful in Yatir Forest in the northern Negev (on the edge of the desert), where foresters had not expected it to survive. Many Aleppo pine forests exist today in Israel and are used for recreational purposes. Although it is a local species, the replacement of natural oak Maquis shrubland and garrigue with tall stands of pine has created "ecological deserts" and has significantly changed the species assemblage of these regions.[7] In Israel natural patches of Aleppo pine forests can be found in the Carmel and Galilee regions.[8] The species produces timber which is valued for its hardness, density and unproblematic seasoning. Seasoned timber is inclined to tear out with planing, but this can be avoided by using sharp blades or adjusting the sharpening angle of tools.[9]
The Aleppo pine is considered an invasive species though useful in South Africa; in South Australia, a control program is in place on Eyre Peninsula.
P. halepensis is a popular ornamental tree, extensively planted in gardens, parks, and private and agency landscapes in hot dry areas such as Southern California, where the Aleppo pine's considerable heat and drought tolerance, fast growth, and aesthetic qualities, are highly valued.
Cultural references
Paul Cézanne had an Aleppo pine in his garden at Aix-en-Provence; this tree was the inspiration and model for his painting, The Big Trees. As of 2005, the tree is still growing in Cézanne's garden.[10]

A new fork of Oracle's Open Office open source office suite that was first released in September 2010 by The Document Foundation. LibreOffice has started to branch away from its Open Office (or OpenOffice.org) roots in several ways, including a reduced reliance on Java and the inclusion of an improved Windows installer.
LibreOffice's name is a combination of the French word for free ("Libre") and Office. Like OpenOffice.org, LibreOffice features a word processor (Writer), a spreadsheet app (Calc), a presentation program (Impress), a database management tool (Base), a vector graphics editor (Draw), and an app for working with mathematical formulas (Math). LibreOffice also includes a PDF creation and import tool for working with Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) files.
LibreOffice uses the OpenDocument Format (ODF) as its native file format, and the office suite also supports reading and writing of numerous other file formats, including both older and newer Microsoft Office files (including the Office Open XML spec used by Microsoft Office 2007 and Office 2010), OpenOffice.org XML files, and Rich Text File (RTF) files.
LibreOffice is currently available as version 3.4.x for a wide variety of platforms and operating systems, and new releases are expected every six months or so.

A recent New York Times article profiled African Americans who don't believe in God or who have eschewed the faith that many assume is central to the black experience. What does the apparent rise in atheism and agnosticism (pdf) among blacks tell us about the utility of religion for African Americans in today's social and political climate? Interviews with academics, activists and advocates from everywhere on the religious spectrum reveal the diversity of views on this historically fraught — and, for many, highly personal — topic.
For the third in the series, The Root talked to Mark D. Hatcher. He is the 30-year old chief financial officer of the nonprofit Black Atheists of America and the founder of Secular Students at Howard University, where he's a Ph.D. candidate in physiology and biophysics.
Read the other interviews here.
The Root: Are African Americans better or worse off as a result of religion, and why?
Mark D. Hatcher: Religion does seem to provide a sense of security and community to many religious people in general, but these things can be achieved without using God as a middleman. Given the amount of time and money dedicated to securing one's salvation instead of reinforcing [one's] own personal needs, religion acts as a vacuum on the resources of the black community.
How much interest can tithe money accrue over a year? How far would the "building fund" monies go if dedicated to hypertension research? How many job applications can one fill out in the time spent on [one's] knees praying for a change?
TR: Research shows that African Americans believe in God at higher rates than the general population. What explains and sustains the higher rate of spirituality in the black community?
MDH: It is well-established that religion has historically spread through conquest and colonization, and this, too, can be applied to the Christianity forced onto American slaves. However, religion became especially central to this culture because it was one of the only places where they could be a culture. This evolved into the black church becoming the hub for education, fellowship, dating, counseling, politics, etc.
While white cultures had 4-H clubs, country clubs, access to mental-health care and political rallies, the blacks with no access to these things due to segregation found it under the steeple. These powerful roots make it hard to extinguish associations with religion, even among the doubters.
TR: While less than one-half of a percent of African Americans identify themselves as atheists, compared with 1.6 percent of the total population, this group has become more vocal in recent years. What's changed that has allowed blacks to feel more comfortable admitting that they don't believe in God?
MDH: I believe that the increase in outward atheism or agnosticism is simply a result of the world moving away from outdated ideas. The same occurred with growing equality of blacks and women, and we are still making great strides with the homosexual community as well. The world is growing tired of thinking a certain way because "that's just how it is." The idea that so many young people identify themselves as "spiritual but not religious" seems to indicate that they have outgrown religious restriction in favor of thinking for themselves.

Xia Yu to romance Shilpa Shetty
Xia Yu shot into international fame by winning the best actor award in the Venice Film Festival for his debut film In the Heat of the Sun (Xia was the youngest actor to win this award in the history of the festival), 32-year-old Xia said he is yet to meet Shilpa. However, he has watched some of her films to get an idea of his co-star"s work in Bollywood. "She is very pretty and talented," he added. Xia has acted in more than 20 films so far.
If reports are to be believed, actress Shilpa Shetty's role is most challenging. Shilpa Shetty will appear with a "totally-shaved" head for some scenes. (The shaved look has been acheived by some remarkable make up.) The director says that The Desire is essentially a passionate film dealing with dance, music, art, culture and emotions. It revolves around accomplished Odissi dancer Goutami (Shilpa) and talented artist Jai Leang (Xia Yu), following the journey of their lives until they are separated and brought together again by destiny.
Also in the cast are Jayapradha, Anupam Kher, Sachin Khedekar, Sheetal Menon and Nakul Vaid. Indian music maestro A.R. Rahman will score music. Expected to grace theatres in December 2009, The Desire will be dubbed in Chinese as well.

It hasn't even been a year since its release and the T-Mobile G2 already seems to be headed to the Android phone graveyard. TmoNews has received evidence of the device's retirement on Magenta. Users can't find the device on T-Mobile.com and you might be hard-pressed to find it in one of their corporate stores. It's a sad result for the followup to the original Android phone and one we didn't expect to come so soon. It hasn't even gotten Gingerbread yet! (Though T-Mobile assures us they're definitely working on it.) It might not be completely dead yet, but it's getting there.

Rotorua police have released photos of more clothing that belonged to a man found dead in Linton Park reserve to try to identify him.
Police said it was likely he died over the weekend in a small wooded area near the back of the Riri St industrial area and close to the track that runs parallel with Mount View Dr. He was found on Monday morning.
"Although he was wearing casual clothes, he was noticeably clean and tidy, right down to his hair cut and neatly trimmed facial hair," said Detective Sergeant Tony Colby.
"The location would suggest that he is either local or familiar with the area and we find it extremely difficult to believe that this man hasn't got friends and family who may simply not have noticed him missing yet."
His death was not believed to be suspicious but it was important to police that he was identified and returned to his family.
The man is most likely Polynesian, but possibly Maori. Police are estimating his age as in his 20s but don't want anyone to rule out someone who is older or younger based on this estimate.
He had no tattoos but he did have two significant scars on his right inner forearm.
One was a scar about 12cm long running from his wrist up his arm and the other was approximately 4cm long near the elbow joint.
Police said they were thick scars, more likely from an accident than surgery, and likely would have required stitches. On this same wrist he wore a plain plastic yellow wristband.
He had short cropped hair and thin razored, well groomed sideburns and facial hair.
His clothing included a blue Bulldogs cap and black and red Nike trainers He wore a khaki Dickies shirt over a purple and yellow singlet with Lakers 24 on the front and BRYANT on the back. Under that he wore a black t-shirt with a Crack a Woody design.
He also wore Dickies shorts that matched his shirt and his belt had a distinctive steel buckle that doubled as a bottle opener.
Anyone who saw someone they know fitting this description in the area late last week or over the weekend is asked to contact Rotorua police on (07) 348 0099.
Police are also urging people to consider any neighbours or friends who fit the description and notify police if someone who matches the description cannot be contacted or located.

Can someone please help me?
hey people, Im trying to make my wii as closeto clean andwireless as possible, getting a wireless sencor bar. Im thinking about getting a Nintendo brand wavebird controler, just to give nintendo some extra cash, or a pelican controler. With the wavebird there are 16 diffrent channels, so It would not disturb the other controler's waves. I don't think the pelican has this so I was wondering if i get four pelican controlers, will they interfear with each other. I hope not, cuz the nintendo ones are bigger, and weigh more. Plus they don't have the rumble feture. The pelicans are lighter then the norm and have rumble, plus cost at lest 15$ less.
Can someone please help me?
I have 2 I-Con wireless GC controllers... and they both auto select and don't interfere with each other.
So... I can use either reciever with either controller.
I know it's not pelican but it's aftermarket and same technology...so it might help
Not shure about a handful of pelicans but my advice is buy a Wavebird... then a couple pelicans... when u play with your buddies be greedy n use the nicer wavebird for yourself
more helpful... the pelican has 8 channels... so im shure you're ok
anyone used these pelican controllers? they any good? i'm looking for some cheap gc controllers myself

I've never had good luck with Pelican accessories. Twice I've bought their stuff, it didn't work as advertised. I was going to send back a GBA cable to them, and the cheap a$$ connector broke off one end! They wouldn't take it back! >_>
I don't like that company at ALL.

Can someone give me more info please?
anyone? please?
Um, no one is going to answer while your being annoying by bumping your thread every hour.
Personally, I'd go with the Wavebird. One of my friends bought a Pelican once and it crapped out; also while the Wavebird is a bit bigger, it fits better in your hand than the smaller Pelican ones.

Hearing Set For CDBG Funding
WHEELING – With the passage last week of Wheeling's budget for the upcoming fiscal year – which contained no funding for the Human Rights Commission – a last-minute change in plans appears to be the only way for the group to avoid an 89-percent funding cut on July 1.
Subject to final approval by City Council in May, City Manager Robert Herron's proposal for distributing the city's annual allocation of federal Community Development Block Grant funds would give the organization just $7,000 to operate during the 2013-14 year, down from almost $66,000 this year. Much of those funds would instead be distributed among several nonprofit agencies.
Residents can let council members know how they believe the city's CDBG allocation should be distributed by attending a public hearing at 5:30 p.m. April 16.
With only $7,000 to spend, the HRC would have to let go its only paid employee, longtime Executive Director Theresa Garrett, whose salary and benefits account for about 80 percent of the group's budget this year. City leaders have said the commission's volunteer board won't be dissolved, but its role as an enforcer of the city's laws against discrimination would be passed on to the state Human Rights Commission.
Wheeling's Human Rights Commission has been funded exclusively with CDBG money for about 20 years.
After learning of the proposed budget cut, commission members urged council to consider providing money from the general fund, to no avail.
Several residents spoke in favor of funding for the HRC during council's March 6 meeting, and two more – Geneva Barrox and Frank Calabrese – expressed their support during last Tuesday's meeting.
"The Human Rights Commission is for those without redress. … It's about those without a place to go," Calabrese said.
Because Wheeling has yet to learn its exact entitlement amount, the proposed CDBG budget assumes the city will receive the same amount it did last year, about $1.12 million. However, Herron said it's likely the city will see an 8-percent reduction in its allocation to about $1.03 million.
Under the current plan, $139,276 – or about 12.4 percent – would be allocated for public service agencies.
According to federal regulations, a city may spend up to 15 percent of its total entitlement for public services.
With $7,000 going to the Human Rights Commission, the rest would be distributed as follows: $50,026 to the police department for directed patrols in East Wheeling and on Wheeling Island; $33,000 for the city-owned Nelson Jordan Center; $30,000 for Wheeling Health Right; $10,000 for the Soup Kitchen of Greater Wheeling; $5,000 for the Greater Wheeling Homeless Coalition and $4,250 for the Seeing Hand Association.
The remaining $982,800 would go toward program administration, economic development and capital projects in low- to moderate-income areas, including $400,000 for replacement of the former Elks Playground in East Wheeling; $224,000 for program administration, including $100,000 for the city's comprehensive plan; $188,000 toward repaying a Section 108 loan from the U.S Department of Housing and Urban Development that was used to bring Lowe's to South Wheeling; $100,000 for building demolition, $70,800 for street paving and sidewalk repair; and $12,000 for renovations to the Wheeling-Ohio County Health Department offices in the City-County Building.
Council is expected to vote on the CDBG budget during its May 7 meeting.

The hopeful conveners of the "Good Jobs, Green Jobs" conference held in Washington this week are convinced that they have a solution to the twin problems of a shrinking U.S. job market and the existential threat of climate change. Their answer? Green-collar employment for millions of Americans.
We've heard of white- and blue-collar work—but green jobs?
After a week of political dog-fighting over an economic stimulus package ended with news that the U.S. economy shed almost 600,000 jobs in January, President Obama called the news "devastating." And recently, his Energy Secretary Steven Chu warned, ominously, that without swift action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, Americans might see their way of life grind to a halt. "I don't actually see how they can keep their cities going," Chu told the Los Angeles Times.
Enter green jobs. The Apollo Alliance, one of the organizers of the conference and among the earliest advocates of an earth-friendly economy, defines them as "family sustaining" employment that protects or cleans the environment, slows climate change, and, in many cases, is resistant to outsourcing. These jobs involve everything from the obviously green—clean water projects and brown fields cleanup; to the high-tech—solar panel installation, ethanol or biodiesel production; to the sensible—flood control work, or weatherizing homes and businesses to reduce heating and cooling costs. Times are tough, but plenty of green jobs already exist. And some existing work may find more ecological applications: Workers at a manufacturing plant may stay on an existing assembly line, but instead of cranking out gas-guzzling SUVs, they may be making parts for hybrid cars and high-performance electric batteries, or steel turbines for wind power.
Lisa Jackson, the new administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, addressed the three-day conference on Friday, touting the White House's plan for green stimulus. She insisted that the nation no longer had to choose between creating well-paying jobs and protecting the environment. "Not long ago you had to choose—you could have one green or the other green," she said. Initiatives that provide good union wages and help the planet—say, electrical engineers helping to install light rail lines to the suburbs—she added, are "a very tangible demonstration … that you can have both the clean job and money in your pocket to feed your family."
It is a timely debate; job losses continue to mount in the construction and manufacturing sectors, where the potential for green job creation is great. More than 320,000 jobs were lost in manufacturing and construction in the last month.
The White House was also showcasing it green-jobs commitment this week, when Melody Barnes, the president's domestic policy adviser, talked about "energy investments as a primary form [of economic stimulus]." She highlighted the administration's attempts to put green-job training funds in the proposed legislation. The president's proposal also included funding for making government buildings more energy efficient, but those provisions seemed not to have survived a late-night compromise reached Friday.
More than 2,500 people showed up for the second annual "Good Jobs, Green Jobs" conference, compared with about 700 who went to Pittsburgh last year. A considerably more diverse crowd attended the event, sponsored by the Blue Green Alliance—formed in 2005 and made up initially of the Sierra Club and the United Steel Workers. Among the unions represented this week were the Teamsters, SEIU, IBEW, and United Association of Plumbers and Pipefitters, in addition to entrepreneurs and traditional conservationists of all stripes.
It was the host city, the District of Columbia, however, that led the charge, sponsoring 20 booths at a Green Jobs Expo. While the federal government is changing its tone—"We've never really worked the job angle before," said one Energy Department employee—the community response to the outreach in a predominantly black city was another sign of changing times. More than 100 young people from the Young America Works Public Charter School in Northeast Washington attended the Expo. Danny Lienau, a social studies teacher at YAW, a vocational school that focuses on construction engineering and design, said his students are "very interested in the future potential of green jobs expanding the market." Nyasha Klusmann, 16, is a convert. "All my science projects have to do with global warming," she said. "It's cool that they have jobs based around an issue."
