EVA Air Selects Rockwell Collins for 777 Avionics
Taiwan carrier EVA Air announced a package of new avionics upgrades from Rockwell Collins Thursday at the Paris Air Show.
The package includes the "full suite" of Rockwell Collins cockpit avionics, according to the company. EVA selected the upgrades for seven new 777s. The airline has an option to add four additional aircraft, which would also feature the Rockwell Collins package as well.
"This is an especially meaningful win for Rockwell Collins since EVA was our launch customer for MultiScan when we first brought it to market," said TC Chan, vice president and managing director, Asia Pacific for Rockwell Collins.
The new systems will begin delivery to Taiwan next year, according to a company statement.

Monte Carlo
The year was 1945. Two earthshaking events took place: the successful test at Alamogordo and the building of the first electronic computer. Their combined impact was to modify qualitatively the nature of global interactions between Russia and the West. No less perturbative were the changes wrought in all of academic research and in applied science. On a less grand scale these events brought about a [renaissance] of a mathematical technique known to the old guard as statistical sampling; in its new surroundings and owing to its nature, there was no denying its new name of the Monte Carlo method (PDF). -N. MetropolisConceptually talked about on MeFi previously, some basic Monte Carlo methods include the Inverse Transform Method (PDF) mentioned in the quoted paper, Acceptance-Rejection Sampling (PDFs 1,2), and integration with and without importance sampling (PDF).

Interesting. He has Curry going off the board at #3 to KC, and Crabtree going to Oakland at #7. If that scenario unfolds, I'm hoping someone is enamored enough with Crabtree to trade up. Also has Rey-Rey going to Denver at #12 (followed by Orapko at #13 to the 'Skins), which I have seen a lot now.

Party of one? Here�s how to craft a delicious vegetarian meal when cooking for one.
The image of the solitary cook is often a bleak one: A man or woman in an empty apartment, heating up a tasteless microwave meal or hunched over the countertop spooning cereal into their mouths. Just because you�re cooking for one, though, doesn�t mean you have to settle for uninspired, ho-hum meals. Recognizing the challenges of shopping, planning and cooking for one, renowned food columnist Joe Yonan has published a cookbook with the single cook in mind. Whether you are single, divorced or widowed, Yonan�s Eat Your Vegetables�is a useful resource for crafting bold and unfussy veggie-centric cuisine for one. �I struggle with a lot of these challenges myself,� says Joe, an award-winning food editor at The Washington Post and author of the popular column �Cooking for One.� �How to make interesting food that doesn�t result in a mountain of monotonous leftovers; how to avoid waste; how to avoid eating the same thing night after night.� Before you succumb to takeout once again, hold the phone: Cooking for yourself can be easy and�yes�fun. Below, Yonan offers several practical guidelines for efficiently shopping, prepping and cooking for one: 1)�Do food prep at the beginning of the week. On Sunday evenings, when you have free time, roast a big pan of vegetables or cook up a large pot of rice and store it in Tupperware bins or Ziploc bags in the fridge or freezer. �At the end of the workday, when you�re tempted to call for takeout, you�ll realize that you have enough ingredients on hand to put something together really quickly,� Yonan explains. 2)�Scope out farmers� markets whenever possible. �At the supermarket, you can rarely buy anything less than an full bunch of celery, for instance,� Yonan says. �But at a farmer�s market, I�ve never met a farmer or vendor at a farmers market who wouldn�t let me buy a handful of spinach greens if I wanted to.� 3)�Shop strategically. �Buy things you can use in multiple ways,� Yonan says. �Focus on purchasing the �building blocks� of recipes, rather than obscure ingredients you�ll only use once.� 4)�Don�t shy away from frozen ingredients. �Include the idea of frozen vegetables into your repertoire to ensure that you aren�t letting things go to waste,� Yonan suggests. RELATED: The Best New Vegetarian Cookbooks 5)�Get creative. �Start with what you�ve got�look at the ingredients you have and get inspired from those,� Yonan says. �I keep a lot of pungently flavored condiments and spices and oils and vinegars around, and then I usually combine them with something that�s already precooked in my fridge or freezer. That usually speeds up my solo-serving meals quite considerably.� 6) �Stop stuffing. Don�t cram a bunch of produce into the produce drawer; keep things where they�re most visible. �I call the �crisper� the �rotter.� Generally, if it�s out of sight, it�s out of mind,� Yonan explains, adding that it�s not a bad idea to keep an inventory of everything that�s stored in your fridge or freezer tacked to the refrigerator. �It helps me remember what�s in there.� Most importantly, Yonan encourages single cooks to discover the joys of solo cooking and get excited about caring for themselves. �With the older demographic, what they need most of all is inspiration. They�ve cooked for a family or spouse for a long time, and their whole notion of cooking is so intertwined with caretaking for someone else,� Yonan says. �They need to realize that they�re worth taking care of, and that they�re important too.� Rather than resorting to another frozen veggie burger, treat yourself tonight with this no-hassle, delicious three-course vegetarian dinner courtesy of Yonan�s Eat Your Vegetables.

This was paintball advertising in 2001-
This is paintball advertising in 2012-
Advertising is what keeps your magazine in business, subscriptions are your profit.
No advertising, no magazine
With facebook, twitter, youtube, and the other social media channels for business, they don't need to advertise anymore. Dye has 246,390 likes on their Facebook page. If someone sneezes on a keyboard at Dye, 246,390 people know about it INSTANTLY, across their computers AND their mobile devices..... FREE of charge!
How can anyone keep up with that?
Go to Dye and tell them "Hey, if you guys buy advertising in my magazine for $2,000 a page, you'll be able to reach 10,000 subscribers in two months when the magazine is printed!"
$2,000 for an ad in two months, that reaches 10,000 people
Free, 246,390 people.... in the next 30 seconds.....
(poof) I loved Facefull Magazine, but no one can compete with Youtube or Facebook in regards to advertising, no one. Not TechPB, not PBN, not Facefull, no one. Advertising has dried up, it's gone

The whole hardcopy industry is aching. I know the yellow pages bought up shares in Canada411.com. They had too. The autotrader doesn't rely on hardcopy much. When was the last time anybody here bought a TV guide (which at one point was the number 1 magazine in North American.)

They put out a VERY high quality publication, for many many years. They were edgy, their magazines were amazing, the articles and the coverage was awesome.
But like all good things, it has to come to an end.
I think focusing on the end, doesn't provide them with the respect they deserve as a long standing publication of this sport. They did awesome, and when it was time to jump out and pop the chute, they did

With technology advancing the way it is, I wouldn't be surprised to see more book publishers go out of business too. It's happening as we speak. The E-book industry is rapidly becoming more convenient, so eventually there will be no need for paper books if you can get them on an app, a nook or some other device.

Okay, am I missing something? I didn't know that a hiatus meant that they were done for good. From what I read, they are taking a break to determine if it is worthwhile for them to keep going. I can understand that they probably won't have a print magazine after that, but I can see them restructuring to be more like Social Paintball.
The only thing that is going to determine is if it worthwhile to keep going, is advertising ($$$$$)
And as we all know, paintball companies simply do not need to advertise anymore. They don't advertise in forums, they don't advertise in magazines, they are all taking complete control of their advertising in house.
They are done d00d, no way they can come back, re-establish their sales channels, get a huge infusion of advertising dollars and a huge infusion of subscriptions, plus have the money to pay the labor and design fees to build a whole new magazine for the re-launch
put a fork in it, it's done

Loosely know about the Premier League and the Champions League ... and obviously the MLS. And then, if I'm correct, there's a very strong league in Spain and Italy.
Some questions ...
How do you see these games on TV? Is there some kind of cable soccer channel you can subscribe to?
Which league(s) are most worth following?
Do they suspend play in these other leagues for the Champions League games?
What's leagues have most of the star players we're seeing in the World Cup?
Are there major rule changes from league to league? Or do all follow the rules of the World Cup?

Support World CouncilWith Amazon Smiles!
Michael Lanotte, the Association's general counsel and SVP of Association services, and Michael Carter, the Association's director of compliance, led the conference.
"When credit union entities come together as they did for this conference, everyone wins-especially the credit union movement," said Lanotte. "It's truly representative of the 'people helping people' commitment credit unions have made throughout the world."
During the conference, Lanotte provided an overview of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Carter offered an update on recently passed regulations. The pair also engaged attendees in a "compliance workshop," posing several compliance scenarios and working through potential issues and solutions as a group.
The conference was offered as part of the Association's ongoing partnership with Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands through the World Council of Credit Unions (WOCCU) international partnership program. The groups have been partnered since 2005. This conference marked the fourth collaborative event.
"The Association's partnership with Puerto Rican credit unions has been and will continue to be an active one," said Carter. "The group has a Compliance Officers Association, which I look forward to working with them to help provide up-to-date compliance information."
"It's always a pleasure to participate in an exchange such as this," said Victor Miguel Corro, senior manager, International Partnerships, WOCCU. "It reflects the true cooperative nature of our industry and shows the value in sharing resources through this partnership. I received such positive feedback from the credit unions in Puerto Rico. As they navigate the intricate web of rules and regulations, it's always great to count on the expertise and experience of the New York Credit Union Association."
The Credit Union Association of New York has served as the trade association for the state's credit unions for 93 years. New York credit unions have assets of more than $50 billion and 4.4 million members. To learn more about the Association, visit www.cuany.org.

PupsPosted Friday, January 27, 2012, at 1:59 PM
We are lucky enough to have some AWESOME working dogs.
They're all black and white, 'except for Scout, who shows up later.
Below with LOTS of white is Macys. She is named after the store Macys, well, because I like Macys! She is a super sweet female who is pretty much just a pet. Again, I say, she is super sweet, and loves everyone. Puppies, other dogs, kids.... but not work. I said we have some awesome working dogs. She has done some awesome work, but she gets nervous, when I try to sound commanding.... and then I have to pretty much beg her not to just light out for home. She's real good at walking behind my horse quietly. I have found if I start to do something, she's kind of willing to help out. I kept her from one litter, cuz she has blue eyes like mine and my horse. So much for that reasoning! She needs a new home, if anyone is interested, but has to be a good one.
The pup's name is Andy. Short for Anderson Bean. Anderson Bean is a boot company that I like. They're my dogs, I call 'em what I want! Andy's mom is Penneys. (yeah, after the store Penneys) She is farthest to the left. You know, the black and white dog! sheesh! Macys is Andy's Aunt. Penneys and Macys are related.... let me see if I can keep this straight. Macys Mom Katie had a litter a couple years ago. Those Babies Daddy is Penneys' Baby Daddy. ? yeah, that's it. Part of that litter was given to a friend of ours. In payment a couple years later, he brought us Penneys. I know, it's confusing.
Remember Sam? He went to Kindergarten and learned to play basketball with me at school for awhile. He has become an absolutely awesome cow dog. I'm sure his education served him well. He is the one just peaking around the tree, with the red collar. (you know the black and white dog) He is Andy's Dad. Yeah, it's OK. Trust me. She is also his 1st get, and he's a bit fascinated by her. There were 3 of the litter, but Andy is the only one we kept. We kept her, because she shows potential to be fairly big like him, and already showed signs of wanting to "gather everything up" when she can. She likes to 'run ahead' (which I could NEVER get Macys to do)
Look at the size of those paws on Andy! She looks like a little bear cub!
For a Border Collie, Sam is huge. And he's tough. He loves his work, and thrives on it. I love all that. But what I love THE MOST is how sweet he is. This might look a bit rough, but they are playing and they love one another.
Sam's mouth is what cows pay attention to. It's just about always open and looks like an Alligator so they move when he asks. He only bites when he needs, and usually doesn't need to. He never bites the other dogs. And he will come and wrap his arms around you, a kid...and stay and just love to be huggggged back. He jumps on the trampoline with our grand kids (I'll have to get pics of that) and they all love him. He has learned to control his exuberance also. He goes at mach 10 at all times, so he's taken out a kid or 2. He's been taught that is not really that fun.
I love this series of photos. It looks like Sam comes over to Andy and says, "Let's take a walk kid, I wanna talk to ya"
She loves anything to do with anything, so "Ok Daddy!"
She obviously adores him,.... and I love his smile
Looks like they had a good talk!
And then they are off to play!
Scout was getting jealous, so I let him in to play too.
it's not long before the younger dogs are making Scout 'rethink' his thought that this would be fun. They love messin' with the old guy.
Penneys is going in for the kill of one of his legs. And that's Katie, Sam's Mom laying to the right. Her pups are always in demand, but she didn't have any this year. She just hung out and worked.
I giggle when I see this picture of Andy. She looks like a Kangaroo...eh Mate? Or maybe a Black Bear.

Sounds like a great little puppy. Wish I could afford the time and energy it would require to take it off your hands.

I had never been a dog person until I had my first border collie. I have had cats my entire life. I was and still am amazed how smart and easy to train the border collies are. My Jhordyn was 16 when we lost her and she was amazing. She had a great life and I so appreciated the fact that she shared it with my family. She showed such interest while we were working the Black n~Tan Hound many years ago at the time that she had an almost 2 year stint with Elmore Search & Rescue. She was so smart and so quick to learn. She also had all the working dog instincts and never failed to "round up" a herd of boys when they were running thru my yard. To date we still have a border and Tipcee is something else. Got her from here in town as a companion to Jhordyn in her older years. Since I am older she does not get quite so many miles on her little legs and I don't seem to have the energy I used to but Jhordyn trained her well. Lol! I have such respect for the working dog breeds. This one is our child as we neglected to tell her she is a D.O.G.
I can't imagine my life without our critters!
Thanks for sharing your pictures.

There's courage in not selling Home
By CATHY SNYDER
The issue of the County Home continues to be a powder keg topic that has brought about more negative discussion. After all is said and done, the legislature needs to be accountable for what happens to those taxpayers who will not be served if we are sold.
Our legislators:
Will either allow our county to continue to provide care and oversight to our most vulnerable residents, or they could place our home into the hands of a company with a history of poor care that has no loyalty to our county residents.
They can turn a deaf ear and a blind eye when they are confronted with accounts of health-related hardships faced by taxpaying constituents or their family members. Instead of being willing and able to help by referring to the County Home, it will be easier to walk away and blame their situation on the will of other constituents, state mandates, laziness, not investing for the future, or failure to buy long term care insurance.
They will either choose to keep valued employees or they will decide that these specific county employees are somehow less deserving than possibly themselves or other employees whose paycheck, benefits, and standard of living depend on tax dollars.
They can forget that the profits – much of it your tax money – gleaned by investor owned corporations will leave our county instead of being fully recycled into the local economy; and that any taxes paid by this company would pale in comparison to the collective spending of employees to local businesses and the tax base.
They can argue that they would vote to sell for the benefit of the county taxpayers. They can easily convince themselves of that when they aren't the taxpayers needing placement. It's also easy when they have no first hand knowledge or experience in caring for the people that are living in the County Home.
They can ignore the statistics, studies and reports that demonstrate how privatization of the health-care system has made the consumer a commodity; has driven costs higher while few reap huge profits; has made quality healthcare less accessible and less affordable to many more (forcing more to use Medicaid); has decreased quality of care for those without unlimited resources; and has decreased employee benefits with the resulting usage of government sponsored programs.
They can condone and support divisive, short-sighted remarks made by the Chamber of Commerce and the resulting successful division of the north and south county; instead of including everyone (including the Chamber) in finding solutions that would benefit people on both sides of the issue.
They can dispute, disregard, and reject: studies, recommendations and solutions for the Home that would increase financial integrity and efficiencies for continued service to county taxpayers; while bloated spending continues in the rest of the county and the state.
They can disagree that selling our county nursing homes across the state is not going to make our local or state fiscal problems go away; and how these sales are part of the political swindling that is changing the humanity and the socioeconomic landscape of our state and soon, our country.
They can justify their position to sell with all the false indignation they can muster. But the truth is, their reasoning falls short; and some of them think they will never be in the position of any of the people who will need the County Home. How very lucky for them.
They can join forces with others in doing everything they can to criticize, discredit, and threaten a group of legislators that would vote "no sale;" that have the capacity and conviction to challenge, investigate, tackle serious problems, ask difficult questions and consider the future.
We can thank God for this group of upstanding, outstanding legislators. They represent how government should function. They are the voice of reason and are truly committed to the well being of all our county residents. They are to be commended for their courage , their values, and their insight. They deserve our respect and gratitude, not the contempt being shoved down our throats.
The other legislators can continue to follow the choices outlined above. Some others may yet weaken and succumb to overwhelming political pressure and threats. If these are the things that define and foster good representation, then I guess you could say they've done their job well (or as well as they could). How sad for all of us.
Cathy Snyder is a Dunkirk resident and County Home employee.

Hope you're not too attached to Microsoft's native IM client, because reports are saying that the company is phasing out Windows Live Messenger in favor of Skype. Several unnamed sources have stated that Microsoft is planning to retire their messaging service, instead replacing it with Skype integration.
Over the last several months, Microsoft has already begun merging the two systems, to a point where 80 percent of instant messages sent through Skype now utilize Messenger's systems.
While Microsoft hasn't issued a comment over the news, official word is expected to come soon, perhaps within the next few weeks. Users can already link their Microsoft accounts to Skype, with Skype 6.0 for Mac and Windows, which offers the option to log in using either your Microsoft or Facebook credentials.
Thanks for the tip, Avalith!

And Now For Something Completely Different…Tuesday, September 1st, 2009
…It's Mitzi TV!
And just what did you think it was, a man with three buttocks?
In case you didn't already know (like where you been, mate?), Mitzi TV is the new web TV channel to head to for all things quirky and eccentric in London. We've gone from crazy pub singalongs, eating jellied eel, and chatting about classic cars with such luminaries as Formula 1 racecar driver/BBC TV presenter Tiff Needell, couture shoe designer Jimmy Choo and Batman – to Morris dancing with software geeks. And no, this wasn't in the same episode!
Of course, I couldn't create all this madness and mayhem without the talents of cameraman extraordinaire/stand-up diamond geezah Steve Beer and cutie-pie theme musicman extraordinaire Andrew Shatnyy (Facebook/MySpace). And let's not forget the talents of my handsome (albeit furry) production assistant extraordinaire Teddy Tedaloo, who also provides onscreen talent.
As for those buttocks I mentioned, how do you deal with a governmental body that has all the common sense of not even one buttock?
In my never-ending quest to bring you the ever-quirky and eccentric (while still managing to stay out of the loony bin), I recently found myself entering into a rather annoying fracas with a governmental body: the Royal Parks people. I knew I should've cut through all those buzzing drones and biscuit-eating/tea drinking middle men (and women) and gone straight to the top, specifically HRH. Now Lizzie's a queen who gets things done!
I am referring to a recent attempt by yours truly to line up permission to shoot a Mitzi TV video at Speaker's Corner in London's Hyde Park. Because it's a "Royal" park, I knew I'd need to obtain an official okay. I mean, it wasn't like we'd be there with a little digital camera and could subtly blend into the crowd. We run a professional operation with professional equipment. (Plus people have commented on that big-ass mike I use, so "subtle" is not the word that springs to mind when we're talking a Mitzi TV shoot.) Since Speaker's Corner necessitates a substantial police presence (some of the speakers and audience members can get pretty wound up apparently), I didn't fancy being led away by the Old Bill, therefore I decided to follow the proper channels to make the shoot happen. It's a quirky kind of event, and Mitzi TV is nothing if not quirky, so it didn't seem likely I'd be given an "on yer bike, missus!".
When I received an email replying to my query, I thought, hey, this is great – sounds like we're in! Here follows the exact text that refers directly to the issue about who and what controls the area in question:
Speaker's Corner is an integral part of Hyde Park, which is one of London's eight Royal Parks. The Royal Parks are owned by the Crown, but were passed to the Government under the Crown Lands Act 1851 to be managed as public open space. They are now the responsibility of the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, who delegates their day to day management to The Royal Parks. They are funded by the taxpayer.
"Public open space." "Funded by the taxpayer." Well, I'm no lawyer, but this sounds like the definition of a public place – and you do not need permission to film in a public place (not yet anyway). That is why it's called "PUBLIC." That statement about being funded by the taxpayer put a further stamp of approval on the process, because guess who's a taxpayer? Yeah, moi. Just to make certain there was no misinterpretation on my part as to what clearly looked to be a clear description of who controls the park, I messaged once more to confirm that I'd be allowed to shoot some video of the speakers, and asked which specific days they were there spouting off.
The reply came back that these Soapbox Annies and Alis are there on Sundays only, and yes, I would need permission to film, but my message was being forwarded to the Appropriate Party. Not wanting to waste time, I shot off an email to this A.P., explaining what I wished to do and that I'd like to take care of the details as quickly as possible. A.P. messaged back, informing me that they do not permit filming at Speaker's Corner on Sundays, but I could phone them to discuss the matter further.
Umm… did they not just tell me that I couldn't film there on a Sunday? So what was there to discuss, the weather? Of course we all know how the Brits love to talk about the weather.
So did this mean they'd give me permission to film at Speaker's Corner on a day that was not a Sunday? Now forgive me if I'm wrong (or extremely stupid), but what's the point of filming speakers at Speaker's Corner when there aren't any speakers there to film? This is the very question I put forth to A.P. in my reply, also mentioning the fact that plenty of people have shot videos there – how could this be possible if they needed to obtain permission? Needless to say, my email did not receive a response.
Now I have nothing against doing a bit of guerrilla filming – I've got more cajones than any of the men I've known. However, what I do have something against is being harassed (and led away by handcuffs) by the police. There's a time and place for handcuffs – and this isn't one of them. Besides which, London coppers aren't as cute as they used to be. They're getting a bit wide, if you know what I mean, looking more and more like their doughnut-eating American counterparts. So we'd better forget the handcuffs for now.
As for Mitzi TV, keep an eye out for me at Speaker's Corner, because I don't like taking "no" for an answer.
Guess it's a good thing they abolished beheading in this country…

CANON CITY — The fallout from the June 11 Royal Gorge Fire that forced closure of the city's major revenue generator resulted Monday in the elimination of nine city jobs.
"The Royal Gorge Bridge Company is saying they believe the payment on the lease will be down and the city is looking at a considerable shortfall — an estimated $1 million shortfall, which is 10 to 12 percent of our operating budget," said City Administrator Doug Dotson. "That is huge."
The city eliminated nine positions but was able to put four of those laid-off employees back to work in other positions. One of the most notable layoffs was longtime city employee Becky Walker, who was working as administrative services director overseeing projects such as the remodeling of the Canon City Public Library.
Walker had worked two decades with the city and served as city clerk for many of those years. Another longtime employee was laid off from the city forestry crew, Dotson said.
"It has been an unfortunate day but we have a financial situation we've got to deal with. We will be taking such a hit in terms of a community's revenue — it is a situation where we have to save money and it is not aimed at anyone in particular," Dotson said.
Some of the work that laid-off city employees did will be contracted out to the private sector, a move that will save the city about $350,000, Dotson said.
"One of the contractors hopes to hire at least two of our (laid-off) people," Dotson said.
Until revenues rebound, Dotson said the city has to be very wise about how it spends its money and likely will have to delay several projects planned for next year as well.

Kickstarter Open Source Death Star
Kickstarter Open Source Death Star
We need to protect ourselves from threats far far away so lets build a death star.
We need to protect ourselves from threats far far away so lets build a death star. Read more
About this project
In November 2012 the people asked for a death star. The government said NO!
In light of continuing threats we should build it ourselves.
£20,000,000 for more detailed plans and enough chicken wire to protect reactor exhaust ports.
Stretch Goal
£543,000,000,000,000,00 ($850,000,000,000,000,000) to secure full funding for actual construction.
Open Source
To keep costs lower the entire project will use open source hardware and software.
Risks and challenges
The only risk is the power of the Force.
The main challenge is assuring Kickstarter that this is a joke and not a serious project. As proof, the goal has been set high enough to make successful funding almost impossible.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter
Any decisions on targets will be based on donator pledge amount, higher pledges first. The amount is unimportant but you will be required to pay for shipping.
Nothing has been ruled out at this point including the suggestion of using a beowulf cluster of Raspberry Pi devices.
Purchase at least 4m sq of high grade chicken wire. We are hoping the death star plans will have at least twice the resolution of the initial design.
No, as we feel if we can actually raise £543 quadrillion pounds then Kickstarter certainly deserves their cut. As for Amazon, we're sure they'll agree to refund the fees once the station is complete.
Unlikely as it would make travel between solar systems more dangerous.
No, the first Death Stars was closed source and the theft of the plans resulting in the loss of many Bothan lives. Had the previous Death Star plans been more open, someone might have spotted the obvious design flaw. We believe that an open source project is safer, cheaper and better for everyone.
Will there be an Ipod dock, USB Ports, a wookie hair salon, guest rooms on the Open Source Death Star?
The plans will be finalized once the project reaches it's funding goal. Ipod docks are closed source, evil and will result in Bothan deaths.
If we let everyone choose the colour of one piece it'll pobably look grey anyway so we'll either have a poll or paint it rainbow colours. Yes there will be a smiley on it.

The Story of i3 Detroit
The founding of i3 detroit largely started with Russ Wolfe. Russ read an article in wired magazine that was talking about the growth and idea of hackerspaces. Russ started and worked on gathering a group of like-minded people, had a logo designed and set up a website. He put significant effort into seeking out people who would be interested and bringing them together. That effort was a huge part of i3's success. All of the people who got involved initially were complete strangers, so there wasn't really an in-group and an out-group. The initial members also all had lots of different skill sets and perspectives (as much as a group of white suburban males can). The group debated a lot, but if we all agreed on something, we knew we were on the right track. There were 5 people at the first meeting at the Coffee Beanery in Berkeley in April 2009. By July 2009, there were 9 members, and the group started collecting dues.
By this time, the group was spending a lot of time meeting and discussing how to build a hackerspace and they were not actually making anything as a group. Matt Switlik, a founding member, opened up his garage to the group, so they started to have meetings at Matt's garage. they started with holding a small build session to build bristlebots. It was fun and got us all to actually build something together. This was the first meeting that Nick Britsky was at. The group found out that Ann Arbor was going to hold a mini maker faire so they decided to do a group build. The group build for the mini maker faire was a giant ride-able bristlebot. The group took this to the mini maker faire representing themselves as i3 Detroit with booklets on how to become a member and information about their grassroots effort.
After the mini maker faire i3 Detroit really wanted a space. Jaime Wolfe, Russ Wolfe's wife, helped run the financial numbers for a few different spaces and what kind of income was needed to survive. The founding members agreed to fund the space with $100 monthly dues. The group had negotiated a space in Royal Oak down to an affordable rate with a growth plan in the rent over time. The group had 13 members when they took possession of the Royal Oak space on labor day weekend of 2009.
i3 Detroit spent the next month as a group putting our personally money into bettering the space. They set a goal in of holding a grand opening in October. After a long month of working late into the nights with both members and guests who started stopping by the space and stuck around to help with the build out (Nate W and Rashad really stand out) the grand opening party needed to happen. The group once again raised funds for being able to throw a party and was even able to get a local brewery to donate two kegs for the party.
i3 Detroit had written a personal letter to Jim Ellison, the Mayor of Royal Oak, and invited him to do the ribbon cutting. Metro Times had posted the grand opening party event and the group was finally ready to share what they had been working on. The space had 17 members by party day. A lot of people showed up throughout the day including the Mayor who stylishly cut the ribbon with an oxy-acetylene welding torch. The party went late into the evening and even though the members were all tired it felt great to feel successful at what they accomplished. The space looked great, local art was hung on the walls throughout the space. http://www.flickr.com/photos/bradmcmahon/3980374005/ ,http://www.flickr.com/photos/bradmcmahon/3981078906/ .
Along the way, i3 Detroit had reached out to other hackerspaces like Pumping Station One and they started to build a really good relationship and shared ideas of what has worked and what has not. The founding members of Pumping Station One and i3 all really started to become good friends. The PS:One members would come out to i3 to spend time and the i3 members would drive out to Chicago. This is how PS:One really became i3 Detroit's sister space.
The i3 members spread the word, went to local events to hand out flyers and even got i3 involved in other group's events. Nick Britsky and Russ Wolfe spent a lot time reaching out to other organizations, going to meetings, building relationships with Make, Handmade Detroit etc... The founding members were really good at talking about i3 and spreading the word. They all seemed to live and breathe i3 at this point.
There were struggles as well, such as trying to determine what the right price point for membership was to grow the organization and not seem like a closed off group. When the group had to leave Royal Oak and find a new building they also had to raise the funds. The group used word of mouth and Kickstarter with the "help save the robots" campaign. It worked and the group was able to secure the current Ferndale space. i3 Detroit prided itself on holding community events, classes etc... and this helped to build the organization.
On March 31st, 2010, i3Detroit migrated to its new home in Ferndale, MI. More than 6,000 square feet larger, the new location has over 1,000 square feet of office space and roughly 7,000 square feet of warehouse floor. The move was very hastily done, nothing was organized and the space was functionally paralyzed for a few months. This, coupled with a mold issue in the office areas which had to be renovated by members, required determination and commitment from members to bring the space to functionality. Amid the sound of saws and compressors, the new space and i3Detroit's first birthday were both celebrated with a barbeque on April 25th, 2010.

China's Turns on World's Longest High Speed Rail Conduit
Jason Mick

U.S. is left in the dust as China blazes ahead with $1T USD rail bid
America may be witnessing its
descent into the twilight
in terms of being on the bleeding edge of transportation technology. This week China, the world's most populous nation
the world's longest stretch of high-speed rail.
Linking the capital city of Beijing in the north with the southern city of Guangzhou, the 2,298 kilometer (1,428 mile) line has already began ferrying passengers at 300 kilometers per hour (186 mph). The line will cut the fastest travel time between the cities from around 20 hours to only 8 hours, making it a day trip.
150 pairs of trains (300 total) will run daily along the line, which passes through the provincial capitals cities Shijiazhuang, Wuhan and Changsha.
The rail line was not achieved without setbacks. The bullet train project's supervisor, the former railway minister, and the ministry's chief engineer were both detained in a corruption probe after a bullet train crash killed 40 people in mid-2011 and after a section of track in central China collapsed under heavy March rains. China had to rebuild some of the line and slow test runs after finding corrupt contractors had
used subpar building materials
to construct sections of the track.

China, however, is not looking to let off the gas. It will have four major east-west lines, and three more major north-south lines by 2020, linking virtually every major city in China. While the U.S. and other economic rivals initially expressed skepticism of China's ambitious rail plans -- which are expected to
cost around $1T USD
-- China has already achieved roughly half of its 18,000 kilometer goal for 2015, with 9,300 km (5,800 miles) of active high-speed track.
The Asian giant is also testing next-generation trains, which it hopes will travel at
around 310 miles per hour
, once again cutting travel time roughly in half.
The U.S., whose massively socialist
national highway project
was once perhaps the world's most ambitious and well-engineered transportation conduits, has balked at the proposal of a high-tech replacement for its aging government-owned roadways. And the private sector in the U.S. has expressed precious little interest in such a project, due to the price and low profit potential.

It's hard to say for sure just how big an economic boost high speed rail will provide China, but it's expected to bring radical new opportunities to the nation. To relate in U.S. terms, high speed rail would make commutes from Detroit to Chicago, Pittsburgh and New York City feasible for those willing to spend up to a few hours of their lives a day in transit possible, opening new job opportunities.
The U.S. has some
high speed rail plans
of its own, but the
billions put forth by the Obama administration
have been dwarfed by China's commitment, as have the program's respective successes. With the activation of the Guangzhou and Beijing bullet train conduit, one has to wonder whether we are witnessing the passing of the technological torch from the U.S. to China, and what the economic impact of that leadership transition will be.

Highway 14 Partnership appoints Beussman VP, focuses on 20-year plan
OWATONNA – New Ulm Mayor Bob Beussman was elected vice president for the U.S. Highway 14 Partnership on Monday during its annual meeting in Owatonna.
Beussman previously served on the Partnership's board of directors. He has been one of the most active public officials working to advocate for the long-sought four-lane expansion of Highway 14 between Mankato and New Ulm. The expansion is intended to end the high crash and fatality rates on the highway.
"I look forward to playing a more active role in advocating for Highway 14," said Beussman in a prepared statement, "We have about 1,000 commercial trucks that are based in New Ulm, all of which are dependent on this unsafe and inadequate two-lane road. There's no question that the delays of Highway 14 have a negative impact on our economic development."
The Partnership's primary focus for 2013 is getting the four-lane expansion of Highway 14 onto the Minnesota Department of Transportation's (MnDOT) 20-year State Highway Investment Plan. The Partnership wants to be on the plan to create pressure on MnDOT to finally finish the project. Another benefit to being placed on the plan would make Highway 14 eligible to any federal highway funds that could hypothetically be sent to Minnesota, because regulations permit only projects on MnDOT's plans to access the funds.

A 73-year-old Bexley woman who died last week of carbon-monoxide poisoning has been identified.
Patricia "Soapie" A. Hayes died on Friday at her home at 940 Chelsea Ave. She collapsed in her cellar. Her daughter found her and called 911 about 6:30 p.m.
Carbon-monoxide levels of about 600 parts per million were found when Columbus medics arrived. Normal household levels are less than 30 parts per million, the federal Environmental Protection Agency says. Levels greater than 150 can cause death.
Investigators determined that the toxic gas came from a malfunctioning boiler.
Hayes is survived by her daughter, daughter-in-law, two sisters and four grandchildren.

Fourth graders know more geography, eighth graders are about the same and 12th graders are losing ground, according to the Nation's Report Card: Geography 2010 by the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). Fewer than one third of students are proficient.
In geography, civics and U.S. history, achievement is stagnating or declining, NAEP advises.
"In particular, the pattern of disappointing results for our twelfth graders' performance across all three social science subjects should be of great concern to everyone," said David P. Driscoll, chairman of the National Assessment Governing Board, which sets policy for NAEP.
The lowest-scoring students made gains at all three grade levels, and some racial/ethnic achievement gaps narrowed.
A proficient fourth grader can recognize what prevents soil erosion, a proficient eighth grader can explain the effects of a monsoon in India and a proficient 12th grader can explain why Mali is considered overpopulated.
Some of the 12th grade questions are challenging:
The diagram above shows a profile of which continent?
- Europe
- South America
- Antarctica
- Africa
I got it right, but it was an educated guess.
This map of The World According to Americans represents the way many of us were taught as children, writes Lynne Diligent.
These maps are about feelings rather than knowledge, writes Diligent, who lives overseas.
I used to play a geography game with my father. I'd close my eyes, spin the globe and point to a place. He'd tell me about it. I loved the sound of "Addis Ababa" and "Haile Selassie," the Lion of Judah. Later, I played a German game, Weltreise, that taught me the best air, rail and shipping routes. My favorite was Montevideo to Kapstadt (Capetown) to Adelaide by boat.

Welcome to Detroit, where hopes and dreams go to die.
I didn't watch the game. So...there's not much I can say about it. Let's do bullet points instead.
- I really hope everything is OK with the Blackburns. I worry. Since we've kind of sort of adopted the Blackburns as our most favorite baseball family, we only want sparkly good happy things for them, here at Oh It's THOSE Girls.
- Target Field tours are finally for sale. I'm a little miffed that they're only offered on days when there is no home game. I'm not sure what the reasoning is...most other facilities at least offer a morning tour on gamedays. With so many Twins fans in places like Iowa, North and South Dakota, etc. who will travel to Target Field specifically FOR games, it really kind of screws them over. I drive 2 hours to games. Chances are, though I'd love to take the tour, I'm not going to waste the time or the gas to go to Target Field to NOT watch baseball. There are plenty of baseball tourists who will likely miss out on a tour too, unless they plan a trip around an off-day. Which is dumb.
- A new kind of fantasy baseball game launches tomorrow at RosterSlots.com. And I was invited to participate in the "Experts League." Hold your applause, please. It combines elements of traditional fantasy baseball with the luck-of-the-spin slot machine mentality. Tell me that doesn't sound awesome. Since you can change your roster every day, with just a few spins, it adds a little bit of excitement to your fantasy life, during the long long baseball season. Go check it out. It sounds like it could be especially fun for fantasy novices. It's free...no gambling involved.
- I need a team name for said new fantasy team. Someone think of something clever...I'm tapped out.
