Auction sounds interesting. I've never done it but it seems the fun/excitement and just the logistics of being able to do an effective auction draft would dictate that you do it LIVE, as IN-PERSON with owners facing each other in a room. Otherwise I think it would be a clusters-smuck to try and do something as complicated as an auction draft over the net. But of the three leagues that make their home here none use and auction but someone might be able to help you out. I don't know of any free leagues that allow auction drafting. I'm checking the ESPN free league software right now just to double check.
Here are the different draft methods that ESPN allows for their free leagues:
The draft is an important factor for having a successful season. Teams which begin with a strong draft will most likely find themselves in good shape for the remainder of the season. There are three draft options available for Fantasy Football: the Autopick Draft, Live Draft and Offline Draft methods. If you are drafting in a standard league, each team receives 16 players during the draft, for a total of 160 players in a 10-team league. In custom leagues, your final player total will be dependent on your roster settings.
Team owners have the option of three different draft methods:1. Autopick draft 2. Live draft 3. Offline Draft (Custom Leagues Only) So the only way to perform an AUCTION DRAFT is to do so OFF-LINE. For our league, BIDL II, we conducted the first two rounds of our rookie/veteran free agent daft off-line and will do the last two rounds on-line later this summer. It sounds like the only way to be able to do an effective auction draft would be off-line especially if you plan on using any free fantasy football software. Good luck!
I have people who I know online and are serious fantasy football players, but we can't do a real-life draft. But what I could do is put us in a chat room somewhere, and conduct the bidding there, and then enter the results manually into an online FF site.
Could someone give me the basic idea of how an auction draft is conducted? Do you go down the list of players in the order of their projected score, and just let people outbid each other? How deep do you go before you stop? Does everyone you didn't go through the process of bidding on become a free agent?

Here is a link to explain the basics and this also gives links to articles dealing with strategy of doing an auction draft.
The main page with other links.
Here is one of the stategy articles.
The Basics
In an auction-style draft, each team has $100 play money to fill his roster - typically 14 spots. The auction begins when a pre-selected team (often last place from the year before) puts a player "on the block." For example, team Suxalot bids $1 for Priest Holmes...and the bidding goes from there. At some point, there will only be one team willing to pay the final bid for Holmes, let's say $42. In the auction world, that is his free market value. Only one guy thought he was worth that much. In a draft league, everyone would like to have Priest, but only the guy who is "lucky" enough to get the first or second pick gets him. That is the beauty of an auction - the market decides which owner gets what player, not the luck of the draft.
If possible, get a non-playing friend to serve as auctioneer and another friend to keep up with the rosters and money left. Even if they cannot pronounce or spell "Vanderjagt" or "Zereoue," they can still be an auctioneer. Always give them free booze and food - it's an otherwise thankless job. Most people who ever try auction instead of draft swear by it. I have been in an auction-style league for about ten years and in my opinion, it's the only way to go. Another option I highly recommend is making your auction league a keeper league too. You can allow a set number (usually up to 4) of players from your previous year's roster to be protected by adding a set amount to the salary (usually $4 or $5). For example, I have Lee Suggs at $1 from last year and you can bet I will be keeping him at $5. While I'm bragging, I also have Rudi Johnson at $3 who is sure to be a steal this year at $7.
So that's the easy part...anyone can bid at an auction until the auctioneer proclaims, "Going once...going twice...sold." But, developing and sticking to a strategy that makes you come out the winner at your auction is where you get an edge out of the gate in your league and feel like a genius doing it. The truth is that after any auction, probably half the owners feel like they won the auction (i.e., got the most value for the $100). In theory, if they stuck with their predetermined dollar values and their strategy, they should feel like a genius - they did exactly what they thought was best to come out ahead. In reality, even a team that appears stronger than others after the auction is often not the ultimate champion. Injuries, trades, free agent moves, and pure luck more often than not will determine the winner. Still, there are some things you should know in an auction league to make sure you at least don't start out behind the pack.
Due Diligence - Do the Math
In one sense, I admire the guys who buy a magazine the night before the auction and spend the moments before the auction for free information around the room on who is injured, holding out, or just got signed to a new team. My admiration is only in their calm, not in their managing abilities. Personally, I am just not wired that way. If you are reading this article, I suspect you are also one who requires preparation. In my opinion, you have to crunch some numbers and read, read, read ...drink, sleep, ...read some more. When you start noticing the news you are reading from different sources is becoming repetitive, stop reading ...and pull out your calculator.
You first should make a list by position of all the players who will be drafted and add a few super sleeper picks near the end just so you don't forget about them near the end of the auction. Next, place a dollar value to each player. The values of all the players must add up to the total amount of money that all teams spend. For example, with 12 teams and $100 per team, it is only possible for $1200 to be spent. This sheet is your primary bidding tool at the auction. A good way to test your values is to compare different combinations of players that add up to the same amount. If you wouldn't care which combination of players you got, then your values are secure based on what you think of the players.
Another way to check values to make sure you have not over or under valued a particular position is to compare the total money spent by position and compare the percentages with last year's or prior year's auctions. If you do not have that luxury, I can tell you that generally the split ends up as follows: RBs - 42-44 percent; WRs - 29-32 percent; QBs - 20-23 percent; and 3-4 percent K and DT. Once your list is complete, it is not a bad idea to confirm that the total money value given to the top 140 players (based on a 14-man roster and $100) adds up to $1200.
Of course in a keeper league, you have to adjust for inflation. Once you have all values set, insert keeper prices next to keepers. Then, add up the difference and subtract it from the $1200. Take that number and divide it into 1200 to establish an inflation factor. Here is an example. Let's say once you insert the keeper prices and subtract the difference from 1200, you end up with 1060, so you calculate 1200/1060 = 1.1 inflation factor. That means that on average, the prices of non-keepers paid at auction should be 1.1 percent higher than the initial values. Obviously, you cannot just multiply every value by 1.1 because the extra money will not be spent in even proportions across all players. While I am sure that some guy with an abacus and a slide rule has a better way to do this, what I would do is take the extra $140 and distribute it over the about the top quarter or half of all players in each category of RB, QB and WR by the percentages shown above (let's just say RBs 43%, WRs 30% and QBs - 22%).
... The article keeps going and going on the in-depth strategy and remember, THIS IS ONLY ONE-GUY'S OPINION so you might want to puruse a few different articles on auction strategy but it sounds pretty cool.
I've never done an auction but its a totally differenty sort of strategy involved so you should read some of the different strategies that people use and decide which one might work best for you, OR if you notice someone else using a strategy then you will have a leg-up on them.
I just did a quick and dirty Yahoo search to find this page but I have seen some great auction draft articles in the past but I don't recall where I saw them but go to the link to find a few different auction strategies just on the above link. Good luck!
I have been doing an auction for nine years now and would never do a boring and unfair snake draft again. In an auction...every owner has an equal chance at any NFL player...you just have to be smart and wise enough to be able to manage your salary cap. No disrespect but drafts are for Fantasy Football sissies! We do our auction face to face and the camraderie we have reminiscing over old auctions while conducting our new one is fun.
Here is how we used to do it (this year we are trying something different).
- We have a $300 ficticious salary cap and we need to draft 17 players
- (Everyone wears a hat), Defending champ starts off the auction...
- ...introducing a player up for auction with an opening bid.
- We then go clockwise around the table increasing the bid. When an owner wants to drop out of the bidding he takes his hat off (easiest way to keep track of who is in and who is out).
- We keep going around the table until nobody wants to increase the bid and the highest bidder is awarded the player.
- The player sitting to the champ's left introduces the next player and we go back to step #3
If I had one piece of advice, it would be to find guys local to you who are willing to do an auction face to face...can't imagine doing it online.
Good luck!
BTW, we are trying a real live auctioneer this year instead of the round robin style we have done in the past...should be interesting!

Raspberry Linzer Slices
Do YOU like jam as much as I like Jam??? I don't think anyone could like jam as much as we do in this house, but . . . I could be wrong!
WE just LOVE jam. Sometimes we just have a simple supper of bread, butter and jam, which hearkens back to our childhoods . . . and we are completely happy and content with that. Other times I will bake Todd some Jam Tarts, which he just adores. Other times it may be a cake, or cookies. Today I made these delicious Raspberry Linzer Slices.
I have made Linzer Cookies many times in the past, and to be sure . . . they are just fabulous. But they do take a bit of time . . . with the rolling out, cutting, etc. Some days I am just lazy. I want the treat . . . but I don't want to do all the faffing and rolling out.
Some days I want near instant gratification and that is what these wonderful slices are . . . near instant gratification.
With their crisp buttery base . . . sweet raspberry jam filling . . . and little buttery crumbles on top, these slices satisfy completely. In fact . . .
I bet you can't eat just one! (Which also makes them pretty near dangerous!!)
*Raspberry Linzer Slices*
Makes 9 to 12
Printable Recipe
Delicious jam bars, lightly spiced, buttery and sweet. Perfect with a hot cuppa!
For the base and topping:
175g plain flour (1 3/4 cup)
50g ground rice (1/4 cup) (you could grind rice in a coffee grinder and make your own
if you can't find it to buy. You want it really find, almost a powder.)
8 TBS golden caster sugar
140g cold butter, diced (9 3/4 TBS)
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1 TBS milk
In addition:
8 TBS raspberry jam, stirred to loosen
2 tsp caster sugar
Preheat the oven to 200*C/400*F/ gas mark 6. Line a shallow 8 or 9 inch baking tin with baking parchment.
Put the flour, rice, sugar, cinnamon and cloves into a bowl, whisking well together. Drop in the butter and rub it in with yoru fingertips until fine crumbs form. Stir in the milk with a table knife. Tip three fourths of the mixture into the prepared pan, pressing it firmly into the bottom, evenly. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until golden and crisp looking.
Spoon the jam over top of the base, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the remainder of the crumbs over top and then return to the oven and bake for 5 to 10 minutes longer, until the topping is golden. Sprinkle with the 2 tsp of sugar and allow to cool completely in the tin, before cutting into squares to serve.

These look wonderful...now I don't know which to make first, the Strawberry Jam Tray Bake, The Cookies or these....ReplyDelete
I only had strawberry jam..ReplyDelete

Milwaukee, WI
Ray Brown, legendary jazz bassist and founder of the 1940's bebop quintet of Dizzy Gillespie/Charlie Parker, opened the 2002 Pabst Theater's 10th Hal Leonard Jazz Series in Milwaukee, February 16. Over 1,200 jazz patrons were mesmerized as Brown and his trio lay about two hours of jazz standards and classics inside the ornamental theater. Karriem Riggins, 26, kept wonderful time on the drum kit smoothly alternating between popping rim shots, brushes and sticks. The balancing third of the jazz trio, pianist Larry Fuller, 36, connected the melodies with his flurrying fingers, making precision strikes on the keys look effortlessly. Ray Brown, 75, was his self once more despite being off his feet for several months from knee surgery. Holding his aged, 6-foot plus double bass nearly as tall as Brown, he's back on his feet again for nearly two hours, and his technique is quite remarkable. He's performing strong, gentle rounded tones, sometimes playing intensely and thrumming with three fingers. Always gesturing nods of approval to his sidemen during songs like "Lester Leaps in" or "But Not For Me". In the end, it all got the audience standing, cheering and applauding for more, instead only one curtain call and no encore tonight as the three men gracefully thanked their audience, and Brown gesturing his hands for a cocktail and a pillow.

Find the Microsoft Volume Licensing program that enables you to meet your customers' needs.
Get an introduction to Volume Licensing
Find them—and all your licensing information—at the Microsoft Volume Licensing Center (VLSC)
Microsoft Volume Licensing programs serve organizations that acquire five or more licenses, but do not need multiple copies of the media and the documentation, and do not want to keep track of numerous individual license agreements. Volume Licensing offers the potential for substantial savings, ease of deployment, flexible acquisition, varied payment options, and other benefits, such as ongoing maintenance. Volume Licensing programs are tailored to the specific needs of you and your customers, based on program type, organization size, and market segment.
The Microsoft Enterprise Agreement offers the best value to organizations with 250 or more devices or users who want a manageable Volume Licensing program that gives them the flexibility to purchase cloud services and software licenses under one agreement in response to the changing technological landscape.
The minimum requirement for the Enterprise Agreement is changing from 250 to 500 users or devices for new commercial customers on July 1, 2016.
The Enterprise Agreement includes a subscription option that lowers initial licensing costs because customers subscribe to the rights to use Microsoft products and services instead of owning them. The Enterprise Agreement Subscription program also includes the ability to increase or decrease subscription counts on an annual basis.
Enrollments are a cost-effective way to license Microsoft solutions to meet organizational objectives. The enrollment agreement structure allows for the easy addition of new products, services, and licensing options to better support future licensing and deployment scenarios. Two major enrollments are available under an Enterprise Agreement.
The Enterprise Enrollment allows committed customers to standardize broadly on one or more user technologies from Microsoft.
The Enterprise Cloud Suite (ECS) offers the best value to Enterprise Agreement customers wanting to purchase Office 365 E3, Enterprise Mobility Suite and Windows Software Assurance Per-User and is available as a user subscription license (USL) or an add-on to the Enterprise Enrollment.
The Server and Cloud Enrollment (SCE) allows committed customers to standardize broadly on one or more of the four server and cloud technologies from Microsoft. SCE has replaced the Enrollment for Application Platform (EAP) and Enrollment for Core Infrastructure (ECI).
The Microsoft Products and Services Agreement (MPSA) is the easy way for organizations to license Microsoft cloud services and on-premises software. With the MPSA, customers can:
The MPSA enables partners to more easily sell what their customers need and maximize profitability.
MPSA resources
The Enterprise Cloud Suite offers the best value to MPSA customers wanting to purchase Office 365 E3, Enterprise Mobility Suite and Windows SA Per-User.
Microsoft Software Assurance for Volume Licensing provides a comprehensive range of benefits to help organizations plan, deploy, and use the latest Microsoft software and services. The program covers Microsoft technologies and services and includes new product version rights, training, deployment planning, and support. Software Assurance is designed to help improve productivity of IT professionals and end-users in your organization, and to help you extend the value of your technology investment.
Software Assurance provides a unique opportunity for you to connect with your customers throughout their license agreement period. Early on, you can work with your customers to help them plan their benefits use. Then, over the course of the agreement period, you can continue to build loyalty and trust by checking in with your customers to encourage them to use all of their Software Assurance benefits to deploy the latest Microsoft software to maximize productivity.
Planning services and training are high-value benefits for Software Assurance customers—and revenue-generating opportunities for you. Microsoft pays qualified partners to provide these services, so you can expand your business by incorporating them into your offerings. Deliver Software Assurance Planning Services to help customers plan a successful deployment and use the latest software. Or if you are a Learning competency partner, get paid to deliver no-cost Software Assurance technical and user training.
With a customizable platform and price advantages for volume purchasing, Open programs provide a simple, cost-effective way for your customers with fewer than 250 users or devices to acquire the latest Microsoft technology.
Open License is a good choice if your customer is a corporate, academic, charitable, or government organization that wants to pay as they go. They must have a minimum initial purchase of five software licenses for an Open License agreement, and they can acquire additional licensed products through Open License in any quantity at any time during the two-year agreement term.
Open Value is a comprehensive Volume Licensing program for small and midsize commercial and government organizations that want a flexible and affordable way to purchase on-premises licenses. Open Value is also an easy way to subscribe to select cloud-based services for the latest Microsoft technology.
Open Value Subscription provides the lowest up-front costs of the Open program options with the flexibility to reduce the total licensing costs in years when the desktop PC count declines. This option gives your customers the rights to run the software throughout their organization only during the term of the agreement with Microsoft. They also have the ability to add the single platform option to an Open Value Subscription agreement.
Effective July 1, 2016, in markets where the MPSA is available*, Microsoft will stop accepting new orders and Software Assurance renewals through existing commercial Select Plus agreements at the customers' next agreement anniversary date.
The MPSA offers a more modern licensing platform that enables customers to buy licenses for online services, software, and Software Assurance through a simpler and more flexible agreement.
*This retirement does not apply to government and academic Select Plus agreements or where the MPSA is unavailable on 1 July, 2016.

Thanks for helping!
We had another great lunch at Badlands. The wait staff provided us great service and the food was very good! Love the atmosphere and will definitely go back again!
Thanks Allen; Glad we made you a fan. its our pleasure to serve you. will see you soon.
went over lunch with high school daughter and almost was late getting her back, service was pretty efficient but getting our lunch was extremely slow
People who travel often desire to try local restaurants instead of chain, but I would not suggest giving that chance here. The food is not spectacular and this place has lost it's ambience. Badlands has for awhile now, had a problem with service whether its slow even on a slow day or rude attitude from the manager or waitress. Not...
I had my first Badlands experience last month, and I'll certainly be back soon! I highly recommend the salmon with veggies and an ice cold beer.
My wife and I took our daughter and some of her college friends out for supper. Everybody enjoyed their meal. Food came fast but had to ask a second time for some drinks that didn't show. up. Food was good and the prices were very good as well.
Service was excellent, food was delicious, waitress was very courteous and prompt, staff was kept checking if we needed anything.
The restaurant was well lit, located well but the service and food was about average. I had a bacon cheese burger and the burger was home made which was great but not overly well cooked. The fries were pretty good. The beers also tasted not very fresh and the service was relatively slow.
Chose to have lunch here as it is in a good location and has a lot of seating. Lunch was served quickly and was good. The only improvement would be with the hostess when seating. It would be helpful if they would ask type of seating prefered when someone with a walker comes in. Booths are not always easy for...

This is Smith's take on the diving watch, which was becoming popular with the top Swiss brands by the 1960s. The watch has a robust, solid stainless steel case and stainless steel strap. The movable bezel, which can be rotated to track your time underwater, is in good condition. I'm not sure how seriously this watch was intended for actual diving: although it's very well sealed against water ingress I'm not sure the rating of 20ATM is deep enough for practical diving.
This is one of the rarest of all the Smiths models, it appeared only once in their catalogues, in 1969. The movement is the excellent Smiths 27.CS with shockproofing and (unusually for Smiths) the addition of a simple calendar.
The movement has been fully serviced and the timekeeping is excellent. The case has been cleaned, but as with all out vintage watches we have left it unpolished. The original crystal has been preserved and polished, the watch comes with what I believe is the original steel strap. The watch comes with our standard 12 month guarantee.

Ruins and Old Trees
eBook (ePub)
Price: $1.25
A history of trees and old ruins that are associated with events in English history, including Gospel-Beech, the old trees in Hyde Park, Hatfield Oak, the Queen's Oak and more. In the midst of the lone forest which shadowed in ancient times a large portion of the country of the Dobuni,1 and which extended over hill and dale, far as the distant mountains of the Silures,2 and on either side the river that waters this part of Britain, stood a solitary yew. On the verge of the forest, and in places cleared of timber for the purpose, rose the conically-shaped huts of the natives; the dwelling of the chieftain was somewhat larger than the rest, and around it stood the wattled cabins of his dependents. Their arts were few and simple, and their habits those of men who were scarcely advanced beyond a savage state: corn was occasionally cultivated, but in general they lived by hunting, or fed upon the flocks which they pastured in the open country. - Excerpt from Ruins and Old...

12 Example of Electrical System …Basic Electrical System
14 1. Power Supply (AC and DC) Electricity is the movement of free electrons in a material toward an area of positive (+) charges. The conduction of those electrons is determined by the type of material. Some conduct well, while other materials prevent the movement of electrons. Electricity can take the form of static electricity, direct current (DC) electricity, or alternating current (AC) electricity.
15 What are free electrons? What determines the conduction of electricity? What are the different types of electricity?
16 Most electrons are bound in orbit around atoms. But in many substances, there are electrons that are not connected to any atom and are roaming freely throughout the material. These electrons may have been knocked free in the creation of ions or may be the result of a collision of a high energy particle, such as from radioactive materials or cosmic rays. Free electrons Electrons have a negative (-) electrical charge and protons have a positive (+) charge. Atoms with an excess of electrons are called negative ions and those that are missing electrons in the shells or orbits are called positive ions. An electric force field causes particles with opposite charges to attract each other. A buildup of opposite charges creates an electric potential. Release of the potential energy results in the movement of free electrons, which is called electricity.
17 This helium (He) model displays two valence electrons located in its outermost energy level. Helium is a member of the noble gases and contains two protons, neutrons, and electrons. Proton charge= x Coulomb Elec. charge= x Coulomb Valence electrons are the electrons contained in the outermost, or valence, electron shell of an atom. Valence electrons are important in determining how an element reacts chemically with other elements: The fewer valence electrons an atom holds, the less stable it becomes and the more likely it is to react.
18 Solid metals are good conductors of electricity, because electrons are allowed to move freely throughout the material. Copper and gold are some of the best conductors of electricity. Although iron is a good conductor, iron oxide (rust) is not. In the solid state, the atoms of metals are held in place and only vibrate. This allows free electrons to roam about the material.
19 Free electrons among metal atoms
20 In semiconductorssuch as materials used in computer chipsthe electrons have limitations to their movement, such as only being allow to move in one direction or in one plane. Nonconductors inhibit the movement of electrons within the material. But they often do allow electrons and ions to collect on their surfaces. Examples of nonconductors or electrical insulators are: Plastic, Rubber, Glass, Most metal oxides (like rust), Air, Oil, Pure, de-ionized water Gases are not good conductors of electricity because of the distances between atoms. Electrons have difficulty moving through gases, unless the gas is ionized or heated to higher temperatures.

24 Common types of electricity are static electricity, direct current (DC) electricity, and alternating current (AC) electricity. Types of electricity Static electricity Static electricity is the collection of free electrons on the surface of a material, giving it a negative (-) charge. Atoms on the surface of another material that have lost one more of their electrons are called positive (+) ions. Often the electrons are pulled from the atoms on one surface and allowed to collect on the surface of another material. Static electricity is caused by rubbing the two different materials together. Since opposite charges attract, there is a tendency for the electrons to attract toward the positive ions, resulting in static electricity.
25 In a metal or other conducting material, electrons will flow from an area of an excess negative (-) charges to an area of positive (+) charges. This flow of electrons through the conductor is electricity. DC and AC electricity If the opposite charges are constant, such as with the terminals in a battery, the current is called direct current or DC electricity, because it is going one direction. If the terminals constantly switch their polarity from (+) to (-) and back again, the direction of the electrons alternates and is call alternating current or AC electricity. This is the type of electricity that comes from the outlets in most homes. DC can be created by a battery or DC generator. AC requires an AC generator for its creation. DC is used in many devices that do not require high voltages for their operation, such that batteries are used for power. AC can be used in higher voltages. It has the advantage of being able to have its voltage easily changed to a higher or lower level. AC is required for many electronic devices.
26 Electricity is the movement of free electrons in a material. It moves the best though metals. Static electricity is the collection of electrons and positive ions on the surface of a material--usually a non-conductor. Direct current electricity moves in one direction and usually is created in batteries. Alternating current electricity is most commonly used in homes and can have its voltage changed to suit the need. Conclusion
27 Electric Current Electric current is the rate of charge flow past a given point in an electric circuit, measured in coulombs/second which is named amperes. In most DC electric circuits, it can be assumed that the resistance to current flow is a constant so that the current in the circuit is related to voltage and resistance by Ohm's law.
28 Current Current indicates the amount of electrons passing through the wire and is measured in amperes or amps for short. For some reason, they use I to indicate current instead of a different letter. The unit symbol for amps is A, as in 2.0A. Electrical current is similar to the rate of water flowing through a hose. Voltage Voltage is the electrical potential energy and is measured in volts. A good analogy is to think of a water hose. There is water pressure or potential energy on the other side of the faucet or outlet valve. Once you open the faucet, the pressure causes the water to rush through the hose. The unit symbol for volts is V, as in 110V.
29 Electrical resistance can be thought of as the "friction" on the movement of electrons in a wire. Resistance is measured in ohms, and the unit symbol for it is the Greek letter omega, Ω. Thus 3 ohms is often written as 3 Ω. Resistance Most devices in an electrical circuit can be considered resistors, including light bulbs and electric motors. Even the wire itself provides some resistance. Just as you get some heat from friction, electrical resistance also results in heat. That is why the light bulb filament gets hot and glows. Following the water hose analogy, resistance is similar to the friction inside the hose. But also, the resistance increases with a narrower hose, just like a thin copper wire has more electrical resistance than a thick wire.

34 Ohm's Law states that in a simple electrical circuit, the voltage equals the electrical current times the resistance. (The current flowing in a circuit is directly proportional to the voltage applied and inversely proportional to the resistance at a constant temperature). where: V is the voltage in volts I is the current in amperes or amps R is the resistance in ohms IR is I times R V = IR Ohm's Law for Electrical Circuits
35 V=IR V IR …Basic Electrical Laws – Ohms Law
36 Example: How many amperes of current are in the circuit below? Vs R I = Vs R = Using Ohms law: 100 V 20 Ω =5 A 100 V 20 Ω
37 Examples: 1. An electric bulb uses 0.5 A of current with voltage generated being 120 V. Determine the value of resistance. 2. If a current of 0.5 A flows through resistor of 15 Ω, calculate the voltage drop across the resistor. …Basic Electrical Laws – Ohms Law 1. Ans; R = V/I = 120/0.5 = 240 Ω 2. Ans; V = IR = 0.5 x 15 = 7.5 V
38 More Examples: 3. (i) For the circuit shown, determine current flowing and power absorbed by the resistor if the resistance is 1 kΩ and voltage across it is 10 V (ii) If the current flowing through the circuit is 3A and power absorbed is 72 W, determine the resistor value and voltage across it. …Basic Electrical Laws – Ohms Law
39 Direct current or DC electricity is the continuous movement of electrons from negative to positive through a conducting material such as a metal wire. A DC circuit is necessary to allow the current or steam of electrons to flow. In a circuit, the direction of the current is opposite the flow of electrons. DC electricity in a circuit consists of voltage, current and resistance. The flow of DC electricity is similar to the flow of water through a hose. Batteries and DC generators are the sources to create DC electricity. Voltage, Current and Resistance
40 The electric power in watts associated with a complete electric circuit or a circuit component represents the rate at which energy is converted from the electrical energy of the moving charges to some other form, e.g., heat, mechanical energy, or energy stored in electric fields or magnetic fields. For a resistor in a D C Circuit the power is given by the product of applied voltage and the electric current : Power (watts) = Voltage (volts) x Current (amperes) DC Power Power consumed = kilowatt hours (kWh) x charge (dollars, RM, etc) P = VI
41 Computer : 500 watts (12 hours) TV : 400 watts (5 hours) Lighting : 3 x 15 watt = 45 watts (6 hours) Others : 100 watts (2 hours) Calculating your electric bill Power consumed : (500 x 12) + (400 x 5) + (45 x 6) + (100 x 2) = 8470 wh = 8.47kWh Electric bill per month : 8.47 kWh x RM 0.218/kWh x 30 = RM P = VI
42 DC Circuit Water Analogy
43 A battery is analogous to a pump in a water circuit. A pump takes in water at low pressure and does work on it, ejecting it at high pressure. A battery takes in charge at low voltage, does work on it and ejects it at high voltage. pressureworkchargevoltage Voltage-Pressure Analogy
44 Connecting a battery to an appliance through a wire is like using a large pipe for water flow. Very little voltage drop occurs along the wire because of its small resistance. You can operate most appliances at the end of an extension cord without noticeable effects on performance. Current-Flow rate Analogy

at someone's wedding? No way. Never. It's THEIR day.... do it afterwards.
No way!!!
No! We waited at SILs wedding, hubby didn't want the attention from his little sister. He did however tell his mum in the car ride home as she lives in a different state to us and wanted her to know before flying out the next morning. Other SIL was mad at me for sitting in my seat all night not talking, I had to keep going to the bathroom to chuck!

Lucy Alys (July '06)

Pippi Violet (oct '11)
No, and I think it's very rude and self-centred to draw attention from the married couple and onto yourself.
Why can't you wait until THE NEXT DAY at least?
I think it depends how it's done.
Interrupting the speeches, grabbing the microphone and announcing "guess what everyone - I'm PREGNANT!!" = wrong.
Mentioning it to your friends while chatting at the reception = perfectly fine IMO.

We should add a bunch of tests with queries involving parens, to verify that they behave as expected. Both tests involving parens as intended grouping for boolean precedence as well as parens not intended as boolean sugar but as plain text pasted from somewhere: {noformat} q=(foo OR title:bar) AND (title:foo OR bar) q=Meeting at noon (room:Auditorium) {noformat} The first should obey the instructed boolean order, while the last should return docs with the literal token "room:Autirium" in any of the qf fields. The key goal of dismax is to be very robust so people can paste in all kind of garbage, and get matches. So if the query parses as valid boolean logic, that should be used. > eDismax: A fielded query wrapped by parens is not recognized > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: SOLR-3377 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-3377 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Bug > Components: query parsers > Affects Versions: 3.6 > Reporter: Jan Høydahl > Assignee: Bernd Fehling > Fix For: 4.0, 3.6.1 > > Attachments: SOLR-3377.patch, SOLR-3377.patch, SOLR-3377.patch, SOLR-3377.patch > > > As reported by "bernd" on the user list, a query like this > {{q=(name:test)}} > will yield 0 hits in 3.6 while it worked in 3.5.
