In the Depths of Misery
By: Silver pup
Part One
Murtagh crouched down lower as he watched the forest beneath him. The sky rumbled with thunder and lightening as the storm continued barbarous as it had been for the past three hours. He was getting rather irked with it actually, since he had little cover standing on a high branch in one of the many trees. In fact, his black and red clothes were soaked along with his boots and gloves, and he barely suppressed a shiver from the cold.
How long had he been kneeling here? Thirty minutes? An hour? He had lost count after twenty minutes had gone by, finally getting bored with simply counting the time away. He had debated for a little while about contacting Thorn, but finally came to the decision not to since they were going to be meeting up soon.
Their mission had been finished not to long ago; they had located the small base the Varden had been using (which it turned out to be a ditch that extended out underground a few feet, something he found pathetic, but then again, their main base had been in a mountain so he really shouldn't be surprised). It had then taken most of the day to capture the leaders and the ones who seemed worth interrogating before killing the ones who refused to surrender.
Hunting Rebels was annoying, but Murtagh wasn't complaining. After all it was better than sitting in the palace with Galbatorix. Just being in the same room with the older man sent a chill down his spine, and ignited that burning hatred he held for him. He much preferred to be far away from the psychotic king, and for as long as possible. That was why he always volunteered for missions that would require him to leave the palace and never objected when Galbatorix sent him on one of his many mundane tasks.
Of course, standing in a tree in the middle of a thunderstorm is not what I really had in mind, the brunette thought starkly. Still, it could be worse…
And it was.
Murtagh blinked his eyes slowly as he stared up at the tree he had just been standing in. That was before the branch broke and he came tumbling down with it. He groaned in frustration, and slowly sat up and rubbed his back. It didn't hurt really – he been through worse – but he had fallen into a dark puddle of water and mud, and now his entire back and hair were covered in mud.
With a string of creative curses, Murtagh stood up straight and slowly began to wipe some of the mud off his clothes and hair. He was partially successful since the rain helped by washing it away, but much to his distaste, it began soaking into his clothes.
"Oh, good enough," he finally mumbled before walking away. Like hell he was going to hide in another tree and risk falling again, not when he could simply find a cave or something and hide there. Besides, he doubted that there would be any other little rebels crossing his path anytime soon, so there was really no point in hiding anymore.
The rain continued to pound against his body and the wind added to the cold temperature, but Murtagh ignored it, for it was a weakness to acknowledge that he was cold. He was a warrior and warriors didn't have weaknesses or flaws. His father had drilled that tiny fact into his mind for years and now he believed it.
Or at least he used to.
Murtagh found that since Galbatorix captured him, his beliefs had slowly changed. Actually since he met Eragon he had slowly began to question if the verdicts he once held onto with a strong dedication were right. And now, thanks to Galbatorix, he had begun to pick away at the flaws in his ideals until he had nothing left. His doubt and uncertainty were slowly driving him insane.
The young man pushed away a low branch as he carefully stepped over another puddle. When did his life become so unstable? Was it the moment he decided to run away? Or when he became Galbatorix personal slave? Or perhaps when he discovered Eragon was his brother? Of course it could also had been Eragon's rejection…
No! Eragon has nothing to do with this! That brat means nothing to me damnit! he thought viciously, and subconsciously curled his hands up into tight fists.
His brother seemed to keep popping up in his mind these days no matter how much he tried to ignore the younger teen. It baffled Murtagh why he couldn't stop thinking about his brother. He had never felt such an attachment to another person since his mother had passed away. Thorn was important to him, yes, but Eragon wasn't his partner, he was his brother.
Brother. It was nothing special, just another relative. Well, okay, maybe he wasn't just another relative, but still he wasn't that important, right? It wasn't like he had done anything for Murtagh other then become the first true friend he ever had. And, okay, the younger boy did help Murtagh in many ways and hell, Eragon even mourned for him when he thought Murtagh was dead. But none of that really counted, right?
The words sounded fake even to him.
"What the hell is wrong with me?" Murtagh asked out loud as he stopped and looked around. That's when the brunette blinked, and realized he didn't recognize the area. In fact, now that he stopped and thought about it, he had no idea where he had began walking to in the first place. So that meant he was…
"Lost. I'm lost in a freaking forest in the middle of a thunderstorm. Great, just great." he muttered with a nasty scowl.
Above him, the sky rumbled in agreement, and Murtagh couldn't help but get the feeling that someone up there was laughing at him.
The rain continued falling on him, and Murtagh was sure that if he wasn't soaked before then he was now. He was drenched to the very bone, and his fingers and toes had gone numb a while back. He had been walking for ages it seemed, but much to his discomfort it seemed that he was going in nothing but circles. Everything looked the same, and Murtagh could have sworn he had seen that same tree five times already.
Of course, I could be delirious considering the fact that all this rain and cold weather has most likely gotten me sick. And that would also explain why the ground keeps tilting, the brunette thought as leaned against a boulder to catch his breath.
In his mind, the logical part of him was urging him to contact Thorn. But a bigger part of him (whom he labeled his independent nature though most would argue that it was simply his male ego) was dead set against it. He didn't need anyone's help, including Thorn. He had survived this long and had faced much harder challenges in his life, so finding his way out of one little forest should be a breeze!
Then why are you still here? Shouldn't you have found your way out by now? A nasty little voice whispered in his mind. Murtagh had found out long ago that this nasty little voice in his mind (which Thorn kept pointing out wasn't really normal) loved to point out things he had done wrong. The sad thing was that it was usually right.
"Oh, shut up," he grunted out loud and pushed off the boulder began walking again.
He hadn't been walking very long when he heard it. Gasps of pain that caught his full attention, and he froze where he stood. Now what the hell could that be? An animal perhaps? Or some lost rebel or soldier? And were they injured?
Murtagh cocked his head to the side and listened closer. He could faintly hear moans and hissing as the person or thing shifted. But that was all he could hear before the thunder blocked everything else out.
Hmm, what to do, what to do. Should I be a nice guy and help them, thus risk the chance of being eaten if it's a hungry animal, or attacked if it's a rebel. Or I could be myself and just ignore them and walk away, the brunette pondered.
"Pfff, this rain must be leaking into my brain," he muttered as he began to stalk towards the unknown person or thing.
Quietly the young man pushed back some vines as he looked to see who or what was injured. What he got was a minor heart attack.
He didn't realize he had spoken out loud until Eragon's head snapped up. The boy was sitting on the muddy ground cradling his left arm, while his left leg was stretched out in front of him. His clothes were torn, dirty, bloody and he had numerous scratches and wounds marking his skin, along with a very large and nasty gash on his chest. His face was pale and there were dark circles under his eyes, and he was panting softly. All in all he looked like hell, but not surprisingly Murtagh noticed that his dark eyes still burned with an inner fire that seemed to be a part of what made Eragon who he was.
"Murtagh! What the hell are you doing here?" Eragon snarled as he glared at his older brother.
"Admiring the view," he answered dryly, rolling his eyes. "Why do you think I'm here, Eragon? To hunt down simple rebels, of course. I thought I got all of them too, but it seems one little rebel got away."
Eragon stiffened as Murtagh began to walk towards him, and struggled to move farther back against the tree he was under. But to his relief and suspicion the older boy stopped about a foot away from him, and simply stared at him with a thoughtful look.
"What?" he snapped, uneasy about the way his brother was staring at him.
Murtagh smiled. "It seems my baby brother went out and got himself injured, and now he is stuck in the forest all alone. Probably from trying to be the hero again…"
For a moment, Eragon could have sworn that the words were said in an affectionate tone, but then quickly dismissed the idea. Murtagh didn't care about him or anyone else for that matter. The friend he had known was dead the moment he joined old King Psycho and his twisted dragon. The man before him was simply a stranger using his brother's corpse and masquerading as Murtagh.
Reassured that the man in front of him was the enemy, Eragon spoke again in a chilly voice, "What do you want, traitor?"
"Nothing you can possibly offer," Murtagh muttered.
Eragon stared at him in confusion. "What? What is that supposed to mean?"
"Nothing," Murtagh said shaking his head. "It's not important. Now, I am very curious to know why exactly you are sitting in the middle of a forest during a thunder storm, looking as if you've been reincarnated as a rag."
"Why the hell should I tell you?" Eragon questioned.
Murtagh walked a little closer and kneeled down in front of the dithery young man. He smiled in a way that was both threatening and creepy, though mostly threatening, and said softly, "Because, little brother, I haven't forgotten the last time we met, and unlike you I am more than ready to finish our little fight. Now do you really want me to start up old business?"
Eragon took in a quick a breath. He knew Murtagh would most likely follow through with his threat, and he knew there was no way he could defend himself. The battle from earlier had taken its toll on his body, and he could barely stand with out leaning against something for support. His magical levels weren't so good either, considering he had used up all his strength healing Saphira. No, he couldn't fight his brother so the only option left was to try and keep Murtagh calm, while figuring out a way to make him go away.
"I was helping establish the new base when we were attacked. Everyone is dead except for Saphira and I, but Saphira was badly hurt. I healed her the best I could and left to find help," he finally answered honestly, but still trying to hold back from giving away too much information.
Murtagh nodded but stayed silent and continued to stare at him calculating. Finally he spoke after a few tense minutes, "I see. And considering the state you're in now, you're probably to weak to move, huh?"
At Eragon's nod he continued, "So you also must know the way out of here, right?"
Eragon looked at him in bewilderment. He nodded cautiously and watched the other with keen eyes.
Murtagh ignored his paranoid behavior and continued speaking. "Then you, little rebel, are in luck. I need your help in escaping this stupid forest, and if you help me then I'll assist you also in getting out."
Eragon stared at him. "What? Wait, do you mean you're lost? You, the great and powerful Murtagh lost in one little forest?"
Murtagh scowled. "So what? Look, it's not my fault! I've never been to this region before, and I'm not like one of those tree-hugging elves that can connect with anything that's alive, okay? Now do we have a deal or what?"
"Yeah, sure," Eragon said, trying to hold back a snicker. But then he got serious again. "Wait, what's the catch?"
"No catch. You help me, I help you, and then we go our separate ways and never mention this again. I can take a vow if you're still uncertain," Murtagh said, standing up.
Eragon nodded his head slowly. "No, no vow, I believe you. And I agree, but don't think that I trust you or anything. Be aware that I'm watching you and everything you do, and if I feel threatened then I'll leave you here. Got it?"
Murtagh shrugged. "Sure, deal. Now let's go before this rain leaks more into my brain and begins to make me think I'm a woman or something."

Co-Chairman, James Friend stated, "Our organization is very excited with the prospect of returning drag racing to Kansas City and ending the recent deadly street racing by providing a safe racing venue for our city's youth. It's been a long difficult search but with a number of exciting location possibilities under consideration we are anxious to begin narrowing the discussions leading all of the racers and racing fans to a new racing home."
The Race To The Future organization is an all volunteer board of racers, sponsors and industry professionals joined together to actively seek a solution to the demand for drag racing in the Kansas City area. The R2TF organization was formed shortly after the sudden closing of Kansas City International Raceway in November 2011. The R2TF board recognizes the urgent need of the entire Kansas City metropolitan area to bring an end to the illegal and lethal street racing that has again reemerged once KCIR was closed. Interestingly, KCIR was originally opened in 1967 by a drag racer that was compelled into action to end the muscle car street racing that was endangering the public and Kansas City's youth.

This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/815,965, filed Jun. 23, 2006, which is incorporated herein by reference.
This invention relates to wireless transmission of power to a data gathering device equipped with a power receiver, power storage device, and a data transmitter.
Wireless devices are usually powered by batteries. Since batteries have a finite life, they need to be replaced from time to time. But replacing batteries in wireless devices that are hard to access can be difficult and costly. Furthermore, batteries can fail at inopportune, unpredictable times. In applications where temporary outages of remote devices are not acceptable, batteries must be replaced preventively on a regular basis. The problem is especially troublesome for remote RF receivers because they must be on continuously in order to be able to receive a transmission. When the remote device includes a transmitter, the need to preserve battery life can often constrain the way in which the device is used. For example, the interval between transmissions may be lengthened, and transmission power may be lowered. Although this can prolong battery life, it can reduce the utility of the remote wireless device.
The described embodiment provides power to a wireless remote unit without the need for brushes, slip rings, or other physical connections. Power is transferred via electromagnetic parasitic transfer to a remote unit that is equipped with circuits for sensing, acquiring, storing, and transmitting data that is gathered at the remote unit.
In general, in one aspect the invention features a wireless system that, when in operation, is coupled to an RF field transmitted by a power-emitting master unit. The system comprises: an antenna; an electrical energy storage unit connected to the antenna, wherein the energy storage unit receives energy via electromagnetic coupling of the antenna with the RF field, at least a part of the received energy being stored in the energy storage unit; and an electronics package powered solely by the received energy, the electronics package including a sensor, a processor that is capable of acquiring data from the sensor, and a transmitter connected to the processor and to the antenna, wherein the energy storage unit is capable of storing sufficient received energy to supply power for the transmitter to transmit a message wirelessly via the antenna, the message containing data acquired by the processor from the sensor.
Other embodiments include one or more of the following features. The wireless system's energy storage unit is capable of storing sufficient energy to further power the processor to perform at least one of the functions of acquiring data from the sensor, formatting a message containing data acquired from the sensor, and shutting the processor down. The sensor is an analog sensor and acquiring the data from the sensor includes analog to digital conversion of the data. The processor includes instructions in firmware, the instructions implementing a finite state machine when executed on the processor. The finite state machine includes a data acquisition state, and a data transmission state. The state machine further includes at least one of an RF detection state, a message formatting state, and a system shut-down state. The instructions executing on the processor cause the finite state machine to enter the data acquisition state when a level of RF activity in the antenna exceeds a predetermined power-on level. The instructions cause the finite state machine to exit the data acquisition state when a level of RF activity in the antenna falls below a predetermined power-off level. The wireless system is capable of moving along a path, the path being constrained such that the RF field strength is greater than a threshold RF field strength over substantially all of the path, the threshold RF field strength being determined in part by one or more antenna specifications and by power requirements of the electronics package. The power-emitting master unit includes an elongated antenna for generating the RF field and the path is a straight line path, the elongated antenna having a length approximately equal to the length of the straight line path. The transmitter uses at least one of on-off keying modulation and frequency modulation. The wireless system further includes a receiver connected to the processor, the receiver being powered by the energy storage unit, the receiver being capable of receiving RF transmitted instructions for execution on the processor.
In general, in another aspect, the invention features a system including a master unit having a master unit antenna and a master unit electronics package, the master unit electronics package capable of generating an RF field via the master unit antenna; and a wireless system as described above, the wireless system being electromagnetically coupled to the RF field generated by the master unit via the master unit antenna. In some embodiments, the master electronics package includes a master unit transmitter for transmitting RF via the master antenna and for powering the wireless unit, and a receiver for receiving transmissions from the wireless unit.
In general, in yet another aspect, the invention features methods for gathering data from a wireless system using the systems described above.
The details of one or more embodiments of the invention are set forth in the accompanying drawings and the description below. Other features, objects, and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the description and drawings, and from the claims.
The described embodiment is a system for transmitting power via RF parasitic power transfer from a transmitting coil connected to a master unit to a receiving coil connected to a wireless remote unit. The master unit is powered by an external source, but the remote unit has no source of power other than what it receives via electromagnetic coupling with the master unit. The remote unit includes a sensor for measuring data of interest, a processor in communication with the sensor for controlling the sensor, formatting the message, and controlling data transmission, and a transmitter for sending the acquired data back to the master unit or to another receiving unit.
Master unit 102 also includes circuitry for receiving and processing transmissions from remote unit 108. The transmissions are picked up by antenna 104, and converted into digital form by receiver 210, e.g., a 13.56 MHz On-Off Key (OOK) receiver. Receiver 210 sends the decoded OOK data on to master unit processor 212, which packages and manipulates the received data for forwarding on to an external computer for further processing, storing and outputting. As described below in connection with
The sequencing of the charging and data acquisition cycle referred to above is shown in
As soon as master antenna coil 104 starts transmitting, remote antenna coil 106 receives power by electromagnetic parasitic power transfer and charges capacitors in energy harvesting unit 302. Once the capacitors are sufficiently charged, energy harvesting unit 302 starts delivering power at 1.8 VDC to the circuits of remote unit 108, including processor 306. In the described embodiment, processor 306 consumes about 80 microwatts. Once processor 306 has started up, its driving oscillator has settled and it has configured its input/output ports and peripherals, the processor enters the detection phase. In this phase, the processor checks that the remote unit is still receiving RF, i.e., that the received generator transmission corresponds to a genuine data collection cycle, and not to interference or some other transient RF signal. If the processor finds that RF is no longer being received, it skips the data acquisition cycle and proceeds to shut itself down. If, on the other hand, RF is still being received, the processor determines that a genuine data capture cycle can begin, and the data acquisition phase starts, shown as event B in
During the data acquisition phase, processor 306 acquires sensor data from sensor 304. For sensors that output analog data, the processor performs analog to digital conversion of the sensor signals while reading in and storing the data. For digital sensors, processor 306 manages signal timing and reading of the digital input port. Data acquisition continues for as long as the remote unit receives RF transmission from the master unit. At point C, when the processor detects that the energy received by the harvesting unit drops below a predetermined level, it stops acquiring data and starts formatting a message containing the data (event C in
When message formatting is complete, shown as event D in
Since no power is received by remote unit 108 after the generator RF transmission stops, the remote unit must store enough energy during the detection and data acquisition phases to power the message formatting, data transmission, and receiver shut-down phases. For a given electronics package in remote unit 108 (i.e., sensor 304, processor 306, and transmitter 308), this requirement places constraints on the minimum transfer of electromagnetic power to the remote unit, and on the energy storage capacity of energy harvesting unit 302.
Remote unit processor 306 includes firmware that implements an event-driven finite state machine. The state machine has five states that occur in a fixed sequence: detection, data acquisition, message formatting, data transmission, and shut-down. Remote unit 108 recognizes two states of master unit 102: an "on" state corresponding to coupled RF activity above a high, "power-on" level; and "off" state corresponding to coupled RF activity below a low, "power-off" level. The master unit controls the start-up of the remote unit's state machine via the state of the master unit's activity, i.e., turning on the generator RF power at master antenna 106 causes the remote unit to start up; turning off the generator RF power causes the state machine to exit the data acquisition state and move into the message formatting state.
We now describe the application of the described embodiment to the monitoring of the condition of a ball screw assembly, such as that illustrated in
Ball screw antenna 506 is mounted on the side of the ball jack assembly facing the master unit antenna. Master antenna 502 has an elongated shape, with its long dimension running parallel to the jack screw. This arrangement ensures that the gap between it and remote unit antenna 506 does not change appreciably as ball jack 504 moves up and down the jack screw. As a result, remote unit antenna 506 maintains consistent electromagnetic coupling with master unit antenna 502 throughout its range of motion. Consistent coupling is needed both to provide adequate power to the electronics housed within the ball jack assembly, as well as to prevent false responses by the ball jack's receiver. For example, if at some point during the motion of the ball screw the coupled power drops below a level corresponding to the predetermined "power-off" level, the remote unit in the ball jack assembly would interpret this as the signal to stop acquiring data and would prematurely terminate data acquisition. The gap between master antenna 502 and ball screw antenna 506 is about � inch or less.
One important measure of the condition of a ball screw assembly is the rate at which ball bearings move within the assembly ball path housings as a function of the screw's angular speed. A change in this rate can indicate wear in the bearing, alerting technicians that the bearing needs to be serviced or replaced. In order to monitor ball bearing movement, ball jack 504 includes embedded sensors (not shown), each sensor detecting the passage of ball bearings past a particular point within one of ball paths. Also housed within ball jack assembly 504 are an energy harvesting unit that receives power from antenna 506 and powers all the remote circuits, a processor connected to the sensor, and a transmitter connected to the processor. The arrangement of components of the electronics package housed within the ball jack assembly corresponds to that of the remote unit shown in
When the flap motor power is turned on to move the flap, the data acquisition cycle shown in
The techniques described above can broadly be applied to the monitoring or gathering of data from any module that cannot easily be fitted with wires, slip rings, brushes, or other physical power connections. This situation often arises when the module moves relative to its surroundings. In addition to the ball screw assembly application described above, another example is the measuring of the vibration of a turning shaft, in which the wirelessly powered unit includes an accelerometer or strain gauge mounted on the shaft. Examples of such shafts include gear and transmission shafts in ships.
Variations of the techniques described above include using a single master unit to transfer power to multiple wireless data-gathering units. This requires the use of a multiple access protocol, such as the "Slotted Aloha" protocol promulgated by Intel Corporation. This protocol involves the use of timing slots, with each remote unit being assigned a particular time slot in which to transmit its data back to the master unit. Another technique requires the master unit to broadcast the address of a selected remote unit, causing the selected remote unit to transmit its data back to the master unit.
An application that uses a single master unit to transfer power to multiple remote units and to receive data back from each of them is the measurement of temperature and pressure in aircraft wheels. Most commercial aircraft have more than one wheel on each wheel strut. A master unit mounted to the wheel strut adjacent to the wheels communicates wirelessly with parasitically charged remote modules housed within each of the wheels.
Other embodiments include separating the signal to start the remote unit data acquisition cycle from the onset of RF power transmission from the master unit's generator antenna. In order to accomplish this, the master unit is equipped with its own OOK transmitter, and can issue an instruction via antenna 104 to start the monitoring at an arbitrary time, or upon the occurrence of an event or condition detected by the master unit or by the remote unit. Similarly, the termination of a data acquisition phase can be decoupled from the cessation of CW RF broadcasts, and can occur at an arbitrary time, including a time associated with an event or condition occurring either at the master unit or at the remote unit. The data transmissions from the parasitically powered remote unit can be received by one or more units other than the master unit that transmits the power. Remote unit transmitter 308 and corresponding master unit receiver 210 can be FM modulated units, which increases cost but reduces the risk of interference. Any modulation scheme can be used for the data transmission, though for commercial applications, complying with regulatory requirements of the frequency band being used limits the options. The transmitter/receiver can use frequencies other than 13.56 MHz, including 135 KHz, 6.78 MHz, 27.125 MHz, 915 MHz, 5.8 GHz, 24.1 GHz, and others that are permitted in the jurisdiction where the unit is to be operated. In systems having multiple remote, parasitically powered units, the master unit can use a different transmit/receive frequency to communicate with each of the remote units. In addition to adding header and messaging information and checking for errors, remote processor 306 can add error correcting information to the data message, as well as perform other processing tasks. Such tasks can include data manipulation, such as computing an average value of the data collected during a data acquisition cycle, and calibrating or correcting the acquired data based on a locally measured parameter, such as temperature.

We took Harley for his usual walk and while checking out a new area of the park, we encountered some ducklings near one of the lakes.

You purchased your TT because its a reputation for performance and European styling struck a chord inside you; so why would you be okay with second rate when it comes to the highest quality auto parts? Anyone who owns a Audi knows that when it comes to repairing their car, truck, or SUV only the absolute best replacement parts will do. Obviously, you bought your TT because you understood you would be getting best-in-class service and dependability both rolled up into one automobile. The vehicle in your driveway symbolizes the best in class when it comes to all the vehicles in today's marketplace.
Reducing NVH (noise, vibration, harshness) is the responsibility of quality engine and chassis components. On every car and truck, including your Audi TT, are a set of motor mounts under your engine block. Your Audi TT motor mounts are composed of a metal bracket or sleeve that will bolt to the subframe assembly, and a rubber or urethane bushing protects the chassis from excess vibration by absorbing or dampening it. Your engine mounts will probably not look like ones found on other vehicles, but their function remains the same.
Don't let a broken Engine & Motor Mount spell the end of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't risk lowering its resale value by installing anything but the best replacement parts. When your Audi needs a new replacement Engine & Motor Mount, there's no need to go somewhere besides the authority, Car Parts Discount. Make all your future car parts purchases at carpartsdiscount.com and realize incredible savings on all your upcoming repairs. Need 2009, 2008, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002, 2001, 2000 Audi TT Engine & Motor Mount parts? We've got them right here.

Your Ma, so sick...Mature
James sits restless in car rides, and he began dragging his finger on the dashboard of Chealse's dashboard.
"Cut that out, James." Chealse asks, watching him write something short, but clear.
"I aint hurtin' nothin." James retorts.
Miranda leans forward, "Were going to get the wood and build the fire by the pond on mabeline, but not pick anyone up until later."
"James, I said quit." Chealse is beginning to get agitated.
Chealse's truck is actually her Dad's, but he died a long time ago, and her mother gave it to her when she turned fourteen. Since her father died, Chealse and her mother have had to make up for a man missing in their lives. She has learned a lot about how people love you, and how they don't. Chealse also knows that when things get under her skin, to just let it go. But letting go has never been her strength.
Chealse swats James' hand and the swatting noise makes Miranda jump. Miranda's squeel frightens Chealse. She doesn't have a seatbelt to keep her from being thrown into James' and Miranda's lap as the wheel slips from her hands. The momentum forces them all to one side.
"Chealse, the wheel!" Miranda squeels again and reaches to keep them from swerving off the road.
Despite Miranda's efforts, she couldn't stop the four burning cylinders from pulling them into the trees and directly through the path that would take them to the pond. Their arms and legs bounce around in the truck as it jumps through bumps and slides up and down tree stumps. Eventually, the truck comes to a jolting stop, throwing the three into the windshield, but not breaking it. The engine stops, but they could still hear the pistons and fan moving, as well as the hissing of the belt. Chealse and Miranda attempt open the two doors, but Miranda's is jammed shut by a large branch that had fallen from the magnolia beside them.
"James," Miranda coughs, and nudges him, "James go, my door aint openin'."
James starts crawling across the worn seats and slides down into the dirt and pine needles. Miranda crawls out and lands on her feet in front of james. Chealse is squating a few paces away from the truck, her hands wound into her dark red hair.
"No way." Chealse repeats, quietly, "No, no, no..."
"It's okay Chealse," Miranda tidys up her dress and hair, "It's a quick fix."
"No way." She repeats, and stands up and drops her arms to her side, "I can't tell momma."
James sits by the truck, resting his back against the door, "If we can fix it, you won't need to."
Miranda gently grabs Chealse's hand and suggests, "Why don't we head back to my house and think about a way to get the truck moving again."
"I aint goin no where." James sits and throws his arms up and rests his hands behind his head.
The two girls leave and slowly after attempting to bring him as well. They soon disappear behind the trees, and continue walking down the road without looking back. James drops his arms and exhales. The world around him is slowly spinning and things are getting closer and losing their color. Between two tall pines stands a figure, watching. His eyes open wide and there stands a woman, dressed in ragged aprons and a gown. her hair is bright grey, and her skin is loose. One hand rests on her waist, and the other holding a wooden cane. James lifts himself up with his arms and one leg. He finds that one of his legs was hurt in the wreck, and cannot hold weight. He recalls that night he heard someone walking behind him, and questions start running through his head. Only one finds it's way out.
"Who are you?" James demands.
The woman standing between the trees slides back, and James loses sight of her.
Slowly, his leg centers the pain in one spot. His knee is bruised, and aches. Regardless of the pain, he makes his way away from the truck and towards the two trees. As his feet drag the dirt and grass, and lift to take another step, the tumult of the trees cackle above in the wind. James' hands land on one of the pines, and he looks below to find a dirt trail. What is odd is, he never saw a single footprint, or track. He leans against a tree and rubs his knee, bearing on it firmly.
He turns his head, and looks down the path. It is mostly straight, with a few bends and twists, just like Mabeline. After a few minutes of shuffling dirt, James looks ahead and sees the house that sits behind the trees across the lake. Fear and intrigue begin fueding inside his body, and he stands still, waiting for a good excuse to go to the house. Evetually, he decides to go "ask for help". The real reason is curiosity.
On the edge of the roof hangs a few trinkets, and odd things. Five short ropes hold at their ends chicken feet, feathers, antlers and weeds all tied up and hung from the roof. Baskets and a rolled up rug lean against the wall, next to the door. The paint is barely holding on, and on it's last stretch. James looks up at one of the dusty gaggles of random things strung up from the roof, and notices a limb from a cotton bush. He reaches up and pulls one boll off. It reminds him of sitting out in the fields down the road.
The door was just beyond a rickety screen door, and was also in need of repair, and a paint job. And, like everything else, in need of dusting. He opens the screen door, and reaches for the handle of the door, which is wierd because most doors have knobs, and locks. James pushes the door in and it gives way to an open room all around, surrounded by four ragged walls. The only walls this house had were the four making it a large box for one or two people to live, and die in. And that seems to be exactly what it was intended for. He walks in and notices a shelf filled with mason jars. Inside their dusty glass is greens and tomatoes, and muscadine grapes.
The heat finally begins pulling sweat from him, and James wipes his brow. Under a small mindow is a sink, so dry. He pulls a small chair from under a small, cluttered table. James sits, and wonders what a lonely life it must have been. Hidden by trees, and sequestered to a destitute life behind these walls, alone.
A shadow flutters by a hung apron, next to a narrow bed in the corner. James jumps, and leans against the sink. He is breathing hard, and cold chills erupt from inside him, and tighten up his skin. The air grows thick and cold. A tall, dark figure forms in front of him, and distorts the house beyond the darkness. James cannot, yell, or scream. His back bends over the sink as the figure presses forward.
Before any harm can be done, the ghoul slides across the big house and disappears. James feels arms wrap around him, the cold chills still wandering along his body. The arms grow faint, until the feeling goes away. He is frozen in fear, until he sees an imprint on the bed grow along the blanket, as if someone were sitting.
"James... Must... Apologize," An ethereal voice calls from across the room, "Scornful Sister... My daughter, so hurt..."
The chills fade, and he leans forward, regaining his strength. The impression he saw on the bed disappears with the chill, and he stands for a moment.
"What the hell..." He runs for the door, and swings it open, not closing it behind him.

June 18, 2011
By Stephen Miller
"In 1948, Al Schwimmer smuggled unused U.S. warplanes to Israel and helped found the new country's air force by assembling a motley array of castoff planes from around the world.
Five years later, at the invitation of Israel's first prime minister, David Ben-Gurion, Mr. Schwimmer founded what grew to be Israel Aerospace Industries Ltd. The company developed Israel's first home-built jet and sells munitions and civilian planes around the globe as the country's largest industrial exporter.
Mr. Schwimmer, who died June 10 at age 94, was raised in Bridgeport, Conn., and became a flight engineer for Trans World Airlines.
During World War II, he joined the U.S. Air Transport Command, ferrying planes from the U.S. to Europe. After the war, he set up an airplane-maintenance operation in Burbank, Calif. He became interested in Zionism after learning about the Holocaust and that war loomed in newly established Israel.
Recruited by representatives of Mr. Ben-Gurion in the months leading up to the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, Mr. Schwimmer began overhauling U.S. warplanes at his California company for shipment to the nascent Israeli air force. He used shell corporations to help conceal his efforts to aid the Jewish forces.
Pursued by Federal Bureau of Investigation agents who had discovered his operations, Mr. Schwimmer flew to Israel, where he ferried in vintage Messerschmitts from Eastern Europe. "On one of our flights from Prague, we actually flew over Egypt and dropped a couple of bombs," Mr. Schwimmer told the Boston Globe in 2001.
After Israel prevailed in the war, Mr. Schwimmer returned to Los Angeles, where in 1950 he was convicted on conspiracy charges for violating U.S. laws against exporting arms to Israel. He was fined but not sentenced to prison. A personal appeal from Prime Minister Ben-Gurion in 1951 persuaded him to immigrate to Israel and found IAI, a maintenance operation turned into a high-tech manufacturer.
In 1967, the company produced the first fighter jet made in Israel, a version of the French Mirage III C. "Ben-Gurion did not know a screw driver from a slide rule, but he had a vision of what the state would need," Mr. Schwimmer told Time magazine in 1974.
At his death, Mr. Schwimmer was hailed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and by President Shimon Peres, an old friend Mr. Schwimmer had worked with buying surplus U.S. aircraft in the 1950s. In 2001, President Bill Clinton granted Mr. Schwimmer a pardon for his 1950 convictions, despite his not having sought one. At that time, Mr. Schwimmer told the Jewish Journal that he had no plans to write a memoir. "Who would be interested?" he asked."

8 Completely Infallible Tips To Filling Out Your March Madness Bracket. Nate Silver for the win!
Geege Schuman stashed this in Basketball
Stashed in: Basketball, Gambling!, Big Data, March Madness 2013, Nate Silver
5. Google the results of the last 10 Championship Games to help you decide on a "Total Points" tiebreaker, even though you'll be hilariously out of the pool by then.
Example: "Oooh, I was only off by 6 points in my tiebreaker! If three of the Four Final Four teams had been different, I probably would've won this thing."
That's funny.
Net-net: It's better to randomly pick than to try to think it out, right?
Heh heh: "Net-net". I get it.
But I like Big Data.
<According to Silver, who doesn't suggest we "throw darts at the wall to pick your tournament bracket" despite how much we may want to, Louisville is the most likely team to win the 2013 NCAA men's basketball tournament at 23 percent favorability. Indiana is second with a 19.6 percent chance, with Florida (12.7 percent) and Kansas (7.5 percent) coming in third and fourth, respectively.>
I disagree with Silver. Louisville is in the Region of Death:
There are at least five other teams with a good shot of beating Louisville.
And especially Duke, which wants to prove that being ranked #2 in the division was a fluke.
I agree that the outcome of this tournament might be more difficult to predict than the Presidential election or the Academy Awards.
Personally, I use magical thinking: I liked Cinderella Butler Bulldogs two years ago and Gonzaga is both Cinderella and Bulldogs.
But I'm in Gator Country, so I see Silver linings.
"Kansas is the No. 1 seed and Ben McLemore and Jeff Withey can play with anyone in the country. In addition, the team made the final game last year and that experience will come into play in March. However, Nate Silver has Final Four odds favoring Florida of any of the South teams, and the No. 3 seeded Gators have plenty of talent as well."
Oregon it is then.
Nate Silver March Madness bracket analysis still doesn't make sense to me.
Specifically: Why Florida? Just because all their losses were by small margins but their wins were all huge?
Gonzaga is not only Cinderella and Bulldogs but they're also in the weakest of the four regions.
I would love to see the Zags in the Final Four!
That SBNation link was great. Find any other good ones?

Rapid advances in molecular diagnostics and cancer biology are transforming the respective oncology research and drug development organizations. Subsequently, this has led to the evolution of new testing protocols and clinical trials paradigm aimed at matching patient therapies to improve treatment outcomes and to treat them with innovative personalized cancer therapies. These efforts will heavily rely on validated biomarkers and are expected to transform the importance of clinical laboratories application in oncology diagnostics and treatment. Personalized medicine is defined as the customization of particular treatment based on a patient's somatic genetics and is capable of transforming healthcare treatments for various disorders. Among all the molecular genetic assays, companion diagnostics are an important tool in the implementation of this personalized medicine therapy. The information that is derived from companion diagnostic tests specifies the customization of therapies based on genetics of the disease.
A companion diagnostic test or device is an imaging tool or in-vitro diagnostic device that provides specific information, which is necessary for the effective and safe application of a particular therapeutic product. This in-vitro companion diagnostic test measures the presence of a definite biomarker that is associated with a therapy or disease condition. Moreover, in the recent years there has been a significant advancement for application of companion diagnostic testing and personalized medicine in the oncology industry. In oncology therapy, companion diagnostic tests typically identify somatic mutations in tumor cells that help in direct application of therapeutic product and found its application majorly in the colon, lung, breast and other cancer types. Among these, the application of companion diagnostic tests in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer is considered to be the major application area and is accounts for more than 50% of overall companion diagnostic tests market in oncology area.
Thus, the above-mentioned attributes regarding companion diagnostic tests clearly depicts that there is an immense potential in next few years for developing innovative personalized treatment therapies for various treatment disorders. The contributing factors for the growth of this market include increased regulatory authorities' focus on the development of companion diagnostic tests, increased acceptance of diagnostic guidelines and favorable government reimbursement policies for these tests. Additionally, the market for companion diagnostics in developing nations such as China, India and Brazil is expected to foresee an attractive growth in coming years owing to growth in providing specialized pathology services and augmented patient access to the clinical laboratory testing services. Furthermore, rise in the geriatric population, growth in the number of number of patients suffering from various forms of cancer and growing healthcare awareness among the patients are further expected to accentuate the growth of this market.
The global companion diagnostics tests market for oncology is segmented geographically into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Rest of World. Among these regions, North America accounts for the largest market share of overall companion diagnostic tests market followed by the European region. The dominance of North America in this market seen majorly due to the favorable regulatory policies and rise in investment for standard diagnostic laboratories infrastructure. Asia-Pacific region is expected to witness fastest growth rate in the near future due to rising population base and increasing awareness among population.
Some of the major players operating in this market include Roche Diagnostics, Abbott Laboratories, Ventana Medical Systems, Inc., Epigenomics AG, Beckman Coulter Inc., Qiagen, Genomic Health Inc., Celera, Leica Biosystems, Labcorp, Quest Diagnostics, Inc., Panacea Pharmaceuticals, Dako and others.

Don wrote a great post on Facebook today about our day, so here it is: "Spectacular day. Took cable car to top of Mt Pilatus. It was fogged in most of the day.

Not sure when this started but I came in this morning to find Spiceworks so unbelievably slow that it's what I would consider useless... so bad, that I've had people say the portal was giving them Busy errors and they are emailing us instead now.
I took ALL of the necessary steps noted in the useless, err I mean handy post found here: http://community.spiceworks.com/how_to/show/282
Here's what sucks though: I cleared the Email settings, which I found in another post, and now for some reason no matter what I do, I cannot get the freaking thing to save the settings - it keeps timing out and can't reach the mail server. Email's working fine... nothing wrong there. I also noticed that I cannot PING the email server from this Spiceworks server - but I can ping the email server from any other machine... wtf?
Ok update on this: I ended up changing over to using Exchange as the protocol for email and used the EXTERNAL IP address ... and now the email will save. It seems as if Spiceworks is a bit faster now - perhaps the email was throwing it into a devastating loop or something? Why all of a sudden can it not reach the email server? Any ideas? Anyone?

Update: It looks like the Email was causing the problem after all. Ever since I changed it to use the EXTERNAL IP (which I'm so mad about) it's been working fine.
Any idea why all of a sudden this server would stop being able to communicate with the exchange server? I'd say rebooting helped but it didn't ... there 14 emails that were in queue from over the weekend so it happened over the weekend apparently. Very weird!
Nov 15, 2010 at 12:16 UTC
It' still running pretty slow although drastically better than it was before ... any suggestions on why Spiceworks might be running slow?

Although must of us put cotton against our skin almost everyday, in the form of socks and T-shirts, the story of cotton is far from everyday, which is why it has been turned into an extensive exhibition at the Whitworth Art Gallery, Manchester.
Cotton: Global Threads, which opens tomorrow, gives a global history of the production, consumption and trade in cotton, featuring pieces from the Middle Ages to the present day. New commissions by contemporary artists, including Yinka Shonibare and Lubaina Himid, will hang alongside the gallery's permanent textile collection.
Click here or on "View Gallery" for a picture preview
"Cotton is the best-selling and most widely used fibre in the world. Its manufacture has exposed both the promise and the perils of global capitalism, and no other industry is so closely associated with the exploitation of human labour - from the slave plantations of the US and Marx and Engels' 'satanic mills' of Lancashire to the garment factories of South China today," curator Jennifer Harris said.
"We want to use this exhibition to tell its important story, not only from an artistic perspective, but also economically and ethically."

Records: Army allowed Santa Cruz cop killer to resign
Jeremy Goulet's criminal records show he resigned from the military instead of face a court-martial after he was twice accused of rape
By Martha Mendoza
AP National Writer
SANTA CRUZ, Calif. — Records show the Army commander of a former soldier who gunned down two California police detectives had allowed him to resign from the military instead of face a court-martial after he was twice accused of rape.
The findings are contained in Jeremy Goulet's criminal records obtained by The Associated Press on Tuesday. Authorities say Goulet gunned down two Santa Cruz police detectives before being killed in a shootout on Feb. 26
The records show investigators found probable cause to prosecute Goulet in 2006, but his commander allowed him to resign for the good of the service instead of facing a general court-martial under other than honorable conditions.
Former Defense Secretary Leon Panetta and members of Congress demanded investigations into Goulet's discharge after the attack in Santa Cruz detectives.

W hile The Da Vinci Code was launched at the Cannes Film Festival to a critical mauling but worldwide interest, the BBC was putting the finishing touches to an ambitious project designed to tap into the clear appetite for dramatic religious themes.
It has asked Nigel Stafford-Clark, the acclaimed producer of Bleak House, to apply the same techniques he used in brilliantly adapting Dickens to make a classic, popular drama series about Christ, The Passion, primarily for BBC1, but with obvious international sales appeal. The aim is to depict anew the life of Jesus and the events leading up to his crucifixion in an intense, nightly soap-style drama, building to a climax during the Easter week of 2008. The project is backed by Peter Fincham, savvy controller of BBC1, anxious to ensure his era is marked by a memorable version of what some see as the greatest story ever told, rather than a failed Davina McCall chat show or celebrity showjumping.
The last time British television attempted anything on this scale was in 1977, when Lew Grade made the successful mini-series Jesus of Nazareth, which was in turn lapped up by American television. Son of Man, written by Dennis Potter, went out in 1970. The writer for the BBC's multimillion-pound drama has yet to be chosen.
One of the interesting things about the BBC decision is that it is far from being alone in spotting that people are ready to watch factual programmes about religious and ethical matters if they are well made and not just there to meet quotas. This is a turnaround from this time last year, when there was concern in some quarters that the genre was dying, as entertainment and reality TV took over, and ITV had just ruthlessly taken advantage of a more liberal regulatory regime to drop the hoary My Favourite Hymns
There remain continual spasms of anxiety over the survival of Thought for the Day on Radio 4. Songs of Praise suffers from no fixed starting point on Sunday evenings and the BBC's Alan Bookbinder, in charge of its in-house religious programme makers, has resigned after a difficult five years.
Yet just as The Da Vinci Code was being screened, a more sedate gathering, the annual awards for religious television programmes, was under way in Lambeth Palace, seat of the Archbishop of Canterbury, kicking off with precisely poured glasses of sherry, sweet or dry.
But appearances are deceptive: this was the place to gauge the sea change. The awards are run by the Sandford St Martin's Trust to promote excellence, but there was a fierce competitiveness in the air. The chair of the judges, Jane Drabble, a former BBC executive, said: 'I must say I was very pleasantly surprised, we saw a whole slew of really good programmes.Maybe there is a resurgence.' Patricia Routledge, a guest speaker, added: 'There is a hungry and inquiring mind abroad for programmes such as these.'
The winner was ITV's 7/7: A Test of Faith with Rageh 'Scud Stud' Omaar, which focused on the raw reflections of those who had lost family and friends in the London underground bombings. But significantly the runner-up was an experimental prime-time series, Channel 4's Priest Idol, which last autumn followed an American Anglican, Father James McCaskill, as he tried, with very mixed success, to harness modern marketing methods to turn around a dying church in Barnsley.
A merit award went to another fresh start, The Monastery, made by Tiger Aspect for BBC2, which followed five men who spent 40 days and nights struggling to live the monastic life at Worth Abbey; the programmes drew, for structure, on constructed reality formats used in programmes such as Wife Swap. (In one incident two of the men jog off to the village in search of 'virgins and cigarettes'). It attracted 2.5 million viewers and a follow-up is under way, while a book by the abbott, Dom Christopher Jamison, Finding Sanctuary - Monastic Steps for Everyday Life, published last month, is selling briskly.
And it is being followed (starting 14 June), again on BBC2, with The Convent, which sees four women - a reformed alcoholic, a divorced businesswoman, a bohemian poet and a mother of three - experience 40 days and nights with the enclosed Poor Clares order in Arundel; for this the same producer, Tiger Aspect, had to assemble an all-female crew.
Sani Scott, executive producer and one of the three-women crew, said: 'This is an especially warm, loving community, very, very intimate. Men would have broken the atmosphere.' She adds, tantalisingly, that there were some scenes of rebellion.
Adam Kemp, BBC commissioner for religion, arts and music, said: 'I know The Monastery has had a huge catalytic effect, I knew we could take a risk with a more modern format: it works on so many different levels.'
But most interesting of all was a decision by Radio Times editor Gill Hudson to ask her readers to take part for the first time by voting for their best religious programme. To her surprise the response rate was double the magazine's usual one, and they selected the most demanding of programmes - Tsunami: Where was God?, a two-hour examination of the Boxing Day tragedy by presenter Mark Dowd. Channel 4 ran it on Christmas Day against Harry Potter
It is tempting to postulate that the experiences of 9/11 onwards have made people seek out programmes exploring matters of faith and religion. All that television executives will agree on is that until recently they had not been meeting expectations.
Kemp, whose credits include Easter's Manchester Passion for BBC3, said: 'This is just the start: the word renaissance is not too strong, For some time our programming wasn't quite sufficiently imaginative for our audiences. They were waiting for us to up our game as broadcasters.'
Aaqil Ahmed, born in Bolton to Muslim parents and commissioner for religion at Channel 4, observed: 'When I arrived at Channel 4 three years ago, religious programmes were going out at 5-6 pm on Saturday afternoons. My aim was to put religion in prime time.'
To do that they had to punch their weight, and he opted for God is Black, Children of Abraham (examining the intertwined roots of Judaism, Christianity and Islam), Karbala - City of Martyrs and The Cult of the Suicide Bomber. 'It's not any old stuff; it has got to be good. It took time for independent production companies to respond - they had been used to an easy ride.'
Which is why the BBC's religious department is at an interesting point. Interviews for a new head take place soon, and Ahmed is among the contenders.
But a cautionary note. Television is driven by trends. No one can be certain that the buzz will continue. But the BBC's decision to make The Passion has thrown down a gauntlet of sorts.

And I lied. I found a lipid test from 2011 that had me in 171 with LDL at 131. So thinking about it I may not be as bad as I thought.
You posted: My test just came back 213. Sorry, I thought you were referring to Test as testosterone being 213 which would be a pretty sorry number.

In unusually strong criticism, the Lords committee on the constitution accused the Prime Minister of rushing the law "simply to see something done".
Opposing the fast-tracking of the Parliamentary Standards Bill, the peers also condemned the Mr Brown's use of YouTube to unveil reforms as "constitutionally unorthodox".
They warned his proposals — which include an authority to oversee allowances and up to a year in jail for MPs caught fiddling expenses — now threatened a conflict between Parliament and the courts.
"Rushing the bill through Parliament is unacceptable," said the committee's Tory chairman Lord Goodlad.
"If the aim of the Bill is to restore public confidence in Parliament... it seems odd to do that with a Bill that has not undergone any sort of consultation."
The committee's criticism follows individuals including:
Parliamentary commissioner for standards John Lyon who has voiced concerns over the independence of the new allowances watchdog who would investigate complaints.
Sir Philip Mawer, the Prime Minister's own independent adviser on the ministerial code, who has warned the arrangements could cost more.
Dr Malcolm Jack, the clerk of the House, believes the Bill raises issues about the relationship between MPs and the courts.
Parliament's joint committee on human rights said the Bill may prevent the right to a fair hearing for MPs.
The Bill cleared the Commons in three days last week, and the Prime Minister hopes it will go through the Lords and become law before recess on 21 July.
