When I bought the electronics starter kit for the Raspberry Pi, it came with a small 16 character by 2 line LCD. I found instructions on the Adafruit website for wiring it up and controlling it. I thought it might also be a useful thing to use with the NodeMCU board so I had a look for any instructions for that.
Unfortunately everything I found was for the I2C version of the display and I've got the plain parallel bus version, so I decided to have a go at wiring it up and programming it myself.
Wiring up the board
The wiring is quite straightforward, although a lot of wires are required. Six GPIO pins are needed at the NodeMCU end, along with power and ground.
Starting with the power pins, connect one of the ground pins from the NodeMCU to the ground rail of the breadboard. The 'Vin' pin supplies 5 volts (if used with a usb connection) so connect a wire from that to the '+' rail of the breadboard.
Four data lines are required: D4-D7 on the LCD. To make things easier I connected these to pins 4-7 on the NodeMCU board. The final two connections from the NodeMCU are 'Clock' (called 'E' on the display board) which went to pin 2, and 'RS' which went to pin 1. Data line D0-D3 from the display board are left unconnected.
The rest of the pins on the board go to either 0V, 5V or a potentiometer set as a voltage divider (ignore the 3 LEDs in the pictures, they aren't needed here).
Connect the following pins to ground (0V):
- 'RW' (set permanently to Write mode since we aren't reading from the board)
- 'VSS' (the board's ground connection)
- 'K' (the ground connection for the backlight)
- One side of the two potentiometers.
Connect the 'VDD' pin to 5V and also the other side of the two 10K potentiometers. Finally, the 'V0' and 'A' pins can be connected to the centre of the two potentiometers to provied adjustable contrast and backlight.
Programming the board
I based my Lua code on the Python code downloaded from the Adafruit website. Since I was converting the code from one language to another, I read through it carefully to make sure I only converted the bare minimum to get it working.
My first version of the code was little more than a few subroutines to send bytes to the board. While I was reading the NodeMCU Lua FAQ, I noticed that they recommend that code is written to be event driven instead of the more traditional program flow used in scripting. They also state that routines called from an event can only take a maximum of 10 milliseconds to run before they affect background services. After reading that I changed my code to buffer the text and use a timer to check the buffer and send the bytes to the display.
The current version is probably too cautious and sends a byte at a time. It might be more efficient to send a line at a time but that should be easy to change.
The code can be found over on Github. I have decided to put it there since it is easier for me to keep it up to date and easier for anyone else to download.
Using the Raspberry Pi serial port from Java
|Story location: Home / computing / raspberry_pi /
A couple of days ago I wrote about connecting the Raspberry Pi to the NodeMCU microprocessor board. I originally used Python since I find that the easiest for testing ideas or simple prototyping. Since I use Java for most of my application programming, I thought I should work out how to do the same thing in Java too.
Luckily there is a Java serial comms library called RxTx which is available precompiled for Debian Linux and can be installed on the Raspberry Pi simply by typing
sudo apt-get install librxtx-java
The jar file is placed in /usr/share/java/RXTXcomm.jar (and doesn't seem to be added automatically to the classpath) so to compile any code, you'll need to use something like
javac -cp /usr/share/java/RXTXcomm.jar:. SerialTest.java
and to run the code you need to reference both the jar and the JNI library, using
java -cp /usr/share/java/RXTXcomm.jar:. -Djava.library.path=/usr/lib/jni SerialTest
The Code
import gnu.io.CommPort; import gnu.io.CommPortIdentifier; import gnu.io.SerialPort; import java.io.* import java.util.Scanner; public class SerialTest{ public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception{ CommPortIdentifier portIdentifier = CommPortIdentifier.getPortIdentifier("/dev/ttyS0"); CommPort commPort = portIdentifier.open("Java Serial Test",1000); System.out.println("Opened Port"); SerialPort serialPort = (SerialPort) commPort; serialPort.setSerialPortParams(115200,SerialPort.DATABITS_8,SerialPort.STOPBITS_1,SerialPort.PARITY_NONE); String[] leds = new String[]{"r","g","b","off"}; try(BufferedInputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(serialPort.getInputStream()); BufferedOutputStream out = new BufferedOutputStream(serialPort.getOutputStream()); Scanner s = new Scanner(in)){ for(String c : leds){ out.write(c.getBytes()); out.flush(); System.out.println(s.next()); Thread.sleep(1000); } } } }
I saved the code as SerialTest.java and compiled it and ran it using the commands above. It expects the serial.lua file to already be running on the NodeMCU board, either by running the python script from last time or by executing
python nodemcu-uploader.py --port /dev/serial0 file do serial.lua
As you can see, the code is much more verbose than the Python version but it gets the job done.
The long awaited Raspberry Pi post: Interfacing with a NodeMCU
|Story location: Home / computing / raspberry_pi /
I first used a Raspberry Pi when I was working in Leicester and I bought one for home not long after that. I set it up as a file/media server and it has been sitting in the front room quietly doing its job since then.
Last year I bought a Pi 3 and an electronics starter kit (which consisted of a breadboard, LEDs, switches and various other components) so I could learn how to connect things to the Pi.
A few weeks ago I was given a NodeMCU development board (my friend Tim has already written about some of his experiments with his).
I followed the instructions on flashing the firmware and getting a script running. For some reason the ESPlorer software doesn't seem to behave well on my computer. It usually takes several rounds of restarting/resetting/reconnecting before it will agree to communicate with it. The command line tools have no problems, neither does CoolTerm. After a day when it felt like I was spending half of my time struggling to get ESPlorer to connect properly, I decided to ditch it and use the nodemcu-uploader command line instead.
The first thing I wrote was the Hello World of the microcontroller world: the flashing LEDs. The next stage was to use the serial ports to connect the Raspberry Pi and the NodeMCU together.
Setting up the Raspberry Pi Serial Port
By default, the serial port on the Pi is configured to be used for a serial console , mainly for diagnostics. To use it for other things, you need to disable the console. There are lots of different instructions to do this but for the Pi 3 it boils down to editing the /boot/config.txt file and adding the line
followed by editing /boot/cmdline.txt and removing the
entry. After rebooting the Pi, the GPIO pins 14 & 15 should be available for the serial port.
Writing the script for the NodeMCU
I took my flashing LED script and modified it to listen to the serial port. Sending 'r','g' or 'b' will light up the respective LEDs, any other character will turn them off. If the following script is saved as serial.lua, it can be uploaded to the NodeMCU using
python nodemcu-uploader.py -port /dev/serial0 upload serial.lua
as long as the NodeMCU Uploader has been installed first.
-- Listen on the serial port for a colour. -- Toggle the colour of the LED. green=2 blue=1 red=3 gpio.mode(red,gpio.OUTPUT) gpio.mode(green,gpio.OUTPUT) gpio.mode(blue,gpio.OUTPUT) -- Start with the LEDs off gpio.write(red,gpio.LOW) gpio.write(green,gpio.LOW) gpio.write(blue,gpio.LOW) uart.setup(0,115200,8, uart.PARITY_NONE, uart.STOPBITS_1, 1) uart.on("data",1, function(char) if char=="r" then print("red") gpio.write(red,gpio.HIGH) gpio.write(green,gpio.LOW) gpio.write(blue,gpio.LOW) elseif char=="g" then print("green") gpio.write(red,gpio.LOW) gpio.write(green,gpio.HIGH) gpio.write(blue,gpio.LOW) lighton=2 elseif char=="b" then print("blue") gpio.write(red,gpio.LOW) gpio.write(green,gpio.LOW) gpio.write(blue,gpio.HIGH) else print("Off") gpio.write(red,gpio.LOW) gpio.write(green,gpio.LOW) gpio.write(blue,gpio.LOW) end end,0)
The script can be run using
python nodemcu-uploader.py -port /dev/serial0 file do serial.lua
Getting the Pi to talk to the NodeMCU
I connected the RX GPIO pin on the Pi to the TX pin on the NodeMCU, and vice versa. The easiest way of powering the NodeMCU was to use the power out pins from the Pi. I found that connecting the 5V out to Vin on the NodeMCU worked reliably. If I had the Pi plugged into a good quality USB power adaptor then I could sometimes get it to work by connecting one of the 3.3V pins of the Pi to one of the 3.3V pins of the NodeMCU board, but this isn't guaranteed to work.
The script uses the serial port library, which can be installed using
sudo apt-get install python-serial
The Python script is fairly simple and just cycles through the LEDs a few times. The third line runs the lua script, in case it wasn't already running. There isn't a pause between cycling between the LEDs but the serial timeout is set to 1 second and the port.read(100) command attempts to read 100 bytes. Since there should only be the colour names being returned, this automatically adds a 1 second delay. This might not be very good programming practice but it was the easiest way of incorporating reading a variable length response and adding a pause all at once.
import serial port = serial.Serial("/dev/serial0", baudrate=115200, parity=serial.PARITY_NONE, timeout=1.0) port.write("dofile('serial.lua')\r\n") for i in range(1,10): for c in ['r','g','b']: port.write(c) r = port.read(100) print(r)
Flashing LEDs
This first demonstration is pretty trivial, although it took a few days of trial and error to get everything working. In due course I'll experiment with connecting different sensors to the Pi and NodeMCU.
I think my next step is to use Java on the Pi to do the same thing. I have had a quick look at Java serial port stuff and it isn't as straightforward as Python but since I do most of my programming in Java these days, it will be useful to know how to do that.
International A-Z: Bulgarian Holiday Bread
|Story location: Home / food_and_drink / a_to_z /
For the letter 'B' I decided to do a version of a traditional Bulgarian Christmas loaf. I had originally intended to make it over Christmas but I didn't find time to do any baking, and since we had lots of cakes and chocolates to eat, we didn't really need more bread.
(For the bread)
- 2 cups of bread flour
- 2 tsp yeast
- 2 eggs
- 50g softened butter
- ½ cup water
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tablespoon honey
(For the glaze)
- 1 tsp of honey
- a few drops of water
Mix the water and honey a few drops at a time until the honey is a pourable consistency.
I put all the bread ingredients in our food mixer, with the dough hook, and let it mix for a few minutes. Since this a brioche type bread, the mix was very wet and a bit sticky, which made it difficult to handle and shape.
I broke the dough into equal weight pieces, rolled them into balls and put them in a round tin to prove.
After they had risen, I carefully brushed them with the honey mixture. It was baked in a pre-heated oven (gas mark 5) for half an hour. I started it off covered in foil, but took the foil off after the first 15 minutes.
Verdict: a soft slightly sweet brioche with a honey flavoured crust. Definitely one to try again.
Lunchroulette at the German Market again
|Story location: Home / Blog / food_and_drink /
I went back to the German Market again and picked a random stall to buy my lunch. This time it was one of the Pretzel stalls. The salami pretzel sounded good so I bought one of those.
The pretzel was pretty much what you expect: soft, chewy and very salty on top. I had change left so I thought I would try a dessert next. The choice of desserts was reasonably wide and included pancakes, sweets, cakes, marshmallows or chocolate coated fruit kebabs. The dice took me to a marshmallow stand.
I chose an orange and a gingerbread one. The marshmallow is softer and stickier than the sort you get in bags, and sits on a small waffle or wafer-like disc.
|Story location: Home / Blog / food_and_drink /
The German Market is in full swing in Birmingham and I am still using the random number app to choose my lunch.
Chicken Schnitzel
The dice took me to a schnitzel stand which offered a choice of different meats. I let the dice decide and came away with a chicken schnitzel. I also got some chips to go with it.
I had asked for the mushroom sauce and I think they gave me the curry sauce but it was still good, and went well with the schnitzel.
Half metre sausage
The choice was a bit easier this time. The dice chose the half-metre bratwurst stand so I didn't have any extra choices to make. I didn't let the dice choose my condiments, I added half ketchup and half mustard.
The sausage was fine but the bread was a bit chewy. Although it looks a lot of food, I still felt hungry afterwards.
Banana Bread/Pumpkin Traybake
|Story location: Home / Blog / food_and_drink /
This was another 'make room in the freezer' baking session. I had more grated pumpkin in the freezer, along with some 'shop damaged' bananas (6p for a bag). I defrosted them and made two cake mixes. My idea was to pour them in opposite ends of a baking tray, giving the middle a swirl so the ends were one type of cake and the middle had both combined.
The original recipe was based on the pumpkin cupcakes. I beat together 175ml of vegetable oil, 3 eggs and a teaspoon of vanilla extract, then divided the mixture in two.
In one half I added the pumpkin cake ingredients (but using cranberries instead of sultanas):
- 85g golden caster sugar
- 100g of grated pumpkin
- 50g cranberries
- 1 tsp cinnamon with ½ tsp of mixed spice
In the other half I added
- 85g of drinking chocolate powder, with an extra tablespoon of sugar
- 100g mashed banana
- 50g sultanas
Both halves also had
- 100g self raising flour
- ½ tsp of bicarbonate of soda
I poured the two batters into a 10x6 inch tray. I expected the cakes to take about half an hour at gas mark 4 but it was well over ¾ hour before the middle stopped being liquid.
When the cake had cooled, I made a lemon juice icing, slightly runny so I could drizzle it over the top.
I took some of the cake to work to share (since that was where the hot chocolate powder came from, it was only fair to do that). People seemed to like it - I got favourable comments from people, someone even noticed that I had used an oil based recipe. Both cakes were definitely worth doing again.
Lunchroulette at the German Market
|Story location: Home / Blog / food_and_drink /
The German Christmas Market returned to Birmingham last week. We popped out for an inaugural pint or two when it opened but this week I decided to get some food. Instead of using the Wheeldecide website, I used a random number generator app on my phone to choose which of the many food outlets to choose.
I found myself in front of a chalet-style take-away which had a range of different menu items all based around burgers, potatoes and mushrooms. Instead of letting the dice choose how much I ate, I went for the full menu since I didn't want to end up hungry.
The garlic sauce was a bit too strong but the meal itself was good, as was the wheat beer.
International A-Z: A for Algeria
|Story location: Home / food_and_drink / a_to_z /
Earlier this year I was watching Saturday Kitchen and they were showing one of the many regular clips from Rick Stein. This was from a series he did in Eastern Europe and it gave me the idea to try to do another alphabetical cooking challenge. I intend to take each letter of the alphabet and cook something from a country or region beginning with each letter.
Originally my plan was to cook a meal but we were recently at a barbecue where the husband was Algerian and his family had provided most of the food. There was a yellow bread which went down really well. When I got home I looked it up and found some recipes.
Khobz El Dar: Algerian Semolina Bread
I took inspiration from a recipe from food.com but I reduced the quantities a bit. Since the bread we ate didn't have seeds on or in it, I left those out.
My bread took a long time to rise (I think there were problems with the yeast) and the bread had a slight sourdough taste to it. I had baked with semolina before but this was the first time I had done a bread which was mostly semolina flour. My version wasn't as good as the one we had at the barbecue but it was my first attempt. If I try again, with fresher yeast, it might come out better.
Pumpkin Cupcakes
|Story location: Home / Blog / food_and_drink /
When we scooped out the pumpkins to make Halloween lanterns, I grated and froze the flesh so I could try cooking something with it. The pumpkins which are sold for lanterns are usually a lower quality and aren't recommended for eating so I thought I would start with something where the pumpkin isn't the main flavour, so I could probably get away with a lower quality ingredient.
I found a recipe for cupcakes. It was pretty much a carrot cake but using pumpkin instead of grated carrot. The recipe called for grated orange zest but I didn't have an orange so I left that out.
I tried one of the cakes last night, when they were still a bit warm. It tasted ok but that was before I had made the icing. Tonight's cake, with a generous layer of cream cheese frosting, was definitely an improvement.
Fruit Juice Porridges
|Story location: Home / Blog / food_and_drink /
I carried on trying out different porridge recipes this week. A couple of highlights are below.
Apple and Blackberry Porridge
When I made the apple puree a few weeks ago, I bottled and froze the juice which collected in the bottom of the pan. I used it to make an apple and blackberry porridge.
Tropical Fruit Porridge
I used coconut water instead of milk, and added some tropical fruit mix.
Porridge Week 2
|Story location: Home / Blog / food_and_drink /
I only had time to try 4 different porridges this week. I'm going to be away on Friday so won't have chance to make anything.
Monday: Bacon and Syrup
Yes, you read that right. I don't like mixing sweet flavours with meat and consider pineapple with gammon or on a pizza to be a very poor choice. I decided to be adventurous and try a sweet bacon porridge. Mistake. I could still taste it even after a cup of tea and brushing my teeth.
Tuesday: Apple and Blackberry
After last week's Apple and Cinnamon porridge, I decided to try an Apple, Blackberry and Cinnamon porridge, using extra cinnamon. This was better than the plain apple one, although the blackberry seeds added a bit of a crunchy texture.
Wednesday: Lemon Berry Porridge
This was inspired by a recipe from the World Porridge Making championships. I used a mixture of frozen berries (blueberries, blackberries, wild strawberries and red gooseberries) which were mostly picked in our garden, with about a tablespoon of added lemon juice. I cooked the porridge in water instead of milk then added the fruit.
I tried the porridge first, before adding any extra sugar. I don't think it needed any. The fruit were quite sweet and the lemon juice balanced it out with some added sharpness.
Thursday: Chocolate and Coconut
This was inspired by the flavours of the Bounty chocolate bar. Since dessicated coconut can be quite 'bitty', I microwaved some in water last night then added it to the porridge this morning, along with some drinking chocolate. The coconut still had a bit of bite to it. I have tried coconut in porridge several times before and there are always some hard bits so I probably need to boil or simmer it for quite a long time to stop that happening.
Porridge Week 1
|Story location: Home / Blog / food_and_drink /
I have porridge for breakfast fairly often but now that the weather is starting to get cold, it's probably time to make it my regular breakfast now. Most mornings I just add some dried fruit and sometimes some honey but this week I thought I would try a different flavour each day.
Monday: Peanut butter and Cranberry
Since it is World Porridge Day, I decided to do a different porridge each day this week. I only decided this after I had already left for work so this morning I used what I had available: a tub of dried cranberries and a small pot of peanut butter.
Tuesday: Dried raspberry
While I like raspberries, the taste didn't get into the porridge and they were very 'bitty' to eat.
Wednesday: Apple, cinnamon and brown sugar
I have mentioned before that most cake recipes don't use enough cinnamon. Unfortunately I made the same mistake myself and didn't add enough to the oats. Next time, I will add more and possibly use sweetened cooked apple instead of chopping a fresh apple into the porridge.
Thursday: Strawberry Porridge
We have a bag of frozen strawberries so I put some in a tub to defrost in the fridge overnight and added them to the porridge after I had cooked it. I then gave it another 20 seconds in the microwave to make sure the strawberries weren't too cold.
Fresh strawberries don't always have much flavour and I could probably have added more but this was ok.
Friday: Nutella and Peanut Butter
This used to be a favourite of mine but I hadn't had it for a while. We recently bought a jar of nutella so I made it again today. This was possibly my favourite of the week.
|Story location: Home / Blog / food_and_drink /
A few weeks ago I decided to try somewhere different for lunch. I found a website called wheeldecide.com which can randomly choose from nearby restaurants or take-aways. I decided to use it to choose where to go for lunch.
Week 1: Full Stop Sandwich
This place was a bit of a walk. I didn't know where 'New Town Row' was and had to look it up on a map. When I got there it was almost empty but while I was paying for my sandwich it started to fill up. I chose their 'sandwich of the day' which was pork and stuffing. It came with a very thick gravy and a few pieces of crackling.
Week 2: Tuckers
I walk past this place, in the Minories, fairly regularly. It does sandwiches and hot food. I decided to try the all day breakfast for £5 which had bacon, egg, sausage, black pudding, beans, toast, hash brown and tomatoes. It also came with a cup of tea. It was good value and very filling.
Week 3: Wasabi
I needed to walk to the shops to pick up something I had ordered from PC World so I put the postcode for the High Street into Wheeldecide. It kept coming up with places in the Palisades, which is closed for refurbishment, so I decided to go to Wasabi, in New Street Station, instead.
I had been wanting to go there since it opened. I chose one of their salmon sushi boxes, which came with a couple of spicy chicken skewers.
They have a wide range of sushi and bento boxes, with rice and noodles. I'll have to revisit to try something else.
Apple Sauce Hot Chocolate Brownies part 2
|Story location: Home / Blog / food_and_drink /
I made a second batch of the apple sauce and drinking chocolate brownies. This time I added a handful of dried cherries to the mix. I also used half apple pureé and half olive oil, since I only had half a cup of apple pureé in the fridge (the rest is in the freezer).
When the brownies came out of the oven, I sprinkled 50g of plain chocolate over the top and waited for it to melt before spreading it over the top.
I took the cakes to work the share out and the everyone seemed to like them.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Hi all,
I'm quite new to these forums, and running in general. I started running last year and did my first 10k in October, followed by my first half marathon a couple weeks ago (generally a 10-10:30 pace). I'm following a plan of 3 runs a week (one short, one medium, one long) with the goal of running Brighton marathon in April.
I did my latest long slow run yesterday afternoon - 14 miles (at around an 11-min pace). Since then I've had a sharp, almost bruise-like pain in my left knee, every time I put weight on it when it's bent (e.g. sitting down, going up/down stairs, etc.) I applied some anti-inflammatory gel but the knee isn't sore to the touch - it's more of an internal thing. I've had some slight niggles in my knees/ankles over my past couple of longer runs, but the discomfort has never lasted once the run ends.
Does anyone know what I might have done to it!?
Thanks in advance!
Not me sorry. You sound to be describing something I've experienced, but that went away in a week or two. Good luck.. hope someone else can help.

The muesli is very thin, so if you soak it in milk for a little longer, it has the consistency of oatmeal.

It's dry and unsweetened. So it's up to us to add things to it for a better taste. Otherwise, can't beat the price/quantity ratio. Even though it doesn't say organic, since it comes from Switzerland, there's still a chance it's purer than what's here. P.S. You can add hot water, and soy or almond milk, to improve the taste.

Very little nuts in this, wish there's more like the picture on the packet. It's just about ok, nothing spectacular, not even that tasty. I am giving it 3 stars, but i wish I can give 3 and half stars, because it doesn't deserve 4 star rating

My mother forwarded yet another religious spam email. This one was titled Billy Graham's Prayer For Our Nation and ends with a call for a return to "One Nation Under God". According to Snopes it isn't from Billy Graham but that doesn't really matter much regarding the intent of the email. The general text of the email sent to me is in that Snopes article if you're interested.
Taken on face value as simply human values what does most of these items have to do with anything written in the Bible and a supposed dictated word of God? Does that book really give an exact recipe for a Christian-only government and such things as the nuances between a government sponsored form of charity and an overly dependent welfare system that is detrimental to society? The Bible does say certain things are punishable by death (usually a stoning) so how is the killing of an abortionist contrary to the general morality of the Bible? I do believe in the wisdom and values of the forefathers of this country but they didn't create One Nation Under God as this email implied. Kenneth Davis had a good article on CNN recently about this. One Nation is inclusive and Under God is exclusionary so this phrase never made any sense to me.
Look at this fantasy art piece I came across while searching for information about One Nation Under God. I found this to be hilarious because the artist honestly believes in Jesus as the origin of our government and the Constitution for the people even though the Constitution has zero mentions of God, Jesus, or any creator reigning over "We The People". It is a great visual depiction of what a Christian nation would be if one existed because the Constitution would have dictated the leadership of God and Jesus over the People as central to the government with a setup for worship and fidelity to that specific structure. This contrasts to the actual setup we have of a self-governing organization of checks and balances that were an attempt to protect individual liberties and societal justice instead of defining an exact and unchanging morality dictated by a religious leadership under the direction of One Nation under One God and following the literal word of the Bible as the rule of law.
Oh well, most people get these emails and just say it sounds good and it matches with the feel-good things they think they believe. This is cotton candy for the mind that reinforces "God is good, humans are evil, and we should listen to the God-believing humans to tell us how to think and what we should do with our resources." The same goes true for politics and I wish people wouldn't consider themselves Republicans or Democrats even if politicians are doing it. We should actually think for ourselves without labels while expecting the same from our political leaders. If we really had One Nation Under God in practice we could have just one political party because the religious right version of the Republican Party would be the only one true party needed under God.
Instead, since we are in practice a country of E Pluribus Unum (Out of Many, One) then we really should have more choices and parties representing our political beliefs and all of the variations in the reality of humanity. It seems like we've been reduced down to a country of Out of Two, One with one side of that really pushing One Nation Under God to kick out the views of the other half of the two.

Washington, Oct 20 (ANI): Two people have been arrested for an unbelievable attempted jewelry store heist in El Paso, Texas.
Security camera footage showed the 44-year-old Noemi Duchene and 45-year-old Luis Del Castillo arriving outside of Estate and New Jewelry late Tuesday morning with Del Castillo pushing Duchene in her wheelchair.
Duchene then got out of her chair, covered her head and upper body with a large black trash bag and entered the jewelry store while Del Castillo waited with the chair.
Once inside Duchene pulled a kitchen knife and demanded "everything".
Storeowner Linda Bradely decided not to comply and drew a stun gun in response.
"We're chasing each other around like keystone cops," Wbir.com quoted Bradely as saying.
"I knew I could outrun her because she was obviously not very quick," Bradely added. store customer eventually tackled Duchene and held her until police arrived.
Del Castillo was still waiting outside with the wheelchair and was also arrested. Investigators say the pair lives in an apartment across the street from the jewelry store. (ANI)

Nurbergring seems to be sore spot for some people and I hear about the dislike to outright hatred of it, online as well.
I really believe there is a serious benefit to learning this track for developing car control and to help stave of alzheimers in the process.
I use it as a warm up and test for new cars and before I go online to compete.
It's a great course because it's a narrow demanding course that gives you enough of a challenge without needing other cars on the track. It's also difficult to memorize so that each time you need to stay alert rather then just getting into a 2+ turn rhythm of a regular road course.
The faster the car, the more your car control reflex will develop but forget the Redbull X if it's to much to handle.
Think of it as a country road with no speed limit and no possibility of hitting a cow or a mailbox.
Do you know where the eagle sits?
Can't agree enough with what you wrote. I'm not able to play GT5 on a consistent basis, (sometimes a weeks or even months will go by before I can play) so my skills fall off. First thing I generally do when I get back to it (prior to entering an event or after I fail miserably a few times) is several laps around Nurburgring to remind myself of the nuances I fogot during the downtime.
Yeah, I know each course has it's particulars, but Nur. seems to capture many of the critical lessons all at once.
No, I have no idea where the eagle sits!
Re: Average Age of GT5 players?[ Edited ]
Where the eagle sits...
I'm asking because I don't know where it was but I have seen it! Did they take it out? Who is "they" anyways?
I'm sure its on the Ring around turn 5 to 10 in a tree on the left. I looked for it but i'm starting to think it was on GT4.?
This old age thing is getting to me!
Re: Average Age of GT5 players?[ Edited ]

Re: Average Age of GT5 players?
See23, I was surprised at how well the X-2011 behaved around Circuit de Sarthe in the rain. I stayed off the walls, and stll managed to lap the field 3 times in the first 10 laps.
Then I ran out of gas. THAT is a long drive to the pits from Dunlop.....
Re: Average Age of GT5 players?
All that down force in the rain! Could you imagine (in real life) the spray off the back of it, sucking the water up off the track!?

a cable'd connection will always operate more reliably than wi-fi. you are losing packets of info due to interference and loading a web-page you wouldn't notice it. but in a game those lost packets can cause havoc as the game tries to figure out where on the track you're supposed to be and whose right next to you and decide whether a collision should occur.
if you can't relocate the wireless gateway to plug into it, get a really long cable

Dr. was rushed by his nurse and receptionist
My whole visit was just fine, I was on time at 1:15 called back at almost 1:25 waited another 15 min or so for the doc. He hadn't been with me for more than 15 mins and his nurse reminded him he had 3 patients waiting. Within the next 5 min his receptionist stuck her head in and reminded him he was 45 mins behind. I thought this was very unprofessional. If they had that many people waiting after just being back from lunch for 50 mins and he supposidly was 45 mins behind. Sounds like someone needs to get a handle on the scheduling, and he needs to remind them who the Dr. is. My visit was informative and good and I appreciated how I was being treated, right up until that time. I don't think 20 mins with a patient is excessive.

Karachi, May 10 (ANI): A suspected bomber was arrested at the Jinnah International Airport here after batteries and electrical circuits were found concealed in his shoes after a thorough check-up following a scanner alarm.
The man identified as Faiz Mohammad, 30, was scheduled to board a Thai International Airlines flight, No TG-507 for Muscat, The Nation reports.
Confirming the arrest, an airport security force official said Mohammed, who holds a diploma in civil engineering, was apprehended while he was being scanned at the airport before boarding the flight. The scanner sounded an alarm following which a suspicious object was detected hidden in his shoes.
During physical frisking, a device, fixed to his shoes, was recovered, which included four live batteries and a circuit with a switch, the official said.
Initial investigations have revealed that Mohammed hails from Manshera region of the North West Frontier Province (NWFP) and was employed in a construction company in Muscat.
He had returned to Pakistan to get his visa renewed. (ANI)

I can't wait for a fresh start after the disastrous 2016!
Strasbourg Christmas, an Augmented Reality
Strasbourgers in the Alsace region of France claim that they are the "Christmas Capital" of Europe so as a good muslim I went there to check.
Well, they keep saying it everywhere:
It was a very cold day but thousands of poeple were swarming the streets of this beautiful Alsatian city:
walking up and down narrow streets,
They have no pity for their babies fighting the cold,
maybe because they drink this mulled wine called "Vin Chaud" (hot wine) or "Gluehwein" (in german): a concoction usually prepared from red wine, heated and spiced with cinnamon sticks, vanilla pods, cloves, citrus and sugar. They sell it in every other stand on the big Christmas market in Strasbourg:
I saw my first chocolate covered "strawberry kababs":
Strasbourg is home to one of the most beautiful cathedrals in Europe:
where Jesus' birth will be celebrated this year with pomp and thousands of little ornaments made in Alsace (read China):
The market is not close to the big church but right at its feet with Santa Claus himself selling some of the stuff:
Here is Alsace in all its glory (albeit in miniature):
and colors,
with little chefs baking for the big birthday (Jesus', remember?)
and big chefs of course making macaroons:
but for people with a weakness for great pastry I have a better treat:
The above are Christmas Buches but Christian Patisserie—that I discovered a couple of years ago on my first trip to Alsace—is known for its chocolate:
and anything related to it:
Chocolate not being on my repertoire much, I opted for the fabulous chestnut cream "Mont Blanc":
I went to the cathedral where a thousand Santas were busy clicking away on their cameras,
and a thousand candles promised to fulfill wishes…
By the end of the day, I was one of the few without a red hat,
Alsace's emblem is a stork—you see them everywhere:
I couldn't resist buying my first real mistletoe:
and looking at the holly,
I went to see the Fine Arts Museum:
where I revisited "the beautiful woman from Strasbourg":
and the fabulous dutch still life paintings and my favorite Kessel insects of course:
By the time I got out it was getting dark but the market was still hustling and bustling,
This whole trip almost made me forget Copenhagen's climate summit, the American Health Bill disaster and the Swiss minarets…
Have a golden Christmas everybody!
Richard Neutra, the mid century champion
A few years ago, Richard Neutra, the quintessential California modernist architect, made my stay in downtown Los Angeles worthwhile.
Los Angeles' main library had an exhibition of Neutra's sketches and drawings and I was able to take some pictures to share with you—these are my interpretations of his work:
I love these largely horizontal airy structures; they are so "modern", you forget they were designed in 1920's…
I admit that I had to leave California to miss it and nothing says more Los Angeles than this beautiful photo of the Stahl House by Pierre Koenig, another modernist architect:
the photographer, Julius Shulman, became famous by this one black and white shot from 1960 (above) and its color version (below):
Born in Vienna, Neutra (1892 – 1970) was influenced by his fellow Austrians, Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele (both died in 1918 when Neutra was 26 years old); this little painting of his could have been created by Klimt himself:
Another great influence on the young Neutra was Frank Lloyd Wright who invited Neutra to work in his studio in Taliesen. They rank him second only to the great Lloyd Wright in American architecture. Other early influences were Louis Sullivan (he coined "form follows function"), Otto Wagner and Erich Mendelsohn.
This sketch is the Van der Leeuw House solarium (complete with bathing beauties) that Neutra envisioned to build for himself:
Chairs (this one from 1919) weren't the only things besides buildings that Neutra designed,
he even designed aluminum buses!
Richard Neutra, the romantic engineer, was passionate about art, technology and architecture—I love this drawing of a cellist playing Bach:
Leaving the cold winters and the world wars of Europe, Neutra took refuge in the sunny climate and rich landscape of Southern California; with his cool and sleek modern style he coined the term biorealism: "the inherent and inseparable relationship between man and nature."
You eat your values
"You eat your values – don't let them be fast, cheap and easy" says Alice Waters, the revolutionary chef and cookbook author. Maybe it's my age but I've started to think seriously about what I eat; junk food has never been a sin of mine but Waters has pushed me to eat better.
I've been too lazy to go to Farmer's markets up to a few months ago but I am hoping that my health is worth a little more money and a little inconvenience. Cooking becomes a pleasure again when you use fresh ingredients like in this simple Thai chicken and mint dish.
Alice Waters has started the "Slow Food" program that teaches children to make the right decision about how and what they eat.
This doesn't mean of course that great food shouldn't be appreciated just because it's not green enough. I was at a friend of mine's today for a fabulous sunday brunch that ended with these great cakes made by her talented sister, Mona; The chocolate mousse and the baby kiwi cakes were divine.
I took a tour of the kitchen and w o w…
Just look at these pastry molds:
it's true that a beautiful kitchen like this one makes you want to cook but I have had very delicious food coming out of small/dark/chaotic kitchens in my life (just dare to go to almost any parisian café's kitchen)…
Today' s food crisis makes us forget that good food like flowers should be affordable to everyone. As Jeffrey Sacks says "you can't tell people who are dying of hunger in Africa to tighten their belts, as if they had belts"!
I would like to finish the post with these pictures instead of some starving kids in Africa which is approaching a meltdown with the crazy Mugabe and the criminal Janjawids.
How did she go from chocolate mousse to Darfur? I bet that you didn't see it coming…
Happy hopeful new year 2016!
Year 2015 was an Annus horribilis for the world; let's hope 2016 will be better.
And here are the previous years' inspirations! 😉
Merry Christmas 2015!

Star Trek's elegant Okudagrams
Michael Okuda is a graphic designer responsible for the gorgeous interfaces you see in Star Trek films.
Being a Trekkie since I was watching the series in Iran as a child and later an avid fan of the Next Generation, my design sensibilities have been shaped subconsciously by Okuda:
I am a User Experience designer and create interfaces every day but Michael Okuda keeps creeping back to the simplest flow chart I make!
The whole beauty of Star Trek bridge was thanks to these otherworldly interfaces we have been exposed to; Jean-Luc Picard added the spice. 😉
You would see commander Ryker interact with LCARS (Library Computer Access/Retrieval System) more often than Picard:
Here is the holodeck interface where you can choose between scuba diving or a conversation with Einstein:
Okudagrams came in different colors and shapes but always intriguing and in the time when you couldn't stop the film to absorbe the image, I was always pissed at not getting enough of these ephemeral beauties!
Here is another one:
and the good doctor in front of the DNA comparison scan:
Long before Tom Cruise bedazzled us in Minority Report and the impractical but exquisite 3D interfaces he reacted with, Star Trek introduced us to what could be done and now is being done and used by millions:
They even had an LCARS mobile!
All of these images are not from Okuda of course; many have been created as an homage to ST and Okuda by fans.
U.S.S. Enterprise in all its glory:
Okuda designed logos for a number of NASA missions and programs including the STS-125 mission of Space Shuttle Atlantis to repair the Hubble Space Telescope. NASA has always been more of a fan of Star Trek than Star Wars!
So Okuda received the NASA Exceptional Public Service Medal.
Again different variations of Tricorder or the multifunction hand-held device used for sensor scanning, data anlysis and recording data. A smartphone!
Even the old generation of Star Trek had its own Okudagrams:
I like this one about the shuttles:
The next one even has a Facebook and Twitter button! 😉
Can't get enough of these:
I am looking forward to reading "Make it so, Interaction Design Lessons from Science Fiction". I learned about the book listening to UXpod with Chris Noessel.

Hi, I have a regular app in my Tomcat server, based on the request/response paradigm. I need some processes tu run at some specific intervals, lets say after 30 minutes of some events, or maybe every 30 minutes. Is there a way to do that on Tomcat, to schedule events? I don't want to try tying this process to the requests, because it would make them run slower, and it would run twice at the same time if two requests arrive almous simultaneously.

During his 13 seasons that produced 11 NBA championships for the Boston Celtics, no player was ever tougher than Bill Russell. So maybe the NBA owners and players should listen to that legend when he says it's the over-bearing hard-liners on both sides that need to back down if the lockout is going to be settled.
Russell tells CBSSports.com that a deal "will not come from the hard-liners on either side. I think they all know that."
He added that: "I have this theory that hard-liners are like true believers. And true believers think that any compromise is a retreat. And moving forward, that doesn't cut it."
Russell said the name-calling -- including an attorney for the union saying players were being treated like "plantation workers" -- needs to stop.
Said Russell:
"I think the whole deal is not about black and white. It's about money, OK? I don't see any signs of being greedy. It's a typical negotiation and that's all it is. And there are a couple of reasons it's difficult, because there's hard-liners on both sides.
"But to me, the name-calling or vilifying the other side is a non-issue. All that is is a distraction -- a distraction from the task at hand, which is reaching an agreement that neither side will probably be completely happy with. But that's the art of compromise."

An ever-changing restaurant and bar on the Selfridges rooftop.
Please note, Vintage Salt has now changed names to Forest Restaurant and Bar. Time Out Food & Drink editors, Apr 2016.
Every summer now, the folks behind Q Grill kit out the Selfridges roof terrace above Oxford Street with a new theme and menu. But visit just for cocktails at the Drift Bar to take full advantage of 2015's tongue-in-cheek seaside theme. The look is brighter than a stick of rock, with the roof dressed with beach balls, deck chairs, fishing nets and adorable seaside huts straight out of St Ives. Postcards pinned to the walls show dreamy Cornwall climes for an overall nostalgia hit.
There's not much to see from the bar side of the roof terrace – the views are reserved for restaurant goers. But for people watching, it's good for in-the-know shoppers and media types from businesses nearby hoping to escape the throngs of Oxford Street tourists. The service on our visit was warm, friendly and occasionally even funny.
The drinks menu is enticing in range as well as seeming almost reasonably priced when compared with the offerings at other rooftop spots. Most cocktails cost £10 or just over, and use on-trend spirits and in-season flavours. The G&Tea in the Afternoon (£11) sees a generous dollop of gin and tonic sorbet floating on the top, blended perfectly with cold earl grey tea, lemon and gin. Sipping from a cup and saucer doesn't feel out of place in this twee British setting. For absolute refreshment from a shopping trip down below, order a Champagne popsicle for £7.

Poor service here, wouldn't go back and certainly wouldn't take anyone you're trying to impress. After standing at reception for 5 minutes while the receptionist took a phone call, I explained that I and my guests were there for coffee and afternoon tea however she cut me off and simply pointed down a long hallway and said 'that way'. We were not greeted in the restaurant and after looking around uncertainly we chose one of the cute looking beach hut booths outside. We were eventually brought a menu but were told when we ordered cream tea that we couldn't have food outside. So the receptionist had to go and find us a table in the restaurant (if only she hadn't cut me off when I said we wanted afternoon tea). We were placed at a noisy table next to the waiters' servery and different menus were eventually delivered. We waited so long to order that my guests tried to flag down a waiter but no one would make eye contact. Eventually we ordered our afternoon tea, which to be fair was delicious, if overpriced. Unfortunately my guests (in-laws) commented that the coffee was terrible. Our water glasses were never filled. Our waiter seemed to be attempting to be congenial and funny but came across as a bit snide. All in all I wouldn't recommend.
Went to their alfresco bar on a sunny evening for drinks. I asked the manager if there is any free table and he just said 'no!'. Then I saw an empty little hut and I asked if there was reserved as nobody is in there. So he said "you should hurry up and get in there then" and he walked off. Fine. So I went in and sat down to wait for my husband. 5-10mins later, nobody asked if I need a drink so I went to the bar counter and asked if I could order a glass of wine. The waiter said someone will come to me and I just have to wait. So I said ok and went back. Sat down for another 10mins...15mins... Still nobody. I went to the bar and even before I could say anything, the bartender just shot me an impatient look and said "we are very busy, we will come to you ok??'. Finally someone came to take orders. My glass of wine arrived 20mins later after I see everyone who ordered after me had been served. I had given up on service by then. My husband came to meet me and was met by a rude hostess in the lift telling him "doesn't matter your wife is up there with a table, we are full and you can't go up!". He managed to somehow argued his way up and was again met with very bad service at the bar. This place is not even posh but had the most snobbish and patronising waiters ever!! And the manager was just busy entertaining either his friends/regulars... If maybe he could help out on a busy fri night, we might get our drinks earlier.
good place
When you come from nice (and expensive) shopping in Selfridges and go up to the 5th floor in the Vintage Salt, you have a certain expectation. Unfortunately I had a bad experience with the food here. The service and atmosphere here is great, but the food wasn't, at least for me. The young audience might not be so critical, but the older probably is.

During the summer of 2015 SCARPA athletes Graham Zimmerman and Scott Bennett spent two months in the Pakistani Karakoram in search of new routes in one of the world's truly stunning ranges with one of the Karakoram's most seasoned climbers, Steve Swenson of the American Alpine Club. The amount of planning and training that goes into an expedition in this corner of the world is massive, then everything has to line up just perfectly for the actual send. During this trip, Graham and Scott achieved two impressive first ascents including the Changi Tower (6500m) and a new route up the south face of K6 (8126m). We asked Graham to put together a short photo recap of the incredible trip.

2929Re: [rootsradicals] Re: tires
- Feb 4, 2008If anyone's into winter and snow riding, I recommend Hakkapellitta W106 700c tires. 106 Steel Carbide studs on each wheel, they perform excellent over ice, frozen snow, and cut right through powder and slush. Be wary of road salt with these however, as that will cause a decrease in friction and you have a danger of slipping on top of sand or salt.

Ritchey Innovaders are another tire which is similar to the Avocet
tires, they're treaded, but with an angled tread that remains *very*
fast and well rolling even on pavement. I have a pair of these, and
despite how treaded they appear, from the rolling side they're really
quite smooth and perform really well on pavement. They really handle
and perform exceptionally well in just about everything but deep mud
and snow.
I would suggest these as an alternative if people are having a hard
time getting a hold of the Avocet Cross II tires.

A council close to an area where a badger cull is set to go ahead to tackle TB in cattle will not support culling on its land.
A majority of elected members at Tewkesbury Borough Council in Gloucestershire said they did not want to see the controversial measure used.
At a meeting of the council last night the councillors decided against passing a motion that would have backed the Government scheme.
The motion, which was put forward by the overview and scrutiny committee, said: "This council recognises that bovine TB is a terrible disease affecting a number of different animal species.
"This council agrees that bovine TB needs to be eradicated but that, until a viable, deployable and effective vaccine for both badgers and cattle is available, a cull should proceed."
But councillors did not vote on an earlier motion to "not allow badgers to be culled on land which Tewkesbury Borough Council owns, manages or controls".
Farmers in west Gloucestershire have been granted the first licence for a pilot cull of badgers, a protected species, in order to tackle tuberculosis in cattle.
The exact area of the cull has not been made public amid concerns over protests.
Last week, Forest of Dean District Council voted to ban any culling of badgers on land it controls.
Supporters of the cull say the move is necessary to stop TB in cattle because the wild animal spreads the disease to livestock, and the pilot will allow farmers to shoot up to 70% of badgers over an area of 300 square kilometres.
A long-term study found that culling over a number of years on a large scale could reduce the incidence of TB in cattle herds by 16%.
Opponents say a badger cull will not have a significant effect in reducing the disease in livestock, and want the focus to be shifted on to vaccination.
More than 140,000 people have signed a national e-petition against the cull.

LADY Gaga joins the Rolling Stones, to rehearse her role in their final 50th
anniversary concert tonight.
The giants of rock and pop will collide at Newark, New Jersey's Prudential
Center – when Gaga joins the band on stage for the last of their
transatlantic extravaganzas, dubbed One More Shot.
And the 24-year-old singer is determined to make sure the collaboration goes
down smoothly – running through her cameo with the rockers in rehearsals
last night.
The rock legends dressed down in comfortable clobber for the practice session
– while Gaga, ever the professional, opted for an odd all-black ensemble
that made her look like a nun.
Her role in the show is supposed to be top secret – but Gaga has hinted on
Twitter she'll be joining Mick Jagger for a duet of their hit Gimme Shelter.
She told followers on Thursday: "Gimme Shelter. It just two nights away!!
🙂 Can't wait to sing with the Rolling Stones on Saturday Night. In 2007 I
was stripping to them."
It's clearly going to be a huge thrill for Gaga, who started out as a gogo
dancer in seedy New York nightclubs.
She'll have a little help making sure the tour ends with a bang – the Stones
are also expected to be joined onstage by rockers Black Key and local legend
Bruce Sprinsteen.

Air America Bankrupt - Times Again Ignores Loan from Boys & Girls Club
A choice example of liberal hypocrisy is again ignored by the Times.
Published: 12/18/2006 4:31 PM ET
By Clay Waters
Monday's front-page Business story on Air America's bankruptcy (better late than never, given the left-wing radio network filed for bankruptcy protection two months ago) by Elizabeth Jensen and Lia Miller is headlined "After Bankruptcy Filing, Recriminations Fly at Air America."
Michelle Malkin reminds us that Brian Maloney at the Radio Equalizer blog had the story - including the tidbit about host Al Franken possibly running for Senate from Minnesota - long ago.
The Times does have loads of details about the business mistakes made by the network, but strangely, nothing at all about the investigation by the New York State attorney general's office into the Bronx-based Gloria Wise Boys and Girls Club, whose mission it is toserve poor children, but made improper loans of $625,000 to the left-wing radio network that have apparently yet to be repaid by Air America.
Yet this choice example of liberal hypocrisy (rich liberals stealing from poor children!) doesn't make the Times today.
Perhaps the reporters made the mistake of relying on the paper's archive of Air America stories, given that the Times almost completely ignored the story when it broke in August 2005.

FEBRUARY 7--Bankrupt and about to lose Al Franken, its marquee star, Air America Radio is set to change hands for the bargain price of $4.25 million, according to new court documents. The sales figure was disclosed in a purchase agreement filed yesterday in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in New York. According to the agreement, the deal between Air America's owner, Piquant LLC, and a firm controlled by Stephen L. Green, a New York realtor, calls for Green's firm to repay up to $3.25 million in loans provided to Air America after the liberal radio network filed for Chapter 11 protection last October (the company listed debts of $20.2 million). Green's company will also give Piquant LLC $500,000 and pay off up to $500,000 in network debts (the bulk of which, $349,000, is owed to the network's Manhattan landlord). Green's bid topped by more than $1.25 million the nearest offer received by Air America, according to a motion filed along with the purchase agreement. An excerpt from that motion can be found below. Court documents do not specify how many bids were received for the network, though a filing notes that 'more than ten interested parties' signed nondisclosure agreements and were allowed to review confidential network financial and corporate records. While Green controls the corporation purchasing Air America, two of the firms that were pre-bankruptcy investors in the radio network will 'collectively own a minority interest' in the Green company. The Air America purchase is expected to be finalized at a court hearing in the next week. Franken, who is planning to run next year for a U.S. Senate seat from Minnesota, is scheduled to do his final Air America show on February 14.
