There is an Arduino Yun compatible board on Kickstarter right now. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/706167548/dominoio-an-open-hardware-wifi-platform-for-things
This is yet another angle, it is backed by some of the core OpenWRT developers so it gets excellent support in OpenWRT. It has full CE/FCC/IC certification and it is designed by qualified RF engineers. So who gets to do the Yun? one of the Arduino groups or the OpenWRT people?
Personally I'm going with the Domino since it is way harder to get the 802.11 stuff right than the Arduino side.
Third CPU is the EM357. It is a Cortex-M3 and capable of running user code too.
Light sensor is for the optical smoke detector?
Why do you need three CPUs? K60 has Ethernet and they never used it.
What does a Figaro TGS-5342 cost? Nobody has them for sale.
Like to know about antenna too
Also curious about how temp is measured. It is possible to do it with the PIR. Is that what they are doing? Or is there a thermistor in there somewhere?
Google on thermostat power stealing.
Thermostats have three to six relays in them for switching the 24VAC circuits from the HVAC equipment. I don't see any relays in the photo. So they must be using something solid state like a TRIAC to do the switching. What are they using?
What switches the HVAC circuits? FET or Triac?
So what is inside? CPU, wifi chip, flash, ram? More photos?
No public wish lists :(

Older students can get really fancy and make their shamrock mask using paper mache. Use very thick paper -- even a lightweight cardboard and cut the shamrock shape out of that. Then layer small pieces of newspaper dipped in paper mache (wallpaper paste, water and glue) all over the shamrock shape. Let dry and paint.
You can also glue all sorts of wonderful found objects onto your shamrock mask. OR you could cut out tiny shamrocks and glue them on the mask for decoration as well.
Use your imagination and see what you come up with.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 9/6/2014 (1110 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Tell us something we didn't know: Bug traps throughout Brandon caught more mosquitoes this week than last week.
However, the numbers are still not high enough to trigger fogging with malathion. And the good news is that city staff say there are not very many ready to hatch.
The city says that Sunday trap counts averaged 246 mosquitoes, followed by 149 mosquitoes Monday. That's up from 210 and 31 a week prior.
The highest count over the past two days was in the cemetery, where 482 of the biting bugs were nabbed on Sunday. The lowest level was 53 mosquitoes caught near the Brandon University gym.
A "bad catch" prevented tallying the numbers from the Canada Crescent trap, but overall the numbers were higher on Sunday and lower Monday.
Considering other factors, like larval life cycles and weather forecasts, the city calculates an Adulticiding Factor Analysis level of 12 for this week. That's up from 10 last week, and nine the week before.
The AFA has to hit at least 15 (out of 18) for two consecutive counts before the city will consider sending out the malathion trucks, although fogging can also be triggered by finding an average of more than 1,000 mosquitoes in the traps, or if any individual trap catches more than 2,000.
The city may also fog if ordered to by the province, for example to combat West Nile virus.
With relatively cool weather expected this week, the city says there are currently no plans to prepare for fogging.
But people who want a buffer zone around their property in the event of fogging should apply in advance. With name, address, phone number and proof of residency, they can apply for a buffer zone in person or in writing, and a medical certificate is not required.
Buffer zone applications are available online at brandon.ca or people can call 204-729-2148. Buffer zones do not apply if health-related fogging is ordered by the province.
Meanwhile, workers last week concentrated on larviciding — and it seems to be paying off. So far, they say they've seen very little larvae activity at test sites this week. They will continue to monitor larvae populations throughout the week, and will larvicide where necessary.

What is the asking price?
This is a discussion on Opinions on the Yugo M70 AK47 within the Defensive Rifles & Shotgun Discussion forums, part of the Related Topics category; I have a chance to buy a new in the box Yugo M70 underfold AK47. What is story on these Guns? Good quality?...
I have a chance to buy a new in the box Yugo M70 underfold AK47. What is story on these Guns? Good quality?
God & Guns!
What is the asking price?
"Without fear there can be no Courage!"
Buy it now that's a great price in this market IMO.
The Yugos are good quality but use some non-standard parts from what I've heard. They don't have chrome lined barrels. I am not an expert on AKs or anything, just have been reading about them a bit lately.
If it were me I'd buy it.
They have better fit and finish that Romanian WASR-10's, I can tell you that much about em. In this market that doesn't seem to be too bad of a choice. Does it have the fixed wooden stock or metal underfolding one?

Yugo's are good guns, buy it.
"Being a predator isn't always comfortable but the only other option is to be prey. That is not an acceptable option." ~Phil Messina
If you carry in Condition 3, you have two empty chambers. One in the weapon...the other between your ears.
Matt K.
They are built much much heavier than other Ak variants. They are not even in the same class as the WASR rifles IMO. I would compare them more to the Norinco/Polytech.
Never owned a Yugo, but I have handled and shot one with the ful stock. I do own a WASR and a Norinco.
When you've got 'em by the balls, their hearts & minds will follow. Semper Fi.
Cool! I thought it was good deal. I just wanted to make sure though. I read somewhere that most AK's have 1mm thick receiver and the Yugo's have a 1.5mm thick receiver. Sounds like its built like a tank!
God & Guns!
I have one and it's an excellent AK! If it is a Century, check the front sights to make sure they aren't canted. It is a common problem, but Century will fix them.
The receivers are 1.5mm thick, and the furniture is longer than "regular" AKs. There are a few other differences (a grenade launcher, for example); but otherwise it is very similar to my Nornico AK-47S.
That is a great price, as it is what I paid almost two years ago. If you don't buy it, send me the name and number of the seller as I would gladly snag it myself!
Cheers! M2

It's pretty good, specially if you like the Worms series.
I used to be pretty at Worms back in the day.. But ended up sucking at Gunbound for some reasons.. Still, it's rather fun.
Blank spaces are always awesome, right?
The only thing thats screwed up in this game is the buddy list, fixable glitches, and the lazy (sorry but I had to use this word) GM's in the game.
The rest are pretty good.
Yeah it's def. a great game!! You'll start, and instantly get addicted to it!!! lol
Well whatcha waiting for?? get to it~!!!

Seriously this game is amazing if you have friends to play with. As this is a team game friends make this game 100x more fun
I quit because all my friends quit. I also sold the Diamond wand for like 400 USD (I sold it too cheap -.-)
Give this game a try and if you make friends and join an active guild you will definitely have fun!

Additional unique fan enhancements, including other dining and tailgating options and exclusive in-game viewing content, are being planned by USC and will be announced prior to the season.
The Peristyle Club, located outside the east end of the Coliseum, will provide members with a one-of-a-kind pre- and post-game tailgating experience, including all-inclusive upscale food and beverage, a cash bar, shaded lounge seating, music and live sports on TVs. The Peristyle Club experience will be an arm's length away as the USC team enters the stadium during the pre-game Trojan Walk. The Peristyle Club will be open three hours prior to kickoff until an hour after the game ends.
Ten private Field Suites, seating 16 patrons on the field just feet from the action, will line the east end zone in front of the Sun Deck. Suite holders, who will access the field via the iconic Coliseum Peristyle stairs, will enjoy an unprecedented VIP experience. Field Suite holders have unlimited entry to the Peristyle Club, as well as to the Field Club.
The exclusive Field Club, adjacent to the Field Suites, will provide 100 members with a high-end, on-field experience, including food and beverage service. The Trojan football team's entrance into the stadium from the Trojan Walk will include passage through the Field Club, whose members also have access to the Peristyle Club.
For further information, or to reserve a spot in the new Field Suite, Field Club or Peristyle Club, contact the USC Premium Department at firstname.lastname@example.com. Access to the Field Suites, Field Club and Peristyle Club are available on a season or individual game basis.
The USC football team, under new coach Steve Sarkisian, returns 18 starters on offense and defense from a squad that went 10-4 last season. The Trojans open their 2014 campaign at home against Fresno State on Aug. 30 at 4:30 p.m.

The moment she lost me
Not long after the start of the Iraq war I found myself in an argument with a woman that I had once admired and respected. Up until this point we had many things in common. If we could have avoided politics we may have remained friends, but we couldn't and so we didn't.
When the inevitable confrontation began, I admit to being more than a bit worried. It wasn't that I felt my position was weak instead I found that I didn't have much confidence in my ability to articulate it.
Much to my surprise I held my own quite well. I didn't lose my cool and start ranting and raving at her although I was more than a little angry at the accusations she was making and there were times that I would concede she had valid questions to which I had no answers.
The biggest being why Iraq instead of Iran or North Korea? Because as far as threats to our national security it was hard to top these two countries and I found myself argeeing with her in principal for questioning the reasoning behind our military strategy.
But then it happened, that moment when all ground she had gained with me slipped from her grasp. She went into a mini tirade about Israel, she went so far as to connect the administrations support of the Jewish state to the war in Iraq. Suddenly I could no longer hear her and I lost all interest in trying to. She may have had more valid points to offer but I will never know as after that moment all her words even those that may have been sensible were muted and discarded as useless.
The anti Israel and Jews are bad no matter where they call home meme is so over played. The constant droning that Jews are responsible for all of the worlds ill's has made even the most valid criticisms of Israeli policy worth nothing more than being filed in the "here we go again" section of my brain.
Is there some genetic defect that causes even the most brilliant of minds to succumb to this disease of anti-Semitism? Is there no way to innoculate against this cancer's power of corruption?
My post is really about Cindy Sheehan.
I have been loathe to write even one word about her, although she has often been on my mind. She's had the power to conjure many emotions within me. I have felt empathy for her pain, I've felt fury at what I see as her exploitation by the most radical among us, I've been angry at her anti war and anti Bush rhetoric.
I would have never felt comfortable criticizing her because I can not possibly know the madness to which her grief has driven her, but now after her anti Israel remarks I find that I feel nothing for her at all. I can only wonder when it was that her crusade stopped being about her son Casey and became what it is today.
Like my former friend she has become a parody of all the ideals she claims to hold, it's just to bad she seems content to turn her son into one as well.
The following is a poem sent to me by Russ Vaugh, Although we may have reached this place from different stopping points, like me he has lost his patience and understanding with Mrs Sheehan.
A Useful Death
A mother's anguish turns to ire,
Her liquid tears to spears of fire,
A useful fool for the liberal Left,
All hatred now, no more bereft.
The honor which her son embraced,
Is now dishonored, now disgraced,
As his mother stands atop his grave,
From there to shriek, from there to rave.
Yes, some are maddened in their grief,
And grief can surely change belief;
But this woman's views, her family say,
Have long been held, long fore today,
Enabling Leftists to use her grieving,
For Moore deception, Moore deceiving.
I see this mother as a willing fool,
A useful Moorish Code Pinko tool.
As one who fought in another place,
I sorrow for this boy's disgrace,
By a zealot mother grafting grief
Stealing his brave deeds, an honor thief,
Usurping his valor to claim her share,
Five minutes of fame in Media's glare.
Her platform one you don't see often:
A dishonored, flag-draped, soldier's coffin.
I can hear Michael Moore muttering under his breath,
"Yeah, this was really a useful death."
Russ Vaughn
Wake up Mrs Sheehan, you have already lost so much and you are on the verge of losing more. Only this time you will not be able to claim it was taken from you, this time you are freely giving it up.
6 Responses to The moment she lost me
Yes, this Cindy Sheehan has seriously overplayed her hand. She's lost the sympany of all but the hard-core left. She's an embarrassment to herself.
Why Iraq and not Iran or the DPRK? Simple; you adjust your strategy for the circumstances. You use a different strategy depending on what you're up against. Not all situations are the same, thus you deal with each one differently. Now, if someone wants to say that our strategy with regards to country X is wrong, fine and well, let's debate it out. But don't tell me that we should deal with all countries in exactly the same manner. Please.
It therefore never ceases to amaze me how liberals can at once call President Bush "stupid", and at the same time ask why we don't use the same exact strategy against countries whose circumstances are vastly different. Who's being stupid here?
As fof the anti-Israel/Jewish tirade you had to endure…ugh. I actually think it's not so much anti-Semitism that drives such thinking as it is a lack of moral clarity.
The War on Terrorism is a joke!!! Our government searches old ladies boarding airplanes and makes a stink about tweezers on carry-ons while 3 million illegals cross the border yearly! Homeland Security is a charade. It is quite sad that so many Americans don't get pist off about this nonsense
Great post, Sherry.
patriot: TSA screeners search ANYONE who alarms and EVERY bag that is suspicious on the x-ray and EVERY passenger who has been selected by the airlines (that's right, the airlines) for extra screening. And the screeners smile, even at the most obnoxious of the people they are protecting – the frequent flyers who KNOW that they're not terrorists (of course, everyone KNOWS that they're not a terrorist).
Do you really think that 9/11-type hijackers are going to board a plane wearing traditional Arab garb and chanting verses from the Koran while they glare menacingly at the security people? Do you really think that every jihadi in the world has dusky skin, black hair and dark eyes?
The problem with profiling is that it sets up an obvious pattern for those who might wish to breach security. Patterns can be exploited.
Dread Pundit
Yes terrorists can take measures to avoid profiling. No one disputes this. It also misses the point. You've set up a straw man and had fun knocking him down.
And the point is that most terrorism is done by men aged 17-40. Most, but not all, are of Middle-Eastern origin.
They cannot disguise themselves as 70-year old asian women no matter how hard they try. Nor can they disguise themselves as Al Gore, who was once subjected to the extra-search/screening process (and was fool enough to be happy that "no one is exempt") .
Thus what we are asking for is common sense.
thanks guys but i don't see what the terror screening methods have to do with my post.
Great post. Cindy has lost my respect too. The anti-Semtism which seems to be at the core of much of the anti-war crowd is sickening. I too cannot understand how people can fall for such an illogical argument.

Proud parents always make the most objective observers, right?
Ndamukong Suh apparently thinks so, as he shrugged off any suggestions that he's become a dirty player, using his mother's opinion as proof.
"I'll consider myself a dirty player when my mom calls me a dirty player," Suh said Monday, according to The Associated Press.
Well then. I guess that's settled.
When asked about his open-handed punch of Logan Mankins on Saturday night, Suh even said the referee was on his side.
"[The referee] said in the future, I should let them handle those situations, but that he understood exactly what I was trying to do," Suh said.
Suh's image has come under fire a bit, after two questionable plays this preseason. There was the aforementioned altercation with Mankins from Saturday, and there was his hit on quarterback Andy Dalton that drew a $20,000 fine from the league. Last season, he was fined twice for hits on quarterbacks.
Sunday on Facebook, Suh said he "had a blast beating up on the Brady bunch."

MAC makeup artist Kristin Gallegos designed the look for Naeem Khan's Spring/Summer 2011 show. The makeup was inspired by 1990's Versace in Miami. The foundation was done using MAC Face and Body Foundation. It was applied a shade darker than each model's skintone and Mineralized Skin Finished was added to give a sun kissed glow. The face was highlighted with Pearl Sunshine Powder.
Gold Metal Remnant, a metallic gold shadow, was blotted on the lid and outside of the eye. A lighter shade, Dalliance, was used to highlight the brow bone and the inner corner of the eye. Dalliance is due to hit shelves in Spring 2011. Center Stage, a dark brown metallic shadow, was used under the eye to add a bit of depth and darkness while Gilded White Power Pencil was used to line the inner rim of the eye. Lashes were well defined using Haute and Naughty mascara on both the top and bottom lashes.
The apple of the cheeks were done in So sweet – So Easy Creme Blush to brighten up the face, compliment the bronze of the face and skin, as well as the intricately designed, jeweled and embroidered pieces in the line. A combination of lip products were incorporated to finish the look.
The bronzed skin, gold shadow with bold lashes and big hair, designed by Laurent Phillipon, was perfect to complete Naeem Khan's love affair with Miami.

Which type of wood is best for a privacy fence?
I am in the process of getting estimates for a privacy fence in my backyard. I have received estimates for fences built from Eastern Red Cedar, as well as Copperwood.
Can anyone tell me the advantages/disadvantages between these two types of lumber, and if you have a fence built from either of these two, how do you like it? Has it held up well over the years?
Jim R.
Willard, Missouri
In some places fences over 6' high are considered "spite fences". Books on Neighbor Law can help you with this.
And if the fence is right on the property line it becomes jointly owned with your neighbor.

Behind the Post-9/11 Transformation of the Financial District
The September 11 attacks destroyed 13 million square feet of office space in Lower Manhattan. That, and two recessions, led to a loss of 16,000 jobs south of Chambers Street, according to a report from the Alliance of Downtown New York. And yet the area has remained lively, as more and more people have chosen to make their homes there.
The decision to work or to live in the area hinged on many different factors.
In the aftermath, some companies shifted employees to other offices, while others went through mergers and downsizing in the years since. As to the residential side, even before the attacks, developers were converting old office buildings into apartments in Battery Park City and the Financial District. Since September 11, the federal government helped finance residential projects, such as the Liberty Bonds, to encourage people to stay and live in Lower Manhattan.
Here's a look at two individuals, and how their calculations and decisions have made the Financial District less financial and more residential.
DANIEL CHUNG, CEO of Fred Alger Management
Daniel Chung was 39 and the senior analyst for the technology sector, on September 11,2001. It was a post that, by his own reckoning, would not have put him close contention for the CEO's position. But the company's headquarters was on the 93rd floor of the North Tower. Alger's chief executive, David Alger and many other top executives were killed in the attacks. Chung survived because he was at a meeting in Midtown that morning. As the most senior manager to survive, he was quickly made chief executive.
"We were one of the hardest hit firms, in terms of the percentage of people we lost," Chung said. "Of the entire investment management team, there were only four of us who survived."
Chung considered moving the company back to Lower Manhattan, but rents, even in the dark days following September 11, were too high there. They were even higher in Midtown. So he settled on a turn-of-the century building at Fifth Avenue and 18th Street.

"Union Square has always been a special place," Chung said. "I thought it was a good area to be. It's convenient to uptown and downtown. I also looked uptown, where many of our competitors were. But that was more than twice the cost of here, sometimes up to three times."
In his haste to make sure the company survived, Chung didn't have time to make interior design decisions, and asked the architects simply to replicate the chairs and carpet that were in their office in the World Trade Center.
But he did make one conscious decision: he took the second and third floors.
JOHN AN, Battery Park City resident
People feared that no one would want to live in Lower Manhattan after the September 11 attacks, but the opposite has happened. The residential population in that area has grown by about 22,275 people in the past decade, according to Census data. And the newcomers are overwhelmingly wealthy. In 2009, the Census estimated that the median households in six of the seven census tracts there earned more than $100,000 annually.
John An, an architectural consultant, moved into The Visionaire, a new high rise on Little West Street, with his wife two years ago, when they were expecting their first child. They wanted the open space that Battery Park City provided — and the convenience to all the subway lines that run through Lower Manhattan.

"We both didn't want to move out of Manhattan, and so this was our best kind of suburban option," he said.
Even though his building is just a few blocks south of the World Trade Center, An says that he rarely associates his neighborhood with the terrorist attacks — except every September, when the Tribute in Light — the two illuminated columns that stretch into the sky — are set up on a garage just across West Street.
"I see how the community really comes together and celebrates or remembers these events," An said. "That's the aspect that really touches me a lot."

The question is always who to contact when you receive unusual traffic from a host. Here are the methods GIAC analysts use.
Hubert Weikert suggest that the simplest way to query all the whois databases is to use a 'whois proxy' like http://www.geektools.com/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi
This program automaticaly finds the right registry or whois service based on the query.
Patrick Oonk suggests:You might like the whois from http://www.linux.it/~md/software/, which is very smart and knows where to look for what you are searching. Give it a try, I never leave home without it :)
Also, http://www.abuse.net/lookup.phtml is very handy to look up abuse contacts.
Unix users may want to try the following techniques:
One can use DNS to find a contact for an IP address. This is done by looking for the contact listed in the "Start Of Authority" for the IP number or name. Assuming you are starting with the IP number, use the command:
don> dig -x AAA.BB.CC.DDD soaIf you have an IP name, omit the "-x" and use the command:
dig host.name soaLook for the "AUTHORITY RECORDS:" information that looks like this:
;; AUTHORITY RECORDS:What you are looking for here is the info in the same location as root.XXXXXXXXX.XXXX.XXX.XX. above. To contact the SOA for the DNS domain, change the first "dot" to an "at", and send your gripe-mail there. E.g.
CC.BB.AAA.in-addr.arpa. 28800 SOA ns1.XXX.XX. root.XXXXXXXXX.XXXX.XXX.XX. (
2000021700 ; serial
3600 ; refresh (1 hour)
900 ; retry (15 mins)
604800 ; expire (7 days)
28800 ) ; minimum (8 hours)
mail email@example.com you don't have dig, but you do have nslookup, the sequence of commands:
set type=soa
- this example assumes you are starting with an IP address. If you have a hostname, replace "DDD.CC.BB.AAA.in-addr.arpa." with "host.name".
- the numbers in the address are reversed. If you want to lookup 10.1.2.3 this way, the 3rd line would be 220.127.116.11.in-addr.arpa.
To use the registries, one can use a web browser but I find it faster and easier to use "whois". Unless I know where the host is registered I always start off at arin with the following command:
whois -h whois.arin.net 10.1.2.3Now I'm your typically lazy Unix type so I have the following aliases defined to make life easier for myself:
alias arin"/usr/ucb/whois -h whois.arin.net"So all I have to type is:
alias ripe"/usr/ucb/whois -h whois.ripe.net"
alias apnic "/usr/ucb/whois -h whois.apnic.net"
alias jpnic "/usr/ucb/whois -h whois.nic.ad.jp"
alias aunic "/usr/ucb/whois -h whois.aunic.net"
alias milnic "/usr/ucb/whois -h whois.nic.mil"
alias govnic "/usr/ucb/whois -h whois.nic.gov"
alias krnic "/usr/ucb/whois -h whois.krnic.net"
arin XX.X.X.XLook for "Coordinator:" and there should be at least one way to contact them listed, and often an e-mail address, a telephone number, and a fax number are given. Sometimes the address you are dealing with is not listed in ARIN, but ARIN will tell you where to get the info you need, e.g
don> arin XXX.XX.XXX.XXX European Regional Internet Registry/RIPE NCC (NETBLK-RIPE-C)So now I try ripe, and get an e-mail address from there:
These addresses have been further assigned to European users.
Contact information can be found in the RIPE database, via the
WHOIS and TELNET servers at whois.ripe.net, and at

Got cold leftovers ready to eat after class? Running late to midterm?
Step 1) Rush to class. REALLY use that turbo. You have just successfully arrived at the school parking lot with 2 minutes to spare.
Step 2) Place leftovers, preferably in aluminium foil, on top of the turbo heatshield. As so:
Step 3) Go to class having barely studied. When you get back your food might be warm enough to maybe eat. Enjoy =D

Boeing's Freer Bird: 787 Gets a License for Longer FlightsBy
The long-troubled Boeing 787 Dreamliner got some good news Wednesday with the federal certification for longer flights over water.
The Federal Aviation Administration's extended operations (ETOPs) certificate means that airlines can fly the 787 as far as 5½ hours from an airport, instead of the previous three-hour certification. That will permit new routings, such as a nonstop flight from Los Angeles to Melbourne that United plans to begin in October.
It also means that newer, longer-range version of the 787, called the 787-9, can fly polar routes such as those used for flights between the U.S. and top business destinations such as Hong Kong, Singapore, Beijing, and Shanghai. Those routes across the North Pole require the extended operations certification because safe diversion airports in case of an emergency are few and far between.
To date, most 787 flights by such North American carriers as United, Aeromexico, and Air Canada are on North Pacific routes to Japan and China. Current 787 flights between North America and Europe and Africa are generally routed not too far from Greenland and Iceland.
The 787 was introduced into commercial service in 2011 after several years of delays. It quickly ran into trouble when its lithium-ion battery packs were found to overheat and potentially burn, leading the FAA to ground the plane for three months last year while Boeing redesigned the battery system.
The FAA's ETOPs certification dates to 1985, when airlines began ordering longer-range aircraft and jet engine reliability improved dramatically.

Daniel Bard, Tim Federowicz and Adam Warren were all recalled by their respective teams this weekend.
Daniel Bard joined the Red Sox after making 31 appearances with the Pawtucket Red Sox from June through August. During his time in Pawtucket, Bard was 3-2 in 32 innings of work with 32 strikeouts. He threw an inning of relief for the Red Sox in his return on Saturday.
Fresh off earning posteason all-star honors in the Pacific Coast League, Tim Federowicz was summoned to join the Los Angeles Dodgers this weekend as one of three September call ups for the club. Federowicz hit .294 with 34 doubles, 11 home runs and 76 RBIs for the Albuquerque Isotopes this year. Federowicz earned a call up with the Dodgers last year as well.
Adam Warren returns to the New York Yankees for the second time this season after making his big league debut with the club on June 29. Warren was sent back to AAA Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after the start where he has gone 7-8 on the year with a 3.71 ERA in 152 2/3 innings of action. Warren has a sub-3.00 ERA in his last 10 starts in the minors.
With the trio returning to the big leagues the Tar Heels now have 11 former players on major league rosters.
Other Tar Heels were also called up in their respective clubs' minor league systems in the last couple of weeks for the playoff push.
Josh Horton made the move from AA Midland to AAA Sacramento over the weekend and went 3 for 5 with a double and two RBIs in his debut on Saturday.
Jacob Stallings jumped from the short-season New York Penn League to AA as he joined the Altoona Curve in the Eastern League. Stallings joins the Curve for the final two games of the season as they close out 2012 action Monday.
Cody Penny earned a move from the New York Penn League to the A-level Midwest League near the beginning of April and has posted a 3-1 record with a 1.93 ERA in eight appearances for the Lake County Captains.

Bailouts on the Cheap?
Via Legal Blog Watch, Michele Boldrin and David K. Levine argue that the cheapest (read: free) way to revive the economy would be to abolish copyrights and allow patents only where the applicant can show that (1) his invention has social value, (2) a patent is not likely to block even more valuable innovations and (3) the innovation would not be cost effective without a patent. I'm not sure this would work for patents and copyrights already out there, as revoking an existing patent or copyright without just compensation strikes me as a pretty clear violation of the takings clause, and revoking one with just compensation would be insane. But for future patents and copyrights, why not?
Comments from anyone who isn't Justin Levine are welcome. Comments from Justin Levine are, too, of course, just as soon as he gets over his "my posts are too good to be tarnished by comments" mentality. Geese, ganders, etc.

Now, we must all fear evil men. But there is another kind of evil which we must fear most, and that is the indifference of good men.
Just curious, what are the anti's using as scare tactics to prevent this from passing. Before our Castle laws was passed here in Okla the anti's were all claiming that it would cause many more killings.
The main argument I remember was that suddenly everyone would start inviting people over to their houses and then shooting them.
Done. I wrote Samuelson about this before as well, and she's a supporter.
Yes, the world has gotten smaller, but it will always be too big to be ruled by unelected bureaucrats.

Major Electrical Problems Need Advice!
My wife and I own a 2006 Jeep Liberty Renegade. It currently has 116,000 miles on. About a year ago it started having issues where at start up it would start then stall. Then when driving at first down the road it would begin slugging the throttle would rev up and down, the check engine light came on and it worked itself out. I took it down got the code read it was a bad camshaft/crankshaft sensor. I purchased them from autozone, replaced them and it still continued. It was suggested to go with mopar parts purchased and replaced them. Seemed to work fine for a bit. But like clockwork came back. Within the past year we have replaced the battery and put fuel cleaner in.
The problem has progressed. We have taken it to a garage they had it for 2 days and charged us $300 and found nothing! Every garage I have talked to has no answer unless I leave it. I can't afford to keep taking it to garages.
Now we have the situation that when she try's to start it to warm it up the jeep keeps stalling and takes at least 3 times to start and it spits and sputters when she first drives off. Today she called and told me that while driving down the road all the lights on The dashboard come on and it acts like it wants to stall. When you put in reverse it completely stalls out. I don't know what to think anymore. I have spent hours searching online. The thoughts lead me to a ECM sensor, throttle body assembly , camshaft and crankshaft sensor and wire harness, and now a alternator. So any advice or help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you,

first off Hello to everyone. I just joined this forum. very very informative.
I'll begin with I have a 1993 Allante (pearl red). I'm a stereo guy. I've been installing stereos in my own & family vehicles for about 30+ years. I have never run into a system so insanely wired. I tried to tap into the woofers & tweeter wires from the back amp plugs. (the stock head unit sounds like crap). you can't change the head unit in the dash to an aftermarket which we all know. so I put a deck behind the passenger seat. a 4 ch amp in the trunk space. I wanted to run the drivers in the door & the 4 tweeters off my amp & leave the rear deck speakers to the main head unit for radio broadcasts. I unplugged the connectors from the trunk mounted amps & the plug from the the reciever control box located behind the side panel in the trunk. I tapped into the existing wires for all speakers except the rear. well the balance from left to right basically has no effect. sound comes from both doors when balance is all the way to either Left or Right side. I have the service manual for my exact year. I have all the wiring diagrams. so it doesn't show anywhere that the speakers are inter connected somehow. I tapped into the driverside speakers ONLY & both the driver door & the passenger door speakers play. WTF! I didn't want to have to tear the door panels off & re run my own wiring to all the speakers. the rear deck speakers balance is normal (left is left & visa versa)... all the tweeters are the same as the full range woofers, play on both sides even when you shift the balance to either side. any idea on how these are wired behind the door?
I can post the wiring diagram from the book if anyone would like to see it. again I have been doing this a long time so i've checked the diagrams & all my connections MULTIPLE times for mistakes (all is good). oh yeah the spekers also sound out of phase. tin sounding when bal is in the middle & very bassy when all the way to one side or the other on the balance.
I hope I've given enough information. I'll be working on this all day. & i'll be checking for replies all day. I hope someone can help. thank you all.

As will have been suggested by that last sentence, video outputs consist of a mini-HDMI and two dual-link DVI-I. The latter can be converted to VGA, HDMI, or DisplayPort with appropriate adapters. The mini-HDMI port can be used to pull the audio signal from your PCs sound card and pass it out to a TV or monitor with speakers giving you a neat single cable solution. However, unlike ATI, you can't do the same with the DVI ports and the latest lossless compressed audio formats (DTS-HD and Dolby TrueHD, as used on Blu-rays) aren't supported, though arguably these are very niche formats.
Also, though Nvidia makes a big deal about the GTX 400 series being able to do surround- and 3D surround-gaming with three monitors, one card can only support two monitors at once. You will in fact need two cards in SLI if you want surround gaming. ATI's HD 5000 series, on the other hand, can output to three monitors from a single card.
The only things that mark this card out as being built by Zotac are the various stickers applied to the fan shroud – the card hasn't been overclocked or tweaked in any other way from the reference Nvidia design. Like most of the other board partners, Zotac will be releasing an overclocked version shortly, though.
Looking at the raw numbers of these cards, there's little to be concluded when comparing ATI to Nvidia as the two companies use such differing architectures. However, we can at least compare cards within the two companies.
Most notable is the GTX 480 has twice the number of Stream Processors (or CUDA cores as Nvidia now calls them) as its predecessor the GTX 285. Combined with an increase in ROPs and clock speed it's fair to expect the GTX 480 to be considerably faster than the GTX 285. You may notice that the memory interface has dropped in width from 512 bits wide to just 384. This won't, however, result in a drop in performance as the GTX 480 uses much faster GDDR5 memory.
The GTX 295 and HD 5970 both use two graphics chips on a single card to bolster their performance, which explains the enormous raw numbers we see in the table above. This solution can have great benefits for performance if the card works correctly but it's much more prone to compatibility issues, and these cards can sometimes perform worse than single chip equivalents. As such we're always wary of recommending these dual-chip cards.
Nice review but all as I suspected. The 5850 is still my next planned upgrade for if the 5770 ever falls short (which has not done yet).
"Also, Nvidia supports 3D gaming on its cards, though frankly we don't see this as much of a value-add yet, especially as you need special high-speed monitors and the glasses to take advantage of it."
Can you outline which game you have played in 3D recently to reach this conclusion? You can pick up a 3d monitor and glasses for £350. Having played games in 3D for around 8 months I believe it is the biggest advance in games development since the move from 2d to 3d game engines.
I'm having difficulty understanding all the simplistic bad press, I also think most reviews are too gaming centric. That's fine from a gaming site... but TrustedReviews is not a gaming site!
That said I totally agree with those who've said if you want the best bang for your gaming buck then go with a few 5850's, there's really no competition.
So who spends 400-450 purely on a graphics card? You should review the card at least partially for it's other intended markets... CAD, Graphics, Rendering, Video, Software developers!
I'm a GUI developer. I code obviously and game... but I do some do GPU rendering and video editing too. GPU rendering's a 'feature' that's often ignored by reviews. General purpose GPU processing is Nvidia's trump card but too many reviews ignore it because you simply can not do it 'effectively' on ATI cards.
VRay, Mental Ray, Octane, and Arion all use CUDA. LUXRender and Furryball can run on ATI but they are biased renderers or worse. There's a reason the heavy weights are using CUDA... OpenCL is far behind, and will fall further behind because not enough developers use it.
I haven't done it yet but the Fermi card allow you to execute C++ natively.
I'll have fun with that!
Right now I have an EVGA GTX 480, and I'll probably buy another, possibly two.
These card are NOT loud or hot if 'properly' ventilated! If you're gona buy one you need a good case and PSU. Don't fool yourself.
The Silverstone Fortress FT02 is perfect for hot cards as the motherboard is rotated 90 degrees allowing hot air to rise... most tests show these cases perform better thermally than open test rigs while having good sound insulation. GPU rendering stresses the card far more than gaming... so I'm
pretty happy with heat, noise & power levels.
From the rendering forums I've read you get 100% scaling in GPU rendering too, so suddenly the GTX 480 is an absolute bargain (strange but true)
Why spend a 1000's on render slaves when you can buy extra GTX 480's that will destroy them in both processing power and power usage?
Yes a GTX 480 could be an environmentally friendly option (if used correctly)
I know I'm an edge case, but by reviewing GPU purely for gaming you're doing a disservice to your readers.
We'll see a lot more applications that are 'enhanced' by CUDA in the near future.
Video, 3D rendering, CAD and many scientific apps already are enhanced.
Yes Fermi cards are hot, noisy, expensive and not great value for gaming... but they are FAR more useful. So while I'd agree with your scoring from a gaming POV it's simply wrong from an overall view.
As part of your future tests could you please post the scores you get with the HQV benchmark v2.0 DVD / Bluray
So far no video card has produced full marks. Personally I am excited about the mid range offerings of the 4xx series.
I agree witht eh review, that 3d gaming is not really important at the moment, its gimmicky and not that great.
@GUIGuy, the GTX 480 might be a more sophisticated product and great for CUDA work and with products like VRay, Mental Ray, Octane,... but lets face it, +99% of these cards will end-up in home PCs for gaming, not in pro 3D rendering rigs. For gaming at the moment, it seems more reasonable to buy a card from the red team.
@GUIGuy CAD and VFX users are more likely to be using Quadro based systems due to the support options offered by workstation vendors. They also tend to use the systems as supplied rather than put together their own with ad-hoc components.
Rgeardless of NVIDIA's marketing, application acceleration via CUDA and the like is still a niche area. The vast, vast majority of users will see no benefit from it - so the gaming emphasis of this review is only sensible. Anyone seriously interested in CUDA development is likely to be a researcher with a bank of Tesla systems to play with.
Im waiting for the dual-GPU version (the GTX 495?). Any news on when that will be available??
Ive been on the green team since the 7900GTO but they are doing nothing for me with this fermi effort. Im no fanboy, I go where the performance and cost hit that magical perfect point and all I can see is ATI. Granted I see no need to replace my 260GTX anytime soon but Nvidia certainly needs to shrink those babies down without losing much performance before I would even consider one.
Glad to see ATI strongly back in the game.
I hate Nvidia for their closed stance with Physx, especially when it adds nothing of real value to the consumer. In Mirror's Edge it was accidentally turned on and made glass shattering look slightly nicer, but added nothing to gameplay. I don't think it can last for long, especially when Ati look to take back some of the GPU market from Nvidia and developers don't want to support something only 60% of their audience can use.
Ati simply have price/performance cornered at the moment. No thanks to competition to Nvidia. Prices have actually INCREASED for certain cards since Nvidia got in on the DX11 action. I bought my Ati 5770 VaporX for £132 in Feb despite some people on this forum telling me to wait. I'm glad I didn't because the price has gone up at least £10, and some are charging £160 for it.
The top end cards from AMD and Nvidia certainly are impressive, lol but what retarded person would want to waste all that money??
Just stick with a card that's a year or 2 old, you wont really notice any difference and DX11 lol nothing even out that uses it.
The main problem with the internet is they let anyone use it - there should be some kind of test before you can get a connection - much like the driving test, only based around learning how to be respectful and civil to others.....
@Mombasa69: This card is meant to be used at high resolutions, you'll most certainly see a difference at 3600x1920.

Ask Proxima C3327W-A LCD Projector Review
ASK PROXIMA C3327W-A REVIEW – SUMMARY: The Bottom Line, Pros, Cons
The Bottom Line
The Ask Proxima C3327W-A is a no-frills portable projector that produces a sharp, bright image with exceptional color fidelity for its class. Whether you need the higher output of the Normal mode, or the better black levels of the Cinema mode, you get plenty of brightness (the Cinema mode is only 15% less bright than the Normal mode). The video presentation abilities of the C3327W-A are also quite impressive for a projector in this class, with decent contrast and black levels. This ability to provide a good picture at high brightness levels will please the presenter working in a room with minimal light control.
As we noted with the Ask Proxima E1655U, there is no wireless network or network projection capability. While that wasn't a big concern with the E1655U (which is designed for a fixed installation), it's more of a detriment to a projector like the C3327W-A that's intended for portability.
If you're looking for a portable projector that's packed with features like wireless networking, network presentation, PC-free presentation or just think that every portable projector should come with a carry bag, the C3327W-A suffers in comparison with some of the other portable projectors in this price range. That being said few of them offer similar performance in brightness and color. Ask Proxima's excellent lamp warranty gives it an advantage of some of the competition as well.
If having a large number of features is not on your checklist, but high brightness and faithful color reproduction at a low price is, then the C3327W-A should be at the top of your list. Also, the C3327W-A's ability to use multiple projectors to display a larger image will please the buyer looking for a reasonably priced solution for a museum display or even digital signage. For these reasons, we believe the Ask Proxima C3327W-A is worthy of a Special Interest award.
- High brightness
- Very sharp image with any resolution
- Very good color balance, even with the brightest picture mode
- Built-in test patterns assist with setup
- Built-in edge blending allows for the use of multiple projectors to display a larger image
- If mounted, both lamp and filter can be changed without unmounting the projector
- Has different colorboard settings
- Long lamp life in Eco mode
- Excellent lamp warranty
- Has dust filter that must be maintained
- No network display capability
- Manual available digitally only
- Limited feature set for a portable projector (ie: no network presentation or PC-free presentation)
- No lens cover or cap
- No carry bag

Individual Zoning
Each indoor unit can be operated independently. That is, on/off, temperature, air movement, up/down (wall mount unit only), time clock operation, can all be controlled from their own wireless remote.
Inverter Technology
Through new, advanced technology, Inverter air conditioners are more economical to operate and quieter to run than conventional units. They can handle greater extremes in temperature, are smoother and more stable in operation, and reach the desired temperature faster than conventional air conditioners.
Inverter control
The Inverter component allows the outdoor unit to vary its speed and output to match the required capacity of the indoor unit. Thus, the Inverter model can achieve 30% more operating efficiency than conventional models and therefore, is much less expensive to run.
Convenient and Economical Multi Zone Systems are one of today's most advanced forms of air conditioning. One outdoor unit can power up to 4 indoor units simultaneously or one at a time, yet it remains highly energy efficient when operating just one indoor unit at low capacity. Fujitsu Multi Zone Systems are quick and easy to have installed and are ultra quiet as well as highly energy efficient.
The wall mounted unit features an I.A.Q. (Indoor Air Quality) Plasma Filter, which is a high performance electronic air cleaner that removes dust and odor, improving the overall air quality.
Wired Remote Controller Standard for Concealed Ceiling (UTB-UUB) and Compact Cassette (UTY-RNBYU) type models One wired remote controller can control up to 4 concealed ceiling units. They're perfect for large meeting rooms with multiple distribution points. Features of the wired remote controller include:
- Weekly timer
- Set different on-off time by day
- Set on-off time twice a day
- Set time in 5 minute intervals
- Control up to 16 indoor units
- Child lock capable
- Remote temperature sensor
- Set different temperatures throughout the day

I remember some of you were unsure about the motor build and some other things. I'm new to this caliber of car and will take your criticism good or bad into consideration. I'm not going for any world records, I want the car to be properly done and reliable at the moment.

My life with Lance Armstrong: Personal assistant tells how he 'found steroids in cyclist's bathroom cabinet and was fired within a year'
Mike Anderson was personal assistant to Lance Armstrong for two years between 2002 and 2004
Was a cycling contemporary of the legendary athlete as they grew up in Texas
Claims his relationship with Armstrong deteriorated after he discovered drugs in the cyclists bathroom in 2004 - although he never told his employer
Says that Armstrong is callous and heartless and dumped his first wife on a beach in Santa Barbara, California and watched her spiral into depression
Alleges Armstrong took kick-backs when he raced in Europe and may not have declared them to the I.R.S
Alleges that Armstrong has little time for his Livestrong foundation saying at one 2003 event: 'I hate these f***ing things.'
When Armstrong was confronted about doping by Anderson he said 'Everybody does it'
Left Anderson penniless after allegedly firing him for no reason and refusing to pay him money owed unless he signed a non-disclosure agreement
Read more:
Now running a bicycle repair shop on the other side of the world, Anderson also documents how he witnessed Armstrong allegedly take kick-backs in the form of cash during his racing days in France.
'Armstrong would often return from Europe with money stuffed into his pants,' said Anderson.
'It was clumsily concealed from authorities, but this was easy to get away with for a celebrity flying in and out of private air terminals, where control over passengers was fairly lax.
'The cash came from the post-Tour races that are an important part of the cycling culture in Europe, because they allow people in smaller French towns, or outside France altogether, to see pros racing on their local roads.
'All a rider had to do was show up, race for a while, and collect payment, which was made under the table.
'Whether he declared this as income or not, I dont know.'

Three Big Ten Teams Earn Preseason Recognition from Golfweek
Sept. 10, 2010
PARK RIDGE, Ill. - Purdue, Ohio State and Michigan State have been tabbed as top-30 teams in Golfweek's preseason women's golf rankings. The defending NCAA and Big Ten Champion Boilermakers enter the season as the No. 1 team in the country, while the Buckeyes hold No. 21 and the Spartans check in at No. 23.
Three Purdue golfers also earned preseason laurels as Maude-Aimee LeBlanc, Numa Gulyanamitta and Laura Gonzalez-Escallon enter the season ranked in the individual top 30. LeBlanc, ranked fourth in the individual top 30, finished in a tie for third at the NCAA Championships last season. Gulyanamitta opens the season ranked as a second-team selection while Gonzalez-Escallon, the defending Big Ten Champion and Freshman of the Year, checks in as a third-team choice.
Ohio State opens the season at No. 21 after taking third place at the 2010 Big Ten Championships. The Buckeyes return first-team All-Big Ten selection Rachel Rohanna, along with second-team All-Big Ten honoree In-Hong Lim.
After finishing second at the Big Ten Championships last season, Michigan State checks in at No. 23 in Golfweek's rankings. The Spartans return two top-20 finishers from the Big Ten Championships in Caroline Powers and second-team All-Big Ten selection Aimee Neff.

: Is my hair over-conditioned?
Ok- I need you advice. Obviously this is difficult if you can't actually
my hair, but I'll describe it.
I's virgin hair - never coloured, straightened, chemically processed etc. I do use an ionic hair dryer diffuser. When I was much younger it was straight, then it went bushy then curly. Since it went bushy, it's been
frizzy (every hairdresser I've been to say they've never seen anything like it
). It's sort of fluffy, and I've
managed to control it. The best I get is if I use a petrolatum-based product (some sort of hair texturising wax/gum) and wear it in a pony tail. This is what I do most days.
I tried CG routine. It didn't work. However, when I shampoo my hair is still frizzy and it looks damaged, although I don't see how it can be. I deep condition once every one or two weeks. I use a leave-in conditioner every day and I condition regularly every day. My hair is 2b/3a.
What do you think- is it over or under conditioned?

I am a grandma of 13 and live 200 miles from my family. I am currently going through a nasty divorce from a husband of 15 years. He broke off the marriage and treated me badly since. I have been a Christian for 8 years and now I am a Womens Ministry leader and a Sunday School Teacher in my church. I want to encourage the young women that they do have a place in God's wonderful kingdom. God has placed a desire to see them go from being in youth and actually learning at an adult level in the womens ministry. God has placed me in Winslow for a season to learn and teach. He said that He was not done with me yet, so I am excited to see what direction He takes me.

As family members get older, they'll likely need assistance with everyday tasks. They may be open to the idea of household tools such as at home first aids and adaptive kitchen products but adverse to accepting help from caregivers.
AARP pointed out that there are usually two reasons why older adults recognize that help around the home may be beneficial. The first scenario is one where they realize that their abilities have decreased. The second involves an incident such as a fall that forces them to face the realities of aging.
Implementing help before accidents occur
Nobody wants an accident to take place before older relatives accept assistance. So how do you breach the topic without meeting resistance or threatening your loved one's sense of independence?
Convincing him or her to fully recognize the situation can be difficult. But you're likely one of the people who know your loved one best. If you're unsure of where to begin, here are six steps that'll make the discussion easier.
- Put yourself in his or her shoes: As with any situation that requires persuasion, viewing things from the other party's perspective will give you better insight. Your family member has lived through many situations and has probably always managed on his or her own. As a child or younger relative, the older individual may not view you as someone who understands his or her situation. Recognizing this will help you prepare for the next step.
- Phrase sentences methodically: Home Instead noted the importance of wording. Though you mean well, consider your phrasing carefully. Suggestions will work better than commands. Rather than flatly state that your loved one requires help around the home, reconfigure the sentence to focus more on your needs. Let him or her know that your mind would be put at ease if he or she accepted help with housecleaning or tending the garden. This way, the issue is about you, not his or her decreased abilities.
- Make it a family effort: Regardless of whether you're planning to be the primary caregiver, you can open up the discussion to other relatives and family friends. Approach this carefully – you don't want it to come off as some kind of intervention. It should be a friendly chat where everybody feels comfortable sharing their opinions.
- Invite the right people: You'll want to invite everyone who's willing to help out with caregiving tasks, but don't forget to include your loved one's friends or mentors. He or she may be more willing to listen to a best friend's advice than yours when it comes to these issues. Of course, these individuals will need to agree with your plans. If not, have a chat with them first to ensure that everyone is on the same page.
- Offer different kinds of help: Chances are, your family member can benefit from help with different tasks. Instead of deciding which ones he or she will receive assistance with, create categories, such as cooking and gardening, and divide these into subcategories. This way, he or she can still enjoy his or her favorite steps, such as creating the meal, but not having to prepare or clean.
- Take it one step at a time: As time goes on, your family member may require more assistance. It may be tempting to provide for all of his or her needs at once, but if you face resistance, implementing one area of help at a time can allow him or her to adapt to the change and grow more accepting of it.

A Massachusetts high school counselor has been arrested on harassment charges for allegedly taking photos of the chests of high school girls when they reached for candy that he tossed on cafeteria tables, The Enterprise reports.
Galen Stone, 55, was accused of criminal harassment and accosting or annoying a person of the opposite sex, the Brockton, Mass., newspaper reports.
Prosecutors say an investigation, which began after girls complained to Brockton High School officials, turned up a trove of photos and videos on Stone's phone, many focused on women's chests and taken apparently without their knowledge.
A judge has barred Stone from unsupervised contact with children under 18. His lawyer says the order will prevent Stone from attending his daughter's high school graduation, The Enterprise reports.

Muamba slumped to the turf in an FA Cup tie against Tottenham at White Hart Lane, and underwent several minutes of CPR and defibrillation before being taken to the London Chest Hospital.
"Bolton Wanderers can confirm that Fabrice Muamba has been admitted to the heart attack centre at London Chest hospital where he is currently in a critically ill condition in intensive care," the club said in a statement.
"No further information will be issued at this stage. The club has requested the media to respect his family's privacy at this time."
Sky News had reported a hospital spokesman as saying that he is breathing and in a stable condition.
The incident took place with nobody around him in the 42nd minute of the match, which was later abandoned by referee Howard Webb.
Medical staff spent several minutes attempting to resuscitate him using CPR and a defibrillator. Muamba was eventually carried from the pitch on a stretcher as doctors continued to attend to him.
Both sets of fans applauded him off, while players from both sides appeared greatly distressed.
Bolton later confirmed that the 23-year-old was taken to hospital. Manager Owen Coyle and club captain Kevin Davies are also understood to be there in support of the player.
Webb initially suspended the match pending further news on Muamba's condition, before it was confirmed that the game was abandoned.
Fans in the crowd looked visibly distraught as Muamba was being attended to. Some chanted his name, but in general White Hart Lane fell into a sombre silence.
Muamba was born in the Congolese capital of Kinshasa, but came to Britain at an early age with his family. He graduated through the youth ranks at Arsenal, and was a regular for England at Under-21 level.
Since joining Bolton from Birmingham City in 2008, Muamba has made 148 appearances for the Trotters.
