Video: Jordany Valdespin TripleNovember 9, 2010
Following up on a blog post I read earlier today on Metsblog about how well Mets minor leaguer Jordany Valdespin is doing in the Arizona Fall League. Watch the video below (from the 09 season) as Valdespin hits a triple. I'm really impressed by his speed and how quickly he got from home to third.

This issue seems to be the only problem with building libc on NetBSD.
Iain Hibbert added a comment - 22/Apr/10 10:17 AM
I think this may have been fixed by the following commit
which changed the default type of wide strings to be int rather than unsigned.
Altamiranus added a comment - 24/Sep/10 06:58 PM
I verified that the bug does not repro in NetBSD 5.0.x i386.
Anders Magnusson added a comment - 25/Sep/10 10:28 AM
Bug seems to be fixed now as reported after testing by Alt.

Kingdom Hearts HD Box Art Revealed
Last night, Square-Enix revealed the new official Box Art for Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD ReMIX, featuring some beautiful new artwork created by series director, Tetsuya Nomura.
The artwork features Sora sitting on a throne, similar to the previously reused artwork from Kingdom Hearts. Kairi, Goofy, and Donald are all standing on either side of him. In the center, directly above them, is the KH HD logo, surrounded by white space that slowly checkers off in both directions. To the top-left, we see Roxas, Axel, and Xion against the Twilight Town sky, and to the top-right, we see Riku, Namine, and King Mickey against the darker Castle Oblivion sky.
It is truly an awesome addition to the artwork of the Kingdom Hearts series! You can check it out below.

Travis Barker and Carmen Electra Have a Dinner Date… But It's Not What You Think
Are Carmen Electra and Travis Barker making sweet music together?
Well, kind of, but not in the rock romance way that you're probably thinking.
The twosome were spotted at the Blink 182 drummer's restaurant Crossroads in West Hollywood Tuesday night, leaving inquiring minds to wonder what's really going on… besides the sexy singer's far too revealing dress that left little to the imagination. (But we're sure Barker wasn't complaining.)
So CB! got to the bottom of the random celeb spotting.
"They're not dating," a source told Celebuzz.
But it's not like Shanna Moakler's ex hasn't tried many times before.
"He's been talking to her for over a year and asking her to come out, but she's keeps avoiding him."
Only this time it's business, not pleasure.
"He invited her to his restaurant to talk about music because he wants to collaborate. And she finally said yes," added the source.
Can you imagine a pop punk dance album between these two?… only time will tell.

For the University Community
Community Letter
September 4, 2015
Dear University of Northern Colorado community member:
More and more Americans turn to the nation's food banks, soup kitchens and shelters for meals. Government reports also show that the number of Americans needing food assistance is increasing; the number of Weld County residents requiring help has grown, too.
University of Northern Colorado students from the School of Communication created a plan for a campus-wide food drive/competition to benefit Weld Food Bank in spring 2006. Over the past seven years, a total of over 145,000 pounds of food/cash equivalent have been collected. We encourage participants to also donate cash, not just cans. The Student Nutrition & Dietetics Association assumed sponsorship of the event in 2011.
The registration deadline for the 10th annual Cans to Candelaria food drive is October 1, 2015, and we encourage you to challenge another similar group!
If your club, organization, residence hall, department, school, college, or any other group on campus has done a food drive in the past, please consider doing your drive during the "Cans to Candelaria" competition. The Weld Food Bank presents a trophy to be presented to the winning UNC group or organization at the conclusion of the drive on Thursday, October 15.
For more information about deadlines or how you and your UNC colleagues/ peers/ teammates/ club members/etc. can participate, please see our Web Site. Consider a challenge! If you have any questions, contact associate professor Alena Clark at (970) 351-2879 or e-mail her at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 7/1/2014 (1291 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Brandon's planning commission meetings will now start half an hour earlier in an effort to alleviate staffing conflicts.
Second and third readings to amend the city's planning commission bylaw were read and passed during Monday's regular city council meeting.
This will alter the start time of regular meetings from the usual 7:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. based on a recommendation by the city's planning and building safety department.
Currently, the planning commission convenes on the first and third Wednesday of each month. The proposed change is also an attempt to keep public hearings from extending too late into the evening.
The change in start time only concerns the city's planning commission and not the start time of regular city council meetings.

It's that time of year again: Another JLC Live Residential Construction Show takes place in Providence, Rhode Island March 19 through March 22 at the Rhode Island Convention Center.
New on the program this year is a hands-on workshop from Simpson Strong-Tie experts Donald Simon and Charlie Roesset about wall bracing in the International Residential Code, one of the most vexing and perplexing issues in the code for builders trying to get up to speed with changing code versions. For details, see the JLC Live session description: "Brace Yourself... It's the Big One: Code Compliant Wall Bracing and Load Path Solutions."
A little background: Requirements for framing depend on the official design wind speed in the location where you're building—which is typically higher if you're nearer to the ocean. If the wind speed is 120 mph, your problem is simple: You need an engineer to design the building. If the wind speed is only 110 mph, you don't—you can design from the prescriptive tables in the building code. For more on the prescriptive method, check out "Bracing Walls for Wind" by Ted Cushman (JLC July 2013).
Where's the line between 120 mph and 110 mph? Well, in Rhode Island, for example, the line is US Route 1. Build on one side of the highway, and you need an engineer. Build across the road, and you don't—you can look up the answers yourself in the code book.
But that assumes that you understand the code book. And even if you do, the code book offers more than a half-dozen different ways to accomplish the same thing, each with its own set of costs and jobsite practical considerations.
Simpson Strong-Tie's Simon and Roesset say they're offering a class that lets builders try out a few of those options in the classroom, not just to learn how it's done, but for a chance to compare the pros and cons of some different approaches. Don Simon told JLC, "The audience will participate by actually installing 3 different methods of resisting lateral and uplift loads, and frame two different narrow garage wall portals, one with a site-built prescriptive solution and one with a prefabricated solution." An added bonus for contractors from Massachusetts: the state recognizes the class for three credit hours that meet the continuing education requirement for licensed contractors.

First and foremost, is anyone else as annoyed as me that nobody, live bloggers or the actual site, has posted where Blogher 2007 is going to be located? They gave a hint a week or so ago what it was going to be east of the Mississippi River, and I've heard rumors about Chicago, but no actual announcement. And I'm dying of curiosity.
It has rained for oh, 15 days in a row and it's finally sunny and I get that horrible sinus headache from hell. It seems totally unfair that the weather has finally cleared up and it's gorgeous out and I've got such a migraine that light hurts my eyes and my face aches from the sinus pressure. I mean, is that just wrong?
What do you absolutely hate?

LOS ANGELES - Jerry Sloan approached his shortage of shooting guards Tuesday as an opportunity, not a handicap. So with Raja Bell injured and Kirk Snyder suspended, Sloan tried a two-point-guard starting lineup for the first time this season.
The pairing of Keith McLeod and Randy Livingston in the backcourt, with regular two-guard Gordan Giricek coming off the bench, was Sloan's 30th set of starters this season. Even the coach was intrigued about its success.
"We used to play two point guards at a time, but we haven't done that very much this year. So I thought I'd take this opportunity to see how it goes," Sloan said.
Livingston was up for the challenge, though he admitted it would be an adjustment. "I've always been a point guard who likes to control things, don't depend on anyone," he said. "When you're the two, you have to depend on guys to get you open, to deliver the ball on time. I'm looking forward to trying it. It's going to be fun."
Snyder, suspended for one game by the NBA for being involved in a fight with Dallas forward Jerry Stackhouse after Saturday's loss to the Mavericks, stayed in Salt Lake and is expected to play tonight. Bell, sidelined by a bruised shin, has not played in two weeks.
The Jazz also lost another player during the game, though the injury is not believed to be serious. Center Curtis Borchardt, who scored two points in a four-minute stint in the second quarter, left the game with tendinitis in his right knee.
Eulogizing a friend
Jazz assistant coach Phil Johnson will be a eulogist next Monday at the funeral of Bill Jones, who was the Kings' trainer during both of Johnson's stints as coach. Jones, whose career with the Kings spanned more than 25 seasons in Kansas City and Sacramento, died Monday night of cancer.
"You become family with your staff over the course of a season," said Johnson, who worked eight seasons with Jones. "He was the best."

RAISING THE MINIMUM WAGE -- (House of Representatives - September 27, 2006)
(Mr. PASCRELL asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. PASCRELL. Mr. Speaker, when is House Republican leadership going to allow a vote on the minimum wage bill to come to this floor? A clean minimum wage bill? As health care, grocery, and energy costs skyrocket for average consumers, House Republican leadership would rather help their CEO friends than average Americans who are just trying to make ends meet.
The fact is that the median annual household income has actually increased by $1,700 after inflation during the course of the Bush administration. The fact is that today, full-time workers who earn the minimum wage are bringing home a paltry $10,700.
This is simply not fair. House Republican leadership have refused to allow a clean minimum wage vote. Close to 15 million Americans will be affected if we did this. Do Republicans really expect a family to live on less than $11,000 a year?
Contrary to what the President and Republican leadership would have you believe, everything is not coming up roses when it comes it our national economy. There are more poor, more uninsured than ever before.
Mr. Speaker, no congressional pay raise until minimum wage is increased, period. It is time we pass a minimum wage bill so that 6 million Americans get a much-deserved pay raise.
Mr. Speaker, if I may, I ask unanimous consent to bring up H.R. 2429, and I know what you are going to say, but I ask it anyway.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under the guidelines consistently issued by successive Speakers, as recorded on page 734 of the House Rules Manual, the Chair is constrained not to entertain the gentleman's request until it has been cleared by the bipartisan floor and committee leaderships.

Q. When should my baby get his first tooth and start teething?

A. The timing of when your baby's first tooth comes in can vary quite a bit.

Signs of the First Tooth

Is your baby a little fussy, drooling, wanting to chew on things?

Must be teething, right?

Well, not necessarily...

While those can be signs and symptoms of teething, they can very often occur without teething at around age 3 to 4 months.

According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, "By age 3 or 4 months, infants are drooling and chewing on the things they put into their mouths. This is how they learn about the world around them."

First-time parents might also be fooled if they see tiny white to whitish yellow dots on their baby's gums. Often mistaken for the first tooth, these are often instead gingival cysts. They can occur on the roof of an infant's mouth, when they are called Epstein's Pearls, and on the gums when they are called Bohn's nodules. And they go away without treatment.

Baby's First Tooth

Although the average age for getting their first baby tooth is 6 months, some infants don't get their first tooth until they are 14 or 15 months old. Others can begin teething and get an early baby tooth at 3 months.

In fact, some babies can even be born with a tooth - natal tooth, although these teeth often have to be removed.

Do a lot of other family members get their teeth late? Then you might expect your baby to get his teeth late too, as the timing for getting the first tooth does appear to be genetic or run in families.

Which baby tooth can you expect to come in first?

The lower, middle two teeth (central incisors) usually come in first, followed by the upper, middle two teeth.

Keep in mind that many babies don't follow this typical order or pattern and their teeth may come in randomly.

And while you should be wiping your baby's gums even before he gets his first tooth, you can start to brush his teeth with a smear of fluoride toothpaste as he gets them. Also remember that the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends the first visit to a pediatric dentist within 6 months of getting the first tooth or by the time your baby is 12 months old.

When Do Babies Get Teeth

Which baby teeth are next?

After the lower and upper middle two teeth, the lateral incisors, canine teeth, first, and then second molars all follow.

Ultimately, your baby will get all 20 baby teeth (the primary teeth) by the time they are about two to three years old.

You can then expect your child to start to lose his first baby tooth when he is about 6 years old. He will quickly start to get the first of his 32 permanent teeth at about the same time.

Beer glassware is a subject that can run and run. Does it or does it not make a difference to the taste of beer?
Whatever the answer, here are some illustrations of the options!
It's often claimed that the choice of glassware has a big effect on the flavour of your beer.
I have no reason to dispute that.
However, as was pointed out when I recently hosted The Session, there's more to beer than brewing and drinking.
There's a whole range of things that affect enjoyment of beer: place, time, mood, company etc. Flavour is just one.
For this reason I don't tend to choose glasses based on the benefits or otherwise of a particular model.
But from a design and beer culture point of view, I thoroughly enjoy the huge variety of vessels out there.
Each glass (allegedly) affects the way you appreciate the smell, taste and appearance of the beer.
One of the main differences between beer glasses is whether they have an open or closed rim. Classic pint glasses, for example, are open whereas Belgian tulip glasses are closed.
The idea with the closed glass is to catch aromas and gases above the beer to enhance the smell.
Because taste is in part governed by our noses, the extra aromas in the closed glasses are said to enhance the flavour of the beer.
The look of a beer also influences how much you enjoy it, I think.
Thinner glasses show off clarity. Many are thin at the base, to highlight colour and transparency, and widen at the top to encourage the build up of a large head.
Dimpled Glass Tankard
Relatively traditional in Britain, the dimpled glass pint is popular for drinking ales.
The thick, patterned glass creates many attractive colours and reflections, and the handle supposedly stops the beer from warming too quickly.
Many Belgian breweries have their own beer glass, such as this one from Orval.
They're often used for big beers that you sip slowly.
A German glass tankard that's usually 1 litre in volume.
They're popular at Oktoberfest, not to mention in Bavarian beer halls around the world.
Pint Glass: Conical
There are many varieties of the humble, utilitarian pint glass. The most basic is this simple tapering one.
Pint Glass: Nonic
The nonic is so named because the bulge towards the top stops the glasses from chipping around the rim when they're washed.
Pint Glass: Tulip
Another variant on the classic pint, this one always reminds me of Guinness.
Typically used for tasting brandy, where the comfy rounded bottom lets you warm the drink inside with your hand. Similarly, the thin glass and large surface area warm the liquid fairly quickly.
High alcohol, aromatic beers are usually drunk from these glasses, which collect the beer's aroma inside.
Summer Glass
Good for tasting Pilsners and other lagers where foam and clarity are on display.
Tasting Glass
Similar to a snifter, but even better at encouraging carbonation.
Good for strong smelling, gassy beers such as IPA and Saison.
Tulip Glass
Another variant of the same theme: glasses designed to collect aromas.
You may recognise this one as a Duvel glass.
Weizen Glass
Originating in Germany where it's used to serve wheat beer, the Weizen glass is narrow at the bottom and wider at the top.
The shape encourages aromas to form, but more importantly leaves room for the foam that forms in these heavily carbonated beers.
Yard Of Ale
Beloved of students and hardened drinkers, the yard of ale contains about 2.5 pints.
The awkwardly shaped bottom means there's no chance of savouring your beer. One long swig is the only choice.
Does The Beer Taste Any Better?
I enjoy using a glass rather than drinking from a can or bottle. I think that does make a difference.
A snifter-type glass certainly traps aromas and thus enhances flavours. For tasting, in the sense of really concentrating on flavours, this is probably the best bet.
But for regular drinking I think the differences are largely aesthetic or cultural. Even the choice of whether to use a glass at all.
What about you? Do you think the glassware makes any difference?
Thanks to Bryan at This Is Why I'm Drunk for the information on the tasting, snifter and summer glasses, and for inspiring this post in the first place.

Google TV 2.0 Coming to Logitech Revue This Summerby Jason Inofuentes on 6/22/2011 3:26 PM EST

jefmes - Thursday, June 23, 2011 - linkI've been an Android early adopter from the start *cough*sucker*/cough* but the upgrade to the Logitech Revue has been the thing I'm MOST anticipating. We use the Google TV box regularly right now, but it's just too slow, clunky, and version 1.0-ish. If they can pull this off without me having to buy a new Google TV box, Logitech will have taken themselves off the naughty list.
Now if I could just get a working SD slot and my LTE upgrade in my Xoom.... :) Reply

Sherlock - Thursday, June 23, 2011 - linkWill TV's be the de-facto device for casual browsing?
The biggest draw for me seems to be their always on/instant on capability....and the comfort factor that most people have with ther TV's.
TV's come across as non-threatning & accessible as compared to the complexity perceived to be inherent with computers.
Most causal users fall in the category of surfing/multimedia/light gaming
There's no need for them to turn on a PC/Laptop/Tablet....if the TV can provide this basic functionality
The holy-grail of convergence seems to be achievable.....one device to rule them all Reply
L. - Thursday, June 23, 2011 - linkComfort factor ?
My PC screen is a 40" LCD TV (led) ... I don't think it will ever be as comfortable as a tablet (which I don't own) or a PC, and I doubt there's anything complex in an iProduct ;)
Considering the chip mentionned above, I believe you can forget about that light gaming if it meant flash games ;) - but yes we will soon have h264 + flash + stuff under 1 watt and it will go in every television (no tvbox) instead of the current stuff they put in. Reply
JasonInofuentes - Thursday, June 23, 2011 - linkThis kind of convergence is risky if the cost isn't almost nil. I think Gruber or Gartenberg covered this recently, the TV is not a good convergence device because you don't replace your TV as often as almost anything else in the house. Indeed, but for the HD switchover, I don't know anyone that has replaced a TV that was working just fine.
I think STB's are here to stay. But if TV's do become the convergence device, the chipsets will have to be potent enough to withstand at least two years of strong updates. Reply

BASINGSTOKE RFC director of rugby James Croker says his side can crank up the pressure on promotion rivals Chichester by taking maximum points from three upcoming away games.
'Stoke face a tricky set of fixtures in February, with Saturday's trip to Hove followed by away games at Dover and Haywards Heath.
All three matches involve journeys of at least an hour-and-a-half – but if Basingstoke can secure bonus point victories in each one, they are sure to remain no more than one point behind second-placed Chichester.
The Sussex side face a tough trip to Sidcup in two week's time, while their season could be made or broken in March, when they travel to fourth-placed Wimbledon and host runaway leaders East Grinstead.
Croker said: "If we can come through February with maximum points then we can start to look forward because there will be all to play for. Sidcup don't score that many points but they do not concede that many either, so Chichester will have to work hard for the bonus point that day, while they have some crucial fixtures in March.
"February is tough in that we have three away games, with three reasonably long journeys – but they are games that we should be winning.
"It will be tough down at Hove but if we can go there and get maximum points it will set us up well for the next two games."
Basingstoke go into Saturday's game on the back of four straight wins and having won 12 of their last 13. Hove are seventh in the London One South table but they boast a talented set of backs and are more than capable of causing an upset, as they showed by beating Chichester in December.
"Hove have got some good backs – but they cannot do anything if they don't have the ball. We need to make sure we win set-pieces, stay competitive at the breakdown and look to build from there.
"Hove are like us. They like to play a nice brand of rugby and they do rack up the points. Hopefully it will not be too entertaining but it is two sides who like to play nice stuff."
Croker will be without four first-team regulars for the game, including his entire first-choice second row of Andy Hore and Jake Henderson. Will Ford, who has been playing No 8, looks set to step into the breach, with Ryan Davis taking his place in the back row.
Winger Karl Buttle will also sit the game out but Ash Paterson should return at full-back after missing last week's win over Havant with a dead leg, allowing Gavin Dampies to move back to the wing. Fly-half Adam Davies is also unavailable, so Jack Parsons is likely to retain the number 10 shirt.

(The Hosting News) – Web host Go Daddy broke ground on its latest location in Temple, Arizona Tuesday in an event that drew attendance from state Governor Jan Brewer.
The 150 thousand square foot facility is expected to employ 1,300 people – something that could provide a significant boost to Arizona's job market. Up to 300 new jobs could be created.
"GoDaddy is changing people's lives by helping people turn their dreams and ideas into real businesses – and this new facility is a key piece to making that happen. This location in the heart of the ASU Research Park is a sweet spot; it's in the hub of the state's technology corridor and gives us the space we need for the years ahead," stated company CEO Blake Irving in a press release.
Meanwhile, Governor Brewer referred to the web host as a "true success story."
The move is a natural fit. Go Daddy is based in Scottsdale, Arizona – just around 15 minutes away from the site that will provide for customer care, developers and engineers.
Go Daddy is commonly considered the world's largest domain registrar, accounting for over 50 million web addresses.

On the evening of Dec. 14, hours after the tragic killings of innocents in Connecticut, Mercy Children's Hospital Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist Duru Sakhrani participated in an expert panel on KSDK on how to communicate with children during times of tragedy. How should we discuss situations like the death of a loved one, a pending divorce, or the loss of a home? Here are some of her tips.
Have as many facts ready as possible when you talk with your child. Children tend to fill in missing details with their imagination, so be factual and complete. Be prepared to answer questions raised by your child, but be careful to not offer unnecessary or unwanted information. Use simple terms. Be consistent and avoid conflicting messages.
Choose the right moment and place. Ideally, you should try to share bad news toward the end of the day. Your child will have a shorter time to dwell on the bad news before bedtime. Talk in a comforting place and when you have adequate time.
Talk to your child about what this means to her personally. Talk about how her life may change. Understand that your child reasons in an immature way. Don't interpret your child's behavior or thoughts as selfish, but try to understand what this situation means to her.
Allow time for his grief and feel free to share your own grief. Grief may be a new emotion for your child. This may be the first significant loss or time of turbulence in his life. Don't rush your child or minimize his emotions. Reassure him that it's OK to be angry or sad. Help him address his emotions. Seek professional help, if necessary.
Use distraction. This is never a bad idea when dealing with children. Keep your child busy, but not so busy that he doesn't have time to discuss or grieve over the loss.
Children of varying ages will react differently and need different approaches. Those younger than 5 may not understand what you are saying. They aren't insensitive or uncaring; they just may not be old enough to understand. Don't be surprised if children between the ages of 6 and 9 blame you for the loss. It's hard for them to understand that bad things just happen. Books about this experience may help them realize they're not alone.
Young adolescents are emotionally adaptable but it may be especially hard for them to accept loss. Their reactions may be accentuated. Often, children this age won't talk with their parents, but will talk with another adult. Reach out to their other adult contacts so they know the situation. Older teens may ask for more details and don't be shocked when they reach out to the Internet for information. Remember that older teens still don't have full life experience. They may begin or increase risky behaviors.
I hope we never need to address a situation as tragic as the Sandy Hook shootings. But I hope these tips will provide some assistance when you have to talk with your children about more common issues in your daily life.

Evidence Based Acupuncture Practice
The college subscribes to the principles of evidence-based practice, and has developed AOM Practice Guidelines to inform clinical practice. Evidence-Based Practice recognizes that medical knowledge is open book knowledge, and that what is critical is the ability to know what one needs to know (Gap analysis), and how to identify and locate the appropriate sources of information (information literacy). With the evidence from the appropriate information sources, interns have the necessary evidence for making an informed AOM diagnosis, establishing the treatment principle, and developing an appropriate AOM treatment plan, which constitutes AOM professional judgment.
The college has identified the following texts, per treatment style, as the authoritative resources that should be consulted as evidence to confirm treatment plans. Clinic interns should have copies of these texts, and extra copies are available as reference texts in the clinic library.

is the combination of masculine and feminine characteristics within a person. The idea of androgyny is an ancient one rooted in classical mythology and literature. Since the early 1970s it has been widely adopted as a new sex-role alternative to the dichotomous psychological characteristics and roles traditionally prescribed for the sexes. In its most generic sense, androgyny signifies an absence of any sex-based differentiation, including unisex dress styles,
, and hermaphroditism. Social scientists generally restrict usage of "psychological androgyny" to describe an individual who manifests in personality or behavior a combination of characteristics labeled as masculine and feminine in our society.
The concept of psychological androgyny is based in previous ideas about the nature of psychological differences between the sexes but reflects tolerance of a much broader range of sex-role options for men and women. Traditional notions of sex differentiation held that the sexes were or ideally ought to be as different psychologically as they were physically. The core of those characteristics stereotypically associated with women (
) is sensitivity, emotionality, selflessness, and interrelationships with others (expressive/communal). Characteristics associated with men (masculinity) center around goal orientation, assertiveness, self-development, and separation from others (instrumental/agentic). The association of these instrumental/agentic characteristics exclusively with men and expressive/communal characteristics with women was considered typical, expected, and psychologically healthy. Individual deviation either through failure to exhibit attributes typical of one's sex or through endorsement of some characteristics atypical of one's sex implied psychological maladjustment of some sort.
This traditional model did not account for the presence of similarities across the sexes or differences within the sexes in feminine and masculine characteristics. Also with the resurgence of the feminist movement, the sex-role values embodied within this model increasingly appeared to be overly restrictive and outdated. The concept of psychological androgyny provided a way to frame sex-role alternatives in terms of masculinity and femininity without the prescriptive, sex-specific values of more traditional views.
Proponents of psychological androgyny generally assume that masculinity and femininity are independent but not mutually exclusive groups of characteristics existing in everyone to varying degrees. Individuals can be meaningfully described by the extent to which they endorse each group as self-descriptive. Both masculinity and femininity have a unique and positive but not sex-specific impact upon a person's psychological functioning (e.g., both sexes benefit from being feminine). Thus, possession of high levels of both sets of characteristics, or androgyny, should represent the most desirable, even ideal, sex-role alternative.
Descriptions of psychological androgyny differ considerably according to what types of psychological characteristics are emphasized. All of the descriptions portray a blending or an ultimate transcendence of sex-linked dichotomies of personality characteristics and behavior. Androgynous persons have been frequently defined as those who possess both masculine and feminine personality traits. Other descriptions have emphasized possession of socially appropriate, observable behaviors or thought processes that do not rely upon sex-related cues or meanings. The manner in which masculinity and femininity might work together to produce androgyny has also been variously explained. Androgyny may mean the balancing or moderating of masculinity and femininity by each other, a beneficial summation of the positive qualities of femininity and masculinity, the emergence of new qualities, of elimination of sex-stereotypic standards in an individual's perceptions and decisions, thus making masculine/feminine distinctions irrelevant.
An especially influential early description of androgynous persons proposed by Sandra Bem portrays them as flexible and adaptable, with an ability and willingness to engage in either masculine or feminine behavior as the situation warrants. In contrast, predominantly feminine or masculine (sex-typed) individuals presumably use sex-based standards to guide their behaviors, resulting in a seriously limited repertoire of options.
Research on psychological androgyny indicates that researchers have somewhat succeeded in capturing the expressive/communal and instrumental/agentic nature of femininity and masculinity through their newly developed femininity and masculinity measures. However, individuals' masculinity and femininity self-descriptions often do not strongly relate to other aspects of sex roles (e.g., attitudes or behaviors). Masculinity has proven to be much more closely related to individuals' self-esteem and psychological adjustment than is femininity. Masculinity's greater strength in this area probably stems from the more positive valuing of masculine characteristics in American society.
Numerous studies have attempted to demonstrate that androgynous individuals enjoy mental health benefits not shared with those who are sex-typed or those who see neither set of characteristics as particularly self-descriptive. Androgynous persons do tend to score as the best adjusted on a variety of measures, although the data are not conclusive. Contrary to researchers' early expectations, individuals who are high in masculinity (and low in femininity) often appear to be as well off as androgynous persons. However, individuals low in both masculinity and femininity are clearly disadvantaged. Evidence for sex differences in the androgyny literature suggests that the process, likelihood, and implications of becoming androgynous may be different for men and women. Finally, sex-role related characteristics are probably very complex and affected by a variety of factors. For example, an individual who is androgynous in self-description could appear to be quite traditional in attitudes, behavioral preferences, actual behaviors, and so on, depending on the person and the situation. Today, because of the nature of the research results and new refinements in sex-role theory, researchers are less likely to consider androgyny to represent a particular type of person who can be expected to behave in a consistent, predictable manner across a variety of situations.
Despite ambiguities suggested by research, mental health practitioners have found androgyny to be useful in naming new personality and behavioral alternatives for individuals coping with widespread social changes in how the sexes view themselves and each other. As a value and goal in counseling and psychotherapy, androgyny represents the desirability of moving away from prescriptions based on biological sex alone toward enhancing of individual adaptability and choice.

Burn ban off, but county officials still need help
Those conducting controlled burns asked to call sheriff's dispatchers in advance
From Staff Reports
March 11, 2008 - County officials lifted the ban on outdoor fires Monday but are urging those people who conduct controlled outdoor burns to let authorities know in advance so there won't be mistaken reports of grass fires by neighboring residents or passing motorists..
"We do ask that those who do burn call in and get a call number," Hopkins County Judge Cletis Millsap said Monday.
Those conducting controlled burns should call Hopkins County Sheriff's Office dispatchersat 903-438-4040. Sheriff's dispatchers field fire calls and assign call numbers for county incidents.
Calling dispatchers in advances helps authorities by letting them know that the burns are being monitored, as well as who to contact should they get reports from motorists or neighbors of an out-of-control or unattended fire on the property.
If county officials don't have a number to contact the property owner and are not aware of the burn, firefighters will be dispatched to the location.That could unnecessarily tie up firefighters and other emergency personnel and prevent their response during critical situations should an emergency occur elsewhere.
Millsap said that while Hopkins County is currently in the low fire risk and drought categories, county residents are urged to take every precaution when burning outdoors. Warmer temperatures and remaining dead vegetation could result in quicker spread of fires.
County officials will continue to monitor the number of fire calls answered by Hopkins County Fire Department and the county's volunteer firefighters. They will also be keeping a close watch on the weather conditions and Texas Forest Service drought ratings for Hopkins County.
Should conditions decline, Millsap can, at his discretion, issue an emergency burn ban.

ELK GROVE VILLAGE, IL -- It has been an incredibly good year for the Namco Prize Division and the 2013 IAAPA Attractions Expo in Orlando was the icing on the cake. Pac-Man received a makeover with a new computer animated television series, Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures, that will broadcast in 40 countries worldwide. IAAPA was the perfect show for NAMCO to launch their new line of plush from that television series.
"Pac-Man was already hugely popular but this TV show will introduce the character to a whole new generation," says Jim Wulfers, Sales Manager of Merchandise for Namco America Inc. "The first two shipments of the plush characters are sold out already and we are expecting more containers to arrive shortly with others ordered for shipping before Chinese New Year. The response to these products was simply incredible," he adds.
The Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures TV show has been a hit in the U.S. with a second season already commissioned by the Disney Channel. The show will reach the UK in January 2014 and has already rolled out in some parts of Europe. There is also a global Burger King Promotion taking place next year involving the brand, as well as a huge PR and TV Advertising campaign in all relevant regions.
The Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures toy line from Bandai is currently available in all toy retail stores in the US and a UK toy launch is scheduled for February. This will be followed by a consumer game release for all major game platforms including PS3, Xbox, and the Wii game consoles.
"Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures will be massive next year and so we have very high expectations for the demand for the plush," says James Anderson, General Manager for Namco Prize Division Europe. "It would be advisable for customers to get their orders in before demand reaches a peak early next year."
Despite the excitement surrounding the new TV show, Namco Prize Division is still enjoying strong sales of its range of classic Pac-Man plush and related prizes.
"We are ordering more units of the plush in all sizes and also we are expanding the brand to include desirable watches, plush Bluetooth speakers, footballs (soccer balls in the U.S.), and many more items," adds Anderson.
The company has also invested heavily in its range of NAM-GEAR quality electronic goods. Visitors to the booth at IAAPA saw a preview of the new range for 2014, including new tablets, Bluetooth headphones, wireless speakers and many more highly desirable items.
"It was clear from the response of visitors that we are still pushing the envelope when it comes to providing original electronics for the amusements market. Nothing else available can touch the range we have for 2014 and we will have many new items to reveal at EAG, which will confirm our position as market leader," says Anderson.

Series-connected thin film piezoelectric elements can generate large output voltages. The output voltage ideally is proportional to the number of connections. However, parasitic capacitances formed by the insulation layers and derived from peripheral circuitry degrade the output voltage. Conventional circuit models are not suitable for predicting the influence of the parasitic capacitance. Therefore we proposed the simplest model of piezoelectric elements to perform simulation program with integrated circuit emphasis (SPICE) circuit simulations). The effects of the parasitic capacitances on the thin-film Pb(Zr, Ti)O3, (PZT) elements connected in series on a SiO2 insulator are demonstrated. The results reveal the negative effect on the output voltage caused by the parasitic capacitances of the insulation layers. The design guidelines for the devices using series-connected piezoelectric elements are explained.
For several decades, there has been increasing interest in the healthcare industry for human healthcare monitoring systems. This has led to an increase in research on this topic. The medical and welfare costs to governments worldwide have now reached critical levels. Various human-activity monitoring systems have been developed and are commercially available. To realize such monitoring systems, miniaturization and integration of sensors are essential. A small, robust, integrated, wireless, and low-power-consumption sensor system would have a significant impact on patient monitoring in the human-healthcare and wellness industries. Various healthcare monitoring systems using micro-electro-mechanical-systems (MEMS) sensors have been reported [
Previously, we have reported fine-resolution processing techniques for piezoelectric Pb[Zr,Ti]O3 (PZT) thin films [
Output-voltage multiplication has significant potential in the development of energy harvesters with high output voltages, which are greater than the built-in voltage of the p-n junction, and sensors with high signal-to-noise ratios. Ideally, the output voltage would increase to infinity with the increasing number of elements. However, the parasitic components in the measurement system prevent this from happening. In the design of devices that employ output-voltage multiplication, estimation of the optimum number of series connections and the effect of parasitic capacitances are important. However, the system becomes very complicated when the number of connections increases, and therefore the estimation of the parasitic capacitance becomes complicated. This study proposes a simple procedure using simulation program with integrated circuit emphasis (SPICE) to estimate the effect of parasitic capacitances and specifies a design guideline for series-connected piezoelectric elements.
For the thin-film piezoelectric elements, the mechanical behavior, including the stress in the piezoelectric film, is determined by the substrate deformation. This is because the film has negligible thickness compared to that of the substrate structure. For piezoelectric bulk transducers, some equivalent circuits have been proposed. Mason's models, which are derived from the constituent equation of piezoelectric materials, are generally used as equivalent circuits for piezoelectric transducers [
In this paper, we investigate the influence of parasitic capacitances on the output voltage generated from series-connected piezoelectric elements. To understand the charges obtained from the output pads of the device with taking account of the influence of the parasitic capacitance, a model with a charge source, a capacitance of the piezoelectric elements, and parasitic capacitances is sufficient. The model is based on assuming ideal piezoelectric elements without leakage, and does not take dynamic phenomena into account.
The charge source is not included in the standard SPICE library. Therefore, a charge source with piezoelectric capacitance should be produced from basic SPICE elements. The models in
A charge source model is shown in
The simplest basic model proposed in this paper is a capacitor with initial voltages.
The influence of parasitic capacitances on the output signal can also be estimated analytically without using SPICE. The piezoelectric film is segmented into
The use of the circuit simulation tool, SPICE, for the estimation is much easier than the analytical procedure. SPICE transient analysis of the circuit model of capacitors with initial voltages can demonstrate the charge distribution after reaching an equilibrium state. Although the charge source is not prepared in SPICE, the previously mentioned model of the capacitor with an initial voltage makes it possible to use SPICE to easily estimate the influence of the parasitic capacitances. The transient analysis in the SPICE software has the option of providing initial voltages to capacitors. The equilibrium solution of the transient analysis provides nodal potentials after charge distribution. The influence of the parasitic capacitance is evaluated as the multiplication factor.
To evaluate the influence of the parasitic capacitances, the output voltage from series-connected piezoelectric elements is calculated using SPICE. The capacitance of the piezoelectric thin film is given by
First, we evaluated influential factors that affect the piezoelectric thin film segmented into equal areas,
As an example, series-connected PZT elements (with a relative dielectric constant of 1,000 and an area of 1 mm2) placed on a SiO2 insulation layer (with a relative dielectric constant of 4 and a thickness of 1 μm) are evaluated for various numbers of segments. The initial area does not affect the relationship between the number of connections and the multiplication factor because the solution of
For actual systems, other parasitic capacitances are also present. For example, the insulation layer under bonding pads forms a parasitic capacitance, and measurement instruments also have parasitic elements.
For MEMS devices, cantilever-type sensors are commonly used (e.g., accelerometers have proof mass with a supporting cantilever). We evaluated the influence of the parasitic capacitance for series-connected piezoelectric elements on a cantilever. When a horizontal cantilever with length
Therefore, the output voltage generated from the element is proportional to the distance from the free end of the cantilever. The calculation is performed using SPICE with the piezoelectric thin film (with dimensions of
In case of a tri-axis accelerometer, both-ends-fixed beams are often employed. For beams fixed at both ends, the sign of the stress (
The beam center (
While using output-voltage multiplication using a series connection of piezoelectric elements is a promising technique for piezoelectric MEMS sensors, it is important to estimate the influence of parasitic capacitances in the design stage. To investigate the influence of the parasitic capacitance, piezoelectric elements are modeled as a charge source with a capacitor. The influence of the parasitic capacitance is analytically expressed in Section 2.2. Although the analytical equations are useful to predict the influence of the parasitic capacitances, the model should be incorporated in SPICE for the extensibility, e.g., consideration of leakage and load resistance for energy harvesters. Since the charge source is not included in the standard SPICE library, the simplest model of a piezoelectric capacitance with initial voltage is proposed. In addition, the calculation using the SPICE model has been consistent with the experimental output voltage for the series-connected 8 piezoelectric elements in the previous work [
The demonstrated calculations indicate severe limitations on the output voltage because of the influence of parasitic capacitances. This effect depends on the ratio of the capacitance of the piezoelectric element to the parasitic capacitance. To reduce this influence, reduction of the ratio is one solution,
The proposed technique using SPICE calculations can easily predict the influence of parasitic capacitance without the need for experiments. The areas and locations of the segmented elements for more complicated devices should be designed to maximize the output voltage based on the stress characteristics. In the design of actual devices, the piezoelectric elements should be connected in series by processing the electrodes and depositing the insulation layers. In addition, the fill factor of piezoelectric elements occupying the structure area, locations, and shapes used to load the stress are important. SPICE calculation in the design stage is a powerful tool for such piezoelectric devices.
The influence of the parasitic capacitance on series-connected piezoelectric elements is evaluated using the proposed SPICE calculations. We propose a simple-circuit model for piezoelectric elements to make it applicable to SPICE calculations. SPICE calculation easily estimates the influence of the parasitic capacitance on the output voltage of series-connected piezoelectric elements. The calculation results for series-connected PZT elements subjected to a uniform stress demonstrated the limitation of the output voltage based on the thickness of PZT. It was found that other parasitic capacitances derived from bonding pads and measurement instruments were also influential. By applying the technique to PZT elements located on beams, the design guidelines for series-connected piezoelectric devices have been explained.

I had a nosejob almost a year ago because I had a hump on the bridge and a droopy nose. So I got it done. The bridge looked nice and straight, but the tip was bulbous and upturned, and my columnella was hanging. In my revision rhinoplasty he shaved off bone again (even the tip) and put a material there. So he didn't only work on the tip but the bridge too, why's that?

Test: 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT
Page: [1]
Buying gasoline at $2.50 a gallon sucks. Of course we're talking about the dollars from my wallet. So it was incredible timing that a 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LS Extended Cab hybrid pickup landed on the doorstep. Yep, a true, right off-the-assembly-line, full-size HYBRID American pickup ready to hit the green streets of the San Francisco Bay Area.
But let's set some expectations before we proceed with the review. At the mention of the words hybrid and pickup in the same sentence some of you may have dreams of Toyota's Prius dancing in your heads, but that concept would be incorrectly applied to this particular Silverado.
The fuel-sipping, technological marvel that is the Prius is a 'true' hybrid. That means it has two engines, one electric and one internal combustion, that move the wheels and power the vehicle depending on driving conditions. The Silverado on the other hand is a 'mild' hybrid. It mates a 42-volt electric motor with a 5.3-liter Vortec V8 - the same 295 horsepower / 330 pounds-feet of torque V8 you can find in a traditional Silverado - but this electric motor never turns the wheels. Instead the motor is leveraged to provide juice to internal systems for creature comforts like XM satellite radio and a dual-zoned climate controlled AC while shutting off the gasoline engine at full stops to save on fuel and emissions. As soon as you lift your foot from the brake or apply a light touch to the accelerator the Vortec powers right back up.
With only about 10% better fuel economy than a standard Silverado, the hybrid Silverado's gasoline savings can't come close to matching the relatively astronomical savings of the Prius but it doesn't sacrifice an ounce of utility either versus other full-size pickups the way the Prius does against comparable sedans in its class. In fact you can do a lot more with this truck than you can with the pickup in your driveway, like use its electric motor as a generator to provide 120-volt, 20-amp power for up to 32 hours on a full tank of gas when you run it off the three batteries stowed under its rear bench seat.
An interesting side note: GM recently donated 50 hybrid Silverados after the hurricanes in Florida to help with cleanup efforts so they could be used by recovery crews to run electric chainsaws, refrigerators and air-conditioners in areas without any source of power.
During the week I drove the Silverado it averaged 16.1mpg in mixed driving conditions, traveling an average of 70 miles per day. GM claims an EPA rating of 17 miles-per-gallon in the city and 19 on the highway for the hybrid Silverado while the regular 4WD pickup gets 15mpg in the city and 18 on the highway. In past experience with the standard truck, I've averaged 14.5 to 15 miles-per-gallon, reflecting a real-life noticeable difference in fuel economy between the two versions.
The hybrid option adds a modest premium of $2500.00 to the sticker price of the Silverado (it's around $5000 for a Prius when compared to other cars in its class). The base price started at $30,195 and by the time all the other options and luxury items were added, such as the heavy duty suspension, locking diff rear-axle and heated leather seats, the truck topped out at $37,743.00.
Some of you are probably already whipping out your calculators to see how long it might take to recoup your investment in the hybrid powertrain. This might help. Regular gas in the Bay Area currently sells for up to $2.55 per gallon. With the Silverado hybrid wringing out an average 1.6 miles-per-gallon of gas more than the standard version, you can travel an extra 41.6 miles farther on a tank of gas, gaining you an extra 2.19 gallons of gas on a 26-gallon full tank fill-up. That's a savings of $5.58 per tank. At this rate, it would take 448 fill-ups to break even or 12-1/2 years if you averaged 15,000 miles per year. If gas were to jump to $3.00 per gallon (lord help us!) you could break even in 10.6 years.
So is it worth it? That's up to you to decide but it sure felt good to make even a small contribution towards gaining independence from Mid-East oil while reducing emissions at the same time – if just for a week. Go ahead and drive one if you don't believe me. You will definitely feel superior to the guy sitting next to you at a stoplight with his internal combustion engine idling away while you sit in engine silence with the XM radio cranked up.
And if that's not enough to persuade you, just wait until your power goes out and your neighbors watch you plug your truck in to your house. Priceless.

On the WAN side i configured only the three parameters below. On the
LAN side i have following configuration:
IPv6 Mode: static
IPv6 Address: 2001:470:77:88::1/64
I didn't touch the IPv6 Prefix Delegation.
I took a /64 Subnet, the /48 Subnet is needed if you are using more
than one subnet on the LAN side.
I've configured anything else. I suppose that you don't need to set a
default gateway for IPv6 because monowall routes all IPv6 traffic
except the LAN subnet through the tunnel.
- What version of monowall are you running?
- Is the tunnel between your monowall and he.net established?
- What is listed on "Tunnel Details" on he.net?
- Do you have a public IPv4 on your WAN side of monowall?
If the tunnel is established try to run test-ipv6.com. I had some
troubles with MTU.

Windows 7 Passes Windows XP in Just Two Years to Become Top OS
Jason Mick

Windows 7 is the new king of the OS market, passing Windows XP.
(Source: Take Two Interactive)
Microsoft hopes to follow up resounding success with slick Windows 8
StatCounter, a top market analytics firm,
recently announced
that Microsoft's Windows 7 had attained a milestone accomplishment, surpassing Windows XP to become the most used operating system in the world.
While "market gurus" and financial pen pushers
tend to dwell on
Microsoft Corp.'s (
) recent misses, they tend to miss that in the operating systems business, the company is relishing the
greatest sales success in its history
. Selling faster than any other version of Windows -- or any other operating system in the history of the world, for that matter -- Windows 7 soared to a 40.21 percent (appr.) installation rate in under 2 years, bumping the much beloved Windows XP to second place (38.64 percent).
Windows 7's success was bred of one of the company's
most maligned efforts
to date, Windows Vista. Vista, launched in late 2006, tried unsuccessfully to replace the popular five-year -old XP. Many of its biggest problems were due to issues outside Microsoft's control -- including glitchy support peripheral driver support from its hardware partners. Other issues -- like the bloated memory and processes footprint -- were certainly pinned solely on Microsoft.
But for the shortcomings of Vista, it debuted many of the features including the gaudy Aero graphical interface, which would reinvent Windows. They just needed a polished package.
That package arrived with Windows 7. The biggest story of this operating system came well before launch, with Microsoft
giving away millions of free beta copies
in the largest OS beta test in world history. The builds had their issues and could be buggy at times -- but customers understood this -- after all, they were using a test product. And the innovative approach yielded great rewards. Microsoft
caught over 2,000 bugs
during the test cycle and used its telemetrics to drastically slash the processor and memory footprint to the point where the new OS could be
run on a lowly Pentium II
Microsoft also benefited from the learning experience of Vista, warning hardware partners
not to dare pull a Vista
, when it came to driver support. The crackdown paid off. By launch time it was relatively rare to find a incompatible peripheral.
The new face of Windows
launched Oct. 22, 2009
, to much excitement. Lean and stable in performance, familiar yet more stylish graphically, Windows 7 managed to pass its predecessor in nine months (July 2010). It sold 240 million licenses in its first year, according to market research firm Gartner, Inc. (
Today it has sold 450 million licenses. And that total is expected to rise to 635 million by the year's end, with 94 percent of new PCs currently shipping with Windows 7.
Looking ahead Microsoft is eyeing a fall launch for Windows 8. The new operating system has a tough act to follow, given the mega-success of Windows 7. But Microsoft -- about to enter its 37th year -- continues to show it has some tricks up its sleeve. With Windows 8 it will add
support for ARM architectures CPUs
, opening the gates to a host of power-savvy system-on-a-chip driven designs.
And Windows 8 will also
add the vibrant Metro UI
found on Microsoft Windows Phone line. Developers will be able to create their own chic animated Metro UI tiles, bringing a new level of touch-friendly and visually striking interaction to end users.
And with its market of over 1 billion Windows PCs at stake, Microsoft isn't about to take any chances with stability or performance. It recently
launched a public preview test build
to work out the various bugs in the trial build. And it has
cut the memory footprint and number of processes
from the already lean Windows 7, despite running built-in antimalware protection and Metro UI for the first time.
Whether Windows 8 turns out to be a hit or miss in sales, Microsoft can take comfort in what it learned in the Vista-Win7 arc -- that even a "failed" effort can breed a new market leader. But for now the story is Windows 7, and it seems only appropriate to conclude by honoring Windows 7's accomplishment with a quote from
a familiar Windows video game character
-- "Hail to the king, baby!"
"Can anyone tell me what MobileMe is supposed to do?... So why the f*** doesn't it do that?" -- Steve Jobs
